The Integrated Waterbird Management and Monitoring programme (IWMM) represents one of the few attempts to monitor migrating waterbirds across entire flyways using targeted local surveys. This dataset included 13,208,785 waterfowl (eight Anas species) counted during 28,000 surveys at nearly 1,000 locations across the eastern United States between autumn 2010 and spring 2013 and was used to evaluate potential predictors of waterfowl abundance at the wetland scale. Mixed-effects, loglinear models of local abundance were built for the Atlantic and Mississippi flyways during spring and autumn migration to identify factors relating to habitat structure, forage availability, and migration timing that influence target dabbling duck species abundance. Results indicated that migrating dabbling ducks responded differently to environmental factors. While the factors identified demonstrated a high degree of importance, they were inconsistent across species, flyways and seasons. Furthermore, the direction and magnitude of the importance of each covariate group considered here varied across species. Given our results, actionable policy recommendations are likely to be most effective if they consider species-level variation within targeted taxonomic units and across management areas. The methods implemented here can easily be applied to other contexts, and serve as a novel investigation into local-level population patterns using data from broad-scale monitoring programmes. ©2015 Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust.",,100-120,,,65,,Wildfowl,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust,,,,abundance; Anas; Anatidae; Atlantic Ocean; Aves; Conservation; data set; environmental factor; integrated approach; Integrated waterbird management and monitoring; migration; migratory species; Mississippi; Modelling; population migration; Populations; protected area; United States; waterfowl; Waterfowl,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Such truncation can push a harvested species' size distribution into classes most vulnerable to gape-limited predation, such that predator-prey dynamics might affect the rate of recovery from fishing. Understanding this rate of recovery is crucial to adaptive management of no-take reserves and fisheries closures. We used a 2-species size-structured model to examine how gape-limited predation alters post-harvest recovery for 3 example prey species, viz. cod, haddock, and whiting. We found little difference in recovery patterns of prey abundance and size structure between systems with gape-limited generalist predation and those with no size-dependent predation. However, gape-limited obligate predation can lead to fluctuations, with transient declines, that delay recovery to the pre-harvest equilibrium for both biomass and mean size due to a time lag in predator recovery. Fluctuating recovery dynamics under obligate predation were most likely for predators that experienced greater declines due to prey loss during harvest and for slow-growing prey with an adult size refuge. We conclude that through these delays, the presence of a strong dynamically linked predator can alter the expec - tations of the time scale for different recovery metrics used in adaptive management. © Inter-Research 2017.",,127-143,,,564,,Mar.

The replacement of its natural environments by productive uses has caused the numerical retraction of species such as the capybara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris), which inhabits its wetlands. The biological and ecological aspects of this species have been scarcely studied in the province of Buenos Aires. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to estimate the relative, real abundance, density, population size; and determine the structure of the population, the pattern of activity of the individuals in the two lagoons present in the protected natural area “El Morejón”, Campana, Buenos Aires. For this purpose, transects of traces and camera traps were made in the four seasons, throughout 2014. Despite being immersed in an urbanized and industrialized area, a larger population size than expected was obtained. An average of 15 individuals in Laguna 1 and 154 in 2 was estimated, in estimated areas of use of 3 and 10 ha, respectively. The largest number of individuals was observed during winter, while fall, spring and summer showed the smallest. The differences may be associated with the alimentary activity.

The objective of this paper is to highlight and to provide a deeper understanding on how marine ecotourism activity may contribute to the implementation of an integrated management of an MPA by taking as a case study the implementation of UWTs in Taza National Park (TNP) in Algeria. For this purpose, the methodology concerns a mixed-method (qualitative and quantitative) based on interviews, survey and document analysis of the implementation process of the UWTs. The main results were grouped into five (5) themes: stakeholders’ engagement, management model of the UWT, capacity building, UWT as a management tool and legal framework. The obtained results have validated the hypothesis that these UWTs could contribute to the good governance of the future MPA, in particular by delegating their management to diving clubs, contributing to local stakeholders’ capacity building, and improving the communication between them.

A database was assembled from 272 published and unpublished bird lists, and this was supplemented with records extracted from a systematic search of the primary ornithological literature. In excess of 7 000 records were located. The original forest avifauna (just before the impact of European settlers became pronounced) consisted of 112 breeding species (81 land, 31 water). Salient characteristics of this avifauna include: only 1 species is confined (as a breeding species) to the primaeval forest ecosystem; 53 species occur throughout the forests; 32 and 13 species are restricted to its eastern or southern portions respectively; most species occur extensively outside of the forests (66 species to the west, north, east and south; 33 species to the west, north and east); 52 per cent of landbird species are insectivores; about 20 per cent of the landbird fauna migrates from the forest in varying degrees in winter; 67 per cent of landbird species nest in the overstorey or understorey; and landbirds in streamside forests occur at higher densities than in upland forests. The distribution of 5 species - Leipoa ocellata (Malleefowl), Cacatua pastinator (Western long-billed corella), Atrichornis clamosus (Noisy scrub-bird), Falcunculus frontatus (Crested shrike-tit) and Rallus pectoralis (Lewin's rail) - is discussed in detail, with new or neglected information being provided. The landbird fauna of the primaeval forest is impoverished relative to elsewhere in the South West Land Division, particularly the region now known as the wheatbelt. The forests of south-west Western Australia have only about half of the number of bird species present in a similar-sized, comparable area in south-east Australia. The south-west forest avifauna is more similar to that present in the Mount Lofty Ranges (South Australia) than to the forest avifaunas of New South Wales or Tasmania. At local scales (1-100 ha), however, the number of landbird species present is similar in all forests in southern mainland Australia (20-25 breeding species). Overall density of bird populations in jarrah and karri forests is about one half of that in comparable forests in south-east Australia. Disturbances caused by European settlement have resulted in 4 species present in the primal forests contracting in geographical range, 2 species becoming extinct, and more than 90 species benefiting from provision of new habitats. Forest management has had limited impact on biodiversity and total abundance of birds. Prescribed burning under moist soil conditions has no impact on bird species richness in jarrah forest, but increases bird species richness in karri forest for 3-6 years. Total abundance of birds increases in both types of forest after prescribed burning. Planned burning under dry soil conditions increases both bird species richness and total abundance of birds. Wildfire reduces bird species richness. All of these changes are temporary. Thinning of jarrah forest does not change bird species richness, whereas cutting to gaps increases bird species richness. Clearfelling of karri forest initially reduces bird species richness; 12 years later about 85 per cent of the avifauna in mature stands is present in regrowth karri forest. Those species dependent on large hollows for nesting are unlikely to nest in unthinned regrowth forest younger than about 120 years. Open-cut mining for bauxite has a severe initial impact on bird species richness, but following rehabilitation there is a rapid return of bird species, with 85 per cent of species present before mining being recorded after 5 years. Species requiring large hollows for nesting cannot, however, nest in rehabilitated sites for many decades. The most severe, long term reduction in local bird species richness and total abundance is caused by dieback disease and by permanent removal of forest as in agriculture, urbanization, damming of rivers, and plantations of pine. However, an additional 75 species (51 land, 24 water) have been recorded within the forests following clearing for farming and towns. Of these species, 23 (17 land, 6 water) now breed, but only two of them (Aquila morphnoides Little eagle, Dacelo novaeguineae Laughing kookaburra) breed in forest. The policies and procedures in place to mitigate the impact of humans on the forest bird fauna and to promote the conservation of bird species are summarized. These include an extensive mosaic of protected areas (national parks, nature reserves, forest along roads, rivers and streams), a structural goal of 40 per cent of the forest being maintained at the mature or senescent stage, the retention of habitat trees for species dependent on hollows for nesting, and spatially and temporally diversified use of fire.",,1-176,,SUPPL. 5,3,,CALMScience,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,abundance; anthropogenic effect; Australia; avifauna; community composition; physical disturbance; spatial distribution,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

While ecosystem-based management (EBM) emphasizes the protection of all species in the environment, the weakest stock often dominates management attention. We use data before and after the implementation of large spatial closures in a North Pacific trawl fishery to show how closures designed for red king crab protection spurred dramatic increases in Pacific halibut bycatch due to both direct displacement effects and indirect effects from adaptations in fishermen's targeting behavior. We identify aspects of the ecological and economic context of the fishery that contributed to these surprising behaviors, noting that many multispecies fisheries are likely to share these features. Our results highlight the need either to anticipate the behavioral adaptations of fishermen across multiple species in reserve design, a form of implementation error, or to design management systems that are robust to these adaptations. Failure to do so may yield patterns of fishing effort and mortality that undermine the broader objectives of multispecies management and potentially alter ecosystems in profound ways. © 2012 by the Ecological Society of America.",,762-777,,3,22,,Ecol.

It is endangered due to its excessive exploitation as a source of exotic food and the degradation of its habitat. The gazette of marine parks in Sabah is a positive modern conservation effort to reduce threats on endangered marine species especially those found in the northern part of Sabah. Integral to the conservation of giant clams within those marine parks is the appreciation of indigenous knowledge of once known sea gypsies i.e. the Bajau people. Current conservation methods at several sites in Sabah's marine park had shown several challenges, which circulate tension among the economics of local communities. To explore the possibility of appreciating indigenous knowledge into the conservation of giant clams, a scientific study with the objective of documenting traditional consumption method of the Bajau people was carried out. Direct observations and interviews on the local people were conducted, while descriptive statistics were used to analyse all collected data. Finding of this study shows the existence of traditional ecology knowledge (TEK) and traditional management among Bajau people pertinent to the conservation of Kima.

Using a Tabu search algorithm, we determined which area would accommodate the greatest number of biodiversity targets within the smallest area possible. The selected conservation patches were investigated for their connectivity and compactness using landscape composition and configuration metrics. In addition, we applied redundancy analysis (RDA) to determine the relationship between conservation targets and landscape parameters such as land use/cover types, and species richness. The results indicated that the existing protected area network is insufficient to attain conservation goals in Hamedan Province, Iran. The landscape metrics analysis revealed that patches with more contiguity, compaction, and fractal dimension hold a higher conservation value and RDA showed a clear relation between landscape metrics and conservation targets.

LAC framework has a broad applicability to complex tourism setting such as marine protected areas where development of measurable objectives defining desired wilderness and the identification of management actions to provide overall quality enjoyment of tourism are possible while preserving the fragile ecosystems of coral reefs. This is considered a science-based ecosystem approach which is viable, cost-effective, time saving and is based mainly on scientific data of a sensitive ecosystem. This integrated approach with its intensity may fulfil the possibility of identifying the actual limits of acceptable change and the designing of implementation actions for our depleting resource.. © 2016 Penerbit Universiti Sains Malaysia.",,79-107,,,23,,Kemanusiaan,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Penerbit Universiti Sains Malaysia,,,,Hydroacoustic signal classification; Limits of acceptable change; Natural marine resource heritage; Optical remote sensing models; Reef conservation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

By analyzing Landsat satellite images from 1985 to 2022 and their relation to rainfall patterns, we found significant impacts of climatic variables on vegetation coverage, particularly after 1990. Increased drought seasons correlated with changes in annual temperature, dew point, and soil temperature. Vegetation growth depended not only on rainfall amount but also on the number of rainfall events and accumulation. Optimal rainfall events per year ranged from 10 to 15, with 70 mm being the threshold for healthy vegetation growth. However, the probability of rainfall events over 80 mm was less than 5%, while low rainfall seasons (1–17 mm) were more likely (90–99% chance). Additionally, vegetation cover varied between protected sites, indicating the complexity of arid lands influenced by factors like topography and soil type. These findings suggest a continued decrease in vegetation coverage, leading to more drought seasons and impacting water and food security. We recommend further research on supplementary irrigation to support native species, understand their seasonal growth stages, and better comprehend soil-plant-water connections and water requirements. This study's findings will also inform strategies for managing water resources in protected areas and help in designing policies aimed at mitigating the impacts of climate change on Qatar's fragile desert ecosystems. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,225,,J.

Properly designed MPA networks can circumvent such limitations due to their potential synergistic positive effects, but this crucial step is frequently obstructed by lack of baseline ecological information. In this paper, we use systematic conservation planning on European Nature Information System coastal habitat information available for Portugal to demonstrate how an ecologically coherent nation-wide MPA network can be designed. We used the software Marxan to obtain near optimal solutions for each of three pre-determined conservation targets (10%, 30% and 50% protection) while maintaining the cost of including conservation units as low as possible. Marxan solutions were subsequently optimized with MinPatch by keeping each MPA above a minimum size that reflects the existing information on habitat use by some key marine fishes. Results show that 10% protection for all habitats would only require a relatively small increase in the number (from 6 to 10) and area (from 479 km2 to 509 km2) of already existing MPAs in mainland Portugal whereas substantial increases would be required to achieve the 50% target.

Marxan was used to provide a number of near-optimal solutions considering different levels of protection for the various conservation features and different costs. These solutions were compared with the existing no-take area of the LSMP. Information on 11 habitat types and distribution models for 3 of the most important species for the local artisanal fisheries was considered. The human activities with the highest economic and ecological impact in the study area (commercial and recreational fishing and scuba diving) were used as costs. The results show that the existing no-take area is actually located in the best area. However, the no-take area offers limited protection to vagile fish and covers a very small proportion of some of the available habitats.

A large number of empirical studies have focused on their effects on reef fish populations. Yet, few studies have looked at their effectiveness on semelparous species such as cephalopods, in spite of their commercial importance in many coastal regions across the globe. In this study we combine behavioural (biotelemetry) and demographic (experimental fishing) data to understand the effects of the Luiz Saldanha Marine Park (LSMP) on local populations of cuttlefish, Sepia officinalis. We used a beyond-BACI design to analyze the possible effect of the implementation of a no-take area on the abundance and biomass of this species and acoustic telemetry data to assess its site fidelity and movements within the study area. Results indicate that there was no detectable effect of the implementation of the no-take area on the abundance or biomass of cuttlefish. We found evidence that acoustically tagged adult cuttlefish leave the reserve a few days or weeks after tagging. The fact that cuttlefish have low site fidelity inside the reserve and large movements across and beyond the study area explains why there is no increase in the population inside the MPA. These results suggest that small coastal marine reserves such as the LSMP are not effective in providing long term protection to cuttlefish populations and, probably, those of other short-lived, highly mobile cephalopods. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.",,196-201,,,147,,Fish.

In-depth interviews were used to explore the perceptions of local and expert stakeholders about positive and negative aspects of MPA establishment. This demonstrated how differing approaches have led to varying degrees of MPA effectiveness. From the community-based MPA, several key ingredients for effective MPA establishment were identified, including engaging and empowering local communities, clear definition of goals, visible MPA outputs and community enforcement based on high levels of support and peer group pressure. However, in a context of complex marine resource use, the limitations of community-based initiatives prevent them from achieving broad ecosystem conservation goals.

The study focused on Corvo Island, which includes the largest coastal MPA in the Azores Archipelago, yet remains without a current management plan. Evidence of a strong ocean-oriented cultural identity, with a clear gender dichotomy in the patterns of marine and coastal use, was found. Participants recognized the strategic value of the marine environment for the island's economy, and strategies to promote the sustainable use of marine resources based on local values and views were suggested. There was a widespread perception of declining species abundance, ecological unbalances caused by biodiversity loss, and significant changes from the status quo with regards to the maritime environment. This was reflected in a common recognition of marine ecosystem vulnerability, yet the local community and stakeholders presented different views on what the main threats were. In any case, we found strong local support for marine conservation initiatives, particularly MPAs. However, stakeholders differed in their views on MPA goals and outcomes, reflecting negative perceptions on the government's capacity to manage the Corvo MPA.

The area is considered by UNESCO as Biosphere reserve and is protected. Several development options have been studied to develop the gas reserves from existing Artificial Island with a minimum impact to the environment. Geological and reservoir simulation compositional models have been prepared to optimize the development plan, identify the minimum number of wells, target rates in order to maximize the gas recovery and sustain the gas plateau rate as long as possible. Building these models was a challenge due to the lack of 3D seismic data and the limited production data from the appraisal well. Due to the sensitivity of the area, the main challenges of the project implementation are the impact on the environment during drilling phase and the facilities construction and its operation. The required refurbishment of the existing island and access channel to the island was a concern that was studied. Drilling of 10 to 12 closely clustered directional deviated gas wells from one existing artificial island in the centre of the field into a High Pressure and High Temperature, high H2S (14-24%) and deep reservoirs environment is also a big challenge. To effectively drain the entire reservoir from the island, the rigs should be capable to drill more than 25,000 ft extended reach deviated wells. Reducing the impact on this sensitive environment was the major concern; hence an HSEA study has been carried out to develop the mitigation plans. The possibility of drilling using more than one rig simultaneously on the island to deliver gas on time has been studied to minimize the duration of the drilling operation and associated risks. Special completion materials for these extreme environments were also studied. Material selection for different well types/conditions has been carried out.

This deterioration is expected to worsen, particularly in remote high-altitude regions like the Himalayas, which are home to diverse flora and fauna, including many mountainous ungulates. Unfortunately, many of these species lack adaptive strategies to cope with novel climatic conditions. The Red Goral (Naemorhedus baileyi) is a cliff-dwelling species classified as “Vulnerable” by the IUCN due to its small population and restricted range extent. This species has the most restricted range of all goral species, residing in the temperate mountains of northeastern India, northern Myanmar, and China. Given its restricted range and small population, this species is highly threatened by climate change and habitat disruptions, making habitat mapping and modeling crucial for effective conservation. This study employs an ensemble approach (BRT, GLM, MARS, and MaxEnt) in species distribution modeling to assess the distribution, habitat suitability, and connectivity of this species, addressing critical gaps in its understanding. The findings reveal deeply concerning trends, as the model identified only 21,363 km2 (13.01%) of the total IUCN extent as suitable habitat under current conditions. This limited extent is alarming, as it leaves the species with very little refuge to thrive. Furthermore, this situation is compounded by the fact that only around 22.29% of this identified suitable habitat falls within protected areas (PAs), further constraining the species’ ability to survive in a protected landscape. The future projections paint even degraded scenarios, with a predicted decline of over 34% and excessive fragmentation in suitable habitat extent. In addition, the present study identifies precipitation seasonality and elevation as the primary contributing predictors to the distribution of this species. Furthermore, the study identifies nine designated transboundary PAs within the IUCN extent of the Red Goral and the connectivity among them to highlight the crucial role in supporting the species’ survival over time. Moreover, the Dibang Wildlife Sanctuary (DWLS) and Hkakaborazi National Park are revealed as the PAs with the largest extent of suitable habitat in the present scenario. Furthermore, the highest mean connectivity was found between DWLS and Mehao Wildlife Sanctuary (0.0583), while the lowest connectivity was observed between Kamlang Wildlife Sanctuary and Namdapha National Park (0.0172). The study also suggests strategic management planning that is a vital foundation for future research and conservation initiatives, aiming to ensure the long-term survival of the species in its natural habitat. © 2024 by the authors.",,,,9,13,,Biology,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,artiodactyla; ecological niche; global warming; international conservation; threatened species; transboundary PAs,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This represents the most complete report of a quillwort translocation globally. A new population of I. malinverniana was established in a protected area in Lombardy (northern Italy) after several years of investigation of the ecology, biology and genetics of this species. The selected site was restored before the trial release in March 2016 of 20 individuals of the target species. Although modelling for the selection of suitable release sites for the target species indicated that the selected site was not suitable for the species, I. malinverniana exhibited a survival of 60% 1 year after reintroduction. This trial indicates that with very rare species, experimental trialling of a few individuals can test the feasibility of translocation at a larger scale. Although the model was constructed using a wide variety of ecological and phenological parameters, it was unreliable because of intrinsically low statistical power, which is a limitation of modelling associated with very rare species. Although mature spores were dispersed in autumn 2016, sporelings have not yet been observed. Ultimately, reintroduction of I. malinverniana will rely on the evidence of self-recruitment; however, this translocation effort promoted understanding of ecological tolerance and facilitated focused conservation management. For instance, a protocol for in vitro reproduction of the species was successfully developed, resulting in long-term survival of ex situ collections that exist in two botanical gardens in Pavia and Turin. Considering that many isoëtid species are threatened worldwide, the techniques applied here may have broad applicability to other endangered species.

Low-latitude populations of cold-adapted plants are important because they may harbour the combination of alleles that foster persistence in a warmer climate. Consequently, identification of areas where arctic-alpine, circumpolar and circumboreal species reach the low-latitude ends of their distribution will present a unique opportunity to uncover processes that shaped current biogeographical patterns, as well as prepare for future scenarios. Here, we identify 35 main marginal population hotspots (19 and 16 areas in North America and Europe, respectively) of 183 plant taxa. These hotspots represent areas where southern marginal populations of cold-adapted species co-occur. The identification of hotspots was based on geographic overlap of southernmost locations of the target species, in a 50 × 50 km grid. With a threshold of two species in a single grid cell or in two contiguous cells, the analysis revealed that hotspots are in most cases located in the southern portion of major mountain chains. However, hotspots also occur in lowland areas at high latitudes (Fennoscandia, Alaska, Hudson Bay) which do not necessarily correspond to known cold- or warm-stage refugia (e.g. Alps). Rockies and Sierra Nevada both in California and Spain, Apennines, and the southern Scandes, maintain their hotspot status even with more stringent cut-off thresholds (>3 and >5 species per cell group). From a conservation point of view, our analysis reveals that only a small portion of the hotspots are currently included within protected areas. We discuss the importance of marginal population hotspots to future research on climate change and, finally, outline how conservation strategies can capitalize on the knowledge gained from studying climate change effects on cold-adapted plants. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,977-985,,5,45,,J.

In 2010, the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) included a target of 17% protection for inland waters, yet there has been no meaningful way of measuring progress toward that target. Defining and evaluating “protection” is especially complicated for rivers because their integrity is intimately linked to impacts in their upstream catchments. A new generation of global hydrographic data now enables a high-resolution, standardized assessment of how upland activities may be propagated downstream. Here, we develop and apply, globally, a river protection metric that integrates both local and upstream catchment protection. We found that “integrated” river protection is highly variable across geographies and river size classes and in most basins falls short of the 17% CBD target. Around the world, about 70% of river reaches (by length) have no protected areas in their upstream catchments, and only 11.1% (by length) achieve full integrated protection. The average level of integrated protection is 13.5% globally, yet the majority of the world's largest basins show averages below 10%. Within basins, gaps are particularly severe for larger rivers. © 2016 The Authors. Conservation Letters published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.",,383-393,,4,10,,Conserv.

Most coral reefs around the world are threatened by a myriad of local stressors, including overfishing, destructive fishing, untreated sewage, agriculture effluents (nutrients and pesticides), and siltation due to deforestation. Reefs will not survive the severe effects of this plethora of stressors while waiting until we mitigate climate change. In order to safeguard reefs, we need to adopt a new narrative - ""there are diverse ways in which we can improve the chances of saving coral reefs"" - by acting now to: (i) improve their local protection and marine protected area networks, (ii) alleviate their critical local stressors, (iii) restore degraded and damaged reefs, and (iv) promote reef resilience and adaptation (e.g. adaptation networks, assisted evolution) to the changing conditions, notably climate change effects.

Simplified FVC methods have been developed for citizen scientists to enable them to monitor fish populations in MPAs. However, MPA monitoring programs led by local stakeholders remain rare and difficult to sustain due to technical barriers related to FVC data management. Here, we describe and evaluate a novel online app called MPA-FishMApp, which we developed to help stakeholders of MPAs that protect coral reefs in the Philippines efficiently store, analyze, and visualize FVC data. MPA-FishMApp is coupled to a simplified FVC method wherein the observer records only 21 reef fish species groups during surveys. The app provides a simple data entry interface, cloud storage, and algorithms to estimate fish density and biomass. Spatial and temporal trends in fish density and biomass can be instantaneously visualized in the app based on relative importance to fisheries. Field testing suggested that the MPA-FishMApp methodology (simplified FVC and app) is sensitive enough to detect qualitative patterns showing differences in density and biomass that may develop between MPAs and fished sites, especially in fishes that are highly important to fisheries. However, users must have sufficient training and experience in simplified FVC to produce reliable data. MPA-FishMApp may help reverse the lack of monitoring in MPAs across the Philippines and offers an accessible, transparent, and auditable venue for collaboration between citizen scientists and professional scientists. © 2022 The authors.

Although evidence for spillover has increased recently, mechanisms inducing movement of adult fish from reserve to fished areas are poorly understood. While density-dependent export is a reasonable expectation, given that density of fish targeted by fisheries should increase over time inside well-protected no-take reserves, no study to date has demonstrated development of the process. This study provides evidence consistent with density-dependent export of a planktivorous reef fish, Naso vlamingii, from a small no-take reserve (protected for 20 years) at Apo Island, Philippines. Mean density of N. vlamingii increased threefold inside the reserve between 1983 and 2003. Density approached an asymptote inside the reserve after 15-20 years of protection. Modal size in the reserve increased from 35 to 45 cm total length (TL) over 20 years of protection. In addition, both density and modal size increased outside the reserve close to (200-300 m), but not farther from (300-500 m), the reserve boundary over the 20 years of reserve protection. Movement of adult N. vlamingii across the boundaries of the reserve was rare. Aggressive interactions among adult N. vlamingii were significantly higher (by 3.7 times) inside than outside the reserve. This suggests that density-dependent interactions were more intense inside the reserve. When interacting adults differed in size, the larger individual usually chased away the smaller one. Furthermore, the mean size of adult fish captured by experimental fishing decreased from 35-cm TL 50-100 m outside the boundary, to 32-cm TL 250-300 m outside the boundary. This represents some of the best evidence available for density-dependent home-range relocation of fish from a no-take reserve. © 2005 by the Ecological Society of America.",,1798-1812,,5,15,,Ecol.

Apart from human activities, climate change is the major threat to global biodiversity during the 21st century. Our study aims to determine the impact of climate change on pteridophytes in Togo. Methods – Based on 2865 occurrences of pteridophytes covering West Africa and grouped into 5 ecological groups, current and future distributions of pteridophytes were modelized using Maxent. The conservation capacity of Togolese protected areas for these plants was assessed. Key results – Our results show that 9.81% of the country can shelter simultaneously all groups of pteridophytes. Precipitations of the driest periods, isothermality and temperature seasonality are the climatic variables which constrain the most their niche in West Africa and particularly in Togo. Apart from thermophilic taxa whose climatically suitable niche is expected to nearly double by 2070, niche of all other group should be drastically restricted in Togo. Only protected areas in the southern third of Togo Mountains would guarantee current and future climatic niches for pteridophytes in the country. Conclusions – Southern Togo Mountains will probably constitute a climatic refugium for Pteridophytes in Togo. However, the small extent of protected areas in this part of the country would be a source of vulnerability for these plants. © 2020 Komla Elikplim Abotsi, Kouami Kokou, Germinal Rouhan, Vincent Deblauwe.",,22-32,,1,153,,Plant Ecol.

Amphibians have high sensitivity to environmental degradation and changes in temperature and humidity. Thus, the expected climatic changes by the end-of-century (EOC 2100) may cause local or complete extinction of some species. Here, we address the effects of climate change on genetic and phylogeographical diversity, together with the geographical distribution of the South American treefrog Scinax squalirostris Lutz, 1925. Furthermore, we assess how protected areas will conserve its genetic variation. Location: South America. Methods: We combined Ecological Niche Modelling and genetic simulations to predict the effects of climate change on the geographical distribution, genetic diversity, structure and phylogeographical diversity of Scinax squalirostris, using two scenarios of CO2 emission. We also performed a spatial analysis to investigate the effectiveness of the current Protected Areas (PAs) to preserve the species’ genetic and phylogeographical diversity. Results: Scinax squalirostris' geographical range will potentially increase in the future due to the expansion of suitable areas towards its southern distribution, despite the shrinking of suitable areas in the northern part of its current distribution. Besides the shifts in suitable areas, our findings point to a genetic homogenization across the geographical range of S. squalirostris due to the displacement and loss of genetic ancestry clusters. Although existing PAs are conserving the current genetic diversity, they conserve less phylogeographical diversity than expected by chance. Scinax squalirostris may shift its distribution into areas with lower number of PAs, compromising its future conservation. Main conclusions: Climate change will potentially increase S. squalirostris range size, however, not towards regions where most of the current established PAs are located, hence driving to homogenization and loss of genetic diversity, and leading to a gap of conservation within PAs. © 2021 The Authors.

This paper uses the “Ocean grabbing framework” to assess the process preceding the announcement of a LSMPA in Rapa Nui, its rejection, the reformulation of the process and the ultimately successful establishment of a Multiple Uses Marine Protected Area (MUMPA). The assessment focused on: a) the quality of governance, b) the effects on livelihoods and human security, and 3) the potentially interlinked social and ecological impacts. The rejection of the initial LSMPA process was associated with lack of transparency, inadequate participatory processes, and lack of accountable decisionmaking all of which could have had adverse social and ecological outcomes and turned the LSMPA into an “ocean grab”. Factors that contributed were associated to inappropriate use of financing, political lobbying and pressure exerted by a NGO that tried to deploy its agenda disconnected from local indigenous interests. In a major turning point stemming from the vigorous local rejection of the initial LSMPA, a bottomup process led by a local institution (CODEIPA) and other Rapanui organizations, coordinated with the Chilean Government, resulted in an unprecedented participatory process ending in the creation of the largest MPA in the Americas, that will be comanaged by Rapanui people and the Chilean Government. It is hoped that the results of this analysis can contribute to the development of good practices in marine conservation worldwide, maximizing marine conservation outcomes and avoiding undesirable social and ecological impacts. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,198,,Ocean Coast.

Particularly, this fishery is well known for incidentally catching the critically endangered vaquita. However, its impacts on the larger ecosystem are understudied. For decades local experts and non-governmental organizations had reported large amounts of in-use and derelict fishing gear used for totoaba in the Upper Gulf of California (UGoC), but the issued remained unstudied. Six of the co-authors participated directly in gear retrieval efforts and their experience is recorded here. We also performed a literature review to collect a) information on the history, dimension, root causes and impacts of gear discarding practices, and b) lessons drawn from the inter-institutional gear recovery effort performed between 2016 and 2020. For this last objective, we used the Inter-Institutional Gap Framework (IIG). By mapping all institutions involved and their relationships, the IIG allows to identify coordination gaps among multi-level institutions. We found that the gear recovery allowed to bridge historical gaps between formal and informal institutions in the UGoC. The results of the gear recovery effort (9.3 tons of intercepted nets within a section of the UGoC) also helped illustrate the large scope of the problem, which seems to be caused by local oceanographic conditions and the fishers’ need to avoid enforcement. Our study provides a first estimation of the size of this problem and adds to a body of literature on the relationship between illegal fisheries and gear discarding. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,147,,Mar.

Recent evidence shows that the incentives that arise from these systems can improve fisheries sustainability. Although research on TURFs has increased in recent years, important questions regarding the social and ecological dynamics underlying their success remain largely unanswered. In particular, in order to create new successful TURFs, it is critical to comprehend how fish movement over different distances affects the development of sustainable fishing practices within a TURF. In theory, excessive spillover outside a TURF will generate incentives to overharvest. However, many TURFs have proven successful even when targeted species move over distances far greater than the TURF's size. A common attribute among some of these successful systems is the presence of inter-TURF cooperation arrangements. This raises the question of how different levels and types of cooperation affect the motivations for overharvesting driven by the movement of fish outside the TURF. In this paper, we examine equilibrium yields under different levels of inter-TURF cooperation (from partial to full) and varying degrees of asymmetry across TURFs of both biological capacity and benefit-sharing. We find that partial cooperation can improve yields even with an unequal distribution of shared benefits and asymmetric carrying capacity. However, cooperation arrangements are unstable if the sharing agreement and biological asymmetries are misaligned. Remarkably, we find that asymmetry in the system can lead to the creation of voluntary no-take zones. © 2019 by the Ecological Society of America",,,,1,30,,Ecol.

In addition, it produces a structure utility for the economic development and political progress of the local population, providing a resource for training of the visitors and for preservation. For the last five years, there have been significant initiatives concerning sustainable and environmentally sensitive tourism in Turkey. The National Tourism Strategy is one of these initiatives and its primary objective is to ensure the integration of ecotourism within protected areas. As part of this strategic plan, the Western Black Sea Region is designated as a notable area wherein ecotourism is to be expanded. The Kastamonu-Bartin Kure Mountains National Park (KMNP) stands in the foreground of this region, being one of the major focuses of the strategy. The goal of this discussion is to assess the ecotourism potential of Kastamonu-Bartin KMNP and additionally to provide an orientation for ecotourism activities to be developed for the region. In this regard, the KMNP Buffer Zone-Ulus Region Ecotourism Development Framework has been produced as a recommendation following the results of the study conducted by means of the Ecotourism Opportunity Spectrum (ECOS) method in which the ecotourism potential of twenty (20) villages was evaluated. The study area was divided into two regions in the framework. As a result of employing ECOS, centers of ecotourism were described and identified strong and weak, with weak centers found to be dependent upon strong centers. The results of this study contribute significantly to the assessment of the ecotourism potential for the region studied, and they apply especially to the protected areas and their appropriate development. © 2010 Academic Journals.",,589-599,,8,5,,Afr.

At a landscape scale, these impacts, and biotic responses such as adaptation and migration, will be mediated by spatial heterogeneity in climate and climate change. We examine several aspects of the geography of climate change and their significance for biodiversity conservation. Location: California and Nevada, USA. Methods: Using current climate surfaces (PRISM) and two scenarios of future climate (A1b, 2070-2099, warmer-drier and warmer-wetter), we mapped disappearing, declining, expanding and novel climates, and the velocity and direction of climate change in California and Nevada. We also examined fine-scale spatial heterogeneity in protected areas of the San Francisco Bay Area in relation to reserve size, topographic complexity and distance from the ocean. Results: Under the two climate change scenarios, current climates across most of California and Nevada will shrink greatly in extent, and the climates of the highest peaks will disappear from this region. Expanding and novel climates are projected for the Central Valley. Current temperature isoclines are projected to move up to 4.9 km year-1 in flatter regions, but substantially slower in mountainous areas because of steep local topoclimate gradients. In the San Francisco Bay Area, climate diversity within currently protected areas increases with reserve size and proximity to the ocean (the latter because of strong coastal climate gradients). However, by 2100 of almost 500 protected areas (>100 ha), only eight of the largest are projected to experience temperatures within their currently observed range. Topoclimate variability will further increase the range of conditions experienced and needs to be incorporated in future analyses. Main Conclusions: Spatial heterogeneity in climate, from mesoclimate to topoclimate scales, represents an important spatial buffer in response to climate change, and merits increased attention in conservation planning. © 2010 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,476-487,,3,16,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,abundance; adaptation; biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; BUTTERFLIES; California; climate change; Climate change; climate prediction; climatic heterogeneity; Climatic heterogeneity; COMMUNITIES; conservation; Conservation; conservation planning; DETERMINANTS; environmental assessment; environmental risk; FUTURE; MANAGEMENT; Nevada; PHENOLOGY; population distribution; protected area; protected area networks; Protected area networks; QUALITY; reserve design; RESPONSES; spatial heterogeneity; Spatial heterogeneity; spatial scale; Spatial scale; SPECIES-DIVERSITY; topoclimate; Topoclimate; United States,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The project aims at the conservation and recovery of marine and terrestrial ecosystems, included in the marine SCI (Site of Community Interest) ""Isola dei Cavoli, Serpentara, Punta Molentis e Campulongu"". The habitats selected for the implementation of the project are ""Posidonia beds (Posidonion oceanicae)"", ""Coastal dunes with Juniperus spp."" and ""Wooded dunes with Pinus pinea and/or Pinus pinaster"". They are characterized by a high biodiversity and exclusive vegetal and animal communities and can easily undergo both floristic and faunal changes. Some of the main threats to the site are landscape alteration, the introduction of invasive alien plants, and boat anchoring, which are mainly the result of human activities such as tourism and recreational activities, enhanced by a strong attendance (mostly in summer months). Sea-land integrated actions are therefore needed to achieve the following objectives: (1) to reduce/eliminate the invasive plants; (2) to reduce or to eliminate the mechanical damage from boat anchoring on Posidonia beds; (3) to favour the recovery of the spontaneous autochthonous vegetation; (4) to raise the awareness of the local population and stakeholders; and (5) to share conservation skills among the key decision-making bodies of the territory for the long-term protection of these habitats. Marine concrete actions consist of the positioning of mooring buoys in selected areas to ensure the conservation of Posidonia beds and the restoration of this habitat through naturalistic engineering techniques. Terrestrial concrete actions consist of the eradication of invasive species (Carpobrotus spp., Agave spp., and Acacia spp.) in the priority habitats and restoration through naturalistic engineering techniques. Communication actions use various conventional and multimedia tools including brochures, panels, a role-playing game, and an application/game for mobile phones. Environmental education and awareness-raising activities are addressed to schools and local stakeholders; a good practices manual on the integrated management of the coastal zone is devoted to key territorial players. Bathymetric and biocenotic maps were produced for 700 hectares of seabed; also, the main anthropogenic traces of disturbances were detected. The presence of the invasive alien macro algae C. cylindracea was also registered. The floristic analysis in the coastal dune systems led to the creation of a list with 127 native and 91 alien taxa. Among these, the most invasive species are those belonging to the genera Carpobrotus, Agave, and Acacia; distribution maps of these species in the SCI were created. Germplasm collections led to the acquisition of 40 seed accessions belonging to 14 structural plant species of dune habitats. It was possible to define optimal germination protocols for the selected species, and this was used to produce 30,000 plants for the restoration action. © 2017 Italian Society for Vegetation Science.",,85-95,,,54,,,,,,,,Societa Italiana di Scienza della Vegetazione,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: Plant Sociolo.,,,,Acacia; Agave; algae; Animalia; beach; Beach system; biodiversity; Carpobrotus; Coastal ecosystems; coniferous tree; decision making; endangered species; environmental protection; Eradication; European Union; habitat restoration; Habitat restoration; human activity; implementation process; invasive species; Invasive species; Italy; Juniperus; marine ecosystem; marine environment; Mediterranean; Mediterranean environment; Pinus pinaster; Pinus pinea; Posidonia; prioritization; Priority habitats; project assessment; recovery plan; Sardinia; seagrass,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Plant Sociology,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Despite its environmental importance, the park is under political, economic and demographic pressure. The main aim of our research was to estimate the population's willingness to pay (WTP) for the conservation of MDSP and for the Atlantic Rainforest's remnants in Săo Paulo State as a whole, by means of the contingent valuation method (CVM). The results featured a high incidence of null WTP and of protest votes. Nevertheless, the population is willing to pay US$ 2,113,548.00/year (R$ 7,080,385.00/year) for the conservation of the MDSP (use and existence values), or US$ 60.39 ha/year (R$ 202.30/ha/year). The results indicate that the preservation value is strongly associated to the population's ability to pay, increasing with income levels.

Elephant movements are complex because they are influenced by a wide range of location-specific variables. This study aimed to investigate how elephants move through different human-dominated landscapes in the Chobe District, Botswana. The movements of four female elephants from the Chobe District were studied over a period of 13 months using GPS collars to follow them. Annual home ranges of the elephants were calculated using both the 100% minimum convex polygon (MCP) and 95% fixed kernel (FK) methods. Additionally, general estimating equation models were used to investigate which factors influenced the elephants’ distance moved, both hourly and daily. We found the elephants’ movement behaviour was dependent on the time of day and type of land use: whether agricultural areas, protected areas or wildlife management areas, trophy hunting blocks, and multi-use zones (e.g. game management areas). Overall, all of the elephants had smaller annual home ranges (~450-1,750 km2) than seen in other studies within southern Africa, and there was a difference in seasonal movements, between individuals. Additionally, contrary to previously published studies, the elephants made larger diurnal movements than nocturnal movements. Movements were significantly different between different land-use areas, suggesting that elephants could be developing different strategies to move through differing levels of human disturbance. It is vital for any wildlife management plan that the spatial movements of key conservation species are thoroughly understood, in order to formulate informed management decisions and create an integrated land-use management plan that enables both development and elephant coexistence. © 2021, IUCN - International Union for the Conservation of Nature.

Given their substantial contributions to meeting area-based targets, we review evidence of multiple-use protected areas in meeting global policy goals. We found that multiple-use protected areas can be effective in conserving biodiversity and are more likely to be under equitable governance arrangements than their strict counterparts. Our results show that multiple-use and other protected areas provide important environmental and socio-economic benefits that are needed to achieve the 2030 target.

Yet, these tools rarely guide wholesale declaration of reserve systems in a single time step due to financial and implementation constraints. Rather, incremental scheduling of actions to progressively build reserve networks is required. To ensure this incremental action is guided by the original plan, and thus builds a reserve network that meets all conservation targets, strategic scheduling, and iterative planning is needed. We explore the issue of scheduling conservation actions using the national scale conservation plan for Papua New Guinea (PNG), commissioned by the PNG Conservation and Environment Protection Authority that identifies a comprehensive set of priority areas that meet conservation targets in both the land and sea. As part of the planning process a subset of areas were identified in collaboration as priorities for immediate action—termed areas of interest (AOIs). However, the extent to which targets are met if action stopped after implementing the AOIs is unknown. We test three possible implementation scenarios based on these priority areas to measure target achievement and shortfalls. We then consider how iterative planning would interact with scheduling actions to identify new long-term priorities that will meet missing targets. Our results show that while a large number of conservation targets are met within the AOIs there are shortfalls for protecting threatened and range restricted endemic species. Meeting targets for these would require an updated set of national priorities and an additional 13% of land area compared with if all areas identified in the original assessment were protected in a single time step. This provides important insights into the benefits of strategic scheduling of implementation, as well as the need for capacity to monitor action and update priorities as implementation proceeds. © 2021 The Authors.

We used a fishing community in Kubulau District, Fiji to demonstrate this method. We modelled opportunity costs as a function of food fish abundance and probability of catch, based on gear type and market value of species. Count models (including Poisson, negative binomial and two zero-inflated models) were used to predict spatial abundance of preferred target fish species and were validated against field surveys. A profit model was used to investigate the effect of restricted access to transport on costs to fishers. Spatial distributions of fish within the three most frequently sighted food fish families (Acanthuridae, Lutjanidae, Scaridae) varied, with greatest densities of Lutjanidae and Acanthuridae on barrier forereefs and greatest densities of Scaridae on submerged reefs. Modelled opportunity cost indicated that highest costs to fishers arise from restricting access to the barrier forereefs. We included our opportunity cost model in Marxan, a decision support tool used for MPA design, to examine potential MPA configurations for Kubulau District, Fiji Islands. We identified optimum areas for protection in Kubulau with: (a) the current MPA network locked in place; and (b) a clean-slate approach.

Here we focus on opportunity costs which measure forgone benefits from alternative land uses. Conservation planning studies often use partial estimates of costs, but the extent to which these result in actual efficiencies has not been demonstrated. Our study partitions land costs into three distinct opportunity costs to smallholder agriculture, soybean agriculture and ranching. We demonstrate that opportunity costs to single stakeholder groups can be inaccurate measures of true opportunity costs and can inadvertently shift conservation costs to affect groups of stakeholders disproportionately. Additionally, we examine how spatial correlations between costs as well as target size affect the performance of opportunity costs to single stakeholder groups as surrogate measures of true opportunity costs. We conclude that planning with opportunity costs to single stakeholder groups can result in cost burdens to other groups that could undermine the long-term success of conservation. Thus, an understanding of the spatial distributions of opportunity costs that are disaggregated to groups of stakeholders is necessary to make informed decisions about priority conservation areas.

This approach was designed to be used when management thresholds: must be set for environmental indicators in the face of multiple competing objectives; need to incorporate scientific understanding and value judgments; and will be set by participants with limited modeling experience. We applied our approach to a case study where management thresholds were set for a mat-forming brown alga, Hormosira banksii, in a protected area management context. Participants, including management staff and scientists, were involved in a workshop to test the approach, and set management thresholds to address the threat of trampling by visitors to an intertidal rocky reef. The approach involved trading off the environmental objective, to maintain the condition of intertidal reef communities, with social and economic objectives to ensure management intervention was cost-effective. Ecological scenarios, developed using scenario planning, were a key feature that provided the foundation for where to set management thresholds. The scenarios developed represented declines in percent cover of H. banksii that may occur under increased threatening processes. Participants defined 4 discrete management alternatives to address the threat of trampling and estimated the effect of these alternatives on the objectives under each ecological scenario. A weighted additive model was used to aggregate participants' consequence estimates. Model outputs (decision scores) clearly expressed uncertainty, which can be considered by decision makers and used to inform where to set management thresholds. This approach encourages a proactive form of conservation, where management thresholds and associated actions are defined a priori for ecological indicators, rather than reacting to unexpected ecosystem changes in the future. © 2015, Society for Conservation Biology.",,1411-1422,,5,29,,Conserv.

Within PAME, quantitative approaches to assess biodiversity outcomes are now emerging, where biological monitoring data are directly assessed against quantitative (numerically defined) condition categories (termed quantitative condition assessments). However, more commonly qualitative condition assessments are employed in PAME, which use descriptive condition categories and are evaluated largely with expert judgement that can be subject to a range of biases, such as linguistic uncertainty and overconfidence. Despite the benefits of increased transparency and repeatability of evaluations, quantitative condition assessments are rarely used in PAME. To understand why, we interviewed practitioners from all Australian marine protected area (MPA) networks, which have access to long-term biological monitoring data and are developing or conducting PAME evaluations. Our research revealed that there is a desire within management agencies to implement quantitative condition assessment of biodiversity outcomes in Australian MPAs. However, practitioners report many challenges in transitioning from undertaking qualitative to quantitative condition assessments of biodiversity outcomes, which are hampering progress. Challenges include a lack of agency capacity (staff numbers and money), knowledge gaps, and diminishing public and political support for PAs. We point to opportunities to target strategies that will assist agencies overcome these challenges, including new decision support tools, approaches to better finance conservation efforts, and to promote more management relevant science. While a single solution is unlikely to achieve full evidence-based conservation, we suggest ways for agencies to target strategies and advance PAME evaluations toward best practice. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,183-191,,,198,,J.

Outcome assessment is the final stage of MEE, where conservation outcomes are measured to determine whether management objectives are being achieved. When quantitative monitoring data are available, bestpractice examples of outcome assessments demonstrate that data should be assessed against quantitative condition categories. Such assessments enable more transparent and repeatable integration of monitoring data into MEE, which can promote evidence-based management and improve public accountability and reporting. We interviewed key informants from marine protected area (MPA) management agencies to investigate how scientific data sources, especially long-term biological monitoring data, are currently informing conservation management. Our study revealed that even when long-term monitoring results are available, management agencies are not using them for quantitative condition assessment in MEE. Instead, many agencies conduct qualitative condition assessments, where monitoring results are interpreted using expert judgment only. Whilst we found substantial evidence for the use of long-term monitoring data in the evidence-based management of MPAs, MEE is rarely the sole mechanism that facilitates the knowledge transfer of scientific evidence to management action. This suggests that the first goal of MEE (to enable environmental accountability and reporting) is being achieved, but the second and arguably more important goal of facilitating evidence-based management is not.

It assists in framing decision problems, illustrating the performance of alternatives across criteria, exploring trade-offs, formulating a decision and testing its robustness. This paper provides a structured review of empirical applications of MCDA to nature conservation published in the scientific literature over the last 20 years. The paper aims at taking stock of past experiences, and comparing them with best practices and common pitfalls identified in the literature, to provide recommendations for better MCDA application to conservation. The review follows the structure of a generalized MCDA process consisting of three key stages: (1) decision context and problem structuring, (2) analysis and (3) decision. The search identified 86 papers that describe MCDA applications to a range of topics, including conservation prioritization and planning; protected areas management and zoning; forest management and restoration; and mapping of biodiversity, naturalness and wilder. The results show that, concerning problem structuring, a small percentage of the reviewed MCDA engaged stakeholders other than the authors in identifying alternatives and formulating criteria (15% and 35% respectively). Concerning the analysis, criteria assessment was adequately justified by the authors (47%), at times also by involving other stakeholders (22%). Weighting was performed in almost all applications, whereas criteria aggregation was mostly based on the weighted linear combination (63%). Sensitivity analysis was largely overlooked (57%). Concerning decision, 45% of the articles provided only an overall ranking or suitability of alternatives, while 22% included additional rankings according to specific criterion, and 8% further analyses and clustering of stakeholders’ preferences. The paper concludes by suggesting key elements of successful MCDA applications, including clear construction of the decision context; collaborative identification of alternatives and criteria that reflect the values at stake; adequate justification and communication of the methods for criteria assessment and weighting; reasoned choice of the criteria aggregation method, and comprehensive sensitivity analysis. © 2018 The Authors.

These reef communities have been poorly studied, and efficient conservation actions are urgently needed. The aim of this study was to: (1) examine the spatial distribution of coral assemblages in the lagoon of Tongatapu; (2) determine the degree to which spatial heterogeneity of adult corals is influenced by recruitment processes; and (3) examine the implications of these results in terms of conservation actions. We recorded a total of 37 adult and 28 juvenile coral genera, a mean density of 11.6 adult and 5.5 juvenile colonies m -2, and a dominance of Montipora, Acropora, and Porites. For seven of the 10 dominant genera, spatial patterns of adults were linked to the short-term recruitment pattern history. Despite a reduced diversity and abundance of adult corals in some areas, the lagoon of Tongatapu retains the potential for replenishment through recruitment of young corals. Consequently, we suggest that conservation actions should focus on reducing factors causing coral mortality and maintain suitable conditions for the establishment and growth of juvenile corals, thus increasing the probability that they will reach maturity and participate to the maintenance of local populations. Rather than establishing a large marine protected area, which will almost certainly suffer from a lack of control and poor enforcement, alternative conservation measures could be successfully implemented through the establishment of several small village-based marine reserves, as has been undertaken in other South Pacific islands with promising results. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,5763-5773,,7,185,,Environ.

However, little is known about the composition of plant species on these conservation grasslands or their potential for ethanol production. Our objective was to assess the potential of CRP and other conservation grasslands for biofuel production, describing the relationships of plant species richness and tall native C4 prairie grass abundance with plant chemical composition and the resulting potential ethanol yield. We determined plant species composition and diversity at multiple scales with the modified Whittaker plot technique, aboveground biomass, plant chemical composition, and potential ethanol yield at 34 sites across the major ecological regions of the northeastern USA. Conservation grasslands with higher numbers of plant species had lower biomass yields and a lower ethanol yield per unit biomass compared with sites with fewer species. Thus, biofuel yield per unit land area decreased by 77% as plant species richness increased from 3 to 12.8 species per m 2. We found that, as tall native C4 prairie grass abundance increased from 1.7% to 81.6%, the number of plant species decreased and aboveground biomass per unit land area and ethanol yield per unit biomass increased resulting in a 500% increased biofuel yield per unit land area. Plant species richness and composition are key determinants of biomass and ethanol yields from conservation grasslands and have implications for low-input high-diversity systems.

However, no-take reserves can be rendered ineffective and turned into 'paper parks' through poor compliance and weak enforcement of reserve regulations. Long-term monitoring is thus essential to assess the effectiveness of marine reserves in meeting conservation and management objectives. This study documents the present state of the 15-year old no-take zone (NTZ) of South El Ghargana within the Nabq Managed Resource Protected Area, South Sinai, Egyptian Red Sea. Previous studies credited willing compliance by the local fishing community for the increased abundances of targeted fish within the designated NTZ boundaries compared to adjacent fished or take-zones. We compared benthic habitat and fish abundance within the NTZ and the adjacent take sites open to fishing, but found no significant effect of the reserve. Instead, the strongest evidence was for a simple negative relationship between fishing pressure and distance from the closest fishing village. The abundance of targeted piscivorous fish increased significantly with increasing distance from the village, while herbivorous fish showed the opposite trend. This gradient was supported by a corresponding negative correlation between the amount of discarded fishing gear observed on the reef and increasing distance from the village. Discarded fishing gear within the NTZ suggested decreased compliance with the no-take regulations. Our findings indicate that due to non-compliance the no-take reserve is no longer functioning effectively, despite its apparent initial successes and instead a gradient of fishing pressure exists with distance from the nearest fishing community. © 2015 Advani et al.",,,,5,10,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,animal; Animals; Article; community assessment; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; CORAL; coral reef; Coral Reefs; ecological phenomena and functions; ecosystem; Ecosystem; Egypt; environmental factor; environmental impact; environmental monitoring; environmental protection; fish; Fisheries; fishery; fishery management; Fishes; fishing; geographic distribution; HABITAT; habitat structure; herbivore; MANAGEMENT; marine environment; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; NETWORKS; no take zone area; nonhuman; PATTERNS; physiology; population abundance; population dynamics; Population Dynamics; PREDATORY FISH; procedures; RECOVERY; REEF FISH; RESERVES; species comparison; trend study,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This study examined the effect of several demographic, economic and socioenvironmental factors on the quality of knowledge about and perceptions toward sharks in two contrasting scenarios from northeastern Brazil: a shark hazardous coastal region and a marine protected insular area. Ordered logistic regression models were built using Likert data collected with a self-administered questionnaire survey (N = 1094). A clear relationship between education, knowledge and perceptions was found, with low education level and knowledge of sharks resulting in more negative perceptions toward these species. Prejudice toward sharks stemmed as a potentially limiting factor because the positive effects of other variables such as affinity for nature and specific knowledge about sharks were superseded by the effects of negative prejudice. Other practical factors such as age, economic level, and gender, also influenced respondent’s knowledge and perceptions and could provide a guidance for optimizing socioenvironmental gains relative to public engagement efforts. Results also suggested that populations inhabiting regions with high shark bite incidence likely require distinct outreach methods because some factors underlying knowledge and perception dynamics exhibited structural differences in their effects when compared to the trends observed in a marine protected area. Altogether, public perceptions and attitudes toward sharks could be feasibly enhanced with educational development and nature experiencing strategies. Moreover, disseminating shark-specific knowledge across the society might catalyze support for the conservation of these species in a cost-effective way. This study provides a potentially useful socioenvironmental framework to deal with the human dimensions of shark management and to strengthen conservation policies aimed at promoting societal compliance with pro-environmental values, which is crucial to endow shark populations with effective protection from anthropogenic threats. © Copyright © 2020 Afonso, Roque, Fidelis, Veras, Conde, Maranhăo, Leandro and Hazin.",,,,,7,,Front.

This includes the optimal design of networks of marine reserves, as movements of fish are a major determinant for the reserve effect (increase in size and number inside reserves) and spillover effect (emigration from reserves). The increasing use of acoustic telemetry techniques, particularly passive acoustic arrays, is providing much of that information, but studies have typically used one specific approach at a specific spatial-temporal scale. We studied movement patterns, habitat use and dispersal in the red porgy, Pagrus pagrus (a commercially important species) in the Azores islands, mid-north Atlantic, with the aim of supporting the design of marine reserves that would protect local populations while enhancing fisheries. Movements were quantified using: (1) short-term active acoustic tracking; (2) multi-year passive acoustic monitoring; and (3) standard tag-release experiments in the Faial Channel. We found the short-term home ranges of red porgy to be quite large for a reef fish - up to 50 ha. Further-more, frequent short-term displacements of up to 9 km and periodic absences from main core activity areas indicate that HR varies considerably in size and location throughout the year. Home range expansion occurred mostly during the protracted period of spawning activity, but we saw no evidence for spawning aggregations. We found evidence that individuals of smaller size utilize larger home ranges and are less site-specific, supporting the hypothesis that dispersal in the red porgy is largely determined by ontogenic changes. Large individual variability in both short-term and long-term movement patterns accounted for some emigrations from tagging sites and for one documented relocation. These findings indicate that adequate protection of subpopulations of red porgy will not be achieved using small, isolated reserves (1 to 5 km(2)), but reserves of size in the order of tens of km(2) and spaced a few kilometers apart should provide protection while promoting emigration (spillover) of red porgy from reserves to neighboring grounds. This study shows that the combination of spatial and temporal scales and approaches is needed to capture a realistic picture of the full suite of spatial behaviors used throughout a species' life history.",,423-+,,,9,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000269650600025,,,,,,,Acoustic telemetry; ADULT CALIFORNIA SHEEPHEAD; FISH; Home range; HOME-RANGE SIZE; Pagrus pagrus; PATTERNS; POPULATION; Relocation; Residency; SELECTION; SEMICOSSYPHUS-PULCHER LABRIDAE; SITE FIDELITY; SNAPPER PAGRUS-AURATUS; SPARIDAE; Spillover,,"Nielsen, JL; Arrizabalaga, H; Fragoso, N; Hobday, A; Lutcavage, M; Sibert, J",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,TAGGING AND TRACKING OF MARINE ANIMALS WITH ELECTRONIC DEVICES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The use of seasonal closures has been advanced for protecting aggregating fisheries for which managers have limited information on the location and timing of their reproductive events; however, few studies have examined the performance of these types of closures. This study assesses the perceptions of 150 fishers regarding the performance of seasonal closures in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Our results show that most fishers perceived that seasonal closures are effective fishery management measures. Across the six seasonal closures examined, fishers reported that these closures protected spawning aggregations and, to a lesser degree, increased fish abundance. These measures, however, did not always improve fishers' livelihoods nor result in their support for the seasonal closures. The loss of resource and market access during periods of high consumer demand and overlapping seasonal closures were the main causes of financial distress. Fishers indicated that the performance of the seasonal closures could be improved by increasing investments in monitoring, control, and surveillance capabilities, and adjusting their timing to accommodate economic and local ecological considerations. Fishers argued that revisions were necessary because some species spawned year-round or outside closure windows. Some fishers also called for replacing seasonal closures with alternative management measures (e.g., area-time closures, marine protected areas, gear restrictions), conducting additional scientific research, and improving fisher education. This work underscores that beliefs about conservation and livelihood outcomes are closely linked to the quality of management, the importance of conducting periodic assessments, and engaging fishers in decision-making to increase accountability, transparency, and support for management interventions. © 2019",,33-42,,,175,,Ocean Coast.

In light of what seems to be global, serial mismanagement of commercial fisheries, conservation groups advocate a number of measures to supplement - not replace - conventional fisheries management regimes. First, better information is needed on the true, ecosystem-wide impacts of fisheries activity, particularly where new fisheries are being launched, major gear modifications are taking place, and/or major expansion of fishing effort is occurring. Second, there must be a paradigm shift in the way evidence of impact is gathered, so that the burden of proof and the resources spent on trying to establish that proof are not the sole responsibility of conservationists.

Information needed to design and implement effective marine protected areas is usually drawn from the fields of fish population dynamics, oceanography, community ecology, and organismal biology, but because the placement, design, and management of marine protected areas are all related to the intended goals, the most crucial information is that about the specific objectives the protected area is designed to achieve.

While conservationists, resource managers, scientists and coastal planners have recognized the broad applicability of marine protected areas (MPAs), they are often implemented without a firm understanding of the conservation science - both ecological and socio-economic - underlying marine protection. The rush to implement MPAs has set the stage for paradoxical differences of opinions in the marine conservation community. 2. The enthusiastic prescription of simplistic solutions to marine conservation problems risks polarization of interests and ultimately threatens bona fide progress in marine conservation. The blanket assignment and advocacy of empirically unsubstantiated rules of thumb in marine protection creates potentially dangerous targets for conservation science. 3. Clarity of definition, systematic testing of assumptions, and adaptive application of diverse MPA management approaches are needed so that the appropriate mix of various management tools can be utilized, depending upon specific goals and conditions. Scientists have a professional and ethical duty to map out those paths that are most likely to lead to improved resource management and understanding of the natural world, including the human element, whether or not they are convenient, politically correct or publicly magnetic. 4. The use of MPAs as a vehicle for promoting long-term conservation and sustainable use of marine biodiversity is in need of focus, and both philosophical and applied tune ups. A new paradigm arising out of integrated, multi-disciplinary science, management and education/outreach efforts must be adopted to help promote flexible, diverse and effective MPA management strategies. Given scientific uncertainties, MPAs should be designed so one can learn from their application and adjust their management strategies as needed, in the true spirit of adaptive management. 5. It is critical for the conservation community to examine why honest differences of opinion regarding MPAs have emerged, and recognize that inflexible attitudes and positions are potentially dangerous. We therefore discuss several questions - heretofore taken as implicit assumptions: (a) what are MPAs, (b) what purpose do MPAs serve, (c) are no-take MPAs the only legitimate MPAs, (d) should a single closed area target be set for all MPAs, and (e) how should policymakers and conservation communities deal with scientific uncertainty?

In the marine and coastal realms, targets have been successful in setting sustainable limits to fisheries harvests, thresholds for pollutants, and recommended amounts of representative habitat included in marine protected area (MPA) networks. Quantifiable targets can dissuade governments from making dubious claims about investments in ocean protection that sound impressive but cannot be verified. Examples are presented where protection targets have been used successfully for marine management, and instances where measurable and meaningful benchmarks serve to allow tracking of true progress. However, the setting of targets can also be a double-edged sword. In some cases, targets have proven useful, but in many instances, interventions made to fulfil targets not only give a false illusion of progress or even success, they present opportunity costs that impede further conservation. Some of these issues were raised in the 2003 article ‘Dangerous Targets?: Unresolved issues and ideological clashes around marine protected areas’ that appeared in Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems. Since its publication, the article's warnings about how targets can sometimes be dangerous and counter-productive have led to intense debate among scientists and policy-makers alike, and the paper has been cited in more than 500 publications. Yet today, more than a dozen years after the first ‘Dangerous Targets' publication, new targets are driving more MPA designations and conservation strategies than ever before, and the ‘dangerous’ aspects of target setting have been largely ignored. This paper discusses old ‘dangers' in the context of new developments in marine conservation, including the lingering problem of having simplistic metrics drive marine policies, and the unintended result that can often occur when outputs (percentage of area under MPA designation) do not align with true outcomes of effective management and conservation. Newly emerging ‘dangers’ in letting areal targets (percentage of area under MPA designation) drive MPA designations are also discussed, including how the rush to fulfil obligations to protect a certain proportion of area is taking place in planning, separate from broader level, and potentially more holistic, marine spatial planning (MSP). The paper suggests five recommendations that would allow policy-makers to use targets more effectively, including: (1) increase transparency in planning, especially around specific goals and objectives of MPA establishment; (2) use time-based areal targets when representativity is a goal of the protected area strategy; (3) use MPAs when spatial protections are the best solution to the management challenge; (4) design MPAs with intrinsic performance goals, and use performance-based metrics in subsequent evaluation of MPAs; and (5) embed MPA planning into broader policy frameworks, including MSP. These five recommendations are oriented toward multilateral institutions, governments, and non-governmental organizations, suggesting concrete ways to utilize target-setting to their best advantage, in order to fight the downward spiral of degradation affecting marine and coastal environments worldwide.

Although IMMAs are not a blueprint for marine protected areas or other conservation designations, they are useful for providing a foundation for marine spatial planning and systematic conservation planning that can then lead to protected areas or special spatial regulations. To be most useful for supporting management and conservation, however, the information coming out of IMMAs needs to reflect current conditions. An ‘early warning system’ is proposed with a generic set of indicators to flag when marine mammal species in IMMAs require management interventions due to changing distributions or decreasing populations. Rather than signifying that quantitative thresholds have been reached, these indicators comprise alerting information derived from visual or acoustic census, satellite imagery analysis, whale-watching logs, or increases in mortality reported by stranding networks that can trigger additional targeted research. Although it is possible that in some regions data will be sufficient to provide quantifiable indicators, the system is meant to rely on existing data sources, and be adaptable to the circumstances of each region. Regional expert groups can utilize early warning system information and feed it into IMMA-related spatial planning in two ways: by nominating additional areas of interest, and by providing a scientific rationale for revising IMMA boundaries, to be considered at the next decadal IMMA regional expert workshop. IMMA-driven consolidation of information that is as current as possible will prove valuable for enhancing regional cooperation to conserve marine mammals, and will be useful as countries implement new protected areas to conserve marine mammals and other marine biodiversity. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,71-83,,S2,29,,Aquatic Conserv.

This indicates the importance of investigating the causes and eliminating the consequences of the occurrence of IUU fishing. This study aimed to determine the barriers to sturgeon conservation, and to evaluate the importance of variables involved in the occurrence of IUU fishing in the southern Caspian Sea using field- and questionnaire-based surveys of 520 Iranian fishers and 40 fishery experts. Modelling the data using the Logit regression model indicated that several social, economic, conservation, and fishery-related variables (including fisheries knowledge, fish price, fishing method, fishing time, catch/vessel ownership, conservation importance, and penalty awareness) significantly contributed to the occurrence of illegal fishing. Fishers with poorer fisheries knowledge who owned fishing vessels were more likely to be involved in IUU fishing. In addition, fishers who were less concerned about sturgeon conservation and who used non-standard fishing gear at night had a higher probability of committing IUU fishing. Exploring the opinions of fishery experts through the analytical hierarchy process also showed that economic, social, fishing, and conservation criteria were respectively attributed the highest weights as the contributing criteria to the occurrence of IUU fishing. Overall, close associations were observed between the range of determinants, with the probability of the occurrence of IUU fishing indicating that illegal fishing is a complex event that should be studied in different dimensions because of the involvement of a combination of drivers. The knowledge obtained here can assist the relevant agencies in preventing this widespread problem, and with the practical rebuilding and more efficient conservation planning of sturgeon stocks.

This study demonstrates the erosion of fish TP, an additional process that results in lower TP of individuals of a given size, which may exacerbate the effects of fishing on the food web. A stable isotope approach based on the tRophicPosition Bayesian method was used to quantify the TP of 12 target marine species at a given length, and compare their TP between fishery-restricted areas and trawled areas. The results show a difference in the TP of six benthic and apical nekto-benthic predators, which feed in the median at about 0.5 TP lower in trawled areas. It appears that current 'fishing down marine food webs' analyses may underestimate the trophic effects of fishing. Accounting for changes in trophodynamics of individuals at a given size is important to detect indirect effects through food web interactions. The application of a trawling ban may lead to the restoration of lost trophic structure; however, trophic changes may occur more slowly than changes in biomass.

In this way, it was possible to compare projected zoning changes on land use/landcover, as well as implications for wetlands. The methodology involved the reconstruction of scenarios based on norms and evaluation of thematic maps generated from remote sensing products. Digital Image Processing techniques were used to map land use/land cover categories and to identify the boundaries of protected areas in each period. The largest change observed indicates loss of 1,907.09 ha of flooded areas of the fluvial-marine plain, almost totally occupied by salt evaporation tanks. In 1965, three categories of PPA were observed, accounting for 455.17 ha, but for law limitations only 83.45 ha were protected. In relation to 2012, six categories of PPA were detected, totaling 1,051.96 ha, as a consequence of the expansion of protective areas, but the previously consolidated areas reduced to 787.57 ha the size of protected areas in the last period. The brazilian estuarine environment is remarked by the lack of more specific legislation that best protects wetlands. Permanent Preservation Areas are unsufficient to guarantee environmental quality of the coastal region, especially in study area, where there´s flood risks and degraded ecosystems. © 2018, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro.

Distribution maps were prepared for each taxon and overlaid onto a map of Mexico divided into 1 × 1 degree grid-cells. Richness was determined by counting recorded helminth species in each grid-cell. A corrected weighted endemism index was calculated for each grid-cell, and the relationship between richness and endemicity was analysed with an Olmstead-Tukey corner test of association. Five areas of high richness and endemism were identified: (1) Los Tuxtlas and the Papaloapan river basin, on the Gulf of Mexico; (2) the Grijalva-Usumacinta basin near the Gulf of Mexico coastal plain; (3) the Yucatan Peninsula; (4) the Sierra de Manantlán Biosphere Reserve in western Mexico; and (5) the Pátzcuaro lake, in central Mexico. The distribution of richness and endemism of helminth parasites of freshwater fishes in Mexico is congruent with distributional patterns described for other freshwater taxa in Mexico. Patterns of richness and/or endemism in the studied areas can be explained by the ichthyological composition of their bodies of water. The present study establishes an objective way of analysing the relationship between richness and endemicity, and suggests that helminths can make valuable contributions to regionalization of geographical areas and for identification of rich and biologically complex areas with potential for conservation of aquatic systems. © 2008 The Linnean Society of London.",,435-444,,2,94,,Biol.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are amongst the most widespread and recognized marine conservation tools worldwide, however, MPAs alone are inadequate to address the environmental crisis. The promotion of other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs) under draft Target 3 of the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework, i.e., conserving 30% of marine areas by 2030, holds promise to acknowledge sites and practices occurring beyond MPAs that contribute to conservation. Here, we evaluate the potential recognition of OECMs into Indonesia's national policy framework on marine resource management and provide the first-ever overview of distribution and types of potential marine OECMs in Indonesia, including a review of the existing evidence on conservation effectiveness. We identified > 390 potential marine OECMs, led by government, customary and local communities, or the private sector, towards diverse management objectives, including habitat protection, traditional/customary management, fisheries, tourism, or other purposes. While some evidence exists regarding the conservation effectiveness of these practices, the long-term impacts on biodiversity of all potential marine OECMs in Indonesia are unknown. Many OECM elements have been included in several national policies, yet there are no established mechanisms to identify, recognize and report sites as OECMs in Indonesia. We propose four transformational strategies for future OECM recognition in Indonesia, namely: (i) safeguard customary and traditional communities, (ii) leverage cross-sector and cross-scale collaboration, (iii) focus on delivering outcomes, and (iv) streamline legal frameworks. Our study shows that OECMs have the potential to play a significant role in underpinning marine area-based conservation in Indonesia, including supporting the Government of Indonesia in reaching national and international conservation targets and goals. © 2022",,,,,137,,Mar.

The region has some of the most extensive coastline and diverse coral reef ecosystems that remain highly threatened. The need to protect these areas is definite, but establishment of a MPA often involves conflicts with its stakeholders that highly depend on the ecosystem. This paper reviews 32 studies that evaluated the MPA strategy implemented in various SEA countries since the 1980's to the present. The objective of this paper is to determine the effectiveness of the MPA strategy within the context of SEA. Biological, socioeconomic and governance indicators provided by The World Conservation Union (IUCN) were used in this paper as measures of MPA effectiveness. It was found that the MPA strategy may be ideally suited for some areas but may also be inappropriate for others. The three indicators are highly related to each other in determining a MPA success.

However, there are limitations of these approaches that can be addressed via Key Biodiversity Areas (KBA). Hence, the aim of the study is to review and compare several current conservation approaches in Malaysia with KBA. Systematic literature search was done using a set of keywords in search engine and visited official government websites to obtain relevant documentations on conservation and biodiversity in Malaysia. Based on the findings, KBA is a holistic approach consisting of several biodiversity elements, criteria and themes that can be put in place, including Important Plant Areas (IPA), Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas (IBA), Important Fungus Areas and Prime Butterfly Areas. This approach has successfully helped many countries such as the Philippines, Indo-Burma hotspot, Uganda, and Canada identify and prioritize important sites for biodiversity conservation. Thus, KBA approach is an alternative approach to support stakeholders in mainstreaming biodiversity conservation approaches in Malaysia for more effective conservation planning in the future. This approach also offers geographic targets for the expansion of protected area coverage and identifies the site for urgent conservation action. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,842,,,,,,,,IOP Publishing Ltd,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

The study was conducted for four years over a seasonal period of spring 2019 (February-March) to fall 2022 (September to October). For the exploration of maximum diversity at both sites, quadrats of 10 × 10 m were placed randomly. Ten soil, twelve anthropogenic, seven environmental and eight seasonal variables were used to assess their relationship with vegetation of both sites during four years of study. For statistical analysis, data was processed in the SPSS for LSD test and R Studio for Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) and heat map preparation. A total of 84 plant species, belonging to 62 genera and 26 families, were identified in the Derawar region. Herbaceous plants comprised the majority, with 42 species, followed by grasses (22 species), shrubs (12 species), trees (7 species), and one sedge species. The protected site exhibited higher species diversity, with 76 species from 23 families, compared to the unprotected site, which had 49 species from 15 families. Species richness, Simpson index, and Shannon index showed significant declines in diversity from the protected to the unprotected site. While comparing the seasons, an overall significant increase in diversity was observed from spring to fall in the protected site, while the unprotected site exhibited the opposite trend. Precipitation averaged from 0 to 32 mm during the spring and 9 to 197 mm during the fall seasons. The study examined fluctuations in temperature, wind speed, evaporation, and humidity, with higher levels during the fall season. Soil analysis revealed an alkaline composition, with the protected site being predominantly sandy and the unprotected site mainly clayey saline. Anthropogenic activities, including agriculture, deforestation, military activities, over-collection, overgrazing, overhunting, solid waste, and tourism, were found to be more prevalent and impactful in the unprotected site, with the highest level of impact ranging from 3-4. The CCA analysis underlines the significance of global importance of protected areas towards bending the curve of floristic diversity loss, as compared to unprotected sites, despite both experiencing the similar climatic conditions, with human impact being the only distinguishing factor. Greater plant diversity positively impacts soil nutrients of protected sites by leading to these outcomes. To achieve long-term climate goals and protection of the arid ecosystem, it is recommended to designate more protected areas at identified hotspots as an effective conservation practice in this region. © 2024, HARD Publishing Company.

While global tree cover is being mapped with increasing accuracy from space, much less is known about the quality of that tree cover. Here we present a field protocol for rapid assessments of forest condition. Using extensive field data from Tanzania, we show that a focus on remotely-sensed deforestation would not detect significant reductions in forest quality. Radar-based remote sensing of degradation had good agreement with the ground data, but the ground surveys provided more insights into the nature and drivers of degradation. We recommend the combined use of rapid field assessments and remote sensing to provide an early warning, and to allow timely and appropriately targeted conservation and policy responses. Summary: Tropical forest degradation is widely recognised as a driver of biodiversity loss and a major source of carbon emissions. However, in contrast to deforestation, more gradual changes from degradation are challenging to detect, quantify and monitor. Here, we present a field protocol for rapid, area-standardised quantifications of forest condition, which can also be implemented by non-specialists. Using the example of threatened high-biodiversity forests in Tanzania, we analyse and predict degradation based on this method. We also compare the field data to optical and radar remote-sensing datasets, thereby conducting a large-scale, independent test of the ability of these products to map degradation in East Africa from space. Our field data consist of 551 ‘degradation’ transects collected between 1996 and 2010, covering >600 ha across 86 forests in the Eastern Arc Mountains and coastal forests. Degradation was widespread, with over one-third of the study forests—mostly protected areas—having more than 10% of their trees cut. Commonly used optical remote-sensing maps of complete tree cover loss only detected severe impacts (?25% of trees cut), that is, a focus on remotely-sensed deforestation would have significantly underestimated carbon emissions and declines in forest quality. Radar-based maps detected even low impacts (<5% of trees cut) in ~90% of cases. The field data additionally differentiated types and drivers of harvesting, with spatial patterns suggesting that logging and charcoal production were mainly driven by demand from major cities. Rapid degradation surveys and radar remote sensing can provide an early warning and guide appropriate conservation and policy responses. This is particularly important in areas where forest degradation is more widespread than deforestation, such as in eastern and southern Africa. © 2021 The Authors.

The main scope was the development of an Oil Spill Best Practice which provides a guideline addressed to eni subsidiaries for oil spill preparedness and for the selection of the most suitable tactics and technologies for response and remediation. This is based on the habitat types present in each Country where eni operates. To reach this goal, the Habitat Mapping and Benchmarking activities were performed as intermediate deliverables. Habitat mapping is based on the mapping and classification of all the habitat types using certified reference datasets. Three marine and seven terrestrial habitats were identified. Benchmarking analysis provides a detailed overview over the current status and development trends of oil spill response and remediation tactics and technologies applied worldwide. They have then been categorized with respect to suitability for the various habitat types. A webGIS application was identified as the best solution to manage all the data and information acquired during the development of the project. The application runs wherever an internet connection is available and allows an effective remote support of the accidental oil spill scenario. For this reason the SmartGIS was launched with the development of an environmental analysis tool within the 3Ter Advanced Emergency System, already implemented in eni in case of emergency. The environmental analysis tool is characterised by different layers for habitats, countries, marine regions, active concessions and protected areas. In addition it can be supplemented by other information such as meteomarine data, nautical charts, bathymetry and vessel tracking as well as thickness and concentration of oil. This paper will illustrate how the data and information presented in the SmartGIS can be applied worldwide in case of an accidental oil spill, providing a effective contribution to handle the emergency situation. © 2014, Society of Petroleum Engineers.",,814-821,,,2,,,,,,,,Society of Petroleum Engineers,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Soc.

These forest ecosystems are an integral part of the West African forest block, which stretches from Liberia to Togo. However, despite their richness and ecological importance, these forests are unfortunately subject to strong human pressures, particularly from slash-and-burn agriculture, intensive logging and the growing urbanisation of coastal areas. Preserving these forests is crucial, however, as they are home to remarkable plant and animal biodiversity, with many endemic species. What’s more, these forests play an essential role in regulating the local climate, protecting soil and water resources, as well as providing local populations with a vital source of energy wood, non-timber forest products and support for their traditional agricultural practices. Faced with these conservation challenges, identifying and characterising the main tree species found in the forests of southern and central Benin, forest species and their ecology is an essential prerequisite for implementing sustainable management and restoration strategies for these threatened forest ecosystems in southern Benin. This work aims to identify and draw attention to the different forest species, specially tree forest species present in southern and central Benin. New information The dataset provides information on forest species found in southern and central Benin, West Africa. This dataset is extremely useful for forestry research, as it focuses mainly on the various forest species of major importance. It can be used as a basis for characterising individuals or populations of species, based on their abundance in relation to anthropogenic pressure and changes in environmental conditions. These species are characteristic of forests and, above all, are of particular interest both to populations and to managers of protected areas. Field collections were initiated in 2007 as part of natural forest inventory work. The data collected have been completed by various field works that followed this work on forest species in southern Benin. The latest version of the dataset is publicly and freely accessible on the GBIF website at the address https://www.gbif.org/dataset/aff3a10a-a86b-4eff-98e4-d63f92fd6f7e. It should be noted that the fact that the collection and monitoring were carried out in southern Benin, a region known for its great diversity of species, over a period of 10 years making these data particularly relevant information to study the effects of climate change and human pressure on ecosystems in this area. © Aikpon G et al.

Policies evaluated include no-take marine protected areas (MPAs), breeding period closures, changes in hook size and fishing effort, and gear-specific spatial closures. No-take MPAs yield ecological benefits over a wide range of MPA sizes and characteristics, but do not increase overall catch. Seasonal closures are effective at reducing overfishing for the depleted leopard grouper (Mycteroperca rosacea); changing the hook size of artisanal longlines does not increase catch of either the target species or the assemblage, and gear-specific fishery closures for crab traps near Puerto Peńasco are effective at reducing overfishing of blue crab (Callinectes bellicosus and C. arcuatus).

Mounting conservation concerns have prompted researchers to propose new management regulations, restricting fishing and protecting sensitive species. Compliance with existing regulations is poor. Rules that are currently in place, if followed, may go a long way towards achieving the ecological goals of management. We conduct a review of existing fisheries regulations in this area. Then, using a spatially explicit marine ecosystem model (Atlantis), we estimate the benefits of compliance with existing fisheries regulations. Under a full compliance scenario, we find large increases in protected species biomass within 25years and a slowed rate of ecosystem degradation because of fishing. However, full compliance costs the fishing industry about 30% of its annual revenue. We parse out the benefits offered by management instruments (including spatial management protections, seasonal fishery closures, gear restrictions, cessation of illegal fishing and vessel buy-out programmes) and conclude that a suite of measures is needed to address major conservation objectives. Synthesis and applications. This exercise quantifies the benefits of improved fisheries enforcement and provides a benchmark by which the value of future regulatory amendments can be assessed. Where compliance with existing regulations is poor, conservation goals may be better served by strengthening enforcement than by enacting new rules and legislation. © 2011 The Authors.

Although we describe the case study of the Channel Islands, the approach to marine reserve design may be effective in other regions where traditional management alone does not sustain marine resources. A group of agencies, organizations, and individuals established clear goals for marine reserves in the Channel Islands, including conservation of ecosystem biodiversity, sustainable fisheries, economic viability, natural and cultural heritage, and education. Given the constraints of risk management, experimental design, monitoring, and enforcement, scientists recommended at least one, but no more than four, reserves in each biogeographic region. In general, the percentage of an area to be included in a reserve network depends on the goals. In the Channel Islands, after consideration of both conservation goals and the risk from human threats and natural catastrophes, scientists recommended reserving an area of 30-50% of all representative habitats in each biogeographic region. For most species of concern, except pinnipeds and seabirds, information about distributions, dispersal, and population growth was limited. As an alternative to species distribution information, suitable habitats for species of concern were used to locate potential reserve sites. We used a simulated annealing algorithm to identify potential reserve network scenarios that would represent all habitats within the smallest area possible.

Estimating the emerging threat factors linked to habitat losses is very important to understand the effects on biodiversity and to design protection strategies and protected areas. Field assessments and modelling were performed with the aim of determining areas where orchids may spread and to reveal priority areas to create a protection plan. Additionally, the aim was to contribute to development of protection strategies for taxa under threat. This study was performed in the Black Sea region located in the north of Turkey. A total of 40 taxa belonging to 15 Orchidaceae genera were collected. The field assessment process used topographic parameters and threat factors. Habitats where orchids are most commonly distributed comprise open areas, meadows, pastures, and forests. Additionally, the density of orchids was determined to be highest at altitudes from 400 to 1600 m. The highest risk factors for taxa in the region include grazing and trampling. Based on these results, suitable habitats were modelled and mapped according to the observed habitat requirements. The determined suitable habitats will represent the preliminary targets for ex situ protection programs where required. The maps revealed here are important for labeling areas with an estimated orchid density and for protection of these areas if necessary. Our field observations were compatible with the obtained maps. Additionally, we consider these maps to be very important in terms of determining areas where taxa will be spread in preliminary field studies. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,,,12,193,,Environ.

One such tool is the Community Conservation Index (CCI), which was primarily developed in Britain but is also recommended for international use. The current study intends to further test the CCI's applicability and its sensitivity in identifying freshwater systems of high conservation importance. The pristine condition of three natural monument (Arinta, Ekor, and Oowu waterfalls) streams was evaluated in this study using the macroinvertebrate metric indicators, and the results were compared with their CCIs. The relative compositions of stress-sensitive species, facultative species, functional feeding guilds (FFGs), and modes of locomotion or microhabitat preference (ML/MP) were selected as the macroinvertebrate metrics. The fauna was dominated by the taxonomic group EPT (Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, Trichoptera), with the highest EPT-related metrics found at Oowu Waterfalls. Ironically, because a vulnerable species (i.e. Pentaphlebia stahli) is present there, the Ekor Waterfalls, which had the lowest values for the EPT-related metrics, had the highest CCI. Although both the CCI (>20) and macroinvertebrate metrics suggest that the three sites had high conservation value, the CCI proved to be more goal-oriented in determining the conservation value of pristine freshwater ecosystems. In light of the findings of this study, it is recommended that the CCI be utilized in conjunction with macroinvertebrate metric indicators for studies of a similar nature, particularly in Afrotropics' protected and pristine sites that are a potential refuge for rare and threatened species.",,1067-1078,,4,78,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000919922900003,,,,,,,BENTHIC MACROINVERTEBRATES; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; BREAKDOWN; DIVERSITY; Functional feeding guilds; Protected area; QUALITY; Riparian forest; RIVER; SHREDDERS; SPECIES RICHNESS; STREAMS; Stress-sensitive taxa; VICTORIA; Waterfall,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Unfortunately, the fisheries condition has continued to decline in the past decades, where the rate of exploitation of capture fisheries in Jor Bay shows an unbalanced condition because the harvest value is still higher than the recruitments and growth. Awiq-Awiq regulates all existing utilization and protection of marine resources, but yet, has not included spatial aspects, leaving a situation that leads to unsustainability for fisheries resources and other resources. Balanced zoning of ecosystems and marine resources is needed in order to ensure the sustainability of the fisheries system in Jor Bay. This paper aims to illustrate how a marine spatial planning approach in a local MPA can be built with a community-based zoning system. The integration of local systems and formal-government systems is very effective and fast in the development of MPA zoning systems by considering the optimum allocation of the existence of ecosystems that guarantee the natural metabolic processes of the fisheries system in the Bay. The implementation of the MPA zoning system is expected to be able to support the guarantee of sustainable fisheries production for the surrounding region. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,414,,,,,,,,Institute of Physics Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

As public lands come under increasing stress from invader-fire interactions, managers need tools that deplete nonnative propagules at meaningful temporal and spatial scales. The pre-emergent herbicide indaziflam, which has been approved for use in natural areas, achieves multi-year control of Bromus tectorum (cheatgrass) and other short-lived nonnative species, while leaving co-occurring, established perennials largely intact. Here we explore how pre-fire management with indaziflam shapes plant community assembly post-fire. We ask whether indaziflam (1) maintains good efficacy against the target species Bromus tectorum, Bromus japonicus, and Alyssum simplex in the first growing season post-wildfire, as well as short-lived introduced species more generally; (2) exhibits nontarget effects on short-lived native species; and (3) supports recovery of long-lived native species. Indaziflam was highly effective in controlling all three target species in both burned and unburned areas, revealing its potential to break the invader-fire cycle. However, short-lived native species were also suppressed, either in burned areas only (richness), or in burned and unburned areas (percent cover). As found in other systems, indaziflam had no negative effects on long-lived native species. These findings highlight potential trade-offs in adopting indaziflam as a tool, with its use likely to be extremely effective in highly invaded systems already depauperate of native propagules, but requiring more caution and, if resources allow, attendant restoration plans (e.g., reseeding with desirable natives) in more intact natural areas. © 2024 Natural Areas Association.

Location The main course of the Amazon River in Brazil, covering a river distance of approximately 2800km. Methods Two sampling methods were employed at specific sites: standardized transects and/or individual-based samples. Seventy-three samples were collected from 26 sites at approximately 100-km intervals along the floodplain. Biogeographic regions were identified by non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) ordination and by a hierarchical cluster analysis. The relative influence of environmental components (flood depths, annual rainfall, and length of the dry season) on tree species composition and one spatial component (longitude) were analysed by multiple regressions against a one-dimensional NMDS ordination axis. Results Based on tree species composition, three main biogeographic regions were identified: a western region between Tabatinga and the Negro River confluence; a central region from the Negro River confluence to the Xingu confluence; and an estuarine region from the Xingu confluence to Santana. The regions identified were consistent using different data sets and analytical techniques. Mixed environmental and spatial effects explained most of the variation, but the spatial effect alone had a greater influence on species composition than environmental effects alone. Main conclusions The regions delimited in the analyses differed from those based on geomorphology or World Wildlife Fund (WWF) ecoregions. These results reinforce the need for surrogates to be tested against biological data before they are used to shape approaches to conservation planning. Although a protected area coverage of 25% gives the impression of extensive conservation management on the floodplain, less than 1% of the Amazon's floodplain in Brazil is strictly protected. The significant compositional differences between regions and the strong spatial variation along the Amazon indicate that strict protection areas should be distributed much more evenly within and between regions. © 2011 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,869-883,,5,39,,J.

Aspatial policies—taxes, gear restrictions, license restrictions, and livelihood programs—improve the MPA’s ability to generate ecological gains, and licenses and livelihood policies can mitigate MPA-induced income burdens. Managers can use MPA location and enforcement level, in conjunction with the MPA’s impact on fish dispersal, to induce exit from fishing and to direct the spatial leakage of effort.

Consequently, these protected areas may fail to achieve their intended goal. We present and solve a spatial bio-economic model in which a manager chooses the optimal location, size, and enforcement level of a marine protected area (MPA). This manager acts as a Stackelberg leader, and her choices consider villagers’ best response to the MPA in a spatial Nash equilibrium of fishing site and effort decisions. Relevant to lower income country settings but general to other settings, we incorporate limited enforcement budgets, distance costs of traveling to fishing sites, and labor allocation to onshore wage opportunities. The optimal MPA varies markedly across alternative manager goals and budget sizes, but always induce changes in villagers’ decisions as a function of distance, dispersal, and wage. We consider MPA managers with ecological conservation goals and with economic goals, and identify the shortcomings of several common manager decision rules, including those focused on: (1) fishery outcomes rather than broader economic goals, (2) fish stocks at MPA sites rather than across the full marinescape, (3) absolute levels rather than additional values, and (4) costless enforcement. Our results demonstrate that such naďve or overly narrow decision rules can lead to inefficient MPA designs that miss economic and conservation opportunities. © 2020, The Author(s).",,229-269,,1,77,,Environ.

We collected 624 independent records from L. guttulus (108), L. pardalis (55), L. wiedii (77) and P. concolor (384) in a sampling effort of 12,266 camera-traps/day. All species analysed showed a non-uniform distribution of daily activity, when considering the two years. We report the peak of seasonal activity for all species between the months of June and September, coinciding with the Araucaria nut harvest in the study area, and with the increase in populations of small rodents. We also report a high overlap between the activity patterns of the four species. The daily and seasonal activity patterns of the species in this study seem to reflect the intrinsic dynamics of the Araucaria Forest, as well as possible adaptations to prey availability. © 2023, Fundacao Zoobotanica do Rio Grande do Sul.

Lionfish possess a broad suite of traits that makes them particularly successful invaders and strong negative interactors with native fauna, including defensive venomous spines, cryptic form, color and behavior, habitat generality, high competitive ability, low parasite load, efficient predation, rapid growth, and high reproductive rates. With an eye on the future, we describe a possible ""worst case scenario"" in which the direct and indirect effects of lionfish could combine with the impacts of preexisting stressors-especially overfishing-and cause substantial deleterious changes in coral-reef communities. We also discuss management actions that could be taken to minimize these potential effects by, first, developing targeted lionfish fisheries and local removals, and second, enhancing native biotic resistance, particularly via marine reserves that could conserve and foster potential natural enemies of this invader. Ultimately, the lionfish invasion will be limited either by the lionfish starving-the worst end to the worst case scenario-or by some combination of native pathogens, parasites, predators, and competitors controlling the abundance of lionfish. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,1151-1157,,10-Nov,96,,Environ.

Historically, species richness has been used to calculate the importance of priority areas for conservation, but several studies revealed sites with high species richness often fail to determine the smallest number of sites that will protect the highest number of species. Rarity, however, has played a prominent role in safeguarding planning units. While the performance of rarity has been previously assessed in terrestrial systems, we tested the hypothesis that rarity of a site can be used as a measure of the importance of a site to a conservation network in marine ecosystems. We used the presence data (at a 1-degree resolution) to calculate five rarity indices of fish diversity at a global extent and compared the results to those obtained by using species richness and site complementarity. Our objectives were to: (1) determine if rarity indices can be used as surrogates of fish biodiversity by representing the highest number of species in the smallest number of sites; and (2) determine if the effectiveness of these indices to represent fish biodiversity is impacted by the metric used to define rarity. Results indicate that rarity could be an effective surrogate for marine fishes, as most results showed a mean of 100% effectiveness. In the context of marine biodiversity conservation, results show that rarity indices could be considered affordable and feasible surrogates of species representation, with the most significant benefit to those areas of the world that are in most need to access alternative tools. Results also open a new area of collaboration between biogeography and marine conservation biology since planners can use biogeographical patterns of rarity to enhance the performance of the current protected area network. © 2020 Albuquerque and Astudillo- Scalia.",,,,2,2020,,PeerJ,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: PeerJ Inc.,,,,Alpha diversity; AREAS; article; BIODIVERSITY; biogeography; CONSERVATION; conservation biology; fish; HOTSPOTS; Index of relative rarity; Index of summed rarity; marine environment; Marine fishes; nonhuman; Rarity; Rarity weighted richness; RICHNESS; SELECTION; SITES; species richness; Surrogates of biodiversity,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Temporal analyses of these images are of great interest for the study and management of protected areas. In this work, we show three approaches that aim to evaluate changes in the mean, seasonality, and instability of the temporal dynamics (abrupt changes) of the photosynthetic capacity of vegetation in three study areas: the South American network of protected areas, the Spanish network of national parks, and two Andalusian natural parks. For each analysis, we used different data records of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), a spectral index related to the fraction of photosynthetically active radiation intercepted by vegetation. The South American protected areas and the Spanish national parks showed significant trends in the NDVI dynamics that varied in magnitude and direction depending on their geopolitical and biogeographical situation. The Andalusian parks showed how different historical managements have led to a decrease in the stability of the NDVI temporal dynamics in particular ecosystems. As a whole, the three evaluations revealed how biodiversity conservation policies in protected areas cannot be based on static or mean situations since the functioning of protected ecosystems is changing in multiple aspects. Additionally, these approaches provide valuable information for the establishment of priorities in conservation, being capable of responding to questions such as, what biomes, countries or parks are experiencing the greatest changes?, or what management practices provide a greater stability to the ecosystem? © 2008 Asociacion Espanola de Ecologia Terrestre.

Each Centre links together outstanding groups of research providers with research users from industry, government and the community. In 1993, a Cooperative Reef Research Centre (CRC) was created to increase collaboration between major science institutions, management agencies and industry groups in a joint venture for ecologically sustainable use of the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area. Tourism on the Great Barrier Reef is a major and growing industry. Currently, it is estimated as worth more than AUD$1 billion per annum and, in 1997, attracted about one and a half million visitors per year. Reef tourism is mostly nature-based and generally non-extractive involving about 600 commercial operators providing a wide range of activities including scuba diving, snorkelling, sailing and island resort activities. The paper will show how an integrated CRC program of research and development, training and extension, enhances Reef-based industries and provides information for better tourism management and decision making. The $50 million, seven-year program is funded jointly by tourist operators (sourced through an environmental management charge to visitors), State and Commonwealth governments, and research institutions. The paper will outline how formal research networks, innovative joint finding and collaborative partnerships with tourism operators and Reef managers help resolve social, environmental and economic issues including people pressures, coastal development, codes of practice, visitor experience, water quality and marine conservation policies. It will also show how interactive planning and communication can overcome opposition and competition, and develop a ""culture of collaboration"" between these often disparate groups.

However, when evaluating MEABRs and MPAs as conservation and/or management tools, their impact upon parasite populations has rarely been considered, despite the fact that epidemiological theory suggests an increased susceptibility to parasitism under high population abundance. We evaluated the effects of MEABRs on the parasite abundance of Proctoeces lintoni and its impact on the growth of the host limpet Fissurella crassa in central Chile. Parasitic magnitude was higher inside MEABRs than in Open-Access Areas, and parasitized limpets showed a greater shell length, muscular foot biomass, and gonadosomatic index compared to non-parasitized limpets of the same age. Our results suggest that the life cycle of P. lintoni and, consequently, its trophic links have been strengthened inside MEABRs. The increased growth rate could reduce the time required to reach the minimum catch size and increase the reproductive and muscular output of the host population.

Natural and/or human-induced actions can influence the dynamics between primates and the environment, with associated impacts on socio-ecology and demography. This relationship in anthropogenic landscapes, however, is poorly understood. Here, we use DNA metabarcoding to obtain high resolution dietary diversity data, and multivariate generalised linear models to investigate variation in the diet of this threatened primate. We characterise the diet of the western red colobus (Piliocolobus badius) in both the better preserved Gola Rainforest National Park (GRNP, Sierra Leone), and in the fragmented forests of Cantanhez National Park (CNP, Guinea-Bissau), and evaluate biological, ecological and temporal differences. Dietary plant species richness was high in both protected areas, and the type of plants consumed varied significantly across seasons, space, and time. Although we identify dependence on a few key plants, red colobus in CNP consumed a higher average number of plant taxa than in GRNP, and 11% of the diet consisted of cultivated foods (e.g. mango). This is the first time a molecular approach has been used to investigate red colobus diet, and reveal dietary flexibility in degraded forests. Predicting the consequences of dietary change on long-term population persistence, however, remains a significant knowledge gap. Nevertheless, our results provide critical information to inform targeted regional conservation planning and implementation.

We evaluated the effects of a large-scale offshore MPA located on the Southwest Atlantic Patagonian Shelf (43°S 63°W) on the demersal fish assemblage. Compliance of the Patagonian MPA was assessed by analysing eight years of satellite vessel monitoring system (VMS; 2000-2008) data, which showed compliance and fishing effort concentrated near the protection boundaries. MPA effects were studied by employing a five year database collected by a scientific research vessel in protected and fishing locations, before and after the MPA establishment. We assessed 152 scientific trawling stations using multivariate analysis of fish assemblage structure, fish abundance (discriminating target and non-target species), and mean size and proportion of juveniles of the target species (Argentine hake, Merluccius hubbsi). The identified MPA effects were a trend towards increasing abundance of the demersal fish assemblage, the target and non-target fish species, and hake juvenile size, and a higher proportion of juveniles aged 2+ inside the MPA.

In near future water wars in the Middle East are predictable. Exploitation of land resource has the most significant impact on wetlands. Wetlands degradation is the serious warning to unsustainable development. Despite that the Lake Urmia is recorded in conservation lists as Iranian national parks, Ramsar sites and UNESCO biosphere reserves, over the past decade, change detection in this land indicates the regression of water level. Geology studies such as sediment, pale limnology and hydro geochemistry have shown the role of climate in drying of Urmia Lake with serious uncertainty. Testimonies indicate that Urmia Lake during the Holocene wasn't dry except in shoreline. Unsustainable future for environmental and socio-economic dimensions of this land is predictable. Thus, investigation about the ways of utilization water resources in basic needs (especially water and soil) in Urmia watershed seems necessary. In macroscopic and coarse scales, sustainable development policy making needs Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) approach. Integrated management plan for watershed of Lake Urmia is single plan in Urmia basin scale. This plan doesn't have necessary strategies for resource management and has a lot of ambiguities and faults. Moreover, resource management of this land didn't have requisite strategies. This study will identify causal chains of land degradation with driving force-pressure-state-impact-response (DPSIR) model. Then, policies are collected in order to protect natural resources, the area, and the profits of local residual and future generations with SEA approach. SEA studies have just begun in Iran, so this study has much educational and investigative value. Materials and Methods: Urmia Lake is located at the end of closed endorheic basin of Urmia in North West Iranian plateau. This basin has nine watersheds. Two watersheds are situated on ecological zone. This study is based on description and systematic analysis by using quantitative and qualitative data in SEA framework and policy making category. Screening and scoping stages are noted to understand state of environment and completion of socio-economic baseline studies. Screening stage is noted to initial environmental evaluation by using DPSIR model. This model defines the association between environmental processes and environmental impact with human activities. In scoping stage, important scales, variable ecological components, and variable social components have been distinguished. Type of these variable components is descriptive indicator. Then, preconditions of participation have been mentioned. In this stage, long-term strategic goals (responding to driving forces in basin scale) with vision outlining (1415) and middle-term strategic goals (responding to pressure in watershed scale and responding to state of ecological zone) with vision outlining (1405) has been determined in order to specify sustainable development planning in this land. In evaluation stage, priority of watersheds has been determined for related policies according to variable components. Appropriate strategies for decision making and monitoring process have been proposed. Finally, optimum mixture of policies has been suggested for sustainable development of this land. Discussion and Results: The role of human activities in degradation of this land (Urmia basin) is indisputable. Land degradation driving forces are as follows: 1. The rapid growth of urban population, 2. Lack of appropriate planning to meet population needs, 3. Major and nonproductive employment in agricultural sector, 4. Low literacy and old age in farmers with lands reformation and consequently patches fragmentation and decreasing production efficiency, 5. focus on water supply approach and dam making in water resource management, 6. Government incumbency and facilitating in distribution of agricultural inputs, particularly watersector such as hidden subsidies of government for water supply by lack of proper water pricing, 7. lack of participation of agricultural land use integrated management due to participation preconditions in Iran (government reliance on oil revenue), thus decision making for using land resource is merely government-owned. The most important pressure of human activity is also as follows: 1. Construction of road through the middle of the lake and consequently water flow disorder. 2. Irregular dam making and consequently silent rivers. 3. Land cover changes and land use conversions. 4. Changes in cultivation pattern and consequently consuming more water. 5. Serious irrigation deficiency. 6. Drilling numerous wells and exploitation of underground water beyond the limit of the water tables. 7. Non principal faulty salt exploitation and consequently dust aggravation. Conclusion: These pressures lead to dominant positive feedbacks, climatic disturbances and weather quality decadence, quality and quantity of water resource and decreasing and degradation of natural habitats. Finally, this land degradation will lead to increase in unemployment, immigration, social insecurity and protestation and diseases. This study by using SEA in Urmia watershed, has compiled sustainable development policies. The main advantage of this study is incorporation of the results of SEA and DPSIR. Completion of the method used and the result can be a guide for upstream document compilation for sustainable development planning and Table 1. Middle-term strategies and policies in order to respond to state of Lake Urmia ecological zone (Table Presented) programming in this study area. Also this is a proper model for compilation of upstream documents of management in other ecosystems and wetland areas. Final outcomes of this study are optimum integration of strategies and policies for responding to state, pressures and drivers.",,645-667,,3,40,,J. Environ.

For this reason they attract significant attention in marine conservation planning and often have been used to promote designation of reserve areas in many countries (e.g., Ligurian Sea, Moray Firth, Hawaiian Islands, The Gully, Wadden Sea, Banks Peninsula, and Golfo San José). Many policies are designed to protect cetaceans. For example, the Habitat Directive requires member states to select, designate, and protect sites that support certain natural habitats or species, such as the bottlenose dolphin, as Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) that aim to create a network of protected areas across the European Union known as Natura 2000. The boundaries of protected areas for cetacean species must be defined for management purposes. In recent years, many techniques have been developed to define the distribution of cetaceans in relation to habitat preferences. Although these models can provide an understanding of the ecological processes that determine species distribution, their application requires prior knowledge of the variables that should be included in the model, the interactions among these variables, and their effects on species distribution. Thus, the lack of available data in understudied areas precludes the application of these types of models. As an alternative, we describe a geostatistical approach to identifying areas that potentially should be designated as marine protected areas for cetaceans. We illustrate the application of the kriging algorithm to the bottlenose dolphin population that resides in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea. The data derived from a 7-year survey were used. The encounter rate is the only variable required for this method, making it very easy to apply. The resulting georeferenced and high resolution map includes areas most visited by bottlenose dolphins, which are called core areas. Core areas are helpful for establishing the boundaries of marine reserves for the protection of the species. The approach described herein is accurate, precise, unbiased, replicable to all highly mobile species and easy to understand by both researchers and policy makers. © 2014 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,449-458,,4,18,,J.

A history of ad hoc decisions in terrestrial and marine protected area planning has meant that many of these areas are contributing inefficiently to conservation goals. The conservation value of existing protected areas should be assessed when planning the placement of additional areas in a reserve network. This study tested (1) the effectiveness of protection for intertidal molluscs of a marine reserve (Bouddi Marine Extension, NSW, Australia) established in 1971, and (2) the contribution of the protected area to the conservation of regional species, assemblages, and habitats. The shell length and population density of one harvested (Cellana tramoserica), and three non-harvested species (Bembicium nanum, Morula marginalba, Nerita atramentosa) of intertidal molluscs were examined in the protected area and two reference locations over two seasons. The heavily collected limpet C. tramoserica was significantly larger in the protected area and was the only species to exhibit a significant difference. No species significantly differed in population density between the protected area and reference locations. Temporally replicated surveys of macro-molluscs at 21 locations over 75km of coastline identified that the existing protected area included 50% of species, two of five assemblage types and 19 of 20 intertidal rocky shore habitats surveyed in the study region. Reservation of a further three rocky reefs would protect a large proportion of species (71%), a representative of each assemblage and all habitat types. Despite originally being selected in the absence of information on regional biodiversity, the protected area is today an effective starting point for expansion to a regional network of intertidal protected areas. © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,111-123,,1,23,,Aquatic Conserv.

Among the available methods, radar remote sensing is increasingly used due to its advantages of being rarely affected by cloud cover and allowing image acquisition during both day and night. The growing availability over the past decade of free synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data, such as Sentinel-1 images, enabled the widespread use of C-band images for ship detection. There is, however, a broad range of SAR data processing methods proposed in the literature, challenging the selection of the most appropriate one for a given application. Here, we conducted a systematic review of the literature on ship detection methods using C-band SAR data from 2015 to 2022. The review shows a partition between traditional and deep learning (DL) methods. Earlier methods were mainly based on constant false alarm rate or polarimetry, which require limited computing resources but critically depend on ships' physical environment. Those approaches are gradually replaced by DL, due to the growth of computing capacities, the wide availability of SAR images, and the publication of DL training datasets. However, access to these computing capacities may not be easy for all users, which could become a major obstacle to their development. While both methods have the same objective, they differ both technically and in their approaches to the problem. Traditional methods mainly focus on ship size in spatial units (meters), whereas DL methods are mainly based on the number of ship pixels, regardless of image resolution. These latter methods can result in a lack of information on ship size and, therefore, a lack of knowledge that could be useful to specific applications, such as fisheries and protected area management.  © 2008-2012 IEEE.",,14353-14367,,,17,,IEEE J.

Methods: A total of 58 stands in different habitats (i.e., mountains, protected areas, wadis, coastal areas, farmlands, and ruderal areas) along the western region of Saudi Arabia were examined to record the different native and alien plant species in the study area. Results: The results revealed the existence of 146 plant species including 52 alien species. Alien plant species were characterized as casual (4 species), naturalized (45 species), and invasive (3 species). Invasive and casual species were mainly trees and shrubs while naturalized species were mainly annual herbs and subshrubs. Moreover, most of the invasive and casual alien species belonged to the American region while the naturalized species were mainly from the Saharo-Arabian region. Opuntia dillenii (Ker Gawl.) Haw. and Prosopis juliflora (Sw.) DC. showed the highest frequencies among the identified alien plant species as each was found in 4 out of the 6 examined habitats. Interestingly, P. juliflora was the only invasive species in the ruderal areas. O. dillenii dominated mountain habitats, protected areas, and farmlands. Canonical correspondence analysis showed that the distribution of O. dillenii was correlated with soil pH and organic matter content in the soil, while the distribution of P. juliflora showed a correlation with the soil contents of K, Ca, and Mn.

Present study aimed to record the distribution and diversity of fishes from different coral habitats along the coast of Pakistan. Additionally, potential threats and conservation strategies were also discussed. SCUBA diving was conducted at 10 different dive sites along the coastline. Relative abundance of the fishes was determined using visual techniques. Sea water physiochemical parameters were determined. A total of 58 fish species in 33 genera and 24 families were recorded at 10 different dive sites. High diversity occurred at Churna Island following Mubarak Village and Astola Island. Majority of the recorded fishes were planktivorous. Compare to Churna and Mubarak Village, physico-chemical parameters at Astola Island were found in limits as preferred by fish and coral communities for their proper growth. Fish accumulation appeared to be link with coral cover, diversity and growth forms. Low diversity at Astola Island was mainly due to habitat destruction caused by increasing anthropogenic activities (coral mining, careless SCUBA and skin diving, entangling of corals by fishing nets and mechanical damage by deployment of lobster pots). Conservation efforts should focus on the establishment of effective marine protected areas, involvement of different stakeholder (well reputed research institutes, universities, dive centers, tour operators, local community), making tourism laws and their implementation, rehabilitation of microhabitats for fish communities through the involvement of local community and creating awareness in general public on the significance (ecological, commercial) of these natural resources via print and electronic media for a sustainable ecotourism. Further, to better understand the effects, regular monitoring monitoring and scientific research (environmental, biological parameters) is recommended.

A joint approach is described that focuses on (a) measurements of surface water current and model data integrated with a dedicated software (LAVA, LAgrangian Variational Analysis), (b) measurements of rafting objects and their evaluation as an alternative way to species dispersal, and (c) a tool to automatically monitor propagules and plankton species in the water column. Studies on the dynamics of water currents demonstrated that the Gargano area has the potential to supply dispersal propagules to the Southern Adriatic both along the Italian coastline and offshore across the basin, thus providing important services to the dispersal processes and the connectivity routes among MPAs. The natural dispersion is however enhanced by floating objects, on which entire marine communities are living and travelling. The number of these objects has greatly increased with the introduction of human litter: in the Adriatic, man-made litter composes nowadays the majority (79 %) of all floating objects, with this corresponding to an almost fourfold increase in the abundance of floating objects since pre-industrial times. Such enhanced dispersion may benefit transmission of propagules from MPAs along biodiversity corridors, but may also enhance the arrival of invasive species. The direct observation of organisms can provide information on the species distribution and mobility. New technology (GUARD-1 system) has been developed to automatically identify spatial or temporal distributions of selected species in the water column by image analysis. The system has so far successfully detected blooms of ctenophores in the water column and is now being tested for identification of other zooplankton groups, such as copepods, as well as marine litter. This low-cost, long-lasting imaging system can be hosted on mobile devices such as drifters, which makes it very suitable for biological dispersal studies. © 2014, The Author(s).",,37-48,,1,26,,Rendiconti Lincei,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer-Verlag Italia s.r.l.,,,,Biodiversity; Biodiversity conservation; Biological couplings; C (programming language); Connectivity; Conservation; Dispersions; Environmental protection; Marine protected area; Marine protected areas; Multi-disciplinary approach; Ocean model; Ocean model and measurements; Offshore oil well production; Physical–biological coupling; Population distribution; Species distributions; Surface waters; Temporal distribution,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Connecting diverse marine and terrestrial environments, coastal ecosystems support rich biodiversity and provide a wide range of ecosystem services. Systematic mapping and quantification of coastal stressors globally can assist in directing conservation efforts in coastal areas, and help better understand the spatial correspondence between the distribution of marine and land-based stressors across coasts globally. To advance this goal, we quantified and mapped the presence and extent of 10 major terrestrial stressors and 10 marine stressors to develop a cumulative coastal footprint score. We found that the vast majority (97%) of all coastal grid cells globally (1 km pixels of the global coastline) had at least one major stressor present. Human population density was a strong predictor of coastal human footprint scores around the globe, and sandy beaches, which attract the public, had higher coastal footprint scores than non-sandy beaches. Overall, changes in sea surface temperature presented the stressor with greatest presence across all coastal areas, and with the highest average scores. At the country-sea scale, the coasts of Belgium, Monaco and Singapore had the highest overall coastal footprint globally, whereas Antarctica and the Arctic had the lowest coastal footprint scores. Beyond the polar coastal areas, we identified 160 areas of low human pressure (defined as areas >25 km2 composed of coastal grid cells in the lowest footprint decile), of which 38 (24%) were encompassed within protected areas, while 63 (39%) were unprotected, and the remainder were partially protected. We highlight the need to create platforms targeting both marine and land-based threats to coastal environments to further address the gaps in coastal area conservation and management. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,236,,Ocean Coast.

International conservation arenas have developed criteria for effective MPA networks, with the IUCN-WCPA [1] outlining five ecological guidelines in designing resilient MPA networks. This review examines recent literature to: (1) assess the degree to which the five IUCN guidelines address large migratory at-risk pelagic species; (2) assess differences between the scientific literature and IUCN guidelines in the manner in which effective MPA networks are conceptualized for these species; (3) identify additional relevant design themes for effective conservation of migratory pelagics through MPA networks not addressed by the IUCN guidelines; and, (4) identify challenges and opportunities for the design of MPA networks for this suite of species. Results indicate that neither the literature nor the IUCN-WCPA guidelines provide comprehensive strategies for designing MPA networks for large, migratory pelagic species. The study concludes that the IUCN-WCPA guidelines can be potentially effective for these species if migratory connectivity is fully accounted for and complementary adaptive and dynamic mechanisms are developed for integration across wider seascapes and sectors at large regional and global scales. To this end, updates to the design guidelines for MPA networks are warranted, particularly with respect to connectivity, adaptive and dynamic approaches, and international collaborations.

Objectives To estimate the association of influenza with subsequent bacterial infections after full adjustment for confounding by seasonal and long-term trends. Methods Time series of weekly counts of notified cases of invasive infections with Haemophilus influenzae, Neisseria meningitidis, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus pyogenes, in Montréal, Canada, 1996-2008, were modelled by negative binomial regression, with terms representing seasonal and long-term trends and terms for numbers of positive laboratory tests for influenza A and B. Results The associations of S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae and N. meningitidis with influenza disappeared after seasonal terms were added to the model. However, the influenza B count remained associated with the S. pyogenes counts for the same week and the following week: S. pyogenes incidence rate ratios were 1.0376 (95% CI: 1.0009-1.0757) and 1.0354 (0.9958-1.0766), respectively, for each increase of 1 in the influenza count. Conclusions Influenza B accounts for about 8percnt; of the incidence of invasive S. pyogenes infections, over and above any effect associated with modellable seasonal and long-term trends. This association of influenza B with S. pyogenes infections can be attributed largely to the years 1997, 2001, 2007 and 2008, when late peaks in influenza B counts were followed by peaks in S. pyogenes notifications.

Conversely, in developing country reserves information about dogs are comparatively scarce, particularly in terms of their interactions with local wildlife and their management, despite their high abundance and widespread distribution. We aimed to characterize domestic dog spatial distribution using occupancy modelling and estimate abundance in the Mata das Flores State Park (MFSP). We collected data from January to May 2017. We divided the survey into two sampling protocols: (1) interviews and active search on trails and roads in the region and (2) sand plots to detect the presence of dogs in the MFSP. We recorded a total of 132 individually identified domestic dogs between interviews with surrounding residents and records through active search. We recorded an average of 2 ± 1 dogs per household interviewed. Of this total, we recorded 89 individuals inside the MFSP, through 213 detections in the five months of sampling. Both the spatial distribution map and occupancy models for the species, indicated a higher occurrence in the side of the park faced to the urbanized area of Castelo municipality, totaling about 53% of the records. We also obtained a high number of records in the areas near the road that intercepts the park, with about 36% of the records.

Joint spatial planning can allow conservation and social resiliency goals to work in synergy. We present a case study integrating distribution information of a threatened saltmarsh bird, the eastern black rail (Laterallus jamaicensis jamaicensis), with social information to facilitate such joint planning. We constructed a distribution model for the species within an urbanizing coastal region (New Jersey, USA) and integrated this with publicly available parcel and protected area data to summarize ownership patterns. We estimated that c. 0.3–2.8% (c. 260–2200 ha) of available saltmarsh is occupied by eastern black rail, most of which is publicly owned (79%). Privately owned saltmarsh was spread across nearly 5000 individual parcels, 10% of which contained areas with the highest likelihood of rail presence according to our model (top quartile of predicted occupancy probabilities). Compared with all privately owned saltmarsh, parcels with probable rail habitat were larger (median: 5 versus 2 ha), contained more marsh (87% versus 59%) and were less economically valuable (US$11 200 versus US$36 100).

Recently, marine reserves have become one highly advocated form of marine conservation, and the number of newly designated reserves has increased dramatically. Reserves will be essential for conservation efforts because they can provide unique protection for critical areas, they can provide a spatial escape for intensely exploited species, and they can potentially act as buffers against some management miscalculations and unforeseen or unusual conditions. Reserve design and effectiveness can be dramatically improved by better use of existing scientific understanding. Reserves are insufficient protection alone, however, because they are not isolated from all critical impacts. Communities residing within marine reserves are strongly influenced by the highly variable conditions of the water masses that continuously flow through them. To a much greater degree than in terrestrial systems, the scales of fundamental processes, such as population replenishment, are often much larger than reserves can encompass. Further, they offer no protection from some important threats, such as contamination by chemicals. Therefore, without adequate protection of species and ecosystems outside reserves, effectiveness of reserves will be severely compromised. We outline conditions under which reserves are likely to be effective, provide some guidelines for increasing their conservation potential, and suggest some research priorities to fill critical information gaps. We strongly support vastly increasing the number and size of marine reserves; at the same time, strong conservation efforts outside reserves must complement this effort. To date, most reserve design and site selection have involved little scientific justification.

Ostrea edulis was designated a UK Biodiversity Action Plan Species and Habitat in 1995, and as a Feature of Conservation Importance (FOCI) within the UK Marine & Coastal Access Act 2009. To promote the recovery of oyster beds, a greater understanding of its abundance and distribution is required. Distribution of O. edulis across the proposed Blackwater, Crouch, Roach and Colne MCZ in Essex was determined between 2008 and 2012. Ostrea edulis were present in four estuary zones; with highest sample abundance in the Blackwater and Ray Sand zones. Size structure of populations varied, with the Ray Sand and Colne zones showing a significant lack of individuals with shell height <39 mm. Ostrea edulis occurred in highest number on shell substratum, followed by silty sediments. There were no significant associations between O. edulis abundance or size structure with water column Chl a, suspended solids, oxygen, nitrate or ammonium concentrations, temperature or pH. Highest abundance and most equitable population shell-size distribution for O. edulis were located within, or adjacent to, actively managed aquaculture zones. This suggests that traditional seabed management contributed to the maintenance or recovery of the species of conservation concern. Demonstration that the Essex estuaries were a stronghold for Ostrea edulis in the southern North sea area led to the designation of the Blackwater, Crouch, Roach and Colne estuaries Marine Conservation Zone in 2013.

To assist this process, we compare four methods for marine spatial planning of Madagascar's west coast. Input data for each method was drawn from the same variables: fishing pressure, exposure to climate change, and biodiversity (habitats, species distributions, biological richness, and biodiversity value). The first method compares visual color classifications of primary variables, the second uses binary combinations of these variables to produce a categorical classification of management actions, the third is a target-based optimization using Marxan, and the fourth is conservation ranking with Zonation. We present results from each method, and compare the latter three approaches for spatial coverage, biodiversity representation, fishing cost and persistence probability. All results included large areas in the north, central, and southern parts of western Madagascar. Achieving 30% representation targets with Marxan required twice the fish catch loss than the categorical method. The categorical classification and Zonation do not consider targets for conservation features. However, when we reduced Marxan targets to 16.3%, matching the representation level of the ""strict protection"" class of the categorical result, the methods show similar catch losses. The management category portfolio has complete coverage, and presents several management recommendations including strict protection. Zonation produces rapid conservation rankings across large, diverse datasets. Marxan is useful for identifying strict protected areas that meet representation targets, and minimize exposure probabilities for conservation features at low economic cost. We show that methods based on Zonation and a simple combination of variables can produce results comparable to Marxan for species representation and catch losses, demonstrating the value of comparing alternative approaches during initial stages of the planning process. Choosing an appropriate approach ultimately depends on scientific and political factors including representation targets, likelihood of adoption, and persistence goals. © 2012 Allnutt et al.",,,,2,7,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,animal; Animals; article; biodiversity; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; climate change; Climate Change; coastal waters; comparative study; CONSERVATION; conservation biology; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; DESIGN; economic aspect; EFFICIENCY; environmental exposure; environmental management; environmental planning; environmental protection; fish; FISHERIES; Fishes; fishing; intermethod comparison; Madagascar; MANAGEMENT; marine biology; Marine Biology; marine environment; methodology; Methods; PRIORITIES; procedures; PROTECTED AREAS; RESERVE NETWORKS; SOCIOECONOMIC DATA; species conservation; species distribution; species habitat; species richness; zonation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

They cover 70 percent of its surface and are home to a myriad of amazing and beautiful creatures. Life almost certainly originated in the oceans, yet the biological diversity of marine habitats is threatened by the activies of one largely hand-based species: us. The activities through which humans threaten marine life include overfishing, use of destructive fishing methods, pollution, and commercial aqua-culture. In addition, climate change and the related acidification of the oceans as well as stronger protection of marine ecosystems through a wll-enforced network of marine reserves. Presently, 76 percent of the world's fish stocks are fully exploited or overexploited, and many species have severely depleted, largely due to our growing appetite for sea food. Current fisheries management regimes contribute to the widespread market-driven degradation of the oceans by failing to implement and enforce adequate protective measures. Many policymakers and scientists now agree that we must adopt a radical new approach to managing the seas - one that is precautionary in nature and has the protection of the whole marine ecosystem as its primary objective. This ""ecosystem approach"" is vital if we are to ensure the health of our oceans for future generations. An ecosystem approach promotes both conservation and the sustainable use of marine resources in an equitable way. It is a holistic approach that considers environmental protection and marine management together, rather than as two separate and mutually exclusive goals. Paramount to the application of this approach is the establishment of networks of fully protected marine reserves - in essence, ""national parks"" of the sea. These provide protection of whole ecosystems and enable biodiversity to both recover and flourish. They also benefit fisheries by allowing for spillover of fish and larvae or eggs from the resrve into adjacent fishing grounds. Outside of the reserves, an ecosystem approach requires the sustainable management of fisheries and other resources. Demands on marine resources must be managed within the limits of what the ecosystem can provide definitely, rather than being allowed to expand as demographic and market forces dectate. An ecosystem approach requires protection at the level of the whole ecosystem. This radically different from the current practice, where most fisheries management measures focus simply on single species and do not consider the role of these species in the wider ecosystem. An ecosystem approach is also precautionary in nature, meaning that a lack of knowledge should not excuse decision-makers from taking action, but rather lead them to err on the side of caution. The burden of proof must be placed on those who want to undertake activities, such as fishing or coastal development, to show that these activities will not harm the marine environment. In other words, current presumptions that favor freedom to fish and freedom of the seas will need to be replaced with the new concept of freedom for the seas.",,Jan-56,,174,,,Worldwatch Pap.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,biodiversity; climate change; environmental protection; fishery management; habitat conservation; human activity; marine ecosystem; marine park; nature conservation; sustainable development,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Inhabited by groups of humans for over 12,000 years, the Espinhaço Range underwent significant change with European colonization, particularly due to the eighteenth century search for gold and diamonds, and Africans enslaved for this purpose. As a result of this process of occupation and interaction, several traditional rural communities were formed which inherited ecological knowledge and built highly complex ecosystem management systems. The interactions between these communities and rocky fields play a central role in the environmental history of the region. Being located at higher elevations these fields were generally used for grazing animals, plant extraction, and even agricultural crops and housing. The cultural and biological importance of the region due to existing socio-ecological processes have contributed to the formation of a diversity of people and forests which was made even more valuable with the creation of the Espinhaço Biosphere Reserve, in 2005. However, the current context of territorial disputes over this mountain range reflects the different meanings and social projects in the region. The advances of large capitalist enterprises based in the region contributes to a scenario of territorial and environmental conflicts where culturally differentiated communities try to defend their traditionally occupied lands against the advances of real estate speculation, overlapping full protection conservation units, eucalyptus monocultures and implementations of big industrial mining projects. In this context, the objective of this chapter is to describe the historical and political dimensions of the biocultural diversity of the Espinhaço mountain range, focusing especially on areas of rocky fields. The chapter critically reflects upon the naturalization of the political and economic processes that have come to threaten the cultural diversity and environment of this region due to ethnoecological and ecological policy. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.",,479-500,,,,,,,,,,,Springer International Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Ecology and Conservation of Mountaintop Grasslands in Brazil DOI: 10.1007/978-3-319-29808-5_20,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Ensuring that reserve populations are connected to each other and non-reserve populations by larval dispersal allows for recovery from disturbance and is a key aspect of resilience. In general, connectivity between reserves should increase as the distance between them decreases. However, enhancing connectivity may often tradeoff against a network's ability to representatively sample the system's natural variability. This ""representation"" objective is typically measured in terms of species richness or diversity of habitats, but has other important elements (e.g., minimizing the risk that multiple reserves will be impacted by catastrophic events). Such representation objectives tend to be better achieved as reserves become more widely spaced. Thus, optimizing the location, size and spacing of reserves requires both an understanding of larval dispersal and explicit consideration of how well the network represents the broader system; indeed the lack of an integrated theory for optimizing tradeoffs between connectivity and representation objectives has inhibited the incorporation of connectivity into reserve selection algorithms.

In Portugal, there are alarming estimates of seabirds bycaught per year in bottom gillnet fisheries, which get entangled during fishing operations, when the gear is close to the surface. In this study, a visual deterrent (scarybird) was tested in a fishing vessel operating bottom gillnets near and within Berlengas Islands SPA (Special Protection Area). Trials were conducted between 2019 and 2020, with 18 control and experimental fishing trips monitored by a trained observer. The scarybird proved to be an effective bird deterrent measure, affecting both the numbers and distribution of seabirds and keeping a large portion of birds away from the vessel during fishing operations, making them potentially less vulnerable to bycatch. The deterrent device was more effective in the closest area to the vessel (0–20 m) where there was a significant reduction in the number of gulls (Larus michahellis/fuscus, ?56 %) and northern gannets (Morus bassanus, ?72 %) close to the vessel, by comparison to control fishing trips. The use of this aerial deterrent device had no impact on the fishery's target catches and revenue, which contributed to a good acceptance by fishermen. This simple and “easy to implement” deterrent device has potential to be further tested as a bycatch mitigation measure in bottom gillnets but also in other gears, whenever interactions with birds occur mainly close to the surface. © 2023",,,,,285,,Biol.

These changes directly affect nutrient cycling, water availability, soil structure and climate, as vegetation cover is responsible for the stability of the basin. This study aims to map the land use and occupation classes, in order to verify and quantify the structural changes in the landscape that occurred between 1985 and 2019, in the Turiaçu River Basin. Because this region, in addition to having a high environmental complexity, has a lack of information. Therefore, there is a need to search for methodologies that help in the study of landscape analysis to understand certain ecological relationships. Therefore, based on the data from MapBiomas, it was possible to draw up a map of the evolution of land use and occupation and analyze the landscape metrics. The land use and occupation map was used to quantitatively characterize the area of the classes present in the basin. In the period studied (1985 and 2019), there were significant changes, such as the reduction in the area of forests and the emergence of new classes. The landscape metrics were obtained through the Patch Analyst extension, showing the evolution of the fragments structure during the years 1985 and 2019.

We identified eleven key areas that cover 10% of the Black Sea, the protection of which could attain realistic conservation targets. These sites are mainly located in neritic and coastal habitats, which also host a number of species that avoid the anoxic part of the ocean basin.

Benthic filter feeders are good indicators of changes in marine ecosystems providing information of biotic response to anthropogenic pressures. This investigation has aimed to evaluate changes in ?13C and ?15N isotopic values, growth and survival rates of Pinna nobilis in different marine environments exposed to distinct human activities. In addition, Bayesian isotopic models have been applied to decipher food sources contributing to the filter feeders' diet. Results have revealed isotopic variation of adductor muscle of P. nobilis according to a human gradient. Similarly, individuals of eutrophic environments showed higher growth rates than those from oligotrophic conditions, however chance of survival in eutrophic environments was lower, especially during the first life stages of P. nobilis. Additionally, similar trends were demonstrated between adductor muscle and mantle tissue of examined individuals, making the latter tissue an appropriate non-lethal sampling technique having implications for environmental and biological assessment and conservation issues. Results have also shown that P. nobilis seems to be relying on pelagic rather than benthic related food sources.

The holdfasts associated fauna is sensitive to the kelp fishery in northern Chile because one of the management recommendation is to harvest the whole plant. Considering the above, and the ecological role play by brown algae as foundation species, this study proposes the use of fauna inhabiting the holdfasts as an ecological indicator to monitor the integrity of exploited kelp beds. To accomplish this objective, the morphology of plants and holdfasts was evaluated together with the composition, abundance and community structure associated in three types of resource conservation strategies based on fishery management spatially explicit: open access areas and management areas (to harvest), and marine protected areas (with no harvest), in Atacama and Coquimbo (26-32°S). The results show that high harvest pressure on exploited kelp beds transforms the plant morphology and holdfast, altering the colonization process and species aggregation predicted for these biogenic habitats modifying the expected biodiversity. Thus, associated fauna in open access areas has lower species richness, abundance and biodiversity of organisms than their counterparts in management areas or marine protected areas. Moreover, the structure of the holdfast associated communities, are more variables in open access areas. The results suggest that holdfasts are representative micro-ecosystems of the intertidal environment, and can be used as sampling replicable and comparable units to monitor exploited kelp beds integrity in fisheries open access areas.

In the past, the belief that this environment represented one of the most stable and unproductive ecosystems on the planet has been refuted by scientific research and the interest of potential productive sectors evaluating seabed resources. Human activities that threaten the health of deep-sea threats are uncontrolled and unregulated fishing, deep-sea mining, oil spills, marine litter, and climate change. With recent advances in technology, the study of deep-sea coral communities is a growing subject. The deep-sea corals are long-lived, slow-growing, and fragile systems, making them especially vulnerable to physical damage. In the last 40 years, Colombia has discovered these communities’ existence scarcely distributed in its territorial waters. A representative and irreplaceable sample of deep-sea coral formations triggered in 2013 the establishment of the Corales de Profundidad National Natural Park, a Marine Protected Area (MPA), which holds 40% of the marine biodiversity known in the Colombian Caribbean continental shelf-slope break. The MPA’s essential ecological value is the Madracis myriaster species’ presence as a primary habitat-forming organism, a unique habitat for the Caribbean and the world. Here we describe the MPA creation process in three phases. Firstly, in the provisioning phase, three main threats from human activities are identified. Secondly, in the preparation phase, the area’s conservation objectives and management category are defined, and the negotiation process with the fishing, communications, and oil and gas economic sectors is described. Lastly, in the designation phase, three MPA scenario proposals were evaluated, assessing the minimum distance, the possible effects of activities in the area as the main criteria for the buffer zone and the management of possible future impacts. As a result, the most extended boundary was adopted, guaranteeing these communities’ conservation despite the limited information to carry out a complete planning process. The MPA designation is considered the first experience of deep communities in the Southern Caribbean and an example that it is possible to have effective conservation agreements with economic sectors. © Copyright © 2021 Alonso, Vides-Casado, Arias-Isaza, Zambrano, Rodriguez, Rocha-Gutierrez, Herron and Castillo.",,,,,8,,Front.

Yet, human activities are globally changing its structure and major components, including marine biodiversity. In this context, the United Nations has proclaimed a Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development to tackle the scientific challenges necessary for a sustainable use of the ocean by means of the Sustainable Development Goal 14 (SDG14). Here, we review how Acoustic animal Tracking, a widely distributed methodology of tracking marine biodiversity with electronic devices, can provide a roadmap for implementing the major Actions to achieve the SDG14. We show that acoustic tracking can be used to reduce and monitor the effects of marine pollution including noise, light, and plastic pollution. Acoustic tracking can be effectively used to monitor the responses of marine biodiversity to human-made infrastructures and habitat restoration, as well as to determine the effects of hypoxia, ocean warming, and acidification. Acoustic tracking has been historically used to inform fisheries management, the design of marine protected areas, and the detection of essential habitats, rendering this technique particularly attractive to achieve the sustainable fishing and spatial protection target goals of the SDG14. Finally, acoustic tracking can contribute to end illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing by providing tools to monitor marine biodiversity against poachers and promote the development of Small Islands Developing States and developing countries. To fully benefit from acoustic tracking supporting the SDG14 Targets, trans-boundary collaborative efforts through tracking networks are required to promote ocean information sharing and ocean literacy. We therefore propose acoustic tracking and tracking networks as relevant contributors to tackle the scientific challenges that are necessary for a sustainable use of the ocean promoted by the United Nations. © 2022 The Authors.

In this process, technological advancements have led to the emergence of more sophisticated wind turbines with higher hubs and larger swept areas to reduce the unit costs for power generation. However, there is also a growing concern about the visibility impacts of wind turbines. Spatial modelling of the potential visibility of wind turbines holds strategic information for wind power siting decisions. The visibility information is critical to breaking trade-offs between energy production and protecting the visual amenity of landscapes. Currently, public attention to the visual impacts of wind turbines tends to rise in countries with high wind power capacities. Decreases in property values due to wind turbine visibility and negative impacts on scenery are among the factors that draw public attention. These implications make it necessary to use spatial analysis and develop mitigation strategies based on the geospatial outputs. This paper aims to produce Potential Visibility Models (PVM) to analyse wind turbine visibility from candidate observation locations where the scenery is an important asset. These are residential buildings (RB), protected areas (PA), natural and archaeological sites (NAS), tourism development centres (TDC), roads (RD), and the coastal areas (CS). The results showed that potential turbine visibility varied across the study area considering the five qualitative visibility classes. The areas with “very low” and “low” potential visibility were proposed as candidate areas of low visual impact for wind power generation. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,152,,Renewable Sustainable Energy Rev,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,Conservation; Economic and social effects; Electric power generation; Geo-spatial; Geographic information systems; GIS; Growing demand; Impact; Impact mitigation; Model potential; Power supply; Renewable energy source; Spatial modelling; Technological advancement; Visibility; Visual impacts; Wind power; Wind turbines,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Location: Australia's continental exclusive economic zone and Norfolk Island region. Methods: A new Australia-wide, taxonomically consistent, dataset for distributions of deep-water octocorals (> 80 m depth) is used to calculate metrics of reserve performance for Australia's national marine reserve network. Results: Australia's reserve network represents 52% (270 of 518 species) of deep-water octocoral species. Coral representation is roughly proportional to spatial extent of reserves in different regions. The proportion of species with joint distributions in reserves and non-reserves ranges between 0% and 27% of the regional species pool; this may be a reflection of the high species turnover between sampling sites, and to some extent may also reflect sparse sampling coverage. Sites inside reserves have comparable species richness, contain similar numbers of rare species and do not differ in taxonomic diversity to sites outside reserves. Main conclusions: Australia's marine reserve network is a significant investment in conservation. The first broad biological evaluation of the network's performance, using deep-water octocorals, indicates that whilst the level of species representation is broadly proportional to the network's spatial coverage, reserves do not appear to be areas of significantly higher octocoral biodiversity compared to areas outside reserves and that there is low species representation within highly protected (IUCN I or II) zones. Considering constraints on reserve expansion and spatial re-configuration, ‘off-reserve’ management tools (e.g. fishery closures, environmentally responsible practices by extractive industries) are likely to be important to enhance overall conservation outcomes. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,90-103,,1,23,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,Alcyonacea; Anthozoa; Australia; biodiversity; COMMUNITY STRUCTURE; conservation management; continental margin; continental slope; coral; deep sea; deep water; FISHERIES; HABITAT HETEROGENEITY; IMAGERY; IMPACTS; invertebrate; investment; marine ecosystem; marine park; marine protected area; MEGABENTHOS; Norfolk Island; outer shelf; Pacific Coast [Australia]; protected area; rare species; RICHNESS; SEAMOUNTS; SELECTION; shelf dynamics; spatial distribution; species diversity; species richness; SUITABILITY; turnover,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The deleterious effects of fishing on coral reef herbivore populations are thought to be decreased through the establishment of no-take marine protected areas (MPAs). We conducted surveys to compare the biomass, diversity, and size structure of herbivorous reef fish within three functional guilds (i.e., grazers, scrapers, and browsers) and herbivorous urchin populations inside and outside of four of O‘ahu’s current MPAs to determine if they were effectively protecting herbivorous fishes and assess any resulting effects on sea urchin competitors. We also characterized the benthos, including the identification of common taxa in algal turfs, to evaluate interactions between herbivory and benthic communities. Urchins and grazing fishes accounted for the majority of herbivore biomass across regions of O‘ahu, and the dominance of urchins suggests that they significantly contribute to herbivory. Coral cover was a significant predictor of urchin biomass, but urchins did not have a significant relationship with herbivorous fish biomass or MPA protection. MPA protection and depth had positive effects on herbivorous fish biomass when examined in aggregate. However, these results were largely influenced by a large MPA protection effect in the Hanauma Bay MPA, compared to weaker MPA effects in K?ne‘ohe Bay, Waik?k?, and P?p?kea. Hanauma Bay had stark differences in the condition of reef habitats between the MPA and fished areas which may also confound the interpretation of a strongly significant protection effect. Depth and habitat complexity were significant predictors of both grazer biomass and aggregate herbivore community composition, suggesting that these bottom-up factors may have a greater impact on herbivorous fish biomass than protection. Turf communities were speciose and displayed similar trends to herbivore communities across regions, but within-region trends in the Hanauma Bay region suggest that turf species composition is not only dictated by top-down factors. Within-guild fish diversity was low across site and region, suggesting herbivory was dominated by a single or few species. The small size structure and densities of herbivorous fishes in MPAs across all regions limits their population-level functional and reproductive contributions. While MPAs serve as a popular fisheries management tool for coral reef environments, the limited benefits of MPAs for herbivorous fish and urchin populations around O‘ahu suggest a general need for improved fisheries management and enforcement, especially prior to the consideration of an expansion of the existing MPA network. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH, DE part of Springer Nature.",,305-322,,2,40,,Coral Reefs,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH,,,,Algal turfs; Anthozoa; biomass; community composition; coral reef; Coral reefs; Echinoidea; fishery management; fishing; habitat type; Hanauma Bay; Hawai‘i; Hawaii [United States]; Hawaiian Islands; herbivore; Herbivory; marine park; Marine protected areas; Martes; O‘ahu; Oahu; Pisces; size structure,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The ETP is a natural laboratory, a model for understanding the development of coral biotopes in a changing environment. We evaluate conservation strategies in seven countries in the ETP region (Peru was not included for apparent lack of coral habitats). A survey of current Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) highlights great variation in the number, scale and management approaches. Generally, MPAs with no-take areas are relatively uncommon, with multi-purpose areas favored. The Cabo Pulmo MPA in Baja California, Mexico demonstrates that when a local community is involved in the creation and enforcement measures of an MPA, conservation success can be achieved. Despite such apparent successes, inadequate and confusing legal practices have generally forestalled effective protection of coral ecosystems in the ETP. However, in several instances nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) have assisted with planning, negotiation and stakeholder engagement. Nonetheless these findings underscore how the establishment of an MPA does not guarantee that conservation goals will be achieved. This calls for a new approach that incorporates contributions from ecological studies along with a high investment in capacity development and training to ensure that the goals of MPAs better complement effective fisheries and ecosystem management within and outside their borders. © Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2017.",,565-591,,,8,,,,,,,,Springer Nature,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Coral.

Previous high-intensity El Nińo events (1982-83 and 1997-98) caused high coral mortalities and deterioration of coral reef structures along the Eastern Tropical Pacific, affecting both ecosystem and associated economical activities. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the most recent El Nińo event on coral reefs from Cocos Island and the Pacific coast of southern Costa Rica. Methods: Coral reefs were surveyed before (2013-2014) and after (2016) the disturbance, using underwater visual censuses within belt transects, to quantify the bottom coverage at different depths. Results: In general, average live coral cover decreased 50% after the 2015-2016 El Nińo event, with Golfo Dulce being the most affected area with 75% of live coral cover decline. However, in certain localities such as Isla del Coco and Isla del Cańo, the effects of El Nińo were apparently minimal, since no substantial loss of live coral cover was detected. Differences in the level of deterioration found between coral reefs could be related to several factors, including the age of the protected area, the distance to centers of human population, and the effectiveness in the application of management strategies. Conclusions: The synergistic impact of the 2015-16 El Nińo event and other stressors (e.g. illegal fishing and unregulated coastal human development) increased the levels of disturbance on coral reefs, threatening their structure and functioning. It is necessary to strengthen conservation strategies in order to improve the resilience of coral reefs to the impact of natural and anthropogenic disturbances. Concrete actions such as coral reef restoration, marine environmental education, and marine spatial planning must become important tools to maintain the good health of coral reefs and ensure the sustainability of the goods and services provided by these ecosystems. © 2020, Universidad de Costa Rica.

One of the demographic bottlenecks is the high mortality in the early stages of development. Detailed knowledge of the cycle and survival rates of these phases will allow us to assist in population recovery and reef restoration. Objective: To describe the embryogenesis and larval stages obtained by assisted fertilization and measure the settlement and survival rates of larvae on artificial substrates, before being outplanted to the reef. Methods: Six days after the full moon in September 2021, gamete bundles were collected from eight O. annu-laris colonies in Los Corales del Rosario and San Bernardo National Natural Park, Colombia and brought to the laboratory. Cross fertilization was carried out and embryonic and larval development were followed until larval settlement and survival was recorded until day 41. The larvae were kept in three tanks with filtered sea water with 126 tagged substrates, previously conditioned with crustose coralline algae. The substrates were then outplanted to the reef. Results: The onset of embryonic development occurred 1.11 hAF (hours after fertilization), when cells showed signs of the first cleavage, and lasted until 104.59 hAF when they began to metamorphose. Larvae settlement was observed on the sixth day AF. Twenty-one days after fertilization, zooxanthellae were found. Post-settlement larval survival was 27.5 %. Conclusions: In this first sexual propagation effort using O. annularis in Colombia, 1.4 % of competent larvae completed the entire development process. Although low survival rate, these results add to coral restoration efforts in the Caribbean in which species are assisted to increase the survival of corals in their early stages of development. © 2023, Universidad de Costa Rica.

Only 153 of these MPAs have a management plan (MgP) -the basic tool required for an effective management. Amongst these, only 66 are actually managed, i.e. they have the staff and resources required to operate the plan. A common characteristic of these MPAs is the lack of standardized indicators of their performance. In order to address this issue, an alternative approach was developed based on the assessment of management performance using the expert knowledge and perceptions of managers operating MPAs, a universal source of information that could allow overcoming the usual gaps due to the restrictions in coverage of scientific monitoring and assessments. MgPs showed differences among countries but were homogeneous within each country, reflecting the usual top-down approach in the establishment of MPAs. Compliance with the qualitative objectives present in MgPs was higher than compliance with quantitative ones (87% versus 50%), and the MPAs that most successfully achieved their objectives were those with regular monitoring. This analysis also shows that beyond these objectives, the establishment of an MPA and the activities developed as a consequence of its creation have a positive socio-economic impact on the local human community. © 2016",,159-168,,,76,,Mar.

These MPAs were managed by 118 plans and each one could be applied to between one and 11 MPAs, with a mean of 2 MPAs per plan. Of these plans, 81% had been implemented since 2000, motivated by the approval of different directives at the European and global levels that promoted important changes in national policies. Information about the design and implementation of each management plan was summarized through a questionnaire, and was analysed to describe the different phases of the design and implementation and determine the duration of each phase. Four main failures were identified in the design and implementation of plans: (i) Gaps between MPA designation and plan implementation, with a mean period of 10.9 years; (ii) only 70% of the analysed MPAs shared a plan; (iii) stakeholders were involved only in the revision phase of the plan design in 90% of the cases, while their involvement in the other critical design processes occurred in less than 30% of the cases; (iv) 39% of operating plans were not renewed on time and had a delay of 4 years on average, extending the duration of plans up to almost twice their planned 5- to 6-year duration. These failures represent clear shortcomings in MPA performance, because: (i) during the gap period the MPAs were “paper parks”; (ii) sharing a plan among MPAs does not allow to define specific objectives for every MPA involved; (iii) actively involving stakeholders in all phases from the development of the plan to its daily management is an important point for the long-term success of a plan; and (iv) plan renewal is an essential process to ensure the continuous improvement and innovation in management required for the good performance of a MPA. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,192,,Ocean Coast.

Over the last 10 years, the number of marine SCP studies has increased exponentially, yet there is no structured or reliable way to find information on methods, trends, and progress. The rapid growth in methods and marine applications warrants an updated analysis of the literature, as well as reflection on the need for continuous and systematic documentation of SCP exercises in general. To address these gaps, we developed a database to document SCP exercises and populated it with 155 marine SCP exercises found in the primary literature. Based on our review, we provide an update on global advances and trends in marine SCP literature. We found accelerating growth in the number of studies over the past decade, with increasing consideration of socioeconomic variables, land-sea planning, and ecological connectivity. While several studies aimed to inform conservation decisions, we found little evidence of input from practitioners. There are important gaps in geographic coverage and little correspondence with areas most threatened. Five countries lead most studies, but their networks suggest potential for capacity building through collaborations. The varying quality and detail in documentation of studies confirmed the limited opportunities to develop and assess the application of best practice in conservation planning. A global database to track the development, implementation, and impact of SCP applications can thus provide numerous benefits. Our database constitutes an important step towards the development of a centralized repository of information on planning exercises and can serve several roles to advance SCP theory and practice: it facilitates assessing geographic coverage and gaps; scientists and practitioners can access information to identify trends in the use of data, methods, and tools; reviewers and editors of journals can assess whether studies have covered important literature and developments; donors and non-government organizations can identify regions needing further work; and practitioners and policy-makers can learn from previous plans. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,369-382,,,227,,Biol.

Achieving these goals requires well-connected networks of marine reserves that maximize larval connectivity, thus allowing exchanges between populations and recolonization after local disturbances. However, global warming can disrupt connectivity by shortening potential dispersal pathways through changes in larval physiology. These changes can compromise the performance of marine reserve networks, thus requiring adjusting their design to account for ocean warming. To date, empirical approaches to marine prioritization have not considered larval connectivity as affected by global warming. Here, we develop a framework for designing marine reserve networks that integrates graph theory and changes in larval connectivity due to potential reductions in planktonic larval duration (PLD) associated with ocean warming, given current socioeconomic constraints. Using the Gulf of California as case study, we assess the benefits and costs of adjusting networks to account for connectivity, with and without ocean warming. We compare reserve networks designed to achieve representation of species and ecosystems with networks designed to also maximize connectivity under current and future ocean-warming scenarios. Our results indicate that current larval connectivity could be reduced significantly under ocean warming because of shortened PLDs. Given the potential changes in connectivity, we show that our graph-theoretical approach based on centrality (eigenvector and distance-weighted fragmentation) of habitat patches can help design better-connected marine reserve networks for the future with equivalent costs. We found that maintaining dispersal connectivity incidentally through representation-only reserve design is unlikely, particularly in regions with strong asymmetric patterns of dispersal connectivity. Our results support previous studies suggesting that, given potential reductions in PLD due to ocean warming, future marine reserve networks would require more and/or larger reserves in closer proximity to maintain larval connectivity. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,e671-e691,,2,24,,Global Change Biol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,"animal; animal dispersal; Animal Distribution; Animals; BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION; biological model; California; CLIMATE-CHANGE; Conservation of Natural Resources; conservation planning; ecological network; ecological process; ecosystem; Ecosystem; environmental protection; fish; Fisheries; fishery; Fishes; global warming; Global Warming; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; greenhouse effect; Gulf of California; GULF-OF-CALIFORNIA; HABITAT PATCHES; larva; Larva; LARVAL CONNECTIVITY; larval dispersal; larval transport; marine conservation; marine park; marine reserve network; Models, Biological; ocean warming; Pacific Ocean; physiology; plankton; Plankton; POPULATION CONNECTIVITY; procedures; PROTECTED AREAS; recolonization; recruitment (population dynamics); REEF FISH RECRUITMENT; SMALL-SCALE FISHERIES; species conservation; systematic conservation planning",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Systematic conservation planning (SCP) provides a framework to identify areas where actions can be effective in addressing these threats, while minimizing the costs of interventions. This study investigated the application of SCP in the Gulf of California, a marine hotspot where seven prioritization exercises have been undertaken. The review of planning exercises showed that the use of SCP methods has progressed slowly (gaps include planning for land-sea connections and ecosystem services) and highlighted benefits and difficulties of applying SCP principles and tools. Despite some convergence, important spatial differences were found in priorities between plans. Convergence was evident in well-studied shallow and benthic marine ecosystems. There were also important differences related to the planning approach, methods and extent. Divergence between methodological and spatial similarities between plans suggests that additional factors (e.g. manually delineating priority areas, incorporating updated datasets, random error), in addition to data and objectives, play an important role in defining the distribution of conservation priorities. According to expert opinion, the implementation of new marine protected areas (MPAs) in the region has been influenced by some of the planning exercises. However, uptake of planning outputs has progressed slowly for many reasons (e.g. conflicting mandates and interests between organizations, limited technical capacities and resources, insufficient political commitment). Other benefits of planning included: developing institutional skills and knowledge; improving collaboration and coordination between organizations (including agencies, and local, regional and national NGOs); converging on the need to assess priorities for marine conservation in regional context; and building trust among organizations. The existence of multiple marine conservation plans in the Gulf of California also highlighted some of the complexities and benefits of having multiple sets of priorities. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,483-505,,4,23,,Aquatic Conserv.

Consequently, effective conservation planning must consider the social and ecological links between realms and follow a cross-realm approach to allocate land/water uses and conservation actions to mitigate cross-realm threats and maintain cross-realm ecological processes. Cross-realm planning requires integrating multiple objectives for conservation and development, and assessing the potential co-benefits and trade-offs between them under alternative development scenarios. Despite progress in cross-realm planning theory, few fully-integrated and applied cross-realm plans exist. The gaps between research and implementation are not unique to cross-realm planning, but are accentuated by the complexity of spatial decision-making entailed. Based on a collaborative process including scientists, resource managers and policy-makers, we developed an operational framework for cross-realm planning based on up-to-date thinking in conservation science, but offering practical guidance to operationalise real-world planning. Our approach has a strong theoretical basis while addressing the visions and needs of decision-makers. We discuss the foundations and limitations of current approaches in cross-realm planning, describe key requirements to undertake this approach, and present a real-world application of our framework.

Out of its significance for wintering shorebirds it has been included in the Ramsar List of Wetlands of International Importance as well as in international protection networks such as the European Natura 2000 and Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas-BirdLife International. In a sediment analysis conducted in the year 1999, the wetland was found to have been contaminated by potentially toxic trace metals, to wit: Cr, Cu, Ni, and Pb. Sediment samples retrieved in 2014 to make an updated assessment of the condition of the ecosystem showed evidence of the presence of selected trace elements, namely, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn, within or slightly above the background ranges of local, regional, and general references. In the 15-year time frame between the two samplings there has been noticeable change in the relationship between nature and society as a consequence of the entry into force of a number of regulations aimed at avoiding the emission of contaminants; among others, the ban of Pb in gasoline, the deployment of wastewater treatment plants according to the European Water Framework Directive, and the limitation of the use of Cu pesticides. With the ensuing drop of human pressure, the self-purifying capacity of the ecosystem has effectively contributed to the wetland's recovery. Nevertheless, the application of a normalized enrichment factor to the more recent set of samples suggests the presence of relict low contamination by Cd, Cu, and Ni in localized areas. The compared analysis of the wetland condition in the two years is a sign of the success of the policies and regulations for environmental protection, but further work and more effectiveness are necessary in order to preserve threatened ecosystems of such importance as the Umia-Grove wetland. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.",,803-812,,,637-638,,Sci.

This has important implications for population monitoring and conservation. Aims To quantify the extent to which two distinct breeding populations of a migratory shorebird, the Black-tailed Godwit Limosa limosa, overlap spatially, temporally and in their use of different habitats during winter. Methods We use mid-winter counts between 1990 and 2001 to identify the most important sites in Iberia for Black-tailed Godwits. Monthly surveys of estuarine mudflats and rice-fields at one major site, the Tejo estuary in Portugal in 2005-2007, together with detailed tracking of colour-ringed individuals, are used to explore patterns of habitat use and segregation of the Icelandic subspecies L. l. islandica and the nominate continental subspecies L. l. limosa. Results In the period 1990-2001, over 66 000 Black-tailed Godwits were counted on average in Iberia during mid-winter (January), of which 80% occurred at just four sites: Tejo and Sado lower basins in Portugal, and Coto Donana and Ebro Delta in Spain. Icelandic Black-tailed Godwits are present throughout the winter and forage primarily in estuarine habitats. Continental Black-tailed Godwits are present from December to March and primarily use rice-fields. Conclusions Iberia supports about 30% of the Icelandic population in winter and most of the continental population during spring passage. While the Icelandic population is currently increasing, the continental population is declining rapidly. Although the estuarine habitats used by Icelandic godwits are largely protected as Natura 2000 sites, the habitat segregation means that conservation actions for the decreasing numbers of continental godwits should focus on protection of rice-fields and re-establishment of freshwater wetlands. © 2010 British Trust for Ornithology.",,381-391,,3,57,,Bird Study,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,biomonitoring; breeding population; CLIMATE; ECOLOGY; ENERGY; foraging behavior; GROUNDS; habitat conservation; habitat use; ISLANDICA; Limosa; Limosa limosa; MARINE; migratory behavior; mudflat; paddy field; population decline; population structure; RICE FIELDS; seabird; SHOREBIRDS; Southern Europe; spatiotemporal analysis; SPECIALIZATION; species conservation; WATERBIRDS; wetland,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Seen this importance, the objective of this work is to analyze the forms of use and occupation, in addition to pointing out the conflicts between the natural and human dynamics that exists on this beach so privileged by its landscape potential. From a methodological point of view, through studies from a newspapers library, analyzes of the dynamics of waves and drone flights, this paper highlights the damage that exists between anthropic interventions and the natural dynamics of Praia de Morro Branco. The results showed several conflicts, which confirms the hypotheses of this work, that points out to an ineffective coastal management, among them: the beach huts are in fact in an irregular space, exposed to constant risks due to oceanographic events; the Conservation Unit of the Cliffs, created in 2004, suffers from summer houses invasion; and the landscape potential of the beach, which sustains tourism, the main local economy, may be compromised by urban interventions. Protected by the environmental legislation, the work concludes that there is a need to rethink the anthropic interventions on Praia de Morro Branco, to guarantee not only the environmental dynamics, but also coastal tourism, which is essential for the local populace. © 2020, Universidade Federal de Pernambuco.

In estuarine ecosystems that are included in marine protected areas (MPA), it is important to conduct biomonitoring over time to monitor the effects of xenobiotics on bioindicator species such as the catfish Cathorops spixii. This study aims to evaluate the toxicogenetic signals in C. spixii from a MPA (Cananéia-Iguape region, Brazilian coast). These genotoxic signals are demonstrated by the presence of micronuclei (MN) and abnormalities in erythrocytes (AE). This study also takes into account the environmental differences signaled by the water's properties (temperature, salinity, pH, DO, dissolved nutrients, and particulate material) over time (2009, 2014, 2017, and 2018). The results show that in the northern region of the estuary, and mainly in 2009, the water properties reveal the influence of the river in the form of the lowest levels of salinity and pH and the highest levels of nutrients. The most significant levels of suspended particulate material and chlorophyll-a are found in the southern region of the estuary, mainly in 2017 and 2018. In general, the C. spixii from the northern region had better well-being than catfish from the more preserved (southern) region. The data on MN and AE show evidence of toxicogenetic damage occurring over time and clastogenic/aneugenic effects mainly in fish sampled in 2018. The presence of a new AE, first recorded in C. spixii sampled in 2018, and named here as double bubbled, is another indicator of toxicogenetic effects. Finally, although the southern region of the estuary has better abiotic properties and conditions for primary production, the obtained toxicogenetic data for C. spixii reinforces the need for – and encourages the implementation of – monitoring actions in this marine protected area using bioindicator species of contamination. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,799,,Sci.

LMNP is an important protected area in Brazilian north coast which protects a unique wetland ecosystem composed of sand dunes fields and a coastal vegetation called restinga. Supervised mapping of LMNP and a surrounding buffer of 3 km was carried out through high resolution and fine scale (1:5000) satellite images. The mapped area was subdivided in 1000 ha hexagonal Analysis Units (AU) and the following landscape metrics were calculated for each one of them: cover area (CA) of each soil cover class - dune fields (CA-DUNES), water bodies (CA-WATER), dense restinga (CADENSE), scattered restinga (CA-SCATTER), grassland (CA-SANDY), mangroves (CA-MANG), anthropogenic activity (CA-ANTRO) and, secondary vegetation (CA-SECOND); Landscape Shannon Diversity Index (SHDI), and; percentage of native vegetation cover (NV?COV). Pearson correlations were performed between the CA of each class and SHDI to identify the classes most correlated to CA-ANTRO. Our results showed that anthropic classes (crops, trails, and villages) had a stronger correlation (Pearson Correlation, r ? 0.65) with phytophysiognomies of dense restinga, secondary vegetation and SHDI, thus indicating that the land use conversion occurs in dense restinga areas and promotes vegetation secondarization, as well as increasing fragmentation. At least, 42% of the dense restinga habitats was destroyed due to human activities. Five conservation and restoration strategies were proposed in a local scale depending on the percentage of native vegetation cover on each AU, from the most to less conserved: (a) only conservation; (b) conservation with management; (c) management; (d) management and restoration; and, (e) restoration. The implementation of Agroforestry Systems with agro-successional restoration goals was recommended as an alternative for land use. © 2019",,,,,51,,J. Nat.

Of particular relevance is the Aichi Biodiversity Target 11 of the Convention on Biological Diversity, where signature countries agreed to protect and effectively manage 10% of coastal and marine areas by 2020. The convention also specifies a number of qualitative elements that MPAs should encompass in order to be effective. But as 2020 approaches, this objective is far from being achieved and the deadline is necessitating a pace of planning, declaration, management and evaluation of the Mediterranean network of MPAs that is unattainable for most of the Southeast Mediterranean riparian states. The Aichi target 11 objectives encompass countries with remarkably different economical, historical and cultural backgrounds and varying degrees of technical capacity and political stability. Here we explore how the area-based conservation policy at both the national and international level is evolving in the Mediterranean in relation to the Aichi target 11 objectives. We evidence strong shortcomings in the Mediterranean MPAs highlight potential risks derived from conservation policy failure, and propose alternatives towards effective conservation. We suggest that the prevailing area-based strategy in the Mediterranean should be substituted by a procedure that is not time-limited and that is based on environmental and social sciences, supported by marine spatial planning and balancing the scientific and socioeconomic drivers of change in a specific national or sub-regional context. © 2018",,187-196,,,225,,Biol.

The MPA list and polygons were extracted from the MPA database of the European Environment Agency (EEA) and completed with available zoning systems (all were filtered for their marine area reported under the Marine Strategy Framework Directive). Fully-overlapping MPAs were merged. In the resulting dataset, MPA features are provided (gathered from EEA, WDPA, ProtectedSeas), including the year of designation, designation types (e.g., national, Natura 2000) and subtypes (e.g., reserves, national parks), database identifiers (WDPA, Natura 2000, OSPAR, etc.), IUCN categories, and main protection focus. We provide summarized data on maritime activities that overlap with MPA polygons from two types of datasets: activities-focused datasets (national marine spatial plans, and additional European and regional databases, like EMODnet) and MPA-focused datasets gathering data from management plans (ProtectedSeas, expert-based assessments about OSPAR and Portuguese MPAs). This dataset therefore compiles data that could be gathered from accessible legal frameworks regarding aquaculture, fisheries, anchoring, infrastructures (including harbors and renewable energy), mining, transport, coastal land-based uses (desalinization, sewage plants) and other non-extractive uses (e.g., recreational), making them readily accessible. Using the MPA Guide classification system, we computed two scenarios of potential impact for each activity, which were used to assess two scenarios of protection levels per MPA. Some MPAs could not be associated with any MPA features, regulations, or protection levels. Finally, we detail the protocol to match information from multiple databases (e.g., with MPA polygons formatted differently) and provide a quality check by comparing this dataset to previous assessments. This dataset was used to analyze MPAs’ protection levels across countries, regions and MPA features (e.g., IUCN categories, designations). It was also used to investigate the sources of information available and the levels of regulations for each maritime activity in EU MPAs. This dataset can therefore be used for further analyses on the use of EU MPAS to regulate activities and to compare with future assessments or with additional data we did not have access to (e.g., gathered at national scale).

Associating this information with a new mesoscale bathymetry compilation permits estimating the percentage of surface light reaching the seabed. A video annotation dataset derived from a deep kelp survey conducted on the Formigas Bank is subsequently used to estimate the light levels experienced by these bionomically-crucial frondose algae. Empirical light-based thresholds for the lower infralittoral boundary in the Azores are derived from the deepest kelp occurrences. This information is eventually used to map the geographical extent of this major marine biological zone in the archipelago, yielding an area estimate of 894.7km2. The average depth of the infralittoral limit in the Azores is established at 69m.It is determined that the present Azores marine protected area (MPA) network already covers 28.9% of the region's infralittoral grounds. However, island-specific values highlight that MPA percentage coverage varies between islands with values ranging from a marginal coverage of 7.3% (on Terceira Island) to 100% coverage around the island of Corvo and the Formigas Bank. These results suggest that conservation managers may make use of the current spatially-based protection framework of the archipelago to, on the whole and for this specific major habitat, surpass the goals suggested by international conventions and conservation fora for MPA coverage. However, an analysis of the statutory MPA regulations further reveals that measures in place are insufficient to provide a no-take and no-disturbance protection of infralittoral biotopes. In order to achieve the recommended strict protection of the currently protected infralittoral zones, conservation measures ought to be enhanced. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.",,141-151,,,100,,J.

Whale watching is vital to supporting conservation efforts and provides numerous benefits to local communities including educational opportunities and job creation. However, the sustainability of whale-based ecotourism depends on the behavior and health of whale populations and it is crucial that ecotourism industries consider the impact of their activities on whale behavior. To address this statement, we collected behavioral data (e.g., change in swimming direction, frequency of breaching, slap behaviors, diving, and spy hops) from humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) in the marine protected area of Las Perlas Archipelago off the Pacific coast of Panama. The goal was to determine if tourist vessel presence had an influence on whale behaviors. We conducted this study during the humpback whale breeding season from August through September 2019. Based on 47 behavioral observations, we found that higher boat density corresponded with humpback whales’ frequency of direction changes, which based on previous literature is believed to be a sign of disturbance. Alternatively, no changes in behavior were observed with varying boat density. This result is important given Panamanian regulations first implemented in 2007 by Resolution AMD/ARAP No. 01, 2007 prohibit whale-based tourism from disturbing whales, which is explicitly measured by changes in whale behavior. Because there is no systematic monitoring of whale watching activity to enforce the regulations, there is currently little compliance from tour operators and tourists. The integration of animal behavior research into management planning should result in more effective regulation and compliance of such conservation policies. © Copyright © 2020 Amrein, Guzman, Surrey, Polidoro and Gerber.",,,,,7,,Front.

Unfortunately, the degradation and deforestation of mangroves has frequently occurred. Therefore, it is important to understand the vulnerability of mangroves and its impact on blue carbon storage for effective mangrove management and coastal planning. This study aims to assess the vulnerability of mangroves and its effect on blue carbon storage in the coral triangle region of Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia. The vulnerability assessment included factors such as exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity. Blue carbon storage was evaluated based on carbon stock in sediment, biomass, and total carbon stock in mangrove ecosystems in both protected and unprotected areas. The mangrove ecosystem in the protected area of Rawa Aopa Watumohai National (RAWN) Park showed lower vulnerability due to lower exposure, lower sensitivity, and higher adaptive capacity. On the other hand, mangrove ecosystems in unprotected areas such as Tinanggea (TNG), Kendari Bay (KDI), and Staring Bay (STR) exhibited moderate to high vulnerability due to higher exposure, sensitivity, and lower adaptive capacity. Mangroves in RAWN Park, which were less vulnerable, had higher blue carbon storage in sediment (381.64 tons C/ha), biomass (312.65 tons C/ha), and the entire ecosystem (706.76 tons C/ha). These values were significantly higher (p<0.05) compared to those in TNG (306.66 tons, 144.15 tons, and 448.37 tons C/ha, respectively), KDI (262.08 tons, 227.73 tons, and 470.76 tons C/ha, respectively), and STR (169.44 tons, 66.66 tons, and 253.27 tons C/ha, respectively). The high vulnerability of mangrove ecosystems resulted in reduced carbon storage in the coastal regions of Southeast Sulawesi. Therefore, efforts such as rehabilitation and restoration, legislation, and conservation should be prioritized to enhance blue carbon storage, and other ecosystem services provided by mangroves in the coral triangle region of Southeast Sulawesi.

Global climate change is one of the most significant factors that is causing changes on coastal area. The climate warming during the last decades has been evident in the Baltic Sea region. The effects of climate change on seacoast can be seen in the changes of sea level, coastal hydrodynamics and ice conditions as well as in human actions. On regional and local level the change of coastal landscape generally depends on shoreline stability. Most vulnerable to erosion are densely populated coastal areas with cities. The coastal erosion is an increasing problem, it also causes reducing and damaging coastal communities including habitats of NATURA 2000. During the last decades, the coastline and morphology of sandy beaches have noticeably changed at Tahkuna Peninsula. Different methods have been used for landscape investigation. Landscape changes were studied by using maps of different periods and analysed with computer programs. Method of landscape complex profile was used as a basis for research. The aim of the study was to find relationships between coastline changes and dynamics of coastal ecosystems. Due to the intensive erosion the study area with habitats of sandy beaches (1210, 1640), embryonic, white, grey dunes (2110, 2120, 2130) has decreased. Repeated surveys in the eastern part of peninsula (Tőrvanina) show the disappearance of a 45-m-wide strip of land during 1976-1998. The eroded deposits are partly transported to the south where the sandy spit is rapidly elongating, there takes place development of new plant communities. Changes along the coast are result of combination of natural processes and human influence (Lehtma harbour). The study area has a high nature conservation and recreational value. Therefore it is essential to continue monitoring and to improve the planning processes in these vulnerable areas. © 2012 IEEE.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Ocean: Past, Present Future - IEEE/OES Baltic Int.

The southernmost Brazilian rocky reefs are the southern limit of distribution for 96% of the tropical ichthyofauna of the western Atlantic. The Arvoredo Marine Biological Reserve is the only nearshore no-take marine-protected area (MPA) located in this transition zone. The main aim was to investigate how the populations of rocky reef fish species vary in density and biomass in space and over time, inside and outside the Arvoredo MPA. This study presents results based on a 9 year (2008–2017) underwater visual census monitoring study to evaluate the density and biomass of key fish species. Variations in density and biomass were detected for most species. Factors and mechanisms that may have influenced spatial variation are habitat structural complexity and protection from fisheries. Temporal variations, otherwise, may have been influenced by species proximity to their distributional limit, in synergy with density-dependent mechanisms and stochastic winter temperature oscillations. The MPAs harbour higher density and biomass for most species. Nonetheless, a prominent temporal decline in the recruitment of Epinephelus marginatus calls into question the continuous effectiveness of the MPA. © 2020 The Fisheries Society of the British Isles",,845-859,,3,97,,J.

To protect the waters of the Florida Keys from further degradation, the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS) was established by the federal government in 1990. In 1993 the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) identified domestic wastewater as a major source of nutrient loading to FKNMS waters. Many dwellings and commercial establishments in the Keys use onsite wastewater treatment systems (OWTS), so the Florida Keys Onsite Wastewater Nutrient Reduction Systems (OWNRS) Demonstration Project was initiated in 1995 to demonstrate the use of OWTS which could significantly improve treatment and reduce the concentrations of nutrients discharged to the near-shore environment of the Keys. To meet this objective, a unique test facility was designed and constructed to evaluate various OWNRS processes simultaneously, under controlled conditions, using a common wastewater source. Five principle wastewater treatment process streams were operated concurrently at the test facility, with several unit processes in each stream. Unit processes evaluated included attached growth and suspended growth biological processes (both aerobic and anaerobic), physical/chemical processes (adsorption, precipitation, ion exchange) and natural systems utilizing drip irrigation for plant uptake and evapo-transpiration Influent and effluent quality were monitored monthly with 24-hour flow-composite samples. Results after the first year of operation indicate that OWNRS effluent concentrations of 5 mg/L CBOD5, 5 mg/L TSS, 10 mg/L total nitrogen, and 1 mg/L total phosphorus are achievable without chemical addition using combinations of the processes tested. Although excellent treatment was achieved with OWNRS, significant additional construction, operation, and maintenance was required for these systems in comparison with conventional OWTS.",,436-445,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000073679700050,,,,,,,advanced wastewater treatment; nitrogen removal; nutrient removal; onsite wastewater treatment; phosphorus removal,,"Sievers, DM",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,ON-SITE WASTEWATER TREATMENT: PROCEEDINGS OF THE EIGHTH NATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON INDIVIDUAL AND SMALL COMMUNITY SEWAGE SYSTEMS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Yet in marine reserve no take zones (NTZs) or reefs at depths of >18 m) where commercial fishing is either not permitted or impractical, alternative methods of lionfish control are required. This study evaluates the potential for conservation volunteers to act as citizen scientists monitoring invasive lionfish populations and to support removal efforts in Bacalar Chico Marine Reserve (BCMR), Belize. Two underwater visual census techniques were trialled with conservation volunteers, each with associated benefits and drawbacks. A log of opportunistic lionfish sightings on SCUBA dives has been used to record sightings per unit effort (SPUE) data 2011–2015. In 2014, more rigorous lionfish focused searches (lionfish-adapted belt transects) were introduced. Opportunistic lionfish sightings contributed to a five year SPUE dataset that suggests that lionfish population growth rate has slowed in BCMR, where a lionfish removal program was also carried out by conservation volunteers over the same timeframe. However, lionfish focused searches showed that the mean density in 2014 was high (mean = 27.05 ± 8.77 fish ha-1, 1–30 m) relative to lionfish populations in their native ranges, particularly at sites at depths > 18m (mean = 43.39 ± 13.76 fish ha-1, 18–30 m).

Location South Africa - the south coast between Cape Agulhas and the Eastern Cape/;Kwazulu-Natal border, and eight MPAs within that area. Methods We used interpolated seaweed distribution records from all available sources, in 50-km coastal sections. Cluster analysis (Jaccard Average Linkage) of species presence/;absence data provided measures of similarity between coastal sections and between MPAs. Complementarity analyses identified the sequence of 'importance' of sections/;MPAs for conserving seaweed species. Results Species presence/;absence data indicated two main groups, representing western (cooler water) and eastern (warmer water) biogeographical divisions, as well as several biogeographical subdivisions within each of these groups. Complementarity analysis yielded a sequence of 'importance' of coastal sections (in terms of the highest number of species included) that began with a section just east of central in the Agulhas Marine Province, around Port Alfred, where there is no MPA. This was followed by the easternmost section (warmest water), which contains the Pondoland MPA, and then by the westernmost (coolest water) section, containing the De Hoop MPA. Similar analysis of the actual species collected in MPAs showed a generally similar pattern. Main conclusions Seven current MPAs and one proposed coastal MPA in the Agulhas Marine Province appear to be well distributed and well sited to include (conserve) the full biogeographical range of seaweeds. However, if further MPAs are to be considered, the Port Alfred area is recommended for improved conservation. This study did not examine estuaries, which may require improved conservation efforts.

We collected samples in the RPPN Alto-Montana along an altitudinal gradient from 1400 to 2100 m, between the dry and rainy seasons of 2018 and 2019. During this period, the sampling method utilizing Van-Someren Rydon traps totaled 3,936 hours and the effort using sweep nets totaled 246 hours. A total of 1,253 butterflies distributed across 124 species and six families of diurnal butterflies were observed (Hesperiidae, Lycaenidae, Nymphalidae, Papilionidae, Pieridae, and Riodinidae). Nymphalidae was the most representative family, followed by Hesperiidae, Pieridade, Lycaenidae, Papilionidae and Riodinidae. Moreover, we recorded 37 species with only one individual (singletons) and 20 species with only two individuals (doubletons), totalling 57 species, which corresponds to 46% of all sampled richness. The rarefaction curve did not reveal a tendency toward stabilization. However, the indices showed slightly higher values for the 124 species sampled. The analysis performed using the Bootstrap estimator predicted a total of 143.22 species (± 10.87 SE), with a further 19 additional species than observed. Chao 1 predicted 153.42 (± 11.82 SE), and Jackknife 1 predicted 164.00 (± 16.29 SE) species, with 29 and 40 additional species than the observed, respectively. Our study contributes to the knowledge of butterfly biodiversity in Serra da Mantiqueira and reveals a high species richness for the RPPN Alto Montana, especially considering the relatively small area. In addition, our study provides the first inventory of butterflies for the RPPN Alto Montana, thus supporting further studies investigating the butterfly richness in the Serra da Mantiqueira region. Finally, our findings of endemic, rare, and endangered butterfly species highlight the relevance of further conservation strategies to be considered for the Protected Area’s Management Plan.

It is the 25th largest city in the world and, among large cities, is also one of the highest. In common with other cities in Latin America, a large part of its urban growth during recent centuries has been unplanned and informal. The introduction of green spaces into urban planning in Bogotá began in the mid-20th century, but was first included in official legislation during the 1990s through the concept of Ecological Main Structure (EMS). Initially developed by Dutch scholars, EMS was brought to Colombia via biological conservation practitioners as a means of enhancing biological connectivity in rural and natural landscapes, extended in this case to urban landscapes as a top-level planning instrument. EMS originally included a variety of components, from protected areas and biological conservation tools to environmental urban elements - the emphasis being on biodiversity conservation, without sufficient recognition of specific urban structures and functions. This process led to conceptual disciplinary-based divergence and conflicting political interpretations. The current emergence of EMS as a planning tool for urban regions represents an opportunity for integration, although the risk of divergent interpretations remains, as no integrative conceptual framework has yet been developed. In this paper we review the concepts underlying EMS that have been incorporated within urban and regional planning, especially those of ecological networks and green infrastructure, and also diagnose conceptual and institutional barriers to its current integration, challenges and opportunities which are set in the context of an emerging urban region. We propose a trans-disciplinary framework for multi-level integration of EMS, along a gradient from wild environments to built structures that incorporates emerging concepts such as urban biodiversity, ecosystem services and design in the urban landscape, with the aim of contributing to the creation of an urban landscape that is resilient to environmental change and suitable for human well-being and adaptation. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media New York.",,723-739,,4,16,,Urban Ecosyst.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Bogotá; Design in urban landscape; Ecological main structure; Ecological networks; Ecosystem services; Green infrastructure; Urban biodiversity; Urban regions,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In predicting the effects of climate change on their future distributions, we used intermediate and pessimistic socio-economic pathway scenarios (SSP3 70 and SSP5 85, respectively) considering projections for 2081–2100. Furthermore, we calculate the extent of future potential distribution covered by the current spatial configuration of integral protection areas to assess if they will still be effective in conserving the species in the future. We did this by binarizing predicted potential distribution with a threshold of 0.8. Our data pointed out that the species will have their potential distribution area altered for 2081–2100, considering climate change scenarios. Tropidurus hygomi, Glaucomastix abaetensis, and G. itabaianensis overlapped along their predicted potential distribution for the present and future. The same was found to Ameivula nativo and Liolaemus lutzae. Moreover, our results showed a potential marked reduction of potential distribution covered PAs. The recognition of potential distribution areas discussed here enables focal and urgent conservation strategies, besides bringing up alerts on protected areas’ role in conserving these species under climate change scenarios. We propose creating planning policies using space and time criteria and developing long-term studies, besides promoting educational programs aiming at environmental conservation. Thus, we expect our research to contribute to the protection of the land over Brazilian restingas-endemic lizards' distribution. © 2024 The Author(s).

Thus, Ecological Niche Models are important tools to provide information on the potential distribution of the species and determine where they will be requirements in future. Mainly, rare species or with restricted areas of occurrence, because this information are essential to understanding of their living area, microhabitat use, or natural history, serving as a basis for preservation actions. Xenohyla eugenioi is a poorly known species, restricted to transition areas of Caatinga and Atlantic Forest from Minas Gerais to Sergipe. This species exhibits little biological information available and few specimens housed in museums, which difficulty to plan conservation strategies. Here our aim was modeling the current and future distribution and discussing about conservation of Xenohyla eugenioi. We searched for occurrence records through literature and scientific collections data. For the future (2071-2100), we used ensemble models from three algorithms (CTA, GLM and ANN) to two shared socioeconomic pathways (SSP370 and SSP585 scenarios). This species has approximately 650 km in straight line between the extreme localities, occurring mainly in bromeliads near to water bodies. The Ensemble method indicates the most suitable areas of occurrence were over ecotonal range between Caatinga and Atlantic Forest and our projections have showed suitable conditions to highlands (up to 1.000 m). However, in the future, is expected total erosion of the X. eugenioi populations, due climatic changes, which reinforce the caution to conservation of this poorly known species and necessity of studies about its ecology, natural history and distribution. Moreover, we hope that this work can contribute to the discovery of new records, characterizing the narrower niche space than this species may actually inhabit. © 2024, Universidade de Sao Paulo.

Here, we assess the status and trends of coverage and protection, ecological conditions, marine resource use, human well-being, and management effectiveness of MPAs in the Sunda Banda Seascape (SBS), Indonesia, and provide the first comprehensive overview of marine conservation in the region. The SBS, located in the world's epicenter for marine biodiversity, has 85 designated MPAs (8.1 million ha) as of 2018, accounting for 35% of the national target of 23.4 million ha MPAs by 2020. Most SBS MPAs were recently initiated or established, and their management was strongly influenced by policy and governance changes at the national and provincial levels. SBS MPAs protect more than 30% of mangrove, seagrass, and coral reef habitats in the seascape, and surveys indicate relatively healthy coral reef conditions. Fishing is one of the most common livelihoods in the MPA communities; 90% of fishers use traditional gear types for fishing and destructive fishing is identified as the greatest threat to marine resources in the MPAs.

This NTA protected a unique area worldwide, with extraordinarily high giant clam densities (up to 337 individuals per m2 on 20-m transect). In 2012, a stock assessment survey revealed a dramatic decrease of the clam population. The reduced densities peaked at 38indm-2 and the stock in the NTA decreased from 20.1±6.0million to 1.9±0.55million clams (mean±95% confidence interval). Losses of similar proportions were observed throughout the atoll. Remarkably, the 83% overall loss of this natural resource used daily for consumption and for exports of clam meat to Tahiti Island went unnoticed by the local population. Field clues, including the size of live juveniles attached to the inside of dead shells, pointed to a massive mortality occurring about 3years before the 2012 survey. Examinations of sea surface temperature satellite data identified a high range of temperature variations before March 2009. In agreement with past and recent events in other atolls, this anomaly is the most likely explanation of the massive loss of giant clams in Tatakoto Atoll, although the exact hydrological and biological secondary mechanisms that occurred in the lagoon remain unclear. The consequences of the massive die-off inside and outside the NTA require new long-term management strategies, by reinforcing the top-down national giant clam management arrangements and by setting flexible management objectives across a network of islands. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,190-199,,,160,,Biol.

The use and meaning of the 'surrogate' concept in ecology and conservation planning contexts is a typical example. Surrogates are entities such as species, environmental variables or habitats, which are used to represent a target entity such as genes, species, ecosystems or related metrics. 'Pattern-based surrogacy' identifies effective surrogates using statistical congruence, while 'selection-based surrogacy' identifies effective surrogates through a notional conservation plan or prioritization analysis where sites are added to a set of protected areas, often using a complementarity criterion between sites. With this clear framework in mind, an investigation of the coral reef literature revealed that most published studies on surrogates of reef biodiversity refer in fact to pattern-based surrogates. Fundamentally, there is nothing wrong with both approaches. However, efficient pattern-based surrogates are often recommended for conservation planning, implying that they could be efficient selection-based surrogates. In fact, efficient pattern-based surrogates are not necessarily efficient selection-based surrogates and vice versa. The reason is the complementarity rules used by selection algorithms.

Spatial conservation planning seeks optimal designs of PAs that meet multiple targets such as biodiversity representation and population persistence. Since connectivity between PAs is a fundamental requirement for population persistence, several methods have been developed to include connectivity into PA design algorithms. Among these, the eigenvalue decomposition of the connectivity matrix allows for identifying clusters of strongly connected sites and selecting the sites contributing the most to population persistence. So far, this method was only suited to optimize an entire network of PAs without considering existing PAs in the new design. However, a more cost-effective and realistic approach is to optimize the design of an extended network to improve its connectivity and thus population persistence. Here, we develop a flexible algorithm based on eigenvalue decomposition of connectivity matrices to extend existing networks of PAs while optimizing connectivity and population growth rate. We also include a splitting algorithm to improve cluster identification. The new algorithm accounts for the change in connectivity due to the increased biological productivity often observed in existing PAs. We illustrate the potential of our algorithm by proposing an extension of the network of ~100 Mediterranean marine PAs to reach the targeted 10% surface area protection from the current 1.8%. We identify differences between the clean slate scenario, where all sites are available for protection, irrespective of their current protection status, and the scenario where existing PAs are forced to be included into the optimized solution. By integrating this algorithm to existing multi-objective and multi-specific algorithms of PA selection, the demographic effects of connectivity can be explicitly included into conservation planning. © 2014 The Authors.",,273-282,,3,38,,Ecography,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The process of siting new protected areas is called spatial conservation prioritization and is often formulated as a mathematical problem to be solved with the aid of computer software. Integrating multidimensional continuous metrics of genome-wide genetic diversity in spatial conservation prioritization involves significant challenges in terms of computation speed and memory requirements. In this study, we tested and compared several approaches to approximate the multidimensional continuous metrics of genetic diversity using multidimensional discrete genetic clusters or unidimensional discrete conservation features. To this end, we applied two tools for spatial conservation prioritization, RAPTR and PRIORITIZR, to genomic datasets of two fish species (the white seabream Diplodus sargus and the red mullet Mullus surmuletus) sampled throughout most of their distribution range in the Mediterranean Sea. We found that most of the approximations tested either did not achieve all genetic conservation targets or resulted in excessively high conservation costs. Nonetheless, approaches based on multidimensional genetic clusters allowed generating prioritizations with relatively small gaps in genetic objectives at very high computation speed. This might be an interesting option for exploratory or interactive analyses such as those performed in workshop with stakeholders. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,292,,Biol.

Conservation actions such as marine protected areas, marine reserves, and other effective area-based conservation measures, are pivotal tools for protecting coastal biodiversity. However, to be effective, conservation area networks must be planned through a systematic conservation planning (SCP) approach. Recently, such approaches have begun to orient their goals toward the conservation of different biodiversity facets and to integrate different types of data. In this review, we illustrate how genetic data and molecular techniques can bring useful knowledge for SCP approaches that are both more comprehensive (sampling the full range of biodiversity) and more adequate (ensuring the long-Term persistence of biodiversity). With an emphasis on coastal organisms and habitats, we focus on phylogenetic analysis, the estimation of neutral and adaptive intraspecific genetic diversity at different spatial levels (alpha, beta, and gamma), the study of connectivity and dispersal, and the information obtainable from environmental DNA techniques. For each of these applications, we discuss the benefits of its integration into SCP for coastal systems, its strengths and weaknesses, and the aspects yet to be developed.  © The Author(s), 2023.

Location: The Mediterranean Sea, where sea surface temperatures are expected to strongly increase by the end of the 21st century, represents an archetypal situation with a dense MPA network but resource overexploitation outside. Methods: Using an individual-based mechanistic model of larval transport, forced with an emission-driven regional climate change scenario for the Mediterranean Sea, we explored the combined effects of changes in hydrodynamics, adult reproductive timing and larval dispersal on the connectivity among MPAs and their ability to seed fished areas with larvae. Results: We show that, over the period 1970-2099, larval dispersal distances would decrease by 10%, the continental shelf area seeded with larvae would decrease by 3% and the larval retention fraction would increase by 5%, resulting in higher concentration of larvae in smaller areas of the continental shelf. However, connectance within the MPA network would increase by 5% as more northern MPAs would become suitable for reproduction with increasing temperatures. We also show that the effects of changes in adult reproductive timing and larval dispersal on connectivity patterns are additive. Main conclusions: Climate change will influence connectivity and the effectiveness of MPA networks, and should receive more attention in future conservation planning and large-scale population dynamics. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,139-150,,2,21,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Biophysical model; climate change; conservation planning; Conservation planning; continental shelf; ecological modeling; Epinephelus marginatus; exploitation; growth rate; hydrodynamics; Larval dispersal; Larval growth rate; larval transport; marine park; Mediterranean Sea; population dynamics; reproduction; Reproductive timing; sea surface temperature; temperature effect,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Surprisingly, it is rarely used as a biodiversity proxy in protected area network assessments. In this research, we evaluate if biases exist in the locations of Canada's protected areas with respect to productivity and assess the distribution of anthropogenic threats to protection along productivity and topographic axes. Productivity was expressed as the annual minimum and integrated fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (fPAR) and related seasonality (defined as variation in fPAR over a year), as acquired by remote sensing. Results indicate that, overall, protected areas are slightly biased to lower productivities (higher seasonalities), but are relatively unbiased along elevation. Sites at high elevations, high seasonalities, or low productivities are extremely well represented, but they account for a very small proportion of Canada's area overall and under protection. However, the productivity characteristics of protected areas are heterogeneous across reserve characteristics and space; biases are greater and more variable when considering individual International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) categories, protected area size classes, or ecozones. The spatial and environmental correlates of anthropogenic pressures (proximity of roads and settlements in the greater park ecosystem) to protected areas in the forested ecozones were evaluated with partial linear regression models. Threats were strongly spatially structured. Reserve characteristics (productivity, elevation, size, IUCN category) shared about half of this spatial structure, explaining ?25% of the variation in threat distributions. Small and productive protected areas tended to occur closer to human populations and roads, respectively, and are thus expected to face greater threats to biodiversity. High-elevation protected areas generally occurred farther from both roads and settlements.

A dedicated scientific investigation into the occurrence and distribution of island associated cetaceans in Palau was conducted in 2012 and 2013.Aims The aim of this project was to investigate the diversity and distribution of cetaceans in Palau to inform management and build local capacity in cetacean science.Methods Following a feasibility study in 2010, a vessel-based visual and acoustic line transect survey was conducted in 2012, covering a survey area of 4319 km2. The survey was repeated and expanded in 2013 using aerial methods. Additionally, small boat work was conducted in areas with high cetacean density to obtain genetic, acoustic, and photographic samples. In 2019, a vessel-based visual and acoustic survey of the Southwest Islands was conducted.Key results By combining the survey results with anecdotal sightings, a cetacean species inventory for Palau was established. The presence of 15 species was confirmed, while four species were identified as probably present and three as likely.Conclusions Survey results contributed to the management of cetaceans in the Palau Marine Mammal Sanctuary. The surveys raised local interest in cetaceans and, through public outreach and training, precipitated advancements in capacity building for cetacean management, along with a baseline for ongoing monitoring.Implications This study provided the first systematic, scientific investigation using multiple survey methods into the occurrence and distribution of cetaceans in Palau, highlighting the importance of conserving cetacean populations in this region. The first investigation into the diversity and distribution of cetaceans in the Republic of Palau was conducted. It resulted in a cetacean species inventory confirming the presence of 15 species and identifying seven as either probable or likely present.

They have become a key driver for policy and decision-making in many regions, including in the Western Indian Ocean (WIO) region. This paper analyses national and regional progress towards achieving SDG 14 in the WIO. Progress of four of the SDG 14 targets that were due in 2020 are analysed. SDG 14 has influenced regional and national policy agendas but current tools to measure this progress fail to provide a detailed picture of achievement towards each target for countries in the WIO. The paper highlights that the region has shown limited success in achieving the targets and SDG 14 targets are unlikely to be reached by 2030. The WIO region lags behind with regard to marine conservation related targets. More than half of the countries have low to average progress on SDG 14.2 on marine areas being covered by area-based management tools. Even more countries are far from achieving the 10 % coverage of marine protected areas under SDG 14.5. The region is performing better with regards to fisheries management targets with most countries classified as making average to good progress towards SDG 14.4 on sustainable stocks and SDG 14.6 on addressing harmful subsidies and IUU fishing. The diversity of the socio-economic and governance contexts in the WIO countries contributes to different levels of progress. The fairly positive ecological state of the WIO supports progress towards SDG 14. Understanding barriers to progress is fundamental to help with the prioritisation of the actions needed to meet the SDG 14 targets by 2030. Regional actors and policy-makers will need to increase their ambitions to meet the SDG 14 targets and ensure a healthy ocean and improved prospects for the region and its citizens. To account for barriers in progress towards SDG 14, the WIO region needs appropriate reporting and monitoring mechanisms and it should follow a holistic regional approach of ocean governance integrating conservation and sustainable resource use. It needs to build capacity and knowledge sharing for implementation of SDG 14 and ocean governance at various levels. Improved implementation of SDG targets will have social, economic and environmental benefits within the region. © 2022, Western Indian Ocean Marine Science Association.

At the national level, the ocean has received increasing consideration, with many coastal states and islands adopting blue economy strategies and frameworks, and putting the ocean at the centre of development. SDG 14: Life Below Water includes ten targets, four of which (14.2, 14.4, 14.5 and 14.6) expired in 2020. This paper presents the state of progress on these four targets that address marine protection and fisheries management. The study is based on an assessment of the indicators established by the United Nations for each target, using publicly available databases allowing to measure the achievement of the targets. The analysis shows that achievement of these four targets is meagre. Only two countries achieved three of the four targets, while no country achieved all four. Most countries were classified as far from achievement or having made low progress. Across the four targets, SDG 14.5 on marine protected areas saw the highest number of achievers but also a high number of countries still far from achievement. Europe and Oceania had the highest number of countries having performed well in terms of achievement while Africa and the Middle East showed the most countries with limited achievement. These results indicate that there is still a long way to go to achieve these four targets in 2030. To move towards achievement, more investment is needed towards priority countries that have seen limited achievement but also some adaptation might be needed in terms of monitoring processes. Finally, it seems useful at this point to reflect on what has been achieved and how countries, especially those facing various socio-economic and political challenges, can fully benefit from current processes towards implementing SDG 14. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,227,,Ocean Coast.

Network analysis offers valuable methods to disentangle intangible relations between and within the social and ecological systems. In this way, it could be possible to identify and integrate multiple social and ecological variables that inevitably affect collaborative environmental governance's effectiveness. Nevertheless, this research area is still nascent, with few methodologies and concrete applications reported in the scientific literature. With this study, we aim to propose a robust novel application of a network methodology to enrich the evaluation of the effectiveness of collaborative environmental governance for nature and biodiversity, which has been applied through the analysis of social-ecological relationships that emerged from EU-cofounded LIFE-NAT projects. Specifically, we focus on LIFE-NAT projects implemented in the Veneto Region (Italy) financed in the last programming period (2014–2020). Through formulating four research hypotheses to be tested through Exponential Random Graph Models, we analyze 13 LIFE-NAT projects involving 83 social actors and 29 Natura 2000 (N2000) sites composed of 57 protected habitats. Results show that LIFE-NAT projects in Veneto Region stimulate polycentric governance. Nevertheless, they still need to concretize a multi-actor and multilevel governance. Furthermore, the analysis highlights that selected LIFE-NAT projects implement activities in N2000 sites able to support ecological connectivity and synergies across marine, freshwater, and land habitats through the bridging role of forests, especially in estuarine and coastal areas. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,148,,Environ.

In order to implement effective conservation strategies for species of this taxa, it is crucial that movement patterns at a range of spatiotemporal scales are defined. To gain insight into such patterns, we deployed a combination of acoustic (n = 21) and satellite (n = 12) tags on reef manta rays Mobula alfredi in the British Indian Ocean Territory Marine Protected Area (BIOT MPA) annually from 2013 through 2016. An extensive array of acoustic receivers (n = 52) were deployed across the archipelago to record the movements of mantas throughout the MPA. Data revealed large individual variation in horizontal movement patterns, ranging from high local site fidelity (<10 km) for up to 3 yr, to large-scale regional movements (>200 km) around the entire MPA. Depth time-series data recorded vertical movement patterns consistent with other epipelagic elasmobranch species, including oscillatory diving and deep dives to greater than 500 m. Though no individuals were directly recorded departing the MPA throughout the study, the gaps in detections and estimated travel speeds documented here indicate that movement of individuals outside of the BIOT MPA cannot be discounted. Collectively, our data suggests that, with effective enforcement, the current size of the BIOT MPA is providing substantial protection to its reef manta ray population. Characterization of movement patterns across ontogenetic classes, however, is required to fully characterize the spatial ecology of this species and ensure protection across all cohorts of the population. © Inter-Research 2020.",,137-153,,,639,,Mar.

The threats from rocket launches are potentially associated with biomes, coordinates, and proximity to oceans. In particular, threatened terrestrial species in Tropical and Subtropical Moist Broadleaf Forests are more vulnerable to these risks compared to species in other biomes.

The reality is that whereas nearly 15 per cent of land is protected, just over 1 per cent of marine space is similarly protected. The challenge is to reach “a global representative system” of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), recognizing that countries need to establish cooperative mechanisms at ecoregion level. The purpose of this paper is to address the options and trends for countries to develop transboundary cooperation through MPAs. The authors address several case studies, focusing on political, governance and financing frameworks. The main findings revealed that countries use MoU, MoA or Joint Declaration supported on international conventions as the WHC, Ramsar Convention and CMS. Governance models seem to include political/management/technical levels, with political decisions translated into action plans carried out by joint committees, supported by national institutions and scientific/technical boards. Also the involvement of civil society in management is a growing driving force. Financing transboundary MPAs is going through an evolutionary process, from an exclusive binomial national budgets/UNEP-GEF to a wider financial net through ecotourism income and private donors. The different solutions found point out myriad possibilities where transboundary cooperation is envisaged.

Despite a 40-year history of conservation in a country known for its conservation efforts, the greater Osa Bioregion and its complex of protected areas face an uncertain future. Habitat fragmentation and genetic isolation threaten the long-term survival of the Osa's signature species, while Osa policymakers with limited resources struggle to address dilemmas posed by illegal resource extraction and uncertain and changing land tenure. More recently, the socio-political landscape has changed with the emergence of a 'landed conservation gentry,' sharing the Osa's ecological wealth with the poor frontier campesino. A review of conservation efforts in the Osa through the political ecology construct of bioregionalism provides an opportunity to further define this construct in the distinct context of neotropical forest conservation. In this article we review the theoretical underpinnings of bioregionalism, focusing on its value for neotropical forest conservation, and apply it to the mosaic of public and private lands that encompass the Greater Osa Bioregion. We characterize the complex and shifting governance framework for Osa conservation focusing on the current conservation initiative, the Osa Biological Corridor project. We conclude with the suggestion that bioregionalism's emphasis on reconciliation of humans and their environment - 'Reinhabitation' - An implicit goal of the Osa Biological Corridor project, may offer the best hope for the future. © 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

Understanding how cumulative stressors affect coral reef vulnerability is critical for successful reef conservation now and in the future. In this review, we present the case that strategically managing for increased ecological resilience (capacity for stress resistance and recovery) can reduce coral reef vulnerability (risk of net decline) up to a point. Specifically, we propose an operational framework for identifying effective management levers to enhance resilience and support management decisions that reduce reef vulnerability. Building on a system understanding of biological and ecological processes that drive resilience of coral reefs in different environmental and socio-economic settings, we present an Adaptive Resilience-Based management (ARBM) framework and suggest a set of guidelines for how and where resilience can be enhanced via management interventions. We argue that press-type stressors (pollution, sedimentation, overfishing, ocean warming and acidification) are key threats to coral reef resilience by affecting processes underpinning resistance and recovery, while pulse-type (acute) stressors (e.g. storms, bleaching events, crown-of-thorns starfish outbreaks) increase the demand for resilience. We apply the framework to a set of example problems for Caribbean and Indo-Pacific reefs. A combined strategy of active risk reduction and resilience support is needed, informed by key management objectives, knowledge of reef ecosystem processes and consideration of environmental and social drivers. As climate change and ocean acidification erode the resilience and increase the vulnerability of coral reefs globally, successful adaptive management of coral reefs will become increasingly difficult. Given limited resources, on-the-ground solutions are likely to focus increasingly on actions that support resilience at finer spatial scales, and that are tightly linked to ecosystem goods and services.",,48-61,,1,21,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000346698100008,,,,,,,BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION; CHANGE VULNERABILITY; climate change; CLIMATE-CHANGE; coral reefs; ECOLOGICAL RESILIENCE; ecosystem vulnerability; environmental management; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; LINKING THEORY; ocean acidification; OF-THORNS STARFISH; OUTBREAKS; PROTECTED AREA NETWORK; social-ecological system; structured decision-making; WATER-QUALITY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Location: Danajon Double Barrier Reef, Bohol, Philippines. Methods: Reef fish abundance and size structure, by species, were obtained monthly using replicated underwater visual belt transects (n = 8; 70 × 5-m belt transects) over 3 years (2002-2005) at eight sites that included six marine reserves and two unprotected reef areas. We analysed species accumulation curves, diversity indices and abundance-biomass comparison (ABC) curves within and across the study sites to assess the influence of protection duration and location. Results: Analyses showed that longer protection duration impacted reef fish diversity at both inshore and offshore sites by shifting ABC curves from higher abundance than biomass curves at fished sites to higher biomass than abundance curves at most of the protected sites. Protection duration did not significantly influence either the rate of species accumulation within sites or the 12 diversity indices measured across the study sites. The offshore sites consistently showed higher rates of species accumulation and diversity indices values than inshore sites with similar protection duration. One protected offshore young marine reserve site that has been assessed as the least well-managed showed patterns more consistent with the fished sites. Main conclusions: Analyses showed that protection duration mainly impacted diversity by increasing the dominance of large-bodied species and enhancing total biomass. Besides protection duration, reserve location influenced species accumulation curves and diversity indices. © 2010 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,529-536,,4,16,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,abundance; barrier reef; biodiversity; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; biomass; Camotes Sea; conservation; Conservation; conservation management; CORAL-REEF FISHES; Danajon Double Barrier Reef; DENSITY; diversity index; fish; management practice; marine park; marine protected areas; Marine protected areas; no-take zones; No-take zones; offshore application; overfishing; Overfishing; Pacific Ocean; PATTERNS; Philippines; POPULATION; RECOVERY; RICHNESS; size structure; small-scale fisheries; Small-scale fisheries; spatiotemporal analysis; species diversity,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The environment suffers transformations from the anthropogenic activities, transformations that most often have the effect the degradation of the environmental factors. Coastal areas are often described as areas of potential conflict between the stakeholders and mechanisms such as integrated the coastal zone management or, more specifically, marine spatial planning are designed to achieve the sustainable management in this area. However, the application of these mechanisms is difficult, often due to the erroneous identification of presumption factors. This paper aims to identify the type of the economic pressure exerted on the natural factors. We took as an example the Eforie area, which is a combination of the natural protected areas with relevant anthropic economic activities. The Eforie area is located in the metropolitan area of Constanta, situated at the Black Sea coast, and during the summer the most significant pressure is represented by the tourists. However, the Eforie area is bordered by the environmental protection areas, of which probably the most important is the Protected Area Techirghiol Lake. © SGEM2018.",,461-468,,,18,,,,,,,,International Multidisciplinary Scientific Geoconference,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Issue: 5.3 Journal Abbreviation: Int.

This is more urgent for cetacean species in the Mediterranean because they assume a key ecological role in the marine food web and are severely affected by numerous and different anthropogenic pressures. This study aims to increase information on the genetic variability of striped dolphin in the Northern Ionian Sea by investigating the population structure, phylogenetic relationships and phylogeographic patterns using two mtDNA markers. From October 2020 to August 2021, a total of 88 skin tissue samples were collected from free-ranging dolphins in the Gulf of Taranto by applying the non-invasive technique of skin swabbing. An acceptable amount of DNA was extracted from 86 samples and used for subsequent genetic analysis conducted on the partial sequences of 421 and 704 bp in length of the cytb gene and D-loop control region, respectively. In addition, the sequences of the two mtDNA markers were joined together to compose a mtDNA concatenated sequence of 1125 bp for each sampled dolphin in order to investigate the genetic variability of the species population in the study area. Genetic analysis highlighted a low nucleotide diversity and high haplotypic diversity of the striped dolphin of the Gulf of Taranto, suggesting a population in rapid expansion after a period of reduction in size and diversity of the initial population. The phylogenetic analyses revealed the presence of at least two different lineages of Stenella coeruleoalba in the Mediterranean Sea, one specific to the Northern Ionian Sea and one shared with the Mediterranean population, confirming results already obtained for the local unit in the Gulf of Taranto. The results point out a potential problem of hybridization between striped and common dolphins which needs to be further investigated. Therefore, increasing the analysis of several markers may increase understanding of the genetic diversity of the population in the Ionian Sea and represent a useful tool to support the implementation of future effective conservation measures.

However, in order to be effective, priority areas for restoration should be chosen based on objective large-scale restoration planning. Here, a multicriteria graph theory framework was used to propose restoration priority areas for the Brazilian Caatinga, the largest seasonally dry tropical forest of the New World, based on landscape resilience, landscape connectivity and biodiversity conservation value, focusing on threatened endemic plant species. We applied this graph theory framework to 10,406 Caatinga catchment basins. Vegetation cover and within-catchment connectivity were used to select catchments of intermediate landscape resilience, which in principle offer more effective opportunities for restoration. Then, such catchments were independently classified into (a) three classes according their contribution for between-catchment connectivity and (b) three classes according their value for biodiversity conservation, estimated by the richness of threatened, endemic plant species. By the integration of landscape resilience, landscape connectivity and biodiversity conservation values, three priority classes for restoration were generated. The multicriteria framework generated several restoration priority cut-offs. Prioritization based on landscape resilience selected 36% of the Caatinga catchments as high priority for restoration. By independently adding landscape connectivity and biodiversity conservation value, only 12% and 3% of the catchments, respectively, were considered as high priority. By combining all three criteria, 9% of the catchments were selected as high priority and <1% as top priority for restoration. Synthesis and applications. Restoration of drylands can contribute immensely to the conservation of its threatened biodiversity but large-scale planning is quintessential. Here, a multicriteria graph theory framework was applied to indicate priority areas for restoration, which maximizes the effectiveness of restoration actions, landscape connectivity for climate change adaptation and conservation of threatened species. The framework was applied to the Caatinga, the largest seasonally dry tropical forest of the new world, but it can be applied world-wide under different budged limitations and spatial scales, being useful for private, state and federal initiatives. © 2022 British Ecological Society.",,2287-2298,,9,59,,J.

Thirty-three ethnographic interviews held in October 2010 found that 81.8% (N=27) of the fishermen interviewed were able to identify the species by its area of occurrence, coloration, and body size. The subsequent analysis of interviews was based on those 27 fishermen selected. There were no reports of positive interactions, and 52% (N=14) of those interviewed described negative interactions related to whales ""tearing and/or dragging the gillnets"". Accidents between whales and fishing vessels were described by 44% (N=12) of the fishermen. Accidental captures in gillnets were mentioned in 48% (N=13) of the interviews and fishermen believed that these events were caused by whales failing to see gillnets in the water (N=4) and by the position of these nets in the routes frequented by the mammals (N=9). In the fishermen's eyes this type of interaction has minimal impact on fishery. Therefore, is suggested the monitoring of areas frequented by whales and fishery, the use of gillnets away from these animals' migration routes, the search for alternative and lower-impact fishing activities, and the training of local actors for sustainable whale watching tourism in the region. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,428-437,,,38,,Mar.

Although authorities are very interested in valorization and protection of biodiversity (flora and fauna), the interest in geological heritage is still much lower. So, this paper tries to expose and give value to the very best sites of geologic interest (Geosites and Geodiversity sites) recognizable in the area. Forty-one sites are proposed as suitable to be considered as geological heritage. Twenty-nine of which are organized in three accessible georoutes (Oued Laou Valley and Ghomara Coast, Talambote-Akchour, and Chaouen-Ametrasse, respectively), and 12 others are located on trails and forest tracks inside or near the TNP. The 41 selected sites display a great variety of geological typologies as structural geology, stratigraphy-sedimentology, paleontology, geomaterials, petrology, geomorphology, and hydrogeology-hydraulic. In order to classify and rank (avoiding subjectivity) the sites and georoutes, a numerical methodology based on recent literature is applied. The scientific value (SV), potential educational value (PEV), and potential touristic value (PTV) are quantified (using several criteria in each case), making easy for possible users to select the most suitable route according to their goals. The degradation risk (DR) is also measured giving political and technical managers of the region important keys for an adequate geoconservation action plan. Finally, some actions following the criteria of the Global Geoparks Network by the UNESCO are proposed for the better conservation of the sites but also to contribute to education and promote tourism. These actions would also stimulate economic activity and sustainable development in the area by attracting increasing numbers of visitors. © 2019, The European Association for Conservation of the Geological Heritage.",,1005-1025,,3,11,,Geoheritage,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Verlag,,,,action plan; BASIN; BENI-BOUSERA; biodiversity; conservation status; economic activity; Evaluation; GARNET; Geological heritage; Geoparks Network by UNESCO; Geosites and Geodiversity sites; heritage tourism; Morocco; national park; NW Morocco; PERIDOTITE MASSIF; PROPOSAL; PYROXENITES; RIF; sustainable development; Talassemtane National Park and Ghomara Coast; tourist attraction; UNESCO,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The unique characteristics of reef fisheries, including strong habitat dependence, susceptibility to coastal impacts, diffuse landing sites and strong multispecies and multigear interactions suggest that standard approaches to fisheries management, especially those typically considered by the US Regional Fishery Management Councils, would not be applicable. Current management authority is split between local and federal agencies; however, there exists no uniform context and direction to current management initiatives, which results in lost efficiencies and opportunities. Proposed here is a new vision for fisheries management that takes into consideration the local ecological and socioeconomic characteristics of fishing, is compatible with regional resources and capacity, is ecosystem based and targets full stakeholder participation. Only an ecosystem-based approach can lead fisheries management out of the trap of unrealistic data collection and analysis demands, while at the same time refocusing emphasis away from attitudes and practices that promote overfishing. Management must be based on first principles regarding the desired state of the ecosystem and initiate strategies based on these principles. The key management goal is not to maximize fisheries catch, but to maintain the ecosystem in a state that will lead to sustained production. First principles would include maintaining ecosystem integrity and function, protecting all habitats and water quality, applying the precautionary approach, monitoring reference points and recognizing that production has limits. Resulting management tactics include marine reserves (to meet multiple goals), closed spawning aggregations, gear restrictions to maintain trophic balance and habitats, targeted data collection and assessments, adopting co-management practices and using ecosystem or community-based metrics. Fisheries management must fully incorporate the tools, resources and methods available within coastal zone management and other environmental agencies, while standards within those programmes must protect ecosystem health. Implementation will require attending to structural barriers inherent within existing fisheries legislation and regulations, multiple jurisdictions and the current cultures of scientists, managers and fisherfolk. Initial efforts should focus on developing a common language and frame of reference for all stakeholders. © 2008 Foundation for Environmental Conservation.",,232-241,,3,35,,Environ.

This paper looks at predictions made about new law by one of the authors, Peter Jones, in his paper The Marine Bill: Cornucopia or Pandora's Box [1] and assesses how successful the Act has been in turning aspirations into law. The paper focuses on the following areas: ecosystem protection, stakeholder engagement, marine spatial planning and the provision of a network of highly protected marine reserves, and raises concerns that the ecosystem approach has progressively been dropped in the drafting process of the legislation. Concerns are raised that the new Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authorities have similar inherent conflicts of interest to those exhibited by Sea Fisheries Committees, which they sought to replace. The effectiveness of marine planning is questioned, as there appear to be inbuilt loopholes for public authorities to avoid complying with the marine plans. The draft marine policy statement (MPS), published in July 2010, includes appropriate environmental safeguards, but the MPS has not yet been formally adopted. The absence of a concrete target for highly protected marine reserves means there is a danger that designations under the Act may have little effect on the ground. In conclusion the Act provides some new mechanisms for marine protection, but arguably does not yet provide a framework for implementing the ecosystem approach and is not an end in itself. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,73-77,,1,36,,Mar.

To conserve biodiversity and promote its long-term persistence, protected areas should account for the ecological implications of species’ redistribution. Data paucity across many systems means that achieving this goal requires generic metrics that act as proxies for likely responses of multiple taxa to climate change. Climate velocity is one such metric, representing the potential speed and direction of species’ range shifts. Here, we explore three approaches for incorporating climate velocity into the design of marine protected areas and demonstrate their application in the Mediterranean Sea. Our methods are designed to meet the climate-smart adaptation strategy of protecting climate refugia by selecting slow-moving climate velocity areas. For our case study, we found that incorporating climate velocity as a cost measure in Marxan best selects slower moving areas, which are robust indicators of climate refugia. However, this approach is unable to accommodate socio-economic cost data and is thus impractical. Incorporating climate velocity as a boundary or as a feature selects slower moving areas with a lower socio-economic cost. We recommend incorporating velocity as a boundary, where possible because it is a more flexible approach. The boundary approach considers the climate velocity of all planning units, rather than being limited to a subjective classification of ‘slow-moving’ planning units when treated as a feature. However, further assessment is required. For different planning scales and for grid structures other than squares, the relative performance of incorporating climate velocity as a boundary or as a feature might vary among case studies. This work presents simple and practical ways of including climate velocity in conservation plans to achieve the key climate-smart objective of protecting climate refugia, thereby enhancing ecological resilience. Our methods are widely applicable, encouraging researchers and practitioners to advance the field and deliver networks of climate-smart protected areas by 2030. © 2021 British Ecological Society",,1969-1983,,10,12,,Methods Ecol.

The magnitude of this challenge is reflected in recent international commitments to protect 30% of the planet by 2030 while adapting to climate change. However, because climate change is global, interventions must transcend political boundaries. Here, using the California Bight as a case study, we provide 21 biophysical guidelines for designing climate-smart transboundary marine protected area (MPA) networks and conduct analyses to inform their application. We found that future climates and marine heatwaves could decrease ecological connectivity by 50% and hinder the recovery of vulnerable species in MPAs. To buffer the impacts of climate change, MPA coverage should be expanded, focusing on protecting critical nodes for the network and climate refugia, where impacts might be less severe. For shared ecoregions, these actions require international coordination.

Despite their global importance, their persistence in the face of human pressure and climate change is uncertain. We present a 38-year quarterly time series of satellite imagery that maps the distribution and persistence of surface canopy-forming kelp (dominated by the bull kelp, Nereocystis leutkeana) forests along eleven degrees of latitude in the western Pacific of the USA. We estimate kelp persistence as the fraction of years occupied by kelp canopy in the time series and evaluate the representation of kelp in marine protected areas (MPAs). While 3.6 % of kelp habitat is fully protected and 10.1 % is partially protected, only 0.7 % of the highly persistent kelp which may be indicative of climate refugia are fully protected. Regionally, the amount of kelp fully protected inside MPAs decreases from Central Northern California (8.0 %) to Oregon (5.9 %), Northern California (1.7 %), and Washington (0 %). Five years after the 2014–2016 marine heatwaves, kelp forests did not recover in California (?90 % loss for both regions), while Oregon and Washington remained near pre-heatwave values. The low amount of protection in Northern California is concerning and likely exacerbates the vulnerability of kelp and associated species to marine heatwaves. Meeting a target of protecting 10 % of existing kelp habitat will require a 2.5-fold increase in kelp representation in MPAs. Moreover, we propose protecting highly persistent kelp is a cost-effective approach to increase representation and efficacy of MPAs to support climate resilience of kelp forest ecosystems. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,283,,Biol.

We illustrate our exercise in the Ensenadian eco-region, a shared marine ecosystem between the south of California, United States of America (USA), and the north of Baja California, Mexico; where conservation actions differ across the border. In the USA, California recently established a network of MPAs through the Marine Life Protection Act (MLPA), while in Mexico: Baja California lacks a network of MPAs or a marine spatial planning effort to establish it. We generated four different scenarios with Marxan by integrating different ecological, social, and management considerations (habitat representation, opportunity costs, habitat condition, and enforcement costs). To do so, we characterized and collected biophysical and socio-economic information for Baja California and developed novel approaches to quantify and incorporate some of these considerations. We were able to design feasible networks of MPAs in Baja California that are ecologically linked with California's network (met between 78.5 and 84.4% of the MLPA guidelines) and that would represent a low cost for fishers and aquaculture investors. We found that when multiple considerations are integrated more priority areas for conservation emerge. For our region, human distribution presents a strong gradient from north to south and resulted to be an important factor for the spatial arrangement of the priority areas. This work shows how, despite the constraints of a data-poor area, the available conservation principles, mapping, and planning tools can still be used to generate spatial conservation plans in a transboundary context. © 2017 Arafeh-Dalmau, Torres-Moye, Seingier, Montańo-Moctezuma and Micheli.",,,,MAY,4,,Front.

To further understand connectivity patterns, an assignment test was carried out which identified ten recent between-deme migrants with a mean dispersal distance of 116.6 km (± 80.5 SE). No long-distance dispersal was detected. These results highlight the ecological importance of the Bahía de La Paz region, including Archipiélago de Espíritu Santo MUMPA. This region, located at the center of the species peninsular range, exports larva to downstream sink demes such as the Loreto (northwardly) and Cabo Pulmo (southwardly) MUMPAs. Of importance, inter-MUMPA spacing was larger than the mean larval dispersal by ~56 km, suggesting thar the designation of intermediate ‘no-take’ zones would enhance short-distance connectivity.Conclusion: This study contributes as a baseline for policymakers and authorities to provide robust strategies for coral ecosystem protection and suggest that protection efforts must be increased towards peninsular intermediate reefs to promote metapopulation resilience from natural and anthropogenic factors. © 2021, Universidad de Costa Rica.

The EstuarIndex is an integration of four sub-indexes, assessing the status of the main subsystems present on estuaries: sandy environments, dunes, tidal flats, and the drainage network. Each sub-index includes variables combining three types of factors: morphosedimentary and oceanographic factors, ecological factors, and management and protection factors. The environmental status is finally evaluated in five possible classes: (1) Very low, (2) Low, (3) Medium, (4) High, and (5) Very High, according to EU requirements for classifying the conservation status of habitats. Three pilot zones along the Spanish coast have been chosen for testing the method: San Vicente de la Barquera estuary (N Spain), Guadiana estuary (SW Spain), and Ebro River delta mouth (E Spain). They present different oceanographic and geomorphological conditions. The results obtained have proven that EstuarIndex is a suitable methodology for the application to other estuaries. The systematic application of EstuarIndex on broad time scales would allow evaluating the system trends, what seems key for implementation of more realistic restoration strategies, and it has a great potential as a tool for environmental management in natural protected areas. Furthermore, it may help in the detection of the most relevant site-specific vulnerabilities for long-term sustainability in response to both natural and artificial drivers. © 2023, The Author(s).",,,,18,82,,Environ.

This estuary is impacted by inputs of contaminated water and sediments from the Ribeira de Iguape River (RIR), in Sao Paulo state. Inputs of metals are mostly from historical mining and metallurgy activities in the RIR watershed. This study aimed to evaluate the concentrations of Pb and Cd in the soft tissues of blue crabs (Callinectes danae) from the APA-CIP, and to determine if the levels of these metals in crab tissues are correlated with the concentrations of these metals in sediments from the estuary. Sediments and crabs were collected during the rainy (March) and dry (September) seasons. Pb concentrations in sediments at two stations in the estuary exceeded sediment quality guidelines, at concentrations of 13.08 and 40.24 µg.g-1 dry weight, respectively. Despite these high Pb concentrations in sediments, the levels of Pb in gill and hepatopancreas tissues of the crabs were relatively low. Cd concentrations in sediments from the estuary were relatively low, but the concentrations in crab tissues were elevated. For instance, the Cd concentrations in the hepatopancreas of crabs collected in the March survey at two stations were 21.73 and 4.24 µg.g-1, respectively. These findings indicate that C. danae may rapidly depurate Pb, while these crabs may rapidly accumulate and poorly depurate Cd. There was some indication that the concentrations of Cd in the hepatopancreas of C. danae were correlated with sediment concentrations, but factors such as varying sand and mud contents of the sediments, and the potential for migration of the crabs within the estuary may constitute confounding factors.

Proximity of motorized vessels and interactions in deeper waters were found to significantly shorten interactions. Short-term behavioural changes were observed in response to human events (e.g. touching). Interactions when whale sharks were feeding were significantly longer than when they were not. Individual behavioural variability was observed. 4. Impacts could be mitigated with small managerial changes and increased enforcement, such as limiting the number of motorized vessels and the number of people around the whale sharks.

Hence, mapping its geomorphology is an important step to inferring analyzes on benthic habitats. We observe several difficulties during this mapping of coastal areas by remote sensing and a lack of fine-scale depth data for reef areas in Brazil. The present study aims to present the bathymetry extracted by satellite imagery in murky waters using a mosaic of Sentinel-2 images in Google Earth Engine (GEE) calibrated with field samples. We used the satellite extracted DBM to map the bottom geomorphology through BTM (Benthic Terrain Modeler). We then present the first detailed geomorphological map for the largest marine coastal protected area in Brazil- MPA Costa dos Corais. The geomorphological raster was differentiated into seven classes: Flat Plains, Depressions, Gentle Slopes, Slopes, Terrestrial Reef Flat, Reef Flat, and Crest. Altogether, we estimate >275 km2 of area representing reef structures (coral reef or beachrocks), or about 48% of the total MPA area. Mapping coral reefs can contribute to conservation, particularly in selecting areas for in situ monitoring activities and in prioritizing the application of remedial actions in the event of environmental disasters or threats to coral health, such as oil spills and bleaching episodes. Our findings encourage the applicability of these methodologies in other reef areas and collaborate for the management and monitoring of marine protected areas.

Today excluding people from national parks is politically infeasible and ethically unjustifiable, moreover, recognition of humans rights living in or adjacent to protected areas have also been increasing. Therefore, approaches have changed from a preservationist to cooperative and participatory; especially in developing countries, where the human being and their activities should be consistent with conservation objectives, without ignoring the needs of those who live within or adjacent to these territories. In this paper we present our experience developing the management plan of the Bernardo O'Higgins National Park (BONP), the largest in our country. Within the research work, the basal line of natural resources of this national park, the different uses zones and the economic potential associated with touristic activities were defined. The local communities' goals, of those who have been historically involved with the protected area were incorporated, resulting in a management plan that includes in a more participatory way the local community. During the development of this project we achieve non-expected results that exceeded our original objectives: i) we confronted the established use of the regional's coastline areas forbidding aquiculture activities within the BONP limits. ii) Defined fiords and channels as part of the protected area which would enlarge the National Park and transform it into a marine protected area. iii) The participation of the Puerto Eden's Kawesqar community in all the BONP planning process, from the field data collection, through the use zones definition, and the discussion of the management plan of the protected area. © 2018 Universidad de Magallanes.; La gestión de áreas protegidas y la conservación de sus recursos naturales es una materia en permanente desarrollo y sobre la cual se han planteado diversos enfoques. Actualmente excluir a las comunidades humanas con derechos ancestrales de los parques nacionales es políticamente inviable y percibido como éticamente injustificable, sobre todo en países en desarrollo donde es cada vez más importante el reconocimiento de los derechos de sus habitantes. Es por ello, que los enfoques preservacionistas han ido cambiando hacia enfoques cooperativos y participativos, donde la expectativa es que el ser humano y su actuar sean consistentes con los objetivos de conservación de las áreas protegidas, sin dejar de lado las necesidades de quienes habitan dichos territorios. En este trabajo presentamos la experiencia de planificación del Parque Nacional Bernardo O'Higgins (PBNO), el más grande del país. En el marco de un proyecto de investigación que buscaba definir una línea base de los recursos naturales de este parque, identificar las áreas con distinta vocación de uso, y el potencial económico asociado a actividades de turismo al interior del parque, incorporaron los intereses del pueblo originario involucrado ancestralmente con los territorios protegidos, logrando expresar estos intereses en los resultados obtenidos. En el desarrollo de esta experiencia se generaron resultados no esperados que trascendieron los objetivos originales del proyecto: i) Se revisaron los antecedentes de la zonificación y uso del borde costero del territorio al interior del PNBO, de modo de influir en las definiciones respecto del desarrollo de actividades de acuicultura al interior del Parque. ii) La definición de los fiordos y canales interiores como parte de la superficie protegida en el Parque Nacional, lo que en la práctica supone incorporar una gran área marina protegida. iii) La participación de la comunidad Kawésqar con derechos ancestrales sobre el territorio en todo el proceso de planificación, desde la recolección de la información de terreno, pasando por la definición de las zonas de uso, y la discusión de las implicancias en el manejo de tan extensa área protegida. © 2018 Universidad de Magallanes.",,49-63,,1,46,,Magallania,Parque Nacional Bernardo O'Higgins/Territorio Kawésqar Waes: Conservación y gestión en un territorio ancestral,,,,,,,Spanish,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Universidad de Magallanes,,,,áreas protegidas; Conservación; Conservation; Kawesqar territory; Kawésqar territory; Management; Manejo; protected areas; Protected areas; Territorio Kawésqar,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The creation of marine protected areas, in addition to many benefits, also entails several costs, including the need for financing to maintain adequate surveillance and conservation. The recent economic crisis significantly lowered budgets for the maintenance of Spanish Marine Protected Areas, that may have had serious consequences for the marine resources sustainability. In this study we evaluated the indirect impact of the 2008 economic crisis on the conservation of fish stocks in Marine Protected Areas. We compared the number of species, abundance and biomass levels of the ichthyofauna, and abundance and biomass of selected species in two marine reserves (Cabo de San Antonio and Tabarca Island) with control areas, two years before (2008 and 2010) and two years after (2014 and 2015) the budget cut. Results in San Antonio revealed a decrease in total abundance, total biomass and number of species after the crisis, which translates into a decrease in the reserve effect. While in Tabarca no reduction has been observed in these variables, so the reserve effect was maintained after the crisis. We have found that of the 18 species analyzed, in San Antonio the abundance and biomass of 8 and 6 species respectively have decreased after the crisis, while in Tabarca the abundance and biomass of 6 and 8 species respectively have decreased after the crisis. Therefore, surveillance in marine reserves is necessary for the conservation of the species. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,147,,Mar.

Here we describe the identification of foraging hotspots off the Mediterranean Iberian coast using three Procellariiform species as examples, and assess the stability of these sites. Then, we show how these foraging hotspots contributed to the delimitation of marine Important Bird Areas (IBAs). The whole process consisted of: (1) seabird data collection (extensive boat-based surveys and seabird tracking, conducted in 1999-2010) and compilation of relevant spatial descriptors of the marine environment; (2) species distribution modeling (SDM) aimed at identifying areas with high habitat quality for the different seabird species (3); identification and delineation of the main seabird hotspots, based on models, supported by direct seabird data, and mediated by expert opinion; (4) application of BirdLife International IBA criteria for hotspot validation; and (5) combination of hotspots from different species to set the final limits of the marine IBAs. This approach allowed to identify a series of hotspots for pelagic species in the study area, and provided nice examples of stability assessment, which slightly differed in performance between seabird species. They contributed to the Spanish marine IBA inventory, which is in the process of receiving legal protection. Future work should be directed at confirming the stability of the marine IBAs in the long term, and to address the development of management plans to make effective the protection of these sites. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,30-42,,,156,,Biol.

The IUCN has defined it by as a Marine Protected Area (MPA)-Category II. As the 6th largest marine park in Indonesia, Karimunjawa provides a variety of coastal and marine habitats. Mangrove forest is one of the critical ecosystems in MPA Karimunjawa. This area offers a range of services both ecologically and economically. The high level of overexploitation activities, such as timber theft and tourism could damage the preservation of mangrove forests in Karimunjawa as a marine conservation area now and in the future. Thus, proven mangrove forest management is required to ensure its sustainability, and it depends on how people value conservation from economic and environmental considerations. The objectives of this research are to estimate the conservation value of mangrove forest in Kemujan Island – Karimunjawa and to estimate the community participation towards the conservation of mangrove forest in Kemujan Island – Karimunjawa. Based on the mangrove inventory on Kemujan Island by BTNKJ, there are 25 mangrove species in the category of seeds, stakes, and trees. The willingness to pay of the community in the context of MPA Karimunjawa conservation is regulated by developing a hypothetical market consisting of four actions: inventory, monitoring, core zone tracking technical plan, and restoration. The total economic value of willingness to pay in preserving Karimunjawa National Park is Rp 440,813,000.00, with a population of 9,379 visitors in MPA Karimunjawa is calculated around Rp 47,000.00 WTP average value. © 2019, BIOFLUX SRL.

The twelve coastal European nations of the OSPAR Commission have agreed to establish within the waters of the Northeast Atlantic an ""ecologically coherent"" network of marine protected areas by 2010. An initial set of 81 MPAs in the Northeast Atlantic was accepted by the OSPAR Commission in June 2006, and as of 31 December 2006 six additional sites have been put forward. They amount to approximately 26,500 km2, submitted by six of the twelve coastal nations. The job of assessing their ecological coherence has proven to be a difficult issue, and one that has not been attempted before. Assessment techniques that can cope with data-poor situations will prove most helpful, and with this in mind, three general approaches that can be used in data-poor situations and four specific examples of assessment techniques, are presented in this paper.

The marine flora and fauna are some of the richest in the world, relative to its size, particularly in the coastal habitats, which are also characterized by numerous endemic species although the introduction of non-indigenous species threatens its rich and unique biodiversity. Following the opening of the Suez Canal, and in combination with shipping and aquaculture activities, non-indigenous species (NIS) introduction has had measurable impacts on the Mediterranean. Lagoon ecosystems along the French coastline, with approx. 100 NIS identified, are considered hot-spot areas for these species. Rapid assessment sampling for sessile benthic species together with DNA barcoding is a rapid, easy and cheap method to detect non-indigenous species. Two nearby and different ecosystems were sampled for invertebrate species: Saint-Nazaire lagoon, a Special Protection Area within the Natura 2000 Network and Canet port, a marina in a small village. The DNA barcoding tool for species identification was used for confirming the taxonomy. This showed that, despite the Saint-Nazaire Lagoon classification within the Natura 2000 network, it is already contaminated with a single NIS that was found in high densities and is clearly beginning to dominate the system. It is proposed that a rapid assessment of the sampled environment and the DNA barcode approach are efficient and can provide sufficient information on the new target species to be used in conservation planning and ongoing management efforts. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,81-87,,,188,,Estuar.

However, very few MPAs are effective and meet their conservation objectives mainly due to a lack of coordination, participation or resources. For instance, in the Mediterranean Sea there are about 1062 MPAs, but 72% of them do not have effective regulations to reduce human impacts on biodiversity and current efforts are insufficient in managing human uses for the conservation and protection of marine biodiversity. This makes necessary to seek new ways or instruments for their management. In this sense, digitalization and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) can provide tools to facilitate the development of MPAs management in a more effective, participatory and efficient manner because automatic agents report their information and digest the data no matter the situation. In the specific case of Spain, one of the main problems identified for MPAs management is the overlapping of different kinds of protected areas in the same territory. In addition, these are managed by different administrations (Regional, National). An example of this situation is the Sierra Helada Marine Natural Park (SHMP) in Alicante. Within its territorial scope there are 3 MPAs with different protection figures that overlap each other, SHMP, the Natura 2000 site of Serra Gelada i la Marina Baixa and a fishing protected area. These MPAs are managed by different regional governmental bodies, and have a natural resources action plan in use, supported by a management collaboration agreement with the town councils in the area and the Altea Nautical Club. In the SHMP, Posidonia oceanica (PO) is one of the most important ecosystems and its presence prompted its creation and declaration. PO is a marine angiosperm endemic to the Mediterranean Sea that forms extensive meadows from the sea surface to 30–40 m depth and which provides essential goods and services: it improves water quality and protect beaches against erosion. PO meadows are recognized as biodiversity hotspots, and as major carbon sinks, but they are very sensitive to human activities. However, although many regulations protect PO, there are still significant threats to their conservation. In this regard, the research presented in this paper is the development of an ICT-based software tool, called Smart MPA, that includes an analysis framework based on management and governance indicators specific for PO and a database on PO that includes and combines different sources of information, including the results obtained of the evaluation of the analytical framework, input from information from citizens or MPA users, for example, by sending photos to report infractions in PO at specific points and from satellite images or underwater UAVs. The main objective of the Smart MPA tool is to offer services applied to PO management, either through the analysis of governance indicators or by facilitating the integration of citizen information to be used in management activities. The tool has been tested and used by the management staff of SHMP to be applied to an annual monitoring of management measures to develop an adaptive management of PO and the SHMP. After that, a semi-structured interview was carried out to collect information on the analytical framework co-developed and a survey was created where management staff of SHMP have given their perception on the usability of the tool and on the environmental problems affecting the conservation of PO in SHMP. According to the results obtained, the management of PO in SHMP is efficient, at a general level, with the lack of adequate funding being a limiting factor. The main threats are boat anchoring and organic pollution. In conclusion, the Smart MPA tool and the analytical framework are instruments that can facilitate the management and promote good environmental governance processes for the conservation of PO meadows in SHMP. At the same time, the importance of exploring mobile apps to increase citizen participation and mitigate threats and impacts on PO have been highlighted. © 2023 The Author(s)",,,,,60,,Reg. Stud. Mar.

A total of 54 bands were obtained, of which 50 (92.6%) were polymorphic. The total genetic diversity found within the four populations was 0.451 when estimated by Shannon's index. An AMOVA analysis showed that 84% of the total genetic variation was found within populations and 16% was among populations. The UPGMA dendrogram showed that all individuals from one of the populations (Huaxtla) formed one distinct genetic group, while the rest of the individuals did not cluster according to population. A Mantel test did not show an association between genetic and geographical distances among populations (r=0.893, p=0.20). A Bayesian cluster analysis performed with STRUCTURE, showed that the most probable number of genetic groups in the data was four {K=4), and confirmed the distinctness of Huaxtla population.

The survey was conducted in July 2019 using Line Intercept Transect (LIT), video transect, and satellite imagery analysis, then compared to data from the previous assessment. Results of recent survey, i.e.: living coral reefs coverage ranged from 46.73% - 73.08%; 21 genera found with 10 dominant genera, which Porites sp., is a resistant coral genus and the most dominant genus in Kapoposang MPA; the highest coral recruitment was found in Suranti island at a depth of 10 meters, while the lowest is in Papandangan island; several genera in the form of recruitment (e.g. Acropora sp., Goniopora sp., Fungia sp., Favona sp., and Porites sp.); percentage of macroalgae is 2.95% of total coral reef substrate cover; the most densely macroalgae coverage is found in Suranti, while the lowest is in Kapoposang island. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,486,,,,,,,,Institute of Physics Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

The objective of the research is to know the implementation of protection and security activities of Karimunjawa National Park Authority for the period of 2012-2016. The research was conducted by qualitative method, processing secondary data from Karimunjawa National Park Authority and interview with key informants. The results showed that protection and security activities in The Karimunjawa National Park were held with three activities: Pre-emptive activities, preventive activities and repressive activities. Implementation of conservation policy through protection of life support system is influenced by factors of policy characteristic, resource factor and environmental policy factor. Implementation of conservation policy need support from various parties, not only Karimunjawa National Park Authority as the manager of the area, but also need participation of Jepara Regency, Central Java Provinces, communities, NGOs, researchers, developers and tourism actors to maintain and preserve existing biodiversity.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) serve as a widely used conservation tool, and research on MPAs has recently expanded from a traditional focus on ecological outcomes to the inclusion of ecosystem services. However, the extent to which quantitative assessment of ecosystem services has informed MPA design and management remains unclear. In this review, we aim to understand the literature on societal benefits of coastal ecosystems within MPAs. We find that only a third of the papers quantify societal benefits and tend to focus on cultural and provisioning services while neglecting regulating services and health metrics. Furthermore, a subset of habitats (e.g., corals, mangroves) have received the greatest attention. Studies rarely evaluate ecosystem services to inform specific management strategies or options for MPA siting, monitoring, and financing. Our results suggest that comprehensively quantifying social-ecological relationships could help to advance MPA science and practice, fostering coastal resilience. © 2024 The Authors",,989-1006,,6,7,,One Earth,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Cell Press,,,,coastal ecosystems; coastal zone management; conservation management; ecosystem service; ecosystem services; marine environment; marine protected areas; protected area; service provision; societal benefits,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In spite of these management advances, fishers particularly in the municipal fisheries sector continue to observe declines in either the quantity or quality of their catch, and attribute this not only to the continued use of highly efficient and ecologically destructive fishing gears, but also, the unregulated numbers of fishers and gears within municipal waters. Recognizing this as a pivotal challenge, the USAID-funded Ecosystems Improved for Sustainable Fisheries (ECOFISH) Project developed a process for the right-sizing of fishing effort as a potential application of the ecosystems approach to fisheries management (EAFM) to directly address the issue of unregulated fishing effort in Philippine municipal fisheries. The objective is to determine via a participatory process a configuration of fishing effort that can be sustainably supported by the ecosystem, and at the same time, can provide adequate fish catches to support the livelihood needs of fishers in a defined marine key biodiversity area (MKBA). The ecosystem and livelihood tradeoffs are investigated using the Ecopath with Ecosim (EwE) modeling and simulation tool. The entire process adopts a multi-stakeholder set-up that featured highly participatory learning activities, consensus-building negotiations between local government units (LGUs), and science-based decision-making workshops. All in all, it consists of strategically tailored yet adaptive sessions to effectively engage stakeholders in understanding the concept of fishing effort right-sizing, to acquaint participants with the basic biological and ecological principles governing the fisheries, and subsequently, to raise the participants’ confidence in the decision-making and negotiation processes. The consensus-based MKBA-wide fishing effort targets considered both the system-scale and the diverse localized management priority objectives of the different user representatives. Across the 8 ECOFISH MKBAs, improving equity in the access of fisheries resource benefits emerged as a principal priority objective. Improving the ecosystem structure as evidenced by large, predatory fishes and minimizing fisher displacement outweighed maximizing catch and incomes as overriding priorities in the decision-making. The project envisions that the consensus-based fishing effort allocation will ultimately serve as basis for the regulated issuance of fisheries licenses by the respective LGUs and for the right-sizing process to serve as a model for determining fishing effort allocation options in other municipal fisheries systems in the country. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,167-184,,,165,,Ocean Coast.

To preserve and restore biodiversity, and sustain service supply, an international goal was set to protect at least 10 % of the global coastal and marine area by 2020. The goal has been achieved mainly through the designation of marine protected areas (MPAs). Whilst activities within the MPAs can be restricted to manage local pressures, the protected habitats and species are still exposed to stressors that originate outside MPA borders (e.g., non-native species, eutrophication). This study investigates the change in the protected stony reef habitat composition using underwater video observation in the coastal area of the eastern Baltic Sea known to be under the pressure of a non-native fish species. Further, assesses what the observed changes have meant for ecosystem functioning and ES supply adopting a tailor-made, expert judgement-based ES supply assessment method developed during the BONUS BASMATI project. The results suggest that the quality of the protected habitats in the case study sites has deteriorated and the transformation in species composition has altered ecosystem functioning and ES supply. The study highlights the importance of rich and diverse habitats for human wellbeing and livelihoods. Further, emphasises the need for more stringent MPA management plans, as well as a wider ecosystem-based approach to decision making in order to limit the impacts of stressors on marine ecosystems and secure ES supply. © 2021 The Author(s)",,,,,298,,J.

The overall goal of the initial stage of the project was to use existing data and expertise to define areas of conservation importance in KwaZulu-Natal. The aim of this paper is to illustrate the procedures used to incorporate insect species and subspecies into the project, including those for identifying insects of conservation concern and for making a first assessment of their distribution and conservation status. A biodiversity hierarchy (from landscapes through ecosystems and communities to species and populations) forms the basis of the analysis. Information received from taxonomists working in South Africa in response to a questionnaire survey was used to choose the species for inclusion in the initial analysis. A total of thirty-seven species and subspecies endemic to the Province in certain families of Coleoptera, Diptera, Lepidoptera, Mecoptera and Odonata were included. Existing distribution data were collated and the potential distributions of the endemics were modelled at a scale of 4 ha. Factors that potentially influence the distributions of the endemics were gleaned from the literature. Database queries using distribution data with a spatial resolution of ?250 m and cartographic overlays formed the basis of the modelling procedure. Two areas with little or no statutory protection, the high-lying grasslands of the northwestern region and much of the central region of the Province, are predicted to have a relatively high diversity of endemic insects. Fifty-one percent of the insect species and subspecies in the analysis met the two conservation goals, i.e. 1) at least 10 % of their present distributions under formal conservation management, and 2) three such protected areas with viable populations. A benefit of modelling the potential distributions of endemics is that searching for populations of these insects can be directed to areas where they are expected to occur.

Positive impacts of PAs on habitats, species diversity and abundance are well documented. Yet, biodiversity loss continues unabated despite efforts to protect 17% of land and 10% of the oceans by 2020. This casts doubt on whether extending PAs to 30%, the agreed target in the Kunming-Montreal GBF, will indeed achieve meaningful biodiversity benefits. Critically, the focus on area coverage obscures the importance of PA effectiveness and overlooks concerns about the impact of PAs on other sustainability objectives. We propose a simple means of assessing and visualising the complex relationships between PA area coverage and effectiveness and their effects on biodiversity conservation, nature-based climate mitigation and food production. Our analysis illustrates how achieving a 30% PA global target could be beneficial for biodiversity and climate. It also highlights important caveats: (i) achieving lofty area coverage objectives alone will be of little benefit without concomitant improvements in effectiveness, (ii) trade-offs with food production particularly for high levels of coverage and effectiveness are likely and (iii) important differences in terrestrial and marine systems need to be recognized when setting and implementing PA targets. The CBD's call for a significant increase in PA will need to be accompanied by clear PA effectiveness goals to reduce and revert dangerous anthropogenic impacts on socio-ecological systems and biodiversity. © 2023 The Authors.

However, MPAs often lack preexisting long-term biological baselines, which are essential for assessing MPA effects and for refining the conservation and socioeconomic benefits they confer to society. Our study addresses this issue by establishing demographic baselines for two commercially important species prior to a proposed fishing ban inside the Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument, a recently established MPA on the continental shelf break approximately 200 km southeast of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Methods: Samples were obtained by the Commercial Fisheries Research Foundation's American Lobster and Jonah Crab Research Fleet, which is an industry-based, fishery-dependent data collection program. Specially trained participants recorded year-round biological data from their 2013 to 2021 commercial catches of American lobster Homarus americanus and Jonah crab Cancer borealis. Samples were taken from an area inside the MPA and from two areas outside the MPA, spanning 130 km to the east and west. Result: American lobster sizes and sex ratios varied between areas, and their sizes, sex ratios, and proportion of ovigerous females differed between submarine canyons within areas. American lobster sizes, sex ratio, proportion of ovigerous females, and prevalence of shell disease were also affected by season and/or depth. Jonah crab parameters did not vary between areas, but sex ratio varied with season and depth, and the proportion of ovigerous females varied with depth. Conclusion: These demographic baselines are the only data available, at a sufficient spatial and temporal resolution, for evaluating the effects of a proposed fishing ban in the MPA, and they fill important data gaps for stock assessments. To evaluate possible future population changes, it will be necessary to continue collecting data from inside and outside the MPA using comparable methods, and to account for the preexisting sources of variation that we have identified. © 2023 Commercial Fisheries Research Foundation.

Location: New Zealand (NZ) marine coastline. Taxon: Twenty-one species of benthic invertebrate. Materials and Methods: A novel approach was used that involved: (1) use of genetic divergences (FST) from previously published studies to quantitatively describe patterns of population structure within each species as a fitted spline curve, (2) quantitatively clustering species by their similarity in geographic pattern using a dendrogram of curve similarities, and (3) then testing whether nine known life-history and ecological traits are associated with the species sharing similar genetic patterns, using distance-based regression. Results: Comparisons among species revealed not one, but four major common geographic patterns, within unexpected groups of species. The common locations of genetic divergence are similar to those previously identified, but differ substantially in their relative importance, compared to prior expectations. Two variables, Spawning Time and Taxon, explained significant proportions (26% and 16%) of the variation in the multivariate data. Main Conclusions: The genogeographic clustering of population genetic divergences provided considerable insight into the concordance of marine spatial structure across species, and some potential biological drivers of those patterns. The four common patterns of population structure identified revealed that different species responded to the same environmental drivers in very different and unexpected ways. Although larval dispersal is an important factor uniting groups of species, the timing of dispersal may be more important than pelagic larval duration in NZ. These results should contribute greatly to the integration of population genetics into both community ecology and conservation management. © 2024 The Author(s).

Specific challenges are the protection of these valuable resources in international waters, where no universally accepted legal framework exists to protect and regulate the exploitation of MGRs, and the unresolved issues on patenting components of marine life.

Conservationists recognize that more action, particularly the setting of national targets, is needed to ensure the future persistence and recovery of species and habitats. Protecting habitats that harbor evolutionarily diverse species preserves divergent genetic information within ecosystems. Türkiye holds 36 amphibian species at the intersection of two continents, creating three biodiversity hotspots and phylogenetic transitional areas. In this study, we aimed to determine the hotspot regions and to evaluate the effectiveness of the protected areas in Türkiye in preserving amphibian populations. First, we estimated four community indexes (species richness and three evolutionary distinctiveness measures) for amphibian communities in Türkiye divided into 371 grid cells with a ca 50 × 50 km size. Then, the spatial extent of protected areas is evaluated from two perspectives: current (has a protection status) and candidate protected areas (Key Biodiversity Areas, not protected) coverage in those grid cells. Finally, these two approaches' effectiveness in protecting areas was assessed by modeling four diversity metrics using GLS models. Current protected areas protect about 6% of the total amphibian distribution in Türkiye, while Key Biodiversity Areas would cover 30% if declared protected areas. We estimated that the coastal areas of Türkiye are identified as hotspots based on the four measured amphibian community indexes. Our study also highlights that Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) can contribute to conserving high levels of amphibian richness and evolutionary distinctiveness of species across Türkiye. However, existing protected areas (PAs) networks were insufficient to protect amphibians. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,368,,J. Environ.

The east coast of Scotland bottlenose dolphin population expanded its distributional range during the 1990s beyond the boundaries of the Moray Firth Special Area of Conservation (SAC), originally proposed to contain their core area of distribution. Two decades on, this study assesses the importance for this population of St Andrews Bay and the Tay estuary, 300 km south of the SAC. Photoidentification data from 2009 to 2015 were analysed using mark–recapture models to investigate the proportion of the population that uses St Andrews Bay and the Tay estuary. Habitat models were fitted to bottlenose dolphin presence–absence data to identify areas of high use. The estimated number of dolphins using St Andrews Bay and the Tay estuary during the summer increased from 91 (95% confidence interval 78–106) in 2009 to 114 (95% confidence interval 95–137) in 2015, representing, on average, 52.5% of the total estimated east-coast population for that period. Spatial mixing of individuals during the summer between St Andrews Bay and the Tay estuary and the Moray Firth SAC was estimated to be a minimum of ~6% per year and ~30% over the study period. The entrance to the Firth of Tay and waters around Montrose were identified as areas of consistent high use. The importance of St Andrews Bay and the Tay estuary reconfirms that effective monitoring of the population requires dedicated effort in both this area and the SAC. The results lead to consideration of the wider context of area-based management for the conservation/management of highly mobile wide-ranging species and human activities that might impact them. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,178-196,,S1,29,,Aquatic Conserv.

Despite its national importance, there exists lacunae in knowledge on butterflies, important from the viewpoints of effective planning and implementation of conservation actions in the CTR. Using standardized methods, the present study conducted between 2013 to 2014 was aimed to record butterfly species composition and distribution in different sampling regimes of the CTR in relation to habitat types and disturbances. Study revealed a total of 2621 individual butterflies of 56 species under 5 families. Among them, 24 species belong to the Nymphalidae family, 14 species to the Pieridae, 9 species to the Lycaenidae, 5 species to the Papilionidae and 4 species to the Hesperiidae. 50% of the total species were recorded as ubiquitous and 30 species are new records to the CTR. Species such as Catopsilia pomona (Fabricius), Papilio polytes (Cramer), Eurema hecabe (Linnaeus), Catopsilia pyranthe (Linnaeus) were most abundant and Athyma zeroca (Moore), Sarangesa purendra (Moore), Cyrestis thyodamas (Boisduval), Polyura agraria (Swinhoe) were least abundant species. Variations in the calculated diversity indices across the seasons were observed; wherein, summer season exhibited maximum value for Shannon-Diversity index, followed by late monsoon and early winter. Lowest diversity of butterflies was observed during the periods of late winter. Presence of seven species under the Indian Wildlife Protection Act and five species as rare, substantiate the importance of pristine conditions prevailing in the protected landscape of the reserve.

As well as effects on livelihood of herders, such changes may have significant impacts on plant species richness and composition. The objectives of this study were to explore how plant species richness and composition respond to livestock grazing in the high Himalayan rangelands. The study was conducted in three mountainous Protected Areas of Nepal viz. Sagarmatha (Mt Everest) National Park, Gaurishankar Conservation Area and Khaptad National Park. Species and environmental data were collected along perpendicular transects outwards from goths (semi-permanent stopping and camping points). It was found that the distance from goths generally represents a grazing disturbance gradient. The core areas near goths had low species richness per plot (?-diversity) where nitrophilous and grazing-tolerant species were commonly found. However, the highest species richness, total numbers of species and occurrences of rare species at mid- and farther distances from goths within 800m suggest that negative effects of summer livestock grazing were small and confined to limited areas near goths. Altitude, soil moisture content, percentage shrub cover and distance from goths were the variables significantly correlated with species composition, although the relative importance of these factors varied across study sites. This research can be used to inform decision-making about seasonal livestock grazing in the Himalayan rangelands, which should incorporate both ecological as well as socioeconomic considerations. © Australian Rangeland Society 2015.",,309-321,,3,37,,Rangeland J.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: CSIRO,,,,grazing gradient; Nepal; species composition; species richness; summer grazing.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Both seagrass and mangrove extents increased significantly since 2016. While sea surface temperature showed no significant annual variation, sea surface partial pressure CO2, height above sea level and pH presented significant changes. Among the environmental quality variables only silicate, PO4 and phytoplankton showed significant annual varying trends. The MMI food provisioning increased significantly, indicating overexploitation that needs urgent attention. MMI regulation and cultural ES did not show significant trends overtime.

Juvenile toothfish predominate in deep basins along the inner continental shelf, whereas adults are found mostly along the continental slope and spawning areas on the Pacific-Antarctic Ridge. The inner basins connect to the continental slope via glacial troughs and predictable transport along each trough results in exchange with the Antarctic Slope Current as it flows westward. From the slope, two transport pathways, an eastern one from Iselin Bank and a western one that turns cyclonically along the flank of the Southeast Indian Ridge, connect northward to the Pacific-Antarctic Ridge, where the northern arm of the Ross Gyre and the Antarctic Circumpolar Current flow eastward. Using a circulation model to compare transport pathways connecting toothfish life history areas, we consider which inshore basins are likely most important in contributing to adult spawning aggregations; how transport pathways from each may be expected to influence distributions along the continental slope and Pacific-Antarctic Ridge; and how zonal transport pathways may promote export to areas downstream of the marine reserve. Although the MPA protects some critical life history pathways for toothfish, others remain vulnerable to commercial fishing, and we argue that those in adjacent areas along the Iselin Bank, Pacific-Antarctic Ridge and the Amundsen Sea might usefully be protected, discussing the range of policy instruments available. We also recommend consideration of transport pathways in deliberations for a proposed network of Southern Ocean MPAs, introducing a system-based tool using chemical tracers in otoliths that can test for toothfish movement between areas connected along the Antarctic Slope Current and Antarctic Circumpolar Current. © 2021 The Authors",,,,,136,,Mar.

We compiled coordinates of 516 locations of elephants' encounters, 256 for dry season and 260 for wet season. Using nine predictor variables, we modeled the probability of elephant's distribution in MNP. We threshold the models to suitable and nonsuitable regions of habitat use using the equal training sensitivity and specificity values of 0.177 and 0.181 for the dry and wet seasons, respectively. Accuracy assessment of our models revealed a sensitivity score of 0.909 and 0.974, and a specificity of 0.579 and 0.753 for the dry and wet seasons, respectively. A TSS of 0.488 was also recorded for the dry season and 0.727 for the wet season indicating a good model agreement. Our model predicts habitat use to be confined to the southern portion of MNP due to elevation difference and a relatively steep slope that separates the northern regions of the park from the south. Regions of habitat use for the wet season were 856km(2) and reduced significantly to 547.68km(2) in the dry season. We observed significant overlap (327.24km(2)) in habitat use regions between the wet and dry seasons (Schoener's D=0.922 and Hellinger's-based I=0.991). DEM, proximity to waterholes, and saltlicks were identified as the key variables that contributed to the prediction. We recommend construction of temporal camps in regions of habitat use that are far from the headquarters area for effective management of elephants. Also, an increase in water point's density around the headquarters areas and selected dry areas of the park will further decrease elephant's range and hence a relatively less resource use in monitoring and patrols.",,3784-3795,,11,7,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000403273000015,,,,,,,African elephant; elephant distribution; FOREST; Geographic Information Systems; HETEROGENEITY; HOME-RANGE; MaxEnt; Mole National Park; MOVEMENT; PROTECTED AREA; RANGING PATTERNS; RESERVE; SELECTION; SPACE; Species Distribution Modeling; SPECIES DISTRIBUTION MODELS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This is to enable both spatial planning and where necessary mitigation in an increasingly crowded marine environment. One approach to mitigation is co-location of OWFs and marine protected areas (MPAs). This systematic review has the objective to inform this co-location proposal and identify areas requiring further research. A limited number of studies addressing marine renewable energy structures and related artificial structures in coastal waters were found. The results of these studies display a change in species assemblages at artificial structures in comparison to naturally occurring habitats. An increase in hard substrata associated species, especially benthic bivalves, crustaceans and reef associated fish and a decrease in algae abundance were the dominant trends. Assemblages associated with complex concrete structures revealed greater similarity to natural hard substrata compared to those around steel structures. To consider marine renewable energy sites, especially large scale OWFs as MPAs, the dissimilar nature of assemblages on the structures themselves to natural communities should be considered. However positive effects were recorded on the abundance of commercially important crustacean species. This suggests potential for incorporation of OWFs as no fishing, or restricted activity zones within a wider MPA to aid fisheries augmentation. The limited available evidence highlights a requirement for significant further research involving long term monitoring at a variety of sites to better inform management options. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,301-309,,,45,,Mar.

However, there has been no report to date of a protected area successfully using an acoustic grid to explore baseline levels of gun hunting activity, adapting its patrols in response to the evidence extracted from the acoustic data and then evaluating the effectiveness of the new patrol strategy. We report here such a case in Cameroon's Korup National Park, where anti-poaching patrol effort was markedly increased in the 2015-2016 Christmas/New Year holiday season to curb the annual peak in gunshots recorded by a 12-sensor acoustic grid in the same period during the previous 2 years. Despite a three-to five-fold increase in patrol days, distance and area covered, the desired outcome-lower gun hunting activity-was not achieved under the new patrol scheme. The findings emphasize the need for adaptive wildlife law enforcement and how passive acoustic monitoring can help attain this goal, and they warn about the risks of using effort-based metrics of anti-poaching strategies as a surrogate for desired outcomes. We propose ways of increasing protected areas' capacity to adopt acoustic grids as a law enforcement monitoring tool. © The Author(s), 2020.

The structure was composed of 6 diametric classes, concentrating 81% of the individuals, and 7 altimetric classes, grouping 62%, both in the first category. Three types of vegetation were determined: a) dry forest with Xylosma benthamii; b) transitional forest with Gustavia serrata, and c) Garua forest with Rhodostemonodaphne kunthiana as the ecologically representative species. The diversity measured from the richness species was higher (37 spp.) for the transitional forest, the average heterogeneity was higher (H' = 2.40 nats/ind) for the garua forest, and the average dominance was higher (D = 0.25) for the dry forest.

Since richness is not the best framework to conserve biodiversity, ecologists have been using patterns of complementarity to ensure that sites selected for inclusion in a reserve network complement those already selected. They also have investigated their association with the environment to conserve biodiversity in terrestrial realms successfully. In this study, we extended these ideas to marine realms. Specifically, we investigated if complementarity patterns vary with latitude, and what are the reasons for the observed patterns. Location: Global. Time period: Present day. Major taxa studied: Marine mammals. Methods: Global distribution maps for 123 marine mammals were obtained from the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Spatial Database to determine the global presence/absence of species. Random forest models were used to investigate the relationship between oceanographic variables and patterns of complementarity-based marine mammal site importance, calculated using the software Zonation. Results: Complementarity maps for all marine mammal species show a gradient of increasing importance from pelagic towards coastal areas, with patches of high priority in the Southern, North Pacific, and Arctic Oceans. Conversely, maps depicting hotspots of richness (HRs) of marine mammals show that HRs are highly biased towards tropical zones. Random forests identified temperature, bathymetry and salinity as the critical drivers of high conservation priority for marine mammals at a global extent. Main conclusions: Our results support the tenet that site complementarity can be modelled and predicted as a function of environmental variables. Because marine mammals face a higher level of threats compared to their land counterparts, our results can help stakeholders and citizens to advocate for actions in priority areas. Also, complementarity patterns could provide important insight into how patterns might change in the future, given the impacts of climate. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,2097-2106,,12,29,,Global Ecol.

Using marine conservation as an example, I elaborate and delineate various integrated methodological approaches for designing conservation areas such as marine protected areas (MPAs) that can be used by anthropologists and natural scientists alike. I also discuss how social scientists are favorably positioned to design conservation programs that are better tailored to the local context and summarize some ideas about how they can achieve the elusive goal of long-term project sustainability. Most marine biologists agree that sound scientific data are essential when designing MPAs (e.g., Bergen and Carr 2003). Marine biologists have also widely promoted MPAs as enhancing spawning stock biomass, allowing for larval dispersal and the export of adults to adjacent non-protected areas, maintaining species diversity, preserving habitat, and sustaining ecosystem function (Roberts et al. 2001; Russ and Alcala 1999). Social scientists, however, have been generally critical of marine and fishery scientists for paying too much attention to biodiversity and stock-recruitment models and neglecting the social dimension of human-marine relations when designing and implementing conservation and fishery policies, respectively (Acheson and Wilson 1996; Pollnac, Crawford, and Gorospe 2001). © Cambridge University Press 2010.",,349-376,,,,,,,,,,,Cambridge University Press,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Environmental Soc.

The objective is to assist the design of resource management and conservation programs that enhance the capacity of coastal communities in Oceania to confront both diminishing marine resources and the effects of climate change by providing guidelines for protecting marine biodiversity and vulnerable ecosystem functions. This article describes a management framework that hybridizes local beliefs and institutions expressed in customary management (CM) with such modern management concepts as marine protected areas (MPAs) and ecosystem-based management (EBM). Hybrid management accommodates the social, political, economic, and cultural contexts of Oceanic communities and, compared with recent or conventional management approaches, can therefore better address fundamental local concerns such as coastal degradation, climate change, sea level rise, weak governance, corruption, limited resources and staff to manage and monitor marine resources, and increasing poverty. Research on the hybridization of management systems demonstrates opportunities to establish context-appropriate EBM and/or other managerial arrangements that include terrestrial and adjacent coastal-marine ecosystems. Formal and informal CM systems are widespread in Oceania and in some parts of Southeast Asia, and if appropriate strategies are employed rapid progress toward hybrid CM-EBM could be enabled. © 2013 by University of Hawai'i Press.",,461-476,,3,67,,Pac.

Community-based aquaculture (CBA) has been implemented as an important alternative or supplementary income generating activity for minimizing the overdependence on marine natural resources and promoting biodiversity conservation. Despite its proliferation throughout the WIO region in recent decades, little is known about the degree to which CBA activities have contributed to achieving the objectives of breaking the cycle of poverty and environmental degradation and promoting community development and biodiversity conservation. In order to improve understanding of common challenges and to generate recommendations for best practice, we assessed the most common CBA activities practiced in the region through literature review and workshop discussion involving practitioners and key stakeholders. Findings indicated that despite favorable environmental conditions for various CBA practices, the sector remains underdeveloped, with few activities delivering the intended benefits for coastal livelihoods or conservation. Constraints included a shortage of seed and feed supplies, low investment, limited technical capacity and skills, insufficient political support, and lack of a clear strategy for aquaculture development. These are compounded by a lack of engagement of local stakeholders, with decision making often dominated by donors, development agencies, and private sector partners. Many of the region’s CBA projects are designed along unrealistically short time frames, driven by donors rather than entrepreneurs, and so are unable to achieve financial sustainability, which limits the opportunity for capacity building and longer-term development. There is little or no monitoring on ecological and socioeconomic impacts. Except for a few isolated cases, links between CBA and marine conservation outcomes have rarely been demonstrated. Realizing the potential of CBA in contributing toward food security in the WIO will necessitate concerted investment and capacity strengthening to overcome these systemic challenges in the sector. Lessons herein offer managers, scientists, and policy advisors guidance on addressing the challenges faced in building strategic development initiatives around aquaculture in developing countries. © 2018 by the author(s).",,,,4,23,,Ecol.

However, there is limited literature providing approaches to achieve successful rewilding. The current study aimed at providing empirical based methodological procedures for successful rewilding of the University of Dodoma (UDOM) and nearby degraded landscape by assessing past and current vegetation and large mammal species’ occurrence. Methodology: The past occurrence of mega-herbivores and their habitat was assessed using systematic literature survey, past vegetation maps and key informant interviews. EBSCOhost database and Google Scholar search engine were used for literature searching. A survey was conducted at UDOM area which is one of the remaining habitat patches in central Tanzania to examine present plant diversity. Results: The baseline vegetation map of 1960 indicated that the study area was mainly Savanna woodland. Literature suggested that anthropogenic activities resulted into Land-Use Land-Cover Changes (LULCC) leading into wild animals’ extirpation leaving remnant populations in the surrounding protected areas. While the key informant interviews verified local loss of mega-herbivores, field data collected at UDOM campus in 2022 indicated the vegetation transformation to bushland dominated by Dichrostachys cinerea. The area’s past vegetation composition was 33% grasses, 29% herbs, 21% shrubs and 17% trees while the current was 18% grasses, 42% herbs, 30% shrubs and 10% trees. Conclusion: The study revealed that central Tanzania hosted spectacular large mammal populations that interacted with the savanna which has recently been transformed to bushland. However, observed evidence on past existence of large mammals and recent elephants’ sightings at UDOM area indicate great potential for rewilding. Implication for conservation: Reconstructing historical information of ecosystems is crucial for successful rewilding. Such information can guide conservation efforts aiming at reversing extinction and reestablishing connectivity of large herbivore population across ecosystems. © The Author(s) 2023.",,,,,16,,Trop.

Shorebird populations are in decline globally and here we describe how changing shellfishery management and nutrient inputs have had dramatic influence on waterbird communities on an internationally important wetland. Cockle Cerastoderma edule and mussel Mytilus edulis fisheries conflict with shorebirds by removing prey and increasing mortality amongst non-target benthic invertebrates. Under intense dredging pressure, evidence suggests that benthic invertebrates such as worms, with rapid growth and short-generation times, should predominate over species such as bivalves, with slower growth and longer generation times.3. We investigated the change in the waterbird assemblage in the Wash, eastern England, between 1981-1982 and 2002-2003. This period was characterized by heavy fishing pressure on mussels and cockles, ultimately leading to a crash in the mussel stocks. During the study period, the waterbird assemblage underwent a gradual change from one dominated by those species with a high proportion of bivalves or 'other' prey (e.g. crustaceans, fish) in their diet to those with a higher proportion of worms. This gradual change was punctuated by major shifts, corresponding to three winters when oystercatcher Haemotopus ostralegus mortality was 5-13 times normal winter levels. Oystercatcher, knot Calidris canutus and shelduck Tadorna tadorna showed the highest levels of decline. Since the last major oystercatcher mortality event in 1996-1997, the assemblage has not shifted back to that observed prior to the major crash in the mussel stock in 1992. Changes in the waterbird assemblage were significantly related to mussel and cockle stock levels and, to a lesser extent, nutrient levels. Although correlative, evidence from this study indicates that fisheries caused shifts towards a waterbird community dominated by species with a high proportion of worms in their diet. Synthesis and applications. Mechanical shellfisheries directly conflict with the nature conservation interest of sites holding internationally important waterbird populations. Removal of the mussel beds in the Wash led to major shifts in the waterbird assemblage, with a shift towards worm-feeders. Setting annual quotas that provide sufficient food for shellfish-eating birds is essential to maintain the favourable status of this and other internationally important wetlands where shellfish are exploited. © 2010 The Authors.

Sensitive habitats, including coral reefs, estuaries and mangroves, have been effectively protected in large MPAs, which control resource use. Protection from pollution and physical destruction by fishing gear are important functions of MPAs in tropical and temperate regions. MPAs have been used to protect endangered species and to allow population recoveries. The advantages for fishery management include maintenance of spawner biomass, improvement of yield, simplified enforcement, research opportunity, insurance against stock collapse and maintenance of intraspecific genetic diversity. MPAs can be small with narrow, focused objectives, or large with core areas, buffer zones and exploitable areas to provide an integrated management approach. A variety of design considerations, based on ecological, fishery and socio-economic conditions, is presented. Optimal size and spacing have not been extensively tested and only theoretical arguments guide the choice of how much to protect. The process of establishing an MPA can be initiated by local communities or by governmental authorities. The former has better public support, whereas the latter promises a well planned system of MPAs. Community and industry involvement in the establishment process is essential for the effective functioning of MPAs. Successful MPAs are administered by national programmes and managed according to management plans. Monitoring, communication and enforcement are integral components of MPA management. South Africa is party to a number of international conventions which promote the designation of MPAs.

However, diving must be sustainable. One challenge to sustainability is changing reef conditions and diving clientele over time. This paper examines these changes with respect to diving on the Andaman coast of Thailand using a Wildlife Tourism Model. In 2012 a questionnaire was administered to 591 scuba divers and compared with 506 questionnaires collected in 2000. Findings include: the 2012 industry has a higher proportion of low and medium specialization visitors that have lower expectations and lower overall satisfaction, yet remain willing to return; the average per capita economic contribution of divers to the local economy and to dive companies declined by more than 30% by 2012; Andaman coast diving continued to grow in 2012, dominated by mass - market tourism that had diversified into several niches; the results verify the use of the Wildlife Tourism Model as a tool to understand industry sustainability, and suggest further development of the model to capture the extension into specific, niche markets. Changes to diver characteristics in 2012 restrict the ability of diving to fund conservation, provide alternative livelihoods, support environmental choices by operators, and control dive pressure exerted on reefs. Results suggest the operationalization of Limits of Acceptable Change by both managers and dive operators to grow the conservation value of diving. The results of this study suggest that the Wildlife Tourism Model can be used to inform management choices in emerging dive destinations. For instance, creating spatial zones that target the tourist composition most appropriate to meet the conservation goals of each reef system. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

We carried out the first extensive survey of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands during 2003-2006, covering 40 islands. Our objective was to map the bat species, their habitats and distribution. This resulted in identification of 25 bat species representing 13 genera, location of > 300 roosts and validation of previously recorded species. Notable findings included the rediscovery of the endemic Nicobar flying fox Pteropus faunulus after a century and its extinction from the type locality on Car Nicobar Island, the sighting of an albino Hipposideros diadema nicobarensis from Katchal Island, and the first records of Rhinolophus yunanensis, Murina cyclotis and Hipposideros larvatus from the Andaman Islands, and Taphozous melanopogon, Murina cyclotis, Pipistrellus spp., Myotis horsfieldii dryas and Cynopterus brachyotis from the Nicobar Islands. Threats to the bat fauna appear to be primarily roost disturbance and hunting for sport. Anthropogenic pressure on species of Pteropus is high as hunting occurs throughout the year. Secondary sources and our field observations confirmed the decline of Pteropus in several islands as a result of hunting and alteration to habitats. We introduced a community initiative to monitor and protect roosts and foraging sites close to settlements in the Nicobar Islands. Priorities identified for conservation of the bat fauna of the archipelagos are mitigation of threats to flying foxes and cave dwelling bats, initiation of research on endemic bat species such as P. faunulus, and a voluntary ban by local communities on hunting in specific areas and seasons.",,204-212,,2,48,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000337969700010,,,,,,,ABUNDANCE; Andaman and Nicobar Islands; bats; BUSHMEAT; community initiative; CONSERVATION; FOREST; HOTSPOTS; local extinction; new records; NORTH; PROTECTED AREA NETWORK; Pteropus faunulus,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Therefore, it is necessary to have a scientific analysis of the management and zoning plan especially in determining the location of the core zone (no-take zone). Determination of the core zone is the most important part in planning to protect coastal areas as a form of sustainable management of fish resources and the environment. The purpose of this study is to determine the location of no-take zones based on conservation targets that have high biodiversity values in the PISISI area of Simeulue Island. Therefore, the Marxan model is used which is a design plan for the conservation zoning design. The analysis shows that there are eight areas that can be used as a no-catch area based on coastal habitats, biodiversity, and high conservation value. The model results indicate that no-take zones will be able to protect 80% of conservation targets.

These ecosystem goods and services, however, are threatened by increased exploitation and environmental changes from a rapidly growing regional human population. To address these threats, we adopted an ecosystem-based perspective and developed a systems science analysis framework over the last decade to better assess and improve sustainable multispecies reef fisheries in the Florida Keys. Here we describe our progress and provide three example applications. We first built upon traditional catch and effort stock assessment methodologies by collecting spatially-explicit, fishery-independent data covering all reef fishes and reef habitats in the Keys. An optimized sampling strategy and a new length-based assessment framework provided synoptic spatial estimates of species abundance and size structures. Models were developed that encompassed the complex biological dynamics of fish stocks and a broad range of environmental and human impacts, including fisheries, non-target species, predator-prey interactions, species movements, ontogenetic changes in habitat associations, and physical processes. We show that the snapper-grouper fishery in the Florida Keys is experiencing overfishing and that stocks are overfished relative to established benchmarks for resource sustainability. Spatially explicit models demonstrated the potential effectiveness of no-take marine reserves to support sustainable fisheries, and were employed to objectively evaluate marine reserve boundary options in the Dry Tortugas. We show the importance of considering physical coupling and regional water quality changes resulting from Everglades restoration. A fishery systems science framework improves understanding of impacts from fishery extraction, ecosystem alterations, and natural oceanographic variability on the dynamics of exploited fish stocks. © 2005 Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science of the University of Miami.",,595-622,,,76,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 2 Journal Abbreviation: Bull.

A probabilistic sampling design produced precise estimates of population metrics of more than 250 exploited and non-target reef fishes. During the survey period more than 8100 research dives utilizing SCUBA Nitrox were optimally allocated using stratified random sampling. The survey domain covered 326km2, comprised of eight reef habitats in four management areas that offered different levels of resource protection: the Tortugas North Ecological Reserve (a NTMR), Dry Tortugas National Park (recreational angling only), Dry Tortugas National Park Research Natural Area (a NTMR), and southern Tortugas Bank (open to all types of fishing). Surveys detected significant changes in population occupancy, density, and abundance within management zones for a suite of exploited and non-target species. Increases in size, adult abundance, and occupancy rates were detected for many principal exploited species in protected areas, which harbored a disproportionately greater number of adult spawning fishes. In contrast, density and occupancy rates for aquaria and non-target reef fishes fluctuated above and below baseline levels in each management zone. Observed decreases in density of exploited species below baseline levels only occurred at the Tortugas Bank area open to all fishing. Our findings indicate that these NTMRs, in conjunction with traditional fishery management control strategies, are helping to build sustainable fisheries while protecting the fundamental ecological dynamics of the Florida Keys coral-reef ecosystem. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.",,28-37,,,144,,Fish.

The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB), a land-owning wildlife conservation charity in the UK, achieves this on its nature reserves through its system of management planning. This involves setting network-wide objectives which inform the 25-year vision and 5-year conservation objectives for each site. Progress toward achieving each site’s conservation objectives is reviewed annually, to identify any adjustments which might be needed to the site’s management. The conservation objectives and 25-year vision of each site are reviewed every 5 years. Significant long-term impacts of climate change most frequently identified at RSPB reserves are: loss of intertidal habitat through coastal squeeze, loss of low-lying islands due to higher sea levels and coastal erosion, loss of coastal freshwater and brackish wetlands due to increased coastal flooding, and changes in the hydrology of wetlands. The main types of adaptation measures in place on RSPB reserves to address climate change-related impacts are: re-creation of intertidal habitat, re-creation and restoration of freshwater wetlands away from vulnerable coastal areas, blocking artificial drainage on peatlands, and addressing pressures on freshwater supply for lowland wet grasslands in eastern and southeastern England.

MPAs have the potential to sustain living marine resources and their support systems at genetic, populationcommunity, ecosystem, and landscape levels. From a fisheries perspective they can protect spawning and nursery areas of key species, maintain age structure (retain older, proportionately more fecund individuals), protect key habitats, and reduce bycatch. MPAs are used sporadically in management of fisheries and are generally based on predicted responses for populations of exploited taxa. However, identification of representative, rare, and high diversity areas of temperate and boreal marine systems, especially on outer continental shelves, is still in its infancy. There is information available from both the scientific literature and from fishers on the life history and behavior of economically important species, on species assemblage patterns, and on physical structure of the marine environment. Such information could be used as a starting point for identifying areas of particular importance to populations or communities of fishes and for the conservation of diversity at the regional scale. Identification of such areas could serve as a basis to design an experimental network of MPAs. Such MPAs, designated for the purpose of maintaining or developing sustainable fisheries, must explicitly be designed within an experimental context, maintaining flexibility for changes in regulations as new information becomes available.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the impacts of potato (Solanum tuberosum) cultivation and livestock on the physicochemical parameters and enzymatic activities that determine the soil quality of the Neotropical high Andean Páramo ecosystem in the Nevados National Natural Park (Nevados NNP) in Colombia. It was hypothesised that sites with potato crops and livestock farming would exhibit significant changes in soil physicochemical parameters and enzymatic activities compared with Páramo sites that have been conserved without agriculture. Samples were collected from soils under potato cultivation, livestock and Páramo (subject to the lowest degree of human intervention possible), on three farms in the El Bosque District at three different altitudes (Buenos Aires, El Edén and La Secreta) during two seasons (dry and rainy). The results showed that none of the physical parameters under study presented statistically significant differences due to the type of use (livestock, potato crop or Páramo), season of sampling (dry or rainy season) or altitude (different farms). The chemical parameters that statistically significantly differed due to land use were organic carbon, cation exchange capacity, calcium, potassium, and ammonium and those that showed statistically significant differences associated with the sampling timing were organic carbon, nitrogen, cation exchange capacity, total carbon, C/N and nitrate. Additionally, there were differences in organic carbon due to the altitude of the farms. With respect to enzymatic activities, those of ?-glucosidase, phosphodiesterase and urease significantly decreased in soils under potato cultivation and livestock relative to those of Páramo, but those of acid phosphatase and protease increased significantly under potato cropping and livestock. The activities of ?-glucosidase, acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, phosphodiesterase and protease were higher during the dry season than the rainy season, and the activities of ?-glucosidase, acid phosphatase and urease decreased statistically in the lower-altitude farm (La Secreta). These decreases in enzymatic activities are attributable to changes in the organic carbon of the soil. This study provides a novel insight on the relationships between land use and the physicochemical parameters and enzymatic activities of Páramo soils (which have been minimally studied to date) at different altitudes and during different seasons. The results suggest that changes in agricultural practices should be implemented to maintain the organic carbon of soil and, therefore, its enzymatic activities. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.",,1600-1610,,,631-632,,Sci.

To assess possible changes associated with potato cultivation (Solanum tuberosum L.) and livestock on the microbial communities of Páramo soils, the objective of this research was to evaluate the possible effects of potato cultivation and livestock farming on the soil microorganisms associated with different functional groups (nitrogen fixers, phosphate solubilizers and cellulolytic) in the Páramo of Nevados National Natural Park (Nevados NNP), Colombia. Samples were collected from soils under potato cultivation, livestock, and Páramo conservation areas over two climatic seasons (rainy and dry) in three farms at different elevations (3769, 3590, and 3432 m a.s.l.). The microorganisms were isolated using selective culture media for each functional group and identified using molecular markers; microbial diversity was analyzed using multivariate statistical tools. Changes were dependent on land use, elevation, and climate and were statistically significant in the rainy season on all three farms and one of the farms during the dry season. Similarly, the results indicated that climate has a greater impact on the evaluated microbial communities than land use does; the changes were significantly different between the soil under potato cultivation and in conserved Páramo sites at most of the evaluated locations and between soil subjected to livestock farming and Páramo in certain locations. However, the differences between potato cultivation and livestock farming were smaller. This study showed for the first time that the microbial structure (abundance and composition) of microorganism functional groups was different as a result of potato cultivation and livestock farming on Páramo soils, although these changes were dependent on farm elevation and climate. © 2020, Revista Brasileira de Ciencia do Solo.

Data from biological and fisheries monitoring of A. purpuratus as well as environmental conditions in the MR are available for the period from 1993 to 2009. The continuous extraction of A. purpuratus from La Rinconada MR in Chile, without a science-based exploitation plan, has not only decreased the abundance and population structure of the species but has also significantly affected seed settlement in artificial collectors and population recruitment. Therefore, the goals of the MR have not been achieved. This review of biological and fishing studies of A. purpuratus in La Rinconada MR provides a basis for the implementation of a sustainable programme for the natural collection of A. purpuratus seed for population recovery. A. purpuratus recruitment varies substantially between years and is not strongly related to the size of the parental population. Larval collection and recruitment depend on environmental events (El Nińo-Southern Oscillation) and biological substrate availability (Rhodymenia red algae). These factors produce a bentho-pelagic decoupling between parental abundance, larval production and subsequent recruitment of A. purpuratus that limits stock recovery in the MR. To address the poor population status of A. purpuratus in the MR, recovery of the adult population is needed. Therefore, an assisted collection and recruitment strategy is proposed to increase the population and enable the generation of surplus seed, fulfilling the initial aims of La Rinconada MR. © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,215-225,,2,33,,Aquatic Conserv.

This ecosystem provides direct and indirect services for human well-being such as food, wood, climate regulation, natural hazard protection, recreation and aesthetic values. However, academic research indicates that more than 35% of world’s mangrove coverage has been lost in the past three decades. The primary drivers of change of cover lost are aquaculture activities and development of urban infrastructure. The objective of this work was to conduct an exploratory assessment of the impacts of urbanization on mangrove communities located in the city of La Paz, Mexico using the Driver-Pressure-State-Impact-Response framework (DPSIR). The assessment was complemented by a Delphi survey to incorporate information obtained from experts and stakeholders. The results indicated that the most important pressing factors on mangrove communities were: tourism, urban growth and waste. However, the data on mangrove cover and conservation status show that the overall situation of mangroves of mangroves in La Paz is “barely adequate,” with communities showing positive and adverse conditions. It is estimated that mangrove communities classified as “Vulnerable” and “Endangered” probably do not generate the same ecosystem services as mangroves classified under the “Near Threatened” and “Least Concern” categories. Protection actions as protected areas, environmental laws, and ecological restoration have helped in the conservation of mangroves in the study area. This work concludes that DPSIR framework is a handy tool to analyze in the first instance the conditions of the mangroves and may be replicable in other regions that have this ecosystem, even in places with little scientific research. © 2017 WIT Press.",,459-469,,,223,,WIT Trans.

To further assess these mysterious oil spills, we investigated whether the oils stranded on the beaches of Ceará in 2019 and 2022 had the same origin, whether their compositional differences were due to weathering processes, and whether the materials from both were natural or industrially processed. We collected oil samples in October 2019 and January 2022, soon after their appearance on the beaches. We applied a forensic environmental geochemistry approach using both one-dimensional and two-dimensional gas chromatography to assess chemical composition. The collected material had characteristics of crude oil and not refined oils. In addition, the 2022 oil samples collected over 130 km of the east coast of Ceará had a similar chemical profile and were thus considered to originate from the same source. However, these oils had distinct biomarker profiles compared to those of the 2019 oils, including resistant terpanes and triaromatic steranes, thus excluding the hypothesis that the oil that reached the coast of Ceará in January 2022 is related to the tragedy that occurred in 2019. From a geochemical perspective, the oil released in 2019 is more thermally mature than that released in 2022, with both having source rocks with distinct types of organic matter and depositional environments. As the coast of Ceará has vast ecological diversity and Marine Protected Areas, the possibility of occasional oil spills in the area causing severe environmental pollution should be investigated from multiple perspectives, including forensic environmental geochemistry. © 2022",,,,,314,,Environ.

However, integrating traditional ecological knowledge and remote sensing application to produce marine habitat map was still very limited. The aims of this study are to try to implement the integration of traditional ecological knowledge and multispectral image classification for shallow-water marine habitat mapping in the marine protected area (MPA) of Kaledupa Island, Wakatobi National Park (WNP). Imagery data used was Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (2016). Fishers from Kaledupa Island visually interpreted Landsat 8 OLI multispectral image to identify sangnga (live coral), sangnga mate (dead coral), rondo (lamun), and one (sand). Their interpretations were used as input to image supervised classification with Mahalanobis and Maximum Likelihood. Then, habitat mapping with four classes could be produced. Results indicate that marine habitat mapping can be generated well by combining traditional ecological knowledge and multi-spectral image classification, Mahalanobis with the overall accuracy 71.67% and kappa statistic 0.62%; Maximum Likelihood Analysis with the overall accuracy 73.33% and kappa statistic 0.65%.

Several essential aspects should be adequately understood to support mangrove ecotourism in KJNP, including the potential of tourism attractions, the ecological carrying capacity for tourism, the potential support from stakeholders, and the best strategies based on the latest conditions. This study aimed to (i) identify and analyze the potential of mangrove ecotourism attractions in KJNP, (ii) analyze the carrying capacity for mangrove ecotourism, (iii) analyze the level of influence and interest of stakeholders, and (iv) determine strategies for developing mangrove ecotourism in KJNP. The ecotourism attraction potentials were analyzed using a modified version of the assessment of Natural Tourism Attraction Objects (NTAO) (Objek Daya Tarik Wisata Alam-ODTWA). The carrying capacity was analyzed using the Area Carrying Capacity concept. The influence and interest level of stakeholders were analyzed using the economic characteristics of the community and the stakeholder grids. The strategy for developing mangrove ecotourism was determined using Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, Threat (SWOT), and Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix (QSPM) analyses. The results showed that mangrove ecotourism in KJNP is highly potential and feasible to be developed based on the assessment of 15 criteria of NTAO with a carrying capacity of ca. 104 visitors/day. About 96% of the community agrees to support the development of mangrove ecotourism in KJNP.

The results show that the predicted distribution is similar for both investigated periods. However, a small reduction of suitable areas in the Northern portion of the Gulf is observable for the second one, probably due to the expansion of fish farm activity in this zone. The MSFD and its consequent management actions didn't appear to improve the protection of striped dolphins in the investigated area. Their review will be essential to assess which further management actions will be necessary to program to protect and conserve striped dolphins in the Natura 2000 area 'Gulf of Corinth'.

However, the impact of MPAs may vary according to the type of fisheries. In Senegal, the sardinella fishery accounts for 70% of total catches. This fishery is of crucial importance for national food security and employment. Given this importance, it is necessary to evaluate the impact of MPAs, often being considered as a tool for fisheries management. An analytical, dynamic and spatial bio-economic model of sardinella fishery, considering fish and fisher migration, has been developed and scenarios over forty years have been analyzed. The results show that the fishery is economically overexploited and that Senegal could lose about 11.6 billion CFA over forty years of exploitation, i.e. 290 million CFA per year. To achieve an optimal level of exploitation, it would be necessary to halve the current fishing capacity. Implementing MPAs for 10, 20 and 30% of the Senegalese exclusive economic zone lead to slight increases in biomass (1%) and rent (5–11%). In addition, spatio-temporal closures can lead to increased exploitation in unclosed areas, due to the absence of enforcement. Achieving target 11 of the Aichi Convention, i.e., 10% of coastal and marine areas protected per country, will have a reserve effect on the resource but also only lead to weak improvements in economic indicators for the Senegalese fishery. Finally, because the sardinella resource is shared among many countries of the Sub-Regional Fisheries Commission (SRFC), a sub-regional cooperation is necessary for a sustainable management. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,239-246,,,169,,Ocean Coast.

The UAV is capable of autonomous navigation, persistent landing, take-off and automatic data acquisition at specified waypoints. The system architecture that enables autonomous UAV flight including waypoint planning and control is described. A bespoke lightweight underwater acoustic recorder (named the PorpDAQ) capable of transmitting the results of fast Fourier transforms (FFT) applied to incoming signals from a hydrophone was also designed. The system’s operation is successfully validated with a combination of outdoor experiments and indoor simulations demonstrating different UAVs capable of autonomously navigating and landing at specific waypoints while recording data in an indoor tank.

Debate about the specifics of single-species fisheries management takes place within this basic framework. However, the objectives, principles, goals, and scientific methodology of ecosystem-based management are in an early stage of development, and no standardized approach currently exists.

For EBFM, spatial zoning of the marine environment, including no-take marine reserves and areas where destructive fishing gears are prohibited, may become a prime management tool. Therefore, indicators of the effectiveness of spatial management will be required, along with an understanding of how indicators related to other objectives will be influenced. We review single-species models that have been used to model spatial zoning, including potential bias in assessment and current work on effort reallocation after area closure, as well as available ecosystem-based models and metrics and how they might account for spatial management. Metrics that can be derived from explicitly spatial approaches such as GIS-based ecosystem and fishery evaluations are also discussed. (c) 2005 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.

The foresight of the founders of the laboratory has enabled the pursuit of ecological studies that have been amongst the first to demonstrate the effectiveness of reserves as a tool for conservation and restoration. The insights flowing from this work at Leigh are important, not only for targeted marine species, but also at the ecosystem level, and have proven to be highly relevant to broader resource management issues. Novel methodologies have been employed in the pursuit of these aims, helping to popularise their wider use. More recent work has focused on understanding the processes underlying the variability in response to marine conservation in marine reserves across the spectrum of coastal marine habitats in New Zealand. The LML has probably exceeded the expectations of its founders, who hoped the laboratory might generate information of interest in the fields of resource management, food web dynamics and natural fluctuations distinct from man-induced changes, and its contribution in the field of marine conservation has been significant both within New Zealand and internationally. This has been a 50-year journey that has gone from a focus on local effects of conservation to the broader context, from direct effects of protection to indirect effects, and from small-scale spatial conservation management to ecosystem-based management. © 2013 The Royal Society of New Zealand.",,360-373,,3,47,,New Zealand J.

Combining and analyzing a unique set of long-term time series of ecologic data in and out of fisheries closures from disparate regions, we found that the time to initial detection of direct effects on target species (±SE) was 5.13 ± 1.9 years, whereas initial detection of indirect effects on other taxa, which were often trait mediated, took significantly longer (13.1 ± 2.0 years). Most target species showed initial direct effects, but their trajectories over time were highly variable. Many target species continued to increase, some leveled off, and others decreased. Decreases were due to natural fluctuations, fishing impacts from outside reserves, or indirect effects from target species at higher trophic levels. The average duration of stable periods for direct effects was 6.2 ± 1.2 years, even in studies of more than 15 years. For indirect effects, stable periods averaged 9.1 ± 1.6 years, although this was not significantly different from direct effects.

Despite these methodological advances, the use of SERs has not become routine and ecologists continue to use rarefaction methods that are not spatially explicit. Using two study cases from Italian vegetation surveys, we demonstrate that classic rarefaction methods that do not account for spatial structure can produce inaccurate results. Furthermore, our goal in this paper is to demonstrate how SERs can overcome the problem of spatial autocorrelation in the analysis of plant or animal communities. Our analyses demonstrate that using a spatially-explicit method for constructing rarefaction curves can substantially alter estimates of relative species richness. For both analyzed data sets, we found that the rank ordering of standardized species richness estimates was reversed between the two methods. We strongly advise the use of Spatially Explicit Rarefaction methods when analyzing biodiversity: the inclusion of spatial autocorrelation into rarefaction analyses can substantially alter conclusions and change the way we might prioritize or manage nature reserves. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

Around the world fish assemblages are experiencing pressures from anthropogenic activities, and marine spatial planning is being established to mitigate these impacts and assist with biodiversity conservation. Information about how fish assemblages are structured across a range of spatial scales which encompass variations in physical, biotic and environmental parameters will assist marine spatial planning and management. We investigated differences in reef fish assemblage composition over three reef lines across an inshore to offshore gradient (3–23 m depth) at two marine reserves (70 km apart) in the Perth metropolitan region, Western Australia. There were significant increases in the number of individuals, species richness, and relative abundance of fish species across the shallow shelf depth gradient in the two locations. There were distinct fish assemblages associated with each reef line, correlated to depth and distance from shore. The differences across the shelf gradient, even over this small depth range, were greater than the differences between the two locations. These findings have implications for marine spatial management and the design of marine reserves that aim to conserve biodiversity. It may be most appropriate for such marine reserves to encompass a wide depth gradient, rather than a large longshore area. At the very least, cross and longshore patterns in fish assemblages should be taken into consideration and used to guide spatial management plans for biodiversity conservation. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,246-257,,,218,,Estuar.

Against this backdrop, this article explores current narratives and practices around five protected areas in northern Patagonia, Chile. We argue that environmental discourses are key to understanding these narratives and practices. Environmental discourses influence the values central to the creation and development of protected areas, as well as the prevailing management approaches for these areas. Our findings show that two discourses are of particular importance: the 'Patagonian wilderness' discourse and the 'cultural and natural heritage' discourse. Based on our findings, we also discuss three emerging topics: the rewilding and rebranding of Patagonia, optimism around nature-based tourism, and implementation of global conservation goals within the national context. We reflect on the implications of our findings for further developments in Patagonia and for the global conservation debate. We contend that the future of protected-area management in northern Patagonia will depend on how community-based management initiatives are fostered and argue that aligning with such inclusive conservation approaches will be a critical requirement for the implementation of the 30x30 goal moving forward.] Spanish abstract: rb.gy/gmaziq  © 2024 Bachmann-Vargas et al. 2024.",,25-36,,1,22,,Conserv.

Since signing the Helsinki Convention in 1974, the countries with coasts around the Baltic Sea have striven jointly within the Helsinki Commission (HELCOM) towards the ecological restoration of the Baltic Sea. The European Community signed the revised Convention in 1992. 2. Work under HELCOM includes implementing joint recommendations to curb pollution originating from land and marine sources, ensuring safer maritime traffic, and protecting biodiversity, for example, by setting up a network of Baltic Sea protected areas. 3. A new concept - the ecosystem approach to the management of human activities - was adopted by the Contracting Parties of HELCOM in 2003 to serve as the new framework for further efforts towards attaining good ecological status of the Baltic Sea. 4. Stepwise progress towards the development of quantitative definitions of good ecological status has been made since 2003 to implement the new approach: a common vision reflecting the ecosystem approach was adopted in 2004 and a number of more targeted goals and objectives were agreed in 2006. 5. The Contracting Parties to the Helsinki Convention will use the objectives adopted covering eutrophication, impacts of hazardous substances, and the overall status of biodiversity, including the impact of fisheries and shipping, to draft a new set of joint management actions. 6. In the future, an agreement under development among the Contracting Parties on indicators with quantitative targets will enable a quantitative assessment of 'good ecological status' and progress towards the goals of HELCOM, the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), as well European legislation concerning marine environmental protection.

Through their recent actions, these countries have contributed to progress in Target 11, especially with respect to marine protected area expansion, where they contributed one-sixth of the area added in national waters over the past two years. Results indicate that if implemented as planned, actions proposed by the LMMCs will increase terrestrial and marine protected area coverage by 1,106,148 km2 and 192,214 km2 respectively. Of these commitments, 227,230 km2 in terrestrial and 144,475 km2 in marine protected areas have the highest chance of being implemented. In total, 741 commitments were identified from the above sources, with implications on the qualitative elements of Target 11 (coverage of areas important for biodiversity, areas important for ecosystem services, ecological representation, connectivity, effective management, equitable management, and integration into the wider landscapes and seascapes). Of these 741 commitments, 25% showed a strong likelihood of being implemented. The country-level analysis of all commitments indicates that equitable management and integration will show the most progress, measured against identified gaps, if commitments are implemented as proposed. This progress on the qualitative elements of Target 11 in the LMMCs will also provide benefits and co-benefits for other Aichi Targets and for the requirements of other multi-lateral environmental agreements, as well as at the global level. © 2019 The Authors",,,,,51,,J.

Wolves returned to Germany in 2000 and sporadically to Czech Republic in the 1990s, but only few studies have assessed public attitudes. No research from a protected area visitor perspective has been conducted in Europe, despite their importance for outdoor recreation and nature conservation. We conducted face-to-face surveys of visitors, administered by enumerators during 2018–2019 (n = 869) in the Bavarian Forest and Šumava National Parks, which form a transboundary protected area along the German-Czech border, where the first wolves re-established in 2015. Primarily, we applied aspects of attitude theory, focusing on the components of attitudes (ABC Model of Attitudes) to examine support for wolves from national park visitors (locally and nationally) and if the visitors' attitudes towards wolves differ. We found substantial support for wolves recolonising Germany and Czech Republic (84.5 %), and agreement that wolves belong in these national parks (89.6 %). Attitudes varied most by country of residence, with Czech visitors more supportive than Germans. Transboundary management which recognises the human dimensions of large carnivore conservation is crucial to supporting coexistence. We highlight the importance of understanding the diverse sociocultural backgrounds across Europe which may influence attitudes towards wolves, and nature conservation areas to support long-term transboundary management policies, coexistence goals, and education. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,288,,Biol.

In the Mediterranean, few data are available on the socio-economic consequences of Mpas. The present study reviews the existing data on Mpas in Spain, France, Italy and Greece. A general increase in tourist activities in Mediterranean Mpas is evident, as are increases in the abundances of larger fish species, although there are no data indicating yields for fisheries increase adjacent to Mpas. A large increase in the number of divers and vessels using Mpas has already had impacts on natural benthic communities as a result of diver damage, mooring and the feeding of large fish by divers. Emphasis has been given in only a few Mpas to promoting public awareness of these impacts. Although the conservation of nature should be considered the fundamental objective of Mpas, neglecting their social, cultural and economic impacts has at times led to poor local consensus, if not hostility. We believe that planning and managing Mpas should be conducted on a multidisciplinary basis. Nonetheless, no single model can be considered valid for the whole Mediterranean. The very variable characteristics of coastal areas, from those of small uninhabited islands to those of cities, require different weightings to be assigned for each factor in order to achieve a durable equilibrium and realize the original objectives of each Mpa. Only with such flexibility of management will it be possible to reach a greater understanding of the Mpa system and create a lasting consensus in favour of conservation, a consensus which would mean an overwhelming majority of people actively avoiding damaging nature and preventing others from doing so.",,110-125,,2,27,,Environ.

This study aims to investigate the spatial and temporal trends and characteristics of conflicts between rural communities and wild animals in a protected area in northeastern Iran. We collected data on wild animals’ attacks on humans and livestock and damages to crops within the Ors-e-Sistan Protected Area (OSPA) and its 5 km buffer zone for 2010–2020 via official reports and questionnaire surveys (n = 373). We found that multiple species-specific and human-related factors determine conflict hotspots in space and time. Wild boars (Sus scrofa), wolves (Canis lupus) and leopards (Panthera pardus saxicolor) were perceived to be responsible for the highest number of attacks on humans and livestock. Wild boars were responsible for more than 90% of attacks on agricultural lands. Hotspots of attacks on livestock were located in the pastures around villages and pastures within the protected area. In contrast, hotspot areas of attacks on humans and damage to crops were located in the orchards and farms of villages on the protected area’s northern and southern fringes. Temporal patterns in the variability of conflict revealed that grazing seasons and species’ nocturnal behaviors caused more attacks and damages during warm seasons and nights. Conflict hotspots and their temporal clustering, identified in this study, can guide managers to focus mitigation activities in prioritized areas and allocate management resources that reduce conflicts between people and wild animals. The assessment of the type of species and their characteristics, land-use type, and distribution of human settlements is recommended when identifying locations and occasions of conflicts. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,4239-4257,,13,32,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,anthropogenic effect; assessment method; buffer zone; Conflict hotspot mapping; Conservation conflict; conservation management; grazing; Human–wildlife conflict; Iran; livestock; Livestock predation; mapping method; mitigation; Mitigation; nature-society relations; pig; predation; protected area; Protected area management; spatiotemporal analysis,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Low selective bottom trawl nets have exacerbated this situation by catching large numbers of under-sized or immature individuals of targeted and not-targeted commercial species that are subsequently discarded. EU legislation requires EU Mediterranean countries to recover demersal fish stocks to sustainable levels by January 2025. This is a challenging requirement under current management scenarios that mainly focus on reducing fishing hours, compromising the activity of the fleets. While social networks among fishing fleets and fisherman associations are essential for facilitating the transition to sustainable exploitation, improving the selectivity of bottom trawl gears is proposed as a viable option beyond reducing fishing hours. This study presents the benefits of improving bottom trawlers net selectivity in multi-species NW Mediterranean coastal and deep-sea fisheries to reduce the catch of non-commercial sizes and discards. Data from selectivity experiments and literature review, fish market landings and a regional monitoring program in the FAO geographical sub-area 6 were used. Results indicate that in the short term, enhanced selectivity leads to an increase in the proportion of fish that are closer to their minimum conservation reference sizes or sizes at maturity, while minimising the impact on commercial catches. Sustainability may be achieved, though beyond 2025, with measures complementing selectivity. These include the adoption of semi-pelagic otter doors to mitigate the impact of trawlers on the seabed and the expansion of no-take marine reserves to ensure habitat recovery and spillover effects. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,165,,Mar.

Aims Patterns of sequential nest-hole use are important in understanding the inter- and intraspecific relationships of hole-nesting birds. We studied the hole reuse at both guild and species level, and examined the characteristics of reused holes. Methods The fieldwork was carried out in a strictly protected area in Mongolia. Occupied nest-holes were searched for all hole-nesting species in two subsequent years. The characteristics of nest-holes and nest trees were recorded. Results Of 105 holes occupied in 2002, 40 (38%) were reused in the following year. The reuse rate for holes previously used by non-excavators was 48%, and subsequent occupation was almost exclusively by the same species. Reuse rates for previous woodpecker and Willow Tit Poecile montanus holes were 31% and 16%, respectively, and the subsequent users were more frequently a different species. Nuthatches and Coal Tits had the highest propensity to reuse holes. Holes located in living parts of trees were reused more often than those in dead wood. Conclusion The tendency to reuse holes could be influenced by the ability to excavate, the ability to compete for nest-sites, and the quality and abundance of preferred hole type of each bird species. The high reuse rate of certain holes would indicate good qualities and/or more limited availability of such holes. The more stable microclimate and greater protection from predation might account for the frequent reuse of holes in living wood. © 2008 British Trust for Ornithology.",,161-168,,2,55,,Bird Study,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: British Trust for Ornithology,,,,Asia; Aves; boreal forest; breeding population; CAVITY-NESTING BIRDS; COTTONWOOD BOTTOMLAND; dead wood; DECIDUOUS FOREST; Eurasia; EUROPEAN STARLINGS; Far East; habitat availability; habitat quality; habitat selection; INTERIOR BRITISH-COLUMBIA; Mongolia; nest site; nesting; NORTHERN FLICKERS; Parus montanus; passerine; Periparus ater; PRIMEVAL FOREST; REPRODUCTIVE SUCCESS; Salix; SITE CHARACTERISTICS; Sitta europaea; Sittidae; space use; TREE SWALLOWS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Using China's ecological conservation redline as a basis, here we put forward a framework that combines ecosystem services, ecological sensitivity, and biodiversity indicators (including 10,311 species) to determine ecological priorities across Mainland Southeast Asia (M-SEA).

This study demonstrated the hierarchical pattern of distributions, with areas of high relative density occurring within a broader protected area that the animals were known to regularly frequent.

Hence, conservation interventions must proceed carefully to avoid unintended consequences. A common invaded ecosystem motif consists of an invasive apex predator, an invasive mesopredator, and a native prey species—for example feral cats, rats and native seabirds. Eradication programs that specifically target apex predators can lead to mesopredator release, which may (and paradoxically) increase negative impacts on native species. We seek to develop management strategies that can remove both invasive predators, while allowing for the best recovery scenario for the native species. Specifically, we use systems of differential equations to model interacting species, and we seek to understand whether the two invasive species should be eradicated sequentially or simultaneously, when the latter option means that scarce management resources must be shared between the species. We find that (1) simultaneous eradication of both invasive species provides the greatest benefit for the native species, but (2) a sequential approach can be cheaper. Importantly, cheaper strategies incur the risk of poor native species recovery. Whether the cheaper option is to remove the apex predator first or the mesopredator first depends primarily on whether the mesopredator prefers the native species or alternative food sources. Hence, with limited knowledge of prey preferences, the simulations predator eradication strategy has the best chance of minimising unintended negative effects for native prey species. © 2019, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,1085-1095,,3,22,,Biol.

While the benefits derived from MPA establishment are often optimistically framed as a “win-win” for both marine biodiversity and for the wellbeing of coastal peoples, this assumption is challenged for several reasons, including the fact that current science and practice frequently fails to account for the full impact of MPAs on human wellbeing. This context poses a danger that the context specific, place based aspects of wellbeing, like relations to others and the marine environment, will not be accounted for, examined, or reported in evaluation and decision-making processes. To address this challenge, this research investigates how MPA implementation can change and challenge the relational wellbeing and relational values of small-scale fishers (SSFs) living in Mnazi Bay-Ruvuma Estuary Marine Park, Tanzania. Fieldwork occurred over 2019–2020 and used qualitative data collection methods, including: 140 semi-structured interviews, document analysis, and observation. Results highlight a dynamic interaction between the MPA and SSFs relational wellbeing, including how relational values inform everyday fishing practices, cultural and place identities, as well as interactions with others and connections to the marine environment. Top-down approaches used in MPA development worked against key relational values, including social cohesion, reciprocity, place, agency and self-determination to dismantle and disrupt the practices SSFs viewed as fundamental to their livelihood and collective wellbeing. Our findings serve as a starting point to better recognize the context specific factors that underlie relational wellbeing and give insight into how relational values shape social-ecological complexity within coastal communities. The paper highlights how the international marine conservation community can better account for and foster relational wellbeing and relational values to achieve the goals of both human wellbeing and marine biodiversity conservation. © Copyright © 2021 Baker, Murray, Kaijage, Levine, Gill and Makupa.",,,,,8,,Front.

Monitoring feral cats through the use of detection dogs could provide a useful technique to complement existing feral cat survey and control methods. Aim: To demonstrate and quantify the ability of trained detection dogs to reliably and efficiently detect feral cat scats when present in woodland conservation reserves in the Wheatbelt of Western Australia. Methods: Cat scats were randomly placed into 466 1.5 ha (150 m × 100 m) quadrats in Tutanning Nature Reserve, Western Australia, and the location of the scat was recorded. Quadrats were then independently searched by dogs walking a central transect line and the locations of all scats detected were recorded, with the distance from the scat to the transect subsequently being calculated. Data collected allowed the relationship between distance from the transect and detection probability to be used to assist modelling of detection probabilities. Key results: Dogs detected scats in 213 (55%) of 384 quadrats that were searched using a single transect line method. All indications of a find by the detector dogs were associated with a cat scat (no false indications). Detection probabilities for scats declined with distance from the transect line and with an increasing age of the scat. Simulations to investigate management options for cat control programs quantified effort required to detect cat scats under varying densities. Conclusion: Dogs were highly efficient at detecting scats within the woodland environment of the Western Australian wheatbelt. The effort required to detect a scat was considerably higher when cat density was low. Implications: On the basis of the detection probabilities derived from the present study, trained scat-detection dogs can be expected to efficiently search woodlands and find cat scats by using an effective sweep width of 100 m (50 m either side of a transect) when scats are fresh. Sweep widths need to be reduced significantly if it is important to locate scats that have been exposed to the elements for greater periods of time, or to search habitats where terrain and vegetation cover are more challenging. © 2021 CSIRO.",,690-700,,8,48,,Wildl.

However, the theory of marine reserves indicates that reserves are more likely to benefit fisheries in areas of heavy fishing activity that would otherwise be overfished. Whether or not fishing catch is calculated as a cost depends on the balance of conservation and fisheries goals for a reserve, and thus is critical for policymakers to consider when designing marine reserve networks. This research shows the utility of running an inverted cost model of fishery catches during marine reserve spatial prioritization as a first step in a marine planning process oriented towards stabilizing local fisheries. This technique serves as a heuristic tool that may help conservation planners explore regions that would otherwise be overlooked if fisheries data were absent or integrated purely as a cost in the planning process. Drawing on data from Madagascar to illustrate our approach, this research demonstrates that the regions most frequently selected using the inverted cost model not only meet conservation targets, but are also those most accessible to community-based resource managers, the dominant management paradigm in Madagascar as well as in many developing countries. © 2019",,,,,178,,Ocean Coast.

This is particularly true for small-scale fisheries (SSFs) when fishermen are engaged in management and collaborate with MPA managers and scientists. Small-scale fisheries are widespread along Mediterranean coasts, and in Albania, they have developed remarkably since the 1990s. In 2010, the area of Karaburun and Sazani was declared as the first MPA in Albania. Two fishing communities located in different harbors operate locally, fishing outside the MPA and in its buffer zone. One fishing community is more willing to collaborate with scientists and managers, whereas the other is more reluctant to collaborate. The aim of this study was to quantify and compare catch composition, total catches, and CPUE between the two fishing fleets under the general hypothesis that fishermen engagement and a more collaborative attitude can lead to larger catches. Results showed that on average, fishermen from the more collaborative fishing community usually deployed shorter nets within the MPA but obtained higher total catches and CPUEs than fishermen from the less-collaborative community. These findings—despite being inconclusive due to the limited sample size, reduced sampling period, and correlative approach—highlight the potential benefits delivered by the adoption of a collaborative approach and specifically provide a baseline for building sound management plans for SSFs in Albania in the future. © 2018 The Authors.",,527-535,,6,10,,Mar.

The results indicate that the supporting and regulating functions, such as aquifers, fauna and flora habitats, and carbon sequestration and storage, are the ones that require the most effective environmental impact mitigation measures. This approach can contribute not only to academic works, but to different economic sectors to achieve sustainable development. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,131,,Land Use Policy,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,anthropogenic effect; Brazil; Caraguatatuba; ecological impact; ecosystem function; Ecosystem impacts; ecosystem service; Ecosystem services; geodiversity; Geodiversity; land use; protected area; Protected areas; quantitative analysis; Sao Paulo [Brazil]; Serra do Mar,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Ultimately the barriers for MPAs’ effectiveness are the same ones in the way of sustainable development as a whole; there are larger-scale, systemic barriers which need to be tackled to change the narrative of conservation being a cost to society - rather than a benefit.

Protection actions are often implemented without considering connectivity between habitats. In this article, we project and prioritise Mediterranean seagrass habitats (Posidonia oceanica and Cymodocea nodosa) based on their potential as sources/retention and stepping stones for dispersal propagules of the associated biotic communities. We use this information to identify gaps in the protection of highly ranked habitats. Location: Mediterranean Sea. Methods: We related seagrass observations with marine environmental predictors to run species distribution models and infer the distribution of Mediterranean seagrasses. We then used a network-based approach (CONEFOR) to rank patches of seagrass suitable areas based on their contribution to the seascape in terms of patch area, potential as source/retention of propagules and stepping stone. Finally, by overlaying our ranking with the spatial distribution of marine protected areas (MPAs), we identified potential gaps in the protection of important seagrass habitats across the Mediterranean and its basins. Results: Most of the identified patches of seagrass suitable areas are not included in MPAs, only reaching a maximum protection coverage of ~50% in the Northwestern Mediterranean. Relatively few patches contribute disproportionately to connectivity, but top-ranked habitat patches are not included within the existing MPAs network, both at the Mediterranean scale and for most basins. The largest gaps for the source/sink role are in the Aegean and Ionian Sea, and largest gaps for the stepping stone role are in the Adriatic, Ionian and Tyrrhenian Sea. Main Conclusions: Our results suggest that the current MPAs network fails to protect highly relevant patches of seagrass suitable areas in most of the Mediterranean basins. However, this gap could be filled by a few well-placed MPAs. Overall, we provide novel insights for the identification of key habitats and planning novel coastal MPAs in the region. © 2024 The Author(s).

We aimed to describe responses of the vegetation in the lower Volga Delta to these substantial sea-level changes using an analysis of historic vegetation maps produced by aerial photography and satellite imagery. The sea level drop in the earlier part of the century was followed by rapid progression of the vegetation. The subsequent rapid sea-level rise in the 1980s did however not result in similarly rapid regression of the vegetation. This partial irreversibility of the vegetation response to sea-level change is explained by the wide flooding tolerance of the major emergent species, namely Phragmites australis. Floating vegetation increased in extent, most likely due to the increased availability of more favourable conditions, particularly for Nelumbo nucifera, a tropical plant reaching its northernmost distribution in the Volga Delta. This species increased in distribution from 3.5 ha in the 1930s throughout the entire Volga Delta to several thousands of hectares in the Astrakhanskiy Biosphere Reserve alone in the 1980s. The reported sea-level changes swept the ecosystems in the Astrakhanskiy Biosphere Reserve back and forth within the Reserve boundaries. At longer time scales, ten-fold greater sea-level change has been reported. The ecosystems for which the Reserve is renowned might be pushed completely out of the Reserve under these conditions.

England, is a commercial and military port and the site of a major naval dockyard. Parts of the estuary require regular maintenance dredging and some capital dredging has been undertaken. The estuary is also assigned Special Area of Conservation (SAC) status under the European Habitats Directive and is an important site for migrating wildfowl and wading birds. As part of an assessment undertaken for a consortium of the port operators and regulatory authorities, we have analysed the ecological, physical, chemical and socio-economic impacts of dredging on the Tamar Estuary ecosystem. This paper focuses on the physical changes through the analysis of historical survey data and the use of hydrodynamic modelling. The objective was to evaluate whether dredging has influenced the estuary morphology or hydrodynamic regime and thus impacted on the ecological habitat. Bathymetric survey data collected between 1895 and 1968 were compared with multi-beam echo sounder data obtained in 2001. The paper survey records were digitised, geo-referenced and adjusted to the modern datum and units. The accuracy and limitations of this approach are discussed. Both sets of data were contoured and analysed using a GIS package. Comparisons between 1895 and 2001 hydraulics were made using a 1-D hydrodynamic and sediment transport model set up for the bathymetry at those times but 'driven' using a single, common, year-long data set for tides and river flows. The results suggest that although the deep channel in the region that is mainly south of the Tamar road bridge, is on average 0.5 m deeper in 2001 than it was in 1895, this has had a negligible effect on the area of intertidal mud and, thus, on habitat available for wading birds, and minimal impact on the large-scale hydrodynamics of the estuary. © 2007 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,83-95,,,588,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: Hydrobiologia,,,,anthropogenic effect; assessment method; Aves; bathymetric survey; bathymetry; Bathymetry; conservation status; Deep channels; dredging; Dredging; Dredging impact; ecological impact; England; Estuaries; estuarine ecosystem; Estuary; Eurasia; Europe; Geographic information systems; GIS; hydrodynamics; Hydrodynamics; hydrological modeling; Large-scale hydrodynamics; morphodynamics; Morphology; River control; Sediment; sediment transport; socioeconomic impact; Surface morphology; Tamar Estuary [England]; United Kingdom; Western Europe,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Hydrobiologia,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, a comprehensive checklist of the current marine fishes occurring in the province that can be used for diversity conservation priorities is still lacking. This paper aims to present an updated checklist of marine fishes recorded in Palawan waters (including new records) and their current conservation status. Underwater visual census (UVC) surveys (2003–2021), and published literature from 156 sites were used to compile the checklist, and the species’ updated nomenclatures were also presented. Currently, 1,056 marine fishes (32 elasmobranchs, 1,024 bony fishes) are included in the list, classified under two classes, 42 orders, 115 families, and 366 genera. More species were recorded in the Sulu Sea (904) than in the West Philippine Sea (557) which could be attributed to more studies being conducted in the former than in the latter. We also included 299 newly recorded species in this province, mostly from UVC surveys. Most of the species have Least Concern and Not Evaluated IUCN status, but a few species are already threatened, comprised mostly of elasmobranchs. Necessary information from this checklist is crucial in crafting a management plan for the protection and conservation of marine fishes in Palawan and nearby areas, especially those that are already declared as threatened species. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,60,,Reg.

Europe has very few marine reserves; they are very small and almost all are in the Mediterranean. There are at present no official plans to create effective systems of marine reserves. Europe has many so-called Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). These are marine areas with some extra regulations or planning procedures. MPAs aim to make human activities more efficient and more sustainable. MPAs are user-orientated, knowledge-based, locality-dependent, problem-solving extensions of standard marine planning and management. Marine reserves are quite different. All extractive and potentially disturbing human activities are prohibited. The burden of proof is reversed; no evidence of damage or danger to particular species or habitats is required; all marine life is protected on principle. The concept of marine reserves is simple and practical, but because it is new, different and additional to existing marine management, the idea is seen by many as revolutionary. Basic biological principles and practical experience in many countries make it clear that marine reserves are important to science and education, essential for conservation and useful in resource management. These features apply in all regions and ecosystems. They are independent of climate, biogeography, current human activities and the present management. Representative and viable systems of marine reserves are needed in all regions. Fishing and other human disturbances have been widespread and intensive for so long that it is very difficult to predict the stages of recovery that occur in marine reserves. Furthermore, while some features change rapidly (e.g. numbers of previously targeted species), recovery continues for a long time (e.g. fourth- and fifth-order trophic and structural changes after >25 years). None of this alters the fact that, in scientific terms, marine reserves are controls not manipulations. Such controls are required if scientists are to understand the intrinsic processes and obtain data that are not confounded by human activities (e.g. separating natural variation from fishing effects). No significant progress will be made to establish marine reserves in Europe until scientists speak out strongly and clearly on the issue. We consider it is part of our professional duty as marine biologists to state publicly and frequently the need for a representative, replicated, networked and sustainable system of highly protected marine reserves. We doubt if our grandchildren will accept any excuses if we fail. © 2008 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,35-44,,,606,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: Hydrobiologia,,,,Biodiversity; Conservation; environmental planning; environmental protection; Environmental regulations; Eurasia; Europe; human activity; Marine biology; marine park; Marine Protected Areas (MPA); Marine reserves; Mediterranean Sea; Ocean habitats; Professional aspects; Professional duty; resource management; Scientific benefits; sustainable development; Systems,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Within the Ross Sea, Antarctica, the least altered marine ecosystem on Earth, unusually large and closely interacting populations of several marine bird and mammal species co-exist. Understanding how that is possible is important to maintaining the ecological integrity of the system, the major goal in designating the Ross Sea as an MPA. We report analyses of niche occupation, two-dimensional habitat use, and overlap for the majority (9) of mesopredator species in the Ross Sea considering three components: (1) diet, (2) vertical distribution and (3) horizontal distribution. For (1) and (2) we used information in the literature; for (3) we used maximum entropy modeling to project species' distributions from occurrence data from several ocean cruises and satellite telemetry, correlated with six environmental variables. Results identified and ranked areas of importance in a conservation prioritization framework. While diet overlapped intensively, some spatial partitioning existed in the vertical dimension (diving depth). Horizontal partitioning, however, was the key structuring factor, defined by three general patterns of environmental suitability: (1) continental shelf break, (2) shelf and slope, and (3) marginal ice zone of the pack ice surrounding the Ross Sea post-polynya. In aggregate, the nine mesopredators used the entire continental shelf and slope, allowing the large populations of these species to co-exist. Conservation prioritization analyses identified the outer shelf and slope and the deeper troughs in the Ross Sea shelf to be most important. Our results substantially improve understanding of these species' niche occupation and imply that a piecemeal approach to MPA designation in this system is not likely to be successful. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,72-82,,,156,,Biol.

It is a poorly known species categorized as ""Endangered"" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). This lack of knowledge and the high rates of deforestation of its habitat makes its conservation a priority. Objective: To summarize the historical records deposited in scientific collections, to create potential distribution maps, and to analyze the conservation status of the species. Methods: We obtained species occurrence data from literature and digital databases, analyzing them by the decade. We used GARP and MaxEnt software to generate the ecological niche models. The importance of the variables in the model was estimated using the Jackknife technique. Results: Over 129 years, 19 collectors registered 69 specimens, of which 65 are deposited in one national and seven international collections. Although the species has only been collected in Jalisco and Colima, the potential distribution for X. nelsoni also includes the state of Michoacán. Of this estimated area, only 1.5 % is in a Protected Natural Area. Conclusions: The results of the potential distribution could be used to verify the presence of the species in places where it has not been collected, such as the northern part of the Chamela-Cuixmala Biosphere Reserve and in some areas of the physiographic province Costas del Sur in the state of Michoacán. It is needed to increase samplings in the least studied regions predicted by the model and expand the area of protection. © 2023 The Authors.",,,,,71,,Rev. Biol.

In the paper, starting from the consideration of publicly owned assets as 'semi-commons', we propose a method based on the comparison of planning instruments related to the different uses, and try to model them in a grid, where different weights and degrees of evaluation can be considered, in order to promote, rather than blocking, possible activities, compatible with concurrent use. The military areas in Sardinia (region and island, Italy) are around 234 km(2), which constitutes 60% of the national surface affected by military easements. This situation is due to its geographic position, considered centrality in the Mediterranean for strategic reasons. This contribution evaluates the performance of the Local Coastline Plan (LCP) and the Site management plan of Community Interest (SCI) in conditions of military constraint. The case study is the municipality of Villaputzu South Sardinia, Italy), where an important coastal military easement and the use of the coast for recreational tourism purposes coexist together through specific planning, a consequence of institutional agreements between the Municipal Administration of Villaputzu and the Ministry of Defense. The idea is considering the concurrent possible land uses guaranteed by the different planning instruments, instead of focusing, as it is generally the rule, on the sum of constraints provided by the laws. The local coastline plan has been identified as the ideal planning tool, which addresses the co-existence of apparently opposite land uses and interests, as those expressed by the local municipal planning and those expressed by the military. An evaluation of the congruence of the specific objectives of the LCP and SCI shows how their combined action favors the environmental enhancement of Sardinia, contributing to the formation of ecosystem services, even in particular conditions arising from military easements. These are sites that evolve from 'anticommons' to 'semicommons'. In fact, the military release process in Sardinia, together with the promiscuous military and civil use, activates unique governance policies of their kind that find a significant field of application in Sardinia to guarantee sustainable renewal of economic development of the 'semi-commons' awaiting to become 'commons'.",,,,2,12,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000516824600180,,,,,,,ANTICOMMONS; CONSERVATION; ecosystem services; IMPACT; landscape connectivity; Natura 2000 network; PROPERTY; protected areas and spatial planning; semi-commons; strategic environmental assessment; TRAGEDY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We must obviously strive to curb growth in resource-intensive demand, but we also need to identify production systems that meet people's needs at least overall cost to nature. The land-sharing/sparing concept provides a quantitative framework for doing this, centred around the principle that generating meaningful insights requires comparing alternatives that are matched in terms of overall production. Applications of this framework to >2500 individually assessed species of vertebrates, plants and insects across five continents show that most species decline under farming, and that most would fare least badly under a land-sparing approach – with high-yield production meeting demand in a relatively small, farmed area, freeing-up space for conservation of intact habitats elsewhere in the landscape. However, important questions remain around how to deliver high yields sustainably, and how to ensure high-yield farming does indeed spare natural habitat. The framework is increasingly being applied in other domains too – including urban planning, recreation, forestry and fisheries – where it has the potential to shed light on long-running debates about whether nature would prefer us to concentrate our impact or spread it more lightly but widely. The realization that conservation cannot be delivered without simultaneously considering how humanity meets its needs in these and other sectors is of particular significance as policymakers meet to establish global environmental targets through to 2030 and beyond. © 2021 The Zoological Society of London",,79-109,,2,315,,J.

Impact avoidance via appropriate site selection is the most effective means for preventing or alleviating damage from wind energy. Appropriate site selection requires a knowledge of landscape priorities. Here, we used a Spatial Conservation Prioritisation software to identify priority areas for bird conservation in relation to onshore wind energy in Finland, providing spatial guidance for impact avoidance at the national level. We showed that high bird priority areas are mainly concentrated in coastal and adjacent areas, thus entailing marked regional differences and responsibilities. Only a fraction of high priority areas (e.g., 15 % of 10 % top priority areas) is under some level of protection, indicating that the network of protected areas should be expanded to safeguard sensitive species. We found that the west coast, in particular, concentrates potential conflicts between birds and wind energy due to the co-occurrence of high priority areas and extensive wind energy development regionally. Thus, focusing conservation action away from areas already extensively targeted by wind energy cannot meet the conservation needs of many sensitive species, some of which occur exclusively or mainly in coastal areas. We recommend that birds be protected by avoiding construction in high priority areas and conducting careful spatial planning in coastal and potentially high conflict areas. Our results can contribute to bird conservation schemes, while addressing the pressing issue of biodiversity protection in the context of energy transition. © 2022",,,,,277,,Biol.

Despite being a maritime nation with an extensive coastline along four seas, Türkiye has largely overlooked MSP. Therefore, this study aims to address this gap by establishing key considerations for MSP in the context of Türkiye. Although Türkiye is home to vital and rapidly expanding maritime activities, its maritime sector's management is hampered by a lack of comprehensive data, inadequate planning, sector-based management, and outdated legislation. The increasing overlap in the use and potential development zones—such as marine protected areas (MPA), offshore wind farms (OWF), aquaculture, and marine tourism—exhibits both synergistic and conflicting dynamics that will progressively escalate the indirect costs tied to current maritime management practices. Türkiye's 2053 vision, aiming to ensure security of supply in food and energy, enhance sustainable resource use, and establish the country as a global logistics hub, further underscores the critical need for MSP. MSP involves the implementation of many concepts emerging from the developing environmental management paradigm within a broad framework. While Türkiye keeps pace with the rest of the world in adopting concepts that have become international norms, difficulties in operationalizing these concepts make the development of institutional capacity a priority. Considering the similarities between MSP and large scale MPA, which strike a balance between conservation and human use, the Sea of Marmara Special Environmental Protection Area, established in 2021, can provide a starting point for MSP in Türkiye. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,81,,Reg.

Location: Islands in Tierra del Fuego and Malvinas/Falklands. Time period: Last glacial period to the present. Taxon: Phalcoboenus australis. Methods: We used RAD sequencing to assess genetic diversity, population structure and to model demographic history through descriptive and hypothesis-based evolutionary methods. Results: We found evidence of two independent lineages: one inhabiting the Fuegian archipelago and the other one occurring in the Islas Malvinas/Falkland Islands, with the latter presenting higher genetic diversity and evidence of finer-scale population structure. The best supported demographic scenario places the divergence time of these lineages during the last glacial period (ca. 50,000 years ago), with the occurrence of gene flow during the first 27,000 years after their divergence. Recent demographic modelling supports the general pattern of increasing genetic variability as landmasses were uncovered following the glacial period (i.e., the Fuegian archipelago) in contrast with a decrease in genetic diversity associated to island fragmentation (i.e., in the Islas Malvinas/Falkland Islands). Main Conclusions: We propose that post-glacial sea level rise and the subsequent isolation across the submerging Patagonian Shelf have driven population fragmentation and recent genetic structure in this species. Our findings advocate for recognising the two identified divergent lineages as distinct conservation units. We highlight the intricate interplay of ecological factors, glacial cycles and population dynamics in shaping the evolutionary trajectory of this unique and threatened raptor species in southern South America. © 2025 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,,,,,,J.

Our analysis of gaps in high seas management indicates that a paradigm shift to a more systematic approach will be needed to safeguard high seas biodiversity from mounting threats. Experience from terrestrial and coastal areas indicates that a systematic approach to conservation planning and management can help to maintain ecosystem health and productivity while enabling sustainable use. Our analysis further demonstrates that the current legal regime on the high seas is insufficient to realize these objectives: management institutions have neither an adequate mandate for integrated planning nor the ability to effectively coordinate across multiple management regimes. We identify key elements for future high seas management and posit that a two-pronged approach is most promising: the development of an improved global legal regime that incorporates systematic planning as well as the expansion of existing and new regional agreements and mandates.

We used data from a coastal social–ecological monitoring program in 6 Indo-Pacific countries to analyze whether social, ecological, and economic objectives and specific management rules (temporal closures, fishing gear-specific, species-specific restrictions) were associated with coral reef fish biomass above sustainable yield levels across different types of area-based management tools (i.e., comparing those designated as marine protected areas [MPAs] with other types of area-based management). All categories of objectives, multiple combinations of rules, and all types of area-based management had some sites that were able to sustain high levels of reef fish biomass—a key measure for coral reef functioning—compared with reference sites with no area-based management. Yet, the same management types also had sites with low biomass. As governments advance their commitments to the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework and the target to conserve 30% of the planet's land and oceans by 2030, we found that although different types of management can be effective, most of the managed areas in our study regions did not meet criteria for effectiveness.

We developed a three-phased approach for executing our research: building research partnerships, carrying out individual interviews, and holding community discussion sessions. Participants expressed a common goal of recovering depleted species and ensuring the sustainability of indigenous fishing. We found strong support for spatial protection measures, and significant overlaps amongst participants in the areas suggested for protection. The most common type of protection recommended by participants was the exclusion of commercial and recreational fisheries while allowing for indigenous fishing; this stands in contrast to the emphasis on strict no-take MPAs advocated in the literature. Similarities in the goal, and level and areas of protection point to a gap in conservation approaches: the conservation of important areas and resources to indigenous people, allowing the continued practice and adaptation of their culture.

Climate change makes the consideration of the dynamics of ecological processes in the design of marine protected areas critical. We analyzed sea-surface temperature (SST) trends and variability in Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (GBRMP) for 25 years and formulated and tested whether three sets of notional conservation objectives were met to illustrate the potential for planning to address climate change. Given mixed and limited evidence that no-take areas increase resilience to disturbances such as anomalously high temperatures (i.e., temperatures ?1 °C above weekly mean temperature), our conservation objectives focused on areas less likely to be affected by such events at extents ranging from the entire Great Barrier Reef to the system of no-take zones and individual no-take zones. The objective sets were (1) at least 50% of temperature refugia (i.e., pixels that had high-temperature anomalies <5% or <7% of the time) within no-take zones, (2) maximum occurrence of high-temperature anomalies is <10%,< 20%, or <30% of total no-take area 90% of the time, and (3) coverage of any single no-take zone by high-temperature anomalies occurs <5% or <10% of the time. We used satellite imagery from 1985-2009 to measure SST to determine high-temperature anomalies. SSTs in the Great Barrier Reef increased significantly in some regions, and some of the conservation objectives were met by the park's current zoning plan.

The challenge is to secure a future for marine life while minimizing impacts on fishers and fishing communities. Methods and Principal Findings: Rather than selecting areas where fishing is banned - as is usually the case with spatial management - we assess the concept of designating areas where fishing is permitted. We use spatial catch statistics for thirteen commercial fisheries on Canada's west coast to determine the minimum area that would be needed to maintain a pre-ascribed target percentage of current catches. We found that small reductions in fisheries yields, if strategically allocated, could result in large unfished areas that are representative of biophysical regions and habitat types, and have the potential to achieve remarkable conservation gains. Conclusions: Our approach of selecting fishing areas instead of reserves could help redirect debate about the relative values that society places on conservation and extraction, in a framework that could gain much by losing little.

Currently, surrogate measures are most often based on broad-scale (100-1000s of km) bioregional frameworks that define general categories (sandy beach, rocky shore) for intertidal systems. These broad-scale categories are inadequate when making decisions about conservation priorities at the local level (10-100s of m). In this study, 'shoreline types', derived using physical properties of the shoreline, were used as a surrogate for intertidal biodiversity to assist with the identification of sites to be included in a representative system of marine reserves. The use of local-scale shoreline types increased the likelihood that sites identified for conservation achieved representation goals for the mosaic of habitats and microhabitats, and therefore the associated biodiversity present on rocky shores, than that provided by the existing marine reserve protection. These results indicate that using broad-scale surrogate measures (rocky shore, sandy beach) for biodiversity (habitats, microhabitats and species) are likely to result in poor representation of fine-scale habitats and microhabitats, and therefore intertidal assemblages in marine reserves. When additional fine-scale data were added to reserve selection the summed irreplaceability of 24% (for spatial extent of habitats), and 29% (for presence/absence of microhabitats) of rocky shore sites increased above 0, where a value close to 1 means a site is necessary, for inclusion in a reserve system, to meet conservation targets. The use of finer-scale physical data to support marine reserve design is more likely to result in the selection of reserves that achieve representation at habitat and microhabitat levels, increasing the likelihood that conservation goals will be achieved. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

Often, the decisions about where to locate reserves must be made in the absence of detailed information on the patterns of distribution of the biota.

Surrogate measures of biodiversity enable decisions about where to locate marine reserves to be made more reliably in the absence of detailed data on the distribution of species. 2. Intertidal habitat types derived using physical properties of the shoreline were used as a surrogate for intertidal biodiversity to assist with the identification of sites for inclusion in a candidate system of intertidal marine reserves for 17 463 km of the mainland coast of Queensland, Australia. This represents the first systematic approach, on essentially one-dimensional data, using fine-scale (tens to hundreds of metres) intertidal habitats to identify a system of marine reserves for such a large length of coast. A range of solutions would provide for the protection of a representative example of intertidal habitats in Queensland. 3. The design and planning of marine and terrestrial protected areas systems should not be undertaken independently of each other because it is likely to lead to inadequate representation of intertidal habitats in either system. The development of reserve systems specially designed to protect intertidal habitats should be integrated into the design of terrestrial and marine protected area systems.

The common leopard (Panthera pardus) serves an important ecological function as a member of the big carnivore guild, but little is known about how climate change may affect their distribution. In this study, we use MaxEnt to simulate the geographic distributions by illustrating potential present and future ranges of common leopard by utilizing presence records alongside important topographic and bioclimatic variables based on two shared socioeconomic pathways (SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5) scenarios. The goals of this study was to look into possible distribution ranges of common leopards due to climate change, as well as explore the implications for conservation and potential conflict with humans. At present, 4% of Nepal was found to be highly suitable for common leopards, 43% suitable, 19% marginally suitable, and 34% unsuitable. A large portion of the climatically suitable habitat was confined to non-protected areas, and the majority of the highly suitable habitat was encompassed by forest land, followed by agricultural areas. Elevation, mean temperature of driest quarter, annual precipitation, and precipitation seasonality were the variables influencing habitat suitability for the common leopard. A significant increase in marginally suitable habitat was observed in the high mountain region, indicating a shift of habitat in upper elevation areas due to the effects of climate change. We recommend timely management of these potential habitats to expand the range of this vulnerable species. At the same time, a combination of expanding new habitats and poor management practices could escalate human-leopard conflict. Therefore, further study on the impact of climate change on the distribution of prey species and proper habitat management techniques should be prioritized to mitigate conflicts. © 2023",,,,1,9,,Heliyon,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,Climate change; Common leopard; Conflict; Distribution; Himalayas,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In this study, we determine some chemical characteristics related to plant nutritional quality and its variability among and within five tree species, these being the main components of the mountain forests of SE Spain, with the aim of determining their influence on food selection by this generalist herbivore. We analyse nitrogen, total phenols, condensed tannins and fibre concentration as an indicator of the nutritive value of the different trees. To determine the preference by the domestic goat, we performed two types of feeding-choice assays, where goats had to select between different species or between branches of the same species but from trees of different nutritional quality. The analysis of the plant nutritional quality showed significant differences in the chemical characteristics between species, and a high variability within species. However, when faced with different tree species, the domestic goat selected some of them but showed striking individual differences between goats. When selecting between trees of the same species, the goats showed no differential selection. This limited effect of chemical plant characteristics, together with the variability in foraging behaviour, resulted in a widespread consumption of diverse plant species, which can potentially modulate the effect of the goat on vegetation composition, and open the way for the conservation of traditional livestock grazing on natural protected areas. © 2008 Elsevier Masson SAS.

Existing GBI designs lacked a systematic method to allocate restoration zones. This study proposes a novel approach for systematically selecting cost-effective areas for restoration on the basis of biodiversity, ecosystem services, and ecosystem condition to give an optimal spatial design of GBI. The approach was tested at a regional scale, in a transboundary setting encompassing the Intercontinental Biosphere Reserve of the Mediterranean in Andalusia (Spain) – Morocco (IBRM), across three aquatic ecosystems: freshwater, coastal and marine. We applied Marxan with Zones to stakeholder-defined scenarios of GBI in the IBRM. Specifically, we aimed to identify management zones within the GBl that addressed different conservation, restoration and exploitation objectives. Although almost all conservation targets were achieved, our results highlighted that the proportion of conservation features (i.e., biodiversity, ecosystem services) that would be compromised in the GBl, and the proportion of provisioning services that would be lost due to conservation (i.e., incidental representation) are potentially large, indicating that the probability of conflicts between conservation and exploitation goals in the area is high. The implementation of restoration zones improved connectivity across the GBI, and also achieved European and global policy targets. Our approach may help guide future applications of GBI to implement the flexible conservation management that aquatic environments require, considering many areas at different spatial scales, across multiple ecosystems, and in transboundary contexts. © 2018",,1463-1473,,,652,,Sci.

Sediment samples were collected during the summer and winter of 2005 at the reef base, generally built over beachrock structures. The FORAM index (FI, a foraminiferal functional group, community-based water quality assessment), and the FORAM Stress Index (FSI, which is more related to ecological affinities than to functional groups and assesses sediment or substrata quality) together with geochemical data were interpreted using uni- and multi-variate analysis. This is the first application of FSI outside of Mediterranean waters. The dominance of the Quinqueloculina and Textularia, along with negligible numbers of living specimens, low counts of symbiont-bearing foraminifera (and thus low FI), high turbidity and high phosphorus concentrations confirm the anthropogenic influence of river inputs. All parameters suggest that the water and sediment of the Tamandaré embayment are marginal for coral population settlement, although the FSI, which presents higher values at unpolluted ecosystems, suggests more sustainable conditions during summer than winter, as found for FI. The FI indication of marginal environmental health is not in agreement with the FSI and the currently stable coral population found over the underlying beachrock, especially at the established no-take zone where good conditions have been described. The central transect, influenced by the no-take zone, presents the most favorable sedimentary sector for conservation initiatives, as indicated by foraminifera and other variables, preferentially on the summer season due to low river discharge of sediments. Local scientific- and community-based coral conservation initiatives have improved ecosystem health. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.",,63-73,,,127,,Mar.

Mangroves are part of these areas with fragile biodiversity, and are ecosystems that provide different ecosystem services to animals and humans. Anthropogenic pressures cause a series of losses in ecosystem services, encompassing different land uses and natural soil coverings. These pressures are due to the occupancy distribution of the population and its and patterns and, partly, show the distribution design, urban growth, and planning policies, since the dynamics and speed of the spatial distribution respond to planning policies. When these polices are applied to conservation units, the use of effective systems become even more urgent for environmental monitoring of land use and occupancy patterns. The objective of this work was to evaluate land use and cover patterns in the environmental preservation area (EPA) of the Delta do Parnaíba over the last two decades. Open data from the Mapbiomas project and satellite images were used to generate vegetation spectral indexes. A deforestation area of approximately 64.8 km˛ was found in the Delta do Parnaíba EPA over the last two decades (1999-2019). Areas explored by agribusiness showed an increase of 196.9 km˛ and forest areas showed an increase of 194.4 km˛. The distribution of the patterns was better noticed for aquaculture and urban growth, and their reflectance are essential to distinguish natural and anthropogenic land uses. © 2021, Universidade Federal de Pernambuco.

This task will continue to challenge those who prioritise sustainable development over economic growth. In this report, we discuss two Brazilian case studies of national relevance that urgently require the application of new practices to achieve improved environmental quality and conservation. The first case study involves the middle Rio Doce Lake System (RDLS), which is composed of approximately 300 water bodies with distinct morphometric, physical and chemical features and a range of different land use types. Eighteen lakes (8 within Rio Doce State Park) have been studied since 2000 after the implementation of the Long Term Ecological Research Programme (Brazil-LTER site #4). The aquatic communities studied were highly diverse, with 481 algae species, 346 zooplankton species, 58 families of benthic organisms and approximately 30 fish species (7 of which are exotic). Furthermore, the results of this programme confirm that community dynamics and ecological processes, such as life-history strategies, primary production and decomposition, are determined primarily by the water mixing pattern observed in most of the lakes. The introduction of exotic fishes was responsible for the local extinction of 7 species of native fauna, with cascading events affecting lower trophic levels, resulting in a modified aquatic community structure and diminished water quality. Interviews with local fishermen demonstrated that they understand the environmental impact of exotic species and are willing to participate in management actions, thus promoting cohesion between social and environmental dimensions. Currently, our main challenge is to partner with local fishermen to test new management methods such as selective overfishing that are potentially capable of decreasing or even halting the impacts of exotic species introductions. To disseminate scientific knowledge to the fishing communities, an environmental education (EE) programme has been developed with different social groups (school teachers, students, prefectures’ technical staff and local residents) using participative techniques. This programme has the potential to improve residents’ understanding of regional environmental problems and to help them to develop the critical thinking skills necessary to change opinions, concepts, habits and practices. The second case study involves the use of water in mining activities in Brazil. These mining activities have led to an intense conflict of interest among different environmental, economic and social goals. Assuming that water in itself is a concept with multiple dimensions, it is important to develop cohesion among different goals to achieve sustainability. In short, conservation must evolve from its original “isolate to preserve” approach to the modern “use sustainably to conserve” approach, in which people are the major drivers and users of the resource management process. © 2014, Springer International Publishing Switzerland.",,215-227,,,,,,,,,,,Springer Nature,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Springer.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of native forest and human-modified land covers on the concentrations of chemical elements accumulated in the neotropical pollinator bee T. angustula. Eight landscapes, within an Ecological Corridor in the State of Săo Paulo, Brazil, with gradients of forest cover, spatial heterogeneity and varying land covers were used as sampling unities. Bees collected in traps or through actives searches had the concentration of 21 chemical elements determined by ICP-MS. Results show a beneficial effect of forested areas on the concentrations of some well-known toxic elements accumulated in bees, such as Hg, Cd, and Cr. Multivariate Redundancy Analysis (RDA) suggests road as the most important driver for the levels of Cr, Hg, Sb, Al, U, As, Pb and Pt and bare soil, pasture and urban areas as the landscape covers responsible for the concentrations of Zn, Cd, Mn, Mg, Ba and Sr in bees. The results reinforce the potential use of T. angustula bees as bioindicators of environmental quality and also show that these organisms are being directly affected by human land use, offering potential risks for the Neotropical ecosystem. Our study sheds light on how land covers (native forest and human-modified) can influence the levels of contaminants in insects within human-dominated landscapes. The generation of predictions of the levels of toxic metals and metalloids based on land use can both contribute to friendly farming planning as well as to support public policy development on the surrounding of protected areas and biodiversity conservation hotspots. © 2021",,,,,215,,Ecotoxicol.

In this study, we aimed to identify suitable habitat for multiple CWC taxa off the Brazilian continental margin and compare their environmental niches. Habitat suitability models were developed using the Maxent approach, which allowed for the prediction of species distribution and for the identification of potential 'hot spot' areas that may be important for biodiversity conservation. Ecological niches were determined by a PCA-env approach, and niche similarity and equivalence were evaluated based on niche overlap using the Schoener's D metric. Potentially suitable habitat for Octocorallia covered a broad latitudinal range encompassing nearly the entire Brazilian continental margin, whereas Scleractinia had greater potentially suitable habitat in the Central and Southern areas. Scleractinian species were observed to slightly differ in their environmental niche, with non-reef-forming species being more tolerant to a wider range of environmental conditions in comparison with reef-forming species, inhabiting a wider area of the South American continental margin. Due to the high potential suitability for several CWC species, the Central and Southern parts of the Brazilian continental margin should be considered as potential areas high CWC diversity. Considering the current state of the art and strategic assessment tools, these areas are important targets for conservation, management, and environmental impact assessment.

Tropical estuaries on the borders of semi-arid regions, as the Goiana Estuary (Northeast Brazil), show a strong seasonal pattern determined by rainfall (<50mm in dry season and >400mm in rainy season). Consequently, resources availability in terms of access, quantity and quality, follow the same pattern. Spatial changes along the estuarine ecocline also determine resources exploitation patterns. The estuarine ecocline was divided in different habitats in terms of salinity gradient and position in relation to the main channel. Water parameters were measured along the main channel and stakeholders and forms of use the natural resources were noted into a presence/absence manner. The main estuarine habitats located in the upper, middle and lower estuary (main channel, tidal channel, mangrove forest creeks, mangrove forest, and sand/mud flats) and adjacent coastal waters (sand beaches sea grass meadows and reefs) along this continuum provide different resources and ecological services for the traditional communities inhabiting its margins. More recently, non-traditional stakeholders (sugarcane plantations, aquaculture, dredging for sand and tourism) have also come into play in the use of estuarine resources and services. New land and water uses have strongly influenced changes observed along the estuarine ecosystem. Ecological and social fragility have both increased, threatening biological diversity, fisheries production and the preservation of traditional livelihoods, cultures and values. The continuation of living and non-living resources exploitation in this estuary depends upon managerial actions based on scientific information and stakeholders participation.",,371-375,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: SPEC.

This review examines the contamination of estuaries on the continent with metals, persistent organic pollutants, and solid wastes, as well as their accumulation and transference through the trophic web. Moreover, we emphasize that the damming of rivers, dredging of estuaries, and deforestation of catchments results in alterations to the natural river flow and habitat losses, thus disrupting ecoclinal gradients and impairing the ability of estuarine fauna to move across connected ecosystems. We highlight how the loss in estuarine biodiversity and complexity has diminished biotic resilience and increased the potential for natural ‘disasters. It is also apparent that conservation actions are urgently required before environmental modifications exceed the capacity of estuarine ecosystems to recover from such major perturbations. We document that developing continents with many developing countries, such as South America, require legislation to support a healthy environment, and that more attention needs to be devoted to the social, economic and cultural aspects of traditional communities. We emphasize that plans and actions aimed at estuarine conservation must be based on consistent and statistically testable data that covers natural flow regimes, cycles of environmental contamination, and their influences on estuarine organisms. Environmental protection initiatives for South American estuaries are still in their infancy and steps are required to promote their protection by reducing untreated wastewater disposal, managing exploitation of resources, using stakeholder and co-management approaches, introducing restoration protocols, and improving habitat protection. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,295,,Estuar.

A randomly distributed questionnaire indicated that 94% of fishers believed that without the MIMP, there would be overfishing, dynamite use, destroyed habitats, and few fish. Fishers were more positive about core zones (no-take fishery closures) than general use zones (areas allowing selective fishing) as a consequence of increases in fishing pressure. Those that reported increased catches and sizes of fish since the creation of the MIMP were more likely to agree with present zone locations and more positive in general about fisheries and conservation planning. Most thought that fish size and gear restrictions were preferable to permanent closures. Perceptions differed among communities and gear users. Community and gear type explained 46% of the variance in responses about the perception that fisheries and conservation are compatible goals. Somewhat surprisingly, these effects were more important than catch increases or involvement in MIMP-related activities. The differences in perception between communities may be partly attributed to different fishing histories. Multiple-use zoning provides a means to identify and resolve conflicts and achieve what are likely universal objectives for fisheries sustainability and conservation. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,226-235,,,43,,Mar.

We focus on the South Taranaki Bight (STB) of New Zealand, where upwelling generates productivity and prey to support an important foraging ground for blue whales that overlaps with anthropogenic pressure from industrial activities. We incorporate regional ecological knowledge of upwelling dynamics, physical–biological coupling and associated lags in models to forecast sea surface temperature (SST) and net primary productivity (NPP) with up to 3 weeks lead time. Forecasted environmental layers are then implemented in species distribution models to predict suitable blue whale habitat in the STB. Models were calibrated using data from the austral summers of 2009–2019, and ecological forecast skill was evaluated by predicting to withheld data. Boosted regression tree models skilfully forecasted SST (CV deviance explained = 0.969–0.970) and NPP (CV deviance explained = 0.738–0.824). The subsequent blue whale distribution forecast models had high predictive performance (AUC = 0.889), effectively forecasting suitable habitat on a daily scale with 1–3 weeks lead time. The spatial location and extent of forecasted blue whale habitat were variable, with the proportion of petroleum and mineral permit areas that overlapped with daily suitable habitat ranging from 0% to 70%. Hence, the STB and these forecast models are well-suited for dynamic management that could reduce anthropogenic threats to whales while decreasing regulatory burdens to industry users relative to a traditional static protected area. Synthesis and applications. We develop and test ecological forecast models that predict sea surface temperature, net primary productivity and blue whale suitable habitat up to 3 weeks in the future within New Zealand's South Taranaki Bight region. These forecasts of whale distribution can be effectively applied for dynamic spatial management due to model foundation on quantified links and lags between physical forcing and biological responses. A framework to operationalize these forecasts through a user-driven application is in development to proactively inform conservation management decisions. This framework is implemented through stakeholder engagement, allows flexibility based on management objectives, and is amenable to improvement as new knowledge and feedback are received. © 2021 The Authors.

However, it is often unclear whether they are effective in maintaining their biodiversity values, both absolutely, and also relative to other conservation actions or land uses. Longitudinal population data are critical for determining protected area performance robustly, but such data are rare. As such, there is often insufficient information with which to make adequate, informed decisions for policy and management. Conversely, informally collected data, such as species lists, are common, especially for birds, and they are often the only source of historical data. The aim of this study was to use list data to evaluate the contribution of protected areas to the conservation of endemic birds. Location: Wet Tropics bioregion of Queensland, Australia. Methods: We used a list-length analysis (LLA), a recently developed approach. We estimate trends in species populations with a Bayesian logistic regression to infer bird presence from non-standardized volunteer-collected bird surveys from the New Atlas of Australian Birds that were conducted both inside and outside protected areas. Results: Overall, the prevalence of the majority of wet tropics endemics (18 of 21) has been stable since 1998. Sixteen species were more likely to be found within protected areas, two were more likely to be recorded outside, and three showed little difference. However, there was no difference in trends in prevalence between protected and unprotected areas for all but one endemic species. Main conclusions: Where formal data collection is too expensive or time consuming, it may still be possible to inform decision-making when citizen-collected species list data are available. In the Wet Tropics, our results suggest that for the majority of the species, protected areas may contain better habitat than unprotected areas, but that birds inside protected areas are not significantly better off through time than birds outside protected areas, as long as forest outside protected areas remains intact. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,368-378,,4,21,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,ABUNDANCE; AFRICA; ASSEMBLAGES; Australia; Australian Wet Tropics; Aves; biodiversity; bird; birds; Birds; citizen science; Citizen science; CONSERVATION; conservation evaluation; Conservation evaluation; conservation management; data set; decision making; DECLINES; endemic species; FORESTS; habitat conservation; IMPACT; impact evaluation; Impact evaluation; LANDSCAPE; MANAGEMENT; population structure; protected area; protected areas; Protected areas; Queensland; rare species; species conservation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Currently, the Coral Sea area and its seamounts (north-east Australia) are under review to determine if MPAs are warranted. The protection of sharks at these seamounts should be an integral component of conservation plans. Therefore, knowledge on the spatial ecology of sharks at the Coral Sea seamounts is essential for the appropriate implementation of management and conservation plans. Acoustic telemetry was used to determine residency, site fidelity and spatial use of three shark species at Osprey Reef: whitetip reef sharks Triaenodon obesus, grey reef sharks Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos and silvertip sharks Carcharhinus albimarginatus. Most individuals showed year round residency at Osprey Reef, although five of the 49 individuals tagged moved to the neighbouring Shark Reef (~14 km away) and one grey reef shark completed a round trip of ~250 km to the Great Barrier Reef. Additionally, individuals of white tip and grey reef sharks showed strong site fidelity to the areas they were tagged, and there was low spatial overlap between groups of sharks tagged at different locations. Spatial use at Osprey Reef by adult sharks is generally restricted to the north-west corner. The high residency and limited spatial use of Osprey Reef suggests that reef sharks would be highly vulnerable to targeted fishing pressure and that MPAs incorporating no-take of sharks would be effective in protecting reef shark populations at Osprey and Shark Reef. © 2012 Barnett et al.",,,,5,7,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,animal; animal behavior; Animals; Anthozoa; article; Australia; Carcharhinus albimarginatus; Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos; Carcharhinus springeri; Chondrichthyes; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; coral reef; environmental factor; environmental protection; nonhuman; physiology; shark; Sharks; species conservation; species difference; telemetry; Triaenodon obesus,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

As a tool to achieve this goal, no-take marine reserves may enhance resilience by protecting source populations or reduce it by concentrating fishing in harvested areas. Here, we test whether spatial management with marine reserves can increase ecological resilience compared to non-spatial (conventional) management using a dynamic model of a simplified fish community with structured predation and competition that causes alternative stable states. Relative to non-spatial management, reserves increase the resilience of the desired (predator-dominated) equilibrium state in both stochastic and deterministic environments, especially under intensive fishing. As a result, spatial management also increases the feasibility of restoring degraded (competitor-dominated) systems, particularly if combined with culling of competitors or stock enhancement of adult predators. © 2015 John Wiley & Sons Ltd/CNRS.",,1301-1310,,12,18,,Ecol.

We compare it to two non-protected areas, that is, Okha Beach and Beyt Dwarka, known for their high industrial and tourist activity, respectively. Standing-stock surveys were used to collect primary litter data, while questionnaire surveys were used to learn about people's perception and attitude towards the plastic pollution problem in the study area. We found that plastic was the most common component of the litter at all the sites and that it was primarily of terrestrial origin. Compared to non-protected sites, GOKMPA had the lowest litter density but the highest proportion of plastic litter. Single-use plastic bottles were the most counted items at all the sites, regardless of the conservation status of the sites. The majority of people (locals, visitors, and fishers) around these sites expressed concern about waste but were hesitant to take responsibility and discourage or prevent littering. We noted that designating coastal territories as protected areas helps in reducing plastic pollution while also conserving habitat and biodiversity. However, this could change rapidly due to either mishandling of litter within MPAs or neighboring non-PAs, and also because plastics pose an actual toxicity risk when present even at minimal concentrations in the environment. We recommend combining preventive, mitigating, and curative measures in areas where risk hotspots for plastic litter are identified, and such sites must be constantly monitored. Long-term solutions could include transitioning from a linear to a circular economy, which would involve goals for reducing plastic waste and instituting more sustainable production and consumption patterns. © 2022 The Authors.

A key component to ensuring successful conservation initiatives for the species is understanding their distribution and habitat use, in particular, knowing the nesting sites, migration routes and foraging areas for each genetic stock, and how these might overlap with threats. Aims: Investigate the post-nesting movements of hawksbill sea turtles nesting in the Torres Strait, including migration movements and foraging ground size and distribution. Methods: Nine nesting hawksbill turtles of the north-eastern Australian genetic stock were satellite-tagged between the 2010 and 2019 nesting seasons for 182 ± 143 days (mean ± s.d.). Key results: Three turtles continued to nest on adjacent islands before commencing their post-nesting migrations. From the nine tracked turtles, the following three migration movement strategies were identified: (1) direct migration between the nesting beach and foraging ground, (2) non-direct movements with a period of meandering, and (3) establishment of two foraging areas separated by direct movement pathways. Foraging grounds were distributed across the Torres Strait and north-eastern Australia and varied in size between 0.54 km2 and 3.31 km2 (95% UD). None of the turtles migrated outside of Australian waters. Conclusions: The localisation of these movements and habitats within Australian waters provides a unique conservation opportunity, whereby protection efforts involve multiple life stages and potentially preserve turtles from multiple genetic stocks. The variety of inter-nesting, migration and home range strategies used by the tracked turtles in the present study highlight the broad scope of hawksbill movements. Implications: Our findings are useful for the implementation of future marine conservation areas and shed light into the nesting, migratory and foraging behaviours of hawkbills from this genetic stock. An understanding of the movement tracks and habitats used by a genetic pool is essential for well grounded implementation of conservation areas and management regulations.  © 2021 CSIRO.",,598-608,,7,48,,Wildl.

Hence, MPAs have become the cornerstone of many national and international strategies for decelerating the loss of marine biodiversity. Australia has made strong international commitments to increase its coverage of MPAs through the principles of systematic conservation planning and, in the last 10 years, has rapidly expanded its MPA coverage using these principles. This paper assesses Australia's progress in achieving a key principle of systematic conservation planning-representation-which states that MPAs will include the full range of marine ecosystems. Australia's progress in achieving representation is measured nationally and within seven extensive commonwealth marine regions: the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (rezoned in 2004), the South East Marine Regional Plan (2007), and the South West, North West, North, Temperate East and Coral Sea proposed plans (2011). State marine waters (within 3 nautical miles of the coast) are not considered. Results illustrate that, if the proposed marine plans are followed verbatim, Australia will protect just over 36% of its marine jurisdiction in MPAs and over 13% in ""no-take"" marine reserves. However, except for MPAs in the Great Barrier Reef, and the proposal for the Coral Sea marine park, the existing and proposed MPAs are far from representative. Importantly, only a small portion of the highest protection occurs on the continental shelf where activities potentially harmful to marine biodiversity are concentrated. Despite having a strong and long-standing commitment to the principles of systematic conservation planning, Australia is not achieving the fundamental requirement of representation across most of its marine jurisdiction. We conclude that a failure to set quantitative targets is restricting the achievement of representative marine protection in Australia. Consequently, the 2004 rezoning of the Great Barrier Reef remains a model to emulate, not only in other countries, but in other parts of Australia's marine waters. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,39-48,,,42,,Mar.

Manta rays present a prominent example of such species, the populations of which are declining globally due to directed fishery, by-catch, and other anthropogenic stressors. Our goal was to explore manta ray aggregation sites in the Philippines in order to determine the factors governing the mantas' visits - a knowledge gap essential to understand manta ecology, facilitate ecosystem-based fishery management, and promote sustainable manta-based ecotourism. Diving surveys, environmental conditions assessment, and autonomous cameras were employed to study manta behavior and visit patterns to a cleaning station cluster on a commonly fished seamount, visited by both Mobula birostris and Mobula alfredi. Our findings reveal several environmental conditions (e.g., sea state, moon illumination, and flow) that serve as predictors of manta presence/absence at the site. We suggest that these conditions affect both the behavior of the manta's food (i.e., the spatial distribution of plankton) and the cleaning effectiveness of the cleaner wrasse, which consequently influence manta activity. The findings suggest a trade-off between cleaning and foraging: i.e., mantas tend to visit the cleaning stations when environmental conditions are less favorable for foraging but suitable for effective cleaning; while being absent from the cleaning stations when environmental conditions form plankton aggregations, ideal for efficient feeding. This study sheds light on manta behavior and habitat use on dynamic, small spatio-temporal scales (i.e., hundreds of meters to a few kilometers, hours to days). The acquired data may be applied in the planning of marine protected areas and in fishery management (e.g., to reduce the chances of manta bycatch by limiting fishing activities to periods of manta absence) as well as contribute to enhancing sustainable exploitation, such as ecotourism, by increasing the chances of diving encounters with manta rays. © 2019 Barr and Abelson.",,,,MAR,6,,Front.

Results: We detect refugia in Tanzania and coastal Kenya previously identified as CFEA centres of endemism but also new areas (lowland Tanga region and Pangani river, Zaraninge forest, Mafia island, Matumbi hills). Results show that refugia for amphibians (high PE) are located in areas with long-term Quaternary climate stability and benign current climate (high precipitation of driest quarter, high annual precipitation), with climatically unstable areas demonstrating low PE. Conservation analyses revealed that ten PE hotspots account for over 25% of the total PE, but only small parts of these areas are under conservation protection. Main Conclusions: Utilizing cryptic diversity from novel phylogeographic data and distribution modelling improves our understanding of endemism patterns, with climate stability being strongly correlated with the distribution of PE. Our analyses point towards high PE areas being refugia, which require an urgent need to consolidate protected areas within centres of endemism in this highly threatened biodiversity hotspot. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,875-887,,8,23,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,Amphibia; amphibian; amphibians; ANURA HYPEROLIIDAE; ARC MOUNTAINS; biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; BIOGEOGRAPHY; bioindicator; BIOLOGICAL IMPORTANCE; climate conditions; CLIMATE-CHANGE; conservation genetics; correlation; cryptic diversity; East Africa; ecological modeling; endemism; environmental factor; forest ecosystem; Kenya; MODELS; niche; niche models; PATTERNS; PERSISTENCE; phylogenetics; phylogeography; PHYLOGEOGRAPHY; protected area; refugia; refugium; spatial analysis; spatial data; spatial distribution; spatial phylogenetics; species conservation; Tanzania,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Porites lobata is the most abundant hermatypic coral species currently in El Salvador and has experienced recent bleaching events at natural protected area Complejo Los Cóbanos. Objective: To describe the bleaching episodes that colonies of P. lobata experienced at Los Cóbanos, El Salvador, during the last 18 years, and analyze coral restoration efforts. Methods: Approximately 2 100 images (2006 – 2022) taken without specific periodicity from two sites were reviewed. Water parameters since 2014 were registered without defined frequency. The areas sampled were El Faro beach and subtidal colonies near an important beach resort. The first area presented dispersed colonies on an intertidal zone, the other, larger colonies at 2 m deep in low tide. Also, literature about activities to restore reefs within the country was reviewed. Results: Several bleaching events occurred during this observation period. Some of them could be associated to high sea water temperatures (> 30o C) from May to October (rainy season), others to harmful algae blooms, as well as unknown causes. Severe bleaching that caused loss of coral coverage on intertidal colonies occurred during the global event (2015-2016). Conclusion: Bleaching at Los Cóbanos occurs in different intensity patterns usually during the rainy season that encompasses high temperature and turbidity levels in water, as well as algal blooms. The 2015-2016 episode caused coral coverage loss on the intertidal colonies and subtidal ones experienced little permanent damages (< 5% mortality). National restoration policies for coral colonies require more strategic efforts considering the local littoral hydrodynamics and institutional capabilities. © 2023, Universidad de Costa Rica.

In addition, Rio Grande do Norte has few conservation units in which there is no systematic study on bat fauna. The Nísia Floresta National Forest (NFNF), a federally protected area of 174 hectares, is located in the eastern coast of Rio Grande do Norte and corresponds to one of the last remnants of Atlantic Forest in the state, in its northernmost limits. A bat inventory was conducted in NFNF using mist nets set at ground level, from sunset to sunrise, from December 2011 to December 2012, totaling 25 sampling nights. We captured 1,379 bats belonging to four families and 16 species. Artibeus planirostris (Phyllostomidae) was the most frequently captured species (n = 685; 50%), followed by Myotis lavali (Vespertilionidae) (n = 248; 18%) and Phyllostomus discolor (Phyllostomidae) (n = 147; 11%). Peropteryx leucoptera, Phyllostomus discolor, Phyllostomus hastatus, Lophostoma brasiliense, Lasiurus blossevillii, Myotis lavali, and Promops nasutus are new records for Rio Grande do Norte, increasing the current number of bat species from 25 to 32 in this state.

Fire plays an important role in the landscape changes that have been occurring in this transition. Thus, the objectives of this study were (i) evaluate the accuracy of different algorithms/techniques in predicting fires in the CAT; (ii) investigate the season of highest fire probabilities in the CAT; and (iii) identify, among anthropic, climatic, topographic and soil variables, the main drivers of fires spatial distribution in the CAT. Fire occurrence data (active fire pixels) from the MODIS sensor were used as input data in species distribution models. The SDM allowed the construction of monthly fire probability models for the study area. The model's quality was assessed by R-squared, RMSE, AUC and TSS metrics. In addition, we assessed the weight of variables in building the models. To obtain the fire seasonality, we used the bootstrap technique to calculate the 95% confidence interval (CI) about the mean. As result, we found that all algorithms obtained satisfactory performance, as well as the ensemble model technique used, which obtained an average AUC of 0.812 ± 0.001. The algorithm with the best individual performance was Random Forest, with a mean AUC 0.851 ± 0.002. Similar patterns were found when considering TSS metrics. The predicted and observed fire occurrences showed strong association (R2 = 0.81). The high fire probability area was higher during the dry season (15304.37 ± 41.65), showing a significant difference (p-value ? 0.05) from the rainy season. The variables that most explained the fire occurrences along the CAT were 'Silt Fraction', 'Distance from Agriculture' and 'Maximum Temperature'. In addition, ‘Distance from Roads’, ‘Distance from Protected Areas’ and Elevation’ were relevant for the monthly models. Anthropogenic variables were more important during the dry season. The results demonstrate that SDMs can be adequately used in fire prediction. Protected areas have shown an important role in acting as a fire barrier. However, many of these areas are vulnerable, surrounded by high fire probabilities during the dry season, predominantly anthropic, putting the natural dynamics of fire in the region and the local biodiversity at risk. Our approach can be useful in environmental protection and monitoring, in addition to facilitating the understanding about the CAT ecological complexity and the high anthropogenic pressure happening there. © 2022 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,520,,For.

Community conserved areas that are periodically harvested are increasingly being implemented as fisheries management tools, but few researchers have empirically compared them with permanently closed reserves. We used a hierarchal control-impact experimental design to compare the abundance and biomass of reef fishes, invertebrates, and substrate composition in periodically harvested and permanent reserves and in openly fished (control sites) of the South Pacific island country of Vanuatu. Fished species had significantly higher biomass in periodically harvested reserves than in adjacent openly fished areas. We did not detect differences in substratum composition between permanent reserves and openly fished areas or between permanent reserves and periodically harvested reserves. Giant clams (tridacnids) and top shells (Trochus niloticus) were vulnerable to periodic harvest, and we suggest that for adequate management of these species, periodically harvested community conservation areas be used in conjunction with other management strategies. Periodic harvest within reserves is an example of adaptive and flexible management that may meet conservation goals and that is suited to the social, economic, and cultural contexts of many coastal communities in the developing world. © 2009 Society for Conservation Biology.",,1475-1484,,6,23,,Conserv.

This analytical framework allowed to integrate multiple sources of information, including fisheries-dependent and fisheries-independent data, collected at different scales and aggregation levels. The model includes the two main fisheries targeting hake in the area, the trawl and the gillnet fisheries, and account for differences in their selectivity and effort. Alternative models were used for testing different assumptions on recruitment and growth. The model is then used to predict the main trajectory of the stock during the next years and to evaluate the potential effects of implementing closed areas management scenarios in the hake nurseries as a specific tool to reduce fishing mortality on recruits. The modelling framework presented performed successfully also in a commercial landing data limited context, common for the Mediterranean. Our results provide statistical support for fast growth and multiple recruitment events assumptions. Including both these key features represent an unprecedented improvement of modelling hake population dynamics in the Mediterranean. We found that the reduction in the fishing effort that characterized the fisheries in the study area during the last few years, coupled with fast recovery abilities of the hake stock, has the potentiality to allow a moderate increase of the stock during the next years. Interestingly, our simulations show that the positive effects which might be expected from protecting hake nursery grounds are only marginally related to a reduction in hake recruits fishing mortality. Although our model relies on assumptions and surely represents an over-simplification of the real world, it still contributed to improve our understanding of the temporal dynamics of one of the most valuable fish stocks in the central Mediterranean. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.",,75-83,,01-Mar,107,,Fish.

In this way, we further aim to describe patterns of species incidence and compositional turnover to expand upon the body of knowledge related to understanding biodiversity patterns and processes. We explored species turnover of dragonflies and damselflies separately, using zeta diversity to measure compositional turnover among multiple assemblages. Narrow-ranged and widespread species within each suborder showed similar drivers. Specifically, both narrow-ranged and widespread dragonflies show rapid turnover with small shifts in annual mean temperature, temperature seasonality and annual precipitation, whereas for damselflies, the major driver for turnover is distance between sites followed by climatic variables. Our results therefore show that odonate turnover is largely driven by climate, although the limited dispersal capabilities of damselflies also influences community assembly. Climate change could cause major changes in composition of odonates, presenting a challenge for conservation planning in Africa as species assemblages that were previously conserved may no longer be protected if their ranges shift outside protected areas. For damselflies, adaptation is a major concern, and with their limited dispersal capabilities and climate sensitivity, they may not be able to migrate effectively in response to changing climate conditions. The underlying assembly processes do not differ considerably for narrow-ranged and widespread species within each suborder, suggesting that conservation planning tailored to each suborder may be sufficient in Africa. © 2024 The Authors.

Therefore, a multispecies approach to designing and monitoring reserve networks is necessary. To gain insight into how the interactions between species in marine communities may affect reserve design, we synthesize marine reserve community models and community models with habitat destruction and fragmentation, and we develop new extensions of existing models. This synthesis highlights the potential for species interactions to alter reserve design criteria; in particular, accounting for species interactions often leads to an increase in reserve size necessary to protect populations. Accounting for species interactions also indicates the need to base reserve design and monitoring on a variety of species, especially long-distance dispersers, inferior colonizers, and specialists. Finally, the new model extensions highlight how, given dispersal, source populations outside reserves as well as increases in fished populations after reserve establishment may negatively affect reserve populations of competitors or prey. Therefore, multispecies harvest dynamics outside reserves and before reserve establishment are critical to determining the appropriate reserve size, spacing, and expectations after establishment. These models highlight the importance of species interactions to reserve design and provide guidelines for how this complexity can begin to be incorporated into conservation planning. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

We theoretically explore this possibility through two cases: (1) marine systems in which reduced predation and/or increased feeding drive the evolution of planktonic larval duration and (2) more generally, where stochasticity in reproductive yield drives the evolution of the proportion of offspring dispersing. Model results indicate that habitat fragmentation generally shifts selection pressure toward reduced dispersal, particularly when areas outside reserves are uninhabitable. However, shifts to increased dispersal may occur when temporal heterogeneity is the primary selective force and constant-quota harvest occurs outside reserves. In addition, model results suggest the potential for changes in the genetic variability in dispersal after habitat fragmentation. The predicted evolutionary changes in dispersal will depend on factors such as the relative genetic and environmental contributions to dispersal-related traits and the extent of anthropogenic impacts outside reserves. If the predicted evolutionary changes are biologically attainable, they may suggest altering current guidelines for the appropriate size and spacing of marine reserves necessary to achieve conservation and fisheries goals. © 2007 by The University of Chicago.",,59-78,,1,170,,Am.

The site shelter important biodiversity features, and is classified as protected areas. The project aims at integrating the conservation of these sensitive areas with local, sustainable development by encouraging dialogue and planning at local, regional and national levels. The projects create a space for dialogue and planning through the animation of working groups and a local steering committee for the relevant stakeholders (e.g. local communities, local non-governmental organisations, private businesses, and administration). The outcome of these working groups will be formalized with a signed moral contract called ""Contrat de l'Espace Littoral"" by all the relevant stakeholders. The contract will summarize a common vision for their territory and make recommendations for coastal management. Alternative economical micro-actions, aiming at improving community livelihoods, are also developed in the site. Additionally, the project has provided training and technical assistance to monitor changes in the coastal zone, setting up social, economical and ecological indicators. Additional studies were implemented to determine the causes and consequences of the key risks. The studies contribute to creation of future scenarios that will be necessary for the ""Moral Contract"" and Management Plan. Interdisciplinary working groups were formed around key themes including: pollution, natural resources, income generating activities, etc. Using the information from the studies, the working groups laid out a management framework for each theme. Training and experience sharing is an important element of this project. The different local, regional and national stakeholders have taken part in trainings on conflict resolution, sustainable tourism, income generating activities, monitoring and indicators, and Geographic information Systems. Awareness campaigns have also been carried out at all levels promoting the sustainable development of the coast. The moral Contract is the primary of the project and the key for the projects sustainability.

While immunization coverage has risen dramatically, recent surveys have raised serious questions regarding vaccine potency at the service delivery level. Operational practices in vaccine distribution and in the delivery system have been identified in this paper. The international and national standards for vaccine management are described along with the main requirements for maintaining vaccine potency. Quality assurance measures, the responsible personnel and the appropriate intervention points are detailed, along with easily applied guidelines for implementation. An approach to assessing the effectiveness of the quality assurance measures is proposed.; Although Papua New Guinea agreed to reach 90% immunization of children under one year of age, this country and 5 others were unable to reach the coverage target. A survey of facilities was conducted, and analysis revealed serious systems failures and operational problems. Consequently, large numbers of children were receiving ineffective vaccines. When immunization coverage is low, disease is transmitted to those without coverage. For example, a failure of a single dose of the diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus (DPT) or oral polio vaccine results in only partial protection and the ability to transmit the diseases purportedly covered. There is great waste of effort and work, money, health worker time, facilities use, and equipment and vaccines, when inadequate coverage is achieved. Improvements are needed in assuring vaccine potency, adequate distribution, maintenance of the cold chain, and transportation of vaccine supplies. The causes of vaccine damage include the distribution chain of international supplies, vaccine temperatures by type of vaccine, vaccine conditions, vaccine storage conditions, storage risk factors, kerosene refrigerator conditions, sanitary immunization practices, and quality assurance points in the distribution chain. There were situations where boxes were supposed to be lined with frozen ice packs, but there were inadequate numbers of ice packs; road transport time with packs should be 1 day or less, when in fact it took 1-2 days, and air shipments could take a week. Placement in refrigerators may mean warming on one shelf and freezing on another shelf. When mobile teams transported vaccines to rural areas, the carrying boxes were insufficiently packed for transport longer than 1 day. Recommended measures were procurement of appropriate vaccines and equipment, development of guidelines, instructions and supervision, and provision of training. Area medical stores need to perform quality assurance when vaccines arrive, are being unpacked, or are in storage before shipment to another location.",,141-157,,2,36,,P N G Med J,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"apparatus, equipment and supplies; article; child; Child; Data Aggregation; Delivery Of Health Care; Developing Countries; developing country; drug stability; Drug Stability; drug storage; Drug Storage; Economic Factors; Equipment And Supplies; health; Health; health care delivery; health care quality; Health Services Evaluation; human; Humans; immunization; Immunization; infant; Infant; Melanesia; methodology; National Health Programs; Needs; Obstacles; Oceania; Organization And Administration; organization and management; Pacific islands; Papua New Guinea; Program Evaluation; Programs; public health; Public Health Administration; public health service; Quality Assurance, Health Care; quality control; Quality Control; Quality Of Health Care; Research Methodology; standard; Summary Report; traffic and transport; Transportation; vaccination; Vaccination; vaccine; Vaccines",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A no-trawl area is examined as a strategy to foster recovery of the local marine ecosystems and economies, and to meet international conservation targets and EU legal mandates. Based on a review of published studies documenting the positive outcomes of previous trawling bans in other regions, and of current initiatives and opportunities within the Mediterranean region, it is concluded that large-scale protection of the Adriatic with a no-trawl zone is a promising and feasible approach for reversing ecological and socioeconomic losses in this basin. In particular, ecosystem protection can be established in the Mediterranean through a proposal for a Fisheries Restricted Area (FRA) to the general Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM). The successful establishment and function of a FRA or LMPA will depend on its support by the governments of the surrounding countries, as well as involvement and participation of key user groups. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.",,165-177,,,68,,Mar.

Despite the importance of, and threats to, inland water, global assessments of protected area (PA) coverage and trends have focused on land habitats or have assessed land and inland waters together. We here provide the first assessment of the level of protection of inland open surface waters and their trends (1984–2015) within PAs for all countries, using a globally consistent, high-resolution (30 m) and validated dataset on permanent and seasonal surface waters based on Landsat images. Globally, 15% of inland surface waters are covered by PAs with mapped boundaries. Estimated inland water protection increases to 16.4% if PAs with reported area but delineated only as points are included as circular buffers. These coverage estimates slightly exceed the comparable figure for land but fall below the 17% goal of the Convention on Biological Diversity’s Aichi Target 11 for 2020. Protection levels are very uneven across countries, half of which do not yet meet the 17% target. The lowest coverage of surface water by PAs (<5%) was found in Africa and in parts of Asia. There was a global trend of permanent water losses and seasonal water gains within PAs, concomitant with an increase of both water types outside PAs. In 38% of countries, PAs lost over 5% of permanent water. Global protection targets for inland waters may well be met by 2020, but much stronger efforts are required to ensure their effective conservation, which will depend not only on sound PA governance and management but also on the sustainable use of water resources outside PAs. Given the pressures on water in a rapidly changing world, integrated management planning of water resources involving multiple sectors and entire basins is therefore necessary. © 2019 Bastin et al.

Ecosystem Based Management (EBM) approaches can support policymakers dealing with physical, chemical, and biological stresses caused by high-risk water pollution (HRWP) and sudden-accidental pollution (SAP). The objective of this study is to evaluate how alarming HRWP pressures might become in fragile marine, coastal, estuarine, and freshwater socio-ecological systems (MCEF-SES) surrounded by heavily industrialized and urbanized areas. To this end a spatially explicit analysis, using the InVEST-Habitat Risk Assessment (InVEST-HRA) model in combination with expert judgement from researchers from various fields, is performed. An application is provided for the case of the Ria de Aveiro (RdA) coastal lagoon in Portugal. Results show high spatial variance of HRWP hazards across RdA, with one major multi-layer risk hotspot at the center of the research area and a second patch of multiple risk hotspots towards the North of RdA. Salines emerge as the most threatened habitat followed by Intertidal flats and Saltmarshes. The most significant water pollution risk sources contributing to Salines cumulative risk are Fossil fuel processing, storage and sale units, Industrial units, Aquaculture, and the Marinas. Industries involving dangerous substances in the region threaten primarily Watercourses. This study confirms the InVEST-HRA model in combination with expert judgement is a transparent and easily replicable approach to build ES-based knowledge about habitat risks threatening MCEF-SES in a Natura 2000 site heavily pressured by HRWP hazards. After further valuation analysis, pondering gains and losses from regional development and environmental protection, this knowledge can support the planning and management of coastal areas and the prioritization of pollution abatement interventions. In particular, by estimating the loss that HRWP causes in the value of ecosystem services, defining HRWP abatement policies, assessing the effectiveness, costs and benefits of those abatement policies and, ultimately, evaluating the results for the well-being of local communities through global efficiency analysis, cost-benefit analysis or cost-effectiveness analysis. Hence, it bridges the gap between an informed EBM and the development policies of fragile regions. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,76,,Ecol.

Human activities were mapped based on LEK. Qualitative abundance and distribution data was obtained for 22 species. SCRI highlighted some high-risk areas due to overlap of areas of frequent occurrence of elasmobranchs with potential high impact activities (e.g. longline fishery). This study highlighted the potential of multi-method approaches to estimate the distribution of rare, highly mobile species in data-limited contexts, and assess their exposure to human activities.

These multiple objectives are hard to achieve simultaneously as sustainable development implies the balance between the specific interests of conservation and economical activities. MPA success, namely for fisheries management, entails the implementation of restrictive measures that in a short-time frame may have negative effects on local fishermen communities. It is extremely important to evaluate their performance and effectiveness aiming at a quasi-optimal management, minimizing potential impacts on the social domain. In this study, a methodology for assessing the effectiveness of MPA as a small-scale fisheries management tool was developed, based on a set of indicators grouped in four dimensions (ecological, economic, social and management and governance). The indicators were scored individually according to an original score scale of five values and a median score was calculated for every dimension. Finally, the median overall score was calculated including the scores of the four dimensions. The scores were attributed for two distinct periods: before and after MPA implementation, in order to evaluate the performance of MPA. This methodology can be applied even with few scientific data available and taking into account experts and stakeholders' judgements. The Arrábida MPA (Portugal) was used as a case study and it was found that with the implementation of the MPA social and economical aspects were impaired (median scores decreased near one value for the period after MPA implementation), while the other two dimensions showed an improvement trend. Thus, the overall score was the same before and after MPA implementation, an intermediate scale score. Results from the application of this method can give important indications about the state of an MPA and evaluate if the initial goals are being achieved through the implemented measures. The method is of easy communication and can be a useful tool for decision making and fisheries management processes. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,137-147,,2,54,,Ocean Coast.

Yet, even if recently the number of MPAs has increased rapidly worldwide, the area of ocean under some type of MPA classification is far behind the international targets (e.g. Convention on Biological Diversity) considered essential for conservation of the world's oceans. Furthermore, coherence, representativeness and effectiveness of existing MPAs are largely unknown or even weakly defined. In this study, general characteristics of MPAs from Portugal, Spain and France were collected and used to evaluate conservation progress in this geographic area. In addition, an online questionnaire was administered to the MPAs managers, and focused on multiple processes inherent to each MPA, namely on the characteristics and suitability of planning, management, monitoring, governance and enforcement. Obtained responses were used to calculate the overall level of MPA management effectiveness, and multivariate analyses were used to identify the factors that most contributed to differences in effectiveness. Most MPAs are adjacent to the coast, are small in area (near 50% have less than 20 km2) and were established with multiple goals concerning species conservation and sustainable development of economic activities (e.g. fisheries). Only 9% of analysed MPAs are larger than 1000 km2 and are unequally distributed among the study area. Overall, 46% of MPAs and 59% of total area covered were established during the last five years, while only 3 of the 35 no-take areas (22% in area) were implemented during this period. High MPA effectiveness (i.e. the extent to which an MPA is protecting values and achieving its goals and objectives) was related with high levels of stakeholders support, with suitable goals, management and enforcement. Results highlighted the need to improve MPA coverage taking into account other existing MPAs to increase coherence and representativeness of networks, that new no-take areas should be implemented in key conservation sites and that management strategies (e.g. enforcement and monitoring) should be strengthened. These findings are applicable to the study area yet methodology and outcomes are pertinent to MPA management worldwide. Ultimately, strategies aiming at maximizing MPA performance are probably as important as the increase of MPA coverage. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,15-23,,,132,,Ocean Coast.

Increases in density, size and biomass of organisms within protected areas have often been found. However, their worldwide effectiveness is compromised by the interaction of several factors, such as inadequate conduction of processes (e.g. due to political reasons) and the common lack of appropriate scientific datasets to support planning and management decisions. This study proposes a framework for assessing the potential effectiveness of an already implemented MPA and identifying major gaps. The framework is based on three components: species-habitat association, species' life history and functional groups and pressures affecting the MPA. The potential of the MPA to support the lifecycle of fish species was assessed in order to identify effective management actions. The theoretical framework was applied to Arrábida MPA (Portugal) in order to exemplify its practical results. Arrábida MPA showed potential to support the lifecycle of most species, although some key life phases (spawning and nursery) are not efficiently protected by the actual limits/level of protection of the MPA, namely for some of the most important fisheries' target species. This framework is particularly useful as an alternative or a complementary support to early decisions for MPA management and the identification of priority actions needed to ensure the accomplishment of initial objectives or the suitability of their adaptation. This approach can be implemented in MPA worldwide, although the accuracy of results will be closely related with the quality of input data. The present framework can contribute to improve the effectiveness of global MPA networks and to fulfill international conservation targets, such as OSPAR, Convention for Biological Diversity and European Natura 2000 network. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,75-87,,,118,,Ocean Coast.

Simultaneously achieving these multiple goals is difficult due to conflicts between conservation (often long-term) and economic (often short-term) objectives. MPA implementation often includes additional control measures on fisheries (e.g. vessel size restrictions, gear exclusion, catch controls) that in the short-term may have impacts on local fishers' communities. Thus, monitoring fisheries catches before, during and after MPA implementation is essential to document changes in fisheries activities and to evaluate the impact of MPAs in fishers' communities. Remarkably, in contrast with standard fisheries-independent biological surveys, these data are rarely measured at appropriate spatial scales following MPA implementation. Here, the effects of MPA implementation on local fisheries are assessed in a temperate MPA (Arrábida Marine Park, Portugal), using fisheries monitoring methods combining spatial distribution of fishing effort, on-board observations and official landings statistics at scales appropriate to the Marine Park. Fisheries spatial distribution, fishing effort, on-board data collection and official landings registered for the same vessels over time were analysed between 2004 and 2010. The applicability and reliability of using landings statistics alone was tested (i.e. when no sampling data are available) and we conclude that landings data alone only allow the identification of general patterns. The combination of landings information (which is known to be unreliable in many coastal communities) with other methods, provides an effective tool to evaluate fisheries dynamics in response to MPA implementation. As resources for monitoring socio-ecological responses to MPAs are frequently scarce, the use of landings data calibrated with fisheries information (from vessels, gear distribution and on-board data) is a valuable tool applicable to many worldwide coastal small-scale fisheries. © 2015 Elsevier B.V.",,197-208,,,172,,Fish.

Social norms and social networks are bottom-up processes through which resource users self-organize to solve collective action problems. When formal institutions (e.g., regulations) build on these processes they are more likely to be effective and equitable. This research elicits social norms and maps an information-sharing social network (n = 81) in three small-scale fishing communities located near the Asinara MPA in Sardinia, Italy. Findings indicate that these communities are not grouped under one social network, but rather are split into three subgroups, which may at first suggest limited capacity for collective action given the apparent lack of social cohesion. Nevertheless, analyses on the distribution and strength of social norms denote that cooperative behaviours are still strong within the Asinara communities. Importantly, the second part of the analyses revealed the presence of central resource users, within each subgroup, who could act as bridges between the heterogeneous knowledge systems, ideas, and practices that have developed separately in each subgroup. Leveraging this diversity can generate new solutions to common challenges and further enhance collective action capacity for the whole Asinara social network. Understanding the social dimension of MPAs can enhance both the effectiveness and equity of governance and management arrangements (e.g., Target 3 of the Kunming-Montreal Global Diversity Framework) by highlighting areas where collective action is strong, enabling regulations to build on these existing processes, and by developing strategies to provide additional support where collective action is lacking. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,173,,Mar.

Following a theatrical approach to conservation, this story unfolds in three acts (Act I: The Premises; II: On the Field; III: Long-Term Effects) that include the social targets (‘actors’) involved (i.e., the pop star’s staff, ONG, institutions, and local stakeholders) as well as the critical issues and conflicts. This experience provides some conservation lessons: (i) big musical events can have an impact on sensitive socio-ecosystems; (ii) the intrinsic value of coastal ecosystems has been underestimated since the site selection was carried out by decision makers with inaccurate/inappropriate use of digital tools; (iii) communication among the private organizers, public institutions, ONG, and people was poor; (iv) the availability of huge economic resources has made the local municipality vulnerable; (v) digital social processes increased polarization between opposing parties with an increase in local conflicts among Public Agencies; and (vi) these conflicts had long-term cascade effects on the nature reserve’s management. To communicate conservation stories, I encourage conservation practitioners to use a theatrical approach to communicate local events with socio-ecological implications—increasing awareness of human–wildlife conflicts and cognitive bias emerging after unshared decisions—using simplified conceptual frameworks. © 2023 by the author.",,87-95,,1,3,,Conservation,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,BIODIVERSITY; cognitive bias; digital devices; DUNES; embryonic shifting dunes; FRAMEWORK; MANAGEMENT; plover birds; SCIENCE; social haters; STORIES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The projected change in disturbance regimes is expected to alter the provision of ecosystem services and affect biodiversity. Both are critical for forest ecosystems to provide livelihoods for human societies. Forest management after natural disturbances shapes successional pathways of forest ecosystems. Therefore, the management of post-disturbance sites deserves critical attention to avoid negative effects of management interventions on ecosystem services and biodiversity. The two most common management interventions after natural disturbances are salvage logging (comparator: no salvage logging) and tree planting (comparator: natural regeneration). This planned systematic map of reviews aims to aggregate the existing evidence syntheses on the implications of common forest management interventions after natural disturbances on successional trajectories with regard to selected ecosystem services and biodiversity. Evidence-based post-disturbance management is highly relevant for protected area management as well as for the management of commercial forests. Methods: We will systematically search the databases Scopus, Web of Science Core Collection and the Forest Science Collection of the CABI Digital Library for reviews and meta-analyses (after 2003). We will apply eligibility criteria for review selection and assess the evidence synthesis validity of selected reviews using the most recent version of CEESAT (Collaboration for Environmental Evidence Synthesis Assessment Tool).

The knowledge of the species present in a natural protected area provides indispensable information to valorate it correctly and to plan its management. The private natural reserve El Morejon is located in Campana Department, Buenos Aires province, and 340 ha are protected, with natural and semi-natural environments in Pampas ecoregion. The reserve has several artificial lagoons, two water courses that go across it, grasslands, flood plains, sedges and forest relicts. The objective of this work was to compile an inventory of the biodiversity of vertebrates registered in the reserve over eight years of periodic surveys. A total of 243 vertebrate species were recorded: 61 fishes, 150 birds, 11 mammals, 10 reptiles and 11 amphibians. Representative species of the environments protected in the reserve were recorded, as well as threatened species such as the Long-winged Harrier (Circus buffoni), the capybara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris) and the D'Orbigny's turtle (Trachemys dorbigni). The recorded biodiversity over the years turned out to be much higher than expected and these surveys allowed us to conclude that this anthropic wetlands can host numerous communities, being areas of breeding, refuge and migratory scale of fauna. In spite of the surface, proximity to urbanizations and the industrial activities that take place in the reserve surroundings, the contribution of voluntary conservation is important for their protection, especially in ecoregions scarcely represented in the federal system of protected areas. © Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales Bernardino Rivadavia.",,195-215,,2,21,,Rev.

Taking the strength of wellbeing aspirations as point of departure, we focus on two themes: the implications of MPA embeddedness in wider societal systems, and the consequences of natural and social variety for governance. We conclude first of all that conflict resolution depends on MPA authorities' willingness to engage with the interferences that emerge from outside the MPA area. Secondly, we point out the varying wellbeing aspirations of the population and the need to develop governance partnerships. The latter are argued to contribute to more balanced decision making, as well as to a greater appreciation among the target population of the 'fairness' of MPA policy. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,593-602,,4,47,,Environ.

This form of integration often causes trade offs between governability (interdimensional), resulting in one of the systems more likely to have a more prominent role than other systems. This condition is often overlooked in the current management activities. Harmonization between dimensions of governance is done to synergize the roles of each dimension's attributes to achieve good governance in reaching the objectives of the management. In a hybrid pattern (an integration between governance system and systems to be governed), the interactive governance process could be achieved through an adaptive and responsive management, and monitoring and evaluation, as well as regulatory aspects and involvement of the stakeholders as prime movers of the processes in all phases of management. This is especially important for areas without explicit customary marine management traditions where the emergent nonformal institutional set-up needs to fill a particularly large void in the nonformal adaptive core within the formal MPA framework governance. In this context, even effective rules which achieve undesirable outcomes need to be examined for underlying rationales and incentives. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,278,,,,,,,,Institute of Physics Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

Document analyses and qualitative interviews have been undertaken with key actors and documents in two case areas to show how actors, knowledge, and financial and organisational capacities are introduced in the planning processes in order to contest the dominating environmental discourse established by environmental authorities. The results demonstrate how opponents to the terrestrial case were rather fragmented, consisting of a wide range of local and regional actors with various interests and agendas, and without substantial financial and organisational strength. Here, the environmental administration managed to create a partnership with local authorities that eventually proclaimed the national park as a win-win situation for local society. As a contrast, the opponents to the marine case had strong organisational, financial and even scientific capacities that were effectively unified with local authorities in the Skjerstad fjord. Here, the win-win situation was not accepted by the local parties.

The Falkland Islands are a globally significant site for colonial breeding marine higher predators (i.e., seabirds and pinnipeds). However, overlap between marine predators and Falkland Islands proposed Marine Managed Areas (MMAs) has not been quantified. Hence, to provide information required to make informed decisions regarding the implementation of proposed MMAs, our aims were to objectively assess how the proposed MMA network overlaps with contemporary estimates of marine predator distribution. We collated tracking data (1999–2019) and used a combination of kernel density estimation and model-based predictions of spatial usage to quantify overlap between colonial breeding marine predators and proposed Falkland Islands MMAs. We also identified potential IUCN Key Biodiversity Areas (pKBAs) using (1) kernel density based methods originally designed to identify Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas (IBAs) and (2) habitat preference models. The proposed inshore MMA, which extends three nautical miles from the Falkland Islands, overlapped extensively with areas used by colonial breeding marine predators. This reflects breeding colonies being distributed throughout the Falklands archipelago, and use being high adjacent to colonies due to central-place foraging constraints. Up to 45% of pKBAs identified via kernel density estimation were located within the proposed MMAs. In particular, the proposed Jason Islands Group MMA overlapped with pKBAs for three marine predator species, suggesting it is a KBA hot spot. However, tracking data coverage was incomplete, which biased pKBAs identified using kernel density methods, to colonies tracked. Moreover, delineation of pKBA boundaries were sensitive to the choice of smoothing parameter used in kernel density estimation. Delineation based on habitat model predictions for both sampled and unsampled colonies provided less biased estimates, and revealed 72% of the Falkland Islands Conservation Zone was likely a KBA. However, it may not be practical to consider such a large area for fixed-boundary management. In the context of wide-ranging marine predators, emerging approaches such as dynamic ocean management could complement static management frameworks such as MMAs, and provide protection at relevant spatiotemporal scales. © 2021 by the Ecological Society of America",,,,8,31,,Ecol.

Northwest samples reported higher average microplastic concentrations than samples collected in the southeastern part of the coastal lagoon, likely due to the extensive use of sludge from wastewater treatment plants besides the fragmentation of low density polyethylene from plastic greenhouses, being microplastic films also higher for northwest than for southeast samples. Moreover, large inter-site differences observed in microplastic concentrations also demonstrated that local activities, mainly tourism and fishery, may play an important role as microplastic sources. The extensive amount of 17 different polymer types identified in this paper, much higher than most reported in similar studies, together with the variety of colors of microplastics most of them in a fragmented form (59.4%) and mainly detected in urban beaches, should be related to the geographical situation of this coastal lagoon, together with enormous environmental passives accumulated over the past 50 years. Only polyvinyl ester resins proved to be statistically higher in non-protected than in protected zones, probably related to their use in manufacturing boat hulls, although sources and pathways for microplastics are always difficult to assess. Measures to avoid microplastic pollution should be taken through educational programs, with also a clear commitment from plastic producers and transformers. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,1357-1366,,,252,,Environ.

Its complete lack of any natural connection with oceans makes it a very special ecosystem, and as such particularly vulnerable to external forces, such as climatic conditions or man-made changes to inflow. Caspian Sea Fluctuations are periodic which are caused by various natural factors. The factors behind the changes in the level of the Caspian are still the focus of debate. Scientists have not ruled out the involvement of tectonic or geomorphologic causes. However these would appear to have a minor impact in comparison to changing climate factors, combined with the effects of human management of surface in the Caspian basin In the situation of Caspian Sea level decrease, marine costal constructions become unutilized and in case of Caspian Sea level increase, the dry land territories are being flooded what causes destroy of infrastructure. In this research was developed the methodology useful for the future Caspian Sea coastal management what is nowadays inevitable for Azerbaijan to support decision makers in their everyday activities related with the sustainable development of coastal zones. As the material for the research were selected the reliable data sources as high-resolution satellite imagery which can be compared with the aerial photography which was always suitable for the purposes of the coastal management. The high-resolution satellite imagery satisfied the needs of coastal environmental management giving almost the same results as aerial photography. The satellite images were obtained with the coverage of pilot territories of Gizil-Agach Strict Nature Reserve and Sanctuary located along Caspian Sea coastal line. The main objective of this research was to present the up-to-date developed method of how to predict the Caspian Sea Level fluctuation impacts on the coastal areas by monitoring visually results of Geographical Information System processing analysis based on the accurate spatial data acquired from high-resolution stereo satellite imagery. Besides nowadays acquisition of satellite imagery is easily accessible periodically what gives possibility for the permanent tracking of coastal line change dynamics. Using the advantages of high-resolution satellite imagery it is possible to extract majority of all relief topographical details along the coastal areas and over whole pilot territory using stereo plotting techniques what is very important for the further GIS modeling of Caspian Sea possible level fluctuation impacts to coastal areas. In comparison with the already implemented works in this field, the main advantage of this research is the creation of the high-accurate digital terrain model what gives us possibility for the interpolation through the defined interval and based on this principle modeling of the potential water flood and drop areas on the different levels of Caspian Sea. The results of this research presented that the processing of high-resolution stereo satellite imagery and preparation of precise stereo model, digital terrain models and digital orthophoto maps and further GIS processing of these accurate material sources are absolutely suitable methodology for the environmental modeling of potential Caspian Sea water level fluctuations. It means that it is possible to transform this photogrammetric methodology and GIS techniques into the integrated technological form that can be used by the decision makers and all other parties involved in the activities related with the Caspian Sea coastal management. © 2007 IEEE.",,256-258,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Proc.

In this context, marine area-based conservation measures are one of the options available for facing these challenges. Marine protected areas (MPAs) have become a prominent conservation and management tool in the marine environment and are increasingly being applied worldwide, but MPAs alone are inadequate to address the environmental crisis. The promotion of other effective area-based conservation measures under draft Target 3 of the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework, i.e., conserving 30% of marine areas by 2030, holds promise to acknowledge sites, and practices occurring beyond MPAs that contribute to conservation.

In consequence, spatial policies have been implemented to manage this socio-ecological complexity from different perspectives. Protected Areas (PA) and Land Planning (LP) have been co-implemented worldwide, but they have divergent objectives: the former seeks ecosystem preservation, while the latter seeks land use development. Despite the importance PA and LP have in coastal management worldwide, we found little information on how they interact and what effects does this policyscape have on the coastal landscape. To bridge this information gap, this paper proposes a novel method to assess the interaction of overlapping PA and LP, by employing land cover and population density proxy indicators in order to determine if they are complementary or inhibitory. Using the terrestrial coast of Mexico as a case study, we found that all coastal regions exhibited overlaps between PA and LP: from the 101 instruments analyzed, 60.4 % showed overlap but they only corresponded to 5.9 % of the total Mexican terrestrial coast. The similarities between the natural cover type in PA and its overlap with LP (both ?89 %) suggest that a complementary interaction between both instruments exists in the terrestrial coast of Mexico. Nevertheless, our results found that overlapped PA had 11 % of anthropic cover and a slightlu y higher population density (62 people/km2) than PA alone (11.5 people/km2), which suggests that LP can have deleterious effects through spillover effects due to poorly integrated buffer zones and LPs’ planning hierarchy. Therefore, evidence from our results and international research suggests that a lack of integration between both spatial policies should be further addressed, especially at local case studies within regional scopes. We discuss on how the fragmentation between these spatial policies can be further assessed using allocation and attribution frameworks, concluding on integrated recommendations to Mexican coastal authorities. Our results and conclusions can be useful to other countries with similar coastal characteristics. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,121,,Land Use Policy,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,CHANGE SCIENCE; coastal zone management; ECOSYSTEM SERVICES; ENVIRONMENTAL-POLICY; FOREST COVER; FUTURE; IMPLEMENTATION; land cover; Land covers; land use planning; MANAGEMENT; MARINE; Mexico [North America]; Overlap interaction; policy implementation; POLITICAL ECOLOGY; population density; Population density; protected area; Protected area; Socio-political fragmentation; spatial planning; Spatial policy; Spatial-land planning; SUSTAINABILITY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

From 2015–2024, seventeen First Nations, the Province of British Columbia, and the Government of Canada collaboratively developed a Network Action Plan to establish an MPA Network for the Northern Shelf Bioregion (NSB). The NSB is a diverse and complex social-ecological region in British Columbia that spans an area of 102,000 km2 from Northern Vancouver Island to the Alaska border. Here, we describe the MPA Network planning process and the transition from Network planning to implementation. We discuss key elements of success that enabled the Network Action Plan's collaborative development and lessons learned to inform and improve regional MPA Network implementation and global MPA Network planning and implementation. All phases of the planning process, including governance, development, engagement, design, and analysis, were guided by the following principles: collaborative governance, multiple ways of knowing, participatory engagement, and adaptation to new information. The Network Action Plan's dynamic design process resulted in innovative approaches and tools to protect conservation objectives throughout the NSB. As the NSB MPA Network process transitions from planning toward implementation, collaborative governance, network monitoring, and ongoing participatory engagement processes will play a central role in advancing the goals and objectives articulated in the Network Action Plan and ensuring equitable social-ecological outcomes. Overall, the NSB MPA Network planning process provides a model for collaborative design of MPA Networks and can inform co-governance and co-management processes throughout the world. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,170,,Mar.

For these spatially discrete habitats, dispersal of larvae in the plankton, settlement to the seafloor, and recruitment are processes that connect populations of benthic fauna. Knowledge of these processes is vital to understanding the resilience of vent ecosystems to disturbance or removal of sources of propagules. In particular, hydrothermal vents may be impacted by human activities including scientific research, eco-tourism, bioprospecting, and polymetallic sulfide mining. In 2009 the first Marine Protected Area (MPA) for vents in the U. S. EEZ was established as part of the Marianas Trench Marine National Monument (MTMNM). The vents in this region are located along the Mariana back-arc spreading center (BASC) and volcanic arc. In 2010 we conducted the first cruise dedicated to the study of vent-endemic fauna at the southern Mariana BASC. Cruise YK10-11 on R/V Yokosuka was one of several to this region as part of the Japanese multi-disciplinary program TAIGA (Trans-crustal Advection and In-situ biogeochemical processes of Global sub-sea floor Aquifer). Larval, juvenile, and adult specimens of benthic invertebrates were collected at vents on-axis (Snail, Yamanaka) and off-axis (Archaean, Urashima, Pika) at similar to 3000-m depth. Our objectives included characterization of benthic communities, assessments of larval abundance and diversity, estimates of local-scale larval dispersal (on the order of 10 km), shipboard visualization of larval swimming behavior, and genetic diversity of populations at each vent site and genetic deviation between sites. Operations during the cruise included nine dives with the submersible Shinkai 6500 and seven deployments of subsurface moorings. These vents on the southern Mariana BASC appear to have similar macrofaunal community composition to the better-studied BASC vents similar to 600-km to the north. Benthic collections included gastropods (e. g., Alviniconcha hessleri, Phymorhynchus aff. starmeri, Shinkailepas aff. kaikatensis), barnacles (Neoverruca brachylepadoformis), shrimp (Chorocaris aff. vandoverae), and polychaetes (e. g., Paralvinella hessleri); larvae were also collected near-bottom with a slurp sampler. To further assess larval abundance and diversity, we deployed large-volume plankton pumps near three of the vents, filtering five samples of similar to 40000 L each over a 63-mu m mesh. Larvae were sorted morphologically, and selected morphotypes were identified via genetic bar-coding to phylotype and, when possible, to species. The local-scale larval dispersal study included a current meter recording near-bottom flow on-axis during the cruise. For the larval behavioral study, individual polychaete, barnacle, and gastropod larvae of several species were visualized in horizontally-and vertically-oriented chambers to measure swimming speeds at 1 atm. Local-scale population connectivity is being determined via molecular genetic analyses of mainly the benthic specimens. The population genetic study may be extended to the regional scale when linked to other analyses for specimens collected at vents elsewhere in the MTMNM, including those relatively nearby along the Mariana arc and further north on the BASC. Results of our study of larval dispersal and population connectivity at these deep-sea vents will be considered in the context of ecosystem management and protection in the MTMNM. Our work will also be considered in the broader context of connectivity of deep-sea, chemosynthesis-based ecosystems, through our involvement with the International Network for Scientific Investigations of Deep-Sea Ecosystems (INDEEP) working group on population connectivity.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000299005800167,,,,,,,back-arc spreading center; ecosystems; fluid flow measurement; larvae; Mariana Trough; oceanographic techniques; organisms,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,OCEANS 2011,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In response to this call, Canada has initiated and amplified a new National Program for Ecological Corridors to enable collaborative efforts to protect and restore ecological connectivity across the country. Using multiple methods, including a literature review and a combination of interviews and workshops with conservation stakeholders, seven enabling conditions to support the effective and equitable implementation of the program were identified. These enabling conditions encompass respectful and meaningful engagement of and inclusion of Indigenous Peoples; establishing high-level commitment and vision, consistent with international and national biodiversity conservation and climate change commitments, supported by predictable, sustained funding and enabling legislation; and developing an appropriately scaled national corridor vision and supporting criteria and indicators to effectively monitor and communicate outcomes for biodiversity and people. Supporting mechanisms and strategies are detailed that can be used to effectively enable a national corridor program in Canada, providing early lessons learned and next steps for consideration by the wider global conservation community who are also striving to meet their own biodiversity and climate change adaptation goals. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,286,,Biol.

Extensive damage to the reef from bottom fishing activities was apparent, which resulted in the establishment of the 15-km2 Lophelia Coral Conservation Area (LCCA) in 2004 to prevent further damage and allow recovery. Since 2004, the effectiveness of the LCCA in achieving these objectives has never been assessed. Through the analysis of benthic images collected in 2003, 2009, and 2015, we evaluated the effectiveness of the LCCA in terms of its success in facilitating the recolonization and recovery of its target species, L. pertusa, and in conserving local benthic biodiversity. Using multivariate community analyses and generalized linear modelling techniques, we compared changes in the diversity, abundance, and composition of epibenthic megafauna within and outside its boundaries over the 12-year period. We observed an increase in epibenthic megafaunal species density and abundance over time that was higher inside the closure than outside, suggesting that the LCCA has facilitated the recruitment and recovery of the benthic communities within its confines. While recruitment of L. pertusa was low, the recent discovery of numerous undisturbed large mounds of live L. pertusa establishes a local recruitment source, a prerequisite for the reef structure to recover to its pre-disturbed state. We recommend that monitoring of the reef structure occur every 7–10 years to evaluate the settlement and growth of L. pertusa and the other deep-water corals that reside there. © 2021",,,,,26,,Glob.

Location State of Săo Paulo, Brazil. Methods We used the software Marxan to evaluate different scenarios of amphibian conservation planning. Our approach differs from previous methods by explicitly including two different landscape metrics; habitat split for species with aquatic larvae, and habitat loss for species with terrestrial development. We evaluated the effect of habitat requirements by classifying species breeding habitats in five categories (flowing water, still water permanent, still water temporary, bromeliad or bamboo, and terrestrial). We performed analyses using two scales, grid cells and watersheds and also considered nature preserves as protected areas. Results We found contrasting patterns of deforestation between coastal and inland regions. Seventy-six grid cells and 14 watersheds are capable of representing each species at least once. When accounting for grid cells already protected in state and national parks and considering species habitat requirements we found 16 high-priority grid cells for species with one or two reproductive habitats, and only one cell representing species with four habitat requirements. Key areas for the conservation of species breeding in flowing and permanent still waters are concentrated in southern state, while those for amphibians breeding in temporary ponds are concentrated in central to eastern zones. Eastern highland zones are key areas for preserving species breeding terrestrially by direct or indirect development. Species breeding in bromeliads and bamboos are already well represented in protected areas. Main conclusions Our results emphasize the need to integrate information on landscape configuration and species life-history traits to produce more ecologically relevant conservation strategies. © 2009 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,Oct-19,,1,16,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Amphibia; amphibian; Amphibian declines; Area prioritization; bamboo; Bambusa; Brazil; breeding site; conservation planning; deforestation; habitat conservation; habitat fragmentation; Habitat fragmentation; habitat loss; Habitat split; life history trait; monocotyledon; population decline; prioritization; protected area; Protected areas; Sao Paulo [Brazil]; Sao Paulo [Sao Paulo (STT)]; software; Systematic conservation planning; watershed,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We assessed the role of analytic method choice on ecological conclusions derived from an acoustic telemetry array at Buck Island Reef National Monument, USVI. Core use area estimates of great barracuda Sphyraena barracuda (n = 32) generated with 3 methods were compared, and the impact of variation in detection history on the ability to interpret results was modeled. Kernel utilization densities, dynamic Brownian bridge movement models, and network analysis indicated high site fidelity paired with less frequent broad exploratory movements. The first 2 methods both identified high use areas, whereas network methods placed higher emphasis on movement corridors and links between core and peripheral use areas. Generalized linear models showed that detection history impacted home range area estimates and confounded the ability to determine ecological relationships. As marine protected areas increase in relevance, it is important that methods to evaluate their effectiveness do not miss complex spatial-temporal patterns and that areas vital to ecological processes are considered alongside areas of highest use.

Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of the Roseli Nunes rural settlement implantation and its land use dynamics on surface biophysical parameters. For this, the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and surface albedo (?s), temperature (Ts) and net radiation (Rn) in protected area, native, urban, mandioca and banana planting, pasture and exposed soil areas were calculated from Landsat 5 and Landsat 8 images. Meteorological data and satellite images were obtained during the dry season in 2000, 2010 and 2017. NDVI and Rn decreased and ?s and Ts increased from 2000 to 2010 due to the replacement of native vegetation in small agricultural and urban areas. However, they presented an inverse pattern from 2010 to 2017 in the settlement. Protected and native areas presented the highest values of NDVI and Rn, and the lowest values ?s and Ts, while the areas with agricultural crops, pasture and exposed soil presented the lowest values of NDVI and Rn, and the highest values ?s and Ts. Finally, the biophysical parameters were significantly altered with the deforestation of the settlement area between 2000 and 2010, and the vegetation recovery between 2010 and 2017, when the values of the biophysical parameters were close to those found before the settlement was established. © 2020 Universidade Federal do Parana.

Ningaloo Reef, in north-western Australia, is protected by the Ningaloo Marine Park (state waters), which was expanded incrementally in 2004 so that 34% of the park now comprises 'no-take' sanctuary zones. To test the hypothesis that all habitats (benthic cover types) at Ningaloo are actually protected at this 34% level, a systematic conservation planning exercise was conducted using existing broad-scale habitat data (as a surrogate for marine biodiversity) and C-Plan decision-support software. Although subtidal and intertidal coral communities were found to be adequately protected, other habitats, particularly those in deeper waters seaward of the reef, did not attain the 34% target. Efficient incremental additions to the sanctuary zones to allow increased representation of these under-represented habitats were explored with C-Plan. It is recommended that systematic conservation planning incorporating new biodiversity and social information (now becoming available) be undertaken for the next iteration of the Ningaloo Marine Park management plan.

The design of regional networks of marine reserves is concerned with the problem of where to place the marine protected areas and how to spatially configure them. Quantitative methods for doing this provide important decision support tools for marine managers, The central problem is to balance the costs and benefits of the reserve network, whilst satisfying conservation objectives (hence solving a constrained optimization problem). Current optimization algorithms for reserve design are widely used, but none allow for the systematic incorporation of data uncertainty and its effect on the reserve design solutions. The central purpose of this study is to provide a framework for incorporating uncertain ecological input data into algorithms for designing networks of marine reserves. In order to do this, a simplified version of the marine reserve design optimization problem is considered. A Metropolis-Hastings random search procedure is introduced to systematically sample the model solution space and converge on an optimal reserve design. Incorporation of the uncertain input data builds on this process and relies on a parametric bootstrapping procedure. This allows for the solution (i.e, the marine reserve design) to be expressed as the probability of any planning unit being included in the marine reserve network. Spatial plots of this acceptance probability are easily interpretable for decision making under uncertainty. The bootstrapping methodology is also readily adapted to existing comprehensive reserve design algorithms.

Managers can only target and tailor these actions if they regularly receive information on system condition and impact severity. In large coral reef areas like the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (GBRMP), acquiring condition and impact data with good spatial and temporal coverage requires using a large network of observers. Here, we describe the result of ~10 years of evolving and refining participatory monitoring programs used in the GBR that have rangers, tourism operators and members of the public as observers. Participants complete Reef Health and Impact Surveys (RHIS) using a protocol that meets coral reef managers’ needs for up-to-date information on the following: benthic community composition, reef condition and impacts including coral diseases, damage, predation and the presence of rubbish. Training programs ensure that the information gathered is sufficiently precise to inform management decisions. Participants regularly report because the demands of the survey methodology have been matched to their time availability. Undertaking the RHIS protocol we describe involves three ~20 min surveys at each site. Participants enter data into an online data management system that can create reports for managers and participants within minutes of data being submitted. Since 2009, 211 participants have completed a total of more than 10,415 surveys at more than 625 different reefs. The two-way exchange of information between managers and participants increases the capacity to manage reefs adaptively, meets education and outreach objectives and can increase stewardship. The general approach used and the survey methodology are both sufficiently adaptable to be used in all reef regions. © 2014, Springer International Publishing Switzerland.",,8527-8540,,12,186,,Environ.

This has happened through fi rst, its discovery as an economically important species, second through research of its ecological role in coastal estuaries, and third, through education of the public concerning its role in the environment and their own health. To manage horseshoe crab populations successfully requires long term monitoring, research and education. The use of annual or biannual trawl data trends to assess the success of management decisions is limited due to the high variance of counts by location, season, and year, and is prone to misinterpretation. Trawling also damages the very habitat that the target species needs to survive. What is required to reach the goal of a sustainably managed population is the determination of local population dynamics and then modifying management practices to maximize reproductive success of the species. In Long Island Sound (LIS), these basic requirements for sustainable management have not been available until recently. The two states that manage horseshoe crabs in Long Island Sound (Connecticut and New York) have drastically different harvest regulations and management plans that are clearly not working. The LIS horseshoe crab population has declined and remains low as shown by both the long term trawl data and our long term markrecapture data. After 13 years of a classic ecological study we found the Long Island Sound horseshoe crab population to be one discrete management unit where at least 3 % of the recaptures were found to cross the Sound. The LIS population is aging with low recruitment of newly molted adults and is reproducing well below its maximum rate. We observed very low spawning densities, increasing numbers of single females on the beach, and less than 6 % of polyandrous mating behavior. These basic population trends over the length of this study indicate the current harvest quotas and management techniques are not sustainable. We recommend at the very least the implementation of a unifi ed management plan for Long Island Sound with one shared harvest quota for the entire LIS population. Second, we suggest that the number of no-harvest zones should be increased on both sides of the Sound and a ban of the harvest of spawning females should be added to existing harvest regulations. Ultimately, we would recommend the establishment of multiple Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) within LIS where the entire MPA is off limits to commercial or recreational fi shing of any type. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015.",,433-461,,,,,,,,,,,Springer International Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Changing Global Perspectives on Horseshoe Crab Biology, Conservation and Management DOI: 10.1007/978-3-319-19542-1_25",,,,Condition; Harvest regulations; Home range; Long Island Sound; Mark-recapture data; Operational sex ratios; Population dynamics; Prosomal width,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

(1) Four South Island, New Zealand no-take marine reserves (MR) (Long Island Kokomohua, LIMR; Hikurangi, HMR; Ulva Island, UIMR; and Five Fingers, FFMR), and areas directly outside these MRs were surveyed using potting surveys. Abundance was higher and mean length larger inside than outside the MRs in thirteen and eleven of the fourteen surveys, respectively. Protection from fishing within three of the four MRs (LIMR, HMR, UIMR), appears to have allowed recovery of blue cod to a lesser or greater extent. (2) Three potting surveys spanned the temporary 2.5 year (2008–2011) closure of the inner Queen Charlotte and Pelorus Sounds to blue cod fishing. Blue cod abundance and mean length increased after closure for two years, and then decreased 30 months after opening as did blue cod presence. Growth alone may be sufficient to account for the observed increases in abundance and size during the closure.

Within its agency's context, each unit has its own management strategy, authority, and resources of conservation concern, many of which are migratory animals. Though some units are geographically isolated, many are nevertheless linked by paths of abiotic and biotic flows, such as rivers, air masses, flyways, and terrestrial and aquatic migration routes. Furthermore, individual land units exist within the context of a larger landscape pattern of shifting conditions, requiring managers to understand at larger spatial scales the status and trends in the synchrony and spatial concurrence of species and associated suitable habitats. Results of these changes will determine the ability of Alaska lands to continue to: provide habitat for local and migratory species; absorb species whose ranges are shifting northward; and experience mitigation or exacerbation of climate change through positive and negative atmospheric feedbacks. We discuss the geographic and statutory contexts that influence development of ecological monitoring; argue for the inclusion of significant amounts of broad-scale monitoring; discuss the importance of defining clear programmatic and monitoring objectives; and draw from lessons learned from existing long-term, broad-scale monitoring programs to apply to the specific contexts relevant to high-latitude protected areas such as those in Alaska. Such areas are distinguished by their: marked seasonality; relatively large magnitudes of contemporary change in climatic parameters; and relative inaccessibility due to broad spatial extent, very low (or zero) road density, and steep and glaciated areas. For ecological monitoring to effectively support management decisions in high-latitude areas such as Alaska, a monitoring program ideally would be structured to address the actual spatial and temporal scales of relevant processes, rather than the artificial boundaries of individual land-management units.

We expose trade-offs between areas that contribute substantially to several objectives and those meeting one or two objectives extremely well. Hence there are two strategies to guide countries choosing to implement regional goals nationally: multi-objective hotspots and complementary sets of single-objective priorities. This novel framework is applicable to any multilateral or global initiative seeking to apply quantitative information in decision making. © Macmillan Publishers Limited.

Yet, the paucity of spatial data for most coral reef taxa often requires conservation planners to design reserve systems based only on a subset of taxonomic groups as surrogates for all other taxa. In terrestrial systems the validity of surrogates for reserve design is established by testing for cross-taxon congruence (similarities in spatial patterns of species richness), but this concept has rarely been examined in the marine environment. We tested the suitability of taxa as conservation representation surrogates of coral reef species richness across the Indo-Pacific, based on species lists of fishes, corals, and mollusks from 167 sites. First, we tested the relevance of cross-taxon congruence patterns to predict these surrogacy patterns. We determined congruence between taxonomic groups by conducting a correlation analysis of dissimilarity values between pairs of sites. We then evaluated how well each taxonomic group represented the other groups in a marine reserve system selected by a greedy reserve-selection algorithm relative to reserve systems selected by chance. No taxonomic group we examined was a reliable surrogate for the other groups such that site selection based on that group always represented other taxa significantly better than random selection of sites. Sites selected based on hard corals represented the other taxonomic groups in a reserve system worse than randomly selected sites. Although we found high cross-taxon congruence between fishes and corals and between corals and mollusks, for some regions cross-taxon congruence was not always a reliable indicator of the ability of one taxonomic group to efficiently represent another in a reserve system. We concluded that in Indo-Pacific coral reef ecosystems one can only be sure that a target taxon is efficiently represented in a reserve system when data on that taxon are used to select a reserve system. © 2007 Society for Conservation Biology.",,1584-1593,,6,21,,Conserv.

Pollination service is threatened by habitat loss, pesticides, and climate change. We collected potential pollinators with blue vane traps in native grasslands, Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) lands, and cropland (land use), and their embedded playa wetlands (land type) in the Southern High Plains of Texas (SHP). We collected vegetation data that included floral cover, floral diversity, native grass cover, introduced grass cover, canopy gap, and duff cover. Our objective was to determine if individual vegetation characteristics influenced potential pollinator abundance and richness in addition to land use or land type as a whole. The top model explaining abundance was land use, land type, and floral cover. Floral cover had a positive influence on all land uses. The top model that explained insect richness was land use x floral cover, land type, canopy gap, and duff cover. Floral cover positively influenced insect richness in native grasslands but negatively influenced cropland and CRP richness. Percent of canopy gap had a slight negative influence on insect richness, and duff cover positively influenced richness. Our recommendations to land managers are to protect playas to preserve undisturbed areas and native floral resources and seed all future CRP contracts with floral rich plantings to provide for pollinators over the entire growing season. Implications for insect conservation: Our results show that vegetation characteristics shared by all land uses such as floral cover, canopy gap and duff cover influence pollinator abundance and richness. Therefore, conserving playa wetlands and programs such as the CRP have the potential for enhancing pollinator habitat in working landscapes of the SHP of Texas. © 2022, The Author(s).",,231-241,,2,26,,J.

The most useful conservation response is to enlarge and link protected areas to support range shifts by plants and animals. To prioritize land for reserves and linkages, some scientists attempt to chain together four highly uncertain models (emission scenarios, global air-ocean circulation, regional circulation, and biotic response). This approach has high risk of error propagation and compounding and produces outputs at a coarser scale than conservation decisions. Instead, we advocate identifying land facets-recurring landscape units with uniform topographic and soil attributes-and designing reserves and linkages for diversity and interspersion of these units. This coarse-filter approach would conserve the arenas of biological activity, rather than the temporary occupants of those arenas. Integrative, context-sensitive variables, such as insolation and topographic wetness, are useful for defining land facets. Classification procedures such as k-means or fuzzy clustering are a good way to define land facets because they can analyze millions of pixels and are insensitive to case order. In regions lacking useful soil maps, river systems or riparian plants can indicate important facets. Conservation planners should set higher representation targets for rare and distinctive facets. High interspersion of land facets can promote ecological processes, evolutionary interaction, and range shift. Relevant studies suggest land-facet diversity is a good surrogate for today's biodiversity, but fails to conserve some species. To minimize such failures, a reserve design based on land facets should complement, rather than replace, other approaches. Designs based on land facets are not biased toward data-rich areas and can be applied where no maps of land cover exist. © 2010 Society for Conservation Biology.",,701-710,,3,24,,Conserv.

The park is of prime importance for palaearctic and afrotropical birds. The area belonged to the flood system of the Senegal River, but inundations ceased after completion of the embankment of the river in the early 1960s. The Djoudj Basin was to be converted into irrigated rice fields, but owing to salinification of the soil this idea had to be abandoned, and the area was given its present designation. Originally the park was managed with little consideration for the people living nearby, but since 1987 a new policy has aimed at cooperation with the local people. As natural floodings have been excluded, the park is annually inundated through sluices in the embankment. The park has a high fish production, and harbours large numbers of piscivorous birds, notably the white pelicans. No fishing has been allowed. Grazing has been excluded, so the park forms a green oasis in the region. In the new plan fish ponds will be created north of the park, near the villages, and the park's fish production will maintain the stock. A section of the park will be opened up for limited grazing, for villagers only. Already, the park staff are assisting the villagers with the construction of rice fields, and with reafforestation, using the National Parks Service's equipment and expertise. In addition, the Service aims at more education of the public, by improving the provisions for visitors, establishing an information centre, probably in the city of St. Louis, and by starting activities with local schools. The plans and ideas have originated from the present Park's management and have the support of the IUCN, and other organizations.

We found a positive effect of MPAs on biomass and community structure, as almost all commercially important species were more abundant in MPAs. Apex predators, carnivores and herbivores showed higher biomasses in protected areas, while planktivorous were similar among sites. As well, target species of artisanal fisheries and dive-ornamental fisheries were larger in MPAs. Areas closed to fishing can contribute to keeping biomass high, improve species richness in the region, and help to recover ecosystem services in coral reefs, even in anthropogenic impacted areas.

A conceptual framework of climate change vulnerability was developed for Corales del Rosario y San Bernardo National Natural Park (PNNCRSB), Colombia, a park designated to protect coastal and marine eco systems. Climate change vulnerability scores were developed based on resource-specific sensitivity, exposure, and adaptive capacity to climate change factors (sea surface and air temperature, precipitation, ocean acidification, and inundation from sea level rise and extreme events). Exposure scores were based on exceedances of thresholds, or when applicable, inundation. Scores were calculated for 10 m2 grid cells every 5 yr between 2010 and 2100 under 'optimistic' and 'pessimistic' climate change scenarios. Sea turtle nesting beaches, coastal and interior lagoons, corals and bird habitat are the natural resources with the highest vulnerability scores. Among socioeconomic resources, recreational beaches and low-lying roads are among the most vulnerable. Based on the 2100 pessimistic scenario, adaptive capacity contributed the most to the vulnerability score (range: 34-55% contribution), followed by sensitivity (range: 27-41%) and exposure (range: 14-37%). Based on elevation alone, coastal and interior lagoons, mangroves and sea turtle nesting beaches in low-lying areas are among the most susceptible resources to inundation, which ranged from -0.7 to -172 m2 yr-1 and from -3.7 to -473 m2 yr-1 for the optimistic and pessimist scenarios, respectively. While this climate change vulnerability framework for PNNCRSB may aid in the prioritization of mitigation and conservation strategies within the park, an understanding of the approach, including its limitations and uncertainties, is recommended. © Inter-Research 2016.",,Jan-18,,1,70,,Clim.

Although protection is afforded to iconic species in some areas, impacts of the fishery on the ecosystem are poorly understood. The goal of this study was to locate the major potential ecological threats from the fishery by integrating catch data with species-specific metrics of ecological importance and vulnerability to fishing. Region-wide and country-specific grounds for ecological concern were identified. The heavy exploitation of Naso unicornis was the most serious regional concern-not only was it the most vulnerable species involved in the fishery, but it plays a low-redundancy functional role (i.e. macroalgal browsing) in the ecosystem. The parrotfishes Cetoscarus bicolor, Scarus rubroviolaceus and Chlorurus microrhinos were also implicated in ecological risks (most noticeable in Palau), and the large proportion of immature catch aggravated the concerns found in Pohnpei. An interview-based assessment of species desirability among fishers highlighted the challenges managers may meet locally in diverting attention away from heavily harvested species. Opportunities to alleviate the ecological risks posed by a significant sector of the Micronesian fisheries were identified. Inducing changes in fishers' targeting behaviour towards opportunis - tically-caught species may prove feasible in most countries, and if enacted, may reduce fishing pressure in low-redundancy functional roles. The effectiveness of the policy options supported by the present approach in sustaining reef function and resilience has yet to be assessed. However, we anticipate that informing fishers about the implications of their selectivity may achieve tangible progress in conservation of the species. Therefore, policies which moderate catch rates of highly desirable species, as well as efforts to promote more conscious targeting behaviours, may complement the benefits of the existing networks of marine protected areas. © Inter-Research 2013.",,197-215,,,482,,Mar.

While marine parks aim to meet this challenge by regulating fishing through zoning plans, their effectiveness hinges on compliance levels and may respond to changes in fishing practices. Here we use a speciose assemblage of nominally herbivorous reef fish in Karimunjawa National Park (zoned since 1989) to investigate whether areas subject to a restrictive management regime sustained higher biomass over seven years compared to areas where moderate and permissive regulations apply. Using a trait-based approach we characterize the functional space of the entire species pool and ask whether changes in biomass translate into changes in functional structure. We track changes in predator biomass, benthic community structure, and fishing practices that could influence herbivore trajectories. Overall herbivore biomass doubled in 2012 compared to 2006–2009 and remained high in 2013 across all management regimes. We found no evidence that this biomass build-up resulted from predator depletion or increased food availability but suggest it emerged in response to a park-wide cessation of fishing with large drive nets known as muroami. The biomass increase was accompanied by a modest increase in taxonomic richness and a slight decrease in community-scale rarity that did not alter functional redundancy levels. Subtle changes in both functional specialization and identity of assemblages emerged as generalist species with low intrinsic vulnerability to fishing recovered sooner than more vulnerable specialists. While this implies a recovery of mechanisms responsible for the grazing of algal turfs and detritus, restoring other facets of herbivory (e.g., macroalgal consumption) may require more time. An increase in the cost-benefit ratio per journey of muroami fishing facilitated a ban on muroami nets that met minimal resistance. Similar windows of opportunity may emerge elsewhere in which gear-based regulations can supplement zoning plans, especially when compliance is low. This does not advocate for implementing such regulations once a fishery has become unprofitable. Rather, it underlines their importance for breaking the cycle of resource depletion and low compliance to zoning, thus alleviating the resulting threats to food security and ecosystem integrity. © 2019 The Authors.

However, there is still scant information about relationships between local and large-scale population structure, and to what extent geographical and environmental variables are associated with barriers to gene flow. We used information from 3,782 mapped SNPs developed for the present study and conducted outlier tests and gene–environment association (GEA) analyses in order to examine drivers of population structure. Analyses comprised >2,600 fish from 72 riverine populations spanning a central part of the species' distribution in northern Europe. We report hitherto unidentified genetic breaks in population structure, indicating strong barriers to gene flow. GEA loci were widely spread across genomic regions and showed correlations with climatic, abiotic and geographical parameters. In some cases, individual loci showed consistent GEA across the geographical regions Britain, Europe and Scandinavia. In other cases, correlations were observed only within a sub-set of regions, suggesting that locus-specific variation was associated with local processes. A paired-population sampling design allowed us to evaluate sampling effects on detection of outlier loci and GEA. Two widely applied methods for outlier detection (pcadapt and bayescan) showed low overlap in loci identified as statistical outliers across sub-sets of data. Two GEA analytical approaches (LFMM and RDA) showed good correspondence concerning loci associated with specific variables, but LFMM identified five times more statistically significant associations than RDA. Our results emphasize the importance of carefully considering the statistical methods applied for the hypotheses being tested in outlier analysis. Sampling design may have lower impact on results if the objective is to identify GEA loci and their population distribution. Our study provides new insights into trout populations, and results have direct management implications in serving as a tool for identification of conservation units. © 2019 The Authors.

Using low-cost stereo baited remote underwater video, we evaluated potential protection effects in the demersal assemblage of a marine reserve in European Atlantic temperate waters (southwestern Portugal). Due to a lack of before-MPA data, we compared multiple sites from the reserve inside and outside, investigated time trends, and assessed the potentially confounding effects of physical habitat. We found greater biomass of the legal-sized group (i.e. commercial above legal minimum landing size) inside the reserve than outside in the most recent year as opposed to the first year and a significant time increase in its abundance and biomass inside but not outside, indicating different trends in protection levels. On the contrary, biomass of the non-target group decreased significantly in both protection levels through time. One of the most targeted species, the legal-sized Diplodus sargus, reached significantly higher biomass inside than outside while also manifesting positive protection signs in abundance and length. Two legal-sized taxa showed no (Diplodus vulgaris) and negative (Mugilidae) protection responses, possibly due to low value and mobility of the latter.

However, the assessment of MPAs often lacks a simultaneous consideration of ecological and socio-economic outcomes, and this can lead to misconceptions on the effectiveness of MPAs. In this perspective, we present a transdisciplinary approach based on the Delphi method for mapping and evaluating Marine Protected Areas for their ability to protect biodiversity while providing Ecosystem Services (ES) and related human well-being benefits – i.e., the ecosystem outputs from which people benefit. We highlight the need to include the human dimensions of marine protection in such assessments, given that the effectiveness of MPAs over time is conditional on the social, cultural and institutional contexts in which MPAs evolve. Our approach supports Ecosystem-Based Management and highlights the importance of MPAs in achieving restoration, conservation, and sustainable development objectives in relation to EU Directives such as the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD), the Maritime Spatial Planning Directive (MSPD), and the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP). © Copyright © 2021 Belgrano, Novaglio, Svedäng, Villasante, Melián, Blenckner, Bergström, Bryhn, Bergström, Bartolino, Sköld, Tomczak, Wikström, Hansen, Linke, Emmerson, Morf and Tönnesson.",,,,,9,,Front. ecol. evol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Frontiers Media S.A.,,,,biodiversity; blue economy; ecosystem-based management; fisheries; human well-being; socio-ecological systems; surveys,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

These steps should be explicit and follow a chronology. This paper presents a general framework for the design and use of management-oriented indicators, integrating management questions and performance criteria. We first examined the desirable characteristics of indicators aimed at providing decision-support for marine environmental management. Ideally, one should select the indicator that guarantees a safe and unambiguous decision leading to the appropriate measures in terms of regulation, remediation or control. In the present study, indicators are assessed according to two criteria: relevance and effectiveness. Relevance encompasses sensitivity and the existence of quantitative reference values, thereby allowing the selection of potential indicators. Effectiveness is the ability of the indicator to reach its predefined targets based on optimal (or at least improved) data collection protocols. The framework is illustrated by applying it to the European Water Framework Directive and to the Marine Protected Area management contexts. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,84-92,,1,54,,Ocean Coast.

The National Estuarine Research Reserve System (NERRS), through its network of protected estuarine sites and research, education, and interpretation mandates, may provide an effective means for enhancing public awareness and management of shellfish aquaculture within the nation’s estuarine areas. However, the NERRS’s role regarding the presence of aquaculture within Reserve boundaries, for research or non-research purposes, is not broadly understood by NERRS stakeholders. The goals of this study were to broadly review and highlight the current activities, regulatory framework, and engagement approaches to aquaculture within the NERRS, and more specifically, to focus on the suitability and role(s) the NERRS may choose to seek or strengthen with respect to shellfish aquaculture. To accomplish this, a survey questionnaire was disseminated within the NERRS community. Twelve of the 29 Reserves within the NERRS held some type of aquaculture activity, while 17 Reserves believed their Reserve was suitable or potentially suitable for shellfish aquaculture. Reserve suitability was driven by a range of factors, including: water quality, NERRS regulations, character of Reserve land-managing entities, scope of protected areas, and preexisting or historical shellfish aquaculture and/or wild harvest activities. Overall, the Reserves’ approach to shellfish aquaculture was locally focused, but with patterns that reflected a regional influence. Additionally, Reserves displayed key roles as coordinating entities and a trusted source of science. Particularly with establishing commercial aquaculture, it is critical to couple the goals of an aquaculture activity with the net positive and negative impacts to a specific geographic area. We recommend that the NERRS would benefit from developing best management practices for approaching shellfish aquaculture within Reserve boundaries, and educating and engaging with shellfish aquaculture stakeholders. One approach might be to develop a decision-support model for approaching and allowing each use of aquaculture (research, restoration, conservation, recreation, and commercial), in collaboration with regulatory agencies and other stakeholders. © This work was authored as part of the Contributor’s official duties as an Employee of the United States Government and is therefore a work of the United States Government.

There are many examples of island MPAs across the world because of their advantages compared to mainland sites, and although evidence suggests they effectively protect biodiversity and may have localized fisheries benefits, their contribution to larval export and connectivity to mainland areas remains largely unknown; these are important aspects of MPA sustainability and functioning. Here I examined the genetic differentiation between four island MPAs in northern Europe and their respective mainlands, relative to differentiation of populations along the coast at similar spatial scales for two marine invertebrates (Semibalanus balanoides, planktonic larvae; Nucella lapillus, direct development). These data were used to infer past patterns of larval exchange between populations. Gene flow was restricted at all four locations between the islands and the mainland, compared to gene flow along the coast (for both species) and more distant islands had greater differentiation than those closer to the mainland for S. balanoides, but not for N. lapillus. My results of genetic analysis suggest that island MPAs may not provide as much larval export or receive as much buffering against local extinctions, compared with mainland populations (for a similar sized protected area). My findings are especially relevant to the creation of MPA networks and in understanding the importance of connectivity in achieving the greatest fisheries benefits and in ensuring inter-MPA linkages. Low levels of larval exchange may limit the success of any protected area and may prevent multiple conservation objectives from being achieved. © 2008 Elsevier Ltd.

In this study, we aimed to infer on spillover mechanism of Diplodus spp. (family Sparidae) from a Mediterranean MPA (Carry-le-Rouet, France) from visual censuses and artisanal fisheries data. From the existing literature, three potential functional forms of spillover such as a linear gradient, an exponential gradient and a logistic gradient are defined. Each functional form is included in a spatial generalized linear mixed model allowing accounting for spatial autocorrelation of data. We select between the different forms of gradients by using a Bayesian model selection procedure. In a first step, the functional form of the spillover for visual census and artisanal fishing data is assessed separately. For both sets of data, our model selection favoured the negative exponential model, evidencing a decrease of the spatial abundance of fish vanishing around 1000. m from the MPA border. We combined both datasets in a joint model by including an observability parameter. This parameter captures how the different sources of data quantify the underlying spatial distribution of the harvested species. This enabled us to demonstrate that the different sampling methods do not affect the estimation of the underlying spatial distribution of Diplodus spp. inside and outside the MPA. We show that data from different sources can be pooled through spatial generalized linear mixed model. Our findings allow to better understand the underlying mechanisms that control spillover of fish from MPA. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.",,188-193,,,18,,Ecol.

Location: The study was carried out in the “Stagnone di Marsala e Saline di Trapani e Paceco,” the largest coastal lagoon system in the central Mediterranean Sea (Sicily, Italy), a Special Protection Area located along one of the central ecological corridors joining Africa and Europe. Methods: The coastal lagoon system was selected as a model ecosystem to investigate the seasonal variations in biodiversity indices and dominance–diversity relationships in phytobenthos, macro-zoobenthos and fishes, and how seasonal variations in temperature, salinity, depth, inorganic and organic suspended matter affect the abundance of the species constituting these communities. Models of ecosystem structure, describing the interactions among functional groups and environmental variables, were also developed using confirmatory path analysis and artificial neural networks to exemplify their application in predicting temperature-driven alterations. Results: Wide seasonal variations in biodiversity indices and dominance–diversity relationships across the communities of the coastal lagoon system were observed, driven by the dynamics in climate and resource availability. The effects of the environmental variables on taxon abundances varied in relation to the community, with the widest responses elicited in phytobenthos and fishes. Temperature was the main variable affecting taxon abundances in macro-zoobenthos and was also the major driver of shallow water ecosystem structure. Main conclusions: This research shed light on the seasonal variations in biodiversity of Mediterranean coastal lagoons, elucidating also the tight dependence of phytobenthos, macro-zoobenthos and fish diversity upon environmental factors.

The Coastal Law 02-02 was established to achieve this goal by using geographic information system (GIS) and remote sensing to assess the degree of implementation of this law on the ground. This evaluation highlighted a significant evolution of land use in the coastal zone of El Tarf province over a period of 32 years, from 1990 to 2022. In 1990, the area was predominantly forested (55.08%) with a proportion of agricultural land of 27.26% and a significant portion of wetland areas (17.26%). Over time, the forested area decreased to reach 48.58% in 2022, while agricultural land and urban areas increased. This evolution suggests increasing pressure on natural resources, with potential implications for the environment and biodiversity of the region. Despite the 2002 Coastal Law 02-02s which sets specific provisions for the protection and enhancement of the coastline, it is important to emphasize the importance of sustainable management of natural resources and land use in the region. It is essential to implement measures to protect the fragile ecosystems of the region and ensure the sustainability of natural resource use to preserve the environment and biodiversity of the region for future generations.

Overall, the highest bark regeneration rates occurred in female trees with >= 20.1 cm diameter that were wet season harvested with a 50% debarking intensity.

We surveyed small mammals for five years in sites with long-and short-term protection and non-protected. Besides protection status, we included elevation, habitat heterogeneity, and the month of survey as predictors in our models. As response variables, we considered abundance, presence, species composition and species richness. Community abundance responded to all four predictors and species composition was influenced by protection status and month of study. The shrews Sorex araneus and S. minutus had positive responses to protection, both in terms of abundance and relative abundance (their ratio within the community).

Yet our understanding of their efficacy is often limited because it is measured for a few biological components, that are generally top predators or commercially interesting species. Documenting the variation of plankton indicators and their covariation with climate is crucial to understand how marine protected areas benefit from ecosystem-based approaches to achieve their conservation targets. Under this perspective, we aim to document the variations in the emerging properties of the plankton to better understand the dynamics of the pelagic fishes, mammals and seabirds that inhabit the region. For the first time, we analyse the temporal variations of the entire plankton community of one of the widest European protected areas, the Parc Naturel Marin de la mer d'Iroise. We make use of several sampling transects carried out in the Iroise Sea from 2011 to 2015 to explore the seasonal and inter-annual variations of phytoplankton and mesozooplankton abundance, composition and size, as well as their covariation with abiotic variables, through multiple multivariate analyses. Both phytoplankton and zooplankton show consistent seasonal patterns in taxonomic composition and size structure but also inter-annual variations. The spring bloom was associated with a higher contribution of large chain-forming diatoms compared to nanoflagellates that dominate in fall and summer. Dinoflagellates show strong inter-annual variations in their relative contribution. The community composition of phytoplankton has a strong impact on the one of mesozooplankton together with the distance to the coast. The size structure of the mesozooplankton community, examined through the ratio of small to large copepods, also displays marked seasonal patterns as larger copepods (members of the Calanidae) are more abundant in spring than in summer and fall. Several hypotheses are proposed to explain the observed temporal patterns and their importance for understanding the dynamics of other components of the food-web (such as sardines) are discussed. This study is a first step towards the inclusion of the planktonic compartment into the planning of the resources and diversity conservation within the Marine Protected Area. © 2019 Benedetti, Jalabert, Sourisseau, Beker, Cailliau, Desnos, Elineau, Irisson, Lombard, Picheral, Stemmann and Pouline.",,,,APR,6,,Front.

Currently, anthropogenic pressure is threatening the biodiversity of this habitat. While the impact of human pressure on animals and vascular plants is already documented, information is still scanty for other organisms such as epiphytic lichens. The main aim of this study is to test the effect of human disturbance on the occurrence and abundance of the red-listed macrolichen Seirophora villosa. We also tested the effect of human disturbance on the whole community of epiphytic lichens in terms of species richness and composition. The study was performed along the coast of Tuscany by comparing both disturbed and undisturbed Juniperus stands according to a stratified random sampling design. Our results provided evidence that in coastal systems the long-term conservation of the red-listed macrolichen S. villosa and its characteristic community composed by several Mediterranean species of conservation concern depends on the maintenance of undisturbed Juniperus habitats. Results also support the possibility of using S. villosa as an indicator species of habitat conservation importance and habitat integrity since its occurrence is predicted on nestedness in term of species composition, assemblages of species poor disturbed stands being subsets of those of richer undisturbed stands. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media New York.",,939-945,,4,52,,Environ.

However, comparisons of genomic patterns inside and outside marine reserves in multiple species are scarce. Here, we aim to fill this gap by 1) comparing genomic variation in protected versus unprotected areas in a network of eight reserves in the Mediterranean Sea, and 2) disentangling the effect of seascape, space and marine reserves on this genomic variation in 1297 individuals from four species genotyped at more than 10 000 SNPs each. We report homogeneous patterns of local genetic diversity within and outside reserves in three of the four species (the white seabream Diplodus sargus, the striped red mullet Mullus surmuletus and the European spiny lobster Palinurus elephas). Surprisingly, the comber Serranus cabrilla shows lower genetic diversity in protected areas, highlighting an apparent conservation paradox that may be due to increased predation by protected fishes in the reserves. Multivariate analyses reveal that seascape factors (salinity, temperature and chlorophyll) and space exert a significant influence on genomic variation in some cases, while protection status has no detectable effect. Nevertheless, four marine reserves (Cabo de Palos, Cerbčre-Banyuls, Cap de Creus and Illes Columbretes) harbor singular genetic variation in one or two species. This pattern, observed in the four species, suggests that reserves contribute to preserve genetic variation locally. Our study illustrates that we can document key aspects of the genetic variation of marine species and their interaction with seascape factors, space and protection status in multiple species. It stresses the need for a multi-species approach to inform marine conservation planning, opening up new perspectives at the community level. © 2022 The Authors.

Here, we used the Flight Initiation Distances – FID metric to assess how the management strategies, including fishing and tourism reef sites, could distinctively influence the escape behavior of the target reef fish. This work presents the differences in wariness of three reef fish species with a distinctive history of catches by spearfishing, Epinephelus adscensionis, Acanthurus bahianus, and Chaetodon striatus, in a multiple-use Marine Protected Area (MPA) in the Brazilian Northeastern coast. Our findings demonstrate that the protection level has a consistent effect on wariness of the target species, but the use of tourism sites as a conservation strategy to fishing pressure could be controversial. Furthermore, the species-specific traits can clearly express how the risk perception varies among species and can simplify the understanding of flight measure results. Taken together with other data, e.g. quantitative data (biomass, abundance), changes in the fish behavior, such as escape decisions, may add important knowledge to the monitoring of marine protected areas, especially in the Brazilian coast where the effectiveness of these MPAs is often questioned. The use of FID measurements as a management tool could improve the monitoring policies in MPAs, and reveal reefs systems where human activities should be reduced or banned. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,154-162,,,152,,Ocean Coast.

Part of this forest is located in the Tocantins Fossil Trees Natural Monument, which is a Full Protection Conservation Unit in the northeastern part of the Brazilian state of Tocantins. Geologically, the Petrified Forest is part of the Parnaíba Basin, and the studied stems originate from the Permian Motuca Formation. The aim of the present work is to reconstruct aspects of the regional climate during the Permian by using proxy data obtained from the analysis of gymnospermous fossil stems preserved in the Northern Tocantins Petrified Forest. The material analysed comes from 32 gymnospermous fossil wood fragments derived from nine sampling points located inside and outside the park area. In order to determine climatic influence on wood growth, a total number of 682 growth increments were investigated using mean sensibility and annual sensibility analysis. Moreover, thin sections were made and the anatomical details of the growth patterns of the stems were investigated. The results obtained from these analyses allowed the establishment of the presence of growth zones in the gymnospermous fossil stems. Detailed analysis of these growth zones led to the reconstruction of a seasonal climate with periods of high precipitation alternating with periods of more or less severe dryness, probably in a semi-arid palaeoenvironment. This result is in agreement with previous reconstructions for the Northern Tocantins Petrified Forest area, which postulated a kind of monsoonal climate, characterised by marked seasonality, with strong rains and distinct dry periods. © 2015, Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.",,255-264,,2,96,,Palaeobiodiversity Palaeoenvironments,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Verlag,,,,ANATOMY; Brazil; CLIMATE; dendroecology; Dendrology; fossil record; FOSSIL WOOD; Gondwana; GROWTH RINGS; Growth zones; gymnosperm; GYMNOSPERMOUS WOODS; INSIGHTS; mineralization; NORTHEASTERN BRAZIL; Palaeoclimate; paleoclimate; PARANA BASIN; Parnaiba Basin; Parnaíba Basin; PART I; Permian; proxy climate record; reconstruction; regional climate; seasonality; Semi-arid; semiarid region; SOUTHERN-HEMISPHERE; Tocantins,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In Patagonia Argentina, most nature reserves focus their protection objectives on a particular ecosystem, geoform or scenic value, and usually are located in inaccessible areas. However, unique species or assemblages could inhabit less protected ecosystems, areas or habitats, which could be threatened depending of management. In this study, we assessed the conservation value of different ecosystem types and areas (fjords) in Isla de los Estados Provincial Reserve (RPIE, Argentina), using birds as study case. We chose three fjords (east, central and west) and five ecosystems types (forests at low and high elevation, open-lands at low and high elevation, and sea coasts). Bird's assemblage richness, density, biomass, trophic level, migratory status, and use of strata per ecosystems and fjords were characterized in 75 points (3 fjords × 5 ecosystems × 5 replicates) and evaluated using ANOVA and multivariate methods. Also, Shannon (H') and Pielou (J) indices were estimated for fjords and ecosystems. Passerine was the most abundant group, being mainly residents, omnivorous and carnivorous-scavenger, and they were observed mainly flying or in the canopy. Assemblage structure and function varied with ecosystem types, with higher richness and biomass in coasts and open-lands than in other ecosystems, but with greater density in forests. Multivariate analyses showed conspicuous groups for forests and coast sampling units, with significant differences among all ecosystem types except between low and high forests. Also, east fjord significantly differed in density and biomass from the others, but west fjord also differed in structure, function and bird assemblage. We conclude that greater conservation value must be assigned to ecosystem types or areas inhabited by threatened species (as open-lands at high elevation) and highest richness and variety of use of strata (as sea coasts). However, bird assemblage patterns have particularities in less valuable ecosystems and areas, which also justify their importance for conservation, or at least, prescriptions of low impact uses and activities in the management planning. Nature reserves are opportunities to preserve endemic species, habitats or areas of special interest, as low latitude or unique isolated landscape communities, and ecosystems underrepresented in the network of local, regional or world protected areas. © 2019 Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest.",,181-193,,2,20,,Community Ecol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Akademiai Kiado Rt.,,,,Argentina; ASSEMBLAGES; assembly rule; Aves; Avian assemblages; AVIAN DIVERSITY; biodiversity; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; bird; Coasts; community structure; conservation management; conservation planning; conservation status; ecosystem management; endangered species; environmental assessment; fjord; FOREST; forest ecosystem; Forests; HORN BIOSPHERE RESERVE; multivariate analysis; nature reserve; NAVARINO ISLAND; Open-lands; Passeriformes; Patagonia; PATTERNS; protected area; South Patagonia; SPATIAL AUTOCORRELATION; SPECIES RICHNESS; Staten Island [Tierra del Fuego]; terrestrial environment; Tierra del Fuego [(ISG) South America]; Tierra del Fuego [(PRV) Argentina]; TIMBER QUALITY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Novel monitoring approaches are needed to assess the efficacy of management measures, such as dedicated marine protected areas, for the conservation of relict skate populations. Flapper skates possess distinctive dorsal spot patterns, which could potentially be used for individual recognition using photo-identification (photo-ID) approaches. This study assessed the potential of photo-ID as a method for individual recognition of a relict population of skates within a dedicated marine protected area in western Scotland (UK), which has long been targeted by directed recreational angling. A collection of 486 photographs of 373 separate skate capture events from 2011 to 2016, taken with standard mobile phones and compact cameras, was studied using visual pairwise comparison methods to determine number of individuals and recapture rates. Results indicated that adult flapper skates were individually recognizable with a high degree of certainty through comparison of spot patterns, assuming appropriate lighting conditions. A total of 226 individuals were identified, of which 77 (34%) were recaptured at least once. The average recapture interval was 308 days (SE: 29.4 days), with the longest recapture interval to date being 4.4 years. Spot patterns among recaptured tagged or otherwise uniquely identifiable skates were found to remain stable over timescales of months to >1 year. Results indicate that photo-ID, based on photographs sourced through citizen science approaches, can provide a low-cost alternative means of monitoring flapper skate presence and distribution for the purposes of underpinning management decisions. © 2018 The Authors Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,1360-1373,,6,28,,Aquatic Conserv.

The forest of Bemanevika is composed of large patches of fragmented tropical rainforest. Seven forest fragments ranging from 10 to 1 050 ha were surveyed. Two methods were used to collect data along transects orientated from the forest edge toward the interior of the forest: mist-netting and point-counts. In all, 27 non-forest birds and 65 forest birds were recorded at all fragments. According to their distribution along an edge-interior gradient, these 65 forest species are classified into three main groups: 15 (23.1%) edge species, 12 (18.5%) forest interior species and 38 (58.5%) ubiquitous species. Larger forest fragments host more forest bird species than smaller forest fragments. Of the 65 forest birds, 14, including the 12 forest interior species, were not found in the four smaller fragments (10–29 ha). The density of forest interior species was positively correlated to forest fragment size. The general trend was that forest interior species were the most sensitive to forest fragmentation (e.g. Madagascar Serpent-eagle Eutriorchis astur, Pitta-like Ground-roller Atelornis pittoides and Schlegel’s Asity Philepitta schlegeli). Large raptors, terrestrial species and understory species were the first to disappear from the small fragments. Fragmented forests provide habitat for bird species, even for those vulnerable to forest fragmentation, therefore the maintenance of large enough forest fragments should be considered in all conservation strategies aimed to protect forest birds. © 2021 NISC (Pty) Ltd.",,257-269,,4,92,,Ostrich,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Taylor and Francis Ltd.,,,,BIODIVERSITY; biogeographical affinities; edge effects; forest birds density; fragment size dependency; HABITAT EDGES; PATTERNS; RESPONSES; UNDERSTORY BIRDS; USAMBARA MOUNTAINS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This mounting activity has coincided with increasing concerns about sustainability and international attention to ocean governance. Yet, despite growing concerns about exclusionary decision-making processes and social injustices, there remains inadequate attention to issues of social justice and inclusion in ocean science, management, governance and funding. In a rapidly changing and progressively busier ocean, we need to learn from past mistakes and identify ways to navigate a just and inclusive path towards sustainability. Proactive attention to inclusive decision-making and social justice is needed across key ocean policy realms including marine conservation, fisheries management, marine spatial planning, the blue economy, climate adaptation and global ocean governance for both ethical and instrumental reasons.

This study assessed the perceptions of SSF regarding recognitional, procedural and distributional dimensions of social equity using quantitative surveys in 11 MPAs across 6 countries on the Mediterranean Sea. To do so, we developed individual indicators from which we created composite scores for recognitional, procedural, and distributional equity, and a combined social equity score. Overall, descriptive results showed that SSF perceptions of social equity were quite varied but slightly skewed towards positive perceptions. Then, we developed predictive models to analyze the effects of geographic (i.e., MPA and country) and individual (i.e., SSF demographics and characteristics) factors on the composite social equity scores. All social equity scores differed significantly between MPAs. Being an older fisher was associated with a decrease in recognitional equity, while having a higher level of relative wealth or more diversified livelihoods was associated with higher scores for distributional equity. These results point to the need for tailored management actions to improve equity in different MPA sites and for different groups.

Here, we assessed the habitat selection of six coastal wetland bird species (American Bittern, Black-crowned Night Heron, Great Egret, Glossy Ibis, Snowy Egret, Yellow-crowned Night Heron) related to an extreme weather event, Hurricane Sandy. We used Discrete Choice Resource Selection Functions to estimate habitat selection. Results showed species probability of use increased with lower elevation and slope, and closer proximity to marsh, salt marsh, Phragmites, and protected areas. Estimates of marsh dieback from Hurricane Sandy occurred disproportionately in areas with higher probability of species use. Species were observed farther from the coast and at higher elevations in the four breeding seasons after (2013–2016) compared to before (2000–2012) Hurricane Sandy.

Beta diversity can be decomposed into two components: 1—species turnover, the replacement of species by others resulting in a low proportion of shared species; 2—species nestedness—the result of differences in species richness, when a poorer community is a subset of species from a richer community. We aimed to evaluate beta diversity patterns and how they are represented in the network of PAs in southern Brazilian, regarding three forest types: Atlantic Forest s.s., Araucaria Forest, and Seasonal Forest. Beta diversity was partitioned into the turnover and nestedness components. Additionally, we examined spatial patterns of site similarity using distance decay curves. Beta diversity was mainly caused by species turnover (approx. 86%), with only a small contribution of nestedness (approx. 5%) in all three forests types. The patterns of distance decay curves revealed that even at small distances (50–100 km), we found a considerable decrease in similarities, reinforcing turnover patterns. As turnover brought the larger contribution to beta diversity, additional conservation efforts must target an increase in the number of PAs, that should be spread across each one of the regions, to maximize the protection of species diversity. Most of the PAs are currently limited to the eastern region and prioritize the Atlantic Forest s.s. Thus Araucaria Forest and Seasonal Forest should deserve special priority in new conservation actions, as they also contain high levels of species turnover. © 2017, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,1557-1568,,7,26,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Netherlands,,,,Araucaria; Atlantic Forest; biodiversity; Biodiversity conservation; BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION; Brazil; CLIMATE-CHANGE; coniferous forest; conservation planning; DISTANCE DECAY; diversity index; FLORISTIC DIFFERENTIATION; FRAGMENTATION; nestedness; Nestedness; prioritization; PROSPECTS; protected area; replacement; RESERVES; SIMILARITY; Spatial conservation planning; spatial planning; SPECIES COMPOSITION; species richness; turnover; Turnover,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Selection of marine protected networks (MPA) will depend on both the connectivity of concerned species and the habitat quality of individual sites. We explore the relative effect of connectivity and habitat quality on solutions for optimal networks of MPA using eigenvalue perturbation theory and a metapopulation model. Based on analyses of both synthetic networks and realistic connectivities for a sessile invertebrate with planktonic larvae in the Baltic Sea, we show that connectivity is expected to be more efficient than habitat quality as a selection criterion for MPA networks with realistic probabilities of local recruitment. In a second series of analyses we explore the effect of temporal variability of connectivity on the selection of optimal MPA networks. We show that optimal solutions of MPA networks converged when based on 8-10 years of connectivity information, corresponding to the time scale of the North-Atlantic oscillation. In conclusion, this study indicates that connectivity may be more important than habitat quality as selection criterion for MPAs when targeting species with long-distance dispersal that is typical for many marine invertebrates and fish. Our study also shows that connectivity patterns may be relatively consistent in time which suggests that the recent progress in biophysical modelling can offer a framework for optimal selection of MPA networks based on connectivities, which should improve guidelines for the design of functional MPA networks. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.",,105-112,,,240,,Ecol.

Yet many of the worlds MPAs, and especially no-take MPAs, are plagued by poaching and ineffective governance. Using a global dataset on coral reefs as an example, we quantify the potential ecological gains of governing MPAs to increase compliance, which we call the ‘compliance gap’. Using ecological simulations based on model posteriors of joint Bayesian hierarchical models, we demonstrate how increased compliance in no-take MPAs could nearly double target fish biomass (91% increases in median fish biomass), and result in a 292% higher likelihood of encountering top predators. Achieving these gains and closing the compliance gap necessitates a substantial shift in approach and practice to go beyond optimizing enforcement, and towards governing for compliance. This will require engaging and integrating a broad suite of actors, principles, and practices across three key domains: (i)) harnessing social influence, (ii) integrating equity principles, and (iii) aligning incentives through market-based instruments. Empowering and shaping communication between actor groups (e.g., between fishers, practitioners, and policy-makers) using theoretically underpinned approaches from the behavioural sciences is one of the most essential, but often underserved aspects of governing MPAs. We therefore close by highlighting how this cross-cutting tool could be further integrated in governance to bolster high levels of compliance in MPAs. © 2023 The Authors.

While much attention has been paid to evaluating the effects of design aspects (size, location, etc.) in achieving reserve objectives, less emphasis has been placed on the role of stakeholder compliance. Therefore, the first aim of this study was to evaluate the state of compliance literature and examine the methods used to measure compliance in reserves. The state of compliance literature is limited, although publications with compliance information have increased sixfold in the last decade. However, most studies containing compliance information (63%) fail to provide quantitative estimates. Furthermore, most (95%) quantitative estimates of compliance were reported using a single method, which is problematic because each method has biases and limited applicability. Methods used to indicate compliance include (i) direct observation; (ii) indirect observation; (iii) law enforcement records; (iv) direct questioning; (v) expert opinion; and (vi) modelling. Our second aim was to empirically demonstrate the critical role of compliance in reserve outcomes by comparing a mixed-effects model on compliance data synthesized from 63 marine reserves to that of a null model. The model of best fit demonstrated a negative relationship between non-compliance and target species biomass response ratios. Thus, without incorporating any aspects of reserve design, compliance data predicted reserve response ratios of fish biomass. Accordingly, researchers should explore ways to better understand and measure non-compliance. Therefore, future research should triangulate multiple sources of quantitative compliance data collected using standardized techniques and conduct baseline surveys before reserve implementation. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,240-258,,2,16,,Fish Fish.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Compliance measurement; DRUG-USE; FALSE-CONSENSUS; FISH POPULATIONS; FLIGHT INITIATION DISTANCE; FLORIDA-KEYS; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; illegal activity; Illegal activity; law enforcement; Law enforcement; MANAGEMENT; marine reserves; Marine reserves; poaching; Poaching; PROTECTED-AREA NETWORKS; RANDOMIZED-RESPONSE TECHNIQUE; reserve response ratios; Reserve response ratios; SPATIAL-DISTRIBUTION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Although rarely considered, protection of targeted species within these areas may also conserve behaviours (e.g. boldness) that are often the first removed by human exploitation. Here we examine fish behaviour in fished, no-take, and no-entry management zones for a highly targeted reef fish species (coral trout; Plectropomus leopardus) on coral reefs in two regions of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, Australia. Using three behavioural metrics (flight-initiation distance, pre-flight behaviour, and escape trajectories), we demonstrate how protected areas, particularly no-entry zones, can effectively conserve naďve or bold behavioural traits in fish populations. Flight-initiation distance was consistently highest in fished zones, but the effects of protection afforded by no-take and no-entry zones varied by study region. Flight-initiation distance was consistently higher for fish above the minimum legal retention size limit, except in no-entry zones of the southern region. This indicates that no-entry zones may be maintaining near-natural, pre-exploitation behaviour, which could have considerable implications for the genetic and social structures of a highly valuable commercial species. Conservation and fisheries management would therefore benefit from an increased understanding of how fish behaviour can influence population structures, and how these populations may be influenced by fishing and other human interactions. © 2016.",,202-209,,,198,,Biol.

The aim of this study was to use ensemble SDM’s to (a) identify and predict conservation hotspots, (b) assess the current level of protection for O. edulis, and (c) quantify the amount of overlap between the two species where interactions with M. gigas are most likely. Location: Skagerrak, Sweden. Methods: We used data collected by video at depths from 0.5 to 10 m in 436 sites. Models of occurrence and densities >1 m?2 were fitted and assessed using ensemble methods (“biomod2” package). Models of high-density hotspots were used to predict, map, and quantify areal extent of the species in order to assess the degree of overlap with protected areas and the potential for interactions between the two species. Results: Both species were widely distributed in the region. Observations of high-density habitats, mainly occurring at depths of ?3 and 0.5 m for O. edulis and M. gigas, respectively, were found in 4% and 2% of the sites. Models provided useful predictions for both species (AUC = 0.85–0.99; sensitivity = 0.74–1.0; specificity = 0.72–0.97). High-density areas occupy roughly 15 km2 each with substantial overlap between species. 50% of these are protected only by fisheries regulations, 44% are found in Natura 2000 reserves and 6% of the predicted O. edulis enjoys protection in a national park. Main conclusions: Data collection by video in combination with SDM’s provides a realistic approach for large-scale quantification of spatial patterns of marine population and habitats. O. edulis and M. gigas are common in the area, but a large proportion of the most valuable O. edulis habitats are not found in protected areas. The overlap between species suggests that efforts to manage the invasive M. gigas need to be integrated with management actions to conserve the native O. edulis. © 2021 The Authors.

The primary aim of this systematic review was to examine how forest vegetation and invertebrates are affected by manipulation of the grazing/browsing pressure by livestock or wild ungulates. The ultimate purpose was to investigate whether such manipulation is useful for conserving or restoring biodiversity in forest set-asides. Methods: We considered studies of manipulated ungulate herbivory in forests anywhere within the boreal and temperate zones, not only in protected areas but also in production forest. Non-intervention or alternative levels of intervention were used as comparators. Relevant outcomes included abundance, diversity and composition of plants and invertebrates, tree regeneration, and performance of focal/target species. Studies were mainly selected from a recent systematic map of the evidence on biodiversity effects of forest management relevant to protected areas. Additional studies were identified through updated searches online and in bibliographies of existing reviews. Relevant studies were critically appraised, and studies with low or unclear validity were excluded from the review. Quantitative outcomes were extracted from 103 articles, and summary effect sizes were derived by meta-analysis. Results: Most of the 144 studies included in the review had been conducted in North America, Europe or Australia/New Zealand. The intervention most commonly studied was experimental exclusion (or enclosure) of wild and/or domestic ungulates by fencing. Other studies examined culling of wild ungulates or compared forests long grazed by livestock to ungrazed forests. Effects on vegetation and invertebrates were reported in 135 and 23 of the studies, respectively. We found negative responses to herbivory in the abundance of understorey vegetation as a whole, woody understorey and bryophytes, and also in the species richness of woody understorey vegetation, whereas the richness of forbs and bryophytes responded positively. Several effects depended on ungulate origins: Understorey abundance responded negatively to livestock and to ungulates introduced into the wild, but not to native ones. In contrast, understorey species richness responded positively to livestock but not to wild ungulates. The duration and intensity of herbivory had few significant effects on vegetation - exceptions included woody understorey abundance and richness, which decreased with increasing duration and intensity, respectively. Among invertebrates we found negative responses to herbivory in the abundance of lepidopterans and spiders, but no significant effects on species richness. Conclusions: Our review revealed a large body of high-validity experimental studies on impacts of ungulate herbivory in forests. This evidence confirmed that manipulation of such herbivory is often highly influential on tree regeneration and on the abundance, diversity and composition of understorey vegetation. Nevertheless, we also identified important knowledge gaps - we found few studies of boreal areas, long-term herbivory effects, impacts on bryophytes, lichens and invertebrates, and effects of manipulation less radical than total exclusion of ungulates. © 2018 The Author(s).",,,,1,7,,Environ.

The potential for rapid recovery of wild populations is low because females require 12–20 years to reach reproductive maturity and produce few eggs annually. We report on a 34-year mark-recapture study of tortoises initiated in 1979 at the Desert Tortoise Research Natural Area in the western Mojave Desert, California, USA, and provide substantive data on challenges faced by the species. In 1980, the United States Congress designated the Research Natural Area and protected the land from recreational vehicles, livestock grazing, and mining with a wildlife-permeable fence. The 7.77-km2 study area, centered on interpretive facilities, included land both within the Natural Area and outside the fence. We expected greater benefits to accrue to the tortoises and habitat inside compared to outside. Our objectives were to conduct a demographic study, analyze and model changes in the tortoise population and habitat, and compare the effectiveness of fencing to protect populations and habitat inside the fence versus outside, where populations and habitat were unprotected. We conducted surveys in spring in each of 7 survey years from 1979, when the fence was under construction, through 2012. We compared populations inside to those outside the fence by survey year for changes in distribution, structure by size and relative age, sex ratios, death rates of adults, and causes of death for all sizes of tortoises. We used a Bayesian implementation of a Jolly Seber model for mark-recapture data. We modeled detection, density, growth and transition of tortoises to larger size-age classes, movements from inside the protective fence to outside and vice versa, and survival. After the second and subsequent survey years, we added surveys to monitor vegetation and habitat changes, conduct health assessments, and collect data on counts of predators and predator sign. At the beginning of the study, counts and densities for all sizes of tortoises were high, but densities were approximately 24% higher inside the fence than outside. By 2002, the low point in densities, densities had declined 90% inside the fence and 95% outside. Between 2002 and 2012, the population inside the fence showed signs of improving with a 54% increase in density. Outside the fence, densities remained low. At the end of the study, when we considered the initial differences in location, densities inside the fence were roughly 2.5 times higher than outside. The pattern of densities was similar for male and female adults. When evaluating survival by blocks of years, survivorship was higher in 1979–1989 than in 1989–2002 (the low point) and highest from 2002 to 2012. Recruitment and survival of adult females into the population was important for growing the population, but survival of all sizes, including juveniles, was also critical. Major events and activities driving the decline in populations both inside and outside the fence included illegal collecting, upper respiratory tract disease, and hyperpredation by the common raven (Corvus corax) on juvenile tortoises. Other sources of death were gunshots, vehicles, and predation by mammals. Outside the fence, fragmentation and deterioration of habitat was a critical driver. Between the first and last surveys, 2 different ecosystem processes were underway: recovery of vegetation and soils from grazing and vehicles inside the fence and continued deterioration outside the fence. Habitat outside the fence became increasingly denuded of shrubs and fragmented by roads and trails, and habitat fragments increased 50-fold. Outside the fence, biomass of non-native annual plants was higher and the cover of shrubs was lower, a reflection of ongoing deterioration. These changes and losses of habitat resulted in loss of shrub cover and sites for burrows, reduction in preferred food plants, and greater exposure to predators and extremes in temperature. Overall, the tortoise population and habitat inside the fence appeared to benefit from protection and showed signs of recovery at the end of the study. Fencing, control of vehicular access, and removal of livestock grazing were among several recommended management actions for critical habitat in the first recovery plan in 1994. At the end of the study, the Natural Area remained as 1 of 2 fenced, official protected areas for the species in the geographic range. We attribute fencing to continuing higher densities of adults inside the fence compared with outside the fence and promising signs of recovery. Densities of adults at the Natural Area also were 2.3 to 5.5 times higher than in 16 of the 17 Tortoise Conservation Areas (critical habitat units) within the geographic range. © 2020 The Authors.

By means of an adapted Beyond-BACI approach, we compared the short- and long-term patterns of variation in the abundance of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus and the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis at a protected shore (within the Parque Litoral Norte MPA, Portugal) and at three adjacent shores subject to intense harvesting over a decadal interval. Despite the existence of the MPA for more than 30 years, we did not obtain clear evidence of its persistent or recent effectiveness on intertidal species of commercial interest. We suggest the need for refining management options along the northern Portuguese coast, possibly by better enforcing current regulations and reconsidering the present design of protection schemes.

The aim of the study is to identify the abiotic factors that mostly affect distribution and composition of plant dune communities along the coast-to-inland gradient, focusing the attention on sediment grain-size parameters, mineralogy, and dune morphology. The research was carried out on two coastal dune systems belonging to protected areas in the Mediterranean Basin, specifically in Northern and Southern Tuscany (Italy). Grain-size analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, topographic surveys, and floristic data recording were carried out along 11 transects perpendicular to the shoreline; the portion of the beach investigated is comprised within the foreshore and the backdune area. The analyses revealed some differences between the two coastal dune systems in terms of sediment parameters, mineralogy, and dune topography. The differences are mainly ascribed to the physical characteristics of the sites where the surveys were carried out. These data were matched with those provided by the vegetation sampling and then statistically processed by means of methods such as the Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA), which showed that the mean grain-size is the most important abiotic factor that influences the composition of these coastal plant communities. These results might be considered to improve and optimize management and conservation programs for these ecosystems, since nowadays artificial dune reconstruction is a practice frequently used as a form of coastal protection. © Societŕ Geologica Italiana, Roma 2014.",,271-281,,2,133,,Ital.

Assessing conservation achievements in protected areas is of crucial importance with respect to the on-time delivery of international biodiversity conservation targets. However, monitoring data from publicly accessible databases for comparative studies of conservation achievements in the protected areas of the world are very scarce, if not non-existent. At first glance this is surprising because, with regards to protected areas, at least according to well established protected area management guidelines and widely accepted public mandates, a great deal of monitoring work and data gathering is to be conducted. This would imply that data on changes of biodiversity in protected areas could be expected to exist, and the constant progress in information technologies and Web tools engenders hope that some of it might even be available online for the global public. This review article presents the results of an extensive online search and review of existing monitoring data from freely accessible online databases for its use in an assessment of conservation achievements in a larger sample of protected areas. Results show two contrary sides to the status quo of accessible data from the World Wide Web for conservation science: data overkill and data scarcity with poor metadata provision. While ever more research is, in fact, based on open-access online data, such as extrapolations of species ranges used in conservation management and planning, it remains almost impossible to obtain a basic set of information for an assessment of conservation achievements within a larger number of protected areas. This awareness has triggered a detailed discussion about the discrepancies in sharing data at the level of protected areas; mismatching relationships between expected activities in protected areas and the capacity for delivering these requirements are certainly among the main challenges. In addition, the fear of data misuse potentially resulting in harm for nature, careers, and competencies still seems to be a critical barrier strictly controlling the willingness to share data. Various initiatives aimed at tackling technical and cultural obstacles are introduced and discussed to reach the goal of a modern resource management based on adaptive management using digital opportunities of the new millennium for a sustainable global village. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

The presence of the international boundary in these areas poses challenges in the process of Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM). The aim of this paper is to explore the existence, characteristics and the role that local cross-border cooperation plays in transboundary coastal zone management as well as the resulting potentialities of local endogenous development for improving the management and governance of the tourism sector, coastal development, fisheries and marine protected areas in the Albera Marítima (Northwestern Mediterranean). The applied methods included document review, statistical information and semi-structured interviews. The research shows that local agents are not capable of developing a stable cross-border network due to persisting lack of trust, weak joint strategic vision and high competitiveness in sectors like fishery and tourism. Based on particularly interesting initiatives occurred in Albera Marítima and other successful experiences in Mediterranean coastal borderlands, a proposal has been made to implement several measures, including a transboundary integrated coastal plan, the joint observatory of fishery resources and a scientific network platform.

Identification and characterization of vegetation formations is generally conducted at a fine scale using ecological ground surveys, which are limited to small areas. While optical remotely sensed imagery is limited to cloud-free periods, SAR time-series are used more extensively for wetland mapping and characterization using the relationship between distribution of vegetation formations and flood duration. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal number and key dates of SAR images to be classified to map wetland vegetation formations at a 1:10,000 scale. A series of eight dual-polarization TerraSAR-X images (HH/VV) was acquired in 2013 during dry and wet seasons in temperate climate conditions. One polarimetric parameter was extracted first, the Shannon entropy, which varies with wetland flooding status and vegetation roughness. Classification runs of all the possible combinations of SAR images using different k (number of images) subsets were performed to determine the best combinations of the Shannon entropy images to identify wetland vegetation formations. The classification runs were performed using Support Vector Machine techniques and were then analyzed using the McNemar test to investigate significant differences in the accuracy of all classification runs based on the different image subsets. The results highlight the relevant periods (i.e. late winter, spring and beginning of summer) for mapping vegetation formations, in accordance with ecological studies. They also indicate that a relationship can be established between vegetation formations and hydrodynamic processes with a short time-series of satellite images (i.e. 5 dates). This study introduces a new approach for herbaceous wetland monitoring using SAR polarimetric imagery. This approach estimates the number and key dates required for wetland management (e.g. restoration) and biodiversity studies using remote sensing data.

Therefore, population studies are essential to propose status evaluations and new conservation measures. Natural marks present on the animals' bodies are used as an alternative non-invasive method rather than the usual tagging system for individual identification, thus avoiding the need for animal handling. This study aimed to evaluate the population size trend of G. cirratum at the Rocas Atoll Marine Biological Reserve, the only atoll located in the South Atlantic. Data were collected through underwater filming, photo-identification, and visual censuses. Three expeditions were carried out in 2018 and the abundance of sharks was sampled in the inner part of Rocas Atoll Marine Biological Reserve. Sharks were identified individually with the aid of the software Interactive Identification System – Contour (I3S). Based on the re-sightings of identified animals, two capture–recapture estimators of population size were used (Petersen–Bailey; Jolly–Seber). The estimates were then compared to the only previous estimate made 20 years before, which employed the same number of expeditions and estimators. A total of 139 sharks were identified from 444 sightings in 63 h of diving effort. Population estimates varied from 200 to 205 sharks, which are significantly lower than the previous estimate (339–368 sharks) made 20 years ago, suggesting a demographic decline in Southwestern Atlantic populations. Population studies and movement of G. cirratum are essential to inform the implementation of additional protective measures, including the establishment of protected corridors between marine protected areas and the recovery of G. cirratum populations. It is crucial to consider that the distribution of individuals may extend beyond the borders of the non-take marine protected area. Therefore, the observed decline in the local population could potential indicate a broader decline across the Southwestern Atlantic. © 2023 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,845-852,,8,33,,Aquatic Conserv.

This research provides a brief review of the practice and an in-depth case study from southeast Nicaragua. In 2019, 86 interviews and 5 focus groups were conducted in remote communities in the Indio Maíz Biological Reserve (IMBR) and nearby surrounding area and combined with 4 years of local Indigenous Rama and Afrodescendent Kriol community forest ranger data. Forest rangers and 74% of interviewees reported that fishing with pesticides occurs in their communities, including both inside the IMBR and in the nearby surrounding area. The practice is primarily used by illegal settlers, and not by Rama and Kriol communities who have rights to the land in the IMBR. It entails the release of liquid pesticides in water or mixing powdered pesticides with corn flour and using the mixture as bait. Of seven chemicals reported, Cypermethrin, Deltamethrin, and Aluminum Phosphide were most common. The use of ichthyotoxic woody plants was more rarely reported. Habitats targeted ranged from swift headwaters to slow pools in small creeks to larger rivers, depending on target species. Main uses reported for the catch were food for family, bait to catch larger fish, and for sale. The main motivation was increased catch efficiency. Many interviewees attributed stomach issues, diarrhea, cough, convulsions, and miscarriage to exposure to poisoned river water. Twenty-five interviewees blamed poisoned rivers for livestock miscarriages or death. Severe local losses of fish and shrimp populations were reported. Rama and Kriol interviewees describe the practice as a threat to their river-based food security. Despite its illegality, no study participant knew a case of pesticide fishing that had been prosecuted. This destructive fishing practice has significant implications for conservation of the intact river systems of the primary rainforests of southeast Nicaragua, and to the local traditional fisheries they support. © 2020 by the authors.

A total of 100 successful comparison tows were completed. All species captured were weighed for total weight. Haddock, cod, and the majority of the flounders were measured. The Eliminator Trawl™ significantly reduced the catch of stocks of concern including cod, yellowtail flounder (Limanda ferruginea), winter flounder (Pseudopleuronectes americanus), witch flounder (Glyptocephalus cynoglossus), and American plaice (Hippoglossoides platessoides).

This, in turn, may provide invaluable information for setting ecologically coherent networks of marine protected areas (MPAs) in which protected communities are potentially interrelated and can mutually sustain against environmental perturbations. However, field studies investigating changes in ?-diversity patterns at a range of spatial scales and in relation to disturbance are scant, limiting our understanding of how spatial ecological connections among marine communities may affect their recovery dynamics. We carried out a manipulative experiment simulating a strong physical disturbance on subtidal rocky reefs at several locations spanning >1000 km of coast in the Adriatic Sea (Mediterranean Sea) and compared ?-diversity patterns and decay of similarity with distance and time by current transport between undisturbed and experimentally disturbed macrobenthic assemblages to shed light on connectivity processes and scales involved in recovery. In contrast to the expectation that very local-scale processes, such as vegetative regrowth and larval supply from neighboring undisturbed assemblages, might be the major determinants of recovery in disturbed patches, we found that connectivity mediated by currents at larger spatial scales strongly contributed to shape community reassembly after disturbance. Across our study sites in the Adriatic Sea, ?-diversity patterns suggested that additional protected sites that matched hotspots of propagule exchange could increase the complementarity and strengthen the ecological connectivity throughout the MPA network. More generally, conditional to habitat distribution and selection of sites of high conservation priority (e.g., biodiversity hotspots), setting network internode distance within 100–150 km, along with sizing no-take zones to cover at least 5 km of coast, would help enhance the potential connectivity of Mediterranean subtidal rocky reef assemblages from local to large scale. These results can help improve conservation planning to achieve the goals of promoting ecological connectivity within MPA networks and enhancing their effectiveness in protecting marine communities against rapidly increasing natural and anthropogenic disturbances. © 2023 The Authors.

Although the outcomes of protection in enhancing marine biodiversity and restoring populations of exploited species are widely recognized, the putative effect of MPAs in increasing the resilience of marine communities and ecosystems is still underexplored. In this study, long-term data from a no-take area of a Mediterranean MPA and unprotected locations were used to investigate the effects of full protection on the temporal stability of sessile assemblages on shallow subtidal rocky reefs. Results highlighted that assemblages within the no-take area exhibited a more consistent structure over 20 years of study, whereas a significantly larger temporal variability characterized assemblages at the unprotected locations. Reduced levels of human pressure and stabilizing processes related to the re-establishment of the integrity of trophic networks within the MPA could underlie the observed patterns. Assessing whether MPAs may improve the ability of marine communities to absorb disturbance, from local to large scale sources, is essential to ascertain their contribution to future adaptive conservation strategies in the face of global change. This study provided evidence that MPAs, if well managed, can represent an effective tool to smooth fluctuations in the structure of marine communities, thus potentially reducing their vulnerability to natural and human-driven environmental changes. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,274,,Estuar.

Consequently, Africa’s rich biodiversity is under threat, yet only 19% of the landscape and 17% of the seascape are under any form of protection. To effectively address this issue and align with the Convention on Biological Diversity’s ambitious ‘30 by 30’ goal, which seeks to protect 30% of the world’s land and oceans by 2030, substantial funding and conservation measures are urgently required. In response to this critical challenge, as scientists and conservationists working in Africa, we propose five recommendations for future directions aimed at enhancing biodiversity conservation for the betterment of African society: (i) accelerate data collection, data sharing and analytics for informed policy and decision-making; (ii) innovate education and capacity building for future generations; (iii) enhance and expand protected areas, ecological networks and foundational legal frameworks; (iv) unlock creative funding channels for cutting-edge conservation initiatives; and (v) integrate indigenous and local knowledge into forward-thinking conservation strategies. By implementing these recommendations, we believe Africa can make significant strides towards preserving its unique biodiversity, while fostering a healthier society, and contributing to global conservation efforts.

At present, little is known about their habitat preferences and how this may impact on their abundance from fishing pressure. This study aimed to investigate how the abundance of this octopus and their potential den sites differed between three areas of Rodrigues lagoon, Mauritius which were subjected to differing levels of fishing pressure and in which other marine species competed for the same space. A series of surveys over two months was conducted to measure octopus numbers, counted holes and abundance of selected invertebrates in 1000 m2 belt transects, In total, 503 holes were counted that would be suitable for octopuses, and 17 octopuses were observed within the holes. A highly fished lagoon area, contained the most potential den holes. The other organisms found in the counted holes were fish, including eels, urchins and holothurians. I attribute the seemingly low abundance of octopus compared to previous surveys overall to the time of year and the lack of suitable habitat within these areas. Octopus abundance throughout the lagoon is low despite it being within a Marine Protected Area and does not follow the expected patterns of abundance when subjected to differing levels of fishing pressure, that is, it was expected that more would be found in the best protected area. Application of improved knowledge of octopus biology and habitat preferences could provide better management plans for their protection. © 2021 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.",,2961-2977,,45-46,54,,J.

Biodiversity represents the core of the natural capital, and as such needs to be quantified and followed over time. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are a major tool for biodiversity conservation at sea. Monitoring of both species and habitat diversity in MPAs is therefore mandatory and must include both inventory and periodic surveillance activities. In the case of inventories, the ideal would be to census all species and all habitats, but while the latter goal can be within reach, the former seems unattainable. Species inventory should be commeasured to investigation effort, while habitat inventory should be based on mapping. Both inventories may profit from suitability spatial modelling. Periodic surveillance actions should privilege conspicuous species and priority habitats. Efficient descriptor taxa and ecological indices are recommended to evaluate environmental status. While it seems obvious that surveillance activities should be carried out with regular recurrence, diachronic inventories and mapping are rarely carried out. Time series are of prime importance to detect marine ecosystem change even in the absence of direct human impacts. © 2022 by the authors.

Aim: We aimed to characterise the periphytic diatom community (Bacillariophyta) in a protected area at the Upper Paraná River floodplain considering the importance of tributaries as a source of propagules. The purpose of this study was to understand the influence of the tributaries in the periphytic diatom community (Bacillariophyta) in a protected area at the Upper Paraná River floodplain. We expect that species present in the main river channel (mainly in the last stretch) would be a subset of the community present in the tributaries. Methods: The study area is located in the last non-dammed stretch of the Paraná River in this floodplain, with the contribution of several tributaries. Sampling was performed in 2014 in two tributaries and three sites at the Paraná River main channel, and the periphytic material was obtained from petioles of the aquatic macrophyte Eichhornia azurea (Sw.) Kunth. Results: We identified 115 diatom taxa. Higher values of species richness were registered in the tributaries, and higher densities in the tributaries and at sampling sites under the direct influence of the tributaries. We also observed a higher similarity between the tributaries, which are located in the preserved side of the floodplain. The results of beta diversity showed that closer sites had lower values, and that the species turnover was the component more important in this floodplain. Conclusion: In this way, these results reinforce the importance of tributaries mainly on the algae establishment and development reflected in the density of species. It demonstrates that sites in preserved area present a higher species richness and can serve as a pool of propagules for downstream environments. © 2017, Sociedade Brasileira de Limnologia.

To maintain the sustainable exploitation of this species, periodical large-scale population assessments are essential. Because of the heterogeneous distribution of these populations in aggregates, together with the difficulties associated with sampling (i. e., access to rocky reefs, wave exposure, high tides, etc.), there is a lack of studies in this regard. In light of these constraints, the coverage, biomass, and available stock of gooseneck barnacle were first estimated using a novel semiquantitative method along a 215-km long coast at 10 fishing zones and three tidal levels. This study contributed to the first assessment of the distribution variability of gooseneck barnacle in the Cantabria region (N Spain), as the first step toward a long-term monitoring goal. The proposed method is based on a general coverage (GC) estimation, by means of (1) quantitative coverage measurements on quadrats (50 cm350 cm) located along vertical transects covering the intertidal bandwidth and corrected by tidal level bandwidths, (2) semiquantitative coverage estimates in larger areas, including 5 m on either side of the quadrats along the transect. Biomass samples were collected at each sampling point by scraping the 50 cm350 cm quadrat and fresh weight of the samples was measured. This method arrives at the biomass estimates by means of a power regression model for the coverage-biomass relationship. The population distribution pattern along the coast was also explored separately, by commonly used (1) quantitative coverage estimates in quadrats with no bandwidth correction (sample coverage, SC) and (2) semiquantitative estimates, as in the proposed method (transect coverage, TC), both of which included biomass sampling. Biomass and standing stocks values obtained using GC were lower and consumed less sampling time than those obtained by TC, and particularly SC. The results suggest that the proposed method might be suitable for the assessment of P. pollicipes populations in large coastal areas, as it potentially avoids stock overestimation by detecting the spatial distribution heterogeneity and reduces the sampling time.",,787-797,,3,36,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000419555700028,,,,,,,coverage; FISHERY; gooseneck barnacle; MANAGEMENT; MARINE RESERVE; NORTHERN SPAIN; Pollicipes pollicipes; PORTUGAL; PROTECTION; RESERVE BASQUE COUNTRY; sampling method; SHELLFISHERY; SIZE; spatial distribution heterogeneity; stock assessment,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In this article, we assess social preferences for ecosystem services in a biodiversity hotspot in central Chile. We use a consultative case study to ask local stakeholders (n = 70) from the Campana Peńuelas Biosphere Reserve to identify the most important ecosystem services the area provides for them and inquire about the perceived vulnerability of the services to changes in the future. We also explore the association between the perceived importance of ecosystem services and the sociodemographic and cultural characteristics of the respondents, which allows us to identify contrasting stakeholder perceptions of different ecosystem services. The most important services for local actors were the drinking water, fresh air and climate change control, genetic pool of plant communities in central Chile, and educational value. From the perspective of local actors, the services that could be threatened by negative changes in the future in terms of their provision included the possibilities of developing conservation activities focused on iconic threatened animal and plant species, water regulation, food from agriculture, and drinking water. Contrasting perceptions about the importance of ecosystem services emerged among stakeholders. While small farmers and members of local organizations attributed higher importance values to provisioning services, scientists and rangers and administrators of protected areas as well as teachers, NGO members and local government employees attributed more importance to the regulating and cultural services associated with threatened species.

This fact hampers effective management of waters with respect to navigation, water quality, fisheries and tourism.The current state of communities living by the Vistula Lagoon is rather difficult. Economy of the southern part of the lagoon has been suffering persisting unemployment, the northern part performs better but not by using the lagoon but due to attractive Baltic Sea beaches along the Vistula Lagoon Spit, that draw numerous tourists during the summer season. Next, the entire Polish part of the Vistula Lagoon is under NATURA 2000 and Birds Directive. This poses great problems to fishermen and potential spatial development investors. Many investments are stopped or hampered by NATURA 2000 restrictions. Also, fishermen lose their fishing potential on behalf of very large population of cormorants who can eat more fish than fishermen catch. Laws and regulations are not adjusted to the existing situation and lead to overuse of fish stocks or destruction of fish spawning areas.Given the transboundary dimension of the Vistula Lagoon it became a case study for investigations of the FP7 LAGOONS project. It includes a socio-economic workpackage, aimed at identification of management problems raised by various stakeholders and end-users of the lagoon. For this purpose a series of interviews was carried out with representatives of local communities living and working on the Polish side of the Vistula Lagoon. The purpose of those interviews was to identify problems and conflicts concerning local environment, management of the area and legislation from the perspective of 'ordinary' people. Unfortunately, similar interviews on the Russian side of the lagoon were not executed, due to general financial constraints faced by non-EU partners participating in the FP7 EU program project.The respondents highlighted several key problems that prevent prosperity and sustainability of the lagoon and add to persisting relative poverty of the region. Primarily, they pointed out to bad quality of water in the lagoon, despite recent improvements in terms of erection of many new waste water treatment plants. Then, they indicated poor touristic and harbor infrastructure on both the northern and southern parts of the lagoon. Next, they signaled bureaucratic difficulties related to ecological restrictions imposed by NATURA 2000 requirements. This included the strain on the fishing sector by very large colony of cormorants. Finally, they discussed the problem of free navigation and access to the lagoon by Polish and non-Russian vessels. Nevertheless, the respondents believe that the lagoon possesses high economic potential, which must be harnessed to begin region's economic recovery and first steps toward sustainable development. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,24-34,,PA,101,,Ocean Coast.

With this in mind, the aim of this study was to conduct a comprehensive ichthyological survey of several lakes in the Wolin National Park (Poland). The study was conducted in Domys?awskie and Gardno lakes and the anthropogenic Stara Kredownia reservoir. Each fishing exercise was conducted using benthic nets over a 12 h period. The fish caught were measured and weighed, and the species identified. Shannon-Wiener (H) and Simpson biodiversity indices were determined. The catch comprised a total of 4580 fish (of which 4391 were caught in Domys?awskie Lake) belonging to 15 species, with a combined weight of 98,165 g. In general, the most prevalent species were non-predatory fish: roach (Rutilus rutilus), freshwater bream (Abramis brama), white bream (Blicca bioerkna), bleak (Alburnus alburnus), and rudd (Scardinius erythrophthalmus). Individually, perch (Perca fluviatilis) and roach (Rutilus rutilus) were the most abundant species. Ichthyofauna diversity varied greatly between the studied water bodies, with 15 species found in Domys?awskie Lake and only 6 species in Gardno Lake. In Stara Kredownia Reservoir, no fish were caught, but amphibians were observed, such as great crested newts (Triturus cristatus) and common newts (Lissotriton vulgaris).

The Lake Eyre (1.1%), Murray-Darling (0.73%), Tanami-Timor Sea Coast (0.71%) and the Carpentaria Coast (0.55%) drainage divisions have more wetlands, also reflected in the distributions among states and territories. Ramsar sites and wetlands in protected areas were generally biased towards the southern continent. Overall representation of mapped wetlands was good for lacustrine (40.6%) and estuarine (34.4%), fair for riverine (16.8%), but inadequate for palustrine (10.8%) wetlands. Within drainage divisions, representation varied considerably, with shortfalls from the Aichi target of 17%. Agriculture, urbanisation, pollution and invasive species have degraded or destroyed wetlands, particularly in the developed south-east, south-west and north-east of the continent. Water resource developments, primarily the building of dams, diversion of water and development of floodplains, seriously threaten Australian wetlands, with all threats exacerbated by climate change impacts of rising sea levels and high temperatures. Management and policy for wetlands is dependent on data on distribution, type and extent of wetlands, a key national constraint. Some States are well advanced (e.g. Queensland) and others lack any comprehensive data on the distribution of wetlands. Mitigation of increasing development (e.g. northern Australia) will be critical for conservation, along with increased representativeness in protected areas and restoration, particularly with environmental flows. © CSIRO 2016.",,116-129,,2,22,,Pac.

Most protected areas in Africa afforded minimal conservation efforts are poorly assessed and increasingly faced with threats, making effective conservation of wildlife species within challenging. We used road transect surveys to investigate the environmental and anthropogenic variables that determine the abundance of two sympatric antelope (Gerenuk gazelle, [Litocranius walleri] and Grant's gazelle, [Nanger granti]) in Lake Natron partially protected ecosystem in northern Tanzania to improve conservation of these species. Fitting the data with a Quasi-Poisson GLM, we found habitat type, landscape elevation, season and tree cuts were the most important predictors of species abundance for both species. Gerenuk and Grant's gazelle were more abundant in grassland and both tended to avoid degraded patches and areas closer to previous hunting sites, suggesting that habitat loss and hunting is having a top down impacts on the abundance and distribution of these species. Further, both species tended to avoid areas with water points especially during the dry season and foraged more on lowland sites perhaps to avoid being targeted by hunters. Our findings strongly suggest that maintaining habitat quality by minimising human activities such as tree cuts and hunting may improve conservation of antelopes in this fragile ecosystem. © 2025 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,,,1,63,,Afr.

Yet, few of these species have the temporal change in their range documented and quantified, particularly within a potentially informative context of a long period of botanical study. Aim: Here, we used Roussea simplex a mono-specific genus endemic to Mauritius, itself an island with long botanical history and advanced habitat destruction extent, to investigate how the distribution and population of this model oceanic island plant changed through time. Methods: All known localities and population size estimates were compiled from published literature, herbarium specimens, surveys and personal communications to estimate changes in population size, extent of occurrence and area of occupancy and investigate main distribution patterns. Results: Roussea simplex survives in nine high elevation sites. Since the 1930s, its range halved relative to its maximum known distribution and its population size decreased much faster than direct habitat loss would predict. It now qualifies as Endangered according to the IUCN Red List categories. Conclusions: Even in an extremely deforested island, endemic plant population decline may be driven more by diminishing habitat quality than diminishing habitat extent. This renders habitat protection alone insufficient, therefore addressing ecological interactions is vital to stem population decline. © 2017 Botanical Society of Scotland and Taylor & Francis.",,293-302,,4,10,,Plant Ecol.

Fostering trust and collaboration among diverse stakeholder groups is, therefore, a primary goal for natural resource conservation. One tool often used to understand stakeholder relationships and to foster collaborative conservation is social network analysis (SNA), a method that identifies patterns in social relationships among members of a population using networks and graph theory (Scott 2017). Through an explanatory sequential mixed-methods approach, this study applied SNA to better understand social dynamics among six stakeholder groups associated with Utah’s Bonneville Salt Flats (Bonneville; USA). We sought to (1) build social network models (i.e., sociograms) depicting Bonneville-related social interactions among stakeholders, (2) identify potentially influential individuals (i.e., key players) in Bonneville’s stakeholder network; and engage these key players in (3) ‘member-checking’ social interaction trends gathered during the data collection year, and (4) discussing perceptions of their network’s influential social dynamics. Sharing SNA data and sociograms through semi-structured qualitative interviews with key players verified four seasons’ worth of social interaction trends within and among Bonneville stakeholder groups. These conversations also evoked key players’ reflection on social power dynamics, social network evolution, the influence of research into the Bonneville social network, and introspection about social connections therein. These emergent themes support applying SNA and qualitative interviews with key players in natural resource social networks to yield valuable information for managers who seek to foster collaboration while avoiding or abating resource-related conflict among stakeholder groups. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.",,288-304,,2,69,,Environ.

One characteristic of MPA networks is that MPAs are spatially configured such that they provide the greatest protection possible for multiple species. Yet, it can be difficult to determine optimal MPA network arrangement due to insufficient information on multi-species habitat use and their dispersal abilities as larvae and adults. Here, we propose a modelling approach that involves determining the optimal MPA network configuration for multiple species assemblages, located at different depths and having differing dispersal abilities. As a case study, we applied this methodology in Pacific Canada where we identified optimal MPA configurations to protect 40 species having different pelagic larval duration (proxy for dispersal) at 3 different depth class groupings (proxy for habitat use). Taken together, we found dispersal ability had a larger impact on optimal MPA network configuration for species spending a long time as larvae compared to species spending a short time as larvae. We identify which 10% of this area is most important to conserve to maintain connectivity for a multi-species MPA network and show that half of these sites remain important to conserve in the future as climate change alters connectivity patterns. This model for MPA network design is feasible with limited data which is beneficial for application to other regions and ecosystems. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,,,6,168,,Mar.

In this account, procedures for selecting SSSIs are outlined, and the representation of habitats and species in different taxonomic groups which qualify 731 SSSIs notified in Wales (in November 1994) are summarized. Biological SSSIs occupy approximately 9.6% of the total area of Wales. There are significant differences in the numbers and sizes of sites characteristic in the uplands (few large), lowlands (many small) and coast (intermediate). Over 70% of the biological SSSIs have more than one qualifying feature. Most sites (663, 90%) have been selected for one or more habitats, and many sites (328, 45%) have particular species attributes. In relation to their total extent in Wales, some habitats (including ombrotrophic peatland, dwarf-shrub heathland, rich fen and sand dune) have greater proportional representation in SSSIs than others (such as upland grassland, woodland and scrub). These differences reflect conservation priorities for Welsh habitats which are related to the wider British context. As expected, birds and vascular plants contribute to notification of a greater number of sites than other groups; invertebrates, lichens and bryophytes qualify in some sites and require further evaluation in others; except for bats, mammals are comparatively poorly represented as special features. Birds qualify many of the largest SSSIs in Wales (breeding assemblages in the uplands and overwintering wildfowl and waders in estuaries). Possibilities for future refinement of the SSSI series are considered.

Banning fishing activities within MPAs enhances the robustness of food-web dynamics and thus increases trophic resilience. Ecosystem function indicators, such as mean trophic level, are increasingly applied in conservation management. Stable isotope analysis is a common tool in trophodynamic studies as it provides information about food sources and trophic level within food webs. In contrast to the traditional top-down approaches in conservation management (mainly for fisheries), this study focuses on bottom-up responses to protection according to the target species in regional small-scale fisheries. The present study aimed to examine how MPA status affects trophodynamics in the rocky reefs of the Illas Atlánticas Marine-Terrestrial National Park (Galicia, NW Spain). Results showed no differences between inside and outside the MPA in species stable isotopic signatures or trophic level. However, these results should be considered with caution due to some limitations in the study design (small number of sites per location, biogeographic differences associated with the island nature of the MPA, or seasonal variability). Nevertheless, the lax fishing management, the lack of proper implementation (the MPA was established in 2002 without a management plan until 2019), and the small size of the studied MPA may result in ineffective conservation outcomes that could have been reflected in the stable isotopic content of the food web. The large number of “paper park” MPAs existing worldwide are not only detrimental to the perception of marine protection, but also provide poor protection of marine ecosystems. Subject to further studies accounting for both environmental and management factors on stable isotope signatures, trophic interactions can form a cost-effective tool for monitoring MPA effectiveness. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,790,,Sci.

Both have a multiple use approach to space and they can reach common ground in terms of the objective of sustainable forestry that reconciles production of a resource with achieving a satisfactory ecological state. However, in the Natura 2000 network of sites, achieving a satisfactory state of conservation is a duty to achieve a given result which compels foresters to pay significantly more attention to biodiversity considerations in the various silvicultural planning documents, which are a priori suitable tools, and then to concentrate on implementing management measures. The goal of ""favourable conservation status"" is complex and difficult to characterise. Evaluation must be performed both at the scale of the site and of the biogeographic area. Indeed, the ecological functionality of forest habitats (which incorporate ""favourable conservation status"" criteria) and the effects of climate change of forests cannot be adequately taken on board without a dynamic vision of the network of sites. While some actions that favour biodiversity are ""easily"" reconciled with forest output objectives, others are more demanding. Drawing these two policies together may in those cases be achieved by a continuum of solutions and requires technical or financial support for local players. On sites where the stakes are high, as illustrated by the case of the Compičgne forest, forest management furthermore requires intensified and ongoing consultations to ensure that it is socially acceptable. In a rapidly changing society which finds it difficult to reconcile production and protection objectives, foresters must adopt new attitudes to support the policy choice that, without excluding appropriate use of the status of protected area, posits multiple-use management as still the best means for managing the Natura 2000 network that Includes 18% of French forests.",,527-537,,5,63,,Revue Forestiere Francaise,Le réseau Natura 2000: Un défi pour la gestion multifonctionnelle des foręts,,,,,,,French,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Biodiversity; Climate change; Complex networks; Conservation; Ecological networks; Ecology; Favourable conservation status; Forestry; Multiple use management; Natura 2000 networks; Natural environments; Seasonal Variation; State of conservations; Sustainable forest management; Sustainable forestry,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In protected areas, legislation restricts the population's access to natural food resources, which might have an impact on their welfare. Objective. To assess the contribution of the individual use of natural resources to nutritional status in the rural population of the Gamba Complex of Gabon. Methods. Four villages were selected to represent the rural population. All households were invited to participate, and 95% agreed. In each of the two major seasons, data were collected from all individuals (n = 637) in these 95 households during a 7-day period using a weighed food-consumption survey, observations, interviews, and anthropometric measures. Results. Among children 5 to 9 years of age (n = 82) and adolescents (n = 169), their use of natural resources was the best predictor of nutritional status (explaining 8% of the variance), mainly via its contribution to the achievement of nutrient requirements. The use of natural resources was not a predictor for children 6 to 23 months (n = 28) or 24 to 59 months of age (n = 63), where the best predictors were access to care (26%) and health status (15%), respectively. Household food security predicted nutritional status in women caregivers (n = 96), although negatively. Conclusions. Natural resources contribute to the nutritional status of children 5 to 9 years of age and adolescents but not of other groups. The intrahouse-hold allocation of food, particularly of natural food resources, needs to be investigated to better appreciate the contribution of natural resources to the population's well-being. Women seem particularly vulnerable.

At higher temperatures in dry conditions it is much harder or even impossible to find reptiles. Knowledge of typical activity patterns and microhabitats for different species helps enormously in finding them; we provide information for adders, smooth snakes, and sand lizards. In contrast, the survey guidelines of the Federal Highway Research Institute state “22–30 °C, no rain”. Some of the German Natura 2000 monitoring guidelines also give unfavourable procedures in practice. This is particularly problematic for some habitat assessments, additionally typical threats are not mentioned. Both guidelines are widely used in many German projects, and may have a significant impact on both the collection of records and subsequent protection of reptiles.

Within this context, the UN General Assembly resolved in 2015 to begin negotiations on an international legally-binding instrument to conserve and protect biodiversity in ABNJ, with the negotiations framed by four issues: (1) marine genetic resources, including questions on the sharing of benefits; (2) measures such as area-based management tools, including marine protected areas; (3) environmental impact assessments; (4) capacity building and the transfer of marine technology. Yet our analysis demonstrates that least developed countries (LDCs) and small island developing states (SIDS) are significantly under-represented in regional and international meetings on such issues, while the authorship of academic literature on these topics is dominated to an unusual extent by Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) member states (97%). Statistical analysis of delegation statements delivered during the first round of negotiations following the UN General Assembly resolution also illustrates that the interests of OECD member states differ substantially from LDCs and SIDS, suggesting that imbalanced representation has the potential to result in skewed negotiations. Moreover, the restriction on negotiating parties not to undermine the mandate of existing organizations limits their maneuverability, and may hamper progress toward achieving ambitious time-bound commitments to promote sustainable resource use and reduce inequality (e.g., under the Sustainable Development Goals and Aichi Targets). With ABNJ covering half the world's surface, self-interested compliance with new regulations is the most promising pathway to conservation and sustainable use, yet remains unlikely unless states feel their views, concerns and best interests have been reflected in the negotiated agreement. © 2016 Blasiak, Pittman, Yagi and Sugino.",,,,NOV,3,,Front.

Using two North Sea prohibited trawling areas (PTAs) established > 80 years ago, social (fishers' perceptions), management (fishing effort and compliance) and ecological (fish abundance and size) data were combined to assess the PTAs against their primary societal (conflict resolution) and secondary ecological (stock protection) objectives. Fishers perceived that the PTAs resolved conflicts between static and mobile gear sectors, despite evidence of non-compliance. However, few fishers perceived that they personally benefited from the PTAs. Fish abundance and size data from baited traps (BT) and video (BV) provided no evidence of PTA effects, but trawling effort was a significant predictor of BT fish abundance data and improved the model of BV fish abundance data. The absence of PTA effects on fish is attributable to non-compliance, the high mobility of the fish involved and their continued exploitation within the PTAs using static gear. This points to the need for greater understanding of the behaviour of fishers in relation to closures. The study also highlights the challenges of quantifying possible fishery benefits of small temperate closed areas and questions whether widely advocated fishery benefits may have enhanced initial support, but failure to deliver them may erode faith in such closures as a fisheries management tool. © Copyright Foundation for Environmental Conservation 2012.",,237-247,,3,39,,Environ.

We employed a signature policy instrument of American historic preservation, the National Register of Historic Places (National Register), as a context to both evaluate and ultimately recognize these connections through public policy at California’s famed Malibu surfing area. The Malibu Historic District is the first National Register listing centered on surfing history and the first continental United States surfing area protected for its cultural and historic significance. This model of surf break protection: (1) is explicitly site-specific, (2) aims to not just consider historic significance but secure specific legal protections and provisions because of it, (3) places surfing within the set of claims regarding historical, cultural, and economic significance, and (4) secures protections based directly on significance. The analysis of natural sites through frameworks such as the National Register, as a rationale for other surf breaks and a qualifying step for additional protections at Malibu, is well-suited to California’s particular coastal resource management environment. © 2021 The Author(s).

Goals and objectives for personal interpretation should be consistent among staff to ensure that planning and delivery are effective in achieving targeted outcomes. 'the aim of this study was to assess how the outcome priorities for, and resources used by, front-line interpreters (employees who deliver personal interpretation programs) changed over the course of one season. Staff goals are also influenced by agency goals and agency support. We were interested in how park agency legislation and management goals were aligned with front-line staff goals and how the agency supported (or did not support) staff in achieving those outcomes. Front-line interpreters from Alberta Parks completed in-person questionnaires during May 2018 (time 1), describing their priorities for interpretive outcomes, perceived trends, resources used, opportunities, barriers, and demographics. Following the delivery of personal interpretation in 11 provincial parks across Alberta during the May to September 2018 park visitation season, the same interpreters completed a follow-up survey between October 2018 and January 2019 (time 2) to understand if and why those responses changed. Respondents were asked to rate their priorities for six main outcomes of personal interpretation. The top outcomes at time 1 were visitor enjoyment, connections to place, and learning. At time 2, learning and enjoyment priorities declined; attitudes, behavioral change, connections to place, and positive memories did not change as desired outcomes. When asked which of the six outcomes were most important, respondents indicated connections to place, positive memories, and enjoyment most often (but there were no changes from time 1 to time 2). As for resources used in guiding content and strategic decisions in delivering personal interpretation programs, the importance of park legislation and park finances declined; the importance of the other resources did not change. When asked what organizational factors helped them be successful (or unsuccessful), staff relied overwhelmingly on their immediate team, including their supervisors and fellow interpreters. However, responses from time 2 suggested that respondents felt in need of more training, more time to prepare new and innovative programs, and more support from upper-level managers and their agency. This research can help inform park practitioner efforts to understand how interpretive priorities change over time and what resources arc important for interpreters. Park agency managers can use these results to hire, train, and nurture front-line interpreters, with a goal of improving the impact of personal interpretation programs.",,,,2,40,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000841018900001,,,,,,,ALIGNMENT; ATTITUDES; BALANCED SCORECARD; CONSERVATION; EMPLOYEES; GOAL; goals; human resources; Interpretation; organizational management; outcomes; PERCEPTIONS; planning; PROGRAM; protected area,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The health of Bali's marine ecosystems has declined in recent decades, and this is thought to be due to threats from climate change, destructive fishing practices, pollution, outbreaks coral eating invertebrates, coral disease and unsustainable tourism. As a response, multiple conservation strategies have been introduced by the island's communities, non-government organisations and governments, with the aim of preventing further decline, as well as restoring already degraded coral reefs. This literature review provides an in-depth analysis of the tools used to conserve Bali's coral reefs, and compares them to those used in other countries. In light of international ‘best practice’ in coral reef conservation, this review makes suggestions on how Bali could better conserve its coral reef ecosystems. These include (1) increasing its designation of official Marine Protected Areas (MPAS) and strengthening management of existing ones, (2) creating an MPA network, (3) substantially reducing marine plastic pollution, (4) continuing artificial reef construction in degraded habitats, (5) continuing to develop Bali as an ecotourism destination, (6) increasing engagement in global science to inform marine conservation decision-making, and (7) developing more marine monitoring programmes. © 2022 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,67,,J.

We observe that while the measures taken by the State, since 1949, show a growing commitment to sustainable management of the region, there are limitations in the design and implementation of concrete actions for their protection. Some possible reasons the tools have proven to be ineffective are: there has been no consistency between the goals of fisheries and conservation sectors; the decrees are not clear on how they will achieve success; the fishers have not been sufficiently or appropriately informed about the harm done by their work practices and they only respond to their needs and interests; there is not enough honest inspection and surveillance, so illegal and improper practices occur. The case of totoaba has been handled in a way that is clearly ineffective, because the instruments have focused on the protection of adults without regard to juveniles.

This type of marine protected area (MPA) allows traditional fishing to a certain extent. At present, 90% of the total area of the MPAs in the Philippines is considered partially protected, but their effectiveness in terms of conservation has received little attention. Thus, we evaluated the potential effectiveness of conservation in partially protected areas by comparing the species richness and abundance of commercially important fishes with those in fully protected and adjacent open fishing areas using underwater visual belt transect survey in four MPAs with diverse features (age, size, design, and fishing activity) in the Bicol region, northeastern Philippines. Fishing activities in partially protected and open fishing areas were also investigated in the four MPA sites through interviews of local fishermen. The species richness and abundance of fishery target sized fishes were significantly higher in fully protected areas compared with those in partially protected and open fishing areas in the four MPA sites. Similarly, species richness and abundance in partially protected areas were significantly higher than open fishing areas in large and conventionally designed MPAs, but there were no differences in small and non-conventional MPAs. The species richness and abundance of fishery non-target sized fish did not differ significantly among the three zones in each MPA. There were also no significant differences in the fishing indices (e.g., fishing time and gears) for partially protected and open fishing areas in each MPA site, thereby suggesting that large MPAs with conventionally designed partially protected areas could reduce the fishing pressure and/or increase fish movements from fully protected area. © 2018",,,,,25,,Reg.

Studies of the population biology of invasive species may allow more precise focus on specific plant and soil characteristics involved in invasiveness. The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between selected biological population characteristics of Impatiens parviflora and a few chosen chemical and physical soil features. Sites were selected because of the poor mapping of invasive plants in the protected natural areas and their interactions with specific soil characteristics. Research on I. parviflora was realised during a vegetation season in three forest nature reserves in Prešov district, Slovakia. Some population biological characteristics of I. parviflora as one of the most invasive plant species in Slovakia and Central Europe were surveyed. The correlation between the numbers of plants was analysed, as well as select population biological characteristics of I. parviflora (plant height, width of the largest leaf and the number of flowers/fruits) on some select chemical and physical soil attributes (soil pH, bulk density, porosity and soil moisture) were analysed. The results suggest that biological characteristics of I. parviflora in three different microhabitats – a meadow (a habitat without tree vegetation), a habitat close to the stumps and a habitat under dense tree vegetation seemed to influence the selected soil parameters. Our results showed that I. parviflora prefers acidic and non-compacted soil conditions. Sunlight and soil moisture do not show statistically significant differences on any biological characteristic of the population. The results also suggest that the autecology of I. parviflora in Western and Central Europe is not very well known and deserves further study. © 2016 Lenka Bobu?ská et al.",,87-98,,1,2,,Eur. J.

Aims We predicted (1) a similar mixed spatial tactic in the two sexes (shifters and residents); (2) that reproductive success could be a key factor eliciting a mixed spatial tactic in hinds; and (3) that hunting activities may affect the rutting season, influencing rutting site location. Methods We studied the spatial behaviour of 41 red deer on the Italian north-eastern Alps, from December 2003 to October 2007, by VHF radio-tracking. Key results For both sexes, two main spatial tactics were described, including residents, remaining in the same area all year long, and shifters, using non-overlapping seasonal home ranges. Most deer showed consistent spatial behaviour. In all, 87% of stags and 49% of hinds were shifters. Sexual segregation was greater in winter than in summer. All hinds wintered in the same valley, with residents in the qualitatively poorer, but protected, area. Resident hinds showed a variable yearly reproductive success, whereas usually all shifters had a calf at heel. Rutting areas of hinds overlapped with their winter or summer ranges, whereas stags occupied up to three different areas yearly. Deer distribution determined a different harvesting pressure on the two sexes. Conclusions Although shifters and residents were found in both sexes, differences in spatial behaviour of stags and hinds were consistent for seasonal occupancy, habitat selection and number of seasonal home ranges. For hinds, a mixed spatial tactic, seasonality and hunting activities could be key factors of reproductive success. Implications Hunting could affect the proportions of shifter and resident hinds at different levels, with the latter benefiting from the protection accorded. This unequally distributed selective harvesting may alter the local social structure and population dynamics in the long term. Shifter behaviour, seasonal movements and sexual segregation may bias population estimates, if counts are conducted when individuals make seasonal movements. Furthermore, the size of a hunting unit should be function of the extent of local movements of deer. © 2012 CSIRO.",,573-582,,7,39,,Wildl.

Trindade is one of the communities making efforts to advocate for themselves as the key stakeholders in a negotiation process for a no-take protected area management plan. As is happening across South America, there has been a shift in policy in Brazil towards participatory environmental governance practices. The objective of this paper is to analyze the quality of community participation in a resource governance process, the perceptions of participating and non-participating community members, and the actual influence of community participants on the protected area management plan under review (in 2012/2013). The research was conducted as interdisciplinary action research. Data were collected through a qualitative approach, using mixed methods of narratives, interviews, focus groups, participant observation and workshops. The negotiation process and community participation in this negotiation process was studied through observation of meetings. Analysis of the negotiation process revealed the importance that community participants place on their rights as Caiçaras, and four further key themes emerged; communication disconnect, opportunity and capacity to participate, representation and decision-making, and conflict. Meaningful participation in natural resources management has not yet been achieved in the process reviewed. The process described is the initial phase of a long-term relationship between community members and government authorities, and changes need to be made so that the desired outcomes for natural resources management are more likely to be achieved. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.",,01-Oct,,,60,,Environ.

The immensity of the search space poses a significant challenge for modern multiobjective optimization tools. This study introduces two approaches that improve the efficiency and effectiveness of evolutionary multiobjective optimization tools when solving monitoring design problems. We show how a careful mathematical representation of the monitoring design search space and reductions of possible monitoring-well positions enhance the solution and attainment of decision-relevant multiobjective trade-offs in monitoring quality. We demonstrate the value of our improved representation and reduction techniques on a three-objective monitoring network design problem focused on urban source water protection (termed the U_Protect benchmarking problem). U_Protect abstracts a real-world case study within an urban drinking-water well catchment, including inaccessible and restricted areas for monitoring-well installation, and random heterogeneities in the conductivity field. Our representation and reduction methods significantly enhance the effectiveness, efficiency, and reliability of the optimization. Our proposed framework shifts focus to the most impactful monitoring design decisions while also enhancing decision makers understanding of key performance trade-offs.

For many species, designing reserve networks is complicated by the absence or limited availability of spatial and life-history data. This is particularly true for data on larval dispersal, which has only recently become available. However, systematic conservation planning methods currently incorporate demographic processes through unsatisfactory surrogates. There are therefore two key challenges to designing marine reserve networks that achieve feature representation and demographic persistence constraints. First, constructing a method that efficiently incorporates persistence as well as complementary feature representation. Second, incorporating persistence using a mechanistic description of population viability, rather than a proxy such as size or distance. Here we construct a novel systematic conservation planning method that addresses both challenges, and parameterise it to design a hypothetical marine reserve network for fringing coral reefs in the Keppel Islands, Great Barrier Reef, Australia. For this application, we describe how demographic persistence goals can be constructed for an important reef fish species in the region, the bar-cheeked trout (Plectropomus maculatus). We compare reserve networks that are optimally designed for either feature representation or demographic persistence, with a reserve network that achieves both goals simultaneously. As well as being practically applicable, our analyses also provide general insights into marine reserve planning for both representation and demographic persistence. First, persistence constraints for dispersive organisms are likely to be much harder to achieve than representation targets, due to their greater complexity. Second, persistence and representation constraints pull the reserve network design process in divergent directions, making it difficult to efficiently achieve both constraints. Although our method can be readily applied to the datarich Keppel Islands case study, we finally consider the factors that limit the method's utility in information-poor contexts common in marine conservation. © 2016 Bode et al.

Many fish species, especially marine top predators, are already highly depleted and rely on population monitoring and conservation strategies for their maintenance. In this context, Marine Protected Areas can help recover target species and provide crucial information about population trends when human activities are restricted or managed. Here, we used the longest and most complete temporal series of reef fish data in the Southwestern Atlantic, comprising 16 years of underwater visual census sampling. We evaluated temporal trends in the density and biomass of the dusky grouper (Epinephelus marginatus), both inside and outside a no-take and no-entry Marine Reserve. Our findings reveal a consistent decline in density and biomass inside and outside the MPA over time, reaching alarmingly low densities and experiencing a steeper biomass decline in the last five years. Our results contradict global expectations of positive population recovery trends within MPAs. We highlight the adverse impacts of human activities on the dusky grouper population, including illegal fishing and habitat degradation. Additionally, we address the limited understanding of species' life stages, underscoring that their occurrence outside protected boundaries may render the entire population vulnerable to human pressures. Thus, to guarantee population recovery, stakeholders and researchers must take immediate action to increase knowledge of all life stages and improve ongoing strategies. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,257,,Ocean Coast.

The broad aims of climate change adaptation policies are to reduce vulnerability and increase the adaptive capacity and resilience of ecosystems to climate change impacts. There are a range of adaptation policy options relevant to aquatic systems, and many of these measures can be ‘mainstreamed’ or incorporated into existing conservation and resource management frameworks. This article evaluates adaptation policy options and the constraints on policy implementation for freshwater and estuarine ecosystems in the coastal floodplains of tropical Queensland. Many of these aquatic systems are in a degraded condition and are vulnerable to the compounded impacts of climate change and other stressors. The analysis suggests that statutory planning schemes, water resource planning and protected area frameworks provide limited scope to address the more severe threats to these systems from rising sea levels, extreme cyclones, floods and droughts. In many locations, the effectiveness of adaptation policies is constrained by existing land uses and competing demands from communities and industry sectors. To prevent further widespread loss of habitat may require the development and implementation of new policies that prioritise adaptation management for freshwater and estuarine ecosystems. © 2010, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.",,154-164,,3,17,,Australas.

Implemented for diverse objectives from stock rebuilding to biodiversity protection and ecosystem management, spatial measures range from temporary fisheries closures to marine protected areas with varying levels of protection. Ecological and economic benefits from spatial protection have been demonstrated for many reef and demersal species, but remain debated and understudied for highly migratory fishes, such as tunas, billfishes, and pelagic sharks. Here we summarize the spatial extent of fisheries closures implemented by the tuna RFMOs as well as marine protected areas worldwide, which together cover ?15% of global ocean area. We furthermore synthesize results from modeling and tagging studies as well as fisheries-dependent research to provide an overview of the efficacy and benefits of present spatial protection measures for large pelagic fishes and their associated fisheries. We conclude that (1)many species with known migration routes, aggregating behavior, and philopatry can benefit from spatial protection; but (2)spatial protection alone is insufficient and should be integrated with effective fisheries management to protect and rebuild stocks of highly migratory species. We suggest tailoring spatial protection to the biology of large pelagic fishes, including improved protection for aggregation sites and migration corridors. These features currently appear to be an important—yet overlooked— opportunity to safeguard depleted and recovering stocks and protect pelagic biodiversity. New remote-sensing tools that track pelagic fishes and fishing vessels may provide timely support for improved spatial management in waters that were previously difficult to observe. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,80-90,,,105,,Mar.

At present there are over 1300 MPAs. The primary legal responsibility for the designation of MPAs falls to individual countries, but protection of the marine environment at large scales is also critical because ocean circulation does not honor legal boundaries and often exceeds the influence of any one nation or group of nations. There are many reasons for establishing MPAs; the papers we surveyed principally referred to scientific, economic, cultural, and ethical factors. Two approaches predominated: fisheries management and habitat protection. Although the major threat to terrestrial systems is habitat loss, the major threats to the world's oceans are fisheries overexploitation, coastal development, and chemical and biological pollution. MPAs may provide conservation of formerly exploited species as well as benefits to the fishery through leakage of 'surplus' adults (spillover) and larvae (larval replenishment) across reserve boundaries. Higher order effects, such as changes in species richness or changes in community structure and function, have only been superficially explored. Because many MPAs are along coastlines, within shipping lanes, and near human centers of activity, the chance of chemical and biological pollution is high. Use of MPAs to combat development and pollution is not appropriate, because MPAs do not have functional boundaries. The ocean is a living matrix carrying organisms as well as particles and therefore even relatively environmentally sensitive uses of coastal ecosystems can degrade ecosystem structure and function via increasing service demands (e.g. nutrient and toxics transformation) and visitation. Whether an MPA is effective is a function of the initial objectives, the level of enforcement, and its design. Single reserves need to be large and networked to accommodate bio-physical patterns of larval dispersal and recruitment. Some authors have suggested that reserve size needs to be extremely large 50-90% of total habitat to hedge against the uncertainties of overexploitation. On a local scale, marine protected areas can be effective conservation tools. On a global scale, MPAs can only be effective if they are substantively representative of all biogeographic zones, single reserves are networked within biogeographic zones, and the total amount of area reserved per zone is 20% or greater. The current size and placement of protected areas falls far short of comprehensive or even adequate conservation objectives.",,287-304,,2,31,,Ecol.

Understanding how penguins use marine habitats around the Falkland Islands is critical to reducing conflicts with human activities. We present satellite tracking data that show how three species of penguins breeding at New Island use the marine environment. This information can be used to prevent and reduce negative impacts of development. 2. Gentoo penguins foraged very close (< 10km) to the breeding colony, magellanic penguins foraged at intermediate distances (10-90km) and rockhopper penguins foraged both very close (< 10 km) and at great (> 100 km) distances. Rockhoppers foraged in and/or travelled through an area designated for oil and gas development. 3. The patterns of penguin use of the Falkland Islands marine environment indicate that conflicts between penguins and humans are likely. Because of the large area penguins use, marine zoning (regulating location and timing of human activities over large areas of the marine environment) will be required to minimize these conflicts. Localized marine reserves near colonies may effectively protect gentoo penguins, but will be inadequate to protect other penguin species. 4. The precautionary principle should be incorporated into future plans for fisheries that target penguin prey species such as crustaceans or baitfish and for development of petroleum extraction and transport. Given the dynamic nature of the marine environment, continued satellite tracking of penguins will be essential for an effective conservation programme.

We quantify inter-annual and sub-colony variation in the summer foraging distribution of a population of European shags Phalacrocorax aristotelis, using a tracking data set comprising 320 individuals and 1106 foraging trips in 15. years from 1987 to 2010. Foraging distribution over the study period was concentrated in three areas. Data from one and two years captured an average of 54% and 64% of this distribution, respectively, but it required 8. years' data to capture over 90% of the distribution. Foraging range increased with population size when breeding success was low, suggesting interplay between extrinsic and intrinsic effects. Furthermore, females had foraging ranges on average 36% greater than males. Finally, sub-colony segregation occurred in foraging areas up to 4. km from the colony and in the most distant locations (>10. km), whilst there was considerable overlap at intermediate distances (6-10. km). Our study highlights important considerations for marine spatial planning in particular, and species conservation in general, notably the proportion of the population distribution identified, the prevailing conditions experienced and the need for balanced sampling across the population. © 2014 The Authors.",,292-299,,,170,,Biol.

We present a five-step framework that can help practitioners prioritize actions that may improve financial sustainability, which was applied to six MPAs in Colombia, Bonaire, and Belize. Limited funds were found to directly undermine effectiveness towards conservation goals for five sites, with these impacts particularly significant for four. Annual budgets required increases from 6 % to 141 % to meet financial needs. Two sites had significant underlying weaknesses in their financial strategies that could lead to direct impacts if not addressed, with an additional three sites having more minor, but still observable, weaknesses in this manner. Staff salaries were the largest expense for all MPAs examined and also most frequently in need of additional funds. Opportunities to potentially eliminate these funding gaps were identified for all six MPAs through reallocating existing resources (n = 2), improving in-place mechanisms (n = 6), or implementing one or more alternative mechanisms (n = 6). Among several findings, some MPAs had the potential to increase tourism-based income by several million dollars per year, which would well exceed local financial requirements and could have substantial financial benefits on a network-wide scale. Some MPAs, including those with lower budgets, effectively leveraged partnerships and inter-institutional coordination to expand management capacity. Among alternative mechanisms that could be implemented, opportunities to leverage private-sector investments were especially common. Other MPAs around the world could likewise improve financial sustainability through analysis, evaluation, and execution of the full suite of options described herein. © 2023",,,,,283,,Biol.

This funding gap is particularly pervasive for marine protected areas (MPAs). It has been suggested that marine conservationists examine examples from terrestrial protected areas (TPAs) for potential solutions to better fund MPAs. However, the funding needs for MPAs and TPAs have not been directly compared, and there is risk of management failures if any such differences are not properly considered when designing MPA financial strategies. We perform an in-depth literature review to investigate differences in distribution of costs incurred by MPAs and TPAs across three primary categories; establishment, operational, and opportunity costs. We use our findings to conduct a snapshot quantitative comparison, which we complement with theoretical support to provide preliminary insight into differences between MPA and TPA costs, and how these may influence financial strategies most appropriate for each type of PA. Our research suggests that TPA costs, and thereby funding requirements, are greater for the time period leading up to and including the implementation phase, whereas MPAs have higher financial requirements for meeting long-term annual operational costs. This may be primarily due to the prevalence of private property rights for terrestrial regions, which are less frequently in place for ocean areas, as well as logistical requirements for enforcement and monitoring in a marine environment. To cement these suggestions in greater analytical certainty, we call for more thorough and standardized PA cost reporting at all stages, especially for MPAs and PAs in developing countries. The quantity and quality of such data presently limits research in PA sustainable finance, and will need to be remedied to advance the field in future years. © 2019 Bohorquez, Dvarskas and Pikitch.",,,,FEB,6,,Front.

Value of Information (VoI) methods provide an approach for understanding and managing uncertainty from the standpoint of the decision maker. These methods are commonly used in other fields (e.g. economics, public health) and are increasingly used in biodiversity conservation. This decision-analytical approach can identify the best management alternative to select where the effectiveness of interventions is uncertain, and can help to decide when to act and when to delay action until after further research. We review the use of VoI in the environmental domain, reflect on the need for greater uptake of VoI, particularly for strategic conservation planning, and suggest promising areas for new research. We also suggest common reporting standards as a means of increasing the leverage of this powerful tool. The environmental science, ecology and biodiversity categories of the Web of Knowledge were searched using the terms ‘Value of Information,’ ‘Expected Value of Perfect Information,’ and the abbreviation ‘EVPI.’ Google Scholar was searched with the same terms, and additionally the terms decision and biology, biodiversity conservation, fish, or ecology. We identified 1225 papers from these searches. Included studies were limited to those that showed an application of VoI in biodiversity conservation rather than simply describing the method. All examples of use of VOI were summarised regarding the application of VoI, the management objectives, the uncertainties, the models used, how the objectives were measured, and the type of VoI. While the use of VoI appears to be on the increase in biodiversity conservation, the reporting of results is highly variable, which can make it difficult to understand the decision context and which uncertainties were considered. Moreover, it was unclear if, and how, the papers informed management and policy interventions, which is why we suggest a range of reporting standards that would aid the use of VoI. The use of VoI in conservation settings is at an early stage. There are opportunities for broader applications, not only for species-focussed management problems, but also for setting local or global research priorities for biodiversity conservation, making funding decisions, or designing or improving protected area networks and management. The long-term benefits of applying VoI methods to biodiversity conservation include a more structured and decision-focused allocation of resources to research. © 2018 Cambridge Philosophical Society",,629-647,,2,94,,Biol.

Differing shifts in both response and effects traits were observed across sites, regardless of the trait composition of the reference assemblages. Notable differences in the magnitude of traits changes were also observed for both trait types. Traits shifts are difficult to predict as they appear to reflect both environmental conditions and disposal regime.

Indeed, ensuring favourable conservation conditions for aquatic habitats and species of conservation concern is closely related to the achievement of a good ecological status in water bodies. However, since these two sets of European laws are generally applied without any coordination, an inefficient use of resources may adversely affect their goals. The main negative outcome is an increase in the cost of monitoring programs for collecting data in nature (i.e., physical and chemical parameters, species and habitats, plant communities). The use of macrophytes as a bioindicator, as imposed by the WFD, may instead help to integrate data on aquatic EU habitats and enhance knowledge of such habitats outside the Natura 2000 network. The aim of present study was to evaluate the usefulness of data collected in WFD monitoring surveys as a means of inferring the occurrence and the distribution of lacustrine aquatic habitats in countries belonging to the European Union (EU). The main aim of the analysis was to identify the depth gradient distribution of diagnostic macrophyte taxa in two EU habitats (3140, i.e., Chara-dominated benthic communities, and 3150, i.e., natural eutrophic lakes) using data collected in lakes in Lombardy (northern Italy), some of which are included in the Natura 2000 network (10 out 16). While recognizing the limitations of the data collected within the two frameworks, the results confirmed the marked usefulness of WFD data as a means of enhancing the knowledge available on lacustrine aquatic habitats in the EU. WFD data can actively help to improve the basic information on aquatic habitats, thereby more effectively supporting regional strategies for biodiversity conservation as well as recovery programs. © 2017, Page Press Publications.

This vegetation is intensely fragmented and disturbed; despite its importance there are few records of the traditional knowledge of medicinal species. Material and methods Twenty-four residents in the neighborhood of the protected area ""Parque Estadual da Cabeça do Cachorro"" were interviewed. The residents were questioned about preparation techniques, recommended doses, ways of administration and healing properties of various parts of the plants and were invited to walk through the park to collect in situ some species of plants. The recognized medicinal species were identified and traditional knowledge was systematized. Quantitative indices (Informant Consensus Factor - FIC and Use Value - UV) were calculated. Results 115 species of medicinal plants belonging to 54 botanical families were cited. Asteraceae (n=14), Fabaceae (n=11), Myrtaceae (n=6), Bignoniaceae, Solanaceae and Verbenaceae (n=5) were the most species-rich. The highest use values were calculated for Achyrocline satureioides, Aristolochia triangularis and Bauhinia forficata (0.63). Moreover, the informants consensus about usages of medicinal plants ranges from 0.024 to 0.663, which shows high level of agreements among the informants for gastro-intestinal and respiratory system diseases. Furthermore, for the first time, new traditional medicinal uses of Asteraceae (Chromolaena pedunculosa Hook. & Arn.), Commelinaceae (Tradescantia fluminensis Vell.) and Polypodiaceae (Microgramma vacciniifolia Langsd. & Fisch.) species were reported. Conclusions Present study revealed that the residents of the surrounding region of forest fragments of Paraná are rich in ethno-medicinal knowledge and rely on plant-based remedies for common health problems. As in many parts of Brazil knowledge of the past is combined with new knowledge that has recently been incorporated emphasizing the cultural changes that this area is experiencing. Despite the use of different species of plants are crucial to their way of life, there is concern that these rich popular knowledge may disappear in the future as a result of a possible modernization of this area. © 2014 Published by Elsevier Ireland Ltd.",,01-Oct,,,161,,J.

In order to provide a robust basis for the conservation of freshwater turtles in Africa, we compared the effect that different species-mapping approaches had on derived patterns of species richness, species vulnerability and protected-area representativeness. Location Africa. Methods We adopted three different approaches with increasing complexity for generating species distribution maps. The first approach was based on the geographic intersection of species records and grid squares; the second on the union of local convex polygons; and the third on inductive distribution modelling techniques. We used distribution maps, generated using these three approaches, to determine conservation priorities based on geographic patterns of species richness and vulnerability, as well as for conducting gap and irreplaceability analyses. Results We obtained markedly different distribution maps using the three methods, which in turn caused differences in conservation priorities. The grid-square approach underestimated range sizes and species richness, while the polygon approach overestimated these attributes. The distribution modelling approach provided the most realistic outcome in terms of diversity patterns, by minimizing both commission and omission errors. An integrated map of conservation priority - derived by combining individual measures of priority based on the distribution modelling approach - identified the Gulf of Guinea coast and the Albertine Rift as major priority areas. Main conclusions Each species-mapping approach has both advantages and disadvantages. The choice of the most appropriate approach in any given situation depends on the availability of locality records and on the relative importance of mitigating omission and commission errors. Our findings suggest that in most circumstances, the use of distribution modelling has many advantages relative to the other approaches. The priority areas identified in this study should be considered for targeting efforts to conserve Africa freshwater turtles in the coming years. © 2011 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,581-592,,4,17,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Africa; Atlantic Ocean; biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; chelonians; Chelonians; CLIMATE-CHANGE; conservation biogeography; Conservation biogeography; conservation management; DISTRIBUTION MODELS; DISTRIBUTIONS; East African Rift; ecological modeling; EFFICIENCY; ERRORS; gap analysis; Gap analysis; generalized boosted models; Generalized boosted models; Gulf of Guinea; HABITAT SUITABILITY; IRREPLACEABILITY; local convex hulls; Local convex hulls; mapping method; numerical model; occurrence records; Occurrence records; population distribution; PREDICTION; prioritization; protected area; range size; RICHNESS; species conservation; species occurrence; species richness; Species richness; Testudines; turtle; vulnerability; Western Rift,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The main goal of this work was to develop a modelling approach for analysing bottom morphological changes on Sites of Community Importance (SCIs) characterized by the presence of Posidonia oceanica meadows. Sediment dynamics (settling fluxes) and composition (grain size and mineralogy) within the two SCIs of the Civitavecchia coastal zone (north-eastern Tyrrhenian, Italy) were investigated using sediment traps and bottom sediment samples. Moreover structural, morphological, and dynamic parameters of P. oceanica meadows were analyzed. The results showed high reliability in reproducing the settling fluxes of medium and coarser sands (the most abundant sediment fractions of the two SCIs) compared to the corresponding fluxes estimated with sediment traps. To further confirm the accuracy of the proposed approach, a significant relationship was shown to exist between bottom morphological changes reproduced by the numerical model and plant rhizome growth as measured by in-situ sampling; this relationship attests to the capacity of P. oceanica to withstand burial and erosion processes. The model allowed us to perform a high spatial resolution evaluation of erosion levels and deposition processes that occur within the two SCIs, providing a predictive and useful tool towards a more sustainable management and conservation strategy of P. oceanica meadows in coastal zones. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,254,,Estuar.

When cavities are limited, niche overlap can result in interspecific competition, with negative consequences for threatened populations. Vinaceous-breasted Parrots (Amazona vinacea) are endangered cavity nesters endemic to the subtropical Atlantic Forest, where cavities are scarce. We examined nest niche overlap among Vinaceous-breasted Parrots and 9 potential competitors (birds and mammals >140 g, and social insects) in Argentina, considering (1) timing of breeding, (2) characteristics of cavities (depth, entrance diameter, height), trees (diameter at breast height DBH, species, condition), and habitat (surrounding land use, distance to edge), and (3) interspecific cavity reuse. During 10 breeding seasons we studied nests and roosts, measured their characteristics, and monitored cavities to detect reuse. We used multinomial logistic regression to determine whether the 6 most abundant taxa differed in nest and roost site characteristics. Timing of breeding overlapped for all bird species except the White-eyed Parakeet (Psittacara leucophthalmus). No combination of cavity, tree, and habitat characteristics predicted the taxa that utilized cavities. Moreover, 8 of the 10 taxa reused cavities interspecifically. The high level of overlap in realized nest niche, combined with previous evidence that cavities could limit bird density in our study area, suggest the possibility of interspecific competition for cavities among multiple taxa. Although models did not perform well at classifying cavities by taxon, some characteristics of cavities, trees, and habitat were selected more by Vinaceous-breasted Parrots than by other taxa, and we recommend targeting conservation efforts toward cavities and trees with these characteristics (7-40 cm entrance diameter, >10 m high, DBH >55 cm). We found 62% of Vinaceous-breasted Parrot nests on farms (vs. ?50% for other taxa), highlighting the importance of working with local farmers to conserve cavities in anthropogenic habitats as well as in protected areas. © 2017 American Ornithological Society.",,58-72,,1,119,,Condor,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: University of California Press,,,,Amazona vinacea; Argentina; cavity-using fauna; nest site; niche overlap; secondary cavity-nesters; subtropical forest; tree cavities,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We aim to evaluate the rehabilitation success of a unique Mediterranean dune system site along the Tyrrhenian coast of Italy which underwent a dune consolidation intervention and species planting at the beginning of the twentieth century after the destruction of the natural ecosystem. We used three nearby non-rehabilitated protected coastal sites with different degrees of disturbance as reference sites encompassing different potential rehabilitation outcomes of the target site. To assess the overall result of the intervention, we used several plant characteristics and measured taxonomic and functional beta-diversity between all sites. We compared the proportions of typical and ruderal species of dune habitat types across sites. We further used the species–area relationship to examine if the number of observed species in our sites differed from the expected. Our analyses revealed that the rehabilitated site was taxonomically and functionally more similar to the least disturbed site. We suggest that plant characteristics arising from botanical inventories can be fruitfully used in rehabilitation assessment as they value the taxonomic and functional species diversity at the community scale. We conclude that plant characteristics compared across sites are useful tools in ecosystem state assessment if they reflect the ecological functions and conservation values of the natural ecosystems. © 2021 The Authors.

Aim: We aim to identify the extent of Australia's deep sea, the deepest locations in Australian waters, and investigate how much of Australia's deep sea is located within marine parks. Methods: We use altimetry-derived water depth to calculate the total area in 1000-m bins. Key results: The total area of Australian waters, excluding Antarctic waters, is 8 914 134 km2, of which, 70.4% is deep sea greater than 1000 m and 48% is deeper than the 3000-m abyssal boundary. In total, 56% of Australian Marine Parks are deeper than 3000 m and 20 of 61 marine reserves include water deeper than 5000 m. Conclusions: The Convention on Biological Diversity calls for marine protected areas globally to increase from 7.7 to 30% by 2030: Australia has already placed over 40% of its waters under protection. Despite this, there are no long-term programs monitoring the deep sea and Australia has not produced a globally significant amount of deep-sea science. Implications: Herein lies opportunities for Australia to understand fully its largest habitat and become the global exemplar of deep-sea science and conservation.  © 2022",,,,,,,Mar. Freshw.

However, intensive economic intervention, especially clearcutting, leads to the development of weakened tree stands. The most sensitive to this impact are high-elevation and steep-slope forest ecosystems. The aim of our study was to determine the morphometric prerequisites for the forest ecosystem conservation in the Transcarpathia region. To this end, we performed a morphometric analysis of the SRTM digital elevation model and determined the steepness and exposure of slopes. Using the layer with forest cover types, we identified high-elevation forest ecosystems located at an altitude of more than 1,100 m above sea level, as well as steep-slope forest ecosystems, which include forests on steep and very steep slopes with a steepness of more than 20 degrees. The existing level of protection of high-elevation and steep-slope forest ecosystems was analysed by overlaying the layers of protected areas and officially adopted Emerald Network sites and those proposed to join the Network. It was found that about 73.1% of high-elevation and steep-slope forest ecosystems had different levels of conservation status. Of these, 31.1% were within the nature reserve fund. Based on the processed data, we have identified the areas with a high risk of adverse exogenous processes, where no nature protection measures are carried out. Their proportion in high-elevation and steep-slope forest ecosystems was 26.9%. The legal framework of Ukraine significantly restricts economic activity in these forests. In particular, clearcutting is prohibited in them. However, the absence of a clear definition of these forests as a protected area may lead to violations of existing regulations. That is why we recommend implementing additional measures to preserve these forest ecosystems. © 2025, Polskie Towarzystwo Inzynierii Ekologicznej (PTIE). All rights reserved.",,193-204,,2,26,,Ecol.

Scan samplings were conducted from a unique fixed point during a total of 548.3 hours of observation from September 2007 to August 2008. Estuarine dolphins were present in 89% of the 137 sampling days. A total of 481 groups were recorded entering the monitored area with a mean group size of 3.08 ± 1.83. All age classes were recorded in the area throughout the year, but adults were more numerous. Three phases were delimited according to the presence of the dolphins in the area and water visibility. The dolphins rarely show noticeable behavioural response to the passage of small boats in their vicinity. Porto de Ilhéus may represent an attractive area for estuarine dolphins due to the presence of fishing boats that regularly discard fish that have no economic value but are consumed by dolphins. Moreover, the harbour is an area of socialisation for these individuals.

These mangrove forests provide a home for other plants and animals as well as providing resources for people living in coastal areas. Thus, it is important to promote proper conservation and judicious replanting in areas affected by storms. Since different species vary on their tolerance to physical conditions such as water salinity and soil composition, the appropriate genus must be used in reforestation efforts. This study aims to model the change in soil composition due to the introduction of a non-native species, Rhizophora mucronata, and restoring soil condition to aid recolonization of the existing native species, Avicennia and Sonneratia. The study uses an agent-based model for the prediction of the regenerative behaviour of mangrove stands consisting of the native species and the planted or non-native species in a fragmented habitat, with the use of spatio-temporal coloured noise to simulate stochastic seedling dispersal and subject to storm damage. The model uses Salmo and Juanico's model for mangrove growth.

As the environmental aspirations of water managers and conservationists broaden, there is a need for integrated methods of conservation assessment which can be of value to both groups. This paper considers the requirements inherent in such methods, and explores some of the problems in their design, using for illustration the development of SERCON (System for Evaluating Rivers for Conservation) in the UK. The design of integrated assessment methods, including the selection of attributes for evaluation, must be closely related to the objectives of any conservation activity. For example, selecting a representative series of rivers for statutory protection may require more focused assessment techniques than those needed for setting river conservation management objectives. In the European Union, the Habitats Directive provides a good example of the former approach, in which specific river types and species listed in the Directive must be evaluated for selecting Special Areas of Conservation. In contrast, the forthcoming Water Framework Directive will need to rely on a more comprehensive method of integrated assessment to ensure that 'good ecological quality' can be reliably defined, monitored and maintained. Attempts at developing integrated conservation assessment methods need to address six main issues: (i) differences in perception of conservation 'value'; (ii) defining conservation criteria (such as 'naturalness'), many of which are to an extent subjective; (iii) establishing weighting systems to differentiate important from less important conservation features; (iv) ensuring that methods are rigorous and consistent; (v) the need for extensive datasets to allow comprehensive assessment; and (vi) providing clear guidance on interpreting the outputs.

The focus on cost-effectiveness by spatial conservation prioritization has led to a bias towards placing MPAs in areas that are least threatened. This study investigates how conservation priorities differ between two management strategies of either targeting or avoiding high threat areas for protection, using the case of the Sulu Sulawesi Seas in the Coral Triangle. For both strategies, the target of protecting 20% of habitat could not be achieved solely by protecting low threat areas. A high proportion of the region had large differences in conservation outcomes between the two strategies; majority of these areas were highly prioritized in the threat avoidance strategy but had low or zero importance in the threat selection strategy. Selecting for highly threatened areas required less habitat area to be protected to achieve the same conservation target and resulted in a more equitable distribution of priority sites per country and sub-region. This demonstrates the importance of deciding on the objectives of conservation and management policies up-front. The results suggest that, contrary to the common practice of avoiding threats in spatial planning, a threat selection strategy should be part of the management toolbox, particularly in transboundary planning for regions with high overall threat levels, where it may be important to achieve shared conservation targets equitably. © 2016.",,23-29,,,68,,Mar.

Despite this, no consistent approaches have been developed around Europe for monitoring lake hydromorphology. To address this need, representatives from 12 countries met at a series of workshops to develop two protocols for monitoring, published under the auspices of the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). The first standard (EN 16039) describes six categories for assessing lake hydromorphology: hydraulics, morphometry, bedforms/landforms and substrate, connectivity and continuity, and land cover. The second standard (EN 16870) sets out a scoring system for assessing the degree of modification of lake hydromorphology, which was designed, tested and refined using data from 127 lakes in seven European countries. The CEN standards focus on four lake zones-riparian, shore, littoral, and open water-but recognize the importance of considering lakes within their wider catchment context. The field techniques described are based largely on Lake Habitat Survey but also rely on existing databases, maps and remote-sensing data. These standards are aimed at scientists, conservation bodies and environmental regulators, and are relevant not only for monitoring lakes under the Water Framework Directive, but also for contributing to programmes of lake conservation. For example, in the UK, parts of the CEN standards have been incorporated within the methods used for monitoring and reporting on the condition of Special Areas of Conservation (under the Habitats Directive) and Sites of Special Scientific Interest under national legislation. It is hoped that this pan-European approach will improve the ability to compare data across many countries, and ultimately ensure that the results of monitoring are translated into measures for improving the hydromorphological condition of lakes and the biological communities they contain.",,655-669,,4,29,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000465962300014,,,,,,,BENTHIC INVERTEBRATES; CEN; CLASSIFICATION; COMMUNITIES; conservation; CONSERVATION; ECOLOGICAL STATUS; FISH; HABITAT SURVEY; Habitats Directive; Lake Habitat Survey; LITTORAL-ZONE; monitoring; STANDING WATERS; Water Framework Directive; WATER-LEVEL FLUCTUATIONS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) is a global leader in high seas conservation, having established two international MPAs in Antarctica's Southern Ocean, as part of a commitment to establish a representative system of MPAs for the CAMLR Convention Area. CCAMLR MPAs are adopted by consensus. However, consensus decision-making has slowed the MPA adoption process, and since 2016 the Commission has been unable to agree and implement further MPAs, which has stalled the development of the circumpolar representative system. The key aim of this study was to identify how features of the planning process contribute to outcomes, problems and solutions. We conducted semi-structured interviews with 18 scientists, policymakers, and expert observers from fisheries and environmental non-government organisations involved in CCAMLR MPA planning, to explore their perceptions (experiences, opinions, impressions) of the planning process. Our results identify four key features that are influential across multiple areas of the CCAMLR MPA planning and decision-making process: i) a lack of common understanding; ii) the influence of historical relationships and legacy in subsequent planning processes; iii) inconsistencies between expectations of and requirements for MPA planning; and iv) the degree to which CCAMLR principles and practices, norms, and values are shared. We demonstrate how these four features may help or hinder the effectiveness of the current planning process. We then make suggestions regarding how the planning process could be adapted to capitalise on these features. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,170,,Mar.

In Antarctica's Southern Ocean, the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) are incrementally planning and implementing regional MPAs, with the aim to establish a large-scale, representative circumpolar system for the Convention Area. The Domain 9 planning region, covering the Amundsen and Bellingshausen Seas in West Antarctica, remains unplanned for and unprotected. Here, we use a Systematic Conservation Planning (SCP) approach and planning scenarios to identify a set of spatial conservation priorities for Domain 9 that meet CCAMLR MPA objectives and are robust to various planning considerations of Southern Ocean stakeholders. We show where differences in targets and data inputs influence priority area selection and their spatial relationship with areas of fisheries interest. Our results provide priority areas for a Domain 9 MPA to contribute to the ongoing development of the circumpolar Southern Ocean MPA system, with methods that are broadly applicable for MPA planning in other Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,167,,Mar.

The objective is to draw attention to its value and assist in its conservation, as well as to incorporate it in a sustainable way into the geoheritage of the region. The methodology used includes the analysis of satellite images and shaded images derived from digital elevation models performed using QGIS and SAGA software, and a field survey to classify and characterize the geomorphology. The landform inventory considers three hierarchical groupings (large, medium, and small), based on the main morphologies and mapping scale rather than process origins. The results indicate that this region has high coastal geodiversity: landforms and points of geological interest, which underline the importance of including the geomorphological perspective for nature protection and sustainable use of the territory. In this respect, and in addition to scientific interest, the history of the landscape through its geodiversity is relevant for communication and educational and geotourism purposes.

Pico Island in the Azores archipelago was selected as a suitable case study site. Pico is a Natural Park with 35% of its area being classified as PAs. This paper presents the assessment of relative coastal vulnerability of Pico to erosion and coastal flooding in order to determine how best to manage the PAs with respects to coastal hazards. A Coastal Vulnerability Index (CVI) was developed based on remote sensing and fieldwork data whereby a set of physical coastal parameters, which serve as indicators of vulnerability, were obtained: type of cliff; exposure to swell/storm waves; outcrop flooded; and coastal defences. The CVI values were used to rate coastal segments into five classes ranging from extremely low to very high based on its relative degree of vulnerability. CVI will provide input into a decision support tool to facilitate effective planning and management on Pico Island Natural Park with the potential of adapting and extending this approach to the other SIs. © Coastal Education & Research Foundation 2014.",,385-388,,,70,,J.

In Brazil, national-level spatial planning processes are still incipient. This article offers a systematic review through a comparative meta-analysis of the literature on MPAs and spatial planning based on the following questions: (I) What topics are investigated in spatial planning in MPAs worldwide? and (II) What are the advances and trends of these topics in Brazilian MPAs? Specific goals of this study are (I) to identify studies on Brazil; and (II) to compare and contrast these with studies performed elsewhere. The PRISMA report was used to select literature, with a focus on three spatial contexts (I) outside Brazil, analyzing studies from other countries; (II) in Brazil; and (III) a case study in Brazil that focuses on a sustainable-use area in northeastern Pará. Studies outside Brazil showed three major groups of themes: (I) planning and tools; (II) stakeholders; and (III) the ecology of non-human species. For the Brazilian context, studies were grouped into five major themes: (I) small-scale fishing practices and conflicts; (II) participation in protected areas; (III) technical aspects of the planning process, (IV) zoning; and (V) mapping. The local case study investigates socio-cultural sustainability and tourism. All identified studies relate to use, but have a greater focus on conservation and, especially abroad, on species and ecosystems. There are few reviews or comparative studies that could help to draw parallels between the different spatial planning settings. We conclude that synthesis work on spatial management strategies worldwide is needed, including the elaboration of frameworks to develop measures to address the widespread lack of data and spatial planning expertise. Collaborative networks of researchers and practitioners are needed for this. The novelty in our study is that it examines MPAs and spatial planning research at three spatial contexts with innovative methodologies to represent the current state of the spatial planning discourse in coastal and marine conservation. © Copyright © 2020 Borges, Eyzaguirre, Barboza and Glaser.",,,,,7,,Front.

However, it remains unclear how to synchronize ecological definitions and legal conservation strategies regarding mangroves, especially in developing countries, such as Brazil. The influence of human populations' socio-economic context in mangrove conservation policies, as well associated challenges in incorporating this influence, are underestimated or, often, largely ignored. Considering the recent threats emerging from changes in legislation and the lack of spatial and social-ecological integrated data to plan mangrove conservation in Brazil, this paper aims to answer the following questions: (1) What suitable measures could managers and other decision makers adopt for efficient mangrove conservation planning?; (2) What are the site-specific,social-ecological aspects that need to be taken into account when deciding on conservation and management strategies?; and (3) How could science contribute to the development of these measures? In order to achieve an ecosystem-based management approach, mangrove ecosystems should not be divided into sub-systems, but instead treated as an integrated system. Furthermore, interconnections with other coastal ecosystems must be assessed and taken into account. This is crucial for effective systematic conservation planning. Also, most of the particular social-ecological aspects in the different types of mangrove ecosystems along the Brazilian coast, and how those differences might be considered while planning for conservation, remain poorly understood. Based on similar drivers of change, geological features, and likely impacts of climate change, a macro-unit approach is proposed to group mangrove systems along the Brazilian coast and guide national policies. This paper draws parallels with management approaches worldwide to find common points and hence lessons to be applied in other regional realms. It considers the issues of legal vulnerability and needs for social-ecological data on mangroves, contributing toward systematic conservation planning and ecosystem-based management for these ecosystems. © 2017 Borges, Ferreira and Lacerda.",,,,NOV,4,,Front.

Proboscis bat (Rhynchonycteris naso) is a protected species by Mexican law, whose foraging and roosting areas are strongly associated with bodies of water, primarily rivers. Therefore, alterations in the water quality pose a risk to their populations. However, knowledge of the current state of their populations and roosting ecology is very poor in Mexico. Objectives: To locate and to describe R. naso’s diurnal roosts, and to evaluate the relationship of the group size per roost with the characteristics of the diurnal roost, the salinity and pH of the water where they inhabit. Methods: From March to October 2015, we searched diurnal roost through boat tours along rivers, streams, and lagoons, in eleven sites in the Laguna de Términos Flora and Fauna Protection Area, Campeche, Mexico. For each localized roost, we recorded the group size, and their spatial distribution, the type of roost and vegetation, the distance between roosts, the diameter of trunk, the salinity, and pH. In order to investigate the effect of the variables recorded in diurnal roost on size group, generalized linear models were adjusted. Results: We found 48 diurnal roost in dead tree-trunks, tree bark and bridges, associated with freshwater, and oligohaline bodies, mainly in mangrove vegetation. The average size of the groups was 5.3 ± 0.48 and 22.6 ± 9.54 in natural and artificial roosts, respectively. We found a significant relationship with the type of roost, type of vegetation and diameter of trunk. Roosts with larger groups of bats presented an aggregated distribution. We located 40 diurnal roosts on freshwater bodies and eight in oligohaline with a high grouping level. Conclusions: Greater incidence of roost in fresh and lightly acid water is explained under optimal foraging theory. Because the study area is found in the limit of their distribution, mangrove is a very important vegetation type to guarantee the establishment of R. naso populations. Also, due no roosts were found in some portions of the study zone, quality of water, and contaminant level studies are crucial. This study provides relevant information on their populations with direct implications for the conservation in coastal areas. © 2021, Universidad de Costa Rica.

In the area, geochemical information is poor and quality standard levels for sediments are still lacking in regulation frameworks.

According to the results of this study: 1) shellfishing is legal, and also illegally practiced, in the site the most affected by heavy metal pollution; 2) part of the Pb enrichments in most sites could be originated by lead shot in the sediment; and 3) habitat and species conservation in these investigated Special Protected areas should consider geochemical aspects. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.",,13-29,,,169,,J.

Most such legislation seeks to define quality in an integrative way, by using several biological elements, together with physico-chemical and pollution elements. Such an approach allows assessment of ecological status at the ecosystem level ('ecosystem approach' or 'holistic approach' methodologies), rather than at species level (e.g. mussel biomonitoring or Mussel Watch) or just at chemical level (i.e. quality objectives) alone. Increasing attention has been paid to the development of tools for different physico-chemical or biological (phytoplankton, zooplankton, benthos, algae, phanerogams, fishes) elements of the ecosystems. However, few methodologies integrate all the elements into a single evaluation of a water body. The need for such integrative tools to assess ecosystem quality is very important, both from a scientific and stakeholder point of view. Politicians and managers need information from simple and pragmatic, but scientifically sound methodologies, in order to show to society the evolution of a zone (estuary, coastal area, etc.), taking into account human pressures or recovery processes. These approaches include: (i) multidisciplinarity, inherent in the teams involved in their implementation; (ii) integration of biotic and abiotic factors; (iii) accurate and validated methods in determining ecological integrity; and (iv) adequate indicators to follow the evolution of the monitored ecosystems. While some countries increasingly use the establishment of marine parks to conserve marine biodiversity and ecological integrity, there is awareness (e.g. in Australia) that conservation and management of marine ecosystems cannot be restricted to Marine Protected Areas but must include areas outside such reserves.

One of the objectives of EMOD-PACE is to compare European and Chinese modelling approaches for ecosystem vulnerability assessment. In particular, our objective was to test the applicability of the Chinese evaluation approach of resource-environment carrying capacity (MRECC) and spatial development suitability (abbreviated as “double evaluation”) to a European sea (the Bay of Biscay), in the context of marine spatial planning. The methodology involves three different steps: (i) an evaluation of areas of ecological importance, which includes species and habitats (i.e., biodiversity protection) and coastal characteristics; (ii) assessment of current marine development and utilization; and (iii) an ecological risk identification and the evaluation of the MRECC, by intersecting results from (i) and (ii). After collating information for 31 species of interest (fish, reptiles, mammals and birds), seven habitats (seagrass, seaweeds, saltmarshes, fish spawning areas, tidal flats, estuaries and unique habitats), marine protected areas and eight current human activities performed at sea (aquaculture, ports, ocean energy facilities, shipping, aggregate extraction and dredging, fisheries, military areas and tourism and recreation), they were aggregated and intersected (ecological data vs. human activities), and the ecological risk was determined. Since the total area covered by Marine Protected Areas and areas of high ecological importance is 135,372 km2, the available carrying capacity for development of marine activities within the Bay of Biscay is 229,266 km2. When we apply weighting to the calculation of the ecological importance and human activities, the high importance areas increase and the available carrying capacity decreases by 0.2%, to 228,637 km2. In this work we demonstrate that the Chinese double evaluation approach can be adapted and applied to a European sea, but to obtain more accurate results, and more extensive application to different areas are needed. Also, we have identified essential improvements, including better information for a number of species and habitats; more robust methods to identify biodiversity priorities; additional fish life-story traits; include future human activities; risks posed by multiple activities; and use appropriate weights through a stakeholder consultation.

We are experiencing a global crisis in conservation, which has led to the prioritization of targets, such as nations, regions, and animal groups, which are necessary while resources are disputed. Brazil is a priority not only because of its megadiversity, high rates of endemism, and frequent descriptions of new species but also because of its high levels of deforestation. Among the species groups prioritized for conservation is the anurans (Amphibia: Anura), the population of which is severely declining. One group of anurans is the genus Brachycephalus, which includes 37 endemic species in the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest. Some of these species have highly restricted distributions (<100 ha). Thirty new species have been described since 2000, and 55.3% of all species are threatened with extinction. Brachycephalus tridactylus was only recently described and remains restricted to its type locality. Because of its reduced geographical distribution (0.41 km2), it has been proposed to be considered as Vulnerable. The objective of this study is to reevaluate the conservation status of Brachycephalus tridactylus and propose conservation measures. Methods. We searched for new populations during 2016-2020, evaluated in loco impacts and potential impacts on the species' population, and performed an analysis of the density of this population and estimated its size. International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) criteria were used to assess the conservation status of the species. Results. We recorded the species in seven new localities (from 715-1,140 m above sea level) in the state of Săo Paulo up to 33 km from the type locality of the species (in state of Paraná). We estimated the area of occupancy as 148.44 km2, densities as one calling male per 4.05 m2 and 130.00 m2, and a total population size of 4,429,722 adult individuals. Based on our finding, we proposed three lines of management: (1) formation of fire brigades, (2) management of residents' mules in the conservation unit and surrounding areas, and (3) management of degraded areas. We recommend changing the species' conservation status from Vulnerable to Endangered because of its fragmented distribution and decline in the area of occupancy and in the quality of its habitat. Our results have expanded the species previous geographic distribution and delimited areas without previous records. Our estimates of population density and size are in accordance with those verified for congeners. The conservation of this species benefits the environments and other species that inhabit them, being, therefore, strategic for receiving conservation actions that will spread throughout the ecosystem.

Long-term assessments of targeted fish populations inside and outside areas closed to fishing are often necessary to elucidate these effects, yet few of these studies extend over long time periods. We assessed trends in the abundance and length of six targeted fish species in areas open and closed to fishing on seven occasions spanning a 9-year period (2005–2010 and 2013) at the Houtman Abrolhos Islands, Western Australia. Shallow (8–12 m) and deep (22–26 m) coral-dominated reef sites were sampled across four geographically separated island groups using baited remote underwater stereo-video (stereo-BRUV). Between 2005 and 2010, populations of Lethrinus miniatus, Lethrinus nebulosus, Plectropomus leopardus, and Chrysophrys auratus became increasingly dominated by larger individuals, potentially indicative of an ageing population. Between 2010 and 2013, however, there was a significant increase in the proportion of smaller L. miniatus, L. nebulosus, and P. leopardus in both open and closed areas, reflecting increased recruitment perhaps due to changing environmental conditions associated with a marine heat wave anomaly. This recruitment pulse was not observed for the other species in this study (Chr. auratus, Choerodon rubescens, and Glaucosoma hebraicum). Lethrinus miniatus, L. nebulosus, Chr. auratus, and P. leopardus were larger in closed areas relative to open areas; however, they were not more abundant. These complex responses to protection also varied across sampling years for certain species (e.g., P. leopardus). Monitoring changes over the long-term in areas open and closed to fishing provides a sound basis for separating environmental variability from that associated with fishing mortality, which is crucial for optimising fisheries management. © 2015, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.",,1297-1312,,4,34,,Coral Reefs,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Verlag,,,,abundance; Anthozoa; anthropogenic effect; AREAS; Choerodon rubescens; CHOERODON-RUBESCENS; Chrysophrys auratus; climate change; coral reef; CORAL-REEF FISH; demersal fish; environmental monitoring; Fish abundance; Fish length; fishery management; Fishing closures; Glaucosoma hebraicum; Houtman Abrolhos; Houtman Abrolhos Islands; Lethrinus miniatus; Lethrinus nebulosus; long-term change; Long-term monitoring; Marine heat wave; MARINE RESERVES; mortality; MOVEMENT PATTERNS; NEW-ZEALAND; Plectropomus leopardus; recruitment (population dynamics); REPRODUCTIVE-BIOLOGY; sampling; SIZE; STEREO-VIDEO SYSTEM; TROUT PLECTROPOMUS-LEOPARDUS; underwater camera,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Subsequently, they were filtered through inclusion and exclusion criteria, reducing the set to 85 articles, which were included for content analysis. The main result was, that the studies have been approached from seven thematic lines (impact assessment, tourism planning and management, ecological preservation, tourism development, territorialization and appropriation of space, community organization models, and sustainable development) under 30 multidisciplinary approaches. ; At the same time, a set of 51 problems derived from unplanned ecotourism management were identified, the most frequent being: management of service providers, coordination and linkage, distribution of benefits, territorialization and transformation of space, and deforestation. .

A targeted literature review was guided by three research questions, which sought to understand how neoliberal concepts and dynamics manifest in private forms of conservation; how private forms of conservation have manifested in Chile; and, how Chileans’ attitudes towards their government’s neoliberal policies might affect their expectations of PPAs. The search strategy resulted in 284 resources. Three dimensions of neoliberal approaches to PPAs emerged from the data each highlighting specific vulnerabilities: a loss of the social embeddedness of nature; an imposition of global, capital dynamics; and conflicting discourses and assumptions. Results suggest that, in order to improve long-term support and integration of PPAs and NBT, greater attention needs to be given to social well-being outcomes (including equity and justice concerns), building of social capital, and the preservation of local identities and histories. Additionally, regional and PPA-specific land-use planning needs to incorporate greater public engagement, cross-jurisdictional coordination, and transparent and inclusive decision-making. © 2020 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.",,2631-2648,,11,30,,J.

For this reason, the European Union Habitat Directive included them among priority habitats to be preserved. Although their ecological role is well established, connectivity patterns are still poorly investigated, representing a limit in conservation planning. The present study pioneers a novel approach for the analysis of connectivity in marine bioconstructor species, which often lack suitable genetic markers, by taking advantage of next?generation sequencing techniques. We assess the geographical patterns of genomic variation of the sunset cup coral Leptopsammia pruvoti Lacaze?Duthiers, 1897, an ahermatypic, non?zooxanthellate and solitary scleractinian coral species common in coralligenous habitats and distributed across the Mediterranean Sea. Location: The Italian coastline (Western and Central Mediterranean). Methods: We applied the restriction site?associated 2b?RAD approach to genotype over 1,000 high?quality and filtered single nucleotide polymorphisms in 10 population samples. Results: The results revealed the existence of a strongly supported genetic structure, with highly significant pairwise FST values between all the population samples, including those collected about 5 km apart from each other. Moreover, genomic data indicate that the strongest barriers to gene flow are between the western (Ligurian–Tyrrhenian Sea) and the eastern side (Adriatic Sea) of the Italian peninsula. Main conclusions: The strong differentiation found in L. pruvoti is similar to that found in other species of marine bioconstructors investigated in this area, but it strongly contrasts with the small differences found in many fish and invertebrates at the same geographical scale. All in one, our results highlight the importance of assessing connectivity in species belonging to coralligenous habitats as, due to their limited dispersal ability, they might require specific spatial conservation measures. © 2019 The Authors.",,1101-1117,,7,25,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,Adriatic Sea; Anthozoa; aquatic organism; Bioconstructors; biodiversity; conservation genetics; coral; Dendrophylliidae; gene flow; genetic marker; genetic structure; genomics; genotype; Invertebrata; Italian coastline; Italy; Leptopsammia pruvoti; marine environment; Marine protected areas; Mediterranean Sea; Population genomics; Scleractinia; Single nucleotide polymorphisms; species conservation; Tyrrhenian Sea,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Reporting on size-based indicators that link to food-web structure can contribute to ecosystem-based management, but the application of these indicators over large (cross-ecosystem) geographical scales has been limited to either fisheries-dependent catch data or diver-based methods restricted to shallow waters (<20 m) that can misrepresent the abundance of large-bodied fished species. We obtained data on the body-size structure of 82 recreationally or commercially targeted marine demersal teleosts from 2904 deployments of baited remote underwater stereo-video (stereo-BRUV). Sampling was at up to 50 m depth and covered approximately 10,000 km of the continental shelf of Australia. Seascape relief, water depth, and human gravity (i.e., a proxy of human impacts) were the strongest predictors of the probability of occurrence of large fishes and the abundance of fishes above the minimum legal size of capture. No-take marine reserves had a positive effect on the abundance of fishes above legal size, although the effect varied across species groups. In contrast, sublegal fishes were best predicted by gradients in sea surface temperature (mean and variance). In areas of low human impact, large fishes were about three times more likely to be encountered and fishes of legal size were approximately five times more abundant. For conspicuous species groups with contrasting habitat, environmental, and biogeographic affinities, abundance of legal-size fishes typically declined as human impact increased. Our large-scale quantitative analyses highlight the combined importance of seascape complexity, regions with low human footprint, and no-take marine reserves in protecting large-bodied fishes across a broad range of species and ecosystem configurations. © 2021 The Authors.

People are drawn by the desire to do sport, preferably in close contact with nature, so as to complement healthy lifestyles, and in search of air purity. Sporting organizations are increasingly searching for new locations that do not only attract athletes, but spectators and companions too. Races in natural parks provide the additional benefit of doing sport in a unique space, usually a transmitter of simplicity, pure air, and tranquillity. Organizing a mountain race in a natural park implies some issues. These are areas of great environmental richness that must be protected. Natural parks are places of individual recreational activity. Within the running phenomenon, a new type of mountain race has appeared: the hiking-oriented pilgrimage, in which athletes travel ancestral paths, pilgrimage routes thus combining sport practice with spirituality. This paper aims to analyse all the actions and policies that were carried out for the peaceful integration and coexistence of two totally different events that coincide physically and temporally: the Penyagolosa Trails race, and the Peregrins de les Useres, an ancestral pilgrimage that is carried out by each and every one of the towns belonging to the Penyagolosa Natural Park.

As a marine protected area, its main objective is biodiversity conservation, although nature-based tourism and nautical activities are allowed. This research focused on the application of the Coastal Scenery Evaluation System (CSES) method along the entire PNC coastline. Based on two field visits, covering more than 200 km of coastline, 42 beaches were identified and evaluated, the vast majority in highly natural conditions. Similarly, five beaches were analyzed for biological data associated with the diversity of coastal fauna, as a preliminary inventory. The result of the CSES fuzzy logic calculation classified 64% of the beaches in the two highest scenery grades, with only 3 beaches in class IV, and none in class V. Regarding the biological data, macroinvertebrates were mostly represented by 13 mollusks, 1 echinoderm and 1 crustacean. In addition to scientific results, the research identified those beaches with the potential to be certified as coastal scenery of heritage value. In conclusion, this evaluation will help guide nature-based tourism actions within the PNC, and will serve as a baseline for future monitoring of the impact that tourism activity may have on beach fauna and natural attributes. © 2024, National Institute of Fisheries Research and Development.

We show how sustainability depends on the fraction of natural larval settlement (FNLS) remaining after reserves are implemented, which in turn depends on reserve configuration and larval dispersal distance. Sustainability requires FNLS to be greater than an empirically determined minimum. Maintaining an adequate value for all species requires either a large, unlikely fraction (> 35%) of coastline in reserves, or reserves that are larger than the mean larval dispersal distance of the target species. FNLS is greater for species dispersing shorter distances, which implies reserves can lead to: (1) changes in community composition and (2) genetic selection for shorter dispersal distance.

For both of these goals, there is a need for general principles on which to base marine reserve design, and because of the paucity of empirical experience, these principles must be based on models. However, most of the theoretical studies to date have been specific to a single situation, with few attempts to deduce general principles. Here we attempt to distill existing results into general principles useful to designers of marine reserves. To answer the question of how fishery management using reserves compares to conventional management, we provide two principles: (1) the effect of reserves on yield per recruit is similar to increasing the age of first capture, and (2) the effect of reserves on yield is similar to reducing effort. Another two principles answer the question of how to design reserve configurations so that species with movement in various stages will be sustainable: (3) higher juvenile and adult movement lowers sustainability of reserves for biodiversity, but an intermediate level of adult movement is required for reserves for fishery management, and (4) longer larval dispersal distance requires larger reserves for sustainability. These principles provide general guidelines for design, and attention to them will allow more rapid progress in future modeling studies.

This diversity is explained in terms of target species, gears, and fishing strategies. The main objective of this work was to investigate the spatio-temporal dynamics of artisanal SSFs of the future MPA of ""Taza"" (Algeria, SW Mediterranean). Data were collected through direct assessment of daily landings and using questionnaires. They were the subject of multivariate analyses that allowed us to identify the métiers practiced by artisanal fishers. During the one year (May 2013 to April 2014) field work period, 1330 fishing trips and 1613 fishing operations in 16 fishing grounds were recorded in the Ziama fishing harbor, where 15.2 tons of total catch was assessed. Our results show that, in the study area, the boats are predominantly gillnetters and that among the five métiers characterized by target species, gear type, fishing grounds, and fishing seasons, two métiers (""Mullus surmuletus trammel net"" and ""Sparids monofilament gillnet"") are practiced throughout the year, while the remaining three (""Sarda sarda driftnet"", ""Merluccius merluccius set gillnet"", and ""Pagellus set gillnet"") are specific to a determined period of the year. The 'Mullus surmuletus trammel net' métier represents 40% of the total fishing operations, of which 57.5% are carried out in the coastal sector at - 25 m. This study could contribute to defining the appropriate management approaches for SSFs in the future MPA of ""Taza"" by providing baseline information to build a sound management plan. In Algeria, it will certainly serve as a scientific reference in terms of zoning, protection of biodiversity, and specific monitoring at particular locations and periods of the year for the sustainable management of MPAs. © 2018 Mediterranean Marine Science.",,555-571,,3,19,,Mediterr.

Data were collected through interviews and participatory mapping. To this end, 30 face-to-face semi-structured interviews were conducted between June and September 2017 with fishers, collecting socioeconomic, biological, and ecological information in the fishing harbor of Ziama (Jijel, NE Algeria). The case study focuses on both professional and recreational coastal fisheries. This fishing harbor is located in the eastern part of the Gulf of Béjaia, a Bay located within the area of this future MPA, but outside its boundaries. Based on fishers' LK, cartography of fishing grounds within the MPA perimeter was obtained, while the perceived healthy bottom habitats and polluted areas in the Gulf were mapped by the use of a hard copy map. The results show that fishers present detailed knowledge that is consistent with literature about different target species and their breeding seasons, showing awareness about the reserve effects ‘spillover’ in enhancing local fisheries. Overall, the fishers noted that the good management of the MPA relies on limiting trawling in coastal areas and avoiding land-based pollution within the Gulf. Some of such management measures are already included in the proposed zoning plan, but lack of enforcement is a perceived constraint. Given the gap observed between the two shores of the Mediterranean Sea in terms of both financial resources and MPA coverage, the use of local knowledge system (e.g., fishers' LK and their perceptions) can enable the implementation of a cost-effective method to encourage the creation of new MPAs in the Southern shore for more ecological representativeness systems of MPAs at a Mediterranean scale. Therefore, this work offers management opportunities that may be used for addressing the lack of scientific knowledge in managing coastal fishing and valuing MPAs in Southern Mediterranean low-income countries characterized by a data-poor context. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,344,,J.

The case study focuses on both commercial and recreational coastal fisheries from the fishing harbour of Ziama (NE Algeria). In this area, coastal fishing is carried out by professional small-scale fishers and purse seiners for commercial fishery and by recreational boat fishers for recreational fishery. While there have been some science-based studies in the characterization of this coastal fishery by using direct observation of landings as a method for estimating catch and fishing effort, fishermen's LEK remains under-utilized in this Social-Ecological System (SES). To address this knowledge gap, perceptions regarding: (1) biological and ecological impacts of coastal fisheries, (2) marine ecosystem health and (3) attitudes towards the proposed MPA regulations were analyzed in order to assess potential social-ecological impacts which can inform more accurately on MPA planning and fisheries management in the future. To this end, thirty face-to-face semi-structured interviews with fishers at Ziama harbour were carried out between June and September 2017. The study found that the future establishment of the “Taza” MPA may affect the fisheries in this area in the short-term, and in particular the jobs and livelihoods of professional fishers by limiting the fishing area through new fishing restrictions. The fishermen's LEK provided some capacity to understand the heterogeneity of the SES in place and may be used as a tool to evaluate the outcome of fishery management actions. The results indicate higher acceptance rates among recreational than professional fishers regarding no-take zones. Professional fishers were proportionately more likely to oppose the new regulations, though 53% of the fishers surveyed were uncertain about the future positive impacts of the MPA. The LEK provides managers with a level of detail about the prediction and prevention of fishermen opposition, and can point out opportunities for improving conservation policy with respect to social acceptance. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,221,,Ocean Coast.

Spatial management and marine zoning, along with education, enforcement, and appropriate signage can reduce this stress. Yet, achieving conservation goals with marine zoning depends on social and organizational factors. Coproduction models that work collaboratively with stakeholders in marine zone or protected area (MPA) planning can improve conservation outcomes. The Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS; U.S.) encompasses one of the largest seagrass meadows in the world, with the mission to balance marine use with conservation of natural resources. Over the last twelve years, FKNMS has experienced exponential increases in leisure boating, which is having important consequences to the functioning of its managed coastal ecosystems. Following a decade-long planning process, in 2022 FKNMS released a revised draft management plan that uses marine zoning to increase the resilience of FKNMS natural resources by reducing local stresses on the system. In the decade leading to the release of this management plan, for-hire coastal fishers worked with scientists to coproduce comprehensive marine zoning recommendations to reduce leisure boating stresses to seagrass habitats that support important fisheries. Coproduced zoning recommendations would protect 100% and 60% more seagrass and living bottom compared to the FKNMS plan. These recommendations would create an MPA network protecting two seagrass meadows that are centers of activity for important fishery species that form spawning aggregations within a seasonal no fishing MPA. This example highlights how long-term investment in coproduction can result in more comprehensive management plans supported by stakeholders. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,167,,Mar.

Here, we implemented a mark-recapture study in the Bahamas Archipelago to estimate patterns of site fidelity, and to determine what homesites are connected to pre-spawning sites of economically important Bonefish (Albula vulpes) across multiple islands. We captured over 7000 Bonefish via seine netting, marked them with dart tags, and relied on fishing guides and anglers to report recaptures on Abaco, Grand Bahama, and Andros. Mark-recapture results from the three islands showed that 60–80% of Bonefish were recaptured within 5 km of their tagging site. Across the three islands, mean distance between mark and recapture was less than 11 km, suggesting space use that is tractable for effective marine reserve implementation. We also found that pre-spawning sites housed individuals from multiple homesites that were separated by distances up to 75 km. With these connections in mind, conserving Bonefish spawning biomass necessitates habitat protection in multiple home areas, along migratory corridors, and at pre-spawn and spawning locations. Our case study illustrates how mark-recapture of a C&R species can be used to identify habitats for protection. Information from this mark-recapture study contributed to the designation of six National Parks aimed at protecting habitats used by Bonefish, as well as other spatially overlapping species. © 2018, Springer Nature B.V.",,185-195,,2,102,,Environ.

We explored the respective contributions of environmental factors and human impacts in capturing the distribution of an assemblage of commercially valuable, large-bodied, open-water predators (tunas, marlins and mackerels). Location: Western Australia. Time period: 1997–2006. Major taxa studied: Pelagic fishes. Methods: We compiled 10 years of commercial fishing records from the Sea Around Us Project and derived relative abundance indices from standardized catch rates while accounting for confounding effects of effort, year and gear type. We used these indices to map pelagic hotspots over a 0.5°-resolution grid and built random forests to estimate the importance of 33 geophysical, oceanographic and anthropogenic predictors in explaining their locations. We additionally examined the spatial congruence between these hotspots and an extensive network of marine reserves and determined whether patterns of co-occurrence deviated from random expectations using null model simulations. Results: First, we identified several pelagic hotspots off the coast of Western Australia. Second, geomorphometrics explained up to 50% of the variance in relative abundance of pelagic fishes, and submarine canyon presence ranked as the most influential variable in the North bioregion. Seafloor complexity, geodiversity, salinity, temperature variability, primary production, ocean energy, current regimes and human impacts were also identified as important predictors. Third, spatial overlap between hotspots and marine reserves was limited, with most high-abundance areas primarily found in zones where anthropogenic activities are subject to few regulations. Main conclusions: This study reveals geomorphometrics as valuable indicators of the distribution of mobile fish species and highlights the relevance of harnessing static topography as a key element in any blueprint for ocean zoning and spatial management. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,1098-1111,,10,26,,Global Ecol.

The aim of this study was also to detect the ecological descriptors able to characterize the state of health of coral communities by remote sensing. The species richness of coral communities, the most simple indicator of the biodiversity of the studied area, as well as diversity indices, revealed to be descriptors particularly stable and very little reactive to the degradation of the reef community. The coverage rate of the bottom by corals may be very different from one reef to another one or from one area to another one on the same reef. This does not necessarily imply the existence of a difference in the state of health between the communities. The most relevant criteria revealed to be associated with the state of health of coral colonies and the abundance of juvenile recruits. For the other components of the reef benthic community, the most pertinent descriptor was the ratio of the bottom covered with algal turf (healthy reefs) to that occupied by macro-algae (damaged reefs). These ecological descriptors revealed to be easy to estimate in a reproducible manner by observers who are not specialists of reef ecology.

As more semi-natural grasslands are incorporated into conservation easements or other protected areas, questions arise about appropriate management for maintaining biodiversity. We conducted an 8. year split-plot experiment on the effect of season of burn and nutrient status on plant composition in semi-natural grassland released from ranchland management. Our objective was to find alternative approaches to manage semi-natural grasslands under varying nutrient enrichment when typical ranch management is ceased. We predicted that: (1) burning at high fertility would counteract competitive exclusion and increase diversity and that this increase would be greatest in the historical fire season (summer) to which species are adapted; and (2) that plant composition in plots released from disturbance would shift to greater abundance of competitive species, including shrubs, which would displace smaller grass and forb species and result in reduced diversity. Total species richness and graminoid richness were lowest in unburned, ungrazed plots. Graminoid richness was greatest in winter burned-grazed plots (due mainly to sedges) and forb richness was greatest in summer burn plots. In unburned plots, after 5. years, a native shrub, Eupatorium capillifolium (Lam.) Small, and native forb, Lachnanthes caroliniana (Lam.) Dandy, became abundant and grasses declined. Winter burn plots were dominated by a small shrub, Euthamia graminifolia (L.) Nutt. var. hirtipes (Fernald) C. and J. Taylor. Our experiment suggests that maintaining grassland structure and reducing shrub cover in grasslands released from typical ranchland management in subtropical Florida requires burning, and that summer is the most beneficial season of burn to reduce shrub encroachment and encourage both graminoid and forb richness. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,239-247,,,158,,Biol.

Rather than imposing a marine reserve on our model, we ask, “When and where should a marine reserve be implemented ?” For one-dimensional habitat, we determine conditions under which marine reserves emerge as a part of the optimal policy. Depending upon the size of the habitat, the optimal strategy is either to avoid fishing or to fish at maximum rate. The effect of ocean currents is analyzed through numerical simulations. We find that in the presence of strong currents, a marine reserve may become ineffective.

It has been developed to apply conservation objectives at different levels of management where conflicting uses can be taking place. GIS is increasingly used to solve land allocation problem with techniques based on zoning, varying from simple overlays to complex multi-criteria evaluation techniques (MCE). This study presents a new approach to the development of zoning plans for Ramsar sites that exhibit major seasonal variations in conservation value and human use and threats. It employs a well-defined GIS-based MCE technique which involves both expert judgment and a set of criteria based on ecological and potential threats. A GIS model using the additive approach in MCE was developed to evaluate Sabkhat Al-Jabboul the only Ramsar site in Syria. The model was applied separately for the spring and winter to accommodate seasonal changes in the intensity and spatial distribution of conservation areas and threats across the site. Separate zoning plans were developed for each of the two main seasons. The zoning plan of the spring season, which is the birds breeding season, included three management zones; the special conservation zone, the conservation buffer zone, and the wise use zone. The winter zoning plan, where the bird feeding activity was the major activity includes two zones: a special conservation zone and a wise use zone. Thus, in cases like Sabkhat Al-Jabboul, where the wetlands are subject to significant seasonal variations, in their ecology and human utilization, it is recommended that flexible seasonal zoning plans are developed to assist in the organization of permitted activities, and to reduce the potential human impacts throughout the year. © 2017, Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,253-264,,3,26,,Wetlands Ecol.

While relationships between fishes and large hard-substrate cold-water corals (CWC) (e.g., Desmophyllum pertusum reefs) have frequently been studied, there are relatively fewer studies examining the relationships of fish with habitats specifically provided by smaller corals (e.g., sea pens) in soft-bottom environments. Despite this knowledge gap around soft-bottom corals, growing evidence of their importance has nonetheless justified their inclusion as conservation targets in numerous Marine Protected Areas (MPA), including the Canadian Laurentian Channel MPA. Here, we performed ROV and near-seabed drift-camera system surveys within the Laurentian Channel MPA in 2017 and 2018 to assess the influence of fish body size and habitat type on fish small-scale distribution in a low-relief deep-sea soft-sediment environment. We compared the local size structure of the four most abundant deep-sea demersal fish taxa of the channel (Redfish (Sebastes spp.), Witch Flounder (Glyptocephalus cynoglossus), Marlin-Spike Grenadier (Nezumia bairdii) and Longfin Hake (Phycis chesteri)) across one barren and five structural benthic habitats defined by the presence of nine dominant epibenthic invertebrates (actiniarians and CWCs). We used generalized additive models to identify biotic (benthic habitats) and abiotic (depth, bottom types) covariates of size for each taxon. We observed 15,381 fish within the 43.6-ha study area, of which 7,511 fish were measured. Juveniles represented 99% of all fish measured, with a notable increase in average fish size in 2018. While we did not find any associations between benthic habitats and fish life stages, the analysis revealed a significant increase in fish size within sea pen habitats for all four taxa. Conversely, we found a taxon-specific influence of bottom type on fish size for all taxa. In addition, Redfish and Longfin Hake size was positively correlated with depth. For deep-sea demersal fish taxa of the MPA, our results suggest that 1) sea pens provide nursery habitat for early-life stages, 2) fish undergo ontogenetic shifts in micro-habitat use and specialization, and 3) fish-habitat associations appear to be facultative rather than obligate. Through the use of in-situ video data, this study provided evidence that small and large fish do not use the same micro-habitats, and that sea pens contribute significantly to fish habitat despite providing less habitat heterogeneity than reef-forming scleractinians or large gorgonians. These results contribute to empirical understanding of fish-habitat relationships at different fish life stages and may inform fisheries management, as well as monitoring efforts in the MPA and other protected deep-sea environments. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,218,,Deep-Sea Res.

This paper describes a small no-take zone (NTZ) set up in the Clyde, Scotland, for conservation purposes, and examines its effect on the abundance of two commercially fished scallops, Pecten maximus and Aequipecten opercularis, 5 years after closure. Scallop fishing immediately outside the NTZ has continued since this closure, although at lower intensities, with overall landings in the Clyde and landings per unit area rising until 2013, suggesting a slight increase in regional abundance. There was neither a significant increase in adult scallop abundance within the NTZ nor evidence of the dispersal of adults into surrounding areas. Transient dynamics and the small size of the NTZ may have played a role in the lack of demonstrable scallop recovery. The practice of ‘selling’ small conservation MPAs in terms of meeting wider fisheries objectives is discussed in light of this result. © 2018 Crown copyright.

Theileria annulata preferentially infects macrophages in vivo. It is controlled largely by means of live, attenuated vaccines, which are produced by prolonged tissue culture of the schizont-infected cells. The immunity induced in animals, which have either recovered from an infection or have been vaccinated (with an attenuated vaccine), is broad, solid and cell mediated. It is considered that the main effector cells are cytostatic macrophages that produce nitric oxide. Subsidiary roles for bovine leucocyte antigen (BoLA)-restricted, transiently appearing, cytotoxic T cells, and possibly also natural killer (NK) cells, have been identified. Cytokines such as tumour necrosis factor ? (TNF-?) may have important roles, particularly in the induction of pathology. Matrix metalloproteinases have been implicated in the metastatic behaviour of schizont-infected cells. The nature of the protective schizont target antigens remains unknown. Attempts to develop a subunit vaccine have focused upon a sporozoite antigen (SPAG-1) and a merozoite antigen (Tams1). Both SPAG-1 and Tams1 have given partial protection using different delivery systems and adjuvants, but further vaccine development will probably require identification of a range of other antigens, especially from the schizont stage. Theileria parva has a tropism for T cells. Vaccination is currently by the 'infection and treatment' method, which involves challenging with a controlled dose of sporozoite stabilate and the simultaneous administration of long-acting tetracyclines. The immunity thus induced is mediated by BoLA-restricted cytotoxic T cells, which recognize polymorphic schizont antigens. These antigens have not been characterized at the molecular level. However, the polymorphic nature of the target antigens underlies the fact that the immunity is very strain specific - a situation that distinguishes T. parva from T. annulata. Interestingly, it is not possible to produce an attenuated vaccine to T. parva, as T. parva requires up to two orders of magnitude more schizonts in order to achieve transfer to the new host. A suggested reason for this is that the macrophage targets of T. annulata are phagocytes and thus the schizont has a natural, efficient route of entry whilst the preferred host of T. parva is the non-phagocytic T cell. Analysis of the cytotoxic T-cell response has revealed evidence of BoLA haplotype dominance plus competition between parasite epitopes. Subunit vaccination using a recombinant sporozoite antigen (p67) has proved very promising, with levels of protection of the order of 70% being achieved. A proportion of the protected calves exhibits complete sterile immunity. Interestingly, the basis for this immunity is not clear, since there is no correlation between the titre of antibodies that inhibit sporozoite penetration of lymphocytes and protection. Similarly, there is no significant T-cell response that distinguishes the protected and susceptible animals. These data are very encouraging, but other components, particularly those derived from the schizont, need to be identified and characterized. The mild Theileria species of Japan and Korea (termed T. sergenti in the literature) cause fever and severe chronic anaemia. The schizont stage of the life cycle is very rare and the host cell type is not known. The pathology is associated with chronic piroplasm infection. Immunity can be induced by immunizing with crude piroplasm extracts. Serological analysis of immune sera reveals that the immunodominant antigen is a polypeptide of 30-33 kDa, which corresponds to the protective T. annulata polypeptide Tams1. Passive immunity can be transferred with a monoclonal antibody to this 30-33 kDa molecule. Active immunization with a synthetic p32 antigen afforded protection against clinical symptoms and parasitaemia, confirming the importance of this antigen. A subunit vaccine against T. sergenti will therefore almost certainly include the 30-33 kDa antigen. As yet there is no subunit vaccine sufficiently protective against any of the Theileria species to allow widespread field usage. The focus of research, particularly for T. annulata and T. parva, is the identification of the protective schizont antigens. The use of naked DNA delivery systems is also likely to be the method of choice, since the full spectrum of immunity, including T-cell responses, can be provoked. The vectors will most probably include selective immunopotentiators such as cytokine genes. It is likely that the vaccines that emerge will be multicomponent, being composed of several antigens from each life-cycle stage. Much of the research into vaccine development will, however, be empirical.",,41-97,,,44,,Adv.

How has the ecosystem-services perspective been integrated into strategies for aquatic habitat conservation? Literature on conservation of diverse freshwater and marine habitats was reviewed to assess the extent to which past and current strategies specifically targeted ecosystem services, and considered ecosystem functions, potential trade-offs and social issues when formulating protection measures for conserving aquatic habitats. Surprisingly few published examples exist where comprehensive assessment of ecosystem services supported development of conservation plans. Seldom were aquatic habitat conservation objectives framed in terms of balancing trade-offs, assessing social values and evaluating suites of ecosystem services under different strategies. Time frames for achieving these objectives were also rarely specified. There was no evidence for fundamental differences between marine and freshwater habitats with respect to their ecosystem services that should be considered when setting targets for their conservation. When an ecosystem-service perspective is used for setting objectives in aquatic habitat conservation, the following actions are recommended: (1) explicitly listing and evaluating full suites of ecosystem services to be conserved; (2) identifying current and future potential trade-offs arising from conservation; (3) specifying time frames within which particular strategies might protect or enhance desired services; and (4) predicting how different proposed strategies might affect each ecosystem function, service flow and public benefit. This approach will help ensure that less-apparent ecosystem services (e.g. regulating, supporting) and their associated ecosystem functions receive adequate recognition and protection in aquatic conservation of freshwater and marine habitats. However, conservation objectives should not focus solely on protecting or enhancing ecosystem services but complement current strategies targeting biodiversity and other conservation goals.

To limit these impacts, protected areas will be implemented as part of the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework. Simultaneously, as an answer to climate change, renewable energies are being rapidly developed on a worldwide scale, leading to a significant increase in space use in the coming decades. Sharing space is an increasingly complex task, especially because of the high rate of emergence of such competitors for space. In fisheries-dominated socio-ecosystems, acceptability of offshore windfarms (OWFs) and marine protected areas (MPAs) is usually very low, partly due to an underrepresentation of fisheries in spatial plans and poor attention to equity in the spatial distribution of restrictive areas. Here we developed a framework with a marine spatial planning case study in the Bay of Biscay represented by the socio-ecosystem of the Grande Vasičre, a mid-shelf mud belt spanning over 21,000 km2. We collected biological, environmental, and anthropogenic data to model the distribution of 62 bentho-demersal species, 7 regulating ES layers related to nutrient cycling, life cycle maintenance and food web functioning, as well as provisioning ES of 18 commercial species and 82 fisheries subdivisions. We used these spatial layers and a prioritization algorithm to explore siting scenarios of OWFs and two types of MPAs (benthic and total protection), aimed at conserving species, regulating and provisioning ES, while also ensuring that fisheries are equitably impacted. We demonstrate that equitable scenarios are not necessarily costlier and provide alternative spatial prioritizations. We emphasize the importance of exploring multiple targets with a Shiny app to visualize results and stimulate dialogue among stakeholders and policymakers. Overall, we show how our flexible, inclusive framework with particular attention to equity could be an ideal discussion tool to improve management practices. © 2023",,,,,339,,J. Environ.

However, characterizing the connectivity among populations remains one of the greatest challenges for the effective conservation of an increasing number of endangered species. Achieving conservation targets requires an understanding of which seascape features influence dispersal and subsequent genetic structure. This is particularly challenging for adult-disperser species, and when distribution-wide sampling is difficult. Here, we developed a two-step modelling framework to investigate how seascape features drive the genetic connectivity of marine species without larval dispersal, to better guide the design of marine protected area networks and corridors. We applied this framework to the endangered grey reef shark, Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos, a reef-associated shark distributed across the tropical Indo-Pacific. In the first step, we developed a seascape genomic approach based on isolation-by-resistance models involving circuit theory applied to 515 shark samples, genotyped for 4991 nuclear single-nucleotide polymorphisms. We show that deep oceanic areas act as strong barriers to dispersal, while proximity to habitat facilitates dispersal. In the second step, we predicted the resulting genetic differentiation across the entire distribution range of the species, providing both local and global-scale conservation units for future management guidance. We found that grey reef shark populations are more fragmented than expected for such a mobile species, raising concerns about the resilience of isolated populations under high anthropogenic pressures. We recommend the use of this framework to identify barriers to gene flow and to help in the delineation of conservation units at different scales, together with its integration across multiple species when considering marine spatial planning. © 2022 The Authors.

They support fisheries production, climate change mitigation, water quality improvement, and coastal protection. Faced with the current global crisis of accelerating losses of this key component of coastal environments, strong efforts have been expended within the conservation movement to flatten their decline curve. Although understanding the functioning of seagrass ecosystems and how they respond to stressors has improved over the last years, major gaps exist for West Africa including basic ecological and distributional knowledge. This study aimed to investigate, for the first time, the structural development and dynamics of two Cymodocea nodosa meadows in Al Hoceima National Park (the unique official marine protected area of the Mediterranean Moroccan coast) using the reconstruction techniques as an indirect measurement of seagrass growth. C. nodosa’s leaves were remarkably invaded by epiphytes while leaf production, shoot density, above and belowground biomass, and vertical and horizontal rhizome elongation were in the lowest recorded values. Shoot age structure showed that since the second-year class, the survival rate of shoots has decreased. Regarding the severely slow recruitment rates, the populations’ net growths declined. Besides this negative growth trend, CymoSkewm biotic index assigned a slightly polluted ecological status to both meadows. The seagrass faces numerous pressures, mainly fishing by trawling and alien species invasion. The primary conservation challenge for C. nodosa of Al Hoceima National Park is ensuring that this marine protected area becomes operationally implemented and actively managed. Until then, the seagrass habitat-forming species is not safeguarded. © 2022, Mediterranean Marine Science. All Rights Reserved.",,754-765,,4,23,,Mediterr. Mar.

Populations of young sharks that rely on shallow coastal habitats, e.g. as nursery areas, may be at risk of experiencing these stressors. The purpose of this study was to characterize various components of the physiological stress response of neonatal reef sharks following exposure to an exhaustive challenge under relevant environmental conditions. To accomplish this, we monitored markers of the secondary stress response and measured oxygen uptake rates (MO2) to compare to laboratory-derived baseline values in neonatal blacktip reef (Carcharhinus melanopterus) and sickle?n lemon sharks (Negaprion acutidens). Measurements occurred over three hours following exposure to an exhaustive challenge (gill-net capture with air exposure). Blood lactate concentrations and pH deviated from baseline values at the 3-h sample, indicating that both species were still stressed 3 h after capture. Evidence of a temperature e?ect on physiological status of either species was equivocal over 28-31°C. However, aspects of the physiological response were species-speci?c; N. acutidens exhibited a larger di?erence in blood pH relative to baseline values than C. melanopterus, possibly owing to higher minimum MO2. Neither species experienced immediate mortality during the exhaustive challenge; although, single instances of delayed mortality were documented for each species. Energetic costs and recovery times could be extrapolated for C. melanopterus via respirometry; sharks were estimated to expend 9.9 kJ kg?1 (15% of energy expended on daily swimming) for a single challenge and could require 8.4 h to recover. These data suggest that neonatal C. melanopterus and N. acutidens are resilient to brief gill-net capture durations, but this was under a narrow temperature range. De?ning species' vulnerability to stressors is important for understanding the e?cacy of shark conservation tools, including MPAs. © The Author(s) 2018.

We identified suitable areas by using recent presence records and environmental predictors, and overlapped it with the species dispersion zone and the SHP impact zone. Suitable areas for the species are limited to 4% of the geographic space (142,899 km2).

This programme, initiated in 2000, is focused on the Motueka River catchment and Tasman Bay. The Motueka catchment is sparsely populated, but is a heavily used and highly productive landscape at the top of South Island, New Zealand. Important land uses include commercial forestry, irrigated berry and pip fruit production, dry land pasturing (sheep), and, increasingly, irrigated dairy farming. Large portions of the headwater areas are recreational park and conservation lands. The Motueka River itself is internationally known as a trout fishery and reaches of the river are an important habitat for native and threatened Galaxiid fish. Tasman Bay, which receives 65% of its freshwater inflow from the Motueka River, is a commercially important scallop and mussel fishery, contains a nationally important marine sanctuary, and is widely used as a recreational resource. Currently, water quality in the area is generally high, although it is threatened by some land uses. Water quantity has been a persistent concern in this seasonally dry region of New Zealand and is the subject of a Water Conservation Order that has focussed attention on the need for a stakeholder-driven, integrated approach to water resources management.

An emergent tool is the Freshwater Protected Area (FPA), a zone of restricted use and access within freshwater systems analogous to terrestrial or marine protected areas that aim to conserve constituent resources. These protected areas are often criticized for their inability to control pollution inputs and their tendency to be implemented only as components of terrestrial parks, meaning that they traditionally do not reflect the importance of aquatic systems or promote connectivity. This paper reassesses FPAs in the context of migratory fish conservation and addresses a variety of obstacles inhibiting FPAs from being suitable for protecting migratory fishes. Developing FPAs that encompass critical life-stage habitat for migratory species, such as spawning and nursery areas, migratory corridors, and feeding zones, is essential for ensuring ample interconnected habitat for migratory fishes to thrive and ecological and evoluitonary processes to occur. © International Society of Limnology 2014.",,01-Jun,,1,5,,Inland Waters,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Freshwater Biological Association,,,,BIODIVERSITY; CHALLENGES; connectivity; Connectivity; conservation; Conservation; CRITICAL HABITAT; diadromy; Diadromy; freshwater fish; Freshwater fish; migration; Migration; NEEDS; PASSAGE; Pisces; potamodromy; Potamodromy; protected areas; Protected areas; RECREATIONAL FISHERIES; RESTORATION; STRATEGIES; STREAM,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The captive population was founded exclusively from GBI individuals; it and all new populations contained only the common GBI haplotype. In contrast, the smaller wild population at Mimiwhangata (MIW), Northland, contained 11 mtDNA haplotypes, including the common GBI haplotype which was probably introduced by captive-sourced releases 18-20 years ago. Microsatellite allelic richness was high in wild populations compared with captive and new populations.

CM is characterized by the decentralization of the decision-making process, incorporating the governed as well as the government. ACM is characterized by the dynamic process whereby co-management decision-making is made continuously responsive to the changing ecological and socio-economic circumstances of the MPA. The authors carry out a comprehensive critical analysis of CM and ACM before applying these concepts to the case study of the Cayos Cochinos Marine Protected Area off Honduras to assess two successive management cycles, 2004-9 and 2008-13. The area was designated as an MPA in 1993, a governmental decision which was met with resentment by local communities. CM was introduced in 2004 to involve these local stakeholders in the decision-making process, but achieved limited success. In an attempt to deal with these deficiencies, ACM was adopted in the second management plan in 2008, but whereas the position of the local communities improved, it tipped the scales too far away from conservation. A third management plan is currently being prepared that promises to strike a better balance between ecological and socio-economic objectives. A central theme of the book is to examine how far the CCMPA adhered to the principles of CM and ACM respectively in its first two management plans. © 2013 Natalie Bown, Tim Gray and Selina M.

There are growing concerns about the effects of fisheries on prey availability in regions where large commercial fisheries target forage fish. For breeding seabirds and pinnipeds, prey availability depends on a combination of abundance, accessibility, patchiness and distance from the colony. An understanding of the aspects of prey availability that determine foraging success is essential for the design of effective management responses. We used a mechanistic individual-based foraging model based on observed data for two seabird species, the Peruvian Booby Sula variegata and Guanay Cormorant Phalacrocorax bougainvilliorum, to simulate the foraging patterns of seabirds feeding on schooling fish. We ran the model over simulated prey fields representing eight possible combinations of high or low prey abundance, shallow or deep prey, and broadly distributed or spatially concentrated prey. The results highlight the importance of the accessibility of prey. Depth distribution was the primary factor determining modelled foraging success for both species, followed by abundance, and then spatial configuration. Synthesis and applications. The individual-based foraging model provides a spatially explicit framework for assessing the effects of fisheries on the foraging success of seabirds and other central place foragers, and for evaluating the potential effectiveness of marine-protected areas and other fisheries management strategies for safeguarding central place foragers in dynamic ecosystems. Our analysis indicates that broad-scale fisheries management strategies that maintain forage fish above critical biomass levels are essential, but may need to be supplemented by targeted actions, such as time–area closures, when environmental conditions lead to low prey abundance or reduce prey accessibility for seabirds or pinnipeds of conservation concern. The individual-based foraging model is adaptable and could be reconfigured for application to other species and systems. © 2016 The Authors.

Marine mammal distributions are assumed to be driven by their prey in foraging areas, but limited understanding of prey distributions often prevents us from exploring how shifting prey availability impacts both seasonal and long-term marine mammal distributions. Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding could enhance the understanding of marine mammal habitat use in relation to their prey through simultaneous monitoring of both. However, eDNA applications focused on marine mammals or predator–prey dynamics have been limited to date. In this study, we assess spatiotemporal changes in the distribution and abundance of cetaceans, minke whales (Balaenoptera acutorostrata), bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) and harbor porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) in relation to key prey species in a newly established MPA, employing eDNA metabarcoding. We recovered 105 molecular operational taxonomic units (OTUs) from marine vertebrates using two primer sets targeting 12S and 16S genes, along with 112 OTUs from a broader eukaryotic primer set targeting 18S rRNA. Overall, key forage fish prey species, sandeels and clupeids, were the most abundant teleost fishes detected, although their availability varied temporally and with distance from shore. We also found clear spatial partitioning between coastal bottlenose dolphins and the more pelagic minke whales and harbor porpoises, paralleling availability of their main prey species. Other species of conservation interest were also detected including the critically endangered European eel (Anguilla anguilla), Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus), and the invasive pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha). This study demonstrates the application of eDNA to detect spatiotemporal trends in the occurrence and abundance of cetacean predators and their prey, furthering our understanding of fine-scale habitat use within MPAs. Future long-term monitoring of predator–prey dynamics with eDNA could improve our ability to predict climate-induced shifts in foraging grounds and enhance rapid responses with appropriate management actions. © 2024 The Author(s).

This study aimed to analyze the impacts of tourism that emerged in Çe?me in the last century with the help of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and contribute to planning the city with sustainable principles without losing its tourism attractiveness. The impacts of tourism on the city’s macroform development, its natural and built environment, cultural heritage, and architectural configuration were analyzed with GIS and evaluated with SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis. The study determined that the impacts of tourism on the city could be observed in the port due to the interaction with Chios, on the coastline and in the natural site area with the expansion of second homes, and in the urban site area with the historic port city identity. As a result of the study, the impacts of tourism in the city were found on the harbor and coastline, second home settlement, and historical city texture. Cruise tourism and coastal tourism pose a threat to the ecological structure of the coastline. Second home settlement adversely affects the historical silhouette of the coastline and the city while threatening its natural protected areas. The historical city texture has been restored for the city with the conservation projects created in recent years. However, its functional integration with coastal tourism is needed. In this context, the conservation development planning zones created by the Ministry of Culture are extremely important for the future of the city. However, for sustainable tourism development of the city, holistic planning focusing on the coastline, historical city, port, and Chios is required instead of sectional planning. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,9877-9902,,9,25,,Environ.

The aim of implementing risk management is to provide protection to the selected species of plants, animals and natural habitats being the most precious from the European perspective. Environmental protection during military training in the Armed Forces of the CZE implicitly includes also the risk management and is guaranteed in the following processes. The commander has to elaborate a precise environmental protection regulation as a part of planning process to be followed during a training or operation according to NATO standardization agreements. Documentation is a part of operational planning or a training regulation. It accepts the character of habitats, way of training and includes preventive measures. Environmental training of personnel, delegation of responsibilities and resources use are aimed at providing environmental security. The semi-quantitative case study has been focused on threat identification, as well as on the determination and assessment of risk acceptability in the examined NATURA 2000 site inside the military training area. A number of undesirable, but tolerable risks have been found, most of them belong to the category of controllable risks. It is possible to implement adequate countermeasures, mainly of organizational nature with minimal risk mitigation costs. It is worth mentioning that a number of risks which have relatively high values ensue solely from the planning activities, lack of discipline and knowledge of NATURA 2000 sites. No cooperation with state administration bodies, trainees' ignorance of protected species and habitats, inadequately set priorities for maintained areas belong to above mentioned category. Reduction of such risks should be given priority. Unacceptable risk is specific and results from the lack of financial resources, for the maintenance management. © 2012 WIT Press.",,381-391,,,44,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: WIT Trans.

Known for making nutrients available while reducing pollutants and the risk of pathogens in terrestrial ecosystems, Biochar and Bioferment materials of organic origin were tested during a two-year experiment. We tested the efficacy of these materials for restoration purposes through experimental concrete tiles treated with Biochar (B) and Bioferment (F) and tiles made of concrete, which were used as controls (Ct) for the colonization of marine organisms in the marine protected area of Porto Cesareo, Southern Italy (20 m depth). Tiles were monitored for photographs from October 2019 to September 2021. Initially, Biochar treatment presented a higher percentage of total benthic cover (81.23 ± 2.76, median ± SE), differing from Bioferment treatment and control tiles (45.65 ± 5.43 and 47.95 ± 3.69, respectively). Significant interaction between treatments and times suggests changes in community structure related to Polychaeta cover increase in Bioferment and control materials from the second monitoring time. Furthermore, the underwater instability of Bioferment on the tiles could explain the similarity with control tiles in marine organisms’ covers. Hence, Biochar is shown to be a material with optimal stability in seawater, demonstrating greater capacity for marine organisms’ colonization in less time compared to the other two materials. © 2024 by the authors.",,,,1,12,,J.

However, the role of monitoring in conservation is frequently diminished due to: 1) surveys being implemented in isolation, 2) limited on-ground-capacity leading to infrequent monitoring, and 3) inappropriate methods being applied. Wildlife monitoring is often resource-intensive and the utility and cost of different field protocols is rarely reported. In this study we deployed two standard field protocols aimed at collecting data on African lions within a spatial capture-recapture framework. For our first protocol, we trained Uganda Wildlife Authority rangers in search-encounter techniques, the industry gold standard for monitoring lions. The second protocol involved deploying 32 paired stations of state-of-the-art infra-red camera traps. During the search-encounter protocol, two rangers covered 2939 km in 76 days, recording 102 detections (30 individuals) in a ~ 256 km2 area. The resulting density estimates (13.91 lions/100 km2, posterior SD = 2.34) yielded acceptable precision. Conversely, 64 camera traps over 1601 trap nights yielded two usable lion detections. We argue that where wildlife tourism rangers exist, they could be a powerful addition to future lion and wildlife census attempts across the continent. Our results confirm that the current technology of store-bought infra-red camera traps is not suitable for individual identification of lions, and therefore cannot be applied to analytical models that require unambiguous individual identities. However, we encourage the continued testing and advancement of infra-red camera trap technology since in many instances, this may be preferable to white-flash camera traps, which can yield individual identities for lions. Our study also shows the immense importance of the Nile Delta for African lions in Uganda’s Murchison Falls National Park, a protected area with both oil extraction and high rates of anthropogenic snaring pressure. © The Author(s) 2024.",,,,1,7,,Commun.

The creation of such marine parks must be accompanied by careful measures to guarantee the coexistence of natural biota and human activities in these systems. The State Marine Park of Laje de Santos (SMPLS) is so close to an industrial pole and urban area that its creation and maintenance is an example for humanity. However, no program has yet been installed for the monitoring of its biotic and abiotic water parameters. Thus, the objective of this study is to provide hydrological and hydrochemical parameters with emphasis on dissolved nutrients to establish a starting point for the monitoring of these waters. The presence of the South Atlantic Central Water (SACW) in the marine park during the spring and summer sampling periods was evidenced by the observation of low temperatures (< 17şC) associated with salinity around 35 at the bottom of the water column, indicating a thermohaline feature. The dissolved oxygen presented high values, with few data below 4 mL L-1 occurring at the bottom of the water column. The pH was always in accordance with marine values (~8). Dissolved silicate and phosphate presented high values associated with inputs from the SACW intrusion, continental runoff and bottom resuspension processes, reaching maximum values of 15.86 and 1.23 µmol L-1, respectively. Nitrogen compounds were also associated with a natural fertilization process by the presence of the SACW at the bottom of the water column, as evidenced by the high nitrate concentrations (> 7.00 µmol L-1), while the concentration of N-ammonium (maximum 9.86 µmol L-1) demonstrated a rapid regeneration of the organic matter, mainly in the euphotic zone. Analysis of the data from summer periods revealed an annual difference, showing January 2014 to be drier than January 2015, which influenced the availability of some nutrients and the standard distribution of hydrochemical parameters in this region. The results of the distribution of hydrochemical parameters in the marine park confirms the preserved conditions of the seawater around the Laje de Santos, demonstrated by the excellent water quality, concluding the need to implant monitoring actions based on these reference data to preserve this important reserve of marine life. © 2017, Universidade de Sao Paulo.

This study approaches the current situation of artisanal fisheries in two marine protected areas (MPAs) and proposes biodiversity management scenarios, under a changing climate, using fishers’ local ecological knowledge (LEK) in two hemispheres: The Berlenga Marine Natural Reserve (Berlenga MNR), Portugal and the Marine Extractive Reserve (Resex-Mar) of Arraial do Cabo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The most targeted species of artisanal fisheries in both protected areas were reviewed for habitat use, threats and conservation status. The use of LEK is a powerful tool for developing new conservation strategies namely dealing with climate change responses of biological bioresources and fishing communities’ adaptation. Participatory management by all users in a protected area is regarded as an effective means to improve decision making among stakeholders. LEK studies of taxonomy, population dynamics, ecology, habitat use, threats, and reproduction as well as the assessment of this information for artisanal fisheries are still very scarce in Europe and Brazil. The use of LEK provides important biological information and insight into the attitudes of fishermen towards biodiversity conservation in both MPAs. Other MPAs in mainland Portugal and the Madeira and Azores Autonomic Regions are also potential areas for the administration of LEK studies. Also the social network used for communication of knowledge and information related to natural resources among different professionals and resource extractors operating in a coastal seascape is critical under a scenario of biodiversity loss and climate change impacts. © 2018, Springer International Publishing AG.",,237-262,,,,,,,,,,,Springer,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Climate Change Manag.

Methods: The modelling demanded twenty-five occurrence records, twelve as training data and thirteen as test data. The study area consisted of a 300 kilometers buffer zone applied over the occurrence records. We used a set of twenty-two environmental layers as ambient data, as follows: 19 bioclimatic variables available on Worldclim; altitude from Worldclim; slope, obtained through geoprocessing in ArcGis v10.3 with altitude variable; and drainage density provide by Ambdata. These layers were transformed by the use of fuzzy logic to represent a continuous variation, and thus the most significant data was select after a PCA. To indicated to new surveys areas, we define locations with significant occurrence probability and distant from occurrence points. And, lastly, we observed the environmental integrity to analyze the potential watercourse quality, by using satellite images, in a buffer zone of ten kilometers from Espinhaço Range Biosphere Reserve. Results: The chosen regions with the highest occurrence probability, which account for 9 new survey areas, are concentrated in interfluvial areas and near conservation units. We performed an analysis focused on the region of the Espinhaço Range Biosphere Reserve and delimited seven areas that presented good habitat suitability. The region was observed using satellite images, and five of the areas presented high ecological integrity. Two areas showed impacts from mining activity. Conclusions: The distribution pattern corroborates the features of the species as a bioindicator of good water quality. It is estimated that this methodology can be adapted and applied to other bioindicators. The areas where headwaters and low-order tributaries are present must be conserved, because they are fundamental for maintaining the quality within the respective watershed. © 2022, Sociedade Brasileira de Limnologia.

Consequently, the discussions on the conservation and sustainable use of marine biodiversity in these areas have become the focus of the international community over the past decade. As a result, the United Nations General Assembly decided to convene an intergovernmental conference to elaborate the text of an international legally binding instrument, under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, on the conservation and sustainable use of marine biodiversity of areas beyond national jurisdiction. During the discussions leading to this decision, the advent of potential conflicts between the sovereign rights connected to the continental shelf beyond 200 nm and the protective measures applied in Marine Protected Areas established in the High Seas, was expressed as one of the pressing concerns. Therefore, it is feared that such concerns will somehow deter these States from expressing their consent to be bound by the agreement in the end.

Yet, when, where and why discrete ecological states emerge remains difficult to predict and monitor, especially in high-diversity systems. We sought to quantify state shifts and their drivers through space and time in the most ecologically complex marine ecosystem: tropical coral reefs.LocationWorldwide.Time Period1987-2019.Major Taxa StudiedCoral reef communities.MethodsUsing a global dataset of 3375 coral reef surveys, along with 13 time series datasets ranging between 1987 and 2019, we applied a novel double-dichotomy approach to classify coral reefs into four simplified and discrete states based on the relative contributions of corals versus algae to benthic cover and small-bodied versus large-bodied fishes to fish standing stock. We then examined state shifts considering a range of spatial predictors and tested whether states have shifted directionally over time, and the nature of the most common transitions.ResultsWe show that geographic, environmental and anthropogenic context fundamentally shapes coral reef states at the local scale, which explains disparities among case studies, and stakes out critical baseline expectations for regional management efforts. We also reveal clear multi-decadal state shifts on coral reefs: over time, systems dominated by reef-building corals and small-bodied, planktivorous fishes tend to have been replaced with reefs characterised by algae and larger-bodied fishes.Main ConclusionsOur results suggest a previously unrecognised transition from systems that harness external subsidies through small-bodied consumers associated with structurally complex live corals, to herbivore-dominated systems with stronger bottom-up dynamics. Overall, the partitioning of complex reef ecosystems into a small suite of discrete ecological states suggests that spatial context-dependency, shifting baselines and changes in reef functioning are crucial considerations for coral reef management in the 21st century.",,,,12,33,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001334311800001,,,,,,,alternative stable state; Anthropocene; BASE-LINES; CONSERVATION; DIVERSITY; ecosystem function; FISH; FISHERIES; global change; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; herbivory; IMPACTS; marine protected area; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; overfishing; phase shift; PHASE-SHIFTS; reef resilience; regime shift; REGIME SHIFTS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The Fildes Region is characterized by high biodiversity, but is also a major logistic centre for the northern Antarctic Peninsula. Different interests, from scientific research, nature conservation, protection of geological and historical values, station operations, transport logistics and tourism, regularly overlap in space and time. This has led to increasing conflict among the multiple uses of the region and breaches of the legal requirements for environmental protection that apply in the area. The aim of this study was to assess the impacts of human activities in the Fildes Region by monitoring the distribution of bird and seal breeding sites and recording human activities and their associated environmental impacts. Data from an initial monitoring period 2003-06 were compared with data from 2008-10. We observed similar or increased levels of air, land and ship traffic, but fewer violations of overflight limits near Antarctic Specially Protected Area No. 150 Ardley Island. Open waste dumping and oil contamination are still major environmental impacts. Scientific and outdoor leisure activities undertaken by station personnel are more frequent than tourist activities and are likely to have a commensurate level of environmental impact. Despite the initial success of some existing management measures, it is essential that scientific and environmental values continue to be safeguarded, otherwise environmental impacts will increase and the habitat will be further degraded. We argue that the Fildes Region should be considered for designation as an Antarctic Specially Managed Area, a measure that has proven effective for environmental management of vulnerable areas of the Antarctic. © 2012 C.

The MSFD pays particular attention to spatial protection measures, as it contains specific provisions about the possible types and criteria for networks of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). The huge achievement of the MSFD, including with respect to networks of MPAs, is its integrative approach. Maritime spatial planning instruments may play an important role as spatial protection measures. The European Union (EU) recently introduced a Maritime Spatial Planning Directive (MSPD). MPA networks must contribute to Good Environmental Status (GES) taking account of the ecosystem approach, and the spatial protection measures taken shall give due consideration to sustainable development including social and economic impacts. These requirements for the network necessitate the integration of measures which go beyond Natura 2000 in several respects. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,89-101,,,,,,,,,,,Wiley Blackwell,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Manag. of Mar.

Studies examining the effects of forest harvesting and deforestation on the biodiversity of adjacent protected areas have primarily focused on study areas within the tropics. Due to concerns about impacts of low-retention or clearcut harvesting on biodiversity in adjacent protected areas, the province of Nova Scotia implemented interim harvesting guidelines adjacent to all parks and protected areas in 2019. To examine the effectiveness of these guidelines, we designed a study to quantify the relative influence of previous clearcut harvesting immediately adjacent to Cloud Lake Wilderness Area based on changes in bird communities along transects beginning 100 m inside clearcuts and extending 300 m into the protected area. Ordinations revealed clear differences in the bird communities among transect points; clearcut and edge bird communities differed significantly from those 200 and 300 m inside the protected area and those 100 m inside the protected area comprised of a blend of species from the other 4 transect point locations. Overall species richness and many individual species abundances reflected this pattern as well - 13 species with clear responses across transect point locations were intermediate in abundance at sites 100 m into the protected area. The weight of evidence from our study supports other research showing that the zone of influence from clearcut harvesting on passerine birds in adjacent forest is at least 100 m for many species. These results suggest that a minimum harvesting and development buffer adjacent to protected areas of between 100 and 200 m would be a reasonable management approach if the objective is to minimize the effects of these activities on the bird communities within protected areas. To determine if a partial harvest within the buffer would maintain biodiversity within a protected area will require additional research that directly compares the influence of partial harvesting to no-harvest prescriptions on a variety of taxa. Additional studies in other protected areas that vary in size and have dissimilar landscape contexts, habitat conditions, and bird communities could provide further insight. © 2024",,,,,559,,For.

We assessed the risk of adverse effects from abrasion caused by bottom fishing, as a case study, to demonstrate an integrated spatial management methodology. Risk was quantified in the Galway Bay, Ireland region using a 1 km grid, as the ratio between mortality and recovery of benthic infauna exposed to abrasion effects estimated from fishing data. Risk was considered high if annual mortality exceeded recovery. A Bayesian network model, incorporating ecological and economic data, compared three management scenarios: i) business as usual (BAU), ii) exclusion of fishing vessels over 18 m within 6 nautical miles (68% of study area) (Length) and iii) a network of marine protected areas (MPAs) closed to all fishing vessels (11% of study area) (MPA). The BAU scenario indicated that risk was high for 85.6% of the study area. The length scenario resulted in a 14.6% reduction in high risk cells, affecting €0.9 M of landings, €0.7 M of indirect output and 19 full time equivalent (FTE) employees. The MPA scenario resulted in a 1.7% reduction of high risk cells. This scenario affected €0.17M in landings, €0.13M in indirect outputs and 3 FTE employees. We present a method which provides a quantitative, spatial, risk and economic impact assessment of the effects of human activities and pressures on the marine environment that assesses potential costs and benefits of management options to mitigate against these pressures. Future development of a mortality-recovery ratio for defined time periods would enable application across multiple habitats, human activities and pressures. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,198,,Ocean Coast.

It comprises three different management areas: the central one (“core”, strict protection, only control and monitoring activities), surrounded by a “buffer” area (authorized activities, e.g. scientific research) and an external “transition” area (productive and extractive activities contemplated in the Management Plan). Beyond the transition area, only the southern shelf-break is protected, after the creation of the “Namuncurá II” MPA in December 2018. Objective: provide the inventory of polychaetes collected during 2016 and 2017 at the core (98 m depth), buffer (128 m depth), transition (133 m-189 m depth) areas of the Namuncurá I MPA, together with slope areas (220 m-798 m depth). Methods: taken with a trawl net used to characterize the faunal assemblages and to compare results with other Magellan areas. Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) and Cluster Analysis (CA) were applied to a Bray-Curtis similarity index to assess polychaete assemblages in the NMPA-BB slope and Magellan region respectively; SIMPER (Similarity Percentage Analyses) and ANOSIM (Analysis of Similarities) were performed. Results: A total of 918 individuals, which correspond to 39 taxa distributed in 22 families, were recorded in samples from NMPA and BB slope, mainly epibenthic or associated with the large corals collected. Ampharete kerguelensis McIntosh, 1885; Hyalinoecia artifex Verrill, 1880; Idanthyrsus macropaleus (Schmarda, 1861); Laetmonice producta Grube, 1877; Onuphis pseudoiridescens Averincev, 1972; Pista mirabilis McIntosh 1885 and Terebellides malvinensis Bremec & Elias, 1999 constitute new records for Burdwood Bank. A similar polychaete assemblage characterized the three areas of NMPA and slope locations, while H. artifex characterized locations at the NW deepest slope of the bank. Conclusions: These results indicate strong connections between the fauna collected at NMPA and the polychaetes assemblage in other Magellan areas dominated by soft bottoms. The biogeographic importance of the BB as connection for benthic polychaete species between South America and the Antarctic Peninsula merits future investigation. © 2019, Universidad de Costa Rica.

Management plans aimed at preserving these unusual communities require knowledge of historical and contemporary forces that shaped the distributions and connectivity of associated species. As most vent research has focused on the eastern Pacific and mid-Atlantic ridge systems less is known about Indo-Pacific vents, where mineral extraction activities are imminent. Deep-sea mussels (Bivalvia: Mytilidae) of the genus Bathymodiolus include the morphotypic species B. septemdierum, B. brevior, B. marisindicus, and B. elongatus which are among the dominant vent taxa in western Pacific back-arc basins and the Central Indian Ridge. To assess their interpopulational relationships, we examined multilocus genotypes based on DNA sequences from four nuclear and four mitochondrial genes, and allozyme variation encoded by eleven genes. Bayesian assignment methods grouped mussels from seven widespread western Pacific localities into a single cluster, whereas the Indian Ocean mussels were clearly divergent. Thus, we designate two regional metapopulations. Notably, contemporary migration rates among all sites appeared to be low despite limited population differentiation, which highlights the necessity of obtaining realistic data on recovery times and fine-scale population structure to develop and manage conservation units effectively. Future studies using population genomic methods to address these issues in a range of species will help to inform management plans aimed at mitigating potential impacts of deep-sea mining in the Indo-Pacific region. © 2015, The Author(s).",,1415-1430,,6,16,,Conserv.

For this reason, numerous papers have been published that are based on a variety of algorithms and different kinds of input data. However, the current literature lacks comparative studies that investigate the performance of different approaches in depth. Therefore, this study aims to provide recommendations for suitable approaches for the automatic classification of side-scan sonar data that can be applied by agencies and researchers. With random forests, support vector machines, and convolutional neural networks, both traditional machine-learning methods and novel deep learning techniques have been implemented to evaluate their performance regarding the classification of backscatter data from two study sites located in the Sylt Outer Reef in the German Bight. Simple statistical values, textural features, and Weyl coefficients were calculated for different patch sizes as well as levels of quantization and then utilized in the machine-learning algorithms. It is found that large image patches of 32 px size and the combined use of different feature groups lead to the best classification performances. Further, the neural network and support vector machines generated visually more appealing sediment maps than random forests, despite scoring lower overall accuracy. Based on these findings, we recommend classifying side-scan sonar data with image patches of 32 px size and 6-bit quantization either directly in neural networks or with the combined use of multiple feature groups in support vector machines. © 2023 by the authors.",,,,16,15,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,Backscattering; bottom sampling; Bottom sampling; Classification (of information); Conservation; Convolution; convolutional neural network; Convolutional neural network; Convolutional neural networks; Deep learning; Ecosystems; Forestry; German Bight; Learning systems; Machine learning algorithms; marine protected area; Marine protected area; random forest; Random forests; Reefs; sediment; Sediments; Side scan sonar; side-scan sonar; Sonar; sonar backscatter; Sonar backscatter; support vector machine; Support vector machines; Support vectors machine; Sylt outer reef; Vectors,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Despite significant interest in the effectiveness of surrogates for predicting spatial distributions of biodiversity, few researchers have explored questions involving the ability of surrogates to incidentally represent unknown features of conservation interest. We used the Great Barrier Reef marine reserve network to examine factors affecting incidental representation of conservation features that were unknown at the time the reserve network was established. We used spatially explicit information on the distribution of 39 seabed habitats and biological assemblages and the conservation planning software Marxan to examine how incidental representation was affected by the spatial characteristics of the features; the conservation objectives (the minimum proportion of each feature included in no-take areas); the spatial configuration of no-take areas; and the opportunity cost of conservation. Cost was closely and inversely correlated to incidental representation. However, incidental representation was achieved, even in a region with only coarse-scale environmental data, by adopting a precautionary approach that explicitly considered the potential for unknown features. Our results indicate that incidental representation is enhanced by partitioning selection units along biophysical gradients to account for unknown within-feature variability and ensuring that no-take areas are well distributed throughout the region; by setting high conservation objectives that (in this case >33%) maximize the chances of capturing unknown features incidentally; and by carefully considering the designation of cost to planning units when using decision-support tools for reserve design. The lessons learned from incidental representation in the Great Barrier Reef have implications for conservation planning in other regions, particularly those that lack detailed environmental and ecological data. © 2016, Society for Conservation Biology.",,154-165,,1,30,,Conserv.

Their role as key 'edge' systems between land and sea has implications for many species which have larval stages in mangal and saltmarsh, but spend adult life as benthic, pelagic or demersal species. Many such species are also important commercially. Mangal and saltmarsh are both highly dynamic systems, reacting rapidly to changes in hydrological condition and sedimentation. In many areas of the world mangal and saltmarsh are threatened systems, especially near human habitation. Appropriate management strategies for mangal and saltmarsh are therefore critical for both conservation and sustainable use, the two key objectives of the Convention on Biological Diversity. Clearing and associated development, invasion of alien species, pollution effects and poor management are the key threats to these systems. Management at a bioregional level, including the development of a comprehensive system of protected areas, is identified as the key management strategy which will ensure an adequate future for these dynamic systems.",,117-125,,2,3,,Mangroves Salt Marshes,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Alien species; Australia; biogeography; Biogeography; Bioregions; Conservation; conservation management; Mangal; mangrove; Pattern and process; plant community; saltmarsh; Sustainable use,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Whilst there is growing evidence that protected areas can benefit biodiversity, to achieve the greatest possible gains from their expansion, we must understand how protected area quality impacts upon biodiversity metrics. We used UK BTO/JNCC/RSPB Breeding Bird Survey data and protected areas condition data from national Common Standards Monitoring, to test whether improving site condition (for which there are UK policy targets) would contribute to stated policy targets to increase species' abundance. After controlling for differences in climate, land cover, and elevation, we found a positive association between the proportion of favourable habitat and bird abundance trends in the UK, while in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland combined, the positive effect was also significantly greater than in unfavourable habitat. Conversely, we also found a negative effect of proportion of favourable habitat on bird abundance. There was no evidence that these relationships varied between conservation status or many of the traits considered, although there was some evidence that favourable condition was beneficial for habitat specialists, cold-adapted species, and varied by habitat. Our findings suggest that improving the condition of protected areas currently in unfavourable condition, will contribute to nature recovery as measured by species' abundance trends in some circumstances. This also suggests that achieving the “30 by 30” target without ensuring those protected areas are of sufficient quality, may not be sufficient to restore biodiversity. © 2024",,,,,292,,Biol.

Moreover, to support the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD)'s Strategic Action Plan including the Aichi Biodiversity Targets, such efforts are necessary to set a framework to reach the agreed national, regional or global targets. The integration of land use/cover change (LULCC) data with information on habitats and population density provides the means to assess potential degradation and disturbance resulting from anthropogenic activities such as agriculture and urban area expansion. This study assesses the LULCC over a 20 year (1990-2000-2010) period using freely available Landsat imagery and a dedicated method and toolbox for the Udzungwa Mountains National Park (UMNP) and its surroundings (20 km buffer) in Tanzania. Habitat data gathered from the Digital Observatory for Protected Areas (DOPA)'s eHabitat+Web service were used to perform ecological stratification of the study area and to develop similarity maps of the potential presence of comparable habitat types outside the protected area. Finally, integration of the habitat similarity maps with the LULCC data was applied in order to evaluate potential pressures on the different habitats within the national park and on the linking corridors between UMNP and other protected areas in the context of wildlife movement and migration. The results show that the UMNP has not suffered from relevant human activities during the study period. The natural vegetation area has remained stable around 1780 km2. In the surrounding 20 km buffer area and the connecting corridors, however, the anthropogenic impact has been strong. Artificially built up areas increased by 14.24% over the last 20 years and the agriculture area increased from 11% in 1990 to 30% in the year 2010. The habitat functional types and the similarity maps confirmed the importance of the buffer zone and the connecting corridors for wildlife movements, while the similarity maps detected other potential corridors for wildlife. © 2016 by the authors.",,,,10,8,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI AG,,,,Agriculture; Animals; Biodiversity; BIOPAMA; Conservation; Data integration; Decision making; DOPA; Ecosystems; Environmental protection; Habitats; Land cover; Land use; Ocean habitats; Population statistics; SAGCOT; Tanzania; Udzungwa; Web services,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We conducted 123 transect surveys at night along a concrete trail in a natural area protected by the Panamanian national environmental authority Autoridad Nacional Ambiente (ANAM.)

All three field seasons took place during a long-Term Central American drought. The mean mass of B. biseriata, the most common species of salamander encountered, was 0.8±0.4 g with an average snout-vent length (SVL) of 31.45±5.30 mm. A principal component analysis indicated that B. biseriata utilized all of the available ground-level habitats where surveys were conducted. Bolitoglossa biseriata mostly sat on the leaves of plants anywhere from 14.0-303.8 cm off the ground between 1830 and 0530 h. The season, the air temperature, and the amount of precipitation in the previous 24 h had the largest influence on our detection rate of B. biseriata. Bolitoglossa biseriata in central Panama is nocturnal and most active during the rainy season. Oedipina complex and O. parvipes were equally abundant, but the number of captures for each species varied significantly with season. The Oedipina spp. were found primarily on the ground, although it was not uncommon for them to be climbing on the hand rail or a small plant. A chytrid fungus, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), was detected on B. biseriata and O. parvipes, but we did not detect any mortality resulting from infection.

This NMPA represents one of the first coastal sites with port activity in Mexico, which causes a range of human activities that require adequate planning so as not to impact and destroy this marine protected area; In this sense, this work represents the first effort aimed at diagnosing the presence of organochlorine contaminants in reef sediments from the mainland, both from the adjacent port area and from more distant regions with dominant agricultural activities that ultimately affect this NMPA. Content of organic matter (OM), carbonates and grain-size composition were determined to investigate their influence on compounds distribution in the sediment through multivariate analysis. The potential risk represented by organochlorines concentrations was evaluated taking as reference Sediment Quality Guidelines (SQGs). Levels of ?PCBs, ?DDTs, ?HCHs and ?Cyclodienes ranged from 11.59 to 29.79, < 0.01 to 34.11, 22.10 to 102.80, and 17.21–104.45 ng g?1 dry weight (DW), respectively. The statistical analysis revealed that the content of mud and organic matter were the parameters that might influence PCBs distribution in the sediment while OCPs could be influenced by sand and carbonate. The theoretical risk assessment estimated with the results obtained showed that concentrations of lindane, endrin, dieldrin and p,p’-DDT could have an adverse effect on the reef benthic community and continued monitoring is required. The data obtained on the organochlorine contaminants (OCs) considered in this work will contribute to support the strategies proposed by the Mexican federal government entity to continue with the conservation and surveillance of this NMPA and thereby guarantee the least impact derived mainly from port and related agricultural activities. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,339,,Chemosphere,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,"Agricultural activities; Agriculture; aldrin; Article; Atlantic Ocean; atmospheric deposition; benthos; Biogeochemistry; carbonic acid derivative; chemical composition; chlorinated hydrocarbon; chlorphenotane; comparative study; Conservation; DDT; dieldrin; endosulfan; endrin; environmental monitoring; Environmental Monitoring; Environmental protection; environmental risk; Geologic Sediments; Gulf of Mexico; heptachlor; heptachlor epoxide; human; human activity; Humans; Hydrocarbons, Chlorinated; Insecticides; limit of detection; local government; marine environment; marine park; Marine pollution; Marine protected area; marine sediment; Marine sediments; mass fragmentography; Mexico [North America]; N-methyl-N-2-(methylsulfinyl)ethylpropionic acid amide; organic matter; Organic pollutants; Organochlorine contaminants; organochlorine pesticide; Organochlorine pesticides; particle size; PCBs. reef system; Persistent organic pollutant; Persistent organic pollutants; pesticide; Pesticides; polychlorinated biphenyl; polychlorinated biphenyl derivative; Polychlorinated biphenyl.; Polychlorinated biphenyls; Polychlorinated Biphenyls; qualitative analysis; quality control; Quality control; Reef system; Reefs; risk assessment; Risk assessment; Risk perception; Risks assessments; sediment; Sediments; South and Central America; statistical analysis; urban area; Veracruz; Veracruz Reef System National Park; water contamination; water pollutant; Water Pollutants, Chemical",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Marine conservation approaches have traditionally followed the example of terrestrial initiatives. However, patterns, processes, habitats, and threats differ greatly between the 2 systems - and even within the marine environment. As a result, there is still a lack of congruence as to how to best identify and prioritize conservation approaches moving from the static terrestrial and nearshore realm into a more fluid, 3-dimensional pelagic realm. To address this problem, we investigate how the conservation science literature has been used to inform and guide management strategies in the marine system from coastal to pelagic environments. As cumulative impacts on the health of the oceans continue to increase, conservation priorities have shifted to include highly dynamic areas of the pelagic marine system. By evaluating whether priorities match science with current place-based management approaches (i.e. marine protected areas, MPAs), we identify important gaps that must be considered in current conservation schemes. Effective pelagic MPA design requires monitoring and evaluation across multiple physical, biological, and human dimensions. Because many threatened and exploited marine species move through an ephemeral and ever-changing environment, our results highlight the need to move beyond traditional, 2-dimensional approaches to marine conservation, and into dynamic management approaches that incorporate metrics of biodiversity as well as oceanographic features known to promote multilevel, trophic productivity. © The authors 2016.",,229-237,,3,29,,Endanger.

Sao Tome e Principe is a small insular and African country in development (SIDS). It is an archipelago that is endowed with a diversified environmental patrimony where it is possible to identify and to classify different protected areas in agreement with the international indicators. Some examples are the Natural Park Obo in the two main islands (Sao Tome and Principe islands) and the Ecological Areas (Malanza and Praia das Conchas), characterized by the biodiversity and endemic flora and fauna in the forest, coastal and sea areas. The archipelago has many natural potentialities that are adapted to the ecological tourism and the observation practice. On the other hand, it is a country with abundance of natural resources that are the maintenance of the local community who are dependent of the nature to guarantee the family survival, developing traditional cultural practices, exercising and added load in the environment. In spite of the Government considered and recognized officially the importance of the ecological segment in 2000, at present in Sao Tome and Principe tourism is still a marginal sector. The participation and the local community empowerment in the ecological tourism projects with environmental preservation had been valued in the last years. Some examples are the important societies or partnerships with community groups, local associations and Non Governmental Organizations in coastal areas as well as in rural context. Because of the importance of the education in the development, concerning to make certain the local poverty relief as well as the improvement of the community abilities, the care about the environment education is real, especially when we analyse the ecological tourism experiences. In Sao Tome and Principe it is already visible the concern with the environmental education and the formation for the nature preservation and the conservation of the threatened animals in extinction. Those fragile species have a decisive importance for the ecological tourism practice but are a preferred target for the local consumption. The target groups of the education actions are both, the youth and scholar population as well as the working people like the small fisher, the fish sellers and the artisans. The research indicates that in Sao Tome and Principe something is changing slowly but it is already possible to identify some transformation signs in the local people mentality and practices.",,177-183,,SUPPL. 2,10,,Amfiteatru Econ.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Development; Ecological tourism; Empowerment; Environmental education; Participation; Sustainability,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, monitoring at large scales in forest habitats is complicated, expensive and time consuming. We investigated the potential of applying interview-based occupancy analysis as a tool for the rapid assessment of the distribution and relative abundance of forest elephants in eastern Cameroon. Using single-season occupancy models, we explored the covariates that affect forest elephant occupancy and detectability, and identified spatial and temporal patterns in population change and occupancy.Quantitative and qualitative socio-demographic data offer additional depth and understanding, placing the occupancy analysis in context and providing valuable information to guide conservation action. Detectability of forest elephants has decreased since 2008 which is consistent with the decline in perceived abundance in occupied sites. Forest elephants occupy areas outside protected areas and outside the known elephant range defined by IUCN. Critical conservation attention is required to assess forest elephant populations and the threats they face in these poorly understood areas.

GMES (Global Monitoring for Environment and Security) is a major activity of the European Union and Commission which aims at providing operational services by making the best use of spaceborne earth observation data, in-situ observations and models. MarCoast is the GMES Service Element Project addressing the marine environment and is funded by the European Space Agency. MarCoast is providing Marine and Coastal Services for international, regional and national end users. The project is driven solely by these end users, which include mainly public bodies in charge of the marine environment, such as, for example, the European Environmental Agency (EEA), the European Maritime Security Agency (EMSA) or the German Federal and Maritime Hydrographic Agency (BSH). The MarCoast service portfolio includes oil spill detection and polluter identification as well as water quality products and services. The latter comprises monitoring the water quality with respect to European regulations as above, monitoring and alerting of algal blooms and the monitoring of large scale water quality indicators. The production chain of MarCoast begins with ENYISAT MERIS and Aqua MODIS data for the ocean colour products and AATSR data for sea surface temperature. The satellite data are downloaded from the space agencies and routinely processed to provide basic data sets of key parameters on a common grid. A merged MODIS and MERIS data product is produced at 1km. MERIS Full Resolution data (300m) complement the basic data.

Their respective targets should drive policy decisions for Scottish fisheries, in keeping with the universal intent of the new goals. This paper explores the relevance of SDG 14 to the Scottish fishing industry, noting that there are a number of linkages with other goals and targets that should be considered within management frameworks. Scottish fishing has a long history, but the size of the inshore fleet has seen decline in recent decades, particularly of small-scale fishers in rural communities. Available literature was reviewed and a survey of active Scottish fishers conducted to explore the current availability and equality of distribution of benefits from ecosystem services to Scottish fisheries, and the factors that affect them. The findings suggest that benefits may not currently be equally distributed across Scottish fisheries; this is largely sector dependent and driven by market forces, but also relates to gaps in current management and monitoring systems. Furthermore, the potential benefits to fisheries of marine protected areas (MPAs) established for conservation purposes are not adequately assessed as part of their design, which may result in less support from fisheries stakeholders and reduce the benefit to ecosystem services. It concludes with some recommendations for consideration by decision-makers to improve how fishing businesses and communities could benefit more from ecosystem services whilst operating within environmental limits. © 2017",,271-283,,,93,,Mar.

Highlighting its leadership, CCAMLR joined the international movement to designate a representative network of marine-protected areas (MPAs) throughout the world’s oceans by 2012. Over the last decade, CCAMLR has been working towards this goal convening a series of workshops and celebrating their first Southern Ocean MPA in 2009. In 2011, plans for large MPAs in the Ross Sea and East Antarctic came up for discussion but their adoption has stalled due to Member States’ objections, with the primary concern being interference with fishing. In July 2013, CCAMLR’s Scientific Committee and Commission convened a special intersessional meeting dedicated to making progress on the Ross Sea and East Antarctic MPAs. Progress was again stalled due to Member’s objections and the Russian delegation’s concerns over the legal capacity of CCAMLR to adopt Southern Ocean MPAs. To address potential barriers to MPA adoption, including fishing interests, I provide a synthesis of the CCAMLR MPA process to date and then analyse CCAMLR fishing trends from 1982 to 2012. The results show that since 1982, the number of fishing States has increased four-fold, correlating with the rise of toothfish fisheries (sold on the market as “Chilean sea bass”). While historically, and in the present, krill (Euphasia superba) comprise the largest catch, toothfish (Dissostichus spp.) bring in 20 times more profit. While the MPA proposals under consideration in 2012/2013 were designed specifically to balance conservation and fishing interests, they would displace some toothfish fishing and would limit potential future access to Southern Ocean resources. The shift in balance among fishing States along with the increasing pressure to find more toothfish fisheries may be interfering with CCAMLR’s ability to effectively implement MPAs in the Convention Area. © 2013 Taylor & Francis.",,277-300,,2,3,,Polar J.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Antarctic; CCAMLR; Marine-protected areas; Southern Ocean; Toothfish,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

These challenges are further compounded by the remote location of some MPAs, which magnify the costs of management activities. However, large size and remoteness alone may be insufficient to achieve conservation outcomes in the absence of critical management functions such as environmental monitoring and enforcement. The Australian subantarctic Heard Island and McDonald Islands (HIMI) Marine Reserve is among the world’s most remote MPAs with notoriously harsh oceanographic conditions, and yet the region’s rich mammal and fish resources have been exploited intermittently since the mid-1800s. More recently, the development of lucrative international markets for Patagonian toothfish, sold as Chilean seabass, led to the growth in both legal and illegal fishing. In 2002, to conserve the unique ecology and biodiversity in the area, Australia declared a 65,000 km2 MPA around HIMI. Worldwide, government agencies have, however, struggled to develop cost-effective institutional arrangements for conservation. This paper therefore draws upon the social-ecological systems meta-analysis database (SESMAD) to characterize the structure of conservation governance and outcomes in the HIMI Marine Reserve. The Marine Reserve has generally been successful in supporting a sustainable fishery while addressing threats to biodiversity. The remote and isolated nature of the Marine Reserve was critical to its success, but also benefited greatly from collaborations between managers and the fishing industry. Commercial fishers keep watch over the Reserve while fishing, report any observations of illegal fishing (none since 2006/07), and have at times been asked to verify remote observation of potential illegal fishing vessels. The industry also undertakes annual ecological surveys in the MPA, allowing managers to track environmental trends. The fishing industry itself highlights the importance of industry participation in conservation planning, strengthened by secure access to resources via statutory fishing rights, which provide critical incentives to invest in conservation. We therefore reflect on the potential application of this case to other remote large MPAs, highlighting potential directions for future research. © Copyright © 2019 Brooks, Epstein and Ban.",,,,,6,,Front.

The main objective of this paper is to estimate public willingness to pay (WTP) for alternative management regimes of a network of offshore MPAs in the North Sea under the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD). In a baseline valuation study carried out just before the adoption of the MSFD, beach visitors and a random sample of coastal and non-coastal residents were asked for their preferences for two alternative management options of three remote, ecologically sensitive areas with multiple use conflicts. Despite the lack of public awareness and familiarity with the offshore marine areas, a majority of 70% is willing to pay extra tax for their protection. Using a conservative value elicitation procedure, Dutch households are willing to pay on average maximum 0.25% of their annual disposable income to ban access and economic use. This serves as an indicator of what a network of remote MPAs in the MSFD is allowed to cost according to the Dutch tax payer. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.",,195-204,,,68,,Mar.

We assessed the effects and effectiveness of the WGMCA on groundfish assemblages using habitat-stratified (gravel, sand, mixed benthic habitats) sampling by means of a commercial trawler, inside and outside of the WGMCA. Sampling occurred over three month-long sampling periods in 2004-2005, two during the spring seasons and one during the fall season. A total of 18 species were analyzed for protection effects. After controlling for substratum, location and sampling season, eight groundfish species exhibited higher mean proportional abundance inside than outside the WGMCA while two were proportionally more abundant on average outside of the closure. Four species had higher mean proportional biomasses on average inside the closure and three outside. We conclude that the WGMCA may be achieving its goal of rebuilding abundance and biomass for some commercially targeted groundfishes but not all.

We examine the tension between the long-term benefits of reserves and short-term losses, using a multispecies model of coral reef fisheries. Reserves designed to maximize long-term profits caused significant short-term losses. We model several policy solutions, where we incrementally increased either: the number of months per year that the reserve is closed to fishing; the size of the reserve; or the number species protected within the reserve. Protecting species sequentially, starting with the most valued species, provided the best outcome in the short-term with the most rapid recovery of profits.

Here, we investigate how heterogeneity in catch and profits among fishers influences the trade-off among the triple-bottom-line objectives of recovering a fish population, maximizing its economic value and distributing restrictions equitably across fishers. As a case-study, we examine management reform of an ecologically and economically important coral reef fishery operating within the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park. Using a simulation model, we find that total profitability of the fishing industry is 40% lower if recovery plans are equitable when compared to the most economically efficient plan. However, efficient recovery plans were typically highly inequitable because they required some fishers to cease fishing. Equity was defined according to different norms, and the efficiency loss was greatest when catch losses were shared equally across fishers rather than in proportion to their historical catch. We then varied key social, economic and biological parameters to identify cases when equity and efficient recovery would trade-off most strongly. Recovery plans could be both efficient and equitable when heterogeneity in fisher's catches and individual catch efficiencies was lower. If fishers were homogenous then equitable plans could have maximal economic efficiency. These results emphasize the importance of considering heterogeneity in individual fishers when designing recovery plans. Recovery plans that are inequitable may often fail to gain stakeholder support, so in fisheries with high heterogeneity we should temper our expectations for marked increases in profits. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,107-116,,1,19,,Fish Fish.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,Anthozoa; Australia; CATCH; CONSERVATION; coral reef; economic efficiency; environmental management; fishery economics; fishery modeling; fishing industry; Great Barrier Reef Marine Park; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; MANAGEMENT; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; Plectropomus; profitability; Queensland; recovery plan; recovery planning; RESERVES; simulation; SOCIAL EQUITY; stakeholder; trade-off; triple-bottom-line,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A heterogeneous area of seabed, approximately 1 km 2 in size, was selected for the study. The area was first surveyed using a sidescan-sonar system and a mosaic of the output was produced covering 100% of the survey area. Interpretation of the mosaic identified three acoustically distinct seabed types, the spatial distributions of which were mapped. Four RoxAnn data sets were then collected over the same area of seabed applying different survey parameters (e.g. different survey grids, track spacing, survey vessels, survey speeds, and RoxAnn systems). Extensive ground-truthing was carried out involving 26 drop-down video stations, and from these data six benthic classes (seabed habitats) were identified. Following interpolation of the RoxAnn track-point data to produce full spatial-coverage data, these six-seabed habitat categories were used to conduct supervised classification of the RoxAnn data to produce full-coverage habitat maps of the area for each of the four RoxAnn data sets. Comparisons were then made between the four RoxAnn maps and the sidescan-sonar interpreted map. The accuracy of each map was assessed and the application of this mapping approach for mapping seabed habitats in SACs is discussed. © 2005 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.

Consequently, many protected areas are ineffective ‘paper parks’ that contribute little towards conserving ecosystems. Poaching can be prevented through enforcement and engaging with community members so they support protected areas. It is not clear how much needs to be spent on enforcement and engagement to ensure they are frequent enough to be effective at conserving biodiversity. We develop models of enforcement against illegal fishing in marine protected areas. We apply the models to data on fishing rates and fish biomass from a marine protected area in Raja Ampat, Indonesia and explore how frequent enforcement patrols need to be to achieve targets for coral reef fish biomass. Achieving pristine levels of reef fish biomass required almost year-round enforcement of the protected area. Surveillance of the protected area may also be enhanced if local fishers who support the reserve report on poaching. The opportunity for local fishing boats to participate in surveillance was too small for it to have much benefit for total reef fish biomass, which increases slowly. However, specific functional groups of fish have much higher population growth rates and their biomass was predicted to increase markedly with community surveillance. We conclude that budgets for park management must balance the cost of conducting frequent patrols against supporting alternative activities, like education to build community support. Optimized budgets will be much more likely to achieve ecological targets for recovering fish biomasses and will contribute to fiscal sustainability of protected areas. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,259-265,,,227,,Biol.

The fisheries and conservation benefits of alternative reserve designs would ideally be assessed using dynamic models, which consider spillover of fish and larvae to fished areas, and the displacement of fishers to unprotected sites. In practice, however, decisions about the location of marine reserves generally rely on cheaper and faster static models. Static models analyze only spatial patterns in habitats, and typically assume fisheries profits are reduced by the amount that was generated in areas designated as reserves. To help determine the benefits of developing dynamic fisheries models, we assessed how well static models estimate costs of reserve systems to fisheries and how outcomes from reserves designed using either static or dynamic models differ. We tested these questions in two case studies, the network of marine protected areas in southern California, USA and the proposed Tun Mustapha Marine Park in Malaysia. Static models could either under or over-estimate the cost of reserve plans to fisheries, depending on the relative importance of fisher movement and larval dispersal dynamics. Despite the inaccuracy of static models for estimating costs, reserves designed using static models were similar to those designed with dynamic models if fisheries were well managed; or larval dispersal networks were simple. If larval networks were complex or there was overfishing, dynamic models generated substantially different reserve networks from static models, which improved conservation outcomes by up to 10% and fishing profits by up 20%. The time-scale of management was also important, because only dynamic models accounted for larval dispersal, so could find reserves that maximized the long-term benefits of larval spillover. Our case studies provide quantitative support for the assertion that static models can be useful for planning marine reserves for short-term objectives in well managed fisheries, but are not reliable for evaluating the relative costs of reserves to fisheries.

They have become prominent policy tools used to address coastal squeeze of intertidal habitats occurring from sea-level rise and ‘hold-the-line’ management approaches. This policy development is evaluated against scientific evidence and its broader ethical dimensions regarding conservation of the natural environment. A case study is provided from the UK (England) where the National Habitat Compensation Programme aims to continue conservation obligations consistent with the EU Habitats Directive and Natura 2000. Progress is also referenced against Shoreline Management Plans and aspirations for a greater proportion of the coast to shift to managed realignment in response to sea level rise. Important barriers are identified, and issues of monitoring, transparency, and robustness are highlighted regarding habitat compensation and general coastal policy. At present, habitat compensation is based upon a simple area-based balance sheet approach which overlooks key uncertainties and gives a misleading indication of progress. Climate change adaptation planning needs to include more flexibility based upon alternative scenarios and response pathways, especially regarding recent evidence for higher future sea-level rises. Robust responses also require more emphasis on improved interpretation of ecological functioning, integrity, and coherence, as essential concepts to facilitate ecosystem-based adaptation consistent with international conventions and application of the precautionary principle. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,219,,Ocean Coast.

Remote atolls and platform reefs provide potential refugia for predator populations, but quantitative information on their spatial distribution is required to establish accurate baselines for ongoing monitoring and conservation management. Current knowledge of predatory fish populations has been derived from targeted shallow diver-based surveys (<15 m). However, the spatial distribution and extent of predatory fishes on outer mesophotic shelf environments has remained under described. Middleton Reef is a remote, high-latitude, oceanic platform reef that is located within a no-take area in the Lord Howe Marine Park off eastern Australia. Here we used baited remote underwater stereo video to sample predatory fishes across lagoon and outer shelf habitats from depths 0-100 m, extending knowledge on use of mesophotic depths and habitats. Many predatory fish demonstrated clear depth and habitat associations over this depth range. Carcharhinid sharks and Carangid fishes were the most abundant predators sampled on Middleton Reef, with five predatory fishes accounting for over 90% of the predator fish biomass. Notably, Galapagos shark (Carcharhinus galapagensis) and the protected black rockcod (Epinephelus daemelii) dominated the predator fish assemblage. A higher richness of predator fish species was sampled on reef areas north and south of the lagoon. The more exposed southern aspect of the reef supported a different suite of predator fish across mesophotic habitats relative to the assemblage recorded in the north and lagoonal habitats, a pattern potentially driven by differences in hard coral cover. Biomass of predatory fishes in the more sheltered north habitats was twice that of other areas, predominantly driven by high abundances of Galapagos shark. This work adds to the growing body of literature highlighting the conservation value of isolated oceanic reefs and the need to ensure that lagoon, shallow and mesophotic habitats in these systems are adequately protected, as they support vulnerable ecologically and economically important predator fish assemblages.  © 2022 Brown et al.

This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a key protected area in eastern Madagascar, Ranomafana National Park (RNP). We established paired 100 × 4-m vegetation transects (400 m 2) within RNP and in remnant forests in the park's peripheral zone. In each 400-m 2 plot, all woody stems >1.5 cm in diameter at breast height were measured and identified to species. All species were also identified as native or non-native. We identified utilitarian species within all transects and they were sorted into use category. We calculated plot-level taxonomic biodiversity and functional diversity of utilitarian species; the latter was calculated by clustering the multivariate distances between species based on their utilitarian traits, and all metrics were tested using paired t-tests. Our results showed that there was significantly higher biodiversity inside RNP than in remnant forests and this pattern was consistent across all diversity metrics examined. Forests not located within the park's boundary had significantly higher non-native species than within RNP. There was no statistically significant difference in functional diversity of utilitarian species inside RNP vs. remnant forests; however, the overall trend was toward higher diversity inside park boundaries. These findings suggested that RNP has been effective at maintaining taxonomic diversity relative to surrounding unprotected areas and restricting the spread of non-native plants. The results also suggested that low functional redundancy of forests outside of RNP might be of concern, because residents in surrounding villages may have few other substitutes for the services provided by species that are of critical importance to their livelihoods.

In Europe, National Parks and Special Areas of Conservation aim to provide protection of 'aggregate' biodiversity, yet inspection of priority species lists for these sites often reveals a focus towards terrestrial species. In regions such as the Alps and the Pyrénées, this is a particularly serious problem because climate change and other anthropogenic pressures (e.g. hydropower, tourism) are causing widespread hydrological modification which is likely to drive changes in aquatic species abundance, diversity and distribution. Improved understanding of the diversity of rare plants and animals is necessary so efforts can be cost-effectively targeted to conserve the maximum number of species, whilst a clearer picture of these species' distributions is a precursor to targeting conservation efforts. This paper reports results of a study into the diversity and distribution of 17 endemic mayflies, stoneflies and caddisflies from 598 rivers sites across southern France. Endemic macroinvertebrates were found only at sites in the Pyrénées mountain range with richness peaking at 1500-1800 m above sea level. Nine of these 17 species were recorded from <20 sites and two (Protonemura angelieri, Rhithrogena kimminsi) were found at only 10 sites. Despite both the rarity of these species and threats to their existence, none of them have any current conservation status. New conservation policies for freshwater ecosystems in the French Pyrénées need to be developed as a priority due to the rarity of many aquatic species in this area, growing threats to their existence (habitat modification, hydrological change), and to recognise their importance in food webs that may include other rare species of conservation value. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

Several of these habitats are afforded protection under European Legislation and in the UK nationally within Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) and Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). Natural England has a statutory duty to report to Europe on the conservation status and condition of sand dunes; and is required to report to the UK Government on designated sites. To achieve this we have sought ways of capturing, analysing and interpreting data on the extent and location of sand dune habitats. This requires an ability to be able to obtain data over large areas of coastline in an efficient way. Natural England and Environment Agency Geomatics have worked collaboratively for over 16 years, sharing data and ecological knowledge. In 2012 work started to evaluate the use of remote sensing to map UK BAP and Annex I sand dune habitats. A methodology has now been developed and tested to map sand dune habitats. The key objective was to provide an operational tool that will help to map these habitats and understand change on sites around England. This has been achieved through analysis of LIDAR and Compact Airborne Spectrographic Imager (CASI) data using Object Orientated Image Analysis. Quality Control (QC) and accuracy assessments have shown this approach to be successful and 11 sites have been mapped to date.

Marine zoning plans provide a mechanism for ensuring the realization of conservation objectives under spatially varying levels of resource use. The need for a systematic and transparent approach to zone planning highlights the role of Geographical Information Science (GIS)-based techniques. The spatial analysis capabilities of GIS enable the development of useful tools for decision makers to interactively explore the outcomes of their decisions and evaluate alternatives. The aim of this study is to develop a generic model for Marine Park zoning that translates management policy into zoning plan options. In demonstrating this model an application to the Shark Bay Marine Park in Western Australia is presented. The model incorporates input from different marine park users and accounts for the legislative requirements of relevant government agencies. User groups indicate their preferences by weighting the importance of management policies and selecting the zone type to be assigned to each marine resource. Hypothetical user views were adopted in the Shark Bay Marine Park application to demonstrate the impact of different decision biases. A series of four alternative zoning plans are generated and assessed in terms of their practical implementation. The outcomes of this study highlight the model's ability to present zoning plan alternatives that reflect varying user opinion. This is evident in the contrasting zoning patterns of generated plans. In assessing the effectiveness of each zoning plan for achieving selected management objectives the research also developed mechanisms to evaluate proposed zoning alternatives. Limitations to the model include the influence of policy structure, the need for integration with terrestrial management, and spatial data uncertainty. The model contributes to multiple-use marine park management by providing a method in which planning options are generated based on existing policy frameworks and transparency in the decision-making process is enabled through interactive weighting techniques.

The space available for reserves is limited, however, and conservation efforts must increasingly consider how management of protected areas can promote biodiversity beyond reserve borders. Habitat corridors are considered an important feature of reserves because they facilitate movement of organisms between patches, thereby increasing species richness in those patches. Here we demonstrate that by increasing species richness inside target patches, corridors additionally benefit biodiversity in surrounding non-target habitat, a biodiversity ""spillover"" effect. Working in the world's largest corridor experiment, we show that increased richness extends for approximately 30% of the width of the 1-ha connected patches, resulting in 10-18% more vascular plant species around patches of target habitat connected by corridors than around unconnected but otherwise equivalent patches of habitat. Furthermore, corridor-enhanced spillover into non-target habitat can be predicted by a simple plant life-history trait: seed dispersal mode. Species richness of animal-dispersed plants in non-target habitat increased in response to connectivity provided by corridors, whereas species richness of wind-dispersed plants was unaffected by connectivity and increased in response to changes in patch shape - higher edge-to-interior ratio - created by corridors. Corridors promoted biodiversity spillover for native species of the threatened longleaf pine ecosystem being restored in our experiment, but not for exotic species.

However, in many instances, relevant data is missing to conduct proper impact assessments, which is key to identifying ecological and social synergies and potential trade-offs, and to adapting management according to local objectives. The ecological effects of an MPA established in Palawan, Philippines, in 2016, were assessed. The most common species targeted by fisheries were identified by local fishers. Species size and number were collected through underwater visual census with n = 288 belt transects assigned in different sites and locations to ensure to provide both protected and control (fished) sites for the MPA assessment, and baseline data for three new MPAs that were created in 2022. 91 coral-reef fish species belonging to 12 families were recorded. Mixed effect linear regression was used to compare target fish populations in protected and control sites. Compared to control locations, 5 years after its implementation, the MPA showed significantly higher species richness, abundance, mean size, and biomass while no significant difference was found on the average trophic level between MPA and control sites.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are commonly used to foster the sustainability of coastal social-ecological systems. However, because MPAs are often proposed and implemented by external actors, ensuring they are fit to the local social and ecological context remains a challenge. Here, we introduce a framework to identify the place-based social and ecological goals for an MPA. We use a marine conservation project in the Philippines as a case study. We assess the perceptions of local communities and decision-makers across four categories: (i) marine importance, (ii) environmental stressors, (iii) proposed management options, and (iv) MPA goals and needs. Assessing these is a way to refine marine conservation goals locally, adapt the implementation of planned interventions, and monitor their future outcomes. © 2024 The Author(s)",,,,10,27,,iScience,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Inc.,,,,Ecology; Marine processes; Social sciences,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Whereas some variables were used to model the presence-absence distribution patterns of the type localities for the whole set of endemics as well as for the subset of narrow endemics, others (e.g., presence inside or outside protected areas and Italian Important Plant Areas) were considered with the purpose of assessing potential assets or risks for conservation. The largest number of type localities was found within the Mediterranean biogeographic region (1134), followed by the Alpine region (306) and Continental region (96). A total of 670 locations are located on islands, whereas 866 are located on the Italian mainland (139 and 124 in the case of narrow endemics, respectively). A large number of type localities are located in mountainous areas and along the coastline, which can be seen as a potential risk for conservation. On the contrary, we detected a positive correlation with the distance from roads, which might be considered to be an asset. Importantly, 1030 type localities fall inside protected areas, whereas 506 localities fall outside protected areas, with 259 of these unprotected localities on islands. We propose considering the results of the analysis of the distribution of type localities of Italian endemics to be a strategic tool for conservation planning and resource management. Application of plant micro-reserves and integration of diverse legislation tools are suggested to strengthen efforts and increase conservation success. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,109-118,,,214,,Biol.

Optimisation is increasingly used to identify reserve locations that preserve biodiversity at a minimum cost to human activities. Two classes of algorithms solve this reserve site selection problem: metaheuristic algorithms (such as simulated annealing, commonly implemented in Marxan) and exact optimisation (i.e. integer programming, commonly implemented in PrioritizR). Although exact approaches are now able to solve large-scale problems, metaheuristics are still widely used. One reason is that metaheuristic-based software provides a set of suboptimal reserve solutions instead of a single one. These alternative solutions are usually welcomed by stakeholders as they provide a better basis for negotiations among potentially conflictive objectives. Metaheuristic algorithms use random procedures to explore the space of suboptimal reserve solutions. Therefore, they may produce a large amount of similar, thus uninformative, alternative solutions, which usually calls for a heavy statistical post-processing. Effective methods for generating a diverse set of near-optimal solutions using exact optimisation are lacking. Here we present two new approaches for addressing this issue. Our algorithms explicitly control both the optimality gap and the dissimilarity between alternative reserve solutions. It allows the identification of a parsimonious, yet meaningful set of reserve solutions. The algorithms presented here could potentially increase the uptake of exact optimisation by practitioners. These methods should contribute to less noisy and more efficient discussions in the design of conservation policies. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,619-634,,4,28,,Environ.

However, understanding the effects of tourism activities on the health of target animals is required to fully assess conservation benefits. Shark tourism operators often use food rewards to attract sharks in close proximity to tourists, but nothing is known about the contribution of these food rewards to the energetic requirements of target species. In this study, hand feeding of bull sharks Carcharhinus leucas was directly observed on 36 commercial shark watching dives in the Shark Reef Marine Reserve (SRMR), Fiji. Mean number of tuna heads consumed per dive by focal individuals ranged from 1.3 to 3.7. Monitored bull sharks consumed an average of ~0.74 heads per provisioning day, and bioenergetics modelling suggests that some sharks might periodically be meeting their full energy requirement from provisioning at the SRMR. Knowing how much individual sharks consume at provisioning sites and how this relates to their energy requirements is crucial in order to better understand the effects of wildlife tourism and its contribution to conservation. © 2017 The Zoological Society of London",,31-35,,1,21,,Anim.

For sharks, information on the location and usage of critical habitats is rare. Marine protected areas (MPAs) have great potential to benefit shark populations but these rarely protect a species throughout its life stages or all critical habitats. The latter often includes parturition sites. Aims. Pregnant bull sharks from the Shark Reef Marine Reserve in Fiji were tracked into riverine systems during three parturition seasons. Methods. We tagged 31 female bull sharks with acoustic transmitters and placed acoustic receivers in the Rewa, Sigatoka, Navua and Ba Rivers on the island of Viti Levu between 2016 and 2018. Key results. Fourteen bull sharks were detected by receivers placed in the four rivers for few, typically consecutive days during parturition season. Bull sharks were detected in the Rewa River during all three parturition seasons whereas sharks were detected in the Navua River only during the 2017/2018 season. Conclusions. We have shown that Fiji's rivers are critical for the completion of the bull shark's life cycle. Implications. Fiji has recognized the importance of conserving its population of bull sharks.

The system is able to detect the simultaneous presence of dolphins and boats in the area and to give their position in real time. This information is used to prevent collisions by diffusing warning messages to all the categories involved (tourists, professional fishermen and so on). The system consists of two gps-synchronized acoustic units, based on a particular type of marine buoy (elastic beacon), deployed about 1 km off the Portofino headland. Each one is equipped with a four-hydrophone array and an onboard acquisition system which can record the typical social communication whistles emitted by the dolphins and the sound emitted by boat engines. Signals are pre-filtered, digitized and then broadcast to the ground station via wi-fi. The raw data are elaborated to get the direction of the acoustic target to each unit, and hence the position of dolphins and boats in real time by triangulation. © 2016 Brunoldi et al.

Both species have threatened conservation status, with their contemporary and projected distribution poorly known. We aimed to use species distribution models (SDMs) to identify (1) the potential range under current conditions, (2) suitable habitat area conserved in protected areas and (3) responses under future environmental conditions of the species. Using a presence-pseudo-absence approach, and a set of bioclimatic variables, combined with topographic factors, we modelled the spatial dynamics of Southern Fontainea and Coastal Fontainea. We present comparisons among regression (GLM) and Random Forest (RF) SDMs for current and projected future conditions under low (SSP 1–2.6) and high (SSP 5–8.5) emission scenarios for the period 2081–2100 from an ensemble of three CMIP6 climate models. On-ground surveys verified the contemporary distribution of Southern Fontainea across the study extent. GLM-and RF-based models identified similar areas of suitable habitat under current conditions, but both models indicated that less than half of the suitable Southern Fontainea habitat is under protected tenure. GLM-based SDMs suggest an expansion of suitable areas of Southern and Coastal Fontainea under both low-and high-emission climate projections. By contrast, RF-based SDMs indicated a severe decline of suitable habitat under future climate projections. The steep slopes and gullies of the mountain ranges, which span the Queensland and New South Wales border of central, eastern Australia, seem likely to provide long-term, stable climate refugia for Southern Fontainea. Models generated under current conditions identified novel areas that could support undiscovered populations of Southern and Coastal Fontainea. These findings have significant conservation implications for the critically endangered Coastal Fontainea, which is projected to lose suitable habitat under a high-emission climate scenario. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,42,,Glob.

The water exchanges between the Sacca di Goro and the adjacent Adriatic Sea depend on two openings in the southern sand barrier. The lagoon watershed is 860 square kilometers. The eastern part of this watershed belongs to the Po delta, while the western part is for the most part a man-regulated system resulting from a centuries old reclamation. The Sacca di Goro complex and delicate ecosystem is regulated by a system of environmental policies (Natura 2000 network, national/regional and local protected areas and reserves). On the other hand the lagoon is affected by several anthropogenic pressures due to watershed land use and exploitation of lagoon resources. The main economical activities in the study site are clam farming in the lagoon and agriculture in the terrestrial part of the basin. Over the years the lagoon surface reduction was of about 100.000 hectares for land reclamation activities. At present, the Sacca di Goro is one of the top European sites for clams production. A great part of the lagoon surface is exploited for clam farming managed by cooperatives of fishermen. The watershed of the Sacca di Goro is exploited for agriculture and the main crop types (maize and wheat, rice, sugar beet, soybean and vegetables) are cultivated with conventional techniques, using pesticides and fertilizers with a potential impact on water quality. Nutrient enrichment, loss of self-purification capacity due to watershed land use and low water renewal in the inner part of the lagoon, are the major causes of dystrophic crises in summer, with anoxia, anaerobic processes and inherent high reducing conditions with breakdown of the trophic structure of the system. Following the DPSIR conceptual approach Drivers, Pressure, State, Impacts have been evaluated in order to identify Responses able to ensure sustainable development of the area. Appropriate mitigation and compensation measures have been identified combining environmental protection requirements, sustainability and economic productivity and achieving multiple goals in a synergistic way. In particular, constructed wetlands, channel restoration and buffering ecosystem creation (riparian buffer strips and buffer zones) have been proposed as multifunctional measures (ecosystem benefits, water pollution control, groundwater recharge, flood control, etc.) for an integrated management of the area. The proposals have been included in spatial planning to meet both requirements of environmental protection and enhancement of the territory, in an area characterized by delicate balances already heavily modified by anthropogenic actions. Operational proposals of potential interventions have been developed evaluating surface hydrography, topography of the area, land use and urban settlements and related infrastructure. Different areas of possible intervention have been identified immediately behind the Sacca and within part of the basin between the Delta Po and the river Volano Po.

West Africa contains approximately 14% of the world’s mangrove area but despite 25% of coverage loss between 1980 and 2006, the region’s mangroves have not been well studied. This study aims to provide a first step toward increasing the knowledge of the region’s blue carbon stocks, with a focus on mangroves, and of their financial value based on their carbon storage benefit alone. The best available data suggest that the region contains 1.97 million hectares of mangroves storing 854 million metric tons of carbon in above- and below-ground biomass and the top meter of soil; 4.8 million hectares of seagrass storing 673 million metric tons of carbon; and 1.2 million hectares of salt marshes storing 303 million metric tons of carbon. Even without including values for other benefits of intact mangroves, the conservation of mangroves in the region appears viable. Specifically, the discounted value of 20-year emission reductions under a conservation scenario is estimated to be between $341.2–569.0 million at an 8% discount rate and carbon prices of $3 and $5 per metric ton respectively. © 2020, The Author(s).",,,,1,24,,J.

Europe) have been strongly exploited for decades bringing them into an enduringly depleted status. Scientific cod stock related advice for targeted and mixed fisheries is provided on an annual basis by the International Council for Exploration of the Sea. This advice forms a basis for ministerial decisions on, e.g., the total allowable catch and management plans. Despite measures to reduce fishing-induced mortality of cod, such as catch and effort restrictions, increased gear selectivity, closed areas and seasons, clear signs of recovery are yet to be seen. Thus, traditional advice for the management of these stocks may have to be complemented by advice on supporting measures focusing on other pressures hampering the recovery of cod. The present study elaborates on potential supportive measures for cod stock recovery in the Baltic Sea, Kattegat, and Skagerrak (including local populations where applicable), based on current knowledge. The list of measures presented here is the outcome of in-depth discussions on the state-of-the-art knowledge, among cod experts and further with stakeholders with the aim to follow principles of ecosystem-based fisheries management. Following the identification of different pressures on and prerequisites for the separate stocks, the listed measures differ between stocks and include cod bycatch mortality reduction, alterations in fisheries affecting food sources for cod, restocking, protection of juvenile habitats, and reduced predation. The literature review and the list of measures are intended to provide decision-support for managers and policymakers aiming to provide conditions for the cod stocks to recover. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,223,,Ocean Coast.

However, if unaccounted for, climate change can undermine the efficacy of such efforts. Despite this, integration of climate change adaptation and resilience into spatial marine conservation and management has been limited in Canada and elsewhere. With climate change impacts becoming increasingly severe, now is the time to anticipate and reduce impacts wherever possible. We provide five recommendations for an inclusive, proactive, climate-ready approach for Canada s growing marine conservation network: (1) integrating climate-resilience as a universal objective of the Canadian Marine Conservation Network, creating and implementing (2) national transdisciplinary working groups with representation from all knowledge holders and (3) necessary tools that integrate climate change into conservation design, (4) defining operational and climate-relevant monitoring and management objectives, and (5) strengthening communication and increasing knowledge exchange around the roles and benefits of protected areas within government and towards the public. Canada s extensive marine and coastal areas reflect national and international responsibility to engage on this issue.

Complementary to marine protected areas (MPAs), Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures (OECMs) have emerged as a key tool to mitigate this loss by providing long-term biodiversity protection. However, while OECMs primarily target specific taxa, they can also offer indirect biodiversity conservation benefits (BCBs) to a wider range of taxa. In this study, we assess the indirect BCBs of eleven OECMs in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, focusing on their role in supporting the life-history processes of commercially important species such as Atlantic halibut, Greenland halibut, and redfish. We apply an integrated assessment that combines knowledge and data previously unconnected to provide information to support OECM management. Our analysis reveals that eight of the eleven OECMs overlap with potential spawning habitats for these species, suggesting important life-history benefits. However, projected climate-driven changes in bottom temperature, oxygen concentration, and pH levels pose a threat to these habitats, potentially undermining the long-term effectiveness of OECMs. These findings underscore the need for adaptive management strategies that incorporate climate-informed ecosystem indicators and broaden the conservation focus beyond economically important species. Such approaches are crucial to ensuring that OECMs continue to provide both direct and indirect BCBs in the face of accelerating climate change, thereby contributing to global marine biodiversity conservation efforts. © 2025 Bryndum-Buchholz et al.

Outcomes are challenging to project at national scales, despite their importance for management decisions. Using an ensemble of six global marine ecosystem models we analyzed marine ecosystem responses to climate change from 1971 to 2099 in Canada's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) under four standardized emissions scenarios. By 2099, under business-as-usual emissions (RCP8.5) projected marine animal biomass declined by an average of ?7.7% (±29.5%) within the Canadian EEZ, dominated by declines in the Pacific (?24% ± 24.5%) and Atlantic (?25.5% ± 9.5%) areas; these were partially compensated by increases in the Canadian Arctic (+26.2% ± 38.4%). Lower emissions scenarios projected successively smaller biomass changes, highlighting the benefits of stronger mitigation targets. Individual model projections were most consistent in the Atlantic and Pacific, but highly variable in the Arctic due to model uncertainties in polar regions. Different trajectories of future marine biomass changes will require regional-specific responses in conservation and management strategies, such as adaptive planning of marine protected areas and species-specific management plans, to enhance resilience and rebuilding of Canada's marine ecosystems and commercial fish stocks. © 2020 Bryndum-Buchholz et al.

Located on the northern and eastern margins of two large submerged banks and a number of smaller more isolated banks, the Bahama Islands, of which there are over 700, are low-lying and composed of limestone. A sub-tropical climate and a geographic position between two major warm ocean currents affect the region with seasonal variability, which influences the biological communities inhabiting the ocean and coastal areas. The Bahama Banks are separated from the North American continent by the Florida Straits and from each other by deep channels, some in excess of 2000 m. Two deep water channels cut into the larger Great Bahama Bank. Most of the marine area is shallow (<<20 m), resulting in an extremely important marine resource with both ecological and economic value. The Bahama Islands are dependent on their seas to maintain a GDP of US$ 2.7 billion through tourism and harvest of marine resources. To date, the fishing industry has benefited from the relatively high ecological productivity of the shallow banks and their related habitats. Commercially important fisheries include Spiny Lobster, conch and nassau grouper which, together, make up the bulk of fisheries income. Clear warm waters and white sand beaches, along with its close proximity to the USA, make the Bahamas a prime tourist destination. Tourism is the mainstay of the Bahamian economy, accounting for 60% of the gross domestic product. Agricultural and forestry operations are limited and impacts in the coastal zone from these are negligible. However, land reclamation and construction for tourism development, along with sand mining, dredging, over-fishing, poor fishing practices and their respective impacts of habitat loss, beach erosion and over-exploitation of target and non-target marine resources are becoming increasingly apparent as developmental pressures grow. Environmental regulations are in place through a number of parliamentary acts. Management of established marine and coastal protected areas has been undertaken by the Bahamas National Trust (BNT), which along with other organisations, carry out environmental education programs to increase awareness and reduce impact on the marine and coastal areas of the archipelago.

Patterns of landscape use in space and time can help inform strategies to mitigate negative interactions between people and wildlife. Objectives: We aimed to estimate the landscape utilization of elephants where they ranged through a mosaic of human-modified land-use and undisturbed habitat to better understand spatial implications for human-wildlife interactions. Methods: We studied locations and utilization distributions of ten bull elephants in the Western Okavango Panhandle region of Botswana. We calculated utilization distributions, patterns of landscape use, and daily movement relative to permanent water and human land-use. Results: The annual distributions of the monitored elephants ranged from 1220 to 3446 km2 and showed seasonal variation, with wet season distributions being significantly larger than dry season distributions. On average 49.4% of elephants’ core distributions in the dry season and 12.3% in the wet season fell within 5 km of human land-use. Elephants ranged increasingly farther from permanent water sources as the wet season progressed, while in the same time frame elephants moved closer on average to human land-use. Elephants were more likely to be near human land-use during the night than they were during the day. Diel patterns of elephant proximity to human land-use did not match patterns of proximity to water. Conclusions: Conservation and management efforts must consider the diel and seasonal patterns of elephant movement in order to fully address the issue of human-elephant interactions. © 2019, Springer Nature B.V.",,1411-1423,,6,34,,Landsc.

Epinephelus marginatus is a long-lived, sedentary, reef-associated protogynous hermaphrodite with high commercial and recreational value that is at risk of extinction throughout its global distribution. Based on global trends, population substructuring and gaps in local knowledge this has led to an increased interest in evaluation of local stock. Assessment of Maltese demography was based on historical and contemporary catch landings data whilst genetic population structure and regional connectivity patterns were evaluated by examining 175 individuals collected within the central Mediterranean region between 2002 and 2009 using 14 nuclear microsatellite loci. Demographic stock assessment of Maltese E. marginatus' revealed a 99% decline in catch landings between 1947 and 2009 within the Fisheries Management Zone. A contemporary modest mean size was observed, 3 +/- 3 kg, where approximately 17% of the population was juvenile, 68% female/sex-changing and 15% were male with a male-to-female sex ratio of 1:5. Genetic analysis describes the overall population of E. marginatus' within the Fisheries Management Zone as decreasing in size (theta(H) = 2.2), which has gone through a significant size reduction in the past (M = 0.41) and consequently shows signs of moderate inbreeding (F-IS = 0.10, p < 0.001) with an estimated effective population size of 130 individuals. Results of spatially explicit Bayesian genetic cluster analysis detected two geographically distinct subpopulations within Malta's Fisheries Management Zone and that they are connected to a larger network of E. marginatus' within the Sicily Channel.

One main obstacle is the lack of consensus regarding how impacts of climate change can be included in spatial conservation plans. We propose a climate-smart framework that prioritizes the protection of climate refugia—areas of low climate exposure and high biodiversity retention—using climate metrics. We explore four aspects of climate-smart conservation planning: (1) climate model ensembles; (2) multiple emission scenarios; (3) climate metrics; and (4) approaches to identifying climate refugia. We illustrate this framework in the Western Pacific Ocean, but it is equally applicable to terrestrial systems. We found that all aspects of climate-smart conservation planning considered affected the configuration of spatial plans. The choice of climate metrics and approaches to identifying refugia have large effects in the resulting climate-smart spatial plans, whereas the choice of climate models and emission scenarios have smaller effects. As the configuration of spatial plans depended on climate metrics used, a spatial plan based on a single measure of climate change (e.g., warming) will not necessarily be robust against other measures of climate change (e.g., ocean acidification). We therefore recommend using climate metrics most relevant for the biodiversity and region considered based on a single or multiple climate drivers. To include the uncertainty associated with different climate futures, we recommend using multiple climate models (i.e., an ensemble) and emission scenarios. Finally, we show that the approaches we used to identify climate refugia feature trade-offs between: (1) the degree to which they are climate-smart, and (2) their efficiency in meeting conservation targets. Hence, the choice of approach will depend on the relative value that stakeholders place on climate adaptation. By using this framework, protected areas can be designed with improved longevity and thus safeguard biodiversity against current and future climate change. We hope that the proposed climate-smart framework helps transition conservation planning toward climate-smart approaches. © 2023 The Authors.

When not properly handled, these conflicts can undermine preservation objectives. Due to the human population increase and the emergence of new MPAs around the world, the interaction between man and nature tends to increase. The Abrolhos bank, where the Abrolhos National Marine Park (Abrolhos N.M.P) is located, is home to the largest and richest coral reef areas in the South Atlantic. This region has around 20,000 fishermen who exploit the fishing grounds and their surroundings. The implementation of the Abrolhos N.M.P led to a change in the lifestyle of fishermen in the surrounding region. These changes have generated conflicts between fishermen and this MPA. Therefore, the objective of this study was to understand the resilience of the socioecological system (SES) of the Abrolhos N.M.P surroundings, through the vision and the strategies adopted by the fishermen of the region, using the Q methodology. For this study, the small and medium scale fishermen of the Abrolhos N.M.P surroundings were interviewed. The results indicate that the resilience of the SES varies according to the fishing scale. The SES that small-scale fishermen are a part of have shown to be less resilient and also have more conflicts with this MPA. For them, the loss of old fishing grounds that became part of the MPA has compromised their work. Meanwhile, the SSE that the medium-scale fishermen are part of has shown to be more resilient, although they also have conflicts with the AMP. For them, the loss of a fishery represented an advantage for the maintenance of fishing in the region. Changes affecting the marine landscape need to be carried out with caution and must take the reality experienced by the fishermen in the vicinity into account, in order to avoid the exclusion and marginalization of these communities which in turn generates conflicts that undermine the preservation objectives. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,214-224,,,169,,Ocean Coast.

As these grasslands have been used as rangelands for centuries, human management (grazing; fire regimes) is one of their main ecological and evolutionary drivers, along with the Mediterranean climate. Despite EU conservation policy, damage to such grasslands still occurs and efficient ecological restoration is needed. This article reviews restoration constraints, effective techniques, and research perspectives for restoring them in the light of their ecological characteristics. Major restoration constraints specifically include (1) a poor contribution of the internal (seed bank) and external (seed rain) species pools, and (2) low establishment of some perennial species. The latter may be the result of the low seed quantity or quality of perennial species, stochastic or extended droughts, high soil nutrient content that may lead to competition (e.g. between weed and target species), inappropriate grazing management or fire regimes leading to shrub encroachment, or the death of target species seedlings in early stages of restoration. Successful restoration techniques include seeding, transplanting, hay transfer, and timely soil transfer, all of which have to be adapted to regional plant phenology and to local Mediterranean climate. They must be combined with appropriate grazing or fire management. Their success may depend on years with particular rainfall amounts or patterns or on particular target plant species. We discuss research perspectives contributing to a better understanding of seed dispersal, seedling recruitment, and soil processes and suggest the benefits of using ecosystem engineer species. © 2020 Society for Ecological Restoration",,,,S1,29,,Restor.

Aim: The aim was to understand the influence of body size and mouth morphology differences on both diet and patch selection by ungulate species in western Serengeti. Two hypotheses were tested: (1) for ungulate species, the relative body sizes and muzzle widths (mean muzzle width range: 3.1- 9.85) relate directly to food biomass, and to quality of diets selected in the wet season when food is abundant; (2) in the wet season, if food is not limiting, similar-sized species should exhibit greater dietary niche overlap than ungulate species that differ greatly in body size and muzzle width; moreover, similar-sized species exhibit less dietary niche overlap than ungulate species that differ greatly in body size. Methods: In the western Serengeti ecosystem, road transects and direct observation were used to obtain data on the distribution and diet of five ungulate species namely buffalo, zebra, wildebeest, topi and impala; which have of varying sizes (range: 70-630 kg) feeding in three different vegetation types. Grassland biomass, structure, nutrient content and ungulate use were measured at sites along transects. Key Results: Results indicated that large-bodied ungulates utilised patches of greater food abundance compared with those of smaller ungulates. Body mass was also negatively correlated with diet quality, so that smaller animals ate higher protein and lower-fibre foods, as predicted. Diet niche overlap (niche similarity) showed a strong positive relationship with body mass differences among ungulate species, in support of the second of the two predictions from this hypothesis, namely that dissimilarly sized species could eat the same food. Conclusion: Overall, the results suggest that in this savanna system, variation in ungulate body size influences resource separation even in the food-abundant wet season, and that this helps multiple species to co-exist. Implications: Implementing more focused conservation strategies will improve wildlife habitat quality by integrating fire as a forage management tool with grazing preferences to promote forage heterogeneity in protected areas. © 2019 CSIRO.",,54-63,,1,46,,Wildl.

Mangroves have significantly reduced in global extent over the last 50 years, primarily as a result of deforestation caused by the expansion of agriculture and aquaculture in coastal environments. However, a limited number of studies have attempted to estimate changes in global mangrove extent, particularly into the 1990s, despite much of the loss in mangrove extent occurring pre-2000. This study has used L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) global mosaic datasets from the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) for 11 epochs from 1996 to 2020 to develop a long-term time-series of global mangrove extent and change. The study used a map-to-image approach to change detection where the baseline map (GMW v2.5) was updated using thresholding and a contextual mangrove change mask. This approach was applied between all image-date pairs producing 10 maps for each epoch, which were summarised to produce the global mangrove time-series. The resulting mangrove extent maps had an estimated accuracy of 87.4% (95th conf. int.: 86.2–88.6%), although the accuracies of the individual gain and loss change classes were lower at 58.1% (52.4–63.9%) and 60.6% (56.1–64.8%), respectively. Sources of error included misregistration in the SAR mosaic datasets, which could only be partially corrected for, but also confusion in fragmented areas of mangroves, such as around aquaculture ponds. Overall, 152,604 km2 (133,996–176,910) of mangroves were identified for 1996, with this decreasing by ?5245 km2 (?13,587–1444) resulting in a total extent of 147,359 km2 (127,925–168,895) in 2020, and representing an estimated loss of 3.4% over the 24-year time period. The Global Mangrove Watch Version 3.0 represents the most comprehensive record of global mangrove change achieved to date and is expected to support a wide range of activities, including the ongoing monitoring of the global coastal environment, defining and assessments of progress toward conservation targets, protected area planning and risk assessments of mangrove ecosystems worldwide. © 2022 by the authors.",,,,15,14,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI,,,,Aquaculture; change; Change; change detection; Change detection; Coastal environments; Coastal protection; CONSERVATION; Deforestation; Ecosystems; extent; Extent; FORESTS; Global mangrove watch; Global Mangrove Watch; L-band; mangrove; Mangrove; Radar imaging; SAR; Space-based radar; Synthetic aperture radar; System services; Time series; Times series,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The delivery of these benefits depends on the protection and sustainable management of natural capital through effective nature conservation strategies. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are recognized worldwide as important tools to protect biodiversity while ensuring the delivery of ecosystem services and promoting sustainable human activities. Following the results of a national project aimed at assessing the value of natural capital in the Italian MPAs, in this study we assessed the value of marine natural capital stocks in the Gulf of Naples and Campania Region (Southern Italy) based on a biophysical and trophodynamic accounting model. The assessment focused on four macro-habitats: sciaphilic hard bottom (SHB), photophilic hard bottom (PHB), soft bottom (SB), and Posidonia oceanica seagrass bed (PSB). The total biophysical value of natural capital stocks related to the total area of the Gulf of Naples and Campania Region was 5.70?1020 sej and 3.10?1021 sej, while the total economic value was 795.92 and 4323.16 M€. Although the SHB habitat only represents about 4% and 1% of the total marine area of the Gulf of Naples and Campania Region, it contributes by 28% and 7% to the total value of natural capital. These figures reflect the high convergence of natural input flows into the marine ecosystem for the generation of the SHB habitat, highlighting the importance of proper measures and actions for its protection. In addition, the calculated values of natural capital stocks were combined with the bionomic map of the Gulf of Naples and Campania Region to show the spatial distribution of natural capital value.

This flows exchange allows marine ecosystems to operate at different scales acting as dissipative structures, building natural capital stocks capable of generating several ecosystem services vital for human well-being. Humans derive a wide range of goods and services from marine ecosystems while, at the same time, generate several impacts causing biodiversity loss and seriously affecting their capacity to provide benefits to humans. Effective management strategies are crucial to conserve healthy and diverse marine and coastal ecosystems, maintain the valuable functions and services they provide, and allow for sustainable human activities. In recent years, Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) have been increasingly acknowledged worldwide as important tools to conserve biodiversity and achieve human well-being and sustainable development goals. Assessing the value of natural capital and ecosystem services is crucial to raise awareness on their importance, support conservation strategies, and ensure the sustainable management of marine ecosystems. This study aimed at calculating biomass and emergy-based indicators to assess the value of natural capital stocks in a Mediterranean MPA. The assessment was performed through a biophysical and trophodynamic environmental accounting model fed with field biomass data collected through ad hoc sampling campaigns performed in the MPA. Four main macro-habitats were investigated: sciaphilic hard bottom (coralligenous bioconstructions), photophilic hard bottom, soft bottom, and Posidonia oceanica seagrass beds. The biomass density of the main autotrophic and heterotrophic taxonomic groups identified in the four macro-habitats of the MPA was evaluated. Based on this biomass matrix, the emergy value of natural capital stocks was assessed. The Posidonia oceanica seagrass beds habitat showed the highest biophysical value (2.32·1019 sej) at MPA scale, while coralligenous bioconstructions resulted the habitat with the highest biophysical value per unit area (2.72·1012 sej m?2). In addition, to complement the biophysical assessment with an economic perspective, the emergy-based indicators were converted into monetary units. The total value of natural capital of the whole MPA resulted in about 46 M€. The results of this study can support local managers and policy makers in the development of management strategies to ensure nature conservation and sustainable human activities. They can be also used as a benchmark for the assessment of natural capital value at larger scales in support of a proper consideration and inclusion of nature value into processes of policy making. © 2021",,,,,46,,Ecol.

Among these principles, the thermodynamic goal functions (GFs) named emergy and eco-exergy are recognised as methods unfolding the role of matter and energy flows in the functioning of ecological systems. The biophysical assessment of natural capital stocks is based on the evaluation of matter and energy flows invested by nature for their generation. In this paper, the emergy and eco-exergy methods were used to account for the natural capital value of two Mediterranean Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) located in Southern Italy. In particular, the assessment focused on four main habitats: 1) sciaphilic hard bottom (coralligenous bioconstruction), 2) photophilic hard bottom, 3) soft bottom, and 4) Posidonia oceanica seagrass bed. The emergy method allowed the assessment of natural capital in terms of direct and indirect solar energy flows invested for its generation, while the eco-exergy method accounted for the chemical energy stored in organic matter and the genetic information embodied in biomass stocks. The sciaphilic hard bottom showed a high emergy density value in the two MPAs (2.06?1012 and 7.22?1011 sej m?2), confirming the high convergence of input resource flows in the formation of this habitat. This high value reflects the effort of nature in the formation of this habitat and therefore it suggests the need for its consideration in conservation strategies. Instead, Posidonia oceanica seagrass bed showed the highest value of eco-exergy density in both MPAs (3.56?106 and 3.54?106 kJ m?2). The eco-exergy results were influenced by two main factors: 1) the large biomass density of Posidonia oceanica, and 2) the high ß value of Posidonia oceanica reflecting its evolutionary history that involved the acquisition of key adaptations for the successful colonization of marine environments. The integration between emergy and eco-exergy methods resulted in a useful approach to account for different nature values based on a biophysical perspective. Such a perspective could complement economic evaluations based on market criteria, thus supporting decision making processes oriented to the sustainable management of marine resources. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.",,137-146,,,392,,Ecol.

The biophysical and economic assessment of the value of natural capital stocks is much needed for achieving nature conservation goals, while ensuring the sustainable exploitation of marine resources. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are increasingly being established worldwide to protect and conserve natural capital stocks from anthropogenic threats. In this study, a biophysical and trophodynamic model based on the emergy accounting method was used to assess the value of natural capital for a set of Italian MPAs. In particular, the assessment focused on four main macro-habitats: 1) sciaphilic hard bottom (SHB), 2) photophilic hard bottom (PHB), 3) soft bottom (SB), and 4) Posidonia oceanica seagrass beds (PSB). The emergy method allowed the assessment of natural capital stocks in terms of direct and indirect solar energy flows invested by nature for their generation. The SHB habitat showed the highest emergy density value in most of the investigated MPAs, confirming the high convergence of input resource flows in the formation of this habitat. When considering extensive indicators, the contribution of the PSB habitat to the total value of natural capital was higher than other habitats in most MPAs. In addition, to facilitate the understanding of the results in socio-economic contexts, the biophysical values of natural capital stocks were converted into monetary units. The total value of natural capital in the investigated MPAs ranged from about 8 to 1163 M€.

This expansion has been accompanied by claims that only No-take MPAs (NTMPAs) can effectively ensure biodiversity conservation, and the international marine conservation community has become increasingly active and influential in promoting them. However, NTMPAs clearly have consequences for resource users whose livelihoods are impacted by restricted access to natural resources. Since these consequences can trigger social conflicts that impeded progress towards conservation goals, there have been concerted efforts to find collaborative and inclusive approaches to MPA planning and management. This paper assesses stakeholder engagement in decision-making processes related to marine conservation planning and management in the Galapagos Marine Reserve, and examines how these have been influenced by shifting narratives of biodiversity conservation in the lead up to, and the execution of, the 2016 rezoning process. A dramatic shift in the rezoning process, a top-down declaration of a no-take MPA, fostered social conflicts that have delayed the full-implementation of the new zoning plan even three years after its official declaration. Through a mixed-methods approach we contrast perceptions, expectations and experiences of key actors in three stakeholder groups: the small-scale fisheries sector, the scientific research community, and the conservation management sector. This study illustrates challenges associated with rushed conservation initiatives, promoted and supported by large external conservation NGOs, and it demonstrates how a “back to the barriers” approach to conservation can undermine acceptance of conservation practices and jeopardize the success of MPAs. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,185,,Ocean Coast.

Marine reserves could resist non-native species due to enhanced native diversity and biomass that heightens biotic resistance. Or non-native species could be enhanced by reserves by at least three mechanisms, including protection from harvesting, increased fishing pressure outside reserves facilitating invasions at a regional scale and increasing the exposure of reserves to more potential invaders, and increased propagule pressure from human visitation. We exhaustively searched the literature and found 13 cases that contained quantitative data on non-native species inside and outside marine reserves. In no cases did reserves resist non-native species. Of the seven cases where reserves were established prior to the arrival of the non-native species, five had no effect on the non-native species and two enhanced non-native species. Of the six cases where reserves were established in areas that had pre-existing non-native species, two had no effect on the non-native species and four enhanced the non-native species. These results suggest that while non-native species do equally well or better within marine reserves, too few data are currently available to draw broad, general conclusions regarding the effects of marine reserves on non-native species. Management plans for marine reserves rarely include guidelines for preventing or managing non-native species. If the trends we have detected here are supported by future studies, non-native species should be a priority for management of marine reserves. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,17-28,,1,15,,Biol.

Consequently, quantifying connectivity is essential for properly designing networks of protected areas so that they achieve their core ecological objective of maintaining population persistence. Recently, many empirical studies in marine systems have provided essential, and historically challenging to obtain, data on patterns of larval dispersal and export from marine protected areas (MPAs). Here, we review the empirical studies that have directly quantified the origins and destinations of individual larvae and assess those studies' relevance to the theory of population persistence and MPA design objectives. We found that empirical studies often do not measure or present quantities that are relevant to assessing population persistence, even though most studies were motivated or contextualized by MPA applications. Persistence of spatial populations, like nonspatial populations, depends on replacement, whether individuals reproduce enough in their lifetime to replace themselves. In spatial populations, one needs to account for the effect of larval dispersal on future recruitment back to the local population through local retention and other connectivity pathways. The most commonly reported descriptor of larval dispersal was the fraction of recruitment from local origin (self-recruitment). Self-recruitment does not inform persistence-based MPA design because it is a fraction of those arriving, not a fraction of those leaving (local retention), so contains no information on replacement. Some studies presented connectivity matrices, which can inform assessments of persistence with additional knowledge of survival and fecundity after recruitment. Some studies collected data in addition to larval dispersal that could inform assessments of population persistence but which were not presented in that way. We describe how three pieces of empirical information are needed to fully describe population persistence in a network of MPAs: (1) lifetime fecundity, (2) the proportion of larvae that are locally retained (or the full connectivity matrix), and (3) survival rate after recruitment. We conclude by linking theory and data to provide detailed guidance to empiricists and practitioners on field sampling design and data presentation that better informs the MPA objective of population persistence. © 2014 by the Ecological Society of America.",,257-270,,2,24,,Ecol.

In order to gain the most benefit from tourism, planning and management is vital for successful tourism destination development and the attainment of conservation goals. This process should involve all stakeholders who might be affected by tourism and associated developments. In order for collaboration to be effective, there are certain social aspects that need to exist in stakeholder relationships such as open communication, transparency, and trust. Research has shown that these social variables are vital for the successful collaborative management of natural resources, and as such are important to the health of social and ecological systems upon which the future of tourism depends. This article investigates stakeholder relations and how these have influenced the Mnemba Island Marine Conservation Area in Zanzibar, Tanzania. Findings suggest a lack of structure in the working relationships of key stakeholders. As a result, these relationships are strained. Despite the importance of formal agreements and structured relations, these have been difficult to implement due to stakeholder conflict over resource control. Social variables (e.g., trust, transparency) shaping stakeholder relations had a largely negative impact on the health of social and ecological systems.

Shirvan National Park (SNP), founded in 2003, is the first national park of the country (54,400 ha). Its main conservation objective is the protection of one of the last remaining Goitred Gazelle (Gazella subgutturosa subgutturosa) populations in Azerbaijan as well as waterfowl. Currently, numerous land use conflicts exist due to the long-term subsistence uses by local communities in the national park territory. In order to settle these conflicts, the consideration of the broader human context of the national park is required. Hence, the objective of this study is to analyse the development of socio-economy after the transition to market economy, the current situation of land use as well as land use conflicts in the Shirvan National Park Region (SNPR). This region is located outside and adjacent to the national park (76,400 ha with 19 settlements and 30,000 inhabitants). Farming represe nts the economic mainstay of locals. It was found that the agricultural sector of the SNPR is shaped to a great extend by the consequences of the privatisation of kolkhozes and sovkhozes which impacted on the crop mix, crop productivity and on the number of livestock. The socio-economic situation of the coastal region is additionally affected by the effects of the risen Caspian Sea level which increased the high unemployment rate and out-migration. On this background, the current performance of twelve farms in a study village within the SNPR is examined to identify which kinds of farming systems exist after the transition to a market economy and which factors constrain good farm performance and rural development. Furthermore, the study analyses land use practices (livestock grazing, hunting, fishing, military training and oil drilling) in and around the SNP and associated conflicts with conservation objectives. With the establishment of the national park land uses carried out by locals (e.g. livestock grazing) were prohibited while land use practices of national interest (military training and oil drilling) could continue. This is considered to be socially unjust and not sufficient to reach all nature conservation objectives of the SNP. It is concluded that the current national park m anagement is not able to cushion the impacts on people's livelihood caused by the economic transition, the risen Caspian Sea level and the national park designation. The inclusion of the adjacent national park region in the management is required for settling the current land use conflicts. The management should involve the economic activities of people in a bottom-up approach in a conservation framework. The development of eco-tourism and the sustainable utilisation of gazelles are suggested as strategies to economically compensate villagers for land use restrictions and to decrease their dependency on the national park.",,101-128,,4,44,,Archiv.

A range of design features must be considered when designating MPAs, including MPA size and shape, level of protection, and the species and habitats protected, and evidence suggests these design elements can be crucial in determining MPA effectiveness. Over the past several decades, expansive literature has emerged providing recommendations for MPA design, and yet collectively these recommendations can be overwhelming and even contradictory for MPA planners. To address this barrier, we reviewed and synthesized 307 unique MPA design recommendations across 56 peer-reviewed and gray literature publications. We created a new set of 24 condensed design guidelines grouped by conservation objectives: ecological spatial connectivity (e.g., genetic, larval, community); habitat representation; species or population persistence; mitigation of and complementarity to human activities; and permanence and adaptability. We then discuss examples of datasets, models, and tools that can be utilized to implement specific guidelines. Our review and novel synthesis can help decision-makers understand and apply MPA design recommendations to achieve desired conservation objectives. © 2023 The Authors.

Aims To provide new winter population estimates for Great Britain, its constituent countries, Northern Ireland, Channel Islands and Isle of Man, for five species of gull. Methods Observers undertook counts of gulls at roosts across three winters. Population estimates were produced by combining counts from key inland and coastal sites and estimates derived from stratified random sampling of inland tetrads and coastal stretches. Results Over 3.8 million gulls were estimated to winter in the UK and its near-shore coastal waters, a total that, due to more comprehensive methods, adds appreciably to previous estimates. Results inform conservation listings and required site-based conservation measures. Twenty sites held internationally important numbers of individual species and 37 internationally important assemblages and provisionally could qualify as Special Protection Areas for gulls alone. Forty-nine sites held nationally important numbers of particular species and provisionally could be notified as Sites/Areas of Special Scientific Interest solely for their importance for gulls.

Conservation planning research has focused largely on where to prioritize protected areas to achieve the greatest representation of species at viable levels. Meanwhile research on reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD+) has focused largely on how to design payments to achieve the greatest additional reduction in greenhouse gases relative to baseline rates. This divergence of strategies and research agendas may be attributed to four factors: rare species are more heterogeneously distributed than carbon; species are more difficult to measure and monitor than carbon; species are more sensitive to ecological processes and human disturbance than carbon; and people's value for species diminishes beyond a threshold while their value for carbon storage does not. Conservation planning can achieve greater biodiversity benefits by adopting the concept of additionality from REDD+. REDD+ can achieve greater climate benefits by incorporating spatial prioritization from conservation planning. Climate and biodiversity benefits can best be jointly achieved from tropical forests by targeting the most additional actions to the most important places.

The world's oceans and coastal communities face such threats, prompting increasing interest in establishing conservation measures. Systematic conservation planning (SCP) is a structured approach to establish conservation measures with clearly defined objectives, such as protected areas. Many Indigenous peoples are resurging to reclaim and protect some of their traditional lands and revitalize their cultures as rights holders. SCP goals and Indigenous goals could thus align. This research documents the Indigenous-led marine conservation planning process of the Songhees Nation to reclaim and assert stewardship around the Tl'ches archipelago near Victoria, Canada. We compare the Songhees marine conservation planning approach to SCP approaches. The Songhees approach showed similarities to SCP in the initial scoping phase of the marine conservation planning, in the review and compiling of existing data prior to the collection of data as well as the focus on focal species. The Songhees approach to marine conservation planning also differed from SCP as it included one zone only, did not involve any other stakeholders, and tried to account for the whole social-ecological system in one process step.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) with partial fishing restrictions are socially more acceptable, but their ecological effectiveness has largely not been assessed. The effects of establishing partial reserves on a target species, forkbeard, Phycis phycis (Linnaeus, 1766), were assessed in MPAs in the Mediterranean: Cap de Creus (Spain) and Lastovo (Croatia). Materials and methods. In this study, we performed separate statistical analyses based on measurements of length and age for 381 forkbeard from Cap de Creus (2008- 2011) and 739 forkbeard from Lastovo Islands (2010-2012) as indicators of fishing effects on target fish populations. Results. The establishment of partial reserves in both MPAs, with different regulations imposed on professional and recreational fishing has not proven successful in achieving benefits for a sedentary, relatively long-lived target species such as Phycis phycis. Results of multi-annual research indicate no significant difference in the abundance, mean size, or age of P. phycis between the fishing zones of different protection levels in either of the studied MPAs. Conclusion. In order to achieve the desired benefits for coastal fisheries resources, we recommend that partial fishing reserves are supplemented with integrated networks of no-take zones. © 2015, Scientific Society of Szczecin.

This adaptive co-management model is now being applied nationally through the Marine (Scotland) Act (2010). However, no information exists on salmon fishery stakeholders' perceptions of seal predation impacts and related costs, which could influence the success of the MFSMP and other similar initiatives. In 2006 a questionnaire survey of the 95 salmon rod fisheries in seven major Moray Firth rivers was undertaken, and all 20 active salmon netting stations in the Firth. Forty-five fishery owners, 39 ghillies, 120 anglers and 11 netsmen (representing 17 netting stations) responded. The majority (81%) believed that seals had a significant or moderate impact on stocks and catches, 77% believed that all seals were responsible and 47% supported seal culling. Seals were sighted by 38% of rod fisheries, and 18% lost angler days from seal interference. Overall, 0.2% of total reported angler days were lost annually. The estimated direct cost of seal interference for responding rod fisheries was Ł14,960annum-1, and losses of catches and damage to nets was Ł16,500annum-1 for responding netsmen. Stakeholders' perceptions were largely inconsistent with their low direct costs and the aims of the MFSMP.

Overall, seals had the greatest impact on the Moriston, where removal of a single animal could increase cumulative catch by 17% during the fishing season. On the Conon and Spey the impacts were negligible, and resulted in increased catches of <1% annually. On all rivers eliminating seal predation had the greatest impact during the spring due to the smaller size of spring salmon sub-stocks. A generalised model of seal removal illustrated that stocks and catches increased by >33% in rivers with monthly rod catches ?10 fish, but declined to <10% for rivers with catches >34 fish. The outputs of the models are qualitative, but provide a management tool for targeting action to resolve seal-salmon fishery conflict. Smaller salmon population units, and spring salmon sub-stocks and fisheries in particular, are most vulnerable to predation.

Within the Moray Firth, north-east Scotland, there is a history of conflict between seals and salmon fisheries. Under the UK's Conservation of Seals Act 1970 (CoSA) seals are shot to protect fisheries. In 1999 six rivers in the Moray Firth were designated as Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) for Atlantic salmon under the EU Habitats Directive, and in 2000 an SAC for harbour seals was designated in the Dornoch Firth. 2. In the 1990s salmon stocks declined. Fisheries managers believed the decline was partly caused by seal predation and consequently increased shooting effort. In years 1993-2003 Moray Firth harbour seal numbers declined possibly due to shooting, posing a potential threat to the status of the Dornoch Firth SAC. Meanwhile wildlife tourism based on marine mammals has increased. The declines in salmon and harbour seals, and the implementation of the Habitats Directive forced a watershed in the approach of statutory authorities to managing seals, salmon and tourism. 3. In years 2002-2005 local District Salmon Fishery Boards, the Scottish Executive, Scottish Natural Heritage and stakeholders negotiated a pilot Moray Firth Seal Management Plan to restore the favourable conservation status of seal and salmon SACs, and to reduce shooting of harbour seals and seal predation on salmon. 4. Key facets of the plan are the management of the Moray Firth region under a CoSA Conservation Order; application of the Potential Biological Removal concept to identify a limit of seals to be killed; management areas where removal of seals is targeted to protect salmon, while avoiding seal pupping and tourism sites; a training and reporting system for marksmen; a research programme, and a framework allowing an annual review of the plan. 5. The plan was introduced in April 2005. A maximum limit of 60 harbour and 70 grey seals was set. Forty-six harbour and 33 grey seals were killed in 2005 while in 2006 these figures were 16 and 42 respectively. Although the numbers killed were below the maximum limits in both years the returns raised questions about the plan's ability to manage seal shooting at netting stations. The plan provides a useful adaptive co-management framework for balancing seal and salmon conservation with the protection of fisheries and/or fish farms and tourism for application in the UK and internationally.

One such strategy is moving livestock to temporary camps that are closer to areas of underutilized forage during times of drought. In areas where pastoralists graze near large protected areas, movement into protected areas, where both forage quantity and quality are higher, is also a common strategy. The aim of this study is to test hypotheses of herd relocation and effects of seasonality and herd size on spatially explicit parameters of cattle mobility for Maasai pastoralists along the northern border of a protected area in Kenya. Modified Global Positioning System (GPS) collars were placed on cattle from ten Maasai households that recorded three parameters of mobility for hundreds of grazing orbits from August 2005 to August 2006. Data were grouped by two constraintsseasonality and herd sizeand tested against the two types of enclosure locations (temporary camps and permanent settlements). Hypotheses were formed on the basis of the current knowledge within the literature and analyzed using a series of analyses of variance. Results suggest that household relocation reduces the stress faced by pastoralists and their cattle during the drought by (1) lowering the average total daily distance and time traveled by cattle, (2) directing cattle toward the protected area, and (3) concentrating cattle grazing in distinct areas within the protected area. Herd size was found to have no effect on duration of travel for pastoralists that choose not to relocate during the drought. The research demonstrates how the use of modified low-cost GPS collars can be an effective tool for capturing parameters of mobility and for inferring pastoralist-livestock-rangeland relationships.",,309-334,,2,99,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000265287300005,,,,,,,cattle; CONSERVATION; drought; ECOSYSTEMS; Global Positioning System; GPS COLLAR; herd size; KNOWLEDGE; LAND-USE; LIVESTOCK; Maasai; mobility; pastoralism; PASTURES; RAINFALL; RISK MANAGEMENT; seasonality; SETTLEMENT,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Therefore, this study's aim was to develop management recommendations, based on easily interpreted conclusions that can be used to address the socio-ecological difficulties that the artisanal, bottom-longline fishery in Bejuco, Pacific coast of Costa Rica faces. The results of previously recorded fisher socio-ecological perceptions and an evaluation of the spotted rose snapper's, Lutjanus guttatus, population dynamics were assigned a measurable set of indicators in reference to the fishery's natural, human and management sub-systems. This was done via the traffic light method with easily interpreted colors based on a review of similar published fisheries studies. According to these results, a stock assessment for the fishery's target species and research to determine the composition and magnitude of the fishery's discarded species were recommended. Fisher economic dependence on bottom-longline activities led to the recommendation to develop alternative livelihood strategies. Also, the promotion of alternative markets and sustainability certification strategies for the snapper fishery are advised. Enlargement of the multi-use marine protected areas within the fishery's grounds and improvement of their management strategies is also recommended. In order for this to occur, improved resource user coordination in the form of a fisher association that has the capability to lobby for increased enforcement of the protected areas from destructive fisheries must be realized. Doing so would aid the development of a local management plan and participatory governance system. Such an initiative would justify the development of community lead marine protected area management regimes.",,475-492,,2,65,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000404822900004,,,,,,,CATCH; COASTAL; COMANAGEMENT; CONSERVATION; GOVERNANCE; indicator-based management; LIVELIHOOD; OBJECTIVES; participatory governance; REFERENCE POINTS; SELECTIVITY; small-scale fisheries; SNAPPER LUTJANUS-GUTTATUS; socio-ecological systems; traffic light method,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Despite poorly understood natural history and uncertain estimates of diversity, marine fungi have been identified as a major source of new natural products with pharmacological applications. The aims of this study were (1) to characterize fungi associated with marine sponges in protected areas of the Pacific and Caribbean coasts of Panama, and (2) to examine their effects through radioligand binding assays on endothelin ETA (ETA) and neuropeptide Y Y1 (Y1) receptors, which provide an indication of cardioprotective potential. A total of 369 marine sponges were collected in areas of high biodiversity along the Panamanian coasts, including 156 from the western Caribbean and 213 from the eastern Pacific. From these, 2,747 and 2,263 fungal isolates were recovered, respectively, with variable isolation frequencies when sponge fragments were cultivated on five media. After determining the seasonality, geographic stucture, and taxonomic diversity of these fungal assemblages, we identified five strains that inhibited by > 50% the binding of [3H] BQ-123 and one the binding of [3H] neuropeptide Y to the ETA and Y1 receptors, respectively, at 100 ?g/ml. Further studies are required to determine whether these interactions are agonistic or antagonistic.

We present an analysis aimed to evaluate how the protected area networks in two countries, Spain and Uruguay, represent the national ecosystems diversity. First, we identified the functional space (continuum approach) of natural vegetation in each country, using two functional attributes derived from vegetation indices (VI), mean VI (VI-I) and relative range (RREL). The VI-I is an estimator of the fraction of photosynthetic active radiation absorbed by the canopy, and the RREL is a surrogate of the seasonality of radiation interception. The functional space defined in this way constitutes a rapid way to describe the whole ecosystems variability within a region. Moreover, it allows the evaluation of the representation of the network, as the used variables are related to ecosystems’ response to the regional environmental gradient. Thus, this methodology identifies not only the common and singular protected areas in each country, but also the gaps in the network, and how redundant or complementary are the protected areas in the national context of ecosystem functioning. © 2008 Asociacion Espanola de Ecologia Terrestre.

Remote sensing provides adequate tools for that because it provides indices that inform repeatedly and for large areas of land, about matter and energy exchanges between the biota and land sur1face. Considering this principle, and the continuous improvements in the availability of satellite data of higher quality and friendly use, we have developed with the Autonomous Organization of National Parks of Spain (OAPN), a monitoring system that complements other monitoring initiatives from this agency to inform about the conservation status of national parks. The system, called REMOTE, is based on the most used spectral vegetation indices on scientific literature, EVI (Enhanced Vegetation Index) and NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index), derived from the time series of satellite images of the MODIS-Terra sensor. The systems allows to progress in identification of reference conditions to understand and predict ecosystems response against environmental perturbations or management actions, and their directional changes (trends) they are experiencing. Likewise, establishment of reference conditions helps to identify anomalies that warn of sudden changes in ecosystem functioning. The system uses as ecosystem functioning indicators three attributes related to the annual carbon gains (net primary production) by the canopy, their seasonality and phenology. In addittion, Remote has been designed and programmed on open and free software allowing future modifications and improvements in an easy way.

The future effects of climate change on biodiversity have been intensively studied globally over the past two decades. Currently, dry ecoregions are among the most threatened ecosystems in the world. In South America, three such seasonal dry ecoregions stand out: the Cerrado, Caatinga, and the Gran Chaco. Among these, the Chaco has experienced high deforestation rates and landscape degradation over the last decade, making it a top priority for conservation efforts. In this study, we employed ecological niche modeling to estimate the present and future distribution of snakes in the Chaco region. Our goal was to assess how snake diversity will change with projected climate changes across this geographic area. Our findings suggest that snake assemblages in the Chaco will undergo significant changes under future climatic conditions, with a clear trend toward biotic homogenization of the ecoregion and a decrease in species richness. These negative changes will likely extend to the protected areas within the Chaco, resulting in biotic homogenization and a loss of species richness. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,224,,J.

Marine protected areas (MPAs), a form of spatial management in which parts of the ocean are regulated to fishing, are now a common tool in MSP for conserving marine biodiversity and managing fisheries. However, the use of MPAs in MSP often neglects, or simplifies, the redistribution of fishing and non-fishing activities inside and outside of MPAs following their implementation. This redistribution of effort can have important implications for effective MSP. Using long-term (14 yr) aerial surveys of boats at the California Channel Islands, we examined the spatial redistribution of fishing and non-fishing activities and their drivers following MPA establishment. Our data represent 6 yr of information before the implementation of an MPA network and 8 yr after implementation. Different types of boats responded in different ways to the closures, ranging from behaviors by commercial dive boats that support the hypothesis of fishing-the-line, to behaviors by urchin, sport fishing, and recreational boats that support the theory of ideal free distribution. Additionally, we found that boats engaged in recreational activities targeted areas that are sheltered from large waves and located near their home ports, while boats engaged in fishing activities also avoided high wave areas but were not constrained by the distance to their home ports. We did not observe the expected pattern of effort concentration near MPA borders for some boat types; this can be explained by the habitat preference of certain activities (for some activities, the desired habitat attributes are not inside the MPAs), species' biology (species such as urchins where the MPA benefit would likely come from larval export rather than adult spillover), or policy-infraction avoidance. The diversity of boat responses reveals variance from the usual simplified assumption that all extractive boats respond similarly to MPA establishment. Our work is the first empirical study to analyze the response of both commercial and recreational boats to closure. Our results will inform MSP in better accounting for effort redistribution by ocean users in response to the implementation of MPAs and other closures. © 2016 by the Ecological Society of America.",,416-428,,2,27,,Ecol.

While some improvements in fisheries management have been made in these regions, a large fraction of coastal fisheries remain unmanaged, mismanaged, or use only crude input controls. These quasi-open-access conditions often lead to severe overfishing, depleted stocks, and compromised food security. A possible fishery management approach in these institution-poor settings is to implement fully protected marine protected areas (MPAs). Although the primary push for MPAs has been to solve the conservation problems that arise from mismanagement, MPAs can also benefit fisheries beyond their borders. The literature has not completely characterized how to design MPAs under diverse ecological and economic conditions when food security is the objective. We integrated four key biological and economic variables (i.e., fish population growth rate, fish mobility, fish price, and fishing cost) as well as an important aspect of reserve design (MPA size) into a general model and determined their combined influence on food security when MPAs are implemented in an open-access setting. We explicitly modeled open-access conditions that account for the behavioral response of fishers to the MPA; this approach is distinct from much of the literature that focuses on assumptions of “scorched earth” (i.e., severe over-fishing), optimized management, or an arbitrarily defined fishing mortality outside the MPA’s boundaries. We found that the MPA size that optimizes catch depends strongly on economic variables. Large MPAs optimize catch for species heavily harvested for their high value and/or low harvesting cost, while small MPAs or no closure are best for species lightly harvested for their low value and high harvesting cost. Contrary to previous theoretical expectations, both high and low mobility species are expected to experience conservation benefits from protection, although, as shown previously, greater conservation benefits are expected for low mobility species. Food security benefits from MPAs can be obtained from species of any mobility. Results deliver both qualitative insights and quantitative guidance for designing MPAs for food security in open-access fisheries. © 2019, The Author(s).",,,,1,9,,Sci.

The present study aims to assess uptake and distribution of total mercury (THg) and methylmercury (MMHg) within H. portulacoides, potential mercury release by volatilization through leaves, and toxicity and tolerance mechanisms by investigating plant photochemical responses. Stem cuttings of H. portulacoides were collected from a salt-marsh within the Tagus estuary natural protected area, and grown under hydroponic conditions. After root development, plants were exposed to 199HgCl2 and CH3 201HgCl, and sampled at specific times (0, 1, 2, 4, 24, 72, 120, 168 (7 days) and 432 h (18 days)). After exposure, roots, stems and leaves were analysed for total 199Hg (T199Hg) and MM201Hg content. Photobiology parameters, namely efficiency and photoprotection capacity, were measured in leaves. Both THg and MMHg were incorporated into the plant root system, stems and leaves, with roots showing much higher levels of both isotope enriched spikes than the other plant tissues. Presence of both mercury isotopes in the stems and leaves and high significant correlations found between roots and stems, and stems and leaves, for both THg and MMHg concentrations, indicate Hg translocation between the roots and above-ground organs. Long-term uptake in stems and leaves, leading to higher Hg content, was more influenced by temperature and radiation than short-term uptake. However, the relatively low levels of both THg and MMHg in the aerial parts of the plant, which were influenced by temperature and radiation, support the possibility of mercury release by stems and leaves, probably via stomata aperture, as a way to eliminate toxic mercury. Regarding photochemical responses, few differences between control and exposed plants were observed, indicating high tolerance of this salt marsh plant to THg and MMHg. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.",,111-120,,,650,,Sci.

These fisheries remain poorly characterized, making it difficult to estimate their potential impact, especially on non-targeted catch such as elasmobranchs. A rapid assessment framework was used to investigate the exploitation, use, and relative abundance of elasmobranchs and predatory teleosts in a region along the Caribbean coast of Colombia. In-person structured interview surveys (n = 188) were conducted during the autumn of 2016 at eight fishing towns around Cartagena and the islands of the Natural National Park (NNP) Corales del Rosario and San Bernardo. Baited remote underwater video systems (BRUVS) (n = 200) deployed at four reefs were used to assess the relative abundance of elasmobranchs and other predatory teleosts. Fishers reported capturing eight shark and five ray taxa. Although 99% of fishers indicated that they did not target sharks, 83% reported keeping the catches to sell, eat, or both. Similarly, 81% of fishers did not target rays, but 90% reported retaining catches. Most fishers (84%) perceived a decline of sharks in the coastal waters since they started fishing, compared with 41% reporting batoid declines. BRUVS data support the perceptions of elasmobranch declines. Elasmobranch abundances were very low and no difference was detected between protected and unprotected reefs. Results were similar for teleost taxa, but there were higher abundances inside one marine protected area (MPA) that had high enforcement. Taken together, the data suggest considerable degradation of not only elasmobranch populations but also predatory fish populations of coral reef habitats in a region of the Colombian Caribbean. Furthermore, artisanal fishers continue to exploit coral reef resources inside MPAs unless there is strong enforcement. Enforcement can be difficult with limited resources, and therefore community-based conservation methods may be more effective. Engagement with the local fishing community may help to reduce existing tensions and improve compliance. © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,1401-1415,,9,32,,Aquatic Conserv. Mar. Freshw.

Nevertheless, restrictions on artisanal fishing have increased through a fishing charter (1999). In the meantime, recreational fishing was progressively banned, which has helped as a management tool to make the restrictions on artisanal fishing acceptable in social terms. Monitoring of the artisanal fishing (2000-2005) reveals the stability of the fishing fleet (9-13 vessels); of the fishing effort [number of fishing sets per day between 3.4 (±2.1) and 6.9 (±3.4) in spring, and 3.0 (±1.7) and 5.2 (±2.7) in summer]; and of yields [catch per unit effort between 1.27 (±0.72) and 1.68 (±1.44) kg 100 m of net-1 d -1].

These roles have strengthened capacity in policy development and enhanced connections between decision makers and the public. How environmental NGOs navigate the tension between maintaining independence from government while also influencing decisions within political systems is not well understood. A change in the government of Canada following the 2015 national election provided an opportunity to explore the dynamic relationships between ENGOs and government. The government enlisted the assistance of ENGOs to achieve the 2020 national marine protection targets. In this study, the activities of two ENGOs—WWF-Canada (a national NGO) and the Ecology Action Centre (a local NGO)—regarding planning for three marine protected areas (MPAs) were studied. The objective of this research was to increase understanding of the role of ENGOs in decision making regarding MPAs, particularly focusing on how ENGOs use information in formal and informal processes to fulfil their mandates to promote marine conservation. Data were obtained from interviews; observations of formal and informal meetings and conversations; content analysis of email exchanges of the ENGOs with government staff, other ENGOs and numerous stakeholders; and review of key publications and public research reports. The results demonstrate the significant role of ENGOs in conservation governance and the major strategies that they use in deploying information at the science-policy interface. The ENGOs operate in an important boundary-spanning role using four types of action (hard advocacy, soft advocacy, gathering information and intelligence, and administration) and their interactions with diverse stakeholders. The ENGOs bridged interactions between government and stakeholders and transmitted scientific data and information, generated by researchers, to decision makers. The boundary-spanning activities of the ENGOs uniquely positions them in conservation decision processes. The ability to be flexible means that ENGOs can adapt their strategies to advance conservation policy and practice. © 2020 The Authors",,,,,115,,Mar.

This influx has encouraged the implementation of monitoring and management measures by managers of protected areas that promote tourism consistent with biodiversity conservation. However, the choices that need to be made to enforce these measures are particularly complex for they need to take into account the concerns of not only a territory that produces wealth for the local population and those who live in close proximity (due to the attraction to tourists) but also those of a territory that is sensitive and vulnerable environmentally speaking. With regard to the approach initiated by the Port-Cros National Park on the carrying capacity and character of the Park's core areas, we conducted a conflict diagnosis on Porquerolles, an island within the core area. Our aim was to bring to light the territorial realities relating to past and recent conflict situations, the reasons for disputes and the methods of managing them, thus providing focal points that would be useful to help with implementing measures relating to visitation to the island. This study, comprised of interviews, questionnaires, in-situ observations and analyses of legal documents, enabled us to go back over the conflicting history of the territory. It revealed a characterisation and spatialisation of disputes, including breaches of the Environmental Code. This research provided a framework within which the factors influencing the acceptability of visitor management measures could be reflected upon. Three conditions necessary for acceptability were identified for the island of Porquerolles using the conflict analysis: recognising and addressing a differential threshold of acceptance relating to visitation; strengthening trust between the different stakeholders and the proximities on the territory; envisaging a firmer penal policy to reduce the feeling of injustice associated with specific efforts in environmental protection. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,204,,Ocean Coast.

This article explores a key condition for meeting the challenge of improving conservation policies, as part of the global targets for biodiversity conservation, following the 2022 Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. The paper explores the determinants of social acceptance of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) by local communities impacted directly by MPAs designation. We focus on the Port-Cros National Park (France), which was established in 1963. The park has seen its governance, perimeter and internal zoning evolve over time, generating local opposition and underlining the importance of acceptance by local communities. This article highlights the factors that play a role in the social acceptance of this National Park based on the results of a questionnaire survey including 569 residents of the municipalities in and around the protected area. The approach we followed is part of a European research project that has developed a methodological protocol to identify interactions between social parameters that characterise the level of support and has been applied in 20 national parks. Our results reveal a high level of social acceptance for the National Park, with four main factors influencing acceptance: perceptions of the social impacts of the park, trust in management authorities, sociodemographic characteristics and conditions for citizen participation. Spatial disparities are also demonstrated. Our analysis also enables us to explain the components of constrained acceptance: this opens possibilities to explore the conditions under which local communities can feel more empowered and participate in the governance of the protected area. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,257,,Ocean Coast.

This is the most recent effort towards establishing a Portuguese legal entity for consolidating and creating a coherent Azorean network of offshore marine protected areas (MPAs). The proposal included seven existing designated MPAs: four offshore habitats located within the Azorean Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ; Banco Dom Joăo de Castro seamount, Sedlo seamount, Lucky Strike hydrothermal vent field and Menez Gwen hydrothermal vent field), one located beyond the Azorean EEZ (Rainbow hydrothermal vent field), and two Marine Important Bird Areas (North of Corvo Offshore, and North of Corvo and Faial Offshore). These MPAs had been nominated by various conservation organizations and site-specific legally binding recommendations have been developed. AMP recommendations were created for each site according to strict protection objectives and management objectives adapted from the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Protected Area Management Categories. Since its submission, three additional high seas MPAs in areas beyond national jurisdiction and subject to Portuguese continental shelf extension claims (Altair seamount, Antialtair seamount and an area of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge north of the Azores) were nominated in September 2010 by the OSPAR Commission. These MPAs have subsequently been proposed for inclusion in the AMP. With intensifying efforts to protect biodiversity, an increase in offshore Azorean MPAs is likely. Consequently, the AMP will likely extend its spatial limit to include new high seas MPAs and develop legally binding regulations for each new MPA as an on-going process. The full-scale ""one-stop agency"" AMP is envisioned to provide a representative offshore MPA network for the Azores that will protect all major ecosystem features in relation to their habitats and species, at an appropriate scale, within and across each bioregion. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,1175-1187,,8,14,,Environ.

In this study, we aim to assess the role of the Mediterranean embryonic dunes in trapping beach litter. Moreover, we investigate if dunes with native vegetation and those invaded by the alien plant C. acinaciformis differ in the trapping of beach litter. To this end, two samplings were carried out in the Tavolara-Punta Coda Cavallo Marine Protected Area, considering four beaches with different morphologies, using a paired sampling method that considers plots in the embryonic dunes and in the same habitat with C. acinaciformis. Our results indicate that plastic is the primary type of beach litter and that its distribution varied across the different beaches; especially, the greatest amount was found on pocket beaches. Based on our results, we can conclude that there are no differences between embryonic dunes with native vegetation and their invaded form, but the different beach morphologies may play a role in the distribution of beach litter. These findings may support habitat conservation initiatives such as the eradication of C. acinaciformis since it has no additional role in trapping beach litter. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,74,,Reg.

The aim of this research is to identify the potential areas for marine aquaculture operations in the central and northern Pacific coast of Costa Rica, considering five fish species of commercial interest and three operation scale scenarios (large, medium and small scale). The mapping procedure considers the biological suitability for the species to have an optimum development, the structural suitability for the fish cages to endure the environmental conditions (mainly waves and currents), and the operational suitability for operation and maintenance activities associated to the fish production (e.g. feeding, harvesting, maintenance). Sea surface temperature, salinity, water clarity, wind speed and currents in open coasts regions were obtained from global models and satellite data. Currents and wave data in the Gulf of Nicoya, one of the main estuaries of the country, were modeled numerically. Available docking sites, marine protected areas and tourism sites were used and obtained from the corresponding national official entities. Results show a high potential for marine aquaculture projects, specifically for large and medium scale operations. Three out of five study species present high suitability in most of the study site, and the other two species present promising results in the Gulf of Nicoya. Small scale operations have several areas with high suitability for marine aquaculture projects, with extensions ranging from 101 km2 to 2 118 km2 depending on the species. At a regional scale, the Pacific coast of Costa Rica presents high potential for fish aquaculture, being a promising development medium for coastal communities as long as it is environmentally sustainable and compatible with other coastal activities such as tourism. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,219,,Ocean Coast.

Landsat-8 and Sentinel 2A images are compared, along with three classification approaches (pixel-based, object-based, a mixture of both), to determine which combination yields the best B. halimifolia mapping results. All calculations were made using open-source software, including the ORFEO toolbox for the segmentations in the object-based approach, and the Scikit-learn package for the Support Vector Machines classification algorithm. The pixel-based classifications mapped the invasive species with an accuracy of 70% or higher for both images. The Landsat image had higher accuracy in the overall classification of the vegetation, but the Sentinel image proved better suited for mapping B. halimifolia specifically, due to its higher spatial and spectral resolution. In addition, the procedure was implemented using a Landsat image from 2005, and mapped the invasive species with an accuracy of 72% and 88% for producers and users accuracy respectively.

Coral reef ecosystems are also threatened by environmental stressors from anthropogenic sources and shifting climates. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 14 (“Life Below Water”) addresses the need to conserve and sustainably use the ocean, seas, and marine ecosystems, including reef systems. Belize’s coral reef system is the second largest in the world, providing sources of income to Belizeans through tourism and fisheries as well as coastline protection. In order to conserve their marine ecosystems, Belize has a network of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) throughout their coastal waters. Using Aqua MODIS satellite imagery from 2002 to 2022, Google Earth Engine, and RStudio, we present a workflow to calculate stress days on MPAs and a coral vulnerability index based on sea surface temperature (SST) and Kd (490), a proxy of water clarity. The Corozal Bay, Swallow Caye, Port Honduras, and South Water Caye MPAs had the highest percentages of stress days and coral vulnerability stress index score based on these two parameters among the 24 MPAs analyzed. Additionally, SST in the warmest month of the year in Belize were seen to increase across all MPAs from 2002 to 2022 (p < 0.01).

The objective of this study was to perform a survey of water quality and diversity of benthic macroinvertebrates in two sub-basins at the Mata do Junco Wildlife Refuge in the Brazilian state of Sergipe. The collection of data in the field, laboratory processing, and the interpretation and discussion of data were conducted in groups by students from two postgraduate programmes in Ecology and Conservation (UFMG and UFS), personnel of the state environment agency (SEMARH), school teachers from the local town of Capela, and members of the reserve's voluntary fire brigade. The results of the assessment were organised, analysed, and presented at the reserve headquarters in the form of posters, for the development of environmental education activities with pupils from local schools, as well as contributing to a SEMARH seminar. Samples were characterised by distinct taxonomic compositions and diversity, as confirmed by MDS and additive partitioning of diversity analyses. The gravel substrate presented the lower mean taxonomic richness in each sampling unit (?1=28%), while the average difference among samples (?1 diversity) was elevated for both substrates (39% for leaf litter, 41% for gravel), reflecting the pronounced variation among samples, even adjacent ones within the same stream. Diversity between streams was lower in the case of leaf litter in comparison with gravel (b2=21 and 31%, respectively). A total of 57 fish specimens were collected with a predominance of individuals of the orders Characiformes (62%) and Perciformes (21%). This rapid ecological assessment confirmed the importance of the conservation unit and emphasised the need for its continuation, given its importance for the maintenance of water quality and its other ecological services, such as the conservation of the region's aquatic biodiversity and providing the local town of Capela (circa 20,000 inhabitants) with its water supply, the Mata do Junco being its only source.",,937-947,,4,71,,Braz.

A suitable method for assessing the level of heavy metals and their toxicity in sediments is the calculation of pollution indices. The present research aims to assess heavy metal pollution in the Lower Danube surface sediments collected along the Danube course (between 180 and 60 km) up to the point where the Danube River flows into the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve (a United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization – UNESCO, protected area). In addition, this monitored area is one of the largest European hydrographic basins. Five heavy metals (Cd, Ni, Zn, Pb, Cu) were analyzed in two different seasons, i.e., the autumn of 2018 and the spring of 2019, using the Induc-tively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP– MS) technique. Our assessment of heavy metal pollution revealed two correlated aspects: 1. a determination of the potential risks of heavy metals in sediments by calculating the Potential Ecological Risk Index (RI), and 2. an evaluation of the influence of anthropogenic activities on the level of heavy metal contamination in the surface sedi-ments, using three specific pollution indices, namely, the Geo–Accumulation Index (Igeo), the Contamination Factor (CF), and the Pollution Load Index (PLI). The results of this pioneering research activity in the region highlighted the presence of moderate metal (Ni and Cd) pollution and a low potential ecological risk for the aquatic environment. © 2021 by the authors.

Despite this importance, quantitative and qualitative information on SSF is still largely lacking and when available, it tends to be scattered or very localized. SSF are also among the very few professional extractive activities generally allowed within Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), and are therefore expected to acquire further momentum in the near future in light of the projected increase of protected marine surface area due to international commitments. However, SSF associated with areas including MPAs may differ from those operating in unprotected contexts with regard to a range of socio-ecological aspects, thus potentially making management strategies currently in force unsuitable, and requiring the development of ad hoc local and regional policies. Here, we assessed the socio-ecological dimension of SSF operating within and around 11 Mediterranean MPAs, in six EU countries, with the aim of identifying relevant patterns that could inform policy and management relative to this fishing sector in view of the forthcoming increase of the marine surface area under protection. To do so, we have adopted a collaborative approach with fishers and combined a photo-sampling survey of 1,292 set net (mainly trammel-nets) fishing operations at landing with 149 semi-structured interviews with fishers, to gather information on features and catches of SSF fleets (e.g. vessel characteristics, gears, catch composition, catch and revenue per unit of effort). Overall, results highlighted: 1) multiple shared features emerging at regional level (i.e. among the 11 study areas), such as the predominant use of set nets, the major contribution of a limited number of species to the overall catch and revenue, the occurrence in the catch of threatened species and/or undersized individuals; 2) a variety of distinctive socio-ecological features differentiating local SSF communities such as the species mainly contributing to catch and revenue, species size distribution and fleet characteristics. In addition to presenting elements to inform common policies and strategies for SSF management in the context of MPAs, our study provides guidance for the development of a standard methodology for the full documentation of SSF in the Mediterranean Sea. © (2023), (Hellenic Centre for Marine Research).

Conservation problems can arise when high ungulate densities threaten species or habitats with conservation concern. Assessing factors influencing the intensity of their impact is important to identify appropriate measures enhancing habitat conservation. We assessed factors influencing wild boar Sus scrofa pressure on EU protected grasslands in three protected areas of central Italy, by modelling the effects of environmental variables and wild boar density on rooting activity. We seasonally estimated rooting in 126 sampling plots from spring 2019 to spring 2021, and we used faeces counts to estimate summer wild boar densities. Estimates of density and rooting varied from 3.5 to 22.2 individuals/km2 and from 1.1 to 19.2%, respectively. We detected a clear seasonal trend in rooting activity, that peaked in autumn and winter. We also found a strongly positive correlation between spring-summer rooting and summer density, across sites. Rooting intensity was negatively related to the local extent of rock cover and increased with the 1 month-cumulative rainfall, the perimeter of the grassland patch, and the forest cover around plots. These results emphasise the tendency of wild boar to exploit feeding sites in ecotonal areas, i.e., at the interface between forest and meadows, which maximises security and ease of finding food resources. Actions aiming at the protection of focal plants in grassland habitats, as well as reducing wild boar presence, are supported (e.g. fencing and/or targeting population control at vulnerable patches). © The Author(s) 2024.",,268-281,,2,74,,Environ.

This can result in underestimates of occupancy, where nondetection is conflated with absence. The site occupancy model (SOM) overcomes this failure by treating occupancy as a latent variable of the model and incorporates a detection submodel to account for variability in detection rates. These have rarely been applied in the context of marine fish and never for the multiseason dynamic occupancy model (DOM). In this study, a DOM is developed for a designated species of concern, cusk (Brosme brosme), over a four-season period. Making novel use of a high-resolution 3-dimensional hydrodynamic model, detectability of cusk is considered as a function of current speed and algae cover. Algal cover on the seabed is measured from video surveys to divide the study area into two distinct regions: those with canopy forming species of algae and those without (henceforth bottom types). Modeled estimates of the proportion of sites occupied in each season are 0.88, 0.45, 0.74, and 0.83. These are significantly greater than the proportion of occupied sites measured from underwater video observations which are 0.57, 0.28, 0.43, and 0.57. Individual fish are detected more frequently with increasing current speed in areas lacking canopy and less frequently with increasing current speed in areas with canopy. The results indicate that, where possible, SDM studies for all marine species should take account of detectability to avoid underestimating the proportion of sites occupied at a given study area. Sampling closed areas or areas of conservation often requires the use of nonphysical, low impact sampling methods like camera surveys. These methods inherently result in detection probabilities less than one, an issue compounded by time-varying features of the environment that are rarely accounted for marine studies. This work highlights the use of modeled hydrodynamics as a tool to correct some of this imbalance. © 2018 The Authors.

Low fish biomass suggests overfishing may contribute to degradation and lack of recovery to a coral-dominated state. However, coral reefs declined so long ago that most stakeholders have never seen a healthy reef ecosystem. Therefore, fishers today may not be able to imagine ecosystem services provided by healthy reefs. No-take reserves can reverse degradation by increasing herbivore abundance, reducing macroalgae, and increasing juvenile coral abundance, which, with time, should increase coral cover. Although Antigua designated marine protected areas, they are functionally ""paper parks"" with low compliance due to inadequate management and enforcement, and little community support. In 2014, we conducted meetings and interviews with fishers resulting in a community-based, no-take reserve managed by fishers in their fishing territory, which is unprecedented in the eastern Caribbean Sea. Our objective was to create a demonstration project for the fishing community so they can see the effects and profit from spillover of adults into the area they fish. Fishers interviewed described their perspective of the reef and the history of fishing. They supported the creation of a demonstration reserve and assisted in monitoring for compliance. This is the first collective action known to have occurred among Antiguan fishers. After 1 yr, biomass increased significantly in the reserve for all targeted fish species and for non-target species. One year after the reserve was established, parrotfish biomass increased and macroalgae decreased significantly based on repeated belt and point-intercept transects, respectively. © 2017 Rosenstiel School of Marine & Atmospheric Science of the University of Miami.",,217-232,,1,93,,Bull.

Coral reefs, the most diverse and complex marine ecosystem provide economic services for millions, but are seriously threatened worldwide because reef-building corals are experiencing bleaching phenomena and a steady decline in abundance. The resources of a Marine Protected Area (MPA) in Cartagena, Colombia, are in constant decline, despite a current management plan and on-site staff, urging new conservation actions. A multidisciplinary team gathered to evaluate management effectiveness including biophysical, socioeconomic and governance indicators. Coral cover and fish diversity and abundance were low both inside and outside the MPA, which suggests a limited efficiency of management. Currently, the MPA is a reef with low coral cover and high algae cover as well as large dead coral areas, which are generally signs of highly degraded reef habitats. Live coral cover in the MPA was represented by pioneer coral species such as Agaricia tenuifolia and Porites astreoides. Nonetheless, 35% of the scleractinian species sampled in the area harbored more than one zooxanthellae symbiont, which suggests potential resistance and resilience against coral bleaching. Maintenance of trophic structure and functional diversity is an important endeavor that should be a priority for management in order to allow ecosystem resilience. Social and governance indicators showed low-income levels and few opportunities for communities living in and around the park, low governability, weak communication among stakeholders and with authorities at different levels. As a result, problems related to over exploitation of resources were commonplace in the MPA. These results reflect low adaptive capacity of communities to comply with restrictive conservation rules, showing that establishment of a protected area is a necessary but insufficient condition to guarantee conservation goals. Ignoring the role of local communities only will exacerbate the problems associated with natural resources. Involvement of communities in strategic ecosystems management appears to be a requisite to improve effectiveness of protected areas, and participatory strategies, such as co-management, offer opportunities to improve governability while letting communities adapt to MPA needs. © 2008 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,935-956,,4,18,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"Agaricia tenuifolia; algae; Anthozoa; biodiversity; Bolivar [Colombia]; Caribbean; Cartagena [Bolivar]; CLIMATE-CHANGE; COASTAL; Colombia; COLOMBIA; comanagement; Community involvement; Community involvement, comanagement; community resource management; CONSERVATION; coral reef; Coral reefs; DIVERSITY; environmental policy; experimental economic games; Management effectiveness; marine park; Marine protected areas; MPA; Participatory methods; Participatory methods, experimental economic games; POPULATIONS; Porites astreoides; RESERVE; resilience; Scleractinia; Social-ecological systems; South America; Symbiodinium; SYMBIODINIUM; zooxanthella; Zooxanthellae",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In Costa Rica, forest fragments that remain outside protected areas may serve as a refuge or corridor for these animals. Mammal presence in fragmented landscapes may be influenced by resource availability, which varies greatly in seasonal regions. Objective: To determine the species richness of medium and large-sized mammals in a forest fragment, and to examine if species diversity and detectability varied between the wet and dry season. Methods: We established 26 camera trap stations throughout the Municipal Forest of Atenas (Alajuela, Costa Rica), a 26.4 ha forest fragment that provides water to about 1 800 people. From August 2021 to April 2022, one camera trap was active at each station for 12-21 days throughout each season (dry and wet), for a total of 810 camera trap days. We applied rarefaction and extrapolation curves to characterize mammal’s species diversity and compare it between seasons. Results: We detected 19 species of mammals. The most frequently detected species were the White-nosed Coati (Nasua narica; 0.254 detections/camera trap day), and the Central American Agouti (Dasyprocta punctata; 0.163 detections/camera trap day). We also registered four species considered as endangered in Costa Rica, three felines: Puma concolor, Herpailurus yagouaroundi, Leopardus pardalis, and the Neotropical River Otter, Lontra longicaudis. Seasonality did not affect species diversity, but it influenced dominant species and detectability, which was greater during the wet season. Conclusions: Our study demonstrates how protecting small forest fragments, can help conserve endangered medium and large-sized mammals in human-dominated landscapes. © 2023, Universidad de Costa Rica.

Besides serving as a source of income and subsistence for these communities, it also contributes to their food security as it is a source of proteins and micronutrients. Thus, the reproductive cycle of this species was studied aiming to contribute to food security and its preservation. Samples were collected monthly, between March 2014 and March 2015, in a natural stock (12°38'50”S; 38°51'43”W) in a Marine Reserve (RESEX Bay of Iguape) (community Engenho da Ponte), Bahia, Brazil. Mytella guyanensis is collected by women on site, where the artisanal fishing of this resource is performed without following any specific handling procedure. Also, empirical evidence indicates overexploitation. The specimens collected were measured along the anterior-posterior axis (length), and after macroscopic analysis they were fixed in Davidson solution, processed by routine histology techniques and stained with Harris haematoxylin and eosin (H&E). The macroscopic analysis showed sexual dimorphism, with the male and female gonads presenting a milky-white and orange colour, respectively. A 1:1 sex ratio (M: F) was observed and reproduction of the species was continuous all year round. March, April, July and August were the months with highest values of gamete elimination.

Moreover, global warming causes a drastic change on the biodiversity of rivers, seas, lakes, including in biodiversity hotspots and protected areas, such as the Venice Lagoon in Italy. A similar impact is caused by pollutants: this called for a large-scale long-term action that aims to monitor aquatic environmental parameters in order to predict, manage and mitigate these effects. Yet, coastal systems are highly heterogeneous in space and variable over short (daily), medium and long (seasonal, inter-annual) timescales, making reliable but affordable monitoring a challenging task. This paper proposes to automate this process with the use of a low-power sustainable integrated underwater and above water Internet of Things sensor network, able to collect water measurements in a cloud database and make them available to researchers to monitor the status of a certain area and develop their predictions models. Simulation results highlight how Low-Power Wide-Area Networks can support the data collection from a dense sensor deployment.  © 2022 IEEE.",,,,,2022-October,,,,,,,,Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Oceans Conf Rec IEEE,,,,Biodiversity; Coastal environments; Coastal zones; Conservation; Global warming; Hotspots; Internet of things; Littorals; Lora; LoRa; Low Power; Low power electronics; Marine systems; monitoring coastal environment; Monitoring coastal environment; Network infrastructure; Sensor networks; Underwater internet of thing; underwater internet of things; Underwater networks; Wide area networks,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Oceans Conference Record (IEEE),,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

One of the primary tools for conservation of marine species and the maintenance of ecosystem processes is the establishment of marine protected areas which is based on the identification of areas of high ecological value, or the identification of effective mitigation measures for the main threats. Bonifacio Bouches is mainly a coastal area which encompasses several Natura 2000 sites and is included in the Pelagos Sanctuary for the protection of marine mammals. Numerous regulations are applied here targeting shipping and related activities for environmental protection and navigation safety. Integrated data on cetacean species, maritime traffic and marine litter were collected from systematic surveys performed on board ferries crossing the Bonifacio Strait (2013–2019). Data were seasonally investigated considering spring/summer and autumn/winter as potentially different for ecological and anthropogenic conditions. Seasonal models of preferred habitat for fin whale, striped dolphin and bottlenose dolphin were compared with the existing protected areas, evidencing gaps of spatial protection measures for the species. A species sensitivity score was integrated with threats analyses highlighting the priority areas/seasons requiring enhanced conservation efforts. Despite the existing regulations, results showed that the intense anthropogenic pressure represents a risk for the ecological richness in many areas lacking of protection. Outcomes provide us indication on candidate areas where an extension of spatial protection measures could favour the priority bottlenose dolphin species, and the areas/seasons that need improved mitigation of the main threats. The application of similar approach in wider areas can be useful to verify protection measures for highly mobile species. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,517-541,,2,31,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,BIODIVERSITY; Bonifacio; BOTTLE-NOSED DOLPHINS; cetacean; Cetaceans; conservation status; environmental protection; habitat type; HABITAT USE; Habitats Directive; index method; integrated approach; LITTER; Marine litter; MARINE MAMMALS; marine park; Maritime traffic; Mediterranean Sea; Pelagos Sanctuary; PELAGOS SANCTUARY; Priority index; sensitivity analysis; STRAIT; TURSIOPS-TRUNCATUS; WATERS; WESTERN MEDITERRANEAN SEA,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This study analyzes salt marsh change at Fire Island National Seashore (FIIS), a nationally protected area, using object-based image analysis (OBIA) to classify a combination of data fromWorldview-2 andWorldview-3 satellites, topobathymetric Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR), and National Agricultural Imagery Program (NAIP) aerial imageries acquired from 1994 to 2017. The salt marsh classification was trained and tested with vegetation plot data. In October 2012, Hurricane Sandy caused extensive overwash and breached a section of the island. This study quantified the continuing effects of the breach on the surrounding salt marsh. The tidal inundation at the time of image acquisition was analyzed using a topobathymetric LiDAR-derived Digital Elevation Model (DEM) to create a bathtub model at the target tidal stage. The study revealed geospatial distribution and rates of change within the salt marsh interior and the salt marsh edge. TheWorldview-2/Worldview-3 imagery classification was able to classify the salt marsh environments accurately and achieved an overall accuracy of 92.75%. Following the breach caused by Hurricane Sandy, bayside salt marsh edge was found to be eroding more rapidly (F1, 1597 = 206.06, p < 0.001). However, the interior panne/pool expansion rates were not affected by the breach. The salt marsh pannes and pools were more likely to revegetate if they had a hydrological connection to a mosquito ditch (?2 = 28.049, p < 0.001). The study confirmed that the NAIP data were adequate for determining rates of salt marsh change with high accuracy. The cost and revisit time of NAIP imagery creates an ideal open data source for high spatial resolution monitoring and change analysis of salt marsh environments. © 2019 by the authors.",,,,9,11,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI AG,,,,Aerial photography; Antennas; Beaches; Change analysis; Conservation; Fire Island National Seashore; Floods; Hurricanes; Image analysis; Image resolution; NAIP aerial data; Open Data; Optical radar; Remote sensing; Salt marsh; Salt marshes; Sea level; Surveying; Topobathymetric LiDAR; Wetlands; Worldview-2; Worldview-3,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Further, the fish fauna of Beringia and, more broadly, of high latitude freshwater systems of the northern hemisphere face some of the most intense well documented effects of global climate change. Here we synthesize current understanding of how the dynamic spatial and ecological landscapes of Pleistocene glaciations have shaped the distribution of taxonomic and genetic diversity in fish faunas of Beringia. Through a more complete integration of knowledge obtained in studies of fishes in Russian drainages, we aimed to identify promising strategies to test alternative biogeographic hypotheses on the roles played by the Bering land bridge, paleorivers and glacial history in intercontinental faunal movement. We focus on freshwater fishes of the Bering Strait region, which live in an environment that is premised on extreme instability and profound changes in long-term connectivity for fishes and offers opportunities to assess long-term evolutionary trends in both speciation and life history variation. Such information is critical for both our scientific understanding of evolutionary processes in fishes and valuable for those tasked with the challenges of management and conservation of natural resources in this expansive, dynamic and remote region. We provide an overview of Beringian freshwater ichthyofauna and examine genetic differentiation among population units within these lineages. We also examine evidence for how long population units have been separated based on historic glacially-related separations and the more recent marine barrier of the Bering Strait that constrains freshwater or diadromous species based on their ability to disperse in salt water. Our review concludes on how Arctic and sub-Arctic fishes may adapt and persist in their dynamic environment considering low genetic diversity, the role of adaptive introgression, and epigenetic variation. We find that Beringian fishes may poorly fit traditional taxonomic categories and the designation of conservation units below the species level may be of great practical application. Furthermore, as hybridization is documented to increase in the Arctic, the use of this process for ecological monitoring may also be of high utility with Beringian fishes. © The Author(s) 2024.",,161-199,,1,34,,Rev.

Managers require timely and cost-effective techniques to obtain biodiversity information at appropriate scales and resolutions aligned with management objectives and stakeholders requirements. In this paper, a two-stage, multi-level data collection framework is presented that will aid managers to focus on what marine biodiversity collection techniques will meet their individual jurisdictional needs. The framework begins with an integrated planning process (objective setting, stakeholder identification, and sensitivity and gap analyses), that leads to a hierarchical approach for selecting biodiversity assessment techniques that will gather required marine biodiversity data. Complexity of scale and resolution increases as one progress's through the hierarchical levels of Stage II. The utility of using a hierarchical framework is that it surmounts the problem that no single technique can quantify all biological attributes necessary for management outcomes. Also, the user enters the framework at a hierarchical level that meets their requirements thus removing the collection of redundant data. Ultimately, the rapid assessment framework is based on the efficient and sufficient assessment of marine biodiversity. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.",,133-146,,03-Apr,49,,Ocean Coast.

Here, we evaluated coral reefs across 4,000 km of the Indonesian archipelago to reveal a large gradient of biomass, from '100 kg/ha to '17,000 kg/ha. Trophic pyramids characterized by planktivore dominance emerged at high biomass, suggesting the importance of pelagic pathways for reef productivity. Total biomass and the biomass of most trophic groups were higher within gear restricted and no-take management, but the greatest biomass was found on unmanaged remote reefs. Within marine protected areas (MPAs), 41.6% and 43.6% of gear restricted and no-take zones, respectively, met a global biomass target of 500 kg/ha, compared with 71.8% of remote sites. To improve conservation outcomes for Indonesia's biodiverse and economically important coral reef fisheries, our results suggest to: (1) strengthen management within Indonesia's existing MPAs and (2) precautionarily manage remote reefs with high biomass. © 2020 The Authors.

In countries where full exclusion of people from fishing may be perceived as inequitable, fishing-gear restrictions on nonselective and destructive gears may offer socially relevant management alternatives to build recovery of fish biomass. Even so, few researchers have statistically compared the responses of tropical reef fisheries to alternative management strategies. We tested for the effects of fishery closures and fishing gear restrictions on tropical reef fish biomass at the community and family level. We conducted 1,396 underwater surveys at 617 unique sites across a spatial hierarchy within 22 global marine ecoregions that represented 5 realms. We compared total biomass across local fish assemblages and among 20 families of reef fishes inside marine protected areas (MPAs) with different fishing restrictions: no-take, hook-and-line fishing only, several fishing gears allowed, and sites open to all fishing gears. We included a further category representing remote sites, where fishing pressure is low. As expected, full fishery closures, (i.e., no-take zones) most benefited community- and family-level fish biomass in comparison with restrictions on fishing gears and openly fished sites. Although biomass responses to fishery closures were highly variable across families, some fishery targets (e.g., Carcharhinidae and Lutjanidae) responded positively to multiple restrictions on fishing gears (i.e., where gears other than hook and line were not permitted). Remoteness also positively affected the response of community-level fish biomass and many fish families. Our findings provide strong support for the role of fishing restrictions in building recovery of fish biomass and indicate important interactions among fishing-gear types that affect biomass of a diverse set of reef fish families. © 2017 Society for Conservation Biology",,401-410,,2,32,,Conserv.

We quantified temporal changes in benthic composition, reef fish biomass, and fishing effort among marine park zones (including no-take areas) to assess levels of compliance following the 2005 rezoning of the government-controlled Karimunjawa National Park (KNP), Indonesia. Four years after the rezoning awareness of fishing regulations was high amongst local fishers, ranging from 79.5±7.9 (SE) % for spatial restrictions to 97.7±1.2% for bans on the use of poisons. Despite this high awareness and strong compliance with gear restrictions, compliance with spatial restrictions was weak. In the four years following the rezoning reef fish biomass declined across all zones within KNP, with >50% reduction within the no-take Core and Protection Zones. These declines were primarily driven by decreases in the biomass of groups targeted by local fishers; planktivores, herbivores, piscivores, and invertivores. These declines in fish biomass were not driven by changes in habitat quality; coral cover increased in all zones, possibly as a result of a shift in fishing gears from those which can damage reefs (i.e., nets) to those which cause little direct damage (i.e., handlines and spears). Direct observations of fishing activities in 2009 revealed there was limited variation in fishing effort between zones in which fishing was allowed or prohibited. The apparent willingness of the KNP communities to comply with gear restrictions, but not spatial restrictions is difficult to explain and highlights the complexities of the social and economic dynamics that influence the ecological success of marine protected areas. Clearly the increased and high awareness of fishery restrictions following the rezoning is a positive step. The challenge now is to understand and foster the conditions that may facilitate compliance with spatial restrictions within KNP and marine parks worldwide. © 2012 Campbell et al.",,,,11,7,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,analysis of variance; Animals; Anthozoa; article; benthos; biomass; Biomass; BIOMASS; CLIMATE-CHANGE; compliance (physical); CONSERVATION; Conservation of Natural Resources; Coral Reefs; CUSTOMARY MANAGEMENT; dynamics; Ecosystem; environmental monitoring; environmental protection; FISH; FISHERIES MANAGEMENT; Fishes; fishing; geographic distribution; government; Government; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; habitat quality; herbivore; Indonesia; Law Enforcement; mariculture; marine environment; nonhuman; planktivore; RESERVE NETWORKS; RESILIENCE; socioeconomics; VARIABLES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Based on the combined analysis of fisheries-dependent data comprising Vessel Monitoring System (VMS), Automatic Identification System (AIS) and electronic logbooks available for the Portuguese fleet operating within the area, it was possible to identify fishing trips and fishing events and define fishing trajectories, allowing the estimation of the fishing effort and the CPUE at a high spatial resolution. A total of 32 Portuguese vessels were identified to have undertaken fishing activity within the limits of this MPA, mainly longliners based on mainland ports, operating drifting and bottom longlines on a seasonal basis. Fleet-related differences in the distribution and intensity of fishing effort and CPUE for the main target species were addressed. The bottom longline activity concentrated, as expected, around the two seamount summits, where the presence of VMEs and sensitive habitat-forming species have been registered. The analysis of AIS data, the only dataset made available in this study for non-Portuguese vessels, strongly suggests that the foreign fleet operating within the Gorringe MPA represents a significant fraction of the fishing activity in the area.

The Antillean manatee (Trichechus manatus manatus) is classified as an endangered species in Brazil. Its distribution and behaviour are mainly influenced by the presence of aquatic vegetation, freshwater and anthropogenic activities, as well as by variations in tides, temperature and salinity. The study investigated the behaviour of manatees in the Barra do Rio Mamanguape Environmental Protection Area in north-eastern Brazil, and the relationship between these behaviours and the biotic and abiotic characteristics of this estuarine environment. The behavioural data were collected between November 2016 and May 2017, during 35 days of monitoring. The records of surface behaviour were obtained using animal focal sampling. Anthropogenic activities were recorded qualitatively and quantitatively during the surveys. Warmer water (30–31°C), reduced turbidity (1–2 m) and sandy sediments had a significant influence on the behaviour of the manatees. The manatees presented neutral behaviour more often than expected in response to anthropogenic activities, which indicates that the animals were undisturbed by these activities. This is the first systematic study of the influence of biotic and abiotic factors on the behaviour and ecology of Antillean manatees in a protected area of a tropical region, providing important new insights into the behavioural ecology of an endangered species. The Barra do Rio Mamanguape Environmental Protection Area seems to fulfil the goal of adequate management and conservation of manatees in a tropical region. Specifically, it shows that appropriate management, law enforcement and inspection measures are essential for maintaining endangered populations. © 2023 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,926-939,,9,33,,Aquatic Conserv.

Landscape planning requires clear aims and quantitative approaches to identify which key elements can reinforce the spatial coherence of protected areas design. We aim to explore the probability of the ecological connectivity of forest remnants and amphibian species distributions for current and future climate scenarios across the Central Corridor of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Integrating amphibian conservation, climate change and ecological corridors, we design a landscape ranking based on graph and circuit theories. To identify the sensitivity of connected areas to climate-dependent changes, we use the Model for Interdisciplinary Research on Climate by means of simulations for 2080–2100, representing a moderated emission scenario within an optimistic context. Our findings indicate that more than 70% of forest connectivity loss by climate change may drastically reduce amphibian dispersal in this region. We show that high amphibian turnover rates tend to be greater in the north-eastern edges of the corridor across ensembles of forecasts. Our spatial analysis reveals a general pattern of low-conductance areas in landscape surface, yet with some well-connected patches suggesting potential ecological corridors. Atlantic Forest reserves are expected to be less effective in a near future. For improved conservation outcomes, we recommend some landscape paths with low resistance values across space and time. We highlight the importance of maintaining forest remnants in the southern Bahia region by drafting a blueprint for functional biodiversity corridors. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.",,46-61,,1,65,,Environ.

Recent methodological advances make passive acoustic monitoring and associated acoustic index analysis an increasingly suitable method for PAs monitoring. Acoustic indices are mathematical filters that can provide standardised comparative information about the acoustic energy, which can be applied to compare communities. In this study we test whether acoustic indices are sufficiently sensitive to detect differences in the soundscape within each of the four seasons between a PA (the Serra do Cipó National Park, Brazil) and a surrounding farmland area. Statistical analysis of results from 12 acoustic indices is used to identify which of 20 acoustic regions, defined by frequency range and time period, present the greatest differences between the two sites. The soundscapes of the two sites differed most in autumn within the acoustic region 6, representing 05:30 – 09:00am and a range of 0.988–3.609 kHz. This acoustic region exhibited significant differences for all the 12 indices tested. Visual examination of 65 long-duration false-colour (LDFC) spectrograms resulted in the selection of 865 (from 1365) sound files with acoustic events within the range of acoustic region 6. Sonotype analysis of the 865 files showed that the soundscape outside the park is strongly influenced by human activity, with domestic animals rare in the park soundscape (1% of the sound files), but very common in the surrounding farmland environment (63% of the sound files). The main goal of monitoring programmes detecting biodiversity trends across space and time, which is here achieved via passive acoustic monitoring and acoustic indices. This confirms the utility of the techniques used here for PA monitoring, especially for detecting trends in anthropogenic disturbance, which is a common threat to natural habitats in parks and reserves in the tropics. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,120,,Ecol.

Historical overfishing has devastated populations of this remarkable fish across Amazonian floodplains, but community-based management programmes are now stimulating the recovery of wild populations. Pirarucu have evolved a unique set of life history traits, some of which have important implications for population management. Individuals exhibit lateral annual migration patterns during the prolonged annual flood pulse, entering flooded forests to reproduce and forage. During this period, although managed fish stocks become less monopolisable by local communities responsible for managing protected lakes, pirarucu can occupy and reproduce in new environments and thus potentially contribute to population recovery. Here, we show a strong pattern of pirarucu (Arapaima cf. gigas) population recovery under community-based management in an area along the Juruá River, in western Brazilian Amazonia. We show evidence of population recovery even outside formal protected areas, reinforcing the suitability of pirarucu community-based management as a powerful tool for both biodiversity conservation and the improvement of local livelihoods. We also show pirarucu movements across a floodplain mosaic—including lakes, the main river channel, tributary streams, and flooded forests—during the wet season. Our results support evidence of site fidelity among migrating pirarucu, justifying the high effort invested by local communities in seasonally protecting lakes from poachers and illegal fishers. Finally, restricted daily movement patterns by pirarucu support the suitability of population estimates based on day-time counts because the chance of double counting is substantially reduced during the day when these counts are conducted. We highlight the strong suitability of this species for community-based management, since they can: (1) replenish new environments during the wet season through migration and possibly also reproduction; and (2) be efficiently harvested during the dry season, delivering social and ecological benefits at large spatial scales. Positive examples of fisheries management, which align biodiversity conservation and social development, are important for building optimism, and influencing local and international stakeholders. Our study shows how engaging and empowering local communities to help monitor the movement ecology of target species can be an effective strategy to support the sustainable management of aquatic resources in tropical environments. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,1255-1264,,7,64,,Freshw.

In particular, it aims to point out the increasing role played by Italian regions in establishing and managing MPAs. This evolution is to be described by focusing attention on the North Adriatic case. Design/methodology/approach: After a brief introduction on the legislative framework, points of weakness and strength of the Italian experience in the field of MPAs are discussed. Different initiatives for promoting and implementing an MPA strategy are analyzed through the North Adriatic case study, pointing out the increasing role played by the regions in the design and implementation of protection policies. Findings: The analysis shows how regions direct greater attention to the involvement of the public and economic sector in the design and implementation of protection policies, and to the definition of more flexible management tools. This element clearly confirms the general and overall tendency towards more regional-based forms of environmental policy, even in coastal and marine affairs. However, in order to improve the environmental gains and implement sustainable forms of economic development, these regional initiatives should be better linked to a more comprehensive coastal zone management framework, which is still lacking. From this perspective, a national strategy for the Italian coast system could strongly contribute to increasing the role and effectiveness of regional initiatives aimed at protecting coastal and marine ecosystems. Originality/value: The North Adriatic case shows the growing need for integrated policies in different scale projects, enhancing the involvement of local communities toward their own territory. © Emerald Group Publishing Limited.",,59-71,,1,22,,Manage.

For environmental investments, it is necessary that benefits and the costs of environmental improvements should be identified in monetary terms in order to determine the feasibility of the investments. The aim of this study is to determine the benefits of the management alternatives to improve environmental quality in Göcek Bay to aid decision makers. In this study, the environmental benefits that can be obtained with improved water quality and restored marine ecosystem were calculated using the Choice Experiment Method, a non-market valuation technique. Data were analyzed using Multinomial Logit Model and the results showed that, local residents and tourists are willing to pay 18. TL/month and 16.6.

As part of a project to identify marine protected areas (MPAs) in Spanish Mediterranean waters, habitat preference models were developed using 11 years of survey data to provide predictions of relative density for cetacean species occurring off southern Spain. 2. Models for bottlenose, striped and common dolphin described, firstly, probability of occurrence (using GLMs) and, secondly, group size (using linear models) as predicted by habitat type defined by a range of physical and oceanographic covariates. Models for Risso's dolphin, long-finned pilot, sperm and beaked whales used only the first stage because of data limitations. 3. Model results were used to define the boundaries of three proposed Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) (under the EU Habitats Directive) and one proposed Specially Protected Area of Mediterranean Importance (SPAMI) (under the Barcelona Convention). 4. The study illustrates the value of habitat preference modelling as a tool to help identify potential MPAs. The analyses incorporate environmental data in a spatial prediction that is an improvement over simpler descriptions of animal occurrence. Contiguous areas covering a specified proportion of relative abundance can readily be defined. Areas with apparently good habitat but few observations can be identified for future research or monitoring programmes. 5. Models can be refitted as new observations and additional environmental data become available, allowing changes in habitat preference to be investigated and monitoring how well MPAs are likely to be affording protection. 6. The study represents an important contribution to the implementation of the Habitats Directive by the Spanish government by providing a robust scientific basis for the definition of SAC and providing results to inform conservation objectives and management plans for these areas. The results identified areas that are important for a number of cetacean species, thus illustrating the potential for MPAs to improve cetacean conservation generally in the Alboran Sea, a region of great importance for supporting biodiversity and ecological processes in the wider Mediterranean Sea.

Therefore, indirect estimation methods of the recreational value are used. Objective: Systematically analyze the advances in the estimation of the recreational value of the PNA, through the travel cost method (TCM). Methodology: A systematic literature review was carried out, based on SALSA (Search, AppraisaL, Synthesis, Analysis) and the PRISMA protocol (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses), in the following databases: Scopus, Science Direct, JSTOR, Springer Link, Dialnet, Google Scholar. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were used for studies carried out in PNA at a national and international level, in the period from 2010 to 2020. Main findings. Regarding the different approaches of the travel cost method, the individual approach provides more realistic estimates and has greater statistical support than the zonal approach; since it obtains the data directly from tourists through surveys, which allows estimating the real expenses they made during their trip. Implications: Derived from the complexity of estimating the value of an intangible, such as these areas of environmental services. The economic valuation exercise results in the estimation of the price of the service from the consumer's demand and not from its offer. In this sense, the TCM seeks to estimate the use value of the PNA, and not their market value as such. Hence, such assessment is a support tool for the managers of these sites, in order to: estimate adequate access fees; evaluate investments in the valued area; as well as expose specific approaches and techniques for data processing. Conclusions: The variables that influence the recreational value are: age, income level, distance traveled from the tourist's place of residence to the PNA, transportation costs, lodging, food costs, visits to other sites, perception of environmental quality, and willingness to pay (WTP) for the service. It is recommended to delve into intangible valuation techniques, so that society becomes aware of the benefit that PNA represent for a nation, and in this way public and private investments in this area are promoted; since in addition to improving the protection of biodiversity, it contributes to regional development.

The aim of the present study was to document the diversity and connectivity patterns among Sardinian Corallium rubrum populations focusing, in particular, on deep populations (>80m depth) where the commercial exploitation is concentrated. Microsatellite markers revealed high levels of inbreeding, heterozygote deficits, and significant genetic differentiation between and within areas at different depths, with an associated 'isolation by distance' pattern. These results indicated that for precious coral populations in Sardinia the 'deep reef refugia hypothesis', that envisages the capacity for deep corals to act as seed banks for the shallower impaired (over-harvested) populations, is not supported. The highest genetic diversity recorded in Sardinia for all areas and depths with respect to other Mediterranean areas indicates that the strict local management has been effective, since harvesting has not yet led to a substantial erosion of the genetic pool. Possible causes for the high levels of observed diversity in Sardinia are discussed in relation to hydrological conditions, its geographical position and its proximity to some putative glacial refugia. Thus, given the occurrence in Sardinia of highly diverse and differentiated deep-water populations of C. rubrum whose genetic diversity are important for the long-term resilience of the species, the results of the present study strongly support the close monitoring of harvesting, along with the maintenance or even strengthening of the current management and conservation measures (no-take protected areas) already in place in the area. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,236-250,,2,26,,Aquatic Conserv.

While integration of climate change into planning is critical, a recent global analysis found that relatively few MPAs have incorporated climate change considerations into formal management planning processes. Despite this, sessions and discussions at the Fifth International Marine Protected Areas Congress (IMPAC5) demonstrate that climate-adaptive management already permeates MPA processes, from day-to-day management to design and implementation. Here we review the results of an IMPAC5 knowledge exchange session that brought together a diverse group of MPA managers, Indigenous community representatives, and thought leaders to discuss improved integration of climate change into MPA management and planning. The session demonstrated the vibrancy, diversity, and engagement represented in the dynamic and fast-moving field of MPA climate change management and planning. In addition to sharing unique and diverse perspectives, the session leveraged the experience of experts to identify new and common challenges and gaps. As a result of this session, we present five recommendations, building on previous work, to guide MPA managers in the explicit and successful incorporation of climate adaptation into management planning and implementation. These recommendations hold the goal of ensuring an equitable, adaptive, and robust global MPA system. This review also provides a valuable summary of the vast repository of experience and knowledge of climate adaptive management contained within the MPA management community, and with community and Indigenous partners.

In this study we aim to (1) assess the invasion level and influence of B. halimifolia on native flora and to (2) quantify the performance of the exotic shrub in rush communities across fine-scale salinity and waterlogging gradients. Using floristic data collected in estuaries in Northern Spain we identified 3 sea rush community subtypes: low, medium and high salinity communities. B. halimifolia cover decreased from low to high salinity communities. Native species cover, richness and diversity and herbaceous-subshrub layer cover was significantly lower in invaded rush communities than in uninvaded ones. The reduction of the singular native estuarine species cover and richness was higher in the high and medium salinity community than in the low salinity community. Growth and reproductive traits measured on two consecutive years in invaded rush communities in Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve indicated that increased edaphic stress reduced B. halimifolia individual performance and enhanced attack by natural enemies. Moreover, leaf drop was more responsive to salinity in female than in male individuals. We conclude that fine-scale variations on edaphic stress played an important role in the invasibility of rush communities by affecting the individual performance of B. halimifolia, and might generate sex specific responses.

We walked along the banks of canals and small ponds (n = 22) 1-3 times per week between early February and mid-April each year to detect egg clutches. The relationships between the start of the breeding season, yearly egg mass counts, rate of yearly change in the number of recorded egg masses and 15 climatic and environmental variables were assessed by multiple regression. The first deposition of eggs occurred progressively later in the year throughout the study period and mean air temperature during the breeding season decreased over this period. Agile frogs showed high deposition site-fidelity. Despite large variations in the number of egg clutches detected from year to year, the population size remained stable in the long term. Peaks in the number of egg clutches occurred 2 years after the dredging of canals, carried out every 4-6 years to improve water availability, starting in 2004 as part of a LIFE Nature Project. This was the only predictor of the number of egg clutches deposited, suggesting that periodical management is needed to support the agile frog population. Our results reinforce the need for multi-year monitoring to determine both the long-term success of habitat restoration projects and the status of residual populations.

They have, however, been threatened by different types of impacts. Our objective was to study diatoms in stations representative of the main typologies in the Site of Community Importance IT3230060 ""Danta Mires"", also to produce data for a management plan in the frame of a Life Project. Five shallow pools within different mountain mires were sampled in summer 2005 and morphologically and physicochemically characterized. The sampled sites cover a rather wide pH and TDS content gradient with very low nitrate and silica values. Diatoms were found to dominate in terms of numbers of taxa, followed by desmids, cyanoprokaryotes and filamentous green algae. In total, 86 diatom taxa, belonging to 35 genera, were found. As expected for acidic, low-mineralization waters the genera with the highest number of taxa were Eunotia and Pinnularia, followed by Encyonema, Cymbopleura, Gomphonema, and Nitzschia. The most frequent and abundant taxa were: Frustulia crassinervia, Nitzschia acidoclinata, Kobayasiella micropunctata, Encyonema neogracile, Brachysira brebissonii, Nitzschia perminuta, and Encyonema lunatum. Taxa abundant only in one or few sites were: Eunotia paludosa, Staurosira spinarum, Encyonopsis cesatii, and Achnanthidium minutissimum. Several rare taxa of special interest for their distribution and/or rarity could be found (e.g. Chamaepinnularia schauppiana, Cymbopleura incertiformis var. linearis, C. subapiculata, Eunotia lapponica, Microfissurata paludosa). On average, 17 taxa per site were found. The highest number (26) was found in a sediment sample taken in a site with special hydrochemical characteristics, and the minimum (11 taxa) in the sediment sample of the demolition materials dump mire. Diatom communities allowed characterising the mire pools studied as oligotrophic, acidic environments often affected by desiccation. On the basis of the autecology and distribution of the most frequent and abundant taxa, pH and hydroperiod appeared to be the most relevant environmental determinants. A striking result, also in view of eventual management consequences, was the very high proportion (72%) of rare and Red List taxa (including also species of the categories ""Threatened with extinction"", ""Severely endangered"", and ""Endangered""). To preserve diatom biodiversity, these mires must be sheltered from uses other than recreational ones, and abrupt changes in hydrological regime and increases in nutrient input must be prevented.",,475-507,,03-Apr,93,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000297401100014,,,,,,,ACIDIFICATION; ALGAE; ATLANTIC COASTAL-PLAIN; diatoms; EPIPHYTIC DIATOMS; epiphyton; mires; MOORLAND POOLS; PEAT; pools; Red List taxa; SPECIES COMPOSITION; SPHAGNUM BOGS; SPRING FENS; surface sediment; taxa richness; TERRESTRIAL HABITATS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Little is known about the threatened South American red belly toad, Melanophryniscus macrogranulosus, endemic from northeastern Rio Grande do Sul, southern Brazil. The main goal of this article is to provide information on natural history, geographic distribution, morphology and conservation of this toad, including new geographic records, and new data on color pattern, habitat use, and reproductive and defensive behavior. We conducted 30 field expeditions from 2005 to 2013 to the type locality and surroundings and examined the three major herpetological collections from Rio Grande do Sul. We described the live color pattern of juveniles and adults. The data on reproductive and defensive behavior was obtained in the field. We rediscovered the species on its type locality, after 45 years from previous records, and revealed the presence of M. macrogranulosus in five new localities. The color pattern varies ontogenetically from metamorphosed juveniles to adults. Newly metamorphosed individuals have dark gray dorsum and pale, partially translucent ventral surface. Adults have dorsum from light to dark green and ventral surface exhibiting a green or grayish blue coloration pattern with white spots and red patches. Associated with this suspected aposematic coloration we observed individuals employing unken reflex when disturbed. Reproductive activity was recorded after heavy rains in all four seasons. Males call during day and night, in small, shallow pools along temporary streams with clear water. Amplexus and struggles between males also involving a female were registered inside the water in the reproductive site. All records of M. macrogranulosus are inside the limits of the Atlantic forest, considered one of the most endangered Biome of Brazil. However, none is inside the limits of a protected area. Some possible threats observed include fragmentation and habitat destruction, pollution (improper discard of human waste) and the recent duplication of a paved road near the reproductive site. These impacts associated with the small extent of occurrence, justify the species category as Endangered (EN). © 2014, Societas Europaea Herpetologica. Engineering.

To this end, the research focuses on two of the ecosystems, where this type of tourism exerts pressure on a global scale: seagrass meadows and coral reefs. Based on Scopus and WoS databases, different levels of analysis have been carried through the application of bibliometrics to identify the most prevalent topics and future research trends. Results: The main results are summarised as follows. On the one hand, many publications in the scientific sector analyse how tourism and recreational activity affect specific marine ecosystems, especially coral reefs. On the other hand, the phenomenon of Global Change and the social and environmental effects on marine ecosystems with significant tourism potential have been identified as one of the most studied research topics. Finally, emerging research trends have been identified, including environmental monitoring and tracking programs aimed at controlling tourism, aspects related to the participation of the population and local tourism sectors, and the role of ecotourism in marine protected areas. Conclusions: In conclusion, a greater commitment from the public administration and a greater social awareness of the ecosystem services it generates is needed. If the species and the natural environment are not conserved and protected, the tourist attractiveness of these areas would be lost and, ultimately, the tourism of the area would change, with the consequent loss of well-being for the whole community. © 2022, The Author(s).",,,,1,34,,Env.

As part of oceanographic cruises, using ROVs and towed cameras, and trawl and longline surveys as well as records from fishermen, a belt of CWC communities has been identified along the Apulian continental margin (Central Mediterranean). The most investigated CWC communities are those of the Santa Maria di Leuca (SML) CWC province (northern Ionian Sea) and Bari Canyon (BC) (southern Adriatic Sea). These communities are mainly structured by the habitat-former species Madrepora oculata and, to a lesser extent, by Lophelia pertusa together with Dendrophyllia cornigera, solitary species, such as Desmophyllum dianthus, black coral, such as Leiopathes glaberrima, sponges (e.g., Pachastrella monilifera, Poecillastra compressa), serpulids, boring clams and colonies of bryozoans. CWC sites are biodiversity hot-spots, that act as “Essential Fish Habitats” for commercial species and through the spill-over effect might contribute to the renewal of stocks in neighbouring fishing grounds, providing ecosystems’ goods and services. Despite their particular features, CWC areas along the Apulian slope are impacted by different anthropogenic activities. Fishermen operate close and around these areas with the aim of obtaining greater catches and sizes of commercial species. Although there are many conservation proposals for CWC habitats and a Fisheries Restricted Area established for Santa Maria di Leuca CWC province, human pressure is still very strong, due to the lack of adequate conservation measures. An effective system of monitoring, control and surveillance will be fundamental to meet the conservation objectives and to reach the Good Environmental Status as part of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive. © 2018, Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei.",,589-597,,3,29,,Rendiconti Lincei,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer-Verlag Italia s.r.l.,,,,Anthropogenic activity; ASSEMBLAGES; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; CANYON; Central Mediterranean; Conservation measures; Conservation perspectives; CWC communities; ECOSYSTEM-BASED MANAGEMENT; Ecosystems; Essential fish habitat; FAUNA; Fisheries; Fishery resources; Good environmental status; HABITAT; LOPHELIA-PERTUSA; Marine strategy framework directives; Megafauna; Megafauna diversity; Natural resources management; NETWORK; REEFS; SEA,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We first collected, homogenised and drew physical thematic maps, which were then linked to biological and human features. We then performed a gap analysis of land heterogeneity compared with Natural Protected Areas and Natura2000 network on the basis of three categories: Total gaps, Partial gaps, and Protected. Moreover, we assessed the conservation status of the land units by summarising the environmental quality using the Index of Landscape Conservation. We identified and mapped 3 Land Regions, 24 Land Systems, and 149 Land Facets. Total gaps account for 28% of the country, Partial gaps for 38% and Protected for 34%. The Natura2000 network is more representative than the system of National Protected Areas of the overall land heterogeneity as regards both the types (18 out of 24) and extent (72%) of the Land Systems. Low conservation status prevails in the Land Facets of the Mediterranean Region located along the coasts and plains on sedimentary deposits, whereas high and very high conservation status is found along the higher belts of the Alpine and Apennine chains.

Initiatives for ecosystem preservation, such as to designate protected areas, may not be enough to avoid contamination by OCPs, considering that protected areas tend to be permeable to diffuse sources. Here, we investigate multi-level responses of the oyster Crassostrea virginica to OCPs in Laguna de Términos, a RAMSAR coastal lagoon in the southern Gulf of Mexico. For this aim, OCPs occurrence and concentrations in the water, sediment, and in oysters from 3 settlement banks were assessed. Enzymatic and non-enzymatic biochemical biomarkers were quantified in the oysters’ mantle and digestive gland, and the human health risk due to oyster consumption was also evaluated. OCPs in water were below detection limits. Fourteen OCPs were detected in sediments (?OCPs mean of 49 ngg?1) and 7 in oyster tissues (?OCPs mean of 121 ngg?1). The occurrence of OCPs was related to the land uses along the watersheds of the rivers that drain into the lagoon. Biochemical responses were correlated with OCPs (?HCH, ?DDT, heptachlor and endosulfan) in sediment, and oyster tissues. OCPs in oyster tissues showed a strong association with pro-oxidant forces and oxidative stress responses (Superoxide dismutase, Catalase, Glutathione Peroxidase, and lipid peroxidation), and neurotoxicity (Acetylcholinesterase), suggesting that the current OCPs contamination exerts significant stress. Our study also shows that the consumption of oysters from the lagoon increases the potential human health risk. Considering that Laguna de Términos is a protected Ramsar site, we suggest that environmental protection measures should be increased and that a monitoring program for OCPs exposure is necessary to assess the effects on this ecosystem. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,320,,Chemosphere,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,"acetylcholinesterase; Acetylcholinesterase; agricultural land; alkadiene; animal; animal experiment; animal tissue; Animals; Article; Atlantic Ocean; biochemical analysis; biochemistry; biomarker; Biomarkers; bivalve; Calabarzon; catalase; chlorinated hydrocarbon; chlorphenotane; clinical evaluation; coastal lagoon; Coastal lagoons; coastal waters; concentration (composition); concentration process; controlled study; Crassostrea; Crassostrea virginica; dieldrin; Disease control; dissolved oxygen; ecosystem; Ecosystem; Ecosystems; Effect and exposure biomarker; Effect and exposure biomarkers; endosulfan; environmental monitoring; Environmental Monitoring; environmental protection; enzyme activity; exocrine gland; Exposure biomarkers; food intake; glutathione peroxidase; glutathione transferase; Gulf of Mexico; health hazard; health risk assessment; Health risks; heptachlor; Histology; human; Human health risks; Humans; Hydrocarbons, Chlorinated; Iran; lagoon; Laguna [Calabarzon]; Laguna de Términos; Lagunum de término; Lakes; land use; Land use; Latin America; limit of detection; lindane; lipid peroxidation; long term exposure; Mazandaran; Mexico; Molluscs; Multilevels; neurotoxicity; nonhuman; organochlorine; organochlorine pesticide; Organochlorine pesticides; oxidative stress; Oyster tissue; persistent organic pollutant; pesticide; Pesticides; Philippines; physiology; Protected areas; river; Sakht Sar; sediment; Sediments; Shellfish; superoxide dismutase; Superoxide dismutase; surface water; Tissue; toxicity; water; Water; water pollutant; Water Pollutants, Chemical; watershed",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Recent initiatives have promoted broadening the focus from biodiversity conservation alone to the conservation of both ecosystem services and biodiversity, indicating that this integration should improve support and compliance from stakeholders. Using a Multiple-Use Coastal Marine Protected Area recently proposed in northern Chile, we investigated (i) stakeholders' perceptions of the valuation of ecosystem services, threats to their provision, and the prioritization of ecosystem services, biodiversity features, and uses in a planning scenario, and (ii) stakeholders' expectations for the establishment of a new MPA. The perceptions of different groups of stakeholders were compared and statistically analyzed, and the relationships among prioritizations were studied using a network approach. Stakeholders identified and valued 13 ecosystem services, 28 biodiversity features, 20 uses and activities, and 22 threats. Significant differences among the valuations and prioritizations of different stakeholder groups were attributable principally to artisanal fishermen's perceptions of some components that are directly related to their activities and livelihoods. High expectations of benefits from a new MPA implementation were observed for all categories of stakeholders. To relate the different valuated components, we proposed a network-based conceptual model that reduces complexity, and also as a strategy to communicate relationships and trade-offs occurring in this particular social-ecological system to the several stakeholders. We strongly recommend early stakeholder engagement so as to understand the variability in environmental perceptions and then reflect that variation in the planning and management actions of MPAs, thus improving support for their implementation and achieving conservation and societal goals. Our findings indicate that stakeholders' perceptions and prioritizations of ecosystem services, biodiversity features and uses should be used as the basis for starting the MPA implementation and planning process. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,116-131,,,40,,Environ.

This article examines Islas Choros-Damas Marine Reserve, a small marine protected area located in a highly productive and biologically diverse coastal marine ecosystem in northern Chile, and the interactions between human, institutional, and ecological dimensions beyond those existing within its boundaries. Through documents analysis, surveys, and interviews, we described marine reserve implementation (governing system) and the social and natural ecosystem-to-be-governed. We analyzed the interactions and the connections between the marine reserve and other spatially explicit conservation and/or management measures existing in the area and influencing management outcomes and governance. A top-down approach with poor stakeholder involvement characterized the implementation process. The marine reserve is highly connected with other spatially explicit measures and with a wider social-ecological system through various ecological processes and socio-economic interactions. Current institutional interactions with positive effects on the management and governance are scarce, although several potential interactions may be developed. For the study area, any management action must recognize interferences from outside conditions and consider some of them (e.g., ecotourism management) as cross-cutting actions for the entire social-ecological system. We consider that institutional interactions and the development of social networks are opportunities to any collective effort aiming to improve governance of Islas Choros-Damas marine reserve. Communication of connections and interactions between marine protected areas and the wider social-ecological system (as described in this study) is proposed as a strategy to improve stakeholder participation in Chilean marine protected areas. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media New York.",,1355-1368,,6,52,,Environ.

We investigated the structure and properties of inter-organizational social networks involved in the use and management of natural resources in a coastal marine ecosystem in northern Chile proposed as a possible marine protected area. We explored two network configurations: i) relations of collaboration and ii) relations of transfer and exchange of scientific knowledge and information useful to the management of natural resources and the decision-making process involved. Both networks showed little cohesion, with low values of centralization and density indicating a low flow of collaborative and exchange relations among different stakeholders. The knowledge network achieved greater levels of centralization than the collaboration network. National government agencies and fishermen organizations were the most powerful stakeholders in the collaboration network. National government agencies and universities were the most powerful stakeholders in the knowledge network. We found a disconnected network when analyzing the flows of collaboration and knowledge between different administrative operation levels that potentially would hamper the governance of this area. On the other hand, we identified stakeholders that would help to connect the network (bridging stakeholders). Additional analysis of stakeholders using influence-capacity matrix allowed us to identify key stakeholders for planning and implementing the new marine protected area, compare results with the network analysis, and propose network interventions. We propose combining Social Network Analysis with other methods of stakeholder analysis to produce more practical and implementable results. Our results are relevant for future interventions aimed at improving or implementing management and governance of coastal areas. (c) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

Furthermore, populations growing far from the species’ optimal climate might be less viable because good-quality habitat can be scarce and easily altered by smaller changes. The lichen Pectenia plumbea has oceanic climatic requirements, so in the Mediterranean region it needs the humidity provided by well-preserved forests to thrive, but most of this habitat has disappeared and the remnants are fragmented. In central Spain, this species occupies only a small proportion of the existing forests, so we aimed to determine whether this scattered distribution is due to limitations on dispersal or establishment. METHODS: We selected a Mediterranean fragmented forest surface in central Spain and extracted environmental variables from 371 plots. We modeled the presence and abundance of P. plumbea and developed species distribution models (SDMs) to detect all the suitable habitats inside the Cabańeros National Park area. KEY RESULTS: Pectenia plumbea was present in most of the habitats predicted as good-quality and was generally absent from the poor-quality zones (85.9% overall success). The abundance correlated fairly well with that predicted by the SDM (67%). Both models show that P. plumbea is linked to high temperature and precipitation. CONCLUSIONS: Good-quality habitat requirements for P. plumbea that are similar to oceanic conditions are found only in specific forested, stony slopes derived from historical land management. This habitat is scarce, but P. plumbea has successfully tracked all of these scattered areas via its high dispersal capacity. © 2017 Botanical Society of America.",,527-537,,4,104,,Am. J.

Here we evaluate one of the pioneering restoration programs in the southern Brazilian Atlantic Forest, where the combination of conservation and restoration efforts has been carried out for 20 years. Specifically, we tested how landscape characteristics, restoration strategies and environmental characteristics affect the results of the restoration of pastures. We established 65 circular plots (total 4.0 ha) along restoration areas (3–10 years) and sampled trees and shrubs composing the canopy (DBH ? 5 cm) and understorey (DBH < 5 cm, height > 1.3 m). We analysed the landscape metrics (proportion of old-growth forests in 200, 500 and 1,000 m buffers around each plot; and area and distance of the nearest-neighbouring old-growth forests). We explored the multiple effects of landscape, restoration strategy (reforestation, natural regeneration) and environmental variables (soil, pasture grass types) on the species composition and multiple diversity metrics of restoration areas. The species composition was very similar among restoration ages and restoration strategies. We found positive and strong effects of old-growth forest (200 m buffer) proportion on the species richness and Shannon diversity (canopy and understorey), above-ground biomass (canopy) and functional diversity (understorey) of restoration areas. The restoration strategies affected forest structure, and, in general, the reforestation strategy increased above-ground biomass, Shannon, functional and phylogenetic diversities (in canopy), and percentage of endemic species and biomass (understorey), when compared to natural regeneration. The 20-year experience in the southern Atlantic Forest showed that programs focused on landscape conservation associated with a mixture of restoration strategies (i.e. natural regeneration in larger areas and active restoration in more disturbed sites), can be an efficient strategy to ensure biodiversity and ecosystem services in tropical landscapes. Synthesis and applications. To manage degraded tropical lands and achieve global targets for biodiversity and ecosystem services, it is necessary to first ensure the conservation of natural remnants and then use multiple restoration strategies in less resilient areas. © 2022 The Authors.

In Brazil, the Pantanal is considered an important refuge for the species, and protected areas such as the Taiamă Ecological Station (TES) are relevant for conservation of pristine ecosystem where the species persist. Thus, considering that this area is located in one of the regions with the highest concentration of this large cat in the Pantanal, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the protection given by the TES for the jaguar population. The station is a flooded island in the middle of the Paraguay river and surrounded by extensive wetlands. We monitored ten jaguars using GPS collar at the TES and its surroundings. The samples were separated into high-water season (January to June) and low-water season (July to December), and the estimated home ranges were grouped as: 1) residents only and 2) all monitored individuals. The stabilization of the home ranges of eight jaguars, considered residents, was determined through variograms. When all jaguars were analysed together there was 55% overlap between the clustered areas of the two analysed seasons. In the analysis excluding non-resident individuals there was 72% overlap between the clustered areas. The type of land cover inside these areas was very similar between these periods. The range of this protected area is not sufficient to effectively protect these jaguar populations, since the grouped home ranges of the resident animals studied are 3.5(wet)/2.5(dry) times larger than the area of the TES. However, the surroundings of the TES have low human impact and no deforestation and, in this way, the landscape context of the station may have a significant effect on the persistence of a large carnivore like the jaguar. However, it is necessary to create more protected areas in order to prevent possible future environmental changes in the areas surrounding TES. © 2020, UNIV SAOPAULO.

Nevertheless, like many other coastal activities, if in excess, it may harm coastal ecosystems and their sustainable use. This paper focuses on the seascape and landscape characteristics that are most associated with the existence of dive sites, aiming to identify other suitable locations along the coast to potentially reduce environmental pressure (e.g., overcrowding and physical damage) on the existing dive sites. Logistic regressions were employed to model the suitability for dive sites existence in the Portuguese south coast (Algarve), one of the most popular Summer destinations in mainland Europe. Results suggest that closeness to waterlines and piers and the presence of rock structures in the coastal strip are the most important attributes that positively influence dive sites’ existence, whereas the beach environment and the presence of muddy sediments are negatively associated with it. In this study, we suggest the application of a logistic model to find alternatives for the explored dive sites as a quick and easily applied coastal management tool. Moreover, we find it useful for the implementation of coastal conservation strategies extended to other coastal activities. © 2020 The Authors",,,,,123,,Mar.

Achieving and prioritizing shortlists of multidisciplinary indicators demands a significant effort from specialists to depict the multiple conservation and socioeconomic interests, and the large complexity of natural systems. The present paper describes a structured expert-based methodology (process and outputs) to co-define a list of multidisciplinary MPA performance indicators. This work was promoted by the management authority of coastal MPAs in mainland Portugal to gather a consensual and feasible list of indicators that would guide the design of a future national monitoring program. Hence, Portuguese coastal MPAs served as a case study to develop such a process between 2019 and 2020. In the end, participants (1) agreed on a shortlist of prioritized indicators (i.e., environmental, governance, and socioeconomic indicators) and (2) defined minimum monitoring frequencies for the indicators in this list, compatible with the potential replicability of the associated survey methods. The present approach recommends that management plans incorporate monitoring procedures and survey methods, with a validated list of indicators and associated monitoring periodicity, agreed among researchers, MPA managers and governance experts. The proposed methodology, and the lessons learned from it, can support future processes aiming to define and prioritize MPA performance indicators.

This continued erosion of the southern beach has put some of the Island's key infrastructure at risk, including the ecotourism, scientific research and environmental offices and facilities. Several management options were presented ranging from the 'do-nothing' case to structural solutions. A preliminary risk and cost assessment was completed for each of the options, and the results of this assessment were presented to a group of key stakeholders, including representatives from government, academic, environmental and volunteer groups. The feedback from stakeholders showed little support for either offshore structures or relocation of the buildings; rather, the consensus from the stakeholders was either beach nourishment or nourishment with a buried revetment wall.

This sensitivity indicates an ecosystem vulnerability that threatens not only nature but also human health due to bioaccumulation. An important source of elevated Cu concentrations in coastal environments are biocides used as antifouling protection on ships. A pilot study conducted in the Marine Protected Area (MPA) of the Krka Estuary (Croatia) over a period of 16 months investigated the relationship between ship traffic and Cu concentrations. The aim was to contribute to more informed environmental management by assessing the associated risks. In the study presented here, Cu concentrations were monitored, analyzed, and correlated with vessel traffic. Observations revealed that the seasonal increase in maritime traffic caused by nautical tourism was associated with an increase in Cu concentrations of more than five times, posing a toxicity risk to the environment. In order to understand the distribution of copper emissions, a mapping of maritime traffic was carried out by counting transits, radar imagery, and drone photography. This approach has proven sufficient to identify the potential risks to the marine environment and human health, thus providing an effective assessment tool for marine stakeholders. © 2021 by the authors.

Since the logical focus for management is the ecosystem, most consideration should be given to the level of the land-seascape. The over-riding operational objective is to preserve biological diversity via networked systems of MACPAs. New concepts of dynamic biogeography have emerged to provide a sound basis for choice of MACPACs, as well as for conservation, research, resource monitoring, and networking. Due to the nature of ecological structures, the approach must relate down-scale to local problems, as well as up-scale to global ones. Consequently, the basic concept for predicting biodiversity patterns requires that the responses of assemblages of organisms to the environment at different scales and the modifications organisms make to the environment be made explicit. This approach requires that coastal-marine biodiversity be considered primarily as mosaics of habitats and/or ecosystems, or what may be termed 'land-seascapes'.",,143-144,,,,,,,,,,,ASCE,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Coastal Zone,,,,Biogeography; Coastal engineering; Coastal marine biodiversity; Ecology; Ecosystems; Land seascape; Management; Marine and coastal protected areas; Marine biology; Marine ecosystems; Shore protection; Watersheds,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Coastal Zone: Proceedings of the Symposium on Coastal and Ocean Management,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, there remains much debate about how effective MPAs are, especially in terms of their ability to protect mobile marine species such as teleost and chondrichthyan fishes. We used satellite and acoustic tags to assess the ability of a large oceanic MPA, the British Indian Ocean Territory MPA (BIOT MPA), to protect seven species of pelagic and reef-associated teleost and chondrichthyan fishes. We satellite-tagged 26 animals from six species (Blue Marlin, Reef Mantas, Sailfish, Silky Sharks, Silvertip Sharks, and Yellowfin Tuna), producing 2,735 days of movement data. We also acoustically tagged 121 sharks from two species (Grey Reef and Silvertip Sharks), which were monitored for up to 40 months across a large acoustic receiver array spanning the MPA. We found that the activity spaces of all satellite-tagged animals, including pelagic species, were much smaller than the area of the BIOT MPA, even taking into account errors associated with position estimates. Estimates of space use of acoustically tagged sharks, based on dynamic Brownian Bridge Movement Models (dBBMM), were also much smaller than the size of the MPA. However, we found important limitations when using dBBMM and demonstrate its sensitivity to both study duration and array design. We found that Grey Reef Sharks should be monitored for at least 1 year and Silvertip Sharks for 2 years before their activity space can be effectively estimated. We also demonstrate the potentially important role that intraspecific variability in spatial ecology may play in influencing the ability of MPAs to effectively protect populations of mobile species. Overall, our results suggest that, with effective enforcement, MPAs on the scale of the BIOT MPA potentially offer protection to a variety of pelagic and reef species with a range of spatial ecologies. We suggest that animals need to be tagged across seasons, years, and ontogenetic stages, in order to fully characterize their spatial ecology, which is fundamental to developing and implementing effective MPAs to conserve the full life history of target species. © 2019 Carlisle, Tickler, Dale, Ferretti, Curnick, Chapple, Schallert, Castleton and Block.",,,,May,6,,Front.

It is arguable that more information on the precise etiology of caries and on potential new preventive methods has been acquired during the 1970s than in any comparable period previously. Substantial advances have been made toward the understanding of the complex interaction among oral microorganisms, host resistance, and dietary substrate in the initiation and progression of a caries lesion. The various mechanisms of action of the fluoride ion have been further elucidated; vaccination against caries and a reduction in the cariogenic potential of sweet foods have both become realistic possibilities. Conspicuous successes have also been achieved in the application of existing knowledge. At least 12 million more children than in 1971 are receiving partial protection against caries through self-applied fluoride programs. Other effective preventive methods, including adhesive sealants and, possibly, antimicrobial agents, could be widely and advantageously utilized if manpower and regulatory constraints were overcome, as their scientific feasibility has, for the most part, already been demonstrated. Of course, it would be naive to predict the early disappearance of dental caries as a major health problem. This will occur only gradually, and will require a much more extensive use of preventive methods--those already available as well as those still being developed by research.

Biological invasions increasingly threaten the ecological functioning and long-term conservation value of protected areas, while a lack of information on impact impedes management decisions. We collated data from effects of biological invasions in protected areas to provide the first quantitative analysis of their global impacts. Based on 300 reported effects from 44 invasive species, we show that there are overall negative impacts from invasive species on both biotic and abiotic characteristics of protected areas globally. Impacts were pervasive across population, community, and ecosystem scales, and for the vast majority of invasive taxa with sufficient data. Negative impacts have been incurred around the world, with National Parks and World Heritage Sites in the Neartic and Neotropical regions the most studied. Notwithstanding context-dependencies and uneven research efforts, the recurrent negative impacts of invasive species indicate that current efforts are insufficient to curb current stressors and meet conservation and sustainability targets on land and in water.

So far no information on C. taylorii response to multiple stressors, especially in terms of mucilage hyperproduction, is available in the literature yet, and a manipulative field experiment in this topic was designed in Tavolara Punta Coda Cavallo Marine Protected Area. The aim of the study was to test the effects of nutrient enrichment (addition of nutrients), mechanical disturbance (partial and total benthic organisms removal) and hydrodynamics (increased water turbulence) on C. taylorii cell density and mucilage abundance. To the purpose, the three above mentioned stressors were simulated and the three treatments were assigned to 20 × 20 cm plots following a full-factorial design (n = 3). Interactive effects of the three stressors affected significantly both benthic C. taylorii cell density and mucilage cover although differently. Mechanical disturbance and high hydrodynamics produced consistent effects on cell density and mucilage production (i.e. the former factor enhancing and the latter decreasing). Nutrient enrichment on the contrary led to contrasting effects, promoting cell abundance and inhibiting mucilage production. Therefore, important mucilage blooms are expected in oligotrophic sheltered coastal locations where barren areas are present. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,156-165,,,129,,Mar. Environ.

The data gathered represent an important contribution to the monitoring of these target species in Italy. The methods developed for monitoring of the target species are intended for use by the local management authorities and staff of protected areas. These developed methods are the result of extensive fieldwork and ensure scientific validity, ease of execution and limited labour costs. The detailed description of methods and the results for each species are published in separate articles of this special issue of Nature Conservation. A second objective of the project was to gather faunistic data with a Citizen Science approach, using the web and a mobile application software (app) specifically built for mobile devices. The validation of the records collected by the citizens was carried out by experts, based on photographs, which were obligatory for all records. Dissemination activities represented the principal way to contact and engage citizens for the data collection and also offered the possibility of providing information on topics such as Natura 2000, the Habitats Directive, the role of monitoring in nature conservation, the importance of forest ecosystems and the ecological role of the saproxylic insects. An innovative method tested during the project was the training of a dog for searching and monitoring the elusive hermit beetle; the trained dog also added a “curiosity” factor to attract public attention towards this rare insect and the issues mentioned above.

First, a survey and open-ended interview was completed with 42 fishers in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands (33% of the total number of currently registered commercial fishers on island) regarding general matters of fishery health and productivity, with heightened focus on the management of a mutton snapper (Lutjanus analis) spawning aggregation. The interview results suggest that fishers view management tools in terms of spatial and temporal parameters, and how much those regulations influence gear selection. Fishers respond primarily to socioeconomic pressures, but recognize and support ecological goals of regulations, particularly those that provide protections to important stocks throughout their spawning season. A Discrete Choice Model (DCM) was developed based on the results of the fisher surveys and was administered to 182 individuals, including 54 residents of St. Croix and all 42 fishers interviewed. Eight DCM options were presented to respondents who selected their regulatory preference in a pair-wise fashion. In seven of eight pairs, public respondents selected fisher-preferred, FEK-based regulatory frameworks. These results suggest FEK can be used to develop fishery regulations that will meet management goals, and be broadly supported by both members of the fishing community and the general public. In this manner, ecosystem-based management frameworks can be improved by incorporating fishers and their FEK, particularly for small-scale fisheries. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.",,40-53,,,67,,Mar.

The study area is San Clemente del Tuyú, at the marine littoral of the province of Buenos Aires, where the land use has generated significant modifications in the hydrological cycle. Three areas with different types of land use were defined, isophreatic maps were elaborated for the years 1976, 1987, 2006 and the groundwater volume for each survey was estimated. This information was integrated to a Geographic Information System (GIS). The obtained results show that there is a direct relationship between land use evolution and the amount of groundwater stored. The dune zone has reduced its areal distribution in detriment of urbanized areas, that behavior is related to the decrease of fresh water volumes stored in that area. In conclusion, the modifications in land use through the time are reflecting in the phreatic aquifer behavior. Recent detail studies demonstrate that the urbanization brings about the decrease of the water excesses infiltration possibilities, restricting the aquifer natural recharge areas and consequently, the available fresh water reserves. Therefore, for sustainable groundwater management it is necessary to develop a rational plan for land use by preservation of sectors without urbanization or establishing protected areas to facilitate the aquifer recharge.",,466-474,,4,66,,Rev.

Therefore, unraveling their patterns can contribute to a better assessment of local biodiversity dynamics. Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM) is a cost-effective, non-intrusive method providing long-term information regardless of weather or logistic conditions, which can be especially useful when monitoring remote areas. Using PAM, we assess temporal dynamics of fish vocal activity in a protected seamount and validate PAM as an important tool for biodiversity assessment in deep-sea fish communities. Thus, we evaluated the annual, seasonal and diel patterns of variation of putative fish sounds identified in an Azorean protected seamount, the Condor (ca.190 m depth). Here, 3 years (2008, 2010 and 2012) of acoustic data were collected and analysed for diversity and abundance of the most prevalent fish sounds. We compared abundance and diversity of fish sounds before and after the establishment of the marine protected area in 2010, to assess its initial protection effects. We also compared abundance and biodiversity measures (richness and Shannon diversity index) of acoustic data with fishing data from deep-water longline surveys, to verify if acoustic diversity and taxonomic diversity show a similar trend. Additionally, we estimated a likely distance range of fish sound sources from the acoustic data loggers for local background noise and typical fish sound levels. Estimated detection distance of different fish sounds, considering Condor background noise level and reported fish sound source levels, were typically larger than 10 m and could reach hundreds of meters in some species suggesting that this study potentially targeted sounds of the deep-sea fish fauna. Fish acoustic activity was prevalent at dusks and nights of all years, while no overall seasonal pattern was detected. However, one sound sequence (#1) was dominant in the autumns of all studied period. A decrease in abundance and richness of sounds was observed from 2008 to 2012 in line with the results of fishing surveys. Although unexpected, these consistent trends suggest that PAM provides a reliable representation of fish biodiversity dynamics. Taken together, this study shows that monitoring fish sounds with PAM is a valid and promising tool for fish biodiversity assessment in deep Azorean seamounts. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,164,,Deep-Sea Res.

The way we understand the requirements for each species and individual will be different according to the spatial scale of habitat being studied, therefore habitat selection must be analyzed at different spatial scales. In a wide scale (biogeographic) the establishments of a species are mainly influenced by types of climte, vegetation and altitude. At a local scale (i. e. in a 10 km2 patch) the variables that influence the presence of the species could be food availability, predation risk and competition. Knowing the spatial distribution of an organism at regional and biogeographic scales and the factors that influence them, will allow to propose conservation areas targeted for a species or population, since its geographic variation allows us to identify areas with higher value for ecological conservation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential distribution of Baird's tapir (Tapirus bairdii) in the Yucatan peninsula, México and determine the climatic variables that influence such distribution. Methods: We performed a species distribution modeling approach using a Maximum Entropy analysis (Maxent; Phillips et al. 2006) that use environmental variables to predict the potential distribution of an organism in a given geographic area given presence records. To obtain the tapir occurrence records a search was performed on academic and governmental information sources (Appendix I). Only data obtained in the Yucatan peninsula over the past 10 years were selected. For the model generation we used the bio-climatic variables obtained from WorldClim, which provides global climate layers with information derived from monthly values of temperature and precipitation. Results: According to the influence of climate variables, the tapirs in the Yucatan peninsula occur in places with high rainfall and when the temperatures are not high (Figure 3). The answer to these variables confirms the need for this mammal to inhabit areas where sufficient water is ensured for his maintenance. Additionally, potential distribution areas were identified where studies are required to confirm the presence of the species and the possibility to integrate them into conservation plans. Discussion and conclusions: The potential distribution model suggests areas where tapirs can be distributed but there are no presence records and where records are only for sightings, as is the central part of the state of Campeche, close to forests of the Biosphere Reserve of Sian Ka'an, and the coastal strip Majahual-Xcalak and around Lake Bacalar in the state of Quintana Roo. Studies on these sites are recommended to check for the presences of tapirs. The potential distribution model is a useful tool to propose conservation and management plans in areas that do not have any protection, and to know the climate variables suitable for the distribution of the species that may be applicable at the time of proposing biological corridors. It is also important to be aware of change in land use in areas where yet the tapir is distributed to carry out management plans and conservation of these areas.",,575-596,,3,6,,Therya,Distribución potencial del tapir Centroamericano en la península de Yucatán,,,,,,,Spanish,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Asociacion Mexicana de Mastozoologia,,,,Connectivity; Land change use; Natural protected area; Potential distribution,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This study focuses on the rural parish Manglaralto, a semi-arid area with a shortage of water, and without supply service by the public network. Still, it has a great demand for supply by the local and floating population (tourism). This has caused the coastal aquifer, which supplies the area’s water, to show signs of overexploitation, and its natural balance is compromised. The aim is to establish a geometric model of the aquifer through geological and geophysical analysis to set sustainable water-use guidelines. The methodology includes: (i) the processing of the current technical and hydrogeological information to know the aquifer’s data; (ii) geometric modeling of the aquifer through the correlation of technical information, using the GeoModeller software; (iii) proposals for the sustainable use of water in the framework of the United Nations’ Agenda 2030. The geometric model results reveal that the aquifer’s thickness varies from 4 m at the head of the river to 30 m at the sea’s mouth. The volume of water is estimated at 13.6 Hm3. The sustainable-use proposals ensure that more than half of the population receives the community company’s service. More than 40% of the territory is a protected area, and 64% of the population has sewerage service. This geometric model is a visual contribution that allows us to know the aquifer’s shape and establishes guidelines that help strengthen the water supply’s development and sustainability over time. © 2021 by the authors.

Due to the uniqueness of their geological characteristics, the valuations applied reflect “very high” and “high-medium” qualifications in the geosites. Their identification and valuation allowed for establishing protection, geo-education, and sustainable use strategies (geotourism). In addition, the study identified a research opportunity associated with the cultural value of geosites of volcanic environments within protected areas with singular ecological value. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.",,147-167,,1,12,,Int.

This study aims to set the foundations of a spatial conservation strategy by identifying the most important catchments for the conservation of freshwater biodiversity in Europe. Using data on 1296 species of fish, mollusc, odonate and aquatic plant, and the key biodiversity area criteria (species Red List status, range restriction and uniqueness of species assemblages), we identified a network of Critical Catchments for the conservation of freshwater biodiversity. Applying spatial prioritisation, we show how the prioritised network differs from the ideal case of protecting all Critical Catchments and how it changes when protected areas are included, and we also identify gaps between the prioritised network and existing protected areas. Critical Catchments (n = 8423) covered 45% of the area of Europe, with 766 qualifying (‘trigger’) species located primarily in southern Europe. The prioritised network, limited to 17% of the area of Europe, comprised 3492 catchments mostly in southern and eastern Europe and species targets were met for at least 96% of the trigger species. We found the majority of Critical Catchments to be inadequately covered by protected areas. However, our prioritised network presents a possible solution to augment protected areas to meet policy targets while also achieving good species coverage. Policy implications. While Critical Catchments cover almost half of Europe, priority catchments are mostly in southern and eastern Europe where the current level of protection is not sufficient. This study presents a foundation for a Europe-wide systematic conservation plan to ensure the persistence of freshwater biodiversity. Our study provides a powerful new tool for optimising investment on the conservation of freshwater biodiversity and for meeting targets set forth in international biodiversity policies, conventions and strategies.

Our objective was to identify key areas for conserving the phylogenetic diversity (PD) of threatened vascular plants in Italy, one of the most species-rich regions in the Mediterranean Basin. We used spatial data and the conservation status of 995 threatened vascular plants and applied a phylogenetically informed spatial planning to minimize conservation costs. We then determined the degree of overlap with existing protected areas and evaluated whether this PD-based prioritisation of areas provides adequate protection for threatened phylogenetically distinctive species (EDGE). The cost-effective procedure identified as priority for conservation 12% of the study territory, while achieving over 90% of conservation targets (total PD). We showed that priority areas and protected areas are moderately spatially mismatched. We also showed that not all top-EDGE species were met by the procedure applied, hence we conclude that the PD-based model indicated key areas for protection, but nevertheless additional attention is needed to protect top-EDGE species. This study represents one of the most comprehensive analyses, to date, for the conservation of the native flora in the Mediterranean, incorporating both spatial distribution and evolutionary relationships.

We mapped the spatial distribution of rafting events from 160 breeding individuals over 5 years, and investigated the relationship between foraging effort (trip duration and total distance travelled) and the presence/absence of rafting.Results On average, 74% of tracked birds engaged in rafting. Of the 381 foraging trips analysed, rafting was recorded on 237 (62%). Birds were more likely to raft on outbound (224 trips, 59%), than inbound journeys (38 trips, 10%). Presence/absence of rafting did not correlate significantly with foraging trip distance or duration nor with duration of nest attendance.

The study was conducted in the Galápagos Islands of Ecuador, and 407 valid questionnaires were collected on-site. The statistical techniques used were factor analysis and the non-hierarchical k-means clustering method. The results reveal four dimensions of the recreational experience in coastal and marine destinations focused on island marine protected areas: Ecological Observation, Experiential Learning, Experiential Reflection, and Sensory Experience. Additionally, three demand segments differentiated by recreational experiences were identified: The Estheticians, the Multi-Experience Recreationists, and the Hedonists. Among these groups, the Multi-Experience Recreationists segment was the most satisfied and exhibited higher levels of loyalty in insular protected marine areas.

This study aimed to create a market segmentation based on ecotourism motivations for protected areas on islands. Data were collected through a questionnaire given to 822 tourists on the Galapagos Islands, a province of Ecuador. The Galapagos Archipelago is located in the Pacific Ocean and has been declared a World Heritage Site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (2019). It is of volcanic origin surrounded by marine currents. It is made up of two protected areas: Galapagos National Park, which covers the land surface, and the Galapagos Marine Reserve, which protects the marine environment. The findings were later evaluated with a factor analysis and a K-means clustering method. The results showed that there are six motivational dimensions, labeled: self-development, interpersonal relationships and ego-defensive function, escape, building personal relationships, nature appreciation, and reward. Three groups of tourists were identified. The first, the reward and escape group, had high motivations related to nature, experiencing new things, exploring the unknown, fun, escaping the routine, and destressing. The second, multiple motives tourists, scored highly on all motivational variables. Finally, nature tourists had high motivation in aspects related to nature. These results offer a basis for tourism service providers to develop specific products adapted to various tourist motivations, to improve offers adapted to tourist expectations, to increase satisfaction and tourist return rate, and ultimately to benefit the economy of marine protected areas and national parks with higher employment and income.

As a result, adequate planning of urban growth aligned with sustainable dwelling practices is needed. This is relevant in regions with natural and heritage environmental values, which simultaneously have a tendency towards deterioration, spatial fragmentation (agricultural and natural) and socio-environmental segregation. The aim of this study was to identify the inconsistencies in land planning in the regulations that govern the land uses proposed in the regional planning instruments (IPTs in Spanish) (La Campana Satellite Intercommunal Regulation Plan (PRI-LC and PREMVAL)), and the sustainability criteria that guide the natural and heritage areas proposed in the La Campana-Peńuelas Biosphere Reserve (BR) zoning. By studying the PRI-LC and comparing it with the zoning model proposed for the La Campana-Peńuelas BR, the overlapping spaces between the urban expansion and protection areas were analyzed. The results show the existence of zones of potential territorial conflict (in areas of natural and agricultural value) in each BR zone (core, buffer and transition). There is no agreement between the IPTs that ensure the protection of areas of environmental value. The regulation presents numerous inconsistencies and discrepancies that are at odds with the sustainable development criteria, and with a protection entity like a BR, particularly in areas allocated for agricultural use. It is recommended that the citizen participation and awareness tools be updated, and the sustainability criteria be modified using those implemented in the Regional Planning Instruments for Biosphere Reserves. © 2019 Urbano.

The knowledge of the impacts on the ecological succession by this species allows the use of restoration strategies in invaded environments. This work aimed to evaluate the floristic composition, diversity, structure, density, basal area, height, and diameter of natural regeneration in three areas of the Atlantic Forest in the Serra do Espinhaço Biosphere Reserve in an area invaded by P. aquilinum after a fire. Three environments with different coverage intensities by P. aquilinum were studied, and the plants over 10 cm in height or 5 cm in canopy diameter were measured. The floristic composition and diversity were analyzed using indices presented by Chao, Fisher, Margalef, Pielou, Shannon-Weaver, and Simpson, and similarity was evaluated by the Jaccard index. Species density, basal area, height, and canopy diameter classes were also evaluated. The floristic composition, diversity, structure of natural regeneration, density, and basal area were higher in post-fire areas with a lower coverage by P. aquilinum. The topsoil coverage with plant litter and the possible effect of P. aquilinum allelopathy probably reduced the species richness and diversity. The proportion of plants from the lowest height and canopy diameter classes was higher under moderate coverage by P. aquilinum. The reduction in the floristic composition, diversity, number of species, and basal area in post-fire areas colonized by P. aquilinum is probably due to this species aggressiveness. The population of this plant is high, accumulating large quantities of plant litter as a physical barrier preventing light and propagules from reaching the soil, reducing the germination of the seed bank and, consequently, the natural regeneration. The floristic composition, diversity, structure of natural regeneration, density, and basal area were lower in areas with higher coverage by P. aquilinum. The proportion of plants in the most significant height and canopy diameter classes was higher with reduced coverage by P. aquilinum. The P. aquilinum reduced forest succession in areas after a fire.

We aimed to identify the species killed on a stretch of the GO-341 highway that is tangent to the ENP. We investigated if roadkills were influenced by seasonality, sugar cane harvest and by the activity pattern of the animals (diurnal/nocturnal). We also analyzed if roadkills were aggregated in space, where the roadkill hotspots were located, if they were influenced by seasonality, and if they were different for the most abundant species. The highway was monitored with a vehicle, in the morning, at a speed of 40 to 60 km/hour, daily, with two observers. We covered a total of 4,230 km during the 90-day monitoring period, which included dry and rainy seasons. We recorded 132 wild animals’ roadkills: 67 birds (51 %), 60 mammals (45 %) and 5 reptiles (4 %). We identified 22 vertebrate species, including 13 birds, six mammals and three reptiles. The roadkill rate was 0.03 animals/km/day. During the dry season, the blue-and-yellow macaw (Ara ararauna) had higher roadkill rates. The crab-eating fox (Cerdocyon thous) was the only species with higher roadkill rates during the sugarcane harvest.

Data on costs of conservation actions are inherently uncertain. For example, the cost of purchasing a property for addition to a protected-area network depends on the individual landholder's preferences, values, and aspirations, all of which vary in space and time, and the effect of this uncertainty on the conservation priority of a site is relatively untested. We investigated the sensitivity of the conservation priority of sites to uncertainty in cost estimates. We explored scenarios for expanding (four-fold) the protected-area network in Queensland, Australia to represent a range of vegetation types, species, and abiotic environments, while minimizing the cost of purchasing new properties. We estimated property costs for 17, 790 10 x 10 km sites with data on unimproved land values. We systematically changed property costs and noted how these changes affected conservation priority of a site. The sensitivity of the priority of a site to changes in cost data was largely dependent on a site's importance for meeting conservation targets. Sites that were essential or unimportant for meeting targets maintained high or low priorities, respectively, regardless of cost estimates. Sites of intermediate conservation priority were sensitive to property costs and represented the best option for efficiency gains, especially if they could be purchased at a lower price than anticipated. Thus, uncertainty in cost estimates did not impede the use of cost data in conservation planning, and information on the sensitivity of the conservation priority of a site to estimates of the price of land can be used to inform strategic conservation planning before the actual price of the land is known.",,1529-1537,,6,24,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000284172800012,,,,,,,adquisicion de tierras; analisis de sensibilidad; areas protegidas; BENEFITS; BIODIVERSITY; conservation decisions; cost uncertainty; decisiones de conservacion; DESIGN; incertidumbre de costos; land acquisition; LAND VALUES; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; MATTER; NATURE-RESERVES; NETWORKS; PRIORITIES; protected areas; reserve selection; seleccion de reservas; SELECTION; sensitivity analysis,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This paper analyses some institutionalization processes of artisanal mollusc fisheries, considering the role of co-management in two Brazilian and Italian protected areas (Resex Pirajubaé and Conero Regional Park). Within a theoretical framework aiming at moving beyond the dualism between nature and society, the methodology of multiple-case-study has been used to carry on research about mollusc artisanal fisheries co-management networks in their constitution and development. The paper analyses how these networks are organised in the two contexts and the relations social actors have been developing for a sustainable fishery as a possible way to influence and increase their capacity to address environmental crisis. In the artisanal mollusc fishery co-management experiences, fishers’ participation may favour institutional innovations and the co-management networks stability may be generated by the institutions legitimacy. Furthermore, the case studies offer complementary insights to better understand the linkage between artisanal fishery institutionalization processes, common natural resources co-management and value aggregation for traditional seafood. Artisanal mollusc fishery co-management experiences should be stimulated and investigated since they can help in diagnosing early climate and environmental changes in the oceans. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,291,,J.

The motivation for the problem comes from the need to monitor a network of roads leading to a protected area. In this paper, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is searching for a slower moving ground vehicle on a road network that has been out-fitted with unattended ground sensors (UGSs). The UGSs are communication constrained and can only relay observations of the ground vehicle when the UAV visits them. Furthermore, the UAV does not have on-board capability to detect and identify the evader and therefore must investigate the UGSs to learn the evader's location. This scenario leads the UAV's control actions to depend on partial information. A sufficient condition for guaranteed isolation of the intruder is provided along with the corresponding pursuit policy.

We evaluated changes in fish biomass on temperate rocky reefs over the decade following implementation of a network of MPAs in the northern Channel Islands, California. We found that the biomass of targeted (i.e. fished) species has increased consistently inside all MPAs in the network, with an effect of geography on the strength of the response. More interesting, biomass of targeted fish species also increased outside MPAs, although only 27% as rapidly as in the protected areas, indicating that redistribution of fishing effort has not severely affected unprotected populations. Whether the increase outside of MPAs is due to changes in fishing pressure, fisheries management actions, adult spillover, favorable environmental conditions, or a combination of all four remains unknown. We evaluated methods of controlling for biogeographic or environmental variation across networks of protected areas and found similar performance of models incorporating empirical sea surface temperature versus a simple geographic blocking term based on assemblage structure. The patterns observed are promising indicators of the success of this network, but more work is needed to understand how ecological and physical contexts affect MPA performance. © 2015, Nature Publishing Group.

Different approaches have been suggested for coping with species on the move in conservation. Here, we test the effectiveness of different MPA designs, including dynamic, network, and different directional orientations on protecting shifting species under climate change through ecosystem modeling in a theoretical ecosystem. Our findings suggest that dynamic MPAs may benefit some species (e.g., whiting and anchovy) and fishing fleets, and these benefits can inform the design or adaptation of MPAs worldwide. In addition, we find that it is important to design MPAs with specific goals and to account for the effects of released fishing pressure and species interactions in MPA design. © 2020 Public Library of Science.

However, often these MPA’s are no more than Paper Parks, with poor financial and human resources, thus lacking effectiveness. Moreover, they frequently trigger conflicts with local communities, by imposing restrictions to their activities with no alternative or compensations, causing serious governance inefficiencies. Thus, within the UN Oceans Decade, MPA’s must face simultaneously three of the challenges: Protect and restore ecosystems and biodiversity (Challenge 2); Develop a sustainable and equitable ocean economy (Challenge 4) and Change humanity’s relationship with the ocean (Challenge 10). To address those challenges, it becomes clear that management models of MPA’s had to find ways to value natural capital and, at the same time, involve local communities and stakeholders in the governance processes. The conservation of biodiversity has both direct and indirect economic benefits for many sectors of the economy, namely tourism, being ecotourism considered one of the segments particularly adequate to value natural capital. Ecotourism, defined as “environmentally responsible travel and visitation to relatively undisturbed natural areas”, to enjoy and appreciate nature, is often used to enhance the natural capital, while protecting and promoting protected areas. Several studies have been carried out about ecotourism in MPA’s all over the world, particularly in the 21st century. In this article, we analyzed several case studies focusing ecotourism in MPAs, to better understand the connection between the development of this industry, the development of sustainable blue economy, and the efforts for ocean conservation. From the analysis conducted, we conclude that ecotourism development and community participation are of paramount importance in achieving sustainable development in MPAs, although there is still room to new advances improving good marine governance.

The construction of the first list of threatened species in Bahia state started in 2013. This paper describes the evaluation of conservation status of mammals in Bahia and its main results. The list was built in three phases: (1) preparatory, (2) evaluation and (3) final (validation). One species was considered regionally extinct, 41 were included in categories of threat (‘Critically Endangered’, ‘Endangered’ or ‘Vulnerable’) and four were considered ‘Near Threatened’. Moreover, 51 species were classified as ‘Data Deficient’. Habitat loss and fragmentation, hunting and roadkill were listed as the main threats for mammals in Bahia state. Thirty three out of 45 threatened or ‘Near Threatened’ species were recorded in 21 strictly protected areas (PA), completely or partially located in Bahia, and 32 of the 45 species are included in National Action Plans (PAN). The list of threatened mammals of Bahia includes a high percentage of carnivores, aquatic mammals, primates and ungulates, following the pattern of red lists. The high number of ‘Data Deficient’ species and research effort concentration in relatively small regions along the state are alarming and suggest the absence of planning and insufficient resource destination for biodiversity description, resulting in a limited knowledge on mammal populations and geographic distributions. Bahia occupies a prominent position regarding the conservation of taxa whose distribution range is totally or mainly included in the state. Caatinga, Cerrado and Marine biomes lack of strict PA to represent their diversity of mammal species. The publication of the list of mammals threatened with extinction, efforts to create and effectively protect current PA, and further actions considered in PAN are complementary tools that should be fomented by the government and nongovernment institutions aiming at protecting the rich mammal diversity of Bahia. © 2017, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ).

Although most marine protected areas (MPAs) were originally established to protect less mobile organisms, protection of shark species from fishing and other impacts is possible if individuals exhibit high residency and site fidelity within the MPA boundaries. For this study, we used a fixed acoustic telemetry array to study the residency, habitat use, and interspecific space use among 4 shark species in Buck Island Reef National Monument (BIRNM), an MPA in St. Croix, US Virgin Islands. From June 2013 to May 2017, 11 nurse sharks Ginglymostoma cirratum, 6 lemon sharks Negaprion brevirostris, 13 Caribbean reef sharks Carcharhinus perezi, and 6 tiger sharks Galeocerdo cuvier were monitored in the array. Overall, residency was high for all species, with a mean residency index of 0.52 or higher for each species. Network analysis revealed complex inter- and intraspecific spatial associations among individuals. Community detection algorithms showed that G. cirratum and N. brevirostris frequently used the same areas in BIRNM, selecting for shallow sand and seagrass habitats near linear reefs, while G. cuvier and C. perezi had more individualized space use. C. perezi also exhibited ontogenetic shifts, developing individual territories and using deeper water with increasing body size.

The resulting maps of the major geoforms and CORINE habitats within the lacustrine area were overlain to determine any significant relationships, taking into account the elevation derived from Lidar data. Whereas the geoforms resulted to have a roughly concentric distribution, the habitats appeared to be spread across different areas, and flooding frequency seemed not to be a determining factor in their altitudinal distribution. The correspondence matrix for geoforms and habitats underlined the coincidence between presently active morphodynamic units, flooding/salinity, and habitats typical of saline environments. Geomorphological units associated with the presently active shoreline dynamics host the habitats more typically related to frequent flooding and high salinity levels. The delay between geomorphological dynamics and vegetation changes, together with the opportunistic character of vegetation, promote the coexistence of different geomorphological processes and a great variety of plant communities and habitats. As a major conclusion, the present study provides a method through which a standard procedure may be set up to further determine the interaction between geomorphological processes and vegetation distribution, very useful for understanding vegetation patterns and conservation biodiversity, and the planning and managing of Natura 2000 sites. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,726,,Sci.

It represents a source of food and employment and generates important incomes to fishers and, in some cases, export earnings for the countries. In the review, we define 2 key concepts: Small-scale fishery and co-management. We address the temporal extractive phases which Latin American shellfish resources have experienced, and the corresponding socio-economic and managerial scenarios. We include 3 study cases in which co-management and field experimentation have been used on different temporal and spatial scales: (a) the muricid gastropod (Concholepas concholepas) in Chile; (b) the yellow clam (Mesodesma mactroides) in Uruguay; and (c) the spiny lobster (Panulirus argus) in Mexico. We demonstrate that co-management constitutes an effective institutional arrangement by which fishers, scientists and managers interact to improve the quality of the regulatory process and may serve to sustain Latin American shellfisheries over time. The main factors supporting co-management are: (a) a comparatively reduced scale of fishing operations and well-defined boundaries for the management unit; (b) the allocation of institutionalized co-ownership authority to fishers; (c) the voluntary participation of the fishers in enforcing regulations; (d) the improvement of scientific information (including data from fishers) to consolidate the management schemes; (e) the incorporation of community traditions and idiosyncrasies; and (f) the allocation of territorial use rights for fisheries under a collaborative/voluntary community framework. Chile is identified as an example in which basic ecological and fishery concepts have been institutionalized through management practices and incorporated into the Law. Several factors have precluded shellfishery management success in most of the Latin American countries: (a) the social and political instability, (b) the underestimation of the role of fisheries science in management advice, (c) the inadequacy of data collection and information systems, (d) the poor implementation and enforcement of management practices and (e) the uncertainty in short-term economic issues. In the review, we also show that in Latin America, large-scale fishery experiments are starting to play an important role in the evaluation of alternative management policies on benthic shellfisheries, especially when accompanied by co-management approaches that explicitly involve the participation of fishers. Fisher exclusion experiments have demonstrated changes in unexploited benthic shellfish populations and in the structure and functioning of communities. The information has been used by scientists to approach system elasticity. Ecological and fishery related knowledge has been translated into novel co-managerial strategies. The sedentary nature of the shellfish species analyzed in this review allowed localized experiments with different levels of stock abundance and fishing intensity (e.g., marine reserves or maritime concessions versus open access areas). This includes the establishment of closed seasons as de facto management experiments, which proved useful in evaluating the capacity of passive restocking of depleted areas and for the quantification of population demographic features. The precise location of fishing grounds provided reliable area-specific estimates of population density and structure, catch, and fishing effort. This allowed the allocation of catch quotas in each fishing ground. We also discuss the reliability and applicability of spatially explicit management tools. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) and Territorial User Rights in Fisheries (TURFs) fulfilled objectives for management and conservation and served as experimentation tools. The examples provided in our review include a comparative synthesis of the relative usefulness of alternative spatially explicit management tools under a framework of management redundancy. The cross-linkage between fishery experimental management protocols and the active participation of fishers is suggested as the strategy to be followed to improve the sustainable management of small-scale shellfisheries in Latin America. Finally, we discuss the future needs, challenges and issues that need to be addressed to improve the management status of the small-scale shellfisheries in Latin America, and, in general, around the world.

The international experience in the establishment of Marine Parks and Preserves, aiming to conservation, preservation, research and fishery management is analyzed. It is stressed that in Chilean continental and insular territories there are not formally established National Marine Parks or Preserves, containing long term plans and objectives formulated within the context of the especial characteristics of marine ecosystems. The country does not possess a distinctive system of national marine preserves. The scientific results obtained (1982-1995) at the Preserve of the Marine Coastal Station, Las Cruces, Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, and their effects on the institutionalization of benthic resources Management and Exploitation Areas, MEA (Fishery and Aquaculture Law 1991) are discussed. The combined roles that Marine Parks and Preserves can play in connection with conservation, preservation, fishery management, education, research and recreation are highlighted. The urgent need to establish a Chilean Network of Marine Coastal Protected areas is stressed. The main elements contained in a working agenda leading towards such objective are detailed. For instance, the selection of coastal areas through preliminary macrogeographical and biogeographical approaches, the need to analyze coastal fragmentation problems, the study of the structure and dynamics of coastal communities; including natural re-stocking and over-spilling processes; and the need to undertake base line studies (monitoring schemes) previous to the establishment of protected coastal areas are singled out.

It was based on social research conducted in the Chamela-Cuixmala region, on the Pacific coast of Mexico. The analytical tools used in the study included stakeholder identification, environmental history and social perceptions. The two main social groups in the study were ejidatarios, who own most of the territory, and avecindados, who possess no land but have high population numbers. Through an interpretative methodological approach we documented the vision and meaning that rural people give to their natural and social worlds. The agricultural development model promoted by the Mexican government for decades was identified as the main driver of ecosystem transformation. Rural people, who arrived recently in the region, were proud of the pasture-lands that were transformed from tropical forests. Conservation policies implemented during the last two decades were viewed as impositions although people recognized the value of services provided by ecosystems. This case study has helped to unravel the main dimensions of the human system and how it relates to structures of signification. The social panorama unveiled can be used as an initial basis to promote further research on the social-ecological system of the Chamela-Cuixmala region and to develop future participatory management schemes. © 2005 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc.",,630-643,,6,8,,Ecosystems,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Chamela-Cuixmala Biosphere Reserve; Developing countries; dry forest; Ecosystem management; environmental history; Environmental history; Human systems; Jalisco; LTER; Mexico [North America]; nature-society relations; North America; perception; rural population; Social perceptions; Social-ecological systems; stakeholder; Stakeholders; Tropical deciduous forest; Western Hemisphere; World,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, the rate of loss has decreased in recent years due to enhanced conservation and nature regeneration. The dynamics of mangrove forests in Panama have not been monitored since the year 2000, despite a significant loss during the 1980s. The objectives of our study were to quantify changes in mangrove cover and identify the dominant drivers of change in Parita Bay, Panama. Temporal changes in mangrove cover and the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) were determined using the supervised classification method on Landsat satellite images from 1987 to 2019. We identified a 4.7% increase in the mangrove area of Parita Bay during the 32 years; the mangrove forests were also considered healthy as reflected by high NDVI values. However, the conversion of mangroves to other land cover types resulted in a 1.26% decline in mangrove cover from 1987 to 1998. Moreover, the area of aquaculture and saltpans almost doubled during this period. During the following two decades, the conversion of other land cover classes (water, other vegetation, and bare soil) increased the mangrove area by 6%, and the annual rate of increase was greater during the second decade (0.43% year?1). From 2009 to 2019, mangroves declined at an annual rate of 0.11% in protected areas and increased at an annual rate of 0.50% in unprotected areas. Despite the regeneration potential of mangrove forests, our study highlights the need to continually manage and protect mangrove forests in order to facilitate their expansion in Parita Bay. © 2021 The Author(s).

However, despite these efforts, several invasive species have been found on the island. Of these, published studies indicate that two plant species are invasive in beach and coastal dune vegetation, but information on their impact on native plant communities is lacking. This study aimed to analyze the impact that the invasive shrub, Scaevola taccada, has had on plant species composition, richness, diversity, and community structure of beach and coastal dune vegetation developing on the Island Cozumel. Our results suggest significant impacts on species composition: we observed 34% species turnover between invaded and non-invaded plots. Invaded plots also showed a decreased plant cover and changes in species dominance resulting in altered community structure. S. taccada has rarely been studied in Mexico, especially its invasiveness and impact on plant communities. Our results highlight the urgent need for programs to monitor and control the spread of this species throughout the coasts of the Island of Cozumel. Ultimately, the information reported here will be helpful to inform management actions regarding the need to control invasive species in this Biosphere Reserve. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,1511-1526,,5,24,,Biol.

In 2000, longlining was banned in the Galapagos Marine Reserve, Ecuador. Since then, local small-scale fishers have contested this decision. In contrast, longlining ban supporters argue that this regulation is fundamental for conserving ETP species, despite scientific and anecdotal evidence indicating that its effective implementation is unfeasible. We conducted an online survey to investigate Galapagos residents’ perceptions concerning longlining, its ecological impact, and diverse potential management strategies. Our findings revealed misconceptions about longline fishing, which highlight the need for improved public awareness and education regarding longline fishing practices, their impact on ETP species, and possible solutions to this complex social-ecological problem. Our study also highlights Galapagos residents’ openness to find a solution that addresses both fishers’ livelihoods and the conservation of ETP species. Galapagos residents are receptive to implementing evidence-based solutions, including testing new bycatch mitigation methods and more selective fishing gears, enhancing monitoring and enforcement, and creating market-based incentives that encourage progressive and adaptive improvements in fishing practices. To solve the Galapagos longline controversy, we recommend a holistic, adaptive, and evidence-based approach that encourages stakeholders to engage in open dialogue, fosters cross-sector collaboration, and promotes research, communication, and educational initiatives. By raising awareness through comprehensive, rigorous, and unbiased scientific information, this ecosystem-based management approach aims to ensure the sustainable development of the small-scale tuna fishery, while conserving the Galapagos’ invaluable and unique marine biodiversity.

This effort aimed to reconfigure management areas by expanding or redistributing no-take zones to protect Key Biodiversity Areas and ensure the conservation of at least 30% of terrestrial and marine ecosystems in the Galapagos. However, this process encountered significant challenges, notably the erosion of fishers' trust following the implementation of a ""Marine Sanctuary"". This top-down decision resulted in socio-political tension, compelling the Ecuadorian government to delay the implementation of the new marine zoning until there was conclusive scientific data on its socio-economic impact on local small-scale fishers’ livelihoods. This paper examines the achievements and shortcomings of the Galapagos zoning update process, highlighting the successful integration of scientific zoning criteria and the enhanced protection of critical biodiversity areas, together with the reduced support from fishers and legal disputes. To move forward, we recommended a bottom-up approach centered on rebuilding trust among the fishing community via innovative engagement strategies and the introduction of market incentives to promote sustainable practices. Assessing the long-term impact of no-take zones is essential for refining management approaches. Additionally, the application of cutting-edge technology within an adaptive co-management model is recommended to improve fisheries and ecological data gathering and analysis, facilitating proactive and well-informed management decisions. Our suggestions aim to reconcile conservation objectives with the needs and aspirations of the local communities in this iconic archipelago. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,163,,Mar.

An EBSM approach was adopted in the Galapagos Marine Reserve (GMR) at the end of the 1990s with the adoption of marine zoning. The latter was created under a co-management regime to reduce conflicts among users arising over incompatible demands for ocean space, to mitigate the impact of human activities on sensitive ecological areas, and to contribute to the sustainability of Galapagos fisheries. Unfortunately, the promise of an EBSM approach in the GMR has not been matched by effectiveness in practice, in achieving the established management objectives. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the shortcomings and lessons learned related to planning, implementation, monitoring, evaluation and adaptation of the GMR's marine zoning scheme, and to provide recommendations to better realize the potential value of the EBSM approach to co-managing the shellfisheries of the GMR.

However, few studies have assessed contamination/pollution, one of the top five biodiversity threats, within these areas. In fact, more than 100,000 molecules used in consumer goods are potentially affecting over 250,000 protected areas distributed worldwide. As a result, chemical appraisal within PAs require specific approaches to be feasible. Herein, an approach for assessment of contamination in marine protected areas (MPAs) spread over large continental and/or global areas was proposed and tested using, as a case study, the impact of tributyltin (TBT) within Latin America. This approach included area delimitation, bibliographic survey, construction of attribute tables, data insertion in a Geographic Information System, overlapping with worldwide shapefiles of PAs, identification of affected PAs and evaluation of impacts using the outcomes against specific environmental quality guidelines/directives. A total of 259 records of TBT occurrence and/or its biological effect within 53 marine protected areas (including biosphere reserves, Ramsar sites and National parks) were gathered. Among affected species, were recorded 18 gastropods exhibiting imposex. In addition, 6 bivalves, 1 crustacean, and 3 fish species presenting TBT residues in tissues were seen in MPAs from Brazil, Argentina, Ecuador, Peru, Chile and Venezuela. Since levels of TBT recorded in several studied MPAs were enough do induce deleterious biological responses over marine biota, it was clear that conservancy goals of some “protected” areas are under threat. Considering that only TBT exposure was appraised, and these areas are likely to be concomitantly exposed to other classes of contaminants, the actual scenario can be even more frightening. Although initially applied as a TBT case study, the present approach enables an overview for other chemicals within protected areas worldwide. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,278,,J. Environ.

This study aims to evaluate the degree of contamination of wild mussels along the entire Portuguese coastline, continually exposed in their habitat to different contaminants. For this purpose, approximately 1000 mussel specimens were sampled during one year in seven different locations, along the Portuguese coastline. Simultaneous quantification of five UV-filters and seven musks in mussels was achieved by a Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and Safe (QuEChERS) extraction procedure combined with dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) followed by gas chromatography with mass spectrometry (GC–MS) analysis. Ten out of the twelve target analytes were found in the analysed samples, highlighting the presence of AHTN (tonalide), EHS (2-ethylhexylsalicylate) and EHMC (2-ethylhexyl 4-methoxycinnamate) in all positive samples (93%). Overall, the results obtained indicate a widespread contamination of wild mussels along Portuguese coastline, all over the year. UV-filters were more frequently detected (90%) than musk fragrances (70%) and also quantified at higher levels, with average total concentrations reaching 1155.8 ng/g (dw) against 397.7 ng/g (dw) respectively. A high correlation was observed between the most densely populated and industrialized locations and the higher levels of musks and UV-filters found. In other hand, lower levels of PCPs were found in protected areas. As expected, an increase in UV-filters levels was observed after the summer, likely due to the intense period of recreational activities. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,110-118,,,138,,Mar. Environ.

Conservation measures were implemented since 2011. The present study aimed to estimate the fishing effort, catches, discards and seasonality of the small commercial fleet in the northern part of PNSACV. A total of 32 fishing vessels were selected and their activity was monitored between 2011 and 2013. Fortnight interviews were made to the captains of those vessels (n= 435) together with on board observations (n= 89). The data obtained allowed to estimate a total of 100 commercial fishing vessels operating in the study area. Longlines, bottom-traps and gill/trammel nets were the most frequent fishing gears used. Over the studied period, fishing effort was more intense in the warmer season, from April to September. It was estimated that the annual fish and shellfish catches in the study area reached about 564 t, including 465 t of sales and 99 t of discards. Main species caught were Octopus vulgaris (65%), Conger conger (12%), Argyrosomus regius (2%) and Diplodus sargus (1%). Main species discarded were O. vulgaris (45%) and C. conger (39%), mainly due to its small size. The present pioneer work will serve as a benchmark for future studies concerning the evolution of the PNSACV and phenomena reflecting the implementation of the MPAs.

To this aim we have conducted two experiments. The first was a quantitative study and tested the hypothesis that small invertebrates are more abundant at no-entry locations than at the location visited by tourists through time (before, during and after tourist season). The second was a manipulative experiment and tested the hypothesis that the abundance of small invertebrates is indirectly related to experimental trampling intensities. The effect due to tourist visitation was not highlighted on overall assemblages, suggesting that present seasonal tourist load at the MPA does not cause a significantly negative effect on the zoobenthic community studied. Although tourists exhibited trampling activity at the visited location, none of taxa examined showed a significant lower abundance during and strictly after the end of seasonal tourism peak in the visited location, rather than at control locations. However, results obtained with the second experiment suggested that the effects of different experimental trampling intensities on small invertebrates were variable among taxa. The experimental trampling caused immediate declines in the density of tanaids, nematodes, acari, bivalves, gammarids, echinoderms, isopods, and harpacticoids. For some of these taxa a recovery in abundance was observed within one month. This kind of data may offer important information to estimate the number of visitors compatible with the sensitivity of zoobenthic assemblages, and may substantially contribute to appropriate MPA management. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

The aim of this work was to determine the cause of a disease outbreak in eight captive nursehounds that died after 18 months of captivity. Gross necropsy observations were indicative of a presumptive diagnosis of hemorrhagic septicemia. Histological and molecular techniques were performed, to diagnose the etiological agents that could be involved in their mortality. Phylogenetic analysis indicated the presence of P. damselae, identified as subsp. damselae by PCR-duplex, and Photobacterium swingsii in the analyzed captive nursehound Scyliorhinus stellaris. © 2023 by the authors.",,,,3,8,,Fishes,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,bacterium; captive population; conservation planning; detection method; marine park; Mediterranean Sea; nursehound; pasteurellosis; Photobacterium; phylogenetics; Scyliorhinus stellaris; shark,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Council for Australian University Tourism and Hospitality Education (CAUTHE) Conference, Brisbane, Australia) for nature-based tourism management. The paper focuses on the planning stage of the 7Es model, which is comprised of the following seven interrelated elements. (1) Environment - management of the natural and physical environments as well as the human-nature interactions. (2) Economics - promoting financial profitability without destroying or depleting the natural capital and eroding the cultural values of the host community. (3) Enforcement - implementation, management and monitoring of plans, legislative and other regulatory measures, and voluntary codes of conduct. (4) Experience - enhancing tourist satisfaction, experience and knowledge provided by the attractions. (5) Engagement - actively involving the stakeholders including the local/host community in planning, decision-making and implementation. (6) Enquiry - conducting research through scientific enquiry on the technical and social implications of tourism on the conservation of natural and cultural heritage including environmental protection. (7) Education - improving understanding about the natural and cultural environments as well as visitor use and impacts. The 7Es model incorporates the cyclical and iterative nature of the planning process, which is regularly informed by field experience, trends in tourism practice, evolving knowledge about the physical and biological environments, monitoring and conservation. Ultimately, the model endeavours to achieve a balance between biodiversity conservation and economic development.

Despite the ecological and socio-economic importance of this rare occurrence in Mediterranean waters, there is a lack of scientific data and lack of information as to the potential impact of tourist activities on the presence and behaviour of this shark species. Using baited underwater videos, this study provides the first assessment of this shark aggregation, as well as a preliminary evaluation of the potential effects that boating and diving activities may have on sandbar sharks during two different periods within the tourism season (July and September 2019). Overall, 241 sandbar shark sightings (with up to five individuals together) were recorded in July, whereas there were only six sightings in September. The average MaxN was 1.18 hr?1 (±0.21 hr?1 SE) and 0.22 hr?1 (±0.10 hr?1 SE) individuals in July and September respectively. Higher frequentation levels of divers and boats significantly reduced the number of shark sightings at the aggregation site. This study emphasizes the need for further investigations on Mediterranean shark aggregations and the implementation of specific conservation measures, such as an increase of protection level in Lampione and better enforcement, aside from strategies that promote sustainable tourism, including restrictions on the number of boats and divers’ visits per day. In the meantime, a precautionary approach aimed at regulating the interactions between tourists and sharks should be implemented through the application of a self-regulatory code of conduct for divers when sharks aggregate around the island. © 2021 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,1420-1428,,6,31,,Aquatic Conserv.

However, a spatial conservation prioritization framework that integrates these key aspects, and can be generalized, is still missing. Moreover, assessing the robustness of prioritization frameworks to uncertainty in species responses to management is critical to avoid misallocation of limited resources. Yet, the impact of information uncertainty on prioritization of management effort remains unknown. We present an approach for prioritizing alternative levels of conservation management effort to multiple actions, based on the ecological responses of species to management. We estimated species responses through a structured email-based expert elicitation process, where we also captured the uncertainty in individual experts' assessments. We identified priority locations and associated level of management of effort of four actions to abate threats to freshwater-dependent fauna, using a northern Australia case study, and quantified sensitivity of the proposed solution to uncertainty in the answers of each individual expert. Achievement of conservation targets for freshwater-dependent fauna in the Daly River catchment would require 9.4 million AU$ per year, for a total of approximately 189 million AU$ investment over 20 years. We suggest that this could be best achieved through a mix of aerial shooting of buffalos and pigs, riparian fencing and chemical spraying of weeds, applied at varying levels of management effort in key areas of the catchment. Uncertainty in experts' estimation of species responses to threats causes 60% of the species to achieve 80% of their conservation targets, which was consistent across target levels. Synthesis and applications. Our prioritization approach facilitates the planning of conservation management at fine spatial scales and is applicable to terrestrial, freshwater and marine realms. Plan implementation may require policy instruments ranging from landowner stewardship agreements, market-based mechanisms and low-intensity land use management schemes, to regulation of commercial activities within portions of marine protected areas. However, assessing plan sensitivity to uncertainty in species response to management and finding ways of dealing with it in the prioritization rather than ignoring it, as often done, remains vital for effective achievement of conservation objectives. © 2018 The Authors.

Few studies have addressed the issue of sustainability of scuba diving tourism through the simultaneously investigation on the economic and socio-cultural aspects and its implications for tourism development. This study aims to examine the scuba diving tourism in three under-explored North African tourism destinations with high ecotourist potential. The authors present an exploratory picture of scuba diving tourist demand, divers' preferences, motivations for recreational diving experiences and their propensity towards conservation. Design/methodology/approach: The authors developed a case study research strategy collecting profile data on 123 divers. Furthermore, regression analysis was performed to investigate the divers' preferences, motivations and propensity towards conservation. Findings: The divers' limited number, the presence of mainly local seasonal tourists and a moderate propensity towards conservation influence the potential of the diving tourism segment to generate significant socioeconomic benefits for local sustainable development in these destinations. However, establishing a marine protected area (MPA) could foster the development of a long-term strategy for scuba diving tourism, improve conservation awareness and increase divers' satisfaction. Practical implications: Diverse profiles, preferences and motivations can provide tools to sustainably manage and preserve coastal and marine biodiversity, while also maximising the quality of the recreational experience. One of the most effective site-based strategies to orient the diving sector towards sustainability involves the design and strengthening of MPAs. Originality/value: The research provides an original contribution to the debate on sustainable tourism strategies by demonstrating how the study of economic and socio-cultural aspects of scuba diving could provide guidelines to orient the tourism development of marine and coastal areas towards the principles of sustainability (also through the establishment of MPAs). The findings present an overview of the sustainability of the scuba diving tourism segment by investigating the preferences, motivations and inclination towards conservation among tourists for whom the diving experience is not a core holiday activity. © 2023, Iacopo Cavallini, Daniela Marzo, Luisa Scaccia, Sara Scipioni and Federico Niccolini.",,Jan-26,,5,20,,EuroMed Journal of Business,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Emerald Publishing,,,,BEHAVIOR; CONSERVATION; Conservation propensity; DIVERS; Divers' profile; IMPACTS; INDUSTRY; KNOWLEDGE; MANAGEMENT; Marine protected areas; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; PERCEPTIONS; Regression analysis; Socio-economic factors; Sustainable development; WILLINGNESS-TO-PAY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We use preference data and psychometric measures characterizing the public's attitudes toward risk elicited through a stated preference survey and integrate them into alternative econometric valuation models to estimate willingness-to-pay (WTP) to restock and protect the threatened staghorn coral off the SE coast of Florida. The household WTP estimates for the restocking program, marine reserve and combined programs were $179.01, $96.60 and $275.61, respectively. Respondent WTP was strongly dependent on respondents' perception of the anthropogenic risks facing staghorn corals and coral reef ecosystems. Adjusting WTP for risk perception resulted in an average increase of 98% in perceived benefits from unadjusted WTP for the three hypothetical management programs examined. Factors found not to influence WTP include preference elicitation method, use of, and distance to, the resource in question.

Unsurprisingly, therefore, the use of marine protected areas (here defined widely to include fisheries closed areas and no-take marine reserves) in its management has generated considerable controversy-particularly with regards to the design of a regional ecologically coherent MPA network to meet international obligations.Drawing on three MPA processes currently occurring in the UK North Sea, we examine the real-world problems that make the designation of MPA networks challenging. The political problems include: disagreement among (and within) sectors over policy objectives and priorities, common access to fisheries resources at the EU level increasing the scale at which decisions have to be made and lack of an integrated strategy for implementing protected areas in the North Sea. The scientific problems include the patchy knowledge of benthic assemblages, limited knowledge of fishing gear-habitat interactions, and the increased risk of unforeseen externalities if human activity (predominantly fishing) is displaced from newly protected sites. Diverging stakeholder attitudes to these problems means that there is no consensus on what ecological coherence actually means.Ultimately, we caution against 'quick-fix' solutions that are based on advocacy and targets, as they create confusion and undermine trust in the planning process. We argue for a more pragmatic approach to marine protection that embraces the complexity of the social and political arena in which decisions are made. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,325-370,,,69,,,,,,,,Academic Press,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Adv.

No-take MPAs and MPA networks have been globally implemented in coastal seas, and their success has been significantly enhanced where science-based biophysical guidelines have informed their design. Increasingly, as human pressure on marine ecosystems is expanding further offshore, governments are establishing offshore MPAs—some very large—or MPA networks. Globally, there are growing calls from scientists, non-government organisations, and national governments to set global conservation targets upwards of 30%. Given that most of the ocean is found either in the high seas or offshore within national Exclusive Economic Zones, large offshore MPAs or networks of MPAs must be a major component of these global targets for ocean protection. However, without adequate design, these offshore MPAs risk being placed to minimise conflict with economic interests, rather than to maximise biodiversity protection. This paper describes detailed biophysical guidelines that managers can use to design effective networks of no-take MPAs in offshore environments. We conducted a systematic review of existing biophysical design guidelines for networks of MPAs in coastal seas, and found consistent elements relating to size, shape, connectivity, timeframes, and representation of biophysical features. However, few of the guidelines are tailored to offshore environments, and few of the large offshore MPAs currently in place were designed systematically. We discuss how the common inshore design guidelines should be revised to be responsive to the characteristics of offshore ecosystems, including giving consideration of issues of scale, data availability, and uncertainty. We propose 10 biophysical guidelines that can be used to systematically design offshore networks of MPAs which will also contribute to the global goal of at least 30% protection globally. Finally, we offer three priority guidelines that reflect the unique conservation needs of offshore ecosystems: emphasising the need for larger MPAs; maximising the inclusion of special features that are known and mapped; and representing minimum percentages of habitats, or, where mapped, bioregions. Ultimately, MPA guidelines need to be embedded within an adaptive management framework, and have the flexibility to respond to emerging knowledge and new challenges. © Copyright © 2021 Ceccarelli, Davey, Jones, Harris, Matoto, Raubani and Fernandes.",,,,,8,,Front.

However, few studies have examined the combined effects of multiple drivers, partitioned their impacts, or established threshold values that may trigger shifts in benthic cover. Inshore fringing reefs of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (GBRMP) occur in high-sediment, high-nutrient environments and are under increasing pressure from multiple acute and chronic stressors. Despite world-leading management, including networks of no-take marine reserves, relative declines in hard coral cover of 40–50% have occurred in recent years, with localized but persistent shifts from coral to macroalgal dominance on some reefs. Here we use boosted regression tree analyses to test the relative importance of multiple biophysical drivers on coral and macroalgal cover using a long-term (12–18 yr) data set collected from reefs at four island groups. Coral and macroalgal cover were negatively correlated at all island groups, and particularly when macroalgal cover was above 20%. Although reefs at each island group had different disturbance-and-recovery histories, degree heating weeks (DHW) and routine wave exposure consistently emerged as common drivers of coral and macroalgal cover. In addition, different combinations of sea-surface temperature, nutrient and turbidity parameters, exposure to high turbidity (primary) floodwater, depth, grazing fish density, farming damselfish density, and management zoning variously contributed to changes in coral and macroalgal cover at each island group. Clear threshold values were apparent for multiple drivers including wave exposure, depth, and degree heating weeks for coral cover, and depth, degree heating weeks, chlorophyll a, and cyclone exposure for macroalgal cover, however, all threshold values were variable among island groups. Our findings demonstrate that inshore coral reef communities are typically structured by broadscale climatic perturbations, superimposed upon unique sets of local-scale drivers. Although rapidly escalating climate change impacts are the largest threat to coral reefs of the GBRMP and globally, our findings suggest that proactive management actions that effectively reduce chronic stressors at local scales should contribute to improved reef resistance and recovery potential following acute climatic disturbances. © 2019 by the Ecological Society of America",,,,1,30,,Ecol.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are necessary to allow habitat recovery and fish stock replenishment. Through the United States Agency for International Development Sustainable Ecosystems Advanced Project (2016–2021), Indonesia worked to improve fisheries productivity and sustainable livelihoods within the three provinces of Maluku, North Maluku and West Papua, where 13 new coral reef MPAs were designed for multiple use, with a zoning system to support biodiversity conservation and sustainable fisheries. At the time of writing in mid-2021, regulations to prohibit fishing within the no-take areas (NTAs) were not yet implemented. This paper presents baseline and trends in percent coral cover and reef fish density and biomass in the MPAs. In 2020, overall coral cover had increased from 42% to 45% across all MPAs. The average target fish biomass across all NTAs had declined from 1709 ( ± 176 SE) kg per hectare in 2017 to 884 ( ± 76 SE) kg per hectare in 2020, representing a significant decline of about 48%. Large and significant declines in many target fish families across multiple MPAs are reflective of unsustainable levels of exploitation. It is evident that management plans need to be implemented with adequate enforcement and stakeholder engagement to stem the decline of target species and to secure livelihoods for local fishing communities. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,141,,Mar.

Coral reefs and associated fish assemblages are inherently dynamic due to their susceptibility to a host of disturbances, but regional-scale nuances in the drivers of long-term change frequently remain poorly resolved. Here, we examine the effects of multiple potential drivers of change in coral reef fish assemblages across 4 inshore regions of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (GBRMP), Australia, over 12–14 years (2007–2021). Each region had a unique disturbance history, in conjunction with long-term changes in physical and habitat variables. Phases of recovery were apparent in the years between disturbance events at all locations, but these were not long enough to prevent substantial declines in reef fish density (by 33%–72%) and species richness (by 41%–75%) throughout the study period. The main drivers of change in fish assemblages varied among regions; however, the most rapid changes followed cyclone and flood events. Limited recovery periods resulted in temporal shifts in fish species composition from typically coral-associated to algae-associated. Most trophic groups declined in density except farmers, grazers, omnivores and parrotfish. No-take marine reserves (NTMRs) had small and inconsistent effects on total fish assemblages, but delivered benefits for fishery-targeted piscivores. Our findings suggest that coral reef responses to local stressors and cumulative escalating climate change impacts are highly variable at regional scales, and that small NTMRs are unlikely to mitigate the impacts of increasingly frequent climatic disturbances. Nearshore coral reefs worldwide are high-value habitats that are either already degraded or vulnerable to degradation and the loss of important fish groups. Global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions must be coupled with effective local management that can support the functioning and adaptive capacity of coral reefs. © 2024 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,,,10,30,,Global Change Biol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: John Wiley and Sons Inc,,,,"animal; Animals; Australia; BENTHIC COMPOSITION; biodiversity; Biodiversity; carbon emission; climate change; Climate Change; CLIMATE-CHANGE; COMMUNITY STRUCTURE; Conservation of Natural Resources; coral reef; coral reefs; Coral Reefs; cyclone; ecological drivers; environmental degradation; environmental disturbance; environmental protection; fish; Fishes; Great Barrier Reef Marine Park; greenhouse gas; HABITAT COMPLEXITY; habitat degradation; habitat fragmentation; heat wave; HERBIVOROUS FISHES; marine heatwave; NO-TAKE AREAS; Parks, Recreational; physiology; population dynamics; Population Dynamics; Queensland; recreational park; STRUCTURAL COMPLEXITY; SUSPENDED SEDIMENT; temporal analysis; temporal dynamics; TROPHIC RELATIONSHIPS; WATER-QUALITY",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Marine protected areas (MPAs) usually have both positive effects of protection for the fisheries' target species and indirect negative effects for sea urchins. Moreover, often in MPAs sea urchin human harvest is restricted, but allowed. This study is aimed at estimating the effect of human harvest of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus within MPAs, where fish exploitation is restricted and its density is already controlled by a higher natural predation risk. The prediction we formulated was that the lowest densities of commercial sea urchins would be found where human harvest is allowed and where the harvest is restricted, compared to where the harvest is forbidden. Methods. At this aim, a collaborative database gained across five MPAs in Sardinia (Western Mediterranean, Italy) and areas outside was gathered collecting sea urchin abundance and size data in a total of 106 sites at different degrees of sea urchin exploitation: no, restricted and unrestricted harvest sites (NH, RH and UH, respectively). Furthermore, as estimates made in past monitoring efforts (since 2005) were available for 75 of the sampled sites, for each of the different levels of exploitation, the rate of variation in the total sea urchin density was also estimated. Results. Results have highlighted that the lowest sea urchin total and commercial density was found in RH sites, likely for the cumulative effects of human harvest and natural predation. The overall rate of change in sea urchin density over time indicates that only NH conditions promoted the increase of sea urchin abundance and that current local management of the MPAs has driven towards an important regression of populations, by allowing the harvest. Overall, results suggest that complex mechanisms, including synergistic effects between natural biotic interactions and human pressures, may occur on sea urchin populations and the assessment of MPA effects on P. lividus populations would be crucial to guide management decisions on regulating harvest permits. Overall, the need to ban sea urchin harvest in the MPAs to avoid extreme reductions is encouraged, as inside the MPAs sea urchin populations are likely under natural predation pressures for the trophic upgrading. © 2022 Ceccherelli et al.",,,,,10,,PeerJ,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: PeerJ Inc.,,,,article; Coastal management; Conservation; Cumulative effects; Environmental protection; Exploitation; fish; Harvest; Harvesting; human; Mammals; Marine protected area; Marine protected areas; Mediterranean sea; Mediterranean Sea; Multiple use; Multiple use area; Multiple use areas; Natural predator; Natural predators; nonhuman; Paracentrotus lividus; predation; Predation; predation risk; predator; prediction; Restriction; Restrictions; risk assessment; Risk perception; Sardinia; sea urchin; Shellfish; synergistic effect; Use areas,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Islands present within a marine protected area (MPA) offer an extremely valuable system to test the hypotheses of large-scale spatial patterns in assemblages, particularly when patterns on the islands were contrasted with those of the mainland. In fact, besides the natural causes of variability, insular locations are generally less accessible to humans than those on the mainland, with changing levels of accessibility, on the basis of the distance from the coast. This study examined the interactive effect of protection and geographical siting at TavolaraPunta Coda Cavallo MPA in Sardinia, Italy, on gastropod species subjected to human harvest. Rocky-shore gastropod assemblages were sampled at locations with different level combinations of protection and accessibility. Results highlighted that assemblages in the MPA have been more significantly influenced by the geographical siting of the locations rather than by protection, as the larger dissimilarities were observed between the mainland and island locations. These results can have important implications for the conservation of marine coastal assemblages, and provide important quantitative information for future estimation of the effects of protection of MPAs. Further, they indicate that the inclusion of representative assemblages within the MPA systems requires targeting rocky shores both on the mainland and on islands, thus providing important tools to improve conservation strategies. © 2011, the Coastal Education & Research Foundation (CERF).",,882-889,,5,27,,J.

During the last decade, the use of new devices, such as Global Positioning System (GPS) devices and geo-locator loggers, has allowed researchers to perform more investigations of this type. GPS devices were used on Wedge-tailed Shearwaters (Puffinus pacificus) breeding on Aride Island, Seychelles, to identify the main foraging areas used during early chick-rearing and to assess at-sea foraging habitat selection. Thirteen foraging trips were recorded, 61.5% of which lasted 1 day. One main foraging area, located approximately 100 km east of the colony just outside a granitic bank characterized by upwelling and higher values of primary production compared to surrounding areas, was identified. The foraging area size (3,313 km2) was much smaller than that identified during late chick-rearing (160,000 km2) in a previous study. This is probably due to the exigency to feed chicks more regularly and hence to find foraging areas closer to the colony during the early chick-rearing. The identification of key marine conservation areas, like those identified in this study, is a priority for designating marine Important Bird Areas and identifying habitat management measures.

However, they are currently threatened by a variety of anthropogenic-derived impacts, including environmental pollution by microplastics (MPs). For these reasons, it is necessary to identify suitable biomonitors for monitoring MP activities in aquatic environments and for estimating human ingestion of MPs from the consumption of commercial shellfish species. Therefore, our aims were to identify the anthropogenic activities that supply MPs into a coastal lagoon in the southern Gulf of Mexico and their variety; to determine whether oysters (Crassostrea virginica) are suitable biomonitors to perform MPs monitoring activities and to conduct an estimation of how many MPs could a human consume by the ingestion of a commercial portion of oysters harvested in this coastal lagoon. Our results noted that MP concentrations from water and sediment collected in Laguna de Terminos were 210,000 and 11.3 times higher than values reported in other protected areas worldwide. MPs chemical composition revealed that fishing and urban activities supply mainly polyethylene (21.1 %), poly (butadiene) diol (12.6 %) and polyethylene terephthalate (9.5 %). It was also determined that oysters did not reflect the spatial distribution of MPs within the study area and that a human could consume up to 806.1 MPs per 237.1 g serving of an oyster cocktail. Finally, a coastal lagoon polluted with MPs increases the risk of affecting species used for human consumption. © 2023",,,,,879,,Sci.

Coastal wetlands in particular are complex environments in which groundwater geochemistry is linked to a large number of controls, such as tidal action, landforms and interactions between groundwater and surface water. The Parque Costero del Sur Biosphere Reserve is part of a larger wetland zone that extends along the right margin of the Río de la Plata estuary. The environmental characteristics present in such area are strictly connected to the geomorphological setting of the coastal plain. The aim of this study is to understand the hydrogeochemical processes which determine groundwater quality in this biosphere reserve. Major ions and environmental isotopes of groundwater were analyzed together with water balances, water table measurements and a geological and geomorphological characterization of the coastal plain in order to analyze the hydrogeochemical and hydrodynamic processes present in the wetland. Results point out that the groundwater hydrogeochemical and hydrodynamic characteristics vary over the different landforms that form the Río de la Plata coastal plain, with particular chemical facies for each one. The principal hydrogeochemical mechanisms acting in groundwater are controlled by processes which include rainfall recharge, dissolution of CO2(g), carbonates, halite and gypsum, and Na+/Ca+2 exchange. Water is one of the main conditioning factors in wetlands and this study is the first attempt to understand the mechanisms that rule groundwater geochemistry in this remote area. This research contributes to a better understanding both the hydrology and hydrogeochemistry of the biosphere reserve and future investigations will benefit from our results.

This group of species is also heavily impacted by fishing because most have late sexual maturity, longevity, and low reproductive output, which affects their ability to recover from depletion. In Galapagos, marine megafauna species are protected from fishing throughout the marine reserve and are the main attraction for marine-based tourism, helping generate millions of dollars in revenue annually. Despite their importance in the archipelago, these species are being caught as bycatch in the multiple artisanal longlining projects that have been carried out since the implementation of the reserve in 1998. Longlining was originally proposed as a way of redirecting fishing effort from the severely depleted coastal-demersal species to pelagic fish such as yellowfin tuna and swordfish. Although all these projects have resulted in high bycatch of megafauna, longline fishing projects have continued without independent scientific studies to evaluate their impact, largely due to poor objective definition, data collection, and enforcement. To fill in this knowledge gap, we analyzed data of the fifth experimental longline fishing project undertaken in 2012–2013 to describe the fishery, identify variables affecting the composition and quantity of bycatch, and suggest mitigation strategies. This experimental project had twelve vessels, which deployed 42,007 hooks catching 4893 individuals of 33 species, mostly yellowfin tuna and swordfish. Of those, 16 species were protected megafauna, particularly blacktip sharks (Carcharhinus limbatus) and oceanic manta (Mobula birostris). These species were regularly captured during the two seasons and in the three bioregions that occur in the archipelago, suggesting little potential to mitigate their catch. As an alternative, we identified 14 hotspots where yellowfin tuna and swordfish could be harvested in large numbers sustainably through more selective fishing techniques such as pole fishing, a method that is also more economical for artisanal fishers. In an archipelago where the main economic activity is marine wildlife tourism, the implementation of an extractive and unselective activity such as pelagic longing fishing should be avoided to ensure the sustainability of the Galapagos marine ecosystem and its booming tourism industry. © 2019",,,,,183,,Ocean Coast.

Different treatments aimed at improving the grassland and enhancing the forage quality of herbaceous resources have been developed to face this problem. We report the results of a five-year experiment conducted in a protected area of central Italy (the “Laghi di Suviana e Brasimone” regional park) on an abandoned pasture inside a beech forest encroached by intrusive species (mainly bracken). We analyzed the effect on sward’s specific composition and grazing value of two agronomic factors: (i) the establishment method (ploughing followed by sowing of a forage mixture versus no intervention), and (ii) the number of cuts performed on vegetation during the growing season (0, 1 or 2 cuts). Plots were arranged according to a split-split-plot experimental design with three replications, with the sampling dates as the main factor, the establishment technique as the subplot factor, and the number of cuts as the sub-subplot factor. In each plot, data were recorded once a month from June to September every year from 2006 to 2010, in order to assess the botanical composition and the quality of the sward. The main pastoral and botanical parameters of pastures were significantly affected by both cutting and sowing. Establishment by sowing significantly reduced the presence of bracken, even with no cuts, with strong effects on the qualitative value of the pasture. A single cut resulted in an efficient recovery of the pasture as compared to cutting twice, especially in sown plots. Our results confirmed that the regular and continued maintenance of the recovered areas is crucial to ensure the long-term preservation of the results achieved by the improvements. © SISEF.",,490-496,,JUNE2016,9,,IForest,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: SISEF - Italian Society of Silviculture and Forest Ecology,,,,Botanical composition; Botanical Composition; BRACKEN CONTROL; Grasslands; Grazing value; Grazing Value; GREAT-BRITAIN; HEATHLAND RESTORATION; L.

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) might constitute potential antiviral agents, which had been previously evaluated in fish with positive prospects, based on their properties as immunomodulators or directly killing pathogens. In this line, we aimed to evaluate this dual role by administering two European sea bass synthetic AMPs (Hamp or Dic) prior to NNV infection. Both treatments conferred partial protection against NNV though viral replication and load were not affected. Both AMPs elicited, prior to infection, AMP response and leukocyte mobilization whilst down-regulated pro-inflammatory markers. Upon infection, Hamp and Dic peptides abrogated the inflammatory response provoked by NNV as well as avoid NNV-induced disturbance of the leucocyte distribution in the brain, mainly neutrophils, macrophages and CD8+ T cells. This study points that preventive applications of synthetic Hamp and Dic peptides exert their antiviral actions through the immunomodulatory role and not by a direct action of the antimicrobial on NNV. This work opens the door to the use of AMPs as potential prophylactic tools against NNV as well as immunostimulant in fish farms. © 2024 The Author(s)",,,,,583,,Aquaculture,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier B.V.,,,,antimicrobial activity; ANTIMICROBIAL PEPTIDES; Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs); Antivirals; aquaculture; Aquaculture; cell; CELL-DEATH; Dicentracin; European sea bass; EXPRESSION; fish; GILTHEAD SEABREAM; Hepcidin; infectivity; NECROTIC DEATH FACTOR; NERVOUS-NECROSIS-VIRUS; Nodavirus; pathogen; peptide; T-CELLS; TELEOST FISH; TRANSCRIPTION; VACCINATION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Along the Southeast Pacific, these forests sustain productive and intricate trophic webs, serving as crucial sustenance for coastal systems and subsidies for deeper habitats. This study aimed to estimate the contribution of Lessonia trabeculata to the local blue carbon pathways within the southern sector of the largest coastal protected area in Peru, Reserva Nacional San Fernando (RNSF). By integrating remote sensing, scientific diving, and the traditional knowledge of artisanal divers, we conducted a comprehensive assessment and conservative estimates of carbon captured by these forests during the austral winter of 2021 using the least destructive assessment methods. We conservatively estimated ~1300 t C captured as standing stock by L. trabeculata in the southern sector of RNSF. Said biomass-held carbon assimilation would annually release ~1300 t C m2 y-1 as detritus, of which, once exported could potentially yield to ~130 t C m2 y-1 sequestered in deep-sea sediments. Detrital productivity of L. trabeculata was calculated for the first time in Peru, along with the social and environmental cost of emissions equivalent to the amount of carbon captured (855.8k US$) and potentially removed by the standing stock (85.7k US$). In addition, we present an overview of the conservation state of the kelp population in the coastal protected area, along with allometric equations for estimating biomass based on biometric measurements easily attainable underwater. This study represents the continuation of a pioneering effort towards the understanding of blue carbon in marine forests of Peru. Our study contributes to advancing the understanding and management of these ecosystems in the face of climate challenges.

Further, these protected areas face the challenge of protecting highly-mobile pelagic species that move between protected areas in different countries and across fishing zones. In general, the dissociation that commonly exists between academic and conservation groups, which work under different objectives and reward systems, serves as an obstacle for producing the information that is needed by wildlife managers. This limitation is further enhanced in oceanic islands, such as Isla del Coco because of their mere remoteness, a condition that dramatically increases the economic and operational costs for doing research. Objective: To illustrate the challenge of generating useful scientific information for conservation decision making in protected areas, using Isla del Coco National Park in Costa Rica as a case study, and to propose pos-sible solutions. Results: In order to produce the scientific information that these areas require, it is necessary to: i) distinguish between biologically relevant information, and information required for decision-making, ii) generate information about the threats to biodiversity, even in the absence of information about the species themselves, iii) establish clear goals and objectives for monitoring plans, and iv) build strong links between two types of groups: those that work from mainland and those that operate offshore; this includes working alongside fishing vessels. Conclusions: It will be a great challenge to articulate such relationships between groups, but this option seems more viable (in terms of associated logistic and economical costs) than attempting to collect the required data from an isolated academic platform. Also, this articulation appears to be the only way of generating information that is crucial for stock management, such as the accurate characterization of the fishing activity. © 2020, Universidad de Costa Rica.

They are frequently promoted as opportunities for win-win outcomes that can both protect biodiversity and lead to economic benefits for affected communities. This win-win view characterizes the dominant discourse surrounding many protected areas. Although this discourse and the arguments derived from it may lead to initial acceptance of conservation interventions, this study shows how it does not necessarily result in compliance and positive attitudes toward specific protected areas. Consequently, the discourse has important implications not just for making the case for protected area implementation, but also for the likelihood of protected areas reaching their objectives. We explain how the win-win discourse influences support for marine protected areas (MPAs) and, ultimately, their success. Using data from focus groups, questionnaires, and in-depth interviews at three MPA sites in the Philippines, we identified three reasons why the win-win discourse can negatively influence prolonged support for MPAs: dashed expectations, inequity, and temptation. Through an understanding of these issues, it becomes possible to suggest improvements that can be made pre-MPA implementation that can lead to prolonged support of MPAs. A focus on less tangible and economic MPA benefits, aligning MPA goals with cultural and social values, and higher levels of transparency when describing MPA outcomes are all ways in which prolonged support of MPAs can be bolstered.",,,,1,21,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000373935100028,,,,,,,attitudes; behavior; COMMONS; compliance; fisheries; FISHERIES MANAGEMENT; FRAMEWORK; INTEGRATED COASTAL MANAGEMENT; LESSONS; natural resource management; Philippines; PHILIPPINES; POINT; PROJECTS; RESERVES; SUSTAINABILITY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The 1 km2 plant, within a 10 km2 fenced site, lies along 7 km of coastline. This paper describes the approach of Yemen LNG along with its main shareholder Total E&P, concerning the protection of the coral biodiversity during marine construction activities in a sensitive environment. This approach was developed according to three stages: establishing biodiversity, monitoring coral communities and protecting the reef ecosystem with mitigation and compensation means. Knowledge of the coral biodiversity was an indispensable preliminary stage to evaluate the sensitivity of the site. The Environmental Baseline Studies have highlighted the richness of the marine ecosystem. The plant is bordered by a dense, diversified coral community forming a narrow reef extending from the shore to a depth of 15 metres. Almost 85 coral species occur in the reefs, colonizing about 85% of the substrate. The largest coral colonies are approximately 400 years old. Therefore, these corals are a valuable and delicate resource. Monitoring composition and diversity of corals communities is considered an integral part of biodiversity conservation. The monitoring plan allowed to measure several parametres: some of which were related to the natural environment, others measured the effects of the works on water quality and finally, most observations included a direct measurement of coral community health. Protecting the reef ecosystem by implementing mitigation and compensation measures is aimed at keeping reef biodiversity at its highest level by preventing and/or reducing the negative impacts on the ecosystem. Initially, part of the marine construction work encroached on existing coral outcrops. A planned, but not yet implemented, Marine Protected Area nearby also increased the pressure on the construction teams who had to fulfill the Social and Environmental Impact Assessment Study requirements as well as World Bank and IFC standards. It is recognized that some limited physical damage to corals occurred despite the implementation of these mitigation measures. Lessons learned from the monitoring will be used to provide feedback to the industry in general. This offers a positive way forward when constructing installations in sensitive coastal marine environments.

Understanding the eco-social aspects from the perspective of local communities in the Himalayan region has been challenging due to the overlapping and entangled ecological and social relations in the mountains, which lack a comprehensive and systematic assessment framework. To address this gap, the study incorporates 300 stakeholders' perspectives from five distinct groups, with the objective of constructing an explanatory model that combines qualitative and quantitative methodologies. This analysis was conducted within the framework of the widely recognized tourism area life cycle (TALC) model. Also, it integrated participatory appraisal with robust statistical modelling techniques, including Kruskal-Wallis Test, Principal Component Analysis, Analysis of Variance and Multinomial Logistic Regression to detangle the influence of internal and external factors on the eco-social structure of Sikkim. The results reveal that the status of TAE is uneven across Sikkim, predominantly influenced by diverse geoclimatic, geopolitical, environmental, economic, infrastructural, and sociocultural factors, as well as the capacity of the destination to cope with external changes. The study further identifies that the high-altitude destinations under protected and restricted areas, which are major attractions in Sikkim, are more vulnerable due to their relatively high socioecological sensitivity, posing challenges to future tourism development. However, based on the TALC framework and the stakeholders' perception-based model, the study predicts that the likelihood of Sikkim approaching the stagnation stage is low, unless phenomenon like climate (change), social security and environmental degradation trigger it. Albeit the greater concerns are for features (social structure, local-tourists interaction, seasonality and ecological disturbances) that potentially exhibit characteristics of consolidation. The key findings highlight the significance of the uniqueness, tradition, cultural heritage, basic amenities and community's capacity to cope with external changes may sustain tourism in Sikkim. Hence, the study advocates for a prioritized focus on capacity building through community-based participation, with special emphasis on the high-altitude destinations, as a crucial step towards ensuring the long-term sustainability of (eco)tourism and the preservation of the eco-social environment in Sikkim. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,49,,Environ.

We used priority threat management (PTM), a decision-support framework for prioritizing conservation investments, to identify management strategies that could support thriving populations of wild salmon over 25 years. We evaluated the potential benefits of 14 strategies spanning fisheries, habitat, pollution, pathogens, hatcheries and predation management dimensions on 19 conservation units (CUs)—genetically and ecologically distinct populations—of the five Pacific salmon species in the lower Fraser River, British Columbia, Canada. The PTM assessment indicated that under the current trajectory of ‘business as usual’, zero CUs were predicted to have >50% chance of thriving in 25 years. Implementation of all management strategies at an annual investment between 45 and 110 million CAD was, however, predicted to achieve >50% chance of thriving for most CUs (n = 16), with nearly half (seven CUs) having a > 60% chance, indicating there is a pathway towards recovery for most populations if we invest now. In fact, substantial gains could be made by investing in five combined habitat strategies, costing 20M CAD annually. These habitat strategies were estimated to bring 14 of 19 salmon CUs above this 50% threshold. Co-governance between First Nation and provincial and federal Canadian governments to manage salmon populations and harvest, and improved CU-level monitoring emerged from the expert elicitation as critical ‘enabling’ strategies. By improving the feasibility of different management options, co-governance brought an additional five CUs above the 60% threshold. Synthesis and applications. Supporting wild salmon in the face of cumulative threats will require strategic investment in effective management strategies, as identified by this priority threat management (PTM) assessment. PTM uses the best available data to objectively assess the potential outcomes of management alternatives. With renewed commitments from provincial and federal Canadian governments to protect and restore salmon populations and their habitats, positive conservation outcomes following implementation of targeted management strategies may be within reach. © 2022 The Authors.

We conducted a quantitative systematic literature review and meta-analysis on how researchers and decision-makers include ecological processes in coastal and marine conservation planning. Marine spatial planning ideally delivers representative protected areas systems that deliver persistence for ecosystems and species. Although several reviews have reported on incorporating connectivity as a process in marine spatial planning, to our knowledge, no one has yet published an inclusive review on how ecological processes are incorporated to help ensure persistence in coastal and marine planning. A total of 162 peer-reviewed journal research papers and 27 non-peer-reviewed papers (n = 189) were identified that included ecological processes in coastal and marine conservation planning between 2000 and 2019, the number of papers integrating ecological processes peaked in 2013 followed by a declining trend to 2019. We attribute the trend to the complexity of the problem of integrating dispersal and demographic objectives alongside other management goals. The results of our statistical analysis uncovered that incorporating ecological processes in conservation planning is important for coastal and marine ecosystems across the literature (p-value < 0.001). However, there was significant variation in scope and choice of method in planning assessments. Dispersal was the process most frequently incorporated in spatial plans, followed by demography and flows of nonliving materials. Identifying appropriate ecosystem objectives and incorporating multiple sources of uncertainty into conservation planning for coastal and marine ecosystems remain important areas for future research.

Sustainable mangrove management (SMM) aims to address mangrove degradation and reverse trends of mangrove loss while empowering local stakeholders to participate in governance processes. This paper contributes to SMM scholarship through a case study of Punta Galeta, a protected mangrove forest located in the Colón District in Panama, near the Atlantic entrance to the Panama Canal. Our primary objective was to understand the challenges and opportunities associated with SMM in Punta Galeta and to identify insights of relevance to Panama and Latin America. We identified several successful SMM strategies, such as local awareness-raising on the socio-ecological benefits of mangrove forests and corporate sponsorship of mangrove restoration. However, several facets of SMM remained challenging, such as implementing and enforcing management plans and fostering regular communication and collaboration between all stakeholders. Findings suggest that local-level SMM requires a greater focus on strategies to enhance communication, collaboration, and trusting relationships between diverse stakeholders, as well as a more cohesive vision for the sectoral uses of coastlines.

Previous modeling studies have found that reserves may increase or decrease yields, depending on local environmental conditions and on the specific life-history traits of the fishery species. Sex-changing (female-to-male) fish are targets of some of the most important commercial and recreational fisheries in the world. The potential for disproportionate removal of the larger, older sex of such species requires new theory to facilitate our understanding of how reserves will affect the yields of surrounding fisheries, relative to fishes with separate sexes. We investigated this question by modeling the effects of marine reserves on a non-sex-changing and a sex-changing population. We used demographic parameter estimates for the common coral trout as a baseline, and we conducted extensive sensitivity analyses to determine how sustainable yields of sex-changing species are likely to be affected by reserves across a broad range of life-history parameters. Our findings indicate that fisheries for sex-changing species are unlikely to receive the same yield-enhancing benefit that non-sex-changing fisheries enjoy from marine reserves, and that often reserves tend to reduce sustainable yields for a given overall population size. Specifically, the increased egg production and high fertilization success within reserves is more than offset by the reduced egg production and fertilization success in the fished areas, relative to a system in which fishing mortality is distributed more evenly over the entire system. A key reason for this appears to be that fertilization success is reduced, on average, when males are unevenly distributed among subpopulations, as is the case when reserves are present. These findings suggests that, for sex-changing populations, reserves are more suited to rebuilding overfished populations and sustaining fishery viability, rather than enhancing fishery yields. These results are robust over a range of sex-change regimes, stock-recruitment relationships, adult mortality rates, individual growth strategies, and fertilization-success functions. Our findings highlight the importance of considering the different contributions of males and females to population growth and fishery yields when evaluating the efficacy of marine reserves for enhancement of fished species. © 2012 by the Ecological Society of America.",,778-791,,3,22,,Ecol.

This study aimed to evaluate livestock diet composition, diet overlap, forage selection and livestock husbandry and associated land use practices in a typical traditional village landscape in the cold and region of the trans-Himalaya, India. The village territory (4300-4600 m amsl.) was differentiated into (i) irrigated cropping on terraced slopes, (ii) meadows valued for hay and mulch material and (iii) meadows grazed by cows, non-lactating dzomos (female offspring of cow-yak cross), goats, donkeys and sheep. The traditional livestock husbandry and grazing management practices included: (i) dependence of livestock almost exclusively on grazing during summer (May-September) and on stall feeding during winter (November March), (ii) regulation of utilization of hay and mulch material by the village council, (iii) divison of grazing area into blocks, each grazed for 5-7 days followed by an equally long rest phase and (iv) regulation of animal movements by herders such that donkeys did not mix with other animals and all animals spent almost equal foraging time in moist depressions dominated by graminoids and dry slopes by legumes and forbs. The livestock types did not differ significantly in respect of foraging period and bite rate. Bite size and daily forage intake of goats and sheep were markedly lower but search cost higher as compared to those of dzomos, donkeys and cows. Sheep and goats foraged on all plant species, while Astragalus zanskarensis was excluded by cows, Caragana versicolor by cows and dzomos and Thermopsis inflata and Potentilla fruticosa by cows, dzomos and donkeys. Goats showed the highest degree of selection for T inflata and all other livestock types for Carex infuscata. The highest level of similarity in diet composition during grazing was observed between sheep and goats followed by that between donkeys and cows. Goats and dzomos showed the highest diet breadth value (0.73) followed by sheep (0.53) and cows or donkeys (0.44). The bulk of stall-feed comprised the species that were not preferred during grazing. Local people consider Cousinia thomsonii and Cicer microphyllum to be the best quality winter feed for all livestock. Thermopsis inflata was considered harmful to dzomos, cows and donkeys and Seseli trilobum to dzomos and cows. People do not harvest C Versicolor, a poor forage but an excellent fuelwood species, from village lands as they consider it as a 'keystone' species facilitating regeneration and growth of high-quality forage species. The traditional land use and animal husbandry systems need to be improved with appropriate scientific and institutional inputs to meet the challenges arising from market forces on one hand and environmental conservation on the other.

Enabling legislation over the past 10 years has resulted in the designation of marine protected areas and the implementation of fisheries management areas as spatial conservation tools. This paper reflects on progress and lessons learned, recommending actions for the future. Increased investment has been made to improve the evidence base for deep-sea conservation, including collaborative research surveys and use of emerging technologies. New open data portals and developments in marine habitat classification systems have been two notable steps to furthering understanding of deep-sea biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in support of conservation action. There are still extensive gaps in fundamental knowledge of deep-sea ecosystems and of cause and effect. Costs of new technologies and a limited ability to share data in a timely and efficient manner across sectors are barriers to furthering understanding. In addition, whilst the concepts of natural capital and ecosystem services are considered a useful tool to support the achievement of conservation goals, practical application is challenging. Continued collaborative research efforts and engagement with industry to share knowledge and resources could offer cost-effective solutions to some of these barriers. Further elaboration of the concepts of natural capital and ecosystem services will aid understanding of the costs and benefits associated with human–environment interactions and support informed decision-making in conserving the deep sea. Whilst multiple challenges arise for deep-sea conservation, it is critical to continue ongoing conservation efforts, including exploration and collaboration, and to adopt new conservation strategies that are implemented in a systematic and holistic way and to ensure that these are adaptive to growing economic interest in this marine area. © 2019 Crown Copyright.

Results show that, in Green Island, in accordance with developmental requirements, there was a trend for partnerships to become increasingly complex, and for community level organizations to have close ties. Outside organizations are the spark that ignites MPA mechanisms, but such organizations first have to court the trust of the local people, in order to successfully promote their establishment. When community partnership networks mature, further challenges to their power develop. 'Learning-as-participation' can go some way to reducing conflicts that arise from power struggles. As well as this, local intermediary organizations play a key role in the development of institutional linkages, their main functions being coordination of inter-organizational communication, resources integration, and expansion of partnership networks. Such organizations are unique in their promise of an 'indefinite' service, and so can build close ties with fundamental community organizations.",,122-142,,,60,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000428216100009,,,,,,,BIODIVERSITY; BOUNDARIES; co-management; collaboration; COMANAGEMENT; community-based; COMMUNITY-BASED CONSERVATION; COPRODUCTION; FISHERIES; GOVERNANCE; institutional linkages; social-ecological systems; SUSTAINABILITY; sustainable development,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We used population genetics and spatioecological modeling of the Amblypygi Phrynus marginemaculatus to understand the genetic structure and metapopulation dynamics of Keys populations that are otherwise isolated by human development and ocean. Location: The Florida Keys archipelago and mainland Florida. Methods: We sequenced a 1,238 bp fragment of mtDNA for 103 individuals of P. marginemaculatus from 13 sites in the Florida Keys and South Florida, binned into four regions. We used population genetic analyses to understand the population structure of the species throughout its US range. Furthermore, we used ecological modeling with climate, habitat, and human development data to develop habitat suitability estimates for the species. Results: We found clear genetic structure between localities. The Lower Keys, in particular, support populations separate from those in other regions studied. Ecological modeling and genetic analyses showed the highest habitat suitability and genetic isolation in the Lower Keys, but urban development across the species range has resulted in the loss of most historical habitat. Main conclusions: A mainland-metapopulation model best fits P. marginemaculatus gene flow patterns in the Florida Keys and mainland. Ocean currents likely play a role in metapopulation dynamics and gene flow for terrestrial Keys species like P. marginemaculatus, and genetic patterns also matched patterns consistent with geologic history. Suitable habitat, however, is limited and under threat of human destruction. The few remaining pockets of the most suitable habitat tend to occur in parks and protected areas. We argue that conservation efforts for this species and others in the terrestrial Florida Keys would benefit from a deeper understanding of the population genetic structure and ecology of the archipelago. © 2018 The Authors.

For 25 years, the Park has led several varied operations by using different kinds of modules: between 1983 and 2004, seven types of architecture for production reefs and five architectures for protection reefs were studied, for a total AR volume of 4,884 m(3), and represent an investment of (sic)480,000. The purpose of the AR deployment policy of the Park was to experiment and test various types of modules, during small-scale operations, but including several phases of immersion and scientific field surveys. These experiments allowed development of the conception of modules and adapting them to the local context, targeting several objectives. Moreover, they are used to support small-scale artisanal coastal fishing by two complementary aspects: (1) The promotion of biological production in impoverished seabeds and sustaining professional artisanal fishing, with 2,684 m(3) of modules arranged in chaotic heaps in five areas, and increasing the biodiversity and the available fishing resources. (2) The protection of priority natural habitats (Posidonia meadows and coralligenous rocks) and to manage and share both resources and fishing grounds among fishermen, with 326 heavy obstacles designed to protect against illegal trawling within the 5.5 km offshore limit These 2,200 m(3) of anti-trawling reefs are spread along 17.5 km, creating barriers perpendicular to the coast. Since they have been installed, a significant decrease in illegal trawling has been observed. In the Cote Bleue Marine Park, the two categories of AR (production and protection reefs) are interrelated in the two protected marine areas (integral reserves of 295 ha where all kinds of fishing activities, scuba diving, and mooring are prohibited). These management tools have worked in an additional way and contributed to the preservation of the traditional small-scale fisheries in the Cote Bleue territory (for about 60 fishermen) at a time when these fishing activities are decreasing in the nearby zones.",,73-+,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000329380000013,,,,,,,,,"Ceccaldi, HJ; Dekeyser, I; Girault, M; Stora, G",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,GLOBAL CHANGE: MANKIND-MARINE ENVIRONMENT INTERACTIONS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In coastal areas, it has become clear that the success of MPAs, and the achievement of sustainable fishery production, requires a combination of effective management and conservation frameworks, maintenance of decent fisheries livelihoods, and a governance system that allows for effective participation of coastal communities, fishing people, and other ocean users in considering, designing and implementing MPAs. These ingredients are crucial to provide the social sustainability needed to achieve ecological sustainability, and in particular, to reconcile fisheries and marine conservation objectives, in light of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and Aichi targets of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). Since its inception in 1962, the series of World Parks Congresses (WPC) has focused on protected areas, in both terrestrial and marine domains. The 2014 WPC in Sydney reinforced the apparent movement, started at the Durban WPC of 2003, towards recognition of social and economic issues related to MPAs, including the importance of food security and livelihoods, and the crucial nature of interactions between MPAs and fisheries. Many discussions at the 2014 WPC focused on these human dimensions of MPAs, and the need to incorporate them into MPA decision-making. This article examines the process and outcomes of the 2014 WPC, with emphasis on the role of people (in particular, fishers) in marine conservation, and particularly in coastal MPAs. In doing so, the article examines the process of producing a Marine Statement at the end of the WPC, as a component of the final ‘Promise of Sydney’ declaration. That process led to a range of concerns including (i) issues over transparency and inclusiveness in the statement’s development, and (ii) content issues focused on representation of the social and economic conclusions, and advocacy of a specific MPA target for no-take areas. The article focuses on potential strategies for moving constructively beyond the still existing tensions between environment- and people-focused conservation and development.

Despite the growing literature about the expected response of populations and communities to protection from fisheries, and the number of studies measuring some of these effects, most of the mechanisms supposed to work in a marine reserve have not yet been empirically demonstrated. One of the main difficulties ecologists have to face when approaching this problem is the inherent spatial and temporal heterogeneity of ecosystems. This paper reviews the relevant literature and addresses the influence of physical environment (or habitat structure) on ecological processes occurring at the individual, population, and community/ecosystem levels of organization. It evaluates how the responses confound the 'reserve effect' with some aspect of the 'habitat effect'. Finally, it proposes some practical considerations for improving the methods aiming to evaluate the effect of protection in the face of heterogeneity, illustrated with some examples taken from our studies on Mediterranean rocky reef fish assemblages, and argues that a multiscaled, hierarchical approach to this problem (the seascape perspective) should be adopted as an integrating principle when designing a research program aiming to understand the way marine reserves work as fisheries management tools.",,Jan-20,,01-Feb,42,,Fish.

Reef fish communities modifications within the MPAs are now well known but their interactions with unprotected areas still needs to be quantified. Prior to the study of reef fish movement patterns between MPAs and unprotected reefs, the present study was planed to compare the coral reef fish communities of two fished reefs (Crouy and Laré gnčre reefs) and one protected reef (Larégnčre islet) within the Park. Twelve stations were sampled on each reef using underwater visual census techniques. Three point counts were completed at each station; one on the reef flat, one on the upper part of the reef slope and one on the lower part of the reef slope. Species richness, density and biomass of all edible species in the Pacific and of commercial species in New Caledonia were calculated. No significant difference occurred between reefs for edible fish and all three indices. Significant differences occurred for the commercial species, with higher values on the protected reef for all three indices. Species richness was 15% and 28% higher, density 65% and 107% higher and biomass 94% and 158% higher in the reserve than in the unprotected reefs. Significant differences occurred for the most valuable commercial families; Serranids, Siganids, commercial Acanthurids and commercial Labrids, which were also more important in the protected reef. These effects were less significant for the Scarids. Only few species, e.g. Chlorurus microrhinos, which is one of the most targeted parrotfish, have significant higher density and biomass in the protected area. Three species assemblages were identified using a Correspondence Analysis: one assemblage affected by cyclone Erica, one protected assemblage and one unprotected assemblage. A comparison with the results of a Canonical Correspondence Analysis showed that these assemblages were primarily related to reef status and secondarily to substrate characteristics. Protection measures were responsible for a modification of reef fish organisation despite a significant effect of habitat structure. The density of commercial species in fished areas near the protected area was higher than in the reserve before the protection was effective. These results and the relative stability of the protected community during 9 years support the hypothesis of significant interactions between protected reefs and nearby unprotected reefs. These results were used to plan a three years program to test fish movement patterns between these three reefs.",,159-174,,2,29,,Cybium,Comparaison de la structure des communautés de poissons coralliens d'intéręt commercial entre une réserve marine et deux zones non protégées dans le Parc du lagon sud de Nouvelle- Calédonie,,,,,,,French,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Acanthuridae; Anthozoa; ASSEMBLAGE; Chlorurus microrhinos; Erica; ISLAND; Labridae; marine reserve; Marine reserve; New Caledonia; PSW; reef fish communities; Reef fish communities; RESERVES; Scaridae; Serranidae; Siganidae; Sparisoma cretense; unprotected areas; Unprotected areas; visual censuses; Visual censuses,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Effects on native biodiversity are determined by an interplay between species' exposure to climate change and their specific ecological and life-history characteristics that render them even more susceptible. Impacts on biodiversity have already been reported, however, a systematic risk evaluation of threatened marine populations is lacking. Here, we employ a trait-based approach to assess the risk of 90 threatened marine Mediterranean species to climate change, combining species' exposure to increased sea temperature and intrinsic vulnerability. One-quarter of the threatened marine biodiversity of the Mediterranean Sea is predicted to be under elevated levels of climate risk, with various traits identified as key vulnerability traits. High-risk taxa including sea turtles, marine mammals, Anthozoa and Chondrichthyes are highlighted. Climate risk, vulnerability and exposure hotspots are distributed along the Western Mediterranean, Alboran, Aegean, and Adriatic Seas. At each Mediterranean marine ecoregion, 21%–31% of their threatened species have high climate risk. All Mediterranean marine protected areas host threatened species with high risk to climate change, with 90% having a minimum of 4 up to 19 species of high climate risk, making the objective of a climate-smart conservation strategy a crucial task for immediate planning and action.

Ecotourism plays an important role in the protection and sustainability of natural resources. Thus, the present study attempts to identify potential ecotourism sites using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and Geographical Information System-Remote sensing (GIS-RS) techniques in the Garhwal Himalayan region. The study is based on the use of GIS-RS used parameter concerning landscape naturalness, climatic characteristics, topographic attributes, accessibility parameters, reserved and protected areas, and natural attractiveness using a weighted overlay method in the GIS platform. We also used expert knowledge to assign weights and then normalized them by AHP eigenvector. We used the receiver operating characteristic curve for validation, which indicates the methods are very useful in ecotourism potentiality. The results show very highly, and the highly suitable area is about 21.12%, wherein 17.40% located in the greater Himalayan region. Areas adjacent to the densely forested areas, where snow-out occurs every year, develop various grasslands, cool climate, U and V-shaped valleys, very attractive landscapes sites suitable for ecotourism, but not for all seasons. The moderately suitable areas confined in the lower dissected valleys and upper snow-covered areas and make up about 26.04% (8456.68 km2) of the region. This study can help tourism planners and the government select locations precisely and further develop ecotourism activities and release pressures on the tourism burden in the region. The results have implications for sustainable tourism and ecotourism efforts of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal-15 (SDG-15) of improving life on land by preserving natural heritage, wilderness areas, and culture. It can help the employment generation of the local people and direct profits to the local communities.

Due to this high sensitivity, several studies have shown that intensive collecting may be more effective in these systems compared to other timescale procedures. The aim of this study was to evaluate the concentration of organic and inorganic nutrients and major ions dissolved in two small watersheds with different land uses to determine whether there are differences between these watersheds with different levels of impact and to identify the most appropriate timescale procedure for the variables under analysis. Therefore, monthly, daily, and hourly samples were taken in the two streams in the northeast of Brazil. One of the streams is located in an undisturbed area (environmental protected area) (S1) and one in a disturbed area (S2). The results showed significant differences for conductivity, temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen (%), sodium (Na+), and chloride (Cl-) ions and higher values presented in the anthropogenic stream. Dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) in S2 mainly comprised ammonium (NH4+), while nitrate (NO3-) predominated in S1. The considerable increase in the concentration of NO(3)(-)and dilution of Na+ and Cl- after rain in April in S1 shows how precipitation may change the chemical composition of the water in a 1-day period. No changes were observed in the concentrations of major ions and nutrients that could be related to the cyclical variation of the hours during the day in both small watersheds. Daily collections allow better monitoring of the dynamics of streams and greater robustness of the data.",,,,1,188,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000367880700038,,,,,,,AMAZON; Anthropogenic; COASTAL ATLANTIC FOREST; Collection procedure; Conservation; DEFORESTATION; LAND-USE CHANGE; NITROGEN DYNAMICS; PASTURE; PATTERNS; PHOSPHORUS; Precipitation; TIME; WATER CHEMISTRY; Watershed,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Today, PAs cover c15% of the Earth's land mass and c3% of the global oceans. These numbers are expected to grow rapidly to meet the Convention on Biological Diversity's Aichi Biodiversity target 11, which aims to see 17% and 10% of terrestrial and marine biomes protected, respectively, by 2020. This target also requires countries to ensure that PAs protect an ""ecologically representative"" sample of their biodiversity. At present, there is no clear definition of what desirable ecological representation looks like, or guidelines of how to standardize its assessment as the PA estate grows. We propose a systematic approach to measure ecological representation in PA networks using the Protection Equality (PE) metric, which measures how equally ecological features, such as habitats, within a country's borders are protected. We present an R package and two Protection Equality (PE) measures; proportional to area PE, and fixed area PE, which measure the representativeness of a country's PA network. We illustrate the PE metrics with two case studies: coral reef protection across countries and ecoregions in the Coral Triangle, and representation of ecoregions of six of the largest countries in the world. Our results provide repeatable transparency to the issue of representation in PA networks and provide a starting point for further discussion, evaluation and testing of representation metrics. They also highlight clear shortcomings in current PA networks, particularly where they are biased towards certain assemblage types or habitats. Our proposed metrics should be used to report on measuring progress towards the representation component of Aichi Target 11. The PE metrics can be used to measure the representation of any kind of ecological feature including: species, ecoregions, processes or habitats. © 2017 Chauvenet et al.

There are 45 conservation units throughout the region, and the Guaraqueçaba Environmental Protection Area is one of them. It protects 282,446.36 hectares of the region, but not necessarily efficiently. Its conservation framework lacks strategies such as an updated Management Plan. Understanding the threats to protected areas is of utmost importance, as most of the planning depends on it. Thus, this article aimed to analyze the threats to the conservation of the Guaraqueçaba Environmental Protection Area, identified through the realization of three participatory workshops applying Phases I and II of the MARISCO method (Adaptive Management of Vulnerability and Risk in Conservation Areas). In this way, the conservation status of this Conservation Unit was assessed, resulting in the identification and evaluation of threats. Additionally, cause and effect chains were established, indicating the relationships between the threats and their impacts on biodiversity and, consequently, human well-being. As a result, 24 stressors, 28 threats, and 55 contributing factors were highlighted.

Currently, the species is classified as endangered due to fragmentation, deforestation and increasing fire events affecting southern Chile. Although fire is a key factor shaping the dynamics of A. araucana forests, the impact of fire on the chemical and microbiological soil properties remains elusive. Here, we aimed to characterize the (bio)chemical and microbiological soil traits in different sites of the Andes and the Coastal range of southern Chile, as a way to describe the conservation status of A. araucana forests in contrasting environments with different fire history. The study was conducted in old-growth A. araucana forests within protected areas affected by different fire events during the last 18 years. Roots were analyzed for arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) colonization and soil samples were processed for (bio)chemical and microbiological analyses. Our results revealed that AM colonization was strongly affected by fire, being closely related with the acid phosphatase and ?-glucosidase enzymatic activities, which also showed lower values in fire-affected sites. Glomalin-related protein in the soil was also a good indicator of soil stability associated to environments non-affected by fire. Based on our results, the conservation status benchmark for A. araucana is in the Coastal range, showing high rates of AM colonization, fungal structures and biochemical activities in environments subjected to minor geological risks and no fire events. This research provides helpful information for finding efficient biological inoculants, including indigenous AM fungal species, which can help to enhance A. araucana plantlets with an optimized rhizosphere oriented to the restoration of burned A. araucana forests in south-central Chile. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,458,,For.

Although marine protected areas have been established in the Eastern Tropical Pacific with a goal to protect and manage region’s marine biodiversity, not all utilize or enforce a no-take policy, and none are capable of protecting highly mobile species once they move outside of the limit of these areas. Objective: We present the first evidence of shark connectivity between Cocos Island National Park (CINP) and Las Gemelas seamount located in the Seamounts Marine Management Area (SMMA), by a female scalloped hammerhead shark (Sphyrna lewini). Methods: Between May 2015 and May 2016 a scalloped hammerhead shark and a pelagic thresher shark (Alopias pelagicus) were tagged (V16, Vemco Ltd.) and monitored by an array of acoustic receivers installed at CINP and Las Gemelas. We analyzed the acoustic data descriptively and we calculated the residency index (IR). Results: S. lewini performed persistent movements between these two marine protected areas. All detections in Cocos Island occurred during the morning (7:00–12:00 h) and Roca Sucia was the most visited site. The shark shows a low residency (IR=0.02) and intermittent presence in the study area. We recorded the presence of A. pelagicus at Las Gemelas almost one year after it was tagged at the site. Conclusions: The persistent movements of S. lewini between these two pelagic marine protected areas, and the presence of a tagged A. pelagicus at Las Gemelas seamount, suggests that movements between oceanic islands in the region may be more complex than simple “back and forth” movements, with seamounts in between them acting as stepping stones, where they may also stay for periods of time. Our results emphasize the importance of granting greater protection to seamounts and creating connecting swimways to oceanic island hotspots for the conservation of pelagic and highly migratory species. Although the establishment of marine reserves around oceanic islands and seamounts have been proposed as an effective way to conserve and protect marine biodiversity in the high seas, their effectiveness is only partial. This study highlights the importance of studying the spatial dynamics of highly migratory species to help improve the design and efficiency of marine protected areas located in the high seas such as CINP and SMMA. © 2020, Universidad de Costa Rica.

The uptake of NbS differs regionally with some countries exhibiting greater uptake than others. The success of NbS also differs regionally with varying environmental conditions and social-ecological processes. In many regions, the body of knowledge, particularly around the efficacy of such efforts, remains fragmented. Having an “inventory” or “tool box” of regionally-trialed methods, outcomes and lessons learnt can improve the evidence base, inform adaptive management, and ultimately support the uptake of NbS. Using Malaysia as a case study, we provide a comprehensive overview of trialed and tested NbS efforts that used nature to address societal challenges in marine and coastal environments (here referring to mangroves, seagrass, coral reefs), and detailed these efforts according to their objectives, as well as their anticipated and actual outcomes. The NbS efforts were categorized according to the IUCN NbS approach typology and mapped to provide a spatial overview of IUCN NbS effort types. A total of 229 NbS efforts were collated, representing various levels of implementation success. From the assessment of these efforts, several key actions were identified as a way forward to enhance the uptake of Nature-based Solutions for informing coastal sustainable development policy and planning. These include increasing education, training, and knowledge sharing; rationalizing cooperation across jurisdictions, laws, and regulations; enhancing environmental monitoring; leveraging on existing policies; enabling collaboration and communication; and implementing sustainable finance instruments. These findings can be used to inform the improved application and uptake of NbS, globally. © Copyright © 2021 Chee, Firth, Then, Yee, Mujahid, Affendi, Amir, Lau, Ooi, Quek, Tan, Yap, Yeap and McQuatters-Gollop.",,,,,9,,Front. ecol. evol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Frontiers Media S.A.,,,,conservation; coral reefs; mangrove; marine protected areas; seagrass; sustainable development,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, this species has been also recorded in the southeastern coast, especially in Săo Paulo State, on islands located close to harbors, which are becoming a place of occurrence for exotic species. This study aimed to estimate the morphological sexual maturity (relative growth) of X. parvulus the functional biological patterns of the species in a No-take marine reserve. The crabs were sampled at the Marine State Park of Laje de Santos, an important protected area from Săo Paulo that is located close to the largest Brazilian harbor, Santos, using an artificial substrate and active search methods (scuba diving). The morphological sexual maturity of females was estimated in 7.28 mm, according to the Abdomen Width vs. Carapace Width relationship, while for males this value was 8.83 mm based on the Gonopod Length vs. Carapace Width relationship, the females presented an increase in abdominal growth, even during the mature stage in order to achieve higher reproductive success, since the abdominal structure is used to protect the embryos. The Gonopod Length vs. Carapace Width relationship showed that males copulate with different sized females, since a non-exaggerated growth of the gonopods keeps them adequate to the size of the female genital pore, i.e., juveniles exhibited negative allometry and adults presented isometry. Thus, estimating the size of the sexual maturity of a species requires the development of a model to acknowledge its biological and reproductive pattern, being an important tool to increase the knowledge about the behavior of this species and one of the parameters to evaluate its conservation status. © 2021, Fundacao Zoobotanica do Rio Grande do Sul.

A key goal in establishing marine protected areas is to maximize conservation benefits while minimizing the potential negative impacts to local fishing communities. However, current impact analyses largely assume a linear relationship between percent of fishing area or revenue lost with the magnitude of impact to fishermen. The LVI described in this paper aims to provide an additional dimension to impact analyses in which the adaptive capacity of individual fishermen is examined to estimate the differential abilities of fishermen to cope with the loss of fishing areas or revenue. This paper advances vulnerability assessments as it develops a novel framework for identifying and measuring drivers of vulnerability for understudied fishing populations whose livelihoods depend upon marine resources. This vulnerability assessment is intended to inform the design of marine protected areas by enabling researchers to incorporate the adaptive capacity of fishermen into socioeconomic impact analyses. The LVI was developed for the California commercial sea urchin fishery in the context of proposed marine protected area networks develop through the California Marine Life Protected Act planning process.

The survey method used in this study is similar to that of 'solVES’ method, which aims to assess relative importance of social value for Marine Park and discuss people's attitudes towards the future development of Marine Park and management of Marine Park. We selected purposive sampling survey according to the occupation category, and obtained 109 and 102 valid questionnaires in PPMP and GMMP respectively. In this study, four sets of questions, including familiarity with Marine Park, attitude toward use of Marine Park, understanding of social-value of Marine Park and personal profile, were designed to analyze differences between PPMP in Malaysia and GMMP in Indonesia. For both Marine Parks Biological Diversity Value (B) was scored the highest among all ten social-values. The participation rate of marine education in both Marine Parks are relatively low; both of them are no more than 35%. Compared with locals, tourists value biodiversity more, and while comparison among different occupations, civil servants value biodiversity more than other occupations. Through on-the-spot investigation and sorting out the management problems of marine parks reflected by respondents, we found that: (a) the weakness of basic education and lack of popular science publicity and education activities have caused the level of public's awareness of environmental protection to be not high enough; (b) the relative insufficiency of tourism infrastructure and increase in number of tourists in recent years, might have caused many problems such as destroying coral reef resources and littering. Some suggestions were put forward to solve the problem: (a) promote public awareness of environmental protection through popular science publicity and education; (b) for PPMP, the restriction on the number of tourists will benefit the protection of coral, while improving infrastructure, such as garbage collection, will help improve environmental pollution; (c) for GMMP, strengthening the synergy between local and central governments will help to deal with the relationship between land use and environmental protection and highlight environmental protection functions. © 2019",,01-Sep,,,173,,Ocean Coast.

In southern Florida, future urban areas may be inundated due to sea level rise, and there is conflict between urban expansion and wildlife habitat. In order to direct the urban planning and provide habitat for wildlife, the sea level rise scenario should be projected, and priority protected areas need to be identified. With this aim, we used the digital elevation model data to simulate sea level rise in 3 scenarios (0.4m, 0.6m, and 1.0m) and identified areas that would be inundated. We also applied species habitat data and urban planning data from Florida 2070 into the Zonation software to project conservation priority in the study area. Results showed that in 2070, 3.6%, 4.2%, and 6.5% of the urban built-up area would be inundated respectively, under 0.4m, 0.6m, and 1.0m sea level rise scenarios, and priority protected areas are mainly located in Collier, Hendry, Monroe, and Lee counties.

Mangroves are highly subjected to natural and anthropogenic disturbances, owing to their intermediate position between the terrestrial and marine environments. This study used Landsat imagery to track the temporal and spatial changes of mangrove forests in Guangxi Beilun Estuary National Nature Reserve. The objectives of this study are (1) to monitor spatial distributions and intensities of mangrove forest disturbances during the past 30 years, and (2) to analyze the natural and anthropogenic factors that cause these disturbances in the reserve. This study used the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform to establish a time series Landsat dataset during 1990—2020. And then, GEE constructed the image dataset stack using the Medoid method for annual best pixel composition. Based on LandTrendr algorithm and the dataset, we studied disturbances of mangrove forests in Guangxi Beilun Estuary National Nature Reserve from 1990 to 2020. GEE enables quick access and processes a massive number of Landsat images in a paralleled process. Specifically, the GEE synchronizes all the Landsat data and provides different levels of processed products, including the top of atmosphere and surface reflectance data. LandTrendr algorithm can be used to detect changes in the time series of satellite images pixel by pixel and capture pixel-level subtle disturbances. The results show that (1) during 1990—2020, the total area of mangrove forest disturbances in the Beilun Estuary Reserve in Guangxi was 45.94 ha. Most disturbances occurred near pearl Bay, and a small amount of disturbances occurred in Beilun estuary; (2) the maximum disturbed area occurred in 2001, which was 12.91 ha, and the minimum disturbed area occurred in 2007, which was 0.09 ha; (3) slight, moderate, and severe disturbances accounted for 57.5%, 29.17%, and 13.33% of the total disturbance, respectively, and the areas are 26.42, 13.40, and 6.13 ha. According to our results and literature reviews, the following conclusions can be drawn: natural and anthropogenic factors cause the disturbance of mangrove forest in Guangxi Beilun Estuary National Nature Reserve. In terms of natural factors, sea level rise, extreme weather, pests and diseases, and invasion of spartina alterniflora have seriously threatened the growth environment of mangroves. In terms of human factors, cultivation ponds and farmland reclamation directly occupy the growth environment of mangroves. Mangroves are also threatened by wastewater from aquaculture ponds and pesticide residues in cultivated land. Parts of the terrigenous mangroves are developed as dikes or other artificial surfaces to attract residents or visitors. This condition has also led to an increase in wastewater from domestic production; not only does it hinder the growth of mangroves, but it also hinders the flow of matter and energy between land and sea. In addition, results of this study can serve as an important scientific basis and fundamental data for formulating mangrove protection and restoration strategies. © 2022 National Remote Sensing Bulletin.

The identification of ecological conservation priority areas in urban agglomerations based on ecological conservation importance evaluation aids in ensuring the supply level of ecosystem services as well as maintaining the stability of ecosystems from the external functional dimension and internal stability dimension of ecosystems, thereby upholding regional ecological security and preserving human welfare. On the basis of the evaluation of ecological conservation importance, there are currently no techniques to identify ecological conservation priority areas in urban agglomerations by merging ecosystem service indicators and ecological vulnerability indicators, as well as the use of an ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator combined with an objective weighting method. In the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA), a new indicator system for evaluating the ecological conservation relevance was established by incorporating ecosystem service indicators, such as food production and carbon storage, and ecological vulnerability indicators, such as land use intensity, heavy rainfall days, and acid rain sensitivity, in order to balance out one-sided evaluation findings brought on by the removal of some ecosystem service values or critical ecosystem services. Then, using a combined subject-objective assignment method that blended spatial principal component analysis (SPCA) and OWA, the ideal scenario was selected based on conservation efficiency and tradeoff. With a trade-off degree of 0.6837 and a conservation efficiency of 1.0553, scenario 4 was determined to be the best option. In this case, the ecological conservation priority area?s overall ecological conservation value is comparatively the highest, and the potential evaluation inaccuracy brought on by the issue of indicator trade-offs is somewhat mitigated. The priority ecological conservation areas of the GBA covered a total area of 26,406.04 km2, or 47.69% of the GBA?s total land area. The majority of them were situated in areas outside the GBA?s central region, including Zhaoqing, Huizhou, Hong Kong, the northern part of Guangzhou, the outer ring of Jiangmen, and the eastern coast of Shenzhen, among others. The red ecological protection line and the bulk of the surrounding general ecological space were effectively covered by the ecological conservation priority areas. This paper proposed a new technique for selecting ecological conservation priority areas in urban agglomerations, which can provide a theoretical framework and technological support for towns and urban agglomerations sustainable ecological development and regional ecosystem management, so as to successfully maintain the regional ecological security of urban agglomerations while better protecting and promoting human welfare. © 2023 Science Press.

However, the desired level of protection may not be achieved without the adoption of systematic planning methods. Therefore, we applied the system conservation planning method, including stakeholder's participation, to the planning process of the Park. Then, according to the value of diversity of each site, we set the purpose and objectives of protection. The system conservation planning method aims to achieve the largest ecological conservation purposes with the minimum socio-economic cost, and to promote the development of the South Penghu Marine National Park marine protected area. Therefore, we used coral coverage rate and fish richness data, as well as socio-economic data on the harvest of the most used fishing techniques, i.e., fishing line, long line, trolling line, and gill net. The results of the Marxan analysis show that the coral coverage rate is notably high along the coast of the islands of Dongyu Pingyu, Xiyu Pingyu, and Dongjiyu, where the fishing industry is not fully developed because of the existing seabed type. Hence, this area can be considered to be established as an ecological marine protected area. © Coastal Education and Research Foundation, Inc. 2019.",,50-61,,sp1,96,,J. Coast.

Management effectiveness assessment is an important component of conservation management in protected areas. In this study, we constructed a management effectiveness assessment tool based on publicly available information for China, with a total score of 126. We used the tool to systematically assess 27 national MPAs in the East China Sea. Our results showed that marine nature reserves (MNRs) and marine special reserves (MSRs) could be classified into two and three classifications, respectively, including MNRs I (n = 4, scores = 88-100), MNRs II (n = 6, scores = 75-81), MSRs I (n = 8, scores = 75-90), MSRs II (n = 6, scores = 59-75) and MSRs III (n = 3, scores = 53-56). Factors influencing the management effectiveness of nature reserves were the length of establishment and general public budget revenue, while for special reserves they were the length of establishment and total agricultural output value. Furthermore, protected areas with high management effectiveness scores tend to have a longer establishment time, dedicated management departments, adequate management staff and financial investment compared to those with low scores. In addition, the low-score MPAs require more communication with stakeholders. The study provides an objective and comprehensive systematic scoring of MPAs’ management using METT-based framework and multi-source data. It overcomes the challenge of the general lack of data on MPAs and provides a new approach to management effectiveness assessment.

However, the prevalent equilibrium analyses prevent our understandings in transient behaviours to achieve fisheries adaptive management. By incorporating age structure, we develop high-dimensional theoretical frameworks including both target and bycatch species to compare the yields of target species under different fisheries management strategies. With practical applications to the West Coast groundfish fishery in the USA, our research suggests that strategies with reserves can perform more benefits than traditional strategies without reserves in both conservation and fisheries aspects if target species have old ages at maturity and low adult survivorships. In addition, if fisheries yields are measured by weight, fisheries management has multiple choices over short time scales, which is contrary to the conclusions when yields are measured by numbers. The generality of applying our theoretical frameworks to fisheries management is tested with hypothetical parameters. Our work can be used to choose suitable measurement metrics and design more precise optimal fisheries strategies for given natural systems with specific life histories. © 2022 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,466,,Ecol.

They are widely distributed all over the world and are an important part of terrestrial ecosystems. According to historical records, there have 33 bovine species recorded in China. Since the mid 20th century, however, anthropogenic activities related to human population expansion and socio-economic development have dramatically transformed the environment, with a significant impact on the habitat of many bovine species in China. A systematic and comprehensive evaluation of the distribution and status of bovine species in China is still lacking, which may halt bovine biodiversity conservation. Method: We took advantage of fast-growing records of species distribution data and systematically searched related papers (n = 432) published in various academic journals between 2008 and August 31, 2020. We extracted relevant data that included study sites, species identified, and relative abundance, which allowed us to analyze and evaluate the distribution and population status of bovine species in China. We also used IUCN species distribution data and generated a heatmap of bovine species diversity in China. Results: (1) There were 28 bovine species recorded in these papers including national levels I (n = 16) and II (n = 11) key protected animals, involving 20 priority conservation areas. Red serow (Capricornis rubidus) is a new record in China. (2) The bovine species diversity was found to be highest in Tibet and Gansu (n = 11), followed by Xinjiang (n = 10), Qinghai (n = 7), Sichuan (n = 6), Inner Mongolia (n = 6) and Yunnan (n = 6). (3) The most widely distributed species at the province level is Chinese serow (Capricornis milneedwardsii, n = 16), followed by Chinese goral (Naemorhedus griseus, n = 11) and blue sheep (Pseudois nayaur, n = 8); (4) Six bovine species that lacked distribution and population data are mainly distributed in Qinghai, Xinjiang and Yunnan, including Altai argali (Ovis ammon), Kazakhstan argali (Ovis collium), gayal (Bos frontalis), wild yak (Bos arnee), banteng (Bos javanicus) and Burmese goral (Naemorhedus evansi); (5) There are new distribution records on Chinese goral, red goral (Naemorhedus baileyi), Chinese serow, blue sheep, Siberian ibex (Capra sibirica) and wild yak (Bubalus arnee) outside the distribution range published by IUCN, which need timely revision and updated. Conclusion: Our analysis provides an objective evaluation of distribution and population status of bovine species in China. Species that have been less studied or surveyed should be the priority of future conservation research. To better evaluate species distribution status, we strongly recommend that data holders publish or share any species distribution data obtained from recent regional surveys. © 2021, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

However, most countries along the MSR are developing nations and emerging economies with high natural resource consumption and fragile environments and face conflicts between economic development and environmental protection. In this context, understanding the status of natural resource utilization in MSR countries is important to advance sustainable development in these countries and promote the construction of the Green Belt and Road, and global environmental governance. Focusing on SDGs 6 (water), 14 (life below water), and 15 (life on land), this study constructed an indicator framework for assessing the sustainable use of natural resources with 24 targets and 42 indicators. Strong and weak sustainability concepts were introduced, and the constant elasticity of substitution function and combined compromise solution method were used to assess the sustainability of natural resource use for 46 countries along the MSR in 2020. The results showed that: (1) the scores in the weak sustainability scenario were higher than those in the strong scenario. The differences in the target scores between the two sustainability scenarios revealed unevenness among the indicator scores. Strong sustainability prefers balanced performance across indicators over weak sustainability. (2) MSR countries performed poorly on targets 6.3 (Improve water quality), 6.4 (Water use), 6.5 (Integrated water resources management), 14.1 (Reduce marine pollution), 14.4 (Conserve fish stocks), 14.5 (Protect marine protected areas), 14. a (Develop marine science and technology), 15.1 (Ecosystem systems and services) and 15.6 (Access and share genetic resources); therefore, these countries should increase their efforts in these areas and improve relevant policies and measures. (3) From the perspective of SDG scores, Portugal, Croatia, and Italy topped each SDG, while Sudan, Somalia, and Djibouti lagged. Several countries, such as Singapore, Iran, and Myanmar, show uneven performance. Governments should develop more effective resource development and conservation plans based on their strengths and weaknesses. (4) Regarding final rankings, Portugal, Croatia, and Greece had the best overall performance, whereas Liberia, Somalia, and Djibouti ranked last. Regionally, Europe ranked highest, followed by South America, Asia, and Africa, which are related to their economic development and resource endowment levels. (5) In the future, China and the MSR countries should focus on promoting international cooperation in areas such as water security, blue carbon development, and biodiversity conservation. Furthermore, China should develop targeted investment and cooperation strategies based on the differences in resource use, environmental conditions, and development levels among countries.

In particular, spatial zoning for various types of MPA designs could accommodate several demands for ecological conservation while minimizing socioeconomic impact. Most spatial zoning approaches are formulated as nonlinear Multi-Objective Decision-Making (MODM) models, which are solved using stochastic search algorithms, such as the popular Marxan with Zones. Due to the stochastic nature of these algorithms, the final MPA design is the composite result of several modeling experiments, and the solution is often suboptimal. For the current study, two MODM models were developed based on Multi-Objective Integer Linear Programming (MOILP) for MPA spatial zoning. The proposed models are referred to as a buffer cells model (BCM) and an external border cells model (EBCM). BCM allocates two types of cells to an MPA zone, covering core and buffer cells. The EBCM uses external border cells instead of buffer cells. Both models can minimize the cost incurred by MPA implementation while simultaneously satisfying different conservation targets. The solutions found are globally optimal. MPA designs from the BCM, EBCM, and Marxan with Zones are compared by displaying their spatial distributions. The results present the general characteristics of the BCM and EBCM and demonstrate how both models may have certain advantages over the Marxan with Zones method and can thus be considered as good alternatives for MPA spatial zoning. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,158-165,,,108,,Ocean Coast.

The results revealed that total population living around and within peat swamp forest approximates 370,000 of which not >1% engages in fishing. The main income, averaging 3,210 USD per household is derived from rubber, vegetables and orchards. A fishery is a supplementary occupation, involving catching fish mainly during the rainy season and aquaculture during the dry season. However, among extractable annual natural resource consumption, wild-caught fishing provides a significant contribution of about 3,880 ton with a value of 5.6 million USD. The most common edible fish species are snake-head, walking catfish, climbing perch, gourami and swamp eel. The main barriers to adoption of resource conservation measures are undocumented land tenure; poverty and unawareness generally lead to over-exploitation of resources. Encroachment, wildfire, development projects, destructive fishing, wildlife hunting and wood scavenging have accelerated the deterioration in their ecosystems.

The terrestrial ecosystems are facing an increasing urbanization, and the destruction and modification of their natural habitats by cultivation and forestry plantations, accidental or intentional fires, and particularly by the invasion of alien plant and animal species. Coastal areas and reef ecosystems are threatened by shoreline artificialization, sedimentation due to soil erosion, increasing uses of marine and lagoon resources and frequency of coral bleaching events. A significant erosion of terrestrial and marine biodiversity is observed on the island since the last decades. In the context of the Land Management Plan (PGA) and Marine Area Management Plan (PGEM) recently set up in the island by local authorities, scientific surveys and inventories were made in 2006 in order to assess the status of terrestrial biodiversity (vascular plants) and marine biodiversity (reef fishes) and compare areas with different anthropogenic pressures. Studies conducted on the flora and the vegetation at low and middle elevation along altitudinal transects show that the plant invasion process is related to climatic and topographic factors, and species autoecology. The marine study aims to compare the protected areas with control areas in order to test the effectiveness of protection measures and to propose a streamlined monitoring protocol. A methodological study in both terrestrial and marine ecosystems was conducted in order to propose biodiversity indicators which arc crucial for decision making in conservation and sustainable development of island biodiversity.

To conserve biodiversity it is essential to plan protected areas using a prioritization approach, which takes into account the current biodiversity value of the sites. Considering that in the Mediterranean Basin the agro-ecosystems are one of the most important parts of the landscape, the conservation of crops is essential to biodiversity conservation. In the framework of agro-ecosystem conservation, farmland birds play an important role because of their representativeness, and because of their steady decline in the last Century in Western Europe. The main aim of this research was to define if crop dominated landscapes could be useful for biodiversity conservation in a Mediterranean area in which the landscape was modified by humans in the last thousand years and was affected by the important biogeographical phenomenon of peninsula effect. To assess this, we identify the hotspots and the coldspots of bird diversity in southern Italy both during the winter and in the breeding season. In particular we used a scoring method, defining a biodiversity value for each cell of a 1-km grid superimposed on the study area, using data collected by fieldwork following a stratified random sampling design. This value was analysed by a multiple linear regression analysis and was predicted in the whole study area. Then we defined the hotspots and the coldspots of the study area as 15% of the cells with higher and lower value of biodiversity, respectively. Finally, we used GAP analysis to compare hotspot distribution with the current network of protected areas. This study showed that the winter hotspots of bird diversity were associated with marshes and water bodies, shrublands, and irrigated crops, whilst the breeding hotspots were associated with more natural areas (e.g. transitional wood/shrubs), such as open areas (natural grasslands, pastures and not irrigated crops). Moreover, the results underlined the negative effects of permanent crops, such as vineyards, olive groves, and orchards, in particular during the winter season. This research highlights the importance of farmland areas mainly for wintering species and the importance of open areas for breeding species in the Mediterranean Basin. This may be true even when the species' spatial distribution could be affected by biogeography. An important result showed that the hotspots for breeding species cannot be used as a surrogate for the wintering species, which were often not considered in the planning of protected areas. © 2016 Chiatante, Meriggi.

Colonies of A. subpinnata showed a mean density between 0.22 ± 0.03 and 2.40 ± 0.26 colonies m?2 (maximum local values of 2.4–7.2 colonies m?2). The link between the local distribution of A. subpinnata and the main oceanographic features confirmed the fundamental role of the currents in shaping the distribution of the species in presence of hard substrata. This black coral forest represents the only one known thus far in the Adriatic Sea, but it could be linked with other unseen forests all over the Mediterranean Sea. The associated megafauna highlights the importance of these forests as habitat for species of both conservation and commercial importance but, at the same time, makes such habitat a target for fishing practices, as many lost fishing gears were found within the coral forest. The enlargement of the MPA borders and the enforcement of controls in the area of the A. subpinnata forest is urgently needed for the proper conservation of this protected species. © 2020, The Author(s).",,,,1,10,,Sci.

While in situ studies have shed light onto the spatial and seasonal variations of chlorophyll a (Chl a) concentration, and thus PP, in specific study sites, there are no comprehensive monitoring programs to assess its long-term variation nor its seasonal patterns in broader areas of coastal Ecuador. The main objective of the present study is to evaluate changes in Chl a concentration along the coast of Ecuador and examine how these changes correspond to changes in Sea Surface Temperature (SST). Eighteen offshore and nearshore sampling sites along the Ecuadorian coast were studied over 15 years, using satellite measurements of MODIS-Aqua and MUR. Results show mean Chl a concentration in coastal Ecuador is rather low (1.5 mg m?3) in comparison with other oceanic regions. Puerto Bolivar, Gulf of Guayaquil and Esmeraldas were characterized by the highest mean Chl a concentration; while Galera San Francisco Marine Reserve, Cojimies and Cabuyal were characterized by the lowest. A positive trend in Chl a concentration was detected at the southernmost (Puerto Bolivar and Gulf of Guayaquil) and northernmost (Esmeraldas) study sites, with a seasonal trend following the observed seasonal SST trend. Chl a is high in areas under the influence of both the Humboldt upwelling system and river discharge. The positive correlation between Chl a and SST is likely a response to increased precipitation during warmer months. These results highlight the importance of improving our understanding of the effects of climate change on coastal PP, and the potential for these effects to influence the health of commercial and threatened marine species. Further research should assess the implications of changes in PP and SST for species of commercial and conservation importance along the coast of Ecuador. © 2021 The Author(s).

Although it was not originally designed for fisheries management, Automatic Identification System (AIS) data provides useful, open access, near real-time and high-resolution information that allows for increased monitoring, particularly around Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) and in Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction. This study uses AIS data provided by Global Fishing Watch to assess the spatial distribution and seasonal dynamics of fishing effort by vessel flag within the GMR and the IEEZ from 2012 to 2021. Based on kernel density estimation analysis, we determinate the core-use areas (50%) and spatial extent (95%) of fishing activities by fleets (Ecuadorian and foreign), gear types and seasons (warm, from December to May; and cold, from June to November). Our results show that the Ecuadorian fleet recorded the most observed fishing hours in the study area, with 32,829 hours in the IEEZ and 20,816 hours within the GMR. The foreign flags with the most observed fishing hours in the IEEZ were Panama (3,245 hours) and Nicaragua (2,468.5 hours), while in the GMR were the 'Unknown flag' (4,991.4 hours) and Panama (133.7 hours). Vessels fished employing different fishing gears, but the waters of the GMR and IEEZ were mostly targeted by tuna purse-seiners and drifting longlines. The spatial distribution of the fishing effort exhibits marked seasonal variability, likely influenced by seasonal migrations of target species such as tunas (e.g., Thunnus albacares, T. obesus and Katsuwonus pelamis), marlins (e.g., Makaira nigricans) and sharks (e.g., Alopias pelagicus). The collection and use of this type of spatial and seasonal information is an essential step to understand the dynamics of fishing activities in national waters and improve fisheries management, particularly in less studied areas and fisheries. © 2024 Chinacalle-Martínez et al.

This paper reports on the development and use of an agent-based model (ABM) dedicated to support marine park managers in their effort to devise policies to sustainably manage whale-watching activities. The ABM, called the Marine Mammal and Maritime Traffic Simulator (3MTSim), represents the spatiotemporal dynamics of marine mammals and navigation activities in and around the Saguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park in Canada. In the context of updating the current regulations on whale-watching in the Marine Park, 3MTSim was run to evaluate the merits of a proposed set of rules compared to the current regulations. To do so, a set of variables related to policies' impacts on the three spheres of sustainable development, namely the impact on whales (Environment), on whale-watching companies (Economy), and tourist experience (Society) was analysed. 3MTSim's simulations highlighted that the proposed rules are expected to improve the situation regarding whale conservation and tourist experience with only marginal impact on the whale-watching industry. In the proposed regulations, one rule is expected to be very influential on whale-watching activities. This rule limits to 10 the number of whale-watching boats allowed to stand within 926. m of any boat in observation mode. Assuming efficient law enforcement, 3MTSim predicts a significant decrease in overall boat concentration around whales in the Marine Park, which is one of the management objectives benefiting both whales and tourists. Interestingly, 3MTSim reveals that this rule could indirectly force some boats to observe second-choice whales present in higher abundance rather than some more attractive species scarcer in the region. This highlights the following management tradeoffs: Reducing boat exposure for the humpback whale and endangered blue whale is likely to increase it for the more abundant fin whale listed as of special concern (Canada's Species at Risk Act) and minke whale. This work demonstrates the utility of ABMs to support policy analysis in the context of sustainable management in a Marine Park. ABMs developed in close relationship with end-users are unarguably a tool of choice to manage complex social-ecological systems since they provide insight into phenomena hard or impossible to measure in the real system. Despite the labour intensive nature of their implementation, this investment is worth the effort. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,151-162,,,38,,Mar.

This poses the challenge of understanding human decision making in the context of decisions potentially threatening nature's integrity. We developed a spatially explicit agent-based model that simulates commercial whale-watching vessel movements based on a representation of the captains' decision making process when observing marine mammals in and around the Saguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park in Québec, Canada. We focus here on the human part of the global model, the submodel of whale movements having been developed and validated independently (Lamontagne, 2009). The objective of this study is to select and validate a model of whale-watching captains' decision making using the pattern-oriented modelling approach (POM): three models of cognitive heuristics (satisficing, tallying and Take The Best) along with a null model (random choice) were tested. These concurrent decision making models were built upon knowledge extracted from data collected during field investigations, including interviews with whale-watching captains and park wardens, onboard and shore-based observations, and analyses of a multi-year dataset of sampled whale-watching excursions. Model selection is performed by statistically comparing simulated and real patterns of boat trajectories (excursion length), spatial hotspots (kernel home range 50%), and excursion content (species observed, time allocated to different activities). The selection process revealed that the Take The Best heuristic was the best performing model. We used the distribution of the number of whale-watching boats in the vicinity (2000. m) of each vessel as a secondary pattern to validate the ability of each decision making model to reproduce real observations. Given the prevalence of the species attribute in the choice of which whale to observe, the Take The Best heuristic's ability to deal with non-compensatory information partly explains its overall best performance. Moreover, implementation of communication abilities between modelled captains led to the emergence of persistent observation sites in the park, which is a well-known collective spatiotemporal characteristic of the whale-watching industry; thus validating the fundamental assumption that cooperation is an important mechanism behind the pattern of whale-watching boat dynamics. The relatively good performance of the satisficing and tallying heuristics supports both field evidence and literature on bounded rationality in that humans likely use collections of heuristics (adaptive toolbox) to solve decision problems in different contexts. The POM strategy appears suitable to build up an informative ABM regarding the management of human activities in a natural environment so that further developments will be assessed following the same approach. © 2011 Elsevier B.V.",,2213-2226,,14,222,,Ecol.

We modeled species ranges for 2,297 plant species using Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines and compared the level of mean range representation in South Korea’s existing PAs, which comprise 5.7% of the country’s mainland area, with an equal-area alternative PA strategy selected with the reserve algorithm Marxan. We also used Marxan to model two additional conservation scenarios that add lands to approach the Aichi Biodiversity Target objectives (17% of the country). Existing PAs in South Korea contain an average of 6.3% of each plant species’ range, compared to 5.9% in the modeled equal-area alternative. However, existing PAs primarily represent a high percentage of the ranges for high-elevation and small range size species. The additional PAs scenario that adds lands to the existing PAs covers 14,587.55 km2, and would improve overall plant range representation to a mean of 16.8% of every species’ range. The other additional PAs scenario, which selects new PAs from all lands and covers 13,197.35 km2, would improve overall plant range representation to a mean of 13.5%. Even though the additional PAs that includes existing PAs represents higher percentages of species’ ranges, it is missing many biodiversity hotspots in non-mountainous areas and the additional PAs without locking in the existing PAs represent almost all species’ ranges evenly, including low-elevation ones with larger ranges. Some priority conservation areas we identified are expansions of, or near, existing PAs, especially in northeastern and southern South Korea. However, lowland coastal areas and areas surrounding the capital city, Seoul, are also critical for biodiversity conservation in South Korea. © 2018 Choe et al.

Displacement can influence the functioning of the fishery and success of the reserve, yet levels of displacement are seldom quantified after reserve implementation and very rarely before that. We devised a simple analytical framework based on set theory to facilitate reserve placement. Implementation of the framework requires maps of fishing grounds, fishing effort, or catch per unit effort for at least 2 years. The framework quantifies the level of conflict that a reserve designation might cause in the fishing sector due to displacement and the opportunities to offset the conflict through fisher spatial mobility (i.e., ability of fishers to fish elsewhere). We also considered how the outputs of the framework can be used to identify targeted management interventions for each fishery. We applied the method in Honduras, where the largest marine protected area in Central America is being placed, for which spatial data on fishing effort were available for 6 fisheries over 3 years. The proposed closure had a greater negative impact on the shrimp and lobster scuba fisheries, which concentrated respectively 28% and 18% of their effort inside the reserve. These fisheries could not accommodate the displacement within existing fishing grounds. Both would be forced to stretch into new fishing grounds, which are available but are of unknown quality. These stakeholders will likely require compensation to offset costly exploratory fishing or to travel to fishing grounds farther away from port. © 2016, Society for Conservation Biology.",,166-175,,1,30,,Conserv.

However, so far their design from the onset has rarely considered both objectives simultaneously. Here we overcome this barrier in designing a network of reserves for the Caribbean spiny lobster, a species with long larval duration for which local management is considered pointless because the benefits of protection are believed to be accrued elsewhere. Our reserve design approach uses spatially explicit population models and considers ontogenetic migration, larval and adult movement. We show that yield and persistence are negatively related, but that both objectives can be maximized simultaneously during planning. Importantly, we also show that local efforts to manage spiny lobster, the most economically valuable marine resource in the Caribbean, can result in locally accrued benefits, overcoming a major barrier to investing effort in the appropriate management of this species. © 2016 The Authors.

This limits our ability to effectively conserve coral reef ecosystems because size specific dynamics are rarely incorporated. Our aim is to quantify variation in the size structure of coral populations across 20 sites along a tropical-to-subtropical environmental gradient on the east coast of Australia (similar to 23 to 30(degrees)S), to determine how size structure changes with a gradient of sea surface temperature, turbidity, productivity and light levels. We use two approaches: 1) linear regression with summary statistics (such as median size) as response variables, a method frequently favoured by ecologists and 2) compositional functional regression, a novel method using entire size-frequency distributions as response variables. We then predict coral population size structure with increasing environmental stress and variability. Together, we find fewer but larger coral colonies in marginal reefs, where conditions are typically more variable and stressful, than in tropical reefs. Our model predicts that coral populations may become gradually dominated by larger colonies (> 148 cm(2)) with increasing environmental stress. Fewer but bigger corals suggest low survival of smaller corals, slow growth, and/or poor recruitment. This finding is concerning for the future of coral reefs, as it implies that current marginal populations, or future reefs in increasingly stressful environmental conditions may have low recovery potential.

Extensive coastal area modification and rapid urbanization particularly in the last five decades resulted in direct obliteration of natural coastal habitats and impacted on the ecology of those not buried by land reclamation. Effective antipollution measures have contained the spread and buildup of pollutants in the marine environment but an increased sediment load is evident. Marine biodiversity richness remains high despite these extensive changes and studies like the recent 5-year Comprehensive Marine Biodiversity Survey program added many new species and records to the inventory. Marine environment management since the mid-1990s expanded to include biodiversity conservation and led the way to the establishment of Singapore’s first marine park in 2014. The Integrated Urban Coastal Management framework has been adopted to provide a more holistic, balanced, and efficient approach to managing the coast and sea that aligns more with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Singapore’s limited but intensively used marine environment has been exposed to decades of urbanization pressure and increasing climate change impacts, and offers much information on the response and resilience of marine biodiversity.

Due to climate change and sea level rise, coastal aquifers are under salinity intrusion threat. In developing nations across the globe, coastal communities are dependent on groundwater for irrigation and drinking purposes. This chapter looks into the water harvesting methods used by local communities and their utility in augmenting livelihood systems of local communities. The Indian Sundarbans is the world’s largest contiguous mangrove forest, which is home to about 4.6 million population along with mangrove dwelling tigers. Unlike other forest areas, the Sundarbans do not have an indigenous population. The settlements in the Sundarbans can be traced back to the British colonial period (1905). They brought with them their traditional water harvesting systems. Household ponds are an essential part of the Sundarbans. Most of the landed farmers favours maintaining at least one small pond in their backyard. Pond management systems are one of the resource effective and cost efficient tools to address the issue of water security, household food security and augment economic conditions. Additionally it retains the monsoon precipitation, eventually recharging the groundwater and ameliorating the salinity intrusion threat. A socio-environmental project at 2017-2020 has commissioned 139 old pond re-excavations and 42 new pond excavations at the Indian Sundarbans. Baseline data on water quality when compared with post re-excavation results showed a drop in salinity (37%) in the groundwater levels near the pond sites along with providing water security for integrative farming methods. This proves that the local pond management system can play a prominent role in managing the salinity intrusion threat in coastal regions as well as play a key role in achieving the UN Sustainable development Goals (SDGs) in the remote, socio-economically marginalized coastal regions across the globe. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2023.",,287-306,,,,,,,,,,,Springer Nature,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Indigenous and Local Water Knowl., Values and Practices DOI: 10.1007/978-981-19-9406-7_17",,,,Climate change; Integrated farming; Pond management; Salinity intrusion; Sea level rise; Water harvesting,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Although protected areas (PAs) play a central role in conservation, their effectiveness at conserving habitats across the annual cycle of migratory species has rarely been assessed. We developed seasonal ecological niche models for 418 migratory butterfly species across their global distribution to assess whether they were adequately represented in the PAs across their full annual cycle. PA coverage was inadequate in at least one season for 84% of migratory butterflies, adequate for only 17% of species in one season, and inadequate for 45% of species in all seasons. There was marked geographic variation in PA coverage: 77% of species met representation targets in Sri Lanka, for example, but only 32% met targets in Italy. Our results suggest that coordinated efforts across multiple countries will be needed to develop international networks of PAs that cover the full annual cycle of migratory insects and that conservation measures, in addition to the establishment and maintenance of PAs, are likely to be needed to effectively conserve these species. © 2024 Society for Conservation Biology.",,,,,,,Conserv.

This is a consequence of increased pig production as well as the concentration of production on larger farms. In the same period, EIA rules have developed primarily due to an increased focus on the protection of groundwater and Natura 2000 sites. In particular, the implementation of Natura 2000 in Danish legislation has increased the demands on many farms. In its rulings on appealed cases, the Nature Protection Board of Appeal has strengthened its demands, and this is mirrored in screening practices. In this paper, the demands formulated in the guidelines of local authorities were analysed in order to investigate how the protection of groundwater, coastal waters, lakes and Natura 2000 sites develops through EIA screening. It is concluded that the level of protection has improved, and that the main cause for this is not EIA regulations as such, but the positive role which the implementation of the Natura 2000 objectives has played in this development. However, it was also found that the formulation of demands varies greatly between the counties, thus often resulting in ambiguity and leaving room for quite different practices in different counties. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,1097-1103,,4,92,,J.

Of these, a seed cell selection procedure works by evaluating potential cells for protection one by one, picking the one that maximizes the objective function, adding seed cells. This continues to full protection of the project area. The other is a Monte Carlo approach, which uses a likelihood sampling procedure based on weighted importance layers of conservation interest to evaluate alternative protected area sizing and placement. This is similar to the objective function of Marxan, a priority-selection decision-support tool based on optimization algorithms using geographic information system data. The two approaches are alternative options in a common spatial optimization module, which uses the time- and spatial-dynamic Ecospace model for the evaluations. The optimizations are implemented as components of the Ecopath with Ecosim approach and software. In a case study, we find that there can be protected area zoning that will accommodate economical and social factors, without causing ecological deterioration. We also find a tradeoff between including cells of special conservation interest, and the economic and social interests. While this does not need to be a general feature, it emphasizes the need to use modeling techniques to evaluate the tradeoff. © 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.",,2583-2593,,19,220,,Ecol.

For the first time, we present direct evidence of large-scale population connectivity within an existing and effective network of MPAs. A new parentage analysis identified four parent-offspring pairs from a large, exploited population of the coral-reef fish Zebrasoma flavescens in Hawai'i, revealing larval dispersal distances ranging from 15 to 184 km. In two cases, successful dispersal was from an MPA to unprotected sites. Given high adult abundances, the documentation of any parent-offspring pairs demonstrates that ecologically-relevant larval connectivity between reefs is substantial. All offspring settled at sites to the north of where they were spawned. Satellite altimetry and oceanographic models from relevant time periods indicated a cyclonic eddy that created prevailing northward currents between sites where parents and offspring were found. These findings empirically demonstrate the effectiveness of MPAs as useful conservation and management tools and further highlight the importance of coupling oceanographic, genetic, and ecological data to predict, validate and quantify larval connectivity among marine populations. © 2010 Christie et al.",,,,12,5,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"animal; animal cell; animal tissue; Animals; Anthozoa; article; biological model; Conservation of Natural Resources; coral reef; Coral Reefs; ecology; Ecology; ecosystem; Ecosystem; environmental exploitation; environmental management; environmental protection; fish; fishery management; Fishes; genetics; Hawaii; heterozygote; Heterozygote; hurricane; larva; Larva; marine environment; metabolism; methodology; Models, Genetic; nonhuman; oceanography; Oceanography; parentage analysis; Perciformes; population abundance; population dispersal; population dynamics; Population Dynamics; prenatal development; progeny; spawning; time; United States; Zebrasoma flavescens",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Renewable energy will play a vital role in meeting this demand whilst maintaining global climate change targets. Around the British Isles, development of wind farms has entered Round three, with large, high capacity wind parks being planned to enhance energy security and achieve 2020 renewable energy targets. Such developments place additional pressure on existing sea space and may result in conflicts with other marine activities and users. Co-location of certain activities, marine protected areas, aquaculture and commercial fishing in particular, has therefore been proposed as an option to ease demands on space. Using the UK guided by EU and regional policy, as a case study, following the criteria-based planning system, co-location is legally feasible. Crucially, co-location options will depend on site specific characteristics and site management plans. The biology, ecology and hydrology of the site as well as consideration of important commercial and economic factors will be determining factors of success. For marine protected areas compatibility with conservation objectives for the site will be fundamental. Where possible, it is suggested that activities suitable for co-location will develop in tandem with renewable energy projects. The importance of developing joint projects in this manner is particularly true for aquaculture projects to ensure tenure security and commercial viability. Adaptive management will be a basis for evolution of the concept and practice of co-location. Pilot projects and continued monitoring will be essential in shaping the future of co-location of activities. As the Marine Management Organisation continues the development of marine plans for the English inshore and offshore waters, a study into potential solutions for resolving sea use conflicts is timely. This paper therefore provides a concise overview of the current regulation affecting co-location of key marine activities within wind farm zones and provides suggestions on how co-location projects can be adopted and taken forward, using the UK as a case study. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,254-261,,,43,,Mar.

This review argues that theories and methods should conform to a perspective that ocean management is a societal activity with diverse goals ideally informed by interdisciplinary information. The review focuses on the integrated coastal management (ICM) and marine ecosystem-based management (EBM) frameworks and the marine protected areas (MPA) management tool. It begins by suggesting that at present there is a notable imbalance in the degree of effort allocated to monitoring the ecological and social dimensions of ocean resource use and policy processes. Based on how Western society and an influential epistemic community construct 'the environment' and society's relation to the environment, natural sciences play an inordinately important role in the description of the problem and policy recommendations. The discourse advocating for a global networks of marine protected areas, without adequate consideration of society impacts and responses, represents an example of this imbalance. Rebalancing the contributions of scientific disciplines encounters various dilemmas with epistemological, methodological and sociological dimensions. The analysis concludes with suggestions for balancing ocean and coastal interdisciplinary research and reframing key issues, creating self reflexive and multidisciplinary research teams, and reworking educational programmes. © Copyright Foundation for Environmental Conservation 2011.",,172-186,,2,38,,Environ.

As such, they involve a wide variety of constituencies and spawn complex management processes (Pollnac et al., 2001; Jones, 2006; Christie et al., 2009a). Social research, ideally integrated with biophysical research, plays an important role in the design, adaptive management, and evaluation of MPAs. The field of MPA-related social research is rapidly expanding (Jones, 2006; Cinner, 2007; Pollnac et al., 2010), and has the potential to improve theories of environmental management and MPA management effectiveness. Currently, there appears to be growing interest among donors, non-governmental organizations, government agencies, and academics to fill the once notable gap in understanding. Social research on MPAs appropriately consists of both basic and applied, mandate-responsive and mandate-independent research (Christie et al., 2003). As reviewed in this volume, it utilizes a variety of research methods, generating quantitative and qualitative information which can provide broad and specific analyses. Increasingly, integrated approaches are providing socio-ecological analyses either through integration (Aswani and Hamilton, 2004; Christie, 2005; Pollnac et al., 2010) or serial analysis (Stoffle et al., 2010) of social and ecological data (Christie, 2011). Ideally, these analyses are integrated into MPA management and evaluation within an adaptive planning framework, a practice which is complex but results in better MPA management, convincing documentation of MPA impacts, and learning (McClanahan et al., 2005; Armada et al., 2009; Eisma-Osorio et al., 2009; Lowry et al., 2009). There is little doubt that socio-economic considerations and effective MPA management determine the long-term success of any MPA. © Cambridge University Press 2011.",,121-140,,,,,,,,,,,Cambridge University Press,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Marine Protected Areas: A Multidisciplinary Approach DOI: 10.1017/CBO9781139049382.008,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Using survey and interview data from 36 communities in the Central Visayas, key variables are identified that are correlated with and predictive of marine protected area success. Empirically based management guidelines are: (1) EBM and MPA design must be context appropriate, (2) capacity development to develop MPA leadership and the technical skills are a good investment, (3) strict and fair punishment for infractions of legitimate rules should be utilized and appear to be welcomed by local residents, and (4) conflict and controversy are a predictable part of MPA design and implementation and need to be planned for. Most importantly, while scaling up management interventions can make both biological and institutional sense, there is a point at which institutional capacity is exceeded. This study strongly suggests that in the Philippines, and likely many other tropical contexts, establishing large-scale EBM, MPA networks, or extensive centrally planned zonation schemes based primarily on national law, international targets, and command-and-control policy are likely to fail. The pressing imperative of ocean-wide environmental decline should not be used to justify infeasible and poorly designed management interventions that ignore local dynamics and institutional constraints. © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.",,349-373,,03-Apr,37,,Coast.

The implementation of marine protected areas (MPAs) on Balicasag and Pamilacan Islands has been a partial success. As a direct result of protection, living hard coral cover has increased by 119% in Balicasag's sanctuary and by 67% in the non-sanctuary during the period 1984 to 1999, but Balicasag's reef is increasingly affected by breakage from anchors from dive boats and Crown-of-thorns starfish infestations. During the same period, living hard coral cover decreased by 20% in Pamilacan's sanctuary and by 45% in the non-sanctuary from 1984 to 1999. The decrease in living hard coral cover in Pamilacan's sanctuary is most likely a result of the 1998 bleaching event, Crown-of-thorn starfish and possible storm damage. Although there was an initial increase in the economically important target fish abundance in the Balicasag sanctuary and non-sanctuary and in the Pamilacan sanctuary during the first two years of implementation in the mid-1980s, there has since been a significant decline. Mean target fish abundance for the Balicasag non-sanctuary at 230 (± 65) individuals per 500 m2 is not significantly different from control sites without MPAs on nearby Panglao and Cabilao Islands at 164 (± 67) individuals per 500 m2. In general, fish abundance and diversity inside and outside the sanctuaries peaked in 1986, a year after the establishment of the sanctuaries when enforcement was strictest. Therefore, despite considerable success in enforcing regulations associated with these small MPAs at Balicasag and Pamilacan Islands, a trend of declining fish abundance and species richness among economically valuable species immediately outside the no-take areas highlights the limitations of small and isolated MPAs. This study contributes to the growing sentiment that it is not realistic for scattered, small no-take areas to maintain fish abundance and diversity on surrounding reefs when intensive fishing effort immediately adjacent to no-take areas removes most fish that exit these areas. This finding emphasizes the importance of nesting individual MPAs within broader management regimes that lead to overall fishing effort reduction and networking of MPAs. Among other recommendations, the authors advocate for continued support for community-based MPAs, a network of MPAs, reduced fishing effort in areas surrounding the MPAs and other management measures to improve the quality of the coral reef habitats. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.

The aim of this study is to examine the contribution of remotely sensed data as an indication of Holothuria abundance, by investigating the spatiotemporal variability of physicochemical parameters. The study area is in the National Marine Park of Alonissos Northern Sporades, which is included in the NATURA 2000 network. Firstly, the abundance of Holothuria species was measured by scuba diving. At the same time, depth profiles of five physicochemical parameters (temperature, salinity, pH, dissolved oxygen and Chl-a) were recorded by CTD (conductivity, temperature, depth), a primary instrument used to determine the essential physical and chemicals properties of seawater column profiles in the coastal zone. The physicochemical variables examined are the most common environmental parameters with the highest impact on growth, reproduction, productivity and survival rate of sea cucumber species, affecting the availability of food sources. Analysis of this data allows us to identify parameters which are essential for their existence. The analysis showed that only temperature and Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) could be useful for identifying the abundance. These two parameters are readily available from satellite data. Additionally, particulate organic carbon (POC) is essential for Holothuria’s existence. Consequently, a time series of satellite data products from Terra/MODIS sensor were utilized from 2000 to 2020 for sea surface temperature (SST), Chl-a and POC. The monthly temporal trend shows that the abundance could be justified in areas where the Holothuria presence has been established. Monthly spatiotemporal analysis shows that SST, Chl-a and POC availability, could be an indication of the differences in abundance recorded. © 2022 by the authors.",,,,23,14,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI,,,,Aquatic ecosystems; Cell proliferation; Chlorophyll a; Conservation; Dissolved oxygen; Environmental protection; Geographic information systems; GIS; Marine protected area; MODIS; Natura 2000; NATURA 2000; Oceanography; Particulate organic carbon; Physico - chemical parameters; Physicochemical properties; remote sensing; Remote sensing; Remote-sensing; Satellite data; Satellite imagery; Sea cucumber; sea cucumbers; Spatiotemporal variability; Surface temperature; Surface waters,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Additional objectives of the study included the comparative evaluation of the information content of the two sensors and the assessment of the optimum diversity index (S, H and D1) that could be related with the spectral and spatial information content of the images. Field data were collected during summer 2018, from 60 square plots within the Natura 2000 sites of the Northern Pindos National Park. Sentinel-2 and RapidEye satellite images were acquired over the same season and pre-processed for minimizing errors and variability due to atmosphere and topography. A robust machine learning algorithm was used to model the relationship between diversity indices and spectral and spatial features of the images.

Although resilience-based management is now well established theoretically, there have been few examples of implementation. In Hawai‘i, back-to-back bleaching events in 2014 and 2015 caused significant damage motivating the state to seek guidance on next steps for recovery. Hawai‘i is a unique case study in distilling global recommendations to place-based action because of its ecological and social diversity. This study conducted a systematic review of literature using a weighted point system to evaluate and rank twelve potential Hawai‘i-specific interventions to promote coral recovery following a bleaching event. Papers were scored based on their ability to achieve their management objective as well as their ability to directly affect coral recovery. A total of 100 papers were included in the review which varied in their scale (multi-site or case study), location (inside or outside of Hawai‘i), and type of data collected (theoretical or empirical). Establishing a network of herbivore management areas ranked the highest followed by parrotfish size limits for action that could promote recovery in Hawai‘i. Establishing a network of no-take Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) was the intervention with the most literature and ranked third. This method provided a systematic way to compare the effectiveness of management interventions, a system that could be adapted to other regions. This type of evidence-based approach can lead to more fair and transparent decision-making processes, assisting reef managers in navigating the translation of resilience-based management from theory to practice. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,58-68,,,99,,Mar.

Taiwan, a major marine user and fishing entity, adopted the Marine Conservation Act (MCA) in July 2024 by integrating 90 years of Taiwan’s area-based management tools with new conservation measures. It marks a transformative journey toward marine conservation. This study delves into the factors driving this change and assesses the implications of the MCA on marine protected area (MPA) governance by examining the development and assessment of core legislations for area-based marine resource management, and analyzing the MCA provisions to investigate its impacts. The findings reveal that international events often were key drivers of law-making. Taiwan’s practice represents a pragmatic approach that leverages global conservation events and goals and partially aligns with international MPA frameworks and the other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs) discussions to addressing complexities of sustainable use and strengthening marine biodiversity policies.

Emphasis was given to the presence and abundance of plant communities identified as habitat in accordance with the Directive 92/43/EEC. Twenty transects perpendicular to the shoreline were randomly positioned on the whole coastal area (30 km in length) in order to sample the full spectrum of plant communities. Vegetation zonation and relationships with the most frequent disturbance factors in the study area-beach cleaning, coastline erosion, presence of paths and roads, bathing settlements and trampling-were investigated through principal coordinate analysis and canonical correspondence analysis. Natural factors, such as distance from the sea and total length, were also considered. Differences in the conservation status of the sites were found, ranging from the total disappearance of the foredune habitats to the presence of the complete psammophilous (sand-loving) plant communities. Erosion, trampling, and paths were found to be closely correlated with degradation and habitat loss. Furthermore, the overall plant species diversity of dunes was measured with NHDune, a modified version of the Shannon index; while the incidence of invasive taxa was calculated using N, a naturalness index. However, these diversity indices proved to be a weaker bioindicator of ecosystem integrity than habitat composition along transects. A possible strategy for the conservation and management of these coastal areas could be to protect the foredunes from erosion and limit trampling through the installation of footbridges or the use of appropriate fences. © 2014 Springer Science+Business Media.",,194-204,,2,54,,Environ.

In this paper, the coastal dune systems of two natural parks located in central Italy were analyzed aiming at: (1) assessing diversity patterns of all vascular species, endemic and alien taxa in plant communities along the coast-to-inland gradient; (2) comparing these patterns between coastal sections characterized by different dynamical processes (accreting, stable and erosive coasts); and (3) testing the differences induced by the methodological approach used to characterize these patterns. Twenty-one transects were randomly positioned perpendicular to the shoreline in the whole coastal area (30 km in length), and the full spectrum of plant communities was sampled. Patterns of plant diversity were assessed using spatially explicit methods, namely spatial constrained rarefaction (SCR), able to avoid the confounding effect of spatial autocorrelation. The results show that species richness varied significantly between plant communities along the coast-to-inland gradient with the highest values at the level of mobile dunes and transition dunes. Species richness was significantly higher in stable coastal dunes than those found in accreting and in erosive dunes. In fact, sand dynamics (accumulation as well as erosion) create periodic vegetation disturbances affecting composition variability and succession. The SCR methodology avoided overestimation of species richness when compared to classical rarefaction curves. Our findings pinpointed that coastal plant communities create a highly spatially structured mosaic in which mobile dunes represent the highest compositional heterogeneity. Local managers are encouraged to consider these results for planning adequate conservation strategies. © 2016, Institute of Botany, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic.",,129-141,,2,51,,Folia Geobot.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Netherlands,,,,autocorrelation; AUTOCORRELATION; BETA-DIVERSITY; biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; coastal dune vegetation; coastline dynamic processes; dune; FOREDUNES; FUNCTIONAL TYPES; Italy; Natura 2000; PATTERNS; plant community; protected area; rarefaction curves; RICHNESS; spatial autocorrelation; species diversity; SUCCESSION; vascular plant; vegetation; VEGETATION; ZONATION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The present study aimed to link plant species composition of coastal foredunes with the physical dynamical processes of the coastline in central Italy. A random hierarchical sampling design, based on two spatial scales (quadrant and parcel), was applied to estimate the variation in plant community composition. Permutational multivariate analysis of variance (PERMANOVA) revealed an approximately similar amount of variation with respect to both the coastal dynamic class and the parcel level. In addition, principal coordinate analyses showed that three taxa - Ammophila arenaria, Elymus farctus and Otanthus maritimus subsp. maritimus - were mainly linked to the coastal dynamics: A. arenaria increases its abundance where erosion of the shoreline is very high, while E. farctus and O. maritimus are more abundant in the prograding coast. Finally, similarity percentages analysis (SIMPER) highlighted that where the erosive processes were strongest, the number of the species contributing to the total similarity was the highest. This is likely to indicate instability and a strong disturbance of plant communities that results in an unstable equilibrium. These findings have important implications for management and conservation actions. © 2012 Institute of Botany, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic.",,263-275,,3,47,,Folia Geobot.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,abundance; ADAPTATIONS; Ammophila arenaria; Arenaria (Caryophyllaceae); COASTAL; coastal erosion; Coastal sand-dune vegetation; community composition; CONSERVATION; Conservation biology; conservation management; Disturbance; DISTURBANCE; dune; Elymus; environmental disturbance; environmental factor; ENVIRONMENTAL-STRESS; ISLAND; Italy; multivariate analysis; Natura 2000; Otanthus maritimus; PATTERNS; PERMANOVA; PLANT-SPECIES DIVERSITY; Psammophyte; REGIONAL SCALES; shoreline change; SUCCESSION; taxonomy; Thinopyrum junceiforme; vegetation dynamics,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The objective was to identify the quality of water in the Goiana River, specifically in the area of the Acaú-Goiana Extractive Reserve (RESEX) domain, as a way of subsidizing environmental management. Historical data (2001 – 2019) provided by the Agęncia Estadual de Meio Ambiente (CRPH) of the State of Pernambuco were used for the Goiana River Basin, specifically at the GO-85 (Goiana-85) sampling point. The variables used were: Pluviometry, Temperature, (hydrogen potential) pH, Salinity, Dissolved Oxygen (OD), Oxygen Saturation (OD-Sat), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (DBO), Turbidity, Color, Total Phosphorus, Electrical Conductivity and Thermotolerant Coliforms. From the values found for the OD, it was possible to identify a stage of hypoxia. The values of turbidity, total phosphorus and thermotolerant coliforms were higher than those indicated by the legislation, which may be a reflection of the intense use of the area for agro-industrial production and effluent disposal. The data provided by CPRH demonstrate that there is a lack of continuity, especially at the GO-85 sampling point, which is located in the domains of the RESEX Acaú-Goiana, which influences the understanding of the seasonal variation between the dry and rainy seasons in the area.

For the plants, the collecting density at the national scale (0.44 dried specimens/km2) is well bellow the minimum for a complete knowledge about the flora (3 dried specimens/km2) or even for an assessment of the richness of a given region (1 dried specimen/km2). Recent analysis revealed that even in the South and Southwest regions, where the infra-structure is better and the number of botanists greater, the collecting density is inadequate. In the Săo Paulo state, some regions have been considered poorly collected. The Alto Paranapanema basin is one of these regions. This paper presents the results of a botanical inventory at the Paranapanema municipality conservation units (23° 32' 02"" S and 48° 45' 29"" W) and is part of a broader project which aims to contribute for an increase in the botanical collecting density at that region.

There are at least six soda pans of reference status in Serbia and only a half have strict legal protection. The number of similar, but disturbed (modified) habitats that could be reconstructed is still unknown. We conducted sampling in five natural and two disturbed soda pans aiming to compare a difference in physical and chemical water properties and benthic diatom communities. In addition, we tried to apply recently developed Diatom Index for Soda Pans (DISP) and Trait-based index (TBI) to test the applicability of taxonomic and trait-based approaches in ecological status assessment of soda pans in the southern part of the Carpathian Basin. In contrast to natural soda pans, lower pH and nutrients levels were recorded in disturbed pans. A total of 86 taxa of benthic diatoms, including 11 new for diatom flora of Serbia, were identified. A lower species richness and Shannon index was recorded in natural soda pans. Nitzschia austriaca, N. supralitorea, Navicula veneta and N. wiesneri were dominant diatoms in soda pans of the reference status. Both diatom indices were in average lower in disturbed pans, and this difference was statistically significant for DISP index. We concluded that two indices, supplemented with indicator values for some local diatom species, can be a promising tool for soda pan conservation in this part of the Carpathian Basin. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,451-466,,3,29,,Wetlands Ecol.

In pursuit of protecting 30% of the ocean by 2030, large scale marine protected areas (LSMPAs) are rapidly increasing, especially in small island developing states (SIDS). Many SIDS have limited offshore research expertise or capacity to evaluate the efficacy of LSMPAs. The offshore Palau National Marine Sanctuary (PNMS) necessitated the Republic of Palau to develop its offshore research ability aimed at supporting science-based management. Owing to Palau's important tuna fishery, investigating tuna reproductive biology in the PNMS was prioritized as a first step in evaluating the protective significance of the PNMS for tuna. Aims. The aim of this study was to develop a useful and practical platform to conduct large scale ocean research within the context of SIDS. Methods. A platform to conduct offshore research was developed. Reproductive histology and the presence and abundance of larvae were used to investigate tuna reproductive biology in the PNMS. Key results. Most tunas sampled were mature, with 3 of the 59 sampled fish actively spawning. Twenty-two tuna larvae were collected across five offshore sites, and modeling results suggest larvae originated from these sites. Conclusions. Findings suggest tuna spawn, to some extent, within the PNMS, and the PNMS provides local protection to tuna populations during this time. A research platform with five steps for developing, undertaking and understanding offshore research in SIDS was developed. Challenges and tips experienced are also detailed. Implications.

It is based on the model of the French Breeding Bird Survey (STOC-EPS), the protocol of which has been only slightly modified to adapt to regional constraints and to the biology of species of these tropical regions. STOC-EPS consists of standardized point counts with unlimited distance, performed each year at the same locations and at the same date within the breeding season by the same observer (JULLIARD & JIGUET, 2002). 5 minutes duration, which is the standard for all European monitoring programs (EBCC 2014), was selected for our three overseas departments. In French Guiana, two counting periods were retained in order to complain with asynchronous breeding seasons between species: 1st March - 15 April, and 1st November - 15 December. The time slot used is from 06:30 to 09:00. In Martinique two sessions are performed during the single breeding season, between 1st April and 20 June, with a gap of 4 to 6 weeks between the two sessions. The counting begins once daylight permits, and finishes no later than 09:30. In Reunion, a single annual session is planned, from 1st October to 15 November. The period of counting is between 30 minutes after sunrise and 3.5 hours after sunrise. In metropolitan France, a STOC station consists of 10 permanent points arranged within a 2 × 2 km randomly chosen plot (JULLIARD & JIGUET, 2002). This strategy is inapplicable in our territories where many places are inaccessible, where observers are unevenly distributed or whose mosaic of habitats requires a more targeted approach. Different sampling methods have been adopted in each of the three overseas departments. All of them are based on 10-points routes assigned to each observer. In Reunion, 620 count points were defined to cover the entire island and have been pre-positioned on a map, according to the principle of stratified sampling: number of points per habitat proportional to the total area occupied by this habitat. In Martinique, we prioritized protected sites or sites classified as ZNIEFF (important nature areas), but the final choice is left to the observers, who most often choose sites close to their home. Classified sites, nature reserves or other protected sites are covered by partner organizations. The diversity of habitats in Martinique is properly reflected by the 42 currently existing routes. In French Guiana, the observer can choose his route. The number of routes is not limited and is intended to increase with time and by recruitment of new observers. Their distribution is heterogeneous, according to the distribution of observers and to access difficulties of parts of the country; however they are representative of the habitat diversity. The minimum distance between points varies from a minimum 200m in dense forest habitats to 300m or more in open habitats. In the course of designing the STOC-EPS protocol in our three departments, a supporting and validation mission was performed by the Muséum National d'Histoire naturelle (MNHN), which is the inventor and the coordinator of the French Breeding Bird Survey (JULLIARD & JIGUET, 2002). This validation by a scientific body whose expertise in this field is unquestionable and internationally recognized, is a strong aspect of the process, which guarantees scientific legitimacy to the results that will eventually be produced by the STOC-EPS in our regions. To compensate for the lack of skilled ornithologists in the DOMs and to cover remote areas, it was necessary to resort to partner organizations acting in the field of conservation (43% to 65% of the observers). Whether from partner or volunteer structures, on average 75% of the observers initially had little or no experience with bird watching. They had to be trained and accompanied in the early years. In addition, each participant was given educational materials such as a sound bank, audio-CDs, training software or recording tools. The first STOC-EPS campaigns have been set up and the first surveys were conducted in French Guiana, Martinique and Reunion at the end of 2012. In French Guiana, the network expands regularly, 40 routes are operational in 2015 and 11 others are defined but have not yet been operated. In Reunion, 61 routes (of the 62 defined) were performed in 2013. In Martinique, the network included 43 routes in 2014 and 10 more in 2015, operated by 34 observers, which demonstrates the interest in the program and the involvement of its participants. The few examples of analyses from the raw data of STOC-EPS in Reunion (Fig. 1, 2 and 3) show that this type of survey can provide interesting results from the first years on, regardless of the time factor. Following Reunion, Martinique and French Guiana, a few other territories have recently begun to deploy breeding bird surveys, based on the STOCEPS model. In the Indian Ocean, Mauritius and Rodrigues both engaged in the STOC-EPS program in 2014; STOC-EPS also started in Mayotte in 2007, however it is there performed until now by a unique observer, which makes the long-term survival of the program precarious. In Lesser Antilles, Guadeloupe, another French overseas department, engaged in the program in 2014 (association AMAZONA, http://www.amazona-guadeloupe.com/actionsen-cours.htm\). And in the Pacific Ocean, New Caledonia, a special French overseas territory, deployed a similar long-term survey of terrestrial birds (STOT: ""Suivi Temporel des Oiseaux Terrestres"") since 2010 (BABY, 2014; SANCHEZ, 2014). It is hoped that other islands of the Caribbean and other Neotropical countries will implement similar long-term and country-wide programs for large scale monitoring of bird populations.",,273-284,,4,83,,Alauda,Un programme de suivi des oiseaux communs pour les départements d'outre-mer: Adaptations du protocole stoc-eps aux environnements tropicaux,,,,,,,French,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Societe d'Etudes Ornithologiques,,,,adaptive management; Aves; biodiversity; biological survey; biomonitoring; bird; breeding population; breeding season; Common bird survey; France; French Guiana; guideline; habitat structure; Indian Ocean; Lesser antilles; Martinique; Martinique island; Mascarene Islands; Neotropical Region; Neotropics French Guiana; Point counts; protected area; research program; Reunion; Reunion Island; software; territoriality; tropical environment; Windward Islands [Lesser Antilles],,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Ecologically or Biologically Significant Marine Areas' (EBSAs) in need of protection in open-ocean and deep-sea habitats. To date, expert opinion collated during regional workshops has been the main method to identify regional EBSAs. In this paper, we propose a new method that could complement this process by adding more objective and transparent analyses. There are four main steps: 1) identify the area to be examined, 2) determine appropriate datasets and thresholds to use in the evaluation, 3) evaluate data for each area/habitat against a set of criteria, and 4) identify and assess candidate EBSAs. The method can be applied to any habitat, but offshore seamounts were chosen as a test habitat to develop and evaluate it. Several options for various combinations of criteria are presented, with one being proposed as the most appropriate to identify a tractable number of seamounts that satisfied the EBSA criteria and which could be combined into larger areas that represent meaningful ecological and practicable management units. This option selects seamounts that meet any one of the 5 ""biological"" criteria (i.e. unique/rare, diverse, productive, threatened species, critical habitat) and which contain environmental features that are vulnerable to human activities but not yet significantly impacted by them. This selection process resulted in 83 seamounts being identified from over 3000 evaluated in the South Pacific Ocean. The priority seamounts group into 10 areas, consisting of 5 clusters of seamounts, and 5 individual seamounts. The primary strength of the method is the adoption of a transparent, and logically sequential, selection process that is conceptually transferrable to other habitat types and regions beyond our model system. We contend that in a global EBSA context it can be a useful tool to assist deep-sea management. © 2014 The Authors.",,65-79,,,91,,Ocean Coast.

They can host vulnerable benthic communities, which can be rapidly and severely impacted by human activities. There have been recent calls to establish networks of marine protected areas on the High Seas, including seamounts. However, there is little biological information on the benthic communities on seamounts, and this has limited the ability of scientists to inform managers about seamounts that should be protected as part of a network. In this paper we present a seamount classification based on ""biologically meaningful"" physical variables for which global-scale data are available. The approach involves the use of a general biogeographic classification for the bathyal depth zone (near-surface to 3500 m), and then uses four key environmental variables (overlying export production, summit depth, oxygen levels, and seamount proximity) to group seamounts with similar characteristics. This procedure is done in a simple hierarchical manner, which results in 194 seamount classes throughout the worlds oceans. The method was compared against a multivariate approach, and ground-truthed against octocoral data for the North Atlantic. We believe it gives biologically realistic groupings, in a transparent process that can be used to either directly select, or aid selection of, seamounts to be protected. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,19-36,,1,54,,Ocean Coast.

MPAs are most commonly designated for biological conservation objectives and the management is thus focused primarily on meeting conservation goals, with associated monitoring programs gathering data on a narrow suite of biological indicators. However, MPAs also have a wide range of potential social and economic impacts and the ability to meet the goals of an MPA is highly influenced by the often unmonitored perceptions and buy-in of local stakeholders. Here we examine a range of stakeholder perceptions concerning a coastal MPA in South Australia. We conducted semi-structured interviews with individuals engaged in the MPA's planning and designation process, as well as those involved with its ongoing management. We explored their understanding of the purpose of the MPA, whether they thought the MPA was successful and the future management challenges the MPA might face. In particular, we focused on eliciting from stakeholders indicators they thought should be used to monitor the ongoing performance of the MPA. Perceptions varied between stakeholder groups, however, the majority of respondents highlighted the importance of socioeconomic factors in the ongoing performance of the MPA. The vast majority of them suggested both biological and socio-economic indicators that should be incorporated into monitoring programs. Our findings highlight the need for MPA planning and management, when defining goals and developing monitoring programs, to be mindful to incorporate social and economic, as well as, biological indicators. © Coastal Education and Research Foundation, Inc. 2016.",,622-626,,,1,,J.

Although this fishing activity is common in northern European Natura 2000 sites such impacts may be incompatible with conservation objectives for designated habitats and species within these sites. In 2009-2010 a spatially nested control-impact study was undertaken before (t0), 8-9 days after (t1) and 4 months (t2) following dredging and extraction of 108 tonnes of cockles from a standing stock of 2158 tonnes in Dundalk Bay. This study failed to detect significant effects on benthic sediments, or the overall community structure. However, a fishing effect on the target species C. edule in one sampling area and a short lived effect on the bivalve Angulus tenuis were identified. Significant spatial and temporal variability in abundance of species and taxonomic groups, unrelated to fishing effects, was observed. Previous studies on the effects of fisheries on marine intertidal benthos have reported variable results, related to study design and objectives and the physical characteristics of the study site. Site specific studies, relative to the intensity and frequency of proposed fishing activity, may be required to adequately inform managers whether such activities are compatible with specific conservation objectives for Natura 2000 sites.

Ditches occur across the agricultural landscape but in particular, those associated with coastal and floodplain grazing marsh, have high conservation value. The importance of this habitat for rare and threatened species afforded priority status under the UK Biodiversity Action Plan is explored. The characteristics of ditches that have high conservation value are described and a set of targets against which such ditches can be assessed are presented. An analysis of the current condition of Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) for the wider coastal and floodplain grazing marsh habitat demonstrates the range of pressures affecting these sites and highlights that alongside generic freshwater issues such as eutrophication and non-native species, these sites have a unique set of pressures associated with their ongoing management and the vulnerable location of many sites at the coast. Wider conservation strategies for freshwater biodiversity in lowland landscapes across Europe need to factor in the different management requirements of artificial habitats such as ditches alongside more ambitious restoration projects for natural waterbodies. In low lying coastal areas the threat of coastal squeeze for many important grazing marshes will require a strategic approach to allow upstream migration of important biodiversity. © 2014 Elsevier GmbH.",,93-100,,C,24,,J.

The components of a species' habitat vary with the spatial resolution of the area considered. We characterized areas at two resolutions: 250 m2 (transect) and approximately 30,000 m2 (seascape). We considered three categories of environmental variables: substrate type, bottom complexity, and depth. We sought to determine at which resolution habitat characteristics were a better predictor of abundance and species composition of fishes and whether the relations with environmental variables at either resolution affected species' responses to protection. Habitat features accounted for a larger proportion of spatial variation in species composition and abundances than differences in protection status. This spatial variation was explained best by habitat characteristics at the seascape level than at the transect level. Species' responses to protected areas were specific to particular seascape characteristics, primarily depth, and bottom complexity. Our method may be useful for prioritizing marine areas for protection, designing MPAs, and monitoring their effectiveness. It identified areas that provided natural shelter, areas acting as buffer zones, and areas where fish species were most responsive to protection.

In this context, marine protected areas (MPAs) and artificial reefs (ARs) are increasingly regarded as interesting management measures, in that they contribute to ecosystem conservation, fisheries sustainability, and because they can be helpful in zoning coastal areas in order to reduce conflicts between users. Beyond these expected benefits, it is important to appraise whether MPAs and ARs meet managers' objectives. This review focuses on the interaction between ecological sciences and management in the purpose of establishing or monitoring MPAs and ARs. We first study how objectives have to be formalized through management plans, and which kinds of information need to be collected in this respect.

Assessment of their performance with respect to management objectives is therefore important. A number of MPAs provided conservation benefits for fished species. Observed benefits do not apply to all species at all times, and responses to protection are also highly variable among fish taxa. Among the many empirical studies on marine reserves, only a few designs considered 'before and after data' and spatial variation. In this paper, we are interested in assessing the effect of a no-take reserve on the reef fish assemblage in a northwestern Mediterranean example. Data were obtained from a three-year survey using underwater visual censuses (UVC), before and after MPA establishment. Permutational multivariate analysis of variance (PERMANOVA) and multivariate regression trees (MRT) were used to evaluate the effects of reserve protection on the reef fish assemblage, while accounting for habitat. Modelled biological responses were abundances and diversity indices calculated at different levels of the assemblage. Significant effects were found for many of these metrics. In addition to PERMANOVA, univariate models provided more insight into the magnitude and direction of effects. The most sensitive metrics were related to large species and species targeted by fishing. These results may be used to choose the metrics that are more suitable as community-based indicators of MPA impact in the perspective of monitoring programs. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

The use of experimental design and statistical analysis to evaluate the effects of marine protected areas (MPAs) is increasingly popular throughout the world. 2. However, in looking at historical approaches to MPA evaluations, flaws were identified in the execution of theoretically correct designs, as well as disconnects between the stated objectives of MPAs and those of assessment studies. 3. MPA assessments can be improved by: (1) considering the enforcement/compliance level; (2) linking explicitly the choice of indicator(s) to the MPA objectives; (3) accounting for habitat structure; (4) taking into account the age and size of the MPA; and (5) quantifying the fishing pressure outside the MPA (including possible displacement effects). 4. Neglecting social factors, using inappropriate indicators, and/or ignoring relevant covariates, carries the risk of having MPAs dismissed as an effective management tool.

However, temporal variability in connectivity is rarely considered as a criterion in designing and evaluating marine conservation planning. In this study, indicators were defined to characterise the temporal variability in occurrence, flux, and frequency of connectivity in a northwestern Mediterranean Sea area. Indicators were tested on semi-theoretically-estimated connections provided by the runs of a passive particle transport model in a climatological year and in three years between 2006–2020, showing large deviation from the climatological year. The indicators allowed comparing the temporal variability in connectivity of four zones, highlighted differences in connectivity due to their locations and the mesoscale hydrodynamics, and identified areas that require further investigation. The three indicators also showed that the temporal variability in connectivity was influenced by the duration and depth of particle transport, although no consistent pattern was observed in the indicator variations of the compared zones. Provided that specific objectives will be given when parameterising transport models (i.e., selection of focus species and time period), indicators of temporal variability in connectivity have potential to support spatial conservation planning, prioritise the protection of marine resources, and measure the effectiveness of Marine Protected Areas, in line with a long-term vision of ocean management.

This study, however, presents the first comprehensive assessment of marine fish biodiversity along the coast of two regions in Cambodia using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding methods. Water samples were collected above coral reefs, seagrass meadows, estuarine sites and open water in the Northern Koh Kong region and the Koh Rong Archipelago, a marine national park. A region of the 12S rDNA was targeted for fish diversity. Additionally, for the detection of marine mammals, 16S ribosomal DNA was amplified. A total of 204 unique fish species were identified across 78 families and 17 orders, revealing significant differences in species richness and community composition across different habitat types and sampling locations. Functional diversity analyses categorized species into 18 distinct functional groups, shedding light on their ecological roles within the investigated habitats. Comparison with existing fish surveys and databases highlighted the effectiveness of eDNA metabarcoding in providing comparable or better biodiversity estimates. The study also identified two marine mammal species, including the endangered Irrawaddy dolphin, emphasizing the importance of eDNA in detecting elusive and threatened species. The study highlights the effectiveness of eDNA metabarcoding for marine biodiversity monitoring, offering valuable baseline data for conservation efforts in Cambodia and beyond, supporting the creation of marine protected areas (MPAs) to safeguard marine biodiversity. Advocating for the designation of Koh Kong as an MPA, the research points to its rich biodiversity, endangered species presence, and unique functional composition, suggesting its potential as a focal point for conservation initiatives. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to International Coral Reef Society (ICRS) 2024.",,,,,,,Coral Reefs,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Nature,,,,Cambodia; eDNA metabarcoding; Functional diversity; Marine fish diversity,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Recently, advances in tracking technology and habitat modelling have enabled the production of large-scale species distribution models (SDM), which provide the basis for hotspot mapping. In the UK, hotspot mapping to inform seabird MPA identification has involved converting observed or predicted distributions to polygons using either Maximum Curvature or Getis-Ord (Gi*) analysis. Here, we apply both mapping techniques to UK-wide, breeding season SDM predictions for four seabird species (Black-legged Kittiwakes Rissa tridactyla, Common Guillemots Uria aalge, Razorbills Alca torda and European Shags Phalacrocorax aristotelis) in order to compare their performance and inform seabird MPA. When using Maximum Curvature, grid cells within the identified maximum curvature boundaries were defined as hotspots. For Getis-Ord analysis, we defined hotspots as either (1) grid cells containing the top 1% or (2) the top 5% Gi* scores or (3) cells in which Gi* scores were statistically significant. Hotspots based upon Maximum Curvature or statistically significant Gi* scores covered the greatest area and were generally larger than current marine Special Protection Areas. Hotspots based on the top 1% or top 5% of Gi* scores were smaller and were concentrated around the largest breeding colonies. All hotspot methods consistently identified several high-density areas that should be prioritised for seabird conservation. Ultimately, the choice of hotspot identification method should be informed by considering species ecology alongside conservation goals to ensure hotspots are of sufficient size to protect target populations. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,241,,Biol.

Dugongs (Dugong dugon) were not an explicit target in the design of the network of MPAs in New Caledonia, despite being one of the region's World Heritage values. Our study retrospectively assessed the capacity of the New Caledonia MPA network to protect dugongs from anthropogenic threats. We developed a spatially explicit model of dugong distribution and relative density based on information collected from ~10. years of aerial surveys. We quantified the amount of overlap between areas supporting high densities of dugongs and MPAs. We found that most of the important dugong habitats of New Caledonia had a low coverage of MPAs that provide high levels of restriction on anthropogenic activities. We identified several important dugong habitats along the west and the north-east coast that were not covered by MPAs and should be a priority for future management. The spatial mismatch between MPAs and dugongs was likely caused by weaknesses in the planning process, including the: (1) lack of explicit conservation goals and targets; (2) omission of spatial information on species' distribution; (3) mismatch of spatial scales; (4) cost considerations; and (5) incorrect application of the IUCN protected area categories.

This decline is frequently attributed to fishing mortality, which increases in areas closer to humans and outside marine reserves. Although it is difficult to disentangle the effects of fishing mortality from other anthropogenic pressures on sharks, comparing shark abundance and diversity in jurisdictions with near zero fishing mortality versus prevalent shark fishing can demonstrate the role of overfishing. We used baited remote underwater video systems to compare shark abundance and diversity on coral reefs in 2 Caribbean nations with contrasting levels of shark exploitation: Belize (shark fishing) and The Bahamas (shark sanctuary). The abundance of targeted shark species and diversity were significantly higher in The Bahamas than in Belize. Caribbean reef and nurse shark abundance in Belize were best predicted by fishing-related factors (marine reserves, market gravity, their interaction). In The Bahamas, abiotic factors (depth, sea surface temperature) best predicted nurse shark abundance, while depth, market gravity, and its interaction with marine reserves predicted Caribbean reef shark abundance. These results indicate that fishing mortality reduces shark abundance and diversity in Belize, while lower fishing mortality in The Bahamas has greatly reduced but not eliminated human impacts on sharks. Future work should elucidate the indirect effects of humans to develop holistic shark conservation plans. We suggest minimizing shark fishing through multinational management plans to improve shark abundance and diversity, especially on reefs near densely populated areas. © Inter-Research 2021.",,175-186,,,661,,Mar.

However, many MPAs in Fiji and the South Pacific are relatively small (?1 km 2), and few data exist regarding the effects of these MPAs on populations of exploited species. We used hook-and-line fishing surveys to assess whether 4 relatively small (<1 km 2) community-based MPAs in Fiji (3 current, 1 former) were providing any commonly sought benefits to exploited reef-fish stocks. All of the MPAs had maintained no-take status for over 4 yr, although the former MPA was opened to fishing 4 mo before this study. The current MPAs exhibited significantly greater catch and biomass per unit effort, individual fish biomass, and/or percentage of reproductive-size fish than paired, adjacent fished areas, while this was not the case with the former MPA. Sites with intact MPAs also exhibited greater catch diversity than the former MPA site. Additionally, tag and recapture data from the 17 recaptured of 2650 tagged fish suggest site fidelity of these fishes, although fishes initially captured in the MPA at all 4 sites were later caught in fished areas, indicating that there is movement of fishes from the MPAs to fished areas. While the combination of these findings supports the utility of even relatively small MPAs as effective tools for the conservation of certain target species, it also suggests that MPA benefits may be quickly depleted and that even closures of extended duration may be insufficient for long-term fisheries management if the MPAs are not maintained. © 2012 Inter-Research.",,233-243,,,449,,Mar.

However, in locations that are desirable for agriculture, industry, or human habitation (e.g., lowland habitats on fertile soils, coastal zones), land is often privately owned and state-owned PAs tend to be under-represented. Despite the potentially disproportionate contribution that privately protected areas (PPAs) could make to representing biodiversity and supporting its persistence across regional PA estates, this contribution is poorly understood. We assessed the capacity of PPAs to contribute to the persistence of 38 large- and medium-sized mammals in the Cape Floristic Region, South Africa, based on a previously published conservation plan that used species population requirements to identify areas of importance for mammal conservation. We hypothesized that, relative to state-owned PAs, PPAs would be disproportionately located in areas important to the regional persistence of the mammal assemblage, given: (a) historic biases in the distribution of private- and state-owned land across high and low productivity landscapes, respectively; (b) private landholders’ recent focus on wildlife-orientated enterprises; and (c) the conservation trade-offs influencing expansions of the state-owned PA estate. As a result of the high numbers of PPAs and their bias towards areas of importance for mammal conservation, the potential mammal species diversity and richness that could persist within a PA increased more rapidly with PA size on PPAs than on state-owned PAs. These PPAs therefore have the potential to significantly increase both the regional-scale diversity of protected mammals and the number of viable populations. Furthermore, PPAs could make the greatest absolute contribution to the conservation of protected species when adjoining, and thus expanding, state-owned PAs (i.e., mixed-ownership PAs). Regional conservation targets for a quarter of the species were only met due to the inclusion of private- and/or mixed-ownership PAs in the estate. Policy implications. Our findings show that privately protected areas (PPAs) could play a substantial role in the long-term conservation of terrestrial megafauna within a multi-tenure protected area (PA) estate, due to their prevalence in high-productivity landscapes. The significant gains from augmenting state-owned PAs with PPAs emphasize the value of systematic conservation planning and implementation across tenure types. © 2018 The Authors.

Beam trawling has affected macrobenthic assemblages for centuries, especially the fragile and long-lived species. Due to the prohibition of bean trawling in many OWFs, opportunities are being provided to investigate the potential recovery of vulnerable species and the creation of de-facto Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). The soft-substrate macrobenthic community was investigated from 2008 to 2012, before and after the construction of an OWF in the Belgian part of the North Sea, situated on the Bligh Bank. The fishery enclosed area (±21 km2) within the OWF (No Fishery area) was compared with a surrounding control area (±30 km2) where regular fishing activities were registered through vessel monitoring system (VMS) data throughout the period 2010-2011. Three years after the exclusion of beam trawl fisheries, subtle changes within the macrobenthic community were observed in the No Fishery area. The benthic mysid shrimp Gastrosaccus spinifer (30 ± 15 ind m-2), tube-building polychaetes Terebellidae sp. (196 ± 151 ind m-2) and the echinoderm Echinocyamus pusillus (73 ± 71 ind m-2), sensitive to trawling activities, showed increased abundances within the No Fishery area. With an expansion of the wind farm concession area to 238 km2 in the future, the likely increase of dense Terebellidae patches (e.g., Lanice conchilega reefs) within the No Fishery area could create an ecological important large-scale refugium for higher trophic levels. This study creates a baseline for the evaluation of long-term changes due to the fishing impacts and effects related to the presence of OWFs and highlights the importance of executing long-term monitoring programs in combination with targeted research. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.",,131-138,,,179,,Fish.

This is reflected in, for example, targets set by the World Summit on Sustainable Development Plan of Implementation (2002) and the Vth IUCN World Parks Congress in 2003. The simple logic behind MPAs is straightforward and is supported by evidence from the crucial contribution of protected areas to terrestrial conservation. For marine protected areas, there is also good evidence that they frequently lead to higher densities, biomass, mean size of organisms and diversity of species within their boundaries, but that factors such as species composition, fishing intensity outside the reserve and others do influence this general result. While MPAs have also been found to have some benefits for fisheries performance beyond their boundaries, results have been mixed and the potential role of MPAs in this regard, in comparison to other management tools, will need to be carefully evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The human aspects of MPA performance have also been widely studied. A cause for concern is the high number of MPAs that have been found to be largely unsuccessful or ineffective, particularly but not exclusively in developing countries. Valuable lessons on the social and economic causes of successes and failures are being learned and it is essential that these are considered and applied as countries attempt to meet internationally agreed targets at local, national and international levels. FAO Member States have requested that the Organization develop technical guidelines on the design, implementation and testing of MPAs. Development of those guidelines is currently underway and will be building on the best available knowledge on fisheries science and management and the role and requirements of MPAs, with particular emphasis on their potential contribution to fisheries management.",,701-738,,,11,,,,,,,,Martinus Nijhoff Publishers,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Cent.

Following a change in federal government, the system underwent two major revisions: an independent review released in 2015, and a final plan designed by the Director of National Parks implemented in 2018. We used all three iterations of the NRSMPA, from 2012 to 2018, to compare: 1. the MPA zoning composition, using IUCN protected area categories; 2. the achievement of goals for representing biophysical features; and 3. the potential to mitigate threats to biodiversity from commercial fishing and offshore petroleum extraction. We found that protection levels in the NRSMPA were downgraded in 2018, compared to 2012 and 2015 iterations. Although each iteration met its qualitative goals, the lack of quantitative goals meant that representation of biophysical features was highly uneven and dominated by MPAs offering little protection against the impacts of extractive uses. Moreover, existing areas with value for pelagic longlining, demersal trawling, and offshore petroleum extraction were largely avoided by MPAs, irrespective of their biophysical features. MPAs, especially those with high protection, resulted in little forgone fisheries catch and revenue, likely providing few safeguards for species threatened by fishing.

By collecting qualitative data through interviews and ethnographic observations from different constituencies in May and June 2018, the Marine Protected Area Governance (MPAG) analysis framework was applied. This case study revealed that the site is governed by a parastatal organisation (SNPA) and its Board through a largely ineffective top-down, government-led approach. The primary threats to the success of the park that fall within the purview of MPA (marine protected area) governance, are poaching, coastal development and unsustainable tourism, with a clear lack of state capacity, political will and capacity for enforcement as the key drivers undermining equitable and effective governance. Additionally, the study revealed a lack of community involvement in decision-making processes, resulting in a lack of sufficient participation and knowledge incentives, which reflects the need for the inclusion of more bottom-up governance approaches. This study contributes to the broader conceptual framework by supporting the understanding that a combination of governance approaches are needed to achieve MPA objectives and resilience. The governance structure coupled with the identified conflicts and many additional driving forces and constraints discussed throughout, are obstructing the achievement of strategic MPA objectives and severely undermining effectiveness. Suggestions for improvement are therefore explored as significant governance modifications are clearly needed. Since the completion of this research, significant advances have been made to the governance of SAMNP and where relevant these have been noted briefly throughout the paper. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,127,,Mar.

This study aimed to determine whether the presence of water hyacinth altered the diversity and assemblage structure of benthic macroinvertebrates in a conservation area. The benthic macroinvertebrate assemblage was sampled over 1 year at five sites under water hyacinth mats and at five sites without water hyacinth at Lake Nsezi-Nseleni River in the vicinity of Richards Bay, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Artificial substrates were placed beneath water hyacinth mats or in the open water to allow for colonization by freshwater macroinvertebrates, and left for a period of 6 weeks, repeated on seven occasions. Twenty nine families comprising 18,797 individuals were collected, 817 (13 families) individuals were from under water hyacinth mat sites compared to 17,980 (27 families) individuals from open water sites. Ninety-eight percent of individuals collected were, however, the invasive snail, Tarebia granifera. Open water samples were separated from samples beneath the water hyacinth mat by non-metric Multidimensional Scaling, indicating reduced biodiversity associated with the presence of water hyacinth. Exclusion of the dominant Thiaridae from the analysis did not alter the groupings. Family richness(s) and abundance (N) were significantly higher in open water communities(S: H3 = 21.09; P = 0.0001; N: H3 = 22.58; P = 0.00001), while evenness (J') was higher under water hyacinth mats (H3 = 20.13; P = 0.0002).

At the same time, there is a great need to develop more effectively some substantive scientific methods to empower EBM. Marine habitat mapping (MHM) is an example of an applied set of field methods that support EBM directly and contribute essential elements for conducting integrated ecosystem assessments. This manuscript places MHM practices in context with biodiversity models and EBM. We build the case for MHM being incorporated as an explicit and early process following initial goal-setting within larger EBM programmes. Advances in MHM and EBM are dependent on evolving technological and modelling capabilities, conservation targets, and policy priorities within a spatial planning framework. In both cases, the evolving and adaptive nature of these sciences requires explicit spatial parameters, clear objectives, combinations of social and scientific considerations, and multiple parameters to assess overlapping viewpoints and ecosystem functions. To examine the commonalities between MHM and EBM, we also address issues of implicit and explicit linkages between classification, mapping, and elements of biodiversity with management goals. Policy objectives such as sustainability, ecosystem health, or the design of marine protected areas are also placed in the combined MHM-EBM context. © 2009 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.

Temporal, non-permanent, rotational or periodically harvested area closures have been employed across the Indo. -Pacific for centuries and are a common measure within contemporary community-based and co-management frameworks. Although prior evidence suggests that periodic closures may confer fisheries benefits for some taxa or in certain conditions, there is little evidence that they are equally effective for the sustainable management of the many types of small-scale fisheries important in the Indo-Pacific. Case studies of periodic closures are reviewed to highlight the variations in target species, harvesting periodicity and fishing pressure that will influence the fisheries management effectiveness of this tool. Fisheries management benefits are observed for short-lived, fast-growing taxa or for a range of taxa in low fishing pressure situations. Stocks declines are observed for long-lived taxa or for a range of taxa if harvesting is intense. It is argued that community-based and co-management policy and action must better account for these factors when promoting and implementing periodic closures for medium- to long-term fisheries management or conservation goals. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,278-287,,1,37,,Mar.

Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous in the sea and easily enter food webs. Xyrichtys novacula L. is one of the main target species of recreational fishing in the Balearic Islands, Spain. In the present study, the quantity of MPs in gastrointestinal tracts of X. novacula from two different areas (a marine protected area (MPA) and a non-protected area) of Eivissa Island (in the Balearic archipelago) has been assessed, as well as MPs evaluation within the sediment of both areas. The results showed that over 80% of sampled individuals had MPs in their gut with an average of 3.9 ± 4.3 plastic items/individual. Eighty percent of these plastics were fibres, while the rest were fragments. Although the sediment of the non-protected area had a significant higher presence of MPs, no significant differences in the number of MPs were observed in X. novacula from both areas. The µ-FT-IR analysis showed that the main polymers in the sediments were polycarbonate (PC) and polypropylene (PP), whereas in the digestive tract of fish PC, PP, polyethylene, polystyrene and polyester. In conclusion, practically all X. novacula specimens presented MPs in their digestive tract regardless if the capture zone was in a MPAs or not. These results highlight the ubiquity of MPs in coastal marine areas, and further studies might be necessary to evaluate further implications of MP presence in this species. © 2022, The Author(s).",,65077-65087,,43,29,,Environ.

Wildlife passes have been used to reduce fragmentation by mitigating the effects of roads as barriers to animal movement. However, direct observations of animals crossing roads are extremely rare and thus indirect methods are necessary to locate crossings. Yet, current methods fail to incorporate the animals' movement behavior and thus have little predictive power. Based on the principles of resource selection functions and state-space modeling, we developed a Bayesian movement model applied to radio-telemetry and GPS data to infer the movement behavior of jaguars Panthera onca as a response to vegetation, roads and human population density in the Mayan Forests of Mexico and Guatemala. We used the results of the model to simulate jaguars moving along a road that bisects the major reserve system in the area. The aim of the simulations was to identify suitable locations for wildlife passes. We found that jaguars move preferentially to undisturbed forests and that females avoid moving close to roads and to areas with even low levels of human occupation. Males also avoid roads, but to a lesser degree, and appear undisturbed by human population density. Simulations reflected these differences: potential crossing sites for females are limited to a strip of a few kilometers, whereas males are able to cross at many different sites. Still, we identified a 1km strip along the road where the likelihood of crossing for both sexes is highest, ideal for the construction of a wildlife pass. Our study contributes to the ecology of one of the world's least-studied large carnivores and provides a modeling framework that greatly improves the location of wildlife passes. Moreover, our approach can greatly advance region-wide conservation plans for the location of corridors and conservation units. © 2010 The Authors.

We recommend a GLMM-based analysis workflow that allows the user to (1) employ selection of distributional forms (Poisson vs negative binomial) and zero-inflation (ZIP and ZINB, respectively) using AIC and variance-mean plots, (2) examine models for goodness-of-fit using simulated residual diagnostics, (3) interpret model results via easy to understand outputs of changes in predicted responses, and (4) compare the magnitude of predictor variable effects via effects plots. Our package uses a series of easy-to-use functions that can accept both wide- and long-form multi-taxa count data without the need for programming experience. To demonstrate the utility of this approach, we use our package to model acoustic bat activity data relative to multiple landscape characteristics in a protected area (Grand Teton National Park), which is threatened by encroaching disease—white nose syndrome. Global threats to bat conservation such as disease and deforestation have prompted extensive research to better understand bat ecology. Notwithstanding these efforts, managers operating on lands crucial to the persistence of bat populations are often equipped with too little information regarding local bat activity to make informed land-management decisions. In our case study in the Tetons, we found that an increased prevalence of porous buildings increases activity levels of Eptesicus fuscus and Myotis volans; Myotis lucifugus activity decreases as distance to water increases; and Myotis volans activity increases with the amount of forested area. By using GLMMs in tandem with ‘EcoCountHelper’, managers without advanced programmatic or statistical expertise can assess the effects of landscape characteristics on wildlife in a statistically-robust framework.

Using the fauna associated with a bioengineer, the intertidal mussel Perna perna, we tested hypotheses about the relative importance of larval export from protected populations in marine reserves. Harvesting led to the replacement of P. perna and the domination of shores outside reserves by turf-forming coralline algae, mostly Corallina spp. We determined whether the diverse fauna recruiting onto artificial units of habitat placed within mussel beds differed between reserves and non-reserve areas or whether shores outside reserves, and open to harvesting, received recruits through larval export from reserves. Furthermore, we determined whether this was affected by the distance away from reserves and whether colonisation was achieved by movement of adults from surrounding biogenic habitats or via the plankton. Overall, we found no effect of increasing distance away from a reserve on the cover of adult mussels or associated fauna. We found strong effects of the presence of marine reserves on abundances of molluscs and polychaetes but not crustaceans. There were greater densities of molluscs in sites with a reserve (i.e. inside reserves, and up to 5. km outside reserve boundaries), but more polychaetes in exploited sites. For molluscs, this pattern was driven by gastropods rather than bivalves. Furthermore, although reserves had greater cover of adult mussels than non-reserve areas, recruitment of mussels was not greater inside or near to reserves. Our study illustrates the effectiveness of these reserves in protecting stocks of adult mussels, and although there was no evidence that reserves provided export of the larvae of mussels (the target species), they did provide larval export of non-targeted associated species. By protecting a harvested bioengineer and through export of the larvae of its associated fauna, these reserves fulfil some, but not all the conservation aims of a marine protected area. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,2088-2096,,8,144,,Biol.

Given that trophic interactions underpin community responses following protection and that complex ecological interactions make responses difficult to identify, quantifying changes in species traits may provide detail missed by traditional diversity measures, including information relevant to ecosystem functioning. We determine whether this is the case by comparing community metrics based on functional traits to taxonomic diversity measures associated with 'no take' marine reserves and partially protected, fished areas along eight degrees of latitude. Location: Eighteen 'no take' marine reserves and 14 partially protected, fished areas along the east coast of Australia. Method: We use two independent datasets from shallow and deep coastal rocky reefs to analyse trait-based metrics and taxonomic diversity from sites inside reserves to sites in partially protected, fished areas. Results: Taxonomic diversity (species diversity and richness) and trait-based multimetrics (functional richness and dispersion) showed no difference with level of protection. Total fish abundance responded positively to protection, but only on shallow reefs. Comparing values of individual functional traits implied a return of larger bodied species of fish in protected areas and an increase in trophic level. The latter was significant on deeper reefs and was strongly correlated with age of protected area. Thus, recovery responses were largely associated with community mean functional trait values, highlighting the value of trait-based approaches for detecting change, when no differences in traditional taxonomic diversity measures were apparent. Main conclusions: We empirically demonstrate that functional traits can elucidate early conservation outcomes, when traditional multimetric diversity indices do not distinguish protected and fished communities. Ecologically relevant but sensitive metrics are fundamental to allow information to be incorporated into adaptive management strategies, which often occur on political rather than biological time-scales. © 2015 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,876-887,,8,21,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,abundance; adaptive management; AREAS; Australia; community response; Conservation; conservation management; data set; diversity index; ecosystem function; effective population size; effectiveness; Effectiveness; fish; Fish; FISHES; fishing; functional morphology; marine reserve; Marine reserve; protected area; protected areas; Protected areas; reef; taxonomy; trophic interaction,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

To help address this, networks of no take marine reserves are being promoted as a means of conserving biodiversity and managing coastal resources. Many studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of individual marine reserves and metaanalyses have shown that marine reserves provide positive outcomes for marine conservation. Few studies, however, have examined the effects of marine reserves with different levels of protection or examined shallow subtidal areas (1-3. m depth). Here, we examine changes within a network of ""no take"" marine reserves relative to partially protected ""take"" areas after 5. years of operation. We also examine similar open areas outside the boundaries of the marine reserve network. We show that some targeted species including red morwong (. Cheilodactylus fuscus) and abalone (. Haliotis rubra) were more abundant in marine reserves than elsewhere. Fish assemblages inside the marine reserve network differed from those outside the boundaries of the reserve network. This result was driven by habitat differences; abundant, schooling species of fish were more commonly encountered outside the marine reserve where urchin barrens dominated. The combination of large spatio-temporal variation in reef assemblages and variable effects of early reserve protection in shallow subtidal habitats made it challenging to detect other changes among zones. Careful consideration of variation in the design and analysis of shallow subtidal reef monitoring is necessary to ensure such programs can best inform adaptive management processes. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,257-264,,,167,,Biol.

Frequently, it is the effect of mobile gear such as dredges and trawls which are of principal concern. The ecological consequences of passive/static gear such as pots and traps on benthic communities are far less understood. The establishment of a Sanctuary Zone/No-Take Zone at Lundy Island in 2003 allowed us to test the idea that if potting for crustaceans has an impact on benthic assemblages, then on the cessation of potting, assemblages should become different from those where potting continues. A concurrent study using experimental potting within the No-Take Zone allowed a separate test of this idea, but with a controlled fishing effort. This is the first longer-term study into the effects of lobster potting on benthic assemblages in the northern Atlantic. Multivariate analyses on patterns of change in assemblages over the 4. years of the study indicated no differences in how assemblages changed over time between areas subject to potting and those not fished. From the results, we conclude that potting for lobsters and crabs in inshore waters seems to have no detectable effects over the timescale of the experiment. In addition to being management goals/tools in their own right, strongly protected areas such as Sanctuary/No-Take Zones provide an opportunity to test experimental hypotheses about the effects of fishing.

In this context, we aimed to identify the main areas where the interaction between marine biodiversity and threats is more pronounced and to assess their spatial overlap with current marine protected areas in the Mediterranean. Location Mediterranean Sea. Methods We first identified areas of high biodiversity of marine mammals, marine turtles, seabirds, fishes and commercial or well-documented invertebrates. We mapped potential areas of high threat where multiple threats are occurring simultaneously. Finally we quantified the areas of conservation concern for biodiversity by looking at the spatial overlap between high biodiversity and high cumulative threats, and we assessed the overlap with protected areas. Results Our results show that areas with high marine biodiversity in the Mediterranean Sea are mainly located along the central and north shores, with lower values in the south-eastern regions. Areas of potential high cumulative threats are widespread in both the western and eastern basins, with fewer areas located in the south-eastern region. The interaction between areas of high biodiversity and threats for invertebrates, fishes and large animals in general (including large fishes, marine mammals, marine turtles and seabirds) is concentrated in the coastal areas of Spain, Gulf of Lions, north-eastern Ligurian Sea, Adriatic Sea, Aegean Sea, south-eastern Turkey and regions surrounding the Nile Delta and north-west African coasts. Areas of concern are larger for marine mammal and seabird species. Main conclusions These areas may represent good candidates for further research, management and protection activities, since there is only a maximum 2% overlap between existing marine protected areas (which cover 5% of the Mediterranean Sea) and our predicted areas of conservation concern for biodiversity. © 2011 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,465-480,,4,21,,Global Ecol.

In times of economic pressure it is essential to identify the 'low-hanging fruit' for conservation: areas where human impacts are lower and biological diversity is still high, and thus conservation is more feasible. Location: We used the Mediterranean large marine ecosystem (LME) as a case study to identify the overlapping areas of low threats and high diversity of vertebrate species at risk. Methods: This LME is the first in the world to have a complete regional IUCN Red List assessment of the native marine fish. We augmented these data with distributions of marine mammals, marine turtles and seabirds at risk, and we calculated the spatial distributions of species at risk (IUCN densities). Using cumulative threats we identified 'priority areas for conservation of species at risk' (PACS), where IUCN diversities are high and threats are low. We assessed whether IUCN diversities and PACS were spatially congruent among taxa and we quantified whether PACS corresponded to current and proposed protected areas. Results: IUCN densities and PACS were not highly correlated spatially among taxa. Continental shelves and deep-sea slopes of the Alboran Sea, western Mediterranean and Tunisian Plateau/Gulf of Sidra are identified as relevant for fish species at risk. The eastern side of the western Mediterranean and the Adriatic Sea are identified as most relevant for endemic fish, and shelf and open sea areas distributed through the LME are most important for marine mammals and turtles at risk, while specific locations of the western Mediterranean Sea and the Aegean and Levantine seas are highlighted for seabirds. Main conclusions: Large parts of the areas of PACS fell outside current or proposed frameworks to be prioritized for conservation. PACS may be suitable candidates for contributing to the 10% protection target for the Mediterranean Sea by 2020. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,226-239,,2,24,,Global Ecol.

This research aimed at studying the distribution and conservation status of eight poorly-known micro-snails of the genera Stephacharopa and Stephadiscus in Chile. We performed a comprehensive review of literature and databases to determine the occurrences of the species, which were mapped on vector layers containing protected areas and human development infrastructure to find potential threats. Conservation status assessment was performed following the criteria and tools implemented by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List and NatureServe. We also conducted species distribution models, based on maximum entropy, to identify areas that should be prioritised for conservation. Two species meet the criteria for IUCN listing as Critically Endangered (CR), four Endangered (EN), one Vulnerable (Vu) and one Least Concern (LC). This classification is rather coincident with equivalent categories obtained under the NatureServe standard, in which two species were ranked as Critically Imperiled (N1), five Imperiled (N2) and one Vulnerable (N3). We found that Stephacharopa paposensis is the most at-risk species, with only one occurrence not included in a protected area, followed by Stephadiscus stuardoi, with two occurrences, one of them within a protected area. Stephadiscus lyratus was the species with the greatest geographic range, accounting for 17 occurrences, seven matching a protected area. We found wider potential ranges in modelled species that may be useful for prioritising conservation measures. Considering distributional data, protected areas and more than 20 plausible threats identified, we propose potential in situ and ex situ conservation actions to protect these neglected micro-snails. © 2023 Pensoft Publishers.

We used food web models (Ecopath and EcoTroph) to assess the ability of MPAs to reduce fishing impacts on targeted resources and to provide biomass exports for adjacent fisheries. Three coastal MPAs: Bonifacio and Port-Cros (Mediterranean Sea), and Bamboung (Senegalese coast), were used as case studies. Pre-existing related Ecopath models were homogenized and ecosystem characteristics were compared based on network indices and trophic spectra analyses. Using the EcoTroph model, we simulated different fishing mortality scenarios and assessed fishing impacts on the three ecosystems. Lastly, the potential biomass that could be exported from each MPA was estimated. Despite structural and functional trophic differences, the three MPAs showed similar patterns of resistance to simulated fishing mortalities, with the Bonifacio case study exhibiting the highest potential catches and a slightly inferior resistance to fishing. We also show that the potential exports from our small size MPAs are limited and thus may only benefit local fishing activities. Based on simulations, their potential exports were estimated to be at the same order of magnitude as the amount of catch that could have been obtained inside the reserve. In Port Cros, the ban of fishing inside MPA could actually allow for improved catch yields outside the MPA due to biomass exports. This was not the case for the Bonifacio site, as its potential exports were too low to offset catch losses. This insight suggests the need for MPA networks and/or sufficiently large MPAs to effectively protect juveniles and adults and provide important exports. Finally, we discuss the effects of MPAs on fisheries that were not considered in food web models, and conclude by suggesting possible improvements in the analysis of MPA efficiency. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.",,383-395,,,139,,J.

Despite acknowledged benefits and its potential for improved management outcomes, in the U.S., comanagement of marine protected areas (MPAs) is a relatively new approach, with limited applications. This paper reveals social, ecological and institutional conditions that enabled, or hindered, development of comanagement as an outcome of collaborative processes undertaken by community-based actors and state-based resource managers in three U.S. MPA case studies. A mixed method design, consisting of a literature review, in-depth interviews and document analysis was used to analyze MPAs in Hawai‘i, California and Florida where: (1) comanagement systems have developed between state government and community-based partners, (2) protected area boundaries and objectives are clearly defined, and, (3) marine habitat protection is a primary management objective. Eight enabling conditions were present in all three cases. Four of these conditions were consistent with preconditions identified in a published conceptual framework for comanagement arrangements synthesized from the literature and direct observations – an opportunity for negotiation, a legally mandated or brokered incentive, a willingness by local users to contribute, and leadership. Four more enabling conditions emerged from this study – connection to place, a capacity crisis, government willingness to partner, and a clear and just process. As managers strive to protect marine ecosystem function in the face of chronic environmental stressors and limited government support for environmental protection, applying these findings to leverage conditions that enable comanagement can help build community-based capacity to effectively manage MPAs. © 2020 The Authors",,,,,122,,Mar.

The reduction in juvenile mortality is particularly relevant in the Mediterranean and is considered as one of the main prerequisites for the future sustainability of trawl fisheries. The distribution of nursery areas of 11 important commercial species of demersal fish and shellfish was analysed in the European Union Mediterranean waters using time series of bottom trawl survey data with the aim of identifying the most persistent recruitment areas. A high interspecific spatial overlap between nursery areas was mainly found along the shelf break of many different sectors of the Northern Mediterranean indicating a high potential for the implementation of conservation measures. Overlap of the nursery grounds with existing spatial fisheries management measures and trawl fisheries restricted areas was also investigated. Spatial analyses revealed considerable variation depending on species and associated habitat/depth preferences with increased protection seen in coastal nurseries and minimal protection seen for deeper nurseries (e.g. Parapenaeus longirostris 6%). This is partly attributed to existing environmental policy instruments (e.g. Habitats Directive and Mediterranean Regulation EC 1967/2006) aiming at minimising impacts on coastal priority habitats such as seagrass, coralligenous and maerl beds. The new knowledge on the distribution and persistence of demersal nurseries provided in this study can support the application of spatial conservation measures, such as the designation of no-take Marine Protected Areas in EU Mediterranean waters and their inclusion in a conservation network. The establishment of no-take zones will be consistent with the objectives of the Common Fisheries Policy applying the ecosystem approach to fisheries management and with the requirements of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive to maintain or achieve seafloor integrity and good environmental status. © 2015 Colloca et al.",,,,3,10,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,animal; Animals; Aristaeomorpha foliacea; Article; ASSEMBLAGES; biodiversity; Biodiversity; cephalopod; Conservation of Natural Resources; demersal fish; economics; ecosystem; Ecosystem; EFFECTIVE JUVENILE HABITATS; Eledone cirrhosa; environmental impact assessment; environmental management; environmental planning; environmental protection; ENVIRONMENTAL-FACTORS; Europe; female; Female; fish; fish school; fishery management; Fishes; Galeus melastomus; geographic distribution; habitat quality; HAKE MERLUCCIUS-MERLUCCIUS; Illex coindetii; international cooperation; International Cooperation; legislation and jurisprudence; lobster; male; Male; MANAGEMENT; MARINE NURSERIES; Mediterranean Sea; Merluccius merluccius; Mullus barbatus; Nephrops norvegicus; nonhuman; Pagellus erythrinus; Parapenaeus longirostris; PARAPENAEUS-LONGIROSTRIS; physiology; population dynamics; Population Dynamics; Raja clavata; shrimp; Solea solea; species conservation; species habitat; statistical model; STRAIT; trawl fishery; VARIABILITY; WATER ROSE SHRIMP,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Perfluorododecanoic acid (PFDoA), perfluorodecanoic acid (PFDA) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFNA) were also found in all studied areas but at lower concentrations, while perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) was only detected in the Medes Islands. Principal Component Analysis revealed the co-occurrence of the 6 detected PFAS, and differentiated samples from Ebro Delta and Medes Islands, both located in the North-Eastern Mediterranean Sea, with high contribution of all PFAS, from Chafarinas and Atlantic Islands with lower concentration levels and variability. Also, different patterns were observed among colonies, suggesting the fish-based diet plays an important role in PFAS bioaccumulation.

Although systematic conservation planning (SCP) approaches are increasingly used to inform such networks, their application remains challenging in large and poorly researched areas. This is especially the case in the deep sea, where SCP has rarely been applied, although growing awareness of the vulnerability of deep-sea ecosystems urges the implementation of conservation measures from local to international levels. This study aims to structure and evaluate a framework for SCP applicable to the deep sea, focusing on the identification of conservation priority networks for vulnerable marine ecosystems (VMEs), such as cold-water coral reefs, sponge grounds, or hydrothermal vents, and for key demersal fish species. Based on multi-objective prioritization, different conservation scenarios were investigated, allowing the impact of key elements such as connectivity and conservation cost to be evaluated. Our results show that continental margin slopes, the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, and deeper areas of large and productive shelves housing fishing grounds appeared as crucial zones for preserving the deep-sea biodiversity of the North Atlantic, and within the limitations imposed by the data available, of the Mediterranean. Using biologically-informed connectivity led to a more continuous and denser conservation network, without increasing the network size. Even when minimizing the overlap with socioeconomic activities, the inclusion of exploited areas was necessary to fulfil conservation objectives. Such areas included continental shelf fishing grounds for demersal fish species, and areas covered by deep-sea mining exploration contracts for hydrothermal vent communities. Covering 17% of the study area and protecting 55% of each feature on average, the identified priority network held a high conservation potential. However, these areas still suffer from poor protection, with 30% of them benefiting from some form of recognition and 11% only from protection against trawling. Integrating them into current marine spatial planning (MSP) discussions could foster the implementation of a basin-scale conservation network for the deep sea. Overall, this work established a framework for developing large-scale systematic planning, useful for managing Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction (ABNJ). © Copyright © 2021 Combes, Vaz, Grehan, Morato, Arnaud-Haond, Dominguez-Carrió, Fox, González-Irusta, Johnson, Callery, Davies, Fauconnet, Kenchington, Orejas, Roberts, Taranto and Menot.",,,,,8,,Front.

Savannas are often managed with predators and large herbivores as priority species, with little thought to the many bird species that management decisions could affect. Using a data set spanning seven breeding seasons, we examined how nesting success of Southern Ground-hornbills (SGHs) Bucorvus leadbeateri in the Kruger National Park varied as a result of various environmental and habitat factors within a radius of 3 km surrounding the nest site. Identifying which factors affect nesting success will allow for targeted management efforts to ensure the long-term survival of SGHs both within and outside of protected areas. Habitat structure and diversity of the vegetation surrounding the nest were the most influential factors on SGH nesting success. SGHs require open grassy areas for foraging and areas with large trees for nesting. Savanna habitat drivers such as elephants and fire should be managed to ensure that sufficient large trees are able to establish in the landscape and to control for bush encroachment. This is especially important in areas earmarked for SGH reintroductions. Nest sites of SGHs should be monitored to mitigate any structural changes in the habitat surrounding the nests. Nests should be modified or artificial nest sites provided, where nests have been damaged or lost, to ensure the continued presence of these birds in African savannas. Conservation implications: Habitat structure and diversity surrounding Southern Ground-hornbill nests has a significant impact on their nesting success. This highlights the importance of monitoring vegetation change in savanna habitats where they occur. Management of savanna areas should take factors that influence bush encroachment, such as fire and elephants, into account to ensure the long-term persistence of these birds. © 2017. The Authors.

This is a consequence of their varied feeding behaviors ranging from targeted consumption of living plant material (primarily surgeonfishes) to feeding on detrital aggregates that are either scraped from the reef surface or excavated from the deeper reef substratum (primarily parrotfishes). Increased fishing pressure and widespread habitat destruction have led to population declines for several species of these two groups. Species-specific data on global distribution, population status, life history characteristics, and major threats were compiled for each of the 179 known species of parrotfishes and surgeonfishes to determine the likelihood of extinction of each species under the Categories and Criteria of the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Due in part to the extensive distributions of most species and the life history traits exhibited in these two families, only three (1.7%) of the species are listed at an elevated risk of global extinction. The majority of the parrotfishes and surgeonfishes (86%) are listed as Least Concern, 10% are listed as Data Deficient and 1% are listed as Near Threatened. The risk of localized extinction, however, is higher in some areas, particularly in the Coral Triangle region. The relatively low proportion of species globally listed in threatened Categories is highly encouraging, and some conservation successes are attributed to concentrated conservation efforts. However, with the growing realization of man's profound impact on the planet, conservation actions such as improved marine reserve networks, more stringent fishing regulations, and continued monitoring of the population status at the species and community levels are imperative for the prevention of species loss in these groups of important and iconic coral reef fishes. © 2012 Comeros-Raynal et al.",,,,7,7,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"Acanthuridae; Animals; Anthozoa; article; Atlantic Ocean; BOLBOMETOPON-MURICATUM; CHEILINUS-UNDULATUS; CLIMATE-CHANGE; Conservation of Natural Resources; coral reef; Coral Reefs; detritivore; Endangered Species; environmental impact; environmental monitoring; EVOLUTIONARY HISTORY; Extinction, Biological; feeding behavior; Feeding Behavior; fish; fishing; geographic distribution; HABITAT DEGRADATION; herbivore; Herbivory; IUCN RED LIST; life history trait; marine environment; MARINE RESERVE; nonhuman; NUTRITIONAL ECOLOGY; Pacific Ocean; parrot fish; Perciformes; PHASE-SHIFTS; Pisces; plant; Population Dynamics; Probability; Scaridae; species conservation; species difference; species extinction; species habitat; species richness; Species Specificity; STOPLIGHT PARROTFISH; surgeon fish",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The primary goal of this study is to link microplastic ingestion in several bioindicator species and creating hazard maps from microplastics sampled along the seafloor, in the hyperbenthos and along the sea surface layer in a Marine Protected Area (MPA). Considering the connectivity between these layers, the findings of this study identify areas of concern, especially within bay areas, where marine diversity is exposed to microplastic debris ingestion. In terms of exposure to plastic debris, our findings indicate that areas with high species diversity are particularly vulnerable to plastic exposure. The best model integrated the mean exposure of each species to plastic debris across each layer and the nektobenthic species inhabiting the hyperbenthos layer were found to be the most at risk. Furthermore, the cumulative model's scenario indicated a higher risk to plastic ingestion when all habitats were considered jointly. Overall, the findings of this research highlight marine diversity in a Mediterranean MPA are vulnerable to microplastic pollution, and this study's proposed exposure methodology is applicable to other MPAs. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,892,,Sci.

They are isolated islands of coral origin, without permanent human population. This situation makes them good candidates to evaluate the evolution of biodiversity without direct anthropogenic influences. Knowledge is still scarce because their accessibility is limited. With the idea of classifying them as Marine Protected Areas, a management plan is required based on the coral reef communities. Among several aims, the program BioReCIE (Biodiversity, Resources and Conservation of Eparses Islands) was to complete the inventories of several marine groups, including the echinoderms, which had never been assessed before. In November 2011, a multidisciplinary team explored the reef slopes of the island by scuba diving down to 20 meters (10 sites), and the reef flats at low tide (14 sites, including the lagoon surrounded by mangrove), collecting and taking photos of the organisms which have been preserved in 95% ethanol and identified. The total species richness for echinoderms was 39 including 4 Crinoidea, 8 Echinoidea, 5 Asteroidea, with Aquilonastra chantalae a new species, 13 Ophiuroidea and 9 Holothuroidea. Twenty three species were collected on the slopes and 21 on the reef flats. Given the limited number of sites studied, the occurrence of the different species in each class is presented as frequent, infrequent or rare. The semi quantitative measure of abundance identified populations with high densities, as Stichopus chioronotus, Ophiocoma scolopendrina and Echinometra mathaei on the reef flats. Several species were only collected as juveniles. On the slopes Echinostrephus molaris, Ophiothela danae and diadematids were frequent, but with lower densities.

Although almost 96% of its original area has been devastated, a large part of its remaining conserved area is inhabited by traditional communities. This research focused on two Quilombola communities who reside within the Núcleo Picinguaba of the Serra do Mar State Park, State of Săo Paulo, Brazil. The objective was to use a combination of ethnoecological and ecological approaches to select priority species for which to develop participatory conservation and sustainable management plans in protected areas in Brazil. We collaborated with community members to collect ethnobotanical and ethnoecological data and then measured the abundance of native species in local forests through phytosociological sampling. We used this information to assess the degree of threat to useful species using the Conservation Priority Index, adding an additional layer of analysis based on habitat successional categories. We then overlayed those useful species identified as highest risk locally with those federally listed as threatened or endangered. Based on this, we identified three species as priority for the development of sustainable management plans: Virola bicuhyba, Cedrella fissilis and Plinia edulis. © 2020 Conde et al.

Modification of these dynamics due to single reasons (e.g., cattle land flooding) exacerbates the conflicts between conservation and development, imposing a severe threat to these fragile ecosystems. This chapter focuses on the case of Laguna de Rocha (Uruguay), a protected area of high biodiversity value, where the sandbar breaching is the center of a long-term debate. We outline how a complex environmental conflict was primarily solved through an interdisciplinary approach and the inclusion of local ecological knowledge in the research, to develop a multicriteria decision tree on how to proceed when decisions on the artificial opening of the sandbar have to be made. The decision model emerged as a product of successive iterations between technicians and stakeholders, and has been now accepted as a specific program of the Management Plan of the lagoon. After harmonizing main goals and products to be attained, we collected information and carried out ecological, geomorphological, hydrodynamic, and social studies that were later combined to arrive to a protocol for the artificial opening. The model is expressed as a decision tree from where managers can draw decisions to be implemented, based on a reduced set of natural and social indicators. The successful application will depend upon a complex and long-term practice of consensus construction among local stakeholders, managers, and professionals. Arriving at a consensus was helped enormously by the existence for more than a decade of a local advisory multipartner committee addressing environmental problems. © 2015 Elsevier Inc.

Visual assessments were conducted around the seven main islands by means of 36 ROV transects. The video material was divided into 3 parts belonging to 3 Archipelago sectors (Western, Central and Eastern) and into 3 depth ranges (20-50, 51-120, 121-190). Thirty taxa of teleosts (29 species and 1 genus) belonging to 16 families were recorded. The assemblages were numerically dominated by some schooling fishes, such as Anthias anthias, Callanthias ruber and Chromis chromis that exhibited a depth-related partitioning of space, and three non-gregarious species, namely Serranus cabrilla, Coris julis and Lappanella fasciata. In terms of species composition, the assemblages observed in the sectors of the Archipelago largely overlapped. No significant sector-related differences were detected in fish species richness, diversity and total density. Species composition and the investigated assemblage parameters were significantly affected by depth. The pattern of variation in species richness among depth ranges differed from one archipelago sector to another. No significant interaction between the depth range and sector factors was observed in terms of species diversity and total density. Diversity values at 20-50 and 121-190 m depth were similar and significantly higher than at 51-120 m depth. Fish total density showed a clear downward trend with increasing depth, although significant differences were detected between the 20-50 and 51-120 depth layers and the deepest one. Overall, the demersal fish assemblage of the Aeolian Archipelago was poorly diversified and depleted, most likely due to overfishing.

In this context, the main aim of the current study was to compare the catch composition of Lampedusa’s shallow-water trawl fishery, in terms of retained and discarded fraction, using the 24 mm square-mesh codend (illegal and supposed unselective) and the 50 mm current diamond-mesh codend (legal and supposed selective). During 2012, 21 hauls were performed, under commercial conditions, with the 24 mm square mesh codend and 27 with the 50 mm diamond mesh codend in an area of the Strait of Sicily at depths from 40 to 80 m. The introduction of a 50 mm diamond-mesh, although not significantly, reduced the CPUEs of retained and discarded fraction compared with the 24 mm mesh. Moreover, for most target species and their size classes (especially immature individuals), the legal mesh recorded a lower mean number of specimens than the banned mesh size. All these advantages aside, the discard of the shallow-water trawl fishery, in Lampedusa, represented a very important part of the total catch (more than three-quarters) by both mesh sizes and a large amount of this was represented by species and habitat of conservation concern. Our results suggest that spatial restrictions, such as no-take zones, could be a more effective management tool to protect this sensitive ecosystem in the area than the technical measures (e.g. reduction of mesh size) imposed today by the EU. © 2017 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.",,1084-1094,,10,13,,Mar.

We carried out 13 km of video recordings, by means of a remotely operated vehicle, from 10 to 210 m depth, in an anthropised area of the Tyrrhenian Sea (Mediterranean Sea). This site, for its high ecological importance and biodiversity value, has been identified for the establishment of a new marine protected area (MPA). The aim of this paper was to assess marine litter abundance and its effects on the benthic fauna. The debris density, in the study area, ranged from 0.24 to 8.01 items/100 m2, with an average of 3.49 (±0.59) items/100 m2. The derelict fishing gear, mainly fishing lines, were the main source of marine debris, contributing 77.9% to the overall litter. The impacts of debris on the benthic fauna were frequently recorded, with 28.5% of the litter entangling corals and impacting habitats of conservation concern. These impacts were exclusively caused by the derelict fishing gear (91.2% by longlines), and the highest percentage (49.1%) of ALDFG causing impacts was observed from 41 to 80 m depth, in the coralligenous biocenosis. The results of the present study will help the fulfilment of “harm” monitoring, as recommended by the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) and the UN Environment/MAP Regional Plan on the marine litter management in the Mediterranean Sea. Regarding the actions to reduce the derelict fishing gear, preventive measures are usually preferred instead of the extensive removals based on cost-effectiveness and sustainability. The establishment of a new MPA in the area could be a good solution to reduce ALDFG, resulting in the improvement of the ecological status of this coastal area. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,472-481,,,249,,Environ.

Sampling was carried out by means of underwater visual census techniques in four sampling sites within the reserve boundaries and eight outside the reserve. Results showed significant inside/outside differences in the multivariate abundance of fish assemblage. These results were confirmed and exemplified by significant univariate differences between locations for total abundance, Species Richness and diversity of the fish assemblage; values of these metrics were higher inside the reserve than outside. Small fish size and species of low and medium fishing value did not display significant inside/outside differences in abundances whereas medium, large size fish and high value species showed abundances significantly higher inside the marine reserve. Protection effects were particularly evident for large specimens of high fishing value, most of which were exclusively found inside the reserve (Diplodus puntazzo, Epinephelus costae, Mycteroperca rubra, Scorpaena scrofa, Spondyliosoma cantharus, Sciaena umbra and Epinephelus marginatus). The present study provides evidence of a reserve effect on fish populations after only five years since its establishment.

It aims to reduce risks from fisheries to whole, or components of, ecosystems, not just to target species. Precautionary approaches further aim to keep the risk of damage to a low level. Here, we provide a dynamic framework for spreading the ecosystems risk of fisheries in space and time, a method that can be used from the outset of developing fisheries and continually updated as new knowledge becomes available. Importantly, this method integrates qualitative and quantitative approaches to assess risk and provides mechanisms to both spread the risk, including enabling closed areas to help offset risk, and adjust catch limits to keep regional risk to a baseline level. Also, the framework does not require uniform data standards across a region but can incorporate spatially and temporally heterogeneous data and knowledge. The approach can be coupled with the conservation of biodiversity in marine protected areas, addressing potential overlap of fisheries with areas of high conservation value. It accounts for spatial and temporal heterogeneity in ecosystems, including the different spatial and temporal scales at which organisms function. We develop the framework in the first section of the paper, including a simple illustration of its application. In the framework we include methods for using closed areas to offset risk or for conserving biodiversity of high conservation value. We also present methods that could be used to account for uncertainties in input data and knowledge. In the second section, we present a real-world illustration of the application of the framework to managing risks of food web effects of fishing for Antarctic krill in the Southern Ocean.

It includes three national parks (NP): Cape Horn NP, Alberto de Agostini NP, and Yendegaia NP. The CHBR, is immersed within the Magellanic sub-Antarctic ecoregion, which has been identified as one of the last pristine areas left in the world. Nonetheless, it is not free from local and global threats, such as invasive exotic species, climate change, massive tourism and other economic activities that do not value biological and cultural diversity. To contribute towards an appreciation of the values of biocultural diversity, the scientific team at Omora Park (Navarino Island, 55°S), has developed the Field Environmental Philosophy (FEP) methodological approach, which integrates ecological sciences, arts, and environmental ethics through four interrelated steps: 1) interdisciplinary research, 2) poetic communication through the composition of metaphors, 3) design of field activities with an ethical and ecological orientation, and 4) in situ conservation, to contribute to biocultural conservation. We present the methods and results of a multidisciplinary work focused on invertebrates and freshwater ecosystems of the CHBR, with the aim to contribute: a) to a better understanding of the possible responses of aquatic insects to climate change in the long-term, and b) generate tools for research and education to ecologically and ethically value freshwater invertebrates and ecosystems. The conceptual foundations are based on the Land Ethics of Aldo Leopold, and the biocultural ethics of Ricardo Rozzi. Through the praxis of the FEP we generate concrete actions for the conservation of the natural and cultural heritage. Finally, we propose new research methodologies that include valuing of the invertebrates' lives. FEP provides a methodology that contributes towards the transformation of the prevalent way in which global society understands, values and relates to freshwater ecosystems and their co-inhabitants, fostering more respectful and sustainable life habits in the short and long term. © 2018 Universidad de Magallanes.; La Reserva de la Biosfera Cabo de Hornos (RBCH) es la más grande de Chile e integra ecosistemas marinos y terrestres, e incluye tres parques nacionales (PN): PN Cabo de Hornos, PN Alberto de Agostini y PN Yendegaia.

The Masungi Georeserve in Rizal Province, which is part of the 26,125.84 hectares that comprise the Upper Marikina River Basin Protected Landscape (UMRBPL), captures the challenges inherent in environmental conflict resolution. This paper analyzes the situation in the Masungi Georeserve using a political ecological lens, particularly applying Michel Foucault’s theory of governmentality and James Scott’s theory of legibility. It is found that attempts of the State to enable governmentality and legibility have further contributed to the conflict. The main goal of the paper is to offer a framework for resolving the conflict that would serve the best interests of all stakeholders, even as it is also the best option for optimizing the ecological services provided by the Masungi Georeserve.

To support this goal, I analyzed the different types of measures discussed as possible OECMs in the literature, identifying a wide range of measures, far more diverse than those currently recognized as OECMs. There was a strong emphasis on measures with conservation as a secondary management objective, with most studies being supportive of the potential to balance biodiversity conservation and sustainable resource use. However, many studies have highlighted the need to ensure biodiversity outcomes are achieved and sustained, and that appropriate governance and management structures are in place. Concerns were raised about measures associated with resource extraction, such as fisheries and forestry, which were often considered incompatible with conservation. Very few studies offered a nuanced discussion of specific measures or evaluated whether sites offer conservation outcomes, leaving clear knowledge gaps in translating speculation into evidence. Nevertheless, the current literature offers a strong starting point from which to target potential case studies to build the evidence base necessary to advance OECMs.",,,,4,17,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001231723900001,,,,,,,30 x 30; AICHI TARGET 11; area-based conservation; CANADA; CBD; conservation measure; Convention on Biological Diversity; FOREST; MARINE; OECM; other conservation areas; protected and conserved areas,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Despite the importance of this shift for global conservation, conservation science and policy have been slow to engage with the concept of OECMs. As the world moves toward protecting 30% of the Earth by 2030, it is imperative to develop evidence-based guidance for how to identify effective conservation measures, especially tools to help evaluate and monitor the biodiversity outcomes associated with potential OECMs. To understand the current progress in developing the concept of OECMs, I evaluated the peer-reviewed literature to consolidate and synthesize current knowledge. I conducted a thematic analysis of papers to identify the types of challenges and opportunities being discussed and lessons from studies evaluating the effectiveness of OECMs. Only 105 studies mentioned OECMs, and those that did rarely move beyond superficial mention of OECMs as part of area-based conservation. Around one-half of studies listed potential risks or benefits of OECMs but none provided evidence these issues have materialized. Twenty-three studies attempted to identify potential OECMs, although specific case studies were rare. The 7 studies that evaluated existing OECMs were highly critical of how they had been implemented to date. Studies that evaluated conservation outcomes were extremely rare, and suggested effectiveness must be judged on a case-by-case basis. The current literature not only leaves many gaps in the science required to operationalize the concept of OECMs, but also often raises additional questions that need to be addressed. If these gaps are not filled by robust science, the promised benefits for biodiversity from OECMs may never be realized.",,,,1,38,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001038903100001,,,,,,,30x30; Aichi Target 11; area-based conservation; BIODIVERSITY; CANADA; Convention on Biological Diversity; global biodiversity framework; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; OECMS; protected and conserved areas; protected areas; TARGET,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Although not adhering to the International Union for Conservation of Nature's criteria for marine protected areas, whale sanctuaries are an increasingly common approach to conservation around the world. This paper is the first in the academic literature to use a case study approach to review the extent to which whale sanctuaries contribute to ecosystem-based management. A fifteen-criteria framework for marine ecosystem-based management is applied with reference to six whale sanctuary case studies, including the International Whaling Commission's two designations in the Indian Ocean and Southern Ocean. The review underscores the generally very limited contribution of whale sanctuaries to ecosystem-based management, unless they are explicit in stating conservation goals and embedding these within iterative management plans. The Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary is cited as an example of an approach that comes closest to fulfilling the objectives of ecosystem-based management, albeit its designation lacks consideration of ecosystem dynamics and the interrelationships between multiple economic actors operating within its boundaries. In order to meet the requirements of Goal 14, the case studies in this paper reveal advancements necessary for whale sanctuaries to transition towards ecosystem-based management: establishment of objectives broader than the conservation of whale stocks, assessment of the contribution of the sanctuary to human well-being and trade-offs in ecosystem services, accounting for ecological and socio-economic dynamics, and ensuring broad stakeholder consultation and participatory adaptive management. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,182,,Ocean Coast.

This paper presents results from an effort to conduct long-term socioeconomic monitoring of commercial fishing communities in relation to California's statewide MPA network, which was fully implemented in 2012 and consists of 124 MPAs covering 16% of state waters. To assess commercial fishing community perceptions of well-being and outcomes from the MPA network, we held virtual focus groups in 18 major port-based commercial fishing communities across California with a total of 85 participants from 2020 to 2021. Focus groups had both quantitative and qualitative components, with participants rating their fishing community and engaging in discussions on topics related to their environmental, economic, and social well-being and MPA outcomes. Results revealed that perceptions of fishing community well-being varied throughout the state, but were overall low. Key areas for improvement included recruitment and retention of participants in the fishing industry, availability and maintenance of key fishing infrastructure, and access to harvestable resources. Fishing community perceptions of the management and outcomes from the MPA network were overwhelmingly low across the state with little variation. Common reasons for participant dissatisfaction included perceptions of negative ecological and livelihood outcomes from the MPAs and a perceived lack of clear MPA management goals in addition to poor communication of those goals. Overall findings highlight the value of collecting community well-being data in coordination with long-term socioeconomic MPA monitoring to understand the greater context in which MPAs are received. A well-being approach to socioeconomic MPA monitoring also broadens policy pathways that could help improve outcomes from and beyond MPAs to support overall fishing community health. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,254,,Ocean Coast.

However, the recreational fisheries sector has the potential to be compatible with no-take MPAs when catch-and-release angling is practiced because, in theory, no fish are actually harvested. This presumes that the effects of catch-and-release angling and related activities do not cause appreciable declines in fish populations as a result of direct mortality, sub-lethal effects, or indirect effects on fish habitats, or other problems contrary to the goal of a given MPA. Here, we explore the idea that recreational catch-and-release angling may be compatible with some no-take MPAs provided there are no substantive negative ecological consequences. We argue that it is not currently possible to answer definitively the question of whether recreational catch-and-release fisheries can be compatible with no-take MPAs. Mortality rates of released fish vary extensively (between zero and near 100%) and are influenced by a number of factors including environmental conditions, fishing gear, angler behavior, and species-specific characteristics. Nevertheless, research in the field of catch-and-release is beginning to show that certain handling techniques can significantly reduce post-release mortality in fish. With appropriate regulation and angler education, catch-and-release could help enhance conservation and management goals associated with MPAs while maintaining public support and providing alternative tourism-based revenues for displaced fishers. Until sufficient data are available, research should focus on contrasting the fish community characteristics in regions with no fishing and those that permit catch-and-release fishing (i.e., opportunistic observations and controlled manipulations) as well as population-level mathematical modeling to assess the effects of angling on long-term population viability and ecosystem dynamics. Additional efforts should focus on education and outreach that provide anglers and fishing guides with the best available information to reduce catch-and-release mortality, sublethal angling-induced impairments, and broader effects on aquatic environments. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

All these parks are controlled by the Korean National Park Service (KNPS), except for Hallasan NP (Jeju Island), which was established in 1987 and since 1998 has been managed separately by the Ministry of the Environment. The key feature of this book is that it looks at the natural capital embodied in mountainous NPs and the social capital built on this, seeking to understand how both shape and affect natural heritage. In Korea, National Park Master Planning is carried out (the current plan covers the period 2012–2021), and tourism is permitted and promoted. This system has implications for the objectives of the conservation system through the reality of tourism impact (some 40 million visitors per year).

Yet, compliance with MPA regulations remains difficult to measure because of limits to human resources and a lack of affordable technologies to automate monitoring over time. The Marine Monitor, an autonomous vessel monitoring, recording, and reporting system leveraging commercial off-the-shelf X-band marine radar to detect and track vessels, was used to monitor five nearshore California MPAs simultaneously and continuously to identify and compare site-specific use patterns over one year. Vessel tracks were classified into two movement patterns to capture likely fishing activity, ""focal""or ""linear"", that corresponded with local targeted species. Some illegal fishing potentially occurred at all sites (7- 17% of tracks depending on site) most frequently on weekends and at mid-day, but the majority of activity occurred just outside the MPAs and in the near vicinity suggesting both a high level of compliance with regulations and awareness of MPA boundaries. Time spent engaged in potential fishing activity compared to track counts suggests that unique vessels may spend more time fishing inside area boundaries at some sites than others. The spatial distribution of activity shows distinct concentrations near MPA boundaries at all sites which strongly suggests vessels purposefully target the narrow area at the MPA boundary or ""fish the line"", a potential acknowledgement of successful spillover. This activity increased significantly during some local fishing seasons. Concentration of activity at MPA boundaries highlights the importance of continuous monitoring at a high spatial and temporal resolution. Reporting of vessel behavior at a fine-scale using radar can help resource managers target enforcement efforts and understand human use patterns near coastal MPAs. © 2022 Cope et al.

It is at serious risk of extinction, especially along the coast of Corsica and Italy. The small population of P. ferruginea in the marine protected area (MPA) Penisola del Sinis - Isola di Mal di Ventre (W Sardinia, Italy) is an isolated unit whose preservation is critical also from the perspective of conservation genetics. This study considered the impact of illegal harvesting on the conservation status of P. ferruginea in the MPA. Site accessibility (semi-accessible and hardly accessible) and legal protection (Zone A, B, C) were considered in two field surveys conducted in the Mal di Ventre Island in 2011 and 2013. Furthermore, Zone A was monitored annually from 2009 to 2013 to assess population dynamics and extinction risk. In summer 2013 the total population size was estimated at 310 specimens (0.016±0.005 ind m-1) with a significant decrease compared with 2011 (–52%), mainly due to poaching. Significantly higher density was found in the hardly accessible sites (0.039±0.007 ind m-1 in 2013) and generally in Zone A (0.042±0.009 ind m-1 in 2013). The size distribution showed a similar pattern, with larger sized individuals in those sites with maximum legal protection and a lower degree of accessibility. Juveniles (<25 mm) were almost absent and the mean individual growth rate (2.6±0.5 mm yr-1) was lower in comparison with other Mediterranean populations. The population viability analysis predicted that, with current rates of harvesting, P. ferruginea may face local extinction within the next 10 years. Without a joint effort towards the protection of intertidal habitats by enforcement bodies, regulators, researchers and sea users, the MPA will not achieve its conservation objectives and P. ferruginea will disappear from Mal di Ventre Island.

The long-term objective of Protected Areas can be complex considering that preservation of a site should not be in conflict with the right of user's access and with the quality of visitors experiences. Consequently, solutions may be found to find a balance between preservation and recreational uses that can be sustained by the environmental resources of the area. In this study we propose a methodology to help park manager to develop attractive sustainable tourism. The method is based on tourist perception assessment using website reviews and specifically TripAdvisor. We analyzed 637 reviews containing overall satisfaction, environmental aspects, transport means, service and management aspects. On the other hand, the calculation of carrying capacity, based on the Cifuentes method, provided insights about the interaction of human activities with the environment, considering biophysical characteristics, social factors and management policies. Our results suggest that the tourist carrying capacity is in its lower level and that tourist experience is judged excellent. Finally, the analysis of the TripAdvisor reviews may represent a useful instrument for decision makers by identifying negative aspects and solutions. © 2018",,27-36,,,169,,Ocean Coast.

Increasing oil and gas exploration activities in the absence of sufficient baseline data in deep-sea ecosystems has made environmental management challenging. Here, we review the types of activities that are associated with global offshore oil and gas development in water depths over 200 m, the typical impacts of these activities, some of the more extreme impacts of accidental oil and gas releases, and the current state of management in the major regions of offshore industrial activity including 18 exclusive economic zones. Direct impacts of infrastructure installation, including sediment resuspension and burial by seafloor anchors and pipelines, are typically restricted to a radius of ~100 m on from the installation on the seafloor. Discharges of water-based and low-toxicity oil-based drilling muds and produced water can extend over 2 km, while the ecological impacts at the population and community levels on the seafloor are most commonly on the order of 200-300 m from their source. These impacts may persist in the deep sea for many years and likely longer for its more fragile ecosystems, such as cold-water corals. This synthesis of information provides the basis for a series of recommendations for the management of offshore oil and gas development. An effective management strategy, aimed at minimizing risk of significant environmental harm, will typically encompass regulations of the activity itself (e.g., discharge practices, materials used), combined with spatial (e.g., avoidance rules and marine protected areas), and temporal measures (e.g., restricted activities during peak reproductive periods). Spatial management measures that encompass representatives of all of the regional deep-sea community types is important in this context. Implementation of these management strategies should consider minimum buffer zones to displace industrial activity beyond the range of typical impacts: at least 2 km from any discharge points and surface infrastructure and 200 m from seafloor infrastructure with no expected discharges. Although managing natural resources is, arguably, more challenging in deep-water environments, inclusion of these proven conservation tools contributes to robust environmental management strategies for oil and gas extraction in the deep sea. © 2016 Cordes, Jones, Schlacher, Amon, Bernardino, Brooke, Carney, DeLeo, Dunlop, Escobar-Briones, Gates, Génio, Gobin, Henry, Herrera, Hoyt, Joye, Kark, Mestre, Metaxas, Pfeifer, Sink, Sweetman and Witte.",,,,SEP,4,,Front.

Their use has allowed researchers to study a range of species, including rare and elusive species, particularly in remote areas, in a non-invasive, reliable and cost-effective way. In this review, we sought to document the camera trapping research on terrestrial wildlife conducted in Africa, identifying countries and habitat types of focus, and how these camera trap research trends in Africa could be improved in the future. Through a systematic literature search, we found 408 peer-reviewed publications using camera traps to study terrestrial wildlife in Africa, with the first being in 2005 and up to 2021. Although camera trap studies were conducted in 38 African countries, most were in South Africa (28.9 %). Most studies assessed the occupancy of species (41.4 %). The studies covered a range of taxa, with mammals being the most popular. The majority of research focussed on large carnivores (24.8 %), with a particular focus on leopards (Panthera pardus) (60 studies). Most studies (43.9 %) focused on a single species, with forests (174 studies, 42.6 %) and savannah/bushveld (145 studies, 35.5 %) being the habitat type of focus. There was also a strong preference for camera trap studies to be conducted in protected areas (68.9 %). The camera trap methods used varied considerably between studies, which included: the number of camera trap stations, survey length, trap effort, camera trap make and model, camera trap flash type, interval delay, camera multishot, height of camera trap placement, camera trap layout method and whether the camera trap was baited. These variations are expected because of the difference in research goals posed by each study. However, studies with similar objectives and/or focus still display a clear lack of standardisation (studies do not conform to a specific standard), which could negatively impact the results obtained, as inappropriate camera trap protocols could affect the detectability of certain species. Future camera trap studies will hopefully extend to countries and taxa that have received little attention, with further research informing appropriate conservation strategies that could reduce the threats to biodiversity. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,40,,Glob.

Far beyond protection of flagship species such as marine turtles and large marine mammals, the goal is now to conserve and even increase the services associated with coastal ecosystems to the benefit of all stakeholders. References to community management of resources, territorial solidarity, or environmental justice have become common. The political processes undertaken have nevertheless taken a range of different trajectories, since the stakeholders (private, public, NGOs, local collectives) have different interests; their standards and rules are often incompatible; the efficacy of the negotiation process is debatable. In this article, after questioning the legitimacy of MPA (to what extent are they useful tools? -in responding to what aims?), the difficulties of putting into practice this new paradigm of participative governance is analysed and illustrated using three case studies of coastal Senegalese MPAs and the consequences of local intervention: the Saint Louis MPA, the Bamboung Community-Managed MPA in the Saloum Delta, and the Mangagoulack ICCA (Indigenous and Community Conserved Area) in Casamance.

Second, it analyses management instruments and institutional frameworks built along West-African coast, from the first Ramsar sites (Arguin Banc in Mauritania, Djoudj in Senegal, etc.) to Biospher Reserves (Saloum Delta in Senegal) and specific regional planning (regional plan for marine turtles, etc.). Thirdly, the notion of biological corridor and its application are debated; other territories of biodiversity conservation are examined, such as sacred sites.

While MPAs have been successful in meeting these goals for many relatively sedentary species, highly mobile organisms may get few benefits from this type of spatial protection due to their frequent movement outside the protected area. The use of a large MPA can compensate for extensive movement, but testing this empirically is challenging, as it requires both large areas and sufficient time series to draw conclusions. To overcome this limitation, MPA models have been used to identify designs and predict potential outcomes, but these simulations are highly sensitive to the assumptions describing the organism’s movements. Due to recent improvements in computational simulations, it is now possible to include very complex movement assumptions in MPA models (e.g. Individual Based Model). These have renewed interest in MPA simulations, which implicitly assume that increasing the detail in fish movement overcomes the sensitivity to the movement assumptions. Nevertheless, a systematic comparison of the designs and outcomes obtained under different movement assumptions has not been done. In this paper, we use an individual based model, interconnected to population and fishing fleet models, to explore the value of increasing the detail of the movement assumptions using four scenarios of increasing behavioral complexity: a) random, diffusive movement, b) aggregations, c) aggregations that respond to environmental forcing (e.g. sea surface temperature), and d) aggregations that respond to environmental forcing and are transported by currents. We then compare these models to determine how the assumptions affect MPA design, and therefore the effective protection of the stocks. Our results show that the optimal MPA size to maximize fisheries benefits increases as movement complexity increases from ~10% for the diffusive assumption to ~30% when full environment forcing was used. We also found that in cases of limited understanding of the movement dynamics of a species, simplified assumptions can be used to provide a guide for the minimum MPA size needed to effectively protect the stock. However, using oversimplified assumptions can produce suboptimal designs and lead to a density underestimation of ca. 30%; therefore, the main value of detailed movement dynamics is to provide more reliable MPA design and predicted outcomes. Large MPAs can be effective in recovering overfished stocks, protect pelagic fish and provide significant increases in fisheries yields. Our models provide a means to empirically test this spatial management tool, which theoretical evidence consistently suggests as an effective alternative to managing highly mobile pelagic stocks. © 2017 Cornejo-Donoso et al.

The goals, political processes, and approaches applied to planning initiatives may vary widely. However, all planning processes ultimately require adequate information on both the biophysical and social attributes of a planning region. In coastal and ocean planning practice, there are well-established methods to assess biophysical attributes; however, less is understood about the role and assessment of social data. We conducted the first global assessment of the incorporation of social data in coastal and ocean planning. We drew on a comprehensive review of planning initiatives and a survey of coastal and ocean practitioners. There was significantly more incorporation of social data in multiuse versus conservation-oriented planning. Practitioners engaged a wide range of social data, including governance, economic, and cultural attributes of planning regions and human impacts data. Less attention was given to ecosystem services and social-ecological linkages, both of which could improve coastal and ocean planning practice. Although practitioners recognize the value of social data, little funding is devoted to its collection and incorporation in plans. Increased capacity and sophistication in acquiring critical social and ecological data for planning is necessary to develop plans for more resilient coastal and ocean ecosystems and communities. We suggest that improving social data monitoring, and in particular spatial social data, to complement biophysical data, is necessary for providing holistic information for decision-support tools and other methods. Moving beyond people as impacts to people as beneficiaries, through ecosystem services assessments, holds much potential to better incorporate the tenets of ecosystem-based management into coastal and ocean planning by providing targets for linked biodiversity conservation and human welfare outcomes. © 2014 Society for Conservation Biology.",,902-911,,4,28,,Conserv.

Long-term studies in the UK have monitored populations protected within Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) since the 1990s, but a small community of bottlenose dolphins inhabiting the coastal waters of southern England has received much less attention. The English Channel is one of the most heavily impacted marine ecosystems worldwide and increasing anthropogenic pressures pose a severe threat to the long-term viability of this population. Conservation measures to protect these animals have been hindered by a lack of knowledge of population size, distribution and ranging behaviour. This study aimed to fill these knowledge gaps. A citizen science sighting network yielded 7458 sighting reports of bottlenose dolphins between 2000 and 2020. Resightings of identified individuals were used to estimate abundance, distribution, and ranging behaviour. Social structure analysis revealed a discrete interconnected group of animals in shallow coastal waters, which did not appear to mix with conspecifics identified further offshore. A Bayesian multi-site mark–recapture analysis estimated that this population comprises around 48 animals (CV = 0.18, 95% HPDI = 38–66). These dolphins ranged between North Cornwall and Sussex, with an average individual range of 530 km (68–760 km). Areas of high-modelled habitat suitability were found to overlap with high levels of anthropogenic pressure, with pollution and boat traffic identified as the most pervasive threats. Although adult survival rates indicated that the population was relatively stable from 2008 to 2019 (0.945 (0.017 ± SE)), the small population size implies a significant risk to their long-term viability and resilience to environmental change. By highlighting the most deleterious anthropogenic activities and regions of conservation significance, our results will be useful for developing management policies for threat mitigation and population conservation, to protect this vulnerable group of dolphins. © 2023 The Authors.

Multi-zone Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are often advocated to reconcile conservation and fisheries benefits. However, while there is a consensus about the ecological benefits whether such types of MPAs can really provide both benefits is still uncertain. Here, we analysed three existing Northwestern Mediterranean multi-zone MPAs (Cerbčre-Banyuls, Cap de Creus and Medes Islands) using a comparative temporal ecosystem modelling approach to assess their effectiveness over time in recovering marine resources and ecosystem in the area. Our results showed differences in the ecological effectiveness of the three MPAs, potentially driven by MPA design, management and implementation features. Temporal increases of benefits were small, whenever detected, and showed slight recoveries of some target species and ecological indicators, mostly in Cerbčre-Banyuls and Medes Islands MPAs. Our results confirm the benefits of protection to coastal marine resources and ecosystems when MPAs are enforced but highlight the current limitations of the three MPAs due to their small size and the significant impacts of small-scale and recreational fisheries. This study illustrates the capability to evaluate protection effects of small multi-zone MPAs with an ecosystem modelling perspective and represents the baseline to develop future scenarios of alternative management options to foster ecosystem recovery and resource rebuilding in the studied MPAs. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,193,,Ocean Coast.

The generation of better criteria for management decisions and conservation of fishery resources, is based on the reproductive aspects of species that support fishing activities, since this information is related to the abundance, size and frequency of capture. With this aim, the reproductive biology of the spotted snapper Lutjanus guttatus was studied from April 2008 and February 2009 at the Utría National Park, Colombian Pacific. For this, we analyzed the volume of catch, size structure, sex ratio, fecundity, maturity size, breeding areas and seasons (n=278), of daily landings of 21 units of artisanal fisheries in ten fishing grounds in the Park. Form all landings, we evaluated a total of 4 319 individuals belonging to 84 species. Based on the number of individuals, Lutjanus guttatus ranked third in catches representing 6.4% (278 individuals), and 16th with 1.8% (95.79kg), based on catch biomass. The average weight was 0.34kg ±0.25kg, while 29cm±6.4cm for total length. The total length-weight relationship had the best fit (Kruskal-Wallis, p<0.05, n=272) with the equation PT=0.00000885* LT 3.09. The occurrence of mature fish and high condition factors suggested a spawning season in June, September and October in sandy and rocky shores. This species showed an asynchronical gonadal development, with a mean sexual maturity size estimated in 23.5cm total length, and an absolute fecundity of 156 253.11 oocytes (mode of 4?m diameter). We concluded that L. guttatus medium sizes observed indicated a fishing pressure on small size specimens (the minimum size being 18cm); thus, we recommend the implementation of minimum catch sizes based on the criterion of size at maturity LT100 (25.5cm) and to apply seasonal fishing closures during the highest reproductive activity (June- October).

The specific measures to achieve such a goal have spurred a harsh debate among the different stakeholders with the need to mediate among multiple conflicting interests. In this investigation the study of the dynamics of the eel fishery in the Santo André Lagoon, a small-scale fishery in the southwest of Portugal, is presented. Through the description of the management structure, the analysis of 40 years of catch and effort data, and the analysis of socio-economic data, the existing enforcement and the way forward is discussed. Day-to-day logbooks of catch and effort data from five professional fishermen, for two fishing seasons (that is, 2011/2012 and 2016/2017), and surveys to the community, were used to independently estimate total harvest and income of the eel fishery in Santo André Lagoon, and the perception of the fishermen toward regulation and management. The results showed that both catch per unit effort and fishing yield increased during the study period and now ranges between 68 and 169 kg/ha, with eel fishing making a significant fraction of the fishermen's revenue. Although the existing regulation does not satisfy the fishing community, their disagreement decreased during the studied period. The analysis of the fisheries management in the lagoon and its impact on eel harvesting and, on the stock, revealed opportunities to adjust the set of regulations enforced at the national level under the Portuguese EMP to the specific context of the Santo André Lagoon. Specifically, a co-management approach would promote legitimacy and contribute to a better acceptance of the regulations by the fishing community. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,181,,Ocean Coast.

Here, the soundscape of the Gulf of Oristano, a shallow inlet on the western coast of Sardinia including a special conservation area (Habitat Directive) and a national marine protected area, was investigated. Data collection was performed during July 2019, November 2019 and May 2020 using underwater acoustic equipment. The goal of this study was to characterise the ambient sound levels (Sound Pressure Level dB re 1 ?Pa) and describe the main soundscape components. The soundscape exhibited significant circadian and seasonal variations: the lowest and highest median SPL values were observed in the Spring (120–140 dB re 1 ?Pa; post-COVID-19 pandemic lockdown) and the Summer (128–150 dB re 1 ?Pa) respectively. Biophony was identified and characterised as dolphins’ ‘clicks’ and crustaceans’ ‘snapping’. Shrimp activity was dominant in the summer, while dolphin passages were observed across all sampling periods, accounting for 46.4% of the total recordings. Anthropophony, namely vessel passages, was predominant in the summer during the day-time and represented up to 42% of the acoustic space in the low-frequency band. Geophony increased low-frequency noise, and represented a highly variable component of the local soundscape. The marine soundscape is a valuable tool for defining integrated management plans for marine ecosystems, allowing the assessment of habitat quality, characterisation of sound sources and evaluation of the impact of anthropogenic activities. © (2023), (Hellenic Centre for Marine Research).

Cleaning symbiotic interactions are an important component of coral reef biodiversity and the study of the characteristics of these interacting species networks allows to assess the health of communities. The coral reefs of Jardines de la Reina National Park (JRNP) are subject to a protection gradient and there is a lack of knowledge about the effect of different levels of protection on the cleaning mutualistic networks in the area. The present study aims to characterize the mutualistic cleaning networks in the reefs of JRNP and to assess the potential effect of the protection gradient on their characteristics.Methods. We visited 26 reef sites distributed along the National Park and performed 96 band transects (50 m x 4 m). Low, medium and highly protected regions were compared according to the number of cleaning stations and the abundance and number of species of clients and cleaners associated with them. Additionally, we built interaction networks for the three regions and the entire archipelago based on a total of 150 minutes' video records of active cleaning stations. We assessed ecological networks characteristics (specialization, nestedness) using network topological metrics. Results. We found a high diversity and complex cleaning interaction network with 6 cleaner species and 39 client species, among them, the threatened grouper Epinephelus striatus was one of the most common clients. No clear effect of the protection level on the density, abundance or diversity of cleaners and clients was detected during this study. However, we found that the network structure varied among regions, with the highly protected region being more specialized and less nested than the other regions. Our research reveals some patterns that suggest the effect of fishing pressure on cleaning symbiosis, as fishing may reduce the abundance and composition of client species, especially those that are targeted by fishers. However, fishing pressure may not be the main factor influencing cleaning symbiosis inside of the National Park, as other factors, such as habitat quality or environmental conditions may have stronger effects on the demand for cleaning services and the interactions between cleaners and clients. Our research provides insights into the factors that influence cleaning symbiosis and its implications for coral reef conservation and management.",,,,,11,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001123169000006,,,,,,,BEHAVIOR; Caribbean; Cleaning station; DIVERSITY; ECOLOGICAL NETWORKS; ECTOPARASITES; Environmental gradient; FISHES; GOBIES; GOBIOSOMA-EVELYNAE; MPA; Mutualist networks; SEA; THALASSOMA-BIFASCIATUM; WRASSE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The SSS methodology was applied, during the BIO-Príncipe Scientific Expedition (2016), in four target areas, both inside and outside its UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, covering 675 ha between 3 and 30 m depth, also combining SCUBA diving and video transects. These areas were chosen based on their geographical location and habitat information, provided by the local stakeholders. Over the total surface mapped, five main habitats were recorded: sandy seabeds (flat sandbanks and rippled sandbanks), rhodolith seabeds (rhodoliths interspersed with scleractinian coral colonies and macroalgae), biogenic (mud/sedimentary) seabeds, and rocky seabed (bedrock and rocky reefs). In the northern, eastern, and southern areas of the island, sandy bottoms with ripples, interspersed with small biogenic sedimentary beds and rhodolith bottoms predominated. The southwestern area, Baía das Agulhas, concentrated the greatest variability and richness of habitats, including the largest rhodolith seascape. This study provided a consistent and detailed dataset to support the creation and design of future MPAs, already planned by the Principe's government, adding including essential information on areas containing key habitats (e.g. rhodoliths) not detected in previous reports. © 2022 The Author(s)",,,,,57,,Reg.

The largest fire registry was in Minas Gerais, due to favorable conditions for fire and the prolonged season of drought in this state. Failures in the record of occurrence of fires and in the identification of their causes justify the great number of unknown causes. Fires recorded without identifying the causes and/or registered as unknown causes represent a failure to use the ROI tool by the UC and in the fire identification skill, making it difficult to make decisions against fire.

Many species of fish depend on estuaries to complete their development. Most of them have a planktonic early life stage, and adults of the same species often live in a different habitat. 2. The aim was to assess the importance of incorporating data on fish eggs and larvae in systematic conservation planning at the Patos Lagoon estuary, Brazil. 3. Different scenarios, where fish larvae and eggs were or were not included in the systematic conservation planning process, were investigated. 4. An estimate of artisanal fishing revenue was used as an opportunity cost and compared with a spatially homogeneous cost. Cluster analysis was performed to assess the impact of incorporating ichthyoplankton data on the outcomes of estuarine systematic conservation planning. 5. Regardless of the opportunity cost, the spatial plans fell into two clusters - those with and without fish egg and larvae data. This shows that egg and larvae data have a large impact on priorities for conservation actions in space. 6. This approach is the first to combine artisanal fishery economic spatial data with a conservation plan that incorporates early life stages of fishes. 7. In the case of the Patos Lagoon estuary, shallow areas were particularly important for reaching conservation targets in all scenarios. Considering the dynamic nature of these ecosystems, much work needs to be done to devise better methods of spatial planning in estuaries.

The advantages of this form of renewable energy are well known being some of the most important aspects the large wind resource and available area for wind farms’ installation. Nevertheless, the planning of an offshore wind energy project needs to be addressed carefully so as not to interfere with other economic activities or sensitive environmentally protected areas, among other constraints. Similarly, although the offshore wind resource is naturally higher than the resource onshore, the investment costs (including operation and maintenance) are also considerably higher, hence the need to establish straightforward and transparent methodologies for offshore wind planning. Most of the methodologies used for planning purposes are based on geographic information systems (GIS) due to its powerful capabilities in managing, formatting and modelling large amounts of georeferenced data usually involved in planning procedures. This chapter presents a methodology for offshore wind energy planning taking into consideration the several aspects of sea use and the main restrictions which can be relevant for wind farm installation. The methodology consists on the use of a GIS to manage the required information (resource and restrictions maps) and to develop a set of tools that enable the user to add, modify and model the information according to his objectives. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.",,161-179,,,,,,,,,,,Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Green Energy and Technology DOI: 10.1007/978-3-319-27972-5_9,,,,Conservation; Economics; Electric utilities; Energy policy; Geographic information system; Geographic information systems; Information management; Information systems; Information use; Investments; Ocean energy; Ocean maritime spatial planning; Off-shore wind energy; Off-shore wind power; Offshore oil well production; Offshore wind; Offshore wind farms; Offshore winds; Onshore wind farms; Renewable energies; Renewable energy sector; Spatial planning; Wind farm; Wind resources,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Knowledge about processes and dynamics underlying organic matter accumulation in transitional waters is crucial for the protection of these ecologically important coastal habitats. This study investigated the relationship between large particle accumulation and decomposition in a coastal lake included in a Site of Community Interest (SCI) using sediment trap and litterbag techniques. 2. Two sets of sediment traps were deployed at five sites along the longitudinal axis of the lake. One set was emptied once a month for 12 months, and the other twice a year. The contents of the monthly and the 6-monthly traps and the superficial sediments were then compared to estimate the organic matter accumulation and loss. To determine the mass loss rate of the three major allochthonous sources of detritus (the reed Phragmites australis, the cordgrass Spartina juncea, and the seagrass Posidonia oceanica), litterbags were placed near the sediment traps at three out of the five sites at the beginning of each 6-month period and retrieved monthly. 3. The amount of annual particulate organic matter (POM) deposition in the traps was 1320.2±758.5 gm-2 y-1 and consisted of 25% large particles (CPOM). Allochthonous litter comprised an important fraction of CPOM, and its breakdown rate changed with the plant species, site and season. Loss rate of CPOM accumulated at the lake bottom was significantly related with the mass loss rate of reed and cordgrass litter, but not with that of seagrass. 4. Due to slow litter breakdown and tidal landward advection, the lake acted as a sediment trap for allochthonous matter, especially from Posidonia. The important role of marine-derived litter in organic matter sedimentation suggests addressing conservation strategies of the lake functioning towards the selective control of allochthonous CPOM inputs, in particular at the mouth where the incoming tide brings suspended material and salinity decelerates matter flow to the sea and decomposition. This study supports the hypothesis that sedimentation and decomposition dynamics are important factors for coastal lake evolution, and shows litterbag and sediment trap techniques as simple useful investigation tools in management strategies aiming at conserving transitional waters.© 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,566-574,,5,19,,Aquatic Conserv.

The aim of the present work was to evaluate the marine litter present in the coralligenous habitat of the Marine Protected Area (MPA) Isole Ciclopi (Sicily, Italy). Through the analysis of frames obtained by Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROV) videos, data on the type of marine litter, grade of organisms' coverage, litter-organism interactions, and seabed coverage of items were gained. Through ROV surveys, a low number of marine litter items was observed and most of them were fishing gears. On the found items there was a high degree of organisms' coverage, which suggests that probably the marine litter was abandoned or lost since a long time. Overall, it was observed that in recent years the fishing activity in the MPA has not affected the coralligenous habitat. The present study represents a baseline for future monitoring programmes, which will be useful to develop protection measures and sustainable fishing, in order to preserve the coralligenous habitat of the MPA. © 2020 by the authors.",,,,9,8,,J.

As a result, there have been recent advances in exploiting spatially explicit data to develop spatially explicit management policies, such as networks of marine protected areas (MPAs). However, when data are sparse, spatially explicit policies become less viable, and we must instead rely on blunt policies such as total allowable catches or imprecisely configured networks of MPAs. Therefore, spatial information has the potential to change management approaches and thus has value. We develop a general framework within which to analyze the value of information for spatial fisheries management and apply that framework to several US Pacific coast fisheries. We find that improved spatial information can increase fishery value significantly (>10% in our simulations), and that it changes dramatically the efficient management approach - switching from diffuse effort everywhere to a strategy where fishing is spatially targeted, with some areas under intensive harvest and others closed to fishing. Using all available information, even when incomplete, is essential to management success and may as much as double fishery value relative to using (admittedly incorrect) assumptions commonly invoked.",,18294-18299,,43,107,,Proc.

There was a substantial but non-significant increase in overall fish abundance inside marine reserves compared to adjacent, non-reserve areas. When only species that are the target of fisheries were considered, fish abundance was significantly higher (by 28%) within reserve boundaries. Marine reserves vary significantly in the extent and direction of their response. This variability in relative abundance was not attributable to differences in survey methodology among studies, nor correlated with reserve characteristics such as reserve area, years since protection, latitude nor species diversity. The effectiveness of marine reserves in enhancing fish abundance may be largely related to the intensity of exploitation outside reserve boundaries and to the composition of the fish community within boundaries.

For example, by acting as source populations, MPAs may provide a spillover of adults/propagules, enhancing recruitment to surrounding, non-protected waters. However, such positive effect will depend on how a MPAs design matches population biology and dispersal abilities of the target species. High levels of intraspecific genetic diversity without pronounced structure have been found in many marine organisms over large spatial scales (from hundreds to thousands kilometres) but do not hold for other ecologically and economically important species such as coral reef fishes, seagrasses and kelps. In particular, the limited potential for dispersal of many macroalgae suggests the occurrence of self-sustaining, ""closed"" populations that contrast with the ""open"" populations of many fishes and invertebrates. Consequently, the high resilience of fish/invertebrate populations cannot be generalized to the whole marine realm. In the present work, we use genetic tools to explore the role of the MPA Parc naturel marin d'Iroise in the management of the emblematic kelp Laminaria digitata. While kelps have received much more scientific attention than any other seaweed group, there is still critical baseline knowledge which needs to be addressed for their effective management. Our genetic survey of 12 L. digitata populations along the Brittany coast, four of them located within the boundaries of the Parc naturel marin d'Iroise, allowed us to assess the conservation value of these kelp populations. In particular, classical genetic metrics as well as more recent clustering approaches were used to identify and characterize Management Units. Moreover, assignment tests were employed to determine contemporary migration events and source/sink populations. Our results show that populations within this MPA have high conservation value.

Based on individual monitoring from morning to evening of wild chimpanzees in and around a protected area, we showed that the availability of maize at the forest edge had little effect on their activity budget by less resting and no impact on their wild diet and energy expenditure. In this area, large, caloric wild fruits are available year-round, and we observed no behavioral or dietary changes regarding wild resource availability either. Thus, the chimpanzees consume maize opportunistically as a bonus treat in their diet, and the presence of this nutritious resource does not seem to affect their role in seed dispersal and forest regeneration. Frugivorous primates have developed several strategies to deal with wild fruit scarcity, such as modifying their activity budget or enlarging their diet. Agricultural expansion threatens primate habitats and populations (e.g., disease transmission, agrochemical exposure), but it also increases crop feeding opportunities. We aimed at understanding whether maize presence close to the natural habitat of chimpanzees, a threatened species, would lead to significant behavioral modifications. We monitored 20 chimpanzees over 37 months in Kibale National Park, Uganda, with maize gardens at the forest edge. Based on focal nest-to-nest data, we analyzed their diet, activity budget, and energy balance depending on wild fruit and maize availability. We found that the Sebitoli area is a highly nutritive habitat for chimpanzees, with large and caloric wild fruits available all year long. The chimpanzees opportunistically consume maize and exploit it by resting less during maize season. However, no significant variation was found in daily paths and energy expenditures according to maize availability. No behavioral or energy modification was observed regarding wild resources either. Despite the availability of nutritious domestic resources, chimpanzees still exploit wild fruits and do not limit their movements.

The condition of reefs was highly variable, with a range in live coral cover between 6% and 60% and target fishery species biomass between 20 and 500 kg per ha. The vulnerability assessment of reefs to future coral bleaching and their exposure to fishing, soil erosion and river pollution in Mohéli Marine Park found that offshore sites around the islets south of the island were least likely to be impacted by these negative pressures. The high variability in both reef condition and vulnerability across reefs in the Park lends itself to spatially explicit conservation actions. However, it is noteworthy that climate impacts to date appear moderate and that local human pressures are not having a major impact on components of reef health and recovery, suggesting these reefs are relatively resilient to the current anthropogenic stresses that they are experiencing. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd; Le blanchiment du corail et les diverses pressions humaines ont dégradé les récifs coralliens de l'archipel des Comores au cours des 40 derničres années et il est prévu que l'augmentation de la concentration de CO2 dans l'atmosphčre va nuire davantage aux habitats marins.

This message matches perfectly the main attributes associated to Rodna Mountains National Park, as it is the second national park in Romanian. The aim of the research is to identify and analyze the prospects for sustainable development of rural tourism in the area of Rodna Mountains National Park, taking into account its impact on the social and economic life of the inhabitants of the Rodna commune, but also factors that may positively or negatively influence the whole process. From a methodological perspective, quantitative methods were used; a survey-based research was carried out among Romanian mountain tourists, aiming at identifying and analyzing their opinions and suggestions regarding tourism in protected areas in Romania, as well as the impact of the tourist flows generated by the Park upon the surrounding communities. Rodna Mountains National Park seems to be among the favorite destinations of tourists, as the respondents have a good and very good general impression about the interaction with the mountain and protected areas, prefer internal to external destinations regardless of the season, budgets allocated per night, per stay and annually are quite high, so the purchasing power is also high; they constitute a solid foundation for the decisions of the tourist development of the area. The need for holidays and the savings that tourists make throughout the year to go on vacation, regardless of income level, give viability to this opportunity. Other results of this research are related to the problems tourists helped to identify and the solutions they proposed. © 2021 by the authors.

Researchers have attempted to quantify how these various threats impact different coastal ecosystems, and more recently have focused on understanding the cumulative impact from multiple threats. Here, the top threats to coastal marine ecosystems and recent efforts to understand their relative importance, ecosystem-level impacts, cumulative effects, and how they can best be managed and mitigated, are briefly reviewed. Results of threat analysis and rankings will differ depending on the conservation target (e.g., vulnerable species, pristine ecosystems, mitigatable threats), scale of interest (local, regional, or global), whether externalities are considered, and the types of management tools available (e.g., marine-protected areas versus ecosystem-based management). Considering the cumulative effect of multiple threats has only just begun and depends on spatial analysis to predict overlapping threats and a better understanding of multiple-stressor effects and interactions. Emerging conservation practices that hold substantial promise for protecting coastal marine systems include multisector approaches, such as ecosystem-based management (EBM), that account for ecosystem service valuation; comprehensive spatial management, such as ocean zoning; and regulatory mechanisms that encourage or require cross-sector goal setting and evaluation. In all cases, these efforts require a combination of public and private initiatives for success.

However, the “no take” status of marine reserves oftentimes precludes repeated sampling within their borders and, as a result, our current understanding of the capacity of marine reserves to restore historical body-size distributions remains almost entirely reliant on independent, static visual surveys. To overcome this challenge, we promote the application of a traditional fisheries tool known as a “back-calculation”, which allows for the estimation of fish body lengths from otolith annuli distances. This practical application was pursued in this study, using data collected in five marine reserves and adjacent fished reefs in the Philippines, to investigate spatiotemporal disparities in length-at-age of the brown surgeonfish, Acanthurus nigrofuscus. The spatial component of our analyses revealed that 1) A. nigrofuscus were phenotypically similar between marine reserves and fished reefs during their early life history; 2) marine reserve and fished reef populations diverged into significantly different length-at-age morphs between ages three and six, in which protected fish were predominantly larger than conspecifics in fished reefs; and 3) A. nigrofuscus returned to a state of general phenotypic similarity during later life. The temporal component of our analyses revealed that younger generations of A. nigrofuscus exhibited significant, positive year effects that were maintained until age eight, indicating that, within the significant age cohorts, younger generations were significantly larger than older generations.

Factors hypothesized to influence success include intrinsic community characteristics, project input levels, and change agent characteristics. An empirical analysis of these hypotheses was conducted using a sample of 24 villages in North Sulawesi, Indonesia, where marine reserves were in early phases of establishment. Factors found to influence the rate of progress were village complexity, level of development, project input levels, characteristics of community organizers, and degree of community organizer homophily relative to the community. These findings are important for community-based marine conservation initiatives conducting simultaneous interventions in multiple communities. It provides insights in how project strategies can be adjusted to increase the probability of success, obtain economies of scale, target communities more amenable to community-based interventions and result in a better return on project investments.

While efforts have recently began to establish monitoring programs in the region, a range of historical, marine-related environmental measurements already exist, derived from satellite-based observations. The goal of this paper was to use long-term datasets for key variables to provide qualitative insights (i.e. descriptive oceanography) of climatological conditions and interannual variability in the Pacific Panama region. These are underpinned with numerical assessments, providing an important baseline for ongoing and future studies, particularly in the Coiba Island/Gulf of Chiriqui region. In particular, we examined 20 years (January 2003-December 2022) of wind stress, sea surface temperature (SST), and chlorophyll-a (Chl-a), spanning the neritic and pelagic regions of the Pacific Panama coast. During the dry season (northern winter), the well-known, seasonal, regional Panama wind jet appeared across the Gulf of Panama, leading to surface mixing and SST cooling that eventually extended across most of the Panama Bight. West of the Azuero Peninsula, SST increased and surface warming extended further offshore from January through April. The SST in the Gulf of Chiriqui during this period was about 1 °C warmer on average than east of Coiba Island. By July and August, offshore SST gradients became largely longitudinal, cooling occured across the season, and the SST on either side of Coiba Island was nearly the same. The influence of the Panama jet in the Gulf of Panama was clear in the Chl-a data as well, with upwelling-driven values peaking in February/March (up to 11 mg m-3, with a monthly climatological value of around 2 mg m-3 during this period). During the rest of the year, the Chl-a concentration in this region averaged around 0.5-1.0 mg m-3. In the Gulf of Chiriqui and the region east of Coiba Island, the climatological monthly averages were roughly 0.3-0.5 mg m-3 and 0.4-0.6 mg m-3, respectively. Somewhat surprisingly, very high Chl-a values were present in the satellite data for the Gulf of Chiriqui during May 2007 and June 2008, peaking at 16 mg m-3 and 32 mg m-3 at a location just west of Coiba Island, respectively. It remains unclear as to the cause of these apparent blooms. Even when the high Chl-a values were excluded in the calculation of climatological averages in the Gulf of Chiriqui, however, there is a suggestion of modest seasonality in Chl-a values, with slightly elevated values (~ 0.4 mg m-3) peaking around May and October. During the extreme El Nińo event of 2015-2016, the monthly-averaged SST along the Panama Pacific coast was warmer than average, with elevated levels of up to + 2 °C and lasting 12 months in the Gulf of Chiriqui. In the Gulf of Panama, the monthly-averaged SST anomalies were up to + 1.7 °C, although the temperatures returned to near-seasonal averages after roughly 5 months. © 2024, National Institute of Fisheries Research and Development.

Ninety interviews were conducted with riverine people in the vicinity of Anavilhanas National Park, Tapajós-Arapiuns Extractive Reserve and Tapajós National Forest in the Brazilian Amazon, with the aim to increase knowledge of the feeding habits of the Amazonian manatee Trichechus inunguis and evaluate its conservation status in contrasting protected areas. In Anavilhanas respondents identified 31 plant species consumed by the manatee, of which vines had the highest cognitive salience index value (the summed importance of each plant species), even though they are available to manatees only during the high-water season. In the Tapajós region 37 plant species were identified, with submerged species with floating leaves being the main component of the manatee's diet. Although hunting has declined it still occurs in Anavilhanas, which is susceptible to environmental crimes because of its proximity to urban centres. Manatee hunting seems to be infrequent in the Tapajós region, having little impact on the population. Given the broad knowledge within the local community about the Amazonian manatee, involvement of riverine people in manatee conservation activities is fundamental for reducing threats and increasing conservation effectiveness. © 2020 Cambridge University Press.

We used meta-analysis to synthesise 4444 samples from 30 years (1987–2017) of fish surveys inside and outside a large network of highly protected reserves in the Ningaloo Marine Park, Western Australia, where the major fishing activity is recreational. Data were collected by different agencies, using varied survey designs and sampling methods. We contrasted the relative abundance and biomass of target and non-target fish groups between fished and reserve locations. We considered the influence of, and possible interactions between, seven additional variables: age and size of reserve, one of two reserve network configurations, reef habitat type, recreational fishing activity, shore-based fishing regulations and survey method. Taxa responded differently: the abundance and biomass inside reserves relative to outside was higher for targeted lethrinids, while other targeted (and non-targeted) fish groups were indistinguishable. Reef habitat was important for explaining lethrinid response to protection, and this factor interacted with reserve size, such that larger reserves were demonstrably more effective in the back reef and lagoon habitats. There was little evidence of changes in relative abundance and biomass of fishes with reserve age, or after rezoning and expansion of the reserve network. Our study demonstrates the complexities in quantifying fishing effects, highlighting some of the key factors and interactions that likely underlie the varied results in reserve assessments that should be considered in future reserve design and assessment. © 2019",,514-524,,,237,,Biol.

We conducted a mixed-methods investigation of a contemporary migration of traditional fishers in western Madagascar, a country which has been expanding its protected area system through the establishment of both strict and multiple-use sites, and critically evaluate different models of marine protected area in light of our findings. Interviews with fishers in major destination areas revealed that most migrants come from southwest Madagascar, use non-motorised vessels, and principally target sharks and sea cucumbers. Drivers of the migration include both push and pull factors (i.e. declining resource availability in areas of origin and the continued availability of lucrative resources for export to China). Traditional fisher migrants cause limited social conflict with residents and a number of environmental problems in destination areas: however artisanal fishers with motorised vessels probably represent a greater threat to marine resources than migrants, due to their greater harvesting capacity. We suggest that multiple-use arrangements may be more appropriate than strict protected areas in both source and destination areas, because they integrate the interests of migrants rather than marginalising them: however seascape-scale management provides the best approach for managing the threats and opportunities provided by the migration at the appropriate scale. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.",,49-62,,,74,,Geoforum,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,artisanal fishery; Chondrichthyes; CLIMATE-CHANGE; Community-based natural resource management; CONSERVATION; Customary institutions; EXPERIENCES; Holothuroidea; KNOWLEDGE; Locally managed marine areas (LMMA); Madagascar; migration; natural resource; POPULATION; Population-environment relationship; protected area; REEF; REMOTE COMMUNITIES; resource management; RESOURCE-MANAGEMENT; Small-scale fisheries; social conflict; SOUTHWEST MADAGASCAR; SYSTEMS; Trade,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

To limit biodiversity losses and avert the worst effects of climate disruption, we must greatly expand nature protection while simultaneously downsizing and transforming human systems. The conservation initiative Nature Needs Half (or Half Earth), calling for the conservation of half the Earth's land and seas, is commensurate with the enormous challenges we face. Critics have objected to this initiative as harboring hardship for people near protected areas and for failing to confront the growth economy as the main engine of global ecological destruction. In response to the first criticism, we affirm that conservation policies must be designed and implemented in collaboration with Indigenous and local communities. In response to the second criticism, we argue that protecting half the Earth needs to be complemented by downscaling and reforming economic life, humanely and gradually reducing the global population, and changing food production and consumption. By protecting nature generously, and simultaneously contracting and transforming the human enterprise, we can create the conditions for achieving justice and well-being for both people and other species. If we fail to do so, we instead accept a chaotic and impoverished world that will be dangerous for us all.

Systematic conservation planning (SCP) aims to improve the efficiency of biodiversity conservation, particularly when addressing internationally agreed protection targets. We apply SCP in Great Britain (GB) using the widest taxonomic coverage to date (4,447 species), compare spatial prioritisation results across 18 taxa and use projected future (2080) distributions to assess the potential impact of climate change on PA network effectiveness. Priority conservation areas were similar among multiple taxa, despite considerable differences in spatial species richness patterns; thus systematic prioritisations based on indicator taxa for which data are widely available are still useful for conservation planning. We found that increasing the number of protected hectads by 2% (to reach the 2020 17% Aichi target) could have a disproportionate positive effect on species protected, with an increase of up to 17% for some taxa. The PA network in GB currently under-represents priority species but, if the potential future distributions under climate change are realised, the proportion of species distributions protected by the current PA network may increase, because many PAs are in northern and higher altitude areas. Optimal locations for new PAs are particularly concentrated in southern and upland areas of GB. This application of SCP shows how a small addition to an existing PA network could have disproportionate benefits for species conservation. © 2022, The Author(s).",,683-702,,2,31,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,ASSOCIATIONS; Bayesian occupancy modelling; biodiversity; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; EXPANSION; habitat restoration; Habitat restoration; IMPACTS; LAND-USE; NETWORKS; PROGRESS; protected area; RESERVES; Spatial prioritisation; Species range shifts; SURROGACY; TAXONOMIC GROUPS; United Kingdom; zonation; Zonation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Understanding the patterns and extent of illegal activities is therefore essential for effective law enforcement and prevention of biodiversity declines. We used extensive data, commonly collected by ranger patrols in many protected areas, and Bayesian hierarchical models to identify drivers, trends, and distribution of multiple illegal activities within the Queen Elizabeth Conservation Area (QECA), Uganda. Encroachment (e.g., by pastoralists with cattle) and poaching of noncommercial animals (e.g., snaring bushmeat) were the most prevalent illegal activities within the QECA. Illegal activities occurred in different areas of the QECA. Poaching of noncommercial animals was most widely distributed within the national park. Overall, ecological covariates, although significant, were not useful predictors for occurrence of illegal activities. Instead, the location of illegal activities in previous years was more important. There were significant increases in encroachment and noncommercial plant harvesting (nontimber products) during the study period (1999-2012). We also found significant spatiotemporal variation in the occurrence of all activities. Our results show the need to explicitly model ranger patrol effort to reduce biases from existing uncorrected or capture per unit effort analyses. Prioritization of ranger patrol strategies is needed to target illegal activities; these strategies are determined by protected area managers, and therefore changes at a site-level can be implemented quickly. These strategies should also be informed by the location of past occurrences of illegal activity: the most useful predictor of future events. However, because spatial and temporal changes in illegal activities occurred, regular patrols throughout the protected area, even in areas of low occurrence, are also required. © 2015, Society for Conservation Biology.",,1458-1470,,5,29,,Conserv.

For over 13 years, we collected bushmeat market data in the Malabo market, recording over 35,000 primate carcasses, documenting “mardi gras” consumption patterns, seasonal carcass availability, and negative effects resulting from government intervention. We also conducted forest surveys throughout Bioko's two protected areas in order to localize and quantify primate populations and hunting pressure. Using these data, we were able to document the significant negative impact bushmeat hunting had on monkey populations, estimate which species are most vulnerable to hunting, and develop ecological niche models to approximate the distribution of each of Bioko's diurnal primate species. These results also have allowed for the identification of primate hotspots, such as the critically important southwest region of the Gran Caldera Scientific Reserve, and thus, priority areas for conservation on Bioko, leading to more comprehensive conservation recommendations. Current and future efforts now focus on bridging the gap between investigators and legislators in order to develop and effectively implement a management plan for Bioko's Gran Caldera Scientific Reserve and to develop a targeted educational campaign to reduce demand by changing consumer attitudes toward bushmeat.

Ecological restoration of fisheries needs to be promoted, inter alia through improved enforcement, but, which method is the most successful at improving fish stocks, as well as having the highest economic returns? We compare one open-loop (without feedback) and three closed-loop (with feedback) benefit-cost models representing different restoration interventions aimed at promoting compliance. The hybrid systems methodology has been utilized, combining system dynamics, systems archetypes, mathematical differential equations and economic benefit-cost methodologies. The model is tested with reference to a case study of abalone (Haliotis midae) biomass restoration in the Table Mountain National Park marine area (Zone E), Cape Town. Stocks in Zone E have dropped to below the government's management threshold for sustainable fisheries of 20 percent of the pre-fished levels, and urgent action is required to restore the stocks. According to the model, all proposed restoration interventions produce stock recovery to 100 percent of carrying capacity, well in excess of government targets of 40 percent. Also, all four models had a net present value of greater than zero, indicating substantial positive net benefits to restoration. Each model had specific management recommendations associated with it- greater involvement by the state, capital investment in restoration, changing poacher behavior and entrepreneurship. Although the Post Keynesian and Institutional model produced the highest net returns to restoration over 80 years (Net present value = US$12.66 million at a 6 % discount rate, 2021 prices), all the models are essentially co-evolutionary models, and have merit over different time periods, compliance rates and assumptions around discount rates. While the case study is developed for abalone the findings of the model are likely to be applicable in a wide range of fishery restoration contexts.",,,,,11,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000951124500001,,,,,,,abalone (Haliotis midae); CHALLENGES; COASTAL; ECOLOGICAL RESTORATION; economics; ECONOMICS; ECOSYSTEM SERVICES; hybrid system; MARINE PROTECTED AREA; MOVEMENT; poaching; POPULATIONS; restoration; schools of thought; SOUTH-AFRICA WORKING; SUSTAINABILITY; system dynamic model; wildlife crime,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This article examines how mitigation banking has been applied in the USA in the implementation of the no-net-loss of wetlands federal policy, and how it could be adapted as part of a strategic management plan in the UK. The principles of mitigation banking require that habitats are restored or recreated in advance of development to compensate for forthcoming displacement, thus generating credits representing the value of the restored habitat. To satisfy regulatory requirements, developers withdraw debits from the bank, i.e. buy credits to compensate for the habitats displaced on the development site. This article argues that, given the feasibility of restoring certain ecosystems in the UK coastal zone, with sufficient regulation by conservation agencies and thorough scientific investigation, mitigation banking could provide a potential mechanism to compensate for incremental losses of habitat.

The South Australian Government is committed to establishing a comprehensive, adequate and representative system of 19 marine protected areas (MPAs) by 2010. Each MPA will be the target for detailed investigations into its biophysical, ecological, social, economic and cultural assets. The aim is to use this information to delineate each MPA into a series of zones that offer various levels of protection and use. At the highest level all marine use and extraction activities will be excluded to allow maximum protection of species diversity and habitat. Community consultation and collaboration is therefore critical for successful MPA establishment. A demand exists for the development of a process that allows public participation within a conservation planning environment. The concept of excluding certain activities, including recreational fishing, has generated much interest in the local media. Recent headlines such as 'Calls to Shelve Marine Parks', 'Anglers Fight For Future of Jetty Fishing' and '330+ Submissions on MPA Proposal' demonstrate the importance of open consultation and the need to provide an inclusive and transparent decision-making process for the design of MPAs. A decision support tool can facilitate decision-making within a negotiating and conflict resolution environment. We have collated and processed a large database of spatial layers describing the biophysical and human-use features of the marine environment. The biophysical data was then used to identify surrogate ecological regions within the Encounter Pilot MPA. The datasets were categorised into classes describing bathymetry, sea surface temperature, chlorophyll 'a' concentration levels, benthic and coastal habitat types, and shoreline exposure and type. Locations that most efficiently represent these surrogates of biodiversity were selected using a common mathematical integer programming optimisation algorithm. Established conservation planning principles underpin this research. Inputs into OSS are a suite of environmental, social, cultural and economic datasets. Optimal solutions are found using integer programming algorithms. Implementation is within a Geographic Information System environment (ESRI's ArcGIS) and third-party commercial software (ILOG's CPLEX) provides the optimisation engine. The user interface of OSS can be accessed through a toolbar button and comprises a series of input modules. Fields are quick and easy to populate and in many cases are read directly from an ArcGIS map document Table of Contents. Solutions are found in less than 1 minute when using datasets described in this paper This paper briefly demonstrates the application of systematic conservation planning to optimal MPA design and the development of OSS, and explores options for public participation. We demonstrate how OSS and systematic conservation planning can be taken to the wider community to produce on-the-fly outputs. Our novel approach has the potential to build partnerships with community groups and give the community a sense of ownership in the decision-making process. It is more likely that conflicts will be minimised and negotiation hastened for a better MPA zoning outcome for all.",,1525-1531,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: MODSIM - Int.

These existing systems offer varying levels of integration and interactivity. However, these systems generate solutions that are sub-optimal. Integer programming (IP) optimisation techniques guarantee optimal solutions but have been criticised for excessively long or intractable solution times. Modern IP software has addressed this criticism by finding solutions in quick time. The aim in using IP techniques in this paper is to design conservation reserves that are of the minimum possible area to satisfy defined conservation targets, thereby producing reserve systems of greatest efficiency. The Conservation Reserve Evaluation and Design Optimisation System (CREDOS) is a fully integrated SDSS that calls on a third-party optimiser to generate solutions. We attempt to provide a foundation for a viable alternative to existing systems by tightly coupling CREDOS with a proprietary geographic information system (GIS) and IP analytical software by means of an interactive interface. It provides conservation planners with a fully featured planning system for both terrestrial and marine conservation reserves that is easy to use, offers high levels of interactivity and flexibility, and produces practical and efficient solutions that can be used to support their experience and judgement. This paper describes the methodology used in the design and construction of CREDOS, and discusses the effectiveness of the system in facilitating the planning of conservation reserves. The functionality of CREDOS is assessed in the context of designing Marine Protected Areas (MPAs).

However, several pressure such as losses and alterations of habitats are ongoing and in order to increase conservation in this sea region, many marine protected areas were established, including Natura 2000 sites. The latter are areas designated under the Habitat and Bird Directives for the conservation of species in need of strict protection, so that they can reach a favourable conservation status. Species conservation status is also assessed through the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) Red List of Threatened Species. The aim of our study was to test whether IUCN Red List and the related Red List Index RLI (which aggregates in a single value all the information on conservation status of a particular set of species) can be used as a metrics to characterize MPAs, and orienting, consequently, local marine conservation policies. A pilot study was undertaken in the six Sicilian MPAs (Marine Protected Areas) and results highlighted that Egadi Island has a low RLI value (meaning that the MPA hosts many species with a threatened status) while the Capo Gallo MPA, at the opposite, as an high RLI value (i.e.less threatened species); the other four MPAs. Egadi, Pelagie, and Ustica showed similar distribution frequencies of Red List categories having similar RLI values. Biological resource use, natural system modifications, invasive species, and pollution all account for 90% of assessed threats. Outcomes of our study showed that IUCN indicators should be considered as a tool to: assess the conservation status of set of species in protected areas; drive prioritization in the decision process in order to support an effective management conservation plan; designate new MPAs. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,119,,Ecol.

The study was designed considering possible negative effects induced by the city of Cananéia on the sediment quality of surrounding areas. This evaluation was performed using chemical and ecotoxicological analyses. Sediments were predominantly sandy, with low CaCO3 contents. Amounts of organic matter varied, but higher contents occurred closer to the city, as well as did Fe and Total Recoverable Oils and Greases (TROGs) concentrations. Contamination by Cd and Cu was revealed in some samples, while concentrations of Zn were considered low. Chronic toxicity was detected in all tested sediments and acute toxicity occurred only in sediments collected near the city. The principal component analysis (PCA) revealed an association among Cd, Cu, Fe, TROG, fines, organic matter, CaCO3, and chronic toxicity, whereas acute toxicity was found to be associated with Zn and mud. However, because Zn levels were low, acute toxicity was likely due to a contaminant that was not measured. Results show that there is a broad area within the CIP-PA that is under the influence of mining activities (chronic toxicity, moderate contamination by metals), whereas poorer conditions occur closer to Cananéia (acute toxicity); thus, the urban area seems to constitute a relevant source of contaminants for the estuarine complex.

Standard benthic survey data were normalized and combined in a conservation priority index (CPI) which rates individual candidate sites according to their ecological values and their potential contributions to an effective network. The CPI differentiates between sites on the basis of strength or weakness of surrogates for desirable attributes such as benthic biodiversity, reef-building capacity and hard-coral resilience. Biodiversity and reef-building attributes (more is better) were assigned progressive weightings (high abundance, high score), whereas neutral or detrimental attributes (less is better) were assigned regressive weightings (high abundance, low score). Abundance of small corals (new recruits and remnants) was included as an indicator of a site's potential for recovery following disturbance. The CPI rankings were used in conjunction with multidimensional scaling to prioritize candidate sites for a proposed reserve network near Salvador, Brazil. The information is complementary to considerations of existing uses and socio-economic considerations, in the prioritization of reefs for protection. The approach ensured that ecological inputs to the broader marine spatial planning process embraced both representativeness of biodiversity per se and the investigator's evaluation of key qualitative site attributes (amount, size, and resilience indicators for the critical architectural components hard coral and encrusting coralline algae). © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,223-234,,2,25,,Aquatic Conserv.

Bald eagles, ospreys and great blue herons began repatriating Voyageurs National Park, USA, in the mid-20th century. However, after 1990, only eagles continued their recovery, while osprey and heron recovery failed for unknown reasons. We aimed to evaluate whether top-down effects of bald eagles and bottom-up effects of inclement weather, habitat quality and fish resources contributed to the failed recovery of ospreys and herons in a protected area. We quantified the relative influence of top-down and bottom-up factors on nest colonization, persistence (i.e., nest reuse) and success for ospreys, and occurrence and size of heronries using 26 years (1986–2012) of spatially explicit monitoring data coupled with multi-response hierarchical models and Bayesian variable selection approaches. Bald eagles were previously shown to recover faster due to intensive nest protection and management. Increased numbers of eagles were associated with a reduction in the numbers of osprey nests, their nesting success and heronry size, while higher local densities of nesting eagles deterred heronries nearby. We found little evidence of bottom-up limitations on the failed recovery of herons and ospreys. We present a conservation conundrum: bald eagles are top predators and a flagship species of conservation that have benefited from intensive protection, but this likely hindered the recovery of ospreys and herons. Returning top predators, or rewilding, is widely promoted as a conservation strategy for top-down ecosystem recovery, but managing top predators in isolation of jointly recovering species can halt or reverse ecosystem recovery. Previous studies warn of the potential consequences of ignoring biotic interactions amongst recovering species, but we go further by quantifying how these interactions contributed to failed recoveries via impacts on the nesting demography of jointly recovering species. Multi-species management is paramount to realizing the ecosystem benefits of top predator recovery. © 2019 The Authors.

The lagoon belongs to the Natura 2000 network. Its main objectives were to monitor aquatic bird species before, during, and after a desorption intervention on this lagoon. Monitoring of waterfowl was carried out to evaluate the monthly variation of birds in Barrinha, in order to obtain useful information for region’s management and planning, as well as for species preservation. In experimental design, it was decided to perform four counts per month in each pond (weekly), to evaluate the effect of increased monitoring effort in relation to previous years. The results revealed that the study area has a significant importance as a wintering zone for water birds. Some species have stable resident populations which, seasonally, see their numbers vary with migratory birds arrival and departure. Another purpose was to verify the influence of desorption intervention on the usual number of individuals by species.

The use of freshwater protected areas has been advocated but their efficiency has never been assessed. In this study, we investigated whether the population structure and the silver eel (mature migrating stage) production differ in fished and protected areas within a marsh wetland (Bričre, 7000 ha, Northwest France), using an intensive biological study (electrofishing and trapping) and a survey of the traditional fishery (licenses, questionnaires and creel surveys). First, we found that fishermen mainly targeted >320-mm yellow eels (sedentary stage) using pots and square dipping nets and that harvest by fishermen was highly variable at different locations in the study area. Secondly, we found differences in the size-class structures and mortality rates between protected and fished areas. Mortality rates of eels >320 mm was positively correlated with harvest by fishermen. Furthermore, the proportion of potentially migrating eels in the total population was found to be higher in the protected areas than in fished areas (6.38% vs. 1.42%, respectively). Thirdly, we found that protected areas potentially produce 8.4% of the total silver eel production whereas they only account for 2.4% of the aquatic habitat area. We estimated that a size adjustment of protected areas to 31.1% with maintaining the current fishery would produce 50% of the potential silver eel of a fully protected marsh. Protection of freshwater areas appears to be a promising management measure and a constructive consensual way to integrate the patrimonial and societal value of the traditional fishery and the international management plans for European eels. Furthermore, freshwater protective measures can be an effective local solution if they are integrated into the framework of freshwater biodiversity management and accompanied by other management measures that focus on all eel life stages. © 2007 Blackwell Munksgaard.",,528-538,,4,16,,Ecol.

Yet, researchers and managers are divided regarding the effectiveness of these measures. The ""tragedy of the commons"" model is often accepted as a universal paradigm, which assumes that unless managed by the State or privatized, common-pool resources are inevitably overexploited due to conflicts between the self-interest of individuals and the goals of a group as a whole. Under this paradigm, the emergence and maintenance of effective community-based efforts that include cooperative risky decisions as the establishment of marine reserves could not occur. In this paper, we question these assumptions and show that outcomes of commons dilemmas can be complex and scale-dependent. We studied the evolution and effectiveness of a community-based management effort to establish, monitor, and enforce a marine reserve network in the Gulf of California, Mexico. Our findings build on social and ecological research before (1997-2001), during (2002) and after (2003-2004) the establishment of marine reserves, which included participant observation in >100 fishing trips and meetings, interviews, as well as fishery dependent and independent monitoring. We found that locally crafted and enforced harvesting rules led to a rapid increase in resource abundance. Nevertheless, news about this increase spread quickly at a regional scale, resulting in poaching from outsiders and a subsequent rapid cascading effect on fishing resources and locally-designed rule compliance. We show that cooperation for management of common-pool fisheries, in which marine reserves form a core component of the system, can emerge, evolve rapidly, and be effective at a local scale even in recently organized fisheries. Stakeholder participation in monitoring, where there is a rapid feedback of the systems response, can play a key role in reinforcing cooperation. However, without cross-scale linkages with higher levels of governance, increase of local fishery stocks may attract outsiders who, if not restricted, will overharvest and threaten local governance. Fishers and fishing communities require incentives to maintain their management efforts. Rewarding local effective management with formal cross-scale governance recognition and support can generate these incentives. © 2009 Cudney-Bueno, Basurto.",,,,7,4,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,article; conservation biology; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; cooperation; Cooperative Behavior; environmental economics; environmental exploitation; environmental management; environmental protection; Fisheries; fishery management; food industry; law enforcement; leadership; Leadership; marine environment; Mexico; participatory management,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

It is argued that they can protect ecosystems and also benefit fisheries via density-dependent spillover of adults and enhanced larval dispersal into fishing areas. However, while evidence has shown that marine reserves can meet conservation targets, their effects on fisheries are less understood. In particular, the basic question of if and over what temporal and spatial scales reserves can benefit fished populations via larval dispersal remains unanswered. We tested predictions of a larval transport model for a marine reserve network in the Gulf of California, Mexico, via field oceanography and repeated density counts of recently settled juvenile commercial mollusks before and after reserve establishment. We show that local retention of larvae within a reserve network can take place with enhanced, but spatially-explicit, recruitment to local fisheries. Enhancement occurred rapidly (2 yrs), with up to a three-fold increase in density of juveniles found in fished areas at the downstream edge of the reserve network, but other fishing areas within the network were unaffected. These findings were consistent with our model predictions. Our findings underscore the potential benefits of protecting larval sources and show that enhancement in recruitment can be manifested rapidly. However, benefits can be markedly variable within a local seascape. Hence, effects of marine reserve networks, positive or negative, may be overlooked when only focusing on overall responses and not considering finer spatially-explicit responses within a reserve network and its adjacent fishing grounds. Our results therefore call for future research on marine reserves that addresses this variability in order to help frame appropriate scenarios for the spatial management scales of interest. © 2009 Cudney-Bueno et al.",,,,1,4,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"animal; Animals; article; biology; Conservation of Natural Resources; environmental monitoring; environmental protection; Fisheries; fishery; food industry; geography; Geography; growth, development and aging; larva; Larva; Marine Biology; marine environment; marine species; methodology; Mexico; mollusc; Mollusca; nonhuman; oceanography; physiology; prediction; sample size; Sample Size",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Studies about the permanence of natural protected areas are important, because they contribute to the promotion of the conservation target and to optimize economical and human resources of specific areas. Although there are no natural protected areas in Guerrero, it has suitable habitat for the jaguar, a common species used for planning and management of conservation areas. Since, there is actual evidence that environmental and anthropogenic variables may modify vertebrate species distribution with time, in this study we predicted the potential distribution of Panthera onca using MaxEnt for this Southeastern region. In addition, we made a projection considering the effect of a moderate climate change scenario, to evaluate the stability of the conservation area for a period of 24 years. Furthermore, we applied three threat scenarios for the actual prediction to define conservation priorities areas. In our results, we have found that 18 361Km2 (29%) of this state has a permanent suitable habitat for jaguar conservation in the Sierra Madre del Sur and Pacific coast, with a possible loss of 2 000km2 in 24 years. This habitat is characterized by a 56% of temperate forest (mainly conifers and hardwoods 34%), and 35% of tropical deciduous forest. With the projections, the Southeastern region resulted with the higher anthropogenic impacts, while at the same time, an area of 7 900km2 in the Central-Western state was determined as a priority for conservation. To assure jaguar conservation, we propose the inclusion of this new conservation area, which is located in the Sierra Madre del Sur, with which we may potentially preserve other 250 species of threatened vertebrates.

Despite national and subnational conservation strategies developed in Ecuador to conserve its biodiversity in the long run, including the National System of Protected Areas (PANE) and the forest conservation incentive program SocioBosque (PSB), further actions are needed to mitigate and reverse the effects of threats for the persistence of biodiversity. This study was designed to identify the most important areas for biodiversity conservation in mainland Ecuador that can contribute to preserving key species (i.e. endemic, threatened) and ecosystems in the wider landscape, thus complementing current conservation efforts (i.e. PANE). Species distribution models and recent maps were used to identify a set of 744 species and 87 ecosystems as surrogates of the country’s biodiversity. Marxan, a systematic reserve selection algorithm was used to identify important biodiversity areas that could represent between 10% and 20% of the remnant distribution of the surrogates. The optimized solution generated by Marxan included 24% (3.64 million ha) of Ecuador?s remnant vegetation, of which 35% is within the current national protected area system and 13% (456 000 ha) are included within SocioBosque communal and private conservation agreements. Major conservation shortfalls of the PANE were concentrated in the Southern Andes, Central Amazonia, and the Central and Southern portions of the Coastal plain. The incidence of complementary criteria to prioritize conservation strategies, related to climate change, ecosystem conversion, carbon and accessibility, and population density change in relation to the important biodiversity areas was heterogeneous among regions. This confirms the need to implement differentiated conservation and sustainable landscape management strategies. Fourteen priority landscapes were identified based on these important biodiversity areas, including remnant ecosystems considered critical for maintaining large-scale connectivity among regions and preservation of restricted range and threatened species. Further work is needed to expand base information about distribution patterns of biodiversity, improve the representation of endemic and threatened species in conservation strategies, and to fully integrate conservation priorities among a wider set of goals in land use planning exercises at different scales. © 2017, © 2017 Condesan.

Considering that the final aim of this project is to produce a core set of Environmental Sensitivity Indices (ESI) maps for the Italian system of Marine and Coastal Protected Areas, the plan foresees the involvement of the Italian Coastguard for the ""in situ"" survey, to gather part of the data required for the compilation of the matrices, which are beforehand designed for the evaluation of Environmental Sensitivity Indices (ESI). Therefore, this paper proposes a set of guidelines for the Coastguard Officers in order to obtain unambiguous data for each protected zone and surrounding areas. In particular, the guidelines define univocally the various coastal typologies included in the context of the Mediterranean coastlines, giving a shoreline classification in terms of the sensitivity to oil spills, taking into consideration a number of natural, physical, biological and human factors. The guidelines include for each coastal typology: a short physical description, a possible prediction of oil diffusion and a possible response. Those guidelines have been successfully tested during an ""in situ"" survey, in the coastlines of Cilento and Vallo di Diano National Park.

This area is a Nature 2000 site and is considered to be a hotspot for European marine biodiversity. In 2005, the management plan of the park was implemented, ending several habitat menaces, thereby allowing an application to the LIFE—NATURE Programme. The LIFE-BIOMARES project aimed at the restoration and management of the biodiversity of the marine park through several actions. The restoration of the seagrass prairies that were completely destroyed by fishing activities and recreational boating, was one of the most challenging. It included the transplanting of seagrasses from donor populations and the germination of seagrass seeds for posterior plantation to maintain genetic diversity in the transplanted area. One of the most popular actions was the implementation of environmental friendly moorings to integrate recreational use of the area with environmental protection. Several dissemination and environmental education actions concerning the marine park and the project took place and contributed to the public increase of the park acceptance. The seabed habitats were mapped along the park and a surrounding area to 100 m depth in order to create a habitat cartography of the park and to help locate alternative fishing zones. Biodiversity assessments for macrofauna revealed seasonal variations and an effect of the protection status. Preliminary results are presented and show that the marine park regulations are having a positive effect on biodiversity conservation and sustainable fisheries, thereby showing that these kind of conservation projects are important to disseminate coastal conservation best practices. The Biomares project is a model project that can be followed in the implementation of marine reserves and the establishment of the Natura 2000 marine network. © 2014, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,643-655,,6,18,,J.

This review provides the most current summary from primary and grey literature on the biology and ecology of several coastal fishes of economic and ecological significance in south-east Australia; identifies key knowledge gaps which may impede the development of effective spatial management; and recommends future research directions and methods. Reviewed species are luderick (Girella tricuspidata), eastern rock blackfish (Girella elevata), yellowfin bream (Acanthopagrus australis), tarwhine (Rhabdosargus sarba), snapper (Pagrus auratus), red morwong (Cheilodactylus fuscus) and eastern blue grouper (Achoerodus viridis). The species have a diverse range of life-histories and population traits, and selected parameters were well studied in several species, such as growth (blue groper, luderick, yellowfin bream, tarwhine, snapper), post-settlement movement (red morwong), and larval ecology (yellowfin bream). However, empirical data on levels of pre- and post-settlement connectivity and real-time movements are not available for most species, and this represents a significant gap for improved spatial management. A multidisciplinary approach incorporating a range of methods including acoustic tracking and telemetry, otolith chemistry, intergenerational markers, and biophysical modelling will provide a more comprehensive understanding of life history parameters, movement and connectivity at scales relevant to MPA planning and monitoring. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,435-458,,4,23,,Rev.

Our aim was to develop an accurate map of demersal trawling intensity in South Africa and to demonstrate its utility at a national scale. We calculated a swept area ratio, representing demersal trawling effort for the entire study period (2005?2018) and annually. We then plotted spatial and temporal patterns of trawling activity, identified core fishing areas, and examined spatial overlap between trawling, South Africa’s marine ecosystem types and the national network of marine protected areas. A high proportion of trawling effort (90%) was concentrated in 43% of the area exposed to trawling, with the remaining 10% spread across 57% of the fished areas. The fishery overlaps with 33 of 150 benthic and bentho-pelagic marine ecosystem types. Of those, 11 have more than 50% of their extent, and five have more than 80%, within the trawl ring-fence. Our analyses support a systematic prioritisation of ecosystem types for further management and protection.

For this reason, the objective of the present work was to diagnose the population situation of the Peruvian Pelican in Chile, through the analysis of databases and perceptions of local ornithologists. Between the years 2010 and 2015 the abundance of Peruvian Pelican in Chile decreased significantly in the central zone of the country. There is seasonality in its presence, with greater abundances during the winter season. The perception of local ornithologists indicated a population increase towards the south of the country. Along the Chilean coast, 24 nesting sites of the Peruvian Pelican have been described, of which 29.1% are located inside of protected areas.

Successful MPAs ultimately depend on knowledge-based decision making, where scientific research is integrated into management actions. Fourteen coral reef MPA managers and sixteen academics from eleven research, state and federal government institutions each outlined at least five pertinent research needs for improving the management of MPAs situated in Australian coral reefs. From this list of 173 key questions, we asked members of each group to rank questions in order of urgency, redundancy and importance, which allowed us to explore the extent of perceptional mismatch and overlap among the two groups. Our results suggest the mismatch among MPA managers and academics is small, with no significant difference among the groups in terms of their respective research interests, or the type of questions they pose. However, managers prioritised spatial management and monitoring as research themes, whilst academics identified climate change, resilience, spatial management, fishing and connectivity as the most important topics. Ranking of the posed questions by the two groups was also similar, although managers were less confident about the achievability of the posed research questions and whether questions represented a knowledge gap. We conclude that improved collaboration and knowledge transfer among management and academic groups can be used to achieve similar objectives and enhance the knowledge-based management of MPAs. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,84-91,,,114,,J.

However, targets require a more nuanced view, where ecological effectiveness, biodiversity, representation, connectivity and ecosystem services must all be recognized. Furthermore, these targets must be achieved through equitable processes and produce equitable outcomes. This paper calls for a clearer definition of what is to be ‘counted’ in assessing progress in marine conservation, through the use of both traditionally defined marine protected areas and a limited subset of other equivalent areas. It calls for future effort to draw a clear distinction between non-extractive areas such as no-take marine reserves, and the more numerous extractive areas. To be considered protected, sites must be ecologically effective, and be equitably managed to support all stakeholders. Spatial extent of coverage is only one constituent part of conservation effort, however, and much greater effort is needed to ensure that sites are selected to achieve optimum conservation outcomes for biodiversity and for ecosystem services. The paper reviews some of the existing views and approaches to defining and delimiting marine protection priorities. It recommends that with a clearer set of metrics for defining protection, and for assessing progress and setting future targets, marine conservation will be better placed to achieve lasting outcomes, including halting biodiversity loss and securing or enhancing ecosystem service provision. Protected spaces will continue to play a major role in future oceans, but they also need to be configured within a wider spatial framework.

Understanding the geographic distribution of cryptic lineages, as well as the spatial patterns of admixture among them, can have important implications for conservation planning. Here, we explore patterns of divergence in a coral reef fish, the neon goby Elacatinus lori, across the species’ range. First, we use targeted amplicon sequencing to describe the spatial pattern of genetic divergence using two marker types (57 anonymous ddRAD-derived loci and mtDNA cytb). Second, we quantify the degree of admixture and hybridization between two previously-unidentified divergent lineages within Belize. Third, we assess whether the existing group of marine protected areas (MPAs) in Belize protects this cryptic genetic diversity. The results provide strong evidence for two divergent genetic lineages of E. lori within Belize, separated geographically by only 30 km of low-suitability habitat. There is a sharp genetic cline across these 30 km, and evidence of admixture and introgression at the boundary regions of the habitat break. We also show that the broadly-distributed arrangement of MPAs within Belize protects both major lineages as well as subtle structure within-lineages, and therefore may confer protection to co-distributed species that exhibit similar spatial patterns of divergence. © 2016, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,211-223,,1,18,,Conserv.

In the present study, MP contamination was investigated in fish associated with sandy beaches in a permanent environmental protection area in the Amazon. In order to achieve this goal, the shape, color, abundance, richness, and chemical composition of MPs in the digestive tract of 29 fish species in 24 beaches of the Machado River, western Brazilian Amazon, were evaluated. Linear mixed models (LMMs) were adjusted to test the effects of local human modification (HMc), distance from urban settlements, distance from the closest affluent, and trophic categories of fish species on microplastic abundance and richness in their digestive tracts. From the 1082 fish analyzed, 332 (30 %) presented MPs in their digestive tracts. A total of 617 MPs was found (1.8 ± 1.6 MPs; 4.5 ± 1.9 MPs/g fish). Omnivorous and insectivorous fish presented more MPs in sandy beaches located closer to urban settlements. However, carnivorous fish presented a higher abundance of MPs in their digestive tracts compared with the other trophic guilds. This is the first study to analyze plastic contamination in fish associated with sandy beaches in the Amazon (Brazil), and it revealed contamination of the ichthyofauna mainly related to the distance from urban settlements.

Partitioning beta diversity and assessing both species contribution to beta diversity (SCBD) and local contribution to beta diversity (LCBD) can evaluate the ecological importance of each group and measure the uniqueness of each site. This study aimed to comprehend how different habitat groups within the marine fish assemblage in the Ubatumirim Bay contribute to beta diversity and to correlate the uniqueness of each sampling site to their attributes to better understand the importance of habitat use groups and the community composition variation in the bay. We sampled ichthyofauna at six locations within the bay, employing a shrimp trawl net at varying depths. We categorized the 95 identified species into five distinct habitat groups: reef-associated, pelagic-neritic, demersal, benthopelagic, and pelagic-oceanic, each with different ecological characteristics and preferences. However, no significant differences were detected in SCBD among these groups. An increase in LCBD values was observed with the decrease in mean sediment diameter, indicating a higher environmental complexity, possibly acting as an environmental filter. One of the sampled sites, Couves Island, stood out with a significantly higher LCBD value, which underscores the importance of such diverse environments in maintaining regional biodiversity. These findings can serve as a valuable baseline reference in conservation planning and management, particularly in assessing the effectiveness of the recently established Marine Environment Protection Area. For instance, comparing the current observations with future surveys could quantify the impact of this protection initiative, thus providing evidence of management efficacy and showing the potential effects of impacts (such as predatory tourism) in the Ubatumirim Bay area. © 2024 The authors.",,,,,72,,Ocean Coast.

Through a technical co-operation between department of Geography from Federal University of Paraná and Chico Mendes Institute for Biodiversity Conservation, since 2014 a BDG building methodology based on experiences in environmental diagnosis at the Environmental Protection Area (APA) of Guaraqueçaba and other Conservation Units (UCs) from the north coast of Paraná. Thus, the present work aims to propose a methodology of BDG creation, which is divided in 4 steps: evaluation, organization, quality and application. Between the main results there are: 282 geospatial data in 51 thematic categories, the APA of Guaraqueçaba’s limits revised, and 52 cartographic products that will be featured in the environmental diagnosis. This proposal stands out by bringing data storage and naming recommendations, rules for quality control (thematic consistency, topology and metadata), and also its publication on free online platforms. Yet, there are some recommendations for the application of this data in territory management, such as protocols for BDG feeding. © 2020, Universidade Federal de Pernambuco.

This contribution provides information on the population size, habitat, behavior, breeding biology and nest success of X. flavus in two conservation units (CUs) in Viamăo, state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil: the Environmental Protection Area Banhado Grande, and the Wildlife Refuge Banhado dos Pachecos, classified as an “Important Bird Area”. Searches for X. flavus were carried out mainly in open areas, the type of habitat favored by the species. Outside the breeding season individual behavior was recorded by the ad libitum method; during the breeding season, selected X. flavus pairs were observed following the sequence sampling method. The research areas were visited once a month, totaling approximately 530 hours of observations (September 2014 to June 2016) over 84 days, which included two breeding seasons. The species was observed across all months (not necessarily within the same year) and several X. flavus flocks were encountered, some with more than one hundred individuals (range = 2-137). Additionally, the behavior and feeding aspects, habitat use and breeding information on X. flavus were recorded. Two breeding colonies were found, and eleven nests were monitored. The estimated nesting success was 10% in Colony 1, but zero in Colony 2, where all eggs and nestlings were predated. Saffron-cowled Blackbirds were recorded in mixed flocks, mostly with Pseudoleistes guirahuro (Vieillot, 1819), P. virescens (Vieillot, 1819) and Xolmis dominicanus (Vieillot, 1823), the last also a globally endangered species. The collected information highlights the importance of CUs for the maintenance of X. flavus populations in the region. Maintenance of proper areas for feeding and breeding is necessary and urgent. Information from current research is being employed in the management plan of the Wildlife Refuge Banhado dos Pachecos in which X. flavus is one of the conservation target-species. © 2017, Sociedade Brasileira de Zoologia.

The present research aimed to investigate whether in the same protected area (Dois Irmaos State Park, state of Pernambuco, Brazil) aquatic environments submitted to different levels of anthropic exposure present different attributes of the community of littoral rotifers. Four reservoirs were evaluated and grouped into two categories according to antropic exposure conditions: (i) Exposed and (ii) Not Exposed, according to the environmental characteristics of the surroundings of the reservoirs. Forty-one species were recorded, of which 11 occurred in the four reservoirs, and the genus Lecane was the richest in species (S = 14). The rotifer community differed between both exposure conditions, with a greater richness and density found for the group of Exposed reservoirs. The analysis of functional groups, through the Guild Ratio index (GR), resulted in a higher dominance of microphages for the Exposed group (GR = -0.93), than for the Not Exposed group (GR = -0.69). Even though both exposure conditions were dominated by microphage rotifers, which are indicators of aquatic ecosystem degradation, a lower representation of this functional group was observed in the Not Exposed group of reservoirs. Our results indicate that coastal planktonic rotifers present reliable answers for the environmental evaluation of shallow reservoirs, and that different management conditions can influence the environmental status of aquatic ecosystems of the same protected area. © 2019, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ).

Aichi Target 11 set out by 2020 at least 10% of coastal and marine areas, especially areas of particular importance for biodiversity and ecosystem services, are conserved through the creation of marine protected areas. Although the goal had been considered by many as bold and political unattainable, the percentage of the global protection of the sea and oceans has been increasing dramatically in the last ten years, particularly due to the establishment of large-scale marine protected areas (LSMPAs), either under national jurisdictions either beyond national jurisdictions. However, the establishment of LSMPAs raises a heated debate among the experts that point out advantages and disadvantages concerning the protection of marine biodiversity and ecosystem services. Another recurring aspect in relation to the LSMPAs is the claim that its creation is more oriented to political goals than conservationist aims. Thus, the original contribution of this paper is to analyze the role that the LSMPAs have been making towards the Aichi Target 11, in order to demonstrate that there is great attention to the quantitative aspect – driven by political considerations –, but considerably less to the qualitative aspects – effective environmental protection – of the goal. The current scenario of the protection of the marine environment and the role of the LSMPAs is examined in this paper through the deductive and analytical methods, by bibliographical research and data analysis of the marine area’s protection. © 2019 Centro Universitario de Brasilia.

We studied the genetic diversity and structure in nine populations of Calophyllum brasiliense from Santa Catarina state, Brazil, aiming to establish conservation strategies. Allozymic markers were used to genotype about 50 individuals from each population. Moderate genetic diversity (mean = 0.135) and high fixation indexes (mean = 0.259) were estimated. Genetic divergence was significant, equal to 0.140, and a Bayesian analysis found two different genetic groupings. The results show clear signs of risk of diversity loss, basically related to restrictions of effective size. As conservation efforts, we suggested the use of C. brasiliense in restoration programs and for wood production. We also suggested the protection of its associated fauna and the development of more protected areas.

These areas are globally important as they are humid. This research analyses the potential of SAR Sentinel 1 images as identification tools for hydric cover in conservation areas of the Amazon Biome in the state of Maranhăo during the rainy season in the Amazonian region. Via Google Earth Engine (GEE), a collection of scenes from the mission Sentinel 1A was collected, referring to the comprehended period, January and June 2024. These scenes were submitted to mathematical bands in a GEE processing tool, which extracted the smallest pixel value observed each month. Through identification work on-site, the reference areas and the sampled areas were inspected before validation. A cut-off limit was defined to what is classified as water and as non-water after comparing to the targeted references the statistical samples observed on-site, and, to conclude, the records of pluviometric precipitation were evaluated for the analyzed area. The results show that the average backscatter values indicative of water coverage is approximately between - 24dB and -21dB and are, therefore, compatible with the samples found in the Brazilian Amazon. The chosen cut-off was -20dB, which achieved hitting a rate of 76,6%, allowing us to observe that the months with the biggest recorded precipitation (March and April) also correspond to the months with the largest extension of hydric cover in the analyzed area. © Author(s) 2024.",,97-100,,,48,,,,,,,,International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Issue: 3 Journal Abbreviation: Int.

This article presents a method to identify geomorphological diversity hotspots at a detailed scale through a quantitative approach, which was applied to a protected coastal area in Rio de Janeiro State, SE Brazil. These hotspots are understood as areas that present significant diversity of landforms and, at the same time, risks of degradation, which justifies the definition of priorities for the territorial management aiming at nature conservation purposes. The results allowed the identification of five hotspots, showing that, even though the area is legally protected, it still faces problems related to threats caused by human activities. Therefore, specific problems of territorial management in a protected area were identified through the creation of a product that indicates the priority areas for conservation in a different way and can be easily applied as a tool to support managers.

We aimed to assess the effects of those emissions on the leaf morphology and anatomy of the restinga species Byrsonima sericea, Cordia verbenacea, and Psidium guineense by evaluating visual symptomatology and analyzing the anatomical and micromorphological alterations resulting from exposure. Leaves were collected from individuals growing at two sites: a restinga forest fragment located 800 m away from the pelletizing plant and a restinga conservation unit 20 km away, which served as reference site. In all three species, individuals growing near the pelletizing plant showed necrotic regions on the leaf and foliar micromorphological alterations like turgor loss of epidermal cells, cuticle and epicuticular wax erosion, stomatal obliteration, and rupture and plasmolysis of trichomes. Anatomically, we found cell collapse, cell hypertrophy, and formation of a wound tissue. C. verbenacea showed the most severe visual and anatomical damage, being thus considered the most sensitive species to emissions. Leaf structural features such as uniseriate epidermis, lack of hypodermis, and presence of trichomes contributed to the highest sensitivity of C. verbenacea.

The activity of enzymes CAT and GST was increased after the rainy season. This can be explained mainly by the intensification of rain density, which drags substances into the streams, especially pesticides applied on agriculture.

Results demonstrated the impacts of technological innovation on fishing practices, such as the use of spearguns and small outboard motors; an increase in opportunistic fishing associated with a growing coastal population; fading of certain traditional fishing practices that often require fishers with greater experience; a shift for a fishery made up of more opportunistic amateur fishers, as artisanal, small-scale fishers switched to other income sources such as tourism. Although there are benefits from those transformations, which include the possibility of an alternative source of income and the use of technology, fisheries traditions have been affected negatively in terms of social and cultural aspects, and traditional fishing communities are left vulnerable in the absence of national fishery monitoring programs, reliable fishing data, and institutional instability. Local initiatives and empowerment of traditional fishing communities to strengthen fisher identity and participation in fisheries policy decision-making should be strongly encouraged.",,,,,165,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001240564300001,,,,,,,AREA; Brazil; Fishery transformation; MANAGEMENT; PROTECTION; Small-scale fisheries; Sustainability; TOURISM; Tourism development,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This option was rather widely discussed; therefore, the aim of the research was to evaluate the willingness to pay for the conservation of the authenticity of the Curonian Spit. Expressed willingness to pay and travellers’ volumes are used for the assessment of the authenticity value of this protected area. Research has revealed that Curonian Spit popularity is steadily increasing. Fifty percent of respondents approve the construction of the bridge over the Curonian Lagoon and 39% disapprove, the rest remain undecided. The main argument for the construction of the bridge is easier accessibility, while the main argument against is the loss of authenticity/attractiveness. On average respondents are willing to pay €12.92 for the preservation of the authenticity. Visitors, who visit Curonian Spit more frequently are against the bridge construction and are willing to pay for the preservation of the authenticity more often than others.

The degree to which a reserve will provide certain benefits or achieve specific goals will vary with species, depending on life-history characteristics and various aspects of reserve design. The Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary management plan created a network of no-take reserves encompassing just 0.5% of the sanctuary's total area but provided for the creation of a Dry Tortugas Ecological Reserve, an additional marine reserve in and adjacent to the Dry Tortugas region of the sanctuary. The existing reserves are small because they were intended to provide only limited fishery benefits, but additional fishery benefits are being considered among the objectives of a Dry Tortugas reserve. How big must such a reserve be to provide specific benefits, and how can one predict this size without having one? We use a simple model based on the percent of virgin biomass (%B0) in fished and unfished areas to provide managers with a quick and easy way of estimating the reserve size required to meet specific management objectives. Analyses of %B0 for populations in fished and reserve areas suggests that a Dry Tortugas reserve encompassing at least 30-40% of the region is required to elevate all stocks from current levels to overfishing-threshold %B0 levels, but smaller reserves might be used to complement conventional fisheries-management practices as a buffer against some level of overfishing and insurance against complete stock collapse.",,707-719,,,66,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 3 Journal Abbreviation: Bull.

The coast of the Antarctic continent is the only habitat of the iconic Adélie penguin, whose main diet is Antarctic krill. Current threats to Adélie Penguins, other Antarctic krill predators and Antarctic krill itself include sea-ice loss as a result of climate change and krill fishing. We use a spatially and temporally dynamic food web model of the region surrounding the Western Antarctic Peninsula to evaluate the potential impacts of various marine protected area scenarios in the context of climate change. We examine the effects of sustained sea-ice loss on krill and seven monitored krill predators. We evaluate four marine protected area scenarios given two scenarios that describe future changes in sea ice and three scenarios that describe future changes in krill fishing effort. Our results indicate that establishing no-take zones where krill might aggregate in the future and where some krill predators forage could positively affect biomass accumulation of krill and the predators. No-take zones may be particularly important for enhancing the resilience of species that have recently experienced population decline and ensuring positive outcomes from establishing a marine protected area in the region. Our simulations suggest that establishing protected areas in the right locations can play an important role in mitigating the negative effects of climate change on iconic species that many people want to conserve. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,251,,Biol.

Preliminary MPA boundaries were evaluated against some of these objectives using a static, map-based process, yet further assessment and additional objectives could be addressed with dynamic approaches. Here, the MPA's evaluation was expanded using the joint application of two published dynamic ecosystem models to further appraise the MPA. These models also considered potential impacts of climate change in the region, and greater insight can be gained from using them together rather than independently. Both models projected the proposed MPA could increase ecosystem viability in the region by reducing potential population declines, especially of penguins. These benefits manifested even when the impacts of climate change occurred over the long term, and likely accrued due to protection of areas important for krill aggregation and predator foraging. Model outcomes also suggested possible improvements to the preliminary MPA boundaries to reinforce these benefits. Using the two structurally distinct models together increased confidence in results and the potential for an MPA to meet multiple policy objectives in the region, and the paper further details the process of translating outcomes into timely decision support for stakeholders. Modelling results were regularly communicated using established formal and informal channels, ensuring model-derived advice directly supported policy needs. Collectively, the work demonstrates the process and value of leveraging existing ecosystem models, quickly adapting models to policy needs, and developing actionable advice for policy makers. © 2020 The Authors",,,,,121,,Mar.

We found that MPA networks that both protect the target species' habitat and were spatially optimized to improve population connectivity had the highest net present value (i.e., were most profitable for the fishing industry). These higher profits were achieved primarily by reducing the distance travelled for fishing and reducing the probability of a moratorium event.

We tested the potential for a previously overfished deep-sea shark (Centrophorus zeehaani) with very low biological productivity to recover in a network of three reserves. An individual-based simulation model was developed and applied using reproduction and movement data. Without any reserves or reductions in fishing mortality the population will never recover and will fail in 27.9 ± 6.1 years. With three reserves, recovery from 8% of initial numbers to a target of 20% would take 63.1 ± 3.1 years with the network in place. Length of the female cycle, natural mortality, and density dependent female dispersal are uncertain, but could delay recovery time by an additional 16.5, 98.3, or 61.9 years, respectively. Effectiveness of the reserve network was particularly sensitive to location and patchiness of the population. Doubling the size of a reserve where C. zeehaani are abundant would reduce recovery time by 12.5 years; halving it would increase recovery time by 12.0 years. Future re-opening of orange roughy fishing in waters deeper than 750 m would delay recovery of C. zeehaani by 45.9 years.

Considering how species differ in their propensity to move within and between MPAs is therefore a key consideration for multi-species MPA network design. Here, we propose a conceptual framework to incorporate ecological processes that affect movement at multiple life stages into the MPA network design process. We illustrate how our framework can be implemented using a set of hypothetical species that represent regional trait diversity in coastal British Columbia, Canada. We focused on two ecological processes: (1) dispersal during the larval phase and (2) daily home range movement during the adult phase. To identify functional connectivity patterns, we used a biophysical model to simulate larval dispersal, and then prioritized highly-connected patches using a reserve selection algorithm. To ensure that individual reserves were commensurate with home ranges, we also imposed reserve size constraints. Candidate areas for protection were identified based on multi-species connectivity patterns and home range size constraints. Collectively, this conceptual framework offers a flexible approach to multi-species, cross-life stage conservation planning, which can be further adapted to address complex life histories. As marine conservation efforts around the globe aim to design ecologically connected networks of protected areas, the integration of movement and connectivity data throughout ontogeny will be a key component of effective multi-species MPA network design. © 2017",,93-100,,,216,,Biol.

Strictly no-take MPAs, also called marine reserves, undeniably promote fish biomass and density, but it remains unclear how biodiversity responds to protection. Identifying which facets of biodiversity respond to protection is critical for the management of MPAs and the development of relevant conservation strategies towards the achievement of biodiversity targets. We collected 99 environmental DNA (eDNA) samples inside and outside nine marine reserves in the Mediterranean Sea to assess the effect of protection on 11 biodiversity indicators based on fish traits, phylogeny and vulnerability to fishing. We controlled for the effect of environmental heterogeneity (habitat, bathymetry, productivity, temperature and accessibility) using a principal component analysis, and for spatial autocorrelation due to potential unmeasured factors. We found a positive and significant effect of protection on only 3 out of 11 indicators: functional and phylogenic diversity but also the ratio between demerso-pelagic and benthic species richness. Rather, total fish richness responded significantly and negatively to protection. We did not detect any significant effect of protection on threatened and elasmobranch species richness, probably due to their large home range compared to the size of Mediterranean marine reserves. Synthesis and applications: Our findings highlight the importance of looking beyond the mere number of species to fully depict and understand the effect of marine reserves on biodiversity and evaluate the effectiveness of conservation measures. Rather, we propose a dashboard of three eDNA-based indicators that can provide an early signal of ecosystem deterioration or recovery. eDNA metabarcoding offers a powerful tool to supply site-specific and standardized taxonomic-, phylogenetic- and trait-based biodiversity assessments, in complement to other classical techniques, such as visual censuses or video surveys, able to estimate species abundance but also individual life-stage and size. © 2022 The Authors.

Using social and ecological data from a rapid assessment of 31 MPAs and their associated human communities in the wider Caribbean, this study investigates (1) the stated social and ecological objectives of MPAs; (2) the extent to which MPAs are making progress toward their stated social and ecological objectives; and (3) tradeoffs in progress toward social and ecological objectives. Findings indicate that Caribbean MPAs have multiple objectives related to both social and ecological conditions, and that most MPAs are making at least some progress towards achieving these objectives. Those MPAs with stated objectives to promote education and serve as a model for other MPAs seem to be making good progress on these objectives, while those with the objective of reducing conflict are not. Where MPAs are not meeting their goals and objectives, planners and managers should consider reallocating human and financial resources to address deficiencies and re-evaluating existing goals and objectives. It is important to consider how existing marine protected areas are performing as efforts in the Caribbean region and elsewhere continue to promote the establishment of new MPAs. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,69-76,,,54,,Mar.

I present a framework for involving the public in planning of U.S. MPAs. Derived from empirically and theoretically based research on public participation in U.S. natural resource management, this framework is composed of factors that influence the success of participatory processes: active participant involvement, complete information exchange, fair decision making, efficient administration, and positive participant interactions. Processes incorporating these factors will produce decisions that are more likely to be supported by stakeholders, meet management objectives, and fulfill conservation goals. This framework contributes to the MPA social science literature and responds to calls in the conservation literature to increase the use of social science research to inform conservation decision making. ©2005 Society for Conservation Biology.",,1392-1401,,5,19,,Conserv.

International efforts to address these challenges include the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement and the UN 2030 Agenda. Further, some countries are refocusing their ocean programs to align with blue economy strategies globally. We look to Canada, an ocean nation developing a blue economy strategy, to examine the climate-responsiveness of their oceans policies. First, we identify climate change impacts on ecosystem services affecting each of Canada's coasts through a document scan. Then, through a structured policy analysis, we examine whether Canadian fisheries and oceans policy are responsive to these impacts. Finally, we discuss how current policies do or do not address climate impacts on oceans and coasts in Canada, and how this focus, or lack thereof, will have an outsized impact on certain ocean sectors (e.g., inshore fisheries). Our findings show a policy landscape largely dependent on climate change action promoted in a few broad federal initiatives, with oceans-related climate action operating through area-based conservation measures and research and monitoring initiatives. We conclude with recommendations for Canada and similar ocean states to integrate climate and ocean policies across federal departments and ocean sectors by centering vulnerable coastal users in policy formulation. Given Canada's rapid development of a blue economy strategy as a new governing framework for oceans policy, we recommend the strategy be guided by long-term sustainability goals that prioritize environmental and social sustainability over short-term economic growth. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,131,,Mar.

Giant trevally Caranx ignobilis are ecologically important top predatory fish targeted in both recreational and commercial fisheries; however, little is known about their aggregation dynamics or susceptibility to overexploitation. This study employed acoustic telemetry to investigate the temporal and spatial characteristics of one of the largest known aggregations of this species over a 3 yr period in a marine protected area in Mozambique, West Indian Ocean. Tagged fish were monitored for between 386 and 1176 d, during which they exhibited distinct aggregative periods in austral spring and summer. The detection frequency of fish at the aggregation site was significantly associated with rising mean sea temperatures and the full moon period. Whilst at the aggregation site, fish exhibited clear patterns of diel periodicity, with maximum hourly detections recorded during midday. All fish exhibited periods of absence from the aggregation site between summer seasons, in which time many of them ranged across an international border for distances of between 11 and 633 km before returning to aggregate at the same site in the following season. These results confirm that the studied giant trevally aggregation is temporally and spatially predictable, and consistent with a transient site-specific fish spawning aggregation. The spatiotemporal predictability of the aggregation highlights the need for the effective management of this transboundary population of giant trevally, for which this study has provided conservation management recommendations. © 2019 Inter-Research.",,185-197,,,621,,Mar.

Tiger sharks (Galeocerdo cuvier) are a wide-ranging ecologically important species subject to various threats. The aim of this study was to identify “hotspots” of tiger shark habitat use in relation to protected areas and potential risks from fishing. Location: Southwest Indian Ocean, east coast of South Africa and Mozambique. Methods: Satellite tags were fitted to 26 tiger sharks. A subset of 19 sharks with an average period at liberty of 197 (SD = 110) days were analysed using hotspot analysis to identify areas of core habitat use. The spatial and temporal overlap of significant hotspots with current and planned marine protected areas as well as risks from fishing and culling was then calculated. Results: There was a 5.97% spatial overlap between tiger shark hotspots and marine protected areas, which would increase significantly (p <.05) to 24.36% with the expansion of planned protected areas in South Africa and could be as high as 41.43% if Mozambique similarly expanded neighbouring protected area boundaries. Tiger sharks remained largely coastal, but only showed a spatial overlap of 5.12% with shark culling nets in South Africa. Only three sharks undertook open ocean migrations during which they were more likely to interact with longline fisheries in the region. Main conclusions: This study demonstrates how spatial information can be used to assess the overlap between marine protected areas and the core habitats of top marine predators and highlights how congruent transnational conservation management can improve the effectiveness of protected areas. Core habitat use of marine apex predators may also be indicative of productive habitats, and therefore, predators such as tiger sharks could act as surrogate species for identifying key habitats to prioritize for conservation planning. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,1217-1230,,9,24,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,ALIWAL SHOAL; biotelemetry; Chondrichthyes; COASTAL; conservation; CONSERVATION; conservation management; conservation planning; ECOLOGICAL CONSEQUENCES; Galeocerdo; Galeocerdo cuvier; habitat use; Indian Ocean; Indian Ocean (Southwest); longlining; marine environment; marine protected area; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; migration; Mozambique; open ocean; PARTIAL MIGRATION; PATTERNS; predator; protected area; refuge; risk assessment; satellite altimetry; satellite telemetry; shark; SHARK GALEOCERDO-CUVIER; sharks; TELEMETRY; top predators; TRACKING,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Additionally, in South Africa, a local target set in 2016 aims to conserve 16% of terrestrial areas using protected areas within a two-decade time frame. Concurrently, it is crucial to recognize and prioritize sites where biodiversity must be protected immediately. This recognition has given rise to global Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) and South Africa's Critical Biodiversity Areas (CBAs). KBAs are sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity. In South Africa, CBAs delineate primarily or partially natural areas needing management. Despite their significance, an assessment of KBAs and CBAs in South Africa's Limpopo province, specifically the Vhembe District, is lacking. Employing GIS techniques, our evaluation focused on the coverage, size, and distribution of protected areas in the Vhembe District. Our analysis revealed that protected areas cover an impressive 38% of the Vhembe District. Critical Biodiversity Areas cover 9465 km2 (36%) of the region. Alarmingly, 70% (6809 km2) of these CBA sites lack protection. Additionally, KBAs cover 30% of the region, with 39% of sites covering approximately 3273 km2 and laying outside the protected area network, rendering them entirely unprotected. Sluggish protected areas establishment rates and a deficiency in the strategic targeting of significant sites have resulted in over 10,000 km2 of land warranting protection, particularly along the Soutpansberg Mountain Range. Moreover, South Africa's national target, established in 2016, which aims to protect a mere 16% of terrestrial areas by 2036, falls short of the global KMGBF target, reinforcing the urgency for an update in national policy and embracing other conservation methods. These findings suggest that, despite the commendable 38% protection of the district, setting a precedent for the rest of the country, there is a crucial need for municipalities, districts, and provinces to draw insights from the shortfalls of the Vhembe District. © 2024 The Author(s).

However, to date, we still lack a good understanding of how ecosystem services (ES) supply varies from young dunes (e.g., embryo and fore dunes) to mature dunes (e.g., brown and red dunes). This study proposed a novel modelling methodology by integrating an expert-based matrix, a Bayesian Belief Network (BBN), a structural equation model, and a scenario development method. It aims at evaluating dune ecosystem services for the sustainable development of coastal areas. The model was tested using data collected from dunes in Vietnam. An expert-based matrix to assess the supply capacity of 18 ES in different types of dunes was generated with the participation of 21 interdisciplinary scientists. It was found that red dune ecosystems could supply the most regulation and cultural ecosystem services, while gray dunes provided the least amount. Results from a scenario analysis recommended that decision-making is able to optimize multiple ES by: (i) keeping embryo/fore dunes in their natural state instead of using them for mineral mining and urbanization; (ii) enlarging certified and protected forests areas in gray and yellow dunes; and (iii) optimizing cultural ES supply in red dunes. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,289,,J.

This study, therefore, aims at assessing management effectiveness and impacts of SE Aru MCA. Results suggest that the MCA, which was originally established as a marine nature reserve (Cagar Alam Laut, CAL) in 1991 and changed status into marine sanctuary in 2009, has not yet produced the expected positive impacts. Assessment using available tools indicated that the management level of SE Aru MCA is at level 1, with percentage of 34.12%, meaning it is still at initiation stage and less effective in terms of management outcomes.

This hilly district, with the highest proportion of its area under forests in South India, is divided into five ecological zones: coastal, northern evergreen, southern evergreen, moist deciduous, and dry deciduous. The heavily-populated coastal zone includes mangrove forests and estuarine wetlands. The evergreen forests are particularly rich in the diversity of plant species which they support — including wild relatives of a number of cultivated plants. They also serve a vital function in watershed conservation. The moist deciduous forests are rich in bird species; both moist and dry deciduous forests include a number of freshwater ponds and lakes that support a high diversity of aquatic birds. Reviewing the overall distribution of biodiversity, we identify specific localities — including estuaries, evergreen forests, and moist deciduous forests — which should be set aside as Nature reserves. These larger reserves must be complemented by a network of traditionally-protected sacred groves and sacred trees that are distributed throughout the district and that protect today, for instance, the finest surviving stand of dipterocarp trees. We also spell out the necessary policy-changes in overall development strategy that should stem the ongoing decimation of biodiversity. These include (1) revitalizing community-based systems of sustainable management of village forests and protection of sacred groves and trees; (2) reorienting the usage-pattern of reserve forests from production of a limited variety of timber and softwood species for industrial consumers, to production of a larger diversity of non-wood forest produce of commercial value to support the rural economy; (3) utilizing marginal lands under private ownership for generating industrial wood supplies; and (4) provision of incentives for in situ maintenance of land-races of cultivated plants — especially evergreen, fruit-yielding trees — by the local people. It is proposed that this broad framework be now taken to the local communities, and that an action-plan be developed on the basis of inputs provided — and initiatives taken — by them. © 1993, Foundation for Environmental Conservation.

We examined conservation management interventions resulting from 21/2 years of monitoring by 97 rangers and 350 community volunteers over 1 million hectares of Philippine protected areas. Before this monitoring scheme was established, there was little collaboration between local people and park authorities, and park monitoring was restricted to assessments of the quantity of extracted timber. As a result of the scheme, 156 interventions were undertaken in terrestrial, marine and freshwater ecosystems. In total 98% of these interventions were meaningful and justified, 47% targeted the three most serious threats to biodiversity at the site, and 90% were implemented without external support, suggesting that the interventions were relevant and could be sustained over time at the local level. The mean time from sampling to decision-making was only 97 days, probably because 82% of the interventions were initiated by the same people and institutions that had compiled the underlying data, bypassing potential government bureaucracy. Many of the interventions were jointly undertaken by community members and the management authorities or consisted of local bylaws in support of park management. As a result of the monitoring, indigenous resource use regulation schemes were re-established with government recognition in several parks. The monitoring led to more diversified and realistic management responses on the part of the authorities, including a more socially acceptable and effective approach to enforcement. Of the four field monitoring techniques used, the most participatory one generated more interventions aimed at ensuring a continued resource supply for local communities (?2 3 = 69.1, p <0.01). Although this suggests that the interest of community members is associated with their possibilities to influence the flow of ecosystem goods and services, the 156 interventions targeted, directly or indirectly, all known globally threatened species of mammals, birds and butterflies in the parks. © Springer 2005.",,2633-2652,,11,14,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Asia; Aves; Community-based natural resource management; conservation management; decision analysis; Decision-making; Eastern Hemisphere; environmental monitoring; Eurasia; local participation; Locally-based monitoring; Mammalia; Papilionoidea; participatory approach; Participatory monitoring; Philippines; Southeast Asia; Sustainability; World,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The current study aimed at investigating the patterns, perception, economic losses, and mitigation of human wildlife conflict in Pakistan through meta-analysis of published literature and using the questionnaire survey method. We retrieved data from the published and unpublished sources, and from records of provincial wildlife departments. In addition, we also collected empirical data from different households falling in the range of targeted carnivore species and filled 331 semi-structured questionaries. Based on the activities and home range of the predator species, conflict density maps for each predator species were developed. Our analysis revealed that five major carnivore species are involved in the human-wildlife conflict, namely Asiatic black bear (Ursus thibetanus), Himalayan brown bear (Ursus arctos), common leopard (Panthera pardus), grey wolf (Canis lupus) and snow leopard (Panthera uncia). About 7214 livestock heads were reportedly lost during past two decades because of these five carnivore species. The domestic goat depredation was maximum (51.08 %, n = 3685), followed by sheep (27.09 %, n = 1954), cow (11.37 %, n = 820), buffalo (2.34 %, n = 169), dogs (2.05 %, n = 148), poultry (0.87 %, n = 63), donkey (4.28 %, n = 348), and horse (0.37 %, n = 27), causing a total financial loss of USD 1.87 million. Maximum livestock depredation occurred in summer season (50.79 %), at night (59.92 %) time and outside the village (51.22 %). Majority of the people showed negative attitude towards the predators, and they did not know about the conservation status and the authorities to report for conservation of the predator species. Most of the respondents were unaware about the possible management of the predator species for the co-existence of human and wildlife in the same landscape. However, majority of respondents (38.3 %) thought that livestock depredation by carnivore species can be controlled through payment of insurance compensation to the person who lost its livestock during carnivore attacks, followed by restoration of natural habitat (20.1 %), translocation of predator (16 %), and improved husbandry practices like predator proof corals (8 %). The study concludes that buffer zones of the protected areas are the hotspots for human- wildlife conflict and to avoid such conflict in future, special mitigation measures should be adapted, and regulations should be developed to minimize the niche overlap of the livestock and wildlife prey species, thereby to avoid any competition for food resources. © 2023 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,76,,J.

Among the damages, the anchoring on sensitive habitats, with the consequent loss of structural complexity, density, cover and specific richness, is widely reckoned and its consequences are long lasting and evident. The aim of this work is to provide an environmentally focused accounting model (SAILOR) to evaluate the net impact of anchoring on sensitive habitats. In this research SAILOR model has been tested on Posidonia oceanica, one among the most vulnerable in Mediterranean. An innovative approach is proposed in order to develop sustainable management strategies for recreational boating in MPAs in the framework of a very strong sustainability. In particular, it starts from the assessment of the natural capital of P. oceanica with the purpose to keep it at least intact. The model procedure is defined considering factors that affect the anchoring damage: type of habitats, seabed compactness, number and size of boats, type of anchor. Considering these data, the net impact is evaluated as surfaces and natural capital (emergy analysis) balancing the anchoring damage and the regenerative capacity. Being recreational boating spatially distributed, the model outputs the results both as values and sustainability maps at different spatial level (overall MPA, protection zones and even smaller), according to management needs. In this way, MPA managers can quickly and easily understand the sustainability status of the MPA, identify suffering areas in order to establish ad hoc actions and develop alternative scenarios. The model, based on a generalized and iterable procedure applicable to any area, is tested on Portofino MPA (Italy): the annual average net impact is 279 m2 (equivalent to 1.51E+11 sej and 1?577 em€ of natural capital), eroding the 0.089% of P. oceanica in the anchorable areas. © 2022",,,,,342,,J.

This study analyzes mangroves' spatial distribution and density changes in the North Rupat Regional Marine Reserve Conservation Area (KKPD), Riau, Indonesia, over 34 years (1989-2023). The research utilized Landsat satellite imagery with Random Forest classification methods and applied Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) calculations to categorize mangrove canopy density. An innovative mathematical approach assessed changes in mangrove distribution and density. Results show a decrease in mangrove area from 10,822.84 hectares in 1989 to 10,613.38 hectares in 2023. Canopy density analysis reveals dominance of stable low-density areas (4,311.27 hectares) and significant degradation (3,651.57 hectares). NDVI analysis demonstrates a drastic degradation in mangrove quality, with mean NDVI values dropping from 0.309873 in 1989 to -0.03113 in 2023, indicating severe vegetation stress. Complex change patterns and succession followed by degradation indicate mangrove ecosystem dynamics influenced by natural and anthropogenic factors.

In Indonesia, land spatial planning has firstly been implemented, followed by the spatial zonation of coastal waters. Therefore, to achieve sustainable coastal zone management, the harmonization between the regional spatial plan or RTRW with the zoning plan for coastal waters and small islands or RZWP3K is urgently needed. This paper aims to examine the spatial problems in the process of integrating these two spatial plans. Using the spatial review method, the stages of study consist of forming the seamless spatial planning maps of 8 provincial regions in Indonesia that have stipulated the second regional regulation on spatial planning regimes and then integrated them with the coastal waters spatial planning zonation map (rzwp3k). The findings show the potential conflict in some areas, especially in protected areas with cultivation and public use, and between the cultivation areas, fisheries, and industries. Other findings are on the technical aspect, which shows the differences in the coastal area due to the use of two different coastlines and base maps. Regarding substance, there are differences in the content of the framework of the RTRW and RZWP3K mandates in regional regulation.  © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,750,,,,,,,,IOP Publishing Ltd,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

Here, for the first time, we apply phylogenetic methods to marine macrophytes (mangroves and seagrass species) to test for gaps in the current conservation network by identifying global diversity hotspots for these plant groups, and assess the degree to which hotspots are represented within the current network of marine protected areas (MPAs). Location: Global. Methods: We calculated five metrics of marine plant diversity: phylogenetic diversity, species richness, species endemism, phylogenetic endemism and 'evolutionary distinctiveness and global endangerment' (EDGE). Results: Overall, the diversity of marine plants was poorly represented by current MPAs. Different measures of diversity showed spatial mismatch, demonstrating how strategies that maximize one diversity measure may be inefficient at protecting other facets of marine plant biodiversity. However, complementarity analyses revealed that complete representation can be achieved very efficiently with few additional locations. Main conclusions: Our study highlights the need for an integrative approach to conserve both the species diversity and phylogenetic diversity of marine plants. While MPAs are a valuable instrument for conserving marine biodiversity, we now face the challenge of increasing coverage to protect other branches of the marine tree of life. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,324-334,,3,25,,Global Ecol.

Other major groups dependent upon fresh waters include, reptiles, insects, plants and mammals. The IUCN Redlist and The Nature Conservancy assessments both indicate the serious vulnerability and degradation of inland water habitats world-wide. It is evident that there are neither the resources nor the time to protect all areas where species are under threat. Clearly a method is needed for prioritising inland water sites for conservation at both local and regional scales. IUCN held a workshop in June 2002 to develop a method for prioritising important inland water sites for biodiversity conservation. The goal of the workshop was to develop a method which would help to focus on conservation efforts and funds at the regional scale and would serve as a tool for active conservation efforts at the local scale. The method was developed on the foundations of a review of the existing site prioritisation schemes for terrestrial, marine and freshwater ecosystems. Expert representatives for a broad range of priority taxa and for existing schemes provided input to the development of the site prioritisation method.

The delta consists of 4.37 million people alongside a vast, impeccable mangrove forests covering approximately 2000 sq. km. This makes ecosystem-based adaptation as a natural choice for its underprivileged dwellers who are currently suffering from an unprecedented risk of seaward hazards. Unlike many other contiguous mangrove forests that remain heavily exploited, mangroves of Indian Sundarbans are, in general, well protected under varied degree of legislative protection. Despite of large underprivileged communities within its immediate vicinity, vast network of protected areas have played an important role in strict conservation ever since its implementation during the early 1970s. Nevertheless, acknowledging the customary rights of local communities, participatory management of mangroves was formally introduced within these otherwise protected areas under the federally administered Joint Forest Management (JFM) guidelines. Consequently, the existing JFM arrangements were mostly retrofitted within a prohibitory environment that encourages strict protection of the mangroves with minimal human intervention. Under this backdrop, this chapter aims to understand how effectively the goals and objectives of JFMs are implemented in this area keeping in view of the social, economic and environmental sustainability component of the existing JFM arrangements. Additionally, this chapter provides a brief review on the history of mangrove conservation in Indian Sundarbans through screening of various policy documents, field reports and peer-reviewed literatures and attempts to identify the pertaining issues related to mangrove sustainability in a dynamic policy environment.",,59-71,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000417630800005,,,DOI: 10.1007/978-4-431-56481-2_4,,,,JFM; MANGROVE MANAGEMENT; Mangroves; Protected area; Sustainability,,"DasGupta, R; Shaw, R",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

South-western parts of Indian Sunderbans Biosphere Reserve had been chosen for assessment of land use/land cover changes in between 1975 and 2006 by using multitemporal Landsat data. Results indicated considerable reduction of open mangrove stands and associated biodiversity mainly in the forest-habitation interference zones of Sunderbans. On the contrary, increase in the coverage of dense mangroves in the reserved forests had been observed indicating the existence of proper centralized management regimes. Overall, a cumulative loss of approximately 0.42% of its original mangrove cover in between 1975 and 2006 had been estimated for this part of the Sunderbans which was at parity with the findings of other studies in the Sunderbans or similar mangrove ecosystems of the tropics. Expansion of non agricultural lands in the last two decades was found to be related with the growth of new settlements, tourism infrastructure, and facilities.

Biogenic reef persistence and recovery from perturbations depend on recolonization by new recruits. Characterizing larval dispersal among distant reefs is key to understanding how connectivity shapes metapopulation structure and determines network coherence; all of which are of critical importance for effective conservation. Location: Northeast Atlantic coast and western English Channel, France. Methods: We used a biophysical transport model to simulate larval dispersal of the reef-building polychaete Sabellaria alveolata. We combined dispersal modelling and network analysis into a framework aiming to identify key reef areas and critical dispersal pathways, whose presence in the network is vital to its overall coherence. We evaluated changes in dispersal pathways constrained by different connectivity thresholds, i.e., minimum dispersal rate for the presence of a connection. We tested scenarios of sequential loss of reefs: randomly, by habitat quality (a score for reef status and occupancy in an area) or by betweenness centrality metric (BC; quantifying the proportion of shortest paths connecting all areas that are passing through any given area). Results: We found that the network of S. alveolata reefs forms two main regional clusters, the Atlantic coast and the English Channel, which are connected only through weak sporadic dispersal events. Within each cluster, the network is characterized by relatively high connectivity among neighbouring areas with reefs, maintained even under higher connectivity thresholds. Simulating scenarios of sequential loss of reefs further identified high centrality reefs, those with highest BC values, key to network coherence. Main conclusions: Effective conservation of this important reef habitat requires a network of protected areas designed to sustain a combination of locally important source reefs, and those that act as stepping stones connecting distant reefs. © 2022 The Authors.

This is a challenge, considering the poor compliance of the Aichi Biodiversity Targets reported in several assessments, and that 37% of the remaining unprotected natural areas are inhabited by indigenous and local communities. Modern conservation policies tend to convert areas destined for protection into complex socioecological landscapes, so it is critical to develop policies capable of establishing long-term harmonious relations between local societies and their environments. Despite the fundamental importance of defining this interrelation, methodologies for evaluating it are still unclear. We propose a method for assessing the outcome of policies in socioenvironmental practices based on a historical-political ecology analysis of a region, the construction of socioenvironmental scenarios, and comparing populations scattered through the study area. Each “scenario” is a relation between nature and society after a shift in public policies. Conservation scientists, environmental managers, and policymakers can use this methodology to assess old policies, design new ones, or map the socioenvironmental dynamics in their area of interest. Here, we detail this approach and illustrate its application in the coastal wetlands of Mexico. The method can be outlined as follows: • Deduce socioenvironmental epochs for a region by analysing its historical political ecology. • Analyse the socioenvironmental dynamics in selected case studies scattered through the region. • Use the resulting scenarios as conceptual bridges between internal policies and current socioenvironmental dynamics. © 2023",,,,,10,,MethodsX,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier B.V.,,,,article; clinical assessment; Community-based lands; Conservation; CONSERVATION; controlled study; Development; ecology; environmental management; Governance; Historical political ecology; human; Local production-based management; manager; Mexico; public policy; RESTORATION; Socioenvironmental evaluation; wetland,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Ensuring representation of species in MPAs, however, would require protecting vast areas of the global oceans and does not explicitly prioritize species of conservation concern. When threatened species are considered, a recent study found that only a small fraction of their geographic ranges are within the global MPA network. Which global marine areas, and what conservation actions beyond MPAs could be prioritized to prevent marine extinctions (Convention on Biological Diversity Aichi Target 12), remains unknown. Here, we use systematic conservation planning approaches to prioritize conservation actions for sharks, rays and chimaeras (class Chondrichthyes). We use chondrichthyans as they have the highest proportion of threatened species of any marine class. We find that expanding the MPA network by 3% in 70 nations would cover half of the geographic range of 99 imperilled endemic chondrichthyans. Our hotspot analysis reveals that just 12 nations harbour more than half (53) of the imperilled endemics. Four of these hotspot nations are within the top ten chondrichthyan fishing nations in the world, but are yet to implement basic chondrichthyan fisheries management. Given their geopolitical realities, conservation action for some countries will require relief and reorganization to enable sustainable fisheries and species protection. © 2017 Macmillan Publishers Limited, part of Springer Nature.

Coastal habitats are key areas for many waterfowl. Different species use different biotopes and in different places, so overall many parts of the coastal resource are important. As well as national conservation efforts, waterfowl conservation is increasingly focussed worldwide on collaborative international conservation, catalysed by several measures e.g. the Ramsar Convention, the EC Conservation of Wild Birds Directive, and the Bonn Convention Agreement on the Conservation of African/ Eurasian Migratory Waterbirds. Several international conservation plans are under development for single species, but a more effective approach may be to develop plans for assemblages of migratory birds with similar habitat requirements. All such plans must incorporate future sustainable use of the habitats on which the birds depend. Yet migratory bird and coastal habitat conservation is still often approached separately, despite the two being now closely linked to the development of the Natura 2000 site network in the European Community. Implementing the 1992 EC Habitats Directive requires the selection of coastal habitat sites for designation, set in national and international contexts of resource distribution. International coastal habitat inventories are needed to underpin this process. Combining such inventories with assessment of the flyway habitat requirements of waterfowl species and assemblages offers great potential for identifying international coastal habitat networks that meet the objectives of both habitat and migratory waterfowl conservation.",,41-54,,1,2,,J.

Some deep-water fish stocks have collapsed and fishing methods such as bottom trawling have raised international concern over the habitat damage they cause. It is likely that in its current form, deep-sea fishing is unsustainable. Diminishing reserves of hydrocarbons in shallow water are pushing exploration and production into deeper waters, which may cause damage to little known deep-sea habitats. The deep sea is also proposed as an environment where anthropogenic carbon dioxide could be stored to minimise the effect of its release into the atmosphere. At the same time, rising atmospheric carbon dioxide levels may be altering the chemical equilibrium of the global ocean by lowering pH. Many countries are now beginning to designate some deep-sea habitats as marine protected areas in measures to reduce the damage caused by fishing and other anthropogenic activities. This review examines these current and emerging issues in deep-sea conservation and discusses conservation status and the designation of protected areas.

Yet, ecosystem services and the associated benefits that they provide are rarely the motive for creating marine protected area (MPA). Therefore, many MPA monitoring projects do not explicitly study these functions and services or the underlying biological traits linked to them. Location: Lyme Bay MPA, located in the SW of England, was established in 2008 to protect the reef biodiversity across a 206-km2 area, which includes rocky reef habitats, pebbly sand and soft muddy sediments. Mobile demersal fishing was excluded across the whole site to allow the recovery of the reef habitats. Methods: Using a combination of towed underwater video and Baited Remote Underwater Video Systems changes in diversity (taxonomic and trait), and traits affected by mobile demersal fishing were assessed in Lyme Bay MPA over 10 years. Results: There was a consistent increase in the number of taxa and the trait diversity they provide within the MPA as well as an increase in functional redundancy, which may increase community resilience to perturbations. Outside of the MPA there was an increase in the abundance of mobile species, while the MPA showed an increase in filter feeders. Main conclusions: The MPA showed a trend towards more diverse and potentially resilient rocky reef habitats. This study constitutes a novel MPA assessment using multiple sampling methods to encompass a wide range of taxa. It also reinforces the importance of effective MPA monitoring, which has demonstrated changes in trait diversity and trait composition driven by changes in taxonomic diversity. © 2021 The Authors.

The whole-site approach applies consistent management, in this case excluding bottom towed fishing, across the full 206 km2 extent of the MPA, thus protecting a mosaic of reef-associated habitats from regular damage, while still allowing less destructive fishing methods, such as static gear, rod and line, and diving. To assess the effectiveness of this management strategy for mobile taxa and the sustainability for those taxa that continue to be targeted, Exploited and Non-Exploited species' populations were compared inside the MPA, relative to open control sites spanning 11 of the 12 years of designation. baited remote underwater video systems (BRUVs) were deployed annually to assess mobile benthic and demersal fauna. Overall, the number of taxa significantly increased in the MPA relative to the open controls while total abundance increased in both treatments. Exploited fish showed increases in number of taxa (430%) and total abundance (370%) inside the MPA over 11 years. Likewise, but to a lesser degree in the open controls, number of taxa of commercially Exploited fish increased over time, potentially showing ‘spillover’ effects from the MPA. Non-Exploited fish did not show such changes. Regardless of constituting the majority of the fishery value, highly valuable Exploited invertebrates showed no significant changes over time. Synthesis and applications. The Lyme Bay marine-protected area shows importance of protecting a whole site, comprising mosaics of different benthic habitats, through protection of sessile organisms that contribute to essential fish habitats.

With targets to protect 30% of marine areas by 2030, the effectiveness of MPAs to protect designated space is important. In Lyme Bay (south-west UK), two co-located MPAs have each adopted different management styles to exclude mobile demersal fishing: a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) protecting the known extent of sensitive reef habitat and an area including a mosaic of reef and sedimentary habitats where the whole site is protected from mobile demersal fishing under a statutory instrument (SI). Underwater videography, both towed (individuals m(-2)) and baited (MaxN), was used to enumerate change over time of reef species (number of taxa, total abundance, functional richness and functional redundancy) in the MPAs and nearby control areas (2008-2019). Total abundance and functional redundancy of sessile taxa and functional richness of mobile taxa increased, while the number of sessile or mobile taxa, functional richness of sessile taxa, total abundance of mobile taxa or functional redundancy of mobile taxa did not differ from nearby control sites. Over time, both management styles did result in increases in sessile and sedentary taxa diversity relative to open controls, with increases in total abundance of 15% and 95% in the ""feature-based"" and whole-site MPAs, respectively, alongside increases in the number of sessile taxa of 44% over time in the ""feature-based"" MPA. However, the mobile taxa in the whole-site MPA showed levels of functional redundancy 7% higher than the ""feature-based"" MPA, indicative of a higher community resilience inside the whole-site MPA to perturbations, such as storms or biological invasions. Increases seen in the diversity of sessile taxa were expected only in areas where mobile demersal fishing was excluded (similar to 46.8% of its areas). Therefore, if the whole ""feature-based"" MPA was consistently protected, we expected to see similar levels of increase in the functional extent of reef. While the ""feature-based"" MPA showed similar results over time to that of the ""whole site,"" the ""whole site"" showed higher levels of diversity, both taxonomical and functional.",,790-805,,6,29,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000825273600001,,,,,,,BACI; benthic; biodiversity; CHALLENGES; ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS; FRAMEWORK; FUNCTIONAL DIVERSITY; functional ecology; management; marine protected areas; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; PERMUTATION TESTS; RESERVES; SCIENCE; SERVICES; whole-site approach,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The reported effects of MPAs are overwhelmingly positive, with numerous reports of fish size (biomass), abundance (recovery) and diversity increases, however, literature is lacking on the role and consequences of MPAs on parasite and disease dynamics, and in particular, invertebrate health. The implementation of MPAs has been known to alter trophic cascades and community dynamics, and with invertebrates commonly at the base of these systems, it is vital that their status is investigated. Overcrowding in areas closed to fishing is known to have parasitological consequences in some scenarios, and land/water use change has been known to alter host and vector communities, possibly elevating disease risk. Equally, reserves can be used as tools for alleviating impacts of marine disease. This review aims to consolidate extant literature and provide a comprehensive viewpoint on how invertebrates (and their health status) can be affected by MPAs, which are increasingly being implemented based on the relative urgency now being placed on protecting global biodiversity. In highlighting the paucity of knowledge surrounding MPAs and disease, especially that of the unenigmatic invertebrate groups, this review, published in the Special Issue on ‘Invertebrates as One Health Sentinels’, provides an opportunity for wide dissemination and provocation of further research in this area. © 2020",,,,,186,,J.

In particular, there is an increasing need to consider the effects of climate change, especially the ability of ecosystems to resist and/or recover from climate-related disturbances, within the MPA planning process. However, there has been limited research addressing the incorporation of climate change resilience into MPA design. This study used Marxan conservation planning software with fine-scale shallow water (7lt;20 m) bathymetry and habitat maps, models of major benthic communities for deeper water, and comprehensive human use information from Ningaloo Marine Park in Western Australia to identify climate change resilience features to integrate into the incremental refinement of the marine park. The study assessed the representation of benthic habitats within the current marine park zones, identified priority areas of high resilience for inclusion within no-Take zones and examined if any iterative refinements to the current no-Take zones are necessary. Of the 65 habitat classes, 16 did not meet representation targets within the current no-Take zones, most of which were in deeper offshore waters. These deeper areas also demonstrated the highest resilience values and, as such, Marxan outputs suggested minor increases to the current no-Take zones in the deeper offshore areas. This work demonstrates that inclusion of fine-scale climate change resilience features within the design process for MPAs is feasible, and can be applied to future marine spatial planning practices globally. © 2016 Davies et al.

However, irrespectively from such ecological significance, CWCs are still vulnerable to human pressures such as fishing, pollution, ocean acidification and global warming Providing coherent and representative conservation of vulnerable marine ecosystems including CWCs is one of the aims of the Marine Protected Areas networks being implemented across European seas and oceans under the EC Habitats Directive, the Marine Strategy Framework Directive and the OSPAR Convention. In order to adequately represent ecosystem diversity, these initiatives require a standardised habitat classification that organises the variety of biological assemblages and provides consistent and functional criteria to map them across European Seas. One such classification system, EUNIS, enables a broad level classification of the deep sea based on abiotic and geomorphological features. More detailed lower biotope-related levels are currently under-developed, particularly with regards to deep-water habitats (>200 m depth). This paper proposes a hierarchical CWC biotope classification scheme that could be incorporated by existing classification schemes such as EUNIS. The scheme was developed within the EU FP7 project CoralFISH to capture the variability of CWC habitats identified using a wealth of seafloor imagery datasets from across the Northeast Atlantic and Mediterranean. Depending on the resolution of the imagery being interpreted, this hierarchical scheme allows data to be recorded from broad CWC biotope categories down to detailed taxonomy-based levels, thereby providing a flexible yet valuable information level for management. The CWC biotope classification scheme identifies 81 biotopes and highlights the limitations of the classification framework and guidance provided by EUNIS, the EC Habitats Directive, OSPAR and FAO; which largely underrepresent CWC habitats. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,102-109,,,145,,Deep-Sea Res.

LMPAs are expected to achieve multiple objectives, and because of their size are postulated to avoid trade-offs that are common in smaller MPAs. However, evaluations across multiple outcomes are lacking. We used a systematic approach to code several social and ecological outcomes of 12 LMPAs. We found evidence of three types of trade-offs: trade-offs between different ecological resources (supply tradeoffs); trade-offs between ecological resource conditions and the well-being of resource users (supply-demand trade-offs); and trade-offs between the well-being outcomes of different resource users (demand trade-offs). We also found several divergent outcomes that were attributed to influences beyond the scope of the LMPA. We suggest that despite their size, trade-offs can develop in LMPAs and should be considered in planning and design.

Of all species within large marine protected areas, 26.9% had at least 10% of their range represented, and this was projected to increase to 40.1% in 2100. Cumulative impacts were significantly higher within large marine protected areas than outside, refuting the critique that they only occur in pristine areas. We recommend future large marine protected areas be sited based on systematic conservation planning practices where possible and include areas beyond national jurisdiction, and provide five key recommendations to improve the long-term representation of all species to meet critical global policy goals (e.g., Convention on Biological Diversity's Aichi Targets). © 2017 The Author(s).",,,,1,7,,Sci.

We identified 67 dens during a 4-yr intensive radio-telemetry study (1992-1995): 40 dens of 21 radio-collared black bears and 27 dens found incidentally. Dens occurred in or beneath large diameter trees or wooden structures derived from trees (i.e., logs, root boles, and stumps; x=143cm diameter, SD=49cm). Longevity of dens varied by type, tree species that formed the den, and forest management that occurred at or near the den. Twenty-four of 28 dens of radio-collared bears that were monitored were still usable in 2010, whereas only 5 of 14 dens found incidentally were still usable in 2010. We assessed reuse of bear dens 3 times following initial identification: during the radio-telemetry study, again in 2000, and finally in 2010. Radio-collared bears reused dens from previous years on 7 of 25 potential occasions during the course of the radio-telemetry study. Upon assessment in 2000 and 2010, 17 of 24 (71%) available dens first used by radio-collared bears were reused at least once between 1993 and 2010. The high rate of reuse may indicate low availability of den structures in our study area. Because black bears in coastal British Columbia only used trees or structures derived from trees for winter dens and forest harvesting reduces the supply of these necessary structures, conservation and recruitment of suitable den trees is necessary if maintaining black bear populations is a management goal in these areas.

While gathering data on illegal fishing is difficult, it is necessary, as these data enable increased efficiency of compliance patrols, where resources are inherently limited. In particular, information about short-term temporal variations in illegal fishing in NTAs is needed to guide management and compliance efforts. To address this knowledge gap, daily variations in illegal fishing effort were examined using surveillance cameras at two sites in New South Wales, Australia. Generalised linear modelling (GLM) identified that illegal fishing was significantly greater on non-working days and during periods with no rain, light winds and slight seas. The GLM developed provided useful predictions of illegal activity in both the NTA used to build the model and in a second nearby NTA. The study demonstrated that illegal fishing was principally concentrated on days with good boating conditions and was greater at the study site closer to boat launching facilities. These insights will assist with future targeting of enforcement, community outreach and management efforts, which should focus on days and sites with an increased likelihood of illegal fishing. © 2020 Commonwealth of Australia.

Here, we present the results of an investigation into using species-area relationships (SARs) to define habitat conservation targets for two dominant taxonomic groups (fish and molluscs) using data from the Port Stephens estuary in New South Wales, Australia. Results demonstrated that planning conducted using variable habitat targets, based on SARs, provided significant improvements in representation of habitats and species, compared to planning using uniform (fixed percentage) habitat targets. Planning based on SARs was also found to provide significant improvements in species protection for fish and molluscs when compared with planning implemented without the benefit of detailed biodiversity information. However, SAR targets were found to be sensitive to the function type chosen to represent species distributions (i.e. power-law and exponential), and to the method used for estimation of species richness. Therefore, where SARs are used to set targets in conservation planning, it is important to ensure that they are representative of underlying species distributions. Overall, the improved performance of conservation planning based on SARs indicates the potential for broader application of this technique in planning marine protected areas. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,156-164,,,136,,Ocean Coast.

Herein we present the results of the first quantitative assessment of subtidal benthic communities within the estuary, involving 130km of towed video transects over an area exceeding 50km2. We identified previously undocumented macroalgae-dominated habitat types and found strong correlations between habitat types and depth. The soft coral Dendronephthya australis habitat is of particular interest because this was found to occur exclusively outside current sanctuary (no take) zones. The habitat map of Port Stephens generated during the study provides the basis for more objective representative planning in future iterations of zoning in the estuarine section of the marine park. The study also suggests that depth may be a useful proxy for estuarine habitat types where specific data are lacking.

This site has a high naturalistic value because it includes a wetland area today threatened in particular by coastal erosion and partly by climate change in progress. The analysis of the shoreline evolution shows that in the past, the wetland should be wider than the current one and, during the time, it was susceptible to an ongoing reduction due to a prevailing erosive trend. This erosive character resulted in reduced backshore width and the steepening of the shoreface. Seasonal morphological profiles show that the winter profile resembles much more a summer beach profile, while the summer profile is in part characterized by winter features. This anomalous climate regime occurring during 2017 belongs to a series of climate irregularity occurring in the last years along the Italian peninsula that testify an ongoing climate change at global scale. Two objectives are proposed: i) understanding the coastal dynamics processes that induce erosion phenomena; ii) editing the geomorphological map using the ISPRA-AIGeo legend recently applied for several Italian coastal sites.

This study examines livestock predation patterns and economic losses caused by the Himalayan black bear (Ursus thibetanus), Himalayan brown bear (Ursus arctos isabellinus), and common leopard (Panthera pardus) in the Kupwara region of the Western Himalayas, India. Over two years (2021–2022), data were collected from 32 villages in Handwara and Sogam-Lolab subdivisions through interviews with 258 respondents, including 50 herders. A total of 178 predation incidents were recorded, resulting in the loss of 287 livestock and an estimated economic impact of $42,683 USD. Sheep were the most frequently targeted species (75%), followed by goats (13%), cattle (9%), and horses (2%). Predation was most common in spring (55.7%) and summer (26.6%). Black bears were responsible for 69% of kills, leopards for 27%, and brown bears for 3%. Significant differences were observed in predation patterns by livestock age class and species, with sheep and young livestock being particularly vulnerable. Spatial analysis identified Handwara and Dorosa as predation hotspots using Kernel Density Estimation (KDE). The study highlights unattended grazing and poorly constructed corrals as key factors driving predation. Community-preferred mitigation strategies included financial compensation, removal of conflict animals, and incentives for constructing predator-proof enclosures. These findings emphasize the importance of targeted interventions, such as seasonal management strategies, improved livestock practices, and community engagement, to mitigate livestock predation risks. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2024.",,,,1,71,,Eur.

These basic components are necessary to ensure that any marine planning or marine management measures are both effective and efficient. While a number of fundamental principles for marine monitoring, evaluation and adaptive management exist, there are varying levels of understanding about how these should be undertaken and what they may achieve. Challenges include the development of realistic and measurable objectives and indicators against which effectiveness can be practically measured. The matter becomes even more complicated as the focus of marine planning and management strategies changes from 'single species' to 'habitats' and 'ecosystems' that may enable a diversity of permitted uses consistent with a variety of overall objectives. Over the last 30 years, the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (GBRMP) has successfully established a multiple-use spatial management approach that allows both high levels of environmental protection and a wide range of human activities.

The statutory zoning plan provides the primary integrating component that prohibits many threatening activities and manages the impacts of allowed human activities and competing uses by means of various zones, special management areas and other spatial management tools. How zoning is applied, however, has changed considerably since the first zoning plan was finalized in 1981. Today, zoning is applied in combination with other layers of marine spatial planning; the effective combination of these management tools provides the integrated approach, considered one of the best for managing a large marine protected area. The zoning plan provides the foundation for management of the GBR and is the fundamental component of the integrated marine spatial planning approach ensuring high levels of protection for significant areas of the GBR, while also allowing ecologically sustainable use. The paper outlines the legal and managerial contexts of zoning, providing 38 lessons that may be useful for marine zoning and ecosystem-based management elsewhere. It outlines aspects of zoning that have worked well in the GBR Marine Park and what has changed in the light of experience and changing contexts, and seeks to clarify various misconceptions about zoning and marine spatial planning. The integrated management approach in the GBR utilizes a variety of spatial planning tools, which complement the underlying zoning; some of these comprise statutory management layers (e.g. designated shipping areas, special management areas, plans of management, fishery management arrangements, Traditional Owner agreements, defence training areas); other layers are non-statutory (e.g. site plans).

The management needs that can be met with marine protected areas fall into corresponding categories. First, fully protected (that is, no-take) reserves - parks - offer benchmarks and protect ecosystem integrity while encouraging research, education, and aesthetic appreciation of nature. Second, by allowing focused local control of human impacts, marine protected areas can be used to focus more intense local management designed to increase yield and allow research to help define sustainability and protect against uncertainty by using carefully managed fisheries as a research tool. We have been gambling with the future by establishing a poor balance between short-term profit and long-term risks. The absence of meaningful, fully protected reserves has produced a situation in which there are virtually no areas north of the Antarctic in the world's oceans that have exploitable resources where scientists can study natural marine systems. In most areas the higher-order predators and many other important species have been virtually eliminated; many benthic habitats have been much changed by fishing activities. Without solid data documenting changes through time, the relative merits of various causes and effects that operate in complex ecological systems can always be argued. Without natural systems important questions cannot be studied - for example, how the ecosystem roles of various species can be assessed, how they can be managed in a sustainable manner, and how we can evaluate resilience or relative rates of recovery. Networks of fully-protected reserves could facilitate research into such questions, contribute to the recovery of many coastal systems, and enable society to enrich its existence by observing species that should be part of its heritage (Murray et al., 1999). The use of marine protected areas as fishing refugia has met strong resistance by fishers and many managers, and it is misunderstood by many conservation biologists because different proponents have different, usually simplistic, visions. It is important to spell out the objectives of each proposed example. Our essential habitat perspective emphasizes that each situation depends on specific life-history parameters and emphasizes critical thresholds in population dynamics, including density and behavior for fertilization, transport processes, settlement, survivorship, and growth to maturity. These are extremely difficult problems, and we cannot expect simplistic solutions to be effective. The only basis for optimism is that most of the seriously affected species are not yet extinct, and we still have a little time to establish permanent fully protected reserves to allow mankind to appreciate its rich but much depleted biological heritage. At least in some systems recovery can be measured over short time scales (<10 yrs), whereas others are much slower. Society as a whole is the ultimate stakeholder, not only the commercial and sports fishing industries that so dominate the public arena.

In the Paraense Coastal Zone (ZCPA), UCs still suffer the effects of the absence of instruments that do not allow their effectiveness in the constitution of new protected scenarios. This article aims to present a proposal for ZCPA Geoenvironmental Zoning from the UCs established as a subsidy and contribution to environmental planning, having as analysis methodology the zoning proposed from the Hierarchical Analytical Process-AHP and the DPSIR model (Força, Pressure, State, Impact, Response).

This study aims to analyze the perceptions and socioeconomic characteristics of divers and artisanal fishers of an offshore MPA, located in Brazilian waters. Data on the perceptions, conflicts, and management of the MPA were gathered through questionnaires and interviews with local actors. The results show that scuba divers and fishers consider the MPA to be very important for biodiversity. They also consider their collaboration in participative management to be of considerable importance, even though they do not form part of the administration. For local actors, the area helps foster the preservation of the marine environment and benefits recreational diving, tourism, and artisanal fishery in local communities. Divers and fishers use the resources and space of the offshore area differently, which results in diverging perceptions and conflicts. Divers propose restricted protection (No-Take Zones), while fishers propose that the MPA should be used exclusively by the poor local communities for artisanal fishing. Conflicts arising from inefficient public administration (lack of environmental zoning, management plans, and participative management) and illegal use of the MPA were also identified. Data stemming from the local actors themselves are central to reducing the conflicts and improving public policies on offshore marine conservation. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,107-113,,,76,,Mar.

Through the analysis of the temperature of the canopy, it is possible to infer about the physiological aspects of the plants, helping to understand the behavior of the vegetation and, consequently, in the environmental monitoring and management of green areas. This study aims to validate the MOD11A2 V006 product from canopy surface temperature data obtained by an infrared radiation sensor. For the validation of the MOD11A2 product, a comparative analysis was performed between the land surface temperature (LST) data, obtained by the MODIS sensor, and the canopy temperature data, obtained by the SI-111 infrared radiation sensor coupled to the Itatiaia National Park (PNI) micrometeorological tower. Meteorological variables and land surface temperature collected from January to December 2018 in the PNI were also analyzed. The results reveal that the MOD11A2 product overestimates the canopy temperature in the daytime (MB ranging from 1.56 to 3.57 °C) and underestimates in the night time (MB ranging from ? 0.18 to ? 4.22 °C). During daytime, the months corresponding to the dry season presented a very high correlation (r = 0.74 and 0.86) and the highest values for the Willmott index (d = 0.70 and 0.64). At nighttime, the MOD11A2 product did not present a good performance for the LST estimation, especially in the rainy season. Therefore, we observed that the MOD11A2 product has limitations to estimate the land surface temperature and that possible changes in the algorithm of this product can be performed for high atmospheric humidity conditions. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG part of Springer Nature.",,,,1,193,,Environ.

Studies on mosquitoes from predominantly sylvatic areas produce valuable data for understanding the emergence of new epidemics. In addition, they can elucidate environmental components favoring or hindering biodiversity and species distribution. Our study aimed to evaluate the monthly distribution, composition, diversity, and influence of seasonal periods (dry and rainy) on the mosquito fauna. We used CDC light traps at different levels in a forest area bordering a Conservation Unit of Nova Iguaçu in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Specimens were collected from August 2018 to July 2019 by installing traps in sampling sites under different vegetation covers. We detected some species of epidemiological importance in terms of arbovirus transmission. A total of 4,048 specimens representing 20 different species were collected. Among them, Aedes (Stg.) albopictus Skuse, 1894 showed recurrent association with the closest level to human residences and Haemagogus (Con.) leucocelaenus Dyar and Shannon, 1924 with the most distant levels. Since these mosquitoes are possible vectors of yellow fever, monitoring the area is extremely important. Under the studied conditions, the mosquito populations were directly influenced by dry and rainy periods, posing a risk to the nearby resident population. © 2023 The Author(s).

In the first decades, the richness of species and their origin were not questionable, since the restoration was intended to restore only ecosystem services. Currently, however, high diversity is required and only native species are accepted by environmental laws. In order to verify if the numbers of native and exotic species used in ecological restoration have changed over time, we assessed 44 riparian forests undergoing restoration in the state of Săo Paulo. All study areas were restored from 1957 to 2008, in sites where the former vegetation was seasonal forest (FES). At each site we sampled all trees planted in a total area of 1000 m2, divided in plots randomly distributed. We classified as exotics all species whose native range is not the Seasonal Atlantic Forest. The total number of species sampled per site ranged from 12 to 58 and exotic species were recorded in all sites. The number of species recorded increased from an average of 25 species in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, to 33 species from 2000 to 2008. However, the number of alien species has also increased in the same period. Rules aiming at high diversity in ecological restoration may have been successful, but the use of exotic species in restoration projects have increased in recent years.

Unlike the already identified onshore wind potential- with over 14 GW installed in the form of onshore wind turbines-offshore wind potential research is absent and restricted to limited areas. In this context, this study aims to identify offshore wind potential throughout the Brazilian coast for electricity generation. The research method took into account the average annual wind velocity records as 100 m/s, as well as bathymetry and the distance from the coast baseline, to classify areas displaying the greatest potential, applying an analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to the geographic information system for the identification of potential offshore wind energy exploration sites. Environmental conservation units were considered exclusion areas. The installable capacity using aerogenerators was estimated at 3 TW, while an annual average power production of 14,800 TWh was calculated for the sum of the viable areas. These results demonstrate that the wind potential identified throughout the Brazilian coast provides the conditions for significant energy sector development. To this end, it is necessary to establish an ecological economic zoning of the areas displaying the greatest potential identified herein for the beginning of offshore exploration in Brazil. © 2020 by the authors.

This study was aimed at determining the diversity of anurans in Parque Estadual Fritz Plaumann (PEFP), located in the municipality of Concórdia, Santa Catarina, southern Brazil. The PEFP comprises 741 ha, and is the only Conservation Unit of Seasonal Forest in Santa Catarina state. From August 2010 to July 2011 we surveyed frogs fortnightly during four to ten days, from sunset until approximately midnight.

The sampling effort of the survey was evaluated with species accumulation curve considering the field expeditions as sample units. The species composition of PEFP was compared with 16 other different vegetal formations of the Atlantic Forest biome through similarity analysis. Twenty-three species were recorded. The accumulation curve approached an asymptote, indicating that most species of the area were observed. Most species were observed in lentic habitats of open areas. The anuran species composition of PEFP was similar to other areas of Mixed Ombrophile Forest and Seasonal Forest in southern region. Although PEFP comprised a relatively small area, the occurrence of habitat specialists, endangered amphibians that dependent on the forest, indicates the importance of this area for the conservation of the regional fauna.

Over the past decades increased urbanization has created more pressure - not only on the suburban outskirts - but also in the inner core of the cities, putting important environmental issues such as water management and cultural heritage under stress. Cultural heritage, either standing monuments or archaeological remains, is internationally recognized as an important legacy of our history. The European Convention on the Protection of the Archaeological Heritage incorporates concepts and ideas that have become accepted practice in Europe. Conservation and enhancement of archaeological heritage is one of the goals of urban planning policies. One of the key objectives of the European policy is to protect, preferably in-situ, archaeological remains buried in the soil or seabed and to incorporate archaeological heritage into spatial planning policies. Conflicts with prior uses and unappreciated impacts on other subsurface resources, amongst them archaeological heritage, make use of underground space in cities suboptimal. In terms of ecosystem services, the subsurface environment acts either as a carrier of archaeological heritage in situ (stewardship) or supports above-ground cultural heritage. Often, it's not enough to protect the heritage site or monument itself: new developments outside a specific protected area can lead to changes in groundwater level, and cause serious damage to heritage buildings and archaeological deposits.

When developing spatial conservation and management tools, the design has mainly focused on population-level measures of fish home ranges, spawning and feeding areas, and migration routes. Intraspecific differences in fish behaviour, however, are often not accounted for, even though they could influence the level of realized protection. In this study, we investigated the intraspecific variation in spatial behaviour of a harvested fish, Diplodus sargus, and how it impacts the degree of protection granted by a NTA in the south of Portugal. We identified four behavioural types according to their spatial behaviour: residents, commuters, seasonal visitors, and single users. Time at risk (i.e. outside the NTA) greatly varied among the four groups, but also over the year for the seasonal and the single users. Our study shows how acoustic telemetry can assist spatial conservation and fisheries management and provides novel insight regarding the role of individual variation in behaviour to understand protection granted by MPAs to harvested species. It also suggests that incorporating such information into all stages of MPA design and implementation can result in increased resilience of the protected populations. © 2022 The Author(s).

On 22 October 2015, Palau placed approximately 80% of its maritime territory in a network of locally monitored MPAs, which has now shown a population increase in stationary and migratory fish species. This movement towards a MPA was intentional and because of increased pressure from tourism and the increasing incursion of foreign fishing vessels in Palauan territorial waters.

The Brazilian Cerrado, considered the savanna with the highest biodiversity, is characterized by climatic seasonality, vegetation mosaics and topographic variations that together with fire determine its different plant physiognomies. The Chapada das Mesas National Park (CMNP), located in the south of the state of Maranhăo (Brazil), has different savanna plant physiognomies with high ecological potential and archaeological and water wealth. The aim of the present study was to reconstruct the fire history over 28 years for the park and its surroundings (20 km buffer area), endeavouring to understand the impact of the creation of this National Park on its fire regime. Landsat satellite images were used from the TM, ETM + and OLI sensors to map the fire scars, which were identified and vectorized manually. The database created was used to analyze the total annual burned area, burned area percentage, density ignition, mean burn scar area and fire frequency during the mapped period. In total, 86 % of the CMNP was burn at least once between 1990 and 2017, while 72 % of the buffer area was burn. The creation of the park had significant effects on the density ignition when the periods before (1990–2005) and after (2006–2017) its creation were compared, and showed no significant effects on total annual area burned and average burn scar area. Despite the amount of burned area over time did not change significantly between the years before and after, the main change was observed in the fire seasonality after the creation of the park. In the park, 38 % of the area had a frequency of burn areas higher than ten times in the 28-year interval while 13 % of the buffer area was burn more than 10 times. In contrast, 23 % and 15 % had a fire frequency of 2 to 4 times on the buffer and the park respectively. Although the park was created to mitigate the human impacts of fire, the geographic isolation, the current occupation of the park by local populations and the pressure from agricultural expansion in the surroundings are influencing these conservation measures.

Serra do Japi Biological Reserve exhibited a richness of 34 non-volant mammal species; distributed into eight orders and 21 families, among them two species of domestic mammals. The greatest number of species was identified by the methodology of sand plots (n = 18) followed by visualization (n = 17), identification of tracks (n = 14), camera traps (n = 9) and feces collection (n = 10). Despite being a fully protected reserve, Serra do Japi Biological Reserve is intensively visited by tourists and hikers, mainly on weekends, since monitored visits are allowed by the management. In the present study, species that could indicate disturbance, such as Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris and Didelphis aurita, did not show high frequency of capture, showing that despite the invasion by exotic and domestic species, as well as the anthropic pressure, the area is still in a good conservation status.",,1369-1386,,5,29,,Biosci.

This research used institutional analysis to integrate studies of sustainable territorial development with coastal fishing in three Brazilian MPAs: the Canavieiras (Bahia) and Itaipu (Rio de Janeiro) Extractive Reserves and the Ecological Station of Tamoios (Rio de Janeiro). Ostrom's Principles (1990) - reviewed by Cox et al. (2010) - were contrasted with the situation of fishing in MPAs in the period of analysis and the fishers’ demands for institutional changes. Principles analysis indicated structural weaknesses of the state to promote continuous actions of monitoring resources and users, as well as in the application of graduated sanctions. The design principles most closely associated with the construction of territorial development strategies were related to the rules of appropriation and provision, and nested enterprises. MPAs, as institutional innovations, can act on territorial development dynamics to provide systemic responses capable of preventing the degradation of fisheries resources and marginalisation of users. The sustainable territorial development approach introduces innovative issues for MPAs management, such as territorial identity, integrated production systems and innovation. The perspective on MPAs presented aims to contribute to a quality based fisheries management model, rather than the usual productivity focus. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,92-101,,,139,,Ocean Coast.

These conflicts begin with disputes over territorial ownership. They affect local livelihoods, access to and use of space and natural resources, and create power asymmetries. In response to these conflicts, the Federal Conservation Agency has put forward norms that guarantee inclusive arenas for local people to take part in negotiations with park managers. In this study, environmental conflicts caused by the implementation of parks overlapping local population territories are analyzed aiming to understand their role as mechanisms promoting institutional changes. We collected data from two communities that overlap the Serra da Bocaina National Park through interviews, workshops, and direct observations. For each community, we characterized conflicts involving the community and Park officers. We identified consequences to the community’s livelihoods and analyzed their influence on institutional change. The results suggest that one community responded to conservation conflicts through actions towards negotiation and collaboration with the national park. The other community promoted changes in agricultural production methods and sought new markets as a strategy for staying in the territory. Conflicts are effective as a mechanism for institutional changes, as local actors articulate with autonomous organizations at different levels. We highlight the importance of a continuous documentation on conflicts and their consequences to rural livelihoods in both communities and conflict management actions taken by the Park in the long term. © 2020, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.",,1012-1023,,6,66,,Environ.

Bayesian analysis of the ITS1 spacer of the ribosomal gene also showed the existence of two clusters: one composed by the Mexican populations, and another in which the Central American ones assembled (Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Costa Rica). The combined results confirm the presence of two taxonomic units: one distributed in southern Mexico (ranging from the Yucatan peninsula to the north of Guatemala), and a Central American unit found from the southern part of Guatemala down to Costa Rica.

Therefore, the objective of the present study was to analyze the temporal and spatial behavior of the occurrences of fires from 2003 to 2017 in the Brazilian biomes: Amazonia, Caatinga, Cerrado, Mata Atlântica, Pantanal and Pampa, including incidences in the areas of Conservation Units, possible patterns of distribution of forest fire outbreaks, as well as the statistical trend of its occurrence. Geospatial data were used from 2003 to 2017 of the AQUA_M-T reference satellite obtained from the National Space Research Institute and from the Conservation Units provided by the Ministry of the Environment. Statistically, the Kernel algorithm was applied to analyze the spatial distribution from the mean of the time series studied, and the non-parametric Mann-Kendall test, also considering its Long Range Persistence to verify the tendency of the occurrence. It was observed that the Amazon and Cerrado biomes have, respectively, the largest fires, with the Cerrado having a larger area burned. Consequently, the Conservation Units located in these biomes had a higher amount of fires. The tendency statistical analysis indicated that the growth of the occurrence of fire has seasonality in all the biomes, with the Pampa being characterized by a natural condition. Therefore, the study allowed to quantify and to identify, spatially, the largest fires in the Brazilian Biomes, as well as in the Conservation Units in each respective biome for the studied series, serving as a basis for fire prevention and control measures, mainly in which that have the highest occurrences in the country. © 2020, Universidade Federal de Santa Maria.

Such understanding can be approached with the Drivers-Pressures-State change-Impacts-Response framework (DPSIR), incorporating stakeholders' preferences for ecosystem services to assess impacts on society. This framework was adapted to six locations in the central coast of Chile, where artisanal fisheries coexist with an increasing influx of tourists, and a set of fisheries management areas alternate with open access areas and a no-take Marine Protected Area (MPA). The ecosystem services in the study area were quantified using biomass and species richness in intertidal and subtidal areas as biological indicators. The demand for ecosystem services was elicited by interviews to the principal groups of users. Our results evidenced decreasing landings and a negative perception of fishermen on temporal trends of catches. The occurrence of recreational fishing was negligible, although the consumption of seafood by tourists was relatively high. Nevertheless, the consumption of organisms associated to the study system was low, which could be linked, amongst other factors, to decreasing catches. The comparison of biological indicators between management regimens provided variable results, but a positive effect of management areas and the MPA on some of the metrics was observed. The prioritising of ecosystem attributes by tourists was highly homogenous across the six locations, with ""scenic beauty"" consistently selected as the preferred attribute, followed by ""diversity"". The DPSIR framework illustrated the complex interactions existing in these locations, with weak linkages between society's priorities, existing management objectives and the state of biological communities. Overall, this work improved our knowledge on relations between components of coastal areas in central Chile, of paramount importance to advance towards an ecosystem-based management in the area. © 2015 Elsevier B.V.",,122-132,,,533,,Sci.

Many marine ecosystems are currently threatened by fishing activities, such as bottom trawling, gillnets and demersal and pelagic long-lines. Especially vulnerable are areas described as either sensitive habitats or essential fish habitats. Among these we highlight the associations of sessile organisms, such as cold coral reefs, mostly detected on continental slopes, seamounts and on the walls of submarine canyons, and those areas considered as hot spots of diversity and habitat of vulnerable fauna, like cold seeps, hydrothermal vents and submarine canyons. Essential habitats for pelagic species are defined by oceanographic features like productive areas associated with upwelling, and in the Mediterranean the spawning areas and migratory routes of bluefin tuna, swordfish, and albacore are of high conservation interest. We propose that in a context of difficult fisheries management in Mediterranean international waters, or high seas, these vulnerable habitats should be protected through the establishment of a web of Marine Protected Areas coordinated by all the involved countries and controlled by strict surveillance. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,717-723,,11,53,,Ocean Coast.

We focused on this problem with the goal of identifying community components, based on a Biological Traits Analysis, that respond to fishing activities to ultimately define ecosystem health. We sampled a set of study sites subjected to benthic invertebrate gathering, and more recently to kelp harvesting. Sites included paired fishery restricted and open access areas where mobile invertebrates and sessile benthos were surveyed. In addition, kelp density and size structure were assessed in two sites subjected to kelp harvesting (also pairing restricted and open access areas). Target species exhibited higher densities in fishery-restricted areas. Fisheries restricted-areas also showed overall higher richness and redundancy of biological traits. Otherwise, we observed high variability in the structure of sessile benthos linked to small-scale heterogeneity of the seabed. The areas subjected to kelp harvesting exhibited variability in mobile invertebrates' composition between fishing access regimes, whereas no effects could be detected by only considering target species. Current monitoring efforts seem to be well-suited to address target species but fail to inform on ecosystem health in an area with increasing signs of community-wide effects from fishing.

Methods: I have made a thorough search of the relevant literature, and among the available sources have made especial use of two lists of endangered birds, published in 1955 and 1956, and three official red data books, from 1986, 1992 and 2003. For each threatened species short information is given on population estimates and trends, and eventually, on range trends. Results: Numbers of threatened species and average levels of the threat categories went down between 1992 and 2003, partly as a result of the application at national levels of the IUCN criteria for assigning threat categories. In the whole period 1954-2004 a general improvement in the situation of endangered species is also apparent. However, this improvement greatly varies among the different ecological groupings of birds that may be recognised, being good as a rule among waterbirds, raptors and woodland birds, and bad among birds of pseudosteppes and other agricultural environments. Conclusions: The important changes that have taken place in Spain regarding hunting and conservation laws, protected areas network, and general attitude of citizens towards nature, may account for much of the general improvement recorded so far, but certain conservation problems arising from modern changes in the rural environment, especially in agriculture and forestry, affect in different ways the different species assemblages. The positive trends observed in woodland birds and the negative ones in birds depending on agriculture are broadly coincident with those reported from other Western European countries. The apparent drawback in the situation of seabirds is partly related to a rising in the available information, since knowledge on this group was rather scanty until the 1980's. Future priorities in bird conservation in Spain should include fighting against the illegal use of poisons for predator control, moving forward in the reform of the CAP with environmental criteria, and keeping or increasing the current bird census and monitoring efforts.",,19-50,,,51,,,"Cambios en el estado de conservación de las aves en Espańa, ańos 1954 a 2004",,,,,SEO/ Birdlife,,Spanish,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: Ardeola,,,,Aves; Birds; Conservation; Raptores; Raptors; Red data books; Seabirds; Spain; Status; Steppe birds; Waterbirds; Woodland birds,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Ardeola,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Although disputed knowledge is known to affect deliberation, the role of perceptions is understudied. Based on a case study in the Dutch Wadden Sea, a marine protected area, we examine the social representations of shellfish fisheries and marine nature of stakeholders within one deliberative governance arrangement, the Mussel Covenant. Our results show that within this covenant there are two opposing social representations of marine nature which both are not in line with the agreed objectives. Instead, governmental policies still form the guidelines to covenant decisions. We conclude that diverging representations and state-influence decrease deliberation. Therefore, we argue that deliberative governance is not possible without explicitly considering the different cognitive, normative and expressive meanings attached to the marine area or issue at stake. To achieve deliberation, values of stakeholders should explicitly be acknowledged and discussed, and state-influence should be kept to a minimum. © 2020 The Authors",,,,,198,,Ocean Coast.

Remote sensing has been a key tool to monitoring these changes throughout history and also to understanding the ecological dynamics. Hence, sustainable development plans have been created in order to improve the decisionmaking process; thus, this paper analyses deforestation impact in a very important natural resourcing area in Mexico, considering land cover changes. The study area is located in the coast of Jalisco, Mexico, where deforestation and fragmentation as well as high speed touristic development have been the causes of enormous biodiversity losses; the Chamela-Cuixamala Biosphere Reserve is located within this area. It has great species richness and vast endemism. The exploitation of this biome is widespread all over the country and it has already had an impact in the reserve. The change detection multi-temporal study uses Landsat satellite imagery during the 1970-2003 time period. Thus, the objective of change detection analysis is to detect and localize environmental changes through time. The change detection method consists in producing an image of change likelihood (by post-classification, multivariate alteration detection) and thresholding it in order to produce the change map. Experimental results confirmed that the patterns of land use and land cover changes have increased significantly over the last decade. This study also analyzes the deforestation impact on biodiversity. The analysis validation was carried out using field and statistic data. Spatial-temporal changing range enables the analysis of the structural and dynamic effects on the ecosystem and it enhances better decision-making and public environmental policies to decrease or eliminate deforestation, the creation of natural protected areas as a biodiversity conservation method, and counteracting the global warming phenomena. © 2009 SPIE.",,,,,7472,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Proc SPIE Int Soc Opt Eng,,,,Agriculture; Anthropogenic activity; Biodiversity; Biodiversity conservation; Biodiversity loss; Biosphere reserve; Change detection; Change detection analysis; Change detection techniques; Conservation; Decision making process; Deforestation; Dynamic effects; Ecological dynamics; Ecosystems; Environmental change; Environmental policy; Environmental protection; Global warming; Hydrology; land cover change; Land cover change; Land use; Land use and land cover change; Landforms; Landsat satellite; MAD; Me-xico; Multi-temporal; Natural factors; Post classification; Protected areas; remote sensing; Remote sensing; Resourcing; Satellite imagery; Signal detection; Spatial temporals; Species richness; Statistic data; Strategic planning; Study areas; Thresholding; Time periods; Vegetation cover; Water,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Their correct delimitation is challenging, especially when the target species are small, elusive and inconspicuous, as little data are generally available to adequately assess their distribution at sea. Therefore, currently designated MPAs may not effectively cover key areas for small seabirds, particularly during migration and wintering seasons. We used ensemble species distribution models (ESDMs) on a 15-year time-series data set of at-sea census along the Atlantic Iberian arc to predict the potential distribution of the smallest European seabird, the European storm-petrel (Hydrobates pelagicus), and compare it with official marine special protection areas (SPAs). Occurrence of European storm-petrel was related to shifts in sea surface temperature, and to small distances from the coast over the continental shelf. Most relevant area for the species in the Atlantic Iberian arc was west-central Portugal to north-western coast of the Iberian Peninsula, with an additional key area in the Gulf of Cádiz. Both zones host significant SPAs, but they inadequately cover key areas for European storm-petrels. Our findings support extending marine SPAs in the Atlantic Iberian arc to ensure their effective protection. The distribution of the species expands over the years, varying in both size and location. These changes might be attributed to dynamic oceanographic variables, such as sea surface temperature and biomass of micronekton, which seem to play a significant role in their foraging behaviour. Synthesis and applications. Our study highlights the importance of analysing long time series and ESDMs to design adequate protected areas, which ensure the conservation of small and highly mobile species such as storm petrels. Our results should be considered by decision-makers to prioritise and update marine protected areas, while incorporating the dynamic nature of the ocean within an ecosystem-based approach. © 2023 The Authors.

To shed more light on the factors promoting differences in avian communities between and within exotic tree (Monterey Pine Pinus radiata and Eucalyptus spp.) plantations and native forests in the Urdaibai area (northern Spain), this study aimed to explore (1) how the type of habitat and vegetation characteristics affect bird species richness and the settlement of some particular species during the breeding period, (2) if some reproductive parameters (i.e. egg-laying date and clutch size) vary among habitats in a generalist bird species (the Great Tit Parus major), and (3) the existence of differences among habitats in the abundance of a key food resource on which some insectivorous birds are expected to rely upon for breeding (i.e. caterpillars). Our results confirmed that Eucalyptus stands house the poorest bird communities, and identified understory development as an important determinant for the establishment of titmice species. Furthermore, we found that exotic trees showed lower caterpillar abundance than native Oak trees (Quercus robur), which might contribute to explain observed differences among habitats in bird abundance and richness in this region. However, we did not find differences among habitats in egg-laying date and clutch size for the Great Tit, suggesting that the potential costs of breeding in exotic tree plantations would occur in later stages of the reproductive period (e.g. number of nestlings fledged), a circumstance that will require further research. © 2013 Museu de Cičncies Naturals de Barcelona.",,153-163,,2,36,,Anim.

Therefore, it is necessary to consider these impacts when managing marine areas. One of the most applied tools in recent years to deal with this are species distribution models, however there are still some challenges to solve, such as the inclusion of hydrodynamic predictors and the application of effective, transferable and user-oriented methodologies. Five species (Saccorhiza polyschides, Gelidium spinosum, Sargassum muticum, Pelvetia canaliculata and Cystoseira baccata)in Europe and 15 variables were considered. Nine of them were projected to the RCPs 4.5 and 8.5 for the mid-term (2040–2069)and the long term (2070–2099). Algorithms for each species were applied to generate models that were assessed by comparison of probabilities and observations (area under the curve, true skill statistics, Boyce index, sensitivity, correct classification rate), niches overlap (Schoener's D, Hellinger's I), geographical similarity (interquartile range)and ecological realism. Models built demonstrated very good predictive accuracy and sensitivity, without overfitting risk. A medium overlap in the historical and RCPs environmental conditions were obtained, therefore the models can be considered transferable and results accurate because only some isolated points were detected as outliers, corresponding to low probabilities. The areas of S. polyschides and G. spinosum have been identified to be dramatically reduced, meanwhile S. muticum and C. baccata were predicted to expand their range. P. canaliculata was expected to keep its sites of presence but with a decrease in its probability of occurrence. For all species it was remarkable the importance of hydrodynamic variables and parameters representing extreme conditions. Spatially predictions of the potential species and areas at risk are decisive for defining management strategies and resource allocation. The performance and usefulness of the approach applied in this study have been demonstrated for algae with different ecological requirements (from upper littoral to subtidal)and distributional patterns (native and invasive), therefore results can be used by marine planners with different goals: marine protected areas designation, monitoring efforts guiding, invasions risk assessment or aquaculture facilities zonation. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,01-Nov,,,148,,Mar.

Our objective was to determine the density of jaguars in southern Montes Azules Biosphere Reserve and to estimate population size inside the Natural Protected Areas of this Ecosystem. Jaguar densities were estimated during the dry and rainy seasons of 2007 and the dry season of 2008 using camera-trapping combined with closed capture-recapture models. The lowest density estimate was recorded during the 2007 dry season (1.7 ± SE 0.7 per 100 km 2) and the highest during the 2008 rainy season (4.6 ± SE 1.6 per 100 km 2). Estimating the extent of potential jaguar habitat in the Natural Protected Areas and extrapolating density estimates to these reserves indicates that they could support 62-168 jaguars.

Thirteen epibenthic habitats were identified by analysing 55 Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) transects from 76 m to 700 m depth and derived data from multibeam bathymetry and high resolution seismic profiles. Habitat identification was based on a combination of assemblages of habitat-forming species and the environmental characteristics supporting their distribution. Depth and slope were identified as the main significant factors structuring epibenthic assemblages. The high diversity and patchiness of habitats found on the Seco de los Olivos Seamount can be explained by the high environmental variability resulting from its wide geomorphologic diversity, where flat summits, steep flanks, rocky outcrops and sedimentary moats are combined. The distribution of benthic habitats at this seamount is likely a combination of suitable ecological conditions, local recruitment, feeding strategies and attachment mechanisms. Knowledge on the occurrence of habitats in areas of natural importance is crucial to species and habitats conservation and to develop proper monitoring and management programs aimed at fulfilling European regulation requirements. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,Sep-22,,,135,,Deep-Sea Res.

Addressing this critical conservation threat requires understanding the drivers of poisoning behaviours and the social contexts in which they occur. This study across 10 communities in two protected areas aimed to provide a first assessment of this phenomenon. We used the theory of planned behaviour to measure socio-psychological determinants of behaviour and deepened this understanding using informant interviews and focus group discussions. Informants reported that so-called termite poisons, including powerful carbamates, are deliberately deposited at waterholes to catch wildlife for consumption. This method is perceived to be low effort and high efficacy, and perceptions of the health risks vary. Predominant users are young men and children, but it is unclear whether the practice is related to food insecurity. Threatened wildlife species reported as affected include the giant ibis Pseudibis gigantea and vulture species. Overall, social norms are strongly negative towards poisoning; 75% of survey respondents perceived negative norms because of impacts on human and livestock health, environmental quality, and risks of legal sanctions. This has led to interventions by local authorities in half of the studied villages. We suggest that future interventions should raise the salience of negative norms by providing a non-conflictual mechanism for community members to participate in monitoring and sanctioning, such as a reporting hotline. Regulatory interventions are also required to control the supply of restricted pesticides.  © 2020 The Author(s).

The Coppermine Peninsula (Robert Island, South Shetland Islands archipelago) possesses one of the richest flora in Antarctica, being classified as an Antarctic Specially Protected Area (ASPA). There, a small refuge (Luis Risopatrón) has been seasonally occupied for scientific purposes since 1957, although no studies on the anthropic disturbances in the surroundings soils are reported. The aim of this study was the determination of the potentially toxic metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Pb, V, and Zn) mass fractions in surface soils (n = 40) collected at the surroundings of the Luis Risopatrón refuge. Enrichment factors (EF) and geoaccumulation index (Igeo) were also calculated, using Zr as the reference element, in order to evaluate the anthropogenic impacts of these small buildings in the studied area. The main contaminants were Pb and Zn, which presented EF and Igeovalues ranging from 1.0 to 18.3 and from ?1.8 to 3.5. The mass fractions of these elements determined after an aqua regia extraction varied from 5.4 to 102 mg kg?1Pb and from 43 to 210 mg kg?1Zn. These results highlight that a small refuge can show environmental disturbance from low to moderate, with few hotspots with heavily contaminated soils.

The analysis of soil microtopography is one of the methods to measure the evolution and development of this process, especially in areas under intensive use, such as trails in conservation units. The coast of Serra da Bocaina National Park, in Rio de Janeiro State, has several sites of geotouristic interest, that attract countless visitors daily, therefore triggering several environmental impacts on the trails that give access to these attractions. Therefore, this research aimed to evaluate the spatio-temporal evolution of erosive processes on the two trails ground in this park, by monitoring the soil microtopography in two different periods. Subsequently, the results were correlated with rainfall data and with the physiographic characteristics of the area. It was found that both monitored points are suffering from soil loss, mainly due to high rainfall, which is concentrated in December and January. The intense and disordered visitation, the vegetation cover and the amount of litter were factors that possibly influenced the evolution of these processes in the bed of the trails, generating different dynamics between the monitored points. © 2023 Uniao Brasileira de Geomorfologia.

In conservation studies, groups of vertebrates, plants and arthropods are generally used together but other invertebrates scarcely used. In the present work, we aim to provide information on new species of freshwater gastropods, from protected and unprotected areas. Specimens were collected in a protected area (Yabotí Biosphere Reserve) and in two unprotected areas (Alba Posse city and Centro de Investigaciones Antonia Ramos -CIAR-). The shell, radula, internal anatomy and the molecular information of the partial sequence of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) were analysed. The phylogenetic trees were obtained using Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian Inference analyses. Altogether, the anatomical, shell, and genetic studies allow us to differentiate six new species of the genus Potamolithus from the others present in Argentina and the surrounding areas. These new species raise the number of freshwater gastropods for the malacological province Río Uruguay to 64. Three of the new species have been found within a protected area, while other three at unprotected areas. The presence of invasive species, such as Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker 1857) and Melanoides tuberculata (Müller, 1774), as well as the possible creation of a hydroelectric dam, may modify the environment inhabited by the new endemic fauna. © 2021 Elsevier GmbH",,92-110,,,292,,Zool.

Therefore, semi-structured interviews were conducted with individuals and entities related to the EPA. The snowball method complemented the mapping of non-official social actors. The discussion was based on the critical approach of environmental education, polycentric governance, adaptive management, environmental advocacy and case studies about education in protected areas. Results showed nine key stakeholders to be considered in a network program for the EPA’s participatory management, including government, schools, local and nearby residents and religious groups.

The extensiveness of nine municipalities in the Serra do Tabuleiro State Park (PEST—acronym in portuguese) within the limits of the Park, along with the development of cities, displays many interests and land conflicts in the Park. This situation forced, in 2009, governmental parties to establish a new demarcation process, aiming the removal of conflict areas and creation of new categories of protected areas. In this context, this paper aims to report the PEST history, collecting environmental characteristics and land use owned by the environmental protection area of surrounding coastal of the Serra do Tabuleiro State Park, in the northeastern portion of the Baixada Massiambu, the locations of the Pinheira and Guarda do Embaú beaches, in city of Palhoça/SC, Brazil. On this regard, a literature research was performed, referring to the uses of the area under study, as well as the legal and territory definitions; then, field visits were performed from March 2012 to March 2014, and finally, data collected were aggregated using geographic information systems, along with data regarding the ecological and legal characteristics of the area. Results displayed 6501 plots of land on the Pinheira and Guarda do Embaú beaches, and of these, 77% had no environmental restrictions, 13% had partial restrictions, and 10% presented total restrictions. Thus, the PEST delimitation demonstrated great ecological significance for human settlement, especially in some detached areas, which should be kept and preserved. This work makes a valuable contribution to the understanding of the Baixada Massiambu problem, mainly related to land use; protective measures and environmental recovery can be formulated in this region, taking into consideration aspects such as environmental planning and mechanisms of reorganization discussion for this territory. © 2018, Springer Science+Business Media B.V., part of Springer Nature.",,1225-1250,,3,21,,Environ.

This network can be considered the cornerstone of the European Union (EU) nature conservation policy in order to ensure the long-term protection of endangered species in their natural habitats. The European Union has adopted an integration approach to the Natura 2000 network. The integration approach is based on combining human activities and nature conservation purposes in Natura 2000 sites and in neighbouring areas. Furthermore, the stakeholders' involvement in the site management is considered a fundamental point for the success of the network. The application of integration approach in Italy was different from one region to another, often presenting a framework where institutional actors collaborate with environmental non-governmental organizations and other groups. These stakeholders influence the Natura 2000 implementation with different strategies, increasing the complexity and unpredictability of the policy outcomes. The objective of this study is to analyse stakeholders' opinions concerning the coexistence of different human activities in the Italian Natura 2000 sites. In order to achieve this objective a semi-structured questionnaire was administered by email to 146 stakeholders. 56 stakeholders filled in the questionnaire and the collected data were statistically processed. The stakeholders assessed the importance of five human activities (nature conservation, environmental education, recreational activities, agricultural activities and forestry activities) in Natura 2000 sites through a pairwise comparison and identified the main opportunities and obstacles of the network. The results show that the most relevant activities are nature conservation and environmental education according to stakeholders' opinions.

Post-glacial beach-rocks of the North-East Sardinia,Alpine and Mediterranean Quaternary,,22797327 (ISSN),,https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84981517057&partnerID=40&md5=e7a3bbcdd2cc4bef1eceef76ba776510,"As a part of multidisciplinary research studies aimed at the reconstruction of the modalities and mechanisms of Mediterranean sea level rise in the past 20,000 years, we believe it is useful to concentrate our attention on the contribution that may derive from the study of beach-rocks. This work represents a critical re-examination of the existing information framework, both published and unpublished, having the objective of contributing to integrate the curve of post-glacial sea level rise, as regard the centre-western Mediterranean Sea. The complicated issue of the use of beack-rocks as marine palaeo-levels has reduced their role, in the past years, in reconstructing the curves of eustatic rise; despite the wide scientific production on submerged beack-rocks in the Mediterranean. Numerous studies and surveys on beack-rock in the Sardinian continental shelf have found several evidences of stationary levels of the Holocene sea, both in the deposition facies, beach rocks and relict littoral sediments, and in the erosion fades, abrasion surfaces and ledges cutting the substrate. From the recent bibliography it can be deduced that during the Holocene the whole Island reached remarkable tectonic stability; the marine deposits related to the Middle and Upper Pleistocene lie at consistent and correlate levels except for a few rare sites where mild vertical blocks are observed . On one hand, this may justify the particularly conservative characters of the Sardinian continental shelf compared to the shorelines, whilst on the other one it qualifies Sardinia as a key area in redrawing the post-glacial sea rise in the western Mediterranean. In the Italian seas, the first shorelines related to the Versilian transgression and, among these, the relict submerged sandbanks at - 40 m in the Golfo di Palmas (south-western Sardinia) were found by Segre in 1969. Subsequently, after surveying the beach-rock at - 70 m in the Straits of Bonifacio a complex system of perfectly preserved submerged shorelines along the Sardinian north-eastern continental shelf (between - 55 and -145 m) was observed. This evidence of the variation of the deglacial sea level therefore enables the bypass between Sardinia and Corsica up to the present level (-75m) to be recognised. The economic significance of the relict littoral sediments as heavy minerals-bearing sediments has increased the interest of researchers (involved in the ""Oceanografia e Fondi Marini - Risorse Minerarie - Placers"" Project of C.N.R.) on submerged shorelines- The geophysical prospecting techniques were refined, the first cartographic experiences were accomplished for the southwestern Sardinia and the first underwater samplings of a beach-rock was collected at -33 m offshore Cala Liberotto. The wide geophysical prospecting and sampling on the entire continental shelf have completed the present knowledge on the geographical and bathy-metric distribution of the beack-rocks, and have suggested the eastern part of the shelf as more conserving than the western one. The set of data was represented in the first geomorphological-cartographic synthesis of the entire Sardinian continental shelf. The early results obtained with in the mining Project stimulated a specific research activity along the submerged shorelines. The detailed cartography methods, the underwater prospecting techniques and the procedures of sedimentoiogical and mineralogical analysis were developed on the perfectly preserved beach-rock in the sample area of Fontanamare in south-western coast. The contribution of the underwater survey in supplementing the geophysical data was of a great impulse to geomorphologic cartography of the sea bottoms. Consequently, a detailed mapping of beack-rocks in the south-eastern continental shelf at -40 and -55 m, in the Ria of Arzachena (north-eastern sector) at -2 and -10, in the Gulf of Asinara at -45 m, and in the Straits of Bonifacio at -30m was performed. Littoral-transitional depositional complexes characterised by beack-rocks in different arrangements have been observed: the Gulf of Cagliari at -25, -40, -55 m; the northern sector of the Gulf of Orosei at - 35, -40 e -55 m; and the Canale di San Pietro at -5 m. At the same time, on the western Sardinian continental platform, relict sedimentary bodies related to the Versilian transgression have been studied and their geometries and sedimentoiogical aspects analysed. The lack of information on the occurrence of beack-rocks on the -10 to 30 m bathy-metric range in the Sardinian seas seems to depend on the masking of the outcrops by Posidonia oceanica. A part of the surveys aimed at establishing Marine Reserves; detailed mapping of the marine phanerogam meadows shows beack-rocks discontinuous outcropping out of vegetable bioconstructions in the Bay of Tavolara at -5, -25 28 m, in the area of Capo Carbonara and in Sinis - Gulf of Oristano. This paper shows the methodological evolution of the geophysical surveys by Side Scan Sonar and Sub-bottom profiler; the scuba diving and remote operate vehicle survey; the analysis of sediments and cements: mineralogical and geochemical - S.E.M. Both classic and accelerator mass spectrometry A.M.S. isotopie C14 methodology was particular emphasised. The research proceeded uninterruptedly increasing the detail on both geomorphological s.s and geochemical-sedimentological aspects. Further geochronologi-cal studies have shown the comparison between radiometric data globally obtained on the beack-rocks. From a palaeodimatic and palaeoenvironmental point of view, it has been possible to read the isotopie ratios of both Oxygen and Carbon in the beach-rock cements of north-eastern Sardinia and southern Corsica. By these data results, it has been possible to draw the first curve of the Holocenic rise based on the beach-rock data only. From the analysis of the cements, supported by the new elements from the A.M.S. radiometric age of the beack-rock of Cala Liberotto (- 33 m), it has been possible to justify the curve of rise of the post Late Glacial Maximum sea. Moreover, the depositional characters and the facies of cement precipitation were better define. In particular, the impor-tance of the bacterial activity in the initial percipitation of Mg-calcite was recognised. The notable scientific interest of these outcrops in reconstructing the Holocene eustatic curve is related to the possibility of correlating the data obtained in these studies with those from the south-eastern basin of the Mediterranean. The regional scale view of the problem would thus lead to a reliable reconstruction of the palaeogeography of the Holocene sea of the central-western area of the Mediterranean Sea. The most significant limiting factors in using the beach rock, data in the sea-level rise curve have proved to be the discontinuity of the outcrops, the often bad condition of conservation, genetic characteristics (that are not always clear), the distribution in continental shelves of different origin and often characterised by significant depositional processes or their location in neotectonically active areas, and the difficulty in dating palaeo-beach sediments (apart from a few particular cases). These factors require: - A detailed analysis of the coastal and shelf geomorphological context; - Great care in dating both the cements, which can bear different mineralogical, genetical, chronological and diagenetic features, and the bioclasts, which could be subjected to a policyclical elaboration. However, to date, the data belonging to beack-rocks do not allow us to determine the paleo sea level with a detail grater than 5 m.",,19-39,,1,11,,Alp. Mediterr.

Thus, the present study aimed to determine the zoning of peanuts' climatic risk by estimating the water requirement satisfaction index (WRSI) for the crop in Brazil. We used a historical series of data on average air temperature and rainfall between 1980 and 2016. Reference evapotranspiration was estimated using the method of Thornthwaite, and we subsequently calculated crop evapotranspiration and maximum evapotranspiration. Water balances for all stations were calculated using the method of Thornthwaite and Mather, with an available water capacity in the soil of 15, 30 and 45 mm. The definitions of suitable, unfit and restricted areas and the planting season were performed using the WRSI. RESULTS: Brazil has low climatic risk areas for growing peanuts throughout the year, except for winter. The country reveals that 88.19%, 97.93%, 99.16% and 39.25% of its area is suitable for planting peanuts on planting dates in spring, summer, autumn and winter, respectively. CONCLUSION: Brazil has a large part of the areas favorable to the planting of peanuts. The maximum availability of soil water at a depth of 15, 30 and 45 mm does not influence regions with respect to peanut growing in Brazil. The states of Piauí, Ceará and Bahia are the most unsuitable on the winter planting date, with an average WRSI of 0.22. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry",,5002-5015,,12,101,,J.

The objective of this work was to analyze the environmental impact of rice growing in REBIO Mato Grande through pollutant markers in the environment and the benthic macroinvertebrate community in three points of the Arroio Moreira, as it is the one that most contributes to water volume. The indicator for the release of domestic effluents (linear sulfonated alkylbenzene – LAS) was not found in the collection stations analyzed, indicating that the impacts on aquatic fauna do not have a significant contribution from domestic activities. On the other hand, the glyphosate agricultural activity marker was found at one of the points (0.08 mg.L-1) being above the maximum allowed value (0.065 mg.L-1) by CONAMA Resolution No. 357/2005. There was a decrease in all biological metrics analyzed (Wealth, Shannon-Wiener diversity index and Abundance) and changes in abiotic parameters such as dissolved oxygen, conductivity, turbidity, and total dissolved solids, allowing us to conclude that rice farming contributes significantly to the disturbance of the analyzed environment. © 2022 ABES - Associacao Brasileira de Engenharia Sanitaria e Ambiental.

It has been listed as a threatened species because of its restricted geographic range, habitat loss and fragmentation, and declining populations. The major objectives of this study were to estimate its potential geographic distribution, the climatic conditions across its distributional range, and to identify suitable areas and potential species strongholds. We developed a model of habitat suitability for the maned sloth using two methods, Maxent and Mahalanobis Distance, based on 42 occurrence points. We evaluated environmental variable importance and the predictive ability of the generated distribution models. Our results suggest that the species distribution could be strongly influenced by environmental factors, mainly temperature seasonality. The modeled distribution of the maned sloth included known areas of occurrence in the Atlantic Forest (Sergipe, Bahia, Espýrito Santo, and Rio de Janeiro), but did not match the observed distributional gaps in northern Rio de Janeiro, northern Espýrito Santo or southern Bahia. Rather, the model showed that these areas are climatically suitable for the maned sloth, and thus suggests that factors other than climate might be responsible for the absence of species. Suitable areas for maned sloth were located mainly in the mountainous region of central Rio de Janeiro throughout Espýrito Santo and to the coastal region of southern Bahia. We indicate 17 stronghold areas and recommended survey areas for the maned sloth. In addition, we highlight specific areas for conservation, including the current network protected areas. Our results can be applied for novel surveys and discovery of unknown populations, and help the selection of priority areas for management and conservation planning, especially of rare and relatively cryptic species directed associated with forested habitats. © 2014 Moreira et al.",,,,10,9,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,animal; animal dispersal; Animal Distribution; Animals; area under the curve; Article; Atlantic forest; Brazil; climate; endemic species; environmental factor; evolutionary algorithm; forest; Forests; geographic distribution; Mahalanobis Distance; maned sloth; Maxent method; mountaineering; nonhuman; prediction; receiver operating characteristic; seasonal variation; sloth; sloths; Sloths; species conservation; species distribution; species habitat; temperature,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

For this, a systematic review was carried out that compiled existing evidence from different sources of information on this topic. As a result, it was found that Brazil has land and marine coverage by PA higher than that established in Aichi Target 11 (17% and 10%, respectively). However, other elements such as ecological representation, protection of Key Biodiversity Areas and ecosystem services, effective and equitable management, and PA connectivity and integration with broader landscapes, are still far from being fully achieved. As a result, Brazil has not been able to meet Target 11 in its entirety, as has none of the signatory countries of this agreement. The lack of precise indicators, as well as systematized and updated data on PAs, especially Permanent Preservation Areas, Legal Reserves and Indigenous Lands, was a limitation of the research and hindered the assessment of the real national performance. This study is important because it gathers diffused information that already exists, in order to create a robust and updated dataset to present and analyze the Brazilian scenario in view of this agreement, identifying the advances achieved and the challenges that still need to be overcome by the country in relation to their PA. © 2023 Centro Universitario de Brasilia.

The density of plastic debris on beaches located in transitional areas was 7–10-fold greater than that on beaches in estuarine and oceanic areas. Fragments were considered the most abundant form of plastic debris on all the beaches.

The draining works of these areas, which have occurred in the last century, has led to a loss of interest for the marshes, which were considered lost from the naturalistic point of view. Thus, the scientific studies ceased and, in particular, stopped the recording of avifauna data. In more recent times, the temporary breakdown of pumping stations, that occurred from 2008 to 2010, has enabled the marshes to take back a natural hydrological regime for a period of a few years, short but enough to make habitats of community interest and for an extremely important birdlife to reappear. Therefore, a monitoring activity has been started, allowing collecting in systematic way information on species present between 2010 and 2016. The aim of this work is to make known the situation regarding the presence of birds in recent years and compare it with what is available from historical data and to highlight its value, despite the anthropic pressure to which the area is subject.

However, despite the fact that reptiles and amphibians have the highest threat status of all terrestrial vertebrates, these species are often under-represented in conservation planning. The Kingdom of Morocco possesses the richest and most varied herpetofauna in the Maghreb and the western Mediterranean, and is characterized by high species richness, endemism and number of European relict species. Despite the fact that Moroccan reptiles and amphibians have been the subject of numerous studies by a large number of international herpetologists since the beginning of the 20th century, few or none of these concerned their conservation. This study had three main objectives: (1) to identify those areas that harbour the highest species richness; (2) to evaluate the existing and proposed future 'important biological and ecological sites' (SIBES) conservation area network (CAN) with respect to their ability to protect the herpetofauna adequately; and (3) to identify priority areas into which the existing protected areas can be augmented. We used maximum-entropy species distribution modelling to run distribution models for 11 amphibian and 86 reptile species (27.6% endemics and 12.4% threatened) for which we had 2,170 single geographic records. A total of 97 models were used to create a richness map of the Moroccan herpetofauna and thereby detect both areas of high species richness and the distribution patterns of individual species. This map was subsequently used as a basis for performance evaluation of the CAN and area prioritization using the ConsNet conservation planning software initialized by ""Rarity"" first, while using representation targets of 5% and 10%. Additionally, the proposed future Moroccan CAN (SIBES) was evaluated in terms of its overlay and proximity with ConsNet solutions using visual interpretation and distance measurements in a GIS. Our results show that Moroccan herpetofauna is poorly protected under the existing and future CAN. Prioritization of areas shows that a major increase in conservation area is required to guarantee the persistence of individual herpetofauna species even with a global minimum representation target of only 10%. An increase of the existing CAN is especially needed along parts of the Atlantic coast, in the north-western Mediterranean region, on the north-eastern Moroccan coast, as well as in several areas in the Sahara, notably vast proportions of the Vallée du Haut and Bas Drâa. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,89-118,,1,20,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Kluwer Academic Publishers,,,,Amphibia; amphibian; conservation planning; Conservation planning; ConsNet; endemism; GIS; Maxent; maximum entropy analysis; Morocco; performance assessment; prioritization; protected area; reptile; Reptilia; Sahara; Species distribution modelling; species occurrence; species richness; Species richness; twentieth century; Vertebrata,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Increased anthropogenic pressures have led to environmental impacts and also intensified competition for space and resources among various socioeconomic sectors. To mitigate these impacts on marine ecosystems and reduce conflicts, management tools and processes such as marine protected areas (MPAs) and maritime spatial planning (MSP) have become more prevalent. Trade-offs are inherent to these, and necessary to meet specific conservation and socioeconomic goals. In response, understanding and managing these trade-offs has become crucial to achieving ocean sustainability. This study performs a bibliometric review to identify the types of trade-offs discussed in the marine literature and examines their operationalization for the conservation and sustainable use of marine resources. The analysis reveals that trade-offs, particularly those between conservation and development, and the interests of specific stakeholders, are most frequently addressed in the trade-off literature and are typically approached through integrative methods.

Understanding the geographic distribution of invasive species in ecoregions and PA is important to support management programs. The aim of our study was to assess the distribution of invasive alien species in ecoregions and PA in Brazil. We used data from the Brazil National Invasive Alien Species Database (The Horus Institute), the geospatial database of terrestrial ecoregions in Brazil and the database of federal and state PA in Brazil (Instituto Socioambiental). We found 367 invasive alien species in the 35 Brazilian ecoregions, 59% of which are present in PA. The highest numbers of IAS occur in the Serra do Mar Coastal Forests, Alto Paraná Atlantic Forests and Araucaria Moist Forests ecoregions. A few PA in the sustainable use class contain the largest numbers of IAS, followed by strict protection areas in the southeast and south of Brazil.

In this context, the phenomenon of metropolitanization has led to the fragmentation of the biome into forests, especially in areas near the coast. Therefore, Geotechnologies emerge as promising tools for the analysis and monitoring of urban forests. Thus, the aim of this study was to propose the estimation and analysis of above-ground forest biomass (AGB) using geotechnologies. The selected sites correspond to Conservation Units Dois Irmăos forest, Curado/Jardim Botânico forest, and Engenho Uchôa forest, located in the municipality of Recife, Pernambuco. To carry out this investigation, a LiDAR point cloud was acquired from the Recife City Hall. Dendrometry was performed on 31 tree individuals to estimate biomass. Using the point cloud, a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) and a Digital Canopy Model (DCM) were constructed. Subsequently, a correlation was established between the AGB estimated from LiDAR and the tree height measured on the digital model, resulting in a Pearson coefficient of 0.8. Based on these results, an equation was structured to estimate the total forest biomass, using DCM as the variable. The estimated total forest biomass for Dois Irmăos forest was 169.9 Gg, for Jardim Botânico forest, it was 25.27 Gg, and for Engenho Uchôa forest, it totaled 9.86 Gg. Therefore, the integrated use of Geotechnologies is considered effective for the estimation and monitoring of forest biomass. © 2024, Universidade Federal de Pernambuco.

The book argues that Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are not only a critical tool for protecting marine biodiversity in a changing climate, but they also play an important role at the intersection of geopolitics and environmental justice, while providing a case study of environmental governance at the science-policy interface. The book takes an interdisciplinary and critical approach, building on the author’s two decades of experience working in this field. Geopolitically, it explores the ways in which MPAs provide footprints for influence and access to resources far from home for nations with overseas territories. MPAs also raise important issues connected to equity, environmental justice, and social justice, including access to resources and participation in environmental decision-making processes, key aspects for achieving long-term conservation goals. The book also demonstrates how MPAs are a critical lens for understanding how policy makers cope with scientific uncertainty, and the necessity of well-designed and precautionary science advisory processes. While the ecological contribution of MPAs is paramount, social issues and geopolitical considerations are often less obvious in the discourse underpinning MPAs, and the resulting tensions can undermine long-term conservation objectives. By applying the three lenses of geopolitics, environmental justice, and science, this book provides key insights to help the international community move past the 2030 biodiversity targets and beyond, toward a future of meaningful, equitable, and effective conservation approaches. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of biodiversity conservation, marine studies, political geography, environmental governance, and science-policy studies. It will also be of interest to marine conservation governance professionals and policymakers. © 2025 Elizabeth M.

For countries with significant overseas territories, such as the USA, France, and the UK, these remote possessions provide an opportunity to achieve biodiversity conservation objectives over large spatial scales.

Data were collected by mist-netting, line transect surveys, and the MacKinnon list method. A total of 179 species were recorded, of which 45 had not been reported previously for the park, raising the total number of bird species known to occur in this conservation unit to 202. A comparative analysis was used to verify differences between the Săo José plateau and the semi-arid lowlands, as well as the variation between the dry and rainy seasons.

Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 95, pp. 775-779, ISSN 0749-0208. Coastal tourism is the most important segment of this economic sector, given that a majority of tourists tend to prefer coastal destinations. The sandy beaches of the Brazilian Amazon coast, with their well-preserved environments distributed along 3900 km of coastline, have considerable potential for tourism, in particular, ecotourism. The aim of this study was to evaluate of the tourism scenario of three Amazon beaches for the identification of the strengths and weaknesses of this environment, and the investigation of the principal external factors (legislation, economics, and environmental conditioners) that influence local tourism. Data on hydrological and socioeconomic variables were collected and used as input for a SWOT matrix to determine the principal strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats existing for these beaches. The principal opportunities are derived from the legislation, including the State Coastal Management Plan, the Beachfront Project, and the management plans of the local conservation units. The threats are maximized by the inadequate application of the legal management mechanisms, which has resulted in beaches with no public sanitation, water treatment, the unregulated occupation of land, low levels of education, environmental degradation, and a loss of biodiversity. The principal strength for the management of the Amazonian beaches is the fact that these sites are in the public domain, which allows the government to implement wide-ranging management strategies based on the systematic evaluation of parameters. The weaknesses of the beaches identified in the present study included the lack of public sanitation, high concentrations of visitors, and inadequate beach security services. Overall, the analysis of the SWOT matrix indicated that the adoption of the Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) principles would provide an excellent opportunity for the changes necessary to resolve the environmental problems observed on the study beaches. This would help to establish a more inclusive, participative, and proactive approach to the management of the local beach environments. © Coastal Education and Research Foundation, Inc. 2020.",,775-779,,sp1,95,,J.

In order to achieve this, participatory mapping has been used as a method to obtain spatial data from artisanal ishermen, promoting more participatory decision-making processes. In the region of Peruíbe, there are a range of management instruments that regulates the spatial distribution and establish ishing closure areas for this activity. In order to understand how the gill net artisanal isheries, afect the existing closure areas in this region, interviews with local ishermen were conducted, on which participatory mapping exercises were performed. Therefore, it was possible to estimate the spatial distribution of the gill net isheries in this region. There were points where densiication of ishermen was identiied and it was found that these points were located nearby the MPAs, therefore creating areas of incongruities between the conservation objectives established by the MPAs and the ishing activity. Thus, a better understanding of the reasons why the ishermen choose certain areas for ishing, as well as how they will behave in case of closure of existing ishing areas are necessary to achieve an efective management for the MAPs. © 2018 Universidade Federal do Parana.All Rights Reserved.",,164-182,,,44,,Desenvolv.

Delile forms meadows of great ecological importance that are presently under elevated anthropogenic pressures. In this study, a model of citizens’ observatory has been translated into practice to observe and monitor the health status of the Site of Community Importance, the Posidonia oceanica meadow named San Vito-Barletta extending along the coast of Apulia region in the Italian Southern Adriatic Sea. This meadow has been lately classified as “disturbed”. With the goal of gathering relevant data for the management and conservation of this meadow, we conducted underwater visual census of the epiphytes on P. oceanica leaves. Complementarily, population genetics analysis using highly variable microsatellites markers was carried out. Two campaigns of surveys in three different stations (Molfetta, Giovinazzo and Mola di Bari) revealed that the distribution of the epiphytic communities was not uniform among the meadow. In Molfetta station, the leaf-epiphytes biomass was visibly more abundant with increased filamentous epiphytes. The genetic analysis revealed that the San Vito-Barletta meadow shows an excess of heterozygosity and demonstrated the existence of at least two subpopulations. Since the sampling areas are situated along the coasts of different Apulian cities, this situation may reflect the diverse anthropogenic factors that vary from city to city. Therefore, as local citizens’ observatory, we now have to undertake the necessary actions to raise general public awareness of the need of this species protection at Apulian level and to promote good conservation practices before the meadow regresses irreversibly. © 2020 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,56,,J.

Reintroduction efforts at Majete Wildlife Reserve, Malawi, have resulted in rapid population increases, but little is known about how such populations resemble natural populations socially or behaviourally, and what those attributes may reveal about restoration success. Incorporating behavioural knowledge into conservation efforts is an important tool for managing the effects of habitat fragmentation and resource competition. The aim of this study was to quantify the daylight time budget of both family and bachelor bands of reintroduced plains zebra to determine if such behaviours resembled those found in natural populations, and to provide insights into seasonal behavioural patterns that could inform management strategies. We found that feeding occupied the largest percentage (mean = 41.8 % ± 2.36) of family band daylight time budgets, followed by resting (18.5 % ± 2.21), locomotion (10.9 % ± 1.05), vigilance (7.5 % ± 0.92), maintenance (2.7 % ± 0.92) and social behaviour (1.4 % ± 0.33). Bachelor bands spent the majority of their daylight time being vigilant (27.0 % ± 2.72), followed by locomotion (21.0 % ± 2.05), feeding (18.4 % ± 2.32), resting (15.4 % ± 2.85), maintenance (6.4 % ± 1.86) and social behaviour (2.4 % ± 0.68). The time budgets of zebra in this restored population are generally congruent with those reported in natural populations of plains zebra. Seasonal variation in time spent feeding and resting, locomotion, and change in body condition, however, suggest that dry season resources may negatively impact zebra in the miombo savannah woodlands. These results provide important insights into resource implications for zebra in an ecological system with many large ungulate species that compete for forage, and may assist managers with resource management strategies. © 2020",,,,,224,,Appl.

Protected areas (PAs) may not sufficiently protect populations of species undergoing distributional shifts, necessitating that we evaluate existing PAs and identify areas for future protection to conserve biodiversity across regional and temporal scales. Coastal waterbirds are important indicators of marine ecosystem health, representing mobile, long-lived, higher trophic-level consumers. Using a 20-year citizen science dataset (1999-2019) with a before-after control-intervention sampling framework for habitat protection, we applied dynamic occupancy models to assess winter occupancy trends along the Pacific coast of Canada. Specifically, we sought to understand potential drivers of regional declines, spatial commonalities among guilds, and changes in habitat use before and after PA designation, as well as between PAs and non-PAs. Occupancy trends varied regionally, with greater declines in the south compared to the north. Regional differences underlined potential range shifts, particularly for species with traits linked to temperature tolerance, movement, and high productivity foraging, as cold-tolerant, migratory benthivores and piscivores wintered farther north relative to 20 years ago or retreated to cold-water fjords. While 21 of 57 (36.8%) species responded positively to PA designation (before-after), greater occupancy declines tended to occur in PAs established pre-1999 relative to non-PAs (control-intervention). Since PAs are currently concentrated in the south, negative associations were most apparent for species retreating northward, but existing PAs may have a stabilizing or transitory effect on southern wintering species shifting into the region from farther south. We emphasize that conservation strategies must balance persistence of current communities with preserving the climate-adapted biodiversity of tomorrow by accounting for community-level effects of species moving into and out of existing PAs. Incorporating range shifts into PA planning by predicting distributional changes will allow conservation practitioners to identify priority habitats, such as cold-water refugia, for persistent wildlife communities. Le changement climatique et les facteurs de stress anthropiques redistribuent les especes et modifient la composition des communautes a l'echelle mondiale. Les zones protegees (ZP) ne protegent peut-etre pas suffisamment les populations d'especes qui subissent des changements de repartition, ce qui nous oblige a evaluer les ZP existantes et a identifier les zones a proteger a l'avenir pour conserver la biodiversite a l'echelle regionale et temporelle. Les oiseaux cotiers sont des indicateurs importants de la sante des ecosystemes marins, car ils representent des consommateurs mobiles, ont une longue duree de vie et represente le niveau trophique superieur. En utilisant un ensemble de donnees de science participative sur 20 ans (1999-2019) avec un echantillonnage avant-apres controle-intervention (AACI) pour la protection de l'habitat, nous avons applique des modeles d'occupation dynamiques pour evaluer les tendances de l'occupation hivernale le long de la cote pacifique du Canada. Plus precisement, nous avons cherche a comprendre les moteurs potentiels des declins regionaux, les points communs spatiaux entre les guildes et les changements dans l'utilisation de l'habitat avant et apres la designation de le ZP, ainsi qu'entre les ZP et les non-ZP. Les tendances en matiere d'occupation varient d'une region a l'autre, avec des declins plus importants dans le sud que dans le nord. Les differences regionales soulignent les deplacements potentiels de l'aire de repartition, en particulier pour les especes dont les caracteristiques sont liees a la tolerance a la temperature, aux deplacements et a la recherche de nourriture a rendement eleve, car les benthivores et les piscivores migrateurs tolerants au froid ont hiverne plus au nord qu'il y a 20 ans ou se sont retires dans les fjords aux eaux froides. Alors que 21 des 57 (36,8 %) especes ont reagi positivement a la designation des aires protegees (avant-apres), les baisses d'occupation ont eu tendance a etre plus importantes dans les aires protegees creees avant 1999 que dans les aires non protegees (controle-intervention). Comme les aires protegees sont actuellement concentrees dans le sud, les associations negatives etaient plus evidentes pour les especes qui se retirent vers le nord, mais les aires protegees existantes peuvent avoir un effet stabilisateur ou transitoire sur les especes hivernant dans le sud qui se deplacent dans la region a partir d'une region plus au sud. Nous soulignons que les strategies de conservation doivent trouver un equilibre entre la persistance des communautes actuelles et la preservation de la biodiversite adaptee au climat de demain, en tenant compte des effets au niveau des communautes des especes qui entrent dans les aires protegees existantes ou qui en sortent. L'integration des changements d'aire de repartition dans la planification des aires protegees en predisant les changements de distribution permettra aux praticiens de la conservation d'identifier les habitats prioritaires, tels que les refuges d'eau froide, pour les communautes d'especes sauvages persistantes. We evaluated 20-year occupancy trends of coastal waterbirds wintering inside and outside protected areas (PAs) along Canada's Pacific coast. Occupancy declines were the greatest in older PAs concentrated at lower latitudes, with cold-tolerant, migratory benthivores and piscivores shifting farther north or to cold-water fjords. However, established PAs may have a stabilizing or transitional effect on communities as species shift into the region from farther south. Effective conservation must balance persistence of current communities with preserving future climate-adapted communities by managing for species moving into and out of existing PAs, as well as targeting future priority areas, such as cold-water refugia.image",,,,2,30,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001157906100001,,,,,,,area-based conservation; before-after control-intervention; BIODIVERSITY; BIRD ABUNDANCE; CALIFORNIA CURRENT SYSTEM; citizen science; climate change; CLIMATE-CHANGE; cold-water refugia; community ecology; CONSERVATION; dynamic occupancy model; IMPACTS; MARINE; OCEAN; range shift; RANGE SHIFTS; SITE-OCCUPANCY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Wherein, advanced satellite remote sensing approach to determine and quantify the thermal stress on corals can assist as an alternative and convenient tool for reef monitoring programs.

Coral bleaching indices like Bleaching Threshold (BT), Positive Anomaly (PA), and Degree Heating Weeks (DHW) were calculated. Ground-truthing revealed that detected thermal stress from satellite-derived Sea Surface Temperature (SST) data over this region well corroborate with the mass coral bleaching events, and found reliable for detecting coral bleaching episodes in the marginalized turbid coral habitats.

Among these, is landscape transformation, such as conversion of natural grassland to plantation forestry, impacting both terrestrial and freshwater biodiversity. Functional diversity measures provide substantial information on current and emerging impacts on biological communities, and aid conservation decisions relative to anthropogenic impacts. We determined (1) environmental similarities among 10 freshwater biotope types; (2) whether freshwater biotopes in conservation corridor networks support equal levels of functional richness and divergence compared with an extensive neighbouring protected area; (3) whether certain biotopes are more important for maintaining functional richness and divergence than others; and (4) whether associations between traits and biotope types could be identified. Location: The northeastern coastal region of South Africa. Methods: Using dragonflies as model organisms, and data from 140 freshwater lotic and lentic sites, we investigated the distribution of dragonfly traits across a plantation forestry-natural grassland landscape mosaic with a range of biotope types. Results: Lake sites were different in their environmental conditions compared with the other biotopes. Environmental conditions were variable among the other biotope types and were difficult to distinguish. Freshwater biotopes in the conservation corridors supported equal levels of functional richness and divergence compared with those in the protected area. Overall, dragonfly functional richness and divergence were low at lake sites and wallows, while all other biotopes supported high levels of functional richness and divergence. Trait associations were complex across the waterscape and driven by habitat selection, flight behaviour and ecological sensitivity. Main Conclusions: Maintaining a mosaic of small lentic and lotic habitats would best support dragonfly conservation in this transformed landscape. A combination of biotopes offers a wide range of environmental conditions essential for conserving the full range of dragonfly traits and species across the region. © 2024 The Author(s).

Fast production of marine habitat maps promotes the use of habitat-only conservation plans, where a given percentage of the area of each habitat is set as conservation objectives. However, marine reserves can impact access to fishing grounds and generate opportunity costs for fishers that need to be minimized. In New Caledonia (Southwest Pacific), we used fine-scale fishery catch maps to define nineteen opportunity costs layers (expressed as biomass catch loss) considering i) total catches, ii) target fish families, iii) local marine tenure, and iv) gear type. The expected lower impacts on fishery catch when using the different cost constraints were ranked according to effectiveness in decreasing the costs generated by the habitat-only scenarios. The exercise was done for two habitat maps with different thematic richness. In most cases, habitat conservation objectives remained achievable, but effectiveness varied widely between scenarios and between habitat maps. The results provide practical guidelines for coral reef conservation and management. Habitat-only scenarios can be used to initiate conservation projects with stakeholders but the costs induced by such scenarios can be lowered by up to 50-60% when detailed exhaustive fishery data are used. When using partial data, the gain would be only in the 15-25% range.

This work aimed to locate priority sites for the management of Holothuria scabra and Stichopus horrens in the western central Philippines. A passive larval dispersal model was run under four monsoonal regimes (Northeast monsoon, dry-transition, Southwest monsoon, and early Northeast monsoon), and the results subjected to the Infomap network detection algorithm. Three clusters of closely related geographical nodes were identified [southeastern Palawan (Group I), western Panay and eastern Mindoro (Group II), and northern and western Palawan with western Mindoro (Group III)]. Remotely sensed habitat data were used to parameterize the degree of connectivity observed among sites (H. scabra spawning and settlement requires the presence of seagrass and mangrove, while S. horrens requires corals and seagrass). Local retention, self-recruitment, settlement success and sink diversity were then calculated for each node with suitable habitat. The locations were ranked according to each metric and those with higher larval export rates, a higher diversity of larval sources and a high degree of successful larval contribution to other sites were deemed crucial for the management of wild populations. Sixteen high-priority sites were identified, distributed mainly along northern Palawan and western Panay. Six sites were common for both species at different seasons, and no single location fulfilled all stated criteria across the four seasons and both sea cucumber species considered. The priority sites for management could serve as broodstock selection and juvenile restocking areas for aquaculture production clusters, which when properly implemented, could lead to an increase in sea cucumber production and contribute to natural populations. On a broader scale, the designation of closely related clusters and incorporation of habitat requirements to dispersal data provided critical input for the delineation of ecologically meaningful management units for sea cucumbers within the region.",,,,,7,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000612356500001,,,,,,,BECHE-DE-MER; biophysical modeling; CONNECTIVITY; CONSERVATION; ecosystem-based management; habitat-based connectivity; Holothuria scabra; HOLOTHURIA-SCABRA; Infomap; OCEANOGRAPHY; PALAWAN; PATTERNS; POPULATION-DYNAMICS; PROTECTED AREA NETWORKS; REEF; sea cucumber aquaculture; Stichopus horrens,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Tropical Asia encompasses several biodiversity hotspots, is the largest reservoir of mammalian diversity on earth, and has already experienced the extinction of several mammal species either regionally or locally. Global climate change could become a significant driver of species extinction, either directly or synergistically with other factors, such as habitat loss, agricultural expansion, overexploitation, and land use change. Despite the variability of climatic regimes across tropical Asia, the potential impacts of climate change on continental-scale distributions of mammals have not been examined. To address this issue, we developed habitat suitability models for four threatened large mammals (Ursus thibetanus, Elephas maximus, Hoolock hoolock, and Panthera tigris tigris), across their entire distributions in Asia. We used presence-only distribution records and nine bioclimatic and environmental variables and built species-specific habitat suitability models using a maximum entropy algorithm (MaxEnt). We used a moderate and an extreme climate scenario (RCP6.0 and RCP8.5) and three time steps: current, 2050, and 2070. Our results suggest that changes in annual precipitation, annual mean temperature, precipitation, and temperature seasonality could reduce suitable habitat for these mammals and therefore increase their extinction risks. However, several patches of stable habitat are projected to persist through the late twenty-first century, and these climate change refugia areas can be managed as an important strategy for conservation of the mammal species and the maintenance of biodiversity in the face of ongoing climate change. In this context, we recommend the following steps for the conservation of global mammal populations: (i) define the spatial extent (local, regional, or continental scale) of the target mammals, (ii) identify and prioritize climate change refugial areas following ecological niche models or other methods based on biological data, and (iii) implement management actions by analyzing current management tools and the strategies required (e.g., habitat restoration or assisted migration for prioritized species) to achieve long-term conservation goals. © 2018, Springer Science+Business Media B.V., part of Springer Nature.",,259-280,,2,24,,Mitigation Adapt.

However, it is unknown to what extent the overall connectivity of these flyways may be threatened by ongoing habitat loss and degradation. Here, we contrasted the wetland connectivity along these four flyways, applying graph-theoretic connectivity metrics on an intercontinental scale. We also explored for which flyway connectivity is most at risk. We then identified the most important wetlands by their contribution to connectivity in each flyway. Location: Western Palearctic, Afrotropics. Methods: Based on high-resolution wetland maps, we calculated directional probabilistic connectivity metrics. Estimates of overall connectivity of each flyway were obtained, as well as the relative importance of wetlands, for birds with different migration strategies: short-distance hoppers and long-distance jumpers. Results: The East-Atlantic flyway and Eastern Mediterranean flyway had higher overall functional connectivity than the two central routes, reflecting the larger barrier represented by the Mediterranean Sea and Sahara Desert. Fewer than 5% of all wetlands supported more than 70% of the total connectivity of the network in each flyway, regardless of the considered migration strategy. These wetlands were either large, strategically positioned or both. Removing non-protected wetlands from the analysis showed that the connectivity of some flyways could be jeopardized and that the East-Atlantic and Eastern Mediterranean flyway may be most vulnerable to additional habitat loss. Main conclusions: Our results illustrate (i) the major contribution of unprotected wetlands to flyway connectivity, (ii) the importance of integrating migration ecology into site-based connectivity analyses and (iii) the utility of graph-based connectivity metrics to inform conservation prioritization under present and future scenarios. © 2022 The Authors.

Excellent for data-poor spatial management but hard to use: Marine resource managers and scientists often advocate spatial approaches to manage data-poor species. Existing spatial prediction and management techniques are either insufficiently robust, struggle with sparse input data, or make suboptimal use of multiple explanatory variables. Boosted Regression Trees feature excellent performance and are well suited to modelling the distribution of data-limited species, but are extremely complicated and time-consuming to learn and use, hindering access for a wide potential user base and therefore limiting uptake and usage. BRTs automated and simplified for accessible general use with rich feature set: We have built a software suite in R which integrates pre-existing functions with new tailor-made functions to automate the processing and predictive mapping of species abundance data: by automating and greatly simplifying Boosted Regression Tree spatial modelling, the gbm.auto R package suite makes this powerful statistical modelling technique more accessible to potential users in the ecological and modelling communities. The package and its documentation allow the user to generate maps of predicted abundance, visualise the representativeness of those abundance maps and to plot the relative influence of explanatory variables and their relationship to the response variables. Databases of the processed model objects and a report explaining all the steps taken within the model are also generated. The package includes a previously unavailable Decision Support Tool which combines estimated escapement biomass (the percentage of an exploited population which must be retained each year to conserve it) with the predicted abundance maps to generate maps showing the location and size of habitat that should be protected to conserve the target stocks (candidate MPAs), based on stakeholder priorities, such as the minimisation of fishing effort displacement. Gbm.auto for management in various settings: By bridging the gap between advanced statistical methods for species distribution modelling and conservation science, management and policy, these tools can allow improved spatial abundance predictions, and therefore better management, decision-making, and conservation. Although this package was built to support spatial management of a data-limited marine elasmobranch fishery, it should be equally applicable to spatial abundance modelling, area protection, and stakeholder engagement in various scenarios. © 2017 Dedman et al.

We monitored 72 tern nests at 4 colonies and observed them during standardized monitoring sessions to record predation attacks on the tern nests. We ran generalized linear models to determine the factors which impact breeding success (hatching and fledging success). Hatching success was high across the 4 colonies with 69% of the eggs hatching, whereas fledging success was low with only 1 colony producing 14 fledglings while all other colonies had zero fledglings surviving (12% total fledging success). Regarding nest-site selection, our results demonstrate that a greater proportion of vegetation cover increases breeding success, likely through better nest concealment against predators. Nests in smaller colonies with a higher nest density and located closer to the colony center also produced more hatchlings and fledglings. Most predation likely happened during the chick stage, while our extrapolation predicted that predation accounts for at least 94% of all chick losses, indicating that predator control would aid breeding success of tern colonies in West Finland substantially.",,76-90,,3,101,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001379071300001,,,,,,,ARCTIC TERNS; COMMON TERNS; FOOD; GULL PREDATION; HABITAT SELECTION; HUMAN DISTURBANCE; MARINE BIRD COMMUNITY; POPULATION TRENDS; RISK; STERNA-HIRUNDO,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Yet, many MPAs fail to achieve their management objectives because of shortfalls in understanding the level of legitimacy stakeholders afford to an MPA. Legitimacy refers to the ability of a political action, in this case an MPA, to be perceived as right and just by the various people who are involved, interested, and/or affected by it. Using responses from key stakeholders and managers at two coastal MPAs in Atlantic Canada, this study examined the importance of various factors shaping perceptions of MPA effectiveness and the role of legitimacy in influencing those perceptions. Results indicate that most indicators of legitimacy are important to stakeholders for MPA effectiveness. Specifically, there was consensus across case studies on the importance of community leadership and the establishment of trust in determining the level of legitimacy afforded to MPAs. However key differences in perceptions were evident from stakeholders both between and within groups, and between stakeholders and MPA managers. A novel legitimacy framework and a stakeholder-vetted suite of indicators for legitimacy are presented and recommended for use by MPA managers in assessing the legitimacy of coastal MPAs, before, during and after MPA designation. The results provide an increased understanding of stakeholders’ perceptions of legitimacy, giving managers key additional information needed to establish effective MPAs in the future. © 2017 The Author(s)",,45-57,,,86,,Ecol.

However, researchers and land managers are making increasing use of complementary assessment tools that address higher levels of biological organization, i.e. communities, habitats and ecosystems. Recently, a variety of frameworks have been proposed for assessing the conservation status of communities or ecosystems. Among the various criteria proposed, all the protocols suggest considering (i) spatial aspects (range and area), and (ii) qualitative aspects of specific structures and functions. However, changes to ecological function are difficult to quantify and many protocols end up by using qualitative criteria. The aim of this work was to test the efficacy of some plant community attributes for the detection of vegetation quality in sand dune plant communities. We chose plant community attributes that either help to distinguish a habitat from others (diagnostic components) or play a significant role in habitat function and persistence over time. We used a diachronic approach by contrasting up-to-date vegetation data with data from previous studies carried out within the same areas. Changes in species composition were detected through detrended correspondence analyses (detrended correspondence analyses), Multi-Response Permutation Procedures and Indicator Species Analysis, while structural changes were analyzed by comparing species richness, total species cover, ecological groups of species and growth forms through null models. Ecological groups such as native focal species and aliens, and growth forms proved their efficacy in discriminating between habitat types and in describing their changes over time.

Continued environmental degradation will lead to worsened health outcomes in countries and across generations. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide a framework for viewing the preservation of natural environments and the promotion of health, well-being and health equity as interconnected pursuits. Within the SDG framework the goals of promoting environmental sustainability and human health are unified through attention to the social determinants of health and health equity (SDH/HE). This paper presents findings from a document analysis of all Australian environment sector policies and selected legislation to examine whether and how current approaches support progress toward achieving SDG goals on water, climate change, and marine ecosystems (Goals 6, 13 and 14), and to consider implications for health and health equity. Results: Consideration of a broad range of SDH/HE was evident in the analysed documents. Related collaborations between environment and health sectors were identified, but the bulk of proposed actions on SDH/HE were initiated by the environment sector as part of its core business. Strengths of Australian policy in regard to SDGs 6, 13 and 14 are reflected in recognition of the effects of climate change, a strong cohesive approach to marine park protection, and recognition of the need to protect existing water and sanitation systems from future threats. However, climate change strategies focus predominately on resilience, adaptation and heat related health effects, rather than on more comprehensive mitigation policies. The findings emphasise the importance of strengthened cross-sectoral action to address both the drivers and effects of environmental degradation. A lack of policy coherence between jurisdictions was also evident in several areas, compounded by inadequate national guidance, where vague strategies and non-specific devolution of responsibilities are likely to compromise coordination and accountability. Conclusions: Evidence on planetary health recognises the interconnectedness of environmental and human health and, as such, suggests that ineffective management of climate change and water pose serious risks to both the natural environment and human well-being. To address these risks more effectively, and to achieve the SDGs, our findings indicate that cross-jurisdiction policy coherence and national coordination must be improved. In addition, more action to address global inequities is required, along with more comprehensive approaches to climate change mitigation. © 2019 The Author(s).",,,,1,15,,Globalization Health,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: BioMed Central Ltd.,,,,air pollution; Article; Australia; climate change; Climate change; Climate Change; disaster; ecosystem resilience; environmental policy; Environmental Policy; environmental protection; environmental sanitation; health equity; Health equity; Health Equity; human; Humans; IMPACTS; land use; marine ecosystem; marine environment; national park; Natural environment; Planetary health; population growth; population health; priority journal; public health; quality of life; renewable energy; social determinants of health; Social determinants of health; Social Determinants of Health; social indicator; sustainable development; Sustainable Development; Sustainable development goals; waste; Water; water management; water quality; water supply; Water Supply; Well-being; wellbeing,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Fin whale (Balaenoptera physalus) songs present a unique opportunity to determine interstock differences. Their highly stereotyped interpulse interval has been shown to vary between geographic areas and to remain stable over time in some areas. In this study the structure of songs recorded at two geographically close feeding aggregations in the Gulf of St. Lawrence (GSL) and Gulf of Maine (GoM) was compared. Recordings were made from September 2005 through February 2006 in the GSL and intermittently between January 2006 and September 2007 at two locations in the GoM. 6257 pulse intervals corresponding to 19 GSL and 29 GoM songs were measured to characterize songs from both areas. Classification trees showed that GSL songs differ significantly from those in the GoM. The results are consistent with those derived from other stock structure assessment methodologies, such as chemical signature and photoidentification analysis, suggesting that fin whales in these areas may form separate management stocks.

Several such software programmes have been developed in recent years, each differing in the underlying algorithms used. Here, an investigation is made into whether the choice of software influences the location of priority areas by comparing outputs from Marxan and Zonation, two widely used conservation-planning, decision-support tools. Using biological and socio-economic data from the eastern English Channel, outputs are compared and it is shown that the two software packages identified similar sets of priority areas, although the relatively wide distribution of habitat types and species considered offered much flexibility. Moreover, the similarity increased with increasing spatial constraint, especially when using real-world cost data, suggesting that the choice of cost metric has a greater influence on conservation-planning analyses than the choice of software. However, Marxan generally produced more efficient results and Zonation produced results with greater connectivity, so the most appropriate software package will depend on the overall goals of the MPA planning process. © 2011 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.

Previous conservation planning approaches have been based primarily on biodiversity elements, particularly for Peru, a mega-biodiverse country whose protected areas network need to be expanded. However, achieving this ambitious 30 % target requires careful consideration of numerous ecological and social aspects. To cover these aspects, we present a terrestrial conservation planning approach that integrates biodiversity, ecosystem services, human impact, ecological connectivity and ecoregional representativeness. Our approach has been co-produced with national organisations and NGOs and includes advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods. Our results identify areas of high ecological value to supplement the 17.88 % of areas already protected, to reach 30 %. The integration of these areas could close gaps in the current system, particularly those vital for water related ecosystem services, ecoregional representativity and ecological connectivity. Integrated AI-based optimization methods (i.e., integer linear programming, constraint programming, reference point method) enabled us to obtain optimal, constraint-satisfying and balanced protected areas selected on the basis of integrated variables, and constitute a robust alternative compared with heuristic methods (e.g., Marxan, Zonation) commonly used. This work can be used as a fundamental component of Peru's territorial planning, and paves the way on future research on conservation planning, which should integrate advanced spatial conservation planning methods, ecological and social factors in an even more comprehensive way. © 2024",,,,,299,,Biol.

There is also pressure for the use of marine reserves to play a part in the conservation strategy and management of mobile demersal and pelagic species in the high seas. However, as there is no coastal State, all States are free to use the open seas, and the relative success of MPAs depends on whether or not measures can be imposed on both domestic and foreign vessels. Therefore, the question is whether current international and national legislation is sufficiently effective to implement a solution to aid the success of MPAs or if new legal norms need to be introduced to aid the governance of the high seas. The implementation of a surveillance programme of maritime spaces would help to establish the efficacy of any review of the current legislation. New technical developments being utilized in surveillance have opened up the possibility of exploiting technology with a view to surveying and monitoring planet earth in an objective manner. But technical applications employed to manage risks can themselves be dangerous, as they create new risks for the maritime sector (e.g. espionnage). The maritime domain is a difficult and unpredictable environment in which to operate and, therefore, precludes the assured presence of human beings to perform monitoring tasks. Technology offers us the opportunity to overcome the physical difficulties by putting into practice surveillance using more effective methods.

During the two years of monitoring, all individuals showed a similar migratory pattern in terms of their route, departure time from Chiloé (April) and arrival at their breeding areas in Alaska (May). The birds used the Pacific Flyway for a non-stop flight from Chiloé to southern North America. Henceforth, the birds continued north, stopping at different sites in the United States and Canada to get to Alaska, and in their return to the southern hemisphere. During a complete annual cycle, birds spent a greater part of their time in Chiloé (43%), followed by the duration of their migration south (31%). A greater number of stopover sites (25) were identified in their migratory route to the south. According to the official databases available, a significant proportion (54.3%) of the stopover zones identified for L. haemastica do not have protection figures for conservation.

This ranges from indigenous cultures who first ventured to this remote region close to a thousand years ago to the period of European colonial exploration, as well as the rise of the modern global economy. Voyaging, fishing, and the transportation of commodities across these remote waters left signs of the human history of exploration and exploitation. A deep understanding of this rich history is critical to effectively managing its marine resources, since natural and cultural resources are intrinsically intertwined in many cultures. While most of the Salas y Gómez and Nazca ridges are located in areas beyond national jurisdiction, there has been recent interest to protect this remote region by governments, intergovernmental organizations, and the scientific community. This study provides a synthesis of the maritime heritage and cultural resources of the Salas y Gómez and Nazca ridges in order to guide future conservation, management, scientific, and public outreach efforts in this region. While uninhabited, several communities have profound connections to these remote waters, particularly communities on the islands of Rapa Nui, Juan Fernández, as well as the Peruvian and Chilean continental coasts. These communities in particular should be appropriately engaged during all development phases of the proposed protected area, as these relationships are critical to not only building interest and support, but also to developing conservation strategies that are socially responsible and equitable. While this review summarizes what we know about the maritime heritage and cultural resources of the Salas y Gómez and Nazca ridges, several knowledge gaps remain. Activities addressing those knowledge gaps should be incorporated in the design and eventual management of the proposed protected area, including research, education and outreach aimed at better understanding and appreciating the cultural significance of the region. The Salas y Gómez and Nazca ridges provide a rare opportunity to protect and study a globally significant area on the high seas, while also providing a window into the profound relationships between people and the sea. © 2021 The Authors",,,,,136,,Mar.

First an in-depth analysis of the shell and updated estimation of growth parameters of the intertidal D. trunculus population were performed between January 2014 and July 2015 using two different methods i) thin-layer cross section (TL) (ii) length-frequency distributions (LFD). Von Bertalanffy growth functions provided an asymptotic length of 46 mm (LFD) and 46.7 mm (TL) and growth constants of 0.48 (LFD) and 0.47 yr?1 (TL) in Dońana beach. In addition, several deformities as well as signs of shell repair were observed. Population dynamics analyses through length-frequency distribution clarified the timing of recruitment (February–March and July). The mean annual biomass (BŻ) of intertidal populations of D. trunculus ranged between 3.03 (Dońana) and 3.31 g ash-free dry mass (AFDW) m?2 yr?1 (Isla Canela). Individual production showed the highest value at 27 mm length (0.117 g AFDW m?2 yr?1) and annual production (P) ranged between 3.40 (Dońana) and 4.91 g (Isla Canela), resulting in renewal rate (P/BŻ) values between 1.03 and 1.61, respectively.

Two survey methodologies were used; baited underwater video and underwater visual census. Snapper (Pagrus auratus), the most heavily targeted fish species in the region, showed no difference in abundance or size between the Marine Park and adjacent control areas. When compared to the fully no-take Poor Knights Island Marine Reserve and two other reference areas open to all kinds of fishing (Cape Brett and the Mokohinau Islands), the abundance and size of snapper at the Marine Park were most similar to fished reference areas. In fact, the Marine Park had the lowest mean numbers and sizes of snapper of all areas, no-take or open to fishing. Baited underwater video found that pigfish (Bodianus unimaculatus), leatherjackets (Parika scaber) and trevally (Pseudocaranx dentex) were significantly more common in the Marine Park, than in the adjacent control areas. However, none of these species are heavily targeted by fishers. Underwater visual census found similar results with five species significantly more abundant in the Marine Park and five species more abundant outside the Marine Park. The lack of any recovery by snapper within the Marine Park, despite the exclusion of commercial fishers and restrictions on recreational fishing, indicates that partial closures are ineffective as conservation tools. The data suggest fishing pressure within the Marine Park is at least as high as at other 'fished' sites. © 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.",,119-129,,1,116,,Biol.

Concerning the environment, those values are related to production services, regulating services, cultural services and supporting services. The total value of the environment must take into account all these services. Nevertheless, the various scientific disciplines that influence decision-making are not equally specialised in the evaluation of the various services. Ecologists evaluate the ecosystems' sustainability and analyse the environment capacity to recycle emissions and have a better understanding of the regulation services. Economists evaluate and valuate costs and benefits looking for alternative policies but are more sensible to environmental production services. In the end each discipline tends to evaluate the environment based on its own frame of reference. Decision support systems combine all these evaluations in order to recommend the best solutions taking into account all the interests involved. But only when the decisions are taken and implemented it is possible to say that all these different evaluations of facts are transformed into values associated with acts, impacts and effects. The objective of this essay is not to propose an alternative decision support system able to recommend best solutions for policymakers. The purpose is to introduce a methodology able to estimate the decision rules revealed by public choices. It is assumed that different disciplinary evaluations can be designed to complement each other rather than to compete with each other. It is also presupposed that each one of these evaluations could be allocated to the same spatial and temporal referential of decision-making. Finally, it is alleged that rational public choices should be consistent so that the trade-off between disciplinary evaluations of alternative decisions should be similar along all the decisional boundaries, where one decision must have the same marginal value as the alternative solution. The methodology is exemplified for three types of decisions: the design of a protected area, the design of a land use plan for the protection of water springs and the management plan of a marine ecosystem. The results include not only the estimates of the decision rules revealed by former public choices but also the design of consistent plans implicit in the revealed decision rules and an assessment of the total value of each plan that combines the ecological, environmental, social and economic valuations through the revealed decision rules.",,177-202,,,24,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000398780400011,,,DOI: 10.1007/978-981-10-0099-7_10,,,,BIODIVERSITY; Coastal management; Cost benefit analysis; ECONOMIC VALUATION; Ecosystem services; GOODS; Land use; Land use planning; MANAGEMENT; Marine spatial planning; QUALITY; SYSTEMS; Valuation,,"Shibusawa, H; Sakurai, K; Mizunoya, T; Uchida, S",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Examining the elements of nature and their zoning in terms of natural heritage beauty and geological heritage can enable optimal productivity of nature and ecosystem services, and the present research with this approach, seeks sustainable use of the natural heritage of Bushehr Province, southeast of Iran. It is for the purposes of tourism and recreation at the regional and national level as well as transnationally. Bushehr Province has many relative advantages such as rich culture, natural gifts and unique tourist attractions and cultural heritage; using the benefits of all these ecosystem resources in the economic development programs of the province can play a big role in increasing growth indicators and reducing the unemployment rate. Preparing the appropriate infrastructure for this tourism space and strengthening the tourism industry is one of the most important needs of the province in this field. Materials and Methods The research method is descriptive-analytical (quantitative) and field study to investigate the natural heritage potential of Bushehr Province using spatial data related to the research problem. The main goal of the current research is to quantitatively evaluate the land heritage sites of the southern coasts of the country, a new approach in development planning for the nature-based tourism destination in Bushehr Province. For the quantitative assessment of the natural heritage sites of the province, four methods of M-GAM, Fassoulas, Comanescu and Kubalíková have been used. These methods have been used because the Kubalikova method emphasizes more on scientific features and the Comanescu method uses several methods to evaluate geosites and emphasizes management, beauty, scientific, etc. Fassoulas method also emphasizes more on protection aspects; In fact, the Fassoulas method has been used to complete the Comanescu method and to evaluate geosites in terms of all criteria. Jam method is generally based on tourism and human values. Results and Discussion For the purpose of this study, 63 sites/ natural heritage or geographical heritage previously described in Bushehr Province were evaluated using GAM/M-GAM, Kubalíková, Fassoulas and Comanescu methodology. The purpose of this stage of the current research was to compare the current situation and their geotourism potential and identify the most suitable sites for the initial development of geotourism in the province based on a combined method using the identification, listing and evaluation of geosites/land heritage. The highest values of all the criteria were obtained in the four methods used for the wetland and protected area of Helle, Asalouye mangrove forest and Mira Ahmad hot spring. The protected area of Helle Wetland is one of the most important destinations for nature tourism and bird watching in Bushehr (tourism values). After the formation of this wetland, many plants have grown (ecological, conservation and aesthetic values). It is also a suitable place for those interested in nature and scientific studies (scientific/educational and intrinsic values). Conclusion The present research, in the first part, evaluated the natural heritage sites and geomorphosites of Bushehr province using the four mentioned methods. The combination of the mentioned models can give more accurate and objective results of evaluating the criteria and sub-criteria values of Bushehr's natural heritage sites. In addition, a clearer and more realistic image is obtained, which can be useful for planning and improving visitor activities in other geosites in the country. By identifying geosites and natural heritage sites in the region, each of them was evaluated using the aforementioned methods. Based on the ranking of natural heritage sites based on the evaluation of each site, the top natural heritage sites for educational and tourism activities are Asaluyeh Mangrove Forest, Nayband National Park, Mirahamd Hot Spring, Faryab Waterfall, Jashak Salt Dome, Mond Protected Area and Khayiz Tourism Area. . These sites have the most potential for the development of tourism based on land/natural heritage. Furthermore, the results of the evaluation methods of natural heritage, geoheritage, geosites and geomorphosites of less known areas can be a source for geotourism activities that support economic development and help local communities. The present study from Bushehr province shows that the sites are attractive and suitable for the development of geotourism. This can be due to the educational and aesthetic value of the site and the existence of tourism infrastructure (including transportation, marked routes and other tourism services). However, promoting the province's sites for local and even regional and international geotourism activities requires improving environmental conditions, reducing ecological risks, and providing tourism infrastructure. Undoubtedly, Bushehr region in Iran has many remarkable geosites that have a high potential for the development of geotourism. As mentioned earlier, the natural resources required for the development of geotourism already exist and what is lacking for further development is mainly related to the human factor, especially geosite management. © 2025 by the authors.",,Jan-21,,4,15,,Res.

DO concentrations in the interior GoK vary within a narrow range (6.05-6.86 mg l-1), whereas near-shore waters show wider variations (3.5-7.8 mg l-1). The DO concentration levels in the Gulf waters are close to saturation, varying from 75.4% to 108.6%, which is much higher than the 60% saturation level set for the SW-1 waters. BOD-DO simulation shows that when effluents containing a BOD concentration of 50.0 mg l -1 are introduced at three select locations, DO reduces from 5.1 mg l-1 to 3.1, 5.0 and 3.8 mg l-1, respectively, indicating a strong sensitivity to effluent load. Based on the DO analysis, BOD assimilation capacity of coastal waters around the Marine National Park (MNP) and Marine Sanctuary (MS) in the Gulf is determined. DO available for utilization for various categories of water use is illustrated, keeping in mind the ecology of MNP and MS areas.

The dusky grouper Epinephelus marginatus is classified as ‘Endangered’ in the Mediterranean Sea, where protection measures have proven critical for allowing population recovery and persistence of the species. However, knowledge gaps remain regarding its reproductive behaviours and spawning sites. As with other grouper species, the dusky grouper is known to produce courtship-associated sounds, which were validated in captivity, but no study has ever established a link between sound production and observed behaviours in the wild. This study aims to characterize, both visually and acoustically, the behavioural patterns of wild dusky grouper, thus specifically linking visual courtship behaviours to the associated sound production. Visual as well as passive acoustic methods were employed at two presumptive spawning sites within a Mediterranean Marine Protected Area (MPA) in the north-western Mediterranean Sea over two consecutive summer seasons (2017 and 2018). The temporal patterns of sound production showed site specificity over the month in which reproductive activity was most intense. Courtship calls were mostly recorded around sunset at both study sites and were significantly associated with visual reproductive behaviours. Results also indicated a temporal partitioning in the acoustic activity of the species, with different sound types being recorded at distinct times of the day, likely corresponding to the occurrence of various behaviours during those periods. These findings have important implications for identifying and monitoring dusky grouper spawning sites using passive acoustic methods, therefore providing valuable information for the development, implementation, and/or enforcement of effective conservation measures therein. © 2023 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,,,1,34,,Aquatic Conserv.

However, information on the terrestrial ecosystem is lagging behind. The growing interest of the local community and organizations in terrestrial biodiversity led to the implementation of the biodiversity monitoring system (BMS). This was initiated by the protected area managers through the support of experts in the province. The enhanced BMS aims to equip the local community with knowledge on monitoring, as well as provide reliable baseline information for the protected area. With this effort, this paper provides baseline information initially on the birds of Apo Island, as they are valuable indicators of biodiversity. Birds are ecologically important species, and through their presence, it would be easy to evaluate for any changes in the ecosystem. Data was obtained through the line-transect and point-count method, and a 7-min observation was done at every 250-m point interval. Despite the relatively small land area, the survey specifically observed 27 species belonging to 21 families; nine of these are endemic to the Philippines, 16 are residents, and two are migrants. The island supports higher diversity and abundance, especially during the wet season. Furthermore, eight feeding guilds were also observed that can help shape the structure of other ecological communities. Most of the birds found in Apo Island are widespread in neighboring larger islands – indicative of an occurrence of local migration or colonization – and most of the birds recorded are of “least concern” conservation status. No island endemic is found. The different bird-feeding guilds observed imply various niches occupied that help shape the ecosystem. To better understand the distribution of the birds on the island, characterization of the habitat and quantifying its influence would be the best step forward. © 2024, Department of Science and Technology.

The establishment of protected areas has been used as a conservation action to maintain or help in the recovery of these populations; however, the effectiveness of protected areas in safeguarding bird populations within their borders from negative impacts to populations in surrounding unprotected areas has rarely been evaluated. Our study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of protected areas in the San Francisco Bay Area of California for landbirds. We conducted point count surveys along riparian corridors in coastal Marin County in protected areas, predominately national parks, and estimated the population growth rates for 14 species over 23 years. We compared these growth rates to North American Breeding Bird Survey growth rate estimates from the Coastal California and the Northern Pacific Rainforest Bird Conservation Regions, which comprise larger, regional populations. A safeguarding effect was detected for 9 of the 14 species. We expected an effect on species strongly associated with riparian vegetation, which has incurred significant loss and degradation in the region; however, we instead observed benefits to general riparian users that were at least as great as the benefits to strong riparian specialists. We also expected that populations of resident species might benefit more than migrants; however, we found strong support for a safeguarding effect for both groups. Species with increasing growth rates in coastal Marin County protected areas in comparison to regionally stable or decreasing populations demonstrate the potential for protected areas to not only maintain populations despite declines outside their boundaries but also to help them recover from current and previous losses. Continuing long-term monitoring and associated full life cycle research will help identify if and when other drivers (e.g., climate change) may weaken these safeguarding effects, or when additional conservation and management is warranted.  © 2021 The Author(s).

We radio-tagged and tracked 78 manatees along the east coast of Florida and Georgia over a 12-year period (1986-1998). Our goals were to characterize the seasonal movements, migratory behavior, and site fidelity of manatees in this region in order to provide information for the development of effective conservation strategies. Most study animals were tracked remotely with the Argos satellite system, which yielded a mean (SD) of 3.7 (1.6) locations per day; all were regularly tracked in the field using conventional radiotelemetry methods. The combined data collection effort yielded >93,000 locations over nearly 32,000 tag-days. The median duration of tracking was 8.3 months per individual, but numerous manatees were tracked over multiple years (max = 6.8 years). Most manatees migrated seasonally over large distances between a northerly warm-season range and a southerly winter range (median one-way distance = 280 km, max = 830 km), but 12% of individuals were resident in a relatively small area (<50 km) year-round. The movements of one adult male spanned >2,300 km of coastline between southeastern Florida and Rhode Island. No study animals journeyed to the Gulf coast of Florida. Regions heavily utilized by tagged manatees included: Fernandina Beach, FL to Brunswick, GA in the warm season; northern Biscayne Bay to Port Everglades, FL in the winter; and central coastal Florida, especially the Banana River and northern Indian River lagoons, in all seasons. Daily travel rate, defined as the distance between successive mean daily locations, averaged 2.5 km (SD = 1.7), but this varied with season, migratory pattern, and sex. Adult males traveled a significantly greater distance per day than did adult females for most of the warm season, which corresponded closely with the principal period of breeding activity, but there was no difference between the sexes in daily travel rate during the winter. The timing of seasonal migrations differed markedly between geographic regions. Most long-distance movements in the southern half of the study area occurred between November and March in response to changing temperatures, whereas most migrations in the northern region took place during the warmer, non-winter months. Manatees left their warm-season range in central Florida in response to cold fronts that dropped water temperatures by an average of 2.0°C over the 24-hr period preceding departure. Water temperature at departure from the warm-season range averaged 19°C, but varied among individuals (16-22°C) and was not related to body size or female reproductive status. The presence of industrial warm-water effluents permitted many manatees to overwinter north of their historic winter range, and for some migrants this delayed autumn migrations and facilitated earlier spring migrations. Southward autumn and northward spring migrations lasted an average of 10 and 15 days at mean rates of 33.5 (SD = 7.6) and 27.3 (SD = 10.5) km/day, respectively. The highest rate of travel during migration was 87 km/day (3.6 km/hr) during winter. Manatees overwintering in southeastern Florida often traveled north during mild weather - sometimes reaching their warm-season range - only to return south again with the next major cold front. Manatees were consistent in their seasonal movement patterns across years and showed strong fidelity, to warm-season and winter ranges. Within a season, individuals usually occupied only 1 or 2 core use areas that encompassed about 90% of daily locations. Most manatees returned faithfully to the same seasonal ranges year after year (median distance between range centers was <5 km between years). Seasonal movements of 4 immature manatees tracked as calves with their mothers and then as independent subadults after weaning provided evidence for strong natal philopatry to specific warm-season and winter ranges, as well as to migratory patterns. Seasonal movement patterns of manatees along the Atlantic coast were largely driven by seasonal changes in temperature, but seasonal and spatial variation in the abundance and quality of forage was probably also important. Individuals generally occupied a few, relatively small seasonal ranges that were linked by lengthy travel corridors used briefly during migrations. The existence of traditional migrations and of strong philopatry to specific areas have a number of implications for management, including the design of protected area networks for manatees. Despite these conservative behavioral traits, individual manatees showed variability in other movement parameters, including the timing of migrations and duration spent in different regions within a winter. This behavioral flexibility has permitted Florida manatees to exploit some human habitat alterations to their advantage; for example, by using industrial thermal outfalls to extend their stay in northerly regions. Recovery of this endangered species will depend on our ability to reduce human-caused mortality, to protect essential habitats, and to keep the pace of habitat alteration within the time frame of the manatee's capacity to adapt.",,Jan-77,,151,,,Wildl.

Despite high endemism, montane forests across the island of Java are under-represented in Indonesia's protected area network. Here, we document the montane biodiversity of Gunung Slamet, an isolated volcano in Central Java, and provide evidence to support its increased protection. During September-December 2018, we surveyed multiple sites for birds, primates, terrestrial mammals, reptiles, amphibians and vegetation. Survey methods included transects, camera traps and targeted searches at six sites, at altitudes of 970-2,512 m. We used species distribution models for birds and mammals of conservation concern to identify priority areas for protection. We recorded 99 bird species (13 globally threatened), 15 mammals (five globally threatened) and 17 reptiles and amphibians (two endemic). Our species distribution models showed considerable cross-taxon congruence between important areas on Slamet's upper slopes, generally above 1,800 m. Particularly important were records of the endemic subspecies of the Endangered Javan laughingthrush Garrulax rufifrons slamatensis, not recorded in the wild since 1925, the Endangered Javan gibbon Hylobates moloch and Javan surili Presbytis comata, and the Vulnerable Javan lutung Trachypithecus auratus and Javan leopard Panthera pardus melas. Recent forest loss has been modest, at least 280 km2 of continuous forest remain above 800 m, and our surveys show that forest habitats are in good condition. However, the mountain is widely used by trappers and hunters. Given its importance for biodiversity conservation, we discuss different options for improving the protection status of Gunung Slamet, including designation as a National Park or Essential Ecosystem.  © The Author(s), 2021.

Methods We use a novel, multi-temporal species distribution model, to combine both year-specific occurrence records and land use/cover data in a single model that is subsequently projected over a land cover time series. We investigate changes in geographic range over 25 years and potential drivers of range extent at multiple spatial scales (10 and 30 km) and time-lags (current and 10 years previously).

Such locations typically provide little protection to the species and ecosystems that are most exposed to threatening processes. There are strong political motivations to establish residual reserves that minimize costs and conflicts with users of natural resources. These motivations will likely remain in place as long as success continues to be measured in terms of area (km2) protected. The global pattern of MPAs was reviewed and appears to be residual, supported by a rapid growth of large, remote MPAs. The extent to which MPAs in Australia are residual nationally and also regionally within the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) Marine Park was also examined. Nationally, the recently announced Australian Commonwealth marine reserves were found to be strongly residual, making almost no difference to 'business as usual' for most ocean uses. Underlying this result was the imperative to minimize costs, but without the spatial constraints of explicit quantitative objectives for representing bioregions or the range of ecological features in highly protected zones. In contrast, the 2004 rezoning of the GBR was exemplary, and the potential for residual protection was limited by applying a systematic set of planning principles, such as representing a minimum percentage of finely subdivided bioregions. Nonetheless, even at this scale, protection was uneven between bioregions. Within-bioregion heterogeneity might have led to no-take zones being established in areas unsuitable for trawling with a risk that species assemblages differ between areas protected and areas left available for trawling. A simple four-step framework of questions for planners and policy makers is proposed to help reverse the emerging residual tendency of MPAs and maximize their effectiveness for conservation. This involves checks on the least-cost approach to establishing MPAs in order to avoid perverse outcomes. © 2014 The Authors.",,480-504,,4,25,,Aquatic Conserv. Mar. Freshw.

Results: Four relevant eases were found in which medical authorities and physicians were sued for medical malpractice even though they discharged a patient against medical advice.

However, there have been few attempts to determine how to deploy enforcement effort to get the best return on investment. This is particularly complex where repeated enforcement visits may result in diminishing returns on investment. Straightforward quantitative methods to solve such problems are not available to conservation practitioners. We use structured decision-making to find the most cost-effective allocation of patrol effort among sites with a limited budget. We use the case study of declining migratory shorebirds in Moreton Bay, Australia, to determine where and when Marine Park personnel could reduce disturbance using two different scenarios: (i) where a fixed subset of sites is chosen for management each year and (ii) where different sites are visited during each patrol. The goal is to maximize the number of undisturbed birds for a given budget. We discover that by prioritizing enforcement based on cost-effectiveness, it is possible to avoid inefficient allocation of resources. Indeed, 90% of the maximum possible benefit can be achieved with only 25% of the total available budget. Visiting a range of enforcement sites at varying rates yields a greater return on investment than visiting only a fixed number of sites. Assuming an exponential reduction in disturbance from enforcement, the greatest benefit can be achieved by patrolling many sites a small number of times. Assuming a linear reduction in disturbance from enforcement, repeatedly patrolling a small number of sites where return on investment is high is best. If we only prioritize sites where wildlife is disturbed most often, or where abundance is greatest, we will not achieve an optimal solution. The choice of patrol location and frequency is not a trivial problem, and prudent investment can substantially improve conservation outcomes. Synthesis and applications. Our research demonstrates a straightforward objective method for allocating enforcement effort while accounting for diminishing returns on investment over multiple visits to the same sites. Our method is transferable to many other enforcement problems, and provides solutions that are cost-effective and easily communicable to managers. © 2016 The Authors.

This imperative arises from the fundamental role that this sector occupies in global trade and the transportation of people. To achieve this goal, the use of green propulsions and alternative fuels play a central role, guaranteeing a significant reduction of ships global emissions and the respect of rules imposed in the Emission Control Areas (ECAs), therefore the preservation of the sea. If environmental awareness has been a reality for which efforts have been underway for years in land-based transportation, the same cannot be said for the maritime industry. For this reason, and with the aim of introducing innovative and more eco-compatible solutions, the paper presents the methodology used for the preliminary design of a 75-m Mega Yacht and sizing of the hybrid diesel-electric propulsion system equipped with hydrogen powered fuel cells and pressurized storage. As current technology does not support long-range sailing with full hydrogen propulsion, the hybrid propulsion was preferred. The configuration presented offers the flexibility of full electric sailing for short distances (up to 130 nautical miles) or to access protected areas, while also allowing traditional propulsion when hydrogen refuelling infrastructure is unavailable at ports or when faster sailing is required. The power unit consists of four FCs with a total power of 540 kW, two 180 kW electric motors combined with two 1765 kW thermal engines. The hydrogen storage area is composed of 105 cylinders with a total capacity of 21.3 m3 and a pressure of 350 bar, respecting the current regulations and guidelines for the use of hydrogen and pressurized explosive gases onboard.

Despite the number of MPAs growing worldwide, many of them fail to achieve their goals, sometimes up to the point of becoming the so-called “paper parks”: protected areas without real protection or enforcement that are virtually non-existent in terms of their effectiveness in achieving the ecological and socioeconomic goals for which they have been set up. Following the Kunming–Montreal Biodiversity Agreement (COP 15), the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, and the Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction treaty, global MPA coverage should increase substantially in the coming years. Hence, identifying the factors that contribute to raising the effectiveness of MPAs is pivotal to informing their planning and management. Our study introduces a model based on the Bayesian network that allows testing how different socioeconomic factors (e.g., stakeholder involvement, increased communication and enforcement) can impact the effectiveness of MPAs. The system is a user-friendly decision-support tool to quantify the contribution of each factor in the creation of a successful MPA, thus narrowing the gap between science and decision-making. We modelled the evolution of the effectiveness of MPAs under three contrasting policy-relevant scenarios based on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change frameworks. Our results indicate that the highest and lowest the effectiveness of MPAs is achieved under the “global sustainability” and “national enterprise” scenarios, respectively. Our work sheds light on the complexity of the interactions among the different factors underpinning the effectiveness of MPAs and supports the growth process of MPAs at the global level on the pathway towards the sustainable exploitation of marine living resources. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,84,,Ecol.

Despite the number of MPAs rapidly increasing worldwide, there are concerns over the full achievement of their objectives. Indeed, in some cases—the phenomenon of so-called “paper parks”—protected areas totally fail to achieve their conservation and socioeconomic targets. Therefore, identifying the factors underpinning MPA success or failure is crucial to increase their effectiveness. To achieve this goal, we performed a global literature review on the socioeconomic factors that managers should pursue to enhance MPA effectiveness on a global scale. A search of the Scopus database, using strings of keywords connected by Boolean operators, generated a batch of 715 items, out of which 68 were retained after the application of inclusion/exclusion criteria. Six other articles were added through the scanning of the literature cited in selected papers. We grouped MPA success-factors into 13 main groups and ranked them according to the frequency of citation in the literature. Our findings identify stakeholder involvement, increasing communication and awareness between specific stakeholder groups, as well as ensuring appropriate enforcement and monitoring, control and surveillance, as the leading factors for MPA success. Our results will assist in the process of upcoming global expansion of MPAs, thus contributing to improving conservation of marine biodiversity and associated livelihoods. © 2023 by the authors.",,,,5,15,,Sustainability,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI,,,,biodiversity; communication; EU biodiversity strategy; fishery management; literature review; marine ecosystem; marine protected areas; nature-based solutions; protected area; small-scale fisheries; socioeconomic impact; stakeholder; stakeholder engagement,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Collaborative conservation initiatives that engage stakeholders in action research and knowledge co-production processes can enhance management and governance of MPAs. To design effective strategies aimed at reconciling biodiversity conservation and management of sustainable human uses, it is key to assess how local communities respond to such initiatives and identify the set of contextual factors, institutional, local and individual, potentially affecting these responses. This paper presents the approach and results of one such initiative, spanning 6 EU countries and 11 MPAs in the Mediterranean Sea, focusing on small-scale fishers as key MPA users. Through a collaborative project, managers and fishers agreed upon specific governance interventions (e.g. increasing stakeholder engagement, engaging fishers in monitoring activities, reducing fishing efforts) to be implemented in each MPA for one year. Structured surveys queried: MPA managers on the MPA context, governance structure, feasibility and effectiveness of the tested interventions; and small-scale fishers on their perceptions of the impact of the tested interventions on a set of 9 socio-ecological variables (e.g. amount of fish caught, level of participation in decision-making, support for the MPA). Results revealed that the interventions tested were relatively feasible, effective and cost-effective. Fishers reported positive perceptions of the interventions for the 9 variables considered, especially for level of support for the MPA and for those associated with aspects of governance. Proportional odds models highlighted perceived effects are maximized under certain institutional, local and individual circumstances (e.g. old MPAs, small fisher communities, and fishers with a high proportion of income from fisheries). Findings highlight that employing good governance processes involving stakeholders may rapidly generate improved local support for conservation and provide insights for potential leverage points upon which to act to maximize perceived effectiveness and enhance support toward MPAs. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,269,,J.

Many MPAs embed a no-take zone, aiming to preserve natural populations and ecosystems, within a buffer zone where potentially sustainable activities are allowed. Small-scale fisheries (SSF) within buffer zones can be highly beneficial by promoting local socio-economies. However, guidelines to successfully manage SSFs within MPAs, ensuring both conservation and fisheries goals, and reaching a win-win scenario, are largely unavailable. From the peer-reviewed literature, grey-literature and interviews, we assembled a unique database of ecological, social and economic attributes of SSF in 25 Mediterranean MPAs. Using random forest with Boruta algorithm we identified a set of attributes determining successful SSFs management within MPAs. We show that fish stocks are healthier, fishermen incomes are higher and the social acceptance of management practices is fostered if five attributes are present (i.e. high MPA enforcement, presence of a management plan, fishermen engagement in MPA management, fishermen representative in the MPA board, and promotion of sustainable fishing). These findings are pivotal to Mediterranean coastal communities so they can achieve conservation goals while allowing for profitable exploitation of fisheries resources. © The Author(s) 2016.",,,,,6,,Sci.

There is mixed evidence regarding the effects of MPAs on benthic assemblages, habitat complexity, and how protection might mediate the effects of habitat features (including biotic and abiotic components) on fish assemblages, with very little information concerning temperate areas. Here, our aim is to assess how protection 1) influences benthic assemblages and habitat complexity, and 2) mediates the effects of habitat complexity on fishes. Using non-destructive methods (photosampling for shallow rocky benthic assemblages, and underwater visual census using strip transects for fish assemblages) to characterize benthic and fish assemblages, we sampled 15 Mediterranean locations, each including protected and unprotected sites. In all, we sampled 90 sites, and analyzed 2,760 photos and 800 replicated transects, gathering information on 44 benthic and 72 fish taxa. Abiotic, biotic and synthetic (i.e. combining the previous two) complexity indices have been computed to synthesize habitat features. Overall, whole benthic assemblages did not significantly differ between protected and unprotected conditions, but higher cover of the ecologically important erect algae belonging to the genus Cystoseira sensu lato was recorded within MPAs. Abiotic, biotic and synthetic complexity did not show clear patterns related to protection levels, displaying inconsistent responses between different locations. Our findings highlight that protection has a generally positive effect on fish biomass, this latter variable responding independently of the habitat complexity. Our study, in conclusion, confirms that MPAs can be effective to protect and restore rocky-reef assemblages, highlighting the need for more in-depth exploration of the mechanisms determining the different responses of benthic taxa to protection and how this can influence the associated fish assemblages. © 2021 The Author(s)",,,,,128,,Ecol.

Protecting places to conserve marine mammals started about 50 years ago, when the first parks and reserves were established to protect the critical habitat of specific populations. However, the challenges of protecting habitats that cross national borders and span oceans including the high seas remain problematic. International cooperation is needed, e.g. within the framework of multilateral environmental agreements such as the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and the Convention on Migratory Species (CMS), as well as a potential new agreement through the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). Increasingly, the process of demarcating marine protected areas (MPAs) is being supported by other spatial designations, including CBD's ecological or biologically significant areas (EBSAs), the International Maritime Organization's particularly sensitive sea areas (PSSAs), IUCN's key biodiversity areas (KBAs), and biologically important areas (BIAs) adopted by the USA and Australia. Recently, the important marine mammal areas (IMMA) designation has been introduced by the IUCN Task Force on marine mammal protected areas. Such approaches have the potential to increase the protection of marine mammals within the overarching approach of systematic marine spatial planning. Considering the attributes of marine mammals as sentinel, umbrella and flagship species, it is likely that emerging place-based approaches that incorporate IMMAs will not only benefit marine mammal populations, but also contribute more generally to the conservation of marine and aquatic species and ecosystems.

However, careful biological survey design can improve monitoring of critical areas, and help develop ecosystem-based approaches, including spatial management frameworks. The current study aims to reduce the cost of environmental monitoring of sea turtles, river dolphins and manatees within the Soure Marine Extractive Reserve (MER), a multiuse MPA adjacent to Marajo Island, Brazil by creating a data-driven monitoring prioritization framework. Here we present a novel and adaptable approach for designing surveys and prioritizing monitoring areas within the coastal and marine habitats of MER. We mapped all the anthropogenic activities occurring in the area and used the fuzzy logic framework to identify high priority locations. Fuzzy logic models go beyond binary categorization, allowing elements to belong to one or more categories. This framework also incorporates spatial uncertainty of reporting data. Our results indicate that approximately 30% of the Soure MER core area has a high monitoring priority, with some spillover into the buffer zone. The model defined the southeast portion of the core area as the largest single patch available for monitoring a species of concern, due to the higher concentration of fixed fishing gear operations. For the future, this model could be adapted to inform habitat suitability and test the effectiveness of the different use zones delimitated in the Soure MER management plan. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,188,,Ocean Coast.

Methods using non-parametric classifiers and object-oriented analysis have been suggested as possible solutions for overcoming these limitations. In this paper, we aimed at evaluating the performance of some of these techniques for the European Natura 2000 network of protected areas habitats mapping. For this purpose, we tested different methods of supervised image classification in the Northern Mountains of Galicia, Spain, an area included in the Natura 2000 network, which is characterized by a highly heterogeneous landscape. Methods involved the use of maximum likelihood and nearest neighbour decision rules in per-pixel and per-object classification analyses on Landsat TM imagery. Per-object classifications were completed using the segment mean and segment means plus standard deviation feature spaces. The results showed the existence of significant differences in the accuracies for the different methodologies, their strengths and weaknesses and identified the most adequate approach for habitat mapping. Analyses pointed out that significant improvements in accuracy were achieved only under certain combinations of per-object analysis, non-parametric classifiers and high dimensionality feature space. © Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2007.",,229-250,,01-Mar,144,,Environ.

The Sontecomapan Lagoon is a protected natural area and is part of the Los Tuxtlas Biosphere Reserve on the south coast of the State of Veracruz, with significant fishing productivity and little ecological knowledge about its fish community. Objectives. Analyze space-time variations in diversity, richness, abundance, dominant species, community inhabitants, fish assemblages, and trophic groups. Methods. The fish collections were made between 2014 and 2020, in 10 stations with a trawl net. The sampling effort was validated using non-parametric estimators. Analysis of variance was used to indicate statistically significant differences in community ecological parameters between sites and months. Canonical correspondence analysis (ACC) was performed to determine species-habitat relationships. Results. Fifty species, 35 genera and 23 families were identified, with 2 new records, Chaetodipterus faber (Broussonet, 1782) and Pomadasys ramosus (Poey, 1860) and 2 dominant species, Diapterus rhombeus (Cuvier, 1829) and Cathorops aguadulce (Meek, 1904). The diversity values (H’ = 0.84 to 2.07, D = 2.36 to 3.83, J’= 0.26 to 0.64) and abundance (density = 0.009 to 0.035 ind./m2, biomass = 0.105 to 0.044 g/m2, average weight = 5.91 to 16.72 g/ind), are considered low compared to other similar coastal systems. The spatial and temporal fluctuations of these parameters are related to the life cycles of the species present and with the environmental dynamics of the system. The ACC analysis indicated that fish assemblages are determined by changes in salinity, transparency, and depth. Conclusion. The ecological information analyzed represents a broad frame of reference for a little-studied coastal area that requires management and conservation strategies for its biotic resources. © 2023 Universidad Autonoma Metropolitana.

Methodology used was based on three consecutive-year (2006-2008) monitoring and ground inventory inside and outside the reserve. The results of the inventories have led to the identification of 41 hippopotamus in 2008 versus 35 in 2006 which are divided into 3 distinct herds. The structure in age group of that population was composed of 32 were adults, 5 sub-adults and 4 juveniles. Location of places where they take a rest varies with the level of the water in the pond. The inventory has identified eight sites on each side of the pond as used by hippos to harvest food. In addition, exploration of the reserve has identified four temporary ponds located near the water meadows used by hippos during the rainy season. These areas were surrounded by agricultural fields that were often raided by these mammals for food. It is urgent to establish agricultural zoning and to grant a special conservation status to the four additional ponds to minimize conflicts between humans and hippopotamus. Finally, local participation in conservation activities is probably greatly responsible for an increase in the size of the hippo population. © Théophile Ollo Dibloni, Cédric Vermeulen, Wendengoudi Guenda et Millogo Nicolas Alfred.",,175-189,,2,3,,Trop.

Spatial management is used also to optimize yields or protect key parts of the life cycle of species that are utilized (hunted, farmed or fished), for example through rotational harvesting. To evaluate the effectiveness of marine spatial closures with conflicting fisheries and conservation objectives, a series of marine fisheries closures are here analysed using an integrative modelling tool known as management strategy evaluation (MSE). This modelling framework combines a food web model of a tropical ecosystem fished by a prawn (shrimp) fishery that emulates the resource being managed, together with the present management system and risk-based tools of fishing the prawn species at maximum economic yield. A series of spatial closures are designed and tested with the aim of investigating trade-offs among biodiversity (MPA), benthic impacts, ecosystem function, key species at risk to fishing, economic and sustainability objectives. Synthesis and applications. This paper illustrates that existing tools often available in actively managed fisheries can be linked together into an effective management strategy evaluation framework. Spatial closures tended to succeed with respect to their specific design objective, but this benefit did not necessarily flow to other broad-scale objectives. This demonstrates that there is no single management tool which satisfies all objectives, and that a suite of management tools is needed.

Ecosystem-based management (EBM) in British Columbia began with the development of land use plans in the 1990s to address coastal and land use issues related to terrestrial land management. Managing marine resources is challenging on Canada's Pacific coast because of multiple, overlapping jurisdictions, unceded indigenous territories, and lack of coordination amongst governments in the region and their agencies. The Marine Plan Partnership for the North Pacific Coast (MaPP) was formed in 2011 and was a co-led partnership between 18 First Nations’ and the Province of British Columbia governments. The purpose of the MaPP Initiative was to develop and implement marine plans for 102,000 square kilometers of coastal and offshore water in northern British Columbia. A co-led governance framework included the member First Nations and the Provincial government structured into multiple levels of decisions making, conflict resolution, and technical support. Integral to the planning process was broad and continual stakeholder engagement through multiple advisory committees as well as public engagement. The planning process made use of multiple information sources including traditional, scientific, and local knowledge and was completed in 3.5 years. The result was the development and signing into policy of four sub-regional marine plans (one for each of the four MaPP sub-regions: Haida Gwaii, North Coast, Central Coast, and North Vancouver Island) and a Regional Action Framework. The sub-regional plans delineate protection, special, and general management zones for multiple objectives and will inform future policy decisions for marine protected areas, tenures, resource management and coastal development through an EBM approach. The plans will inform permits for marine tenures including aquaculture, offshore renewable energy siting, contribute to Canada's marine protected areas network, and improve coastal infrastructure. The Regional Action Framework highlights activities to occur across the entire region through five main activity areas (Regional Governance, Ecological Integrity and Human Well-being, Compliance and Enforcement, Cumulative Effects Assessment, and Zoning Recommendations). Funding for planning was through a public-private model that also supported the development of the plans and decision support tools (e.g. planning and mapping portal). Discussions regarding implementation began during the planning phase to ensure long-term commitment from the Partners and continuity to improve decision making and management within the MaPP area. The process design and methodology created by MaPP can be a model for planning in areas that involve multiple authorities, complex geographies and jurisdictional arrangements that can be scaled up for regional, cross border, and transboundary marine spatial planning. © 2020",,,,,142,,Mar.

Aim To determine the population size and distribution of Red-throated Divers in Britain for comparison with the previous national survey in 1994. Methods All freshwater bodies in Shetland, Orkney and two Special Protection Areas (SPAs) in the Hebrides were censused for Red-throated Divers. A stratified sample of 5-km squares was surveyed throughout the rest of the range. Two visits were made to all suitable habitats, at least 2 weeks apart, between 15 May and 31 July. Results The British breeding population of Red-throated Divers was estimated to be 1143 breeding pairs, although around 12% of adults recorded as non-breeding may actually have bred. Thus, a corrected estimate was calculated giving 1255 (95% Cl 1014-1551) pairs. The total population of adults was estimated to be 4146 (95% CI 3430-4992). Shetland held 33% and the Outer Hebrides 26% of the breeding population.

In this study, we examine fishers' perception of a long-established exclusive fisheries zone around Malta and to investigate if the perceptions depend on fishers' demographic, economic, social characteristics and fishing activity of the fishers. A questionnaire survey was undertaken to evaluate the demographic characteristics, economic situation (costs and revenue) and fishers' activity and behaviour, together with their perception of the Fisheries Management Zone (FMZ). A total of 241 interview responses were analysed which was a response rate of 60%. The perception of most fishers was that the establishment of the FMZ has had an overall negative impact on their fishing activity and that the zone is not important for the protection of local fish stocks. When asked about the beneficial effect of the zone for fishers, most fishers from all backgrounds said that the zone does not benefit commercial fishers, but benefits mainly recreational fishers. The most evident differences in the perceptions and attitudes were between the full-time, part-time and recreational fishers. Fishers that have been fishing for more than 35 years and fishers from the main fishing village also had different attitudes from other fishers towards the FMZ. The results of this study suggest that the proportion of individual income derived from fishing was the strongest factor that influenced attitudinal differences, with home port and fishing experience having less important effects. The main differences in attitude among fishers were related to the protection and conservation effects of the zone, enhancement of resources and conflicts among user groups. The heterogeneity among fishers' attitudes revealed by the present study has important implications for the implementation of spatial closures. Some sectors of stakeholders may require additional incentives to accept restrictions on access if spatial management is to achieve its intended objectives. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.",,2691-2702,,11,142,,Biol.

Sampling was conducted at two habitat types (Posidonia oceanica meadows and rocky reefs) that occur at sites of different protection level with respect to fisheries (high protection: seasonal no-take zone within the MPA; intermediate: zones within the MPA where small-scale fishing is allowed; none: areas outside the MPA, where all types of fishing are allowed, including trawlers, purse seiners, and recreational fishing). The data were used to examine the effects of protection level and habitat type on community parameters, trophic structure and functional diversity of fish populations that occupy the upper sublittoral zone. Overall, habitat type had a more pronounced effect than protection level on all investigated parameters. Biomass, density and number of fish species with low commercial value were higher in sites of intermediate protection, but no substantial fisheries-related ecological benefits were detected for targeted fish in the seasonal no-take zone. Conducted 8 years after the initial implementation of the seasonal no-take management scheme, our study suggests that existing fishing regulations in the NMPZ provide some measurable effects, but fall short of maintaining sufficient protection for the recovery of apex predators or other commercially important fish species. A revision of the existing zoning system to include permanent no-take zones, alongside the regulation of professional fishing and all extractive activities in the rest of the MPA, are strongly encouraged in order to enhance the effectiveness of fisheries management. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,223-231,,,207,,Estuar.

Despite a number of conservation efforts outlined for the SPAs of Natura 2000 network, the potential threats and influences of haemosporidians and other parasites on occurring birds were not considered. In the present study, we aim to investigate the richness of haemosporidian parasites in birds captured in the protected area and to report the parasite species/DNA lineages that undergo local transmission in the region. We used both microscopic examination and PCR-based methods to diagnose haemosporidian infections in juvenile (captured in the year of hatching) and adult birds. The overall prevalence of haemosporidian parasites was significantly higher in the adult birds compared to juveniles. We identified five out of 21 recorded cytochrome b (cyt b) parasite lineages that are locally transmitted in the SPA DL (one of the genus Haemoproteus Kruse, 1890 and four of genus Plasmodium Marchiafava and Celli, 1885): cyt b lineages hRW2 of Haemoproteus belopolskyi, pSGS1 of Plasmodium relictum, pCOLL1, pYWT4 and pPADOM01 of Plasmodium (Haemamoeba) spp. It is likely that the majority of the parasites with local transmission are widespread host generalists and that host exchange is rather frequent among the birds inhabiting SPA DL. © 2018, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,2187-2199,,7,117,,Parasitol.

Foreign-flagged ships passing through the strait from southbound to northbound and vice versa. Along with being an archipelagic sea lane, the strait also occupied by high-density crossing traffic connecting Bali and Lombok islands. This crossing traffic mainly dominated by passenger ferry Ro-Ro and pleasure ships as both Bali and Lombok islands are well known as tourist destinations. Aside from being a tourist destination, several islands around the Lombok Strait are also dedicated to Marine Protected Areas (MPA). There are two areas designated for MPA by the Indonesian government in the vicinity of Lombok Strait; Nusa Penida on the west side of IASL II and Gili Matra on the east side. The traffic condition allows the potential for collisions on ships passing through and crossing the Lombok Strait which is very likely caused by navigation errors, human errors, weather conditions, and other technical problems. This study aims to determine the collision risk analysis in terms of annual frequency of collision and grounding as well as the potential dispersion of oil that occurs in the event of a ship collision near the MPA of Nusa Penida. Based on one-year traffic data and forecasted to 20 years, collision and grounding frequencies analysis was conducted using iWRAP method. The analysis found that annual frequency including head-on, overtaking, crossing, merging, bend, and grounding is 4.73×10-1. In addition to the frequency of collisions, oil spill dispersion simulations were carried out using GNOME under two different conditions wind and sea current directions; wind and sea currents that heading to the Northwest, and Southwest. Given a scenario of collision occurred close to Nusa Penida island involving tanker ship that resulting hull damage and oil spill while the wind and sea current directed to Southwest, simulation resulting that oil spill will disperse and polluting MPA of Nusa Penida. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,557,,,,,,,,IOP Publishing Ltd,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

The results show that the sensitivity assessment model designed in this study can identify sensitive zones effectively, and that the ECR in Hubei Province are well within the sensitive zones so identified. The delimited areas based on the sensitive assessment of ecosystem services have great similarities (95%) with the actual ECR areas in Hubei Province. The most ecologically important functional zones (EIFZ) can also be identified using the regional ecological sensitivity coefficient. When the threshold of EIFZ is set higher, the probability that it falls within the ecologically sensitive areas is greater and the ECR delimited by the method proposed in this study will be more reliable. Theoretically, the delimitation of ECR can be inserted at any evaluation level with a grid resolution higher than that of the land use data, which can be used as a supplement to the ECR delimitation method in ecology or geography. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,97,,Land Use Policy,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,China; conceptual framework; Cosine similarity of space vector; design; Ecological conservation redlines; ecosystem service; Ecosystem services; Hubei; land use change; model; Odds ratio matrix of land use transition; protected area; Sensitivity; sensitivity analysis; theoretical study,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Methodology: Sampling was carried out in three villages (Formosa, Nago and TChediă) of the Community Marine Protected Area. A total of 1596 individuals were collected. On each mudflat, four random transects 30 m apart and oriented from the shore to the sea were established. On each transect, individuals of Tagelus angulatus were collected on 6 plots of 1m2 that were separated by 10 m. Results: The length of the individuals sampled ranged from 12 mm to 69 mm in all three of the villages studied with an average length of 48.65 ± 9.53 mm and a main mode equal to 53 mm. The results showed a positive allometry. The length and width of the species are also strongly correlated. The mean density for all three villages was 16.63 individuals.

With prior confirmation of their relationship to spatial variation in biodiversity, habitat classification schemes are a potentially useful surrogate. Polychaetes can comprise over one-third of species of benthic infaunal assemblages, they are the most frequent and abundant marine metazoans in benthic environments, and they are a reliable surrogate for other macrobenthic taxa. It was tested whether polychaete biodiversity differed among six estuarine habitat classes defined for conservation planning in the Port Stephens-Great Lakes Marine Park, New South Wales, Australia: subtidal sand, mud, muddy sand, and seagrass beds comprising Posidonia australis, Zostera capricorni and mixed Posidonia/Zostera. Polychaetes were sampled from replicate sites in each habitat and differences among habitat classes in species richness, abundance, and assemblage structure were examined. Several environmental variables, known to be important determinants of polychaete distribution, were also quantified at each site. Ninety-five species of polychaetes (belonging to 35 families) were identified. Species richness and abundance did not differ among the habitat classes. Polychaete assemblages of subtidal sand differed from assemblages in both mud and muddy sand, however, assemblages in all other habitats were not different. A combination of some of the measured environmental variables (distance to the estuary entrance, depth, sediment grain size) was a more important determinant of assemblage variation than the habitat classes. Using these predictors, an alternative habitat classification scheme to the scheme currently utilized in marine park planning is proposed. This study demonstrates the critical importance of testing assumptions about surrogacy and an approach for refining surrogates. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,463-477,,4,24,,Aquatic Conserv. Mar.

It argues that OECMs can complement MPAs and contribute to ecologically representative and effectively managed marine protected areas systems integrated into broader governance systems such as marine spatial planning. Selected global and local sectoral conservation measures are therefore highlighted in this analysis as potential forms of OECMs. At the local level, a case study of ecologically or biologically significant marine areas managed as locally managed marine areas (LMMAs) in Mozambique is discussed.

Coastal zones are subject to great environmental vulnerability in terms of climate change, anthropogenic pressures, and chemical accidents at different scales. Thus, the present work aims to analyze the management plans of the Marine UCs affected by oil spills in the coastal zone of Brazil in 2019, in order to verify and analyze the presence of contingency plans, as well as the identification of possible proposed actions to mitigate that impact. With this research, it was verified that of the 119 Marine UCs in the affected states, only 42 management plans. Of these, 20 were in the influence area of spills, covering 26 municipalities in 7 states, however, none of them presented actions related to the contingency or mitigation of impacts related to chemical accidents in their management plan. Furthermore, in relation to the updating of the management plans, they were found to be outdated since their publication in the 1990s, as verified in the Units of the state of Bahia. Therefore, it is suggested that when performing the updates, the plans should include specifications aimed at incidents with chemicals, especially oil spills, in addition to other anthropic actions to which coastal environments are predisposed. © 2022 APRH",,117-126,,2,22,,J.

Several methods have been used to quantify hunting in past studies (e.g. interviews, ranger patrols and camera traps). However, none of these alone have been able to produce precise spatiotemporal measures of hunting activity. In this study, we used a new method to detect hunters through passive acoustic monitors and developed an integrated approach to measure hunting activity while simultaneously assessing its impacts on mammal populations using camera traps. We applied a hierarchical community occupancy model that accounted for the imperfect detection of species on data from 45 trap locations, surveyed from January to June 2018, to investigate the impacts of spatial variation and intensity in hunting pressure on mammal species richness and occurrence in four protected areas in southern Belize. We developed spatiotemporally explicit indices of hunting activity separately from camera trap and acoustic monitor data and used a Bayesian model selection framework to identify predictors of site occurrence for individual species and three functional groups: carnivores, herbivores and omnivores. We found that camera traps under-detected hunting activity in the region by 939% compared to acoustic monitors. Consistent with our predictions, hunting intensity was negatively correlated with site-level species richness, with an average decrease in richness of 31% across its range of variation. Occurrence patterns for the three functional groups were also negatively associated with hunting intensity. Often the target of hunters, herbivores, displayed the strongest negative response to hunting, while omnivores were least affected. Synthesis and applications. Unsustainable hunting of wildlife is a global phenomenon with wide-ranging implications for ecological communities, especially mammals. Our study highlights mammal sensitivity to increasing hunting pressure at the community and species level and emphasizes the necessity for developing robust tools to accurately monitor hunting activity, while also providing a flexible framework for simultaneously assessing hunting and its impacts on mammal communities.",,2100-2111,,11,57,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000574835500001,,,,,,,ABUNDANCE; ACOUSTIC INDEXES; acoustic monitor; Belize; camera trap; CLASSIFICATION; CONSERVATION; DEFAUNATION; DISPERSAL; DIVERSITY; hunting; IDENTIFICATION; JAGUAR; mammal; occupancy; poaching; protected area; WILDLIFE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A primary tool for mitigating species loss is the establishment of protected area networks. The 2030 Global Biodiversity Framework target calls for the protection of 30% of Earth's land surface by 2030. This study identifies areas within the Tropical Important Plant Areas network of the British Virgin Islands (BVI), to better inform the expansion of the current protected area network with the objective of conserving the BVI's unique flora. We identified and applied conservation targets for five threatened habitats and 34 species of conservation concern, including four endemic to the BVI. A total of 5,248 georeferenced plant records for the 34 species collected through decades of collaborative work between the National Parks Trust of the Virgin Islands and the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew, along with the distribution of five threatened habitats were used within the decision support system MARXAN to identify four spatial portfolios to guide the expansion of the BVI's current protected area network. Highlighting the need to expand the current (2007-2017) Protected Areas System Plan in the BVI, we found that the current Plan only covers 15% of terrestrial land and does not meet the conservation targets for plants and habitats. The portfolios identified in our analysis efficiently expand the current Protected Areas System Plan to strategically expand coverage for all conservation features, with two main portfolios reaching all defined conservation targets for protection. Notably, to evaluate options not requiring land purchase, we extracted areas within stateowned Crown land from two main identified portfolios and found that the two Crown land-portfolios could protect 28% and 23% of the BVI, respectively, while meeting the targets for most plants of conservation concern. However, to reach 30% land protection and meet the conservation targets for all plant species, including endemics, private land would need to be considered for this inclusion within the protected area network. Our results provide science-based guidance for the selection of candidate protected area expansion sites that include threatened plants and habitats for reaching the 2030 Biodiversity Framework targets. While systematic conservation planning can provide guidance on protected area expansion, it is important to evaluate and prioritise conservation actions, based on multiple solutions and available resources. We recommend similar approaches are applied more broadly throughout the Caribbean and other archipelagos across the world. © 2024 Pensoft Publishers. All rights reserved.",,153-176,,,55,,Nat.

This quantification is done using different tools, and the resulting information from each tool is often interpreted independently. Our main aim was to contribute to the understanding of the functioning of tropical estuarine ecosystems facing anthropogenic impact, using information on fish diversity, traits and food webs. We used biological and environmental data from 2 Brazilian estuaries with different levels and types of human disturbance: the heavily impacted Paraiba estuary and the environmentally protected Mamanguape estuary (IUCN, Protected Area Category V). Fish assemblages and their prey were collected along the salinity gradient in the dry and wet seasons, and we evaluated (1) species taxonomic diversity, (2) functional diversity based on effect traits and (3) food-web structure through analyses of the natural abundance of stable isotopes (carbon and nitrogen). Species turnover, i.e. the change in species identity, along each estuary was relatively high, and this dissimilarity was considerably greater than the trait turnover (i.e. low functional ?-diversity). These results highlight that, although habitat selection was an important driver of the coexistence of fish species due to spatial environmental gradients, the competition for resources might be high because species tended to use the system in a similar way. The relatively narrow range of both ?13C and ?15N values among fish species also implies competition for the same resources. Moreover, the ?15N values indicated anthropogenic inputs of nitrogen in both estuaries, regardless of their protection framework, which highlights the need for more effective conservation measures. © Inter-Research 2016.",,41-55,,,560,,Mar.

This paper explores the management concept of extractive reserve instruments to find the most effective application in the coastal areas of Cambodia. Since there are various extractive models in the world, the most important objective is to determine which extractive reserve model is best suited to real practices where the ability of the fisheries' residents to apply laws and guidelines vary from one place to another. To reflect these objectives, this paper looks at various examples around the world, especially from various Latin American countries. The level of local ability to apply laws and regulations is determined by the weight average index method. These results shows that fishers' education levels are sufficient to apply laws and regulations, but their understanding of existing fisheries guidelines is still below average. Although the level to which they satisfy the guidelines is poor, local people are willing to establish new appropriate guidelines for future effective application. Therefore, local fishers have the ability to apply laws and regulations under new extractive reserve aspects. An extractive reserve policy combines all available instruments to manage the lagoon. The best alternative is to develop strong collaboration among the various stakeholders in the area. This converts an open-access to common property resource use regime. All instruments of extractive reserve were satisfied by the local fishers. However, extractive reserve seems to be similar with fish refuge concept which currently proposed by Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Centre (SEAFDEC). © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,23-35,,1,15,,J.

This study investigated the pathological findings and mortality of small cetaceans with the aim of detecting hazards and monitoring health trends in a high-biodiversity area. Between 2007 and 2012, 218 stranded cetaceans were recorded on the Paraná coast, southern Brazil. Fifty-seven (26.1%) of these animals, including 50 Sotalia guianensis, 2 Pontoporia blainvillei, 2 Stenella frontalis, 1 Stenella longirostris, 1 Tursiops truncatus and 1 Globicephala melas were necropsied and samples were collected for histopathology. Causes of death were determined in 46 of the 57 (80.7%) animals and most (30 or 65.2%) were ascribed to anthropogenic activities, including fisheries bycatch (28/30) and trauma (2/30). The remaining 16 fatalities were considered natural, and attributed to pneumonia (10/16), emaciation (3/16), septicemia (1/16), neonatal pathology (1/16) and choking via food obstruction (1/16). Irrespective of the cause, bronchointerstitial pneumonia, associated with parasitism, lymphadenitis and membranous glomerulonephritis were common findings among all fatalities. These results suggest, that while anthropogenic activities are a leading cause of cetacean strandings in Paraná, underlying pre-existing diseases may contribute towards deaths. Although the studied area is considered a biosphere reserve by UNESCO, complex anthropogenic and natural interactions might be occurring, increasing cetacean susceptibility to hazards. This study may help facilitate developing an effective conservation plan for coastal cetaceans focusing on reducing fisheries interactions, habitat degradation and pollution as mechanisms for ultimately increasing species resilience. © 2016 Domiciano et al.

Remote sensing datasets and techniques, particularly land cover maps, provide crucial data for capturing spatial and temporal changes, supporting informed decision-making and targeted interventions. However, these maps often emphasize structural rather than functional attributes and, also due to their thematic and temporal resolution, may not detect early degradation signs. This study evaluates the effectiveness of Ecosystem Functional Attributes (EFAs) and Ecosystem Functional Types (EFTs) as early warning indicators of ecosystem degradation. Using Sentinel-2 derived Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data from 2016 to 2022, we conducted qualitative and quantitative EFA/EFT analysis on two fragile protected areas, Moyowosi Game Reserve (Kigoma region, Tanzania) and the Sheikh Jamal Inani National Park (Cox's Bazar district, Bangladesh). Firstly, EFA analysis characterized vegetation productivity and seasonality, revealing temporal trends and spatial patterns of change. Secondly, EFTs served as indicators of change levels. Our findings showed significant insights into productivity shifts due to human activities and climate anomalies, identifying specific temporal events and turning points. Variogram-based geostatistical analysis highlighted changes in vegetation diversity's spatial distribution. Integrating EFA/EFT analysis with geostatistical methods proved effective for early detection of land degradation, surpassing traditional land cover change analysis. Hence, the presented approach forms a robust framework for an early warning system, aimed at monitoring and evaluating environmentally fragile areas and aiding decision-makers in mitigating environmental degradation and promoting sustainable land management. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,169,,Ecol.

With at least three main species targeted by artisanal fisheries in the region with distinct life histories, the lack of basic biological information about the distribution, metapopulation size and structure of each species could impede effective fisheries management to avoid overexploitation. We tested if different life histories of three species of octopus could help predict observed patterns of genetic diversity, population dynamics, structure and connectivity and how this information could be relevant to the sustainable management of the fishery. We sequenced two mitochondrial genes and genotyped seven nuclear microsatellite loci to identify the distribution of each species in 20 locations from the Gulf of California and the west coast of the Baja California peninsula. We tested five hypotheses derived from population genetic theory based on differences in the fecundity and dispersal potential for each species. We discovered that Octopus bimaculoides with low fecundity and direct development (without a planktonic phase) had lower average effective population size and genetic diversity, but higher levels of kinship, population structure, and richness of private alleles, than the other two species. These features indicated limited dispersal and high local recruitment. In contrast, O. bimaculatus and O. hubbsorum with higher fecundity and planktonic phase as paralarvae had higher effective population size and genetic diversity, and overall lower kinship and population structure than O. bimaculoides. These observations supported higher levels of gene flow over a larger geographical scale. O. bimaculatus with the longest planktonic paralarval duration and therefore larger dispersal potential had differences in the calculated parameters possibly associated with increased connectivity. We propose O. bimaculoides is more susceptible to over exploitation of small, isolated populations and could have longer recovery times than the other two species. This species may benefit from distinct fishery management within each local population. O. bimaculatus and O. hubbsorum may benefit from fishery management that takes into account metapopulation structure over larger geographic scales and the directionality and magnitude of larval dispersal driven by ocean currents and population connectivity among individuals of each locality. The distribution of each species and variations in their reproductive phenology is also important to consider when establishing marine reserves or seasonal fishing closures. © 2018 Domínguez-Contreras et al.",,,,2,2018,,PeerJ,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: PeerJ Inc.,,,,adult; article; Baja California; effective population size; Fecundity; fertility; fishery management; fishing; gene flow; gene frequency; genetic variability; Gulf of California; human; life history; Marine connectivity; metapopulation; microsatellite marker; mitochondrial gene; nonhuman; ocean current; Octopus; Octopus (genus); Paralarval dispersal; phenology; Planktonic paralarval duration; population dynamics; seashore,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Due to incomplete species inventories, species distribution models (SDMs) are often used for predicting species’ habitat suitability and species’ probability of occurrence. Currently, SDMs mostly ignore spatial dependencies in species and predictor data. Here, we provide a comparative evaluation of how accounting for spatial dependencies, that is, autocorrelation, affects the delineation of optimized protected areas. Location: Southeast Australia, Southeast U.S. Continental Shelf, Danube River Basin. Methods: We employ Bayesian spatially explicit and non-spatial SDMs for terrestrial, marine and freshwater species, using realm-specific planning unit shapes (grid, hexagon and subcatchment, respectively). We then apply the software gurobi to optimize conservation plans based on species targets derived from spatial and non-spatial SDMs (10%–50% each to analyse sensitivity), and compare the delineation of the plans. Results: Across realms and irrespective of the planning unit shape, spatially explicit SDMs (a) produce on average more accurate predictions in terms of AUC, TSS, sensitivity and specificity, along with a higher species detection probability. All spatial optimizations meet the species conservation targets. Spatial conservation plans that use predictions from spatially explicit SDMs (b) are spatially substantially different compared to those that use non-spatial SDM predictions, but (c) encompass a similar amount of planning units. The overlap in the selection of planning units is smallest for conservation plans based on the lowest targets and vice versa. Main conclusions: Species distribution models are core tools in conservation planning. Not surprisingly, accounting for the spatial characteristics in SDMs has drastic impacts on the delineation of optimized conservation plans. We therefore encourage practitioners to consider spatial dependencies in conservation features to improve the spatial representation of future protected areas. © 2019 The Authors.

This reserve comprises a set of temporary lakes, often saline, where water level fluctuates seasonally. Water inflows come mainly from direct precipitation and runoffof small lake watersheds. Most of these lakes lack surface outlets and behave as endorheic systems, where water withdrawal is mainly due to evaporation, causing salt accumulation in the lake beds. Remote sensing was used to estimate the temporal variation of the flooded area in these lakes and their associated hydrological patterns related to the seasonality of precipitation and evapotranspiration. Landsat 7 ETM+ satellite images for the reference period 2013-2015 were jointly used with ground-truth datasets. Several inverse modeling methods, such as two-band and multispectral indices, single-band threshold, classification methods, artificial neural network, support vector machine and genetic programming, were applied to retrieve information on the variation of the flooded areas. Results were compared to ground-truth data, and the classification errors were evaluated by means of the kappa coefficient. Comparative analyses demonstrated that the genetic programming approach yielded the best results, with a kappa value of 0.98 and a total error of omission-commission of 2%. The dependence of the variations in the water-covered area on precipitation and evaporation was also investigated. The results show the potential of the tested techniques to monitor the hydrological patterns of temporary lakes in semiarid areas, which might be useful for management strategy-linked lake conservation and specifically to accomplish the goals of both the European Water Framework Directive and the Habitats Directive. © 2016 by the authors.",,,,8,8,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI AG,,,,Biospherics; Classification (of information); Classification methods; DELINEATION; DELTA; DIFFERENCE WATER INDEX; EAST; Environmental regulations; European Water Framework Directive; Evaporation; Evapotranspiration; Floods; Genetic algorithms; genetic programming; Genetic programming; hydrological patterns; Hydrological patterns; Inverse modeling methods; Inverse problems; Lakes; Landsat 7; LandSat 7; Learning systems; Machine learning models; multispectral indices; Multispectral indices; NDWI; Neural networks; QUALITY; remote sensing; Remote sensing; Saline water; SATELLITE IMAGERY; temporary lakes; Temporary lakes; Water conservation; Water cover; water cover detection; Water cover detection; Water levels; Water supply,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Furthermore 582 plant species are also inventoried, 17 of them are endemic and 3 (belonging to the Limonium genus) have nearly a limited distribution in this area of Alicante. The final evaluation of the cartographic units obtained may guide the regulation of the activities in this territory, trying to preserve the units with major interest and under higher degree of threat. This approach may lead to the development of a group of measures and actions that allow the regeneration of the units degraded and with good potential in a compatible manner with the rest of uses.",,55-66,,2 SUPPL. 1,48,,Fitosociologia,Evaluación de la vegetación en un área del litoral mediterráneo en Alicante (Espańa),,,,,,,Spanish,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Alicante; cartography; Coast vegetation; coastal zone; Conservation; developmental biology; dominance; endemic species; GIS; Habitats directive; legislative implementation; Limonium; Mediterranean Region; nature conservation; population distribution; protected area; regeneration; territory; vegetation structure; wetland,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Their goal is to improve the environment and circumstances for the production of reproductive surplus in fisheries through maintaining habitats, ecosystem processes, and biodiversity. However, while concepts of ecosystem processes and biodiversity are laudable, they provide little if any guidance for management actions meant to sustain them. Difficulties in implementation are partly due to lack of information, understanding, and communication of ecosystem concepts among scientists, managers, and fishers. Here, we describe indices whose function is to report progress towards desired ecosystem outcomes recognizable to society at large. One such outcome is the extent to which management reverses shifts from long-lived to short-lived organisms, from mature to immature individuals, and from higher to lower trophic levels. Several generic indices incorporating this and other elements of habitat protection embracing ecological concepts of 'representativeness,' 'successional stage,' 'alternate states,' and 'conservation status' are proposed for marine protected area selection and for monitoring trends in the large marine ecosystems of which fisheries are a part.

Zoning and limitations to access are options to reduce harm done by recreationalists in ecologically sensitive areas, but little is known about the economic impact of these management options. In this paper the contingent behaviour model (CBM) is used to estimate the change in recreational value of a protected coastal site after the implementation of a new zoning plan, which limits access to some areas. Unusually for a CBM, the alternative scenario presented to the recreationalists is an actual, rather than a hypothetical, change. Recreational value is predicted to decrease by €4.96 per annum per user, which is a small fraction of the total value. Results indicate that limiting access to sensitive ecosystems through zoning in protected areas can be done without economically significant reductions in site value. © 2024 The Author(s).

For the first time on the territory of AR, studies of the adaptive capabilities of the species and genetic differentiation using ISSR markers were carried out in seven cenopopulations (CP) of R. rosea in 2018 and 2020. The research was founded on the notion of conducting a comparative analysis of the morphogenetic structure of Rhodiola rosea populations in various ecological and geographical conditions of AR. The aim of this work is to evaluate the variability of morphometric traits of sexually mature living female R. rosea plants and to conduct a comparative analysis of genetic variability in cenopopulations (CP) both under undisturbed conditions and under stressful conditions of anthropogenic impact (grazing). Of the 8 primers used, HB12 turned out to be the most informative. The percentage of polymorphic loci in the populations between 0 and 88%. Two populations, located in favorable conditions at relatively low absolute altitudes (2000 m above sea level) (masl) in the undisturbed habitats of the Katun and Altai reserves of AR, were characterized by higher polymorphism. The share of polymorphic loci reached 80%. According to the analysis of statistical data, the highest values of morphometric parameters of the aerial parts of R. rosea plants and the highest potential seed productivity were also recorded in these habitats. Representatives of two high-mountain CPs (2400–2500 masl) in the Sailyugemsky National Park (SNP) were characterized by the lowest genetic polymorphism. Their genetic structure is the most homogeneous, since we have not found polymorphic loci. Due to spatial isolation, these individuals are reliably genetically differentiated. In addition, individuals of one type were subjected to stressful anthropogenic impact (grazing). Therefore, the smallest sizes and lowest potential seed productivity were recorded. Our research shows that alpine populations of R. rosea in AR, under conditions of anthropogenic stress, need protection for their gene pool. © 2023 by the authors.",,,,20,24,,Int. J. Mol.

As pollution can affect biomes, especially estuaries where intensive ecological and human activities occur, has caused widespread concern. This work aimed to study the water quality of the Jundiaí/Potengi Estuary (JPE) in an area close to the discharge of treated and untreated wastewater for 18 months. Physicochemical and microbiological parameters were measured and integrated using the Water Quality Index of the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment. Ecotoxicological tests were performed with Brazilian endemic organisms to assess the impact of water pollution on biota. A generalized linear regression model was applied to understand the effects of water quality on ecotoxicological responses. Concentrations of metals, dissolved oxygen, total ammonia nitrogen, nitrate, and thermotolerant coliforms did not comply with Brazilian environmental regulations. A significant increase in the mortality rate of Mysidopsis juniae and Nitocra sp. and a significant decrease in the reproductive rate of Nitocra sp. indicated the most affected areas related to the discharge of treated and untreated wastewater. Only 10% of the samples from sites without direct wastewater impact showed a toxic response in at least one organism. Both water quality and sampling sites were statistical predictors of ecotoxicological response, describing not only the pollutant load but also the type of effluent. This study demonstrated the degradation of the environmental quality of the JPE, particularly due to the discharge of sanitary wastewater, and highlights the importance of protection and remediation measures to preserve this protected area. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,,,12,194,,Environ.

Theoretical framework: Originating from the need to create legal norms to protect and conserve the environment and natural heritage, Environmental Law has become effective in preventing the uncontrolled advance of the means of production and occupation of protected areas. Method/design/approach: A Systematic Literature Review was carried out, following stages and criteria: (1) research objective; (2) research question; (3) sources of information; (4) search strategy; (5) strategy for selecting publications; (6) quality criteria; (7) criteria for including and excluding publications; (8) criteria for extracting data; (9) strategy for synthesizing data; (10) description and publication. Results and conclusion: The findings of the research indicate the indispensability of Environmental Law for the protection of the natural environment, and the relevance of environmental legal protection for the legal regulation of environmental impacts caused to natural heritage, especially the implementation, conceptualization of specific and dangerous crimes and infractions, and the penalties for each. Research implications: The analysis of the contribution of environmental law is essential as a diagnosis of the state of conservation and the capacity to mitigate anthropogenic impacts on the paleoecosystems of the Săo Francisco River.

The Guaibim Coastal Plain Environmental Protection Area (APA of Guaibim), Bahia, is considereda Priority Area for Conservation, and thus, the objective is to provide the first panorama of the quality of estuarine waters of the APA. Samples were collected in the lower estuary of Guaibinzinho, Mamucabo and Taquary for six months. pH, conductivi ty, salinity, dissolved oxygen, oxygen saturation, total phosphorus, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, chlorophyll and thermotolerant coliforms were analyzed. The three were classified as saline class 1 by Resolution CONAMA 357/05. Dissolved oxygen was outside the established by the Resolution in the three areas; in Taquary, nitrate was 64 times higher than allowed in july/2022; ammonia exceeded the limits only in july/2022 for all estuaries. Only the Guaibinzinho was outside the limits of thermotolerant coliforms for saline water class 1. Mamucabo was classified as mesotrophic, Taquary eutrophic and Guaibinzinho as oligotrophic. As for Balneability, only Taquary was considered as its own. It is recommended not to use Guaibinzinho for fishing activity and Balneability and Mamucabo for Balneability, due to the imminent risk to public health, since the density of thermotolerant coliforms exceeds the limits of Resolutions CONAMA 357/05 and 274/00.

Important to this undertaking is knowledge of the distribution of benthic assemblages. Here, our aim is to identify the areas where benthic marine assemblages are likely to differ from each other in the Southern Ocean including near-shore Antarctica. We achieve this by using a hierarchical spatial classification of ecoregions, bathomes and environmental types. Ecoregions are defined according to available data on biogeographic patterns and environmental drivers on dispersal. Bathomes are identified according to depth strata defined by species distributions. Environmental types are uniquely classified according to the geomorphic features found within the bathomes in each ecoregion. We identified 23 ecoregions and nine bathomes. From a set of 28 types of geomorphic features of the seabed, 562 unique environmental types were classified for the Southern Ocean. We applied the environmental types as surrogates of different assemblages of biodiversity to assess the representativeness of existing MPAs. We found that 12 ecoregions are not represented in MPAs and that no ecoregion has their full range of environmental types represented in MPAs. Current MPA planning processes, if implemented, will substantially increase the representation of environmental types particularly within 8 ecoregions. To meet internationally agreed conservation goals, additional MPAs will be needed. To assist with this process, we identified 107 spatially restricted environmental types, which should be considered for inclusion in future MPAs.

Following this perspective of conservation, the goal of this contribution is to analyze the significance of three tree taxa populations in three areas of Argentina. Methods: Ethnobotanical and historical ethnobotany methodology have been used. Results: The Quebrada peach (Prunus persica), early introduced to Jujuy province, assimilated into local crops, and considered as part of local identity. Various citrus (Citrus spp.), also introduced early on by the Jesuits, and highly valued by the locals in Misiones, but rejected in the management of protected areas due to their wild-type and exotic nature-. The tala (Celtis tala), native to the Río de la Plata coastal area, where it lends its name to a particular forest formation, which is often overexploited, and is the focus for the establishment of protected areas.

The idea was initially stimulated by international and national interest in developing marine protected areas, e.g., the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park. More recent attention has been placed on managing the multiple use of marine space, especially in areas where conflicts among users and the environment are already clear, e.g., in the North Sea. Even more recent concern has focused on the need to conserve nature, especially ecologically and biologically sensitive areas, in the context of multi-use planning of ocean space. Despite academic discussions and the fact that some countries already have started implementation, the scope of MSP has not been clearly defined. Terms such as integrated management, marine spatial management, and ocean zoning are all used inconsistently. This is one of the reasons why its importance is not more seriously reflected at the levels of policy and decision-making in most countries. This article attempts to deal with this problem. It describes why MSP is an essential step to achieve ecosystem-based sea use management, how it can be defined and what its core objectives are.

The case of the conservation of coastal wetlands in Ghana (from 1993 to 1999) is utilised in developing a 'community conservation interface' (CCI) model for the active participation of local communities. The ethical basis of the model is to promote accountability, transparency and responsibility throughout a project's planning and implementation process. Additionally, the CCI model seeks to provide a forum, the CCI seat, for resolving conflicts, developing further partnership and building capacity. It is a decision-making model that is applicable to community-based conservation and partnerships in protected area management. As an adaptive management initiative built on the concept of community conservation, the model is vital for decision-making forums for managing biodiversity at a broad-scale level.

The aim of this project is to develop a working tool to carry out comprehensive broad scale mapping surveys of sublittoral habitats and communities (or biotopes). Reliable marine benthic information, at a suitable level of detail, is required by SNH in its work in conservation management of coastal ecosystems. Increasingly it is required to assist with the implementation of the EC Habitats Directive through the identification, designation, management and monitoring of Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) and for the protection of threatened species. The work to date has developed a survey strategy which employs a basic, low-cost acoustic system to produce maps, ground-truthed using a variety of techniques. The maps provide an estimation of the geographical distribution and extent of the biological resources in the survey area. The current paper provides a review of the areas covered to date and some examples of the use this information, in particular the resource maps, has been put to by SNH to support environmental management. © 1999 Taylor & Francis Ltd.",,585-592,,3,20,,Int.

The R package prior3D is an open-source tool designed for prioritizing conservation efforts across different depth zones in a unified framework. Starting from the deepest zone and moving upwards, it optimizes conservation priorities and allows flexible allocation of protection levels per depth.

Prioritizing areas for future protected area networks is thus an urgent task in such urbanization-threatened ecosystems. Our aim is to quantify past and future losses of coastal vegetation priority areas due to urbanization and assess the effectiveness of the existing protected area network for conservation. We conduct a prioritization analysis, based on 82 coastal plants, including common and IUCN red list species, in a highly-urbanized but biotically diverse region, in South-Eastern France. We evaluate the role of protected areas, by taking into account both strict and multi-use areas. We assess the impact of past and future urbanization on high priority areas, by combining prioritization analyses and urbanization models. We show that half of the highly diverse areas have already been lost due to urbanization. Remaining top priority areas are also among the most exposed to future urban expansion. The effectiveness of the existing protected area (PA) network is only partial. While strict PAs coincide well with top priority areas, they only represent less than one third of priority areas. The effectiveness of multi-use PAs, such as the Natura 2000 network, also remains limited. Our approach highlights the impact of urbanization on plant conservation targets. By modelling urbanization, we manage to identify those areas where protection could be more efficient to limit further losses. We suggest to use our approach in the future to expand the PA network in order to achieve the 2020 Aichi biodiversity targets. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,425-434,,,201,,J. Environ.

The three-dimensionality of marine life and ecosystems is an inherent element of complexity for setting spatial conservation plans. Yet, the confidence of any recommendation largely depends on shifting climate, which triggers a global redistribution of biodiversity, suggesting the inclusion of time as a fourth dimension. Here, we developed a depth-specific prioritization analysis to inform the design of protected areas, further including metrics of climate-driven changes in the ocean. Climate change was captured in this analysis by considering the projected future distribution of >2000 benthic and pelagic species inhabiting the Mediterranean Sea, combined with climatic stability and heterogeneity metrics of the seascape. We identified important areas based on both biological and climatic criteria, where conservation focus should be given in priority when designing a three-dimensional, climate-smart protected area network. We detected spatially concise, conservation priority areas, distributed around the basin, that protected marine areas almost equally across all depth zones. Our approach highlights the importance of deep sea zones as priority areas to meet conservation targets for future marine biodiversity, while suggesting that spatial prioritization schemes, that focus on a static two-dimensional distribution of biodiversity data, might fail to englobe both the vertical properties of species distributions and the fine and larger-scale impacts associated with climate change. © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,4577-4588,,15,28,,Global Change Biol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: John Wiley and Sons Inc,,,,biodiversity; Biodiversity; climate analogs; climate change; Climate Change; climate change refugia; climate-smart networks; connectivity; Conservation of Natural Resources; conservation planning; ecosystem; Ecosystem; environmental protection; HABITAT; marine environment; Mediterranean Sea; nature conservation; prioritization; procedures; PROTECTED AREAS; RANGE; refugium; Refugium; RESERVE NETWORKS; SITES; SPECIES RICHNESS; systematic conservation planning; vertical connectivity,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We investigated the vertical and horizontal distributions of ? and ? taxonomic (TD), functional (FD) and phylogenetic diversity (PD) in a three-dimensional structured ecosystem. We focused on the Mediterranean coralligenous assemblages which form complex structures both vertically and horizontally, and are considered as the most diverse and threatened communities of the Mediterranean Sea. Although comparable to tropical reef assemblages in terms of richness, biomass and production, coralligenous assemblages are less known and more rarely studied, in particular because of their location in deep waters. Our study covers the entire range of distribution of coralligenous habitats along the French Mediterranean coasts, representing the most complete database so far developed for this important ecosystem. To our knowledge, this is the first analysis of spatial diversity patterns of marine biodiversity on both horizontal and vertical scales. Our study revealed that taxonomic diversity differed from functional and phylogenetic diversity patterns at the station level, the latter two being strongly structured by depth, with shallower stations generally richer than deeper ones. Considering all stations, phylogenetic diversity was less congruent to taxonomic diversity (Pearson's correlation of r = 0.48) but more congruent to functional diversity (r = 0.69) than randomly expected. Similar congruence patterns were revealed for stations deeper than 50 m (r = 0.44 and r = 0.84, respectively) but no significantly different congruence level than randomly expected was revealed among diversity facets for more shallow stations. Mean functional ?- and ?-diversity were lower than phylogenetic diversity and even lower than taxonomic ?- and ?-diversity for both vertical and horizontal scales. Low FD and PD values at both ?- and ?-diversity indicated functional and phylogenetic clustering. Community dissimilarities (?-diversity) increased over depth especially in central and eastern part of the French Mediterranean littoral and in northern Corsica, indicating coralligenous vertical structure within these regions. Overall horizontal ?-diversity was higher within the 50-70 m depth belts. We conclude that taxonomic diversity alone is inadequate as a basis for setting conservation goals for this ecosystem and additional information, at least on phylogenetic diversity, is needed to preserve the ecosystem functioning and coralligenous evolutionary history. Our results highlight the necessity of considering different depth belts as a basis for regional scale conservation efforts. Current conservation approaches, such as the existing marine protected areas, are insufficient in preserving coralligenous habitats. The use of multi-facet indices should be considered, focusing on preserving local diversity patterns and compositional dissimilarities, both vertically and horizontally. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,1042-1054,,,61,,Ecol.

The endangered Southern Resident population of killer whales (Orcinus orca) that inhabits the transboundary Salish Sea in Canada and the USA are affected by noise pollution. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and spatial multicriteria evaluation (MCE) methods have been used to operationalize suitability analysis in ecology and conservation for site selection problems. However, commonly used methods lack the ability to represent complex logical relationships between input criteria. Therefore, the objective of this study is to apply a more advanced MCE method, known as Logic Scoring of Preference (LSP), to identify acoustic refugia for killer whales in the Salish Sea. This GIS-based LSP-MCE approach considers multiple input criteria by combining input data representing killer whale habitat requirements with noise pollution and other factors to identify suitable acoustic refugia. The results indicate the locations of suitable acoustic refugia and how they are affected by noise pollution from marine vessels in three scenarios developed to represent different levels of vessel traffic. Identifying acoustic refugia can contribute to efforts to reduce the effect of marine noise pollution on killer whale populations by highlighting high-priority areas in which to implement policies such as traffic-limiting measures or marine protected areas. Moreover, the proposed LSP-MCE procedure combines criteria in a stepwise manner that can support environmental management decision-making processes and can be applied to other marine suitability analysis contexts. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.",,262-278,,2,68,,Environ.

Globally, livestock outbreaks have declined but in Africa significant outbreaks continue to occur with most countries still categorized as enzootic, hyper endemic or sporadic. Uganda experiences sporadic human and livestock cases. Severe large-scale outbreaks occur periodically in hippos (Hippopotamus amphibious) at Queen Elizabeth Protected Area, where in 2004/2005 and 2010 anthrax killed 437 hippos. Ecological drivers of these outbreaks and potential of hippos to maintain anthrax in the ecosystem remain unknown. This study aimed to describe spatio-temporal patterns of anthrax among hippos; examine significant trends associated with case distributions; and generate hypotheses for investigation of ecological drivers of anthrax. Methods Spatio-temporal patterns of 317 hippo cases in 2004/5 and 137 in 2010 were analyzed. QGIS was used to examine case distributions; Spearman’s nonparametric tests to determine correlations between cases and at-risk hippo populations; permutation models of the spatial scan statistics to examine spatio-temporal clustering of cases; directional tests to determine directionality in epidemic movements; and standard epidemic curves to determine patterns of epidemic propagation. Key findings Results showed hippopotamus cases extensively distributed along water shorelines with strong positive correlations (p<0.01) between cases and at-risk populations. Significant (p<0.001) spatio-temporal clustering of cases occurred throughout the epidemics, pointing towards a defined source. Significant directional epidemic spread was detected along water flow gradient (206.6) in 2004/5 and against flow gradient (20.4) in 2010. Temporal distributions showed clustered pulsed epidemic waves. Conclusion These findings suggest mixed point-source propagated pattern of epidemic spread amongst hippos and points to likelihood of indirect spread of anthrax spores between hippos mediated by their social behaviour, forces of water flow, and persistent presence of infectious carcasses amidst schools. This information sheds light on the epidemiology of anthrax in highly social wildlife, can help drive insight into disease control, wildlife conservation, and tourism management, but highlights the need for analytical and longitudinal studies aimed at clarifying the hypotheses. © This is an open access article, free of all copyright, and may be freely reproduced, distributed, transmitted, modified, built upon, or otherwise used by anyone for any lawful purpose.

Distinguishing MPAs based on their protection levels has shown advantages, but the availability of regulatory information about allowed activities is a major roadblock towards completing assessments at scale. Here, using a California case study, we explore assigning MPA protection levels following the regulation-based classification system (RBCS) under different scenarios of incomplete regulatory information. In the first group of scenarios (A), only readily available information was used, i.e., information contained in direct MPA implementing regulations and management plans. In the second group (B), information was limited to the activities in ProtectedSeas’ Navigator that matched those in the RBCS. From group A, 99% and 100% correct classification of fully and highly protected areas, respectively, were obtained when treating unknown aquaculture, bottom exploitation, and bottom extraction as ‘prohibited’ and boating, anchoring, and fishing activities as ‘allowed’. High classification accuracy was also obtained for moderately, poorly, and unprotected areas. From group B, 92% and 94% correct classification of fully and highly protected areas were obtained when using the same assumptions for non-fishing activities but using Navigator's Level of Fishing Protection (LFP) score to guide assumptions about unknown fishing activities. Correct classification rates were poorer with different assumptions. Regulation-based MPA evaluation systems can reliably identify fully and highly protected areas in the face of unknown information, when assumptions about unknown information are guided by contextual indicators such as generally regulated human activities and/or overall level of fishing restriction. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,148,,Mar.

More monitoring and research are needed to better inform land managers tasked with both managing for biodiversity and managing the threat of bushfires. Aims: To document changes in the activity of native and introduced mammal species in response to planned burns in a small, isolated woodland reserve in Tasmania. Methods: Over a 10-year period, mammal activity was monitored before and after two separate moderate-intensity planned burns in 20-ha management blocks and in unburnt blocks of similar size by using live-trapping and camera-trapping. Vegetation density was monitored concurrently, and we also searched burnt areas for animals killed by fire. Key results: The activity of most mammal populations was largely unaffected by the two planned burns. However, during one of the burns, over 20 rufous-bellied pademelons were directly killed as a result of a need to conduct a backburn. The population recovered after 3 years. The activity of red-necked wallabies, common brushtail possums and short-beaked echidnas generally increased across the whole study area during the 10-year monitoring period. Limited evidence suggests that eastern barred bandicoot and European rabbit activity increased after fire. No swamp rat activity was recorded in burnt areas following the planned burns. Unexpectedly they did not recolonise burnt areas and also ceased to be active in control areas for the last 3 years of the study we hypothesise that this may be due to the increased dryness and thinning of vegetation. Conclusions: We found that most of the mammal populations within this small, isolated reserve were resilient to the planned burning program, with no or limited short-term effect for all but one species. The absence of swamp rats from burnt or unburnt areas for the last 3 years of our study suggests that factors other than fire are also affecting this species.

A crucial step in the SCP process is to set conservation targets for biodiversity features (explicit goals that quantify the minimum amount of each biodiversity feature to be covered by the protected areas). When the biodiversity features are different habitats occurring in the planning region, a relevant approach, based on the Species-Area Relationship (SAR), defines targets so as to maximize biodiversity representation within each habitat type. While many formulations of the SAR exist, their application remains dominated by the log-transformation of Power-law model. However, documented habitat-related and taxonomic idiosyncrasies in the shape of the SAR question the effectiveness of a given ubiquitous model in fitting data compared to others. Here, using 13 SAR functional forms, we investigate whether the habitat-related SAR uncertainties propagate across the entire conservation planning process and lead to both divergent conservation targets and conservation solutions for six habitats in the Mediterranean sea. Results revealed uncertainties in model selection across habitats, which leads to different SAR habitat-targets. Constraining a systemic conservation planning tool (Marxan) with those targets provided contrasted sets of priority areas for different SAR scenario. Our study demonstrated that restraining to one particular SAR model is inappropriate at fitting all SAR datasets, providing consequently conservation targets diverging markedly from data-driven SAR inferences. More importantly, corresponding reserve networks are either inefficient or overstated for the protection of habitats, leading to waste of scarce conservation resources that should be used sparingly. Therefore, we suggest to evaluate different SAR models and, when appropriate to carry out a multi-model inference to provide robust habitat-specific conservation targets. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,279-289,,,235,,Biol.

The recently established coastal dune Natura 2000 network in the Italian Adriatic coast aims at protecting dune habitats diversity, yet its capacity to provide other ecosystem services, and the potential trade-offs with biodiversity provision have so far not been evaluated. In this paper we conduct this analysis for a key ecosystem service: carbon storage and sequestration. We i) quantify soil carbon stocks and sequestration within four coastal dune EU habitat types along the Adriatic Natura 2000 network; ii) upscale these data to create an inventory of carbon stocks for all dune Natura 2000 sites in the study area; iii) collate biodiversity data of the selected EU habitat types using plant diversity measures as surrogates of coastal dune biodiversity and iv) explore the trade-offs between carbon storage and biodiversity value for the selected habitats. Italian Adriatic coastal dune Natura 2000 sites sequester 4998 t of CO2e per year, with the majority in wooded dunes. Wooded dunes showed significantly higher soil carbon density than the other dune habitats, and had a much greater area, but they were characterized by lower species richness. By contrast, the endangered fixed dunes, which survive in few residual patches along the study area, showed the highest plant diversity for both total species richness and dune focal species, but had a much lower carbon density and extent. Although further analyses of additional services would be desirable for a more comprehensive assessment, these findings suggest that conservation actions should favor restoration of the natural dune zonation, since it guarantees both dune species diversity and carbon storage. The carbon stocks and EU habitat type extents produced in this study constitute the first systematic inventory for dune systems in the Mediterranean. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,127-136,,,75,,Appl.

In this paper we aimed to evaluate the multi-service nature of ecosystem services (ES) supply in the dunes of the Italian Adriatic coast within Natura 2000 (N2K) sites. We i) identified ES indicators and assessed the supply capacity (Climate regulation, Protection from wind and aerosol, Erosion regulation, Recreation and Tourism and Existence value of biodiversity) of natural dune ecosystems of European conservation concern; ii) upscaled this data to create an inventory of ES supply for all dune N2K sites in the study area; iii) explored the trade-offs among ES; and iv) summarized and spatially compared the overall multi-service value of the N2K sites. The study provides a method for quantifying the role of N2K sites in supplying benefits for our society. We found that the multi-service capacity of coastal dunes is uneven within sites and within administrative regions. This variability is related to both ecological (e.g. distribution, ecological integrity, extent and conservation status of dune habitats) and administrative (e.g. local implementation of the Habitats Directive) characteristics of the analysed area. ES are not coupled as several sites with high values for one ES show very low values for others. The results suggest that conservation actions should favour restoration of the natural dune zonation, since this underpins multi-service ES supply. The approach can distinguish regions with high ES values and regions where the paucity of protected areas represents a gap in ES supply, fact that offers an incentive to enhance the protection strategy but also suggests an urgent need to improve the N2K network by enlarging existent sites and including new ones. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.",,1139-1155,,,668,,Sci.

Most of the studies on predator–prey relationships between the Black-browed albatross (Thalassarche melanophrys) and other predators like raptors, were carried out in breeding colonies located in oceanic and highly isolated areas, such as Antarctic islands. However, breeding colonies located in the Sub-Antarctic fjords have not been studied. The geographical position of the study colony makes it susceptible to a wider spectrum of predators than the oceanic islands. Therefore, it is unknown how predation dynamics affect the reproductive success of this species. Here, we show for the first time the identity and activity of avian native predators on the colony in the inner waters of southern Tierra del Fuego, Chile. This study covered seventeen field visits between 2017 and 2020 to monitor the reproductive activity of this colony. In this study, we identified the interaction between predators, the breeding activity and success of albatrosses using direct census and camera traps. Across the study, the number of breeding pairs ranged from 64 (2017) to three (2019) breeding pairs of the Black-browed albatross. Terrestrial birds with occurrence on the colony were the Andean condor, Southern caracara, Chimango caracara and the Turkey vulture. Our results showed that the main avian predator species affecting the breeding success of the Black-browed albatross, were both the Andean condor and the Southern caracara. The Black-browed albatross is a conservation target in this area since of the colony of Islote Albatros is currently part of the Seno Almirantazgo Marine protected area. Therefore, baseline informations on species interactions are fundamental for its management particularly when native predators like the Andean condor are also threatened species globally. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,77-85,,1,46,,Polar Biol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH,,,,Albatross; Andean Condor; breeding population; breeding season; Breeding season; Chile; DENSITY; ISLAND; Marine protected area; predator; protected area; raptor; reproductive success; seabird; SEABIRDS; species conservation; Sub-Antarctic islet; SUCCESS; Tierra del Fuego [(ISG) South America],,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In this study we evaluated the current zoning plan for its capacity to protect marine turtles from commercial trawling and netting activities at nesting sites and at inshore and offshore foraging areas to assess whether the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority met their obligations under the Representative Areas Program (RAP). We found that protection from commercial fisheries increased within 5- and 10-km buffer zones of all very-high, high- and medium-priority nesting sites that were previously less than 100% protected. However, three very-high-priority sites and six high-priority sites remain less than 100% protected out to 5 km, falling short of the objectives of the RAP. There were variable increases in protection at foraging areas; however, each of them increased in the proportion of area protected from commercial fishing, fulfilling the objectives of the RAP. By using a broader-scale fisheries by-catch dataset as a proxy for turtle abundance we found that improvements in protection are not species-specific and can be attributed to the step-wise increases in protection since the mid 1990s. © CSIRO 2008.",,477-485,,5,35,,Wildl.

The length of this new 380 kV link is 47 km, which is one of the largest new overhead power lines for the last two decades. Although the connection was optimised to minimise the environmental impact it was hard to gain acceptance for the project. This is caused by the dense population and a dispersed urbanisation pattern. Locally the collision of habitation, protected landscape and a bird protection area play a major role. The authorisation process of this overhead line project was launched in the beginning of 2009 and will last at least up to mid 2014. There is mandatory participation (""consultation"" ) integrated in the procedures. Four main stages can be identified, each with a specific goal and scope concerning participation: SEA, land-use planning, EIA, permitting procedures. Additional actions of ""information"" and ""consensus building"" were taken. These were different for each type of stakeholder. The need for the project is not contested because of the drivers which are easy to comprehend. The most comprehensible and attractive driver is the off shore production by windmills. The major point of contestation during the consultation for the SEA was the routing of the overhead line. The uncertainties regarding possible long-term health effects of EMF cause a high level of fear and the uncertainty on the quantitative impact of overhead lines on birds makes Special Protection Areas in Flanders a no-go zone for overhead lines. As a result of the public participation a large number of additional alternatives had to be evaluated in the SEA, including alternatives with a much higher cost and technical risk. The ""preliminary approved"" land-use plan, as decided by the government, did not selected the optimal route. On the contrary, the selected route crosses the SPA by means of an underground cable connection of about 10 km. This doubles the total cost of the project and reduces the reliability of the connection. Nearly 2000 remarks were received during the public participation period. The consequences of these remarks are still unclear at the moment. Despite large efforts in providing extra and extensive information, the consultation and consensus building has only clearly benefitted at the regional administrative level and the highest political level regarding the necessity of the project. At the local level it is unclear whether the efforts have paid off.",,,,,,,,,,,,,CIGRE,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Int. Conf. Large High Voltage Electr.

However, as one of the regions with the highest marine shark species richness, there is still a limited understanding of shark diversity patterns and conservation needs in China and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) seas. In this study, we applied an ensemble species distribution model of five algorithms to investigate the diversity distribution patterns of 149 shark species in China and the ASEAN seas for the first time. A systematic conservation planning approach involving diversity, scarcity, and biogeographical distinctiveness was used to identify and compare conservation priority settings. Our results showed that bathymetry and dissolved oxygen were the most important variables contributing to shark distribution. The distribution pattern of shark species richness peaked on the continental shelves at 22–26°N, and a hotspot of shark diversity was identified around the Taiwan Strait. The spatial distribution of shark species in the nine orders and the 72 threatened shark species varied considerably. The existing marine protected area network only protects 2.1% of the ocean, 32.9% of the shark species, and 43.1% of the threatened species, highlighting a substantial conservation gap. Among the conservation priorities identified, the high conservation target scenario (30%) protects only 10%–15% more species than the low conservation target scenario (10%). However, under the high conservation target scenario, the conservation range of species tripled. Our results show that low conservation targets were only suitable for addressing the number of protected species, and that high targets would bring about improved outcomes for the number of protected species and the protected range of threatened species. Furthermore, planned priorities with a large clump pattern had slightly higher conservation achievements than those with small clumps. The results of this study will contribute to the development of a priority area network for sharks and provide a scientific basis for shark conservation and management in the China and ASEAN seas.

Furthermore, ontogenetic shift has an important role in determining fish habitat use (e.g. pelagic vs benthic environments), and consequently, critical implications for conservation. Here, we develop a prioritisation approach to create conservation zones in an estuarine system that considers fishery costs while also integrating pelagic and benthic habitats for different life history stages (from eggs to adults), and multiple conservation objectives. We applied our approach to the whitemouth croaker Micropogonias furnieri in the Patos Lagoon estuary (Brazil) and tested four scenarios based on different objectives, zone types and targets. In this study, we used Marxan and Marxan with Zones and accounted for 41 conservation features (including habitat type, vegetation and seasonal distribution of whitemouth croaker within the estuary). Overall, we found two important results. First, spatial priorities for the no-take and partially protected zones did not change substantially and were very robust to variation in uncertain parameters. Second, an integrated conservation plan with multiple zones requires less area to be designated as no-take zone than a traditional conservation plan with a single zone. A well-designed conservation plan based on multiple life stages may help to ensure the recruitment, persistence and management of important estuarine resources. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,221,,Ocean Coast.

In the specific case of cadmium contamination, it has been the subject of considerable interest in recent years because of its biological effects and it is one of major pollutant in estuarine areas. Ucides cordatus is considered a mangrove local sentinel crab species in Brazil and there are previous studies reporting crab subpopulations living from pristine to heavily metal impacted areas in Săo Paulo coast (Southeastern Brazil). Taking into account the background knowledge about these subpopulations, we proposed the hypothesis that crabs from a highly polluted mangrove (Cubatăo - CUB) have developed biological tolerance to cadmium compared to animals from an Environmental Protected Area (Jureia - JUR). Aiming to verify this hypothesis, we have investigated total bioaccumulation and subcellular partition of Cd, besides biomarkers' responses during a long-term exposure bioassay (28 days, with weekly sampling) using a supposedly safe Cd concentration (0.0022 mg L?1). Specimens from the pristine area (JUR) accumulated higher total Cd, as such as in its biologically active form in gills. Animals living in the polluted site (CUB) presented higher amounts of Cd in the mainly detoxifying tissue (hepatopancreas), which could be considered a pathway leading to tolerance for this metal. Multivariate analysis indicated that bioaccumulation (active, detoxified and total Cd) is linked to geno-cytotoxic damages. CUB subpopulation was considered more tolerant since it presented proportionally less damage and more capacity to allocate Cd in the main detoxifying forms and tissues. © 2019",,768-779,,,687,,Sci.

Consequently, the United Nations World Tourism Organisation and other key role players have been calling for the tourism industry to embrace and localise the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) so as to address some of the concerns and in the process ensure buisness sustainability. However, since the Declaration of 2017 as the Year of Sustainable Tourism, very few studies have reviewed the role of tourism in the localisation of SDGs. Using primary, archival and secondary data, the paper presents an example of how a private nature reserve in the Cape Floral Kingdom (a World Heritage Site) has localised SDGs. The study shows that the Grootbos Foundation, Grootbos Private Nature Reserve has localised 16 SDGs through various initiatives targeting several aspects of business operations, including commerce, conservation, community, and culture. In addition, the study also highlights some critical challenges that are being faced by tourism companies in the localisation of SDGs which calls for greater scientific engagement and research so as to find innovative solutions. The study recommends the replication of the model by similar tourism businesses located near and in protected areas, to ensure tourism sustainability. © 2020, Springer Nature B.V.",,2191-2208,,5,86,,GeoJournal,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH,,,,Business operation; Cape Floristic Region; carbon emission; Carbon emissions; Climate change; Conservation; Critical challenges; Environmental challenges; Environmental protection; Fynbos; global warming; Global warming; Innovative solutions; Leisure industry; marine environment; Marine environment; Marine industry; Marine pollution; nature reserve; Planning; Plastic pollutions; Plastics industry; Sdgs; South africa; South Africa; sustainability; sustainable development; Sustainable development; Sustainable tourism; Tourism; tourism development; tourism market; United Nations,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The need to manage marine resources from ecosystem and large-scale perspectives is recognized, but our partial understanding of oceanic connectivity limits the implementation of globally pertinent conservation planning. Based on a biophysical model for the entire Mediterranean Sea, this study takes an ecosystem approach to connectivity and provides a systematic characterization of broad-scale larval dispersal patterns. It builds on our knowledge of population dynamics and discusses the ecological and management implications. Location: The semi-enclosed Mediterranean Sea and its marine ecosystems are used as a case study to investigate broad-scale connectivity patterns and to relate them to oceanography and population dynamics. Methods: A flow network is constructed by evenly subdividing the basin into sub-regions which are interconnected through the transport of larvae by ocean currents. It allows for the computation of various connectivity metrics required to evaluate larval retention and exchange. Results: Our basin-scale model predicts that retention processes are weak in the open ocean while they are significant in the coastal ocean and are favoured along certain coastlines due to specific oceanographic features. Moreover, we show that wind-driven divergent (convergent, respectively) oceanic regions are systematically characterized by larval sources (sinks, respectively). Finally, although these connectivity metrics have often been studied separately in the literature, we demonstrate they are interrelated under particular conditions. Their integrated analysis facilitates the appraisal of population dynamics, informing both genetic and demographic connectivities. Main conclusions: This modelling framework helps ecologists and geneticists to formulate improved hypotheses of population structures and gene flow patterns and to design their sampling strategy accordingly. It is also useful in the implementation and assessment of future protection strategies, such as coastal and offshore marine reserves, by accounting for large-scale dispersal patterns, a missing component of current ecosystem management. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,503-515,,5,25,,Global Ecol.

In the assessment of millennium targets, there is therefore a need for indicators to measure biodiversity and suitability of habitats for biodiversity both across the whole landscape/seascape and in specific managed habitats. The two predominant land uses in many inhabited areas are forestry and agriculture and these are examined. Many national-level criteria and indicator systems already exist that attempt to assess biodiversity in forests and the impacts of forest management, but there is generally less experience in measuring these values in agricultural landscapes. Existing systems are reviewed, both for their usefulness in providing indicators and to assess the extent to which they have been applied. This preliminary gap analysis is used in the development of a set of indicators suitable for measuring progress towards the conservation of biodiversity in managed forests and agriculture.

Although there are many factors influencing decisions to select and protect particular places, two currently predominate: the desire to preserve the full range of naturally occurring biodiversity and the wish to safeguard places regarded as sacred. While these motives may seem a long way apart, there is in reality a considerable overlap, which manifests practically in terms of management strategies in particular places and philosophically in the worldviews and opinions of the people involved. This chapter summarises research (Dudley et al., 2005) that looks at links between protected areas and sacred lands and waters. Sacred sites and protected areas The contemporary growth in protected areas – such as national parks and wilderness areas – represents what is almost certainly the largest and fastest conscious deliberate change of land use in history. At the dawn of the twentieth century, a handful of national parks had been established, in the US, Australia, Africa and India. By the time of the Fifth World Parks Congress in 2003, over 10% of the world's land surface was under some form of protection, along with a relatively small but rapidly growing area of coastline and ocean (Chape et al., 2003). The speed with which the world's protected area network has grown demonstrates an extraordinary response to recognition that the world is losing biological diversity, but it has not come without cost. In many countries, people, often including the poorest and politically weakest communities, have been dispossessed of their traditional land to make way for protected areas. This, along with a persistent negligence in including socio-cultural-spiritual concerns into conservation strategies, has created social tensions associated with conservation (Colchester, 2003). Additionally, not all the areas that are designated as ‘protected’ are in reality managed as such and many, perhaps most, protected areas face threats that in the long term mean that they continue to lose some of their values (Carey et al., 2000). Modern protected area strategies need to address these issues more effectively, and links with faiths and with some of their traditional conservation methods is one way of achieving this aim. © Cambridge University Press 2012.",,36-45,,,,,,,,,,,Cambridge University Press,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Sacred Species and Sites: Advances in Biocultural Conservation DOI: 10.1017/CBO9781139030717.007,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Such areas are central to conservation, but only if effectively managed and equitably governed. In practice, governments often recognise areas that do not achieve successful outcomes or respect human rights and fail to recognise other effective governance systems. We argue that protected areas and OECMs should only be recognised as fully contributing to 30x30 if they are on track to achieve positive and sustained biodiversity outcomes while respecting human rights. Three principles are important: • Delivery of positive outcomes relating to biodiversity; • Recognition and respect for rights-holders and stakeholders living in or near the area or dependent on its natural resources; and • Meeting human needs through ecosystem services. Four levels in making progress towards Target 3 can be distinguished: 1. Areas that are currently fully effective; 2. Areas that are currently partially effective or on track to being effective; 3. Areas that are currently ineffective due to reversible issues; and 4. Areas that are currently and will continue to be ineffective due to irreversible issues.

But this position overlooks evidence that, for many species, strategically placed smaller reserves are extremely important, especially in areas highly altered by humans. Many countries are reluctant or unable to designate additional large protected areas. We provide evidence that carefully designed support networks of smaller protected areas can be an important complement to activities to reach the Global Biodiversity Framework’s target of 30% of the planet in protected and conserved areas by 2030. We identify seven benefits from small reserves, when correctly located and well-managed: (1) conserving critical habitat of range-limited or relic species; (2) conserving remaining areas of sensitive or threatened habitat in altered ecosystems; (3) conserving habitat for sensitive, time-limited lifecycle stages, such as raptor nesting sites and fish spawning grounds; (4) maintaining and enabling connectivity by providing stepping stones of suitable habitat through inhospitable ecosystems; (5) providing increased protection for critical habitat within Category V protected landscapes and seascapes to boost their overall conservation potential; (6) taking advantage of conservation opportunities at cultural sites, sacred natural sites, and other faith-based sites in transformed landscapes; (7) integrating different management approaches and governance types in a range of connected small reserves to multiply conservation impacts. We propose a typology based on these benefits that can guide steps for policy makers to help plan and monitor small reserves in area-based conservation efforts. Using these principles, the role of small reserves in area-based conservation efforts can be further enhanced. © 2024 by the authors.",,,,4,16,,Diversity,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION; biogeography; connectivity; conservation; Global Biodiversity Framework; HABITAT; LANDSCAPES; management effectiveness; PATCHES; protected area; RETURN; SINGLE LARGE; SIZE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The impact of climate change will vary for different species and habitats, with some at greater risk than others in any given location. Assessments of climate vulnerability are frequently the starting point for adaptation planning but there are a variety of different approaches and it is not clear which is best in different circumstances. Protected areas are core to nature conservation and are the focus of this study. We compare two commonly used approaches, one focused on species, the other on the vegetation which forms the habitats these species utilise, to assess the vulnerability to climate change of Special Protection Areas (SPAs) for birds in England. Our aim was to test whether the two approaches identify the same locations as being of high vulnerability and to inform the prioritisation of adaptation actions. The vulnerability of bird communities varied significantly between protected areas with differing predominant habitat types but there was no simple relationship between vulnerability of habitats and species. Bird communities in upland habitats were most vulnerable, with lower vulnerability found in other habitats and many species potentially able to benefit from climate change. In contrast the habitat vulnerability assessment showed that the upland habitats had relatively low vulnerability, but others, particularly coastal sites were more vulnerable. It is therefore important to develop adaptation strategies based on an understanding of the vulnerability of both the species and their habitats, with different prioritisations in different contexts. SPAs were grouped according to the vulnerability of bird species which they were intended to protect and the broad habitat type. Six broad habitat types were identified; freshwater/wetland, coastal, grassland, heathland, woodland and upland. These groupings were used to help determine which sites are at greatest risk and the type of action that may be required, particularly whether intervention should focus on adaptation for the habitats, the species or both. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,291,,Biol.

Pitcairn itself is the only inhabited island in the group and, before this study, the environmental impact of local fisheries was unclear, with little data to inform conservation and management. In 2014–2015 coastal fish populations were assessed using a mixed methods approach: a newly introduced system of fishers’ catch monitoring and Baited Remote Underwater Video Systems (BRUVS). Thirty-nine BRUVS deployments recorded 88 species in total, with small-bodied herbivores (e.g., Kyphosus pacificus) and mesopredators (e.g., Xanthichthys mento) dominating a “bottom heavy” assemblage. Several large pelagic predators were recorded, but reef-associated predators were rare with only one shark observed. Pitcairn’s top predator assemblage was relatively impoverished compared to global “pristine” sites, including other islands within the Pitcairn group. Top predator scarcity may be explained by local artisanal fisheries, which have historically targeted sharks and other large reef carnivores, and these taxa may not have recovered despite subsequent declines in fishing pressure. The dominant small-bodied species may have proliferated as a result of diminished top predator populations. Subsequent to BRUVS sampling, a local fisheries officer post was created to collate catch data from coastal fishers. Regular returns were obtained from over half of the active fishers (representing approximately 80% of catches), with K. pacificus also dominating catches and the small grouper Epinephelus fasciatus frequently targeted. Thirty fish species were represented in the recorded catch over a 12 month period. Results were shared with the local community, providing a basis for the cooperative design of a Fisheries Management Plan. This plan ensured traditional fisheries could continue in a sustainable manner within Coastal Conservation Zones around each of the four Pitcairn Islands, established within the large, no-take Marine Protected Area designated in 2016, covering the entire Pitcairn Exclusive Economic Zone. Monitoring of Pitcairn’s artisanal fisheries should be continued beyond this one-off study in order to inform adjustment of the Fisheries Management Plan, as the ongoing island fishery may still have consequences for long-term sustainability, particularly for pelagic species caught in coastal waters which remain a significant data gap. © Copyright © 2021 Duffy, Letessier, Koldewey, Dawson and Irving.",,,,,8,,Front.

To date, the literature focussing on “conservation measures” required by the directives has been scarce. This article contributes to a better understanding of associated practices with regard to these measures in the case of France. We put forward a quantitative approach based on 1378 “action-sheets” randomly extracted from 113 management documents of French Natura 2000 coastal sites. These action-sheets are considered to be the physical embodiment of the notion of the conservation measure itself. The analysis concentrates on the “type” of the proposed measures, expressed in terms of a 9-category public policy instrument typology. In terms of frequency of quotation, we show the specific expected importance of three instruments: the work of Natura 2000 project managers, ecological/civil engineering, and data production. Awareness-raising is the main expected means to the end of countering harmful practices and detrimental behaviours. We then propose an exploratory analysis of contextual variables explaining the choice of the type of measure, with an AIC-based procedure of model selection and averaging. The interest of this approach is exemplified by a focus on five explanatory variables reflecting the kind of natural habitats concerned by the measures. Our results show the specificity of instruments associated with coastal habitats. In particular, whereas coastal terrestrial habitats are statistically managed by physical measures (physical regulation and engineering), methods for managing coastal marine habitats are geared towards, on the one hand, awareness raising and participatory approaches, and on the other, regulatory approaches and an integration of Natura 2000 objectives into exogenous institutional frameworks. The results we obtained shed light on the limits and prospects of the implementation of the Natura 2000 program in the marine environment. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,15-27,,,142,,Ocean Coast.

Abundance, density and individual size data were collected by snorkelling along random transect belts located inside and outside the tabu areas, using simple PVC measuring tools specifically developed for participative monitoring. Habitat was assessed using a photographic method to quantitatively describe varied reef substrata. Resource recovery varied between the areas as a result of species-specific responses to contrasted reserve characteristics and local management practices. Fast-growing mobile Trochus niloticus exhibited strong positive abundance and size responses only within the older larger tabu area through the combined effects of protection from harvesting and translocation actions by local fishers. Similar trends were observed to a lesser extent for sessile slow-growing giant clams (Tridacna spp.), but these were not significant after four years of closure. Despite historical evidence of their presence in the area, surveys emphasized the severe population collapse of the heavily targeted green snail (Turbo marmoratus). Under certain conditions, very small-scale reserves, such as those implemented by village-based conservation initiatives, can rapidly and efficiently enhance local reef invertebrate resources. It is still unclear whether the changes are sufficient to restore critical levels of spawning biomass at larger scale and reverse the severe depletion of invertebrate resources occurring in Vanuatu. © Foundation for Environmental Conservation 2010.",,364-372,,3,37,,Environ.

Assessing their actual efficiency is still a challenge in complex ecosystems such as coral reefs, where reserve effects are likely to be obscured by high levels of environmental variability. The goal of this study was to investigate the potential interference of small-scale habitat structure on the efficiency of reserves. The spatial distribution of widely harvested macroinvertebrates was surveyed in a large set of protected vs. unprotected stations from eleven reefs located in New Caledonia. Abundance, density and individual size data were collected along random, small-scale (20×1 m) transects. Fine habitat typology was derived with a quantitative photographic method using 17 local habitat variables. Marine reserves substantially augmented the local density, size structure and biomass of the target species. Density of Trochus niloticus and Tridacna maxima doubled globally inside the reserve network; average size was greater by 10 to 20% for T. niloticus. We demonstrated that the apparent success of protection could be obscured by marked variations in population structure occurring over short distances, resulting from small-scale heterogeneity in the reef habitat. The efficiency of reserves appeared to be modulated by the availability of suitable habitats at the decimetric scale (""microhabitats"") for the considered sessile/low-mobile macroinvertebrate species. Incorporating microhabitat distribution could significantly enhance the efficiency of habitat surrogacy, a valuable approach in the case of conservation targets focusing on endangered or emblematic macroinvertebrate or relatively sedentary fish species. © 2013 Dumas et al.",,,,3,8,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,animal shell; Animals; article; Biodiversity; biomass; Biomass; Conservation of Natural Resources; coral reef; Coral Reefs; Ecosystem; environmental protection; geographic distribution; Geography; habitat structure; Invertebrates; macroinvertebrate; microhabitat; New Caledonia; nonhuman; photography; population abundance; quantitative analysis; species conservation; species distribution; Tridacna maxima; Trochus niloticus,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The development of plants is the result of their own genetic characteristics, but this is influenced by the microclimate conditions in the environment in which they grow. In the growing areas, the specific microclimate conditions must be strictly monitored. On the other hand, in the context of climate change and urbanization, there has been a need to develop specialized modules for vegetable production. Growing vegetables on urban farms is an increasingly used concept internationally. In this sense, a team of researchers from the INMA and HORTING Institutes in Bucharest - Romania has developed a collaborative project, which aims to investigate the main microclimate parameters such as temperature, relative humidity, CO2 concentration and light radiation intensity inside a prototype urban farm for research, in which green vegetables and microplants can be grown. Due to the complexity of the phenomena that take place in the closed spaces of culture, the amount of information necessary for the complete quantification of the variables of microclimate factors depends both on the intensity of the thermo-physical processes and on the accuracy of the measuring instruments used. This paper presents the preliminary results of the investigation of the main microclimate parameters within the experimental module. This module is a good laboratory tool that could be used in a series of research on the influence of light radiation on certain characteristics of microplants or vegetable seedlings.

This case study produced a series of physical and biological indicator categories through a best professional judgment (BPJ) process with an interdisciplinary group of over 50 regional research scientists and marine resource managers from a wide range of state and federal agencies, NGOs, and universities. A working group of research scientists and marine resource managers used this set of ocean climate indicators to develop the Ocean Climate Indicators Monitoring Inventory and Plan. The Plan includes monitoring goals and objectives common for eight physical and four biological indicators; specific goals for each indicator; monitoring strategies and activities; an inventory of available monitoring data; opportunities for expanding or improving existing or new monitoring approaches; and case studies with specific examples of the indicators’ utility for natural resource management and basic scientific research. Beyond developing indicators that support effective science-based management decisions, this scalable process established and strengthened mutually beneficial connections between scientists and managers, resulting in indicators that had broad support of project participants, were quickly adopted by the GFNMS, and could be used by managers and scientists from this region and beyond. © 2019",,,,,252,,J.

Focusing on two protected areas of coastal rain forest in the state of Săo Paulo, Brazil, the problems of implementing a strict conservation policy are discussed. The research reported in this paper shows that, although Săo Paulo state has a comprehensive and well organized system of protected areas, considerable deficits exist in its enforcement.

We classify monitoring in MPAs into four categories and identify a critically important, but undervalued category: human pressure monitoring that targets human activities and their impacts. Human pressure monitoring is fundamental for interpreting the results of ecological performance monitoring and for evaluating MPA management effectiveness. The consequences of ecological performance monitoring that show unsuccessful MPA performance while falsely assuming successful mitigation of human pressures could jeopardize MPA performance analysis and adaptive management, and thus be worse than not monitoring at all. Human pressure monitoring enables using MPAs as reference areas where the effects of global or regional pressures (e.g. climate change) can be disentangled from the effects of local human activities, as well as to minimize the shifting baseline phenomenon in defining healthy stocks. These benefits cannot be realized without active human pressure monitoring integrated into an adaptive management cycle that ensures effective MPA protection. In the absence of human pressure monitoring, all ecological monitoring within MPAs falls in the ambient monitoring category: monitoring that is not intended to measure conservation outcomes. We discuss the implications for monitoring programme design and provide a structure for decision-makers on how to prioritize monitoring activities within MPAs that place greater emphasis on improving MPAs as biodiversity conservation tools over proving MPA performance. © 2020 Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are being established globally and require periodic monitoring to determine whether their objectives are being met. Baited underwater video systems are becoming a popular method for monitoring change within protected fish populations, because they are less damaging to habitats than bottom trawling and allow for more statistical powerful comparisons to determine spatial and temporal patterns in the relative abundances, lengths and biomass of demersal and pelagic fishes. However, much remains uncertain about how interactions between the fish and bait and between the fish themselves affect the results obtained. Agonistic behaviours are frequently observed around the bait of the camera and potentially bias fish density estimates by altering the number and size classes seen at cameras. Here we counted the number of agonistic behaviours between pink snappers (Pagrus auratus), the size of fish involved and whether the fish left the field of view following such behaviours. The study consisted of 20 baited underwater video deployments inside a New Zealand marine reserve and 20 in adjacent open areas. We observed a significant relationship between the peak number of fish observed at the camera and the total number of agonistic behaviours, as well as the number of both aggressor and subordinate fish leaving the camera field of view following interactions. The slope of the latter relationship and thus the absolute numbers of fish leaving were higher for subordinate fish. As subordinates were significantly smaller than aggressors, the apparent size frequency distribution is likely skewed away from smaller size classes. The staying time of the fish and thus the maximum number of fish present at the camera will be reduced by agonistic behaviours and the absolute magnitude of this effect appears to be greater at high fish densities. Our results suggest that an overall effect of these phenomena is to underestimate the differences in abundance between MPAs and open areas, but also to overestimate differences in average size. © 2014 Blackwell Verlag GmbH.",,810-818,,3,36,,Mar.

Interpolations of seabed samples are often required for understanding target regions between collection sites. Data quality in the MARS database varies, with data quality control resulting in the exclusion of over 7,000 samples, most of which were dredged samples. Dredged samples are thought to lower the accuracy of the spatial predictions produced from the database. In this study we examined whether these excluded dredged samples should be used for spatial predictions by assessing whether the dredged samples decreased or increased the accuracy of the resulting spatial predictions of seabed mud content, and whether the dredging method used altered the accuracy of the resulting prediction. We confined our analyses to two contrasting areas in the Australian Exclusive Economic Zone (AEEZ): the Southwest Region (407 total samples; 150 dredged) and Petrel Region (534 total samples; 297 dredged). We compared the accuracy of interpolated surfaces of mud content generated from quality controlled (QCed) samples with surfaces generated with samples from different dredge types (benthic, pipe, chain bag and unspecified). In the Southwest region samples included 73 benthic, 19 pipe, 41 chain bag, and 17 unspecified dredged samples. In the Petrel region samples included 46 pipe and 251 unspecified dredged samples. Spatial predictions of seabed mud content were made using Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) and Ordinary Kriging (OK). Predictive errors were assessed based on leave-one-out cross-validation in terms of relative mean absolute error (RMAE). The effects of the dredged samples on the predictive error were analysed using paired Mann-Whitney tests. For sediment samples in the Southwest region, including benthic dredge samples in the prediction reduced the accuracy of IDW by 1.79% in terms of RMAE. Including chain bag dredge samples increased the accuracy of IDW with a small difference in RMAE of 0.47%. The difference in accuracy of IDW was insignificant for the unspecified type samples, all dredged sample types and pipe dredged samples. Including samples with all-dredged type and unspecified type dredge samples improved the accuracy of the OK predictions over the QCed samples in the Southwest region with a small effect on RMAE of 0.68% for all-dredged samples and 0.65% for unspecified type dredged samples. The difference in accuracy of OK was insignificant for benthic dredged, pipe dredged and chain bag dredged samples in the Southwest region. No significant effects on the accuracy of IDW in the Petrel region were found for all the tested dredged sample types (unspecified type, pipe dredged samples, and all-dredged samples). The difference in accuracy of OK in the Petrel Region for samples with all dredged and with unspecified dredged samples was insignificant. Including pipe dredged samples increased the accuracy of OK in the Petrel with a negligible effect on RMAE of 0.02%. In summary, the inclusion of dredged samples produced minimal effects on the accuracy of spatial predictive models. Effects were not consistent across region or dredge type, but findings showed dredged samples had surprisingly little effect on the accuracy of the predictions. Including the dredged samples would require reprocessing the spatial predictions for the AEEZ based on the MARS database, so as the findings are only based on mud sediment data from two regions, caution should be taken to generalise these findings to other sediment types and to the entire Australian marine margin. Further testing is required to verify these findings for other methods, regions and sediment types and identify whether future spatial predictions can include some of this extra data without a loss in accuracy. © 2017 Proceedings - 22nd International Congress on Modelling and Simulation, MODSIM 2017.

Large seafloor areas are being approved for exploration for seafloor mineral deposits, creating an urgent need for regional environmental management plans. Networks of areas where mining and mining impacts are prohibited are key elements of these plans. We adapt marine reserve design principles to the distinctive biophysical environment of mid-ocean ridges, offer a framework for design and evaluation of these networks to support conservation of benthic ecosystems on mid-ocean ridges, and introduce projected climate-induced changes in the deep sea to the evaluation of reserve design. We enumerate a suite of metrics to measure network performance against conservation targets and network design criteria promulgated by the Convention on Biological Diversity. We apply these metrics to network scenarios on the northern and equatorial Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where contractors are exploring for seafloor massive sulfide (SMS) deposits. A latitudinally distributed network of areas performs well at (i) capturing ecologically important areas and 30 to 50% of the spreading ridge areas, (ii) replicating representative areas, (iii) maintaining along-ridge population connectivity, and (iv) protecting areas potentially less affected by climate-related changes. Critically, the network design is adaptive, allowing for refinement based on new knowledge and the location of mining sites, provided that design principles and conservation targets are maintained. This framework can be applied along the global mid-ocean ridge system as a precautionary measure to protect biodiversity and ecosystem function from impacts of SMS mining.

Understanding the distribution of these species within MPAs is key to delivering effective management, but monitoring can be challenging over such vast areas of open ocean. Historical fisheries data, collected prior to MPA establishment, can provide an insight into the past distributions of target species. We investigated the spatial and temporal distribution of yellowfin (Thunnus albacares) and skipjack (Katsuwonus pelamis) tuna catch using logbook data from the purse seine fishery in the British Indian Ocean Territory from 1996 to 2010, before it was established as an MPA in April 2010. Generalized additive models were used to predict tuna presence and relative abundance from fishing records in relation to temporal and environmental variables. Significant variables included sea salinity, temperature, and water velocity. Predictions from the models identified a distinct hotspot for large yellowfin tuna within the MPA, and areas of high predicted relative abundance of skipjack tuna. We recommend that these areas are used as focal points from which populations can be monitored and investigations into tuna residency time can occur, so that the effectiveness of the MPA in conserving highly mobile pelagic fish can be determined. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,2057-2070,,12,29,,Aquatic Conserv.

The National Park is recognised for its high biodiversity with over 2000 plant species (including many endemics), threatened ecological communities and rare fauna. In contrast with many other areas of high biodiversity value in the region, the FRNP remains largely free of the introduced plant pathogen, Phytophthora cinnamomi Rands, with less than 0.1% of the Park currently infested. Phytophthora cinnamomi was introduced to the FRNP in 1971 with the construction of the unauthorised Bell Track. Currently, the pathogen is located within an internally draining catchment giving some opportunity for limiting its spread into the rest of the FRNP. In recognition of this, a multi-disciplinary integrated management plan has been implemented to contain P. cinnamomi within the current infested catchment. The management plan aimed to accurately identify the area infested with the pathogen, contain it within the current catchment boundaries and reduce the impact on the native plant communities within the infested area. Containment of P. cinnamomi within the current catchment protects tens of thousands of hectares of healthy heathland within the Park from the impact of the pathogen. This review summarises a range of management techniques that have been used to contain the infestation.

Managers and decision-makers need a better understanding of the policy systems established to meet conservation targets in order to inform post-2020 CBD policy implementation. This paper compares two policy systems for implementing marine protected areas (MPAs) which protect a threatened source of biodiversity, coral reefs. Comparing a centralized policy system, with power emanating from ministries (Malaysia), with a decentralized policy system, with power concentrated in subnational government (Indonesia), provides insights. Policy process literature is used to build on the already substantial interdisciplinary literature on MPAs, drawing novel insights into policy-makers and how they determine policy problems, shape policy options, and are influenced by political events. Findings are that the tropics-wide coral bleaching event in 2015–2016 fundamentally changed the way managers perceived the problems that biodiversity conservation policy solves. Managers are beginning to prioritize policy responses to climate stressors with the same urgency as historically important stressors like overfishing, implementing responses at starkly different power centers within policy systems. Non-governmental organizations (NGOs), subnational governments, and the private sector are implementing innovative policy responses in the decentralized system, while the same actors in the centralized system face constraints because of its rigid policy framework. Understanding where starkly different power centers, and related dynamism, fall within policy systems allows for more effective reforms and investments for the next iteration of the CBD. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,302,,J.

However, obtaining data is difficult, limiting the ability of science to inform management decisions. We have used three different methods of quantifying biodiversity to describe patterns of biodiversity in an area that includes two marine reserves in deep water off southern Australia. We used biological data collected during a recent survey, combined with extensive physical data to model, predict and map three different attributes of biodiversity: distributions of common species, beta diversity and rank abundance distributions (RAD). The distribution of each of eight common species was unique, although all the species respond to a depth-correlated physical gradient. Changes in composition (beta diversity) were large, even between sites with very similar environmental conditions. Composition at any one site was highly uncertain, and the suite of species changed dramatically both across and down slope. In contrast, the distributions of the RAD components of biodiversity (community abundance, richness, and evenness) were relatively smooth across the study area, suggesting that assemblage structure (i.e. the distribution of abundances of species) is limited, irrespective of species composition. Seamounts had similar biodiversity based on metrics of species presence, beta diversity, total abundance, richness and evenness to the adjacent continental slope in the same depth ranges. These analyses suggest that conservation objectives need to clearly identify which aspects of biodiversity are valued, and employ an appropriate suite of methods to address these aspects, to ensure that conservation goals are met. © 2012 Dunstan et al.",,,,5,7,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,animal; Animals; Aquatic Organisms; aquatic species; article; Australia; benthos; biodiversity; Biodiversity; community structure; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; correlation analysis; ecosystem; Ecosystem; environmental parameters; environmental protection; geographic and geological phenomena; geographic distribution; Geological Phenomena; marine biology; Marine Biology; methodology; nonhuman; population abundance; sea water; Seawater; species composition; species difference; species distribution; species richness; Species Specificity; statistics; Tasmania,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Fish species have adapted to the basin's size and seasonal dynamics by displaying a broad range of migratory behaviour, but they are under increasing threats; however, no study to date has assessed threats and conservation of Amazonian migratory fishes. Here, the available knowledge on the diversity of migratory behaviour in Amazonian fishes is synthesized, including the geographical scales at which they occur, their drivers and timing, and life stage at which they are performed. Migratory fishes are integral components of Amazonian society. They contribute about 93% (range 77–99%) of the fisheries landings in the basin, amounting to ~US$436 million annually. These valuable fish populations are mainly threatened by growing trends of overexploitation, deforestation, climate change, and hydroelectric dam development. Most Amazonian migratory fish have key ecological roles as apex predators, ecological engineers, or seed-dispersal species. Reducing their population sizes could induce cascading effects with implications for ecosystem stability and associated services. Conserving Amazonian migratory fishes requires a broad portfolio of research, management, and conservation actions, within an ecosystem-based management framework at the basin scale. This would require trans-frontier coordination and recognition of the crucial importance of freshwater ecosystems and their connectivity. Existing areas where fishing is allowed could be coupled with a chain of freshwater protected areas. Management of commercial and subsistence species also needs fisheries activities to be monitored in the Amazonian cities and in the floodplain communities to allow assessments of the status of target species, and the identification of management units or stocks. Ensuring that existing and future fisheries management rules are effective implies the voluntary participation of fishers, which can be achieved by increasing the effectiveness and coverage of adaptive community-based management schemes. © 2021 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,1087-1105,,5,31,,Aquatic Conserv.

Our study proposes a scientific method for participatory modelling, with the aim of contributing to the conservation management of habitats and species at a Natura 2000 site (Crozon Peninsula, Bretagne, France) that is representative of in landuse changes in coastal areas. We make use of companion modelling and its associated tools (scenario-planning, GIS, multi-agent modelling and simulations) to consider possible futures through the co-construction of management scenarios and the understanding of their consequences on different indicators of biodiversity status (habitats, avifauna, flora). The maintenance of human activities as they have been carried out since the creation of the Natura 2000s zone allows the biodiversity values to remain stable. Extensive agricultural activities have been shown to be essential to this maintenance, whereas management sustained by the multiplication of conservation actions brings about variable results according to the indicators. None of the scenarios has a positive incidence on the set of indicators. However, an understanding of the modelling system and the results of the simulations allow for the refining of the selection of conservation actions in relation to the species to be preserved. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,27-35,,,168,,J.

Studies on this topic have risen over the last decade as species are under increasing risk from anthropogenic threats. Sub-Saharan Africa contains the highest number of terrestrial mammals listed as vulnerable, endangered or critically endangered. However, the spatial distribution of illegal hunting incidences is not well documented. To address this knowledge gap, the systematic map presented here aims to answer three research questions: (1) What data are available on the spatial distribution of illegal hunting of terrestrial mammals in Sub-Saharan Africa in relation to environmental and anthropogenic correlates i.e. proximity to roads, water bodies, human settlement areas, different land tenure arrangements and anti-poaching ranger patrol bases? (2) Which research methodologies have primarily been used to collect quantitative data and how comparable are these data? (3) Is there a bias in the research body toward particular taxa and geographical areas? Methods: Systematic searches were carried out across eight bibliographic databases; articles were screened against pre-defined criteria. Only wild terrestrial mammals listed as vulnerable, endangered or critically endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) whose geographical range falls in Sub-Saharan Africa and whose threat assessment includes hunting and trapping were included. To meet our criteria, studies were required to include quantitative, spatially explicit data. In total 14,325 articles were screened at the level of title and abstract and 206 articles were screened at full text. Forty-seven of these articles met the pre-defined inclusion criteria. Results: Spatially explicit data on illegal hunting are available for 29 species in 19 of the 46 countries that constitute Sub-Saharan Africa. Data collection methods include GPS and radio tracking, bushmeat household and market surveys, data from anti-poaching patrols, hunting follows and first-hand monitoring of poaching signs via line transects, audio and aerial surveys. Most studies have been conducted in a single protected area exploring spatial patterns in illegal hunting with respect to the surrounding land. Several spatial biases were detected. Conclusions: There is a considerable lack of systematically collected quantitative data showing the distribution of illegal hunting incidences and few comparative studies between different tenure areas. The majority of studies have been conducted in a single protected area looking at hunting on a gradient to surrounding village land. From the studies included in the map it is evident there are spatial patterns regarding environmental and anthropogenic correlates. For example, hunting increases in proximity to transport networks (roads and railway lines), to water sources, to the border of protected areas and to village land. The influence of these spatial features could be further investigated through meta-analysis. There is a diverse range of methods in use to collect data on illicit hunting mainly drawing on pre-existing law enforcement data or researcher led surveys detecting signs of poaching. There are few longitudinal studies with most studies representing just one season of data collection and there is a geographical research bias toward Tanzania and a lack of studies in Central Africa.  © 2020 The Author(s).",,,,1,9,,Environ.

Some of the projects in the first two rounds suffered long delays due to uncertainty of project level impacts, particularly cumulative impacts.

The objective of the study was to provide a comprehensive assessment of the spatial extent and patterns of burned areas in a new deforestation frontier in the Amazonas state. The methodology applied cross-referenced burned area data from 2003 to 2019 with climate, land cover, private properties and Protected Areas information and performed a series of statistical tests. The influence of the Multivariate ENSO Index (MEI) contributed to a decreasing rainfall anomalies trend and increasing temperature anomalies trend. This process intensified the dry season and increased the extent of annual natural vegetation affected by fires, reaching a peak of 681 km2 in 2019. The results showed that the increased deforestation trend occurred mostly in public lands, mainly after the new forest code, leading to an increase in fires from 66 to 84% in 2019. The methods developed here could identify fire extent, trends, and relationship with land cover change and climate, thus pointing to priority areas for preservation.

This expansion of protected areas has often led to population displacements and heightened restrictions on access to land and natural resources for indigenous peoples and other local communities, at times precipitating various conflicts, contestations, and broader forms of noncompliance with conservation regulations. Despite ongoing challenges in resolving trade-offs between conservation and livelihood objectives, the recently established Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) seeks to achieve even more ambitious conservation targets. These include GBF Target 3—sometimes referred to as the “30 × 30” target—of encompassing 30 percent of all terrestrial and marine ecosystems in protected areas or other effective area-based conservation measures by 2030. The GBF’s vision for achieving Target 3 implicitly assumes, however, that widespread challenges related to noncompliance in conservation governance can largely be resolved in their present manifestation(s), and prevented from reemerging as the scale of the global conservation estate increases. Seeking to deepen our understanding of the emergence and recurrence of illicit or otherwise non-rule-complying behaviors in everyday practices of conservation governance, we draw on a case study of the Manas Biosphere Reserve, a UNESCO Man and Biosphere Reserve in the India-Bhutan borderlands region, northeastern India. Highlighting key findings from this case study, we foreground the concept of illicit resilience to encompass a suite of informal factors and dynamics that lead to the persistence of de facto land uses and management regimes in ways that often strikingly diverge from de jure prescriptions for resource conservation within protected areas. These dynamics include (1) long-term insurgency and political unrest; (2) collusive corruption, patronage, and local politics; and (3) elite-driven processes of informal resettlement and subsequent occupation of forestland. In short, we argue that a deeper understanding of such forms of illicit resilience and their underlying drivers will be crucial for more accurately conceptualizing both feasibility constraints on, and socioenvironmental justice implications of, efforts to rapidly upscale the spatial remit of conservation areas by 2030 and beyond. © 2024 The Author(s).

Large terrestrial predators can often avoid genetic subdivision due to fragmentation because they have high rates of dispersal-mediated gene flow. Leopards (Panthera pardus) are found in a variety of habitats and are the most widely distributed of the large and middle-sized felids. We investigated the genetic diversity and population substructure of leopards (P.p fusca) in a fragmented meta-population comprised of four populations from five protected areas and inter-connecting corridors spread over an area of 45,000 km2 in central India. Location: Kanha, Pench, Satpura and Melghat Tiger Reserves, and interconnecting corridors in the Satpura-Maikal Landscape of Central India. Methods: We collected faecal samples and used genetic methods to identify individuals, estimate the genetic variation and evaluate the patterns of genetic substructuring within this meta-population of leopards. Results: We identified 217 individual leopards using a panel of seven microsatellite loci. Leopards showed high levels of genetic diversity in all sampled populations. Spatial and non-spatial Bayesian analysis revealed at least two admixed genetic populations with indications of ongoing genetic subdivision. Genetic differentiation between populations was not explained by geographic distance. We identified nine individuals as migrants, most of which were assigned to reserves connected by corridors. Main conclusions: Our study demonstrates that the leopard, an adaptable and vagile species, can become genetically differentiated with increased habitat fragmentation. Contrary to our hypothesis of panmixia, our results indicate that although leopards in this landscape are admixed, there is genetic substructuring at both the landscape and the fine-scale level. We conclude that this is due to habitat fragmentation and corridors are of immense value in maintaining genetic connectivity in this landscape. © 2012 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,760-771,,7,19,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,carnivore; connectivity; conservation genetics; Corridors; Faecal DNA genetic structure; felid; Felidae; gene flow; genetic marker; genetic structure; habitat corridor; habitat fragmentation; Habitat fragmentation; habitat loss; India; Non-invasive sampling; Panthera; Panthera pardus; protected area; sampling,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Wet seasons consistently had higher nicotine levels in water, suggesting the possibility of tobacco litter entering the reserve through stormwater runoff. Cotinine was detected in both sites in both water and sediment samples; however, these levels were considerably lower in comparison to nicotine concentrations. Limited research assesses aquatic environmental pollution from tobacco use and disposal, especially in protected areas like urban natural reserves. This study was conducted at the Kendall-Frost Mission Bay Marsh Reserve in San Diego, California, to evaluate tobacco-related pollutants in San Diego's urban waters. Twenty-six sampling events between November 2019 and February 2022, spanning wet and dry seasons at two outfall sites, were conducted. Nicotine and cotinine, a major ingredient of tobacco and its metabolite, were analyzed in the collected water and sediment samples. Nicotine concentrations differed substantially between the outfall locations (Noyes St. and Olney St.), with Noyes St. displaying wide variations, averaging at 9.31 (±13.24) ng/L with a maximum concentration of 50.75 ng/L, and Olney St. at 0.53 (±0.41) ng/L with a maximum concentration of 1.46 ng/L in water samples. In both locations, the nicotine concentrations in water samples were higher during wet seasons than dry seasons, and this pattern was more significant at Noyes St. outfall than at Olney St. outfall, which received not only stormwater runoff but also was connected to Mission Bay. Although this pattern did not directly align with sediment nicotine levels at both sites, maximum nicotine concentration in Noyes St. sediments during wet seasons was approximately 120 times higher than in Olney St. sediments. Regarding cotinine, Noyes St. outfall water averaged 3.17 ng/L (±1.88), and Olney St. water averaged 1.09 ng/L (±1.06). Similar to nicotine, the cotinine concentrations were higher in Noyes St. water and sediment compared to Olney St., but overall, the cotinine concentrations in both water and sediment were much lower than the corresponding nicotine concentrations. The study identifies urban stormwater runoff as a potential source of nicotine and cotinine pollution in a protected reserve, implicating tobacco product litter and human tobacco use as contributing factors. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,199,,Mar.

Location: United Kingdom dune slacks. Methods: Plant community composition, plant nutrient status and soil characteristics were measured for 164 quadrats in 41 dune slacks across 12 coastal sand dune systems. Data were collated on climate and atmospheric deposition. Hydrological regimes at daily resolution were modelled and calibrated using daily-to-monthly site measurements, from which we calculated quadrat-level hydrological metrics. Alpha diversity (richness, Shannon diversity and Pielou's evenness) metrics and beta diversity (turnover and nestedness) for species and genera were calculated across three spatial levels from sand dune system (highest) to dune slack to quadrat (lowest). Results: Diversity patterns depended on the spatial and taxonomic level considered. At smaller spatial levels (between dune slacks and between quadrats), alpha and beta diversity varied along gradients driven by soil characteristics, water table depth and atmospheric deposition. At larger spatial levels (between sand dune systems), patterns of beta diversity were a consequence of plant nutrient status. There was little variability in alpha diversity along this same gradient, with only small changes in Pielou's species evenness. Patterns at a coarser taxonomic level (genus) mirrored those at the species level. Main conclusion: We show that patterns of variation in plant diversity are dependent on the spatial level considered, but taxonomic level made little difference in understanding these patterns. Therefore, if we do not consider patterns across different spatial levels, important environmental and management drivers could be missed. The high biodiversity value and degree of threat to these European protected habitats makes such understanding invaluable for their conservation. © 2022 The Authors.

However, challenges in surveying mobile and cryptic species over adequate spatial and temporal scales can mask the importance of particular habitats, leading to uncertainty about which areas to protect to optimize conservation efforts. We investigated how telemetry-derived locations can help guide the scale and timing of fisheries closures with the aim of reducing threatened species bycatch. Forty juvenile speartooth sharks (Glyphis glyphis) were monitored over 22 months with implanted acoustic transmitters and an array of hydrophone receivers. Using the decision-support tool Marxan, we formulated a permanent fisheries closure that prioritized areas used more frequently by tagged sharks and considered areas perceived as having high value to fisheries. To explore how the size of the permanent closure compared with an alternative set of time-area closures (i.e., where different areas were closed to fishing at different times of year), we used a cluster analysis to group months that had similar arrangements of selected planning units (informed by shark movements during that month) into 2 time-area closures. Sharks were consistent in their timing and direction of migratory movements, but the number of tagged sharks made a big difference in the placement of the permanent closure; 30 individuals were needed to capture behavioral heterogeneity. The dry-season (May–January) and wet-season (February–April) time-area closures opened 20% and 25% more planning units to fishing, respectively, compared with the permanent closure with boundaries fixed in space and time. Our results show that telemetry has the potential to inform and improve spatial management of mobile species and that the temporal component of tracking data can be incorporated into prioritizations to reduce possible impacts of spatial closures on established fisheries. © 2019 Society for Conservation Biology",,1426-1437,,6,33,,Conserv.

However, there is concern over the extent to which this dual goal has been achieved, and an increasing recognition of trade-offs and synergies within and between aspects of each of the goals. The amount and scope of the available evidence on the success of conservation and management interventions in both arenas has lacked documentation, for a number of reasons, including limited resources for monitoring and evaluation and the difficulty in bringing together a disparate evidence base. This systematic map focuses on the interaction between marine conservation management and the health and well-being of coastal communities in South East Asia. Method: We searched bibliographic databases to find published literature, and identified grey literature through institutional and organisational website searches and key stakeholders. Eligibility criteria were applied in two stages, title and abstract and full text, with consistency checks. We extracted meta-data on the design and characteristics of each study, from which we produced an interactive database and map, and a narrative summary. Results: We assessed 42,894 records at title and abstract from the main searches. 1,331 articles were assessed at full text (30 articles were not retrievable). 287 articles (281 studies) were included in the systematic map. Most studies were peer-reviewed publications (90%), and from the Philippines and Indonesia (72%). 31% of studies were solely qualitative, 45% were solely quantitative and 24% included both qualitative and quantitative research. Only 24% (31/127) of quantitative studies included a comparator. We identified knowledge clusters where studies investigated the links between the marine conservation interventions: Site Protection, Economic or Livelihood Incentives or Alternatives, or Habitat Management, and the human health and well-being outcomes: Economic Living Standards, Governance and Empowerment, or Social Relations. In addition, qualitative research clusters were identified exploring the links between the intervention Habitat Management, and the outcome Governance and Empowerment, and between the intervention Economic or Livelihood Incentives or Alternatives, and the outcomes of Governance and Empowerment, and Social Relations. We identified major knowledge gaps in evidence for the effect of marine conservation interventions on the outcomes Freedom of Choice and Action, Security and Safety, Subjective Well-being, Health, and Culture and Spirituality. There was a lack of studies involving Education, Awareness and Activism interventions that reported any human health and well-being outcomes. Conclusion: We present the first updatable, interrogable and comprehensive evidence map on this topic for South East Asia. Our work supports further, detailed investigation of knowledge clusters using systematic review and also serves to identify understudied topic areas. The lack of comparative, quantitative studies suggests that future research should include counterfactuals to strengthen the robustness of evidence base. Users of this systematic map should recognise that much evidence may be national or locally specific, and that we did not undertake an assessment of study quality. Thus, when considering implications for policy and decision-making, users should carefully consider the heterogeneity of available evidence and refer to original research articles to gain a full depth of understanding and context. © 2021",,,,,151,,Environ.

However, biodiversity is often maintained in natural forests by a background level of disturbance, which, in some forests, takes the form of forest fires. Set-aside forests may therefore benefit from continuation of such disturbances, which, in forests under protection, must be managed anthropogenically. While the effects of prescribed burning on tree regeneration and on pyrophilous and/or saproxylic species in some regions are well known, effects on other organisms are less clear and/or consistent. It would be valuable to broaden the knowledge of how prescribed burning affects forest biodiversity, particularly because this practice is increasingly considered as a conservation management intervention. The primary aim of the proposed systematic review is to clarify how biodiversity is affected by prescribed burning in temperate and boreal forests. The ultimate purpose of the review is to investigate whether and how such prescribed burning may be useful as a means of conserving or restoring biodiversity, beyond that of pyrophilous and saproxylic species, in forest set-asides. Methods: The review will examine primary field studies of how prescribed burning affects biodiversity in boreal and temperate forests. We will consider studies made in such forests anywhere in the world, and will include forests both in protected areas and under commercial management. Non-intervention will be used as a comparator. Relevant outcomes will include a range of measures of biodiversity, including abundance and diversity, but not of pyrophilous and saproxylic species. Relevant studies will be taken from a recent systematic map of the evidence on biodiversity impacts of active management in forests set aside for conservation or restoration.

The primary aim of this systematic review was to clarify how biodiversity is affected by prescribed burning in temperate and boreal forests, and whether burning may be useful as a means of conserving or restoring biodiversity, beyond that of pyrophilous and saproxylic species. Methods: The review examined primary field studies of the effects of prescribed burning on biodiversity in boreal and temperate forests in protected areas or under commercial management. Non-intervention or alternate levels of intervention were comparators. Relevant outcomes were species richness and diversity, excluding that of pyrophilous and saproxylic species. Relevant studies were extracted from a recent systematic map of the evidence on biodiversity impacts of active management in forests set aside for conservation or restoration. Additional searches and a search update were undertaken using a strategy targeted to identify studies focused on prescribed burning interventions. Grey literature and bibliographies of relevant published reviews were also searched for evidence. Studies were assessed for internal and external validity and data were extracted, using validity assessment and data extraction tools specifically designed for this review. Studies were presented in a narrative synthesis and interactive map, and those which were suitable were quantitatively synthesised using meta-analyses, subgroup analysis and meta-regression. Results: Searches generated a total of 12,971 unique records. After screening for relevance, 244 studies (from 235 articles) were included in this review. Most studied forests were located in the USA (172/244), with the rest located in Canada, Europe and Australia. Eighty-two studies reporting 219 comparisons were included in the quantitative synthesis. Within the meta-analyses for each group of taxa, we identified a small to moderate volume of evidence, and heterogeneity was ubiquitous. Prescribed burning had significant positive effects on vascular plant richness, non-native vascular plant richness, and in broadleaf forests, herbaceous plant richness. Time since the burn, forest type and climate zone were significant moderators predicting the effect of burning on herbaceous plant richness. No other significant relationships were identified. Conclusions: Knowledge gaps exist for studies outside North America, in mixed forests and for non-plant organism outcomes. We identify a need to apply study designs consistently and appropriately, minimising the impact of confounding factors wherever possible, and to provide extensive detail in study reports. We recommend that researchers build long-term datasets charting the impacts of prescribed burning on succession. The lack of consistent findings was likely due to high inter-study heterogeneity, and low numbers of comparable studies in each quantitative synthesis. We found no consistent effects of moderators, and were unable to test the effect of many potential moderators, due to a lack of reporting. Rather than making any general recommendations on the use of prescribed burning for biodiversity restoration, we provide an evidence atlas of previous studies for researchers and practitioners to use. We observe that outcomes are still difficult to predict, and any restoration project should include a component of monitoring to build a stronger evidence base for recommendations and guidelines on how to best achieve conservation targets. Prescribed burning may have harmful effects on taxa that are conservation-dependent and careful planning is needed. © 2018 The Author(s).",,,,1,7,,Environ.

In many cases, they are managed adaptively: the abundance of target species is monitored, and observations are compared to some model-based expectation for the trajectory of population recovery to ensure that the MPA is achieving its goals. Most previous analyses of the transient (short-term) response of populations to the cessation of fishing inside MPAs have dealt only with gonochore (fixed-sex) species. However, many important fishery species are protogynous hermaphrodites (female-to-male sex-changing). Because size-selective harvest will predominantly target males in these species, harvesting not only reduces abundance but also skews the sex ratio toward females. Thus the response to MPA implementation will involve changes in both survival and sex ratio, and ultimately reproductive output. We used an age-structured model of a generic sex-changing fish population to compare transient population dynamics after MPA implementation to those of an otherwise similar gonochore population and examine how different features of sex-changing life history affect those dynamics. We examined both demographically open (most larval recruitment comes from outside the MPA) and demographically closed (most larval recruitment is locally produced) dynamics. Under both scenarios, population recovery of protogynous species takes longer when fishing was more intense pre-MPA (as in gonochores), but also depends heavily on the mating function, the degree to which the sex ratio affects reproduction. If few males are needed and reproduction is not affected by a highly female-biased sex ratio, then population recovery is much faster; if males are a limiting resource, then increases in abundance after MPA implementation are much slower than for gonochores. Unfortunately, the mating function is largely unknown for fishes. In general, we expect that most protogynous species with haremic mating systems will be in the first category (few males needed), though there is at least one example of a fish species (though not a sex-changing species) for which males are limiting. Thus a better understanding of the importance of male fish to population dynamics is needed for the adaptive management of MPAs. © 2020 by the Ecological Society of America",,,,3,30,,Ecol.

Yet many harvested species are protogynous hermaphrodites (older females change sex into males), so size-selective fishing will disproportionately remove males. This shifts the sex ratio, potentially disrupting reproduction. Some modeling studies have investigated management strategies for protogynous fishes, but there is no general theory explaining how spatial fishery management should account for protogyny. We developed a spatially explicit model of a generic protogynous fish population to examine the factors affecting the population persistence of coastal (i.e. non-migratory) protogynous populations under spatial management. We varied both (1) biological factors-the cues triggering sex change and the mating function (the relationship between sex ratio and fertilization success) and (2) management factors-configuration of no-take reserves and fishery management outside reserve boundaries. We found that the number and size of reserves required for persistence depended strongly on the sex change cue and the shape of the mating function. Populations with less flexible sex change and requiring more males for fertilization needed more and larger reserves. Unfortunately, empirical mating functions are poorly known for most species and a worthy target of future research. Additionally, persistence of populations with less flexible sex change was impaired by fishery regulations that concentrated on male size classes outside of reserves. Finally, we found that increases in the sex ratio (proportion male) inside reserves are not a reliable indicator of reserve success.

With the sudden influx of tourism from the completion of a new highway, now is a crucial time to ensure that future tourist development in this region is locally driven and environmentally responsible. As coral reefs are a foundation of Miches’ identity, economy, and natural wealth, they play an integral role in the realization of this goal. This study employed global reef monitoring protocols to conduct the first-ever quantitative health assessment of Miches’ reefs in order to guide future management practices. Surveys of multi-taxa indicator species were conducted alongside assessments of coral bleaching, disease prevalence, and evidence of anthropogenic impacts. Key findings include extremely low abundances of fishery-targeted species, high prevalence of diseased coral, anchor damage at nearly every site, and high abundances of indicator species for nutrient-based pollution such as fertilizers and raw sewage. Deeper, offshore reefs exhibited better health than shallow, inshore reefs, though they were still more degraded than comparable reefs in Dominican marine protected areas. Overall, Miches reefs are highly threatened by four main factors: overfishing, land-based pollution, human-related structural damage, and coral bleaching. To improve the well-being of the region's coral reefs and the communities that depend on them, an adaptive management plan is recommended that encompasses strong fisheries regulations, basic yet consistent monitoring efforts, and the integration of land-based and marine management practices. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,192-204,,,138,,Ocean Coast.

Marine reserve networks have become important tools for mitigating these pressures, and one of the most critical factors in determining their spatial design is the degree of connectivity among different populations of species prioritized for protection. To help inform the spatial design of an expanded reserve network in Fiji, we used rapidly evolving mitochondrial genes to investigate connectivity patterns of three coral reef species targeted by fisheries in Fiji: Epinephelus merra (Serranidae), Halichoeres trimaculatus (Labridae), and Holothuria atra (Holothuriidae). The two fish species, E. merra and Ha. trimaculatus, exhibited low genetic structuring and high amounts of gene flow, whereas the sea cucumber Ho. atra displayed high genetic partitioning and predominantly westward gene flow. The idiosyncratic patterns observed among these species indicate that patterns of connectivity in Fiji are likely determined by a combination of oceanographic and ecological characteristics. Our data indicate that in the cases of species with high connectivity, other factors such as representation or political availability may dictate where reserves are placed. In low connectivity species, ensuring upstream and downstream connections is critical.",,,,,6,,Sci.

Decisions regarding long-term investments in conservation actions contain significant risk of failure due to these inherent uncertainties. To address this challenge, decision makers need an arsenal of sophisticated but practical tools to help guide spatial conservation strategies. Theory asserts that managing risks can be achieved by diversifying an investment portfolio to include assets – such as stocks and bonds – that respond inversely to one another under a given set of conditions. We demonstrate an approach for formalizing the diversification of conservation assets (land parcels) and actions (restoration, species reintroductions) by using correlation structure to quantify the degree of risk for any proposed management investment. We illustrate a framework for identifying future habitat refugia by integrating species distribution modeling, scenarios of climate change and sea level rise, and impacts to critical habitat. Using the plains coqui (Eleutherodactylus juanariveroi), an endangered amphibian known from only three small wetland populations on Puerto Rico’s coastal plains, we evaluate the distribution of potential refugia under two model parameterizations and four future sea-level rise scenarios. We then apply portfolio theory using two distinct objective functions and eight budget levels to inform investment strategies for mitigating risk and increasing species persistence probability. Models project scenario-specific declines in coastal freshwater wetlands from 2% to nearly 30% and concurrent expansions of transitional marsh and estuarine open water. Conditional on the scenario, island-wide species distribution is predicted to contract by 25% to 90%. Optimal portfolios under the first objective function – benefit maximization – emphasizes translocating frogs to existing protected areas rather than investing in the protection of new habitat. Alternatively, optimal strategies using the second objective function – a risk-benefit tradeoff framework – include significant investment to protect parcels for the purpose of reintroduction or establishing new populations. These findings suggest that leveraging existing protected areas for species persistence, while less costly, may contain excessive risk and could result in diminished conservation benefits. Although our modeling includes numerous assumptions and simplifications, we believe this framework provides useful inference for exploring resource dynamics and developing robust adaptation strategies using an approach that is generalizable to other conservation problems which are spatial or portfolio in nature and subject to unresolvable uncertainty.

To buffer against global change, an established adaptation strategy is designing protected areas to increase representation and complementarity of biodiversity features. Uncertainty regarding the scale and magnitude of landscape change complicates reserve planning and exposes decision makers to the risk of failing to meet conservation goals. Conservation planning tends to treat risk as an absolute measure, ignoring the context of the management problem and risk preferences of stakeholders. Application of risk management theory to conservation emphasizes the diversification of a portfolio of assets, with the goal of reducing the impact of system volatility on investment return. We use principles of Modern Portfolio Theory (MPT), which quantifies risk as the variance and correlation among assets, to formalize diversification as an explicit strategy for managing risk in climate-driven reserve design. We extend MPT to specify a framework that evaluates multiple conservation objectives, allows decision makers to balance management benefits and risk when preferences are contested or unknown, and includes additional decision options such as parcel divestment when evaluating candidate reserve designs. We apply an efficient search algorithm that optimizes portfolio design for large conservation problems and a game theoretic approach to evaluate portfolio trade-offs that satisfy decision makers with divergent benefit and risk tolerances, or when a single decision maker cannot resolve their own preferences. Evaluating several risk profiles for a case study in South Carolina, our results suggest that a reserve design may be somewhat robust to differences in risk attitude but that budgets will likely be important determinants of conservation planning strategies, particularly when divestment is considered a viable alternative. We identify a possible fiscal threshold where adequate resources allow protecting a sufficiently diverse portfolio of habitats such that the risk of failing to achieve conservation objectives is considerably lower. For a range of sea-level rise projections, conversion of habitat to open water (14–180%) and wetland loss (1–7%) are unable to be compensated under the current protected network. In contrast, optimal reserve design outcomes are predicted to ameliorate expected losses relative to current and future habitat protected under the existing conservation estate. Published 2019.

Despite a complex history of multiple colonial rules, war, rapid economic development and societal growth, Vietnam was one of a few Southeast Asian countries to reverse deforestation trends and sustain net forest cover gain since the 1990s. However, a considerable amount of Vietnam’s forest gain has been from plantation forestry, as Vietnam’s policies have promoted economic development. In the Central Highlands region of Vietnam, widespread forest degradation and deforestation has occurred recently in some areas due to plantation forestry and other factors, including fire-linked deforestation, but protected areas here have been largely effective in their conservation goals. We studied deforestation, wildfires, and the contribution of fire-linked deforestation from 2001 to 2020 in an area near the Da Lat Plateau of the Central Highlands of Vietnam. We stratified our study area to distinguish legally protected areas and those in the surrounding landscape matrix without formal protection. Using satellite-derived data, we investigated four questions: (1) Have regional deforestation trends continued in parts of the Central Highlands from 2001 to 2020? (2) Based on remotely sensed fire detections, how has fire affected the Central Highlands and what proportion of deforestation is spatiotemporally linked to fire? (3) Were annual deforestation and burned area lower in protected areas relative to the surrounding land matrix? (4) Was the proportion of fire-linked deforestation lower in protected areas than in the matrix? To answer these questions, we integrated the Global Forest Change and FIRED VIETNAM datasets. We found that 3794 fires burned 8.7% of the total study area and 13.6% of the area became deforested between 2001 and 2020. While nearly half of fires were linked to deforestation, fire-linked deforestation accounted for only a small part of forest loss. Across the entire study area, 54% of fire-linked deforestation occurred in natural forests and 46% was in plantation forests. Fire ignitions in the study area were strongly linked to the regional dry season, November to March, and instrumental climate data from 1971 to 2020 showed statistically significant increasing trends in minimum, mean, and maximum temperatures. However, the total area burned did not have a significant increasing trend. Regional trends in deforestation continued in Vietnam’s Central Highlands from 2001 to 2020, and nearly half of all detected fires can be spatially and temporally linked to forest loss. However, protected areas in the region effectively conserved forests relative to the surrounding landscape. © 2023 by the authors.",,,,4,6,,Fire,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI,,,,deforestation; fire; national parks; remote sensing; spatial; tropical forest; Vietnam,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The aim of this study was to assess the observed changes in the fish population structure in the years following a fishing ban. The experiment took place in the Bamboung bolong, a small bay in the Sine Saloum estuary in Senegal, West Africa. The protection of this zone was undertaken with local fishermen support, and a formal MPA was created in 2004. The survey of the fish assemblages was initiated in 2003, the year before the fishing ban, and went on until 2007, with 12 sampling sites being monitored three times per year. In this paper, we describe and analyze the evolution of the fish assemblage during this five years' experimental period. Some changes have been highlighted on which the effect of the fishing ban was shown. After the fishing ban, an increase of total biomass and of maximal fish length has been registered. In the same time, the number of species has increased and the percentage of large and/or iconic species targeted by fishing has also increased. The community structure has been modified, with more small fish, more big fish (new large species and more large individuals in the original species) and fewer medium sized fish. The contribution of marine affinity species has increased in depend of the estuarine part of the assemblage. Finally, the trophic structure has been modified with an overall increase of the mean trophic level, resulting from an increase of the percentage of generalist or piscivorous predators and a sharp decrease of herbivorous and detritivorous low trophic level species. Marine predators which numbers and size were reduced by fisheries are again important components of the system. We argue that despite the intrinsic variability of the tropical estuarine environments, the introduction of a total ban on fishing in such estuarine zones can substantially improve the health status of the fish assemblage. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,74-85,,,100,,Ocean Coast.

While most ATPF areas are covered by mangroves, these areas have been experiencing severe anthropogenicdriven degradation and conversion. This study aims to evaluate land cover changes and associated carbon emissions in the ATPF over a 35-year period (1985-2020) by utilizing the available Landsat and Sentinel imagery from 1985, 2000, and 2020. Throughout the analysis period, we observed 63% (from 10,886 to 4059 ha) primary and secondary forest loss due to land use change. We identified three primary anthropogenic activities driving these losses, namely, land clearing for plantations and agriculture (3693 ha), coconut plantations (3315 ha), aquaculture (245 ha). We estimated that the largest carbon emissions were caused by coconut plantation conversion, with total carbon emissions of approximately 14.14 Mt CO2-eq. These amounts were almost 4 and 21 times higher than emissions from land clearing and aquaculture, respectively, as substantial soil carbon loss occurs once mangroves get transformed into coconut plantations. While coconut plantation expansion on mangroves could generate significant carbon stock losses and cleared forests become the primary candidate for restoration, our dataset could be useful for future land-based emission reduction policy intervention at a subnational level. Ultimately, our findings have direct implications for current national climate policies, through low carbon development strategies and emission reductions from the land use sector for 2030, as outlined in the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). © 2021 by the authors.",,Jan-14,,2,12,,Forests,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI AG,,,,"Agricultural robots; Anthropogenic activity; Aquaculture; Carbon; carbon emission; Catchments; Coastal forest; Conservation; Conversion; deforestation; Deforestation; Emission control; Emission reduction; Emission reduction policies; Forestry; human activity; Indonesia; land cover; Land cover change; Land use; Land Use; Land-cover change; Landsat; Low-carbon development; Lowland catchment; mangrove; Mangrove forestz; plantation; Plantations; protected area; remote sensing; Remote sensing; Rhizophoraceae; Runoff; satellite imagery; Secondary forests; Sentinel; South Sumatra; Sumatra , Indonesia",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Spatial variation in multivariate and univariate community metrics was related to three levels of fishing pressure (high-protection MPAs, limited-protection MPAs, fishing zones) for both continental and oceanic reefs. Results High-protection MPAs possessed a much greater biomass of higher carnivorous fishes, lower densities of asteroids and Eucidaris spp. urchins, and higher coral cover than limited-protection MPAs and fished zones. These results were generally consistent with the hypothesis that overfishing of predatory fishes within the ETP has led to increased densities of habitat-modifying macroinvertebrates, which has contributed to regional declines in coral cover. Major differences in ecological patterns were also evident between continental and oceanic biogeographic provinces.

Assemblages of fishes, invertebrates, and macroalgae showed strong and predictable distributional patterns within the newly declared Port Davey marine protected area (MPA) in south-western Tasmania. Biotic assemblages in the eastern estuarine section of the MPA within Bathurst Channel were extremely anomalous, both in relation to biota elsewhere in the Port Davey region and also to those present along the wider Tasmanian and Australian coasts. Much of this variation was due to the phenomenon of deepwater emergence, with species in 5m water depth in eastern Bathurst Channel possessing a mean maximum recorded depth of 200m, compared with <80m for the same metric when calculated for sites studied elsewhere around Australia. Deepwater emergence in Bathurst Channel was particularly notable for sessile organisms, although also evident among fishes and mobile macro-invertebrates. 2. Quantitative baseline surveys of reef-associated species were undertaken at sites interspersed among MPA management zone types and biotic community types, thereby providing an appropriate benchmark for assessing ecological changes in different management zones within the Port Davey region through the long term. Distinctive biota present in eastern and western Bathurst Channel, and eastern Port Davey, are well protected within 'no-take' sanctuary zones; however, a bias in location of sanctuary zones towards areas with little fishery resources resulted in less protection for the western Port Davey biota, which also extends along the open coast. Although the lack of high level protection for sites with fishery resources detracts from conservation goals, the Port Davey MPA nevertheless represents a major advance in environmental protection because the ecologically unique, fully protected locations are a necessary inclusion within any comprehensive Australian MPA network. © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,282-296,,3,20,,Aquatic Conserv.

The largest reserve at Maria Island (7 km coastline length) proved the most effective at achieving species conservation and resource enhancement. The number of fish, invertebrate and algal species, the densities of large fishes (> 325 mm length), bastard trumpeter (Latridopsis forsteri) and rock lobsters (Jasus edwardsii), and the mean size of blue- throated wrasse (Notolabrus tetricus) and abalone (Haliotis rubra), all increased significantly within the Maria Island reserve relative to external reference sites. Increases of an order of magnitude in the biomass of rock lobsters and two orders of magnitude in the abundance of trumpeter were particularly noticeable. Small abalone declined in density within the reserve, while large abalone became more numerous. The effectiveness of marine reserves corresponded with reserve size. Changes in species richness of fishes, invertebrates or plants were not detected in any of the three smaller reserves, other than an increase in number of fish species greater than 325 mm size within the Tinderbox marine reserve (2 km reserve length). Although patterns were partly obscured by the low power of statistical tests, trends were generally evident at the Tinderbox reserve for increasing densities of large fishes and rock lobsters, and for increases in the mean size of rock lobsters, abalone and blue-throated wrasse. Most of these trends were not apparent in the reserves with small reef areas at Governor Island (1 km reserve length) and Ninepin Point (1 km length). Rock lobsters above the legal size limit nevertheless became abundant in all reserves by the end of the study while remaining rare outside. Indirect changes to reef assemblages were also detected following the declaration of the Maria Island marine reserve. Accompanying the increase in macroalgal species richness was a change in predominant plant species from Cystophora retroflexa to Ecklonia radiata. Results of this study provide the first clear evidence that shallow Tasmanian reef ecosystems are overfished, and that unfished coastal ecosystems differ substantially from those where fishing occurs. The most noticeable changes caused by fishing were the virtual elimination of net- susceptible and heavily targeted species, which may otherwise be common, plus indirect changes to algal communities.

This outcome was presumably generated by sociopolitical pressures and planning processes that aim to systematically avoid locations with valuable resources, potentially compromising biodiversity conservation goals. Locations that were formerly highly fished are needed within MPA networks if the networks are to achieve conservation aims associated with (1) safeguarding all regional habitat types, (2) protecting threatened habitats and species, and (3) providing appropriate reference benchmarks for assessing impacts of fishing.

Recent approaches to the planning of marine protected area (MPA) networks for biodiversity conservation often stress the need for a representative coverage of habitat types while aiming to minimize impacts on resource users. As typified by planning for the Australian South-east Marine Region, this strategy can be manipulated by political processes, with consequent biased siting of MPAs. Networks thus created frequently possess relatively low value for biodiversity conservation, despite significant costs in establishment and maintenance. 2. Such biases can be minimized through application of the data-driven and species-based concept of key biodiversity areas (KBAs). 3. By mapping locations of threatened species and populations that are highly aggregated in time or space, the KBA process allows marine sites of global biodiversity significance to be systematically identified as priority conservation targets. Here, the value of KBAs for marine conservation planning is outlined, and guidelines and provisional criteria for their application provided.

Here, we compare continental- and decadal-scale trends in fisheries catches with underwater reef monitoring data for 533 sites around Australia, and find matching evidence of rapid fish-stock declines. Regardless of a high global ranking for fisheries sustainability, catches from Australian wild fisheries decreased by 31% over the past decade. The biomass of large fishes observed on underwater transects decreased significantly over the same period on fished reefs (36% decline) and in marine park zones that allow limited fishing (18% decline), but with a negligible overall change in no-fishing marine reserves. Populations of exploited fishes generally rose within marine reserves and declined outside the reserves, whereas unexploited species showed little difference in population trends within or outside reserves. Although changing climate and more precautionary fisheries management contribute to declining fish catches, fisheries-independent transect data suggest that excessive fishing also plays a major role. The large number of fishery stocks that remain unmanaged or have poor data, coupled with continuing declines in the stock biomass of managed fish species, indicate that Aichi Target 6 of the Convention on Biological Diversity (i.e. 'by 2020, all fish and invertebrate stocks and aquatic plants are managed and harvested sustainably') will not be achieved in Australia, or elsewhere. In order to maintain some naturally functioning food webs supported by large predators and associated ecosystem services in this era of changing climate, a greatly expanded network of effective, fully protected marine protected areas is needed that encompasses global marine biodiversity.

Adjacent areas covered in this chapter include the west coast of Sumatra, the Flores Sea, and the western edges of the Makassar Strait. This region is surrounded by Java and Bali to the south, Sumatra to the west, and Indonesian Borneo to the north, and covers approximately 1 million km2. The waters of the Sunda shelf are less than 100 m deep throughout, and most of the region is microtidal. The mountainous islands surrounding the Sunda shelf are home to approximately 150 million people. The monsoonal climate with high rainfall and runoff leads to high rates of terrigenous sedimentation. The Sunda shelf is dominated by fine siliciclastic sediments, except around coral reefs or straits with strong currents. Most coastlines are prograding rapidly, with localized cases of coastal erosion related to human activities. The marine biodiversity of western Indonesia is high, because of its proximity to the Southeast Asian biodiversity centre in eastern Indonesia and New Guinea. The dominant nearshore habitats are mangroves, seagrass beds, and coral reefs, all of which are threatened by land-based pollution and marine resource extraction. Of the 2.1 million ha of mangrove area present in western Indonesia in 1980, nearly 60% have since been destroyed for timber, plantations, or shrimp ponds. Similarly, about 50,000 km2 of coral reefs occur in western and central Indonesia, but half of these are in poor condition. Major environmental threats to the seas of western Indonesia stem from rural, industrial and domestic land-based pollution, and from a variety of marine resource extraction activities. Agricultural runoff, deforestation, and mining shed nutrients and sediments into nearshore waters. Likewise, untreated sewage and poorly controlled industrial effluents are discharged into rivers, and thence into nearshore marine environments. Landfill and over-extraction of groundwater lead to ground subsidence and flooding in coastal districts of major cities, causing a variety of health problems. Marine debris from both urban and rural sources causes a serious litter problem on many beaches in western Indonesia. The effects of land-based pollution on coral reefs are most severely demonstrated on the reefs of Jakarta Bay and the Thousand Islands. Marine resource extraction activities with major effects in western Indonesia include oil production, shipping and refining, capture fisheries, aquaculture, and coral mining. Western Indonesia produces vast amounts of oil and natural gas, and major petroleum shipping lanes run through the Strait of Malacca, South China Sea, Makassar and Lombok Straits. The major shallow water habitats of western Indonesia-mangroves, seagrass beds, and coral reefs-are all highly sensitive to oil pollution. Capture fisheries for both pelagic and demersal fish are severely overexploited throughout western Indonesia, despite two decades of warnings and the 1980 ban on trawlers in most of Indonesia. Fisheries' decline is further exacerbated by mangrove clearing, and by destructive fishing practices including blasting and cyanide fishing. Aquaculture has grown explosively in western Indonesia, and releases large fluxes of nutrients, organic detritus, antibiotics and other chemicals, and sediment into nearshore waters. Shrimp farms are the primary cause of mangrove destruction, contributing to coastal erosion. Coral mining for building stone remains a threat to coral reefs. Protective efforts include several large government projects, endangered species legislation, and a slowly growing system of marine protected areas. The Clean Rivers program (PROKASIH) has reduced discharge of industrial pollutants into nearshore waters, but is limited to major industries, ignoring pollution from small industries and domestic sources. Endangered species legislation nominally protects giant clams, marine turtles, dugongs, and other species, but implementation and enforcement are insufficient. Indonesia has established a system of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), with 1.1 million ha of MPAs in western Indonesia. Indonesia remains far behind its target of 30 million ha of MPAs by the year 2000. Furthermore, most MPAs do not have management plans; existing management efforts suffer from poor implementation. The recent economic and political turmoil in Indonesia bodes ill for marine environmental conditions in western Indonesia, as rapid economic return takes priority over environmental protection and conservation.",,381-404,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Science Inc.,,,,anthropogenic effect; environmental assessment; Indonesia; industrial development; Java Sea; South China Sea,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This work aims to cover the conservation of the phytolytic assembly in soils of the Iguaçu/Paraná National Park (PNI). Phytoliths are siliceous microparticles produced by grasses and some tree families, which at the end of the plant's life cycle are incorporated into the soil. The methodological procedures were based on field and laboratory activities. Twelve soil profiles were collected (trench 1, aluminum tube 1 and 10 edgings). The results made it possible to identify and understand the phytolytic distribution in the PNI. In the discussion, the correspondence of the morphologies and comparison of the results obtained is addressed, as well as the relationship with the literature. It was identified that the samples that presented the highest values in the phytolytic quantity were P1, T1, P4, P9, Fazenda Salinet, RPS, P8, P2, P5, P6, P3 and P7 respectively. It was determined that even the depths studied, tree and undergrowth vegetation always cohabited with prevalence of tree strata. However, it is noteworthy that vegetation variations occurred with moments of more and less dense forest, and with greater and lesser signs of humidi ty; having each point sampled peculiarities. It was concluded that differences occurred both in the Mixed Ombrophilous Forest and in the Seasonal Semideciduous Forest, as well as in the different sampled soils. © 2021, Universidade Federal de Pernambuco.

Most reserve-selection algorithms minimise the cost of the reserve system whilst aiming to meet specified biodiversity objectives. Here, we extend a widely-used selection algorithm, Marxan, to incorporate several important considerations related to biodiversity processes and management. First we relax the scorched earth assumption to allow conservation features in non-reserve zones to contribute explicitly to conservation objectives. To achieve this, we generate conservation targets at landscape scales rather than focusing purely on the representation of features within reserves. Second, we develop the notion of spatial dependencies further to incorporate spatial heterogeneity in the value of individual conservation features such as habitat types. We use the example of ontogenetic migrations of fish from mangroves to coral reefs because it nicely demonstrates how spatial ecological processes generate predictable heterogeneity in habitat value that should be considered in the reserve design process. Lastly, we show how habitat value can be disaggregated into ecosystem processes and services. Using a case study for the Belize Barrier Reef we compare reserve networks generated using our new approach with the results of traditional analyses. Consideration of the contribution of different protection zones, connectivity among habitats and more complex management goals resulted in up to a 52% increase in the mean biomass of commercially and ecologically-important fish species represented in the landscape. Our approach strengthens the ecological basis of reserve-design algorithms and might facilitate the uptake of ecosystem-based management into reserve design. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

To address the potential effects on ES provision, we propose a geospatial framework to identify and analyze the cumulative effects on terrestrial and freshwater ES. The framework includs an impact chain analysis based on ten pressures grouped into six categories (pollution, climate change, land-use change, overexploitation, land fragmentation, invasive species) and their single or multiple effects on five key ES of the Alpine environment (recreation, forest protection, CO2 sequestration, habitat maintenance, grassland biomass). Results show that the areas most affected by cumulative effects were located in major urban centers, in the Po Valley, Germany, Slovenia, and in coastal areas of the Adriatic Sea. The spatial coincidence analysis of pressure P-ES on IUCN protected sites showed that protection categories IV and V mostly had high P/high ES scores. Our approach will help in management and planning for mountain conservation aimed at reducing multi-pressure occurrences in transboundary environments. The framework can be used to identify areas with the highest ES provision, characterize areas with high stress from anthropogenic pressures, and examine the effects of pressures on protected areas. © 2020 The Author(s)",,,,,47,,Ecosyst.

During the 19th century, they were the target of intensive whaling that severely depleted the population. In recent times, after commercial whaling ended, sperm whales in the region remain vulnerable to multiple threats, especially potential entanglement in fishing gear, which may hinder their ability to recover from the whaling era. As a highly mobile, long-lived species, long-term analysis of the habitat use of sperm whales is necessary to establish effective conservation and management strategies. Here, contemporary (1985–2014) and historical (1830–1850) sperm whale habitat use off the Galápagos Islands was analysed and contrasted to the extent of the Galápagos Marine Reserve (GMR). Contemporary habitat use and its variability over time were modelled as a function of geographic, oceanographic, and topographic variables using generalized additive models. The fine-scale habitat (<50 km) used by sperm whales was associated with topographic (i.e. depth and slope) and oceanographic characteristics (i.e. relative sea surface temperature and standard deviation of sea surface temperature), but these preferences varied over time. While historical and contemporary data indicate that sperm whale habitat primarily occurred within the boundaries of the GMR, in recent years, whales were found up to 30.1% of the time outside the GMR, potentially overlapping with commercial fisheries operating in the area. The dynamic nature of the relationship of this nomadic species with its habitat highlights the need of large-scale conservation efforts across the Eastern Tropical Pacific region, including the wide-scale enforcement of regulations requiring the use of Automatic Identification System in fishing vessels, the promotion of on-board fisheries observer programmes, the development of adaptive management strategies, and international collaboration to identify and mitigate threats. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,1466-1481,,6,31,,Aquatic Conserv.

Connectivity is critical for dispersal of individuals from natal sites, colonisation of patches across a landscape by populations, the structuring of populations, and their persistence across metacommunities. Here, we present a replicable methodology for conservation and land-management practitioners to promote maximal functional connectivity for multiple taxa across a mixed land-use mosaic containing natural habitat patches. We used the maximal functional diversity present in three key taxa (trees, birds, and mammals) responsible for the persistence of forests and the provisioning of ecosystem function and services, in a mosaic landscape of natural, agricultural, and urban land-use practices to map probabilistic connectivity corridors. We used a hybrid of Circuit Theory, least-cost resistance pathways and pinch-points based on the traits and ecological parameters of a surrogate taxon to map functional connectivity across an anthropogenically-fragmented and critically endangered forest biome, the Indian Ocean Coastal Belt Forest of South Africa. By using functional diversity measures, rather than taxonomic species richness, we ensured that maximal ecosystem services were safeguarded, concurrently achieving high-priority conservation goals of protecting specialist, endangered, and range-restricted species and traits that may otherwise be lost through high turnover of generalists at the expense of specialist species. Mapping circuit/least-cost corridors and critical pinch-points in remnant natural, yet unprotected forested patches, highlighted priority habitat to be conserved for promoting maximal functional connectivity, cognisant of the restricted budgets available for conservation planning and landscape-level protection. Our approach simultaneously protects ecosystem services, threatened specialist species and traits, and range-restricted and endangered habitats, linking current Protected Areas while prioritising landscape features of connectivity importance to be conserved for land-management practitioners with limited budgets. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,190,,Landsc.

Investigating anthropogenic impacts on the persistence of biodiversity is key to management decision-making. Objectives: We investigated the influence of protected areas (PAs), agriculture and urbanisation on the occupancy of mammal communities in an anthropogenic matrix containing indigenous forest fragments of the Coastal Belt of southern KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Methods: We integrated camera-trap mammal data, land-use and human population density within occupancy models, and compared occupancy of individual species across the land-use mosaic. Results: We modelled occupancy of seven mammal species with sufficient naďve occupancy (> 0.20, range 0.25–0.87). The occupancy of Philantomba monticola was positively influenced by human population size and was higher within urban areas compared with PAs. Although human population size positively affected Hystrix africaeaustralis occupancy, it along with Atilax paludinosus had a lower occupancy within urban areas. Tragelaphus scriptus and Potamochoerus larvatus overall had higher and Sylvicapra grimmia had lower occupancies within PAs. Main conclusions: Species were variable in their response to the anthropogenic changes in the landscape. For example, occupancy of P. monticola was low within PAs but high in areas where change in land ownership and loss of habitat are threats. For other species, it appeared that the density of infrastructure of the urban landscape, rather than human population density, affected them negatively. However, seasonal differences within different management regimes also provided context-specific influences on occupancy and detectability. We emphasize the importance of natural vegetation patches within anthropogenic landscapes for maintaining native fauna, whilst stressing the value of temporally replicated, multi-species, regional-scale studies when making conservation decisions. © 2017, Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,59-76,,1,33,,Landsc.

This is a natural outcome of its strategic geographical location straddling both the Mediterranean and the Red Sea which constitute two of the major enclosed coastal seas in the world. Therefore, the problem of the protection of the marine environment in the Egyptian coastal zones has received an early and serious concern by the Egyptian authorities. Being a major tourist and recreation area and due to its exceptional ecological and aesthetic value, and as a result of a number of environmental pressures including rapid development and oil pollution, a development plan for the South Sinai coastal zone area was proposed within an integrated Environmental Management Plan of the Egyptian coastal zones along the Red Sea. Accordingly, the Gulf of Aqaba coast has been zoned into tourism development areas, protected areas, and National Parks. This will of course ensure that representative, economic and biologically important systems are set aside to guarantee the sustainability of the tourism developments in this unique area. Due to the repeated and lasting occurrence of oil pollution on the shoreline of the gulf which endanger both the high coral diversity and mangroves which are equally valuable and in need of protection, oil pollution combating arrangements are being established at the entrance to the Gulf of Aqaba. This paper aims to illustrate the Egyptian approach in the coastal zone management, with special emphasis on the coastal zones of South Sinai adjacent to the Gulf of Aqaba. © 1991.",,331-337,,C,23,,Mar.

This expansion has slowed over the last 50 years as agricultural production has intensified, largely through the use of petrochemical-based fertilisers. The mid-2000s saw a transition where oil production became unresponsive to the increased demand for petrochemicals, pushing up their price and that of their end-products, including fertilisers. Such oil supply constraints threaten to reverse previous agricultural intensification gains and increase pressure for the conversion of native ecosystems. Price-driven land and food speculation and the search for alternative energy sources also have the potential to increase the demand for land. This study aimed to measure the change in the rate of deforestation and to map the resultant impact on biodiversity as oil production became inelastic in 2005. Globally, an additional 290,000 km2 of forests was cleared in the period 2007-12 compared with 2000-2006, which is a net increase of 29% between the two periods. The areas of increased forest loss broadly corresponded with the areas of highest biodiversity. We tested for, but found little correspondence with large-scale, corporate land acquisitions. Statistically significant hotspots of increased threat to biodiversity generally lie in a band through the tropics, particularly in south-east Asia, Africa and Central America, with fertiliser consumption affected in hotspot areas. A review of the drivers in these hotspots indicated that non-subsistence growth factors underpin most land-cover change. We conclude that conservation efforts need to mitigate pressures from growth and agricultural extensification, and be aware that the rate of loss increased with oil supply constraint in tropical and sub-tropical regions, coinciding with the areas of highest biodiversity. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.",,147-155,,,196,,Biol.

The planet is urbanizing at a rapid pace, and 68% of the world’s population would live in cities by 2050 causing major challenges, such as urban heat islands, floods occurrences, environmental pollution, waste generation, and lack of wildlife habitats. Cities rely on natural landscapes and seascapes, including protected areas to provide basic ecosystem goods and services including food, clean air and water, and protection from floods, coastal storms, and other natural disasters. Nature-based solutions (NbSs) serve as an umbrella concept for various nature-based sustainability initiatives including a broader range of interventions and interpretations of green infrastructures and ecosystem-based adaptations. This chapter advocates the role of ecological urban design in providing sustainable solutions to major environmental challenges that society is facing and foreseeing in the upcoming decades as a result of rapid urban sprawl. Decisions about urban transformation should be guided by urban goals that are preferably in line with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals to encourage transformative and integrated initiatives. Sustainable urban planning and design (SUPD) aim to balance the environment with the sociocultural, economic, technical, legislative, and overall well-being of the society to fulfill all aspects of humans and environmental sustainability by the application of resilient technology, ecological engineering, and scientific approach. The goal of SUPD is to maintain a balance between the environment and the sociocultural, economic, technical, legislative, and general well-being of human society.

Yet, implementation of permanent fishery closures has often generated resource user conflicts that ultimately undermine conservation goals. Here we assessed the influence of an alternative and often more accepted measure – seasonal fish spawning closures – on large predatory fish and coastal food webs in the western Baltic Sea (Sweden). In spring 2017, we conducted a multivariable field survey in 11 seasonal closures and 11 paired references areas open to fishing. In each area, pike was sampled through angling, and perch and mesopredators through gillnet surveys. To assess trophic cascades, we measured zooplankton abundance and loss of tethered gammarids from predation. Catches per unit effort of northern pike (Esox lucius) – the main target species in recreational fisheries – were ca. 2.5 times higher per unit effort in closures than reference areas; an effect that may be caused by higher abundance and/or higher catchability of pike in the absence of fishing. Catch and weight per unit effort of the more common predator European perch (Perca fluviatilus), and the mesopredators roach (Rutilus rutilus) and three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) in survey nets were, however, unaffected by closures. Moreover, a previously hypothesized trophic cascade from perch to zooplankton via three-spined stickleback was supported by the analyses, but appeared independent of closures. Yet, predation risk for tethered gammarid amphipods (a prey of stickleback and an important grazer on macroalgae) was three times higher in fished areas than in closures; a cascading closure effect that may potentially be caused by small predatory fish being less active in protected areas to avoid pike predation. Overall, our results suggest that spawning closures impact pike abundance and/or behavior and could help limit the effects of fishing, but that more research is needed to disentangle i) what mechanism(s) that underlie the protection effect on pike catches, ii) the apparently weaker closure impacts on other fish species, as well as iii) the potential for cascading effects on lower trophic levels. Therefore, new seasonal spawning closures should be implemented in addition to (and not instead of) much-needed permanent closures, which have well-known effects on the wider ecosystem. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,263,,Fish.

However, these coastal ecosystems are confronted with a multitude of challenges stemming from both natural phenomena and human activities. Hence, acquiring a comprehensive understanding of coastal lagoon dynamics is imperative for safeguarding and ensuring the sustainability of these ecosystems, relying on discerning the intricate interplay between hydrodynamic and sedimentological factors and processes. In Morocco, the Khenifiss lagoon is recognized as the largest lagoon and the most significant wetland along the Atlantic coast, designated as a protected area under the Ramsar Convention since 1980. However, the lagoon is confronted with the challenge of inlet and channel narrowing due to heightened sediment transport and accumulation toward its interior, along with dune advancement. This paper aims to establish correlations between morphometry, hydrodynamic conditions, and surface sediment composition to categorize the main channel of Khenifiss lagoon according to sedimentary environmental conditions. This categorization aims to delineate zones characterized by high, moderate, and low energy levels. Such classification will offer valuable insights into the dynamic interactions governing the lagoon's ecosystem by identifying areas prone to resuspension and deposition. The study categorized the main channel of the Khenifiss lagoon into distinct zones based on hydrodynamic conditions. Areas with high energy levels, including the entrance zone and the narrowest central section, featured the highest current velocities, fostering conditions favoring the resuspension of fine materials. Zones with moderate energy levels, such as the downstream main channel and sinuous sections, exhibited moderate current velocities and a predominance of fine sand over medium sand fractions, along with observed reductions in current velocity. Areas characterized by low energy levels, encompassing the upstream main channel, are marked by slower current velocities and shallow depths, facilitating the deposition of fine and very fine sediment. Finally, areas with very low energy and calm conditions, well-protected from strong currents, prevent the reworking of sediments and facilitate their accumulation. This study highlights the importance of integrating sedimentological, hydrodynamic, and morphometric analyses as a valuable approach for monitoring coastal ecosystems and understanding the morphodynamics of coastal lagoons. This approach guides ecosystem management, such as targeted conservation efforts, erosion control, and habitat protection, while also supporting informed coastal development and adaptive management strategies to ensure the long-term sustainability and protection of the Khenifiss lagoon. © 2024 COSPAR",,2550-2568,,3,75,,Adv.

These water resources problems will certainly cause declining in water tables and degradation of groundwater quality, and will raise in the near future due to the climate change and the population growth. This study will focus on Wadi Fatimah basin, which is considered the main source of water supply for many cities and villages in Makkah Province and a valuable agricultural production source. The present study aims to evaluate the hydrogeological and hydrochemical aspects of groundwater evolution and vulnerability, by the integration between Geographic Information System (GIS), hydrochemical modeling of NETPATH, and DRASTIC model. In this study, static water levels were measured in 64 wells, and 59 water samples were obtained and analyzed for concentrations of major ions, trace elements, and potentially toxic elements (PTE). The total dissolved solids (TDS) ranged from 277 to 18,518 mg/L, with a mean of 2795 mg/L, and approximately 60% of the samples were brackish water, with TDS > 1000 mg/L. The groundwater samples fall within Na-Cl-SO4 and Ca–Mg–Cl-SO4 water types. The main processes affecting the groundwater chemistry in the area tend to be evaporation and reverse ion exchange. The changes in groundwater quality that could occur because of various geochemical processes (evolution and mixing phenomena) were modeled by NETPATH. The quantities of minerals (in mmol/Kg water) that dissolved or precipitated along the flow path and/or mixed with various sources such as rainwater and seawater were calculated. Sixty-four drilling wells were also used in generating a groundwater vulnerability map based on seven parameters of the DRASTIC model. The majority of the Quaternary aquifer in Wadi Fatimah basin was represented as low-to-moderately vulnerable zones (64%, i.e., protected areas). A small portion of the aquifer in the upstream of the Wadi was identified as the very highest vulnerable zone (about 4.7%). On the other hand, a relatively high groundwater vulnerability zone was observed in the scattered sectors of the region (about 31.3%, i.e., not protected areas). The validation of the DRASTIC map using the spatial distribution map of nitrate indicated that the generated vulnerability map in Wadi Fatimah basin can be acceptable. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,,,9,81,,Environ.

Marine and coastal protected areas (MCPAs) are an essential bastion of ecosystem services. Their special management and conservation status aims to ensure the maintenance of key ecosystem functions and the sustained supply of ecosystem services in the face of increasing pressures. This chapter deals with the contribution of Earth observation (EO) for the enhancement of knowledge-based conservation, management, and restoration policies in MCPAs, to ensure the sustainable provision of ecosystem services. H2020 European Project ECOPOTENTIAL has led to a novel unified framework for improving the monitoring and management of MCPAs, based on the use of EO. The framework constitutes a significant progress beyond the state of the art, due to its unique capacity to blend EO from remote sensing and field measurements. It also maximizes return on investments due to its capabilities for data mining and inclusion of versatile modeling approaches utilizing information from EO. These tools allow for assessing ecosystem service supply in current and future conditions, designing and executing needs assessment of new measurement protocols, and evaluating the requirements of new MCPAs. Open and interoperable access to data and knowledge will be ensured to researchers, managers, policy makers, and stakeholders by a GEO Ecosystem Virtual Laboratory Platform, fully integrated in GEOSS. To show how this unified framework is applied we showcase two MCPAs that include marine areas and coastal wetlands: Wadden Sea and Dońana, with specific focus on their relevance for bird conservation. © 2022 American Geophysical Union.",,43-65,,,,,,,,,,,wiley,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Earth Obs.

The taxa were assessed using the IUCN guidelines and criteria to evaluate their conservation status. Assessed taxa are either endemic to the coast of Lebanon, the Beqaa, the mountain ranges of Mount Lebanon, Anti-Lebanon and Mount Hermon. Most of the species assessed were in the Endangered category (54), followed by the Vulnerable (20), Critically Endangered (16), Least Concern (7), Near Threatened (2) and Data deficient (1). The rarity of these endemic taxa was illustrated by the fact that 29% had an AOO inferior or equal to 20 km2. Unregulated urbanisation, road construction, quarries, forest fires and overgrazing constituted the main causes for the decrease of many endemic species. Most of the threatened taxa occurred in rocky habitats, woodlands and shrublands of the supra (20), montane (36), oro-Mediterranean (28) belts. Around 81% and 70% of the taxa respectively listed as CR and EN were located in the montane and oro-Mediterranean belts. Only 2 taxa occurred in coastal habitats and only 8 were related to wetlands. Thirty-five of the threatened taxa were included in at least one protected area, while 17 were present in two protected areas. Mount Hermon hosted 17 threatened taxa, followed by Horsh Ehden (9), Jabal Moussa (8), Chouf Biosphere (7), Tannourine (6), Ehmej el-Dichar (3), Ras Chaqaa (1) and Yammoune (1). The distribution of the threatened taxa within protected areas highlighted the fact that some habitats are underrepresented in the network of natural reserves in Lebanon. High plateaus of the oro-Mediterranean belt over 2000 m were the less protected habitats. The regions of Mounts Makmel, Mneitre, Sannine and Kneisse particularly lacked protection, as well Anti-Lebanon range. These areas should be targeted in priority for conservation actions such as the creation of protected areas. Due to the limited size of the country and its high density in human population, most of the threats are widespread but vary depending on the altitudinal belt. © 2022 Foundation Pro Herbario Mediterraneo.

Trawlers generally complied with the closure but maintained overall effort by trawling more intensely outside of the no-trawl zone, especially near its borders and closer to shore. We detected stronger than expected fishing effort in a sub-region within the protected area, suggesting that this location should be closely monitored for compliance.

Integrated assessments of ocean health are needed to understand the condition of a range of benefits that humans derive from marine systems and to evaluate where attention should be focused to improve the health of these systems. Here we describe the first such assessment for Brazil at both national and state levels. We applied the Ocean Health Index framework, which evaluates ten public goals for healthy oceans. Despite refinements of input data and model formulations, the national score of 60 (out of 100) was highly congruent with the previous global assessment for Brazil of 62. Variability in scores among coastal states was most striking for goals related to mariculture, protected areas, tourism, and clean waters. Extractive goals, including Food Provision, received low scores relative to habitat-related goals, such as Biodiversity. This study demonstrates the applicability of the Ocean Health Index at a regional scale, and its usefulness in highlighting existing data and knowledge gaps and identifying key policy and management recommendations. To improve Brazil's ocean health, this study suggests that future actions should focus on: enhancing fisheries management, expanding marine protected areas, and monitoring coastal habitats. © 2014 Elfes et al.",,,,4,9,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,"article; biological model; Brazil; carbon storage; conservation biology; demography; Demography; environmental health; environmental monitoring; environmental protection; female; Female; fishery management; food handling; human; Humans; male; Male; mariculture; Models, Biological; Oceans and Seas; recreation; regionalization; sea; tourism; water",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Its water pollution history started quite early with substances and energy introduced to the marine environment resulting in such deleterious effects as harm to living resources, hazards to human health and hindrance to marine activities including fishing, impairment of quality for use of seawater and reduction of amenities. The pollution of marine regions from land-based sources is a serious threat to the protection of the marine environment, including marine protected areas. It is difficult to tackle because of the diverse pressures and impacts that cause the pollution. Indeed, around 80 % of the pollution of the marine environment comes from land-based sources, mainly municipal, industrial and agricultural wastes and run-off. One may think of the discharge of synthetic substances, no synthetic substances and nutrient or organic matter enrichment in river basins1 and in the marine environment. Land-based pollution reaches the marine environment either from rivers or from direct discharges into coastal waters. The pollution of rivers and consequently of the sea affects both human health and ecosystems. Since these effects can be irreversible, prevention is all the more important. Millions of tons of pollutants are being discharged into the Mediterranean Sea every year from industrial activities in the countries bordering the Mediterranean region. So, making these data public will help to sensitize national governments about the problem so that action will be taken to reduce and eliminate pollution from land-based sources. It will also alert public opinion which could influence national authorities to live up to their obligations under international conventions and protocols. The major sources of pollution are metal industries, oil refineries and industry, tanneries, organic and inorganic chemical industry and food processing industry. Another major source of pollution is the hydrocarbon inputs from point sources which could be added to the sea-based oil pollution from tankers (Colasimone 2006). Recognizing the increasing adverse effects of human activities on the Mediterranean Sea, 16 Mediterranean countries and the European Union decided, under the auspices of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), in 1975, to set up the Mediterranean Action Plan (MAP). The Barcelona Convention for the Protection of the Mediterranean Sea against Pollution, adopted 1 year later, aimed to support the collective efforts of Mediterranean States and the European Union against marine pollution (The Mediterranean Information Office for Environ-ment (MIO 2005)). Based on the action plan, many measures followed targeting de-pollution of its waters. This chapter highlights all possible pollution sources (according to the available information) degrading the Mediterranean Sea water and their relation towards threatening this shared Mediterranean Sea environment. Thereafter, certain specific soft and hard measures will be recommended for implementation for all Mediterranean countries towards the de-pollution of the sea. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.

Though there is increased interest and advocation for transboundary conservation initiatives around the world, there remains limited understanding of how to best support their success through coordinated policies. This is especially true for marine resources and seascapes, where management efforts are often more difficult and complicated to implement. This study addresses these key gaps through a policy analysis focusing on the Sulu-Sulawesi Seascape as a case study. Indonesian, Malaysian, and Philippine policies related to fisheries, coastal zones and marine protected areas, and environmental quality were examined to explore their similarities and differences across various policy elements important to facilitating more consistent and collaborative management across scales. Assessing policy alignment and disparateness may help highlight potentially prominent barriers to and opportunities for transboundary coordination that would be beneficial to acknowledge and address in future planning. The analyses focused on elements such as the policies’ authorities, restrictions, enforcement, and participation opportunities, among others. Analysis results emphasize that policies and management within Sulu-Sulawesi could benefit from greater adaptability to diverse community needs, participatory processes, and governance integration and standardization. These findings contribute to gaps in knowledge regarding how policy alignment may impact transboundary conservation and may help inform the best practices for increasing the social and environmental success of transboundary conservation initiatives in Sulu-Sulawesi and other transboundary marine systems. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,171,,Mar.

Over- or under-predictions are frequent, leading to uncertainty in spatial management measures, particularly for highly mobile and data-poor species. Here we developed a ‘Combined Model for Accurate Prediction’ to accurately predict the distribution of data-poor and rare species. This modelling framework aims to improve the accuracy of both predicted ‘core’ and ‘unsuitable’ habitats, to help support managers with spatial protection measures. We tested the combined modelling approach on 11 data-poor and rare diadromous fish during their at-sea life history phase and used the combined model to analyse the adequacy of existing marine protected areas (MPAs) for these fish. The combined modelling approach modelled both ‘core’ and ‘unsuitable’ habitats with high accuracy. Of the seven diadromous species modelled, most MPAs designated to protect diadromous fish are outside their core habitats. Furthermore, when their core habitat was within an MPA, only 50% of this area was designated to protect them. These results highlight inadequate protection of the existing networks of MPAs for protected and threatened species. Synthesis and applications. Being able to accurately model species distribution is critical to reliable and transparent biodiversity and conservation assessments. By modelling accurate ‘core’ and ‘unsuitable’ habitats with models that minimise omission and commission rates respectively, conservation measures could be targeted in specific spatial areas that maximise the protection of rare and poorly detected species. This method therefore helps minimise impacts on stakeholders, while providing managers with increased confidence in the model predictions. © 2024 The Authors.

Ecological resilience is a useful management concept where an ecosystem risks losing its ability to recover, potentially driving itself to an undesirable state, which for atoll shorelines is beach erosion without recovery, and mangrove dieback. This study used spatial change analysis to assess resilience condition indicators for lagoon shore habitats of an atoll protected area, methods developed in the region to facilitate improved community based assessment and management decision making. The lagoon shore was the focus, being potentially more vulnerable to human impacts owing to higher population densities, and potentially more vulnerable to relative sea level rise owing low gradients and elevations. Results showed mangrove vegetation to be in healthy condition, and spatial analysis of coastal change found that the mangrove area expanded 1998–2013, increasing by 17%, at a rate of 604?m2 per year. Results from the southern beach coast showed littoral vegetation to be in poor condition, with profile evidence of recent erosion, confirmed by spatial analysis results of loss of a previous progradation trend. Spatial analysis results therefore confirmed the veracity of community methods for assessing mangrove and beach condition, allowing confidence in their use in assessment of resilience state and rehabilitation needs. Sediment supply is helpful to coastal resilience, and analysis of beach sand found it to be 99.9% carbonate, derived from foraminifera and fragmented shell and coral, and continued supply is essential to maintain resilience. Beach sediment from such biogenic sources is derived from offshore reefs, making resilience assessment and monitoring of those habitats a further priority. Suitable timeframes are needed for managers to assess resilience, necessitating a need for longer term monitoring projects in the region. © 2016 The Author(s)",,321-330,,,75,,Ecol.

The marine environment along the Red Sea coast of Egypt is distinguished by a high biodiversity with key marine ecosystems such as seagrasses meadows, coral reefs, and mangroves that can play a role in blue carbon ecosystems. To understand the capacity of the seagrasses to store carbon, this study aims at quantifying the vertical distribution of the organic carbon density (OCD) and the carbon sequestration potential (CSR) and evaluate the economic feasibility of seagrasses vegetation as a tool for mitigating climate change. Two sediment cores were sampled from vegetated areas (inhabited with seagrasses species: Thalassia hemprichii) and one core from a non-vegetated area (for comparison) from three nearshore locations within Wadi El Gemal Protected Area, Red Sea Egypt. The OCD in the vegetated areas increased with depth and showed higher capacities of carbon storage compared to the non-vegetated area. The overall calculated CSR for seagrasses in Wadi El-Gemal is 341.65 g C m?2 yr?1. These findings support the key role of seagrasses to mitigate climate change through CO2 sequestration and return an equivalent of 6,000 to 11,000 USD per year for every 100 hectares in monetary value. This highlights the importance of the conservation and restoration of seagrasses along the Red Sea coast and the potential of blue carbon finance that can be leveraged to meet national-level climate mitigation strategies and policies in Egypt.

This article studies the effect of recruitment by coral and macroalgae on the resilience of grazed reef ecosystems. In particular, we focus on how larval connectivity affects regime shifts between alternative assemblages that are dominated either by corals or by macroalgae. Using a model with bistability dynamics, we show that recruitment of coral larvae erodes the resilience of a macroalgae-dominated ecosystem when grazing is high, but has negligible effect when grazing is low. Conversely, recruitment by macroalgae erodes the resilience of a coral-dominated ecosystem when grazing is low, leading to a regime shift to macroalgae. Thus, spillover of coral recruits from highly protected areas will not restore coral cover or prevent flips to macroalgae in the surrounding seascape if grazing levels in these areas are depleted, but may be pivotal for re-building coral populations if grazing is high. Fishing restrictions and the re-introduction of herbivores should therefore be a prime conservation objective for preventing undesirable regime shifts. Connectivity by some components of coral reef assemblages (e.g., macroalgae, pathogens, crown-of-thorns starfish) may be detrimental to sustaining reefs, especially where overfishing and other drivers have eroded their resilience, making them more vulnerable to a regime shift. © Springer-Verlag 2009.",,949-957,,4,28,,Coral Reefs,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Acanthaster planci; Anthozoa; Asteroidea; colonization; coral reef; grazing; Herbivory; Larval connectivity; larval transport; metapopulation; population structure; protected area; Recruitment; Regime shifts; Resilience; species richness; Threshold dynamics,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We quantified the global protection of elevational gradients by analyzing the elevational distributions of 44,155 PAs in 1,010 mountain ranges using the highest resolution digital elevation models available. We show that, on average, mountain ranges in Africa and Asia have the lowest elevational protection, ranges in Europe and South America have intermediate elevational protection, and ranges in North America and Oceania have the highest elevational protection. We use the Convention on Biological Diversity’s Aichi Target 11 to assess the proportion of elevational gradients meeting the 17% suggested minimum target and examine how different protection categories contribute to elevational protection. When considering only strict PAs [International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) categories I–IV, n = 24,706], nearly 40% of ranges do not contain any PAs, roughly half fail to meet the 17% target at any elevation, and ?75% fail to meet the target throughout ?50% of the elevational gradient. Observed elevational protection is well below optimal, and frequently below a null model of elevational protection. Including less stringent PAs (IUCN categories V–VI and nondesignated PAs, n = 19,449) significantly enhances elevational protection for most continents, but several highly biodiverse ranges require new or expanded PAs to increase elevational protection. Ensuring conservation outcomes for PAs with lower IUCN designations as well as strategically placing PAs to better represent and connect elevational gradients will enhance ecological representation and facilitate species range shifts under climate change. © 2018 National Academy of Sciences.

The St. Joseph Atoll, Seychelles, has been under consideration for MPA designation due to the presence of multiple threatened and important species. This study aimed to assess the nursery role of this isolated ecosystem for Vulnerable (IUCN) porcupine rays Urogymnus asperrimus. Twenty porcupine rays were tagged with VEMCO transmitters and their movements passively monitored for a 2.5-year period using an array of 88 acoustic receivers. The majority (71%) of porcupine rays displayed medium (RI: 0.34–0.66) to high (RI: 0.67–1) levels of residency and 82% of individuals were detected in the atoll for periods close to or exceeding one year. Horizontal movements were limited as small home ranges and activity spaces were identified (mean of 0.65km2 and 4.35km2 respectively). General linear mixed models highlighted that home range size increased with disc-width and that there was dispersal from the atoll over time.

Privately protected areas are vital to meeting this target and establishing an ecologically representative and well-connected National Reserve System on land in Australia. As a federated nation, most public and privately protected areas (especially conservation covenants) are established under state or territory (i.e. subnational) legislation, as opposed to national legislation. This paper conducts a review of changes in policy and practice for private land conservation in the state of New South Wales (NSW) that has led to a marked acceleration in the establishment of privately protected areas since 2017. The historical average rate at which privately protected areas were being established in NSW under various schemes prior to the changes in 2017 was about 50 agreements and 12,000 hectares per annum. The new Biodiversity Conservation Act 2016, the Biodiversity Conservation Trust of NSW (BCT), and increased NSW Government funding commenced in August 2017. Since then, the rate of establishment of privately protected areas has accelerated to more than 100 agreements and 45,000 hectares per annum. Not only has the rate of establishment more than tripled (by area) but many more privately protected areas are being established in higher priority bioregions, and the BCT is now able to provide better financial and technical support to privately protected areas, leading to better conservation outcomes overall. Key changes that have strengthened the framework for establishing and managing privately protected areas in NSW include a guide for strategic investment; institutional arrangements that foster effective governance, trust and transparency; substantive NSW Government funding; an accumulating endowment fund model; in-perpetuity payments; and faster and more targeted delivery mechanisms. The paper highlights features that could be adopted in other jurisdictions in Australia to support the vital role that privately protected areas must play in achieving commitments to nature conservation.

The Long-Term Monitoring Program (LTMP) of the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) is one of the world's longest running and most comprehensive coral reef monitoring programs, having documented the status and trends of Great Barrier Reef coral and reef fish assemblages over the last 32 years. The LTMP uses standard operating procedures to determine reef condition: broad-scale manta tow surveys of entire reef perimeters combined with intensive SCUBA surveys at permanently marked sites. This unique dataset has provided critical and reliable information about the status of the Great Barrier Reef by: defining and tracking spatio-temporal patterns in the distribution and abundance of fish and benthic assemblages; documenting disturbance regimes and their impacts upon reef status; and demonstrating the conservation benefits of the implementation and expansion of no-take marine reserves within the Marine Park. The long-term dataset, which is publicly available, has also been widely used to address fundamental ecological questions. Examples of key studies include: the role of herbivorous fishes in preventing phase shifts on coral reefs, and how heat stress has delayed coral recovery. Information from the LTMP directly informs management agencies about the status and trends of reef health through regular web-based reporting, direct consultation, peer-reviewed papers, conference presentations and provision of information for the five-yearly Outlook Report produced by the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority for the Australian Government. © 2020",,,,,252,,Biol.

Coral reef fish assemblages are functionally important for reef health and these are most commonly monitored using underwater visual surveys (UVS) by divers. In addition to estimating numbers, most programs also collect estimates of fish lengths to allow calculation of biomass, an important determinant of a fish's functional impact. However, diver surveys may be biased because fishes may either avoid or are attracted to divers and the process of estimating fish length could result in fish counts that differ from those made without length estimations. Here we investigated whether (1) general diver disturbance and (2) the additional task of estimating fish lengths affected estimates of reef fish abundance and species richness during UVS, and for how long. Initial estimates of abundance and species richness were significantly higher than those made on the same section of reef after diver disturbance. However, there was no evidence that estimating fish lengths at the same time as abundance resulted in counts different from those made when estimating abundance alone. Similarly, there was little consistent bias among observers. Estimates of the time for fish taxa that avoided divers after initial contact to return to initial levels of abundance varied from three to 17 h, with one group of exploited fishes showing initial attraction to divers that declined over the study period. Our finding that many reef fishes may disperse for such long periods after initial contact with divers suggests that monitoring programs should take great care to minimise diver disturbance prior to surveys.",,,,,6,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000434231500010,,,,,,,ABUNDANCE; CENSUS TECHNIQUES; Diver disturbance; EVOLUTIONARY HISTORY; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; HERBIVOROUS GRAZING FISHES; MARINE RESERVE; MID-SHELF; Monitoring; Reef fishes; SIZE-STRUCTURE; STRIP TRANSECT; Underwater visual surveys; UNDERWATER VISUAL SURVEYS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The regular presence of sea lions on the island is not only a touristic attraction in the region, but also a problem to the fishery community. This community faces economic impacts in its activities due to fish depredation caused by sea lions. Because of this issue, the perceptions and attitudes of different stakeholders from the region are important to be considered by managers, so that a realistic and decentralized action plan can be designed. The goal of this study was to analyze how different local stakeholders perceived the Wildlife Refuge of Ilha dos Lobos. Additionally, how these stakeholders differed from each other in terms of attitudes, knowledge and perceptions. In October 2011, January and March 2012, face-to-face interview surveys were conducted with fishermen and tourists, and drop-off questionnaires surveys with business, and tourism professional and teachers, in a total of 150 questionnaires, 30 for each group. The results indicated existence of differences across the five stakeholder groups. It was also suggested that non-direct stakeholders had a more favorable view of the Wildlife Refuge of Ilha dos Lobos and the sea lion, whereas direct stakeholder (the fishermen) saw it as an obstacle to their fisheries activities. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,45-51,,,45,,Mar.

As the climate changes, protected lands could provide increased resilience to coastal communities, yet climate change also poses a threat to the continued existence and healthy functioning of these ecosystems. The objectives of this research are to characterize the distribution and types of coastal protected lands in the eastern United States, estimate their exposure to sea level rise, evaluate the potential impact of this exposure on associated ecosystem services, and then discuss appropriate adaptation measures. For this, we construct an inventory of coastal protected lands in shoreline counties of US states along the Atlantic. We summarize their ownership and land cover and evaluate their exposure to a 3-foot (0.91 m) rise in sea level. We find substantial variation in the amount of lands protected in coastal shoreline counties, from a high of 34 percent in Florida to a low of 7 percent in Pennsylvania. Federal ownership is greatest in the South, whereas state ownership dominates in the Mid-Atlantic. Private groups own large shares of protected lands in Maine, New Hampshire, Delaware, and Maryland. Moving south, dominant land covers in protected areas shift from forests to wetlands. We find that one quarter of protected lands in shoreline counties will be affected by 3 feet of sea level rise, with substantial heterogeneity in exposure across states and greater impacts in southern states. Almost 50 percent of federal lands and around 25 percent of state lands will be affected. While substantial proportions of estuarine wetlands and unconsolidated shore (beaches and dunes) are currently protected and provide key coastal ecosystem services, 95 and 91 percent of these protected systems, respectively, will be affected by 3 feet of sea level rise. We discuss the potential consequences and the associated reductions in ecosystem service provisioning from sea level rise in the context of current funding and adaptation planning for conservation. We find that some of the states facing the greatest challenges are those lacking plans and funding. The large heterogeneity in ownership, land covers, and funding across states suggests that adaptation policies for coastal protected lands will need to be tailored to the local context; a one-size-fits-all approach is unlikely to be as effective. © 2016",,118-130,,,137,,Ocean Coast.

Evidence of the effectiveness of these programs is, however, decidedly mixed. This research examines the relationship between livelihoods, conservation, and wellbeing among nearshore fishers in Port Antonio, Jamaica, in the context of a recently established marine no-take area. The East Portland Fish Sanctuary was established in 2016 with the aim of supporting the recovery of depleted nearshore fish stocks, marine habitats, and mitigating impacts on local communities and fishers through a range of activities. Mitigation of impacts included efforts to shift pressure from overexploited nearshore fish stocks to offshore resources and to provide support to fishers for training and opportunities to earn income in the tourism sector. The results suggest that additional sources of income tended to enhance the wellbeing of fishers across several dimensions but that it also contributed to additional pressure on nearshore resources. Furthermore, neither tourism nor offshore fishing appear to be particularly promising in terms of their ability to deliver “win-win” outcomes for conservation and wellbeing. Instead, the results suggest that the impacts of different types of alternative livelihoods on conservation and wellbeing are highly variable and perhaps that efforts should be redirected to supporting efforts to provide suitable and acceptable alternatives to spearfishing which appears to have one of the largest overall impacts on individual harvest rates. © The Author(s) 2022.",,78-96,,1,1,,Coast.

Protection of the seabed is predominantly through establishment of marine protected area (MPA) networks, but their emphasis on biodiversity may limit their carbon value. The United Kingdom has one of the most extensive networks of MPAs in the world, yet damaging human activities are excluded from only a small portion. We calculate that full protection of the MPA network would offer limited carbon benefit, due to below average organic carbon stocks and disturbance from mobile fishing gears when compared to the entire U.K. seabed. We find that inshore exclusion zones (where mobile gears are restricted from nearshore areas to benefit biodiversity and low-impact fishers) could offer greater carbon benefits compared to MPAs.

This study examined seafood waste in Namibia, a country with a large commercial fishing industry but limited baseline data on seafood waste. To gain insight into seafood wastage and waste management practices, structured interviews were conducted with production managers at various onshore seafood processing facilities in Namibia representing about 62% of the onshore seafood processing facilities in Namibia. Some of these companies also process at sea aboard fishing vessels, so we obtained information on offshore processing methods as well to better understand seafood wastage from seafood processing in Namibia. Total landings data for commercially exploited species were also analysed and converted to total catch weight to quantify seafood wastage. The majority (52.6%) of the surveyed processing facilities process hake as their target species. Monkfish processing facilities were found to have the highest proportion of waste (65.5%). Seafood processing facilities generated approximately 71 176.13 t (15.2%) of waste per weight of landed products in 2018. Gonads and heads of fish were the most common parts which were not processed into value-added products and were hence the main contributors as seafood waste. Survey results indicated that the bulk of Namibian seafood processing facilities (63.2%) do not process their seafood waste. Reasons for not processing seafood waste in Namibia include prolonged fishing days, especially on freezer vessels that spent 40 days at sea on average and process the catches at sea; inadequate storage facilities aboard the fishing vessels; lack of seafood waste processing equipment and expertise at both onshore and offshore facilities; and limited demand for products that would be generated from seafood waste. This study provides insight into seafood wastage in Namibia, particularly quantities of wastage and waste composition, as well as reasons for seafood waste generation. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,199,,Ocean Coast.

Using questionnaires and interviews with 53 knowledgeable stakeholders of Oregon’s marine reserve system, we explored whether measuring trust and distrust generated similar results and how interviewees arrived at trust and distrust ratings. Paired trust-distrust ratings across eight trust targets supported a hypothesized difference in mean trust and reverse-coded distrust. However, qualitative findings provided evidence that interviewees relied on multiple conceptualizations of the relationship between trust and distrust and uncovered three critical issues. At times, trust and distrust ratings referred to different actions, individuals, and word meanings.

While participatory approaches provide local people a role in telling their own story and enable them to contribute to conservation and development processes, it is unclear how much consideration local people's opinions receive within the framework of a participatory process that exists to meet the specific goals and objectives of conservation programs. This paper evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of the participatory approach used in an applied research program conducted in three ejido communities in the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve on the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. The research program used community mapping, historical matrices, institutional diagramming, seasonal calendars, semi-structured interviewing and other community-level reflection techniques to assess the complex interrelationships among population growth, migration, tenure regimes, and land-use practices in rural communities bordering the reserve. The program also sought to build local capacity and support for land-use planning and conservation programs. While the paper acknowledges the critical benefits of local participation it also questions the compatibility of this approach with conservation programs administered by conservation organizations as they are currently structured.

We designed a parsimonious, per-recruit model to evaluate the potential effects of seven time-closure scenarios implemented during the spawning season on egg-production-per-recruit (EPR; a conservation metric) and yield-per-recruit (YPR; a fisheries metric) of Gulf corvina (Cynoscion othonopterus), a vulnerable marine fish that experiences persistent overfishing at its only known spawning grounds in the Gulf of California, Mexico. Five of seven scenarios provided measurable increases in EPR (11-48%) and were accompanied by proportional increases in YPR (29-36%) that resulted in a sustainable fishery. Increased mortality of juveniles and small adults through targeted fishing or as bycatch in other fisheries, however, would Erode both the fisheries and conservation benefits of these time closures. Our results demonstrate that information on spawning and fishing activities can be combined with stakeholder input to identify regulations that permit the sustainable harvesting of FSAs. Furthermore, the implementation of brief, temporal fishing effort restrictions can represent a viable, less restrictive alternative to marine protected areas for the management of FSAs. © 2019 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea 2019.

The first section briefly presents the characteristics of the Arctic Ocean ecosystems, that make them particularly vulnerable and which currently are under very significant stress due to the effects of climate change. The second section deals with the analysis of the global international legal framework applicable to marine protected areas in the Arctic Ocean, which for now is the one offered by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea. Next, the third section focuses on the study of the scope of international legal instruments of a sectoral nature that promote the designation of marine protected areas as well as their adaptation to the characteristics of this polar space. Its study is based on the triple perspective of international environmental protection, fisheries regulation and maritime navigation. The fourth section is devoted, with a regional approach, to the review of the work carried out within the framework of the Arctic Council, mainly through the Working Group on Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna and the Working Group on Protection of Arctic Marine Environment.

These result from alterations in the structure and patterns of interaction of the ecosystem, often with negative consequences in terms of losses of ecosystem function and the extinction of species. As a result, establishing protected areas as Brazil's Extractive Reserves (Resex) is a necessity. Ecological networks can be used as a tool to assess whether the Resex are effective in conserving marine biodiversity and the livelihoods of fishers. By analysing the structure of networks, e.g., their nestedness and modularity, it is possible to understand how species interact with each other, both directly and indirectly. The aim of this study was to analyse and compare the interactions and the management activities affecting fishers and fish at the Canavieiras Resex. The data were collected between April and August 2012 through semi-structured interviews with fishers to identify their target species and the fishing gear that they use to identify the structural patterns of the fish-fisherman, fish-guilds, and functional-group-guilds networks. The target species were Centropomus spp., Lutjanus jocu, Eugerres brasilianus and Mugil spp. Cast nets and trammel nets were the types of fishing gear that were most frequently used. High nestedness and significative modularity patterns were observed in the networks, indicating that generalist and specialist fishers primarily capture their target species. These patterns also indicate the extent of harvesting pressure on these fish. The fishers who use these networks include a high level of fish biodiversity in their catches. The structural pattern that was found implied that fishing pressure on these species, coupled with a lack of management tools, has created a situation in which priority must be given to the development of scientific conservation techniques and sustainable management plans. © 2014.",,106-114,,,104,,Ocean Coast.

Adaptive management is a tool which should be used not only to change a system, but also to learn about the system"". It recognizes the need for management decisions to examine economic, social and environmental values in an integrated way; taking into account the presence of many diverse stakeholders in environmental management issues and the uncertainty inherent in environmental processes. This paradigm has become fundamental to environmental management over the last 4 decades. Many environmental organizations have incorporated adaptive management schemes into their programs, but the dialogue between projects and programs has been limited due to a lack of standard lexicon for biodiversity conservation management. This has limited the possibility for practitioners to learn from other experiences, causing a repetition of trials and errors. Open Standards for the Practice of Conservation (OS) were developed as response to this problem, with the collaboration of many environmental organizations working together to create a common vocabulary in order to share experiences and adapt methodologies. More and more organizations across Europe are starting to use OS. In 2007, the first adaptive management training using the OS was organized in Europe. Since then a network of areas and people practicing the OS emerged and in January 2011 trained professionals from various European environmental organizations officially launched the European Conservation Coaches Network (CCNET Europe), with a special Mediterranean section. Many sites are now practicing adaptive management using the OS, including the Axios Delta (Greece), Muntanya d'Alinya (Catalunya, Spain), the Tour du Valat (Camargue, France) and the Specially Protected Areas of Mediterranean Importance (SPAMI) in Italy. Each project is at a different phase of implementation from management plan development to implementation. We have seen that the OS are compatible and complementary to Natura 2000 sites. The advantages that have been seen in the sites include: such as promoting participatory processes, taking into account the cause - effect relationships, designs strategies focusing on the abatement of prioritized threats, and prioritizes strategies and actions. The OS management plans are anchored in biological targets and these targets can allow Natura 2000 sites to move beyond the limits of habitats or species, and include ecological process and habitat fragmentation as well. Despite these positive aspects, we have encountered several obstacles in our application of the OS including the need for more qualified facilitators/coaches, the lack of training materials and computer software in local languages and the important time/human resource needs implicated during the process. These difficulties are currently being addressed by the CCNET Europe through the training of coaches and the establishment of a website to share experiences and learn from others across Europe.",,123-134,,,1,,,,,,,,Middle East Technical University,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Proc.

Since the lagoon and its watershed are within an environmental special protection area, planning preventive and mitigative measures toward water quantity and quality, including groundwater, is crucial. Since an important step in such a study is the generation of vulnerability map of groundwater pollution, this study aims at the generation of an intrinsic groundwater vulnerability map and its assessment for the first time in the study area based on the DRASTIC method. Since the DRASTIC method requires recharge rates for the calculation of groundwater pollution potential index, these were obtained from a previous modeling study conducted in the same area, where SWAT model was used. The intrinsic vulnerability maps generated were overlaid with current land-use maps to evaluate actual groundwater pollution risk.

Scomberomorus cavalla, Lutjanus campechanus, Myliobatidae, and Scomberomorus maculatus had the highest cultural value. The cultural value was related to economic profit, age, and even first age of fishing in fisher from some communities.

Although DFMPAs are widespread globally, their potential role in the protection of marine habitats, species, and ecosystems has not been well studied. In 2012 and 2013, we conducted remotely operated vehicle (ROV) surveys of marine communities at a military DFMPA closed to all civilian access since 2010 and an adjacent fished reference site at San Clemente Island, the southernmost of California’s Channel Islands. We used data extracted from ROV imagery to compare density and biomass of focal species, as well as biodiversity and community composition, between the two sites. Generalized linear modeling indicated that both density and biomass of California sheephead (Semicossyphus pulcher) were significantly higher inside the DFMPA. Biomass of ocean whitefish (Caulolatilus princeps) was also significantly higher inside the DFMPA. However, species richness and Shannon-Weaver diversity were not significantly higher inside the DFMPA, and overall fish community composition did not differ significantly between sites. Demonstrable differences between the DFMPA and fished site for two highly sought-after species hint at early potential benefits of protection, though the lack of differences in the broader community suggests that a longer trajectory of recovery may be required for other species. A more comprehensive understanding of the potential conservation benefits of DFMPAs is important in the context of marine spatial planning and global marine conservation objectives. © 2020 Esgro et al.

This technique is widely employed worldwide, and in México, the majority of deer abundance estimates have been made using this tool. However, for mule deer (Odocoileus hemonious) in México, there is no data on the persistence of pellet groups, and there is only one study on white-tailed deer. The pellet group counting technique has two main methods: a) ""Fecal Standing Crop,"" where the accumulated pellet groups in plots are counted in a single visit, and b) ""Fecal Accumulation Rate,"" which estimates density based on the accumulation of new fecal groups between two sampling periods, initially requiring the removal of all fecal groups from plots and counting again after some time. Both methods require knowing the pellet group disappearance rate during the pellet group accumulation period. This information is fundamental to understanding the ecology and making precise decisions in the management and conservation of mammals, such as mule deer, a species that is declining in some regions of México. Due to the lack of studies on the persistence of pellet group of mule deer in México, the aim of this study was to determine the persistence of mule deer fecal groups and their color changes over time, to establish pellet accumulation periods for estimating population abundances without biases when using this technique in arid habitats. We monitored 102 fecal groups for four years in the Chihuahuan Desert, finding that pellet groups are only lost during the summer rainy season. All pellet groups deposited between October and May were present, and all pellet groups turned white only after the first summer rainy season. The persistence of pellet groups was similar across seasons (fall, winter, spring) and deposition years (2004 to 2006). Some pellet groups persisted for over four years. The data suggest that the only source of degradation of pellet groups is summer rains, and no degradation by biological agents, such as fungi or insects, was observed. In summary, in arid areas, to estimate deer use or density throughout the entire dry season through pellet group counting, it is suggested that only two visits with either of the mentioned techniques are needed. If ""Fecal Standing Crop"" is used, there is now certainty that all non-white pellets are post the summer rainy season. If the ""Fecal Accumulation Rate"" technique is used, there is certainty that there will be no loss of pellets groups between the accumulation period of the entire dry season, approximately 7.5 months later. By reducing the number of visits, it allows us to cover more sampling sites, expand the study area, and obtain more precise estimates that will help understand ecological aspects and make management decisions. © 2024, Asociacion Mexicana de Mastozoologia.

A total of 99 chondrichthyan species are formally recorded in Costa Rican waters, from which 15% are threatened with extinction and 41% are ""Data Deficient"" based on the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) Red List. A total of 121 studies were published between 1891 and 2017; 82% in the Pacific (24% from Isla del Coco) and only 18% from the Caribbean Sea. These results highlight the need to redirect research efforts on specific taxonomic groups and geographic regions (i.e., Caribbean). Based on our review, improving the quality and quantity of fisheries landing statistics, as well as determining the degree of overlap between chondrichthyans and Costa Rican fisheries remains a priority. We proposed an adaptive management framework for chondrichthyan fisheries in data-poor countries where management goals/targets are clearly defined. This framework could strengthen the conservation of chondrichthyan populations in Costa Rica and the region.",,,,,5,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000456937200001,,,,,,,BROWN SMOOTHHOUND SHARK; chimeras; conservation approaches; data-poor countries; Eastern Tropical Pacific; FEEDING ECOLOGY; GOLFO DULCE; LATIN-AMERICA; management; MARINE PROTECTED AREA; MUSTELUS-HENLEI; PACIFIC COAST; population declines; rays; sharks; SPHYRNA-LEWINI; STABLE-ISOTOPE; TOP PREDATORS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Because remaining vigilant is hard and because regulatory measures are difficult to enforce, harvesting has been allowed to diminish poaching. Useful management strategies have not been implemented, however, and conflicts remain between conservation legislation and the fisheries. We developed a transdisciplinary methodological scheme (pressure-state-response, loop analysis, and Geographic Information System) that includes both protected species and fisheries modeled together in a spatially represented marine ecosystem. We analyzed the response of this marine ecosystem supposing that conservation strategies were successful and that the abundance of protected species had increased. The final aim of this study was to identify ecosystem-level management alternatives capable of diminishing the conflict between conservation measures and fisheries. This methodological integration aimed to understand the functioning of the UGC&CRDBR community as well as to identify implications of conservation strategies such as the recovery of protected species. Our results suggest research hypotheses related to key species that should be protected within the ecosystem, and they point out the importance of considering spatial management strategies. Counterintuitive findings underline the importance of understanding how the community responds to disturbances and the effect of indirect pathways on the abundance of ecosystem constituents. Insights from this research are valuable in defining policies in marine reserves where fisheries and protected species coexist. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,739-750,,4,45,,Environ.

Previous genetic work assigned killer whales that occur seasonally in the Strait of Gibraltar (SoG) and killer whales sampled off the Canary Islands (CI) to the same population. Here we present new analyses of photo-identification and individual genotypes to assess the level of contemporary gene flow and migration between study areas, and analyses of biomarkers to assess ecological differences. We identified 47 different individuals from 5 pods in the SoG and 16 individuals in the CI, with no matches found between the areas. Mitochondrial DNA control region haplotype was shared by all individuals sampled within each pod, suggesting that pods have a matrifocal social structure typical of this species, whilst the lack of shared mitogenome haplotypes between the CI and SoG individuals suggests that there was little or no female migration between groups. Kinship analysis detected no close kin between CI and SoG individuals, and low to zero contemporary gene flow. Isotopic values and organochlorine pollutant loads also suggest ecological differences between study areas. We further found that one individual from a pod within the SoG not seen in association with the other four pods and identified as belonging to a potential migrant lineage by genetic analyses, had intermediate isotopic values and contaminant between the two study areas. Overall our results suggest a complex pattern of social and genetic structuring correlated with ecological variation. Consequently at least CI and SoG should be considered as two different management units. Understanding this complexity appears to be an important consideration when monitoring and understanding the viability of these management units. Understand the viability will help the conservation of these threatened management units. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.",,291-300,,,66,,Ecol.

The management plans are essential to achieving the goals for Environmental Protected Areas (EPA), one of the conservation areas types in Brazil. Some countries use Strategic Environmental Assessment to make management plans and they are getting good results. On the other hand, in Brazil, the management plans preparation applied in EPAs follows a specific Methodological Guide. In this context, the present paper analyzed the SEA contribution to management plans and discussed how these contributions can improve Methodological Guide of EPA in Brazil. The method used was qualitative and the conceptual framework obtained from international literature. Thus, the paper analyzed three case studies: two were related to protected areas with SEA influence and the third without influence of SEA. The results show SEA important contributions for plans management, namely: planning stages better integration, especially with land use plans; consider other management plans objectives; better integration and evaluation of strategies involving social, environmental and economic issues; participatory management strengthening. Also, considering Methodological Guide of EPA, the conclusion is that management plans can provide better results when associated with SEA. © 2015, ABES - Associacao Brasileira de Engenharia Sanitaria e Ambiental.

These varieties in habitats provide good shelters and foraging sites for migratory birds during their journeys between Eurasia and Africa. Since the beginning of the Libyan winter census of waterbirds International waterbirds census (Libya IWC) in 2005, which continued regularly until 2012, it has had relatively the same performance in the number of covered sites. However, since 2013, due to the security situation that Libya has experienced due to wars and conflict, which negatively affected the quality of the IWC in Libya, the number of sites has dramatically decreased, reaching only six locations during the middle of the previous decade. Aim: The IWC 2022 aimed to count the birds along the Libyan coast from January 10 to 29. Methods: The census activities were conducted from dawn to dusk during the study period by using high-quality Telescopes, binoculars, and digital cameras for the documentation. Point transects method was used to cover the sites. Results: The results of this year showed that a total of 64 sites were covered, and 68 species of waterbirds were counted, with an abundance of 61,850 individuals. During the census period, a total of 52 non-waterbird species found in Wetlands were recorded, and the number of individuals was 14,836 birds. A total of 18 threatened species were observed during this survey, 12 of them are mentioned in the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List, and nine species are mentioned in the regional activities center of specially protected areas annex II as threatened in the Mediterranean, where the species; Larus audouinii (Payraudeau, 1826), Larus genei (Breme, 1839), and Puffinus yelkouan (Acerbi, 1827) are mentioned in both of them. Conclusion: The lack of the number of ornithologists and bird watchers is still one of the factors affecting the quality of the IWC in Libya, as well as lack of funding remains an important factor that plays a major role in the success of the waterbirds census. © 2023, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Tripoli.

Unfortunately, such areas are very sensitive to changes due to human activity, natural phenomenon, introduction of non-native species, and climate change. Thus, the main objective of this research is the implementation of a robust image processing methodology to produce accurate bathymetry maps in shallow coastal waters using high-resolution multispectral WorldView-2/3 satellite imagery for the monitoring at the maximum spatial and spectral resolutions. Two different island ecosystems have been selected for the assessment, since they stand out for their richness in endemic species and they are more vulnerable to climate change: Cabrera National Park and Maspalomas Natural Protected area, located in the Balearic and Canary Islands, Spain, respectively. In addition, a third example to show the applicability of the mapping methodology to monitor the construction of a new port in Granadilla (Canary Islands) is presented. Contributions of this work focus on improving the preprocessing methodology and, mainly, on the proposal and assessment of new satellite-derived regression and machine learning bathymetric models, which have been validated and compared with respect to measured reference bathymetry.

Although Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are seen as a useful tool in the sustainable management of the oceans, progress in the implementation of MPA networks in areas beyond national jurisdiction has been limited. Specifically, the criteria of ""representativeness"" has received little consideration. This study uses the systematic conservation planning software Marxan coupled with a biologically meaningful biophysical habitat map to investigate representative MPA network scenarios and to assess the efficiency and representativeness of the existing High Seas MPA network in the Northeast Atlantic. Habitat maps were created based on the layers of water mass structure and seabed topography resulting in 30 different habitats, in six distinct regions. Conservation targets were set at 10 and 30% representation of each habitat within the final network. Two portfolios were created. The first portfolio (P1) ignored the presence of the existing MPA network within the study area allowing a non-biased selection of planning units (PUs) or sites to be chosen. The second (P2) enforced the selection of areas within the existing MPA network. Efficiency was measured as the difference in the percentage area contained within the ""best scenario"" MPAs from the un-bias run (P1) compared with (P2). Representativety of the existing network was assessed through the investigation of the properties of PUs included within MPAs in the ""best scenario"" Marxan output of P2. The results suggest that the current MPA network is neither efficient nor representative. There were clear differences in the spatial distribution of PUs selected in P1 compared with P2. The area required to be protected to achieve that the representation of 10 and 30% of each habitat was 8-10 and 1-4% higher, respectively, in P2 compared with P1.

Lake Baikal is a territory with special conditions of use, which has unique natural characteristics and a powerful system of environmental and legal regulation of public relations in the field of environmental protection. For effective planning and regulation of recreational activities in the context of strict environmental requirements for biodiversity conservation, an environmental legal mechanism is involved. This allows you to determine the priority right to use the territory, relying on the norms of environmental law. In the geoinformation environment, using the tool of legal ecological zoning, which manifests the effect of all legal norms in a particular area of the territory, tourist-recreational zones have been identified that allow the legitimate development of recreational activities within the established boundaries. The correlation of the current permitted standards of recreational load with the real state of “local ecosystems” allowed zoning of the tourist-recreational zones in terms of the intensity and nature of recreational loads. The selected categories of legal zoning make it possible to clarify the permitted types of activities on the territory within the boundaries of plots of various categories of land and determine the specific purpose of their use, the types of objects that can be placed. Further analysis of the tourist-recreational zones on the resistance of their constituent ecosystems to recreational loads made it possible to determine possible scenarios for the development of the situation and formulate goals for the development of the tourist-recreational zones with detailing to the level of recreational functions of the territories. Selected tourist-recreational zones can be proposed for the formation of specially protected areas of recreational purpose of regional significance on them and included in urban planning and program documents with the subsequent detailing of the territorial structure of tourism and regular monitoring of environmental, social and economic parameters of the development of recreational activities. © 2023, Russian Academy of Sciences.

Protected areas are also effective at limiting anthropogenic pressures that threaten endemic species. Behavioural shifts are often the most immediate response of animals to disturbance, indicating the importance of considering the direct links between the disturbance present in an ecosystem and the behavioural patterns of endemic species. Here, we assessed the effect of land cover protection along with anthropogenic disturbance factors (human and dog abundance, distance to the nearest house, percentage of native vegetation [relative to agricultural landscapes]) on the activity patterns and abundance of 6 mammal species in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest and Cerrado. Data were collected using camera traps employed during 2 dry seasons at 208 stations (6240 camera-days). Activity pattern analyses used the novel application of circular activity patterns and a direct circular outcome to assess the direct impact of protection status and anthropogenic disturbance on behavioural shifts in the mammal species. Relative abundance was calculated using the mean population size of individuals as well as the per-individual detection probability. Protection status significantly elicited behavioural shifts in 5 of the 6 mammals, with 4 of these mammals shifting more towards nocturnality in non-protected areas. Dog abundance was the most important covariate in activity pattern shifts in the giant anteater, with nocturnality increasing with dog abundance, whereas native vegetation was the most important covariate in activity pattern shifts in the agouti and puma, with nocturnality increasing with decreasing native vegetation. Relative abundance was significantly lower in non-protected areas in 2 mammals, one of which was the Vulnerable giant anteater. The findings here are the first time in which anthropogenic disturbance factors have been found to directly elicit shifts in the circular activity patterns of mammals, as well as highlight the importance of protected areas in mammal conservation. The methods used here can be applied to ecosystems globally to pinpoint the direct impact of disturbance factors on endemic species whilst also providing explicit information on how conservation initiatives can be strategically and effectively targeted. © 2024",,,,,50,,Glob.

There are calls for more effective bundling to achieve policy goals. This study seeks to understand the interactive effects of marine protected area policy instruments applied in combination to commercial tourism operators. Using the Persuade-Enable-Constrain framework, we undertook a qualitative case study at Cape Byron Marine Park. Based on semi-structured interviews with management agencies (n=3) and tourism operators (n=12), we assessed the interactions between policy instruments and tourism operator behaviour. We found that the policy instrument mix primarily relied on the permit system, and there were limited persuasive, enabling, and constraining effects. This case study demonstrates that policy instrument mixes relying on single instruments have limited prospects for shaping tourism operator behaviour with the marine protected area goals of biodiversity conservation and sustainable economic use and are inadequate for high tourism marine protected areas. Key issues and management recommendations are discussed. The study provides evidence of ‘real world’ examples of policy instrument mixes and practical implications. The findings have practical relevance to planners, policy-makers, and marine protected area managers for future instrument mixes to more effectively achieve policy goals. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,166,,Mar.

Many breeding wader populations across Europe are declining because of unsustainably low rates of productivity, and the conservation tools designed to boost wader breeding productivity have been most effectively used for semi-colonial species within protected areas. Targeted management for wader species that breed at low densities across human-modified landscapes, such as the rapidly declining Eurasian Curlew Numenius arquata, is likely to be more challenging. Here, we quantify variation in Curlew nest survival to explore how management could be targeted to boost this key component of breeding productivity. Up to 80 pairs of Eurasian Curlew were monitored annually between 2019 and 2021 in eight locations across Breckland, eastern England, where nesting densities range from <1 to c 0.7 pairs/km2. For 136 nests across grassland- and arable-dominated sites, the majority of failures (86%) were caused by (primarily nocturnal) predation and the mean probability of surviving incubation (PSI) for all hatched or predated nests (127) was c. 0.25. Nest survival showed little annual or seasonal variation but did vary slightly between sites; however, this spatial variation was not clearly related to management conditions or nest concealment at these sites. Fencing to exclude mammalian nest predators can be effective for waders, but too few Eurasian Curlews currently nest within fenced areas in Breckland to produce observable effects. Fencing the few sites with high nesting densities could potentially double the number of chicks hatched each year within the study area, but landscape-scale actions to reduce predator impacts on nests and chicks are likely to be needed to maintain breeding numbers in the wider countryside. © 2022 The Authors.

The management and monitoring of vessel activity has historically been focused on industrial vessels, however, and is often conducted only at large spatial scales and coarse resolutions. A more holistic approach is needed to understand where and when different maritime fleets are impacting the marine environment, particularly within protected areas. Aims and methods: Here we explore fine-scale (50 m2) spatiotemporal patterns of multi-fleet vessel activity using Satellite Automatic Identification System (S-AIS) data over a two-year period (2018 – 2019) within a network of marine protected areas (MPAs) and their conservation features, using the biologically distinct oceanic archipelago of the Isles of Scilly (UK) as a case study. Key results: Vessel activity was widespread, affecting over 87 % of the study area. However, high-intensity activity was concentrated along key transit and shipping routes. Recreational and passenger vessels posed the greatest pressure within MPAs, particularly on conservation-critical features like European shag habitats and seagrass beds. Seagrass beds faced additional pressures from anchoring and mooring, with impact pressure up to four times higher than in other habitats. Conclusions: These findings reveal the complexity of mapping vessel impacts within MPAs and underscore the value of high-resolution analyses. Further research is needed to understand the in-situ effects on marine communities, particularly in high-pressure areas. Ignoring these cumulative impacts in monitoring strategies may compromise the effectiveness of MPAs in achieving their conservation goals. © 2025 The Authors",,,,,174,,Mar.

It is a valuable tool in facilitating the effective implementation of Ecosystem-Based Marine Spatial Planning (EB-MSP). However, few efforts have been carried out to summarize information on methods, trends, and progress in SCP in the designation of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). The present work aims at providing the protocol to perform a scoping review (ScR) to assess the contribution of SCP to the design of effective MPA networks, identifying both the development of good practices and the presence of gaps of knowledge in terms of criteria for their implementation. Protocol: The ScR will follow the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) extension for ScRs supported the definition of this protocol. The three databases Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar will be used for the bibliographic search. Inclusion criteria will be as follows: studies applying SCP in the marine realms worldwide, assessing its contribution to the design of MPA networks. Both peer-reviewed and grey literature will be considered for eligibility. No search limitations will be applied regarding publications’ year, stage, subject area and source type. Studies in English, French, German, Greek, Italian, and Spanish will be reviewed. Grey literature will be sourced from pre-print archives, institutional websites and other web-based search engines. The Covidence software will be used for the process of documents selection and data extraction. The findings of the ScR will be presented through tables, graphs, and maps, accompanied by a narrative summary of the outcomes.

We tested whether reliable SDMs can be generated for benthic marine organisms at the scale of the Southern Ocean. We aimed at identifying the main large-scale factors that determine the distribution of the selected species. The robustness of SDMs was tested with regards to sampling effort, species niche width and biogeography. Location: Southern Ocean. Methods: The impact of sampling effort was tested using two sets of data: one set with all presence-only data available until 2005, and a second set using all data available until 2015 including recent records from campaigns carried out during the Census of Antarctic Marine Life (CAML) and the International Polar Year (IPY) period (2005–2010). The accuracy of SDMs was tested using a ground-truthing approach by comparing recent presence/absence data collected during the CAML and IPY period to pre-CAML model predictions. Results: Our results show the significance of the SDM approach and the role of abiotic factors as important drivers of species distribution at broad spatial scale. The addition of recent data to the models significantly improved the prediction of SDM and changed the respective contributions of environmental predictors. However, the intensity of change varied between models depending on sampling tools, species ecological niche width and biogeographic barriers to dispersal. Main conclusions: We highlight the need for new data and the significance of the ground-truthing approach to test the accuracy of SDMs. We show the importance of data collected through international initiatives, such as the CAML and IPY to the improvement of species distribution modelling at broad spatial scales.

To preserve the rainforest ecosystems within the Yasuni-ITT oil block, the release of 410 million metric tons of CO2 would have been avoided. The neologism ""yasunization"" emerged as an Amazonian narrative on ""unburnable carbon"" to be replicated worldwide. Considering the unburnable carbon, petroleum-associated gas flaring represents the unleakable part. Flaring is an irrational practice that consists of burning waste gases, representing not only a leak of energy but also a pollution source. The general aim of the paper is to monitor gas flaring as a tool, revealing, at the same time, the implementation of environmental technologies in the oil sector and the compliance of sustainable policies in the Amazon region and the Yasuni Biosphere Reserve. Specific objectives are: (i) identifying and estimating gas flaring over seven years (2012-2018); (ii) mapping new flaring sites; iii) estimating potentially affected areas among ecosystems and local communities. We processed National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Nightfire annual dataset, based on the elaboration of imagery from the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) and developed a GIS-based novel simple method to identify new flaring sites from daily detections. We found that 23.5% of gas flaring sites and 18.4% of volumes of all oil industries operating in Ecuador are located within the Yasuni Biosphere Reserve (YBR). Moreover, we detected 34 additional flaring sites not included in the NOAA dataset-12 in the YBR and one in Tiputini field, a key area for biological and cultural diversity conservation. We also found that at least 10 indigenous communities, 18 populated centers and 10 schools are located in the potentially affected area. Gas flaring can be used as a policy indicator to monitor the implementation of sustainable development practices in complex territories. © 2019 by the authors.",,Jan-26,,1,12,,Sustainability,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI,,,,Amazon forest; anthropogenic source; burning; carbon balance; COMMUNITIES; CONSERVATION; data set; Ecuador; ECUADOR; EMISSIONS; estimation method; forest ecosystem; fossil fuel; Fossil fuel; gas flaring; Gas flaring; GIS; global warming; governance approach; indigenous population; INSIGHTS; LEAD-EXPOSURE; mitigation; Napo [Ecuador]; Nightfire; NOAA satellite; OIL PRODUCTION; petroleum; POLLUTION; RAIN-FOREST; rainforest; SATELLITE; unburnable carbon; Unburnable carbon; unleakable carbon; Unleakable carbon; VIIRS; Yasuni; Yasuní; Yasuni National Park,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A diachronic perspective, based on two multi-method empirical studies, is used to exemplify the social complexities of the implementation of this LMMA approach in a specific island setting. This perspective connects local stakeholders’ establishment and management of a LMMA covering their entire customary fishing rights area (iqoliqoli) with the national context articulated around the Fiji Locally Managed Marine Area (FLMMA) network, as well as with regional networking and international conservation dynamics. It especially explores the impacts of a small-scale marine closure (so-called tabu area) on the harvesting patterns in a portion of this LMMA, related aspects of formal and informal enforcement, and villagers’ views of the health of their reef fishery. This case study reveals a lack of consensus on the current management of this closure as a conditionally-opened no-take area, whose temporary openings (re)produce social tensions, as well as a lack of consensus on the effects of this closure on the reef fishery, which is subject to poaching. The paper highlights that the articulation between conservation and extraction of marine resources, as well as between short-term and longer-term objectives of the community-based marine resource management in place, is a complex sociopolitical process even at the most local level. The discussion also points out that local observations and interpretations of coastal resource dynamics, and of the interplay between fishery and community changes, might be instrumental in addressing the limits of the area-based system of management inherent in the LMMA approach. These insights into both the development process of the LMMA approach and the challenges of its local implementation and maintenance efforts can be useful to consider the adjustments necessary for Fiji's achievement of its national coastal fisheries management strategy and its international ocean governance commitments. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,253-265,,,220,,J.

The objectives of the study were to evaluate the distribution of MPs according to shape and polymer, to assess the contribution of fibers to local plastic pollution and to evaluate their ingestion in fish and invertebrates species that inhabit the study area (Pagrus pagrus, Serranus scriba, Spondyliosoma cantharus, Diplodus vulgaris, Oblada melanura, Holothuria forskalii, Holothuria tubularis, Holothuria polis, Arbacia lixula, Paracentrotus lividus, Modiolus barbatus, Mytilus galloprovincialis and Arca noae). A total of 111 environmental samples were analyzed. The mean abundance of MPs (excluding fibers) quantified in beach sediments (13,418.86 ± 28,787.99 MPs/m2) was two orders of magnitude higher than that found in seafloor sediments (76.92 ± 108.84 MPs/m2), which in turn was two orders of magnitude higher than sea surface samples (0.17 ± 0.39 MPs/m2). The fibers were the most abundant shape of MPs identified in all habitats. Variability in MPs ingestion was detected between species, with ingestion rates ranging from 43 % to 100 % for general MPs and ranging from 7 % to 100 % for fibers. The highest ingestion was observed in Holoturians, representing suitable bioindicators for plastic pollution. The composition of the polymer varies weakly depending on habitats and biota, but the result is strongly correlated with the morphology of the plastic. Fibers were mainly composed of cellulose acetate (29 %), styrofoam of polystyrene (18 %), and filaments, films and fragments of polyethylene and polypropylene. The results highlighted the need to expand integrated approaches to effectively study marine plastic pollution and to undertake efficient actions to limit the input of plastics, particularly fibers, into the marine environment. © 2022",,,,,858,,Sci.

The data and information derived from the surveys are used to provide a reference situation and to develop a complete inventory of threats faced by MPAs in the region. MPA managers identified unmanaged fisheries, coastal erosion, overexploitation of natural resources and pollution as the main threats to the sustainability of MPAs in the region. Climate change, although considered to be diffuse, is also a concern for managers. However, management measures are aimed (predominantly) at preventing overfishing and the overexploitation of terrestrial natural resources. Therefore, coastal erosion, pollution and climate change are only indirectly (and marginally) targeted by these management measures. Moreover, the management measures implemented i.e. monitoring, awareness raising and surveillance are insufficient and mainly aligned with the capacity of the local institutions. However, what is actually needed is more far reaching and adaptive actions to mitigate the current threats. The low financial, technical and human resources largely explain the limited scope of management actions taken. Coupled with the information and data deficit, which increases the inertia regarding threats that have been recurrent for more than a decade, management measures have not been sufficient in managing MPAs in the region. This paper recommends that the links between pressures on MPAs, technical recommendations and resulting management actions must be reinforced. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,117,,Mar.

We compared the area reportedly protected sites from two different sources, the world database on protected areas (WDPA) – which is the official tool to monitor the Aichi 11 Achievements – and the West African Marine Protected Area Network, which conducted a comprehensive survey in collaboration with the national institutions in charge of MPAs. Overall, the countries included in this study are unlikely to achieve the Aichi target. Comparing WDPA protected area figures against database created directly from national data showed large discrepancies. According to national data, Mauritania (3.71%) and Guinea-Bissau (2.15%) had the highest protected areas. Senegal had 1.61% of his EEZ under protection, while other countries had <1%. The difference between WDPA and national data was high with Guinea-Bissau already at 10% of EEZ protected areas status according to the WDPA. WDPA overestimated 5935 km2 of MPAs, corresponding to 41% of the actual total area. Possible explanations for the differences include: countries not transmitting information or doing so incorrectly; methodological transformations of data are inducing errors; and multiple MPA statutes leading to double counting of protected areas. This study also shows that for these countries, to achieve Aichi Target 11, large offshore MPAs are the only viable option, and therefore identifies potential sites, that should be considered in addition to conservation of coastal zones. However, their viability may be constrained due to oil activities and lucrative fishing. The increasingly anthropized littoral zone offers less space favourable to MPAs, while 138,723 km2 still need to be covered in these countries to reach 10% of marine protected area. © 2019",,,,,698,,Sci.

Effective management of conservation areas requires the role and participation of the community. Community empowerment efforts must be carried out by conservation area managers, one of which is by distributing aid to the community. This study aims to evaluate and examine the effectiveness of the Program by using the CIPP evaluation model and to identify the constraints and obstacles to its implementation. The CIPP evaluation model is a program evaluation model which was developed by Daniel Stufflebeam and colleagues in the 1960s. CIPP is an acronym for context, input, process and product. CIPP is a decision-focused approach to evaluation and emphasizes the systematic provision of information for program management and operation. The sampling method in this study used a purposive sampling technique with typical case sampling. The author interviewed twelve informants who were competent in providing various information and data required. The research results show that this program has run well and effectively. This is proven by (1) the increase in income of community groups after receiving the assistance program and (2) they are actively involved in supporting marine protected area manager in increasing the effectiveness of their management. The hope is that this program should continue and be further improved as much as possible with a larger and broader scope. Thus, more and more community groups will also feel the positive impact of this program. © 2024 The authors.

Rigaih is the fishing port located closest to Aceh Jaya waters, where the angler fish closely with the marine protected area and even intersect with the juvenile's habitat. This study aimed to examine shark and ray catches in Aceh Jaya before and after establishing the marine protection area. We conducted landing monitoring from 2017 to 2019 (before establishing a conservation area) and monitored in 2020 when the conservation area was established. We recorded that 73% of sharks and ray caught on set gill net. The composition of sharks and rays landed at PPI Rigaih consisted of Sphyrna lewini (75%, n=1783), Chiloscyllium punctatum (8%), Neotrygon caeruleopunctata (7%, n =175), and other species (10%). This study aimed to provide scientific recommendations to support shark conservation action in Aceh Jaya Waters. We found that Aceh Jaya waters are an important area for the life stages of several threatened species, including Scalloped Hammerhead Sharks (S.lewini) and Bottlenose Wedgefish (R.australiae) that are listed in Critically Endangered and listed in Appendix II CITES. Management to support the conservation action needs to be strengthened not only limited to Marine Protected Areas but also fisheries management to reduce the incidental catch of threatened sharks and ray species. Further studies need to be conducted to delineate the habitat range of threatened shark and ray species and identify fishing behaviours that pose a risk for incidental catches of sharks and rays. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.

Species diversity, genetic diversity and phylogenetic diversity, which reflect the number, evolutionary potential and evolutionary history of species in ecosystem functioning, are three important dimensions of biodiversity. Marine-protected areas have been demonstrated as an effective area-based tool for protecting marine biodiversity, but only 2.8% of the ocean has been fully protected. It is urgent to identify global conservation priority areas and percentage of the ocean across multiple dimensions of biodiversity based on Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework. Here, we investigate the spatial distribution of marine genetic and phylogenetic diversity using 80 075 mitochondrial DNA barcode sequences from 4316 species and a newly constructed phylogenetic tree of 8166 species. We identify that the Central Indo-Pacific Ocean, Central Pacific Ocean and Western Indian Ocean harbor high levels of biodiversity across three dimensions of biodiversity, which could be designated as conservation priority areas. We also find that strategically protecting ?22% of the ocean would allow us to reach the target of conserving ?95% of currently known taxonomic, genetic and phylogenetic diversity. Our study provides insights into the spatial distribution pattern of multiple marine diversities and the findings would help to design comprehensive conservation schemes for global marine biodiversity. © The Author(s) 2022.

Then, using the level-k model of behavioral game theory, we specify the decision mechanisms for players with bounded rationality. We propose an adaptive path planning strategy, coupled with the Bayesian learning method, for the defender to counter the attacker with an unknown reasoning level of the decision mechanism. The Bayesian inference algorithm, which combines current observation information and historical receding horizon prediction trajectories to form the belief on the attacker's reasoning level, allows the defender to generate an adaptive interception trajectory with the multimodel strategy.

Setting appropriate targets for restoring reef shark populations requires estimates of expected relative abundances in the absence of intense fishing. It is therefore important to identify factors that drive the carrying capacity of sharks in relatively intact reef systems and to determine whether expected shark abundance varies according to easy to assess variables. These variables could then be used by managers for setting restoration targets, or prioritizing resource allocation, for particular areas in the absence of detailed data. French Polynesia, the world’s largest shark sanctuary, provides a model system for addressing this question. We used baited remote underwater video surveys to assess relative abundance of sharks on 35 reefs across the broad geographic range of French Polynesia. Boosted regression tree models revealed that relative abundance of sharks varied significantly with island geomorphology. Overall, relative shark abundances at high islands were nearly 3 times lower than on atolls, and among atoll geomorphology types, open atolls had abundances nearly 20% higher than closed atolls. Island group, temperature, and net primary productivity had more limited effects. Human pressure (measured as market gravity) was not a significant factor. Although species-specific patterns varied, our findings suggest that environmental factors, particularly island geomorphology, should be taken into account when setting shark abundance recovery targets. Using this easy to assess factor can facilitate the allocation of conservation effort and improve assessments of species recovery efforts for islands in the Indo-Pacific region. © Inter-Research 2024.",,93-105,,,736,,Mar.

Our study aimed to survey suitable habitats of the Egyptian Vulture during summer and winter in Iran using MaxEnt, a species distribution modelling method, and compare the results with the locations and span of protected areas. Model fitness was assessed using the area under the ROC-plot and True Skill Statistics. We found that habitat suitability in Iran varies for the Egyptian Vulture during summer and winter. Summer visitors are scattered in the north and west of Iran, concentrated along the Zagros and Alborz mountain ranges. Winter visitors and residents are scattered in coastal areas in the south. Habitat protection for winter visitors was the greatest, with 10% of suitable habitat covered, while less than 10% of suitable habitat for residents and summer visitors fell within protected areas. The Egyptian Vulture is categorised as 'Endangered' on the IUCN Red List. Different environmental factors influence the suitability of habitat for the species. While some factors such as NDVI and anthropogenic disturbance influence all visitors in a similar way, the effects of others such as elevation and distance from protected areas vary for summer and winter visitors. Since designation of protected areas in Iran is mainly determined by the distribution of mammal species, protection of bird habitats is often overlooked.

Results: The monitoring recorded the presence of six non-native species of animals in this River – four species of fish (Clarias gariepinus, Ictalurus punctatus, Oreochromis niloticus and Salminus brasiliensis), one invertebrate (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) and one foraminifera (Ammoglobigerina globigeriniformis) introduced by escapes from aquaculture, sport fishing and ballast water. These introductions are problematic because they have the potential to impact upon the endangered native species in the River through predation, competition or novel diseases. Conclusions: In Guaraguaçu River the increasing number of introductions is worrying because these species have in common a set of traits that turns them into potential invaders. It is of great importance to keep monitoring their populations in order to detect and minimize their negative impacts on native biota, once there is a conservation unit in the region (Guaraguaçu Ecological Station), with the aim to protect the environment in its pristine condition. © 2021, Sociedade Brasileira de Limnologia.

Citizen science offers information that helps fill this gap. In southern Brazil, traditional science was carried out in 15 of 50 municipalities in western Paraná state, reporting 82 endemic and 25 threatened species in a total of 467. WikiAves, the most popular, photography-based online citizen science platform in Brazil, whose users are not trained to collect data, reported 56 endemic and 11 threatened species in a total of 430 in 48 municipalities. Together, the 512 species is 92% of the expected 558, and all endemic and threatened species reported in WikiAves were reported by traditional scientists. Traditional scientists studied in protected areas, provided a list of species, and reported > 200 species in 4 municipalities, endemic species in 14, and threatened species in 11. The number of species reported correlated with the number of studies in the municipality. Citizen scientists tended to photograph target species, and reported > 200 species in 2 municipalities, endemic species in 31, and threatened in 12. The number of records was correlated with population of the municipality. Traditional scientists tend to test hypotheses and use appropriate methods. Citizen scientists seem to photograph close to home, without using scientific methods. We offer suggestions to better integrate traditional and citizen science data; each adds information useful for both, improving both of their contributions to science and conservation. © 2022 The Author(s).",,,,1,7,,Citiz.

There is uncertainty over whether opportunistic observations can produce reliable species distribution models (SDMs) and adequately inform conservation management. Aims: To compare SDMs for humpback whales in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park based on different opportunistic sightings datasets and evaluate the impact different sources of opportunistic data have on our understanding of humpback whale habitat relationships. Methods: Maximum entropy modelling (Maxent) was used to create predictive models for humpback whale distributions. Sighting data from citizen science and opportunistic observations from various other databases were used. Models were compared to evaluate disparities and predictive capabilities. Key results: Distinct environmental variables [bathymetry, distance to the coast] were identified as the most relevant for each SDM. The best-fitting model diverged from an existing model, with humpback whale distribution predicted to be closer to shore. Areas with the highest habitat suitability were concentrated in the north-eastern coastal region across all models developed in this study. Conclusions: This study demonstrates that, with careful application and consideration, citizen science data can enhance our understanding of humpback whale distributions and contribute to their conservation. The research underlines the importance of embracing diverse data sources in SDM, despite the challenges posed by opportunistic data. Implications: The study provides valuable insights for conservation management and informs strategies to protect humpback whale populations in changing environmental conditions.  © 2024 The Author(s)",,,,3,30,,Pac.

The assignment of fishing effort levels was based on the fishing effort distribution in the area calculated from Vessel Monitoring System (VMS) data and the existence of two Fishing Protected Zones in the Menorca Channel. Biological samples were collected from 39 beam trawl stations, sampled during a scientific survey on April 2019. We compare the diversity, composition, and density of the epibenthic flora and fauna, together with the rhodoliths coverage and the morphology of the main species of rhodoliths of four areas subjected to different levels of bottom trawl fishing effort, including one that has never been impacted by trawling. Our results have shown negative impacts of bottom trawling on rhodoliths beds and the first signals of their recovery in areas recently closed to this fishery, which indicate that this is an effective measure for the conservation of this habitat of special interest and must be included in the management plan required to declare the Menorca Channel as a Special Area of Conservation. © 2021 by the authors.

Investigating the effects of anthropogenic pressures on sympatric carnivores is needed to improve our ability to develop targeted, effective management plans for carnivore conservation worldwide. Utilizing photographic, line-Transect, and habitat sampling, as well as landscape analyses and village-based bushmeat hunting surveys, we provide the first investigation of how multiple forms of habitat degradation (fragmentation, exotic carnivores, human encroachment, and hunting) affect carnivore occupancy across Madagascar's largest protected area: the Masoala-Makira landscape. We found that as degradation increased, native carnivore occupancy and encounter rates decreased while exotic carnivore occupancy and encounter rates increased. Feral cats (Felis species) and domestic dogs (Canis familiaris) had higher occupancy than half of the native carnivore species across Madagascar's largest protected landscape. Bird and small mammal encounter rates were negatively associated with exotic carnivore occupancy, but positively associated with the occupancy of four native carnivore species. Spotted fanaloka (Fossa fossana) occupancy was constrained by the presence of exotic feral cats and exotic small Indian civet (Viverricula indica). Hunting was intense across the four study sites where hunting was studied, with the highest rates for the small Indian civet (x=90 individuals consumed/year), the ring-Tailed vontsira (Galidia elegans) (x=58 consumed/year), and the fosa (Cryptoprocta ferox) (x=31 consumed/ year). Our modeling results suggest hunters target intact forest where carnivore occupancy, abundance, and species richness, are highest. These various anthropogenic pressures and their effects on carnivore populations, especially increases in exotic carnivores and hunting, have wide-ranging, global implications and demand effective management plans to target the influx of exotic carnivores and unsustainable hunting that is affecting carnivore populations across Madagascar and worldwide.

Owing to the wide-ranging distributions of many chondrichthyans, they are often overlooked in marine protected area (MPA) design. South Africa is a biodiversity hotspot for chondrichthyan species diversity, and to improve the conservation status of these species in the country's continental exclusive economic zone (EEZ), we collaborated widely to collate existing occurrence data. Ensemble models were developed for 87 species' distributions, which informed a systematic conservation planning analysis for 64 threatened and endemic species. We assessed the current representation of these species in South Africa's MPA network and identified priority areas for protection, avoiding fishing pressure where possible. Results show that many MPAs are well placed to protect chondrichthyans, especially along the east coast (KwaZulu-Natal province). Unfortunately, permissive fishing regulations within many MPA zones reduces their effectiveness at protecting chondrichthyans. Improved regulations designed to protect chondrichthyans within all MPAs should be considered a high priority. Priority areas for increased spatial protection were identified along the west coast continental shelf, the Agulhas Bank off the south coast, and south coast embayments. We found that supplementing the current MPA network by an additional 5 % of the EEZ would be sufficient to protect >30 % of the range of all 64 species, provided there is adequate enforcement. As South Africa prepares to expand its MPA estate to meet international targets, these findings can ensure that chondrichthyans are well represented. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,284,,Biol.

Nevertheless, the explicit goals of customary management are often to influence fish behavior (in particular flight distance, i.e., distance at which an organism begins to flee an approaching threat), rather than fish abundance. We explored whether the flight distance of reef fishes targeted by local artisanal fishers differed between a customary closure and fished reefs. We also examined whether flight distance of these species affected fishing success and accuracy of underwater visual census (UVC) between customary closed areas and areas open to fishing. Several species demonstrated significant differences in flight distance between areas, indicating that fishing activity may increase flight distance. These relatively long flight distances mean that in fished areas most target species may stay out of the range of spear fishers. In addition, mean flight distances for all species both inside and outside the customary-closure area were substantially smaller than the observation distance of an observer conducting a belt-transect UVC (mean [SE]= 8.8 m [0.48]). For targeted species that showed little ability to evade spear fishers, customary closures may be a vital management technique. Our results show that customary closures can have a substantial, positive effect on resource availability and that conventional UVC techniques may be insensitive to changes in flight behavior of fishes associated with fishing. We argue that short, periodic openings of customary closures may allow the health of the fish community to be maintained and local fishers to effectively harvest fishes. ©2010 Society for Conservation Biology.",,341-349,,,25,,,"Efecto de Encierros Marinos Convencionales sobre el Comportamiento de Peces, el Éxito de la Pesca con Arpón y los Muestreos Visuales Submarinos",,,,,,,Spanish,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 2 Journal Abbreviation: Conserv.

The study area is a large tropical catchment (Rio das Velhas, Minas Gerais, Brazil) affected by pastures, mining areas and a large urbanized area but also includes natural protected areas. Two stream types were found in the catchment, based on stream size, elevation, climate and geology with significantly different macroinvertebrate communities. In spite of a marked wet/dry seasons' climatic pattern, that does not result in the segregation of communities. Four classes of global degradation (IV-bad to I-good condition) were defined based on the available abiotic information, corresponding to a gradient in structure and biotic metrics of macroinvertebrate communities, matching the current knowledge on taxa sensitivity to pollution and general disturbance. Class I corresponds to target conditions to be achieved under restoration programmes. Using this approach, we were able to detect an improvement of abiotic conditions in four urban streams that benefited from enhancement measures in 2007-2008. However, invertebrate communities improved clearly in only one site (biotic metrics and community structure). Our study highlighted that good water quality alone is not enough and that only the combined effect of water quality, riparian vegetation and instream habitat condition enhancement resulted in the improvement of invertebrate communities. An important limiting factor for macroinvertebrate communities' recovery may be the distance to source populations. We concluded that the combined use of biological and abiotic target values for measuring the recovery of streams is needed to fully achieve an ecological restoration. This approach can also be valuable in the regular monitoring of streams to assess stream degradation. Target values based on other biological elements, such as fishes and algae, and functional processes could also contribute to define more global and realistic goals. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,70-84,,1,31,,River Res.

To mitigate and potentially reverse some of these impacts, the European Union (EU) has mandated the implementation of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) in order to achieve . Good Environmental Status (GES) in EU waters by 2020. The primary initiative for achieving GES is the implementation of coherent networks of marine protected areas (MPAs). Marine reserves are an important type of MPA in which no extraction is allowed, but their usefulness depends upon a number of ecological, management, and political factors. This paper provides a synthesis of the ecological effects of existing European marine reserves and the factors (social and ecological) underlying their effectiveness. Results show that existing European marine reserves foster significant positive increases in key biological variables (density, biomass, body size, and species richness) compared with areas receiving less protection, a pattern mirrored by marine reserves around the globe. For marine reserves to achieve their ecological and social goals, however, they must be designed, managed, and enforced properly. In addition, identifying whether protected areas are ecologically connected as a network, as well as where new MPAs should be established according to the MSFD, requires information on the connectivity of populations across large areas. The adoption of the MSFD demonstrates willingness to achieve the long-term protection of Europe's marine ecosystems, but whether the political will (local, regional, and continent wide) is strong enough to see its mandates through remains to be seen. Although the MSFD does not explicitly require marine reserves, an important step towards the protection of Europe's marine ecosystems is the establishment of marine reserves within wider-use MPAs as connected networks across large spatial scales. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,1012-1021,,5,36,,Mar.

A robust assessment of ecological changes in protected areas is fundamental to optimize conservation policies and adaptive management. China's efforts to establish aquatic reserves have attracted worldwide attention, especially the “10-year fishing ban” implemented in the Yangtze River basin. We focused on Liangzi Lake, a freshwater protected area in the Yangtze River basin, to understand the effect of a fishing ban occurring after a short period of overfishing. In this aim, the time series of fish community taxonomic and functional structure encompassing the overfishing period and a post-ban period have been analysed. Fish community metrics with direct, indirect and no responses to fishing bans were identified. The results indicate that in the early period of the fishing ban, the trophic level and body size structure of the fish community were in the way of recovery. However, species that prefer benthic habitats did not recover after fishing-induced habitat degradation. Functional traits were more sensitive than taxonomic indices and revealed subtle community changes, such as the recovery of some ecological functions, despite a non-recovering species richness. Synthesis and applications. This study provides a rare case of a freshwater protected area in which the effects of conservation measures are studied with a temporal survey. The effectiveness of the functional trait approach in the application of protected area assessment was demonstrated by revealing the recovery of trophic level and body size structure of fish communities after the implementation of fishing ban, and the inadequacy of habitat restoration efforts. We suggest that in freshwater protected areas, insistence on fishing ban is necessary but not sufficient for full biodiversity recovery, and other measures are needed, such as habitat restoration and species-focused stocking. © 2023 The Authors.

The majority (81%) of land is under provincial jurisdiction and classified as crown provincial land. Productive forest land contributing to the allowable annual forest cut represents 45% of the provincial land base or 43.3 million hectares. Public awareness of biological diversity and understanding of the need for conservation has greatly increased in recent years and has led to the creation of a policy to double the amount of protected area in the province from 6% to 12% of the land base by the year 2000. This paper describes the Forest Practices Code which came into effect on June 15 1995 and is intended to help promote the conservation of biological diversity within the province. The development and effective implementation of the Code is significant and of wide interest to forest and land managers because it applies to all crown lands outside of protected areas. Biodiversity conservation is addressed in the Code by way of landscape and forest stand level planning. Landscape level planning begins with the establishment of a landscape unit. These units are based on ecological boundaries, watersheds or groups of watersheds rather than administrative boundaries and may encompass public and private land. They range in area from around 5000 to 100000 hectares in which the future desired forest conditions can be spatially planned. There are three guidebooks that are intended to be used together to provide a coordinated strategy for the conservation of biological diversity under the Code: the Riparian Management Guidebook (British Columbia Forest Service and British Columbia Environment, 1995c), the Managing Identified Wildlife Guidebook (British Columbia Forest Service and British Columbia Environment, 1995d) and the Biodiversity Guidebook (British Columbia Forest Service and British Columbia Environment, 1995b). The Biodiversity Guidebook provides a 'coarse filter' for retention of habitat diversity. The riparian management reserves and management zones provide protection to the large number of species associated with those restricted, but biologically diverse and productive, habitats. There are also provisions in the Code for managing habitats for single species, subspecies, and ecosystems known to be threatened, endangered or regionally important. The Forest Practices Code truly signals a major change in forest management within British Columbia. The retention of old growth forest and mature forests for biodiversity is a new practice. The science behind the recommendations in the biodiversity guidelines must be monitored to evaluate whether forest practices are effective at meeting their conservation objectives.",,67-77,,01-Mar,85,,FOR.

Throughfall was measured using ion exchange resin (IER) collectors. A major objective of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of IER throughfall measurements for monitoring deposition inputs, including cloudwater deposition, to forest stands in national parks and other protected areas. Wet deposition (0.9-2.0kgNha-1yr-1) and throughfall (0.5-1.2kgNha-1yr-1) deposition of inorganic N in the three parks were relatively low. Wet deposition of sulfur (1.0-3.2kgha-1yr-1) was similar to wet deposition of inorganic nitrogen except at OLYM where wet deposition of S was higher than for N because of marine sources of SO4-S. Throughfall N deposition was lower than wet deposition of N because of strong preferential canopy consumption of nitrate (NO3-N), particularly during the wet winter periods. This phenomenon was previously reported for forests in this region, but its apparent near ubiquity in the region had not been recognized. Data on preferential canopy retention of NO3-N from wet-deposited N is shown for 38 stands in the Pacific Northwest of which 21 are newly-reported data. Deposition of NO3-N in throughfall at MORA and NOCA was reduced by 87% and 93% compared to wet deposition over the 2years. In contrast, wet deposition of NH4-N was generally increased by passage through the canopy. This strong preferential canopy retention of wet-deposited NO3-N limits the usefulness of throughfall measurements as a N deposition monitoring approach in forests of the Pacific Northwest region of North America and in some other regions with low to moderate N deposition. As a potential remedy to this limitation, a simple method is proposed for estimating total N deposition in the study sites based on S/N ratios in wet deposition and throughfall S deposition. © 2013.",,240-253,,,302,,For.

Grazing by herbivorous fish contributes to maintaining resilient reefs and marine reserves are important in conserving herbivores and their functional role. On the east coast of Australia, herbivores from the closely related families Girellidae and Kyphosidae are targeted by fishers and marine reserves have been shown to support greater size and abundance of girellids and kyphosids which enhances grazing on temperate reefs. On the west coast, however, kyphosids and girellids are rarely targeted by fishers. This study tested the hypothesis that there would be no difference in the size, abundance and feeding rates of girellids and kyphosids on temperate reefs inside and outside marine reserves at Rottnest Island, Western Australia, due to their relatively low levels of exploitation. The size, abundance and feeding rates of girellids and kyphosids inside and outside marine reserves were quantified using a diver-operated stereo-video system and feeding trials. No significant difference was found in the size and abundance of Kyphosus cornelii and Kyphosus spp. (Kyphosus sydneyanus and Kyphosus gladius combined) or feeding rates inside and outside marine reserves. The second aim of the study was to assess the relative importance of grazing and drift-feeding pathways used by kyphosids. Drift-feeding is an alternative form of herbivory to grazing and herbivores switching between grazing and drift-feeding pathways can have significant effects on algal communities, yet little is known about the relative importance of both feeding strategies for fish. A combination of feeding observations (mensurative) and feeding trials (manipulative) were used to quantify the number of feeding bites taken by fish on drift algae and attached algae. There was no significant difference in the number of feeding bites taken by the abundant herbivore, K. cornelii, on drift algae and attached algae during feeding observations, however, during feeding trials herbivores consumed significantly more drift algae (Ulva sp.) than attached algae. These findings demonstrate that drift-feeding is a common feeding strategy used by kyphosids. The findings in this study also highlight considerable differences in the effects of marine reserves on targeted east coast and non-targeted west coast populations of girellids and kyphosids on temperate reefs. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.",,49-56,,,493,,J.

Thus, the objective was to evaluate the economic viability of Environmental Offsets (EO) as an alternative to the unoccupied PPAs in the saltworks. In order to do so, 27 solar saltworks installed in the region of the Brazilian White Coast were evaluated for the occupation of PPAs-measured using images from satellite, georeferenced, vectored with corresponding PPA bands generated-and estimated to EO (Impact Degree x Sum of the investments necessary to implement the project) and Economic Impact (Net Present Value, with long-term interest rate of 7%) of vacating PPAs. It was considered that EO was feasible whenever the costs resulting from it were lower than the economic impact caused by the vacancy of the PPAs. The PPAs were tthe productive area of ?the saltworksthat occupied 13.70% of PPAs. For all the evaluated enterprises the value corresponding to EO was lower than the Economic Impact resulting from the vacancy of the PPAs. Thus, EO is an economically viable and more attractive alternative to the eviction of PPAs by the saltworks industry and may also provide environmental gains due to the financing of conservation units in the areas of influence of the enterprises. However, there is a need to improve the methodology used to estimate the EO, since a maximum limit is set, the environmental impacts caused by the projects are underestimated. © 2020, Universidade Federal de Santa Maria.

Despite a large number of protected areas (PAs) offering refuge for the remaining Campo Rupestre vegetation in the IQ, studies on the current situation of these natural remnants, and the real functionality of these PAs are scarce. This study aimed to map the remaining natural phytophysiognomies of the IQ, evaluating the proportion of Campo Rupestre on ferruginous and non-ferruginous substrates in PAs. We applied the object-oriented classification using Sentinel 2A and 2B satellite images, vegetation indexes, iron oxide index and terrain attributes, with field-collected validation points. We identified thirteen types of land use and cover, of which five represented natural phytophysiognomies. The most common phytophysiognomies in the IQ are Seasonal Forests and Cerrado (all types included), accounting for more than 60% of the total area. Campo Rupestre on ferruginous and non-ferruginous substrates accounts for 5.4% of the total mapped area only. On the other hand, about 42.5% of the Campo Rupestre (ferruginous or not) are protected and correspond to 17.7% of the PAs. We show that an appropriate mapping of the phytophysiognomies in the IQ region is key for improving landscape ecology knowledge and future conservation planning, especially of the endangered Campo Rupestre vegetation. © 2022 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,66,,J.

Amongst them, the Water Framework Directive (WFD), the Marine Strategy Framework Directive and the Nature 2000 Network centralize the most significant environmental policies. WFD aims to provide a common framework for the protection and improvement of surface waters (rivers, lakes, transitional waters and coastal waters) and groundwaters in Europe. Consequently, Member States of the European Union establish the current status of water bodies through systematic monitoring networks that generate temporal series of huge amount of environmental information that must be managed efficiently. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have been a key component of the management process during the implementation of the WFD and Natura 2000 Network in Cantabria. The evolution of Geographic Information software over the last decades has been evident; from isolated desktop GI software to European Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI), allowing scientists, managers, environmental experts and partners to obtain new GIS capabilities to manage environmental information. This paper is based on the development of a management infrastructure specially focused on answering Environmental European Directives. The environmental data is managed through a Relational DataBase Management System (RDBMS) and a GIS Server. These two components allow the centralization of data and creation of services that can be exploited from different applications. Scientists and managers are able to access the information through heavier-weight desktop clients or through web clients that have been developed specifically. Consequently, a management infrastructure has been built to manage all the environmental information of the Cantabria region. Environmental professionals can access specific web sites that answer the needs of European Directives whereas public web sites retrieve environmental information provided by the system. The Environmental Information System presented allows researchers and managers to manage large amounts of environmental information, implement methodological procedures to answer Environmental European Directives and provide interoperability protocols to share environmental information. As a future line of work, one of the most important goals is the implementation of new methodologies and provide new services to the public sector through a Spatial Data Infrastructure, following the Inspire Directive initiative. © 2011 IEEE.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: OCEANS IEEE - Spain,,,,Cantabria; Coastal systems; Coastal waters; component; Control quality; Current status; Database systems; Directive; Environmental data; Environmental information; Environmental information systems; Environmental management; Environmental policy; Environmental professionals; Environmental protection; European Commission; European directive; European Union; Framework directives; Geographic information; Geographic information systems; GIS; GIS servers; Groundwater; Information management; Information systems; Infrastructure; International law; Internet protocols; Interoperability; Key component; Legislative tools; Management; Management information systems; Management infrastructure; Management process; Managers; Monitoring network; Natura 2000; New services; Observations; Public sector; Relational database management systems; Spatial data infrastructure; Surface waters; Transitional waters; Two-component; User interfaces; Water; Water conservation; Water Framework Directives; Waterbodies; Web clients,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,OCEANS 2011 IEEE - Spain,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The pioneer studies of human impacts on coastal marine communities provided the scientific basis on which to establish novel resource management strategies for exploited wild populations but were not used to develop a comprehensive marine conservation plan that would also include no-take areas. We reviewed the development of marine conservation actions since approximately 1970 to date, focusing on the (1) complex legal framework for establishment of marine protected areas, (2) scientific grounds that provided the impetus to establish areas where exploitation is regulated, (3) private efforts that were critical to creating the first marine protected areas, and (4) lessons and constraints derived from this process as well as the challenges ahead. The existing legal tools for the protection of the ocean include natural sanctuaries, marine reserves, marine parks, national monuments, and management and exploitation areas for benthic resources. These instruments may be applied in coastal marine protected areas. It is remarkable that most of the existing marine protected areas in Chile are sponsored and administered by private organizations. We think the sequence in which the development of the different conservation instruments occurred, with a high priority reserved for initiatives tending to promote exploitation of the ocean (aquaculture and fisheries), poses challenges and constraints for establishing a network of marine protected areas that combine such apparently diametrically opposing goals as exploitation and preservation of marine species. More recently, the value of preserving biodiversity became evident with the creation of the first marine parks. We encourage more scientific information on patterns of biodiversity, biological processes, and assessment of human impact to be incorporated in the process to reach the goal of preserving 10% of the representative marine habitats along Chile's coast. ©2005 Society for Conservation Biology.",,1752-1762,,6,19,,Conserv.

Although we think that the establishment of any conservation policies along the vast coastline of Chile must be based on a multitude of approaches and considerations, scientific, biological, and ecological principles should guide much of these efforts. In this paper, we attempt to present a general overview of the current knowledge about the ecology and biogeography of nearshore systems in Chile. Based on the most relevant existing information, our goals are to: 1) Identify major biogeographic and ecological features of nearshore ecosystems, and the obvious gaps in information, 2) identify the most harmful human activities impacting the structure and dynamics of these systems, and 3) suggest the possible use of indicators to assess the conservational status of different environments along the coast. This overview shows, on one side, the geographic areas of deficitary knowledge on nearshore environments that are critical for future marine conservation and management plans, and on the other, the availability of high quality information for other geographic areas along the coast. Regarding the taxonomy and large-scale patterns of species distribution, important gaps in information were detected, however no big changes in the total number of species are expected in the future. There are few large-scale patterns of species distribution are reported in the literature, and in this contribution, but more work needs to be done, particularly for some taxa, to identify areas of high species diversity as well as areas which possess unique characteristics in terms of ecosystem processes (e.g., particular disturbance and upwelling regimes in coastal marine ecosystems) and species (e.g., endemic and keystone species). For most marine invertebrates and macroalgae, hotspots in species diversity are present in southern Chile. New studies addressing the causal factors generating these large-scale patterns of species distribution are also needed; information about coastal oceanography and larval supply is still poor. This information crucial for the design of a marine reserve network. The information available on community structure and ecosystem functioning, especially highlighting the effect of human impact, comes from very few geographic regions. More information about community structure for other areas of the coast is required, particularly considering the strong differences in temperature, circulation patterns, habitat heterogeneity, species composition, as well as of upwelling and El Nino effects along the 4,000 km of coastline. Finally, we list what we think are the most harmful human activities by area and environment along the coast, and integrate this information to suggest possible environmental indicators, and basic needs and guidelines for marine conservation in Chile.",,797-830,,4,73,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000166668900021,,,,,,,biogeographical patterns; Chile; community structure; COMMUNITY STRUCTURE; CONCHOLEPAS-CONCHOLEPAS GASTROPODA; DURVILLAEA-ANTARCTICA PHAEOPHYTA; FISHERIES MANAGEMENT; human impact; HUMAN-EXCLUSION; MACROCYSTIS-PYRIFERA; marine conservation; MARINE RESERVES; ROCKY INTERTIDAL ZONE; SANDY BEACHES; SOUTH-CENTRAL CHILE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, resolving the extent to which MPAs function according to their conservation goals requires that essential demographic information such as individual survival and population size are quantified. To this end, we analyzed a 16-year replicated mark-recapture study on European lobster (Homarus gammarus, n = 8793) conducted at several protected and unprotected sites in southern Norway, quantifying the impact of MPAs on local population dynamics by means of a “before-after control-impact” study approach (BACI). Lobster survival and abundance were estimated by applying multi-state and robust design models to the mark-recapture data. These models revealed underlying positive responses to protection. Annual survival rates and population abundances reached higher values in the MPAs, compared to the unprotected sites (abundance range: MPAs = 96–1172, control areas = 92–747). In general, female survival was higher than male survival (range of survival: male = 0.13–0.75, female = 0.37–0.85), while larger males benefited more from protection compared to smaller males (range of increase in survival after protection: big = 100–125%, small = 55–101%). We also detected regional differences in demographic responses to protection, as not all MPAs showed the same changes in abundance over time. Our results show that MPAs can reach conservation goals by increasing the local survival and abundance of lobster, but they also highlight demographic differences between sexes and geographic areas that are worth considering for the management and design of both current and future MPAs. © 2021 The Author(s)",,,,,257,,Biol.

Cyclone-induced storm surges cause severe damage to these polders by overtopping and breaching the dikes. A total of 19 major tropical storms have hit the coast in the last 50 years, and the storm frequency is likely to increase due to climate change. The present paper presents an investigation of the inundation pattern in a protected area behind dikes due to floods caused by storm surges and identifies possible critical locations of dike breaches. Polder 48 in the coastal region, also known as Kuakata, was selected as the study area. A HEC-RAS 1-D-2-D hydrodynamic model was developed to simulate inundation of the polder under different scenarios. Scenarios were developed by considering tidal variations, the angle of the cyclone at landfall, possible dike breach locations and sea level rise due to climate change according to the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). A storm surge for a cyclone event with a 1-in-25-year return period was considered for all the scenarios. The primary objective of this research was to present a methodology for identifying the critical location of dike breaching, generating a flood risk map (FRM) and a probabilistic flood map (PFM) for the breaching of dikes during a cyclone. The critical location of the dike breach among the chosen possible locations was identified by comparing the inundation extent and damage due to flooding corresponding to the developed scenarios. A FRM corresponding to the breaching in the critical location was developed, which indicated that settlements adjacent to the canals in the polders were exposed to higher risk. A PFM was developed using the simulation results corresponding to the developed scenarios, which was used to recommend the need of appropriate land use zoning to minimize the vulnerability to flooding. The developed hydrodynamic model can be used to forecast inundation, to identify critical locations of the dike requiring maintenance and to study the effect of climate change on flood inundation in the study area.</p> The frequency and intensity of the cyclones around the world are likely to increase due to climate change, which will require resource-intensive improvement of existing or new protection structures for the deltas. The identification and prioritization of the maintenance of critical locations of dike breaching can potentially prevent a disaster. The use of non-structural tools such as land use zoning with the help of flood risk maps and probabilistic flood maps has the potential to reduce risk and damage. The method presented in this research can potentially be utilized for deltas around the world to reduce vulnerability and flood risk due to dike breaching caused by cyclone-induced storm surge. © 2019.

We present a review of the marine managed areas established in the Adriatic Sea in 2019, providing information on their characteristics, temporal variabilities, and scopes. Through the processing of Automatic Identification System (AIS) data, the monthly bottom fishing activity performed within each area was inferred and the intensity was assessed. Thus, the effectiveness of trawling bans was evaluated.

In data-poor ecosystems conservation planning is informed by using environmental surrogates (e.g. temperature) predominantly in two ways: to develop habitat classification schemes (1) or develop species distribution models (2). We test the utility of both approaches for conservation planning of marine ecosystems, and rank environmental surrogates, such as depth and distance from shore, according to their power to predict the distribution and abundance of biotic species. Specifically, we compared a habitat classification scheme; based on coarse levels of habitat types derived from depth and distance from shore; against species distribution models, which predict fish abundance and prevalence as a function of environmental surrogates (depth, distance from shore, latitude, reef area, zoning, and several metrics of habitat structural complexity). We consistently set conservation target levels to 21% of each conservation feature, following global standards and a sensitivity analyses. Thus when running scenarios to protect fish species we aimed to protect at least 21% of each species, and when running scenarios of habitat classes, we aimed to protect at least 21% of each habitat class. We found that when aiming to protect 21% of the chosen conservation targets, distribution models protected 21% of the predicted abundance/occurrence of all modelled species and functional groups, but did not protect most habitats. Contrastingly, using a habitat classification scheme protected 21% of all habitat types and 34% of all species and functional groups, but required protecting three times more area. Thus, using only distribution models as targets in data-poor ecosystems could be a risky conservation planning strategy. Ultimately the best conservation outcomes were achieved by incorporating local knowledge to synthesize the conservation outcomes of both scenarios. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,40-50,,,212,,Estuar. Coast.

The loss of these wetlands as migratory stepping stones could severely hamper the migratory flow of many bird species along the central Mediterranean. Targeted actions for the conservation of the avifauna require thorough knowledge of the utilization that waterbirds make of these habitats. Aiming to inform planning for more satisfactory bird habitat management and bird diversity preservation along the Mediterranean migratory bird flyway, in this study, we inventoried the avian metacommunity of the coastal wetlands in Sicily during the most critical period of the year (July–September) and used a multilevel analytical framework to explore the spatiotemporal dynamics in bird species assemblages. We recorded 73 bird species, of which almost 90% were migratory and 30 belonged to Annex I of the Birds Directive. At the metacommunity level, we found that all the biodiversity metrics were low in July and approximately doubled in the successive sampling sessions (August–September), where they showed little if any change. At the community level, we detected two main clusters of wetlands with regard to species richness, of which one (wetlands Baronello, Gela, Gornalunga, and Roveto) was characterized by higher levels of species richness in nearly all the sampling dates. The pattern of species richness in the Sicilian wetlands was most similar between the first and second half of August, while July was very dissimilar from all the other sampling dates. At the guild level, we found a significant increase during July–September in the number of the species belonging to the “Mediterranean” migration guild and the “divers from the surface” and “surface feeders” foraging guilds. At the species level, we detected a significant temporal sequence of the occurrence of waterbird species: two species were only early dwellers in July, ten species were only late dwellers in September, and twenty-six species made use of the Sicilian wetlands all summer long. The spatial distribution of the waterbird species differed significantly between any pair of sampling dates. Overall, the Little Grebe, the Spotted Redshank, and the Little Tern were the bird species with the highest site infidelity; by contrast, the Black Stork, the Broad-billed Sandpiper, the European Golden Plover, the Common Shelduck, and the Black-necked Grebe changed their spatial distribution among wetlands the least during July–September. Our study allowed us to detect (1) the wetlands and (2) the waterbird species to which the priority for conservation should be assigned, as well as (3) the exact time span during July–September when conservation measures should be mandatory, and not only advisable. These results provide a broader insight of the space–time patterns in bird species assembly in the coastal wetlands of Sicily during the critical summer period. © 2024 by the authors.",,,,8,13,,Land,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,analytical method; avian diversity; CLIMATE-CHANGE; coastal wetland; conservation planning; Italy; Mediterranean bird flyway; migratory species; Natura 2000 sites; procrustes analysis; seabird; seriation analysis; Sicily; spatial variation; species conservation; summer; summer period; temporal variation; wader; waterbird conservation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Nevertheless, they can determine a change in national policies and practices only if states are willing and capable of incorporating international obligations into their national legislations and ensuring their application and enforcement in areas that follow completely under national jurisdiction. The establishment of marine protected areas promoted by international agreements as a tool for the protection of marine resources represents an interesting case for revealing the complex interactions between international institutions and national actors. Particularly, the establishment of these areas in Senegal shows the salience of domestic constellations of actors who may support or undercut national commitments to international regimes: political elites, bureaucracies, the general public and target groups. By anchoring the empirical analysis to an actor-centred institutionalist perspective, the article explains how dynamic constellations of actors can distort the penetration of international objectives in the national policy framework. Different constellations of national actors can indeed bend international institutions at different moments: during the formulation of a new law in line with international obligations; in the definition of its implementation framework; and in the enforcement of national policies. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,564-572,,4,47,,Environ.

Location: Alto Paraguay Basin, central-western flank of Brazil. Time period: 2003–2020. Methods: We calculated climatic and burned area anomalies and Spearman's correlation between precipitation and sea surface temperature (SST). We assessed water coverage to identify the impact of the 2020 drought. We produced fire recurrence maps, identified the areas that burned for the first time in 2020, and estimated the carbon loss. Lastly, we assessed the burned areas within land-use classes and land tenure. Results: The anomalies showed that climatic variables in 2020 had an atypical behaviour, being hotter and drier than the historical average. The water surface area in the Pantanal has been decreasing annually from 2003, and in 2020 the reduction was 34% greater than the annual average. Burned areas in 2020 were 200% greater than the long-term average, and 35% of the burned areas occurred for the first time in this year. We showed that 84% of these new fires occurred within natural vegetation, with 39% of the burned areas occurring in forests, an increase of 514%. Forest fires were responsible for 47% of the carbon loss in 2020. Finally, 70% of the fires in 2020 occurred within rural properties, 5% in indigenous lands and 10% in protected areas. Main conclusions: The unprecedented fires in 2020 were not only a result of atypical climate, but also a consequence of the intensification of fire-related human activities. Rural properties play a major role in Pantanal fires, requiring law enforcement and a consistent plan for increasing the protection of the conservation areas. We argue that ineffective fire prevention and the lack of suppression strategies were also key in enhancing the magnitude of these fires. © 2022 The Authors.

There is no consensus regarding the ideal size of MPAs, and actually there is some evidence that perhaps size is not as critical as other specific factors in determining their success in terms of populations’ protection and ecological functions conservation. On the other hand, depending on the objectives, zones with different classification regimes in terms of rules and uses might enable the maintenance of the intended uses. At this light, we examined the case of the small (605 002 m2) rocky shore area of Avencas, near Lisbon, on the Atlantic western Coast of Portugal, which was classified as Biophysical Interest Zone (ZIBA) in 1998, due to its exceptional intertidal biodiversity, after what its protection status became controversial, leading to conflicts with the local population and incompliance with extant regulations. From 2010 efforts were carried out by local authorities to reclassify Avencas as Marine Protected Area, which was achieved in 2016. Monitoring intertidal communities in a MPA and adjacent areas is an effective and low-cost procedure to evaluate the evolution of the biodiversity of rocky shores. Therefore, antedating the creation of the new MPA, assessments of the ZIBA biodiversity were conducted from January 2013 to December 2015 on a monthly basis. This timeline was selected as a function of a change in visitors’ behavior induced from 2013 by several management and outreach initiatives, which increased in a certain extent the user's compliance with regulations. A positive evolution was expected for density and/or species diversity of the different groups analysed (flora, sessile fauna and mobile fauna) in this three years period. However, a very strong storm occurred in 2014 produced a significant impact and changed large areas of the Avencas rocky shore. As a consequence, results did not display a recognizable recovery pattern of the intertidal communities, and following that extreme event are not even consistent with a hypothesized enhanced recovery capability of the ecosystem in a protected area. This suggests that longer data series are necessary to obtain more robust data regarding natural variability, since alterations caused by extreme events are always likely to occur. Additionally, results illustrate that indeed size matters because it influences the MPA openness, expressed as the ratio of periphery to area, and therefore its susceptibility to external driving forces. Such considerations must be taken into account in any management plan, which in this case should encompass an increase in the intertidal protected area, a new conditioned small-scale fishing regime, and an adequate monitoring programme to evaluate the effectiveness of the new management scheme. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,471-480,,,81,,Ecol.

A bottom-up approach with public participation before defining regulations is an innovative, yet difficult process. The case study presented is a local experience of Avencas Biophysical Interest Zone in Cascais, Portugal. The objective of this paper is to evaluate a new approach, to assess the success of the management action applied in terms of the short-term response from users of the costal marine protected area.Public participation assemblies were conducted to welcome input from the fishing community regarding the new regulation; visual census and interviews directed at different users, were used to assess the short-term effectiveness of the implemented management actions. A new regulation is underway and user management actions have been implemented: visitors' pathways through the rocky platforms and information spots at the entrance to the beach.Positive results point to the success of this approach, as visitors either agreed or respected the various management actions implemented: 84% of them agree with information spots, and 76% agree with the pathways. Recreational fishers are now mostly located outside the protected area, though there are still some who choose to stay inside, which indicates the need to change some points in the regulation, to improve its compliance by the fishing community. The short-term evaluation methodology was effective in detecting changes in usage patterns from users when the bottom-up approach was applied. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,275-281,,,118,,Ocean Coast.

Coastal vegetation plays an important role in the environmental protection of dunes, preventing the advance of seawater toward the continent, in dune erosion and in the maintenance of ecosystem services. Seeking to support the protection of these environments, the present study aims to characterize the floristic aspects of the coastal dune forest in the Maputo National Park, Mozambique, associating this knowledge with future social, biological and environmental gains at the local, regional and global levels. This study addressed the following methodological procedures: (1) floristic sampling, where specimens of all woody, fertile or sterile individuals were collected from the sampled areas and identified; (2) analysis of floristic similarity between the studied area and the coastal floras of East and West Africa; (3) characterization of vegetation in terms of plant habit, ecological groups, dispersion and pollination syndromes and phytogeography. Families with the highest number of species in descending order were Rubiaceae, Loganiaceae, Meliaceae, Sapotaceae and Ebenaceae. The results showed that the greatest number of individuals are trees, of late secondary stage, zoochoric and melittophilous. The studied area is similar in vegetation to East-coast Africa, but differs from the West coastal. The different climatic environments that gave rise to different terrestrial ecoregions might have contributed to high and low floristic similarities between the coastal flora of East and West Africa. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Botanical Society of Sao Paulo.",,1027-1040,,4,46,,Rev.

In Brazil, where MPAs have been designated to replenish biodiversity, there is a lack of regional-scale analysis of MPA impacts and the factors related to positive ecological change. This study aims to quantify the magnitude of the ecological effects of Brazilian MPAs and test whether some study and MPA characteristics (e.g., taxonomic group studied, exploitation level of species, MPA area, protection time, management effectiveness, level of connectedness, etc.) were underlying factors associated with their performance. We conducted a structured search in a database of scientific articles, selecting comparative studies of direct biodiversity metrics inside and outside MPAs offering different protection levels (i.e., fully- or partially-protected MPAs) or within MPAs with distinct zones. We then carried out a meta-analysis based on 424 observations found in 18 articles. Averaged across all studies, we found that MPAs had a 17% increase in the abundance of species, length of individuals, and community diversity. When compared to open-access areas, fully-protected MPAs increased biodiversity by 45%. However, MPAs offering partial protection had variable effects, ranging from significant positive to significant negative effects. MPA effects depended on the taxonomic group and exploitation level of species, with the strongest positive effects seen on exploited fish species and benthic invertebrates. Partially-protected MPAs that reported strong positive effects required long time of protection (>15years) and high level of connectivity. Conversely, fully-protected MPAs (i.e., no-take ones) could be effective even when small, under intense fishing pressure in their surroundings, and regardless of their level of connectivity. We used the Brazilian MPAs as a case study, but these results can contribute to a more comprehensive assessment of the association between ecological impacts of MPAs and drivers of conservation success, and offer key information to consolidate MPA networks that sustain biodiversity. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,301,,J.

One of these species is Epinephelus itajara, which can exceed 2 m in length and 400 kg weight, is classified by the IUCN as a critically endangered. In Brazil, there is currently a moratorium that prohibits the capture of this specie, and in the northeastern coast, a Marine Protected Area was recently established properly justified by the existence a one spawning aggregation. The scope of the present study was the analysis the LEK of fishers with the goal of contributing to the conservation of E. Itajara.Methods: The Knowledge of 24 "" experts"" was recorded through semi-structured interviews with fishermen selected based on their expertise. LEK regarding some aspects of the life history of E. itajara, such as its morphology, spatial distribution, feeding, breeding and conservation, was systematized. The interviews were conducted in synchronic and diachronic situations. The data analysis followed the model of unity of the various individual skills, while the consistency of the analysis was tested using a matrix of methods employed in comparative cognitive science. Potential reproductive aggregation sites were identified by experts through projective interviews conducted based on a cartographic database and transferred to a geographic information system (GIS).Results: The LEK of these specialists in relation to the biological and ecological characteristics of E. itajara showed a high level of detail and a high agreement with the scientific literature. Projective interviews are presented as a promising tool allowing spatialization of the information generated through the registration of LEK. Therefore, the visualization of information from the fishermen, as well as its analysis and comparison with other databases, is simplified, thereby contributing to the decision-making process concerning the conservation of marine ecosystem in Brazil.Conclusions: Integration of LEK with scientific knowledge is an efficient strategy for the conservation of endangered species, as it provides important additional biological information that can be used in the process of participative and sustainable management of marine resources. © 2014 Ferreira et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.",,,,1,10,,J.

The number of these individual datasets are now at levels which if combined, can infer on population level movement and spatial use. Here we use this approach to quantify distribution and important areas for one of the largest populations of green turtles (Chelonia mydas) in the Indo-Pacific. Location: Western Australia. Method: We compiled satellite tracking data for 96 adult, female green turtles from 10 rookeries and two genetic stocks and split the data into nesting, migration and foraging using a state-space model to classify the movement behaviour underlying the track (resident or transient). We then used time (and number of turtles) in area analysis on each of these components to quantify the important areas of use, at both rookery and regional/stock scales. We also assessed the representativeness of the calculated distributions, based on the available sample sizes. Results: 86% of post-nesting turtles had oceanic or coastal movement to neritic foraging grounds and 14% had local residency to their rookery. The foraging distribution consisted of the inshore waters of most of northwestern Australia. Our sample sizes used for inter-nesting distribution were adequate for 90% of rookeries, but still larger sample sizes were needed for post-nesting distributions. Main conclusions: Despite some limitation with sample size, our analyses have provided a quantitative and robust approach to designate marine areas of importance for an endangered species. The spatial extent of the inter-nesting areas was encompassed by existing spatial protection for green turtles during the breeding season, but existing Biologically Important Areas are largely underestimating the foraging areas. Our study highlights the utility of our approach for providing quantitative outputs at scales needed for management (local and regional). © 2020 The Authors.

However, there is limited knowledge of their ecology in the Gulf of Guinea. To fill this knowledge gap, this study presents the first integrative assessment of green and hawksbill turtles in the region, combining nesting surveys over 9 years and telemetry data, to offer insights into these population dynamics, and behaviours, including nesting preferences, morphological and reproductive parameters, diving patterns and inter-nesting core-use areas. Both green and hawksbill turtles are likely making a recovery on Săo Tomé, potentially driven by sustained conservation efforts. There are preliminary indications of recovery, but we interpret this cautiously. Coupled with satellite tracking, this study estimated that 482 to 736 green turtles and 135 to 217 hawksbills nest on the beaches of Săo Tomé. Their movements overlap significantly with a proposed Marine Protected Area (MPA), which suggests they may be well placed for conservation if managed appropriately.

Increasing risks associated with environmental change along with highly degraded coastal ecosystems encompass complex management challenges for the long-term sustainability of these landscapes. This article aims to explore the role of protected areas in past and ongoing community adaptation to the compounded effects of climatic and anthropogenic change. A literature review of published articles is conducted through systematic queries of the bibliographic database Web of Sciences, and by comparing adaptation and social-ecological resilience processes within and out of coastal protected areas. Findings underscore the absence of specific studies that target these topics inside protected areas, highlighting a geographic bias towards research largely carried out in developed countries. Results also indicate the current need for management practices within protected areas to adopt more participatory, comprehensive, and flexible approaches.

In case of an accidental damage of the outer sheath, the annulus of the flexible pipe is flooded with seawater. Far from the damage, corrosion and/or corrosion fatigue of armour steel wires in the annulus occur in a strictly deaerated environment; this has been studied for a few years. At the damage location, the steel wires are in direct contact with renewed seawater. In order to protect them against corrosion, a cathodic protection is applied using sacrificial anodes located at the end fittings. The goal of this work is to evaluate the extent of the cathodic protection as well as the electrolyte oxygen concentration beneath the coating around the damage, to know whether or not there is a non protected area with enough oxygen where corrosion and corrosion fatigue can occur. The experimental work was performed with a model cell (2000 x 200 mm2), composed of a mild steel plate and a PMMA coat (transparent poly-methyl-methacrylate). The thickness of the gap between the steel plate and the PMMA coat was 0.5 mm. The potential and current density were monitored all along the cell (70 sensors). The oxygen concentration was also recorded. The experiments were performed with natural sea water, and cathodic protection was applied in a reservoir at one extremity of the cell. Another reservoir at the other cell extremity enabled carbon dioxide bubbling to simulate pipeline annular conditions. PROCOR software was used to simulate potential and current density within the gap and a mathematical model was developed to model oxygen concentration evolution. Both model and experimental results show that the extent of the cathodic protection is much greater than that of oxygen. Oxygen depletion is very quick within the gap when seawater fills it and the oxygen concentration is close to zero a few millimetres from the gap opening. On the other hand, the cathodic protection potential remains high enough to prevent corrosion far from the gap opening.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: EUROCORR - Eur.

Argentario. Since the nineteenth century, the area has undergone significant environmental modifications due to intensive grazing and deforestation. Later, rehabilitation interventions were carried out, including reforestation and planting of dune species, making it an interesting protected area to study for its botanical aspects. Therefore, we aim to compile the floristic inventory of this distinctive Mediterranean area by integrating old and new data. The checklist comprises 502 specific and subspecific taxa of vascular plants. The life-form spectrum shows a predominance of therophytes, followed by hemicryptophytes. The chorological spectrum highlights the dominance of Mediterranean species, followed by Euromediterranean and Eurasian species. The presence of 15 species of regional importance, 3 species of the Italian red list and 3 Italian endemics (Ornithogalum exscapum Ten., Limonium multiforme Pignatti, Linaria purpurea (L.) Mill.) is noteworthy. Despite the environmental changes undergone in this area, our study reports the presence of remarkable species, including rare ones such as Atriplex littoralis L., Ruppia spiralis L. ex Dumort., and species at their distribution margin in the Italian Peninsula, such as Staphisagria macrosperma Spach, Juncus sorrentinoi Parl. and Maresia nana (DC.) Batt. Additionally the presence of 26 alien species, of which 15 are invasive, 9 naturalized and 2 casual, indicates a relatively low presence of alien species. Notwithstanding the significant environmental changes that the Feniglia isthmus has experienced in the last century and the high tourist pressure during the summer, the presence of the protected area suggested the effectiveness and benefits of such a form of protection for plant diversity.

Researchers have made many attempts to quantify the amount of biodiversity that still remains unknown. We evaluated whether models that integrate ecogeographical variables with measures of the effectiveness of sampling can be used to estimate biodiversity patterns (species richness) of reptiles in remote areas that have received limited surveys. Location: The Western Palaearctic (Europe, Northern Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia). Methods: We gathered data on the distribution of turtles, amphisbaenians and lizards. We used regression models integrating spatial autocorrelation (spatial eigenvector mapping and Bayesian autoregressive models) to analyse species richness, and identified relationships between species richness, ecogeographical features and large-scale measures of accessibility. Results: The two regression techniques were in agreement. Known species richness was dependent on ecogeographical factors, peaking in areas with high temperature and annual actual evapotraspiration, and intermediate cover of natural vegetation. However, richness declined sharply in the least accessible areas. Our models revealed regions where reptile richness is likely to be higher than currently known, particularly in the biodiversity hotspots in the south of the Arabian Peninsula, the Irano-Anatolian region, and the Central Asian mountains. An independent validation data set, with distribution data collected recently throughout the study region, confirmed that combining accessibility measures with ecogeographical variables allows a good estimate of reptile richness, even in remote areas that have received limited monitoring so far. Some remote regions that support very rich communities are covered very little by protected areas. Main conclusions: Integrating accessibility measures into species distribution models allows biologists to identify areas where current knowledge underestimates the actual richness of reptiles. Our study identifies regions requiring future biodiversity research, proposes a novel approach to biodiversity prediction in poorly studied areas, and identifies potential regions for conservation. © 2012 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,1202-1211,,6,40,,J.

In Brazil, a great extension of the Cerrado burned, raising once more the discussion about the “zero-fire” policy. Indeed, most protected areas of the Cerrado adopted a policy of fire exclusion and prevention, leading to periodic megafire events. Last year, 78% of the Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park burned at the end of the dry season, attracting media attention. Furthermore, 85% of the Reserva Natural Serra do Tombador burned as a result of a large accumulation of fuel caused by the zero-fire policy. In 2014, some protected areas started to implement the Integrate Fire Management (IFM) strategy. During 2017, in contrast to other protected areas, the Estaçăo Ecológica Serra Geral do Tocantins experienced no megafire events, suggesting that a few years of IFM implementation led to changes in its fire regime. Therefore, we intended here to compare the total burned area and number of fire scars between the protected areas where IFM was implemented and those where fire exclusion is the adopted policy. The use of fire as a management tool aimed at wildfire prevention and biodiversity preservation should be reconsidered by local managers and environmental authorities for most Cerrado protected areas, especially those where open savanna physiognomies prevail. Changing the paradigm is a hard task, but last year’s events showed the zero-fire policy would bring more damage than benefits to Cerrado protected areas. © 2018 by the authors.",,01-Nov,,3,1,,Fire,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI AG,,,,Altered fire regime; Fire incidence; Fire risk; Fuel load; Integrated Fire Management; Megafires; Protected areas; Tropical savanna,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, quantitative examinations of how resource governance and the distribution of management rights affect conservation outcomes are vital for long-term sustainability. Here, we use a long-term, quasi-experimental monitoring dataset from four Indonesian marine PAs that demonstrates that multiuse PAs can increase fish biomass, but incorporating multiple governance principles into management regimes and enforcing rules equitably are critical to achieve ecological benefits. Furthermore, we show that PAs predicated primarily on enforcing penalties can be less effective than those where IPLCs have the capacity to engage in management. Our results suggest that well-governed multiuse PAs can achieve conservation objectives without undermining the rights of IPLCs. Copyright © 2022 The Authors,",,,,18,8,,Sci.

However, significant gaps remain in our understanding of the effects of multiuse MPAs on reef-fish populations, and how protection from fishing may interact with biophysical gradients to drive ecological outcomes. Here, we examine changes in fish assemblages inside and outside of two multiuse MPAs in Raja Ampat, Indonesia, over the first four to five years after their implementation. We use linear models to assess the impact of protection status, anthropogenic pressure, and biophysical gradients on changes in four biological metrics: abundance, biomass, mean size, and size-spectra. In addition, we use multivariate analyses to assess whether fish assemblages in protected and unprotected reefs diverged after MPA establishment. We find that both fish abundance and biomass were driven equally or more by benthic characteristics than protection status and that these environmental impacts were decoupled from the effects of MPAs. Contrary to expectations, increases in abundance were more pronounced in unprotected reefs, where fish assemblages diverged from protected reefs through an increase of herbivorous parrotfishes (Subfamily Scarinae) likely driven by increased algal production on hard-bottom reef areas. However, mean size and size-spectra improved in sustainable use zones compared to unprotected reefs, demonstrating that non-exclusionary management can provide ecological benefits, especially when combined with nearby no-take areas. Increased mean size was also associated with lower human population sizes, suggesting a strong influence of fishing pressure, which is mediated by MPAs. Our findings suggest that multiuse MPAs can quickly achieve some fisheries management objectives and that these effects are likely to increase over longer timescales. However, biophysical context can have significant impacts on reef-fish assemblages that are distinct from the effects of overlying fisheries management. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,791-805,,3,40,,Coral Reefs,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH,,,,ALGAL TURFS; anthropogenic effect; ASSEMBLAGES; BIOMASS; Biophysical context; biophysics; community structure; CONSERVATION OUTCOMES; coral reef; Coral reef fisheries; DEGRADATION; environmental gradient; environmental protection; fish; fishery management; HABITAT; habitat mosaic; Indonesia; Marine conservation; marine park; Marine protected areas; PERFORMANCE; REGION-WIDE DECLINES; RESERVES; Scaridae; Scarinae; SIZE-SPECTRA; socioeconomic conditions; sustainability,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Despite their widespread usage, the performance of MPAs in sustaining fisheries remains debated, partially due to inconsistent results across studies. Here, we aim to standardize conclusions regarding MPA performance throughout the Philippines using a 'reef-wide' meta-analysis. This analysis uses pooled visual census data from 39 matched pairs of MPAs and fished reefs surveyed twice over a mean period of 3 yr, allowing for the comparison of abundance and demographic structure of fishes across both protected and fished areas over time. The meta-analysis revealed that (1) although fish density was higher inside MPAs within individual sampling periods, reef-wide fish density generally either increased or remained stable over time, and (2) reef-wide increases in large-bodied fish were evident between survey periods, indicating positive demographic shifts within both MPAs and adjacent areas. These results suggest that, over relatively few years of protection, MPAs in the Philippines are able to promote beneficial shifts in fish population structure throughout entire reef systems rather than simply maintaining stable populations within their borders. Demonstrating such benefits to adjacent reefs is critically important to the success of MPAs in the Philippines because compliance with closures of fishing grounds increases with realized benefits to fishing communities. The reef-wide framework of MPA assessment demonstrated in this study presents the advantages of including adjacent fisheries as integrated components when quantifying MPA performance, revealing trends that are indistinguishable when using spatial comparisons between MPAs and fished reefs. © Inter-Research 2017.",,187-202,,,570,,Mar.

However, there is a challenge associated with the application of MPAs in marine resource management with respect to the consequences to traditional systems of monitoring and managing fisheries resources. The place-based paradigm of MPAs can complicate the population-based paradigm of most fisheries stock assessments. In this review, we identify the potential complications that could result from both existing and future MPAs to the science and management systems currently in place for meeting conventional fisheries management objectives. The intent is not to evaluate the effects of implementing MPAs on fisheries yields, or even to consider the extent to which MPAs may achieve conservation oriented objectives, but rather to evaluate the consequences of MPA implementation on the ability to monitor and assess fishery resources consistent with existing methods and legislative mandates. Although examples are drawn primarily from groundfish fisheries on the West Coast of the USA, the lessons are broadly applicable to management systems worldwide, particularly those in which there exists the institutional infrastructure for managing resources based on quantitative assessments of resource status and productivity. © 2006 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,284-302,,4,7,,Fish Fish.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,aquatic ecosystem; BRITISH-COLUMBIA; conservation; DEEP-WATER ROCKFISHES; fish stock; Fish stock; fisheries assessment; Fisheries assessment; fisheries management; Fisheries management; fishery management; FISHERY-MANAGEMENT; HABITAT ASSOCIATIONS; LINGCOD OPHIODON-ELONGATUS; marine protected area; Marine protected area; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; North America; Pacific Coast [North America]; Pacific Coast [United States]; paradigm shift; protected area; SEBASTES-FLAVIDUS; spatial model; Spatial model; SPATIAL-PATTERNS; stock assessment; STOCK ASSESSMENT; United States; YELLOWTAIL ROCKFISH,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Global targets for ocean protection typically track the extent of ocean area within MPAs. However, understanding the effectiveness of protection is crucial, as the level of protection and associated benefits for biodiversity and human wellbeing can vary among different types of MPAs. In South Africa, 41 MPAs currently protect 5.4 % of the country's mainland exclusive economic zone (EEZ), each with varied conservation goals and unique zonation. We evaluated all 41 MPAs using the MPA Guide assessment framework to clarify levels of protection, expected conservation outcomes, and meaningful progress towards meeting national protection targets. We also compared types of site-specific management goals to the assessed level of protection for each MPA to understand whether MPAs are likely to achieve their stated goals. We found that all MPAs are at least Implemented, with most coverage Fully or Highly Protected (70.1 % of total MPA area; 3.8 % of EEZ). We also found that 40 MPAs have levels of protection that are likely to support all types of site-specific management goals. Our results indicate that South Africa's MPA network has strong potential to deliver positive conservation benefits if MPA funding and capacity constraints, as well as other socio-economic factors, are addressed.

Ecological niche models (ENMs) facilitate the comprehension of how environmental factors may influence species occurrence, providing spatially explicit information relevant to conservation. Therefore, our aim was to estimate the potential distribution of key habitat-forming Mediterranean gorgonians, whose conservation would protect many co-occurring species. Location: Mediterranean Sea. Methods: We modelled the potential distribution of the Mediterranean gorgonians Eunicella singularis, Eunicella cavolini, Paramuricea clavata and Corallium rubrum, using an ensemble ENM that combines nine algorithms. An extensive dataset of presence records (> 4378) collected through scientific surveys and citizen-science was intersected with oceanographic and topographic information within the coralligenous habitat depth range (< 150 m). This approach was used to map the habitat suitability of the study area for each species, assess related uncertainty, identify the most important factors shaping their distribution, and evaluate the overlap with the current network of Marine Protected Areas. Results: The model identified higher habitat suitability for the occurrence of each gorgonian species in the NW Mediterranean, with roughness and temperature as the main drivers of their distribution. Conversely, the poorly sampled SE Mediterranean showed low habitat suitability, although there is a greater uncertainty associated with this estimate. The combined potential distribution of the four species is estimated to cover a quarter of Mediterranean shallow and mesophotic waters, but only 19% was included within protected areas. Main Conclusions: The habitat suitability and uncertainty maps provide a valuable tool for the conservation and management of Mediterranean gorgonian species by offering spatially explicit information critical for marine spatial planning. The model estimates of habitat suitability showed low uncertainty for most of the study area, with few exceptions in the SE Mediterranean. Further studies, particularly in the SE Mediterranean will contribute to validate these results and will provide new information to improve future modelling efforts. © 2024 The Author(s).

Yet, our knowledge regarding the patterns of genetic diversity at macroecological scales, so-called macrogenetic patterns, remains scarce, particularly in marine species. Marine habitat-forming (MHF) species are key species in some of the most diverse but also most impacted marine ecosystems, such as coral reefs and marine forests. We characterize the patterns and drivers of genetic diversity in MHF species and provide a macrogenetic baseline, which can be used for conservation planning and for future genetic monitoring programmes. Location: Global. Time period: Contemporary. Major taxa studied: Bryozoans, hexacorals, hydrozoans, octocorals, seagrasses, seaweeds, sponges. Methods: We analysed a database including genetic diversity estimates based on microsatellites in more than 9,000 georeferenced populations from 140 species, which belong to seven animal and plant taxa. Focusing on expected heterozygosity, we used generalized additive models to test the effect of latitude, taxon, and conservation status. We tested the correlation between the species richness and the genetic diversity. Results: We reveal a significant but complex biogeographic pattern characterized by a bimodal latitudinal trend influenced by taxonomy. We also report a positive species genetic diversity correlation at the scale of the ecoregions. The difference in genetic diversity between protected and unprotected areas was not significant. Main conclusions: The contrasting results between MHF animals and plants suggest that the latitudinal genetic diversity patterns observed in MHF species are idiosyncratic, as reported in terrestrial species. Our results support the existence of shared drivers between genetic and species diversities, which remain to be formally identified. Concerning, these macrogenetic patterns are not aligned from the existing network of marine protected areas. Providing the first macrogenetic baseline in MHF species, this study echoes the call regarding the need to consider genetic diversity in biodiversity assessments and management. © 2023 The Authors.

One of the primary tools to conserve marine species and biodiversity is the establishment of marine protected areas (MPAs). International commitments to protect 30% of the world's ecosystems are gaining momentum, offering a promising avenue to secure kelp forests into the Anthropocene. However, a clear understanding of the efficacy of MPAs for conserving kelp forests in a changing ocean is lacking. In this perspective, we question whether strengthened global protection will create meaningful conservation outcomes for kelp forests. We explore the benefits of MPAs for kelp conservation under a suite of different stressors, focusing on empirical evidence from protected kelp forests. We show that MPAs can be effective against some drivers of kelp loss (e.g., overgrazing, kelp harvesting), particularly when they are maintained in the long-term and enforced as no-take areas. There is also some evidence that MPAs can reduce impacts of climate change through building resilience in multi-stressor situations. However, MPAs also often fail to provide protection against ocean warming, marine heatwaves, coastal darkening, and pollution, which have emerged as dominant drivers of kelp forest loss globally. Although well-enforced MPAs should remain an important tool to protect kelp forests, successful kelp conservation will require implementing an additional suite of management solutions that target these accelerating threats. © 2024 The Authors.

The ultimate goal of WFD is to achieve a good ecological status/potential of all water bodies before 2015. Together with the implementation of WFD also principles of Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) are to be applied and national expansions of Natura 2000 networks are in progress. There are many elements which are important in river basin planning systems. In the Baltic Sea region for example, the pressures posed by economic activities including increasing tourism and port activities have to be considered in land and river basin planning. These matters are dealt with in the context of the Watersketch project, a scheme supported by the Interreg IIIB programme of the European Union. The project aims at producing an extensive planning system and a working scheme that accounts for the various, complex and opposing tasks currently subjected to water usage. The main goal is to produce and describe processes, that aid planning and decision making also in areas with limited resources to meet the diverse requirements concerning water. In addition, the project intends to: 1) analyse and synthesize the different directives and conventions focused on use of water courses. 2) demonstrate the major alternatives of river basin planning with a wide set of case studies ranging from southern tip of Baltic Sea (Poland) to northernmost corner of it (Norway). 3) provide a Water Planning Decision Support System for spatial planners, which takes into account all main components needed for economically, socially and ecologically sustainable use of water courses. Raise capacity to promote the sustainable development in river basins by means of an information exchange platform, training workshops and the dissemination of the information needed for sustainable use of river basins by means of a handbook.

We used active acoustic telemetry to describe the fine-scale movements of giant trevally at Tetiaroa Atoll, including their home range, site fidelity, habitat use and spatial overlap with a small (21 km2) Marine Protected Area (MPA). The home ranges of giant trevally were small but varied among individuals (Minimum Convex Polygon ? = 3.2 ± 2.5 km2). All giant trevally exhibited site fidelity to their respective home ranges with a 31% average overlap in daily space use, but there was limited overlap in home ranges among individuals, with intra-individual spatial overlap significantly greater than inter-individual overlap (t =-4.93, df = 16.87, p-value = <0.001). There was only modest overlap (19 ± 19%) of giant trevally home ranges within the MPA and high spatial overlap of home ranges with deep lagoon habitats (90 ± 0.09 %). Our results indicate that MPAs could be an effective tool for the conservation of this species if they are implemented on an atoll-wide scale. However, in the case of managing recreational catch-and-release fisheries, rotational small-scale temporal closures could be effective in regulating the angling pressure imposed upon giant trevally, provided post-release mortality is minimized. The results of this study provide the first detailed account of habitat use in this species and highlight the need for additional research on the factors contributing to the survival of caught-and-released giant trevally in predator dominated atolls, especially as their popularity as a target of recreational fisheries continues to grow, and fishing operations and agencies are faced with the need to manage their fisheries. © 2019, Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History.

In Buenos Aires City, the “Ciudad Universitaria-Costanera Norte” Ecological Reserve (RECU-CN) constitutes one example of the expansion of the coastline in the Río de la Plata sector, carried out in the late 1960s. Given the lack of published works generated systematically that cover the entire area, we set as the objective to describe the RECU-CN vascular plant vegetation. For this, a systematic sampling was carried out in 79 plots of 25 m2, where the coverage of each of the vascular plant species present was registered. We identified 154 taxa, corresponding to 144 species, 123 genus and 58 families, and the total richness was estimated as 238 species. Trees and herbs had the highest coverage of all life forms. Through multivariate analysis, three vegetation units (Wetland, Forest and Grassland with groves) and 10 vascular plant communities were recognized. Vegetation was ordered according to two gradients: one of flood and another of anthropization. From the comparison with the typical plant communities of the region, similarities were found only with those registered in the Wetland unit. Results highlight that both the coexistence of physiognomically diverse vegetation units, as well as the native composition found in the plant communities of the Wetland unit, constitute main conservation values of the protected area. © 2020, Instituto de Botanica Darwinion.

Comprehensive classification systems to accurately account for areas managed for biodiversity conservation are an essential component of conservation planning and policy. Traditionally, quantitative targets for reserve system auditing has used a two-dimensional measure of the surface area protected. 2. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are three-dimensional systems and where zoning of allowable uses or protection is vertically stratified, measures of surface area at sea level are potentially misleading. 3. Measuring the proportion of the volume of MPAs managed for particular purposes provides a more accurate and transparent measure of the amount of protection or management intent in a single reserve. 4. This paper outlines a number of other emerging policy issues in relation to the zoning, protection and auditing of MPAs in Australia. It will be important to ensure that zoning is clearly and accurately articulated to better inform conservation planning decisions when establishing representative systems of Marine Protected Areas.

Two objectives of this protection are considered: avoidance of population extinction and maintenance of population, at or above a given precautionary population level. The pre-reserve population is assumed to follow the logistic growth law and two models for post-reserve population dynamics are formulated and discussed. For Model A by assumption the logistic growth law with a common carrying capacity is valid also for the post-reserve population growth. In Model B, it is assumed that each sub-population has its own carrying capacity proportionate to its distribution area. For both models, migration from the high-density area to the low-density area is proportional to the density difference. For both models there are two possible outcomes, either a unique globally stable equilibrium, or extinction. The latter may occur when the exploitation effort is above a threshold that is derived explicitly for both models. However, when the migration rate is less than the growth rate both models imply that the reserve can be chosen so that extinction cannot occur. For the opposite case, when migration is large compared to natural growth, a reserve as the only management tool cannot assure survival of the population, but the specific way it increases critical effort is discussed. © 2005 Rocky Mountain Mathematics Consortium.",,157-182,,2,18,,Nat.

The goal is to assess the applicability of Ostrom’s design principles for sustainable resource governance to large scale systems, as well as to examine other important variables that may determine success in large scale systems. While we find support for some of Ostrom’s design principles (boundaries, monitoring, sanctions, fit to conditions, and conflict resolution mechanisms are all supported), other principles have only moderate to weak support. In particular, recognition of rights to organize and the accountability of monitors to resource users were not supported. We argue that these differences are the result of differences between small and large scale systems. At large scales, other kinds of political dynamics, including the role of scientists and civil society organizations, appear to play key roles. Other variables emphasized in common-pool resource studies, such as levels of dependence on resources, group size, heterogeneity, disturbances, and resource characteristics also receive mixed support, pointing to the need to reinterpret the meaning of common-pool resource theories in order for them to be applicable at larger scales. © 2014 Igitur publishing.

Populations of the iconic monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) of eastern North America have declined over the last 21years. Three hypotheses have been posed to explain the decline: habitat loss on the overwintering grounds in Mexico, habitat loss on the breeding grounds in the United States and Canada, and extreme weather events. Our objectives were to assess population viability, determine which life stage, season and geographical region are contributing the most to population dynamics and test the three hypotheses that explain the observed population decline. We developed a spatially structured, stochastic and density-dependent periodic projection matrix model that integrates patterns of migratory connectivity and demographic vital rates across the annual cycle. We used perturbation analysis to determine the sensitivity of population abundance to changes in vital rate among life stages, seasons and geographical regions. Next, we compared the singular effects of each threat to the full model where all factors operate concurrently. Finally, we generated predictions to assess the risk of host plant loss as a result of genetically modified crops on current and future monarch butterfly population size and extinction probability. Our year-round population model predicted population declines of 14% and a quasi-extinction probability (<1000 individuals) >5% within a century. Monarch abundance was more than four times more sensitive to perturbations of vital rates on the breeding grounds than on the wintering grounds. Simulations that considered only forest loss or climate change in Mexico predicted higher population sizes compared to milkweed declines on the breeding grounds. Our model predictions also suggest that mitigating the negative effects of genetically modified crops results in higher population size and lower extinction risk. Recent population declines stem from reduction in milkweed host plants in the United States that arise from increasing adoption of genetically modified crops and land-use change, not from climate change or degradation of forest habitats in Mexico. Therefore, reducing the negative effects of host plant loss on the breeding grounds is the top conservation priority to slow or halt future population declines of monarch butterflies in North America.",,155-165,,1,84,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000346909300015,,,,,,,agricultural intensification; annual cycle; BIOSPHERE RESERVE; BIRDS; CHINOOK SALMON; CLIMATE-CHANGE; conservation planning; DANAUS-PLEXIPPUS; DYNAMICS; FOREST; genetically modified organisms; matrix modelling; MEXICO; migratory connectivity; OPTIMAL CONSERVATION; QUALITY; transboundary conservation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Location: Bel Ombre, Brise Fer and Macchabé forests in the Black River Gorges National Park (BRGNP), Mauritius (20°22?10?–20°28?17? S, 57°24?45?–57°27?12? E). Methods: Random and replicated vegetation plots were sampled in two protected forest areas whose communities of woody plants were surveyed 21 and 27 yrs previously, and in another protected and similar forest that was surveyed 68 yrs earlier, to identify species and measure stem diameters so as to permit comparisons at the three sites over these time periods. Results: Invasion by woody alien plants has progressed through time at all three sites, comprised mostly of the understorey and shade-tolerant Strawberry guava (Psidium cattleianum). Concomitantly, although reductions in native woody plant species richness of large trees (?10 cm DBH) were not statistically significant at the community level, their densities and basal area had roughly halved in 68 yrs. Comparisons with the studies 21–27 yrs previously confirmed the tendency towards a reduction in density of larger trees, besides indicating a trend towards decline in species richness of smaller understorey trees. Conclusion: An unabated replacement of native by alien trees over the longer term is occurring in protected areas of the lowland wet forests of the BRGNP and presumably in other similarly invaded areas. Our work stresses the importance of long-term monitoring in elucidating impacts of invasive alien plants at the community level, particularly when dealing with slow-growing and long-lived species. Plausible mechanisms bringing about the observed changes and that have been found at the same or similar sites, include reduced regeneration, growth, production of flowers and fruits and increased mortality of native trees when these grow among invasive alien plants. The control of invasive alien plants, where they invade tropical forests, should be a central conservation objective even in better preserved and well protected areas. © 2016 International Association for Vegetation Science",,94-105,,1,20,,Appl.

Designed to control weeds, these herbicides are equally potent towards non-target marine species, and the close proximity of seagrass meadows to flood plumes has raised concerns that seagrasses may be the species most threatened by herbicides from runoff. While previous work has identified effects of PSII herbicides on the photophysiology, growth and mortality in seagrass, there is little comparative quantitative toxicity data for seagrass. Here we applied standard ecotoxicology protocols to quantify the concentrations of four priority PSII herbicides that inhibit photochemistry by 10, 20 and 50% (IC10, IC20 and IC50) over 72 h in two common seagrass species from the GBR lagoon. The photosystems of seagrasses Zostera muelleri and Halodule uninervis were shown to be generally more sensitive to the PSII herbicides Diuron, Atrazine, Hexazinone and Tebuthiuron than corals and tropical microalgae. The herbicides caused rapid inhibition of effective quantum yield ({increment}F/Fm?), indicating reduced photosynthesis and maximum effective yields (Fv/Fm) corresponding to chronic damage to PSII. The PSII herbicide concentrations which affected photosynthesis have been exceeded in the GBR lagoon and all of the herbicides inhibited photosynthesis at concentrations lower than current marine park guidelines. There is a strong likelihood that the impacts of light limitation from flood plumes and reduced photosynthesis from PSII herbicides exported in the same waters would combine to affect seagrass productivity. Given that PSII herbicides have been demonstrated to affect seagrass at environmental concentrations, we suggest that revision of environmental guidelines and further efforts to reduce PSII herbicide concentrations in floodwaters may both help protect seagrass meadows of the GBR from further decline. © 2013 Flores et al.",,,,9,8,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"Alismatidae; Animals; Anthozoa; article; atrazine; concentration response; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; coral; coral reef; Coral Reefs; diuron; ecotoxicology; Fluorescence; growth rate; Halodule uninervis; herbicide; Herbicides; hexazinone; IC 50; Inhibitory Concentration 50; lagoon; microalga; Microalgae; nonhuman; Pacific Ocean; photosynthesis; Photosynthesis; photosystem II; Photosystem II Protein Complex; phytotoxicity; quantum yield; Queensland; seagrass; Species Specificity; tebuthiuron; Water Pollutants, Chemical; zostera muelleri",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

One of the environmental issues currently faced by these communities is the overexploitation of marine resources, in turn leading to their deterioration. Protected natural areas that allow extractive activities such as fishing, have a-priori land-use and management tools to achieve economic development without compromising their ecosystems. The research reported here was conducted at the Laguna de Términos Wildlife Protection Area (APFFLT), located in the Mexican state of Campeche. This natural protected area (ANP) stretches across 706 147.67 ha and comprises the largest coastal lagoon in Mexico, Laguna de Términos, which is part of the ecological complex of the coastal plain system formed by the Grijalva and Usumacinta rivers. It is clearly suitable for fishing activities, both in inland waters and in the Gulf of Mexico, in fact being the most productive ANP in terms of fishery catches. This research revealed the organization system of fishing in APFFLT under the theory of the spatial organization of the economy. Various sources of information were considered. On the one hand, quantitative and cartographic sources provided by Mexican public institutions. on the other hand, qualitative sources from office and field investigations. From the literature review, the information was classified into three types: scientific, administrative, and journalism. Separately, field work included two visits to the study area. Three interview guidelines were developed: different semi-structured questionnares to be administered to fishers or administrative officials (heads of cooperatives, licensees and workhouse workers); and a unstructured guideline for staff of government and academic institutions. The qualitative analysis of the data collected was carried out using the inductive method. We used the constant-comparison aproach and axial coding weeking similary patterns between the various open responses. Specialized maps were built with official data and the results of the analysis of closed answers . The results of the research analyzed according to the economic organization, production and marketing, reveal the existence of three zones with unique dynamics: Northeastern (Isla Aguada and Sabancuy); Central (Ciudad del Carmen); and Southwestern (Atasta, Nuevo Campechito and Palizada). It is shown that the spatial organization of fishing activities depends primarily on how the resource is exploited, abundance and price of fishing products, fishing technology used, regulations currently in force, social and collective structure of fishers, and interconnectivity with communication and transport routes that distribute production to consumers. Likewise, the production and marketing models show two trends: one, linked to artisanal schemes characterized by the dominance of family economic structures, low production, lack of storage and transportation infrastructure, and an essentially local marketing scope that restrains profits; the other is more industrial, involving dynamic economic units that are more productive and targeting species of medium and high commercial value; these units invest in infrastructure and focus on finding marketing channels of greater scope - a strategy that ultimately leads to higher revenue. The irruption of international markets and the arrival of foreign investment have impacted not only the way of fishing, but its spatial configuration as well; the fishing pressure on the ANP is significant, being overwhelmed by a steady increase of fishers and boats, beyond the fishing licensed issued. The APFFLT management program has not participated in the management of local fisheries, and in spite of the existence of a fisheries management tool such as the National Fishing Chart, in reality this is merely a document of good intentions. In addition, the Fisheries and Aquaculture Master Plan for the State of Campeche approved in 2013, is unfortunately not yielding the desired results yet. Fishing in the APFFLT involves major challenges, some related to the oil extraction in its vicinity; others, to the presence of emerging intensive African palm-tree plantations; and finally others associated with the organization of the fishing sector itself. Indeed, initiating the latter requires to gain knowledge on the spatial organization of commercial coastal fishing, which is the subject of this research article. © 2018 Instituto de Geografia.

This study used a multi-species Fish-index to compare ecological indicators such as biomass, abundance, trophic structure and reproductive potential between multiple-use and no-take sanctuary zones. Seven study reefs were surveyed; six in South Africa and a non-MPA reef in southern Mozambique. Randomly stratified underwater visual censuses (UVC) using the point count technique were used to survey fish communities. Environmental variables and habitat characteristics were also recorded. Nonmetric multidimensional scaling ordinations were similar for abundance and biomass trends and revealed a high degree of overlap between all zones, except for the no-take Sanctuaries. The latter formed discrete clusters and were significantly different (Analysis of Similarity) to the other zones. Total abundance and biomass were highest in the Sanctuary zones and lowest in the Open zone. Differences in trophic composition between zones were largely due to predatory species. This was supported by similarity percentages analysis (SIMPER) which identified six discriminating species. Length-frequency analysis of these species revealed consistent trends with higher numbers of large individuals in the Sanctuary zones and reduced numbers of small individuals in zones open to human activity. These results along with those of the Generalised Linear Models (GLM) demonstrate that human activities are affecting the southern African coral reef fish communities. Marginal differences between the multiple-use MPA zones on the South African reefs and the non-MPA reef in southern Mozambique suggest that MPA management objectives require re-evaluation. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,130-139,,,84,,Ocean Coast.

Particular attention has been placed on the potential utility of areas within which all extractive activities are prohibited (No-Take Zones, NTZs) for management. The no-take reserve concept builds on and extends traditional closure strategies in fishery management by providing more inclusive protection for populations, communities, and habitats. Marine reserves in general have now been implemented on a global basis but relatively few provide the full protection of no-take zones and many currently lack effective management plans and enforcement. Established no-take reserves often demonstrate increases in biomass or abundance and average size within reserve boundaries. In some instances, benefits in terms of yield and resilience to exploitation have been documented, although much greater attention to this issue will be required as the experience with reserves increases. Predicted performance of reserves is strongly dependent on underlying model structures and assumptions. Whole-life-cycle models with sedentary adults and a dispersive pre-recruit stage often indicate important benefits of reserves in terms of resilience to exploitation. Partial life-cycle models of the harvestable component of the population show a relative loss of yield per recruit with reserves when dispersal rates are high, except when fishing mortality is also high. In all cases, the uncertainty associated with actual dispersal processes at different life stages is the most challenging aspect of predicting reserve performance. We conclude that no-take zones do hold considerable promise as part of an integrated management strategy for ecosystem-based management. The ability of NTZs to meet specific fishery management objectives strongly depends on the life history and dispersal characteristics of the species.",,375-392,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Science Inc.,,,,ecosystem; environmental assessment; global perspective; marine resource; resource management,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Most (11/13) studies addressed target 14.1 concerned with enriching the marine environment with nutrients and minerals; two addressed target 14.4 focused on ensuring fish stocks are within biologically sustainable levels; two addressed target 14.7 aimed at increasing the economic benefits through sustainable use of marine resources such as fisheries; and one focused on target 14.5 aimed at conserving marine areas by increasing protected areas. In addition, one ecological study assessed the association between the ecosystem and ECC. Conclusions: Currently, there is little known about the impact of protection of marine and coastal ecosystem from pollution and ocean acidification on the risk of ECC. Further evidence on possible associations between life below water and ECC management is needed. © 2023, The Author(s).",,,,1,23,,BMC Oral Health,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: BioMed Central Ltd,,,,"animal; Animals; child; Child; Child, Preschool; dental caries; Dental caries; Dental Caries; Dental Caries Susceptibility; ecosystem; Ecosystem; human; Humans; Hydrobiology; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Marine life; Oceans and seas; pH; Preschool; preschool child; sea water; Seawater; sustainable development; Sustainable development; Sustainable Development; water; Water",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This presents the biotic and abiotic components of the landscapes needed to maintain environmental services. Thus, the objective of this work to identify the priority areas for environmental conservation in Santa Maria, using the methodology of multicriteria analysis, which assists in the decision-making process. The use of this methodology, with application in the mappings developed in ArcGis® presented the north sector of the study area, east-west direction, as an extreme conservation priority. In this sector, attributes of the landscape were identified that perform environmental services in favor of local society, combined with scientific, aesthetic, economic, ecological and cultural values, such as the area that covers the sub-basin of the Rio Vacacaí-Mirim, of extreme priority for conservation. With the identification of the priority areas, it is corroborated the need for a spatial planning in order to maintain the environmental services performed by the attributes of the landscapes. Thus, based on the results of this scientific-based work, the priority areas should be considered in studies that allow the creation of a conservation unit, in which the effectiveness is sought by the public power, with the support of local communities and educational centers. © 2020 Universidade Federal do Parana.

Extant success criteria focus on persistence, area, and habitat quality (shoot density). These metrics, while conservative, remain largely accepted for the seagrass ecosystem. Computation of the replacement ratio using economic tools has recently been integrated with seagrass restoration and is based on the intrinsic recovery rate of the injured seagrass beds themselves as compared with the efficacy of the restoration itself. In this application, field surveys of injured seagrass beds in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS) were conducted over several years and provide the basis for computing the intrinsic recovery rate and thus, the replacement ratio. This computation is performed using the Habitat Equivalency Analysis (HEA) and determines the lost on-site services pertaining to the ecological function of an area as the result of an injury and sets this against the difference between intrinsic recovery and recovery afforded by restoration. Joining empirical field data with economic theory has produced a reasonable and typically conservative means of determining the level of restoration and this has been fully supported in Federal Court rulings.

Recreational shore fishing along the coast of the marine reserve of Cap de Creus (NW Mediterranean) was studied in 2007 and 2009 based on roving creel surveys (on-site angler surveys during which anglers' harvests are examined by the survey clerk). The study aimed to assess the biological impacts of this leisure activity on coastal fish stocks and the potential risks arising from the use of exotic baits. 2. Recreational shore fishers employ seven different fishing techniques, of which the bottom fishing rod (a fishing rod whose hooks, together with the bait, lie on the bottom or near it by means of a heavy weight) is by far the most widely used method (nearly 90% of observations). In total, 25 fish species were identified in the catch from the bottom fishing rod. 3. The estimated annual shore fishing catches (c.3 tons) are much lower than those obtained by recreational boat and spear fishing (c.20 tons each), and those from commercial (artisanal) fishing (c.50 tons). The weighted mean vulnerability index and trophic level values in the catch from the bottom fishing rod are 52.2 and 4.03, respectively. 4. A minimum of 43% of the baits used by the shore anglers were live, non-native species (mostly polychaetes). 5. Overall, results highlight the impact of shore angling on coastal fish communities of a protected area and the increasing environmental risks arising from the use of exotic marine baits, which constitute a potential and unregulated vector of introduction of non-native species in the Mediterranean.

The dynamics that make up the traditional territories have not been considered by the legally protected area of the Conservation Unit, with different implications from their conservation objectives and management category. This reaffirms the context of vulnerability of territories with direct implications for the maintenance of traditional livelihoods, diversification of activities, modes of appropriation, food sovereignty, conditions of adaptation and change, including risks to the sustainability of the environment. As a framework for this article, two contexts of analysis are mobilized. In one, the processes of licensing and environmental compensation of large enterprises in the coastal zone are associated to the process of creating Conservation Units, arbitrarily in the category of integral protection, in detriment of Extractive Reserves (Resex) and Sustainable Development Reserves (RDS). Such a condition weakens the human, social, physical, economic and natural assets that make up the ways of life and, consequently, the territory of the traditional populations. In another, the context of the re-categorization of Conservation Units deviates the management space by involving other bridging organizations, such as the judiciary, outlining a scenario that reaffirms the vulnerability context of traditional communities, since the dimension of informal institutions and territorial expressions are not considered. As an analytical framework, the article presents the perspective of Sustainable Livelihoods Approach.

The overall aim is to protect ecological structures, functions and processes while providing sustainable flows of goods and services for people. A key element of the GFE project is the integration of a protected area into its regional landscape as a single greater ecosystem. At the core of the GFE project is Fundy National Park (FNP), a small (206 km2) national park located on the upper Bay of Fundy in New Brunswick, Canada. The landscape surrounding the park is managed mainly for industrial forestry, often to the park boundary. The contrast between the park and adjacent landscape led to concerns that the ecological integrity of FNP was being affected and that these stresses should be defined and, if needed mitigated. During our research and the development of guidelines related to the maintenance of forest biodiversity, it became apparent that successful implementation of an ecologically sustainable landscape relies on several key things. These include: a landscape-level appreciation of ecological process; stand-scale application of best-management practices; a political climate that supports change in forest management practices; and a vehicle for stakeholders to work for change. The Fundy Model Forest, one of ten such sites in Canada, was the vehicle that allowed partners to reach a comfortable balance of objectives with values for the environment and economy. Fundy National Park represented a benchmark for conducting comparative research of the impacts of industrial forestry and 'natural' forest. In our work we found that the large protected area was instrumental in distributing the perceived costs of biodiversity over an ecologically-defined forestry operation. Industrial forest managers were more willing to adopt objective-based guidelines than restrictive practice-based rules. The process of making science into guidelines requires a recognition of the limitations of the science and the stage when that science is replaced by professional judgment.",,15-23,,,27,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 3 Journal Abbreviation: Environments,,,,Canada; ecosystem management; Greater Fundy Ecosystem; national park; nature conservation; protected area; Regional approaches; Research and monitoring,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Environments,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Naso lituratus (orangespine unicornfish) and Naso unicornis (bluespine unicornfish) are widespread species that are heavily targeted in many nearshore fisheries of Pacific Island countries. In addition to providing a critical food and income source, both species fulfil critical ecological functions in the top-down control of coral reef macroalgae; particularly fleshy brown algae (i.e. Sargassum spp.) which can out-compete and smother corals. 2. Despite heavy long-term harvesting, there are currently very limited species-specific management measures. This review assesses the biology and ecology of both species, and combines this with the current status of the fisheries in the Pacific, and proposes realistic ecosystem-based species-specific fisheries policies. 3. Although unicornfish populations have displayed continuing resilience to heavy fishing pressure, reports of declining stocks combined with a range of life-history traits (i.e. longevity, habitat-specificity, easily targeted aggregations), indicate that both species are vulnerable to overexploitation. Modern day common fishing practices such as scuba and night-time spearfishing are intensifying their exploitation. 4. The most effective management measure would be fishing effort constraints, including banning modern and unsustainable methods. However, owing to enforcement limitations in Pacific Islands, the most practical approach to management would include a combination of management tools, including periodic sales bans around identified spawning times (i.e. Hawaii; May-June), and size/catch limits. 5. Furthermore, home range data suggest that even with limited knowledge, small MPAs (<1 km(2)) in structurally complex areas using natural boundaries should accommodate the movement patterns of both species and provide sufficient protection; although MPAs of >10 km linear distance are recommended for N. lituratus. 6. This comprehensive review confirms the pressing need for implementation of the aforementioned management practices to protect these species in regions where they are heavily targeted, and prevent the impairment of their critical ecological function and importance as a food and income source.

All of our samples were temporally replicated, with most samples obtained in 2000 and 2001. We had three goals: (1) to confirm the status of populations identified on the basis of spawning location and life history; (2) to estimate effective population sizes and migration rates in order to determine demographic independence at different spatial scales; and (3) to determine if releases of Washington hatchery coho salmon in the 1980's into Oregon Coast streams resulted in measurable introgression into nearby wild Oregon Coast coho populations. For the last question, our study included a hatchery broodstock sample from 1985, after the Puget Sound introduction, and a 1975 sample taken from the same area prior to the introduction. Our results generally supported previously hypothesized population structure. Most importantly, we found unique lake-rearing groups identified on the basis of a common life-history type were genetically related. Estimates of immigrant fraction using several different methods also generally supported previously identified populations. Estimates of effective population size were highly correlated with estimates of spawning abundance. The 1985 hatchery sample was genetically similar to contemporary Washington samples, and the contemporary Oregon Coast samples were similar to the 1975 Oregon Coast sample, suggesting that introductions of Washington coho salmon did not result in large scale introgression into Oregon populations. © 2004 Kluwer Academic Publishers.",,797-812,,6,5,,Conserv.

In Europe, the implementation of the Natura 2000 network requires protocols to recognize and map threats to biodiversity and to identify specific mitigation actions. We propose a systematic conservation planning approach to optimize management actions against specific threats based on two fundamental parameters: biodiversity values and threat pressure. We used the conservation planning software Marxan to optimize a fire management plan in a Natura 2000 coastal network in southern Italy. We address three primary questions: i) Which areas are at high fire risk? ii) Which areas are the most valuable for threatened biodiversity? iii) Which areas should receive priority risk-mitigation actions for the optimal effect?, iv) which fire-prevention actions are feasible in the management areas?. The biodiversity values for the Natura 2000 spatial units were derived from the distribution maps of 18 habitats and 89 vertebrate species of concern in Europe (Habitat Directive 92/43/EEC). The threat pressure map, defined as fire probability, was obtained from digital layers of fire risk and of fire frequency. Marxan settings were defined as follows: a) planning units of 40 × 40 m, b) conservation features defined as all habitats and vertebrate species of European concern occurring in the study area, c) conservation targets defined according with fire sensitivity and extinction risk of conservation features, and d) costs determined as the complement of fire probabilities. We identified 23 management areas in which to concentrate efforts for the optimal reduction of fire-induced effects. Because traditional fire prevention is not feasible for most of policy habitats included in the management areas, alternative prevention practices were identified that allows the conservation of the vegetation structure. The proposed approach has potential applications for multiple landscapes, threats and spatial scales and could be extended to other valuable natural areas, including protected areas. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,574-581,,,181,,J.

Information on large felid and prey habitat use in isolated habitats in Panamá is therefore limited. Here, we estimated occupancy and detection probabilities, as affected by habitat and anthropogenic influences, for 2 felid species (jaguars [Panthera onca] and pumas [Puma concolor]), and 2 prey species (white-lipped peccaries [Tayassu pecari] and collared peccaries [Pecari tajacu]). Methods: Camera trap surveys were conducted during 2014–2015 at Cerro Hoya National Park (CHNP), an isolated remnant of tropical rainforest habitat, and Darién National Park (DNP), a large tract of continuous rainforest habitat. We used single-season, single-species occupancy modeling to estimate probabilities of detection and habitat use of our focal species. Results: Three of the 4 focal species were detected at both sites, excluding white-lipped peccary at CHNP. Detection of jaguars and white-lipped peccaries at DNP was highest in February, while detection of collared peccaries at DNP and pumas at CHNP was highest in May and April, respectively. Peccary habitat use was uniform across sites and unaffected by habitat covariates. Both felids preferred habitat further away from anthropogenic disturbance, and jaguars preferred habitat at higher elevations than pumas. Conclusion: We further confirm the presence of jaguars and likely local extirpation of white-lipped peccaries in CHNP. Temporal variations influenced detections of focal species. Habitat use of felids was negatively affected by anthropogenic disturbance and elevation. Implications for Conservation Habitat fragmentation and human activities negatively influenced habitat use of felids at both study areas. Given that CHNP serves as one of the last remnants of forest habitat outside the Central Cordillera, we recommend that CHNP be considered a top priority area for wildlife conservation in Panamá. © The Author(s) 2022.",,,,,15,,Trop.

However, for highly mobile and adaptable marine species, such a tool might not be the most effective way to achieve conservation objectives, unless this includes a broader consideration of the direct threats to these species throughout their range. Considering that the N2k network requires that a ""significant proportion"" of 60% of the population be under protection, this creates a challenge for the conservation of these wide-ranging species. This paper reviews the efficacy of the N2k network as it is presently implemented within the Adriatic Sea for the conservation of two highly mobile marine species-the common bottlenose dolphin and the loggerhead turtle. In particular, it considers the appropriateness of the current Sites of Community Importance (SCIs) in the region and the relevance of the existing marine N2k network for the conservation of these species. It provides new insights on the approach used to evaluate SCI designations highlighting important weaknesses in the system, including threat identification after SCI designation, and the relevance of SCI size in relation to management commitments. Data from two basin-wide aerial surveys were used to define areas of relative high density of these species, in comparison to other areas in the basin. Given the ambitious 60% conservation target of the N2k network, analysis shows that site-based protection tools are unlikely to be sufficient to protect a ""significant proportion"" of either species, unless very large areas are designated as SCIs. However, given that the main threats known to affect these species in this region (i.e., fishery bycatch and seismic surveys) are present throughout the basin, these large SCIs would still have limited conservation success without implementing other wide-scale mitigation measures. For these two species, the Member States and the European Union authorities should give higher priority to the implementation of another pillar of the Habitats Directive, mitigating accidental catches in fishing gear and other human-induced mortalities.

During the 349 hours where video quality was high, we had 27 hours where at least one intruder entered the area and 144 intruders total. Most of the intrusions were in the evening (1600-1900), during low tide, and on days with higher attendance. Signage communicating video recording of the bird sanctuary led to a strong negative impact on intrusion and was statistically significant (P = 0.01).

Consequently, the need to create and implement a comprehensive network of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) to help manage and protect these resources has become a global political priority. Efforts are currently underway to implement MPA networks in the deep North East Atlantic. To ensure these networks are effective, it is essential that baseline information be available to inform the conservation planning process. Using empirical data, we calculated conservation targets for sessile benthic invertebrates in the deep North East Atlantic for consideration during the planning process. We assessed Species-Area Relationships across two depth bands (200-1100 m and 1100-1800 m) and nine substrata. Conservation targets were predicted for each substratum within each depth band using z-values obtained from fitting a power model to the Species-Area Relationships of observed and estimated species richness (Chao1). Results suggest an MPA network incorporating 10% of the North East Atlantic's deep-sea area would protect approximately 58% and 49% of sessile benthic species for the depth bands 200-1100 m and 1100-1800 m, respectively. Species richness was shown to vary with substratum type indicating that, along with depth, substratum information needs to be incorporated into the conservation planning process to ensure the most effective MPA network is implemented in the deep North East Atlantic. © 2013 Foster, et al.",,,,3,8,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,article; Atlantic Ocean; benthos; Biodiversity; Conservation of Natural Resources; Ecosystem; environmental parameters; environmental planning; environmental protection; Marine Biology; marine environment; mathematical analysis; Population Density; species area relationship; species conservation; species richness,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Historically, MPAs have been established on an individual ad hoc basis, rather than through a systematic, planned process. However, high levels of functional and spatial connectivity within marine ecosystems have led to the suggestion that networks of MPAs provide greater ecological benefits than individual MPAs. Consequently, international policy has developed to consider broader spatial requirements for marine conservation, resulting in a number of international and regional agreements that require the establishment of ecologically coherent MPA networks. Existing MPAs are now being considered, retrospectively, alongside new designations, as networks of MPAs across regions, both nationally and internationally. Under the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD), France, the Republic of Ireland, and the UK (including Northern Ireland and the Isle of Man) are required to work together to ensure coordinated development of marine strategies for the Celtic Seas subregion. Accordingly, MPAs have been identified as crucial components of the programme of measures to achieve Good Environmental Status (GES) under the MSFD. Here, we provide the first ecological coherence assessment of an MPA network spanning an MSFD subregion. A network of 533 MPAs, or parts thereof, across the Celtic Seas subregion was assessed using five criteria and two methodologies, with a focus on broadscale habitats. While the Celtic Seas MPA network as a whole is not ecologically coherent (according to accepted thresholds), progress toward a number of global targets has been achieved, for example, protection of 10% of marine and coastal areas under the Convention on Biological Diversity. Further, all MSFD predominant habitat types assessed are adequately represented and replicated within the network. However, a number of gaps were identified, including a lack of MPAs in offshore and deeper areas, and inadequate proportions of predominant habitat types within MPAs. Addressing these gaps to enable the MPA network to fulfill its critical role in the delivery of GES under the MSFD will require both national progress toward designation of adequate and viable MPAs and transboundary agreements and coordination of MPA designation processes at the European level. © 2017 Foster et al.",,,,2,8,,Ecosphere,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Ecological Society of America,,,,biodiversity conservation; Biodiversity conservation; CONSERVATION; marine protected area; Marine protected area; Marine Strategy Framework Directive; OSPAR; predominant habitat type; Predominant habitat type; PROGRESS; TARGETS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Size and spacing rules (SSRs) have been proposed as simple MPA design guidelines, especially in regions where population connectivity data are limited. We assessed whether SSRs allow managers to design effective MPA networks under spatiotemporally varying dispersal patterns using a spatially realistic population model parameterized for a commercially-exploited fish species on the Great Barrier Reef. SSRs are used to design MPA networks, and population simulations are used to measure the mean and variance of the resulting population size and fishery catch. We show that SSR performance is contingent on the extent of the MPA network, and whether species’ connectivity data can be used to target areas for protection. For example, in the absence of connectivity data, a “many small” MPAs rule provides the least variable management outcome. Synthesis and applications. We demonstrate that the performance and usefulness of size and spacing rules (SSRs) as guidelines for marine protected areas (MPAs) depend on the level of knowledge about larval dispersal, as well as the level of current exploitation in the fishery.

The aim was to provide information on important marine habitats, longterm changes in community structure and the life history (particularly longevity and growth rales) and ecology of species of high nature conservation interest. The benthic studies mainly concentrated on communities of Mediterranean-Atlantic species which are at or near the northern limits of their distribution in the study sites. Many of the species and communities studied are very stable, long-lived and slow recruiting. They are, therefore, also vulnerable to damage. Southern species of cup corals were found to grow slowly and reproduce very infrequently, with populations showing a general decline during the study period. Species of sponges and southern soft corals also typically displayed very slow growth. Periods of above or below average sea water temperature arc considered to be particularly important factors affecting the persistence of Mediterranean-Atlantic species, with higher temperatures linked with recruitment events in scleractinians and unusually cold temperatures appearing to stop growth or even cause contraction in colony size or death in some species, such as certain sponges. The results illustrate the importance of abnormal climate years on species at the geographical limits of their distribution. The extreme stability of these communities of high nature conservation interest has implications for reserve management. Because of their poor capacity for recovery, long-lived and slowly recruiting Mediterranean-Atlantic species are considered to be particularly vulnerable to minor and infrequent damage, which might readily be overlooked in other communities, as well as to more major and widespread damaging events. Monitoring at Lundy and the Isles of Scilly will act as important control sites for monitoring work in the marine environment elsewhere around Britain. © 1993.",,109-127,,01-Feb,172,,J. Exp. Mar.

Multi-objective network optimization highlighted previously unreported step changes in the structure of optimal subnetworks for protection associated with minimal changes in cost or benefit functions. This emphasizes the desirability of performing a full, unconstrained, multi-objective optimization for marine spatial planning. Brute force methods, examining all possible combinations of protected and unprotected sites for a network of sites, are impractical for all but the smallest networks as the number of possible networks grows as 2                             m                             , where m is the number of sites within the network. A metaheuristic method based around Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods is described which searches for the set of Pareto optimal networks (or a good approximation thereto) given two separate objective functions, for example for network quality or effectiveness, population persistence, or cost of protection. The optimization and search methods are independent of the choice of objective functions and can be easily extended to more than two functions. The speed, accuracy and convergence of the method under a range of network configurations are tested with model networks based on an extension of random geometric graphs. Examination of two real-world marine networks, one designated for the protection of the stony coral Lophelia pertusa, the other a hypothetical man-made network of oil and gas installations to protect hard substrate ecosystems, demonstrates the power of the method in finding multi-objective optimal solutions for networks of up to 100 sites. Results using network average shortest path as a proxy for population resilience and gene flow within the network supports the use of a conservation strategy based around highly connected clusters of sites.                          © 2019 Fox, Corne, Mayorga Adame, Polton, Henry and Roberts.",,,,FEB,6,,Front.

However, costs of monitoring can be high in relation to program budgets, so it is critical to design monitoring efforts to ensure a high return on investment. To assess the relative contribution of different monitoring strategies to yield information for management decisions, we examine the evolution of a multi-year monitoring program across several MPAs in West Papua, Indonesia. Three monitoring strategies were implemented: external expert, science practitioner, and community monitoring staff. We place the monitoring objectives in a decision science framework, with six explicit fundamental objectives for monitoring to evaluate performance of marine protected areas. We examine each strategy in light of the six objectives to evaluate: 1) power to detect change, 2) extent of local capacity development, and 3) cost effectiveness. Over time, costs were reduced and scientific value increased through clear communication of science objectives, outcome-driven experimental design, adequately resourced monitoring programs, and a long-term view that anticipates phasing out outside consultants and transitioning monitoring responsibilities fully to locally-based staff. Investments to develop capacity of staff living locally to perform data management, analysis, interpretation, and science communication proved the most cost-effective approach in the long-term. With many globally important ecosystems in developing countries, developing local scientific capacity for the full cycle of monitoring is key to informed decision-making and ensuring long-term sustainability of efforts to conserve biodiversity. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,299-309,,,210,,Biol.

Wide variability across sites with regard to the indicators examined and the constructs used to measure them prevented a true meta-analysis. Managers assessed biophysical indicators more often than socioeconomic and governance constructs. Investment by the conservation community to support collecting and reporting high-quality data at the site level would enable a better understanding of the variation in MPA performance, clarify the contribution of MPAs to both biodiversity conservation and poverty alleviation, and help drive better MPA performance.

A country's coastline length is the strongest predictor of both the number and spatial extent of MPAs. Controlling for coastline, the Human Development Index (HDI) and spatial overlap with designated conservation priority areas are positively correlated with MPA establishment. Surprisingly, some factors influencing MPA establishment in case studies, such as percentage of fishers within a population, were not correlated with MPA establishment on a national scale. These national dynamics explain a relatively small proportion of variation, however, indicating that other biological or social factors, as well as sub-national processes, also influence MPA establishment.

However, the effects of MPA implementation (i.e. restrictions on extractive use) on recreational fishers' spatial behaviour are often not considered. Spatial shifts in fishing pressure and which port fishers choose to fish from can have ecological and economic impacts. Therefore, it is critical that MPA impacts on recreational fishers are adequately investigated and weighed against potential conservation benefits from MPA designation. The State of Oregon, USA, has a system of five no-take marine reserves (MRs) with adjacent limited-take MPAs. This study used an interrupted time series approach to investigate how fishing licence sales were impacted by MR implementation. This study found that recreational fishers near only one MR were potentially adversely impacted by MR implementation. The proportion of coastal licence sales near Redfish Rocks MR displayed an immediate sustained 47.1% proportional decrease following reserve implementation. Conversely, there was a 0.5% proportional increase in monthly demand for licence sales near Otter Rock and Cascade Head MRs. This study suggests that most MRs in Oregon were designated in a manner that limited significant adverse impacts to some ocean users, a specified MR objective. The process of MR planning in Oregon, which involved considerable public input, could be used as an example for MR designation in other similar settings. However, when a potential MR site and adjacent town's conditions match those at Redfish Rocks MR, there may be adverse socio-economic impacts that should be weighed against potential ecological benefits. This study also demonstrates the application of an interrupted time series approach. When sufficient data are available, this is a robust approach that addresses numerous shortfalls of traditional MPA impact evaluations. © 2022 The Authors.

The aim of this study is to describe the interactions between different combinations of relief, soil, water availability, and vegetation in the Caribbean coast of Yucatan Peninsula using four toposequences to generate basic information for rational use and more effective conservation of resources in that area. The relief is plain with a slight slope and undulations that tend to form flooded areas during the rainy season. To characterize transects, stratified sampling was used in 38 points. Landforms that dominate the area are karst depressions, sandy beach, sandy dune ridges, and geological steps. The vegetation types are coastal dune vegetation, coastal scrub, three types of mangrove (red, white, and buttonwood), semiperennial and subdeciduous low forest, disturbed low forest, and natural and induced palm forests. According to the World Reference Base for Soil Resources, soils identified were Leptosol, Phaeozem, Solonchak, Gleysol, Arenosol, and Histosol. Soil groups have a wide variety of primary and secondary qualifiers due to extreme conditions that change often. The sequence of soil along the catenas is related to the distance to the beach and landforms. Thus, their presence and sequencing in each of them is not the same. Near the waterfront are the Arenosols; Leptosols lie in the far west. The distribution of the remaining soil groups between these two points varies with depressions, temporary or seasonal flooding areas, proximity to the sea, and depth of the water table. Diversity of these soil groups show the great heterogeneity of the karstic relief. Results of this study are worth using to prepare the management plan of the natural protected area and to be applied in nearby zones with similar characteristics. © 2020 Instituto de Geolog+?-?a, Universidad Nacional Aut+?-?noma de M+?-?xico.",,Jan-17,,2,72,,Bol.

This chapter aims to summarize the most relevant physical–chemical, geological and biological changes that occurred in the marine ecosystem of El Hierro island, at the Marine Reserve Punta de La Restinga—El Mar de Las Calmas, due to the genesis of the new underwater volcano Tagoro (27ş37?07?N–017ş59?28?W) in October 2011. During the first six months of the eruption, extreme physical–chemical perturbations caused by this event, comprising thermal increase from up to + 18.8 °C, water acidification with a pH decrease of 2.9 units, deoxygenation to anoxic levels and extremely high metal enrichment among others, resulted in significant and dramatic alterations of the marine ecosystem. After March 2012, once the eruptive phase was finished, the new submarine volcano entered an active hydrothermal phase involving the release of heat with smaller but still significant and important thermal anomalies of up to + 2.55 °C around the craters, density decrease of ? 1.43 kg m?3, pH decrease of ? 1.25 units, and high concentrations of metals and inorganic nutrients similar to upwelling zones. These enrichments are still active up to date, producing clear signs of marine recovery not only in the benthonic strata but also in the whole water column compared with pre-eruptive data. Since its eruption ten years ago, an unprecedented monitoring effort has turned into the longest and most complete multidisciplinary time-series for the study of a shallow submarine volcano, with the realization of 31 oceanographic multidisciplinary expeditions that systematically measure more than 40 different physical–chemical and biological variables. All this information and the results obtained during the evolution of the process could serve as a baseline for better understanding future or similar submarine eruptions worldwide. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,161-184,,,Part F1209,,,,,,,,Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Active Volcan.

Although some studies have measured spillover by examining gradients of fish abundance and body size across reserve boundaries, there are no such studies to date including information from before reserve establishment, thus seriously limiting interpretation of results. We measured reef fish spillover from a NTR (Itacolomis Reef, Eastern Brazil) by estimating biomass and body size across the reserve boundary before (2001) and after (2002-2005) initiation of protection. Replicate sites were sampled inside and outside the reserve, with unprotected sites included in three distance categories from the reserve boundary: 0-400, 400-800 and 800-1200 m. This latter category generally surpasses the scales over which spillover is expected to influence patterns of fish abundance outside reserves (generally <500 m), particularly for relatively sedentary fishes, thus acting as a control for the reserve effect. Habitat measurements were undertaken at the same sites, from 2003 on. Biomass of Scarus trispinosus, a major fishery resource and the dominant species in terms of biomass (37.4% of total biomass), was lower inside the reserve area before its establishment. During this same period, no individuals of two primary target species, Mycteroperca bonaci and Sparisoma axillare, were recorded inside the reserve. Coral cover was consistently lower inside the reserve from 2003 on. Biomass and body size of M. bonaci, as well as biomass of Ocyurus chrysurus, increased continuously inside the reserve after its establishment, with no similar increases recorded in control sites. Evidences of spillover (i.e. higher biomass inside the reserve and in unprotected sites closer to its boundary) were obtained for M. bonaci, O. chrysurus and S. trispinosus, although this pattern was only marginally significant for O. chrysurus. Despite these positive signs, recovery and spillover of S. trispinosus were probably inhibited by increased poaching from 2003 on. Our results indicate that the NTR at Itacolomis Reef was established a priori on poor quality habitats. Thus, future spatial comparisons between protected and unprotected sites would underestimate changes due to protection. These findings highlight the importance of baseline information and continued monitoring for adequately understanding the effects of NTRs, as well as the need of closer collaboration between natural and social scientists in order to effectively protect high-quality habitats in the long term while accounting for the socio-economic needs of local fishing communities. © 2008 Elsevier B.V.

Ten rig were tracked for up to four months during summer-autumn to determine their spatial and temporal use of the habitat. The overall goal was to estimate the size of Marine Protected Areas required to protect rig nursery areas from direct human impacts. Rig showed clear site preferences, but those preferences varied among rig and over time. They spent most of their time in large basins and on shallow sand and mud flats around the margins, and avoided deep channels. Habitat range increased during autumn for many of the rig. Only one shark spent time in both harbour arms, indicating that there was little movement between the two. Rig home ranges were 2-7 km2, suggesting that an effective MPA would need to cover the entire Porirua Harbour. They moved to outer harbour sites following some high river flow rates, and most left the harbour permanently during or soon after a river spike, suggesting that they were avoiding low salinity water. Rig showed strong diel movements during summer, although the diel pattern weakened in autumn. Persistent use of the same day and night sites indicates that diel movements are directed rather than random. Further research is required to determine the sizes of rig home ranges in larger harbours where nursery habitat is more extensive. Marine Protected Areas do not control land-based impacts such as accelerated sedimentation and heavy metal pollution, so integration of marine and terrestrial management tools across a range of government agencies is essential to fully protect nursery areas. © 2013 Malcolm P.

Due to this biological invasion, Argentina and Chile signed an agreement to restore affected ecosystems by eradicating beavers. In southern Patagonia, the beavers' ecological impacts are well studied, but there is a relative lack of information on how their invasion (and potential removal) could affect bird communities. In the southern portion of Tierra del Fuego's 'big island' (Isla Grande), we conducted passive acoustic monitoring and avian point counts in intact riparian forests, beaver ponds and beaver meadows (i.e. drained ponds) to assess spatial and seasonal differences in acoustic activity and avian abundance, species diversity and functional diversity. During spring and summer, acoustic activity was significantly higher in meadows than in forests, with ponds exhibiting intermediate values. Abundance and species diversity exhibited similar patterns, driven largely by resident passerines, while functional diversity tended to be highest in ponds, largely due to ducks and raptors. Effects were weaker in fall and winter. Acoustic metrics exhibited moderate to strong correlations with all point-count-derived metrics. Synthesis and applications. At the patch level, the avian community was more abundant and diverse in beaver-modified habitats than in intact riparian forests, though communities in modified patches may not differ substantially from those in analogous natural open and wetland habitats. Dam breaching and pond drainage did not yield a return to an intact forest bird community, indicating that active reforestation may be necessary to restore avian communities to pre-beaver conditions in the short to medium term, as sought by the binational agreement.

Uncontrolled late season fires promote deforestation, produce greenhouse gases (~25% of Brazil's land-use related CO2 emissions between 2003 and 2005) and are a major threat to the conservation of biodiversity in protected areas. Governmental institutions therefore implemented early dry season (EDS) prescribed burnings as part of integrated fire management (IFM) in protected areas of the Cerrado, with the aim to reduce the area and severity of late dry season (LDS) fires. The planning and implementation of EDS prescribed burning is supported by satellite-based geo-information on fuel conditions, derived from Landsat 8 and Sentinel-2 data. The Mixture Tuned Matched Filtering algorithm was used to analyse the data, and the relationship between the resulting matched fractions (dry vegetation, green vegetation and soil) and in situ surface fuel samples was assessed. The linear regression of in situ data versus matched filter scores (MF scores) of dry vegetation showed an r2 of 0.81 (RMSE = 0.15) and in situ data versus MF scores of soil showed an r2 of 0.65 (RMSE = 0.38). To predict quantitative fuel load, a multiple linear regression analysis was carried out with MF scores of NPV and soil as predictors (adjusted r2 = 0.86; p < 0.001; standard error = 0.075). The fuel load maps were additionally evaluated by fire managers while planning EDS prescribed burning campaigns. The fuel load mapping approach has proven to be an effective tool for integrated fire management by improving the planning and implementation of prescribed burning, promoting pyrodiversity, prioritising fire suppression and evaluating fire management efforts to meet overall conservations goals. National and state level authorities have successfully institutionalized the approach and it was incorporated into IFM policies in Brazil. © 2018 Elsevier Inc.",,221-232,,,217,,Remote Sens.

Grassland use intensity is a key factor for the conservation value of grassland, and detailed spatial data on grassland use intensity is needed to improve strategies for biodiversity conservation. A new remote sensing-based approach using multi-temporal high resolution RapidEye satellite data was developed in the present study that makes a large-scale assessment of grassland use intensity possible. RapidEye is a constellation of five satellites with 6.5. m spatial resolution, which allows frequent and timely image acquisition targeted at specific growing seasons. Semi-natural grassland, extensively used grassland, intensively used grassland and tilled grassland could be reliably differentiated at the management plot level in a study area in southern Germany. Various combinations of images from different observation dates have been tested as classification input and their overall classification accuracies were validated by field data. Best results were achieved using a combination of five multi-temporal scenes with an overall accuracy of 85.7%. A three-scene combination resulted in an overall accuracy of 82.2%. The analysis showed that seasonal aspects are very important when selecting adequate observation dates. Grassland use intensity was also assessed on peatlands using a peat soil map, since land use intensity significantly affects greenhouse gas emissions from peatlands. The results demonstrate the potential of targeted multi-spectral, high spatial resolution remote sensing for the large-scale monitoring of dynamic habitats, which is of vital importance to support various environmental conservation schemes through improved monitoring and reporting capabilities. © 2012 Elsevier GmbH.",,125-134,,3,20,,J.

Spatially explicit Bayesian clustering techniques offer a powerful tool for ecology and wildlife management, as genetic divisions can be correlated with landscape features. We used these methods to analyse the genetic structure of a population of European wild boar Sus scrofa with the aim of identifying effective barriers for disease management units. However, it has been suggested that the methods could produce biased results when faced with deviations from random mating not caused by genetic discontinuities, such as isolation by distance (IBD). 2. We analysed a data set consisting of 697 wild boar multilocus genotypes using spatially explicit (baps, geneland) and non-explicit (structure) Bayesian methods. We also simulated and analysed data sets characterized by different degrees of IBD, with and without genetic discontinuities. 3. When analysing the empirical data set, different programs did not converge on the same clustering solution and some clusters were difficult to explain biologically. Results from the simulated data showed that IBD, also present in the empirical data set, could cause the Bayesian methods to overestimate genetic structure. Simulated barriers were identified correctly, but the programs superimposed further clusters at higher IBD levels. 4. It was not possible to ascertain with confidence whether the clustering solutions offered by the various programs were an accurate reflection of population genetic structure in our empirical data set or were artefacts created by the underlying IBD pattern. 5. Synthesis and applications: We show that Bayesian clustering methods can overestimate genetic structure when analysing an individual-based data set characterized by isolation by distance. This bias could lead to the erroneous delimitation of management or conservation units. Investigators should be critical and suspicious of clusters that cannot be explained biologically. Data sets should be tested for isolation by distance and conclusions should not be based on the output from just one method. © 2009 British Ecological Society.",,493-505,,2,46,,J. Appl.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are important tools to achieve local and global marine conservation targets. Marine ecosystems generate goods and services vital for human well-being. Their value can be explored not only from an economic viewpoint based on market and human preferences, but also using a biophysical perspective based on the accounting of environmental costs sustained for the generation of natural capital stocks and ecosystem services flows. In this study, the value of natural capital in the MPA “the Islands of Ventotene and S. Stefano” (Central Italy) was assessed applying a biophysical and trophodynamic environmental accounting model based on emergy accounting. The value of natural capital was estimated for the main habitats of the investigated MPA in terms of the work done by the biosphere for its generation and maintenance. Both the autotrophic and heterotrophic natural capital of the MPA was evaluated. The highest value of emergy density of 4.26?1011 sej m?2 was shown by the habitat “Posidonia oceanica seagrass bed” when investigating the autotrophic natural capital. The sciaphilic hard bottom habitat (coralligenous) showed the highest value of emergy density of 2.76?1012 sej m?2 when investigating the heterotrophic natural capital. The high emergy cost of coralligenous confirmed the importance of this habitat that represents one of the most important hot spot of species diversity in the Mediterranean Sea. The total emergy value of natural capital of the MPA was converted to monetary units by using the emergy-to-money ratio for Italy, resulting in 8.26 M€. Finally, a GIS tool was used to show the spatial distribution of natural capital values in relation to different habitats. The outcomes of this study highlighted the usefulness of the applied biophysical and trophodynamic environmental accounting model to explore the ecological value of natural capital in marine ecosystems while supporting local managers and policy makers for the sustainable development of MPAs. © 2017",,290-299,,,360,,Ecol.

The main goal of such a system is the calculation of the ecological and economic value of the MPAs, with particular reference to the ecosystem services generated in each protected area. Environmental and economic costs as well as the impacts related to human activities in the MPAs will be also assessed. Finally, an overall balance and the assessment of net benefits will be calculated. To reach this goal, a multicriteria environmental accounting system will be implemented following a standardized protocol of assessment. The outcomes of the project will be managed through an operational WebGIS platform capable of spreading user-friendly information to local managers, policy makers, and other stakeholders. The environmental accounting system will be structured to be updatable over time, thus representing a useful tool for the management of the MPAs in the years to come.

Ecosystem-based management (EBM) is a relatively new approach, and it is considered a promising solution to maintain ecosystem structure and function (Ruckelshaus et al., 2008). It represents an evolution from traditional management of single threats along single portions of ecosystems to large-scale management strategies within complex natural and socio-economic systems (Tallis et al., 2010). The aim of EBM is to sustain the long-term capacity of marine ecosystems to deliver the goods and services that society enjoys (e.g., seafood, clean water, protection from coastal erosion) while at the same time addressing the inherent trade-offs required to meet multiple management goals (Halpern et al., 2010). The consideration of human uses of and interactions with natural resources in EBM approaches improves the likelihood of achieving desired ecosystem outcomes (Gallagher et al., 2004). In 2005, McLeod et al. made a large contribution to defining EBM, but such efforts can still be considered as only the early stages of implementation and evaluation. The scientific community does not always agree about the principles that should inspire the management, conservation, and monitoring of marine environments (Worm et al., 2006; Bulleri et al., 2007; Hilborn, 2007; Stewart-Oaten, 2008; Lindenmayer and Likens, 2009). Although the importance of an ecosystem approach is widely accepted, its implementation is challenging in part due to perceptions that it is too complicated and has prohibitive information requirements (Tallis et al., 2010) and in part because it is ill-defined (Lotze, 2004). Scientific advice on the status of biodiversity and fish stocks, the effects of fishing and the role of marine protected areas (MPAs) are only small components in a complex management and decision-making process, in which scientific information often carries little weight in relation to immediate social and economic considerations (Jennings, 2004).

Residents and users of coastal areas often perceive marine conservation and management as limiting factors to economic development. Under these conditions, the creation of comprehensive systems of marine protected areas (MPAs) can be problematic. We selected a stretch of coast in southern Italy as a representative example of a Mediterranean coastline and nearshore marine ecosystems, featuring a complex matrix of vulnerable habitats in a landscape fragmented by multiple human activities and associated stressors. Through the use of site-selection algorithms, we investigated how human activities constrain MPA planning. Rather than assuming that patches of the same habitat found at different locations are interchangeable, we considered the scenario of a heterogeneous landscape of human impacts creating high variability in habitat quality. Despite widespread human influence, identification of portions of habitats to be protected from direct human disturbance as core no-take areas is still possible using the inclusion of 10 and 30% of low and high priority habitat, respectively, in reserves as a conservation target. Implementation of MPAs with a limited protection scheme that also include several small no-take areas could represent a feasible strategy for the conservation of Mediterranean coastal marine habitats. Moreover, MPAs could be combined with coastal zoning of activities as a means of further controlling effects over broader areas and allowing for recovery of degraded areas. Site-selection algorithms are invaluable tools for conservation planning. However, careful consideration of the potential constraints imposed by local human activities and future research aimed at filling existing gaps in understanding the ecology are crucial for making this approach useful in marine conservation planning. © Inter-Research 2009.",,13-24,,,375,,Mar.

Europe has set its own policy targets to achieve Good Environmental Status (GES) of marine ecosystems by implementing the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) across member states. We combined an extensive dataset across five Mediterranean ecoregions including 26 Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), their reference unprotected areas, and a no-trawl case study. Our aim was to assess if MPAs reach GES, if their effects are local or can be detected at ecoregion level or up to a Mediterranean scale, and which are the ecosystem components driving GES achievement. This was undertaken by using the analytical tool NEAT (Nested Environmental status Assessment Tool), which allows an integrated assessment of the status of marine systems. We adopted an ecosystem approach by integrating data from several ecosystem components: the seagrass Posidonia oceanica, macroalgae, sea urchins and fish. Thresholds to define the GES were set by dedicated workshops and literature review. In the Western Mediterranean, most MPAs are in good/high status, with P. oceanica and fish driving this result within MPAs. However, GES is achieved only at a local level, and the Mediterranean Sea, as a whole, results in a moderate environmental status. Macroalgal forests are overall in bad condition, confirming their status at risk. The results are significantly affected by the assumption that discrete observations over small spatial scales are representative of the total extension investigated. This calls for large-scale, dedicated assessments to realistically detect environmental status changes under different conditions. Understanding MPAs effectiveness in reaching GES is crucial to assess their role as sentinel observatories of marine systems. MPAs and trawling bans can locally contribute to the attainment of GES and to the fulfillment of the MSFD objectives. Building confidence in setting thresholds between GES and non-GES, investing in long-term monitoring, increasing the spatial extent of sampling areas, rethinking and broadening the scope of complementary tools of protection (e.g., Natura 2000 Sites), are indicated as solutions to ameliorate the status of the basin. © 2021",,,,,305,,J.

ECS, however, still remain largely affected by increasing threats leading to biodiversity loss. Here, by using emblematic case studies and expert knowledge, we review current conservation tools, comparing their application in different areas to assess their effectiveness, potential for synergies, and contradictions. Despite regional differences in their application, the existing legislative frameworks have the potential to regulate human activities and to protect marine biodiversity. However, four challenges remain to be addressed to fully achieve environmental policy goals: (1) Lack of shared vision representing a limitation in transboundary collaboration. Although all EU countries are committed to fulfil EU Directives and other binding international legislative acts, a remarkable heterogeneity exists among countries in the compliance with the common legislation on conservation and in their degree of implementation. (2) Lack of systematic procedures for the selection of protected marine sites. Regional and national approaches in designating Natura 2000 sites and nationally designated marine protected areas (MPAs) reflect varying conservation targets and importance of conservation issues in political agendas. (3) Lack of coherent ecological networks. Natura 2000 sites and other MPAs are still far from reaching the status of effective networks in all considered case studies. (4) Hotspot of conflicts with private economic interests prevailing over conservation aims. Recommendations are given to overcome the fragmented approach still characterizing the conservation and management of coastal marine environments. Holistic, integrated, ecosystem-based, cross-cutting approaches can avoid conflicts among institutions so as to provide effective and timely solutions to current and future challenges concerning the conservation and management of marine ecosystems and associated goods and services. © 2018 Fraschetti,.",,,,NOV,5,,Front.

Their design, however, often disregards both a thorough knowledge of the distribution of habitats and assemblages and the use of proper experimental evaluations of the efficacy of MPAs by comparing protected vs. unprotected zones. About 200 MPAs have been recently instituted in the Mediterranean area, but the evidence of their efficacy is scant. The MPA of Torre Guaceto (Southern Adriatic Sea, Italy) is one of the rare cases of effective protection enforcement. The reserve was instituted more than 10 years ago, a period currently considered as sufficient to show responses by organisms to protection. The MPA is divided into a C zone, the general reserve, where many activities are permitted, a B zone, the partial reserve where restrictions increase and two A zones, the integral reserve where access is prohibited. The goals of the paper were to map the distribution of benthic assemblages to assess if they were properly represented in the differently protected zones, and to test the efficacy of protection by quantifying possible differences between the assemblages in two control areas and in the two A zones, where human impact is completely excluded. The analysis of habitat and assemblage distribution within the MPA showed that the zones with total protection do not include most valuable environmental types. Most of the considered variables (i.e. cover of substratum, number of taxa, and average abundance of the most common taxa) were not significantly different in and out of the A zones, at each time of sampling. Results, however, suggested a possible effect of protection in modifying patterns of abundance of sponges under Cystoseira canopy (more abundant in the fully protected zone). In the subtidal habitat, differences were found in the structure of the whole assemblage and in the abundance of encrusting coralline red algae (more abundant outside the fully protected area). Notwithstanding the correct general methodology employed in the study, a lack of statistical power could have a role in preventing the detection of ecologically relevant effects of protection. In some instances, data pooling allowed a discrimination between cases where there was clearly no effect of protection and cases where there might be. On this basis, the optimization of this experimental design should be considered in further studies. In any case, if the goals of MPAs have not been clearly stated, efficacy of protection might prove very difficult to test even with the use of sound experimental designs. © 2004 Elsevier Ltd.

A large body of literature deals with marine reserves and their potential as conservation and management tools. In several cases, empirical evidence demonstrated that reserves can harbour greater diversity, higher abundance, and larger organisms than unprotected areas. In most cases, however, reserve design and site selection involved little scientific justification, with no direct test of most of the mechanisms assumed to work in a marine reserve. Field investigations of subtidal marine reserves are generally confounded by intrinsic ecological differences between sites investigated inside and outside reserves, by a lack of site and reserve replication, or by the absence of information about the biota before reserve establishment. This is particularly true in the Mediterranean Sea. The aim of this paper is to show that, at least in the Mediterranean basin, the effectiveness of MPAs has been rarely demonstrated because of lack of appropriate sampling designs. An MPA can be considered as a zone subjected to human impact, presumably a positive one. As a consequence, we propose the use of experimental procedures generally utilised for detecting environmental impacts. © 2002 Blackwell Verlag, Berlin.",,190-200,,SUPPL. 1,23,,Mar.

Hailed as a success globally, the rezoning of Australia's Great Barrier Reef Marine Park in 2004 was complex and controversial. Despite substantial research within the Marine park, little rigorous evaluation has been undertaken of the rezoning's biological impact - the difference increased protection has made to biodiversity relative to that expected without protection. We review available data of measures of biological impact from ‘new’ no-take zones established in the rezoning and those established under previous zoning. We found 48 studies reporting 782 measures of impact based on comparisons of biological indicators in no-take zones with fished areas. Overwhelmingly, impacts were neutral (57%) or positive (33%). Few data supported causal relationships between new no-take zones and improvements in biological indicators (48 of 159 impacts). The probability of a positive impact increased with time from establishment of no-take zones. Limited conclusions can be drawn from other data. We evaluated whether these measures of impact were robust based on analysis of six key principles of impact evaluation. Sampling was not designed to support causal inferences. Biological monitoring and evaluation designs were limited in providing evidence of the impact of protection. Improved methods that include credible counterfactual data can address limitations of current practice. We highlight ways of progressing impact evaluation techniques to support causal inferences of the impact of marine protected areas generally. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,238,,Biol.

As a result, often, protected areas are defined with bases in forest cover and terrestrial characteristics overseeing important components of connectivity of riverine landscapes, such as the connectivity between rivers, lakes, and streams. It is important to emphasize that forest protection is extremely important, but that alone cannot safeguard the protection of freshwater ecosystems. Therefore, our discussion should lead, not to the disregard of terrestrial efforts but to the complementation of existing efforts for forest protection with the addition of areas that can also protect freshwater ecosystems. Fluvial ecosystems are hierarchical and nested systems, with multidimensional connectivity including longitudinal (upstream-downstream), lateral (floodplains and lakes), temporal (seasons) and vertical (groundwaters) connections. Systematic Conservation Planning (SCP) is the most well accepted and used method for designing conservation plans based on cost-effective scenarios that include ecological and socio-economic values resulting in thematic maps of priority areas for conservation. Recently, methods to consider the connectivity of freshwater ecosystems were incorporated into spatial prioritization tools. Maps produced using spatial prioritization tools can help decision making on species management and conservation actions, such as plans for species’ impact reduction (PRIM) and action plans for threatened species (PAN). PRIM and PAN use information about species ecology to focus conservation actions onto target species. These conservation action plans must be viable not only ecologically but also economically. In this context, using SCP to guide designs of PRIM and PAN can help stakeholders to achieve better conservation actions in Brazil. Thus, the SCP can improve the conservation and management of freshwater ecosystems, through the integration of science, society and stakeholder. © 2021, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro.

This biogeographic perspective will only become more relevant as climate change amplifies these spatial and temporal dynamics, and as species begin to shift in and out of existing MPAs. The scale of climate velocities predicted for the 21st century dwarfs all but the largest MPAs currently in place, raising the possibility that in coming decades many MPAs will no longer contain the species or assemblages they were established to protect. We present a number of design elements that could improve the success of MPAs and MPA networks in light of biogeographic processes and climate change. Biogeographically informed MPA networks of the future may resemble the habitat corridors currently being considered for many terrestrial regions. © 2018, John Wiley and Sons Inc.

The use of multiple methods for quantifying illegal harvest has been widely recommended yet infrequently applied.We used a mixed-method approach to evaluate the extent, character, and motivations of illegal gillnet fishing in Lake Hovsgol National Park, Mongolia and its impact on the lake's fish populations, especially that of the endangered endemic Hovsgol grayling (Thymallus nigrescens). Surveys for derelict fishing gear indicate that gillnet fishing is widespread and increasing and that fishers generally use 3-4 cm mesh gillnet. Interviews with resident herders and park rangers suggest that many residents fish for subsistence during the spring grayling spawning migration and that some residents fish commercially year-round. Interviewed herders and rangers generally agree that fish population sizes are decreasing but are divided on the causes and solutions. Biological monitoring indicates that the gillnet mesh sizes used by fishers efficiently target Hovsgol grayling. Of the five species sampled in the monitoring program, only burbot (Lota lota) showed a significant decrease in population abundance from 2009-2013. However, grayling, burbot, and roach (Rutilus rutilus) all showed significant declines in average body size, suggesting a negative fishing impact. Data-poor stock assessment methods suggest that the fishing effort equivalent to each resident family fishing 50-m of gillnet 11-15 nights per year would be sufficient to overexploit the grayling population. Results from the derelict fishing gear survey and interviews suggest that this level of effort is not implausible. Overall, we demonstrate the ability for a mixed-method approach to effectively describe an illegal fishery and suggest that these methods be used to assess illegal fishing and its impacts in other protected areas. © 2015 Free et al.This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original author and source are credited.",,,,12,10,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,animal; Animals; biological monitoring; body size; Conservation of Natural Resources; ecosystem; Ecosystem; endangered species; Endangered Species; environmental protection; family; family study; fish; Fisheries; fishery; Fishes; fishing; interview; Mongolia; motivation; national park; night; physiology; population abundance; population density; Population Density; population size; procedures; resident; season; Seasons; spawning; spring; stock assessment,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

While the conservation and fisheries impacts of MPAs have been comparatively well-studied, impacts on other dimensions of human use have received less attention. Understanding how humans engage with MPAs and identifying traits of MPAs that promote engagement is critical to designing MPA networks that achieve multiple goals effectively, equitably and with minimal environmental impact. In this paper, we characterize human engagement in California's MPA network, the world's largest MPA network scientifically designed to function as a coherent network (124 MPAs spanning 16% of state waters and 1300 km of coastline) and identify traits associated with higher human engagement. We assemble and compare diverse indicators of human engagement that capture recreational, educational and scientific activities across California's MPAs. We find that human engagement is correlated with nearby population density and that site “charisma” can expand human engagement beyond what would be predicted based on population density alone. Charismatic MPAs tend to be located near tourist destinations, have long sandy beaches and be adjacent to state parks and associated amenities. In contrast, underutilized MPAs were often more remote and lacked both sandy beaches and parking lot access. Synthesis and applications: These results suggest that achieving MPA goals associated with human engagement can be promoted by developing land-based amenities that increase access to coastal MPAs or by locating new MPAs near existing amenities during the design phase. Alternatively, human engagement can be limited by locating MPAs in areas far from population centres, coastal amenities or sandy beaches. Furthermore, managers may want to prioritize monitoring, enforcement, education and outreach programmes in MPAs with traits that predict high human engagement. Understanding the extent to which human engagement impacts the conservation performance of MPAs is a critical next step to designing MPAs that minimize tradeoffs among potentially competing objectives.

If reserves are intended to conserve 'natural' biological communities, then reserve boundaries should follow barriers to species movement, but if cross-boundary movement of harvestable individuals associated with certain habitat is desired for fisheries purposes, then boundaries should intersect that habitat. We relate movement patterns of the reef-associated spiny lobster Jasus edwardsii (Palinuridae) to the relative positions of habitat and reserve boundaries in a 24.5 km2 marine reserve on the temperate northeast coast of New Zealand by tagging >5000 individuals and recapturing a subset over 3 yr using pots. Lobster movement patterns were sex- and size-dependent, but nearly all recaptured individuals were found on the same rocky reef on which they were tagged, indicating that lobsters were reluctant to cross the muddy sediments between reefs. Lobsters became increasingly likely to migrate from the reserve into the heavily fished adjacent coast as the proportion of their reef that was unprotected increased. Corresponding changes in average catch per unit effort (CPUE) and size of all lobsters (tagged and untagged) occurred within the protected parts of the reefs, with lobster densities on a fully protected reef being 8-fold higher than densities on the protected part of a reef that was 91% unprotected. 10.3354/meps08122. © Inter-Research 2009.",,159-167,,,388,,Mar.

Many rockfish (genus Sebastes) species were overfished in the California Current Ecosystem at the turn of the 21st century, leading to establishment of 2 large MPAs in the Southern California Bight, the Cowcod Conservation Areas (CCAs). The CCAs, alongside favorable environmental conditions, helped rebuild overfished rockfish stocks by 2019. Here we assessed the impacts of the CCAs and environment (temperature, oxygen, salinity, chlorophyll a) on rockfish diversity and assemblage structure using a 16 yr time series (1998?2013) of genetically identified rockfish larvae. Larval rockfish richness generally increased across the time series, with the greatest increases inside CCAs when temperature was low and dissolved oxygen was high. We also found a clear species assemblage shift after the implementations of the CCAs, driven largely by rockfishes targeted by fisheries. This shift was most likely initially driven by maturation of a strong 1999 year class, and sustained by protection from fishing and favorable environmental conditions. Our results suggest that the large and long-term MPAs along the southern California coast have induced increases in the diversity of larval rockfish, driven largely by the direct effects of fishing cessation on targeted species. © J.

Among the anthropic activities developed in these regions, ecotourism, especially the one associated with the observation of cetaceans (dolphin watching), has presented significant growth over the last decades. Aiming to mitigate the impacts arising from this practice, a series of measures have been adopted, including the creation of protected areas. In 1992, the Anhatomirim Environmental Protection Area (AEPA) was set in Santa Catarina, southern Brazil, with the main objective of protecting the resident population of Guiana dolphins (Sotalia guianensis). After the publication of its management plan (2013), a participatory monitoring program for boat-based tourism associated with cetacean watching was launched. The monitoring is carried out by the tourist vessels registered to operate within the AEPA, adopting a platform of opportunities approach. Those in charge must record the sighted species, the geographic coordinates, the size of the groups and the time of the sightings carried out within the AEPA and adjacent areas. This article aimed at systematizing and critically analyzing the data collected in the first five years (from 2014 to 2018) since deployment of the participatory monitoring program. During this period, the vessels made 11,136 departures and recorded 2,022 sightings of cetaceans, with predominance of Guiana dolphins (Sotalia guianensis, n=1,459) and bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus, n=546). 39% of the total Guiana dolphin sightings and 8% of the bottlenose dolphin sightings were made within the protected area limits. The results obtained corroborate previous “traditional science” research carried out in the region, but weaknesses in the implementation of participatory monitoring were evident, affecting data reliability when seen individually. Errors in coordinates were verified, as well as strong indications of errors in identifying species. There is also notable seasonality, with 61% concentration of departures and 71% of sightings in the summer months. On the other hand, participatory monitoring has brought tourism operators closer to the protected area management and has enabled a large number of records, contributing to improving knowledge about the species living in the region. © 2023 Universidade Federal do Parana.

The goliath grouper, Epinephelus itajara (Lichtenstein, 1822), is the largest Atlantic grouper. It has been the first marine fish subjected to a fishing moratorium in Brazil (since 2002). The aim of this study was to investigate basic biological aspects, particularly the diet and reproduction of this endangered species. We believe that our results, together with information already available in the literature, may be a foundation for new management and conservation strategies for this grouper in Brazil. Materials and methods. Specimens were obtained from an artisanal fish landings collaborative monitoring program in the cities of Caravelas and Alcobaca, Abrolhos Bank, eastern Brazil. Because of the fishing moratorium, we relied on sporadic incidental captures from fishermen or donation from the law enforcement agencies. Diet and reproduction of the goliath grouper was evaluated based on 34 specimens obtained between May 2005 and September 2010. Results. Body size of 32 females ranged from 27.4 to 150.0 cm total length (TL) (mean 87.4 +/- SD 34.8), while size of 2 males were 97.0 and 115.0 cm TL. Of these, 16 specimens (47%) were juveniles. Sex ratio was estimated as 1 : 16 (males to females). Two developing females were recorded, one obtained in February 2006 and another in January 2007. The length of first maturation (L-50) for females was estimated at 105.64 cm and the length where 100% of individuals are mature (L-100) at 126.0 cm TL. A total of 34 stomachs were analyzed, six of them were empty. Teleosts and decapods dominated the diet. The major food items of mangrove-associated fish were decapods Callinectes sp., while the coral reef-associated fish ingested mainly the boxfish Acanthostracion sp. The most important item for juveniles was Callinectes sp., while Acanthostracion sp. was the most important item for adults. Conclusion. We suggest that the goliath grouper moratorium in Brazil should be maintained for a relatively long time frame-more than four decades.",,01-Nov,,1,45,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000352645500001,,,,,,,Abrolhos Bank; ATLANTIC; CONSEQUENCES; CONSERVATION; DECLINES; Epinephelinae; fish conservation; fisheries management; GULF; MARINE RESERVE; ontogenetic variations; PATTERNS; POPULATIONS; REEF FISHES; TELEOSTEI; threatened fishes,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Implementation of MPAs under the Marine Life Protection Act (MLPA) Initiative in Southern California was followed by a monitoring program to establish a comprehensive baseline of the ecological conditions of several marine ecosystems at the time of MPA implementation. This baseline monitoring consortium involved several citizen science monitoring programs alongside more traditional academic monitoring programs, creating an opportunity to evaluate the potential for citizen scientists to become more involved in future long-term monitoring efforts. We investigated different citizen science models, their program goals, and contributions to MPA baseline monitoring, including their respective monitoring protocols and data quality assurance measures, in the context of the goals of the MLPA baseline monitoring program.

Moreover, the introgressive hybridization due to the occurrence in close contact with the European roe deer, in some areas of Tuscany and Calabria, threatens the genetic identity of the endemic subspecies. Therefore, the numerous risk factors for this subspecies require enabling targeted conservation strategies. In the present research we studied the diet and feeding behavior of the Italian roe deer, considering that the most representative plants of the diet could act as key indicators for the subspecies to identify and conserve its elective habitats. During all the year, the Italian roe deer preferred mainly feeding resources from woods and scrubland including, particularly in wet season, also a great proportion of forbs, whereas in its diet grasses were poorly represented. The results obtained in this study evidenced that the Italian roe deer is a browser able to exploit many plant species and to adapt its diet preferences to space-time variation of food availability. The present study was aimed to deepen the knowledge on diet and on feeding preferences of the Italian roe deer. The research was carried on in the Castelporziano Presidential Estate, a protected area of Latium coast.

However, it has become clear that in addition to including these 'structural' elements of marine systems, management strategies should incorporate a consideration of the functional aspects of the ecosystems. Biological traits analysis (BTA) has been successfully used to describe ecological functioning in marine benthic systems. BTA uses a number of biological characteristics expressed by the taxa present as indicators of key ecosystem functions. Two expert workshops were used to examine the potential for the application of BTA in the designation and management of MPAs. They concluded that BTA represented the best tool currently available for quantifying ecological functioning and agreed on 10-key ecological functions delivered by marine benthic communities. Twenty-four biological traits were also identified by the workshops as indices of these ten functions. In order to demonstrate the practical utility of the approach, BTA using these traits, was applied to a dataset covering benthos from within and around the proposed Eddystone Special Area of Conservation (SW England). The case study demonstrated that with the type of data normally available from conservation assessment type surveys, and a knowledge of the relevant biological traits, it is possible to use a consideration of ecological functioning to set boundaries for the MPA and to inform the site management objectives.

In contrast, the potential of MPAs to mitigate the impact of adverse climatic conditions has seldom been investigated. Here, we assessed the effectiveness of MPAs, quantified as increasing fish biomass, across wide geographic and environmental gradients across the Mediterranean Sea. We performed underwater visual surveys within and outside MPAs to characterize fish assemblages in 52 rocky reef sites across an extent of over 3300 km. We used the steep spatial temperature gradient across the Mediterranean as a ‘space-for-time’ substitution to infer climate-driven temporal changes. We found that, as expected, Mediterranean MPAs increased fish biomass. At the same time, higher seawater temperatures are associated with decreased fish biomass, changes in species composition, and shifts towards more thermophilic species. Importantly, we found that the rate of decrease in fish biomass with temperature was similar between protected and fished sites. Taken together, these results suggest that the capacity of MPAs to harbour higher fish biomass, compared to surrounding areas, is maintained across a broad temperature range. At the same time, MPAs will not be able to offset larger-scale biotic alterations associated with climate change. Policy implications. Our results suggest that sustained warming will likely reduce fish biomass in the Mediterranean Sea and shift community structure, requiring more conservative targets for fishery regulations. At the same time, protection from fishing will remain an important management tool even with future high-water temperatures, and MPAs are expected to continue to provide local-scale benefits to conservation and fisheries. © 2023 The Authors.

In 2003, the Palau Protected Areas Network (PAN) was created to conserve Palau's unique biodiversity and culture, and is the country's mechanism for achieving the goals of the Micronesia Challenge (MC), an initiative to conserve ?30% of near-shore marine resources within the region by 2020. The PAN comprises a network of numerous MPAs within Palau that vary in age, size, level of management, and habitat, which provide an excellent opportunity to test hypotheses concerning MPA design and function using multiple discreet sampling units. Our sampling design provided a robust space for time comparison to evaluate the relative influence of potential drivers of MPA efficacy. Our results showed that no-take MPAs had, on average, nearly twice the biomass of resource fishes (i.e. those important commercially, culturally, or for subsistence) compared to nearby unprotected areas. Biomass of non-resource fishes showed no differences between no-take areas and areas open to fishing. The most striking difference between notake MPAs and unprotected areas was the more than 5-fold greater biomass of piscivorous fishes in the MPAs compared to fished areas. The most important determinates of no-take MPA success in conserving resource fish biomass were MPA size and years of protection. Habitat and distance from shore had little effect on resource fish biomass. The extensive network of MPAs in Palau likely provides important conservation and tourism benefits to the Republic, and may also provide fisheries benefits by protecting spawning aggregation sites, and potentially through adult spillover. © 2017 Friedlander et al.

Today there exists in Hawai'i a variety of spatial marine management strategies along a range of scales, with varying degrees of effectiveness. State-managed no-take areas make up less than 0.4% of nearshore waters, resulting in limited ecological and social benefits. There is increasing interest among communities and coastal stakeholders in integrating aspects of customary Hawaiian knowledge into contemporary co-management. A network of no-take reserves for aquarium fish on Hawai'i Island is a stakeholder-driven, adaptive management strategy that has been successful in achieving ecological objectives and economic benefits. A network of large-scale no-take areas for deepwater (100-400. m) bottomfishes suffered from a lack of adequate data during their initiation; however, better technology, more ecological data, and stakeholder input have resulted in improvements and the ecological benefits are becoming clear. Finally, the Papah?naumoku?kea Marine National Monument (PMNM) is currently the single largest conservation area in the United States, and one of the largest in the world. It is considered an unqualified success and is managed under a new model of collaborative governance. These case studies allow an examination of the effects of scale on spatial marine management in Hawai'i and beyond that illustrate the advantages and shortcomings of different management strategies. Ultimately a marine spatial planning framework should be applied that incorporates existing marine managed areas to create a holistic, regional, multi-use zoning plan engaging stakeholders at all levels in order to maximize resilience of ecosystems and communities. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,153-203,,,69,,,,,,,,Academic Press,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Adv.

Large-scale marine protected areas (LSMPAs, >100 000 km2) are a new concept in global marine conservation that offer real hope in achieving global conservation targets. Many of the existing LSMPAs are remote islands in the Pacific that share common natural history, threats, culture, as well as scientific and management needs. As a result of their common ancestry, many Pacific cultures have a long history of collaboration, including sharing resources, information and expertise to ensure the long-term sustainability of their resources. Management, governance and research capacity limitations are magnified in LSMPAs, therefore highlighting the need to return to these prior forms of collaboration to achieve conservation objectives. Several LSMPAs in the Pacific have collaborated to achieve their management and scientific goals, including documented collaborations among the Papah?naumoku?kea Marine National Monument, the Phoenix Islands Protected Area, the Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument, the Marianas Trench Marine National Monument, the Motu Motiru Hiva Marine Park, the Natural Park of the Coral Sea, and the Cook Islands Marine Park. Collaborations among LSMPAs in the Pacific include bilateral agreements, learning exchanges, as well as research, monitoring and enforcement activities. By working together, Pacific LSMPAs have been able to overcome some of the management and scientific challenges associated with conserving vast areas of the oceans.

Many countries, including Canada, have committed to protecting at least 10% of their marine areas under the Convention on Biological Diversity's Aichi Target 11, which includes connectivity as a key aspect. Connectivity, the movement of individuals among habitats, can enhance population stability and resilience within and among MPAs. However, little is known about regional spatial patterns of marine ecological connectivity, particularly adult movement. We developed a method to assess and design MPA networks that maximize inferred connectivity within habitat types for adult movement when ecological data are limited. We used the Northern Shelf Bioregion in British Columbia, Canada, to explore two different approaches: (1) evaluating sites important for inferred regional connectivity (termed hotspots) and (2) assessing MPA network configurations based on their overlap with connectivity hotspots and interconnectedness between MPAs. To assess inferred connectivity via adult movement, we used two different threshold distances (15 and 50 km) to capture moderate home ranges, which are most appropriate to consider in MPA design. We applied graph theory to assess inferred connectivity within 16 habitat and depth categories (proxies for distinct ecological communities), and used novel multiplex network methodologies to perform an aggregated assessment of inferred connectivity. We evaluated inferred regional connectivity hotspots based on betweenness and eigenvector centrality metrics, finding that the existing MPA network overlapped a moderate proportion of these regional hotspots and identified key areas to be considered as candidate MPAs. Network density among existing MPAs was low within the individual habitat networks, as well as the multiplex. This work informs an ongoing MPA planning process, and approaches for incorporating connectivity into MPA design when data are limited, with lessons for other contexts. © 2019 The Authors.

Connectivity is a fundamental aspect of MPA design and evaluation, but regional patterns of marine ecological connectivity are often not well understood, nor how connectivity patterns may be affected by climate change. Our objective was to assess how ecological connectivity between MPAs may shift with projected ocean temperature changes in the Northern Shelf Bioregion in British Columbia, Canada, and demonstrate a potential approach that can be used in other systems. We conducted a case study with Dungeness Crab (Metacarcinus magister) and Shortspine Thornyhead (Sebastolobus alascanus) using benthic temperature outputs from a regional ocean model for hindcast (1981–2010) and future (2041–2070) periods coupled with species’ environmental preference information. We evaluated MPA exposure to projected temperature changes and suitability for the adult stage of the focal species. Using existing least-cost and circuit theory-based tools more often applied in terrestrial systems, we identified potential linkages between MPAs via adult movement, simulating both optimal and probabilistic paths, then compared MPA interconnectedness between time periods. There was a marked decrease in MPA suitability and interconnectedness for Shortspine Thornyhead under projected future climates, while there was a marked increase in MPA suitability for Dungeness Crab and minor increase in MPA interconnectedness. Given the contrasting results in connectivity changes when examining just two species, this study highlights the challenge of building climate resilience in MPA network designs with multispecies objectives. © 2021",,,,,211,,Ocean Coast.

Recent management changes within the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (GBRMP) fortuitously created a unique scenario by which to quantify the effects of spearfishing on fish populations. As such, we employed underwater visual surveys and a before-after-control-impact experimental design to investigate the effects of spearfishing on the density and size structure of target and non-target fishes in a multi-use conservation park zone (CPZ) within the GBRMP. Three years after spearfishing was first allowed in the CPZ, there was a 54% reduction in density and a 27% reduction in mean size of coral trout (Plectropomus spp.), the primary target species. These changes were attributed to spearfishing because benthic habitat characteristics and the density of non-target fishes were stable through time, and the density and mean size of coral trout in a nearby control zone (where spearfishing was prohibited) remained unchanged. We conclude that spearfishing, like other forms of fishing, can have rapid and substantial negative effects on target fish populations. Careful management of spearfishing is therefore needed to ensure that conservation obligations are achieved and that fishery resources are harvested sustainably. This is particularly important both for the GBRMP, due to its extraordinarily high conservation value and world heritage status, and for tropical island nations where people depend on spearfishing for food and income. To minimize the effects of spearfishing on target species and to enhance protection of functionally important fishes (herbivores), we recommend that fishery managers adjust output controls such as size- and catch-limits, rather than prohibit spearfishing altogether. This will preserve the cultural and social importance of spearfishing in coastal communities where it is practised. © 2012 Frisch et al.",,,,12,7,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Animals; Anthozoa; article; benthic fauna; BIOMASS; catch selectivity; Conservation of Natural Resources; conservation park zone; controlled study; coral reef; CORAL-REEFS; Ecology; Ecosystem; environmental impact assessment; environmental protection; Female; Fisheries; FISHERIES; fishery management; Fishes; fishing; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; habitat quality; harvest; Male; MANAGEMENT; marine environment; nonhuman; Pisces; Plectropomus; population density; population size; population structure; Salmonidae; spearsfishing; TAKE MARINE RESERVES; trout; Trout,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In recent decades, an increasing focus on ‘holistic’ policy development is evident, compared with earlier ‘piecemeal’ sectoral approaches. Important marine legislative tools being used in the United Kingdom, and internationally, include the designation of marine protected areas and the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) with its aim of meeting ‘Good Environmental Status’ (GES) for European seas by 2020. There is growing evidence of climate change impacts on marine biodiversity, which may compromise the effectiveness of any legislation intended to promote sustainable marine resource management. A review of key marine biodiversity legislation relevant to the UK shows climate change was not considered in the drafting of much early legislation. Despite the huge increase in knowledge of climate change impacts in recent decades, legislation is still limited in how it takes these impacts into account. There is scope, however, to account for climate change in implementing much of the legislation through (a) existing references to environmental variability; (b) review cycles; and (c) secondary legislation and complementary policy development. For legislation relating to marine protected areas (e.g. the EC Habitats and Birds Directives), climate change has generally not been considered in the site-designation process, or for ongoing management, with the exception of the Marine (Scotland) Act. Given that changing environmental conditions (e.g. rising temperatures and ocean acidification) directly affect the habitats and species that sites are designated for, how this legislation is used to protect marine biodiversity in a changing climate requires further consideration. Accounting for climate change impacts on marine biodiversity in the development and implementation of legislation is vital to enable timely, adaptive management responses. Marine modelling can play an important role in informing management decisions. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. © 2016 The Authors.

Over time their focus has evolved from a prevalence of basically aesthetic criteria (spectacular landscapes with picturesque features such as high mountains, thickly wooded forests or rugged coastlines) to a more global vision that includes the conservation of the diversity of habitats present in any given territory. In the case of Europe this point of view crystallised in the setting up of the Natura 2000 Network, with the ambitious aim of creating a continent-wide network of Protected Natural Areas that will include examples of all the different kinds of habitat to be found in the Old World. Its implementation in Spain means extending protected area status to approximately 28% of the territory, a significant proportion. However, for this protection to be effective it needs to go beyond a mere legal declaration and deploy a proper framework to ensure the active management not only of each individual area but also of the Network as a whole. Although the Natura 2000 Network came into being some years ago, a large proportion of the Natura 2000 Sites in Spain currently lack any form of planning and management, making them potentially vulnerable to numerous threats and impacts that may eventually have a serious effect on them. The purpose of this article is thus to reveal the lack of protection afforded to these spaces, citing specific examples, and to propose corrective measures to improve the current situation..

This is particularly important for regions of known importance for marine turtles and where widespread habitat degradation is taking place. The waters surrounding Bimini, Bahamas, provide important foraging areas for threatened juvenile green turtles (Chelonia mydas) however, these habitats are being severely degraded by coastal development. To inform managers on the design of planned future no-take marine protected areas (MPA) in Bimini, we used a spatial planning approach and incorporated diverse methodologies (e.g., visual surveys, capture events, passive acoustic telemetry) to identify areas of high use by juvenile green turtles. We also assessed forage items to understand habitat use by green turtles. This information was compared with how various stakeholders use the local waters to identify priority areas for protection within Bimini to maximize conservation of green turtles, while minimizing impact to society, and to meet the conservation target previously stipulated by government officials. Two regions within Bimini (South Flats in south Bimini and Bonefish Hole on the north Island) were identified as important areas for protection and suggestions are made on their considerations for MPA implementation. © 2018, Springer Nature B.V.",,197-211,,1,28,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Netherlands,,,,Albulidae; Bahamas; Bimini; Chelonia mydas; Cheloniidae; coastal development; conservation planning; Conservation planning; conservation status; foraging behavior; habitat use; Habitat use; marine park; mark-recapture method; Mark-recapture/survey; Marxan; Sea turtles; seagrass; Seagrass; site selection; spatial distribution; spatial planning; stakeholder; survey method; Telemetry/biologging; Testudines; turtle,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Climate also plays an important role in the distribution of alien species. Aims: We evaluate the relationship between alien species density and both climatic and socio-economic factors at the scale of provinces located in a latitudinal-bioclimatic gradient in Chile. Methods: We used generalised linear models with backward selection to evaluate the relative importance of each parameter (human population, gross domestic product, length of traffic routes, crop cover, abandoned crop cover, artificial plantations, protected areas, annual rainfall and temperature) on species density. We compared the average species density among climate types. Results: Alien density was higher for provinces located in the most populated areas with Mediterranean and temperate oceanic climates (south-central Chile) and decreased for less populated provinces in the north and the southernmost parts (desert and sub-Antarctic wetlands). Human population, length of traffic routes and annual rainfall significantly explained the variation in alien species density in Chile. Conclusions: Although human population still increases, the results can be used especially in high priority conservation areas where traffic routes and human settlements can be objectively reduced or managed, to reduce the potential increase in the number of alien species. © 2014 Botanical Society of Scotland and Taylor & Francis.",,371-377,,3,8,,Plant Ecol.

In fact, the very capacity of an ecosystem to produce a valued good or service is often reduced because conventional markets value only certain goods and services, rather than the productive capacity. Coastal socio-ecosystems are particularly susceptible to these market failures due to the lack of clear property rights, strong dependence on resource extraction, and other factors. Conservation strategies aimed at protecting unvalued coastal ecosystem services through regulation or spatial management (e.g. Marine Protected Areas) can be effective but often result in lost revenue and adverse social impacts, which, in turn, create conflict and opposition. Here, we describe 'ecomarkets' - markets and financial tools - that could, under the right conditions, generate value for broad portfolios of coastal ecosystem services while maintaining ecosystem structure and function by addressing the unique problems of the coastal zone, including the lack of clear management and exclusion rights. Just as coastal tenure and catch-share systems generate meaningful conservation and economic outcomes, it is possible to imagine other market mechanisms that do the same with respect to a variety of other coastal ecosystem goods and services. Rather than solely relying on extracting goods, these approaches could allow communities to diversify ecosystem uses and focus on long-term stewardship and conservation, while meeting development, food security, and human welfare goals. The creation of ecomarkets will be difficult in many cases, because rights and responsibilities must be devolved, new social contracts will be required, accountability systems must be created and enforced, and long-term patterns of behaviour must change. We argue that efforts to overcome these obstacles are justified, because these deep changes will strongly complement policies and tools such as Marine Protected Areas, coastal spatial management, and regulation, thereby helping to bring coastal conservation to scale. © 2012 Cambridge Philosophical Society.",,273-286,,2,88,,Biol.

Frequently natural resources are the ultimate target of management actions, but management programs work through the proximate step of regulating human behavior towards those resources. For example, a marine reserve is considered a conservation success when the abundance and diversity of organisms increase within reserve boundaries, all relative to existing trends that would have affected ecological communities in the absence of a reserve. Biological monitoring can assesses whether reserve management achieves these goals. However, when monitoring data are inconclusive or do not match expectations, managers face uncertainty in understanding why particular biological patterns occurred, whether a reserve is a biologically appropriate management strategy for the system, and what steps to take moving forward. Monitoring human behavior can provide information that may alleviate some uncertainty and help explain observed biological patterns. In this study we illustrate the utility of complimenting biological monitoring data with monitoring of human behavior. We used a before-after control-impact analysis to test for effects of a no-take reserve in the Gulf of California, Mexico on the density and biomass of seven fished species. We failed to detect a positive biological effect of the reserve, and found the density of five monitored species had declined. These results indicated that the reserve was not succeeding, but provided no insight into why. Evaluation of recreational angler use of the reserve provided a possible explanation: first, the frequency of angler visits to the study area was increasing over time. Second, the reserve reduced the propensity of anglers to visit the reserve, but not by enough to offset the overall increasing visitation trend. Biological and human use monitoring results in tandem indicated that a reserve could potentially be an effective conservation tool for the system, and allowed us to suggest modifications that could help the reserve succeed. Our work illustrates the necessity of monitoring human use changes alongside biological responses to a reserve for a holistic portrait of reserve functioning, providing a concrete example of the importance of human behavioral aspects of marine reserve success. © 2017",,100-109,,,162,,Ocean Coast.

We investigated changes in recreational fishing site selection in response to the 2005 announcement of enforcement in a marine reserve in the Gulf of California, Mexico. We used a novel data set of daily self-reported boating destinations from emergency rescue logbooks for a recreational angling community from 2000 to 2008. Because the reserve system has no experimental control, we modeled the data two ways to test for robustness to model specification. We tested for changes in human fishing behavior with regression and fit a fleetlevel discrete choice model to project a counterfactual scenario. The counterfactual is the statistically constructed ex post expectation of the human behavior we would have observed if the reserve never existed. We included month and year fixed effects in our models to account for seasonal and interannual fluctuations in fishing behavior and catch rates. We detected a decrease in reserve use compared to the counterfactual, indicating that the reserve rapidly experienced a decrease in visitation. However, the reserve's effect to reduce trips diminished with time. These results indicate that the reserve is unlikely to meet its ecological goals without institutional changes that enhance compliance. This illustrates the value of human use data to understanding the processes underlying marine reserve function. We suggest that managers should consider human use with the same frequency, rigor, and tools as they do fishery stocks. Marine reserves directly affect people, and understanding human behavioral responses to marine reserves is an important step in marine reserve management. © 2012 by the Ecological Society of America.",,597-605,,2,22,,Ecol.

Regarding spiders, all species listed in CITES are tarantulas. They are included in Appendix II, meaning that they are species that are not necessarily now threatened with extinction but that they may become so unless trade is closely controlled. Many tarantulas are legally and illegally traded in the pet market and they are one of the most traded invertebrate groups. Originally, the CITES list published in 1995 included all the current species of the genus Brachypelma Simon, 1891 plus Aphonopelma pallidum (F. O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1897) and the so-called Aphonopelma albiceps (Pocock, 1903). After that, some taxonomic changes were done, as well as descriptions of new species in the genus Brachypelma. The objective of this paper is to assess the 21 taxonomically valid spider species listed on CITES according to the IUCN criteria, study the general patterns and trends and advise on possible future conservation actions critical for the survival of endangered species. New information Amongst all 21 species assessed, 16 had sufficient data on their distribution, ecology and threats to properly understand their current status and suggest possible conservation measures. A decline in the area of occupancy (AOO) and extent of occurrence (EOO) was inferred to almost all species, caused mostly by human activities (urbanisation, roads, agricultural and touristic activities), which often lead to the complete loss of subpopulations across their range. Hurricanes and frequent rising water, which are increasing in frequency due to climate change, can cause decline in habitat quality and consequent change in EOO and AOO of some species and should also be considered when planning conservation actions. Severe fragmentation was detected in 13 species and is therefore one of the most relevant threats to the most endangered Brachypelma species and should be made a priority aspect to deal with when proposing conservation actions for the group. Regarding the loss of individuals in wild populations, the main cause seems to be the overharvesting to meet the illegal trade. The most important conservation actions identified across species include preserving their natural habitat through protected areas, establishing management plans for both the species and their habitats and undertaking systematic monitoring to provide information about population recovery and species re-introduction programmes. In general, we propose to prioritise and support research on the population trends and distribution, as well as on the impact of land use and habitat degradation. Special attention regarding conservation actions and research plans has to be given to the central Pacific coastal area of Mexico, particularly around Guerrero State where five species of Brachypelma occur. Critically, for some of the most endangered species, such as B. baumgarteni and B. hamorii, there is no official protected area in their range of occurrence. It would therefore be highly recommended to establish at least one conservation unit which focuses on protecting each of these species in situ. In some cases, basic taxonomic research is needed before development of any appropriate conservation action can be proposed. © Fukushima C et al.",,e39342,,,7,,Biodivers.

The flora and fauna have many rare and local species, in communities that are unique to the unusual, vegetated, shingle habitat. The natural features of the system suffer from unsympathetic management as an integral part of regional coastal protection. Wide-ranging military uses have also degraded some areas. Development, gravel extraction and public pressure have damaged others. Yet the Orford Shingles form an internationally important Site of Special Scientific Interest, managed, in parts, by conservation bodies. This study examines aspects of the history and ecology of the area, in the context of these conflicting uses. In particular, it describes the natural processes of plant colonisation and succession on the beaches and illustrates how they are modified by man's activities. It shows how many such activities have been unnecessarily damaging, for example, when different government departments have conflicting management objectives. It concludes that a co-ordinated approach to coastline management can help achieve development and management objectives with minimum environmental impacts, reduced costs, maximum life expectancy for features under protection and improved safety to man and environment. © 1988.",,95-114,,2,46,,Biol.

Their use to date has highlighted conditions under which no-take marine protected areas (MPAs) may help us to achieve the goals of ecosystem-based management by reducing pressures, and where they might fail to achieve desired goals. For example, static reserve designs are unlikely to achieve desired objectives when applied to mobile species or when compromised by climate-related ecosystem restructuring and range shifts. Modelling tools allow planners to explore a range of options, such as basing MPAs on the presence of dynamic oceanic features, and to evaluate the potential future impacts of alternative interventions compared with ‘noaction’ counterfactuals, under a range of environmental and development scenarios. The modelling environment allows the analyst to test if indicators and management strategies are robust to uncertainties in how the ecosystem (and the broader human-ecosystem combination) operates, including the direct and indirect ecological effects of protection. Moreover, modelling results can be presented at multiple spatial and temporal scales, and relative to ecological, economic and social objectives. This helps to reveal potential ‘surprises’, such as regime shifts, trophic cascades and bottlenecks in human responses. Using illustrative examples, this paper briefly covers the history of the use of simulation models for evaluating MPA options, and discusses their utility and limitations for informing protected area management in the marine realm. © 2015 The Author(s) Published by the Royal Society.

For the past 17 years, we have designed, tested, and implemented a community-based monitoring model in three key marine ecosystems in Mexico: the kelp forests of Pacific Baja California, the rocky reefs of the Gulf of California, and the coral reefs of the Mesoamerican Reef System. This model is intended to engage local fishers in data collection by fulfilling two principal objectives: (1) to achieve science-based conservation and management decisions and (2) to improve livelihoods through access to knowledge and temporary employment. To achieve these goals, over 400 artisanal fishers and community members have participated in a nationwide marine reserve program. Of these, 222 fishers, including 30 women, have been trained to conduct an underwater visual census using SCUBA gear, and, to date, over 12,000 transects have been completed. Independent scientists periodically evaluate the training process and standards, and the data contribute to international monitoring efforts. This successful model is now being adopted by both civil society and government for use in different parts of Mexico and neighbouring countries.

Recently, ecotourism has flourished and attracts ecotourists who visit the ecological and cultural resources of the rural landscape, country parks and marine parks. Yan Chau Tong, also known as 'Double Haven', is remote from the urban centre, which helps preserve its natural flavour and cultural heritages such as Hakka walled villages. It is noted as an important site for developing ecotourist activities. A symbiosis of humans and nature cannot be achieved without a sound planning and zoning scheme. This paper investigates the use of IKONOS imagery and a geographic information system for rational planning of ecotourist activities and conservation measures. Through image classification of IKONOS and integrated with ecological data, essential habitats can be mapped and a spatial database is established. Suitable sites for recreational activities (including camping, heritage visiting, hiking and snorkelling) and important ecological habitats can both be identified using multiple criteria evaluation techniques. The use of a multiple objective land allocation model helps resolve conflict between recreation and conservation. Sites are generally identified as (a) those where conservation or recreation should receive the highest priority; (b) those that can be treated as additional recreation or conservation sites; and (c) conflict areas that can serve both purposes. The result can assist in planning land resources for ecotourism to satisfy both objectives and attain sustainability in the area.",,87-105,,2,22,,Geocarto Int.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Asia; China; cultural heritage; database; Database systems; ecotourism; Ecotourism planning; Eurasia; Far East; Geographic information systems; GIS; Hong Kong; IKONOS; image classification; Image classification; metropolitan area; Multiple criteria evaluation; remote sensing; rural landscape; Satellite imagery; Strategic planning; sustainability; urban planning; Urban planning,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Currently, the extensive use of antibiotics is the primary curative tool used to minimize the impact of the disease. Vaccination is a prophylactic measure that has been shown to reduce antibiotic use in the aquaculture sector substantially. However, no commercially licensed vaccine against Streptococcus agalactiae 1a is currently available. This study aimed to investigate, through molecular and immunological methods, if Streptococcus agalactiae 1a isolates collected from North America (NAM), Central America (CAM), and Southeast Asia (SEA) were similarly suitable for the development of a potentially effective vaccine to serve the global tilapia farming industry. Our comparative data showed that the Streptococcus agalactiae 1a isolates from NAM, CAM and SEA had similar biochemical profiles, and genetic multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) analysis showed that the NAM and CAM isolates belonged to sequence type 7 (ST-7) and clonal complex 1, while isolates from SEA grouped into three sequence types (ST-1650, ST-500, and ST-7) and two distinct clonal complexes (CC1 and CC12). Isolates from NAM, CAM, and SEA displayed similar antigenic profiles determined by western blotting with polyclonal rabbit antisera, which was supported by in vivo cross-protection studies, showing that fish immunized with vaccines based on SEA and CAM isolates with different genetic MLST profiles were highly protected against cross-challenge using the same bacterial strains for challenge. Overall, the data obtained from our investigations provide strong indications that Streptococcus agalactiae 1a distributed in NAM, CAM, and SEA are serologically uniform pathogens, and vaccines based on isolates of Streptococcus agalactiae 1a from these regions may be suited for vaccination of tilapia worldwide. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,154,,Fish Shellfish Immunol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Academic Press,,,,"amoxicillin; animal; Animals; antibiotic agent; antibiotic sensitivity; Antibiotics; ANTIBIOTICS; antigenicity; aquaculture; Aquaculture; Article; Asia, Southeastern; bacterial antigen; bacterial strain; bacterial virulence; bacterium isolate; Central America; chloramphenicol; cichlid; Cichlids; controlled study; cotrimoxazole; cross protection; Cross-protection; CULTURED TILAPIA; drug efficacy; erythromycin; FISH; fish disease; Fish Diseases; housekeeping gene; immunization; immunology; Leporidae; microbiology; minimum inhibitory concentration; MLST; mortality; MORTALITY; moxifloxacin; multilocus sequence typing; Multilocus Sequence Typing; nonhuman; North America; nucleotide sequence; Oreochromis niloticus; OUTBREAKS; phylogeny; polyclonal antibody; RED TILAPIA; SEROTYPE; Southeast asia; Southeast Asia; Streptococcal Infections; Streptococcal Vaccines; Streptococcus agalactiae; Streptococcus agalactiae 1a; Streptococcus infection; Streptococcus vaccine; survival; tetracycline; THAILAND; Tilapia; tricaine; vaccination; Vaccination; vaccine; vaccine production; VACCINES; veterinary medicine; VIRULENT; Western blotting",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The aim of the study is to analyze the Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) changes and associated Ecosystem Services (ESs) of a protected wetland area in the Po river delta (Northern Italy). A combination of methodologies which take into account both the assessment of socio-economic benefits (approach of ESs) and the monitoring of ecosystems attributes (LULC change analysis using transition matrices TMs) were used by comparing the changes observed during two periods (1954–1976 and 1976–2008) described by different environmental protection governance. The period 1954–1976 is described by extensive land reclamations while the period 1976–2008 by significant efforts for applying environmental protection measures. The results highlighted an extensive loss of vegetated wetlands due to direct human interventions (croplands and urban areas expansion) during the first period. The direct human intervention was significantly reduced during the second period. However, vegetated wetlands losses did not follow an analogous reduction probably due to indirect human interventions and natural factors. TMs identified the exact LULC conversions while the ESs approach highlighted the significant economic impact of vegetated wetlands’ losses. Waste treatment was the most important ES of the specific system providing approximately 70 % of the estimated natural capital value.

In this sense, Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES) have been conceived as instruments to internalize costs of environmental management and establish a consequential link between ES users and providers. Thus, while there is a current pressingly need for genuine PES mechanisms, in very rare cases it has been possible to satisfy this requirement. This paves the way for the study of alternative methods, such as PES-like schemes, which may be already in practice in PAs. In order to support and discuss the feasibility of this approach, we present four successful PES-like schemes currently working in the Po River delta Park of the Emilia-Romagna region (Northern Italy). They involve traditional activities, as hunting, fishing, mushroom and truffle (M&T) picking and cultural services, coherent with the UNESCO Man and Biosphere declaration. With the aim of using the peculiar case of the Po Delta Park as a study model, we studied services with direct market value that cover a variety of strategy cases and positive side effects typically observed in genuine PES schemes. The Park authority is a crucial actor with different roles: i) regulator/intermediator in the context of a “command” strategy (for hunting and M&T) and in a public–private partnership (for cultural services) and ii) provider in a trade context (for fishing). Although not originally conceived under the vision of an ES approach, these practices, developed as endogenous processes, were effective in supporting conservation and ES provision. While not accounting for regulating services, PES-like schemes constitute practical evidence of broad interest concerning the role of existing, yet overlooked, mechanisms involving important ES, which could be reframed within the terminology of PES to strengthen their functioning and strategic value. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,60,,Ecosyst.

For instance, the efficiency of protected areas in sustaining locally endangered populations and ecosystems depends on reserve network connectivity. The population genetics theory offers a powerful framework for estimating dispersal distances and migration rates from molecular data. In the marine realm, however, decades of molecular studies have met limited success in inferring genetic connectivity, due to the frequent lack of spatial genetic structure in species exhibiting high fecundity and dispersal capabilities. This is especially true within biogeographic regions bounded by well-known hotspots of genetic differentiation. Here, we provide an overview of the current methods for estimating genetic connectivity using molecular markers and propose several directions for improving existing approaches using large population genomic datasets. We highlight several issues that limit the effectiveness of methods based on neutral markers when there is virtually no genetic differentiation among samples. We then focus on alternative methods based on markers influenced by selection. Although some of these methodologies are still underexplored, our aim was to stimulate new research to test how broadly they are applicable to nonmodel marine species. We argue that the increased ability to apply the concepts of cline analyses will improve dispersal inferences across physical and ecological barriers that reduce connectivity locally. We finally present how neutral markers hitchhiking with selected loci can also provide information about connectivity patterns within apparently well-mixed biogeographic regions. We contend that one of the most promising applications of population genomics is the use of outlier loci to delineate relevant conservation units and related eco-geographic features across which connectivity can be measured. © 2015 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,769-786,,8,8,,Evol.

Sea turtle confiscations that happen out at sea can give a general area that poachers are targeting, but it can be difficult to determine the impact on specific nesting rookeries. Previous studies circumvented this difficulty by using genetic markers to identify nesting rookery origins of confiscated green turtles. Aims: To determine the impact on nesting rookeries from the illegal harvesting of green sea turtles by Hainan fishermen and describe the genetic diversity of the Paracel Islands' green sea turtle population. Methods: In the present study, we sequenced 384 bp of mitochondrial DNA control region from 85 illegally traded green sea turtles rescued on Hainan Island, China, to investigate their population of origin. For reference-source data, we used previously published mtDNA haplotype data from rookeries from Australasian waters and mtDNA haplotype data from 16 newly collected samples from the Paracel Islands in the South China Sea, a previously unsampled area. Key results: Ten and four mtDNA haplotypes, all being reported before, were detected from the Hainan confiscation and Paracel Islands rookery respectively. However, CmP19, an infrequent haplotype that has been found only in 10 green sea turtles previously, made up ?45% of our rescued samples and ?62% of the Paracel Islands sample, suggesting a potential association between CmP19 and the Paracel Island rookery. Haplotype diversity of the rescued green sea turtles was relatively high (h = 0.7143 ± 0.04), whereas nucleotide diversity was relatively low (? = 0.0031 ± 0.00), compared with other rookeries. Mixed-stock analysis suggested that the rookeries in the Paracel Islands (?57%) and the Sulu Sea (?29%) are experiencing the greatest impact from illegal harvesting by fishermen from Hainan and neighbouring countries. Conclusions: The Paracel Islands population contains a unique genetic makeup compared with other studied rookeries, particularly the high frequency of the previously rare CmP19 haplotype. The current harvesting of green sea turtles by Hainan fishermen affects not only protected local populations (Paracel Islands), but also distant populations (Sulu Sea) in protected international waters. Implications: Establishment of a large-scale Sea Turtle Nature Reserve in the South China Sea, including a special law enforcement team to monitor this National Marine Park, needs to be top priority to help curb illegal harvesting. The Paracel Islands represents a newly defined population, and conservation measures need to be taken immediately to preserve this distinct population.  © 2021 CSIRO.",,55-63,,1,48,,Wildl.

These benefits, however, mean little to most marine species, because individual protected areas typically are small. To meet the larger-scale conservation challenges facing ocean ecosystems, several nations are expanding the benefits of individual protected areas by building networks of protected areas. Doing so successfully requires a detailed understanding of the ecological and physical characteristics of ocean ecosystems and the responses of humans to spatial closures. There has been enormous scientific interest in these topics, and frameworks for the design of MPA networks for meeting conservation and fishery management goals are emerging. Persistent in the literature is the perception of an inherent tradeoff between achieving conservation and fishery goals. Through a synthetic analysis across these conservation and bioeconomic studies, we construct guidelines for MPA network design that reduce or eliminate this tradeoff. We present size, spacing, location, and configuration guidelines for designing networks that simultaneously can enhance biological conservation and reduce fishery costs or even increase fishery yields and profits. Indeed, in some settings, a well-designed MPA network is critical to the optimal harvest strategy. When reserves benefit fisheries, the optimal area in reserves is moderately large (mode ?30%). Assessing network design principals is limited currently by the absence of empirical data from large-scale networks. Emerging networks will soon rectify this constraint.",,18286-18293,,43,107,,Proc.

Accelerating beach recovery by plowing the intertidal bar: A field experiment along the northern Spanish coast. Journal of Coastal Research, 35(5), 973-984. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. Subaerial beach width plays a vital role when it comes to protecting coastal settlements and communities from storms. In many beaches the accretionary sequence is often characterized by the onshore migration of one or several intertidal bars that can eventually weld to the shore and contribute to the increase of the dry (subaerial) beach surface. An innovative experiment was carried out in summer 2015 to accelerate the onshore movement of the intertidal bar at Laida beach, Basque Country, northern Spain, by plowing it mechanically. A control zone where the bar could evolve naturally and a test zone where the plowing was performed were both defined. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of plowing on intertidal bar migration by analyzing field data collected during the experiment. Hydrodynamic data were gathered during a 3-day field campaign. Additionally, six cross-shore transects were defined, and their topographic data were taken every 15 days. Furthermore, a video imaging system allowed following and recording the planform evolution of the beach. Analyzing each profile's topographic data, it was observed that the intertidal bar in the plowed zone moved farther onshore than the intertidal bar in the control zone, suggesting that the plowing accelerated the onshore migration of the bar. Sediment transport was calculated by feeding a sediment transport formula with the hydrodynamic measurements taken, and it was concluded that the natural onshore migration of the bar is driven by onshore transport gradients related to wave asymmetry and skewness. It is suggested that the plowing caused an increase of onshore sediment transport onto the intertidal bar. However, further study that includes other field experiments, physical modeling, or both is required to identify the processes involved. © Coastal Education and Research Foundation, Inc. 2019.",,973-984,,5,35,,J.

As the 2020 deadline is approaching, countries assess their progress. Target 11 (ABT11) calls for the protection of at least 10% of coastal and marine areas, while encouraging to focus on areas with particularly important habitats, notably for coral reefs. This target indirectly poses the question of the definition of habitats and their level of representation in Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). We hypothesized that success or failure in achieving the targets could depend on how habitats are defined and considered. To address this issue, the current level of protection with respect to ABT11 is quantified for a hierarchical inventory of coral reef habitats in New Caledonia, a country with complex governance and diverse coral reefs. At the country scale, ABT11 is met with respect to broadly-defined coral reefs due to the presence of large MPAs. However, reserves are too spatially limited to comply with ABT11 at the provincial scale. The results appear dependent upon the hierarchical level of precision used to define habitats. While reefs as a whole meet Target 11, specific habitats, defined at a more detailed description levels, have varying levels of protection; and some do not meet ABT11. The results highlight that assessments of the achievement of the 11th Aichi target strongly depend upon spatial scales and habitat classification, at least for coral reefs. The findings suggest that Aichi compliance assessments worldwide need to take into account variability and biases linked to habitat description. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,116,,Mar.

Changes in land use result in negative impacts on the ecosystem, affecting the functioning of stream communities. Objective: To compare the benthic macroinvertebrate community richness, abundances and compositions in streams of three South Brazilian grassland landscapes and correlate community patterns with environmental and spatial variables. Methods: Fifteen streams along riparian forests were selected in three landscapes (mean geographical distance of 285.1 km) inserted in the Paraná and Uruguai river basins. Of the three landscapes, two are inserted in conservation units (State Park of Guartelá and Palmas Wildlife Refuge). Invertebrates were collected in 20 kick net points along 150 m of the streams between June and November 2015. Invertebrates were sorted in the laboratory with three sieves and were identified to the lowest taxonomic level possible. The taxa were classified in functional feeding groups of shredders/detritivores, predators, scrapers, collectors/filters and gatherers/collectors. For each stream, we measured the environmental variables width and velocity, pH, dissolved oxygen, and temperature; and the relative cover of forest, grassland, plantation and silviculture in the catchments. Results: We found a total of 1 058 individuals, divided in 53 morphospecies and 34 families. Lower abundance of benthic macroinvertebrates was found in the northernmost landscape with higher temperature, and forest in the catchment. These streams were described mainly by predator groups, while streams inserted in the other two landscapes showed a more diverse guild composition of shredders/detritivores, gatherers/collectors, collectors/filterers, and scrapers. Geographical distance was the main factor influencing differences in community compositions among landscapes. Conclusions: Lower abundance of the northernmost landscape may be explained by (i) the low habitat heterogeneity due to dominance of sandy substrates, and by (ii) the anthropogenic land use of agriculture and extensive cattle breeding in the region that is ongoing and started before the creation of the conservation unit. Additionally, composition of macroinvertebrates may be correlated with environmental differences among landscapes that, in turn, are related to the geographical distance. Therefore, macroinvertebrate community responses may reflect different biota biogeographical histories that can also be associated with historical land use practices. © 2020, Universidad de Costa Rica.

Marine litter within the European Marine Strategy Framework Directive. - ICES Journal of Marine Science, 70: 1055-1064.There have been numerous anthropogenic-driven changes to our planet in the last half-century. One of the most evident changes is the ubiquity and abundance of litter in the marine environment. The EU Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD, 2008/56/EC) establishes a framework within which EU Member States shall take action to achieve or maintain good environmental status (GES) of their marine waters by 2020. GES is based on 11 qualitative descriptors as listed in Annex I of the MSFD. Descriptor 10 (D 10) concerns marine litter. As a follow-up to the related Commission Decision on criteria and methodological standards (2010/477/EU) in which 56 indicators for the achievement of GES are proposed, the EC Directorate-General for the Environment, on the request of the European Marine Directors, established a Technical Subgroup on Marine Litter (TSG ML) under the Working Group on GES. The role of TSG ML is to support Member States through providing scientific and technical background for the implementation of MSFD requirements with regard to D 10. Started in 2011, TSG ML provides technical recommendations for the implementation of the MSFD requirements for marine litter. It summarizes the available information on monitoring approaches and considers how GES and environmental targets could be defined with the aim of preventing further inputs of litter to, and reducing its total amount in, the marine environment. It also identifies research needs, priorities and strategies in support of the implementation of D 10. The work of TSG ML also focuses on the specification of monitoring methods through the development of monitoring protocols for litter in the different marine compartments, and for microplastics and litter in biota. Further consideration is being given to monitoring strategies in general and associated costs. Other priorities include the identification of sources of marine litter and a better understanding of the harm caused by marine litter. © 2013 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.",,1055-1064,,6,70,,ICES J.

Participants sorted a set of statements ( n=42) into a forced-choice frequency distribution and centroid analysis revealed three factors for interpretation: (1) 'pro-conservation', characterised by views that conservation should be prioritised over commercial and economic interests; (2) 'pro-fisheries' who saw fishing as the priority and expressed concerns over the uncertainty of management measures and the number of planned MPAs; and (3) 'win-win' who felt that the current approach to marine management using MPAs would allow both fisheries and conservation goals to be met. Despite some differences in opinion, social acceptability of MPAs was identified across all three discourses, but was limited by the knock-on effects of the exclusion of stakeholders from the implementation of MPAs and the development of management measures. This resulted in disenfranchisement and uncertainty over the future of their activities. The results suggest that social acceptability of MPAs is generated by effective and ongoing stakeholder engagement, transparency and honesty relating to the costs and benefits of designations and a certainty that once sites are in place the resources exist for their effective management. Understanding social acceptability will guide adaptive management and increase the chances of MPA success and the meeting of global targets. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,30-38,,,65,,Mar.

Assemblages in static gear areas were more indicative of a healthy reef than those in mixed gear areas. Damage was recorded during pot hauling, but the area of damage was not the entire pot haul path. 25–30% of individuals were damaged (commonly through tissue abrasion) or removed. Notably, damage occurred to some long-lived, slow growing taxa raising concerns over impacts.

However, with a large proportion of these MPAs being no more than paper parks, it is important to be able to evaluate MPA success, determined by improvements to biophysical, socio-economic and governance conditions. In this study a systematic literature review was conducted to determine the most frequently used indicators of MPA success. These were then applied to a case study to demonstrate how success can be evaluated. The fifteen most frequently used indicators included species abundance, level of stakeholder participation and the existence of a decision-making and management body. Using the indicator framework with a traffic light system, we demonstrate how an MPA can be evaluated in terms of how well it performs against the indicators using secondary data from the literature. The framework can be used flexibly. For example, where no MPA data currently exist, the framework can be populated by qualitative data provided by local stakeholder knowledge. This system provides a cost-effective and straightforward method for managers and decision-makers to determine the level of success of any MPA and identify areas of weakness. However, given the variety of motivations for MPA establishment, this success needs to be determined in the context of the original management objectives of the MPA with greater weighting being placed on those objectives where appropriate. © 2016",,280-293,,,183,,J.

Among MPAs, a large percentage has been created with the implicit goal of protecting shark populations, including 17 shark sanctuaries which fully protect sharks throughout their jurisdiction. The Commonwealth of the Bahamas represents a long-term MPA for sharks, following the banning of commercial longlining in 1993 and subsequent designation as a shark sanctuary in 2011. Little is known, however, about the long-term behavior and space use of sharks within this protected area, particularly among reef-associated sharks for which the sanctuary presumably offers the most benefit. We used acoustic telemetry to advance our understanding of the ecology of such sharks, namely Caribbean reef sharks (Carcharhinus perezi) and tiger sharks (Galeocerdo cuvier), over two discrete islands (New Providence and Great Exuma) varying in human activity level, over 2 years. We evaluated which factors influenced the likelihood of detection of individuals, analyzed patterns of movement and occurrence, and identified variability in habitat selection among species and regions, using a dataset of 23 Caribbean reef sharks and 15 tiger sharks which were passively monitored in two arrays with a combined total of 13 acoustic receivers. Caribbean reef sharks had lower detection probabilities than tiger sharks, and exhibited relatively low habitat connectivity and high residency, while tiger sharks demonstrated wider roaming behavior across much greater space. Tiger sharks were associated with shallow seagrass habitats where available, but frequently transited between and connected different habitat types. Our data support the notion that large MPAs afford greater degrees of protection for highly resident species such as Caribbean reef sharks, yet still may provide substantial benefits for more migratory species such as tiger sharks. We discuss these findings within the context of species-habitat linkages, ecosystem services, and the establishment of future MPAs. © Copyright © 2021 Gallagher, Shipley, van Zinnicq Bergmann, Brownscombe, Dahlgren, Frisk, Griffin, Hammerschlag, Kattan, Papastamatiou, Shea, Kessel and Duarte.",,,,,7,,Front.

To protect its valuable marine resources, the waters of the bay are designated a Marine Life COnservation District. Marine parks provide access for public enjoyment and accommodate all interested groups. Marine park managers strive to balance the immediate demands for ocean recreation with the long term conservation of resources. The ideal management plan protects the marine environment as the most important consideration but also recognizes the needs of different user groups. In Hanauma Bay, however, managers' face challenges in controlling the amount of users the bay can withstand. Overuse has caused degradation of the water quality, death of coral species and overcrowding, making the park less enjoyable. In 1990, the Department of Parks and Recreation initiated restrictions to further protect the resources from overuse and ensure long term use of the site. This study combines results form scientific studies and direct observations to develop a conceptual model that reveals the dynamic relationship between recreational use and the coral reef ecosystem in Hanauma Bay. The model describes how the present use of the bay may be heavily discounting potential future values. The paper examines management objectives and the effects of the recently imposed restrictions of the park. Applications of the model are used to determine the effects of coral reef protection and recovery through: education, further restrictions on the number of users, user fees, and restricted areas at the park. These methods are introduced for managers in the evaluation of alternative management strategies. The model can ultimately improve park management decision-making and help to insure the protection of resources for the future.",,142-155,,,1,,,,,,,,Publ by ASCE,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Coastal Zone,,,,Coastal engineering; Coral reef; Decision-making; Economics; Environmental protection; Hanauma bay; Hawaii; Management; Marine park management,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Coastal Zone: Proceedings of the Symposium on Coastal and Ocean Management,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This paper analyzes the potential consequences of climate change on coastal erosion (e.g., impacts on beaches, wetlands and protected areas) by applying a Regional Risk Assessment (RRA) methodology to the North Adriatic (NA) coast of Italy. The approach employs hazard scenarios from a multi-model chain in order to project the spatial and temporal patterns of relevant coastal erosion stressors (i.e., increases in mean sea-level, changes in wave height and variations in the sediment mobility at the sea bottom) under the A1B climate change scenario. Site-specific environmental and socio-economic indicators (e.g., vegetation cover, geomorphology, population) and hazard metrics are then aggregated by means of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) with the aim to provide an example of exposure, susceptibility, risk and damage maps for the NA region. Among seasonal exposure maps winter and autumn depict the worse situation in 2070-2100, and locally around the Po river delta. Risk maps highlight that the receptors at higher risk are beaches, wetlands and river mouths.

It is agreed that effective management requires evaluating the tradeoffs between protection and economic costs for negatively impacted maritime activities. For these reasons, integrated approaches combining ecological and socio-economic aspects are needed to achieve nature conservation and sustainability targets. Here, we present an approach to identify cost-effective priority marine areas for protection through a Systematic Conservation Planning method, adopting the Basque Country as case study (SE Bay of Biscay). Eight protection scenarios were defined, targeting a combination of protection features: benthic habitats, biological value of cetaceans, birds, macroalgae, and macroinvertebrates, potential provision of ecosystem services, and habitat sensitivity to human activities. In turn, the total fishing pressure produced by artisanal fisheries was adopted as a measure of the socio-economic costs of protection (assuming, for this research, that fishing would be banned in the protected areas). The results indicated that existing marine protected areas (MPAs) were very close to achieving prescribed protection targets, while these targets could be achieved by increasing the size of the existing MPAs. Higher costs were associated with the declaration of areas that were targeting a larger number of protection features. Nevertheless, cost/effectiveness was higher in these cases, with the environmental benefits outweighing a comparatively smaller increase in cost. However, the most cost-effective scenarios were those that included the extension of already existing MPAs. The method implemented can assist managers and decision makers in identifying conservation gaps and ecosystem components that require special attention. In addition, the approach can be used to develop management strategies that may be adopted under different protection scenarios. Thus, the approach proposed here could be used to inform ecosystem-based marine spatial planning. © Copyright © 2021 Galparsoro and Borja.",,,,,8,,Front. Mar.

However, most of these studies have applied these models to seafloor data with appropriate numbers of ground-truth samples and without consideration of the imbalances in the ground-truth datasets. In this study, we aim to address these issues by conducting class-specific predictions using ensemble modelling to map seafloor sediment distributions with minimal ground-truth data combined with hydroacoustic datasets. The resulting class-specific maps were then assembled into a sediment classification map, in which the most probable class was assigned to the appropriate location. Our approach was able to predict sediment classes without bias to the class with more ground-truth data and produced reliable seafloor sediment distributions maps that can be used for seafloor monitoring. The methods presented can also be used for other underwater exploration studies with minimal ground-truth data. Sediment shifts of a heterogenous seafloor in the Sylt Outer Reef, German North Sea were also assessed to understand the sediment dynamics in the marine conservation area during two different short timescales: 2016–2018 (17 months) and 2018–2019 (4 months). The analyses of the sediment shifts showed that the western area of the Sylt Outer Reef experienced sediment fluctuations but the morphology of the bedform features was relatively stable. The results provided information on the seafloor dynamics, which can assist in the management of the marine conservation area. © 2021 by the authors.

There are, however, both social and ecological reasons to adopt dynamic closures, where reserves move through time. Using a general theoretical framework, we investigate whether dynamic closures can improve the mean biomass of herbivorous fishes on reef systems, thereby enhancing resilience to undesirable phase-shifts. At current levels of reservation (10-30%), moving protection between all reefs in a system is unlikely to improve herbivore biomass, but can lead to a more even distribution of biomass. However, if protected areas are rotated among an appropriate subset of the entire reef system (e.g. rotating 10 protected areas between only 20 reefs in a 100 reef system), dynamic closures always lead to increased mean herbivore biomass. The management strategy that will achieve the highest mean herbivore biomass depends on both the trajectories and rates of population recovery and decline. Given the current large-scale threats to coral reefs, the ability of dynamic marine protected areas to achieve conservation goals deserves more attention. © 2009 Blackwell Publishing Ltd/CNRS.",,1336-1346,,12,12,,Ecol.

But which marine habitats should be protected, those areas at greatest risk or those at least risk? We first defined this problem mathematically for 2 alternate conservation objectives. We then analytically solved this problem for both objectives and determined under which conditions each of the different protection strategies was optimal. If the conservation objective was to maximize the chance of having at least 1 healthy site, then the best strategy was protection of the site at lowest risk. On the other hand, if the goal was to maximize the expected number of healthy sites, the optimal strategy was more complex. If protected sites were likely to spend a significant amount of time in a degraded state, then it was best to protect low-risk sites. Alternatively, if most areas were generally healthy then, counterintuitively, it was best to protect sites at higher risk. We applied these strategies to a situation of cyclone disturbance of coral reefs on Australia's Great Barrier Reef. With regard to the risk of cyclone disturbance, the optimal reef to protect differed dramatically, depending on the expected speed of reef recovery of both protected and unprotected reefs. An adequate consideration of risk is fundamental to all conservation actions and can indicate surprising routes to conservation success. © 2008 Society for Conservation Biology.",,1619-1629,,6,22,,Conserv.

We formulate a new conservation planning problem that aims to minimize the probability of missing conservation targets as a result of catastrophic events. To illustrate this approach we formulate and solve the problem of minimizing the impact of large-scale coral bleaching events on a reserve system for the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. We show that by considering the threat of catastrophic events as part of the reserve design problem it is possible to substantially improve the likely persistence of conservation features within reserve networks for a negligible increase in cost. In the case of the Great Barrier Reef, a 2% increase in overall reserve cost was enough to improve the long-run performance of our reserve network by >60%. Our results also demonstrate that simply aiming to protect the reefs at lowest risk of catastrophic bleaching does not necessarily lead to the best conservation outcomes, and enormous gains in overall persistence can be made by removing the requirement to represent all bioregions in the reserve network. We provide an explicit and well-defined method that allows the probability of catastrophic disturbances to be included in the site selection problem without creating additional conservation targets or imposing arbitrary presence/absence thresholds on existing data.

The assessment of the natural resources management in the National Park showed that the management of the area is oriented towards biodiversity conservation and lies within the scope of the habitat directive and the ecological network Natura 2000. The framework applied and the methodological approach followed in this study appear to provide a useful basis for designing and conducting management evaluation. The indicators used at local scale can be integrated at regional- and national-scale projects of management evaluation, and, at the same time, the evaluation results can help local managers to improve management by taking the appropriate management measures.

Through continuous monitoring and analysis of birds in a given area, we can objectively understand the trend of bird species diversity. Inner Mongolia Tumuji National Nature Reserve is well known for conserving the iconic endangered species, such as great bustard (Otis tarda dybowskii)and red-crowned crane (Grus japonensis), as well as the important bird breeding area, stopover site and wintering ground in China. Due to long-term farmland reclamation and overgrazing, the grassland and wetland in this reserve had been degraded, and bird habitats had been suffered from fragmentation, which had influences on the bird population dynamics. However, the inter-annual and monthly variability of bird population dynamics is not yet clear. The aim of this study is to analyze the temporal and spatial changes of bird diversity in Tumuji Nature Reserve, and determine the dynamics of bird populations. By combining line transect and point count surveys, the birds were field monitored and surveyed during the breeding season for five consecutive years on May and June from 2015. Based on the monitoring data, the population dynamics, bird diversity and bird evenness index were analyzed in Tumuji nature reserve for the past 5 years (2015-2019). A total of 99 species of birds were detected belonging to 15 orders and 33 families, of which Anseriformes and Charadriiformes are the dominant species, and the population size of great bustard showed a spatial and temporal change. There were significant spatial differences in the number of bird species and population size. The average bird community diversity was 2.39±0.39 across all surveying sites, with wetland being higher than that in grassland, and farmland-dominated habitat diversity the lowest. The average evenness index was 0.33±0.05, and birds distribution varied among geographical sites. Conservation practice should be directed to the breeding season, and surveying intensity should focus on determining the key protection area, and ensure that the bird breeding is free from human interference. Meanwhile, it will facilitate the protection and monitoring of biodiversity, and provide scientific support for evaluating the effectiveness of protected area management and optimizing protection policies. © 2021, China Environmental Science Press.

We demonstrate the difference and significance of considering indirect economic impacts in the process of cost-benefit analysis under sea level rise. Based on the results, we recommend that the most effective strategy is partial protection of land use plus inundated transportation network upgrade, even though the total shoreline protection can make more benefits. Furthermore, we compare the performance of objective planning year from two criteria: total benefits and cost-effectiveness. The result indicates that the year 2080 could be the most economical if it is set as the objective year for the long-term infrastructure planning. The result also highlights that the economic analysis of infrastructure should be conducted over time since the total costs are distributed over many years.

Between 2008 and 2010 we satellite tracked 15 adult female hawksbill turtles Eretmochelys imbricata in the eastern Pacific Ocean to evaluate their movement behavior and to guide management and conservation efforts of this highly endangered population. Movements and habitat use were highly neritic, and post-nesting migration distances (maximum = 283.11 km) were short relative to migrations of other sea turtle species. In foraging areas, the majority of hawksbills established restricted, inshore home ranges within mangrove estuaries. A large proportion (>65%) of turtle location points fell within protected areas, although many of these sites lack enforcement and monitoring. The consistent use of estuar-ine and mangrove habitat for nesting and foraging may explain why hawksbills went virtually undetected in the eastern Pacific for decades. The spatially restricted and neritic life cycles of adult hawksbills in the eastern Pacific highlight threats (e.g. overlap with coastal fisheries, increased susceptibility to habitat degradation and/or catastrophic events) and opportunities for conservation (e.g. acute conservation target areas, less variant jurisdictional boundaries/regulations) for this species.

In particular, the cryosphere shrinkage is deeply changing the features and characteristics of several glacierized mountain areas of the world, and these modifications can also affect the landscape perception of tourists and mountaineers. On the one hand glacier retreat is increasing the interest of tourists and visitors in areas witnessing clear climate change impacts; on the other hand cryosphere shrinkage can impact the touristic appeal of mountain territories which, diminishing their ice and snow coverage, are also losing part of their aesthetic value. Then, to promote glacierized areas in a changing climate and to prepare exhaustive and actual proposals for sustainable tourism, it is important to deepen our knowledge about landscape perception of tourists and mountaineers and their awareness of the ongoing environmental modifications. Here we present the results from a pilot study we performed in summer 2009 on a representative glacierized area of the Alps, the Forni Valley (Stelvio National Park, Lombardy, Italy), a valley shaped by Forni, the largest Italian valley glacier. During the 2009 summer season we asked tourists visiting the Forni Valley to complete a questionnaire. This study was aimed at both describing the features and characteristics of tourists and mountaineers visiting this Alpine zone in summer and evaluating their landscape perception and their ability to recognize climate change impacts and evidence. Our results suggest that the dissemination strategies in a natural protected area have to take into account not only the main landscape features but also the sites where the information will be given. In particular considering the peculiarities of the huts located in the area, such as their different accessibility and the fact that they are included or not in a mountaineering network like that of the Italian Alpine Club. Both these factors can influence the kind of visitors to the area, thus requiring different dissemination strategies. Moreover, differences in the viewpoints from where visitors could watch and understand landscape also have to be considered. Next, in a protected area where climate change effects are evident, the dissemination strategies should be developed in close cooperation with scientists who are analyzing the area and with the support of periodic interviews which could be very useful to evaluate the effectiveness of the applied dissemination methods. Last but not least, the questionnaire should be standardized and distributed in several protected areas, thus permitting useful comparisons and the identification of common solutions for sharing in a friendly way scientific knowledge about climate change and its effects on the environment and the landscape. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2012.",,1125-1138,,6,50,,Environ.

Globally, coastal lagoons are of great ecological and socioeconomic importance as providers of valuable ecosystem services. However, these fragile environments are subject to several human pressures, including pollution by microplastics (MPs). The aim of this review was to identify and summarize advances in MP pollution research in coastal lagoons across the world. We consider peer?reviewed publications on this topic published in English and Spanish between 2000 and April 21, 2022, available in Scopus and Google Scholar. We found 57 publications with data on MP abundances and their characteristics in 50 coastal lagoons from around the world, 58% of which have some environmental protection status. The number of publications on this type of pollution in lagoons has increased significantly since 2019. Methodological differences amongst studies of MPs in coastal lagoons were nevertheless a limiting factor for wide?ranging comparisons. Most studies (77%) were conducted in single environmental compartments, and integration was limited, hampering current understanding of MP dynamics in such lagoons. MPs were more abundant in lagoons with highly populated shores and watersheds, which support intensive human activities. On the contrary, lagoons in natural protected areas had lower abundances of MPs, mostly in sediments and organisms. Fiber/filament and fragment shapes, and polyethylene, polyester, and polypropylene polymers were predominant. MPs had accumulated in certain areas of coastal lagoons, or had been exported to the sea, depending on the influence of seasonal weather, hydrodynamics, anthropogenic pressures, and typology of MPs. It is advised that future research on MP pollution in coastal lagoons should focus on methodological aspects, assessment/monitoring of pollution itself, MP dynamics and impacts, and prevention measures as part of a sound environmental management. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,315,,Environ.

Here we review the scale of responses of target populations and communities to protection within Mediterranean MPAs, against their 'normal' spatio-temporal heterogeneity, and compare those with documented cases from other temperate and tropical marine ecosystems. Additionally, we approach the problem of the relative importance of habitat structure, considered as a set of biological and physical elements of the seascape hierarchically arranged in space at multiple scales, to drive natural variability. We conclude that much more effort has to be made to characterize heterogeneity in relation to Mediterranean MPAs, and to quantify and explain relationships between target species and their habitats as sources of such variability. These studies should be based on sound sampling designs, which (1) generate long-term data sets, and would ideally (2) be based on a Mediterranean-wide comparison of a number of protected and unprotected localities, (3) be designed from a multi-scaled perspective, and (4) control for factors other than protection, in order to avoid their confounding effects.

Marine Areas for Responsible Fishing (Áreas Marinas de Pesca Responsable, AMPR) have emerged as a new model for the co-management of small-scale fisheries in Costa Rica, one that involves collaboration between fishers, government agencies, and NGOs. The primary objective of this paper is to elucidate some of the key variables that influence collective action among small-scale fishers in Tárcoles, a community in the Gulf of Nicoya. We examined collective action for the formation of a local marketing cooperative and participation in management through the AMPR.

As climate change becomes an increasing concern, these efforts must take into account how resilient-protected spaces will be in the face of future drivers of change such as warming temperatures. Climate landscape metrics, which signal the spatial magnitude and direction of climate change, support a convenient initial assessment of potential threats to and opportunities within ecosystems to inform conservation and policy efforts where biological data are not available. However, inference of risk from purely physical climatic changes is difficult unless set in a meaningful ecological context. Here, we aim to establish this context using historical climatic variability, as a proxy for local adaptation by resident biota, to identify areas where current local climate conditions will remain extant and future regional climate analogues will emerge. This information is then related to the processes governing species’ climate-driven range edge dynamics, differentiating changes in local climate conditions as promoters of species range contractions from those in neighbouring locations facilitating range expansions. We applied this approach to assess the future climatic stability and connectivity of Japanese waters and its network of marine protected areas (MPAs). We find 88% of Japanese waters transitioning to climates outside their historical variability bounds by 2035, resulting in large reductions in the amount of available climatic space potentially promoting widespread range contractions and expansions. Areas of high connectivity, where shifting climates converge, are present along sections of the coast facilitated by the strong latitudinal gradient of the Japanese archipelago and its ocean current system. While these areas overlap significantly with areas currently under significant anthropogenic pressures, they also include much of the MPA network that may provide stepping-stone protection for species that must shift their distribution because of climate change. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,4440-4452,,10,23,,Global Change Biol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,biota; climate analogues; climate change; Climate Change; climate conditions; climate variation; connectivity; conservation; ecological coherence; ecology; Ecology; ecosystem; Ecosystem; fresh water; Fresh Water; Japan; nature conservation; Oceans and Seas; protected area; protected areas; risk assessment; Risk Assessment; sea; stability,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We assessed the influence of a spatial scale to rank the importance of these factors. Location: New Caledonian (south-west Pacific Ocean, 17–24° S, 158–172° W) Exclusive Economic Zone, Coral Sea Marine Park. Taxon: Fish. Methods: Fish and habitat data that were collected at 13 sites around New Caledonia using unbaited rotating underwater video (285 sampling stations) were analysed. Gradient forest modelling was used to predict the fish ?-diversity along the gradients of environmental factors. Ecoregions were obtained by applying clustering methods to gradient forest predictions. Results: The gradient forest models of ?-diversity retained 59 species (total: 206 fish species) with R˛ > 0, including 19 fish species with R˛ from 0.03% to 69%. For these 19 species, the models explained up to 26% of the variance. At a large scale, ?-diversity was significantly explained by nutrient concentrations, sea surface salinity and temperature. Among the eight ecoregions that were delineated based on the ?-diversity predictions, three regions corresponded to remote sites under oceanic influence where human pressures are low and the surface nutrient concentrations are high. On the local scale, the benthic habitat explained ?-diversity better than the physical and chemical parameters, particularly in the areas subject to anthropogenic pressures. Main conclusions: On the local scale, the respective importance of environmental factors (physical and chemical parameters versus benthic habitat) differed according to ecosystem health. Our findings suggest that nutrient enrichment due to avifauna may have a positive effect on fish ?-diversity when an ecosystem is healthy.

The weaknesses of the domestic bureaucracies in this region results in a gap between their formal rules and the expected outcomes. Forest management is an issue of competition between production and environmental bureaucracies all over the world. Bureaucracies search for new fields of responsibility, increased budgets and resources for assuring their positions, expanding their territory. The administrative bodies that regulate forests and protected areas can direct the behaviour of subordinate agencies as a power projection strategy to provide formal jurisdiction over forest reserve instruments. Hence, the aim of this study is to analyse the different strategies used by domestic bureaucracies to increase their power in light of a new forest law in the province of Rio Negro, Argentina. Data was obtained through semi-structured interviews with key actors and document analysis using process tracing and actor centred power methodologies. Our results show that, after the approval of the national forest law, the provincial environment administration increased rank and expanded into forest territories. The consolidated presence of a new outpost office gained power and resulted in a rivalry with its counterparts. However, the ongoing changes in the institution’ structure and the production bureaucracy's long-term presence affected the environmental bureaucracy's consolidation leading it to an instability. Moreover, our results strengthened the tourism and real market informal interests behind the weakness of the formal objectives of the environmental bureaucracy’ hypothesis. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,134,,For.

The conceptual framework of ecosystemic services (ES) is proposed as a powerful approach to be considered in public environmental policies, currently oriented towards human wellbeing (Bennet et al., 2015; López-Santiago et al., 2014; De Groot et al., 2010; Chan et al., 2011; Fisher et al., 2009; Oropeza et al., 2015). But studies made about ecosystemic services have focused in biophysical and economic assessments, relegating cultural values, meanings, and preferences (Müller et al. 2010:2; Lamarque et al., 2011; Martín-López et al., 2014). Due to the importance of the perception by local population of the transformations of the cultural landscape in which they inhabit, in this writing we will hence focus in the cultural category of ES From a descriptive perspective, the landscape expresses the numerous interactions existing between society and the territory, its conformation being the result of natural and human factors reciprocally interacting through time. The abundant richness of natural resources of Mexico, and of the state of Chiapas, has been indiscriminately exploited along history, and more intensely so in recent times. Large-scale exploitation of resources has been justified as a mean for reaching to economic prosperity, depleting resources without concern for the immediate future. We herein present the case study of the ejido Tzinacal in the municipality of Huixtla in the state of Chiapas, that being located within the La Encrucijada Biosphere Reserve becomes paradigmatic for studying the effects of the concurrence of conservation and development policies, as well as the perception of the population regarding changes in the landscapes produced as a consequence of application of such policies along time. The main objective of our research was to identify the perceptions of the population inhabiting the Biosphere Reserves regarding changes in the landscape. Tzinacal had a population of 635 inhabitants (319 men and 316 women). The locality belongs to the municipality of Huixtla. Its total surface area being then of 5,450 ha. The main productive activities in the ejido are agriculture and farming, fishing being a minor activity. The application of 23 semi-structured interviews allowed for identifying the attitudes and perceptions of the elder population regarding their landscapes and their relation with their surrounding environment. During the early 20th century the development of the region was imprinted by the railroad and the Pan-American Highway that opened the coastal region to the rest of Mexico and to Central America. The Coast of Chiapas region produces mainly maize, beans, sesame, rice, sugar cane, and fruits such as cantaloupe, watermelon, and pineapple mostly for self-consumption. Deforestation and land use change continue to intensely alter ecosystems, and the migratory processes accelerated by the expansion of the communications network lead to a process of transculturation and alteration of traditional models of appropriation of natural resources. In the last decades of the 20th century the cultivation of the African oil palm (Elaeis guineensis), sesame, rubber, and sugarcane was promoted through various governmental institutions, increasing the pressure upon local rural communities. The generalized discourse among farmers inhabiting the zone is in favor of development, regardless of environmental conservation. But there is also a feeling of longing for what was before. And it is not that the opinion of inhabitants is completely divided, a person can talk about the initiatives for planting sugarcane or palms, and later on be talking with nostalgia about how the forest and the animals in it used to be. The region began to be colonized having in mind settling, building houses, working the land, and forming a community. Influenced by governmental initiatives, local farmers began planting what was more profitable (rice, sesame, sugarcane, African oil palm). Grazing of cattle is a growing activity, but if management forms do not guarantee the functions and services of ecosystems within the protected area, ecosystems will be severely altered. All these processes have led to the destruction of the vegetation and the alteration of natural cycles -such as climatic cycles, which in turn is influenced by global processes-. We currently see in the area landscapes that have been degraded and lessened ecosystemic services; processes of landscape transformation that are perceived by local inhabitants (Barrasa and Reyes, 2011; Andrade 2012).

The concept acknowledged that a range of spatial measures other than protected areas were appropriate for reaching Aichi Target 11 spatial conservation coverage. The OECM definition was adopted in 2018 in CBD COP Decision 14/8, which calls on States to mainstream OECMs into economic sectors, to recognize the current biodiversity conservation benefits and co-benefits from their area-based management measures and enhance them as much as possible. In the marine capture fisheries sector, the identification of OECMs is a work in progress and the issues addressed in this paper are key implementation issues that States and fisheries authorities are or will be encountering regarding their governance, management, and biodiversity outcomes. The purpose of the paper is to draw attention to some key OECM implementation issues arising in marine capture fisheries and to suggest possible approaches to address them. The governance issues addressed relate to enabling frameworks, industrial fisheries, legitimate authorities, long-term commitments, cross-sectoral coordination and planning, and contribution to the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework of the CBD. The management issues considered relate to effectiveness in achieving expected outcomes, costs and benefits of OECMs, spatial relations between OECMs and fisheries, and the role of OECMs in the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries (EAF). Regarding the significant positive biodiversity outcomes expected from OECMs, issues relate to the type of outcomes expected, their current or intended nature, the level of evidence required, and their relationship to area-based conservation standards.

However, such data are often not readily available in particular areas that are challenging for sampling by traditional sampling techniques, for example seamounts. Within this study habitat modelling techniques were used to create predictive maps of six species of conservation concern for the Le Danois Bank (El Cachucho Marine Protected Area in the South of the Bay of Biscay). The study used data from ECOMARG multidisciplinary surveys that aimed to create a representative picture of the physical and biological composition of the area. Classical fishing gear (otter trawl and beam trawl) was used to sample benthic communities that inhabit sedimentary areas, and non-destructive visual sampling techniques (ROV and photogrammetric sled) were used to determine the presence of epibenthic macrofauna in complex and vulnerable habitats. Multibeam echosounder data, high-resolution seismic profiles (TOPAS system) and geological data from box-corer were used to characterize the benthic terrain. ArcGIS software was used to produce high-resolution maps (75×75m2) of such variables in the entire area. The Maximum Entropy (MAXENT) technique was used to process these data and create Habitat Suitability maps for six species of special conservation interest. The model used seven environmental variables (depth, rugosity, aspect, slope, Bathymetric Position Index (BPI) in fine and broad scale and morphosedimentary characteristics) to identify the most suitable habitats for such species and indicates which environmental factors determine their distribution. The six species models performed highly significantly better than random (p<0.0001; Mann-Whitney test) when Area Under the Curve (AUC) values were tested. This indicates that the environmental variables chosen are relevant to distinguish the distribution of these species. The Jackknife test estimated depth to be the key factor structuring their distribution, followed by the seabed morpho-sedimentary characteristics and rugosity variables. Three of the species studied (Asconema setubalense, Callogorgia verticillata and Helicolenus dactylopterus) were found to have small suitable areas as a result of being restrictive species related to the environmental characteristics of the top of the bank. The other species (Pheronema carpenteri, Phycis blennoides and Trachyscorpia cristulata), which were species less restrictive to the environmental variables used, had highly suitable areas of distribution. The study provides high-resolution maps of species that characterize the habitat of two communities included in OSPAR and NATURA networks, whose distributions corroborate the adequate protection of this area by the management measures applied at present. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,151-164,,,106,,Deep-Sea Res.

These are transformations that cause significant environmental damage in vulnerable coastal areas, but whose results are very often not really visible until 10, 20, or even 40 years have elapsed. In addition, the analysis and quantification of the current context in complex territories is particularly difficult, since the spatial feedback of various issues and its consequences can generate an uncertain scenario with many interrelated variables. In this field, the use of GIS tools can be of great help to objectively analyze the relationship between coastal anthropization and its impact on its vulnerability in order to correct wrong inertias in vulnerable coastal areas. To this end, a long-term GIS analysis has been carried out of the impacts from urbanization and seaside infrastructures suffered by a complex Mediterranean coastal area in Spain. This territory, with singular elements such as dune ridges, beaches located in protected areas, and a coastal lagoon, will be evaluated using GIS spatio-temporal indicators over the last 90 years and geostatistical correlation methods.

Therefore, after reaching the target of standardizing urban research that makes it possible to build healthier and greener cities, the real challenge for the future is to make the leap from urban scale to regional scale and deploy these policies in an integrated manner, in so-called “smart territories”. In that context, this paper presents a model of multidisciplinary analysis through indicators based in land consumption and transformation rates. The model, called GIS-LiDAR retrospective analysis, is implemented through territorial information tools in order to simulate and diagnose possible future imbalances based on past and current trends. This innovative methodology will be applied in a Spanish Mediterranean coastal area called the Campo de Cartagena, a territory with issues related to low-density urban sprawl, intensive agriculture and mass tourism coastal urbanization. This territory of high economic activity and with important environmental protected areas like the Mar Menor lagoon as well as complex interrelated phenomena will be “retrohistorically” diagnosed from the perspective of land transformation over 60 years. The method, designed to advance future scenarios and help planners in decision-making, will show dangerous current trends leading to imbalances in this area so that future planning can be implemented with smart (sustainable) criteria. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,1408-1421,,,195,,J.

When identifying the critical habitats where individuals aggregate, these areas can be ideal candidates for MPAs. This study was focused on the endangered fin whale (Balaenoptera physalus) for which there is little knowledge on its distribution and abundance in non-breeding temperate latitudes. Location: Bay of Biscay (BoB). Methods: Firstly, we modelled the relative abundance of fin whales by means of generalized additive models (GAMs) using data collected on the PELACUS (2007–2008) and JUVENA (2013–2016) oceanographic surveys during late summer. Secondly, we evaluated the reliability of the predictions by distinguishing environmental extrapolations and interpolations. Finally, we identified critical areas of highest predicted abundance and we assessed whether existing MPAs comprised within the Natura 2000 network and designated for other species offer protection to fin whales in the BoB. Results: Fin whales were especially abundant in deep off-shore waters, mainly associated with intermediate temperature water values in the inner part of the BoB. The years with the highest relative predicted abundances (an average of 1,500 whales) matched with years when warmer sea surface temperature extended into larger areas. In colder years, the average predicted abundance dropped to 400 whales. The main critical area for fin whales (defined by the highest 40% of abundance) was common for both surveys, and it was located in the south-eastern part of the BoB. Main conclusions: Our study contributes to the identification of important concentration areas of fin whales during late summer, based on reliable spatial predictions. The assessment of the current Natura 2000 network highlights the fact that only three MPAs marginally covered the critical area we have identified for fin whales. We propose a transboundary potential MPA to aid the conservation of the species in the BoB. © 2019 The Authors.

Systematic conservation planning (SCP) aims at ensuring biodiversity persistence while minimizing the threats faced by the species and/or the economic costs related to protection. To account for spatio-temporal interactions between species and human threats, conservation planning for mobile wildlife requires time-series data derived from monitoring of species and human threats, a process that is costly and technically challenging. Therefore, assessments of the monitoring period needed to ensure sufficient data input in the design of efficient, adequate and representative networks of PAs are crucial. We demonstrated the value of time-series data in conservation planning by implementing SCP and data from different monitoring periods to identify priority conservation areas for highly mobile marine megafauna accounting for their main threat: commercial fishing. Two analyses of 10 reserve-design scenarios each, replicated as many times as the data composing each scenario permitted were run in Marxan. The best solutions of the planning scenarios were statistically compared using the Cohen's Kappa test. We also assessed differences in spatial similarity among and within scenarios using the Wilcoxon nonparametric test and a non-metric multidimensional scaling analysis. Finally, we compared the necessary cost and the area selected for each scenario. Our study highlights the importance of time-series ecological and socioeconomic data for the robust selection of priority conservation areas. The results revealed different thresholds of the minimum temporal data required to design efficient networks of PAs for highly mobile species, demonstrating that the incorporation of data covering longer periods to the scenarios produce a more robust selection of priority conservation areas. Conservation plans using data covering <3 years were missing important priority areas. Synthesis and applications. We provide a method for estimating the minimum number of years of monitoring required to design efficient networks of protected areas that ensure the persistence of highly mobile species such as cetaceans and seabirds. This method can be used within an adaptive management framework to evaluate whether a network of protected areas performs as planned, and to test whether management strategies should be altered or adjusted in response to local and global changes. © 2020 British Ecological Society",,608-619,,3,58,,J.

From a review of empirical studies aiming at assessing the ecological effects of Mediterranean and Macaronesian MPAs, we conclude that establishing an MPA is successful for (i) increasing the abundance/biomass, (ii) increasing the proportion of larger/older individuals, and (iii) enhancing the fecundity of commercially harvested populations; also, MPAs demonstrated to be effective for (iv) augmenting local fishery yields through biomass exportation from the protected area, and (v) inducing shifts in fish assemblage structure by increasing the dominance of large predator species. However, the attraction for tourism and diving due to ecological benefits of protection can cause damages likely to reverse some of the MPA effects. Other expected effects are more subject to uncertainty, and hence need more research, such as (vi) causing density-dependent changes in life history traits and (vii) protecting the recruitment of commercially important species, (viii) protecting marine biodiversity (including genetic diversity), (ix) causing ecosystem-wide effects such as trophic cascades, and (x) increasing community and ecosystem stability, thus promoting resilience and faster recovery from disturbance. Meta-analysis of data arising from these case studies are used to establish the overall effect of MPAs, and its relationship to MPA features, such as size of no-take area or time since protection. Based on the review and the meta-analyses, specific recommendations are provided for MPA management, regarding the establishment of goals and objectives, site selection, MPA design and zoning, planning, and monitoring. Finally, a series of recommendations for MPA research are offered to drive future research in MPA issues in the Mediterranean and Macaronesia. © 2008 Elsevier GmbH.

Despite the growing literature about the expected response of populations and communities to protection from fisheries, and the number of studies measuring some of these effects, most of the mechanisms supposed to work in a marine reserve have not yet been empirically demonstrated. One of the main difficulties ecologists have to face when approaching this problem is the inherent spatial and temporal heterogeneity of ecosystems. This paper reviews the relevant literature and addresses the influence of physical environment (or habitat structure) on ecological processes occurring at the individual, population, and community/ecosystem levels of organization. It evaluates how the responses confound the ""reserve effect"" with some aspect of the ""habitat effect"". Finally, it proposes some practical considerations for improving the methods aiming to evaluate the effect of protection in the face of heterogeneity, illustrated with some examples taken from our studies on Mediterranean rocky reef fish assemblages, and argues that a multiscaled, hierarchical approach to this problem (the seascape perspective) should be adopted as an integrating principle when designing a research program aiming to understand the way marine reserves work as fisheries management tools.

This impact is mostly negative but, simultaneously, some of the species that colonize artificial substrata (sometimes rare or threatened) find refuge in man-made structures. The protection of endangered species is usually provided by marine protected areas or by laws that punish their damage or collection, but effective enclosure and custody must be achieved in the case of easily accessible intertidal species. We used the ferruginous limpet, Patella ferruginea, as a case study because it is the most endangered invertebrate in the Mediterranean. This species, which lives in the intertidal zone and is very accessible to people, is a free-spawning, protandric hermaphrodite, highly dependent on population density and individual size for its reproductive success. Previous work by the authors found the species is especially abundant on artificial substrates on both shores of the Strait of Gibraltar, where people collect fewer of them. Spanish laws of coastal management do not allow the enclosure of the natural coastline, but artificial installations like harbour breakwaters may be closed or guarded, and visits for educational purposes may be carried out under control. The possibility of declaring some kind of environmental protection for these artificial areas would be a very helpful tool for conservation and management purposes. Protected individuals would grow larger and eventually produce exponentially more offspring, whichcould be transported by currents to adjacent habitats. Here we propose a protection concept for artificial sites termed Artificial Marine Micro-Reserve (AMMR), where some endangered species experience a refuge from human disturbance. This concept is a modification of the land micro-reserves that have been recently declared in small natural sites that keep rare plant species. A network of AMMRs would be the final objective, allowing the creation of a great metapopulation of P. ferruginea and also giving refuge to other endangered species that have been found to grow in this type of substratum. Critically, the declaration of a micro-reserve cannot be used as a reason in favour of new construction because of the negative influence of such structures on the marine environment, together with the fact that there is no certainty that valuable species will settle on them. © 2010 Blackwell Verlag GmbH.",,Jun-14,,1,32,,Mar.

In total, 85 species were recorded, which belong to 65 genera, 24 families, and 13 orders. The most representative order was Passeriformes with 53 species. Most species (83) were considered very rare, and two species (Aratinga canicularis and Calocitta formosa) were rare. Regarding the avian diversity,0 D, the Centre locality had 74 species (19 exclusive spe-cies), while the Mountain locality had 65 species (11 exclusive species). The dry season had a higher diversity (H? = 3.44) than the rainy season (H?= 3.41), but there were no significant differences (Hutcheson t = 0.365, d.f. = 1, p > 0.05). Eighty-two percent (70 species) were considered residents, 15.3% (13 species) were winter migrants, 1.2% (one species) were summer migrants, and 1.2% (one species) were transient. Of the total registered taxa, 50 species were principally insectivorous, 14 species were grain-frugivorous, eight species were omnivorous, six species were carnivorous, and six species were nectarivorous. The avifauna of CNPA El Gavilán shows that a marked effect does not exist in the species composition between seasons. Due to the species richness recorded and estimated there, the study area should be considered in conservation policies, particularly because this territory is under intense pressure due to changes in land use. © 2023, Fund for Support and Development of Protected Areas """"Bear Land"""".

Dunes systems have their own intrinsic values and provide a range of goods and services, including the protection of tangible goods located on the shoreline affected by waves, storms, and sea erosion. Dunes also act as repositories of biodiversity that have their exclusive habitat in dune communities, and the aesthetic value of dune landscapes derived from unique plant communities and landforms is also of great importance. Nevertheless, dune systems on developed coasts suffered a drastic decline in geomorphological and ecological quality throughout the last century. Catalonia (Spain, NW Mediterranean Sea) is no exception, and the coastal dune systems which were present in the early 20th century have now disappeared due to urbanization. The regeneration of dune systems is of crucial importance in this context. The aim of this study is to assess the current status of dune systems in Catalonia in order to determine their future prospects based on beach characteristics, those beaches likely to host dunes being determined according to their width and sediment type. The results of our study show that nowadays most dune systems in Catalonia are not developed due to human pressure on the beaches. Only those beaches located in the natural protected areas in Roses Bay, Baix Ter Bay, the Llobregat Delta, and especially the Ebro Delta, have the right characteristics to host well-developed dune systems. That said, 30% of sandy beaches in Catalonia have a width of over 35 metres; wide enough to host well-developed dune systems if appropriate integrated beach management is applied. The methodology used in this research also provide a tool to assess which are the beaches that can host dunes on other developed shores in the Mediterranean area. © 2017, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,519-532,,3,22,,J.

Rachel Atkinson and colleagues review eradication as a tool for invasive species management in Galápagos. They report on the history of species introductions in Galápagos and show that the rate of introductions steadily increased since the 1830s, rising most rapidly during the last 50 years. In 2008, the tally of introduced terrestrial species was 1, 445 including 870 plants, 536 invertebrates, 30 vertebrates and ten diseases. Of these introduced species, many have invaded native ecosystems. Vertebrate invasions were the first to cause impact and alarm in the latter half of the twentieth century. These have been followed by plant and invertebrate invasions that now cover huge areas, particularly in the highland regions of the inhabited islands, and further invasions are expected in future. The authors encourage the reader to consider potentially positive and negative impacts of eradication programs to the whole ecosystem, not just iconic species. They consider four main criteria before deciding to attempt eradication: (1) strategic-operational; (2) biological; (3) economic; and (4) socio-political. They list the following important considerations: (1) an eradication operation should not be attempted if reintroduction cannot be prevented; (2) the rate of removal must exceed the rate of population increase; (3) species with limited distributions, that are easily detectable, with a short-lived dormant stage (e.g. a seed or egg bank), and that have a known control method for reproductive individuals, are prime candidates for eradication; (4) eradications, especially when carried out at the early stages of invasion, are cost-effective and theoretically neat solutions to prevent the future or current impact of invasive species. Additionally, eradications should not be started if there is insufficient funding to address unforeseen consequences of the operation on ecosystem dynamics. Another frequently overlooked requirement is the need for governmental and public support for all aspects of the project from the start in order to ensure that there are no barriers to the program from beginning to end. The tool of eradication is attractive to both donors and managers alike, as there is a measurable outcome and a definite endpoint to the project. However, there are limits to the use of eradication as a tool for conservation. The authors discuss these limits, analyzing 57 eradication projects of vertebrates, invertebrates and vascular plants from 1961 to present. Of these, 27 have been successful, 20 unsuccessful and ten are ongoing. The majority of successes were of large vertebrates, whereas most plant and invertebrate eradication attempts were unsuccessful. They found common trends in project successes and failures with operational, biological, economic and social criteria all contributing. They discuss the future of eradications and the alternatives in Galápagos. Matthias Wolff and coworkers use a trophic modeling approach to integrate ecological and fisheries data for a holistic description of the Galápagos Marine Reserve (GMR) ecosystem and to evaluate the effect of the banning of industrial fishing in the GMR in 1998 and the coinciding El Nińo event. For the construction of their baseline flow model they used data from the late 1990s when industrial fishery was still in place. Estimated pre-1998 catch volumes in the GMR were in the realms of average catches in other oceanic and shelf systems, hence, the model was considered to be realistic. Top order predators were the warmblooded toothed whales, but large pelagic fish and cephalopods also played a prominent role. Simulations suggest that the GMR has undergone a substantial recovery process of large pelagic fish and sharks since industrial fishery was banned 12 years ago. According to the model simulations, most large pelagic fish would have - under normal environmental conditions - attained 10-20% stock increase after only two years after the fishery ban, concordant with literature findings showing that marine reserve closure is almost immediately effective in less than two years. Nevertheless, the El Nińo event suppressed this rapid response for a further two to three years, suggesting that the bottom-up effect on the system of reduced primary productivity was stronger than the top-down effect from the release in fishing pressure. The first species predicted to surpass the pre-El Nińo reference level was the yellowfin tuna, followed by wahoo, dolphin fish and sailfish. Owing to their slow population turnover rates, sharks followed later. Juvenile sharks are predicted to maintain reduced biomass throughout the time due to strong control by increased levels of top predators. Sea lions, cormorants, penguins and sea turtles needed the whole 12-year period to rebuild their populations. The authors emphasize that the disruption of the system by the El Nińo impacted in the medium term (three to nine years), leading to higher biomasses of large pelagic fish predators than under the same fishery conditions without the El Nińo impact. This suggests that, since predator biomass is reduced during the El Nińo, prey populations find an “open loophole” to proliferate first and are then followed by their predators in a Lotka-Volterra fashion. It then takes several years for the system to normalize. Long-term monitoring data for marine mammals, birds and sea turtles confirmed the El Nińo driven population reductions simulated by the model. Marjan van den Belt presents mediated modeling (MM) as a computer-based tool that can facilitate the participation of diverse stakeholders in the identification and valuation of ecosystem services from a conservation and human perspective. Systems thinking (the use of causal diagrams) and system dynamics (quantitative representations of feedback loops and time lags to understand systems) provide the underlying modeling philosophy. MM is presented as a decision support tool that can feed into all phases of adaptive management: envisioning; assessment; planning; implementation; and monitoring. The discussion between the stakeholders involved is interpreted by a mediated modeler and reflected back into the dialogue for all participants in real time. The integration of ecology, economics and social issues for sustainable development is often considered a normative objective in a MM process. In her contribution, Marjan uses a first pass example of how MM - based on a model produced using the STELLA software - could work in Galápagos to demonstrate how this tool could promote stakeholder dialogue. © 2012 selection and editorial material, Matthias Wolff and Mark Gardener; individual chapters, the contributors.",,240-242,,,,,,,,,,,Taylor and Francis,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: The Role of Science for Conservation DOI: 10.4324/9780203126790-23,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Two baited methods, baited underwater video (BUV) and experimental angling (EA), were more efficient and had lower levels of estimate variation than diver-based underwater visual census (UVC). The BUV and EA recorded more fish and of greater size ranges than UVC, and also had fewer zero count replicates. The BUV and EA methodologies revealed highly significant differences in abundance and size of fish between sites (reserve v. non-reserve), whereas UVC revealed no such differences. These results indicate that BUV is likely to be the most accurate, cost-effective and easy to use methodology for the surveying of carnivorous temperate reef fishes for future monitoring. It is noted, however, that new data acquired using the BUV methodology may need to be compared over a calibration period to data acquired using the UVC methodology to ensure that historical data sets derived from UVC still have validity and application for future monitoring activity. © 2012 The Authors.

Objective: To describe an area in the Equatorial Atlantic used as a mating ground by N. brevirostris, as well as part of the species pre-copulatory behaviors based on citizen reports. Methods: Between 2004 and 2019, recreational divers, dive guides and rangers from the Marine Protected Area (MPA) in Fernando de Noronha Archipelago (FEN) recorded courtship behaviour, females with mating scars, pregnant females, and adult males. Results: N. brevirostris was recorded mating in shallow waters (0.5-2 m deep) during the austral summer (December to March). A specific location in the MPA, Buraco da Raquel lagoon, was the main aggregation and mating site for adult N. brevirostris in FEN. Conclusions: Citizen science records allowed the identification of shallow waters as key sites for the reproduction of this shark in FEN. Results highlight the potential of citizen science contributions to knowledge of sharks in nature and show MPAs as essential for habitat conservation of sharks with decreasing populations along the Brazilian coast, such as N. brevirostris.

The aim of this study was to manage E. nuttallii, a relatively recent arrival to this lake, while simultaneously promoting rehabilitation of native charophytes. The trial was carried out in Loughbrickbay, one of the lough’s primary boating launch sites, an area determined as highly infested with E. nuttallii. Two experimental areas covering a total of 800 m2 were treated by covering the invasive weed and substrate with jute textile, a single and double layer respectively. The trial was successful in controlling E. nuttallii for both single (P = 0) and double layer treatments (P = 0.002). The treatments applied resulted in a reduction of the mean percentage cover of the invasive species by > 60% for both treatments. Post-treatment mean percentage cover of E. nuttallii did not exceed 6% for either treatment. Furthermore, the mean percentage cover of indigenous charophyte flora present pre-treatment was not significantly impacted by the application of jute in either the single (P = 0.165) or double treatment (P = 0.353). For biosecurity purposes, the treatment areas were strategically positioned in close proximity to the bays pier and slipway. The treated transects were marked with navigational buoys to provide a corridor for boats entering and exiting the lake, which help to contain the invasive within the Natura 2000 site while reducing the spread risk via this pathway to other sites vulnerable to infestation. © Garland et al.",,118-130,,1,13,,Manag.

Building on an existing bio-economic model for self-financed FPAs, we examine the economic and operational feasibility of establishing an ecolabel approach to balance the costs endured by fishers when implementing an FPA. Optimal increased profits can be achieved by designating the ecolabelled self-funded managed-fishing area for 20–25% of FPA. Multi-zone MPAs with a price premium derived from catch ecolabel certification inside partially protected areas surrounding FPAs provide incentives to help fishers engage into adopting sustainable fishing practices.

The objectives of the present study were to describe and analyse the composition and structure of aquatic Coleoptera and Hemiptera assemblages in three coastal lagoons of north-western Spain during a one year cycle, in order to evaluate their relative adequacy to provide information about the conservation value of lagoonal habitats and sites. The lagoons are designated as Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) under the European Union Habitats Directive and two of them are also protected by the Ramsar Agreement. Several abiotic variables, including salinity, were recorded at the time of sampling. 2. In total, 67 species (52 Coleoptera and 15 Hemiptera) and 6568 adult individuals (2664 Coleoptera and 3904 Hemiptera) were collected. In all pair-wise comparisons Kendall's coefficients of concordance between lagoons were higher for Hemiptera than for Coleoptera, indicating that Hemiptera assemblages were more similar across sites. 3. Most species recorded had a wide Palearctic distribution and only three species of water beetles could be considered endemic to Iberia: Hydroporus vagepictus, Hydroporus vespertinus and Hydrochus angusi. Similarly, the species collected had a widespread distribution in the Iberian Peninsula as the only species considered to be rare taxa at this scale were Hydrochus angusi and Cymbiodyta marginella among the Coleoptera and Sigara scotti and Notonecta glauca glauca among the Hemiptera. 4. The results do not support the idea of distinct aquatic insect assemblages for coastal lagoons in the Iberian Peninsula. Comparisons of the numbers of interior (non-coastal) and coastal provinces of the Iberian Peninsula where the species had been recorded showed they had been recorded in a larger proportion of interior provinces. 5. Salinity seemed to reduce species richness in both groups while the results of a canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) showed that the majority of species responded negatively to salinity. 6. This study suggests that species richness and rarity of aquatic insect assemblages may underestimate the conservation value of lagoonal habitats because their net contribution to catchment biodiversity is likely to be low.

Red-throated loons Gavia stellata and black-throated loons G. arctica are the key species in the designation of the SPA ’Eastern German Bight’, located in the German Exclusive Economic Zone of the North Sea; however, one offshore windfarm (OWF) has been constructed within and four OWFs just outside this SPA within the last few years. The current study integrated previous findings on the strong avoidance of OWFs by loons to assess the effects of these developments on the SPA. OWFs affected on average half of the SPA. We observed a major change in the overall distribution of loons in the study area; the area with the highest densities had shifted southwest and the spatial extent of the high-density area had decreased. The northern third of the SPA, which previously often included the highest concentrations, had been almost abandoned by loons. Variability in loon distribution was significantly restricted after the OWFs became operational. These findings have important implications for the functioning of this Marine Protected Area. The construction of OWFs within the loons’ foraging habitats has increasingly restricted their spatial flexibility and thus their foraging behaviour. We conclude that the establishment of OWFs inside and even adjacent to a protected area counteracts its conservation targets. Ignoring such effects may lead to a loss of such retreats for threatened species and habitats. © 2024 The Author(s)",,,,,84,,J. Nat.

Core areas are concentrated along the coast of the USA, Mexico, and Venezuela. Only 24% of predicted suitable habitat is encompassed by the present regional network of MPAs, and is intersected by numerous, heavily trafficked shipping lanes. Manta rays are slow-growing animals that only produce a limited number of offspring; as such, this species is sensitive to even moderate increases in mortality rates. For this reason, the existing regional network of MPAs may offer them limited protection. As manta rays in the WCA are challenged by a complex landscape of threats and protective measures, future marine conservation planning in the region should explicitly address the conservation of manta rays, focusing on areas identified as key habitats for the species. © 2020 The Zoological Society of London.",,322-334,,3,24,,Anim.

Globally, does orchid diversity correlate with land area? In Australia, does diversity correlate with herbarium collecting effort, range size, or climate niche breadth? Where are Australia's orchids distributed spatially, in protected areas, and in climate space? Location Global, then Australia. Methods We compared orchid diversity with land area for continents and recognized orchid diversity hotspots. Then, we used cleaned herbarium records to compare collecting effort (for Australian Orchidaceae vs. all other plant families, and also among orchid genera). Spatial and climate distributions were mapped to determine orchids' coverage in the protected area network, range sizes, and niche breadths. Results Globally, orchid diversity does not correlate with land area (depauperate regions are the subantarctic: 10 species, and northern North America: 394 species). Australian herbarium records and collecting effort generally reflect orchid species diversity (1,583 spp.), range sizes, and niche breadths. Orchids are restricted to 13% of Australia's landmass with 211 species absent from any protected areas. Species richness is the greatest in three biomes with high general biodiversity: Temperate (especially southwest and southeast Australia), Tropical, and Subtropical (coastal northern Queensland). Absence from the Desert is consistent with our realized climate niche-orchids avoid high temperature/low rainfall environments. Orchids have narrower range sizes than nonorchid species. Highly diverse orchid genera have narrower rainfall breadths than less diverse genera. Main conclusions Herbarium data are adequate for testing hypotheses about Australian orchids. Distribution is likely driven by environmental factors. In contrast, diversification did not correlate with increases in range size, rainfall, or temperature breadths, suggesting speciation does not occur via invasion and local adaptation to new habitats. Instead, diversification may rely on access to extensive obligate symbioses with mycorrhizae and/or pollinators.",,11235-11245,,22,8,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000451611000047,,,,,,,Australian Virtual Herbarium; biogeography; BIOGEOGRAPHY; BIOLOGICAL COLLECTIONS; collecting effort; CONSERVATION; DOWN-UNDER; HOT-SPOT; MYCORRHIZAL FUNGI; natural history collections; niche breadth; Orchidaceae; PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS; POLLINATION; protected areas; SEXUAL DECEPTION; species richness; SPECIES RICHNESS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The overarching goal of the agreement is to halt biodiversity loss and restore natural ecosystems – and a much-cited target is the “30x30” target of protecting and restoring 30% of Earth by 2030. Salt marshes are highly productive coastal ecosystems relevant for both biodiversity and climate change mitigation but have experienced historical major losses and are among the habitats in need of protection and restoration. Currently, there is little knowledge about how salt marshes are valued from a societal perspective, which has important management implications. This is particularly the case in the Nordic region where awareness of these habitats is low. Using survey data from Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and Germany, this study contributes understanding how citizens value salt marshes by examining support for different management initiatives framed as contributing to the goal of either biodiversity protection or climate change mitigation. Generally, both respondents primed with information about the importance of salt marshes for biodiversity and for climate change mitigation were supportive of the management initiatives despite having little previous knowledge of salt marshes. For one initiative, respondents who were informed of the importance of salt marshes for biodiversity were slightly more likely to support the management initiative than those informed about the importance of salt marshes for climate change mitigation. Our study provides guidance for assessment of trade-offs from a human valuation perspective, thus supporting policy makers when considering arguments for salt marsh management within the context of the 30x30 targets for protected areas. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,253,,Ocean Coast.

In this study, we worked on the three largest islands through monitoring with camera traps. A systematic sampling (SS) was carried out by placing three cameras on each island and a participatory sampling (PS) with eight cameras placed by local residents, in sites of their choice. The cameras monitored three vegetation units: Coastal Albardón Forests (CAF), Internal Albardón Forests (IAE) and Esteros Shrublands (ES). The objective of this study was to characterize the MLM in terms of diversity, use of environments and islands, compare between methodologies and evaluate temporal patterns. It was possible to detect nine mammal’s species, three exotic and six natives. The island with the least anthropic intervention was different from the other two, with greater richness and number of records. Although the assemblages between environments do not show variation, the highest richness was in BAI. Eight species were detected in SS and PS added a species. It was possible to evaluate the temporal patterns of eight species of which three were cathemeral and two nocturnal.

While they may succeed in locally preventing species and habitat degradation due to human activities, their ability to mitigate the impacts of climate change on biodiversity is still debated. We assessed whether community and species responses to climate change were related to PAs by testing three main predictions: (1) the thermal adjustment of community composition to temperature changes should be positively related to the proportion of PAs, (2) the species that benefit most from PAs should be less impacted by temperature change, and (3) the species a priori considered the most vulnerable to global change should be even more sensitive to the mitigating effect of PAs. Location: Mainland France. Methods: Data from a long-term, large-scale standardized monitoring programme, recording annual changes in the abundance of 116 breeding bird species in France between 2001 and 2012, were used. Local temporal trends in spring temperature, community reshuffling and bird populations over the country were estimated with a moving window approach (2094 spatial windows). Generalized additive mixed models were then performed to relate these responses to the local proportion of PAs. Results: Most PAs promote community adjustment to temperature changes. At the species scale, our results show that the more a species benefited from PAs, the less vulnerable it was to temperature changes. PAs were also more effective in mitigating the impact of climate change on the less common and northernmost birds. Main conclusion: Protected areas do seem to mitigate climate change impacts on species and communities. Our study argues for the use of integrative frameworks at different biological scales to assess the usefulness and relevance of PAs faced with climate change and suggests that PAs remain key effective conservation strategies in a changing climatic world. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,625-637,,6,22,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,abundance; Aves; biodiversity; bird; climate change; Community; Conservation; conservation status; France; global change; Global change; habitat fragmentation; human activity; Natura 2000; Population response; protected area; seasonal variation; temperature gradient,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We examined 100 studies that empirically identify targeted resources, techniques used to procure resources illegally, locations of illegal activities, characteristics of typical violators, incentives driving illegal use of resources, magnitude of the problem of illegal use (e. g., quantities used), or frequency of illegal activity. We based our evaluation of the methods used in these studies on their ability to provide these empirical data, relative labor demands, training and technology requirements, and levels of uncontrollable bias. We evaluated eight different methods: law-enforcement records, indirect observation, self-reporting, direct observation, direct questioning, randomized response technique (a survey method designed to improve accuracy of responses to sensitive questions), forensics, and modeling. Different situations favored different methods, each with distinct advantages and limitations. Six context-specific factors-location of resource use (in situ vs. ex situ), budget, technology and training capacity, ease of detection of illegal activity, scope of illegal activity (limited vs. widespread), and researchers' willingness to accept bias in results-help narrow the choice of methods. Several methodological concerns applied to any study of illegal resource use: regular monitoring can detect trends; modeling can incorporate sampling error and data uncertainties; researchers must manage levels of bias that vary between methods; triangulation of results from multiple methods can improve accuracy. No method is a panacea, but a combination of techniques can help address the lack of data on illegal activity. Researchers empirically compared results from different methods in only four studies, and no one has compared more than two methods simultaneously. Conservation would benefit from more research focused on: methods comparisons that include cost effectiveness, time efficiency, and statistical rigor; unique applications of the eight techniques currently in use; and testing of new methods.",,89-100,,1,24,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000273686700014,,,,,,,AREA; CONSERVATION; conservation management; endangered species; FOREST; illegal natural resource use; law enforcement; LAW-ENFORCEMENT; LUANGWA-VALLEY; MANAGEMENT; MARINE PARK; poaching; PRODUCTS; protected areas; RANDOMIZED-RESPONSE TECHNIQUE; violation rates; WILDLIFE LAWS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Different object detection models were evaluated and compared in various shelf zones at the head of submarine canyon systems using metrics such as precision, recall, and F1 score. The best-performing model, YOLOv8, was selected for generating density maps of the two species at a high spatial resolution. The study also generated synthetic images to augment the training data and assess the generalization capacity of the models. The proposed approach provides a cost-effective and non-invasive method for monitoring and assessing the status of these important reef-building species and their habitats. The results have important implications for the management and protection of the 1170 habitat in Spain and other marine ecosystems worldwide.

Removal of the northern portion of the shallow coral reef at Rackham's Cay, which was partially obstructing the western end of the east ship channel, was proposed. This aesthetically valuable reef was used by local fishermen and comprises part of the declared Palisadoes - Port Royal Protected Area. The proposal to transplant certain of the benthic species was advanced to mitigate loss of viable reef components. Between December 2001 and February 2002, sixty thousand items, consisting of reef building massive and branching corals; gorgonians; urchins (Diadema and Tripneustes spp.) and Thalassia meristems were relocated. During dredging, sedimentation rates from suspended solids in the water column were 0.003 g/cm2/day at the control site and 0.008 g/cm2/day at the dredge site. Coral cover in the relocation area increased from 15% to 20% while bare substrate decreased from 27% to 21%. This paper documents the mitigation required; some factors controlling the ecology of Rackham's Cay reef; the methodology of the relocation process; and the level of post-dredging survivorship of relocated corals. Political and economic realities of some proposed developments often override ecological considerations. Transplantation of important marine benthic species although time consuming, technically challenging, and expensive, may be one way for developers and ecologists to achieve sometimes disparate goals. This project cost US$1.7 million. The ""items"" moved were neither unique nor endemic and remain vulnerable to natural and anthropogenic impacts. This project increased public awareness and interest regarding the ecological and economic importance of reef ecosystems.

This has fueled interest in the establishment of networks of no-take marine reserves as an additional form of protection. Proponents of marine reserves have suggested that reserves can provide a number of advantages over other, more traditional, methods. However, concerns have also persisted that marine reserves will reduce overall catch. In a theoretical context, this concern has been only partially addressed by previous work suggesting that reserves can produce equivalent yields to those from traditional management, since this possibility is widely interpreted as a limiting case. However, an ""equivalence-at-best"" scenario is based on a highly simplified model construct that ignores all spatial pattern and size structure characterizing real populations. By contrast, when coupled effects of (1) spatial pattern in adult densities and larval dispersal, (2) population size structure, and (3) aspects of life history are considered in their most basic forms, model results suggest that reserve networks may have the potential to enhance fishery yields under a surprisingly large number of circumstances. Such enhancement is predicted to be greatest, and at times substantial, in species exhibiting postdispersal density dependence and that have relatively long-lived and sedentary adults, life history traits common to many harvested fishes and invertebrates. A goal of this study is to spark further theoretical attention and experimental testing on this unanticipated front. © 2005 by the Ecological Society of America.",,2180-2191,,6,15,,Ecol.

It would also be seen as a global example for conserving biodiversity in ABNJ by collaboration between neighboring countries with common interests in a shared environment, contributing to global conservation goals.

Beside effective enforcement, an accurate understanding of the eco-evolutionary processes underlying the patterns of biodiversity is needed to reap the benefits of management policies. In this context, integrating population genetics with demographic data, the demo-genetic approach, is particularly relevant to shift from a “species-based pattern” toward an “eco-evolutionary-based processes” conservation. Here, targeting a key species in the Mediterranean coralligenous, the red coral, Corallium rubrum, in an emblematic Mediterranean MPA, the “Réserve Naturelle de Scandola” (France), we applied demo-genetic approaches at two contrasted spatial scales, among populations and within one population, to (i) infer the demographic connectivity among populations in the metapopulation network and (ii) shed new light on the genetic connectivity and on the demographic transitions underlying the dynamics of a near-pristine population. Integrating different spatial and temporal scales, we demonstrated (i) an apparent temporal stability in the pattern of genetic diversity and structure in the MPA in spite of a dramatic demographic decline and (ii) contrasted levels of genetic isolation but substantial demographic connectivity among populations. Focusing on the near-pristine population, we complemented the characterization of red coral demographic connectivity suggesting (iii) temporal variability and (iv) the occurrence of collective dispersal. In addition, we demonstrated (v) contrasted patterns of spatial genetic structure (SGS), depending on the considered stage-class (adults vs. juveniles), in the near-pristine population. This last result points out that the overall SGS resulted from a restricted dispersal of locally produced juveniles (SGS among adults and juveniles) combined to mortality during early life stages (decrease of SGS from juveniles to adults). Demonstrating the occurrence of two management units and the importance of two populations (CAVB and ALE) for the network of connectivity, we made recommendations for the management of the Réserve Naturelle de Scandola. Besides, we contributed to the implementation of scientifically driven restoration protocols in red coral by providing estimates for the size, density, and distances among patches of transplanted colonies. © Copyright © 2021 Gazulla, López-Sendino, Antunes, Aurelle, Montero-Serra, Dominici, Linares, Garrabou and Ledoux.",,,,,8,,Front.

Currently, this fringing barrier reef system and its coasts are subject to significant human pressure due to its unique proximity to the coast, and commercial and recreational fishing have the potential for major negative impacts on the marine life in the Ningaloo Reef waters. This paper aims to assist policy makers in formulating efficient, effective and sustainable coral reef conservation and management policies by providing them with the results and information from a valuation study using Ningaloo Reef in Western Australia as a case study. Choice Modelling, an economic valuation technique is employed to estimate the benefits of the non-use values of Ningaloo Reef and how these choices may be related to certain socioeconomic characteristics. The application of the technique involved surveys of visitors in relation to coral reef protection and conservation in the region of the Ningaloo coast. Choice Modelling is found to provide a flexible and cost-effective method for estimating non-use values, particularly when different alternative proposals need to be considered. This study can aid the design of socially optimal policies for conservation and sustainable management of the Ningaloo Marine Park ( Map 1), with implications for other coral reef regions in the rest of Australia.

Here, using the distributions of 102 biodiversity features and 7 extractive uses we trial the systematic conservation planning software Zonation as a decision-support tool to facilitate progress towards New Zealand's commitment to establishing a representative network of MPAs while providing for economic development. Our results indicate that: (i) New Zealand's existing MPAs provide on average 70% less representation of the input biodiversity features than would be achieved by an MPA network of equivalent area designed from the outset using Zonation; (ii) small increases in the geographic extent of existing protection results in rapid increases in representation of the selected biodiversity features when systematic conservation planning software is used to inform expansion of existing protection; and (iii) the impacts on existing resource users of an expanded MPA system can be minimized by using Zonation to identify areas that increase biodiversity representation, while avoiding areas where existing uses may be incompatible with marine protection. These results demonstrate the utility of systematic conservation planning software as a decision-support tool within a broader social process for MPA network design and implementation.

Aims: To use distribution modelling to investigate nesting habitat associations using a long-term data set for the Hen Harrier on Mull. Methods: We develop area-interaction models using a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator penalty to explore the distribution of 102 Hen Harrier nest sites in relation to habitat and topography. Our model is then successfully validated in tests using data for 70 nest sites from subsequent years. Results: Our model is effective in predicting suitable areas for Hen Harrier nest sites and indicates that Hen Harriers on Mull are found in habitat mosaics below 200 m above sea level. Hen Harrier nest intensity is positively associated with increasing proportions of moorland and scrub, open canopy forestry and closed canopy forestry. Nest intensity is negatively associated with increasing proportions of grazed land. Conclusion: Hen Harriers avoid grazed areas but are relatively tolerant of other habitat combinations. These findings are supported by previous observations of Hen Harrier habitat use and have implications for the recovery of some Hen Harrier populations in Special Protection Areas and future forest management.

One of the main threats to this vulnerable population is mortalities through ship strikes. It is argued that a SPAMI network does not have the potential to effectively reduce the threat of ship strikes on a firm legal, scientific and political basis, particularly given uncertainty over fin whale seasonal movements. Instead, an alternative sectoral approach to landscape-scale protection is discussed. Building on examples from North America, it is proposed that a wider spatial scale threat-based approach should be adopted, and that a regional network of restrictions of shipping activities through the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) will more effectively reduce the risk of ship-whale strikes. This is also more consistent with the ecosystem approach, since the emphasis is on ecological scales that cross administrative boundaries, even though it is within a single sector. It is concluded that mechanisms exist to address the challenges of implementing such an approach, and that sectoral measures through the IMO represent an important way forward for improving the conservation prospects for Mediterranean fin whales. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,01-Dec,,,51,,Mar.

Using Chile as a case study, we designed a market-based program aimed at improving fishers' livelihoods while incentivizing the establishment and enforcement of no-take areas within areas managed with territorial user right regimes. Building on explicit enabling conditions (i.e., high levels of governance, participation, and empowerment), we used a place-based, human-centered approach to design a program that will have the necessary support and buy-in from local fishers to result in landscape-scale biodiversity benefits. Transactional infrastructure must be complex enough to capture the biodiversity benefits being created, but simple enough so that the program can be scaled up and is attractive to potential financiers. Biodiversity benefits created must be commoditized, and desired behavioral changes must be verified within a transactional context. Demand must be generated for fisher-created biodiversity benefits in order to attract financing and to scale the market model. Important design decisions around these 3 components-supply, transactional infrastructure, and demand-must be made based on local social-ecological conditions. Our market model, which is being piloted in Chile, is a flexible foundation on which to base scalable opportunities to operationalize a scheme that incentivizes local, verifiable biodiversity benefits via conservation behaviors by fishers that could likely result in significant marine conservation gains and novel cross-sector alliances. © 2015, Society for Conservation Biology.",,1076-1085,,4,29,,Conserv.

In general the policy has been proclaimed a management and economic success because benthic resource abundances have increased inside MEABRs in comparison with open-access areas. However, there is a lack of studies assessing the impact of this management policy on nontargeted subtidal species and community assemblages and the policy's implications for biodiversity and conservation. This study starts to fill this gap and links the allocation of TURFs for benthic resources with addon conservation benefits for species that are not directly linked with the fishery policy. Comparative subtidal surveys inside vs. outside MEABRs were used to assess the effects of three MEABRs on managed targeted benthic species, biodiversity (species richness), and community assemblages in central Chile. Surveys focused exclusively on subtidal kelp forest habitats dominated by Lessonia trabeculata, spanning 4-12 m in depth and with similar levels of habitat complexity. The study comprised: (1) quantification of kelp forest complexity, (2) understory survey of sessile species, (3) quantification of conspicuous benthic macroinvertebrates, including those under management, and (4) quantification of reef-fish species inside the kelp habitat. Results showed population enhancement of target-managed invertebrates inside MEABRs. Moreover, reef-fish species were significantly more diverse and abundant inside MEABRs, and community assemblages of nontarget benthic invertebrates and reef fish were significantly different inside vs. outside MEABRs. The comanagement of inshore benthic resources in Chile, through MEABRs aims for the sustainability of invertebrate and algae stocks. However, our study shows that this management tool, which in practice restricts access to the entire management area, provides important conservation add-on effects for species that are not the focus of the management policies. Therefore, in Chile, the hundreds of already established MEABRs could represent an important ancillary network, which complements the biodiversity objectives of fully protected areas such as no-take marine protected areas or others. © 2008 by the Ecological Society of America.",,273-281,,1,18,,Ecol.

Therefore, this study aimed to assess the community structure of coral fish from three different marine protected area reef zones (utility zone, open access zone, core zone) around Lombok Island using eDNA metabarcoding. Biological community composition, richness, and diversity were evaluated based on reads from mid-column water and sediment samples. A total of 58 species were identified from the eDNA samples using the Multiplex Barcode Research And Visualization Environment (mBRAVE) pipeline.

Yet even appropriate uses can negatively impact resources requiring managers to make decisions as to when the impacts become unacceptably large. These decisions can be difficult because the level at which impacts occur may be far below the level at which resource persistence is threatened. In Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska, managers must make a recurring decision regarding the number of cruise ships that are allowed to enter the park each year. Cruise ships bring >95% of all visitors to the park but have been involved in several lethal collisions (ship strikes) with humpback whales. Using an individual-based simulation model, we demonstrate that increasing the annual ship volume from current to maximum allowable levels would have negligible impacts on population growth of whales. Over the next 30 years the median number of collisions would likely increase from 3 (95% CI: 0–7) to 4 (1–8) or, worst case scenario, from 5 (0–7) to 8 (3?13), while median annual growth rates would, at most, shift from 4.4% (3.7%–5.2%) to 4.2% (3.5%–4.9%), depending upon assumptions. By comparison, a median of 67 (50–82) ship strikes would need to occur over the next 30 years to threaten the persistence of whales. Confronted with an impact level that is far below what would threaten the conservation of whales, managers are tasked with the decision of placing values on 2 million additional visitors for every additional dead whale. We argue that decision-making related to use-impact trade-offs for protected areas could be more consistent and effective if site-values are defined explicitly, clearly communicated among stakeholders, and linked to biological metrics. Protected areas managers can then utilize monitoring programs to evaluate management effectiveness when the objective is conserving both resources and values. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,138-146,,,223,,Biol.

These habitats include Atlantic salt meadows (1330), Mediterranean salt meadows (1410) Mediterranean and thermo-Atlantic halophilous scrubs (1420), and Mediterranean salt steppes (1510). We compiled vegetation data from a total of 418 plots carried out during our own fieldwork (N = 157) and published scientific literature (N = 261). We performed a Linear Discriminant Analysis to associate species to habitats and used the phi coefficient of association to identify diagnostic species of each habitat. For each habitat, we provide a regional syntaxonomic framework, constant species, cover coefficients, diagnostic species (phi) and “typical species”. We identified groups of species, that we called “local assembly of typical species”, composed by species with a phi coefficient > 20 and/or a cover coefficient > 50 that can be used to identify the habitats and to monitor their conservation status at the local level. This study revealed differences in the “local assembly of typical species” among habitats, characterized by fewer species in habitats 1420 and 1510, and many species in habitats 1410 and 1310. Our results showed that the habitat 1510 was recognizable only for the high cover value of Limonium narbonense and, at least in Tuscany, its syntaxonomic attribution to the order Limonietalia is uncertain. We tested this approach only for a few habitats, but a broader applicability based on other habitats is desirable.

A questionnaire mixed approach to understanding stakeholders' consumption, attitudes and perceptions about the uses and impacts of SUPs in the third sector was used. Results show a significant seasonal consumption of SUPs and uncertainty in the behaviour to discard them. These provide valuable insights to fill research gaps in estimating the use of SUPs and consumers' perceptions. The main aim of this work has been to understand the critical issues regarding the use of SUPs, considering the target area's patterns, in support of designing action plans for changing behaviour and the mitigation of critical issues in favour of environmental conservation. © 2023",,,,,194,,Mar.

Despite the fact that the region is distant to big emission sources of anthropogenic pollution, air pollution and deposition can be significant for specific pollutants and seasons [1-2]. The main goal is to discuss recent data for dry depositions of oxidized nitrogen, reduced nitrogen and sulphur for the months of June, July and August of 2018, based both on field campaigns data and modelling results. The chemical analysis of atmospheric dry deposition samples, collected on monthly basis at the synoptic station Ahtopol, indicate prevalence of the chloride anion - 29% in July and 49% in August. Other abundant elements are sulphates, with share of 23% (July) and 8% (August), and nitrates - respectively 16% and 12%. The observational data are discussed in comparison to results of the EMEP MSC-W chemical transport model [3], applied by the Co-operative Programme for Monitoring and Evaluation of the Long-range Transmission of Air Pollutants in Europe for assessment of European air pollution policy. The modelled dry depositions at Ahtopol for the three summer months have highest values in August: oxidised nitrogen deposition 14.5 mg.m-2, reduced nitrogen deposition 10.9 mg.m-2 and sulphur deposition 9.3 mg.m-2. The highest underestimation by the model is for the sulphur deposition in August - 60%, while the highest overestimation, by a factor of about 4, is for the reduced nitrogen in August.

Because a given reserve may not be able to protect all life stages and habitats for wide-ranging marine organisms, reserves should target life history stages for which protection will foster the highest population growth rates. Likewise, it should be recognized that reserves designed to reduce mortality of a particular life stage, such as adults that are the focus of a fishery, will benefit some life history types more than others. For a representative range of marine life histories, we found that the change in ? resulting from a decrease in adult mortality varied for each species considered, with the largest positive impact on population growth in marine invertebrates and fish and lowest in species with very low adult mortality rates. Results from analyses of both mortality elasticity and absolute change in ? resulting from a decrease in adult mortality were highly correlated with adult survival rate and maximum fecundity, and also showed a significant relationship with age at sexual maturity, longevity and juvenile survival. Standardized demographic analysis may be a useful first step to compare disparate conservation goals for marine reserve design for species with distinct life histories. © 2004 Elsevier Ltd.

To investigate these questions, we use a simple Ricker model that includes fishing, larval dispersal, and larval loss while in a planktonic pool, and that tracks protected and unprotected populations. We applied two different measures of reserve effectiveness to our simulation results. One metric was intended to reflect goals oriented towards conservation and the second was intended to reflect fishery enhancement goals. Both metrics compare the situation before reserves are established to after the reserve has been in place and a new equilibrium was reached. Yield effectiveness is defined as the total equilibrium annual harvest after reserves are established divided by the total annual harvest before reserves are established. Conservation effectiveness is defined as the average adult density inside the reserve divided by the average density in the same area prior to reserve establishment. A substantial fraction of the 5120 simulated parameter combinations representing different harvest rates and life history attributes went extinct in the absence of a reserve, and these scenarios leading to extinction could be predicted accurately (85% aptly classified) simply on the basis of exploitation rate and population growth rate. Of the cases that did not go extinct, we compared the performance of reserves as measured by each effectiveness metric. Few of the cases (less than 8%) produced effective reserves as measured in terms of increased harvest; whereas over half of the cases resulted in effective reserves as measured by conservation effectiveness. Moreover, the two measures of reserve effectiveness were only weakly correlated. Simple linear regression or polynomial regression could explain at most 23% of the variation in reserve effectiveness as measured by either metric. As expected, the size of the reserve area had a marked and typically negative effect on total annual yield, which suggests that while marine protected areas may do a good job of conserving protected populations, there will generally be pressure from the fishing community to keep them small because of their tendency to reduce total catch. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Nevertheless, there are no general criteria about when and where to establish new reserves, how to evaluate their efficacy, and how to conduct adaptive management to achieve conservation goals. We applied a decision-theory framework to optimally allocate conservation resources between improving data on population status and establishing a reserve for species conservation. Our goal was to maximize reserve benefits given the constraints of a population growth rate that would permit sustainability of resources. We illustrate our decision framework with a retrospective analysis of a 7-year time series on abundance of the leopard grouper (Mycteroperca rosacea) in the Sea of Cortés, Mexico. We used the lower bound of the distribution of the population growth rate (?) as a decision rule for determining how many years of monitoring are needed to detect reserve effects. We determined the minimum time frame needed to estimate ? based on a stated level of risk tolerance for four sites. As expected, the coefficient of variation for the ? declined with the number of years of data. This increased precision with additional years of data resulted from the high degree of annual variability in the system. Where populations were slow to respond to reserves, more data were needed to detect a positive ? value. For the leopard grouper case study, confidence in the estimate of ? increased with the number of years of data. Our decision framework may be used to identify the minimum number of years of data needed before a management decision about reserve establishment could be made that is reasonably likely to meet its management objectives. © 2007 Society for Conservation Biology.",,1594-1602,,6,21,,Conserv.

MPA managers and higher governmental level authorities were interviewed about their perceptions of the implementation of a national MPA strategy and the recent changes in the institutional arrangement of government marine conservation agencies. Interviewees' narratives were generally pessimistic and the National System was perceived as weak, with few recognizable marine conservation outcomes on the ground. The following major flaws were identified: poor inter-institutional coordination of coastal and ocean governance; institutional crisis faced by the national government marine conservation agency; poor management within individual MPAs; problems with regional networks of marine protected areas; an overly bureaucratic management and administrative system; financial shortages creating structural problems and a disconnect between MPA policy and its delivery. Furthermore, a lack of professional motivation and a pessimistic atmosphere was encountered during many interviews, a malaise which we believe affects how the entire system is able to respond to crises. Our findings highlight the need for a better understanding of the role of 'leadership' in the performance of socio-ecological systems (such as MPA networks), more effective official evaluation mechanisms, more localized audits of (and reforms if necessary to) Brazil's federal biodiversity conservation agency (ICMBio), and the need for political measures to promote state leadership and support. Continuing to focus on the designation of more MPAs whilst not fully addressing these issues will achieve little beyond fulfilling, on paper, Brazil's international marine biodiversity commitments. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,630-643,,4,47,,Environ.

Six well-experienced informants were asked to individually provide information about goliath grouper abundance and distribution, drawn over a satellite image of the study area, which was later overlaid and gathered into a final map. According to our informants, the goliath grouper occurs along a broad salinity and depth range, from shallow estuarine areas (less than 5 m deep) with high freshwater input (smaller individuals, up to 150 kg) to coastal marine-dominated environments (at least 35 m deep); (larger individuals more common, frequently reaching more than 300 kg). Fishermen referred to goliath groupers inhabiting hard substrates such as rocky reefs around islands and continental shores, submerged rocky outcrops and shipwrecks (juveniles and adults). At least two aggregation sites mapped (ranging from 2 to 60 individuals) could be concluded as spawning aggregation sites through evidence of high abundance and spawning activity. Priority research and conservation targets were identified and discussed for Babitonga Bay (e.g. , design of a tagging experimental program and establishment of a marine protected area). Fishers' resource mapping provided a means of exchanging information among various disciplines while maintaining methodological rigor in a clear and straightforward way of presenting fishers' knowledge. The use of fishers' sketch maps is a promising tool for marine conservation in Brazil, with special regard to adaptive co-management regimes, where frequent environmental re-evaluations are needed. © 2009 Sociedade Brasileira de Ictiologia.",,93-102,,1,7,,Neotrop.

When it comes to protected area management, participation is mostly seen as an appropriate, if not even necessary, method for integrating the ecological as well as socio-economical dimensions of nature conservation and to achieve acceptance of management objectives. However, despite the apparent effort made by governmental agencies to expand the integration of affected stakeholders in decision making-processes in Germany, one cannot but recognise that these efforts repeatedly do not achieve the expected results. Affected stakeholders may refuse to take part in the participation process and conflicts may arise. This paper reveals possible explanations for this gap between expectations and outcomes by analysing a participation process in the Bavarian Forest National Park, Germany. The study uses a conflict-oriented approach, focusing on the actors involved, their perceptions, relations, and (inter)actions. The analysis shows that the actors' behaviour may not be so much determined by their interests but rather by other factors such as communicational and relational structures. On this basis, the article discusses the adequacy of different participatory methods depending on the conflict situation at hand and identifies approaches for managing these. © 2011 Elsevier GmbH.",,319-326,,5,19,,J.

A systematic conservation planning approach using benthic habitat and imperilled species data along with the site prioritization algorithm, MARXAN, was used to identify a spatially efficient portfolio of marine and estuarine sites around Florida with high biodiversity value. 2. Ensuring the persistence of an adequate geographic representation of conservation targets in a particular area is a key goal of conservation. In this context, development and testing of different approaches to spatiallyexplicit marine conservation planning remains an important priority. 3. This detailed case study serves as a test of existing approaches while also demonstrating some novel ways in which current methods can be tailored to fit the complexities of marine planning. 4. The paper reports on investigations of the influence of varying several algorithm inputs on resulting portfolio scenarios including the conservation targets (species observations, habitat distribution, etc.) included, conservation target goals, and socio-economic factors. 5. This study concluded that engaging stakeholders in the development of a site prioritization framework is a valuable strategy for identifying broadly accepted selection criteria; universal target representation approaches are more expedient to use as algorithm inputs, but may fall short in capturing the impact of historic exploitation patterns for some conservation targets; socio-economic factors are best considered subsequent to the identification of priority conservation sites when biodiversity value is the primary driver of site selection; and the influence of surrogate targets on portfolio selection should be thoroughly investigated to ensure unintended effects are avoided. 6.

Thus, for this purpose of management, a new method of fish assemblages monitoring (FAST—Fish Assemblages Survey Technique) has been tested in Tunisian marine waters. FAST survey was applied between 2011 and 2012 in three areas with various degrees of geomorphological features and human pressures; the future Marine Protected Area of Cap Serrat–Cap Negro and two coastal areas of Hammamet and Bizerte. The depths of the surveyed 11 stations are between 0 and 20 m. The FAST index is calculated seasonally for targeted species according to their presence / absence, and depending on two size classes. In terms of diversity and species richness, differences between sites were observed and results show that FAST method appears to be relevant, easy to implement and accurately reflects the environmental status of the study site.

However, the roles of mangrove habitat structures in association with variation in individuals and their community of waterbirds have not been examined in detail. The objective of this study was to determine the abundance, diversity and evenness of waterbirds in an Avicennia mangrove habitat. The study was conducted using a point count method at Hara Protected Area (HPA) in Iran for 1 year. A total of 59,387 waterbirds observations, belonging to 56 species, were recorded and categorized based on different seasons, where 13,825 (49 spp.), 34,267 (54 spp.), 6939 (46 spp.) and 4356 (35 spp.) observations were recorded in the different seasons of fall, winter, spring and summer respectively. In total, 80.98% of individual observations had occurred during the migratory season. Dromas ardeola (11,329 observation; 19.08%) and Calidris alpina (5261 observation; 8.86%) were the most abundant, while three species including Phalacrocorax nigrogularis (4 observations), Vanellus indicus (2 observations) and Chlidonias leucopterus (2 observations) were the least abundant waders and seabird species. There were significant differences between the number of waders and seabirds observed in fall (t = 1.22, P < 0.05), winter (t = 1.27, P < 0.05), spring (t = -0.78, P < 0.05) and summer (t = -1.55, P < 0.05). The results also showed that there was a significant difference between the number of individuals observed in different seasons (F3,232 = 7.4, P < 0.01). The abundance of waterbirds at HPA was highest in winter while the diversity and evenness were highest in spring. The HPA is important because of the presence of exotic species such as Numenius arquata that is listed as near threatened in the red list of the International Union for Conservation of Nature. HPA mangrove forest could be one of the ""megadiversity"" places in the Middle East. Thus, preventing further losses of the mangrove and reducing the impacts of disturbance on birds and their habitats should be prioritized. © Istituto per lo Studio degli Ecosistemi of the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, Firenze 2012.",,39-53,,1,25,,Trop.

The structuring role of main predators is assessed and compared using mixed trophic impacts (MTI) analysis and through calculate an interaction strength (IS) index. The results show that the main flows of consumption in the benthic community of the MEABR of San Vicente Bay occur in lower trophic levels (TL ? 2), while flows in higher trophic levels (TL ? 3) are related mainly to C. concholepas. The MTI and IS analysis show that C. concholepas and crabs are the groups whose changes in biomass caused the greatest change in total system biomass in MEABR of San Vicente Bay and can be characterized as playing important ecological roles in that places. Exploitation resulted in direct and indirect trophic impacts that have the potential of affecting the sustainability of this and other MEABRs. Future research should also aim at advancing knowledge on basic ecological parameters of exploited benthic communities beyond target species. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,155-163,,,119,,Ocean Coast.

Itstressed the importance of regular monitoring of the spatial and temporal distribution of dolphins in order to evaluate the impact of local activities. This study assesses whether land-based surveys could be an effective alternative to vessel-based surveys. During the summer of 2006, both surveys' methodologies were used at Lampedusa, with 35 sightings recorded from land and 31 from a boat. Comparison was based on the assessment of the type of information they provided in relation to the presence of the animals and their behavior. Both methodologies were applicable, but there were differences in their requirements, potential information generated, costs, and sensitivity to weather conditions. Vessel-based surveys require well trained observers and enable photoidentification and observation of social interaction and morphology. Animal movements, interactions with anthropogenic elements and group dynamics are better collected from land but spatial data can be documented up to 1 nautical mile from the coast. Weather conditions have a significant platform specific effect on sighting frequencies. The high sighting frequency during land surveys provides support for the development of zeroimpact land-based dolphins watching activity.© 2013 by the authors; licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.",,15-25,,1,5,,Diversity,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,action plan; Agrigento; Animalia; coastal zone management; Distribution; dolphin; habitat conservation; Italy; Mediterranean Sea; Pelagi Islands; protected area; Shore-based survey; Sicily; survey; Tursiops; Tursiops truncatus; Vessel survey,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, they are overlooked in marine conservation plans. Here, we examine for the first time the extent to which marine conservation planning research has addressed (or ignored) biological invasions. Furthermore, we explore the change of spatial priorities in conservation plans when different approaches are used to incorporate the presence and impacts of invasive species. Location: Global analysis with a focus on the Mediterranean Sea region. Methods: We conducted a systematic literature review consisting of three steps: (1) article selection using a search engine, (2) abstract screening and (3) review of pertinent articles, which were identified in the second step. The information extracted included the scale and geographical location of each case study as well as the approach followed regarding invasive species. We also applied the software Marxan to produce and compare conservation plans for the Mediterranean Sea that either protect, or avoid areas impacted by invasives, or ignore the issue. One case study focused on the protection of critical habitats, and the other on endemic fish species. Results: We found that of 119 papers on marine spatial plans in specific biogeographic regions, only three (2.5%) explicitly took into account invasive species. When comparing the different conservation plans for each case study, we found that the majority of selected sites for protection (ca. 80%) changed in the critical habitat case study, while this proportion was lower but substantial (27%) in the endemic fish species case study. Main conclusions: Biological invasions are being widely disregarded when planning for conservation in the marine environment across local to global scales. More explicit consideration of biological invasions can significantly alter spatial conservation priorities. Future conservation plans should explicitly account for biological invasions to optimize the selection of marine protected areas. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,1220-1231,,12,22,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,alien species; biogeography; biological invasion; biological invasions; conservation planning; endemic species; impacts; introduced species; literature review; management actions; marine biogeographic regions; marine environment; marine park; marine protected areas; Mediterranean Sea; protected area; software,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Yet, protection benefits only come into effect when an MPA is implemented with activated regulations and actively managed through continuous monitoring and adaptive management. To assess if actively managed MPAs are the rule or the exception, we used the Mediterranean and Black Seas as a case study, and retrieved information on monitoring activities for 878 designated MPAs in ten European Union (EU) countries. We searched for scientific and grey literature that provides information on the following aspects of MPA assessment and monitoring: ecological (e.g., biomass of commercially exploited fish), social (e.g., perceptions of fishers in an MPA), economic (e.g., revenue of fishers) and governance (e.g., type of governance scheme). We also queried MPA authorities on their past and current monitoring activities using a web-based survey through which we collected 123 responses. Combining the literature review and survey results, we found that approximately 16% of the MPA designations (N = 878) have baseline and/or monitoring studies. Most monitoring programs evaluated MPAs based solely on biological/ecological variables and fewer included social, economic and/or governance variables, failing to capture and assess the social-ecological dimension of marine conservation. To increase the capacity of MPAs to design and implement effective social-ecological monitoring programs, we recommend strategies revolving around three pillars: funding, collaboration, and technology. Following the actionable recommendations presented herein, MPA authorities and EU Member States could improve the low level of MPA monitoring to more effectively reach the 30% protection target delivering benefits for biodiversity conservation. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,355,,J.

Yet, evidence shows that the present network fails to represent effectively the biodiversity of the region. Priority areas for conservation of coastal and offshore biodiversity features in the Greek Ionian Sea were identified, based on the principles of systematic conservation planning (SCP). SCP is a transparent method for the design of MPA networks and is considered more efficient and successful in representing the biodiversity of a region. The prioritization software Marxan was used and three scenarios with different sets of targets for 17 (high and low priority) conservation features were produced. These scenarios explicitly took into account socio-economic factors expressed as a single cost metric, weighting different economic sectors in proportion to their contribution to the GDP of the region. Then results were compared with the existing Natura 2000 sites in terms of goal achievement, area requirements, and cost. The solutions produced by the systematic approach demanded less area and lower cost to achieve the goals set, when the selection of all Natura 2000 sites was not forced. Existing Natura 2000 sites alone failed to achieve conservation goals for some EU priority and other important coastal and offshore habitats and species of the Mediterranean Sea. It is suggested that the use of systematic conservation planning and related computational tools could benefit the selection of European marine priority areas, especially in the context of ecosystem-based marine spatial management. © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,762-775,,6,22,,Aquatic Conserv.

This globally significant biodiversity hotspot has been subjected to human exploitation and degradation for 1,000s of years. Recently, several initiatives have tried to identify priority areas for conservation across the Mediterranean Sea. However, none of these efforts have led to large-scale actions yet. The aim of the workshop was to establish a network of scientists who are involved in large-scale conservation planning initiatives throughout the Mediterranean basin to promote collaboration and reduce redundancy in conservation initiatives. The three focus groups of the workshop build on existing efforts and intend to deliver: (1) a roadmap for setting conservation priorities, (2) a methodological framework for linking threats, actions and costs to improve the prioritization process, and (3) a systematic conservation planning process tailored to complex environments such as the Mediterranean Sea. Joining forces and involving more scientists (especially from the South-eastern part of the region) in following meetings, the participants endeavour to provide guidelines on how to bridge the science-policy gap and hence aid decision-makers to take efficient conservation actions. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,943-949,,4,22,,Rev.

Identifying which factors contribute to their success or failure is crucial considering the international conservation targets for 2020 and the limited funds generally available for marine conservation. We identified common factors of success and/or failure of MPA effectiveness using peer-reviewed publications and first-hand expert knowledge for 27 case studies around the world. We found that stakeholder engagement was considered to be the most important factor affecting MPA success, and equally, its absence, was the most important factor influencing failure. Conversely, while some factors were identified as critical for success, their absence was not considered a driver of failure, and vice versa. This mismatch provided the impetus for considering these factors more critically. Bearing in mind that most MPAs have multiple objectives, including non-biological, this highlights the need for the development and adoption of standardized effectiveness metrics, besides biological considerations, to measure factors contributing to the success or failure of MPAs to reach their objectives. Considering our conclusions, we suggest the development of specific protocols for the assessment of stakeholder engagement, the role of leadership, the capacity of enforcement and compliance with MPAs objectives. Moreover, factors defining the success and failure of MPAs should be assessed not only by technical experts and the relevant authorities, but also by other stakeholder groups whose compliance is critical for the successful functioning of an MPA. These factors should be considered along with appropriate ecological, social, and economic data and then incorporated into adaptive management to improve MPA effectiveness. © 2018 Giakoumi, McGowan, Mills, Beger, Bustamante, Charles, Christie, Fox, Garcia-Borboroglu, Gelcich, Guidetti, Mackelworth, Maina, McCook, Micheli, Morgan, Mumby, Reyes, White, Grorud-Colvert and Possingham.",,,,JUN,5,,Front.

Yet, their effectiveness in protecting marine ecosystems from global stressors is debated. Biological invasions are a major driver of global change, causing biodiversity loss and altering ecosystem functioning. Here, we explored the relationships between MPAs and alien/native range-expanding fishes in the Mediterranean Sea, the world's most invaded sea. We surveyed fish and benthic communities in nine MPAs and adjacent unprotected areas across six countries. In the South and Eastern Mediterranean MPAs, the biomass of alien and native range-expanding fishes often exceeded 50% of the total fish biomass. Conversely, in the North and Western Mediterranean, alien fishes were absent. A negative relationship was found between native and alien species richness. Average and minimum sea surface temperature (SST) over six consecutive years were positively correlated with the total biomass of alien species; no alien fishes were recorded below 20.5°C average SST and 13.8°C minimum SST. We also found a negative relationship between alien fishes’ biomass and the distance from the Suez Canal, which is the main pathway for the introduction of alien fish in the Mediterranean Sea. The biomass of alien and native range-expanding fishes was found to be higher in the South and Eastern Mediterranean MPAs than in adjacent unprotected areas. The association of barrens (rocky reefs deprived of vegetation) and invasive herbivores was observed at all eastern sites, regardless of protection status. Currently, the level of fishing pressure exerted on alien and native range-expanding fishes seems to be the most influential factor determining the lower biomass of invasive fishes at unprotected sites compared to MPAs. Our findings suggest that complementary management actions, such as species-targeted removals, should be taken in MPAs to effectively control invasive fish populations. © 2018 by the Ecological Society of America",,,,1,29,,Ecol.

Such forests are sensitive to human disturbances, like the decrease in water quality, the coastal development and the outbreak of herbivores. Conspicuous historical declines have been reported in many regions and several Cystoseira species are presently protected by European Union (EU) environmental policies. The aim of this work was to synthesize the conservation perspectives of Cystoseira forests in the Mediterranean Sea, focusing on the opportunities offered by artificial restoration and highlighting the potential role of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). MPAs give a better protection to healthy forests than non-managed sites and may be a source of propagules for natural recovery and/or for non-destructive artificial restoration of nearby damaged forests. MPAs lacking Cystoseira forests may also represent preferential sites for reforestation. We proposed a flow-chart for the conservation and a reasoned restoration of Cystoseira in the Mediterranean Sea. The successful conservation of Cystoseira forests is still possible, via raising public awareness on the role of Cystoseira and reducing human impacts on coastal ecosystems. Such actions have to be coupled with more specific large-scale management plans, encompassing restoration actions and enforcement of protection within MPAs. © 2013 © 2013 Taylor & Francis.",,83-101,,2,4,,Adv.

Nevertheless, to date, marine N2K sites are generally scarcely implemented, studied and monitored, and thus their management effectiveness is weak, and their environmental status is often unknown. The Interreg Italy-Croatia ECOSS project aimed at establishing the ECOlogical observing system of the Adriatic Sea (ECOAdS), to integrate the existing research and monitoring activities in the area, and to promote data sharing at international level, for enhancing monitoring and conservation in Adriatic N2K network. In the framework of ECOSS, a conceptual model was developed and applied to selected N2K sites, to review the existing knowledge, assess site effectiveness, and suggest possible improvements in their monitoring and management based on the contribution that ECOAdS can provide to their implementation. Information on social, ecological, and oceanographic elements related to the conservation and management of these case studies was gathered by consulting the project partners involved in the management and monitoring of the sites and through a literature review. The results of this study revealed a discouraging condition with no management plan in most of the sites, while regulatory measures are generally in place but without surveillance. Monitoring activities are performed occasionally, and information on presence and status of protected species is often lacking or outdated. Although the N2K network provides a unique opportunity to advance marine conservation and achieve the 30% conservation target by 2030, the biggest challenge ahead is the proper management and monitoring of N2K sites. The proposed conceptual model may be taken as a framework to properly set up ecological observing systems in the N2K network and help overcome current limitations, integrating scientific research within the N2K conservation strategies.

These reefs also have socioeconomic relevance being in many locations an important income source through recreational activities. This study aimed to assess the potentially damaging behaviors of scuba divers on benthic reefs organisms in the first year of a new Brazilian diving destination, the Alcatrazes Archipelago Wildlife Refuge. We also assessed diver satisfaction to verify the effects of management measures on diver experience. Management measures were implemented through a best practices program aiming to improve low-impact diver behavior. Scuba divers caused the lowest contact rate with the reef described in the literature, maintaining low rates of potentially damaging behaviors over the year. Overall, each diver made an average of 0.63 contacts with the reef and 0.06 with the reef biota per 45 min of dive. Most of the contacts were unintentional and occurred in the first 10 min of the dive. The overall satisfaction of divers was high in all seasons. However, regarding specific attributes, experienced divers were more sensitive to increased underwater supervision. Our results highlight the effectiveness of continued initiatives like best practices program to improve low-impact diver behavior. Visitation monitoring programs are essential to understand the behavior of scuba divers and how the restrictions may affect diver enjoyment in reef environments. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,220,,Ocean Coast.

Incorporating the view of multiple stakeholders is an important component of MPA planning and management as it may simultaneously help reduce conflicts and increase adherence to rules and compliance. However, the most assessments of MPA management effectiveness is undertaken solely based on managers' perceptions. Here, we compared the perceptions of management effectiveness among managers and the management council members of three Brazilian marine reserves. Council members include stakeholders from the public and private sectors with different backgrounds. Overall, the marine reserves were classified as having medium management effectiveness, with managers perceiving higher levels of effectiveness than the council members. The main differences were related to poor communication among managers and council members and the perception of lack of participation on management decisions by council members. Assessing different perspectives on management effectiveness gives a more comprehensive understanding of the situation. Communication between managers and stakeholders is essential to guarantee that management challenges are more equally recognized. We recommend that further evaluations consider the diversity of stakeholders involved in the management to get a more realistic assessment on management effectiveness. The gap between managers and stakeholders’ views is an important indicator because it is related to the level of alignment between MPA goals and society expectations. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,179,,Ocean Coast.

The spatial configuration of MPAs was modified by the government in a typical top-down scenario that received neither public nor scientific input. We call for a ban on fishing activities around the islands and on mining activities within all MPAs.

A series of descriptive field studies were performed to assess fish and benthic communities between two areas within a newly established MPA in SW Portugal. We characterized benthic macroalgal composition and determined the size, density and biomass of the main benthic predatory and herbivorous fish species as well as the main benthic herbivorous invertebrates to assess indications of top-down control on the phytobenthic assemblages. Fish species were identical inside and outside the MPA, in both cases Sarpa salpa was the most abundant fish herbivore and Diplodus spp. accounted for the great majority of the benthic predators. However, size and biomass of D. spp. were higher inside than outside the MPA. The main herbivorous invertebrate was the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus, which was smaller and predominantly showing a crevice-dwelling behaviour in the MPA. In addition, P. lividus size frequency distribution showed a unimodal pattern outside and a bimodal pattern inside the MPA. We found significant differences in the algal assemblages between inside and outside the MPA, with higher abundance of turf and foliose algae inside, and articulated calcareous and corticated macrophytes outside the MPA, but no differences in the invasive Asparagopsis spp. The obtained results show differences in predatory fish and benthic community structure, but not in species richness, inside and outside the MPA. We hypothesize these differences lead to variation in species interactions: directly through predation and indirectly via affecting sea urchins behavioural patterns, predators might drive changes in macroalgal assemblages via trophic cascade in the study area. However due to non-biological differences between the two areas it is difficult to suggest that the MPA causes increased biological parameters of targeted species and to assess predatory control and trophic cascade effects in areas where fishing pressure is reduced. It is therefor advisable to design MPAs so that their impacts can be scientifically evaluated in a proper fashion. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,Dec-23,,,114,,Mar. Environ.

When effective, LMMAs can encourage responsible fishing, strengthen compliance and improve adaptive capacity, and may help to safeguard food security, address coastal poverty and increase resource sustainability. However, evidence that LMMAs can achieve long-term biological goals is limited. Here, we used a six-year dataset and a before-after-control-impact sampling design to assess the biological effectiveness of five community-managed no take zones (CMNTZs) situated within the Velondriake LMMA in southwest Madagascar. Linear mixed-effect models revealed that the difference in biomass between control and reserve sites increased over time. Significant differences in biomass between CMNTZs and controls were only evident from year two onwards, with 189% more total biomass in CMNTZs than fished control sites by year six. There was no effect of CMNTZs on the biomass of fish families preferentially targeted by the local fishery, limiting the long-term fisheries benefits of this reserve network unless individual CMNTZs are made larger to accommodate the home ranges of fishery targeted families. There were however, reserve effects preventing the decline of untargeted fish families and species richness. Importantly, these CMNTZs delivered a conservation benefit that rivals government-run NTZs in the region, against a backdrop of severe biomass depletion, coastal poverty and human dependence on fishing - illustrating their suitability as a solution to marine resource depletion in developing tropical countries. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,192,,Ocean Coast.

There were 276 ecoregions in 32 biodiversity hotspots classified as containing terrestrial forests. When the first quartile of forest ecoregions was subset based on smallest extent of forest cover in protected areas, there were 69 rare forests identified within 20 biodiversity hotspots. Most rare forest ecoregions (45) occurred on islands or island archipelagos and 47 rare forest ecoregions contained less than 10 % forest cover in protected areas. San Félix-San Ambrosio Islands Temperate Forests, Tubuai Tropical Moist Forests, Maldives-Lakshadweep-Chagos Archipelago Tropical Moist Forests, and Yap Tropical Dry Forests were identified as the least protected and possibly most vulnerable forests within biodiversity hotspots. These ecoregions cover less than 500 km2, forest cover is less than 50 km2, and there are no protected areas.

Of the myriad of anthropogenic and natural threats to seabirds, one of the most critical global problems is incidental mortality in longline fisheries. Hesitance or failure by fishery managers and longline industries to adequately address this acute problem could result in the extinction of several albatross and petrel species within our lifetimes. 2. An integrated management approach is needed to comprehensively manage longline fisheries to address seabird bycatch. A review of relevant multilateral accords, declarations and actions by regional and international organizations reveals the need to augment international collaboration, especially to address pirate longline fishing. Management authorities and stakeholders need to collaborate to: promote adoption and compliance with effective legally binding accords that cover the ranges of all affected seabirds; ensure that all Range States and relevant distant water fishing nations become contracting parties to these accords; coordinate national implementation of the Food and Agriculture Organization's International Plan of Action on seabirds; set management goals; establish and implement policies to employ seabird deterrent measures; disseminate information on new deterrent measures; locally tailor seabird deterrent measures; standardize data reporting and establish a centralized data repository; coordinate research and monitoring; develop regional surveillance and enforcement systems; and augment less developed countries' capacity and resources to mitigate seabird and longline fishery interactions. 3. Establishing protected areas containing seabird colonies and adjacent waters within a nation's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) is potentially an expedient method to reduce interactions between seabirds and longline fisheries. However, establishing high seas marine protected areas to restrict longline fishing in seabird foraging areas, which would require extensive and dynamic boundaries and large buffer zones, may not be a viable short-term solution due to the long time it is anticipated it could take to resolve legal complications with international treaties, to achieve international consensus and political will, and to acquire requisite extensive resources for surveillance and enforcement. High seas marine protected areas may eventually become a feasible mechanism to address seabird bycatch if nations develop the will to close ocean areas to commercial fisheries to attempt to rehabilitate depleted pelagic fish stocks. 4. Direct involvement of longline industries, through partnerships with national governments and regional organizations, to develop seabird mitigation measures and policies prescribing the use of these measures, is critical. Direct involvement of stakeholders to find solutions to resource management problems leads to stakeholder groups taking ownership of and supporting rules. Bottom-up approaches are successful in changing interest groups' attitudes and behaviour, to maximize voluntary compliance and minimize conflict and resources required for enforcement. 5. Data gaps must be filled and scientific uncertainty addressed through multilateral collaboration. Research to develop and improve practicable mitigation measures is most urgently needed. Information on the status and trends of albatross populations, where albatrosses forage, the causes of population declines, seabird mortality rates and levels in each longline fishery, and the type of impacts from longlining on seabird populations is also needed. It is well documented that several seabird species are at risk of extinction, incidental bycatch in longline fisheries significantly contributes to many species' decline, and proven mitigation measures are available. Thus, while additional research is critically needed, we should not delay taking precautionary action to wait for additional information, but should immediately act to protect seabirds from the known acute threat of mortality in longline fisheries.

These contribute substantially toward meeting the area-based goal of Aichi Biodiversity Target 11 and to managing pelagic ecosystem pressures, including fishing. We assessed theoretical and empirical evidence for the achievement of ecological objectives by static and dynamic spatial management of pelagic fisheries. Exceptionally few studies have assessed ecological responses to MPAs that constrain pelagic fisheries, leaving substantial uncertainty over their efficacy. Assessments have provided a limited basis for causal inferences and have not evaluated whether other management tools would be more effective. Pelagic MPAs have relatively high promise to mitigate fisheries bycatch of species of conservation concern with “slow” life history traits and that form temporally and spatially predictable hotspots, and for some species, to protect habitats important for critical life history stages. It would be challenging to design MPAs to maintain absolute biomass levels of target stocks near targets and above limits: MPAs would need to be extensive to account for broad and variable distributions, and account for catch risk outside of the MPA, including from displaced fishing effort and fishing-the-line. For non-overexploited stocks, which is the status of most target pelagic species and their prey, there would likely be little response in absolute stock biomass to an MPA. While pelagic MPAs have a higher promise of increasing target stocks’ local abundance, evidence with a robust basis for inferring causality is needed. Reducing fishing mortality of prey species might not affect the biomass of their pelagic predators because prey species experience light fishing pressure and because there may be a weak correlation between the absolute abundance of forage fish and their predators. There is an especially limited basis for predicting the effects of MPAs on fisheries-induced evolution (FIE) in pelagic species. We describe how pelagic MPAs could be designed to achieve five ecological objectives without causing cross-taxa conflicts and exacerbating FIE. To fill substantial gaps in knowledge, we prescribe counterfactual-based modeling of time series data of standardized catch records to infer causation in assessments of ecological responses to pelagic MPAs. © 2019 The Authors.",,,,12,10,,Ecosphere,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell,,,,Aichi Biodiversity Target 11; BIGEYE TUNA; BLUEFIN TUNA; bycatch; CARETTA-CARETTA; CLIMATE-CHANGE; Convention on Biological Diversity conservation targets; dynamic spatial management; INDIAN-OCEAN; marine protected area (MPA); NINO SOUTHERN-OSCILLATION; NORTH PACIFIC; pelagic; reserve; SPATIAL MANAGEMENT; Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 15; TUNA THUNNUS-OBESUS; YELLOWFIN TUNA,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

During the past two decades, governments have attempted to establish protected areas in recognition of the limits to growth on islands and the negative impacts to the coastal zone from anthropogenic activities. However, protected areas have not always been successful because most models used by these governments to create protected areas have been flawed. This article presents a model to select and manage protected areas in the Pacific Islands that proposes two changes to traditional concepts of protected areas where the aims primarily have been to provide recreational opportunities, protect areas with aesthetics, and protect nature from humans. The two new concepts proposed by this model are community based decision making and permitting multiple purpose protected areas whose main goals are determined by the local community: (1) Representatives of interest groups and local level agencies collaborate to coordinate the processes to establish and administer protected areas, and to make decisions; (2) the model's process to select and manage a protected area considers the social, economic, environmental, and political context. Protected areas established using this model permit multiple uses that are compatible with the goals of the protected area. This method presents a comprehensive process to establish protected areas. Examples are drawn from several political entities of the Pacific Islands: the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, the Philippines, the Federated States of Micronesia, Guam, the Republic of Palau, Hawaii, and American Samoa. © 1997 Taylor & Francis.",,59-91,,1,25,,Coast.

The question of whether other co-occurring species of conservation concern may also benefit from this network, however, remains largely unknown. Here, we used a systematic approach (MARXAN) for i) evaluating if the current Natura 2000 network in the Alboran Sea (western Mediterranean Sea), initially proposed to protect the common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) and priority habitats, is also spatially protecting the endangered common dolphin (Delphinus delphis), and ii) identifying additional marine areas that should be protected to reach adequate conservation targets for the common dolphin. While the current Natura 2000 network encompass ca. 22% of predicted abundances for common dolphins, this percentage might be enhanced by protecting coastal areas nearby the Strait of Gibraltar. However, dolphins and fisheries largely overlap spatially nearby the coastline, and only segregate in offshore areas that represent the marginal distribution of the species. Thus, conservation decision-makers must achieve a trade-off between cetacean conservation and fisheries by combining an area-based approach (i.e., new protected areas close to the Strait of Gibraltar) together with a basin-wide threat-based approach (e.g., regulation of fisheries). © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,168,,Mar.

Concretely, the Mediterranean Sea is facing a huge demand of resources and marine activities while hosting abundant and unique biodiversity. It is considered an important elasmobranch hotspot where seventy-two elasmobranch species are present in the basin. Despite the recognised importance of elasmobranchs as umbrella species, to date only a small number of marine protected areas have been designated towards their protection. The paucity of spatially-explicit abundance data on elasmobranchs often precludes the designation of these areas to protect these marine predators. Here, we aimed to identify marine areas to protect elasmobranch species by means of a systematic spatial planning approach. We first estimated the spatial distribution of five elasmobranch species (three sharks and two rays) in the western Mediterranean Sea and then applied Marxan decision support tools to find priority marine conservation areas. We found that the five elasmobranchs are distributed in coastal and slope areas of the southern waters of the study area while in the northern region they are abundant in the continental slope and towards offshore waters. Conservation priority areas were identified in the southern part of the western Mediterranean. Adding more complex cost layers and zoning to the analysis did not alter conservation priority areas, confirming such areas are highly consistent and highly important for elasmobranch protection. The marine conservation priority areas identified here can contribute to designate a proactive area-based protection strategy towards elasmobranch conservation, related species and the habitats that they depend in the western Mediterranean Sea. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,160,,Mar.

In marine systems, where threats and biodiversity are inherently multidimensional and include vertical depth gradients, the designation of protected areas can be more challenging than in the terrestrial realm. Here, we aimed to evaluate the representation equality of biogeochemical regions at different depths in the Mediterranean Sea as a surrogate for biodiversity. We conducted a gap-analysis evaluating the current extent and coverage of protected areas in the Mediterranean Sea biodiversity hotspot to achieve an equitable representation and conservation strategy for the basin. We used biogeochemical regions across different depths, which allow more complex 3D marine spatial planning that includes spatial complexity of marine systems. A total of 60 biogeochemical regions distributed across three bathomes (spaces determined by depth; i.e. epipelagic, mesopelagic, and bathypelagic zones) and the seafloor were assessed. We found that biogeochemical regions in the Mediterranean Sea were not equally protected across bathomes, and that global conservation targets were not met. The bathypelagic bathome had the lowest representation in the Mediterranean Sea marine protected area (MPA) network, as well as the lowest protection equality. The sub-basins with highest protection included the Algero-Provençal basin and the Tyrrhenian Sea. These two sub-basins were the only ones that passed the Aichi protection target of 10%, while all others were lower than the target. The Ionian Sea was identified as the most highly diverse sub-basin regarding biogeochemical regions but with the least protection and with low conservation equality, making this sub-basin a high priority for conservation. Amongst countries, non-European Mediterranean countries had lower values of protection and conservation equality metrics. In general, the bathypelagic bathome was found as the least protected, the most fragmented, and with the lowest protection equality, thus its protection should be enhanced through all the Mediterranean Sea. Decision makers in the Mediterranean can apply the gap-analysis approach presented here as a useful starting point for improving protection equality in the region, incorporating these metrics in the evaluation of new proposed protected areas and sites for conservation. © 2021",,,,,211,,Ocean Coast.

However, seasonal data on the distribution of marine wildlife to inform protected areas are generally scarce worldwide, especially for cetaceans, which makes dynamic solutions difficult to implement. Furthermore, conservation objectives are often set at the level of individual species rather than at the community level, despite many species having similar or overlapping habitat requirements, and a comparison of the effectiveness of mobile vs. static Marine Protected Areas options has rarely been done. Systematic conservation planning was used to identify priority areas of cetacean biodiversity in the north-east Atlantic accounting for seasonal changes in distribution. Consistent hotspots across seasons at a community level, in particular along the shelf edge, suggest that fixed priority areas for cetacean biodiversity may be appropriate. The area required for protection to meet conservation targets (i.e. 20% of a population occurring within a protected area) is minimized when considering populations at basin scale rather than national level. Highly mobile megafauna normally exploit persistent and predictable oceanographic features, so a habitat suitability rather than a jurisdiction-based approach is more appropriate. © 2023 The Authors.

Within this context, the objective of this research was to analyze livelihoods and food security of the Caiçaras based on a case study in southeastern Brazil, emphasizing the use of food plants that are cultivated and harvested within protected areas. Using an integrative approach of human ecology and ethnobotany, methods included free listing, 24-hour recall, and food storage analysis.

Challenges in management have been attributed, amongst other reasons, to the initial process of Marine Protected Area (MPA) creation. In this context, the objective of this study is to describe the creation processes of Brazilian MPAs, via the “step zero” analysis. We analyzed eight MPAs through interviews with key informants. The main lessons learned from this study, is that the process of creation did not take into account fundamental aspects such as previous studies about local socioecological dynamic and citizen participation in the decision making processes, foreseen by the norms and guidelines of the Brazilian system. These variables, in turn, may explain why MPAs often demonstrate challenges in the management process. Furthermore, describing Brazil's experiences with creating MPAs, we believe we are contributing to the development of the step zero analysis, as well as to the decision making in the creation of MPAs in the national context. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,120,,Mar.

Although there have been a number of efforts aimed at aggregating biodiversity data, information on the distribution of many taxa is still scanty (i.e. the Wallacean Shortfall). In this study, we use a large database, including over 19 million species occurrence records, to identify knowledge gaps in biodiversity inventories for butterfly records at a global level. Bayesian hierarchical spatial models were used to quantify the relationship between gaps in inventory completeness and the density of roads, protected areas and elevational range, the former variable being a proxy for accessibility, the latter two for attractiveness to recorders. Our results show that despite >100 years of butterfly sampling, knowledge of the distribution of butterflies is still limited in tropical areas. The results revealed that gaps in butterfly inventories are largely concentrated in areas of low elevational range, low density of protected areas and low road density. We conclude that the Wallacean Shortfall is a problem even for one of the best studied insect groups. In the light of these data limitations, we discuss prospects for filling gaps in butterfly inventories at the global scale within relatively short time frames. We argue that a combination of citizen science and quantitative tools may help to fill knowledge gaps and inform conservation decisions. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,289-295,,,236,,Biol.

Fires in tropical forests, though not devastating on a large scale as compared to large and infrequent fires in boreal or Mediterranean systems, still cause loss to biodiversity and economic and monetary value. In India, human-induced forest fires increasingly affect legally protected nature conservation areas. An array of satellite sensors that are now available can be deployed to monitor such events on a global and local scale. The present study uses night-time Advanced Along Track Scanning Radiometer (A)ATSR satellite data from the last nine years to identify high fire-prone zones, fire affected areas in protected zones and the distribution of these incidents in relation to bio-geographic zones. Central India, with its vegetation type that is just right for fire ignition and spread, was observed to be the most severely affected area with maximum fire incidences. The bio-geographic zone comprising this area-such as the Deccan peninsula, which includes provinces like Central Highlands, Eastern Highlands, Central Plateau and Chhota Nagpur-was observed to be the most affected, accounting for approximately 36% of the total fire occurrences during the period 1997-2005. In protected areas, 778 fire incidents were observed within the last eight years. Comparison of (A)ATSR fire locations with MODIS active fire data for the Western Ghats (mainly of tropical evergreen forests and savannahs) and the Eastern Ghats (tropical deciduous) showed a spatial agreement of 72% with a minimum distance between the two products of 100 m. This study focuses on regions in India that are vulnerable to forest fires during specific time-frames and appraises the situation with an aim to minimize such incidents, if not completely stop the fire spread and its consequent destruction and loss. Our main objective is to understand seasonal and spatial variation in fire pattern and to identify zones of frequent burning. © 2010 by the authors; licensee Molecular Diversity Preservation International, Basel, Switzerland.",,591-610,,2,2,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,(A)ATSR; Anthropogenic pressure; Anthropogenic pressures; Biodiversity; Biogeographic zones; Conservation; Data Processing; Deforestation; Developing countries; Disturbance regime; Fires; Forest Fires; India; MODIS; Radar; Radiometers; Radiometry; Tropics,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A multitude of ABMTs exists in marine areas within and beyond national jurisdiction, ranging from tools for the regulation of specific human activities (e.g. fisheries, shipping, or mining) to cross-sectoral tools (e.g. such as marine protected areas, MPAs, and marine spatial planning, MSP). By applying expert elicitation and reviewing scientific and grey literature we evaluate the contribution of ABMTs to sustainable development goals (SDGs) as set out under the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, including for SDG 14 that directly addresses the conservation and sustainable use of oceans, seas, and marine resources. We find that fisheries-related and conservation-related ABMTs, and MSP offer the greatest potential contributions to SDG 14 and to SDGs in general. Moreover, there is high complementarity and synergy among different ABMTs for most SDG 14 targets and other SDGs, with the exception of SDG target 14.6 Prohibit fisheries subsidies and SDG 7 Affordable and clean energy. We find that some ABMTs contribute directly to goal attainment, while others contribute in more nuanced or even unexpected ways. Furthermore, context-specific factors that relate to political and legal factors, enforceability, transparency, governance structure, and inclusivity are crucial for unlocking the full potential of ABMTs of attaining multiple SDGs, as shown through examples. The major challenge to face in the next decade is ensuring durable and equitable outcomes from ABMT implementation by coordinating ABMT initiatives established by different organisations and responsible authorities. It is also critical that outcomes are monitored and evaluated across environmental, social, economic, governance, and health dimensions, with indicators addressing management effectiveness and not only ABMT area coverage. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,330,,J.

Data were generated through an internal expert elicitation. Experts, initially trained in the data analysis and related protocol, contributed to the data production because of their specific knowledge and experience in ocean management. This dataset represents a unique source of information for advancing research about monitoring and assessment of the achievement of sustainable development goals that encompasses different types of ABMTs. © 2021",,,,,40,,Data Brief,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Inc.,,,,Deep seabed mining; Fisheries management; International and regional agreements; Marine protected areas; Marine spatial planning; Shipping; Underwater cultural heritage,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Among the quarries active in the past, the most important were the Portoro marble ones. Portoro (also called ""Gold and black"") is a unique dimensional stone exploited only in the La Spezia area, formed by a seamy polychrome limestone, with black background and yellow-gold veins more or less wide and bent. From a commercial point of view Portoro is a marble while for geologist it is a limestone. The presence of several protected areas nearby the quarries contributed, in recent years, to a significant increase in tourists that can enjoy the beauty of the area and moreover the special landscape offered by the quarries. Signs left by quarry activity are both in the landscape and in industrial architecture. Most tourists today ignore these geological and human peculiarities caused by the absence of any action aimed to enhancing this kind of entertainment. This study aims to propose, on one hand, a kind of the rehabilitation (or reuse) and a safety disposition of some quarries not used anymore and, on the other, to highlight an activity once widespread in this area that can still offer to tourists enchanting landscape viewpoints of one of the most beautiful area of Italy, maintaining important traces of industrial archaeology.

Although ABNJ encompass nearly half the planet's surface, biological diversity found in these areas remains largely unprotected. Mounting pressures generated by the escalation of human activities in ABNJ threaten vital ecosystem services and the fragile web of life that supports them. Marine protected areas (MPAs) are widely acknowledged as an important tool for the conservation of biological diversity. Currently less than 1% of ABNJ are protected, with the vast majority of MPAs located in waters within national jurisdiction. The existing legal framework for protection and sustainable use of ABNJ lacks common goals, principles or standards, multi-sectoral coordination and comprehensive geographic coverage to ensure conservation or good governance grounded in science-based decision-making, transparency, accountability and effective enforcement. This paper highlights the urgency and importance of protecting the last conservation frontier on Earth. Key lessons for conservation in ABNJ can be learned from regional, cross-boundary and national experiences shared during the high seas governance workshop at the IUCN World Parks Congress in Sydney, Australia in November 2014. The intent of this paper is to inform the deliberations now underway in the United Nations General Assembly to develop a new legally binding international instrument for the conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity in ABNJ. It also aims to encourage further initiatives to protect and preserve our last conservation frontier using currently available mechanisms and powers consistent with international law.

A public-private partnership (the MLPA Initiative) completed four regional public MPA planning processes characterized by robust stakeholder contributions and the incorporation of best readily available science. Prior to enactment of the MLPA in 1999, less than 3% of California state waters were in MPAs, and most of those MPAs were small and lacked clear objectives. By 2013, approximately 16% of state waters will be in 124 MPAs that represent and replicate most marine and estuarine habitats and are designed to be ecologically-connected. The redesigned statewide network of MPAs improves marine ecosystem protection in California, advanced the science and practice of designing MPA networks, and increased the awareness and capacity of stakeholders, scientists and decision-makers for marine spatial planning. The public planning effort took almost seven years and significant financial investment (approximately $19.5 million in private charitable foundation funds and $18.5 million in public funds). Not all stakeholders were pleased with the outcomes and the planning processes faced many challenges. While the design of the MPA network aimed to meet science and feasibility guidelines, final decisions on MPAs in each region reflected tradeoffs needed to garner public acceptance and support for implementation. The MLPA Initiative offers some key lessons about implementing policy through a public planning process. While California is developing mechanisms for assessing effectiveness of the MPA network in coming years, including establishing a MPA Monitoring Enterprise and a process for periodic review and adaptive management of MPAs, significant challenges remain for effective implementation. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,90-101,,,74,,Ocean Coast.

This alliance gathers coastal heathlands under marine influences whose physiognomy is marked by prostrate or halo-anemomorphic chamaephytes. All Atlantic heathlands are included into habitats of European community interest which justify the designation of Natura 2000 sites. Within these protected areas, heathland conservation or restoration management issues raise the question of the choice of nature and frequency of management methods. For that, it seems important to understand the dynamics of cliff-top coastal heathlands. Stable heathlands, considered as permanent vegetation of primary character, can be managed without any intervention, while heathlands characterized by a progressive dynamic may be subject to interventionist management. The aim of this work is to present the main determinant abiotic and biotic factors driving the cliff-top coastal heathlands. Human uses may influence the composition and structure of these vegetation. This approach helps to assess the primary or secondary character of cliff-top coastal heathlands vegetation, their stability or dynamic. This article clarifies the notions of primitive, primary and secondary coastal heathlands. It proposes criteria to differentiate stable heathlands and unstable heathlands which are characterized by a progressive dynamic towards coastal scrublands or forest: abiotic conditions, floristic combination, physiognomy. The synphytosociological methodology is useful for establishing the typology of the series, permaseries and minoriseries, in which the different types of cliff-top coastal heathlands are included.

The length of time that a closure is in place can play a determinative role in the effectiveness of the closure as a means of restoring stock biomass and diversity. For species that are slow growing and slow to reproduce, closures shorter than a decade are unlikely to be sufficient for the effects of restoration to accrue. New Zealand has two legislative mechanisms specifically designed to establish temporary closures: sections 186A and 186B of the Fisheries Act 1996. These provisions were created to respond to localised depletion and to provide for the use and management practices of Maori (New Zealand's Indigenous People). There is currently a two-year time limit on temporary closures applied for by the community. By defining a time limit for temporary closures legislators have failed to account for the ecology of many of the species targeted for protection that require longer periods of protection for restoration. Furthermore, the way in which the final decision making power is vested with central government is also inconsistent with the original purpose of the provisions. An amendment to the temporary closure provisions is suggested to provide greater flexibility for users and to better recognise the non-commercial fishing rights provided for by the Fisheries Act 1996, of local communities seeking to apply this tool. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,39-45,,,61,,Mar.

In 2019, a major oil spill from an unknown source reached the Brazilian margin and strongly affected tropical marine habitats with high biodiversity. It is therefore important to establish a quick and accessible approach to assist decision-makers for oil spill responses. Based on current Brazilian legislation, only very specific companies (such as organized ports, port facilities, platforms and their auxiliary facilities) are obliged to maintain marine oil spill response structures. This paper aims to develop an approach for mapping seafloor sensitivity to oil spills for continental shelf areas with limited resources and materials. The study was conducted using a pre-existing bathymetric dataset, at mega- and meso-habitat scales. The assessed area extends over 933 km2, between the 10 and 90 m isobaths, comprising tropical marine areas of intense maritime traffic due to the strategic location for important international routes and also due to the presence of ports, terminals and shipyards. From the megahabitat-scale analyses (30 m resolution grid), the areas with greatest topographic complexity were selected for subsequent detailed analysis and the development of a seafloor sensitivity index at a mesohabitat-scale (10 m resolution grid). The results revealed that 12.7% of the area was classified at a high seafloor sensitivity index (SIseafloor), 28.7% was classified at relatively moderate sensitivity, and 58% was classified at low sensitivity. The seafloor sensitivity methodology presented here can be easily applied to other locations to prepare recovery operations, monitoring plans, and for other forms of environmental planning. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,266,,Cont.

The need for connecting protected areas via existing habitat centers, or relatively undisturbed core areas, is greater than ever as exurbanization expands. Our objective was to make use of nationally available data sets on roads as well as information derived from satellite imagery, including impervious cover of the built environment and forest canopy density, to identify core habitat of the northeastern and mid-Atlantic USA. The identified core habitat areas, which covered 73,730 km2 across 1177 discrete units, were stratified in terms of land ownership and management, and then analyzed in a landscape context using connectivity metrics derived from graph theory. The connectivity analysis made use of a suitability surface, derived from the land cover information, which approximated the costs incurred by hypothetical animals traversing the landscape. We show that protected areas are frequently identified as core habitat but are typically isolated, albeit sometimes buffered by adjacent multi-use lands (such as state or national forests). Over one third of the core habitat we identified has no protection, and another 42% is subject to motorized recreation or timber extraction. We provide maps showing the relative importance of core habitat areas for potentially connecting existing protected areas, and also provide an example of the vulnerability of connectivity to projected future residential development around one greater park ecosystem. © 2009 Elsevier Inc.

No studies have comprehensively assessed their ability to provide short-term fisheries benefits across the entire harvest regime. We present a novel analytical framework to guide a meta-analysis and assist future research in conceptualizing and assessing the potential of PHCs to deliver benefits for multiple fisheries-related objectives. Ten PHCs met our selection criteria and on average, they provided a 48% greater abundance and 92% greater biomass of targeted fishes compared with areas open to fishing prior to being harvested. This translated into tangible harvest benefits, with fishers removing 21% of the abundance and 49% of the biomass within PHCs, resulting in few post-harvest protection benefits. When PHCs are larger, closed for longer periods or well enforced, short-term fisheries benefits are improved. However, an increased availability of fish within PHCs leads to greater removal during harvests. Synthesis and applications. Periodically harvested closures (PHCs) can provide short-term fisheries benefits. Use of the analytical framework presented here will assist in determining long-term fisheries and conservation benefits. We recommend PHCs be closed to fishing for as long as possible, be as large as possible, that compliance be encouraged via community engagement and enforcement, and strict deadlines/goals for harvesting set to prevent overfishing. © 2017 The Authors.

In the majority of trials (76%) volunteers performed with an accuracy and consistency of 50-80%, comparable to the performance of conservation volunteer divers on precise transects in other projects. The recruitment of recreational divers involved the main diving and tour operators in Italy, a popular scientific magazine, and mass media. During the four-year study, 3825 divers completed 18 757 questionnaires, corresponding to 13 539 diving hours. The volunteersightings-based index showed that in the monitored area the biodiversity status did not change significantly within the project time scale, but there was a significant negative correlation with latitude, suggesting improved quality in the southernmost areas. This trend could be related to the presence of stressors in the northern areas and has been supported by investigations performed by the Italian Ministry of the Environment. The greatest limitation with using volunteers to collect data was the uneven spatial distribution of samples. The benefits were the considerable amounts of data collected over short time periods and at low costs. The successful development of citizen-based monitoring programs requires open-mindedness in the academic community; advantages of citizen involvement in research are not only adding large data sets to the ecological knowledge base but also aiding in the environmental education of the public. © 2010 by the Ecological Society of America.",,2170-2187,,8,20,,Ecol.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) that incorporate traditional beliefs about reef tenure are generally more successful in reaching conservation goals and ensuring the participation of local fishermen on vulnerable tropical reef systems. Fiji possesses a unique system of traditional reef management in which local clans or villages, called mataqali, control individual units of a reef, known as qoliqoli, and make independent management decisions based on traditional beliefs and conservation concerns. This is an example of a system, known as customary marine tenure, which has attracted interest from conservation scientists hoping to set up MPAs in vulnerable regions. As one example of this grassroots participation, Nagigi village on the Fijian island of Vanua Levu has expressed interest in setting up an MPA in part of its qoliqoli because of concerns about overfishing. In response to this interest, we took a two-pronged approach to assessing Nagigi's fishery status and conservation needs, first conducting a fishery-independent species survey using destructive sampling and then focusing on fisheries targets identified through fisher interviews. These interviews allowed us to identify heavily targeted species, assess villagers' understanding of reef dynamics over 30 or 40 years of fisheries expansion, and evaluate village support and expectations for a proposed conservation program. Based on our findings we recommend a temporary closure to be in effect for at least three years, allowing one of the more important fishery targets, Lethrinus harak (Forsskĺl, 1775; Lethrinidae), to complete at least one generation within the reserve. The methodology of matching the proposed marine protected area with the life histories and ecologies of heavily targeted species identified through fisherman and -woman interviews can offer a template for future conservation projects that seek to synthesize indigenous peoples' needs and knowledge with ecological data. © 2014 Golden et al.",,,,5,9,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,adult; animal; Animals; article; attitude; Attitude; community ecology; conservation biology; Conservation of Natural Resources; coral reef; Coral Reefs; Data Collection; demography; environmental protection; female; Fiji; fish; Fisheries; fisherman; fishery; fishery management; fishing; history; human; human impact (environment); Humans; information processing; interview; Interviews as Topic; Lethrinus harak; LIFE-HISTORY; male; MARINE RESOURCE-MANAGEMENT; middle aged; nonhuman; PATTERNS; POPULATIONS; Residence Characteristics; resource management; risk; Risk; risk assessment; sex difference; species conservation; species identification; TRADITIONAL ECOLOGICAL KNOWLEDGE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Aim of the article is to detail the dependence of the massif state on anthropogenic stresses during the development of ore deposits by underground method. Methods. Compliance of technologies for the development of mineral deposits with the principles of nature management is ensured by studying the dynamics of changes in the parameters of ore-containing massifs. Infrastructure facilities of mining enterprises and the Earth’s surface are subject to protection from induced seismic vibrations, especially during mining operations in the unique conditions of protected areas. In the field of extraction of natural resources of the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania with such conditions, a number of geophysical studies have been applied and interpreted. Results. Using the possibilities of mathematical modeling by the finite element method, the operation mechanism of compressive stresses in the zone of their interface of the ore whole with the host array is determined. Quantitative criteria for assessing the state of the developed space, depending on its filling or isolation, are obtained. It is proposed to assess the hazard of destruction of the Earth’s surface in relation to the maximum stresses in the model to the tensile strength of the material. The results of modeling anthropogenic stresses on low-molecular materials are presented. It is established that the maximum stresses in the elem ents of the cleaning chamber develop at the maximum value of the lateral expansion coefficient. It is shown that the filling of the developed chamber space reduces the stress level depending on the strength of the filler. It is determined that in the case of the option with isolation of the developed space without filling, the stress concentration for these conditions is maximum. The information obtained on the behavior of the ore-containing massif is relevant for the design of mining operations during the resumption of mining operations of the Sadon mines, as well as for deposits with similar conditions of localization of mineralization, both when using traditional technologies and when extracting metals with new promising technologies with drilling at the site of localization of mineralization. © 2023, Geophysical Institute of the Vladikavkaz Scientific Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Stercorarius maccormicki (hereinafter – south polar skua) are predators that can threaten populations of bird species of the orders Sphenisciformes and Procellariiformes. At many places in Antarctica, abundance trends for the skua are not known or have not been updated. This study is an attempt to answer the question: how did a south polar skua population react to changes in environmental conditions during 1956– 2013? The objectives of the study was (1) to establish the dynamics of the breeding skua population on the Haswell Islands, i.e. Haswell Island and the small islands of the Haswell Archipelago during 1956–2013, and (2) to explain the reasons of the changes in the studied population. A secondary research question was whether there were changes in the spatial distribution of the breeding skua population on the Haswell Archipelago during the study period? The studies have been carried out on the Haswell Archipelago (Davis Sea), mainly in Antarctic Specially Protected Area ?127 «Haswell Island and adjacent emperor penguin rookery on fast ice». Ground count was the main method for determining the size of bird colonies. South polar skua bred on 3–8 islands of the Haswell Archipelago. In the study period, the population size of the south polar skua has changed on the Haswell Archipelago. A decrease in the number of individuals (-52%) was observed between 1956–1957 and 1966–1967 breeding seasons. Between 1966–1967 and 1999–2000 breeding seasons, the skua population declined by 30.7% and reached the lowest value of 18 pairs. Population growth (344.4%) was recorded between 1999–2000 and 2009–2010 breeding seasons, with an increase of 33.8% and reaching the maximum value (83 pairs) in 2010– 2011 breeding season. By 2012–2013 breeding season, the south polar skua population has declined by 13.2%. On Haswell Island, between 1956–1957 and 2012–2013 breeding seasons, there was a change in skua abundance that was similar to the change in the total breeding population on Haswell Archipelago during the entire period. On the small islands of the Haswell Archipelago, the number of breeding south polar skuas declined (-80%) between 1956–1957 and 1962–1963 breeding seasons. The breeding seasons of 1962–1963, 1966–1967 and 1999–2000 were characterised by the lowest number of individuals. Between 1999–2000 and 2009–2010 breeding seasons, the number of south polar skuas increased by 400%. A decrease in abundance (-41.6%) occurred between 2009–2010 and 2010–2011, followed by the consequent increase (by 36.3%) by 2012–2013 breeding season. During the study period, changes in the abundance of south polar skuas on the Haswell Archipelago were independent of changes in average daily November temperatures between 1956–1957 and 2012–2013 breeding seasons (Mann-Whitney test U = 0, p = 0.0017, n = 7 (asymptotic (2-sided))), when they were laying eggs and heating them. The number of south polar skuas changed independently of changes in the number of individuals of their prey, represented by Aptenodytes forsteri, Pygoscelis adeliae, and Fulmarus glacialoides (respectively U = 49, p = 0.0006, n = 7; U = 16, p = 0.029, n = 4; U = 16, p = 0.029, n = 4 (asymptotic (2-sided))). The high mortality of eggs, chicks and local weather conditions could influence the breeding success of the south polar skua, which could have a delayed effect on their long-term dynamics. Human activities have influenced the skua population, but have not been studied quantitatively. On the Haswell Archipelago, the reasons for historical changes in abundance of the breeding skua population remain largely unclear. © 2024, Fund for Support and Development of Protected Areas """"Bear Land"""".

Our study focuses on a rice-Pantanal wetland agricultural system within Brazil, where our goals were: i) to quantify the impact of rice paddies on taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic diversity metrics of small mammals as biodiversity indicators, ii) to compare diversity indices based on incidence and abundance data. We carried out a thorough assessment to sample small mammal species in both the rice paddy and the adjacent legal reserve by employing a multiple diversity metrics approach. We captured the small mammals until reaching saturation on the species accumulation curve over 12,774 trap nights, resulting in 447 individuals, 10 species, including seven rodents and three marsupial species. Abundance-based beta-diversity between rice-paddy and forest reserve were higher (0.95) than incidence-based estimate (0.33). The species composition differed between the legal reserve (8 spp.) and the rice paddy (7 spp.), with the reserve exhibiting higher taxonomic diversity values compared to the rice paddy. In terms of functional and phylogenetic diversity, overall, the rice paddy exhibited higher values for the incidence-based metrics and the abundance-based metrics indicated that the reserve was more diverse. We conclude that Neotropical Pantanal rice fields retain substantial functional and phylogenetic diversities, providing suitable habitats for species thriving in open and semi-aquatic environments. Simultaneously, the legal reserve retains an essential aspect of functional diversity, when considering abundance, needed to maintain ecosystem resilience and stability. Proper abundance estimation is thus a key parameter for accurately evaluating the role of agricultural landscapes as biodiversity conservation opportunities beyond protected areas. Abundance-based indices should be used to correctly evaluate the contribution of each habitat to agroecosystem sustainability, especially in seasonal or extreme event-prone environments. © 2024",,,,,163,,Ecol.

Priority areas for blue whales were located primarily on the Scotian Shelf and along the south shelf break in waters off Newfoundland. Priority areas for northern bottlenose whales were identified primarily in areas along the edges of the eastern Scotian Shelf and the Newfoundland and Labrador Shelves, in submarine canyons, and deep basins. The SDM results and the tools presented in this study indicate that there are few conservation areas in eastern Canada that currently protect whales at risk, and that priority areas for blue and northern bottlenose whales overlap with regions where noise-producing activities (shipping and seismic exploration) occur. This study also highlighted large gaps in the cetacean data related to human activities (e.g. seismic survey lines are outdated and recent information from the past 5 to 10 yr is not available). The SDM approach developed in this study can be used as an iterative, adaptive process by including updated data as it becomes available, further refining and validating the SDM results and thereby improve our understanding of the distribution of cetaceans and noise- producing activities in eastern Canada. © The authors and Fisheries and Oceans Canada 2017.",,437-458,,1,32,,Endanger.

The objective of this study was to identify ecosystem disturbances at a site of interest to recommend strategies to improve coastal zone management. We chose the Mexican Caribbean as a case study, because its biological and cultural complexity render it an interesting location from a coastal management point of view. The PRISMA framework was used to conduct a systematic literature review to identify the ecosystem disturbances that affect this area, as well as the main causes and consequences of these disturbances. Additionally, we discuss how disturbances and their impacts, as screened through PRISMA, can be incorporated into a coastal zone management framework. Results need to consider the limitations associated with using this technique e.g., the degree of impact from a current disturbance may vary from that reported in an earlier publication.

These challenges are rooted in the extractive and linear economic model we have globally adopted, in which economic development is intertwined with the destruction of nature. Europe has recently responded politically by adopting the European Green Deal with a set of policies aimed at transforming the EU economy envisaging a future with no net carbon emissions and where economic growth is decoupled from resource use. Despite the dire state of the ocean and the urgency to implement effective solutions, we continue to witness the loss of nature and, with it, the loss of current and future economic and social value. Marine protected areas (MPAs) are one of the most effective solutions to address these challenges. There is, however, the need to clarify what these area-based management tools are, how they can provide benefits, what conditions must be met to ensure they are effective, and how a strategy can be adopted to increase the breadth, speed and success of efficient MPAs to save what is left in the ocean, allow ecosystems to recover, and build sustainable jobs and economic growth. © The Author(s) 2023.",,131-141,,,Part F2766,,,,,,,,Springer,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Sustain.

Systematic planning of marine protected areas (MPAs) is of paramount importance in alleviating conflicts between humans and the sea. Existing approaches, however, merely integrate both ecological and anthropogenic factors for multiple conservation purposes. By combining the three main anthropogenic impact factors with two main ecological importance factors, this study used a GIS-based AHP-OWA method to identify different levels of priority protection for MPAs in Zhejiang, China. Our results proved that: 1) the multi-objective MPA siting issues can be addressed by the GIS-based AHP-OWA method through scenario simulation; 2) the best locations for MPAs are in the northeast, central, and southern marine areas of Zhejiang; 3) considering the trade-off degree, spatial conservation efficiency, and spatial heterogeneity, an optimized MPA siting scheme can be developed for decision-makers. The proposed MPA siting method and case study may provide an effective technical reference for solving regional marine spatial planning (MSP) issues in the future. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,337,,J.

Limitations based on annual stock assessments and total allowable catches calculated from these assessments can be dangerous, and marine protected areas (MPAs) are one tool to limit exploitation rates directly even when total stock size is highly uncertain (Walters, 2000). Contrary to other management strategies usually involving a suite of regulations (e.g., gear and vessel restrictions, minimum sizes, catch and effort limits, prohibited species), MPAs are easier to enforce and can be more easily understood by the public and the fishing industry (Guidetti and Claudet, 2010). Within a fisheries management context the main expected outcome of MPAs is yield enhancement, but MPAs also hold the potential to reduce impacts of fishing on marine ecosystems and to establish undisturbed, reference locations for scientific studies (Fogarty et al., 2000). However, creating an MPA reduces the area that can be fished, thus potentially reducing yield. The question is therefore whether the yield in the area remaining open will increase enough to offset losses from the closed area (Hilborn et al., 2004; Jones, 2008; see also Chapter 4), and whether the displaced fishing effort reduces the sustainability of remaining fishing grounds (Hilborn et al., 2004). These concerns would be lessened if total catch was reduced by a percentage equivalent to the habitat protected within MPAs (Parrish, 1999). During recent years there has been a proliferation of studies assessing the efficacy of MPAs in rebuilding exploited populations within their boundaries. Most of them document increases in target species abundance, biomass, individual size, and egg production following the reduction or cessation of fishing (see reviews by Fogarty et al., 2000; Sánchez-Lizaso et al., 2000; National Research Council, 2001; Russ, 2002; Claudet et al., 2008; Molloy et al., 2009; Claudet et al., 2010; see also Chapter 2). However, while there is general agreement about the potential of MPAs as conservation tools, attention to their effects on fisheries has grown particularly controversial (Hilborn et al., 2004). Controversy is nurtured by the above-mentioned concerns of loss of fishing grounds and impacts of effort displacement, although the scarcity of empirical studies rigorously evaluating such effects is also slowing down progress in the research and implementation of MPAs with fishery management objectives (Russ, 2002; Willis et al., 2003a; Hilborn, 2006; see also Chapter 7). © Cambridge University Press 2011.",,72-98,,,,,,,,,,,Cambridge University Press,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Marine Protected Areas: A Multidisciplinary Approach DOI: 10.1017/CBO9781139049382.006,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Consequently outdoor recreational activity is increasing and diversifying. While Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are valuable for mitigating anthropogenic impacts, recreational uses are rarely monitored and studied, resulting in a lack of knowledge on users' practices, motivation and impacts. Based on boat counts and interview data collected in New Caledonia, we i) explored factors affecting user practices and motivations, ii) constructed fine-scale pressure indices covering activities and associated behaviors, and iii) assessed the relationships between user practices and site selection. User practices were found to depend on protection status, boat type and user characteristics. Pressure indices were higher within no-take MPAs, except for fishing. We found significant relationships between user practices and settings characteristics. In the context of increasing recreational uses, these results highlight options for managing such uses through settings management without jeopardizing the social acceptance of MPAs or the attainment of conservation goals. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,170-185,,,200,,J.

Our analysis builds on data collected over a ten-year period during three year-round surveys to appraise changes in recreational boating activities in coral ecosystems. Results show that the number of boaters has greatly increased, particularly so within MPAs during weekends and the warm season, when peaks in boat numbers have become more frequent. We also observed that the number of anchored boats has increased over the period. These changes may be resulting in biophysical impacts that could be detrimental to conservation objectives in MPAs.

High-power, low-frequency sonar systems can produce noise levels that impact marine mammals based on increasingly evidence from strandings and behavioral research [1]. Various governmental regulatory measures are currently in place to mitigate negative impacts from anthropogenic activities on marine mammals, including those associated with noise. These regulations were developed to implement statutory guidelines established under the US Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) [2], the US Endangered Species Act (ESA) [3], and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) [4]. In late September 2006, we will conduct an experiment to characterize the acoustic signatures of two commonly used mid-frequency seismic systems under realistic survey conditions. These systems are used primarily on the inner/middle continental shelf because of their high resolution and ability to penetrate thick, uncosolidated sedimentary sequences. System 1 is a surface-towed, catamaran-mounted boomer developed by Applied Acoustics Engineering (AAE). System 2 is an AAE near-surface towed mini-sparker (squid). Distances to the 160 dB isopleth have been determined using simple spherical spreading models for each system. The theoretical distances are 500 m and 550 m for the boomer and mini-sparker, respectively. The acoustic signatures of the two sources will be characterized by supplementing an acoustic monitoring array deployed by the Gerry E. Studds Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary (SBNMS) whose primary purpose is to monitor ambient noise and vessel traffic and record whale vocalizations throughout Sanctuary waters. We will select which ARUs from the array utilize in the experiment to generate data from two different substrate types and to minimize acoustic contact with the protected marine mammals known to frequent Sanctuary waters. The additional ARUs will be deployed in close proximity to the chosen ARUs' locations. Each of the ARUs and their hydrophones were calibrated by the United States Navy before deployment. Our experimental design consists of survey transits over the ARUs. Timings of each survey transect will be recorded to correlate acoustical records from each of the four ARUs in the study. Additionally, all ARUs in the SBNMS array will be examined for the signature of the seismic systems at the times of survey transects. The goals of this experiment are to: 1) describe the acoustic signature of each seismic system; 2) determine the distance from each source to isopleths of interest; 3) generate empirical estimates of horizontal sound spreading for these surface-towed systems in shallow water; 4) determine how far away from these sources their signatures are detectable, within the range of frequencies utilized by vocalizing marine mammal species; and 5) provide information to federal regulatory agencies to aid their continuing assessment of permitting for seismic surveys. ©2006 IEEE.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: OCEANS,,,,Acoustic variables measurement; Acoustics; Behavioral research; Computer networks; Conservation; Electric sparks; Electroacoustic transducers; Environmental protection; Environmental regulations; Experiments; Geological surveys; Laws and legislation; Mammals; Marine mammals; Public policy; Sonar; Underwater acoustics; Waterway transportation; WHALES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,OCEANS 2006,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In this study, we identified opportunities where forest restoration and rehabilitation programs in Colombia also align with priority areas for the conservation of Neotropical migratory birds. We used citizen science eBird-based abundance estimates to define regions with the highest richness of Neotropical migratory birds of conservation concern at montane elevations in Colombia and aligned these high richness areas with domestic initiatives for forest protection (Forest Areas), restoration (Restoration Areas) and rehabilitation (Rehabilitation Areas). We quantified the location and amounts of these three areas as well as the type of land protection and designation within them, specifically, National Protected Areas, Indigenous Reserves, Afro-descendent territories, and regions affected by poverty and violence that are prioritized for rural development by the Colombian government in Post-conflict Territorially Focused Development Programs (PDET). Almost half of Forest Areas overlapped with PDETs where goals for economic development present a risk of forest loss if not done sustainably. There was a 20% overlap between Forest Areas and Afro-descendant territories and indigenous reserves; most of this overlap was outside of established protected areas thus presenting an opportunity for community forest conservation that benefits migratory birds. We found an alignment of less than 6% between migrant bird focal areas and the priority Restoration and Rehabilitation Areas identified by the Colombian National Restoration Plan indicating less opportunity for these programs to simultaneously benefit Neotropical migrant species. Our approach highlights that timely and efficient conservation of declining migrants depends on identifying the regions and strategies that incorporate local communities as part of the solution to forest loss and degradation in Colombia. © 2023 Associaçăo Brasileira de Cięncia Ecológica e Conservaçăo",,33-40,,1,21,,Perspect.

Unlike other oceanic archipelagos, the ecological and evolutionary processes characteristic of Galapagos have been minimally affected by human activities, and the archipelago still retains most of its original, unique biodiversity. However, several recent reports suggest that the development model has turned unsustainable and that the unique values of the archipelago might be seriously at risk. In response to international concern, UNESCO added Galapagos to the list of World Heritage in Danger in 2007. Our goal was to provide new insights into the origins of the present-day crisis and suggest possible management alternatives. To this end, we re-examined the Galapagos situation from a broad systems perspective, conceptualizing the archipelago as a complex social-ecological system. Past, present, and possible future trends were explored using the resilience theory as a perspective for understanding the dynamics of the system. Four major historical periods were characterized and analyzed using Holling's adaptive cycle metaphor. The current Galapagos situation was characterized as a prolonged series of crisis events followed by renewal attempts that have not yet been completed. Three plausible future scenarios were identified, with tourism acting as the primary driver of change. The current tourism model reduces the system's resilience through its effects on the economy, population growth, resource consumption, invasive species arrival, and lifestyle of the island residents. Opportunities to reorganize and maintain a desirable state do exist. However, strong political and management decisions are urgently needed to avoid an irreversible shift to a socially and environmentally undesirable regime. Key measures to achieve a new sustainability paradigm for Galapagos include modifying traditional practices to produce a more adaptive resilience-based co-management model, adopting a more comprehensive approach to territorial planning, strengthening participative approaches and institutional networks, and promoting transdisciplinary research at the frontiers of social and biophysical sciences.",,,,2,13,,Ecol.

Management and Exploitation Areas for Benthic Resources (MEABR), a TURF system implemented in Chile, offers the opportunity to test this hypothesis. The management in these areas is based mainly on the assessment of the resources population status, with low or no consideration of the ecological - environmental effects that condition their productivity. In this study, we evaluate ecological trophic dynamics of the rocky subtidal community configuration in four periods along 20 years of the highly productive Choros Island MEABR – MPA, including one pre-implementation period. In this TURF, the carnivore gastropod Concholepas concholepas (locally known as “loco”) is the main targeted resource. The performance of ecosystem indexes of this TURF increased during the MEABR regime as compared with the pre MEABR implementation. Nevertheless, the most conspicuous increase occurred in 2013, primarily in response to changes in environmental conditions and their direct and indirect effects on community interactions. The analysis of interactions between guilds indicated that the main drivers were the interaction between the primary productivity, prey abundance and the top predator loco. This produces a long-term dynamic of the system modulated by the interplay of environmental variability, which at benthic community level increases prey populations thus sustaining increased loco productivity. In turn, intensified predation of loco reduces its prey. This produces natural productivity fluctuations, which counteract the expected outcome of management actions, impeding to achieve stable landings in the long term. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,208,,Ocean Coast.

This high marine biodiversity makes the Isla del Coco National Park (PNIC) a very attractive place for illegal fishers. We analyzed a dataset covering 8 years (2003–2010) of patrol records from PNIC with the aim of determining, a) the spatial-temporal distribution of illegal fishing, b) other areas that could be prone to illegal fishing but are currently undetected, c) the most profitable areas for this activity and d) the economic trade-offs of this illegal activity in relation to potential gains and the costs. Residuals Autocovariate Generalized Additive Models (RAC-GAMs) were used to model the illegal fishing activity's spatial distribution in relation to topographic, biological and temporal (quarter of the year) variables. The final RAC-GAM showed that bathymetry, distance from the coast, slope of the seabed, and yellowfin tuna and silky shark abundance were the most important predictors of this activity. Predictive maps suggest a major trend in the abundance of illegal fishing between the second and third quarters of the year in waters surrounding a seamount within the Park. Maps of the most profitable areas highlighted a specific risk location that should be intensively monitored. Overall, the potential gains from this activity outweigh the potential costs of being caught.

However, this assumes that governance, as reflected in legal, institutional and organizational frameworks, political capacity and human resources is sufficiently developed to ensure MPAs meet these goals. These issues are explored through presenting the first detailed analysis of coastal and marine governance in Guatemala. The research highlights a range of barriers to good governance which restrict the extent to which MPAs can function effectively. Recommendations are made which can capitalise upon the potential for locally managed marine areas as a means to facilitate the improved governance of coastal and marine resources in Guatemala. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,Sep-20,,,81,,Mar.

However, it is one of the less protected and studied states of the country. Here, we determined the potential distribution of all amphibian species in a risk category present in Guerrero and defined priority areas for amphibian conservation in the state. We modelled the potential distribution of 32 species using the maximum entropy modelling algorithm. These models were used to define priority areas through systematic conservation planning tools. The most important variables explaining species’ potential distribution were measures of climate variability, particularly temperature seasonality. The priority areas for amphibian conservation identified covered a total area of 12,212.72 km2 and contained an important proportion (almost a third) of the cloud mountain forests of the state. The most important planning units for meeting species targets and the most important planning units in terms of biodiversity overlapped in approximately the same planning units, located in the biogeographic regions of the Sierra Madre del Sur and the Pacific Coast. Finally, from the total priority areas identified, only 0.31% (38.17 km2) is currently protected within the existing natural protected areas in Guerrero. Thus, we consider that it is essential to protect additional natural areas in the state.

The current sectorial landscape and territorial planning approaches that separately address protected areas and urban areas have proven ineffective in conserving biodiversity. To address this important challenge, integrated territorial planning has been claimed to be able to better reconcile interests between nature conservation and urban planning, and ES supply and demand mapping may be a useful tool for such purposes. In this study, we quantitatively mapped biodiversity and the supply and demand of eight ES along an urban-rural gradient in the region of Madrid (Spain). Then, we clustered the municipalities in this gradient into four groups based on their common biodiversity and ES supply and demand characteristics. Additionally, we reviewed the urban plans from these municipalities and the management plans of three protected areas, analysed the references to ES in the plans, and searched for potential conflicts between urban and protected area planning aims. We found that municipalities with highly coupled ES supply and demand are in high altitude areas, coinciding with protected areas, while in urban areas, the ES demand exceeds the supply. Municipalities exhibiting a high demand for regulating ES usually include them in their plans, while municipalities with a high supply of regulating ES do not. Given the several conflicts between protected areas and urban planning that we detected, we discuss the utility of mapping biodiversity and ES supply and demand beyond administrative boundaries to overcome the challenge of integrating spatial planning approaches, especially in the context of urban-rural gradients and megacities. We also explore the utility of these methods for coordinating urban planning tools to achieve integrated territorial planning. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,803,,Sci.

We conducted semi-structured interviews with representatives from civil society organizations (CSOs), government institutions, and fishers actively involved in defining, developing, and standardizing the FRZ. The establishment of the first FRZ resulted from fishers’ interest in resource management, the involvement of CSOs serving as community advisors and intermediaries, and the definition of FRZ in the Fisheries Law; nevertheless, unofficial processes, such a lobbying, played an important role at the beginning of the procedure. We highlight that collaboration and coordination between government agencies are crucial to avoid tensions and to join fishing and conservation efforts; furthermore, increased enforcement and inspection are necessary to enhance the continuity of FRZs.

This knowledge is invaluable for conservation decisions. We used distribution modeling to predict the occurrence of benthic biotopes, or megafaunal communities of the seabed, to support the spatial planning of a marine national park. Nine biotope classes were obtained prior to modeling from multivariate species data derived from point source, underwater imagery. Five map layers relating to depth and terrain were used as predictor variables. Biotope type was predicted on a pixel-by-pixel basis, where pixel size was 15315 m and total modeled area was 455 km2. To choose a suitable modeling technique we compared the performance of five common models based on recursive partitioning: two types of classification and regression trees ([1] pruned by 10-fold cross-validation and [2] pruned by minimizing complexity), random forests, conditional inference (CI) trees, and CI forests. The selected model was a CI forest (an ensemble of CI trees), a machine-learning technique whose discriminatory power (class-byclass area under the curve [AUC] ranged from 0.75 to 0.86) and classification accuracy (72%) surpassed those of the other methods tested. Conditional inference trees are virtually new to the field of ecology. The final model's overall prediction error was 28%. Model predictions were also checked against a custom-built measure of dubiousness, calculated at the polygon level. Key factors other than the choice of modeling technique include: the use of a multinomial response, accounting for the heterogeneity of observations, and spatial autocorrelation. To illustrate how the model results can be implemented in spatial planning, representation of biodiversity in the national park was described and quantified. Given a goal of maximizing classification accuracy, we conclude that conditional inference trees are a promising tool to map biota.

We asked what were the potential gains and losses in terms of fishing effort and species conservation of different planning scenarios. Given a conservation target of 10 % representation of each biotope, the fishery need not lose more than 20 % of its fishing grounds to give way to cost-efficient conservation of benthic diversity.

However, these efforts are usually focused on mammal, bird or plant species, but there is a considerable lack of data in regard to insect fauna in most of the world’s reserves. In order to redress the balance, the aim of this work was to assess spatial and temporal diversity of Cryptinae, one of the most species-rich subfamily of hymenopteran parasitoids, in a Protected Natural Area in Mexico. The sampling program was conducted using Malaise traps, which were functioning throughout 2008–2009, in three vegetation types of Ría Lagartos Biosfere Reserve (Mexico). A total of 108 species were found. Rarefaction showed that there are no differences in species richness between vegetation types, but there are significant seasonal changes, being most specious in the rainy season. Regarding abundance, this was significantly affected by vegetation and season. Related to community structure, Agonocryptus chichimecus, Camera euryaspis, and Acerastesmyartsevae were the dominating species in the assemblages. Dry forest and rainy season showed highest diversity and evenness. ?-Diversity between vegetation types and season was high; the complementarity value reaches 82.4 and 77.7 % respectively. Spatial and temporal diversity partitions show that diversity had more changes related to vegetation types than to seasons. Diversity was strongly influenced by ?-diversity between vegetation types and by ?-diversity among months and among seasons, with a contribution to the total species richness with 49.4, 19.4 and 14.5 %, respectively. © 2015, Springer International Publishing Switzerland.",,1153-1161,,6,19,,J.

Therefore, the aim of this work was to assess whether and how vegetation types, land management and seasonality influence the diversity of Ichneumonidae (Hymenoptera) in the Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve (Mexico). A sampling programme was conducted using Malaise traps from 2008 to 2009 in three vegetation types, each with two conservation zones (core and buffer zones). Three seasons were considered: rainy, dry and north-winds (isolated storms from November to February). A total of 336 species were identified. Rarefaction and Generalized Linear Model indicated higher species richness and abundance, respectively, in the buffer zone of the dry forest; possible explanations for this finding include the intermediate disturbance hypothesis, wherein diversity can be higher in sites where disturbance is not very frequent or very intense, and the 'enemies hypothesis', wherein structural complexity and high plant diversity favour increased predators or, in this case, parasitoids. Diversity was higher during the rainy season, which may have been due to the higher availability of resources. Vegetation and management had a positive impact on the Coc (attack cocoons and pupae) and Myc (attack concealed larvae living in the fruiting bodies of mushrooms) parasitoid guilds. Members of the Coc guild are generalist parasitoids, which may be favoured in complex vegetation with a high richness of potential hosts and non-hosts. The Myc guild requires certain environmental conditions that promote fungal growth, such as humidity, that is absent in the other vegetation types of savannah and coastal dune scrubland.

This covers both how species are designated as ETP, and how performance of management is assessed with respect to ETP species, when scoring fisheries against the Standard. The process used to select these requirements is described, including a review of the requirements for earlier versions of the Standard and the scoring of these requirements in assessment reports for a selection of fisheries that have achieved MSC certification. The review identified a lack of consistency in the implementation of scoring guidelines, which was in part due to a lack of clarity in the requirements of the Standard. The revised Standard has been designed to achieve more consistent implementation of the requirements with respect to management of impacts on ETP species, and to align the requirements more closely with global best practice.

The UAV method allowed greater temporal and spatial coverage. We expanded classification of shark nursery habitat through monthly drone surveys and environmental data collection at 14 sites around San Cristobal Island (GMR) from November 2018 to July 2019. In the period of surveying, 56 flights identified 453 juvenile Carcharhinus limbatus (blacktip shark). Classification of nurseries followed three criteria, necessitating higher density, short-term residency, and annual site fidelity in target locations. We developed preliminary generalized linear models to elucidate potential environmental parameters influencing the perceived abundance and habitat preference of juveniles. Four sites were identified as either potential nurseries or nursery areas for the target species based on previous excursions. An averaged model was subsequently created from the models found to best explain deviance patterns (R2 = 0.10-0.44) in perceived shark abundance and habitat preference. Relative variable importance (RVI) values further clarified the parameters most associated with higher juvenile presence.

Direct impacts will arise principally through the effects of climate changes on geomorphological processes and vegetation cover, while indirect impacts will result from hard engineering interventions to mitigate risks from natural hazards. We present an indicative framework that sets out key steps to help geoconservation practitioners and managers of all protected and conserved areas (PCAs) with geoheritage interests to assess and manage the impacts of climate change on geoheritage. Strategies for mitigation and adaptation to assist contingency planning and implementation should be supported by site condition monitoring and as far as possible work with nature, but will require to be adaptive in the face of many uncertainties. Our approach is based on assessment of the risk of degradation of geosites and their features and processes arising from the likelihood of climate change affecting them and the predicted severity of impacts. The risk of degradation of a site, feature or process will depend on (i) its geographic location and proximity to geomorphological systems that are likely to respond dynamically to climate changes; (ii) the magnitude, rate and duration of these changes; and (iii) intrinsic factors that include the geological and physical characteristics of the site and its features and processes. Management options range from non-intervention to planned interventions informed by the risk of degradation assessment. However, documentation for posterity may be the only practical option for geoheritage interests close to existential thresholds, such as small mountain glaciers, and sites at risk from sea-level rise and coastal or river erosion. Adaptation strategies for geoheritage in protected and conserved areas should, as far as practicable, align with those for biodiversity and aim to deliver multiple co-benefits for nature and people, although economic, social and political constraints may hinder implementation where wider stakeholder interests are involved.

We performed spotlight counts at night and estimated its density using density surface models (DSMs). During the non-reproductive season, we found more individuals in the proximity to the Mar Chiquita Biosphere Reserve and tree plantations; and areas near towns and low accessibility (low road density). While during the reproductive season, we found significantly more European hares in heterogeneous environments, such as areas with smaller crop fields, and with higher mean productivity. In both seasons, we found a significant effect of the geographic coordinates. Based on the best models, we predicted a total abundance of 39,034 and 33,373 European hares, in the non-reproductive and reproductive season respectively. Our results revealed that disturbance by human activities and landscape configuration influenced the spatial variation of European hare density.

Some of these have focused on the potentially negative impacts of human activity on the environment while others have tried to identify the socio-political variables that could be at play in this relationship. Herein, we used well-adapted statistical methods to study the relationship between human activity and biodiversity in Europe at the country level. We worked with classical biodiversity indicators (two state indicators, two pressure indicators and one response indicator) on the one hand, and socio-economic variables on the other hand. We found strong relationships between economic variables and both pressure indicators (related to soil sealing) and state indicators (related to the proportion of extinct and threatened species). However, there was no relationship between economic variables and the response indicator (related to the proportion of protected area). We did find significant relationships between biodiversity and some sociological variables: in particular, interpersonal trust, which is known to favor economic prosperity, improved biodiversity levels. However, the best models all included economic variables. Our results cast a new light on an old issue: first, they reveal that the spatial density of human activity – either through economic growth or population levels – is a key variable that is positively related to land sealing levels and to both past and current biodiversity erosion; they also show that the impact of the spatial density of human activity on biodiversity state indicators tends to decelerate – but not to decrease – as the spatial density of human activity increases. Our results clearly indicate that the spatial density of human activity should be part of any political analyses related to biodiversity – including systems of biodiversity indicators. Our results also reveal the need for further studies involving these metrics. They also emphasize the tension between policy objectives related to economic growth and biodiversity preservation. Yet, they indicate that increasing social trust, which seems to favor both economic growth and biodiversity levels, might provide a solution. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,356-365,,,90,,Ecol.

However, many MPAs do not function effectively due to lack of funding and manpower, engendering the need to find long-lasting, sustainable solutions to monitor and maintain MPA performance. In this study, we utilized citizen science involvement to survey select fish families (Lutjanidae, Serranidae, Carangidae, Scombridae, Sphyraenidae, Lethrinidae, and Scaridae), key fish species (large and vulnerable piscivores), and megafauna in Nusa Penida MPA, Indonesia using the roving survey method. We found that despite a short training period and fast turnover rate, our participants were able to identify all target taxa, as well as detect spatial and temporal trends in fish and megafauna assemblages. An increase in fish density during austral winter was correlated with seasonal upwelling phenomena induced by the southeast monsoon, while site variations were influenced by local topography and type of current. We conclude that citizen science participation contributed immensely to the monitoring of Nusa Penida MPA, and subsequent self-sustained, long-term monitoring will be invaluable for future policy and decision making in MPA management and enforcement.& COPY; 2023 Elsevier B.V.

We propose a framework to specifically evaluate established MPAs in six steps. We tested the approach by reviewing published research and unpublished information on the Goukamma MPA in the centre of the South African temperate south coast. Information reviewed included effects on the structure of fish populations, catch and abundance indices of fish species, and ecosystem effects. We investigated factors that determine the usefulness of a MPA in fisheries management, including the movement behaviour of adult fishes, larval dispersal and fisher-displacement patterns. We found that differences in the rates of exploitation across the MPA border resulted in differences in abundance, size and condition of the main target species, roman (Chrysoblephus laticeps). The diversity and abundance of non-target fish species, and the composition of the benthic invertebrate community, were affected by the cessation of fishing. The potential for 'spillover' of adult roman might be limited to the vicinity of the MPA by their small home range, but there is potential for self-seeding and dispersal of roman eggs and larvae over wider areas. These theoretical considerations were confirmed by an analysis of catch data from before and after MPA implementation. The framework presented here may help to identify and fill gaps in the knowledge of established MPAs along South Africa's temperate south coast. © 2013. The Authors.",,,,01-Feb,109,,S. Afr. J.

A high rate of illegal fishing just inside the seaward boundary of the MPA could severely compromise its function. We suggest that a change of the seaward boundary of the reserve to coincide with a latitudinal line could increase its function as a harvest refuge for resident reef fishes such as roman, facilitate voluntary compliance and monitoring and prosecution of illegal fishing without a significant negative impact on the commercial linefishing fleet in the area.

Abundance and size frequency data from 273 standardised angling and 44 underwater visual census sites were analysed with generalised linear modelling and multivariate techniques to separate the effects of exploitation, habitat, time of day and season. Ichthyofaunal communities differed significantly between protected and exploited sites, which is likely a result of differential fishing pressure. Abundance and size of roman Chrysoblephus laticeps, the dominant species of the local linefishery, were significantly lower at exploited sites. Non-target species with considerable dietary overlap with roman were significantly less abundant inside the MPA, probably due to interspecific competition, whereas species whose diets differed to that of roman were more abundant at protected sites.

Biosphere reserves are sites designed to be of global significance in terms of both the biodiversity within them and their potential for sustainable development, and are therefore ideal places for the development of local solutions to global challenges. While the protection of biodiversity is a primary goal of biosphere reserves, adequate information on the state and trends of biodiversity remains a critical gap for adaptive management in biosphere reserves. Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) is an increasingly popular method for continued, reproducible, scalable, and cost-effective monitoring of animal wildlife.

The first principle requiring nature conservation to be the primary objective of protected areas runs counter to the majority of functioning Pacific island protected areas that have been established with sustainable livelihoods as the major driver. Furthermore, the definition of conservation as perceived by most Pacific island cultures is inextricably linked with ‘sustainable use’. In this context, we offer suggestions for moving forward, including raising awareness of these issues, consulting on the appropriate definitions of protected areas that fit the legal and cultural context of each country, and avoiding incorporating the language of the 2008 Guidelines into definitions or wording for national policy and legislation until broad consensus and understanding is reached. © 2013, IUCN - International Union for the Conservation of Nature.

However, some technologies have considerable potential to impact on the biodiversity of the environments in which they are placed. In this study, an assessment was undertaken of the realistic deployment potential of a range of renewable energy technologies in the UK, considering constraints imposed by biodiversity conservation priorities. We focused on those energy sources that have the potential to make important energy contributions but which might conflict with biodiversity conservation objectives. These included field-scale solar, bioenergy crops, wind energy (both onshore and offshore), wave and tidal stream energy. The spatially-explicit analysis considered the potential opportunity available for each technology, at various levels of ecological risk. The resultant maps highlight the energy resource available, physical and policy constraints to deployment, and ecological sensitivity (based on the distribution of protected areas and sensitive species). If the technologies are restricted to areas which currently appear not to have significant ecological constraints, the total potential energy output from these energy sources was estimated to be in the region of 5,547 TWh/yr. This would be sufficient to meet projected energy demand in the UK, and help to achieve carbon reduction targets. However, we highlight two important caveats. First, further ecological monitoring and surveillance is required to improve understanding of wildlife distributions and therefore potential impacts of utilising these energy sources. This is likely to reduce the total energy available, especially at sea. Second, some of the technologies under investigation are currently not deployed commercially. Consequently this potential energy will only be available if continued effort is put into developing these energy sources/technologies, to enable realisation of their full potential. © 2016 Gove et al.

Numerous management strategies and regulations have been developed to monitor and reduce population declines. In Puerto Rico, an administrative order of 1999, regulates a closed season, prohibited the capture of crabs through the year from NPA’s and below a minimum size for capture (64 mm). The goal of this research was to monitor spatial-temporal dynamics of crab captures after the implementation of the administrative order. Crabs captured in the Jobos Bay Estuary (JBE) were studied over a 15-year period. The size (carapace width) (CW), sex, and color were documented for 1 531 crabs from 31 crab hunters. Significant temporal difference in crab size was observed (Kruskal Wallis = 46.82, P < 6.187e-9), the smallest crabs were captured in 2004 and the largest crabs were captured in 2013. Crab size varied by color (Kruskal Wallis = 86.54, P < 2.2e-16), larger crabs were blue, medium sized crabs were brown and smallest crabs were orange. Since color is related to development stage and market value, color can be used as an educational and enforcement tool. There was significant spatial difference in the size of crabs captured (Kruskal Wallis = 252.54, P < 2.2e-16), smaller crabs were captured in smaller hunting areas. Only three percent of crabs captured from 2009 to 2018 were below the legal-size limit. Temperature had a weak significant positive relationship with crab size and in years when rainfall was lower smaller crabs were captured. Increases in crab size from 2004 to 2013 coincided with mangrove recovery and the current decrease of crab size coincides with droughts of 2015.

Territoriality can influence access to mates, food resources, or shelter sites, and may also impact conservation efforts, as the delineation of marine protected areas relies on knowledge of home ranges and movement patterns. However, accurately determining distribution and movement is challenging for many marine species, especially small and medium species, which cannot carry beacons or tags to automatically measure movement, and are also difficult for human observers to accurately follow. Yet these smaller species comprise the bulk of near-shore assemblages, and are essential conservation targets. As such, novel solutions for monitoring movement and behavior are required. Here we use a combination of tracking and environmental reconstruction to explore territoriality, aggression, and navigation in a small marine fish, explicitly applying this technique to questions of sociality in the marine environment. We use the Mediterranean Rainbow Wrasse, Coris julis, as a test case, but this approach can be extended to many other species and contexts. In contrast with previous reports for this species, we find that during our observation period, female C. julis occupy consistent territories over sand patches, and that they defend these territories against same-sex conspecifics. Displacement experiments revealed two further important social behavioral traits – first that displaced individuals were able to navigate back to their territory, avoiding almost all other female territories as they returned. Second that when displaced fish approached the territories of others, residents of these territories were often aggressive to the non-neighboring fish, in contrast with our observations of low aggression counts toward their natural neighbors. Resident fish therefore appear to show differing levels of aggressiveness depending on their social relationship with same-sex conspecifics. Overall, these results suggest a sophisticated degree of social behavior in this marine wrasse, dependent on social and structural environment, but which can only effectively be revealed by state-of-the-art tracking and environment reconstruction techniques. © Copyright © 2021 Goverts, Nührenberg and Jordan.",,,,,8,,Front.

The benefits of spatial management zones, such as marine protected areas (MPAs), for such animals are unclear. To help fill this knowledge gap, we examined core habitat use areas (CHUAs) for bull (Carcharhinus leucas), great hammerhead (Sphyrna mokarran) and tiger sharks (Galeocerdo cuvier) in relation to specific MPAs and exclusive economic zones (EEZs) in the western North Atlantic Ocean. Methods: Bull, great hammerhead and tiger sharks (N = 86 total) were satellite tagged and tracked in southern Florida and the northern Bahamas between 2010 and 2013. Filtered and regularized positions from Argos locations of tag transmissions were used to generate CHUAs for these sharks. Overlaps of CHUAs with regional protected areas and exclusive economic management zones were quantified to determine the proportion of each tracked shark's CHUA under spatial protection from exploitation. Results: A total of 0%, 17.9% and 34.7% of the regional CHUAs for tracked bull, great hammerhead and tiger sharks, respectively, were fully protected from exploitation in the study area. Main conclusions: Expansion of protected areas to include U.S. territorial waters would effectively protect 100% of the CHUAs for all tracked sharks in the study area. This finding is particularly significant for great hammerhead sharks, which are currently overfished, vulnerable to bycatch mortality and are the focus of strident regional conservation efforts. These findings also provide a means to inform decision makers and marine conservation planning efforts as to the types of management actions available and potential efficacy of spatial protections for these marine predators. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,534-546,,5,22,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,ACOUSTIC TELEMETRY; Animalia; APEX PREDATORY SHARKS; Argolidhos; Argos; Atlantic Ocean; Atlantic Ocean (North); Bahamas; biotelemetry; Biotelemetry; bycatch; Carcharhinus leucas; CARCHARHINUS-LEUCAS; Chondrichthyes; Conservation; CONSERVATION IMPLICATIONS; conservation planning; conservation status; decision making; Exclusive Economic Zone; fish; fishes; Fishes; Galeocerdo; Galeocerdo cuvier; Greece; habitat use; Habitat use; HABITAT-USE; marine environment; MIGRATION; mortality; MOVEMENT PATTERNS; overfishing; Peloponnisos; Pisces; place-based management; Place-based management; population decline; protected area; REEF-ASSOCIATED SHARKS; RESERVES; SEA-TURTLES; shark; Sphyrna mokarran; Sphyrnidae; sustainability; Sustainability,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Previous studies often have lacked detailed dietary information on major predators, and have often been confounded by differences in habitat complexity between reserve and fished sites. This study investigates the effects of marine reserve protection on predator-prey interactions of coral reef fish on the inshore islands of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). The abundance of species of prey fish of Plectropomus leopardus (Serranidae), a piscivore and the major target of the hook and line fisheries on the GBR, were estimated in protected and fished zones. These prey species were identified from previous detailed studies of the diet of P. leopardus. Fish populations and habitat characteristics were surveyed by underwater visual census. Previous studies had determined that the biomass of P. leopardus was 3-4 times higher in protected than fished zones in the Whitsunday and Palm Islands, central GBR, after 14 years of protection. Eight of the nine prey species had a higher density within fished zones than protected zones, six significantly so. The density of all prey fish was twice that in the fished than the protected zone (p < 0.001). There were no significant differences in availability of different sized refuge holes, structural complexity or live coral cover between zones. Thus, important attributes of habitat complexity did not confound the comparisons between reserve and fished zones. Finally, a significant negative correlation (r = 0.46) between coral trout biomass and summed prey fish biomass suggested that predation may be an important structuring process in this system. The results have implications for the conservation of fishery targets and their prey.

We qualitatively and quantitatively (where sufficient standardised data were available) assess the literature regarding the role of structural complexity in coral reef ecosystems. A rapidly increasing number of publications have studied the role of complexity in reef ecosystems over the past four decades, with a concomitant increase in the diversity of methods used to quantify structure. Quantitative analyses of existing data indicate a strong negative relationship between structural complexity and algal cover, which may reflect the important role complexity plays in enhancing herbivory by reef fishes. The cover of total live coral and branching coral was positively correlated with structural complexity. These habitat attributes may be creating much of the structure, resulting in a collinear relationship; however, there is also evidence of enhanced coral recovery from disturbances where structural complexity is high. Urchin densities were negatively correlated with structural complexity; a relationship that may be driven by urchins eroding reef structure or by their gregarious behaviour when in open space. There was a strong positive relationship between structural complexity and fish density and biomass, likely mediated through density-dependent competition and refuge from predation. More variable responses were found when assessing individual fish families, with all families examined displaying a positive relationship to structural complexity, but only half of these relationships were significant. Although only corroborated with qualitative data, structural complexity also seems to have a positive effect on two ecosystem services: tourism and shoreline protection. Clearly, structural complexity is an integral component of coral reef ecosystems, and it should be incorporated into monitoring programs and management objectives. © 2012 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.",,315-326,,2,32,,Coral Reefs,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Verlag,,,,algae; Anthozoa; biomass; complexity; coral reef; Coral reef ecology; Coral reef fishes; data acquisition; Diversity; Ecological methods; ecosystem function; Ecosystem function; habitat; herbivory; marine ecosystem; Marine protected areas; open space; Pisces; predation; predation risk; protected area; refuge; species diversity,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The 1998 bleaching event was most severe in the western Indian Ocean, where coral declined by up to 90% in some locations. Using fisheries-independent data, we assessed the long-term impacts of this event on fishery target species in the Seychelles, the overall size structure of the fish assemblage, and the effectiveness of two marine protected areas (MPAs) in protecting fish communities. The biomass of fished species above the size retained in fish traps changed little between 1994 and 2005, indicating no current effect on fishery yields. Biomass remained higher in MPAs, indicating they were effective in protecting fish stocks. Nevertheless, the size structure of the fish communities, as described with size-spectra analysis, changed in both fished areas and MPAs, with a decline in smaller fish (<30 cm) and an increase in larger fish (>45 cm). We believe this represents a time-lag response to a reduction in reef structural complexity brought about because fishes are being lost through natural mortality and fishing, and are not being replaced by juveniles. This effect is expected to be greater in terms of fisheries productivity and, because congruent patterns are observed for herbivores, suggests that MPAs do not offer coral reefs long-term resilience to bleaching events. Corallivores and planktivores declined strikingly in abundance, particularly in MPAs, and this decline was associated with a similar pattern of decline in their preferred corals. We suggest that climate-mediated disturbances, such as coral bleaching, be at the fore of conservation planning for coral reefs. © 2007 Society for Conservation Biology.",,1291-1300,,5,21,,Conserv.

There is a need to broaden our assessments of extinction to identify landscapes that contain high proportions of threatened species and therefore, how more holistic species conservation responses might be developed. The conservation status of species is especially concerning in Southeast Asia and within the region, the avian family Phasianidae affords the opportunity to develop an approach for examining species richness and extinction probability for an entire family at landscape scale. There are 42 pheasant, partridge and quail species in the region and 77% of Southeast Asia encompasses the geographic range of at least five species. Due to high levels of uncertainty about how species respond to anthropogenic threats, we created an expert elicited Bayesian Belief Network to explore survival prospects using publically available data on IUCN extinction probability categories, proxies of threat (effects of hunting, forest loss and protected area effectiveness) and species geographic ranges to assess where the overall risk to survival was highest. Western Myanmar, Central Indoburma (Thailand/Myanmar), the Annamite mountains and Central Vietnam lowlands, Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra and Borneo are priorities for avoiding large numbers of extinctions of phasianids. This assessment will be strengthened by more detailed data on intensity of hunting pressure across the region, and variation in species' tolerance to human disturbance.

However, the rapid development of digital technologies, such as underwater video cameras and photogrammetric techniques, are providing new sampling opportunities in marine ecosystems. In this study we compare two non-destructive sampling methods, UVC and diver operated stereo-video systems (stereo-DOVs), to characterize assemblages of targeted fish species. Surveys were undertaken in three zones with different levels of protection from fishing (MR, marine reserve; PP, partially protected reserve; NP, non-protected area) in the Montgrí, Medes Islands and Baix Ter Natural Park (NW Mediterranean Sea). There were no statistically significant differences between stereo-DOVs and UVC surveys in terms of species richness, relative abundance and biomass of targeted fish species across the three protection levels. Both methodologies found statistically significant differences between areas closed to fishing (MR) and areas where fishing is regulated (PP) or allowed (NP), whereby higher fish biomass, density, species richness and larger sizes were found in MR surveys. Length estimates of fish were comparable between methods albeit with some species-specific differences in the size-distribution, and a tendency for UVC to overestimate the size of larger fishes. Our results suggest that stereo-DOVs provide an equivalent and complementary technique to UVC to survey assemblages of targeted fish species. In addition to structural data (e.g., biomass, abundance, and length) recorded by UVC, stereo-DOVs provide a permanent visual record of a fish community and enable additional factors such as fish behaviour, precise distance and length, and benthic composition to be quantified. Stereo-DOVs may, therefore, facilitate the continuity and expansion of long-term monitoring programs of fish assemblages in the Mediterranean Sea. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,520,,J. Exp. Mar. Biol.

Associated with this trend is the potential for negative impacts on fish stocks through exploitation or management measures such as stocking and introduction of non-native fishes. Nevertheless, recreational fishers can be instrumental in successful fisheries conservation through active involvement in, or initiation of, conservation projects to reduce both direct and external stressors contributing to fishery declines. Understanding fishers' concerns for sustained access to the resource and developing methods for their meaningful participation can have positive impacts on conservation efforts. We examined a suite of case studies that demonstrate successful involvement of recreational fishers in conservation and management activities that span developed and developing countries, temperate and tropical regions, marine and freshwater systems, and open- and closed-access fisheries. To illustrate potential benefits and challenges of involving recreational fishers in fisheries management and conservation, we examined the socioeconomic and ecological contexts of each case study. We devised a conceptual framework for the engagement of recreational fishers that targets particular types of involvement (enforcement, advocacy, conservation, management design [type and location], research, and monitoring) on the basis of degree of stakeholder stewardship, scale of the fishery, and source of impacts (internal or external).

Decision support tools can be applied to provide advice on potential zoning configurations. However, few studies used decision support tools to systematically determine good locations for different types of zones that accommodate multiple and often conflicting objectives. Previous studies have mostly used scores to integrate multiple objectives and identify different zoning configurations or explored priority areas for each zone separately. Neither of these approaches ensure that solutions meet both biodiversity and human-use objectives. Nor do they deal with the fact that in zoning plans the whole is not the same as the sum of the parts, the importance of a site depends on how the rest of the sites are managed. The aim of this study was to identify different zoning configurations for the Raja Ampat MPA network in Eastern Indonesia that address biodiversity, sustainable fisheries and community resource access objectives. Identifying zoning configurations is particularly difficult here given the importance of protecting high biodiversity reefs and other conservation values, and the high reliance of local communities on their marine resources. Potential areas for no-take zones were identified that have a small and equitable impact across the fishing grounds of different fishing communities whilst ensuring each community has access to a 'sustainable fishing zone'. Access to fishing grounds for each community is complicated due to marine tenure restricting where individuals can fish and reliance on traditional types of fishing vessels that restrict long distance travel. This approach for zoning was compared to three others. The first focused on identifying areas only for the no-take zone, a traditional systematic planning approach, and the second on both zones without explicitly accounting for the issue of resource access for each community. The solutions unfairly impacted particular communities. Finally, it is demonstrated how a pre-existing zoning proposal, driven by negotiation can be integrated into systematic planning. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,184-194,,,38,,Mar.

They are also heavily exploited and, as a result, are the focus of numerous spatial planning initiatives. Over the past decade, there has been increasing enthusiasm for protected areas as a tool for pelagic conservation, however, few have been implemented. Here we demonstrate an approach to plan protected areas that address the physical and biological dynamics typical of the pelagic realm. Specifically, we provide an example of an approach to planning protected areas that integrates pelagic and benthic conservation in the southern Benguela and Agulhas Bank ecosystems off South Africa. Our aim was to represent species of importance to fisheries and species of conservation concern within protected areas. In addition to representation, we ensured that protected areas were designed to consider pelagic dynamics, characterized from time-series data on key oceanographic processes, together with data on the abundance of small pelagic fishes. We found that, to have the highest likelihood of reaching conservation targets, protected area selection should be based on time-specific data rather than data averaged across time. More generally, we argue that innovative methods are needed to conserve ephemeral and dynamic pelagic biodiversity. © 2011 Grantham et al.",,,,2,6,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,animal; Animals; article; benthos; biodiversity; Biodiversity; bird; Birds; community dynamics; conservation biology; Conservation of Natural Resources; ecosystem; Ecosystem; ECOSYSTEM APPROACH; environmental monitoring; Environmental Monitoring; environmental planning; environmental protection; fish; Fisheries; Fishes; FOOD AVAILABILITY; food industry; GANNETS MORUS-CAPENSIS; marine biology; Marine Biology; marine environment; methodology; oceanography; Oceanography; Oceans and Seas; pelagic species; PENGUINS SPHENISCUS-DEMERSUS; physiology; Pisces; population dynamics; Population Dynamics; POSSIBLE MECHANISMS; PROTECTED AREAS; REGIME SHIFTS; sea; SEA-SURFACE TEMPERATURE; South Africa; SOUTH-AFRICA; species conservation; species diversity; species richness; TROPHIC CASCADES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Fisheries managers shifting from a target species focus to an ecosystem-based approach are being required to consider the impact of fisheries on non-target species. There are a range of complementary management tools that help reduce bycatch, such as gear restrictions, temporal restrictions, and bycatch reduction devices. One management approach that is increasingly being considered is fisheries closures. We tested the utility of 3 closure approaches for the improved protection of bycatch species in the South African pelagic longline fishery. As there was some variation where and when different groups of bycatch species were caught, we found that temporary spatial closures were the most effective strategy for both protecting bycatch and minimizing the cost to fishers. This is logical because having mobile closures in space and time provides more flexibility than permanent spatial closures or seasonal closures. However these benefits need to be traded off against the costs and problems of implementing temporary spatial closures. Of the 2 sub-optimal strategies, we discovered that seasonal closures are significantly less effective than spatial closures. © Inter-Research 2008.",,291-299,,02-Mar,5,,Endanger.

The results show population recovery trends, providing empirical evidence that suggests the effectiveness of area-based protection measures in marine mammals. Moreover, a parallelism between the governance indicators and the biophysical ones supports that biological and management effectiveness are interrelated. On this basis, the biophysical indicator of human impact was discussed to be deeply related to the precautionary principle, which appears less efficient than the adaptive management.

This study examines recreational boaters in a proposed MPA in British Columbia, Canada, using the recreation opportunity spectrum (ROS) and models of recreation conflict as a basis for investigation. Boaters (n = 543) visiting the region during the summer completed face-to-face surveys. Results show variability in boater setting preferences, supporting an ROS-based approach to MPA planning and zoning. While boaters as a whole placed the greatest importance on natural settings, sailboat operators expressed stronger preferences for natural and quiet settings relative to motorboats, and motorboat operators expressed stronger preferences for settings characterized by built facilities and extractive activities relative to sailboats. Several marine activities emerged as sources of perceived conflict for boaters, including personal watercraft, commercial whale watching vessels, and shellfish aquaculture. Our analysis indicates that while some of these may be addressed through zoning, others are better addressed through education and communication.

The failure to translate planning efforts into effective action (i.e., the research-implementation gap) hinders our ability to conserve biodiversity threatened by ongoing climate change and habitat fragmentation. Sustained collaboration between researchers and practitioners to co-produce conservation strategies can bridge this gap by providing end-users with implementation guidance based on legitimate, relevant, and trusted information. However, few case studies capture methods for the co-production and use of climate-wise connectivity knowledge. Here we describe the framework for sustained engagement used by a multi-jurisdictional practitioner network to co-produce climate-wise linkages for the interior coastal ranges in Northern California. We found iterative co-production shaped ecological objectives, input data, analytical methods, and implementation priorities. Stakeholders used both co-produced and local socio-ecological (e.g., development threat, management priorities) knowledge to finalize corridor implementation plans. Priority corridors afforded greater climate benefit and were more likely to connect lands managed by participant organizations. Our results demonstrate how collaborative partnerships can bridge the gap between connectivity research and implementation.

Despite extensive theoretical discussions, little has been done to study attitudes toward and consequences of such advocacy in particular cases. We assessed attitudes toward science and policy advocacy in the case of marine protected areas (MPAs) on the basis of a survey of delegates at the First International Marine Protected Areas Congress. Delegates were all members of the international marine conservation community and represented academic, government, and nongovernmental organizations. A majority of respondents believed science is objective but only a minority believed that values can be eliminated from science. Respondents showed only partial support of positivist principles of science. Almost all respondents supported scientists being integrated into MPA policy making, whereas half of the respondents agreed that scientists should actively advocate for particular MPA policies. Scientists with a positivist view of science supported a minimal role for scientists in policy, whereas government staff with positivist beliefs supported an advocacy or decision-making role for scientists. Policy-making processes for MPAs need to account for these divergent attitudes toward science and advocacy if science-driven and participatory approaches are to be reconciled. © 2008 Society for Conservation Biology.",,460-468,,2,23,,Conserv.

Effective governance is essential if MPAs are to achieve their objectives, yet many MPAs face conflicts and governance challenges, including lack of trust and knowledge integration between fishers, scientists, and policy makers. This paper considers the role of a boundary organization in facilitating knowledge integration in a co-managed MPA, the Gladden Spit and Silk Cayes Marine Reserve in Belize. Boundary organizations can play an important role in resource management, by bridging the science-policy divide, facilitating knowledge integration, and enabling communication in conditions of uncertainty. Drawing on ethnographic research conducted in Belize, the paper identifies four challenges for knowledge integration. First, actors have divergent perspectives on whether and how knowledge is being integrated. Second, actors disagree on resource conditions within the MPA and how these should be understood. Third, in order to maintain accountability with multiple actors, including fishers, government, and funders, the boundary organization has promoted the importance of different types of knowledge for different purposes (science and fishers' knowledge), rather than the integration of these. Finally, a lack of trust and uneven power relations make it difficult to separate knowledge claims from political claims. However, even if knowledge integration proves difficult, boundary organizations may still play an important role by maintaining accountability, providing space for conflicting understandings to co-exist, and ultimately for governance institutions to evolve.",,1013-1034,,2,10,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000388648200025,,,,,,,Boundary organization; co-management; CONSERVATION; EVOLUTION; GOVERNANCE; INFORMATION; local knowledge; MANAGEMENT; marine protected areas; non-governmental organization; POLICY; SCALE; SCIENCE; SUCCESS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Hunting constitutes the greatest current threat to the region’s threatened vertebrates and has resulted in many areas of largely intact forest losing much of their former vertebrate diversity and abundance. Though numerous hunting methods are used, capture with home-made snares is a major driver of this defaunation. Snares are cheaply constructed and easy to set but can be difficult to detect and are highly damaging to vertebrate populations due to their indiscriminate and wasteful nature. The primary response to snaring is the removal of snares by patrol teams: more than 200,000 snares were removed from just five of the region’s protected areas between 2010 and 2015. However due to the low opportunity costs of replacing snares, removal alone is largely ineffective. Without the proactive search, arrest and prosecution of snare-setters, along with incentives not to hunt, snares will continue to be replaced. Legislative reform that criminalises the possession of snares, and the materials used for their construction, inside and immediately adjacent to protected areas is also required. Consistent enforcement of such legislation is essential.

Bayesian statistics provide an intuitive way to interpret biodiversity monitoring data but are largely unused, or poorly understood, by field biologists and protected area managers. We built Bayesian occupancy models for two threatened endemics of the Annamite mountains: northern yellow-cheeked gibbon Nomascus (gabriellae) annamensis and crested argus Rheinardia ocellata ocellata based on auditory surveys in three protected areas in central Vietnam. Occupancy of 2 × 2-km grid cells across the landscape was 0.76 ± SE 0.03 for northern yellow-cheeked gibbon and 0.68 ± SE 0.05 for crested argus. Models predicted higher probability of gibbon occurrence at lower elevations and higher probability of crested argus presence with increasing dense forest cover. Bayesian modeling is a useful tool for assessing the effectiveness of conservation interventions and for measuring progress against conservation goals. The wider application of Bayesian statistics in conservation monitoring should allow more intuitive and user-friendly representation of sampling uncertainty, including visual representation of probability distributions and more rigorous testing for changes in the status of conservation targets. © 2014 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,1541-1550,,6,23,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Kluwer Academic Publishers,,,,auditory cue; Bayesian analysis; biodiversity; CONSERVATION; Conservation evidence; endangered species; endemic species; forest cover; Galliforme; Gibbon; habitat management; HABITAT PREFERENCES; Hylobatidae; Indochina; MAMMALS; Nomascus; Occupancy; primate; protected area; Protected area management; Rheinardia ocellata; Viet Nam,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A number of ungulate species in Southeast Asia are also globally threatened and are therefore important conservation targets in their own right. We estimated large (> 15 kg) ungulate densities in two protected areas, i.e. Mondulkiri Protected Forest and Phnom Prich Wildlife Sanctuary, in eastern Cambodia using distance-based line transect sampling. During the 2009/2010 and 2010/2011 dry seasons, we surveyed 110 line transects (randomly distributed across 3,406 km2) for a total of 1,310 km. We used DISTANCE 6.0 to model detection functions from observations of banteng Bos javanicus, wild pig Sus scrofa and red muntjac Muntiacus muntjak generating estimates of group density, cluster size and individual density. Estimated densities ± SE were 1.1 ± 0.2 individual banteng/km2, 1.4 ± 0.4 individual wild pig/km2 and 2.2 ± 0.2 individual red muntjac/km2 giving an overall density of approximately 4.7 large ungulates/km2. Although wild pig and red muntjac densities were within the range of estimates reported from ecologically similar protected areas in tropical Asia, overall large ungulate density is much lower than the intrinsic carrying capacity of deciduous dipterocarp forest. This appears largely to be due to the scarcity of large deer (i.e. hog deer Axis porcinus, sambur Cervus unicolor and Eld's deer Cervus eldii) as a result of extensive historic hunting. Current large ungulate densities appear too low to support a viable tiger Panthera tigris population in the long term, and ungulate recovery, driven by strong protected area management, needs to be achieved before tiger populations can be restored. © Wildlife Biology, NKV.",,406-413,,4,18,,Wildl.

One of the main achievements of the Birds and Habitats Directives, often referred as the Nature Directives, lies in the creation of a EU ecological network of nature conservation areas, called the NATURA 2000 Network. © 2023 selection and editorial matter, [Mitja Grbec, Tullio Scovazzi and Ilaria Tani]; individual chapters, the contributors.",,91-117,,,,,,,,,,,Taylor and Francis,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Legal Aspects of Marine Protected Areas in the Mediterranean Sea: An Adriatic and Ionian Perspective DOI: 10.4324/9781003367963-4,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The sea pen Funiculina quadrangularis and the habitat associated with two further sea pen species, Virgularia mirabilis and Pennatula phosphorea, are of key conservation importance and are recommended for protection within MPAs. This study models their potential distributions using the MAXimum ENTropy algorithm and assesses these in relation to five possible marine protected areas (pMPAs) proposed for Scottish waters. Metrics relevant to assessing the efficacy of MPAs are also presented. Four environmental variables of prime importance for predicting the presence of all three species of sea pen were identified: mud, minimum salinity, depth, and gravel. The habitat suitability index increased with mud content. The modelled distribution of F. quadrangularis indicated a deeper distribution than V. mirabilis or P. phosphorea and was not present in sediment with gravel content above 30%. Pennatula phosphorea had the smallest area of suitable habitat, while V. mirabilis had the largest. The percentage predicted suitable area for each species that was encompassed by the five pMPAs ranged from 11% for F. quadrangularis to 15% for P. phosphorea. Some of the largest areas predicted as suitable for F. quadrangularis lay outside the pMPAs. The model results indicated differences in the environmental requirements of the three species of sea pen that can be linked to the autecology of each species. Patch sizes, calculated from a binary output of the model, were used to estimate the degree of habitat fragmentation, thereby giving a partial assessment of the adequacy criterion for these pMPAs. The results suggest that potential MPAs within the study area cover sizeable areas of potential sea pen habitat. However, further areas suitable for F. quadrangularis could be considered. © 2014 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.",,576-586,,2,72,,ICES J. Mar.

In this study, MPAs across six European ecoregions were assessed from a benthic ecology perspective. The study included 102 MPAs, designated by 10 countries, and focused on three aspects regarding the role of the benthos in: (i) the designation of MPAs; (ii) the management measures used in MPAs; and (iii) the monitoring and assessment of MPAs. Qualitative entries to a questionnaire based on an existing framework (EU project ‘Monitoring Evaluation of Spatially Managed Areas’, (MESMA) were collected by 19 benthic experts of the ICES Benthic Ecology Working Group. A pedigree matrix was used to apply a numerical scale (score) to these entries. The results showed clear differences in scores between ecoregions and between criteria. The designation-phase criteria generally achieved higher scores than the implementation-phase criteria. Poor designation-phase scores were generally reiterated in the implementation-phase scores, such as scores for assessment and monitoring. Over 70% of the MPA case studies were found to consider the benthos to some extent during selection and designation; however, this was not followed up with appropriate management measures and good practice during the implementation phase. Poor spatial and temporal coverage of monitoring and ineffective indicators is unlikely to pick up changes caused by management measures in the MPA. There is concern that without adequate monitoring and adaptive management frameworks, the MPAs will be compromised. Also, there could be an increased likelihood that, with regard to the benthos, they will fail to meet their conservation objectives. This assessment was successful in highlighting issues related to the representation and protection of the benthos in MPAs and where changes need to be made, such as expanding the characterization and monitoring of benthic species or habitats of interest. These issues could be attributable to an ongoing process and/or an indication that some MPAs only have ‘paper protection’. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,1253-1275,,7,30,,Aquatic Conserv. Mar.

This site was discovered and characterized in the early nineteen nineties, but has remained untouched until investigators from Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute(MBARI), Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary ( MBNMS), National Ocean and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and Stanford University mounted a joint expedition to re-investigate the Macon. The USS Macon location falls within the boundaries of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, which was formed in the late nineties. One of the objectives of the Sanctuary is to characterize significant cultural heritage sites. The Macon is considered to be one of the most unique and significant wrecks on the west coast. The purpose of this expedition was to survey, document, and investigate surrounding areas to provide information to assist in determining the future disposition of the wreck site, and to develop a long range preservation strategy. Additionally, new robotic and vessel technology developed and used by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute was utilized in conducting this exploration. This paper will describe the background, research tools, and results of the first systematic and detailed survey of the Macon using the Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) Tiburon, in conjunction with the Research Vessel Western Flyer. The Macon wreckage area is made up of two primary debris fields that measure about 60 x 50 meters each, separated by approximately 120 meters. From previous underwater surveys, it was determined that the forward bow and mid section of the airship were positively indentifed on the seabed, however no definitive evidence of the aft tail section was ever seen. The most northern debris field includes the confirmed identification of the mooring mast receptacle, cabinets and furniture from the meteorologist or officers' cabin, condensers, and duraluminum girder structure. The second southern field is dominated by the airplane hanger area which still contains the remains of four Curtiss Sparrowhawk F9C-2 biplanes, five German built 12-cylinder Mayback airship engines, an Allison out-drive propeller mechanism, fuel tanks, and the galley /mess area. These debris areas are located in less than 500 meters of water, approximately four miles off the California coast. Planning for this project started in August 2004, with the research missions scoped in two phases scheduled for 2005 and 2006. Phase one was a two day side-scan survey effort conducted from the NOAA vessel McArthur II in the summer of 2005, using a USGS provided 455 /100 KHz tow fish. This survey represented the most comprehensive and extensive inspection of the surrounding area. A primary goal of this mission was to search outside of the previously surveyed area for evidence of additional wreckage or the missing tail section of the Macon, which had eluded researchers since the early 1990s. This new survey revealed new secondary seabed anomalies for later investigation with the ROV. The sidescan operations resulted in covering approximately 10km by 5km of the seabed. The primary archaeological survey was performed over a five day period in September, 2006 from the MBARI Research Vessel Western Flyer. Primary goals for this expedition included 100 % video documentation of the debris fields while utilizing improved GIS mapping capabilities to accurately fix artifact positions and spatial relationships. A secondary goal for this visual survey was to generate a high-resolution mosaic of both debris fields using HDTV images stored on tape. Advanced controls software developed by Stanford University for MBARI ROVs was employed for this phase of the operation. This controls program primarily uses vision-based feedback, along with other sensors, to computer control the ROV in predetermined paths, which were used to generate overlapping video survey lines to produce a complete mosaic. Aspects of this new vision-based ROV controls program is summarized in this report.

The ROV was configured for two modes of operations, viewing and survey. The ""survey"" mode is a standard configuration of forward looking video and lighting, while the ""mosaic"" arrangement employs the cameras and lighting in a fixed downward looking position. A significant component of the Macon Exploration project was to provide for a variety of outreach and educational applications. Aspects of these outreach efforts were achieved using advanced microwave technology, and teacher and educators at sea. This report will summarize the results of the development and use of a low cost MBARI high bandwidth, short-range ship to shore microwave system, and exploiting a live underwater feed to the World Wide Web. All mission goals were accomplished for this project. Over six ROV dives were completed with approximately 50 hours of deep water survey, which were recorded on high definition and Beta tape formats. Researchers completed detailed geo-referenced maps and an inventory of Macon artifacts. Aircraft Bureau numbers were established through identification of aircraft coloring. Complete coverage of both wreckage fields using navigation grade video tile mosaics has been produced. The final imaging portion of this project has required development of improved processing techniques due to the vast amount of data that still needs to be managed in order to complete high resolution finished products. Researchers have determined that there is a significant degradation in the airship aluminum girder structure since the site was last visited 15 years ago, in addition to other changes to the site.

However, ecosystem-based approaches typically use density estimates as surrogates for animal presence and spatial modeling to identify areas for protection and may not take into account daily or seasonal movements of animals. Additionally, sympatric and inter-related species are often managed separately, which may not be cost-effective. This study aims to demonstrate an evidence-based method to inform the biological basis for co-management of two sympatric species, dugongs and green sea turtles. This approach can then be used in conservation planning to delineate areas to maximize species protection. Methodology/Results: Fast-acquisition satellite telemetry was used to track eleven dugongs and ten green turtles at two geographically distinct foraging locations in Queensland, Australia to evaluate the inter-and intra-species spatial relationships and assess the efficacy of existing protection zones. Home-range analysis and bathymetric modeling were used to determine spatial use and compared with existing protection areas using GIS. Dugong and green turtle home-ranges significantly overlapped in both locations. However, both species used different core areas and differences existed between regions in depth zone use and home-range size, especially for dugongs. Both species used existing protection areas in Shoalwater Bay, but only a single tracked dugong used the existing protection area in Torres Strait. Conclusions/Significance:: Fast-acquisition satellite telemetry can provide evidence-based information on individual animal movements to delineate relationships between dugongs and green turtles in regions where they co-occur. This information can be used to increase the efficacy of conservation planning and complement more broadly based survey information. These species also use similar habitats, making complimentary co-management possible, but important differences exist between locations making it essential to customize management. This methodology could be applied on a broader scale to include other sympatric and inter-related species.",,,,6,9,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000336911400113,,,,,,,CHELONIA-MYDAS; DUGONG-DUGON; FORAGING AREA; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; GREEN TURTLES; HOME-RANGE; PROTECTED AREA DESIGN; RESERVE DESIGN; SAMPLE-SIZE; TORRES STRAIT,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Well-designed and effectively managed marine reserve networks can reduce local threats, and contribute to achieving multiple objectives regarding fisheries management, biodiversity conservation and adaptation to changes in climate and ocean chemistry. Previous studies provided advice regarding ecological guidelines for designing marine reserves to achieve one or two of these objectives. While there are many similarities in these guidelines, there are key differences that provide conflicting advice. Thus, there is a need to provide integrated guidelines for practitioners who wish to design marine reserves to achieve all three objectives simultaneously. Scientific advances regarding fish connectivity and recovery rates, and climate and ocean change vulnerability, also necessitate refining advice for marine reserve design. Here we review ecological considerations for marine reserve design, and provide guidelines to achieve all three objectives simultaneously regarding: habitat representation; risk spreading; protecting critical, special and unique areas; reserve size, spacing, location, and duration; protecting climate resilient areas; and minimizing and avoiding threats. In addition to applying ecological guidelines, reserves must be designed to address social and governance considerations, and be integrated within broader fisheries and coastal management regimes. © 2014 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.",,143-159,,2,42,,Coast.

Analysis of candidate sites, according to a combination of geophysical and ecological criteria, can lead to the recognition of representative coastal areas, and can potentially reduce the arbitrary nature of these decisions. In coastal areas, estuaries have long been classified according to their geophysical properties. Bays and coves are at least as diverse in character, yet existing classifications are dependent largely upon description of the benthic communities themselves and take little advantage of existing hydrographic and digital information. The classification of coastal inlets proposed here differs significantly from others previously published. It is based on a fully quantified description and analysis of the basic geomorphological and hydrographic features of the coastal environment, and is designed to represent specific community types including ?-diversity and ?-diversity patterns. The classification, which should be globally applicable, was first applied to Nova Scotia's Atlantic shoreline where inlets fall into 11 recognizable types that are related to selected biological community types. Of these inlet types, only one is sufficiently protected, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature's conservation target of at least 10%. © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,448-461,,5,21,,Aquatic Conserv.

If successful, protected areas have the potential to increase the level of resource rent derived from the extraction of fishery resources. In this paper, a stochastic bioeconomic model of a multi-species fishery is used to test the performance of protected areas as a management tool in a two patch, two species fishery with heterogeneous environments. The differences in the environments occur through each patch having its own growth rates and internal dynamics. Protected areas are analyzed under density-dependent and sink-source dispersal relationships between the environments within the fishery. These relationships define the drivers of the dispersal of biomass, and as such, will influence the outcome from protected area creation. The model is applied to a section of the NSW fishing industry located in the Manning Bioregion. The NSW Government has committed to the establishment of a representative system of marine parks in coastal waters. The aim of protected area creation is to protect unique elements of NSW marine habitats. The primary focus for protected area establishment is not as a tool for fisheries management; however, it is likely to lead to some effects on the NSW commercial fishing industry. In 2004, an assessment of the Manning Self Bioregion, which spans north of the Hunter river to north of Nambucca Heads, was completed and identified an area between Stockton Beach and Wallis Lake as the likely area for a new marine park The results from the model under the assumption homogenous catch show that protected area can be used as a fisheries management tool in the Manning Bioregion under certain conditions. Both the nature and extent of the dispersal from the protected area are key features in determining the economic outcome from protected area creation. The greater the level of dispersal, the greater the benefits from protected area establishment as more of the biomass that occurs within the protected area is likely to flow to the surrounding fishery, offsetting the effects of reduced fishing area. The value of small sized protected areas is enhanced through the density-dependent flows. Under sink-source flows, differences in relative densities do not encourage increased flows from the protected areas due to differences in patch population density, making the level of dispersal more dependent on protected area size. Given this, when sink-source flows are likely, a minimum size protected area is required before benefits to the fishery can be obtained. The creation of a marine protected area in the Manning Bioregion is likely to have different distributional effects on the two fisheries examined in this paper. For the prey fishery, the Ocean Prawn Trawl Fishery, the benefits of protected area creation are limited by the effects of predation. As such, the protected area is less likely to increase harvests and fishery rent post establishment. Further, certain sized protected areas increased the variability of harvests, meaning that overall harvests were not only reduced but more variable. The counter occurred for the predator fishery, the Ocean Trap and Line Fishery, which is more likely to benefit from protected area creation as increased prey and the removal of fishing pressure increased the biomass of targeted species in the fishery. Despite the potential gain, in the open fishing grounds harvests of these species is likely to become more variable. For the two fisheries as a whole, the creation certain sized protected areas can yield some hedge benefits in terms of overall harvests and resource rent. However, for this to occur, a minimum size is required. Small sized protected areas are less likely to yield hedge benefits to the fishery, with medium to large more likely. The reason for this is that smaller sized protected areas do not increase biomass greatly above exploited levels, reducing the ability for biomass in the protected area to reduce normal fluctuations in populations caused through environmental stochasticity.",,2554-2560,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: MODSIM - Int.

It has long been recognized as having one of the most diversified biotas on the planet, with high levels of endemism of plants and animals. Due to its location, European colonization and exploration began six centuries ago in the coastal areas, spreading to the interior and increasing over the last 70 years. In response to long-standing deforestation, many conservation actions have been planned and performed by federal and state governments, NGOs, and universities. Here, we compiled some of these initiatives, showing the conservationists' goals and multi-institutional actions to save species and ecosystems across the Brazilian Atlantic Forest.

Under both Commonwealth and State legislation, as well as through international obligations of the World Heritage Area listing, management of the marine park is committed to the ecologically sustainable development of fisheries, and most importantly, conservation of their supporting ecosystems. In the current study the basic Gribble (2000) ""GBR prawn"" ECOPATH trophic model was expanded into a ""linked-ecosystems"" model, which considered the biodiversity and connecting biomass flows within and between (1) mangrove, (2) lagoon-seagrass, and (3) coral reef systems. The GBR linked-ecosystem model is an equilibrium trophic hierarchy, with the biomass flows balanced such that there are not more predators than prey to feed them, nor conversely are there ""wasted"" prey with insufficient predators to exploit the available resource. Thirty-two trophic guilds were modelled, including 25 from the original ""GBR prawn"" model (Gribble, 2003), plus inshore finfish species groupings and juvenile life-history stages. This spectrum represents a generalised food-web that attempts to capture the major biomass dynamics and flows within the component GBR systems. The model was implemented by means of ECOPATH EwE (version 5 beta) software using the ECOSIM and ECOSPACE routines for temporal and spatial simulations respectively. The particular application for the model was to identify the effects of the major fisheries in each of the component systems, and the possible confounding effects of independently developed fisheries management plans. Accordingly, long-term temporal simulations of the GBR linked ecosystem model explored the interactions across the line, gillnet and trawl fisheries, and highlighted a number of issues. In both the Sea turtle and Barramundi trophic guilds there were significant interactions between fisheries that are important to the management of these stocks. It appears that there is not a simple intuitive link between fishing pressure and biomass of some targeted species, but a more complex ""food-web"" effect. Targeting of fish or prawn aggregations by commercial fishers reduces the efficacy of logbook catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) as an index of abundance or biomass because the reported catch rate reflects only the densities of fish or prawns within the aggregation or school, not the unbiased estimate of abundance obtained if the population was randomly sampled. Therefore it would be expected that the biomass trajectory predicted by the ecosystem model and by the logbook data would show a reasonably poor fit, as was evident in this study. This result has implications for the reliability of traditional single-species ""surplus-production"" stock assessment models that use CPUE to model the maximum sustainable yield of a fishery. Fisheries management plans are currently formulated as stand-alone initiatives that concentrate on the sustainable harvest of target species (usually derived from single-species models), and have little regard for other fisheries that may be directly affected or for indirect ecosystem effects. At present, techniques are lacking to determine the cumulative ecosystem effects of these separate plans or to identify synergies or antagonisms between plans. Consequently the ultimate aim of this study was to produce an ""environmental audit"" tool for assessing and integrating proposed fisheries management plans for this critical ""World Heritage"" ecosystem.",,2561-2567,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: MODSIM - Int.

Northern and southern borders of the closure were subject to edge effects as trawlers over-ran their hauls, legally started in the adjacent open zones. There was considerable illegal trawling inshore along a north-south navigation channel running through the area-closure. The middle and outer regions of the closure were originally denied to trawlers because of 'rough ground' but this is probably no longer the case since the general adoption of advanced navigation aids (GPS). The area least likely to have been heavily trawled is the central mid-shelf section of the closure in a region of uncharted shoal reefs. Many trawlers fish in the accessible sections of the closure on a casual or incidental basis but approximately 47 boats do so on a consistent basis. An estimated yearly total of 3260 days illegal trawling occurs, giving an approximate estimate of 69 days illegal trawling per regular offender. The implications of this level of noncompliance are the probable invalidation of the original objectives of conservation and maintenance of a pristine reference area in all but the central section of the closure. Management of marine world heritage areas requires the acknowledgement that the harvesting of fish, prawns and other living resources may be an established use of the Marine Park but it also requires a combination of education plus the adoption of effective monitoring technology, such as satellite vessel monitoring systems, to stop or at least reduce unauthorized fishing.",,53-67,,1,52,,J.

While readily used in terrestrial ecology, RSFs have yet to be extensively used within marine systems. As acoustic telemetry continues to be a pervasive approach within marine environments, incorporation of RSFs can provide new insights to help prioritize habitat protection and restoration to meet conservation goals. To overcome statistical hurdles and achieve high prediction accuracy, machine learning algorithms could be paired with RSFs to predict relative habitat selection for a species within and even outside the monitoring range of acoustic receiver arrays, making this a valuable tool for marine ecologists and resource managers. Here, we apply RSFs using machine learning to an acoustic telemetry dataset of four shark species to explore and predict species-specific habitat selection within a marine protected area. In addition, we also apply this RSF-machine learning approach to investigate predator-prey relationships by comparing and averaging tiger shark relative selection values with the relative selection values derived for eight potential prey-species. We provide methodological considerations along with a framework and flexible approach to apply RSFs with machine learning algorithms to acoustic telemetry data and suggest marine ecologists and resource managers consider adopting such tools to help guide both conservation and management strategies. © Copyright © 2021 Griffin, Casselberry, Hart, Jordaan, Becker, Novak, DeAngelis, Pollock, Lundgren, Hillis-Starr, Danylchuk and Skomal.",,,,,8,,Front.

While detection profiles of subadult M. atlanticus (n = 11) varied in residency and dispersal patterns, all adult M. atlanticus detection profiles (n = 47) exhibited seasonal residency. The median spring-summer residence period of adult M. atlanticus ranged from 40 to 60 d, with a mean of 51 d across years. At the individual level, repeatability in the timing of arrival and duration were high across years, suggesting that photoperiod may be an important migratory cue. Further, the repeatability in the timing of arrival to the Florida Keys for individuals was not associated with sea surface temperature (SST). At the population level, residency corresponded with the spawning season, with the majority of adult M. atlanticus arriving in April once SST reached 26 degrees C, and then departing in June (27-29 degrees C). Highest occupancy probabilities for adult M atlanticus occurred in May (26-28 degrees C) and lowest between August and October. Large aggregations of M. atlanticus that occur during the spawning season (April-June) are potentially vulnerable to the effects of habitat degradation and angling-related mortality and behavioral changes.

This is especially the case of the indirect effects of hunting on the behaviour of target as well as non-target species. Here we analyze how hunting affected the spatial behaviour of 62 radiocollared roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) in a protected area adjacent to areas where hunting with hounds (target species: wild boar and hares) and stalking with rifles from high seats without dogs (target species: roe deer) were permitted during the hunting season. Our results showed that hunting caused a significant increase in the home range size of monitored deer, as well as a "" reserve effect"", whereby roe deer used the protected area as a refuge from hunters. These behavioural responses were significant only at times when hunting with hounds was conducted, even though roe deer was not the target species of this technique. Reactions to the perceived risk of predation varied among age and sex classes, with yearling being more sensitive and using the protected area more than adults. As shown in our study, hunting harassment provoked by drives with hounds significantly affects the behaviour of non-target species. Therefore, the use of long-legged hounds represents a variable that should be carefully evaluated by wildlife managers in their management plans and conservation policies, especially when endangered or vulnerable species are present. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,641-649,,1,144,,Biol.

In the Western Indian Ocean (WIO), MPA networks are being created to meet top-down, internationally defined MPA targets, while simultaneously there is a strong regional focus on bottom-up, community-based marine management. These apparently contradictory trends can be bridged through networks of community-based MPAs. To explore whether institutional interplay affects the success of such MPA networks, and to provide guidance for MPA-making in the WIO, the literature on ten geographically diverse MPA networks with community-based MPAs was reviewed. Because this is a first exploration into the topic, not all causal links between institutional interplay and MPA effectiveness could be confirmed, neither was any indication of interplay-related costs found. However, the analysis suggests that institutional interplay is generally concerned with information exchanges and issues of control and authority and seemed to have positive effects on MPA success. As MPA networks expand in the WIO, MPA practitioners and managers in the region may consider different forms of institutional interplay to be tailored to their specific management and financial contexts. © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.",,440-458,,4,39,,Coast.

There is a need for a stronger and enforced coordination between fishing and conservation authorities when establishing marine protected areas for conservation purposes. We propose that an appropriate instrument for such coordination is a broad ecosystem-based marine spatial planning procedure, representing neither nature conservation nor fishery. Strategic environmental assessment for plans and programmes and environmental impact assessment for projects are commonly used tools for assessing the environmental impacts of different human activities, but are seldom used for evaluating the environmental effects of capture fisheries. The diversity of fisheries and the drastic effects of some fisheries on the environment are strong arguments for introducing these procedures as valuable supplements to existing fisheries assessment and management tools and able to provide relevant environmental information for an overall marine spatial planning process. Marine protected areas for nature conservation and for protection of fisheries have different objectives. Therefore, the legal procedure when establishing marine protected areas should depend on whether they are established for nature conservation purposes or as a fisheries resource management tool. Fishing in a marine protected area for conservation purpose should be regulated according to conservation law. Also, we argue that marine protected areas for conservation purposes, in the highest protection category, should primarily be established as fully protected marine national parks and marine reserves. © 2019, The Author(s).",,1328-1340,,7,49,,Ambio,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer,,,,biodiversity; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION; COASTAL; conservation management; Conservation of Natural Resources; DESIGN; ecosystem; Ecosystem; ECOSYSTEM; Ecosystem-based management; environmental impact assessment; environmental protection; Fisheries; fishery; Fishery; fishing; GOVERNANCE; human; human activities; Human Activities; human activity; Humans; INTEGRATION; MANAGEMENT; marine environment; Marine nature conservation; marine park; Marine protected area; Marine spatial planning; nature conservation; PERSPECTIVES; PRINCIPLES; protected area; PROTECTED AREAS; resource management; spatial planning,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

During several recent MPA designation processes, concerns have arisen over the scientific justification for no-take MPAs, particularly those that restrict recreational fishing for pelagic species. An important question is: under what conditions might recreational pelagic fishing be compatible with the conservation goals of an MPA that is primarily focused on benthic communities? In 2005, an expert workshop of fisheries biologists, marine ecologists, MPA managers, and recreational fishermen was convened by NOAAs National MPA Center to evaluate the limited empirical data on benthic-pelagic coupling and to help provide practical advice on this topic. The participants (i) proposed a preliminary conceptual framework for addressing vertical zoning, (ii) developed preliminary guidelines to consider when evaluating whether to allow or restrict pelagic fishing in an MPA, and (iii) identified future research priorities for understanding benthic-pelagic coupling. A suite of ecological conditions where recreational pelagic fishing may not be compatible with benthic conservation were identified: (1) high relief habitats, (2) depths shallower than 50-100 m (depending upon the specific location), (3) major topographic and oceanographic features, and (4) spawning areas. Similarly, pelagic fishing is not likely to affect benthic communities adversely in many circumstances.

In order to preserve marine biodiversity, ecosystem function, and the goods and services provided by resistant and/or resilient systems, marine reserves have been increasingly recommended as part of an ecosystem-based approach to management (Browman and Stergiou, 2004; Levin et al., 2009). Marine reserves are defined as “areas of the ocean completely protected from all extractive and destructive activities” (Lubchenco et al., 2003) and can be experimental controls for evaluating the impact of these activities on marine ecosystems. Growing scientific information has shown consistent increases in species density, biomass, size, and diversity in response to full protection inside reserves of varying sizes and ages located in diverse regions (Claudet et al., 2008; Lester et al., 2009; Molloy et al., 2009). However, most of these data are from individual marine reserves and therefore have inherently limited transferability to networks of marine reserves, which when properly designed can outperform single marine reserves for a variety of ecological, economic, and social management goals (Roberts et al., 2003; Almany et al., 2009; Gaines et al., 2010). The concept of marine reserve networks grew out of a desire to achieve both conservation and fishery management goals by minimizing the potential negative economic, social, and cultural impacts of a single large reserve while still producing similar or even greater ecological and economic returns (Murray et al., 1999; Gaines et al., 2010). In addition, reserves networks can provide insurance by protecting areas across a region and spreading the risk that these sites may be impacted by localized catastrophes such as hurricanes or oil spills (Allison et al., 2003). The World Conservation Union’s Marine Programme defines a network as “a collection of individual marine protected areas (MPAs) or reserves operating co-operatively and synergistically, at various spatial scales and with a range of protection levels that are designed to meet objectives that a single reserve cannot achieve” (IUCN–WCPA, 2008). However, general terms such as “co-operatively” and “synergistically” can have myriad meanings. Without a clear definition of a network, it becomes difficult to identify attainable management goals and design a process for evaluating whether the network achieves those goals. Besides, different management goals may in turn result in the need for different types of networks. The use of MPAs with varying protection levels together with no-take zones in multiple-zoning schemes adds another layer of complexity to network design and evaluation; however, partially protected areas are generally used to manage coastal uses and avoid conflicts (rather than for strict ecological purposes) and are therefore a function of the local social, economic, and cultural context. As we are here interested in the ecological effects of networks, for the purposes of this chapter, we focus on marine reserves because these areas are no-take and therefore offer greater ecological benefits than other types of MPAs that allow some forms of extraction (Lester and Halpern, 2008). © Cambridge University Press 2011.",,293-321,,,,,,,,,,,Cambridge University Press,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Marine Protected Areas: A Multidisciplinary Approach DOI: 10.1017/CBO9781139049382.016,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Since it began in 2014, the Our Ocean Conference (OOC) has become a high-profile platform to announce ocean commitments. To evaluate the impact of these promises, this analysis asked: (1) What are the MPA commitments? (2) Who is making them? (3) Have these announcements been followed by action? and (4) Have they contributed significantly to ocean protection? A systematic review of the 143 MPA announcements made at the four OOCs between 2014 and 2017 (and the 202 individual actions they encompassed) concluded that the numbers and sectors of announcers, as well as the types of actions, increased over time. Fifty-two countries and 52 other organizations made OOC commitments, 46% of which have been completed and 56% of which are still incomplete. Thirteen countries and 17 organizations have completed all of their actions. All organizations and 48 out of 52 countries have made some progress on their actions, but no evidence of progress could be found for actions from four countries. OOC announcements have promised to protect 3.4% of the ocean (12,279,931 km2). To date, 43% of that promised area has been implemented, with another 57% yet to be implemented. Based on these findings, a number of actions are recommended to improve the clarity and traceability of OOC announcements, facilitate the monitoring of outcomes, and deliver on the promise of accountability emphasized at the OOCs. © 2019 The Authors",,52-66,,,105,,Mar.

European conservation strategies are mainly confined to protected areas, and many national initiatives aiming for comprehensive coverage suffer from long and irregular monitoring intervals. Addressing this, we propose a data-driven approach to derive information about the location, extent and HNV status of grasslands to improve the efficiency of large-scale field mappings. Serving as a representative example of European and national grassland monitoring, we utilize the regional habitat map of Schleswig-Holstein, Germany, in conjunction with Harmonized Landsat Sentinel-2 time series data to train XGBoost models for the period of 2017-2022. Our models achieved high classification performance, distinguishing eight grassland classes with average F1-scores of 0.89 before and 0.86 after feature selection. We examined model decision-making patterns using an adapted version of SHapley Additive exPlanation values, finding that start-of-season, end-of-season, Red-Edge, and spectral change features significantly impacted predictions. We produced annual HNV grassland maps and, by aggregating yearly results, derived a robust estimate of the HNV status in our study area. Applying our HNV estimate to an independent dataset comprising 2363 km2 of grassland plots with unknown HNV status, we identified 84 km2 as HNV, highlighting the significance of our result. Overall, our study demonstrates how integrating remote sensing data enhances the efficiency and comprehensiveness of large-scale mapping initiatives. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,37,,Remote Sens. Appl.

Such interactions influence perceptions of nature and promote or undermine conservation. Despite their importance, human–wildlife interactions are rarely considered in ecosystem-based marine spatial planning (MSP). Ideally, these interactions should be identified and considered in ecosystem-based management (EBM), which is often purported to be the basis for MSP. We used Marxan software and data from a citizen science project documenting location, species, age, sex, and activity type to identify regions along Israel's coast with a high probability of encounters between people and 2 species of guitarfish. We considered the geographic distribution of these encounters and the various activities undertaken by the reporting observers. We ran 4 scenarios in Marxan. Two had conservation goals of 30% and 50% guitarfish habitat protection. In the third and fourth scenarios, we added a 50% conservation goal of human leisure activities to each guitarfish conservation goal. We also conducted a gap analysis between our guitarfish conservation goals and the Israel Nature and Parks Authority's master plan for marine protected areas. We found the park authority was close to meeting the 30% goal but was far from meeting the conservation goal of 50% of guitarfish habitat conservation. Different human uses were more likely to interact with different life stages of guitarfish, and different recreational activities occurred in different areas. Identifying areas of specific human use showed which activities should be addressed in conservation management decisions. Our addition of certain recreational uses to the model of habitat conservation showed how enhancing human dimensions in conservation planning can lead to more holistic ecosystem-based conservation necessary for effective marine planning. © 2024 The Author(s).

Here, the recent modelling literature on MPA effects for mobile fish populations and their fisheries is reviewed. Modelling studies conducted since 2011 have filled a considerable number of knowledge gaps on the impacts of MPAs for species exhibiting home-range behaviour, nomadic movements or behavioural polymorphism, and on the effects of ""targeted MPAs"", which aim to protect relatively small areas where migratory fishes spend an inordinate fraction of time or are highly vulnerable to fishing (e.g., nursery or spawning zones). Also, in recent years, two studies investigated the consequences of MPAs targeting highly migratory (tuna-like) fish populations for the first time in the history of MPA modelling. Recent modelling studies found that MPAs aimed at protecting mobile species may have positive conservation eff ects under a relatively wide range of situations, but may generate long-term fisheries benefits only under a very limited set of conditions. In particular, MPAs were not found to be beneficial for the fisheries targeting highly migratory populations. Strategies producing both conservation and fisheries benefits were identified, which depend on fish movement patterns and numerous aspects of fish life history and fisheries dynamics. However, in view of the diversity of fish movement patterns in MPA systems and current dynamics in resource management, it is clear that additional modelling work is needed to fully understand how protected areas aff ect mobile fish populations and their fisheries and to be able to implement pertinent MPAs. In particular, future modelling studies should systematically assess the effects of MPAs in relation to other management tools to find strategies that are most eff ective in meeting management objectives, and explore the impacts of ""dynamic"" MPAs that follow highly migratory fish populations in space and time. © EDP Sciences, IFREMER, IRD 2015.",,107-133,,03-Apr,27,,Aquatic Living Resour.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: EDP Sciences,,,,behavioral ecology; Conservation targets; exploitation; Fisheries yields; fishery management; fishery modeling; home range; marine park; Marine protected areas; Marine reserves; Migratory populations; migratory species; Mobile fish populations; Modelling; Pisces; polymorphism; Resource conservation; Scombridae,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

There is a need to identify the juvenile and spawner hotspots of these populations that could be set aside as MPAs. Species distribution models making comprehensive use of available monitoring data and predicting the realized juvenile and spawner hotspots of migratory fish populations will assist resource managers with MPA planning. We developed a statistical modelling approach relying on multiple, regional monitoring datasets for assisting spatial protection efforts targeting the juveniles, spawners, or both life stages, of migratory fish species and species complexes. This approach predicts juvenile and spawner hotspot indices, and critical life stage (CLS) hotspot indices, which integrate both juvenile and spawner hotspot indices. We applied the approach to 11 vulnerable species of the grouper–snapper complex of the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, which all form fish spawning aggregations (FSAs). The CLS hotspot index was predicted to be highest in the Pulley Ridge and Flower Garden Banks areas, followed by the West Florida Shelf, southwestern Florida waters and portions of the Louisiana-Mississippi-Alabama shelf. The Pulley Ridge Habitat Area of Particular Concern and Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary are two important existing MPAs of the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, whose possible expansion is being considered. The predicted CLS hotspot indices suggest that expanding these MPAs or increasing harvest regulations within them would offer substantial protection to both the juveniles and spawners of many FSA-forming species of the grouper–snapper complex. Synthesis and applications. As the number of marine protected areas (MPAs) continues to increase worldwide, statistical modelling approaches making comprehensive use of available data are urgently needed to support resource managers’ abilities to establish sound and efficient spatial protection plans. The outputs of our statistical models can serve as inputs to conservation planning software packages seeking optimal marine protected areas configurations or can be directly employed by resource managers for formulating spatial protection plans. © 2019 The Authors.

This fishery targets Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni), which has an ontogenically-segregated life-history spanning both the RSrMPA and areas fully open to fishing. Here, we present a spatially-explicit population model for RSr Antarctic toothfish, which we use to run projections to evaluate the impacts of the RSrMPA for the species. We considered six alternative scenarios, which consisted of the combination of two spatial management scenarios (MPA versus no-MPA situations) and three different spatial patterns of future fishing. The same CCAMLR decision rules were employed to determine a total catch limit in each case. Our results indicate that access to productive fishing grounds continues to exist with the RSrMPA, the total catch limit and fishery catch rates are not impacted, and the RSrMPA specific objectives relating to Antarctic toothfish are being met. The no-take fraction of the RSrMPA (the “General Protection Zones”) protects areas of ecological importance for the species (juvenile settlement areas, migration corridors for maturing individuals, and adult feeding areas), while the partial-take fraction of the MPA (the “Special Research Zone”) allows for the continuity and integrity of a critical tagging program.

Reef fish spawning aggregations (""FSAs"") are often heavily exploited, which make them targets for management with marine reserves. We used a per-recruit model to compare the long-term conservation (impacts on female spawning-stock biomass-per-recruit (SSBR) and female: male sex ratio, SR) and fisheries effects (impacts on yield-per-recruit, YPR) of spawning reserves vs. normal residence reserves for two data-poor populations from Seychelles with contrasting life history traits and sexual modes: the Siganus sutor population of the main granitic islands, which has a fast life history and is gonochoristic and the Epinephelus fuscoguttatus population of Farquhar Atoll, which has a slow life history and is protogynous. Overall, our results suggest that normal residence reserves are more effective at improving both the SSBR and YPR of S. sutor. In contrast, the protection of a substantial fraction of spawning sites is preferable for E. fuscoguttatus to ensure the reproductive output of this protogynous population through normalization of SR and maintenance of high SSBR. Neither spawning reserves nor normal residence reserves improved the YPR of E. fuscoguttatus. However, yields of E. fuscoguttatus may increase on the long term via recruitment subsidy if a substantial fraction of spawning sites is protected. This may occur only if the population was recruitment limited in the absence of reserves and increases in SSBR compensate for lost opportunities caused by the area closures. Sensitivity analyses revealed that the relative effects of spawning reserves and normal residence reserves relate more to the change in catchability occurring with FSA formation than to life history traits. Thus, normal residence reserves should be preferred over spawning reserves for S. sutor essentially because its catchability at spawning sites is low relative to many other aggregation-forming populations. S. sutor therefore suffers higher fishing mortality in normal residence areas than at FSA sites. Our study demonstrates that spawning reserves are not always the most effective tool for balancing conservation and exploitation objectives for FSA-forming populations, and that this measure should ideally be weighed against other management options. © 2014 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.",,480-497,,2,72,,ICES J.

Here, we review the observed and likely effectiveness of FSAMPAs, discuss how future studies could fill knowledge gaps, and provide recommendations for MPA design based on species' life history and behaviour, enforcement potential, and management goals. Modelling studies indicate that FSA MPAs can increase spawning-stock biomass and normalize sex ratio in protogynous fish populations, unless fishing mortality remains high outside protected FSA sites and spawning times. In the field, observations of no change or continued decline in spawning biomass are more common than population recovery. When empirical studies suggest that FSA MPAs may not benefit fish productivity or recovery, extenuating factors such as insufficient time since MPA creation, poor or lack of enforcement, inadequate design, and poorly defined management objectives are generally blamed rather than failure of the MPA concept. Results from both the empirical and modelling literature indicate that FSA MPAs may not improve exploitable biomass and fisheries yields; however, investigations are currently too limited to draw conclusions on this point. To implement effective FSA MPAs, additional modelling work, long-term monitoring programmes at FSA sites, and collections of fisheries-dependent data are required, with greater attention paid to the design and enforcement of area closures. We recommend a harmonized, adaptive approach that combines FSA MPA design with additional management measures to achieve explicitly stated objectives. Conservation objectives and, therefore, an overall reduction in mortality rates should be targeted first. Fisheries objectives build on conservation objectives, in that they require an overall reduction in mortality rates while maintaining sufficient access to exploitable biomass. Communication among researchers, regulatory agencies, park authorities, and fishers will be paramount for effective action, along with significant funds for implementation and enforcement. © International Council for the Exploration of the Sea 2014.

To evaluate the ability of certified rodent dogs (Canis familiaris) to locate Norway rats (Rattus norvegicus) and mice (Mus musculus) or their scent trails at very low densities in field conditions. Methods. We experimentally tested two rodent dogs by releasing small numbers of laboratory rats and mice in a 63ha rodent-free forest sanctuary and then determining if the dogs and their handlers could find the rodents and their scent trails. We divided the enclosure into two halves, east and west of the midpoint, and alternated releases daily between the two areas to minimise residual scent between consecutive trials. Radio-tagged rats or mice were released a total of 96 times at random locations that were unknown to handlers, followed for 50100m, then caught and either placed in hidden cages at the end of the scent trail or removed from the forest. Handlers and their dogs had up to 6h to search for rodents. Key Results. Despite the extremely low density of rodents in the effective research area of 32ha, both dogs were highly successful at finding rodents, together locating 87% of rats and 80% of mice. Handlers reported few false positive detections. We found that well-trained dogs can effectively cover 3040ha of steep forested habitat in half a day (6h). Conclusions. Despite the limitations of our study design, we conclude that well-trained rodent dogs may be able to locate wild rodents at low densities in forest situations. Implications. Our results support the ongoing use of certified dogs to detect rodent survivors and invaders in conservation areas in New Zealand and elsewhere. Additional research is required to trial dogs on experimentally released wild rodents and to compare the cost-effectiveness of dogs with other detection methods. © CSIRO 2010.",,39-46,,1,37,,Wildl.

Historically, green peafowl were widely distributed across Southern China, but now its range is restricted to a few locations in Yunnan Province. There have been several studies that described the status and ecological traits of green peafowl in China, however, key information relating to population size and its adaptations to anthropogenic disturbance is still poorly understood. Furthermore, the green peafowl in Southeast Asia has also experienced drastic decline in both population size and distribution in the past 50 years. The studies on green peafowls’ biology, ecology, and conservation planning in Southeast Asia could inform related research and conservation strategies in China. In this paper, we reviewed previous studies related to green peafowls’ ecology and conservation research, and summarized green peafowls’ population dynamics, habitat use and interspecific interactions with sympatric species in China and Southeast Asia. Based on these results, we proposed suggestions for future research and conservation planning. Review Results: The wild population of green peafowl has less than 500 individuals in China, only distributed in Yunnan Province. In Southeast Asia, green peafowl is distributed in four strong-holds in Indo-China Peninsula and Java Island, in which the Eastern Plains landscape on the border of Cambodia and Vietnam holds the largest habitat and population. Studies conducted in Southeast Asia revealed that green peafowls had strong dependence on water resources and were associated with tropical dry forest, but were absent in tropical rain forest. They often herd with large ungulates such as banteng (Bos javanicus). Studies on habitat use demonstrated a significant variation in habitat use between dry and rainy season. Tiger (Panthera tigris), leopard (P. pardus), Asiatic golden cat (Catopuma temminckii) and civets (Viverridae spp.) were recognized as the green peafowl’s main predators. Poaching and habitat loss resulting from agriculture expansion and infrastructure construction are the main anthropogenic threats to green peafowls. Perspectives: We suggest that a long-term monitoring network combining camera trap and sign transect surveys are important for the conservation of green peafowl. Molecular biology can also help understand the conservation genetics of green peafowl. Most importantly, we strongly recommend that new protected areas along the river valleys of upper Red River where large habitat patches of tropical dry forest remain should be established. Patrols in green peafowl habitat should be enforced to protect against poaching. Furthermore, restoration of degenerated green peafowls’ habitats should be initiated. Finally, Indian peafowl (Pavo cristatus) farms should be prohibited in and around green peafowl habitat in order to prevent genetic contamination. © 2021, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Here we monitored recreational fishery landings (angling and spearfishing) and assessed the reef fish community through underwater visual censuses in Trindade, an isolated oceanic island in the southwestern Atlantic Ocean. The study was conducted in zones of high and low fishing effort, along three different years spread over a seven-year period. We found high catch per unit effort (CPUE; kg*fisher?1*hour?1) associated with high fishing intensity. However, the biomass of the targeted species in the natural environment decreased by 58% over time, while fishing effort increased about 270%, and CPUE decreased by 40%. Inverse relationships between effort and CPUE, and effort and biomass in the environment, were stronger in zones of high fishing effort. We conclude that the recreational fishery activity quickly responded to overfishing, creating a harvesting process that negatively impacted reef fish communities in this isolated oceanic island. Thus, conservation strategies should incorporate long-term recreational catch and fish community monitoring programs. Here we discuss options for the sustainability of the recreational fisheries and reinforce the importance of dialogue among scientists, managers and users for the achievement of conservation goals. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,191,,Ocean Coast.

They did not provide detailed arguments, but considered the existence of AS states as a given. Conversely, May, in his 1977 Nature article, pointed out that, when applied to systems that are complex, “the [AS states] theory remains largely metaphorical”. This is the starting point of this critical review, which aims to re-examine the general theory behind AS states in ecological systems and its applications to marine ecology and conservation. The focus is first on theory, taking as examples communities that sustain competition and studying the relative importance of the fluxes of individuals between simple low-dimension, interconnected systems. We find that a minimal formulation of fluxes is sufficient to obtain a set of non-null multiple stable (MS) states and to trigger shifts between AS states when fluxes become large enough. This provides new insights into the theory of rescue and mass effects by distinguishing them through a threshold at which the system dynamics shift from one stable equilibrium to another. Then, we consider how the theoretical framework of AS states has been applied in marine environments. It appears that many applications have confounded shifts between AS states and changes in the structure of systems, particularly when the complexity of the systems increases. The main difficulty for any application remains that the concepts of MS and AS states can only be established and validated for low-dimension systems and simplified experiments. This is because the mathematical properties of models that describe large-dimension, complex systems deviate from the observed characteristics of their real-world counterparts. There are many intriguing scientific challenges around the plausible shifts between AS states, but a deeper understanding and characterization of their occurrence in nature would require a significant investment in modeling to formulate predictive ecosystem models. © 2024 by the authors.",,,,2,12,,J.

This entails the creation of artificial biocenoses, the peculiarity of which is that they cannot exist without anthropogenic intervention. Unfortunately, irrational use of natural resources leads to a violation of the ecological state and negative consequences. Such a negative effect is the plowing of floodplain territories of water bodies and their water protection zones. Animal husbandry in floodplain areas also entails degradation of vegetation cover of water protection zones, which can lead to erosion of the coastline, siltation and changes in morphometric characteristics of the coastline. Monitoring of water systems, due to the increasing anthropogenic load in the last decade, has received quite extensive scientific attention, both in the Russian scientific literature and abroad, which emphasizes the relevance of the study. The aim of the study is to assess the current ecological state of coastal and water protection zones of water bodies based on remote sensing data. Methods. The model territory of the Stavropol Territory (Krasnogvardeysky municipal district) is analyzed. The use of geoinformation technologies made it possible to assess the state of coastal territories over the past 10 years using the cartographic method and retrospective analysis. In total, 112 violations of water protection legislation were identified during the study, expressed in the plowing of floodplains and coastal zones of water bodies. The area of violations, which is 96.9 hectares, has been established. Results. The proposed methodology for the study and assessment of the ecological state of coastal protection and water protection zones can be used for other territories of the Stavropol Territory for a more complete study of the state of coastal territories, as well as its inclusion in the work of control and supervisory authorities. © 2022, Geophysical Institute of the Vladikavkaz Scientific Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Fisheries activities are rarely documented in the marine and coastal protected areas in Turkey. This study aimed to determine the catch composition of set longline fishery in the Foça Special Environmental Protection Area (Turkey), and to understand the effects of factors (e.g., bait type, hook size, and soak time) on the catch per unit effort (CPUE) and the size of species caught. Material and methods. Samples were collected by small-scale fishing boats in 2007 at depths ranging from 1 to 50 m. Kruskal–Wallis test was used to understand if the CPUE changes depended on the fishery specific factors (hook size and bait type). Mann–Whitney U test was used to test if CPUE changes depended on sampling seasons (autumn and summer). Chi-square test was used to determine whether hook size influenced the body size of two commonly caught species. Results. The following 25 fish species were caught, Diplodus sargus, Sparus aurata, Diplodus vulgaris, Boops boops, Lithognathus mormyrus, Oblada melanura, Conger conger, Trachurus sp., Spondyliosoma cantharus, Pagellus erythrinus, Pagrus pagrus, Dentex dentex, Sciaena umbra, Scorpaena scrofa, Belone belone, Serranus sp., Myliobatidae gen. sp., Muraena helena, Sarpa salpa, Diplodus annularis, Coryphaena hippurus, Diplodus puntazzo, Chelidonichthys lucerna, Scomber japonicus, and Dicentrarchus labrax. The most commonly caught species were white seabream, Diplodus sargus and gilthead seabream Sparus aurata. The hook size and bait type were important factors that influenced the CPUE. Moreover, the hook size significantly influenced the body size of caught white seabream and gilthead sea bream. Conclusions. The discard level was low in the set longline fishery in the Foça Special Environmental Protection Area. We recommend using 12 sized hooks rather than 13 to reduce the discards of the main target species in the Foça SEPA. Nevertheless, this also needs an economic assessment, and also identification and use any incentives to promote the shift in the use of larger size hooks. Minimum size limits to be set in the fisheries legislation and alternative bait use studies were also recommended. © 2020, Scientific Society of Szczecin.

Location: Caatinga region, north-eastern Brazil. Methods: We revised and georeferenced 7352 snake occurrence records at point localities, by direct examination of voucher specimens in zoological collections and revision of literature data. We tested two predictions of the vicariance model via biotic element analysis using two datasets (all taxa and endemics) mapped onto a 1° × 1° square grid across the Caatinga. Finally, we examined the overlap between recovered biogeographical units and spatial patterns of habitat loss and protected area coverage. Results: We recorded 112 snake species from the Caatinga, of which 22 (20%) are endemics. The predictions of the vicariance model were corroborated by the detection of groups of species with significantly clustered ranges (biotic elements). The analysis with the full dataset detected eight biotic elements, and three endemic biotic elements were found when only using endemics. The three endemic biotic elements correspond to core areas of biotic elements detected with the larger dataset. The average habitat loss for species forming biotic elements was 46%, and was similar among biotic elements. Protected area coverage is different for species from different biotic elements, and most species' ranges are very poorly represented in protected areas. Main conclusions: The Caatinga harbours a peculiar snake fauna with significantly clustered species ranges concordant with the predictions of the vicariance model. Our results, representing the first formal test of vicariance patterns in the Caatinga, detected poor overlap between biotic elements and protected areas, indicating that biogeographical patterns and processes are largely unprotected in this imperilled and neglected Neotropical region. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,919-931,,5,41,,J.

Whereas more than 11 percent of land is protected, less than 1 percent of marine space is similarly protected. Transboundary networks of marine protected areas and transboundary marine protected areas (TBMPAs) are an essential form of cooperation for meeting these international targets. This paper explores the diplomatic and political options for regional and sub-regional cooperation between Tanzania, Mozambique, and South Africa, for the establishment of transboundary conservation mechanisms in the Eastern African Marine Ecoregion (EAME). Five options for the establishment and management of these mechanisms are presented, together with actions to be taken to facilitate cooperation. The paper deal with a proposed strategy for the implementation of transboundary conservation mechanisms, focusing on TBMPAs, between the three countries at a biogeographical/sub-regional level, supported by lessons learnt in other transboundary marine conservation experiences. The paper concludes that although political will may exist among States sharing borders to establish TBMPAs, the complexity of dealing with sub-regional realities is a difficult obstacle to overcome in a single step. The situation at each border must be taken into account in order that different multi-scale and multivariate solutions, supported by a common baseline will ultimately converge in a common trilateral framework. Finally, a two-step approach seems to be in course with the declaration (October 2009) of a TBMPA linking Ponta do Ouro in Mozambique to iSimangaliso Wetland Park in South Africa, following one of the options formerly presented. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,896-910,,5,34,,Mar.

Findings highlighted that the WDE population has potential to expand in the NKNP, due to an underutilized capacity.

We present a theoretical framework that provides a new perspective on the science underlying the design of marine reserve networks. Coastal marine systems may be usefully considered as metacommunities in which propagules are exchanged among components, and in which the persistence of one species depends on that of others. Our results suggest that the large-scale distribution of marine species can be dynamic and can result from local ecological processes. We discuss the potential implications of these findings for marine reserve design and the need for long-term monitoring programs to validate predictions from metacommunity models.

Due to long-range atmospheric transport, environmental persistence and toxicological potential of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs), similar characteristics of current-use pesticides (CUPs) and their massive use in Brazil, these contaminants have become a major concern for environmental and human life. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate subgroups or individual chemicals of OCPs and CUPs, which could have travelled over two Conservation Unit sites in the Rio de Janeiro state. The study was carried out for 24 months, (2013–2015), in Itatiaia National Park (INP) and in the Serra dos Órgăos National Park (SONP), at ?2400 and ?2200 meters above sea level, respectively. The study was based on atmospheric passive sampling (polyurethane foam disks). Target pesticides were detected by means of gas chromatography device coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Significantly higher concentrations were measured in SONP when compared to INP. However, in broad terms, the contamination profile was quite similar for both national parks: The highest concentrations of endosulfan (INP - 1275 pg m?3 and SONP - 3202 pg m?3) were followed by cypermethrin (INP - 148 pg m?3 and SONP - 881 pg m?3) and chlorpyrifos (INP - 67 pg m?3 and SONP - 270 pg m?3). In agreement with previous studies, the atmospheric concentrations of legacy OCPs showed background air levels. The decrease of endosulfan over the years was highlighted with a parallel increase of chlorpyrifos, suggesting a collateral effect of the national bias of permissive and massive use of agrochemicals. CUPs seemed to behave like pseudo-persistent pollutants (pseudo-POPs). This is the first report of atmospheric concentrations of pyrethroids in Brazilian mountain regions, and possibly the first to investigate them in the air in South America or in any mountain region in the world. Current-use pesticides were measured at high concentrations in the atmosphere of Brazilian mountains and increase over time, while endosulfan has decreased after its prohibition. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,19-30,,,242,,Environ.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are among them. MPAs and their coverage have increased worldwide, including in EU waters. Natura 2000 (Nat2000) sites are at the core of the EU biodiversity conservation strategy and have been established to protect habitats and species included in two EU directives. Besides their specific objectives, their potential to contribute to an ecosystem-wide conservation and their complementarity with other national and supranational initiatives (e.g. nationally established MPA networks, the Marine Strategy Framework Directive, the Convention on Biological Diversity Ecosystem-Based Approach) have been called into question. Using visual censuses on rocky reefs, the biomass of whole fish assemblages and of a set of ecologically important species (widely used as indicators of coastal marine ecosystem health) have been assessed to evaluate the potential ecosystem-wide effectiveness of Nat2000 marine sites located along the coasts of Sardinia (Italy). The assessment was performed in six fully protected MPAs, in 12 Nat2000 sites established or extending at sea, and in 18 adjacent unprotected control sites. Results show that the highest fish biomasses are observed in fully protected MPAs. The values observed at Nat2000 sites do not differ or only slightly differ from those observed at control sites. This shows that Nat2000 sites may not presently contribute to effectively protect fish and the related rocky reef ecosystems. These results do not dismiss at all the role of Nat2000 sites relative to the objectives for which they have been established. However, they show that to achieve ecosystem-wide benefits it is crucial to rethink and broaden the scope of Nat2000 sites and adapt their management to that. By providing sounder and more comprehensive management plans, and implementing more consistent ecosystem-wide conservation measures, Nat2000 marine sites could become an extraordinary tool at the EU scale, capable of delivering wider ecological benefits. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,537-545,,4,29,,Aquatic Conserv.

The protocol, agreed with local fishermen and the MPA authority, aimed at regulating the fishing pressure within the MPA in the perspective to balance conservation and socio-economic needs. Fishing was completely banned in the entire MPA from 2001 to 2005. In 2005 fishing resumed within the buffer zone surrounding no-take zones. From 2005 to 2008 we monitored artisanal professional fishing (strictly exerted by trammel nets) within the buffer MPA, and compared CPUE (kg km-1 of net) with those obtained outside the MPA (where fishing grounds are fully open to professional and recreational fishing). Catches were higher inside than outside the MPA. Overall assemblage structures (evaluated on wet weight data) were significantly different from inside to outside the MPA, with the two most important commercial species, i.e. Mullus surmuletus and Scorpaena scrofa, accounting for ?40% of the catch inside the MPA and ?20% outside. In 2005, average CPUE within the MPA was about five-fold (?50 kg km-1 of net) the mean value obtained outside. Such value then declined and tended to stabilize around 25 kg km-1 of net in 2007 and 2008. Average CPUE outside the MPA, instead, was ?10 kg km-1 of net and remained quite stable across years. This study shows that the use of fishing co-management protocols within MPAs that properly involve local fishermen in the decision process is a promising approach to balance fishermen's and conservation needs. © 2009 Elsevier B.V.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) with no-take zones may enhance fisheries, but empirical evidence of this is scant. We conducted a 4-year survey of fish catches around and within an MPA that was previously fully closed to fishing and then partially reopened under regulated comanaged fishing. In collaboration with the fishers and the MPA authority, we set the fishing effort and selected the gear to limit fishing impact on key fish predators, juvenile fish stage, and benthic communities and habitats. Within an adaptive comanagement framework, fishers agreed to reduce fishing effort if symptoms of overfishing were detected. We analyzed the temporal trends of catch per unit of effort (CPUE) of the whole species assemblages and CPUE of the four most valuable and frequent species observed inside the opened buffer zone and outside the MPA investigated. After the comanaged opening, CPUE first declined and then stabilized at levels more than twice that of catches obtained outside the MPA. Our results suggest that working closely with fishers can result in greater fisheries catches. Partial protection of coastal areas together with adaptive comanagement involving fishers, scientists, and managers can effectively achieve conservation and fishery management goals and benefit fishing communities and alleviate overfishing. © 2009 Society for Conservation Biology.",,312-318,,1,24,,Conserv.

Fish assemblages can benefit from protection provided by MPAs, especially those that include fully no-take reserves. Fish response to protection can thus be used to evaluate the effectiveness of marine reserves. Most target fish are high-level predators and their overfishing may affect entire communities through trophic cascades. In the Mediterranean rocky sublittoral, marine reserves may allow fish predators of sea urchins to recover and thus whole communities to be restored from coralline barrens to macroalgae. Such direct and indirect reserve effects, however, are likely to be related to the enforcement implemented. In Italy, many MPAs that include no-take reserves have been declared, but little effort has been spent to enforce them. This is a worldwide phenomenon (although more common in some regions than others) that may cause MPAs and reserves to fail to meet their targets. We found that 3 of 15 Italian marine reserves investigated had adequate enforcement, and that patterns of recovery of target fish were related to enforcement. No responses were detected when all reserves were analyzed as a whole, suggesting enforcement as an important factor to be considered in future studies particularly to avoid that positive ecological responses in properly managed reserves can be masked by neutral/negative results in paper parks. Positive responses were observed for large piscivores (e.g. dusky groupers) and sea urchin predators at reserves where enforcement was effective. Those reserves with low or null enforcement did not differ from fished areas. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.",,699-709,,3,141,,Biol.

Location: Mediterranean Sea. Methods: We first assessed gaps in the taxonomic representation of the 340 coastal fish species in Mediterranean MPAs, with representation targets (the species range proportion to be covered by MPAs) set to be inversely proportional to species' range sizes. We then asked whether MPAs favoured representation of phylogenetically and functionally more distinct species or whether there was a tendency to favour less distinctive ones. We finally evaluated the overall conservation effectiveness of the MPAs using a metric that integrates species' phylogenetic and functional relationships and targets achievement. The effectiveness of the MPA system at protecting biodiversity was assessed by comparison of its achievements against a null model obtained by siting current MPAs at random over the study area. Results: Among the coastal fish species analysed, 16 species were not covered by any MPA. All the remaining species only partially achieved the pre-defined representation target. The current MPA system missed fewer species than expected from siting MPAs at random. However, c. 70% of the species did not achieve better protection in the current MPAs than expected from siting MPAs at random. Functional and evolutionary distinctiveness were weakly correlated with target achievement. The observed coverage of taxonomic, phylogenetic and functional diversity was not different or lower than expected from siting MPAs at random. Main conclusions: The Mediterranean MPA system falls short in meeting conservation targets for coastal fish taxonomic diversity, phylogenetic diversity and functional diversity. Mediterranean MPAs do not encompass more biodiversity than expected by chance.

The state is located within the lowlands of the western Amazon basin, adjacent to the foothills of the Andes, within a ""megadiverse"" region of the Brazilian Amazon basin. Despite its diversity, the region is still only poorly known in scientific terms, and is considered to be a priority for future biological surveys. Given this situation, the present study aims to contribute to the scientific knowledge of the avian fauna of southwestern Amazonia, by evaluating the following questions - (a) how many and which bird species occur in the state of Acre?; (b) how are these species distributed within the state?; and (c) what are the priority areas for new ornithological surveys within the state of Acre? My methodological procedures included (a) a wide literature search; (b) two years of field surveys, including observation records and the collection of voucher specimens; map the distribution of avian taxa within the two main interfuvial regions (east and west of the Purus River) of the state; and the identification of contact and possible hybridization zones, based on the distribution of parapatric sister taxa. Te literature search and fieldwork resulted in the compilation of 9550 avian records, encompassing 4763 specimens, of which 2457 (51.5%) were collected during the past five years. A total of 667 species were confirmed for the state of Acre, representing 75 families and 23 orders. A total of 64 migratory species were also recorded, of which 46.8% (n=30) are Nearctic migrants, 15 (23.4%) were considered to be intratropical migrants, and 19 (29.6%) were classified as austral migrants. Overall, 41 of the recorded species and subespecies were endemic to the Inambari center of endemism. Of all forest avian taxa present year round in the state, 79% are distributed in both main interfuvial regions, 16% were recorded only in the central-western sub-region (west of the Purus), and 5% only in the eastern sub-region (east of the Purus). At least five pairs of purported sister taxa presented allopatric distributions, whereas 15 had parapatric distribution within the state. Two zones of secondary contact (east and west) were identified, which coincided with two possible hybridization zones. Te main conclusions of this study are: (a) the total number of species recorded in the state is high but will probably increase as new surveys are conducted; (b) neither of the state's major rivers-the Purus and the Juruá-act as physical barriers to the dispersal of most of the resident species found in the state; (c) the zones of secondary contact found do not coincide with the basins of these two major rivers, which supports the idea that factors other than physical barriers to dispersal determine the present distribution of some of the resident bird taxa of Acre; and (d) birds restricted to the white-sand forests (campinas and campinaranas) found only in the western portion of the state, as well as those found only in the dense forests of eastern Acre, constitute together the most threatened elements of the state's avifauna since no conservation units protect these specific habitats.",,393-442,,4,20,,Rev.

Yet, most protected areas globally face threats of biological invasions either by invasive non-native species established within the protected area or by the imminent establishment of invasive non-native species established in the surrounding landscapes. In face of growing biological invasions, protected area managers must be able to set prevention and control priorities for invasive non-native species management. In this study, we developed a new methodological approach to identify which protected areas should be prioritized for prevention and early detection and which should be prioritized for control of biological invasions. Our methodological approach analyzes the occurrence of invasive species within and around the protected areas and weights the influence of multiple existing pathways to calculate the probability of introduction of invasive species and colonization pressure for each protected area. We evaluated our priority setting model in 280 terrestrial and 42 marine protected areas in Brazil. For the terrestrial protected areas, 84 were classified as priority for prevention and early detection and 124 were classified as priority for control of biological invasions. For the marine protected areas, 25 were classified as priority for prevention and early detection and seven were classified as priority for control of biological invasions. Human population density and percentage of pasture cover surrounding the protected area were the most important factors for priority setting in terrestrial protected areas whereas number of aquiculture activities, density of waterways, distance to ports, distance to oil platforms, and distance from sinking points were the most important factors for priority setting in marine protected areas. In conclusion, the framework presented here provides an objective methodology for managers and stakeholders to decide where to invest their limited resources available for management of biological invasions in protected areas. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024.",,3947-3957,,11,26,,Biol.

Enabling conditions to secure MPAs effectiveness and the ability to deliver the desired socio-ecological outcomes often include the application of participatory approaches. One example of these approaches are collective visioning exercises where stakeholders can work together, projecting into the future their expectations and goals for MPAs. Our study presents a visioning exercise, using an adaptation of the Territory Game technique, as a starting point of a long and comprehensive participatory process to implement a community-based MPA in the southern part of Portugal. This particular MPA aims at protecting one of the largest rocky reefs of the Portuguese coast, an important biodiversity and human activities' hotspot, stressing the need to accommodate different interests into its design and planning. To the best of our knowledge, and in the context of an MPA, this is one of the few studies in the literature where the process of creating a stakeholders’ shared vision is described. Stakeholder mapping and raising interest activities were used to motivate their participation. A total of 7 visions were co-created by 50 stakeholders of 30 different institutions. From this set we were able to congregate a shared vision that became the flag of the subsequent participatory process. The visioning exercise made explicit that the MPA is a long-term investment, that includes immediate costs and benefits, some that will only arrive later. Considering the immediate costs, the desire to identify compensatory measures was also made explicit. Our results show that using visioning exercises in the early stages of an MPA design broadens the discussions and paves the way for less consensual tasks such as MPA zoning and regulation. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,240,,Ocean Coast.

To determine the effect of MR area and age on biological responses, a RR analysis was performed on density and size data for both species from sites inside versus outside 13 MRs. Most MRs supported a greater density of larger individuals than unprotected areas. Linear and non-linear plots of MR age and area with respect to species-specific density and size were used to quantify the trajectories of the responses. In the RR meta-analysis but not in the Hedges' g meta-analysis, MR age explained significant variation in the density and size of both species, while no effect of MR area was detected in either analysis. Comparison of the performance of RR with that of Hedges' g revealed no overall evidence of a relationship between them, probably because the RR does not include an estimate of variance, whereas the Hedges' g analysis does. While RR analysis is an appropriate alternative to Hedges' g statistic meta-analysis assessments of MR effectiveness because of its ease of use and interpretation, we recommend that future RR analyses include both an estimate of variance and a test for 'effect size'. Finally, we recommend that research be aimed at determining why different MRs produce different biological responses-that is, address why significant 'effect size' exists.",,185-200,,2,14,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000299382200009,,,,,,,ABUNDANCE; Biological response; BLUE COD; FISH POPULATIONS; ISLAND; JASUS-EDWARDSII; Marine conservation; Marine management; Meta-analysis; METAANALYSIS; PARAPERCIS-COLIAS; PROTECTION; Response ratio; RESPONSE RATIOS; SPINY LOBSTER,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Montagu's harriers Circus pygargus are ground-nesting semi-colonial raptors typical of agricultural habitats. We studied the foraging behaviour of 14 radio-tracked male Montagu's harriers, in order to investigate the distance from nests of foraging birds, the extent to which foraging range overlapped with SPAs designated for this species, and foraging habitat selection within foraging ranges. Average foraging range size, estimated from either minimum convex polygon or kernel 90%, was larger than 100km 2. Only 19 ± 11% of the foraging ranges were within SPA limits. Cereal (the main habitat used for nesting) was slightly counterselected for foraging, and most prey (64%, n=117) captured in that habitat were insects. Hunting attempts occurred significantly more frequently than expected in alfalfa, where most prey captured were small mammals (70%, n=102). Use of this habitat for foraging increased throughout the season. Most prey captured in other habitats (mainly tree crops, shrubs or uncultivated land) were birds (83%, n=43). SPAs included a higher proportion of cereal, but a lower proportion of alfalfa than areas outside SPAs. Overall, our results show that breeding Montagu's harriers use an area for foraging much larger than current sizes of most SPAs for the species, that habitats selected for foraging differ from those used for nesting and that preferred foraging habitats were less common inside SPAs than outside. Conservation management for this species should aim to protect foraging habitats within a large radius of the colonies, probably requiring measures to be applied outside protected areas. More generally, SPAs designed without including information of ranging behaviour and foraging habitats may be ineffective. © 2011 The Authors.

We evaluate the spatial structure of vulnerable marine benthic invertebrate populations based on connectivity to improve the placement of marine protected areas. Location: Gulf of Lions, NW Mediterranean Sea. Methods: We used a spatially explicit metapopulation model to explore how larval dispersal affects marine benthic invertebrate dynamics at local and regional scales. Minimum recruitment success (the proportion of larvae that settle in a site and survive between spawning and first reproduction, which is required to ensure species persistence) is proposed as a measure of vulnerability. Three contrasting simulations were constructed: closed versus connected populations, habitat loss versus recruitment failure disturbances and varying patterns of oceanographic connectivity. The rescue factor (the ratio of minimum recruitment success in connected and closed populations) quantified the decrease in vulnerability because of oceanographic connectivity. Results: In the Gulf of Lions, connectivity reduced population vulnerability by a rescue factor of 5.3. The minimum recruitment success for regional persistence decreased from 3% to 0.2% when species' life expectancies increased from 2 to 50 years. Connectivity enabled the spread of individuals over the entire region, but there were higher densities in sink sites, where low retention rates do not allow for local persistence (western tip of the gulf). Source sites, defined as those sites bringing metapopulation resistance to recruitment failure and stresses from habitat loss, were located in the centre of the gulf. Main conclusions: Connectivity drives the spatial structure of population density distribution and population vulnerability in the absence of any other structuring factor. In the Gulf of Lions, marine protected areas are located in population sinks; however; if protection measures were taken in the central part, populations would benefit throughout the region via the rescue effect. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,1392-1402,,12,20,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,Connectivity; Larval dispersal; Mediterranean Sea; Metapopulation; Resistance to stresses; Vulnerability,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Methods: Mouse hepatocytes and C57BL/6 mice were administered a toxic dose of APAP with or without SP600125, a chemical c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitor. JNK activity as reflected in phospho-c-jun levels, serum alanine transaminase (ALT), and liver histology were assessed. Similar experiments were repeated in JNK1 and JNK2 knockout mice and by using antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) to knockdown JNK. Results: Sustained activation of JNK was observed in cultured mouse hepatocytes and in vivo in the liver after APAP treatment. The importance of this pathway was identified by the marked protective effect of SP600125 against APAP toxicity in vitro and in vivo. The specificity of this protective effect was confirmed in vivo by the knockdown of JNK1 and 2 using ASO pretreatment. JNK2 knockout mice and mice treated with JNK2 ASO exhibited partial protection against APAP. One potential target of JNK is Bax translocation, which was enhanced by APAP and blocked by the JNK inhibitor. Protection by the JNK inhibitor persisted in Kupffer cell-depleted mice, whereas there was no protection against CCl4 or concanavalin A toxicity. Conclusions: This work suggests that JNK acts downstream of APAP metabolism to promote hepatotoxicity. The results suggest that JNK2 plays a predominant role, although maximum protection was seen with decrease in both forms of JNK. © 2006 American Gastroenterological Association Institute.",,165-178,,1,131,,Gastroenterology,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: W.B.

The development of large areas of peatland as timber estates and palm oil plantations has caused a serious threat to the remaining peat swamp forest ecosystems. Forest and land fires have occurred annually, especially in the dry season, and the remaining peat swamp forest is subject to illegal logging activities and natural disturbances. Villagers continuously convert the remaining natural peat swamp forest into jungle rubber gardens and oil palm plantations. Four objectives of the study: (1) to clarify the current condition and ecological characteristics of the remaining peat swamp forest ecosystems, (2) reestablishing typical canopy tree species and restoring degraded peat swamp forest and peatland areas, (3) to determine a mechanism or directions for the participation of the local population; and, (4) to discuss a model for the promotion of sustainablemanagement of peat swamp forest ecosystems in the biosphere reserve. The improvement of management of remaining peat swamp forests and rehabilitation should consider the unique ecological characteristics particularly the dominant tree species, fast growing species as well as the peat characteristics. The remaining peat swamp forests should be kept in their natural conditions in order to provide continuous ecosystem services, given their unique biodiversity characteristics, protection could be enhanced by adding incentives to local communities including monetary incentives from biodiversity and climate change mitigation funds. The promotion of a sustainable management model should be the direction of actions to conserve the remaining natural forests, regenerate and restore the degraded peat swamp forests, and create economic incentives enabling sustainability for the local community. © Springer Japan 2016.",,113-123,,,,,,,,,,,Springer Japan,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Tropical Peatl.

We argue that the 2022 Global Biodiversity Framework's “30x30” target—which aims to protect 30% of global terrestrial and marine areas by 2030—constitutes a “subsequent agreement” under international law and thus clarifies the legal scope and content of the obligation to establish protected areas under Article 8 of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). Since states have pledged 120 million square kilometers for land-based CDR, these commitments potentially conflict with the “30x30” target, especially if global cropland for food production is to be maintained. Consequently, some land-based CDR strategies may directly or indirectly impede the achievement of the “30x30” target, which could be deemed inconsistent with international law. However, as all international environmental law operates in a continuum, this does not imply that land-based CDR should be categorically ruled out. Rather, states should focus on emission reductions and implementing CDR options that provide the most co-benefits to climate mitigation and biodiversity protection efforts.

However, studies on core habitats and their variations at the large-scale distribution of cetaceans are limited. In this study, we conducted a seven years (2015-2021) boat-based field observation surveys with highly applicable and generalized methods to analyze the habitat changes and how these changes influenced the largest known Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin (Sousa chinensis) population in the Pearl River Estuary (PRE), China. Our findings revealed that there is 3204 km2 of dolphin habitat in the PRE, and dolphin distribution preferences are related to nutrients and biological resources. The decreasing trend of dolphin sighting rates in most areas (73.2%) indicated that the dolphin habitat had declined, and the annual habitat decline rate (2.83%; 95% confidence interval: 0.58%-5.08%) was consistent with the population decline rate. The annual habitat decline rate in the hypoxic zone revealed that low dolphin sighting rates from March to October in the hypoxic zone was 0.43% faster than that in the non-hypoxic zone, indicating long-term sustained effects of summer hypoxia on the dolphin population. Existing reserves have partially prevented habitat decline. However, more than 82.3% of the habitat has not been effectively protected and encounters the threats of pollution and hypoxic stress. This study offers new scientific evidence for developing effective monitoring strategies for humpback dolphin populations in the PRE, and also help establish spatial planning and management measures for reserve habitats.

Here, we evaluated the short-, medium- and long-term impacts of marine protected areas (MPAs) that were specifically designed to achieve the dual goals of conservation and poverty alleviation (hereafter ""integrated MPAs""), on three key domains of poverty (security, opportunity and empowerment) in eight villages in North Sulawesi, Indonesia. Using social data for villages with and without integrated MPAs from pre-, mid- and post-the five-year implementation period of the integrated MPAs, we found that the integrated MPAs appeared to contribute to poverty alleviation. Positive impacts spanned all three poverty domains, but within each domain the magnitude of the effects and timescales over which they manifested were mixed. Importantly, positive impacts appeared to occur mostly during the implementation period, after which integrated MPA activities all but ceased and reductions in poverty did not continue to accrue. This finding questions the efficiency of the short-term approach taken in many international donor-assisted protected area projects that integrate development and conservation, which are often designed with the expectation that project activities will be sustained and related benefits will continue to accumulate after external support is terminated. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,98-107,,1,26,,Global Environ.

Although participation of local people is critical to the success of devolved commons management, few studies have empirically investigated how individuals' participation is related to socioeconomic factors that operate at multiple scales. Here, we evaluated how individual- and community-scale factors were related to levels of individual participation in management of community-based marine protected areas in Indonesia. In addressing this aim, we drew on multiple bodies of literature on human behaviour from economics and social science, including the social-ecological systems framework from the literature on common-pool resources, the theory of planned behaviour from social psychology, and public goods games from behavioural economics. We found three key factors related to level of participation of local people: subjective norms, structural elements of social capital, and nested institutions. There was also suggestive evidence that participation was related to people's cooperative behavioural disposition, which we elicited using a public goods game. These results point to the importance of considering socioeconomic factors that operate at multiple scales when examining individual behaviour. Further, our study highlights the need to consider multiscale mechanisms other than those designed to appeal to self-interested concerns, such as regulations and material incentives, which are typically employed in devolved commons management to encourage participation. Increased understanding of the factors related to participation could facilitate better targeting of investments aimed at encouraging cooperative management. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.",,212-220,,,61,,Environ.

Although integrating socioeconomic factors into systematic conservation planning is increasingly advocated, research is needed to progress from recognition of these factors to incorporating them effectively in spatial prioritization of protected areas. We evaluated 2 key aspects of incorporating socioeconomic factors into spatial prioritization: treatment of socioeconomic factors as costs or objectives and treatment of stakeholders as a single group or multiple groups. Using as a case study the design of a system of no-take marine protected areas (MPAs) in Kubulau, Fiji, we assessed how these aspects affected the configuration of no-take MPAs in terms of trade-offs between biodiversity objectives, fisheries objectives, and equity in catch losses among fisher stakeholder groups. The achievement of fisheries objectives and equity tended to trade-off concavely with increasing biodiversity objectives, indicating that it is possible to achieve low to mid-range biodiversity objectives with relatively small losses to fisheries and equity. Importantly, the extent of trade-offs depended on the method used to incorporate socioeconomic data and was least severe when objectives were set for each fisher stakeholder group explicitly. We found that using different methods to incorporate socioeconomic factors that require similar data and expertise can result in plans with very different impacts on local stakeholders. © 2015, Society for Conservation Biology.",,1378-1389,,5,29,,Conserv.

However, the essential coordination of environmental, spatial and energy planning at a basin scale is lacking. This study offers a systematic approach for unidirectional coupling of spatially explicit offshore development scenarios potentials(km2), with an integrated energy system model, IESA-NS. Under the NSOG concept, we calculate spatial potentials for 8 predefined energy hubs(clusters). By combining the potential spatial availability, deployment and energy system costs(IESA-NS) and the risk management options (OWFs/fisheries/marine protected areas-MPA), we unfold trade-offs emerging in the planning of the future NSOG. Hence, a lower-cost NSOG, in reaching the North Sea 2050 energy targets, depends on integrated, collaborative space management, fast deployment of fixed-bottom OWFs by 2030(3.5 times the current capacity) and multi-use with static gear fisheries (Cluster 3) and MPAs (Cluster 7). Alternatively, a higher-cost NSOG with lower impacts on the MPAs and fisheries, is highly dependent on floating OWFs (32.6GWs by 2030), from 2 British NSOG clusters. In both cases, floating OWFs are essential, the effective use of cluster space requires basin-scale collaboration (Cluster 7-Dogger Bank), and the untapped potential of Cluster 8(floating OWFs) can lower the pressure on other NSOG clusters. © 2024 The Authors",,5874-5893,,,11,,Energy Rep.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,Basin scale; Conservation; Economic and social effects; Electric utilities; Energy hubs; Energy model; Fisheries; North Sea; North Seas offshore grids; Offshore oil well production; Offshore wind farms; Offshores; Optimized energy model; Risk management; Spatial scenario; Spatial scenarios; Trade off; Trade-off analysis,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The current study aimed to estimate the potential risk of some metals (Cd, Pb, and Zn) and arsenic (As) for human health through the ingestion of fish locally harvested in a Ramsar site, the Cananéia-Iguape-Peruíbe Environmental Protected Area (APA-CIP). Previous studies showed environmental impacts in this area due to former mining activities and urbanization. Cathorops spixii, a catfish largely consumed by the local population, was collected along the estuary in three seasons with different rain regimes. Metals and As loads in muscle tissue were quantified and it was estimated (i) the target hazard quotient (THQ) and (ii) the daily intake (EDI) for metals and As, (iii) the cancer risk (CRisk) only for As, and (iv) the number of eligible meals per month. Cd, Pb, and As were found at concentrations above action levels for human consumption. Depending on the level of exposure of the local population, the consumption of C. spixii may pose risk to human health. Highest THQs were estimated for fish collected in sites closer to the main contamination sources in the APA-CIP, i.e. the mouth of Ribeira de Iguape River (P1) and the city of Cananéia (P4, P5, and P6). Arsenic showed high levels of cancer risk, although restricted to the area close to the city.

But it is rarely explicitly stated who are participating and in what. The study investigates this in the context of a Marine Protected Area (MPA) in Zanzibar, Tanzania, and in particular the Memba Island - Chwaka Bay Marine Conservation Area (MIMCA). This is done by applying Pretty's typology of participation in addressing procedural justice, which is according to Paavola linked to distributive justice, i.e. the just distribution of costs and benefits. How does participation in MIMCA facilitate procedural and distributive justice? To answer this question a number of fishermen, women seaweed farmers, local leaders, and representatives of the private sector were interviewed (n=136) in five villages. Interviews were also made with government officials at relevant departments. The results show that Village Fishermen Committees were participating in the implementation of MIMCA but not in its planning phase. Participation was mainly in the form of manipulative and passive participation. Other local actors did not participate at all. Instead, the government assumed that justice was achieved by distributing equipment, alternative income generating projects, and relying on tourism for local development. However, the distributed equipment and tourism development have created conflict and injustice within and between villages, because of the insufficient resources which did not target those in need. Tourism created problems such as inequality between livelihoods, environmental destruction and local power asymmetries between hotel management and local people. The MIMCA top-down intervention has not increased participation or justice, nor has it achieved sustainable resource use and conflict resolution. It is suggested that interactive participation by all local actors is needed to create just trade-offs. Justice needs to be explicitly addressed for integrated conservation and development projects to achieve sustainability. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,91-100,,,46,,Mar.

The spatial database was organized as a Geographic Information System (GIS) and was also used to perform the Species Distribution Models (SDM) at community level. The results show a high correspondence between the vegetation series and the environmental gradients. The predicted PNV maps based on the Maximum Entropy Model were validated with the official map of the PNV of the sites of Natura 2000 Network ‘Sado Estuary’ and ‘Comporta-Galé’, and presented an overall accuracy of 86%.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are key to guarantee Ocean resilience. About 62 % of the Ocean surface coincide with areas 200 miles from coastlines, called areas beyond national jurisdiction (ABNJ). However, MPAs in ABNJ are only 1,18 % of the high seas. Stakeholder involvement is a keystone in the governance process. This is of particular importance in Macaronesia, and the need for compatibility between human activities and conservation, through the synergetic engagement of the local-maritime community. The present paper aims to develop a MPA proposal in the ABNJ context through expert consultation. The proposal was built upon the analysis of the Macaronesia region study case. Results show that there is no integrated international body to fully address the range of problems to be tackled, therefore the option to use the Conference of Parties model seems to be adequate. Considering Macaronesia region specific features, the conclusion is that select local focal points in each archipelago to enhance the local maritime community is essential. Furthermore, it would be necessary to implement Working Groups, rotative between archipelagos, to address different solutions for local conservation practices.

However, a number of studies indicate that a large proportion of whale sightings occur outside this protected area. Thus, an increase in the size (or dimension) of the protected area has been suggested. This requires ensuring compatibility of the protected area with economic activities which take place there, especially fishing, tourism and diving. This study proposes a strategic plan for expanding the CIMR area developed using the decision-making algorithm MARXAN. We proposed three conservation scenarios: Scenario 0 divided the proposed area into planning units (PU) classed as either “obligatory” or “available”; Scenario 1 in which all PUs were “available” and Scenario 2 with the PUs “obligatory”, “available” and “suggested”. The results suggest that Scenario 2 is the most favorable for conservation, since it supports increasing the current area of the reserve, adding a second nautical mile around the island. This would create an area sufficient to fulfill the conservation goals for the three whale species (30% of the feeding areas for blue and fin whales and 10% for humpback whale) without producing an impact on the current activities in the CIMR. This zoning proposal provides a roadmap for the development of protected areas based on scientific baseline, including the participation of local communities that ultimately should validate the proposal to successfully support its implementation. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,248,,Ocean Coast.

Nevertheless, protected areas are not necessarily the most appropriate tool for fisheries management, since they are being used systematically and specifically for such purposes, in lieu of the very slow deployment of fisheries protection policy instruments. Mexico’s fisheries are definitively in crisis. A recent Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development estimate derived from studies of 54 Mexican fisheries has concluded that 63% of fisheries are at their maximum capacity, 20% are overfished, and 17% still have limited potential for growth. Mexico’s official information, provided by the 2010 National Fisheries Chart, supports this estimate, at percentages of 67%, 16%, and 16%, respectively, for 477 species. Meanwhile, wild caught species catches have stabilized in the past few decades, while fishing efforts have increased. Different threats need to be approached through the adoption of specific policy instruments and the governance framework that they provide. Ideally, harmonization of fisheries and environmental policy instruments could not only support the conservation of marine habitats and their biodiversity, but could also generate the conditions for sustainable fisheries. Policy instruments such as fisheries refuges and fisheries management plans are derived from the Fisheries Law. National water reserves (specific volume dedicated for environmental flows) can be created through the National Water Law. Protected areas, critical habitats, and aquatic species refuge areas are policy instruments established through the Environmental Law. Furthermore, Mexico has ratified the Ramsar Convention, an intergovernmental treaty that provides the framework for the conservation and wise use of wetlands and their resources. This chapter describes the role that protected areas and other policy instruments can play in sustaining fisheries; the existing opportunities, advantages, and disadvantages of their use in specific situations; the synergies that can be achieved through their positive interaction; the ecological and social implications of their use; and public policy recommendations aimed at achieving environmental protection and fisheries sustainability. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019.",,265-276,,,,,,,,,,,Springer International Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Mexican Aquatic Environments: A General View from Hydrobiology to Fisheries DOI: 10.1007/978-3-030-11126-7_11,,,,Biosphere reserves; Fisheries ordinance; Fisheries refuges; Governance; Marine protected areas; No-take zones,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Because the subspecies H. i. bulleri and H. i. jaliscensis occur nearby, our objective was to properly determine the taxonomic identity of the novel sample. Also, we evaluate its distinctiveness, both in terms of genetic divergence and phylogenetic placement, relative to other members of H. irroratus. Preliminary, we compared external and cranial measurements of recently collected individuals to those reported for representatives of the subspecies of H. irroratus occurring close by. In addition, we examined levels of genetic differentiation and phylogenetic relationships, based on sequence data of the Cytochrome b, among this population and other members of H. irroratus, including an individual from Sierra de Juanacatlán, Jalisco, the type locality of H. i. bulleri. Phylogenetic relationships were estimated using Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian Inference methods and levels of genetic divergence were assessed employing Kimu-ra-2-parameters genetic distances. Samples from Sierra de Manantlán and Sierra de Juanacatlán were grouped together in a well-supported haplogroup and genetic distances between them were lower than < 1.02 %. Our phylogenetic hypothesis shows that H. i. bulleri represents the sister group to all other samples of H. irroratus but that, genetically, is a very divergent lineage. Distances values between H. i. bulleri to any of the other groups were > 10.05 %. Comparison of external and cranial measurements showed that, in average, individuals from Sierra de Manantlán are larger than those of H. i. jaliscensis, but more similar in size to H. i. bulleri. Our results show that the new population of the Mexican spiny pocket mouse from Sierra de Manantlán belongs to H. i. bulleri. In addition, the phylogenetic separation and the high levels of genetic divergence of H. i. bulleri, relative to other members of H. irroratus, suggest that the first should be recognized as a species-level taxon. Considering the scarce collecting records of H. i. bulleri and the known area of occurrence, that is very restricted, this taxon may warrant special conservation status. © 2021 Asociación Mexicana de Mastozoología.",,139-148,,1,12,,Therya,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Asociacion Mexicana de Mastozoologia,,,,Cytochrome b; Genetic divergence; Mexican spiny pocket mouse; Phylogeny; Valid species,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This bay encompass a great variety of marine and coastal ecosystems, including fish, planktonic, and benthic communities as well as species that in conjunction with the environmental features form an area of high heterogeneity and unique biodiversity in the province of La Guajira. The purpose of this research was to design the first MPA in the north of the Province through the evaluation of ecologic criteria, as well as proposed conservation and management objectives; setting up a management category within the existing National Protected Areas System (SINAP in Spanish). Therefore, based on secondary information and following the ""The five S framework"", methodology design by The Nature Conservancy for site planning, five conservation objectives (OdC) of coarse-filter or habitats were identified: corals, seagrasses, sandy beaches, rocky coasts and mangroves ecosystems, and three OdC of fine filter: areas with presence of Crocodylus acutus, sea turtles' feeding areas, and areas of birds congregation. A viability analysis was developed for each healthy object found within the area, thus reflecting the biodiversity health of the area. The analysis of criteria, viability and the definition of the management objectives for the area, allowed the election of National Natural Park as the most appropriate management category for the area. Based on a systematic process and with the use of the MARXAN (University of Queensland) Decision Support System (DSS), three no-take zones were identified, with which the protection of a minimum of 30% of the coverage area for each of the objects is guaranteed as the initial contribution to the internal zoning of the new MPA.",,189-212,,2,37,,Bol.

Rehabilitation centres aim to care for these monkeys and ultimately return them to the wild whenever possible. However, it is unknown whether rehabilitation is successful in its goal of creating wild-living, independent, self-sustaining troops due to limited published research in this area. This study describes the release and subsequent fate of a troop of rehabilitated vervet monkeys over a 6-month period. A troop of 16 monkeys was released into the Ntendeka Wilderness Area, a protected part of Ngome Forest, by the WATCH (Wild Animal Trauma Centre and Haven) rehabilitation centre in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Monitoring data were evaluated with regard to survival, mortality, suitability of the release site, breeding, condition, troop composition, behaviour, group dynamics, ranging patterns and the effectiveness of monitoring tools. The release was considered to be a partial success in that the troop exhibited behaviour, group dynamics and ranging patterns similar to wild conspecifics. However, the survival rate was low and the troop was judged to be non-self-sustaining. The main problems identified were the limited lifetimes of radio collars, which resulted in missing animals and caused monitoring to be cut short, illegal hunting activities, predation and a small troop size with few adults. The authors recommend improvements that may increase success, such as retaining troops in release enclosures for longer periods, releasing a larger troop with more adults that more closely matches wild troop composition, selecting a release site at least 3 km from the nearest human settlement and the use of GPS collars to allow for a longer monitoring period encompassing all seasonal conditions. Furthermore, all primates for release should be medically screened so as to avoid potential negative impacts on wild populations. © 2012 Japan Monkey Centre and Springer.",,171-179,,2,53,,Primates,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"animal; animal behavior; Animalia; Animals; article; assessment method; Behavior, Animal; Cercopithecus; Cercopithecus aethiops; Conservation; conservation management; Conservation of Natural Resources; environmental protection; female; Female; Haplorhini; KwaZulu-Natal; male; Male; monitoring; mortality; physiology; primate; Primates; protected area; Rehabilitation; reintroduction; Reintroduction; social behavior; Social Behavior; South Africa; survival; Vervet monkey",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

It analyzes Colombia's unique approach to creating protected areas, beginning with land-based conservation in the late 1960 s and later expanding to coastal and marine areas to evaluate the current marine protection status. The methodologic framework used a map-based approach using the Marine Conservation Atlas (MPAtlas) and the National Unique Register of Protected Areas (RUNAP), which provides detailed information, including the level of protection and size of MPAs. The study emphasizes the importance of community involvement in the implementation and management processes of marine protected areas and recommends evaluating existing Marine Protected Areas against new pressures on the ocean and advancing ecosystem-based ocean management. The article highlights Colombia's success in meeting Aichi Target 11, which aimed to protect 10% of the world's oceans by 2020, and the need for more harmonized legal frameworks and improved management of conservation standards across existing MPAs. The study identifies several challenges facing marine conservation policies in Colombia, including the lack of adequate evaluation mechanisms, corruption, internal conflicts, and limited impact of scientific research on policy implementation. Finally, it highlights the need for a simplified classification system based on conservation objectives, natural characteristics, and allowed uses and activities, following the international standardization proposed by the IUCN. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,155,,Mar.

This study provides an initial assessment of the artisanal fishery carried out within the biological reserve exclusively by hook-and-line, and discuss potential influences of this activity on the recovery of the area. During 11 months, fish landings were monitored, through the analysis of a sample of 4959 fishes based on 365 questionnaires performed to fishermen, to evaluate the species composition, the weight and size of the most important species, the catch per unit effort (CPUE) and the yield from coral reefs within the protected area. The most common mean of transportation of fishermen is the canoes without engines (97%), providing a CPUE for the entire Reserve of 5.1 kg/fisher/day distributed in 37 species. About 80% of the total catch is represented by 8 species (mainly Lutjanidae, Serranidae and Haemulidae). It is concentrated in reef areas closely to the fishing villages (ca. 38% of the protected area). Dominant species caught was the yellow-tail snapper, Ocyurus chrysurus, with 53% of the total landings, apparently based on a 95% population of juvenile individuals (20-37 cm). We estimate, based on an average record of 23 canoes/day and our data of 2530 kg/month for fishing landings similar to 2930 kg/month recorded indirectly from fish-buyers located in the three villages, a fish yield for the reefs of 0.14 t/km(2)/year for the reefs inside Biological Reserve, highly comparable to overfished areas elsewhere. The results of the present study and the results from other studies on the visual abundance and diversity of fishes, queen conch and lobster in this area indicate that a high level of artisanal fishery exploitation exists within the protected area where the integrity of populations of commercial and cultural value species are being placed in danger. The current rate of exploitation of certain species, the high catch of immature juveniles, the low yield for this fishery, and the gradual degradation of natural habitats where important species reproduce and grow cannot continue if adequate levels of management is the goal. The existing fishing regulations have aimed to a positive reduction of the commercial vessel activities, nevertheless, it seems as if the impact of artisanal fishing has being underestimated within the Reserve and the collapse of certain species would be expected unless present regulations are improved.",,151-163,,,46,,,,,,,,,,Spanish,,,,WOS:000073861300014,,,,,,,ABUNDANCE; artisanal fishery; CENTRAL BAHAMAS; coral reefs; CORAL-REEFS; ISLAND; MANAGEMENT; MARINE; Ocyurus chrysurus; PHILIPPINES; protected area; RECRUITMENT; REEF FISHES; RESOURCE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Here, the ability of no-take zones (NTZs) to provide protection for legal-sized fish from targeted species within the Ningaloo Marine Park (NMP) was assessed using both baited remote underwater stereo-video (stereo-BRUV) and diver-operated stereo-video (stereo-DOV). The relative abundance of legal-sized individuals of three recreationally targeted fish species, spangled emperor Lethrinus nebulosus, chinaman cod Epinephelus rivulatus and goldspotted trevally Carangoides fulvoguttatus, were examined using both methodologies inside and outside six NTZs across the NMP. Stereo-BRUVs found positive effects of protection on the relative abundance of legal-size C. fulvoguttatus and L. nebulosus in NTZs. Stereo-DOVs, however, did not detect any differences in relative abundances and sizes of these species between areas opened and closed to fishing. These contrasting results suggest that choice of sampling methodology can influence interpretations of the ability of NTZs to provide adequate levels of protection for target species. Our results suggest that stereo-BRUVs are a superior technique to stereo-DOVs for assessing the effectiveness of no-take zones for protection of fishery target species, reflecting bait attraction and an absence of diver influence on fish behaviour. © 2022, The Author(s).",,,,6,169,,Mar.

Objectives: Epigeic spiders were collected in eight different habitats in the Amanzi Private Game Reserve in the Free State to determine assemblages of different vegetation types. Methods: Three of the sampled habitats were contrasting low-lying shrublands; three were contrasting hill aspects (northern slope, southern slope and plateau) in the Buddleja saligna–Searsia burchellii–Olea europaea africana subcommunity; one habitat was cultivated Digitaria eriantha pastures, and the last habitat was an area in and around a freshwater dam. Spiders were sampled by pitfall trapping in early spring (Sept. 2012), mid-summer (Jan. 2013), mid-autumn (Apr. 2013) and mid-winter (July 2013). Results: A total of 2982 adult spiders were collected, representing 129 species and 33 families. Ammoxenidae was the most abundant family (40.85%), followed by Gnaphosidae (21.26%), Zodariidae (10.80%) and Salticidae (10.26%). Gnaphosidae was the most species-rich family (24.81%), followed by Salticidae (13.18%), Lycosidae (11.63%) and Zodariidae (6.20%). Spider activity densities and species richness did not differ significantly between habitats, although significant seasonal fluctuations were detected. The three hill aspects and cultivated D. eriantha pastures had the most distinct assemblages, while those of the three low-lying shrublands and freshwater dam showed considerable overlap. Conclusions: Our results indicate that the aspect of hills has a significant effect in shaping spider assemblages, while the vegetation composition of shrublands is not strongly influential. The unique spider assemblages of cultivated D. eriantha pastures can be attributed to the absence of woody plants. Conservation implications: This was the first study to investigate ground-dwelling spider assemblages in shrublands and cultivated pastures in the South African Grassland Biome. Our study confirms that hill aspects, shrublands and pastures harbour very different spider faunas. When identifying land for potential expansion or establishment of protected areas, conservation planners should ensure that the greatest diversity of vegetation units are included to optimise the conservation of biodiversity. © 2018.

We use an exploratory mixed-method research design to understand these development impacts and their underlying mechanisms, guided by an innovative activity space framework that situates marine resource management and conservation in a network of relationships between communities, human services, and nature. Qualitative research – based on 22 interviews in Koh Sdach Archipelago, Cambodia – demonstrates how the local community experienced improving relationships with the state and a slowing deterioration of marine resources, but also social division, heightened livelihood anxiety, and potentially a false sense of economic security. We hypothesise on this basis that marine conservation could impede socio-economic development, for which we find support in our quantitative analysis across Cambodia, the Philippines, and Timor-Leste: MPAs materialised in better-off communities but were associated with slower and partly regressive socio-economic development, in particular decreasing wealth and increasing child mortality. These findings suggest that the rapid global expansion of MPA coverage in its current, environmental-conservation-focused form is problematic as it disregards local social realities.

Review question: Are small protected habitat patches within boreal production forests effective in conserving species richness, abundance, and community composition? Methods: Both peer-reviewed and grey literature were searched from bibliographical databases, organizational websites and internet search engines in English, Finnish, Swedish and Russian. Articles were screened at two stages (title/abstract and full text) and the validity of the included studies were assessed. Screening and validity assessment were based on predetermined criteria. After data extraction, narrative and quantitative syntheses were conducted. Influences of effect modifiers were tested, and sensitivity analyses were conducted. Review findings: During the searches 19,458 articles were found. After duplicate removal and title/abstract screening 336 articles remained. During full text screening 41 articles were included and 35 of them (174 studies) were included in narrative synthesis. 28 articles with 127 studies had suitable data for meta-analysis. SPHPs had significantly higher species richness compared to production forests. When compared to natural forests, there was no significant difference. Forest management in areas surrounding SPHPs did not have impact on species richness of these patches. Individual abundance was significantly higher in SPHPs compared to natural or production forests. There was significantly more dead wood in SPHPs compared to production forests, but when compared to natural forests there was no significant difference. Community composition was different between SPHPs and both production and natural forests. Conclusions: The findings of this review show that small protected patches within production forests are important part of biodiversity conservation. They cannot substitute larger protected areas but supplement the protected area network. However, there were gaps both in geographical distribution of the studies as well as in the selection of target species of the studies. Therefore, generalization of the results must be done carefully. © 2021, The Author(s).",,,,1,10,,Environ.

Here, we compare conservation outcomes for two different kinds of PPAs (allowing limited line fishing, but with or without spearfishing) on sheltered and exposed sides of coral reefs of the southern Great Barrier Reef. Compared with No-Take Marine Reserves (NTMRs), Conservation Park Zones (CPZs; spearfishing allowed), had lower biomass and density of primary fisheries targets. Conversely, Special Management Areas (SMAs; spearfishing prohibited) had similar biomass and density of primary targets to NTMRs, and had greater densities of coral trout (a key fishing target), compared to CPZs. No zoning patterns occurred for non-target species. Both PPA zones supported greater biomass of targets compared to less regulated Habitat Protection Zones, which have more allowable fishing activities. These results indicate that partial protection measures limiting fishing activities can create conservation outcomes for targeted fishes. In particular, we provide evidence to support the premise that prohibition of spearfishing can significantly boost conservation outcomes for PPAs. Zoning outcomes did not differ between exposed and sheltered sides of reefs, despite exposed sites consistently supporting a greater biomass and density of fishes. The success of PPAs, and in particular SMAs, in the region is likely due to a combination of factors including: strong enforcement and subsequent compliance of fishing restrictions, the presence of adjacent effective NTMRs, and a long duration of protection. Our results highlight the valuable contributions that PPAs can make to conservation outcomes in well managed MPAs. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,272,,Biol.

Here, we examine the efficacy of two kinds of PPAs (with and without spearfishing) within the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (GBRMP) that are subject to a range of fishing limitations, and assess their utility as a marine park zoning and fisheries management tool. Fish abundance, size, and habitat composition were compared inside PPAs and NTMRs on inshore reefs of the central GBR. Fish abundances were lower inside PPAs relative to adjacent NTMRs for primary fishing targets, with no detectable effects for secondary targets and non-targets, or for species richness. Fish assemblages differed amongst zones, but these variations were minor compared to regional variations in species composition. Partially Protected Areas supported 46%–69% of the relative abundance of total primary targets compared to adjacent NTMRs, with no evident increase in abundance in zones where spearfishing was prohibited. There were no reductions in the size of two key target species: coral trout (Plectropomus spp.) and stripey snapper (Lutjanus carponotatus) inside PPAs, and only stripey snapper had significant reductions in abundance inside PPAs compared to NTMRS. Habitat and biophysical characteristics (especially topographic complexity) were strong drivers of fish abundance, but the relative influence of zone was greater for target species compared to non-targets. This study provides novel data on PPAs and highlights their utility as a spatial management tool in contributing to conservation and fisheries management goals. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,631-651,,3,31,,Rev.

Marine protected areas are powerful conservation tools and often include zones which vary in the level of fishing restriction, including fully protected (no-take) zones, partially protected zones (limited fishing), and less protected “open” fishing zones. Here, we compare outcomes from fully protected, partially protected, and “open” fishing zones on inshore fringing reefs of the Great Barrier Reef with a history of cyclone-induced habitat disturbance. Biomass of target and non-target fish groups, along with the coral cover and structural complexity of benthic habitats, was compared among zones. There was a strong positive effect of full protection from fishing on targeted fish biomass, and a comparatively modest effect of partial protection, even in areas where spearfishing was prohibited. Fully protected zones supported more than three times the biomass of highly targeted coral trout (Plectropomus spp.) compared to open fishing zones, and more than twice the biomass observed in partially protected zones. Similar outcomes occurred for primary targets collectively; conversely, there were no zoning-related differences for non-target fishes. Structural complexity was a consistent positive driver of fish biomass for all fish groups and among all zones. Notably high target fish biomass occurred at NTMR sites with the highest structural complexity, highlighting the importance of both habitat and protection in supporting population hotspots for targeted reef fishes. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to International Coral Reef Society (ICRS).",,319-333,,2,42,,Coral Reefs,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Institute for Ionics,,,,Coral reef habitats; Coral trout; DECLINE; Fisheries management; Fishing; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; MANAGEMENT; Marine protected areas structural complexity; OUTCOMES; RECOVERY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Under the Oceans Act, Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) is the lead federal authority for ocean affairs and is charged with leading and facilitating the development and implementation of integrated management plans for all marine waters. Integrated management efforts in Canada are being undertaken through an area-based approach that enables marine planning, management and decision making to occur at appropriate spatial scales, from regional to site-specific. This article focuses on the Eastern Scotian Shelf Integrated Management (ESSIM) process, an offshore-focused effort to develop an integrated ocean management plan for a large portion of the Scotian Shelf, off Nova Scotia. The resulting Eastern Scotian Shelf Integrated Ocean Management Plan (the ESSIM plan) has been developed through a collaborative process involving all interested and affected government departments and ocean stakeholders, and provides an objectives-based approach to ocean management. The ESSIM plan contains a set of long-term, overarching goals for collaborative governance and integrated management, sustainable human use, and healthy ecosystems. These goals are supported by more specific objectives that express desired outcomes and conditions for the marine region. The objectives-based approach seeks to ensure that interrelationships among ecosystem and human use objectives are recognized and reflected in the identification of management strategies and supporting actions. This article considers the role of marine spatial planning within the context of the integrated ocean management process underway for the Scotian Shelf. The policy and management context for integrated ocean management in Canada is briefly described and a summary of the ESSIM plan is provided. The current and potential role for marine spatial planning in implementing the objectives and strategies of the ESSIM plan is highlighted using examples related to multiple ocean use and marine conservation and protected area planning. The article concludes by drawing out key lessons learned to date through the ESSIM process for marine spatial planning and looks to the future in terms of the development of tools and approaches for this integral aspect of integrated ocean management. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,247-255,,2,15,,J.

The process of establishing the RNA resulted in the development of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the State of Florida and the National Park Service (NPS). The MOU constitutes a roadmap for the roles and responsibilities for a state and federal partnership, collaborative preparation of a research and monitoring plan, and reporting on the progress implementing the plan and preliminary findings. A science plan was developed in conjunction with marine and fisheries scientists from multiple agencies and non-government organizations to: (1) quantify changes in the abundance and size-structure of exploited fish species within the RNA relative to adjacent areas; (2) monitor the immigration and emigration of targeted species; (3) monitor changes in species composition and catch rates of exploited fish species throughout the surrounding region; (4) evaluate the effects on marine benthic biological communities; (5) assess reproductive potential of exploited fish species by evaluating egg production and larval dispersal; and (6) implement social science studies to evaluate visitor experiences. For each topic, performance measures, essential and supplemental activities, and general study recommendations were developed. The plan supported interagency marine resource managers in the structured implementation of a science program by communicating to the public a suite of performance measures and essential and supplementary studies designed to document changes in fisheries resources. Development of collaborative marine science programs are useful for leveraging resources, engaging the public and agency decision-makers, and long-term planning to ensure that research and monitoring data are available for sustainable adaptive management of marine reserves. © 2012.",,15-22,,,144,,Fish.

Despite the popularity of marine reserves as a management tool, few reserves appear to have been created or designed with an understanding of how reserves affect biological factors or how reserves can be designed to meet biological goals more effectively (e.g., attaining sustainable fish populations). This shortcoming occurs in part because the many studies that have examined the impacts of reserves on marine organisms remain isolated examples or anecdotes; the results of these many studies have not yet been synthesized. Here, I review the empirical work and discuss the theoretical literature to assess the impacts of marine reserves on several biological measures (density, biomass, size of organisms, and diversity), paying particular attention to the role reserve size has in determining those impacts. The results of 89 separate studies show that, on average, with the exception of invertebrate biomass and size, values for all four biological measures are significantly higher inside reserves compared to outside (or after reserve establishment vs. before) when evaluated for both the overall communities and by each functional group within these communities (carnivorous fishes, herbivorous fishes, planktivorous fishes/invertebrate eaters, and invertebrates). Surprisingly, results also show that the relative impacts of reserves, such as the proportional differences in density or biomass, are independent of reserve size, suggesting that the effects of marine reserves increase directly rather than proportionally with the size of a reserve. However, equal relative differences in biological measures between small and large reserves nearly always translate into greater absolute differences for larger reserves, and so larger reserves may be necessary to meet the goals set for marine reserves. The quality of the data in the reviewed studies varied greatly. To improve data quality in the future, whenever possible, studies should take measurements before and after the creation of a reserve, replicate sampling, and include a suite of representative species. Despite the variable quality of the data, the results from this review suggest that nearly any marine habitat can benefit from the implementation of a reserve. Success of a marine reserve, however, will always be judged against the expectations for that reserve, and so we must keep in mind the goals of a reserve in its design, management, and evaluation.",,S117-S137,,1 SUPPL.,13,,Ecol.

The Ocean Health Index (OHI) is one of the few indicators available for this purpose. Here we present results from five years of annual global assessment for 220 countries and territories, evaluating potential drivers and consequences of changes and presenting lessons learned about the challenges of using composite indicators to measure sustainability goals. Globally scores have shown little change, as would be expected. However, individual countries have seen notable increases or declines due in particular to improvements in the harvest and management of wild-caught fisheries, the creation of marine protected areas (MPAs), and decreases in natural product harvest. Rapid loss of sea ice and the consequent reduction of coastal protection from that sea ice was also responsible for declines in overall ocean health in many Arctic and sub-Arctic countries. The OHI performed reasonably well at predicting near-term future scores for many of the ten goals measured, but data gaps and limitations hindered these predictions for many other goals. Ultimately, all indicators face the substantial challenge of informing policy for progress toward broad goals and objectives with insufficient monitoring and assessment data. If countries and the global community hope to achieve and maintain healthy oceans, we will need to dedicate significant resources to measuring what we are trying to manage. © 2017 Halpern et al.

Here, we develop that theory and implement it for three very different case studies in California (United States), Raja Ampat (Indonesia), and the wider Coral Triangle region (Southeast Asia). We show that equity tends to trade off nonlinearly with the potential to achieve conservation objectives, such that similar conservation outcomes can be possible with greater equity, to a point. However, these case studies also produce a range of trade-off typologies between equity and conservation, depending on how one defines and measures social equity, including direct (linear) and no trade-off. Important gaps remain in our understanding, most notably how equity influences probability of conservation success, in turn affecting the actual ability to achieve conservation objectives.

Despite considerable empirical evidence that abundance and biomass of fished species increase within marine reserve boundaries, the potential for reserves to provide fisheries and conservation benefits to adjacent waters remains heavily debated. This paper uses statistical and population models to evaluate published empirical data on adult spillover from marine reserves and shows that spillover is a common phenomenon for species that respond positively to reserve protection, but at relatively small scales, detectable on average up to 800 m from reserve boundaries. At these small scales, local fisheries around reserves were likely unsustainable in 12 of 14 cases without the reserve, and spillover partially or fully offsets losses in catch due to reserve closure in the other two cases. For reserves to play a role in sustaining and replenishing larger-scale fished stocks, networks of reserves may be necessary, but as few exist this is difficult to evaluate. The results suggest reserves can simultaneously meet conservation objectives and benefit local fisheries adjacent to their boundaries.

These analyses revealed large stretches of coastal oceans wherereserves canplayamajor role inreducing cumulative impacts and thus improving overall ocean condition, at the same time highlighting the limitations of marine reserves as a single tool to achieve comprehensive EBM.

Managing and conserving these systems in the face of uncertainty remains a daunting challenge, particularly with respect to developing networks of marine reserves. Here we review several modelling frameworks that explicitly acknowledge and incorporate uncertainty, and then use these methods to evaluate reserve spacing rules given increasing levels of uncertainty about larval dispersal distances. Our approach finds similar spacing rules as have been proposed elsewhere - roughly 20-200 km - but highlights several advantages provided by uncertainty modelling over more traditional approaches to developing these estimates. In particular, we argue that uncertainty modelling can allow for (1) an evaluation of the risk associated with any decision based on the assumed uncertainty; (2) a method for quantifying the costs and benefits of reducing uncertainty; and (3) a useful tool for communicating to stakeholders the challenges in managing highly uncertain systems. We also argue that incorporating rather than avoiding uncertainty will increase the chances of successfully achieving conservation and management goals. ©2005 Blackwell Publishing Ltd/CNRS.",,02-Nov,,1,9,,Ecol.

Subsequently, the results were consulted with four national forest policy experts. Despite the three decades-lasting transformation process, in Slovakia, forest policy is characterised by a strong influence of governmental actors, centralisation, and prevailing hierarchical use of policy instruments. Nature protection actors enter the policy arena, for instance, to expand protected areas. The top-down planning has an impact on the forest owners’ performance of rights to use their forests. Non-governmental actors attempt to enforce their interests through participation mechanisms, inter-ministerial commenting procedures, and voluntary instruments.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) have been implemented around the world and are effective conservation tools that can mitigate some of these threats and build resilience when designed and managed well. However, despite a rich scientific literature on MPA effectiveness, science is not the main driver behind the design and implementation of many MPAs, leading to variable MPA effectiveness and bias in global MPA representativity. As a result, the marine conservation community focuses on promoting the creation of more MPAs as well as more effective ones, however no structure to improve or accelerate effective MPA implementation currently exists. To safeguard marine ecosystems on a global scale and better monitor progress toward ecosystem protection, robust science-based criteria are needed for evaluating MPAs and synthesizing the extensive and interdisciplinary science on MPA effectiveness. This paper presents a strategic initiative led by Marine Conservation Institute called the Global Ocean Refuge System (GLORES). GLORES aims to set standards to improve the quality of MPAs and catalyze strong protection for at least 30% of the ocean by 2030. Such substantial increase in marine protection is needed to maintain the resilience of marine ecosystems and restore their benefits to people. GLORES provides a comprehensive strategy that employs the rich body of MPA science to scale up existing marine conservation efforts. © 2017 Hameed, Cornick, Devillers and Morgan.",,,,JUN,4,,Front.

There are currently a variety of predictive and analytical methods for assessing future climates and biological responses to the changes, but an assessment produced by any one of these methods is necessarily limited in scope. When making management decisions, therefore, it is beneficial to have information from a variety of sources and analytical methods, and to compare the agreements and discrepancies among them. Based on existing climate change vulnerability assessment frameworks in the literature, we developed a multi-faceted climate change vulnerability assessment at the biological community level comprised of: a) expert judgment, b) predictive vegetation mapping, c) predictive geophysical mapping, and d) species-specific evaluations. We wrote a climate change vulnerability assessment for Point Reyes National Seashore and evaluated the usefulness of each facet, alone and in concert. We found that the facets were complementary and that each one was useful to inform some management goals; we also found that expert judgment was the most widely applicable and flexible assessment method. We believe that this multi-faceted framework can be employed in other protected areas to facilitate management decisions under a changing and uncertain future climate. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,37-47,,,121,,J.

Following a request from the local Environment Service, we developed an indicative conservation plan for each island with two objectives: (1) representing 20% of the extent of each coral reef habitat within no-take areas while (2) keeping all subsistence fishing grounds open for extraction. The first objective was more ambitious than the current Convention on Biological Diversity (Aichi) targets. We found that both objectives could not be achieved simultaneously and that large compromises are needed. Due to the small size of these islands, and the dependence of local communities on coral reef resources, the fishery objective significantly limited the extent of most habitats available for conservation. The problem is exacerbated if the conservation plan uses larger conservation units and more complex habitat typologies. Our results indicate that international conservation guidelines should be carefully adapted to small Pacific islands and that incentives to make feasible the necessary reductions in available fishing grounds will probably be needed. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.",,46-57,,1,6,,Conserv.

In this study we satellite tracked 30 adult female hawksbill turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata) that were captured after nesting in the Arnavon Community Marine Park (ACMP), Solomon Islands. Ten hawksbill turtles were tagged in April 2016, ten in May 2017 and ten in November 2018. Our primary aim was to determine if the ACMP boundaries that were demarcated in 1995 were large enough to protect female hawksbill turtles throughout their entire nesting season. Our home range analysis revealed that collectively, tracked hawksbill turtles spent 98.5% of their inter-nesting season within the ACMP, confirming that the original park boundaries were adequate. Our first year's results were shared with community and government stakeholders and assisted in getting the ACMP declared as the Solomon Islands first national park in May 2017. Our fine scale analysis of inter-nesting habitats also highlighted that most hawksbill turtle nests were being laid on an island in the ACMP that did not have a permanent ranger presence and was experiencing persistent poaching. Based on this finding an additional ranger station was established on this uninhabited island and staffed with community rangers in 2017. Our study demonstrates how involving community, government and NGO stakeholders in applied research can lead to results being rapidly utilised to inform policy and conservation practice as soon as they become available. © 2021 The Author(s)",,,,,261,,Biol.

Yet there remain few studies which have examined the merits and caveats of local knowledge, or shown how combining both knowledge systems has resulted in better management outcomes. This study outlines collaborative efforts to conserve fish spawning aggregations (FSAs) in Roviana Lagoon, Western Solomon Islands. Baseline information on FSAs was obtained through local knowledge and spearfishing creel surveys. This information provided the starting point for establishing a 2-year community-based underwater monitoring program at the largest known FSA in Roviana Lagoon, where the brown-marbled grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus), camouflage grouper (Epinephelus polyphekadion) and squaretail coralgrouper (Plectropomus areolatus) co-aggregate. This participatory research shows that local knowledge on FSAs is utilised to maximise returns from fishing, with spearfishermen targeting aggregations at night during the lunar periods when abundances peak. Because of its shallow distribution P. areolatus is the most vulnerable of the three groupers to nighttime spearfishing, with two fishermen capable of removing 15-30% of the total spawning biomass in two nights. Underwater monitoring demonstrates that while fishermen provided accurate information on many aspects of FSAs, their knowledge on spawning seasons was inaccurate for the FSA reported on here. Peak aggregations occurred from December to April each year, which differs from the traditionally recognised grouper season of October to January. A combination of local knowledge and science was used to develop appropriate management measures for this FSA, with the aggregation declared a community-based marine protected area (MPA) in 2006. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,246-257,,1,145,,Biol.

In Roviana Lagoon, Western Solomon Islands, a network of community-based marine protected areas (MPAs) was established in the early 2000s to conserve declining populations of bumphead parrotfish (Bolbometopon muricatum) and other locally valuable fish species such as humphead wrasse (Cheilinus undulatus). We aimed to evaluate the success of these protected areas at preventing declines of B. muricatum and C. undulatus. We conducted 27 underwater visual census (UVC) surveys at permanent passage and outer reef monitoring sites in Roviana Lagoon in 2018 and compared our findings with results from 72 UVC surveys that we had conducted at the same sites 18 yrs earlier. We also interviewed Roviana spearfishers about their maximum nightly B. muricatum catches from 2018, the early 2000s and the 1980s. Abundances of all B. muricatum and C. undulatus sighted on UVC surveys declined by 62% and 57%, respectively, between 2000 and 2018, and abundances of adult B. muricatum and C. undulatus declined by 78% and 72%, respectively, over the same period. Using a joint model of B. muricatum abundance and its reported maximum catch, we estimated that in 2018 the population of B. muricatum was 8% of its 1980’s abundance. By modelling projected rates of decline over three generations, we show that populations of B. muricatum and C. undulatus in Roviana Lagoon meet the IUCN Red List thresholds for Critically Endangered (CR). The probable causes of these declines are sustained fishing pressure, poor enforcement of community-based management measures and loss of fish nursery habitats due to logging. Our findings suggest urgent co-management of the ridge-to-reef system is needed to prevent further fish population declines in Roviana Lagoon. © 2019, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,455-465,,3,38,,Coral Reefs,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Verlag,,,,abundance; Anthozoa; Bayesian generalized linear model; Bolbometopon muricatum; Cheilinus undulatus; community resource management; conservation; Coral Triangle; endangered species; finfish; fishery management; IUCN Red List; Local knowledge; monitoring; Monitoring; New Georgia; New Georgia Islands; numerical model; Pacific Ocean; perciform; population decline; protected area; Red List; Roviana Lagoon; Scaridae; Solomon Islands [(ISG) Melanesia]; Solomon Islands [Solomon Islands (ISG)]; traditional knowledge,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

There is a growing need for scientific guidance in the design of network-wide monitoring programs to evaluate the efficacy of reserves at meeting their conservation and management goals. Here, we present an evaluation of the Channel Islands reserve network, whichwas established in 2003 off the coast of southern California. This reserve network spans a major environmental and biogeographic gradient, making it a challenge to assess network-wide responses of many species. Using fish community structure data from a long-term, large-scale monitoring program, we first identified persistent geographic patterns of community structure and the scale at which sites should be grouped for analysis. Fish communities differedmost among islandswith densities of individual species varying from 3- to 250-fold. Habitat structure differed among islands but not based on reserve status. Across the network, we found that, after 5 years, species targeted by fishing had higher densities (1.5x) and biomass (1.8x) inside reserves, whereas nontargeted species showed no significant differences. Examining trophic groups, piscivore and carnivore biomass was significantly greater inside reserves (1.8x and 1.3x more, respectively), whereas the biomass of planktivores and herbivores was similar inside and out.

Among others, monitoring aims at contributing towards understanding the influence of anthropogenic use (e.g. fisheries), the health of a stock and individuum and effectiveness of management and conservation measures (e.g. MPAs). Monitoring of demersal and benthic fish communities is often based on invasive methods like bottom trawling, however in some cases less invasive methods might be available. The need for developing alternative and less invasive monitoring methods is supported by an increasing number of Marine Protected Areas and Windfarms where traditional methods such as trawls cannot be deployed due to conservational or technical and safety reasons. To support the development of new monitoring concepts, we conducted a literature review to identify limits and opportunities of methods that are already available. Furthermore, we present a fit-for purpose guide that can help identifying the appropriate method for individual purposes. We defined eight different methods which were analyzed using four different criteria and listed their advantages and disadvantages. We further apply this guide to monitoring in Marine Protected Areas in the Baltic Sea as a case study, indicating that besides traditional bottom trawling, alternative and less invasive methods could be sufficient for specific research purposes. We therefore, encourage scientists and managers to consider alternative data collection methods to minimize environmental impact of scientific sampling. However, our results also indicate that most of the methods still need further refinement especially regarding sampling design, standardization of methods and comparability with established survey methods.

Justification for the establishment of large oceanic MPAs often includes the conservation benefits that they would bring for tuna stocks, which are the subject of important commercial fisheries in the Pacific. The aim of this paper was to evaluate the conservation efficacy of an existing MPA, the Phoenix Islands Protected Area (PIPA) and a series of large hypothetical MPAs each constituting approximately 33% of the western and central Pacific Ocean, for two important and contrasting tuna species, skipjack and bigeye tuna. The evaluation was conducted by comparing control and counterfactual simulations in which the estimated population and fishery dynamics of the species were modelled using a high-resolution modelling framework known as SEAPODYM (Spatial Ecosystem And Population DYnamics Model). We found that stock-wide conservation benefits of the PIPA for these species, assuming that total fishing effort is maintained, to be weak to non-existent, and only modest increases in spawning biomass of both species occur within and in the near vicinity of the PIPA itself. For the larger 33% hypothetical MPAs, changes in stock-wide spawning biomass were estimated to be -0.1% to +5.8% for skipjack tuna and +4.8% to +12.0% for bigeye tuna. Conservation efficacy of MPAs for species such as tropical tunas is limited by their wide larval dispersal and high mobility of later life stages, which spatially dissipate the protective effects of MPAs. Also, the displacement of fishing effort from MPAs to areas remaining open can have negative consequences for stocks and fisheries performance in those areas. We conclude that large oceanic MPAs are not likely to be effective frontline management tools for tropical tunas and other species having similar life history characteristics.

The research results indicated that there were a total of 164 plant species belonging to 62 families and 124 genera in the four community types. The species richness of the tree layer and shrub layer of the four community types was lower than that of the herb layer. The species richness index of the spruce, fir, and red pine forest was shown as herb layer (3. 06), tree layer (2. 89), and shrub layer (1. 64) from large to small. The species richness index of the birch forest showed from large to small in the herb layer (3. 22), shrub layer (1. 02), and tree layer (0. 33). The species richness index of poplar forest showed from large to small in the herb layer (5. 09), tree layer (1. 29), and shrub layer (0. 89). The species richness index of Mongolian oak forest showed from large to small in the herb layer (4. 74), shrub layer (0. 88), and tree layer (0. 59).

Their abundance, widespread distribution, and heterogeneity of faunal and abiotic components require integrated studies at multiscale to describe spatial patterns and identify environmental drivers needed by conservation plans. There is also a lack of knowledge on seamount benthic ecosystems in some regions, such as the Indian Ocean. These gaps, in the context of Marine Protected Areas establishment in the region, have motivated the present study focusing on the Mozambique Channel Eparses islands and flat top seamounts, along a 10-degree latitude gradient. These structures are characterized by complex volcanic and carbonate geomorphologies at multiscale and are distributed along a highly dynamic turbulent ocean circulation area with large anticyclonic eddies. For the first time, we analysed, from seabed image transects obtained by towed-camera on four seamounts, and two volcanic islands - Bassas da India and Mayotte - external slopes, and from multiscale environmental data, how benthic communities respond to this high habitat heterogeneity at regional, and local scales. This study reveals high discrepancies of benthic megafauna richness, density, and beta diversity among seamounts and among slopes of the same islands. Moreover, at similar latitude, seamounts display higher densities than island slopes. The highest densities found on a seamount of the Glorieuses archipelago are explained by strong currents and flat homogeneous geomorphology. Except on this seamount, the beta diversity is high, despite the quite limited depth range explored (84–734 m) and is the highest on island slopes and Hall Bank, driven by the diversity and hardness of the substrate. Beta diversity is mainly due to taxa turnover, with high contribution of the habitat-forming sponges and cnidarians, together with a few mobile taxa. We identified from biogeographic network analysis 12 dominant faunal assemblages, displaying a patchy distribution, with variability in composition both among and within sites. Currents and primary productivity explain ?15% of the observed assemblage structure along the channel, while geomorphology (km scale), topography (60–500 m scale) and substrate (60-m units) explain together 24% of the faunal spatial patterns. Analysis of spatial structures along island slopes detected some small (100–200 m), medium (?1 km) and large scale (?2–6 km) megabenthic community structures, partly explained by topography, substrate, depth, and slope. Despite limited taxonomic identifications for this poorly sampled area, this study reveals an outstanding heterogeneity of megabenthic assemblages at multispatial scales in the Mozambique Channel seamounts and island slopes, in response to the complex hydrography and geology of the area. Further characterization of environmental drivers with greater focus at local scales including hydrographic variables are therefore needed to improve predictions of suitable habitats of vulnerable marine ecosystems. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,203,,Deep-Sea Res.

To keep pace with increasing pressures on the environment, conservation efforts need to be strengthened and expanded. The Government of Indonesia has committed to protecting marine ecosystems through establishing 32.5 million ha of marine protected areas (MPAs), with 20 million ha effectively managed, by 2030. Therefore, collating data on the status and progress of marine conservation efforts nationally is important to show the extent to which this target is being reached. Here we provide an overview of the status and trends of spatial coverage and management effectiveness of MPAs in Indonesia. As of 2020, Indonesia had made good progress in reaching its target – with 23.9 million ha MPA established and some —albeit slow— increases in MPA management effectiveness. Moving forward, we recommend that marine protection efforts in Indonesia need to balance MPAs expansion with improvement in effectiveness. Improvement of management effectiveness will require significant efforts, including improving institutional coordination, ensuring adequate human and financial resources, and strengthened monitoring, evaluation, and learning to inform adaptive management. Future MPA expansion should focus on addressing specific gaps in the existing network, such as increasing coastal habitat representation, and connectivity, or increasing recognition of a diversity of governance approaches (e.g., by communities or private entities). Progress over recent decades, however, suggests Indonesia is making progress on its marine protection goals and is well placed to meet potential future targets. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,146,,Mar.

In the Southern Ocean around Antarctica, a region where key biodiversity faces unprecedented risks from climate change and where there is a growing demand to extract resources, a number of marine areas have been afforded enhanced conservation or management measures through two adopted marine protected areas (MPAs). However, evidence suggests that additional high quality areas could benefit from a proposed network of MPAs. Penguins offer a particular opportunity to identify high quality areas because these birds, as highly visible central-place foragers, are considered indicator species whose populations reflect the state of the surrounding marine environment. We compiled a comprehensive dataset of the location of penguin colonies and their associated abundance estimates in Antarctica. We then estimated the at-sea distribution of birds based on information derived from tracking data and through the application of a modified foraging radius approach with a density decay function to identify some of the most important marine areas for chick-rearing adult penguins throughout waters surrounding Antarctica following the Important Bird and Biodiversity Area (IBA) framework. Additionally, we assessed how marine IBAs overlapped with the currently adopted and proposed network of key management areas (primarily MPAs), and how the krill fishery likely overlapped with marine IBAs over the past five decades. We identified 63 marine IBAs throughout Antarctic waters and found that were the proposed MPAs to be adopted, the permanent conservation of high quality areas for penguin species would increase by between 49 and 100% depending on the species. Furthermore, our data show that, despite a generally contracting range of operation by the krill fishery in Antarctica over the past five decades, a consistently disproportionate amount of krill is being harvested within marine IBAs compared to the total area in which the fishery operates. Our results support the designation of the proposed MPA network and offer additional guidance as to where decision-makers should act before further perturbation occurs in the Antarctic marine ecosystem. © Copyright © 2021 Handley, Rouyer, Pearmain, Warwick-Evans, Teschke, Hinke, Lynch, Emmerson, Southwell, Griffith, Cárdenas, Franco, Trathan and Dias.",,,,,7,,Front.

Within large multi-use MPAs, it is often unclear to what degree critical sites of biodiversity are afforded protection against commercial activities. Addressing this issue is a prerequisite if we are to appropriately assess sites against conservation targets. We evaluated whether the management regime of a large MPA conserved sites (Key Biodiversity Areas, KBAs) supporting the global persistence of top marine predators. Location: Southwest Atlantic Ocean. Method: We collated population and tracking data (1,418 tracks) from 14 marine predator species (Procellariiformes, Sphenisciformes, Pinnipedia) that breed at South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, and identified hotspots for their conservation under the recently developed KBA framework. We then evaluated the spatiotemporal overlap of these sites and the different management regimes of krill, demersal longline and pelagic trawl fisheries operating within a large MPA, which was created with the intention to protect marine predator species. Results: We identified 12 new global marine KBAs that are important for this community of top predators, both within and beyond the focal MPA. Only three species consistently used marine areas at a time when a potentially higher-risk fishery was allowed to operate in that area, while other interactions between fisheries and our target species were mostly precluded by MPA management plans. Main conclusions: We show that current fishery management measures within the MPA contribute to protecting top predators considered in this study and that resource harvesting within the MPA does not pose a major threat—under current climate conditions. Unregulated fisheries beyond the MPA, however, pose a likely threat to identified KBAs. Our approach demonstrates the utility of the KBA guidelines and multispecies tracking data to assess the contributing role of well-designed MPAs in achieving local and internationally agreed conservation targets. © 2020 The Authors.

This review summarises the existing knowledge, presently occurring and planned research projects, and current conservation measures for humpback dolphins in Western Australia (WA). Rapid and wide-scale coastal development along the northern WA coastline has occurred despite a lack of baseline data for inshore dolphins and, therefore, without a precautionary approach to their conservation. The distribution, abundance, habitat use, and population structure of humpback dolphins remain poorly understood. Less than 1% of their inferred distribution has so far been studied to understand local population demography. The sparse data available suggest that WA humpback dolphins occur as localised populations in low numbers within a range of inshore habitats, including both clear and turbid coastal waters. Marine protected areas cover a third of their inferred distribution in WA, but the efficacy of these reserves in protecting local cetacean populations is unknown. There is a pressing need for coordination and collaboration among scientists, government agencies, industry bodies, Traditional Owners, and local community groups to fill in the gaps of information on humpback dolphins in WA. The recently developed strategies and sampling guidelines developed by state and federal governments should serve as a best practise standard for collection of data aimed at assessing the conservation status of humpback dolphins in WA and Australia. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.",,193-218,,,73,,,,,,,,Academic Press,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Adv.

At the same time that space for nature is being defined, climate change will be moving nature around. Species are now on the move to track climate change both on land and in the oceans, a process that is accelerating under dramatic new extreme events. This is an opportune time to review conservation recommendations made early in the millennium, to see how many have been taken on board over the past 20 years, and how much is left to be done to adapt to climate change as conservation pushes toward 30×30. The history of Climate Change–Integrated Conservation Strategies begins with two papers published by a group of prominent climate change biologists in 2002. The importance of including adaptation to climate change in conservation was underscored by the first estimates of extinction risk due to climate change in 2004. Subsequent literature has developed concepts such as velocity of climate change and assisted migration. Regional modeling of biodiversity change, expanding protected areas to facilitate species range movements, and managing productive landscapes to facilitate species movements are all now considered “business as usual” for conservation planning for climate change. Regional coordination of conservation efforts to ensure that species on the move are managed for climate change consistently across their range, on the other hand, is under-represented in literature and practice. Improving both theory and practice of regional coordination for climate change is an important priority for conservation now and in the future. Conservation for climate change has focused mostly on warming scenarios, but failure to act on climate change emissions reduction means that meeting Paris Agreement targets will almost certainly have to include both warming past those targets and subsequent cooling back to the target. Managing this double transition is a second critical point of emphasis for climate change biology as the world moves to 30×30. Copyright © 2023 by the author(s).",,Jan-24,,,48,,Annu. Rev. Environ.

The influence of this land use change on ecological processes is poorly understood. The goal of this paper is to draw on ecological theory to provide a synthetic framework for understanding how land use change around protected areas may alter ecological processes and biodiversity within protected areas and to provide a basis for identifying scientifically based management alternatives. We first present a conceptual model of protected areas embedded within larger ecosystems that often include surrounding human land use. Drawing on case studies in this Invited Feature, we then explore a comprehensive set of ecological mechanisms by which land use on surrounding lands may influence ecological processes and biodiversity within reserves. These mechanisms involve changes in ecosystem size, with implications for minimum dynamic area, species-area effect, and trophic structure; altered flows of materials and disturbances into and out of reserves; effects on crucial habitats for seasonal and migration movements and population source/sink dynamics; and exposure to humans through hunting, poaching, exotics species, and disease. These ecological mechanisms provide a basis for assessing the vulnerability of protected areas to land use. They also suggest criteria for designing regional management to sustain protected areas in the context of surrounding human land use. These design criteria include maximizing the area of functional habitats, identifying and maintaining ecological process zones, maintaining key migration and source habitats, and managing human proximity and edge effects. © 2007 by the Ecological Society of America.",,974-988,,4,17,,Ecol.

In this study, we compared analytically the conservation value of these two approaches. We locate this study in Danajon Bank, central Philippines, where many MPAs were established opportunistically based on community preference, with few if any contributions from biophysical data. We began by identifying the biophysical data that would have been available when the first MPA was created in Danajon Bank (1995). We next used these data with the reserve selection software Marxan to identify MPAs that covered the same area as is protected under the current set of MPAs (0.32% of the total study area) and that would protect the greatest number of conservation targets at the lowest cost. We finally compared the conservation value of the current MPAs to the value of those selected by Marxan. Because of the dearth of biophysical data available in 1995 and the small area currently under protection, Marxan identified multiple configurations of MPAs that would protect the same percentage of conservation targets, with little differentiation among sites. Further, we discovered that the costs of obtaining and analyzing these data to be used for conservation planning would have been large relative to resources typically available to conservation planners in developing countries. Finally, we found that the current set of MPAs protected more ecological features than would be expected by chance, although not as many as could be protected using a systematic approach. Our results suggest that an opportunistic approach can be a valuable component of conservation planning, especially when biophysical data are sparse and community acceptance is a critical factor affecting the success of an MPA. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,1866-1875,,6,144,,Biol.

Adaptive radiation within fishes of the Coregonus lavaretus complex has created numerous morphs, posing significant challenges for taxonomy and conservation priorities. The highly endangered North Sea houting (C. oxyrhynchus; abbreviated NSH) has been considered a separate species from European lake whitefish (C. lavaretus; abbreviated ELW) due to morphological divergence and adaptation to oceanic salinities. However, its evolutionary and taxonomic status is controversial. We analysed microsatellite DNA polymorphism in nine populations from the Jutland Peninsula and the Baltic Sea, representing NSH (three populations, two of which are reintroduced) and ELW (six populations). The objectives were to: 1) analyse postglacial recolonization of whitefish in the region; 2) assess the evolutionary distinctiveness of NSH, and 3) apply several approaches for defining conservation units towards setting conservation priorities for NSH. Results. Bayesian cluster analyses of genetic differentiation identified four major groups, corresponding to NSH and three groups of ELW (Western Jutland, Central Jutland, Baltic Sea). Estimates of historical migration rates indicated recolonization in a north-eastern direction, suggesting that all except the Baltic Sea population predominantly represent postglacial recolonization via the ancient Elbe River. Contemporary gene flow has not occurred between NSH and ELW, with a divergence time within the last 4,000 years suggested from coalescence methods. NSH showed interbreeding with ELW when brought into contact by stocking. Thus, reproductive isolation of NSH was not absolute, although possible interbreeding beyond the F1 level could not be resolved. Conclusion. Fishes of the C. lavaretus complex in the Jutland Peninsula originate from the same recolonization event. NSH has evolved recently and its species status may be questioned due to incomplete reproductive isolation from ELW, but it was shown to merit consideration as an independent conservation unit. Yet, application of several approaches for defining conservation units generated mixed outcomes regarding its conservation priority. Within the total species complex, it remains one among many recently evolved unique forms. Its uniqueness and high conservation priority is more evident at a local geographical scale, where conservation efforts will also benefit populations of a number of other endangered species. © 2008 Hansen et al; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.",,,,1,8,,BMC Evol.

While EAF strives to balance between, among others, ecological and social-economic objectives, RBM is driving the sector towards economic efficiency. Within EAF itself, there are still underlying mismatches between the two top objectives, 'human wellbeing' and 'ecological wellbeing', in effect requiring a better balance between these objectives than there is currently. For example, fishers do not believe they should be competing with marine mammals and birds for allocation of the resource, yet this is one of the primary trade-offs that have to be made when setting the annual total allowable catches (TACs) under EAF. A balance between the two objectives could be achieved through acceptable trade-offs between them among all stakeholders within inclusive governance. Implementation of RBM has had both positive and negative effects on the objectives for EAF. Of concern are the negative effects of RBM on human wellbeing. For example, fishers feel that RBM has weakened their bargaining position, thereby reducing their benefits. In addition, RBM has resulted in job losses and insecurity of employment within the fisheries sector. The most affected have been the most vulnerable - the low level workers - who ought to be the key beneficiaries of RBM. Thus prioritising and protecting vulnerable groups and fishing communities need careful consideration when creating RBM, even in the context of EAF. Rights-based management has also had negative effects on ecological wellbeing through practices such as increased dumping and 'high grading' as part of industry's drive for increased efficiency under RBM. Whereas scientists believe that variability is largely due to environmental conditions, fishers strongly feel that dumping, high grading and high fishing pressure are the main factors. One of the positive aspects of RBM has been improved understanding among rights-holders and fishers of the need to consider other organisms in the TAC and to protect these through establishment of marine protected areas, island perimeter closures and limiting bycatch, thereby impacting positively on ecological wellbeing. © 2013 NISC (Pty) Ltd.",,315-322,,3,35,,Afr.

Materials and Methods: Viability of cells was determined by the MTT method. Cytotoxicity was evaluated as the concentration that reduced cell viability by 50% (CC50). Tumor specificity of paclitaxel was determined as the ratio of CC50 against non-malignant cells to that against malignant cells. Results: Paclitaxel was three-fold more cytotoxic towards human oral squamous cell carcinoma cell lines (Ca9-22, HSC-2, HSC-3. HSC-4) than human normal epithelial and mesenchymal (human gingival fibroblast, human periodontal ligament fibroblast, human pulp cell) normal cells, confirming its antitumor potential. However, paclitaxel at as low a concentration as 5 ng/ml significantly reduced neurite formation in nerve growth factor-induced differentiated PC12 cells, although complete killing of cells was not achieved even at 2,000-fold higher concentration (10 ?M). Paclitaxel-induced neurotoxicity was enhanced with the prolongation of incubation time and reduction of inoculation cell density. Four antioxidants, namely docosahexaenoic acid, acetyl-L-carnitine hydrochloride, N-acetyl-L-cysteine and sodium ascorbate, only partially protected PC12 cells from paclitaxel-induced toxicity. Conclusion: The present study suggests the involvement of both oxidative and other mechanisms in paclitaxel-induced neurotoxicity. © 2018 Universidade Federal Rural do Semi-Arido.

To assess decadal changes in rocky reef fish assemblages following MPA protection, fish assemblages were monitored regularly in the Port Stephens-Great Lakes Marine Park (PSGLMP), New South Wales, Australia, using Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUVs) comparing between fished and non-fished zones. Spatial and temporal heterogeneity of fish assemblages and fishery targeted species were assessed from 2006–2016 at two no-take zones at Broughton and Fingal Islands, and compared with nearby fished areas. A total of 102 species from families was observed over the study, with fish assemblage response being dependent on both the spatial scales of MPA zoning and locations within the park, and the temporal scales assessed. Five fishery targeted families, Labridae, Scorpaenidae, Sparidae, Monacanthidae and Cheilodactylidae, increased in relative abundance within no-take zones, compared with fished zones, although the response was variable among families and between locations. While abundance increased at both locations following the implementation of no-take zones, a significant zoning effect was only detected at Broughton Island, with the Labridae and Sparidae displaying the greatest increases in relative abundance within the no-take zone. This study demonstrates that the response of fish assemblages and targeted fishery families to the implementation of no-take MPA zones varies both temporally, and between locations. Differences in the assemblage response between locations are likely driven by the size and habitats within the no-take zones and these factors need to be adequately considered in MPA planning. © 2017",,229-236,,,18,,Reg.

Snapper Chrysophrys auratus are an important recreational and commercial fish species in New South Wales (NSW), Australia, and despite fishery management for this species, they are considered ""growth overfished"" in this region. To assess how C. auratus respond to the implementation of an MPA with several no-take and partially protected areas in temperate NSW, we monitored their populations over a decade (2006-2017) using baited remote underwater video systems (BRUVs). Surveys were conducted in the Port Stephens-Great Lakes Marine Park with BRUVs deployed on rocky reefs in depths of 20-50 m. Long term seasonal sampling (winter vs. summer) was undertaken at two locations (Broughton and Fingal Island), and changes in C. auratus abundance prior to, and 8 years after zoning implementation, were assessed between these two locations. In total, we sampled five no-take areas within the marine park and five comparative nearby partially protected fished areas and three sites located outside the marine park boundaries. The most pronounced changes in abundance and size structure for C. auratus were observed in the Broughton Island no-take area where numbers increased almost 3-fold (2.91 times) over 8 years of protection. Relative abundance showed seasonal variation at two locations, and we consistently recorded increasing abundance within no-take areas at Broughton and Fingal Island compared to nearby sites open to fishing. Surveys across the five no-take areas found a significant increase in the abundance of C. auratus, whilst the five partially-protected locations in the marine park still recorded higher abundances than sites outside the marine park. In addition, length measurements from stereo-BRUVS indicated that C. auratus were significantly larger in no-take areas compared to partially-protected areas in the marine park and sites outside the marine park. This study demonstrates how the implementation of the marine park and the protection afforded by no-take and partially-protected areas provides refuge for this important fishery targeted species. © 2018 Harasti, Williams, Mitchell, Lindfield and Jordan.",,,,JUN,5,,Front.

We also examine the relative importance of anthropogenic and natural factors on fishes at biogeographical scales. Location: Reefs of five jurisdictions in Micronesia. Methods: A subset of 1,127 fish surveys (470 surveys) was used to calculate site-specific mean parrotfish lengths (a proxy for cumulative fishing impact), which were modelled against 20 biophysical and anthropogenic variables. The resulting model was extrapolated to each 1 ha reef cell in the region to generate a fishing impact map. The remaining data (657 surveys) were then used to model fish biomass using 15 response variables, including fishing impact. This model was used to map estimated current regional fish standing stocks and, by setting fishing impact to 0, potential standing stocks. Results: Human population pressure and distance to port were key anthropogenic variables predicting fishing impact. Total fish biomass was negatively correlated with fishing, but the influence of natural gradients of primary productivity, sea surface temperature, habitat quality and larval supply was regionally more important. Main conclusions: Mean parrotfish length appears to be a useful fishery-independent metric for modelling Pacific fishing impact, but considering environmental covariates is critical. Explicitly modelling fishing impact has multiple benefits, including generation of the first large-scale map of tropical fishing impacts that can inform conservation planning. Using fishing impact data to map current and potential fish stocks provides further benefits, including highlighting the relative importance of fishing on fish biomass and identifying key biophysical variables that cause maximum potential biomass to vary significantly across the region. Regional-scale maps of fishing, fish standing stocks and the potential benefits of protection are likely to lead to improved conservation outcomes during reserve network planning. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,1729-1743,,12,24,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,ABUNDANCE; Anthozoa; anthropogenic effect; biogeography; biophysical gradients; boosted regression trees; CONSERVATION; conservation status; coral reef; coral reef fishes; fish; fish standing stocks; FISHERIES; fishery management; fishing; fishing impact; HABITAT; habitat quality; hydrological modeling; INDICATORS; marine park; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; marine reserves; marine spatial planning; micronesia; Micronesia; modeling; NO-TAKE AREAS; Pacific Ocean; Pisces; population pressure; primary production; regression analysis; RESERVES; RESILIENCE; REVEALS; Scaridae; sea surface salinity; sea surface temperature; spatial planning; stock assessment,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This study used video cameras to investigate the diurnal use of three Bahamian mangrove creeks by transient predators during a 2-month period. More than 500 fishes from 10 species were recorded, including elasmobranchs, reef-associated fishes, and nearshore specialists. A multivariate analysis indicated that movement of the transient predator assemblage was not significantly linked to any abiotic variable and did not vary among creeks. Generalized linear mixed-effects models of the four most abundant transient predators demonstrated species-specific variations in creek use. Sightings of Caranx ruber and Negaprion brevirostris varied significantly among the three creeks. Furthermore, C. ruber was seen most frequently close to high tide, while N. brevirostris was seen more frequently with increasing time since sunrise and during higher tidal ranges. Sphyraena barracuda and Tylosurus crocodilus were seen most frequently just after low tide. All three creeks appear to be functionally important for transient predators, but these species exhibit considerable spatio-temporal variability in how they use this habitat. Mangrove creeks are threatened by a range of anthropogenic stressors, and are frequently a target of conservation initiatives. The species-specific spatial variability in creek use demonstrates that simply including representative creeks in marine protected areas could exclude functionally important areas. Furthermore, development that alters tidal cycles in creeks is likely to have significant impacts on transient predators, and underscores the need for restoration and conservation of hydrological flow. © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,202-211,,1,26,,Aquatic Conserv.

Healthy marine ecosystems also play a broader role in climate regulation, coastal resilience and habitat provision. With Blue Belt Programme assistance, the UKOTs are developing enhanced protection and sustainable management strategies for their marine environments, using an Integrated Marine Management (IMM) approach. This coordinates cross-sectoral planning and management to carefully balance marine conservation and sustainable use of resources in order to minimize socio-cultural and economic impacts to the local community. We describe the IMM approach taken in two UKOT case studies. In Ascension Island, a conservation planning and resource management process was initiated with an objective to protect at least 50% of Ascension’s waters from commercial fishing, resulting in the designation of one of the largest Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in the Southern Atlantic. In St Helena, a new licensing framework for marine developments was developed within an existing sustainable use MPA. From these two approaches, we highlight aspects of the process, lessons learned and recommendations that may be useful for other small islands planning to implement IMM, particularly regarding the importance of effective stakeholder engagement, coordination across different governance scales, and long-term financial resources.

Revolving funds are used by conservation organisations to buy, resell and permanently protect private land with important ecological values. By reinvesting proceeds from sales in additional properties, revolving funds offer a potentially cost-effective way to protect biodiversity. Their success requires managers to choose properties that can be resold and recover costs, with resale outcomes having consequences for subsequent acquisitions. However, revolving fund property selection is a multi-dimensional decision, influenced by various ecological, social and financial considerations. In conjunction with revolving fund managers, we developed a Bayesian Belief Network (BBN) to understand which factors they consider to be the most influential on a property?s suitability for acquisition, and how much to pay for it. Sensitivity analysis revealed that managers perceive property suitability to be heavily influenced by the threat to the property?s ecological values, the acquisition and ongoing management costs, and finding alternative options for protection. Amenity values were seen to heavily influence property resale. Threat and alternative options influence how much to pay, but most influential was the balance of the fund when the purchasing decision is made. Our results suggest managers are taking a low risk approach to property selection. Opportunities may exist to apply revolving funds to higher risk properties otherwise difficult to conserve, provided the need for resale is still met. Ensuring revolving funds target properties with suitable attributes could increase the contribution of this tool to conserving biodiversity on private land. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,84-93,,,220,,Biol.

We compiled self-reports from managers and researchers of 78 coral reef-based MPAs world-wide, on the conservation and welfare improvements that their MPAs provide. We developed a suite of performance measures including fulfilment of design and management criteria, achievement of aims, the cessation of banned or destructive activities, change in threats, and measurable ecological and socio-economic changes in outcomes, which we evaluated with respect to the MPA's age, geographical location and main aims. The sample was found to be broadly representative of MPAs generally, and suggests that many MPAs do not achieve certain fundamental aims including improvements in coral cover over time (in 25% of MPAs), and conflict reduction (in 25%). However, the large majority demonstrated improvements in terms of slowing coral loss, reducing destructive uses and increasing tourism and local employment, despite many being small, underfunded and facing multiple large scale threats beyond the control of managers. However spatial comparisons suggest that in some regions MPAs are simply mirroring outside changes, with demonstrates the importance of testing for additionality. MPA benefits do not appear to increase linearly over time. In combination with other management efforts and regulations, especially those relating to large scale threat reduction and targeted fisheries and conflict resolution instruments, MPAs are an important tool to achieve coral reef conservation globally. Given greater resources and changes which incorporate best available science, such as larger MPAs and no-take areas, networks and reduced user pressure, it is likely that performance could further be enhanced. Performance evaluation should test for the generation of additional ecological and socio-economic improvements over time and compared to unmanaged areas as part of an adaptive management regime. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,684-700,,4,47,,Environ.

Climate change is one of the main stressors affecting the persistence and resilience of healthy marine ecosystems. However, protection against other stressors such as marine habitat loss and direct exploitation of natural marine resources is needed to ensure that conservation efforts are not threatened by cumulative combined effects. We used habitat risk assessment to explore the cumulative impacts of multiple stressors, including aquaculture activities, fishing vessel pressure, and climate change, on marine habitats of giant kelp forests. The assessment was applied in Chilean Patagonia, focusing on three protected areas: Magdalena Island National Park, Guaitecas National Reserve, and Kawésqar National Reserve. Our findings reveal that sea surface temperature increases, salmon farming, and the aquaculture-associated ship fleet are the stressors contributing most significantly to risk. High-risk areas are concentrated in northern Patagonia, specifically in the fjords of Guaitecas National Reserve and Magdalena Island National Park, with some risk hotspots found in the fjords of Kawésqar National Reserve. The highest risk levels are observed in scenarios that include both climate change and industrial salmon farming. Identifying the areas most at-risk is crucial for marine spatial planning because it allows for the design of targeted conservation actions to mitigate stressors and prevent risks from reaching levels that could compromise the integrity of marine habitats. The spatial approach used is key for informing future planning processes in Chilean Patagonia, where conflicts between intensive salmon farming, small-scale fishing, traditional Indigenous sea uses, and nature conservation are escalating. Despite some limitations in the data, our study provides valuable insights that can guide future conservation planning and policy-making, helping to balance economic activities with the need to protect and maintain the health of marine habitats in Chilean Patagonia. © 2024 by the author(s).",,,,4,29,,Ecol.

If persistence of live hard coral is a management goal, the existing protected areas within the Seychelles Bank may require review to ensure protection of sites with high recovery potential, while a suite of other management tools should be implemented in the remaining areas. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,667-679,,5,24,,Aquatic Conserv.

One of the priorities set out for Loango National Park (LNP) in an IUCN assessment of Gabon's protected areas was to produce a vascular plant checklist. Therefore, the primary goal of this research was to significantly increase the number of specimens for the park and make a concentrated effort to increase knowledge of plant diversity in the area. The secondary goal of this study was to analyse the flora of LNP in terms of phytogeography and endemism. Methods - A specimen-based botanical inventory was carried out in LNP (1005 herbarium specimens collected for this study were added to 752 existing records) and vegetation observations were made. Phytogeographical analyses were also performed using two different methods and datasets for comparison. Key results - A preliminary checklist of 686 species of vascular plants of LNP is presented, making a significant contribution to our knowledge of the flora of Gabon with more than twenty new country records. Conclusions -There is a surprisingly high proportion (15%) of the overall Gabonese flora recorded from within the park in this preliminary checklist. Further inventory within the park will undoubtedly produce a much higher percentage of the flora of the whole country. This high proportion is explained in part by the combination of restricted coastal endemics, diversity of habitats, and dynamic biological and physical processes. Phytogeographical analyses reveal different floristic relationships between the forest and savanna components of the flora suggesting different origins of these two biomes in coastal Gabon. The forest species are typically Guineo-Congolian in distribution and the savanna species are Sudano- Zambezian or widespread in distribution. Together, the faunal elements and the high diversity of the flora of Loango National Park make it a globally important site for conservation. © 2012 National Botanic Garden of Belgium and Royal Botanical Society of Belgium.",,242-257,,2,145,,Plant Ecol.

Therefore, managers need practical guidance on prioritizing the locations and types of conservation that most efficiently address their goals using limited resources. This study is one of the first examples of a vulnerability assessment for coral reefs that uses downscaled global climate change projections and local anthropogenic stress data to prioritize coral reef locations for conservation investment. Vulnerability was separated into manageable and unmanageable components (bleaching likelihood and local anthropogenic stressors, respectively), and the highest priority was given to places with low levels of unmanageable threats and high levels of manageable threats. Following prioritization, resilience characteristics were derived from standard reef monitoring data and used to identify the specific conservation strategies most likely to succeed given local ecological conditions and threats. Using Indonesian coral reefs as a case study, 9.1% of total coral reef area was identified as of high conservation priority, including parts of Raja Ampat, Sulawesi, and Sumatra that are not currently included in marine protected areas (MPAs). Existing MPAs tend to be located in areas less threatened by local-scale anthropogenic activities, which has implications for both the implementation costs and the likely impact of conservation investment. This approach employs common and publicly available data and can therefore be replicated wherever managers face the familiar challenge of allocating limited conservation resources in the face of rapid global change and uncertainty.

Here, we combine fine-scale climatic and dynamic land cover models to forecast species vulnerability in rain forest habitats. Location Sulawesi, Indonesia. Methods We sampled bird communities on four mountains across three seasons in Lore Lindu National Park, Sulawesi, Indonesia (a globally important hotspot of avian endemism), to characterize relationships between elevation and abundance. Deforestation from 2000 to 2010 was quantified, and predictors of deforestation were identified. Future forest area was projected under two land use change scenarios - one assuming current deforestation rates and another assuming a 50% reduction in deforestation. A digital elevation model and an adiabatic lapse rate were used to create a fine-scale map of temperature in the national park. Then, the effects of climate change were projected by fitting statistical models of species abundance as a function of current temperature and forecasting future abundance based on warming from low-and high-emissions climate change. Results The national park lost 11.8% of its forest from 2000 to 2010. Model-based projections indicate that high-elevation species (white-eared myza Myza sarasinorum and Sulawesi leaf-warbler Phylloscopus sarasinorum) might be buffered from deforestation because their ranges are isolated from human settlement, but these species may face steep population declines from climate change (by as much as 61%). The middle-elevation sulphur-bellied whistler Pachycephala sulfuriventer is predicted to undergo minor declines from climate change (8-11% reduction), while deforestation is predicted to cause larger declines of 13-19%. Main conclusions The biological richness and rapid deforestation now occurring inside the national park emphasize the need for increased enforcement, while our modelling suggests that climate change is most threatening to high-elevation endemics.

Also, the relative importance of different drivers of species distributions are compared through species distribution modelling. Location: The South African beaches are among the best-studied in the world, providing sufficient biological data for the analyses. There is also a well-established coastal protected-area network that putatively provides moderate protection to nearly all beach habitats. Methods: Species distribution maps of beach-dependent vertebrates, macrofauna, microflora, and foredune vegetation were compiled from existing sources or modelled using standard techniques. While some data were available for the latter analyses, additional sampling was required to improve bioregional coverage. Each species' distribution was coded to a detailed map of the South African shoreline. Representation of habitats and species in various configurations of existing reserves was determined. Results: Overall, 535 species have been recorded on the South African sandy shores, including 139 common species. Endemism is variable among taxonomic groups. Notably, two-thirds of the macrofauna are regional endemics, half of which are endemic to South Africa. For almost all of the common species, < 20 % of their distributions are protected in land-sea reserves. Protection of beach habitats is similarly poor ; conservation targets were not met in all cases, and most habitat types are considered Poorly Protected. Main conclusions: Sandy beach communities are considerably more diverse than they are generally acknowledged to be, and comprise a unique suite of biota. Given the species' narrow distributions and high degree of exposure to threats, many probably qualify as threatened/endangered. In spite of this, beaches are poorly represented in coastal reserve networks. To redress this issue, conservation planners need to account for beaches specifically, and to ensure they are represented in contiguous land-sea protected areas. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,1120-1135,,10,20,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,AREAS; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; ECOLOGY; GLOBAL PATTERNS; GROUNDWATER; MaxEnt; protected areas; Protected areas; sandy beaches; Sandy beaches; SELECTION; spatial prioritization; Spatial prioritization; species distribution models; Species distribution models; THREATS; WEST-COAST,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, the region is exposed to numerous anthropogenic pressures that are likely to escalate under future economic growth. In response, the Benguela Current Commission called for a spatial biodiversity assessment (BCC-SBA) to identify conservation priorities, including potential areas for marine protected areas. The systematic conservation-planning approach to this assessment requires a fine-scale map of coastal habitats, which was not previously available for the region. Our aim was to undertake this mapping, within tight logistic and resource limitations. We used a previously derived methodology for mapping the distribution of coastal habitats from aerial imagery. The Benguela coast is approximately 5,047 km long. Half of this extent is sandy beach, a third is rocky and mixed shores, 13 % comprises lagoonal features, and the remainder (4 %) comprises estuaries and offshore islands. The distribution and extent of these coastal habitats differs substantially alongshore (i. e. with latitude), with conditions ranging north-south from hot, humid mangrove-lined lagoons, to hyper-arid coastal desert sandy beaches. Patterns in regional geology, climate and oceanography are proposed as the main drivers of spatial heterogeneity in coastal habitat types. The resulting ecological and socio-economic wealth requires proactive protection (supported through the BCC-SBA, for example), to ensure sustainable utilization of the rich natural resources, and persistence of these resources for the benefit of current and future generations. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,143-154,,1,17,,J.

Because the area for conservation and resources for management are limited, both sites and actions need to be prioritized. Sandy beaches are poorly recognised as ecosystems, and thus are neither well managed nor regularly included in conservation initiatives, and are highly threatened. Therefore, we aim to refine an existing cumulative threat assessment (CTA) for beach ecosystems, the outputs of which can inform prioritization of beaches for conservation in reserves and/or various management objectives beyond reserves. We focus on the latter, using the CTA to derive a decision-support tool that aims to provide for use of sandy shores, whilst ensuring their ecological functioning is not compromised. The CTA depends on expert-based scores of threats to ecosystems; these were determined at the VIth International Sandy Beach Symposium (2012) for a baseline scenario under two criteria: functional impact and recovery time. Application of the CTA and decision-support tool is illustrated using the South African beaches. The baseline threat scores were adapted to suit the local context, and spatial trends in the cumulative impact of 15 threats were quantified. South African beaches are exposed to a broad range of cumulative pressure: overall it is relatively low, except where beaches are associated with areas of intensive coastal development. Based on the degree of permanent modification of the shore, and cumulative impact of all other stressors, the decision-support tool classifies beaches as: social-priority areas; ecological-priority areas; or social-ecological areas, each with specific management objectives. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,Dec-24,,,110,,Ocean Coast.

This begs the question, how much of which features need to be placed in protected areas? Setting specifically-derived conservation targets for most ecosystems is common practice; however, this has never been done for sandy beaches. The aims of this paper, therefore, are to propose a methodology for setting conservation targets for sandy beach ecosystems; and to pilot the proposed method using data describing biodiversity patterns and processes from microtidal beaches in South Africa. First, a classification scheme of valued features of beaches is constructed, including: biodiversity features; unique features; and important processes. Second, methodologies for setting targets for each feature under different data-availability scenarios are described. From this framework, targets are set for features characteristic of microtidal beaches in South Africa, as follows. 1) Targets for dune vegetation types were adopted from a previous assessment, and ranged 19-100%. 2) Targets for beach morphodynamic types (habitats) were set using species-area relationships (SARs). These SARs were derived from species richness data from 142 sampling events around the South African coast (extrapolated to total theoretical species richness estimates using previously-established species-accumulation curve relationships), plotted against the area of the beach (calculated from Google Earth imagery). The species-accumulation factor (z) was 0.22, suggesting a baseline habitat target of 27% is required to protect 75% of the species. This baseline target was modified by heuristic principles, based on habitat rarity and threat status, with final values ranging 27-40%. 3) Species targets were fixed at 20%, modified using heuristic principles based on endemism, threat status, and whether or not beaches play an important role in the species' life history, with targets ranging 20-100%. 4) Targets for processes and 5) important assemblages were set at 50%, following other studies. 6) Finally, a target for an outstanding feature (the Alexandria dunefield) was set at 80% because of its national, international and ecological importance. The greatest shortfall in the current target-setting process is in the lack of empirical models describing the key beach processes, from which robust ecological thresholds can be derived. As for many other studies, our results illustrate that the conservation target of 10% for coastal and marine systems proposed by the Convention on Biological Diversity is too low to conserve sandy beaches and their biota. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,45-57,,PA,150,,Estuar.

Delineating Ecologically or Biologically Significant Marine Areas (EBSAs) has been catalytic in progressing toward this aim. However, the Benguela Current Large Marine Ecosystem (BCLME; comprising three developing countries: Angola, Namibia, and South Africa) is one of few places where practical action to secure biodiversity in EBSAs has followed their description. We aim to document the process of moving from biodiversity priority areas to implemented conservation actions, and distil broadly applicable emerging lessons. EBSAs in the BCLME were reviewed using a systematic conservation planning approach, supplemented with expert input. In this data- and knowledge-driven process, the boundaries and descriptions of existing EBSAs were refined, and gaps filled with new EBSAs. The status of 29 EBSAs was assessed by determining the ecological condition, ecosystem threat status, and ecosystem protection level of constituent ecosystem types. Also, current human uses and their respective impacts were systematically reviewed per EBSA. Management recommendations were proposed by dividing EBSAs into zones with associated multi-sector sea-use guidelines. Throughout the process, facilitated by a regional cooperation project, there was stakeholder engagement, and national, regional, and international review. BCLME States are currently implementing enhanced EBSA management in their respective marine spatial planning and marine protected area processes, noting that there are different but valid outcomes for securing marine biodiversity in each country. Further, the regional approach allowed for cross-border alignment of priorities and management between countries, as well as pooled expertise, technical support, and capacity development. Although full implementation is still underway, the lessons to date highlight some key factors required for a successful process that could guide similar initiatives elsewhere.

Ecosystem-based Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) can support achieving this; however, because competition for ocean space is increasing, biodiversity prioritisation must be spatially efficient, conflict-averse, and robust to secure marine biodiversity appropriately. South Africa has a long history and real-world success in spatial planning on land; we aim to draw on this experience to develop an approach by which the biodiversity sector's input to MSP can be developed, in the context of MSP unfolding in South Africa. We used Marxan to develop the first National Coastal and Marine Map of Critical Biodiversity Areas (CBAs) and Ecological Support Areas (ESAs). There were 976 biodiversity features and design elements, and the cost layer aimed to avoid conflict with 19 sea-use sectors and avoid more heavily impacted areas. Biodiversity targets were met in 27.0% of the planning domain (5.4% Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), 21.6% CBAs), with 6.6% for ESAs. Sea-use guidelines were developed based on a matrix of activity compatibility with the management objective for CBAs (keep or restore to natural) and ESAs (avoid further degradation), with MPAs managed through their gazetted regulations. The CBA Map and sea-use guidelines formed the basis for the marine biodiversity sector plan for inclusion in MSP. This approach can be broadly applied, even with limited data, as the basis for multi-sector negotiations. We share seven recommendations from our experience to guide planners from other countries. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,230,,Ocean Coast.

These analyses generally require targets for input biodiversity features, which can be difficult to set quantitatively and defensibly. We aimed to develop a robust, heuristic approach for setting biodiversity targets for marine systematic conservation planning (SCP). From the literature, we distilled principles for increasing and decreasing a baseline biodiversity target, and identified recommended target amounts for the baseline targets and adjustments. These heuristic rules were tested in a systematic plan, run in Marxan, by using them to set targets for 976 marine biodiversity features from South Africa. Marxan outputs were compared with those from alternative scenarios that had: area-weighted targets (as an alternate heuristic); commonly used fixed targets of 10 %, 30 %, and 50 % (as planners align to Aichi Target 11, 30 x 30, and Nature Needs Half, respectively), and random targets. Both scenarios with heuristic targets (our heuristics, and areaweighted) passed the target sensitivity test and outperformed the scenarios with fixed targets in terms of feature representation for a given area and cost. This was better achieved using our heuristic targets, which had generally significantly higher feature representation in a more efficient design than all other scenarios. Our approach for systematically setting heuristic biodiversity targets can be widely applied, and although developed for marine planning, is expected to perform just as well for land-based planning. The rules and target amounts are not prescriptive but serve as a useful guide that can be adapted to other contexts.",,,,,285,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001063302600001,,,,,,,30 x 30; Biodiversity targets; Conservation targets; Marxan; MARXAN; NETWORK; OCEAN; PATTERN; PROTECTED AREA; SOCIOECONOMIC DATA; Systematic conservation planning; Target setting,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

While there have been significant advances in the development of policies to incorporate biodiversity issues in a company's activities, reliable and accessible data on the distribution of biodiversity and ecosystem services can be a major hindrance to a company's ability to implement and conform to such policies. The development of biodiversity tools for use by the private sector is therefore of high importance to facilitate this transition from policy to performance. Key to this development is the role of cross-sectoral partnerships between the environmental and business sectors that have proved to be mutually beneficial in achieving sustainable, environmentally sound and lucrative business practices. Proteus is a partnership between oil and gas, mining and technology companies and the UNEP World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC). Its goal is to make biodiversity and ecosystem information available to support decision-making. Proteus' most significant achievements have been the compilation of global biodiversity data and the development of tools to aid accessibility by a range of sectors, including business. These include the World Database on Protected Areas (WDPA) and the Integrated Biodiversity Assessment Tool (IBAT). Proteus was also instrumental in the compilation of critical coastal and marine ecosystem datasets, which asupport the marine extension of the Artificial Intelligence for Ecosystem Services (ARIES); a new web-based tool for ecosystem services assessment, planning, and valuation of areas that are needed in order to maintain the interconnections between ecosystems and ensure their full functionality. The development of new tools in the context of the partnership can help with sharing of expertise to build purposeful tools that address real world needs. Continued efforts to develop strong and productive partnerships, will enable further development of tools and information sources that can address the growing challenge of safeguarding the environment and the services that it provides for economic and social development alike. Understanding the internal and external, as well as the technical and institutional challenges and opportunities of the partnership provides a useful case-study to other organizations considering the development of online tools to address global socio-environmental challenges.

In order to attain this goal, information is needed about the distribution of life in the ocean so that spatial conservation measures such as marine protected areas (MPAs) can be designed to maximise protection within boundaries of acceptable dimensions. Ideally, a map would be produced that showed the distribution of benthic biodiversity to enable the efficient design of MPAs. The dilemma is that such maps do not exist for most areas and it is not possible at present to predict the spatial distribution of all marine life using the sparse biological information currently available. Knowledge of the geomorphology and biogeography of the seafloor has improved markedly over the past 10 years. Using multibeam sonar, the benthic ecology of submarine features such as fjords, sand banks, coral reefs, seamounts, canyons, mud volcanoes and spreading ridges has been revealed in unprecedented detail. This book provides a synthesis of seabed geomorphology and benthic habitats based on the most recent, up-to-date information. Introductory chapters explain the drivers that underpin the need for benthic habitat maps, including threats to ocean health, the habitat mapping approach based on principles of biogeography and benthic ecology and seabed (geomorphic) classification schemes. Case studies from around the world are then presented. They represent a range of seabed features where detailed bathymetric maps have been combined with seabed video and sampling to yield an integrated picture of the benthic communities that are associated with different types of benthic habitat. The final chapter examines critical knowledge gaps and future directions for benthic habitat mapping research.

The policy is being implemented through Regional Marine Plans (RMPs), including the development of a network of representative Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). The southeast region of Australia has been the first part of the EEZ to undergo regional marine planning (in 2003) and MPA development processes are currently in progress. Abiotic geoscience information has been used extensively to provide crucial supporting information to characterize habitats and bioregions in order to inform managers of the diversity of major ecosystems which may be represented in MPAs. In the southeast region, eleven ""BroadAreas Of Interest"" (BAOI) were first identified to help focus attention on areas that contain the greatest diversity of geomorphological features and where an MPA could contribute the most to biodiversity conservation objectives. These areas are then ""sampled"" to provide a candidate MPA that is comprehensive, adequate and representative of bioregions, features, habitats and linked systems across the shelf, slope and abyssal plain. Areas outside a BAOI may also be considered for sampling. The objective is to design an WA network that meets biodiversity conservation objectives while minimizing socio-economic impacts. For this reason, the specifications are applied through stakeholder consultation, supported by a scientific reference panel. So far, options for two candidate MPAs covering more than 40,000 square kilometres (the Murray and the Zeehan) have been identified. An interpreted map of 21 categories of different seafloor geomorphic features was developed as a proxy for habitats in the deep-water, continental slope and abyssal areas to support the selection of BAOI. Subsequent to the design of the eleven BAOI and the two candidate MPAs, the geomorphic feature map was extended onto the shelf. Also, on the continental shelf a ""seascape"" map was produced using multivariate analysis, incorporating environmental variables. Geographic Information System (GIS) analysis shows that the 11 BAOIs capture a representative subset of the geomorphic features and seascapes that occur within the southeast region. The two candidate MPAs represent a subset of key geomorphological features and bioregions found within the larger BAOI. The more recent information on seascapes now reveals that some of the seascapes were not sampled. Although the ecological significance of ""seascapes"" is still to be determined, they indicate a spatial heterogeneity in habitat types that may be of interest to MPA design. This experience has demonstrated that GIS analysis of abiotic data is a valuable and complementary tool for designing representative MPAs.",,463-482,,47,,,Spec. Pap. - Geol. Assoc.

The case studies covered areas of seafloor ranging from 0.2 to 500,000km2 (average of 16,670km2) and a broad range of geomorphic feature types. The mean depths of the study areas ranged from 1.5 to 8000m, with about half of the studies on the shelf (depth <120m) and half on the slope and at greater depths. Mapping resolution ranged from 0.01 to 1000m (mean of 45m). There is a skewed distribution of studies across the four naturalness categories with most habitats classed in the “very good” (n=20) and “good” (n=24) condition categories. Only eight studies classified their study area as being in a “poor” condition and none were classified as being in “very poor” condition. The majority of case studies (n=34) concluded that the condition was steady, eight case studies reported a declining condition, and only two case studies assessed the condition of their study area was improving. The confidence of the estimates for condition and trend were more evenly spread between high (n=15), medium (n=21), and low (n=10). Sediment grain size/composition was found to be the most useful surrogate for benthic communities in the most studies (n=13), followed by acoustic backscatter (n=11), water depth (n=10), slope (n=10), wave–current exposure (n=6), substrate type (n=6), seabed rugosity (n=6), and geomorphology/Topographic Position Index (n=6). A range of analytical methods were used to identify surrogates, with ARC GIS being by far the most popular method (27 out of 42 studies that specified a methodology). Of the many purposes for mapping benthic habitats, four stand out as being preeminent: (1) to support government spatial marine planning, management, and decision-making (n=30); (2) to support and underpin the design of marine protected areas (n=19) and fisheries reserves (n=10); (3) to conduct living and nonliving seabed resource assessments for economic and management purposes (n=16); and (4) to conduct scientific research programs aimed at generating knowledge of benthic ecosystems and seafloor geology (n=11). Out of 53 case studies habitat mapping was intended to be part of an ongoing monitoring program in 12 cases, whereas the mapping was considered to be a one-off exercise in 36 cases. However, out of the 36 one-off cases, the authors considered that their habitat map would form the baseline for monitoring future changes in 22 cases. This suggests that governments and regulators generally view habitat mapping as a useful means of measuring and monitoring change. In terms of the perceived clients and users of habitat maps, most authors considered marine conservation (n=39) and fisheries (n=21) to be the biggest users of habitat maps. This is consistent with the overwhelming majority of habitat surveys being funded by government or government-funded agencies/institutions (n=46) that are most likely responsible for implementing conservation policies, with only minor funding from private industry (n=2) or nongovernment organizations (n=3). A gap analysis (i.e., geomorphic features and habitats not included in the case studies) illustrates that whereas estuarine, shelf, and slope (canyon) habitats are well represented in the case studies, deep ocean (abyssal–hadal) environments were described in only a few case studies. Geographically, about two-thirds of the case studies were from waters around western Europe and North and South America, whilst the margins of the continents of Africa and Asia were not well represented in the case studies. Given the intense pressures facing benthic habitats and broad regional differences in ecosystems, species, and habitats, further research is needed in these geographic areas. © 2020 Elsevier Inc.

Given the lack of sufficient biological information to accomplish this task, we used a multivariate statistical method with 6 biophysical variables (depth, seabed slope, sediment thickness, primary production, bottom water dissolved oxygen and bottom temperature) to objectively classify the ocean floor into 53,713 separate polygons comprising 11 different categories, that we have termed ""seascapes"". A cross-check of the seascape classification was carried out by comparing the seascapes with existing maps of seafloor geomorphology and seabed sediment type and by GIS analysis of the number of separate polygons, polygon area and perimeter/area ratio. We conclude that seascapes, derived using a multivariate statistical approach, are biophysically meaningful subdivisions of the ocean floor and can be expected to contain different biological associations, in as much as different geomorphological units do the same. Less than 20% of some seascapes occur in the high seas while other seascapes are largely confined to the high seas, indicating specific types of environment whose protection and conservation will require international cooperation. Our study illustrates how the identification of potential sites for high seas marine protected areas can be accomplished by a simple GIS analysis of seafloor geomorphic and seascape classification maps. Using this approach, maps of seascape and geomorphic heterogeneity were generated in which heterogeneity hotspots identify themselves as MPA candidates. The use of computer-aided mapping tools removes subjectivity in the MPA design process and provides greater confidence to stakeholders that an unbiased result has been achieved.

We assessed the genetic structure amongst 2705 starfish collected from 13 coral reefs in four regions that spanned -1000 km of the GBR. Our results indicate that populations sampled across the full length of the GBR are genetically homogeneous (G'(ST) = -0.001; p = 0.948) with no apparent genetic structure between regions.

Despite hierarchical sampling and large numbers of CoTS genotyped from individual reefs and regions, limited genetic structure meant we were unable to determine a putative source population for the current outbreak of CoTS on the GBR.

Marine species, in particular, are experiencing accelerated population declines leading to many species being considered at risk by regional, national, and international standards. As one conservation approach, decisions made using spatially explicit information on marine wildlife populations have the potential to facilitate recovery and contribute to national and international commitments toward conservation targets. Delineating areas of intense use by species at risk can inform future marine spatial planning and conservation efforts, including the identification of marine protected areas. Methods for detecting hotspots (e.g., areas with high density and/or abundance) enable categorical mapping of the most intensely used areas. Yet, many of the current methods for delineating hotspots, such as the top 5% threshold, are subjective and fail to account for spatial patterns. Our goal was to map spatially continuous distributions of marine mammal densities and employ quantitative statistical methods to extract hotspot locations on the northern coast of British Columbia. We integrated systematically surveyed species information with environmental variables using generalized additive models to predict marine mammal distribution and density. Hotspots were identified from the density surfaces using two approaches: aspatial top 5% method and spatially local Gi statistic using three neighborhood definitions. Heterogeneous density patterns were observed for all species, and high-density regions were generally clustered in areas exhibiting oceanographic characteristics that may promote concentrated food resources. Combining species density surfaces and extracting hotspot locations identified regions important to multiple species and present candidate locations for future conservation efforts. Contributions from this research provide robust statistical methods to objectively map hotspot locations and generate GIS data products for informing coastal conservation decisions. © 2017 Harvey et al.",,,,7,8,,Ecosphere,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Ecological Society of America,,,,British Columbia; Canada; Cetaceans; Conservation prioritization; Hotspots; Marine conservation; Marine mammals; Pinnipeds; Predictive modeling; Species-habitat models.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Conservation planners are seeking effective ways to protect species, hotspots of biodiversity, and dynamic ecosystems to reduce and eventually eliminate the degradation and loss of diversity at the scale of genes, species, and ecosystems. While well-established, adequately enforced protected areas (PAs) increase the likelihood of preserving species and habitats, traditional placement methods are frequently inadequate in protecting biodiversity most at risk. Consequently, the Key Biodiversity Area (KBA) Partnership developed a set of science-based criteria and thresholds that iteratively identify sites where biodiversity is most in need of protection. KBA methodology has been rarely applied in the marine realm, where data are often extremely limited. We tested the feasibility of KBA population metrics in the Greater Caribbean marine region using occurrence and population data and threat statuses for 1669 marine vertebrates. These data identified areas where site-specific conservation measures can effectively protect biodiversity. Using KBA criteria pertaining to threatened and irreplaceable biodiversity, we identified 90 geographically unique potential KBAs, 34 outside and 56 within existing PAs. These provide starting points for local conservation managers to verify that KBA thresholds are met and to delineate site boundaries. Significant data gaps, such as population sizes, life history characteristics, and extent of habitats, prevent the full application of the KBA criteria to data-poor marine species. Increasing the rate and scope of marine sampling programs and digital availability of occurrence datasets will improve identification and delineation of KBAs in the marine environment. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,4039-4059,,13,30,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,Anthropocene; Atlantic Ocean; biodiversity; Caribbean Sea; COASTAL; conservation status; Conserving marine biodiversity; endangered species; EXTINCTION RISK; Geographically restricted species; IDENTIFICATION; identification key; Marine protected area networks; mass extinction; prioritization; PROTECTED AREAS; Targeted conservation; Threatened species; Vertebrata,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The purpose of the TNMPA is to conserve and protect the biological resources within the Mackenzie Estuary, ensuring viability of a healthy population of beluga whales. TNMPA regulations allow for the conduct of certain industry activities (e.g., dredging, transportation, and hydrocarbon exploration and production activity), as long as disturbance, damage, destruction or removal of belugas do not occur or are not expected. Our goal is to summarize baseline knowledge of the times, areas and patterns of aggregation of belugas in the TNMPA, to inform future monitoring, research and environmental assessments of any developments proposed for the TNMPA. Sightings of surfaced belugas in the Mackenzie River estuary made during seven summers of aerial surveys between 1977 and 1992 were examined using contemporary geospatial analytical methods. A total of 77 aerial surveys met the minimum criteria for inclusion: flown in their entirety, without interruption, under calm sea conditions, and with full visibility. The distribution of surfaced belugas was significantly clustered in three time periods (June 26-July 9, July 10-20, July 21-31) and in all sub areas of the TNMPA (Ripley's L, p<0.0001). Sighting rates varied by subarea and time period, with Niaqunnaq Bay having rates 3-4 times higher (p<0.0001) in the corresponding period, compared with West Mackenzie (WM), East Mackenzie (EM) and Kugmallit (KB) bays, in all but WM in late July. During early and mid-July of 1977-1985, belugas were aggregated in seven localized, recurrent geographic areas within the TNMPA, termed here as 'hot spots'. Results will foster more confident and informed decisions about the acceptability of proposed industry activities in the TNMPA, ensuring assessments are evidence-based and not unnecessary restrictive. © 2014 Published by Elsevier Ltd.",,128-138,,,100,,Ocean Coast.

At 2007 appointed as an MPA, the Raja Ampat marine area was perceived as having a good condition. However, 15 years later, there is a need to be reevaluated. This study aimed to evaluate its condition by the approach of Pressure State Response (PSR) analysis, based on collected secondary and primary data. The primary data was in the form of the community perception toward the influence of the MPA on fish resources, ecosystem, and socio-economic condition. This research used purposive sampling through questionnaires and interviews, with a percentage answer scale. Secondary data was collected from socio-cultural conditions. The results showed pressures in Raja Ampat MPA in the form of livelihood relying on capture fishery, low welfare of community, illegal fishing and other destructive activities, development of marine tourism, and the issue of planning on mining at sea. The state is that the marine area is in a fairly good condition, while the fishing cost, the total number of fishermen and boats, as well as the price of fish increased. The conditions of mangroves and coral reefs are good, the welfare increased, and the MPA is rated well. The fish existence has also increased and makes fishing activities easier. The response was establishing regulations at the level of village or regency to maintain the coastal ecosystems, fish resources and community welfare. Furthermore, the results of this study can be used as a baseline strategy to manage Raja Ampat MPA. © 2023, BIOFLUX SRL.

Constructive engagement between new developers, coastal communities, and fisheries will become increasingly necessary in order to minimize conflict and increase production. Marine spatial planning (MSP) is a technique used to make informed decisions about the sustainable use of marine resources. Offshore developers have begun to use MSP in order to achieve these goals of minimized conflicts, increased production, and greater sustainability. In this paper, an open-source MSP tool is developed to plan a favorable deployment location for a wave-powered aquaculture farm (WPAF) growing Atlantic salmon in the Northeast U.S. The MSP tool finds an optimal deployment location for the WPAF, while avoiding conflicts with existing or planned offshore activities, including recreational and commercial fisheries, military zones, offshore wind farms, shipping lanes, and marine protected areas. The planning objective is to find a deployment location where the total cost of weekly vessel travel to a WPAF and the cost of the wave energy converters (WECs) used to power the farm is minimized. In addition, this deployment location must meet the environmental needs of fish, have the required wave environment for sufficient wave energy production to supply the aquaculture farm, and avoid conflicts with the aforementioned industries. To solve this MSP optimization problem, we use a brute-force searching method through a coarse grid in the Northeast U.S. to find the optimal deployment location. The MSP tool is tested for multiple sizes of an Atlantic salmon offshore aquaculture farm: small (5 net pens), medium (12 net pens), and large (40 net pens), and the power needs of the farm are supplied by a two-body point-absorber WEC (the Department of Energy Reference Model 3). The optimal deployment location is found to be the same for all sized farms at 44.1°N and 67.9°W, about 35km off the Coast of Acadia National Park, since this location has the highest wave power density and hence minimizes the number of WECs needed to power each farm. © 2023 IEEE.",,,,,,,,,,,,,Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: OCEANS - Limerick, OCEANS Limerick",,,,Atlantic salmon; Conservation; Crowded space; Electric utilities; fisheries; Fisheries; Location; Marine biology; marine spatial planning; Marine Spatial Planning; offshore aquaculture; Offshore aquaculture; Offshore oil well production; Offshore waves; offshore wind farm; Offshore wind farms; Optimal deployment; Planning tools; Power; Sustainable development; Wave energy; Wave energy conversion; wave energy converter; Wave energy converters; Wave power,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"OCEANS 2023 - Limerick, OCEANS Limerick 2023",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

An N-load model linked to GIS thematic layers of known protected areas (Natura2000 sites and N-vulnerable groundwater aquifers) was utilised targeting high N-load areas to locate set-aside land. The achieved multi-functional benefits within the catchment and estuary were assessed and cost–benefit assessment was performed by dividing the total welfare costs of the set-aside by the total multi-functional benefits gained from each strategy.

Anthropogenic activities appear to be the major trigger of environmental changes, including land use and land cover (LULC) changes, while natural causes have only a minor impact in most cases. The Omayed Biosphere Reserve (OBR) stands as one of the Egyptian protected areas most highly affected by massive unplanned human activities. Thus, the main objective of this study is to determine the spatio-temporal changes in the OBR over a 35-year period using five Landsat (5 ETM images and 8 OLI-TIRS) imageries, with the specific aim of measuring change rates, trends, and magnitudes of LULC changes between 1984 and 2019 with the topography for planning and selection of developmental strategies. The Normalised Difference Vegetation Index is used to identify the vegetation characteristics of different eco-regions and delivers useful information for the study of vegetation health and density. Normalised Difference Built-up Index can likewise be used to quote built-up areas. Unsupervised classification was used to classify LULC patterns. Six classes were recognised: water bodies, coastal sand, urban areas, cultivated land, newly reclaimed areas, and bare soil. Our results reveal that about 33.55% of OBR land cover has transformed into other forms. Cultivated land and urban regions increased by about 143.5 km2 and 56.17 km2 from 1984 to 2019, respectively. Meanwhile, bare soil decreased to around 209.5 km2 in 2019. In conclusion, the conversion of bare soil into urban land and cultivated areas is the major change in the last 35 years in the OBR. Over the past three decades, the OBR has faced radical and imbalanced changes in its natural habitats. Therefore, monitoring and management of LULC changes are crucial for creating links between policy decisions, regulatory actions, and following LULC activities in the future, especially as many potential risks still exist in the remaining regions of the OBR. © 2020, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,42881-42897,,34,27,,Environ.

Australian Government established the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park under the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Act, 1975. The Act provides a legal regime for the protection of the natural and heritage values of the Reef. The Act incorporated spatial zoning and Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) to achieve the objective of ecologically sustainable use and management. The Act applies many principles including Ecosystem-Based Management (EBM) to achieve the objective. The current management mechanism under MSP has a significant achievement in the protection of the Reef region. However, there are many shortcomings of the Act to achieve the objective of ecologically sustainable use and management. Protection of ecosystem health, resilience, marine pollution and risk of climate change are the challenges that the Park faces. This paper analyses the shortcomings and achievements of the Act based on the Review Report, 2006, the Outlook Report 2009 and the Outlook Report 2014. The analysis explores that the overall performance of the Act is poor. Therefore, this research recommends for new management practice under a strategic action plan.

Well-designed ecological monitoring programs should accompany the implementation of NTMRs to assess their performance against stated objectives. However, monitoring programs often have limited funding and limited access to experienced (""expert"") underwater visual census (UVC) observers. Consequently, use of non-expert, volunteer observers to collect marine ecological data has increased. The need to assess the quality and utility of non-expert data has been acknowledged. Few studies have directly compared expert and non-expert assessments, and these are generally one-point-in-time comparisons. Here we assess the magnitude of NTMR:Non-reserve density ratios for target and non-target reef fish collected in five separate years over a decade (2000-2009) by expert and non-expert observers in the Palm Islands, Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Despite variations in methods and resultant differences in absolute fish density estimates, NTMR:Non-reserve density ratio estimates made by experts and non-experts usually differed by 10% or less. Furthermore, estimates of the statistical significance of reserve effects made by experts and non-experts had at least 80% agreement over the decade. The findings support the notion that UVC data collected by trained non-expert observers can provide reliable information on the magnitude of NTMR effects. © 2013 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.",,361-380,,4,41,,Coast.

Over the last century, increasing noise from human activities has significantly affected the quality of underwater acoustic habitats. These changes can lead to reduced ability to detect and interpret environmental cues used to perform critical life functions (e.g. select mates, find food, maintain group structure and relationships, avoid predators, navigate). The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), as the US federal agency with primary responsibility for protecting marine animals and their habitats, is developing an agency-wide strategy that emphasizes the ocean spaces that these animals need, and the importance of acoustic conditions in those places. This strategy seeks to reach beyond initial goals of reducing acute impacts due to noise (protecting hearing and reducing physical harm) to better account for the importance of underwater sound in marine ecosystems. This paper outlines science needs associated with acoustic habitat characterization and the assessment of noise impacts on habitats, which provide information critical to NOAA's prioritization of future place-based research and management. NOAA's spatial management tools are examined relative to acoustic habitat protection goals, which seek to match the ecological scales over which noise is impacting marine wildlife, including endangered species. Recommended actions are identified to address these broad spatial and long temporal scales, including international work on quieting technologies, registries of accumulated noisy events, and an enhanced role for NOAA's National Marine Sanctuaries in science, management, and outreach associated with acoustic habitat protection. © the Government of the United States 2016.",,171-186,,1,30,,Endanger.

This study used Marxan software to design candidate MPA networks to meet conservation targets for 67 coastal fish species on the east coast of South Africa. Species were selected for conservation importance, and included both resident and seasonal migrants. The distribution range of three phases of a species life cycle was generated using either cartographic habitat range models or maximum entropy models, and each used as a separate conservation feature. Two sets of conservation features were developed from this: A static set of 77 distribution models for features which ignored seasonal dynamics, and a seasonal set of 147 distribution models which included seasonal dynamics. Conservation targets depended on a species' extinction vulnerability and its seasonal abundance. Three scenarios were used to test the effects of incorporating seasonal spatial and abundance dynamics into MPA design: Scenario 1 tested the effect of using static or seasonal distribution data; Scenario 2 tested the additional effect of adjusting conservation targets based on seasonal variations in abundance; and Scenario 3 tested the additional effect of incorporating existing MPAs into the MPA network. In all three scenarios, the spatial configuration of MPA networks differed between the two datasets (Kappa 0.37, 0.25, 0.3), and static-designs did not fully meet targets for a number of species or critical life cycle phases of some species, however, larger and more expensive areas were required to design MPAs that could meet all conservation targets for seasonal features. Seasonal abundance adjusted targets was useful to elevate the prioritisation of seasonally abundant migratory species. Including existing MPAs did not change the differences observed between static and seasonal outcomes. We believe this will be true for any marine system that demonstrates seasonal spatial life-history differentiation and abundance dynamics, and advocate its use while giving due consideration to the increased cost associated with spatiotemporal planning. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,289-303,,,209,,Biol.

According to our data, the Comoro islands are inhabited by two amphibian species and at least 28 species of reptiles although ongoing genetic studies and unconfirmed historical records suggest an even higher species diversity. 14 of the 28 currently recognized species of terrestrial reptiles (50%) and the two amphibians are endemic to a single island or to the Comoro archipelago. Te majority of species are most abundant at low elevation. However, a few endemic species, like the gekkonid lizards Paroedura sanctijohannis and Phelsuma nigristriata, are more common in or even confined to higher altitudes. We created habitat maps from remotely sensed data in combination with detailed species distribution maps produced using comprehensive data from field surveys between 2000 and 2010, literature, and historical locality records based on specimens in zoological collections. Using these data, we assessed the conservation status of the endemic terrestrial reptiles and amphibians according to the IUCN Red List criteria. Our results show that although little area of natural forest remains on the Comoros, many species are abundant in degraded forest or plantations. Competition and predation by invasive species appears to be the most important threat factor for the endemic herpetofauna, together with habitat degradation and destruction, which further favors invasive species. We propose the status Endangered for three species, Vulnerable for one species, Near Treatened for six species, Least Concern for four and Data Deficient for two species. Te endemic subspecies Oplurus cuvieri comorensis is proposed for the status Critically Endangered. Based on the results of this study, seven areas of importance for reptile and amphibian conservation on the Comoros are identified.

The lakes have developed an important submerged and floating macrophyte flora, notably Charophyte communities - supporting large beds of Chara hispida, being one of the most important water bodies for this species in Wales. The lakes form part of a national nature reserve, managed by the Countryside Council for Wales in partnership with the National Trust. The lakes are designated a Natura 2000 Special Area of Conservation, largely on account of the EU Habitat: Hard oligo-mesotrophic waters with benthic vegetation of Chara spp./calcium-rich nutrient-poor lakes, lochs and pools, which they support (EU Habitat Code: 3140). The lakes have been well-studied over the last 30 years, including regular surveillance of the submerged macrophyte communities along a series of transects established across various parts of the lake system. This chapter looks at the survey history, and examines the development of surveillance techniques used to record changes in the frequency macrophyte species, and how these have helped develop a rationale for setting nature conservation objectives and associated condition indicators for monitoring the Chara community. Recent monitoring results are summarised and these are discussed in relation to various factors, including important nutrient (phosphate and nitrate) levels that influence the health of the Chara beds. © Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2010.",,277-290,,,,,,,,,,,Springer Netherlands,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Conserv.

Methods: An electronic medical records search was conducted for MBL deficiency and COVID-19 positive tests from March 2020-August 2022. Individualized chart analysis was conducted and statistical analysis was performed. Results: Thirty-three people in WVU medicine health system carry a diagnosis of mannose binding lectin deficiency and were diagnosed with COVID-19. The mean age of this cohort was 41 years. Seven individuals had severe enough symptoms to lead to an emergency department visit. One person was hospitalized. MBL deficient individuals had 7 times the odds of hospitalization (p =.1506, OR 7.06 (CI 1.117-44.52)) compared to the general public. There was zero mortality among the MBL deficient population. None of the patients reported thrombosis or blood clots. Conclusion: This retrospective cross-sectional analysis of those with known MBL deficiency and COVID-19 infection suggest a lower risk of fatalities and thrombotic events in this cohort.

Here we review the objectives of Australia’s Marine Park network, and identify the types of questions and data analysis that would address these objectives. Critically, we consider how the design of a monitoring program influences our ability to adequately answer these questions, using the strength of evidence hierarchy from the EBDM paradigm to assess the adequacy of different design strategies and other sources of information. It is important for conservation managers to recognize that the types of questions monitoring programs are able to answer depends on how they are designed and how the collected data are analyzed. The socio-political process that dictates where protected areas are placed typically excludes the strongest types of evidence, Random Controlled Trials (RCTs), for certain questions. Evidence bases that are stronger than ones commonly employed to date, however, could be used to provide a causal inference, including for those questions where RCTs are excluded, but only if appropriate designs such as cohort or case-control studies are used, and supported where relevant by appropriate sample frames. Randomized, spatially balanced sampling, together with careful selection of control sites, and more extensive use of propensity scores and structured elicitation of expert judgment, are also practical ways to improve the evidence base for answering the questions that underlie marine park objectives and motivate long-term monitoring programs. © Copyright © 2019 Hayes, Hosack, Lawrence, Hedge, Barrett, Przeslawski, Caley and Foster.",,,,,6,,Front.

The BIOT MPA consists of the atolls of the Chagos Archipelago, interspersed with and surrounded by deep oceanic waters. Islands around the atoll rims serve as nesting grounds for sea birds. Extensive and diverse shallow and mesophotic reef habitats provide essential habitat and feeding grounds for all marine life, and the absence of local human impacts may improve recovery after coral bleaching events. Census data have shown recent increases in the abundance of sea turtles, high numbers of nesting seabirds and high fish abundance, at least some of which is linked to the lack of recent harvesting. For example, across the archipelago the annual number of green turtle clutches (Chelonia mydas) is ~ 20,500 and increasing and the number of seabirds is ~ 1 million. Animal tracking studies have shown that some taxa breed and/or forage consistently within the MPA (e.g. some reef fishes, elasmobranchs and seabirds), suggesting the MPA has the potential to provide long-term protection. In contrast, post-nesting green turtles travel up to 4000 km to distant foraging sites, so the protected beaches in the Chagos Archipelago provide a nesting sanctuary for individuals that forage across an ocean basin and several geopolitical borders. Surveys using divers and underwater video systems show high habitat diversity and abundant marine life on all trophic levels. For example, coral cover can be as high as 40–50%. Ecological studies are shedding light on how remote ecosystems function, connect to each other and respond to climate-driven stressors compared to other locations that are more locally impacted. However, important threats to this MPA have been identified, particularly global heating events, and Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) fishing activity, which considerably impact both reef and pelagic fishes. © 2020, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,,,11,167,,Mar.

However, these methods have rarely been applied to species that rely on spatially disjunct habitats. We used the marbled murrelet, a seabird that requires old-growth forest in which to nest and high quality marine habitats in which to forage, as a case study to explore methods of incorporating multiple ecological values into single species spatial reserve design. Specifically, we used the cost function in MARXAN to include the ecological value of marine habitats while identifying spatial solutions for terrestrial nesting habitat reserves. Including marine values influenced terrestrial reserve designs most when terrestrial habitat targets were low and little or none of the target was represented in pre-existing protected areas. Our results suggest that including marine values in the planning process will influence marbled murrelet terrestrial reserve designs most where substantial terrestrial nesting habitat still exists, where new reserves are relatively unconstrained by pre-existing reserves, or when conservation resources only allow the protection of a small fraction of available habitat. This paper presents a novel framework for incorporating multiple measures of ecological value in the spatial reserve design process and should be particularly useful for species that rely on multiple habitats during their life cycle. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

Existing studies on ecological corridors have mainly focused on land, while marine ecosystems are characterised by extensive water connectivity and lack of visual landscape patches, making the study of marine ecological corridors a long-standing scientific challenge. In this study, the Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin (Sousa chinensis), a national level protected species in Xiamen Bay, was used as the target, and a method for identifying marine ecological corridors was developed based on the species distribution model and the least-cost path analysis. The study used a species distribution model to identify suitable habitat areas and nodes for Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins in the Xiamen Bay, and used the habitat suitability results of the model to generate a resistance surface in the ocean and simulate the least-cost path between nodes and nodes on the resistance surface, so as to generate a species dispersal network. The results showed that the distribution of Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins in Xiamen Bay was mainly influenced by three factors: channel distance, distance to shoreline, and chlorophyll concentration, while the main suitable habitats were located in the western waters to the mouth of Jiulong River and Dadeng waters. The potential core ecological corridor covered an area of 93.19 km2 and the secondary ecological corridor covered an area of 170.41 km2. The route along Jiulong River Estuary-south of Gulangyu Islet-Huangcuo-Dadeng Island and Xiaodeng Island may be the main migration route of Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins in Xiamen Bay. On this basis, the assessment of the disturbance of human activities on the corridor was carried out in terms of the overlapping of sea-use space and the impact of bridges. The assessment results indicate that tourism and shipping activities are likely to be the main sources of impacts on the Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin ecological corridor, with the core corridor being more influenced by tourism activities and the secondary corridor being more influenced by shipping activities.

Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding holds promise to address this monitoring challenge. We conducted paired sampling at 54 sites for fish and invertebrate assemblages in the Northwest Atlantic using groundfish trawls and eDNA metabarcoding of benthic seawater using four genetic markers (12S rRNA, 16S rRNA, 18S rRNA, and CO1). Compared to trawling, eDNA detected similar patterns of species turnover, larger estimates of gamma diversity, and smaller estimates of alpha diversity. A total of 63.6% (42/66) of fish species captured by trawling were detected by eDNA, along with an additional 26 species. Of the 24 missed detections by eDNA, 12 were inevitable as they lacked reference sequences. Excluding taxa assigned to higher than species level and those without a species name, 23.6% (17/72) of invertebrate species captured by trawling were detected by CO1, which detected an additional 98 species. We demonstrate that eDNA is capable of detecting patterns of community assemblage and species turnover in an offshore environment, emphasizing its strong potential for a non-invasive, comprehensive, and scalable tool for biodiversity monitoring supporting marine conservation programmes.  © 2023 His Majesty the King in Right of Canada, as represented by the Minister of Fisheries, Oceans, and the Canadian Coast Guard,.",,1529-1538,,5,80,,ICES J.

This paper applies a multi-criteria analysis approach to quantify stakeholder groups’ priorities for seawater desalination plants that have been proposed in communities adjacent to a National Marine Sanctuary. All groups placed the highest importance on minimizing environmental impacts on protected areas and endangered species that could be affected by water intake and brine discharge emphasizing the need for integrated land and sea conservation. Minimizing socio-economic impacts on coastal communities was much less important. Stakeholders also weighted reducing pressure on water levels in rivers, streams, and aquifers as more important than increasing water for residential consumption, which may foster coastal growth rather than replacing water taken from other sources. The study further revealed differences in the importance of multiple management objectives among stakeholder groups, which highlights the need to elicit distinct priorities of all groups to understand concerns and potential conflicts of desalination with existing marine users. The analysis of consistency ratios revealed that around half of all surveyed stakeholders had high inconsistencies in their responses, which suggests either a lack of understanding of desalination, or reflects the complexity of establishing desalination plants in coastal areas adjacent to a marine protected area. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,64-71,,,86,,Mar.

This paper examines the use of various types of Aquatic Protected Areas in the management of large lakes (e. g. Marine Protected Area equivalents, fish sanctuaries, parks). Potential and actual benefits and drawbacks, relative uses in current management strategies, purposes for which different types of areas have been created, and related trends are discussed. Very few true equivalents of Marine Protected Areas, that permanently protect both species and their habitats from exploitation and development, have been created in freshwater systems. Most protected areas within lakes exist as fish sanctuaries, which limit or prevent harvest of one or more species, and aquatic or terrestrial (shoreline) parks, which protect aquatic and riparian habitats by preventing development or resource extraction (e. g. logging or mining). Because many Aquatic Protected Areas are established in legislation the retirement of established areas is relatively difficult and the number of Aquatic Protected Areas is increasing. Although Aquatic Protected Areas have considerable potential for improving large lake management, it is essential that management goals are compatible with the function of Aquatic Protected Areas and that factors affecting their success are determined to facilitate efficient use of resources and political will.",,135-142,,2,13,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000278571700004,,,,,,,BENEFITS; COASTAL WETLANDS; CONSERVATION; ecosystem management; FISH HABITAT; fish management; GREAT-LAKES; INDEX; INVASION; marine protected area; MARINE RESERVES; precautionary principle; QUALITY; TROUT,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The vegetation of the CLWC has been severely reduced and fragmented, and is currently impacted on by agricultural, pastoral, coastal resort and urban development, as well as alien plant spread. Furthermore, most of the vegetation communities are under-represented within existing protected areas. In response to this urgent need for increased conservation efforts, an initiative to establish a UNESCO-MAB biosphere reserve in the area has been launched. The aim of this project was to use biological criteria to identify areas that could potentially contain the core areas and buffer zones of a biosphere reserve. A reserve selection algorithm was chosen which provides a flexible tool for selecting representative areas for protection. The algorithm is a step-wise heuristic, which has rules for including mandatory polygons, forcing adjacency, including desirable (e.g. Red Data Book plant species) and excluding undesirable features (e.g. bisection by major roads). Farm boundaries (cadastral units) were used as selection units, resulting in a total of 1 717 parcels. The selection process was conducted three times with target areas set at 10%, 25% and 50% of the original extent of each vegetation type within the study area. Areas of 62 834ha, 121 199 ha and 242 397 ha, respectively, or 36%, 49% and 76% of the available land in the study area being selected. It is recommended that the area identified as the 50% target area be considered the future site of core areas and buffer zones for the proposed biosphere reserve. The algorithm successfully maintained a high degree of connectivity between selected areas. This is important considering the high levels of plant beta diversity associated with edaphic gradients. Rather than presenting a definitive reserve system, this study provides a tool allowing biological criteria to be included explicitly within the negotiation process.

Given the environmental and socio-economic significance of coral reefs, understanding the links between human activities and coral health and evaluating the efficacy of marine protected areas (MPAs) as a management regime to prevent further deterioration are critically important. The aim of this study was to quantify indicators of coral health at sites inside and outside a newly rezoned MPA framework in the dive tourism hotspot of Koh Tao, Thailand. We found that patterns in the health and diversity of coral communities one year on did not reflect the protected status conferred by newly zoned MPAs, but instead reflected past history of recreational use around the island. Sites characterised as past high-use sites had lower mean percent cover of hard corals overall and of corals in the typically disease- and disturbance-susceptible family Acroporidae, but higher mean cover of species in the more weedy family Agariciidae. Past high use sites also had higher mean prevalence of infectious diseases and other indicators of compromised health. Sites within the newly established MPAs are currently subjected to higher levels of environmental and anthropogenic pressures, with sedimentation, algal overgrowth, feeding scars from Drupella snails, and breakage particularly prevalent compared to sites in non-MPA areas. Given the greater prevalence of these factors within protected sites, the capacity of the MPA framework to effectively prevent further deterioration of Koh Tao's reefs is unclear. Nevertheless, our study constitutes a strong baseline for future long-term evaluations of the potential of MPAs to maintain coral health and diversity on highly threatened reefs. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,56-65,,,103,,Mar.

Are methods based on the current spatial patterns of biodiversity effective given long-term climate change? Some conservation scientists argue that planning should focus on protecting the abiotic diversity in the landscape, which drives patterns of biological diversity, rather than focusing on the distribution of focal species, which shift in response to climate change. Climate is one important abiotic driver of biodiversity patterns, as different climates host different biological communities and genetic pools. We propose conservation networks that capture the full range of climatic diversity in a region will improve the resilience of biotic communities to climate change compared to networks that do not. In this study we used historical and future hydro-climate projections from the high resolution Basin Characterization Model to explore the utility of directly targeting climatic diversity in planning. Using the spatial planning tool, Marxan, we designed conservation networks to capture the diversity of climate types, at the regional and sub-regional scale, and compared them to networks we designed to capture the diversity of vegetation types. By focusing on the Conservation Lands Network (CLN) of the San Francisco Bay Area as a realworld case study, we compared the potential resilience of networks by examining two factors: the range of climate space captured, and climatic stability to 18 future climates, reflecting different emission scenarios and global climate models. We found that the climate-based network planned at the sub-regional scale captured a greater range of climate space and showed higher climatic stability than the vegetation and regional based-networks. At the same time, differences among network scenarios are small relative to the variance in climate stability across global climate models. Across different projected futures, topographically heterogeneous areas consistently show greater climate stability than homogenous areas. The analysis suggests that utilizing high-resolution climate and hydrological data in conservation planning improves the likely resilience of biodiversity to climate change. We used these analyses to suggest new conservation priorities for the San Francisco Bay Area. © 2015 Heller et al.",,,,4,6,,Ecosphere,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Ecological Society of America,,,,Abiotic diversity; Biodiversity; Climate adaptation; Climate change; Impact; MARXAN; Protected areas; Resilience; San francisco bay area; Systematic conservation planning; Terrestrial,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A new generation of small and affordable remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) can carry a stereo-video system to collect reef fish data without the need for divers. However, before ROVs are adopted there is a need to understand how they compare to other conventional survey methods. We compared how stereo-DOVs and stereo-ROVs influenced fish behaviour and sampled coral reef fish assemblages inside and outside sanctuary zones in the Ningaloo Marine Park, Northern Western Australia. In general, the numbers of species, individuals and the assemblage composition did not differ significantly between survey techniques and detected consistent patterns in the assemblage composition across locations and inside and outside sanctuary zones. Both methods recorded similar proportions of length measurements (68% and 70% for stereo-DOV and stereo-ROV respectively). Fishes were significantly more wary and exhibited more flight responses towards stereo-DOVs when compared to stereo-ROVs. The use of ROVs has the potential to be a cost-effective method of surveying reef fish while eliminating the health and safety risks involved with SCUBA diving. Given the comparable metrics as well as reduced behavioural bias and logistical advantages of using stereo-ROVs, we recommend stereo-ROVs as a viable alternative to stereo-DOVs surveys. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,281,,Estuar.

This study aims to investigate the characteristics, density, and distribution of marine debris in Bali's conservation areas. Surveys were conducted at 37 locations around TNBB and NPMPA, with approximately 94 % of the total samples consisting of plastic debris. Sampling effects related to substrate type, sea bottom gradient, and backshore type were significant and correlated with local debris load. Effects associated with land-based sources (such as population, distance to the nearest rivers, settlements, and tourist spots) were also significant. Statistical patterns suggest that illegal waste disposal is also an important driver. Understanding drivers of waste mismanagement, coupled with place-based approaches can help identify approaches likely to be successful in reducing plastic pollution in the environment. We suggest emphasizing citizen awareness, public policies, and their implementation as actions that can help prevent debris pollution in TNBB and NPMPA conservation areas, as well as in similar high-value areas around the world. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,197,,Mar.

This paper examines possible examples of wave power installations in the Baltic Sea and the Danish part of the North Sea. Hindcasting data is used allowing estimations of wave energy generated and results show promising areas in the North Sea, but also several parts of the Baltic Sea are of interest. The study is based upon linear generator technique, placed on the seabed using point-absorbers arranged in arrays of up to several thousand units. The study aims at showing the physical possibilities of wave energy, including economical feasibility and environmental advantages of wave energy even in moderate wave climates. With discussion from two examples in the Baltic Sea, one in the Danish North Sea and a new pilot study site in the Swedish part of Skagerrak, this study show feasible illustrations of wave energy takeouts. Project examples vary in size due to distance to grid, grid voltage, and may thus be economically feasible. Examples also show considerations in societal and nature conservation matters, including aspects such as industrial and military interests, archaeological or marine reserves and local geology. The authors conclude that wave energy electric conversion is an option that needs more attention and which has several advantages compared to conventional renewable sources.

The overlapping objectives and activities have caused severe conflicts among users and with the natural marine environment itself. For that reason, holistic strategies such as Ecosystem Based Management (EBM) and Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) have been evolved and developed to sustainably manage the marine environment, avoiding conflicts and creating synergies. Spatial analysis tools like Marxan have been used for several years as decision support tools mostly for conservation plans, such as design and establishment of protected areas. In this study we approach the potential of this tool with a different purpose in mind: instead of using the available information of the region for the development of a conservation plan, we used this tool and the available information to select areas to establish Aquaculture Management Areas (AMAs). We also intended to analyse how the existing features of the region would affect the final result of a spatial plan aimed to establish areas for economic and development purposes. We conclude that the use of Marxan can be advantageous to support the planning and development of coastal regions, not only in a conservationist point of view (as it has been mostly used), but also into a developing and economic driven approach. This tool can be particularly useful in regions or situations where there is a large number of stakeholders, ecological and geographical features that could potentially conflict with the establishment, the management and the success of the proposed management areas. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,90-97,,,141,,Ocean Coast.

Coastal lagoons are a Priority Habitat for conservation in Europe and protected in many regions, yet they are especially vulnerable to the potential impacts of climate change and specifically rising sea levels. As relatively small and closed environments, the risk of extinction of specialised benthic invertebrates and algal species is high and the rate of recolonisation of biota following disturbances may be low. Here we report on a variety of approaches and cases studies aimed at maintaining ecosystem resilience in Poole Harbour Special Protection Area (SPA) on the south coast of England by (i) creating new lagoon habitats (ii) restoring undesignated, degraded and polluted lagoons (iii) identifying and survey new coastal lagoon habitats. Although sea level rise presents considerable challenges for the conservation of these habitats, new managed realignment projects and set-back schemes offer significant opportunities for the creation of lagoons.

Location The study is focused on Poole Harbour, south England, the point of introduction of the Manila clam in the UK. Methods We use fine-resolution hydrodynamic models coupled with a water salinity model and an individual behaviour model of Manila clam larvae. The model was informed by experimental studies on the vertical response of larvae to salinity and field studies of the species in its natural and new environments. Results Variations in the behavioural response of larvae to salinity in the model considerably affected the retention of clam larvae within the harbour. High levels of predicted larval retention occurred in two of five zones in the harbour when the salinity target was set at 17 practical salinity units. Persistently high densities of adult clams and recruits are accurately predicted in these regions. Main conclusions Even within a relatively small region such as Poole Harbour, there is both localized retention of larvae or 'closed' areas and areas that are considerably more 'open' and potentially connected. The behavioural response of larvae to salinity significantly affected the degree of retention and 'openness' of the harbour to this species. Although, through natural transport, larvae could theoretically reach the next available habitat within the duration of their pelagic stage our study indicates that areas of sufficiently reduced salinity may be necessary for sufficient retention, recruitment and establishment of new adult populations in estuaries. High resolution hydrodynamic models, coupled with larval behaviour, can accurately simulate and predict biological invasion along complex coastlines and contribute to risk assessment of the introduction of non-indigenous species for aquaculture and spatial management of marine protection. © 2011 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,585-599,,3,39,,J.

This present study aimed to assess the current management strategies, challenges encountered, and possible solutions to combat IAPS in the Initao-Libertad Protected Landscape and Seascape (ILPLS) through Key Informant Interview (KII), employing both thematic analysis and Chi-Square Test for Homogeneity. The results revealed that prevention, monitoring and surveillance, and control, are the current strategies implemented in the area, wherein manual grabbing and pruning are practiced to control or eradicate IAPS. However, limited resources (40%), regulatory challenges (33.33%), lack of capacity (23.33%), and lack of awareness (10%) were the identified impediments that hinder progress. Furthermore, monitoring and surveillance (73.33%), control (46.67%), eradication (33.33%), prevention (33.33%), and information education and communication (IEC) (23.33%) were the effective management options perceived by the respondents in dealing with IAPS in the area. The Chi-Square Tests for Homogeneity indicated that park rangers, conservation officers, and Protected Area Management Board (PAMB) members exhibit similar distributions of responses regarding their awareness of the concept of IAPS, the prevalence of IAPS in the ILPLS, level of concern about the impact of IAPS, and the overall condition of ILPLS. However, a significant difference is observed in the awareness of the spread of IAPS in the ILPLS, with a chi-square statistic of 2.273, 2 degrees of freedom, and a P-value of 0.026. These findings provide the stakeholders with essential information to formulate effective communication and management strategies to control or eradicate IAPS in the area.

This sponge forms grounds that offer protection to pelagic organisms and juvenile stages. Despite its ecological relevance, there is a lack of information on the ecology, behavior and population structure of this species. The research aimed to conduct a multitemporal analysis of this sponge in the Aviles Canyon System over a ten-year period, focusing on spatial distribution and abundance. Changes in fishing pressure were estimated using the presence of fishing gears as a proxy. Additionally, the study sought to provide a detailed morphometric description through 3D photogrammetric reconstructions based on the latest data. The multi-temporal analysis revealed a subtle increase in sponge density, particularly at depths ranging from 320 to 390 m, exhibiting an irregular spatial distribution in 2022, with maximal values of 0.08 individuals/m2. Despite a small decrease on the loss of fishing gears in the overlapping area between samplings in 2012 and 2022, there was not a clear indication of a decline in fishing pressure over the years. Notably, more sightings of fishing gears were found in transect IC222TV_16 (0.07 gears/m2) than in IC222_TV02 (0.04 gears/m2) in 2022, suggesting potential spatial preferences for fishing activities. Visual analysis of temporal populations revealed an increase of 7% in specimen perturbations over ten years, with the population in IC222_TV16 being healthier (9% of the individuals presenting severe deformations) than in IC222_TV02 (40%). High-density fishing gear locations coincided with areas inhabited by sponges displaying the highest perturbation levels in both transects. Morphometric analysis using data from 2022 indicated a prevalence of individuals with heights concentrated between 0.18 and 0.38 m, osculum and flounce diameters reaching 0.4 and 0.56 m and osculum and flounce surfaces of 0.02–0.04 and 0.06–0.19 m2 respectively. Over 80% of measured specimens exhibited a high degree of asymmetry. Strong correlations were observed between heights and osculum and flounce surfaces, but external factors may be included for explaining wall deformities. These findings contribute valuable insights into the characterization of A. setubalense, serving as a foundation for future research in the area.

P. lividus exhibited significant variability in density over time on boulder bottoms but not on vertical walls, and temporal trends were not significantly different between the protection levels. Differences in densities were caused primarily by variance in recruitment, which was less pronounced inside the MPA and was correlated with adult density, indicating density-dependent recruitment under high predation pressure, as well as some positive feedback mechanisms that may facilitate higher urchin abundances despite higher predator abundance. Populations within the reserve were less variable in abundance and did not exhibit the hyper-abundances observed outside the reserve, suggesting that predation effects maybe more subtle than simply lowering the numbers of urchins in reserves. A. lixula densities were an order of magnitude lower than P. lividus densities and varied within sites and over time on boulder bottoms but did not differ between protection levels. In December 2008, an exceptionally violent storm reduced sea urchin densities drastically (by 50% to 80%) on boulder substrates, resulting in the lowest values observed over the entire study period, which remained at that level for at least two years (up to the present). Our results also showed great variability in the biological and physical processes acting at different temporal scales.

Urgent action is, therefore, needed to reverse this trend. Effective conservation must rely on careful planning and strategic investment of limited resources to maximise efficiency of conservation efforts. Here, we carry out a gap analysis to identify pressures and threats with no reported management action over the period 2013–2018 and identify priorities to close this gap. We use information from the State of Nature report to identify combinations of species/habitats × pressures/threats affecting them with no management action reported. We finally prioritise the selection of pressures and threats to be addressed for all species and habitats collectively. We found that 2/3 of all combinations of species/habitat × pressure/threat did not have management actions reported. Management gaps were especially large for birds, amphibians and reptiles and marine bioregions in northern EU. This management gap affects 98 % of Natura 2000 sites, with at least one species/habitat with no management action reported for one or more pressures/threats. The spatial prioritisation analyses showed that all species and habitats could benefit collectively from a reduction in 30 % of pressures/threats incidence by targeting a small proportion of pressures/threats and Natura 2000 sites. The prioritisation approach that we demonstrate here could be valuable to plan investment to close the current management gap and inform conservation across the EU. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,272,,Biol.

Future biodiversity conservation would benefit from an extended and better-managed network of PAs, additional novel funding opportunities, including the private sector, and enhanced co-governance.

The aim of this study was to characterize the floristic composition, richness, diversity, structure and regeneration of a seasonally dry tropical forest landscape constituted by mature forest, secondary forest and seasonally inundated forest located in the Northeastern part of the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico. We used the Gentry's standard inventory plot methodology (0.1 ha per forest type in 2007) for facilitating comparison with other Mesoamerican seasonally dry tropical forests. A total of 77 species belonging to 32 families were observed in the study area. Fabaceae and Euphorbiaceae were the families with the largest taxonomic richness in the three forest types. Low levels of ? diversity were observed among forest types (0.19-0.40), suggesting a high turnover of species at landscape level. The non-regenerative species were dominant (50-51 %), followed by regenerative species (30-28 %), and colonizer species (14-21 %) in the three forest types. Zoochory was the most common dispersal type in the study area. The 88 % of the observed species in the study area were distributed in Central America. Some floristic attributes of the seasonally dry tropical forest of the Yucatan Peninsula, fall into the values reported for Mesoamerican seasonally dry tropical forests. Natural disturbances contributed to explain the high number of individuals, the low number of liana species, as well as the low values of basal area observed in this study. Our results suggested that the seasonally dry tropical forest of Yucatan Peninsula seems to be resilient to natural disturbances (hurricane) in terms of the observed number of species and families, when compared with the reported values in Mesoamerican seasonally dry tropical forests. Nonetheless, the recovery and regeneration of vegetation in long-term depends on animal-dispersed species. This study highlights the importance of establishing multiple protected areas throughout the Mesoamerican seasonally dry tropical forest in order to conserve both ?- and ?- diversity. © 2015, Universidad de Costa Rica.

The aim of this research was to characterize the phenology of Bursera simaruba Jacq. ex L and Bursera tomentosa (Jacq.) Triana & Planch and to evaluate their relationship with environmental variables. The phenological study was realized in a protected area with tropical dry forest of the Central Depresion from Chiapas. Fifty adult trees of each specie were selected and the intensity of four reproductive phenophases (flower bud, open flower, fruit development and permanence of fruits) and three vegetative ones (leaf bud, mature leaves, senescence) were recorded using the Fournier method. Seasonality and synchrony in each phase were estimated by circular statistics calculating the mean vector (r) and the Rayleight test (Z). Also, the functional types of vegetative phenology were categorized and that of reproductive phenology. All the phenological stages were seasonal (r> 0.5), in both species, the flowering and leaf bud phenophases occurred in a short period while the vegetative and fruit production phenophases are the more extended stages. The reproductive and vegetative phenology of Bursera simaruba and B. tomentosa were very similar, and the most correlated environmental variables with them (rs ? 0.6) were temperature and humidity. These results allow to know the phenological dynamic of Bursera species in the TDF, and with this, to promote management and conservation strategies of these important species. © 2021, Instituto de Ecologia, A.C..

Based on this fact, this study pays attention to the spatial distribution pattern of cetacean species and the conservation role of the Natura 2000 Network, a set of Special Areas of Conservation (SACs), which were defined mainly based on data compiled in 1996, under the framework of the European Habitats Directive. In recent years, the declaration of conservation areas for cetaceans between the Tenerife—La Gomera Islands by two global conservation programs, Mission Blue (“Hope Spots”) and Whale Heritage Site (“Whale Sanctuary”) sent clear signals of scientific and social interest to promote better protection of the cetacean species in the Canary Islands. The main aim of the designated SACs is the conservation of its biological and ecological diversity, ensuring the long-term survival of the target species in the waters around islands. In this case, the enactment of the SACs was based only on the sparse data available for the common bottlenose dolphin, Tursiops truncatus. This study shows that the spatial distribution of cetaceans in the Canary archipelago generated from a large database of cetacean sightings, from 2007 to 2018. The results obtained show the main marine areas where the different cetacean species are distributed around the different islands of the archipelago. The spatial distribution maps of the cetacean species, when compared with the existing SACs of the Natura 2000, show the need to extend these SACs into the open sea to include more cetacean species and a larger number of individuals for better conservation of the endangered marine mammals. As a consequence, some suggestions were proposed to improve and update the role of SACs in European Northeast Atlantic waters as a key environmental tool for cetacean conservation. The data supporting the recent declarations of these two new milestones the “Hope Spot” and the “Whale Sanctuary” enhance more keystone information to promote a large marine protected area in the Eastern Atlantic Ocean, such as the “Macaronesian Biodiversity and Ecological Migration Corridor for Cetaceans,” a conservation figure that has been already proposed in the scientific literature as a deserving candidate of governmental regulations and policies by Portugal and Spain; it would also require joint cross-border cooperation efforts for marine spatial planning. © Copyright © 2021 Herrera, Carrillo, Cosme de Esteban and Haroun.",,,,,8,,Front.

This issue is particularly challenging to understand in complex landscapes, where many biophysical and anthropic drivers interact without the necessary land regulatory guidance. We combined kernel density analysis and machine learning modeling to unravel the spatial patterns of land subdivisions and the complex relationships between their drivers. We used the Los Lagos region in southern Chile as a study case because it is a global biodiversity hotspot where land subdivisions are constantly increasing. We identify a significant increasing trend of subdivisions. Our modeling approach showed robust performance with an R2 of 0.727, RMSE of 5.109, and a bias of ?0.009. The proximity to urban areas, to the coast, distance to electric mains, demographic structure, and proximity to protected areas were significant predictors of land subdivision. Fertile lands, particularly those near urban centers, have become prime targets for subdivisions, exacerbating the conflict between urban development and agricultural sustainability. We highlight the increasing number of subdivisions on threatened ecosystems and highly productive soils. We discuss the interrelationship between the drivers and conclude that subdivision is primarily associated with conventional urban sprawl, although other urbanization phenomena could also be observed in some areas. These findings provide challenges and opportunities for global spatial planning and harmony with biodiversity conservation. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,249,,Landsc.

Soil composition has an important role in biodiversity conservation since the Caatinga suffers from degradation, salinisation and desertification, mainly caused by non-sustainable agriculture and urbanisation. To identify priority areas for Caatinga preservation, it is necessary to know the nutrient content of the soil and other chemical elements, with information from a consistent and reliable database. The present work aimed at the quantification of Al, Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Si, Sr, Ti and Zn. All chemical elements were determined by Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence–EDXRF. Multivariate statistical techniques applied to soil identified the correlation between the chemical elements determined in diverse Caatinga soil types. Multivariate analysis when combined with the accumulation index indicates soils where the use of conservation units could be recommended.

However, even with similar management techniques, there have been concerning declines in vegetation observed across the last few decades. This study proposes that a larger driver, climate, is linked to this decline over time, and raises the point that these conservation areas are more important now than ever. Precipitation (annual and seasonal), the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI, indicator of vegetation health), and Directional Persistence data (D, metric to measure trends in vegetation health over time compared to a baseline value) from 2000 to 2020 are used. Overall, there was a negative trend in precipitation during the 21st century in all seasons except the beginning of the wet season. Linked to this were negative trends in vegetation health both in absolute Normalized Difference Vegetation Index values and resultant D values. Overall, this study found a decline in precipitation, which was significantly linked to a decline in vegetation health across the majority of the year in the Greater Limpopo Transfrontier Conservation Area. This study supports literature on browning in sub-Saharan Africa and gives managers even more reason to work together towards a unified conservation strategy for this important region.

Based on information obtained from the literature, catch logs, official reports from fisheries authorities, and unpublished data, we tested the effect of exploitation patterns through simulation scenarios to determine which species exemplify the conditions for long-term sustainable exploitation. Data included population monitoring, fishery assessments and effort, bioeconomics, biological aspects, population dynamics, conservation, and management regulations. The results showed that all species are highly sensitive to fishing mortality (F) levels. When F and effort (number of boats or fishers) increased, biomass and cost-benefit ratio showed a sharp decline, with the fishery becoming nonprofitable and unsustainable in only a few years. This was strongly related to life-history traits, which make holothuroids vulnerable to overfishing and recovery. Other aspects involved differences in economic benefits between exporters, stakeholders, and fishers, the latter sometimes turning to illegal activities due to the low income they receive. Also, the lack of experience of authorities regarding fisheries analysis and management sometimes favored an unwanted increase in licenses and boats, contributing to the collapse of the fishery in many localities on both sides (Pacific and Atlantic) of the country. Moreover, climate change scenarios should be considered when providing licenses, as many species may be sensitive to fluctuating environmental factors. In conclusion, it is improbable that Mexican sea cucumber fisheries will attain sustainability under the current exploitation parameters. We recommend continuing the efforts in aquaculture, restocking some areas, and generating additional scientific data. Strict control of licenses and effort levels, maintenance of quotas based on population monitoring, enforcement of the minimum catch size, reproductive-period bans (no catch during the reproductive period), and no-take zones seem essential. If those were to be fulfilled, sustainability might still be possible. © 2024 Elsevier Inc.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are effective spatial conservation tools for reducing anthropogenic pressures on threatened species but their benefits for megafauna are still debated. While the effects of MPAs on species abundances are widely reported, few studies have simultaneously investigated the confounding effect of habitat. This study aimed at disentangling the effects of coral reef habitat and spatial protection on megafauna densities in a shallow lagoon partly covered by a no-take MPA in New Caledonia (South-west Pacific). Twenty replicates of aerial-video surveys (representing 17 h of videos) were conducted during a 5-month period to estimate and map the densities of five megafauna taxa (dugongs, sea turtles, sharks, Dasyatidae rays and Myliobatidae rays). A permutational multivariate analysis of variance was then applied to assess and disentangle the effects of coral reef habitat obtained from high-resolution satellite imagery and spatial protection on megafauna taxa densities. The analysis revealed a significant effect of protection for sharks and Myliobatidae, with observed densities respectively 9 and 3 times higher inside the MPA compared with outside. The results also highlighted a significant combined effect of habitat and protection for dugongs and Dasyatidae, as well as a significant effect of habitat alone for Dasyatidae. In contrast, no significant effect of habitat or protection was detected for sea turtles. In conclusion, this study revealed positive effects of protection (alone or combined with habitat) for four of the five studied megafauna taxa, confirming the effectiveness of the current MPA. Future studies should be conducted over broader spatial and temporal scales to examine whether detected effects hold beyond the surveyed period and area. © 2023 The Authors.

In the Cape Floristic Region, a hot-spot of plant biodiversity and endemism, past conservation interventions have led to the mountains being over-represented in the reserve network, while the lowlands have remained very poorly conserved. Ongoing threats to the lowlands such as the rampant spread of invasive alien plants, and land transformation for agriculture and resort development, continue to undermine biodiversity in these regions. A new conservation intervention, the Agulhas National Park, is in the process of being implemented on the coastal lowlands at Africa's southernmost tip. A flexible, reserve-selection design tool is being used to guide this process. The practical challenges in implementing a new protected area in a fragmented landscape, which has a high biodiversity and vulnerability, are examined. The role of different institutions, in particin particular state-private partnerships, and current investigations into conservation agencies' policies, legislation and funding mechanisms are dealt with. It is imperative that future conservation planning considers the threats to biodiversity first and foremost.

Efficacy of MPAs is frequently gauged by measuring the direct ecological responses of fish communities. However measuring the indirect, or knock-on effects from protection can provide additional insight into MPA effectiveness at the community level. Here we applied trait-based and community analyses to investigate MPA effectiveness by evaluating both direct and indirect effects of protection on fish assemblages using baited remote underwater stereo-video data from inside and outside 5 no-take MPAs along the South African coastline. The trait-based analyses indicated the presence of a significant overall direct effect (increased abundance of mature individuals targeted by fisheries) and indirect effects (reduction of the abundance of species not targeted by fisheries) inside MPAs, and highlighted that fish maturity is an essential trait to incorporate when assessing direct effects of protection. However, investigation of the species data of the individual MPAs showed positive reserve effects at the community level (both direct and indirect effects) in only 3 MPAs. For the most part these results conform with current theories on the factors that contribute to MPA effectiveness. Yet, one old, large and isolated no-take MPA showed no direct effects of protection, which is attributed to the lack of adequate offshore reef habitat throughout this MPA. While these results support the value of MPAs as ecosystem management tools, they highlight the need for appropriate site selection when designing MPAs. © The authors 2019.",,99-117,,,620,,Mar. Ecol.

However, the distribution of biodiversity is spatially asymmetric among regions and lineages, and the extent to which PAs offer effective protection for species and ecosystems remains uncertain. Penguins, regarded as prime bioindicator birds of the ecological health of their terrestrial and marine habitats, represent priority targets for such quantitative assessments. Of the world’s 18 penguin species, eleven are undergoing population declines, for which ten are classified as ‘Vulnerable’ or ‘Endangered’. Here, we employ a global-scale dataset to quantify the extent to which their terrestrial breeding areas are currently protected by PAs. Using quantitative methods for spatial ecology, we compare the global distribution of penguin colonies, including range and population size analyses, with the distribution of terrestrial PAs classified by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, and generate hotspot and endemism maps worldwide. Our assessment quantitatively reveals < 40% of the terrestrial range of eleven penguin species is currently protected, and that range size is the significant factor in determining PA protection. We also show that there are seven global hotspots of penguin biodiversity where four or five penguin species breed. We suggest that future penguin conservation initiatives should be implemented based on more comprehensive, quantitative assessments of the multi-dimensional interactions between areas and species to further the effectiveness of PA networks. © 2019, Springer Nature B.V.",,2861-2876,,11,28,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Netherlands,,,,action plan; Aves; biodiversity; Biodiversity hotspots; bioindicator; conservation management; endangered species; geographical distribution; global perspective; IUCN; macroecology; Macroecology; Penguins; population decline; prioritization; protected area; Protected areas; range size; Red List; seabird; species richness; Species richness; Spheniscidae; terrestrial ecosystem; vulnerability,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Outside of legal protection, only areas inaccessible to trawlers are offered any protection. Shipwrecks present hazards to fishing gear and are rarely subject to trawling pressure. As many have been in situ for >100 years, they offer a baseline of ecological potential when trawling pressure is reduced or removed. Five shipwrecks were surveyed off the Berwickshire coast, some within the Static Gear Reserve and others outside. Video transects were collected of shipwrecks, the surrounding 50 m radius and control locations >150 m from the wreck site. Species identified were assigned a category based on their vulnerability to trawling. The effect of distance from a shipwreck on ecological communities within sites Open and Closed to trawling was investigated. The ecological importance of shipwrecks increased relative to trawling pressure. In Open sites, abundance was 340% greater on Wreck locations than Control. Conversely, within Closed sites, abundance was 149% greater in Control locations than Wreck. In Open sites, shipwreck communities are more similar to those in Closed sites, than to the habitat surrounding the shipwreck. Vulnerable species, mostly large, sessile filter feeders, are almost entirely absent from Open sites, but account for ~28% of the total abundance on shipwrecks in Closed sites. This study offers a quantifiable method to evaluate the ecological contribution of shipwrecks in disturbed areas and suggests their role may warrant further research, and consideration in conservation policy, such as inclusion in 30 × 30 objectives.

Methods for assessing the effects on target stocks are generally well developed, but methods for assessing the effects on other components and attributes of the ecosystem are not. Area closures and effort controls are widely used fishery management tools that affect the distribution of fishing effort and may therefore have consequences for a range of species and habitats. An approach is developed to predict the effects of area closures and effort control on the biomass, production, and species richness of benthic communities in the North Sea. The redistribution of beam trawling effort as a result of management action was modelled with a random utility model, assuming that fishers selected fishing grounds on the basis of their knowledge of past catch rates. The effects of trawling on benthic invertebrates were predicted using a size-based model that accounted for differences in habitat among fishing grounds. Our simulations demonstrated that closures of different sizes and in different locations could have positive or negative effects on benthic communities. These predicted effects resulted from the trade-off between recovery in the closed areas and additional trawling effects in the open areas that arose from displaced fishing activity. In the absence of effort controls, closure of lightly fished areas had the strongest positive effect on benthic communities. Effort reduction also had a positive effect. Therefore, area closures in lightly fished areas, coupled with effort reduction, are expected to minimize the effects of fishing on benthic communities. As it was not possible to access full international data for the North Sea beam trawl fleet, the results of the analyses are illustrative rather than complete. Nevertheless, what is demonstrated is an effective approach for assessing the environmental consequences of fishery management action that can be used to inform management decision-making as part of an EAF. © 2006 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.",,822-830,,5,63,,ICES J.

Increasingly, reserves are established to protect multiple species and communities, each with their own conservation goals and objectives. As resources are always inadequate to monitor all components, criteria must be applied to prioritize both species and communities for monitoring and management. While methods for prioritizing species based on endangerment or risk have been established, approaches to prioritizing ecological communities for monitoring are not well developed, despite a long-standing emphasis on communities as target elements in reserve design. We established guidelines based on four criteria derived from basic principles of conservation and landscape ecology-extent, representativeness, fragmentation, and endangerment-to prioritize communities in the San Diego Multiple Species Conservation Plan (MSCP). The MSCP was one of the first multiple-species habitat conservation areas established in California, USA, and it has a complex spatial configuration because of the patterns of surrounding land use, which are largely urbanized. In this case study, high priority communities for monitoring include coastal sage scrub (high endangerment, underrepresented within the reserve relative to the region, and moderately fragmented), freshwater wetlands, and coastal habitats (both have high fragmentation, moderate endangerment and representativeness, and low areal extent). This framework may be useful to other conservation planners and land managers for prioritizing the most significant and at-risk communities for monitoring. © 2008 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,165-179,,1,42,,Environ.

Additional reef habitats made from conventional substrates (e.g., metal, concrete, etc.) have had limited success in addressing conservation objectives on degraded coral reefs due to structure size and lack of standardized monitoring, and inability to enhance select ecological, and species variables. Technological advances and new restoration methods must be quickly tested and applied on a large scale to curb further deterioration of coral reefs. Here, we present the results of the first deployment of Oceanite artificial reefs (ARs). We compare the composition of the benthic community and associated fish assemblages on Oceanite ARs 14 months after deployment in a marine protected area (MPA) and two unprotected sites in Philipsburg, Sint Maarten. We also examined fish abundance and behaviour on the ARs. The initial results from this pilot study suggest that Oceanite mineral matrices can enhance local biodiversity, attract coral recruits, provide food and protection for large fish communities, and develop an early stage, healthy coral reef community in 14 months. We suggest that further research and testing of Oceanite capabilities will allow us to develop site-, species-, and function-specific nanotechnology-enabled substrates to optimize AR conservation goals. Oceanite mix designs can be tuned to precise parameters to promote reef restoration and stressor mitigation (e.g., pH, leachate emissions, surface texture, porosity, void structure, and hydrophobic, heat-absorbing, and disease-fighting properties). Using both bottom-up and top-down restoration processes, we suggest that deploying bio-enhancing habitats with targeted microclimate stressor treatments on the world’s critical reefs will allow to build global refuges resilient to climate change and provide much needed ecosystem services. © 2024 PeerJ Inc..

The implementation of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) has become a cornerstone in addressing these impacts. The formulation of the Aichi Target (AT) 11 has acknowledged the benefits of MPAs as a vital approach to achieve marine conservation targets. In the AT 11, reference to the term “equitably managed” has demonstrated the importance of equity in the planning and management of MPAs and in this paper, a description of how equity should be considered from the inception stage is detailed. Two case studies, one in Japan and the other in the Solomon Islands, were chosen because they include equity considerations from the inception and were successful in reaching their conservation targets. Through these two case studies, it is demonstrated that understanding the objectives and expectations of all stakeholders can help achieve the qualitative goals of the AT 11. This is particularly true for local and indigenous communities in Small Island Developing States (SIDS) and coastal communities in developing countries. Finally, a set of recommendations has been provided to address possible limitations that could arise during the MPA design exercise.

Monitoring is a key requirement to determine if MPAs are meeting their objectives. However, many recently declared MPA's are large, offshore, or form part of an expansive network and spatial information about the habitats, communities and species that they contain is often lacking. This presents challenges for deciding exactly what to monitor and developing strategies on how to monitor it efficiently. Here we examine these issues using the Flinders Marine Park in Australia as a case study. We trial a two-stage version of a spatially-balanced, probabilistic sampling design combined with Baited Remote Underwater Videos (BRUVs) to perform an initial inventory, and we evaluate the potential of six commercially and ecologically important demersal fish as indicators within the Marine Park. Using this approach we were able to (1) quantitatively describe the distribution of the fish species in the Marine Park; (2) establish quantitative and representative estimates of their abundance throughout the Marine Park to serve as a baseline for future monitoring; (3) conduct power analyses to estimate the magnitude of increase we may be able to detect with feasible levels of sampling effort. Power analysis suggested that for most of our potential indicator species, detecting increases in abundance as small as 50% from present values should be feasible if sampling is restricted to a species’ preferred habitat and the same sites are sampled through time. Our approach is transferrable to other regions where monitoring programs must be designed based on limited spatial and biological data, assisting with decisions on what and how to monitor. © 2018",,610-621,,,89,,Ecol.

Integral to this assessment is usually a long-term biological monitoring program, which can be difficult to develop for large and remote areas that have little available fine-scale habitat and biological data. This is the situation for many MPAs within the newly declared Australian Commonwealth Marine Reserve (CMR) network which covers approximately 3.1 million km2 of continental shelf, slope, and abyssal habitat, much of which is remote and difficult to access. A detailed inventory of the species, types of assemblages present and their spatial distribution within individual MPAs is required prior to developing monitoring programs to measure the impact of management strategies. Here we use a spatially-balanced survey design and non-extractive baited video observations to quantitatively document the fish assemblages within the continental shelf area (a multiple use zone, IUCN VI) of the Flinders Marine Reserve, within the Southeast marine region. We identified distinct demersal fish assemblages, quantified assemblage relationships with environmental gradients (primarily depth and habitat type), and described their spatial distribution across a variety of reef and sediment habitats. Baited videos recorded a range of species from multiple trophic levels, including species of commercial and recreational interest. The majority of species, whilst found commonly along the southern or south-eastern coasts of Australia, are endemic to Australia, highlighting the global significance of this region. Species richness was greater on habitats containing some reef and declined with increasing depth. The trophic breath of species in assemblages was also greater in shallow waters. We discuss the utility of our approach for establishing inventories when little prior knowledge is available and how such an approach may inform future monitoring efforts within the CMR network. © 2014 Hill et al.",,,,10,9,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,animal; Animals; Aquatic Organisms; aquatic species; Article; Australia; biological monitoring; Conservation of Natural Resources; continental shelf; controlled study; ecosystem; Ecosystem; environmental impact assessment; environmental monitoring; Environmental Monitoring; environmental protection; fish; fish assemblage; Fishes; home range; marine environment; marine protected area; nonhuman; Oceans and Seas; population abundance; quantitative analysis; sea; sediment; spatial analysis; Spatial Analysis; species distribution; species diversity; species habitat; species richness; trophic level; videorecording,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Here, we use a recently developed approach called Regions of Common Profile (RCP) to quantify and map the distribution of demersal fish assemblages in an ecologically significant region of the Southern Ocean to (1) gain ecological and management insights and (2) evaluate the utility of the new method for ecoregionalization. Location: Northern Kerguelen Plateau, Subantarctic Islands, Southern Ocean. Methods: The RCP approach is a multispecies, model-based approach that can overcome many limitations of traditional distance-based approaches. It simultaneously groups sites with a similar composition of species and describes the patterns of variation in assemblages using environmental data, allowing the prediction of assemblages across the study region. We apply RCP to a unique dataset of demersal fish occurrences across the northern Kerguelen Plateau to model and map the distribution of assemblages and examine the representativeness of the Heard Island and McDonald Island marine reserve. Results: We demonstrate that the RCP approach allows a direct and quantitative interpretation of the composition of assemblages as well as their environment. Further, the model reasonably predicts the occurrence of individual species across the plateau as well as the species composition of sites. We distinguish and map seven assemblages defined by depth, surface temperature and chlorophyll a. Shallow-water assemblages contain a high proportion of endemic species, while deep-water assemblages contain more cosmopolitan species. With the exception of one deep-water assemblage, assemblages were well represented within the current Heard and McDonald Islands marine reserve. Main conclusions: The RCP is a valuable tool for classifying biological regions with a range of ecological and conservation management applications. Our results extend current ecological and biogeographic knowledge for the northern Kerguelen Plateau, and maps of the distribution of assemblages will be useful for ongoing spatial management. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,1216-1230,,10,23,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,ABUNDANCE; biogeography; bioregionalization; CCAMLR; COMMUNITY; conservation management; data set; demersal fish; ecological mapping; ecological modeling; ecoregion; ecoregionalization; geographical distribution; Heard Island and McDonald Islands; Indian Ocean; Kerguelen Plateau; mapping; McDonald Island; quantitative analysis; regionalization; Regions of Common Profile; SCALE; Southern Ocean; spatial analysis,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Eight years later, CBD Parties adopted a definition and criteria for OECMs, and by early 2022, only a few OECMs had been reported. The OECM definition clearly requires that the measures be area-based and likely to contribute to conservation. However, conservation need not be their primary objective. Guidance on the extent and limits of what these “area measures” might include is needed. Clarity would assist countries in delivering on the CBD’s Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework, with decadal goals incorporating an area-based conservation target, in which OECMs will play a crucial role. To achieve greater recognition of OECMs, countries require sector-specific guidance to guide recognition, listing, and ongoing implementation of OECMs. Here, we evaluate how well area-based fisheries management measures meet the OECM criteria as well as sustainable use principles, broader ecosystem management objectives, and more general biodiversity conservation goals. We systematically review case studies across a broad range of spatial management approaches to provide evidence of correspondence with the OECM criteria, arguing that many with primary objectives related to fisheries sustainability provide co-benefits for biodiversity, and hence biodiversity conservation and sustainable development. This review highlights how fisheries measures can help achieve a number of Sustainable Development Goals alongside the global targets for biodiversity of CBD.

Identify parasites in huemul (Hippocamelus bisulcus) feces from natural protected areas of south-central Chile and evaluate differences in parasite prevalence between regions and seasons. Materials and methods. 200 fecal samples from huemul were collected during all seasons of the year from different localities of the Nuble, Aysen and Magallanes regions between years 2006 and 2008. Samples were analyzed using flotation and sedimentation techniques and further observed with the microscope in order to detect parasites. Additionally, 124 samples were analyzed to determine the presence of Fasciola hepatica. Results. The 38.0% (n=76/200) of samples were positive to at least one parasite form, evidencing a prevalence of 11.8% (n=2/17) in Nuble, 22.8% (n=28/123) in Aysen and a 76.7% (n=46/60) in Magallanes. Moniezia sp. eggs were found in the Nuble region, meanwhile, Strongyle-type eggs, Nematodirus sp. eggs and Eimeria spp. oocysts were found in the Aysen and Magallanes regions. There was no evidence of F. hepatica during sample examination. Differences in parasitism were detected between seasons in Aysen and Magallanes (p?0.05). Conclusions. Aysen and Magallanes regions showed a relatively higher prevalence and diversity of parasites than the Nuble region. This could be related to differences in density of huemul populations and livestock in each region. Further parasitological surveys in huemul populations from central and southern Chile should be performed in the future. Studies involving the relationship between the huemul and livestock and the potential inter-and intraspecific transmission of parasites are also required. © 2020 The Author(s).",,7268-7272,,2,24,,Rev.

In this study, we use a hydrodynamic model to examine the spatial distribution of eastern Baltic cod larvae and early juveniles. The transport patterns of the larvae spawned at the three major spawning grounds in the central Baltic Sea were investigated by drift model simulations for the period 1979-2004. We analysed potential habitats for their suitability for juvenile settlement, i.e. the change from pelagic to demersal life. The results revealed a clear dependence of the probability for successful settling on wind-induced drift of larval cod, which is controlled by the local atmospheric conditions over the Baltic Sea. Furthermore, we found evidence that the final destinations of juvenile cod drift routes are affected by decadal climate variability. Application of the methodology to MPA design is discussed, e.g. identifying the overlap of areas with a high probability of successful juvenile cod settlement and regions of high fishing effort in small-meshed fisheries targeting sprat and herring. © 2009 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.

We have set out the architecture of CCAMLR and its procedures and processes for decision-making, as well as the suite of measures its members have at their disposal to protect and conserve the ecological integrity of the marine environment. We explored the constraints that post-2002 oceans governance fora have imposed, not least because of the spatial and temporal magnitude of the task that has been set, especially as including the high seas in global targets has become de rigueur. While some comparatively small-scale steps toward designation have been proposed over the intervening decades – for example, pilot high seas MPAs – the emerging theme of big is best has endured. We are of the view that some members within CCAMLR have become captive to this mantra as a way of meeting their obligations through the banking of biodiversity. Universal acceptance of high seas MPAs has not been achieved. Existing MPAs cover less than 2.5 percent of the marine environment – most of this in national waters. The adoption of the MPA concept in CCAMLR has been achieved, insofar as a framework for MPA establishment is in place. However, the actual designation of MPAs has been slow (with one exception), reflecting a range of concerns about size, scientific justification, monitoring, enforcement, and legitimacy. Nevertheless, CCAMLR was the first international governance institution to declare a high seas MPA, that of the South Orkney Islands. Jacobson and Brown Weiss’ implementation and compliance framework has provided a useful lens for exploring the lack of consensus for MPA proposals within CCAMLR. Analysis of proposals for adopting MPAs in the Southern Ocean revealed that the likelihood of non-compliance increases when conflicting economic interests are at play. Members with the largest fishing interests in the Southern Ocean (including China, Norway, Japan, Russia, and Korea) have thus far failed to fully support MPA proposals that include no-take fishing zones. Examination of the characteristics of the accord exposed the specter of compromise politics at CCAMLR’s 2013 meeting in Bremerhaven when only two MPAs were considered for discussion, both of which had been significantly reduced in size. The move from four to two proposals implies that the motivation of proponents may be to conserve political opportunity rather than to advance any overriding ecological, ecosystem, or biological feature based on sound scientific evidence. As such, the characteristics of MPA accords in the Antarctic have become somewhat elastic. International negotiations surrounding high seas MPA proposals indicate that their legitimacy can be challenged. The deficit of MPAs with reference to numerous spatial and temporal targets has given rise to calls for super-sized zones for protection in areas beyond national jurisdiction. If implemented, these MPAs would represent the lowest hanging fruit of marine conservation, particularly when they occur in remote areas where the conflict between ecological protection and rational use is less prevalent, than, for example, in more heavily fished areas. Finally, we examined the members involved in the negotiations. Not only are they all members of CCAMLR, many are also Antarctic Treaty Consultative Parties, which means they have significant interest in the outcomes of discussions and, along with all other States, enjoy the privilege of veto, providing all with important leverage in issues of national interest. While the Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting (through the Committee for Environmental Protection) itself acknowledges the work of CCAMLR in establishing a representative system of MPAs and its legitimacy to do so, it eschews discussion of the details of MPAs in this forum, to the point recently of failing to adopt a resolution to support CCAMLR’s efforts. High seas marine protected areas might well be an idea whose time came a decade or so ago. However, significant work remains to embed this philosophy in the minds of all CCAMLR members. Protecting marine biodiversity so that it can be studied, understood, and valued is already within the power of those members. Adding the burden of enclosing huge swathes of the Southern Ocean with extra layers of rules undermines CCAMLR’s ability to fulfil its mandate, diverts attention from other serious matters (such as management of the expanding krill fisheries), and inadvertently raises questions about its view of its own management capacity given the suite of tools it already has in place. Demarcating areas of the marine environment should be premised on the integrity that the protective measure would bring to that area. It is about quality, not size. © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, 2015",,166-191,,1,29,,Ocean. Yearb.

The importance of stakeholder analysis is widely recognized as a necessary means for gaining insight into the complex systemic interactions between natural processes, management policies, and local people depending on the resource. Today, community and group-based participatory inquiry approaches are widely used for this purpose. Recently, participatory approaches have been critiqued for not considering power relations and conflict internal to the community. In this article, we suggest that the five-step Rapid Stakeholder and Conflict Assessment (RSCA) methodology addresses this critique. The objective of the methodology is to provide a facilitator with a comprehensive foundation on which to plan and conduct subsequent participatory project development. The RSCA integrates elements of soft systems and critical systems thinking. Qualitative research interviews and cognitive mapping of stakeholders' mental models are used for collection of empirical material and analysis. The RSCA methodology is demonstrated in a case study concerning buffer zone management in the coastal wetlands of southern Vietnam. The case study shows that the RSCA methodology can provide an efficient way of obtaining a holistic and critical understanding of a complex resource management situation, thus potentially enhancing project performance in an instrumental as well as an ethical sense. © Springer 2005.",,149-167,,2,22,,Agric.

While tourism provides many opportunities to improve the well-being of local communities, the expansion of tourism needs to be effectively managed to avoid the degradation of natural capital. Assessing resource awareness and use behavior is an effective way to determine the public’s commitment to natural resource conservation and restoration in protected areas. The research was performed in Bach Long Vy Island (BLV1) in Hai Phong city, Viet Nam which is the first National Marine protected area designated by the Vietnamese Government. The aim of this study was to estimate tourists’ Willingness to pay (WTP) for natural resource conservation at BLVI through using Contingent valuation method (CVM) with the single-bounded dichotomous choice technique and the random utility model. We estimate the average visitor WTP is VND 153 370 per year (approx. USS6.58), while the aggregate WTP of tourists for the environmental conservation is VND 7.67 million per year (approx. US$32 900) (currency conversions taken as the average rate in September 2020; US$1 to VND 23280). The calculated results show that income and gender factors have significant effects visitors WTP whereas age and education have opposite effects. The outcomes of this research demonstrate the potential tourism value of this island due to the natural amenities and high biodiversity, particularly originating from its marine ecosystems. This result provides valuable scientific information for decision makers and local authorities and should be useful in establishing strategics to prevent the deterioration of ecosystems at BLVI (c.g., an environmental charge or entrance fee), thus contributing to sustainable tourism development. © 2022, Publishing House of Natural Science and Technology, VAST.

The concept assumes an 'original state' exists and that a return to that state might be possible, if it could be determined and there was sufficient control of human interference. The concept has been important in both marine conservation planning and fisheries management. However, long periods of exploitation, observed and projected climate change, and the disappearance of some environments, suggest that a return to an original state is unlikely to be achievable in many systems. In addition, protection based on static marine protected areas is unlikely to meet common conservation objectives, as species and habitats are moving and species assemblages shuffling with the changing climate. An alternative to modeling single species distribution changes is to examine change in environmental proxies, such as sea surface temperature (SST). Here, projected changes in SST for the period 2063-2065 from a downscaled ocean model are used to illustrate the similarity to, and movements of, present pelagic environments within conservation planning areas off Eastern Australia. The future environment of small planning areas differs from their present environment and static protected areas might not protect range-changing species. Climate-aware conservation planning should consider the use of mobile protected areas to afford protection to species' changing their distribution, and develop conservation objectives that are not underpinned by a return to historical baselines. © 2011 Blackwell Verlag GmbH.",,392-403,,3,32,,Mar.

To achieve this, a methodology is described for which the acronym 'COMPARE' (Criteria and Objectives for Marine Protected ARea Evaluation) is coined. COMPARE also allows existing MPAs to be evaluated in terms of their efficacy, and can assess the effects of changes to either legislation or management of existing MPAs. As a first step, 14 objectives are defined that may be met by MPAs. These fall into three categories: biodiversity protection, fisheries management and human utilization. A series of criteria were then proposed which can be used selectively to quantify the degree to which MPAs meet these objectives. Each of the objectives is scored against the appropriate criteria in a semi-quantitative manner that allows areas to be compared, either overall or in terms of specific objectives. Simply by comparing the degree to which different types of MPAs might meet these objectives, it is clear that fishery reserves, proclaimed for the protection of individual commercial species, meet an extremely limited suite of objectives compared with marine sanctuaries that protect all species, or marine reserves, which protect all but a few species. Prominent among the advantages or COMPARE are that it compels an examination of all possible objectives, pinpoints the reasons for decisions, identifies issues that need resolution and requires development of management plans. Its primary strategic advantage is that its implementation should lead to a rationally planned and defensible network of MPAs that will contribute to the conservation of marine biodiversity in South Africa.",,369-383,,18,,,S.

The aim is to describe a simple method for data-limited fisheries to estimate ecosystem-based FMSY and how EBFM modellers could mimic the way natural fish communities function for maintaining ecological processes of biological production, biomass and ecosystem stability. Ecosystem stability (ES) FMSY were estimated by proportion of biological production allocated to predators, giving ESFMSY of 0.23 for small pelagic and 0.27 for pelagic finfish, prioritising ecosystem over economics. To maintain both stability and biomass (SB) a full pelagic EBFM SBFMSY of about 0.08 was obtained for both small pelagic and pelagic finfish, having mostly ecosystem considerations. As the FMSY are single-species averages of catchable species targeted in a specific trophic level, multispecies fishing mortalities were proportioned by the biological production of each species in the trophic level. This way catches for each species are consistent with the average ecosystem FMSY for a trophic level. The theoretical estimates gave similar results to other fisheries for sustainable fish catches that maintain the fishery ecosystem processes. They were also tested using six tropical Ecopath Models and showed the effects of imposing commercial fishing mortalities on predominantly EBFM conditions. The ecosystem stability ESFMSY is suggested to be investigated for sustainable fish catches and the full EBFM SBFMSY for protected areas or recovery of heavily depleted stocks. © 2022 Bruce R.

In Australia, much of this decline has been attributable to cyclic outbreaks (every ~17 years) of the coral-feeding crown-of-thorns seastar. While a native species, when in large enough densities the seastar acts like an invasive pest. Since 2012 the Australian government has invested significantly in a targeted control program using lethal injection. While this program is effective for individual reefs, it is not a complete strategy for the entire Great Barrier Reef (~2,500 reefs). In order to find a longer-term solution to the problem, in 2015, the lead author travelled to New Zealand, the United States, and Canada under a Churchill Fellowship to understand successful aquatic integrated pest management strategies and their potential application to the Great Barrier Reef. Meetings and workshops were convened with experts who specialise in risk assessment, categorisation, and management of aquatic invasive species. The experts comprised academics, applied scientists, policy makers, and a not for profit community based invasive species council. Bioinvasion management and prioritisation of management effort using risk-based frameworks were reviewed for application to the crown-of-thorns seastar. This viewpoint is novel in its approach of applying invasive species tools and perspectives to a non-invasive, native marine pest. Early detection and rapid response is key to preventing the transition of the seastar from natural densities to outbreak densities. However given the seastar is a native species already established, when in outbreak mode a multifaceted post-border management approach is essential. Private support funding models, that bridge conservation and tourism/philanthropy have proved successful in New Zealand to supplement government funded marine reserve management - this is an approach which should be explored by Australia to help manage the seastar. Dedicated support and commitment is needed to break the issue-attention cycle. On the Great Barrier Reef, a dedicated biosecurity approach should be used to maintain the seastar at natural densities, increase the time between outbreaks, protect coral cover and increase resilience of the system. © 2016 The Author(s).",,213-220,,3,7,,Manag.

The objective of this study was to describe the ecological knowledge and uses of the Amazonian manatee in the Extractive Reserve Verde para Sempre, Porto de Moz, Brazilian Amazon. This study was conducted through semi-structured interviews, free interviews, participant observation and image capture. Thirty-one residents were interviewed in 21 communities, using snowball sampling method. The interviewees were previously identified by local informants and selected according to their level of knowledge of the species. We collected information on the morphology, behavioral characteristics and feeding habits of manatees, and on the uses of the species by communities. Our findings suggest three hypotheses on the biology of Amazonian manatee: 1- the existence of three phenotypic patterns based on skin color and amount of fat; 2- changes in land use by agriculture, livestock and the installation of the hydroelectric plant affect their spatial distribution and seasonal migration; 3- they show reproductive behavior during the rainy season, in a polygamous way as a strategy of maintenance and genetic variability of the species. One third of the interviewees learned of the prohibition of manatee poaching during the implementation of the reserve. Poaching and consumption of manatees are rare, and entanglement of calves in fishing nets is accidental. These results reinforce the interest of local ecological knowledge in understanding the biology of the Amazônian manatee and their contribution to the delimitation of protected areas. © 2020",,,,,10,,Ethnobiol.

On the one hand, many analysts have portrayed MPAs as win-win solutions, resulting in both increased biodiversity and improved livelihoods. On the other hand, some analysts have argued that win-win outcomes are mythical, and in practice, MPAs invariably result in trade-offs between ecological and economic objectives. This study seeks to test which of these two hypotheses fits the Cabo de Palos Islas Hormigas marine protected area (CPH-MPA) in southeast Spain. However, it does so not by analysing directly the tension between the two objectives of ecological and economic goals, but by analysing the tensions between four groups of stakeholders—fishers, divers, community residents, and administrators—which map on to the tension between the two goals. The study is based on 111 interviews of key informants conducted in 2013–2014 to discover the perceptions of stakeholders on the issue of who are the winners and who are the losers as a result of the MPA. The main findings of this study on the CPH-MPA are that winning and losing are very complex and ambiguous categories; that there is no objective way of determining who are winners or losers; that the situation of winners and losers is due to human intervention rather than a natural and inevitable process; that win-win outcomes are implausible because trade-offs between wins and losses are inevitable; and that political authorities have to decide who will be the winners and who will be the losers. © 2019, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,159-171,,2,18,,Marit.

The governance approach adopted in CPHMPA is shared authority between regional and state governments, whereas in CGNMPA it is state-led. In each MPA, limited coordination between national and regional government, and weak management at both levels, has made achievement of strategic conservation objectives significantly more challenging. Inconsistencies in legislation applied to internal and territorial waters have left both MPAs vulnerable to local economic development priorities. The reliance on economic and legal incentives has increased employment opportunities within the communities studied, but has also incurred environmental and social costs. Overall, the authors conclude that the current governance approaches are insufficient to effectively address all the challenges faced. In order to achieve more effective and equitable outcomes for both MPAs, greater coordination between national and regional government is required, along with interventions to introduce more participative and knowledge incentives to generate a greater sense of stewardship among all stakeholders. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,127,,Mar.

Whilst seen as a holistic and geopolitically achievable approach to conservation, there is currently a mismatch between the size of VLMPAs, and the data available to underpin their establishment and inform on their management. Habitat mapping has increasingly been adopted as a means of addressing paucity in biological data, through use of environmental proxies to estimate species and community distribution. Small-scale studies have demonstrated environmental-biological links in marine systems. Such links, however, are rarely demonstrated across larger spatial scales in the benthic environment. As such, the utility of habitat mapping as an effective approach to the ecosystem-based management of VLMPAs remains, thus far, largely undetermined. The aim of this study was to assess the ecological relevance of broadscale landscape mapping. Specifically we test the relationship between broad-scale marine landscapes and the structure of their benthic faunal communities. We focussed our work at the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia, site of one of the largest MPAs in the world. We demonstrate a statistically significant relationship between environmentally derived landscape mapping clusters, and the composition of presence-only species data from the region. To demonstrate this relationship required specific re-sampling of historical species occurrence data to balance biological rarity, biological cosmopolitism, range-restricted sampling and fine-scale heterogeneity between sampling stations. The relationship reveals a distinct biological signature in the faunal composition of individual landscapes, attributing ecological relevance to South Georgia's environmentally derived marine landscape map. We argue therefore, that landscape mapping represents an effective framework for ensuring representative protection of habitats in management plans. Such scientific underpinning of marine spatial planning is critical in balancing the needs of multiple stakeholders whilst maximising conservation payoff. © 2018 The Authors",,384-398,,,626,,Sci.

Understanding the patterns of this heterogeneity is central to general guidelines for MPA design and can ultimately provide guidance on how to maximize MPA potential. Here, we examine associations between the degree of protection, duration of protection, and protected area size, with fish biodiversity inside of protected areas relative to that of sites nearby, but outside of protected areas. We quantitatively synthesize 116 published estimates of species richness from 72 MPAs and 38 estimates of Shannon entropy from 21 MPAs. We show that species richness is on average 18% (95% CIs: 10%-29%) higher in protected areas than in areas open to fishing; on average, Shannon entropy is 13% (95% CIs: -2% to 31%) higher within protected areas relative to outside. We find no relationship between the degree and duration of protection with the ratio of species richness inside versus outside of protected areas; both fully and partially protected areas contribute to the accumulation of species inside of protected areas, and protected areas of all ages contribute similarly on average to biodiversity conservation. In contrast to our expectations, increasing protected area size was associated with a decreased ratio of species richness sampled at sites inside versus outside of the protected area, possibly due, for example, to insufficient enforcement and/or low compliance. Finally, we discuss why meta-analyses such as ours that summarize effect sizes of local scale biodiversity responses, that is, those at a single site, can only give a partial answer to the question of whether larger protected areas harbor more species than comparable unprotected areas.",,,,12,14,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001125875600001,,,,,,,biodiversity; CONSEQUENCES; conservation; CONSERVATION; fishes; IMPACT; marine conservation; marine protected areas; NEED; NETWORKS; protected areas; RESERVES; RESPONSE RATIOS; SHORTCOMINGS; SITES; species diversity; species richness; TARGETS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Parks and protected areas are, however, typically developed using a static interpretation of current biodiversity and landscape conditions. The observed and potential climate change impacts to biodiversity have created a need to also contemplate how parks and protected areas will respond to climate change and how these areas will represent the future range of landscape conditions. To assess change in biodiversity, broad-scale ecosystem information can be sourced from indirect remotely sensed indicators. Quantifying biodiversity through indirect indicators allows characterization of inter-relationships between climate and biodiversity. Such characterizations support the assessment of possible implications of climatic change, as the indicators can be generated using modeled forecasts of future climatic conditions. In this paper we model and map impacts of climate change on British Columbia's parks and protected areas by quantifying change in a number of remotely sensed indicators of biodiversity. These indicators are based on the measured amount of incoming solar energy used by vegetation and map the overall annual energy utilization, variability (seasonality), and latent or baseline energy. We compare current conditions represented by parks and protected areas, to those forecasted in the year 2065. Our results indicate that parks and protected areas are forecasted to become more productive and less seasonal, due to increased vegetation productivity in higher elevation environments. While increased vegetation productivity may be beneficial for biodiversity overall, these changes will be particularly problematic for sensitive and specialist species. Future gaps in vegetation conditions protected by parks and protected areas are observed in the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains and the central interior region of British Columbia. Protected areas along the Coast Mountains, Vancouver Island highlands, and the Rocky Mountains show the greatest levels of change in the biodiversity indicators, including decreasing seasonality, with the Mountain Hemlock ecozone most at risk. Examples of large parks that are predicted to experience rapid change in vegetation characteristics include Strathcona, Garabaldi, and Kitlope. Our maps of future spatial distributions of indirect biodiversity indicators fill a gap in information products available for adaptive parks management and provide an opportunity for dialogue and further research on the use of future scenarios of landscape conditions in conservation planning. © 2013 by the authors; licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.",,352-373,,2,5,,Diversity,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,biodiversity; Biodiversity; British Columbia; Canada; climate change; Climate change; climate effect; Coast Mountains; Dynamic habitat index; FPAR; landscape change; modeling; protected area; Protected areas; remote sensing; Remote sensing; Rocky Mountains; satellite data; Vancouver Island,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Systematic conservation planning (SCP) is commonly used in decision-making to guide spatially efficient protected area expansion. Here we contend that SCP can also be used to streamline MSP negotiations by developing a coherent, integrated portfolio of sites for multiple sectors that depend on biodiversity being maintained in a good state, as a counterpoint to spatial priorities for those commercial and industrial activities that have negative environmental impacts. We demonstrate this in Algoa Bay, South Africa, given the social-ecological complexity of the bay, and its central location in the first national MSP process. In anticipation of this national process, a civil-society-led Community of Practice was established with a core team to lead stakeholder engagement, data acquisition and management, and SCP analyses. More than 500 stakeholders participated in the project and many contributed spatial data or engaged in expert-based participatory mapping. Spatial products were supplemented with existing, published datasets. Altogether, conservation targets were set for 115 biodiversity features and 22 nature-based activities, with the cost layer built from data on 10 commercial and industrial activities, cumulative pressures (n = 31) on ecosystems, and planning-unit area. All targets were met in 15% of the study area, of which only a third (4%) was outside of marine protected areas, demonstrating that it is possible to align multi-sector priorities for intact biodiversity. This approach can be widely applied in MSP to support sustainable ocean economies. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,271,,Biol.

They have made large investments in this enterprise since the so-called moratorium on commercial whaling was adopted by the International Whaling Commission in 1982. These include, but are not confined to, state subsidizing of an expanding and diversifying 20-year programme of commercial whaling under provisions in all relevant international agreements since 1937 that permit unlimited and unilaterally decreed whaling, supposedly for scientific purposes, provided that the commodities from the whales killed are fully utilized. The context of this is the monopoly of technical knowledge, special skills and the market for valuable whale-meat that Japanese enterprises acquired in the post-world war II period, having broken - in 1937 - the strongly defended de facto Anglo-Norwegian monopoly of technology, skills, access to Antarctic whaling grounds and the market for whale-oil that had existed until then. The attraction of 'scientific whaling' is not only that it by-passes any internationally agreed catch-limits but that it also circumvents all other rules - many dating fr/om the League of Nations whaling convention of 1931 - regarding protected species, closed areas, killing of juveniles, less inhumane killing methods, etc. The groundwork is being laid to justify that resumed whaling on partially recovered whale stocks will be at the unsustainable levels that will be profitable again. This justification is based on spurious assertions that numerous and hungry whales threaten the world's fisheries, and that the abundance and possible increase in some whale species is impeding the recovery of other, severely depleted, and potentially more valuable species such as the blue whale. If the scenario presented here is correct it has important implications for attempts by the international community either to bring a negotiated end to commercial whaling or to bring all whaling back under international control, as the international law of the sea requires, and to ensure that any permitted exploitation of recovered whale populations will be sustainable, under a precautionary regime. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

However, it also suffers high levels of deforestation and degradation to meet the demands for timber extraction and agricultural activities. In Sarawak, areas designated as permanent forests account for 35.2% of the total land area, much of which have already been opened up for timber extraction. In contrast, protected areas constitute less than 7% of the land area and are mostly sparsely distributed. Forests outside these protected areas are crucial for the conservation of wildlife. For long-term wildlife conservation to be effective, attention must be focused on how logging activities are carried out and how habitats for wildlife within these logging concessions are managed. This study was carried out in a logging concession in central Sarawak where sustainable forest management is practised. The objectives were to document the composition of wildlife, their use of key habitat sites and the effects of forest disturbance. Camera trapping exercises were carried out from August 2010 to November 2011. Preliminary results indicate that older logged-over areas contained higher diversity of animal species. Overall, 32 species of terrestrial mammals and ground-dwelling birds were recorded, of which 19 species were recorded to have visited salt licks. Ungulates were recorded visiting salt licks with the highest abundance. In forests that were logged 7 years ago and left to recover, the Borneo bay cat (Catopuma badia), a globally significant species, was recorded. This result indicates the importance of sustainable forest management and suggests some of the methods logging companies can undertake to conserve wildlife in a production forest environment. © 2020, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.",,171-180,,,,,,,,,,,Springer International Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Adv.

Because the reasons for MPA implementation can differ, it is imperative that resource managers design and execute management strategies that allow them to effectively assess MPA performance relative to the goals they set. We compared three MPA monitoring techniques commonly utilised to survey groundfish populations across different depth strata of temperate rocky reef habitat: underwater visual census (0–20 m), scientific hook and line fishing (10–50 m) and baited remote underwater video (30–100 m). We compared the strength and direction of standardised metrics, including response ratios, diversity indices and community structure, examining results through the lens of MPA performance. While each of our monitoring techniques detected similar MPA effects on groundfish biomass and density aggregated across species, MPA effects for individual species varied across methods. Each technique was shown to survey distinct groundfish community assemblages with varying levels of species diversity and richness. Synthesis and applications. While each technique was found to measure similar general trends in marine protected area (MPA) performance over time, we found compelling evidence that the utilization of multiple techniques allows managers to create the most comprehensive, effective and inclusive MPA monitoring regimes. © 2023 The Authors.

However, the spatial nature of the interplay between potential threats and predator life histories requires careful consideration for the establishment of effective reserves.

This is particularly true in many marine fishery species, which frequently experience large temporal fluctuations in recruitment that produce interannual variations in populations. This variability complicates efforts to maintain stocks at management targets or detect the effects of rebuilding efforts. We address this challenge in the context of no-take marine reserves by exploring how variable larval recruitment could interact with the timing of reserve establishment and choice of sampling design to affect population dynamics and the detectability of reserve effects. To predict population changes in the years following a no-take reserve implementation, we first tested for periodicity in larval recruitment in an important U.S. Pacific coast recreational fishery species (kelp bass, Paralabrax clathratus) and then included that pattern in a population model. We also used this model to determine the detectability of population increases under alternative sampling approaches and minimum age sampled. Kelp bass larval recruitment in the Channel Islands, California, peaked every about six (major) and about two (minor) years. Our model showed that establishing a reserve during a peak or trough enhanced or delayed, respectively, the post-reserve population increases. However, establishing a reserve during a recruitment peak could obscure a failing reserve, that is, a reserve that is unable to secure longer-term metapopulation persistence. Recruitment peaks and troughs also interacted with sampling design to affect the detectability of reserve effects. Designs that compared inside-outside were the most robust to variable recruitment, but failed to capture whether the reserve has improved metapopulation growth. Designs that included a time element (e.g., before-after) are more suited to assessing reserve effectiveness, but were sensitive to recruitment variation and detectability can change year-to-year. Notably, detectability did not always increase monotonically with reserve age; the optimal time for detectability depended on the minimum age of organisms sampled and was greatest when the cohort of a major recruitment peak first appeared in the sampling. We encourage managers to account for variable recruitment when planning monitoring and assessment programs. © 2021 The Ecological Society of America.",,,,2,32,,Ecol.

Ecological MPA assessments commonly compare inside of the MPA to a reference point outside of and/or before implementation (i.e., calculating “response ratios”). Yet, MPAs are not simple ecological experiments; by design, protected populations interact with those outside, and population dynamic responses can be nonlinear. This complicates assessment interpretations. Here, we used a two-patch population model to explore how MPA response ratios (outside–inside, before–after, and before–after-control-impact [BACI]) for fished populations behave under different conditions, like whether the population is receiving a sustainable larval supply or if it is declining despite protection from harvest. We then conducted a Bayesian evaluation of MPA effects on fish and invertebrate populations based on data collected from 82 published studies on 264 no-take MPAs worldwide, using the results of an earlier global meta-analysis as priors. We considered the effects of calculating different summary metrics on these results, drawing on the theoretical insights from our population model as a comparative framework. We demonstrate that not all response ratio comparison types provide the same information: For example, outside–inside and BACI comparisons can fail to detect population decline within MPAs, whereas before–after comparisons likely detect that pattern. Considering these limitations, we nonetheless found that MPAs globally are producing positive outcomes, with on average greater biomass, density, and organism size within their boundaries than reference sites. However, only a small portion of studies (18 of 82) provided the temporal data necessary to determine that protection, on average, has led to increased abundance of populations within MPAs over time. These findings demonstrate the importance of considering the underlying system dynamics when assessing MPA effects. Assuming that large outside–inside or BACI response ratios always reflect large and net positive conservation effects may lead to misleading conclusions, we recommend that: (1) when assessing specific MPA effects, empirical findings be considered alongside theoretical knowledge relevant to that MPA system, and (2) management should respond to the local conditions and outcomes, rather than a blanket expectation for positive MPA effects. © 2024 The Ecological Society of America.",,,,7,34,,Ecol.

Few MPA networks to date have included specific considerations of climate change in the design, monitoring or management of the network. The Scottish MPA network followed a feature-led approach to identify a series of MPAs across the Scottish marine area and incorporated the diverse views of many different stakeholders. This feature led approach has led to wide ranging opinions and understandings regarding the success of the MPA network. Translating ideas of success into a policy approach whilst also considering how climate change may affect these ideas of success is a complex challenge. This paper presents the results of a Delphi process that aimed to facilitate clear communication between academics, policy makers and stakeholders in order to identify specific climate change considerations applicable to the Scottish MPA network. This study engaged a group of academic and non-academic stakeholders to discuss potential options that could be translated into an operational process for management of the MPA network. The results of Delphi process discussion are presented with the output of a management matrix tool, which could aid in future decisions for MPA management under scenarios of climate change. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,303-311,,,207,,Estuar.

The success of MPAs in achieving biodiversity conservation objectives is strongly dependent on effective management. However, evaluation frameworks for MPA management measures are often procedurally or governance focused with limited consideration of biological criteria. Here we review guiding ecological principles of MPA network design and how they can be applied to the evaluation of MPA management measures for effective biodiversity conservation. We have developed a Qualitative Statement Framework that makes recommendations for applying ecological principles to MPA management measures, using the Scottish nature conservation MPA network as a case study. Our statements to guide MPA management measure evaluation relate to principles: representation, ecologically significant areas, rare, threatened or declining features replication, connectivity, adequacy/viability and resilience. We suggest that using the ecological principles for MPA design in management measure evaluation addresses a gap in current management evaluation tools. This approach would be particularly useful in situations where management measures are applied to MPAs post-designation and where MPAs are managed as zoned or multi-use sites.

Although forging partnerships is widely advocated because of the beliefs of the benefits it brings, there is very little empirical evidence about the management performance of MPA networks, and the extent to which networks enhance the management of individual MPAs. In this paper, we present measures of the management performance of collaborative partnerships to coordinate management of MPA networks. To evaluate performance of MPA networks managed by multiple governance units, we used a combination of quantitative and qualitative survey tools (e.g. performance assessment tools, interviews, perception surveys), and synthesized the results using a scoring rubric and analysis of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. We evaluated three MPA networks in the Philippines with different sizes, histories, and objectives to test our research methods. We found that our approach improved overall evaluation of the performance of MPA networks and individual MPAs. Moreover, our analysis for each MPA network showed different combinations of outcomes, highlighting the importance of using a suite of research methods and tools. We found that MPA networks furthered the development and effectiveness of spatial management in the Philippines. However, the objectives of the collaborative partnerships, their histories, and the diversity and complexity of governance (e.g. more diverse interests with increasing number of participating institutions) had a mixed effect on the management of networks and of individual MPAs. The outcomes of this research provide an approach to evaluating management performance that can facilitate the establishment and strengthening of MPA networks in areas similar to the Philippines with multiple governance units and complex social, economic, and political contexts. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,Nov-25,,,95,,Ocean Coast.

Most MPAs have been established and managed by communities together with local governments in a variety of community-based and co-management schemes. This approach has proven successful in gaining community acceptance and achieving local-scale fisheries and conservation objectives. However, the contribution of these MPAs to ecologically connected networks of MPAs is variable since most MPAs were not designed to be parts of networks. Nevertheless, there is growing support for the development of MPAs within the national integrated coastal management framework which supports the "" scaling up"" of MPAs to establish networks. Scaling up in the Philippine context is achieved by forging inter-institutional collaboration among neighboring local governments (i.e. village to provincial level), with the assistance of other institutions such as non-government organizations, academe, government agencies, and development partners including donors. Herein we review the history of MPAs in the Philippines and the development of inter-institutional collaborations and present examples of scaling up of MPAs to form networks.

However, since many of these MPAs were not designed to form ecologically-connected networks, their contributions to broader-scale goals such as complementarity and connectivity can be limited. In contrast, integrated networks of MPAs designed with systematic conservation planning are assumed to be more effective-ecologically, socially, and economically-than collections of locally-established MPAs. There is, however, little empirical evidence that clearly demonstrates the supposed advantages of systematic MPA networks. A key reason is the poor record of implementation of systematic plans attributable to lack of local buy-in. An intermediate scenario for the expansion of MPAs is scaling up of local decisions, whereby locally-driven MPA initiatives are coordinated through collaborative partnerships among local governments and their communities. Coordination has the potential to extend the benefits of individual MPAs and perhaps to approach the potential benefits offered by systematic MPA networks. We evaluated the benefits of scaling up local MPAs to form networks by simulating seven expansion scenarios for MPAs in the Verde Island Passage, central Philippines. The scenarios were: uncoordinated community-based establishment of MPAs; two scenarios reflecting different levels of coordinated MPA expansion through collaborative partnerships; and four scenarios guided by systematic conservation planning with different contexts for governance. For each scenario, we measured benefits through time in terms of achievement of objectives for representation of marine habitats. We found that: in any governance context, systematic networks were more efficient than non-systematic ones; systematic networks were more efficient in broader governance contexts; and, contrary to expectations but with caveats, the uncoordinated scenario was slightly more efficient than the coordinated scenarios. Overall, however, coordinated MPA networks have the potential to be more efficient than the uncoordinated ones, especially when coordinated planning uses systematic methods.

Yet, an efficient monitoring program for MPAs is still to be implemented and will benefit from pre-existing information. The highly regulated MPA of Punta Francés National Park is one of the first Cuban MPAs and was established mainly to protect species and ecosystems for tourism purposes. Monitoring of protection effects on commercial fish species was lacking in this MPA. This study aimed at increasing local scientific knowledge by providing a baseline study about the most commercially fished families (Haemulidae, Lutjanidae and Serranidae) around Punta Francés MPA. Data collected represent only a limited period but can be used as a base point to support future monitoring. Fish abundance in number and biomass, and size were collected to test for differences between inside and adjacent areas outside the Punta Francés MPA, in different coral reef types. The main result of this study was the significantly larger size and biomass of snappers and groupers outside the MPA where intense fisheries occur. An observation consistent with a large spawning aggregation was also recorded outside the MPA. Even with a limited set of data, these results suggest that, at least temporarily, the most targeted species [and sizes] are still highly vulnerable to fisheries. Relevant habitats in the adjacent area, that are apparently missing within the MPA, may support some of the results found. Extending the limits of the Punta Francés MPA to include those habitats outside may be critical to ensure the effectiveness of this MPA in contributing to protect the most commercial species of the region. This should be done together with efficient fisheries management measures in the region, such as the significantly increase of minimum legal sizes and temporal closures during spawning migrations. © 2020 Shanghai Ocean University",,234-244,,5,5,,Aquac.

Despite this, few studies have satisfactorily assessed the dynamics of fishers' adaptations to the loss of fishing grounds. Here we used data from before, during and after the implementation of the management plan of a temperate Atlantic multiple-use MPA to examine the factors affecting the spatial and temporal distribution of different gears used by the artisanal fishing fleet. The position of vessels and gear types were obtained by visual surveys and related to spatial features of the marine park. A hotspot analysis was conducted to identify heavily utilized patches for each fishing gear and time period. The contribution of individual vessels to each significant cluster was assessed to better understand fishers' choices. Different fisheries responded differently to the implementation of protection measures, with preferred habitats of target species driving much of the fishers' choices. Within each fishery, individual fishers showed distinct strategies with some operating in a broader area whereas others kept preferred territories. Our findings are based on reliable methods that can easily be applied in coastal multipurpose MPAs to monitor and assess fisheries and fishers responses to different management rules and protection levels. This paper is the first in-depth empirical study where fishers' choices from artisanal fisheries were analysed before, during and after the implementation of a MPA, thereby allowing a clearer understanding of the dynamics of local fisheries and providing significant lessons for marine conservation and management of coastal systems. © 2013 Horta e Costa et al.",,,,6,8,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,ADJACENT; animal; Animals; article; behavior; Behavior; behavioral research; BENEFITS; coastal waters; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; ecosystem; Ecosystem; environmental management; environmental planning; environmental protection; Fisheries; fisherman; fishery; fishery management; fishing; geography; Geography; human; LOCAL SPATIAL AUTOCORRELATION; manpower; marine environment; marine protected area; national park; PATTERNS; Portugal; RESERVES; ship; Ships; SPILLOVER; STRATEGIES; target organism; territoriality; ZONING CHANGES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This has led to a race to designate large MPAs, but despite the valid marine conservation efforts, conferring adequate protection is still at risk. While fully protected areas are considered the most efficient tools to effectively protect the integrity of ecosystems, most existing or proposed MPAs are far from being fully or strongly protected. Portugal, with the 20th largest EEZ of the world is well positioned to lead ocean conservation efforts and provides a suitable case study for analysis of protection conferred by existing MPAs. To this end, Portuguese MPAs were assessed according to different types of classification systems and it was found that most MPAs confer little or no additional protection compared to outside areas. The results differ according to the classification system used, revealing the importance of finding a common system for evaluating progress in ocean conservation. The relevance of adequately labelling and understanding the levels of protection in place is demonstrated.

When assessing the ecological, economic, and social-cultural impacts of protection, the dynamics of fisheries and fishers reallocation within and around multiple-use MPAs should be analyzed. Despite this, few studies incorporate the baseline information of fisheries distribution, therefore compromising an understanding of fishers' preferences, choices and constrains before losing fishing grounds through the establishment of zoning and protection measures. To fulfil this gap, here we assess the spatial and seasonal fishers' preferences from local artisanal fisheries (nets, traps, jigs and longlines) before the implementation of a MPA management plan (the Arrábida Marine Park, Portugal). Zero inflated modelling, hotspot analysis, vessels distribution range and site fidelity statistics showed that the main drivers of fishing effort allocation are the placement of preferred fishing grounds which are likely related to the distribution of target species and associated habitats. Proximity to port, weather conditions and distance to coast are also important factors influencing, in different ways, these artisanal fisheries. Our findings highlight the complex dynamics of the distribution of artisanal fisheries operating multiple-gears and targeting multiple-species and are likely transferable to many coastal multiple-use MPAs where no baseline data exist. Moreover, the variety of responses and preferences found between gears and fishers before the establishment of zoning are important to understand the dynamics of local fisheries, to contribute to an ecosystem-based management and to improve both conservation and fisheries management decisions. Our study is one of the few characterizing fisheries dynamics and fishers' preferences before protection measures are implemented providing important lessons to the management of coastal fisheries where artisanal fisheries prevail. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.",,27-37,,,148,,Fish.

Stakeholder engagement in MPA design can contribute to increasing integration. This study focuses on the co-design of an MPA between researchers, public administration, the private sector, and non-governmental organizations. The proposed MPA is in Portugal and includes an area that is a hotspot for biodiversity and economic activities. This is the first MPA proposal in mainland Portugal co-designed using a participatory approach. This study highlights the steps of the zoning process and synthesizes the eight main lessons learned, useful for other cases, particularly for relatively small coastal MPAs with multiple socioeconomic activities. Three zoning proposals were developed and discussed within the participatory process. The proposals considered the best scientific and local knowledge available and were defined using ecological, socioeconomic, and shape-area guiding principles. In an iterative manner and following a participatory approach, compromises with stakeholders were achieved, and a final proposal, scientifically sound and socially accepted by most stakeholders, was delivered to the government. The final zoning plan will achieve ambitious conservation goals, including the largest fully protected area to be declared in mainland Portugal, while minimizing the impacts on the existing economic activities and promoting its sustainability. This process resulted in valuable lessons that may be applied elsewhere and guide future MPA implementation or rezoning of existing ones. These transdisciplinary and participatory processes can be time and resource-consuming but are vital for ensuring MPA effectiveness.

While this premise is generally accepted, management interventions are complicated because the contributions from individual stressors are difficult to distinguish. The present study examined the extent to which fishing pressure and pollution predicted progress towards the Micronesia Challenge, an international conservation strategy initiated by the political leaders of 6 nations to conserve at least 30% of marine resources by 2020. The analyses were rooted in a defined measure of coral-reef-ecosystem condition, comprised of biological metrics that described functional processes on coral reefs. We report that only 42% of the major reef habitats exceeded the ecosystem-condition threshold established by the Micronesia Challenge. Fishing pressure acting alone on outer reefs, or in combination with pollution in some lagoons, best predicted both the decline and variance in ecosystem condition. High variances among ecosystem-condition scores reflected the large gaps between the best and worst reefs, and suggested that the current scores were unlikely to remain stable through time because of low redundancy. Accounting for the presence of marine protected area (MPA) networks in statistical models did little to improve the models' predictive capabilities, suggesting limited efficacy of MPAs when grouped together across the region. Yet, localized benefits of MPAs existed and are expected to increase over time. Sensitivity analyses suggested that (i) grazing by large herbivores, (ii) high functional diversity of herbivores, and (iii) high predator biomass were most sensitive to fishing pressure, and were required for high ecosystem-condition scores. Linking comprehensive fisheries management policies with these sensitive metrics, and targeting the management of pollution, will strengthen the Micronesia Challenge and preserve ecosystem services that coral reefs provide to societies in the face of climate change. © 2015 Houk et al.

The presence of heterogeneous environments throughout the volcanic Northern Mariana Islands (NMI), coupled with the availability of descriptive physical data, form the basis examining environmental-ecological relationships. Since 2003, coral abundances and macrobiota (all visibly recognizable taxa greater than 2 cm) occurrences have been estimated at 42 reef slopes along the volcanic archipelago. Analyses showed that reef types acted as surrogates of coral growth capacity and the modern assemblages residing upon them, being highest and most favorable, respectively, where relatively high salinity levels, low-to-moderate wave exposure, and an absence of volcanic activity for ~90 years existed. However, island size was the greatest constraint on species richness overall, but relations with corals were dampened by volcanic activity and increased for sponges and algae where greater connection with the island aquifer existed (i. e., relatively low salinity levels). The number of years since volcanic activity has occurred was positively related to the residuals of species-area relationships and coral cover, with a ~90-year time frame predicted for recovery. Notably, no relationships with watershed characteristics or distance from CNMI's main fishing port and coral-reef assemblages or species richness were found. Further examination of specific management concerns, such as fisheries and feral animal populations, should be designed to account for the inherent differences in driving environmental regimes. Management strategies focused upon conserving biodiversity and ecosystem function should be centered at the island level, matching the operational scale of dominant environmental-ecological relationships. Marine reserves represent a strategy pertinent for the remote NMI; a spatial structure is discussed. © Springer-Verlag 2009.",,59-70,,1,29,,Coral Reefs,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,abundance; algae; Animalia; Anthozoa; conservation planning; coral reef; Coral-reef assemblages; ecosystem function; environmental conditions; environmental disturbance; Environmental drivers; Management; Mariana Islands; Northern Mariana Islands; species diversity; species richness; Species richness; Volcanic disturbances; volcanology,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This paper assesses the efficiency of existing Welsh reserves in meeting conservation goals, including implications of changing objectives. Marxan conservation planning software was used to determine 20 broad-scale habitat types found in territorial seas, using data obtained from the European Environment Agency's Level 3 Predicted EUNIS Habitats GIS dataset. Results demonstrated that the current Welsh MPA network, even at the lowest conservation targets (?10%), fails to suitably represent more than two-thirds of the broad-scale habitats found in its coastal waters. Subsequently, a range of alternative reserve design scenarios was developed to reduce inefficiency opportunity costs. Analysis indicated that an increase of less than 5% in total reserve area, plus a retention of 75% of the current network area, would create a new network to meet or exceed all stated conservation goals. Therefore, existing reserves can be incorporated into an efficient, ecologically representative network that reduces international conservation opportunity costs. © 2017",,217-230,,,149,,Ocean Coast.

Managing them well is vital to human well-being as well as the maintenance of marine biodiversity and ocean-dependent economies. Carbon sequestration and storage is increasingly recognized as a valuable service provided by coastal vegetation. Carbon sequestered and stored by mangrove forests, tidal marshes, and seagrass meadows is known as ‘blue’ carbon. These habitats capture and store carbon within the plants themselves and in the sediment below them. When the habitats are destroyed, much of their carbon is released back to the atmosphere and ocean contributing to global climate change. Therefore, blue carbon ecosystem protection is becoming a greater priority in marine management and is an area of interest to scientists, policy makers, coastal communities, and the private sector including those that contribute to ecosystem degradation but also those that are looking to reduce their carbon footprint. A range of policy and management responses aim to reduce coastal ecosystem loss, including the establishment of marine protected areas (MPAs). This paper explores how MPA design, location, and management could be used to protect and increase carbon sequestration and ensure integrity of carbon storage through conservation and restoration activities. While additional research is necessary to validate the proposed recommendations, this paper describes much needed first steps and highlights the potential for blue carbon finance mechanisms to provide sustainable funding for MPAs.

Little is known about how this large predator population may affect the recovery of fish stocks in the Salish Sea, where candidate marine protected areas are being proposed. We used a bioenergetics model to calculate baseline consumption rates in the San Juan Islands, Washington. Salmonids (Oncorhynchus spp.) and herring (Clupeidae) were the 2 most energetically important prey groups for biomass consumed by harbor seals. Estimated consumption of salmonids was 783 (±380 standard deviation [SD]) metric tons (t) in the breeding season and 675 (±388 SD t in the nonbreeding season. Estimated consumption of herring was 646 (±303 SD) t in the breeding season and 2151 (±706 SD) t in the nonbreeding season. Rockfish, a depressed fish stock currently in need of population recovery, composed one of the minor prey groups consumed by harbor seals (84 [±26 SD] t in the nonbreeding season). The variables of seal body mass and proportion of prey in seal diet explained >80% of the total variation in model outputs. Prey groups, such as rockfish, that are targeted for recovery may still be affected by even low levels of predation.

For the deep sea, these data are lacking. Habitat suitability modelling offers a robust defensible means to fill data gaps, provided models are sufficiently reliable. We tested the performance of published models of 2 deep-sea habitat-forming taxa at low and high resolutions (~1 km and 200 m grid-cell size), across the extended exclusive economic zones of the UK and Ireland. We constructed new data-rich models and compared new and old estimates of the area of habitat protected, noting changes in the protected area network since 2015. Results of independent validation suggest that all published models perform worse than expected considering original crossvalidation results, but model performance is still good or fair for Desmophyllum pertusum reef, with poorer performance for Pheronema carpenteri sponge models. High-resolution models using multibeam data out-perform low-resolution GEBCO-based models. Newly constructed models are good to excellent according to cross validation. New model spatial predictions reflect published models, but with a significant reduction in predicted extent. The current marine protected area network and the European Union ban on bottom trawling below 800 m protect 40 and 60% of D. pertusum reef-suitable habitat, respectively, and 11 and 100% of P. carpenteri-suitable habitat, respectively, within the model domain. We conclude that high-resolution models of D. pertusum reef distribution are a useful tool in spatial management. The poorer performing P. carpenteri model indicates areas for more detailed study. While low-resolution models can provide conservative estimates of percentage area-based conservation targets following the precautionary principle, high-resolution sea-floor mapping supports the development of better-performing models.  © Inter-Research 2022.",,33-51,,,695,,Mar.

One of the primary objectives of MPA networks is to achieve representation of all marine biological diversity. Since we do not know the extent of biological diversity nor its distribution and function, we use surrogates to represent biological diversity. At a broad scale, measures of the physical environment are used, however at a fine scale biological assemblages have been shown to provide better representation of known biological diversity. While there are well known descriptions of assemblages for shallow water environments, few such descriptions of deep-sea benthic assemblages have been attempted. This paper provides descriptions of deep-sea epibenthic megafaunal assemblages based on a broad-scale video and stills image survey of the upper bathyal (200-1000m) regions of the Rockall Trough and eastern Faroe-Shetland Channel. One thousand nine hundred and eighty-seven images were analysed from 139 video transects sampled from Dangaard and Explorer Canyons, Rosemary Bank Seamount, Hatton Bank, Wyville-Thomson Ridge, and the continental slope west and north-west of Shetland. Quantitative data obtained were analysed using cluster analysis and SIMPER analysis in Primer V.6 to identify benthic assemblages and their characterizing species. Thirty-one epibenthic megafaunal assemblages are defined by their characterizing species, and their distribution in terms of site, depth, temperature and substratum type. These 31 biotopes provide consistent units for use in biological mapping efforts and assessments of representativeness in MPA network design. To facilitate the incorporation of these biotopes into existing deep-sea classification systems the biotopes have been assigned to broad substratum types. This is consistent with the use of substratum as a surrogate in many existing systems. Copyright © Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom 2010.",,33-68,,1,90,,J. Mar. Biol. Assoc.

Large reserves have potential to provide important refugia for fragmentation-sensitive species as they lack many aspects of habitat degradation associated with fragmented regions. However, large reserves often have a history of deleterious management practices that may affect the restoration of biological diversity. One significant symptom of habitat fragmentation and disturbance in Australia is the increased occurrence of the aggressive noisy miner (Manorina melanocephala). In Queensland, however, even large continuous areas of woodland appear to be dominated by the noisy miner. Aims.We examined the severity of this phenomenon by identifying the interactions between habitat structure, noisy miner abundance and avian assemblages in a private and a public conservation reserve in central Queensland. We investigated potential constraints on restoration of avian diversity including: (1) how changes in habitat structure as a result of grazing by feral animals and burning regimes affect bird assemblages; and (2) how the noisy miner impacts on avian assemblages in these unfragmented woodlands. Methods. Bird surveys and habitat assessments were conducted in 49 sites on three separate occasions. Fire history and intensity of grazing pressure were determined for each site with direct and indirect observations. Sampling for lerp from insects of the family Psyllidae was also undertaken during the survey periods. A Bayesian model averaging (BMA) approach was used to model avian response to each of the habitat variables. Key results. The noisy miner dominated most of the study area, reducing small passerine abundance and species richness. Noisy miners were advantaged where shrub cover was low and feral grazing impacts were evident. Disturbance factors including recent wildfire and heavy grazing strongly reduced small passerine bird richness and abundance. Conclusions. Reducing the abundance of this 'reverse keystone' species requires control of feral herbivore populations and modification of fire regimes to achieve a mosaic including patches with a dense shrub layer. Implications. Deleterious interactions with competitive native species, such as noisy miners, are obstacles to bird conservation not only in fragmented landscapes but also in large, continuous woodland areas. Land mangers of protected areas need to be aware of shifts in interactions among native species driven by habitat disturbance, which may ultimately affect conservation outcomes. © CSIRO 2009.",,617-626,,7,36,,Wildl.

The Blue Belt is now one of the world's largest enclosures of space for conservation, enclosing four million km2 of ocean in some of the most remote spaces on earth. To be economically feasible, the UK's bold conservation targets are integrated with wider tourism, fishing, and economic growth-motivated governance agendas. This commentary argues for a degrowth alternative to the Blue Belt's development. The goal of degrowth is not to prevent increases in Gross Domestic Product, nor is degrowth the equivalent to recession in a growth economy. Sustainable degrowth provides a conservation framework for ensuring a just transition from neoliberal forms of governance that places local well-being and welfare needs above the interests of state actors, private investors, and holiday makers. In the current context of the Blue Belt, the commentary considers three nascent degrowth concepts for improving things: 1) blue degrowth, 2) degrowth tourism, and 3) degrowth environmental governance. The paper argues that instead of separating the UK from other spaces where biodiversity targets are realised, these targets should be used as opportunities to reconcile the UK's colonial relationships with the territories, to build local capacity, and resilience. © 2020",,,,,196,,Ocean Coast.

As a result of global trading and Taiwan's recent membership in the World Trade Organization (WTO), capital investments in local traditional agriculture and aquaculture will further decline and cause greater recession in rural areas. To help address this growing problem, a strategic plan designed to conserve, restore, and properly utilize the wetlands of Taiwan is proposed. The primary goal is to establish a ""wetlands conservation greenway"", which combines wetland areas that currently merit designation as protected areas with adjacent areas that are subject to wise utilization (sustainable use) or that need to be rehabilitated. This plan will create a large corridor along the north-south axis of the west coast of Taiwan, which will connect the various types of wetlands to form a conservation greenway. The conservation greenway will help maintain or reestablish the continuity and integrity of diverse wetland areas and promote the development of general guidelines for the national management and regulation of wetlands. Within the greenway, three different types of wetland management areas are recognized: protected areas, ecological parks (for sustainable use), and restoration areas. Each type of wetland management area will have a distinct management approach based on its contribution to wetlands conservation goals. Other important elements of this strategy include: (1) a philosophy for managing coastal wetlands, (2) a delineation of the proposed greenway, its distinct areas, and approaches proposed for their respective management, (3) an implementation framework and action plans, and (4) an example of conservation proposal for a section of the coastal wetlands conservation greenway in Changhua County in west-central Taiwan. © 2004 Elsevier Ltd.

Ecotourism management has become an economic issue for tourism industry in conservation and development projects. The traditional approaches of biodiversity conservation concerning areas or national parks protection have been considered ineffective and unethical due to the externally imposed rules and regulations on local people. The establishment of national parks and other forms of protected areas in Taiwan in the past has regarded human activities in such areas as incompatible to the goals of natural resource conservation. Conflicts between the authority of national park and indigenous people were reported during the establishment of national parks in Taiwan, which resulted in the relocation and imposition of constraints on indigenous people. The development and implementation of ecotourism and integrated conservation development projects have been advocated throughout the study to gain local support. The aim of this study is to propose an approach for the issue of indigenous communities and local government ecotourism management based on the framework of Fuzzy Quality Function Deployment (FQFD), a methodology which has been successfully adopted in analyzing human's attitudes and intention. In particular, this paper addresses the issue of how to deploy the house of quality (HoQ) effectively and efficiently toward key dimensions of ecotourism and tourism guideline of the authority. Fuzzy logic is also adopted to deal with the ill-defined nature of the local residents' attitude preference required in the proposed HoQ. The case of Kinmen national park is presented to demonstrate the implementation of the proposed FQFD in ecotourism development. The effective and appropriate management directions for ecotourism development acquired by applying the proposed FQFD, thus, enables the national park authority to achieve an environmental, social, and politico-economic conditions. © 2010 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.

Redistributing divers to substituted natural reefs area is one management strategy recently used to solve the crisis. Lan et al. proposed the first deterministic fractal-based model to address the optimal design problem of habitat patterns in marine environments. Their model not only considered a finite project budget, but also applied the fractal dimension (FD), a commonly used index in landscape ecology, to assess the spatial complexity of the habitat. However, a problem with lots of landscape indices is that different spatial patterns can be realized for any single value of the respective index. The FD is no exception. Specifically, different fractal sets may share the same FD values but have different appearances. To select simulated artificial habitats patterns that meet the needs of decision makers, the overriding objective in this study is to enhance the performance of conventional fractal-based habitat model. Therefore, we introduce the index, lacunarity, as second stage index to characterize different spatial patterns that have the same FD value, since lacunarity has been verified to solve the problem effectively. Its application by ecological engineers and managers as a quantification tool for evaluating fractal-based artificial habitats is also demonstrated. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.",,Jun-14,,,53,,Ecol.

There is an urgent need to assess the ecological risk status of the wetland, especially when examining how the intensity of socio-economic growth, policy changes, and other variables affect land use and ecological risk changes. Methods: This study models the LULC pattern in the Liaohe Estuary National Nature Wetland Reserve under various future scenarios in 2000–2040 and develops a long-term Pressure-State-Response ecological risk assessment model based on the characteristics of the northern wetland environment in China, combined with the simulated multi-scenario PLUS model. Results: As the two most distinct vegetation types in the reserve area, Phragmites australis and Suaeda glauca presented decreasing trends of 59.7 ha/year and 9.0 ha/year in the economy development scenario (EDS), higher than 57.3 ha/year, 8.2 ha/year in the natural increase scenario (NIS), and 35.4 ha/year and 5.8 ha/year in the ecological protect scenario (EPS). From the core area to the buffer area to the outer experimental area, the slope rate of vegetation deterioration rises severely. In comparison to the scenario of EDS, the area of aquiculture and oil wells can be lowered by 11.4 ha/year and 1.1 ha/year with the application of ecological protection measures. Besides, under three scenarios, mean ecological risks are all showing an increasing trend from 2000 to 2040, which is generally higher in the EDS scenario than that in the NIS and EPS scenarios. The proportion of the high and very high level of ecological risk area continually increased from 28.8% to 40.4% from 2000 to 2040, which was mainly located in the south estuary and west urban areas. In addition, among the three protected areas, the ecological risk in the core area has a lower growth rate than that in the outer buffer zone and experimental zone. Discussion: Aiming for the development of Liaohe Estuary National Park, these findings provide quantitative guidance for protecting and restoring natural resources.

Over time, the residents of this area have acquired extensive knowledge regarding medicinal plants, owing to their close association with the abundant flora. Our study aims to document the medicinal plants used by the local community near the Guangxi Fangcheng Golden Camellias national nature reserve. We seek to investigate the unique regional properties, cultural significance, and potential connections between medicinal plants used in surrounding villages and those sold in markets. Methods: During 2019–2021, 96 informants, including 36 key informants, were interviewed in the study area. The snowball sampling method was used to select respondents from medicinal markets and villages. Local therapists were defaulted as key informants. A panel discussion was held on the protection and threat of medicinal plants and traditional knowledge. In this study, two quantitative indicators, relative frequency citation (RFC) and informant consensus factor (ICF), were used to analyze the traditional medicinal plants in the study area. Results: According to the investigation, a total of 396 species of medicinal plants belonging to 295 genera and 116 families were recorded. From the perspective of Lifeform, herbs accounted for 38.9%, followed by shrubs. Most of the medicinal parts are whole plant (120 species, 25.59%), branches and leaves (116 species, 24.73%), and roots (101 species, 21.54%). Medicinal bath is the most commonly used therapeutic method. Among the 13 therapeutic targets recorded, rheumatic drugs accounted for the highest proportion, followed by muscular system diseases and skin-related diseases, which are closely related to local climate and livelihood. ICF shows that the use of local medicinal plants and related knowledge is very diverse, so local people have more options for treating diseases. Melicope pteleifolia, Clerodendrum cyrtophyllum, Lygodium flexuosum, Elephantopus scaber, Artemisia argyi, Plantago asiatica, Centella asiatica, Grangea maderaspatana, and Liquidambar formosana have high RFC, which are closely connected to local people's daily lives and are potentially vital to them. The wild vegetation, mostly around the nature reserve, is the primary source of medicinal materials sold in the urban medicinal market. Urban areas have fewer varieties of medicinal plants compared to villages near protected areas. However, there is consistency in their usage and application. Conclusion: The medicinal plants used in the villages near the Golden Camellia Nature Reserve are diverse, and the relevant traditional knowledge is relatively well preserved. The collection of medicinal materials by local people is sustainable. This study suggests that the local government should also protect relevant traditional knowledge in the decision-making process. © 2023, The Author(s).",,,,1,19,,J.

Understanding how fauna respond to anthropogenic disturbances in protected areas is vital to guide management decisions and conservation efforts. Previous studies suggest that wildlife tends to avoid humans both spatially and temporally. However, little attention has been given to how wild pheasants respond to anthropogenic disturbances in protected areas. The Lady Amherst’s pheasant (Chrysolophus amherstiae) is a widely-distributed wild pheasant found in low-to mid-elevation environments across Southwest China, an area that has been perturbed by extensive human activity. This study assesses the Lady Amherst’s pheasant’s spatial and temporal responses to anthropogenic activity in a nature reserve in the subtropical forests of Southwest China. Methods: Between November 2017 and October 2018, we deployed 36 infrared camera traps to survey Lady Amherst’s pheasant behavior and the extent of anthropogenic disturbance (i.e., livestock grazing, the presence of domesticated dogs and cats, and human activity). We then assessed the spatial and temporal responses of pheasants to anthropogenic disturbances in breeding and non-breeding seasons. Results: Lady Amherst’s pheasant exhibited temporal, but not spatial, avoidance of anthropogenic disturbance. Daily activity of the pheasant peaked from 17:30 to 18:30, avoiding the most vigorous anthropogenic disturbance (occurring at approximately 12:00) in the non-breeding season. In the breeding season, daily activity levels increased rapidly and coincided more frequently with anthropogenic disturbance than during the non-breeding season. This may have been related to breeding activities such as territorial defense and mating displays. Furthermore, pheasants in more intensely disturbed sites were more likely to be active at dusk when human activity was low, suggesting that they adjust their behavior in response to anthropogenic disturbance. Conclusion: Lady Amherst’s pheasants tend to avoid anthropogenic disturbance in the non-breeding season, but reduce avoidance in the breeding season. Management measures such as limiting human activity, grazing, and the number of domestic dogs and cats in the breeding season may help support populations of this wild pheasant and other ground-breeding species in this nature reserve. © 2022, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

While one-third of the world’s reef corals are known to face heightened extinction risk from global climate and local impacts, prospects for the coral fauna in the South China Sea region amidst these threats remain poorly understood. In this study, we analyse coral species richness, rarity, and phylogenetic diversity among 16 reef areas in the region to estimate changes in species and evolutionary diversity during projected anthropogenic extinctions. Our results show that richness, rarity, and phylogenetic diversity differ considerably among reef areas in the region, and that their outcomes following projected extinctions cannot be predicted by species diversity alone. Although relative rarity and threat levels are high in species-rich areas such as West Malaysia and the Philippines, areas with fewer species such as northern Vietnam and Paracel Islands stand to lose disproportionately large amounts of phylogenetic diversity. Our study quantifies various biodiversity components of each reef area to inform conservation planners and better direct sparse resources to areas where they are needed most.

We investigated the distribution patterns and ecological risks of 16 priority polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the surface sediments of Shengsi Sea Area. A total of 18 surface sediments were collected from Shengsi Sea in June of 2017. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was applied for the PAHs quantitation and their composition analysis. The sources of the PAHs in the collected surface sediments were identified by the specific ratios of isomeric species and the principal component analysis. The potential ecological risks of the target PAHs in the sediments were evaluated based on the quality guideline and the single molecular threshold quality standard. The results showed that: (1) 14 PAHs are detected, except acenaphthylene and acenaphthene. In addition to the A1 site, the content of phenanthrene is the highest, followed by fluoranthene. The quantified 14 PAHs were mainly composed of 3 and 4 rings, accounting for 72.21% of the total PAH. The percent order of PAHs with different rings shows as follows: 3 rings > 4 rings > 5 rings > 2 rings > 6 rings. The total content of PAHs ranges fromed 46.38 to 196.36 ng/g and the mean value is 109.40 ng/g. The overall PAHs distribution pattern indicates that the PAHs content in the nearshore areas is higher and the PAHs contents in the offshore areas is lower. (2) Coal, diesel and biomass combustions are the main sources of the PAHs in the collected sediments, only a few sampling sites are affected by combustion and petroleum sources simultaneously. (3) The ecological risk assessments show that the PAH contents in all surface sediments are well below the effects range low (ERL) and the occasional effect (OEL) levels, suggesting their low potential ecological risks in the studied area. (4) Compared with other domestic and foreign regions, the PAHs contents in the surface sediments of the Shengsi Sea are low and the overall PAHs risk level will not cause negative impacts on the local fishery ecological environment. However, as one of our important 'blue granaries', it is still essential to strengthen the environmental monitoring of the terrestrial PAH emissions in the Shengsi Sea Area. © 2020, Editorial Board, Research of Environmental Sciences.

However, due to ineffective enforcement by governments, many MRs have been reduced to mere “paper parks” which fail to achieve conservation goals. This is especially true in countries such as China where compliance is low and resources dedicated to enforcement may be scarce. Privately managed marine reserves (PMMRs) may be effective in areas where government enforcement is lacking. To determine if PMMRs are a viable alternative strategy to protect coral reefs, we surveyed and compared fish assemblages and coral coverage in national MRs in Sanya, China to areas of reef privately leased to and managed by dive operators and hospitality industries. We found higher fish abundances and fish sizes in PMMR sites than in MR sites. However, while PMMRs are protected from fishing, other human impacts such as marine debris and illegal coral collection were evident in most tourist sites. Despite protection, long-term monitoring data of PMMRs revealed that in recent years, fish abundances have slightly recovered but species richness has not, indicating the need for a more comprehensive coral reef management plan. We strongly recommend coupling PMMRs with expertise supported regulations as an alternative coral reef management strategy in China. © 2016, Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.",,73-87,,1,46,,Ambio,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Netherlands,,,,"abundance; animal; Animals; Anthozoa; anthropogenic effect; biodiversity; Biodiversity; China; COMMUNITIES; conservation; CONSERVATION; Conservation of Natural Resources; coral reef; Coral Reefs; CORAL-REEF; Efficiency, Organizational; environmental protection; fish; FISH; Fishes; growth, development and aging; HABITAT; Hainan; HAINAN-ISLAND; legislation and jurisprudence; marine biology; Marine Biology; marine park; Marine protected areas; organization and management; overfishing; Pacific Ocean; private sector; Private Sector; Privately managed reserves; procedures; PROTECTED AREA NETWORKS; RECRUITMENT; Sanya; SANYA; SMALL-SCALE FISHERIES; South China Sea; species richness; trends",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We examined the spatial distribution of global tall forests based on the Global Canopy Height 2020 product. We defined global tall forests as areas with the average canopy height above 3 thresholds (20, 25, and 30 m). We quantified the spatial distribution and protection level of global tall forests in high-protection zones, where the 30 × 30 goals are being met or are within reach, and low-protection zones, where there is a low chance of reaching 30 × 30 goals. We quantified the protection level by computing the percentage of global tall forest area protected based on the 2017 World Database on Protected Areas. We also determined the global extent and protection level of undisturbed, mature, tall forests based on the 2020 Global Intact Forest Landscapes mask. In most cases, the percentage of protection decreased as forest height reached the top strata. In the low-protection zones, <30% of forests were protected in almost all tall forest strata. In countries such as Brazil, tall forests had a higher percentage of protection (consistently >30%) compared to forests of lower height, presenting a more effective conservation model than in countries such as the United States, where forest protection was almost uniformly <30% across height strata. Our results show an urgent need to target forest conservation in the greatest height strata, particularly in high-protection areas, where most global tall forests are found. Vegetation vertical structure can inform the decision-making process toward the 30 × 30 goals because it can be used to identify areas of high conservation value for biodiversity protection which also contribute to carbon sequestration. © 2023 The Authors.

It has been reportedthat the demand for sea use exceeds three-fold the available space in some areas. Thus, many countries have attempted toutilize marine spatial planning or ocean zoning to reduce these conflicts. Marine planning is a strategic guiding program thatefficiently organizes the use of marine space as well as the interactions between usages. This helps in balancing the demandfor marine economic development with the protection of marine ecosystems, and aims to fulfill both social and economicobjectives in an open and planned manner.In China, there has been intense conflicts on issues related to sea use and marinespace, in recent years. With rapid population growth and economic development, various irrational marine developmentactivities have adversely affected the marine environment, threatening both the environment and the future of the activitiesthat depend on it. For example, it has been reported that the ocean and coastal economy was worth over ?5000 billion in2012, which contributed to 9.6% of China’s total GDP. However, the most recent investigation indicated that the total areacovered by coastal wetlands, mangroves, and reefs have decreased by 57%, 73%, and 80%, respectively, compared withthat recorded in the 1950s. Furthermore, habitat loss and the degradation of ecosystem services also counteract the social-economic-natural ecosystem, which ultimately restricts sustainable societal and economic development. Therefore, there isan increasing urgency to adopt a more integrated approach to plan and manage the marine environment. Legislation, policy,and management tools, or a combination of these, are required in this process. Indeed, a series of marine zoning andplanning schemes, such as Marine Functional Zoning, Sea Use Planning, and the Marine Socioeconomic Development Planhave been implemented by the State Oceanic Administration of China over the past 20-30 years. Marine Functional Zoningis an important scheme that came into effect in 1989. This scheme divides the sea into eight functional zones based ongeographical and ecological features, natural resources, and the need for socioeconomic development. One exclusive, orseveral compatible sea use types, are permitted in any given functional zone. However, these marine plans are primarilybased on social or economic needs (e. g.,ports and fisheries). Moreover, coordination among marine plans remainsinadequate. Marine ecological red line zoning is a new method employed in marine planning and protection, which will beimplemented along the coast of China in the near future. However, systemic methods for marine ecological red line zoningare still lacking, and therefore, require further studies. This article provides a short historical overview and introduction tothe ecological red line concept, proposes a definition and basic principles for establishing marine ecological red lines, anddescribes a possible zoning framework using the Hainan Province as a case study. © 2015, Ecological Society of China.

Results: In the condition of the routine snail control with the molluscicide, the snails were eliminated in the main riverway of the Laobianmin River, but the snails still existed in the target protected area (tributaries of the river and irrigation areas); the snails were eliminated in the Panjia River and its irrigation areas; in the Bianmin River, the areas with snails dropped by 89.22% in the main river and still remained in the tributaries and irrigation areas after the project implementation. Conclusions: The sluice and overflow dam more contribute to control and eliminate snails in the project areas and the target protected areas in the rivers and estuaries connecting with the Yangtze River.

Evidence indicates, however, that large departures from this scheme exist among populations and individuals. Furthermore, for some populations there is virtually no information on migratory pathways and destinations. Such is the case of Chilean blue whales throughout the Eastern South Pacific; hence, the goal of this study was to assess its migratory behavior. Methods: Dedicated marine surveys and satellite tagging efforts were undertaken during the austral summer and early autumn on blue whale feeding grounds off Chilean Northern Patagonia (CNP) during 2013, 2015 and 2016. Positional data derived from satellite tags regarding movement patterns and behavior were analyzed using Bayesian switching first-difference correlated random walk models. Results: We instrumented 10 CNP blue whales with satellite transmitters and documented individual variation in departure time, northbound migratory routes and potential wintering grounds. The onset of migration occurred from mid/late austral autumn to well into the austral winter. Blue whales moved in various directions, but ultimately converged toward a general NW movement direction along a wide corridor exceeding 2,000 km. Area-Restricted Search behavior was exhibited within fjords and channels of CNP and also South of Galapagos Archipelago (GA) and northern Peru, but never during migration. Interestingly, dive profiles for one whale that reached GA showed a sharp and consistent increase in depth north of 5S and extreme deep dives of up to 330 m. Discussion: Information derived from satellite tagged blue whales in this study is the first of its kind off the Eastern Southern Pacific. Our results provide valuable information on their migratory timing, routes and behavior on their northbound migration, particularly regarding the varied migratory plasticity for this particular population. Our results also highlight the first record of two complete migratory paths between CNP and GA and strengthen the hypothesis that GA waters correspond to a potential wintering destination for CNP blue whales. We further hypothesize that this area might be selected because of its biological productivity, which could provide feeding opportunities during the breeding season. Our results suggest that special efforts should be put forward to identify blue whale critical areas and understand key behavioral aspects in order to provide the basis for their conservation on a regional context (i.e., reducing potential ship strike and promote Marine Protected Area (MPA) implementation in Chile, Ecuador and Peru). Indeed, we suggest joint blue whale conservation efforts at the regional level in order to identify and determine potential threats and impacts and, most importantly, implement prospective management actions. © Copyright 2018 Hucke-Gaete et al.",,,,4,2018,,PeerJ,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: PeerJ Inc.,,,,appetitive behavior; Article; Balaenoptera musculus; BALAENOPTERA-MUSCULUS; BEHAVIOR; biogeography; blue whale; Chile; Chiloense Ecoregion; diving; Ecuador; Habitat use; HUMPBACK WHALES; INDIVIDUAL VARIATION; International management; Marine conservation; MEGAPTERA-NOVAEANGLIAE; Migration; MODELS; Movement ecology; MOVEMENTS; nonhuman; Pacific Ocean; population migration; satellite imagery; Satellite telemetry; seasonal variation; SEASONALITY; SEX; spatial autocorrelation analysis; State space models; telephone telemetry; WEST-COAST,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, loss of cocoa to wildlife perceived to come from forest protected areas can result in lower profits for local people, reduced livelihood benefits from development projects and negative perceptions of conservation leading to reduced conservation impacts. We collected and analysed data on cocoa pod numbers and damage by animals over 2 months of the cocoa growing season, coinciding with peak harvesting season, from 39 plots at 3 forest edge communities around Gola Rainforest National Park, Sierra Leone. We estimate that 20% of pods across the cocoa plantations studied were damaged by wildlife, though there was high spatial variation. Of damaged pods where the animal group responsible could be identified, 87.2% of the damage was by monkeys, 11.1% by rats or squirrels and 1.7% by chimpanzees. Binomial mixed modelling of the proportion of pods damaged by wildlife indicated that this was higher closer to settlements and where pod density was lower. This indicates that the species causing the most damage in this system are disturbance-tolerant generalists which are not dependent on the protected forest, that mitigation measures should be concentrated where damage is highest, particularly close to settlements, and that increasing cocoa yield in these communities could offset damage by wildlife and therefore still be a viable option for, for example, REDD+ projects, even where crop raiding is common. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.",,236-243,,,265,,Agric.

It cannot be achieved through enforcement alone but needs, above all, interactions with stakeholders in which they perceive their interests and livelihoods are valued as integral to the decision process: alongside conservation outcomes, rather than as secondary to such outcomes. This can only be delivered locally, but general impediments to this outcome originate with structural and process features of global and national policy. More devolved approaches, from international to national and from national to local, are advocated as a basis for ameliorating current MPA policy and process deficits. These deficits originate with international area targets which provoke politically expedient designations, which in turn engender local scepticism on the validity of stakeholder engagement. Nevertheless devolved approaches do need to be positioned in the context of international and national frameworks in order to ensure they address growing societal concerns about the marine environment As an alternative to arbitrary international area targets, a general global strategy for marine conservation is advocated in which MPAs play a more considered role alongside many other measures in such a way as to be applicable to 100% of the marine realm. In a more genuinely devolved system, enhanced site level scientific programmes would serve informed MPA management and there would be less need to generalise sometimes questionable MPA ‘orthodoxies’. Finally the traditional structural and disciplinary distinctions between conservation science and fisheries science should be broken down, in favour of a unified science of marine conservation. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd.

Consequently the designation and management of an individual MPA typically plays out in microcosm the general challenge of sustainable development in the marine environment. Some universally relevant questions relating to four commonly held defining attributes of MPAs are articulated. However, while many of the questions are universal, in practice the answers vary greatly. Consequently there are few MPAs which would not provide an informative case study elucidating the dynamics at the intersection between science, policy and management in the marine realm. The papers in this collection exemplify a range of key issues across this spectrum of disciplines. In practice most contentious issues relate to the balance within MPAs between environmental and socio-economic considerations, not least relating to fishing. In this respect greater attention in MPA management plans, to the economic benefits of MPAs for local communities is encouraged. However we also recognise that glib assertions that a secure sustainable balance between conservation and exploitation can be established in practice, typically with few resources in a largely unseen and often data-poor environment, may sometimes be politically expedient but scientifically questionable. Yet it is ultimately the work of all those involved directly with MPAs to collectively achieve the task of transforming the rhetoric of marine conservation policy into a successful reality on the ground and we commend the authors of this collection for their efforts to achieve that goal. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,215-218,,,215,,Estuar.

Sea urchins and herbivorous fishes (scrapers, grazers, browsers) are the dominant herbivores in Kenya's fringing coral reef and their grazing influences coral-macroalgal dynamics and dominance. Using experimental substrata and grazer exclusions, we tested the hypothesis that herbivores differentially affect algal composition and succession using 3 levels of fisheries management: fished reefs, community-managed closures (<10 yr old, <0.5 km2), and government-managed closures (20 to 40 yr old, 5 to 10 km2). In fished reefs and government closures, herbivores facilitated maintenance of early successional algal species, such as turfs, associated with sea urchins in the former and scraping fishes in the latter. Crustose coralline algae were only abundant in government closures, and video recordings showed that fish grazing was greatest at these sites, most notably for parrotfishes (scrapers). A combination of sea urchins and small grazing and detritivorous fishes was present in community closures, which allowed macroalgae to quickly develop from turf into early then late successional stages. These reefs may represent an intermediate or transitional system of herbivore dominance characterized by macroalgae. Consequently, reefs in heavily fished seascapes initially protected from fishing may require additional management efforts to facilitate the recovery of larger-bodied scraping fishes, including bans on capturing parrotfishes and restricting gear (e.g. spearguns) that target these species. © Inter-Research 2014.",,119-132,,,504,,Mar.

Location: High Arctic, North of 60° latitude. Methods: The predicted distributions of 27 species of Arctic seabirds were combined to create a seabird biodiversity map. The GIS layers created were based on peer-reviewed model outputs which were calculated using the random forest algorithm and supplemented with ISO standardized metadata for quality assurance. We have overlain the species diversity and occurrence maps with known shipping lanes and areas of human activities in the Arctic to highlight areas of potential human conflict with pelagic seabirds. Results: Entry points to the Arctic Basin for example Baffin Bay, Davis Strait, Chukchi Sea, Greenland Sea and Norwegian Sea are specific conflict zones with mean number of species occurring within 20 km of shipping zones ranging from 17 to 19 (63-70% of modelled species). We also show that these are areas of the highest intensity of human activities in the Arctic (fishing, ship traffic and accident rates). Main conclusion: These Arctic seabird biodiversity maps can be used to make decisions which take into account ecology and socio-economy (e.g. Marxan analysis and marine protected areas MPAs) and for ecological/economic studies which can help to create a pro-active management scheme. This is particularly important due to the future increase in human impacts in the Arctic (i.e. fishing, tourism and especially shipping). By improving upon these models and further examination into the interactions between seabirds and humans in the Arctic, we can guide important policy decisions to protect Arctic biodiversity. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,478-490,,4,20,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,algorithm; Arctic Ocean; Arctic seabirds; Arctic shipping routes; assessment method; biodiversity; conservation management; ecological modeling; GIS; GIS modelling; human activity; Human impact; marine park; population distribution; prioritization; seabird; standardization,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This study, therefore, is aimed at the spatiotemporal analysis of LULC dynamics and their implications for the greenhouse gas emissions of the Adama district of Ethiopia. The dry season Landsat image Thematic Mapper (TM) of 1986, Enhanced Thematic Mapper (ETM) of 2000, and Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) of 2014 were downloaded from the United States Geological Survey Global Visualization Viewer Website and employed. The hybrid classification approach was performed after the preprocessing of the image. Moreover, observations, key informant interviews, and focus group discussions were used. The analysis was carried out using the image data and survey data. The result indicates that agricultural land and shrub and bush lands covered 80.98%, 76.75%, and 74.42% of the study area during 1986, 2000, and 2014, respectively. Although there were differences in the magnitudes and rates of change during the considered years, the LULC classification results of this study indicated that most natural environments are converted to human-dominated environments, which can be attributed to human-induced activities. Due to this conversion, environmental degradation is aggravated, which again paves the way for the increased concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. The study concludes that, largely as a result of interventions from the communities living in the area, the study area is being transformed from the natural ecosystem to a managed environment. Hence, the practices of smallholder farmers with respect to protected areas, afforestation, and reforestation must be strengthened and supported by an integrated policy framework.

In Taiwan, most of MPAs were established as aquatic organism and fishery resource conservation zones (FCZs), such as mud shrimp (Austinogebia edulis) protection since 2006, which we used as a study case. However, comprehensive review has yet conducted to determine whether management objectives are being achieved. We therefore examined the FCZs management effectiveness by conducting a 4 year (2017–2020) field survey of mud shrimp density in the tidal flat and MPA institution in Taiwan. The mud shrimp density obtained from both historical record in references and our observations was analyzed using geographic information systems to determine their spatial distribution within and around the designated FCZs. The results indicate that mud shrimp density is dominant outside the protected zones, which might be related to habitat changes over time. Moreover, the review of MPA governance in Taiwan indicated that FCZs management lack regular financial support and regular examination of management plan. An operational framework is suggested to improve the sustainable management of conservation zones decision-making that comprises four steps: (1) Partnerships with MPA commitment authorities and non-government organizations, specifically, regional fisheries associations; (2) plan regular financial support and fundraise; (3) conduct long-term monitoring programs; and (4) create a coordination platform with stakeholders to evaluate the management plan and/or induce necessary adjustments.

In spite of its clear importance, the marine environment is subject to huge pressure from anthropogenic sources. These pressures arise from inter alia the overexploitation of marine species, nutrient loading from land-based agriculture, underwater noise, the introduction of invasive species, and increasing oceanic acidification and habitat degradation. The threats are frequently interlinked. Further, in terms of biodiversity loss, Lotze et al. (2006) estimate that the human exploitation of marine species is responsible for 96% of species extinctions. The ecosystem based approach (EBA) is a managed response to these anthropogenic impacts on marine ecosystems. The aim of the EBA is to facilitate the protection, recovery, and sustainable use of marine ecosystems, applying a multisector approach. Any management approach is likely to entail trade-offs, in the sense that there are some stakeholders who will realize net benefits from the management intervention and others that will incur net losses. There are winners and losers even within a body of stakeholders (e.g. fishermen). Further, one significant broad stakeholder group is ‘wider society’, and it is important to capture broader social welfare changes arising from any management intervention. There is considerable variability in the extent to which the benefits and costs arising from applying the EBA are measurable, and also the extent to which they can be valued in monetary terms. For instance, changes in fish stocks have a relatively direct market value, whereas other benefits (such as a feeling of wellbeing arising from the aesthetics of the marine landscape) are much less tangible. © UNESCO 2015.",,146-173,,,,,,,,,,,Cambridge University Press,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Ocean Sustainability in the 21st Century DOI: 10.1017/CBO9781316164624.010,,,,Anthropogenic impacts; Anthropogenic sources; Biodiversity; Biogeochemical cycle; Biogeochemistry; Commerce; Conservation; Earth (planet); Ecology; Economic and social effects; Ecosystem-based management; Ecosystems; Habitat degradation; Management interventions; Marine engineering; Marine protected area; Quality maintenances; Water quality,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Populations, or stocks, are at or well below their conservation reference points. The lack of recovery has been linked to ongoing fishing mortality (targeted, bycatch), changes to life history (reductions in age and size at maturity, truncations in age and size structure), and increased natural mortality. Emergent and demographic Allee effects, coupled with altered interspecific interactions, render questionable the presumption that the recovery of heavily depleted populations can be reliably forecasted by population dynamical behaviour during decline. Contrary to international commitments and inconsistent with fishery rebuilding plans elsewhere, cod recovery plans exclude target and limit reference points, recovery timelines, and harvest control rules. We suggest that the long-term biodiversity, social, and economic benefits associated with cod recovery can be realised by novel changes, including quantitatively responsible recovery plans based on science-determined reference points, new or revised legislation, integrated management strategies, strengthened sustainable seafood certification practices, expansion of marine spatial planning and protected areas, and novel financial incentives for investment in long-term, sustainable fisheries.",,386-400,,5,89,,Can.

The suitability of hydrodynamic modeling for drift simulations of early life stages of Baltic cod up to the pelagic juvenile stage was validated by comparing model simulations with the catch distribution from a survey targeting pelagic juveniles, and mortality rates and hatch date distributions of pelagic and demersal juveniles were estimated. Hatch dates and hatch locations of juvenile survivors showed distinct patterns which did not agree well with the abundance and spatial distribution of eggs, suggesting marked spatio-temporal differences in larval survival. The good agreement of the spatio-temporal origin of survivors from this field investigation with previous modeling studies on the survival chances of early-stage larvae and with general spatio-temporal patterns of larval prey availability suggests that differences in survival are related to food availability during the early larval stage.

To address this need, we applied previously developed, yet currently underused, vessel tracking methods based on Automatic Identification System (AIS) and aerial surveillance (“flyovers”) to Canada's Pacific marine conservation areas from 2012 to 2019. We used satellite and terrestrial-based AIS receivers and flyover-based visual observations to estimate illegal and legal fishing activity after 185 conservation area (CA) enactments (i.e., static, geographically defined areas with fishing regulations). We compared the effectiveness in detecting fishing activity between the AIS- and flyover-based methods, and used the latter to determine that 93% of vessels were actively fishing in CAs without AIS. The AIS-based method still detected 3303 h of fishing in CAs after enactment, and both methods estimated 22%–24% of fishing activity in CAs was illegal. The application of these methods also shed light on the complexity of fishing regulations across CAs (i.e., varying and CA-specific restrictions). This highlighted the need to better align vessel tracking fishing gear classifications with CA regulation specifications, and conversely to simplify regulations (e.g., no-take), for more accurate monitoring and evaluation moving forward. © 2023 The Authors.

Nonindigenous species and climate change are critical ecosystem stressors that need greater attention in the context of spatial planning and management of protected areas. Risk of invasion into protected areas needs to be quantified under current and projected climate conditions in conjunction with prioritization of key vectors and vulnerable areas to enable development of effective management strategies. We assessed the likelihood of invasion across networks of marine protected areas (MPAs) to determine how invaded MPAs may compromise MPA networks by sharing nonindigenous species. We evaluated invasion risk in 83 MPAs along Canada's Pacific coast for eight nonindigenous species based on environmental suitability under current and future (average conditions from 2041 to 2070) climate conditions and association with shipping and boating pathways. We applied species distribution models and network analysis of vessel tracking data for 805 vessels in 2016 that connected MPAs. The probability of occurrence within MPAs and the proportion of MPA area that is suitable to the modelled species significantly increased under future climate conditions, with six species reaching over 90% predicted occurrence across MPAs and over 70% of suitable area within MPAs. Vessel traffic created four network clusters of 61 highly connected MPAs that spanned the coastline. Occupancy of over 90% of the MPAs within the clusters was predicted for most species. Synthesis and applications. Our results indicate a high likelihood of marine protected area (MPA) network invasion based on current and future environmental conditions and vectors of spread, and the potential for extensive nonindigenous species distributions within MPAs. Our approach highlights how interacting stressors can exacerbate MPA susceptibility to nonindigenous species, adding further challenges for protected area management. Management planning that invests in understanding connectivity and vector processes (human behaviours) is more likely to derive effective policies to stem the flow of nonindigenous species under both current and future conditions. In particular, biosecurity measures including vessel biofouling regulations and MPA- and MPA network-specific plans for prevention, monitoring and mitigation of nonindigenous species are needed. © 2020 Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada.

The goals were to establish baseline indicators for the integrity of forest communities and rivers. Based on satellite image classification and ground surveys, the 2790 km2 watershed had 1570 km2 of forest in 1997, 1080 km2 of which was in national parks and nature monuments. Most of the 490 km2 of forest not currently in protected areas lies along the west bank of the Canal, and its management status after the year 2000 turnover of the Canal from the U.S. to Panama remains uncertain. In forest plots designed to monitor forest diversity and change, a total of 963 woody plant species were identified and mapped. We estimate there are a total of 850-1000 woody species in forests of the Canal corridor. Forests of the wetter upper reaches of the watershed are distinct in species composition from the Canal corridor, and have considerably higher diversity and many unknown species. These remote areas are extensively forested, poorly explored, and harbor an estimated 1400-2200 woody species. Vertebrate monitoring programs were also initiated, focusing on species threatened by hunting and forest fragmentation. Large mammals are heavily hunted in most forests of Canal corridor, and there was clear evidence that mammal density is greatly reduced in hunted areas and that this affects seed predation and dispersal. The human population of the watershed was 113 000 in 1990, and grew by nearly 4% per year from 1980 to 1990. Much of this growth was in a small region of the watershed on the outskirts of Panama City, but even rural areas, including villages near and within national parks, grew by 2% per year. There is no sewage treatment in the watershed, and many towns have no trash collection, thus streams near large towns are heavily polluted. Analyses of sediment loads in rivers throughout the watershed did not indicate that erosion has been increasing as a result of deforestation, rather, erosion seems to be driven largely by total rainfall and heavy rainfall events that cause landslides. Still, models suggest that large-scale deforestation would increase landslide frequency, and failure to detect increases in erosion could be due to the gradual deforestation rate and the short time period over which data are available. A study of runoff showed deforestation increased the amount of water from rainfall that passed directly into streams. As a result, dry season flow was reduced in a deforested catchment relative to a forested one. Currently, the Panama Canal watershed has extensive forest areas and streams relatively unaffected by humans. But impacts of hunting and pollution near towns are clear, and the burgeoning population will exacerbate these impacts in the next few decades. Changes in policies regarding forest protection and pollution control are necessary.",,65-95,,1,80,,Environ. Monit.

For E. cavolini, the necrosis significantly increased between 2004 and 2019 (from 9.66% to 25.63% of injured colonies and from 0.24% to 4.75% of dead colonies, respectively). For P. clavata, the population was particularly damaged in 2004 with 14.81% of dead colonies. While necrosis significantly decreased between 2004 and 2014, a significant increase is observed between 2014 and 2019 (from 1.92% to 4.44% of dead colonies). In addition, it appears that large size colonies are more affected by necrosis, and reciprocally. Our main hypothesis is that these changes could be related to the consequences of climate change. Seawater temperature recorded on the same site, over a period of 32 years, shows a significant increase of the number of marine heat waves (MHWs) per year, especially since 2008. In addition, the study of the temperature changes along depth showed fewer and shorter MHWs in deep waters. Disturbance levels observed in these two gorgonian species (shift in population structure, temporal development of necrosis) are discussed in relation to past and present human-induced threats. The quantitative information obtained in this study provides a data baseline precious for future long-term monitoring, appearing as particularly relevant in a context of climate change.",,,,,186,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000861562100003,,,,,,,ALGA CAULERPA-RACEMOSA; BENTHIC SUSPENSION FEEDERS; Climate change; CORALLIGENOUS ASSEMBLAGES; CORALLIUM-RUBRUM; Gorgonians; LIFE-HISTORY; LONG-TERM; Marine heat wave; MARINE PROTECTED AREA; MASS MORTALITY EVENT; Mediterranean sea; POPULATION-DYNAMICS; SECONDARY PRODUCTION; Temperature,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Despite its significant impact on marine resources and ecosystems, recreational fishing has received less attention in research than commercial fishing.MethodsThis study focuses on marine recreational fishing in Balagne (Corsica, France, northwestern Mediterranean). It presents, for the first time in this region, valuable data on the population size of recreational fishers; their sociological profiles; fishing habits; and, specifically, catch data related to boat fishing.ResultThrough an extensive telephone survey involving 387 households, we estimated that recreational fishers constitutes 10.2% of the population, with the majority being men (84.84%). The average age varies significantly based on the type of fishing practiced: 38.4 years for spearfishing, 50.2 years for shore fishing, and 56.4 years for boat fishing. Additionally, the study found that shore fishers declare practicing no-kill fishing more frequently than do boat fishers (90.00% and 56.67%, respectively). Photographic protocol, fishing logbooks, and boarding provided data on catch composition and fishing characteristics. In the case of boat fishers, catches per unit of effort, estimated from boarding data, were found to be 1.03 +/- 1.51 individuals/h/fisher and 222.32 +/- 318.94 g/h/fisher. Despite the great diversity among the species caught (49 species), Comber Serranus cabrilla, Blackspot Seabream Pagellus bogaraveo, Black Seabream Spondyliosoma cantharus, and Painted Comber Serranus scriba are overly represented in number among the species of marine fish caught by boat fishers and Common Dentex Dentex dentex, Greater Amberjack Seriola dumerili, Dolphinfish Coryphaena hippurus, and Bluefin Tuna Thunnus thynnus are overly represented in weight.

As Comorian populations depend on forest resources for subsistence, establishing relevant conservation strategies for their sustainable management requires the consideration of multiple stakeholders' perspectives toward biodiversity and habitat conservation. To better understand the relationships between humans and nature; how comorian people use natural resource and the relevance of a protected area for long-term biodiversity conservation, we used Q-methodology to assess local people's perceptions regarding biodiversity and conservation actions. Three discourses are identified during analysis: ""Pro-environment discourse"", ""Keeping things as usual"" and ""Social and environmental concerns"". According to the results, employed respondents, were favorable to long-term forest and biodiversity conservation. In contrast, unemployed respondents were in favor of more immediate benefits while unemployed but educated respondents were in favor to both long-term forest conservation and immediate benefits from forests. This suggests that poverty and a lack of access to basic services is associated with overharvesting of natural resources by rural people. These results suggest that biodiversity conservation of the Comoros archipelagos may benefit for plan aiming at (1) developing tourism and maintaining sustainable production of crops and livestock that could allow enhancing livelihoods and well-being of all social groups, (2) developing projects such as local markets that could allow villagers to sell agricultural productions, (3) setting up awareness campaign for tree-planting and reforestation.

It causes a great economic loss for subsistence communities hindering efforts in conservation endeavors. Hamadryas baboons (Papio hamadryas) occur both in the lowland and highland ecosystems of Ethiopia. The species is known for its crop foraging behavior across its ranges. However, little is known about human-hamadryas baboon interactions manifested in crop foraging in the Ethiopian highlands. Thus, this study aimed to provide data on the magnitude of hamadryas baboon conflict with the local community in and around Borena-Sayint National Park (BSNP), northern Ethiopia. We collected data from January to July 2018 using a questionnaire survey of sample households in the surrounding local communities. We analyzed the attitude and perception of the local people towards hamadryas baboons using descriptive statistics. Local people estimated that hamadryas baboons damaged 120.2 kg of crops/household/year in and around BSNP. The species caused the highest damage to wheat (45.1 kg), barley (25.5 kg), potato (24.7 kg) and maize (20.1 kg) per household per year. The respondents reported that hamadryas baboons, from all incidents of crop foraging, caused the highest proportion of damage during the vegetative (48.2%) and harvesting (33.9%) stages of the cultivated foods. Local people reported that crop foraging was significantly greater during the dry season than in the wet season. Respondents mainly depend on guarding (43.6%) and shouting (32.8%) to prevent their cultivated crops from the visit of hamadryas baboons. About 12% of the respondents who experienced crop damage killed hamadryas baboons in retaliation. The intense interaction between hamadryas baboons and humans may pose a serious threat to the survival of the species unless appropriate management actions are taken. The findings of this study are crucial for developing management plans and implementing successful conservation strategies. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,44,,Glob. Ecol.

Ethnographic research conducted in Ponta Negra, a small coastal community located at the heart of the Juatinga Ecological Reserve (Paraty, Rio de Janeiro State), as well as a review of key legislation, management plans and tourism materials form the empirical basis of this research. First, we offer a critical examination of the historical origin of the term Caiçara. We then compare contradictory ideas of Caiçara produced by Brazilian environmental legislation and the tourism industry. While the environmental legislation has characterised the Caiçara as fallen angels who are no longer conservation allies, the tourism industry has profited by selling them as ecologically noble savages who still live in harmony with the environment. Our analysis shows how Ponta Negra people have become objects of powerful discourses of nature that hinder the recognition of their collective rights and weaken their position to negotiate for their own desires and aspirations related to their identity and livelihoods. © 2015 Taylor & Francis.",,1132-1150,,9,21,,Local Environ.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Routledge,,,,Ara; Atlantic Coast [Brazil]; Atlantic Coast [South America]; Atlantic Forest; Atlantic Forest Coast; biodiversity; Brazil; Caiçara; constructed natures; ecotourism; environmental issue; environmental justice; environmental legislation; environmental management; governance approach; political ecology; protected area; protected areas,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The UNESCO's Biosphere Reserve zoning scheme is a suitable context to address these trade-offs by considering multiple management zones that aim to minimise conflicts between management objectives. Moreover, in Mediterranean ecosystems, management and planning also needs to consider drivers of landscape dynamics such as wildfires and traditional farming and forestry practices that have historically shaped landscapes and the biodiversity they host. In this study, we applied a conservation planning approach to prioritise the allocation of management zones under future landscape and climate scenarios. We tested different landscape management scenarios reflecting the outcomes of climate-smart and fire-smart policies. We projected the expected landscape dynamics and associated changes on the distribution of 207 vertebrate species, 4 ES and fire hazard under each scenario. We used Marxan with Zones to allocate three management zones, replicating the Biosphere Reserves zoning scheme (“Core area”, “Buffer zone” and “Transition area”) to address the various management objectives within the Biosphere Reserve. Our results show that to promote ES supply and biodiversity conservation, while also minimising fire hazard, the reserve will need to: i) Redefine its zoning, especially regarding Core Areas, which need a considerable expansion to help mitigate changes in biodiversity and accommodate ES supply under expected changes in climate and species distribution. ii) Revisit current management policies that will result in encroached landscapes prone to high intensity, uncontrollable wildfires with the potential to heavily damage ecosystems and compromise the supply of ES. Our results support that both climate- and fire-smart policies in the Meseta Ibérica can help develop multifunctional landscapes that help mitigate and adapt to climate change and ensure the best possible maintenance of biodiversity and ES supply under uncertain future climate conditions. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,322,,J.

Ultimately the BAP has been integrated into Shell Gabon's Environmental Management System aiming at enforcing operating procedures on biodiversity aspects. Examples might include reducing the number of roads built and their width; speed controls; limiting the size of platform constructions and use of existing platforms wherever possible for drilling; prohibition of hunting, fishing and transporting bush meat and weapons in production areas; promoting anti-poaching activities together with the Government authorities, local NGOs' and one long lasting partner, the Smithsonian Institute.

However, not all MPAs are equal in their design and management; therefore, it is important to understand how different levels of protection affect the fish communities. In the present study, the shallow reef-area fishes of seven areas in Fernando de Noronha archipelago (north-eastern Brazil) with dissimilar habitat characteristics and different levels of environmental protection (no-take MPA and MPA) were compared. In total, 140 visual censuses were performed, in which 12958 fishes of 27 families and 50 species were recorded. Differences were recorded between no-take MPAs and MPAs in the benthic composition, abiotic data and fish-community structure and composition. These differences were associated with a higher diversity, richness, density of larger fishes and top target fish families, and biomass per census (nearly 2-fold higher in the no-take MPA). Our findings suggested that the differences in the ichthyofauna were probably more related to the different levels of protection than to dissimilarities in the habitat structure among areas, and that the local no-take MPA (National Marine Park of Fernando de Noronha) is effective in maintaining the shallow reef-area fish communities healthy and diverse. © CSIRO 2017.",,1303-1316,,7,68,,Mar.

Yet, in spite of their economic and ecological importance, Opuntia species remain poorly studied and protected in México. Many of the species are sparsely but widely distributed across the landscape and are subject to a variety of human uses, so devising implementable conservation plans for them presents formidable difficulties. Multi-criteria analysis can be used to design a spatially coherent conservation area network while permitting sustainable human usage. Methods and Findings: Species distribution models were created for 60 Opuntia species using MaxEnt. Targets of representation within conservation area networks were assigned at 100% for the geographically rarest species and 10% for the most common ones. Three different conservation plans were developed to represent the species within these networks using total area, shape, and connectivity as relevant criteria. Multi-criteria analysis and a metaheuristic adaptive tabu search algorithm were used to search for optimal solutions. The plans were built on the existing protected areas of México and prioritized additional areas for management for the persistence of Opuntia species. All plans required around one-third of México's total area to be prioritized for attention for Opuntia conservation, underscoring the implausibility of Opuntia conservation through traditional land reservation. Tabu search turned out to be both computationally tractable and easily implementable for search problems of this kind. Conclusions: Opuntia conservation in México require the management of large areas of land for multiple uses. The multi-criteria analyses identified priority areas and organized them in large contiguous blocks that can be effectively managed. A high level of connectivity was established among the prioritized areas resulting in the enhancement of possible modes of plant dispersal as well as only a small number of blocks that would be recommended for conservation management. © 2012 Illoldi-Rangel et al.",,,,5,7,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,algorithm; Algorithms; article; biodiversity; Biodiversity; classification; conservation biology; Conservation of Natural Resources; environmental management; environmental planning; environmental protection; geography; Geography; human; Humans; landscape ecology; methodology; Mexico; nonhuman; Opuntia; Opuntia cacti; rare species; species conservation; species difference; species distribution; species diversity; Species Specificity; statistics,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The loss of coastal ecosystems, among other problems, leads to the loss of natural capacity for flood mitigation and coastal erosion. Since a considerable share of the coastal population is living in flood-prone areas, the loss of capacity of the ecosystems to mitigate the impacts of floods and coastal erosion can increase the vulnerability to natural hazards such as storm surges, hurricanes and typhoons. This is especially relevant in a context of increasing sea-level rise and intensity and frequency of extreme weather events, both increasing the risk to lose lives and assets. Coastal flood mitigation has been done primarily through the use of hard grey infrastructures. However, these types of structures can have long-term impacts on coastal ecosystems, require continuous maintenance and, in the face of extreme events, may represent an inefficient way to prevent coastal degradation. This called the attention of scientists and decision-makers towards the role of nature to mitigate the impacts of coastal floods through nature-based solutions (NBS). NBS, under the framework of ecosystem-based management, are interventions that aim to reduce the impacts of coastal flooding and erosion and simultaneously enhance ecosystems, biodiversity and natural resources. NBS can use (1) natural solutions (e.g. marine protected areas), (2) soft engineering and ecological restoration (e.g. beach nourishment) and (3) hybrid solutions, which integrate natural and grey infrastructures. Recently, NBS are gaining popularity and are part of coastal management strategies in many countries. Despite their efficiency, it is still a new practice, and therefore concerns are raised regarding their environmental and anthropogenic impacts. Also, there are some drawbacks and pitfalls that need to be overcome to increase NBS implementation. In this chapter we make an overview on the need for NBS for coastal flood mitigation, its implementation in a worldwide context, their impacts on the coastal social ecological economics systems, drawbacks and opportunities to improve their acceptance. © 2020, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,35-58,,,107,,,,,,,,Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Handb.

This study investigates the cultural ecosystem services provided by a 40 ha coastal wetland in the Gulf of Manfredonia, southern Italy, within the Gargano National Park. By integrating an ecological survey of the bird community with a social survey of visitors to the King’s Lagoon Nature Reserve, the content of tailored planning strategies and management tools for the conservation of wetland biodiversity was developed. An ecological analysis of the bird community was carried out on the assumption that it could be representative of the total biodiversity observed in the wetland. On the other hand, a questionnaire was used to collect information from visitors to the reserve, highlighting the aspects of the wetland that they found most interesting and attractive according to their judgement and beliefs, and thus targeting a specific set of cultural ecological services. The two approaches were then combined to develop a comprehensive strategy. The bird community analysis led to the identification of the mixed biotope category (a combination of wetlands, aquatic/riparian ecosystems, semi-natural vegetated areas, and meadows together with agricultural areas) as the reference biotope for prioritizing wetland management. The Ardeidae family was chosen as a bird flagship group because of its high visibility, ease of identification, attractiveness to visitors, wide local distribution, and fairly constant presence in the study area throughout the year. Flagship species have a dual function: to guide conservation measures and actions by wetland managers, and to attract the interest, curiosity and active participation of potential visitors to the wetland. Based on the results, a list of guidelines for improving the birds’ habitats and providing them with resources (feeding, breeding, shelter, roosting, etc.) has been proposed. The aim of these measures is to optimize the presence and abundance of Ardeidae as flagship species, thereby preserving the biodiversity heritage in general and increasing the provision of cultural ecosystem services in the wetland. The resulting dynamic interplay ensures that both natural and cultural resources are fully and appropriately valued, protected, and maintained for the benefit of present and future generations. © 2024 by the authors.",,,,23,16,,Sustainability,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,abundance; Adriatic Sea; biodiversity; birds; coastal wetland; conservation planning; cultural ecosystem services (CESs); ecosystem service; flagship species; Foggia; Gargano National Park; Gulf of Manfredonia; Italy; Mediterranean Sea; native species; nature conservation; nature reserve visitors; participatory approach; prioritization; protected area; Puglia; questionnaire survey; strategic approach; wetland,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Although designated a global 'biodiversity hotspot', there have been conflicting reports on the nature of the island's forest decline to date. Differences in forest estimates have resulted from the limited temporal scales of previous studies, non-standardized definitions of forest and the incongruences of satellite data between different investigations. The aim of this study was to identify 'hotspots' of vegetation change within Madagascar to assist national biodiversity conservation planning. We used the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index derived from 14 consecutive years of satellite data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer, to identify areas within the island's evergreen forests, which have undergone statistically significant vegetation change, either loss or gain, throughout the study period. Our results show that vegetation cover within the island's forest areas is highly dynamic, with vegetation loss and gain occurring throughout the study period. Most changes were located in the northern part of the island and in the central portion of the western boundary of the eastern evergreen forest belt.

This work represents one of a few cases of predictive (fine-scale) habitats distribution map obtained through an integrated semi-automatic approach based on bathymetry, backscatter, seismic profiles, video, and sampling data. The used method has permitted the identification of nine morphological zones, four backscatter facies, and four benthic habitats distributed on the Zannone seafloor (western Pontine Archipelago; Tyrrhenian Sea). In particular, the finding of widespread sensitive habitats (i.e. coralligenous assemblages and rhodolith beds) reveals as the marine area off the western Pontine Archipelago (Tyrrhenian Sea) is highly suitable for their development (distance from the mainland, lack of river mouths), confirming the relevant ecological value of the Zannone area.

Despite European-level legal protection of cetaceans, and Scottish legislation for the protection of seals at designated haul-out sites, there are currently no formal or mandatory regulations to specifically manage tourism activities in relation to marine wildlife. However, most Scottish wildlife-watching operators adopt one, or more, of the five key voluntary codes of conduct which have been developed in the UK since 2003. In this paper, we review the consistency of policy messages and recommendations across voluntary codes of conduct for the UK and Scotland, taking into consideration global use and effectiveness in the use of similar codes. In this context, we specifically examine the potential impacts of wildlife watching and management of future activities, both within and outwith marine protected areas (MPAs) in Scotland. For this, the research also incorporates data from field surveys, in-situ observations and operator questionnaires conducted in Scotland relating to the implementation of the codes in practice. Key findings highlighting inconsistences in some of the key recommendations across the five UK codes in particular, the distance and speed when approaching an animal. However, all of the codes also have some similarities, including advising against deliberate human interaction, e.g. swimming with marine megafauna, including a separate code on basking sharks, published by the Shark Trust in the UK. In light of the growing network of wildlife-focused MPAs in Scotland (in particular the Sea of Hebrides proposed MPA for mobile species), and national aspirations for the growth of the marine tourism sector, we consider the potential implications of unregulated wildlife watching and the conservation objectives of protected areas for marine mammals and basking sharks. We also provide recommendations on how more formal wildlife-watching regulations could enhance MPA effectiveness and contribute to the emerging processes for Regional Marine Plans across Scotland and provide some insights for global marine wildlife tourism. © 2016",,132-142,,,132,,Ocean Coast.

Species distribution models (SDMs) can be an important tool to support in science-based ecosystem management. The availability of direct observations of mesophotic species, including gorgonians and black corals, during costly surveys is generally limited. Therefore, predicting the distribution of mesophotic species in relation to key physical parameters of the seafloor would help improving conservation strategies in existing and new Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). This study aims to assess the distribution of gorgonians and black corals off Linosa Island, in the Strait of Sicily, a biogeographic boundary area between the western and eastern Mediterranean. The volcanic island of Linosa represents a small, naturally preserved area, with very limited human pressure, hosting rich marine benthic biodiversity on its wide submarine portions. Distribution of the most common coral species off Linosa Island was modelled under an SDM framework, relying on direct observations collected during two research cruises in 2016 and 2017 and a series of terrain parameters acquired through geophysical techniques. We used the so-called “ensemble of small models” approach to calibrate SDMs, which achieved fair-to-excellent results (AUC >0.7). In addition to identifying depth as the primary factor influencing coral distribution, our study also highlighted ruggedness as a significant terrain variable. Specifically, the depth range of 110–230 m emerged as the critical parameter determining habitat suitability for all modelled species, also highlighting peculiar and specie–specific habitat requirements. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,200,,Mar.

While this is largely being implemented through Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) other management measures, such as market based instruments (MBIs), have proved to be effective at managing target species catch in fisheries and reducing environmental impacts in industries such as mining and tourism. Market-based management measures aim to mitigate the impacts of activities by better aligning the incentives their participants face with the objectives of management, changing their behavior as a consequence. In this paper, we review the potential of MBIs as management tools to mitigate undesirable environmental impacts associated with commercial fishing. Where they exist, examples of previous applications are described and the factors that influence their applicability and effectiveness are discussed. Several fishing methods and impacts are considered and suggest that whilst no single approach is most appropriate in all circumstances either replacing or complementing existing management arrangements with MBIs has the potential to improve environmental performance. This has a number of implications. From the environmental perspective they should enable levels of undesirable impacts such as damage to sensitive habitat or the bycatch of protected species of turtles, marine mammals, and seabirds to be reduced. The increased flexibility MBIs allow industry when developing solutions also has the potential to reduce costs to both the industry and managers, improving the cost-effectiveness of regulation as a result. Further, in the increasingly relevant case of MPAs the need for publicly funded compensation, often paid to industry when vessels are excluded from grounds, may also be significantly reduced if improved environmental performance makes it possible for some industry members to continue operating. © 2015 Innes, Pascoe, Wilcox, Jennings and Paredes.",,,,OCT,2,,Front.

MPAs represent an effective tool for marine conservation and the current policies aim to increase their number to protect 30% of our ocean by 2030. To obtain the achievements derived from MPAs, public engagement is paramount and requires an understanding of people’s perceptions of MPAs. Italy has a relevant coastline affected by extreme anthropic pressures linked to tourism, fisheries and other industries, with several MPAs established over the years to mitigate these pressures. Through an online questionnaire distributed in 2014 and 2021 via snowball sampling, this study investigated public perceptions of MPAs in Italy. Despite the sampling limitations, the results showed a temporal change in environmental awareness and pro-environmental behaviours. This finding could be linked to the greater availability and accessibility of information related to the marine environment, joined with the growing urgency to face environmental challenges that involve different sectors of the population. Despite the improvements reached in public education, efforts should still be undertaken to engage citizens, especially in inland areas, to disseminate the impact of daily actions on the marine environment and to increase the acceptability of and efforts in MPAs’ implementation and effective management. © The Author(s) 2024.",,,,3,28,,J.

Remote sensing provides an opportunity to identify and map native and invasive species using accurate spectral information. The current study was aimed to evaluate PlanetScope (3 m) and Sentinel (10 m) datasets for mapping the distribution of native and invasive species in two protected areas in Pakistan, using machine learning (ML) algorithms. The multispectral data were analysed with the following four ML algorithms (classifiers)—random forest (RF), Gaussian mixture model (GMM), k-nearest neighbour (KNN), and support vector machine (SVM)—to classify two invasive species, Lantana camara L. (common lantana) and Leucaena leucocephala L. The (Ipil-ipil) Dzetsaka plugin of QGIS was used to map these species using all ML algorithms. RF, GMM, and SVM algorithms were more accurate at detecting both invasive species when using PlanetScope imagery rather than Sentinel. Random forest produced the highest accuracy of 64% using PlanetScope data. Lantana camara was the most dominating plant species with 23% cover, represented in all thematic maps. Leucaena leucocpehala was represented by 7% cover and was mainly distributed in the southern end of the Jindi Reserve Forest (Jhelum). It was not possible to discriminate native species Dodonea viscosa Jacq. (Snatha) using the SVM classifier for Sentinel data. Overall, the accuracy of PlanetScope was slightly better than Sentinel in term of species discrimination. These spectral findings provide a reliable estimation of the current distribution status of invasive species and would be helpful for land managers to prioritize invaded areas for their effective management. © 2023 by the authors.",,,,4,15,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI,,,,Biodiversity; Conservation; discrimination; Discrimination; dzetsaka tool; Dzetsaka tool; Environmental protection; Forestry; Gaussian distribution; Invasive species; Lantana camara; Leucaena leucocephala; machine learning; Machine learning algorithms; Machine-learning; Maps; Native species; Nearest neighbor search; Population distribution; protected areas; Protected areas; Random forests; Remote sensing; Support vector machines; Vegetation mapping,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In the south-east coastal waters of the Bay of Biscay this figure approaches the contribution of just the floating marine litter fraction. This study seeks to enhance knowledge on the distribution patterns of floating marine litter generated by the fisheries sector within the Bay of Biscay and in particular on target priority Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) to reinforce marine litter prevention and mitigation policies. This objective is reached by combining the data on geographical distribution and intensity of fishing activity, long-term historical met-ocean databases, Monte Carlo simulations and Lagrangian modelling with floating marine litter source and abundance estimates for the Bay of Biscay. Results represent trajectories for two groups of fishing-related items considering their exposure to wind; they also provide their concentration within 34 MPAs. Zero windage coefficient is applied for low buoyant items not subjected to wind effect. Highly buoyant items, strongly driven by winds, are forced by currents and winds, using a windage coefficient of 4 %. Results show a high temporal variability on the distribution for both groups consistent with the met-ocean conditions in the area. Fishing-related items driven by a high windage coefficient rapidly beach, mainly in summer, and are almost non-existent on the sea surface after 90 days from releasing.

This method aims to harness oceanic resources while advocating for the financial backing of crucial scientific research, sustainable ecosystem management, and support for local fisherfolk and communities, ultimately enhancing the resilience of marine environments. In Indonesia, unlocking the full potential of nature-based solutions for climate mitigation, marine conservation, and sustainable oceanic development necessitates strategic and appropriately scaled investments. Despite being introduced in the 1990s, national-level adoption of the ICM approach remains lacking. Presently, the Government of Indonesia predominantly relies on the establishment of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) asa primary tool for ocean conservation. With approximately 28.9 million hectares of MPAs currently established, Indonesia plans to expand coverage to 97.5 million hectares by 2045. Aligning with Konservasi Indonesia’s Protection and Production approach, MPAs can be tailored to operationalize ICM principles.

Local adaptations that salmon develop in different environments are the basis for the production and survival of populations and species, their ability to adapt to change, and hence their long-term viability. Unfortunately, it is not feasible to operate major fisheries and guarantee that all diversity will be preserved. Trade-off needs to be made between the protection of diversity, and social and economic consequences. In determining how much diversity to protect, Fisheries and Oceans Canada is aligning its objectives under the WSP with those specified in Canada's Species at Risk Act (SARA). Under SARA, a species is any ""species, subspecies, variety or geographically or genetically distinct population."" Units that are genetically distinct from one another, or that are sufficiently disjunct to minimize the likelihood of dispersal with other units, can be listed under SARA. Conservation units identified under the WSP will consist of one or more populations that, if extirpated, will probably not be replaced through natural processes within an acceptable time and will generally conform to the minimum species unit under SARA. This will help to ensure that the goals of the WSP are consistent with this legislation and will assist Fisheries and Oceans Canada to meet its legal responsibilities. Of equal importance, by implementing the WSP, action can be taken in response to conservation concerns in advance of legal listing under the SARA. Fishery managers will adopt a precautionary approach when planning fisheries and be cognizant of the implications of fisheries on diversity, The WSP is a significant change in management to the approach used throughout the 20th century and is a reasonable way of reconciling the continuation of socially and economically important fisheries with the maintenance of genetic diversity.",,391-+,,,49,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000254264800033,,,,,,,,,"Nielsen, J; Dodson, JJ; Friedland, K; Hamon, TR; Musick, J; Verspoor, E",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"RECONCILING FISHERIES WITH CONSERVATION, VOLS I AND II",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The southeast of the Pampas shows an outstanding environmental diversity in a relatively restricted area, with a significant amount of information about biodiversity of Tetrapods. Our goal was to gather this information within a common framework, making a list of the relative abundance of species at each environment, highlighting species of conservation concern. We evaluated the complementarity among taxa (amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals) in terms of composition, total number of species and number of threatened species. Our results on Tetrapods' diversity data shows that this small area harbor a number of species representative of Buenos Aires Province, 12 species of amphibians, 26 reptiles, 233 birds and 34 species of mammals, of which 41 are threatened and two endemic. The environments represented (grassland, dunes, mountains, wetlands, estuaries, marine, agroecosystems and urbanizations) contribute differently to the overall diversity of Tetrapods. The uneven distribution of species richness, threatened species and composition within each taxon among environments and among taxa highlights the usefulness of this type of analysis in the elucidation of the spatial variation of biodiversity and it should assists in territorial planning within a framework that optimizes the conservation of biodiversity. © Revista del Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales, n. s. 2016.",,211-233,,2,18,,Rev.

It is suggested that fisheries not only affect populations of target and bycatch species but also their parasite communities. Parasites can indicate fishery effects on host species and also on the whole local community, but the effects of fisheries and protection measures on parasite communities are relatively unknown. This study analyses parasite communities of the white seabream Diplodus sargus sargus in order to assess potential effects exerted by protection measures within and by fisheries outside a reserve in the western Mediterranean Sea. This small scale analysis offered the opportunity to study different degrees of fishery effects on parasite infracommunities, without considering climatic effects as an additional factor. Parasite infracommunities of fishes from the no-take zone (NTZ) differed in their composition and structure compared with areas completely or partially open to fisheries. The detected spatial differences in the infracommunities derived from generalist parasites and varied slightly between transmission strategies. Monoxenous parasites were richer and more diverse in both fished areas, but more abundant in the no-take, whereas richness and abundance of heteroxenous parasites were higher for the NTZ. In addition to host body size as one factor explaining these spatial variations, differences within parasite infracommunities between the areas may also be linked to increased host densities and habitat quality since the implementation of the NTZ and its protection measures. © 2018 The Fisheries Society of the British Isles",,586-596,,4,93,,J.

However, these ecosystems face significant threats from both natural environmental changes and anthropogenic activities. Understanding how environmental factors influence reef fish communities is critical to inform effective conservation strategies. This study investigated the influence of environmental factors on the community structure of coral reef fish in the Sempu Strait waters, East Java, using Underwater Visual Census (UVC) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Conducted from August 2023 to May 2024 at the Sempu Strait Floating House Station, this study aimed to assess the impact of water quality, substrate type, and food availability on the diversity and abundance of coral reef fish. The main results revealed a significant correlation between the community structure of coral reef fish and environmental variables such as water clarity, salinity (r = 0.65, p<0.01), pH (r = 0.55, p<0.05), dissolved oxygen (r = 0.70, p<0.01), and sediment type. Seasonal variations significantly affected water quality, with cold nutrient-rich water during the east monsoon increasing fish biomass by about 30%. Human activities, especially recreational diving and fishing activities, were correlated with a 20% decline in coral reef fish populations, highlighting the anthropogenic pressure on this ecosystem. PCA provides insight into the complex interdependencies within coral reef ecosystems, illustrating how multiple environmental factors combine to influence reef fish dynamics. The study concludes that effective management and conservation strategies, such as establishing marine protected areas, implementing community-based monitoring programs, and promoting sustainable tourism practices, are essential, supported by regular environmental monitoring, are essential to maintain the biodiversity and ecological integrity of coral reefs in the Sempu Strait. These strategies should address both natural environmental changes and anthropogenic impacts to mitigate their adverse effects on coral reef ecosystem conditions. © 2024, Society for Indonesian Biodiversity.

The present study was conducted in Chakwal, an important tract of the Pothwar Plateau, which sustains herds of small domestic and nomadic ruminants. Urbanization and uncontrolled grazing practices have reduced rangeland productivity and increased soil erosion and resulted in poor land conditions. This study assessed the influence of two years of rangeland protection on aboveground vegetation biomass and the chemical composition of plants and aimed to determine the influence of seasonal grazing on the live-weight gain of small ewes. Using the line intercept method, vegetation data from protected and unprotected plots in 2015 and 2016 were collected at two sites, Dhulli and Begal. Vegetation cover was assessed from images using VegMeasure. Results showed that protected study sites displayed higher vegetation biomass (834 and 690 kg ha-1) compared to the unprotected study site (477 and 326 kg ha-1) during April and August of both years. In the seasonal grazing trial, the experimental ewes that grazed on protected rangelands showed higher live-weight gain (33–63 g day-1) compared to live weight of ewes (17–21 g day-1) that grazed on unprotected rangelands during the experimental period of 127 days at both sites. The results suggest that the Chakwal rangeland has tremendous potential to improve vegetation productivity but modern livestock management and seasonal grazing practices are needed to improve carrying capacity and livestock productivity. © 2021, Science Press, Institute of Mountain Hazards and Environment, CAS and Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,46-57,,1,19,,J.

Establishing a network of sanctuaries across six riverine and estuarine zones has yielded positive ecological outcomes in the revitalization of hilsa shad (Tenualosa ilisha) fisheries. The combination of firm political commitment, a meaningful partnership among various government agencies toward more vigorous enforcement, and a compensation scheme has contributed to this success. However, less attention has been given to the sanctuaries’ social outcomes leading to underperformance in effectiveness and social equity. The drivers of ecological outcomes for hilsa shad sanctuaries may also be useful for marine megafauna conservation. In addition, fishers’ needs, and participation should be considered when developing a management plan for marine protected areas (MPAs). Finally, I argue that to achieve Aichi Target 11 and SDG14 goals, expanding the MPAs’ spatial coverage in Bangladesh should be coupled with ensuring effectiveness and social equity. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC part of Springer Nature.",,171-185,,2,49,,Hum.

The problems with the implementation of these regulations were identified, and the level of compliance among fishers and reasons for their noncompliance were assessed. Based on two case studies on coastal and marine ecosystems, the findings revealed that the level of noncompliance is highly prevalent, particularly in hilsa sanctuaries in the Meghna River estuary. The study identified coastal poverty, the inadequate and improper distribution of incentives, insufficient logistic support, limited alternative occupations, political interference and a lack of awareness regarding fishery regulations as the major limitations in the implementation. The drawbacks of proper implementation and the noncompliance of fishery regulations lead to fishery degradation, directly affect the sustainability of the coastal and marine ecosystem of Bangladesh and may be barriers to achieving Goal 14 of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Establishing a co-management mechanism for sanctuary management, creating economic opportunities outside of fishery sectors, declaring more protected areas in the coastal and marine ecosystem, enhancing logistic support to the enforcing agencies and building awareness are critical to improving the compliance level among fishers. Finally, the study submits that understanding the fishers’ reasons for compliance and noncompliance of the regulations is important for devising fishery policies through the consultation and engagement of stakeholders at all levels. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,143-151,,,76,,Mar.

The present study finds that despite having 150 forest policies to conserve the forest, the forest size is gradually shrinking across the country, particularly in the Sundarbans. However, National Forestry Policy 1979 (amended 2016) aims to protect forests and forest resources, and Wildlife (Conservation and Security) Act, 2012 (hereafter the Wildlife Act 2012) protects against wildlife crimes. Although National Forestry Policy 2016 endeavours to engage the local communities in the conservation process, no significant improvement was seen in the life of local communities and forest management.

Despite this, spatial heterogeneity, reflecting terrain organisation of environmental conditions, is seldom quantified in the marine environment, especially at regional scale. In contrast, quantification of spatial patterns has been widely applied to characterise structural features of terrestrial landscapes and has been demonstrated to be of great use in landscape ecology and spatial planning. To address this discrepancy, we use landscape ecology indices (entropy-based contagion) and objective automated marine landscape mapping techniques to quantify marine landscape heterogeneity and evaluate the use of this metric as proxy for biodiversity in submarine canyons. Submarine canyons enhance marine landscape diversity at regional scales and provide unique habitats for diverse and abundant faunal assemblages. The deep and complex topography, strong currents and occurrence of specific oceanographic patterns affect the habitat heterogeneity potentially making canyons a hotspot for biological activity, with high faunal diversity. Here, multibeam bathymetry and sidescan sonar imagery were used to generate a marine landscape map for Whittard Canyon, NE Atlantic, using objective automated classification and object-based image analysis (OBIA). The resulting marine landscape map was characterised by seven landscape types, of which five were found to be ecologically relevant using species indicator analysis (INDVAL). Spatial heterogeneity within the landscape map was then quantified with the entropy-based contagion index. Differences in the entropy-based contagion index were highly significant between canyon branches and the lower canyon. The two main canyon branches were not significantly different from each other. Differences in entropy-based contagion value across seabed areas can help to determine areas suitable for the establishment of Marine Protected Area. © 2018",,181-198,,,169,,Prog.

This research aims to determine the sustainability of fishing household livelihood assets on the coast of marine conservation areas. The research locations are in three coastal villages in the marine conservation area of the eastern region of Bintan Island, Riau Island Province of Indonesia. This research uses a survey method with a quantitative descriptive approach. The research results show that, in general, the development of marine conservation areas in the eastern region has not had a significant impact on increasing the sustainability of the livelihood assets of the surrounding community. Of the five assets measured, only physical assets showed the best level of sustainability, namely 83%. Meanwhile, the other four assets indicate a low level of sustainability, namely human resource assets (42%), social assets (42%), financial assets (23%) and natural assets (29%). The low level of sustainability of the four livelihood assets has implications for increasing pressure on natural resources and conflicts of interest in conservation areas, as well as increasing community vulnerability to climate change. It is necessary to study management models that can increase the sustainability of community livelihood assets.  © 2023 BIO Web of Conferences.

Along with its elevations, climate, and vegetation vary. These influence the distribution of flora and fauna such as butterfly. The objectives of this study were (i) to document the diversity of butterfly along elevational gradients and (ii) to analyze species diversity patterns based on faunistic aspect. To determine spatial distribution, this study was conducted at three different altitudes; 1 200 m, 800 m, and 400 m above sea level (a.s.l.). Samplings were conducted from May 2014 until Feb 2015. During the eight sampling occasions, two main methods were employed; manual collection using the aerial net and baited trapping using rotten fruits. A total of 635 individuals comprising 129 butterfly species from five families were recorded. The five families were Papilionidae, Pieridae, Nymphalidae, Lycaenidae, and Hesperiidae. Nymphalidae was the most well-represented family by 58.1 % species richness and 80.3 % abundance. At all elevations, eight species were consistently found. They were: Eurema hecabe, Euploea mulciber, Ideopsis gaura, Mycalesis maianeas, Ypthima pandocus, Cirrochroa malaya, Cirrochroa orissa, and Hypolimnas bolina. There were highly significant differences (p < 0.001) in the diversity of butterfly species between elevations. The values of Shannon Diversity Index (H') was highest, 4.179 at 400m and lowest, 1.792 at 1 200 m. Meanwhile, the Species Evenness Index (E') at 400 m was 0.660 and at 1 200 m was 0.162. These indicated that lowest altitude (400 m) would harbor higher species diversity and more even species distribution compared to the two higher altitudes. Spatially, the diversity of butterfly in a highland forest of Malaysia was established, providing a baseline data that would be useful for monitoring and conservation of a protected area such as Gunung Ledang National Park. © 2018 Author(s).",,,,,2002,,,,,,,,American Institute of Physics Inc.,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: AIP Conf.

A review of available information identified a lack of knowledge in sustainable mechanisms to finance MPA networks. At the United Nations Ocean Conference in 2017, Fiji reaffirmed its voluntary commitment to make 30% of its inshore and offshore marine area MPAs by 2020 under Sustainable Development Goal 14. The work presented here uses empirical data to explore potential benefits from selected community-based MPAs to recipient local stakeholders. A Willingness to Pay (WTP) and Willingness to Contribute Time (WtCT) method was used to explore the extent to which bottom-up governance systems represent a potential financing mechanism of a MPA network. Results of 115 interviews concluded that proximity to a fishing market, dependence on marine resources, food security, income and international commitments were significant variables influencing stakeholder's WTP and WtCT to manage a MPA. We argue that there is a discrepancy between WtCT and WTP driven by income constraints. Thus, by using WTP and WtCT to support financing of a MPA network, a Provincial Trust Fund (PTF) could promote an equitable and benefits-based contribution. Equally important, a PTF has a polycentric and decentralized governance model, which endorses sustainable management of traditional fishing communities. The conclusions provide insight into a bottom-up approach for long-term financial sustainability of Fiji's national MPA commitments. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,352-363,,,163,,Ocean Coast.

Our aim in this paper is to analyse the results, based on each of these tools, using Marxan, a mapping software to obtain a zonation of a protect area in Mediterranean central Italy . The management algorithms of protected areas are widely used to identify potential networks of natural reserves that meet pre-established ecological limits, such as the presence of a specific percentage of habitats or a specific number of populations, at the same time minimizing costs. The Marxan software was made for different habitat where fragmentation of natural patches are significantly lower than in the study area, but it show interesting and useful result also in this situation. Marxan is particularly useful to solve the problem of the minimum set, in which the aim is to identify, at the lowest possible cost, the areas in which the biodiversity preconditions identified are present. In this work the Circeo National Park (Central Italy) was analysed, as an example of the Mediterranean area. We elaborated, through Marxan a series of maps of the priority areas for conservation that can be used as a starting point working with all the stakeholders involved in the management of the area itself. The main information suggests is to take particular attention to seasonal variations in the composition of the bird communities and, consequently, to the weight that the Park assumes at national and international level in the context of migratory movements and biodiversity conservation. In addition, special attention must be paid to the growing of intensive, rapidly expanding agricultural activities that are not enough controlled and are potentially highly damaging for the Park's biodiversity, both in terms of vegetation and fauna. © 2019 Centro Italiano Studi Ornitologici.

The research was performed within two protected areas in Slovenia: Se?ovlje Salina Nature Park and Škocjan Inlet Nature Reserve. Shifts between habitats will occur, but a general decline of 42 % for all Natura 2000 habitats is projected by 2060, according to local or global (IPCC AR4) sea level rise predictions. Three different countermeasures for the long-term conservation of targeted habitat types were proposed. The most “natural” is displacement of coastal habitats using buffer zones (1) were available. Another solution is construction of artificial islets, made of locally dredged material (2); a feasible solution in both protected areas. Twenty-two islets and a dried salt pan zone at the desired elevations suitable for those habitats that have been projected to decease in area would offer an additional 10 ha in the Se?ovlje Salina. Twenty-one islets and two peninsulas at two different micro-altitudes would ensure the survival of 13 ha of three different habitats. In the area of Se?ovlje Salina, abandoned salt pans could be terrestrialized by using permanent, artificial sea barriers, in a manner close to poldering (3). By using this countermeasure, another 32 ha of targeted habitat could be preserved. It can be concluded that, for each coastal area, where wetland habitats will shrink, strategic plans involving any of the three solutions should be prepared well in advance.

In Škocjan Inlet Nature Reserve it was carefully planned for new mudflats and islets to be created along a microaltitudinal gradient, aiming to achieve the spontaneous development of at least three target habitat types (mudflats not covered by seawater at low tide, Mediterranean glasswort swards and Mediterranean saltmarsh scrubs, including the transitional forms between them) through the primary succession pathways. Thus, this study was actually projected as a field experiment, on the one hand, and as a practical conservation measure, to recover a degraded area, on another. Vegetation cover on the newly constructed mudflats changed by 92% over 6 years of succession. In general, un-vegetated mudflats decreased from 71% to 26%. In contrast to this, Mediterranean glasswort swards increased from 6.5% to 28.2%, whereas saltmarsh scrub had the longest positive trend, constantly gaining area from 2008 (0.6%) to 2012 (28.9%). Detailed mapping showed rather deterministic successional pathways, which make restoration plans for halophyte communities more predictable. The study shows that this ""ecological experiment"" might have concrete implications for the restoration or re-creation of halophyte plant communities along sedimentary seacoasts-in general, all priority habitats in the European Union. The approach of creating artificial terrain within coastal protected areas is especially important in the light of the climate change-driven rise in sea level, often in conjunction with the ""coastal squeeze"" phenomenon. © 2016 Elsevier B.V..",,79-86,,,150,,Landsc.

This study aimed to describe and analyze social and professional variables and identify the knowledge of ecological and ecosystem services of professionals who work with the marine manatee in Brazil. National legislation lacks data about ecosystem services associated with manatees, so the familiarity of professionals with the subject becomes essential for their identification. Data were collected using forms completed autonomously by professionals who participated in the elaboration of the National Action Plan for the Conservation of Sirenia. The questionnaires were sent by email to 21 professionals from April to October 2020. Among these professionals, 15 completed and returned the form. Most respondents work at private institutions and have more than ten years’ experience. No differences were observed regarding the presence of ecosystem services, that is, the respondents believe that all categories were relevant in their geographic area. We found a positive and significant correlation between pressures and threats in manatees, demonstrating that the current impacts affecting the species and its ecosystem services will remain in the future. Most respondents stated that there is a relationship between the culture of the community and the manatee. The cultural manifestations associated with the animal proved to be exclusive to some areas of occurrence, thus providing an identity for these regions.

According to the literature, the use of these services is associated with human needs related to provision, ecosystem regulation, education, culture, spirituality, and recreation. Tourism with marine animals can provide psychological benefits, emotional connection, fun, and learning, in addition to generating high income in local communities. This study aimed to determine the willingness to pay of the community and visitors for the conservation of the West Indian manatee (Trichechus manatus), identify the revenue from manatee watching, and evaluate well-being according to the participants of this attraction. The study was conducted from January 2020 to February 2021, in the Costa dos Corais Environmental Protection Area, Brazil. Data were collected using questionnaires and specific forms for the seven categories of social actors involved with manatee watching. The contingent valuation method was used to evaluate the willingness to pay of the respondents for the conservation of the manatee. The willingness of individuals to conduct voluntary work was also considered and subsequently converted into monetary values. Revenue from manatee watching was calculated through the direct costs of acquiring tour tickets and indirect expenditure on accommodation, food, transportation, and souvenirs. The feelings of the tourists who completed the trip were determined using a semi-structured question and their level of satisfaction was established using a five-point Likert scale. A total of 761 interviews were conducted. Most of the survey respondents were female, with a high level of education, and with a median monthly income of USD 1 800 dollars. The average mean value declared for willingness to pay was USD 3.6 dollars per month. The median hours devoted to volunteer work were 60 hours per year, which is the equivalent of USD 2.59 dollars per month. Direct revenue from this form of tourism was USD 125 595 dollars and total projected revenue was USD 15 392 225.45 dollars in the studied period. The vast majority of tourists managed to see the manatee and declared positive feelings after the trip. We believe that more elaborate promotion of manatee-watching would attract a higher number of tourists to the protected area. Copyright © 2022 Izidoro and Schiavetti.",,,,,9,,Front. Mar.

To identify and locate potential nursery areas, a solid understanding of species-environment relationships and their spatio-temporal dynamics is needed. Within this context, in this study we assess where European hake (Merluccius merluccius) recruits persistently aggregate in the northern continental shelf of the Iberian Peninsula. Hake recruit data collected during scientific trawl surveys between 2005 and 2016 were analyzed using Bayesian hurdle hierarchical spatio-temporal models, considering the environmental variables bathymetry, sea bottom temperature and salinity. Additionally, three different spatio-temporal structures (i.e., persistent, progressive, or opportunistic) were compared to assess the temporal persistence of nurseries over time. Among all the environmental variables analyzed, bathymetry was the most important. The preferential habitat of recruits was found to be within a bathymetric range of 120–200 m. Our findings clearly show that there is a temporally persistent main nursery located along the continental shelf of the Artabrian gulf (off La Coruńa) in addition to several areas with high aggregations of hake recruits but with strong inter-annual variability. We argue that the analytical framework applied in this study allowed us to identify European hake nurseries in the northern continental shelf of the Iberian Peninsula, as well as their spatio-temporal fluctuations throughout the study period (2005–2016), and to assess which environmental factors, among bathymetry, sea bottom temperature and salinity, influence the occurrence and abundance of recruits in the study area. Results of our models also produce a new abundance index that could be useful for improving traditional stock assessment models. © Copyright © 2021 Izquierdo, Paradinas, Cervińo, Conesa, Alonso-Fernández, Velasco, Preciado, Punzón, Saborido-Rey and Pennino.",,,,,8,,Front.

Here we aim to assess the interactions between all active fisheries operating in the waters of the Valencia region and the cetacean species inhabiting this area. A total of 282 face-to-face interviews (51.37% of the total fleet) to fishers were held on 20 ports at the study area to gather information about cetacean by-catch and all types of interactions between fisheries and cetaceans. The interviewed bottom trawlers (n = 148 boats) reported a monthly by-catch rate (C) of 0.01 dolphins per vessel. Bottom trawling vessels operating at neritic zones only reported by-catch of common bottlenose dolphin (C = 0.009), while those fishing at oceanic zones by-caught striped dolphin (C = 0.006) and common bottlenose dolphin (C = 0.003). The interviewed artisanal fishers (n = 114 boats), the second most important fishery in the study area, only reported one dolphin by-catch event, but 90 of these boats communicated continued negative interactions with the common bottlenose dolphin, causing gear damage and catch take. The interviewed vessels gave an estimation of their annual economic loss produced by this interaction (mean ± SD: 2,998.10 ± 2095.02 € per boat). Other fisheries operating in the Valencia region were purse-seiners (n = 15 boats) and pelagic longlines, a fishery that has almost disappeared in the study area (n = 5 boats). The first one had the highest estimated dolphin by-catch rate (C= 0.04) and mainly interacted with common bottlenose dolphin, but also with striped dolphin. The information gathered from interviews was complimented with long-term stranding data (1990–2020). Despite the fact that only 7.80% of all recorded stranded cetaceans showed fisheries interaction signs, 26.72% of the common bottlenose dolphins recorded showed evidence of this interaction, thus confirming that it is the cetacean species most affected by fisheries in the area. Records of stranded striped dolphin (6.45%) also showed evidence of fisheries interaction.

This vast EU-wide network, which aims to conserve Europe’s most valuable and threatened species and habitats, has major impacts on land use throughout all Member States of the EU. This book critically assesses the origins and implementation of the Natura 2000 network, established under the Birds Directive of 1979 and the Habitats Directive of 1992. Based on original archival research and interviews with key participants, the book records a detailed history of the origins and negotiation of Natura 2000 policy and law, with the history of EU environmental policy provided as a framework. An historical institutionalist approach is adopted, which emphasises the importance of understanding legal and policy development as processes that unfold over time. Three phases in the history of EU environmental policy are identified and described, and the history of EU nature policy is placed within the context of these three phases. Informed by this history, the author presents a comprehensive summary and assessment of the law and policy that protects Natura 2000 sites at EU level, and reviews the nature conservation outcomes for the targeted species and habitats. The book reveals how a knowledge of the history of Natura 2000 enriches our understanding of key issues such as conflicts in establishing and conserving the Natura 2000 network, EU integration in the field of nature conservation, and the future of EU nature policy. © 2018 Andrew L.

Given the Natura 2000 network's size, conflicts between Natura 2000 and renewable energy projects are inevitable, particularly as countries push to meet their 2020 energy and emissions reduction targets by pursuing more - and larger - renewable energy projects. Focusing on two cases in the renewable energy sector - a hydroelectric dam in Portugal's Sabor valley, and a large tidal barrage in the UK's Severn estuary - this article shows that the EU's strict biodiversity protection regime could necessitate the rejection of many large renewable energy projects. That is, it may not be possible as a matter of EU law for national authorities to grant permission for such projects. The potential for such difficulties will be shown to be highly visible to policymakers, and could, this article argues, trigger negative impacts in terms of the rule of law, and negative feedbacks on nature conservation policies in the EU and, by way of precedent, globally. The legal issues presented here should not, this article argues, be regarded as insurmountable problems, nor as a trigger for reforms aimed at weakening biodiversity protections. Rather, these issues are better regarded as an opportunity for an open, informed, global debate regarding the relationship between biodiversity and climate change policies, and the hierarchy, if any, between them. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,1195-1208,,4,21,,Global Environ.

Paleoecological, archeological, and historical reconstructions demonstrate incredible losses of large vertebrates and oysters from the entire Atlantic coast. Untold millions of large fishes, sharks, sea turtles, and manatees were removed from the Caribbean in the 17th to 19th centuries. Recent collapses of reef corals and seagrasses are due ultimately to losses of these large consumers as much as to more recent changes in climate, eutrophication, or outbreaks of disease. Overfishing in the 19th century reduced vast beds Of oysters in Chesapeake Bay and other estuaries to a few percent of pristine abundances and promoted eutrophication. Mechanized harvesting of bottom fishes like cod set off a series of trophic cascades that eliminated kelp forests and then brought them back again as fishers fished their way down food webs to small invertebrates. Lastly, but most pervasively, mechanized harvesting of the entire continental shelf decimated large, long-lived fishes and destroyed three-dimensional habitats built up by sessile corals, bryozoans, and sponges. The universal pattern of losses demonstrates that no coastal ecosystem is pristine and few wild fisheries are sustainable along the entire Western Atlantic coast. Reconstructions of ecosystems lost only a century or two ago demonstrate attainable goals of establishing large and effective marine reserves if society is willing to pay the costs.

The main threat to this species is human encroachment, led by entanglement in fishing gear. Information on this data-poor species’ ecology and habitat use is needed to effectively inform spatial management. Location: We investigated the habitat of a previously unstudied group of Irrawaddy dolphins in the eastern Gulf of Thailand, between the villages of Laem Klat and Khlong Yai, in Trat Province. This location is important as government groups plan to establish a marine protected area. Methods: We carried out boat-based visual line transect surveys with concurrent oceanographic measurements and used hurdle models to evaluate this species’ patterns of habitat use in this area. Results: Depth most strongly predicted dolphin presence, while temperature was a strong predictor of group size. The highest probability of dolphin presence occurred at around 10.0 m with an optimal depth range of 7.50 to 13.05 m. The greatest number of dolphins was predicted at 24.93°C with an optimal range between 24.93 and 25.31°C. Dolphins are most likely to occur in two primary locations, one large region in the center of the study area (11o54?18??N to 11o59?23??N) and a smaller region in the south (11o47?28??N to 11o49?59??N). Protections for this population will likely have the greatest chance of success in these two areas. Main Conclusions: The results of this work can inform management strategies within the immediate study area by highlighting areas of high habitat use that should be considered for marine spatial planning measures, such as the creation of marine protected areas. Species distribution models for this species in Thailand can also assist conservation planning in other parts of the species’ range by expanding our understanding of habitat preferences. © 2020 The Authors.

Understanding which biological indicators are most sensitive to protection is essential for adaptive management, and while density is a commonly used metric to monitor MPAs, previous work has pointed to a lack of reliability of this metric to effectively evaluate MPAs, particularly during initial stages of protection. To determine which biological indicators of MPA success were evident 5 yr after protection began, we examined the differences in populations inside vs. outside MPAs for 3 fishes targeted by anglers — kelp bass Paralabrax clathratus, barred sand bass P. nebulifer, and California sheephead Semicossyphus pulcher — and 4 non-targeted species. We used stereo-video to determine the average body size, biomass, and density of each species in 7 MPAs in Southern California that were paired with nearby non-MPA sites. Responses of targeted species were detectable after 5 yr of protection in some MPAs. In most but not all MPAs, individuals were larger compared to outside MPAs for kelp bass and California sheephead. Biomass and density of targeted species appeared to be less sensitive to MPA effects. As expected, non-targeted species did not show evidence of MPA effects. Similar to past studies, our findings indicate that the choice of response variable and species studied may influence the perceived efficacy of MPAs, and we emphasize that increases in length may be a particularly sensitive indicator of effective protection. © 2020 Inter-Research.

However, despite evidence of the positive effects of MPAs, such as increases in body sizes of organisms targeted by fisheries, there is often heterogeneity in biological outcomes among them. Because fishing can drastically impact fish populations, the goal of this study was to determine if the levels of exploitation prior to protection could predict variation in the magnitude of MPA effects. Using a diver-operated stereo–video camera system, we compared sizes of fishes targeted by anglers within seven MPAs spanning the Southern California Bight to nearby comparison areas (non-MPAs). We used fine-scale data on pre-closure fishing pressure to test responses of fishes to protection along a gradient of exploitation. Fish size responded to protection in proportion to pre-closure fishing pressure, with MPAs in areas with high pre-closure fishing having greater responses in average lengths and size distributions than those in areas with low fishing pressure. This response was evident in species heavily targeted by recreational fishing, but not in species that were not targeted in fisheries. Synthesis and applications. Pre-closure fishing pressure of an area can impact the efficacy of MPAs, and, when available, should be considered when predicting and evaluating MPA performance. Prioritizing heavily exploited areas for protection when implementing spatial management tools could maximize ecological outcomes. © 2019 The Authors.

In many cases redd counts are conducted at subjectively selected sites, and there has been limited evaluation of statistical sampling designs. We evaluated the utility of the generalized random tessellation stratified (GRTS) sampling design to determine bull trout population status through redd counts. We tested a sampling effort that would be economically practical to implement on a continuous basis in multiple drainages within the southeastern Washington and Oregon portions of the Columbia River plateau. We evaluated the logistics of a pilot application of the GRTS design, compared GRTS-based estimates of redd abundance with those from census surveys, determined the precision of the GRTS estimates and the associated power for abundance comparisons, and compared the performance of the GRTS design with that of other probability sampling designs through simulation. A target of 50 sites per basin can be sampled by a two-person survey crew multiple times over the spawning season. At that level of effort, the precision of redd abundance estimates ranges from 15% to 35%, depending on the patchiness of the redd distribution and the extent of the target population. These levels of precision are suitable for detecting a 30- 70% change in redd abundance. Direct comparisons of GRTS-based estimates with those obtained from a census showed mixed results. However, in a simulation study with three other probability sampling designs, GRTS consistently outperformed all but systematic sampling, which provided slightly better precision at intermediate sample sizes. Depending on the scale of inference, GRTS is useful in monitoring bull trout conservation units through redd counts, though a census may provide a more practical design for monitoring core areas as defined by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. © Copyright by the American Fisheries Society 2009.",,1590-1604,,6,29,,North Am.

Many large MPAs are, however, impacted by illegal fishing activity conducted by unlicensed vessels. While enforcement of these reserves is often expensive, it would likely benefit from the integration of ecological data on the mobile animals they are designed to protect. Consequently, shark populations in some protected areas continue to decline, as they remain a prime target for illegal fishers. To understand shark movements and their vulnerability to illegal fishing, 3 years of acoustic tracking data, from 101 reef-associated sharks, were analysed as movement networks to explore the predictability of movement patterns and identify key movement corridors within the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT) MPA. We examined how space use and connectivity overlap with spatially explicit risk of illegal fishing, through data obtained from the management consultancy enforcing the MPA. Using individual-based models, the movement networks of two sympatric shark species were efficiently predicted with distance-decay functions (>95% movements accurately predicted). Model outliers were used to highlight the locations with unexpectedly high movement rates where MPA enforcement patrols might most efficiently mitigate predator removal. Activity space estimates and network metrics illustrate that silvertip sharks were more dynamic, less resident and link larger components of the MPA than grey reef sharks. However, we show that this behaviour potentially enhances their exposure to illegal fishing activity. Synthesis and applications. Marine protected area (MPA) enforcement strategies are often limited by resources. The British Indian Ocean Territory MPA, one of the world's largest 'no take' MPAs, has a single patrol vessel to enforce 640,000 km(2)of open ocean, atoll and reef ecosystems. We argue that to optimize the patrol vessel search strategy and thus enhance their protective capacity, ecological data on the space use and movements of desirable species, such as large-bodied reef predators, must be incorporated into management plans. Here, we use electronic tracking data to evaluate how shark movement dynamics influence species mortality trajectories in exploited reef ecosystems.

The output soon or late would be a different forest. Forest monitoring is a well-regulated and usually long running procedure, which has the ability to detect these phenomena and reactions based on the aims it perceives and the principals it pursues. In international agreements, the ecological forest monitoring programs, which scheduled in twenty-first agenda of biodiversity convention, titled ""continuous monitoring"". As a result, countries have to commence initial studies as a duty toward international obligations. Unquestionable ecological assignment of Zagros oak forests (preservation of biodiversity, soil and water) and their socio-economic and cultural features compels due to a sustainable management plan. To do that, present and futuristic information about the structure and function of these ecosystems is in need. As long as ecological monitoring of these forests implemented, the possibility of providing this information for sustainable forest management would be possible. Therefore, in this article based on an ecological monitoring program, we attempted to run a conceptual model to illustrate the expression, structure and function of the Central Zagros forests. The fulfillment of the model creates a framework for a long term planning and brings about the necessary information for ideal and sustainable management. Material and Methods: Helen Protected Forest with an area about 40131 ha is located in Chaharmahal-va-Bakhtiari Province in Iran. The topography of the area is mountainous and altitudes are ranged from 1168 m in Paule Armand up to 3225 m in mountain peaks. The Climate is semi-humid with hot-dry summers and cold winters with average annual rainfall of 800-400 mm and mean annual temperature of 14°C. Range and forest lands covers 30 and 10 thousand hectares of Helen Protected Forest, respectively. The dominant tree species in the region is oak, but other trees and shrubs like Astragalus, Daphne and hawthorn can be seen. Human populations inside and around the region, are comprised of 12870 people which are settled in 31 villages. The research has carried out in two stages, including the formulation of conceptual model and fulfilling the ecosystem-monitoring program. A combination of library searches as well as field excursions generating an acceptable understanding of the region and clarifying the project goals. With the prevailing conditions in the region, in the second stage, descriptive and comparative analysis formulated the appropriate model. In the design phase of the program, monitoring and component determination have been carried out based on successful studies in other countries. Regardless of the type of the source, ecological monitoring program in general is consisted of target determination, monitoring indices and stations. In this study, with respect to the issue of forest monitoring, several stations have been assigned and implemented, as it illustrated in Figure 1 and Table 1 to determine the matching and other components. (Figure Presented) (Table Presented) Results and Discussion: Based on the socio-economic and ecological conditions, prevailing in the region, a conceptual model is formulated for Helen Protected Forest. The dominant functional relationship between the various components and their monitoring programs is expressed in accordance with the plot locations and the indicators. Due to lack of repetition, these may not be the actual monitoring results, but as a pilot for the original calibration program are quite useful to understand the status quo. Surface area, density and health of canopy measurements showed a density of seven trees per plot and 25% foliage cover. In addition, 10 out of 17 plots had signs of infestation, which were mainly because of oak leaf eating caterpillars. In average, 55% of the oak trees were infected to ticks, aphids or cicadas. The numerical value of the tree and shrub species diversity, in accordance with the index of Shannon-Wiener, was equivalent to 0.4 and correspondent value for bushy and herbaceous species was 3.4. The rate of growth and the production of trees and forests can be established by measuring changes in breast height diameter and the tree crown diameter until the next monitoring period. This is done by special relationships. Based on the monitoring pilot phase, what can now be said is that the 46.62 percentage of diameter 10-35.4 cm class implies that forest has been under pressure of clear cutting in the past. Long term ecological monitoring in Zagros landscapes creates a promising opportunity for managers, decision makers and researchers in the field of natural resources to collect and verify data for dynamic environmental policies. Since there are records of numerous failures in long term monitoring in landscape scales, the necessity of proper understanding, especially in inter-components competence, is inevitable to avoid unwanted costs. Although the results in this study come from a portion of the protected forest where was more reachable, but the model outcome showed that destructive factors like understory cultivation create a hostile conditions for forest dynamic growth. Overgrazing and charcoal exploitation are the problems everywhere in the region. Therefore, the study recommends the expansion of the ecological monitoring to all over the protected area.",,179-191,,1,41,,J. Environ.

On one hand it is impossible to allocate vast areas to conservation in competition with other land uses and on other hand it is not clear which parts of the land is of more biodiversity values and deserves conservation. In this situation the using better substitutes such as vegetation cover is inevitable. Vegetation types have been considered as suitable substitutes in many studies. Materials and Methods The study area is Kohgiluye & Boir-Ahmad province located in southwest of Iran, neighboring from north and east to Chaharmahal & Bakhtiary and Isfahan provinces, from south to Fars and Booshehr and from west to Khuzestan (Figure 1). The study area with 1609979 ha area (around 1% of Iran) has a mountainous landscape. More than 80% of the area is covered with mountains and hills. The lowest part is of an altitude of 170 m above sea level and the point with maximum elevation is Dena peak with 4409 m above sea level. This indicates a sharp elevation gradient. Other physical and biological characteristic of the study area such as climate (temperature and humidity), soil, biodiversity (floral and faunal) are functions of this gradient. At present about 12% of the study area is under protection which consists of 6 protected areas named Dena, Dena-ye Sharghi, Tang-e Soolak, Kooh-e Dill, Kooh-e Khamin and Kooh-e Khiz & Sorkh. Fig. 1: Location of the study area in Iran In this study we used vegetation types as the overall biodiversity substitutes for two reasons; 1. There was no other complete and up-to-date information set on other biotic elements of biodiversity such as mammals, birds, reptiles etc. 2. Vegetation types could reflect natural and human facts from past and present in the best way. Selecting the areas of the highest priorities for biodiversity conservation have been done according to Systematic Conservation Planning procedure in six steps including 1- selecting an appropriate substitute for overall biodiversity 2- compiling information on the selected substitute 3- setting quantitative goals for the substitution 4- assessing representativeness for the existing protected areas 5- prioritizing new PAs in order to fill existing conservation gaps 6- assessing the viability of substitutes in existing and new PAs network. We used two types of selecting/planning units. The first was obtained from integrating vegetation type units with land type units and the other one was obtained from integrating vegetation types units with elevation belts. For determining conservation goals for each vegetation type we used TARGET veg = 10 * (1+ NR + TH + BV) where NR is the natural rarity of each vegetation type in the study area which is calculated in terms of broadest vegetation type (Am) relative to considered vegetation type (Ai) : NR = (Am - Ai)/Am. TH is the threats each vegetation area faced and BV, the agent we added to the equation, is the biodiversity value of each vegetation type in terms of both physiognomic (diversity of vegetative form) and floristic (diversity of species) aspects. For prioritizing new conservation areas in step 5, we used C-lan decision support system. Findings There are major gaps in existing protected areas in the study area in terms of vegetation types. In other words 38 out of 55 vegetation types are not presented in protected areas network at all. Three out of 17 vegetation types presented in PAs including Quercus persica, Astragallus susianus - Daphne mucronata - Agropyrum intermedium and Astragalus adsendense - Daphne mucronata - Elymus gentieri occupy more than 62% of all PAs and other 14 vegetation types occupy less than 38% of them. Figure (2) indicates the conservation situation of all 55 vegetation types in terms of existing conservation, established goals and met conservation goals after the selection of new protected areas in terms of percentage of all quantity. Comarision of existing, established and final targets. Fig. 2: conservation situation of all vegetation types in terms of existing conservation, established goals and met conservation goals after the selection of new protected areas Existing protected areas are also poor in terms of vegetation type diversity. Dena with 10 and Dena-ye Sharghi with 9 vegetation types are the most diverse protected areas which constitute only 18.8% and 16.36% of all vegetation types. Other protected areas including Tang-e Soolak, Kooh-e Dill, Kooh-e Khamin and Kooh-e Khiz & Sorkh only have 2,4,4,5 out of 55 vegetation types respectively (3.64%, 7.27%, 7.27% and 9.1%). In terms of total area allocated to conservation, the selection units which are the results of integrating vegetation type units with land type units concluded more efficient protected areas network (26.27% of the study area vs. 27.18%). There is also a meaningful difference between total areas allocated to conservation taking or not taking into account the existing protected areas in selecting new protected areas network (26.27% of the study area vs. 22.79%). So, if new protected areas are to be selected in order to fill existing conservation gaps in minimum area, we suppose to use the first kind of planning (selecting) units. However due to the values of existing protected areas in terms of biodiversity elements other than vegetation types we could not ignore them. Thus, in order to fill conservation gaps for all vegetation types, we need to allocate approximately 26.27% of the study area in a good configuration according to all vegetation types' distribution. Discussion Unfortunately, in the study area of the present research there is no similar study in order to compare the results. However in national level some natural resources scientists have pohted out conservation gaps in macro vegetative regions especially in Zagros mountains vegetative province which is itself a part of Iran-oTuranian vegetative region. This study confirms that point of view in a quantitative and local level. Relatively low efficiency of the prioritized protected areas network in both kinds of planning units is due to incomplete coincidence between planning units and vegetation type units. In other word, if a small patch of a vegetation type, which is the only patch of that vegetation type, exists in the study area located in a large planning unit, selecting that planning unit is necessary. The additional area of that unit will decrease the final efficiency of the protected areas network. A solution for this problem is to take the vegetation type unit itself as the planning unit. This study takes an intermediate level of biologic hierarchy into account. It is necessary to consider other lower levels such as species (both animals and plants especially rare and endangered ones) and upper levels such as ecosystems and landscape in order to ensure conservation and persistence of all biodiversity elements in protected areas network.",,01-Oct,,56,36,,J.

However, regarding recent evolutions in conservation approaches from species toward ecosystem and landscape Today biodiversity involves processes, functions and phenomena, which are not tractable in species conservation approaches. Vegetation types have several habitat implications and therefore have been used in many studies as biodiversity surrogate. So, in this study we used the vegetation types and endemic/rare plants species as biodiversity surrogates in order to assess the representativeness of existing PAs system in Central Zagros Mountain one of the richest biodiversity regions in Iran versus established conservation targets. The methodology used in this paper could be applied in other parts of Iran, since it is for the first time in the country according to our literature review. The study area, Charmahal & Bakhtiari province, covers 16432 square km (ca. 1% of the country) and located in 31° 9' to 32° 48' N latitude and 49° 28' to 51° 25' E longitude along with NW-SE. Approximately 80% of the study area is mountainous with average 2153 m above see level. Mean annual temperature vary between 8.5 and 20 °C and precipitation between 254-1500 mm. Socio politically, 857910 people inhabit in study area according to last census, from which 51.55% live in urban areas, 48.33% in rural areas and 0.11%, are nomads. According to Forests & Rangelands Organization (2004) approximately 55.2% of the study area is covered by rangelands, 20.5% by forest, 16% by cultivated lands and the rest is residential areas, water bodies, bare lands and rocks outcrops. This area is part of Irano-Turanian floristic region and contains 923 plant species, 294 animal species (170 birds, 62 mammal, 35 reptile, 22 fish and 5 amphibians). Biodiversity conservation system (terrestrial) consists of 2 components including: (i) Statutory protected areas; national park, protected areas and national natural monument, (ii) Planned areas; forbidden hunting areas (see Table 1 and Figure 1). this study has been conducted in 4 stages, according to ""systematic conservation planning"" procedure (Margules and Pressey 2000): 1) selecting surrogates, 2) compiling data and information on surrogates, 3) setting goal and targets for surrogates, 4) reviewing existing protected areas in terms of surrogates versus established targets. Only 17 out of 36 vegetation types exist in existing protected and/or planned areas. However, for 12 out of 15 vegetation types exist just in statutory PAs, established targets are not met sufficiently and for 3 of them targets are satisfied more than established level even up to 55% (e.g. in the case of Scariola orientalis Astragalus spp.). Taking into account planned areas, 10 out of 17 vegetation types are protected less than established targets and 7 are protected more than established targets even up to 73.65% (e. g. in the case ofAstragalus susianus - Cousinia cylindracea). In the case of endemic/rare plants species, 27 out of 52 species are represented at least once in statutory and/or planned PAs. 16 out of these 27 endemic/rare species are represented just in statutory PAs, 6 just in planned areas and 5 in both. Sabz-Kooh with 11 out of 36 vegetation types is the most representative PA followed by Sheida (planned area) with 9, Helen with 8 and Tang-e Sayyad with 6 types (Table 3). Two types (Astragalus adsendense Agropyrum intermedium and Astragalus spp. - Cousinia spp.) are common amongst 3 PAs. Sabz-Kooh and Helen have 4 common vegetation types, Sabz-Kooh and Tang-e Sayyad have 2 and Helen and Tang-e Sayyad have no common vegetation types. Two types (Gundelia tournefortii - Cousinia spp. and Perennial grasses) are represented just in planned areas, 7 types represented only in statutory PAs and the rest (8 types) are represented both in statutory and planned areas (Table 3). Therefore, the level of representing vegetation types will differ with or without taking into account planned protected areas. For example conservation goal for Annual grasses - Annual forbs will differ from -16.2% (under representation) to +2.47% (over representation) taking into account planned areas. In Table 3 these differences have been calculated for other vegetation types. The total area needed to satisfy conservation targets for all vegetation types, according to Table 2, is 265543.33 ha which equals to 16.17% of the study area. This is approximately two times of existing statutory PAs (7.43%) and a little more than total area currently is under protection in both statutory and planned PAs (14.76%). In terms of plants species, Gheisari with 487 out of 923 species exist in the study area seems to be the richest and most diverse area, followed by Sabz-Kooh with 433, Sheida with 401, and Tang-e Sayyad with 250 species. However, in terms of representing endemic/rare plant species, Sabz-Kooh contains 11 species, followed by Gheisari with 7, Sheida with 5, Tang-e Sayyad 3 and Helen with 1 species. Most concentration of endemic/rare plants species exist in Kallar Mount adjacent to Sabz-Kooh protected area and Bazoft valley in north-east of the study area No study has been done in the same subject or scale of our work in the study area, to the best of our acknowledge, in order to discuss and compare results, however Makhdoum (2008) in a similar study in the scale of country pointed out the conservation gaps in Irano-Turanian floristic region especially Zagros Mountains floristic province which is an endemism center of the country. Our findings approve these gaps in a finer scale. There are some differences between our results and studies which have been conducted in finer scales (1:50,000) such as Barresi-e Manab-e Ab (2002) and Varz-Boom (2002) in terms of the number and kinds of vegetation types across the study area and within the PAs. These differences could be a result of scale movement in which conglomeration of smaller types is inevitable. It also could be due to the dynamic nature of vegetation types in which plants species composition change during time. Consequently, one season that sampling is unable to record all this variability is because these studies were done at different times and as a consequence the scales show different results. There are also important differences among vegetation types in terms of satisfied conservation targets, especially between rangeland and forest types. This could be due to this fact that most parts of the study area covered by rangelands (55%) and therefore PAs have biases toward rangeland types. For example Astragalus susianus - Cousinia cylindracea and Scariola orientalis - Astragalus spp. with +73.65 and +55.33 have the most over-representation respectively (see Table 3). It also because forest types like Amygdalus orientalis and Quercus brantii are distributed in a much broader range than the study area, so they might be protected in a satisfied level in other areas. Although the planned (forbidden hunting) areas are established originally for protecting animals species, but they have an important role in filling some conservation gaps of vegetation types and endemic/rare plants species. But, even with adding all planned areas to statutory PAs, still important gaps remain in vegetation types conservation, as 19 out of 36 vegetation types and 24 out of 52 endemic/rare plants species are not represented in statutory or planned PAs originally. In a comprehensive conservation gap analysis it is important to consider entire Zagros floristic province, especially for vegetation types which extended throughout the region. The number of common vegetation types between Sabz-Kooh and Helen PAs (4 types) which are in closest distance and most similar in environment, Sabz-Kooh and Tang-e Sayyad (2 types) which are more distant and Helen and Tang-e Sayyad (0 type) which are most distant; approve the possibility of using ""Environmental Distance"" as biodiversity surrogate as Faith and Walker (1996) pointed out. Relatively good plant species richness of Sabz-Kooh PA as well as Gheisari and Sheida planned areas could be the result of conservation which is provided better condition for plants regeneration compared to other areas. In other words these areas have not been richer than neighboring areas originally (Oldfield et al., 2004). Meanwhile, the number of plants species counted in an area (richness), which highly depends on sampling intensity, does not provide a good measure for biodiversity representativeness. However existing PAs have explicit biases toward high altitudes which provide appropriate conditions for alpine and sub alpine endemic/rare plants species. Nourozi et al., (2008) have shown this and our findings indicate similar evidences. So, there are conservation gaps for endemic/rare plants species scattered in lower altitudes. In order to fill these gaps it needs to review existing PAs boundaries to encompass lower altitudes or consider a complementary fine scale approach for adding new PAs to current network.",,77-88,,54,36,,J.

Using biophysical modelling and genetic analyses, we assessed potential and realized connectivity among MPA populations of a benthic foundation species, the Mediterranean endemic seagrass Posidonia oceanica. Location: Adriatic and Ionian seas (central Mediterranean). Methods: We assessed potential and realized connectivity among eight P. oceanica meadows, mostly located in MPAs. Potential connectivity was assessed over a time horizon of 10 years via an individual-based biophysical model whose physical component relies on fine-scale spatio-temporal ocean circulation fields. Genetic assessments of realized connectivity were carried out by means of a set of 14 neutral microsatellite loci, as well as a larger dataset of 19 loci including outlier loci that did not conform to expectations under neutrality. Results: Our findings point out a relatively high potential connectivity through long-range dispersal of floating fruits. Genetic connectivity analyses show a complex scenario with an apparent lower realized connectivity. The P. oceanica meadow within Torre Guaceto MPA (TOG), a well-enforced MPA within our study area, showed one of the highest levels of genotypic richness, indicative of high levels of sexual reproduction and/or recruitment of foreign genotypes. Both biophysical modelling and population genetics indicate that TOG is important to ensure the viability of the species at the local scale, and does likely play a key role as a source of propagules for the whole Adriatic area. Main conclusions: Our results show that realized dispersal does not necessarily match with the potential for dispersal. Still, both genetic and physical connectivity analyses show good agreement in identifying hotspots of connectivity. Such information can guide management of networks of MPAs and advance conservation of marine biodiversity. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,1423-1434,,12,23,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,biodiversity; data set; dispersal; genetic connectivity; genetic variation; Lagrangian; marine environment; marine protected areas; meadow; population genetics; Posidonia oceanica; propagule; propagules; protected area; seagrass; sexual reproduction,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

MPAs have been implemented globally as a conservation tool to improve the health and function of marine ecosystems. Research has focused on assessing MPA effectiveness; however, certain habitats and communities are often avoided because they are difficult or expensive to monitor. Mesophotic (30–100 m) rocky reef fish communities are valuable commercial and recreational resources that are highly targeted but often overlooked in monitoring due to depth-restricted sampling. We used 2 MPAs in the statewide protection network of California (USA) that prohibit fishing for these species, along with paired reference sites, to test how protection status along with environmental conditions influenced the abundance and biomass of 3 highly targeted species groups with varying life histories and habitat preferences. Depth and habitat were strong predictors for all groups: ocean whitefish Caulolatilus princeps, California sheephead Semicossyphus pulcher, and targeted rockfish (Sebastes spp.). However, the pattern of these effects differed between the species groups, and the influence of protection was mixed. This work highlights how species with high habitat affinities benefit differently from protection, as a function of depth and habitat representation within the MPA/reference pair. To accurately evaluate MPAs, and the network as a whole, researchers must recognize organism–habitat relationships and incorporate them when assessing conservation efforts. © The authors 2024.

In January 2020 the Republic of Palau, concerned about the impacts of longline fishing in its waters, closed 80% of its exclusive economic zone to all extractive activities, reserving the remaining 20% for a domestic fishing zone (DFZ). One of a growing number of very large marine protected areas, the Palau National Marine Sanctuary (PNMS) spans ?500,000 km2 and was established inter alia to allow for the recovery of fish stocks adversely impacted by tuna longline fleets. Given that the main tuna stocks targeted in the western Pacific are not overexploited, the benefits of protection potentially afforded by the sanctuary are likely greater for vulnerable bycatch species. Evaluations of the sanctuary’s performance require, in part, a baseline of historical catch rates and effort distribution in the distant-water fleet (DWF) and locally based fleet (LBF) operating in Palau prior to sanctuary implementation. We describe the fishing effort, catch rates, catch estimates and fishing mortality in Palau’s longline fishery based on logbook, observer and electronic monitoring data. We defined bycatch as any species, retained or discarded, other than targeted tunas. Between 2010 and 2020, 104.8 million hooks were deployed, catching over 2 million individuals from 117 taxa at an overall target:bycatch ratio of 1:1, with a retention rate of ?62%. Pronounced differences in fishing strategies and spatial distribution of effort between fleets were associated with large variations in catch rates and composition. The LBF had a larger effect on populations of at-risk species relative to the DWF, with higher catch rates and magnitudes for several vulnerable species and higher observable fishing mortality rates (64% vs 50% in the DWF). The sanctuary reshaped Palau’s longline fishery, contracting the fishery’s area and capacity. The relocation of the DFZ eliminated the LBF and constrained the DWF to an area where the fleet’s total catch rates and those of a number of vulnerable species were historically lower relative to former fishing grounds now closed by the sanctuary. Our results highlight the importance of consistent bycatch monitoring and emphasize the need for regional area-based approaches for managing longline fisheries. © Copyright © 2021 Jaiteh, Peatman, Lindfield, Gilman and Nicol.",,,,,8,,Front.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are an environmental tool that, by ensuring a higher level of protection within a defined geographical area, can benefit conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity. To ensure conservation of marine biological diversity, a number of states have committed themselves to establishing a coherent network of MPAs within 2012, an objective endorsed also by the Arctic states. In this chapter, political developments with regard to the establishment of MPAs within and outside of national jurisdiction and legal obligations applicable to the marine Arctic are examined. Despite having both legal obligations and political initiative, there is currently no network of MPAs in the marine Arctic. To ensure implementation of global obligations in the Arctic region, there is a need for further operationalization and clarification of scientific criteria for the selection and designation of sites that may contribute to a future network of MPAs. To fulfill the objective of an ecologically coherent network of MPAs in the marine Arctic, stronger efforts must also be made by the Arctic states through the Arctic Council. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2014.

In Southeast Asia, most of the pristine tropical forest habitats are limited to terrestrial protected areas such as national parks and wildlife reserves. Endau Rompin National Park (ERNP) is one of undisturbed biodiversity-hotspots in the southern region of Peninsular Malaysia but surrounded by industrial oil palm plantations and threatened by habitat fragmentation. To date, little is known about the distribution and habitat requirement of wildlife, including those conservation priority species in the ERNP. This study aims to investigate the mammal distribution in the ERNP by estimating the probability of occurrence of a species among sampled sites. At 24 camera-trapping sites, we used passive infrared camera traps to detect the forest wildlife. We estimated wildlife occupancy by using single-season occupancy analysis while considering of imperfect detection and relating it to stand- and landscape-level variables. We detected 26 species of native wild animals in the study area including several conservation priority species such as Asian elephant, Asian tapir, and Malayan tiger. The site occupancy of conservation-priority species attests to ERNP's status as an important regional biodiversity hotspot. The detection probabilities of wildlife species were highly sensitive to specific ecological variables at stand- and landscape-level. Our data indicated that tree canopy cover, forest edges, adjacent human settlements, and riparian habitats (e.g., stream and river) are crucial for the persistence of the native wildlife species. Our results suggest that pristine forest habitat such as those typical to the ERNP are critical for wildlife conservation. We suggest that the stand- and landscape-level ecological variables are considered in the conservation planning to protect the forest biodiversity and ecological integrity of the national park and other terrestrial protected areas in the tropics. © 2023",,,,,75,,J.

The aim of this study was to examine variability in community structure, relative abundance (catch per unit effort, CPUE) and size frequency of the shore-angling fish assemblage in this no-take MPA. A total effort of 8 141 angler hours yielded 8 236 fish of at least 54 species from 19 families. The overall CPUE showed no significant trend over time (r2 = 0.015, p = 0.1). The interannual variation in CPUE indicated relatively stable populations for some species (e.g. blacktail Diplodus capensis) and patterns of recruitment failure for others (e.g. galjoen Dichistius capensis). However, the lack of a significant trend in taxonomic distinctness (r2 = 0.008, p = 0.8), the stable rank order of species abundance (?2, r = 361, p < 0.05) and the high coefficient of concordance (W = 0.84) indicated a relatively stable fish assemblage. This was attributed to the extended length of protection afforded by this MPA. One noticeable trend was an increase in the abundance of species with an affinity for warm water and whereas this correlated to an annual increase in water temperature of 0.024 °C between 1998 and 2005, a longer time-series is necessary to identify rise in sea temperature (climate change) as a driver of change in this warm-temperate fish assemblage. © 2012 Copyright NISC (Pty) Ltd.",,15-26,,1,34,,Afr.

So MPAs can be effective conservation tools, we recommend two paradigm shifts, the first related to how they are located and the second related to how they are managed. MPAs are unlikely to be effective if they are located in areas that are subject to numerous, and often uncontrollable, external stressors from atmospheric, terrestrial, and oceanic sources, all of which can degrade the environment and compromise protection. MPA effectiveness is also limited by low institutional and community capacity for management and inappropriate size with respect to ecological needs. In particular, the check list approach to management does not ensure that key threats are dealt with, or that management expenditures provide a quantifiable return. We recommend a business planning approach to MPA management, in which managers focus on the viability of the management system, i.e., the ability of the MPA to provide ecological goods and services to its target users over the long term. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Generally, participatory research in marine protected area management is exploring the relationship between marine protected area management approach adopted by the management agencies and the level of participation of local stakeholder whom reside within the marine protected areas. However, the scenario of local community participation in MPA management in Malaysia seems discouraging and does not align with the International Aichi Biodiversity Target 2020. In order to achieve the International Aichi Biodiversity Target 2020, this paper attempts to explore the methodology on participatory research towards the local stakeholder of Pulau Perhentian Marine Park (PPMP), Terengganu, Malaysia. A Q-methodology is used to investigate the perspective of local stakeholder who represents different stances on the issues, by having participants rank and sort a series of statements by comply quantitative and qualitative method in collecting the data. A structured questionnaire will be employed across this study by means of face-to-face interview. In total, 210 respondents from Kampung Pasir Hantu are randomly selected. Meanwhile, a workshop with the agency (Department of Marine Park) had been held to discuss about the issues faces on behalf of management that manage the PPMP. Using the Q-method, researcher acknowledged wise viewpoints, reflecting how different stakeholders' perception and opinion about community participation with highlights the current level of community participation in MPA.

They may also play an important role in mitigating climate change. A variety of climate change solutions are rooted in the ocean, centered primarily around “blue carbon” and the capacity of marine life to sequester carbon dioxide (CO2) with some potential to reduce emissions. However, the global potential of these solutions remains misunderstood and untapped. Here, we analyze the potential impact on carbon removal and emissions reduction of adopting six ocean-based solutions in MPAs: coastal wetlands protection, coastal wetlands restoration, macroalgae protection, macroalgae restoration, seafloor protection, and seaweed farming. The carbon removal and avoided emissions achieved by implementing these solutions globally through 2060 were estimated using meta-analysis of existing studies. Applying all six ocean solutions under global implementation scenarios yields total emissions reduction by 2060 of 16.2 ± 1.82 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (GtCO2-eq) for the plausible scenario and 24.8 ± 2.46 GtCO2-eq for the ambitious scenario. That equates to around 2% of the total carbon mitigation needed to meet the Paris Agreement goals of limiting global warming to 2 °C by 2050. Around 70% of this reduction is attributable to carbon removal and 30% to avoided emissions. Enhancing MPAs’ blue carbon potential could be a key contributor to drawing down carbon and could provide many additional benefits to the marine environment and human society, such as rebuilding biodiversity and sustaining food production. However, more regional-scale studies are needed to inform the best strategies for preserving and enhancing carbon removal in ocean sinks. Copyright © 2022 the Author(s).",,,,23,119,,Proc. Natl. Acad.

Results showed that NTMPA has high productivity and profitability in relation to two of the three fishing resources allowed, which are among the most important local resources. Although the agreement established is valuable, it has limitations: transitory nature, and strict rules.

This study aims to analyze the suitability of restocking locations for Lola based on the appropriateness of environmental parameter quality with Lola density in the water. This research was conducted in April - May 2021 in Badi Island, Pangkep Regency. The data collected includes environmental parameters and lola density. The research stations were determined using purposive sampling methods based on indicators of the presence of coral reefs, which are Lola's habitat. The observation stations were divided into two based on environmental characteristics: station 1 in the coral transplant area and station 2 in the natural coral reef area. Lola density data was collected using the swept area method with an observation distance of 30 meters forward and a sweep of 5 meters to the left and right at each repetition. Observation was carried out in 3 repetitions at each station, and each repetition had an interval of 5 meters. The research result showed that Lola density in Badi island ranged from 0.00056 - 0.00278 ind/m2, and the environmental parameter suitability ranged from 84 - 94%.

We analyzed how cost-effective global MPA expansion has been since the inception of the first global target (set in 1982) in achieving ecoregional representation. By comparing spatial patterns of MPA expansion against optimal MPA estates using the same expansion rates, we show the current MPA estate is both expensive and ineffective. Although the number of ecoregions represented tripled and 12.7% of national waters was protected, 61% of ecoregions and 81% of countries are not 10% protected. Only 10.3% of the national waters of the world would be sufficient to protect 10% of each ecoregion if MPA growth since 1982 strategically targeted underrepresented ecoregions. Unfortunately 16.3% of national waters are required for the same representative target if systematic protection started in 2016 (an extra 3.6% on top of 12.7%). To avoid the high costs of adjusting increasingly biased MPA systems, future efforts should embrace target-driven systematic conservation planning. © 2018 The Authors.

Aichi Target 11 of the Convention on Biological Diversity called for 17 % of land area and 10 % of marine area to be conserved in ecologically representative protected areas by 2020. We assess progress in protecting terrestrial and marine ecoregions for the decade 2011–2020, when the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011–2020 was in effect. Using spatial analyses and the mean target achievement metric, which indicates the degree to which a given representation target has been achieved, we analyze protected area coverage in nine countries from all continents, with a total of 173 terrestrial and 64 marine ecoregions. Results show that there is little evidence that the countries studied have strategically protected underrepresented ecoregions in the 2011–2020 decade. Although 170.000 km˛ of terrestrial and 3 million km˛ of marine reserves have been designated during this period in the nine countries investigated, about half of their terrestrial and marine ecoregions remain poorly protected in 2020. Our findings reinforce that targeted action is needed to adequately protect ecoregions in order for the new Kunming-Montreal target 3 to be more successful than Aichi target 11.

There is a lack of information on the mechanisms and effectiveness of this management system in meeting fisheries and ecosystem sustainability goals.A before-after-control-impact (BACI) pair design, was used to quantify flight initiation distance (FID), and biomass of two fishery-target (Acanthuridae and Scaridae) and one non-target (Chaetodontidae) families in two periodically harvested closures, two no-take marine reserves, and two open fished areas, prior to and after harvest of the periodically harvested closures. Creel surveys were used to quantify catch per unit effort (CPUE) in open fishing grounds, and during the periodic harvests.Before harvest, FID of targeted families was higher in fished areas than periodically harvested areas. After harvest, Acanthuridae FID in periodically harvested closures increased significantly to beyond the maximum effective range of spearguns. Total biomass of fishes was lower in fished areas than areas under either type of management. Acanthuridae biomass in the periodically harvested closures was similar to fished areas, and lower than in the no-take reserves. There was no difference post-harvest for either total or Acanthuridae biomass.CPUE was higher for fishing trips inside the periodically harvested closures than regular fishing activities. Fishes were generally larger in catches from periodically harvested closures, but this was not sufficient to account for the increase in CPUE, particularly of the Acanthuridae, which were significantly more abundant in the harvest catch.When fishes are protected temporarily from fishing, their wariness decreases, which makes them more easily catchable when fishing is reinstated. This study shows that fish behavioural change is an important and overlooked benefit of periodically harvested closures. However, differences in the magnitude of behavioural changes between fishery-target families may result in contrasting outcomes of periodically harvested management regimes. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,777-790,,6,24,,Aquatic Conserv.

Faced with this critical situation, the services of ""APAL"" in Tunisia (Coastal Protection and Planning Agency of Tunisia) opted for the rehabilitation of hundreds of hectares of sand dunes to reduce the magnitude of this scourge. The rehabilitation of the dunes cords was made by utilizing the multiple technique of protection (Implanting a wooden fence to protect the dune ecosystem, using ganivelles techniques for mechanical dune stabilization, installing of pipelines flows (roads) for the passage of summer visitors and the creation of ecological tours). The aim of the present work was to evaluate the impact of using these rehabilitation techniques on floristic diversity in the dunes of Korba (Cap Bon, Tunisia). The methodological approach adopted is that of evaluating floristic biodiversity on protected dunes and other neighboring areas located outside the protected area. The phytosociological plots were sampled basing on the methods of Braun-Blanquet, including the original cover-abundance scale. Data analysis shows the beneficial effect of rehabilitation on the structure, the composition and functioning of these coastal dunes and psammophile vegetation. Indeed, the protection increased floristic richness, species diversity (as indicated by Shannon-Weaver index) and the floristic composition, particularly palatable species: Ammophila arenaria, Cynodon dactylon, Retama raetam, Thymelaea hirsuta and Euphorbia paralias.

Results suggested that WSTs such as Groasis Waterboxx® may provide on-farm benefits regarding the yields of the studied traits. From this study, it is difficult to determine whether participation in such a research study will permanently change irrigation practices.

Due to the variety of tourist sites around the four large inhabited islands, there is an increase in national and foreign tourists (267,688 people in 2022), which may cause deterioration of the tourist facilities if not adequately monitored or regulated. This study aims to evaluate the tourism carrying capacity of 15 geosites on Santa Cruz Island, Galapagos, through qualitative and quantitative information for the sustainable enhancement and optimal use of geotourism. Field visits were made to collect data and information from each of the 15 geosites, and the tourism carrying capacity was calculated and evaluated using a methodology proposed by several authors for the development of sustainable geotourism strategies. In the evaluation of the carrying capacity, the visitor numbers varied between 500 and 2,000 per day, with Tortuga Bay and Playa ‘El Garrapatero’ standing out for their large size to accommodate tourists and adequate geotourism facilities. This analysis and evaluation allowed us to propose improvement strategies to promote and optimise the use of geosites based on geotourism, geo-education and geoconservation pillars. A fundamental axis is governmental participation through plans that motivate awareness-raising and sustainable tourism, as well as geocommunication of the unique values of each geosite, to argue technically for the sustainability of natural heritage. © 2024 WIT Press.",,127-138,,,263,,WIT Trans.

Action for Dolphins and World Animal Protection (animal welfare charities) wished to investigate the present hydrodynamic conditions within the Coffs Harbour basin with the aim of evaluating the possibility of creating a dolphin sanctuary. The NSW government's Manly Hydraulics Laboratory (MHL) was commissioned to undertake a feasibility study, including the assessment of coastal processes and the development of concept design options for a dolphin facility. The dolphins to be relocated to the sanctuary are currently living in Dolphin Marine Magic, a marine park located 2 km north of Coffs Harbour. The investigation was based on the wave climate within Coffs Harbour which in turn was based on over two decades of field data, physical and numerical models carried out by MHL. This data indicates that the sanctuary will require an additional structure on the southern side of the harbour which provides shelter during extreme offshore conditions. In order to come up with the three concept designs, the results obtained from a 3D physical model assessing both the swell and seiche (>30 s) for a number of development options carried out in MHL's wave basin were utilised.

The author has presented the tendencies of agricultural development, the essence of ecological agriculture, localization conditions and a short characteristics of ecological farms. A special attention has been drawn to the basic localization conditions, barriers, chances and perspectives of its developmmen. An analysis of the development tendencies of the present agriculture induces us to distinguish two basic models: 1) industralized agriculture aiming at further intensification of production based on the development of biotechnology, chemical and technical action, productivity and yield of marketable agricultural produce; 2) ecological agriculture characterized by agricultural production increase on the basis of natural processes occurring in the ecosystem and quality improvement of products, and preservation of ecological equilibrium. Due to differentiated natural environment, the demographic situation of rural areas, the structure of the property and size of farms, as well as spatial differentiation of the future ecological, social and economic condition of the development - the chances of ecological agriculture differ in the particular regions of the country. Poland has both areas of ecological disaster in which not only man but aslo other organisms are threatened, as well as areas free from pollution (Fig. 1). Owing to the areas which are still unpolluted or not degraded and small farms existing in harmony with the environment, al well as to considerable human resources in agriculture, our country has a chance to develop ecological agriculture. Food production by ecological methods can be conducted in all regions of Poland which have an uncontaminated environment and farmers able to meet high requirements of ecological agriculture. However, this system should be particularly preferred in protective zones of drinking water intake, envelopes of national parks and landscape parks (Fig. 2), in touristic-recreational regions. In these areas a change of the agricultural model is necessary to avoid collision with the ecological function. Among many factors determining localization of ecological agriculture the most important are: 1) the level of social-economic development associated with demand for healthy food. 2) man (farm manager) and the surroundings. 3) external conditions limiting (polluted environment, transport) or promoting (uncontaminated environment, protected areas) localization of ecological farms. No of the mentioned factors acts independently, and their relationships are additionally complicated by their variations in time and space. Ecological agriculture in Poland is still in its initial development phase. In mid 1995, ecological attestation was granted 296 farms (225 by EKOLAND - seated in Przysiek near Toru? and 53 by The Polish Society of Ecological Agriculture [PTRE] in Lublin). Moreover, in both institutions 221 farms were registered in the period of transformation to ecological production. The ecological farms differ in many features from conventional ones (Table 1, Fig. 3, 4). The chances of ecological farms to develop in Poland are estimated, largely by ecologists, very optimistically. Those advocating ecological agriculture see them in conjunction of factors which were considered until quite lately as inhibiting progress and manifesting obscurantism. They think that Polish agriculture has a chance to transform its retarded development consisting largely in overpopulation and small farm-holding by using ecological production methods in small family farms to make them prosperous. The development chances of ecological agriculture in Poland should be looked for in favourable economic, social and natural conditions.",,258-260,,03-Apr,69,,Prz.

Despite the importance of sustainably managing biodiversity to support fisheries, less than 1% of Aotearoa's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) is protected in marine reserves, and Benthic Protection Areas, which cover 28% of the EEZ, are inefficiently placed, providing limited biodiversity and fisheries benefits. Here, we provide a spatial analysis of the Aotearoa EEZ, determining optimal areas that balance marine conservation with the minimal displacement of fishing. We define the minimum length of a big old fat fecund female fish (BOFFFF) for three commercially important exploited species, and use boosted regression trees to determine areas of high reproductive potential. Model results were then used to incorporate reproductive potential into systematic conservation planning. We used the decision-support software Zonation to consider the distribution of threatened species hotspots, biodiversity, and BOFFFFs against fishing catch (all commercially exploited species) and high-value fisheries (10 commercially exploited species) to determine priority areas for marine protection. Results showed that threatened species, biodiversity, and areas with high reproductive potential could be conserved with little impact on fishing catch (86% maintained) and value (87% maintained), though high-value fisheries were found to have greater overlap with biodiversity. Our research indicates that trade-offs with fisheries need not impede the designation of protected areas required to achieve conservation and fisheries sustainability goals. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,246,,Ocean Coast.

However, marine biodiversity is declining. Marine protected areas and marine reserves have been used to protect biodiversity, conserve threatened species and rebuild exploited species, but are perceived as restrictive to fishing, which has slowed progress towards ocean protection targets. Here, we perform a spatial prioritisation of the ocean to protect biodiversity, threatened species and food security. Food security was quantified using catch in tonnes per km2, per 0.5-degree cell of the ocean, using data from the Sea Around Us, a global database of industrial, artisanal, subsistence, and recreational fishing catches. Using Representative Biodiversity Areas [RBAs (the top 30% of the ocean based on holistic measures of biodiversity)], maps of 974 threatened species, and catch data for 2,170 exploited species, we find that these multiple, competing objectives are achievable with minimal compromise. Protecting 30% of the ocean using a multi-objective solution could protect 89% of RBAs, 89% of threatened species and maintain access to fishing grounds that provide 89% of global catch. Even when prioritising food security above conservation objectives we find significant protection for biodiversity and threatened species (85% RBAs, 73% threatened species). We highlight four exploited species for improved management, as they are consistently caught in areas of high conservation importance (skipjack tuna, Katsuwonus pelamis; yellowfin tuna, Thunnus albacares; Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua; Chilean jack mackerel, Trachurus murphyi). We show that a globally coordinated approach to marine conservation and food security is necessary, as regional scale strategies are shown to be less efficient and may result in conflict between food security and conservation objectives. Our results add support for calls to protect 30% of the ocean by 2030, and show where protection would best protect food security and conserve biodiversity and threatened species.

The aim was to assess the opportunities, barriers and potential for developing a more holistic seafood production system and to generate information for future policies and programs. A review of the current situation of the inshore fleet reveals recent economic hardships, decreasing employment opportunities, displacement and reduction in size of fishing grounds as a result of management measures including the creation of marine protected areas (MPAs). A subsequent literature review of fishers either switching from wild capture fisheries to aquaculture or integrating it into their business model indicates that there is a complex mixture of barriers including regulatory, social and economic factors that hinder fishers’ uptake of aquaculture. However, assessment of current integration examples of aquaculture and wild-capture sectors within the UK revealed many instances where fishers have successfully added aquaculture to their business portfolio. Results show that to meet increased demand, a supportive policy environment needs to be created along with clarification and simplification of the processes for acquiring space including clear guidelines of which types of aquaculture can be practised where, and clarification of the rules for aquaculture in and around MPAs. Areas of further work are suggested including assessment of cultural issues surrounding switching or integration and the provision of funding to test potential approaches. It is concluded that government regulatory policies along with social acceptance will play a crucial role in creating a more holistic seafood production system and for marine aquaculture to fulfil its potential via integration with capture fisheries. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,202,,Ocean Coast.

Changes in habitat condition must be reliably identified and reported to best support evidence-based management. Biogenic reefs in temperate waters, that is, hard matter created by living organisms and raised above the seabed, provide food and shelter for many plant and animal species. This article explores the feasibility of habitat mapping, using remote sensing datasets, as well as metrics for repeatable and suitable assessment of areas of Sabellaria spinulosa for their status as biogenic reef. Data were gathered within the North Norfolk Sandbanks and Saturn Reef candidate Special Area of Conservation/Site of Community Importance in the southern North Sea. Six study areas were identified as potential locations of biogenic reef using previously acquired data, and these were targeted for further investigation using a combination of high resolution multibeam echosounder and sidescan sonar. Where potential S. spinulosa was identified from the acoustic data, a drop-down camera system was employed for visual verification. Areas of known and potential S. spinulosa reef were mapped successfully at two of the six study areas, although future approaches should take careful consideration of the seabed morphology and predominant habitat backdrop to successfully interpret such data. Camera tows from S. spinulosa reef areas were broken up into 5-s segments, with each segment scored for (a) average tube elevation; (b) average percentage cover; and (c) for the presence or absence of S. spinulosa. These metrics were utilized to create summary statistics, including a value of patchiness derived from presence/absence data, that is recommended for application as part of future monitoring programs. The application of this methodology could benefit wider assessments of similar threated or declining habitats such as intertidal Mytilus edulis beds on mixed and sandy sediments, Maerl beds, Modioulus modiolus beds, Ostrea edulis beds, and Zostera beds where patchiness may also be considered of environmental importance. © 2018 Crown copyright.

On land, the protecting of areas with low biodiversity and under little threat, rather than biodiversity hotspots, is a well-known problem. Prudence suggests that we not repeat this pattern in the ocean. Here we assessed patterns of global marine biodiversity by evaluating the protections of 4352 species for which geographic ranges are known, and mapping priority areas using an index that considers species vulnerability, coverage by marine protected areas (MPAs), and human impacts. Species have, on average, only 3.6% of their range protected. Moreover, species of conservation concern (threatened, small-ranged, and data deficient) have less protection than species on average. Only 5 nations currently protect 10% or more of their exclusive economic zone (EEZ) as strict Marine Reserves (IUCN category I–IV) in accord with the 2020 Aichi Biodiversity Targets. One nation by itself, Australia, accounts for 65% of the global area of Marine Reserves. The Coral Triangle is the clear and dominant global priority for biodiversity, but we identify additional global and regional priorities in each ocean basin. As an example, we show that for the United States, the Marianas and Samoan Islands are the top marine conservation priorities. Despite recent advances, the world has yet to protect most of the area and species that need it. Where to protect those species, however, is increasingly clear. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,333-339,,,204,,Biol.

In the Kilombero Valley, Tanzania, miombo woodland is converted into teak plantations and small, private farms, but the impact of this habitat change on wildlife populations is poorly understood. We assessed the frequency of habitat use of large mammals in teak plantations of different age during the wet season. Vegetation structure varied significantly with age; older plantations had larger trees, a more extensive shrub layer and a well-developed leaf litter. Younger plantations had smaller trees and larger areas of short vegetation and bare ground. Track surveys revealed that older plantations were predominantly used by bush pig Potamochoerus larvatus, bushbuck Tragelaphus scriptus and duiker (Cephalophus harveyii, C. natalensis or Sylvicarpa grimmia), whilst the younger plantations were used by open-habitat specialists such as warthog Phacochoerus africanus and waterbuck Kobus ellipsiprymnus. Proximity to the flood plain was also found to be important and plantations nearest this area contained significantly more tracks of large grazers and bulk feeders, reflecting use by zebra Equus burchelli, buffalo Syncerus caffer and waterbuck. Areas of miombo woodland that have been converted into teak plantations provide suitable habitat for wildlife in the Kilombero Valley, but their conservation value diminishes with time. Future management should therefore aim to maintain the patchwork of miombo woodland and teak plantations in order to provide suitable habitat for a range of wildlife. Where possible, teak plantations should not be situated close to the boundary of the miombo woodland and flood plain because this habitat is an important wet season refuge for wildlife during the wet season.",,975-990,,5,12,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Bubalus; Cephalophus; Cephalophus natalensis; conservation management; Equus; Equus burchellii; exploitation; Flood plain; floodplain; Grimmia; habitat conservation; habitat structure; Habitat structure; habitat use; Kobus ellipsiprymnus; mammal; Mammalia; Mammals; Miombo; Phacochoerus africanus; plantation; Plantations; Potamochoerus larvatus; Sus scrofa; Syncerus caffer; Tanzania; Teak; Tectona grandis; Tragelaphus; Tragelaphus scriptus,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

When can ""principles"" support advice on fisheries and environmental management? - ICES Journal of Marine Science, 70: 726-733.Demands for advice on fisheries and environmental management often outstrip scientists' capacity to supply it. The imbalance would be smaller if some of the advice could be based on principles rather than tailored case-by-case analyses, where I define principles as ""evidence-based rules that underpin scientific advice on management options and reduce uncertainty about decisions and outcomes with fewer resources than tailored case-by-case analyses"". I consider the role, development, existing and potential uses, strengths and weaknesses of principles in underpinning advice, and how principles might complement methodological innovations and risk assessment. The extent to which principles might replace case-by-case analyses is expected to depend on structures and processes in the management system, particularly the treatment of uncertainty and risk. If advice based on principles is seen as less salient, credible, and legitimate than advice developed from case-by-case analyses then this could lead to political push-back or non-compliance with management measures, transferring costs from the advisory process to other parts of the management system. In general, I propose that principles provide the greatest benefits in a management system when they address complex advisory issues that lead to advice on management measures with relatively small social and economic consequences or when they simplify parts of an advisory process leading to management measures with a range of consequences. Notwithstanding limits on their application, further development and uptake of principles could reduce demands for case-by-case advice on fisheries and environmental management. A formalized challenge, testing, and updating process for principles, supported by an audit trail, would encourage and increase their use. The development of principles would provide a new focus for the targeting, review, and uptake of research. Spatial planning initiatives, the emergence of marine protected area networks, and other changes in management measures can be treated as experiments to inform development and testing of principles. © 2013 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.",,726-733,,4,70,,ICES J.

These objectives reflect political and societal views, and increasingly reconcile fishery and conservation concerns, a consequence of common high-level drivers, such as the World Summit on Sustainable Development. The contribution of MPAs to meeting objectives should be assessed in conjunction with other tools, taking account of the management systems of which they are part. Many of the same factors determine the success of MPAs and other management tools, such as quality of governance and the social and economic situation of people using marine goods and services. Diverse legislation governs MPA designation. Designation could be simplified by prearranged and prenegotiated agreements among all relevant authorities. Agreements could specify how to make trade-offs among objectives, interpret scientific advice, ensure effective engagement among authorities and stakeholders, deal with appeals, and support progressive improvement. The jurisdiction and competence of fishery management authorities mean that they are well placed to contribute to the design, designation, and enforcement of MPAs. Their strengths include well-established procedures for accessing scientific advice, the capacity to work across multiple jurisdictions, experience with MPA management, and access to vessels and personnel for enforcement.

Marine protected areas play a key role in the existing management strategy and yet there is little quantitative understanding of the benefits they may provide. We compare the biomass and species richness of fish assemblages on coral and granitic reef habitats in four areas which receive different levels of protection from fishing and other human activities. Species richness of the total fish community, biomass of the total fish community and species richness and biomass of many families were higher on both coralline and granitic reefs in two marine protected areas where protective regulations were effectively enforced. However, the biomass of the three principal families of fishes targeted by the fishery was significantly lower in one of these areas. This was attributed to illegal fishing and the fishing concessions offered to local people. We conclude that poaching and minor fishing concessions did not affect the aspects of the fish community which are important to most tourist visitors (biomass and overall species richness), but that they have a statistically significant effect on the structure of the fish community. Furthermore, whilst a small well-patrolled area will provide an effective refuge from fishing, it will often be stocked by larval fishes which are the progeny of adults living many kilometres away. As such, the protected area cannot operate in isolation to maintain biomass and diversity. A valid long-term aim of reserve management may be to assure the protection of a greater proportion of Seychelles' fishes throughout their life history. This may be achieved if current plans for the management of marine protected areas can be instituted. Copyright © 1996 Elsevier Science Limited. All rights reserved.",,201-209,,3,75,,Biol.

Location: Tropical and subtropical beaches around the world. Methods: We analysed 386 base pairs of the mitochondrial (mt)DNA control region of 4,878 individual nesting green turtle samples from 127 rookeries globally. We used phylogeographic analysis to assess how demographic history, dispersal and barriers to gene flow have led to the current distribution of mtDNA lineages. Results: We identified 11 divergent lineages that were tied to specific biogeographical regions. The phylogenetic analyses revealed an ancient origin for the species centred in the Indo-Pacific and more recent colonization of the Central/Eastern Pacific as well as the Atlantic Basin. Overall the phylogeographic structure was strong but with a clear pattern of regional connectivity among rookeries. A Large genetic separation was found where there were obvious barriers to dispersal such as between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and across the Pacific Ocean, as well as less obvious barriers to dispersal. Admixture of mtDNA haplotype lineages was detected at latitudinal extremes across the Indian Ocean and western Pacific Ocean resulting in these areas being nucleotide diversity hotspots. The highest regional genetic diversity and high endemic richness was observed in the SW Pacific, NW Pacific, SW Indian and NW Indian oceans. Main conclusions: Past climatic fluctuations greatly affected the distribution of genetic diversity in the highly migratory green turtle. Our data suggest that past climatic events influenced local populations in different ways and the species appears to have survived the last glaciations in multiple glacial refugia. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,860-870,,5,46,,J.

Some are aimed at protection, some are intended as resource management tools, while others imply both of these objectives, as well as others. Regardless of the stated goals, the same MPA can mean different things to different people, and these meanings may be inconsistent. In practice, MPA goals are not always stated clearly, and even if they are, they do not necessary align well with what the different actors have in mind. Moreover, the stated goals are not always those that govern the actual operation of MPAs. The priorities of goals may also change over time for stakeholders and for MPAs. In this paper we argue that the goals of MPAs should not be assumed a priori but should be researched empirically. Thus, before we can answer why MPAs succeed or fail in reaching their goals, we must ask what these goals are in the first place and how they came into existence. How are they, for instance, established, negotiated and agreed upon among stakeholders? How do they reflect particular interests, perspectives and power differentials of those involved? Here, we provide a framework for how to analyze the formation, complexity, and displacement of goals in MPAs, presenting three case studies as illustration. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,75-83,,1,54,,Ocean Coast.

The continental waters of North America contain remarkable biodiversity, butmany species face increasing pressure fromoverexploitation, climate change, and other anthropogenic impacts. Canada, Mexico, and the USA have pledged to protect at least 10%of theirmarine and coastal waters by 2020 as signatories to the Convention on Biological Diversity, and havemade efforts to establishMPAs. These MPAs vary widely in terms of levels of protection and designation processes; information that is not reflected in official statistics. To this end, we critically examined progress toward the CBD target for marine protection in continental North American waters to determine how well ocean ecosystems are protected byMPAs. We reviewed government data to determine whether MPAs met four criteria: legal designation, permanence, presence of an administrative structure, and a completed management plan. Sites that met all four criteria were categorized as ""implemented."" Any sites that failed to meet one or more criterion were considered ""incompletely implemented"" and excluded from the analysis. We also calculated the amount of ""fully-protected"" MPAs in which all extractive uses are prohibited. We found that <1% of North America's continental ocean is protected, and only 0.04% is fully-protected. Canada has the least area protected with just 0.11% in implemented MPAs, and 0.01% in fully-protected MPAs. Mexico and the USA have 1.62 and 1.29% in implemented MPAs, and 0.11 and 0.03% in fully-protected MPAs, respectively. Results show that many North American MPAs are incompletely implemented and therefore currently fail to provide adequate protection. The inclusion of such sites in official government statistics can inflate the perception of how much, and how well, the ocean is protected. We outline some of the major challenges to MPA establishment in each country and offer recommendations to increase the number and effectiveness of MPAs in North America. © 2017 Jessen, Morgan, Bezaury-Creel, Barron, Govender, Pike, Saccomanno and Moffitt.",,,,SEP,4,,Front.

Robust, cost-effective sampling of fish assemblages is important in understanding the effects of these management strategies on ocean ecosystems. We compared the sampling effectiveness and efficiencies of three commonly used methods of sampling fish assemblages; underwater visual census (UVC), baited remote underwater stereo-video systems (stereo-BRUVs), and diver operated stereo-video (stereo-DOV) and one emerging method (remotely operated vehicle with stereo-video system (stereo-ROV). We assessed the assemblage composition, numbers of species and individuals, and the statistical power to detect hypothetical changes in the number of species and individuals for each method. Stereo-BRUVs sampled a distinctive assemblage compared to all transect-based methods, with more individuals, total species, and predatory fishes from higher trophic groups that are targeted by commercial and recreational fishers. UVC also sampled a distinctive assemblage compared to stereo-ROV and stereo-BRUVs (comparisons with stereo-DOV were not possible due to sampling restrictions). The fish assemblage sampled by UVC consisted of more species and individuals than stereo-ROV and small bodied or cryptic species that were not detected by the video methods. Although stereo-DOV sampled more individuals than stereo-ROV with differences in small schooling species at a few sites, the assemblage composition was broadly comparable. To effectively monitor MPAs a combination of BRUVs, which more effectively sampled fisheries indicator species, and one of the transect based methods should be used. Given the similarities in the assemblages sampled by the stereo-video transect based methods and the advantages associated with health and safety, logistics and field efficiency with remote methods, we recommend stereo-ROV and stereo-BRUVs. © 2022",,,,,276,,Estuar.

Since the dispersal of larvae plays an integral role in determining whether reserves can sustain themselves, whether they can exchange larvae with other protected sites, or whether they can supplement surrounding exploited areas, effective reserve design requires consideration of the processes that may affect larval dispersal. Plankton tows were conducted monthly for 12 mo in a semi-enclosed marine reserve with long water retention time, in bays with low water retention, and along open coastline, to establish whether larval retention plays an important role in limiting dispersal and creating discrete communities. Significant spatial and temporal differences in larval assemblages were found, with the semi-enclosed reserve, bay, and coast areas showing consistent differences throughout the year. An ANOVA carried out on 11 species identified as differentiating between these areas supported the hypothesis that limited larval exchange was occurring between reserve and non-reserve areas, despite potentially large dispersal distances. Designating bays as reserve areas may provide a means of protecting various species with both long and short dispersal distances, but this must be balanced against the reduced likelihood of closed populations to recover from local catastrophes and the possibility of limited genetic differentiation and inbreeding. © Inter-Research 2007.",,27-36,,,333,,Mar.

Quantitative targets set to meet these aims provide a yardstick with which to measure the current conservation status of biodiversity features and measure the success of conservation actions. Objectives: The conservation targets and current ecosystem status of vegetation types and biomes occurring in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) were assessed, and their level of formal protection was determined, to inform conservation planning initiatives in the province. Method: Land cover maps of the province were used to determine the amount of natural habitat remaining in KZN. This was intersected with the vegetation map and assessed relative to their conservation targets to determine the ecosystem status of each vegetation type in KZN. The proclaimed protected areas were used to determine the level of protection of each vegetation type. Results: In 17 years (1994–2011), 19.7% of natural habitat was lost to anthropogenic conversion of the landscape. The Indian Ocean Coastal Belt and Grassland biomes had the least remaining natural habitat, the highest rates of habitat loss and the least degree of formal protection. Conclusion: These findings inform conservation priorities in the province. Vegetation type targets need to be revised to ensure long-term persistence.

The emergence of Google Earth Engine (GEE) geographic cloud platform has solved the pain points of the industry, where users are strained with computing power. The Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GHM) is considered the study area, and an annual wetland classification data set from 1987 to 2020 is constructed with the support of GEE. It is analyzed for the temporal phase characteristics and spatial expansion process of mangroves, and the result reveals the positive effects of the establishment of protected areas and tidal flat afforestation on the mangrove protection and restoration by combining the accurate time point of change identified by the continuous long time series analysis. The imaging quality of optical images is greatly reduced because the study area is located in a tropical and subtropical cloudy and rainy area. To fully use the satellite remote sensing multitemporal features to effectively eliminate clouds/shadows, all Landsat images during the time period are collected to form a continuous time series. With the support of the GEE cloud platform to satisfy the requirements of computing power for the large amounts of data, the random forest algorithm is applied to obtain the annual wetland classification data set from 1987 to 2020. On this basis, the spatio-temporal characteristics of mangrove over long time are mined. According to the accuracy assessment, the averaged out-of-bag error of wetland data set is 6.61%±0.08%, and the average identification accuracy for mangroves is 89.64%±0.13%. In 2020, the Greater Bay Area has 2,174 ha of mangrove forests, and 81% of the mangrove forests is concentrated in Shenzhen Bay, Qi’ao Island, and Zhenhai Bay. The mangrove forests in the GHM experience steady development (1987—2003) and then rapid growth (2003—2020), the main increase is observed in Zhenhai Bay (40%) and Qi’ao Island (28%). The mangrove forests in Qi’ao Island and Zhenhai Bay are still in a period of rapid growth. However, Qi’ao Island has the fastest growth rate; it has doubled its area by 30 times since 2002. Shenzhen Bay has entered a stable period (2009—2020) after its early rapid growth (1987—2009). Shenzhen Bay became the only mangrove distribution area that formed a stable core area in the GHM due to the early establishment of the reserve. Although Zhenhai Bay has the largest area of mangrove forests, the ecosystem is more fragile because of the narrow width and the fragmented landscape. The establishment of nature reserves and tidal flat afforestation has played an important role in the growth of mangrove area. Integrated monitoring, such as satellites, drones, and ground monitoring, should be incorporated into the mangrove protection and restoration assessment. This study provides scientific evidence support for the implementation of the sustainable development strategy goals of the GHM and has a certain guiding role in the construction of coastal ecological barriers. © 2022 National Remote Sensing Bulletin.

To achieve this goal, eleven Landsat images were chosen and classified, areal extent and landscape metrics were then calculated. The results showed that: From 1973-2015, the areal extent of mangroves in both reserves increased, but the net change for the MPMNR (281.43 hm2) was much higher than those of the FMNNR (101.97 hm2). In general, the area-weighted centroid of the mangroves in FMNNR moved seaward by approximately 120 m, whereas in the MPMNR, the centroid moved seaward even farther (410 m). Although both reserves saw increased integrality and connectivity of the mangrove patches, the patches in the MPMNR always had higher integrality than those in the FMNNR. We concluded that the mangroves in the MPMNR were more effectively protected than those in the FMNNR.

We develop a novel globalized robust preemptive goal programming model to investigate the problem, where inner-outer uncertainty sets are defined to model the uncertain conservation value and opportunity cost. We thereby derive the tractable globalized robust counterpart of the proposed model and perform the model analysis on the globalized sensitivity parameters. Our proposed optimization framework can be demonstrated for the marine reserve design of West Coast National Marine Park of Qingdao in China. The computational experiments justify several important insights: (i) the resulting reserve area design is more robust than the delimitation of 2014 on the West Coast New Area; (ii) with the change of parameters related to uncertainty sets and global sensitivity, the conservation value can always be realized while the opportunity cost is sensitive; (iii) the comparison results with classic robust optimization method show that the proposed method can reduce the conservatism of decisions and enable planners to formulate more effective policy. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,13375-13385,,10,14,,J.

In response to this the Chinese government has introduced a range of marine spatial management measures. A spatial ecosystem model (Ecospace) of the ECS was developed to examine (1) the likely nature of trade-offs between fishery and conservation goals resulting from the marine protected areas (MPAs) and (2) possible trade-offs within the fishery sector resulting from the MPAs. The results suggest that overall the fishery has benefited from all of the simulated MPAs, whereas, although they defy categorical interpretation, effects of the MPAs on biodiversity and ecosystem structure are variable. Simultaneous application of several metrics of ecosystem status indicates that the perceived effect of an MPA on ecosystem status can depend on which metrics for ecosystem status are used, and how these metrics are interpreted. The simulations indicate that a fisheries and conservation outcome beneficial to all is possible, but not guaranteed, with the creation of an MPA. Total landings and profitability are predicted to have increased as a result of each of the MPAs, albeit at the cost of reduced landings and profits to some sectors of the fishery. This study demonstrates the benefits of the additional information relating to biodiversity, ecosystem structure and within fishery dynamics available from spatial ecosystem models compared to the single species models typically used to examine MPA effects.

However, the current construction of ecological security pattern emphasizes too much on synthesis. The simple method of superposition of multiple ecosystem services ignores the trade-offs and synergies among different ecosystem services, so it is difficult to directly support the ecological protection decision-making under different objectives. Taking Guangdong Province as an example, this study focused on seven important ecosystem services, including habitat maintenance, water conservation, water purification, grain production, soil conservation, flood risk mitigation, and coastal disaster mitigation. Ecological security patterns were constructed for single ecological conservation objectives, such as biodiversity conservation, water resource utilization, grain production, and natural disaster prevention. The results showed that the ecological security pattern for biodiversity conservation was distributed in a “double barrier zones” pattern, and the ecological sources were mainly distributed in the ecological development area of Northern Guangdong. The water security pattern for water resource utilization was distributed in the pattern of “five rivers-one belt”, and the key protected areas were mainly located in rivers, lakes, reservoirs and the surrounding green space. Ecological sources for grain production were mainly distributed in the east and west wings of Guangdong Province. Ecological sources for natural disaster prevention were rarely distributed in Pearl River Delta, Zhanjiang and Shantou, but mainly concentrated in the ecological development area of Northern Guangdong. The comprehensively ecological sources with total area of 49536.10 km2 were identified by integrating the ecological sources determined based on the comprehensive importance of multiple ecosystem services, and the multiple sources under single ecological protection objectives, which were mainly distributed in the periphery of the Pearl River Delta and the ecological development area of Northern Guangdong. Based on the minimum cumulative resistance model and circuit model, ecological corridors with total length of 2268.07 km were identified, among which were long and narrow in the Pearl River Delta. There were 32 pinch points, mainly distributed in 12 narrows with high current value in the corridors of Zhongshan, Zhuhai, and Jiangmen. There were 44 barriers, mainly distributed in Zhongshan, Zhuhai, Jiangmen and Huizhou, with 19 barriers covering most of the corridors in these cities. For the integration of multiple ecological conservation objectives, several aspects should be focused in the formulation of ecological conservation and restoration strategies in Guangdong Province, including habitat quality improvement in ecological development area of Northern Guangdong, water security of rivers, lakes, reservoirs, riparian zones and reservoir shore zone, the cultivated land protection and comprehensive land control in Zhanjiang and Shantou, natural disaster prevention in coastal area. At the same time, the protection of pinch points and the restoration of barriers should be carried out to enhance the connectivity of the ecological corridors in the Pearl River Delta. © 2022 Science Press.

DFNS have covered marine protected areas (MPAs) in four countries since 2015. Although extensive literature discusses the various issues surrounding DFNS, only some researchers have connected the topics of DFNS and MPAs to evaluate the performance of implementing DFNS for financing MPAs. This paper contributes to filling this gap by analyzing the performance of the DFNS for financing MPAs from economic, legal, and environmental aspects by case studies from Seychelles and Belize. It aims to find an answer to the research question of whether the implementation of DFNS is a viable option for financing MPAs by exploring the current performance and discussing the future development of implementing the DFNS for MPAs. The DFNS has played a positive role in establishing MPAs in Seychelles and Belize by providing stable financial support for MPAs and improving the debt sustainability of debtor countries to some extent. However, there are various barriers from a legal perspective in reaching a swap agreement, ensuring the effective implementation of the agreement, and improving the transparency construction. With the trend of increasing scale and amount of debt relief and funding, the DFNS is expected to play an important role in promoting the establishment of MPAs, realizing the economic benefits, and having a satisfactory performance by legal measures. It concludes that with the transparency construction of information disclosure, special legislation on DFNS, an appropriate scale of debt for conversion determined by considering the debt sustainability, an adaptation to the innovation of the contractual approach of sovereign debt restructuring, and complementary assistance from different levels, the implementation of DFNS can be a viable option for financing MPAs. © The Author(s) 2024.",,,,1,11,,Hum.

However, there have been few investigations of biodiversity and connectivity of marine protected areas, in particular a lack of studies at the multispecies level. As one of the most biologically rich regions in China and an important contributor to China’s rapid socio-economic development, a number of protected areas have been established in the East China Sea at the end of the last century, but not much research has been conducted on biodiversity and connectivity to support the conservation and sustainable development. Methods: In this study, six national marine protected areas were selected in the East China Sea, including Chengzhou Island National Marine Park (CZD), Shenhu Bay National Nature Reserve (SHW), Meizhou Island National Marine Park (MZD), Haitan Bay National Marine Park in Pingtan (PTD), Dongtou National Marine Park (DTD) and Yuhuan National Marine Park (YH). Water samples were collected from sandy coast. Environmental DNA was amplified with MiFish-U primers and high-throughput sequencing was performed by Illumina NovaSeq. Permutational multivariate analysis of variance was performed to determine the differences in community composition among protected areas. Network analysis was performed to assess robustness within each marine protected area. Results: A total of 71 samples were obtained, including 5,069,193 reads and 46,309 MOTUs, from six protected areas in different seasons. Further analysis revealed that the abundance of MOTUs shared between protected areas accounted for more than 40% of the total MOTUs abundance. Although the environments differed significantly among protected areas, there were no spatial differences in biodiversity and community structure among protected areas (P > 0.05), and only seasonal differences observed. DTD, SHW and YH had a more complex network structure, while MZD and PTD were relatively simpler. Conclusion: The results of the study suggest that there is a strong connectivity among these protected areas, which has the potential to establish a network of marine protected areas. The community network structures of the protected areas reveal that the protection effects vary from different protected areas, which may be related to the size and management of the protected areas. This study not only provides a reference for the study of nearshore community connectivity in the East China Sea, but also offers direct support for the management and construction of protected areas network in East China Sea. © 2024, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

There are internal relationships between the distribution of eggs and environmental factors. In recent years, influenced by climate change and global warming, the growth and breeding habits of the small yellow croaker (Larimichthys polyactis) have changed. The spawning ground of the small yellow croaker has shifted. In addition, the range of the spawning ground of the small yellow croaker has extended to the open sea, and the distribution characteristics of temperature, salinity, and depth of spawning grounds have also greatly changed compared with that of the past. The goals of our study were to reveal the spatial and temporal distributional pattern of eggs of the small yellow croaker in Haizhou Bay and its adjacent waters, as well as determine the relationship between this distributional pattern and environmental variables. A two-stage GAM (two-stage Generalized Additive Model) is a flexible method for modeling zero-flatted data, which are typically found in the data collected from ichthyoplankton surveys. This method is to model the distribution of species in two steps, firstly modeling presence/absence data and secondly modeling density of presence observations. In this study, we conducted an ichthyoplankton survey of the small yellow croaker in Haizhou Bay and its adjacent waters during May in 2015, 2017, and 2018. Based on these data, the two-stage GAM between the distribution of small yellow croaker eggs and environmental factors was constructed. The results showed that the abundance of eggs of the small yellow croaker varied greatly among different years. The eggs were distributed in estuarine waters at depths of 10-20 m between 33.5°N and 34.5°N. Additionally, the temperature and salinity were important factors affecting eggs distribution of the small yellow croaker. The eggs were distributed in areas where the sea surface temperature was 17°C and the sea surface salinity was between 29.5-30.5. Furthermore, the sea bottom temperature ranged from 16°C to 18°C and the sea bottom salinity was 29 in high-destiny distribution areas. In addition, the interannual variation in water temperature also affected the abundance of small yellow croaker eggs. The abundance of fish eggs was significantly higher in the years with higher water temperature. This research revealed changes in the distribution and interannual variation of yellow croaker eggs with respect to changes in environmental variables, and consequently could be valuable for understanding the supplementary mechanism of the small yellow croaker, conservation of spawning grounds (e.g., marine protected areas), and quantitative management of the small yellow croaker. Although the coastal waters of Haizhou Bay and adjacent regions were the focus of our study, the framework and results derived in this study could also be applied to other coastal marine ecosystems. © 2020 Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences.",,1164-1174,,6,26,,J.

Both species and habitat distributions can be used to define conservation areas, especially in highly diversified ecosystems like coral reefs where biodiversity inventories are lacking. The main objective of this study was to test the relationship between multi-taxa community structure (defined by richness, species lists, and taxonomic distinctness) and habitat typology in the Man and Biosphere UNESCO Reserve of Baa Atoll (Maldives). Species richness per taxon was described at 18 stations located on different habitats mapped using high resolution satellite imagery. A total of 1012 species were described including 178 macroalgae, 173 corals, 121 hydroids, 351 fish and 189 (other) macro-invertebrates. Rarity was extremely high for macro-invertebrates, algae and hydrozoans. The results highlighted a marked difference in species composition between stations for macro-algae and corals but not for other groups (hydroids, fish and macro-invertebrates). These distribution patterns were not strongly correlated to differences in habitat characteristics, which created a weak spatial structure of communities between habitats probably caused by differential exposure of atolls to monsoons and the 1998 bleaching event. Community differences between stations were often due to rarity. Therefore, identifying a network of protected areas that includes occurrences of all species may pose challenges. This is overcome by conservation planning scenarios using medium-size (of the order of 1km 2) management units. © 2012 .",,77-86,,,72,,J.

This small cetacean is a ""Vulnerable (VU)"" marine mammal species according to the Red Data Book of Mammal species of Ecuador. A resident population is found in the El Morro Channel (Guayaquil Gulf Inner Estuary), where it is distributed within The El Morro Mangrove and Wildlife Refuge (2°S, 80°W) and surrounding waters of this coastal protected area. This population has been studied since 2005 and an assessment of its conservation status is being conducted. Based on the population size estimates through capture and recapture methods by photo-identifying the dorsal fin of each individual, a decreasing number of individuals (i.e., reduction of population by 33%) was recently observed in this area from 2001 to 2010. A deterministic population model showed that the population growth rate was also gradually declining (R < 1.0) during the last decade. The causes of this population decline are still not clear, but this trend could be related to some anthropogenic factors such as uncontrolled dolphin watching activities, increasing maritime traffic and bycatch associated to local artisanal fisheries, degradation of natural habitat, and environmental pollution. Natural displacements and migrations, as well as changes in habitat distribution may be contributing factors. Of particular concerns is the progressive increment of uncontrolled dolphin watching activities in mangrove channels of the El Morro Refuge. This activity is likely to affect dolphins, causing changes in behavior, spatial-time distribution and inter-tidal movements. Artisanal fisheries is also an ongoing anthropogenic threat affecting dolphin population as revealed by the high bycatch rate along the Ecuadorian coast, but the impact of bycatch in dolphins from the study area has yet to be evaluated. Habitat degradation and pollution by solid waste and urban/industrial discharges (point and non point sources of pollution) cannot be ruled out as factors impacting the dolphins inhabiting the El Morro Channel and several other areas of the Guayaquil Gulf Inner Estuary. These impacts are important to assess for conservation and management purposes as a substantial part of the overall habitat of dolphins in the Guayaquil Gulf is not protected. This long term research also include new observations on the foraging behavior of this species such as cooperative chasing of preys in sites nearby to artisanal fisheries ports and mangrove channels, strandfeeding of individuals on the mud adjacent to mangrove forests, chase of preys against mangrove roots during low tide condition and chase and direct capture of preys stolen from artisanal gears/nets. These behavioral traits are also affected by the constant perturbation of a raising number of tourism boats. A concerted and adaptive management of this species is urgently required in the Gulf of Guayaquil. With the aim to conserve this species and address its conservation threats, the elaboration of the National Action Plan and Strategy for the Conservation of Dolphins is proposed as a conservation and management tool coupled with the pertinent regulations and policy to protect marine mammals in Ecuador. © 2014 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.",,129-163,,,,,,,,,,,"Nova Science Publishers, Inc.",,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Dolphins: Ecol., Behav. and Conserv.

Marine protected areas are increasingly used as a component of management frameworks to improve the resilience of, or maintain, marine resources. However, any spatial management measures need to consider the seasonal distribution of key species at key life stages, such as the recruitment stage. Trichiurus japonicus (hairtail) is the highest yielding single fish species in China, but it is showing signs of miniaturization and early maturity, which are indicators of overfishing. Thus, it is a suitable model species for studies aiming to find a solution to the challenge of balancing fishing activities with resource protection. The potentially important seasonal nursery grounds of T. japonicus in the East China Sea were identified using a model combining data for the variability in abundance and the probability of occurrence of T. japonicus recruits. Based on fishery-independent survey data, a Bayesian hierarchical species distribution model revealed that the locations and sizes of core nursery grounds of T. japonicus varied seasonally and that the main drivers were depth, sea bottom temperature and sea bottom salinity. The possible seasonal interactions between fishing effort and nursery grounds at different levels of importance were evaluated by analysing the spatial overlap between fishery hot spots and T. japonicus core nursery grounds. The results showed that the proportion of overlap was highest in spring and lowest in summer. These findings highlight the urgent need to develop fleet-adapted management measures for different levels of overlap and suggest that the eastern and southern areas of the East China Sea hairtail national aquatic germplasm resources conservation zone (TCZ) should be included in conservation planning. © 2023 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,,,1,34,,Aquatic Conserv.

They focus on two main issues: firstly the protection of nature, undisturbed natural processes and the conservation of biodiversity. Due to the long history of cultural landscapes and the comparably dense population of Central Europe multifold conflicts in land use evolve. Therefore this target is difficult to achieve. Secondly nature tourism is a goal of national parks - last not least to make the idea of wilderness tangible. Being situated in structural weak regions of the rural periphery, national parks can be seen as instruments for regional development. Outdoor recreation and tourism offer this possibility, especially in sparsely settled regions with further declining population figures. Spatial planning institutions should care for this development, thus creating new regional identities in lagging areas in the long run. 20 national parks are claimed to be sufficient for Germany. They are to fill the blank gaps on a representative map of Central Europe’s biomes, including moorlands, riverine forests, beech- and mixed deciduous forests as well as marine environments.

Here, we present a novel ""real-time"" genetic monitoring programme used to protect the depleted Norwegian coastal cod stock (NCC) in an MPA during the spawning season, while a fishery targeted at the sustainable Northeast Arctic cod stock (NEAC) operates immediately outside. In the period 2009-2016, >6800 cod from the fishery were genotyped with the PanI locus that is discriminatory between these two stocks. The estimated fraction of NEAC increased during the study period until 2014; however, it did not exceed 70% for any sustained period. Therefore, the MPA remained closed for commercial harvest. Genetic analysis of eggs revealed a distinctly lower fraction of NEAC than in the catch from the adult stock, both immediately outside and within the MPA itself. We suggest that this discrepancy is likely to reflect differences in spawning areas used by NCC and NEAC. Estimated fractions of NEAC/NCC using PanI, otolith classification, and 39 single nucleotide polymorphisms were similar, thus validating the use of PanI to estimate NEAC/NCC composition. © International Council for the Exploration of the Sea 2017.",,1093-1104,,3,75,,ICES J.

The Barbuda Council (the island's governing body), with invited support from the Waitt Institute, navigated complex tradeoffs between spatial uses to design and legally codify zoning for their entire marine jurisdiction. After a year of intensive community engagement under this Blue Halo Initiative, regulations were adopted in August 2014 that established zones for sanctuaries, fish net prohibitions, anchoring/mooring, and shipping. Key data used included a habitat map and a heatmap of fishing value. Barbudans designed all zones, with technical support, using the software program SeaSketch. Throughout the process, the Council incorporated input from fishers and other community members, seeking a final zoning design that would minimize negative impacts on livelihoods and earn broad community support. The final zoning plan balances economic, conservation, and cultural uses. It includes thirteen zones and meets the pre-agreed goals of protecting one-third of the waters overall and approximately one-third of each habitat type. The consultation process included seven community consultation meetings, five fisher consultation meetings, and two meetings of a stakeholder committee. The initiative is now in the implementation phase, however Hurricane Irma devastated Barbuda in September 2017, creating substantial challenges for ongoing implementation. Overall lessons learned include the importance of being flexible and transparent, considering enforcement from the outset, building political will through documenting stakeholder and expert perspectives, and not allowing a pursuit of unanimous agreement to hinder progress. © 2019 The Authors",,,,,113,,Mar.

This deep-sea area (> 200 m) supports vitally important ecosystem services. Dealing with the multiple and increasing pressures placed on the deep sea requires adequate governance and management systems, and a thorough evaluation of cumulative impacts grounded on sound science. Notwithstanding the different objectives of various types of ABMTs, at an ocean scale it makes good sense to consider MPAs, Ecologically or Biologically Significant Areas (EBSAs) and other effective conservation measures, such as areas closed to protect Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs), collectively to inform future systematic conservation planning. This paper focuses on climate change pressures likely to affect these areas and the need to evaluate implications for the state of biodiversity features for which they have been established. In a 20–50 year timeframe, virtually all North Atlantic deep-water and open ocean ABMTs will likely be affected. More precise and detailed oceanographic data are needed to determine possible refugia, and more research on adaptation and resilience in the deep sea is needed to predict ecosystem response times. Until such analyses can be made, a more precautionary approach is advocated, potentially setting aside more extensive areas and strictly limiting human uses and/or adopting high protection thresholds before any additional human use impacts are allowed. © 2017 The Authors",,111-122,,,87,,Mar.

Core objectives for designing MPA networks incorporate issues of scale, size and spacing. Ascertaining when such objectives have been met, and thus when a network can be judged to be ecologically coherent, presents an ongoing challenge. This paper presents a broad-scale approach to assess the degree of ecological coherence within one such network.In 2013 an independent ecological coherence assessment was requested by OSPAR, the Regional Seas Convention for the North-east Atlantic, of the ecological coherence of its regional MPA network. As is often the case in the marine environment, the data were not sufficiently comprehensive or spatially inclusive to allow for a thorough assessment for the entire region. Consequently two levels of testing were applied: (1) basic tests applied to the whole OSPAR maritime area; and (2) a more sophisticated second level of tests directed at specific OSPAR regions and subregions for which more complete datasets were available. The former considered major gaps based on basic distribution thresholds and representativity (both biogeographic and bathymetric). The latter focused on broad-scale habitat presence to determine replication, adequacy and connectivity.On the basis of these tests it was concluded that while the OSPAR MPA network as a whole is not ecologically coherent, nonetheless significant progress towards global targets, such as protection of 10% of marine and coastal environments under the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) has been made. Gaps in the distribution of MPAs were identified, particularly under-representation of certain biogeographic provinces and bathymetric zones of depths greater than 75m including bathyal (200-3000m) and abyssal (3000-6000m) depths.To address such gaps, a cooperative region by region approach will be required by the OSPAR Parties to identify where positioning new MPAs can enhance ecological coherence.A limitation of the 2013 assessment was that it did not consider which MPAs are designated and managed for the protection of specific features; rather, it assumed that all features that fall within an MPA are protected. With a redevelopment of the OSPAR MPA database underway it is hoped that reporting of such details by Parties will improve, allowing for more specificity in future analyses. However, as the first such assessment of its kind our two-level approach serves as a case study of a pragmatic example of how assessments of ecologically coherent networks might be undertaken using GIS to contribute to systematic conservation planning. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,44-58,,S2,24,,Aquatic Conserv.

Groups of typically 30-50 experts have pooled knowledge, with the support of technical facilitators, to undertake these intensive scientific and technical exercises in a growing number of marine regions around the world. The results, which are then subject to consideration by the Conference of the Parties to the CBD, describe areas meeting scientific criteria for EBSAs that may require enhanced conservation and management measures. For the South-East Atlantic (West Africa), such a regional workshop took place in Namibia 8-1 April 2013 and, subject to consideration by CBD scientific subsidiary body, the Conference of the Parties to the CBD should eventually be presented with a suite of descriptions of 45 areas meeting EBSA criteria in this region in October 2014 at its 12th meeting. This paper explains the processes that took place both before and after the West African Workshop. Firstly, the Sustainable Ocean Initiative (SOI) supported a first ever regional capacity building Workshop to facilitate the implementation of efforts towards Aichi Target 6 (sustainable fisheries) and 11 (marine protected areas), and to make connections between these targets and the EBSA process. This successful effort, held in Senegal in February 2013, prepared the ground for the subsequent EBSA Workshop. Experts became familiar with available data, with the challenges to be met and had an opportunity to exchange experiences. Sharing scientific information related to descriptions of areas meeting EBSA criteria toward achieving the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011-2020 and Aichi Biodiversity Targets requires sustained effort and collaboration among various partners and experts. The Global Ocean Biodiversity Initiative (GOBI) brings together partners who can contribute skills and research results to inform this process. Areas meeting EBSA criteria in the South-East Atlantic region reflect transboundary connections-from river to sea, from inshore to offshore and deep-sea ecosystems. Ultimately their sustainable use should involve spatial area management tools including, where appropriate, an ecosystem-based approach to fisheries and networks of marine protected areas. The work of selected countries since the EBSA Workshop illustrates possibilities. © Coastal Education & Research Foundation 2014.",,502-506,,,70,,J. Coast.

The introduction of noise energy into the marine environment is of particular concern to those responsible for biodiversity protection and, specifically marine mammals and fish. In order to take steps to ban polluting activities or introduce mitigation measures it is important to establish a scientific case recognising adverse impacts and to fully understand the socio-economic implications and practicality of any proposed regulation. Issues to be resolved include clearly differentiating between impulsive and ambient noise impacts, understanding trends, and establishing significant impacts. In 2009 the OSPAR Commission, the competent authority for the protection of the marine environment of the North-East Atlantic, published an overview of the impacts of anthropogenic underwater sound in the marine environment. Together with a review of the nature of sound and its measurement, and consideration of impacts, this overview examined the noise signature of different activities (construction, shipping, sonar, seismic). At about the same time the European Union established an expert group to guide Member States considerations with respect to noise energy as one of the eleven descriptors of Good Environmental Status under the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) (EU 2008/56/EC). European Regional Seas Conventions have a specific role to play in co-ordination of implementation of the MSFD. For the North-East Atlantic the OSPAR Commission has included noise considerations in its Quality Status Report 2010 (OSPAR, 2010), the North-East Atlantic Environment Strategy 2010-2020 and committed to establishing an inventory of mitigation options. The EU expert Technical Sub-Group (TSG) continues to give consideration to indicators, thresholds, and monitoring guidelines. This paper sets out evolving mitigation including operational measures, habitat-based management, technology-based noise control and efforts to recognise cumulative noise impacts. Illustrative examples are also highlighted. The MSFD is the first legally binding instrument mentioning underwater noise. However, it excludes military activities and, being a Framework Directive, does not identify mitigation measures. It is concluded that sufficient evidence is in place to encourage widespread adoption of precautionary mitigation practices and recommended that such measures should, in the first instance, be linked to the conservation objectives of marine protected areas and hence those species most at risk from noise impacts.",,117-124,,,1,,,,,,,,Middle East Technical University,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Proc.

Four lagoon complexes within the region comprise a Special Area of Conservation (SAC), under the European Habitats Directive. The ephemeral nature of coastal lagoons presents a particular management challenge in terms of retaining designated sites in ""favourable conservation status"". Consequently, in addition to sensitive management of existing sites, it is important to identify sites for habitat re-creation. A site-specific investigation of Hook Lake in Hampshire is presented. Previously, on the basis of salinity measurements alone, this site was deemed to have progressed naturally through brackish conditions to a freshwater habitat overgrown by reeds Phragmites sp. A more detailed survey, which considered salinity measurements together with an analysis of substratum heterogeneity and invertebrate fauna diversity, suggests that it is still predominantly a freshwater system with an adjacent brackish/saline ditch. Future management, linked to local biodiversity action plan targets, could proactively support the development of this site as a coastal lagoon in order to secure its integration as part of the international conservation designation. However, this is complicated by the need to then recognise and compensate for loss of freshwater habitat, the need to persuade the local community that any change would not compromise coastal defence integrity and ultimately by medium to long-term coastal defence investment decisions. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

Pioneered by UNEP's Regional Seas Programme, such approaches have broadened their remit from pollution prevention to the conservation of biodiversity, promoting management tools such as networks of marine protected areas (MPAs).Formal intergovernmental approaches are increasingly complemented by a range of regional projects committed to ambitious targets to establish MPAs and Local Marine Managed Areas (LMMAs). These regional efforts have been inspired by political leaders, non-governmental organizations, coastal communities and committed individuals.Regional networks of MPA managers have drawn together professionals to share good practice and further develop management tools. They focus on partnerships and capacity building opportunities with support from international donors and implementing agencies.Collective ecosystem-based management delivered using a regional approach is identified as a preferred solution to environmental challenges in polar regions. Crossing boundaries and fostering regional synergies can help ensure ecologically coherent regional networks and support resilience. There is also the potential to reap tangible rewards from applying such a regional approach in many other areas.Regional coherence of MPA network design, compliance and enforcement policies, and information sharing is an optimal way to understand and counter commercial and industrial resource extraction forces actively working against sustainable development. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,75-93,,S2,24,,Aquatic Conserv.

With 24% of its territorial waters protected, the UK falls short of the new expected target. As well as quantitative targets, qualitative criteria have been internationally agreed for protected area designation, including minimum coverage values and characteristics that encompass effectively and equitably managed, ecologically representative and well-connected systems of protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures, and integrated into the wider landscape and seascape. The legal framework supporting protected area designations at sea is summarized and explained for UK territorial waters. Efforts to date to achieve current marine protected area (MPA) targets are reviewed, with emphasis on how well the existing protected area portfolio captures the qualitative criteria. Examples are given of other effective conservation measures complementary to formalized MPAs, especially with regard to achieving and promoting qualitative criteria for biodiversity conservation, including appropriate recognition of and support for areas conserved by indigenous people, local communities and private entities. A precis on the governance of MPAs and other effective conservation measures in the UK and its overseas territories is presented. Whilst the UK has made exceptional progress with quantitative MPA coverage, it is still not clear whether designated areas offer effective protection. A UK-level strategy is in place to address this; and at site level, Lyme Bay MPA illustrates the benefits of addressing qualitative criteria. Illustrated by the UK example, an urgent call is made for ongoing and future marine in situ area-based conservation efforts to substantiate quantitative and qualitative considerations, and to ensure that MPA networks are ultimately fit for purpose. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,181-194,,S2,29,,Aquatic Conserv.

In response, extensive restoration efforts are underway, aiming to bolster coral cover and enhance reef fish communities to foster facilitation between fish and corals. This reciprocal relationship is anticipated to improve overall restoration efficacy and enhance coral reef resilience in the face of global warming. Here, we investigate the impact of coral restoration using out-planted Acropora cervicornis colonies attached to raised domes on the associated fish community on the isolated, well-protected reef of Little Cayman Island in the Central Caribbean. Surveys were conducted immediately preceding out-planting, five days later, and 85 days later to capture temporal changes in the fish community. After 85 days of out-planting, there were no changes in fish biomass, abundance, or species richness for the entire fish community. This pattern was consistent for selected fish functional groups. Additionally, no significant differences were observed in the fish community before outplanting, five days after out-planting, or 85 days after out-planting of restoration domes. Our results underscore the limited impact of coral restoration for influencing fish communities in the isolated and highly protected reef of Little Cayman over an 85-day period. Consequently, our findings have implications for using coral restoration as a mechanism to enhance fish populations, particularly in marginally disturbed regions where structural complexity has not been lost. Future restoration programs should therefore incorporate local knowledge of environmental history and restoration needs along with an increased data-driven understanding of the intricate interaction between fish and coral populations to be successful.

Under Act No. 32 of 2004, regency governments were given a mandate to autonomously manage marine resources, including RMPA establishment and management. Under the direction of these local governments, management strategies established through a co-management framework were providing good management systems in terms of personnel capacity, financing and monitoring. However, in 2014 the authority of the regency governments was revoked and transferred to the provincial governments under Act No. 23 of 2014. To date, the authority transference process is still incomplete for many of Indonesia's RMPAs. This paper identifies and analyses the problems faced by regency and provincial governments in undertaking this transition process using case studies from South Sulawesi Province and South-East Sulawesi Province. Problems identified at the local scale include limited funds, limited number and capacity of personnel and a strong sense of ownership of regency governments towards their assets. These hamper management, asset and document transfer, and zoning processes. The transfer of management authority has also severed partnerships with local communities previously playing important roles in RMPA management. At national scale, we found the national government has paid little attention to the problems occurring in the provinces and regencies. A strong willingness from the provincial and regency governments to co-manage the RMPAs is arguably vital and can become the point of departure for creating authority-sharing models that work under the new legal framework. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,155,,Mar.

Both protected areas and OECMs contribute to the implementation of the Global Biodiversity Framework’s Target 3, which calls for the conservation of 30% of marine, terrestrial and inland water areas by 2030. This paper provides the first global assessment of the contribution of OECMs to GBF Target 3. Between 2019 and 2023, 820 sites in nine countries and territories were reported to the World Database on OECMs, covering 1.9 million km2 of the Earth’s surface and, in the terrestrial realm, contributing over 1% to the 30% coverage target. Notably, over 50% of reported OECMs are under governance by governments and less than 2% are governed by Indigenous peoples and local communities. In countries and territories that have reported OECMs, a far greater proportion of OECMs than protected areas are under shared governance (40.9% compared to 2.5%), and collaborative governance is the most common governance sub-type among reported OECMs. This paper finds that almost 30% of the 820 reported OECMs overlap with identified Key Biodiversity Areas, which are one global classification of areas of particular importance for biodiversity. With Target 3’s pressing deadline of 2030, there is an urgent need to scale up understanding and local to national engagement with the OECM framework, ensuring that it fulfills its potential to recognize diverse forms of equitable governance and effective conservation.

Consequently, a vast number of development initiatives across the globe have been designed to combine social, economic, and environmental perspectives. For the most part, the development community is well acquainted with the negative experiences and unintended consequences that some projects have or may bring. However, in tropical coastal ecosystems, this aspect is not completely acknowledged, studied, or understood. Here, we use tropical seagrass meadows as a model social-ecological system to investigate how sustainable development initiatives result in unintended consequences with both positive and negative outcomes for environment and society. We analyze the initiatives and their effects in terms of a typology encompassing “flow”, “addition”, and “deletion” effects and investigate them across four types of sustainable development initiatives that occur within tropical coastal environments: (1) megafauna conservation, (2) alternative livelihood programs, (3) mosquito net malaria prophylaxis, and (4) marine protected areas. Using these four initiatives as examples, we show that sustainable development initiatives can produce unintended effects with major consequences. Further, we illustrate how not assessing such effects may ultimately undermine the initial goals of the sustainable development intervention. Our study suggests that acknowledging unintended effects and transitioning them so that they become sustainable is more effective than ignoring effects or viewing them as trade-offs. We strongly stress the need for an a priori process in which positive effects, negative effects, and potential uncertainties and surprises are considered when planning the development intervention, and we argue for greater social-ecological monitoring of initiatives. As such, this contribution links to contemporary approaches dealing with the sustainability of natural resources and social-ecological systems and bridges with the importance of development initiatives in the context of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. © 2022 by the author(s)",,,,2,27,,Ecol.

Reducing N emissions is the only long-term solution. However, on-site management has the potential to mitigate some of the adverse effects of N deposition. In this paper we review how management activities such as grazing, cutting, burning, hydrological management and soil disturbance measures can mitigate the negative impacts of N across a range of temperate habitats (acid, calcareous and neutral grasslands, sand dunes and other coastal habitats, heathlands, bogs and fens). The review focuses mainly on European habitats, which have a long history of N deposition, and it excludes forested systems. For each management type we distinguish between actions that improve habitat suitability for plant species of conservation importance, and actions that immobilize N or remove it from the system. For grasslands and heathlands we collate data on the quantity of N removal by each management type. Our findings show that while most activities improve habitat suitability, the majority do little to slow or to reduce the amount of N accumulating in soil pools at current deposition rates. Only heavy cutting/mowing with removal in grasslands, high intensity burns in heathlands and sod cutting remove more N than comes in from deposition under typical management cycles. We conclude by discussing some of the unintended consequences of managing specifically for N impacts, which can include damage to non-target species, alteration of soil processes, loss of the seedbank and loss of soil carbon. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,464-475,,,212,,Biol.

The primary role of these areas is to protect and restore ecosystems, but it has become increasingly evident that in order to designate effective PAs it is also crucial to take into consideration how they contribute to sustainable local socio-economic targets. In the past decade studies focusing on social impacts of PAs have increasingly studied a number of impacts such as on people’s quality of life, income and connectedness to nature. Although the literature on social impacts of PAs has increased there is limited evidence regarding the distribution of these impacts across different locations inside and near PAs. Addressing this gap is useful for practitioners considering that it is now widely accepted that social impacts are a significant predictor for the level of public support for PA. In the current study we explore this topic and analyse the spatial distribution of perceived social impacts in 4 European Protected Areas using primary data from 1,251 households. We apply a new modeling framework using Bayesian statistics revealing that social impacts are often unevenly distributed between local communities and extend outside the boundaries of a PA. Our analysis also shows that spatial proximity with other people (what are the perceptions of people who live nearby) is more important for predicting most perceived social impacts of PAs compared to how close respondents are to a PA. Our results highlight that social impacts may be geographically unevenly distributed in PAs and we present a new way of measuring the spatial distribution of these impacts which can be useful for national park authorities and in general managers of PAs.

This paper explores further this argument by analysing data from approximately 800 respondents living inside or near four PAs of international importance in Greece. A Bayesian regression modelling approach testing which factors influence subjective wellbeing was applied. While wellbeing is explained by a combination of factors, the results of the study reveal that it is mainly PAs’ social impacts that have an effect on subjective wellbeing levels followed by the geographical location. This finding suggests that more effort needs to be invested in the equal distribution of PAs benefits in order to increase wellbeing and public support for these areas. © 2020 The Author(s).

The diverse ways people interact with and relate to aquatic environments are consequently overlooked in planning and management. This misses opportunities as people's decisions and actions have direct and indirect impacts on how natural systems function. Effective management requires appreciation of how people interact with these environments in order to tailor, and build public support for, management plans and ensure compliance. This qualitative study, using 30 semi-structured interviews, explores people's values towards Moreton Bay Marine Park and its tributary rivers in south east Queensland, Australia. The values offer a powerful means to understand the different ways people relate to these waters. The study found that these waterway environments provide people with a diversity of rich and meaningful experiences, and that individuals hold several values each; they are not discrete. Some types of value frequently occur together. These clusters of values suggest new ways of working with the public to achieve management goals of protecting and improving waterway environments. © 2016 Published by Elsevier Ltd.",,121-131,,,71,,Mar.

Both face similar conflicts typical of ecotourism, particularly related to the impacts of recreational fishing and marine wildlife tourism. A high diversity of incentives is found to be used, the combination of which promotes effectiveness in achieving conservation objectives and equity in governance. Highly evolved regulations have provided for depleted spangled emperor (Lethrinus nebulosus) stocks in NMP to stabilise and begin recovery, and pink snapper (Pagrus auratus) stocks in SBMP to recover from past depletions, though there are still concerns about recreational fishing impacts. The governance frameworks for marine wildlife tourism are considered extremely good practice. Some incentives need strengthening in both cases, particularly capacity for enforcement, penalties for deterrence and cross-jurisdictional coordination. In NMP there was also a need to promote transparency in making research and monitoring results available, and to address tensions with the recreational fishing sector by building linkages to provide for their specific representation, as part of a strategy to build trust and cooperation with this sector. Both case studies represent world-leading good practice in addressing proximal impacts from local activities, but in the longer-term the foundation species of both marine parks are critically threatened by the distal impacts of climate change. A diversity of incentives has promoted resilience in the short-term, but global action to mitigate climate change is the only way to promote the long-term resilience of these iconic marine ecosystems. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,127,,Mar.

These challenges are explored through a study of 20 MPA case studies from around the world. A novel governance analysis framework is employed to address some key questions: How can top-down and bottom-up approaches to MPA governance be combined? What does this mean, in reality, in different contexts? How can we develop and implement governance approaches that are both effective in achieving conservation objectives and equitable in fairly sharing associated costs and benefits?; The author explores the many issues that these questions raise, as well as exploring options for addressing them. A key theme is that MPA governance needs to combine people, state and market approaches, rather than being based on one approach and its related ideals. Building on a critique of the governance analysis framework developed for common-pool resources, the author puts forward a more holistic and less prescriptive framework for deconstructing and analyzing the governance of MPAs. This inter-disciplinary analysis is aimed at supporting the development of MPA governance approaches that build social-ecological resilience through both institutional and biological diversity. It will also make a significant contribution to wider debates on natural resource governance, as it poses some critical questions for contemporary approaches to related research and offers an alternative theoretical and empirical approach. © 2014 Peter J.

It is argued that these experiences indicate that cautious approaches which provide for the meaningful participation of stakeholders can be successful in both achieving nature conservation objectives and promoting cooperation, and that a reliance on statutory powers can exacerbate conflicts and undermine the potential for cooperation. It is concluded that there is a need to put concepts into practice by shifting from the consultation-interpretation paradigm to one based on meaningful stakeholder participation and joint planning if the major opportunity provided by the Habitats Directive is not to be jeopardised.",,375-396,,04-May,23,,Mar.

On the basis of a review of 11 papers, 15 objectives are identified: six scientific, five economic, three cultural and one ethical. There is little consensus, and no one objective is cited by all authors. Each objective is discussed and all are found to have a valid role in marine conservation, and to be achievable by MNR designation. Only four of the objectives, of indirect relevance to marine conservation, could be better met by alternative site designations or general measures. The objectives of Marine Protected Areas, which subsume rather than replace MNRs, are found to provide a reasonable consensus, although the need for an additional objective is argued. It is concluded that MNRs are a necessary and integral part of wider Coastal Zone Management (CZM) policies, though they are only effective if their objectives are not compromised during the formulation and implementation of appropriate management plans. © 1995.",,149-178,,3,24,,Ocean Coast.

It draws on the common-pool resource (CPR) literature and is premised on the thesis that building partnership capacity amongst relevant authorities and resource users provides a critical basis for overcoming collective action problems (CAPs), through the development of incentive structures and social capital, in order to achieve strategic objectives. Particular attention is paid to the influence of statutory marine biodiversity conservation obligations to the European Commission for marine special areas of conservation (MSACs), as these are an important external contextual factor. The risks of imposition and parochialism are outlined and the challenges of taking a balanced approach are discussed. The challenges posed by the attributes of the marine environment are considered, as are those posed by the policy framework for MSACs. The findings are discussed in relation to three questions: (i) which partnership models appear to have the potential to overcome the CAPs posed by inshore MSACs? (ii) what CAPs had to be addressed during the early phase of development of the MSAC co-management regimes? (iii) what are the likely future CAPs for the collaborative management of MSACs that each partnership will need to address? These preliminary findings will form the basis for future studies to analyse the outcomes of these 15 initiatives, in order to assess the strengths, in various contexts, of different approaches for building resilient and balanced, thereby effective, institutions for the co-management of MSACs in the UK. © 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

Questions are raised about the effectiveness, representativeness, and potential for connectivity of these remote VLMPAs as well as whether they are equitably managed. In addition, it is argued that the push for such designations in countries’ overseas territories deflects attention and effort from the challenge of designating and effectively managing MPAs closer to home. In the run-up to the 2016 IUCN World Conservation Congress and Conference of Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), it is important for countries to recognize that remote VLMPAs are but one type of MPA, requiring significant investment in monitoring and enforcement in order to effectively achieve conservation objectives, and that achieving the Aichi MPA coverage target largely through such designations will undermine the aims of this target. To better meet the MPA network criteria set out by the CBD, a range of types of MPAs must be implemented, including smaller MPAs in more intensely used ‘metropolitan seas’, and social justice considerations must be better integrated in conservation planning. It is important that the race towards remote VLMPAs does not divert attention, resources and political will away from the other types of MPA that are necessary for effectively fulfilling marine conservation targets. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,231-234,,,73,,Mar.

Drawing on coevolutionary governance and social-ecological systems concepts, we hypothesize that (1) effective governance frameworks for MPAs rely on various combinations of diverse incentives, which encourage people (actors) to behave in a manner that reduces the impacts of their uses and thereby more effectively achieves conservation objectives; (2) effective MPAs will tend to employ a higher diversity of governance incentives, creating resilient MPAs analogous to resilient ecosystems with higher species diversity. This multiple case study empirical analysis of the governance of 50 MPAs supports these hypotheses and demonstrates that: (a) there is strong correlation between the effectiveness of MPAs and the number of governance incentives used; (b) combinations of economic, legal, communication, knowledge and participatory incentives are shown to be employed in effective MPAs and mostly needed in less effective MPAs; (c) whilst some incentives are frequently identified as being important to promote effectiveness, no particular ‘magic wand’ incentive or ‘best practice’ combinations of incentives guarantee this. These findings show that effectiveness is not determined by any specific governance approaches or incentives, but rather the combination of a diversity of functionally integrated incentives, which interact with and support one another to promote MPA effectiveness and resilience, i.e. diversity is the key to resilience, both of species in ecosystems and incentives in governance systems.

This overview of the objectives, selection, design and management of MPAs aims to provide a basis for discussion regarding possible ways forward by identifying emerging issues, convergences and divergences. Whilst the attributes of the marine environment may limit the effectiveness of site-specific initiatives such as MPAs, it is argued that it would be defeatist in the extreme to abandon MPAs in the face of these limitations. Ten key objectives for MPAs are discussed, including that of harvest refugia, and it is argued that whilst these objectives may be justifiable from a preservationist perspective, they may be objected to from a resource exploitation perspective. MPAs generate both internal (between uses) and basic (between use and conservation) conflicts, and it is argued that these conflicts may be exacerbated when scientific arguments for MPAs are motivated by preservationist concerns. It is reported that a minority of MPAs are achieving their management objectives, and that for the majority insufficient information was available for such effectiveness evaluations. Structure and process-oriented perspectives on marine conservation are discussed. It is argued that there are two divergent stances concerning optimal MPA management approaches: top-down, characterized as being government-led and science-based, with a greater emphasis on set-aside; and bottom-up, characterized as being community-based and science-guided, with a greater emphasis on multiple-use. Given the divergent values of different stakeholders, the high degree of scientific uncertainty, and the high marine resource management decision stakes, it is concluded that a key challenge is to adopt a ""middle-ground"" approach which combines top-down and bottom-up approaches, and which is consistent with the post-normal scientific approach.",,197-216,,3,11,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000178213500003,,,,,,,ACANTHASTER-PLANCI; COASTAL; COMMUNITY; CONSERVATION; EXTINCTION; FISHERIES; MANAGEMENT; OUTBREAKS; PREDATION; RESERVES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

To help maintain and restore marine populations and communities MPAs should form ecologically coherent networks. How to estimate and implement connectivity in MPA design remains a challenge. Here a new theoretical framework is presented based on biophysical modelling of organism dispersal, combined with a suite of tools to assess different aspects of connectivity that can be integrated in MPA design. As a demonstration, these tools are applied to an MPA network in the Baltic Sea (HELCOM MPA). The tools are based on the connectivity matrix, which summarizes dispersal probabilities, averaged over many years, between all considered areas in the geographic target area. The biophysical model used to estimate connectivity included important biological traits that affect dispersal patterns where different trait combinations and habitat preferences will produce specific connectivity matrices representing different species. Modelled connectivity matrices were used to assess local retention within individual MPAs, which offers indications about the adequacy of size when MPAs are considered in isolation. The connectivity matrix also provides information about source areas to individual MPAs, e.g. sources of larvae or pressures such as contaminants. How well several MPAs act as a network was assessed within a framework of eigenvalue perturbation theory (EPT). With EPT, the optimal MPA network with respect to connectivity can be identified. In addition, EPT can suggest optimal extensions of existing MPA networks to enhance connectivity. Finally, dispersal barriers can be identified based on the connectivity matrix, which may suggest boundaries for management units. The assessment of connectivity for the HELCOM MPA are discussed in terms of possible improvements, but the tools presented here could be applied to any region. © 2020 The Authors.

Location: The eastern North Sea in the Atlantic Ocean. Methods: Theory of finding optimal MPA network is based on eigenvalue perturbation theory applied to population connectivity. Previous theory is here extended to the persistence of multiple species by solving a maximization problem with constraints, which identifies an optimal consensus network of MPAs. The theory is applied to two test cases within a 120,000 km2 area in the North Sea where connectivity was estimated with a biophysical model. In a realistic case, the theory is applied to the protection of rocky-reef habitats, where the biophysical model is parameterized with realistic dispersal traits for key species. Theoretical predictions of optimal networks were validated with a simple metapopulation model. Persistence of optimal consensus MPA networks is compared to randomly selected networks as well as to the existing MPA network. Results: Despite few overlapping MPA sites for the optimal networks based on single dispersal strategies, the consensus network for multiple dispersal strategies performed well for 3 of 4 contrasting strategies even without user-defined constraints. In the test with five realistic dispersal strategies, representing a community on threatened rocky reefs, the consensus network performed equally well compared to solutions for single species. Different dispersal strategies were also protected jointly across the MPA network (93% of sites), in contrast to simulations of the existing MPA network (2% of sites). Consensus networks based on connectivity were significantly more efficient compared to existing MPAs. Main conclusions: Our findings suggest that the new theoretic framework can identify a consensus MPA network that protects a whole community containing species with multiple dispersal strategies. © 2015 The Authors.

This is an area where global warming is particularly intense and where large, previously ice-covered areas are now more accessible to fishing vessels. This raised questions whether existing conservation and management measures are adequate. In this paper, we discuss the process of developing new regulatory measures, including four large preliminary closed areas covering 442,022 km2 and an additional ten closed areas covering more than 3260 km2 that protects sites with biodiversity, specific to the region. The new measures, an amendment to an old regulation related to the management of impacts from bottom fisheries on ecosystems, is based on knowledge derived from more than 10 years of scientific surveys of the seabed ecology. A key finding here is that cost-efficient, large-scale mapping and monitoring of seabed ecosystems is important for the development of area-based regulations of fishing activities. In the process of developing the regulation the Directorate of Fisheries made its own analysis of the data from the scientific surveys by a novel approach using commercially available software. Such area-based measures also contribute to the achievement of Aichi target 11 and UN Sustainable Development Goal 14.5 on protecting maritime areas. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,188,,Prog.

The Convention of Biological Diversity (CBD) and the UN Sustainable Development Goals call for conserving at least 10 per cent of coastal and marine areas globally. Management tools to achieve this goal include marine protected areas (MPAs) and “other effective area-based conservation measures” (OECMs) of structural megabenthic organisms (e.g. corals, sea pens, sponges, anemones, etc.). But large areas of the ocean are lacking information about seabed communities. Here we show that this data gap can potentially be filled by collecting data on megabenthic organisms that are “bycatch” (not the target species) on government research vessels monitoring commercial fish and shellfish. For this paper, several Arctic and sub-arctic nations contributed megabenthos data from a total of 12.569 fish assessment trawls and associated bottom water temperature data. The latter outline areas of warm sub-Arctic inflow versus colder Arctic waters, which we align with temperature affinities of community. We also found that maximum levels of shared taxa were higher between Atlantic and Eurasian Arctic Seas than with Pacific Arctic Seas. Areas of high standardized species richness generally, but not everywhere, coincided with areas of high standardized biomass and/or high current velocity and in transition zones between water masses. We did not find that standardized taxon richness declined with latitude (from 60 to 81°N) as has been previously hypothesized. High biomass was generally associated with Arctic outflow shelves and/ or (within-region) colder water masses. We identify areas with high proportions of sessile and upright taxa that may be susceptible to damage by bottom trawl gear, taxa with calcareous skeletons that may be susceptible to ocean acidification, and 'cold-water' taxa that may be most vulnerable to ocean warming. Our results demonstrate the feasibility and value of international collaboration and cooperation in understanding large-scale patterns of Arctic megabenthic communities and providing scientific advice for management of human activities in the global Arctic ecosystem. © 2021",,,,,200,,Prog.

In this study, five sites within a small, but well enforced marine reserve at Cousin Island, were investigate using various methods to explore differences in coral habitat quality, coral recruitment, fish assemblages, key invertebrate grazers, and rugosity. The objective of the study was to collect a broad set of scientific data, which could be useful to describe linkage between coral reef and fish assemblages after a large-scale disturbance, as well as for future management decisions regarding marine resources, in terms of MPA protection and recovery abilities. The results showed high spatial variation in coral coverage between sites (from 1.5% to 43.2%), which were higher than previously reported, as well as high variation in dispersal of coral recruits. Furthermore, there were large heterogenic differences in fish densities and composition, which were directly linked to coral habitat quality, e.g. total fish abundance was 15 times higher on sites with high coral coverage in comparison to sites with low coral cover. In summary, this study demonstrates that coral reef habitat and fish assemblage may display high spatial variability and heterogenic differences after large-scale disturbances and suggests that potential recovery from coral mass mortality may occur in a non-linear and patchy procedure, which in turn may depend on underlying stocastical processes that affect coral recruitment and survivorship. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,32-41,,,114,,Ocean Coast.

The biological survey of Cap-Couronne reserve has been repeated with the same protocol every three years since 1995 and took into account the initial state of communities before protection. This programme aims at assessing (i) the ecosystem restoration, (ii) the benefits of this protection regime for sustaining the resources exploited by the low-tech small fisheries. It includes visual censuses of fish assemblages and standardized fishing operations made by professional (trammel net) and amateur (hook-and-line) fishermen within and outside the reserve. Both methods attest that the abundance and the individual size of the most valuable fish species are markedly increasing, and that the behaviour of these species tends to be more natural. After five years of protection, the reserve fish stocks are still in a replenishment stage, but the greater abundance of large-sized individuals of targeted species and changes in their behaviour suggest that the reproductive success of those species will increase significantly and will benefit the fishing activities outside the reserve.",,243-251,,,59,,,"Suivi biologique d'une réserve marine de la Côte bleue (golfe de Marseille, Méditerranée, France)",,,,,,,French,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1-2 Journal Abbreviation: Rev.

The main aim of this paper was to integrate all available distribution data of the Reynoutria taxa in SE Europe and to predict in which habitats and along which corridors its future spread can be expected. Distribution data of the Reynoutria taxa were obtained from extensive field studies in the period from 2006 to 2016, as well as from the literature and herbarium sources. A total of 4081 localities in Serbia and the Kosovo region, Montenegro, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria and Romania have been recorded, most frequently in riparian and human-made habitats. Ecologically suitable ranges for the Reynoutria taxa were predicted using the MaxEnt program and 19 bioclimatic variables which were derived from the WorldClim data set. Results of this study showed that the most frequent Reynoutria taxa in SE Europe are R. japonica var. japonica and hybrid R. × bohemica. The most suitable geographical areas for R. japonica and R. sachalinensis are mostly located in the north, while for R. × bohemica the central part of SE Europe is suitable. The precipitation of the warmest quarter had a high influence on the potential distribution modelling of these closely related species. Potential distribution modelling revealed R. × bohemica's high temperature tolerance in different seasons with high durability of drought (up to 60 mm per year less precipitation than parental species). Moreover, this research predicts which areas are most likely to be invaded, and makes suggestions where to focus management efforts for survey and removal of these invaders, especially in protected areas. According to the future climate analysis R. japonica and R. × bohemica could expand their range in riparian habitats up to 30–40%. Consequently, invasion in Slovenia's and Croatia's rivers requires urgent preventative measures. This study provides empirical evidence that these plants could become widespread throughout SE Europe within 25 years under the current trend and emphasizes that regionally specific management plans should be implemented to prevent further spread of these taxa. © 2017 Elsevier GmbH",,Jan-15,,,41,,J.

In this research, first, with regard to field visits, interview with natives of the area, and investigation of the environment of the study area, the risks existing in the region were identified. Then, for final identification of the risks, the Delphi method was applied. Analysis and prioritization of risks of the area of Helleh were performed by multi-criteria decision-making methods of Shannon's Entropy and the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS). In this research, risks were assessed by three criteria of severity, probability of occurrence, and vulnerability. Twenty six of the risks were identified which were specified in two groups, natural events and environmental risks. The environmental ones were classified into four groups: physicochemical, biological, social-economic, and cultural. Results of the research showed that the construction of the Rayis-Ali-Delvari Dam at the upper part of the study area threatens the wetland. Water supply for the dam 75 km away from the area with concession of 0.9999 holds the first priority of risk-generating factors. Of the managerial workable solutions suggested controlling the risks, the stopping of the pumping of water from the wetland and observation of hunting season length and permissible type and number of hunting in the area can be mentioned. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,6913-6922,,11,184,,Environ.

In Canada, policy incentives to address bycatch of vulnerable species-at-risk have become more prominent in recent years. Yet bycatch risk has been difficult to quantify and mitigate, in part due to large data gaps in fisheries observation and monitoring. Here we suggest the use of novel modelling frameworks to optimize spatial management strategies for bycatch mitigation. We utilize spatiotemporal modeling of fisheries-independent survey data to predict high-risk regions for three at-risk skates (family Rajidae) in Atlantic Canada. We use these identified regions to evaluate the relative reduction in bycatch risk that can be expected by closing targeted bycatch-protection zones on the western Scotian Shelf to bottom-trawl fishing, and further examine the relative costs to the fishing industry that such closures may impose. We show that when closures are precisely targeted on high-bycatch risk areas, relative costs to industry are minimal by affected fishing area (1.25 ± 0.62 % total area) or displaced landings (0.28 ± 0.14 % by weight of catch). To reduce bycatch risk by 50 % for all three vulnerable skates, less than 10 % of landed catch weight is displaced. These results can be used to reduce bycatch encounters for any endangered, threatened or protected species through spatially targeted conservation measures. We conclude that new approaches to the analysis and mitigation of spatial-temporal bycatch patterns can help to meet regulatory or market-driven requirements for bycatch reduction at low cost. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,146,,Mar.

Despite this, there has been no formal, comprehensive assessment of their biodiversity. The region abuts the southwest Australian floristic region which has received much scientific attention. The aim of this paper is to provide the first general overview of the biodiversity of part of this intact, yet relatively unknown, Mediterranean ecosystem. We do this by synthesizing data from State Government agencies and published research. We found that, like other parts of southwest Australia, the region has globally significant levels of plant species diversity. More than 2400 plant species, including 291 species considered threatened, have been recorded, representing one-sixth of all Ausuralia's vascular plant species. Eleven of Australia's 23 major vegetation groups are represented even though the region covers less than 1% of continental Australia. We documented 170 vertebrate species, including 31 threatened species, with a particularly high richness of reptile species (n = 46). We highlight how little is known about this region. For example, 116 vertebrate species not recorded in the region probably occur there based on their habitat requirements and known distributions. An examination of plant and vertebrate diversity in the region, using a half degree latitude and longitude grid cells, showed a highly heterogeneous pattern of species richness and vulnerability, with a general decline in species richness from southwest to northeast. Conservation strategies that rely on capturing the highest levels of biodiversity in a series of protected areas are unlikely to guarantee protection for all species given these high levels of heterogeneity. Instead, a region-wide conservation plan should involve targeted ecological research, consideration of ecological processes and stakeholder consultation.

It is specific to defined areas along the northern region of Dhofar in Oman. This study reviews the management of the Omani abalone fishery during the last 31 y, identifies the challenges encountered, and suggests solutions to overcome these difficulties. During the period 1988-2018, annual abalone landings ranged from 29 tonnes (mt) in 1999 to 149 mt in 2011, with an average of 53 mt. In 2019, landings 24 t (53 t whole weight) were reported to be the lowest in the last three decades and landed within 10 days of opening. The fishery generated 1.3 million Omani rials (3.38 million US$) (OR, where 1 OR = 2.6 USD) in 1993 and 8.2 million OR in 2011, with an average of 2.5 million OR (6.5 million US$). By contrast, the average annual price per kg was 50 OR (130 US$). The fishery was mainly managed in accordance with seasonal closures, which ranged from 6 mo to less than 1 mo; in one case, there was a complete suspension of fishing for 3 y. The number of fishers engaged in this fishery was not stable, and fluctuated between 1,450 in 1993 and 8,539 in 2014. The seasonal closures between 1988 and 2003 resulted in a gradual decrease in average landings, reaching 2%-45% at the end of the season, with an average of 27%. The percentage of divers who participated at the end of the season ranged from 9% to 90%, with an average of 47%. It is suggested that the government should conduct comprehensive research to assess the Omani abalone stock, population dynamics, and habitat, as well as the behavior of the fishermen. Furthermore, better data collection and monitoring systems should be established. It is strongly recommended that a ""pulse fishing"" or spatial-based or temporary marine-protected area fishing (zonation) approach that serves the objectives of stock and habitat preservation be implemented. Thus, the restoration of the Omani abalone fishery is achievable but will require long-term research efforts. © 2020 National Shellfisheries Association. All rights reserved.",,683-693,,3,39,,J.

Aichi Biodiversity Target 11 describes what an improved conservation network would look like for marine, terrestrial and inland water areas, including freshwater ecosystems. To date, there is no comprehensive assessment of what needs to be achieved to meet Target 11 for freshwater biodiversity. Reports on implementation often fail to consider explicitly freshwater ecosystem processes and habitats, the pressures upon them, and therefore the full range of requirements and actions needed to sustain them. Here the current progress and key gaps for meeting Aichi Target 11 are assessed by exploring the implications of each of its clauses for freshwater biodiversity. Concerted action on Aichi Biodiversity Target 11 for freshwater biodiversity by 2020 is required in a number of areas: a robust baseline is needed for each of the clauses described here at national and global scales; designation of new protected areas or expansion of existing protected areas to cover known areas of importance for biodiversity and ecosystem services, and a representative sample of biodiversity; use of Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures (OECMs) in places where designating a protected area is not appropriate; and promoting and implementing better management strategies for fresh water in protected areas that consider its inherent connectivity, contextual vulnerability, and required human and technical capacity. Considering the specific requirements of freshwater systems through Aichi Biodiversity Target 11 has long-term value to the Sustainable Development Goals discussions and global conservation policy agenda into the coming decades.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are currently one of the management tools used to counteract the pervasive impacts of fishing. However, MPAs in which reef sharks are abundant tend to be located in remote and underexploited areas, preventing a fair assessment of management effectiveness beyond remoteness from human activities. Here, we determine the conditions under which MPAs can effectively protect sharks along a wide gradient of reef accessibility, from the vicinity of a regional capital towards remote areas, using 385 records from baited remote underwater video systems and 2,790 underwater visual censuses performed in areas open to fishing and inside 15 MPAs across New Caledonia (South-Western Pacific). We show that even one of the world's oldest (43 years), largest (172 km2) and most restrictive (no-entry) MPA (Merlet reserve) on coral reefs has between 17.3% and 45.3% fewer shark species and between 37.2% and 79.8% fewer shark abundance than remote areas in a context where sharks are not historically exploited. On coral reefs situated at less than 1 hr of travel time from humans, shark populations are so low in abundance (less than 0.05 individuals per 1,000 m2) that their functional roles are severely limited. Synthesis and applications. Remote areas are the last sanctuaries for reef sharks, providing a new baseline from which to evaluate human impacts on the species. However, there is no equivalent close to human activities even in large, old and strongly restrictive marine protected areas. As such sharks deserve strong protection efforts. The large, no-entry marine protected areas, close to humans, offer limited benefits for reef shark populations, but provide more realistic conservation targets for managers of human-dominated reefs. The exclusion of human activities on a sufficiently large area is key to protect reef shark populations. However, this strategy remains difficult to apply in many countries critically depending on reef resources for food security or livelihood. © 2017 The Authors.

We applied a systematic conservation planning tool, Marxan with Zones, and stakeholder consultation to design and revise the draft zoning plan. This process was facilitated by Sabah Parks, a government agency, and WWF-Malaysia, under the guidance of the Tun Mustapha Park steering committee and with support from the University of Queensland. Four conservation and fishing zones, including no-take areas, were developed, each with representation and replication targets for key marine habitats, and a range of socio-economic and community objectives. Here we report on how decision-support tools informed the reserve design process in three planning stages: prioritization, government review, and community consultation. Using marine habitat and species representation as a reporting metric, we describe how the zoning plan changed at each stage of the design process. We found that the changes made to the zoning plan by the government and stakeholders resulted in plans that compromised the achievement of conservation targets because no-take areas were moved away from villages and the coastline, where unique habitats are located. The design process highlights a number of lessons learned for future conservation zoning, which we believe will be useful as many other places embark on similar zoning processes on land and in the sea.

Forests, however, are increasingly either being disturbed, planted or managed in the form of timber or food plantations. Because of a lack of spatial data, forest management has commonly been ignored in previous conservation assessments. Location: Global. Methods: We combine a new global map of forest management types created solely from remote sensing imagery with spatially explicit information on the distribution of forest-associated vertebrate species and protected areas globally. Using Bayesian logistic regressions, we explore whether the amount of forested habitat available to a species as well as information on species-specific threats can explain differences in IUCN extinction risk categories. Results: We show that disturbed and human-managed forests dominate the distributional ranges of most forest-associated species. Species considered as non-threatened had on average larger amounts of non-managed forests within their range. A greater amount of planted forests did not decrease the probability of species being threatened by extinction. Even more worrying, protected areas are increasingly being established in areas dominated by disturbed forests. Conclusion: Our results imply that species extinction risk and habitat assessments might have been overly optimistic with forest management practices being largely ignored so far. With forest restoration being at the centre of climate and conservation policies in this decade, we caution that policy makers should explicitly consider forest management in global and regional assessments. © 2022 The Authors.

Their remote location means there is limited knowledge of species and habitat distribution, and rates and scales of change. Yet, evaluating the attainment of conservation objectives and managing the impact of human activities both require a quantitative understanding of natural variability in species composition/abundance and habitat conditions. Ocean Networks Canada (ONC) and Fisheries and Oceans Canada are collaborating in the development of remote monitoring tools for the Endeavour Hydrothermal Vents MPA in the north-east Pacific. This 98.5 km2 MPA, located 250 km offshore Vancouver Island, encompasses five major fields of hydrothermal vents, at depths of 2200–2400 m. A real-time cabled observatory was installed at the Endeavour site in 2010. Scientific research for the conservation, protection and understanding of the area is permitted within the MPA and is the primary activity impacting the area. Research activities require the use of submersibles for sampling, surveying and observatory infrastructure maintenance. Data and imagery from remotely operated vehicle dives and fixed subsea observatory sensors are archived in real time using ONC's Oceans 2.0 software system, enabling evaluation of the spatial footprint of research activity in the MPA and the baseline level of natural ecosystem change. Recent examples of database queries that support MPA management include: (1) using ESRI ArcGIS spatial analysis tools to create kernel density ‘heat maps’ to quantify the intensity of sampling and survey activity within the MPA; and (2) quantifying high-frequency variability in vent fauna and habitat using sensor and fixed camera data. Collaboration between researchers and MPA managers can help mitigate the logistical challenges of monitoring remote MPAs. Recognition at the policy level of the importance of such partnerships could facilitate the extension of scientific missions to support more formal monitoring programmes. © 2019 The Authors Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,84-102,,S2,29,,Aquatic Conserv.

To minimize the future risk of ineffective management efforts, it has previously been argued that management should focus on a multi-island conservation target (regional scale), rather than on individual lagoons (local scale). However, it is unclear how a MPA network designed to meet objectives at a regional scale would impact on the management of resources at the local scale. In particular, it is necessary to understand if a regional plan might incidentally maintain conservation objectives at the local scale, without disproportionately affecting, or relying on particular islands. This study used the population of the giant clam (Tridacna maxima) in a fishery context to explore the distributions of conservation features and socio-economic costs for regional networks (computed within a set of islands), compared to individual islands. Designing a MPA network at regional scale led to unbalanced representation of conservation features among atolls and incidentally missed the targeted level of protection for conservation features at local scale. Moreover, the regional network generated inequitable costs for fishermen between islands, which is likely to lead to poor perceived equity. This study suggests that perceived equity and the representation of local conservation objectives will be major factors to consider, if the French Polynesian authorities follow the path of implementing MPAs in each atoll for a regional-scale resource management plan. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,31-39,,,93,,Mar.

We aim to show that remote sensing (RS), as demonstrated for terrestrial protected areas, has the potential to provide key information to support MPA management. We review existing literature on the use of RS to monitor biodiversity surrogates, e.g. ecological (e.g., primary productivity) and oceanographic (e.g., Sea Surface Temperature) parameters that have been shown to structure marine biodiversity. We then highlight the potential for RS to inform marine habitat mapping and monitoring, and discuss how RS can be used to track anthropogenic activities and its impacts on biodiversity in MPAs. Reasons for low integration of RS in MPA management and current limitations are also presented.

The current method for managing influenza is vaccination using a standardized amount of the influenza virus' primary surface antigen, hemagglutinin (HA), as the intended target of the immune response. This vaccination strategy results in vaccines with variable efficacy year to year due to antigenic drift of HA, which can be further exacerbated by manufacturing processes optimizing growth of vaccine virus in eggs. Due to these limitations, alternative vaccine platforms are actively being explored to improve influenza vaccine efficacy, including cell-based, recombinant protein, and mRNA vaccines. mRNA's rapid, in vitro production makes it an appealing platform for influenza vaccination, and the success of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines in the clinic has encouraged the development of mRNA vaccines for other pathogens. Here, the immunogenicity and protective efficacy of a quadrivalent mRNA vaccine encoding HA from four seasonal influenza viruses, A/California/07/2009 (H1N1), A/Hong Kong/4801/2014 (H3N2), B/Brisbane/60/2008 (B-Victoria lineage), and B/Phuket/3073/2013 (B-Yamagata lineage), was evaluated. In mice, a 120 mu g total dose of this quadrivalent mRNA vaccine induced robust antibody titers against each subtype that were commensurate with titers when each antigen was administered alone. Following A/California/04/2009 challenge, mice were fully protected from morbidity and mortality, even at doses as low as 1 mu g of each antigen. Additionally, a single administration of 10 mu g of quadrivalent mRNA was sufficient to prevent weight loss caused by A/California/04/2009. These results support the promise of this mRNA vaccine for prevention and mitigation of influenza vaccine.",,,,1,8,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001156078000001,,,,,,,A VIRUS; ANTIBODY-RESPONSES; CLEAVAGE; HEMAGGLUTININ; IMMUNITY; IMMUNOGENICITY; IMPACT; PROTECTION; PSEUDOURIDINE; SELECTION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The Gulf of Thailand, renowned for its rich marine biodiversity and significant economic importance, faces increasing challenges in balancing various maritime sectors and conserving its fragile ecosystems. This study proposes a novel methodology utilizing the Day/Night Band (DNB) imagery from the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) sensor to detect and monitor maritime activities in the Gulf of Thailand. The DNB data captured by VIIRS provides a unique perspective by capturing both daytime and nighttime human activities. This comprehensive approach enables a more holistic understanding of the region's dynamic nature of maritime activities. Through the analysis of VIIRS DNB imagery, we aim to identify and map different types of maritime activities, including vessel traffic, fishing operations, and offshore infrastructure. The application of VIIRS DNB imagery in MSP offers significant advantages. First, it allows for detecting and characterizing spatial and temporal patterns of maritime activities, providing valuable insights into their distribution and intensity. This information can support evidence-based decision-making processes, facilitating the establishment of marine protected areas, and fisheries management zones, and the reduction of potential conflicts among different maritime sectors. By integrating VIIRS DNB data with other relevant datasets in the future, such as Automatic Identification System (AIS) data and environmental variables, a more comprehensive understanding of the relationships between maritime activities and their impacts on the marine environment can be achieved. This integrated approach enables the identification of potential hotspots of human activity and their ecological consequences, aiding in the development of targeted conservation and management strategies. The findings of this study have broader implications for sustainable ocean governance and the development of MSP frameworks. The proposed methodology provides a powerful tool for policymakers, marine spatial planners, and stakeholders involved in the management and conservation of the Gulf of Thailand's marine resources. By utilizing VIIRS DNB imagery, decision-makers can gain valuable insights into the complex interactions between human activities and the marine environment, allowing for more informed and effective management strategies. Furthermore, the utilization of VIIRS DNB imagery contributes to the growing field of remote sensing in marine spatial planning. The integration of advanced technologies and data sources enhances our ability to monitor and assess maritime activities on a broader scale, leading to a more comprehensive understanding of marine ecosystems and their interactions with human activities. This study demonstrates the potential of utilizing VIIRS DNB imagery to detect and monitor maritime activities in the Gulf of Thailand. By providing detailed insights into spatial and temporal patterns of human activity, this methodology supports evidence-based decision-making and sustainable management practices.

The twin objectives of the study were to find out the effects of forest fire protection on tree phenology using Crown Density Method (CDM) and identify the potential uses of satellite images in monitoring tree phenology. Study area was identified and located with the help of satellite images (SPOT, Landsat, and ERS) and global positioning satellite (GPS). To survey the tree communities, six meter wide transects with a total length of 650 m in each site were laid out across the slope of the mountain following a bearing of 60 degrees. The seasonal variation in leafing, flowering and fruiting of trees was monitored over the period of eight months from May to December 1996, using crown density method. The mean community scores for senescent leaves in November and December were significantly higher in the burnt area, than in the protected area. Shorea siamensis var. siamensis and Craibiodendron stellatum (Pierre) W.W. Sm. retained their leaves longer in the dry season or early rainy season in the protected area than in the burnt area. Trees in the burnt area had less fruit in May than in the Protected area, even if their flowering scores were comparatively higher. Leafing phenologies of certain species were greatly altered. Burning seemed to affect the fruiting capacity of some of the trees. Overall, this study shows that fire protection is a useful conservation management tool in deciduous dipterocarp forest for changing tree phenologies toward more favorable conditions for wild animals.

Our objective was to assess the pro-environmental intentions of visitors at two small Greek islands, which are within a Natura 2000 site, specifically Paxoi and Antipaxoi. Intentions involved willingness to receive information about the protected area, willingness to accept pro-environmental limitations on recreational experience, and willingness-to-pay a conditional environmental conservation value added tax. In addition, we aimed to identify determinants of visitor pro-environmental intentions among visitor and visit characteristics, visitor satisfaction, and self-reported environmental knowledge, as well as anticipated outcomes of tourism development and suggestions for protected area management. We randomly collected 324 usable questionnaires during the summer season; 242 (74.69 %) by Greek visitors and 82 (25.31 %) by foreign visitors. Visitor satisfaction was quite high; however, visitors reported low levels of environmental knowledge. Our findings showed that the unique characteristics of the destination were not salient among visitors and that there is a lack of effective outreach campaigns, interpretation, and on-site environmental education programs. However, our study revealed high levels of visitor pro-environmental intentions that might support the promotion of ecotourism on the two islands. We provide recommendations based on determinants of visitor pro-environmental intentions, which might assist towards advancing visitor participation in environmental education projects, environmentally responsible behavior among visitors, and financial contribution to environmental conservation by visitors. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,64-76,,1,50,,Environ.

This is crucial to avoid “paper parks” and to encourage self-regulation and enhance social well-being among stakeholders. However, promoting sustained participation by diverse stakeholders is a challenge due to the diversity of ways in which they perceive the benefits of MPAs, and some of these perceptions are associated with specific occupations and value preferences. A place-based case study was conducted on the Yonarasuido Strait in the Yaeyama region, Japan, which is covered by two MPAs: a government-led top-down national park and a fishermen-led bottom-up spawning ground reserve. This study investigated local people's value preferences from instrumental, intrinsic, and relational perspectives using the Q-methodology and semi-structured interviews. To understand broader interactions among different groups, the study focused on both marine tourism and fisheries. The Q-method analysis identified three groupings based on the values people emphasize for the MPAs. As a result of the analysis, these groups were defined as (1) “Original Goals First,” characterized by the emphasis on initial objectives and fisheries resource management; (2) “Disconnected Stewards,” who expect nature conservation while being emotionally detached from the MPAs; and (3) “Tourism vs. Fisheries,” reflecting polar divisions between fisheries and marine tourism. The results suggest that understanding the value preferences of a diverse range of stakeholders through a comprehensive lens can provide a more holistic picture of MPA management and the areas of consensus and disagreement in the governance system. Based on the findings, recommendations for future MPA management are proposed regarding adaptive management, information dissemination, and collaboration between different stakeholder groups. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,261,,Ocean Coast.

Stability analyses of the approach, which consisted of a population dynamics model and a model to control MPA size, suggest that this procedure can lead to recovery of a depleted population and sustain that population at a predetermined target level, even when there is hyperstability (a non-linear relationship between population size and cpue). An alternative procedure using fishing effort instead of MPA size may also function well, although both procedures may need a long time for a depleted population to approach the target level. Performance of both procedures was examined using numerical simulations focused on system dynamics in the short term after management implementation. The procedure using MPA size was more effective at preventing population collapse. Simulations suggest that if this procedure starts from a desirable level of initial MPA size, it has advantages over the alternative procedure through creating speedier population recovery and a higher level of short-term catch. © 2008 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.

(Combretaceae), commonly-known as chebulic myrobalan is one of the important Non-Timber Forest Product (NTFP) species which is harvested for its fruits and galls. The species known as the “King of medicines” is used widely in Ayurveda, Sidda, Unani, and traditional Chinese medicines for curing a wide variety of diseases in Asia and Africa. Terminalia chebula is an important ingredient of Triphala (Ayurvedic medicine) along with Terminalia bellirica and Phyllanthus emblica. The fruits of the tree also yields a dye which is used as an organic dye in the textile industries. In recent years, there is an increasing demand for herbal remedies and organic dyes, resulting in extensive extraction of fruits and galls from T. chebula. In this study, the major objective was to identify sites for the conservation of T. chebula and to identify important environmental variables determining its distribution. Based on the existing species distribution records (primary and secondary), along with a suite of climatic variables, the present and future distribution of the species were predicted. The study identified ecological niches that are suitable for the cultivation of the species; the species occurs in India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Cambodia, Myanmar, Vietnam, China, Laos, Thailand, Bhutan, Taiwan, Nepal and Bangladesh under the current climatic scenario. Within India, our results suggest that the central and south India are highly suitable in the current scenario. The mean annual temperature, temperature seasonality and isothermality seem to be the most important variables determining the distribution of the species which is directly influenced by climate change. Overall, the study indicated that under the future climate change scenarios the distribution of T. chebula is likely to decrease. The results indicate that T. chebula is highly vulnerable to climate change. Considering the economic importance of the species, it is important to understand how the species distribution will alter in the wake of climate change to develop effective conservation strategies. The study also provides important environment variables that determine the species distribution which could aid in identifying areas where the species could be cultivated. © 2022, International Society for Tropical Ecology.",,584-595,,4,63,,Trop.

While such systems work for certain habitat-specific and nonmobile species, their utility for highly mobile stocks is questionable. Often the debate among proponents and critics of MPAs is confused by a lack of appreciation of the goals and objectives of such systems. The current consideration of MPAs as the basis of future fisheries management is a symptom of, and not the singular solution to, the problem of inappropriate implementation of fishing effort controls. The latter will provide greater overall conservation benefits if properly applied. Any future use of MPAs as an effective tool to achieve sustainable fisheries management in temperate systems should be treated as a large-scale, rigorously designed experiment to ensure that the outcome of using MPAs is interpreted correctly and not discredited for false reasons. © 2005 NRC.",,1194-1199,,5,62,,Can.

These impacts are patchily distributed according to the spatial and temporal variation in fishing effort that results from fishers' behaviour. As a consequence, the frequency and intensity of fishing disturbance varies among different habitat types. Different fishing methodologies vary in the degree to which they affect the seabed. Structurally complex habitats (e.g. seagrass meadows, biogenic reefs) and those that are relatively undisturbed by natural perturbations (e.g. deep-water mud substrata) are more adversely affected by fishing than unconsolidated sediment habitats that occur in shallow coastal waters. These habitats also have the longest recovery trajectories in terms of the recolonization of the habitat by the associated fauna. Comparative studies of areas of the seabed that have experienced different levels of fishing activity demonstrate that chronic fishing disturbance leads to the removal of high-biomass species that are composed mostly of emergent seabed organisms. Contrary to the belief of fishers that fishing enhances seabed production and generates food for target fish species, productivity is actually lowered as fishing intensity increases and high-biomass species are removed from the benthic habitat. These organisms also increase the topographic complexity of the seabed which has been shown to provide shelter for juvenile fishes, reducing their vulnerability to predation. Conversely, scavengers and small-bodied organisms, such as polychaete worms, dominate heavily fished areas. Major changes in habitat can lead to changes in the composition of the resident fish fauna. Fishing has indirect effects on habitat through the removal of predators that control bio-engineering organisms such as algal-grazing urchins. Fishing gear resuspend the upper layers of sedimentary seabed habitats and hence remobilize contaminants and fine particulate matter into the water column. The ecological significance of these fishing effects has not yet been determined but could have implications for eutrophication and biogeochemical cycling. Simulation results suggest that the effects of low levels of trawling disturbance will be similar to those of natural bioturbators. In contrast, high levels of trawling disturbance cause sediment systems to become unstable due to large carbon fluxes between oxic and anoxic carbon compartments. In low energy habitats, intensive trawling disturbance may destabilize benthic system chemical fluxes, which has the potential to propagate more widely through the marine ecosystem. Management regimes that aim to incorporate both fisheries and habitat conservation objectives can be achieved through the appropriate use of a number of approaches, including total and partial exclusion of towed bottom fishing gears, and seasonal and rotational closure techniques. However, the inappropriate use of closed areas may displace fishing activities into habitats that are more vulnerable to disturbance than those currently trawled by fishers. In many cases, the behaviour of fishers constrains the extent of the impact of their fishing activities. Management actions that force them to redistribute their effort may be more damaging in the longer term.",,114-136,,2,3,,Fish Fish.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,algae; ARENICOLA-MARINA; BENTHIC COMMUNITIES; closed areas; Closed areas; conservation; DEMERSAL FISH; disturbance; DISTURBANCE; ecological impact; fisheries; Fisheries; fishing; fishing effort; habitat modification; Habitat modification; Halophila; IMPACT; Lethrinidae; LONG-TERM; MANAGEMENT; management regimes; Management regimes; Martes; NORTH-SEA; Pisces; Polychaeta; SEDIMENT; SHELF; trawling; Trawling,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, evaluating the effectiveness of reserve implementation for long-lived species has been problematic as it requires sampling programmes over long timescales that are appropriate to species' longevity and recovery rates. In the sea, towed bottom fishing gears alter the biodiversity and ecosystem services provided by benthic communities and habitats. Marine reserves have been used to manage these impacts but our understanding of the drivers of their effectiveness for the conservation of temperate reefs is incomplete. We examined the effectiveness of marine reserves for recovery of temperate reef fauna in relation to their life history. We used an underwater video to sample six species with different life histories across 60 sites that varied in the duration of protection from towed mobile fishing gear at 0, 1, 8 and 10 years. Species with a high dispersal potential and less habitat specific requirements such as soft corals and king scallops recovered to close to their carrying capacity in <3 years. In contrast, the longer-lived Ross coral and pink seafans increased in abundance but had not fully recovered; with their projected recovery time being 17–20 years. Ongoing recovery was evident for long-lived species as their mean body size increased significantly across all treatments, whereas shorter-lived species such as queen scallops did not change in size and were assumed to have fully recovered. Synthesis and applications. This study shows that the recovery rates of biota depend on life-history factors, such as larval longevity and dispersal potential. Recovery for species that had low dispersal potential and specific habitat requirements was slow and could take >20 years. This suggests activities such as bottom trawling or dredging should be avoided where such species occur if their conservation is an objective. In contrast, species with high dispersal potential and less habitat specific requirements had shorter recovery timescales of c. 2-3 years and would be more amenable to managed trawl frequencies in areas where activities such as fishing occur. © 2018 The Authors.

Although nest predation is often described as opportunistic, little is known about foraging strategies and nest detection in primates. Since it is the prevalent cause of nest failure in the tropics, birds select nest sites within specific microhabitats and use different nest types to increase nesting success. Identifying the nests targeted by the northern pigtailed macaques (Macaca leonina), an omnivorous cercopithecine species, and known nest predator, will shine light on nest foraging strategies in primates. The aim of this research was to reveal if nest predation is a selective or opportunistic feeding behavior. We studied, using artificial nests and camera traps, the influence of nest type (open-cup vs. cavity), microhabitat (i.e., understory density, canopy cover, canopy height, ground cover, and presence vs. absence of thorns and lianas), and nest height, on nest predation by a troop of northern pigtailed macaques in the Sakaerat Biosphere Reserve (Thailand), a degraded environment. In our study, macaque predation on artificial nests was high; out of the 200 nests that were set up, 112 were plundered by macaques. Although predation rates decreased with nest height, nest type, and microhabitat had no significant effect on predation by macaques. Nest detectability and accessibility did not affect predation rates. Macaques actively searched for nests in different microhabitats, suggesting that nest predation by this primate might be considered a selective feeding behavior in this degraded habitat. Consequently, nest predation by this primate might have important conservation implications on the population dynamics of forest-dwelling bird species. Behavior observation methods, such as instantaneous scan sampling, may underestimate nest predation by primates, a furtive and cryptic behavior. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.",,,,11,80,,Am. J.

The need for environmental protection of the wetlands became necessary due to the continuing anthropogenic intervention, as well as to the climate changes that have been occurring in recent years. Relevant studies have shown that the lagoon of Messolonghion and Acheloos estuary are ecosystems that have been burdened by anthropogenic activities (pesticides, fertilizers, overexploitation of underground aquifers, intrusion and land use change), as well as by climatic changes (temperature, precipitation, sea level), which altogether have adversely affected the hydrodynamic and ecological balance of the entire ecosystem. The Messolonghion lagoon and Acheloos estuary are also the recipients of the wastewater processing plant effluents, operating locally, which have over-enriched the waters with macronutrients N, P and K, favouring eutrophication. The municipal wastewater reuse for crop irrigation grown in the protected area appears to be an environmentally acceptable solution for alleviating the natural water shortage, since it could save significant amounts of irrigation water as well as it could reduce the adverse effects of the treated effluents discharge into the aquatic ecosystem.

It is found that the category of protected natural areas of a regional significance, “nature parks”, meets best the aforementioned objectives. An overview of international experience of the establishment of regional nature parks is presented. A classification of nature parks has been carried out, which subdivides them into three conditional groups according to the distance from large settlements, the location relative to the other protected areas, the type of visitors, the quality and level of visited natural, cultural and historical sites as well as the state of the environment. The situation with the dragging out the establishment of new nature parks within the Baikal Natural Territory is discussed, in spite of the numerous initiatives and the previously prepared ecological-geographical substantiations for them. Only one nature park, Ivano-Arakhleiskii, has been established within the boundaries of the Baikal Natural Territory, and a further two parks, Shumak and Arei, are located in the vicinity of the boundaries of this territory. It is concluded that, in view of high anthropogenic pressures on the coast of Lake Baikal, they will provide access to the other natural territories by establishing the necessary infrastructure thus “drawing” to them the excessively great interest in the lake coast. This paper presents a list of 25 nature parks within the Baikal Natural Territory.

The results showed an increase in the number of works between 2012 and 2023, and they were especially conducted in Europe and Asia and less in North America, South America, and Oceania. Most studies were developed in terrestrial areas, and the International Union for Conservation of Nature classified them into types II and IV. Most of the works followed the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment classification and were mainly focused on the supply dimension. Regulating and maintenance and cultural ES were the most mapped dimensions in PAs. The most frequent provisioning ES mapped in PAs were Animals reared for nutritional purposes and Cultivated terrestrial plants grown for nutritional purposes. In regulating and maintenance, Maintaining nursery populations and habitats and Regulation of the chemical composition of the atmosphere and oceans were the most analysed. For cultural ES, Characteristics of living systems that enable activities promoting health, recuperation, or enjoyment through active or immersive interactions and Characteristics of living systems that enable aesthetic experiences were the most mapped ES in PAs. Most works followed a quantitative approach, although the number of qualitative studies is high. Finally, most of the works needed to be validated, which may hamper the credibility of mapping ES in PAs. Overall, this systematic review contributed to a global picture of studies distribution, the areas where they are needed, and the most popular dimensions and sections as the methodologies were applied. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,912,,Sci.

Leopard (Panthera pardus) typifies the problem faced by large carnivores. It is a threatened species with a wide distribution, with a large part of their range outside protected areas, leaving them vulnerable to human-leopard conflict. Understanding their status and diet in such non-protected forests is necessary for their long-term conservation. Aims: The present study aimed to estimate leopard density and assess their diet in a non-protected forest. Methods: A camera-trapping survey was carried out in the Kamdi forest corridor outside of protected areas, covering 791.29 km2 in the western part of Terai Arc Landscape (TAL) in Nepal. Leopard density was estimated based on the photographs obtained in camera traps, using Bayesian Explicit Capture-recapture (B-SECR) models. Scats of leopards were opportunistically collected (n = 60) and their diet analysed through micro-histological characters of hair remains. The frequency of occurrence and relative biomass of different prey species consumed by leopard was calculated. Key results: Leopard density was estimated to be 1.50 (± 0.49 s.e.) 100 km-2 in the survey area. Similarly, we identified 13 prey species in the leopard scats. Wild prey contributed the majority (67.8%) of leopard diet, including 23.2% of wild boar (Sus scrofa) and 18.3% of spotted deer (Axis axis). Nearly one-third of leopard diet consists of domestic livestock (cattle, goat, sheep) and dog. Conclusions: Leopard density was found to be relatively low in the forest corridor compared with protected areas. Nearly one-third of leopard diet from domestic livestock and dogs suggests that human-leopard conflict could be problematic in the survey area. Implications: Increasing prey density in the forest corridor and improving livestock husbandry in the periphery will contribute to increase leopard density, reduce the human-leopard conflict and enhance the functionality of the corridor. © 2020 CSIRO.",,460-467,,6,47,,Wildl.

The growing dependency on these ecosystems has largely contributed to aggravating the ecological risks, habitat degradation, and loss of ecosystem services. The present study evaluates the ecological risk emanating from nine anthropogenic stressors including river use, hydro-morphology, catchment pollution, and biological stressor on river Pranhita in Godavari Basin of Peninsular India using InVEST (Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Tradeoffs) Habitat Risk Assessment model. The primary field survey, remote sensing, and secondary data-assisted spatial modelling results revealed low ecological risk (R = 0.65 of 3) in river Pranhita due to anthropogenic activities. Sediment loading, the inflow of nitrogen, and habitat fragmentation were the major stressors with relatively higher risk score (> 1); influence on a sizeable portion of riverine habitat (29-75% of the total area under high-risk zone) indicates the mounting threat from catchment activities. The low-risk value observed in protected river reaches as compared to unprotected areas is likely to be influenced by the abundant presence of intact riparian vegetation which mitigate the catchment stressors and minimal anthropogenic activity within protected areas. This study demonstrates the application of InVEST HRA model for ecological risk assessment of riverine ecosystems and fish assemblages along with their input data generation framework. This has the potential for prioritization of sensitive habitats based on computed ecological risk and stressor identification based on their exposure and consequences for developing appropriate mitigation measures. This model is spatially explicit and accommodates user-defined criteria for ecosystem-level assessment at a regional and national scale to facilitate the resource managers and policymakers for conservation and restoration planning and implementation of targeted management measures for sustainable development.",,37579-37597,,13,30,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000904074000002,,,,,,,Anthropogenic stressor; BASIN; COASTAL; ECOSYSTEM SERVICES; FRESH-WATER FISH; Habitat risk; InVEST; LAND-USE; LULC; MARINE; PATTERN; Protected area; QUALITY; Riparian zone; SECURITY; ZONES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

It has been suggested that variable spacing between reserves is essential to the success of a system of marine reserves. We used numerical models to examine the effect of variable spacing on the efficacy of marine reserves for managing a fish species with sedentary adults and planktonic larvae. Variability in reserve spacing affected catch and recruitment relative to values for a uniform configuration of reserves only for populations near collapse even in the presence of a system of reserves. For species with low fishing rates or large marine reserves, variability in spacing had only a minor effect. At high fishing rates and small reserve sizes, variable reserve placement had a positive local effect on catch and recruitment when several reserves fell close to each other. These configurations led to uneven spatial distributions with greater catch and recruitment in areas with a higher concentration of reserves. Variable reserve spacing can offer additional protection to overfished populations along certain sections of the coastline, but concern for spatial homogeneity will argue for a uniform distribution of reserves covering an adequate proportion of the entire coastline. © 2005 NRC.",,905-912,,4,62,,Can.

These models can be used as forecasting tools, to strategically evaluate management options and to support ecosystem-based management. Here we report the results of such forecasts in the California Current, using an Atlantis end-to-end model. We worked collaboratively with fishery managers at NOAA's regional offices and staff at the National Marine Sanctuaries (NMS) to explore the impact of fishery policies on management objectives at different spatial scales, from single Marine Sanctuaries to the entire Northern California Current. In addition to examining Status Quo management, we explored the consequences of several gear switching and spatial management scenarios. Of the scenarios that involved large scale management changes, no single scenario maximized all performance metrics. Any policy choice would involve trade-offs between stakeholder groups and policy goals. For example, a coast-wide 25% gear shift from trawl to pot or longline appeared to be one possible compromise between an increase in spatial management (which sacrificed revenue) and scenarios such as the one consolidating bottom impacts to deeper areas (which did not perform substantially differently from Status Quo). Judged on a coast-wide scale, most of the scenarios that involved minor or local management changes (e.g. within Monterey Bay NMS only) yielded results similar to Status Quo. When impacts did occur in these cases, they often involved local interactions that were difficult to predict a priori based solely on fishing patterns. However, judged on the local scale, deviation from Status Quo did emerge, particularly for metrics related to stationary species or variables (i.e. habitat and local metrics of landed value or bycatch). We also found that isolated management actions within Monterey Bay NMS would cause local fishers to pay a cost for conservation, in terms of reductions in landed value. However, this cost was minimal when local conservation actions were part of a concerted coast-wide plan. The simulations demonstrate the utility of using the Atlantis end-to-end ecosystem model within NOAA's Integrated Ecosystem Assessment, by illustrating an end-to-end modeling tool that allows consideration of multiple management alternatives that are relevant to numerous state, federal and private interests. © 2012.",,May-18,,,102,,Prog.

However, information on the role of governance mechanisms, in particular those associated with compliance, in shaping ecological condition inside MPAs at the regional scale remains deficient. An exploratory data analysis was conducted to evaluate links between strategies used to promote compliance with MPA regulations (e.g. incentives and penalties) and indicators of ecological condition, including biomass and density of commercial fish species, fish functional groups and coral cover in 21 MPAs across 13 different countries and territories in the greater Caribbean region. The strategies used to promote compliance with MPA regulations were correlated with indicators of ecological condition. For example, MPAs in which a larger number of incentives and penalties are present in the governance system are associated with higher commercial fish biomass and density as compared to those with fewer penalties and incentives available to promote compliance. Although most MPAs in the greater Caribbean use penalties to enforce compliance, these results suggest incentives may also be an important governance strategy for ensuring efficacy of protected areas in conserving key species. Alternatively, the presence of a high number of penalties and incentives in governance systems may also be indicative of greater state capacity and political will in these MPAs resulting in better managed MPAs. Further research is necessary to evaluate results of the exploratory data analysis presented in this study with a more in depth analysis of the de facto use of the regulations evaluated and their efficacy. Multi-country comparisons of MPA governance and ecological indicators can help policy and decision makers maintain MPAs that most effectively achieve MPA conservation objectives. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,186-195,,,62,,Mar.

Modeling the expected responses of targeted species to an MPA network, with a clear timeline for those expectations, can aid in the development of a monitoring program that efficiently evaluates expectations over appropriate time frames. Here, we describe the expected trajectories in abundance and biomass following MPA implementation for populations of 19 nearshore fishery species in California. To capture the process of filling in the age structure truncated by fishing, we used age-structured population models with stochastic larval recruitment to predict responses to MPA implementation. We implemented both demographically open (high larval immigration) and closed (high self-recruitment) populations to model the range of possible trajectories as they depend on recruitment dynamics. From these simulations, we quantified the time scales over which anticipated increases in abundance and biomass inside MPAs would become statistically detectable. Predicted population biomass responses range from little change, for species with low fishing rates, to increasing by a factor of nearly seven, for species with high fishing rates before MPA establishment. Increases in biomass following MPA implementation are usually greater in both magnitude and statistical detectability than increases in abundance. For most species, increases in abundance would not begin to become detectable for at least 10 years after implementation. Overall, these results inform potential indicator metrics (biomass), potential indicator species (those with a high fishing?:?natural mortality ratio), and time frame (>10 yr) for MPA monitoring assessment as part of the adaptive management process. © 2019 by the Ecological Society of America",,,,6,29,,Ecol.

Some of this variability can result from spatiotemporally heterogeneous patterns of human activity. To characterize this variability and the extent to which anthropogenic sound can modify the biological soundscape, seven Hawaiian reefs were equipped with acoustic recorders operating on a 10% duty cycle for 16 months. Spatially, vessel activity was acoustically detected unevenly across reefs; for example, vessels were acoustically present almost every day at a popular snorkeling reef but were rare in a protected area closed to boats, which indicates that exposure of reef fauna to vessel noise will vary by reef. Temporally, vessel activity was most likely to occur during daylight hours, which is consistent with patterns of human activity. This heterogeneity in exposure could have implications for physiology and behavior and underscores the need for long-term acoustic monitoring alongside more targeted studies investigating the potential for effects of noise on aquatic organisms. © 2016 Acoustical Society of America.",,,,,27,,,,,,,,Acoustical Society of America,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: Proc.

This study aims to present monitoring the development of a small-scale artificial nourished beach between the groins for 15 months and analyze its performance. For this purpose, field studies were carried out with land and sea observations taken once before nourishment and at 8 different times after nourishment. The seabed and profile variations observed at different sections were analyzed after processing field data. For determining the characteristics of the natural beach and borrow area before nourishment a sieve analysis was done for sediment samples taken from the shoreline, beach face, and 1-m depth on the nourished area. Sediment transportation of nourished material was observed by monitoring the amount of material remaining in 3 sub-regions (a nearshore region between the groins - A, a region representing the seaward end of the groins - B, and a region offshore of the groins - C) in the nourished region over time. The relationship between this behavior and waves was examined by considering the wave roses and time series of wave parameters produced as a result of wave simulations performed with the third-generation wave hindcast model SWAN. Lastly, as well as the variation of the mean layer thickness, the retreat of coastline, and mean beach width on the nourished area by the time were extracted for 8 different surveys. The results show that artificial beach nourishment materials were eroded in less than five months and the beach width returned to its initial position.

However, this assumption is often violated. This paper aimed to combine species-area relationship (SAR)-based target setting with multispecies occupancy models to better represent communities with a large proportion of rare species, such as marine invertebrate macrofauna, include variable species detection and quantify uncertainty around conservation targets. Location South African West Coast continental shelf. Methods The macro-infaunal dataset used in these analyses consisted of 427 species from 42 sites and 220 samples. To examine the effect of variable species detection and include uncertainty around conservation targets, we compared asymptotic estimator-based targets with those based on multispecies site occupancy models (MSOMs) in a Bayesian framework, which allowed us to account for the observation process and quantify uncertainty more comprehensively. Results Targets based on MSOM were generally higher than those based on asymptotic estimators, with wider credible intervals. Between 10% and 15% (95% credible interval) of the area should be protected to represent 80% of the species, with the exception of one habitat with many common species that had a conservation target of 2%. Main conclusions Detection error-corrected targets based on MSOM are higher than uncorrected targets based on asymptotic estimators for habitats with lower detection and higher proportions of rare species. Our estimated conservation targets are close to the 10% target for marine habitats set by the Convention of Biological Diversity and in line with international studies but should be considered minimum targets as they do not take into account species persistence. Our results affirm the value of the modified SAR approach, which is applicable to any marine or terrestrial ecosystem.

Our efforts put in place to preserve the quality of marine life linking poverty reduction based on environmental concerns in support of sustainable and equitable development in ways that benefit marine life, coastal communities and economies. We analyze to recognize alternative ways that benefit marine park areas, to improve the states of coastal communities and to progress towards the local economy. The aim of this study is to look at magnitude of income variation and vulnerability as environmental constraints and the factors that may alleviate such risk among the poor community. This study finds several extents of susceptibility in the marine park areas and what are the factors that lessen such risk among the poor community. To advocate the study approaches several vital parameters consider such as income related liability, employment in tourism related income, level of asset, income of poor people and their respective percentage and alternative livelihood among the marine park community.

We explored an area-efficient and balanced set of criteria to find areas that best complement existing protected areas for achieving these targets. We used distribution maps of all threatened vertebrates in a systematic conservation planning approach and compared four different methods of weighting species and locations: 1) species weighted equally, 2) weighted by distribution characteristics (i.e. presence, origin, seasonality) and important habitat surrogates (Important Bird Areas and Endemic Bird Areas), 3) species' level of endemism, and IUCN Red List threat status, and 4) considering opportunity cost based on levels of urbanization to reflect the current land's ecological conditions. We then determined the extent to which existing protected areas cover conservation priorities for different species groups, and explored how new priorities complement Iran's protected area network to achieve national target to protect 20 % of its land area. Our findings showed that parts of terrestrial ecoregions in the north, north-west and west of the country were consistently important in all scenarios, representing the best places to start increasing protected area coverage. Protecting 20 % of the country in the prioritizations constrained by existing protected areas would conserve biodiversity groups in 70 % to 100 % of their distribution, except for birds and mammals for which the protection coverage was lower.

Within the scope of species conservation, achieving MPA objectives demands understanding of the role played by MPAs for the target species. In 2014, Brazilian stakeholders and experts set the action plan for elasmobranchs’ conservation, which intended to create new protected areas and expand the existing ones. Nevertheless, more than 65% of Brazilian elasmobranch species are threatened by anthropogenic pressures such as fisheries and habitat loss. In addition, their ecological aspects are not well studied, which might jeopardize the success of the proposed actions. To assess the functionality and effectiveness of two no-take MPAs for sixteen demersal species, the Wildlife Refuge of Alcatrazes (WRA) and the Tupinambás Ecological Station (TES), we evaluated the community structure, space-time variations in functional diversity and changes in fishery indicators. Community dynamics were driven by inshore intrusion and time persistent effects of a cold and nutrient-rich water mass, the South Atlantic Central Water, which increased the relative abundance of species, functional groups, and overall diversity. Spatially, the heterogeneity of benthic habitats, due to the action of stronger waves in specific parts of the MPAs, reflects a diverse community of benthic invertebrates, explaining differences in relative abundance and similarities in space use by the functional groups. Regarding effectiveness, the MPAs make up a key network with the surrounding protection areas to support the ecosystem maintenance on the central and northern coast of the Săo Paulo state. The establishment of the TES has positively influenced the community throughout the years while the recent creation of the WRA may have promoted some improvements in fisheries indicators for a threatened guitarfish. We propose different functions of the Alcatrazes archipelago for each species and suggest some measures to enhance not only elasmobranch conservation but also the MPAs’ effectiveness. © Copyright © 2021 Karlovic, Gomes, Paiva, Babcock and Dias.",,,,,8,,Front.

Participatory mapping offers an opportunity to include local knowledge in spatial planning for natural resource management. However, local knowledge presents certain challenges in the form of data inconsistencies, fuzziness, and inability to disaggregate different types and formats of knowledge. Using the case of fisheries in southern Maharashtra state, India, I demonstrate how local ecological knowledge may be used to improve the understanding of data-poor fisheries. In the context of fisheries that are globally recognised as lacking management, I examine how local ecological and spatial knowledge about species and fishing practices can be used to fill fine-scale management gaps that do not account for context-specific habitat use. I also explore how fishers'spatial knowledge is intertwined with other forms of local knowledge. The participatory mapping exercise demonstrates that although fishing communities do not profess to be interested in threatened marine species conservation, their spatial and customary fishing practices potentially align with conservation goals. Clear synergies between livelihoods and marine conservation emerge when using local ecological knowledge along with participatory mapping. This research demonstrates that successful fisheries management and marine conservation planning is possible using existing social, cultural practices, translated through geographic tools. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,135,,Mar.

Responses of fish species to protection were highly variable, and therefore indicators calculated at the fish community level were ambiguous. According to 11 of 13 community-level indicators, sites located within the no-take zone fared more poorly over time than did sites in the surrounding fished area. However, we were able to detect positive reserve effects using a newly-proposed pair of indicators, which take into account spatial distribution of different species at the time of the no-take zone implementation. These indicators showed that species subject to low fishing pressure increased inside and to a lesser extent outside the no-take zone, while species subject to higher levels of fishing pressure increased in the no-take zone but decreased in the fished area. Indicators of changes in the fish community were not correlated with those related to the benthic community, and we suggest that indicators be carefully selected to match management objectives. We also find that positive reserve effects based on present-day data (e.g., higher abundances of commercial species inside the no-take zone versus outside) were often not associated with increases in fish densities over time, and suggest caution when interpreting abundance patterns in the absence of historical data. We recommend that similar studies be carried out at a variety of reserve sites, to test our proposed indicators and increase our understanding of community-level responses to fisheries closures. © 2014 Published by Elsevier Ltd.",,454-465,,,46,,Ecol.

Yet, marine reserves may cause some species to decrease in abundance while others increase, in part because species are not equally impacted by the effort displaced from the reserve into surrounding fished areas. We evaluate temporal patterns in the abundance and distribution of reef fishes at Glover's Atoll, Belize, where a no-take reserve was enforced in 1998. For the set of commercial species investigated in our study, the most important variable in predicting species responses to reserve protection was the prereserve spatial distribution of fishes with respect to reserve boundaries. Variation in species responses to protection could not be attributed to benthic habitat degradation, but maximum body length and trophic level were both positively correlated with response to protection. We suggest that reserve implementation caused mortality rates to increase for some fish species that were originally distributed in higher abundances outside reserve boundaries, leading to declines in abundance in these populations. These findings highlight the importance of incorporating knowledge on spatial distributions of fishes when designing and monitoring marine reserves. Our methods can be used by reserve managers to predict the responses of individual species to protection at the time of reserve implementation, thereby facilitating agreement between the expectations of fishery managers and the needs of stakeholders. © Inter-Research 2011.",,235-246,,,432,,Mar.

We tested the null hypothesis that there is no significant difference in density of target species inside and outside MPAs and also evaluated changes in density over time. The con founding variables water depth and substrate type were controlled by equalizing sampling effort. For the analysis, we used ANOVA with the factors treatment (MPA vs. fished), location of site pair (San Miguel Island, north Santa Rosa Island and southwest Santa Rosa Island) and time (2005 to 2008). Because the main factors were crossed, interactions between factors were used to indicate possible significant effects. Multiple t-tests were used to test for significant treatment effects depending on the type of interaction. Most significant interactions were associated with location. There was only one significant interaction between treatment and time. Using multiple comparison tests instead of averages from the main factors in the ANOVA exposed the underlying variability. No species was consistently more abundant in MPAs than in fished sites at all locations. This study evaluates the first 5 yr after implementation of the MPAs.

Here, we evaluate the biological response, in terms of fish density and the biomass of commercially valuable and ecologically important reef fish species, to a spatial gradient of fishery management enforcement, in terms of fish density and biomass, of commercially valuable and ecologically important reef fish species. The enforcement gradient is characterized by the level of protection, fishing effort, patrolling effort, distance to the nearest fishing port, and fishing intensity. Fish density and biomass were estimated from visual scuba surveys. Areas with higher levels of enforcement support higher levels of average biomass (up to 1378 kg/ha) and density (up to 2367 indv./ha) of commercially important fishes in comparison to areas with very low or no enforcement (estimates of 757 kg/ha average biomass and 1090 indv./ha average density, respectively). These fish density and biomass levels can serve as proxies in the development of harvest control rules that adjust fishing pressure according to the ratio of fished density or biomass to unfished density or biomass, through the use of the MPA Density Ratio method. © 2024 by the authors.",,,,9,9,,Fishes,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,Common Fisheries Policy; Cuba; data-limited; fisheries conservation; fisheries policy; fishery-independent data; fishing mortality; marine park; marine protected areas; MPA density ratio; precautionary management; stock assessment; stocking density; surveillance and enforcement; viability,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Floating islands planted with native emergent macrophytes offer a solution for internal nutrient removal. These'active barriers’ have been applied in various inland waters, but never in coastal and marine environments. First coastal floating wetlands were installed in different lagoons along the Southern Baltic Sea. However, prior to these installations a comprehensive site selection and permit process had to be carried out. Participatory mapping was performed, law regulations in five European countries investigated and open-source data was integrated to evaluate where suitable installation sites would be. Regional environmental conditions influence how a floating wetland is designed, planted and installed, but do not limit the choice of installation sites explicitly. Restrictions and site choices depend largely on ‘social preferences’ and legal requirements. The participatory mapping showed that visibility of the floating wetlands is important. The proximity to the shore, and hence to potential bathing sites, as well as the proximity to larger cities or tourist destinations are important decision-making factors. The legal steps in the permit process differ in European countries and transferability is difficult. However, all case studies share in common that open waterways and undisturbed maritime traffic are a priority. All investigated lagoons belong to the European Natura 2000 network and are protected habitats. Nevertheless, this does not per se have to complicate the permit process for floating wetlands as the aim of the macrophyte islands is in accordance with the regional, national and European laws on nature protection. A variety of scientific articles proved the usefulness of floating wetlands for nutrient removal in mesocosm experiments. It is time to pave the way for pilot installations in coastal waters.

Many nations, including Indonesia, are establishing country-specific criteria to define what qualifies as an OECM. However, demonstrating the biodiversity contributions of Indonesia's 382 identified potential OECMs (i.e., non-MPA areas, governed and managed, and likely contributing to biodiversity conservation) poses a challenge due to the absence of national monitoring systems outside MPAs. A spatial approach was used to provide an overview of the expected ecological contributions of potential OECMs upon formal recognition. Potential OECMs were, on average, five times smaller (26,838 ha) than MPAs (133,524 ha). Together with MPAs, they formed a denser conservation network, with many encompassing climate refugia reefs. Upon full recognition, potential OECMs could contribute to conserving <1%, 12%, and 8% of the nation's mangroves, seagrass, and coral reef areas, respectively. Potential OECMs were restricted to coastal areas, and situated in various ecological contexts, including areas typically excluded from MPA designation, such as turbid reefs. Recognizing these OECMs could potentially add 10 million ha to national marine conservation areas. Collectively, MPAs and potential OECMs could contribute to conserving 13% of the nation's waters by 2030. Potential OECMs are effective locally and offer unique strengths, including diverse governance approaches, long-term presence, and potential socioeconomic benefits. Nonetheless, they face challenges from human pressures that may compromise their effectiveness. Formal recognition and strengthening of these areas could help mitigate these risks. This study highlights the potential of recognizing OECMs to enhance conservation efforts in Indonesia, complementing the existing MPA network. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,258,,Ocean Coast.

When accidental oil spills occur, spatial dispersion of the initial oil cover and assessing the temporal changes that affect it are important factors for recovery operations. Herein, the method proposed aims to facilitate a better understanding of the potential oil spread and oil-float flow from the source of the spill to adjacent coastal zones. Space-borne wide-swath SAR data is used in this regard, as it covers relatively large areas compared with other ground-based remote-sensing techniques and offer day and night observation under all weather conditions in coastal zones. The backscattered radar signal from a VV polarimetric channel, which showed a higher sensitivity for changes in the sea-surface roughness, was used. Heterogeneous surface-scattering phenomena were observed, and the amplitude image was a prominent factor in the formation of a Bragg surface around the seashore, which facilitated a better understanding of the spatial dispersion of a spilt oil layer and its temporal changes. The proposed method was applied to an oil-slick spread that happened after an oil tanker ran aground on a coral reef near Blue Bay Marine Park, south-east of the Mauritius Island, in July 2020. The method for deriving the separability between the oil and the non-oil sea surface was to render per-pixel classifiers more efficient for both speckle smoothing and texture preservation in satellite images. Furthermore, sea wind speed and direction, derived from SAR amplitude images, were used to assess the limitations and reliability of the proposed method.

The game utilizes a specifically designed graph-based setting which captures spatial arrangements of the protected area, for instance industrial premises or warehouses, wherein certain valuable assets are stored. The game is played by two sides: the evader who attempts to steal or destroy the assets and the defender whose aim is to intercept the evader and prevent him/her from accomplishing his/her goal. Real-life specificity of the proposed game assumes information asymmetry between the two sides as the evader can usually observe defender's patrolling schedules prior to making decision of an attack. For this reason, we employ the Stackelberg Game principles to model our game and consequently focus on approximation of Stackelberg Equilibrium during the solution process. To this end we propose a novel approach, called Mixed-UCT, which relies on Upper Confidence Bound applied to Trees algorithm – a variant of Monte Carlo Tree Search. The efficacy of the proposed solution method is experimentally evaluated on randomly generated games played in warehouse-like, industrial environment. The results show that Mixed-UCT is efficient and scales very well for multi-step games with reasonable number of steps, leading to optimal or close-to-optimal strategies. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.",,255-268,,1,277,,Eur J Oper Res,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier B.V.,,,,Artificial intelligence; Conservation; Game theory; Graphic methods; Industrial environments; Information asymmetry; MCTS; Monte Carlo methods; Monte-Carlo tree searches; Security games; Stackelberg equilibrium; Stackelberg games; Stackelberg Games; Trees (mathematics); Upper confidence bound; Warehouses,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The modified vaccinia ankara virus-expressing antigen 85A (MVA85A) aims to boost BCG immunity. We evaluated the animal evidence supporting the testing of MVA85A in humans. Methods: Our protocol included in vivo preclinical studies of the MVA85A booster with BCG compared with BCG alone, followed by a TB challenge. We used standard methods for systematic review of animal studies, and summarized mortality, measures of pathology and lung bacterial load. The comprehensive literature search was to September 2014. Two independent investigators assessed eligibility and performed data extraction. We assessed study quality and pooled bacteria load using random effect meta-analysis. Findings: We included eight studies in 192 animals. Three experiments were in mice, two in guinea pigs, two in macaques and one in calves. Overall, study quality was low with no randomization, baseline comparability not described and blinding not reported. For animal death (including euthanasia due to severe morbidity), studies were underpowered, and overall no benefit demonstrated. No difference was shown for lung pathology measured on an ordinal scale or bacterial load. The largest mortality trial carried out in macaques had more deaths in the MVA85A vaccine group, and was published after a trial in South Africa had started recruiting children. Conclusions: This independent assessment of the animal data does not provide evidence to support efficacy of MVA85A as a BCG booster. More rigorous conduct and reporting of preclinical research are warranted, and we believe the results of studies should be publicly available before embarking on trials in humans, irrespective of the findings. © The Author 2015.",,1970-1981,,6,44,,Int.

The research was performed as part of the development of a “Strategy for the socio-economic development of the Orlinovsky Municipal District” using economic-mathematical, socio-communicative, recreational-geographical scientific approaches. With the help of the QGIS software package, a database of natural and cultural-historical attractions, infrastructure facilities, tourist and recreational routes of the Orlinovsky Municipal District has been compiled and appropriate thematic layers have been created. This made it possible to develop the basic principles for the development of a model of sustainable tourism in the Orlinovsky Municipal District with the launch of a pilot experimental project for the integrated development of the territory. The goal is to preserve natural heritage and define the category of “particularly valuable lands” with the concentration of new business, tourist and recreational activities in one point in the district. The following solutions are proposed: changing the status of lands — highlighting the category of “particularly valuable lands” (land of protected areas, the entire water protection territory and lands located inside the ring road passing around the reservoir) and “development points” (territories with an area of at least 200 hectares with better logistics and transport accessibility, on which new social, tourist, recreational and business facilities will be created, utility and energy infrastructure will be provided — presumably the area of the village of Tylovoe, and in the future several areas as “growth points”); activation of entrepreneurial initiatives; formation of additional tourist display facilities and attractions; involvement of local communities in the tourist and recreational development of the territory; creation of a visitor center, etc. For sustainable development, it is necessary to create a master plan for the development of the Orlinovsky Municipal District, taking into account the priority tourist and recreational focus. © 2023 Lomonosov Moscow State University.

The study was conducted during the attack season of Siganus sp. on seaweed, namely from June to August, in the waters of Lakeba Beach, Bau-Bau City, Southeast Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. The method involved the storing of 20 thalli eaten by fish and 20 thalli broken by physical fractures in protected and unprotected areas. The parameters observed were thallus recovery, specific growth rate (SGR), and water quality. The results showed that the seaweed thallus recovery time in the protected area from fish bite marks and physical fractures was on average 11 and 13.7 days, respectively, while in the unprotected area it was 15 and 22.2 days, respectively. Furthermore, the SGR value for the thallus bitten by fish and the physical fracture in the protected area were 5.57 and 5.18% per day, respectively, while the SGR in unprotected areas were 4.20 and 4.56% per day, respectively.

The work environment was challenging because research activities were controlled by industries and the fishery administration. I became a cetacean scientist in 1961 and worked mainly in the western North Pacific. There I witnessed the collapse of coastal populations of striped dolphins and sperm whales as a result of over-hunting. Nonetheless, my research revealed fascinating aspects of cetacean biology, which still await explanation, such as the following: neighboring populations of the same species having different breeding seasons, the role of reproductively senescent females in some toothed whales, the role of ""social sex"" in short-finned pilot whales, and the selective benefit of male Baird's beaked whales living longer than the females. New methodologies are required to address these questions. I propose to include the following aims for the conservation biology of cetaceans: to identify a community as a conservation unit, and to focus on conserving the cultural diversity and variability of such communities, and henceforth to focus increased research on understanding the contribution of individuals within a community. Today, marine mammal biologists of all fields need to pay more attention to conservation. © 2008 by the Society for Marine Mammalogy.",,749-773,,4,24,,Mari. Mamm.

Thus, the study of ectomycorrhizal fungi has been carried out in the Bryanskiy Les State Nature Biosphere Reserve, located in the south-eastern part of the Bryansk woodlands (European Russia). Forest types featured in the study are the local predominating types, namely green-moss-fructiculose pine forests and polydominant deciduous broadleaved nemoral-herbaceous forests with spruce. This study was aimed to assess seasonal dynamics of soil fungi’ biomass overall and ectomycorrhizal fungi in particular over the course of the 2017 vegetation period (May – November) and its dependence on biotic and abiotic environmental factors, such as soil water content, temperature and vegetation. The vegetation period was divided into three periods of observation, namely an early (May – July), middle (July – September) and late (September – November) one. The method used to assess the fungal biomass was direct microscopic observation using the fluorescein diacetate staining. In order to estimate the ectomycorrhizal fungi biomass separately, trenching and in-growth mesh bags were employed. The obtained results suggest that the soil fungi biomass steadily increases over the vegetation period in both studied forest types. This is mostly affected by the forest type, available water amount and seasonal changes, while the temperature’s impact is less pronounced. On average, the soil fungi biomass was higher in broadleaved forests than in pine forests (2.288 mg C × g-1soil vs. 1.672 mg C × g-1soil, respectively), with non-ectomycorrhizal component having comparable biomass. The dynamics of biomass differed in the two forest types. However, noticeable differences (p < 0.1) between the two forest types have only been recorded during the July – September period. The biomass of ectomycorrhizal fungi is smaller than the biomass of non-mycorrhizal fungi, but at the same time it is less affected by changes in moisture. Besides that, the study has shown that the forest litter characteristics can greatly affect the dynamics of the fungal biomass. © 2023, Fund for Support and Development of Protected Areas """"Bear Land"""".

The range of institutional approaches as well as the range of goals in defining and managing MPAs generates a diversity of ecological, social and economic outcomes. Using Tanzania as a case study, this paper examines the role of village liaison committees (VLCs) as an institutional approach to MPA management in addressing socio-ecological objectives. The main research question is how VLCs affect the success of biodiversity conservation and resource management objectives. Six VLCs from one of the three marine parks in Tanzania were randomly selected for this study. Data was collected through household interviews, key informants interviews, and focus group discussions with selected members of each of the VLCs chosen, and from MPA managers, village leaders, marine resource users, members of NGOs and researchers. The data collected was triangulated with secondary sources from published materials and with information generated during participant observation. The findings show that during the beginning of establishment of the park VLCs mobilised much greater participation and were viewed as effective conduits to MPA activities. However, the active participation of individual members within VLCs decreased with time due to unforeseen outcomes of marine conservation. Over 70% of survey respondents reported that the active role of VLCs to support the park activities has decreased significantly. This study demonstrates how institutional approaches in MPA governance are often poorly translated and adapted to fit the local context they are introduced to. © 2020",,,,,117,,Mar.

In recent years, the protected areas management paradigm —including MPA management—has started to promote inclusive and collaborative practices. At least on paper, this shift, and the multi-stakeholder engagement and partnerships that came along with it, should have led to better conservation outcomes—at the same time as ensuring that people affected by conservation measures have access to alternative or supplementary livelihood opportunities. In reality, the record of MPAs has been quite mixed. The aim of this study is to examine stakeholder engagement and collaboration in MPA management actions that have occurred in the Mnazi Bay-Ruvuma Estuary Marine Park (MBREMP) in southern Tanzania—in view of exploring whether existing collaborations have influenced conservation outcomes. Fieldwork results, arising from key informant interviews, participant observation, focus group discussions and a survey, show that contacts and interactions between stakeholders followed a bureaucratic process without clear and shared goals that could make conservation and livelihood objectives compatible. Unclear and poorly coordinated processes—both in relation to conservation activities, such as enforcement of the park's regulations, and in relation to livelihood projects—hampered the proper functioning of MBREMP and its actual and potential stakeholders. As a result, both conservation and socio-economic outcomes have been problematic.

Yet little is known about their impacts on biodiversity conservation and the well-being of the targeted communities. This study focuses primarily on alternative livelihood projects undertaken among selected groups of individuals, in six villages, located in the Mnazi Bay-Ruvuma Estuary Marine Park (MBREMP), Mtwara district, southern Tanzania. The aim was to investigate how the processes involved in the implementation of these new livelihood activities contributed to the expected outcomes of providing good returns to reduce community's dependency on the sea and improve conservation. Data were collected through focus group discussions with selected members of local community, who actively took part in the projects; key informant interviews with conservation personnel and district fisheries officials; questionnaire surveys of a random sample of project beneficiary households; and a review of pertinent documents. The overwhelming majority of survey respondents (90%) reported that the projects were allocated inappropriately. Interviews and focus groups further revealed that the purpose of alternative projects was not sufficiently clear and that many beneficiaries perceived that these projects were initiated simply to comply with the MBREMP regulations. Overall, 70% of survey respondents stated that the project activities could not compete with the income gained from fisheries. An analysis of documents further revealed that almost all projects began to flounder when funding from the MBREMP came to an end. This was because they were not supported beyond the pilot phase and, thereafter, insufficient revenue was generated to maintain running costs. Improved targeting and design of livelihood interventions will ensure that the projects achieve the goals of providing alternatives for fishers, increasing well-being and improving biodiversity conservation.

They are largely in poor environmental condition with deteriorating trends. Despite several success stories, European policies for marine conservation fall short of being effective. Acknowledging the challenges for marine conservation, a 4-year multi-national network, MarCons, supported collaborative marine conservation efforts to bridge the gap between science, management and policy, aiming to contribute in reversing present negative trends. By consolidating a large network of more than 100 scientists from 26 countries, and conducting a series of workshops over 4 years (2016–2020), MarCons analyzed challenges, opportunities and obstacles for advancing marine conservation in the European and contiguous seas. Here, we synthesize the major issues that emerged from this analysis and make 12 key recommendations for policy makers, marine managers, and researchers. To increase the effectiveness of marine conservation planning, we recommend (1) designing coherent networks of marine protected areas (MPAs) in the framework of marine spatial planning (MSP) and applying systematic conservation planning principles, including re-evaluation of existing management zones, (2) designing MPA networks within a broader transboundary planning framework, and (3) implementing integrated land-freshwater-sea approaches. To address inadequate or poorly informed management, we recommend (4) developing and implementing adaptive management plans in all sites of the Natura 2000 European conservation network and revising the Natura 2000 framework, (5) embedding and implementing cumulative effects assessments into a risk management process and making them operational, and (6) promoting actions to reach ‘good environmental status’ in all European waters. To account for global change in conservation planning and management, we further recommend (7) developing conservation strategies to address the impacts of global change, for example identifying climate-change refugia as high priority conservation areas, and (8) incorporating biological invasions in conservation plans and prioritizing management actions to control invasive species. Finally, to improve current practices that may compromise the effectiveness of conservation actions, we recommend (9) reinforcing the collection of high-quality open-access data, (10) improving mechanisms for public participation in MPA planning and management, (11) prioritizing conservation goals in full collaboration with stakeholders, and (12) addressing gender inequality in marine sciences and conservation. © Copyright © 2020 Katsanevakis, Coll, Fraschetti, Giakoumi, Goldsborough, Ma?i?, Mackelworth, Rilov, Stelzenmüller, Albano, Bates, Bevilacqua, Gissi, Hermoso, Mazaris, Pita, Rossi, Teff-Seker and Yates.",,,,,7,,Front.

Ecosystem based marine spatial management (EB-MSM) is an approach that recognizes the full array of interactions within an ecosystem, including human uses, rather than considering single issues, species, or ecosystem services in isolation. Marine spatial planning and ocean zoning are emerging concepts that can support EB-MSM. EB-MSM is driven by high-level goals that managers aim to achieve through the implementation of measures. High-level goals and objectives need to be translated into more operational objectives before specific targets, limits and measures can be elaborated.Monitoring, evaluation and adaptation are necessary to ensure that marine management measures are both effective and efficient. Solid monitoring frameworks are the foundation of adaptive management, as they provide the necessary information to evaluate performance and the effectiveness of management actions. Marine protected areas (MPAs) - possibly set up in networks - constitute a key component in EB-MSM policies and practises and have been applied as a cornerstone in conservation of marine biodiversity, management of fish populations, development of coastal tourism, etc. Moreover, MPA experiences have provided methods and concepts (such as zoning) to a wider EB-MSM context. The assignment of values to biophysical features of the marine environment allows the direct assessment of related management choices and may assist EB-MSM.A range of monetary valuation techniques have been proposed to reduce attributes of goods and services to a single metric. However, in the marine environment such an approach is often over simplistic, and thus less reductive techniques may be necessary. Rather than producing a single metric, the results of non-monetary assessments guide policy allowing weight to be given as necessary to potential areas of conflict and consensus.Strategies to take into account climate change effects and geohazard risks in EB-MSM have been applied or proposed worldwide. EB-MSM regimes must be alert to such risks and flexible to account for changes. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,807-820,,11,54,,Ocean Coast.

Few fisheries have the legal mandate for ecosystem-based management or to apply precautionary management when information is lacking, so fishermen have little incentive to demand improved information. The California Marine Life Management Act of 1998 requires the maintenance of ecosystem health and diversity in California's complex nearshore ecosystems. We present the key elements, the scientific rationale, and an implementation plan for the transition from information-poor, precautionary management to information-rich, spatially explicit ecosystem-based management in the California near-shore finfish fishery. These elements are included in a fishery management plan adopted by the state in 2002. Marine reserves serve as reference points in repeated-measures before-after control-impact experimental design, in addition to their more familiar conservation benefits. The complexity of scientific monitoring, the statistical power of the monitoring design, and the benefits to consumptive and nonconsumptive uses and values all increase from information-poor to information-rich management.

The European white elm, along with other elm species, is important as part of the traditional landscape and as a tree with multiple uses. In Germany, a total of more than 825 white elm populations numbering approximately 138,000 trees have been inventoried. Most of the largest populations are closely associated with the main rivers and concentrated mainly in the northeast of the country. However, to date there has been a lack of knowledge on the genetic structure and diversity of European white elm populations in Bavaria (southern Germany). The aim of this study was to assess genetic structure and diversity and to select putative seed stands and gene conservation units (GCU) for European white elm. Nuclear microsatellite loci (nSSR) were first selected for successful elm species discrimination. Next, in order to represent the distribution range of European white elms in Bavaria, 18 populations were selected and sampled for genetic analysis with 12 variable nSSR loci. AMOVA revealed that genetic variation is mainly distributed within populations (89%), while only 11% occurred between them (FST = 0.11). Bayesian clustering indicated the highest probability for the presence of four genetic clusters (Delta K = 19.954 at K4) within the dataset. However, spatial genetic structure indicates a close link to the two main river basins in Bavaria (Main River basin and the Danube River basin). Thus, our results fill existing gaps in sustainable use and conservation of rare and scattered tree species by providing insights into genetic variation and genetic structure of the species and allow us to better plan genetic conservation measures and to select GCU and seed stands in Bavaria. We, therefore, suggest that in the future all putative seed stands or gene conservation units should be assessed based on several aspects, one of them being the level of genetic diversity, before final selection and use as a source of forest reproductive material (FRM). © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,145-160,,1,142,,Eur.

This study investigated mortality rates for female California spiny lobster (Panulirus interruptus) at multiple sites inside and outside of three marine reserves at the Santa Barbara Channel Islands, California, USA. Mean total mortality (Z) of female lobsters was lower at sites inside reserves (Z = 0.22 [± 0.05 SE]) than at sites outside reserves (Z = 0.59 [± 0.02 SE]). Mean mortality at all sites inside reserves, and among sites near reserve centres (where Z = 0.17 [± 0.05 SE]), was similar to estimates of natural mortality for other temperate spiny lobster species. Among sites inside reserves, there was a positive relationship between mortality and proximity to reserve borders, but this relationship was absent among sites outside reserves. Mortality estimates were much more variable among sites inside reserves than at sites in fished areas. This variation is probably due to differential emigration rates from the three reserves, as well as site-specific ecological factors that influence population structure, demonstrating the importance of spatially explicit reserve sampling and understanding how ecological heterogeneity influences fisheries models. © Copyright Foundation for Environmental Conservation 2012.",,215-224,,3,39,,Environ.

These events consist of the emergence of large swarms of the predatory seastar that feed on reef-building corals, often leading to widespread devastation of coral populations. While cyclic occurrences of such outbreaks are reported from many tropical reefs throughout the Indo-Pacific, their causes are hotly debated, and the spatio-temporal dynamics of the outbreaks and impacts to reef communities remain unclear. Based on observations of a recent event around the island of Moorea, French Polynesia, we show that Acanthaster outbreaks are methodic, slow-paced, and diffusive biological disturbances. Acanthaster outbreaks on insular reef systems like Moorea's appear to originate from restricted areas confined to the ocean-exposed base of reefs. Elevated Acanthaster densities then progressively spread to adjacent and shallower locations by migrations of seastars in aggregative waves that eventually affect the entire reef system. The directional migration across reefs appears to be a search for prey as reef portions affected by dense seastar aggregations are rapidly depleted of living corals and subsequently left behind. Coral decline on impacted reefs occurs by the sequential consumption of species in the order of Acanthaster feeding preferences. Acanthaster outbreaks thus result in predictable alteration of the coral community structure. The outbreak we report here is among the most intense and devastating ever reported. Using a hierarchical, multi-scale approach, we also show how sessile benthic communities and resident coral-feeding fish assemblages were subsequently affected by the decline of corals. By elucidating the processes involved in an Acanthaster outbreak, our study contributes to comprehending this widespread disturbance and should thus benefit targeted management actions for coral reef ecosystems.",,,,10,7,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000309831500153,,,,,,,ASSEMBLAGES; BEHAVIOR; DEGRADATION; DISTURBANCE; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; INVERTEBRATES; LIZARD ISLAND; PATTERNS; RECOVERY; RESILIENCE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

CWCRs are often hotspots of biodiversity and ecosystem services and are in the frontline of exposure to multiple human pressures and climate change. Almost nothing is known about how large-scale atmospheric variability affects the structure of CWCRs’ communities over ecological timescales, and this hinders their efficient conservation. This knowledge gap is especially evident for species-rich macrofauna, a key component for ecosystem functioning. Location: The Mingulay Reef Complex, a protected biogenic ecosystem in the northeast Atlantic (120–190 m). Methods: A unique time series (2003–2011) at 79 stations was used to make the first assessment of interannual changes in CWCRs’ macrofaunal biodiversity, biogeography and functional traits. We quantified the impacts of interannual changes in North Atlantic Oscillation Index (NAOI)—the major mode of atmospheric variability in the North Atlantic, bottom temperature and salinity alongside static variables of seafloor terrain and hydrography. Results: Environmental gradients explained a significant amount of community composition ((Formula presented.) = 26.7%, p <.01) with interannual changes in bottom temperature, salinity and NAOI explaining nearly twice as much variability than changes in terrain or hydrography. We observed significant differences in community composition, diversity and functional traits but not in species richness across interannual variability in bottom temperature. In warmer years, the biogeographic composition shifted more towards a temperate and subtropical affinity. Main Conclusions: Our findings highlight the necessity for thorough investigations of faunal communities in CWCRs as they may be sensitive to interannual changes in regional oceanography. Considering the scientific consensus on the substantial warming of North Atlantic by 2100, we recommend the establishment of programmes for the monitoring of CWCRs. This will support an advanced understanding of CWCRs’ environmental status over time and will serve their conservation for the future. © 2021 The Authors.

For example, planners might design a linkage between two conserved areas, or the parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity might set targets for a well-connected system of protected areas for each nation. Here we describe 35 metrics that can quantify connectivity of focal patches or of networks and monitor changes over time in an ecoscape (landscape or seascape). The connectivity metrics fall into four categories: (1) structural connectivity metrics derived from binary maps and species-nonspecific spatial functions, (2) connectivity metrics derived from binary maps and species-specific population sizes and dispersal functions (3) metrics derived from multi-state maps and species responses to those states, and (4) metrics of functional connectivity reflecting observed flow of organisms or genes. We provide a decision tree to select which of these metrics are most appropriate for a given conservation goal and broad ecoscape context. Functional connectivity metrics may be preferred if conservation is focused on particular species or if data are available to parameterize models for a suite of species that represent needs of the focal biota. However, with climate change, ecoscapes need to facilitate movements of all species that need to adapt by shifting their ranges.

The long-term effectiveness of these static conservation measures will depend on how well they represent current and future ocean changes. Here, we use the Climate Risk Index for Biodiversity to assess the vulnerability representation of marine ecosystems within the Canadian marine conservation network (CMCN) under two divergent emissions scenarios. We found that MPAs best represent climate vulnerability in Atlantic Canada (85% representativity overall, and 93% in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence under low emissions), followed by the Pacific (78%) and Arctic (63%; lowest in the Eastern Arctic (41% under high emissions) regions). Notably, MPAs with lower climate vulnerability are proportionally overrepresented in the CMCN. Broad-scale geographic targets employed in the Scotian Shelf-Bay of Fundy network planning process achieve over 90% representativity of climate vulnerabilities, underscoring the importance of ensuring habitat representativity and geographic distribution in conservation planning to enhance climate resilience, even if not explicitly prioritized. Moving towards Canada’s target to protect 30% of its waters by 2030, prioritizing representativity and designation of MPAs in currently underrepresented climate-vulnerable regions may be crucial to enhancing the resilience of the CMCN amidst an ever-changing climate. © 2024 Authors Keen, Boyce, and The Crown.",,Jan-15,,1,9,,Facet.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Canadian Science Publishing,,,,climate change vulnerability; climate resilience; marine conservation network; marine conservation planning; marine protected areas; representativity,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

As countries adopt a 30% target for protection of land and sea under the Global Biodiversity Framework of the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity, a critical question emerging is, which 30%? A risk-based answer to this question is that the 30% that returns the greatest reductions in risks of species extinction and ecosystem collapse should be protected. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List protocols provide practical methods for assessing these risks. All species, including humans, depend on the integrity of ecosystems for their well-being and survival. Africa is strategically important for ecosystem management due to convergence of high ecosystem diversity, intense pressures, and high levels of human dependency on nature. We reviewed the outcomes (e.g., applications of ecosystem red-list assessments to protected-area design, conservation planning, and management) of a symposium at the inaugural African Protected Areas Congress convened to discuss roles of the IUCN Red List of Ecosystems in the design and management of PCAs. Recent progress was made in ecosystem assessment, with 920 ecosystem types assessed against the IUCN Red List criteria across 21 countries. Although these ecosystems spanned a diversity of environments across the continent, the greatest thematic gaps were for freshwater, marine, and subterranean realms, and large geographic gaps existed in North Africa and parts of West and East Africa. Assessment projects were implemented by a diverse community of government agencies, nongovernmental organizations, and researchers. The assessments have influenced policy and management by informing extensions to and management of formal protected area networks supporting decision-making for sustainable development, and informing ecosystem conservation and threat abatement within boundaries of PCAs and in surrounding landscapes and seascapes. We recommend further integration of risk assessments in environmental policy and enhanced investment in ecosystem red-list assessment to fill current gaps. © 2023 The Authors.

Although most marine sanctuaries have a positive influence on biotic communities, not all sanctuaries are meeting their conservation objectives. Amidst possible explanations (e.g., size, age and isolation), insufficient enforcement is often speculated to be a key driver of marine sanctuary underperformance. Despite this, there are few studies directly linking quantitative enforcement data to changes in biotic communities within marine sanctuaries. Here, we used an asymmetrical-BACI experimental design from 2006-2012 to test whether new enforcement initiatives enhanced abundances of target fishes and threatened species in an existing large sub-tropical marine sanctuary relative to areas open to fishing. Implementation of the new enforcement initiatives in 2010 was associated with a 201% increase in annual fine rate and a significant increase in target fish and elasmobranch abundance, as well as sightings of a critically-endangered shark, in the marine sanctuary relative to areas open to fishing. Overall, these results demonstrate that strengthening enforcement can have a rapid positive influence on target fish and perhaps threatened species in a subtropical marine sanctuary. From this, we contend that increased enforcement guided by risk-based compliance planning and operations may be a useful first step for improving underperforming marine sanctuaries. © 2015 The Authors.",,503-510,,,3,,Glob.

However, policies to mitigate anthropogenic impacts can also alter food web structure and interactions, regardless of whether the regulations are aimed at single or multiple species, with possible unexpected consequences for the ecosystems and their associated services. Complex community response to management interventions have been highlighted in the Caribbean, where, contrary to predictions from linear food chain models, a reduction in ishing intensity through the establishment of a marine reserve has led to greater biomass of herbivorous ish inside the reserve, despite an increased abundance of large predatory piscivores. This positive multi-trophic response, where both predators and prey benefit from protection, highlights the need to take an integrated approach that considers how numerous factors control species coexistence in both fished and unfished systems. In order to understand these complex relationships, we developed a general model to examine the trade-offs between ishing pressure and trophic control on reef ish communities, including an exploration of top-down and bottom-up effects. We then validated the general model predictions by parameterizing the model for a reef system in the Bahamas in order to tease apart the wide range of species responses to reserves in the Caribbean. Combining the development of general theory and site-speciic models parameterized with ield data reveals the underlying driving forces in these communities and enables us to make better predictions about possible population and community responses to different management schemes. © 2010 by the Ecological Society of America.",,1979-1992,,7,20,,Ecol.

The recovery plan was further revised and implemented between 2001 and 2005. However, the recovery plan has not provided the expected benefit, and the stock is still thought to be below the safe limit of Blim = 6000 t. We use stochastic simulations to investigate possible stock trajectories over a seven-year period from 1999 to 2005 under various scenarios of fishing mortality. Comparing the results of simulations with reality, it is clear that more drastic action is required if the stock is to recover in the medium term.

To understand the implications of spatial management fully, there need to be clear ecological, social and economic management objectives and a system in place allowing measurement of the performance of spatial management in relation to these objectives. Although fisheries management is becoming increasingly spatially explicit, it lags developments in marine conservation, in which marine protected areas (MPAs) have been used extensively. This chapter reviews monitoring for achievement of ecological objectives of spatial management of marine systems and associated performance measures in a range of countries where long-term monitoring of MPAs has been established. The review summarizes spatial management objectives, performance measures, monitoring methodology and primary outcomes and provides a summary of the metrics (variables) and performance measures used worldwide. Reviewed studies aimed to monitor within-reserve effects (e.g., biomass accumulation) and outside-reserve effects (e.g., export of accumulated biomass or propagules across the reserve boundary, i.e., spillover). The review highlights that the objectives of spatial management were often very general and poorly defined. Objectives need to be framed in a way that management performance can be assessed through monitoring. A suite of appropriate metrics is available for this monitoring; however, planning for performance assessment must begin at the time of initial planning for the spatial management, rather than relying on ad hoc studies once the management regime is in place. In framing management objectives, many agencies have considered a relatively small spatial scale, associated with individual MPAs and adjacent areas. In the future, management objectives should be set at a regional scale so that the overall performance of the system can be determined, including assessing how the cessation of certain activities within MPAs displaces pressures on the environment. There needs to be a strong commitment to continued performance assessment; for example, many of the effects of MPAs are not evident for at least a decade. Investment in spatial management is likely to increase considerably in the coming years, broadening in scope from the current concentration on MPA management, particularly in response to the increasing focus on spatially explicit fisheries management and the ecological effects of fishing, and on environmental perturbations such as pollution and climate change. Performance measures for this type of monitoring need to be based as much as possible on sound ecological knowledge of responses to perturbations, rather than the arbitrary setting of limits with little ecological basis. © 2012 by R.N.

Declines of the species are attributed to low reproductive rates coupled with multiple anthropogenic threats, including secondary poisoning, and persecution. Little is known about connectivity and population structure of SGH populations in Africa, south of the equator. Knowledge of population differentiation is needed to ensure that targeted conservation management plans can be implemented to slow population declines and ensure survival of the species. To inform a long-term conservation strategy, we investigated the broad-scale population structure of Southern Ground-hornbill across their sub-equatorial range. Our study based on 16 microsatellite loci identified moderate variation (average of 5.889 alleles per locus and a mean observed heterozygosity of 0.546) similar to other long-lived avian species. In contrast, mitochondrial DNA sequences analysis identified low diversity (Hd = 0.3313, ? = 0.0015). A Bayesian assignment approach, principal component analysis, analysis of molecular variance and phylogenetic analysis identified weak to moderate population structuring across long distances and mitochondrial data showed a shallow phylogeny. Restriction to long-distance dispersal was detected that could not be attributed to isolation by distance, suggesting that other factors, such as their dispersal biology, are shaping the observed genetic differentiation. Although our study does not support the designation of populations as independent conservation units, we advocate that population management should continue to follow the Precautionary Principle (mixing founders from the same range state, rather than allowing mixing of founders from the extremes of the range) until there is scientific certainty. Following further research, if no independent conservation units are detected, then the global captive population can contribute to reintroductions across the range. In the wild, populations at the edge of the species range may need additional management strategies and gene flow should be promoted between neighbouring populations. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,52,,Glob.

However, this theory assumes perfect spatial information about the locations of biodiversity features (e.g., species distributions). In practice, planners represent well-known taxa and other biodiversity ""surrogates"" in protected area systems, hoping that unmapped species will also be conserved. However, empirical research finds that surrogates predict species presence imperfectly, and sometimes rather poorly, at scales relevant to planning, and existing theory provides no further guidance. We developed new theory, explicitly incorporating aspects of spatial scale, for the representation problem when the locations of species distributions are unknown. Using probability theory and simulated and real species distributions, we found that the probability of adequately representing an unmapped species in a protected area system will be low unless the total fraction of the region being protected is larger than the species representation target. Furthermore, successful conservation depended critically on the relative sizes of the species distribution and of the individual protected areas; fewer, larger protected areas allowed the entire species distribution to fall into an unprotected gap. This scale-dependence varied with the configuration of the protected area system, with the conservation objective most likely to be attained if the individual protected areas were hyperdispersed (evenly spaced across the planning region). Using these results, we developed three design principles for representing unmapped species in protected areas: (1) The fraction of the region placed in protected areas should be substantially larger than the species-level representation target; (2) Individual protected areas must be at least one to two orders of magnitude smaller than the unmapped species' distribution; and (3) Protected areas should be evenly dispersed over geographic space. We also performed preliminary investigations of the effects of surrogates and socio-economic cost data on the probability of adequately representing unmapped species, finding that the primary effect of surrogates may simply be to promote hyperdispersion of protected areas across the planning region, and that seeking to minimize opportunity costs gives poorer conservation results than random protected area placement.",,,,11,6,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000367310600028,,,,,,,ACCURACY; BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION; biodiversity surrogates; conservation planning; DISTRIBUTION MODELS; DIVERSITY; ECONOMIC-BENEFITS; EVOLUTIONARY PROCESSES; ISLAND BIOGEOGRAPHY; MARINE RESERVES; PERSISTENCE; protected area design; reserve configuration; spatial sampling; species distributions; unmapped species; VIABILITY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Current species distribution ranges show that the genus is highly diverse in the seasonally wet forests along the Nigeria-Cameroon border, including the Korup National Park (KNP). In this paper we examine the diversity and abundance of Cola in KNP compared to other forests for which comparable data are available. We also describe two novelties in the genus. Methods – We used inventory data from a 50-ha permanent plot in southern KNP where all Cola trees and saplings down to 1 cm in diameter were tagged, mapped and identified. Additional collections of the genus came from the 11 km trail leading to the plot. Classic herbarium techniques and field observations were used for the morphological identification and description of specimens at MO and YA and from our personal collections. Cola species richness and abundance was estimated from the plot data and compared to other African forest sites for which comparable data are available. The evaluation of the conservation status of the two new species described in this paper followed the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria. Key results – Twenty-five species of Cola were identified in the southern part of the KNP, including four undescribed species, raising the total number of Cola species in Cameroon to 46. The abundance of the genus in KNP was three orders of magnitude higher than in the Rabi forest in southwestern Gabon or in the Ituri forest in eastern D.R. Congo. This high species richness and abundance suggests that KNP is part of the center of diversity of the genus. Two new species, Cola zemagoana Kenfack & D.W.Thomas and C. mamboana Kenfack & Sainge are described and illustrated. Both species are only known from the lowland rainforest of southwestern Cameroon. Cola zemagoana is narrow endemic of southern KNP and its conservation status is assessed as Endangered. Cola mamboana is confined to the lowland forests of southwestern Cameroon, is locally very abundant in protected areas and is also assigned the conservation status Endangered. © 2018 Meise Botanic Garden and Royal Botanical Society of Belgium.

Despite considerable investment of resources into conservation over the last three decades, biodiversity is dwindling and protected area systems remain inadequate. This lack of success is caused by important differences in cultural, economic, landownership, and social factors in developing Pacific Island countries, compared to developed nations that often fund conservation programs and plans. Despite the obvious need for capacity building and information exchange among stakeholders, little collaboration and development has eventuated. A coordinated and integrated approach, focusing conservation resources on national priorities, is essential to achieve efficient conservation. This will need to include active involvement of landowners, a good sociocultural understanding of target communities, improved collaboration between the various stakeholders, provision of sustainable alternative economic activities, and a commitment to long funding cycles for projects. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.",,256-265,,4,5,,Conserv.

Although they have contributed to an increase in fish abundance and alleviated the impacts of fishing on marine ecosystems, the impacts of fishing and of protected areas in freshwater ecosystems are less well known. We compared fishing productivity and fish assemblage descriptors of two distinct protected areas designated for sustainable use of natural resources and an unprotected area in the Tapajós River, in the Brazilian Amazon. Two hypotheses were tested: (1) fishers from protected areas have higher catch per unit effort than those from unprotected areas; and (2) fish assemblages in protected areas have higher biomass, abundance, presence of target species, species richness, fish size and mean trophic level than those in unprotected areas. A total of 2,013 fish landings were recorded and two surveys were undertaken to sample fishes. Eleven environmental parameters were quantified to distinguish between effects of environmental heterogeneity and protected areas. The catch per unit effort of fishers was higher within protected areas than in unprotected areas, suggesting that protected areas reduce the levels of fishing pressure and increase fishing productivity. However, the fish assemblage descriptors were correlated more with environmental variables than with protected areas, indicating a relatively weak effect of protected areas on fish communities in lakes. The results highlight the importance of considering the influence of environmental heterogeneity in fish conservation programmes, and the positive effect of protected areas on fishing productivity in freshwater environments. © Copyright 2016 Fauna & Flora International.",,268-279,,2,51,,ORYX,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Cambridge University Press,,,,ABUNDANCE; Amazonia; assembly rule; BENEFITS; Brazil; catch per unit effort; COMMUNITIES; community dynamics; CONSERVATION; conservation management; Conservation units; ENVIRONMENTAL GRADIENTS; environmental impact; environmental impacts; fish; fish conservation; fisheries management; fishery management; fishery production; FLOODPLAIN LAKES; heterogeneity; LOWER AMAZON; MANAGEMENT; Pisces; protected area; RESERVES; resource use; river water; small-scale fisheries; SMALL-SCALE FISHERIES; spatial heterogeneity; species conservation; Tapajos River; trophic level; tropical environment,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Focusing on coastal grasslands, we first identified indicators discriminating human-induced short grasslands (i.e. maintained short by intensive trampling) from natural short grasslands (i.e. maintained by environmental constraints): the presence of lichens and succulent or woody species, which are known to be highly sensitive to trampling, as well as a shallow soil were good indicators of natural short grasslands. Recreational activities affected the majority of plots containing rare species, but one third of rare species (according to their habitat preference) appeared currently not threatened by recreational activities. The other rare species were found in grasslands with low trampling intensity and were not found in grasslands with greater trampling intensity. One lichen species (Teloshistes flavicans) was not affected by trampling intensity, while two plants species (Scilla verna and Ophioglossum lusitanicum) showed higher abundances when trampling was low to medium. When it Occurs in natural short grasslands, tourist trampling reduced drastically plant species richness. However, when considering maritime high grasslands, we observed that species richness was higher under low trampling vs. no trampling, but decreased at higher trampling intensity. At a landscape scale, the mean annual rate of path creation was about 1.6% and tourist trampling has already completely destroyed 3.5 ha of natural coastal vegetation. Trampling of maritime-high grassland has also created 31 ha of short grasslands, which represent 50.8% of the whole short grassland habitat of the island. Moreover trampling affected respectively, 41% and 15% of natural short grasslands and maritime-high grasslands. One of the main Suggestions for managers to minimise trampling impacts should be to protect areas of rocky soil covered by short grassland that are still non-trampled and not impacted. Fortunately, this appears compatible with a relatively free access of visitors to coastal areas, as tourists can be redirected towards maritime-high grasslands, all habitat which is less impacted by tourism in terms of affected surface, soil cover, loss of species, or presence of rare species host.

Practically, this pursuit might involve protecting a representative sample of the current biotic diversity (where diversity can have a variety of different meanings as in Vane?Wright et al. 1991), safeguarding species with traits that may be correlated with susceptibility to extinction (see International Council for Bird Preservation 1992), or protecting those species that are currently categorized as under short?term threat of extinction. Priority areas for conservation may vary, however, depending on which of these three approaches is taken. We investigated the designation of priority areas using these different approaches for Afrotropical antelope. Sites were selected on the basis of (1) biotic diversity—simple species richness and taxonomic diversity; (2) uniqueness of the fauna relative to other sites—how geographically restricted the component species were; and (3) degree of endangerment of the fauna. When insufficient sites to represent all the species could be selected, there was little agreement between the priority sites selected using the different methods. Sites selected by each approach were also generally poor at representing the diversity components ranked highly by other approaches. Also, many of the species were represented in only one site in the selected network, which on its own probably does not represent a viable population for the species. Therefore, it is important that the precise aims and consequences of any selection procedure be understood. A combination of different approaches, emphasizing different aspects of biodiversity and implemented sequentially, may be the best compromise for preserving a full range of biotic diversity. Copyright © 1995, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved; Uno de los principales objetivos de la conservación hoy en dia es el mantenimiento de la biodiversidad. En la práctica, esto puede involucrar la protección de una muestra representativa de la diversidad biótica actual (donde diversidad puede tener significados diversos, como por ejemplo Vane?Wright et al. 1991), la salvaguarda de especies con características que podrían estar correlacionadas con la susceptibilidad a la extinción (como por ejemplo International Council for Bird Preservation) o la protección de aquellas especies que en la actualidad se encuentran categorizadas como amenazadas de extinción a corto plazo. Sin embargo las áreas de prioridad para la conservación podrían variar dependiendo de cual de estas tres estrategias es la seguida. En el presente estudio se investigó la designación de áreas prioritarias basada en el uso de estas distintas estrategias para el caso del antílope Afrotropical. Los sitios fueron seleccionados en base a (1) la diversidad biológica (riqueza de especies y diversidad taxonómica); (2) la singularidad de la fauna en relación con otros sitios (es decir, cuan restricta geográficamente estaban las especies componentes) y (3) el grado en que la fauna esta amenazada. Cuando el número de sitios seleccionados era insuficiente para representar toda las especies, había poco acuerdo entre los sitios seleccionados usando los distintos métodos. Los sitios seleccionados por cada estrategia también fueron en general inadecuados para representar los componentes de la diversidad clasificados como prioritarios por las otras estrategias. Además, muchas de las especies estuvieron representadas en solo un sitio de la red seleccionada, lo cual probablemente por si solo no representa una población viable para la especie. Por lo tanto, para cualquier procedimiento de selección, es importante que los objetivos y consecuencias sean comprendidos. Una combinación de distintas estrategias, que enfatizan distintos aspectos de la biodiversidad, implementadas secuencialmente sería el mejor compromiso para preservar el rango total de la diversidad biológica.",,324-334,,2,9,,Conserv.

Critics argue that many targeted species are too mobile to benefit from area protection and that no-take areas are only appropriate for resident species. The degree of protection does not depend on the size of the no-take area but rather on the time fish reside inside its boundaries during key life-history events (i.e., spawning) and during periods of peak fishing activity. We evaluated the potential of a small no-take marine protected area (MPA) inside a coastal embayment as a harvest refuge for a mobile, possibly migratory, long-lived fish species. We used acoustic telemetry to track movements of 30 transmitter-tagged white stumpnose (Rhabdosargus globiceps) across and on both sides of the boundary of a small (34 km 2) no-take area over a full year. Being landlocked on 3 sides, the location of the MPA inside the lagoon made it practical to detect all boundary crossings and to calculate the time individual fish used the MPA. We detected frequent movements across the boundary, with strong seasonal and individual variations. There were significant differences in MPA use patterns between fish from different release areas. The time spent in the MPA by individual fish during summer (mean 50%; max 98%) was out of proportion with the size of that area (4% of total habitat). Summer coincided with peak recreational fishing activity and with the spawning season of this species. The small MPA provided a refuge for a part of the spawning stock of white stumpnose. Our findings suggest that if strategically placed, a small no-take area can be effective in protecting mobile species and that models of spillover from no-take areas should account for seasonal and individual variation in area use and the spatiotemporal distribution of fish and fishers. © 2008 Society for Conservation Biology.",,653-661,,3,23,,Conserv.

Restoration of 2.0 Mha degraded peatlands has been conducted since 2016. This study aims to analyze spatiotemporal variations of soil moisture content and groundwater level in this site from 2015 to 2018. The soil moisture was estimated using a multiple regression analysis method based on the Sentinel-1A and the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecast dataset. The groundwater level model was calculated by using linear regression between the estimated soil moisture and water level observed from field measurements. A minimum moisture content of ~0.78 m3m-3 and a minimum groundwater depth of ~0.50 m below the peat surface were estimated to cause smoldering combustion. A sharp decline in the water table depth (around 1.53 m) led to a decrease in moisture content in October 2015. This month, peat fires severely burned both cultivation and protected areas having dense drainage canals and near rivers. Although there was an increasing trend in the groundwater level and moisture content in 2016, between 2017 to 2018 the water table declined to a depth of ~0.7 m with a corresponding moisture content of ~0.25 m3m-3. Such decline may have led to a few peat fires which occurred in the dry season of both 2017 and 2018.

Sustainable tourism, ecotourism or green tourism has been the latest jargon used by the industry to attract tourists to be more sustainable and enjoy their holiday in nature. If sustainable development refers to meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs, sustainable tourism would denote tourism which respect and conserve as well as not to harm biodiversity and socio-cultural balance. The greatest task to conserve the remaining biodiversity however may come down to some developing countries. They are now confronted with the real challenges to create sustainable community while coping with their rapid economic growth. Malaysia for instance has gazetted several national parks but those areas are exposed to illegal loggings and deforestation which will have great impact on its biodiversity. The remaining forests in Malaysia should be considered as a protected area as it plays a vital role in achieving specific conservation objectives. They are the sources of water supply, forest produce for human and animals as well as for recreational purposes and sustainable tourism activities. For that matter, under the National Physical Plan (NPP) of 2006, the protected areas shall include all gazetted national and state parks, wildlife reserve or sanctuaries, marine parks, protected forests and other areas designated for statutory protection. It is the intention of this paper to highlight the legislations designed for conservation, management and planning of Taman Negara, the premier national park of Malaysia. The study concludes that the management and planning activities in the national park must be integrated through effective legal framework in order to ensure a proper and systematic usage of the biodiversity and for more successful sustainable tourism activities. © 2013, Medwell Journals.",,393-397,,8,8,,Res.

The core objective of this book is to provide cross-sectoral information on the different aspects of the terrestrial environment and ecosystems of Kuwait. The book will be considered as a ready source of information for those seeking information on the terrestrial environment and ecosystems, assessment and restoration, as well as sustainable uses and management. In spite of Kuwait’s hyper-arid environment, it is rich in natural resources including a wide range of native plants, animal species, different habitats, protected areas, diversified soils and water and oil resources. While the desert of Kuwait constitutes various features, such as sand sheet, sand dunes, nebkhas, inland and coastal sabkhas, rock outcrop, wadis and farming areas, it is rich in flora and fauna (native plants, mammals, birds, reptiles, etc.). Due to changing climate, deserts of Kuwait as well as other countries are under severe threat of degradation and the degradation may be irreversible. To realize these impacts, an effort is being made to provide a ready source of information to highlight the potential threats to the terrestrial ecosystems and formulate adaptation and mitigation strategies for long-term ecosystems services in Kuwait as well as other countries located in a desert environment, such as Gulf Cooperation Council Countries, Africa and countries in the Arab region. The book includes sixteen chapters covering multidiscipline subjects (such as natural resources, climate and climate change, geographical features, terrestrial habitats, ecosystems and threats, water and soil resources, agriculture, food security, water-energy-food-climate nexus, green-grey-blue water footprints of various crops, etc.).

The globally vulnerable Dugong dugon has a wide distribution but is found in large numbers mainly in Australia and the Arabian Gulf. Though Australian dugong populations are well studied, much less is known of the dugongs in the Arabian Gulf. The spatial and temporal persistence of dugongs around Bahrain, with a focus on large dugong groups (>50 dugongs), was determined using an occupancy modelling framework supported by historical records, structured interviews, citizen science network reports, and small-scale boat and unmanned aerial vehicle surveys. Historical records and current distributional studies confirmed that large dugong groups have been reliably sighted around Hawar Island (Bahrain) since at least 1986, forming large, clumped groups that persist almost year round. The largest recorded so far in the world, these fluid groups (maximum of ~700 dugongs) account for ~60% of the dugongs found in Bahrain and ~12% of all dugongs in the Arabian Gulf. The delineated occupancy core area of large dugong groups (~145 km2) straddles the Bahrain–Qatar border, reflecting the transboundary nature of these groups. Careful management of human-induced stressors (in particular, fishing, boating, and coastal development) combined with regular monitoring of Hawar Island's large dugong groups and their seagrass habitat is critical to safeguard this globally important population. The effectiveness of any conservation management is predicated on strengthening cooperation among all range states in the Arabian Gulf. A key recommendation of this study is to establish a regional network of marine protected areas encompassing core aggregation sites for dugongs, particularly the Hawar Islands in Bahrain, the north-western waters of Qatar, Marawah Island in the United Arab Emirates in addition to the shallow waters between Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and United Arab Emirates. © 2023 The Authors.

Study Design: Cross sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Mohi-Ud-Din Islamic Medical College Mirpur Azad Kashmir and HITEC-IMS Taxila, from Jan 2017 to Jan 2019. Methodology: Total 25 cases with adipocere formation were included in this study. The cause of death, time since death, death circumstances, surrounding environment from where the body was recovered and demographic profile of the deceased were considered, while cases of septicemic deaths were excluded from the study. The adipocere was confirmed by forensic medicine consultants by its soft, moist and greasy consistency, grayish white appearance and ammoniacal smell. Results: Most of the cases recovered during months of March to June from open and closed areas, while 3 cases were recovered from water source or river banks. The time duration of recovery from time of death was from 5 days to 15 days 3h. The adipocere formation showed a high odds ratio 2.0-(95%-CI-0.115-3.482) and OR-1.5-(95%-CI-.098-2.306) for bodies recovered from water and open areas respectively. The adipocere formation in hot and rainy season showed OR-3.3-(95%-CI.190-4.199) and OR-2.4-(95%-CI.122-3.642) respectively. The adipocere formation occurred more during days 1-5 with an OR-1.9-(95%-CI.221-1.625).

One way to manage these threats is through Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), which safeguard valuable ecosystems within their confines. Despite the ecological and socio-economic benefits they provide (Whittingham et al. 2003), the management of MPAs is often severely constrained by both a lack of funding and a poor relationship with communities living around (or within) them. Although many efforts aimed at coral reef management and conservation within MPAs in Vietnam have been initiated and implemented, policymakers repeatedly face questions such as how do local residents feel they have been affected by the establishment of the MPA? Will active management of an MPA provide greater net economic benefits in the long term? How can these benefits be ‘captured’, both to fund MPA management and provide socio-economic stability for local communities?. Using the HonMun MPA as an example, this study explores the relationships between (1) the economic value of coral reefs, (2) coastal livelihoods, (3) coral reef degradation and (4) possible policy interventions in Vietnam. We estimated the economic value of coral reefs in the Hon Mun MPA through a focus on reef fisheries and reef-related tourism, as well as non-use values provided by reef ecosystems. Livelihood aspects of reef use were investigated by engaging with different reef stakeholders. We found out how villagers perceived changes in both quality of life and resources, and uncovered their views on resource impacts on human activities. To derive a decision-making framework for the MPA management options, we analysed the costs and benefits of a ‘with MPA management’ scenario and a ‘without MPA management’ scenario. We also established linkages between economic values of coral reefs, financial sustainability and local socioeconomic issues. © Cambridge University Press 2013.",,134-154,,,,,,,,,,,Cambridge University Press,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Nature's Wealth: The Economics of Ecosystem Services and Poverty DOI: 10.1017/CBO9781139225311.008,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Due to a wide range of variation in latitude (23°N to 37°N) and altitude (sea level in south to 8611 m in north), the flora and fauna are heterogeneous. Four phytogeographic regions are recognized in the country. Major parts of arid and semi-arid regions fall in the Saharo-Sindian phytogeographic region, while the western and north-western mountainous regions belong to the Irano-Turanian region, which harbors most of the plant diversity of Pakistan. The Saharo-Sindian region comprises plains, plateaus, and mountain peaks up to 3000 m high. Besides this, its major part is traversed by the Indus River and its tributaries, which provide unique wetland habitats in the otherwise hot and inhospitable environment. Many of these wetlands are recognized as Ramsar sites and also vital for the livelihood of the local people. The delta supports the largest arid zone mangrove forest in the world. The Indus delta also bears quite rich flora and fauna. The sandy deserts in the eastern and western parts of the country are the major livestock rearing sites. The Saharo-Sindian region does not contain any major forest except the semi-natural riverine forest along the banks of the Indus River. The Irano-Turanian region is mostly mountainous and shows the highest endemism of plant species. Monitoring of biodiversity changes is almost non-existent. The in situ and ex situ conservation measures are less than sufficient, although there are many protected areas. In many cases these areas are not properly managed due to various reasons, and sometimes a conflict arises between conservation and economics. The burgeoning population of the country is the main factor responsible for biodiversity loss. The already scanty forests are under immense pressure due to illegal felling of trees for timber and fuelwood. The loss of natural habitats is very high due to conversion of land for agricultural purposes and human settlements. Most of the floral and faunal resources like medicinal plants, fishes, etc., suffer from unsustainable exploitation. The other causes of biodiversity loss include the damming of rivers, pollution, introduction of alien species, etc. In this state of affairs, effective biodiversity conservation is an uphill task. Despite Pakistan being party to the Convention on Biological Diversity, and the approval of the Biodiversity Action Plan by the Federal Cabinet in 1999, biodiversity conservation continues to be an outlandish idea in Pakistan. A better coordination between scientists, academia, and government functionaries, vigoros advocacy, and capacity building are needed to achieve this goal.",,277-291,,03-Apr,43,,Ann.

As such, understanding how ALAN and other natural stressors act in concert to shape the spatial distribution of biodiversity is a core goal in conservation ecology. Here, we aim at understanding how ALAN and climate interact with life history traits and courtship signalling systems to dictate the composition of firefly communities in a global biodiversity hotspot. Location: An extensive elevational gradient in the Atlantic rain forest (Brazil) currently known as the hottest hotspot of fireflies on Earth. Methods: We used multivariate species distribution models to understand how species traits and courtship signalling systems interact with climate and ALAN to determine species abundance within firefly communities. We also investigated how species-specific responses to climate and ALAN scale up to determine compositional changes in firefly communities along the elevational gradient. Results: We found that climate shapes communities by filtering species according to their body size and trophic position. ALAN dictates the dominant courtship signalling system within communities by affecting the abundance of species that use bioluminescence or a combination of bioluminescence and pheromones in courtship. We also found that associations between beta-diversity and ALAN were non-stationary, being higher in regions under low levels of light pollution. This suggests that even incipient increases in ALAN within protected areas can yield fast changes in the composition of firefly communities. Main Conclusions: Firefly responses to climate and ALAN are modulated by traits associated with different facets of their life histories. Given the alarming changes in both stressors predicted for the foreseeable future, our findings indicate that firefly communities are vulnerable to compositional changes even within protected areas. © 2022 The Authors.

Thus, this study aims to assess the impact of the integrated control measures, namely windbreaks and controlled grazing, on the restoration of land cover dynamics in six managed rangeland areas. Land cover changes were monitored using satellite data and the derived vegetation indices (the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and the soil-adjusted vegetation index (SAVI)) from Landsat 8 (OLI), both within and outside the protected areas. The findings reveal that the implemented protection measures lead to an increase in vegetation cover, diversity, and plant density. They play an important role in stabilizing the upper soil layer. The oldest protected areas, particularly those that are well-maintained with controlled seasonal grazing, experienced a reduction in sand movement. The reintroduction of grazing should, however, be controlled to prevent degradation risks. The results show strong correlations between vegetation cover and both calculated vegetation indices, (0.73 < R2 < 0.91), with more accurate estimating for the SAVI. The findings of this research can guide decision-makers for restoring degraded rangelands and planning effective control measures for wind erosion. © 2023 by the authors.",,,,19,15,,Sustainability,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,dryland; GIS; management; plant communities; vegetation index; wind erosion,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A total of 38 genera from 14 families of corals were identified. Massive Porites and massive-platy Physogyra were dominant in the coral assemblages cover almost 49% of the total live coral coverage. These corals have higher tolerance compared to other corals to withstand strong currents and high suspended sediment conditions. Reef sites in Payar Island were categorized as having 'poor' to 'fair' coral conditions with the percentages of live corals cover from 8.1% to 43.3%. The 'poor' average coral condition (15.7% ± 4.9) is most likely influenced by the impacts of sedimentation and uncontrolled tourism related activities.

Globally, 11.2% of the total forest area has been designated for the conservation of biological diversity (FAO 2005). A PA is defined as an area of land and/or sea especially dedicated to the protection of biological diversity, and of natural and associated cultural resources, and managed through legal or other effective means (IUCN 1994). Although PAs are designed for biodiversity conservation goals, they are also important to the livelihoods of local communities, particularly of indigenous people who depend on the resources available in the PAs for their survival (McNeely 1993; WCPA 2010). In Vietnam, PAs are strongly affected by nearby rural communities because the people's livelihoods often depend heavily on land and forest resources from PAs (Phuong and Dembner 1994; ICEM 2003). Driven by population pressure in the PA buffer zones, increasing demands for food, timber, and non-timber products have resulted in agricultural expansion into PAs (ICEM 2003). To control agricultural expansion into PAs and ensure sustainable uses of land in the buffer zones, there is a great need to locate agricultural production activities in suitable locations to avoid negative ecological consequences. PA managers are often requested to identify the spatial distribution of suitable areas for cropland in the buffer zone. One way to achieve this identification is to employ a land suitability assessment (LSA) tool. © 2012 Springer Japan.

Hence, by identifying the regions that will be most affected by climate change in the future, managers can implement more efficient and effective measures to protect them. In this study, we utilized six Luciobarbus species residing at the southernmost boundary of their global distribution as a representative species model. We aimed to evaluate the influence of climate change on the distribution of these key species to identify potential future climate refuges within the Tigris–Euphrates basin and use the richness mapping method to determine the most critical driver of their richness pattern for high-priority conservation. In the current study, using an ensemble approach, we modeled the potential impact of climate change on the distributions of six Luciobarbus species by the years 2061–2080 and 2081–2100 under two Shared Socio-economic Pathways (SSPs) of general circulation models (GCMs). We employed a generalized linear model (GLM) with a quasi-Poisson distribution to create a map depicting the richness of Luciobarbus fish species.Our projections indicate that suitable habitats will decline in both time series under climate change SSP126 and SSP585 scenarios, resulting in the loss of certain habitat patches in the Southwest of Iran, Syria and Iraq. The result of the species richness map shows the southern region of the Tigris–Euphrates basin has the highest number of species. Furthermore, temperature was the most critical predictor of Luciobarbus fish richness in the basin. Implementing significant strategies, such as identifying areas with the highest species richness and susceptibility to climate change, is essential to conserving and managing key species like Luciobarbus. Additionally, establishing protected areas in suitable landscapes and preserving critical habitat patches as future climate refuges are crucial. These measures will contribute significantly to the conservation and management of freshwater species. © 2025 The Authors",,,,,57,,Glob. Ecol.

Despite 196 countries committing to expand PA coverage, a lack of evidence on existing PA effectiveness and limited data on human-ecosystem interactions pose formidable challenges to implementation and prioritising conservation funding. Within this context, this paper aims to test a simple and user-friendly model, which is based on Bayesian Belief Networks, in evaluating the management effectiveness of Cu Lao Cham Marine Protected Area (CLC-MPA) in Vietnam. It focuses on assessing whether the MPA is effective in achieving its conservation objectives and if the target resources can endure the current pace of economic development. The study underscores the importance of prioritising eco-tourism and sustainable local economic models amid the intense forces of mass tourism development. It argues that tourism carrying capacity for CLC should be estimated at the outset of sustainable tourism development plan. Besides, there is a need for an integrated approach to MPA management to include legal provisions to address the impacts of tourism and pollution. Also, given the increasing pressure from incoming fishers, it is essential for increasing trans-provincial coordination for better enforcement of MPA regulations. © 2024 Institute of Physics Publishing.

Emerging in a context of increasing decentralisation, the two MPAs have strongly relied on economic incentives, notably funding from donors and NGOs, to encourage behaviour changes towards achieving conservation objectives. Since donor funding ended, economic incentives used in governing the two MPAs have shifted the focus to income generated from MPA user fees. Consequently, the increasing influence of market forces, through mass tourism and incoming fishing pressures, has led to vested interests between provincial/city governments with tourism operators/developers and between local and non-local fishers. This paper stresses that without interventions from the central government or even international actors, the current MPA governance framework and incentives are insufficient to address the growing conflicts between biodiversity conservation and economic development. To improve MPA governance, strengthening legal incentives and stimulating political will from the central government are of the utmost importance. Also, given that social inequity issues are undermining local acceptance and support for MPAs, it is essential to empower local communities in decision-making over their resources by using property rights and promoting small-scale community-based development, while ensuring that such rights and development adhere to MPA conservation objectives. Moreover, tourism operators/developers need to be involved in governing MPAs in such a way that could contribute towards sustainable resource use and social equity for local communities. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,127,,Mar.

Although the attention to improving the governance of MPAs as a priority for achieving effective MPAs has been escalated, debates concerning MPA governance are inspired mainly by the bottom-up governance approach and its focus on horizontal and vertical linkages as a means of resolving conflicts, with the assumption that the state should only take a passive role. As the debates on the best MPA governance model continue, the progress of spatially expanding the global MPA network remains slow and has created many paper parks. Through a coevolutionary governance lens, this paper aims to empirically examine the development of MPAs in Vietnam and reflect on the national realities of achieving global biodiversity targets. Our findings emphasise that governance frameworks adopted for Vietnamese MPAs are typically characterised by a significant decentralisation of responsibilities to province-/district-level governments but with a lack of conditions and accountability attached to such responsibilities and of related oversight from the central government. Consequences include rent-seeking and clientelism opportunities for local authorities, elite capture of MPA benefits, and diminishing trust and stewardship among local communities. Our study suggests that, in the face of increasing overfishing and corporate interests nurtured by the unholy alliances between the state, businesses and NGOs, effective and equitable MPAs critically rely on synergies among different governance approaches, which are case-specific, along with sufficient political will and oversight from the state. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,149,,Environ.

Some conservation models aim to balance the needs of people and wildlife, but the effectiveness of these models is rarely assessed. Using a case-study approach, we assessed the ecological performance of a pastoral area in northern Tanzania (Manyara Ranch) and established a long-term wildlife population monitoring program (carried out intermittently from 2003 to 2008 and regularly from 2011 to 2019) embedded in a distance sampling framework. By comparing density estimates of the road transect-based long-term monitoring to estimates derived from systematically distributed transects, we found that the bias associated with nonrandom placement of transects was nonsignificant. Overall, cattle and sheep and goat reached the greatest densities and several wildlife species occurred at densities similar (zebra, wildebeest, waterbuck, Kirk's dik-dik) or possibly even greater (giraffe, eland, lesser kudu, Grant's gazelle, Thomson's gazelle) than in adjacent national parks in the same ecosystem. Generalized linear mixed models suggested that most wildlife species (8 out of 14) reached greatest densities during the dry season, that wildlife population densities either remained constant or increased over the 17-year period, and that herbivorous livestock species remained constant, while domestic dog population decreased over time. Cross-species correlations did not provide evidence for interference competition between grazing or mixed livestock species and wildlife species but indicate possible negative relationships between domestic dog and warthog populations. Overall, wildlife and livestock populations in Manyara Ranch appear to coexist over the 17-year span. Most likely, this is facilitated by existing connectivity to adjacent protected areas, effective anti-poaching efforts, spatio-temporal grazing restrictions, favorable environmental conditions of the ranch, and spatial heterogeneity of surface water and habitats. This long-term case study illustrates the potential of rangelands to simultaneously support wildlife conservation and human livelihood goals if livestock grazing is restricted in space, time, and numbers. © 2020 The Authors.

We found the highest species richness in the national park and in the pastoral area and lowest species richness in the settled and farmed area. There was little evidence of seasonal changes in species diversity. Except for top-order carnivores, all functional feeding guilds were still represented in pastoral and settled areas. Although we did not find significant differences in body mass distributions and species' representation of feeding guilds between the study sites, there was a trend that omnivores, mesopredators and top-order carnivores tended to occur at lower species richness in agricultural areas than in the pastoral and fully protected areas. These results indicate that areas used for livestock keeping can maintain high wildlife species richness and that direct and indirect effects of agricultural and settlement expansions are the main drivers of species richness loss in the Tarangire-Manyara ecosystem and possibly other African savannah ecosystems.

With humans placing ever-growing pressure on seagrass habitats, marine reserves also provide an important reference from which changes to seagrass and their ecological assemblages may be assessed. After eight years of protection of seagrass beds (Posidonia australis) in no-take marine reserves (Sanctuary Zones) within the Jervis Bay Marine Park (New South Wales, Australia; zoned in 2002), we aimed to assess what changes may have occurred and assess continuing change through time in fish assemblages within these seagrass meadows. Using baited remote underwater videos (BRUVs), we sampled seagrass fish assemblages at three locations in no-take zones and five locations in fished zones three times from 2010 to 2013. Overall, we observed a total of 2615 individuals from 40 fish species drawn from 24 families. We detected no differences in total fish abundance, diversity, or assemblage composition between management zones, although we observed a significant increase in Haletta semifasciata, a locally targeted fish species, in no-take marine reserves compared with fished areas. Fish assemblages in seagrass varied greatly amongst times and locations. Several species varied in relative abundance greatly over months and years, whilst others had consistently greater relative abundances at specific locations. We discuss the potential utility of marine reserves covering seagrass habitats and the value of baseline data from which future changes to seagrass fish populations may be measured. © 2019",,213-223,,5,5,,Aquac.

We used the Q methodology to investigate stakeholders’ perspectives on the management and conservation strategies for the Bouche du Roy Community Biodiversity Conservation Area (CBCA), an area mainly made up of mangrove ecosystems. Our results highlight three main perspectives explaining 70% of the total variance. The optimistic perspective contends that the creation and management of the CBCA are lifesaving and essential, the restrictive perspective maintains that its creation and management restrict the activities of local residents, while the alternative perspective asserts that the CBCA is well managed, but that some aspects need improvement to meet the needs of the community. Despite differences between perspectives, participants’ responses also highlighted several aspects of consensus and opportunities for a constructive debate on the management of the CBCA. Nevertheless, the management of the CBCA is confronted with complex socio-ecological interactions that adversely affect the livelihoods of certain stakeholders. The development of alternative incomes by and for these stakeholders, especially the diversification of sustainable livelihoods, can both achieve conservation goals and respond to their needs. Our findings can help provide stakeholders and decision makers with a mapping of social perspectives that can be used to promote inclusive CBCA management and conservation strategies. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V. 2024.",,,,1,29,,J.

Surface sediments were analyzed to provide information on the levels, spatial trends and sources of trace elements, aliphatic hydrocarbons (AH), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), and fecal steroids. Low levels of trace elements were observed, and the enrichment factors showed no evidence of contamination in the area. The highest concentrations of all organic contaminants were recorded in the samples collected in the external sublittoral stations, mainly in the Săo Sebastiăo Channel, which had the finest grain sizes and higher OC contents. With the exception of the samples collected in the inner part of the bay, most of the samples presented unresolved complex mixtures (UCM) of AH, which are indicators of petroleum and its derivative inputs. PAH concentrations were higher in the external stations, but the levels were below the limits of the sediment quality guidelines (SQG) recommended in Brazilian federal legislation on dredged sediments. The major sources of these compounds were from pyrolytic sources. Sewage contamination was detected mainly in the inner part of the bay, especially near the northern stream and the sewage outfall. The contaminant distributions were related to the hydrodynamics of the intertidal flat, with the most central dynamic areas presenting lower contaminant levels. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,42-51,,,164,,Ocean Coast.

Balancing intensive development and biodiversity conservation is crucial for achieving ecological sustainability. Ecological connectivity (EC) enhances regional ecological sustainability by promoting interactions between ecological sources and stabilizing ecosystem dynamics. Spatial conservation prioritization (SCP) is a useful approach for identifying areas requiring protection; however, resource allocation decisions for connectivity conservation remain challenging. In this study, we identified SCP areas and evaluated EC using the circuit theory-based Omniscape algorithm on Jeju Island, South Korea, a designated natural heritage site. Our objectives were to identify key pinch point areas, determine suitable locations for conservation and restoration based on our EC findings, and discuss strategies to enhance EC on Jeju Island. Our results showed that ecological sources are predominantly situated in central and eastern Jeju Island, whereas urban areas had high resistance values. These findings indicate ecological disconnection between coastal and mid-mountain areas; pinch points represented 4.92% and 8.87% of these areas, respectively. Channeled areas were mainly concentrated in mid-mountain regions. SCP areas occurred in small (22.06 km2, 18%) and large (97.52 km2, 79.54%) patches in coastal and mid-mountain areas, respectively, which did not overlap with existing protected areas. Our findings will assist land use planners and stakeholders in implementing conservation and restoration policies for mid-mountain areas, and provide guidance for connecting coastal and inland regions. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,239,,Landsc.

Since a number of interviewees (60.5%) reported zero WTP values, a spike model was adopted to analyze the gathered CV data with zero WTP observations. The mean household WTP was statistically significantly estimated to be KRW 3170 (USD 2.7) per year. The yearly national value is worth KRW 63.3 billion (USD 53.9 million).

Criteria included fisher involvement, biodiversity conservation and fisheries management objectives. A repeat search without “fisher” and synonyms found, 62,622 papers indicating that most closed area studies had no mention of any fisher involvement. The general success of the areas selected suggests that fisher involvement benefits both biological conservation and fisheries management. Fisheries and biodiversity conservation outcomes were not exclusive to any one type of management closure (e.g. MPA, Fishery Closure). Twenty-four indicators were selected, designed to provide measurable targets. High scoring indicators included management, planning and socio-economic indicators such as local support (100%), habitat protection (100%), conservation and fisheries objectives (100%), monitoring (91.7%) and fishers concerns (91.7%). Bio-ecological-based indicators scored lower in most cases for all types of areas. Fisheries closures rated as highly as the MPAs with respect to both fisheries and bio-ecological indicators. The scorecard provided a reasonable means to evaluate management success in the light of often qualitative or missing data. Addressing the interests and utilizing knowledge of those affected by closures and familiar with the area, most often local fishers, is key to achieving management objectives. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,860-876,,5,18,,Fish Fish.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,ADAPTIVE MANAGEMENT; biodiversity; CONSERVATION; conservation status; DANGEROUS TARGETS; ecosystem management; ecosystem-based management; environmental indicator; fishery closures; fishery management; FISHING GROUNDS; GILBERT BAY; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; habitat conservation; habitat management; literature review; management practice; marine park; marine protected areas; NO-TAKE RESERVES; performance indicators; PROTECTED AREAS; RESOURCE-MANAGEMENT; scorecard; systematic review; UNIT-EFFORT,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We used high-resolution spatial and temporal data on porpoise abundance and fishing effort from the Danish Skagerrak Sea to identify areas with potentially higher and lower risk of porpoise bycatch. From May 2010 to April 2011, 4 commercial gillnet vessels were equipped with remote electronic monitoring (REM) systems. The REM system recorded time, GPS position and closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage of all gillnet hauls. REM data were used to identify fishing grounds, quantify fishing effort and document harbour porpoise bycatch. Movement data from 66 harbour porpoises equipped with satellite transmitters from 1997 to 2012 were used to model population density. A simple model was constructed to investigate the relationship between the response (number of individuals caught) and porpoise density and fishing effort described by net soak time, net string length and target species. Results showed that a model including both porpoise density and fishing effort data predicted bycatch better than models containing only one factor. We therefore conclude that porpoise telemetry or REM data allow for identification of areas of potential high and low bycatch risk, and better predictions are obtained when combining the 2 sources of data. The final model can thus be used as a tool to identify areas of bycatch risk. © Inter-Research 2016.",,261-271,,,555,,Mar. Ecol. Prog.

In 2012 Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) implemented the national 10-year Conservation and Management Strategy for the Elephant in Kenya, which includes an action aimed at testing whether beehive fences can be used to mitigate human–elephant conflict. From 2012 to 2015, we field-tested the efficacy of beehive fences to protect 10 0.4-ha farms next to Tsavo East National Park from elephants. We hung a series of beehives every 10 m around the boundary of each farm plot. The hives were linked with strong wire. After an initial pilot test with 2 farms, the remaining 8 of 10 beehive fences also contained 2-dimensional dummy hives between real beehives to help reduce the cost of the fence. Each trial plot had a neighboring control plot of the same size within the same farm. Of the 131 beehives deployed 88% were occupied at least once during the 3.5-year trial. Two hundred and fifty-three elephants, predominantly 20–45 years old entered the community farming area, typically during the crop- ripening season. Eighty percent of the elephants that approached the trial farms were kept out of the areas protected by the beehive fences, and elephants that broke a fence were in smaller than average groups. Beehive fences not only kept large groups of elephants from invading the farmland plots but the farmers also benefited socially and financially from the sale of 228 kg of elephant-friendly honey. As news of the success of the trial spread, a further 12 farmers requested to join the project, bringing the number of beehive fence protected farms to 22 and beehives to 297. This demonstrates positive adoption of beehive fences as a community mitigation tool. Understanding the response of elephants to the beehive fences, the seasonality of crop raiding and fence breaking, and the willingness of the community to engage with the mitigation method will help contribute to future management strategies for this high human–elephant conflict hotspot and other similar areas in Kenya. © 2017 Society for Conservation Biology",,743-752,,4,31,,Conserv.

More typically, planned actions are applied incrementally over periods of years or decades. During protracted implementation, the character of the connected ecological system will change as a function of external anthropogenic pressures, local metapopulation processes, and environmental fluctuations. For heavily exploited systems, habitat quality will deteriorate as the plan is implemented, potentially influencing the schedule of protected area implementation necessary to achieve conservation objectives. Understanding the best strategy to adopt for applying management within a connected environment is desirable, especially given limited conservation resources. Here, we model the sequential application of no-take marine protected areas (MPAs) in the central Philippines within a metapopulation framework, using a range of network-based decision rules. The model was based on selecting 33 sites for protection from 101 possible sites over a 35-yr period. The graph-theoretic network criteria to select sites for protection included PageRank, maximum degree, closeness centrality, betweenness centrality, minimum degree, random, and historical events. We also included a dynamic strategy called colonization–extinction rate that was updated every year based on the changing capacity of each site to produce and absorb larvae. Each rule was evaluated in the context of achieving the maximum metapopulation mean lifetime at the conclusion of the implementation phase. MPAs were designated through the alteration of the extinction risk parameter. The highest ranked criteria were PageRank while the actual implementation from historical records ranked lowest. Our results indicate that protecting the sites ranked highest with regard to larval supply is likely to yield the highest benefit for fish abundance and fish metapopulation persistence. Model results highlighted the benefits of including network processes in conservation planning. © 2018 by the Ecological Society of America",,,,1,29,,Ecol.

There is, however, minimal spatial protection of marine and coastal ecosystems in the region, potentially reducing the sustainability of the planned development and the likelihood of achieving Sustainable Development Goals. As a precursor to Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) processes in the three countries, and to guide establishment of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), this study aimed to: assess two headline indicators of ecosystem status, namely their potential threat status and current spatial protection levels; and to use Systematic Conservation Planning (SCP) to prioritise specific areas for protection to achieve networks of MPAs that are representative of national and regional biodiversity. Two hundred and forty eight ecosystem types in the coastal (n = 134), offshore benthic (n = 86) and pelagic (n = 28) zones of the BCLME were classified, mapped and assessed. Overall, 35% of all ecosystem types in the study domain were threatened, with more threatened coastal (37%) and offshore benthic (37%) ecosystem types compared to pelagic ecosystem types (14%), although the same pattern was not necessarily evident within each country. Nearly two thirds (59%) of the BCLME ecosystem types were not protected in MPAs, and most of those that were well (19%) or moderately protected (14%) were coastal types that are within a single extensive MPA in Namibia. Notwithstanding, there was still a sufficient area of most ecosystem types that was assessed to be in good ecological condition in all three countries and that could be prioritised for representative protection of the region's biodiversity. A portfolio of priority conservation areas was identified from Marxan selection-frequency outputs, providing a spatial vision for protected areas in the BCLME that includes coastal, inshore and offshore areas in all three countries. This first assessment of marine ecosystem threat and protection status for an entire LME demonstrates a rapid science-based approach that can inform integrated ocean management and multiple development goals. The study provides a basis for identifying Ecologically or Biologically Significant Marine Areas, potential sites for MPAs or other spatial management in the region, and demonstrates the contribution of SCP and spatial management to MSP. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,117-129,,,168,,Ocean Coast.

We review their history in South Africa and recognise four periods. Period 1 (1964–1994) provided initial protection but was based on exclusionary, preservationist policies, was ad hoc in the absence of a national plan, and neglected social considerations. Period 2 (1994–2010) began introducing people-oriented policies, focused on ecosystems rather than species, and was strengthened by the formation of a national coordinating body. Period 3 (2010–2019) heralded improvements in design, ecosystem representation and stakeholder engagement, yet fractured governance hindered coordination and management. Period 4 (Since 2019) added challenges in managing new offshore MPAs. Progress in achieving effective MPA governance and management was assessed over these periods for 17 components of governance and management, representing key issues for which changes could be identified throughout. Fifteen components indicated overall improvements—most notably legislation and policies, MPA establishment, planning and design, and staff training and skills—whereas progress for most of the other components was weaker. Zero net gains were recorded for enforcement and compliance, and for the staff complement. Our recommendations flow principally from components assessed as faring poorly. We conclude with eight critical needs: (1) specify detailed objectives for every MPA; (2) fast-track management plans for new MPAs; (3) improve law enforcement and compliance; (4) enhance participation of adjacent communities and other stakeholders; (5) address MPA-related social impacts and injustices, and improve benefit sharing; (6) ensure financial sustainability; (7) strengthen evaluations of management effectiveness; and (8) improve cooperation between government authorities responsible for MPAs and fisheries. © 2023 The Author(s).

Evidence was assessed for coverage and representivity, protection of important biodiversity areas, other recognised elements of effectiveness, connectivity, and ecological effects—from the scale of individual MPAs to the MPA network scale. We conducted complementary novel analyses to supplement the review and to objectively determine where and how the MPA network can be improved. Evidence shows that South Africa’s MPAs now provide some protection to all ecoregions and 87% of ecosystem types but to less than 50% of assessed species groups. MPAs are generally well-sited, but gaps were revealed on the west coast and in estuaries, the deep sea, and two ecologically and biologically significant areas. Enforcement emerged as a key concern, and many MPAs could be improved through expansion or by increasing no-take areas. The majority of relevant papers recorded beneficial ecological effects, detectable as increases in parameters such as the abundance, biomass, sizes or reproductive output of species. Few papers examined whether ecological benefits translate into adjacent fisheries benefits, but all those that did recorded positive effects. Full protection was more effective than partial protection, with effectiveness most clearly demonstrated for vulnerable target taxa. Further research and monitoring to achieve evaluations of effectiveness are recommended, with greater focus on neglected MPAs and species. Understanding the ecological connectivity between MPAs, an important dimension for climate-change adaptation and hence for the persistence and resilience of South Africa’s marine biodiversity, is identified as a key area for future research and inclusion in MPA planning. © 2021 The Author(s).

In 2004, after two unsuccessful attempts to implement the MLPA, California created the MLPA Initiative through a memorandum of understanding among two state agencies and a privately-funded foundation that established objectives for a planning process, set out a timeline for deliverables, and established roles and responsibilities for key bodies.This paper analyzes how recommendations developed through the Initiative supported regulatory decisions by the California Fish and Game Commission to greatly expand the network of marine protected areas. That network includes 124 MPAs, covering 16.0% of state waters outside of San Francisco Bay, including 9.4% of state waters in ""no-take"" areas. Such an extensive network of MPAs that consciously incorporates science-based design guidelines is an important achievement worldwide and is a rare example of a sub-national government creating MPAs.Successful implementation of formally adopted public policies is well recognized as a complex process critical to achieving policy goals. The Initiative's Blue Ribbon Task Force played a significant role in guiding the planning process to its successful conclusion in providing the State the information it needed to redesign its system of MPAs. Additional elements of the Initiative's success included: effective statutes, adequate funding and professional capacity, robust stakeholder engagement, strong science guidance, effective decision support tools, transparent decision making, and sustained support from top state officials and private foundations. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,Mar-13,,,74,,Ocean Coast.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), under the National Marine Sanctuary Act, and the State of Florida, under Florida statutes, act as co-trustees with the authority to recover monetary damages and restore injuries to the natural resources of the FKNMS. Previously, it was difficult to accomplish assessment and restoration planning for many of these incidents in a cost-effective manner. With the goal of expediting development of litigation-quality natural resource damage claims for seagrass grounding incidents, NOAA has developed and implemented standardized damage assessment, restoration planning, and restoration scaling protocols for seagrass injuries. The protocols center around three major components: 1) GIS-based field assessment, 2) model-based estimation of injury recovery rates, and 3) calculation of compensation using Habitat Equivalency Analysis. By standardizing the assessment and restoration planning procedures associated with these types of incidents, NOAA and the State of Florida have substantially lowered the threshold for the size and severity of grounding injuries that can be cost-effectively assessed and restored, significantly increasing the number of cases that can be addressed annually. In addition to the direct resource benefits of increased assessment and restoration, we anticipate that there will also be a deterrent effect on future groundings.",,109-119,,SPEC. ISS. 40,21,,J.

We examine contemporary (1973-2012) and historical (1250-1950) data on nesting beach distributions for green sea turtles Chelonia mydas in the Hawaiian Islands. Green turtle populations in Hawai'i declined until federal and international protections began in the 1970s, but over the past four decades one index population has shown encouraging increases and broader recovery has been inferred. We find that 80% of historically major nesting populations are extirpated, or have heavily reduced nesting abundances in comparison with current estimates. Furthermore, historical nesting areas were not geographically isolated, but distributed across the archipelago. In comparison, today more than 90% of green turtle nesting in Hawai'i occurs at a single site that is vulnerable to sea level rise.

The coastal zone supports unique and especially fragile ecosystems that tend to have high biological productivity, being areas of great environmental and aesthetic value. The reproduction and nursery grounds of many fish and shellfish species of economic value are in the coastal zones, and a significant proportion of the catch of these species comes from this area. Integrated coastal zone management (ICZM) is a process for the management of the coast using an integrated approach, regarding all aspects of the coastal zone, including geographical and political boundaries, in an attempt to achieve sustainability. A modern method of sustainable management of fisheries resources, contributing to the recovery of fish stocks, is the creation of marine protected areas (MPA). Artificial reefs are a form of an MPA and have been proposed as a potential tool for the restoration of marine habitats. The objectives of creating an artificial reef include the creation of a refuge for aquatic organisms, helping to maintain and/or increase biodiversity, enhance fish production through the protection of juvenile stages from predators and fishing gear. Three principal tactics are available to fishery managers to replenish depleted stocks and manage fishery yields. Namely the regulation of fishing effort, the restoration and/or protection of degraded nursery and spawning habitats, and the increase in recruitment through propagation and release (stock enhancement) in specifically selected areas. The first two methods are the basis for the current approach for managing marine fisheries worldwide. The potential of the third method did not demonstrate evidence of increased yield in the past. However faced with declining stocks and an expanding world population, managers worldwide are looking at marine enhancement with renewed interest. Declining marine populations in combination with global increasing demand, have highlighted an interest in marine fish enhancement. Technological advances in fish tagging and marine finfish culture have provided a basis for successful hatchery-based marine enhancement. However a responsible approach is imperative to developing, evaluating and managing marine stock enhancement programs. Given the worldwide decline in fisheries catch rates, bold new initiatives are needed to revitalize fisheries. It is imperative to preserve existing stocks and work to restore and increase the harvest levels of these stocks using a combination marine stock enhancement programs, artificial reefs, habitat protection and fish effort regulation. The coastal zone is a difficult area to manage due to temporal issues (current, tides and seasons) and the overlapping of physical geography and hydrography (inshore, shoreline, offshore), of jurisdictions, legal mandates and the remits of government agencies and the often competing needs of stakeholders. Management must embrace a holistic viewpoint of the functions that makeup the complex and dynamic nature of interactions in the coastal environment. An optimal balance between environmental protection and the development of economic and social sectors is paramount. © 2016 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.",,Jan-62,,,,,,,,,,,"Nova Science Publishers, Inc.",,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Coast.

We considered consumptive and nonconsumptive interests of multiple stakeholders (i.e., fishers, scuba divers, conservationists, managers, scientists) in the systematic design of a network of marine protected areas along California's central coast in the context of the Marine Life Protection Act Initiative. With advice from managers, administrators, and scientists, a representative group of stakeholders defined biodiversity conservation and socioeconomic goals that accommodated social needs and conserved marine ecosystems, consistent with legal requirements. To satisfy biodiversity goals, we targeted 11 marine habitats across 5 depth zones, areas of high species diversity, and areas containing species of special status. We minimized adverse socioeconomic impacts by minimizing negative effects on fishers. We included fine-scale fishing data from the recreational and commercial fishing sectors across 24 fisheries. Protected areas designed with consideration of commercial and recreational fisheries reduced potential impact to the fisheries approximately 21% more than protected areas designed without consideration of fishing effort and resulted in a small increase in the total area protected (approximately 3.4%). We incorporated confidential fishing data without revealing the identity of specific fisheries or individual fishing grounds. We sited a portion of the protected areas near land parks, marine laboratories, and scientific monitoring sites to address nonconsumptive socioeconomic goals. Our results show that a stakeholder-driven design process can use systematic conservation-planning methods to successfully produce options for network design that satisfy multiple conservation and socioeconomic objectives. Marine protected areas that incorporate multiple stakeholder interests without compromising biodiversity conservation goals are more likely to protect marine ecosystems. © 2008 Society for Conservation Biology.",,691-700,,3,22,,Conserv.

Despite well-documented shortcomings, additive scoring approaches to conservation prioritization are still prevalent. This paper discusses the shortcomings and advantages of both approaches applied in Fiji to identify priorities for terrestrial protected areas. The two main shortcomings of using a scoring approach (discussed in Keppel (2014) [1]) that are resolved with decision science approaches (presented in Klein et al. (2014) [2]) in Fiji were (1) priorities did not achieve one of the most important stated conservation goals of representing ~40% of Fiji's major vegetation types and (2) the weighting of different selection criteria used was arbitrary. Both approaches considered expert knowledge and land-sea connections important to decision makers in Fiji, but only decision science can logically integrate both, in addition to other important considerations. Thus, decision makers are urged to use decision science and avoid additive scoring systems when prioritizing places for conservation.

Most conservation planning for coral reefs focuses on removing threats in the sea, neglecting management actions on the land. A more integrated approach to coral reef conservation, inclusive of land-sea connections, requires an understanding of how and where terrestrial conservation actions influence reefs. We address this by developing a land-sea planning approach to inform fine-scale spatial management decisions and test it in Fiji. Our aim is to determine where the protection of forest can deliver the greatest return on investment for coral reef ecosystems. To assess the benefits of conservation to coral reefs, we estimate their relative condition as influenced by watershedbased pollution and fishing. We calculate the cost-effectiveness of protecting forest and find that investments deliver rapidly diminishing returns for improvements to relative reef condition. For example, protecting 2% of forest in one area is almost 500 times more beneficial than protecting 2% in another area, making prioritization essential. For the scenarios evaluated, relative coral reef condition could be improved by 8-58% if all remnant forest in Fiji were protected rather than deforested. Finally, we determine the priority of each coral reef for implementing a marine protected area when all remnant forest is protected for conservation. The general results will support decisions made by the Fiji Protected Area Committee as they establish a national protected area network that aims to protect 20% of the land and 30% of the inshore waters by 2020. Although challenges remain, we can inform conservation decisions around the globe by tackling the complex issues relevant to integrated land-sea planning. © 2012 by the Ecological Society of America.",,1246-1256,,4,22,,Ecol.

When deciding on the location of terrestrial protected areas, planners typically focus only on terrestrial conservation goals, ignoring potential linked benefits to marine ecosystems. These benefits include maintenance of downstream water quality, as forest protection can prevent changes in amount and composition of river runoff that negatively impacts coral reefs. This study aims to determine the benefit of different terrestrial reserve networks to the condition of coral reefs adjacent to the main islands of Fiji to support the work of Fiji's Protected Area Committee in expanding the national protected area estate through integrated land-sea planning. Options for terrestrial protected area networks were designed using six approaches, where the primary objective of each approach was to either achieve terrestrial conservation goals (e.g., represent 40% of each vegetation type) or maximize benefits to coral reefs by minimizing potential for land-based runoff. When achieving terrestrial conservation goals was the primary objective, the potential benefits to coral reef condition were 7.7-10.4% greater than benefits from the existing network of protected areas. When benefiting reefs was the primary objective, benefits to coral reefs were 1.1-2.8 times greater per unit area than networks designed to only achieve terrestrial conservation goals, but 31-44% of the terrestrial conservation goals were not achieved. These results are already being used by Fiji's Protected Area Committee to modify the boundaries of existing priority places to deliver outcomes that better meet terrestrial conservation goals while offering greater benefits to coral reef condition through prevention of run-off. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,360-365,,,44,,Mar.

Current legislation distinguishes various typesof marine protected areas, each allowing different levels of resource extraction. However, almost all of the theory for spatial conservation planning is focused on identifying no-takereserves. The current approaches to zoning for multiple typesof protected areas could result in suboptimal plans in terms of protecting biodiversity and minimizing negative socioeconomic impacts. We overcame these limitations in the first application of the multizone planning tool, Marxan with Zones, to design a network of four types of protected areas in the context of California's Marine Life Protection Act. We have produced a zoning configuration that entails mean value losses of less than 9% for every fishery, without compromising conservation goals. We also found that a spatial numerical optimization tool that allows for multiple zones outperforms a tool that can identify one zone (ie marine reserves) in two ways: first, the overall impact on the fishing industry is reduced, and second, a more equitable impact on different fishing sectors is achieved. Finally, we examined the tradeoffs between representing biodiversity features and impacting fisheries. Our approach is applicable to both marine and terrestrial conservation planning, and delivers an ecosystem-based management outcome that balances conservation and industry objectives. © The Ecological Society of America.",,349-353,,7,8,,Frontiers Ecol.

Some of these organisms have adverse effects, for example by reducing biodiversity and causing ecosystem shifts. Others have upsides, such as benefits to fisheries or replacing lost ecological functions and strengthening biogenic complexity. Stopping the spread of NIS is virtually impossible and so the societal challenge is how to limit the socioeconomic, health, and ecological risks, and sustainably exploit the benefits provided by these organisms. We propose a move away from the notion that NIS have only negative effects, and suggest a turn towards an Ecosystem-Based Fishery Management approach for NIS (EBFM-NIS) in the Mediterranean Sea, the world's most invaded marine region. A structured, iterative, and adaptive framework that considers the range of costs and benefits to ecosystems, ecosystem services, and fisheries is set out to determine whether NIS stocks should be managed using sustainable or unsustainable exploitation. We propose fishery reforms such as multiannual plans, annual catch limits, technical measures for sustainable exploitation, and legitimization of unlimited fishing of selected NIS and introduction of a radical new license for NIS fishing for unsustainable exploitation. Depending on local conditions, investment strategies can be included within the EBFM-NIS framework to protect/enhance natural assets to improve ecosystem resilience against NIS, as well as fishery assets to improve the performance of NIS fisheries. Examples of the former include the enhancement of Marine Protected Areas, harvesting of invasive NIS within MPAs, and protection of overfished predators and key species. Examples of the latter include market promotion and valorisation of NIS products, development of novel NIS products, and innovative/alternative NIS fishing such as fishery-related tourism (‘pescatourism’). The application of the suggested EBFM-NIS would create jobs, protect and enhance ecosystem services, and help to meet the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 14: Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas, and marine resources for sustainable development. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,280,,J.

Throughout this region an influx of species is influencing the outcome of efforts to protect and restore nature. Despite calls for targeted removals of invasive species from protected areas, there is limited information about the effectiveness of this course of action from both an ecological and a socio-economic perspective. In this study, coordinated removals of lionfish (Pterois miles) by volunteers/scuba divers at three marine protected sites in Cyprus were conducted. The removal efficiency was monitored using visual-census surveys and citizen science data. Removals significantly decreased lionfish numbers but long-term suppression of lionfish would require monitoring and repetition of removals when necessary, since population recovery was sometimes rapid. Citizen science yielded the data needed to understand lionfish population changes and guide the timing of removal events, but was characterized by large variation and potential outliers, highlighting the need for large sample sizes. Questionnaire surveys were used to assess the social impact of participation in lionfish removals; these showed that involvement had a strong positive impact on knowledge about lionfish and motivation to support marine conservation activities – the divers were even willing to pay extra to remove lionfish. Management reforms would be needed to capitalize on this societal motivation, and enable effective lionfish removals by scuba divers, coordinated by competent authorities. The EU aims to protect at least 30% of the marine waters by 2030. Removal events could help shield selected conservation sites from the adverse effects of lionfish and at the same time help establish links with local communities, strengthening the sustainable use of marine systems both at corporate and at societal levels. © 2021 The Authors.

This often necessitates the use of focal species to inform conservation and management decisions. We used the systematic conservation-planning software Marxan to assess quantitatively whether a focal species can aid in conservation and management of tidal marsh birds. Using a metric of relative cost in the region and current protected areas, we identified priority areas for conservation of 5 specialist taxa-Clapper Rail (Rallus crepitans), Eastern Willet (Tringa semipalmata semipalmata), Acadian Nelson's Sparrow (Ammospiza nelsoni subvirgatus), Saltmarsh Sparrow (A. caudacuta), and Seaside Sparrow (A. maritima)-that nest primarily in tidal marshes in the northeastern United States. We compared the spatial prioritization of sites and cost-effectiveness of alternative protection scenarios that considered individual species, groups of species, and all species simultaneously to evaluate the appropriateness of a focal-species approach. Scenarios that prioritized areas for conservation based on single-species targets were poorly correlated across species. Scenarios based on Saltmarsh Sparrow conservation were most strongly related (rs = 0.759) to site prioritizations that considered all 5 tidal marsh specialists simultaneously. When comparing multispecies combinations to prioritizations based on the Saltmarsh Sparrow alone, the estimated costs, area of land protection, and number of individuals of each species protected were similar. These results suggest that no species is a good surrogate for another but that the Saltmarsh Sparrow may be a viable focal species for conservation planning to protect tidal marsh birds as a group. By evaluating protection scenarios for all species, we were able to identify areas where conservation is likely to have little or no effect, which could be as important for decision making as identifying the best sites. © 2018 American Ornithological Society.",,874-884,,4,120,,Condor,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: American Ornithological Society,,,,avian; Marxan; protected areas; salt marsh; systematic conservation planning,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

To determine factors that drive corallivory and develop more ecology-based restoration approaches, coral and corallivore communities were characterized and fish bite mark densities quantified on natural coral colonies and fragments outplanted on small artificial structures. Six study sites were distributed equally among three levels of fisheries management at southern Kenyan reefs (fished < reserve < no-take). Obligate corallivorous fish densities strongly correlated with coral cover regardless of fisheries management level, whereas facultative corallivorous fish (mainly parrotfish) were most abundant in no-take zones. High corallivorous snail densities were associated with low coral diversity and corallivorous sea stars were scarce. Bite mark densities on natural reefs were clearly higher for branching corals, but did not correlate to coral cover, coral diversity or corallivorous fish densities. Compared to natural colonies, predation pressure was up to 24-fold greater on outplanted coral fragments and especially fierce inside no-take zones. This high predation pressure correlated with low live tissue cover of outplanted fragments. These results demonstrate that reefs with low coral cover, often targeted for restoration, do not necessarily experience greater coral predation and that improved outplanting methods and species considerations are needed to address high predation pressure on outplanted fragments. The interplay between fisheries management, reef restoration and corallivory warrants further scrutiny: while obligate corallivorous fish are unlikely detrimental to reef recovery, high densities of facultative corallivorous fish could hamper restoration efforts. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,566,,J.

Integration between reef ecology and restoration could help address such concerns. A prime example is the use of grazing by herbivores to reduce coral nursery cleaning costs. However, the relation between herbivore communities and cleaning benefits remains unquantified. This study aimed to measure links between herbivorous fish communities, grazing intensity and coral nursery performance. Six reefs were selected in southern Kenya, equally divided across three levels of fisheries management (fished < reserve < no-take). Fish surveys determined herbivorous fish biomass and composition, and remote underwater videos recorded grazing intensity on coral nurseries. Accumulated fouling and coral growth were measured at the end of the 4-month study. Grazing intensity was sixfold lower and fouling density fourfold higher in the fished areas compared to protected zones. Higher fouling strongly correlated with lower coral growth: exponential growth constants in fished areas were respectively twice and three times as low compared to marine reserves and no-take zones. Across study sites grazing was dominated by bristletooth tangs (Ctenochaetus spp.), except where these were outcompeted by territorial damselfish. Thus, better coral nursery performance in protected areas can be partially linked to higher grazing intensity, which in turn is determined by both fish biomass and local species composition. We recommend protecting herbivorous fish species and placing coral nurseries in areas with high biomass of key grazers to improve coral nursery performance and reduce maintenance costs. © 2023 The Authors.

Very few have, however, published systematic assessments of the ecological responses to this network protection, hindering broad understanding of their generality, utility, and efficacy. We present data collected from systematic sampling of rocky reef fish assemblages at sites across a network of 27 no-take marine reserve areas (NTMR) and 27 partially protected areas (PPA) nested within multiple marine parks (regional networks) across three Australian bioregions spanning >1000 km of coastline (7° latitude) to test the generality of ecological change across this network. We also sampled 18 reference areas (outside of the marine parks) to provide an independent assessment of potential NTMR effects and also to assess whole marine park effects. Baited remote underwater video (BRUV) was used to sample fishes between depths of 20–40 m over austral winters in four years (2010, 2011, 2015, and 2016). Despite substantial bioregional differences in fish assemblages, large and consistent effects of NTMR protection were detected across all bioregions for a key commercially and recreationally harvested species, Chrysophrys auratus (pink snapper). There were substantial increases in relative abundance of C. auratus in NTMR compared with fished zones through time (effect sizes >150%). The wider assemblage of targeted fish (excluding C. auratus) only showed relatively small effects of protection (~11%) with trends observed for site-attached wrasses (labrids) and planktivores (e.g., commercially fished Scorpis lineolata) that are recreationally and commercially harvested. Furthermore, the relative abundance of non-target or by-catch species generally did not differ among management zones across the bioregional network. These results highlight how NTMR can be used to assess the ecological effects of fishing and wider environmental management, and can be incorporated into ecosystem-based management for reef species more generally. Importantly, the provision of robust evidence of the performance and generality of NTMR over large-spatial scales (e.g., bioregions) provides greater confidence in the expected outcomes from marine reserve networks as a conservation management approach. © 2021 The Authors.

In small island developing states, they often exceed their terrestrial counterparts in both number and area. To assess their effectiveness as a conservation measure over time, the accurate and up-to-date representation of marine protected areas through spatial and tabular data is imperative in order to establish baselines. Various regional and global agreements have set specific protection targets and these require spatial reporting on protected areas as an indicator of progress. For the insular Caribbean region, this study considers progress towards global Aichi Target 11 of the Convention on Biological Diversity which is to conserve at least 10% of coastal and marine areas, and progress towards the regional target of the Caribbean Challenge Initiative (CCI) to protect ""at least 20% of nearshore marine and coastal habitats"", both aiming for a 2020 deadline. Progress towards these targets differs widely depending on the accuracy of the datasets and the methods used. In an effort to update the current baseline of protection within the insular Caribbean, multiple governments, the Nature Conservancy and the Caribbean Marine Protected Area Management Network and Forum collaborated to develop a single insular Caribbean protected area dataset with accurate boundary information and the best available ecoregional and political boundaries. This study represents the most in-depth and spatially accurate effort to date to determine marine protected area coverage in the insular Caribbean. It is found that some form of marine management has been designated for around 7.1% of our study area in the insular Caribbean; progress towards Aichi Target 11 averaged among sovereign states within the insular Caribbean stands at approximately 3.25% and only three of the 10 participating governments in the CCI have reached their 20% target. Ocean protection was further assessed across the 25 governments and the three marine ecoregions by four different marine zones. Recommendations are made on regional to global cooperation for data sharing and reporting on indicators, highlighting possible directions to fill marine conservation gaps in the insular Caribbean. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,84-97,,,60,,Mar.

Intensified agricultural practices (too frequent mowing, use of mineral fertilizers and insecticides) lead to declines in the abundance and species diversity of the biota inhabiting them. The intensification of agricultural production in north-eastern Poland relates primarily to the increase in cattle numbers and the intensification of grassland management, but many areas were included in Natura 2000 network. Our study was aimed at indicating the impact of diverse use of meadows on the species richness and diversity of invertebrates, amphibians, and birds in the grasslands of Narew river valley, Special Bird Protection Area, where the intensification of grassland use was noted in the last decades, and part of the meadows was included in the agri-environmental program. The agri-environmental program is a very good tool for the protection of grassland biotic diversity. The highest taxonomic richness and diversity of the studied animal groups were found in meadows included in these programs with extensive use, while the lowest was in the over- and intensively used meadows fertilized with mineral fertilizers and liquid manure. Only the meadows in the agri-environment program were inhabited by the fire-bellied toad and the tree frog - amphibians from Annex IV of the Habitats Directive. The number of breeding bird species globally threatened (IUCN Red List), listed in Annex I of the EU Birds Directive, and with negative population trend in Europe (SPEC1–3) was highest in meadows included in EU conservation programs. The main factors reducing biotic diversity in the grassland of flooded river valley were the high number of grassland mowing per season, intensive fertilization, especially with liquid manure, the great distance of meadows to the river, low soil humidity, and low share of shrubs and trees in the meadows border zone. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,898,,Sci.

Yet, evidence of MPA benefits from long-term replicated before-after control-impact (BACI) studies and their usefulness in protecting target species are still rare, especially in northern temperate areas. Scientific rigor in the monitoring of MPAs is considered important for obtaining trust and compliance and can increase interest and enthusiasm for the benefits of marine conservation. Off the coast of southern Norway, a MPA implementation process started up in 2002. Based on comprehensive consultations with local fishers and managers, four experimental lobster reserves were appointed in 2004. Two years later (2006), the reserves came into effect as the Norwegian Directorate of Fisheries implemented regulations as a by-law of the Saltwater Fisheries Act that effectively banned all fixed gear. Long-term monitoring of the MPAs and adjacent control areas has enabled a rigorous scientific evaluation of the effects of these MPAs on lobster populations, including effects on density, growth, demography, behavior, and phenotypic diversity. As protection effects started to manifest, the lobster reserves attracted high public attention and were soon considered a credible supplement to traditional fisheries management. In the period from 2002 to 2021, more than 50 lobster reserves have been implemented in Norway. Here, we review the experiences since the lobster reserves were designated, implemented, and embraced by local communities in Norway, and over two decades have become an important tool for fishery management.

However, less than 1% of the region is under strictly legal protection although Seasonally Dry Tropical Forests (SDTFs) are globally highly endangered. There is an urgent need to increase the understanding of diversity pattern and threaten status of Caatinga plant species to preserve the unique biodiversity and protect endangered species. Species distribution modelling (SDM) can support strategic decisions in nature conservation for poorly researched tropical regions. This study provides the first highly representative, spatially explicit overview of plant diversity and threat status for the entire Caatinga, a semi-arid area in Northeast Brazil. For this purpose, we developed (a) a stacked species distribution modelling (S-SDM) approach to predict quantitatively floristic species richness and patterns of threatened plant species and (b) a combined approach of diversity hot spots and hubs of threatened species to derive conservation importance units (CIU) to contribute to improved nature reserve management. We applied the modelling technique MaxEnt to establish predictive distribution models with 22 uncorrelated predictors including climate, topography, solar radiation and soil information at a high spatial resolution of 30 arc-seconds (approx. 1 km). Spatial patterns of species richness and threat status were derived by stacking 1062 plant species and 27 endangered species, respectively. These outputs were compared to two levels of protected areas (Brazilian and international standards) and intensive human land use patterns to define a set of recommendations for conservation management. Our complementary S-SDM approach showed that our predicted CIUs covered an area of 24% across the entire biome, whereas only 7% of the Caatinga is currently protected based on the Brazilian standards. We found that apart from an excellent overlap of 38% between CIUs and the current protected areas, a substantial proportion of CIUs (89%) was predicted outside the existing reserve network. Moreover, our findings enable targeted surveys to be done in order to enhance conservation efforts and ensure the efficient use of available resources in this poorly studied tropical region. Future upcoming local and regional studies could focus on a multi-taxonomic approach including e.g. insects, reptiles or mammals as a holistic perspective towards biodiversity conservation. © 2016 Elsevier GmbH",,24-39,,,35,,J.

People involved in small-scale fisheries (SSF) may incur negative and disproportionate impacts from implementing MPAs, yet limited available data often restricts their representation in MPA planning. Using a Philippines case study, we focus here on the systematic design of a MPA network that aims to minimize and distribute costs equitably for SSF whilst achieving representation targets for biodiversity conservation. The objectives of the study are to: (1) document a participatory mapping approach for collecting SSF data for prioritization using the local knowledge of fishers; and (2) examine how the completeness and resolution of SSF data may affect prioritization outputs in terms of biodiversity representation, spatial efficiency, and distribution equity. In the data-poor region, we conducted participatory mapping workshops with fishers in 79 communities to collect data on the spatial distribution patterns of different SSF fisheries and communities, and employed remote sensing techniques to define coastal habitats, which were targeted for inclusion in MPAs. The datasets were integrated within the decision-support tool Marxan with Zones to develop three scenarios. The SSF data incorporated in each scenario varied based on their completeness (considered all fishing methods or only dominant methods) and resolution (fishing methods itemized by community or municipality). All scenarios derived MPA plans that met representation targets with similar area coverage. The outputs, however, varied in terms of distribution equity, measured by the distribution of opportunity costs (loss of fishing grounds) across different fisheries and communities. Scenarios that did not include minority fisheries or variations between communities, led to inequitable costs. These results highlight the need to incorporate detailed data on SSF at appropriate resolutions, and how this can be achieved through participatory approaches. © 2020 Kockel et al.",,,,5,15,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,aquaculture; Aquaculture; article; biodiversity; Biodiversity; conservation biology; Conservation of Natural Resources; Data Collection; decision support system; economics; ecosystem; Ecosystem; environmental protection; epidemiology; Fisheries; fishery; fishing; habitat; human; information processing; Oceans and Seas; opportunity cost; Philippines; population dynamics; Population Dynamics; procedures; remote sensing; sea; telemetry; Telemetry,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In response, many countries have committed through the Aichi Target 11 of the Convention on Biological Diversity to conserve 10% of the marine environment through ecologically representative and equitably managed MPAs by 2020. The rush to fulfill this commitment has raised concerns on how increasing MPA coverage will affect other elements of Target 11, including representation and equity. We examined a Philippines case study to assess and compare 3 MPA planning approaches for biodiversity representation and equitable distribution of costs to small-scale fishers. In the opportunistic approach, MPAs were identified and supported by coastal communities. The donor-assisted approach used local knowledge to select MPAs through a national-scale and donor-assisted conservation project. The systematic conservation planning approach identified MPA locations with the spatial prioritization software Marxan with Zones to achieve biodiversity objectives with minimal costs to fishers. We collected spatial data on biodiversity and fisheries features and performed a gap analysis to evaluate MPAs derived from different approaches. We assessed representation based on the proportion of biodiversity features conserved in MPAs and distribution equity by the distribution of opportunity costs (fishing areas lost in MPAs) among fisher stakeholder groups. The opportunistic approach did not ineffectively represent biodiversity and resulted in inequitable costs to fishers. The donor-assisted approach affected fishers disproportionately but provided near-optimal regional representation. Only the systematic approach achieved all representation targets with minimal and equitable costs to fishers. Our results demonstrate the utility of systematic conservation planning to address key elements of Target 11 and highlight opportunities (e.g., integration of local and scientific knowledge can address representation and equity concerns) and pitfalls (e.g., insufficient stakeholder considerations can exacerbate social inequalities) for planning MPAs in similar contexts. © 2019 Society for Conservation Biology",,137-147,,1,34,,Conserv.

While roughly half of the Korean tidal flats (~2400km2 from the 1970s through the 2000s) have been embanked, only a fragmented total of ~220km2 has received protection status. In the Wadden Sea also about one half of the coastal wetlands had been embanked. However, this long history came to an end in the 1980s, and almost all remaining wetlands are under high protection status, now designated as a World Heritage Site. Prior to the designation of the Getbol (in Korean meaning an extensive mud flat) Protected Areas (GPAs) field surveys under the Korean Survey and Monitoring Program (SMP) were performed to archive an inventory of the available tidal wetlands. After the designation of a GPA, monitoring for that area was commenced under the SMP. Sediment composition and macrozoobenthos received particular attention in the surveys in terms of parameters and frequency. While the Korean SMP aims to carry out inventories, the Trilateral Monitoring and Assessment Program (TMAP) in the Wadden Sea aims to identify spatio-temporal changes in habitats and selected species populations. The current Korean GPAs are exclusively designated to tidal flats. In contrast to the Wadden Sea, where the protected area consists of salt marshes, tidal flats and the adjacent shallow waters, there is poor awareness of the significant role of the tidal channels in the functioning of the Getbol ecosystem. Broadening the current GPAs to a comprehensive ecosystem entity to ensure natural development, is the next challenge. Following the 'success story' of the Wadden Sea, the Korean tidal wetlands should be designated as one integral protected area. A supposed offshore boundary for the arrangement of a full scale ecosystem unit is proposed here as a leverage point for the future protection of what can be called then the Korean 'Getbol Sea'. The Korean SMP is advised to incorporate the habitat classification and to improve the monitoring and its frequency, methodologically as well as financially, without losing the overall assessment. Scaling up the sciencepolicy interactions via policy-making processes is strongly recommended. As in the Wadden Sea, we further suggest international cooperation in the protection of all coastal wetlands in the entire Yellow Sea region. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,604-621,,PB,102,,Ocean Coast.

In particular, the Korean tidal flat was fully described in the aspects of spatial scale (viz. size), geographical distribution, biodiversity, and local culture. A particular emphasis was given to explain the framework of the coastal management in Korea, in terms of a legal aspect, by highlighting reclamation versus protection issues. First, we described the Yellow Sea by sketching the boundary, ocean and tidal currents, discharges from the major rivers, sedimentology, and the cooperative surveys between Korea and China. Next, the West Sea of Korea, where the offshore boundary often neighbored rather close to coastal zone because of the associating traditional livelihoods, was described to point out certain characteristics of hydrography, coastal landscape, tidal channels, tide, and sedimentary process. Then the Korean tidal flat which is the main topic of this article was introduced by highlighting the geographical distribution, biodiversity of benthic diatoms and macrozoobenthos, artisanal fisheries, and local culture in aspect of ecosystem services in tidal flats. Meantime, the issue of reclamation was mini-reviewed by tracking the chronicle development, aerial coverage, and deteriorated environmental impacts on the coastal ecosystem.

Despite its global popularity, however, human use zoning generates problems such as the separation of compatible uses and consequent user conflict (e.g., researchers and ecotourists). It allocates more resources to manage human uses than to biophysical conditions that protected areas are charged to conserve. It reduces manifestations of the same use (e.g., intensive and small-scale agriculture) into just one scale of impact. It uses objective criteria to define zones in situations where subjective values may conflict. In response, alternative zoning schemes have emerged, among them, resource condition-based approaches. These, however, tend to be highly technical, poorly evaluated, and show little evidence of adoption by protected area systems, especially in developing countries. This paper therefore proposes a condition-based approach that addresses these weaknesses by using pre-defined conservation targets as the principal criteria to define zones, thus clearly linking conservation planning (such as the Open Standards for the Practice of Conservation) and management zoning. Condition-based zoning focuses on strategic conservation actions with the use of conditions, indicators, standards, and corresponding preventative and corrective management actions, rather than being prescriptive and punitive as with the human use zoning model. Furthermore, the article proposes technology and methodology that are more appropriate for the technical capacity of developing countries. It also traces the development of condition-based zoning from early urban zoning and presents a pilot application in Costa Rica’s Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve. © 2021, IUCN - International Union for the Conservation of Nature.

To harmonize nature conservation with human well-being, EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2020 suggests Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystems and their Services (MAES) as the key concept for environmental planning and management in EU Member States. Applying this procedure is challenging due to its data-demanding and multidisciplinary nature, resulting in the ecoystem services (ES) approach being scarcely used in protected areas management. Increased data availability under EU biodiversity-related inventories and monitoring projects, as well as theoretical and empirical research advances developed during the last decade, should be put into practice to guide Member States towards local management frameworks and scenario building under the ongoing changes in the EU socio-economic environment. This study aims at filling this gap by embodying into the MAES operational framework a scenario-based approach and demonstrates this in a challenging case study of a Natura 2000 site, Lake Stymfalia, in Greece. The present management strategy, an ecological-friendly management practice, a water-efficient management practice and a non-environmentally friendly option (e.g. ecosystem destruction) are examined for current and future water demand under current and future climatic scenarios. The proposed methodological framework for ES operationalization is based on the available data (derived by EU Directives and/or modelling), expert judgment and stakeholder involvement. Therefore, this work applies and tests the importance of the MAES approach as a management and coordination platform. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V.

Not only the effects on competing maritime uses, but also the marine environment must be taken into account in the authorisation of such wind farms. Particularly the interests of environmental protection and conservation have special weight, due to international and national legal provisions and agreements. For the approval of offshore wind farms in the German Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), the EU's Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) directives and, if NATURA 2000 areas are involved, the appropriate assessment according to the Habitat Directive, are legally stipulated. In future, in the context of the spatial planning control of wind energy use, the Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) will also be mandatory in the German EEZ. These instruments have the task of ascertaining the impact on the marine environment caused by the construction, installation and operation of offshore wind farms, and of integrating this information into the decision-making process on the authorisation of such projects. For this purpose, the procedural specifications and methodological requirements of the instruments for Environmental Impact Assessment and management must be adapted to the specific situation of the authorization of offshore wind farms in the EEZ. This involves on the one hand the legal specifications of the authorisation procedure according to Marine Facilities Ordinance (SeeAnlV). On the other, this must be adapted to the specific conditions of the marine and to the specific correlations of impacts. Only then will an effective authorisation procedure be possible, in which the interests of the marine environment can properly be taken into account. The research project being implemented at the Berlin University of Technology (TU Berlin) for the integration of environmental assessment instruments into the authorisation procedure for offshore wind farms has had the goal of establishing these required adaptations1. For this purpose, indicators have been developed to serve as a guideline, and to structure both the process of the EIA and the process of the appropriate assessment according to the Habitats Directive with regard to the specific legal specifications and assessment standards. As a first step, the legal assessment standards were derived and developed. This step involved both the determination of the protected assets relevant under the authorisation process, and also the definition of the relationship of effects between the project and the protected assets concerned, which would be relevant to the decision-making process and were to be considered in the context of impact prognosis. For every correlation of impacts, the scientific state of knowledge is explained, and initial attempts for the assessment of possible effects of offshore wind energy turbines introduced and discussed. The core item of the project results is a discussion platform, in which the central EIA and authorisation-related issue of evaluation of environmental effects is described for various correlations of impacts (Koppel et al. 2003). © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2006.

Since these activities often overlap spatially, they can interfere with each other. This paper aims to evaluate the spatiotemporal variability in the relative abundance of the Atlantic seabob shrimp (Xiphopenaeus kroyeri), caught in the central coastal marine region of the State of Săo Paulo, Brazil, where port activity takes place next to environmental protection areas. Commercial fishing data from a 6-year period (2009–2014) were used to perform this evaluation. Generalized linear models (GLMs) were applied to the catch and effort data, and model coefficients were used to calculate the catch per unit effort (CPUE, kg/fishing day), which was standardized per square nautical mile and year. Semivariogram and kriging techniques were used to evaluate the existence of spatial dependence in the data and to estimate the standardized CPUE in unsampled areas. Isotropic spherical semivariogram models were fitted using the least squares method, and they showed a pattern of spatial dependence for all years. Variation in Atlantic seabob relative abundance within the vessel demarcation area of the Port of Santos was similar to that in the area used for dumping dredged material, although the latter was fished more frequently, thus creating larger catches. Therefore, commercial fishing data can be used to evaluate the spatiotemporal variation in the relative abundance of marine species in coastal regions. The results suggest that fishing and port activities interfere with one another in the region of the Port of Santos. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,50-58,,,177,,Cont.

Stakeholder groups and native tribes are advocating for reintroduction to restore historic populations. We investigated the potential for successful reintroduction by: (1) estimating expected equilibrium sea otter densities as a function of habitat variables to assess sea otter habitat in Oregon; and (2) spatially relating areas of high expected densities to human activities (e.g. fisheries, recreation, vessel activity, protected areas) to anticipate potential disturbance or fishery resource competition. We estimated that 4538 (1742?8976; 95% CI) sea otters could exist in Oregon, with higher expected abundance (N = 1551) and densities (x– = 2.45 km?2) within the southern region. Most core habitat areas (97%), representing clusters of high expected densities, overlapped with some form of human activity. While commercial shipping and tow lanes overlapped little (1%) with core habitat areas, recreational activities (58%) and fisheries (76%) had a higher degree of overlap, posing higher disturbance risk. We anticipate higher resource competition potential with the commercial red sea urchin fishery (67% of harvest areas) than the commercial Dungeness crab fishery (9% of high-catch crabbing grounds). Our study presents the first published carrying capacity estimate for sea otters in Oregon and can provide population recovery targets, focus attention on ecological and socioeconomic considerations, and help to inform a recovery plan for a resident sea otter population. Our findings suggest current available habitat may be sufficient to support a sea otter population, but resource managers may need to further investigate and consider whether current human activities might conflict with reestablishment in Oregon, if plans for a reintroduction continue. © 2021.

The research focuses on developing an optimal set of airborne raster data for the identification of the invasive alien species Spiraea tomentosa L. The plant species selected for the purposes of this study poses a serious threat to peat bog plant communities, moist coniferous forests, and meadows in Central Europe. The impact of the data acquisition time on the accuracy of classification and the percentage cover limit required for correct identification of a target species using the developed method were also investigated. The study area is located in the Lower Silesian forests in Poland and is protected as a Natura 2000 site. Airborne hyperspectral and laser scanning data were simultaneously acquired two times in the growing season (August and September 2016) parallel to on-ground reference data collection. The 1 m resolution HySpex images with spectral range of 0.4–2.5 ?m were corrected atmospherically, radiometrically and geometrically. Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) data acquired at 7 points/m2 were used to generate several products, e.g. Canopy Height Model (CHM), rasters representing morphometric features of the area (Multiresolution Index of the Ridge Top Flatness or Valley Bottom Flatness—MRRTF, MRVBF), wetness relations (Topographic Wetness Index—TWI) and the availability of light (Total Insolation—TI), intensity of laser pulse reflection and geometric relations of vegetation points (i.a. Vegetation Cover, Vegetation Mean Intensity). The Random Forest (RF) classification and different raster datasets were used to identify the target species. As a result, the highest accuracy was obtained for the scenario based on HySpex images acquired in September. The accuracy (f1 score) for the target species achieved 83%. The developed method for the identification of Spiraea tomentosa has a great potential for application and can be used for monitoring peat bogs threatened by invasion of alien plants. © 2020, The Author(s).",,357-373,,2,28,,Wetlands Ecol.

Germany has been a vocal supporter of this goal in the international arena but has yet to achieve sufficient protected area coverage domestically. We estimate that Germany needs to report an additional 4.65 million hectares of protected land to achieve 30x30. This article examines the potential of privately protected areas (PPAs) and other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs) to contribute to this goal. We explore the German Federal Nature Conservation Act and identify the legal hurdles for the designation and recognition of PPAs. Furthermore, we argue that OECMs have the potential to contribute significantly to 30x30 in Germany. We estimate that close to one million hectares of land could be classified as OECMs and outline potentially qualifying sites. In conclusion, we discuss the prerequisites for upscaling private land conservation in Germany, focusing on required conditions for establishing OECMs and incentivising conservation easements and long-term conservation leases through national funding programmes.

Previous studies have been conducted on a broad scale, but no geomorphological, surface substrate and habitat maps of the reefs have been produced. Such maps would provide researchers and coastal zone managers with significant information and estimations of reef growth and productivity. The primary aim of this study was to obtain detailed information on reefs in the Kimberley bioregion. This study used remote sensing and Geographic Information Systems (GIS), as well as multiple other data sources, to map reef geomorphic zones and the associated key habitats and substrate types of shallow nearshore reefs. Despite the macrotidal regimes and the turbid waters of the study area, remote sensing was effectively used to identify the dominant habitats and substrate types of eight reef platforms. This study provides long-term quantitative assessments of the main habitats and substrates of these reefs and offers a better understanding of reefs in the Kimberly bioregion. It is also a source of valuable information for the marine park and coastal managers investigating the coral reefs that have been targeted for conservation, but have not yet been the subject of regional analysis. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.",,26-42,,,127,,Ocean Coast.

The objective of this paper is to analyse the potential effects of a newly proposed ski resort development plan on bird assemblages in the High Tatras Mts. of Slovakia. I tested two hypotheses that total bird abundance, species richness and diversity would decline, due (1) to the removal of tree and shrub vegetation after ski run construction and/or (2) as a result of a negative edge effect (i.e. decline along ski run edge). I censused birds in three presently occurring habitat types [successional forest (n = 26 (number of circular plots)), spruce forest (n = 22) and dwarf pine stands (n = 21) and ski runs (n = 20)] close to proposed resort site. I used a variable circular plot method on two spatial scales with radii of 25 and 50 m (three counts per plot during breeding season in 2018). Circular plot samples from ski runs were taken from the closest existing ski resort with similar environmental conditions in Tatranská Lomnica. I found that total density, species richness and diversity were negatively affected by habitat alterations near this resort, and provided evidence of negative edge effect of ski runs on bird abundance, diversity metrices and evenness. Based on these results and a literature review, I recommend that building new ski resorts not be built in strictly protected areas and that future ski resort developments be restricted to areas that have lower conservation value. © 2020, Akadémiai Kiadó Zrt.",,213-226,,2,21,,Community Ecol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Akademiai Kiado Rt.,,,,Bird communities; Diversity; Edge effect; Population density; Skiing; Species richness; Winter recreation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Unfortunately, geospatial data of natural habitats of the GBHs are often outdated, imprecise, and coarse, and need updating for improved management and protection actions. Recent developments in satellite image availability, combined with enhanced machine learning algorithms and computing capacity, enable cost-efficient updating of geospatial information of these already severely fragmented habitats. This study aimed to develop a more accurate method for mapping closed canopy evergreen natural forest (CCEF) of the Eastern Arc Mountains (EAM) ecoregion in Tanzania and Kenya, and to update the knowledge on its spatial extent, level of fragmentation, and conservation status. We tested 1023 model possibilities stemming from a combination of Sentinel-1 (S1) and Sentinel-2 (S2) satellite imagery, spatial texture of S1 and S2, seasonality derived from Landsat-8 time series, and topographic information, using random forest modelling approach. We compared the best CCEF model with existing spatial forest products from the EAM through independent accuracy assessment. Finally, the CCEF model was used to estimate the fragmentation and conservation coverage of the EAM. The CCEF model has moderate accuracy measured in True Skill Statistic (0.57), and it clearly outperforms other similar products from the region. Based on this model, there are about 296,000 ha of Eastern Arc Forests (EAF) left. Furthermore, acknowledging small forest fragments (1-10 ha) implies that the EAFs are more fragmented than previously considered. Currently, the official protection of EAFs is disproportionally targeting well-studied mountain blocks, while less known areas and small fragments are underrepresented in the protected area network. Thus, the generated CCEF model should be used to design updates and more informed and detailed conservation allocation plans to balance this situation. The results highlight that spatial texture of S2, seasonality, and topography are the most important variables describing the EAFs, while spatial texture of S1 increases the model performance slightly. All in all, our work demonstrates that recent developments in Earth observation allows significant enhancements in mapping, which should be utilized in areas with outstanding biodiversity values for better forest and conservation planning. © 2020 by the authors.",,,,9,12,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI AG,,,,Biodiversity; Biodiversity values; BIOMASS ESTIMATION; conservation; Conservation; Conservation planning; Conservation status; Decision trees; DEFORESTATION; DIVERSITY; East Africa; Eastern arc; Eastern Arc; Eastern arc mountains; EASTERN ARC MOUNTAINS; Ecosystems; EXTINCTION; forest remote sensing; Forest remote sensing; Forestry; Geo-spatial informations; Image enhancement; LAND-COVER CLASSIFICATION; Learning algorithms; machine learning; Machine learning; Mapping; multi-sensor; Multi-sensor; Multi-temporal remote sensing; PLANTATIONS; Remote sensing; Satellite imagery; SENTINEL-1; Terrestrial biodiversity; Textures; TIME-SERIES DATA; Topographic information; Topography; VEGETATION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Analyzing networks developed from movements of six sea turtle species reveals marine connectivity and can help prioritize conservation efforts. Location: Global. Methods: We collated telemetry data from 1235 individuals and reviewed the literature to determine our dataset's representativeness. We used the telemetry data to develop spatial networks at different scales to examine areas, connections, and their geographic arrangement. We used graph theory metrics to compare networks across regions and species and to identify the role of important areas and connections. Results: Relevant literature and citations for data used in this study had very little overlap. Network analysis showed that sampling effort influenced network structure, and the arrangement of areas and connections for most networks was complex. However, important areas and connections identified by graph theory metrics can be different than areas of high data density. For the global network, marine regions in the Mediterranean had high closeness, while links with high betweenness among marine regions in the South Atlantic were critical for maintaining connectivity. Comparisons among species-specific networks showed that functional connectivity was related to movement ecology, resulting in networks composed of different areas and links. Main conclusions: Network analysis identified the structure and functional connectivity of the sea turtles in our sample at multiple scales. These network characteristics could help guide the coordination of management strategies for wide-ranging animals throughout their geographic extent. Most networks had complex structures that can contribute to greater robustness but may be more difficult to manage changes when compared to simpler forms. Area-based conservation measures would benefit sea turtle populations when directed toward areas with high closeness dominating network function. Promoting seascape connectivity of links with high betweenness would decrease network vulnerability. © 2022 The Authors.

In theory, protected populations flourish, replenish adjacent regions, and are self-sustaining. However, describing the efficacy of MPAs requires long-Term monitoring. Queen conch Lobatus gigas are iconic Caribbean denizens with populations that have been decimated by overfishing and are slow to rebound due to density-dependent breeding. The Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park (ECLSP) is a well-enforced, no-Take, old, and large MPA. Surveys in 1994, 2011, and 2016 were used to track changes in the abundance, size, and age structure of conch within the park. Statistical models suggested that abundances of adults in 50 km of repeated towed-observer surveys had declined by 71% in 2016 relative to 2011. Further, the remaining conch populations were associated with tidal channels, and these model results agreed with independent observations in 40 km of expanded survey area. Measurements of shell lip thickness, an estimator of relative age, showed an increase relative to 1994 with the greatest effect in 2016, indicating senescence. The ECLSP population appears to be slowly dying of old age, and an early life history process has been altered. Upstream populations have been heavily fished while habitats within the park remain productive, suggesting that low local retention and a lack of exogenous larval sources are driving the decline. A network of MPAs encompassing the entire life cycle and dispersal envelope of targeted organisms is needed for proper conch conservation. Surveys focused on tidal channels could locate candidate upstream populations of conch. © Inter-Research 2017.",,177-189,,,573,,Mar. Ecol. Prog.

To address this concern, we examined road mortality patterns among herpetofauna in a Greek-protected wetland over 12 years (2008-2019), utilizing a combination of statistical modeling and spatial analysis. We aimed to identify the most vulnerable species, seasonal variations, and ecological determinants of roadkill patterns. Across 14 documented species, 340 roadkill incidents were recorded, with snakes comprising over 60% of encounters. Both environmental and road-related factors significantly influenced roadkill risk. Spatial analysis techniques pinpointed critical hotspots, particularly in the southeastern region of the study area. These findings highlight the need for targeted mitigation strategies to protect herpetofauna within this PA. Understanding the specific factors influencing roadkill patterns is crucial for implementing effective conservation measures and safeguarding these vulnerable species.Abstract The pervasive expansion of human-engineered infrastructure, particularly roads, has fundamentally reshaped landscapes, profoundly affecting wildlife interactions. Wildlife-vehicle collisions, a common consequence of this intricate interplay, frequently result in fatalities, extending their detrimental impact within Protected Areas (PAs). Among the faunal groups most susceptible to road mortality, reptiles and amphibians stand at the forefront, highlighting the urgent need for global comprehensive mitigation strategies. In Greece, where road infrastructure expansion has encroached upon a significant portion of the nation's PAs, the plight of these road-vulnerable species demands immediate attention. To address this critical issue, we present a multifaceted and holistic approach to investigating and assessing the complex phenomenon of herpetofauna road mortality within the unique ecological context of the Lake Karla plain, a rehabilitated wetland complex within a PA. To unravel the intricacies of herpetofauna road mortality in the Lake Karla plain, we conducted a comprehensive 12-year investigation from 2008 to 2019. Employing a combination of statistical modeling and spatial analysis techniques, we aimed to identify the species most susceptible to these encounters, their temporal and seasonal variations, and the ecological determinants of their roadkill patterns. We documented a total of 340 roadkill incidents involving 14 herpetofauna species in the Lake Karla's plain, with reptiles, particularly snakes, being more susceptible, accounting for over 60% of roadkill occurrences. Moreover, we found that environmental and road-related factors play a crucial role in influencing roadkill incidents, while spatial analysis techniques, including Kernel Density Estimation, the Getis-Ord Gi*, and the Kernel Density Estimation plus methods revealed critical areas, particularly in the south-eastern region of Lake Karla's plain, offering guidance for targeted interventions to address both individual and collective risks associated with roadkill incidents.",,,,5,14,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001182724200001,,,,,,,cluster strength; collective risk; Getis-Ord Gi*; Greece; HABITAT; HERPETOFAUNA; herpetofauna roadkills; HIGHWAY; IDENTIFICATION; KDE; KDE plus; KERNEL DENSITY-ESTIMATION; LANDSCAPE; MORTALITY; NATIONAL-PARK; protected areas; SPATIAL ASSOCIATION; spatial statistics; wetlands; WILDLIFE ROADKILL,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The following risk and hazard variables were identified: human presence, usage zones, topographical features, soil coverage and land use and meteorological conditions. Coefficients (0 to 5) reflecting the fire risk or hazard degree were allocated to each variable in order to construct the maps. The integration of these maps, through a weighting model, resulted in the final risk mapping. The very high and extreme risk classes represented about 38% of the area for both periods.

In this study we assessed the spatial and temporal patterns and socioeconomic correlates of perceived conflict with lions, leopards, hyenas, cheetahs, and wild dogs in the Ngorongoro Highlands and Tarangire Manyara Ecosystem of Northern Tanzania using structured interviews (n = 356). Conflict with large carnivores was mainly prevalent during the wet season, and was spatially highly heterogeneous. Hyenas were the predominant conflict species, followed by leopards. Employing species-specific generalized linear mixed effects models, we assessed spatial, psychological, socio-economic and demographic correlates of perceived conflict. Interestingly, we found few consistencies among correlates for reported conflict frequency. Ethnicity, gender, age, education, fear of large carnivore species, and education had mixed effects on perceived conflict frequency while livestock ownership and relative wealth were negligible in explaining reported conflict frequency. These results suggest that education, psychological and demographic attributes were more influential (though dependent on species and landscape) in wildlife conflict perceptions than economic considerations. Although effective mitigation methods were generally available, they were rarely employed. We suggest that mitigation strategies that address local needs be made more accessible, and that conservation education programs particularly target conflict hotspot areas. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.",,41-50,,,199,,Biol.

Location: Montane proteoid fynbos shrublands, eastern coastal part of the Cape Floral Kingdom; coastal slopes of the Tsitsikamma and Outeniqua Mountains, South Africa. Methods: Estimates of optimal fire frequencies are often based on the relationship between plant age and the rate of seed accumulation of the slowest-maturing species. We established juvenile periods and recruitment success (measured as the ratio of post-fire recruits to the pre-burn population) after fires at different intervals, of serotinous, reseeding shrubs in the Proteaceae. From this we estimated minimum fire return intervals (FRIs) that would allow for their persistence in eastern coastal fynbos shrublands. Results: Juvenile periods ranged from 4 to 9 yr, which are comparable to ecologically similar proteoids elsewhere in fynbos and SE and SW Australian shrublands.

Post-fire recruitment success was near zero following a fire in 5-yr-old vegetation, always above replacement levels following fires in ?7-yr-old vegetation, and at a maximum in old (38 yr) fynbos. There was considerable variation in post-fire recruitment success for any particular FRI, species or site. The lack of a significant relationship between recruitment success and pre-fire vegetation age, suggests that once a critical post-fire age is attained, factors other than seed abundance affect recruitment success. Conclusions: From an ecological perspective, our findings imply a minimum FRI of 9 yr for eastern coastal fynbos. This is not intended to prescribe rigid management of fire according to a fixed rotation and does not negate the need to consider site- or species-specific requirements. Instead it provides a lower threshold for a range of acceptable FRIs below which a significant decline of species populations is predicted. We estimated minimum fire return intervals in eastern coastal fynbos shrublands of the Cape Floral Kingdom from juvenile periods and post-fire recruitment success of serotinous, reseeding shrubs (Proteaceae family). Juvenile periods of 4-9 yr and post-fire recruitment being successful after fires in ?7 yr-old vegetation imply a minimum fire return interval of ca. 9 yr in eastern coastal fynbos. © 2012 International Association for Vegetation Science.",,84-94,,1,16,,Appl.

Here, we identify areas of high neoendemism in a global diversity hotspot, the California flora, using range size data and molecular-based estimates of taxon age. Location: California, USA. Methods: We compiled distribution and range size data for all plant taxa endemic to California and internal transcribed spacer (ITS)-based age estimates for 337 putative neoendemics (15% of the endemic flora). This information was combined to identify areas in the state with high proportions of young and restricted-range taxa. We overlaid the distribution of neoendemic hotspots on maps of currently protected lands and also explored correlations between our diversity measures and climate. Results: The central coast of California, the Sierra Nevada and the San Bernardino Range contained endemics with the most restricted distributions on average, while areas in the Desert and Great Basin provinces found within the state were composed of the youngest neoendemics on average. Diversity measures that took age and range size into account shifted the estimate of highest endemic diversity in the state towards the Desert and Great Basin regions relative to simple counts of endemic species richness. Our diversity measures were poorly correlated with climate and topographic heterogeneity. Main conclusions: Substantial portions of California with high levels of plant neoendemism fall outside of protected lands, indicating that additional action will be needed to preserve the geographic areas apparently associated with high rates of plant diversification. The neoendemic flora of the deserts appears particularly young in our analyses, which may reflect the relatively recent origin of desert environments within the state. © 2010 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,403-413,,3,16,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,age; California; conservation planning; Desert flora; divergence; Diversification; ecosystem management; endemism; Endemism; floristics; Internal transcribed spacer; Mediterranean-type climate; population distribution; protected area; range size; species diversity; United States,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, elasmobranchs are often not the primary protection target of MPAs, and their contribution to protect these species remains to be better understood. In this study we examine the movement patterns of common stingrays in the Professor Luiz Saldanha marine park, a Portuguese temperate coastal MPA. Using acoustic telemetry, we tagged 31 common stingrays and analyzed their spatial and temporal distribution within the MPA and adjacent areas using a long-term data set. Our findings indicate that this species exhibits seasonal site fidelity, with greater presence during the colder months and reduced presence during warmer months. Space use areas did not exceed the size of the fully protected area, and nocturnal and crepuscular activity was significantly higher than during daytime. Additionally, we observed that most individuals seasonally migrated between this MPA and the nearby Sado estuary, likely to reproduce in the latter. These results demonstrate the site fidelity of common stingrays to an area within the marine park, however the protection provided is only seasonal. Seasonal protection of the movement corridor between the marine park and the estuary would improve the management of this species. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,246,,Ocean Coast.

However, pressures on Kimberley marine and coastal environments are growing. Future planning and management decisions will need to balance biodiversity conservation with economic activities such as mining developments, tourism, pearling, and commercial and recreational fishing. To inform future management of Kimberley coastal waters, a multi-disciplinary study was undertaken to estimate what values people attach to different characteristics of the Kimberley (such as marine reserves, aboriginal values, recreational facilities and economic development) and how such values may vary spatially. We conducted a two-part, online survey. In the first part, respondents completed a Public Participation GIS (PPGIS) mapping exercise where they could freely indicate value 'markers' in any area of the Kimberley coast. In the second part, respondents participated in a choice experiment (CE) where they had to choose their preferred option from a number of alternative management scenarios. A novel aspect of the CE was its explicitly spatial character. The Kimberley region was divided into multiple zones, and management outcomes were made spatially explicit. Survey respondents thus made choices not just about the levels of attribute changes but also in which zone they would occur. Results of the CE reveal that values and preferences vary between different areas of the Kimberley, and that people attach different values to more 'remote' zones compared to zones that may be more familiar (or more accessible) to respondents. In particular, respondents were averse to developing high levels of recreational facilities and economic development in the northern regions of the Kimberley coast. We show how CE values can be used to estimate the non-market value impacts of different policy scenarios in the Kimberley, and discuss the applicability and implications of this project for marine and coastal management on the Kimberley coast. This paper aims to contribute to the discussion about non-market values in costbenefit and multi-criteria analyses as complementary approaches to ecosystem services valuation. © Environmental Modelling and Software for Supporting a Sustainable Future, Proceedings - 8th International Congress on Environmental Modelling and Software, iEMSs 2016.

The guidelines for this process are still being developed by a Marine Expert Working Group under the umbrella of the European Commission. In 2002, following the adoption of the new German Federal Nature Conservation Act (Bundesnaturschutzgesetz), a relevant survey programme of the German Federal Ministry for Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety and the German Federal Agency for Nature Conservation with the title HabitatMareNATURA2000 started. Its purpose was to identify, locate and assess Annex I habitats and Annex II species of the Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC), and Annex I-bird species as well as regularly occurring migratory birds of the Birds Directive (79/409/EEC) in the offshore area of the German North Sea and Baltic Sea. The present chapter outlines how scientific conclusions (summarised in the more technical chapters of parts III and IV of this book) were used for this task in the German Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). For habitats and species, the selection process itself was performed according to the criteria given in Annex III (so-called stage I criteria) of the Habitats Directive and according to Article 4 of the Birds Directive, respectively. As a result of this programme, Germany nominated to the European Commission in 2004 a comprehensive set of ten new marine NATURA 2000 sites in the German EEZ of the North Sea and the Baltic Sea: eight under the Habitats Directive and two under the Birds Directive. It was the first Member State to do so. Short descriptions of the habitats and species of each site are given in this chapter. In total, 31.5% (1,040,783 hectares) of the German EEZ is now covered by NATURA 2000 sites. This shows that despite many commonly recognised obstacles (i.e., limited information on sea-bottom habitats and communities, or missing necessary scientific research programmes to fill knowledge gaps), it was possible to select and nominate sites in offshore areas which fulfil the quality objectives of the European Nature Directives. However, the overall conservation value of the selected Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) within the EU still depends on the collective efforts of all Member States and, particularly, on the implementation of effective management plans. © 2006 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.",,65-96,,,,,,,,,,,Springer Berlin Heidelberg,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Progress in Mar.

MPAs are established around the world using a wide range of legislative instruments and thus come in a variety of forms and shapes. Despite being regarded as the “cornerstone” of global marine conservation efforts, they currently cover less than 10% of the ocean surface. Individual MPAs aim to achieve goals ranging from the protection of specific habitats or species to sustaining certain commercial activities, such as fishing. By default, the establishment of MPAs intertwines social, ecological and economic considerations. Yet, the emphasis put on each of these domains can vary substantially when setting on-the-ground objectives, frequently creating conflict among stakeholders. In this manuscript, we first discuss current international conservation targets as well as potential future goals and delve into the question of how to assess the effectiveness of MPAs. Subsequently, we discuss the ambivalent role of this widely applied management tool at the crossroads between biodiversity conservation and fisheries management. Placing MPAs in a social-ecological framework, we call for clear and measurable goals to evaluate MPAs from an interdisciplinary perspective. Finally, we present the Baltic Sea, with its high degree of anthropogenic impact, long fishing history and comparatively extensive MPA coverage, as an interesting case study to investigate the role of MPAs in promoting a sustainable management of the ocean. © Copyright © 2021 Kriegl, Elías Ilosvay, von Dorrien and Oesterwind.",,,,,8,,Front.

It is such hydrobiocenoses that are the most susceptible to increasing anthropogenic impact. Phytoplankton is a good indicator of the ecological situation in the reservoir. The aim of the work was to analyze the composition and structure of phytoplankton of some small urbanized lakes of Samara region with different levels of protection and degree of anthropogenic load. Here, this is the first time we present an analysis of the current ecological state of three small water bodies having various nature protection statuses: Lake Yaitskoe (53°10'85?N,50°17'46?E), the regional natural monument; Lake Gatnoe (53°14'93?N, 50°11'83?E), Samara region natural heritage site; and Lake Bolshoe Vasilievskoe (53°54'40?N, 49°53'24?E), the suburban lake located in the transition zone of the Middle Volga complex biosphere reserve (See Table 1). We collected samples for phytoplankton study and basic physical and chemical measurements in the growing season from 2013 to 2014 (See Table 2). We sampled the algae with a Ruttner bathometer. The material was fixed with 40% formalin solution. The cell count was carried out in the chamber ""Uchinskaya"" (Russia) with a volume of 0.01 ml. This chamber is a glass plate with low sides, the bottom of which is equipped with a special counting grid, optimized for counting plankton. Organisms are counted twice in 20 bands. Species identification of algae and counting of their cells were carried out on the microscope ""BIOLAR PI"" (limited liability company ""Biolar"", Poland) with an increase of 600 times. To determine the species of algae, we used reference guides from the series ""Determinants of freshwater algae of the USSR"" and ""Susswasserflora von Mitteleuropa"". The classification of Reynolds and co-authors was used to differentiate phytoplankton into functional groups. S1-type (planktotrichete type) consisted of filamentous non-heterocyst forms of cyanoprokaryotes that previously belonged to genus Oscillatoria, M-type contained representatives of genus Microcystis, H1-type contained representatives of genera Anabaena and Aphanizomenon. The similarity of the algae species composition of lakes was estimated with the Sorensen coefficient (Ks). The level of cenotic diversity and the degree of community alignment were assessed using Shannon (H) and Pielu (E) indices, respectively, taking into account the standard deviation. The dominant species were those whose number and biomass was 10% or more of the total value. The Simpson dominance index (S) was used to estimate the degree of dominance of individual species. Assessment of saprobity of waters was carried out by the method of Pantle and Bucc in the modification of Sladechek, using known indicator values of saprobity of individual species. The general state of ecosystems of the studied lakes was analyzed on the basis of the qualitative composition and quantitative development of phytoplankton from 2013 to 2014. In all lakes, the species richness of phytoplankton was quite high and contributed mainly by chlorophytes, diatoms and cyanoprokaryota species (See Table 3 and Fig. 1). Floristic analysis revealed signs of imbalance in lake ecosystems, probably caused by anthropogenic impact and/or lack of biogenic limitation (See Table 4). This situation is especially unfavorable for ecosystems of water bodies of protected nature areas. Ecological and geographical analysis did not reveal significant differences between the algal flora of the studied reservoirs (See Table 5). The level of similarity of the species composition of the studied reservoirs was quite high (See Table 6). Perhaps this was due not only to similar abiotic parameters of the environment, but also to a high level of identical anthropogenic load. Quantitative phytoplankton development was high in all water bodies, the highest one was observed in Lake Bolshoe Vasilievskoe, and the lowest in lake Gatnoe (See Fig. 3). According to average algal biomass over the study period, Lake Bolshoe Vasilievskoe corresponds to the hypertrophic state, while lakes Gatnoe and Yaitskoe are eutrophic. Phytoplankton species diversity and alignment were highest in lake Gatnoe, and smallest in lake Yaitskoe. According to saprobity, the studied water bodies were ?-mezosaprobic which corresponds to the water quality class III. Analysis of the floristic composition, the ratio of taxonomic ranks, indicators of quantitative development and the structure of the dominant species complex revealed signs of an imbalance in ecosystems and the development of ""oscillatory"" disease in all studied lakes, regardless of their conservation status due to anthropogenic impact and lack of biogenic restriction. © 2020 Tomsk State University.

The potential drivers of these outbreaks have been debated for more than 50 years, hindering effective management to limit their destructive impacts. Here, we show that fish biomass removal through commercial and recreational fisheries may be a major driver of CoTS population outbreaks. CoTS densities increase systematically with increasing fish biomass removal, including for known CoTS predators. Moreover, the biomass of fish species and families that influence CoTS densities are 1.4 to 2.1-fold higher on reefs within no-take marine reserves, while CoTS densities are 2.8-fold higher on reefs that are open to fishing, indicating the applicability of fisheries-based management to prevent CoTS outbreaks. Designing targeted fisheries management with consideration of CoTS population dynamics may offer a tangible and promising contribution to effectively reduce the detrimental impacts of CoTS outbreaks across the Indo-Pacific. © 2021, Crown.",,,,1,12,,Nat.

Since that time, NOAA and their partners at The Mariners' Museum (TMM) have undertaken a pioneering collaborative effort to promote the historical and cultural significance of this National Historical Landmark. Education and outreach initiatives form the backbone of this collaboration, including an award-winning exhibition and conservation laboratory at The Mariners' Museum, classroom initiatives, distance learning, and events and festivals around the country, all of which have introduced hundreds of thousands of people to the Monitor's story. The goals of this multi-pronged approach are to raise public awareness; encourage public involvement in resource protection; increase knowledge about maritime history, science, and technology; and expand ocean and climate literacy. This paper will examine the methods used by the partnership to achieve these goals and provide a template for best practices in maritime science and history education through a public-private partnership. The USS Monitor Center at The Mariners' Museum in Newport News, Virginia, is the official repository for all artifacts recovered from the Monitor National Marine Sanctuary and associated archives, and it is the central hub of all outreach and education. This 63,500 square foot facility contains the award-winning Ironclad Revolution exhibit, including conserved artifacts, immersive multimedia experiences, and re-created ship interiors. The Monitor Center also houses the Batten Conservation Laboratory, a state-of-the-art marine artifact conservation facility staffed by a team of international experts. NOAA and TMM designed the lab for maximum visitor interplay by incorporating massive viewing platforms and windows into the lab, a series of live web cameras, and periodically offering behind-the-scenes tours. The regular transition of conserved artifacts from the lab into the gallery also allows for a dynamic visitor experience over time. The Monitor Center increases TMM's international profile and simultaneously promotes NOAA's objectives of public awareness of this precious national resource and increases the historical, cultural, and scientific knowledge of mankind's interaction with the ocean. NOAA continues to work with other regional organizations in an education and outreach capacity to tell the USS Monitor's story to a broader audience. These other partners, including the Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum, North Carolina Aquarium, and Civil War Naval Museum, ultimately engage and encourage the public to visit The Mariners' Museum for a deeper learning and entertainment experience. NOAA is also working with its partners to promote a USS Monitor Trail. Although still in development, this interactive tool will allow people to trace Monitor's story and history from Buffalo, NY to the Hudson Valley and all the way down the East Coast to Hampton Roads where Monitor battled the Confederate ironclad CSS Virginia and ultimately to the ship's final resting place within the Monitor National Marine Sanctuary off Hatteras, NC. The Monitor Trail has the potential to link people who previously had little or no understanding of the ironclad to the key locations of the country responsible for transforming the Monitor from a series of conceptual sketches into the savior of the Union Navy and future of naval technology. TMM and NOAA are using other traditional and technologically advanced methods of education and outreach. Experts in the fields of history, science, conservation, and technology offer formal and informal educational programs to groups of all ages. Museum and sanctuary visitors, school systems, lifelong learning groups, and other sanctuary constituents are primary audiences. Distance learning is utilized to target groups outside of the region. A robust interactive video conferencing (IVC) facility allows TMM and NOAA to reach national and international audiences. To date, IVC programs have reached thousands of students in 29 states and 6 countries. Using the Monitor's historical significance as the entry point, NOAA and TMM are able to introduce concepts that transcend a single vessel or moment in time. While the primary purpose for recovering over 1,500 artifacts from the Monitor National Marine Sanctuary was to make Monitor's story accessible to the widest possible audience, it was never intended to be purely a maritime historical story. By pursuing an integrated and immersive educational and outreach experience, TMM and NOAA have pioneered a comprehensive approach to promote awareness and protection not only of the Monitor National Marine Sanctuary's natural and cultural resources, but also that of our nation's oceans. © 2012 IEEE.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: OCEANS MTS/IEEE: Harnessing Power Ocean,,,,Distance education; education; Education; Education computing; Engineering education; Laboratories; marine archaeology; Marine archaeology; Mariners; Mariners'; Mariners' Museum; Monitor National Marine Sanctuary; Multimedia systems; Museum; Museums; National marine sanctuaries; NOAA; Oceanography; outreach; Recovery; Ships; Softwoods; USS Monitor; Video conferencing,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,OCEANS 2012 MTS/IEEE: Harnessing the Power of the Ocean,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, there is a lack of quantitative methods to incorporate larval dispersal in support of increasingly diverse management objectives, including local population persistence under multiple types of threats (primarily focused on larval retention within and dispersal between protected locations) and benefits to unprotected populations and fisheries (primarily focused on larval export from protected locations to fishing grounds). Here, we present a flexible MPA design approach that can reconcile multiple such potentially conflicting management objectives by balancing various associated treatments of larval dispersal information. We demonstrate our approach based on alternative dispersal patterns, combinations of threats to populations, management objectives, and two different optimization strategies (site vs. network-based). Our outcomes highlight a consistently high effectiveness in selecting priority locations that are self-replenishing, inter-connected, and/or important larval sources. We find that the opportunity to balance these three dispersal attributes flexibly can help not only to prevent meta-population collapse, but also to ensure effective fisheries recovery, with average increases in the number of recruits at fishing grounds at least two times higher than achieved by standard habitat-based or ad-hoc MPA designs. Future applications of our MPA design approach should therefore be encouraged, specifically where management tools other than MPAs are not feasible. © 2017 by the Ecological Society of America.",,925-941,,3,27,,Ecol.

A boost in availability of larval dispersal data from biophysical simulations has therefore led to routine calculations of population connectivity metrics that are used for area-based management decision support, including the placement of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). However, connectivity-based decision support for area-based management is often complex, highly uncertain, and the associated conservation impact rarely if ever evaluated. In combination, these challenges risk stakeholder engagement, compliance, and overall management effectiveness. Here we use a case study representing multiple key fishery species on coral reefs in Indonesia to demonstrate that consideration of larval dispersal for MPA placement decision support could be critical to recover both fish populations and fisheries from depletion, thereby mitigating potentially severe impacts on coastal communities. Importantly, we further show that MPA placement decisions can be effective even if based on comparatively simple and empirically measurable dispersal characteristics. Maximizing larval export, expressed as the contribution of larvae from MPA candidate sites to total larval settlement in surrounding areas, for example, was found to be a broadly beneficial MPA placement prioritization approach. Across investigated fish families with diverse life histories, this strategy resulted in MPA network designs that increased catches by a factor of 1.3 ± 0.3 (mean ± SD) and total fish biomass by a factor of 3.2 ± 0.3 (9.7 ± 1.2 in no-fishing areas and 1.4 ± 0.3 in fished areas) compared to conditions without effectively managed or protected areas. Our findings are relevant for both the implementation and impact evaluation of global marine conservation policies, specifically in tropical biodiversity hotspots, such as Indonesia, where coral reefs are often overfished and increasingly threatened but local communities highly dependent on sustainable fisheries. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,144,,Mar.

In this paper, we demonstrate the utility of a Bayesian Belief Network (BN) approach in comprehensively capturing and assessing the intricate spatial dynamics within the German plaice-related fisheries SES. The BN integrates ecological, economic, and socio-cultural factors to generate high-resolution maps of profitability and adaptive capacity potential (ACP) as prospective management targets. Our analysis of future scenarios, delineating changes in spatial constraints, economics, and socio-cultural aspects, identifies factors that will exert significant influence on this fisheries SES in the near future. These include the loss of fishing grounds due to the installation of offshore wind farms and marine protected areas, as well as reduced plaice landings due to climate change. The identified ACP hotspots hold the potential to guide the development of localized management strategies and sustainable planning efforts by highlighting the consequences of management decisions. Our findings emphasize the need to consider detailed spatial dynamics of fisheries SES within marine spatial planning (MSP) and illustrate how this information may assist decision-makers and practitioners in area prioritization. We, therefore, propose adopting the concept of fisheries SES within broader integrated management approaches to foster sustainable development of inherently dynamic SES in a rapidly evolving marine environment. © 2024",,,,,357,,J.

Following this trend the global fish production has grown impressively and it is believed that the increasing trend of animal protein demand will continue in both developing and developed countries. Over 90% of fish products on the international market are traded in the processed form. Fish processing industry is one of the most important industrial sectors in Croatia. Despite this, effective regulations regarding emission limit values for wastewater (NN 087/2010) do not specify values for fish processing industry. Moreover, monitoring reports from Croatian fish processing plants suggest that wastewaters have significantly high concentrations of chlorides and very high concentration of biological and chemical oxygen demand. For this reason it is necessary to perform detailed study in order to establish specific effluent values for different parameters, considering effective emission standards set by EU Directives (76/464/EEC, 91/271/EEC and 2000/60/EC) and international emission guidelines for the management of wastewaters from the fish processing plants. Fish processing plants are situated on islands, in coastal and hinterland region including sensitive water protected areas, which requires specific solutions for each one. This paper reviews this problem and suggests its possible solution through microzonation and elaboration of specific studies for every single area, in order to consider all peculiarities of different plant locations. Helping the fish processing facilities to meet the environmental management objectives for sustainable development and good status of wastewater, values for some parameters are suggested as suitable limits to be considered for the complementation of the regulations, taking into account the location and wastewater discharges in urban wastewater treatment plants, specific discharge recipients and receiving local water bodies.",,23-27,,,,,,,,,,,"Croatian Society of Food Technologists, Biotechnologists and Nutritionists",,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Int.

We quantified the degree to which MPA establishment has targeted stoppable threats (i.e., threats that can be abated through effectively managed MPAs alone) by combining spatially explicit marine biodiversity threat data in 2008 and 2013 and information on the location and potential of MPAs to halt threats. We calculated an impact metric to determine whether countries are protecting proportionally more high- or low-threat ecoregions and compared observed values with random protected-area allocation. We found that protection covered <2% of ecoregions in national waters with high levels of abatable threat in 2013, which is ?59% less protection in high-threat areas than if MPAs had been placed randomly. Relatively low-threat ecoregions had 6.3 times more strict protection (International Union for Conservation of Nature categories I–II) than high-threat ecoregions. Thirty-one ecoregions had high levels of stoppable threat but very low protection, which presents opportunities for MPAs to yield more significant near-term conservation benefits. The extent of the global MPA estate has increased, but the establishment of MPAs where they can reduce threats that are driving biodiversity loss is now urgently needed. © 2019 The Authors.

We found moderate yet increasing cumulative human impacts across most existing sites, and high or very high impacts across the majority of tentative sites. Climate change impacts comprised nearly 75% of impact scores, on average, and differences between land- and marine-based impacts across sites could help prioritise management decisions. Over 75% of marine ecoregions and 80% of ‘at-risk’ species considered in this study have no representation within the existing sites.

This global mandate translates into programmes in the field tailored to the member states' specific requirements that build on the full breadth of expertise available in UNESCO. Environmental awareness building is an integral component of many of UNESCO's programmes. This paper describes how UNESCO addresses the need for awareness building in a variety of settings under different programmes and sectors. A first example is taken from the work of the education sector, which aims at introducing innovative learning methods and curricula that change or cultivate the perspective of people of all ages on sustainable development. The second example is taken from the Man and Biosphere Programme. The Biosphere Reserve concept has had a long history within UNESCO and is increasingly applied to protected areas in the coastal zone. Notable examples are Ranong Biosphere Reserve in Thailand, Can Gio Biosphere Reserve in Vietnam and the Island of Palawan in the Philippines. The concept is currently experiencing a revival as more and more countries realize the importance of striking a balance between human development and strict conservation. Many people know about UNESCO through the so-called World Heritage Sites. These are sites that are recognized by the world community as particular monuments, either natural or cultural, that warrant preservation for the whole of mankind. In the Asia-Pacific region, there are quite a number of coastal and marine sites that have been designated as natural world heritage sites, e.g. Halong Bay in Vietnam, the Komodo marine national park, Indonesia, the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, East-Rennell Island in the Solomon Islands, and Tubbataha Reef in the Philippines. The need for a cross-sectoral approach is evident under the so-called Coastal Zone and Small Islands endeavour, which aims at assisting Member States towards environmentally sound, socially equitable and culturally appropriate development in coastal regions and in small islands. Four examples of current pilot projects (Surin Island, Thailand, Jakarta Bay, Indonesia, Upolo Island, Samoa and Ulugan Bay, the Philippines) are highlighted. Each setting and each audience requires a different strategy. UNESCO's strength is to learn from all these experiences and make such new insights universally available and to put novel concepts into practice. © 2003 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.",,265-272,,,47,,Mar.

Orans are patches of community forests of religious and spiritual significance, often associated with a temple or a legend.

They serve as a reserve for grazing, forest products, water infiltration and as a coping mechanism for climate change in arid regions. This study is the first to combine grass-roots level data collection into a database enabling the mapping and analysis of Orans in Bikaner district in Rajasthan’s Thar desert. It generates new insights into the distribution, differences and similarities among Orans and associated traditional values and practices vs. the challenges and threats they face due to a lack of legal protection.

This leads to a greater risk of disaster and, in turn, natural hazards that can further deteriorate the environment. The deterioration of the capacity of the environment to meet social and ecological aims and demands is described as environmental degradation. This degradation and the concomitant reduction of ecosystems and their irreplaceable services (the benefits humans gain) are driving disaster risk. Changes to the environment can alter the frequency and intensity of risks, as well as our exposure and sensitivity to these hazards. Addressing these issues requires improvement of the capacity to perform short and medium-term operations in disaster management based on long-term environmental considerations. At the local level, minimizing environmental degradation and ecosystem loss involves awareness of the links between unsustainable development and poverty. Communities are often driven to ruin their natural environment as a short-term coping mechanism for dealing with immediate issues; for instance, surviving a bad harvest by selling wood. Strategies for decreasing poverty by investing in environment-sensitive development should therefore support initiatives to minimize disaster risk and build resilience. There are common aspects in successful policies throughout various regions at the policy level, which extends to controlling climate change. Tools such as integrated water resources and coastal zone management, the removal of environmentally harmful subsidies, especially on fossil fuels and/or carbon taxes, renewable energy, marine protected areas, and cross-boundary biodiversity conservation, are all examples of policies used in more than one region but customized to each context. This scoping study finds and assesses available materials that relate environmental challenges and management with catastrophes and risk reduction activities in the Asia-Pacific area. This volume's analysis relies on case studies, examples, and the results of questionnaires and interviews of practitioners and organizations operating in the environment, disaster, and development domains. © 2024 Scrivener Publishing LLC.",,,1,,,,,,Disaster Management and Environmental Sustainability,,,,wiley,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Disaster Management and Environmental Sustainability Pages: 275 Publication Title: Disaster Management and Environmental Sustainability,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Impaired population recovery might be associated with a demographic Allee effect. Immigration from adjacent populations could accelerate the recovery not only by promoting population growth beyond the Allee effect threshold but also by bringing in advantageous genotypes. We explore the nature and role of ecological and evolutionary rescue in an Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua Gadidae) population fished below its Allee effect threshold. We utilize an eco-evolutionary model and simulate scenarios, where the target population evolves in response to selective fishing and sample immigrants from (a) a source population similarly adapted to fishing (post-fishing genotypes) or (b) an unexploited source population with natural genetic and phenotypic diversity (pre-fishing genotypes). Immigration of pre-fishing genotypes enhances the recovery due to the larger body sizes and the flow of associated genes. Post-fishing immigrants can also promote the population abundance recovery, but they increase uncertainty about recovery times as compared to pre-fishing immigrants and do not promote evolutionary recovery. Our results stress the importance of maintaining genetic and phenotypic diversity and suggest that marine protected areas can serve as an important source of immigrants to promote both the demographic and evolutionary recovery of exploited populations. © 2020 The Authors.

Despite the tremendous ecological and economic importance and the existence of a policy and regulatory framework, migratory marine species are under threat. Numerous direct and indirect pressures arising from different types of economic development and associated activities, climate change, etc. are having impacts on dugongs and sea turtles. Dugong distribution in islands is mainly governed by the availability of seagrass meadows that are smaller in size and highly fragmented. Fishing and tourism activities in their habitats need to be sustainably managed. Similarly, Andaman and Nicobar Islands are one of the most critical regions for sea turtles in the country especially for leatherback and hawksbill turtles. Increased egg predation by wild pigs, domestic and feral dogs, hunting and incidental capture of turtles and fisheryrelated mortality have been widely reported in the islands. The government of ANI has initiated several conservation measures to recover endangered sea turtles and dugongs in the islands with participations of all concerned stakeholders including local communities. It is believed that illegal capture of dugongs has been reduced in islands, and reporting of dugongs has also increased. Most importantly, more than ten dugongs have been saved from fishing entanglements and poaching, which are an indication of success of ongoing recovery programme. However, few more critical habitats of dugongs and other marine mammals need to be declared as marine protected areas to secure the future livelihoods of local communities. With a successful integrated participatory approach, the ongoing programme should continue in phases for the next 30 years for recovering the dwindling dugong populations and seagrass habitats in the country. It is important to have a seascape level planning to mainstream marine mammals’ conservation (including dugongs) into various production sectors especially tourism and fisheries in the South Andaman Important Marine Mammals Area (IMMA). The main objectives of the sea turtle conservation action plan of Andaman and Nicobar Islands should facilitate the prevention of man-made mortalities of four species of marine turtles that breed on and around islands and to monitor, protect and manage all nesting and breeding habitats of these four species in the island by 2025. There is a lot of scope to enhance the success rate of nests up to 90% with a turtle conservation planning especially protecting nests from these predators. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2023.",,357-373,,,,,,,,,,,Springer Nature,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Faunal Ecology and Conservation of the Great Nicobar Biosphere Reserve DOI: 10.1007/978-981-19-5158-9_17,,,,Andaman; Biosphere; Conservation; Dugong; Threatened animals; Turtle,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Inland capture fisheries provide opportunities to demonstrate an integration of conservation and livelihood objectives when managed as a social-ecological system. While numerous marine no-take reserves have been found effective for the recovery of fisheries, few well-documented examples exist in the freshwater realm. Research gaps also remain in the role of co-management in balancing various management objectives and resolving conflicts. This paper offers critical reflection on adaptive co-management of fish conservation zones (FCZs) in the Mekong River in Cambodia and its social-ecological outcomes as perceived by local stakeholders. The management approach was found generally effective for the local stakeholders to negotiate between conservation and livelihood objectives at key stages of the implementation, and resolve conflicts; however, the lessons learned were not uniform across all sites. The degree of difficulty in conflict resolution was mainly a function of the fishing dependency of local communities on the protected site, the prevalence of severe poverty in adjacent villages, and the availability of livelihood options other than fishing. Growing stakeholder perception over time, of the FCZs as yielding positive outcomes—for both conservation and livelihood—motivated the local communities to create more FCZs. We argue clear recognition by local stakeholders of the achievements and the fairness in the FCZ management, facilitated through participatory approaches, can improve their acceptance of conservation rules and enhance their effectiveness. However, long-term mechanisms to support these community initiatives technically and financially are needed. Simple yet scientifically robust approaches for tropical freshwater fisheries monitoring, including periodical assessments of indicator species, are also needed to facilitate performance evaluation of specific management measures locally. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,265,,Fish.

Tourism development is considered a contribution to pollution levels in the environment. This paper aims to evaluate the hypothetical effects of tourism development on water quality spatially and temporally using the coastal water quality index (CWQI) and Geographic Information System (GIS) in search of improved management for marine conservation areas. This study showed significant tourism influences on the CWQI in the Marine Tourism Park of the Gili Matra Islands, Lombok, Indonesia. Water quality variability indicates a significant spatiotemporal difference (p < 0.05) in the two tourism seasons. During the peak season of tourism, the CWQI decreased to poor conditions, i.e., ranging from 9.95 to 21.49 for marine biota and from 7.98 to 30.42 for marine tourism activities in 2013, and ranging from 39.52 to 44.42 for marine biota and from 44.13 to 47.28 for marine tourism activities, which were below the standard for both marine biota and marine tourism activities. On the contrary, it showed a better level (from poor to moderate) during the low season of tourism (ranging from 41.92 to 61.84 for marine biota and from 48.06 to 65.27 for marine tourism activities in 2014), providing a more acceptable condition for both aspects. The study proved that massive tourism development in the MPA and small islands could reduce water quality and increase vulnerability. Accordingly, integrated tourism management and the environment, waters, and land will be needed to develop sustainable tourism. The CWQI and GIS were applicable to assess water quality, both spatially and temporally, and become a quick reference in monitoring and initial evaluation of impact management. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,7959-7985,,8,25,,Environ.

The coastal dunes of Israel are characterized by diverse plant communities, with 173 plant species occuring on sand (8.2 % of the total flora of Israel) including many endemic species (26 % of all endemic species in Israel). Most of the species are annuals. The importance of the coastal strip as a centre of floral and faunal speciation is also manifested in the existing sand-bound animals. However, many species are rare. This is mainly due to the extensive industrial and urban development along the coastal plain and the direct and indirect destruction of the remaining open dune areas by tourism, recreation and sand mining. Only ca. 17 % of the Israeli coastal dunes are still of good or reasonable ecological value, while <5 % of this area has been designated as protected area. Management policies differ from place to place and depend on local objectives. These objectives derive mainly from the knowledge and data that exist for each location, and its statutory status.

Policy drivers and objectives that are assumed to affect coexistence, such as the fulfillment of conservation objectives and the prioritization of other competing marine uses, were scored by experts and predictions were crosschecked with state practice. While in most areas MRE-MPA coexistence is not prohibited by law, practice indicates resistance towards it. Furthermore expert judgment demonstrated that a number of additional factors, such as the lack of suitable space for MRE projects and the uncertainty about the extent of damage by MRE to the MPA, might influence the intentions of the two major parties involved (i.e. the MRE developer and the MPA authority) to pursue or avoid coexistence.

The need for NC to be integrated in the marine spatial planning (MSP) decision-making process is highlighted in various initiatives around the world. However none of these initiatives describes a commonly applicable framework to achieve this goal. The plethora of interpretations regarding the meaning, role and position of NC in planning, makes such an attempt more complex. A good starting point in order to develop such a process is to answer the question: how NC can contribute to the achievement of sustainability in the context of MSP? In the present study the different ways that NC has been interpreted over time are explored and several definitions are analyzed, concluding that there is currently no common approach to NC in MSP initiatives. Therefore it is indicated that NC should be treated as a means to achieve good environmental status of the ecosystem, based on its spatial, economic and conflict resolution dimensions, characteristics that are common among all marine uses. Consequently, it is proposed that NC at sea should be put in a central position during the MSP processes.

The soundscape analysis, in terms of collection and analysis of acoustic signals, has been proposed as a tool to evaluate the specific features of ecological assemblages and to estimate their acoustic variability over space and time. This study aimed to characterise the Capo Caccia-Isola Piana Marine Protected Area (Italy, Western Mediterranean Sea) soundscape over short temporal (few days) and spatial scales (few km) and to quantify the main anthropogenic and biological components, with a focus on fish biophonies. Methods: Within the MPA, three sites were chosen each in a different protection zone (A for the integral protection, B as the partial protection, and C as the general protection). In each site, two underwater autonomous acoustic recorders were deployed in July 2020 at a depth of about 10 m on rocky bottoms. To characterise the contribution of both biophonies and anthrophonies, sea ambient noise (SAN) levels were measured as sound pressure level (SPL dB re: 1 m Pa-rms) at eight 1/3 octave bands, centred from 125 Hz to 16 kHz, and biological and anthropogenic sounds were noted. Fish sounds were classified and counted following a catalogue of known fish sounds from the Mediterranean Sea based on the acoustic characteristic of sound types. A contemporary fish visual census had been carried out at the test sites. Results: SPL were different by site, time (day vs. night), and hour. SPLs bands centred at 125, 250, and 500 Hz were significantly higher in the daytime, due to the high number of boats per minute whose noise dominated the soundscapes. The loudest man-made noise was found in the A zone, followed by the B and the C zone, confirming that MPA current regulations do not provide protection from acoustic pollution. The dominant biological components of the MPA soundscape were the impulsive sounds generated by some invertebrates, snapping shrimps and fish. The vast majority of fish sounds were recorded at the MPA site characterized by the highest sound richness, abundance, and Shannon-Wiener index, coherently with the results of a fish visual census. Moreover, the acoustic monitoring detected a sound associated with a cryptic species (Ophidion spp.) never reported in the study area before, further demonstrating the usefulness of passive acoustic monitoring as a complementary technique to species census. This study provides baseline data to detect future changes of the marine soundscapes and some suggestions to reduce the impact of noise on marine biodiversity. © 2021 PeerJ Inc..

Nevertheless, SACs may fail in their scope when design and management are not dynamically adapted to meet ecological principles. Knowledge of the spatial distribution of relevant key species, such as common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus), is crucial in order to achieve the objective of the Habitat Directive (92/43/EEC), and is a fundamental step in the process of Marine Spatial Planning. From this perspective, new data and analysis are required to produce forecasts at spatio-temporal scales relevant to individual organisms. Here, we propose a study based on a MaxEnt modelling exercise to define the spatial distributional patterns of bottlenose dolphin at different temporal scales (over periods of multiple months and years) to increase the ecological understanding of how the species use the eco-space, and to delimit boundaries of a SAC in the waters surrounding Lampedusa Island, a hotspot for cetaceans in the Southern Mediterranean Sea. We show that bottlenose dolphin prefer shallower feeding grounds that often host complex and rich food webs, but also that this preference is constrained by disturbance factors such as boat traffic. As sea-related tourism, including dolphin-watching, is one of the most important economic activities of the island, the study results can be used from a management perspective, in order to reach a solution regarding two apparently conflicting needs - species protection and economic development. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,317-327,,,130,,Ocean Coast.

Such indicators are key tools for marine spatial planning, a process that identifies and resolves conflicts between human uses and the conservation of marine environments. The common bottlenose dolphin in the Mediterranean Sea is considered a vulnerable species by the IUCN Red List and a priority species of the EU Habitat Directive. Here, we estimated spatio-temporal patterns of the species occurrence in the area around one Marine Protected Area (MPA) and two Sites of Community Importance (SCI) of the North western Sardinia, with the aim to predict the species distribution and the main links with the environmental factors and boat traffic. To evaluate whether dolphin groups with calves showed any habitat preference different from groups without calves, separate models for both type of groups were done. The most important contributing variables to the dolphin habitat suitability models were the likelihood of boat presence, habitat type and mean sea surface temperature. Different model outputs were obtained depending on dolphin group composition. The area of high likelihood of dolphin presence ranged between 30 and 60 km2 and was smaller for groups with calves. Further, the area of highest dolphin habitat suitability overlaps with the area of high boat traffic, suggesting that boating in the study site is a potential relevant anthropogenic threat to dolphins. Particularly, boating is concentrated inside and around the MPA/SCIs, indicating the need for stronger restriction measures. We propose updated SCI boundaries for effective protection of common bottlenose dolphins. These areas and the suggestions of regulation are specifically aimed at reducing the impact of boating on dolphins, especially for groups with calves. Synthesis and applications. Management measures should be designed based on the data here provided, and then implemented and enforced to decrease dolphin-boat interactions, especially for mother-calf pairs. The creation of new coastal SCIs should be considered especially where boat traffic overlaps with areas most suitable for dolphins. In these SCIs, boating should be managed to limit disturbance, avoidance or alterations of dolphin vital behavior. © Copyright © 2020 La Manna, Ronchetti, Sarŕ, Ruiu and Ceccherelli.",,,,,7,,Front.

Movements of an important recreational target species from the Mediterranean Sea, the parrotfish Sparisoma cretense, were determined in a marine protected area using passive acoustic telemetry, to evaluate site fidelity and homing, quantify home range and identify temporal patterns. Six adult parrotfish (20.8-29.8 cm total length) were caught along the north-eastern coast of Lampedusa (Italy) and surgically implanted with acoustic transmitters. Three fish were caught and released at the same site within the integral (i.e. "" no entry-no take"" ) reserve, whereas the others were caught outside the reserve boundary and released at the mid reserve 0.5 km apart. Two of the three fish that were released away from the capture site demonstrated homing abilities. Four fish showed a strong site fidelity, whereas the others moved frequently in and out of the monitoring area. Home range sizes estimated over the period of monitoring (up to 207 days) varied from 70,387 to 256,398 m2, with core areas of 16,688 to 84,946 m2. Home range size did not differ significantly between day and night. Home ranges of all fish extended beyond the reserve boundaries, showing example of potential spillover into take zones. Temporal activity patterns of fish were diurnal with a dominant diel rhythm, likely due to a resting behaviour at night. Though not specifically designed to protect exploited fish, the marine reserve of Lampedusa seems adequate for the conservation and management of S. cretense. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,59-68,,,82,,Mar.

Within MPAs, fishing closure areas are among the most used small-scale fishery management tools, even though their effectiveness largely remains untested or controversial. To reduce the impact of small-scale fisheries on marine resources, a seasonal fishing closure area (SFCA) was established beginning in 2022 in autumn–winter season inside the Capo Caccia–Isola Piana MPA (Sardinia, northwestern Mediterranean Sea). Here, we assessed a posteriori whether the areas of higher habitat suitability for eight species/taxa of relevant ecological value and economic interest to small-scale fisheries were included in the established SFCA, adequately meeting the ecological objectives of the MPA. Thus, landing data (from 2019 to 2023) were used as occurrence records to develop MaxEnt distribution models for the eight target species/taxa. The model outputs allow us to draw important insights about the spatial adequacy of the SFCA established within the MPA aimed to protect the most exploited marine resources. Furthermore, the modeling exercises were useful for understanding the local processes influencing species' habitat selection and to identify essential areas for the target species that could remain unrevealed in larger-scale investigations. © 2024 The Author(s).

Data from citizen science initiatives are useful for quantifying species' ecological niches and geographical distributions but can be difficult to apply towards biodiversity monitoring. The presence of fixed geographical locations reduces the opportunistic nature of citizen science data, allowing for more reliable and nuanced trend estimation. The eBird citizen-science program contains predefined locations whose bird assemblages are sampled across years (‘hotspots’). For hotspots to function as a biodiversity monitoring resource, issues related to data coverage, biases, and trends need to be addressed. Location: Global. Methods: We estimated the survey completeness of species richness at 300,500 eBird hotspots during 2002–2022. We documented sampling biases at eBird hotspot and non-hotspot locations during 2022 based on protection status, temperature, precipitation, and landcover. Results: A total of 10,410 bird species (ca. 96.9% of total) were recorded at hotspots. The number of hotspots, checklists, and participants and the quality of species richness estimates increased worldwide with the Nearctic containing the strongest and most consistent trends. Compared to non-hotspots, hotspots oversampled areas with higher protection status. Hotspots and non-hotspots oversampled warmer and wetter locations in the Antarctic, Nearctic, and Palearctic, and cooler locations in the Afrotropics, Australasia, and the Neotropics. Hotspots and especially non-hotspots oversampled urban areas. Hotspots and non-hotspots undersampled shrublands in Australasia. Hotspots and especially non-hotspots undersampled forests in the Afrotropics, Indomalaya, Neotropics, and Oceania. Main Conclusions: Hotspots have captured a large component of the world's avian diversity but have done so inconsistently across space and time. Data quantity and quality are increasing in many regions, but the presence of regionally specific sampling biases and spatial uncertainty in hotspot locations should be addressed when applying the data. © 2024 The Author(s).

Skeels is an Algerian-Moroccan endemic tree. This species is part of various plant communities consisting of Mediterranean, Macaronesian and Saharan floristic elements. It has been introduced and perhaps sometimes naturalized in various regions of the Mediterranean basin. Due to its role in combating desertification, high socio-economic value, and traditional use as fodder and food, the southwestern Moroccan argan grove (Arganeraie) was declared Biosphere Reserve. It had already been subject to conservation and reforestation programs a century earlier. Its cultivation for oil production could be, besides an economic objective, an effective method to conserve its genetic diversity. Therefore, this study aims to estimate its potential distribution and establish efficient breeding programs by determining its ecological requirements, identifying its different habitats, and predicting habitat suitability models for Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Spain. Using 53 occurrence points, wind speed and direction data, and 29 bioclimatic variables, multivariate methods were applied to describe the ecological profiles and characterize the heterogeneity of its habitat to subsequently, train a Maxent model that establishes, besides Morocco and Algeria, suitable cultivation areas in Tunisia and Spain. The North African potential area is limited to the western Mediterranean coast of Algeria and flat and coastal areas of eastern Tunisia. The increased likelihood of suitability remains in the southeast Iberian Peninsula. A high probability of argan cultivation is also evident in the Canary Islands. These results provide possibilities for future expansion of argan crop and a window of opportunity to improve its genetic diversity and conservation. © 2021, The Author(s).",,,,1,22,,Reg. Environ.

The goal of this study was to assess the body condition of American crocodiles Crocodylus acutus of Cozumel and Banco Chinchorro islands, Mexico, and use it as a tool to better understand short- and long-term effects of hurricanes on crocodilian populations. Changes in body condition (Fulton's K) of 392 crocodiles, captured between 2003 and 2015, were assessed and analyzed in response to a major hurricane through different environmental factors. Differences among populations and size classes, and between sexes, together with seasonal variation, were also evaluated. The body condition of crocodiles was generally good, with better condition for Banco Chinchorro, suggesting that these populations and the ecosystems they inhabit are healthy. Body condition for hatchlings and adults was higher than for other classes, with adults exhibiting the best condition. Body condition of Banco Chinchorro individuals varied seasonally, responding to reproductive events and environmental parameter fluctuations. We also found that C. acutus body condition is sensitive to the passage of tropical cyclones, most likely through their effects on salinity, temperature, and prey availability. Tropical cyclones have a 2-fold effect on populations. In the short-term, crocodile health is negatively affected by disturbance, while the species seems to maintain and improve its body condition over the longer term. An increase in strong tropical cyclone frequency could impede the recovery of populations, while causing a continual decrease in crocodile body condition. © Inter-Research 2020 · www.int-res.com",,145-162,,,651,,Mar.

Natural variability should be considered in the design, ideally determined using baseline information collected at the scale of the closure. Monitoring benthos informs on general ecosystem state. Benthic habitat maps are widely used as surrogates of benthos in marine spatial planning, and could potentially be used to inform monitoring by minimizing confounding habitat effects. Here, epibenthic diversity was assessed in the St. Anns Bank MPA in Atlantic Canada, the first assessment of benthic patterns at the scale of this closure. Epibenthic assemblages were determined using a photographic camera system along a single transect (~100–150 m in length) at 44 locations in 2013 and 2014 (with 10 or 11 images per location, providing a total of 438 images), prior to the designation of the MPA. Epibenthic patterns were correlated with a previously developed benthic habitat (benthoscape) map to determine the potential of using benthoscape classes as units for monitoring. Hierarchical agglomerative clustering of epibenthic assemblages and similarity profile analysis revealed five clusters of assemblages in the MPA (P < 0.01), each of which were associated with specific indicator taxa. Some clusters of assemblages correlated well with distinct benthoscape classes representing either hard/coarse (gravel) or soft sediment (sand and mud), whereas clusters associated with mixed sediment segregated spatially. The within-cluster variability in assemblages between locations was lower overall than within the management zones, but differed between clusters. Similarities were detected with previous coarser-scale assessments of epibenthic diversity in the St. Anns Bank MPA, but this study revealed a more complex benthic structure than previously thought. A monitoring design should thus consider this natural variability to reliably monitor change and aid in determining the effectiveness of the MPA. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,938-951,,6,29,,Aquatic Conserv.

The bathymetric and backscatter information generated by MBES enables marine scientists to present highly accurate bathymetric data with a spatial resolution closely matching that of terrestrial mapping, and can generate customized thematic seafloor maps to meet multiple ocean management needs. However, when a variety of MBES systems are used, the creation of objective habitat maps can be hindered by the lack of backscatter calibration, due for example, to system-specific settings, yielding relative rather than absolute values. Here, we describe an approach using object-based image analysis to combine 4 non-overlapping and uncalibrated (backscatter) MBES coverages to form a seamless habitat map on St. Anns Bank (Atlantic Canada), a marine protected area hosting a diversity of benthic habitats. The benthoscape map was produced by analysing each coverage independently with supervised classification (k-nearest neighbor) of image-objects based on a common suite of 7 benthoscapes (determined with 4214 ground-truthing photographs at 61 stations, and characterized with backscatter, bathymetry, and bathymetric position index). Manual re-classification based on uncertainty in membership values to individual classes—especially at the boundaries between coverages—was used to build the final benthoscape map. Given the costs and scarcity of MBES surveys in offshore marine ecosystems—particularly in large ecosystems in need of adequate conservation strategies, such as in Canadian waters—developing approaches to synthesize multiple datasets to meet management needs is warranted. © 2017, Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,307-322,,01-Feb,39,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Netherlands,,,,Atlantic Canada; Backscatter; Backscatter information; Backscattering; bathymetry; Bathymetry; benthos; Benthoscape; Conservation; Conservation strategies; Ecosystems; GRAIN-SIZE; habitat; Habitat mapping; Hydrographic surveys; Image analysis; IMAGE-ANALYSIS; MANAGEMENT; Mapping; MARINE; Multibeam echo sounder; Multibeam echosounder; Nearest neighbor search; Object based image analysis; SCALE PARAMETER; seafloor mapping; SEGMENTATION; SONAR; Supervised classification; Synthetic aperture sonar,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Managing to promote resilience is widely recognized as a priority for MPAs that focus on the conservation of coral reefs and the ecological services they provide. To this end, there is an acute need to develop and implement methods that assimilate monitoring results into comprehensive summaries that can be understood and acted upon by local management to promote resilience. We used the Parque Nacional Arrecife de Puerto Morelos (PNAPM) as a model MPA to evaluate the utility of a resilience index framework proposed by Maynard et al. (Coral Reefs 29:381-391, 2010b) that uses a suite of broad- and local-scale indicators to rank the relative resilience of sites. Based on monitoring data we identify local stressors adversely impacting coral reef resilience that can be influenced by management actions. Improving regulation enforcement, conducting targeted invasive species removals, reallocating and restricting tourist activities, and establishing nutrient level regulations were identified as realistic adaptive management actions to promote resilience within the PNAPM. This first application of the Maynard et al. (Coral Reefs 29:381-391, 2010b) resilience index framework to a Caribbean MPA provides an example for MPA managers of the value of their monitoring data and the utility of a broadly applicable management tool to assist in managerial decisions.

We are witnessing an increase in ocean heat, disturbance, acidification, bio-invasions and nutrients, and reducing oxygen levels. Several of these act like ratchets: once detrimental or negative changes have occurred, they may lock in place and may not be reversible, especially at gross ecological and ocean process scales. Each change may represent a loss to humanity of resources, ecosystem function, oxygen production and species. The longer we pursue unsuitable actions, the more we close the path to recovery and better ocean health and greater benefits for humanity in the future. We stand at a critical juncture and have identified eight priority issues that need to be addressed in unison to help avert a potential ecological disaster in the global ocean. They form a purposely ambitious agenda for global governance and are aimed at informing decision-makers at a high level. They should also be of interest to the general public. Of all the themes, the highest priority is to rigorously address global warming and limit surface temperature rise to 1.5°C by 2100, as warming is the pre-eminent factor driving change in the ocean. The other themes are establishing a robust and comprehensive High Seas Treaty, enforcing existing standards for Marine Protected Areas and expanding their coverage, especially in terms of high levels of protection, adopting a precautionary pause on deep-sea mining, ending overfishing and destructive fishing practices, radically reducing marine pollution, putting in place a financing mechanism for ocean management and protection, and lastly, scaling up science/data gathering and facilitating data sharing. By implementing all eight measures in unison, as a coordinated strategy, we can build resilience to climate change, help sustain fisheries productivity, particularly for low-income countries dependent on fisheries, protect coasts (e.g. via soft-engineering/habitat-based approaches), promote mitigation (e.g. carbon storage) and enable improved adaptation to rapid global change. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,194-208,,1,30,,Aquatic Conserv.

In the intervening period much action has been taken on creating protected areas as the key route to delivering area-based conservation of biodiversity and ecosystem services. Rather less attention has been paid to OECMs due in part to a lack of guidance on what areas should or should not be included under this label. An IUCN World Conservation Congress Resolution in 2012 called on IUCN's World Commission on Protected Areas (WCPA) to assist the CBD by providing technical guidance on interpretation of the wording in Aichi Biodiversity Target 11. IUCN WCPA established a Task Force in 2015 to provide guidance on OECMs, in terrestrial, freshwater and marine habitats. This Task Force has already met several times and has a global membership of more than 100 experts. The official call made by the CBD in 2016 for guidance explicitly recognizes the role of the IUCN Task Force in fulfilling this guidance need. This paper provides the background to OECMs and an initial analysis on the type and nature of measures that may qualify as OECMs under Aichi Target 11. Successful implementation will be dependent on clear principles and guidance, but also on a far better awareness among conservationists and other sectors on the purpose and scope of all 20 Aichi Targets. The paper will also be of value to discussions and implementation of Sustainable Development Goal 14 on the ocean. Some generic examples of areas likely to qualify as OECMs in the ocean are identified, along with an analysis of how OECMs complement and supplement fisheries and other management measures to promote more sustainable use. Greater recognition and reporting is needed on fisheries measures under Aichi Target 6. All fishery management and exclusion zones will not qualify as OECMs, but they can form essential measures towards achieving delivery of greater sustainability within such extractive industries.

The Convention on Biological Diversity, through the Aichi Target 11, has set the ambitious objective of implementing a 'well connected system of protected areas' by 2020.This paper identifies eight challenges toward the integration of connectivity into MPA network management and planning. A summary table lists the main recommendations in terms of method, tool, advice, or action to address each of these challenges. Authors belong to a science-management continuum including researchers, international NGO officers, and national MPA agency members.Three knowledge challenges are addressed: selecting and integrating connectivity measurement metrics; assessing the accuracy and uncertainty of connectivity measurements; and communicating and visualizing connectivity measurements.Three management challenges are described: integrating connectivity into the planning and management of MPA networks; setting quantitative connectivity targets; and implementing connectivity-based management across scales and marine jurisdictions.Finally, two paths toward a better integration of connectivity science with MPA management are proposed: setting management-driven priorities for connectivity research, bridging connectivity science, and MPA network management.There is no single method to integrate connectivity into marine spatial planning. Rather, an array of methods can be assembled according to the MPA network objectives, budget, available skills, data, and timeframe.Overall, setting up 'boundary organizations' should be promoted to organize complex cross-disciplinary, cross-sectoral and cross-jurisdiction interactions that are needed between scientists, managers, stakeholders and decision-makers to make informed decision regarding connectivity-based MPA planning and management. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,94-110,,S2,24,,Aquatic Conserv.

Mismatches in scale between the occurrence of biodiversity patterns and ecological processes, and the size and nature of the human footprint, and the different levels and scope of governance, are a significant challenge in conservation planning. These scale mismatches are further confounded by data resolution disparities across and amongst the different scales. To address this challenge, we developed a multi-resolution scale-linked marine spatial planning method. We tested this approach in the development of a Conservation Plan for a significant portion of South Africa’s exclusive economic zone, adjacent to the east coast province of KwaZulu-Natal (the SeaPlan project). The study’s dataset integrated the geographic distribution of 390 biodiversity elements (species, habitats, and oceanographic processes) and 38 human activities. A multi-resolution system of planning unit layers (PUL), with individual PUs ranging in resolution from 0.2 to 10 km, was designed to arrange and analyse these data. Spatial priorities for conservation were selected incrementally at different scales, contributing conservation targets from the fine-, medium- and large-scale analyses, and from the coast to the offshore. Compared to a basic single-resolution scale-unlinked plan, our multi-resolution scale-linked method selects 6% less conservation area to achieve the same targets. Compared to a multi-resolution scale-unlinked plan, our method requires only an additional 5% area. Overall, this method reflects the multi-scale nature of marine social-ecological systems more realistically, is relatively simple and replicable, and serves to better connect fine-scale and large-scale spatial management policies. We discuss the impacts of this study on protected area expansion planning processes in South Africa. This study showcases a methodological advance that has the potential to impact marine spatial planning practices and policies. © 2018 Lagabrielle et al.

Conservation challenges are intensified in insular systems due to higher ecosystem vulnerability, limited spatial options, low data availability, rapid land-use change and, globally, short-term vision planning. Our operational planning protocol integrates ecological and socio-economic factors to identify the best spatial options for conserving and restoring biodiversity, inside and outside extant reserves, while minimising future land-use conflicts. Conservation and restoration targets are formulated for species, habitats and ecological processes that support biodiversity. An optimal network of priority sites is selected to achieve those targets across the landscape. The prioritisation process integrates a Conservation Costs Index to optimise conservation and restoration investments. We discuss the outcomes of the planning protocol in terms of site prioritisation, stakeholders' participation and general implications for spatial planning in insular systems. As with many islands, the study area of Réunion Island has experienced rapid urban and agricultural expansion, which threatens its unique biodiversity. Forty three per cent of the island is currently protected in a National Park but only half of this reserve network contributes to the achievement of targets. An additional 21% of land should be conserved mainly to ensure the persistence of ecological connections between the marine, terrestrial and freshwater realms. Finally we emphasize that our method doesn't substitute the land-use planning debate but is aimed to better prepare the conservation sector for negotiating future land-use allocation with other socio-economic sectors in islands. © 2011 Elsevier B.V.",,120-130,,2,101,,Landsc.

However, the relationship tsunami waves-marine ecosystems remains unclear. During the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami (IOT), damage to coral reefs were surveyed in the Maldives. Coral reef system is essential for fisheries, tourism and represent a natural coastal protection against large waves events, so it is urgent to better understand how the IOT impacted such an ecosystem. First, we reproduce the tsunami hydrodynamic characteristics along the Maldivian shores using TUNAMI-N2 model. We then define a database gathering all the post-tsunami reef datapoints. Third, we develop fragility curves for the reefs that have been impacted by the tsunami, based on the Global Earthquake Model (GEM) guidelines, for the maximum amplitude and flow velocity of the IOT. For example, when the amplitude and the flow velocity are higher than 1 m and 1 m/s, the probability to impact the reefs is 50%. Finally, we present a reef vulnerability map in Malé City and one of its surrounding Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). This work is the first attempt to quantify the tsunami impact on coral reefs using fragility curves. Based on the 2004 IOT, we aim to provide a better understanding of the reef response during a tsunami attack.

Climate change metrics derived from future climate predictions help to assess potential impacts of climate change on biodiversity. Here we calculated future climate change velocities across biogeographical regions of terrestrial Europe and the Natura 2000 protected area network, the largest protected area network on Earth. We applied climate projections for the year 2070, considering two emission scenarios, six global climate models and a fine spatial resolution. Areas with very high climate change velocity were identified as climate change hotspots, while areas with very low velocity were recognized as coldspots. We further revealed where and to what extent climate change hotspots and coldspots coincide with Natura 2000 sites. We found that climate change velocities are projected highest in the Continental and Boreal regions, and lowest in the Mediterranean and Anatolian regions. However, the Alpine region will likely contain largest areal proportions of climate change hotspots, while areal proportions of coldspots are projected largest in the Mediterranean region. High mountain regions such as the Alps show a high proportion of Natura 2000 sites that coincide with climate change hotspots. Both, hotspots and coldspots, are geographically associated with areas of topographic diversity. Low topographical diversity indicates high climate change exposure. The impact of hotspots increases with spatial isolation. Oceanic climate buffers climate change exposure in contrast to continental climate. However, continental regions of Europe tend to exhibit less spatial isolation. We recommend conservation action in climate change hotspots and coldspots to simultaneously protect the most climate-exposed biodiversity as well as climate change refugia. Climate change hotspots and coldspots overlapping with Natura 2000 sites should be considered priority conservation sites because new protected areas are hard to realize in densely populated landscapes of Europe.

Our analysis shows that, although integration seems to be a key point in the planning agenda and in spite of some improvements, an integrated management approach in Mediterranean coastal and marine areas is still in its infancy. The results of the analysis show that, rather than contributing to building an integrated approach to marine and coastal zone management, each planning tool focuses on complying with its sectoral, normative framework.

To contrast such pressures, protected coastal and marine areas have been promoted and established. This adds a further layer of complexity in areas where multiple (often competing and conflicting) uses coexist, each planned and regulated on its own. Hence, integration between planning tools in coastal areas represents a key issue, in particular in the Mediterranean basin, where (in principle) it has been addressed by both legally binding acts and voluntary agreements and charters concerning coastal zone management as well as marine spatial planning. This short contribution aims at proposing a framework that brings together principles from the current legal framework and can be applied to assess the level of integration in relation to planning and management of areas characterized by the coexistence of various nature protection regimes.

Consequently, the spatial identification and management of GI is an important issue in planning, and especially in landscape planning as understood in the European Landscape Convention. Building on a previous work by Arcidiacono et al. (2016), this paper tests a methodology whereby the spatial configuration of a GI is identified in relation to four aspects (conservation value, natural value, recreation value, anthropic heritage) which summarize the multifaceted character of landscape. The methodology is tested in the Italian region of Sardinia, by applying it in the coastal landscape units defined in the Regional Landscape Plan currently in force which overlap the metropolitan area of Cagliari. We argue that this methodology can effectively help integrate biodiversity conservation objectives into spatial planning by implementing article 10 of the Habitats Directive, stating that relevant features of the landscape should be managed so as to improve the ecological coherence of the Natura 2000 network. © Springer International Publishing AG 2017.",,456-472,,,10409 LNCS,,,,,,,,Springer Verlag,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Lect.

The difference in the timing of settlement was due primarily to differences in birth dates for the two areas. The time of settlement was positively related to upwelling and negatively related to sea level anomaly for most of the months before settlement. Knowledge of the timing of settlement has implications for design and placement of marine protected areas because protection of nursery grounds is frequently a major objective of these protected areas.

We examined how marine reserves can reduce diseases affecting reef-building corals following acute and chronic disturbances. One year after a severe tropical cyclone, corals inside reserves had sevenfold lower levels of disease than those in non-reserves. Similarly, disease prevalence was threefold lower on reserve reefs following chronic exposure to terrestrial run-off from a degraded river catchment, when exposure duration was below the long-term site average. Examination of 35 predictor variables indicated that lower levels of derelict fishing line and injured corals inside reserves were correlated with lower levels of coral disease in both case studies, signifying that successful disease mitigation occurs when activities that damage reefs are restricted. Conversely, reserves were ineffective in moderating disease when sites were exposed to higher than average levels of run-off, demonstrating that reductions in water quality undermine resilience afforded by reserve protection. In addition to implementing protected areas, we highlight that disease management efforts should also target improving water quality and limiting anthropogenic activities that cause injury. © 2016 The Author(s) Published by the Royal Society.

Pathogen invasion often succeeds physical wounding and injury, yet links between the reduction of damage and the moderation of disease have not been assessed. Here, we examine the utility of no-take marine reserves as tools for mitigating diseases that affect reef-building corals. We found that sites located within reserves had fourfold reductions in coral disease prevalence compared to non-reserve sites (80 466 corals surveyed). Of 31 explanatory variables assessed, coral damage and the abundance of derelict fishing line best explained differences in disease assemblages between reserves and non-reserves. Unexpectedly, we recorded significantly higher levels of disease, coral damage, and derelict fishing line in non-reserves with fishing gear restrictions than in those without gear restrictions. Fishers targeting stocks perceived to be less depleted, coupled with enhanced site access from immediately adjacent boat moorings, may explain these unexpected patterns. Significant correlations between the distance from mooring sites and prevalence values for a ciliate disease known to infest wounded tissue (r = -0.65), coral damage (r = -0.64), and the abundance of derelict fishing line (r = -0.85) corroborate this interpretation. This is the first study to link disease with recreational use intensity in a park, emphasizing the need to evaluate the placement of closures and their direct relationship to ecosystem health. Since corals are modular, ecological processes that govern reproductive and competitive fitness are frequently related to colony surface area therefore, even low levels of cumulative tissue loss from progressing diseases pose significant threats to reef coral persistence. Disease mitigation through reductions in physical injury in areas where human activities are concentrated is another mechanism by which protected areas may improve ecosystem resilience in a changing climate. © 2015 by the Ecological Society of America.",,2555-2567,,9,96,,Ecology,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Ecological Society of America,,,,ALGAE; animal; Animals; Anthozoa; anthropogenic source; Australia; biodiversity; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; BROWN BAND DISEASE; ciliate; ciliates; Ciliates; Ciliophora; CLIMATE-CHANGE; Conservation of Natural Resources; coral reef; coral reefs; Coral reefs; Coral Reefs; Coral Sea; disease; Disease; disease control; disease prevalence; ecosystem health; ecosystem resilience; ENVIRONMENTAL DRIVERS; environmental protection; fish; Fishes; fishing; fishing gear; fishing line; Fishing line; Great Barrier Reef; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; host pathogen interaction; Host-Pathogen Interactions; IMPACT; injury; marine park; MARINE RESERVE PROTECTION; no-take marine reserves; No-take marine reserves; pathogen; pathogens; Pathogens; physical injury; Physical injury; physiology; POPULATIONS; procedures; protected area; Queensland; recreational activity; REDUNDANCY; resilience; Resilience; skeletal eroding band; Skeletal eroding band; white syndromes; White syndromes,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, communitywide effects of reserves are less clear. Marine reserves directly reduce fishing mortality rates, but through the restoration of apex predators, reserves may have strong indirect effects on non-target species. We explored the effects of a large, fully protected marine reserve in the Bahamas on the community of coral-reef fishes. We examined the effect of the reserve on fish biomass by comparing the density and size of all fishes on similar reefs located inside and outside the reserve. Total biomass of fishes was approximately 7× higher in reserve sites, where biomass was strongly concentrated in species of higher trophic levels. Analysis based on the relative magnitude of individual species' responses indicated that, on average, the largest species increased in biomass within the reserve, intermediate-sized species decreased, and the smallest species exhibited variable responses. Species' responses to the reserve were also examined by pooling species into 9 trophic categories using consumptive relationships, which provided corroborating results. Large piscivores (e.g. sharks, large groupers) were on average larger and more abundant inside the reserve. Mid-trophic-level groups (e.g. small piscivores) had higher average biomass outside of the reserve, where the number of species and biomass of large predators was lower. Finally, some low-trophic-level groups (e.g. planktivores) had higher biomass within the reserve, while others (e.g. small herbivores) did not respond strongly. Overall, these results suggest that marine reserves can substantially alter the composition and structure of reef fish communities. © Inter-Research 2010 · www.int-res.com.",,169-180,,,408,,Mar.

For highly mobile species the relevance of an MPA over time might be hampered by temporal variations in distributions or home ranges. In the present work, we used habitat model-based predicted distributions of cetaceans and seabirds within the Bay of Biscay from 2004 to 2017 to characterise the aggregation and persistence of mobile species distributional patterns and the relevance of the existing MPA network. We explored the relationship between population abundance and spatial extent of distribution to assess the aggregation level of species distribution. We used the smallest spatial extent including 75% of the population present in the Bay of Biscay to define specific core areas of distri-butions, and calculated their persistence over the 14 studied years. We inspected the relevance of the MPA network with respect to aggregation and persistence. We found that aggregation and persistence are two independent features of marine megafauna distributions. Indeed, strong persistence was shown in both aggregated (bottlenose dol-phins, auks) and loosely distributed species (northern gannets), while some species with aggregated distributions also showed limited year-to-year persistence in their patterns (black-legged kittiwakes). We thus have demonstrated that both aggregation and persistence have potential impact on the amount of spatio-temporal distributional variability encompassed within static MPAs. Our results exemplified the need to have access to a minimal temporal depth in the species distribution data when aiming to designate new site boundaries for the conservation of mobile species. © 2021, Centre Mersenne.

In response, Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) currently cover 12% of the UAE’s coastal and marine zones. The UAE National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan aims to increase the extent of protection to 14% by 2021, a target that exceeds current global commitments. We applied systematic conservation planning to (1) assess whether conservation features (i.e. species and habitats of conservation concern) are adequately represented in the current system of MPAs, and (2) identify complementary coastal and marine priority areas for conservation and management. Eight planning scenarios were produced based on different conservation targets, the inclusion (or not) of existing MPAs in the generated solutions, and the consideration (or not) of dredging (an activity linked with coastal development in the UAE). A gap analysis demonstrated that to achieve the targets set by experts for all conservation features, additional areas would need to be integrated in conservation plans and policies. Key coastal and marine priority areas were consistently selected for conservation across all planning scenarios. The findings of this work provide a basis for the identification of conservation priorities that can be embedded in the current network of MPAs by extending their boundaries, in post-2020 conservation strategies including plans for creating new MPAs, and in broader spatial planning initiatives. © 2020, Springer Nature B.V.",,2967-2983,,09-Oct,29,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,anthropogenic effect; coastal development; coastal zone; conservation planning; Conservation priorities; Dredging; Expert knowledge; Gap analysis; marine environment; Marine protected areas; spatial planning; strategic approach; submarine plateau; Systematic conservation planning; United Arab Emirates,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Marine conservation areas are a popular management tool to protect and recover marine species and their habitats from intensive fishing pressure and human caused marine degradation. However, many marine conservation areas are thought to have low levels of compliance from diverse fishing populations. Little research exists that quantifies recreational fisher compliance and its drivers within marine conservation areas. We used the Rockfish Conservation Areas (RCAs) in British Columbia as a case study to investigate drivers of compliance. Our objectives were to (1) assess levels of recreational fisher RCA knowledge and compliance, (2) explore factors influencing fisher RCA knowledge and compliance, (3) quantitatively assess levels of fisher rockfish bycatch and release rates, (4) elicit fisher perceptions of RCAs, and (5) obtain fishers' suggestions for improving rockfish conservation. We conducted 325 structured dockside interviews with recreational fishers in 16 locations. Intentional noncompliance was reported by seven percent of recreational fishers, and accidental noncompliance by 16%. The main reason for noncompliance was lack of knowledge. Recreational fishers were almost uniformly unknowledgeable of RCAs and their regulations across fishing experience levels. We found that 25.5% of recreational fishers had never heard of RCAs and ~60% were unsure of RCA locations. However, 77% of fishers believed that rockfish conservation is necessary. The high recreational noncompliance rate in RCAs-primarily accidental fishing-is likely compromising the ability of these marine conservation areas to protect inshore rockfish. The ecological usefulness of marine conservation areas hinges upon users knowing about, and understanding, conservation area rules and regulations. We recommend managers implement a public outreach and education campaign to address the high levels of noncompliance. © 2015 The Authors.",,645-657,,,4,,Glob. Ecol.

Recreational fishers take 12% of global annual fish catches. With millions of people fishing from small boats, this fishing sector is hard to monitor, making accurate quantification of non-compliance an urgent research priority. Shore-based remote camera monitoring was tested for quantifying recreational non-compliance in near-shore, coastal rockfish conservation areas (RCAs) in the Salish Sea, Canada. Six high definition trail cameras were used to monitor 42 locations between July and August 2014. Seventy-nine percent of monitored conservation area sites showed confirmed or probable fishing activity, with no significant difference in fishing effort inside and outside RCAs. Mixed effects generalized linear models were used to test environmental and geographic factors influencing compliance. Sites with greater depth had significantly higher fishing effort, which may imply high, barotrauma-induced, rockfish mortality in RCA sites. Non-compliance estimates were similar to aerial fly-over compliance data from 2011, suggesting that trail camera monitoring may be an accurate and affordable alternative method of assessing non-compliance in coastal conservation areas, especially for community-based organizations wishing to monitor local waters. Widespread non-compliance could compromise the ability of RCAs to protect and rebuild rockfish populations. Increased education, signage, and enforcement is likely to improve compliance.

Predators, however, do not recognize such restrictions and may be attracted to areas of increased prey abundances where human extraction is being limited. Such targeting by predators may reduce or retard the potential recovery of depressed stocks. In the San Juan Islands, northern Puget Sound, USA, marine reserves were implemented to recover depressed fish populations. We examine the role of harbor seals Phoca vitulina in the San Juan Islands food web. We describe the temporal and spatial variability in their diet, emphasizing species for which reserves were established (rockfish Sebastes spp.) and other important de - pressed stocks, including salmon Oncorhynchus spp. and Pacific herring Clupea pallasii. During winter and spring, seals primarily consumed Pacific herring, Pacific sand lance Ammodytes hexapterus, northern anchovy Engraulis mordax, and walleye pollock Theragra chalcogramma. During summer/fall, adult salmonids composed >50% of the diet and were particularly important in oddnumbered calendar years, when pink salmon O. gorbuscha spawn. Rockfish were not a primary prey species at any time of the year, suggesting that the abundance of alternative prey species may reduce predation pressure and provide a critical buffer to rockfish predation. The importance of considering increased visitation by marine predators to areas where potential prey are enhanced through restrictions on human extractions should be considered when modeling the efficacy of quotas and reduced access areas, such as marine reserves. © Inter-Research 2012.",,257-271,,,464,,Mar.

It is responsible for an estimated nine million premature deaths per year, enormous economic losses, erosion of human capital, and degradation of ecosystems. Ocean pollution is an important, but insufficiently recognized and inadequately controlled component of global pollution. It poses serious threats to human health and well-being. The nature and magnitude of these impacts are only beginning to be understood. Goals: (1) Broadly examine the known and potential impacts of ocean pollution on human health. (2) Inform policy makers, government leaders, international organizations, civil society, and the global public of these threats. (3) Propose priorities for interventions to control and prevent pollution of the seas and safeguard human health. Methods: Topic-focused reviews that examine the effects of ocean pollution on human health, identify gaps in knowledge, project future trends, and offer evidence-based guidance for effective intervention. Environmental Findings: Pollution of the oceans is widespread, worsening, and in most countries poorly controlled. It is a complex mixture of toxic metals, plastics, manufactured chemicals, petroleum, urban and industrial wastes, pesticides, fertilizers, pharmaceutical chemicals, agricultural runoff, and sewage. More than 80% arises from land-based sources. It reaches the oceans through rivers, runoff, atmospheric deposition and direct discharges. It is often heaviest near the coasts and most highly concentrated along the coasts of low- and middle-income countries. Plastic is a rapidly increasing and highly visible component of ocean pollution, and an estimated 10 million metric tons of plastic waste enter the seas each year. Mercury is the metal pollutant of greatest concern in the oceans; it is released from two main sources – coal combustion and small-scale gold mining. Global spread of industrialized agriculture with increasing use of chemical fertilizer leads to extension of Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) to previously unaffected regions. Chemical pollutants are ubiquitous and contaminate seas and marine organisms from the high Arctic to the abyssal depths. Ecosystem Findings: Ocean pollution has multiple negative impacts on marine ecosystems, and these impacts are exacerbated by global climate change. Petroleum-based pollutants reduce photosynthesis in marine microorganisms that generate oxygen. Increasing absorption of carbon dioxide into the seas causes ocean acidification, which destroys coral reefs, impairs shellfish development, dissolves calcium-containing microorganisms at the base of the marine food web, and increases the toxicity of some pollutants. Plastic pollution threatens marine mammals, fish, and seabirds and accumulates in large mid-ocean gyres. It breaks down into microplastic and nanoplastic particles containing multiple manufactured chemicals that can enter the tissues of marine organisms, including species consumed by humans. Industrial releases, runoff, and sewage increase frequency and severity of HABs, bacterial pollution, and anti-microbial resistance. Pollution and sea surface warming are triggering poleward migration of dangerous pathogens such as the Vibrio species. Industrial discharges, pharmaceutical wastes, pesticides, and sewage contribute to global declines in fish stocks. Human Health Findings: Methylmercury and PCBs are the ocean pollutants whose human health effects are best understood. Exposures of infants in utero to these pollutants through maternal consumption of contaminated seafood can damage developing brains, reduce IQ and increase children’s risks for autism, ADHD and learning disorders. Adult exposures to methylmercury increase risks for cardiovascular disease and dementia. Manufactured chemicals – phthalates, bisphenol A, flame retardants, and perfluorinated chemicals, many of them released into the seas from plastic waste – can disrupt endocrine signaling, reduce male fertility, damage the nervous system, and increase risk of cancer. HABs produce potent toxins that accumulate in fish and shellfish. When ingested, these toxins can cause severe neurological impairment and rapid death. HAB toxins can also become airborne and cause respiratory disease. Pathogenic marine bacteria cause gastrointestinal diseases and deep wound infections. With climate change and increasing pollution, risk is high that Vibrio infections, including cholera, will increase in frequency and extend to new areas. All of the health impacts of ocean pollution fall disproportionately on vulnerable populations in the Global South – environmental injustice on a planetary scale. Conclusions: Ocean pollution is a global problem. It arises from multiple sources and crosses national boundaries. It is the consequence of reckless, shortsighted, and unsustainable exploitation of the earth’s resources. It endangers marine ecosystems. It impedes the production of atmospheric oxygen. Its threats to human health are great and growing, but still incompletely understood. Its economic costs are only beginning to be counted. Ocean pollution can be prevented. Like all forms of pollution, ocean pollution can be controlled by deploying data-driven strategies based on law, policy, technology, and enforcement that target priority pollution sources. Many countries have used these tools to control air and water pollution and are now applying them to ocean pollution. Successes achieved to date demonstrate that broader control is feasible. Heavily polluted harbors have been cleaned, estuaries rejuvenated, and coral reefs restored. Prevention of ocean pollution creates many benefits. It boosts economies, increases tourism, helps restore fisheries, and improves human health and well-being. It advances the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). These benefits will last for centuries. Recommendations: World leaders who recognize the gravity of ocean pollution, acknowledge its growing dangers, engage civil society and the global public, and take bold, evidence-based action to stop pollution at source will be critical to preventing ocean pollution and safeguarding human health. Prevention of pollution from land-based sources is key. Eliminating coal combustion and banning all uses of mercury will reduce mercury pollution. Bans on single-use plastic and better management of plastic waste reduce plastic pollution. Bans on persistent organic pollutants (POPs) have reduced pollution by PCBs and DDT. Control of industrial discharges, treatment of sewage, and reduced applications of fertilizers have mitigated coastal pollution and are reducing frequency of HABs. National, regional and international marine pollution control programs that are adequately funded and backed by strong enforcement have been shown to be effective. Robust monitoring is essential to track progress. Further interventions that hold great promise include wide-scale transition to renewable fuels; transition to a circular economy that creates little waste and focuses on equity rather than on endless growth; embracing the principles of green chemistry; and building scientific capacity in all countries. Designation of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) will safeguard critical ecosystems, protect vulnerable fish stocks, and enhance human health and well-being. Creation of MPAs is an important manifestation of national and international commitment to protecting the health of the seas. © 2020 The Author(s).",,Jan-64,,1,86,,Ann. of Global Health,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Ubiquity Press,,,,acidification; algal bloom; animal; Animals; antibiotic resistance; aromatic hydrocarbon; Article; bacterium; carcinogenesis; cardiovascular disease; climate change; coastal waters; cognition; cosmetic; developmental disorder; diabetes mellitus; dietary pattern; ecosystem; Ecosystem; ecotoxicity; endocrine disease; environmental monitoring; environmental protection; evidence based practice; fish stock; fishery; flame retardant; global disease burden; greenhouse effect; halogenated hydrocarbon; health; health hazard; human; Humans; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; immunotoxicity; male; Male; marine alga; marine environment; marine species; mercury; metabolic syndrome X; methylmercury; microplastic; microplastic pollution; mortality; motor vehicle tire; neurotoxicity; nonhuman; ocean environment; Oceans and Seas; oil spill; organometallic compound; perfluoro compound; pesticide; pH; plastic; plastic pollution; Plastics; polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon; prevention and control; protozoon; risk factor; sea; sea pollution; sea water; Seawater; toxic substance; Vibrio; virus; water pollutant; water pollution; Water Pollution; water pollution control,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Twelve years later, the benthic biota and fish assemblages in the TFC were assessed using stereo-video and compared with adjacent areas that have been consistently fished with a range of commercial fishing methods. The remote nature of the region has meant that these areas would be inaccessible to recreational fishers. After 12 years of protection there were significant differences between the TFC and comparable fished areas in both the composition and the height of biogenic structures, however the magnitude of these differences were subtle, except for branching soft corals, which were significantly taller in the TFC area. Despite the relatively young age of the TFC, significant differences in the fish abundance and biomass compositions were driven by the slower growing, longer lived and inherently less productive fishery target species. The abundance of Lutjanus sebae (red emperor) and Epinephelus multinotatus (Rankin cod), and the associated biomass of L. sebae and Pristipomoides multidens (goldband snapper) were all greater within the TFC. However, neither the abundance or biomass of the relatively shorter lived and more productive fishery species (e.g. the bluespotted emperor Lethrinus punctulatus and the brownstripe snapper Lutjanus vitta) were greater within the TFC. Growth rates of benthic biota across the NWS are unknown, however the limited detectable differences in benthic biota between the TFC and fished areas, suggests that either recovery of the benthic biota is slow and may not yet be at a threshold for detection and/or alternatively that current fishing activities are not causing adverse impacts to biogenic structures.

It is an important and extensive humid area integrated in the Special Protection Area (SPA) Ria de Aveiro (PTZPE0004) due to its ornithological importance and habitat typology. Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) is a major factor threatening the environmental and ecological balance of the lagoon and associated ecosystems. In recent years, the water hyacinth has spread over more than 50% of the lagoon surface, thus contributing to the degradation of the ecological, economical and social conditions and, ultimately, the lagoon system of Ria de Aveiro. In December 2006 the Municipal Authority of Águeda, in association with other public entities, initiated the mechanical removal (using an aquatic-harvester) of the extensive water hyacinth mats that covered the lagoon, with the intention of improving the system in a sustainable manner. Since the beginning of this action, the aquatic-harvester has removed more than 15 500 m3 of vegetal mats from the lagoon, which, in accordance with the current legislation, has been transported to an old inactive quarry site.

This paper aims to determine the existing environmental coastal research status in the Azores and Cabo Verde since research is essential for any decision support system. Some tools are fundamental to ensure the viability of the marine environments, such as Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM), Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), and Marine Spatial Planning (MSP), which rely on existing knowledge. Effective implementation of marine plans can increase by developing a multi-perspective knowledge approach. This paper presents a systematic review of the archipelagos of the Azores and Cabo Verde through a comparative meta-analysis of the literature based on the PRISMA report to better understand the focus and status of research related to coastal zones, within and outside MPAs, along with marine spatial planning and management in the two socio-economic contexts. This will help to identify common issues, trends over the years, successes, and challenges, highlighting the specific interests of each country, identifying the knowledge gaps, promoting mutual learning, and pointing out possible paths for future convergence toward sustainable use of the ecosystems and conservation goals. Differences were found between the research made in both archipelagos, lacking research on important disciplines (reproduction, behavior, population dynamics, climate change, etc.), in Cabo Verde, compared to the Azores. This study also reveals that some research fields still need to be pushed forward to have broader knowledge in both areas.

Given that these targets are predominantly based on political feasibility rather than scientific evidence, it remains unclear whether fulfilment of Target 11 will suffice to safeguard biodiversity and ensure continued provision of essential ecosystem services.

Land-use planners and managers are often responsible for providing access to natural areas for recreation while avoiding environmental impacts such as declines of threatened species. Since recreation can have harmful effects on biodiversity, reliable information about protected-area visitation patterns is vital for managers. Our goal was to quantify recreational use in a fragmented urban reserve network and identify factors that influenced visitation. We empirically measured visitation rates at 18 reserves in San Diego County, California. Using random forest models, we identified biophysical and socioeconomic factors that influenced spatial variation in visitation rates and made projections to 27 additional reserves, validating with an expert opinion survey. Visitation rates varied widely across the reserve network. Accessibility variables, such as numbers of housing units and parking lots, were key explanatory variables that had positive relationships with visitation rates. To illustrate the applications of our models, we assessed the exposure of 7 species and subspecies of conservation concern to recreation by comparing predicted occurrence to projected visitation intensities. We found that several species and subspecies, including the orange-throated whiptail (Aspidoscelis hyperythra), western spadefoot (Spea hammondii), and the federally-threatened coastal California gnatcatcher (Polioptila californica californica), are likely exposed to high levels of recreational activity. Our results can be used to identify species for further research, highlight areas with potential conflict between recreation and conservation objectives, and forecast future changes in visitation. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.",,62-71,,,175,,Landsc.

To evaluate whether marine reserves are meeting this expectation, we compiled over 40 years of rock lobster (Jasus edwardsii) monitoring data and examined long-term trends in three relatively small marine reserves (c.4–8 km2) in northern New Zealand, a region that has experienced large-scale declines in the fishery over the last decade. In all three reserves, lobster density initially increased by at least a factor of three following protection. However, over the last 10 years, lobster populations have experienced large declines in all three reserves with densities now 59–80%, and spawning stock biomass (SSB) now 51–86%, below historic levels. Using peak lobster density in each reserve as an unfished reference point, current densities on fished reefs are <15% of unfished levels and SSB is currently only 3–12% of peak population biomass in reserves. These results highlight the poor state of the wider stock and declines in the reserves follow regional declines in catch-per-unit-effort in the fishery, suggesting that lobster populations within these reserves are not fully protected from fishing. Adult J. edwardsii are known to undertake seasonal foraging excursions that carry them beyond the offshore boundaries of these reserves where they are susceptible to fishing-related mortality. We propose that the observed declines are likely a result of direct harvest of individuals beyond reserve boundaries and that larger reserves which encompass both a species' longshore and offshore movements are needed. © 2021 The Authors.

Marine top predators, such as seabirds, may be used to identify and prioritize sites for marine conservation. Here we highlight the important role that seabird scientists can play in identifying candidate sites for MPAs; areas identified using at-sea surveys, seabird tracking, and species-habitat modelling. Prioritization of species and sites needs knowledge of ecological and habitat dynamics, threats and important areas at key stages of annual and life-cycle. The results need to be interpreted within the context of relevant policy mechanisms and agreements. The size and shape of candidate MPAs should be: (a) realistic for the key species and systems involved; (b) easy to monitor and enforce; and (c) where feasible involve reasonably long-term data sets. Designation of MPAs by relevant authorities and organisations will require effective advocacy (at local, national and international levels) and must be based on robust and defensible science. Site boundaries should also be sufficient flexibility to be modified, if necessary, in the light of future experience and data collection. The effectiveness of MPAs at the scale required for seabird conservation will need to build on existing experience and develop innovative, as well as traditional, marine spatial planning, monitoring and management techniques. To achieve this within the target timeframes outlined in a number of policy mechanisms will require the rapid development of new approaches, resources and partnerships. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,14-May,,,156,,Biol.

Tracking data provide unparalleled information on the distribution of marine taxa, but there are no agreed guidelines that ensure these data are used consistently to identify biodiversity hotspots and inform marine management decisions. Here, we develop methods to standardize the analysis of tracking data to identify sites of conservation importance at global and regional scales. Location: We applied these methods to the largest available compilation of seabird tracking data, covering 60 species, collected from 55 deployment locations ranging from the poles to the tropics. Methods: Key developments include a test for pseudo-replication to assess the independence of two groups of tracking data, an objective approach to define species-specific smoothing parameters (h values) for kernel density estimation based on area-restricted search behaviour, and an analysis to determine whether sites identified from tracked individuals are also representative for the wider population. Results: This analysis delineated priority sites for marine conservation for 52 of the 60 species assessed. We compiled 252 data groupings and defined 1052 polygons, between them meeting Important Bird and Biodiversity Area criteria over 1500 times. Other results showed 13% of data groups were inadequate for site definition and 10% showed some level of pseudo-replication. Between 25 and 50 trips were needed within a data group for data to be considered at least partially representative of the respective population. Main conclusions: Our approach provides a consistent framework for using animal tracking data to delineate areas of global conservation importance, allowing greater integration into marine spatial planning and policy. The approaches we describe are exemplified for pelagic seabirds, but are applicable to a range of taxonomic groups.

Location Australia. Methods Patterns of distribution in the Australian fish fauna, at both intra-regional and global scales, were examined using a science-based, management framework dividing Australia's marine biodiversity into 16 province-level biogeographical units. Occurrences of 3734 species in eight depth-stratified bathomes (from the coast to the mid-continental slope) within each province were analysed to determine the structure and local affinities of their assemblages and their association with faunas of nearby regions and oceans basins. Results Strong geographic and depth-related structure was evident. Fish assemblages in each province, and in each bathome of each province, were distinct, with the shelf-break bathome more similar to the adjacent continental shelf bathome than to the upper slope bathome. Data based only on endemic species performed well as a surrogate of the entire dataset, yielding comparable patterns of similarity between provinces and bathomes. Tropical and temperate elements were better discriminated than elements of the Pacific and Indian oceans, with the central western province more similar to the tropical provinces (including those in the east), and the eastern province closer to southern temperate provinces. The fauna shares the closest regional affinities with those of the adjacent south-west Pacific, western Pacific Rim, and elements of wide-ranging Indo-Pacific components. Elements unique to the Pacific and Indian oceans are poorly represented. Main conclusions The complex nature of Australia's marine ichthyofauna is confirmed. A hierarchy of provinces and bathomes, used to ensure that Australia's developing marine reserve network is both representative and comprehensive, is equally robust when based on all known Australian fish species or on only those species endemic to this continent. Latitude and depth are more important than oceanic influences on the composition of this fauna at these scales. © 2011 Commonwealth of Australia.",,1484-1496,,8,38,,J.

We propose the term Mediterranean Temporary Lagoons (MTLs) for these ephemeral water bodies and discuss their definition and characteristics. This term emerged in France among its coastal zone managers, who now commonly use it for conservation purposes. It is used in both natural systems as well as most artificial salt ponds in abandoned saltworks. In Europe, two directives have integrated lagoons as key targets to be preserved. Nonetheless, a certain discrepancy in the different definitions of lagoons has constrained joint actions. Indeed, while institutional definitions were originally derived from the scientific concept, their legislative and managerials meanings have been gradually modified and nowadays often differ from the original concept to create difficulties in the field. In addition, while it has been recommended to consider MTLs as a coastal lagoon habitat in the European Habitat Directive, its interpretation among EU member states is unsettled. Thus, clarifying lagoon habitats' terminology is required to ensure better management, monitoring and planning, and coordinate conservation actions. We discuss the inclusion of MTLs in habitat 1150 by confronting scientific and institutional literature and propose a new framework to better delimitate lagoon habitat around the Mediterranean basin, integrating MTLs.

Fish were collected during spring 2009 over the Patagonia continental shelf, including the Marine Protected Area Namuncurá/Burdwood Bank, in the southwestern Atlantic Ocean. The age and growth analyses were performed by counting marks in sagittae, assuming an annual periodicity of their deposition, and identified 8-year classes (0+ to 7+). Given the size range of the fish, length-at-age data were fitted to the Gompertz growth model TLt = 55.45 [exp ((exp) –0.32 (t – 1.89))], explaining more than 95% of the growth pattern. Moreover, the chemical composition of otolith core and edge areas was analyzed by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The canonical analysis of principal coordinates successfully allocated 72.92% of the fish for the core and 91.67% for the edge area of the otolith, in three groups corresponding to “northern Patagonia shelf,” “southern Patagonia shelf,” and “Marine Protected Area Namuncurá/Burdwood Bank” areas, suggesting a high segregation among them over the Patagonian shelf. Thus, otolith elemental composition has proven to be an efficient approach to identify different nursery areas and stocks for the species. The present results provide new information on the growth and the population structure of C. trigloides, from a geographical area where information on this issue is still scarce, constituting an essential tool to develop conservation principles for the species.

The anchovy is zooplankton predator therefore existence of anchovy is affected by abundance of zooplankton. The aim of the research are to know composition, density and spatial distribution of the zooplankton during wet season (June to August). Data of zooplankton composition were obtained from sampling by using plankton net at 10 observation stations, meanwhile, data of densities were collected using scientific hydroacoustic system, BioSonic DTX, on six parallel transect lines and one cross-parallel transect line. Geostatistical analyses technique was used to describe horizontal distributions of zooplankton and vertical distributions were plot in the graphs. The result shows that zooplankton community dominated by Copepod and meroplankton. Highest density was found on August (9393/m2), while lowest density was on June (903 ind./m2). Vertical distribution of zooplankton shows that highest density was found near surface and decrease to deeper water coloumn. On the horizontal distribution, lower densities (0 - 400 ind./m2) occupy wider space, they evenly distributed in western, middle (north to south) and east, on the contrary, higher densities (3000- 5000 ind./m2) occupy smaller space i.e in the south-west, south and east to north-east of Inner Ambon Bay  © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,805,,,,,,,,IOP Publishing Ltd,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

Insufficient funding has been identified as a factor hindering their ability to achieve conservation goals. However, there is limited research investigating why and how marine conservation funding is allocated. This study expands scholarship on funding for marine conservation by exploring three aspects of marine funding: (1) the processes of marine funding allocation; (2) the role of perceptions in funding decisions; and (3) strategies for strengthening funding proposals. To do so, we apply the Narrative Policy Framework (NPF), a framework that emphasizes decision-making theory and facilitates an empirical analysis of the decision-making processes by focusing researcher attention on internal characteristics, contextual events, how those events are perceived as narratives with characters, and how those narratives influence decision-making. Leveraging qualitative interviews and survey data, we investigate the relationship between these NPF components and marine funding decisions in the state of Oregon. Notable findings suggest that higher funding amounts were allocated to proposals that highlight the initiative's ease of success and ability to create lasting impacts. Additionally, funders that value equity are more likely to fund projects that directly interact with human communities. Finally, results are synthesized into 5 applied recommendations that marine conservation initiatives may find useful in strengthening their funding proposals. © 2021",,,,,203,,Ocean Coast.

We conducted a case study of a small MPA in Northern Philippines to understand socio-economic status and livelihoods of the fishermen stakeholders, and examine their attitudes and perceptions on marine resource values and conservation. Using an ordered probit model, we also investigated factors affecting these perceptions. We found a lower fish income ratio in higher income quartiles, a small share of local non-fishery income, and an apparent lack of other livelihood opportunities within the rural economy. The majority of fishermen had positive perceptions of the non-market value of marine resources, agreed with the need for MPAs, and perceived positive potential income benefit from MPAs. Level of education and fishing income were consistent significant positive determinants of these perceptions. Policy implications suggest: involving likely-to-be-displaced reef fishers in the crafting of management plans; conducting intensive research on appropriate and feasible livelihood options, for example, marine culture technologies; and designing explicit strategies to increase the propensity of coastal households to invest in children's education as a strategy for long-term sustainability of resource management. © 2010 Taylor & Francis.",,401-409,,5,17,,Int.

The results showed that Porifera was the most important component (in terms of wet biomass) of these benthic communities, followed by Cnidaria and Echinodermata. The evidences regarding general composition of the main taxonomical groups of the benthic invertebrate community did not support the maintenance of the original zoning of the MPA (core, buffer, and transition), considering that only a weak differentiation was found among the sub-areas designed in the creation Law. Additionally, the analyzed evidences also demonstrated that this MPA was different from other neighboring areas. Vulnerable and fragile organisms recorded in many locations led to the detection of fourteen sites located inside the MPA Namuncurá that meet the characteristics of VMEs (wet biomass of ? 10 kg 1200 m?2 of vulnerable and fragile species).

Increasing knowledge of this animal's foraging habitats, diet and movement patterns is listed amongst the research priorities adopted under the framework of the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR). To contribute to this goal, satellite transmitters were deployed on 10 type-C killer whales and skin biopsies were obtained from seven individuals in Terra Nova Bay (Ross Sea) during austral summer (January–February) 2015. Hierarchical switching state–space models (hSSSM) were applied to Argos satellite tracking data to describe the movements of tagged whales, which were then paired with available diving data. Stable isotopes analyses were performed on the biopsy samples to describe the diet. A total of 8,803 Argos locations were available to fit the hSSSM. All whales engaged in potential foraging activity in localized areas along the Ross Sea coastline, followed by uninterrupted travel (i.e. migration) outside Antarctic waters, with no evidence of foraging activity. The pattern of deeper dives matched the occurrence of encamped behaviour indicated by the hSSSM results. The stable isotopes analysis indicated that Antarctic toothfish comprised the largest component (35%) of the prey biomass, raising concerns since this species is targeted by commercial fishery in the Ross Sea Region. These results provide new insights into the ecology of type-C killer whales in the Ross Sea Region, underlining a potential threat from commercial fishing in the area. Considering the recent establishment of the Ross Sea Region Marine Protected Area, these findings will contribute to the required Research and Monitoring Programme of the Marine Protected Area and provide new empirical evidence to inform conservation measures in the existing Terra Nova Bay Antarctic Special Protected Area. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,2428-2440,,12,30,,Aquatic Conserv.

In Brazil, no-take and multiple-use MPAs have advisory councils that allow co-management as an important strategy to deal with conservation challenges, mainly in urbanized coastal areas. However, the profile of members and their perceptions regarding advisory council challenges remain poorly known. Here, we assessed the advisory management councils of the largest network of MPAs in the South Western Atlantic, situated next to one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world. Seven MPA advisory councils were initially characterized through consultation with the MPA managers, followed by interviews with each advisory council member. We found that advisory council members were mostly agents of the local government, university scientists, members of local associations, and employees of non-governmental organizations. Compared with no-take MPAs, multiple-use MPAs tended to have greater diversity of member profiles in terms of institutional affiliation, gender, training level and age group. Although the majority of respondents considered the advisory councils an effective management tool, almost 30% of the interviewees did not recognize this mechanism as efficient, and the perceived capacity for advisory councils to respond to challenges was lower in no-take MPAs. This perception was attributed to a lack of complete actor inclusivity and the low decision-making power of advisory councils. There was a general agreement that no-take MPA advisory councils in particular are not achieving their sustainability goals and have progressed less than multiple-use MPAs in terms of co-management. To overcome this, we provide a series of recommendations to improve stakeholder participation and co-management of MPA operation. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,249,,Ocean Coast.

At the southeastern Brazil, estuaries inside protected areas highlight as a great source of ecosystem services connected to the biodiversity, such as the food provisioning for local communities (i.e. fishery supply). However, climate change models considering the last four decades alert to an annual rainfall increase in the region, threatening the estuarine biodiversity and its associated ecosystem services. Here, we evaluated how estuarine macrofaunal distribution could be used as ecological indicators to support the stakeholders management needs in subtropical Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). The intertidal macrofauna distribution was assessed along physical gradients in estuaries within MPAs of the southeastern Brazil, testing the effects of salinity and sediment properties on taxa richness. Then, implications of these ecological findings were discussed with the local users and managers of the MPAs, aiming to stipulate indicators and management proposals considering the rainfall increase predicted for the region. We found that macrofauna community varied between estuarine zones along the physical gradients. High values of mud and organic content in the sediment were correlated with reduced taxa richness in the upper estuarine zone, indicating high vulnerability of biodiversity to a possible estuarine mud input connected to the expected rainfall increase. Stakeholders noted that this knowledge could assist with spatial planning for an adaptive management of the biodiversity use rules on the MPAs, with focus on the ecosystem services conservation (ecosystem-based management). Stakeholders suggested using biodiversity hotspots to guide estuarine areas classification (no-take zones and sustainable use zones), maintaining the resources use rules adaptable according to the biodiversity changes. In this regard, our data revealed important bioindicators, such as the macrofaunal richness, which can be monitored as “early signals” to assess eventual ecosystem alterations related to the climate changes. These signals can include loss in taxa richness, extirpation of species exclusively found on the lower estuarine zone (sensitives to mud input) and changes in the distribution or abundance of dominant taxa. We suggest that understanding the relationships between macrofaunal indicators and ecosystems services, associated with continuous monitoring, are the key steps to implementing an adaptive ecosystem-based management of these protected estuaries in the current changing scenario, contributing to decision making at local scale that respond to global challenges, as the UN Ocean Decade. © 2021 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,63,,J.

To support strategic decision making aimed at sustainable management of the oceans, such as the establishment of protected areas for marine wildlife, we identified areas predicted to support multispecies seabird aggregations in the Timor Sea. We developed species distribution models for 21 seabird species based on at-sea survey observations from 2000-2013 and oceanographic variables (e.g., bathymetry). We applied 4 statistical modeling techniques and combined the results into an ensemble model with robust performance. The ensemble model predicted the probability of seabird occurrence in areas where few or no surveys had been conducted and demonstrated 3 areas of high seabird richness that varied little between seasons. These were located within 150 km of Adele Island, Ashmore Reef, and the Lacepede Islands, 3 of the largest aggregations of breeding seabirds in Australia. Although these breeding islands were foci for high species richness, model performance was greatest for 3 nonbreeding migratory species that would have been overlooked had regional monitoring been restricted to islands. Our results indicate many seabird hotspots in the Timor Sea occur outside existing reserves (e.g., Ashmore Reef Marine Reserve), where shipping, fisheries, and offshore development likely pose a threat to resident and migratory populations. Our results highlight the need to expand marine spatial planning efforts to ensure biodiversity assets are appropriately represented in marine reserves.

In turn, as most marine species are thermally-sensitive, water-breathing ectotherms, it is possible that the externalities of climate change paired with persistent fishing pressures will cumulatively impact global fisheries. This article briefly outlines the observed impacts of climate change via ocean warming and deoxygenation. Also, how these environmental changes impact marine organisms, plus, how marine species and ecosystems respond to these changes will be discussed. Thereafter, general fisheries management strategies, including maximum sustainable yield will be introduced, as well as how precautionary fisheries management can incorporate uncertainty surrounding future ocean regimes. Dynamic management approaches including ecosystem-based fisheries management and marine protected areas will be discussed as tools that may promote sustainable fisheries as well as conservation objectives simultaneously throughout the forthcoming period of climate change. © 2022 Elsevier Inc.

However, in catchments where arable fields dominate, the impact of agriculture on water pollution is still problematic. In Poland, recently, the fertilization level has decreased, mostly for economic reasons. However, this applies primarily to phosphorus and potassium. In order to evaluate the impact of agriculture on water quality in a protected area with a high proportion of arable fields in the aspect of level and type of fertilization, complex monitoring has been applied. The present study was carried out in Wielkopolska National Park and its buffer zone, which are protected under Natura 2000 as Special Areas of Conservation and Special Protection Areas. The aim of the study were (1) to assess the impact of agriculture, with special attention on fertilization, on groundwater, and running water quality and (2) to designate priority areas for implementing nitrogen reduction measures in special attention on protected areas. In our study, high nitrogen concentrations in groundwater and surface waters were detected in the agricultural catchments. The results demonstrate that in the watersheds dominated by arable fields, high nitrogen concentrations in groundwater were measured in comparison to forestry catchments, where high ammonium concentrations were observed. The highest nitrogen concentrations were noted in spring after winter freezing, with a small cover of vegetation, and in the areas with a high level of nitrogen application. In the studied areas, both in the park and its buffer zone, unfavorable N:P and N:K ratios in supplied nutrients were detected. Severe shortage of phosphorus and potassium in applied fertilizers is one of the major factors causing leaching of nitrogen due to limited possibilities of its consumption by plants. © 2016, The Author(s).",,17-Jan,,3,188,,Environ.

The aim of this study was to (a) assess the effect of the reduction of water levels on nutrient availability in the sediment in the littoral zone; (b) evaluate the effect of changes in water level on biomass productivity and nutrient concentrations in the aboveground biomass of four emergent species: Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steud., Typha angustifolia L., Carex acutiformis L., Glyceria maxima (C. Hartm.) Holmb; and (c) assess the efficiency of the littoral zone in the reduction of nutrient pollution. The study hypothesis was that water level reduction has a positive effect on the plant biomass of high productive species. The study was carried out in the littoral zone of Tomickie Lake, situated in the western part of Poland. This lake is located in the protected area—the buffer zone of Wielkopolska National Park, and at the international level—Natura 2000. Six transects, perpendicular to the shoreline, were selected at two subzones—permanently and seasonally flooded. Analyses of nutrient concentrations in sediments and plant species were performed. The results show the higher productivity of reeds in the zone where water occurs seasonally at the site through the year, which reached 1193 g dry weight/m2. The decline of the water level may lead to the increased growth of highly productive species as emergent vegetation with a broad ecological scale in terms of nutrient concentrations and changes of water depth, i.e., Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steud. Species that prefer growth in the deeper part of the lake will be characterized by lower productivity, despite the high availability of nutrients. Changes in the availability of nutrients may cause the intensification of lake overgrowth by very productive species, which may affect biodiversity, which is particularly high in protected areas. © 2023 by the author.",,,,6,15,,Sustainability,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI,,,,aboveground biomass; climate change; COMMON REED; concentration (composition); EMERGENT MACROPHYTES; EUTROPHICATION; GLYCERIA; grass; GROWTH; intertidal environment; lacustrine deposit; macrophyte; macrophyte productivity; NITROGEN; NUTRIENT; nutrient availability; nutrient concentrations; PHOSPHORUS; PHRAGMITES-AUSTRALIS; PLANT BIOMASS; Poland [Central Europe]; sediment; water level; Wielkopolska,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Research to better understand and inform the management of these stressors is burgeoning. However, in situ studies of coral reef ecology are constrained by complex logistics and limited resources. Many reef studies are also hampered by the scale-dependent nature of ecological patterns, and inferences made on causal relationships within coral reef systems are limited by the scales of observation. This is because most socio-ecological studies are conducted at scales relevant to the phenomenon of interest. However, management often occurs across a significantly broader, often geopolitical, range of scales. While there is a critical need for incisive coral reef management actions at relevant spatial and temporal scales, it remains unclear to what extent the scales of empirical study overlap with the scales at which management inferences and recommendations are made. This systematic map protocol will evaluate this potential scale mismatch with the goal of raising awareness about the significance of effectively addressing and reporting the scales at which researchers collect data and make assumptions. Methods: We will use the Collaboration for Environmental Evidence (CEE) systematic mapping guidelines to identify relevant studies using a framework-based synthesis to summarise the spatial and temporal scales of coral reef fish ecology research and the scales at which management inferences or recommendations are made. Using tested predefined terms, we will search for relevant published academic and grey literature, including bibliographic databases, web-based search engines, and organisational websites. Inclusion criteria for the evidence map are empirical studies that focus on coral reef fish ecological organisation and processes, those informing management interventions and policy decisions, and management documents that cite coral reef research for management decision-making. Study results will be displayed graphically using data matrices and heat maps.

Managing and conserving the biodiversity values within this network requires knowledge of the physical and biological assets that lie within its boundaries. Unfortunately very little is known about the habitats and biological assemblages of the continental shelf within the network, where diversity is richest and anthropogenic pressures are greatest. Effective management of the CMR estate into the future requires this knowledge gap to be filled efficiently and quantitatively. The challenge is particularly great for the shelf as multibeam echosounder (MBES) mapping, a key tool for identifying and quantifying habitat distribution, is time consuming in shallow depths, so full coverage mapping of the CMR shelf assets is unrealistic in the medium-term. Here we report on the results of a study undertaken in the Flinders Commonwealth Marine Reserve (southeast Australia) designed to test the benefits of two approaches to characterising shelf habitats: (i) MBES mapping of a continuous (?30 km2) area selected on the basis of its potential to include a range of seabed habitats that are potentially representative of the wider area, versus; (ii) a novel approach that uses targeted mapping of a greater number of smaller, but spatially balanced, locations using a Generalized Random Tessellation Stratified sample design. We present the first quantitative estimates of habitat type and sessile biological communities on the shelf of the Flinders reserve, the former based on three MBES analysis techniques. We contrast the quality of information that both survey approaches offer in combination with the three MBES analysis methods. The GRTS approach enables design based estimates of habitat types and sessile communities and also identifies potential biodiversity hotspots in the northwest corner of the reserve's IUCN zone IV, and in locations close to shelf incising canyon heads. Design based estimates of habitats, however, vary substantially depending on the MBES analysis technique, highlighting the challenging nature of the reserve's low profile reefs, and improvements that are needed when acquiring MBES data for small GRTS locations. We conclude that the two survey approaches are complementary and both have their place in a successful and flexible monitoring strategy; the emphasis on one method over the other should be considered on a case by case basis, taking into account the survey objectives and limitations imposed by the type of vessel, time available, size and location of the region where knowledge is required. © 2015 Lawrence et al.",,,,10,10,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,Aquatic Organisms; aquatic species; Australia; biodiversity; Biodiversity; CLASSIFICATION; CONSERVATION; Conservation of Natural Resources; DESIGNS; ecosystem; Ecosystem; environmental protection; FISHERIES; habitat; head; human; Humans; monitoring; Oceans and Seas; physiology; procedures; sea; sound; Sound; stratified sample,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Hence, a critical step of conservation is predicting the efficacy of management actions in future. We aimed to determine how foundational, habitat-building species will respond to climate change in Fiji. Location: The Republic of Fiji. Methods: We develop species distribution models (SDMs) using MaxEnt, General Additive Models and Boosted Regression Trees and publicly available data from the Global Biodiversity Information Facility to predict changes in distribution of suitable habitat for mangrove forests, coral habitat, seagrass meadows and critical fisheries invertebrates under several IPCC climate change scenarios in 2070 or 2100. We then overlay predicted distribution models onto existing Fijian protected area network to assess whether today's conservation measures will afford protection to tomorrow's distributions. Results: We found that mangrove suitability is projected to decrease along the Coral Coast and increase northward towards the Yasawa Islands due to precipitation changes. The response of seagrass meadows was predicted to be inconsistent and dependent on the climate scenario. Meanwhile, suitability for coral reefs was not predicted to decline significantly overall. The mangrove crab Scylla serrata, an important resource for fisherwomen in Fiji, is projected to increase in habitat suitability while economically important sea cucumber species will have highly variable responses to climate change. Main conclusions: Species distribution models are a critical tool for conservation managers, as linking spatial distribution data with future climate change scenarios can aid in the creation and resiliency of protected area programmes. New protected area designations should consider the future distribution of species to maximize benefits to those taxa. © 2023 The Authors.

In this study we report on a 10-year survey of the fish fauna of Bonne Bay, a fjord surrounded by the Gros Morne National Park on the west coast of Newfoundland, Canada. The objectives of our study were: 1) to determine the fish fauna of Bonne Bay using standardized sampling methods; 2) to gather information on the habitats of fishes of conservation concern; and 3) to provide baseline information on Bonne Bay as a potential candidate for a National Marine Conservation Area (NMCA). Methods: A survey of the fish fauna of the inner Bonne Bay was conducted each summer from 2002 to 2011 at multiple sites representing a range of fish habitats within the fjord. Sampling gears included two types of beach seine, gillnets with various mesh sizes and a bottom trawl. Species composition was statistically compared across sites within the fjord. Results: We collected and identified 29 fish species from 17 families. Fish assemblages comprised anadromous, estuarine, and marine fish species, including a late-maturing type of winter skate (Leucoraja ocellata) that is rarely found in the adjacent waters of the northern Gulf of St. Lawrence. Similarity in species composition across sites reflected salinity, substrate composition, and presence of eelgrass (Zostera marina), but not the geographic distance between sites. Conclusions: Bonne Bay's adjacency to a United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage Site, its diverse fish fauna that includes several species of conservation concern, its potential for education and enjoyment, and its stewardship by local people are suggestive of the future candidacy as a NMCA.

Based on Public Perceptions Research literature, this study explores a panel of eight theoretical variables that reflect the multidimensional character of recreationists’ perceptions of CMPAs and how the related results could inform appropriate CMPA communication strategies. Onsite face-to-face interviews with 1,000 users were conducted for seven recreational activities (hiking, surfing, scuba-diving, boating, sailing, kite-surfing, kayaking) across a total of ten local sites. Results revealed that despite sharing a common motivation for being in contact with nature, recreationists expressed diverse perceptions and attitudes toward CMPAs and management, which can be divided into five segments: “CMPA-Not-convinced” (31.3% of all recreationists), “CMPA-Local Conservator” (11.5%), “CMPA-Not-Responsible” (12.7%), “CMPA-Passers-by” (20.1%) and “CMPA-Convinced” (24.4%).

The well-established Recreation Experience Preference scale provides a useful framework for understanding motivations but very few studies have applied the REP scale to coastal and marine protected areas (CMPA). Applying the REP scale in a coastal and marine context is of interest considering the different characteristics, constraints and management compared to terrestrial protected areas. This paper explores the motivational aspects of 1000 recreational users of French CMPAs. Past research indicates French CMPAs are characterized by a low public visibility and few perceived benefits as a place to recreate. An onsite, face to face questionnaire gathered recreational user motivation data subsequently analyzed using the REP scale domains. REP domains were characterized by four main domains: ""Enjoy nature"", ""Escape personalsocial-pressures"", “Achievement/stimulation” and ""Physical fitness"". A standardized clustering procedure was used to identify groups of respondents with similar patterns of REP response. It suggested partitioning the motivations into four segments: ""Solitaries"", ""Antistress performers"",""Socialisers"" and ""Explorers"". Based on these findings, authors discuss the relevance of the REP concept and its management implications as a way for building community support vital to achieving CMPA conservation goals. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,33,,J.

It is also essential for characterizing habitats that represent an essential component of European nature conservation policy, especially within the Natura 2000 network. However, identifying plant communities is a complex operation partly because of the lack of available tools to identify them accurately. This obstacle is particularly noticeable when we talk about diverse plant communities like meadows. This study aims to develop an expert system to apply formalized classifications of Atlantic estuarine wet meadow community types in the Natura 2000 site ‘Estuaire de la Loire’. The tool we created automatically assigns vegetation plots to the units of the French vegetation typology. It allows us to ensure the classification of the European habitat types (EUNIS and the Annex I of the EU Habitats Directive) with 91% accuracy. This expert system was applied to a dataset of 1898 vegetation plots from the study area. It allowed us to link 718 vegetation plots to 4 habitats of wet meadows including the habitat of community interest 1410 ‘Mediterranean salt meadows (Juncetalia maritimi)’. Using this approach, we have also defined the characteristic species of these habitats at a local scale. This tool enables the fast, objective and replicable identifications of wet meadows which are necessary to map or monitor the habitat type (sensu Habitat Directive). The method applied in this study can be easily adapted in other sites and for other habitat types. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,4337-4357,,14,30,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,ASSIGNMENT; Atlantic estuarine wet meadows; CLASSIFICATION; data set; estuarine environment; expert system; Expert system; France; habitat type; HABITATS; Habitats directive; Indicator indicator; meadow; Natura 2000; nature conservation; Plant -communities; Plant -communities; PLANT-COMMUNITIES; Varanidae; VEGETATION; vegetation dynamics,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A panel of methods (fishing log book, day-to-day charts of distribution of fishing gear, embarkation of scientists, landing port enquiries) have been implemented in the national park of Port-Cros (French Riviera) and in the natural reserve of Scandola (Corsica) and might be adapted for other sites according to the degree of cooperation existing between fishermen and park officers. In both cases, surveys have provided a basis for characterizing the activities of the artisanal fisheries: description of the fishing fleet, the equipment used, the fishing patterns and sites, the species targeted and for calculation of the yield per outing, per net, per piece of net, per type of mesh and per species or category of fish.

Data from the case studies were compiled by the authors. In Zanzibar, secondary data were obtained through a previous project, which included a stakeholder workshop in Zanzibar (in 2019) and one deliverable published by the IUCN on Zanzibar of their catalogue “Aquaculture and Marine Conservation”. In Indonesia, the original data were provided by the Blue Natural Capital Funding Facility (BNCFF) and the associated local teams. The analysis of the data, the information provided, and the scoring itself were done by the authors, in association with local teams in both areas. The results of the two assessments, discussed in the paper and presented in detail in the Supplementary materials, can be considered original research, never previously published in a scientific journal. The concept of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) was proposed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) to protect, restore, and sustainably manage natural and modified ecosystems for achieving a variety of societal benefits. The IUCN released the IUCN Global Standard for NbS™ to help design, assess, strengthen, and upscale NbS interventions. In the current context of growing uncertainties for the future of coastlines and oceans, aquaculture has been recognized as a positive activity for achieving sustainable development in coastal communities; supporting food security, poverty alleviation, and economic resilience; and contributing to the conservation of marine ecosystems in some cases. However, the sustainability of aquaculture systems has often been criticized. Aquaculture initiatives in coastal areas can achieve both nature conservation and sustainable development objectives, but reflection on the conditions under which this would happen is needed. This article examines aquaculture systems through the lens of the NbS concept and the IUCN Global Standard for NbS™, along with other sustainability concepts and instruments currently used in the context of aquaculture. The application of the IUCN Global Standard for NbS™’s to two case studies is explored: seaweed farming in Zanzibar in marine conservation areas and shrimp farming coupled with mangrove restoration in Indonesia. The results show that the NbS concept underpinning the IUCN Global Standard for NbS™ could help in the overall assessment of aquaculture systems and improve their sustainability by highlighting both their positive outcomes and issues requiring further examination in relation to marine biodiversity benefits, socio-economic development, and/or governance. The IUCN Global Standard for NbS™ could provide an operational framework to implement existing concepts, such as the Ecosystem Approach to Aquaculture, contribute to clarifying critical issues in aquaculture development, and provide guidance for the development of a new type of aquaculture project, specifically designed as NbS. This finding advocates the context-dependent exploration and promotion of aquaculture projects as NbS. Copyright © 2023 Le Gouvello, Cohen-Shacham, Herr, Spadone, Simard and Brugere.",,,,,10,,Front.

This paper argues for effective governance to support processes that apply principles of sustainable development and an ecosystem approach to decide about economic activities at sea such as aquaculture. It describes opportunities, benefits and synergies between aquaculture and MPAs as a basis for wider debate. The scope is not a comprehensive analysis of aquaculture and MPAs, but rather to present examples of positive interactions between aquaculture activities and MPAs. The unintended negative consequences are also discussed to present balanced arguments. This work draws from four workshops held in 2015 and 2016 and used to collect information from about 100 experts representing various sectors and perspectives. It is recognized that aquaculture is an important activity in terms of sustainable development. It can play a role in providing food security, poverty alleviation and economic resilience, in particular for MPA local communities, and contribute to wild stock enhancement, as an alternative to overfishing and for providing services to the ecosystem. This study showed that there is a need from both aquaculture and MPA sides for clarity of objectives and willingness for open and extensive dialogue. The paper concludes by describing a number of tools and methods for supporting greater synergies between aquaculture and MPAs. The results from this work have already helped to build a common understanding between conservation and aquaculture and initiate a rapprochement for increasing synergies.

Both the methods available to map essential fish habitats and the usefulness of these maps are discussed in this paper. Generally, the first step to obtain maps of essential fish habitats consists in choosing one of the numerous existing statistical approaches to build robust habitat suitability models linking relevant descriptors of the marine environment to the spatial distribution of fish presence or density. When these descriptors are exhaustively known, i.e. maps are available for each of them, geo-referenced predictions from these models and their related uncertainty may be imported into Geographic Information Systems for the quantitative identification and characterization of key sites for the marine living resources. The second part of this paper deals with the usefulness of such quantitative maps for management purposes. These maps allow for the quantitative identification of the different habitats that are required for these marine resources to complete their life cycles and enable to measure their respective importance for population renewal and conservation. The consequences of anthropogenic pressures - not only fishing but also land reclamation, aggregate extractions or degradation of habitat quality (e.g. nutrient excess or xenobiotics loadings, invasive species or global change) - on living resources, may also be simulated from such habitat models. These quantitative maps may serve as input in specific conservation planning software based on the systematic conservation approach. Fish habitat maps thus may help decision makers to select relevant protection areas and design coherent MPA networks which objectives are to sustain fishing resources and fisheries. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,19-Aug,,,87,,Ocean Coast.

Environmental concerns create a growing urgency for development of environmental regulations under commercial exploitation. Here, we consider an ecosystem services approach to the environmental policy and management of deep-sea mineral resources. Ecosystem services link the environment and human well-being, and can help improve sustainability and stewardship of the deep sea by providing a quantitative basis for decision-making. This paper briefly reviews ecosystem services provided by habitats targeted for deep-seabed mining (hydrothermal vents, seamounts, nodule provinces, and phosphate-rich margins), and presents practical steps to incorporate ecosystem services into deep-seabed mining regulation. The linkages and translation between ecosystem structure, ecological function (including supporting services), and ecosystem services are highlighted as generating human benefits. We consider criteria for identifying which ecosystem services are vulnerable to potential mining impacts, the role of ecological functions in providing ecosystem services, development of ecosystem service indicators, valuation of ecosystem services, and implementation of ecosystem services concepts. The first three steps put ecosystem services into a deep-seabed mining context; the last two steps help to incorporate ecosystem services into a management and decision-making framework. Phases of environmental planning discussed in the context of ecosystem services include conducting strategic environmental assessments, collecting baseline data, monitoring, establishing marine protected areas, assessing cumulative impacts, identifying thresholds and triggers, and creating an environmental damage compensation regime. We also identify knowledge gaps that need to be addressed in order to operationalize ecosystem services concepts in deep-seabed mining regulation and propose potential tools to fill them. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,486-503,,,137,,Deep-Sea Res.

Ideally, MPA design should incorporate movement data from multiple target species to ensure sufficient habitat is protected. We used long-term acoustic telemetry and network analysis to determine the fine-scale space use of five shark and one turtle species at a remote atoll in the Seychelles, Indian Ocean, and evaluate the efficacy of a proposed MPA. Results revealed strong, species-specific habitat use in both sharks and turtles, with corresponding variation in MPA use. Defining the MPA’s boundary from the edge of the reef flat at low tide instead of the beach at high tide (the current best in Seychelles) significantly increased the MPA’s coverage of predator movements by an average of 34%. Informed by these results, the larger MPA was adopted by the Seychelles government, demonstrating how telemetry data can improve shark spatial conservation by affecting policy directly. © 2016 The Author(s) Published by the Royal Society.

To this end, accurate estimations of species' current population sizes are necessary for future monitoring and conservation. Here, we used distance sampling protocols to generate abundance and density estimates for 11 species of birds occupying the Gondwanan rainforests of the Tweed Caldera on the Queensland-New South Wales border. Data were collected along two elevational gradients in subtropical rainforest between September 2015 and October 2016. Half-normal functions with cosine adjustments were used to calculate the density of each species per km2. We used a GIS to determine the total area of suitable habitat available in protected areas adjacent to the sampling locations (~425 km2) and then extrapolated the density estimates to generate estimates of population size for each target species in the study area. Estimated population sizes ranged from 473 719 (Yellow-throated Scrubwren Sericornis citreogularis) to 21 841 (White-throated Treecreeper Cormobates leucophaea). The standard error (SE) associated with the population estimate of the White-throated Treecreeper was large, as was the SE associated with the Eastern Yellow Robin Eopsaltria australis (estimated population 235 084), Green Catbird Ailuroedus crassirostris (69 731) and Grey Fantail Rhipidura fuliginosa (124 534).

Algeria has shown a growing commitment to protecting its coastal ecosystems. Despite Posidonia oceanica being the most significant and extensively studied seagrass species in the Mediterranean, efforts to compile and analyze comprehensive spatial data on its distribution across the basin are still limited. This study aimed to map the current distribution of P. oceanica meadows in the newly established MPA of the Edough Mountains in Annaba, located in northeastern Algeria. In 2023, the surface water quality in the area was found to be satisfactory, with an average temperature of 22°C, a pH of 8.09, salinity of 37, a dissolved oxygen concentration of 6.9 mg/l, and a total suspended solids concentration of 0.21 mg/l. The upper limits of P. oceanica meadows, along with surrounding soft and rocky habitats, were surveyed using GPS over a 37km stretch, from Cap de Garde to Roche Axine, covering half of the MPA. The survey, which included 278 stations, identified 97 seagrass beds in good conservation status, with minimal epiphyte presence, at depths ranging from-1.5 to-24 meters.

Based on their taxonomic diversity, some insular regions have been identified as key areas of conservation. Recently, systematic conservation planning has advocated for the use of multiple biodiversity facets to protect unique evolutionary and functional processes. Here, we identified priority areas for threatened insular endemic mammals across three key dimensions of biodiversity (taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional), as well as their protection level and threats affecting them. Location: Worldwide. Methods: We applied diversity–area relationships to identify insular regions that harbored a disproportionately high rate of threatened endemic mammal diversity (whether taxonomic, phylogenetic, or functional) given their area for 1,799 islands across 19 insular regions. We also assessed the level of protection and the threats affecting biodiversity within each insular region. Results: We showed a fairly good congruence between top-ranked insular regions based on taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional diversity. Specifically, we identified four hotspots for endemic mammalian conservation through the three diversity facets: Indo-Burma, Madagascar and the Indian Ocean Islands, Mesoamerica and Galápagos Islands, and Wallacea. Except for Mesoamerica and Galápagos Islands, the protected areas coverage is low (<8%) within the hotspots. We also showed that most of the mammal species occurring in the hotspots was prone to either direct threats that affect their mortality or indirect threats that only alter their habitat, while mixed threats such as biological invasions or climate change were less represented in those regions. Main conclusions: Our findings reinforce the importance of investigating the multiple diversity facets in a conservation concern and to link with the associated threats to ensure an effective conservation strategy. © 2021 The Authors.

Because conservation efforts do not always specify standards or guidelines for the production of habitat maps, results can vary dramatically. As representations of real environmental characteristics, habitat maps are highly sensitive to how they are produced. In this review paper, I present four concepts that are known to cause variation in spatial representation and prediction of habitats: the methodology used, the quality and scale of the data, and the choice of variables in regards to fitness for use. I then discuss the potential antinomy associated with the use of habitat maps in conservation: while habitat maps have become an invaluable tool to inform and assist decision-making, maps of the same area built using different methods and data may provide dissimilar representations, thus providing different information and possibly leading to different decisions. Exploring the theories and methods that have proved effective in terrestrial conservation and the spatial sciences, and how they can be integrated in marine habitat mapping practices, could help improve maps used to support marine conservation efforts and result in more reliable products to inform conservation decisions. Having a strong, consistent, transparent, repeatable, and science-based protocol for data collection and mapping is essential for effectively supporting decision-makers in developing conservation and management plans. The development of user-friendly tools to assist in the application of such protocol is crucial to a widespread improvement in practices. I discuss the potential to use interactive and collaborative Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to encourage the conservation and management community, from data collectors and mapmakers to decision-makers, to move toward a digital resilience and to develop such science-based protocol. Until standards and protocols are developed, habitat maps should always be interpreted with care, and the methods and metadata associated with their production should always be explicitly stated.",,,,,4,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000457690600286,,,,,,,BIODIVERSITY DATA; data quality; data selection; ECOLOGICAL KNOWLEDGE; ERROR PROPAGATION; GIS; habitat mapping; IMAGE CLASSIFICATION; INCORPORATING UNCERTAINTY; MACROBENTHIC COMMUNITIES; management information systems; marine conservation; MARINE PROTECTED AREA; scale; SEABED CLASSIFICATION; SPATIAL DATA QUALITY; species distribution modeling; SPECIES DISTRIBUTION MODELS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Despite holding positive attitudes towards marine biodiversity protection, fishers were generally unsupportive of the new zoning plan 5 years after its implementation. Fishers' lack of support was related to the perception that they had not been adequately engaged in the rezoning process and the perception of significant impacts of the zoning plan on fishing businesses. Fishers generally believed that the new zoning plan had a negative impact on their access to productive fishing areas, the numbers of fish they catch, the profitability of their fishing business, and their personal income. In response to the new no-take zones, fishers tended to redistribute their fishing activity to locations closer to their home port, and to locations already known to them through their previous fishing, resulting in an increase in high density fishing locations within the park. Despite the impacts that fishers experienced, most reported that they have adapted their fishing activity and fishing business at least moderately well to the new zoning plan, suggesting that many of the impacts experienced by fishers might be short-term and may decline over time as fishers learn to adapt to the new zoning system. The information provided should prove valuable as a baseline for continued monitoring of the costs and benefits of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park rezoning into the future. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,226-234,,1,36,,Mar.

These sessile cnidarians are one of the most valuable marine resources due to the use of their skeleton for jewelry and handcrafted artifacts. The exploitation of precious corals beds generally follows a boom and bust cycle resulting in a worldwide overexploitation of this natural resource. The sustainability of coral fisheries is therefore unambiguously questioned. Discussions regarding international regulations on harvesting or trade have regularly risen in the last decades. As an example, the genus Corallium, which includes some of the most harvested and valuables precious coral species, was unsuccessfully proposed for listing in Appendix II of the Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) in 2007 and 2009. To date, there is no international consensus on the management of coral beds (but see 2011 FAO-GFCM recommendations for the Mediterranean Sea). Each country manages independently its stocks of precious corals inducing contrasted conservation policies. Considering the benefit in trading precious corals and the low enforcement of existing regulations, poaching is very attractive and globally expanding, principally within marine protected areas where populations are healthier and colonies are generally bigger. In this context, innovative management tools and strategies should be developed to ensure the protection of these species. Recent advances in wildlife forensics sciences and more particularly in molecular forensics methods and associated statistical analyses open new avenues to struggle against poaching and illegal trade in precious corals. We will introduce this chapter with general considerations regarding the exploitation of biological resources and accordingly the aims of molecular forensics applied in conservation biology. Then, we will present the methods used for species identification with particular emphasize on DNA barcoding methods. We will discuss the application of these methods for precious coral identification. Considering the genetic data available in precious corals, we will illustrate our discussion with an example of DNA barcoding in Corallium/Paracorallium species. We will present the atypical evolutionary features of the mitochondrial genome of these species and the implications for species identification. Once species have been identified, the identification of the geographical origin of individuals or populations may be of interest in order to distinguish between legal and illegal (e.g. within marine protected area) harvesting. In a third part, we will therefore expose different molecular and statistical methods that can be used to assign individuals to their populations of origin. As a case study, we will present the data resulting from the genotyping of nuclear microsatellite loci in the red coral, Corallium rubrum, a precious coral inhabiting the Mediterranean Sea and part of the Eastern Atlantic. The genetic structure and the repartition of the genetic diversity of C. rubrum are thoroughly characterized over the Western Mediterranean Basin. We will discuss the potential of this database of genotypes to characterize the origin of red coral colonies using different assignment methods. An empirical evaluation will be performed to test the statistical power of this dataset. The last part of the chapter will be focused on the perspectives offered by the development of next generation sequencing methods for the molecular forensics in precious corals. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.",,729-745,,,,,,,,,,,Springer International Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: The Cnidaria, past, present and Future: The World of Medusa and her Sisters DOI: 10.1007/978-3-319-31305-4_45",,,,Assignment tests; Corallium; DNA barcode; Microsatellites; Mitochondrial DNA; Molecular forensics; Next generation sequencing; Precious corals; Species identifi cation; Species identification,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Focusing on the orange stony coral, Astroides calycularis, we (a) characterized the pattern of neutral genetic diversity across the distribution range; (b) gave insights into the underlying processes; and (c) discussed conservation implications with emphasis on a national park located on a hotspot of genetic diversity. Location: South Mediterranean Sea and Zembra National Park. Methods: We combined new data from 12 microsatellites in 13 populations located in the Centre and in the Western Periphery of the distribution range with a published dataset including 16 populations from the Western and Eastern Peripheries. We analysed the relationship among parameters of genetic diversity (H e, Ar (g)) and structure (population-specific F ST) and two measures of geographic peripherality. We compared two estimators of pairwise genetic structure (G ST, D EST) across the distribution range. The evolutionary and demographic history of the populations following the Last Glacial Maximum was reconstructed using approximate Bayesian computations and maximum-likelihood analyses. We inferred the contemporary connectivity among populations from Zembra National Park and with the neighbouring area of Cap Bon. Results: We demonstrate a decrease in genetic diversity and an increase in genetic differentiation from the Centre to the Eastern and Western Peripheries of the distribution range. Populations from Zembra show the highest genetic diversity reported in the species. We identified a spillover effect towards Cap Bon. Main conclusions: The patterns of genetic diversity and differentiation are most likely explained by “the postglacial range expansion hypothesis” rather than the “central–peripheral hypothesis.” Enforcement of conservation measures should be considered to protect this genetic diversity pattern, in particular when considering the low effective population size inferred at many sites. © 2021 The Authors.

Broad-scale resource inventories of coastal seagrasses were completed in the 1980s and were used in marine park and fisheries zoning to protect some seagrasses. At least eleven of the fifteen known species in the region reach their latitudinal limits of distribution in Queensland and at least two Halophila species may be endemic to Queensland or northeastern Australia. The importance of seagrasses to Dugongs Dugong dugon, Green Turtles Chelonia mydas and commercially valuable prawn fisheries, will continue to strongly influence directions in seagrass research and conservation management in Queensland. Widespread loss of seagrasses following natural cyclone and flood events in some locations has had serious consequences to regional populations of Dugong. However, the impacts to Queensland fisheries are little studied. Agricultural land use practices may exacerbate the effects of natural catastrophic events, but the long-term impacts of nutrients, pesticides and sediment loads on Queensland seagrasses are also unknown. Most areas studied are nutrient limited and human impacts on seagrasses in Queensland are low to moderate, and could include increases in habitat since modern settlement. Most impacts are in southern, populated localities where shelter and water conditions ideal for productive seagrass habitat are often targets for port development, and are at the downstream end of heavily modified catchments. For Queensland to avoid losses experienced by other states, incremental increases in impacts associated with population and development pressure must be managed. Seagrass areas receive priority consideration in oil spill management within the Great Barrier Reef and coastal ports. Present fisheries legislation for marine plant protection, marine parks and area closures to trawl fishing help protect inshore seagrass prawn nursery and Dugong feeding habitat, but seagrasses in deep water do not yet receive any special zoning protection. Efficacy of the various Local, State and Commonwealth Acts and planning programmes for seagrass conservation is limited by the expanse and remoteness of Queensland's northern coast, but is improving through broad-based education programmes. Institutional support is sought to enable community groups to augment limited research and monitoring programmes with local ""habitat watch"" programmes. Research is helping to describe the responses of seagrass to natural and human impacts and to determine acceptable levels of changes in seagrass meadows and water quality conditions that may cause those changes. The management of loss and regeneration of seagrass is benefiting from new information collected on life histories and mechanisms of natural recovery in Queensland species. Maintenance of Queensland's seagrasses systems will depend on improved community awareness, regional and long-term planning and active changes in coastal land use to contain overall downstream impacts and stresses.",,325-328,,4,5,,Pac.

The Nakdong River in South Korea is nearly 526 km long, and has a drainage basin of around 23,817 km2. It is subject to natural erosion and sedimentation, and there is also the potential for disturbance by various human activities, including water diversion and reservoir construction, and other large construction projects in the river estuary. The Noksan dike, built in April 1934, blocks the flow of the west Nakdong River. The Nakdong River Estuary (NRE) barrage in Busan Metropolitan City was completed in November 1987 to regulate the flow of the Nakdong River. In this study, Marine Environmental Information System (MEIS) data collected after May 2015 were used to support marine spatial planning (MSP) in the brackish water zone. The NRE and surrounding locations can be divided into areas managed by the government, protected marine areas, areas for sand mining, areas for the development of tourist attractions, areas of research conservation, areas where an environmental risk assessment would be required prior to use by ships, military areas, and coastal areas subject to safety management measures. Data on environmental changes in the estuarine watershed were used during the preparation of the NRE for partial opening and drainage extension in 2019. Data supporting MSP in the target area should be collected, processed, and analyzed to facilitate future decision-making, and databases should be established based on geological field surveys. Furthermore, protected areas should be designated according to governmental guidelines. All scientific data used in these processes should be validated, and spatial data to facilitate MSP should be produced. © Coastal Education and Research Foundation, Inc. 2020.",,860-864,,sp1,95,,J.

The eastern blue groper, Achoerodus viridis, is a long-lived, protogynous hermaphrodite, and an 'iconic' marine species in eastern Australia, with several MPAs having been established specifically for their protection. Site fidelity, habitat use, and home range size were assessed for 29 adult eastern blue gropers monitored for up to 374days using passive acoustic telemetry within and around a small marine reserve. The fish exhibited long residency times and no movement was recorded between adjacent reefs, suggesting sand acts as a natural barrier to movement. Core ranges were calculated using 50% kernel utilization distributions (KUD) and estimated between 0.005 and 0.092km2. Males had larger core ranges than females or fish of indeterminate sex. There was no statistical difference between the breeding/non-breeding seasons. Home ranges were calculated using 95% KUD and ranged between 0.03 and 0.54km2. Home range size was largest for males and significantly larger for all sexes in the breeding season. Fish tagged in the 'no-take' area of the MPA had smaller home ranges than fish tagged in the area where fishing is permitted. This study indicates that even relatively small MPAs can provide effective protection for adult eastern blue groper, supporting the proposition that large reef dwellers with long residency times can be used as flagship species to gain public support for the designation of MPAs. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,174-186,,2,25,,Aquatic Conserv.

The Korean Peninsula covers 222,403km2 and contains a mountainous interior, many islands, and biodiversity-rich coastal and marine areas. Biodiversity on the peninsula is not well documented, especially in North Korea, but the peninsula is estimated to host at least 100,000 species, and perhaps manyfold more. Roughly 6% of species identified to date are endemic, and among vertebrate species in South Korea, 29% of mammals, 14% of birds, 23% of freshwater fishes, 48% of reptiles, and 60% of amphibians are estimated to be at risk of extinction or have been extirpated from the peninsula. The situation is likely worse in North Korea. Species still occurring on the Korean Peninsula have survived near total deforestation of the landscape, heavy fishing, pollution, and, in South Korea, a period of rapid urbanization since the end of the Korean War in 1953. Conservation challenges are particularly dire in North Korea, where environmental degradation has impaired the country's ability to sustain agriculture, clean air and water, and other fundamental ecosystem services. Conservation faces significant challenges in South Korea, too, given the country's goal to continue to develop one of the world's most advanced and urbanized economies. Natural resource managers in both North and South Korea are pursuing large-scale restoration of forests, wetlands, lakes and rivers, and coastlines as a primary conservation strategy. In addition, South Korea is aggressively developing a ""green economy"" and is hosting international environmental meetings, attempting to take a leadership role as a convener of innovative thinking in conservation. North and South Korea are also implementing more common land protection techniques, such as the creation of national parks and other protected areas. These protected areas include the exceptional case of the 100,000-ha (250km×4km) Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) that forms the border between North and South Korea. The DMZ was not created for conservation reasons, but has provided an important refuge for many species. Other well-known protected areas include Jeju Island and Baekdu Daegan Mountain, both of which host many species important for conservation. Together, these conservation actions show promise and may allow the Korean Peninsula to preserve its biodiversity and regain some of its important ecosystem services. South Korea, in particular, provides an example for attempting to balance economic development and conservation in an area with a long history of human exploitation. North Korea is much farther behind in its conservation efforts, but is now beginning planning for large-scale restoration projects, which if implemented may help reverse its long trend of environmental degradation. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,262-276,,,176,,Biol.

Among them, oceanographic connectivity driven by dispersal through water transport is hypothesized to play a pivotal role, yet its relative contribution has not been addressed at the global scale. Here, we test how present-day oceanographic connectivity is correlated with the distribution of genetic diversity of marine forests across the ocean. Location: Global. Time period: Contemporary. Major taxa studied: Marine forests of brown macroalgae (order: Fucales, Ishigeales, Laminariales and Tilopteridales). Methods: Through literature review, we compiled a comprehensive dataset of genetic differentiation, encompassing 699 populations of 30 species. A biophysical model coupled with network analyses estimated multigenerational oceanographic connectivity and centrality across the marine forest global distribution. This approach integrated propagule dispersive capacity and long-distance dispersal events. Linear mixed models tested the relative contribution of site-specific processes, connectivity and centrality in explaining genetic differentiation. Results: We show that spatiality-dependent eco-evolutionary processes, as described by our models, are prominent drivers of genetic differentiation in marine forests (significant models in 91.43% of the cases with an average R2 of 0.50 ± 0.07). Specifically, we reveal that 18.7% of genetic differentiation variance is explicitly induced by predicted contemporary connectivity and centrality. Moreover, we demonstrate that long-distance dispersal is key in connecting populations of species distributed across large water masses and continents. Main conclusions: Our findings highlight the role of present-day oceanographic connectivity in shaping the extant distribution of genetic diversity of marine forests on a global scale, with significant implications for biogeography and evolution. This understanding can pave the way for future research aimed at guiding conservation efforts, including the designation of well-connected marine protected areas, which is particularly relevant for sessile ecosystems structuring species such as brown macroalgae. © 2024 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,,,8,33,,Global Ecol.

Although published range maps show continuous distributions for many lemurs throughout the region, there are few data on lemur community structure in the corridor. We aimed to determine lemur community structure, with its ecological correlates (altitude, agriculture, selective logging, and hunting), in the Fandriana-Marolambo forest corridor. We surveyed 7 sites and sighted 4 nocturnal taxa (Avahi laniger, Cheirogaleus major, Lepilemur mustelinus, and Microcebus rufus) and 6 diurnal taxa (Eulemur rubriventer, E. fulvus rufus, E. f. fulvus, Propithecus diadema edwardsi, Hapalemur griseus griseus, and Varecia variegata variegata). Composition of the lemur community was broadly similar to that of nearby protected areas (Ranomafana and Mantadia National Parks). However, we sighted no Hapalemur aureus, H. simus, or Indri indri, and observed Propithecus diadema edwardsi and Varecia variegata variegata at only 1 site each. We sighted an apparent hybrid form of Eulemur fulvus fulvus and E. f. rufus that may represent a new hybrid zone for lemurs. After testing for spatial autocorrelation, lemur diversity correlates negatively with altitude and agricultural intensity.

Such information can be difficult to obtain, especially from hard-to-capture or far-ranging taxa. Global-positioning-system (GPS) receivers that have remote data-acquisition capability via satellite-communication networks offer an effective means of tracking highly mobile animals; however, often the equipment and operational costs of these devices are prohibitive. Aim To evaluate the operational performance and potential of an inexpensive, commercially available satellite-download GPS receiver that can be easily modified for use on wildlife, and to demonstrate its utility for revealing novel information on individual animal movements in an important wildlife management context. Methods We added external batteries and supplementary waterproofing to 'off-the-shelf' SPOT Trace® GPS receivers (?120 USD; Spot LLC, Covington, LA) that transmit recorded location data to users through the Globalstar satellite network. We then deployed these devices on eight wild black swans (Cygnus atratus) inhabiting a large inland marine harbor adjacent to Auckland International Airport and assessed the GPS units' operational performance and overall cost effectiveness. Key results During field trials with the tracking devices lasting up to 25 days we were able to collect thousands of precision location observations from the swans without the need for recapture. Cost-per-fix was only ?0.04 USD - up to an order of magnitude lower than some satellite-download GPS receivers manufactured specifically for wildlife. We provide novel information about the swans' patterns of activity, movement, space-use, habitat preferences and responses to actions taken by airport staff to scare problem individuals from threat zones. Conclusions User-modified satellite-download GPS devices can be a highly cost-effective means of tracking the movements of animals. Implications Knowledge of where and when swans present the greatest likely threat to air traffic and how they respond to displacement from restricted areas near the airport will be useful in devising threat-management plans. The ready availability of affordable remote-download GPS receivers will provide many new opportunities to study the movement and/or space-use patterns of wildlife and incorporate such information into a broad range of research and management programs. © CSIRO 2017.",,558-564,,06-Jul,44,,Wildl.

Location: Japanese archipelago, Ryukyu archipelago and Izu-Bonin oceanic islands. Methods: We modelled the distributions of 6,325 species (amphibians, birds, freshwater fish, mammals, plants and reptiles) using 4,389,489 occurrence data points. We then applied the Zonation software for spatial conservation prioritization. First, we identified environmental drivers underpinning taxon-specific biodiversity patterns. Second, we analysed each taxon individually to understand baseline priority patterns. Third, we combined all taxa into an inclusive analysis to identify the most important PAN expansions. Results: Biodiversity patterns were well explained by geographical factors (climate, habitat stability, isolation and area), but their explanatory power differed between the taxa. There was remarkably little overlap between priority areas for the individual higher taxa. The inclusive prioritization analysis across all taxa identified priority regions, in particular in southern subtropical and mountainous areas. Expanding the PAN up to 17% would cover most of the ranges for rare and/or restricted-range species. On average, approximately 30% of the ranges of all species could be covered by the 17% expansion identified here. Main conclusions: Our analyses identified top candidates for the expansion of Japan's protected area network. Taxon-specific prioritization was informative for understanding the conservation priority patterns of different taxa associated with unique biogeographical processes. For the basis of PAN expansion, we recommend multi-taxon prioritization as an area-efficient compromise that reflects taxon-specific priority patterns. Spatial prioritization across multiple taxa provides a promising start for the development of conservation plans with the aim of long-term persistence of biodiversity on the East Asian islands. © 2018 The Authors.

The expectation is that such efforts will change local knowledge, attitudes and ultimately behavior. This is one of the first studies to assess the efficacy of using education and outreach activities to improve community knowledge and attitudes about an MPA. Random sample surveys in 2005 and 2010 (. n=1213) before and after education and outreach activities are compared. Program budgets for the same period give the investment levels. With an investment level averaging US$24 per capita/year, the result was an average increase of 33% in ""yes"" responses across 15 indicators of knowledge and attitudes towards marine conservation. The increase in knowledge and positive attitudes was associated with a large decrease in ""not sure"" responses, suggesting that community members with fewer initial preconceptions are the most effective target for education and outreach activities. This study demonstrates that investments in MPA education and outreach can generate increases in local knowledge and positive attitudes, and changing knowledge and attitudes is expected to contribute to the long-term compliance with MPA regulations. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,1005-1011,,5,36,,Mar.

Conservation Units are relevant to biodiversity when considering factors such as hunting, agricultural expansion and forest fires. The conservation of native vegetation fragments under more suitable management plans, recovery areas and surveys are essential to the mammals preservation.

To carry out this study it was performed weekly rounds in search for direct and indirect mammals traces existing at forest reserve. It is reported the presence of 27 species in the study area. According to the IUCN Red List, four species are vulnerable to extinction: tapir (Tapirus terrestris), giant anteater (Myrmecophaga tridactyla), giant armadillo (Priodontes maximus) and oncilla (Leopardus guttulus). Two species were recorded nearly threatened species: maned wolf (Chrysocyon brachyurus) and pampas deer (Ozotocerus bezoarticus).

Although population genetic studies could greatly benefit connectivity assessments between MPAs, genetic data are rarely used in MPAn planning. Here, we aim to illustrate the use of a multispecies and multilocus approach to provide recommendations for MPAn design, highlighting the importance of the species selected and the analyses performed. Our study is focused on the Southern Ocean, an area of keen multinational interest given its scientific significance, economic importance and its unique, shared legal status. Location: South Georgia and South Sandwich Islands MPA (SGSSI MPA), the South Orkney Islands and the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP)—where an MPA was proposed in 2018 (Domain 1 MPA) but has not been approved by the Commission for the Conservation of the Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR). Methods: Our datasets include 819 individuals from five different species with contrasting life-history strategies: two nemerteans (Antarctonemertes valida and A. riesgoae), two annelids (Pterocirrus giribeti and Neanthes kerguelensis) and one sponge (Mycale [Oxymycale] acerata). To identify genetic connectivity patterns in our study area, spanning roughly 2500 km, we used the COI mitochondrial marker and genome-wide ddRADseq-derived SNPs. Results: A consistent lack of connectivity between SGSSI MPA and the WAP was found for all studied species. Additionally, our data indicated a stepping-stone role for the South Orkney Islands between these two genetically differentiated regions. Main conclusions: Our results reveal how the application of comparative phylogeography and population genomics can guide policymakers in their decision-making process during MPAn design. We detected priority areas for conservation in Antarctica, including the South Orkney Islands and the WAP, providing strong evidence for the implementation of the Domain 1 MPA. © 2022 The Authors.

In this context, artisanal fisheries, and in particular small-scale coastal fisheries, appear as relevant alternatives for a sustainable use of coastal resources. Marine Protected Areas (MPA) are more and more used as management tools for these fisheries, as protection effects and targeted access regulations may benefit to commercial fishers. Managers and scientists need then quantitative information not only to adapt their management to the fishing activity present on their territory, but also to estimate the effects of MPA management on it. This study provides catch and effort estimates that are essential for appraising and managing the artisanal fishery in the CÔte Bleue Marine Park (CBMP), a French Mediterranean MPA including two No-Take Zones of different age and size. A field protocol was defined and implemented between July 2009 and June 2010 within the CBMP. Seven métiers were identified and characterized by target species, gear type, fishing grounds and fishing periods. During the one-year studied period, 3512 fishing trips and 4645 fishing operations were performed by 30 active boats in the CÔte Bleue fishing territory, amounting to 9500. km of immersed nets. In total, approximately 130. tons of catch were landed in the six CBMP harbors, out of which 58% depend on the three main species caught on the CÔte Bleue: hake (Merluccius merluccius), gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata) and common sole (Solea solea). The presented methodology could be part of a long term monitoring requiring close collaboration with local fishers. It enables adaptive management with respect to changes in fishing pressure (from inside and outside the MPA) that may impact the environment and its resources. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.",,93-101,,,154,,Fish.

Following these events, which resulted in social, economic and political upheaval, and referred to as the ""shark crisis"", a scientific program with the aim of understanding shark behavior and ecology in Reunion Island was launched in 2012. It integrated spatial and temporal monitoring protocol of coastal uses allowing for the study of shark attack repercussions on the dynamics of 15 types of uses. In this paper, we bring shark and users observations together in order to assess human-shark interactions. Firstly, we assess the impacts that shark attacks have triggered in terms of users spatiotemporal distribution between 2011 and 2013. Secondly, we explore human-shark interactions in 2013 using cross-mapping techniques. Results show that three areas (Saint-Gilles, Trois-Bassins, Etang-Salé) have high levels of potential interaction and should be of high interest for the local authorities and stakeholders for further mitigation policies.

In this paper, we critically assess Canada’s declared protected area from multiple perspectives and, in particular, in relation to the intent of the United Nations (UN) Convention on Biological Diversity’s (CBD) Aichi Biodiversity Targets. We reveal how a complex suite of exceptions implemented through management plans and unclear regulations, as well as redefining marine use classifications, has been used to increase the declared protected area estate and celebrate conservation success, with little to no meaningful gains in the effective, in situ conservation of biodiversity. We argue that Canada has potentially placed itself in a more difficult position to achieve the goals and objectives outlined in the Zero Draft of the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework, including achieving the call for at least 10% of protected areas and OECMs to be under “strict protection”, which Canada is currently nowhere near achieving. We propose several major transformations to MPA policy, planning, and management, including reducing regulatory complexity, modernizing legislation, legislating timeframes for the implementation of connected networks of protected areas, and more effectively enabling Indigenous Peoples to assume their rightful roles as leaders in marine conservation through the establishment of Indigenous Protected Areas, which if enacted will better position Canada to achieve the genuine intent of many aspects of the UN CBD. © 2020, AESS.",,483-491,,4,10,,J.

In this paper, we provide the first progress report on protected and conserved coastal area in Canada. While 13.6 per cent of Canada’s coastal area is protected and conserved, there is substantial variation across Canada’s three oceans and Great Lakes, jurisdictional authorities, and marine/terrestrial ecosystems. Importantly, Manitoba (37.3 per cent) and the Yukon (45.1 per cent) have already achieved the 30 per cent coastal protection target of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KM-GBF). However, Newfoundland and Labrador (7 per cent) and the Northwest Territories (8 per cent) currently fall significantly short. Very poor protection is evident in several marine bioregions and terrestrial ecozones, including across the Arctic, the Newfoundland and Labrador Shelves (0.7 per cent) and the Hudson Bay Complex (5.1 per cent). The Great Lakes require urgent and focused conservation attention, with lakes Ontario (3.6 per cent) and Erie (3.7 per cent) exhibiting a dismal amount of coastal protected and conserved area.

Since the international conservation community agreed to a definition of OECMs in 2018, various Parties to the CBD have begun designating these areas and they are now being reported in global and national protected and conserved area databases. Using examples from Canada, this perspective details how the designation of some OECMs is circumventing the use of established and well-known decision support tools that work to uphold conservation standards, and why these designations may result in negligible gains for biodiversity. The perspective also details how labeling OECMs as “marine refuges” and “conserved areas” is misleading and can misinform the public on conservation success. To avoid the loss of biodiversity in ‘paper parks’ and eroding public trust in the institutions charged with effectively conserving biodiversity, the paper concludes by underscoring the need for new tools to evaluate the effectiveness of OECMs and new measures to hold countries accountable to protected and conserved area targets in the CBD so that their original intent is not further compromised in the post-2020 era of conservation. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,275,,Biol.

Much less documented, however, is the preceding phase in which higher trophic level species, previously not exploited or consumed locally, are increasingly added to the catch. Worldwide, this phase happened centuries ago due to technological developments and thus passed before scientific scrutiny and conservation awareness arose, leaving it largely unstudied. Here, we combine a historical reconstruction of fishery with a relatively recent fishing monitoring program to document this early phase in the Parc National du Banc d’Arguin in Mauritania, a marine protected area in Mauritania, West Africa. Long-term trends in mean trophic level of exploited species and total catches provide evidence for an increasing fishing pressure toward the top of the food web, and suggest that the state of “fishing down the food web” is now happening in this ecosystem.

Pneumonia often occurs secondary to influenza infection and accounts for a large proportion of the morbidity and mortality associated with seasonal and pandemic influenza outbreaks. We previously have shown that vaccination with Virus-like particles (VLPs) containing hemagglutinin (HA) of influenza virus reduces mortality caused by bacterial infections after an influenza infections in mice. The aim of this work is to study whether this protective effect may be potentiated by supplementing the HA preparation with the influenza neuraminidase (NA). Materials and methods. We studied the effect of Gag-VLPs with the influenza HA or NA from ?/PR/8/34 alone or in combination, in a lethal BALB/c mouse model of S. aureus infection after vaccine-matched or mismatched influenza virus challenge. Results. A cocktail of HA-Gag and NA-Gag-VLPs fully protected from weight loss, mortality and viral replication and significantly reduced the bacterial burden in the lungs of ?/PR/8/34 infected animals. Immunization with this cocktail HA-Gag-VLPs 100 ng + NA-Gag-VLPs 20 ng also protected 60% of animals from mortality associated with secondary bacterial S. aureus infection following a heterologous H1N1 influenza virus challenge, and led to the significant protection from weight loss and pulmonary pathogen replication even in the absence of HA-inhibition and NA-inhibition antibodies. Conclusion. Our results indicate that influenza vaccination may improve the outcome of a secondary bacterial pneumonia induced by S. aureus after influenza even when the virus is antigenically different from the vaccine strain. At the same time, in our model, the significance of the immunity to influenza virus HA was prevalent. © 2021, Central Research Institute for Epidemiology. All rights reserved.",,564-577,,6,97,,Zh.

Automated seabed classification algorithms are arising as faster and objective methods to generate benthic habitat maps to monitor these areas. However, no study has yet systematically compared their repeatability. Here we aim to address that problem by comparing the repeatability of maps derived from acoustic datasets collected on consecutive days using three automated seafloor classification algorithms: (1) Random Forest (RF), (2) K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) and (3) K means (KMEANS). The most robust and repeatable approach is then used to evaluate the change in seafloor habitats between 2012 and 2015 within the Greater Haig Fras Marine Conservation Zone, Celtic Sea, UK. Our results demonstrate that only RF and KNN provide statistically repeatable maps, with 60.3% and 47.2% agreement between consecutive days. Additionally, this study suggests that in low-relief areas, bathymetric derivatives are non-essential input parameters, while backscatter textural features, in particular Grey Level Co-occurrence Matrices, are substantially more effective in the detection of different habitats. Habitat persistence in the test area between 2012 and 2015 was 48.8%, with swapping of habitats driving the changes in 38.2% of the area. Overall, this study highlights the importance of investigating the repeatability of automated seafloor classification methods before they can be fully used in the monitoring of benthic habitats. © 2020 by the authors.",,,,10,12,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI AG,,,,ACCURACY; AGREEMENT; automated seafloor classification; Automated seafloor classification; Automation; autonomous underwater vehicles; Autonomous underwater vehicles; BACKSCATTER; benthic habitat maps; Benthic habitat maps; Classification (of information); Classification algorithm; Classification methods; Co-occurrence-matrix; Conservation; Decision trees; DISCRIMINATION; Ecosystems; Environmental protection; FEATURES; FUTURE; Grey level co-occurrence matrices; Grey Level Co-occurrence Matrices; IMAGE-ANALYSIS; K nearest neighbours (k-NN); K-means clustering; machine learning algorithms; Machine learning algorithms; Marine conservations; Marine protected area; Nearest neighbor search; Objective methods; Seabed classifications; sidescan sonar; Sidescan sonar; SONAR,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Contamination patterns of thick-lipped grey mullet from two Mediterranean coastal lagoons within a protected area in Italy were assessed and compared in order to evaluate their overall quality status and to collect information that can provide useful feedback on management choices aimed at enhancing environmental quality and biodiversity conservation. The quality status of the two lagoons was evaluated by an environmental assessment methodology based on indicators of direct and indirect human pressures, while a broad range of analyses were carried out to determine the presence and concentration of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and metals in fish muscle tissue. A good quality status resulted for both lagoons, and an overall limited anthropogenic impact in the surrounding area. This could account for POPs and metal contamination levels found in mullet, although limited, and relating to their patterns. The overlap of results achieved with the two evaluation approaches can provide support for management choices in Mediterranean lagoon environments, especially for those committed to the protection and conservation of biodiversity. © 2020 by the authors.

It is therefore necessary to protect and monitor such areas. The work conducted, reported in the present paper, aimed to verify the quality of soil in most wetlands in eastern Sicily. Specifically, four areas were studied: three Oriented Nature Reserves (RNO), the Saline di Priolo, with the adjacent Penisola di Magnisi, the Saline di Siracusa, and the Faunistic Oasis of Vendicari1, and one Special Protection Area (SPA), the Biviere di Lentini. The study areas were sampled in 12 different sites, in spring and in autumn, to monitor soil fauna and assess the soil biological quality through the calculation of the QBS-ar. The results represent the first data relating to the QBS-ar in Sicily and, in particular, relating to wetlands. The QBS-ar values recorded were all higher, for both seasons, than the averages reported for land use by Menta et al., 2018. The statistical analysis regarding annual QBS-ar divides the sites into two groups: Saline di Priolo1, Marianelli1, Cittadella1, Vendicari1, Biviere di Lentini2 with a QBS-ar > 200 and Biviere di Lentini1, Saline di Priolo2, Penisola di Magnisi1, Penisola di Magnisi2, Saline di Siracusa1 and Saline di Siracusa2 with QBS-ar < 200; Calamosche1 site show no significant difference between the two groups. Although the number of individuals varied considerably in the two seasons, there are no seasonal differences in the number of taxa and in the QBS-ar. The chemical-physical parameters that influenced the fauna composition and the QBS-ar were mostly those related to the soil texture; some groups were positively correlated with the percentage of silt, while others were negatively correlated with the percentage of sand. The QBS-ar show the same correlations with silt and sand. Proximity or non-proximity to water did not determine variations in the fauna composition and in the QBS-ar values. Soil salinity appeared to be a factor influencing the fauna composition, but further studies are needed to confirm such relief. © 2023",,,,,153,,Ecol.

The scant attention paid to ESs in the operational context of MMPs, MPs and SEA reports, particularly as regards their regulative framework, entails that the issue of the protection of ESs has to be carefully taken into account within the process of the definition and establishment of MPs through an SEA report that integrates the MPs and MMPs LFs. © 2016 by the authors.",,,,10,8,,Sustainability,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI,,,,biodiversity; conservation management; conservation measures; Conservation measures; conservation status; ecosystem service; ecosystem services; Ecosystem services; environmental impact assessment; environmental planning; environmental quality; European Union; FRAMEWORK; Italy; Natura 2000 Network; POTENTIALS; regulatory framework; Sardinia; SITES; spatial planning; Spatial planning; strategic environmental assessment; Strategic environmental assessment; STRATEGIC ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT; WORLDS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Metabarcoding can be used as a powerful molecular tool to complement traditional biodiversity monitoring, as total environmental DNA can be analyzed from complex samples containing DNA of different origin. The aim of this research was to demonstrate the potential of pollen DNA metabarcoding using the chloroplast trnL partial gene sequencing to characterize plant biodiversity. Collecting airborne biological particles with gravimetric Tauber traps in four Natura 2000 habitats within the Natural Park of Paneveggio Pale di San Martino (Italian Alps), at three-time intervals in 1 year, metabarcoding identified 68 taxa belonging to 32 local plant families. Metabarcoding could identify with finer taxonomic resolution almost all non-rare families found by conventional light microscopy concurrently applied. However, compared to microscopy quantitative results, Poaceae, Betulaceae, and Oleaceae were found to contribute to a lesser extent to the plant biodiversity and Pinaceae were more represented. Temporal changes detected by metabarcoding matched the features of each pollen season, as defined by aerobiological studies running in parallel, and spatial heterogeneity was revealed between sites. Our results showcase that pollen metabarcoding is a promising approach in detecting plant species composition which could provide support to continuous monitoring required in Natura 2000 habitats for biodiversity conservation. © 2021, The Author(s).",,,,1,11,,Sci.

Connectivity is particularly important for species that rely on more than one realm during their daily or life cycle (multi-realm species). However, conservation plans for the protection of multi-realm species usually involve a single realm, excluding other realms from the prioritization process. Here, we demonstrate an example of cross-realm conservation planning application for the island of Cyprus by taking into account the terrestrial and marine realms and their interface (i.e. coast). Operating within a data-poor context, we use functional connectivity metrics to identify priority areas for the conservation of six multi-realm species, by setting conservation targets simultaneously for the terrestrial and marine realms. MARXAN decision-support tool was used for the identification of the priority areas. Four scenarios were developed to evaluate the impacts of including connectivity in the prioritization process and the effectiveness of the existing coastal/marine protected areas in the achievement of the conservation targets set for the species. All scenarios considered land and sea anthropogenic uses as surrogate costs to influence the prioritization process. Our findings show an increase in the area of the reserve network and, therefore, the cost, when connectivity is included, whilst reducing the total boundary length. Furthermore, the current reserve network fails to achieve conservation targets, particularly for the marine part, which has a substantially smaller protection coverage than the terrestrial part. We conclude that focus should be given in the expansion of the current coastal/marine reserve network following a cross-realm conservation approach. This approach is not only relevant for the conservation of multi-realm species, but also for islandscapes, in particular, where the interdependence between the hinterland and the coast is larger and therefore the magnitude of the impacts generated in one realm and affects the other. © 2022 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,70,,J.

Two non-scientific approaches involved (1) snorkellers from the village using vernacular names for five local focal fish taxa and (2) non-resident volunteers using the Reef Check target list of fish for the Indo-Pacific (nine focal taxa). These approaches were cross-checked with a comprehensive scientific survey (all fish recorded at the species level across 12 families). The three methods were compared in terms of accuracy, precision, and ability to highlight changes in fish abundance between the community-managed no-take zone (NTZ) and the fished area. We found that scientific and volunteer-based data were consistent in terms of means and variance of abundance estimates but that Reef Check focal taxa would not be suitable for monitoring the Navakavu marine area. On the contrary, the locally selected target taxa were appropriate but overestimates and imprecision were noticed in the fish counts made by the community members. Differences in abundance of two major target taxa (Lethrinidae and Mullidae) between the NTZ and the harvest area were not validated by the scientific observations.

Some of the largest protected areas are located in biodiverse savanna systems where a mosaic of land-uses exist beyond their borders. The protected areas located in such systems are often host to threatened species and diverse animal communities. In spite of the ecosystem services birds provide, we do not know how functionally and evolutionary diverse the community is in north-eastern South Africa, or what the drivers of such diversity are inside and outside one of the world's largest savanna protected areas: Kruger National Park (KNP).ObjectivesFirstly, we aimed to investigate how bird species richness, functional richness, phylogenetic and beta diversity (including its components), and rarity differed across the KNP protected area and its adjacent mosaic. Secondly, we aimed to investigate the habitats and proximity to the KNP boundary that drove patterns across three biodiversity metrics. We also investigated whether differences in sample sizes of the citizen science data we employed, impacted results in a significant manner.MethodsTo investigate our aims, we used bird species records from the Southern African Bird Atlas Project 2 (a citizen science project that collects data at a 5 min latitude by 5 min longitude resolution), and for elucidating drivers of community composition, we used a finer scale remotely sensed product.ResultsHuman infrastructure, water sources and tree cover were overall the most significant and strongest drivers of bird diversity in the region; however, the patterns were complex. Specifically, we found that species richness was strongly and positively influenced by seasonal water and infrastructure mostly inside the protected area (KNP). Most significantly and somewhat concerning, though, were the strong negative effects that infrastructure had on bird functional and phylogenetic diversity inside KNP and, to a lesser extent, inside the mosaic. Seasonal water had a similarly strong but positive effect on species richness in the protected area, a random sub-sample of the former and the mosaic. Tree cover also had a negative and significant effect across the region on phylogenetic diversity and was the strongest driver of this diversity metric.ConclusionsOur results displayed the significant but negative influence that relatively little infrastructure had on bird functional- and phylogenetic diversity inside the KNP protected area despite its positive effect on species richness. Water sources across the protected area-mosaic landscapes also significantly affected regional savanna bird community richness. An increase in tree cover negatively affected phylogenetic diversity inside and outside the protected area as well as the mosaic: a similar finding to other studies in South African savanna systems. We showed the importance of habitat heterogeneity, specifically its components such as infrastructure, freshwater systems and tree cover, and how these impact independently and differently on bird communities across a large biogeographical savanna region.",,1991-2004,,8,38,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000995597300002,,,,,,,BETA-DIVERSITY; BIODIVERSITY; Bird diversity; Citizen science; COMMUNITY COMPOSITION; CONSERVATION; FRAMEWORK; Freshwater; FUNCTIONAL DIVERSITY; Infrastructure; LAND-USE; NESTEDNESS; Protected area; R PACKAGE; Savanna; Tree cover; VEGETATION STRUCTURE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We applied a flexible optimization tool - simulated annealing - to represent a fixed proportion of different marine habitat types within a geographic area. We investigated the relative influence of spatial information, planning-unit size, detail of habitat classification, and magnitude of the overall conservation goal on the resulting network scenarios. With this method, we were able to identify many adequate reserve systems that met the conservation goals, e.g., representing at least 20% of each conservation target (i.e., habitat type) while fulfilling the overall aim of minimizing the system area and perimeter. One of the most useful types of information provided by this siting algorithm comes from an ""irreplaceability analysis,"" which is a count of the number of times unique planning units were included in reserve system scenarios. This analysis indicated that many different combinations of sites produced networks that met the conservation goals. While individual 1-km2 areas were fairly interchangeable, the irreplaceability analysis highlighted larger areas within the planning region that were chosen consistently to meet the goals incorporated into the algorithm. Additionally, we found that reserve systems designed with a high degree of spatial clustering tended to have considerably less perimeter and larger overall areas in reserve - a configuration that may be preferable particularly for sociopolitical reasons. This exercise illustrates the value of using the simulated annealing algorithm to help site marine reserves: the approach makes efficient use of available resources, can be used interactively by conservation decision makers, and offers biologically suitable alternative networks from which an effective system of marine reserves can be crafted.",,S185-S198,,1 SUPPL.,13,,Ecol.

To evaluate success, we need more comprehensive and case-specific information on how conservation decisions are made. I report on a database that synthesizes information on 27 marine conservation planning cases from around the world. I collected data on each case's geographic scale, primary planning objective and outcome, legal and institutional context, degree of stakeholder involvement, and the ecological criteria and tools used to facilitate conservation decisions. The majority of cases were located in North and Central America, were regional in nature, and had biodiversity conservation as the primary planning objectives. Outcomes included priority-setting plans and implementation of marine reserves and other types of marine protected areas. Governments and local nongovernmental organizations led more participatory processes than national and international nongovernmental organizations. Eleven cases considered ecological criteria first, whereas 16 relied on integrated criteria (ecological plus socioeconomic data and other pragmatic considerations) to select priority areas for conservation and management action. Key tools for data integration and synthesis were expert workshops, maps, and reserve-selection algorithms (i.e., computer-based tools for priority setting and reserve design). To facilitate evaluation of success, future documentation of marine conservation planning cases should include a standard set of ecological, social, economic, and institutional elements. To develop standards for effective marine conservation, a more diverse set of documented cases is needed; for example, those that failed were located outside North and Central America, focused on the local geographic scale, or were motivated by objectives other than biodiversity conservation. ©2005 Society for Conservation Biology.",,1701-1713,,6,19,,Conserv.

Here, we applied systematic conservation planning to identify potential areas for conservation in continental Ecuador, with the aim of increasing the representation of terrestrial species diversity in the protected area network. We selected 809 terrestrial species (amphibians, birds, mammals, and plants), for which distributions were estimated via species distribution models (SDMs), using Maxent. For each species we established conservation goals based on conservation priorities, and estimated new potential protected areas using Marxan conservation planning software. For each selected area, we determined their conservation priority and feasibility of establishment, two important aspects in the decision-making processes. We found that according to our conservation goals, the current protected area network contains large conservation gaps. Potential areas for conservation almost double the surface area of currently protected areas. Most of the newly proposed areas are located in the Coast, a region with large conservation gaps and irreversible changes in land use. The most feasible areas for conservation were found in the Amazon and Andes regions, which encompass more undisturbed habitats, and already harbor most of the current reserves. Our study allows defining a viable strategy for preserving Ecuador's biodiversity, by combining SDMs, GIS-based decision-support software, and priority and feasibility assessments of the selected areas.

It is important to monitor tourism industries to minimize any potential impacts on target species. At Ningaloo, Western Australia, Electronic Monitoring Systems (EMS) have been installed on licensed tour vessels to collect information on encounters between snorkelers and whale sharks. This study combined data from the EMS with whale shark identification photographs, to assess the impact of in-water tourism on the encounter duration for individual sharks. During 2011 and 2012, 948 encounters with 229 individual sharks were recorded using EMS. Encounter durations between whale sharks and tourism vessels ranged between 1 and 59 min (mean = 11 min 42 s, SD = ±11 min 19 s). We found no evidence for a decline in encounter duration after repeated tourist encounters with individual sharks. Encounter duration varied among tourism operator vessels and were shorter when the sex of the whale shark could not be identified. Given that individual sharks were swum with on average 2.4 times per day (±SD 2.08), and up to 16 times over the course of the study, our results suggest that there is no evidence of long-term impacts of tourism on the whale sharks at Ningaloo. However, the inclusion of well-defined categories of whale shark behaviors and information regarding how interactions between tourists and whale sharks end will complement the data already collected by the EMS. This preliminary investigation demonstrates the potential for the EMS as a data resource to better understand and monitor the impacts of tourism interactions on whale sharks. © 2019 Cognizant, LLC.",,121-131,,3,14,,Tour.

MPAs encompass a range of protection levels, from fully protected no-take reserves to restriction of only particular activities, gear types, user groups, target species, or extraction periods. There is a growing body of scientific evidence supporting the ecological benefits of full reserve protection, but it is more difficult to generalize about the effects of other types of MPAs, in part because they include a range of actual protection levels. However, it is critical to determine whether partial protection and no-take reserves provide similar ecological benefits given potential economic costs of lost fishing grounds in no-take areas, common sociopolitical opposition to full protection, and promotion of partially protected areas as a compromise solution in ocean zoning disputes. Here we synthesize all empirical studies comparing biological measures (biomass, density, species richness, and size of organisms) in no-take marine reserves and adjacent partially protected and unprotected areas across a range of geographic locations worldwide. We demonstrate that while partially protected areas may confer some benefits over open access areas, no-take reserves generally show greater benefits and yield significantly higher densities of organisms within their boundaries relative to partially protected sites nearby. © Inter-Research 2008.",,49-56,,,367,,Mar.

In the vicinity of abrupt topographic features such as banks, seamounts and shelf-breaks, mid-water faunal biomass is often elevated, making these sites candidates for special protection. We investigated the spatial distribution of water column acoustic backscatter - a proxy for macrozoo - plankton and fish biomass - in the 9 km transition zone between the pelagos and coral atolls in the Chagos Archipelago (6° N, 72° E). The purpose was to determine the magnitude and distance over which bathymetry may enhance biomass in the mid-water, and thereby identify the scale over which static topographic features could influence the open ocean. Two distinct sound scattering layers were identified, from the surface to 180 m and from 300 to 600 m, during daytime. Both layers exhibited significant increases in backscatter near features. Close to features, the shallow layer backscatter was ca. 100 times higher and was driven partly by increasing numbers of larger individuals, evident as single target echoes. We determine the regional scale of influence of features on pelagic biomass enhancement to be ca. 1.8 km in the Chagos Archipelago, and suggest possible ecological explanations that may support it. Our approach determining the scale of influence of bathymetry should be applied during the process of marine reserve design, in order to improve protection of mid-water fauna associated with topographical features, such as seamounts and coral reefs. © Inter-Research 2016.",,271-276,,,546,,Mar.

However, inferring past ecological states is limited by the availability of robust data and biases in historical archives, posing a challenge for policy makers. To highlight how historical records can be used to understand the ecological requirements of threatened species and inform conservation, we investigated sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus) distribution in the Western Indian Ocean. We assessed differences in information content and habitat suitability predictions based on whale occurrence data from Yankee whaling logs (1792–1912) and from modern cetacean surveys (1995–2020). We built maximum entropy habitat suitability models containing static (bathymetry-derived) variables to compare models comprising historical-only and modern-only data. Using both historical and modern habitat suitability predictions we assessed marine protected area (MPA) placement by contrasting suitability in- and outside MPAs. The historical model predicted high habitat suitability in shelf and coastal regions near continents and islands, whereas the modern model predicted a less coastal distribution with high habitat suitability more restricted to areas of steep topography. The proportion of high habitat suitability inside versus outside MPAs was higher when applying the historical predictions than the modern predictions, suggesting that different marine spatial planning optimums can be reached from either data sources. Moreover, differences in relative habitat suitability predictions between eras were consistent with the historical depletion of sperm whales from coastal regions, which were easily accessed and targeted by whalers, resulting in a modern distribution limited more to steep continental margins and remote oceanic ridges. The use of historical data can provide important new insights and, through cautious interpretation, inform conservation planning and policy, for example, by identifying refugee species and regions of anticipated population recovery. © 2023 The Authors.

In order to make judicious trail and visitor management decisions, protected area managers need objective and timely information on trail resource conditions. This paper introduces a trail survey method that efficiently characterizes the location and lineal extent of common trail problems. The method was applied to a large sample of trails within Great Smoky Mountains National Park, a high-use protected area in the USA. The Trail Problem-Assessment Method (TPAM) employs a continuous search for multiple indicators of pre-defined tread problems, yielding census data documenting the location, occurrence and extent of each problem. The present application employed 23 different indicators in three categories to gather inventory, resource condition, and design and maintenance data of each surveyed trail. Seventy-two backcountry hiking trails (528 km), or 35% of the Park's total trail length, were surveyed. Soil erosion and wet soil were found to be the two most common impacts on a lineal extent basis. Trails with serious tread problems were well distributed throughout the Park, although trails with wet muddy treads tended to be concentrated in areas where horse use was high. The effectiveness of maintenance features installed to divert water from trail treads was also evaluated. Water bars were found to be more effective than drainage dips. The TPAM was able to provide Park managers with objective and quantitative information for use in trail planning, management and maintenance decisions, and is applicable to other protected areas elsewhere with different environmental and impact characteristics.",,270-279,,4,26,,Environ.

In 2006, recreational anglers landed about 4,809 mt of coastal pelagic species in the Gulf of Mexico, which was above the Maximum Sustainable Yield estimate (4,702 mt). Despite this urgency, marine policy and management is complex, controversial, and time consuming. One tool that resource managers use for managing, protecting, and conserving marine resources is designating Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). Presently, the public is concerned with the impacts of fishing on the status of fish stocks associated with the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary (FGBNMS). Recreational fishing is among the most popular marine activities associated with MPAs; however, few studies have evaluated the impact of this activity on the local resources. Given these conservation and social issues, the main goal of this study was to provide a characterization of the recreational fisheries associated with the FGBNMS. Findings showed that recreational landings were dominated by red snapper, vermilion snapper, and gray triggerfish. Cumulative landings and catch rates varied significantly by species, month and location. Overall, the highest fishing effort was in summer, and the highest catch rates were in winter. The greatest catch rates for reef fish and coastal pelagic species were in the southernmost (Laguna Madre) and northernmost (Galveston) origination ports, respectively. Based on monthly catches, there was some evidence that recreational anglers target spawning snapper aggregations. The annual mean weight for gray triggerfish was stable, but the mean weight of both red and vermilion snapper declined between 1986 and 2006.

Some of these include human population growth, coastal urbanization, accelerated human activities, and climate change. To enhance the formation of a science-based system of marine protected areas in the Mediterranean Sea, data on the spatial distribution of ecological features (abiotic variables, species, communities, habitats, and ecosystems) is required to inform conservation scientists and planners. However, the spatial data required is often lacking. In this review, we aimed to address the status of our knowledge for 3 major types of spatial information: bathymetry, classification of marine habitats, and species distributions. To exemplify the data gaps and approaches to bridge them, we examined case studies that systematically prioritize conservation in the Mediterranean Sea. We found that at present the data required for conservation planning is generally more readily available and of better quality for the European countries located in the Western Mediterranean Sea. Additionally, the Mediterranean Sea is lagging behind other marine regions where rigorous criteria for conservation planning has been applied in the past 20 yr. Therefore, we call upon scientists, governments, and international governmental and non-governmental organizations to harmonize current approaches in marine mapping and to develop a framework that is applicable throughout the Mediterranean region. Such coordination between stakeholders is urgently needed before more countries undertake further extensive habitat mapping, so that future conservation planning can use integrated spatial datasets. © Inter-Research 2014.",,261-281,,,508,,Mar.

One of its requirements is a quantitative definition of conservation targets. While the Convention on Biological Diversity aims to expand the world's protected area network to 17% of the land surface, in many cases such uniform policy-driven targets may not be appropriate for achieving persistence of various species. Targets are often set arbitrarily, often because information required for the persistence of each species is unavailable or unknown in the focal region. Conservation planners therefore need to establish complementary novel approaches to address the gaps in setting targets. Here, we develop and present a novel method that aims to help guide the selection of conservation targets, providing support for decision makers, planners, and managers. This is achieved by examining the overall flexibility of the conservation network resulting from conservation prioritization, and aiming for greater flexibility. To test this approach we applied the decision support tool Marxan to determine marine conservation priority areas in the eastern Mediterranean Sea as a case study. We assessed the flexibility of the conservation network by comparing 80 different scenarios in which conservation targets were gradually increased and assessed by a range of calculated metrics (e.g., the percentage of the total area selected, the overall connectivity). We discovered that when conservation targets were set too low (i.e., below 10% of the distribution range of each species), very few areas were identified as irreplaceable and the conservation network was not well defined. Interestingly, when conservation targets were set too high (over 50% of the species' range), too many conservation priority areas were selected as irreplaceable, an outcome which is realistically infeasible to implement. As a general guideline, we found that flexibility in a conservation network is adequate when ?10-20% of the study area is considered irreplaceable (selection frequency values over 90%). This approach offers a useful sensitivity analysis when applying target-based systematic conservation planning tools, ensuring that the resulting protected area conservation network offers more choices for managers and decision makers. © 2015 by the Ecological Society of America.",,1997-2010,,7,25,,Ecol.

Current approaches for site selection of protected areas often assume that both conservation features and management actions are fixed in space and time. However, this approach should be revised to allow for spatio-temporal shifts of biodiversity features, threats and management options. Our aim here was to demonstrate a novel approach for systematic conservation planning at a fine scale that incorporates dynamic ecological processes (e.g., succession), biodiversity targets and management costs. We used the new 'Marxan with Zones' decision support tool to spatially redistribute the major structural types of vegetation within a privately-owned nature park in Israel and facilitate the achievement of multiple conservation targets for minimum cost. The park is located in the Mediterranean climate region of the eastern Mediterranean Basin, one of Earth's richest biodiversity hotspots. This small park alone (4.5km2) holds 660 species of native plants and six structural types of vegetation. The region has been subject to manifold human pressures such as grazing, clearing and fire for millennia and is currently threatened by a range of modern human-related activities (e.g., invasive alien species). By spatially redistributing the six structural vegetation types under three scenarios, representing different conservation objectives (no change, equal distribution - evenness of structural types, preference to early succession stages) within three budget frameworks, we identified a set of near-optimal conservation strategies that can be enacted over time. The current spatial distribution of structural types and the cost of changing one structural type into another via management actions had a major impact on the spatial prioritization outcomes and management recommendations. Notably, an advanced successional stage (dense Mediterranean garrigue) tended to dominate a large portion of the landscape when the available budgets were low because it is a relatively inexpensive structural type to maintain. The approach presented here can be further applied to spatially prioritize conservation goals in the face of shifting environments and climates, allowing dynamic conservation planning at multiple spatial scales. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,371-383,,,158,,Biol.

However, this may not always be possible. Ecosystem-based management is frequently suggested as a way to achieve multiple objectives in resource management and requires that trade-offs among conflicting objectives be identified and an effective means to utilize these trade-offs developed. We examine the relationship between area and species richness in a diverse assemblage of fishes along the US West Coast and then use parameters from this relationship as input for a model that considers trade-offs between fisheries yield and the number of species protected by different management strategies. The species-area relationship (S = cAz) for fishes along the US Pacific coast is well described by the relationship S = 16·18A0·226. There are nearly linear trade-offs between diversity and yield when fishing effort is low. However, the trade-offs become nonlinear as fishing effort increases and imposing MPAs increases both the conservation and fisheries value of the system when the system is overfished. Synthesis and applications. Solving conflicts between fisheries and conservation requires attention as to how conservation benefits accrue as fishing effort is reduced. However, scientists often lack quantitative information about the trade-offs inherent in human activities such as fisheries.

How did it achieve a commitment to an integral program of protected areas, ecological and organic agriculture, public health levels behind only the Scandinavian countries, environmental education, occupational health, urban planning and economic development compatible with environmental protection, and compliance with the major world treaties on the environment? My primary concern is not a description of the state of the Cuban environment or a catalog of successes and failures but rather the trajectory of Cuban society's evolving relation with the rest of nature. My thesis is that each kind of society develops its own relations with the rest of nature, and that an ecological pathway of development is at least latent in socialist development, co-equal with equity and participation. Despite all the zigzags, vacillations and disputes, it emerges as an increasingly central characteristic. And this is imperative, for socialism cannot succeed without committing to an ecological pathway.

Using the conservation planning software Marxan and the Indo-west Pacific as a study region, an illustrative approach is developed here that incorporates climate change projections into the process of identifying priority areas for marine conservation. Conservation targets were set at 10% and 30% of areas that continually held sea-surface temperatures less than 1. °C above maximum non-extreme historic temperatures (derived from satellite imagery from 1984-2009). This approach allowed for continuity in conservation objectives across both space and time by identifying the geographic extent of thermal stress in the region and illustrating how conditions would change in future years. Achievement of targets was found to be flexible, but some areas were more important than others for achieving these targets. Interannual trend analyses were carried out for three climate models under two climate change scenarios to examine spatial and temporal patterns of thermal stress. Spatial patterns of thermal stress varied throughout the region. Results of the conservation approach were compared to the trend results to see whether the trends might be a simpler approach for accounting for climate change impacts in conservation planning (i.e., one feature could be used instead of more than 1000). The interannual analyses had a low overlap with the Marxan results, and hence are not a suitable substitute for the approach shown here. This study showed that inclusion of climate-related disturbances in marine conservation planning is feasible and should become common practice, together with targets for biodiversity. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,16-24,,,38,,Mar.

While focus is often given to the 30% coverage aspect of this target, other elements – on the location and effectiveness of protected and conserved areas – are equally important. As the implementation of Target 3 progresses, it is increasingly acknowledged that non-profit organisations, for-profit organisations, and individual landowners play a key role by choosing to manage their lands and waters to deliver conservation outcomes. However, privately protected and conserved areas lack recognition by many governments charged with reporting progress on the target. For countries and territories where these areas have been reported, we use the World Database on Protected Areas to explore their contribution towards elements of Target 3, particularly coverage, connectivity and ecological representation. In addition, we explore how privately governed ‘other effective area-based conservation measures’ contribute to Target 3 in countries and territories where they have been identified. Our results demonstrate that privately protected and conserved areas play a significant role in some countries’ efforts to meet Target 3. Since these areas are known to be under-reported, we stress the need for scaled up efforts for their recognition and documentation. This is vital not only for Target 3 tracking and implementation, but to ensure private actors receive appropriate recognition and support for their role in tackling the biodiversity and climate crises.

Protected areas have for centuries been a key strategy in conservation and play a major role in addressing current challenges. The most important tool used to track progress on protected-area commitments is the World Database on Protected Areas (WDPA). Periodic assessments of the world's protected-area estate show steady growth over the last 2 decades. However, the current method, which uses the latest version of the WDPA, does not show the true dynamic nature of protected areas over time and does not provide information on sites removed from the WDPA. In reality, this method can only show growth or remain stable. We used GIS tools in an approach to assess protected-area change over time based on 12 temporally distinct versions of the WDPA that quantify area added and removed from the WDPA annually from 2004 to 2016. Both the narrative of continual growth of protected area and the counter-narrative of protected area removal were overly simplistic. The former because growth was almost entirely in the marine realm and the latter because some areas removed were reprotected in later years. On average 2.5 million km                             2                              was added to the WDPA annually and 1.1 million km                             2                              was removed. Reasons for the inclusion and removal of protected areas in the WDPA database were in part due to data-quality issues but also to on-the-ground changes. To meet the 17% protected-area component of Aichi Biodiversity Target 11 by 2020, which stood at 14.7% in 2016, either the rate of protected-area removal must decrease or the rate of protected-area designation and addition to the WDPA must increase.                          © 2017 Society for Conservation Biology",,570-579,,3,33,,Conserv.

Nondestructive sampling methods are preferred, but potential insights into fishery management benefits may be limited. The toolbox of fisheries science contains established length-based methods that can potentially be used to extend assessment analyses. In northeastern Australia, state regulations allow commercial gill nets to be set within most regional estuaries, primarily targeting barramundi Lates calcarifer (Centropomidae; also known as barramundi perch). The state closed several riverine estuaries throughout this region to commercial fishing in the early 1980s. To monitor the effect of these closures on barramundi (and other) populations, our research teams deployed gill nets (mesh sizes 19-152 mm) bimonthly over 2 years within three pairs of systems (one closed and one neighboring estuary open to commercial net fishing per pair). On an hourly basis during each net set (1500-2100 hours), all fish were removed and measured. Of 1,657 barramundi netted, 96% were returned to the water alive. Catch averaged 2.8 times greater, and biomass 3.5 times greater, in closed systems compared to open (P < 0.02). Barramundi catch in closed systems exceeded that in open systems for each 30-mm length-class, including all classes below the legal limit of 580 mm. Barramundi are well-studied, protandrous hermaphrodites occurring in spatially discrete stocks in tropical mangrove estuaries. Applying published parameter values in a length-based analysis revealed that estimated egg-production was 21 times greater in the closed systems (P < 0.03). In fact, egg production in commercially fished estuaries was estimated to be near zero. The single most important factor in sustaining the commercial barramundi fishery in this region may be the function of interspersed estuarine reserves in providing sources of spillover and recruitment to neighboring open systems. Given current regulations, a network of protected estuaries may be especially beneficial, if not essential, for maintaining a sustainable fishery along this coast. © 2004 by the American Fisheries Society.",,225-236,,42,2004,,Am.

Our three main objectives were to: i) identify the species of microorganisms present in the frog community, ii) determine microorganism prevalence and how it changes throughout the year, and iii) detect diseases and injuries caused by pathogens (bacteria and fungi). Across 150 anurans analyzed, seven species of anurans especies (Anaxyrus compactilis, Incilius occidentalis, Dryophytes arenicolor, D. eximius, Hypopachus variolosus, Lithobates neovolcanicus y Spea multiplicata) hosted at least four genera of pathogenic fungi (Penicillium, Rhizopus, Asper-gillus y Batrachochytrium) and two genera of pathogenic bacteria (Aeromonas hydrophila and Pseudomonas sp.). We found the prevalence of positive cases was higher in autumn (0.51) than in summer (0.125). Lesions such as peeling of the skin on the belly and swelling of the extremities (red leg) were observed in four of the seven species. This study confirms the presence of bacterial and fungal pathogenic agents in this frog community, and serves as a precedent for future work on monitoring the state of amphibian population health in Guanajuato.

However, minimal studies revealed the spatiotemporal distribution and variation of nighttime lights (NTLs) at the regional and single protected area levels on a continuous time. We assessed the extent and intensity of NTLs within and around the PAs during 1992–2012 in mainland China. Lighted area index (LAI), lighted intensity index (LII), potential LAI (PLAI) and potential LII (PLII) were developed as indicators to represent the total quantity and the intensity in a PA and in a 5-km buffer zone around the PA on the basis of the Defense Meteorological Program Operational Line-Scan System NTL data. NTL in PAs covered 7192 km2 in 2012, accounting for 0.73% of the total area of PAs. The highest values of LAI and LII were observed in Northeast and South Central China among the six geographical divisions. The LAI and LII increased by 3.22 and 3.51 times from 1992 to 2012, which showed that the area and intensity of NTL in PAs experienced simultaneous growth. We identified a significant increase of NTL within 36% of PAs and outside 60% of PAs, indicating the persistent increase in the intensity of human disturbance in and around these PAs. The NTL growth rates in marine and coastal and wild plant PAs were the greatest and lowest among different types of PAs, with values of 76.47% and 15.79%, respectively. We suggested that development of targeted countermeasures for each PA should comprehensively consider the conservation objectives, the type of PA, and the lighting conditions inside and outside the PA.

Methods We use a species distribution modelling (SDM) approach (MaxEnt) to develop temporally explicit individual range maps of 57 migratory wader species across their annual cycle, including breeding, non-breeding and migratory phases, which in turn provide the first biodiversity hotspot map of migratory waders along the EAAF for each of these phases. We assess the protected area coverage during each migration period, and analyse the dominant environmental drivers of distributions for each period. Additionally, we compare model hotspots to those existing range maps of the same species obtained from the BirdLife Internationals' database. Results Our model results indicate an overall higher and a spatially different species richness pattern compared to that derived from a wader biodiversity hotspot map based on BirdLife range maps. Field observation records from the eBird database for our 57 study species confirm many of the hotspots revealed by model outputs (especially within the Yellow Sea coastal region), suggesting that current richness of the EAAF may have been underestimated and certain hotspots overlooked. Less than 10% of the terrestrial zones area (inland and coastal) which support waders are protected and, only 5% of areas with the highest 10% species richness is protected. Main conclusions The study results suggest the need for new areas for migratory wader research and conservation priorities including Yellow Sea region and Russian far-East. It also suggests a need to increase the coverage and percentage of current PA network to achieve Aichi Target 11 for Flyway countries, including giving stronger consideration to the temporal dynamics of wader migration.

While useful, such approaches are often restricted to well-characterized and conspicuous species. Environmental DNA (eDNA) can complement observation-dependent surveys, as sample collection is generally less labor-intensive. Furthermore, eDNA can be used to simultaneously detect multiple taxa in various habitats. Most eDNA applications rely on short PCR product-based meta-barcoding approaches. However, such approaches may be less robust when applied to genetically uncharacterized species. Hybridization capture techniques while less sensitive than metabarcoding, can identifying divergent sequences, especially those obtained from highly degraded DNA. To assess eDNA based methods for surveillance in a conservation context, we collected samples during the dry season from randomly selected waterholes from a protected area in eastern Cambodia. We applied both hybridization capture enrichment and metabarcoding targeting mammal mitogenomes to water (N = 46) and sediment (N = 10) samples. Seventeen species were detected, including 11 mammals, three amphibians, two reptiles, and one bird. Six species overlapped between the two applied methods. Seven species were hybridization capture-specific detections, and four were metabarcoding-specific. Metabarcoding was more sensitive to abundant or large body-size species while hybridization capture provided more mitogenomic information. While both methods have some advantages over observational approaches, combining them may improve the sensitivity, number of species detected and amount of genetic information obtained from eDNA. We demonstrate that eDNA from tropical forest waterholes can be used to determine the presence of wildlife that may be difficult to detect using other observational approaches. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,284,,Biol.

This study used spatial analysis methods to characterize and compare the aggregated distribution of two types of PRSs and further explored the reasons for their differences in spatial distribution. The results showed that the highest concentrations of National Water Parks (NWPs) were along the east coast and adjacent central areas, accounting for 69.48% of all 878 units, and 59.45% of the NWPs were concentrated in the plain area characterized by a high temperature, high humidity and high nighttime light. The spatial distribution of NWPs was positively correlated with altitude, drainage density, population density, GDP/km2, and dam density in each province, while not correlated with forest coverage. In contrast, National Wild and Scenic Rivers (NWSRs) were concentrated along west coasts areas, accounting for 56.88% of all 218 units, and 78.84% of NWSRs were concentrated in mountainous areas near coastlines, characterized by a high humidity and low nighttime light. The spatial distribution of NWSRs in each state was positively correlated with areas of high forest coverage, while negatively related to altitude. There was no correlation between the NWSRs distribution with population density, GDP/km2, dam density and drainage density.

This field is rapidly gaining prominence in sustainability science and has become one of the primary research paradigms. In our study, we conducted scientometrics analysis using the ISI Web of Science core collection database to examine research patterns and frontier areas in SL research. We selected 6441 papers and 265,759 references related to SL published from 1991 to 2020. To achieve this, we employed advanced quantitative analysis tools such as CiteSpace and VOSviewer to quantitatively analyze and visualize the evolution of literature in the SL research field. Our overarching objectives were to understand historical research characteristics, identify the knowledge base, and determine future research trends. The results revealed an exponential increase in SL research documentation since 1991, with the Consortium of International Agricultural Research Center (CGIAR) contributing the highest volume of research documents and citations. Key journals in this field included World Development, Global Environmental Change, Ecological Economics, and Ecology and Society. Notably, Singh RK and Shackleton CM emerged as prolific authors in SL research. Through our analysis, we identified six primary clusters of research areas: livelihoods, conservation, food security, management, climate change, and ecosystem services. Additionally, we found that tags such as rural household, agricultural intensification, cultural intensification, and livelihoods vulnerability remained relevant and represented active research hotspots. By analyzing keyword score relevance, we identified frontier areas in SL research, including mass tourism, solar home systems, artisanal and small-scale mining, forest quality, marine-protected areas, agricultural sustainability, sustainable rangeland management, and indigenous knowledge. These findings provide valuable insights to stakeholders regarding the historical, current, and future trends in SL research, offering strategic opportunities to enhance the sustainability of livelihoods for farmers and rural communities in alignment with the SDGs. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,103291-103312,,46,30,,Environ.

The data were collected from fishery resource surveys conducted in the Haizhou Bay and its adjacent waters from 2013 to 2017 using bottom trawl in au-tumn. ? diversity was measured by Sřrensen dissimilarity index using pairwise and multiple-site methods. Addition-ally, ? diversity was divided into turnover and nestedness components and the results were analyzed visually by violin plots. On this basis, the generalized dissimilarity modelling (GDM) was used to analyze the relationship between ? diversity and its components with environmental factors. The results of this study showed that the ? diversity of fish community and its components fluctuated remarkably among survey years, the fluctuation was larger in the shallow water, less for the deep water, and remained at a relatively stable level regarding the whole sea area. The proportion of the turnover component in ? diversity was basically maintained at more than 80%. The component of turnover was significantly larger than that of nestedness, implying the changes of fish community in the Haizhou Bay were dominated by turnover. The salinity and chlorophyll concentration of seawater were the main factors influencing ? diversity and its turnover component, and the accumulated deviance explained rate of salinity and chlorophyll were 28.05% and 23.33%, respectively, the influence of water temperature was weak. The environmental factors selected in this study had a low explanatory rate for the nestedness component, which was only 1.52%. Our results implied that the characteristics of fish community have been driven by the environment, and the community development can yield corresponding adaptive to environmental changes. The process of changes in ? diversity of fish community may be complex. For instance, salinity and chlorophyll concentration affect the prey density of fish and thus affect ? diversity, however, more influencing factors have not been evaluated. Further studies on ? diversity and its components are necessary to understand the mechanism of changing characteristics of fish community, and to provide scientific reference for the establishment of marine reserves as well as the optimization of marine conservation strategies. © 2022, Editorial Office of Haiyang Xuebao.

Yancheng Rare Birds National Nature Reserve, the largest coastal reserve of China, supports higher bird diversity, but the buffer zone (BZ) function and its avian fauna composition remained unclear. In December 2010, we investigated the bird diversity in BZ of Yancheng reserve covering 188.8 km transect line. As a result, 50 species belonging to 26 families and 13 orders were identified. The general bird diversity index H in BZ is 2.291 with evenness of 0.583, and three orders viz., Ciconiiformes, Passeriformes and Charadriiformes, showed high bird diversity (H > 1). Considering high bird diversity and preference of 32 protected species including endangered red-crowned (Grus japonensis) and grey cranes (Grus grus), the northern BZ should be now considered to be priority protected area and even upgraded to core area. Although relationship index (I) between aquaticulture area and cultivated fields was 0.688, the dominant species compositon in aquaticulture area (five species comprised 75.3%) and cultivated fields (two species comprised 73.6%) was significantly different. Therefore both the habitats were equally important for bird conservation, and should be given the same protection efforts. Under the influence of natural forces and anthropogenic activities, the habitats are continuously changing. Therefore, we suggest monitoring the bird diversity annually, so that we can take targeted and effective protection measures. Copyright 2016 Zoological Society of Pakistan.",,1193-1199,,4,48,,Pak. J.

It was established as a provincial-level nature reserve in 1998 and upgraded to a national level nature reserve in 2012. However, the changes in the quality of the ecological environment remain unclear. This study quantitatively assessed the changes in the ecological quality of the Shimentai Nature Reserve from 1997 to 2021 based on the Remote Sensing Ecological Index (RSEI), explored the changes in ecological quality before and after the establishment of the nature reserve and the upgrading of the control level, and discussed the reasons for the evolution using the Random Forest Algorithm and correlation analysis method. The results showed that the RSEI value of Shimentai Nature Reserve dynamically increased from 0.637 in 1997 to 0.714 in 2011, and the ecological environment quality steadily improved as the nature reserve was upgraded from the provincial to the national level; the RSEI reached 0.788 by 2021. The quality of the ecological environment has improved in 64.5% of the protected area, the buffer zone has improved more obviously, and the deteriorated areas are mainly concentrated in the experimental area where human activities are frequent and in the high-altitude ridge area in the core area. Meanwhile, the ecological environment quality of the buffer zone and the low-altitude area in the core area is adequate and relatively stable. The RSEI responded most clearly to elevation, with the best ecological quality between 300 and 600 m and relatively poorer quality above 900 m. On the slope upward with the south slope as the turning point, the quality of the ecological environment gradually improved from the north slope to the south slope in a clockwise direction, and then gradually deteriorated from the south slope to the north slope. At a cut-off point of 15° on the slope, the RSEI briefly increased and then decreased continuously. The RSEI was highest at a soil pH of 5.3, organic carbon mass fraction of 4.1%, and clay mass fraction of 32%. The degree of influence of residential activities on the quality of the ecological environment from the outside to the inside (i.e., the experimental area-buffer area-core area) was gradually reduced and negatively affected. The RSEI was positively correlated with precipitation, 23.6% of the area passed the significance test (P < 0.05). The local year was influenced by precipitation, and the influence of precipitation was greater in certain years. Overall, the ecological environment quality of the Shimentai Nature Reserve has shown a clear improvement trend, and the protection and management of the bare soil areas on the top of the high mountains, and the areas of frequent human activities in the lower altitudes, should be strengthened in the future. © 2024 Editorial Committee of Tropical Geography.

However, little attention has been given to quantitative assessment of human-nature interactions within and among protected areas. Here, we endeavored to model the connectivity between protected areas in rapidly urbanizing regions in China, drawing on insights from the framework of metacoupling based on connected corridors at short and long distances. In alignment with the overarching global conservation aim of increasing the overall coverage of protected areas, we found that adding new site to the protected area system yields superior connectivity gains compared to merely expanding the boundaries of the existing sites. Within the connectivity network between protected areas, we discerned specific sites acting as stepping stones, pivotal in enhancing connectivity among the chosen protected areas. Our study propounds a pragmatic methodology for prioritizing local protection initiatives and underscores the criticality of incorporating connectivity conservation strategies.

When such an expansion occurs, and the species colonizes a new region, it is important to monitor the habitat used by the species and utilize the information to updated management strategies. Water deer (Hydropotes inermis) is listed as Vulnerable species in IUCN Red List and is restricted to east central China and the Korean Peninsula. Since 2017, water deer has expanded its range towards northeast China and the Russian Far East. The objective of our study is to provide support for a better understanding of habitat use and provide suggestions for developing conservation strategy. We collected occurrence data in northeast China and the Russian Far East during 2017–2021. We used MaxEnt to predict habitat suitability for water deer and applied Circuitscape to determine possible dispersal routes for the species. We used seven environmental variables, viz., altitude, slope, aspect, distance to built-up area, distance to water source, distance to cropland and distance to roads for habitat suitability prediction. We chose the MaxEnt model (AICc = 2572.86) suitable for our data with the AUC value result of 0.935±0.014. There is good quality habitat for water deer in the boundary area of the Yalu and Tumen River estuaries between China, North Korea, and the Russian Far East, as well as the east and west regions of the Korean Peninsula. We identified three main suitable habitat patches, two of them located in east (NK2) and west (NK3) North Korea, and one in the newly colonized area downstream of the Tumen River along the border of China, Russia, and North Korea (TM1). Elevation, distance to cropland and water sources, and presence of wetlands were the variables that positively contributed to modelling the suitable habitats. Two possible dispersal routes were determined using the circuit theory, one was across the area from North Korea to the downstream Tumen transboundary region (Route B), and the other was across North Korea to the boundary region in China and along the tiger national park in northern China (Route A). A series of protected areas in North Korea, China, and Russia may support the dispersal of water deer. From the study on water deer dispersal, we can understand the existing ecological network in northeast Asia, which will benefit the whole landscape and biodiversity conservation. However, there are many threats present, and there is need for continued monitoring inside and outside the protected areas. Information sharing with stakeholders and carrying out local communities awareness activities are important. The establishment of a Northeast Asia landscape conservation network would help establish monitoring and conservation planning at a broad scale, and this study provides an example of the need for such a network.

One prevailing solution is to generate cost-minimizing marine conservation strategies using static spatial prioritization tools. However, there is a need to understand the social-ecological impacts of considering dynamics. We applied a grid-based dynamic model with biological and fleet sub-models, and examined the social-ecological effects of three cost-minimizing conservation strategies over a 20-year planning horizon (medium term), incorporating dynamics in fish populations and fisher behaviors, and associated uncertainties. This study shows a trade-off among cost minimization conservation strategies between conservation and socio-economic benefits. Estimated opportunity costs were different between static and dynamic methods, highlighting the necessity to include dynamic costs as an extra source in decision-making. We caution that relying solely on opportunity costs as the criterion to guide conservation practices can be misleading as it may fail to reflect overarching social-ecological objectives. The study contributes to a further understanding of prevailing strategies' potentials and limitations, and equips practitioners with a dynamic perspective to choose the best conservation strategy. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,244,,Biol.

Over the past few decades, the implementation of MPAs has achieved mixed results with regard to conservation goals, which has driven the scientific community to contemplate what factors may determine the effectiveness of an MPA. Most previous analyses have tended to focus on the design criteria of MPAs as well as post-closure management capabilities, but pre-closure conditions are seldom considered. Here, we investigate the effects of varying pre-closure fishing effort scenarios on MPA performance by applying a developed evaluation framework and age-structured dynamic model for the small yellow croaker (Larimichthys polyactis) in Haizhou Bay, China. We specifically focus on the overall fishing pressure imposed on the fish population and the spatial heterogeneity of fishing effort. We used ecological and social indicators to evaluate the effects of MPAs. Our results demonstrate that MPAs with lower pre-closure fishing pressure are more effective than those with higher pre-closure fishing pressure in recovering the fish population. Highly aggregated fishing efforts inside the MPAs prior to their implementations could also make MPAs less effective. By comparing our findings to other studies, we noticed that evaluation metrics and time frames could make a difference in determining the effects of a given MPA, which indicates the importance of monitoring programs. From a social perspective, placing MPAs in heavily exploited areas without additional harvest regulations may result in a tragedy of the commons situation that leads to a significant loss in catches. This study highlights the ecological and social risks of establishing MPAs under different pre-closure fishing scenarios and provides insights for the development of marine conservation plans. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,729,,Sci.

However, spatial management approaches are often implemented separately from non-spatial management interventions due to their distinct legislative processes, management priorities, and administrating agencies. As global ocean governance becomes increasingly spatial in compliance with the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, it is imperative to examine the utility of MPAs as a wider ecosystem approach to complement traditional, single species fisheries management. In this study, we examine current policy and management transformations happening in the Bohai Sea in China and demonstrate the discrepancies and synergies between MPA governance and fisheries management. By evaluating their interactions in objective setting, area selection, and management regulations, we reveal the gaps in coordination and consultancy between the government agencies implementing fisheries and spatial conservation measures. In particular, there is ambiguity or lack of consideration of fisheries management objectives in the framing of conservation area objectives and regulations, and vice versa. In addition, the mismatch between stated objectives of MPAs and their geographic coverage of species distribution ranges suggests insufficient incorporation of fishery expertise in conservation planning. To strengthen the cooperation between fisheries and conservation authorities, we identify opportunities and actions for synergizing management goals and ecosystem-based approaches, improving the design of spatial restrictions, and better integrating spatial management interventions as a critical fisheries and ecosystem-based management approach. These proposed changes will necessitate the creation of processes for engaging the full spectrum of expertise and actors, enhancing collaborations at multiple scales and between different sectors. These findings offer practical insights into bridging the gap between fisheries management and MPAs and could inform further decisions on integrated management in the Bohai Sea and elsewhere. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,258,,Ocean Coast.

Although China has decades of experience in developing MPAs, its current MPA designs are limited to small spatial scales and are infrequently supported by a systematic planning approach. As one of few studies to incorporate biological and socio-economic information in marine conservation prioritization in China, this study, targeting Haizhou Bay in China, provides a range of MPA network alternatives and evaluates the current design for four scenarios with different objectives. This corresponds to the major challenges for China's MPAs: conserve biodiversity; protect ecologically and economically important species; minimize socio-economic costs; and reduce enforcement costs. Furthermore, this study considers the compatibility of aquaculture practices, economically critical to China's coastal regions, in MPA designs and implementations. This study determines that current MPA designs are inadequate to meet conservation objectives. For instance, existing MPAs cover less than 10% of the ranges of target species for conservation. There are substantial conservation gaps offshore. By constructing and analysing planning scenarios, this study demonstrates the trade-offs in objectives as well as the importance of implementing SCP in China's MPA network design.

Results demonstrate that total eco-land in the study area showed a downward trend from 2005 to 2015, with a 7.55% loss and 1.33% replenishment. Non-eco land expansion inertia and human activities are the main driving forces of ecological land loss and replenishment, respectively. Effectively, the in-out balance optimization model based on Bayesian Network makes a net increase of 705.97 km2 in redlines. The overlapping area with core agricultural production space has decreased by 9.11%, human activity has been reduced by 6.06%, and ecological stability has been significantly enhanced.

The Intergovernmental Conference to create an international legally binding instrument (ILBI) under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) on the conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity of areas beyond national jurisdiction (BBNJ) was convened. They aimed to address the gap between conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity in areas beyond national jurisdiction. One of the core talking points of the ILBI, area-based management tools (ABMTs), including marine protected areas (MPAs), were widely recognized as a key mechanism for conserving and restoring biodiversity.

Despite their iconic status, the geographical distribution and condition of gorgonian species is poorly known. Using multiple online data sources, our primary aims were to compile, map and analyse observations of gorgonian forests in Italian coastal waters to assess the biological complexity of gorgonian forests, evaluate impacts and vulnerable species, and identify areas of special interest inside and outside of marine protected areas (MPAs) to help prioritize conservation strategies and actions. Location: Italy. Mediterranean Sea. Methods: Using a multi-source data integration approach, we collected and integrated data from scientific publications, the World Wide Web including social media platforms, citizen science projects and SCUBA diver questionnaires into a unified spatial framework. This method provided up-to-date information on the geographical distribution, abundance, and health of major habitat-forming gorgonian species in Italian coastal waters. Results: Higher abundance and complexity of gorgonian species occurred outside MPAs. Areas of Special Interest (n = 167) were identified (80 inside and 87 outside MPAs). Three locations supported all seven focal species: Capo Caccia MPA, Portofino MPA and Catania (unprotected). The purple gorgonian (Paramuricea clavata), the most abundant and geographically widespread species with highest forest complexity, was affected by multiple stressors including thermal stress, disease and fishing. Main conclusions: The multi-source approach was a rapid and cost-effective tool to gather, analyse and map disparate data on gorgonian forests spanning 27 years of underwater observations both inside and outside of MPAs. The unique perspective given by this approach demonstrates the suboptimal protection of several habitat-forming gorgonian species. The approach has great potential for wider application and offers a more inclusive participatory model for crowdsourcing and repurposing under-utilized observations while also increasing ocean literacy. © 2022 The Authors.

Ria de Aveiro, part of the Natura 2000 network, is characterised by high biodiversity and a wide range of ecosystem services. However, it is also a vulnerable territory that requires a management plan in practice for environmental protection, targeting threatened species and habitats, but also to enable socioeconomic welfare. Framed by EBM principles, the stepwise planning approach aimed at identifying the governance boundaries and institutions, the policy objectives, synergies, and gaps relevant to managing biodiversity, and to promote participatory actions with local stakeholders and policy-makers to understand their objectives. These three first steps enabled us to understand the social-ecological system and to co-develop relevant EBM solutions. In the final step, the proposed EBM solutions were evaluated for effectiveness, efficiency, equity and fairness, and then compared to the present condition.

Current and foreseen changes connected to human activities, namely land and water uses and potential conflicts, in frame of environmental policies, sustainable economic development and human well-being require the implementation of ecosystem-based management (EBM) planning processes considering the connectivity across marine, transitional, freshwater, and terrestrial domains. The main objective is to elaborate on the co-development of the EBM planning process across the three water domains, all characterized by high biodiversity and by the wide range of services provided by ecosystems and their abiotic components, for the mitigation of impacts from the management plan under implementation. The approach used follows a stepwise procedure in frame of resilience principles, considering the analysis of the relationship between the social and ecological components and on how these can be connected through risk assessment and a spatial multi-criteria analysis based on the delivery of ecosystem services. Stakeholders’ perception matched the ecosystem services provisioning risk assessment and supported the planning EBM response that consist in saltmarshes and seagrasses meadows restoration programs.

Indonesian peatlands are subject to much greater anthropogenic activity than Peru’s, including drainage, logging, agricultural conversion, and burning, resulting in high greenhouse gas and particulate emissions. To derive insights from the Indonesian experience, we explored patterns of impact in the two countries, and compared their predisposing factors. Impacts differ greatly among Indonesian regions and the Peruvian Amazon in the following order: Sumatra > Kalimantan > Papua > Peru. All impacts, except fire, are positively related to population density. Factors enhancing Indonesian peatlands’ susceptibility to disturbance include peat doming that facilitates drainage, coastal location, high local population, road access, government policies permitting peatland use, lack of enforcement of protections, and dry seasons that favor extensive burning. The main factors that could reduce peatland degradation in Peru compared with Indonesia are geographic isolation from coastal population centers, more compact peatland geomorphology, lower population and road density, more peatlands in protected areas, different land tenure policies, and different climatic drivers of fire; whereas factors that could enhance peatland degradation include oil and gas development, road expansion in peatland areas, and an absence of government policies explicitly protecting peatlands. We conclude that current peatland integrity in Peru arises from a confluence of factors that has slowed development, with no absolute barriers protecting Peruvian peatlands from a similar fate to Indonesia’s. If the goal is to maintain the integrity of Peruvian peatlands, government policies recognizing unique peatland functions and sensitivities will be necessary. © 2018, This is a U.S. government work and its text is not subject to copyright protection in the United States; however, its text may be subject to foreign copyright protection.",,591-623,,4,24,,Mitigation Adapt.

However, a newly established multiple-use marine park in Malaysia, Tun Mustapha Park (TMP), aims for inclusivity in managing the park. This research explores different participatory approaches (i.e. participatory mapping and Photovoice) to understand the ecosystem services and the dynamics surrounding the services in TMP. Community-based organisations and a mariculture farm in TMP were invited to participate in this work. The participants mapped the ecosystem services and provided in-depth qualitative data that supported the maps, besides highlighting ecological, sociocultural and economic issues surrounding the ecosystem services. Furthermore, the participants provided suggestions and recommendations that carry political effects. Therefore, the participatory approaches employed here had provided rich visual and spatial data to enhance the ecosystem-based management of TMP besides empowering the participants to voice out for their communities. The results generated from this work were also further utilised to fill in the gaps of knowledge in a separate ecosystem service assessment matrix. However, the output from participatory approaches should not be considered as the ultimate outcome but rather as supplement to the planning and management of TMP due to potential human errors and biases. Although the participatory approaches came with limitations and challenges that may have affected the findings here, these nonetheless had provided support to the capability of local communities to provide information crucial for management of protected areas as well as room for improvement for further work.

The present study sought to verify and compare the existence of Ostrom's principles in the Recife de Fora Marine Park (“RFMP”) and the Coroa Alta Marine Park (“CAMP”), the only no-take marine areas located in the Royal Charlotte Bank, Bahia, east coast of Brazil, in order to determine the institutional robustness of these MPA. The methodology consisted of interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. Sixty-one interviews were conducted with representatives of civil society, public sector, and the private sector, related to MPAs. The results showed that the RFMP has a more robust institution than the CAMP, considering the presence of eight Ostrom's principles in the RFMP and only one Ostrom's principle in the CAMP. In conclusion, the case observed in the RFMP demonstrates how small groups of users who interact according to common rules that are respected and accepted by the group, involving institutions at different scales, can help improve the governance of MPAs. On the other hand, the CAMP has failed to include society in the local context and to construct actions collectively aimed at the legitimacy of decisions for the MPA and, thus, it can be considered a “paper park”, being necessary to completely reform the actions related this MPA. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,207,,Ocean Coast.

Acacia dealbata, a widespread invasive alien plant in the Iberian Peninsula, holds well-known fire-adaptation traits (e.g., massive soil seed banks and heat-stimulated seed germination). In this study, we assess to what extent fire suppression and land-use strategies could affect the potential distribution of A. dealbata in a fire-prone transboundary protected mountain area of Portugal and Spain, using Habitat Suitability Models. Specifically, we predicted changes in habitat suitability for A. dealbata between years 2010 and 2050. We explored the potential impacts of two land-use strategies ('Business-as-usual' or 'High Nature Value farmlands') combined with three levels of fire suppression effectiveness using the biomod2 package in R. We also considered the potential effects of two climate change scenarios (RCP4.5 and RCP8.5). Our modeling approach demonstrated a strong capacity to predict habitat suitability using either climate or land-cover information alone (AUC climate = 0.947; AUC LC = 0.957). According to climate-based models, A. dealbata thrives under conditions characterized by higher precipitation seasonality, higher precipitation in the warmest month, and higher minimum temperature in the coldest month. Regarding land cover, A. dealbata thrives mainly in landscapes dominated by urban areas and evergreen forest plantations. Our models forecasted that habitat suitability by 2050 could either increase or decrease depending on the specific combinations of fire suppression, land-use, and climate scenarios. Thus, a combination of business-as-usual and fire-exclusion strategies would enhance habitat suitability for the species. Conversely, management promoting High Nature Value farmlands would decrease the available suitable habitat, particularly under low fire suppression efforts. These findings suggest that promoting sustainable farming activities could impede the spread of A. dealbata by reducing habitat availability, while strategies aiming at fire-exclusion could facilitate its expansion, likely by enabling establishment and large seed production. This study highlights the complex interplay between fire-prone invasive species, fire and land-use strategies, and climate change; and thus the need to consider the interactions between land-use and fire management to promote invasive species control and landscape resilience. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,359,,J.

Energetics and metabolism, buoyancy, and swimming can all influence the ultimate fate of marine larvae through biophysical interactions with the environment. These biophysical interactions can be difficult to observe in situ, and ecologists often resort to biophysical models to predict dispersal pathways and estimate connectivity. These models aim to assist in marine reserve design and conservation; however, larval propagules have often been modeled as passive particles, which ignores the influence of the often complex early life-history of larvae on their own dispersal. Here we provide a systematic survey of vertical larval swimming behaviors in six species of Caribbean coral larvae, throughout their early ontogeny. We deployed novel larval observation systems ex situ to obtain continuous video footage of larval vertical velocity and behavior, tracked larvae using computer vision, and calculated time-series of vertical velocity distributions. Results add depth and resolution to the dramatic contrast in swimming behaviors between brooded and broadcast spawned coral larvae. In the absence of settlement cues, brooders often settled quickly post-planulation and exhibited mainly downward swimming behaviors throughout the first two weeks of life. Though they exhibited within-cohort variation, in the absence of settlement cues broadcast spawners typically continued swimming upward even after attaining competency. Behaviors in brooded larvae suggest that there is strong pressure to settle upon planulation. However, observations of detachment and continued downward swimming suggest an active search for suitable habitat. Oppositely, broadcast larvae were observed to prolong dispersal in the absence of settlement cues. Velocity distributions obtained in this study can be used parameterize propagule behaviors in biophysical models to examine the effects of behaviors on connectivity and larval retention in high-resolution coastal hydrodynamic models. © 2024",,,,,578,,J.

The Sahel is a vast region holding a large number of wintering trans-Saharan migratory European birds, and current land-use changes there may represent a threat for these species. We used satellite tracking data from the migratory Montagu's harrier to evaluate habitat use of the species during the wintering season, and whether the current network of protected areas is effective to provide their habitat needs during that season. We also developed an ecological niche model for the species in Western-Central Sahel to check if the most suitable sites are included within current protected areas. Tracked harriers occupied a large region encompassing a total of eight countries. The most preferred habitats during winter were croplands and some natural vegetation habitats, especially grasslands. Protected areas only covered a small proportion of the overall wintering grounds of tracked harriers and the most suitable areas for the species in Western-Central Sahel. Increasing the extent of preferred natural habitats within protected areas should benefit the conservation of this and probably other insect-eating raptors. However, substantial increases in extent and number of protected areas in sub-Saharan Africa are very unlike to occur. Conservation actions in the region should therefore be mostly focused on improving land use planning and management outside protected areas, specially enhancing agricultural practices to make biodiversity conservation compatible with poverty alleviation.

Consequently, most conservation plans have focused on the stationary periods despite the importance of migratory periods for overall population dynamics and fitness. Strategies that identify stopover sites for migratory species during migration and examine the potential for those sites to protect resident species may offer an efficient approach to enhance the conservation of both groups. Using crowd-sourced data (i.e., eBird), we identified priority stopover sites (PSSs) that target protection of 30% of the seasonal average abundance of over 400 Nearctic-Neotropical migratory bird species in the Americas during spring and fall migratory periods. We then calculated the proportion of global abundance of 158 resident bird species including 27 imperiled species, that were captured on those sites, analysed the extent to which sites were protected, and forecast changes in land use. Around half or less of PSSs were shared between spring (52–54%) and fall (23–32%), indicating that planning efforts should be season-specific. Less than 10% of PSSs were protected, while 30–46% were in human modified landscapes. Even though our spatial algorithms targeted 30% of the abundance of migratory birds, comparable proportions of resident bird populations were also captured (36% of resident and 42% of imperiled bird populations in fall, 22% and 31% respectively in spring). Our findings demonstrate that protecting stopover sites for migrating species can provide co-benefits for resident and imperiled species. © 2020",,,,,252,,Biol.

As an important means to evaluate the degree of realization of protected area management objectives, management effectiveness evaluation of marine protected areas, especially coastal wetland protected areas, has recently received attention from ecologists at home and abroad. Relevant theoretical research and research on methods of construction and application practices have been conducted successfully. At present, most of the assessments of marine protected areas in China draw on mature foreign systems, failing to fully consider the special characteristics of the local oceanic environment, and related domestic research that still needs to be implemented. Based on the problems existing in the current evaluation system and the characteristics of construction and development in the Cuangxi coastal wetland nature reserve, the evaluation framework of ""management mechanism-management foundation-management behavior-management effectiveness"" was developed, and an indicator system was designed using consultation methods and an analytic hierarchy process (AHP), including 4 elements, 19 assessment indicators, and 6 additional indicators. The following four are characteristics of this assessment system; (1) Unlike administrative supervision and inspection, the various output benefits of the protected area management system were considered comprehensively and included control, ecological, social, and economic effectiveness. (2) The indicator design takes into account the habitat characteristics of the coastal wetland nature reserve and the willingness of managers and the public to protect it. (3) To minimize the influence of subjective factors, quantitative work, such as weight setting, grading assignment, and percent distribution, was applied to the indicator system. (4) Assessment of indicators, such as changes in ecological environment quality and landscape, in protected areas requires long-term effective statistical data. This evaluation system is applicable to the coastal wetland type protected areas system with effective monitoring. Finally, the national nature reserve of Cuangxi Beilun estuary was used as a research area for verification of the evaluation system. The evaluation results showed that (1) the case area evaluation index score was 78 points with an additional 3 points, for a comprehensive evaluation score of 81 points, and its management level was level II, indicating that the protection management achieved good results. (2) The score ratio of each factor was ranked as follows; C Management Behavior (100%) > A Management Mechanism (90%) > B Management Foundation (87%) > D Management Effectiveness (65%), and the proportion of the number of evaluation indicators at all levels was I (53%) > II (21.05%) > III (16%) > IV (11%). (3) The score ratio of the 3 types of management effectiveness was D2 Control effectiveness (97%) > D, Ecological effectiveness (60%) > D3 Social and economic effectiveness (35%), thus, indicating that the ecological effectiveness of the case area was generally good, although the social and economic effectiveness was poor. Based on this analysis, the main problems faced by case area management were discovered and included insufficient technical capabilities, weak talent team building, and diverse human intervention. We recommend that protected areas should strengthen capacity building and control, strengthen public awareness, promote community comanagement, pay attention to the protection of ecosystems other than mangroves, and promote regional sustainable development. © 2020 Science Press.

Functional rarity (FR) and phylogenetic rarity (PR) are important features for biodiversity conservation. This work aimed to discuss the necessity and reasonableness of conserving fish FR and PR in coastal seas. Location: China. Methods: By compiling historical fish investigation data, joint species distribution modelling (JSDM) was applied to model fish communities in coastal China Seas. Biogeographic patterns of FR and PR were explored, and the effectiveness of current MPA networks in terms of match/mismatch with the hotspots of rarity was assessed. Results: A total of 44 functionally rare species and 22 phylogenetically rare species were identified. Six of these species were both functionally and phylogenetically rare, and only one was listed as endangered on the Red List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Functional rarity hotspots covered 10.27% of the coastal areas, which geographically converged in the southern and eastern coast of Taiwan, the Yangtze River Estuary and the Yellow River Estuary. Phylogenetic rarity hotspots only covered 3.06% of the coastal areas, which were sporadically distributed in the coastal East China Sea, the Bohai Sea and the northern Yellow Sea. Current marine-protected areas (MPAs) only represented 16.16% of the FR hotspots and 20.48% of the PR hotspots, indicating substantial mismatched areas between the MPAs and the hotspots of FR and PR. Main Conclusions: Only considering threatened species in conservation practices will omit functionally and phylogenetically rare species because FR and PR are not necessarily correlated with species threat status on the IUCN Red List. Functional rarity hotspots do not necessarily overlap with PR hotspots, and current MPAs mismatch the majority of these areas. We therefore advocate that conservation prioritization and expansion of MPA networks should account for FR and PR both at the species and site levels. © 2023 The Authors.

Although supervised models have increasingly been used to better monitor complexity relationships between cetaceans and their habitats, the development of unsupervised learning techniques that have significant advantages in visualizing, grouping and reducing the dimensionality of data has been overlooked. Here, using the unsupervised artificial neural network of self-organizing map (SOM), we examined the intraspecific variation of habitat utilization among three geographically neighboring populations (waters southwest of Hainan Island abbreviated as WS Hainan, Sanniang Bay, and Zhanjiang waters) of the Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin (Sousa chinensis) in the northern South China Sea. The results showed that the population inhabiting in WS Hainan occupied a largest area with scattered patterns comparing to the other two in Sanniang Bay and Zhanjiang waters. The SOM analysis further showed that the examined populations in different waters have distinct habitat characteristics. S. chinensis in WS Hainan was sighted in deeper water with higher salinity, whereas the population in Sanniang Bay inhabited in estuary with lower pH and salinity. More complicated distributed patterns and environmental heterogeneity were observed in Zhanjiang waters, where the dolphins distributed contractively in a small area at the entrance of Zhanjiang Port and dispersed in another large area in Leizhou Bay. Correspondently, part of the sightings in Zhanjiang waters had similar habitat with those in WS Hainan, while others were reported in more inshore, deeper and muddied waters. Based on these findings, we hypothesized that S. chinensis can be divided into two ecotypes: estuarine and non-estuarine. Here, we confirmed that the SOM can well identify the habitat differentiation in S. chinensis, and therefore suggested it is a powerful modeling tool for cetacean monitoring program. Our findings contribute to a specific habitat conservation strategy that one integrated protected area would be better for S. chinensis in Sanniang Bay and Zhanjiang waters, while several small protected areas with connecting corridors were more suitable for population in WS Hainan. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,144,,Ecol.

This study aims to predict whether or not the distributions of two high-mountain tree species, Abies (Abies kawakamii) and Tsuga (Tsuga chinensis var. formosana), will significantly shift upward due to temperature change, and whether current protected areas will be suitable for conserving these species. Future temperature change was projected for 15 different future scenarios produced from five global climate models. Shifts in Abies and Tsuga distributions were then predicted through the use of species distribution models (SDMs) which included occurrence data of Abies and Tsuga, as well as seasonal temperature, and elevation. The 25 km × 25 km downscaled General Circulation Model (GCMs) data for 2020-2039 produced by the Taiwan Climate Change Projection and Information Platform was adopted in this study. Habitat suitability in the study area was calculated using maximum entropy model under different climatic scenarios. A bootstrap method was applied to assess the parameter uncertainty of the maximum entropy model. In comparison to the baseline projection, we found that there are significant differences in suitable habitat distributions for Abies and Tsuga under seven of the 15 scenarios. The results suggest that mountainous ecosystems will be substantially impacted by climate change. We also found that the uncertainty originating from GCMs and the parameters of the SDM contribute most to the overall level of variability in species distributions. Finally, based on the uncertainty analysis and the shift in habitat suitability, we applied systematic conservation planning approaches to identify suitable areas to add to Taiwan's protected area network. © 2014 by the authors; licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.",,2882-2904,,11,5,,Forests,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI AG,,,,Abies; Abies kawakamii; CHANGE ADAPTATION STRATEGIES; CHANGE IMPACTS; climate change; Climate change; Climate change projections; Climate models; Climates; Conservation; CONSERVATION; conservation planning; Distribution; DISTRIBUTION MODELS IMPLICATIONS; DISTRIBUTIONS; Ecosystems; Entropy; Environmental protection; Forestry; general circulation model; General circulation model; LAND-USE; Maximum entropy methods; Maximum entropy modeling; montane forest; mountain trees; Mountain trees; Mountains; Planning; Population distribution; protected area; SCALE; SELECTION; SHIFTS; Space division multiple access; spatial distribution; species distribution; Species distribution; Species distribution models; Species distributions; Species Identification; systematic conservation planning; Systematic conservation planning; Taiwan; taxonomy; Trees; Tsuga; Tsuga chinensis; uncertainty; Uncertainty; UNCERTAINTY; uncertainty analysis; Uncertainty analysis,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The oceans are the repository of global biodiversity. In 2022, The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework was adopted during the 15th meeting of the Conference of the Parties of the United Nations (UN) Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). A significant component of this historic framework is the ambitious “30×30” goal, which calls for effective conservation and management of at least 30% of the world’s lands, inland waters, coastal areas, and oceans by 2030. With less than 10% of the world’s oceans currently protected, the future holds numerous challenges in achieving the “30×30” goal collectively. In 2023, after 20 years of negotiations, the UN General Assembly reached a consensus on the adoption of The Agreement under the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) on the conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity of areas beyond national jurisdiction (BBNJ Treaty). These milestones signify a major transformation in global ocean governance where marine biodiversity conservation has become one of the core issues. As the global ocean governance is currently undergoing systematic changes, China should seize the opportunity and plan a path to achieve deep participation in the global marine biodiversity conservation. To address this issue, we review the current global ocean governance mechanism and the development of marine biodiversity conservation issue through a retrospective analysis of key events. On the basis of the legal constraints of UNCLOS and CBD, a series of international conventions and rules have been developed by different parties and organizations for the protection of specific marine areas, marine ecosystems, flagship species, and fishery resources. Over the past two decades, under the leadership of the UN and with the participation of a number of international agencies, nongovernmental organizations, governmental departments, and scientists from various countries, a series of important surveys and comprehensive assessments of global biodiversity (including marine biodiversity) have been performed to provide a scientific basis for the initiative and implementation of the UN global governance program. These global initiatives include the UN 2030 Agenda, the 2021–2030 UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development, and the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. As summarized in representative assessment reports, the health of marine ecosystems and biodiversity have been continuously decreasing. As much as 40% of the world’s oceans are strongly affected by four major drivers, namely, overfishing, habitat loss, climate change, and environmental pollution. Currently available marine-protected areas have low coverage of species ranges or ecoregions and are not sufficiently effective. Challenges to achieving global marine biodiversity conservation include uncertainties and tipping points in marine ecosystems under global change, conservation of biodiversity in non-jurisdictional areas and jurisdictional governance, and planning for highly connected marine ecological networks. In the future, with the implementation of the “30×30” target and the BBNJ Treaty, how to equitably achieve the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity in marine areas beyond the limits of national jurisdiction, as well as the equitable sharing of the benefits of biological resources (including genetic resources), will be a focal point of global oceans’ governance. In the face of the international situation and national needs, guided by the concept of ecological civilization, China should initially accelerate its own capacity-building and improve the autonomy, intelligence, and internationalization of marine science and technology innovation. Such advancements will support China’s in-depth participation and leadership in global ocean governance while delivering scientific and technological support, as well as China’s sustainable development solutions. © 2024 Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Recent clinical reports support the notion of a direct link between laboratory-confirmed influenza virus infections and adverse cardiac events. Objective: Define the molecular mechanisms underlying influenza virus-induced cardiac pathogenesis after resolution of pulmonary infection and the role of necroptosis in this process. Methods and Results: Hearts from wild-type and necroptosis-deficient (MLKL [mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein]-KO) mice were dissected 12 days after initial influenza A virus (IAV) infection when viral titers were undetectable in the lungs. Immunofluorescence microscopy and plaque assays showed presence of viable IAV particles in the myocardium without generation of interferon responses. Global proteome and phosphoproteome analyses using high-resolution accurate mass-based LC-MS/MS and label-free quantitation showed that the global proteome as well as the phosphoproteome profiles were significantly altered in IAV-infected mouse hearts in a strain-independent manner. Necroptosis-deficient mice had increased survival and reduced weight loss post-IAV infection, as well as increased antioxidant and mitochondrial function, indicating partial protection to IAV infection. These findings were confirmed in vitro by pretreatment of human and rat myocytes with antioxidants or necroptosis inhibitors, which blunted oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage after IAV infection. Conclusions: This study provides the first evidence that the cardiac proteome and phosphoproteome are significantly altered post-pulmonary influenza infection. Moreover, viral particles can persist in the heart after lung clearance, altering mitochondrial function and promoting cell death without active replication and interferon responses. Finally, our findings show inhibition of necroptosis or prevention of mitochondrial damage as possible therapeutic interventions to reduce cardiac damage during influenza infections.",,570-584,,5,128,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000639311000002,,,,,,,cell death; CELLS; heart; human influenza; INFECTION; INFLAMMATION; mitochondria; MOUSE MODELS; necroptosis; NECROPTOSIS; oxidative stress; PATHOGENESIS; PHOSPHORYLATION; PNEUMONIA; proteomics; SEASONAL INFLUENZA; VIRUS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Because of the public and liquid nature of the maritime environment, it is difficult to obtain data on its protection costs. Therefore, it is feasible to select a reasonable surrogate cost. This study explored how the spatial priority of marine protected areas changed under three different protection surrogate costs: habitat area, number of ships, and marine zone function; protection targets were set at 5 % and 10 %. This analysis was based on the distribution data of Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins (Sousa chinensis) in Xiamen Bay, a highly urbanised coastal city in southeast China. Using habitat area as a cost surrogate, the protection boundary length was the largest, but the projected protection area was the smallest, and function loss was also considerable. Using the number of ships as a cost surrogate, both the protection area and function loss were the largest. Using marine zone function as a cost surrogate, the optimal scenario was achieved in which the protection area was of moderate size and the boundary cost and function loss were the smallest. The higher the protection target percentage, the greater the correlation between the results of different protection cost scenarios; the marine zone functional cost scenario had the highest correlation with that of the habitat area cost scenario, while the correlation between the number of ships cost scenario and the habitat area cost scenario was the lowest. The predicted spatial distribution of protected areas differed under the same protection target and cost scenario, owing to seasonal variation in suitable habitats for S. chinensis. Our results suggested that the Jiulong River estuary should be protected and that the currently protected area of Tongan Bay needs to be expanded in the dry season. In the wet season, the southern part of the existing protected area, the marine habitats of the Jiulong River estuary, the northwestern part of Wuyu, and the southern part of Dadeng-Xiaodeng need to be expanded. This study demonstrated a utilitarian exploration of the Marxan model to aid in the protection of rare marine species in coastal areas, providing reference data for the conservation planning of S. chinensis and other marine species. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,46,,Glob.

The main goal of this study was to examine the usefulness of ecological restoration in the management of gorgonian populations damaged by diving activity in intensively visited marine protected areas (MPAs). We used field experiments as well as simulations from size-structured matrices to assess the utility of transplantation of living fragments from damaged colonies to increase the viability of threatened populations. Despite results showing that technique failure caused the loss of 40% of transplants, well-attached transplants achieved survival rates (80%) similar to those of natural colonies. Surprisingly, environmental conditions (light level and presence of algae) did not have a significant effect on the mortality of the transplants, but did affect methodological failure rates (37% of transplants were lost in the photophilous treatments in contrast to the 25% lost in sciaphilous treatment). The simulations showed a substantial increase in the annual population growth rate (?) only when transplantation was performed every two years and under the most demanding conditions (recovering 75% of the detached colonies and obtaining 3 fragments from each one). Predictions from the size-structured matrix model suggest severe limitations of this technique at larger spatial scales. However, our study confirms the feasibility of this restoration measure to contribute to the recovery of populations in MPAs affected by local disturbances. The experimental and modelling approaches developed here may provide useful guidelines for future studies on the restoration of marine populations. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

However, deeper waters are increasingly recognised as a potential source of refuge that may help sustain fishery resources. We used a combination of historical catch data over a 20-year time period and fishery-independent surveys to investigate the effects of SCUBA spearfishing on coral reef fish populations in the southern Mariana Islands. Two jurisdictions were studied; Guam, where SCUBA spearfishing is practiced, and the nearby Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), where SCUBA spearfishing has been banned since 2003. Fishery-independent data were collected using baited remote underwater stereo-video systems (stereo-BRUVs) stratified by depth, marine protected area status and jurisdiction. Herbivores (primary consumers) dominated spearfishing catches, with parrotfish (scarines) and surgeonfish/unicornfish (acanthurids) the main groups harvested. However, the large, endangered humphead wrasse (Cheilinus undulatus) was the main species by weight landed by SCUBA spearfishers. SCUBA spearfishing was associated with declining size of scarines over time and catches shifting from a dominance of large parrotfishes to a mixed assemblage with increasing proportions of acanthurids. Comparisons between Guam and the nearby CNMI revealed differences in the assemblage of fished species and also greater size of scarines and acanthurids in deep water where SCUBA fishing is banned. These results suggest that SCUBA spearfishing impacts reef fish populations and that the restriction of this fishing method will ensure refuge for fish populations in deeper waters. We recommend a ban on SCUBA spearfishing to preserve or aid the recovery of large, functionally important coral reef species and to improve the sustainability of coral reef fisheries. © 2014 Lindfield et al.",,,,3,9,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,animal; Animals; article; biomass; Biomass; BIOMASS; body size; Cheilinus undulatus; Commonwealth Northern Mariana Islands; COMMUNITIES; CONNECTIVITY; Conservation of Natural Resources; coral reef; Coral Reefs; Data Collection; diving; environmental protection; environmental sustainability; fish; Fisheries; fishery; Fishes; fishing; fishing ban; geographic distribution; Guam; harvest; herbivore; human; information processing; MANAGEMENT; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; MICRONESIA; nonhuman; PACIFIC; Pacific islands; parrot fish; PARROTFISHES; POPULATION; restriction site; Southern Mariana Islands; spearfishing; species refuge; statistics and numerical data; STEREO-VIDEO; surgeon fish; unicorn fish,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

While the theoretical justification for MRs is extensive (see National Research Council 2001), and mounting evidence demonstrates the effectiveness of MRs as a management tool (Halpern, 2003), empirical data on the utility of MRs for mobile taxa such as fishes is still needed (Lindholm and Auster, 2002). Information on the movement of individual fish relative to landscape features, in both tropical and temperate seas, is critical for the design of successful MRs. A number of studies have demonstrated that many fish species exhibit statistically significant but facultative associations at various life history stages with specific microtopographic structures (=microhabitats) in low topography environments (e.g., Auster et al. 2003; Auster et al. In Press). Less is known, however, about the movement patterns and site utilization of individual fish relative to these features of the landscape. Whether the goal of an MR is the protection of the diversity of fishes overall (Bohnsack and Ault, 1996; Agardy, 1999; Hastings and Botsford, 2003) or the management of particular exploited fish populations (Bohnsack, 1993; Dayton et al., 2000; Gell and Roberts, 2003), the siting and design of MRs will be improved by data on the movement of fishes of different species relative to landscape features and patterns. Results are presented for two on-going telemetry, studies in the western North Atlantic: Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary (SBNMS) in the Gulf of Maine and in the northern Florida Keys. At SBNMS, site utilization by Atlantic cod (Gadus morhud) in gravel habitat and piled boulder reefs was quantified throughout the summers of 2001 and 2002. At the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS), acoustic receivers were first deployed on the seafloor at five sites extending across Pickles, Conch and Davis reefs in November 2001. Site utilization and movement between sites was quantified for Yellow tail snapper (Ocyurus chrysurus) and black grouper (Mycteroperca bonaci) tagged with coded, acoustic pingers. In August and December 2002, the receiver array was expanded to include 27 sites and an additional 90 fish were tagged from a variety of fish species. In the Gulf of Maine Lindholm and Auster (2003) showed that more than 1/3 of the bentho-pelagic Atlantic cod tagged with acoustic pingers showed high site fidelity to pebble/cobble habitat. Though the movement behavior of individual fish varied considerably, 37% of the tagged cod were present within an area of 0.5 km2 for more than 80% of their time at large (4 months). Observed cod site fidelity increased significantly over piled boulder reef features, when; more than 50% of the cod showed strong site attachment to particular reefs over a similar period (Lindholm and Auster, in prep). In the upper Florida Keys, site fidelity of yellowtail snapper and black grouper was quantified within the Conch Reef Research Only Area (Lindholm et al., in review). Individual fish from both species showed strong site attachment to the landscape within the reserve. These results underscore the importance of working from actual data rather than speculation: each of the fish species tagged moved much less than expected. © 2003 MTS.",,1235-1237,,,3,,,,,,,,Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Oceans 2003: Celebrating the Past...

Although the siting of marine reserves often includes a surrogate measure of diversity, the precision of these measures is rarely tested. To create the marine park at Lord Howe Island, Australia, the New South Wales Marine Parks Authority used habitat as a surrogate for community diversity. The aims of this study were to test the precision of habitat in predicting reef fish assemblage structure, and to investigate changes in precision when varying resolutions of baseline habitat data were available. To achieve this, visual counts of reef fish species and habitat surveys were conducted at 31 sites around the island. Overall, the variations in fish assemblage among sites were moderately correlated with habitat variations, while fish assemblages were weakly spatially autocorrelated, strongly affecting sites within a proximity of 1 km. This spatial autocorrelation demonstrates that both habitat and geographical data combine for greater surrogate precision than habitat alone at this spatial scale. The ability of habitat classes to predict reef fish assemblage structure was dependent on the quality and quantity of baseline data. Differences in assemblage structure were found among habitat classes derived from detailed high-resolution data, but not among habitat classes defined from low-resolution data. This study highlights the need for accurate in situ ecological information to establish precise habitat surrogates and complementary assemblage information to more effectively site marine reserves. Otherwise, reserves may misrepresent fish diversity and be unsuccessful at long-term conservation of marine biodiversity. © Inter-Research 2008.",,265-273,,,353,,Mar. Ecol. Prog.

Surveys of tourists can provide useful information about the significance of environmental problems, trade-offs among policy objectives, willingness to pay (WTP) for protection programmes and preferences for different payment mechanisms. In Khanh Hoa Province, the provincial People's Committee, the Ministry of Fisheries and the World Conservation Union are working to implement Viet Nam's first marine protected area (MPA) in Nha Trang Bay. This paper reports the results of a survey of local and other Vietnamese and foreign tourists to islands that will be included in the MPA. The majority of respondents thought rubbish on the beaches, water pollution and vendors on beaches were problems and that the MPA was a good idea. Foreign tourists were significantly more likely to perceive environmental problems than were Vietnamese tourists, and persons who agreed there were environmental problems were significantly more likely to support the concept of an MPA, despite the potential for possible economic effects with distributive consequences. WTP for protection was modest and positively correlated with education and income. Although foreign tourists were on average willing to pay more, a larger proportion of Vietnamese tourists were willing to pay some amount to support the MPA. Analyses indicate that changes in income and education expected with economic development will increase both awareness of problems and WTP for protection. The results of this analysis are both encouraging and cautionary. The need for an MPA is clearly recognized by most tourists, and most tourists are willing to pay small fees to support the MPA. Given that education has significant impacts on both perceptions of problems and WTP, educational programmes may be an effective strategy for managing the competing objectives of protection and use.",,461-480,,4,45,,J.

Physical processes and habitat types were examined. Oil spill cleanup guidelines were written for each habitat type. Biologically sensitive areas, those sites most vulnerable to oil spill impacts, were identified. Strategies were developed to protect most sensitive areas, i.e., prevent spilled oil from reaching them. Protection is the preferred option because it prevents both the impact of the oil and subsequent cleanup activities. Protected areas can often serve as repopulation centers for surrounding sites that may have been impacted. If minimizing ecological impact is to be a prime focus of oil spill response, ecologists should be involved in both the planning before and the field efforts during such spill events. © 1980.",,185-188,,2,3,,Environ.

A number of conservation efforts have been carried out with the implementation of national action plan and have significant impacts on the sustainability of society and the environment. On coral reefs issues, CTI-CFF runs particular programs namely CTI-COREMAP and Marine Protected Areas (MPA). On fisheries issues, CTI-CFF has a particular program called Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management (EAFM). CTI-CFF in Indonesia plays an important role in implementing the strategic steps of the regional action plan which is later adopted into the national plan of actions.

A principal goal is to establish a network of protected areas representing the full variety of species or ecosystems. We suggest considering three key attributes of a catchment when planning for aquatic conservation: irreplaceability, condition and vulnerability. Based on observed and modelled distributions of 367 invertebrates in the Australian state of Victoria, conservation value was measured by calculating an irreplaceability coefficient for 1854 subcatchments. Irreplaceability indicates the likelihood of any subcatchment being needed to achieve conservation targets. We estimated it with a bootstrapped heuristic reserve design algorithm, which included upstream-downstream connectivity rules. The selection metric within the algorithm was total summed rarity, corrected for protected area. Condition was estimated using a stressor gradient approach in which two classes of geographical information system Layers were summarised using principal components analysis. The first class was disturbance measures such as nutrient and sediment budgets, salinisation and weed cover. The second class was land use layers, including classes of forestry, agricultural and urban use. The main gradient, explaining 56% of the variation, could be characterised as agricultural disturbance. Seventy-five per cent of the study area was classified as disturbed. Our definition of vulnerability was the likelihood of a catchment being exposed to a land use that degrades its condition. This was estimated by comparing land capability and current land use. If land was capable of supporting a land use that would have a more degrading effect on a river than its current tenure, it was classified vulnerable (66% of the study area). 79% of catchments contained more then 50% vulnerable land. When integrating the three measures, two major groups of catchments requiring urgent conservation measures were identified. Seven per cent of catchments were highly irreplaceable, highly vulnerable but in degraded condition. These catchments were flagged for restoration. While most highly irreplaceable catchments in good condition were already protected, 2.5% of catchments in this category are on vulnerable land. These are priority areas for assigning river reserves. © 2007 The Authors, Journal compilation 2007 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,918-938,,5,52,,Freshw.

The assessment of people's level of consciousness about the problem, as well as their responses to it, helps us understand their ability to adapt and recover from the stress suffered. Therefore, the adaptation degree and the concept of social resilience are considered essential aspects of coastal zone management. The present study focuses on the city of Maricá, which sits east of the Guanabara Bay, 60km (37 miles) from Rio de Janeiro City. The Maricá coastal zone is formed by double beach barriers and barrier-enclosed lagoons. The inner barrier was formed in the second to last Pleistocene marine transgression. The other barrier is associated with the Holocene transgression. The east-west coastline orientation exposes the beaches to high southern waves and strong winds associated with cold fronts. Maricá's urban growth began in the 1970s. Between 1990 and 2000, this city experienced one of the biggest urban growth in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Today, Maricá has 125,532 inhabitants, a 66% growth in comparison to 2000. Weekend getaways tourism is the major incentive for this expansion. These second homes are concentrated on beaches and around the lagoons. Nowadays, despite the demographic pressure, Maricá's coastline is becoming a strategic geographic area because of two events with economic impacts that are scheduled to take place in the near future. The first will be the construction of a port at Jaconé Beach, which included sea defenses structures. Second, a vacation resort is to be installed at the Environment Protected Area located at Barra de Maricá Beach. Three storm events occurred in 1995, 1996, and 2001. These events caused several impacts on Maricá beaches, damaging houses, avenues, and commercial kiosks located at the coast. The strongest storm in decades took place in 2001; the impacts on Maricá's shore were one of the most severe in the state of Rio de Janeiro. The results of Maricá coastline's vulnerability assessment found in previous studies showed that the degrees of wave exposure, beach fragility, and damages varied according to geomorphologic, oceanographic, and urban characteristics. These studies also evaluated the resulting financial losses and depressed housing prices. In this context, this paper aims to assess different forms of adaptation, as well as people's perceptions of storms impacts on Maricá coastline. Twenty-five people were interviewed in 2003 and others fourteen in 2015 at the beaches or proximities in Maricá. Twenty eight of which were local residents, owned vacation homes, twelve worked at commercial kiosks, and six were housekeepers. Fieldwork consisted of observation of damages as well as repair or protection strategies. The interviews showed that people consider the dangers of the sea as the major problem in Maricá's beaches. Other common urban coastal problems, such as sea pollution and conflicts over the use of resources were not mentioned at all. Moreover, results showed that adaptation actions were done privately. There were neither prevention measures nor public financial support. People worked to mend and protect their homes in distinct ways. Predominantly, they used coastal hard engineering solutions, like seawalls. These seawalls were built using a variety of materials, such as concrete, culverts, and riprap. Besides seawalls, some residents built an embankment, filling areas with sand. Residents also took responsibility for repairing the ocean drive avenue. They focused their efforts in front of the impacted area advancing over the beach berm. As noted, non-professionals carried out several adaptation strategies and actions without any planning at all. Hence, other solutions, such as moving the urban settlements back or the establishment of a protected area, were not even considered. With no guidance whatsoever, people felt insecure about the efficiency of the structures. The interviews also revealed that people's perceptions of the causes of storm impacts were strongly influenced by the climate change and sea level rising debates. This point of view can be perceived as a problem, because it indicates a disconnection from other causes that might be influencing the current process, such as local geographic characteristics. Moreover, the lack of advocacy is also tied to this perception since the locals tend to see these events as of exclusively natural causes. Therefore, they believe political measures will not solve the issue. Finally, the fieldwork campaigns contributed to identify the spatial positions of the adaptation actions that were made. In addition to this identification, spatial analysis of the physical vulnerability and damages suffered at storms resulted on the following findings. In heavily damaged areas, 50% built seawalls, 12% embankment, 17% only repaired the damages, and 2% carried out mixed actions. In moderately damaged areas, only 26% built seawalls and 27% embankment, while 47% only repaired the damages. Hence, when the damages suffered were heavy, the preferred option was for ""hard"" engineering solutions. The results indicate specific demands for appropriate coastal management. The local government needs to offer financial support and take responsibility for leading and guiding preventive as well as repairing actions. Moreover, educating locals to increase their knowledge about the problem is essential. Furthermore, in order to obtain a complete and integrated coastal vulnerability assessment, studies about adaptation strategies and people's perception should be incorporated to spatial analysis of the physical vulnerability. This is especially important on coastal cities such as Maricá that has become a strategic place for new economic activities, and where local beaches are going through an intense urban growth. © 2016 Lins-de-Barros et al.",,147-161,,2,16,,J.

Methods: Samples of water for analysis of biological communities (testate amoebae, ciliates and bacteria) and limnological variables were taken in the Mandacaru stream located in the Conservation Unit of Parque do Cinquentenário, in the city of Maringá, Paraná State, Brazil, in two hydrological periods (dry and rainy). We calculated the Water Quality Index (WQI) composed by nine parameters of water quality (dissolved oxygen, thermotolerant coliforms, pH, BOD, water temperature, total nitrogen, total phosphorous, turbidity, and total solids), Trophic State Index (TSI) for phosphorous and we used a Redundancy Analysis (RDA) to verify the influence of environmental variables in the protozoan community. Results: The WQI showed that water quality was considered good in some points and considered bad in other points. The TSI for phosphorus classified the stream as mesotrophic in the majority of sampled sites points (mean between 53.09 and 58.35). We identified 19 taxa of testate amoebae, belonging to six families, being Difflugiidae, Centropyxidae, and Arcellidae those with more species and 71 infrageneric taxa of ciliates, distributed in 12 orders being Peniculida the most representative order, followed by Euplotida. According to RDA analysis, samples of the dry period were characterized by higher values of bacteria density and concentrations of chlorophyll-a, total phosphorous, and total nitrogen. Ciliates and testate amoebae presented higher abundance values in some of the months characterized by higher precipitation and in conditions of higher system productivity. Conclusion: we may conclude that the Mandacaru stream, although strongly influenced by anthropic action, still presents an acceptable water quality. Lastly, we emphasize that protists abundance was strongly influenced by system productivity. This was evidenced by elevated protozoan densities where there was higher primary and bacterial productivity. Thus, these organisms must be considered in studies that aim at the identification of organisms that may indicate anthropic impacts and environmental quality. © 2020, Instituto Internacional de Ecologia.

We used visual surveys and acoustic telemetry to investigate density and movement of 2 Brazilian endemic and highly targeted reef fish species inside and outside a coral reef NTZ, and subsequently inferred the effectiveness of the NTZ for protecting these species. To do so, visual surveys were performed on protected and unprotected reefs between 2016 and 2017. Moreover, 20 gray parrotfish Sparisoma axillare and 9 Brazilian snapper Lutjanus alexandrei were tagged with acoustic transmitters and passively monitored from December 2016 to October 2017. For both species, fish densities were significantly higher within the NTZ. Also, both species presented a high residence index over the short term, indicating they were full-time residents of the monitored area until detections were permanently lost. The absence of detections may indicate relocation to deeper reefs, predation, or fishing mortality when fish left the NTZ. Home ranges were small (0.10 to 0.45 km2), and both species presented spatially segregated subgroups within the populations. On average, the percentage of the home ranges within the NTZ was 88% for S. axillare and 95% for L. alexandrei. The results showed that small NTZs that are important to part of the life cycle of a target species are an effective measure to conserve reef fish populations, and also highlight the importance of fisheries management outside NTZs. © Inter-Research 2022",,113-131,,,688,,Mar.

The damage caused by ship groundings can be significant and may result in a shift in reef structure and function. In this study we evaluate the status of two restoration projects established in 1995, 6 years after two freighters, the M/V Maitland and the M/V Elpis, ran aground on reefs of the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. Our approach includes field monitoring in support of simulation model development to assess the effectiveness of the restoration efforts. A population model was developed for the coral Porites astreoides to project the convergence rates of coral abundance and population size structure between the restored and surrounding reference habitats. Coral communities are developing rapidly on the restoration structures. Species richness and abundance of the dominant coral, P. astreoides, were nearly indistinguishable between the restoration structures and reference habitats after only 6 years. However, although abundance and size structure of P. astreoides populations are rapidly approaching those of the reference habitats (a convergence in size structure within 10 years was simulated), maximum coral size will take twice as long to converge for this species. The sensitivity of the model to maximum recruitment rates highlights the importance of recruitment on the recovery rates of restored habitats, suggesting that special attention should be afforded to provide coral recruits with appropriate recruitment substrate at the time of restoration. Finally, the rates of convergence and, hence, the level of success of a restoration effort were shown to be influenced not only by the recruitment and survivorship rates of corals on the restoration structures but by the characteristics of the reference population as well. Accordingly, reference populations ought to be considered a ""moving target"" against which restoration success has to be measured dynamically. The simple, cost-effective, monitoring-modeling approach presented here can provide the necessary tools to assess the current status of a restoration effort and to project the time required for coral populations to resemble those found on undamaged reference habitats.",,448-456,,4,11,,Restor.

In tandem with these policies, different initiatives, particularly on both sides of the Atlantic, have emerged to provide valuable data for environmental management such as the concept of essential climate variables. However, a key question arises: do the available data align with the monitoring requirements outlined in these policies? In this paper, we concentrate on Earth Observation (EO) optical data applications for environmental monitoring, with a specific emphasis on ocean colour. In a rapidly changing climate, it becomes imperative to consider data requirements for upcoming space missions. We place particular significance on the application of these data when monitoring lakes and marine protected areas (MPAs). These two use cases, albeit very different in nature, underscore the necessity for higher-spatial-resolution imagery to effectively study these vital habitats. Limnological ecosystems, sensitive to ice melting and temperature fluctuations, serve as crucial indicators of a climate in change. Simultaneously, MPAs, although generally small in size, play a crucial role in safeguarding marine biodiversity and supporting sustainable marine resource management. They are increasingly acknowledged as a critical component of global efforts to conserve and manage marine ecosystems, as exemplified by Target 3 of the Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF), which aims to effectively conserve 30% of terrestrial, inland water, coastal, and marine areas by 2030 through protected areas and other conservation measures. In this paper, we analysed different policies concerning EO data and their application to environmental-based monitoring. We also reviewed and analysed the existing relevant literature in order to find gaps that need to be bridged to effectively monitor these habitats in an ecosystem-based approach, making data more accessible, leading to the generation of water quality indicators derived from new high- and very high-resolution satellite monitoring focusing especially on Chlorophyll-a concentrations. Such data are pivotal for comprehending, at small and local scales, how these habitats are responding to climate change and various stressors. © 2024 by the authors.",,,,14,16,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,Aquatic ecosystems; Biodiversity; Climate change; Earth (planet); Earth observations; Ecosystem management; Environmental conditions; Environmental management; European union; governance; Governance; High resolution satellites; high-resolution satellites; Lakes; limnology; Marine protected area; marine protected areas; Observatories; Ocean color; ocean colour; remote sensing; Remote sensing; Remote-sensing; Small lake; small lakes; Water quality,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Ecolabelled operators should be able to gain a competitive edge by offering a more sustainable product. The aim of this paper is to analyse tourists' willingness to pay for a new ecolabel for sustainable boating in the case of whale-watching in Iceland using the Contingent Valuation Method. Results of a survey of 337 whale-watchers show that 60% were very likely to choose an ecolabelled tour, and that 65.9% were likely or very likely to be willing to pay similar to 20% more for an ecolabelled tour. Considering the intention-behaviour gap, the low importance of environmental issues for choosing the operator, and other biases, it is probable that the ecolabel would only influence preferences in a limited market niche.

In many cases these actions have induced intense degradation and loss of the ecosystems there. Sandy beaches and coastal dunes are amongst the most threatened features. In Mexico, coastal dunes in the state of Nayarit, on the Pacific, have been affected by small scale tourism, the construction of artificial inlets and an increase in agricultural activities, even though they are part of a Biosphere Reserve. While there is a growing need for restoration or rehabilitation programs to protect these coastal dunes, such actions are almost non-existent because of financial limitations, difficulties in deciding which locations most urgently need these strategies, and the uncertainty of the results. Our goal was to evaluate the coastline of the Marismas Nacionales Biosphere Reserve, in the state of Nayarit, Mexico, examining geomorphological, ecological, and socioeconomic variables. Ninety sites were assessed, using the Re-Dune index, 41 beaches were found to be in a good state of conservation, while 43 are degraded but with the potential for success when subjected to restoration measures. Six sites were seen as highly degraded, with rehabilitation being the most viable option.

This aim is particularly important during and after large-scale investment in liquefied natural gas (LNG) facilities. However, the methods inevitably have changed over the years, compounding the difficulties of coordinating sampling and analytical programmes. After a review by the MHW Environmental Surveillance Group (MHWESG), sediment hydrocarbon chemistry was investigated in detail in 2010. Natural Resources Wales (NRW) contributed their MHW data for 2007 and 2012, collected to assess the condition of the Special Area of Conservation (SAC) designated under the European Union Habitats Directive. Datasets during 2007–2012 have thus been more comparable. The results showed conclusively that a MHW-wide peak in concentrations of sediment polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), metals and other contaminants occurred in late 2007. This was corroborated by independent annual monitoring at one centrally located station with peaks in early 2008 and 2011. The spatial and temporal patterns of recovery from the 2007 peak, shown by MHW-wide surveys in 2010 and 2012, indicate several probable causes of contaminant trends, as follows: atmospheric deposition, catchment runoff, sediment resuspension from dredging, and construction of two LNG terminals and a power station. Adverse biological effects predictable in 2007 using international sediment quality guidelines were independently tested by data from monitoring schemes of more than a decade duration in MHW (starfish, limpets) and in the wider SAC (grey seals). Although not proving cause and effect, many of these potential biological receptors showed a simultaneous negative response to the elevated 2007 contamination following intense dredging activity in 2006. Wetland bird counts were typically at a peak in the winter of 2005–2006 previous to peak dredging. In the following winter 2006–2007, shelduck in the Pembroke River showed their lowest winter count, and spring 2007 was the largest ever drop in numbers of shelduck broods across MHW between successive breeding seasons. Wigeon counts in the Pembroke River were low in 2006-2007 and in late 2012 after further dredging nearby. These results are strongly supported by PAH data reported previously from invertebrate bioaccumulation studies in MHW 2007–2010, themselves closely reflecting sediment trends for PAHs in the Pembroke River and Angle Bay. © 2015, Springer International Publishing Switzerland.",,30-Jan,,1,188,,Environ.

All Hippocampus species, listed in CITES Appendix II in 2002, are under trade regulations internationally. All Hippocampus species (wild populations only) inhabiting in China’s waters were listed as Appendix II of the National Protected Wild Animals in 2021. Through literature review, we (i) updated the species list of seahorse in China’s waters, (ii) summarized their distribution regions, habitat and breeding features, and (iii) presented their threatened categories and threats. Our goal is to inform effective conservation measures for seahorse wild populations in China. Review findings: In this paper, we reviewed and summarized seahorse species diversity, distributions, habitat uses, reproductive features, threatened categories, and threat factors from various reference sources, including online databases (Fishbase, GBIF, WoRMS, IUCN), peer-reviewed papers, reports, theses, as well as informative Chinese ichthyographies. A total of 16 seahorse species were recorded in China’s waters, including 5 pygmy seahorses that are no more than 30 mm in body height. Among these, Japanese seahorses (H. mohnikei) were distributed most widely, across China’s all four seas. Crowned seahorses (H. coronatus) were only found in the Bohai Sea, while Barbour’s seahorses (H. barbouri), Beibu Bay seahorses (H. casscsio, a new species found in 2016), and Tiger tail seahorses (H. comes) were only found in the South China Sea. Six species were only found in the coastal waters of Taiwan Province. Southern China, including Taiwan, Hainan, Guangdong, Fujian, and Guangxi, has high seahorse species diversity. The habitat uses of seahorses in China’s waters are very diverse, including coral and rocky reefs, seagrass and seaweed beds, muddy and sandy bottoms, gravels, and mangrove meadows. Some species have special requirements for their habitats. According to IUCN, 8 seahorse species were listed as Vulnerable (VU), 2 species were listed as Least Concern (LC), 5 species were listed as Data Deficient (DD), and 1 species was Not Evaluated (NE). The main threats to seahorses are bycatch and habitat destruction. Suggestions: Seahorses are a special taxonomic group of vulnerable fish species, and we propose five recommendations for urgent conservations of seahorses in China. First, the significance of seahorses as flagship species in marine biodiversity conservation should be realized and we need to use them to raise marine-conservation awareness of the general public. Establishing marine protected areas and applying other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs) might also be taken into account. Second, it is known that non-selective fishing gears such as bottom trawling have high seahorse bycatch, and the dredge net operations can damage seaweed beds where seahorses inhabit. Therefore, any solution for reducing bycatch, increasing survival rates of seahorses after releasing, protecting habitats and innovating fishing gears are welcome. Third, identifying the key habitats of different seahorse species in China’s waters is very important for establishing protected areas and fisheries spatial management. Currently, such data are very limited. Some key areas we synthesized in this study require national-wide surveys to validate before planning for marine reserves and OECMs of seahorses in China. Fourth, seahorse trade regulation and enforcement should be strengthened. To this end, techniques to distinguishing wild populations from farmed seahorses should be established as soon as possible before the expansion of seahorse aquaculture. © 2024, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Desert ecosystems perform irreplaceable eco-service functions, providing protection against wind, stabilizing sand, acting as biogeographic barriers, and promoting the conservation of biodiversity. Moreover, vegetation plays a crucial role in the assessment of ecological changes. Accordingly, by analyzing changes in vegetation, ecological threats can be identified and their severity quantified, thus helping to assess conservation efficacy in nature reserves. China is one of several countries worldwide suffering from severe desertification over vast areas, that is both extensive and complex. Accordingly, it is critical to understand conservation efficacy in the desert ecosystems of China's nature reserves. The Gansu Anxi National Nature Reserve in Hyper-Arid Desert (GANNR) is the only reserve in China established to protect hyper-arid desert ecosystems and their biodiversity, it is located in Guazhou County in the western part of the Hexi Corridor, Gansu Province. GANNR covers approximately 8000 km2, and thus accounts for one third of the total area of Guazhou County. The reserve separates the Kumutage and Badain Jaran deserts, sheltering the Hexi Corridor oasis and preventing sandstorms. Accordingly, it plays a critical role in biodiversity conservation and regional eco-safety. GANNR is divided into two parts: the northern and southern reserves. As the Chinese government has implemented its western development strategy, some key national projects have extended across the northern part of GANNR, including infrastructure for west-east natural gas transmission, west-east power transmission, and the Lan-Xin railway. In this study, we selected the southern part of GANNR as our study area for several reasons: (1) the vegetation cover and species richness are higher here than in the north, (2) typical temperate desert vegetation such as Reaumuria soongorica, Salsola passerina, Sympegma regelii, and Ephedra przewalskii can be found and assessed in the south, and (3) some villages are located in the southern part of our study zone. We analyzed trends in vegetative growth from 2000 to 2010, using RS and GIS by combining vegetation type and functional zoning maps. The vegetation type map was created using a high-resolution remote sensing image, which was acquired from the ZY-1-02C satellite in August 2012. This image had a spatial resolution of 2.36 m, after processing in ENVI 5.0 using orthorectification and the Gram-Schmidt method. Regression analysis of NDVI and elapsed time revealed the vegetation growth trend for each vegetation type in different functional zones. The results show the following: (1) each vegetation type exhibited increased growth over time, with an increasing trend during the 11-year period. This was particularly true for the natural grassland, which included Alhagi sparsifolia, Phragmites australis, and Achnatherum splendens, (2) no degraded vegetation types were found in either the core zone or the buffer zone, indicating that the GANNR administration achieved their protection goal, and (3) degraded vegetation types were found in the Bulongji, Qiaozi, and Shuangta villages, covering an area of 1319 hm2, this corresponds to just 0.31% of the study area. Although we have clearly demonstrated the vegetation conservation efficacy in GANNR, we also make the following suggestions: (1) adjust the functional zoning, such that the area containing Ephedra przewalskii is incorporated into the buffer or core zones, and (2) strengthen supervision around the villages to maintain the grassland conservation results achieved previously by constructing a fence to return grazing land to grass. We hope that this study will be beneficial to the GANNR administration, and will act as a reference for future vegetation conservation efficacy assessments. © 2016, Ecological Society of China.

DNA barcoding has been shown to be an effective tool to overcome the taxonomic impediment to facilitate biodiversity conservation in temperate forests. However, this tool has rarely been considered for use in tropical forests. This study aims to investigate the utility and species resolution of DNA barcoding in a subtropical region. Location: The Dinghushan National Nature Reserve (DNNR) in China. Methods: A DNA barcoding database was constructed for 531 trees present in the DNNR. We used a phylogenetic method (neighbour-joining trees) and sequence similarity (all-to-all BLASTn searches) to evaluate the utility and species resolution of five DNA barcode regions (rbcL, matK, ITS, ITS2 and trnH-psbA), both singly and in combinations of two or three region. Results: The combination of rbcL + matK + ITS had the highest species resolution (94.19%). However, when considering the difficulty of sequence recoverability, rbcL + ITS2 performed best (64.64%). Species resolution for large genera containing more than two species was substantially lower than that for small genera with one and two species per genus. Local small spatial scales (1-ha quadrats) resulted in moderately improved species resolution (70.82% for rbcL + ITS2) compared to larger spatial scales (20 and 1133 ha). We document incongruent signals between nuclear and cpDNA regions and the challenges associated with barcoding large genera inherent to subtropical floras. Main conclusions: This study considerably expands the global DNA barcode database for subtropical trees. Based on cost-effectiveness and the trade-off between sequence recovery and species resolution, we suggest that the rbcL + ITS2 barcode combination is an effective tool for documenting plant diversity in the DNNR. This study also sheds some light on the limitations and challenges for the application of barcoding to conservation biogeography in subtropical forests. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,188-199,,2,21,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,assessment method; Biodiversity assessments; biogeography; China; conservation genetics; database; Dinghushan Biosphere Reserve; DNA; forest ecosystem; Guangdong; Large genera; rbcL + ITS2; rbcL + matK; resolution; Spatial scale; Species resolution; subtropical region,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In this study, a geographical attribute code and basic zoning elements are developed for the proposed ""Ailaoshan-Wuliangshan"" National Park, followed by the development of spatial multi-criteria sets and weight sets to determine the suitability of the land. Next, we use a clustering algorithm and conflict unit prioritization to allocate space for multi-target units to get the preliminary zoning schemes, and then identify stable units and unstable units through sensitivity analysis. Ultimately, the functional zoning of the National Park was determined. According to the results, the proposed ""Ailaoshan-Wuliangshan"" National Park can be divided into nine types of 164 landscape units; the highest land suitability values of each zone showed the traits of differentiation and aggregation in spatial distribution; there are 97 stable units and 67 unstable units; approximately 62.83% and 37.17% of the total park area can be divided into core conservation area (primary sensitive area and secondary sensitive area) and general control area (ecological activity area and ecological control area). By implementing a comprehensive assessment and decision-making process, the defined functional zones are precise and simple to recognize on the ground, and they adhere to the area proportions needed by national standards. Furthermore, the functional zoning is clustered, which avoids the fragmentation of the zoning results causing difficulties in management, and serves as a point of reference for the functional zoning approaches used in other proposed national parks in China.",,,,11,11,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000881232400001,,,,,,,CONSERVATION; functional zoning; landscape unit; MARINE PROTECTED AREA; multi-criteria decision analysis; national park; SPATIAL MULTICRITERIA,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In fisheries that fail to meet fishing mortality targets, closed areas are sometimes implemented to reduce fishing mortality. However, fisheries with stronger management, including rights-based approaches that can address overcapacity and overfishing problems, often employ spatial management as well. Here, we compare the objectives, design, and performance of spatial management in nine temperate demersal fisheries in North America, Oceania, Europe, and Africa that employ rights-based systems. Common objectives of spatial management included protecting habitat, juveniles, and spawners and reducing discards. Recovering age structure and creating scientific reference sites were less common objectives, despite being widely cited benefits of spatial management. Some fisheries adopted single closures to achieve single objectives, whereas others adopted diverse networks to achieve multiple objectives. Importantly, many spatial protections are implemented primarily through industry initiatives. Environmental change compromised the efficacy of spatial management in some cases, suggesting the need to design spatial management systems that are robust to changing ocean conditions. Fisheries with diverse and extensive spatial management systems have generally healthier fish stocks. Whether this implies that spatial management contributed substantially to fishery performance is unclear due to an absence of large-scale, long-term studies aimed at discerning different drivers of success. Although these targeted monitoring studies of closed areas are limited, such studies are necessary to help resolve the ongoing debate and to enable more purposeful design of spatial management for fisheries and conservation. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,821-838,,5,19,,Fish Fish.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,Africa; age structure; CATCH SHARES; CLOSED AREA; CONSERVATION; conservation management; demersal fishery; ECOSYSTEM FUNCTIONS; environmental change; environmental monitoring; Europe; fish; fishery management; fishing mortality; groundfish; habitat; HABITAT; implementation process; INDIVIDUAL TRANSFERABLE QUOTAS; juvenile; juveniles; management practice; marine environment; marine protected areas; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; North America; NORTH-SEA PLAICE; Oceania Ecozone; overfishing; performance assessment; protected area; RESERVES; rights-based management; SCOTIAN SHELF; spatial analysis; spatial management; stock assessment; temperate environment,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The results showed that Tourism Management was the most prolific journal. U.S.-based authors published more often than those from any other country, whereas among research institutions, the Chinese Academy of Sciences was the most prolific contributor. It also revealed that conservation was the key focus, protected area was the main study object, and sustainable tourism was the main aim. The top three countries for cases study were China, the United States, and South Africa, and the main methodologies were contingent valuation method and geographic information system. According to the dynamic analysis, research perspectives changed from ecotourism resources to management and subsequently expanded to multistakeholders involvement, with a rapid expansion of the case and implementation of quantitative research methods. With multidisciplinary involvement and multistakeholders participation, the study of tourist awareness and behavior on ecotourism would become the main aspects for deepening and concreting ecotourism research.

Dongsha Atoll National Park (DANP), located in the northern South China Sea (SCS), was established in 2007 to study and conserve this diverse and remote coral atoll. However, the role of Dongsha Atoll in connectivity throughout the SCS is seldom studied. In this study, we aim to evaluate the role of DANP in conserving regional marine biodiversity. Methods: In total, 206 samples across nine marine species were collected and sequenced from Dongsha Atoll, and these data were combined with available sequence data from each of these nine species archived in the Genomic Observatories Metadatabase (GEOME). Together, these data provide the most extensive population genetic analysis of a single marine protected area. We evaluate metapopulation structure for each species by using a coalescent sampler, selecting among panmixia, stepping-stone, and island models of connectivity in a likelihood-based framework. We then completed a heuristic graph theoretical analysis based on maximum dispersal distance to get a sense of Dongsha's centrality within the SCS. Results: Our dataset yielded 111 unique haplotypes across all taxa at DANP, 58% of which were not sampled elsewhere. Analysis of metapopulation structure showed that five out of nine species have strong regional connectivity across the SCS such that their gene pools are effectively panmictic (mean pelagic larval duration (PLD) = 78 days, sd = 60 days); while four species have stepping-stone metapopulation structure, indicating that larvae are exchanged primarily between nearby populations (mean PLD = 37 days, sd = 15 days). For all but one species, Dongsha was ranked within the top 15 out of 115 large reefs in the South China Sea for betweenness centrality. Thus, for most species, Dongsha Atoll provides an essential link for maintaining stepping-stone gene flow across the SCS. Conclusions: This multispecies study provides the most comprehensive examination of the role of Dongsha Atoll in marine connectivity in the South China Sea to date. Combining new and existing population genetic data for nine coral reef species in the region with a graph theoretical analysis, this study provides evidence that Dongsha Atoll is an important hub for sustaining connectivity for the majority of coral-reef species in the region.",,,,,9,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000701694600006,,,,,,,COALESCENT; CONSERVATION; DISPERSAL; Indo-Pacific; INDO-PACIFIC; Larval dispersal; MARINE; Marine connectivity; Marine metapopulations; Migration models; PELAGIC LARVAL DURATION; Phylogeography; PHYLOGEOGRAPHY; POMACENTRUS-COELESTIS; POPULATION-GENETICS; R PACKAGE; Stepping-stones,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

It is categorized as critically endangered in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Thus, immediate measures of conservation should be taken to protect it from extinction. Currently, the Taiwanese government plans to designate its habitat as a Major Wildlife Habitat (MWH), a type of marine protected area (MPA) for conservation of wildlife species. Although the designation allows continuing the current exploitation, however, it may cause conflicts among multiple stakeholders with competing interests. The study is to explore the attitude and opinions among the stakeholders in order to better manage the MPA. This study employs a semistructured interview and a questionnaire survey of local fishers. Results from interviews indicated that the subsistence of fishers remains a major problem. It was found that stakeholders have different perceptions of the fishers' attitude towards conservation and also thought that the fishery-related law enforcement could be difficult. Quantitative survey showed that fishers are generally positive towards the conservation of the Chinese white dolphin but are less willing to participate in the planning process. Most fishers considered temporary fishing closure as feasible for conservation. The results of this study provide recommendations for future efforts towards the goal of better conservation for this endangered species. © 2016 Liu et al.

Although effects of climate and geological history on species richness have been widely explored, their relative contribution among common and rare species is poorly understood. Here, using a valuable ornamental plant family Gesneriaceae, we evaluated how contemporary climate, habitat heterogeneity and long-term climate change affect the distribution of rare and common species. Additionally, we identified hotspots of Gesneriaceae diversity and evaluated its protection gap in China. Location: China. Methods: Distribution of Gesneriaceae was compiled at a spatial resolution of 50 × 50 km. Species were grouped as rare and common based on the number of grid cells they occupied, and their richness patterns and hotspots were estimated separately. Generalized linear models and Random Forest were used to compare effects of different factors on species richness. Results: Richness of Gesneriaceae peaked in south-western China. The Yunnan–Guizhou Plateau and Hengduan Mountains were identified as hotspots for overall and common species, while only the former was hotspot for rare species. Temperature seasonality, winter coldness and temperature change since the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) dominated species richness patterns, but their relative effects differed between species range size. Temperature seasonality had strongest effects on richness of common species, whereas temperature change since the LGM was strongest for rare species. Neither current nor past precipitation affects richness patterns significantly. Main conclusions: Gesneriaceae species richness is strongly influenced by temperature changes. Specifically, rare and common species are primarily dominated by long- and short-term temperature changes, respectively. These findings suggest that most Gesneriaceae species may face high risk under future climate changes, and hence, more conservation efforts are urgently needed, especially in Yunnan–Guizhou Plateau, which is hotspot of rare species. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,235-246,,3,23,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,biodiversity; biodiversity hotspots; biogeography; China; climate change; conservation planning; dicotyledon; diversity pattern; endemism; Gesneriaceae; Hengduan Mountains; heterogeneity; Last Glacial Maximum; protected area; range size; rare species; risk assessment; spatial resolution; species diversity; species richness; winter coldness; Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

As a flagship commercial fishery species, Largehead hairtail (Trichiurus japonicus) has been over-exploited since the early 2000s. Therefore, the spatio-temporal management of largehead hairtail nursery grounds could effective help its recovery. This study aims to predict juvenile largehead hairtail distribution patterns and identify priority conservation areas for nursery grounds. A two-stage hierarchical Bayesian spatio-temporal model was applied on independent scientific survey data (Catch per unit effort, CPUE) and geographic/physical variables (Depth, Distance to the coast, Sea bottom temperature, Dissolved oxygen concentration and Net primary production) to analyze the probability of occurrence and abundance distribution of juvenile largehead hairtail. We assessed the importance of each variable for explaining the occurrence and abundance. Using persistence index, we measured the robustness of hotspots and identified persistent hotspots for priority conservation areas. Selected models showed good predictive capacity on occurrence probability (AUC = 0.81) and abundance distribution (r = 0.89) of juvenile largehead hairtail. Dissolved oxygen, net primary production, and sea bottom temperature significantly affected the probability of occurrence, while distance to the coast also affected the abundance distribution. Three stable nursery grounds were identified in Zhejiang inshore waters, the largest one was located on the east margin of the East China Sea hairtail national aquatic germplasm resources conservation zones (TCZ), suggesting that the core area of nursery grounds occurs outside the protected areas. Therefore, recognition of these sites and their associated geographic/oceanic attributes provides clear targets for optimizing largehead hairtail conservation efforts in the East China Sea. We suggested that the eastern and southern areas of TCZ should be included in conservation planning for an effective management within a network of marine protected areas.

Global ocean governance, as the theoretical framework for this issue, consists of five major elements: the subject, the object, the regime, the goal and the result. In this paper, we deeply analyze the four major issues in the BBNJ negotiations, they are the environmental impact assessment (EIA) system, the marine protected area system, the marine genetic resources access and benefit sharing system, the capacity building and technology transfer system, respectively. More in detail, we present the analysis of the subjects, the goals and the regimes of these four major issues. We also carry out the research on the current situation of different factions formed by countries in the negotiation process out of their own interests to achieve the goals of the four major issues, and conclude that the transfer of sovereignty is one of the possible solutions. The existing EIA system and the marine protected area system are partly based on the domestic system's spillover. According tothe analysis, it can be concluded that the sovereign state occupies the most important status in the construction of the BBNJ system, and it is the most central subject in this issue.  © 2022 IEEE.",,,,,,,,,,,,,Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Oceans Conf Rec IEEE,,,,Areas/systems; Assessment system; BBNJ; Biodiversity; Biodiversity of area beyond national jurisdiction; Conservation; Environmental impact; Environmental impact assessments; Environmental protection; Environmental technology; Global ocean; global ocean governance; Global ocean governance; Marine biodiversity; Marine protected area; Ocean governance; sovereign state; Sovereign state; Sustainable use; Technology transfer,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Oceans Conference Record (IEEE),,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Estimating the ecosystem's carrying capacity and setting up visitor access limitations is a common approach in maximising resource use to avoid environmental degradation. Our research used a case study strategy and a political ecology approach to analyse the conflict surrounding a carrying capacity-based management plan implemented in a Mediterranean marine protected area under severe pressure from scuba diving. A mixed documental and discourse analysis method based on fieldwork, grey literature and 16 semi-structured interviews with representatives of seven groups of stakeholders was used. Results indicate that although the carrying capacity approach was instrumentally supported by all groups, conventional scientific ecological knowledge played only a specious role in decision-making. Factors related to path dependency, neoliberal governance frameworks, uneven distribution of power among stakeholders and regulatory weaknesses were found to be the most influential in facilitating increased visitor pressure in the reserve. We conclude that, in order to be effective and mitigate social conflict, natural resource management strategies based on the carrying capacity concept must be complemented with a precursory assessment of the biopolitical context to align the goals of planning with the possibilities of the socially constructed environment. © Kelly 2019.",,366-376,,4,17,,Conserv.

Conflicts between the (historical) artisanal fisheries (AF) and recreational fisheries (RF) in Anegada Bay resulted in the prohibition of the former. This study addresses key fisheries characteristics to detect the degree of spatio-temporal overlap between them considering the annual dynamic of the coastal fish assemblage and proposed management alternatives. Both fisheries exerted different fishing effort coinciding with the dynamic of the fish assemblages but partial temporal and spatial overlap where apparent especially during one month. However, both fisheries focused their catches on different target species thus greatly reducing the overlap in resource use. Moreover, the low proportion of juveniles caught, limited fishing effort using selective bottom gillnets and scarce total harvest (168 tonnes/years) for AF compared with those of RF harvest (631 tonnes/years) in Anegada Bay poorly justifies the actual prohibition. However, the vulnerability index of AF landings resulted in higher values than the RF. To resolve conflicts, a co-management including AF, RF and industrial (trawl) stakeholders and non-fishing community is suggested. Because of the economic importance of fishing for local people, an efficient inter and intra-sector communications process and new fisheries guidelines are urgent for the equitable use of fisheries resources without compromising the goals of a protected area.

By combining multiple data sources, we assembled a unique dataset on catches at multiple sites in these areas by recreational (RF) and small-scale fisheries (SSF), covering the period from 1997 to 2015. Furthermore, a framework with which to identify the vulnerable species among all the species caught is provided; it is based on the IUCN Red List, international conventions for the protection of flora and fauna, the Habitats Directive and the intrinsic vulnerability index of marine fish. Overall, about a quarter of exploited species targeted by SSF and RF in coastal waters were vulnerable, making up nearly 50% of the total SSF catch and nearly 20% of the total recreational catch. In offshore waters, 100% of the RF and SSF catch was made up of vulnerable species. Among the species caught as bycatch in both areas by SSF and RF, there was a total of 27 vulnerable vertebrate species, which included birds, cetaceans, elasmobranchs and sea turtles.

The results also indicate that, although RF and SSF are often considered to have a relatively low ecological impact, a range of different fishing methods are affecting vulnerable species in coastal or offshore waters in the western Mediterranean Sea, be they targeted or taken unintentionally as bycatch.

However, it is also increasingly clear that biodiversity loss and climate change are interconnected issues that must be tackled in unison. In this paper we highlight that offshore wind farms (OWF) in the Mediterranean Sea (MS) pose serious environmental risks to the seabed and the biodiversity of many areas due to the particular ecological and socioeconomic characteristics and vulnerability of this semi-enclosed sea. The MS hosts a high diversity of species and habitats, many of which are threatened. Furthermore, valuable species, habitats, and seascapes for citizens' health and well-being coexist with compounding effects of other economic activities (cruises, maritime transport, tourism activities, fisheries and aquaculture) in a busy space on a narrower continental shelf than in other European seas. We argue that simply importing the OWF models from the northern European seas, which are mostly based on large scale projects, to other seas like the Mediterranean is not straightforward. The risks of implementing these wind farms in the MS have not yet been well evaluated and, considering the Precautionary Principle incorporated into the Marine Strategy Framework Directive and the Maritime Spatial Planning Directive, they should not be ignored. We propose that OWF development in the MS should be excluded from high biodiversity areas containing sensitive and threatened species and habitats, particularly those situated inside or in the vicinity of Marine Protected Areas or areas with valuable seascapes. In the absence of a clearer and comprehensive EU planning of wind farms in the MS, the trade-off between the benefits (climate goals) and risks (environmental and socioeconomic impacts) of OWF could be unbalanced in favor of the risks. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,824,,Sci.

This paper aims to describe a study, which compares five families of multiclass classification algorithms to perform SRP. Design/methodology/approach: Tested algorithm families include: Naive Bayes (NB), nearest neighbors, decision trees, linear algorithms and extension from binary. A common structure for all the algorithm families was implemented and adapted to the specific case, according to the test to be done. The tests were done on one month of real data extracted from automatic identification system messages, collected around the island of Malta. Findings: Experiments show that K-nearest neighbors and decision trees algorithms outperform all the other algorithms. Experiments also demonstrate that linear algorithms and NB have a very poor performance. Research limitations/implications: This study is limited to the area surrounding Malta. Thus, findings cannot be generalized to every context. However, the methodology presented is general and can help other researchers in this area to choose appropriate methods for their problems. Practical implications: The results of this study can be exploited by applications for maritime surveillance to build decision support systems to monitor and predict ship routes in a given area. For example, to protect the marine environment, the use of SRP techniques could be used to protect areas at risk such as marine protected areas, from illegal fishing. Originality/value: The paper proposes a solid methodology to perform tests on SRP, based on a series of important machine learning algorithms for the prediction. © 2020, Emerald Publishing Limited.",,289-307,,3,12,,J.

The EMP is a proactive spatial management strategy that anticipates mining of polymetallic nodules and that includes the designation of Areas of Particular Environmental Interest (APEIs). The implementation of the EMP and the sound application of marine spatial planning require sufficient high-quality data to inform decision-makers and draw credible boundaries of protected areas. This paper outlines the development of the EMP in the context of the Authority[U+05F3]s responsibilities with respect to the protection of the marine environment.

In this article, we predicted the IUCN status of marine fishes based on two machine learning algorithms, trained with available species occurrences, biological traits, taxonomy, and human uses. We found that extinction risk for marine fish species is higher than initially estimated by the IUCN, increasing from 2.5% to 12.7%. Species predicted as Threatened were mainly characterized by a small geographic range, a relatively large body size, and a low growth rate. Hotspots of predicted Threatened species peaked mainly in the South China Sea, the Philippine Sea, the Celebes Sea, the west coast Australia and North America. We also explored the consequences of including these predicted species’ IUCN status in the prioritization of marine protected areas through conservation planning. We found a marked increase in prioritization ranks for subpolar and polar regions despite their low species richness. We suggest to integrate multifactorial ensemble learning to assess species extinction risk and offer a more complete view of endangered taxonomic groups to ultimately reach global conservation targets like the extending coverage of protected areas where species are the most vulnerable. © 2024 Loiseau et al.

Fynbos communities and renoster shrubland form the dominant vegetation types on the plain, but these have been severely fragmented by agriculture, alien plant invasions, and coastal resort development. Most of the vegetation communities are under-represented within existing protected areas, and most of the land is privately owned. We recommend that a contractual national park, involving both private and public land owners, be established on the plain, and we have developed a reserve-selection algorithm that provides a flexible tool for selecting representative areas for protection. The algorithm is a stepwise heuristic, with rules for including mandatory areas, forcing adjacency, and excluding undesirable areas. The selection units of the algorithm are 3 x 3 km cells, and the goal of the algorithm is to simultaneously select different target areas (percentages of total areas) of 11 vegetation types, as well as one population of each of the 99 endemic species, in the smallest area possible. Eight variations of the algorithm were run to provide flexibility in the results. Between 55 and 61 cells (out of a total of 193) were selected, 45 of which were common to all variations. Invoking the adjacency rule, or avoiding alien cells, costs less than 5% extra area. Six of the vegetation types are close to their targets, and the remaining 5 are over-represented by between 46-166%. Percentage over-representation is negatively and significantly correlated with percentage target. Between 72-78% of endemic species are represented more than once in the final sets of cells, and the gamma diversity of the Agulhas Plain is incidentally accommodated for. We suggest that the 45 cells common to all algorithm variations form the core of the contractual national park. Final reserve boundaries will differ from those of the selection units, so, as management boundaries are progressively defined, the algorithm can be rerun to account for the changes in the reserved areas of target features. We thus provide a dynamic and flexible tool for reevaluating priorities during the development of a park.",,1101-1116,,5,11,,Conserv.

The objectives of the MPA are to: 1) contribute to a national and global representative system of MPAs, 2) serve as a scientific reference point to inform future management, 3) contribute to the recovery of the Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides), and 4) reduce the bird bycatch of the toothfish fishery, particularly of albatrosses and petrels. This study employs systematic conservation planning methods to delineate a MPA within the EEZ that will conserve biodiversity patterns and processes within sensible management boundaries, while minimizing conflict with the legal toothfish fishery. After collating all available distributional data on species, benthic habitats and ecosystem processes, we used C-Plan software to delineate a MPA with three management zones: four IUCN Category Ia reserves (13% of EEZ); two Conservation Zones (21% of EEZ); and three Category IV reserves (remainder of EEZ). Compromises between conservation target achievement and the area required by the MPA are apparent in the final reserve design. The proposed MPA boundaries are expected to change over time as new data become available and as impacts of climate change become more evident. © Antarctic Science Ltd 2007.",,39-54,,1,19,,Antarct.

Here we share the lessons learned and commonalities that emerged from studies conducted in Belize, Canada, South Africa, Seychelles, the United Kingdom and the United States on a number of topics related to advancing MSP. We identify seven important themes that we believe are broadly relevant to any multi-objective MSP process: (1) indigenous and local knowledge should inform planning goals and objectives; (2) transparent and evidence-based approaches can reduce user conflict; (3) simple ecosystem service models and scenarios can facilitate multi-objective planning; (4) trade-off analyses can help balance diverse objectives; (5) ecosystem services may assist planning for high value-data poor Blue Economy sectors; (6) game theoretic decision rules can help to deliver fair, equitable and win-win spatial allocation solutions; and (7) strategic mapping products can facilitate decision making amongst stakeholders from different sectors.

To extract as much valuable information as possible from the data collected by this method we analyzed patterns of surveys and butterfly presence and absence within 250 m square cells gridded across the area within a Geographic Information System. While estimates of butterfly abundance were not possible, the data could be tested for trends in butterfly occupancy. For those cells surveyed during at least 10 years, no trends in the total number of occupied cells was evident for either Callippe silverspot or mission blue butterfly. There were cells, however, that showed positive or negative trends (P < 0.20) in occupancy for each species (Callippe silverspot: 14 positive, 15 negative, 6 cells occupied all years; mission blue butterfly: 40 positive, 40 negative, 2 cells occupied all years). We conclude that for the period 1982-2000 the population of each species was stable in overall total distribution, but indicate geographic areas of concern for each, specifically the edges of the northeast ridge for Callippe silverspot butterfly and the northwest of the study area for mission blue butterfly. Vegetation composition analysis using orthophotography with field corroboration indicates that those areas with declines in occupancy for these species experienced native coastal scrub succession and a corresponding loss in grassland butterfly habitat, while positive trending and stable cells had stable grassland proportions. Habitat managers at San Bruno Mountain should therefore incorporate programs for protecting grassland butterfly habitat not only from invasive weeds but also from succession to native coastal scrub. This approach illustrates the feasibility of using occupancy as an indicator to track butterfly status in a protected area even when suboptimal data collection methods are used, but the difficulties of using these data also reinforces the need for managers to devise monitoring schemes appropriate for their objectives before implementing them. © 2010 The Author(s).",,335-346,,4,14,,J.

Their comprehensive assessment is critical because meeting ambitious conservation objectives while maintaining sustainable human uses will be increasingly challenging with growing climate change impacts, recovery from past overharvesting, and potential revision of activities permitted with future revisions of the existing governance structure. We used the Ocean Health Index (OHI) to deliver an integrated assessment of the Antarctic marine ecosystems' evolving ecological and social dimensions. The OHI provides a framework to evaluate sustainable delivery of benefits people want from healthy oceans by measuring progress toward 10 widely-held societal goals. These goals include, conservation objectives, as well as other objectives, so as to identify tradeoffs across multiple priorities. We adapted the Index to the unique aspects and data availability of Antarctica. OHI scores were calculated for each sub-region defined by the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) as well as the region overall. OHI scores for conservation-related goals (biodiversity, clean water) were generally high, though with some stressor impacts (i.e., climate-driven decline of sea-ice, and pathogen pollution). However, a sensitivity test on the sea-ice habitat indicator showed biodiversity scores might be much lower in the vicinity of the Antarctic Peninsula. Preservation of lasting special places, captured in the sense of place sub-goal, scored relatively low due to limited extent of Marine Protected Areas in the Southern Ocean. In several cases, scores are low due to under-utilization of resources, rather than environmentally unsustainable practices (e.g., food provision, natural products, tourism, and recreation). However, increased human activities would intensify the risk of pollution, pathogen contamination, and disturbance to wildlife, particularly if compounded with future climate change impacts. Therefore, scores may reflect the need to select more conservative targets for human use, articulated in international treaties, taking future risks into account. Our results highlight the need for more research on both natural and social science aspects of the Antarctic system, as well as the need to evaluate targets under different scenarios, so as to provide robust science-based advice for future decision-making in the region. © 2017 Longo, Frazier, Doney, Rheuban, Humberstone and Halpern.",,,,FEB,4,,Front.

The majority of recommendations for climate-resilient MPAs focus on enhancing ecological resilience to disturbance and updating management strategies to respond as changes occur. Here, we assess how existing recommendations for climate resilience are applied in real-world MPA management, using criteria from five key management components: objectives, assessments, design, monitoring, and management. Our review evaluates 172 management plans for 555 MPAs across 52 countries and written in nine languages. We find that MPA management plans contain many underlying scientific and management principles for promoting resilience to climate change, even when “climate change” or related terms are not specifically included: plans include long-term objectives (93.6%), threat-reduction strategies (99.4%), monitoring programs (97.7%), and adaptive management (93%). However, there is substantial variation in the degree to which plans explicitly incorporate climate change into their strategies, from not mentioning it at all (21.5%) to developing detailed climate change-specific action plans (20.9%), with most somewhere in between. In addition to identifying common gaps across management plans, we also provide practical examples of activities MPA managers are undertaking to address climate change. © 2023 The Authors.

Knowledge of the influence of currents is also vital in understanding the relationship between oceanographic drivers and ecosystem configurations. However, despite their importance, ocean currents and their role in coral connectivity remain poorly constrained in the Seaflower Marine Reserve, an area that hosts the most productive open-ocean coral reef system in the Caribbean and that was declared a biosphere reserve in 2000. We herein characterize the larva transport patterns associated with surface currents that control connectivity in the reserve. To achieve this aim, we simulated the advection of buoyant coral larvae of Acropora palmata during nine spawning events. Larval dispersal patterns were obtained through offline coupling of a high-spatiotemporal resolution hydrodynamic field and a biophysical Lagrangian model for particle dispersion. Ocean current fields were generated using a Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) that was appropriately configured for the region. Larval dispersion was simulated using an Individual-Based Model (Ichthyop). Our results show that there are heterogeneous connectivity patterns during the spawning events at seasonal and inter-annual scales. This seems to be associated with high spatiotemporal dynamic variability in the region, such as the Caribbean Current bifurcation close to the Nicaraguan Rise, the intrusion-formation of mesoscale and sub-mesoscale eddies, and the semi-permanent presence of the Panama-Colombia Gyre. We also found that Serranilla, Providencia, Quitasueńo, and Serrana act as the most important sinks. In contrast, the northernmost reefs, Serranilla, B. Alicia, and B. Nuevo, seem to be the most important sources of larvae, highlighting that these areas need to be incorporated into the current MPA zonification and that this could lead to the improvement of MPA effectiveness. Our findings also suggest the need to implement MPA networks between Jamaica and Colombia to allow biological populations to become resilient to environmental changes and less prone to local extinctions. © Copyright © 2020 Lopera, Cardona and Zapata-Ramírez.",,,,,7,,Front.

In recent decades, primarily due to agricultural expansion and wildfires, this biome has been severely degraded, losing nearly 50% of its original vegetation. This study aims to evaluate the degradation dynamics of the Cerrado vegetation as a function of human activity and climate variability. Products related to vegetation index (MOD13Q1) and an imaging spectroradiometer with moderate resolution from 2001 to 2018 were used to calculate the vegetation degradation index (VDI), which considers the vegetation cover as a function of human actions (deforestation, forest fires, agriculture, and farming). Rain and air temperature data were obtained from the Conventional Weather Station of Januária-Minas Gerais. Fire foci data were calculated using the moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer - MODIS MCD14DL product sensor (TERRA/AQUA). Specifically, this study focused on the degradation of the vegetation in the Pandeiros River EPA (environmental protection area) that has increased due to the variability of climatic conditions, forest fires, and agricultural activities. The dry season provided greater sensitivity for the evaluation of the vegetation degradation process of the Pandeiros River EPA. The negative effects observed from the variation of climatic conditions and anthropogenic actions on the vegetation dynamics of the Pandeiros River EPA demand greater attention from administrative bodies on strategies for the conservation, preservation, and management of natural resources of conservation areas. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,482,,For.

Some conflicts have an economic base, which, once understood, can be used to resolve associated socioenvironmental problems. We addressed how the fish trade in an MPA that combines no-take zones and tourist or resident zones creates incentives for increased fisheries. We performed a value chain analysis following the fish supply and trade through interviews that assessed consumer demand and preference. The results showed a simple and closed value chain driven by tourism (70% of the consumption). Both tourists and local consumers preferred high trophic level species (predators), but the former preferred large pelagics (tuna and dolphinfish) and the latter preferred reef species (barracuda and snapper). Pelagic predators are caught with fresh sardines, which are sometimes located only in the no-take zone. Pelagic species are mainly served as fillet, and the leftover fish parts end up as waste, an issue that, if properly addressed, can help reduce fishing pressure. Whereas some of the target species may be sustainable (e.g., dolphinfish), others are more vulnerable (e.g., wahoo) and should not be intensively fished. We advise setting stricter limits to the number of tourists visiting MPAs, according to their own capacity and peculiarities, in order to avoid conflicts with conservations goals through incentives for increased resource use. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,123-134,,,200,,J.

Conversely, employing users' local knowledge and involving them in decision-making processes could decrease costs and conflicts, in addition to increasing the chances of management success. Here the potential to change conflicting MPAs into conservation areas that take into account fishers' use and knowledge is assessed based on a case study on the Brazilian coast (Paraty town). Fishers (n=206) from 11 villages were interviewed regarding their main fishing targets and gear, and then only the experienced ones (n=41) were interviewed from three main fishing villages about the most important commercial species. Fish landings were sampled for one year in these three villages (n=823), where participatory mapping and group interviews with fishers were also conducted to determine their opinions regarding management and how they thought it should be undertaken. Management measures should not be equivalent across the whole region, as there were clear differences in the target species and gear used. Fishers identified 55 important fishing spots, eight of which were important for more than five villages, while the experts identified 10 important fishing areas for the target species, which was supported by the sampling of fish landings. The fishers were not opposed to management and no-take reserves but would make some changes in the current design of these measures if it were up to them. Based on these data, a few changes were indicated in the design of these areas that would likely reduce the conflict between fishers and enforcement agencies. This kind of approach could be used as a framework for adapting conflictive MPAs or to support the establishment of new ones where fisheries are relevant. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,100-110,,1,40,,Mar.

This food-for-thought piece explores some of these overlooked ramifications of top-down MPAs, using the Tamoios MPA in Brazil and the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve in Romania as examples. It highlights how the exclusionary nature of top-down conservation can potentially undermine or delay conservation goals. Integrating local ecological knowledge (LEK) and customary management practices into formal management can be beneficial, regardless of potential limitations and/or disconnection with recommended conservation practices. LEK can serve as a bridge between communities and conservation goals, offering insights into sustainable practices and fostering dialogue. Inclusive approaches that combine LEK with scientific knowledge and involve local communities in decision-making can be beneficial for both new and existing MPAs, especially those that may not have been established in a socially fair way.

The application of the tool is illustrated with a case study conducted in a protected area in Portugal, wherein inter-organisational stakeholder groups collaborated in the conceptualization of feedback processes characterizing ecosystem services during a group modelling workshop.

Yet, in the Colombian Caribbean, parrotfishes are being increasingly targeted for human consumption as the demand for fish increases with tourist numbers. The Colombian Caribbean is dominated by Afro-descendant communities, and music is a deeply rooted form of expression and communication. ‘Champeta’, the local music folklore, is heard at all times of day and danced continuously in the islands off the coast of Cartagena. We conducted a survey of local tourist and fisheries stakeholders to characterise the parrotfish fishery, and designed a contextualised awareness-raising campaign of the ecological role of parrotfish and the need for management in the Islands of the Corales del Rosario and San Bernardo National Park. In doing so, we test if Champeta could be used as a mechanism for social-ecological change in Caribbean coastal communities in the context of coral reef conservation. Locals were engaged in every aspect of the campaign, especially with the song, as the campaign was a process rooted in their culture, interests and idiosyncrasies. Surveys of restaurants illustrated the size of the fishery and the extent of misinformation surrounding the consumption of parrotfish by tourists.

However, in recent decades they have been under siege by degradation processes reducing their coral cover and topographic complexity. The coral-algae competition is an important ecological process in the dynamics of coral reefs thus studying is pivotal for understanding the resilience in these systems. Objective: To determine the effect of herbivory on coral-algae competition under different scenarios (using a combination of descriptive and experimental approaches) and two climatic seasons in Capurganá Bay, Colombian Caribbean, in a marine conservation area (Hope Spot). Methods: Between July 2018 and April 2019, the role of herbivory was evalu-ated, performing an exclusion-no exclusion experiment in 48 coral individuals under different scenarios of interaction between Siderastrea siderea and its surrounding algae (treatments), half of the juvenile corals were covered with 2 400 cm2 metal boxes fixed to the benthos. The treatments consisted of: T1= No manipulation (control), T2= Algae removal, T3= Coral damage, T4= Juveniles in contact with artificial algae, T5= T2 + T3, T6= T2 + T4, T7= T3 + T4 and T8= T2 + T3 + T4. Results: After nine months was found differences between scenarios with and without exclusion (P= 0.006) and the climatic season (P= 0.032), it was found that coral growth was higher when algae were removed in the presence of herbivores (Fisher’s LSD, mean ± SE 9.871 ± 8.298) and the appearance of algae was greater inside the cages than outside them, while the competitive treat-ment did not show growth interference (P= 0.155). Algae colonized juveniles when their tissue was damaged and herbivory was excluded (mean ± SE 9.359 ± 3.901). There were differences in coral growth between seasons, being higher in the dry season (Average 0.0029 ± SD 0.0243 cm2/day) than in the wet season (Average 0.0022 ± SD 0.0161 cm2 /day). Conclusions: The coral growth depended on the presence of herbivores that regulate the growth, reproduction, and survival of algae; currently, this process is being interrupted as a result of overfish-ing in the reef ecosystems. However, some algae could be beneficial for juvenile corals when their abundance is large enough to protect them from fish predation and small enough not to significantly reduce their growth.

However, the extent to which complementary criteria coincide is usually unknown. We use the case of Guaiacum sanctum (Zygopyllaceae), an endangered timber tree species, to explore whether the protection of forests where this species is most abundant would meet other complementary conservation goals, such as capturing regional plant biodiversity, protecting other threatened/endemic species or safeguarding ecosystem services. Location Yucatan Peninsula, southern Mexico. Methods We conducted an analysis of the structure, composition and diversity of tree communities (including stems ?5cmdbh) at eight G. sanctum forest sites. We identified endemic and threatened tree species and quantified above-ground tree biomass and carbon storage in these G. sanctum forests. Results Guaiacum sanctum forests contain 35-59 tree species on plots as small as 1000m 2. The species composition of tree communities changed rapidly (high ?-diversity) across soil boundaries and rainfall regimes. Twenty-one endemic and eight threatened tree species were recorded in our inventories. Individuals of G. sanctum represented up to 55% of the above-ground carbon for trees ?5cmdbh. The high basal area of G. sanctum forests plus the high wood density, abundance, large size and longevity (more than 500years) of G. sanctum and other tree species enhance the potential importance of these forests for carbon storage. Main conclusions A conservation strategy focused on protecting important populations of G. sanctum in the Yucatan Peninsula would have significant co-benefits for conservation of regional tree species biodiversity and provision of critical ecosystem services. Our study illustrates a multiple criteria approach useful for the selection of areas with high conservation value on the basis of endemic, threatened species, species richness and ecosystem services. © 2011 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,575-587,,6,18,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,aboveground biomass; carbon sequestration; Carbon storage; community structure; conservation management; conservation planning; dicotyledon; dry forest; Ecosystem services; endangered species; endemic species; Guaiacum sanctum; Mexico [North America]; multicriteria analysis; Plant species diversity; protected area; Protected areas; Seasonally tropical dry forest; species conservation; species diversity; species richness; Threatened and endemic species; tropical forest; Yucatan Peninsula,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The double impacts of climate change and biodiversity loss are major threats to achieving the Millennium Development Goals, especially those relating to environmental sustainability, poverty alleviation and food and water security. The growing awareness of the planet's vulnerability to human driven changes also provides an opportunity to re-emphasize the multiple values of natural ecosystems and the services that they provide. Protected areas, when integrated into landuse plans as part of larger and connected conservation networks, offer practical, tangible solutions to the problems of both species loss and adaptation to climate change. Natural habitats make a significant contribution to mitigation by storing and sequestering carbon in vegetation and soils, and to adaptation by maintaining essential ecosystem services which help societies to respond to, and cope with climate change and other environmental challenges. Many protected areas could be justified on socioeconomic grounds alone yet their multiple goods and services are largely unrecognized in national accounting. This paper argues that there is a convincing case for greater investment in expanded and better-connected protected area systems, under a range of governance and management regimes that are specifically designed to counter the threats of climate change, increased demand and altered patterns of resource use. The new agenda for protected areas requires greater inclusivity of a broader spectrum of actors and rights holders, with growing attention to landscapes and seascapes protected by indigenous peoples, local communities, private owners and other actors which complement conservation areas managed by state agencies. Greater attention also needs to be focused on ways to integrate and mainstream protected areas into sustainable development, including promotion of ""green"" infrastructure as a strategic part of responses to climate change. © Author(s) 2012.",,117-131,,2,5,,Sapiens,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Biodiversity; Climate change; Ecosystem services; Protected areas,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In order to promote the conservation of its ecosystem and support operational decision making in this sensitive area, a three-site standard-range (13.5 MHz) CODAR SeaSonde high-frequency (HF) radar was deployed in December 2013. The main goal of this work is to explore basic features of the sea surface circulation in the Ebro deltaic region as derived from reliable HF radar surface current measurements. For this aim, a combined quality control methodology was applied: firstly, 1-year long (2014) real-time web monitoring of nonvelocity-based diagnostic parameters was conducted to infer both radar site status and HF radar system performance. The signal-to-noise ratio at the monopole exhibited a consistent monthly evolution, although some abrupt decreases (below 10 dB), occasionally detected in June for one of the radar sites, impacted negatively on the spatiotemporal coverage of total current vectors. It seemed to be sporadic episodes since radar site overall performance was found to be robust during 2014. Secondly, a validation of HF radar data with independent in situ observations from a moored current meter was attempted for May-October 2014. The accuracy assessment of radial and total vectors revealed a consistently high agreement. The directional accuracy of the HF radar was rated at better than 8°. The correlation coefficient and root mean square error (RMSE) values emerged in the ranges [0.58-0.83] and [4.02-18.31] cm s-1, respectively. The analysis of the monthly averaged current maps for 2014 showed that the HF radar properly represented basic oceanographic features previously reported, namely, the predominant southwestward flow, the coastal clockwise eddy confined south of the Ebro delta mouth, or the Ebro River impulsive-type freshwater discharge. The EOF analysis related the flow response to local wind forcing and confirmed that the surface current field evolved in space and time according to three significantly dominant modes of variability. © 2015 Author(s).",,921-935,,6,11,,Ocean Sci.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Copernicus GmbH,,,,ACCURACY; accuracy assessment; BAY; Catalonia; CURRENTS; DRIFTER DATA; Ebro Delta; eddy; freshwater input; HF RADAR; Mediterranean Water; mooring system; NORTHERN ADRIATIC SEA; PATTERNS; quality control; radar interferometry; RESOLUTION; sea surface topography; SEASONDE; SHELF; signal-to-noise ratio; Spain; Tarragona [Catalonia]; topographic mapping; World Wide Web,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) analysis was performed, and the MPs were classified as polyethylene, polyester, polypropylene, polybutadiene, and polystyrene. Downstream areas (outside of the MCU) showed high levels of MPs, during the winter, due to low precipitation and the predominance of S/SE winds. During summer, precipitation increases, and MPs are exported with surface runoff, resulting in lower level of MPs. Outside MCU areas, a high concentration of tourism houses, commercials, and artisanal fisheries were observed, which could contribute to all types of plastic debris found in our study. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,170,,Mar.

However it allowed to conclude to the success of the Mongoose eradication by trapping alone but the potential success of the House Mouse eradication by trapping and poisoning in March 2001 could not yet be properly evaluated. The spatial distribution of trapping specimens of the target species showed that statistically they concentrate on the dry part of the island. The Mongoose eradication and the sharp decline of the Ship Rat population induced the disappearance of the destruction of Hawksbill Turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) nests and the colonization of the dry part of the island by the Clapper Rail (Rallus longirostris), strictly located in the mangrove before.

These WH seagrass habitats provide a wide range of services to adjacent ecosystems and human communities, and are one of the largest natural carbon sinks on the planet. Climate change is considered the greatest and fastest-growing threat to natural WH properties and evidence of climate-related impacts on seagrass habitats has been growing. The main objective of this study was to assess the vulnerability of WH seagrass habitats to location-specific key climate stressors. Quantitative surveys of seagrass experts and site managers were used to assess exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity of WH seagrass habitats to climate stressors, following the Climate Vulnerability Index approach. Over half of WH seagrass habitats have high vulnerability to climate change, mainly from the long-term increase in sea-surface temperature and short-term marine heatwaves. Potential impacts from climate change and certainty scores associated with them were higher than reported by a similar survey-based study from 10 years prior, indicating a shift in stakeholder perspectives during the past decade. Additionally, seagrass experts' opinions on the cumulative impacts of climate and direct-anthropogenic stressors revealed that high temperature in combination with high suspended sediments, eutrophication and hypoxia is likely to provoke a synergistic cumulative (negative) impact (p <.05). A key component contributing to the high vulnerability assessments was the low adaptive capacity; however, discrepancies between adaptive capacity scores and qualitative responses suggest that managers of WH seagrass habitats might not be adequately equipped to respond to climate change impacts. This thematic assessment provides valuable information to help prioritize conservation actions, monitoring activities and research in WH seagrass habitats. It also demonstrates the utility of a systematic framework to evaluate the vulnerability of thematic groups of protected areas that share a specific attribute. © 2023 The Authors.

The MPAs support the continued access of Inuvialuit (Western Arctic Inuit) to harvest beluga whales for food security and cultural purposes. The land claim and co-management framework for the Inuvialuit Settlement Region support the long term monitoring and management plans for this beluga population. We draw upon over 40 years of monitoring of the Eastern Beaufort Sea (EBS) beluga whale population and consider the utility of biological indicators for MPA management. In particular we focus on the conservation of a beluga population whose home range extends far beyond MPA boundaries (transboundary population with summer core area in excess of 36, 000 Km2). We conclude that the EBS beluga whales are effective indicators of environmental change, but that we have limited understanding of the temporal and spatial relationships between beluga responses to processes that drive environmental change. Management bodies are challenged with implementing indicators that measure the impacts of ‘non-manageable’ stressors such as climate change, and by uncertainty in the mechanistic relationships that drive biological indicators. Given that Inuvialuit continue to be astute observers of the environment and changing conditions, our assessment suggests that Indigenous knowledge will continue to enhance the development and interpretation of beluga whale indicators for use in MPA monitoring and management. © 2018",,128-137,,,212,,Estuar.

During the same period, construction of several storage dams, significant increases in cultivated areas as well as increased abstraction of ground water resources has resulted in continuous reduction of water inflow into the lake. Presently the lake is under very severe pressure such that major parts of it are completely dry and vast salt beds are exposed to wind erosion with significant negative environmental impacts on human populations, settlement areas and croplands. During 2004-12, Department of Environment of Iran (DOE) and the Global Environment Facility (GEF) conducted a joint ""Conservation of IranianWetlands Project"" aiming to develop and execute an ecosystem-based management plan of the lake. Also, since 2010, a national high level committee was organized to identify approaches and conduct programmes for the lake's survival. © Springer Science+Business Media B.V., part of Springer Nature 2018.

While land cover on the upper basin is dominated by field crops, the low basin is mostly occupied by livestock grazing systems. The increased use of inputs (agricultural intensification), and a high degree of riverside vegetation's degradation in the grazing zone, represent an increasing pollution risk for surface water bodies and groundwater. The aim of this work was to find suitable driving factors for a dynamic land cover simulation model (Dyna-CLUE) since1997 to 2005 using logit regression models. Land cover change (Crop, Pasture, Grassland, and Others) was simulated using eleven driving factors accounting for geographic, climatic and soil and infrastructure features. We assessed multicolinearity from the Pearson correlation matrix, and only uncorrelated variables were applied in the logistic regression. Waterlogging, altitude, geomorphology and soil productivity were the main driving factors for the predictions of land cover dynamics, as selected from logistic models. The land-cover simulation model was run according to the actual trends of agricultural expansion. The accuracy of predictive models was tested using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and the good fit showed by the Dyna-CLUE model to data, support its suitability for simulation of land cover dynamics of the Dulce Creek Basin. The expected trajectory of land cover according to current trends warns about a progressive decrease of grasslands cover, and the associated loss of their ecosystem services. Further simulations upon alternative scenarios can help land use planning for production and conservation objectives. © 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.",,194-199,,,7,,,,,,,,Elsevier B.V.,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Procedia Environ.

This study was carried out in degraded areas of restinga in a Conservation Unit in Săo Joăo da Barra, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In 2012, a restoration project was initiated in the area, with implementation of plantings in hexagonal rings and artificial perches. Seedlings were planted in two contrasting situations: sandbanks (dry areas) and depression zones (areas prone to seasonal flooding). The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance of seedlings planted in both areas and accompany natural regeneration. We hypothesised that species planted and recruited in depressions should have better survival rates and increments in height (H) and diameter at the ground level (DGL) than the ones planted in sandbanks. Monitoring of planted seedlings was carried out in November 2016. Both communities had similar mortality (c. 50%). Greater increments in H were found for Inga laurina and Schinus terebinthifolia in depressions. Higher increments in DGL were observed especially for I. laurina, Inga vera and S. terebinthifolia with good performance in both areas. In general, seedlings planted in depressions showed greater performances, which can be related to higher water and nutrient availability. The most abundant natural regenerant species were Scoparia dulcis in sandbanks and S. terebinthifolia in depressions. A high number of regenerants was found associated with artificial perches, especially Cynophalla flexuosa, which demonstrates that the technique facilitated regeneration in the area. © 2021 Ecological Society of Australia",,326-340,,2,47,,Austral Ecol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: John Wiley and Sons Inc,,,,ARTIFICIAL PERCHES; Atlantic Forest; ATLANTIC FOREST; Brazil; ecological restoration; ecosystem; flooding; FOREST RESTORATION; LANDSCAPE; NITROGEN; nucleation; nutrient availability; PLANT COMMUNITY; RAIN; RECRUITMENT; regeneration; restinga; Rio de Janeiro [Brazil]; sandy soil; SEED DISPERSAL; seedling; shrub; SWAMP FOREST,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Monitoring and evaluation are a necessary part of adaptive management to determine whether such protected areas are effectively meeting their objectives. While numerous initiatives have developed methods to evaluate terrestrial and marine protected areas (MPAs), similar efforts and resources are lacking for freshwater protected areas (FPAs), which have become widespread as a community-based fisheries management approach in the Lower Mekong Basin (LMB). This review summarizes published literature on the evaluation of marine and freshwater protected areas to provide guidance on the evaluation of community-managed FPAs in the LMB. Specifically, the review examines several indicators related to common objectives of aquatic protected areas and provides considerations for measuring these indicators in the context of community-managed freshwater protected areas in the LMB. Key conclusions include that first, FPAs should be established with clearly defined objectives, and these objectives should inform the selection of indicators for evaluation. Second, indicators identified for MPAs are highly relevant to FPAs, although methods may require adaptation to a freshwater environment. Finally, socioeconomic and governance indicators are overlooked in both MPA and FPA evaluations compared to biophysical indicators, and interdisciplinary assessment teams could ensure these indicators receive adequate consideration. © 2020 by the authors.

I question whether Marine Protected Areas (MPA) or tabu eria [lit. taboo area] are the most effective tool for regulating inshore fisheries in the Pacific Islands. Tabu eria –customary/neo-traditional spatial-temporal marine closures – are regularly presented as socio-historically embedded practices that are more likely to succeed as a resource management tool than MPAs, which are often deemed to be an “outside” intervention promoted by western conservationists. The case studies demonstrate that the adoption of MPA rather than tabu does not always question the moral competence of local forms of knowing and doing. On the contrary, the local adoption of an MPA can be a strategic, local appropriation, e.g. to justify territorial claims, resource capture, and/or enhance regulatory sanctions. Examples foreground the analytical limits of ‘local’ and ‘foreign’, or a failure to properly address (and locate) human agency. The uncritical valorization of tabu eria as local and authentic shows the same prejudice that its advocates purport to critique. An MPA and tabu equally prioritize and naturalize the essentialist idea of ‘the village-as-community’, (re)presenting ‘the village’ as homogenous and undifferentiated. In short, the reality on-the-ground reiterates that socio-historical specifics matter, and human agency can be difficult to identify. Categories such as MPA, tabu and ‘community’ obscure more than they reveal and can unintentionally erode, rather than enhance, marine conservation objectives. © 2021.

Motivations for restoration from environmental stakeholders most often include recovering lost habitats and associated biodiversity and supporting ecosystem function. In coastal communities, another important justification is recovery of traditional and low-impact fisheries but this has received less attention. Many restoration projects across Europe focus on the translocation of adult stocks, under the assumption that the limit to population growth and recovery is adult growth and survival. This may not necessarily be the case, especially where knowledge of large extant adult populations exists as in the Blackwater, Crouch, Roach and Colne Marine Conservation Zone in Essex, UK. Identifying what limits population growth for restoration and recovery is an important conservation tool. Here, the first size-dependent survival, growth and fecundity data for free-living O. edulis from a novel field experiment are used to parameterize an Integral Projection Model that examines the sensitivity of a flat oyster population to variation in individual vital rates and to potential harvesting – an original objective of a coastal community-led restoration project. Given the high adult fecundity in this species, population recovery is most sensitive to changes in recruitment success; however, elasticity (proportional sensitivity of the population) is more evenly spread across other parameters when recruitment is already high. Based on locally agreed management objectives, recovery to double the current stock biomass should take 16–66 years (mean = 30 years) without active intervention. At that point, harvest rates could be sustained below 5% of the harvestable adult size whilst ensuring ?s remains above 1. © 2020 The Authors.

This study documents the development of MPA networks in the Philippines and identifies critical success factors and issues. Methods were field observation by participation in MPA and fisheries management projects and focused interviews that gathered opinions and observations of primary MPA network stakeholders in the central Visayas region. Findings show that an MPA network is defined through social and ecological criteria. From a social perspective, a network is comprised of people and organizations that manage component MPAs, benefit from the network, and promote the network's viability through shared administrative responsibility and information. To qualify as part of an ecological network, individual MPAs must interact ecologically (e.g., source or sink of larvae and propagating organisms, protection for habitat, and threatened or endangered species) to enhance fisheries and biodiversity conservation. The study found that while social and ecological criteria are shaping MPA networks through science-based planning, integrated management, and coordination, there exist numerous institutional issues related to scaling up to networks from single MPAs. Issues pertain to: limiting access to resources, boundary delineation, monitoring compliance, finding common goals and identity, and conflict resolution. Factors correlated with management success included common institutional processes and legal support, improved understanding of benefits from a network and improved habitat conditions and fishery yields associated with MPAs. © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.",,274-290,,03-Apr,37,,Coast.

The level of scientific knowledge throughout the seascape abutting DML is polarized, with a clear lack of data in its eastern part which is presumably related to differing levels of research effort dedicated by national Antarctic programmes in the region. The lack of basic data on fundamental aspects of the physical, geological and biological nature of eastern DML make predictions of future trends difficult to impossible, with implications for the provision of management advice including spatial management.

The UN has made a global appeal for all countries to mitigate their impact on the environment. Marine environmental protection is one of the most critical and urgent issues in the world and many countries have commenced establishing marine protected areas (MPAs) by implementing ecosystem-based management (EBM) concepts. MPA planning has been considered one of the simplest and most effective methods to protect marine environments. Taiwan has recently developed policies that have focused on its marine environment, and there are plans to increase the size of Taiwan[U+05F3]s MPAs to 20% of its total ocean territory by 2020, thereby achieving a sustainable ocean. To achieve this goal, the government must address specific difficulties associated with the location of MPAs and relevant zoning strategies. This study establishes MPA protection principles and a zoning framework for MPAs in Taiwan by using Gueishan Island in Yilan County as a case study site to examine specific zoning strategies. The protection of 3 objectives (hydrothermal vents, cetacean, and fisheries resources) is discussed in this paper. Multi-criteria spatial analysis and a geographic information system are applied to identify the most crucial area to protect. To understand the stakeholders[U+05F3] opinions and concerns regarding the proposed zoning framework, this research conducted in-depth interviews with experts and stakeholders. MPAs zoning strategies are formulated at the conclusion of this study that could assist in protecting critical marine resources and avoiding conflicts among various usages of the marine area. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,21-29,,,48,,Mar.

Using the ocean sustainably requires overcoming many formidable challenges: overfishing, climate change, ocean acidification, and pollution. Despite gloomy forecasts, there is reason for hope. New tools, practices, and partnerships are beginning to transform local fisheries, biodiversity conservation, and marine spatial planning. The challenge is to bring them to a global scale. We dissect recent successes using a complex adaptive-systems (CAS) framework, which acknowledges the interconnectedness of social and ecological systems. Understanding how policies and practices change the feedbacks in CASs by altering the behavior of different system components is critical for building robust, sustainable states with favorable emergent properties. Our review reveals that altering incentives - either economic or social norms, or both - can achieve positive outcomes. For example, introduction of well-designed rights-based or secure-access fisheries and ecosystem service accounting shifts economic incentives to align conservation and economic benefits. Modifying social norms can create conditions that incentivize a company, country, or individual to fish sustainably, curb illegal fishing, or create large marine reserves as steps to enhance reputation or self-image. In each example, the feedbacks between individual actors and emergent system properties were altered, triggering a transition from a vicious to a virtuous cycle. We suggest that evaluating conservation tools by their ability to align incentives of actors with broader goals of sustainability is an underused approach that can provide a pathway toward scaling sustainability successes. In short, getting incentives right matters. © 2016, National Academy of Sciences. All rights reserved.",,14507-14514,,51,113,,Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S.

This information is unavailable for much of Lake Tanganyika, whose fisheries are threatened by a warming climate, destructive harvesting practices, and sediment pollution. Lake Tanganyika possesses a remarkably diverse fish population. Much of this is concentrated in areas with water depths less than 30 m and on rocky substrate. Here, geophysical tools were used to map benthic habitats in a 21 km2 co-management area of the lake in western Tanzania. Echosounding defined the position of the 30-m isobath, which varies with proximity to deltas and rift-related faults. Side-scan sonar discriminated among four unique substrates: crystalline bedrock, calcite-cemented sandstones, mixed siliciclastic sediments, and shell-rich sediments. Unlithified mixed silts and sands constitute over 91% of the study area. Rocky substrate composed of crystalline basement and calcite-cemented sandstone make up the less than 9% of the substrate in the study area. Crystalline bedrock was present from 0 to 30 m water depth, whereas the calcite-cemented sandstones were encountered in water less than 5 m deep. The spatial organization of rocky substrates is interpreted to be controlled by basin structure and lake level history; these habitats make ideal targets for establishing new small-scale protected areas. The techniques illustrated in this study are broadly applicable elsewhere in Lake Tanganyika, and to other large lakes where data needs for placing conservation reserves are lacking. © 2020 International Association for Great Lakes Research",,243-254,,2,46,,J.

In tropical regions, particularly along the Brazilian coast, the spatial variability of marine habitats is poorly known. The aim of this study is to evaluate the geodiversity of the region as an indicator to benthic habitat distribution, applying an integrative approach utilizing existing broad-scale bathymetric and seafloor geological data sets. A digital bathymetric model (DBM) of the Pernambuco Continental shelf (PCS) was generated at 80 m resolution from available bathymetric data. Through the benthic terrain model (BTM), DBM derivatives and the benthic structures were generated. These structures were combined with the textural seabed classification using tools in ArcGIS™ 10.5 Spatial Analyst to identify 22 seabed geomorphic features, including a submarine canyon confirmed around 8°20?S. These geomorphological features describe the surficial characteristics of the seafloor, providing the baseline for subsequent habitat-mapping studies, and can therefore be considered a potential habitat map. Three profiles taken to describe the cross-shelf seafloor environment (North, Center, and South) extracted from interpolated seabed geomorphological map revealed that sediment grain size becomes coarser from inshore to offshore, with predominantly sand and gravel sediment grain sizes. Overall, these results indicated a great potential for PCS due to the geodiversity present in the area, which leads to a higher biodiversity as well. Based on that, the central portion of PCS is suggested as a priority area for conservation because it was the most geomorphologically diverse. These terrain features influence the environmental conditions, such as currents, waves, nutrients, and other oceanographic parameters, which results in high diversity of benthic habitats in the region. This study presents a first step in characterizing the geomorphology of PCS by using reliable, standardized data. © 2019, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,911-923,,6,40,,Geo-Mar.

The Namibian Islands' Marine Protected Area (NIMPA) primarily aims to improve the status of threatened seabird species breeding in Namibia and therefore needed to include all Namibian seabird breeding islands and key foraging areas. For the design of the NIMPA we used information on the foraging ecology of globally endangered African penguins Spheniscus demersus and locally endangered Cape gannets Morus capensis obtained in 2005 and 2006 from three breeding islands in Namibia using data logger technology. Additional data logger studies (2008-2010) were conducted on African penguins and globally endangered bank cormorants Phalacrocorax neglectus following the NIMPA's design phase to test the adequacy of its boundaries regarding foraging ranges. Foraging areas greatly overlapped with those identified previously and were located within the NIMPA. Foraging ranges of African penguins from Mercury (mean 21.5. ±. 6.6. km) and Halifax Islands (mean 12.1. ±. 7.0. km) as well as of bank cormorants from Mercury Island (mean 3.2. ±. 2.2. km) fell within the boundaries of the NIMPA. The mean foraging range for Cape gannets from Mercury Island (103.5. ±. 35.4. km) was only partly included; core feeding activities took place within the NIMPA boundaries. These results demonstrate that despite the initial paucity of data, the NIMPA's design was adequate in terms of encompassing key foraging areas of threatened seabirds and the use of preliminary data allowed the timely proclamation of the NIMPA while further studies were conducted to verify this. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,136-145,,,156,,Biol.

The aims of this review are to systematically identify and collate studies focusing on the environment in the region. We found that, after Google Scholar search, in over 112,000 results for 17 disciplines, three countries (Nigeria, Cameroon and Togo) were subjected to much more investigations than the other countries. Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone were the least studied countries, and overall there was a significant West to East increasing trend for all seven considered disciplines (Ecology, Zoology, Botany, Conservation biology, Pollution, Climate change and Ecological economy) in terms of number of results. Within ‘Ecology’ ‘macroecology and biodiversity’ was the most studied subdiscipline. Baseline taxonomic studies in ‘Zoology’ and ‘Botany’ received little interest, particularly in 2006–2016. For ‘Conservation biology’, studies focusing on ‘protected areas’ were more numerous than for any other subsector, followed by ‘biodiversity surveys’. Our analysis revealed that there were significantly more studies focusing on forests than on mangrove areas. Our results pointed out that, there is an urgent need for more rigorous taxonomical and fine-scale distribution studies of organisms across the whole region, not only for the traditionally overlooked groups (e.g. invertebrates). It is also stressed that studies of macropatterns in conservation biology research for the region should be performed by more reliable data at the more local scale, given the misuse that has been done by general studies of these limited/biased data for inferring patterns. Long-term longitudinal studies on biodiversity patterns of important forest sites and population biology of selected populations are urgently needed, as these have been almost entirely neglected to date.

Larger islands are often the targets of conservation assuming that the island area mainly determines species richness, and that species composition is nested across islands. However, in small-island these patterns could be altered because of stochastic processes, and species assemblages could be disharmonious. In addition, human impact could further modify the distribution pattern and diversity. Here we use the case of seven islands from the coastal system of Coquimbo as a model to address the role of environmental variables and human impacts on species richness and assembly rules of plants, birds, and mammals. We hypothesize (a) the existence of a small-island effect, and the prevalence of habitat diversity and anthropogenic impacts as main drivers of species richness, and (b) the existence of disharmonious assemblages, characterized by a low degree of nestedness and random patterns of species co-occurrence. Our results showed that (a) species richness is mainly correlated with habitat diversity, and only weakly related to island area supporting the 'small-island effect' and (b) species composition is highly structured, but that such structure may be the result of anthropogenic activities. Nestedness was observed in plants and landbirds, while co-occurrence patterns were only detected in plants. Assemblages in small-islands departed from the nestedness pattern and maintain rare species. Currently, only three of the seven islands are protected by national regulations, excluding the smaller ones that are subjected to human disturbance and invasive mammals. Our study suggests that it necessary to include all the islands in a major protected area to preserve both richness and species composition of a number of representative islands of the Humboldt current systems. We showed that conservation plans solely based on island area might not be robust. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,13-32,,1,21,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,anthropogenic effect; Aves; avifauna; BIODIVERSITY; BIOGEOGRAPHY; CALIFORNIA; Chile; coastal zone; Conservation; conservation planning; Coquimbo; environmental disturbance; environmental factor; HABITAT DIVERSITY; habitat quality; Humboldt current; Humboldt Current; island biogeography; Island biogeography; mammal; Mammalia; nestedness; NESTEDNESS; NORTHERN; NUMBERS; Pacific Ocean; PATTERNS; plant community; protected area; rare species; RICHNESS; Small-island effect; species diversity; species richness; SPECIES-AREA RELATIONSHIPS; stochasticity,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Genetic biodiversity is a key component of biological variation, but despite scientific knowledge and far-reaching political goals, genetic biodiversity remains neglected in marine management. Previous research highlights lack of knowledge among managers as one explanation to the implementation deficit. This multidisciplinary study builds on the identified need for an improved knowledge transfer between science and ongoing management. A basic knowledge package on genetic biodiversity in the Baltic Sea was presented as either a lecture or a deliberative group discussion to two separate samples of public managers who are involved in Baltic Sea and other biodiversity management at the regional level in Sweden. The empirical findings show that the communicated information has an impact on the public managers’ beliefs on genetic biodiversity of the Baltic Sea. Lectures seem more efficient to transfer knowledge on this theme. Those who received information through a lecture strengthen their confidence in area protection as a management tool to conserve genetic diversity. They were also more convinced of the obligation of authorities at national and regional level to take on larger responsibility for genetic conservation than those managers who participated in a deliberative discussion. © 2016, The Author(s).",,841-849,,3,17,,Reg.

Both researchers and managers call for platforms for knowledge exchange between science and practice. However, few scientific studies on the potential effects of such knowledge transfer have been conducted. The present study is a follow-up to Lundmark et al. (2017), which identified significant effects of two forms of knowledge communication on conservation managers’ concerns and beliefs in regard to Baltic Sea genetic biodiversity. This study departs from Lundmark et al. (2017) and explores (a) whether the identified alterations in knowledge and beliefs persist over time, and (b) whether potential stability differs between different types of policy beliefs as well as between two types of knowledge communication (lecture and group deliberation). The results of this follow-up study show that the positive impacts on managers’ self-assessed knowledge remained, while the effects on policy beliefs largely had vanished a few months after the knowledge communication. Thus, changes in beliefs seem perishable, suggesting that continuity is more important than the form of educational efforts. © 2018 The Authors",,223-229,,,99,,Mar.

We reviewed characteristics and approaches that contribute to successful global marine conservation efforts. One successful characteristic emphasized in most case studies is the importance of incorporating stakeholders at all phases of the process. Clearly defined goals and objectives at all stages of the design process are important for improved communication and standardized expectations of stakeholder groups. The inclusion of available science to guide the size and design of marine protected areas and to guide clear monitoring strategies that assess success at scientific, social, and economic levels is also an important tool in the process. Common shortcomings in marine conservation planning strategies include government instability and resultant limitations to monitoring and enforcement, particularly in developing nations. Transferring knowledge to local community members has also presented challenges in areas where in situ training, local capacity, and existing infrastructure are sparse. Inaccessible, unavailable, or outdated science is often a limitation to conservation projects in developed and developing nations.

Multiple-use zoning can help to balance human uses with conservation goals. Developing effective zoning plans requires information on the condition and uses of marine resources and the conflicts among them. Through interviews and participant observation, we investigated residents' reliance on nearshore fisheries in Ko Chang Marine National Park, a designated ""no-take"" area in eastern Thailand. Approximately 25% of households depended on fishing as their main source of income, with boat owners earning average net wages of 7-68 US$/ day in small-scale fisheries. Apparently unaware of restrictions on resource use, small-scale fishers reported working in 95% of the park's marine waters. Understanding the needs and usage patterns of small-scale fishers will help to inform management and zoning plans for Ko Chang and provide a valuable example for other parks in the region.

Therefore, comprehensive spatial classification of a region’s environmental characteristics is essential for effective marine conservation. This study aimed to construct geophysical and chemical environmental delineation of the Lesser Sunda Islands which are located in Indonesia. This area is an ecoregion in the coral triangle that has been a primary concern of global biodiversity conservation strategies. METHODS: This study utilized eleven global environmental variables that were accessed from global marine databases. After performing a principal component analysis, a fuzzy C-means clustering technique was used to classify the region into groups based on environmental characteristics in term of seasonal variability. It was expected that the areas within each group would have identical attributes and ecological processes. FINDINGS: The results suggested that the marine environmental factors in Lesser Sunda can be simplified using a principal component analysis technique: 6 principal component factors explained 81.06 percent of the overall raw data variability for the wet season, and 7 principal component variables explained 84.51 percent of the overall raw data variability for the dry season. Then, the area can be delineated into 5 groups (wet season) and 10 groups (dry season) with different environmental characteristics. This method’s classified groups principally inferred the Indian Ocean and Bali Sea, Savu Sea and Flores Sea, and Banda Sea as distinct clusters. In particular, the group that included the Indian Ocean had characteristics including lower nitrate and sea surface temperature concentrations, as well as higher potential hydrogen salinity and distance from the shore. CONCLUSION: The findings of this study showed that the single marine conservation area in Lesser Sunda is not sufficient to adequately represent the physicochemical dynamics in the area. The proposed delineation result will supplement the existing bioregion classification of marine areas, such as the Marine Ecoregions of the World. Moreover, it is also consistent with existing conservation programs, including the notable national marine protected areas of the Savu Sea. Nevertheless, the acknowledged biogeographic group of the Indian Ocean indicates that countries must work together to successfully manage marine protected areas and achieve their conservation objectives. This work serves as a baseline for both academic research and ecological assessment, and it will contribute to marine protected areas strategies and conservation efforts in the Lesser Sunda Islands © 2023, Global Journal of Environmental Science and Management.All Rights Reserved.",,463-476,,3,9,,Glob.

This is demonstrated in the case of Doubtful Sound (New Zealand) where the recent proliferation of tour operators has brought pressures to bear upon a population of bottlenose dolphins resident in the sound. Strict methodologies are necessary to objectively interpret responses to tourism-induced anthropogenic impacts upon cetaceans. Previous research in this field has established that boat interactions with dolphins in Doubtful Sound affect the behavioural budget of the dolphin population, and that dolphins are more sensitive to interactions with boats when they are resting and to a lesser extent when they are socialising. This article reports on a programme of research that employed observational data to explore the applicability of tourism management techniques grounded in spatial ecology. The data provided scientific evidence that determining critical habitat through spatio-ecological analysis is a powerful tool to protect marine mammals in New Zealand, and elsewhere, from biologically significant tourism-induced impacts. The delineation of multi-levelled marine sanctuaries may, therefore, be an effective approach to managing the impacts of tourism upon marine mammals. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd.

Orchidaceae is one of the most threatened plant families, as most species are vulnerable to habitat changes because of their strong ecological specialization. Italy plays a key role in biogeography as a result of its geographical position and hosts one of the most diverse orchid floras in the Mediterranean Basin. The aim of this work is to depict the degree of protection granted to orchids by the current network of PAs across the entire Italian country, testing whether distributional and ecological features affect species' conservation representativeness, and identifying a priority list of species to be further protected. We compiled a dataset comprising 71,693 occurrence records, the spatial conservation representativeness was calculated as the percent of occurrences falling within the borders of PAs. Generalized Linear Models were run to assess differences in the spatial conservation representativeness among species according to the preferred habitat, endemicity, chorology, and protection by the Habitats Directive. We produced a list of species to be used for prioritizing conservation planning. Our findings show that emphasis is needed on adopting orchid species linked to primary or well mature habitats to select additional PAs with high conservation significance.

The aim of this study was to evaluate ant assemblages in the Turvo State Park, which is the largest conservation unit in the State of Rio Grande do Sul and presents an important role on biodiversity protection. Two samplings were conducted in 2019, one in the summer (January) and the other in the spring (November and December), at five sites 2 km apart, with pitfall traps (soil and canopy), sardine baits, glucose, beating net, sweeping net and manual collection. We sampled 121 species in the summer and 120 in the spring, totaling 163 ant species. A total of 78 species (47.8%) occurred in both sampling seasons. The richest genera in the study were Camponotus (S = 30), Pheidole (S = 23) and Linepithema (S = 11). Seventeen species were recorded for the first time for Rio Grande do Sul state. The results indicate that this is one of the most species-rich assemblages of ants ever surveyed in a conservation unit in southern Brazil. The study highlights the importance of Conservation Units as protected environments against habitat loss for ant biodiversity.

To achieve effective conservation, parts of the plateau were designated as the Langbiang Biosphere Reserve, an UNESCO World Network aiming to improve relationships between inhabitants and their environments. Amongst the rich endemic flora of the plateau are three gesneriads ascribed to Primulina, a calciphilous genus with high species diversity in the vast limestone karsts stretching from southern China to northern Vietnam. However, a recent phylogenetic study questioned the generic placement of the Langbiang Primulina, corroborating with observations on the geographical distribution, habitat preference, and phyllotaxy of the three species. Based on phylogenetic analyses of nuclear ITS and plastid trnL-F DNA sequences of a comprehensive sampling covering nearly all genera of the Old World Gesneriaceae, we demonstrate that the three Langbiang Primulina species form a fully supported clade distantly related to other Primulina. As this clade is biogeographically, ecologically, morphologically, and phylogenetically distinct worthy of generic recognition, we propose to name it Langbiangia gen. nov. to highlight the rich and unique biodiversity of the Langbiang Plateau. By means of this taxonomic endeavor, we are hoping to raise the conservation awareness of this biodiversity heritage of southern Vietnam and promote the importance of Langbiang Biosphere Reserve that is crucial for achieving action-oriented global targets of the post-2020 global biodiversity framework (GBF) of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD)-effective conservation and management of at least 30% of biodiverse terrestrial, inland water, and costal and marine areas by 2030-that has been agreed at the COP15 in Montréal in December 2022.  © 2023 Luu et al.",,,,05-May,18,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,AMPHIBIA ANURA MICROHYLIDAE; Article; BA NATIONAL-PARK; BILLOLIVIA; biodiversity; Biodiversity; BIOSPHERE RESERVES; China; conservation biology; ecosystem; Ecosystem; GENERA; geographic distribution; habitat; Lamiales; Langbiangia; new genus; nonhuman; ORCHIDACEAE; PETROCODON; phylogeny; Phylogeny; plant; plant structures; POLYPODIALES; Primulina; taxonomy; TELEOSTEI CYPRINIDAE; THEACEAE; Viet Nam; Vietnam,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Elasmobranchs represented 6% of fishers' total catch of all fish (including released individuals), and 0.8% of fishers' total harvest (i.e. retained individuals) across all survey days. The majority of elasmobranchs caught by fishers were released, primarily because they were perceived as being inedible. 3. Recreational fishers' self-reported handling and release behaviour for elasmobranchs is largely consistent with 'best practice' guidelines except that fishers had low use of circle hooks and barbless hooks, and a significant proportion (33%) reported using stainless steel hooks. 4. Most fishers had positive attitudes towards elasmobranchs, placing high importance on releasing sharks and rays in good condition (86%), high value on their existence (84%), and low value on catching them (63%). 5. Results indicate that post-release mortality is probably the largest source of recreational fishing mortality of elasmobranchs in the Great Barrier Reef. Future research should be targeted at obtaining better estimates of species-specific post-release mortality levels, understanding how post-release survival can be increased by changing fishing techniques or fisher behaviour, and developing more effective methods of engaging fishers in elasmobranch conservation. © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,312-318,,3,20,,Aquatic Conserv.

For instance, effort is homogenously distributed over areas from which subsets of reserves are chosen. I tested this and other model assumptions with a case study of the multiple-use Jervis Bay Marine Park. Prior to zoning of the park I conducted 166 surveys of the park's recreational fisheries, plotting the location of 16,009 anglers. I converted these plots into diagrams of fishing effort and analyzed correlates between fishing and habitat and the effect of two reserve designs - the draft and final zoning plans of the park - on the 15 fisheries observed. Fisheries were strongly correlated with particular habitats and had negatively skewed and often bimodal spatial distribution. The second mode of intensely fished habitat could be 6 SD greater than the fishery's mean allocation of effort by area. In the draft-zoning plan, sanctuary zone (no-take) area and potential subduction of fishing effort were similar. In the final plan, which was altered in response to public comment, the area of sanctuary zone increased, and the impact on fishing effort decreased. In only one case was a fishery's most intensely targeted location closed to fishing. Because of the discriminating manner with which fishers target habitats, if simple percentage targets are used for planning, sanctuary location can be adjusted to avoid existing fishing effort. According to modeled outcomes, the implication of this may be diminished reserve effectiveness. To address this, reserve area should be implicitly linked to subducted fishing effort when promoting or modeling MPAs. ©2006 Society for Conservation Biology.",,1466-1476,,5,20,,Conserv.

The designation objectives and scopes, zoning schemes, management tasks, and environmental requirements of SMPA are different from Marine Natural Reserve (MNR). Different voices from supporters and opponents were raised on this new kind of policy. For a better understanding on this policy, we analyzed SMPA and its relationship and difference with MNR, dissected development of SMPAs in China, and discussed its governance, management and experiences. The main findings are: (1) SMPA policy is a complementary strategy for MNR policy. SMPA policy can reduce the conflicts and narrow the gap between conservation and local economic development; (2) The coverage of SMPA has sharply increased since the establishment of the first national SMPA in 2005,which demonstrates the Chinese government has paid great attention to multiple-use of marine resources in order to achieve sustainable development. (3) Lack of financial funding, baseline data and scientific research are affecting the effectiveness of conservation and management of SMPA policy. In order to ameliorate the SMPA policy, we suggest (1) making overall strategic planning for multiple-use of marine resources, (2) coordinating the role of central government and local government, and considering the up-bottom system as a complement, and (3) increasing financial support from central government and local government, accumulating baseline data, and conducting systematic scientific research.

AMOVA analysis and landscape genetic interpolation were employed to estimate genetic differentiation among populations, and maximum likelihood method and Bayesian method were used to reconstruct the phylogenetic tree based on cpDNA haplotypes.Result: 1) The combined lengths of trnL-trnF and psbK-psbI was 584 bp, 14 polymorphic sites were detected, and a total of 9 haplotypes were identified. The total gene diversity across all populations (hT) and the average gene diversity within-population (hS) were 0.755 and 0.487, respectively. 2) Results from AMOVA suggested that 65.71% of the observed variation was due to differences among populations. A significant genetic structure (NST > GST, P < 0.05) was identified in the natural distribution of the species. 3) Nine haplotypes clustered into two clades, corresponding to the Altay region and the Tacheng region, respectively. The haplotype network and PCoA analyses also showed two groups consistent with the geographical regions of the Altay and Tacheng. Landscape genetic interpolation analyses indicated significant genetic differentiation between populations from Altay and Tacheng regions. 4) The populations of Kong Dunlin foothills of Habahe County(HBK) and the Group 2 in Protected Areas of Yumin County(YMB2) were identified as having a high degree of genetic diversity,priority should be given to these areas for conservation of this endangered plant.Conclusion:Based on the cpDNA sequences, most of the observed variation of Amygdalus ledebouriana was due to differences among the populations, and significant genetic differentiation between the Altay and Tacheng regions was identified.

A new descriptive method is proposed to establish the sustainable conservation strategy of protected wildlife in the current urbanization scenario. We use the Habitat Quality module in the Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Tradeoffs model (InVEST-HQ), straightforward construction package of complex ecological niche Ecological Niche Modeling at The MetaLand EcologyLab (ENMTML) and ecological corridors construction model Species Distribution Model toolbox (SDMtoolbox) to distinguish the priority protected areas (PAs) and construct the ecological corridors of Gallinula chloropus (G. chloropus) in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) region, China in 2018. The results show that the PAs are fragmented and only occupy 0.05% of total area in BTH region, which indicate an urgent conservation issue in highly urbanization area. For the sustainable conservation strategy of protected G. chloropus, 25 ecological corridors comprised 2790.8 km are required to construct, mainly distributed in Beijing and Tianjin city. Ecological corridors are also distributed close to the border of southeast, southwest and eastern coastal areas of the BTH region. In order to optimize the ecological corridors, 9 important ecological corridors comprised 813.4 km are suggested to build firstly, which are mainly distributed in the central and eastern coastal areas of the BTH region. Our combined modeling (ENMTML-InVEST-HQ) indicate that based on actual species occurrence data and land uses, it can successfully generate the PAs which should be paid more attention. Furthermore, concrete measures to build ecological corridors which connect PAs in BTH region are proposed. In order to well-targeted organized planning in highly urbanized areas, measures to protect key habitats of wildlife need to be defined and this research provides a reference for sustainable protection and management of wildlife. © 2022",,,,,68,,Ecol.

China hosted the majority of N. nebulosa’s historical range, however with the impact of poaching, deforestation and land use change, the range and population of N. nebulosa had undergone severe contraction and decline throughout the past decades. In addition, relevant research and effective conservation actions were still lacking both in and out China. As the result of the drastic changes in recent decades, the current distribution and survival outlook of this charismatic large cat in China requires urgent and rigorous reassessment in order to raise more awareness and conservation investment to ensure the survival of this species in the future. Specifically, this study has 3 objectives: (1) to review the historical range of N. nebulosa in China since 1950; (2) to assess the current distribution of N. nebulosa in China from 2010 to 2020; (3) to identify the existing potential habitats of N. nebulosa in China and evaluate their habitat suitability in terms of area, quality, deforestation and protected area. Methods: (1) To review the historical range of N. nebulosa in China, we searched and examined the occurrence records of N. nebulosa with solid evidence in specimen collections, peer-reviewed publications, local gazetteers and media reports since 1950, and summarized the confirmed years of attainable presence record in each provincial administrative division of China. (2) As for the current distribution of N. nebulosa from 2010 to 2020, we conducted camera-trapping surveys in 55 sites across China, and reviewed contemporary camera-trapping studies in China for confirmed captures of N. nebulosa. (3) To identify the existing potential habitats of N. nebulosa, we joined the results obtained in this study with results from previous studies to generate a presences/absence localities dataset of N. nebulosa in China, and then calibrated the habitat suitability models that was recently published with this dataset to determine the potential habitat patches within China. Lastly, potential habitat patches identified in this manner were overlaid with protection area and administrative divisions, and habitat suitability change was assessed by forest cover change in 2010–2020. Results: Back to the 20th century, the distribution of N. nebulosa in China spanned 17 provincial administrative divisions. However, the once widely distributed N. nebulosa can now only be confirmed to continuously occur in 10 study sites of 2 divisions: Yunnan Province and Tibetan Autonomous Region. There has been no evidence for the presence of N. nebulosa in 12 of its historically distributed divisions for more than 20 years. The species’ potentially suitable habitats in mainland China are now restricted to 9 patches with a total area of 64,093 km2, and in only 2 trans-border patches in the southwestern can we confirm the presence of the species from 2010 to 2020: the Himalaya-Western Hengduan-Arakan Mountains and South Wuliangshan-Annamite regions. Although in these 2 patches, the contiguous area abroad (428,511 km2) was much more extensive than that in China (41,373 km2), the extent of annual forest cover loss in 2010?2020 was slighter in China (0.84%) comparing to abroad (1.57%). In addition, the percentage of protected area cover was higher in China (34.33%) than abroad (22.02%) in these 2 patches. Conclusion: From 2010 to 2020, N. nebulosa occurrence in China was confirmed from southwest Tibet, west Yunnan, and south Yunnan, where populations were likely only sustained in transborder habitats with domestic challenges and ongoing severe threats abroad. Relevant departments should strengthen domestic anti-poaching law enforcement, restore habitat suitability and connectivity, and foster transborder collaboration among protected areas, research institutes, governmental organizations and local communities, in order to ensure the long-term survival and growth of N. nebulosa populations in such border regions. In particular, special attention and efforts should be put to Mengla County, Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, where N. nebulosa still exists and 68.36% of its potential habitat is already protected. © 2022, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

In coastal zones, ALAN is a significant anthropogenic pressure with potentially detrimental effects on ecosystems. By integrating satellite data with geographic datasets such as Corine Land Cover (CLC), Natura 2000 protected areas, and Posidonia oceanica meadows, this study aims to characterize and analyse the temporal and spatial variations in ALAN across these domains. The findings reveal substantial differences in light pollution between domains and over time, with coastal terrestrial areas exhibiting the highest levels of ALAN. In contrast, marine areas further offshore experience reduced light pollution, particularly within the 1-nautical-mile domain. This study also indicates that protected areas, especially those within the Natura 2000 network, show significantly lower ALAN levels than non-protected areas, highlighting the effectiveness of conservation efforts. Statistical analyses, including ANOVAs, demonstrate that factors such as geographic domain, year, province, and CLC classes significantly influence ALAN distribution. This study advocates for considering ALAN as a critical factor in environmental impact assessments, such as those under the Maritime Spatial Planning Directive (MSP) and Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD), providing valuable insights to support policies aimed at mitigating the environmental impact of light pollution on coastal and marine ecosystems. © 2024 by the authors.",,,,12,13,,Land,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,artificial light at night; coastal zone management; conservation management; Corine Land Cover; environmental impact; geographical information systems; GIS; habitat directive; habitat management; land cover; LEGISLATION; Marine Strategy Directive; Maritime Spatial Planning Directive; POLLUTION; Posidonia oceanica; satellite data; spatial planning,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A measure of variability, called pseudo-multivariate dissimilarity-based standard error (MultSE), was recently proposed for assessing sample-size adequacy in ecological communities. Here, we used it on coastal sand dune systems in three Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) in Tuscany. Our aim was to assess the minimum number of replicates necessary to adequately characterize sand dune environments in terms of differences between habitats and SACs, after a preliminary baseline assessment of plant diversity. Analysis of ? and ? diversity indicated that especially between habitats the three SACs protect different plant communities. The study of the MultSE profiles showed that the minimum number of replicates needed to assess differences among habitats varied between 10 and 25 plots. Two-way PERMANOVA and SIMPER analysis on the full and reduced datasets confirmed that SACs and habitats host different plant communities, and that the contribution of the target species remained unchanged even with a reduced sample size. The proposed methodological approach can be used to develop cost-effective monitoring programs and it can be useful for plant ecologists and biodiversity managers for assessing ecosystem health and changes. © 2020 by the authors.",,,,4,12,,Diversity,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI AG,,,,43; ABUNDANCE; biodiversity; CLASSIFICATION; coastal sand dune habitats; Coastal sand dune habitats; COMMUNITIES; conservation status; dune; ECC; ECOSYSTEMS; environmental monitoring; habitat conservation; habitat directive 92; Habitat directive 92/43/ECC; Italy; multivariate pseudo-standard error; Multivariate pseudo-standard error; MULTIVARIATE-ANALYSIS; plant community; plant diversity; Plant diversity; PLANT DIVERSITY PATTERNS; protected area; RAREFACTION; sampling; sampling effort; Sampling effort; species assemblage; Species assemblage; SPECIES-DIVERSITY; statistical distribution; survey; Tuscany; VEGETATION; VULNERABILITY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

As wildlife tourism has become an increasing topic of study for both social and biological scientists, researchers have debated whether these activities serve conservation goals by providing non-consumptive values for wildlife. Discussion of predator tourism requires additional recognition of predator-specific biological and ecological characteristics, consideration of human safety concerns, and mitigation of human wildlife conflict. By reviewing tourism activities centered on both aquatic and terrestrial predators from diverse taxa (sharks, crocodiles, and big cats), we evaluate the potential benefits and conservation challenges associated with predator tourism. Our review suggests that positive conservation outcomes are possible, but not assured given historical, cultural, and ecological complexities. We explore some of the factors which determine whether tourism contributes to conservation outcomes, including (1) effective protection of animals and habitats, (2) avoidance and mitigation of human-wildlife conflict, (3) quality of associated educational interpretation and outreach, (4) collaboration with local stakeholders, and (5) use of generated funds to advance conservation goals.

Previous surveys of the coastal zone of the Picinguaba unit in the Serra do Mar State Park (PESM), Ubatuba, northern Săo Paulo state, list macroalgal species from the rocky shores and the mangroves of Fazenda Inlet. The present study aimed to improve the taxonomic survey of seaweeds from the Picinguaba unit and to evaluate the suitability of sampling methodology for rocky shore communities in this conservation unit. Thirteen sampling stations, situated between Almada and Cambury Headlands, were studied in summer 2007; this part of the PESM coastal zone is subject to anthropogenic interference. We carefully searched for macroalgae in different rocky habitats, from the sublittoral fringe towards the sand domain. Aiming to standardize sampling effort at each station, the same specialist searched for macroalgae over a 20 m horizontal extension of the rocky shore, for one hour, by apnea diving. 128 infrageneric taxa were identified (80 Rhodophyta, 22 Ochrophyta and 26 Chlorophyta).

Sixty four species are new occurrences for the rocky shores of PESM. Taking into account other studies, carried out on the northern Săo Paulo coast and on the southernmost Rio de Janeiro coast, the sampling effort of the present study can be considered suitable for taxonomic surveys, because it produced a comparable number of macroalgal species.

In addition, these data can help design conservation and management strategies as well as identify priority areas for the species. The West Indian manatee (Trichechus manatus) is listed as endangered throughout its range. In Guatemala, it is distributed along the Caribbean coast. Anthropogenic activities appear to be having a direct pressure on the species, affecting the status of the population. Objective: The general purpose of this study was to analyze the 30 years of documented manatee stranding reports available for Guatemala. Two specific objectives were defined to: 1) conduct a spatial analysis of manatee strandings to identify the areas of high stranding concentration, and 2) determine whether there were sex differences in the number of strandings. Methods: Characteristics and areas of concentration of manatee strandings were described along the Caribbean coast between 1992 to 2022. Sites with the highest probable density of strandings were identified using a Kernel density analysis. We compared the number of stranding events that occurred in each protected area that included manatees in their management plans and each municipality of Izabal. We determined whether there were sex differences in the number of stranded manatees. We use the potential biological removal to estimate the maximum number of manatees that can be removed from the population due to anthropogenic causes without negatively impacting species survival. Results: Forty-three manatee stranding events were recorded throughout the species' range in Guatemala (48 total individuals). The sites with the highest predicted density of strandings were Santo Tomas de Castilla bay, followed by Lake Izabal (including the limits of the Refugio de Vida Silvestre Bocas del Polochic) and Parque Nacional Rio Dulce. The majority of the cases were registered in protected areas (60 %). Estimates of potential biological removal were equivalent to less than one manatee per year, which was exceeded by the annual average of stranded manatees recorded (three manatees). Conclusions: Anthropogenic activities cause mortality of manatees in this region, despite the implementation of protected areas. Poaching was identified as the main cause of manatee mortality in Guatemala. The implementation of management strategies focused on minimizing threats to the species, based on the application of environmental legislation and environmental awareness, is essential. The creation and implementation of a protocol for the stranding of marine mammals on the Caribbean coast of Guatemala is necessary, in order to obtain standardized records of these events and conduct rescue efforts and releases when possible.",,,,,71,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001152342400007,,,,,,,conservation; CONSERVATION; LIMITS; MANAGEMENT; marine mammals; mortality; MORTALITY; poaching; protected areas,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Vegetation plots, recording the presence or abundance of all plant species co-occurring within a plot, are currently used to identify terrestrial Natura 2000 habitat types, whose descriptions are mainly based on phytosociological units. However, vegetation plots are time-consuming and frequently restricted to the growing season. Moreover, no vegetation plots can be regarded as exhaustive, and significant inter-observer variation has been highlighted. We studied whether reducing the number of recorded species and the time spent carrying out a vegetation plot had an impact on vegetation unit assignment using species presence. We also studied if vegetation plots recorded in winter could be used for vegetation unit assignment. Location: Mainland France. Methods: We used 273 vegetation plots covering French temperate and mountainous forests. The time at which species were sighted was recorded. We also estimated whether a species was recognisable in winter. We used a classification program to compare assignments based on complete and incomplete vegetation plots. Results: Ten species and five minutes were sufficient to assign a plot to an association, and to an alliance, seven species and four minutes. Vegetation unit assignment proved feasible in winter, especially at the alliance level. Conclusions: We confirmed that a limited number of species is sufficient to assign vegetation plots to vegetation units. However, mapping habitats requires habitat identification and delimitation. This study confirms current field habits, particularly when creating a habitat map, usually based on a limited number of recorded species. Lastly, it confirms that the use of vegetation plots coming from a great variety of sources is relevant to create habitat time series, crucial tools for monitoring habitats at a national scale. © 2022 International Association for Vegetation Science.",,,,1,25,,Appl.

However, ambiguity and connectivity in the marine system has the potential to create conflict between neighboring States, particularly in contested border regions with overlapping ecosystems and migratory species. Interest in the concept of transboundary conservation is expanding in the marine system. Increasingly, there is a strategic move toward attempting to combine conservation issues with resolving conflicts between States by promoting these initiatives as peace parks. Although this strategy has the potential to provide solutions there are risks involved. A review of nine marine transboundary initiatives provides insights into hazards and best practices that may inform future conservation and spatial planning in this system. Results suggest that, like most conservation, long-term sustainability of projects is based on transparency, the availability of appropriate funding, and governmental will. While the branding of marine transboundary conservation initiatives as peace parks may help to provide initial political impetus to projects, maintaining governmental interest is a significant long-term issue. This review aims to stimulate the debate on strategies for developing marine transboundary conservation for the future, bearing in mind the potential for conflict in these regions. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.",,90-98,,2,5,,Conserv.

The EU has been the goal for many eastern European States, for Croatia accession remains a priority and underpins many of its national policies. However, entry into the EU requires certain commitments and concessions. In October 2003 the Croatian parliament declared an ecological and fisheries protection zone in the Adriatic. Under pressure the zone was suspended, finally entering into force in March 2008 exempting EU States. There are other marine conflicts between Croatia and the EU, particularly the contested maritime border with Slovenia, and the development of the Croatian fishing fleet in opposition to the Common Fisheries Policy. Conversely, attempts to harmonise Croatian Nature Protection with the EU Habitats Directive, facilitated by pre-accession funding, has galvanised conservation policy. Since 2005 two marine protected areas have been declared, significantly increasing the marine ecosystem under protection. Finally, the development of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive is the latest EU attempt to integrate environmental policy in the maritime realm. This will have an effect not only on member States but neighbouring countries. For marine nature protection to be effective in the region the Adriatic Sea needs to be viewed as a mutually important shared and limited resource not a bargaining chip. Negotiations of the EU and Croatia have been watched closely by the other Balkan States and precedents set in this case have the potential to affect EU expansion to the East. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,644-655,,4,47,,Environ.

In this instance the conflict over Piran Bay in the Northern Adriatic Sea has led to conflict between the neighbouring States of Croatia and Slovenia. The lack of resolution of this conflict resulted in Croatia being delayed in its accession into the European Union (EU). The border dispute remains unresolved and will go to international arbitration in 2013. Yet it is unlikely that arbitration will provide a solution agreeable to all stakeholders. It is likely that residual feelings of injustice will remain, especially at local level. Analysis of the political context of the dispute and recognition of the biological importance of the region has led to opportunity to combine politics and biological conservation to establish an International Marine Peace Park (IMPP) as a potential mitigation measure to help resolve the conflict. This initiative aims to develop regional ownership over a shared marine space linking the local communities of Slovenia and Croatia that co-habit the adjacent Istrian peninsula. The area of the proposed Piran-Savudrija IMPP hosts numerous habitat types and species which are representative of the region and are of international and national conservation importance. The policies and opportunities associated with EU accession provide the potential political, economic and environmental frameworks to develop a regional agency or a bi-national steering committee for the management of the area. This could allow local communities to develop equitable management and restore good relations while preserving an important regionally representative marine area. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,112-119,,1,39,,Mar.

When applied to the legally ambiguous and interconnected marine environment this is magnified. The lack of clear guidance for transboundary marine conservation from the international conservation community exacerbates this problem, leaving individual initiatives to develop their own governance arrangements. Yet, well-managed transboundary marine protected areas (MPAs) have the potential to contribute significantly to global conservation aims. Conversely, in a period where there is increasing interest in marine resources and space from all sectors, the designation of MPAs can create or amplify a regional conflict. In some instances, states have used MPAs to extend rights over disputed marine resources, restrict the freedom of others and establish sovereignty over maritime space. Six case studies were taken from Europe, North Africa and the Middle East to illustrate how states have interpreted and utilized different legislative mechanisms to either come together or diverge over the governance of marine resources or maritime space. Each of the case studies illustrates how different actors have used the same legislative tools, but with different interpretations and applications, to justify their claims. It is clear that the role of science combined with a deeper engagement with stakeholders can play a critical role in tempering conflict between states. Where states are willing to cooperate, the absence of clear guidelines at the global level means that often ad hoc measures are put into place, with the international frameworks then playing catch up. Balancing different jurisdictional claims with the conservation of the marine environment, whilst considering the increasing special economic interests will become increasingly difficult. Developing a transboundary conservation tool, such as the simple conservation caveats found in the Barcelona Convention and Antarctic Convention, which allow for the establishment of intergovernmental cooperation without prejudicing any outstanding jurisdictional issue, would provide a framework for the development of individual transboundary MPAs. © Copyright © 2019 Mackelworth, Teff Seker, Vega Fernández, Marques, Alves, D’Anna, Fa, Goldborough, Kyriazi, Pita, Portman, Rumes, Warr and Holcer.",,,,,6,,Front.

However, substantial uncertainty remains regarding which species can benefit from MPAs. Meanwhile, area-focused protection targets have spurred recent and rapid gains in the creation of large MPAs, many of which carry vague objectives set by a diverse group of stakeholders with potentially different notions of “success.” Here, we capture and critically evaluate current views on the use of MPAs for shark and ray conservation. Through interviews with scientists, MPA managers, fisheries experts, conservation practitioners, advocates and policy experts (n = 53), we demonstrate a variety of perspectives regarding: (a) the effectiveness of MPAs as a tool for shark and ray conservation; (b) which factors influence the success of MPAs for sharks and rays; and (c) the desired outcomes of these MPAs. While MPAs created specifically for sharks and rays were viewed to be slightly more effective than regular MPAs as a tool for shark and ray conservation, both were generally considered insufficient in isolation. Despite greater emphasis on social success factors (e.g., local support) over biophysical success factors (e.g., size), biological outcomes (e.g., increased abundance) were prioritized over social outcomes (e.g., livelihood benefits). We argue that a stronger focus on achieving social outcomes can enhance the potential for MPAs to benefit sharks and rays. In revealing current thinking regarding the drivers and indicators of MPA success for sharks and rays, the results of this study can inform efforts to conserve and manage these species. © 2018 The Authors.

However, Aichi Biodiversity Target 11 contained a significant policy and reporting challenge, conceding that both protected areas (PAs) and ‘other effective area-based conservation measures’ (OEABCMs) could be used to meet national targets of protecting 17 and 10 % of terrestrial and marine areas, respectively. We report on a consensus-based approach used to (1) operationalize OEABCMs in the Canadian context and (2) develop a decision-screening tool to assess sites for inclusion in Canada’s Aichi Target 11 commitment. Participants in workshops determined that for OEABCMs to be effective, they must share a core set of traits with PAs, consistent with the intent of Target 11. (1) Criteria for inclusion of OEABCMs in the Target 11 commitment should be consistent with the overall intent of PAs, with the exception that they may be governed by regimes not previously recognized by reporting agencies. (2) These areas should have an expressed objective to conserve nature, be long-term, generate effective nature conservation outcomes, and have governance regimes that ensure effective management. A decision-screening tool was developed that can reduce the risk that areas with limited conservation value are included in national accounting.

Fishing is the primary source of diminished reef function globally, leading to widespread calls for additional marine reserves to recover fish biomass and restore key ecosystem functions. Yet there are no established baselines for determining when these conservation objectives have been met or whether alternative management strategies provide similar ecosystem benefits. Here we establish empirical conservation benchmarks and fish biomass recovery timelines against which coral reefs can be assessed and managed by studying the recovery potential of more than 800 coral reefs along an exploitation gradient. We show that resident reef fish biomass in the absence of fishing (B0) averages ?1,000 kg ha-1, and that the vast majority (83%) of fished reefs are missing more than half their expected biomass, with severe consequences for key ecosystem functions such as predation. Given protection from fishing, reef fish biomass has the potential to recover within 35 years on average and less than 60 years when heavily depleted. Notably, alternative fisheries restrictions are largely (64%) successful at maintaining biomass above 50% of B0, sustaining key functions such as herbivory. Our results demonstrate that crucial ecosystem functions can be maintained through a range of fisheries restrictions, allowing coral reef managers to develop recovery plans that meet conservation and livelihood objectives in areas where marine reserves are not socially or politically feasible solutions. ©2015 Macmillan Publishers Limited.

Nevertheless, knowledge synthesis on how types of local governance and decision-making modes may influence conservation outcomes of forest protected areas is lacking. This is mainly because the evidence on the joint relationships between governance regimes and ecological or social outcomes is generally missing and the knowledge comes from case studies. The research on this topic that use quasi-experimental designs aimed at inferring strong causal relationships is still methodologically in a development phase and the causal effects are hard to isolate. This map describes and maps the available qualitative and quantitative evidence from a large number and variety of sources, both peer-reviewed and grey literature, to answer the following question: What evidence exists on the impact of governance type on the conservation effectiveness of forest protected areas? This across-case systematic map reveals knowledge gaps, methodological limitations of the primary research and generates a list of specific research questions for future research. Methods: Evidence was collated from multiple sources, academic and grey literature. Using predefined inclusion criteria generated in a published protocol, we identified and screened articles for relevance at title, abstract and full text. Evidence was collated using English language search terms and applying no geographical limitations. Identified studies were critically appraised for internal validity (appropriateness of comparator, study design, objectiveness of measured outcomes) and mapped using a predefined coding scheme. We mapped studies according to geographical region, protected area characteristics, governance type, ecological and attitudinal outcomes, and comparator type. Results: The evidence base is limited in terms of size, quality and geographical area. We identified 57 relevant studies across 66 articles. The evidence base is geographically confined to Latin America and South Asia. Included studies are mostly of medium level of methodological detail, but frequently lack baseline, appropriate comparator or counterfactual to establish strong causal relationships between forest PAs with a particular governance type and a specific outcome. Moreover, most of the studies assess only one, primarily ecological, outcome and there were no studies measuring spill-over effects. Conclusions: The presented results call attention to the research gaps in the field of conservation governance, provide methodological guidelines and generate specific questions for future primary research. While conducting analysis of conservation intervention effects, research has to account for and report governance variables (e.g. how are decisions made and implemented). Methodological pluralism with both qualitative and quantitative approaches, more robust study designs and assessment of both social and ecological outcomes are needed to obtain a more complete understanding of the PA governance impacts. © 2015 Macura et al.",,,,1,4,,Environ.

Current governance modes of forest PAs are multilevel and complex, with a variety of actors, different levels of power sharing, various formal and informal rules and vested interests. However, there is no systematic information on how different local governance modes and day-to-day decision-making processes within forest PAs may cause a change in PA effectiveness in terms of producing desired conservation outcomes. In this review we aim to assess relative effectiveness of forest PAs worldwide with respect to different governance modes and linking them to the multiple outcomes in order to discern the effective governance strategies for biodiversity and forest conservation. We will evaluate effectiveness of forest protected areas by multiple outcome measures: 1) attitudes of local stakeholders towards forest protected area governance, 2) conservation-related behaviour of local stakeholders, 3) ecological parameters such as forest cover, biodiversity level, density, overall forest condition and/or health as well as 4) existence of local spillover effects defined as social, institutional and ecological effects in surrounding social-ecological systems. Methods: To gather empirical evidence on the effectiveness and outcomes of different governance arrangements of forest protected areas, we will search electronic databases, organizational websites, use web search engines and perform a bibliographic search. Articles will be filtered by title, abstract and full text. To facilitate understanding of predictors and conditions for effective PAs, both qualitative and quantitative data from the relevant studies will be extracted and integrated. Multivariate statistical analyses will be performed to give insights into association between different governance modes, their characteristics and PA effectiveness.

However, total catch and the potential impact of exploitation of these target organisms in Spermonde Archipelago, Indonesia, are not known. Therefore, the main objective of this study was to investigate the impact of the fishery on populations of A. ocellaris and its host anemones and how management could be improved. In order to obtain a comprehensive view on the marine ornamental fishery and trade of these species in Spermonde, this study also investigated the socioeconomics of the marine ornamental fishery and the catch records for A.ocellaris and it's host anemones. The study revealed that both, A.ocellaris and sea anemone densities were significantly lower at coral reefs with high exploitation (HE) than at reefs with low exploitation (LE). The total body length and group size of A.ocellaris was also significantly smaller at HE than at HL sites. The yearly amount traded by middlemen is estimated to 140000 specimens of A.ocellaris and 31000 anemones. The socioeconomic analysis showed that educational level of marine fishermen family members was low; most of them only finished elementary school. The household income analysis showed that marine ornamental fishery was not the major source of income, covering 13-43% of the expenses, with the exception of one studied island (84%). These findings revealed a considerable negative impact of marine ornamental fishery on the target populations and therefore, the implications for management strategies and conservation are discussed, including fish size restrictions for collectors, marine protected areas and regular monitoring of the amount of trade at middlemen. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,41-50,,,100,,Ocean Coast.

Ocean ecosystems provide an ideal system to test this question. Removal of fishing in marine reserves often reverses declines in predator densities and size. However, whether this leads to restoration of key functional characteristics of foodwebs, especially prey foraging behavior, is unclear. The question of whether restored and pristine foodwebs function similarly is nonetheless critically important for management and restoration efforts. We explored this question in light of one important determinant of ecosystem function and structure - herbivorous prey foraging behavior. We compared these responses for two functionally distinct herbivorous prey fishes (the damselfish Plectroglyphidodon dickii and the parrotfish Chlorurus sordidus) within pairs of coral reefs in pristine and restored ecosystems in two regions of these species' biogeographic ranges, allowing us to quantify the magnitude and temporal scale of this key ecosystem variable's recovery. We demonstrate that restoration of top predator abundances also restored prey foraging excursion behaviors to a condition closely resembling those of a pristine ecosystem. Increased understanding of behavioral aspects of ecosystem change will greatly improve our ability to predict the cascading consequences of conservation tools aimed at ecological restoration, such as marine reserves. © 2012 Madin et al.",,,,3,7,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,animal; Animals; Anthozoa; article; biogeography; biomass; Biomass; biomass production; Chlorurus sordidus; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; coral reef; Coral Reefs; ecosystem restoration; environmental impact; environmental protection; fish; Fishes; fishing; food chain; Food Chain; food web; foraging behavior; herbivory; methodology; nonhuman; ocean environment; Perciformes; Pisces; Plectroglyphidodon dickii; Pomacentridae; population abundance; predation; predation risk; predator prey interaction; Predatory Behavior; prediction; Scaridae; species comparison; species conservation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Examples from a variety of marine systems of exploitation-induced, top-down trophic forcing have led to a general view that human-induced predator perturbations can disrupt entire marine food webs, yet other studies that have found no such evidence provide a counterpoint. Though evidence continues to emerge, an unresolved debate exists regarding both the relative roles of top-down versus bottom-up forcing and the capacity of human exploitation to instigate top-down, community-level effects. Using time-series data for 104 reef communities spanning tropical to temperate Australia from 1992 to 2013, we aimed to quantify relationships among long-term trophic group population density trends, latitude, and exploitation status over a continental-scale biogeographic range. Specifically, we amalgamated two long-term monitoring databases of marine community dynamics to test for significant positive or negative trends in density of each of three key trophic levels (predators, herbivores, and algae) across the entire time series at each of the 104 locations. We found that trophic control tended toward bottom-up driven in tropical systems and top-down driven in temperate systems. Further, alternating long-term population trends across multiple trophic levels (a method of identifying trophic cascades), presumably due to top-down trophic forcing, occurred in roughly fifteen percent of locations where the prerequisite significant predator trends occurred. Such alternating trophic trends were significantly more likely to occur at locations with increasing predator densities over time. Within these locations, we found a marked latitudinal gradient in the prevalence of long-term, alternating trophic group trends, from rare in the tropics (<5% of cases) to relatively common in temperate areas (~45%). Lastly, the strongest trends in predator and algal density occurred in older no-take marine reserves; however, exploitation status did not affect the likelihood of alternating long-term trophic group trends occurring. Our data suggest that the type and degree of trophic forcing in this system are likely related to one or more covariates of latitude, and that ecosystem resiliency to top-down control does not universally vary in this system based on exploitation level. © 2020 The Authors.

Along its two coasts, it presents a great heterogeneity of ecosystems and social realities. Social factors, more than physical-natural factors, determine the success or failure of an MPA, so they must be urgently incorporated into all phases of MPA management. The objective of this work is to analyze the management of three marine protected areas, to establish improvements. These areas are Santa Rosa National Park, Marino Ballena National Park and Cahuita National Park. The methodology used assesses 26 indicators grouped into 4 key factotres: management body, planning subprocess, public participation, and implementation subprocess. The results of this evaluation are 5 possible scenarios. These scenarios have been termed (from the ideal situation to the least favourable): proactive (1), learning (2), interactive (3), centralized (4) and formal (5) management. The results of this study show that both Santa Rosa and Cahuita present a proactive scenario (1), with high citizen participation, although in practice the way the two MPAs are managed is very different. Marino Ballena, on the other hand, is in scenario 5 (formal), and a series of measures are presented that can move it towards scenario 2 (learning). In general, MPA management in Costa Rica tends to be adaptive, with high public participation, as determined by its public policies. However, the existence of a public policy favors but does not guarantee success in MPA management, as can be seen in the difference in results. Therefore, the periodic evaluation of its management, allowing for feedback, is essential. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,308,,J. Environ.

We collate and synthesize the available literature and data on marine fisheries in Mozambique; assess the status of the main fishery species/ stocks; give an overview of current management of the fishery, and discuss planning for fisheries resilience in the face of climate change predictions. In Mozambique there is a heavy reliance on marine fisheries. From a food security and local economy perspective, the critical sector is the artisanal fisheries which comprises over 90% of the total landings and provides food and livelihood for millions of people, particularly in the coastal zone. Regarding economic value and earning foreign currency, the most valuable industrial / semi-industrial fisheries are the shallow-water shrimp, the deep-water crustacean and the rocky bottom demersal. Current stock assessment for these sectors indicates that the core stock species are fully- or over-exploited. Limited data are available for the artisanal fishery, but it is likely that the same status applies to this sector. Globally, well-managed fisheries have been among the most resilient to climate change-overall, fisheries best practices confer ecological resilience by providing a portfolio of options to fishers and a buffer against losing target stock. Ideally, best practices include scientifically-informed catch limits, accountability measures, regional flexibility in policy practices, protection of essential fish habitat (Marine Protected Areas), and effective monitoring, control and surveillance. Mozambique has a relatively well-managed industrial/semi-industrial fishery. However, the artisanal fishery, due to its spatial scattering, multi-gear and multi-species nature, presents a huge challenge. Facing the future with climate change will require increased attention to reduce stressors to the social-ecological systems in which fisheries exist and persist.

However, factors affecting their success or failure in regard to promoting mammal population recovery are not well studied, particularly using quantitative approaches comparing across diverse taxa, biomes, and countries. To better understand how protected areas contribute to mammalian recovery, we conducted an analysis of 2706 mammal populations both inside and outside of protected areas worldwide. We calculated the annual percent change of mammal populations within and outside of terrestrial protected areas and examined the relationship between the percent change and a suite of human and natural characteristics including biome, region, International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) protected area category, IUCN Red List classification, and taxonomic order. Our results show that overall mammal populations inside and outside of protected areas are relatively stable. It appears that Threatened mammals are doing better inside of protected areas than outside, whereas the opposite is true for species of least concern and Near Threatened species. We also found significant population increases in protected areas classified as category III and significant population decreases in protected and unprotected areas throughout Oceania.

Here, we link prioritization methods with population models to explore the impact of integrating both representation and connectivity into conservation planning for species persistence. Using data on 288 Mediterranean fish species with varying conservation requirements, we show that: (1) considering both representation and connectivity objectives provides the best strategy for enhanced biodiversity persistence and (2) connectivity objectives were fundamental to enhancing persistence of small-ranged species, which are most in need of conservation, while the representation objective benefited only wide-ranging species. Our approach provides a more comprehensive appraisal of planning applications than approaches focusing on either representation or connectivity, and will hopefully contribute to build more effective reserve networks for the persistence of biodiversity. © 2018 The Authors.

Location: Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of Brazil, Southwest Atlantic Ocean. Methods: We developed a prioritization approach to protecting different habitat types, threatened species ranges and ecological connectivity, while also mitigating the impacts of multiple threats on biodiversity. When identifying priorities for conservation, we accounted for the co-occurrence of 24 human threats and the distribution of 161 marine habitats and 143 threatened species, as well as their associated vulnerabilities. Additionally, we compared our conservation priorities with MPAs proposed by local stakeholders. Results: We show that impacts to habitats and species are widespread and identify hot spots of cumulative impacts on inshore and offshore areas. Industrial fisheries, climate change and land-based activities were the most severe threats to biodiversity. The highest priorities were mostly found towards the coast due to the high cumulative impacts found in nearshore areas. As expected, our systematic approach showed a better performance on selecting priority sites when compared to the MPAs proposed by local stakeholders without a typical conservation planning exercise, increasing the existing coverage of MPAs by only 7.9%. However, we found that proposed MPAs still provide some opportunities to protect areas facing high levels of threats. Main conclusions: The study presents a blueprint of how to embrace a comprehensive ecological approach when identifying strategic priorities for conservation. We advocate protecting these crucial areas from degradation in emerging conservation efforts is key to maintain their biodiversity value. © 2020 The Authors.

We propose an MPA design approach that includes spatially-and temporally-varying sea-surface temperature (SST) data, integrating both observed (1985-2009) and projected (2010-2099) time-series. We derived indices of acute (time under reduced ecosystem function following short-term events) and chronic thermal stress (rate of warming) and combined them to delineate thermal-stress regimes. Coral reefs located on the Brazilian coast were used as a case study because they are considered a conservation priority in the southwestern Atlantic Ocean. We show that all coral reef areas in Brazil have experienced and are projected to continue to experience chronic warming, while acute events are expected to increase in frequency and intensity. We formulated quantitative conservation objectives for regimes of thermal stress. Based on these objectives, we then evaluated if/how they are achieved in existing Brazilian MPAs and identified priority areas where additional protection would reinforce resilience. Our results show that, although the current system of MPAs incorporates locations within some of our thermal-stress regimes, historical and future thermal refugia along the central coast are completely unprotected. Our approach is applicable to other marine ecosystems and adds to previous marine planning for climate change in two ways: (i) by demonstrating how to spatially configure MPAs that meet conservation objectives for warming disturbance using spatially-and temporally-explicit data; and (ii) by strategically allocating different forms of spatial management (MPA types) intended to mitigate warming impacts and also enhance future resistance to climate warming. © 2015 Bundela et al.

A gap analysis was conducted to evaluate how well marine protected areas (MPAs) in Brazil meet conservation objectives for representation, connectivity, and risk-spreading. The performance of the MPAs was evaluated by overlaying maps of ecosystem and management and calculating the size of no-take areas and the distances between them. All objectives were far from fully attained. Currently, the protection of the marine environment is poor, with less than 1.9% of Brazil's marine jurisdiction within MPAs and 0.14% within no-take areas. Also, only 23% of the ecosystems met the minimal number of replicates required by the risk-spreading objective. More positively, just over half (51%) of the no-take areas are a desirable distance apart.

The achievement of these broad conservation objectives will likely require large areas, and stretch limited funds for MPA implementation. We undertook a spatial prioritisation of Brazilian coral reefs that considered two types of conservation zones (i.e. no-take and multiple use areas) and integrated multiple conservation objectives into MPA planning, while assessing the potential impact of different sets of objectives on implementation costs. We devised objectives for biodiversity, connectivity, and resilience to global warming, determined the extent to which existing MPAs achieved them, and designed complementary zoning to achieve all objectives combined in expanded MPA systems. In doing so, we explored interactions between different sets of objectives, determined whether refinements to the existing spatial arrangement of MPAs were necessary, and tested the utility of existing MPAs by comparing their cost effectiveness with an MPA system designed from scratch. We found that MPAs in Brazil protect some aspects of coral reef biodiversity pattern (e.g. threatened fauna and ecosystem types) more effectively than connectivity or resilience to global warming. Expanding the existing MPA system was as cost-effective as designing one from scratch only when multiple objectives were considered and management costs were accounted for. Our approach provides a comprehensive assessment of the benefits of integrating multiple objectives in the initial stages of conservation planning, and yields insights for planners of MPAs tackling multiple objectives in other regions. © 2017 The Authors",,53-68,,,11,,Glob.

We investigated the extent to which connectivity and climate change have been considered in an ecologically meaningful way in marine conservation planning, as an attempt to help formulate conservation objectives for population persistence, over and above representation. Our review of the literature identified 115 marine planning studies that addressed connectivity and 47 that addressed the effects of climate change. Of the statements identified that related to goals and objectives, few were quantitative and justified by ecological evidence for either connectivity (13%) or climate change (8.9%). Most studies addressing connectivity focused on spatial design (e.g. size and spacing) of marine protected areas (MPAs) or clustering of planning units. Climate change recommendations were primarily based on features related to MPA placement (e.g. preferences for areas relatively resilient and resistant to climate change impacts). Quantitative methods to identify spatial or temporal dynamics of features related to connectivity and/or climate change (e.g. functionally well-connected or thermal refugia areas) were rare, and these accounted for the majority of ecologically justified statements. Given these shortcomings in the literature, we outline a framework for setting marine conservation planning objectives that describes six key approaches to more effectively integrate connectivity and climate change into conservation plans, aligning opportunities and minimizing trade-offs between both issues. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,207-221,,,170,,Biol.

We propose an innovative approach, combining biophysical modeling with a routinely-used tool for marine-reserve design (Marxan), to address both challenges by using ecologically-informed connectivity parameters. We showed how functional demographic connectivity for four candidate reef-associated species with varying dispersal abilities and a suite of connectivity metrics weighted by habitat quality can be used to set conservation objectives and inform MPA placement. Overall, the strength of dispersal barriers varied across modeled species and, also across species, we found a lack of spatial concordance of reefs that were high-quality sources, self-persistent, and stepping-stones. Including spatially-heterogeneous habitat quality made a considerable difference to connectivity patterns, significantly reducing the potential reproductive output from many reefs. We also found that caution is needed in combining connectivity data from modeled species into multi-species matrices, which do not perform reliably as surrogates for all connectivity metrics of individual species. We then showed that restricting the habitat available for conservation has an inequitable impact on different connectivity objectives and species, with greatest impact on betweenness centrality and long-distance dispersers. We used Brazilian coral reefs as a case study but our approach is applicable to both marine and terrestrial conservation planning, and offers a holistic way to design functionally-connected reserves to tackle the complex issues relevant to planning for persistence. ďż˝ 2015 The Authors",,649-664,,7,39,,Ecography,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,Anthozoa; BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION; Brazil; connectivity; conservation management; conservation planning; coral reef; dispersal; FISH; GRAPH-THEORY; habitat conservation; habitat quality; LANDSCAPE CONNECTIVITY; LARVAL DISPERSAL; marine park; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; OCEAN CURRENTS; POPULATION CONNECTIVITY; regional pattern; reserve design; RESERVE NETWORKS; SIDERASTREA-STELLATA,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Quantitative evaluations are necessary to assess the effectiveness of large-scale MPAs in enhancing ecosystem resilience, protecting biodiversity, and mitigating expanding threats. In this study, the effectiveness of large-scale MPAs, which are remotely managed and in offshore areas of the southwestern Atlantic Ocean (Brazil), was assessed concerning the occurrence of fishing activities within their boundaries before and after their implementation. Two sets of MPAs surrounding the Sao Pedro and Sao Paulo archipelago (SPSP) and the Trindade-Martin Vaz Islands (TMV) were established in early 2018, each comprising one no-take (i.e., fully-protected) and one multiple-use (i.e., partially-protected) area. For this assessment, I used satellite detections of Vessel Monitoring System transmission to quantify the fishing pressure (i.e., ""likely fishing days"") from commercial fisheries spanning 5 years (2015-2019). I then derived three metrics - fishing area, intensity, and density - to compare fishing activity within each MPA and year. The results showed that the effectiveness of the multiple-use MPAs was variable and contrasting, with SPSP experiencing a reduction in the fishing intensity and area and TMV experiencing an increase in both measures. An inverted pattern was evident for the no-take MPAs: while the one in the SPSP region experienced an increase in the fishing density after its establishment following a squeeze factor, the no-take MPA in the TMV region observed a decrease in the fishing density when comparing years before and after MPA implementation. These outputs can support managers in planning the implementation of further conservation strategies, such as monitoring and enforcement plans, and the analyses here also contribute to enhancing our understanding on the implications and challenges of adopting large-scale MPAs in the offshore environment as a high-profile strategy of ocean conservation.",,,,,8,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000697405000001,,,,,,,Brazil; commercial fishing; conservation assessment; fisheries; ISLAND; large marine protected areas; marine conservation; MPA; TARGETS; TROPHIC CASCADES; vessel monitoring system; vessel tracking,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This species is endangered by anthropogenic pressures on its habitats, climate change and the introduction and spread of non-native invasive crayfish species and their pathogens, with several documented declines occurring in a number of populations. Consequently, it is declared endangered and protected by international and national legislation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of the pan-European Natura 2000 network and national protected areas in conserving the white-clawed crayfish diversity in Croatia through a GIS-based approach that overlays a map of protected areas with species distribution data, also known as a gap analysis. The analysis revealed that 66% of the white-clawed crayfish populations are covered by protected areas (including Natura 2000 sites). Results of this study are useful for the evaluation of protected areas in the conservation of this key freshwater species, and for direct future management plans.

Although, tiger conservation is high priority globally and tigers are generally considered well studied, there has been no comprehensive global assessment of tiger-related publications aimed at identifying trends, assessing their status and pinpointing research gaps. Utilizing PRISMA framework, we conducted an extensive search across multiple databases, including Scopus, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect, to gather research related to Bengal tigers. Following thorough screening, we selected and evaluated 491 articles published between 2010 and 2022 to address these issues. The results show that publications on Bengal tigers have steadily on rise, with an average of 40 papers/year within this period. We found that most research was focused on the theme of tiger biology. Information on leopards and dholes was also frequently associated with tiger research. The highest number of lead authors originated from India (n = 192), where most research was also conducted. Authors from USA (n = 111) and UK (n = 38) were the next most productive, even though tigers are not found in or anywhere near these countries. We demonstrate that there is only limited amount of transboundary research, and that relatively little tiger research is conducted in the forests beyond protected areas. Similarly, very important but the least studied themes ?Poaching, Population and Socio-culture dimension should be the priority of future research efforts. Additionally, research on tourism, economic aspects and technological inputs are essential for the sustainable conservation of Bengal tigers. © The Author(s) 2024.",,1871-1894,,06-Jul,33,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,Apex predator; Big cat; database; endangered species; Felid; India; Large Carnivore; literature review; Literature review; mammal; predator; protected area; species conservation; survival; Threatened species; United Kingdom; United States,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Environmental assessments have identified biological invasions and other anthropogenic activities as major threats to the biodiversity in the CHAL. One of the rapidly spreading Invasive Alien Plant species (IAPs) in the CHAL is Parthenium hysterophorus L., a neotropical invasive weed of global significance. This study aimed to investigate the current and future projected suitable habitat of P. hysterophorus in the CHAL using MaxEnt modelling in three “Representative Concentration Pathways” (RCPs 2.6, 4.5 and 8.5) corresponding to different greenhouse gases emission trajectories for the year 2050 and 2070. A total of 288 species occurrence points, six bioclimatic variables - mean diurnal range, isothermality, annual precipitation, precipitation of driest month, precipitation seasonality, precipitation of driest quarter and two topographic variables (aspect and slope) were selected for MaxEnt modelling. Potential range shift in terms of increase or decline in the suitable habitat areas under the projected scenarios were calculated. Slope and annual precipitation were the most important variables that explained the current distribution of P. hysterophorus. Twenty percent of the total area of CHAL was predicted to be suitable habitat for the growth of P. hysterophorus in the current climatic condition. Highest gain in the suitable habitat of this noxious weed was found under RCP 4.5 scenario in 2050 and 2070, whereas there will be a loss in the suitable habitat under RCP 8.5 scenario in 2050 and 2070. Out of four physiographic regions present in CHAL, three regions - Siwalik, Middle Mountain and High Mountain have suitable habitat for P. hysterophorus under current climatic condition. The mountainous region is likely to be affected more than the Siwalik region by further spread of P. hysterophorus in the future under low (RCP 2.6) to medium (RCP 4.5) emission scenarios. The suitable habitat for this weed is likely to increase in the protected areas of mountain regions (Langtang National Park, Annapurna Conservation Area and Manaslu Conservation Area) in the future. The results have revealed a risk of spreading P. hysterophorus from present localities to non-invaded areas in the current and future climatic condition. Such risk needs to be considered by decision makers and resource managers while planning for effective management of this weed to reduce its ecological and economic impacts in the CHAL. © 2019, Science Press, Institute of Mountain Hazards and Environment, CAS and Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,2243-2256,,10,16,,J.

Migratory ungulates (hoofed mammals) are particularly influential because of their large body size, seasonal movement across vast distances, and ties to human society. Ungulate migrations are widely declining in the face of habitat alteration, and initiatives across the globe seek to conserve them. However, migratory herds can generate significant costs or disservices for landowners and communities, complicating management and conservation. We demonstrate how a comprehensive assessment of the ecosystem services and disservices (ESDs) provided by mobile wildlife can enable conservation policy that facilitates co-existence across multi-use landscapes. Our mixed-methods approach applies the widely recognized Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) ESD categories as a framework to combine formal scientific knowledge spanning multiple disciplines with experiential knowledge gathered from local stakeholders through interviews. We apply this methodology in the context of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE), which harbors long-distance migrations of six ungulate species that move between public protected areas and private working lands. We discuss how stakeholder knowledge corroborates or contradicts scientific literature and characterize stakeholder groups and their perspectives. We suggest that formal assessments of ESDs within their ecological and socioeconomic contexts could mobilize resources for conservation, increase returns on conservation spending, and support conflict resolution amongst groups seeking to manage wildlife for different objectives. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,283,,Biol.

This study aimed at contributing information on how abiotic and other factors influence different aspects of their behaviour displayed at the water surface. Several behaviours, i.e. foraging, travelling, foraging behind trawler, milling and socializing were observed during boat-based line transect surveys (2013–2016). The behaviours of individuals and groups were filmed or noted, and the abiotic factors of the habitat were registered at the same time. The number of “travelling” individuals was negatively correlated with surface water salinity (p value = 0.04) and positively correlated with turbidity (p value = 0.01). Fisher’s exact test also revealed that the behaviours of dolphin groups significantly differed with the ranges of several abiotic factors, i.e. foraging behind trawler with depth (p value = 0.001), travelling with surface water salinity (p value = 0.05), travelling and foraging behind trawler with turbidity (p value = 0.04, 0.01). The results for foraging behind trawler differed significantly between the groups with calves and those without calves (?2 test, p value = 0.04), where groups with calves were less likely to forage behind trawlers. Significant differences were observed among group sizes for travelling, milling and socializing (?2 test, p value < 0.05), with large groups (11–20 individuals) more frequently foraging, milling and socializing, compared to smaller ones. The current study is the first behavioural observation for Irrawaddy dolphins in Brunei Bay and these findings will help researchers, conservationists, local marine park managers and policy makers in developing effective conservation and management plans for the area. © 2018, Japan Ethological Society and Springer Japan KK, part of Springer Nature.",,169-180,,2,36,,J.

However, future-facing conservation concerns are often addressed using retrospective patterns that could be irrelevant. We recommend a novel landscape genomics framework for delineating future “Geminate Evolutionary Units” (GEUs) in a focal species: (1) identify loci under environmental selection, (2) model and map adaptive conservation units that may spawn future lineages, (3) forecast relative selection pressures on each future lineage, and (4) estimate their fitness and likelihood of persistence using geo-genomic simulations. Using this process, we delineated conservation units for the Yosemite toad (Anaxyrus canorus), a U.S. federally threatened species that is highly vulnerable to climate change. We used a genome-wide dataset, redundancy analysis, and Bayesian association methods to identify 24 candidate loci responding to climatic selection (R2 ranging from 0.09 to 0.52), after controlling for demographic structure. Candidate loci included genes such as MAP3K5, involved in cellular response to environmental change. We then forecasted future genomic response to climate change using the multivariate machine learning algorithm Gradient Forests. Based on all available evidence, we found three GEUs in Yosemite National Park, reflecting contrasting adaptive optima: YF-North (high winter snowpack with moderate summer rainfall), YF-East (low to moderate snowpack with high summer rainfall), and YF-Low-Elevation (low snowpack and rainfall). Simulations under the RCP 8.5 climate change scenario suggest that the species will decline by 29% over 90 years, but the highly diverse YF-East lineage will be least impacted for two reasons: (1) geographically it will be sheltered from the largest climatic selection pressures, and (2) its standing genetic diversity will promote a faster adaptive response. Our approach provides a comprehensive strategy for protecting imperiled non-model species with genomic data alone and has wide applicability to other declining species. © 2022 The Authors.

As goods and services from marine life continue to retrogress under the intense human exploitation and changing global environment, resilience could be supported through establishment of a functionally connected network of marine reserves across maritime jurisdictions. While the establishment of protected areas within the exclusive economic zones (EEZ) is expanding, mechanisms that would allow governments to conserve marine areas beyond national jurisdictions are currently inadequate. Consequently, implementing marine reserves is largely confined within territorial waters, high connectivity among contiguous maritime zones notwithstanding. As the global focus shifts toward achieving sustainable development goals for the oceans, there is a need for region-specific approaches to area-based biodiversity conservation that extends the scope of protection to areas in the high seas beyond the EEZ. Using simulations of functional connectivity and seafloor geomorphology, we present and apply in the Western Indian Ocean (WIO) region a contextual approach to regional marine conservation planning to inform a more effective regional marine conservation across maritime zones. © 2019 The Authors.

Specifically, we propose seven steps: (i) definition of the study area; (ii) selection of the species or habitats to be considered; (iii) definition of the planning units; (iv) measurement of the fishing effort; (v) definition of the conservation targets; (vi) review of the existing conservation areas; (vii) selection of additional NTMPAs. Moreover, we consider the potential impact of different conservation plans on existing fishing vessels. A working example is presented, focusing on a limited number of species and on a limited study area. This framework can be easily expanded to include datasets of different origin and to accommodate larger spatial scales.

In the terrestrial realm, resource depletion has classically been related to accessibility through road networks. In contrast, in the marine realm, the impact on living resources is often framed into the Malthusian theory of human density around ecosystems. Here, we develop a new framework to estimate the accessibility of global coral reefs using potential travel time from the nearest human settlement or market. We show that 58% of coral reefs are located < 30 min from the nearest human settlement. We use a case study from New Caledonia to demonstrate that travel time from the market is a strong predictor of fish biomass on coral reefs. We also highlight a relative deficit of protection on coral reef areas near people, with disproportional protection on reefs far from people. This suggests that conservation efforts are targeting low-conflict reefs or places that may already be receiving de facto protection due to their isolation.

Their population is under threat from habitat loss and fragmentation, illegal hunting, prey depletion, minefields, and conflicts with humans. Conservation efforts require accurate information on the current and future distribution patterns of this species. Therefore, this study aimed at establishing new baseline data based on the maximum entropy model (Maxent) combined with GIS techniques, field surveys (i.e., camera traps, kill reports, carcasses), and relevant environmental variables obtained from multiple sources. Modeling demonstrated that the current suitable habitat distribution of the species comprises 12.4 % (6318 km2) of the total area of the study area (50971 km2). Of these suitable areas, 0.8 % (431 km2) were categorized as high suitable, 3.8 % (1935 km2) as medium suitable, and 7.8 % (3953 km2) as low suitable. Overall, as demonstrated by modeling under the preselected environmental predictors, the suitable habitat distribution of the Persian Leopard would contract by 1.3 % (666 km2) and 1.7 % (843 km2) in 2070 under the RCP2.6 and RCP8.5 climate change scenarios, respectively. There would be a latitudinal shift, and the distance between the current and future centroids would be around 43.492 km. This spatial shift would be mostly towards the Zagros Mountains in the northeast of Iraq, alongside the Iran-Iraq border. The most important variables that contributed significantly to the distribution of the species across the study area included slope (47.3 %), temperature seasonality (bio4) (27.9 %), land cover (7.7 %), human population density (4.2 %), soil pH (2.7 %), temperature (Bio2) (2.7 %), and NDVI (1.8 %). These results could have great implications for establishing strategic protected areas not only for the target species of this study but for a wide range of plant communities and prey species (e.g., goats, wild boar) across the mountain ecosystem. © 2023 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,76,,J.

However, standard approaches for prioritizing locations for marine and terrestrial reserves neglect to consider connections between ecosystems. We demonstrate an integrated approach for coral reef conservation with the objective of prioritizing marine reserves close to catchments with high forest cover in order to facilitate ecological processes that rely upon intact land-sea protected area connections and minimize negative impact of land-based runoff on coral reefs. Our aims are to (1) develop and apply simple models of connections between ecosystems that require little data and (2) incorporate different types of connectivity models into spatial conservation prioritization. We compared how, if at all, the locations and attributes (e.g., costs) of priorities differ from an approach that ignores connections. We analyzed spatial prioritization plans that allow for no connectivity, adjacent connectivity in the sea, symmetric and asymmetric land-sea connectivity, and the combination of adjacent connectivity in the sea and asymmetric land-sea connectivity. The overall reserve system costs were similar for all scenarios. We discovered that integrated planning delivered substantially different spatial priorities compared to the approach that ignored connections. Only 11-40% of sites that were high priority for conservation were similar between scenarios with and without connectivity. Many coral reefs that were a high priority when we considered adjacent connectivity in the sea and ignored land-sea connectivity were assigned to low priorities when symmetric land-sea connectivity was included, and vice versa. Our approach can be applied to incorporate connections between ecosystems. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,35-42,,,165,,Biol.

However, spatial prioritization methods that can accommodate multiple zones are poorly understood in theory and application. It is typically assumed that management regulations across zones have differential levels of effectiveness (""zone effectiveness"") for biodiversity protection, but the influence of zone effectiveness on achieving conservation targets has not yet been explored. Here, we consider the zone effectiveness of three zones: permanent closure, partial protection, and open, for planning for the protection of five different marine habitats in the Vatu-i-Ra Seascape, Fiji. We explore the impact of differential zone effectiveness on the location and costs of conservation priorities. We assume that permanent closure zones are fully effective at protecting all habitats, open zones do not contribute towards the conservation targets and partial protection zones lie between these two extremes. We use four different estimates for zone effectiveness and three different estimates for zone cost of the partial protection zone. To enhance the practical utility of the approach, we also explore how much of each traditional fishing ground can remain open for fishing while still achieving conservation targets. Our results show that all of the high priority areas for permanent closure zones would not be a high priority when the zone effectiveness of the partial protection zone is equal to that of permanent closure zones. When differential zone effectiveness and costs are considered, the resulting marine protected area network consequently increases in size, with more area allocated to permanent closure zones to meet conservation targets. By distributing the loss of fishing opportunity equitably among local communities, we find that 84-88% of each traditional fishing ground can be left open while still meeting conservation targets. Finally, we summarize the steps for developing marine zoning that accounts for zone effectiveness. © 2013 Makino et al.",,,,11,8,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Animals; AREAS; article; biodiversity; Biodiversity; conservation biology; Conservation of Natural Resources; cost; COSTS; DESIGN; Ecosystem; environmental parameters; environmental planning; environmental protection; Fiji; Fisheries; FISHERIES; Fishes; fishing; geographic distribution; Geography; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; habitat; Humans; MANAGEMENT; Marine Biology; marine environment; MODEL; NETWORKS; PHILIPPINES; Population Dynamics; Reproducibility of Results; RESERVES; zone effectiveness,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

These changes may provide management opportunities for the long-term persistence of corals, but spatial prioritization rarely considers and anticipates these changes. We developed a spatio-temporal conservation plan that accommodates future coral range expansions based on projections of future SST. Our spatial planning approach is particularly useful in places with limited information about species distributions. Our aims were to (1) identify areas that consistently remain important for conservation through time and (2) determine the differences between priorities for conservation that account for potential coral range expansions and those that ignore them. Location: Japan. Methods: We developed spatial planning approaches using predicted coral habitat distributions for current conditions, the near future and the distant future. Using the Marxan conservation planning software, we designed conservation plans for scenarios that incorporated different types of spatial and temporal connections. Spatial connections are physical connections between adjacent and nearby areas, whereas temporal connections connect planning areas throughout time. Results: We found that protecting areas important for current and future coral habitat distributions is possible by prioritizing places that are consistently important through time. A spatially and temporally cohesive plan was accomplished with only a 14% increase in the overall reserve system costs, compared with reserve systems ignoring future coral habitat distributions. The attributes of priority areas (e.g. locations, outside boundary length and size) were substantially different when we varied the types of connections. Main conclusions: This study demonstrated that areas with highest conservation priority now will not necessarily be optimal when planning for future change, such as coral range expansions. Furthermore, we showed that incorporating spatio-temporal connections into spatial prioritization achieves objectives of simultaneously conserving corals in the current climate and facilitating their expansions as SST rises. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,859-871,,8,20,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,Anthozoa; BIODIVERSITY; climate change; Climate change; climate model; Climate model; coastal zone management; CONNECTIVITY; conservation; Conservation; conservation planning; coral reef; Japan; JAPAN; LIMITS; marine environment; marine protected area; Marine protected area; OCEAN ACIDIFICATION; population distribution; prioritization; PROTECTED AREAS; range expansion; Range expansion; REEF CORALS; RESERVE DESIGN; RESILIENCE; Scleractinia; sea surface temperature; sea-surface temperature; Sea-surface temperature; SEA-SURFACE TEMPERATURE; software; spatiotemporal analysis,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Using data from MPAs where changes have been detected due to ocean warming, can help inform discussion on how to increase temporal robustness in planning. Our aim was to determine how well fish assemblage patterns, used to develop a Habitat Classification System (HCS) as a coarse biodiversity surrogate in MPA planning, persisted over a 16 year timeframe in a warming region (east coast subtropics) of Australia. We analysed persistence/change in fish assemblage patterns in the Solitary Islands Marine Park (SIMP) where species shifts and habitat changes associated with ocean warming have been detected. Fish relative abundance was recorded at 12 sites over 16 years (2001–2017) using roving timed counts. Strong cross-shelf patterns were maintained over that 16 year period, which included some large-scale disturbances (destructive storms, 2016 mass coral bleaching event). Overall persistence in these broad assemblage patterns suggest a well-designed HCS can be a robust tool for coarsely representing biodiversity patterns in a warming world at decadal scales. ‘Tropicalisation’ was detected in some categories, suggesting additional planning strategies are needed within those and beyond decadal plans. © 2019",,152-163,,,232,,Biol.

The current zoning plan for the 870km 2 Solitary Islands Marine Park (SIMP), designed without algorithm tools, provides an example to compare the efficiency of zoning scenarios that include or ignore the existing zoning scheme and to assess the utility of habitat and/or biotic data for planning. Marxan was used to compare representation of habitat categories and a selection of fish species using 3 scenarios for 'no-take' sanctuary zones: 1) clean slate; 2) building on the existing sanctuary zones; and 3) current sanctuary zones (2002 zone plan). Three target levels were considered (10%, 20% and 30% representation of habitats and fish species in sanctuary zones). The use of habitat and fish data combined was compared with results obtained using each dataset separately. The clean-slate option was the most cost-efficient. Extending the existing sanctuary zones to achieve equivalent representation required more area and longer boundaries. For both of these scenarios, a large cross-shelf sanctuary zone at the widest part of SIMP was an important requirement for achieving representation. Neither habitat categories nor reef fish assemblages were fully represented in the current zoning plan. Fish and habitat features combined were more effective than habitat alone at selecting areas known to have high conservation values in the SIMP. The fish data in isolation were too spatially constrained for systematic planning at this scale. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,01-Dec,,,59,,Ocean Coast.

The Solitary Islands Marine Park (SIMP), covering 720 km2 of coastal waters in New South Wales, Australia, includes reef and unconsolidated habitats up to 17 km from shore and 75 m depth. When established in 1991, there was limited knowledge of biotic patterns, seafloor habitats and habitat-biotic relationships in the multiple-use SIMP, which constrained effective conservation planning. Subsequent mapping of sub-tidal habitats from aerial photography and single-beam acoustics improved habitat representation following rezoning in 2002 using Comprehensive, Adequate, Representative (CAR) principles and assisted site selection for diver surveys of fishes, a key surrogate taxon. In 2006, a swath acoustic mapping program commenced, which mapped ?35% of the MPA. This has produced high-resolution data on seafloor habitats, including depths >50 m. Bathymetry and backscatter layers have facilitated targeted deployment of Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUV) to test hypotheses about associations between fishes and physical habitat characteristics. Strong and persistent patterns in fish assemblage composition in relation to particular habitat characteristics provided the basis for a Habitat Classification Scheme (HCS) to be refined with the following categories: substratum (consolidated, unconsolidated), cross-shelf position (inshore, mid, offshore) and depth (shallow, intermediate, deep). Further refinement of unconsolidated substratum into gravel and sand habitats, which were mapped using backscatter layers, improves this classification. The HCS, which integrates habitat and biotic patterns, greatly increases the potential for effective spatial management planning in the SIMP when used with spatial planning tools (e.g. Marxan). © Coastal Education and Research Foundation, Inc. 2016.",,1292-1296,,,1,,J.

We compare length and abundance of commercially and recreationally targeted fishes (and bycatch) among management types within and adjacent to the Solitary Islands Marine Park (SIMP), Australia. Sampling was done on reefs between 25 and 40 m depth in ‘no-take’ and fished ‘partially protected’ areas within the marine park and fished areas outside the SIMP, using stereo- Baited Remote Underwater Videos (stereo-BRUVs) at eight, nine, thirteen and fourteen years after these ‘no take’ areas were established. Four species targeted by fishers: snapper Chrysophrys auratus, grey morwong Nemadactylus douglasi, pearl perch Glaucosoma scapulare, and venus-tuskfish Choerodon venustus, were more abundant and larger in ‘no take’ zones overall and showed an increase through time in ‘no take’ relative to both types of fished area. In contrast, there was no distinct pattern of four bycatch species increasing in abundance in ‘no-take’ areas. Abundances of fish in partially protected areas were similar to fished areas outside the MPA.

The goal is to obtain potential climatically suitable areas for each group (amphibians, reptiles, mammals and birds) under each proposed scenario and examine the usefulness of the current static design of protected areas. We propose a methodology to construct habitat suitability models, which are used to predict the expected species richness given each projected scenario of climate change. The relative change of the species richness within National and Natural Parks, remainder of Natura (2000) network and unprotected areas is compared. The results of the study show a broad effect of climate change on the species richness distribution. In general, there is a loss of specific richness and a restricted availability of suitable areas. The protected areas located in higher altitudes maintain the best conditions for the survival of the taxa considered in the proposed climate change scenarios. © 2020 The Author(s)",,,,,23,,Glob.

Despite their importance, these ecosystems are under threat because of trawling and exploration and exploitation of hydrocarbons. According to the gap analysis conducted by the Institute of Marine and Coastal Research of Colombia (Invemar), during the first decade of the XXI century in Colombia, less than 2% of the known deep coral coverage was found under some category of conservation inside the System of National Natural Parks. In 2013, the Corales de Profundidad National Natural Park was established, and it is located in the Colombian Caribbean Sea, next to the departments of Córdoba, Sucre and Bolivar, close to the Corales del Rosario and San Bernardo National Natural Park. The biological knowledge of these ecosystems is new, as well as the importance of these ecosystems expressed in economic and social terms. Carrying out an exercise that captures the economic value of ecosystem services provided by deep-sea corals in the new national park becomes relevant. The objective of this study is to make a first approach to estimate this value. Given the difficulty of accessing these ecosystems, the benefits provided by them are not directly tangible and are not revealed through markets. In fact, the provided services are related to benefits not associated with direct use (non-use values, such as option and existence values, and indirect use values). Stated preference methods are used to estimate the economic value associated with this type of services; with these methods the strategy is to create a hypothetical scenario and ask respondents to reveal their willingness to pay for the feasibility of these conservation scenarios. The contingent valuation method is the chosen one, whose main instrument for information collection is household surveys. The average estimated willingness to pay per household is around US$58 (110000 COP using the average exchange rate for the third quarter of 2014, when data was collected, COP/USD: 1878) per year. Based on these results, it is possible to calculate the willingness to pay for the entire population of the study, Bogotá citizens. This value is around US$95 million annually (178 billion COP per year). When this value is compared with the budget assigned to this national park, the latter represents less than 1% of the economic value associated with the flow of benefits generated by the park. The lack of resources assigned to this area becomes evident as well as the need to identify and implement alternative funding sources to ensure financial sustainability of the park.",,99-121,,1,45,,Bol.

To date, multi physicochemical parameters have not been examined on a large scale. To fill this knowledge gap, the present study aimed to explore the seasonal and spatial variability of water quality parameters of the bay. The results showed that except for depth and transparency, there are significant variations in most parameters across the four seasons. The patterns of these changes in the bay vary, as evidenced by a comparison of the distribution maps of the various factors throughout the year. Notably, alkalinity declined from east to west, reaching its highest levels at important entry points such as the Qarasu River, Bandar-Gaz, and the pier. TDS, on the other hand, increased westward, reaching its highest concentration in the shallow western regions. Maximum depth (310 cm) and transparency (250 cm) were observed in the central bay. While the pH was higher in deeper areas, the distribution of PO4 was more uniform. With lower levels in the east (salinity = 0.40 ‰) and higher levels in the west (salinity = 28.9 ‰), the salinity showed a coherent gradient. Agricultural land use in the basin of the bay and fluxes of nutrients and sediments of the rivers entering the bay has significant contribution to the bay pollution situation. These results will serve as a guide for improving our understanding of the Gorgan Bay ecosystem. They also have implications for informed conservation and management plans adapted to the specifics of this special region within the Caspian Sea. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,201,,Mar. Pollut.

An increasing number of studies aim to examine the social impacts of PAs on aspects of people?s well-being, such as, quality of life, livelihoods, and connectedness to nature. Despite the increase in literature on this topic, there are still few studies that explore possible robust methodological approaches to capturing and assessing the spatial distribution of impacts in a PA. This study aims to contribute to this research gap by comparing Bayesian spatial regression models that explore links between perceived social impacts and the relative location of local residents and communities in a PA. We use primary data collected from 227 individuals, via structured questionnaires, living in or near the Peak District National Park, United Kingdom. By comparing different models we were able to show that the location of respondents influences their perception of social impacts and that neighboring communities within the national park can have similar perceptions regarding social impacts. Simulation based on existing data using the Bootstrap sub-sampling was also conducted to validate the association between social impacts and mutual proximity of residents. Our findings suggest that this type of data is better treated, in terms of accounting for potential spatial effects, using models that allow for proximity effects to be stronger between people living nearby, e.g. between neighbors in the same community and have minimum effects otherwise. Understanding the spatial clustering of perceived social impacts in and around PA, is key to understanding their causes and to managing and mitigating them. Our findings highlight therefore the need to develop new methodological approaches to assessing and predicting accurately the spatial distribution of social impacts when designating PAs. The findings in this paper will assist practitioners in this regard by proposing approaches to the consideration of the distribution of social impacts when designing the boundaries of PAs alongside typical ecological and socio-economic criteria. © 2024 the Author(s), licensee AIMS Press.",,3816-3837,,3,21,,Math.

Research must gauge the effectiveness of MPA implementation in promoting fisheries recovery. This study investigated the effectiveness of enforcement in the Sagay Marine Reserve (SMR), western Philippines, in promoting the recovery of abalone stock. Enforcement of protection in the SMR is accomplished through the bantay-dagat (sea patrol), which utilizes reef watchtowers to deter illegal activities. The abalone populations in two protected reefs (well-enforced protection) and two open access reefs (poorly enforced protection) in the SMR were surveyed using 50m x 2m belt transects. Abalone density was significantly greater, and abalone were larger, on protected than on unprotected reefs. However, we found that recruitment appeared limited at all sites, and that abalone tended to be sexually mature at small sizes. This may indicate that the population has been near a critical threshold, that recent climatic events may have suppressed recovery rates, and/or that enforcement and rule compliance was low and with continued poaching. Nevertheless, the results of this study agree with findings of other research that a properly enforced no-take MPA can promote recovery of local stocks. Moreover, the investment of funds by the local government in monitoring activities (in this case, watchtowers) is necessary to achieve MPA objectives. © 2003 Elsevier B.V.

Here, we aimed to study the natural variability of major components of the pelagic ecosystem along a subantarctic zonal transect (?55° S) from coastal waters of the Beagle Channel to the open sea over the Marine Protected Area (MPA) Namuncurá-Burdwood Bank. We used a multi-year dataset, unprecedented for this region, comprising six oceanographic surveys from 2014 to 2018. The dataset includes water temperature, salinity, nitrogen and phosphate concentrations, and abundances for heterotrophic and autotrophic picoplankton and viral populations. We explored three dimensions of the natural variability of the ecosystem: regional (between marine sectors, Coast-Shelf versus Burdwood Bank), local (within marine sectors at each campaign), and temporal (between campaigns, which comprised inter- and intra-annual variability). Biological components including viruses accounted for a greater variability compared with physicochemical parameters. Coast-shelf waters and open sea differed in the temporal variability of the phytoplankton community and most of the environmental parameters, whereas the variability of heterotrophic bacteria was similar between regions. Local effects (i.e., effects at a small spatial scale) prevailed as the main source of variability for all groups of the picoplankton (including viruses), and regional effects for the environmental components. Temporal effects on natural variability were relatively high and even among components with minima for picoeukaryotes and salinity. The observed impacts of climate change are expected to differ among ecosystem components and dimensions, with some impacts being more noticeable in the frequency of extreme events, while others in the mean. Thus, understanding these baseline behaviors could improve management and monitoring strategies. © 2022 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,238,,J. Mar.

Objectives To reconstruct the temporal trends of the most reported C. rubrum population parameters in the Northwestern Mediterranean Sea and to determine the changes in total carbon sequestration by this species. Data sources Quantitative and qualitative, academic and grey documents were collected from scientific web browsers, scientific libraries, and requests to scientists. Study eligibility criteria Documents with original information of basal diameter, height and/or weight per colony, with a depth limit of 60 m in the Catalan and Ligurian Seas were analyzed. Synthesis methods We calculated yearly average values of C. rubrum biometric parameters, as well as estimated total weight, carbon flux, and carbon fixation in the structures of C. rubrum's colonies. Results In both study areas, the values of the selected morphometric parameters for C. rubrum decreased until the 1990s, then increased from the 2000s, with average values surpassing the levels of the 1960s (Ligurian Sea) or reaching levels slightly lower than those of the 1980s (Catalan Sea). The difference in carbon sequestered between the oldest (1960s: Ligurian Sea; 1970s: Catalan Sea) and the lowest (1990s) biomass value of colonies is nearly double. Limitations Quantitative data previous to the 1990s are very limited. Information on recent recovery trends in C. rubrum parameters is concentrated in a few areas and biased towards colonies in marine protected areas, with scarce quantitative information from colonies in other areas. Conclusions The halt in the C. rubrum decreasing trend coincided with the exhaustion of tree-like colonies and the first recovery response due to effective protection measures in some areas. Nevertheless, C. rubrum climate change mitigation capacity through carbon sequestration can be drastically reduced from its potential in only a few decades. © 2019 Mallo et al.

We studied perception of ecosystem services, impacts and threats of CMHs by locals and tourists (n = 624) of Cap de Creus MPA (NW Mediterranean Sea). Overall, we found that perceptions of tourists and locals are similar. Respondents perceived that CMHs provide valuable regulating services, and they assigned less value to cultural services. Locals valued the food provision ecosystem service of CMHs significantly more than tourists, probably because of the historical importance of fisheries for subsistence. Respondents ranked marine pollution of inland origin, climate change and people’s behaviour towards nature as the most impactful and threatening to CMHs, and invasive marine species as the least. Respondents also perceived that climate change impacts would increase soon, whilst the impact of people’s behaviour towards nature would decrease. Tourists perceived mass tourism as significantly more impactful and threatening to CMHs than locals did. Overall, our study shows that conservation of CMHs is highly valued, so more effort needs to be directed toward this goal. © 2022, The Author(s).",,,,2,22,,Reg. Environ.

At the start of the 21st century, the Canadian marine zone is the subject of much concern as a result of a variety of anthropogenic threats. The Canadian Wildlife Service (CWS) is the federal agency responsible for the conservation of migratory bird populations and their habitats in Canada. As part of its mandate, CWS has produced this report identifying key marine habitat sites for migratory birds in Nunavut and the Northwest Territories. This report serves as a statement of CWS interest in marine areas where special wildlife conservation measures may be required, and it is offered as a guide to the conservation efforts of other agencies with interests in Nunavut and the Northwest Territories. Approximately 10 million pairs of breeding marine birds use the marine areas in Nunavut and the Northwest Territories annually for breeding, feeding, migration, moulting, or wintering. In addition to breeding birds, hundreds of thousands of nonbreeding birds also inhabit these waters. We have defined a key marine habitat site as an area that upports at least 1% of the Canadian population of at least one migratory bird species, following the protocols used previously in Canada and internationally to identify important bird habitats. Marine habitat sites include coastline, open sea, and polynya-shore lead habitats, although the focus of this report is on the last two categories. The sites identified in this report are essential to the welfare of many migratory birds in Canada. As most of these species migrate across international boundaries, many of these sites are also of international importance. Data for the identification of sites were drawn from existing published and unpublished reports and from personal communications. Portions of some sites listed here were identified in an earlier report that focused on terrestrial areas (CWS Occasional Paper No. 71), where the value of the terrestrial site was integrally linked to the marine component. Currently, CWS manages 18 migratory bird sanctuaries and national wildlife areas in Nunavut and the Northwest Territories. Most of these were set up to protect terrestrial or coastal wildlife resources; only one was set up specifically to protect a large marine zone for seabirds, that being the Nirjutiqavvik (Coburg Island) National Wildlife Area. Nonetheless, the Arctic migratory bird sanctuaries and national wildlife areas contain about 15 000 km2 of marine habitat within their boundaries, providing some protection for selected marine bird colonies. Many key marine habitat sites are not included in these established sites, however. In this report, we have identified 34 key marine habitat sites, 20 of which are in the High Arctic, 13 in the Low Arctic, and 1 in the Boreal oceanographic zones. The total marine area (excluding islands) included in these sites is 161 000 km2. The largest site is Amundsen Gulf and the Cape Bathurst Polynya, which includes 30 700 km2 of marine waters, while the smallest site is East Bay, which encompasses 274 km2. We have also identified those sites where there are known threats, such as cruise ship tourism or potential oil spill concerns. Site identification is the first step in getting key marine habitats for migratory birds recognized and protected at some level. We emphasize that not all of the sites listed in this report are targeted to become protected areas. The first goal will be recognition and incorporation of these sites in land use planning by the Nunavut Planning Commission and in planning documents of other agencies that regulate activities in the Arctic marine environment. Some sites will become national or marine wildlife areas, with community support, and the information provided here will help in the establishment of marine protected areas or marine conservation areas. The identification of key marine habitat sites is a dynamic process, and the importance of each site needs to be reevaluated on a regular basis. As bird populations fluctuate or sea ice conditions change, the value of some sites will change and new sites will be discovered. This report also outlines some of the steps necessary to continue to move the key marine habitat sites process forward, including additional monitoring of some Arctic seabird colonies, research on species that have received little attention in Arctic Canada, renewed offshore survey efforts, and increased collaboration with communities and other partners in marine issues. A review of this report should be conducted each decade to update the status of various sites and list any new ones that have been discovered.",,Mar-85,,109,,,Occas. Pap. Can. Wildl.

In Mexico, only a minimal proportion of TDF is conserved in protected areas, typically surrounded by human-modified landscapes. Habitat modification can impact gene flow, affecting the populations’ genetic structure, and ultimately, the long-term persistence of natural populations. Objectives: We examined the influence of landscape features on the genetic connectivity of Thryophilus sinaloa, a common and highly territorial TDF-associated bird species. We conducted our study in a Mexican landscape along the Pacific coast characterized by a protected area surrounded by a heterogenous human-modified landscape. Methods: We genotyped 90 individuals from 20 localities at 24,549 SNPs derived from 3RADseq and de novo assembling techniques to examine the relationship between population genetic patterns and landscape features using a resistance surface optimization framework. Results: Populations were genetically structured in two groups across the landscape. An open-areas resistance surface, along with geographic distance, reduced genetic connectivity. This finding suggests that protected areas are partially isolated from TDF fragments and other non-protected areas. Conclusions: Our research highlights the impact of TDF landscape modification by human-induced activities on the genetic connectivity of a common bird. Our study reveals that the only TDF reserve in the region is mostly disconnected from other remnants of non-protected areas of continuous TDF. The increasing deterioration of the habitat could eventually cause a decrease in genetic diversity and effective population size. Moreover, genetic differentiation could be enhanced as habitat patches are more isolated, increasing the likelihood of local extinctions. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,3249-3268,,12,38,,Landsc.

Clearcutting has been applied to progressively remove infected maritime pine, concurrent with planting of holm oak (Quercus ilex) seedlings. Establishment of holm oak regeneration has, however, been severely constrained by fallow deer (Dama dama) browsing pressure. We hypothesized that the ability of planted holm oak to grow above the browse line was closely correlated with protective cover provided by natural regeneration. This study was carried out in a coastal protected area in central Italy, where overall performance of planted holm oak was assessed under browsing pressure in relation to the relative distance of seedlings to surrounding vegetation. To interpret the results, four categories of holm oak were identified: (i) dead plants, (ii) sprouts from stump, (iii) repeatedly browsed plants without growth, and (iv) plants that were able to develop at least one tall shoot safe from browsing. The occurrence of the latter was positively related to increasing canopy cover and plant height of surrounding vegetation, especially maritime pine. Density, height, canopy cover, and crown radius of maritime pine, as well as its relative distance from holm oak all promoted the survival and growth of target plants. Complete protection around holm oak was not required for facilitation, but the presence of crown and branches occupying the space above the target plants was crucial. Maritime pine saplings primarily served as a mechanical barrier to browsing and thereby favored the development of holm oak shoots. Site-specific, long-term monitoring studies on competition from and facilitation by surrounding vegetation are required, before implementing under-planting strategies. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.",,356-364,,,432,,For.

They constitute a total of 83 coastal forests in Tanzania and are habitats for several endemic and rare species of plants and animals. With an at ray of stakeholders around Pugu and Kazimzumbwi forests, differences in priorities by different stakeholders are inevitable. In the process of meeting these priorities, conflicts between stakeholders do occur. This research was conducted in five villages adjacent to Pugu and Kazimzumbwi forest reserves. The main objective of this study was to examine the nature, causes of conflicts and management approaches in Pugu and Kazimzumbwi forest reserves. Specifically, the study intended to: (i) examine the nature, types and causes of forest resource-use conflicts (ii) assess status of forest cover changes from 1991 to 2000 and its linkage to resource conflicts (iii) identify and assess existing forest management approaches in the study area and (iv) identify existing conflict management strategies in the study area. Household questionnaires, participatory rapid appraisal and participant observation were used to collect data. Geographical Information System (GIS) were used to analyze the satellite images to determine the land cover/uses changes between 1991 and 2000 and linking them with resource-use conflicts. The study has shown that, there are resource-use conflicts within the communities living adjacent to the protected area of Pugu and Kazimzumbwi forests. Findings from this study showed that, these conflicts, have been exacerbated by diversity of ethnic groups in the study area which was significant at (P < 0.10). Expansion of farm sizes of the individual households was significant (P < 0.10) cause for resource-use conflicts within Pugu and Kazimzumbwi forested area. The mode of land acquisition was through purchases, which also was significant cause (P < 0.10) of resource conflicts in the area. In the course of these factors and other socio-economic factors, different land cover/uses have also been changing between 0.7% to 50% and specifically the forests and woodland in the Pugu and Kazimzumbwi forests have been degraded at the rate of 6.49% to 30.5%, respectively. The study has provided a basis for detailed account of a long-term initiative to reduce and manage conflict between the local interests of resource-poor households and the nation/global interests of biodiversity conservation around the two critical ecosystems of Pugu and Kazimzumbwi coastal forests. The study concludes by calling for re-thinking on the best approaches to accommodate these factors for ensuring sustainable management of these resources.",,149-174,,,19,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000245544500018,,,,,,,forest cover change; forest management approaches; geographic information system; HOTSPOTS; MIOMBO WOODLAND; resource-use conflicts,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, the benefits of countermeasures on farmland to coastal ecosystem conservation remain unclear, thus hampering effective agricultural pollution management. To address this, we quantified the economic value of the countermeasures on farmland for coastal ecosystem conservation by using a choice experiment. We also analysed the heterogeneity of the value on the basis of the type of conserved coastal ecosystem service: fishery resources, biodiversity, recreational opportunity, and aesthetic landscape. We found that the value of a 1 % point reduction in red-soil runoff depended on the conservation-targeted coastal ecosystem services and the areas where the measures were implemented. Thus, the reduction rate of red-soil runoff influenced the prioritization of countermeasure targets and locations. In particular, the conservation of coastal biodiversity by reducing red-soil runoff was more appreciated than that of fishery resources when the soil runoff reduction rate exceeded 10 %. Similarly, a runoff reduction program in national parks can provide more social benefits than that in non-protected areas when the reduction rate exceeds 30 %. Our findings highlight the importance of considering land–sea interactions during policy development and message-framing in enhancing public support. © 2025 The Authors",,,,,230,,Ecol.

The European Union (EU) has set ambitious goals to combat land artificialisation, including achieving “no net land take” by 2050. It also plans to expand its network of protected areas, including the Natura 2000 (N2K) sites, to 30 % of its area by 2030. However, studies have shown that land artificialisation continues to occur even within N2K sites. It has not yet been examined, though, which habitats are most affected. To address this gap, we used a high-resolution spatial layer of the EU's habitats and layers showing impervious surfaces across the EU to quantify and compare the current levels of artificial surfaces within each habitat inside and outside N2K sites. We also compared the changes in impervious surfaces between 2012 and 2015 and 2015–2018. We found that the total extent of impervious surfaces, and their rates of change, were lower within the N2K sites for all habitats examined. However, patterns varied: coastal habitats, grasslands, and agricultural habitats had higher levels of artificial surfaces than others, even within N2K sites. Our findings indicate that although the planned expansion of the N2K network can help mitigate the artificialisation of threatened habitats, N2K sites do not entirely halt land conversion. Member States should further improve the management effectiveness of NK2 sites and promote financial and policy instruments addressing land artificialisation, e.g., through land recycling, to safeguard vulnerable habitats and achieve the EU's conservation objectives. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,293,,Biol.

With an estimated annual budget of €20 billion, the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 has set an ambitious goal of classifying 30% of its land and sea territory as Protected Areas and ensuring no deterioration in conservation trends and the status of protected species. We analysed LIFE projects focused on animals from 1992 to 2018 and found that investment in vertebrates was six times higher than that for invertebrates (€970 versus €150 million), with birds and mammals alone accounting for 72% of species and 75% of the total budget. In relative terms, investment per species towards vertebrates has been 468 times higher than that for invertebrates. Using a trait-based approach, we show that conservation effort is primarily explained by species' popularity rather than extinction risk or body size.

Often, such targets are merely met on “paper” and lack the political or managerial resources to produce positive conservation outcomes. Here, we apply the MPA Guide – a framework for assessing the quantity and quality of marine protected areas – to Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), two U.S. territories in the Western Pacific. We reviewed the enabling legislation and applicable management documents for all MPAs (n=18). We found that all but three (3) MPAs in the Mariana Islands are actively managed, and these areas are either fully or highly protected – the highest tier of the MPA Guide. Lightly protected areas are associated with high use/high-density tourism activities. Total area protected varies at the jurisdictional scale: 0.83% of Guam’s territorial waters (out to 12 nm) and 23.73% of EEZ under some spatial management; CNMI has 20.39% of territorial waters and 25.91% of EEZ in MPAs.

Nine different alternatives of this approach are employed on Sentinel-2 (S2) Level-2A images (2016-2019). The best fit alternative was derived by the validation against local and on-site registered attributes. To overcome unfavourable atmospheric conditions, Sentinel-1 (S1) images were examined in tandem with derived S2 inundation maps (S2m), using the best fit alternative. Two S2m, one preceding and one following a target S1 image, were used to train random forest models (per pixel) to be applied to the target S1 image and derive the respective inundation map (S1m). S1m was validated against a S2m for the same date; not previously used in the training process. Classification performance reached k [0.77-0.94] and overall accuracy [88.05-97.16%] for the S2m. The evaluation of S1m showed k of 0.99 and overall accuracy between 99.71-99.88%.

Marine protected areas, specifically no-take areas (NTAs) where all extractive uses are prohibited, are now widely-used to promote sustainable fisheries and protect marine biodiversity. However, no-take areas have had mixed success, and the governance structures that determine success are not well understood. The institutional, social, economic, and political context of the no-take areas and the response of resource users to their establishment are rarely considered in establishing marine reserves. In developing countries with high levels of poverty and low enforcement capacity, harvest practices rarely adhere to formal laws and regulations. As a consequence, many no-take areas have become “paper parks” that fail to provide ecological and social benefits. In this paper, we use the Coupled-Infrastructure System (CIS) framework to explore the problem of “paper parks” by assessing stakeholder perceptions, preferences, and levels of knowledge on NTAs within a regional system of three no-take areas in the Gulf of California, Mexico. Using structured interviews, we found differences in perceptions about the use of NTAs for conservation of biodiversity and management of fisheries, misconceptions about the location of current NTAs, and problems of non-compliance behavior. We identify a weak relationship between the perception of NTAs by the resource users and the way in which current NTA tools operate in Mexico. Consequently, anticipated success based on the mere presence of the NTA and its regulations is hindered by how the resource users interact with the resource itself, but more importantly by what leads up to this hindrance. A focus on this weakness in the CIS system is critical to achieving NTA objectives. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,181-192,,,162,,Ocean Coast.

Sections of these protected areas are often transfrontier conservation complexes, whose objective is to facilitate historic patterns of animal dispersal. Knowledge of megafauna home ranges, habitat use, and dispersal in key PAs can inform vital decision-making for elephant conservation. Location data were derived from satellite collars fitted on 26 savannah elephants from 2016 to 2022 in Gonarezhou National Park, Zimbabwe to investigate seasonal and sex differences in elephants’ home range sizes, home range overlap, and their interaction with environmental variables. Differences in the size of home ranges between sexes in all seasons were not significant. Both male and female elephants had high site fidelity, retaining 60% of their home ranges between consecutive seasons. Only females, possibly tracking forage quality, showed reduced overlap of home ranges between the hot dry and hot wet seasons. Male elephants preferred vegetation types dominated by Colophospermum mopane, whereas females used more diverse upland vegetation types, showing a preference for higher elevations than males over all seasons. In areas where elephant movement is restricted by fences and human settlements, continuous monitoring of elephant space use is recommended, and research dynamics should be taken into account when developing site-specific management plans. © 2024, IUCN - International Union for the Conservation of Nature.

We analyse the main EU directives that deal with marine conservation, notably the Habitats and Birds directives, the Water Framework Directive, and the Marine Strategy Framework Directive, as they are the primary instruments that can guide the development of the observatory while strengthening cooperation at the basin scale. We bring out the synergies and discrepancies among these legal instruments and build on them ECOAdS as a monitoring platform that may respond and contribute to their requirements, boosting the synergies and overcoming the weaknesses.

Furthermore, by embracing a holistic vision, it aims to incorporate ecological processes and socio-ecological aspects, considering the benefits of public engagement through citizen science, and of the ecosystem services approach for policies’ implementation. The study stems from the Ecological Observing System of the Adriatic Sea (ECOAdS), which was developed in the framework of the Interreg Italy-Croatia project ECOSS, using as exemplary monitoring test cases two relevant conservation targets for Natura 2000 sites of the Adriatic Sea, the common bottlenose dolphin and seagrass meadows. We test the potential of this approach in guiding the prioritization of monitoring variables under ecosystem-based criteria, and provide insights into the benefits delivered by an integrated system of observatories’ networks and monitoring frameworks to support marine conservation at both local and regional scales. The proposed approach can be transferred to other contexts and scales to help build a common knowledge and monitoring framework for conservation and management strategies, saving costs by relying on available resources and on consolidated and long-lasting approaches that might converge towards global initiatives.

As such, this practice can be used in ecosystem-based Marine Spatial Planning (MSP). MSP is recognized as an opportunity to achieve socio-economic and ecological goals simultaneously, to suggest solutions for sustainable management of marine environment and its resources. In this study, we propose an operational approach that includes novel spatial analysis in the marine field to quantify and map supporting ecosystem services. Such approach spans the 3D-dimension of the marine environment, considering all marine domains (sea surface, water column, seabed) separately. Our approach is focused on mapping supporting ES of the Adriatic Sea, to grant their preservation in order to guarantee the delivery of all other ES. Supporting ES provision in the Adriatic was quantified through the use of indicators that denote ES delivery and that are specifically related to the three marine domains. We identified areas of elevated provisioning levels of multiple supporting ES in the Adriatic, which is hypothesized to be priority areas of conservation. Our results confirm the importance of explicitly including the pelagic domain in planning and conservation processes. Areas that provide the lowest levels of supporting ES delivery were also mapped, to indicate possible ‘sacrificial areas’ for industrial or intensive use. The spatial coincidence of the determined hotspots areas of ES delivery associated with particular marine areas that are and are not under conservation regimes was analysed. This approach led us to test the applicability of the method for identifying marine areas for conservation purposes. Our methodological approach aims at producing relevant scientific knowledge for prioritizing marine conservation and sustainable management actions, to be used in MSP and marine management. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,821-837,,,101,,Ecol.

Despite its growing popularity and threats to natural environments, surfing's economic and social impacts remain sparsely documented. This study provides a nationwide assessment of surfing's impact on Australia's economy and participants' wellbeing, using an online survey of Australian surfers (n=569). Domestic surf-related expenditure was estimated at A$3719 per surfer per year, including retail (A$1858) and travel (A$1861). Heterogeneity analyses reveal differences in expenditure patterns across regions, age groups and modalities of engagement in the sport. Aggregating across a population of 727,328 Australian adult surfers, the direct input into the market economy is estimated at A$2.71 billion per year. Standardized wellbeing measures indicate that over 80 % of participants experience positive effects from surfing, particularly in community connectedness, physical, and mental health. However, major concerns exist regarding the sustainability of surfing environments due to erosion and overcrowding pressures. Following the SEEA EA's 'logic chain' framework, this study provides a set of baseline results that may be inputted into accounting processes considering recreational ecosystems services. Further, the systematic approach used in this study could be replicated by comparative analyses across time and other prominent surf regions. As coastal areas worldwide urgently respond to climate threats and the need to support the 'blue economy', a better understanding the socio-economic values derived from ocean-based recreation can help inform coastal polices aimed at fostering more resilient environments.",,,,,167,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001253823500001,,,,,,,BEACH RECREATION; Coastal management; Coastal resilience; EXPENDITURE; GOLD-COAST; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; KNOWLEDGE; MANAGEMENT; MARINE PARK; Monetary flows; Outdoor recreation; PROTECTION; SEEA EA; SURFERS; Surfing economics; TOURISM; UN Oceans Decade,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The design of SMMs is a complex process often involving the integration of both conservation objectives and socio-economic priorities and the resultant trade-offs are highly dependent on the management regime in place. Future marine management is likely to involve greater use of different forms of protected areas with differing levels of protection, particularly for sites where there are multiple competing demands. Consequently, evaluations of the characteristics that enable different forms of SMMs to successfully achieve their objectives are required to inform future conservation networks. The objective of this evidence-based analysis is to assess and compare the biological effects of different forms of SMMs with the aim of providing additional guidelines and insight into the design of future SMMs. Methods: SMMs will be grouped into four main categories according to the degree of management enforcement (marine reserve, marine protected area, partial permanent protection, partial temporal protection). To identify and collate evidence to address these questions a comprehensive systematic search of peer-reviewed scientific literature and grey literature will be undertaken. Articles will be examined for relevance using specified inclusion criteria and the included papers will be critically appraised. Studies that examine the effects on an outcome comparing at least one spatial management measure vs no protection (open access area) or between interventions will be considered. Subgroup analyses and meta-regression will be performed to explore variation in biological effects in relation to covariates (SMMs parameters, habitat and species functional and biological traits). © 2015 Mangano et al.",,,,1,4,,Environ.

In this paper, I develop methods (deterministic and stochastic) that allow one to determine how much habitat needs to be set aside as reserve, once societal decisions concerning the goals of reserves are made.

This article presents the initial findings from this study. The aim was to understand the costs and benefits to fishermen and fish merchants of establishing the MPA. These were assessed using a combination of primary and secondary data. The results indicate that the impacts of the closure differ according to the gear type and the fishing location used by the fishermen. Static gear fishermen who fish inside the closed area have seen changes in terms of increased fishing effort, mostly because they have been able to increase the number of crab and whelk pots they deploy. The effects of the closure on static gear fishermen who fish outside the closed area has been reported in terms of increased conflicts with towed gear fishermen who now fish regularly in their traditional grounds. Fishermen using towed gear on the other hand have been impacted through displacement effects as they have been forced to look for other fishing grounds outside the closed area. Most fish merchants and processors initially claimed that they were heavily impacted by the closure but when they were interviewed 1 year after the closure they suggested a more stable picture. Preliminary analyses of landings data indicate that the introduction of the MPA has so far had minimal impacts on the average incomes and financial profits of fishermen and fish merchants. This conclusion, however, reflects a short-term view as the impacts of the closure of Lyme Bay are likely to be felt for a long time to come. © Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences 2011.",,457-468,,5,40,,Ambio,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,animal; Animals; article; Conservation of Natural Resources; Conservation-people conflicts; cost-benefit analysis; Costs and benefits; Decapoda (Crustacea); economics; England; environmental economics; environmental monitoring; Environmental Monitoring; environmental protection; fish; Fisheries; Fishes; fishing community; fishing effort; fishing gear; fishing industry; food industry; gear selectivity; Great Britain; income distribution; legal aspect; Lyme Bay; marine park; nature-society relations; perception; Perceptions; profitability; resource use; Resource users; Socio-economics; socioeconomic impact; United Kingdom,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Ecosystem services are expected to be under protection when biodiversity is preserved; however, new approaches are needed to confirm this statement. We evaluated how spatial associations between ecosystem services and plant biodiversity on a large spatial scale influence their representativeness in current protected areas. Location: Brazilian seasonally tropical dry forest (Caatinga). Methods: We produced woody plant biodiversity maps (species richness, narrow-range species richness and beta diversity) using species distribution modelling. We estimated regulating services (water purification, carbon storage and erosion control), provisioning services (water supply, fodder and agriculture) and supporting services (water balance, net primary productivity and soil fertility) using primary data and a proxy-based approach. We performed spatial correlation analyses between biodiversity and ecosystem services using Pearson's correlation test. After estimating the percentage of hotspot areas of biodiversity and ecosystem services presented in two types of protected areas (strict protection and sustainable use), we compared it to expected distribution by null model. Results: Mostly weak and intermediary positive correlations arose among biodiversity and ecosystem services (beta diversity with water balance and species richness with water purification and carbon storage). Negative correlations occurred among water balance with both species richness and narrow-range species richness. Strict protection areas were well represented in terms of carbon storage and underrepresented for fodder and agriculture. Sustainable use protected areas were important for water balance. Plant biodiversity variables were not represented in current protected areas. Main conclusions: Positive correlations between biodiversity and ecosystem services do not assure the protection of these targets in protected areas. Surrogates choice based only on spatial correlations might not effectively protect biodiversity and ecosystem services.

Breeding success rates between years ranged from 83.33% in 2018–2019 and 62.5% in 2020–2021. Nesting was monitored at the cliff sites, consistent with prior research. Overall population fluctuations were minimal, varying between 21 individuals in 2020–2021, 17 individuals in 2018–2019, and 16 individuals in 2019–2020. There was an apparent impact of forest fires and other human disturbance activities, and certain proactive conservation measures are proposed to help address these. There was indirect evidence of other threats including poison baits targeting wild carnivores and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) being widely available for use in domestic livestock. The study endorses the approach of establishing vulture-safe zones, which focus on addressing the local threats. This includes raising awareness about wildfire management, controlling toxic NSAIDs availability that are harmful to vultures, discouraging the illegal use of poison-baits, and highlighting the necessity of monitoring threats posed by power infrastructure. Due to the high mobility of LBVs, all these threats need addressing through large-scale vulture safe zone work (up to 100 km radius) surrounding the breeding colonies to secure the LBV’s long-term survival.

This study used data from a long-term fish monitoring and tagging project to assess whether catch-and-release (C&R) shore angling could be compatible with the management objectives of a large, multiple-use, zoned MPA in South Africa. Tag-recapture rates, trends in relative abundance and mean size of target species, sub-lethal effects and other potential environmental impacts suggested that C&R research angling, using best practise fish handling techniques, did not have an overall negative impact on protected fish populations. While positive from a scientific monitoring perspective, more sensitive species did show evidence of increased post-release mortality that would be exacerbated by higher intensity C&R angling conducted by members of the angling public. It is thus concluded that C&R shore angling by members of the angling public is not compatible with MPAs zoned for no-take. However, because C&R angling does have substantially lower negative impacts compared to recreational harvest fisheries, areas zoned for C&R offer good potential as buffer areas adjacent to no-take areas or as stand-alone areas where fish conservation can be improved. This concept is proposed for the improved conservation of surf-zone angling fish species within the iSimangaliso Wetland Park and further afield. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.",,179-188,,,208,,Fish.

In this study, a single-camera baited remote underwater video system (mono-BRUVS) was deployed quarterly at four sites (10–30-m depths) to quantify the reef fish communities in protected (no-take) and adjacent exploited areas of the Pondoland MPA on the east coast of South Africa (Indian Ocean). To assess size (biomass) of the fish communities, we used 10 years of research linefishing data (2006–2016) from the same areas. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to compare abundance and biomass of the fish communities between protected and exploited areas. Significant differences were detected between fish communities in protected and exploited areas based on their abundance and biomass. These differences are primarily ascribed to linefishing and the removal of larger, predatory species such as yellowbelly rockcod Epinephelus marginatus, Scotsman Polysteganus praeorbitalis and black musselcracker Cymatoceps nasutus in the adjacent exploited areas. Removal of such predators may have caused trophic cascading or prey release, resulting in very different fish communities.

In January 2002, beach driving was banned in South Africa, thereby reducing angler access to large areas of the coastline, particularly in less-developed areas. In November 2001 a project had been established in the St Lucia Marine Reserve, on the east coast of South Africa, to compare surf-zone fish populations inside a no-take sanctuary zone with those in an adjacent exploited area. Subsequent to the ban, the aim of the project was adapted such that surf-zone fish populations were monitored for potential recovery in what had been the exploited area, located to the north of Cape Vidal, which anglers could no longer access easily, because of the prohibition on beach driving. Standardised research fishing was conducted at two sites in the previously exploited area and two sites in the no-take sanctuary. Conventional stock-status indicators showed evidence of recovery in the four most common species caught in the previously exploited area, in terms of both abundance and biomass. Generalised additive mixed models were used to account for the influence of targeting specific species; however, subtle differences in habitat between the sampling sites, improved angling skill over time, variability in recruitment, and differential species-specific responses complicated interpretation of results. The implications of the findings are discussed in terms of the future monitoring and management of marine protected areas both within the St Lucia Marine Reserve and farther afield. © 2016 NISC (Pty) Ltd.",,423-441,,3,38,,Afr.

Recently, there has been a sharp increase in the number of video-based methods to study fish fauna, such as baited remote underwater video (BRUV) systems, that, depending on the objectives of the monitoring, can provide complementary or additional data to the more commonly used underwater visual census (UVC). Even though BRUV systems have been widely used in a wide range of geographic contexts and habitats, their use in the Mediterranean basin is still sporadic and the evaluation of the efficiency of BRUV systems and whether they can be used to complement other techniques needs investigation. Thus, the objective of this study was to assess the performance of a BRUV system in a Mediterranean MPA and to evaluate its effectiveness in assessing the structure of fish assemblages (abundance and species richness) by comparing estimates with those obtained by the UVC technique. The fish fauna was monitored by BRUV and UVC in the Capo Caccia - Isola Piana Marine Protected Area (Sardinia, Italy), in July and October-November 2020, at four sampling sites and two areas, hundreds of meters apart, for each site. Overall, 46 taxa and a total of 3620 individuals were observed by BRUV, while 36 taxa and a total of 2995 individuals were observed by UVC. The species first observed in front of the camera's field of view and able to reach the maximum abundance were the planktivores (Chromis chromis and Oblada melanura) followed by several carnivorous species belonging to the families Labridae, Serranidae and Sparidae, and lastly two carnivores (Mullus surmuletus and Mugilidae spp.) and some high-level predators (Dentex dentex, Seriola dumerili, Sphyraena viridensis, Dicentrarchus labrax). The maximum species richness and abundance were reached between 39 and 50 min. The cumulative species richness increased until around 30 min. Species richness was higher during the BRUV compared to the UVC monitoring. The consistency in findings between BRUV and UVC and a better performance of BRUV in detecting some species (mainly high-level predators), supports BRUV as an additional technique for describing and quantifying species richness and abundance also in the Mediterranean Sea. Based on the results of this study, the advantages/disadvantages, shortcomings, suggestions and resources needed for the two techniques are outlined. © 2021.

In recent years, MPAs have become more than simply tools to improve marine conservation. In fact, their management agencies are actively involved in the sustainable development of nearby communities through the promotion of recreational activities (boating, snorkeling, diving). Even if the recreational uses of the marine environment are generally considered benign, they can potentially be highly detrimental for species and their habitats. As a result, these activities should be controlled through the spatial zoning and the regulation of the MPAs. Thus, the achievement of the conservation goals of the MPAs depends primarily on compliance with the regulations of recreational uses inside their boundaries. The objective of this study was to estimate boating usage and the related level of compliance inside the Capo Gallo and Isola delle Femmine (Italy) MPA. The spatial and temporal trend of boating and the behaviors of boaters were measured through direct observation over a period of 2 summer months. The study highlighted a weakness in the effectiveness of this MPA, linked to a social component and compliance with the regulation. Solutions for effective management plans are outlined thanks to an understanding of the limitations and potential of existing MPA policies.

After a brief international review, we used declaration notices and management plans to determine the extent to which social and economic objectives have been included in the purpose statements of MPAs. We then reviewed the current state of knowledge about the social and economic effects of South African MPAs. While many MPAs have purposes and objectives that include some social and economic objectives, these are limited in scope. Most of the MPAs that were declared before 2019 did not include objectives directly related to people or their needs. Social or economic research has been undertaken in fewer than half of the 23 coastal MPAs. Literature is largely limited to: (i) studies on negative impacts of MPAs on adjacent rural communities; (ii) selected aspects of tourism; and (iii) various aspects related to resource use. A wide range of other tangible and intangible effects, including those experienced by a broader set of stakeholders and over differing scales of time and space, have seldom been addressed. A case study on the Tsitsikamma MPA exemplifies challenges associated with understanding the full scope of social and economic aspects of MPAs. We conclude with recommendations to address the challenges of building a better understanding of the social and economic effects of MPAs, ensuring that these are addressed in establishing or revising objectives for each MPA, and assessing the extent to which the objectives meet both human and environmental needs. © 2021 The Author(s).

No-take marine protected areas (MPAs) implemented in critical dugong habitats may efficiently safeguard the remaining population by directly or indirectly reducing these threats. The goal of the present study was to develop scenarios of MPAs targeting dugongs in New Caledonia, focusing on the central west coast where they are known to aggregate during austral winter. We combined 7 h of video surveys from a light airplane and habitat modelling to derive regional predictions of dugong density. We then used these predictions to (1) assess the proportion of dugong population abundance protected by existing no-take MPAs and (2) develop spatial prioritization scenarios based on explicit dugong abundance targets. We found that existing no-take MPAs only protect 11% of the estimated dugong population in the study region, leaving most dugong hotspots unprotected. For the same protected area coverage, prioritization based on abundance would allow protecting nearly five times more dugong individuals. Given the endangered status of the population, a 70% abundance prioritization scenario is warranted, requiring the expansion of existing MPAs toward reef passes and shallow nearshore areas where dugong abundance is the highest. Our study offers an opportunity for dynamic spatial management through the implementation of a seasonal closure strictly restricting human activities in areas where dugongs aggregate in winter. © 2024 The Author(s).

Moreover, we assess the relation between the degree of self-management and fishery parameters (e.g., species catch rates and capture size, gear efficiency). Based on the fishermen's self-organization capacity we identified three organizational levels: low, medium, and high. Low impact fishing gear (e.g., hooks, fishing-spear) and low fishing effort (3.19 +/- 1.41 h per fishing trip) were characteristic of organizations with a high level of self-organization, associated with closed fishing areas. By contrast, organizations with low and medium levels of organization, predominantly found in open-access areas, were mainly characterized by the use of gillnets and high fishing effort (6.17 +/- 4.35 h per fishing trip). Higher catch rates (e.g., for the species Centropomus undecimalis [1.93 +/- 1.40 kg trip(-1) h(-1)] and Cichlasoma urophthalmum [1.78 +/- 1.52 kg trip(-1) h(-1)]) were observed in organizations with a high organizational level. Fishery strategies and fishery parameters were different among organizations with different self-organizational levels as indicated by a multivariate redundancy analysis. The self-organization of SSF to manage fishery resources can be a valuable tool for the conservation of natural resources in small-scale inland fisheries, reducing vulnerability to adverse external factors. Moreover, it provides an economic reserve against regional and national economic and political reforms. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

Simultaneously, the empowerment of the Indigenous inhabitants of the two Nordic lands – via protected areas such as Laponia or Assinica – is a means of development in the communities. In particular, it supports the emergence of tourism and thus reduces the mental gap between the South and the North and their peoples.

The launch of high resolution satellites, with additional spectral bands and the ability to alter the viewing angle, offers a useful technology to focus on this objective. In this context, atmospheric correction is a fundamental step in the pre-processing of such remote sensing imagery and, consequently, different algorithms have been developed for this purpose over the years. They are commonly categorized as imaged-based methods as well as in more advanced physical models based on the radiative transfer theory. Despite the relevance of this topic, a few comparative studies covering several methods have been carried out using high resolution data or which are specifically applied to vegetation covers. In this work, the performance of five representative atmospheric correction algorithms (DOS, QUAC, FLAASH, ATCOR and 6S) has been assessed, using high resolution Worldview-2 imagery and field spectroradiometer data collected simultaneously, with the goal of identifying the most appropriate techniques. The study also included a detailed analysis of the parameterization influence on the final results of the correction, the aerosol model and its optical thickness being important parameters to be properly adjusted. The effects of corrections were studied in vegetation and soil sites belonging to different protected semi-arid ecosystems (high mountain and coastal areas). In summary, the superior performance of model-based algorithms, 6S in particular, has been demonstrated, achieving reflectance estimations very close to the in-situ measurements (RMSE of between 2% and 3%). Finally, an example of the importance of the atmospheric correction in the vegetation estimation in these natural areas is presented, allowing the robust mapping of species and the analysis of multitemporal variations related to the human activity and climate change. © 2016 by the authors; licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.",,,,10,16,,Sensors,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI AG,,,,6S; algorithm; Algorithms; ATCOR; Atmospheric correction; Atmospheric corrections; climate change; Climate change; Climate Change; Conservation; Ecology; ecosystem; Ecosystem; Ecosystems; environmental monitoring; Environmental Monitoring; FLAASH; High resolution WorldView-2 images; Mapping; procedures; remote sensing; Remote sensing; Remote Sensing Technology; Semi-arid ecosystems; Vegetation; Worldview-2,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Coastal and marine environments provide multiple important contributions to the Blue Economy in Barbados, Grenada and St. Vincent and the Grenadines. The total contribution of the ecosystem services provided by mangroves, coral reefs and seagrass beds is estimated at around US$800 million annually for all three countries. The health of these important provisioning ecosystems is under threat. The natural capital in Grenada, Barbados, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines is being depleted, largely due to the anthropogenic drivers of overfishing, coastal development, pollution, introduction of invasive species, and the impacts of climate change. Despite these threats, at present the policies and agreements in place (at the national, regional and international level) operate in fragmented manners with insufficient overarching frameworks to involve financial support or investment to mitigate these threats. In this way, the full potential of the fisheries and their ability to contribute to the wider Blue Economy is not being realised in the target countries. To valorise the fishery sector and generate long-term sustainable financing options, prioritising the domestic market and intra-regional trade, and increasing the value addition of fish products to increase profitability is recommended. Further to this, by improving the condition of the ecosystems on which fisheries depend through sustainable financing strategies such as blue bonds or payments for ecosystem services, the capacity of fisheries can be increased by up to 60%. In this regard, better valuing of the ecosystems for their economic role to each nation should be a key focus of national priorities and investment. Lastly, the improved management of current marine protected areas (MPAs) and the networking of MPAs should be a more refined focus for fisheries management, rather than using MPAs solely for conservation purposes. In terms of investing into the expansion of the aquaculture and mariculture sectors, three focus areas are discussed. The first area is the scaling up of aquaculture and mariculture which offers the potential to optimise the benefits received from the development of the marine environment, create sustainable quality employment, and offer high-value commodities for export and the domestic market. Dedicated blue financing funds are needed to drive technological advancements to facilitate development and exploitation of the currently immature aquaculture sector. The second focus is integrating aquaponics into Blue Economy development strategies alongside fisheries and aquaculture to provide a pathway to realise the sustainable intensification of fisheries, aquaculture, food and agriculture. Lastly, to achieve scalable growth of aquaculture, investing in avenues that enhance existing relationships with other sectors, as well as encouraging new ones, should be explored. In this way, alternative and emerging industries related to aquaculture provide a wealth of opportunities. An essential factor in the development of these industries is to effectively integrate them amidst the Blue Economy, and having a well established understanding of how to implement it. © 2023, Stuart Bowes.",,,,1,5,,J.

MPAs act as the basis for marine conservation in the country, operating as the primary tool for the management of the country's marine resources. Effective management of MPAs depends on the uptake of voluntary guidelines, including Codes of Conduct by recreational users, such as the scuba diving community. With a focus on the MPA of Table Mountain National Park (TMNP), this paper aims to determine the value that Cape divers attach to the marine environment in which they dive, their understanding of the role of the TMNP MPA, and their knowledge and attitudes regarding its management. A semi-structured questionnaire with responses from around 30% of the local diving community showed that while users attached a high value the MPA in which they dive, they presented a lack of knowledge around the regulations and conditions involved with diving within the MPA. This is associated with poor dissemination of user information and general awareness. In-depth interviews with dive operators and management personnel of the MPA indicated a disconnect between the different levels of management, operators and users. Based on this research, we propose alternative and additional management strategies for recreational scuba diving that would contribute to the success of the TMNP MPA including inter alia increased collaboration with the dive community for citizen science activities, improved stakeholder engagement and better access to information on management regulations and expectations. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,224,,Ocean Coast.

These meadows (185 ha; average elevation 1000 m asl are managed for hay/silage production (1-2 cuts per season) and are included in a protected area that hosts a high density of deer (around 30 heads/100 ha). In 2008 and 2010, dry matter (DM) production and loss due to deer grazing were estimated with exclusion cages (1 m(2); 48 exclusion cages in 2008 and 52 in 2010). Night counts with spotlights were conducted to index deer use of meadows plots. DM production inside the cages was fairly good for the area (first-second cut: 4963-2297 kg DM/ha in 2008, and 4145-2475 kg DM/ha in 2010). DM production outside the cages was significantly lower (first-second cut in 2008: 4199-1378 kg DM/ha, and in 2010: 3376-2052 Kg DM/ha). Therefore, the magnitude of losses was of 15-20% at the first and 25-40% at the second cut. DM losses in the different meadow plots were positively correlated with index of deer use, which in some plots was as high as 7-8 heads/ha. Deer grazing reduced also crude protein (CP) content of forage (15.6 +/- 4.4% DM inside exclusion cages and 13.8 +/- 3.5% DM outside), with losses being greater where CP content was higher.

In this area, a large concentration of gillnet fishery temporally overlaps periods of the most abundant occurrence of foraging diving birds. The aim of the article is to show how bycatch can impact the population of a diving duck. To assess this, we calculate the Potential Biological Removal (PBR) for the studied Greater Scaup population and we model the population change according to age-structured matrix models. Summing all the available recent figures on Greater Scaup bycatch in north-west Europe yields an estimated mean annual total of 3,991 individuals (2% of the flyway population). For a baseline stable population, an age-structured matrix model indicates that at this bycatch level the Greater Scaup population that winters in north-west Europe will decrease by 36% over the next 30 years, qualifying the status of the population as 'Vulnerable' according to IUCN criteria. As this population also experiences decline prior to bycatch, this decrease will be 57%, which qualifies the status as 'Endangered'. PBR as an indicator of population vitality does not work in our case because the PBR-informed allowable bycatch values have a significantly negative impact on the population. Our results indicate unambiguously that fishery bycatch is among the most important threats responsible for the Greater Scaup's decline. While recent data suggest that some improvement has taken place in the species' status over the last 10 years, measures to protect Greater Scaup from bycatch are required. The solution should involve the prohibition of gillnet fishing in selected key sites and the use of mitigation techniques in other areas. © BirdLife International, 2020.",,176-193,,2,30,,Bird Conserv.

Large number of spectral bands and high spatial resolution allows for identification of particular species. LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) data provide information about areas such as vegetation structure. Because the species differ in terms of features during the growing season, it is important to know when their spectral responses are unique in the background of the surrounding vegetation. The aim of the study was to identify two expansive grass species: Molinia caerulea and Calamagrostis epigejos in the Natura 2000 area in Poland depending on the period and dataset used. Field work was carried out during late spring, summer and early autumn, in parallel with remote sensing data acquisition. Airborne 1-m resolution HySpex images and LiDAR data were used. HySpex images were corrected geometrically and atmospherically before Minimum Noise Fraction (MNF) transformation and vegetation indices calculation. Based on a LiDAR point cloud generated Canopy Height Model, vegetation structure from discrete and full-waveform data and topographic indexes were generated. Classifications were performed using a Random Forest algorithm. The results show post-classification maps and their accuracies: Kappa value and F1 score being the harmonic mean of producer (PA) and user (UA) accuracy, calculated iteratively. Based on these accuracies and botanical knowledge, it was possible to assess the best identification date and dataset used for analysing both species. For M. caerulea the highest median Kappa was 0.85 (F1 = 0.89) in August and for C. epigejos 0.65 (F1 = 0.73) in September. For both species, adding discrete or full-waveform LiDAR data improved the results. We conclude that hyperspectral (HS) and LiDAR airborne data could be useful to identify grassland species encroaching into Natura 2000 habitats and for supporting their monitoring. © 2018 by the authors.",,,,12,10,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI AG,,,,CALAMAGROSTIS-EPIGEJOS; CLASSIFIERS; Conservation; Data acquisition; Decision trees; Different growth stages; Ecosystems; expansive grass species; Expansive grass species; Forestry; Grass species; HABITATS; Hydraulic structures; hyperspectral; Hyperspectral; HyperSpectral; IMAGERY; IMAGING SPECTROMETRY; INVASIVE PLANTS; Iterative methods; LASER-SCANNING DATA; LiDAR; LIDAR (light detection and ranging); Lithium compounds; mapping; Mapping; Natura 2000; NATURA 2000 HEATHLAND; Optical radar; Random Forest; RANDOM FOREST; Random forest algorithm; Random forests; Remote sensing; Remote sensing techniques; Vegetation; VEGETATION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The loggerhead sea turtle Caretta caretta is a globally distributed species with a regional population within the Mediterranean Sea. Loggerhead nesting in the Mediterranean occurs mainly in the eastern basin, with nesting areas classified as per their magnitude and density. A “moderate-dense” nesting area in Greece is the 2.7 km Koroni beach which has been monitored by ARCHELON since 1995 with the aim to collect reproductive data and to protect nests. Data collected over 25 years showed an average annual number of 55.8 nests, a nesting success (percentage of emergences resulting in egg-laying) of 38.0% and a nesting density of 20.7 nests/km. Nest numbers exhibited a significantly increasing trend in recent years, while clutch size showed a significant downward trend. Incubation durations, considered to be an indicator of incubation temperature and subsequently hatchling sex ratio, have been significantly decreasing over the years—a possible sign of global warming. A major threat is nest predation by foxes and dogs, which has been effectively controlled through the fencing of nests. This nesting population, despite its moderate size, may contribute to the genetic homogeneity of the larger western and eastern nesting aggregations of loggerhead turtles in Greece. The nesting beach has been recently included in the European Union’s NATURA 2000 network of protected areas. Continuation of this long-term monitoring program is expected to provide further insights into the reproductive traits of this important loggerhead population. © 2023, Biodiversity Research Center Academia Sinica.

We tested the hypothesis that in streams located within the PA there will be greater abundance and diversity of organisms. Methods: We collected macroinvertebrates in streams located inside and outside two PA in Southern Brazil: (Fritz Plaumann State Park, Santa Catarina, Teixeira Soares Municipal Natural Park, Rio Grande do Sul). In each stream we measured physical and chemical variables of the water. Three sub-samples of macroinvertebrates were collected on stony substrate with a Surber sampler and calculated abundance of organisms, rarefied richness, Shannon diversity and Evenness. Results: The streams located in the interior of the PA presented well oxygenated waters and slightly basic pH. The electrical conductivity was higher in the external sections than the UC. We observed that rarefied richness, Shannon diversity and equitability were higher in the streams located inside the PA. PerMANOVA indicates that the composition was different between streams sections (p = 0.03) and PA (p = 0.01). Conclusions: The use of organisms as bioindicators showed a potential response to the environmental integrity of streams. Thus, these organisms have potential for use by PA managers for monitoring and decision making on the maintenance of protected areas. © 2020, Sociedade Brasileira de Limnologia.

The announcement reflected a desire to combine rapid conservation efforts with sustainable development. Conservationists in Madagascar focused their attention on the endemic baobab tree, Adansonia grandidieri. This paper aims to identify the contradictions between the political emergency of the biodiversity conservation effort and local development needs. Eighty-three semi-structured interviews were conducted in two villages near the protected area of ""Baobab Alley"" in the Menabe region. Malagasy conservationists believed the area's protected status would benefit the local economy through eco-tourism. However, the conservation actions undertaken there display limited understanding of local dynamics and conflict with farmers' needs. To protect the baobabs, the government has prohibited rice cultivation without providing compensation. We show that the multifunctional baobab tree is integrated into an agroforestry system and protected by farmers. Based on these results, we address the issue of how to combine conservation and local development objectives through the involvement of farmers and the recognition of local knowledge in tree management. We also demonstrate that an emergency approach to conservation is not conducive to the successful integration of conservation and development. © Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2009.",,2759-2777,,10,18,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Adansonia; Adansonia digitata; Adansonia grandidieri; agroforestry; Agroforestry; Baobabs; biodiversity; Conservation; dicotyledon; ecotourism; farmers attitude; Farmers' strategies; farming system; Farming systems; Indian Ocean; Indian Ocean islands; indigenous knowledge; Local development; Local knowledge; local participation; local planning; Madagascar; Participation; protected area; questionnaire survey; resource economy; Resource governance; sustainable development; traditional knowledge,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Using information mostly gathered from the world database on protected areas (WDPA), this paper gives a comparative assessment of MPA progress in countries from different economic categories, ranging from advanced economies to least developed countries (LDCs). Potentially explanatory socio-economic and environmental factors, such as fishing activity and existence of vulnerable marine ecosystems, for variability between nations in the level of MPA implementation are also explored. Existing MPA databases demonstrate a clear gap between developed and developing nations in MPA establishment, with advanced economies accounting for two thirds of the global MPA network. Patterns of MPA use, however, remain extremely heterogeneous between countries within each development group. International agreements on marine conservation, above and beyond the influence of country socio-economic and environmental profiles, are identified as a stimulating factor to MPA implementation. The level dependence on marine resource extraction appears to impede MPA implementation, though the relationship is not statistically significant due to large heterogeneity among countries. Leading developed nations increasingly use MPAs to designate integrated and adaptive management areas, and implementation of large ""no-take"" reserves in relatively-pristine overseas areas continues to accelerate. These analyses highlight certain limitations regarding our ability to assess the true conservation effectiveness of the existing global MPA network and the need for improved indicators of MPA restrictions and management efforts. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,727-737,,3,36,,Mar.

This study aimed to investigate the traditional knowledge of artisanal fishers in relation to the Guiana Dolphin (Sotalia guianensis) and to identify potential conflicts between the species and fishing in the Extractive Reserve Baía do Tubarăo, on the Brazilian Amazon coast. Ethnographic interviews, addressing questions on the morphological and behavioral characteristics of the Guiana Dolphin and the occurrence of conflicts between fishing and this dolphin were carried out with 113 fishers from six fishing communities. All respondents are male, with a predominant age range of 36–45 years (34.51%). Fisheries are carried out mainly on board motor vessels (84.1%; n = 95), using gillnet as the main fishing gear. Most fishers (70.8%; n = 80) identified S. guianensis as one of the cetaceans species occurring in the region. The communities presented a significant difference in their description of the Guiana Dolphin's behavior (p = 0.0007). A total of 27.4% (n = 31) of the respondents reported accidental capture by gill nets, and 6.45% (n = 2) of these reported using the carcasses as bait to capture sharks. Although few fishers have mentioned the use of carcasses as bait, this behavior can be harmful to the Guiana Dolphin population on the Brazilian Amazon coast if it becomes common. The information presented in this study can contribute to elaborate strategies to maintain the Guiana Dolphin population, and facilitate the dialogue between traditional fishing communities, research institutions, and environmental management bodies, in order to fill gaps in scientific knowledge. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,210,,Ocean Coast.

As a consequence of these activities, accidents during fuel extraction, transport, and storage can occur, causing intense environmental degradation. Numerical modeling of the trajectory of oil stains becomes an important tool with low operational costs, providing powerful support to the government agencies in charge of risk management associated with possible oil accidents, by helping to generate scenarios and strategies for containment and cleaning of affected environments. In this sense, the aim of this study is to estimate environmental vulnerability to oil at beaches located in the Itapuă State Park (PEI), a Protection Conservation Unit. This work focused on describing a methodology to estimate the vulnerability of coastal areas, with emphasis on the fact that the study was carried out in a closed environment. For that, an approach was used based on the integration of: (1) an intrinsic variable to the environment; (2) a dynamic variable determined through diesel oil surface dispersion scenarios. Four hypothetical accident scenarios with 20 mł of diesel oil were simulated in 2018, during five days of simulations with instant dumping in the navigation channel of the local waterway near the PEI. The results suggest the forcing of the field of intensity and direction of the local winds as preponderant for the dynamics of movement and structure of the spots, with the zonal and meridional components of the fields of superficial currents acting in this process as a secondary factor. The study showed that all beaches in the park are susceptible to contact with oil throughout the simulated year, with Pombas Beach, Pedreira Beach, and Onça Beach being affected in all simulated scenarios, which classifies them as very high vulnerability and defines them as priority protection areas. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,288,,Environ.

We modelled its geographical distribution with the objective of predicting its historical, current and future (in face of climatic changes) geographical distributions. We also tested the assumption that the species tracks similar ecological conditions while seasonally migrating. Finally, we estimated the overlap between its predicted distributions and the current protected areas network. We used eight modelling techniques in an ensemble-forecasting approach to reach consensus distributional scenarios. The modelled historical breeding and wintering ranges covered a larger area than today. Its current year-round distribution is located in the same region as before but decreased by 13%, whereas the breeding range decreased by 32%, and the wintering range by 43%. The future year-round distribution is predicted to decrease by 47% and shift to east by 2060. Even more drastic decreases in range are predicted for breeding (63%) and wintering (91%) ranges. The niches of the breeding and wintering distributions are good predictors of the records of the other season. The greatest variation (SDs) in the predictions comes from modelling tools and GCMs, and little from climatic scenarios. However, variation in predictions were small within high probability regions for modelling tools by higher everywhere for GCMs and climatic scenarios. The Red-spectacled Amazon is currently underrepresented (<1% of year-round range, and <4% of each seasonal range) in the current reserve system.

This study aimed to assess the environmental quality of three Brazilian MPAs, based on the integrated analysis of biomarkers in pufferfish. The MPAs are differentiated by the degree of anthropogenic influences. The Barra do Una Estuary sustainable reserve (JUR) is a reference area due to its low levels of contamination and species diversity. The Cananéia Estuarine System (CAN) has been recognized as a biosphere reserve by UNESCO, as well as a Ramsar wetland. This MPA was influenced by upstream mining activities, resulting in the introduction of metals in the estuarine waters and the discharge of untreated urban sewage. The Săo Vicente estuary (SSV) lacks proper sanitation infrastructure. All collections were conducted during winter season, and, after collection, the animals were euthanized, their soft tissues were removed, and multiple biomarkers were analyzed in the gills and liver, as biometric, genotoxic, biochemical, and morphological. A one-factor multivariate analysis was applied to evaluate the differences between the data sets, and the matrices were analyzed using PERMANOVA to evaluate the “estuary” factor. The results were integrated using PCA with a 0.4 cut value and an Enhanced Integrated Biomarker Response (EIBR) was calculated. PCA was correlated with biochemical, genotoxic, and morphological biomarkers. In general, SVV differed from CAN and JUR as shown by both univariate and multivariate analyses. SVV also showed the highest EIBR, followed by CAN. Organisms from SSV showed greater gill pathology, elevated AChE activity and lipoperoxidation (LPO), and micronuclei frequency. CAN present intermediate EIBR, with severe pathologies in the liver. CAN seems to present an intermediate environmental quality between SSV and JUR indicating the importance of the existence of MPAs for environmental conservation and the need to monitor such areas, to maintain their suitable environmental quality. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,914,,Sci.

A systematic conservation planning approach, using marxan with zones, was applied to generate alternative marine spatial plans for the Aegean Sea. Relevant human uses were included and their cumulative impact on a wide set of key biodiversity features was considered in the analysis. Different cost scenarios were developed to gain insight on the effects of the approaches used to assess socio-economic factors, and their potential impact on spatial plans. The spatial plans generated differed greatly depending on the method used to estimate opportunity costs and evaluate human activities in monetary terms. The vulnerability weights (the relative vulnerability of ecological features to specific human activities and their impacts) that were estimated based on a cumulative impact assessment, allowed the assessment of each zone in contributing to the achievement of conservation targets, through a transparent planning approach. Results indicate that special care should be given to how socio-economic activities, their impact on the ecosystems, and related costs are incorporated into planning.

Newly developed coalescent methods allow evolutionary ecologists to overcome some limitations associated with inferring population history from classic methods such as Wright's F ST. Here we briefly contrast classic and coalescent methods for looking backward in time through a population genetic lens, focusing on the key advantages of the isolation-with-migration (IM) class of coalescent methods for distinguishing ancient connectedness from actual recurrent contemporary gene flow as causes of genetic similarity or differentiation among populations. Making this critical distinction can lead to the discovery of otherwise obscured histories underlying conventional patterns of spatial variation. We illustrate the importance of these insights using analyses of Pacific fishes, snails, and sea stars in which population sizes and divergence times are more important than rates of contemporary gene flow as determinants of population genetic differentiation. We then extend the IM method to genetic data from two model metapopulation species (California abalone, Australian damselfish). The analyses show the potential use of non-equilibrium IM methods for differentiating among metapopulation models that make different predictions about population parameters and have different implications for the design of marine protected areas and other conservation goals. At face value, the results largely rule out classic metapopulation dynamics (dominated by extinction and colonization rather than connectivity via ongoing recurrent gene flow) but, at the same time, do not strongly support a modern marine metapopulation dynamic (ecologically significant connectivity between demes). However, the results also highlight the need for much more data (i.e., loci) sampled on different spatial scales in order to determine whether metapopulation dynamics might exist on smaller scales than are typically sampled by most phylogeographers and landscape geneticists. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,291-315,,2,26,,Evol.

Mammals observed per search time for each foray was the basic measure for depicting the monthly means and standard deviations for pooled sightings of all mammals, as well as those for three individual species. Wildlife counts, encounters and stalks are provided for the three hunters, as are the times each spent searching, hiding, stalking, following, butchering, preparing, carrying and other activities while undertaking hunts and sample walks. Variations in counts between individuals are related to skill (more experienced individuals counted more game), to age, to locale (those hunting farther from settlements saw more wildlife) and to weapon (mostly muzzle?loading guns). Of the 38,936 mammals counted, impala were the most abundant with 40?6%, followed by buffalo (22?9%), zebra (20?2%), warthog (7?6%), wildebeest (4–9%) and elephant (0–3%). All other species contributed 3–5% to the total. A comparison with earlier counts from the 1960s indicates a drop of over 50% in wildlife sightings close to villages during a 23?year period. The objective of the study was to demonstrate a technique for assessing wildlife in which local hunters, with their knowledge and skills, are used as enumerators. The wildlife figures from 1989 show a consistency in trends, both corporately and individually, that suggests the utility of the technique for community?based wildlife programmes. The advantages of using local hunters and their skills include enhancing their stake and capacities in management and protection of wildlife, their cost effectiveness in comparison with other standard methods using expensive technologies and training, and in encouraging a new agenda, which emphasizes local use and perceptions, for state wildlife agencies. Cette étude expérimentale compare le nombre de fois que trois chasseurs locaux ont aperçu des animaux sauvages, chaque mois, dans le centre de la vallée de la Luangwa, en Zambie (Zone de gestion de la Faune de Munyamadzi), en 1989. Le nombre d'animaux observés par durée de recherche pour chaque incursion servait de mesure de base pour décrire les moyennes mensuelles et les déviations standards pour des observations groupées de tous les animaux ainsi que pour trois espčces prises individuellement. Les dénombrements d'animaux, les recontres fortuites ou non sont notés pour les trois chasseurs, ainsi que le temps que chacun d'eux passe ŕ chercher, ŕ se cacher, ŕ traquer, ŕ suivre, ŕ découper, ŕ préparer, ŕ transporter et ŕ toute autre activité menée pendant la chasse et les promenades?tests. Les variations des dénombrements entre les individus sont mises en relation avec leurs compétences (les plus expérimentés dénombrent plus d'animaux), avec leur ŕge, avec l'endroit (ceux qui chassent plus loin des habitations voient une faune plus nombreuse) et avec les armes (surtout des fusils que Ton recharge par le canon). Des 38.936 mammifčres dénombrés, les impalas étaient les plus abondants avec 40% du total, suivis par les buffles (22,9%), les zčbres (20,2%), les phacochčres (7,6%), les gnous (4,9%) et les éléphants (0,3%). Toutes les autres espčces totalisent 3,5%. La comparaison avec des dénombrements antérieurs, dans les années ?60, indique une chute de plus de 50% du nombre d'animaux vus prčs des villages en une période de 23 ans. Le but de cette étude était de signaler une technique d'évaluation de la faune pour laquelle les chasseurs locaux, avec leurs connaissances et leurs compétences, servent de recenseurs. Les chiffres pour la faune ŕ partir de 1989 montrent une continuité de tendance tant globalement qu'individuellement qui laisse entendre que cette technique est utile pour les programmes communautaires touchant ŕ la faune. Les advantages du recours aux chasseurs locaux et ŕ leurs compétences comprennent aussi la mise en valeur de leur sens des responsabilités et de leur habileté. Copyright © 1994, Wiley Blackwell.

Suitable techniques to restore enriched grasslands and reestablish native communities are increasingly needed. Here we report results of a 5-yr experiment in enriched coastal prairie grasslands (Bodega Marine Reserve, Bodega Bay, California, USA), to determine the combined effects of mowing and biomass removal on total soil nitrogen, net rates of mineralization, nitrogen retention, and species richness and biomass. We mowed and removed plant biomass from plots in areas where the N-fixing shrub, bush lupine (Lupinus arboreus), had greatly enriched the soil, and where the community was composed of weedy introduced plants. Our goal was to facilitate the establishment of the native grassland assemblage such as was found at nearby low soil nitrogen sites. Mowing and biomass removal resulted in a dramatic change in the species assemblage, from exotic annual grasses to a mixed exotic/native forb community composed primarily of perennials. Species richness was significantly greater in treated plots than in control plots; weedy exotic grasses diminished in abundance, and both native and exotic forb species increased. In mowed vs. control plots, there was significantly less mean aboveground biomass, but significantly greater belowground biomass. This shift in species composition had significant impacts on nitrogen retention. In late fall and winter when plant-available N was highest, much nitrogen leached from the effectively fallow control plots where germination of annual grasses did not peak until midwinter. In contrast, mowed plots retained substantially greater amounts of nitrogen, due to the presence of perennial plants possessing large amounts of belowground biomass early in the season. Despite the cumulative removal of 22 g N/m2 in biomass over 5 yr, there was no difference between mowed and control plots in total soil N, pool sizes of inorganic N, or net rates of N mineralization. The results indicate that removal of plant biomass by mowing shifted this plant community from an annual grass to a perennial forb assemblage. However, in doing so, N retention by vegetation was increased, making it more difficult to reduce soil N.",,1088-1100,,4,11,,Ecol.

These plans should include the use of adaptive sustainability indicators that reflect stakeholders concerns, and community interests, allowing a better assessment, management and reporting. An adequate set of indicators for the MPA should help their managers to improve management policies in order to achieve better decision making processes. This study aimed to develop a set of adaptive-participative sustainability indicators (SDI) for the assessment, management and reporting of MPAs that include, through the all process, the participation of local stakeholders at every levels, integrating the stakeholders knowledge and perceptions about the SDI meaning and a self-assessment of the SDI state produced also by the stakeholders. The proposed approach was tested in Luiz Saldanha's Marine Park, located in South East of Portugal between the municipalities of Sesimbra and Setúbal. The framework to design the SDI comprised four phases: i) an international analysis of SDI sets for coastal zones and MPAs; ii) a participatory process, where the stakeholders had the possibility to state their concerns through an online and face to face questionnaire surveys about the strengths and weaknesses of the MPA; iii) an analysis conducted by a team of experts to reach a set of indicators that include the main relevant aspects of environmental, socioeconomic, and governance issues, taking into account the information from the first two phases and iv) a workshop and questionnaires held to assess the stakeholders' global views and perception about the selected set of indicators and each indicator's relative importance. This study showed the importance of a dynamic participative process involving the local stakeholders. It is concluded that this methodology allows a better understanding of each indicator by the local stakeholders and how it could respond to their concerns.

The risk of overfishing is a constant concern. The establishment of conservation units is a strategy to alleviate the pressure on fishing stocks. In the State of Ceará, there are two conservation units in the category of extractive reserves (Resex)1. This study characterized the dynamics of the artisanal fishing of the hook-and-line fleet in three communities with different modes of use. Data were collected by monitoring the landings twice a month from 2017 to 2019 at Mucuripe beach, Batoque Resex and Prainha do Canto Verde2 (PCV) Marine Resex, State of Ceará, Brazil. Data were collected for biomass (B), fishing effort (f), species composition, fishing ground and type of bottom habitat. A total of 234 vessels were sampled and 85 species were identified at the three sites, showing that the use of fisheries targets multiple species. The Kruskal-Wallis test was applied to analyze the production and fishing effort data. The largest landing was shown at Mucuripe (10.16 ton), which also had the highest mean production (224 kg). Mucuripe employed the highest mean effort (2711 hook*hour) and showed the highest number of species per boat, and Batoque the lowest (48 hook*h). Two-way ANOVA was used to test differences in richness and catch per unit effort3 (CPUE) across sites and between seasons. There was no difference in CPUE across sites. The species richness was different across sites, with the highest average in Mucuripe (6.4 species per boat) and the lowest in PCV (3.6 species per boat). There was no variation in species richness between seasons. The correspondence analysis identified a strong association of the ballyhoo halfbeak, corocoro grunt, chere-chere grunt, Atlantic spadefish and Atlantic thread herring with the artificial hard bottom habitat, and a correlation of the guachanche barracuda and black grouper to the natural hard bottom. In both Resex, more specimens were caught in artificial structures and in Mucuripe in natural bottom habitats. The linear regression analysis indicated a significant relationship between effort (f) and biomass (B) in Batoque and PCV. There was no relationship between f and CPUE in both reserves. In this study, it was observed that the choice of fishing grounds and bottom habitat influenced the composition of species caught by the artisanal fleet.

Surf zones and sandy beaches, critical ecotones bridging land and sea, play a pivotal role in the life cycles of numerous fish species and serve as prime areas for subsistence and recreational fishing. Despite their significance, these areas remain understudied when evaluating the effects of MPAs. We compared surf zone fish assemblages inside and outside MPAs across 3 bioregions in California (USA). Using seines and baited remote underwater videos (BRUVs), we found differences in surf zone fish inside and outside MPAs in one region. Inside south region MPAs, we observed higher abundance (Tukey's honest significant difference [HSD] = 0.83, p = 0.0001) and richness (HSD = 0.22, p = 0.0001) in BRUVs and greater biomass (HSD = 0.32, p = 0.0002) in seine surveys compared with reference sites. Selected live-bearing, fished taxa were positively affected by MPAs. Elasmobranchs displayed greater abundance in BRUV surveys and higher biomass in seine surveys inside south region MPAs (HSD = 0.35, p = 0.0003 and HSD = 0.23, p = 0.008, respectively). Although we observed no overall MPA signal for Embiotocidae, abundances of juvenile and large adult barred surfperch (Amphistichus argenteus), the most abundant fished species, were higher inside MPAs (K–S test D = 0.19, p < 0.0001). Influence of habitat characteristics on MPA performance indicated surf zone width was positively associated with fish abundance and biomass but negatively associated with richness. The south region had the largest positive effect size on all MPA performance metrics. Our findings underscored the variability in species richness and composition across regions and survey methods that significantly affected differences observed inside and outside MPAs. A comprehensive assessment of MPA performance should consider specific taxa, their distribution, and the effects of habitat factors and geography. © 2024 The Authors.

The models that guide the management of these fisheries almost always assume reproduction is proportional to mass (isometry), when fecundity generally increases disproportionately to mass (hyperallometry). Judged against several management reference points, we show that assuming isometry overestimates the replenishment potential of exploited fish stocks by 22% (range: 2% to 78%) for 32 of the world's largest fisheries, risking systematic overharvesting. We calculate that target catches based on assumptions of isometry are more than double those based on assumptions of hyperallometry for most species, such that common reference points are set twice as high as they should be to maintain the target level of replenishment. We also show that hyperallometric reproduction provides opportunities for increasing the efficacy of tools that are underused in standard fisheries management, such as protected areas or harvest slot limits. Adopting management strategies that conserve large, hyperfecund fish may, in some instances, result in higher yields relative to traditional approaches. We recommend that future assessment of reference points and quotas include reproductive hyperallometry unless there is clear evidence that it does not occur in that species. © 2021 National Academy of Sciences.

While a build-up of fish biomass has occurred inside reserve boundaries, it is unknown whether reserve size matches the scale of movement of target species. Using passive acoustic telemetry, we quantified movement patterns and home range size of two heavily exploited unicornfish Naso unicornis and Naso lituratus. Fifteen fish (N. unicornis: n = 7; N. lituratus: n = 4 male, n = 4 female) were fitted with internal acoustic tags and tracked continuously over four months within a remote acoustic receiver array located in a decade-old marine reserve. This approach provided robust estimates of unicornfish movement patterns and home range size. The mean home range of 3.2 ha for N. unicornis was almost ten times larger than that previously recorded from a three-week tracking study of the species in Hawaii. While N. lituratus were smaller in body size, their mean home range (6.8 ha) was over twice that of N. unicornis. Both species displayed strong site fidelity, particularly during nocturnal and crepuscular periods. Although there was some overlap, individual movement patterns and home range size were highly variable within species and between sexes. N. unicornis home range increased with body size, and only the three largest fish home ranges extended into the deeper outer reef slope beyond the shallow reef flat. Both Naso species favoured habitat dominated by corals. Some individuals made predictable daily crepuscular migrations between different locations or habitat types. There was no evidence of significant spillover from the marine reserve into adjacent fished areas. Strong site fidelity coupled with negligible spillover suggests that small-scale reserves, with natural habitat boundaries to emigration, are effective in protecting localized unicornfish populations.",,631-642,,3,30,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000293536600009,,,,,,,Acanthuridae; Acoustic telemetry; BLUESPINE UNICORNFISH; CORAL-REEF FISH; FISHERIES CONSERVATION ZONE; Guam; HABITAT UTILIZATION; Home range; Marine reserves; Movement patterns; NASO-UNICORNIS; PROTECTED AREAS; REMOTE HAWAIIAN ATOLLS; SITE FIDELITY; SPATIAL ARRANGEMENT; TROUT PLECTROPOMUS LEOPARDUS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

As part of their efforts to improve local people's standards of living, they have sought the advice of researchers who work in communities, especially those that border on nature reserves. Ethnobotanists, who are turning their attention to the cultural and ecological crises confronting the regions in which they work, are natural allies in this venture. The joint efforts of conservationists and ethnobotanists are being supported by non-profit organizations, intergovernmental agencies and research institutes. The search for new drugs and other natural products from plants is an important element in this collaboration, but it cannot be divorced from the broader objective of promoting the survival of biological and cultural diversity. Conservationists will support biodiversity prospecting and related efforts only if there is a clear benefit for local communities and protected areas. An example of the concrete actions being taken by conservation agencies is the People and Plants Initiative, a joint effort of the World Wide Fund for Nature, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization and the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. The main objective is to support the work of ethnobotanists in developing countries in studies of sustainable plant use and application of their work to conservation and community development.

Lately, MPAs have become one of the favourite tools for management, conservation and recovery of marine resources (Roberts et al., 2001; Green and Donnelly, 2003; Christie and White, 2007; Sale, 2008). MPAs provide a large array of benefits to both human and non-human components of marine ecosystems (Cesar, 2000). These benefits might be divided into two large groups: one related to extractive activities, like fishing, and the other one related to non-extractive activities, such as tourism. Many authors have reported that after the establishment of MPAs, fishing has increased outside of them (McClanahan and Mangi, 2000; Roberts et al., 2001), while others have observed an increase in fish density, biomass and richness inside and outside the MPAs limits (Pina-Amargos, 2008). Others, on the other hand, have expressed that achievement of such benefits is not as fast as the advocates of MPAs state (Hatcher, 1997; Brown et al., 2001). Socioeconomic studies play a fundamental role among stakeholders to implement, maintain and approve MPAs (Angulo-Valdes and Hatcher, 2010). That is why involving the main actors in those studies regarding the direct or indirect uses of resources and environmental services of MPAs becomes crucial (Bunce et al., 1999; Brown et al., 2001). © Paulo A.L.D.

Populations of the Ocellated Turkey (Meleagris ocellata), a heavily hunted Yucatán endemic, appear to be declining rapidly throughout its small geographic range, despite large protected areas. We radio-tagged adult males during the breeding season in a protected, mixed-use area in Belize to describe individual and annual variation in home range size and use. Our objectives were to (1) determine the minimum reserve area necessary to sustain a population of this species, (2) evaluate use of data from related species for home range parameters in conservation plans, and (3) help design species-specific survey methods suitable for distance sampling and camera trapping. There were no differences in mean minimum convex polygon (969 ha), 95% fixed kernel (692 ha), and 50% fixed kernel (90 ha) due to breeding strategy or habitat disturbance. The core home ranges of some individuals were restricted to either intact forest or pastures. Across the entire study population, >50% of locations were in areas without closed canopy cover, which suggests that this species can use a matrix of forested and agricultural habitat. Available space-use data reveal that most fully protected areas harboring this species are unlikely to meet minimum reserve area requirements if they were to become completely isolated. In comparison to other, similarly sized galliform species, the mean home range of male Ocellated Turkeys is much larger, possibly because of the idiosyncratic requirements of different mating systems. These large home ranges have implications for transect spacing, camera grid characteristics, photo event sampling, and observer movement rates best suited for accurate surveys of Ocellated Turkeys. © 2018 American Ornithological Society.",,815-827,,4,120,,Condor,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: American Ornithological Society,,,,ARGUSIANUS-ARGUS; Belize; BIRDS; camera trapping; CAMERA TRAPS; CAPERCAILLIE; CONSERVATION; distance sampling; FOREST; FRAGMENTATION; HABITAT LOSS; MEXICO; movement rate; RECOMMENDATIONS; source-sink,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Mangrove-reef connectivity is known to enhance reserve effectiveness when habitats are close together (< 250 m apart). Coral reefs are, however, often farther from mangroves, making it difficult to integrate mangrove-reef connectivity into conservation more widely. To determine if connectivity affects reserve performance beyond 250 m, we examined effects on reef fish in Hervey Bay, Queensland, Australia. Reserves affected fish assemblages and enhanced the abundances of harvested species and key functional groups on reefs within 500 m of mangroves (about 10 times greater inside reserves), but not on isolated reefs. Connectivity can affect reserve performance over broader distances than previously shown. We suggest that connectivity effects on inshore reef fish may simply be amplified on reefs located closest to adjacent mangroves, provided those reefs are within the migratory capabilities of fish. Mangrove-reef connectivity should be viewed as an important conservation target and may be broadly incorporated into reserve design by prioritizing the protection of seascapes where mangroves and reefs are closest. © Inter-Research 2015.",,157-165,,,527,,Mar.

The bed is surveyed along 27 profiles across the structures and the shoreline position is monitored by means of image analysis. Evaluation of volume changes shows that sand is in average trapped within the protected area, being transported off-shore from gaps and returning inshore over the structures. Time evolution of bed level changes is calculated using Bijker formula, which allows to obtain a correct prediction of maximum erosion but not of its localization, since the transport process spatial delay is not accounted for.

Objective: The main objective of this study was to identify cultural ecosystem service hot-spots, and factors that characterize such hot-spots and define the spatial associations between cultural ecosystem services in Southern Patagonia (Argentina). Methods: The study was carried out in Southern Patagonia (243.9 thousand km2) located between 46° and 55° SL with the Andes mountains on the western fringe and the Atlantic Ocean on the eastern fringe of the study area. The study region has a range of different vegetation types (grasslands, shrub-lands, peat-lands and forests) though the cold arid steppe is the main vegetation type. We used geo-tagged digital images that local people and visitors posted in the Panoramio web platform to identify hot-spots of four cultural ecosystem services (aesthetic value, existence value, recreation and local identity) and relate these hot-spots with social and biophysical landscape features. Results: Aesthetic value was the main cultural service tagged by people, followed by the existence value for biodiversity conservation, followed by local identity and then recreational activity. The spatial distribution of these cultural ecosystem services are associated with different social and biophysical characteristics, such as the presence of water bodies, vegetation types, marine and terrestrial fauna, protected areas, urbanization, accessibility and tourism offer. The most important factors are the presence of water in Santa Cruz and tourism offer in Tierra del Fuego. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that this methodology is useful for assessing cultural ecosystem services at the regional scale, especially in areas with low data availability and field accessibility, such as Southern Patagonia. We also identify new research challenges that can be addressed in cultural ecosystem services research through the use of this method. © 2015, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,383-399,,2,31,,Landsc.

We found that wintering common coots interrupted their marked negative trend coinciding with the hunting moratorium, and Before-After-Control-Impact modelling confirmed this fact. However breeding common coots continued their negative trend in numbers. We also found that crested coots increased their wintering numbers during the hunting moratorium years but not during breeding. We detected a strong and time variant cost of release on survival probability of crested coots, but annual survival probability was found to be constant and low for experienced birds, with no clear effects of the hunting moratorium on survival probability. We conclude that the moratorium had some positive effect on both species, but we suggest that lack of enforcement during a traditional hunting practice at the end of each hunting season, most likely precluded the moratorium having a long-lasting effect on the breeding numbers and probably on survival, of both species. Hence, when fully-enforced hunting moratoria are difficult to implement, we recommend the creation of hunting preserves of high habitat quality to attract coots during the winter, allowing its subsequent reproduction during the breeding season. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,171-178,,,165,,Biol.

This study aims to identify areas of reptile endemicity richness in a global biodiversity hot spot (Morocco) under current and future climatic conditions and to investigate the role of protected areas in biodiversity conservation under climate change. Species distribution models (SDM) were performed over the distribution of 21 endemic reptiles, combined to estimate current species richness at 1 × 1 km resolution and projected to years 2050 and 2080 according to distinct story lines and ensemble global circulation models, assuming unlimited and null dispersion ability. Generalized additive models were performed between species richness and geographic characteristics of 43 protected areas. SDM found precipitation as the most important factor related to current species distributions. Important reductions in future suitable areas were predicted for 50 % of species, and four species were identified as highly vulnerable to extinction. Drastic reductions in species-rich areas were predicted for the future, with considerable variability between years and dispersal scenarios. High turnover rates of species composition were predicted for eastern Morocco, whereas low values were forecasted for the Northern Atlantic coast and mountains. Species richness for current and future conditions was significantly related to the altitude and latitude of protected areas. Protected areas located in mountains and/or in the Northern Atlantic coast were identified as refugia, where population monitoring and conservation management is needed. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.",,877-889,,9,100,,Naturwissenschaften,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"animal; Animals; article; Atlantic Ocean; biodiversity; Biodiversity; Biomod; climate change; Climate Change; coast; conservation; conservation management; Conservation of Natural Resources; dispersal; endemic species; environmental protection; extinction; Future scenarios; Mediterranean hot spot; Models, Theoretical; monitoring; Morocco; Mountains; physiology; protected area; reptile; Reptiles; Reptilia; species richness; theoretical model; turnover",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This activity is a means of production that provides the necessary products for the subsistence of shepherds, although knowledge of the specific characteristics of the grasses and implications for livestock production is lacking. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the primary productivity, nutritional quality and predominant plant species of three grasslands in the APFFNT, in order to evaluate their Dry Matter (DM) production. Grasslands were selected in the Agua Blanca, Loma Alta and La Peńuela localities. In each locality six areas for study were defined, and in each of the area, an exclusion cage was placed. From September 2013 to August 2014, samples were taken every 28 days to determine the increase of the grass yield in each area over time. In the grasslands in Agua Blanca, significant differences were not observed in Net Forage Accumulation (NFA) across time. In the Loma Alta grasslands, however, production was different (P<0.05) from November to April, the months corresponding to the lowest production levels and the least precipitation. In the La Peńuela grasslands, the lowest NFA was produced in February and the highest NFA in July (P<0.05). The results presented in this paper indicate a high degree of variation in forage quality across the months studied. An increase in fiber and a decrease in protein was observed during the dry season.

This part of the system, corresponding to the confluence of the Vouga River with the lagoon, is very important culturally and socioeconomically for the local communities, taking place several human activities, especially agriculture. To prevent salt water intrusion from the Ria de Aveiro into agriculture fields, a floodbank was initiated in the 90's. In frame of ongoing changes in Ria de Aveiro hydrodynamics, the existing floodbank will be now extended, introducing further changes in the ecological dynamics of the BVL and its adjacent area. As a consequence, the water level in the floodbank downstream side is expected to rise, increasing the submersion period in tidal wetlands, and leading to coastal squeeze. The aim of this study is to apply an ecosystem based-management approach to mitigate the impacts on biodiversity resulting from the management plan. To do so, we have modelled the implications of the changes in several hydrological and environmental variables on four saltmarsh species and habitats distribution, as well as on their associated ecosystem services, both upstream and downstream of the floodbank. The ecosystem services of interest were prioritized by stakeholders' elicitation, which were then used as an input to a spatial multi-criteria analysis aimed to find the best management actions to compensate for the unintended loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services in the BVL. According to our results, the main areas to be preserved in the BVL were the traditional agricultural mosaic fields; the freshwater courses and the subtidal estuarine channels. By combining ecology with the analysis of social preferences, this study shows how co-developed solutions can support adaptive management and the conservation of coastal ecosystems. © 2018 The Authors",,1113-1128,,,652,,Sci.

Pesticide risks are expected to be influenced by climate change, which will result in an increase of temperatures and a decrease in annual precipitation. On the other hand, pesticide dosages are expected to change given the increase in pest resistance and the implementation of environmental policies like the European ´Farm-to-Fork` strategy, which aims for a 50 % reduction in pesticide usage by 2030. The influence of climate change and pesticide use practices on the ecological risks of pesticides needs to be evaluated making use of realistic environmental scenarios. This study investigates how different climate change and pesticide use practices affect the ecological risks of pesticides in the Albufera Natural Park (Valencia, Spain), a protected Mediterranean coastal wetland. We performed a probabilistic risk assessment for nine pesticides applied in rice production using three climatic scenarios (for the years 2008, 2050 and 2100), three pesticide dosage regimes (the recommended dose, and 50 % increase and 50 % decrease), and their combinations. The scenarios were used to simulate pesticide exposure concentrations in the water column of the rice paddies using the RICEWQ model. Pesticide effects were characterized using acute and chronic Species Sensitivity Distributions built with toxicity data for aquatic organisms. Risk quotients were calculated as probability distributions making use of Bayesian networks. Our results show that future climate projections will influence exposure concentrations for some of the studied pesticides, yielding higher dissipation and lower exposure in scenarios dominated by an increase of temperatures, and higher exposure peaks in scenarios where heavy precipitation events occur right after pesticide application. Our case study shows that pesticides such as azoxystrobin, difenoconazole and MCPA are posing unacceptable ecological risks for aquatic organisms, and that the implementation of the ´Farm-to-Fork` strategy is crucial to reduce them. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,878,,Sci.

Yet, to date, the reserve effect is still weakly evaluated, particularly for soft-sediment habitats. The Arrábida MPA, considered as a biodiversity hotspot, was fully established in 2009 on the west coast of Portugal and is characterized by large expanses of soft-sediment habitats. This MPA was established to protect biodiversity and to ensure the livelihood of the local small-scale fisheries community. Beyond before–after-control–impact (BACI) analyses were carried out on catch data (abundance and biomass) of 351 trammel net sets from experimental fishing campaigns (2007–2019) to study the reserve effect on demersal fish populations. The results show a declining trend in abundance inside and outside the protected area, with significant positive effects only found for undersize commercial species and Solea senegalensis, and a general increase in fish species total length. Despite the lack of any obvious reserve effect, the increase in fish length can be considered as a first sign. Anthropogenic pressures are generalized around the area, and transgressions of the restrictions are frequently observed inside the no-take zone. These can, among other aspects, delay or prevent the expected reserve effects. Therefore, enforcement and/or modification of the spatial plan must be incentivized to achieve the goals of the MPA. © 2021 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,1584-1595,,7,31,,Aquatic Conserv. Mar. Freshw.

Due to the lack of information in Mexico, the effect of the distance and density of the nearest population on the tree diversity of 109 sites of tropical natural areas was analyzed, globally and by vegetation type, and over their surrounding forested area. Methods: By a search with Google Scholar™, documents about six types of tropical forests were selected. One hundred and nine values of sampling area, area of the forest fragment, DBH, ? diversity, Shannon, Simpson, and equitability indices, distance to the nearest town, population size and age of the protection decree were extracted. The ? diversity was standardized for 1 cm DBH and 1 ha. The sampling area-diversity relationship was analyzed by logarithmic regression, and the biological diversity-distance and population density relationships by logistic regression. Key results: With the analysis of 73 diversity data, ? diversity was positively related to the distance and negatively to the size of the population closest to the unprotected natural areas. As distance and size to the closest population increase, the ? diversity increases and decreases, respectively. These relationships between size and distance of populations and ? diversity were also present individually in the non-protected areas of subdeciduous forest, subhumid, humid, and mountain forest. On the contrary, with the analysis of 36 diversity data for the natural reserves, there was no relationship. Conclusions: This work shows that the distance and density of the population settlement closest to the natural area affect tree diversity, which in 40 years has decreased by 11.4% in the sites analyzed herein.

Populations of A. setubalense have a three-dimensional structure and increase the complexity and biodiversity in their habitat, and are therefore considered to be a habitat-forming species. Nevertheless, at present the information on the extension, biomass, density, population structure, and ecology of this species is scarce, and it could be susceptible to the longline fishing practices that take place in the Canary Islands. The main objectives of this study are to define a functional and accurate methodology to measure specimens of A. setubalense by comparing differences in users, techniques, and morphometric measurements; to describe the height-size relationship; to present the population size structure of the species, and to establish a relationship between the size of A. setubalense and the environmental variables that can be found at the “Banco de La Concepción” seamount (BC). The obtained results suggest that surface area is the most reliable measurement to define the size of this species, whilst also showing a clear correlation with the height of the species. The selected methodology has made it possible to measure the surface area of 1035 specimens and thus obtain the size structure of the population of A. setubalense in BC. The GAM model that was used to analyse the relationship between the size of A. setubalense and the geomorphologic variables of BC, shows areas where there is a high probability of finding large specimens of the species. The results of this study greatly enhance the knowledge of this species and its habitat, and should be considered in future conservation directives, or in the development of indicators to show the good environmental state of habitats. Additionally, the study improves analysis methodology that, with the appropriate morphometric measurements, can favour the development of future studies of this species, and indeed others with a similar morphology or growth pattern. © 2022",,,,,185,,Deep-Sea Res.

The establishment of marine protected areas (MPAs) is considered essential for conserving the marine environment and biodiversity. However, a number of natural and social factors influence the planning process for MPAs, with effects on the exact conservation strategy adopted. Sometimes social interests dominate and the final zoning of the MPA fails to meet the initial conservation criteria, which were recommended on the basis of scientific results. Geographic Information Systems (GIS), with their derived and specific applications, provide new opportunities for zoning and management of the marine environment. These tools facilitate analysis of large datasets and allow integration of more information into the MPA planning process. There is already a database full of geo-referenced information about marine habitat distribution, communities, endangered species and human activities, around La Palma (Canary Islands, Spain). We analyzed this information, using GIS tools and the algorithm Marxan, and presented seven alternative MPA zones in the sublittoral environment around La Palma. This is the first time that an objective and systematic process, combining knowledge about human activities as well as conservation status, has been used to establish the suitable placement of MPAs in the Canary Islands. The zoning recommended by this study differs significantly from that currently in place.

New land uses challenge traditional livelihoods and add threats to species historically poached in retaliation for livestock depredation. Chronicle biodiversity conflicts became acute after a reported increase in depredation allegedly because of those changes and conflicts among stakeholders. Using the framework of human dimensions of wildlife management, pioneer research on the vulnerabilities of rural communities to jaguar-and-puma conflicts was led in ‘Boqueirăo da Onça’, within and surrounding that polygon of protected areas. The aim was to identify, describe, understand, and predict human behaviour, and link the outcomes with the IUCN natural resources governance concept. Negative attitudes arose from 72% and 35.2% participants towards the proximity of jaguar and proximity of puma, respectively. When asked about institutions working for wildlife protection, and institutions working for people facing problems caused by carnivores, 64.9% and 88.8%, respectively, were unaware of them. Regarding beliefs about co-occurrence with jaguars or pumas, 80.9% and 82.9%, respectively, mentioned more problems than benefits, with 74.5% believing in the increase of both species’ populations due to the creation of protected areas. This scenario may ease jaguar and puma to become scapegoats for human-wildlife and broader social conflicts, unless values such as justice and transparency are pursued. © 2021 by author(s).",,80-102,,2,1,,J.

Inside Aveiro lagoon there is a salt production site known as Salgado de Aveiro, which represents an important cultural value for the region. However, the decline of artisanal salt production has resulted in saltpans abandonment and consequently degradation, affecting negatively their natural and cultural values. Saltpans rehabilitation or maintenance is the only way to conserve those values. In Aveiro, the project Sal de Aveiro was developed aiming saltpans rehabilitation through the development of new businesses related with artisanal salt production, aquaculture, or tourism. This study proposes to identify the most suitable tourism and recreation activities for saltpans of Aveiro. Thus, it proposes to develop a qualitative analysis of Salgado de Aveiro in terms of legal framework, tourism activities under development, saltpans physical conditions, location and accesses as well as activities developed in other salt production sites or wetlands. As a result, the authors identified a widely ranges of tourism and recreation potential activities to be developed in the saltpans of Aveiro. The activities were divided in different categories according with their core product: artisanal salt production; biodiversity; aquaculture; health and wellbeing; water sports; other outdoor recreation activities; and accommodation.

We focused on four main target species: Genidens barbus, Micropogonias furnieri, Macrodon ancylodon and Mugil Liza, which are the most important species targeted by fishing communities in the study area. We used face-to-face individual interviews with 34 fishers to identify changes in the current and past catches based on fishers perceptions. The current catches were smaller than the best previous catches for all species, suggesting a decline in catches. The perceived causes for the decline in catches were the industrial fishing, the shrimp trawling bycatch, and the overall increase in fishing effort. Fishers' knowledge has proved to be an important complementary tool in the monitoring of catches.

(eds.), Global Coastal Issues of 2020. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 95, pp. 880-884. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. The coastal zone is a mosaic of ecosystems and natural resources strategically important for the economic development of society. In this region, as a result of different projects, looks and material and immaterial representations, several disputes and conflicts emerge. Most of these activities cause environmental impacts. In order to mitigate negative impacts and maximize positive impacts, Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) is required. ICZM is defined as an environmental management system composed of structures and processes that are organized to catalyze sustainable development in the coastal zone. Aiming to support the ICZM in the studied area, the Environmental Protection Area - EPA of Pau Brasil (Southeastern Brazil), a Mind Map was drawn. The main axis of the map is based on the occupation of the protected area, from which one can view information inputs and outputs. Inputs are all information about the EPA, eg. physical characteristics that determine each of the geoenvironmental units, legislation and demands for use and their potential impacts. This information is processed within the EPA, generating the outputs, which are characterized by the management decisions, structures and processes, which would include conservation strategies and allowed uses. This hierarchical information diagram made it possible to identify the environmental vulnerabilities of each geoenvironmental unit, potentialities and possible management actions, including both conservation strategies and allowed uses, as well as to determine each legislation that protects these geoenvironmental units. The occupation of the coastal zone presupposes that society will modify and transform nature to supply its material needs without considering or understanding, in most cases, the dynamics and environmental impacts of anthropic activities. Thus, the mapping of vulnerability, potentiality and conservation action for geoenvironmental units is presented as a tool that can improve management in order to minimize adverse impacts on nature and enhance the benefits to society. © Coastal Education and Research Foundation, Inc. 2020.",,880-884,,sp1,95,,J.

Due to the high levels of uncertainty surrounding both the evidence of VME presence and the consequences of interaction with different types of gear, a risk-management framework is proposed, similar to that which has been used successfully to minimise the effects of longline fishing mortality on seabirds. Risk is broadly defined as the conditional probability of adverse impacts given particular bottom fishing activities multiplied by the consequences of those impacts. The aim of the risk-management framework is to avoid significant adverse impacts on VMEs from bottom fishing activities. The framework consists of four steps: (i) Risk analysis of current and proposed fishing activities; evidence of potential VMEs; scale of interactions between fishing activities and VMEs; impact of interactions on VMEs; and recovery potential of VMEs. (ii) Risk evaluation. Information on likelihood and consequences of interactions of bottom fishing gear with VMEs and associated uncertainties from risk analysis is combined to produce risk metrics. (iii) Risk elimination or mitigation. The spatial scale at which this framework operates should be related to the scale of VMEs, presently unknown. However, management at the level of fine-scale rectangles (0.5° latitude by 1.0° longitude) or smaller can be used in the first instance. Temporal scales must be matched to the recovery scale of VMEs, which are probably in the order of many decades or even centuries. Unacceptable levels of risk from bottom fishing activities to VMEs must be eliminated or reduced to acceptable levels through the use of management measures including, inter alia, closed areas around identified VMEs, open and closed management areas, by-catch limits for VME-forming organisms, gear modification or spatial distribution of fishing effort. (iv) Review. All of the above steps should be reviewed annually to ensure that all relevant or new information has been included, appropriate scientific research and data collection plans are in place and that risk mitigation measures are successful in their implementation.",,177-193,,,16,,CCAMLR Sci.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,bottom fishing gear; Bottom fishing gear; CCAMLR; COMMUNITY; CONSERVE; CORAL; ECOLOGY; FISHERIES; mitigation; Mitigation; PRACTICAL IMPLEMENTATION; risk assessment; Risk assessment; risk management; Risk management; SHELF; SPONGES; vulnerable marine ecosystems; Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems; WATER; WEDDELL SEA,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Prior studies of climate change effects in protected areas have largely focused on average climatic conditions. However, extreme weather may have stronger effects on wildlife populations and habitats than changes in averages. Our goal was to quantify future changes in the frequency of extreme heat, drought, and false springs, during the avian breeding season, in 415 National Wildlife Refuges in the conterminous United States. We analyzed spatially detailed data on extreme weather frequencies during the historical period (1950–2005) and under different scenarios of future climate change by mid- and late-21st century. We found that all wildlife refuges will likely experience substantial changes in the frequencies of extreme weather, but the types of projected changes differed among refuges. Extreme heat is projected to increase dramatically in all wildlife refuges, whereas changes in droughts and false springs are projected to increase or decrease on a regional basis. Half of all wildlife refuges are projected to see increases in frequency (> 20% higher than the current rate) in at least two types of weather extremes by mid-century. Wildlife refuges in the Southwest and Pacific Southwest are projected to exhibit the fastest rates of change, and may deserve extra attention. Climate change adaptation strategies in protected areas, such as the U.S. wildlife refuges, may need to seriously consider future changes in extreme weather, including the considerable spatial variation of these changes. © 2016",,327-335,,,201,,Biol.

At the request of the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR), one of these MPAs was established on an undeveloped sand-bottom area previously permitted by SCDNR for artificial reef development. After monitoring the production potential of unfished artificial reefs for several years on shallower experimental reef sites, SCDNR staff proposed that a deeper location had the potential to become a highly productive spawning site, particularly for deepwater grouper species. Development of this permitted site began in 2014 when two 79-m (260 ft) barges with nearly 30 m (100 ft) of added profile were deployed. Subsequent monitoring of the site through remotely operated underwater vehicle video revealed colonization by several target species, including Warsaw Grouper Hyporthodus nigritus, Snowy Grouper H. niveatus, and Misty Grouper H. mystacinus. Due in part to the success of this deepwater MPA, the SCDNR was also granted spawning special management zone designation for its two previously established, undisclosed experimental artificial reef sites in federal waters off South Carolina in 2017.",,187-196,,,86,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000456750700011,,,,,,,,,"Bortone, SA",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,MARINE ARTIFICIAL REEF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT: INTEGRATING FISHERIES MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This has been linked to massive residential and infrastructural development based on a short-term, profitable and resource-intensive consuming model. As a result, large amounts of agricultural, natural and semi-natural soils have been lost to artificial areas, especially around main cities and on the coast. In this study, we assessed the effectiveness of the Spanish Shores Act at preventing land development in two biogeographical regions and three administrative scales between 1988 and 2020 using a BACI design and remote sensing data. We also analysed the combined effect of other regulations to prevent land development on the coast. The Shores Act was effective in reducing land development although moderate to substantial land development occurred in the zones affected by the Law, especially in the Mediterranean region. Adding other sectoral regulations to the Shores Act notably and consistently reduced land development across regions. Among them, cumulative protected area (PA) regulations were most effective in reducing coastal land development. The use of satellite images, especially Sentinel 2A MSI data within a BACI design, proved a useful method for assessing the effectiveness of fine-scale objectives of environmental policies such as the Shores Act. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,239,,Ocean Coast.

Over eight years, this research presents the results of a long-term monitoring study of the UK's first large scale offshore mussel farm following a BACI (Before-After Control-Impact) approach to evaluate the temporal and spatial effects of the farm on benthic habitat and epibenthic species assemblages. Situated in historical fishing ground, the farm is located on a degraded seabed ecosystem dominated by soft sediment. After seven years of farming, damaged seabed increased its complexity, with biogenic reef being created (30 % increase). The structure is attracting a significantly increasing diversity and abundance of sessile, sedentary and mobile species to the area compared to control sites. The abundance and diversity of commercial species increased compared to far control sites and certain commercial species were exclusively recorded beneath the mussel headlines: Cancer pagurus, Maja squinado and Necora puber. Results are discussed through a three mechanisms framework: Species recruitment, settlement, and subsidy. Results from this study are crucial to support policymakers develope a sustainable offshore industry as part of the blue economy that can both produce sustainable protein and contribute to marine conservation objectives as ‘other effective area-based conservation measures’ (OECM).

Location: Albatross Island, Tasmania, and south Australian waters. Methods: We integrated a tracking dataset consisting of 111 individuals collected over 23 years and generated Brownian bridge kernel density estimations to identify important habitat. We quantified the overlap between the foraging distribution of early incubating adults and post-fledgling juveniles with management boundaries and marine reserves. We compared the extent of coverage of albatross foraging areas by Marine Protection Areas (MPAs) relative to a randomly designed network of the same size to determine whether the spatial protection measures are likely to be effective. Results: Incubating adults consistently foraged in waters to the northwest of Tasmania while post-fledglings occupied shelf waters around Tasmania and South Australia. We show that our sample of 99 incubating adults adequately represented the population but that our sample of 12 post-fledgling birds was insufficient, thereby limiting the confidence in our results for this life stage. The Commonwealth Government has the majority of management responsibility for shy albatross at-sea, containing 88% and 90% of the area occupied most intensively by adult and post-fledgling shy albatross, respectively. Randomly designed reserve networks outperformed the current MPA network for both life stages, such that the mean protection by a random reserve system was 30% and 12% higher than the actual protection for adults and juveniles in Commonwealth waters. Main conclusions: Important foraging habitat of shy albatross from Albatross Island is mostly within Commonwealth-managed waters. The current MPA network, the only spatial protection measure for shy albatross, provides less coverage for this species than a randomly placed network. An increase in the representation of productive shelf waters in MPA networks would benefit the conservation of shy albatross through reducing fisheries interactions and protecting habitat in these regions. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,1744-1755,,12,24,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,Albatross Bay; animal telemetry; Animalia; Australia; Aves; Brownian bridge; Brownian motion; Commonwealth of Nations; conservation; conservation management; endangered species; fledging; foraging behavior; incubation; marine park; marine protected areas; Queensland; seabird; seabirds; South Australia; Tasmania; telemetry; Thalassarche cauta; threatened species; tracking,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Waterbirds selected a variety of wetlands emphasizing the importance of wetland diversity within habitat complexes. However, only managed tidal impoundments (MTIs) and protected conservation lands were selected across all waterbird guilds. Results suggest these are contemporary keystone habitats for promoting wintering waterbird abundance and diversity in South Carolina and other South Atlantic coastal regions. To compensate for future coastal wetland loss while facilitating the current and future needs of migrating and wintering waterbirds, we recommend: (1) identification and continued management of MTIs resilient to sea-level rise; (2) strategic planning and partnerships for land acquisition and legal protections inland; and (3) land protection networks between extant coastal and inland sites designated for future construction and emigration of decommissioned MTIs. Stakeholder and partner engagement is paramount to prioritize resource allocation for the restoration, construction, and decommissioning of coastal and inland wetlands. © 2023 Society for Ecological Restoration.",,,,7,31,,Restor.

The major findings of this study indicate that environmental knowledge for sustainable development, motivation to be involved with CBETM, perceived economic impact of CBETM, perceived social impact of CBETM and perceived cultural impact of CBETM have a greater influence on intention to participate in CBETM. It implies that these factors lead to the formation of positive intention in managing CBETM and promote community participation. This study will help policymakers to take relevant management policies to increase environmental knowledge for sustainable development, to motivate local community in CBETM, and to increase economic, social and cultural benefits among residents.

Black coral forests were observed at several sites in the north Pacific of the country, within the Guanacaste Conservation Area (ACG), which are reported and characterized in this study. Objective: To determine the species of black corals present in the ACG Marine Sector and its surroundings, and geographically locate the sites where black coral forests grow. Methods: Visual censuses were made by diving, samples were taken and analyzed in the laboratory for identification. Results: These black coral forests are composed of two species: Myriopathes panamensis and Antipathes galapagensis, these species are described and illustrated. The coral forests were found within and outside ACG marine protected areas. Myriopathes panamensis was found between 15-35 m depth and A. galapagensis at 30-45 m. Associated macrofauna was observed among the branches of M. panamensis, their ecological importance and status have not been determined. Conclusions: The species found did not have morphological variations with those described in other similar regions. Associated fauna was found (mainly the anemone Nemanthus californicus, the bivalve Pteria sterna and the longnose hawkfish Oxycirrhithes typus) and needs to be studied to determine its role on black corals.

Increases in abundance and biomass within NTZs, with spillover effects to adjacent areas, have been documented. However, most studies occurred at highly connected sites near regions that can replenish the NTZ. In this study we assess NTZ effects within the Mona Island marine protected area (MPA), located within the Mona Passage, a partial biogeographic barrier. We used the robust asymmetrical before-after-control-impact (BACI) design to evaluate changes in population size for fishery target species four years after designation. Data on fish abundance and size were collected within randomly placed belt transects and roving surveys. Permutational multivariate analysis of variance (PERMANOVA) and similarity percentages (SIMPER) were used to detect changes in the coral reef fish assemblage and structure. Responses in abundance and biomass were calculated at different levels of the assemblage grouped by body size or ontogenetic stage. Additionally, univariate models provided insight on the magnitude and direction of NTZ effects. Results indicate significant increases in locations both open and closed to fishing, predominantly in the abundance of small-sized species and early life stages suggesting a recruitment signal. Significant distinctive performance within two locations was observed, with one showing a higher contribution of medium and large-sized species over time. Mona Island's MPA is apparently achieving its goals of fish stock restoration despite its isolation, although more time, enforcement and monitoring are essential to confirm these trends. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.",,01-Oct,,,150,,Fish.

Here, a systematic conservation planning framework highlighted key carnivore landscapes, conservation research and intervention priorities, and gaps in current knowledge of Bornean carnivore ecology. All single-species predictive habitat suitability index (HSI) models presented in this issue (20 species, comprising all carnivores on Borneo except otters [Lutrinae] and sun bear Helarctos malayanus) were standardised by converting HSI values into binary maps, and combined to derive species richness maps to discuss and delineate areas of conservation priority. The highest predicted carnivore species richness (defined here as the sum of the binary threshold maps), corresponds to interior lowland, upland and lower montane forest, whereas areas with lowest predicted species richness correspond to coastal lowlands already largely converted to oil palm plantations. The 12 proposed areas of conservation importance for carnivores focus on large landscapes and connectivity between subunits, many centred around the tri-national Heart of Borneo initiative, with additional areas for wetland/lowland species. A large proportion of these proposed conservation landscapes are being exploited for commercial purposes (e.g., logging concessions) and would, therefore, improve in conservation value if their management became more sustainable. The most important research priorities for Bornean carnivores are species resilience to altered and fragmented landscapes; under-surveyed regions; and the effects and relative intensity of hunting across the island. The most pressing conservation interventions include conservation research on the most threatened Bornean carnivores: the Bornean ferret badger Melogale everetti and Hose's civet Diplogale hosei (highland endemics), and the flat-headed cat Prionailurus planiceps and otter civet Cynogale bennettii (wetland specialists). Targeted conservation research and integration of research findings into decision-making, maintaining and restoring connectivity, raising awareness and improving enforcement and governance are also important conservation interventions. Although more resources are needed for conservation and research, the joint effort of scientists, conservationists and government authorities in the identification of key carnivore landscapes, research priorities and conservation issues which this study presents raises hope that more targeted conservation efforts for Bornean carnivores will follow in the future.",,186-217,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000393214300024,,,,,,,Borneo Carnivore Symposium; Brunei; conservation priorities; CONTAMINATION; DIVERSITY; FOREST; habitat suitability index; Heart of Borneo; Indonesia; KALIMANTAN; LEOPARD NEOFELIS-DIARDI; Malaysia; NATIONAL PROTECTED AREA; PREDICTED DISTRIBUTION; SABAH; SAFEGUARD; species distribution modelling; survey gaps; VIVERRIDAE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, area-based conservation targets are complex to identify in a 3-dimensional (3D) ocean where deep-sea features such as seamounts have been seldom studied mostly due to challenging methodologies to implement at great depths. Yet, the use of emerging technologies, such as environmental DNA combined with modern modeling frameworks, could help address the problem. We collected environmental DNA, echosounder acoustic, and video data at 15 seamounts and deep island slopes across the Coral Sea. We modeled 7 fish community metrics and the abundances of 45 individual species and molecular operational taxonomic units (MOTUs) in benthic and pelagic waters (down to 600-m deep) with boosted regression trees and generalized joint attribute models to describe biodiversity on seamounts and deep slopes and identify 3D protection solutions for achieving the CBD area target in New Caledonia (1.4 million km2). We prioritized the identified conservation units in a 3D space, based on various biodiversity targets, to meet the goal of protecting at least 30% of the spatial domain, with a focus on areas with high biodiversity. The relationship between biodiversity protection targets and the spatial area protected by the solution was linear. The scenario protecting 30% of each biodiversity metric preserved almost 30% of the considered spatial domain and accounted for the 3D distribution of biodiversity. Our study paves the way for the use of combined data collection methodologies to improve biodiversity estimates in 3D structured marine environments for the selection of conservation areas and for the use of biodiversity targets to achieve area-based international targets. © 2024 The Author(s).

Since the establishment of artificial reefs in the 1970s, the application, techniques and corresponding policy directives for reef restoration have evolved over time, and restoration has recently generated significant interest and investments from donors and government agencies. As the Philippines does not have a policy framework to support effective and sustainable practices for the use of different coral restoration techniques, the increase and unregulated use of restoration may result in unintended consequences and pose potential challenges to coastal management. To address this gap, we conducted a review of existing coral restoration policies, programs and projects across the country, with a focus on social, economic and governance aspects. The study collated existing published literature and unpublished information on coral restoration in the country, and conducted key informant interviews. The results show that coral restoration continues to increase, and that existing guidelines on coral restoration are poorly implemented and not widely understood among practitioners. While coral restoration projects reported ecological benefits, socio-economic impacts are limited.

Moreover, connectivity is a guiding principle in marine conservation planning, particularly for spatial prioritization and for the design of networks of marine protected areas. We estimated the functional seascape connectivity of L. pertusa in the Mediterranean Sea and provide a framework for prioritizing habitat areas for the species conservation. These goals were achieved by simulating transport and potential dispersal of virtual larvae using biophysical modeling and assessing habitat availability based on the suitability and spatial arrangement of the seascape and inter-annual climatological variability. Habitat availability was estimated using a network analysis and accounting for the attributes of habitat areas (i.e., size and quality). The connectivity among Mediterranean ecoregions was weak and an increase in the frequency of climate-driven events (e.g., dense shelf water cascading) may worsen this scenario. However, the potential exchange of larvae between patches within the same ecoregion was high, favoring populations resilience to local disturbances. The analysis of habitat availability allowed identifying important habitat areas for the connectivity of the L. pertusa including the Gulf of Lion, the Apulian and Sicily Island continental margin. Some of the habitat areas identified as important for the connectivity of the L. pertusa are exposed to intense anthropogenic pressures, that may act synergistically with climate change imposing greater challenges to species conservation. These habitat areas may be prioritized in future management and conservation actions targeting L. pertusa. © 2023 Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography.",,217-231,,2,69,,Limnol.

This syndrome is a hormonal imbalance induced by tributyltin (TBT) which have been used in antifouling paints formulation. The present study aimed to perform an integrated environmental assessment of imposex and butyltin (BT) contamination using surface sediments and tissues of Thaisella chocolata (an edible gastropod) from northern Chile. The results showed imposex incidence in 11 out of 12 sites. In the most contaminated sites, which are areas under the influence of maritime activities, and also used for fishing and aquaculture, RPLI were over 60 and VDSI over 4 (high incidence of sterile females). Exceptionally high contamination levels and evidences of fresh inputs of tributyltin (TBT) were detected along the studied area. TBT levels above 300 and 90 ng Sn g? 1, respectively, were recorded in sediments and edible gastropod tissues of 6 sites. Thus, a daily ingestion of 90 to 173 g of T. chocolata foot (4 to 8 organisms) from the most contaminated sites will certainly lead to the consumption of BT exceeding the tolerable daily intake recommended by European Food Safety Authority. It is reasonable to consider that human risk is even higher if daily consumption of additional seafood is considered. Moreover, some contaminated sites were located within the marine reserve “Isla Grande Atacama”, indicating that even marine protected areas are under the influence of TBT contamination. These findings suggest that current levels of TBT in the studied area are sufficient to induce harmful effects on the environment and constitutes a potential threat to seafood consumers. Thus, national regulatory actions toward environmental protection and food safety of local populations are still mandatory, even after 8 years of the TBT global ban by IMO. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.",,209-217,,,595,,Sci.

Collaborative decision analysis has informed real-world conservation decisions in non-transboundary contexts. Here we evaluate for the first time its application in two transboundary regions in Europe: Julian Alps along the Italian–Slovenian border, and the Bavarian–Bohemian Forest along the German–Czech border. A collaborative-decision analysis (CDA) led to bilateral agreements about multi-year resource allocations by protected areas (PAs) in these two transboundary regions of Europe. Steps included problem framing, formulation of objectives, consideration of external factors, alternative strategies, consequences and tradeoffs, sensitivity analysis, and recommendations. In collaboration with stakeholders we developed Bayesian decision networks to structure and support problem solving in two cases focused on bear management and a joint communication strategy. Expected stakeholder satisfaction differed by >10% when comparing allocation options. Although the preferred option in one case depended on the set of stakeholder inputs used for the analysis, expected value of perfect information was low (i.e., ?5% increase in expected stakeholder satisfaction; possible range: 0–100%). Decision making was successfully supported in both case studies. Each step of the CDA process was informative and useful for the decision makers, and the expected challenges with transboundary conservation were overcome in both cases. For example, to overcome the language barrier we used translation software so that the respective management plans were understandable for all participants. We believe the process can be used in other transboundary contexts around the globe to ensure lasting engagement and commitment to coordinated conservation and management on both sides of the border. © 2019 The Authors",,282-296,,,83,,Land Use Policy,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,ADAPTIVE MANAGEMENT; Alps; Bayesian belief network; bear; border region; Brown bear; CHALLENGES; conservation management; decision making; Eastern Alps; Elicitation; External communication; FRAMEWORK; IMPLEMENTATION; Julian Alps; KNOWLEDGE; NATIONAL-PARK; protected area; Protected area management; PROTECTED AREAS; regional planning; stakeholder; Structured decision-making; SYSTEMS; transboundary cooperation; UNCERTAINTY; Ursus arctos,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Implementing regional-scale conservation brings great challenges, and learning how to overcome these challenges is essential for maintaining biodiversity (i.e., richness and evenness of biological communities) and ecosystem functions and services across scales and borders in the face of system change. We administered an online survey to examine factors potentially driving perspectives of protected-area (PA) managers regarding coordination with neighboring PAs and other stakeholders (i.e., stakeholder coordination) for conserving biodiversity and ecosystem services during the next decade within diverse regions across Europe. Although >70% (n = 58) of responding PA managers indicated that climate change and invasive species are relevant for their PAs, they gave <50% probability that these threats could be mitigated through stakeholder coordination. They thought there was a >60% probability (n = 85) that stakeholder coordination would take place with the aim to improve conservation outcomes. Consistent with the foundation on which many European PAs were established, managers viewed maintaining or enhancing biodiversity as the most important (>70%; n = 61) expected benefit. Other benefits included maintaining or enhancing human resources and environmental education (range of Bayesian credibility intervals [CIs] 57–93%). They thought the main barriers to stakeholder coordination were the lack of human and economic resources (CI 59–67% chance of hindering; n = 64) followed by communication and interstakeholder differences in political structures and laws (CI 51–64% probability of hindering). European policies and strategies that address these hindering factors could be particularly effective means of enabling implementation of green infrastructure networks in which PAs are the nodes. © 2017 Society for Conservation Biology",,98-108,,1,32,,Conserv.

They have in common that their main purpose is the conservation of the marine environment and the balancing of different ocean uses. Although marine protected areas (MPAs) are a widely discussed concept and part of ABMTs, the latter term goes further. This is exemplified by the Agreement under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea on the Conservation and Sustainable Use of Marine Biological Diversity of Areas beyond National Jurisdiction (BBNJ Agreement) that includes a definition of ABMTs. Many such tools address specific human ocean uses in a geographically defined area, for example, shipping, fisheries, seabed mining, and other resource extraction. Others are designed to be cross-sectoral and pursue a broader objective such as balancing (all) relevant uses as part of marine spatial planning or more comprehensive protection of biological diversity. This chapter focuses upon international legal agreements that employ area-based management which addresses or potentially affects shipping to explore and compare their scope and purposes. This includes treaties with a global scope (e.g., UNCLOS, MARPOL, SOLAS, BBNJ Agreement) but also some regionally limited instruments (e.g., regional fisheries agreements). One of the leading questions is to what extent the international legal framework on ABMTs is set up in a coherent manner or whether—due to different purposes of ABMTs from different agreements and disconnection—it places burdens upon the shipping sector that are not necessarily justified to enhance sustainability in ocean governance. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2024.",,69-90,,,,,,,,,,,Springer Nature,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Area-Based Management of Shipping: Canadian and Comparative Perspectives DOI: 10.1007/978-3-031-60053-1_4,,,,Area-based management tools; IMO; MPAs; Shipping; UNCLOS; Vessel-based pollution,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Although this goal is far from being reached, the OSPAR Convention may serve as an example illustrating the efforts made on a regional level for the North-East Atlantic. However, these efforts to effectively protect the marine environment are subject to limitations under the Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). Likewise., the OSPAR Convention itself restricts the scope of such protected areas. The OSPAR Convention does not adequately cover all human uses of the oceans that may interfere with a protected area, and it lacks opportunities for internationalised enforcement measures. Consequently, the responsibility for effective conservation measures under the OSPAR model ultimately remains with individual Contracting Parties, i.e. their commitment to set stricter standards and to agree on their enforcement. Nevertheless, 'soft' obligations such as reporting duties are suitable for collecting data on the need for protection and utilisation of the MPAs. Additionally., cooperation with regional fisheries management bodies allows for better protection of the living resources in these areas. Finally, OSPAR MPAs can draw attention to particularly vulnerable ecosystems and promote conservation standards and measures such as those developed under the auspices of the FAO. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,155-166,,,49,,Mar.

However, many social-ecological systems depend on human interventions to maintain characteristics of biological diversity. Therefore, reduced use or full abandonment of such systems can diminish rather than enhance biological diversity and its related cultural diversity (biocultural diversity). We link the definition of “underuse” with the extinction rate used in the planetary boundaries framework to support a more objective use of the term. We execute a structured cross-continental review of underuse in social-ecological systems of regions that contain more affluent countries to frame a global research agenda on underuse. Our working approach delineates causes, consequences, and strategies concerning underuse. Based on this comparative review, we identify causes of underuse that are similar in different continents, including globalization, and demographic or structural change in Europe, Japan and Oceania. Conservation paradigms emphasizing wilderness ideals in policies are characteristic of underuse in North America, whereas post-socialist transformation processes characterize underuse in Eastern Europe. Land abandonment and de-intensification of use are a common result, particularly in marginal and protected areas. Consequences of the loss of biocultural diversity include the loss of ecosystem services, traditional knowledge, or landscape amenities. We identified a pervasive gap in transcontinental comparative research that stymies the development of effective strategies to reduce underuse of biological diversity and thereby maintain related cultural diversity. We advocate for a global research agenda on governance approaches that address the challenges of underuse. Within this agenda, we emphasize the need for an international cross-case synthesis and a trans-continental mapping of state and civil society-based interventions and co-management approaches to re-establish humans as parts of ecological systems. Such comparative work on best practice cases in a real-world context should enhance adaptive management of biocultural diversity and prevent extinction caused by underuse. Thus, this innovative connection between underuse and the planetary boundary extinction rate, along with our new global research agenda on underuse, should initiate much needed support for policy makers and natural resource managers who must decide on appropriate types and levels of human intervention to implement, both inside and outside of protected areas. © 2017",,57-64,,,72,,Land Use Policy,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,abandoned land; anthropogenic effect; Biocultural diversity; biodiversity; Biodiversity; comparative study; Conservation; ecosystem service; Ecosystem services; environmental management; Europe; governance approach; Human-intervention; Japan; nature conservation; North America; Social-ecological systems; Underuse,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We aim to demonstrate that gap analysis may be extended to encompass both in situ and ex situ genetic diversity conservation strategies. Location: Global, with exemplar case study from sub-Saharan Africa. Methods: An extended methodology of gap analysis is proposed that involves the following steps: (1) circumscription of target taxon and target area; (2) assessment of natural diversity through a review of intrinsic taxonomic, genetic and ecogeographical diversity combined with threat assessment; (3) assessment of current complementary in situ and ex situ conservation strategies; and (4) reformulation of the conservation strategy through analysis of the differences between the pattern of natural, intrinsic diversity and the elements of that diversity already effectively represented by existing in situ and ex situ conservation actions. Results: To illustrate the gap analysis approach proposed, the methodology was applied to the conservation of African Vigna species (cowpea Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. and its wild relatives) and indicated: (1) genetic reserves should be established at the southern tip of Lake Tanganyika, the coastal area of Sierra Leone and between Lake Victoria and the other Great Lakes, and (2) 14 taxa and several countries should be targeted for further seed collection. Main conclusions: The robust nature of the extended methodology for gap analysis has been demonstrated and indicates that its scope as an effective conservation tool may be expanded to fully address the need for a more comprehensive and complementary conservation strategy that encompasses both in situ and ex situ applications. However, it should be stressed that the methodology is applicable for any form of biodiversity (wild or cultivated), where the conservation of genetic diversity is the prime goal. © 2008 The Authors.",,1018-1030,,6,14,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Africa; Agrobiodiversity; biodiversity; conservation genetics; crop wild relative; Crop wild relative; DIVERSITY; ex situ conservation; Ex situ conservation; gap analysis; Gap analysis; genetic conservation; Genetic conservation; genetic variation; herb; in situ conservation; In situ conservation; protected area; protected areas; Protected areas; species conservation; Sub-Saharan Africa; Vigna; Vigna unguiculata; WILD; wild population,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Area-based conservation efforts, which include both protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures, are likely to extend and diversify. However, persistent shortfalls in ecological representation and management effectiveness diminish the potential role of area-based conservation in stemming biodiversity loss. Here we show how the expansion of protected areas by national governments since 2010 has had limited success in increasing the coverage across different elements of biodiversity (ecoregions, 12,056 threatened species, ‘Key Biodiversity Areas’ and wilderness areas) and ecosystem services (productive fisheries, and carbon services on land and sea). To be more successful after 2020, area-based conservation must contribute more effectively to meeting global biodiversity goals—ranging from preventing extinctions to retaining the most-intact ecosystems—and must better collaborate with the many Indigenous peoples, community groups and private initiatives that are central to the successful conservation of biodiversity. The long-term success of area-based conservation requires parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity to secure adequate financing, plan for climate change and make biodiversity conservation a far stronger part of land, water and sea management policies. © 2020, Springer Nature Limited.",,217-227,,7828,586,,Nature,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Nature Research,,,,"animal; Animals; Aquatic Organisms; aquatic species; area based conservation; biodiversity; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION; carbon; carbon sequestration; climate change; CLIMATE-CHANGE; conservation biology; conservation management; Conservation of Natural Resources; conservation status; ecology; Ecology; economics; ecosystem; ecosystem service; environmental policy; environmental protection; EXPORT; fishery; geographic mapping; Geographic Mapping; government; history; History, 21st Century; human; indigenous people; LAND; MANAGEMENT; marine environment; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; outcome assessment; OUTCOMES; PERFORMANCE; priority journal; protected area; RESERVES; Review; sea; species conservation; TARGET 11; trend study; twenty first century; water management; wilderness; Wilderness",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Despite the sharp increase in the number of marine protected areas (MPAs) with large pelagic areas, or pelagic marine protected areas (PMPAs), little literature exists regarding on-theground approaches to their management, in large part due to the relative newness of many largescale PMPAs. Here we attempt to highlight pragmatic solutions or recommendations for the management challenges of PMPAs, particularly regarding setting objectives, monitoring and compliance, drawing from examples of existing PMPA management when possible. We suggest using techniques such as structured decision making and multi-criteria decision analysis for setting management objectives and actions and reducing conflict that will be inherent across the multi-agency, multi-objective landscape of PMPAs. We suggest cost-effective strategies for monitoring of complex pelagic interactions and far-ranging species, including tiers of monitoring importance linked to funding levels, and highlight means of determining when monitoring is a necessity. Finally, we highlight techniques to increase compliance within PMPAs, such as participatory monitoring. We focus on enforcement across the large scales of PMPAs, such as setting and effectively integrating biological and enforcement priorities, and implementing cost-effective enforcement, particularly in remote regions, using techniques such as international enforcement partnerships and enforcement technologies. Our goal is not to give a complete framework for PMPA management, but to collate existing lessons and provide a baseline for managers to build from, and to provide insight for scientists looking to focus research efforts to aid in management of protected pelagic ecosystems. © The authors 2014.",,59-74,,1,26,,Endanger.

Here, we demonstrated that the network fails to adequately cover the marine environment and meet the conservation target of 10% set by the Convention on Biological Diversity. The relative percentage of marine surface cover varies significantly among member states. Interestingly, the relative cover of protected seascape was significantly lower for member states with larger exclusive economic zones. Our analyses demonstrated that the vast majority (93%) of the Natura 2000 sites that cover marine waters include both a terrestrial and a marine component. As a result, the majority of the protected surfaces is adjacent to the coastline, and decreases offshore; only 20% of Natura marine PAs is at depths >200 m. The lack of systematic planning processes is further reflected by the great variability in the distances among protected sites and the limited number of shared Natura sites among member states. Moreover, <40% of the marine sites have management plans, indicating the absence of active, or limited management in most sites.

All threats to biodiversity are supposed to be reported in sufficient detail through that database. We compared the reported threats by ‘invasive non-native species’ in the Natura 2000 database with the actual cumulative impacts of invasive alien species on marine habitats in the Mediterranean using the CIMPAL index (Cumulative IMPacts of invasive ALien species). CIMPAL estimates cumulative impact scores on the basis of the distributions of invasive species and ecosystems, and both the documented magnitude of negative ecological impacts and the strength of such evidence. We showed that the threat of invasive alien species is substantially under-reported in the official documentation. Specifically, among the 1455 marine sites of the network, no threat was officially reported in one third of the sites. The threat of biological invasions was only reported in 154 sites, despite negative impacts by invasive alien species being predicted for 98% of all sites when using CIMPAL. In fact, in the subgroup of sites where no threats have been officially reported, the impacts predicted by CIMPAL were the highest. Such, inadequate and insufficient reporting of threats in the Mediterranean marine Natura 2000 sites presents a significant obstacle to the flow of accurate information needed to support conservation policies and marine management. © 2018",,208-212,,,225,,Biol.

However, visitors generally select destinations where personal security and safety are guaranteed. Information about potential threats (natural hazards or terrorism) for global destinations is mainly released to the public via national safety travel advice and via global reports on disaster and terrorism risk indices. This study aimed to evaluate the extent to which different types of national security risks occur in countries that contain marine protected areas (MPAs) globally, towards highlighting the importance of incorporating these security issues into conservation management plans. Countries hosting most global marine protected areas (MPAs) have a low to medium risk of natural disasters. However, the analyses demonstrated that about one-third of MPAs are hosted by countries with lower income economies, which are also shown to have a lower capacity to cope with natural disasters. Of interest, countries with high terrorism risk host only a small fraction of global MPAs, with lower income countries being subjected to significantly higher terrorism risk than higher income countries. Overall, the results show that the chance of a country with an MPA being subject to a national security risk is generally low. However, countries with a higher risk of violence and natural disaster have lower coping capacities and weaker economies. Thus, MPAs in such countries should incorporate the risk of national security issues into their management schemes, particularly when visitor revenue is incorporated into wildlife protection and the employment of locals.

The management plan of this PNA includes the conservation of mangrove ecosystems, seagrasses and coral reefs, terrestrial species, migratory birds, and marine species of ecological interest (turtle, manatee), among others of commercial interest (fish and lobsters, queen conch, sponges, and oysters). Authorities must be attentive to avoid conflicts of interest between conservationists and fishers, so experimental oyster and sponge aquaculture farms have been established. Native population recognizes that protecting the existing natural resources guarantees a sustainable source of employment, food, and family welfare. In contrast, approximately 700 fishers who live nearby could have a negative impact on the PNA because their families depend economically on extracting marine resources.

Yet, spatial priorities for marine conservation are still often based solely on biodiversity hotspots, species richness, and/or cumulative threat maps. This study aims to provide an approach for including cost when planning large-scale Marine Protected Area (MPA) networks that span multiple countries. Here, we explore the incorporation of cost in the complex setting of the Mediterranean Sea. In order to include cost in conservation prioritization, we developed surrogates that account for revenue from multiple marine sectors: commercial fishing, noncommercial fishing, and aquaculture. Such revenue can translate into an opportunity cost for the implementation of an MPA network. Using the software Marxan, we set conservation targets to protect 10% of the distribution of 77 threatened marine species in the Mediterranean Sea. We compared nine scenarios of opportunity cost by calculating the area and cost required to meet our targets. We further compared our spatial priorities with those that are considered consensus areas by several proposed prioritization schemes in the Mediterranean Sea, none of which explicitly considers cost. We found that for less than 10% of the Sea's area, our conservation targets can be achieved while incurring opportunity costs of less than 1%. In marine systems, we reveal that area is a poor cost surrogate and that the most effective surrogates are those that account for multiple sectors or stakeholders. Furthermore, our results indicate that including cost can greatly influence the selection of spatial priorities for marine conservation of threatened species. Although there are known limitations in multinational large-scale planning, attempting to devise more systematic and rigorous planning methods is especially critical given that collaborative conservation action is on the rise and global financial crisis restricts conservation investments. © 2014 by the Ecological Society of America.",,1115-1130,,5,24,,Ecol.

However, few studies have assessed the costs and benefits incurred by taking collaborative action. One of the most complex marine regions in the world is the Mediterranean Sea biodiversity hotspot. The sea is shared by over 20 countries across three continents with a vast array of socio-economic and political backgrounds. We aimed to examine how collaboration between countries of the Mediterranean Sea affects conservation plans when costs and threats are considered. Location: The Mediterranean Sea. Methods: We compared three collaboration scenarios to test the efficiencies of coordinated marine conservation efforts: full coordination between Mediterranean countries, partial coordination within continents and no coordination where countries act in isolation. To do so, we developed four basin-wide surrogates for commercial and recreational fishing effort in the Mediterranean Sea. Using a systematic decision support tool (Marxan), we minimized the opportunity costs while meeting a suite of biodiversity targets. Results: We discovered that to reach the same conservation targets, a plan where all the countries of the Mediterranean Sea collaborate can save over two-thirds of the cost of a plan where each country acts independently. The benefits of multinational collaboration are surprisingly unequal between countries. Main conclusions: This approach, which incorporates biodiversity, costs and collaboration into a systematic conservation plan, can help deliver efficient conservation outcomes when planning spatially explicit actions within marine environments shared by many countries. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,1380-1393,,11,19,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,biodiversity; conservation planning; Cross-country collaboration; Efficient conservation; fishing effort; international cooperation; marine park; Mediterranean Sea; Opportunity cost; prioritization; Spatial prioritization; Threatened vertebrates; Vertebrata,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Future sea level rise (SLR) is expected to alter the spatial configuration of coastal habitats and their services. Ensuring conservation efforts are in optimal areas can be achieved using systematic conservation planning, yet plans rarely address multiple goals and uncertainties. We developed and applied a novel multi-ecosystem approach for planning the conservation of coastal ecosystems under future SLR scenarios. Decision support tool Marxan was used to determine priority areas that incorporate habitat connectivity, SLR modelling scenarios and feasibility for conservation in urbanised Moreton Bay in Queensland, Australia, as a case-study. We found that planning based on present conditions will not adequately capture conservation priorities for the future, and has associated financial consequences. Priority conservation areas of Moreton Bay are not well aligned with current protected areas (<35%), with further misalignment for future scenarios. This study highlights the importance of a multi-ecosystem approach for protecting coastal habitats as well as leveraging the current management system.

Knowledge of the extent and consequences of this disturbance is limited because large-scale distributions of seabed fauna are not well known. We map faunal distributions in the Australian Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) and quantify the proportion of their abundance that occurs in areas 1) that are directly trawled and 2) where legislation permanently prohibits trawling—defined as percentage exposure or protection, respectively. Our approach includes developing a method that integrates data from disparate seabed surveys to spatially expand predicted benthos distributions. Location: Australia. Methods: We collate data from 18 seabed surveys to map the distribution of seabed invertebrates (benthos) in nine regions. Our approach combines data from multiple surveys, groups taxa within taxonomic classes and uses Random Forests to predict spatial abundance distributions of benthos groups from environmental variables. Exposure and protection of benthos groups were quantified by mapping their predicted abundance distributions against the footprint of trawling and legislated boundaries of marine reserves and fishery closures. Results: Trawling is currently prohibited from more area of Australia's EEZ (58%) than is trawled (<5%). Across 134 benthos groups, 96% had greater protection of abundance than exposure. The mean trawl exposure of benthos-group abundance was 7%, compared to mean protection of 38%, whereas the mean abundance neither trawled nor protected was 55%. Fishery closures covered 19% less study area than marine reserves, but overlapped with a higher proportion (5% more) of benthos-group abundance. Main Conclusions: This study provides the most extensive quantitative assessment of the current exposure of Australia's benthos to trawling. Further, it highlights the contribution of fishery closures to marine conservation. These results help identify regions and taxa that are at greatest potential risk from trawling and support managers to achieve balance between conservation and sustainable industries in marine ecosystems. © 2017 The Authors.

This article makes a first analysis of this process on the basis of two groups of actors: the fishermen and the associative movements. While the objective of the Park is to build a consensus on the need to preserve the marine environment, associating tools for a joint management in the process, the dialogue in fact split up these groups of actors. Both types of actors were de facto excluded from the dialogue process; the fishermen because of poor communication which marginalized them and the integration of their knowledge in the discussion and the associations because of a substitution of their skills by those of the State services. The point of view of legislative and political actors consolidates this analysis; it shows the limits of these approaches towards a normalized participation process and the necessity of a more effective integration of the social and productive sectors for the construction of a territorial project. The fragmentation of the actors involved increases de facto the vulnerability of the governance of these marine and littoral zones, and runs counter to the protection and preservation objectives. © NSS-Dialogues, 2019.",,310-326,,3,27,,Nat.

Most of populations occur along the Thyrrhenian coast, particularly southern Tuscany, and Latium, where the most high density was observed. Other populations, probably autochthonous, can be found in Campania and in Calabria. Along the Adriatic coast, the biggest populations can be found in Apulia, Abruzzo and Molise. The species also occurs in some sites of Sicily and Sardinia. In the northern Italy, the Hermann's tortoise has almost disappeared and can be found only in the Po River Delta, such as the Bosco della Mesola. Sites are mainly located in the coasts but, in some cases, also in the inland up to mountains slopes. Further sightings in other areas concerned isolated individuals probably released from captivity. In the present paper the results of a population study carried out in the Bosco della Mesola Reserve, are discussed. The population structure is dominated by adults over 20 years old. The home range size was larger for the females than for the males. Longer daily distances were covered in spring and summer, while movements were greatly reduced during post and prehibernation periods. Conservation strategies should be based on: (1) verifying the taxonomic status and the origin of the Italian population through the analysis of genetic distances; (2) monitoring all the major populations in order to assess their status and dynamics; (3) establishing new protected areas in Mediterranean coastal habitats, to protect autochthonous populations and increase population density in case of low numbers. In order to increase the reproductive success of the Hermann's tortoise within protected areas, enclosures should be set out where to raise pairs of breeders. Young turtles should be released in core areas of the reserves, without anthropic disturbance. Moreover, the sites where females laid eggs should be fenced by wire net, in order to prevent predation up to the hatching. The goal is to create a pool of specimens useful for reintroduction and restocking. © 2004 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.",,97-102,,,71,,Ital. J.

Remote sensing now provides decades of global observations at a variety of spatio-temporal scales and a litany of data products to guide comprehensive measures for climate action, and aquatic and terrestrial biota preservation. Protected areas, such as national parks and wildlife preserves, represent largely untapped resources for both applying robust conservation measures and testing ambitious new approaches to sustainable development that could jumpstart the much-needed adoption of strategies to efficiently pursue global sustainability. This review summarizes recent demonstrated utilities of remotely sensed data applied to protected areas for research related to SDG goals 13, 14, and 15: “Climate Action”, “Life below Water”, and “Life on Land”. We identify successful uses of such data for each SDG, identify areas for improvement, and provide recommendations from the literature on how to expand what others have done to achieve lofty goals with global impact. We demonstrate that remote sensing provides a valuable tool for achieving SDGs as it facilitates monitoring vegetation health, water quality and condition, and climate variables at large spatial and fine temporal scales, while also evaluating the effectiveness of management and conservation practices. Issues remain, however, in that there is currently no reference from which to relate goal progress to human livelihoods.

Local coral and fish taxonomic richness and coral community susceptibility to stress were normalized to partially account for common and heterogenous disturbances to coral cover and fish biomass. Residuals of these three response variables were evaluated for local geographic patterns and specific relationships with 21 environmental variables using machine learning methods. Results: Richness was highly variable at local geographies and had a double-peaked shape with latitudes. Thirteen of the 21 examined variables were selected and indicated complex, spatially heterogeneous and weak cumulative predictive relationships with specific environmental and human influences. For example, each selected variable contributed 7% to 25% of the variance but with different relationships for the three responses. Coral fish richness and coral community susceptibility correlations were positive but weak and therefore produced different local spatial patterns. Nevertheless, these spatial patterns exhibited some coarse-scale similarities indicating locations with shared positive community attributes and potential climate refugia. Shared richness variables included depth and wave energy, temperature variables of SST skewness, excess heat and rate of rise. Human influences of distance to shore, human populations and cities were also selected for richness and community susceptibility responses. Main Conclusions: Planning to include local stress and richness patterns variability could contribute to species persistence. From these specific data, sites in the Pemba Channel between the Tanzanian mainland and Pemba Island, and northern Mozambique and Madagascar fit refugia characteristics. © 2023 The Author.

These include the number of protected areas, the percent coverage of nearshore areas, frequency or area relative to other ecosystems, and a diverse set of possible but often poorly evaluated impacts. Based on the emerging studies of the geographic distribution of reef fish biomass, I used two metrics of travel time to human settlements (>4-h) and major markets (>9-h) to estimate the percentage of passive conservation as remote wilderness in 99 tropical ecoregions. Randomly selecting >25,000 tropical coral reefs from a current coral reef map, 2.5% of the random reefs were classified as active conservation or high compliance marine reserves. Passive conservation was considerably larger at ~12% using the >4-h and 48% by the >9-h travel time thresholds. Marine reserves were more frequently located >4-h than <4-h travel times, indicating their inadequate usage as fisheries management tools. Therefore, travel distance or passive conservation and possibly fishing restrictions are the main mechanisms protecting coral reefs. Evaluating the distribution of an active plus passive conservation threshold of 30% protection indicated that 35% of the ecoregions did not achieve this level while 15% had a 100% deficit. When human dependency on fisheries was evaluated, most of Africa, Asia, and Caribbean ecoregions lacked significant refuge and therefore vulnerable to fisheries collapses. Estimates of passive plus active conservation deficits provides a path to prioritize actions to increase active conservation and restricting human and market demands. © 2020",,,,,119,,Mar.

Here, I evaluated 9 biomass-weighted fish life history trait metrics and 4 categories of biomass (total, fishable, target, and non-target) using a large single-observer census of fish communities in 449 Indian Ocean reef sites. Comparisons and changes across a full gradient of fishing effort were made and fish traits compared between long unfished benchmark reefs (n = 62 sites) and reefs with variable fishing effort (n = 387 sites). I hypothesized that traits would differ between fished and the unfished benchmark sites and, as biomass increased, asymptotically approach benchmark values. Most weighted traits responded as predicted but variation among biomass categories, traits, and their responses to fishing and biomass was variable. For most traits, predictions for the total and fishable biomass fit better than target and non-target categories. Further, length-based traits were among the best indicator of status where as some commonly used traits like age-at-first maturity and trophic level were poor or responded contrary to predictions. Using multivariate analyses of all 9 traits did not strongly increase the predictive ability. Consequently, I suggest that geography, a large range in fishing pressure, and the inherent complexity of reef fish communities explains the variability better than the trait-specificity. Nevertheless, convergence between biomass and length-based traits occurred and suggest trait stability at an unfished biomass ?1000–1200 kg/ha. Biomass and length-based traits may have the broadest use in estimating sustainable fishing while other traits are unlikely to have global benchmarks. Thus, future research will need to account for spatial variation in environmental forces and fishing disturbances when using life-history traits. The practice of focusing on temporal responses to disturbances in comparable environments is recommended for impact studies. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,133-145,,,96,,Ecol.

In contrast, the number of species at a site is often influenced by site-specific factors, including abundance, benthic cover and other habitat features (depth and exposure), fishing pressure and resource management. Conservation policies and programmes often prioritize geographies or specific management systems within specific geographies. I evaluate the variance in number of species at the site scale and estimate the contributions of fishing pressure, local habitat factors and regional geography to local diversity. Location: Coral reefs of the south-western Indian Ocean (SWIO). Methods: Site-level species richness data from an extensive field sample of common coral reef fish at 266 sites in seven SWIO countries were analysed to create four species richness metrics to evaluate the effects of local site, geography and management. Results: The local number of species was strongly predicted by an asymptotic relationship with fish biomass, followed by habitat variables, and lastly by the geographical positions of latitude and longitude. A species richness centre or 'hotspot' was found between Madagascar and the African coastline, but the variance attributable to geography when biomass and habitat effects were removed was small. Evaluation of the number of species in five existing fisheries management categories indicated that differences were chiefly influenced by biomass rather than habitat factors. Main conclusions: Although the centre of species richness may indicate a climate refugium that should be considered in conservation prioritization, this diversity-centre effect can weaken if habitat and biomass features are reduced by climate disturbances and fishing. Consequently, the highest priority for conserving local numbers of reef fish species is to maintain biomass above the c. 600 kg ha-1 threshold found in this study. © 2015 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,2414-2426,,12,42,,J.

Weak or missing management institutions, a lack of research capacity, and the complex nature of these ecosystems have heralded a call for ecosystem-based management approaches. However, ecosystem-based management of coral reef fisheries has proved challenging due to the multispecies nature of catches and the diversity of fish functional roles. We used data on fish communities collected from 233 individual sites in 9 western Indian Ocean countries to evaluate changes in the site's functional composition and associated life-history characteristics along a large range of fish biomass. As biomass increased along this range, fish were larger and grew and matured more slowly while the abundance of scraping and predatory species increased. The greatest changes in functional composition occurred below relatively low standing stock biomass (<600 kg/ha); abundances of piscivores, apex predators, and scraping herbivores were low at very light levels of fishing. This suggests potential trade-offs in ecosystem function and estimated yields for different management systems. Current fishing gear and area restrictions are not achieving conservation targets (proposed here as standing stock biomass of 1150 kg/ha) and result in losses of life history and ecological functions. Fish in reefs where destructive gears were restricted typically had very similar biomass and functions to young and low compliance closures. This indicates the potentially important role of fisheries restrictions in providing some gains in biomass and associated ecological functions when fully protected area enforcement potential is limited and likely to fail. Our results indicate that biomass alone can provide broad ecosystem-based fisheries management targets that can be easily applied even where research capacity and information is limited. Of particular value, is our finding that current management tools may be used to reach key ecosystem-based management targets, enabling ecosystem-based management in many socioeconomic contexts. © 2014 Society for Conservation Biology.",,409-417,,2,29,,Conserv.

This study develops critical reference points for sustainable management by using a large empirical dataset on the coral reefs of the western Indian Ocean to investigate associations between levels of target fish biomass (as an indicator of fishing intensity) and eight metrics of ecosystem state. These eight ecological metrics each exhibited specific thresholds along a continuum of fishable biomass ranging from heavily fished sites to old fisheries closures. Three thresholds lay above and five below a hypothesized window of fishable biomass expected to produce a maximum multispecies sustainable yield (B MMSY). Evaluating three management systems in nine countries, we found that unregulated fisheries often operate belowthe BMMSY, whereas fisheries closures and, less frequently, gear-restricted fisheries were within or above this window.

Few studies have objectively and simultaneously examined the types of MPAs that are most effective in conserving reef resources and the socioeconomic factors responsible for effective conservation [4-6]. We simultaneously explored measures of reef and socioeconomic conservation success at four national parks, four comanaged reserves, and three traditionally managed areas in Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. Underwater visual censuses of key ecological indicators [7, 8] revealed that the average size and biomass of fishes were higher in all areas under traditional management and at one comanaged reserve when compared to nearby unmanaged areas. Socioeconomic assessments [6, 9, 10] revealed that this ""effective conservation"" was positively related to compliance, visibility of the reserve, and length of time the management had been in place but negatively related to market integration, wealth, and village population size. We suggest that in cases where the resources for enforcement are lacking, management regimes that are designed to meet community goals can achieve greater compliance and subsequent conservation success than regimes designed primarily for biodiversity conservation. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

Eight patch reefs, divided equally between nofishing and fished zones in the remote Glover's Reef atoll lagoon, were studied for 22 yr: 13 yr before and 9 yr after a ban on parrotfish capture. Findings indicate that the main effect of the fisheries closure was the recovery of targeted carnivorous species, notably snappers, jacks, and groupers. Recovery continued for most of the time series, including the later period when parrot-fish capture was banned. Parrotfish abundance slowly declined in both management zones and across the ban period. The loss occurred for both small non-fished species, such as the striped parrot fish Scarus iserti, and for larger fished species, such as the stoplight Sparisoma viride and red-band parrotfish Sparisoma aurofrenatum. Consequently, parrotfish abundance appeared to be controlled by the ecology of these patch reefs rather than fishing mortality. We suggest that the high and persistent cover of late-successional algae reduces the renewal rates of algae, which had negative consequences for all studied parrotfish populations. Low ocean currents and physical energy in the lagoon appeared to promote algal persistence. Thus, parrotfish bans may be more effective in promoting reef recovery in environments that promote rapid algal turnover. Fisheries regulations are unlikely to rapidly restore hard corals on these patch reefs, which have slowly transitioned to algal dominance since first described in 1970. © 2020 The authors.",,25-40,,,645,,Mar.

Historical data came from one of the earliest and most enduring Swahili coastal settlements (approximately AD 750-1400). Modern data came from fisheries near the archeological site and intensively harvested fishing grounds in southern Kenya. The areas we sampled that were closed to fishing (closures) were small (<28 km 2) and permanent. The midden data indicated changes in the fish assemblage that are consistent with a weak expansion of fishing intensity and the unsustainable fishing hypothesis. Fishes represented in the early midden assemblages from AD 750 to 950 had longer life spans, older age at maturity, and longer generation times than fish assemblages after AD 950, when the abundance of species with longer maximum body lengths increased. Changes in fish life histories during the historical period were, however, one-third smaller than differences between the historical and modern assemblages. Fishes in the modern assemblage had smaller mean body sizes, higher growth and mortality rates, a higher proportion of microinvertivores, omnivores, and herbivores, and higher rates of food consumption, whereas the historical assemblage had a greater proportion of piscivores and macroinvertivores. Differences in fish life histories between modern closures and modern fishing grounds were also small, but the life histories of fishes in modern closures were more similar to those in the midden before AD 950 because they had longer life spans, older age at maturity, and a higher proportion of piscivores and macroinvertivores than the modern fisheries. Modern closures and historical fish assemblages were considerably different, although both contained species with longer life spans. © 2011 Society for Conservation Biology.",,945-955,,5,25,,Conserv.

These advances allowed us to develop a spatially resolved proxy for predicting numbers of tropical nearshore marine taxa. A diverse marine environmental spatial database was used to model numbers of taxa from similar to 1000 field sites, and the predictions were applied to all 7039 6.25-km2 reef cells in 9 ecoregions and 11 nations of the western Indian Ocean. Our proxy for total numbers of taxa was based on the positive correlation (r2 = 0.24) of numbers of taxa of hard corals and 5 highly diverse reef fish families. Environmental relationships indicated that the number of fish species was largely influenced by biomass, nearness to people, governance, connectivity, and productivity and that coral taxa were influenced mostly by physicochemical environmental variability. At spatial delineations of province, ecoregion, nation, and strength of spatial clustering, we compared areas of conservation priority based on our total species proxy with those identified in 3 previous priority-setting reports and with the protected area database. Our method identified 119 locations that fit 3 numbers of taxa (hard coral, fish, and their combination) and 4 spatial delineations (nation, ecoregion, province, and reef clustering) criteria. Previous publications on priority setting identified 91 priority locations of which 6 were identified by all reports. We identified 12 locations that fit our 12 criteria and corresponded with 3 previously identified locations, 65 that aligned with at least 1 past report, and 28 that were new locations. Only 34% of the 208 marine protected areas in this province overlapped with identified locations with high numbers of predicted taxa. Differences occurred because past priorities were frequently based on unquantified perceptions of remoteness and preselected priority taxa. Our environment-species proxy and modeling approach can be considered among other important criteria for making conservation decisions.

However, the link between perception of baseline states and support for conservation planning has not been tested empirically. Here, we investigate how perceptions of change in coral reef ecosystems affect stakeholders' willingness to pay (WTP) for the establishment of protected areas. Coral reefs are experiencing rapid, global change that is observable by the public, and therefore provide an ideal ecosystem to test links between beliefs about baseline states and willingness to support conservation. Our survey respondents perceived change to coral reef communities across six variables: coral abundance, fish abundance, fish diversity, fish size, sedimentation, and water pollution. Respondants who accurately perceived declines in reef health had significantly higher WTP for protected areas (US $256.80 vs. $102.50 per year), suggesting that shifted baselines may reduce engagement with conservation efforts. If WTP translates to engagement, this suggests that goals for restoration and recovery are likely to be more ambitious if the public is aware of long term change. Therefore, communicating the scope and depth of environmental problems is essential in engaging the public in conservation. © 2018 McClenachan, Matsuura, Shah and Dissanayake.",,,,FEB,4,,Front. Mar.

We determined the relative influence of environmental factors and predation by humans in shaping the density, biomass, and species richness of 4 medium-bodied (10–40 cm total length [TL]) coral reef fish groups targeted by fishers (mesopredators, planktivores, grazer and detritivores, and scrapers) and the density of 2 groups not targeted by fishers (invertivores, small fish ?10 cm TL) in the central Philippines. Boosted regression trees were used to model the response of each fish group to 21 predictor variables: 13 habitat variables, 5 island variables, and 3 fishing variables (no-take marine reserve [NTMR] presence or absence, NTMR size, and NTMR age). Targeted and nontargeted fish groups responded most strongly to habitat variables, then island variables. Fishing (NTMR) variables generally had less influence on fish groups. Of the habitat variables, live hard coral cover, structural complexity or habitat complexity index, and depth had the greatest effects on density, biomass, and species richness of targeted fish groups and on the density of nontargeted fishes. Of the island variables, proximity to the nearest river and island elevation had the most influence on fish groups. The NTMRs affected only fishes targeted by fishers; NTMR size positively correlated with density, biomass, and species richness of targeted fishes, particularly mesopredatory, and grazing and detritivorous fishes. Importantly, NTMRs as small as 15 ha positively affected medium-bodied fishes. This finding provides reassurance for regions that have invested in small-scale community-managed NTMRs. However, management strategies that integrate sound coastal land-use practices to conserve adjacent reef fish habitat, strategic NTMR placement, and establishment of larger NTMRs will be crucial for maintaining biodiversity and fisheries. © 2020 Society for Conservation Biology",,976-990,,3,35,,Conserv.

Protecting ecological connectivity, within and among reefs, and between reefs and other ecosystems is critical to resilience. However, connectivity science is not yet able to clearly identify the specific measures for effective protection of connectivity. This article aims to provide a set of principles or practical guidelines that can be applied currently to protect connectivity. These 'rules of thumb' are based on current knowledge and expert opinion, and on the philosophy that, given the urgency, it is better to act with incomplete knowledge than to wait for detailed understanding that may come too late. The principles, many of which are not unique to connectivity, include: (1) allow margins of error in extent and nature of protection, as insurance against unforeseen or incompletely understood threats or critical processes; (2) spread risks among areas; (3) aim for networks of protected areas which are: (a) comprehensive and spread-protect all biotypes, habitats and processes, etc., to capture as many possible connections, known and unknown; (b) adequate-maximise extent of protection for each habitat type, and for the entire region; (c) representative-maximise likelihood of protecting the full range of processes and spatial requirements; (d) replicated-multiple examples of biotypes or processes enhances risk spreading; (4) protect entire biological units where possible (e.g. whole reefs), including buffers around core areas. Otherwise, choose bigger rather than smaller areas; (5) provide for connectivity at a wide range of dispersal distances (within and between patches), emphasising distances <20-30 km; and (6) use a portfolio of approaches, including but not limited to MPAs.

Comprehensive review of available evidence shows major, rapid benefits of no-take areas for targeted fish and sharks, in both reef and nonreef habitats, with potential benefits for fisheries as well as biodiversity conservation. Large, mobile species like sharks benefit less than smaller, site-attached fish. Critically, reserves also appear to benefit overall ecosystem health and resilience: outbreaks of coral-eating, crown-of-thorns starfish appear less frequent on no-take reefs, which consequently have higher abundance of coral, the very foundation of reef ecosystems. Effective marine reserves require regular review of compliance: fish abundances in no-entry zones suggest that even no-take zones may be significantly depleted due to poaching. Spatial analyses comparing zoning with seabed biodiversity or dugong distributions illustrate significant benefits from application of best-practice conservation principles in data-poor situations. Increases in the marine reserve network in 2004 affected fishers, but preliminary economic analysis suggests considerable net benefits, in terms of protecting environmental and tourism values. Relative to the revenue generated by reef tourism, current expenditure on protection is minor.

Our objective is to make recommendations to improve future multi-stakeholder marine policy processes. In our view, while the South Coast stakeholder process had many positive outcomes, it failed to reach what we call here a ""stable agreement."" Our analysis is based on two of the authors' involvement (one as a facilitator and the other as a stakeholder representative) in the process and a post-hoc survey of participants. We find that several ill-advised process design and management choices significantly destabilized the negotiations, leading to an ultimately unstable agreement. We highlight four major problematic process design and management decisions, including the following: representation on the multi-stakeholder group was imbalanced, the pre-meeting caucuses were not paired with training in interest-based negotiation, adequate incentives to negotiate toward a consensus agreement were not provided, and the use of straw voting at one point in the process was unclear and inconsistent. As a result of these and other process design and management flaws, many stakeholders believed that the process was biased and that their ends would be better achieved by anchoring negotiations and engaging in positional bargaining. Ultimately, this meant that near-consensus on a single cross-interest marine protected area proposal was not reached, the scientific guidelines put forth were not fully met, the process was not and is not viewed as fair by the stakeholders directly or indirectly involved, and the marine protected area regulations lack broad-scale support. These pitfalls of the South Coast stakeholder process could have been avoided had the management and facilitation team consistently followed best practices in dispute resolution. We recommend that future marine planning processes learn from this example, particularly those occurring in highly complex, urban ocean environments. © 2016 The President and Fellows of Harvard College.",,23-48,,1,32,,Negot.

This lack of attention is likely the result of the complexity of the process, involving often uncoordinated efforts of a multitude of governmental and non-governmental entities over a protracted period of time with no clear start and end-point. Using information gathered from a representative subset of MPAs worldwide, this paper presents the first attempt to identify and describe the various components, and explore potential predictors of the total funds spent in the course of establishment. The thirteen MPAs studied vary in size (from <1 to >360,000km2), location (including near- and offshore in both developed and developing countries), objectives and degree of protection. Variation in MPA start-up costs is shown to be most significantly related to both MPA size and the duration of the establishment phase.

A review of MPA's in three northern areas-the Northwest Atlantic, Northeast Atlantic, and the Northeast Pacifi c-indicates that MPA's can be useful management tools towards fi sheries management and habitat conservation. However, achieving fi shery goals, such as sustainable use of the fi sheries resources, will depend on population abundance (relative to unfi shed conditions) and fi sh behavior and movement. For example, depleted populations of stationary species such as Atlantic sea scallops, Placopecten magellanicus, in the Northeast Atlantic and European lobster, Homarus grammarus, in the North Sea have responded positively to small MPA's, whereas migratory offshore Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua, and Pacifi c cod, Gadus microcephalus, apparently do not appear to benefi t from closed areas because of movement into fi shed areas. Effi - cient habitat conservation requires detailed habitat mapping on relevant spatial scales. In northern boreal systems with large remote areas, this information is diffi cult and expensive to access. An alternative strategy of closing and protecting unexploited areas has worked well for the Aleutian Island coral closure area in Alaska. MPA's can be effective fi sheries management tools when the species to be protected have been depleted and show a small to moderate level of movement, and reproductive success is ensured.

We consider a series of proposed MPA network expansions of various sizes, and we forecast the impact this increase in protection would have on global patterns of fishing effort. We do so by building a predictive machine learning model trained on a global dataset of satellite-based fishing vessel monitoring data, current MPA locations, and spatiotemporal environmental, geographic, political, and economic features. We then use this model to predict future fishing effort under various MPA expansion scenarios compared to a business-as-usual counterfactual scenario that includes no new MPAs. The difference between these scenarios represents the predicted change in fishing effort associated with MPA expansion. We find that regardless of the MPA network objectives or size, fishing effort would decrease inside the MPAs, though by much less than 100%. Moreover, we find that the reduction in fishing effort inside MPAs does not simply redistribute outside—rather, fishing effort outside MPAs would also decline. The overall magnitude of the predicted decrease in global fishing effort principally depends on where networks are placed in relation to existing fishing effort. MPA expansion will lead to a global redistribution of fishing effort that should be accounted for in network design, implementation, and impact evaluation.

Research indicates that the majority of rural farmers interviewed who lived near a state designated protected area were receiving both subsistence and cash incomes from forest-based activities, primarily from the collection of forest products. However, much of the collection of forest produce was officially illegal, as it occurred in state protected forests, and interdiction efforts were on the increase. Yet, little attention has been paid in Vietnam to the need for income substitution for households who lose access to forest produce as a result of conservation enforcement, particularly in the case of farmers who live near, but not in, protected areas; their resources use has been 'invisible' due to a lack of attention and research on the topic. This misunderstanding of the importance of forests to rural farmers has the potential to result in households facing adverse welfare and livelihood outcomes as protected areas boundaries are tightened, and local communities face increased opportunity costs due to stricter conservation enforcement. The article concludes that substitution for loss of income due to conservation activities would best be achieved through carefully targeted interventions to specific high-impact and high-dependency households. Additionally, investments in new sources of wage labor and other low capital-input activities, rather than in agriculture, would likely be of most benefit. © 2009 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,113-131,,1,45,,Environ.

The establishment of a network of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) can help restrict damaging activities and have been recognised as a potential solution to aid marine conservation. When managed correctly they can deliver both ecological and socio-economic benefits. In recent times, MPA designations have increased rapidly while many countries have set future MPA targets for the decades ahead. An integral element of MPA management is adequate monitoring that collects data to assess if conservation objectives are being achieved. Data acquired by monitoring can vary widely as can the techniques employed to collect such data. Ideally, non-destructive and non-invasive methods are preferred to prevent damage to habitats and species, though this may rule out a number of traditional extractive sampling approaches such as dredges and trawls. Moreover, advances in ocean observation technologies enable the collection of large amounts of data at high resolutions, while automated data processing is beginning to make analyses more logistically feasible and less time-consuming. Therefore, developments to existing marine monitoring techniques and new emerging technologies have led to a diverse array of options when choosing to implement an MPA monitoring programme. Here, we present a review of new and existing non-extractive techniques which can be applied to MPA monitoring. We summarise their capabilities, applications, advantages, limitations and possible future developments. The review is intended to aid MPA managers and researchers in determining the suitability of available monitoring techniques based on data requirements and site conditions.

California's coastal cities and counties are developing Climate Action Plans (CAPs) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

A number of strategies to strengthen the connection between scientists, stakeholders, and local coastal planners are described in the article.

The objective of this study was to investigate drivers of seabird habitat selection within the Gulf of the Farallones and Cordell Bank National Marine Sanctuaries to identify areas for targeted conservation planning. We used seabird abundance data collected by the Applied California Current Ecosystem Studies Program (ACCESS) from 2004-2011. We used zero-inflated negative binomial regression to model species abundance and distribution as a function of near surface ocean water properties, distances to geographic features and oceanographic climate indices to identify patterns in foraging habitat selection. We evaluated seasonal, inter-annual and species-specific variability of at-sea distributions for the five most abundant seabirds nesting on the Farallon Islands: western gull (Larus occidentalis), common murre (Uria aalge), Cassin's auklet (Ptychorampus aleuticus), rhinoceros auklet (Cerorhinca monocerata) and Brandt's cormorant (Phalacrocorax penicillatus). The waters in the vicinity of Cordell Bank and the continental shelf east of the Farallon Islands emerged as persistent and highly selected foraging areas across all species. Further, we conducted a spatial prioritization exercise to optimize seabird conservation areas with and without considering impacts of current human activities. We explored three conservation scenarios where 10, 30 and 50 percent of highly selected, species-specific foraging areas would be conserved. We compared and contrasted results in relation to existing marine protected areas (MPAs) and the future alternative energy footprint identified by the California Ocean Uses Atlas. Our results show that the majority of highly selected seabird habitat lies outside of state MPAs where threats from shipping, oil spills, and offshore energy development remain. This analysis accentuates the need for innovative marine spatial planning efforts and provides a foundation on which to build more comprehensive zoning and management in California's National Marine Sanctuaries. © 2013 McGowan et al.",,,,8,8,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"Animals; article; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; bird; Birds; Brandt cormorant; California; Cassin auklet; common murre; CONSERVATION; controlled study; ECOLOGICAL CRITERIA; Ecosystem; ECOSYSTEM-BASED MANAGEMENT; Environment; environmental planning; environmental protection; foraging behavior; geographic distribution; habitat selection; HOTSPOTS; Human Activities; Humans; mathematical model; Models, Theoretical; nesting; nonhuman; NORTHERN CALIFORNIA; ocean environment; population abundance; Population Density; Population Dynamics; PREDICTION; Rhinoceros auklet; sea surface waters; seabird; seasonal variation; Seasons; Spatial Analysis; species distribution; SPECIES DISTRIBUTION MODELS; species diversity; species habitat; TROPHIC TRANSFER; United States; western gull; WIND FARMS",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

These concepts include the extent to which the network maximises diversity (including genetic diversity) and the extent to which protected areas interact with non-reserve locations. To examine the consequences of different selection criteria, the preferred location to complement protected sites was examined using samples taken from four locations around each of two marine protected areas: Strangford Lough and Lough Hyne, Ireland. Three different measures of genetic distance were used: F ST, D est and a measure of allelic dissimilarity, along with a direct assessment of the total number of alleles in different candidate networks. Standardized site scores were used for comparisons across methods and selection criteria. The average score for Castlehaven, a site relatively close to Lough Hyne, was highest, implying that this site would capture the most genetic diversity while ensuring highest degree of interaction between protected and unprotected sites. Patterns around Strangford Lough were more ambiguous, potentially reflecting the weaker genetic structure around this protected area in comparison to Lough Hyne. Similar patterns were found across species with different dispersal capacities, indicating that methods based on genetic distance could be used to help maximise ecological coherence in reserve networks. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,262-270,,,152,,Biol.

Despite being an evidence-based discipline, to date there has been no comprehensive review of the outcomes of systematic conservation plans and assessments of the relative effectiveness of applications in different contexts. To address this fundamental gap in knowledge, our primary research question was: what is the extent, distribution and robustness of evidence on conservation outcomes of systematic conservation planning around the globe? Methods: A systematic mapping exercise was undertaken using standardised search terms across 29 sources, including publication databases, online repositories and a wide range of grey literature sources. The review team screened articles recursively, first by title only, then abstract and finally by full-text, using inclusion criteria related to systematic conservation plans conducted at sub-global scales and reported on since 1983. We sought studies that reported outcomes relating to natural, human, social, financial or institutional outcomes and which employed robust evaluation study designs. The following information was extracted from included studies: bibliographic details, background information including location of study and broad objectives of the plan, study design, reported outcomes and context. Results: Of the approximately 10,000 unique articles returned through our searches, 1209 were included for full-text screening and 43 studies reported outcomes of conservation planning interventions. However, only three studies involved the use of evaluation study designs which are suitably rigorous for inclusion, according to best-practice guidelines. The three included studies were undertaken in the Gulf of California (Mexico), Réunion Island, and The Nature Conservancy's landholdings across the USA. The studies varied widely in context, purpose and outcomes. Study designs were non-experimental or qualitative, and involved use of spatial landholdings over time, stakeholder surveys and modelling of alternative planning scenarios. Conclusion: Rigorous evaluations of systematic conservation plans are currently not published in academic journals or made publicly available elsewhere. Despite frequent claims relating to positive implications and outcomes of these planning activities, we show that evaluations are probably rarely conducted. This finding does not imply systematic conservation planning is not effective but highlights a significant gap in our understanding of how, when and why it may or may not be effective. Our results also corroborate claims that the literature on systematic conservation planning is dominated by methodological studies, rather than those that focus on implementation and outcomes, and support the case that this is a problematic imbalance in the literature. We emphasise the need for academics and practitioners to publish the outcomes of systematic conservation planning exercises and to consider employing robust evaluation methodologies when reporting project outcomes. Adequate reporting of outcomes will in turn enable transparency and accountability between institutions and funding bodies as well as improving the science and practice of conservation planning. © 2018 The Author(s).",,,,1,7,,Environ.

This study leveraged the high spatial and temporal coverage provided by remote-sensing ocean colour products, and the concept of biogeographical classification to delineate areas in the pelagic environment with application to marine conservation. Satellite-derived and modelled biogeophysical data were used to delineate an area of biological and physical homogeneity spatially consistent with the static boundaries of the Scotian Slope Ecologically and Biologically Significant Area (EBSA), off eastern Canada. We used iterative cluster analysis applied to an archive (2004–2014) that consisted of remotely-sensed Chlorophyll a, sea-surface temperature, and primary production derived from the Moderate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), and simulated mixed layer depth to define “dynamic” boundaries of the EBSA at bi-weekly, seasonal and annual resolutions. The final cluster extended further east than the static EBSA in summer and fall, indicating that characteristics of the static EBSA environment persist beyond the current boundaries in these seasons. In winter and spring, the final areas derived by our analysis was smaller than the static EBSA, but again showed extension beyond the current eastern boundary. Both ice and cloud cover affecting remotely-sensed data and the extent of water column mixing were important in determining the size of the final cluster. The dynamic cluster east of the original static boundary incorporated an area of lower Chlorophyll a and water column primary production in the spring, but higher values in the autumn relative to the static area. Overall physical and biological characteristics of the static and dynamic EBSA considered in this research were similar within and across years. This methodology incorporates ocean-colour data and modelled estimates of multiple biological and physical characteristics to objectively refine areas of ecological interest at a spatial scale relevant for the management of marine conservation areas. © 2018",,33-47,,,214,,Remote Sens.

For example, the temperate eastern Indian Ocean has a range of small to very small no-take marine areas. The current study focused on the Rottnest Island Marine Reserve off the coast of Western Australia, containing the oldest and largest no-take sanctuary zone in the region (1.6km2, established in 1988) and three newly created no-take sanctuary zones (0.8-0.9km2, established in 2007). Three years of transect and baited video monitoring data (2009-2011) from the four no-take areas were compared inside and outside of the sanctuary zones and to previously published studies of the oldest sanctuary zone. Throughout the three-year study, greater size-structure and biomass of two small-bodied by-catch wrasse species were observed in the oldest sanctuary zone, consistent with previously published studies. In contrast to previously published studies from Rottnest, no consistent differences were observed in any large bodied fished species within the oldest sanctuary zone and no increases in biomass were observed in the newly created no-take areas. The results suggest that small sanctuary zones do not provide consistent protection for larger-bodied fished species, but can for smaller-bodied by-catch species. The generality of these results is limited by the lack of replication due to only one established no-take area in the region, and the large proportion of sand habitats which limited the number of sampling sites for reef fishes within the sanctuaries. However, the results suggest that if consistent protection of large-bodied fisheries species is an objective of no-take areas, representative and replicated sanctuary zones should be of greater size and encompass a greater range of depths and habitats. Such systems will also provide the necessary spatial replication between and within no-take areas to design robust monitoring programs to inform conservation management. © 2015 Elsevier B.V..",,153-163,,,471,,J.

These activities predominantly take place in Limfjorden, a large microtidal sound, and in the Inner Danish waters. Both areas are shallow, estuarine, receive high nutrient inputs from agriculture, and are of nature conservation interest (Natura 2000 sites), thus presenting challenges for an ecosystem approach to fisheries management. Using high-resolution fisheries data (~10 m), we investigated the effects of bivalve dredging on benthic communities at both local (Natura 2000 site) and regional (fishery-wide) scales. Regionally, our results showed that dredging intensity correlated with shifts in species composition and reduced community biomass. We were, however, unable to detect an effect of dredging on community density, trait richness, and trait composition. These metrics were significantly related to other environmental drivers, such as sediment organic content (negative) and mussel bed biomass (positive). At the local scale, the observed relationships between dredging, biomass, and species composition varied significantly. This occurred as dredging impacts were greater in areas that contained suitable reference conditions and experienced relatively low levels of eutrophication and natural disturbance. By contrast, communities which experienced high nutrient loading, regular anoxic events, and high natural variability were relatively unaffected by dredging. Our results therefore highlight the importance of spatial scales in fishing impact estimations. Furthermore, we demonstrate how targeted sampling, high-resolution fisheries data, and suitable reference areas can be used to detect fishery effects in coastal areas that are highly stressed by eutrophication. © Inter-Research 2020 · www.int-res.com.",,21-38,,,642,,Mar.

This paper reviews state-of-the-art coastal impact models that determine sea-level rise vulnerability and provides guidance to help managers and policy makers determine the appropriateness of various models at local, regional, and global scales. There are a variety of models, each with strengths and weaknesses, that are suited for different management objectives. We find important trade-offs exist regarding the cost and capacity needed to run and interpret the models, the range of impacts they cover, and regarding the spatial scale that each operates which may overstate impacts at one end and underestimate impacts at the other.

Results The region where the set-aside was located had a strong effect on the abundance of the selected species. In addition, vegetation coverage, field shape of set-aside and surrounding natural habitats were critical features, but with contrasting effects on the different species. Conclusion Populations of the selected species of conservation concern could be improved by effective management of set-aside.

These sites are popular for visitors, but face many management challenges, including how to adapt to climate change. Often established for biodiversity conservation, scenic beauty, or tourism objectives, protected areas should become a major part of national strategies to address climate change and the disasters that may come in the form of extreme climatic events. Protected areas often contain the ecosystems that are the most effective in storing carbon and make major contributions to adapting to climate change. But these sites need to be managed more effectively, and linking them to the growing public concern about climate change could be one means of doing so. Management approaches that should be supported include establishing protected area complexes that expand their influence to a landscape scale, incorporating climate change issues into protected management at both site and system scales, identify the multiple ecosystem services that protected areas provide as a means of building broader support for them, and many others. Protected areas can also contribute to recovery from extreme hazard events, for example by working with local communities to restore natural vegetation. To date, protected areas have been largely ignored by the Clean Development Mechanism established by the Climate Change Convention. This should change, and protected areas should be recognized for the many contributions they make to climate change mitigation and adaptation, thereby contributing to reducing disaster risks. A relatively simple step would be to incorporate protected area agencies more actively in the preparation of the national reports called for by the Framework Convention on Climate Change. Protected areas should also become eligible for support under the REDD+ programme. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.",,379-397,,,42,,,,,,,,Springer Netherlands,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Adv.

This has resulted in the declaration of many MPAs around the world. Despite this activity there have been few tests of hypotheses about the design criteria for selection and management of these areas, resulting in a haphazard and ad hoc selection of protected areas, with conflicting and inconsistent terminology and objectives. The application of appropriately tested scientific information to the design of MPAs will increase the likelihood of success in the future. To 1st January 1992, 267 MPAs had been declared in Australia, covering a total area of ca 400 019 km2. The history of their declaration has been sporadic and uneven. Conflicts over State and Federal legislation and, within states, conflicts over jurisdiction among agencies caused by overlapping responsibilities, have at times slowed the declaration of MPAs.

Habitat classification can support marine spatial planning and inform decision-making processes in such areas. We present a regional, top–down, broad-scale, seafloor-habitat classification for the Clarion-Clipperton Fracture Zone (CCZ), an area targeted for future polymetallic nodule mining in abyssal waters in the equatorial Pacific Ocean. Our classification uses non-hierarchical, k-medoids clustering to combine environmental correlates of faunal distributions in the region. The classification uses topographic variables, particulate organic carbon flux to the seafloor, and is the first to use nodule abundance as a habitat variable. Twenty-four habitat classes are identified, with large expanses of abyssal plain and smaller classes with varying topography, food supply, and substrata. We then assess habitat representativity of the current network of protected areas (called Areas of Particular Environmental Interest) in the CCZ. Several habitat classes with high nodule abundance are common in mining exploration claims, but currently receive little to no protection in APEIs. There are several large unmanaged areas containing high nodule abundance on the periphery of the CCZ, as well as smaller unmanaged areas within the central CCZ, that could be considered for protection from mining to improve habitat representativity and safeguard regional biodiversity. © Copyright © 2020 McQuaid, Attrill, Clark, Cobley, Glover, Smith and Howell.",,,,,7,,Front.

Understanding the relationship between society and the ocean is crucial for achieving conservation targets, ocean sustainability, and community well-being. Toward these ends, the UN Ocean Decade recognizes ocean literacy as a transformative mechanism to reshape society-ocean relationships. Ocean literacy seeks to empower global communities to better understand, value, and care for the ocean in ways that support, restore, and ensure ocean-human health and well-being. By extension, ocean literacy research is an emergent transdisciplinary field of inquiry that explores diverse dimensions, drivers, and impacts of human-ocean relationships. It considers these relations across different socio-cultural, economic, political, and geographic contexts and perspectives. In this article, we position ocean literacy research and the wider concept of ocean literacy as a framework for exploring the relational aspects of marine conservation to inform effective policy and conservation. We begin by situating ocean literacy and ocean literacy dimensions, research priorities, and community alongside broader ocean conservation efforts. We next share insights gleaned from the third edition of the Ocean Literacy Dialogues series, led by the Canadian Ocean Literacy Coalition and the Marine Social Sciences Network, with support from IOC-UNESCO, held during the fifth International Marine Protected Area Congress (IMPAC5) in Vancouver, in early 2023. Through a series of participatory sessions, we explored the application of ocean literacy research in supporting future marine conservation and management. Drawing on insights co-developed through this process, we outline potential agenda alignment between IMPAC5 marine conservation themes and co-identified ocean literacy research priority areas. We lastly speak to the importance of ongoing collaborative initiatives like the Ocean Literacy Dialogues series to foster global collaborations, dialogue, and capacity sharing to advance ocean literacy, marine conservation, and policy efforts. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,171,,Mar.

The term is now used more widely to describe community practices, goals and priorities that are determined, maintained and managed by diverse cultural relationships with “place”. The study presented in this article investigated biocultural place relationships in connection with well-being and sustainability. In the context of learning and action for sustainability in Isla Grande, an island in a marine protected area of Colombia, this study targeted the significance of place to the everyday lives of Afro-Colombian youth – from their perspective. Beyond aiming to merely observe and collect data, the methodology included a research design which actively involved local youth and incorporated the aspect of place. The authors describe and reflect on the processes, learning and action that emerged throughout the research, as well as the study’s limitations. They discuss broad implications in terms of how place relationships influence research, and how research influences place relationships.

Destruction and loss of habitat, illegal use of wildlife, overexploitation of resources, and lack of conservation awareness, have a negative impact on biodiversity and ecosystems. The unforeseeable expectation by 2050 is that few large marine species will remain and majority of coral reefs, mangrove swamps and saltmarshes will be degraded. The wildlife carrying capacity in many protected areas will significantly reduce due to global warming, pollution, invasive species, and illegal hunting. One of the concerns is the rapidly increasing human population on the planet with 6.4 billion individuals in 2005. For global conservation a sustainable approach means that strict legislation and ethics have to be developed, together with regulating human attitudes. Conservation education and outreach techniques including learning and thinking, developing skills, and undertaking activities are described. The responsibility of Zoos to teaching their visitors by 'effective education' about the causes and types of threats, their decline and measures for conservation is more holistic.

Overall, 248 taxa (species, subspecies and varieties) are currently considered as Algerian endemics, from 41 families and 128 genera. They constitute about 6.3% of the total known flora of Algeria. The northern floristic regions are richer in endemic species: K1, K2, AS3, C1+C2 and O1 are by far the richest floristic regions for strict-endemic taxa, highlighting the importance of their mountain ranges. Most (59%) of the endemic plants have a narrow geographical distribution range (range-restricted). An overview of the IUCN conservation status of the Algerian endemics indicates that only 16 taxa (6.4%) are evaluated, out of which 5.6% of the taxa are threatened. Overall, 44% of the Algerian endemics are legally protected and 43% are included in the protected areas network. Finally, we focus on the shortfalls of knowledge that could orient further research on endemism data in Algeria. They concern taxonomic, chorological or conservation figures and above all the actual presence of the endemic species. It is, therefore, urgent to carry out targeted field expeditions in order to find and re-collect these species, most of which are strictly localized and have probably never been searched or found for 60 years to over a century. © 2023 Botanischer Garten und Botanisches Museum Berlin-Dahlem.

In addition, a gap analysis was performed to show which protected areas contain the didelphimorphs listed under a conservation category. Considering phylogenetic diversity with the former analysis, results indicate that the biogeographic provinces most important for conservation of didelphimorphs are the Gulf of Mexico, the Pacific Coast, and Oaxaca, although Soconusco and Sierra Madre del Sur also have to be considered. We also observed that not all of the richest sites corresponded with current protected areas.

We designed and tested new protocols to address those challenges to control alien American mink in southern Chile. We recommend the use of the GMV-13 variant of collapsible wire cage with scent gland lure, as they are smaller, cheaper, easier to transport and effective at catching female mink and reducing the possibility of trapping native species. Trapping campaigns using GMV-13 should be conducted principally during summer, with a 200-m trap spacing, for up to 6 days before moving traps to a new site, with a combination of three days with female scent gland lure followed by three days with male scent gland lure. Our modelling reveals that this should result in the removal of at least 70% of the local estimated discrete mink population within the area covered by each transect. Two main challenges when controlling alien American mink (Neovison vison) in Patagonia are to maximize campaign efficacy and cost-effectiveness and to avoid trapping native species. We designed and tested new variants of collapsible wire box traps, compared the efficacy of a food-based bait and a scent lure and compared catch rates in different seasons of the year. We used the data to model the efficiency rate of the trapping and to determine the trapping effort required to remove 70-90% of the estimated discrete mink population. Between January 2018 and March 2021, we operated 59 trapping transects over 103 three-day trapping periods in southern Chile. Traps were first baited with canned fish, and afterwards with mink anal gland lure. We compared the efficacy of mink capture with that of our previous study. We trapped 196 mink (125 males, 71 females), with most captures in summer. The medium-sized GMV-18 trap caught more male mink, but the more compact GMV-13 caught fewer non-target rodents and no native mammals. The scent lure was more successful than the canned fish when the previous campaign's data were included in the analysis. There was also a significant improvement in the proportion of female mink trapped and reduced labour compared with our previous campaign that used larger traps, fish bait and 400-500 m trap spacings. We caught relatively more females than males after the third night of trapping on a transect. Our data analysis supports the use of the GMV-13 variant of wire cage trap as the best trap size: it is effective on female mink, small, cheap and easy to transport. Combined with mink anal scent lure, it reduces the possibility of trapping native species compared with other traps tested in Chile. As the most efficient method for removing at least 70% of the estimated discrete mink population within the area covered by each trap transect in southern Chile tested to date, we recommend trapping campaigns using GMV-13 during summer, with a 200-m trap spacing, for up to 6 days before moving traps to a new site, with a combination of three days with a female scent gland lure, followed by three days with a male scent gland lure.",,,,2,12,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000747308400001,,,,,,,ACTIVITY PATTERNS; conservation; cost-benefit analyses; GENETIC-STRUCTURE; HABITAT PREFERENCES; HOME RANGES; HORN BIOSPHERE RESERVE; invasive species; management strategies; MUSTELA-VISON; mustelid; NAVARINO ISLAND; pest management; population management; POTENTIAL IMPACT; predator control; scent; SCENT LURES; TIERRA-DEL-FUEGO; trapping,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

While various indicators have been proposed to assess effectiveness of individual MPAs, no comprehensive set of indicators exists for MPA networks, particularly for Aichi Target 11. The qualitative elements of this target recognize the value of social, economic, governance, and ecological factors in achieving effective biodiversity conservation. Here, we used a systematic literature review to identify indicators of MPA network effectiveness. We reviewed 64 publications, identifying 48 indicators that could be aligned with the qualitative elements. Results showed that assessments of MPA network effectiveness predominantly focused on effective management while neglecting equitable management and integration into the wider land and seascape. Indicators tended to focus on ecological characteristics, overlooking social, economic, and governance dimensions. Key challenges in addressing these gaps include identifying conflicting priorities and objectives in adjacent marine and land areas that interfere with cooperation and knowledge sharing, and ensuring diverse areas with distinct social and ecological contexts are considered.

The variety of expected social-ecological outcomes associated with MPANs underscores a need to consider ecological, economic, governance, and social dimensions in MPAN design, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation. However, little is known about how these four dimensions are considered or shaped by objectives. We conducted an online survey with MPAN managers, technical staff, and academics from across the globe (77 survey responses that described 48 MPANs located in 59 countries). Our findings confirmed that most MPANs have various co-occurring, potentially conflicting objectives. MPANs with biodiversity and societal objectives considered attributes (e.g., human well-being and economic distribution, institutional partnerships, and network-specific ecological attributes) among all dimensions, with greater frequency than MPANs with only biodiversity objectives. Nonetheless, ecological attributes were always perceived as important irrespective of the MPAN objective. Reaching synergies between the multiple dimensions of MPANs can be challenging if dimensions get overlooked in MPAN evaluations. Identifying the important attributes considered in MPANs offers insight into the practice of MPAN design, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation and can help improve MPAN success. © 2023 The Authors.

This global crisis has spurred development of innovative management strategies to rebuild depleted fisheries and marine ecosystems. One highly touted strategy involves the design and creation of marine reserves (areas off limits to extractive uses) to rebuild fisheries and conserve marine biodiversity. In this paper, we propose an integrated sequence of methodologies that provides an objective, quantitative framework for the design of marine reserves in spatially heterogeneous coastal ocean environments. The marine reserve designs proposed here satisfy the multiple, often-conflicting criteria of disparate resource user groups. This research is the first attempt to explicitly explore the trade-off between the conservation goals of fishery management and coral reef protection and the consumptive interests of commercial and recreational fishing fleets. The spatial distribution and size abundance of reef fish stocks throughout the Florida Keys coral reef ecosystem were estimated from a database consisting of more than 18,000 visual samples taken from 1979 to 2002. These distributions of multispecies abundance and biomass, in conjunction with a geographic database of coral reef habitats, are used to demonstrate an integer goal programming methodology for the design of networks of marine reserves, called plans.

The present study focused on two major issues in conservation planning including socioeconomic costs and zoning procedure. The goal was to prioritize and identify representative areas for bird conservation, while minimizing the economic cost for the silvicultural sector and resolve conflicts with recreational activities. The study was conducted in forest areas of Golestan Province as part of Hyrcanian mixed forests, located along the southern coasts of the Caspian Sea and northern slopes of the Alborz Mountains, northern Iran. We used systematic conservation software Marxan with Zones to select candidate areas for conservation. Two types of conservation networks were defined, one with high and partial protection zones and the other with high protection zones only. We focused on four conservation scenarios varying in targets, costs, and multiple zones. The results showed that incorporation of socioeconomic costs significantly decreases the potential impacts on the silvicultural and recreational sectors without significant change in the area of protection zones. Furthermore, we found that design of multiple zone conservation areas facilitates evaluation of a wider range of conservation scenarios that can reduce potential socioeconomic impacts on other interests. © 2017 Elsevier GmbH",,77-84,,,40,,J.

Careful monitoring of visitor flows is a first prerequisite for coastal area management. We show how AIS ship data can be translated into interpretable information on recreational boats and investigate whether AIS can provide monitoring information when compared to nature conservation policy targets. In the Wadden Sea UNESCO World Heritage Site we used nearly 9 million data points to create spatiotemporal patterns for the 2018 recreation season. We combined this with shipping lanes and bathymetry data and compared the resulting patterns with nature protection regulations. Our results show that most of the traffic is concentrated around tidal channels. We also show that exceeding speed limits is not predominant behaviour, but the effect of speeding on birds and seals might be more severe than the data suggests. We mapped favourite tidal flat moor activities, and observed where this occurs in Marine Protected Areas. We conclude that AIS analysis can provide valuable recreational boating monitoring, relevant to sensitive coastal area management in the entire Dutch Wadden Sea for the full recreational season. Broader integration of AIS with radar data and ecological data can add to the power of using AIS. © 2021 The Author(s)",,,,,130,,Appl.

Despite the fact that the number of MPAs has expanded dramatically over time, their management effectiveness still needs to improve, particularly in developing nations. Hence, this study was conducted to quantitatively and qualitatively assess the current state of Indonesian MPAs in meeting the Aichi targets. The government's investigative reports served as the foundation for the quantitative research, while a government-led interview-based survey conducted across 61 Indonesian locations served as the basis for the qualitative study. The findings showed that although the present Indonesian MPAs were at the stage of meeting the national target of 10 % coverage, it was anticipated that they would fall short of the new 30 % worldwide target by 2030. Although 61 % and 39 % of the research sites were managed at a minimal and optimal level, respectively, the evaluation of the management effectiveness of the MPAs in Indonesia indicates that none of the sites were sustainably managed. Lack of funding due to a need for infrastructure, facilities, and human resources was the main problem impeding management effectiveness. Based on the study's findings, it is recommended that the nation's biodiversity targets be designed to focus more on the development and oversight of the current MPA management and provide a perceptive policy response concerning the post-2020 global biodiversity framework. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,282,,Biol.

Objectives: We built latitude-enhanced species-area relationship models to predict species richness for a variety of common taxa in the eastern United States at local to regional scales. Methods: We used data from complete surveys of East Coast parks in the United States to build latitude-enhanced species-area relationship models for amphibians, birds, freshwater fish, mammals, marine fish, plants, and reptiles. We used data from the published literature and United States Fish and Wildlife Refuges to independently test the accuracy of the models. We demonstrated the utility of all modeled taxa within selected East Coast Protected Areas of the United States. Results: Our models explained 35–91% of the variation in surveyed species richness, with marine fish, freshwater fish and reptile models exhibiting the strongest relationships (pseudo-R2 = 0.91, 0.66, and 0.70, respectively). Latitude had the strongest influence in the amphibian model. During accuracy testing, all taxa exhibited significant agreement between observed and predicted species richness and explained 75–97% of the variation. Our demonstration showed that for two similarly sized US Protected Areas, the parcel l.25° lower in latitude would likely have one more bird species, four more plant species, and an additional amphibian species. Conclusions: The latitude term added value to the species-area relationship models for most taxa and proved useful for conservation and urban planning in local to regional sized areas of the East Coast of the United States. © 2019, Springer Nature B.V.",,1877-1888,,8,34,,Landsc.

The use of precautionary measures and data-poor methods have been recommended as valuable tools to guide the management and conservation of marine taxa when information is scarce and the effect of fisheries on populations is evident. A Productivity Susceptibility Analysis (PSA) and intrinsic rebound potential (r) estimates were used to evaluate the vulnerability and resilience of elasmobranchs before and after a precautionary measure (closure of the fishery) was implemented in the Archipelago of San Andrés, Providencia and Santa Catalina, Colombia (Seaflower Biosphere Reserve). We identified locally large information gaps, specifically on the demographic and life history parameters of the 15 elasmobranch species (13 sharks and 2 rays) evaluated for the Archipelago. Including fishing effects, nine large commercial shark species were identified as the most vulnerable and with the lowest intrinsic rebound potential, while the least vulnerable species was the whale shark (Rhincodon typus), which presented the third highest value of r2M. Once the fishery was closed, the vulnerability of large sharks decreased greatly. Our findings highlight the importance of: involving communities to achieve effective management processes; implementing precautionary measures for high impact and targeted fisheries; and using valuable data-poor tools for the study of populations as an alternative for evaluating and suggesting management measures. Finally, based in PSA and intrinsic rebound potential results, it is suggested to maintain the fishing ban in consensus with the fishermen, and to evaluate economic alternatives already being generated in the area such as recreational diving and ecological tourism, among others. © 2019",,,,,31,,Reg.

The success of existing and future MPAs critically depends on the possibility that a consensus on MPA objectives is reached among the stakeholders involved about the environmental and socioeconomic impacts of an MPA.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) have been widely advocated for conserving and managing marine biodiversity yet, despite extensive research, their benefits for conserving non-target species and wider ecosystem functions remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that MPAs can increase the resilience of coral reef communities to natural disturbances, including coral bleaching, coral diseases, Acanthaster planci outbreaks and storms. Using a 20-year time series from Australia's Great Barrier Reef, we show that within MPAs, (1) reef community composition was 21-38% more stable; (2) the magnitude of disturbance impacts was 30% lower and (3) subsequent recovery was 20% faster that in adjacent unprotected habitats. Our results demonstrate that MPAs can increase the resilience of marine communities to natural disturbance possibly through herbivory, trophic cascades and portfolio effects. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd/CNRS.",,629-637,,6,19,,Ecol.

The reserve’s effect on both target species and biogenic habitats is well-documented. It is less well-known, however, how protection affects other taxa. Here, we present two surveys, made nearly 50 years apart, of encrusting, intertidal bryozoans from Echinoderm Reef, quantify their relative abundance and species richness, and discuss possible reasons for the changes between 1971 and 2019. Prior to protection, encrusting bryozoans were common under boulders on Echinoderm Reef, a rocky intertidal mudstone terrace within the reserve. Since the reserve designation, however, there has been a decline in both abundance and species richness within this intertidal bryozoan community. Inconsistent sampling of the reserve’s bryozoans makes it difficult to correlate changes in the bryozoan community with changes in the reserve’s biotic and abiotic characteristics. Despite monitoring shortcomings, there is still value in the ad hoc biological surveys that have been performed, as they provide a snapshot of what communities were like at the time of collection. In the future, however, more research is needed to understand change within this bryozoan community. © 2021 The Royal Society of New Zealand.",,425-437,,3,57,,New Zealand J. Mar. Freshw.

The association between these species and bryozoan-dominated biogenic habitat commonly results in trawling damage to the benthos; eliminating pressure from destructive fishing practices could support bryozoan regrowth. In 2002, a voluntary fishing restriction was designated over part of one such bryozoan-dominated biogenic habitat, but the efficacy of this ban has not been assessed. Statutory marine protected areas have been proposed in the same area; they aim to achieve bryozoan protection and recovery. A comparison of the bryozoan fauna using benthic images from 2003 and 2019 from the Otago shelf, South Island, New Zealand/Te Waipounamu, Aotearoa shows that a 17-year voluntary fishing ban has been ineffective at increasing the cover and richness of bryozoan-dominated biogenic habitat on the Otago shelf.

The bivalve (Mytella charruana), crab (Ucides cordatus), and catfish (Sciades herzbergii) samples were collected in areas of ecological, environmental and economic importance. This data was used to estimate concentrations in the organisms, and to calculate cancer and human health risk. The most prevalent pollutant classes in the organisms were OCPs, followed by TPs and PPs. Shellfish and fish samples had more compounds indicating health risks, when compared to crabs. The substances causing cancer risks varied across organisms and study areas. The heightened cancer risks linked to specific compounds in various species highlight the urgent need to address persistent pollutants to prevent long-term health impacts on both humans and wildlife. Compounds such as PPs, TPs, and OPPs pose significant risks of neurotoxicity and endocrine disruption.

Brazilian legislation supports implementation of translocation programs for impacted fauna, especially threatened species such as the thin-spined porcupine Chaetomys subspinosus (Rodentia, Erethizontidae). Thus, we present a case study of a pioneer translocation program for the thin-spined porcupine in southeastern Brazil. We aimed to analyze the home-range and habitat selection of three translocated porcupines and one resident individual. In addition, we analyzed the success of the translocations. The porcupines were monitored by radiotelemetry for 3–16 months from October 2015 to March 2017 in a mosaic landscape of restinga forests (sandbank forest vegetation) within a eucalyptus matrix. The translocated porcupines had considerably larger home-ranges (14.29–18.36 ha, minimum convex polygon method – MCP) than did the resident animal (1.22 ha – MCP). We observed stabilization in the home-range size curves of the translocated females in the 7th ? 9th month of monitoring. All translocated individuals achieved permanence within a preselected area, indicating adaptation to the new area. In addition, individuals showed a clear preference for restinga forests over drained eucalyptus plantations. Thus, our results demonstrate the feasibility of thin-spined porcupine translocations and the importance of maintaining restinga forest remnants outside of protected areas for the conservation and permanence of viable populations of this rodent. © 2023 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,74,,J.

In the last decades, the use of single and integrated indices is a powerful tool to process, analyze and convey information about metal accumulation degree for decision makers to better manage protected areas. Single indices provide information about only one metal, whereas the integrated ones give a holistic evaluation. The aim of the research was to assess the temporal trends of three single (Contamination Factor, Enrichment Factor and Geo-accumulation Index) and two integrated (Pollution Load Index, Nemerow index) indices in order to evaluate if the touristic impact caused soil metal (Cr, Cu, Ni and Pb) accumulation. In autumn 2016 and in spring 2016 and 2017, the surface soils (0–10 cm) were collected at eight sites inside the Vesuvius National Park (Southern Italy), characterized by intense tourism from spring to autumn. The metal concentrations were measured in the soils and used to calculate the indices. In addition, the Ecological Risk Factor was calculated and the phytotoxicological assays were performed. The findings showed that the surface soils of the Vesuvius National Park were polluted by Cr, Cu, Ni and Pb, according to both single and integrated indices. The touristic impact would seem to be the main cause of soil metal accumulation, as the highest values of the calculated indices were detected for samples collected at the end of the touristic season and the lowest at the beginning of the touristic season. Anyway, Cu and Pb would seem also to derive by ex situ anthropogenic sources, whereas Cr and Ni also by natural sources, such as spontaneous fires and substrate weathering. Finally, the soils showed phytotoxic effects and low ecological risks. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.",,685-691,,,682,,Sci.

Under the supervision of biologists from NRDI GeoEcoMar, in collaboration with the PhD students from Belgium involved in the PRIDE project, a series of interactive and proactive activities were accomplished, aiming at foster a sense of community and environmental responsibility to the young generation. In total, 30 students of 5 th grade, with ages between 11 and 12 years were involved. The children from “Ciprian Porumbescu” School learned how to identify species belonging to the Ponto-Caspian relicts, recognize and understand the negative impact of the invasive species on the Black Sea biodiversity. The children from Mihail Koiciu School, who visited the R/V Mare Nigrum (in custody of the NRDI GeoEcoMar) guided by the ship’s commander and biologists from GeoEcoMar, explored the complicated but interesting domain of marine science, helped by explanations and demonstrations on research work in biology and geochemistry. The feedback received from the children, assessed by help of questionnaires specially conceived for the targeted category of age and activities carried out, is presented in the paper.

Here, we use a case study and published data along the southeast Brazilian continental shelf to illustrate the concepts and ideas of potential benthic habitat mapping and the importance of having maps on different scales and the potential for using a multi-design approach. The case analysis presented here uses a regional map and distinct criteria (seabed geodiversity and biodiversity, and potential influence of a tailings plume) to define three areas along the continental shelf to be mapped in a high-resolution, as part of a marine monitoring program. The background of the case study is a tailing dam failure disaster that led to the input of iron ore tailings in the ocean, leading to a major environmental disaster. Three areas were chosen, including: a Marine Protected Area (MPA Costa das Algas), a major fishing ground (the Doce River prodelta/depocenter), and an understudied reef area (Forgotten Reefs). Potential benthic habitat mapping was carried out using acoustic surveys (multibeam echosounder acquiring bathymetry and backscatter) and ground-truthing (sediment samples and seafloor image). Results detailed the potential habitats throughout the three areas, providing primary information for the study of benthic habitats and their distribution. The multi-design approach indicated that although a regional analysis can indicate potential vulnerability as a first assessment approach, high-resolution potential habitat mapping (herein, 20 m or finer) is beneficial to evaluate and produce a higher-confidence level for decision-makers. Having an overall view of what and where to collect new and finer data would be best to identify vulnerable areas that, in this case study, could be threatened by plume dispersion and tailings accumulation. Our results support the delineation of priority areas aiming for monitoring, protection and guiding for other studies, besides the consolidation of habitat importance and the integration of various datasets through a hierarchical classification scheme. Although Brazil has never produced a regional or national habitat map for the entire continental margin, there are already conditions to plan, execute and maintain a habitat mapping program, partnering with Universities, Government Institutions (e.g., the Brazilian Navy), and the private sector. In the context of the UN Decade of Ocean Science targets, it is urgent to plan and implement a national database capable of supporting a habitat classification effort on a broader national scale, with the flexibility to support a multi-design or a multi-scale approach.

The estuarine ecosystems found here are very rich from a biological point but are also under many forms of pressure. Attaining the objectives sought out by the establishment of the Marine Park requires to use a wide variety of tools such as governance, science and education. Scientific research is included in the legal mandate of the Marine Park, indicating its importance as a conservation tool. But using science as a conservation tool requires communicating results to the public. Furthermore, since science does not always provide certainty relative to the complexity of marine ecosystems, it is sometimes necessary to have recourse to adaptive management and to the precautionary principle. Bringing together various players such as scientists, managers, local communities and visitors is essential to enable scientific knowledge to orient conservation actions.

Many approaches were deployed in the Saguenay–St. Lawrence Marine Park to address the issue of cohabitation between whales and vessels. Place-based conservation measures aimed at protecting and restoring the tranquility of key areas of SLE beluga critical habitat by managing vessel-based activities were implemented through a marine spatial planning approach. They involved protecting the quietness of the South Channel by avoiding rerouting shipping, establishing of a regulatory area closure in Baie Sainte-Marguerite and of a beluga conservation area without commercial whale-watching in the Upper SLE.

These ecosystems, however, are usually affected by human activities, which may cause a loss and degradation of their ecological status, a decline of their biodiversity, an alteration of their ecological functioning, and a limitation of their ecosystem services. La Pletera salt marshes (NE Spain) are located in a region mainly dominated by agriculture and tourism activities. Part of these wetlands and lagoons has been affected by an incomplete construction of an urban development and in this moment is the focus of a Life+ project, whose aim is to restore this protected area. Several studies have analyzed the role of hydrological regime in nutrients, phytoplankton and zooplankton in this area, however, the role of groundwater was never considered as a relevant factor in the lagoon dynamics, and its influence is still unknown. In this study, the hydrogeological dynamics in La Pletera salt marshes has been analyzed, as a basis to set sustainable management guidelines for this area. In order to determine their dependence on groundwater resources, monthly hydrochemical (with major ions and nutrients) and isotopic (?18OH2O and ?D) campaigns have been conducted, from November 2014 to October 2015. In particular, groundwater from six wells, surface water from two nearby streams and three permanent lagoons, and sea water was considered in these surveys. Taking into account the meteorological data and the water levels in the lagoons, the General Lake Model has been conducted to determine, not only evaporation and rainfall occurring in the lagoons, but also the total inflows and outflows. In addition, the Gonfiantini isotopic model, together with equilibrium chemical-speciation/mass transfer models, has been used to analyze the evaporation and the physicochemical processes affecting the lagoons. Results show that during the dry season groundwater inputs may account for 15–80% of the water in La Pletera lagoons. Besides, water salinity depends on two main processes: 1) mixing of fresh and sea water occurring within the lagoons or in the aquifer; and 2) evaporation. According to the obtained results, the goal of preserving La Pletera lagoons and their salinity conditions implies maintaining groundwater fluxes towards the ocean, and also the hydraulic connectivity of these lagoons with the aquifer. © 2017 The Authors",,793-806,,,552,,J.

This meeting differed substantially from previous IGCs in terms of process, with much of the discussions occurring in ‘informal informals,’ or off-the-record meetings open only to delegates and registered observers. Additionally, in-person participation was extremely limited and observers only had access to web broadcasts, i.e., no in-person interactions with delegates. A draft text of the treaty was circulated in advance and provided the basis for discussion and negotiation at the meeting. This paper examines IGC-4 in line with previous analyses of the first three IGCs, tracing the process and outcomes to date, aiming to understand the factors and players that are building a new BBNJ agreement. Key themes explored include marine genetic resources (MGRs), area-based management tools, including marine protected areas (ABMTs/MPAs), environmental impact assessment (EIA), and capacity building and transfer of marine technology (CB/TMT). Some progress toward consensus has been made, buoyed by intersessional discussions, but several sticking points remain with regard to definitions, content, and processes enshrined in the draft treaty, and a fifth IGC is scheduled to take place from 15 to 26 August 2022. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,146,,,,,,,,Elsevier Ltd,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Mar.

The objective was to carry out the floristic survey of the EPA of Maraponga Lagoon and to prepare a field guide. Botanical collections, field observations, photographs and species identification were carried out. A total of 98 species belonging to 82 genera and 37 botanical families were registered. The most representative families were Fabaceae (18 spp.), Malvaceae (13 spp.), Asteraceae (ten spp.), Rubiaceae (five spp.), Arecaceae, Convolvulaceae and Solanaceae (four spp., each). It was found that the habit of the species predominates the herbaceous size (41 spp.), followed by sub-shrubs (19 spp.), trees (17 spp.), shrubs (ten spp.), climbing plants (seven spp.) and palm trees (four spp.).

These areas are not exempt from the effects generated by a variety of anthropogenic stressors. Coastal biodiversity can provide key information of MPAs health; however, it is not usually considered in MPAs planning process, particularly in the Southwestern Atlantic. In this work, we provide an analysis and discussion of the anthropogenic stressors and the rocky intertidal biodiversity parameters occurring along 10 latitudinal degrees within the major MPAs of the continental Patagonia (Argentina). Specifically, we studied the intensity of 10 social, economic and environmental marine-related anthropogenic stressors and characterized the intertidal biodiversity (biomass, density and size of scorched mussels and its associated communities) in the mid intertidal rocky shore. We found that most of the anthropogenic stressors studied had some level of intensity at all MPAs in Patagonia. In addition, each MPA has unique biodiversity assemblages. Total anthropogenic stress was not directly correlated with the mussel bed parameters or the richness of the associated fauna. Artisanal fisheries, tourism, invasive species and trampling were found to have the highest intensity on the MPAs. Moreover, a negative relation between artisanal fisheries, tourism and invasive species and the biomass and size of mussels was found, along with a negative relation between tourism and density. Furthermore, three MPAs registered the greatest anthropogenic pressure. Our study evidence that although Argentina has significantly advanced in the creation of MPAs in the last decades, the objectives for the conservation of the ecosystems are still narrow. Our results highlight that globally, MPAs need to include the perspective of coastal intertidal biodiversity and their stressors in their management strategies. By doing this, it will contribute to have a more holistic approach and thus it will improve MPAs conservation efforts. © 2024 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,,,8,34,,Aquatic Conserv. Mar. Freshw.

The results have shown a recovery of the abundance of broadband anchovy throughout the 2005-2010 period, showing thus far that the measures taken for the maintenance of the resource have been successful. The activity has been managed through discussions involving people from the fishing sector in order to determine the controversial actions to be taken, that are hard to enforce.

However, previous studies on EWRs estimation lack a comprehensive consideration of wetlands and still suffer from the problem of rough time scales. Prior studies have predominantly concentrated on its core and buffer zones, neglecting a comprehensive analysis of the wetland’s entirety and failing to account for the seasonal variations in EWRs. To fill this gap, we proposed a novel framework for estimating EWRs wetland’s entirety to guide the development of dynamic water replenishment strategies. The grey prediction model was used to project the wetland area under different scenarios and designed water replenishment strategies. We then applied this framework in a key wetland conservation area in China, the Momoge Wetland, which is currently facing issues of areal shrinkage and functional degradation due to insufficient EWRs. Our findings indicate that the maximum, optimal, and minimum EWRs for the Momoge Wetland are 24.14 × 108 m3, 16.65 × 108 m3, and 10.88 × 108 m3, respectively. The EWRs during the overwintering, breeding, and flood periods are estimated at 1.92 × 108 m3, 5.39 × 108 m3, and 8.73 × 108 m3, respectively. Based on the predicted wetland areas under different climatic conditions, the necessary water replenishment volumes for the Momoge Wetland under scenarios of dry-dry-dry, dry-dry-normal, dry-normal-dry, and normal-normal-normal are calculated to be 0.70 × 108 m3, 0.49 × 108 m3, 0.68 × 108 m3, and 0.36 × 108 m3, respectively. In years characterized by drought, the current water replenishment projects are inadequate to meet the wetland’s water needs, highlighting the urgent need for the implementation of multi-source water replenishment techniques to enhance the effectiveness of these interventions. The results of this study provide insights for annual and seasonal water replenishment planning and multi-source water management of wetlands with similar problems as the Momoge Wetland. With these new insights, our novel framework not only advances knowledge on the accuracy of wetland ecological water requirement assessment but also provides a scalable solution for global wetland water resource management, helping to improve the ecosystem’s adaptability to future climate changes. © 2025 by the authors.",,,,1,17,,Water,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,Dry' [; biodegradation; China; climate change; ecological water replenishment; Ecological water replenishment; ecological water requirement; Ecological water requirements; ecosystem health; Momoge Wetland; Momoge wetlands; Multi-Sources; protected area; Replenishment (water resources); Replenishment strategies; seasonality; target system; Target systems; water management; Water requirement level; water requirement levels; Water requirements; water resource; wetland; Wetland area,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Keystone, multipurpose and economically important tree species such as Afzelia africana Sm. are reportedly facing recruitment constraints, yet little is known about how abiotic and biotic factors shape the species seedling dynamics. Here, we monitored the species seedlings over one year across three seasons in West Africa savannahs to determine how conspecific and heterospecific biotic neighborhood and habitat heterogeneity correlate with initial seedling density, leaves’ fungal infection and herbivory and how all these factors combined, influence the species seedling survival. Seedling densities increased with increasing conspecific adult densities, and were highest in tree savannahs and on sandy-silt soils. Leaves’ fungal infection and herbivory were also positively associated with conspecific adult density, but were more abundantly observed in tree savannahs than in shrub savannahs. Seedling survival was constrained on higher slope, and negatively affected by conspecific adult density, especially in shrub savannahs. There was a strong evidence for negative density-dependence effects of conspecific adults on seedling survival, which operated through negative effects of herbivory and fungal infection. Habitat heterogeneity was also an important driver, which modulated biotic factors’ effects on seedling survival: tree savannahs promote positive conspecific density-dependence of seedling fungal infection and herbivory more than shrub savannahs. Nonetheless, seedlings were more sensitive to natural enemies in shrub savannahs, suggesting increased negative conspecific density-dependence effects on seedling survival in less dense vegetation, possibly as a result of enhanced specialization of predators and pathogens on a limited set of species. The study brings important insights into the mechanisms that drive the establishment and survival of the species seedling, which should be considered in the design of management activities aiming at the conservation of this endangered species. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,276,,J.

In order to maximize the ecological benefit for the ocean, a coordinated global effort in marine protected area (MPA) planning is necessary. In this context, ecological connectivity between areas should be considered. Connectivity has been integrated in several previous MPA designs however this usually requires exhaustive larval information (which may not be readily available) and/or complex ocean current simulations (which may be arduous at the transnational scale). In this study, we developed a simple passive drift model of larval dispersal as an alternative approach to integrate connectivity in MPA design. By doing so, we determined larvae source and sink areas between the Philippines and Taiwan, and recorded the time it takes for the virtual larvae from the Philippines to reach the sink zones in Taiwan. We used integer linear programming to identify areas best suited for protection in the Philippines, and found that Batanes, Philippines seeds Green Island and Orchid Island in Taiwan. Travel time of the virtual larvae was estimated to range between 7 and 12 days. We also demonstrate that the integrated approach to maximize habitat area and minimize larvae travel time yields promising results for marine conservation. This approach could be instrumental in marine conservation planning, especially in the formulation of a transboundary MPA network. © 2024 Associaçăo Brasileira de Cięncia Ecológica e Conservaçăo",,146-155,,2,22,,Perspect.

The site belongs to an UNESCO protected area with an important number of visitors per year. Therefore, it is of particular interest to evaluate the potential rockfall hazard along the cliff. With the objective of evaluating the feasibility of an operational technique to monitor the cliff using ambient vibrations, two seismic stations were installed during six months (from 2016 November to 2017 April) in order to identify and monitor the resonant frequencies of the a priori unstable rock mass. Several techniques of classical seismic monitoring are tested on the site: single-station spectral analysis for identification of frequency peaks related to the unstable mass, relative spectral amplifications between stations and the operational modal analysis of the cliff. In particular, data analysis from a temporary campaign of two days of continuous recordings by a linear array of seismometers perpendicular to the sea cliff highlights the main characteristics of the ground motion: the overall motion of the promontory mainly in the north-south direction (perpendicular to the coast) and bending vertical and parallel to the cliff (east-west direction) at higher frequencies. The strong vertical and east-west seismic amplifications are also confirmed by the analysis of five local seismic events recorded at both semi-permanent stations. Even if ambient vibrations and seismic data analysis allows to decipher the dynamics of the Sutta-Rocca overhang, we conclude that classical seismic monitoring of just one single frequency peak with a limited number of sensors is not recommended for this particular site.  © 2020 The Author(s) 2020.

Blue whales and bowhead whales in the North-East Atlantic face several threats, such as climate change, ship strikes, pollution, and entanglement in fishing gear. Consequently, the OSPAR (“Oslo-Paris Convention for the Protection of the Marine Environment of the North-East Atlantic”) Commission recognised their need for protection and included them on the OSPAR List of Threatened and/or Declining Species. Two actions to protect these endangered species that OSPAR Contracting Parties have agreed on are (i) identifying areas that play an essential role in the species’ life cycle—subsequently called key habitats, and (ii) ensuring that those key habitats are covered by OSPAR marine protected areas (MPAs). In addition, OSPAR has committed to expanding its network of MPAs and other effective area-based conservation measures by 2030 to cover at least 30% of the OSPAR maritime area (termed the 30 × 30 target) from today’s approx. 11%. In this paper, we present the results of modelling key habitats for the bowhead and blue whales in the North-East Atlantic, including Arctic waters. Due to the sparse data situation for these species, we apply presence-only modelling methods. As this method can, in principle, produce somewhat biased results, we recommend that systematic, regular surveys on these species in Arctic waters be significantly intensified for future analyses to overcome the data paucity and allow using presence–absence/count data modelling approaches. Key habitats of blue whales were identified between Iceland and Svalbard, extending to the Azores. For bowhead whales, key habitats were identified in the Fram Strait. However, our findings show that only 11.8% of blue whale key habitats and 4.1% of bowhead whale key habitats are currently covered by OSPAR MPAs. To protect 30% of key habitats for these species in the most efficient way, our analyses suggest that suitable areas to designate new OSPAR MPAs are located around the Azores for blue whales and in the Fram Strait for bowhead whales. With these additional MPAs, OSPAR would substantially improve the protection of the two endangered species and, at the same time, progress towards its 30 × 30 target. © 2024 by the authors.",,,,8,12,,J.

Artificial dens, anchored on rocky substrates at a depth of 38–42 m in a temporary Fully Protected Area (FPA) off the western coast of Sardinia (central western Mediterranean Sea), showed their effectiveness as a temporary and/or safe site for Octopus vulgaris spawning. The suitability of these artificial dens was demonstrated by the presence of egg strings and females in parental care, and by the fact that all of the brooding-phases until the hatching had taken place inside. The presence of abundant cobbles, appeared to be a key factor in the building of a solid barrier for protection at the entrance of the spawning artificial dens, similar to those seen in natural dens. In addition, our results demonstrate the potential coexistence of artificial dens with natural ones, suggesting their potential use as integrative tool for the management of O. vulgaris. Close collaboration with fishermen in the framework of a CFR project within FPA may increase the success of this management action, through the enforcement of the area.

However, further loss and degradation of remaining wetland habitats might lead to a configuration and size of stopovers that is no longer sufficient to ensure long-term survival of waterbird populations. By identifying optimal conservation targets to maintain overall habitat availability en route, we can accommodate an as yet absent functional connectivity component in larger management frameworks for migratory waterbirds, such as the Ramsar Convention and the EU Natura 2000 Network. Using a graph-based habitat availability metric (Equivalent Connected Area) we determine the functional connectivity of wetland networks for seven migratory waterbirds with divergent habitat requirements. Analyses are performed at two spatial extents both spanning the Mediterranean Sea and centered around Greece (Balkan-Cyrenaica and Greece-Cyrenaica). We create species-specific suitable habitat maps and account for human disturbance by species-specific disturbance buffers, based on expert estimates of Flight Initiation Distances. At both spatial extents we quantitatively determine the habitat networks' overall functional connectivity and identify wetland sites that are crucial for maintaining a well-connected network. We show that the wetland networks for both spatial extents are relatively well connected and identify several wetland sites in Greece and Libya as important for maintaining connectivity. The application of disturbance buffers results in wetland site-specific reduction of suitable habitat area (0.90-7.36%) and an overall decrease of the network's connectivity (0.65-6.82%). In addition, we show that the habitat networks of a limited set of species can be combined into a single network which accounts for their autoecological requirements. We conclude that targeted management in few but specific wetland complexes could benefit migratory waterbird populations. Deterioration of these vital wetland sites in Greece and Libya will have disproportionate consequences to the waterbird populations they support.

The objective of this study is to characterize, in terms of size, color, morphology and polymeric nature, the Large Microplastics (LMPs), i.e., plastic objects within 1 and 5 mm, sampled on three beaches located within the coastal macro-area of the Pelagos Sanctuary, an international protected zone in the north-western Mediterranean. The beaches have similar morphological characteristics but different degrees of urbanization. LMPs were sampled seasonally for one year. The polymeric nature of a representative subsample of the collected LMPs was investigated using a portable Raman instrument, to assess the feasibility of in situ characterization. In this study, 26,486 items were sorted by typology (Expanded Polystyrene-EPS, fragments, and resin pellets), size, and for fragments and resin pellets, also by color and chemical nature. Statistical data on the quantity, density, type, spatial distribution, and seasonality of the sampled LMPs are presented. Differences in LMP abundance and composition were detected among sites. A seasonality trend emerges from our statistical analysis, depending on both LMP typology and urbanization degrees of the beaches. Our data do not show the existence of a relationship between the size of the investigated MPs and their color, while they suggest that the type of polymer influences the degree of fragmentation. This underlines the need to further investigate the mechanisms leading to the production and dispersion of MPs in coastal areas, taking into account both the urbanization of the beach, and therefore the possible sources of input, and the different types of MPs. Finally, a Raman portable instrument proved to be a valuable aid in performing in situ polymeric characterization of LMPs. © 2020 by the authors.

The project has multiple effects: (1) to prompt students to broaden their scientific knowledge on topics not strictly related to scholastic curricula, making them aware of current environmental problems and teaching them how to solve them; (2) to engage an increasing number of volunteers in marine litter monitoring activities; and (3) to contribute to a common protocol for data acquisition, useful for both environmental and scientific purposes, helping scientists to overcome the lack of current data on marine litter. © 2015, Marine Technology Society Inc.

However this kind of stocking method does not always achieve the expected results, in particular because it fails to limit colonization by woody plants.This is the case in the relict xero-halophytic grasslands of the northern Mediterranean coastal region, subjected to widespread colonization by the shrub Phillyrea angustifolia despite the presence of extensive grazing. In this study, we investigated, for an equal annual stocking rate, the respective impact of high stocking density applied over a short period (mob grazing) and low stocking density applied over a long period on both P. angustifolia and herbaceous cover, using an in situ experimental design run for 7 years. Only mob grazing was effective both in controlling the establishment and increasing the mortality of P. angustifolia individuals. We did not find any difference after the 7 years of experimentation between the two stocking methods with regard to the herbaceous community parameters tested: species richness, diversity, evenness, contribution of annual characteristic species. By contrast, the exclusion of domestic grazing led to a strong reduction of these values.The use of mob grazing may be well suited for meeting conservation goals such as maintaining open habitats in these grasslands. © 2016, Springer Science+Business Media New York.",,455-463,,3,59,,Environ.

MPAs can also be part of fisheries management systems, but there is a lack of knowledge about their wider scale impacts on fish stocks, ecosystem and fisheries. Adjacent fisheries can increase their catches near closed areas, but such effects are delayed until after MPA establishment and are often limited over distance. Even though local specificities in ecosystems and fishing resources lead to high variability in MPA effects, four major criteria modulate the efficiency of MPAs for fisheries management: (1) the size of the closed area; (2) the level of protection of essential habitats for exploited resources; (3) MPA integration as part of wider integrated fisheries management plans; and (4) efficient monitoring and regulation systems, including participative decision making, to ensure that restrictive measures are respected. © EDP Sciences, IFREMER, IRD 2013.",,159-170,,2,26,,Aquatic Living Resour.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,APO ISLAND; BENEFITS; catch statistics; CLOSED AREA; decision making; ECOSYSTEM APPROACH; Fisheries management; fishery management; Fishing reserve effects; LONG-TERM; marine ecosystem; Marine Protected Areas (MPAs); Marine reserve network; meta-analysis; POPULATION; protected area; qualitative analysis; REEF FISH COMMUNITIES; RESERVES; SIZE; SUSTAINABILITY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This approach is transparent and scientifically defensible, but there has been little research on how it is affected by data quality and quantity. Location: English Channel. Methods: We used a macrobenthic dataset containing 1314 sampling points and assigned each point to its associated habitat type. We then used the SAR-based approach and tested whether this was influenced by changes in (i) the number of sampling points used to generate estimates of total species richness for each habitat type; (ii) the nonparametric estimator used to calculate species richness; and (iii) the level of habitat classification employed. We then compared our results with targets from a similar national-level study that is currently being used to identify Marine Conservation Zones in the UK. Results: We found that targets were affected by all of the tested factors. Sample size had the greatest impact, with specific habitat targets increasing by up to 45% when sample size increased from 50 to 300. We also found that results based on the Bootstrap estimator of species richness, which is the most widely used for setting targets, were more influenced by sample size than the other tested estimators. Finally, we found that targets were higher when using broader habitat classification levels or a larger study region. However, this could also be a sample size effect because these larger habitat areas generally contained more sampling points. Main conclusions: Habitat targets based on the SAR can be strongly influenced by sample size, choice of richness estimator and the level of habitat classification. Whilst setting habitat targets using best-available data should play a key role in conservation planning, further research is needed to develop methods that better account for sampling effort. © 2012 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,13-Jan,,1,19,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,BIODIVERSITY; bootstrapping; CAPE FLORISTIC REGION; COMMUNITIES; conservation planning; data assimilation; data set; DECISION-MAKING; EASTERN ENGLISH-CHANNEL; English Channel; habitat targets; Habitat targets; habitat type; macrobenthos; Marine Conservation Zones; marine park; marine protected areas; Marine protected areas; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; PERFORMANCE; protected area; RESERVE SELECTION; RICHNESS ESTIMATORS; SOUTH-AFRICA; species richness; species-area relationship; Species-area relationship; systematic conservation planning; Systematic conservation planning,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A number of studies have examined the impact of the associated European policy on the representation of species and habitats but there is no comprehensive review of their combined impact on marine conservation in Europe. Here a systematic conservation planning framework is used to conduct such a review and compare the existing legislation to three elements of best practice, which are designed to identify MPA networks that achieve conservation goals whilst increasing the likelihood of implementation. In particular, this review investigates the extent to which legislation: (i) translates broad policy goals into explicit targets; (ii) incorporates socio-economic data into the planning process; and (iii) requires a social assessment. Whilst this legislation has widespread political support and has underpinned the rapid expansion of MPA networks, this review shows it largely fails to incorporate these key components from systematic conservation planning. Therefore, if European approaches to marine conservation are to fulfil their goal of halting marine biodiversity loss, it is essential they link existing policy frameworks with transparent strategies that account for local conditions and support implementation. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,289-295,,1,39,,Mar.

Despite this, current recommendations on ideal MPA size and spacing vary widely, and data are lacking on how these constraints might influence the overall spatial characteristics, socio-economic impacts, and connectivity of the resultant MPA networks. To address this problem, we tested the impact of applying different MPA size constraints in English waters. We used the Marxan spatial prioritization software to identify a network of MPAs that met conservation feature targets, whilst minimizing impacts on fisheries; modified the Marxan outputs with the MinPatch software to ensure each MPA met a minimum size; and used existing data on the dispersal distances of a range of species found in English waters to investigate the likely impacts of such spatial constraints on the region's biodiversity. Increasing MPA size had little effect on total network area or the location of priority areas, but as MPA size increased, fishing opportunity cost to stakeholders increased. In addition, as MPA size increased, the number of closely connected sets of MPAs in networks and the average distance between neighboring MPAs decreased, which consequently increased the proportion of the planning region that was isolated from all MPAs. These results suggest networks containing large MPAs would be more viable for the majority of the region's species that have small dispersal distances, but dispersal between MPA sets and spill-over of individuals into unprotected areas would be reduced. These findings highlight the importance of testing the impact of applying different MPA size constraints because there are clear trade-offs that result from the interaction of size, number, and distribution of MPAs in a network. © 2015, Society for Conservation Biology.",,1615-1625,,6,29,,Conserv.

However, whilst these software tools are designed to identify MPA networks that both represent biodiversity and minimize impacts on stakeholders, they do not consider complex ecological processes. Thus, it is difficult to determine the impacts that proposed MPAs could have on marine ecosystem health, fisheries and fisheries sustainability. Using the eastern English Channel as a case study, this paper explores an approach to address these issues by identifying a series of MPA networks using the Marxan and Marxan with Zones conservation planning software and linking them with a spatially explicit ecosystem model developed in Ecopath with Ecosim. We then use these to investigate potential trade-offs associated with adopting different MPA management strategies. Limited-take MPAs, which restrict the use of some fishing gears, could have positive benefits for conservation and fisheries in the eastern English Channel, even though they generally receive far less attention in research on MPA network design. Our findings, however, also clearly indicate that no-take MPAs should form an integral component of proposed MPA networks in the eastern English Channel, as they not only result in substantial increases in ecosystem biomass, fisheries catches and the biomass of commercially valuable target species, but are fundamental to maintaining the sustainability of the fisheries. Synthesis and applications. Using the existing software tools Marxan with Zones and Ecopath with Ecosim in combination provides a powerful policy-screening approach. This could help inform marine spatial planning by identifying potential conflicts and by designing new regulations that better balance conservation objectives and stakeholder interests. In addition, it highlights that appropriate combinations of no-take and limited-take marine protected areas might be the most effective when making trade-offs between long-term ecological benefits and short-term political acceptability. © 2015 British Ecological Society.",,665-674,,3,52,,J.

Here we show that while this reflects a lack of progress in many low- and middle-income countries, a few of these nations have met or exceeded international commitments. To provide an in-depth explanation of how this was achieved in Gabon, we summarize the lessons learnt by our consortium of policy makers and practitioners who helped implement a comprehensive and ecologically representative network of 20 MPAs. We show the importance of creating a national framework, building long-term stakeholder support, and focusing on research that guides implementation and policy; and outline a four-step approach that countries and donors could use as an example to help meet international commitments.

We used acoustic telemetry to quantify the movements of giant trevally, a large coral reef top predator, at 5 atolls in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands Marine National Monument. We did not observe any inter-atoll movements but found that giant trevally were attached to core activity areas from which they made periodic atoll-wide excursions of up to 29 km. Within the core areas, the tagged fish exhibited diel habitat shifts. We identified Rapture Reef at French Frigate Shoals (FFS) atoll as a spawning site, where giant trevally form seasonal mating aggregations. Giant trevally that use Rapture Reef as their core daytime area live there year-round, whereas those that occupy other areas of FFS migrate to Rapture Reef in the summertime during specific phases of the moon. Although giant trevally were wide-ranging and would require large marine protected areas (e.g. entire atolls or islands) to protect their entire range, core activity areas and spawning sites for giant trevally could be contained within relatively small marine protected areas. Identification of spawning sites could assist in the establishment of focused marine protected areas that, while quite small in size, could have significant impact in preserving the spawning biomass of this species. Very large marine protected areas are not feasible in most heavily populated areas, hence effective alternative management strategies must be found for this fishery-targeted, wide-ranging top predator. We suggest using a combination of relatively small marine protected areas, to protect core activity areas and spawning sites for giant trevally, and conventional measures such as minimum size or 'slot' limits to further safeguard spawning stocks. © Inter-Research 2007.",,13-25,,,333,,Mar.

While most surveys have focused on the broad-scale distribution patterns of sponge grounds (100s-1000s m), only rarely have the finer-scale (<10 m) spatial distribution patterns of the primary organisms been studied. In this study, the autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) Hugin 1000 was used to map an area of an arctic sponge ground located on the summit of the Schulz Bank (Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge), with the aim of detecting small-scale spatial patterns produced by the dominant megafauna. Using low-light cameras to construct a photomosaic comprising of 9,953 images and a virtual quadrat spatial sampling approach, density hotspots of the most prominent megafauna were visualized. The primary megafauna detected were demosponges, hexactinellids, ascidians, cnidarians, echinoderms, and demersal fish species. Most megafauna, like the primary structure-forming sponge species Geodia parva and Stelletta rhaphidiophora, were distributed evenly throughout the sample area, though species like Lissodendoryx (Lissodendoryx) complicata and Gersemia rubiformis displayed clear fine-scale spatial preferences. The three demersal fish species, Macrourus berglax, Reinhardtius hippogIossoides, and Amblyraja hyperborea, were uniformly distributed throughout the sample area. Based on the presence of skate egg cases and juveniles within many images, it is likely that the site is being used as a nursery ground for A. hyperborea. This study demonstrates the potential of using AUVs to detect fine-scale spatial patterns of the structure-forming sponges and demersal fish species. The use of AUVs for deepwater benthic surveys can help visualize how fauna (e.g. fish) utilise deep-sea habitats, and act as a tool for quantifying individuals through relatively unbiased means (e.g. pre-programmed track, no sampling).

A flagship example is the Mesoamerican Biological Corridor (MBC), which aims to connect protected forest areas between Mexico and Panama to allow dispersal and gene flow of forest organisms. Because forests across Central America have continued to degrade, the functioning of the MBC has been questioned, but reliable estimates of species occurrence were unavailable. Large mammals are suitable indicators of forest functioning, so we assessed their conservation status across the Isthmus of Panama, the narrowest section of the MBC. We used large-scale camera-trap surveys and hierarchical multispecies occupancy models in a Bayesian framework to estimate the occupancy of 9 medium to large mammals and developed an occupancy-weighted connectivity metric to evaluate species-specific functional connectivity. White-lipped peccary (Tayassu pecari), jaguar (Panthera onca), giant anteater (Myrmecophaga tridactyla), white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), and tapir (Tapirus bairdii) had low expected occupancy along the MBC in Panama. Puma (Puma concolor), red brocket deer (Mazama temama), ocelot (Leopardus pardalis), and collared peccary (Pecari tajacu), which are more adaptable, had higher occupancy, even in areas with low forest cover near infrastructure. However, the majority of species were subject to ?1 gap that was larger than their known dispersal distances, suggesting poor connectivity along the MBC in Panama. Based on our results, forests in Darien, Donoso–Santa Fe, and La Amistad International Park are critical for survival of large terrestrial mammals in Panama and 2 areas need restoration. © 2019 Society for Conservation Biology",,207-219,,1,34,,Conserv.

In buffer zones, the effects of sanitary management on tree mortality remained limited due to the migration of bark beetles from unmanaged areas. Context: The European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus L.) is regarded as an economically significant pest of Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst). However, in protected areas, it is regarded as a keystone species for biodiversity. This results in two contrasting management strategies that meet in buffer zones of protected areas. Aims: To assess which environmental and management variables are most important for tree mortality in an ongoing bark beetle outbreak and to gain a better understanding of the challenges and recommendations for buffer zone management under the influence of nearby unmanaged stands in a protected area. Methods: Norway spruce tree mortality was assessed in 419 forest stands in the High Tatra Mountains. To account for spatial and temporal autocorrelations, generalized additive mixed models (GAMM) were used, and an information-theory (I-T) approach was adopted for model selection to test the influence of environmental variables, natural disturbances and the previous year’s sanitary cutting on bark beetle-caused tree mortality. Results: In buffer zones, P. abies tree mortality caused by I. typographus was positively correlated to natural disturbances and sanitary cutting in the previous year. Conclusion: The previous year’s sanitary cutting, maximum temperature sums, wind disturbance and trees left in no-intervention stands contributed to tree mortality in buffer zones. In these zones, the decrease of tree mortality in response to sanitary management remained limited due to the migration of bark beetles from unmanaged areas. However, sanitary management in buffer zones remains necessary for the isolation of bark beetle outbreaks in unmanaged areas. © 2017, INRA and Springer-Verlag France SAS.",,,,4,74,,Ann.

Their nesting behaviors are influenced by geographical and ecological variables including habitat type, slope, elevation gradients, and sometimes anthropogenic pressures. This study aimed to assess environmental variables that influenced Ebo gorillas' (Gorilla gorilla) nesting behavior in relation to nesting site selection, nest types, and nesting materials. We collected data from January 2013 to November 2017 along reconnaissance tracks (recce, hereafter) using the marked nest counting method. We recorded an encounter rate of 0.16 nesting sites per km, with an average number of four nests per gorilla group. The mean nest diameter was 90.33 +/- 23.92 cm (n = 640, range 25-199 cm). Ebo gorillas preferred nesting sites at high altitude located in grassland areas with open canopy, ligneous undergrowth composition, and very closed visibility. They used more than 281 plant species as materials for nesting, with Marantaceae and Zingiberaceae species being the most common material used. Terrestrial herbaceous nests were the most common nest type (55%). During the dry season, gorillas visited more often the mature forest habitat and mostly constructed arboreal nests. Finally, reuse of nesting sites was minimal (16%), and re-visitation intervals ranged from 3 days to 33 months. Our study is the first systematic investigation of gorilla nesting behavior within the Ebo forest, constituting therefore an important starting point for the long-term conservation planning for this little-known population.",,,,2,69,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000945817100002,,,,,,,Abundance; ABUNDANCE; BIEGA-NATIONAL-PARK; CENSUS; CHIMPANZEES; Ebo forest; Gorilla; HABITAT USE; LOWLAND GORILLAS; MOUNTAIN; Nest type; Nesting site; PROTECTED AREA; RESERVE; TROGLODYTES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Aims We assessed the effect of the native dwarf shrub Helichrysum species on orchid species in a protected mountainous grassland system in Tanzania. Methods We selected five Helichrysum shrub-dominated blocks and applied four treatments in each, i.e. no or low encroachment (<20% Helichrysum cover; 'low cover'), high encroachment (>50% Helichrysum cover; 'high cover'), cutting all stems of Helichrysum shrubs to ground level ('stem cut') and removing both stems and roots of all Helichrysum shrubs ('uprooted'). We then compared orchid species diversity, abundance and functional traits by using a mixed linear model across treatments. Key results Orchid species diversity and abundance were significantly lower in 'high cover' plots than in other treatments. In 'high cover' plots, orchid species such as Disa robusta, Satyrium acutirostrum, and S. sphaeranthum had a significantly lower chlorophyll content than they did in 'low cover' plots. The 'uprooting' treatment showed significantly higher orchid species diversity in the second field season. Conclusion The expansion of Helichrysum shrubs adversely affected orchid abundance, diversity, and individual vigour, which in turn affected the regenerative ability of orchids. Implications We suggest that management should focus on shrub removal, because only 'cutting' had a beneficial effect on orchids. Shrub removal should be focused on areas of high shrub cover to promote further orchid species growth in this mountainous grassland of Tanzania.",,,,8,72,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001350958400001,,,,,,,Africa; below- and aboveground competition; COMPETITION; CONSERVATION; cutting; DIVERSITY; DRY-MATTER CONTENT; FACILITATION; Helichrysum splendidum; Kitulo National Park; LEAF-AREA; LIGHT-INTENSITY; plant-plant interactions; POPULATION-DYNAMICS; protected area; TERRESTRIAL ORCHIDS; uprooting; WOODY PLANT ENCROACHMENT,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Despite increasing recognition of the importance of including aspects of ecological functioning in PA design, the physical characteristics of habitats and simple measures of species diversity inform most PA designations. Marine and terrestrial ecologists have recently been using biological traits to assess community dynamics, functioning, and vulnerability to anthropogenic impacts. Here, we explore potential trait-based marine applications to advance PA design. We recommend strategies to integrate biological traits into (a) conservation objectives (e.g., by assessing and predicting impacts and vulnerability), (b) PA spatial planning (e.g., mapping ecosystem functions and functional diversity hot spots), and (c) time series monitoring protocols (e.g., using functional traits to detect recoveries). We conclude by emphasizing the need for pragmatic tools to improve the efficacy of spatial planning and monitoring efforts. © 2021 Annual Reviews Inc.. All rights reserved.",,421-443,,,13,,Annu. Rev.

These 34 wetlands were surveyed at the end of August and beginning of September Oust before the opening of the hunting season) and then at the end of October (about 50 days after the opening of the hunting season). The first hypothesis was that the reserves and the huntable areas had the same habitat qualities and that, before the opening of the hunting season, species richness and abundance would be similar in both categories of sites. The second hypothesis, based on literature reviews, was that reserves would be used more by waterbirds than huntable sites after the opening of the hunting season. Our results show that at the end of August and beginning of September, hunting reserves had on average 87% fewer species (95% confidence interval bounds, 95% Cl, 50-97%) and 97% fewer birds (95% Cl 82-99%) than areas hunted. After hunting opened, reserves had on average 63% fewer species (95% Cl 12-84%) but no more birds than huntable areas, even though weather conditions were much more favourable for waterfowl and at least 5-50 times greater abundance was expected in hunting reserves. The results at the end of October are confirmed even if only the 22 late migrant species (with a migration peak in October or later) are considered. Our work concludes that hunting reserves are less attractive for waterbirds than surrounding wetlands, probably because they are not of sufficiently good quality to meet their needs. This situation is probably exacerbated by various developments designed to attract waterbirds to huntable areas. In conclusion, it is requested that the location of the hunting reserves be modified to meet their legal objectives and the objectives of maintaining the biodiversity of the various protection classifications of the Drugeon basin (IBA, Natura 2000 site, Ramsar site). © 2023 Societe d'Etudes Ornithologiques.

We used meta-analyses of published data to address the questions of how and over what time frames marine assemblages change within no-take marine reserves as they recover from fishing and other human uses. We used 20 studies of coastal fish assemblages from 31 temperate and tropical locations, reporting abundances, and in some cases biomass, of 10-134 species from reserve and reference conditions (i.e., conditions in nearby fished sites or before reserve establishment) spanning 1-25 years of protection. Synthesis of data from these diverse sets of assemblages showed that: (1) a species' level of exploitation, trophic level, and the duration of protection through the no-take reserve explain small but significant amounts of variation in individual species responses to protection, with only species that are targeted by fishing or by aquarium trade showing overall enhanced abundances in protected areas, and increasing positive effects of protection on abundances at top trophic levels through time; (2) up to a third of species in different studies (19% on average) appeared to be negatively affected by protection, indicating that indirect effects of protection through competitive or predatory interactions may be common; and (3) variation and lags in species responses to protection resulted in protected assemblages diverging from reference conditions, with greater proportions of total fish biomass at top trophic levels in protected compared to fished assemblages. These results indicate that marine reserves are effective in enhancing local abundances of exploited species and restoring the structure of whole communities, though these changes occur through a series of transient states and, for some communities, over long time frames (decades). In contrast with the more predictable increases of aggregate community variables such as total abundance and biomass, individual species and community structure exhibited broad variation in their responses to protection. Marine protected areas represent multiple human-exclusion ""experiments,"" replicated in a variety of ecosystem types and geographic locations, providing key insights on community-wide impacts of the removal of human extraction. Long-term monitoring of community trajectories in marine protected areas and modeling studies scaling up local effects to relevant spatial and temporal scales are needed to increase our ability to protect and restore whole marine systems and to set realistic targets for the conservation and restoration of specific assemblages.",,1709-1723,,6,14,,Ecol.

MPAs are an important management tool that can either help or hurt local livelihoods, depending on how they are developed, designed, and implemented. It is not unusual that fishermen resist the establishment or expansion of MPAs. This is usually done because fishermen may fear a reduction in their livelihood and also a decrease in their ability to access to their fisheries. The establishment of MPAs may therefore result in conflicts between fishers and state agencies. A further issue is that there may be increased conflicts between fishers and the tourism sector. This paper presents a qualitative analysis of stakeholders involved in the fisheries sector and the extent to which marine conservation impacts on their livelihoods. Extended interviews were undertaken with 26 stakeholders including fishermen, divers and dive centres. The study tried to address the issues through a communication and educational campaign drafted through higher education institutions. Research generally points towards the effective importance of incorporating stakeholders in meaningful participation for effective marine conservation planning and management. In actual fact MPAs are more likely to meet their biological and social goals if the human dimensions is integrated into the MPA design and evaluation process.

EU member states have legal responsibilities for evaluating the condition of and maintaining their national networks. While it is desirable to maintain the condition of the N2k network or even improve it by habitat restoration, it is a fact that national environmental bodies operate under budgetary constraints - money available for conservation is limited. Consequently, there may be a need to prioritize targeting of conservation effort in and around the N2k network. In this study we develop a high-resolution spatial conservation prioritization for the Finnish national N2k network, using data about the distribution and quality of 68 N2k habitats occurring in Finland.

Human influence on the landscape may lead to the development of differentiated landscape units that originate from past use and may be related to the presence of certain species. This study investigated the presence of the palm Euterpe edulis and its current and past importance in landscape units established by a community of German descendants located in southern Brazil. The objectives of this study were to characterize the use of the species, to identify the importance of E. edulis for the German immigrant community, to identify past and current uses of E. edulis, to describe the historical use of the landscape, and lastly, to identify landscape units in which E. edulis is found. Methods: The researched community is composed of people of German descent residing in southern Brazil. A variety of research tools were used to achieve the objectives of the research. Semi-structured interviews and free-listings were conducted in all family units. The interviews focused on groups of people in the community who had current or historical connection with the species. Group workshops and guided tours were conducted to identify different landscape units. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, use-value index, citation frequency, salience index, and informant perception analysis. Results: Over the historical period studied, the community demonstrated changes with respect to economic activities. These changes are reflected in the transformation of the landscape. The species E. edulis was and still is very important for people in the community; its importance is reflected in its high use value, citation frequency and salience.

Human activities are being changed inside MPAs in two ways: humans as top predators are generally being removed, but in turn they could come back at great numbers as visitors. Many authors have studied the impact of visitors, and the results highlight that the consequences can be very substantial and may represent a severe threat to the overall diversity of marine communities. To date, the documented effects of human recreational activities on natural communities are restricted to assessing the consequences of trampling over intertidal and upper infralittoral areas, boat anchoring in seagrass meadows and tropical reefs, or SCUBA-diving. In this paper we review the available literature world-wide on the effects of human recreational activities in marine communities. The objective is to address the extent of these impacts and to highlight the gaps of knowledge to be filled in order to optimise decision making on research, monitoring, and management of Mediterranean MPAs. A specific plan for managing tourism use in each Mediterranean MPA should be designated.

Thousands of such projects have been conducted in the United States and other countries through the involvement of private developers, landowners, land trusts, and government agencies. Previous research has demonstrated the potential value of conservation development for conserving species, ecological functions, and other resource values on private lands, especially when traditional sources of conservation funding are not available. Nevertheless, the aggregate extent and effects of conservation development were previously unknown. To address this gap, we estimated the extent and trends of conservation development in the United States and characterized its key attributes to understand its aggregate contribution to land-conservation and growth-management objectives. We interviewed representatives from land trusts, planning agencies, and development companies, searched the Internet for conservation development projects and programs, and compiled existing databases of conservation development projects. We collected data on 3884 projects encompassing 1.38 million ha. About 43% of the projects targeted the conservation of specific plant or animal species or ecological communities of conservation concern; 84% targeted the protection of native ecosystems representative of the project area; and 42% provided buffers to existing protected areas. The percentage of protected land in conservation development projects ranged from <40% to >99%, and the effects of these projects on natural resources differed widely. We estimate that conservation development projects have protected roughly 4 million ha of land in the United States and account for about 25% of private-land conservation activity nationwide. ©2011 Society for Conservation Biology.",,697-707,,4,25,,Conserv.

Location: Global assessment. Methods: We present a new global distribution map of tropical dry forest derived from the recently developed MODIS Vegetation Continuous Fields (VCF) product, which depicts percentage tree cover at a resolution of 500 m, combined with previously defined maps of biomes. This distribution map was overlaid with spatial data to estimate the exposure of tropical dry forests to a number of different threats: climate change, habitat fragmentation, fire, human population density and conversion to cropland. The extent of tropical dry forest currently protected was estimated by overlaying the forest map with a global data set of the distribution of protected areas. Results: It is estimated that 1,048,700 km(2) of tropical dry forest remains, distributed throughout the three tropical regions. More than half of the forest area (54.2%) is located within South America, the remaining area being almost equally divided between North and Central America, Africa and Eurasia, with a relatively small proportion (3.8%) occurring within Australasia and Southeast Asia. Overall, c. 97% of the remaining area of tropical dry forest is at risk from one or more of the threats considered, with highest percentages recorded for Eurasia. The relative exposure to different threats differed between regions: while climate change is relatively significant in the Americas, habitat fragmentation and fire affect a higher proportion of African forests, whereas agricultural conversion and human population density are most influential in Eurasia. Evidence suggests that c. 300,000 km(2) of tropical dry forest now coincide with some form of protected area, with 71.8% of this total being located within South America. Main conclusions: Virtually all of the tropical dry forests that remain are currently exposed to a variety of different threats, largely resulting from human activity. Taking their high biodiversity value into consideration, this indicates that tropical dry forests should be accorded high conservation priority. The results presented here could be used to identify which forest areas should be accorded highest priority for conservation action. In particular, the expansion of the global protected area network, particularly in Mesoamerica, should be given urgent consideration.",,491-505,,3,33,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000235256700010,,,,,,,AVHRR; biodiversity; climate change; CLIMATE-CHANGE SIMULATION; deforestation; dry forests; fire; FRAMEWORK; GREENHOUSE-GAS; MAP; OCEAN-ATMOSPHERE MODEL; protected areas; REPRESENTATION; threat; VARIABILITY; vulnerability; VULNERABILITY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Within this context, the awareness of the spatial distribution of potential unwanted catches is important for devising management measures aimed to decrease discards. This study analyzed the distribution of Hot Spot density areas of demersal fish and crustaceans below the Minimum Conservation Reference Size (MCRS) in four different southern European seas: continental Portuguese coast, Catalan Sea, South of Sicily, Liguria and northern Tyrrhenian Seas using both bottom trawl survey data and information on the spatial distribution of commercial fisheries. Critical areas for discarding were identified as zones where the highest densities of individuals below MCRS were consistently recorded throughout a series of years. Results clearly showed a patchy distribution of undersized individuals in each investigated area, highlighting the overlap between high density patches of both discards and fishing effort. The present findings provide a relevant knowledge for supporting the application of spatial-based management actions, such as the designation of Fisheries Restricted Areas (FRAs), in order to minimize the by-catch of undersized specimens and improve the sustainability of demersal fisheries. © Copyright © 2021 Milisenda, Garofalo, Fiorentino, Colloca, Maynou, Ligas, Musumeci, Bentes, Gonçalves, Erzini, Russo, D’Andrea and Vitale.",,,,,8,,Front.

The potential protective effects of ? muricholic acid (?-MC), another 7-?-hydroxylated bile salt, have not previously been studied in TLC cholestasis. Aims: To study the effect of ?-MC on TLC induced cholestasis and also to investigate further the effects of agents affecting intracellular signalling, notably DBcAMP (a cell permeable cAMP analogue) and several protein kinase inhibitors. Methods: Functional studies were carried out analysing the proportion of hepatocyte couplets able to accumulate the fluorescent bile acid analogue cholyl-lysyl-fluorescein (CLF) into their sealed canalicular vacuole (cVA of CLF assay). Results: It was found that both ?-MC and DBcAMP were as effective as TUDC in protecting against TLC induced cholestasis. The PKC inhibitors staurosporin and H7 but not the specific protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor KT5720 abolished the protective effects of TUDC and ?-MC. BAPTA/AM, a chelator of intracellular Ca2+, significantly decreased the protective effect of both bile salts, and that of DBcAMP. PKC and PKA inhibitors had no effect on protection with DBcAMP. Conclusions: ?-MC was as effective as TUDC in protecting against TLC cholestasis. Mobilisation of Ca2+ and activation of PKC, but not of PKA, are involved in the anticholestatic effect of the two 7-?-hydroxylated bile salts.

This insight underpins the finding that fishing persists in most MPAs worldwide, and it raises questions about MPA monitoring and enforcement. We propose a novel institution to enhance MPA design - a 'Conservation Finance Area (CFA)' - that utilizes leased fishing zones inside of MPAs, fed by spillover, to finance monitoring and enforcement and achieve greater conservation success. Using a bioeconomic model we show that CFAs can fully finance enforcement, deter illegal fishing, and ultimately maximize fish biomass. Moreover, we show that unless a large, exogenous, and perpetual enforcement budget is available, implementing a CFA in a no-take MPA would always result in higher biomass than without. We also explore real-world enabling conditions, providing a plausible funding pathway to improve outcomes for existing and future MPAs. © 2021 The Author(s).

However, in recent years, with the adoption of Australia's Oceans Policy in 1998 and the passing of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (C'th) (EPBC Act), the federal and state governments have begun to develop complementary management approaches for marine ecosystems and to put in place strong legal sanctions to enhance the protection of the marine environment.

The current marine living resource harvesting, management and governance prevailing in the Antarctic is outlined. The key objectives of the Convention on the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources are highlighted, as is the role of its attached Commission (CCAMLR) in developing and promulgating ecosystem-based and precautionary management measures. A brief history of the Antarctic krill fishery is provided in the context of its dominant trends, potentially attendant global circumstances and possible harvest effects. Similarly, a summary of CCAMLR management actions outlines the current management regime for regulating the krill fishery. Key areas identified include the application of small-scale management units and ecosystem conservation/environmental protection measures. The latter include CCAMLR-sponsored activities associated with ecosystem assessment, environmental protection from fishing activities, small-scale research units to spread harvest risk, marine protected areas to conserve biodiversity, avoidance of damage to vulnerable marine ecosystems and mitigating potential climate change effects. In terms of predicting potential future trends for the Antarctic ecosystem in general, and krill fishery in particular, the future is contrasted to the past. Management achievements, failures and threats are identified. These are analysed in an objectively-based process to assess risk, uncertainty and the future in terms of a krill sustainability framework addressing ecological, social-ecological and socio-economic considerations. Key predicted impacts and ecosystem performance breakdowns comprise the following, in priority order: climate change, increased uncertainty, harvested stock sustainability, political will and compliance enforcement. Recognising that both effective governance and cost-efficient environmental management are at the center of sustainably managing Antarctic marine living resources and protecting their associated ecosystems in the future, a number of suggestions for further consideration are identified. © Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2014.",,61-95,,,,,,,,,,,Springer Netherlands,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Antarctic Futures: Hum.

In 2004, the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) Marine Park was rezoned and the area of NTMRs was greatly increased. Using manta tow we assessed the effectiveness of the new NTMRs in conserving coral trout (Plectropomus and Variola spp.), the principle targets of the GBR reef line fishery. Over a six year period, we sampled regional groups of matched pairs of similar reefs, ones closed to fishing under the rezoning and ones that remained open. Coral trout populations were significantly higher in NTMRs. While coral trout populations declined on reefs open to fishing, stocks were maintained in NTMRs, highlighting the ongoing benefits of marine reserves. © 2012.",,167-170,,,79,,Mar. Environ.

Sea urchin removal has long been used to investigate kelp-sea urchin dynamics and is increasingly being promoted for kelp forest restoration. In this review, we assess the methods and outcomes of sea urchin removal experiments to evaluate their potential use and feasibility as a tool for restoring macroalgal forests. Seventy-nine sea urchin removal projects were reviewed from temperate subtidal rocky reef systems between 1975 and 2020. Removal methods were often not reported (35%), but included manual culling, including crushing (25%) and chemical application (quicklime, 9%), or relocating sea urchins (13%). Only a small percentage of removals were large in scale (16% > 10 ha) and 92% of these utilized culling. Culling is often the most practical method of urchin removal, but all methods can be effective and we encourage development of new approaches that harvest and utilize low-quality urchins. Urchin removal led to an increase in macroalgae in 70% of studies, and a further 21% showed partial increases (e.g., at one or more sites or set of conditions). Restoration effectiveness is increased by removing essentially all sea urchins from discrete areas of urchin barrens. Sea urchin removal provides a simple, relatively cheap, and effective method that promotes kelp recovery within urchin barrens. However, sea urchin removal does not address the underlying cause of elevated sea urchin populations and is unlikely to provide a long-term solution to restore kelp forests and full ecosystem function on its own. We therefore suggest that if sea urchin removal is considered as a tool for kelp forest restoration, it should be incorporated with other management measures that aim to increase kelp forest resilience and biodiversity (e.g., marine protected areas, predator protection or enhancement). This will ensure that kelp restoration efforts have the greatest ecological, socio-economic and cultural outcomes in the long-term. Copyright © 2022 Miller, Blain and Shears.",,,,,9,,Front. Mar.

Numerous studies indicate that NTMRs result in higher abundances of fishery-targeted marine species, but few studies utilised robust sampling designs. Comparisons of NTMRs and fished sites must account for potential confounding of habitat type and quality in heterogeneous marine environments. In a review of 164 NTMR studies, many studies failed to adequately account for habitat effects, with no apparent improvement in the literature through time (1983-2013). Five methods employed to partition reserve and habitat effects were used in conjunction with three basic sampling designs: single-point-in-time comparisons, temporal monitoring, and before-after-control-impact (BACI) studies. Researchers evaluating NTMRs: a) ignored habitat or described sites as broadly similar (28.7%); b) constrained sampling to similar habitats (43.9%); c) explicitly tested for habitat differences among sites (12.8%); d) used statistical methods to partition habitat and reserve effects (26.2%); and e) examined changes in habitat caused by reserve protection (17.1%). Over half of the studies (54.3%) made no statistical attempt to account for habitat effects. Robust studies, utilising methods (c-e) within BACI designs, are needed to accurately differentiate NTMR from habitat effects and permit managers to more accurately assess the benefits of NTMRs. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,51-60,,,96,,Ocean Coast.

In addition, because of their geographic isolation, HLRs may have poor or erratic larval connections to tropical reefs and a reduced genetic diversity and capacity to respond to environmental change. On Australia's east coast, a system of marine protected areas (MPAs) has been established with the aim of conserving HLRs in part by providing sources of colonizing larvae. To examine the effectiveness of existing MPAs as networks for dispersal, we compared genetic diversity within and among the HLRs in MPAs and between these HLRs and tropical reefs on the southern Great Barrier Reef (GBR). The 2 coral species best represented on Australian HLRs (the brooding Pocillopora damicornis and the broadcast-spawning Goniastrea australensis) exhibited sharply contrasting patterns of diversity and connectedness. For P. damicornis, the 8-locus genetic and genotypic diversity declined dramatically with increasing latitude (Na = 3.6-1.2, He = 0.3-0.03, Ng:N = 0.87-0.06), although population structure was consistent with recruitment derived largely from sexual reproduction (Go:G e = 1.28-0.55). Genetic differentiation was high among the HLRs (FST [SD] = 0.32 [0.08], p < 0.05) and between the GBR and the HLRs (FST = 0.24 [0.06], p < 0.05), which indicates these temperate populations are effectively closed. In contrast for G. australensis, 9-locus genetic diversity was more consistent across reefs (Na = 4.2-3.9, He = 0.3-0.26, Ng:N = 1-0.61), and there was no differentiation among regions (FST = 0.00 [0.004], p > 0.05), which implies the HLRs and the southern GBR are strongly interconnected. Our results demonstrate that although the current MPAs appear to capture most of the genetic diversity present within the HLR systems for these 2 species, their sharply contrasting patterns of connectivity indicate some taxa, such as P. damicornis, will be more vulnerable than others, and this disparity will provide challenges for future management. © 2008 Society for Conservation Biology.",,1245-1254,,5,22,,Conserv.

Cuba’s marine and coastal ecosystems are highly biodiverse and support fisheries vital to food security and the national economy. Cuban government and state institutions, scientists, managers and fishers—along with colleagues from other countries—have expressed growing concern about the decline of fishing resources. In 2012, under the aegis of the National Center for Protected Areas, Cuban institutions from the Ministry of Science, Technology and Environment and the Ministry of Foreign Investment partnered with the Italian nongovernmental organization, COSPE Onlus, to launch SOS Pesca, a four-year project to achieve sustainable fisheries management, conserve marine habitats and improve quality of life in two Cuban fishing communities (Guayabal in Las Tunas Province and Playa Florida in Camagüey Province). SOS Pesca involved the municipal governments of Amancio Rodríguez (in Las Tunas Province) and Florida (in Camagüey Province), delegates to the Municipal Assembly of People’s Power (municipal government) from Guayabal (Amancio Rodríguez Municipality) and Playa Florida (Florida Municipality), the state-owned fishing industry, private fishers, local families, protected area officials and staff scientists, municipal governments and international nongovernmental organizations. By the end of 2012, a new US–Cuban collaboration emerged when COSPE recruited Environmental Defense Fund to provide scientific and technical support, trainings and exchanges focused on fisheries. SOS Pesca succeeded at community, regional fishing zone and national levels. Outcomes included: an assessment of finfish identifying species most vulnerable to fishing (methods and capacities), a proposed management plan for finfish, a National Plan of Action for sharks and rays, two marine protected areas established, increased employment through socioeconomic alternatives, revitalization of community environmental brigades, and greater capacity to use fishery assessment methods and develop management strategies. Perhaps the greatest achievement was communities’ and fishers’ changed perceptions of their marine environment, the need for conservation and sustainable resource management, and their active role in this objective. SOS Pesca spurred a more participatory form of integrated marine and coastal management in Cuba—one that integrates fisheries and spatial management, links fishing families and coastal communities with scientists and administrators to find solutions that support sustainability, and connects economic alternatives to community-based conservation and improved food security. This innovative multinational collaboration benefited coastal communities, marine and coastal ecosystems and international cooperation. © 2018 MEDICC Medical Education Cooperation with Cuba.

Brazil has among the greatest gaps in species protection by Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) globally and is thus a priority for future marine conservation efforts. In this paper, we assess the federal marine protected area (MPA) planning process in Brazil and compare it to a systematic conservation planning approach, focused on achieving conservation benefits while minimizing associated costs. We review the available information for all (70) federal MPAs, and the 26 associated management plans available. We found five simple opportunities for improving national MPA planning: (1) identifying specific and quantitative objectives and linking them to timeframes and budgets; (2) developing strategic monitoring and evaluation programs focused on MPA performance; (3) enabling local stakeholders to participate in planning processes, (4) explicitly considering MPA costs and leveraging existing sources of funding, and (5) decentralizing resource management and empowering local stakeholders to manage resources sustainably. Many reviewed MPA planning efforts fall short in providing clear management guidance and our recommendations can foster a stronger platform for the conservation and sustainable use of marine resources in Brazil. © 2020",,161-168,,3,18,,Perspect.

We developed a method to predict the marginal benefits of systematic over ad hoc approaches to conservation over time. We tested it in Fiji, where ambitious national conservation goals for inshore marine waters rely on community support to implement the required management. We used Maxent to develop a suitability layer for different forms of marine resource management based on predictors derived from interviews with key informants. This suitability layer, together with data on established marine protected areas (MPAs) and the software Marxan with Zones, informed simulations of the expansion of ad hoc and systematic conservation. With the same constraints on the additional extent of MPAs, the ad hoc approach achieved quantitative conservation objectives for half the ecosystems in our analysis, although all objectives were achieved or nearly achieved with the systematic approach. By defining the likely upper and lower bounds of plausible futures given different decisions about conservation investments, this work was designed to guide conservation strategies and actions in Fiji.

We examined how several community-based, marine, management actions differed in their contribution to national-level conservation goals in Fiji. We held a workshop with experts on local fauna and flora and local marine management actions to translate conservation goals developed by the national government into ecosystem-specific quantitative objectives and to estimate the relative effectiveness of Fiji's community-based management actions in achieving these objectives. The national conservation objectives were to effectively manage 30% of the nation's fringing reefs, nonfringing reefs, mangroves, and intertidal ecosystems (30% objective) and 10% of other benthic ecosystems (10% objective). The experts evaluated the contribution of the various management actions toward national objectives. Scores ranged from 0 (ineffective) to 1 (maximum effectiveness) and included the following management actions: permanent closures (i.e., all extractive use of resources prohibited indefinitely) (score of 1); conditional closures harvested once per year or less as dictated by a management plan (0.50-0.95); conditional closures harvested without predetermined frequency or duration (0.10-0.85); other management actions, such as regulations on gear and species harvested (0.15-0.50). Through 3 gap analyses, we assessed whether the conservation objectives in Fiji had been achieved. Each analysis was based on a different assumption: (1) all parts of locally managed marine areas (including closures and other management) conserve species and ecosystems effectively; (2) closures conserve species and ecosystems, whereas areas outside closures, open to varying levels of resource extraction, do not; and (3) actions that allow different levels of resource extraction vary in their ability to conserve species and ecosystems. Under assumption 1, Fiji's national conservation objectives were exceeded in all marine ecosystems; under assumption 2, none of Fiji's conservation objectives were met; and under assumption 3, on the basis of the scores assigned by experts, Fiji achieved the 10% but not the 30% objectives for ecosystems. Understanding the relative contribution of management actions to achieving conservation objectives is critical in the assessment of conservation achievements at the national level, where multiple management actions will be needed to achieve national conservation objectives. © 2011 Society for Conservation Biology.",,1155-1164,,6,25,,Conserv.

Adaptive spatial planning is advocated because it allows decisions to be improved with new data, as knowledge accumulates on management within particular contexts, and to fine-tune spatial management arrangements to fit constantly changing social-ecological systems. Yet, to date there have been very few reviews of the process and practice of adaptive spatial planning in real-world contexts. Here we review the theoretical challenges presented in the literature on adaptive spatial planning against 5 case studies of adaptive planning in the marine realm: Kubulau District, Fiji; Southeast Cebu, Philippines; the Great Barrier Reef, Australia; central California, USA; and KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Our aim is to assess the extent to which the theoretical challenges have been addressed in practice. We find that none of the case studies analyzed effectively addressed all the challenges of adaptive spatial planning. Differences in legislation, resources, and capacity to undertake adaptive spatial planning mean that each planning process is operated differently in each case study. For example, adaptive spatial planning can occur through a structured and institutionalized approach when resources and government support are available, but it can also operate in a relatively more opportunistic and flexible way if governments are weaker but civil society has strong champions. Although the case studies addressed aspects of adaptive planning, some persistent challenges remain, including scientific gaps regarding triggers for adaptation and unsympathetic institutional and policy contexts and planning cultures. These challenges must be addressed before all the benefits of adaptive spatial planning can be realized. © 2014.",,54-63,,,181,,Biol.

In fact an evidence of alteration at this level of the food chain, first or second, can be used as an early warning sign of risk to the health of an entire TW ecosystem, enabling local authorities to intervene promptly to avoid bioaccumulation and biomagnification phenomena. Ecological characteristics of this kind of environments are low biodiversity and peculiar spatial and seasonal distribution with high abundance peaks. These are favourable conditions in accordance with the biomarkers test protocols. Specific biomarkers of exposure and/or effects can be used giving informations about the kind of contaminant involved. 2 - The zooplanktonic organisms with largest distribution in all the TW environments are the copepods, so, in the field, it is possible to use a suite of biomarkers in a copepod species collected in a study area and in a reference site, not polluted, in order to evaluate its environmental ""health status"". 3 - The aim of this study was to propose a suite of biomarkers (BPMO activity, EROD activity, NADPH-cytochrome C reductase, NADH-cytochrome C reductase, NADH-ferricyanide reductase, total proteins, esterases, porphyrins) and residue concentration (heavy metals) in the zooplanktonic copepod Acartia latisetosa, as a multi-disciplinary diagnostic tool for assessment of the health status of a TW environment in which the species was sampled. This was Lago Faro (Messina, Italy), a lake suspected of being polluted, respect to Lago Verde, a small brackish lake of a natural marine reserve (Marinello, Messina, Italy). 4 - The results show inductions of MFO activity (EROD, NADH-Cytochrome C reductase, NADH-ferricyanide reductase) and inhibition of acetylcholinesterase activity in A. latisetosa sampled in Lago Faro, suggesting contamination with xenobiotic lipophilic compounds and neurotoxic substances. But, in contrast with what was expected, samples collected in the reference lake were high in porphyrins and heavy metals. 5 - The results show and confirm that biomarkers in zooplankton species can be used to study early the ""health status"" of different TW environments. © 2008 University of Salento - SIBA.",,45-52,,1,2,,Transitional Waters Bull.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Acartia latisetosa; Biomarkers; Copepods; Environmental monitoring; Faro Lake; South Italy; Transitional water environments,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The increased attractiveness of the coastlines and the race of economic imperatives offshore have strongly unified seas and coasts in the expectations of people and contemporary societies.

Even though many LTER sites are within protected areas, they do not necessarily produce data that are well aligned with the objectives of the institutions and individuals who manage and govern these sites. There are several potential reasons for this, including: i) insufficient information provided by the LTER on socio-ecological variables of relevance to management; ii) a mismatch between the spatial scale of the data collected by the LTER and the scale of data needed to inform management decisions; iii) a lack of inclusion of policy-makers in crucial steps of LTER project implementation, including experimental design and analysis, and; iv) an absence or insufficiency of formal or informal mechanisms for incorporating LTER data into environmental decision-making and protected area governance.

It is unique and original at the world level for a protected area to retain in a single perimeter these three major ecosystems, which therefore gives this national park an exceptional quality. Khnefiss national park faces numerous natural, human-induced, institutional, organizational, and legal constraints. Hence, there is a need for a practical tool that would reconcile the imperatives of conservation, the demands of the local population, and tourism, and at the same time positively address the constraints that hamper the management of this geosite. Indeed, we will highlight a reflection that aims at clarifying the sense of this new trajectory in which Morocco is positioned in terms of interest development of geological heritage, the emergence of consumption of natural assets, and potentialities phenomenon according to regions. Therefore, all actions are based on values of citizenship, participative, responsibility, ethicality, and fairness.

The objective is to maintain or restore the habitats of Community Interest in a favourable conservation status. These types of habitats are listed in the Directive (Annex I). Thus, a network of protected areas called “Natura 2000” has been established. Special Areas of Conservation (SACs, Habitats Directive) and Special Protection Areas (SPAs, Birds Directive) form this network. In France, the Directive was transposed in the Environmental Code. The operators (experts, site managers, etc.) shall assess the conservation status of the habitats of Community Interest within each Natura 2000 site. The management plan must include the results of the assessment. In order to achieve the objectives defined by the Directive, the French Ministry of the Environment has assigned the French National Museum of Natural History with the task of elaborating methods to assess the conservation status of all habitats of Community interest at the scale of Natura 2000 sites since 2008. The methods should be standardized, pragmatic, affordable and easy to apply. Several reports had been published about forest, agropastoral, coastal, marine and lagoonal habitats. The first method dealing with terrestrial wet habitats was published in 2013. Then, other methods were set about standing waters, acid raised bogs, alkaline fens and Atlantic wet heathlands. Work is currently going on petrifying springs. The purpose is to create a series of grids to assess the conservation status of all wet habitats types. These grids are based on the assessment of three parameters, which are the surface, the structures and functions, as well as the deterioration factors. For each parameter, some criteria are selected and subsequently as-sessed with a set of indicators. For all the studies, a bibliographical research allows to preselect some indicators. Then, experts and site managers validate the lists of indicators to test in the field. The indicators are compared to an expert view on the conservation status of the habitats. The aim is to select only the indicators that correspond the most to the expert view. The testing phase leads to the definition of some thresholds to the indicators that correspond to the values at which the conservation status is considered to be “favourable” or “unfavourable”. The testing phase takes place with the support of national botanical conservatories, conservatories of natural areas, other experts and site managers. Finally, statistical analyses allow to deliver initial results, which must be validated by the experts and the site managers before constituting a first proposal of assessment grid. The methods can evolve thanks to the feedback of users. Nowadays, 98% of all wet habitats of Community Interest present in mainland France are covered by at least a first proposal of indicators. © 2021, Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle.

In over a quarter of these ecosystems, the number of alien plants surpasses the total count of native ones, leading to notable impacts. This concern is particularly pronounced in the Mediterranean Basin, a globally important hotspot for plant diversity. In line with this, our study aimed to investigate the current distribution of six main alien plant species (Chasmanthe floribunda, Nicotiana glauca, Opuntia ficus-indica, Opuntia stricta, Senecio angulatus, and Zantedeschia aethiopica) on Capraia Island in the Tuscan Archipelago, Italy. We identified invaded vegetation types and N2000 habitats (sensu 92/43/EEC “Habitats” Directive), created a detailed map of the current distribution of these six target species, and analyzed the relationship between their distribution and environmental factors. The six target species were found to be more widespread in areas of the island with higher levels of anthropogenic disturbance, with only O. stricta also spreading into natural habitats. Overall, the invasion covers an area of 71 hectares (3.6% of the island’s surface), of which over 70 hectares are invaded by O. stricta. The habitats most impacted by alien plant invasion include 5330 “Thermo-Mediterranean and pre-desert scrub”, 5320 “Low formations of Euphorbia close to cliffs”, 1240 “Vegetated sea cliffs of the Mediterranean coasts with endemic Limonium spp.”, and 6220* “Pseudo-steppe with grasses and annuals of the Thero-Brachypodietea”, all primarily invaded by O. stricta. Environmental factors most correlated with alien plant distribution include the distance from infrastructure, altitude, and slope aspect.

The European Union strives to increase protected areas of the EU terrestrial surface to 30% by year 2030, of which one third should be strictly protected. Designation of the Natura 2000 network, the backbone of nature protection in the EU, was mostly an expert-opinion process with little systematic conservation planning. The designation of the Natura 2000 network in Romania followed the same non-systematic approach, resulting in a suboptimal representation of invertebrates and plants. To help identify areas with very high biodiversity without repeating past planning missteps, we present a reproducible example of spatial prioritization using Romania’s current terrestrial Natura 2000 network and coarse-scale terrestrial species occurrence. Methods. We used 371 terrestrial Natura 2000 Sites of Community Importance (Natura 2000 SCI), designated to protect 164 terrestrial species listed under Annex II of Habitats Directive in Romania in our spatial prioritization analyses (marine Natura 2000 sites and species were excluded). Species occurrences in terrestrial Natura 2000 sites were aggregated at a Universal Traverse Mercator spatial resolution of 1 km2. To identify priority terrestrial Natura 2000 sites for species conservation, and to explore if the Romanian Natura 2000 network sufficiently represents species included in Annex II of Habitats Directive, we used Zonation v4, a decision support software tool for spatial conservation planning. We carried out the analyses nationwide (all Natura 2000 sites) as well as separately for each biogeographic region (i.e., Alpine, Continental, Pannonian, Steppic and Black Sea). Results. The results of spatial prioritization of terrestrial Natura 2000 vary greatly by planning scenario. The performance of national-level planning of top priorities is minimal. On average, when 33% of the landscape of Natura 2000 sites is protected, only 20% of the distribution of species listed in Annex II of Habitats Directive are protected. As a consequence, the representation of species by priority terrestrial Natura 2000 sites is lessened when compared to the initial set of species. When planning by taxonomic group, the top-priority areas include only 10% of invertebrate distribution in Natura 2000. When selecting top-priority areas by biogeographical region, there are significantly fewer gap species than in the national level and by taxa scenarios; thusly, the scenario outperforms the national-level prioritization. The designation of strictly protected areas as required by the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 should be followed by setting clear objectives, including a good representation of species and habitats at the biogeographical region level.

However, a general failure to consider the varying levels of vulnerability of fishers has resulted in MPAs that, often unintentionally, adversely impact small-scale fishers. Furthermore, when fishers lack the capacity to adapt to MPA-related changes, MPAs may fail to meet conservation objectives because fishers do not comply with MPA regulations. In this study, we developed a systematic method to identify individuals who are most vulnerable to being negatively impacted by no-take MPAs through an index that represents individual-level vulnerability. We designed a method for identifying these individuals based on four socioeconomic factors pertaining to vulnerability to MPA changes: livelihood diversity, education, age and wealth, then applied this method in two socially and economically heterogeneous communities in Myanmar's Myeik Archipelago. We used empirical data collected from 80 small-scale fishers in this area to represent each factor, then generated a local-level ‘Livelihood Impact Potential Index’ (LIPI) that reflects the degree to which a no-take MPA would impact an individual fisher's ability to support his or her livelihood. When attributed to each fisher's most frequented fishing ground, the LIPI can identify locations where no-take MPAs would be most detrimental to small-scale fishers' livelihoods based on their levels of vulnerability. The LIPI can thus be used alongside ecological and commercial fishing data to support planners in designing local-scale MPAs that maximise positive impact on biodiversity and minimise adverse impacts on the most vulnerable fishers in a community. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,245,,Biol.

These Shark Large Marine Protected Areas (SLMPAs) are established primarily to alleviate the direct threats that humans pose to sharks through activities such as overfishing and destructive fishing practices. However, despite the anthropogenic nature of these threats, socioeconomic factors are often given less consideration than their ecological counterparts when designating SLMPAs. In this paper, we identified and examined relevant national-level socioeconomic data to determine the challenges and opportunities associated with implementing SLMPAs, focussing on least developed and low income countries. We aimed to use these socioeconomic data to identify nations where SLMPAs are more likely to be successful in providing conservation benefits to sharks. We used principal component analysis to develop two national-level indices that represent these anticipated opportunities and challenges for implementing SLMPAs across 87 coastal nations. The Opportunity Index identifies those nations in which socioeconomic conditions such as adaptive capacity, and strong and fair governance, are favourable for SLMPAs to provide conservation benefits to sharks. The Challenge Index identifies those nations that may not yet be in a position developmentally to support communities to adapt to a loss of access to resources associated with SLMPAs, or to manage and enforce broad scale restrictive legislation. In combination with biophysical considerations, the Challenge and Opportunity indices presented here can support policy makers in deciding whether, and in what cases, SLMPAs are the most appropriate measure to provide conservation benefits to sharks. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,107-115,,,234,,Biol.

Depending upon the way that individuals move, no-take marine reserves can be necessary for maximizing equilibrium rent in some simple mathematical models. The implementation of no-take marine reserves often generates a redistribution of fishing effort in space. This redistribution of effort, in turn, produces sharp spatial gradients in mortality rates for the targeted stock. Using a two-patch model, we show that the existence of such gradients is a sufficient condition for the evolution of an evolutionarily stable conditional dispersal strategy. Thus, the dispersal strategy of the fish depends upon the harvesting strategy of the manager and vice versa. We find that an evolutionarily stable optimal harvesting strategy (ESOHS)-one which maximizes equilibrium rent given that fish disperse in an evolutionarily stable manner- - never includes a no-take marine reserve. This strategy is economically unstable in the short run because a manager can generate more rent by disregarding the possibility of dispersal evolution. Simulations of a stochastic evolutionary process suggest that such a short-run, myopic strategy performs poorly compared to the ESOHS over the long run, however, as it generates rent that is lower on average and higher in variability. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.",,456-474,,4,28,,Nat.

In response, some conservationists propose managing harvests through spatial management, a system of establishing no-take zones where hunting is not allowed. Spatial management was commonly used in customary management and is increasingly used for fisheries management today, but is not yet widely implemented in tropical forests. Through this review, we trace the development of spatial management and examine its proposed benefits in tropical forests. We find that while spatial management offers promise for managing the complex, multispecies harvests common in tropical forests, designing no-take zones will require more investment in ecological research and monitoring. Given these challenges, a reasonable first goal of no-take zones is to protect resident wildlife populations, not enhance harvests through dispersal. A greater understanding of socioeconomic impacts will also be required to ensure successful implementation.

A potentially important reality of fishing that these studies overlook is that fishing can damage the habitat of the target stock. Here, we construct an equilibrium bioeconomic model that incorporates this habitat damage and show that the designation of marine reserves, coupled with the implementation of a tax on fishing effort, becomes both biologically and economically favorable as habitat sensitivity increases. We also study the effects of varied degrees of spatial control on fisheries management.

To meet that goal, size and spacing guidelines have been used in MPA network design as a proxy for explicitly representing connectivity and species movement. However, there has been no assessment of the biological effects of these simple rules. We evaluated these guidelines by estimating population persistence with a spatially explicit population model over: (1) an idealized coastline and (2) an example from California, USA. Persistence of a species within an MPA network depends strongly on its movement characteristics; therefore we used the number of combinations of larval dispersal distances and adult home range diameters as an index representing the number of species that could be protected by a MPA network. The index of species protected usually increased steadily with increasing MPA size. By contrast, decreasing MPA spacing only produced large increases in the index when spacing became close enough to allow species persistence via network connectivity rather than self replenishment. Species persistence also depended on the exploitation rate outside MPAs. Size and spacing guidelines are a simple and useful way to begin the MPA network design process, but meeting these guidelines does not guarantee persistence for all populations one may wish to protect. The use of spatially explicit population dynamics models that evaluate population persistence directly provides a more comprehensive basis for comparing proposed MPA network designs. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,306-318,,1,144,,Biol.

The present study aimed to determine the coverage and coral status at important sites of Tioman Island Marine Park, which include Renggis Island, Tiong Point and Tekek. Surveillance video recording and in situ observation were carried out using the Coral Video Transect (CVT) method, which were analyzed using the Coral Point Count with Excel extension (CPCe) software. The overall health status for the study area was considered as “fair” with 41.61% ± 4.46% of mean live coral coverage. Among the stations Renggis Island had the highest live coral coverage accounting for 50.71% ± 6.97%, which was classified as ‘good’. In terms of coral diversity, a total of 11 families and 36 genera were identified for the three sampling sites. Family Acroporidae, which includes the Acropora, Anacropora and Montipora, dominated the coral reef within the study area with 17.09% ± 2.54% coverage. Acropora was the most abundant with 12.40% ± 3.66% coverage, followed by Porites (11.31% ± 1.33%), Leptoseris (5.12% ± 5.09%), Montipora (4.69% ± 3.43%) and Sinularia (2.58% ± 2.33%). In terms of conservation, Renggis Island and Tiong Point were categorized as Conservation Class 4 (CC-4), which indicates great diversity of species, while Tekek was in Conservation Class 2 (CC-2). Tiong Point has the highest diversity (H’ = 1.64) and good evenness values (J = 0.64), but it also recorded a high mortality index (MI = 0.55). Tekek on the other hand, recorded the lowest diversity (H’ = 1.26) and poor evenness (J = 0.44), with the highest mortality index (MI = 0.59). In conclusion, some of the reef areas on Tioman Island were not in the best condition, thus efforts should be taken to enhance coral reef resilience that may improve coral reef conservation and preservation. © TÜB?TAK.",,13-20,,1,48,,Turk.

Central and northeastern Iran have been among the most vulnerable areas where expanding anthropogenic activities (in particular construction of road networks) have come into conflict with conservation and management of the endangered Asiatic cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus venaticus), along with other large mammals. The present study aimed to determine hotspot locations along an extremely high-risk road for mammals in northeast Iran (Touran Biosphere Reserve [TBR]) and propose mitigation measures for mammals such as the Asiatic cheetah. Using a spatially-explicit algorithm to estimate collision incidences, we adopted the kernel density estimation (KDE) and the distance method with respect to EDGE (evolutionarily distinct and globally endangered) and home range values for all locations. Also, a habitat suitability map was prepared to create habitat patches and applied to corridor modeling for the Asiatic cheetah. We investigated locations of 73 wildlife–vehicle collisions (WVCs) and crossing data from 2005–2016, that included Persian gazelles (Gazella subgutturosa), Asiatic cheetahs, striped hyenas (Hyaena hyaena), golden jackals (Canis auerus), red fox (Vulpes vulpes), European hare (Lepus europaeus), caracal (Caracal caracal), and grey wolves (Canis lupus). Our results showed that, based on the two methods, hotspot locations and the Asiatic cheetah corridor coincided. The corridor between TBR and Miandasht Wildlife Refuge was illustrated. This corridor is about 55 km length and 656 km2 area, which connects two population patches within these protected areas. Asiatic cheetah vehicle collisions mostly occurred where a road crossed this corridor at the border of the TBR. The mitigation strategies proposed in this study for large mammals, particularly the Asiatic cheetah, are as follows: retrofit and installation of culverts in hotspots; installation of fences for crossing carnivores; and, roadside vegetation clearance in critical seasons for the Persian gazelles along the Semnan-Mashhad road. © 2018 Elsevier GmbH",,18-Aug,,,43,,J.

Such contractions are particularly acute for wide-ranging large carnivores in Asia’s high altitude areas, which are marked by high spatiotemporal variability in resources. Current conservation planning for human-dominated landscapes often takes one of two main approaches: a “coexistence” (land sharing) approach or a “separation” (land sparing) approach. In this study, we evaluated the effects of land-use management on a guild of large carnivores in a montane ecosystem located in northeastern Iran. We used interview surveys to collect data on Persian leopard Panthera pardus saxicolor and grey wolf Canis lupus and modeled the areas occupied by these species in a Bayesian framework. After accounting for imperfect detection, we found that wolves had a higher probability of occupying the study area than leopards (82%; 95% CI 73–90% vs. 63%; 95% CI 53–73%). Importantly, each predator showed contrasting response to land-use management. National Parks (i.e. human-free areas) had a positive association with leopard occupancy (?National Park = 2.56, 95% CI 0.22–5.77), in contrast to wolves, which displayed a negative association with National Parks (?National Park = ? 1.62, 95% CI ? 2.29 to 0.31). An opposite pattern was observed for human-dominated areas (i.e. Protected Areas and Communal Lands), where occupancy was higher for wolves but lower for leopards. Our study suggests that to protect these large carnivores, a combination of land sharing and land sparing approaches is desirable within Iran montane landscapes. Any recovery program for big cats in Iranian mountains, and likely similar mountainous landscapes in west Asia, should take into account other sympatric carnivores and how they can affect adjacent human communities. For example, conflict mitigation and compensation efforts are required to include the guild of large carnivores, instead of solely targeting the charismatic big cats. © 2021, The Author(s).",,4023-4037,,13,30,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,Asia; Canidae; Canis lupus; carnivore; conservation planning; Hierarchical occupancy models; Interview survey; Iran; Land sharing; Land sparing; land use; landscape ecology; mountain region; Panthera pardus; Panthera pardus saxicolor; predator,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

On the coast of the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina, several of the above techniques have been used, i.e. armoring, moderation and restoration, especially in the city of Mar del Plata (General Pueyrredón country). The beaches in front of the central part of the city have a large number of breakwaters. Those structures, which were built without an adequate design, favored the migration of erosive processes downdrift, i.e. in the direction of the coastal sediment transport (south to north). Other protection works that were carried out are the beach nourishment projects that use sands extracted from different sources, both marine and continental. The most relevant work was carried out in 1998 with sand extracted from the sand shoal accumulated at the outlet of the port. The beaches located in the southern part of the city are almost natural and only in recent years a few protection structures, such as groins and rip-rap revetments of orthoquartzite rocks have been emplaced. Because of this, the southern area is preserving a high degree of landscape and sanitary quality for bathing purposes. The study area is located at the southern end of the General Pueyrredón country, within a protected area named Reserva Turística y Forestal Paseo Costanero Sur, which has an extension of 27 km from the Punta Mogotes lighthouse to the Las Brusquitas creek (Fig. 1c). The area has a great variety of landforms: pocket beaches, dune fields, tall cliffs, at places covered with fossil dunes, and rock platforms. A feature of oceanographic interest is the existence of a littoral cell in the Ensenada de Mogotes (northernmost part of the study area). These beaches are susceptible to storms, mainly approaching from the south, that causes coastline and cliff retreat, generating a risk for the neighborhoods and for the stability of the route 11 that runs on top of these cliffs. Likewise, this provincial route between the cities of Mar del Plata and Miramar, in the sector near the San Eduardo del Mar neighborhood, is affected by the migration of dunes under the action of winds blowing from WSW. It is often required the intervention of the municipality to rehabilitate the route. Such sands are usually not reintegrated to the coastal sediment budget, despite the fact that there have been carried out in recent years different studies recommend that for a sustainable management (Fig.1). The objective of the present work was to analyze the possible use of the sands accumulated by the wind on the Provincial Route 11 in the vicinity of the San Eduardo del Mar neighborhood to carry out artificial nourishments at the beaches belonging to the Reserva Turística y Forestal Paseo Costanero Sur, i.e. Playa Serena, Luna Roja, Chapadmalal and San Eduardo del Mar beaches (Fig.1). Beach nourishment is considered a soft protection solution consisting in the artificial fill of the beach using sand (“borrow sand”) from another site. The purpose is to increase the width of the backshore and thus to keep the toe of the cliffs away from the action of the waves. This method also provides recreational benefits by increasing the tourist capacity and, therefore, the associated economic value for local municipalities. The methodology used for this work was divided into two parts: on the one hand, a survey of the beaches was carried out by means of topographic profiles with an analog theodolite during low tide conditions to determine the beach width and slope. At the same time, four sediment samples were obtained from a depth of one centimeter (respect to the surface of the beach), and then sieved in laboratory to determine the average grain size and statistical parameters (Folk and Ward, 1957) using the Gradistat software (Blott and Pye, 2001). On the other hand, the suitability of natural and borrow sediments was checked by applying the James diagram (1975). Using the statistical parameters, the Overfill factors (Ra) value, which indicate the suitability (and therefore the probable behavior) of the borrow material respect to the native material, were calculated; and the Renourishment factor (Rj), which indicates how often the replenishment of the borrow material would be required (U.S. ACE, 1984). For the eolian sands of the dune field, the grain size data were obtained from previous sampling (García González et al., 2021). Table 1 summarizes the results of the beach profiles and grain-size parameters for each beach. In general, beach lengths range from 40 to 70 m, slopes from 3 % to 5 % and the grain sizes are quite varied, from fine sands to gravel sizes (2 phi to -2.5 phi). Applying the James (1975) diagram, it was found that the best combination was the one corresponding to the replenishment of Playa Serena. In other words, only 1.02 m3 of borrow material (i.e. sand from the mobile dunes) is needed to replenish 1 m3 of native sand in that beach, and it had to be replenished 0.14 times more often respect to the present material. The rest of the beaches gave interesting results: for Chapadmalal and San Eduardo del Mar beaches the Ra ratios were also small (Ra: 1.05 and 1.02, respectively and Rj: 1.5), while Luna Roja had the highest values (Ra: 5.0 and Rj: 2; Table 3). The results presented above allowed the following conclusions: 1. Comparing sediment compositions in the Ensenada de Mogotes fine sand sizes prevail (Playa Serena 2.5 phi) while the grain sizes become coarser and with a smaller selection (San Eduardo del Mar 0.5 phi) outside of the Ensenada. 2. According to the topographic profiles, the beaches farther away from the Ensenada present steeper slopes (i.e. 5 %, Luna Roja and San Eduardo del Mar) with biggest grain sizes. Chapadmalal beach is a exception because it is a bimodal beach related to a breakwater. 3. The diagrams of James showed that the eolian sands of the San Eduardo del Mar dunes can be used as borrow sediment to nourish the beaches within the protected area Reserva Turística y Forestal Paseo Costanero Sur. 4. Results from the Ra and Rj diagrams allowed to state that borrow sand (obtained from mobile dunes) is especially to the Playa Serena sands (Ra 1.02 and Rj 0.14) and renourishments values are also suitable for the beaches of Chapadmalal and San Eduardo del Mar. 5. Considering the distance between the borrow area (the mobile dunes) and the beaches, San Eduardo del Mar and Chapadmalal are the most adequate to avoid large transportation costs, because the first one is located very closet to dune field and the second one is only 5.3 km away. © 2022 Asociacion Argentina de Sedimentologia.

Addressing environmental issues related to the Mediterranean Sea and increasing OL can be the first step to achieve Sustainable Development Goal 14 (focusing on the ocean) within the UN Agenda 2030 in the Mediterranean region. The adaptation of the Ocean Literacy Framework to the specificities of the Mediterranean Sea can introduce knowledge about different natural, geographical and social components of its marine life and society. This can help different stakeholders (e.g. teachers, educators, scientists, policy- and decision-makers, private sector) to better understand the influence that people have on the Mediterranean Sea, and the influence that the Mediterranean Sea has on them. This chapter gives an insight into the main pressures on the natural environment of the Mediterranean Sea, the legal framework for its protection and sustainability, the importance of integrated coastal zone management and marine protected areas in relation to ocean literacy and the role of education in the creation of an ocean-literate society right across the Mediterranean region. The geographical approach contributes significantly to the exploration and understanding of the relationship between the environment and human communities. Formal and non-formal education in different scientific fields, e.g. geography, biology, etc., as well as increased awareness about the interrelation between people and the Mediterranean Sea, could lead to increased protection and conservation of marine wildlife, sustainable management of Mediterranean marine resources and therefore sustainable blue development of the region. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021.",,197-240,,,Part F2244,,,,,,,,Springer International Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Key Chall.

In 2006, Norway’s first lobster reserves were implemented, with the aim of protecting European lobster (Homarus gammarus) through a ban on fixed gear. A before–after control-impact paired series (BACIPS) monitoring program was initiated to evaluate effects of protection on depleted lobster populations. Experimental trapping and capture-recapture techniques were combined to track demography of populations, also including movement of individuals within and beyond MPAs and adjacent control areas. Further, population genetics and parentage studies were applied, allowing for estimation of gene flow, and novel work on sexual selection in lobsters. Additional studies have evaluated MPA effects on coastal cod (Gadus morhua), and on commercially harvested labrids (Ctenolabrus rupestris and Symphodus melops) and anadromous brown trout (Salmo trutta). Together, these studies reported effects of protection pertaining to increased population density, survival, body size and phenotypic diversity, changes in emigration and interaction with surrounding fisheries, and alteration of selection pressure on morphological- and behavioral traits. Designation of MPAs in close collaboration with fishers and managers, long-term monitoring, inclusion of citizen science and evolving research protocols—also including fisheries data—have revealed novel effects of protection and harvesting on marine populations, thus providing substantial contributions to conservation science. Moreover, knowledge of MPA effects on coastal species has impacted harvest regulations showing the utility of MPAs as empirically documented management tools in Norway. © Copyright © 2021 Moland, Fernández-Chacón, Sřrdalen, Villegas-Ríos, Thorbjřrnsen, Halvorsen, Huserbrĺten, Olsen, Nillos Kleiven, Kleiven, Knutsen, Espeland, Freitas and Knutsen.",,,,,8,,Front.

Because there are opportunity costs to conservation, there is a need for science-based assessment of MPAs. Here, we present one of the northernmost documentations of MPA effects to date, demonstrated by a replicated before-after control-impact (BACI) approach. In 2006, MPAs were implemented along the Norwegian Skagerrak coast offering complete protection to shellfish and partial protection to fish. By 2010, European lobster (Homarus gammarus) catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) had increased by 245 per cent in MPAs, whereas CPUE in control areas had increased by 87 per cent. Mean size of lobsters increased by 13 per cent in MPAs, whereas increase in control areas was negligible. Furthermore, MPAresponses and population development in control areas varied significantly among regions. This illustrates the importance of a replicated BACI design for reaching robust conclusions and management decisions. Partial protection of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)was followed by an increase in population density and body size compared with control areas. By 2010, MPA cod were on average 5 cm longer than in any of the control areas. MPAs can be useful management tools in rebuilding and conserving portions of depleted lobster populations in northern temperate waters, and even for a mobile temperate fish species such as the Atlantic cod. © 2013 The Authors.",,,,1754,280,,Proc.

In 2006, experimental lobster reserves were established in the coastal Skagerrak, southern Norway, allowing for studies in the absence of disturbance by fishing gear. We present behavioural data from individual lobsters (n = 10) within 2 of the reserves. These data were obtained from data storage tags which logged in situ temperature and depth of specific individuals for up to 1 yr. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first direct measurements of depth obtained from freely behaving lobsters. Net movement exhibited by recaptured lobsters, measured as the distance between global positioning system positions recorded at the site of capture and recapture ranged from 15 to 580 m. Lobsters used habitats within a depth range of 1 to 57 m, and experienced sea temperatures ranging from 2°C during late winter (February to March) to 18°C during late summer (August to September). Lobster activity levels declined from September, reaching a minimum during February and March. From April, activity levels resumed. Seasonal variation in activity was correlated to water temperature (r2 = 0.55). Lobsters were more active during nighttime than during daytime, and there was a tendency for lobsters to reside in more shallow water during nighttime versus daytime. The present study suggests that future reserves for European lobster should be designed to include deeper habitat (30 to 50 m) in areas where such habitat exists when the management objective is long-term protection. © Inter-Research 2011.",,197-207,,,429,,Mar.

The measurements are performed in the Gulf of La Spezia, a highly populated area characterized by a complex use of the territory, where monitoring of surface currents can play an important role in correct management. The drifters have been launched in clusters of 3-6 units, aimed at investigating the significant time and space variability of the flow. In particular, two clusters launched at the same location 2 days apart show strikingly different patterns of evolution. The first cluster is swiftly advected with little particle spreading, while the second cluster divides into two branches with significant drifter spreading. Radial velocities from radar and drifter data are compared. The difference is characterized by a RMS ~5 cm/s, on the lowest side of the RMS values reported in the literature. In-situ drifter trajectories are then compared with synthetic trajectories computed from VHF radar fields, and a separation rate of ~1 km/12 h between individual trajectories is found. Finally, the spreading patterns of the in-situ clusters are qualitatively compared with the synthetic clusters and in all cases the synthetic trajectories are found to correctly reproduce the patterns, including the drastic difference between the two launches from the same location. The in-situ trajectories appear to fall in the envelope of the synthetic ones. The positive results are likely to be due to a combination of factors and primarily to the high frequency and space resolution of the radar fields, as well as to the flow regime characteristic of protected areas. The results confirm that radar data are well suited for the study of coastal flows in limited areas with complex patterns of velocity and transport. © 2009 Elsevier B.V.",,S79-S89,,SUPPL. 1,78,,J.

This study aims to describe habitat use in the Mochima National Park, a protected area under high anthropogenic pressure. Opportunistic surveys were conducted following a pre-defined route from September 2009 to August 2010. Data such as the geographical position, group size, composition, behaviour were recorded at 5min intervals. A focal group-follow methodology was used. A grid of 500 × 500m was constructed and each cell was characterised by environmental features and a Coefficient of Area Use (CAU) was calculated. A logistic regression model was applied to identify factors that explain use pattern. Seventy opportunistic surveys were conducted during which 86 groups of dolphins were observed. Dolphins occupied an area of 36km2, but Tigrillo inlet and to the northeast of the Caracas Islands were the areas most used. The common dolphins exhibited differential use, using shallow inshore waters most intensively and with probability of occurrence decreasing with increasing water depth and distance to the coast. They spent most of their time in feeding (40%) and socialising (24%) activities. Feeding and travelling behaviours were observed throughout the area studied, whereas socialising and resting activities were mainly concentrated in Tigrillo inlet, the Manare peninsula and the Caracas islands. Behaviour was mostly determined by season, depth, distance to the coast, group size and group composition. Throughout the year, the Park provided areas for refuge, feeding, and resting. It is therefore imperative to promote management and conservation policies that prevent any negative impacts from the increasing tourism and fishing activities we observed. © 2021 International Whaling Commission.

Participatory mapping is a useful technique in MPA's management that uses local knowledge to map ecosystem services and associated conflicts and threats. The goal of this study was to analyse the stakeholders' perception on uses and ecosystem services in the Cíes Islands archipelago, located in the National Park of the Galician Atlantic Islands. Results from semi-structured questionnaires conducted with different stakeholders, indicated that landscape values and marine research were the most valued ecosystem services, although slight differences were found between fishers and other sectors. The activities exerting the highest pressure on the protected area were fishing and tourism. Conflicts were mainly associated with the co-existence of activities within the MPA, potentially threatening conservation goals.

To maintain the stocks of populations targeted by local fisheries, the Palavasian Coast Marine Reserve (PCMR) was set up in 2016 at the request of the fishermen of the Palavas-les-Flots prud'homie. The aim of this study is to study the initial effects of the management of this area on the fish population. To do this, fish populations were monitored inside and outside the reserve for 4 years. A significant increase of the overall abundance and biomass of the target species, as well as changes in the population assemblages, were observed from the third year.

We compare the ecological information obtained using intensive monitoring of coral-reef fish populations with that which would be procured from less exhaustive sampling. At each of four sites in the Philippines, we surveyed all non-cryptic fish species in eight transects every month for up to 3. years. We first tested for changes across years and seasons in fish density, size and species richness. We then compared these results obtained by using all data to those obtained in simulated protocols that restricted effort in ways that were relevant in practical marine resource management. We demonstrate the potential for reducing time in the water (number of surveys or number of transects) or in the number of species surveyed (proportions of those that were easily identified or locally fished) with little loss of information. Bimonthly surveys detected most of the overall but few of the seasonal trends that were identified with monthly sampling; far fewer trends were detected with less frequent surveying. Similarly, most trends were detected when at least four transects were carried out monthly. Most trends were also detected when all possible easily-identified species or at least 75% of fished species were considered. Indeed, ability to detect overall trends remained high even when only fished species were considered in four transects monthly. We conclude that some selective sampling protocols can be sufficiently sensitive to detect important trends, and that the choice of protocol will depend on the objective of the research or management. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,2532-2542,,11,143,,Biol.

As such, an important question in conservation is whether the implementation of marine protected areas (MPAs), which is a commonly used marine conservation tool, works as effectively for sex-changers as for non-sex-changers. To address this issue, we used meta-analyses of the ratio of fish abundances inside vs. outside MPAs to determine whether sex change affects the extent to which fish densities respond to protection. When all data were considered, there were similar responses to protection irrespective of reproductive mode. However, when analyses were restricted to older reserves (at least 10 years' protection), female-first sex-changers consistently benefited from protection. Non-sex-changers and male-first sex-changers showed more variable responses to protection and, as a result, there were no significant differences between fish with different reproductive modes in their overall response to protection. The same results were observed when the effects of fisheries status (targeted vs. not targeted) were controlled. Our results support the use of MPAs as important components of conservation and demonstrate that old reserves are most consistently beneficial to female-first sex-changing species. Finally, our results highlight the fact that some effects of protection are only detectable after several generations. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.",,187-197,,1,141,,Biol.

Therefore, the aim of this paper was to fully understand the impacts of COVID-19 on terrestrial and marine protected areas (PAs). To address this concern, we conducted a systematic review on the literature of the impacts of the pandemic on PAs. We used the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines which helps authors to follow certain specific criteria when they make a systematic review on a topic. Following it, we examined five databases, together with complementary search perform in Google Scholar. Lastly, we made a qualitative assessment of articles retrieved, studying short-term changes, and identifying positive and negative effects, as well as challenges and opportunities that arise. After identifying, screening, and selecting, we included 14 journal articles published between February 2020 and May 2021. In the results we showed how the new virus-related restrictions affected the ecological, social and management dimensions of PAs. We discuss how these conserved areas gained social relevance during the pandemic but, at the same time, the vulnerability of related actors increased. Also, we suggested that some social problems differed between develop and developing countries. Additionally, digital tendencies consolidated in PAs management, research, and engagement. Overall sustainability of these places was compromised. We concluded that COVID-19 made humans to see everything through the lenses of health and PAs were not the exception. © 2021, Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Peru.

The circumstances and policies of two contrasting metropolitan areas - Săo Paulo and London - are reviewed to demonstrate both the diversity of challenges that may exist and some of the measures that may be taken; the potential for cross-fertilization of ideas and policies in different urban contexts is then explored. Săo Paulo has experienced great increases in population and extent since the middle of the twentieth century, with illegal settlements in vulnerable areas and risks including flooding and landslides, as well as inadequate infrastructure systems. London faces risks of overheating, flooding and sea level rise as a result of climate change. Spatial planning policies to maintain and improve environmental functioning and ecosystem services delivery in Săo Paulo and London are reviewed, considering the relevant hierarchical levels and indicating some specific targets.

The Sundarbans reserved forest of Bangladesh constitutes around 51% of the country's protected area and more than 3 million people depend on its resources. But the forest is under threats by anthropogenic interventions and climate change. The objective of this paper is to synthesize published works on the impact of climate change on Sundarbans. This paper is based on the desktop review of relevant literature focused on the impact of climate change on Sundarbans. Snowball sampling method was used to select relevant literature. This article conceptualizes from the spatial and temporal point of view. Along with the anthropogenic pressure, climate change has sped up the annihilation of Sundarbans though increasing level of salinity, decreasing freshwater supply, irregular rainfall and sea level rise. The frequency and severity of landfalls of cyclonic storms over the coastal zones increased in the last couple of decades. Projection suggests that one-meter rise in sea level is enough to make Sundarbans disappear from the map of Bangladesh.

Moreover, establishing germination protocols for endemic and threatened species is most interesting for restoration and management plans that focus on habitat conservation. Seed germination was analysed in four species of the genus Limonium (L. virgatum, L. narbonense, L. girardianum and L. santapolense) growing in two saline habitats on the eastern coast of the Iberian Peninsula. The study aim was to compare responses of seed germination to different temperature regimes. Seeds were collected in two protected areas, 'L'Albufera de Valencia' (province of Valencia) and 'Clot de Galvany' (province of Alicante). Responses to temperature were checked within a constant range, 10-30 °C at 5 °C intervals, by considering the environmental conditions at both sampling sites. The final germination percentage and mean germination time (MGT) were calculated after 30 days. In order to compare thermal responses, base temperature (Tb) and thermal time (S) were determined for each species. The possible correlations of soil parameters with the species' germination pattern were also analysed. To identify distinct behavioural groups, a non-linear principal component analysis was performed. Significant differences between species were found in the velocity of germination. A fast response as opportunistic germination was observed in all the species. The base temperature and thermal time showed significant differences in competitiveness between species. © 2018 Academic Press.",,286-291,,1,46,,Not. Bot. Horti Agrobot.

We modelled present-day and future potential geographic distributions of two sets of vertebrate and plant species — one associated with dry warm conditions and another with cold conditions — using a maximum entropy algorithm. The future geographic distribution was modelled considering three global circulation models and two extreme representation concentration pathways. Our results showed an elevational change of species composition from cold to warm conditions, increasing the range of the xeric and decreasing of the mesic, with the potential extinction of the endemic species associated to the cooler conditions. The species associated to cooler environment probably could be restricted to the canyons in the western slope of the sierra, that might function as refugia.

The aim of the analysis was to provide a working model for the integration of the assessment and conservation of built heritage into broader projects devoted to the sustainable restoration of natural spaces undergoing evident declines in habitability. With a population of 31,905, San Javier is located on the edge of the Mar Menor, which is one of the largest permanent salt water lagoons in the Mediterranean. It forms part of the coastal region of the Autonomous Community of the Region of Murcia in the southeast of the Iberian Peninsula. San Javier is one of four municipalities that administer this unique ecosystem. However, despite being designated as a protected natural site since its 14 beaches are one of the most important national and international tourist destinations in this Autonomous Community, since 2016, it has suffered one of the worst environmental crises in its history. One of the outcomes of this situation is that the government bodies involved have begun to seek new models for the area's complete regeneration that would enable sustainable growth and also include the social and economic sectors that have, to date, played a secondary role in managing the area. In this regard, cultural heritage should play a key role. The aim of this study was to demonstrate that the region's cultural heritage, despite the complex issues involved in its management, especially for the local administrative bodies, can contribute to the creation of new models for regeneration. Besides the added value of cultural prestige provided by this area's unique cultural landscape, which is a further legacy of the region's history and artistic development, engaging with cultural heritage facilitates the revival of traditional systems that contribute to environmental improvement. Finally, this paper provides tools that enable local groups, and, above all, the residents themselves, to identify with the values of their cultural heritage. © 2019 by the author.",,,,1,12,,Sustainability,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI,,,,Bathing houses; coastal lagoon; conservation management; cultural heritage; cultural landscape; Cultural landscape; environmental assessment; environmental restoration; government; heritage conservation; Iberian Peninsula; Immovable properties; Local governance; Mar menor; Mar Menor; Murcia [Spain]; protected area; San javier; Spain; sustainability; Sustainability; sustainable development; tourist destination,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Resource availability and vegetation complexity owing to human influence may increase the potential that a habitat would lose its species. Conservation biology aims to understand how to soften human influence and maintain viable in situ populations. Aims: We evaluated the non-volant mammal's richness and abundance in an Atlantic Forest protected area. Specifically, we tested (1) the effect of distance from water resource and vegetation (canopy and understorey cover) on richness and abundance and (2) the effects of anthropogenic pressure such as domestic dog abundance, distances from human settlements, and from the road on the community of non-volant mammals. Methods: We collected the data from January through December of 2017 in 20 sampling sites by using live traps (for small mammals), active search, sand plots and camera traps. Key results: We recorded 22 species of non-volant mammals, among them four endemic, two endangered and two invasive exotic species. The main covariates that affected the structure and composition of the non-volant mammal's assemblage was the domestic dog abundance, which repels most of the species into the forest and water resources, which attract the species to forest edges. Conclusions: Our results indicated that the negative impact of domestic dog presence in the non-volant mammal's community is so evident that it could generate changes in the composition, richness, and local distribution of the species. Implications: We suggest that management action in this protected area must initiate a control of domestic dogs to minimise their impact. © 2021 CSIRO.",,323-333,,4,48,,Wildl.

These fragile environments are recognised as conservation priorities by all relevant global and European policies. Bottom-contacting fisheries are an important source of anthropogenic disturbance to the seafloor’s physical and ecological integrity having immediate and destructive consequences on stony reefs and compromising ecological functions. This study, aimed to assess the ecological status (community composition and functions) of two stony reef areas -Northwest and Hinder Banks study sites -in Belgian waters using multiple remote sensing tools. Insights on the study sites’ geomorphological context and fishing patterns were gained using echo-sounding and publicly available satellite data. Video-based benthic community data were assessed against the exposure to fishing pressure using a trait-based approach linked to the biotas’ resistance and recovery potential. In the Northwest study site, between 2019 and 2022 there was a significant decline in the abundance of benthic species classified with low resistance and recovery potential to trawling. Conversely, there was a notable increase in species with moderate scores. During the same period, this site experienced an eight-fold increase in fishing effort and the hydroacoustic data revealed the presence of several trawl-marks in 2022. Similar changes in benthic communities were observed in the Hinder Banks too. Here, the abundance of species with low resistance and recovery potential was significantly lower in locations that were geomorphologically exposed to trawling compared to sheltered ones. Exposed locations had a higher abundance of opportunistic species, with moderate to high scores. The presence of several trawl marks on the seafloor was observed in the exposed locations, corresponding to fishing hotspots identified in the satellite data. Trawling activities marginally impacted richness and total abundance, but negatively altered benthic functional composition. The findings of this study provide scientific evidence of the detrimental impact of bottom-contacting fisheries on conservation priority biotopes and argues against the coexistence of such activities with Marine Protected Areas. The results of our investigation are of interest to environmental managers for the adequate implementation of environmental legislation in the face of rapid and widespread anthropogenic changes.

Many calls have been made to at least partially offset climate change impacts through local conservation management. However, a mechanistic understanding of the interactions of multiple stressors is generally lacking for habitat-forming species; preventing the development of sound conservation strategies. We examined the effectiveness of no-take marine protected areas (MPAs) at enhancing structural complexity and resilience to climate change on populations of an overexploited and long-lived octocoral. We used long-term data over eight populations, subjected to varying levels of disturbances, and Integral Projection Models to understand how the overfishing and mass-mortality events shape the stochastic dynamics of the Mediterranean red coral Corallium rubrum. Marine protected areas largely reduced colony partial mortality (i.e. shrinkage), enhancing the structural complexity of coral populations. However, there were no significant differences in individual mortality or population growth rates between protected and exploited populations. In contrast, warming had detrimental consequences for the long-term viability of red coral populations, driving steady declines and potential local extinctions due to sharp effects in survival rates. Stochastic demographic models revealed only a weak compensatory effect of MPAs on the impacts of warming. Policy implications. Our results suggest that marine protected areas (MPAs) are an effective local conservation tool for enhancing the structural complexity of red coral populations. However, MPAs may not be enough to ensure red coral's persistence under future increases in thermal stress. Accordingly, conservation strategies aiming to ensure the persistence and functional role of red coral populations should include management actions at both local (well-enforced MPAs) and global scales (reductions in greenhouse gas emissions). Finally, this study unravels the divergent demographic consequences that can arise from multiple stressors and highlights the key role of demography in better understanding and predicting the consequences of combined impacts for vulnerable ecosystems. © 2018 The Authors.

In coral reef restoration, transplantation of nursery-grown corals is seen as a potential method to mitigate reef degradation and enhance recovery. The transplanted reef should be capable of recruiting new juvenile corals to ensure long-term resilience. Here, we quantified how coral transplantation influenced natural coral recruitment at a large-scale coral reef restoration site in Seychelles, Indian Ocean. Between November 2011 and June 2014 a total of 24, 431 nursery-grown coral colonies from 10 different coral species were transplanted in 5, 225 m2 (0.52 ha) of degraded reef at the no-take marine reserve of Cousin Island Special Reserve in an attempt to assist in natural reef recovery. We present the results of research and monitoring conducted before and after coral transplantation to evaluate the positive effect that the project had on coral recruitment and reef recovery at the restored site. We quantified the density of coral recruits (spat <1 cm) and juveniles (colonies 1-5 cm) at the transplanted site, a degraded control site and a healthy control site at the marine reserve. We used ceramic tiles to estimate coral settlement and visual surveys with 1 m2 quadrats to estimate coral recruitment. Six months after tile deployment, total spat density at the transplanted site (123.4 ± 13.3 spat m-2) was 1.8 times higher than at healthy site (68.4 ± 7.8 spat m-2) and 1.6 times higher than at degraded site (78.2 ± 7.17 spat m-2). Tw o years after first transplantation, the total recruit density was highest at healthy site (4.8 ± 0.4 recruits m-2), intermediate at transplanted site (2.7 ± 0.4 recruits m-2), and lowest at degraded site (1.7 ± 0.3 recruits m-2). The results suggest that large-scale coral restoration may have a positive influence on coral recruitment and juveniles. Te effect of key project techniques on the results are discussed. Tis study supports the application of large-scale, science-based coral reef restoration projects with at least a 3-year time scale to assist the recovery of damaged reefs. Copyright Phanor H.

These highly diverse ecosystems are threatened by human stressors such as fishing activities, gas and oil exploitation, and climate change. Since their life-history traits such as long lifespan and slow growth rates make CWCs very vulnerable to potential threats, it is a foremost challenge to explore the viability of restoration actions to enhance and speed up their recovery. In contrast to terrestrial and shallow-water marine ecosystems, ecological restoration in deep marine environments has received minimal attention. This review, by means of a systematic literature search, aims to identify CWC restoration challenges, assess the most suitable techniques to restore them, and discuss future perspectives. Outcomes from the few restoration actions performed to date on CWCs, which have lasted between 1 to 4 years, provide evidence of the feasibility of coral transplantation and artificial reef deployments. Scientific efforts should focus on testing novel and creative restoration techniques, especially to scale up to the spatial and temporal scales of impacts. There is still a general lack of knowledge about the biological, ecological and habitat characteristics of CWC species exploration of which would aid the development of effective restoration measures. To ensure the long-term viability and success of any restoration action it is essential to include holistic and long-term monitoring programs, and to ideally combine active restoration with natural spontaneous regeneration (i.e., passive restoration) strategies such as the implementation of deep-sea marine protected areas (MPAs). We conclude that a combination of passive and active restoration approaches with involvement of local society would be the best optimal option to achieve and ensure CWC restoration success. © Copyright © 2021 Montseny, Linares, Carreiro-Silva, Henry, Billett, Cordes, Smith, Papadopoulou, Bilan, Girard, Burdett, Larsson, Strömberg, Viladrich, Barry, Baena, Godinho, Grinyó, Santín, Morato, Sweetman, Gili and Gori.",,,,,8,,Front.

Focusing on protected areas representing montane, arid, coastal, and marine ecosystems, we provide examples of climate changeinduced range dynamics, including species' moving out of protected areas, disease range expansions, severe population declines, and even extinctions. Climate change thus presents an immense challenge to protected areas but also an unparalleled opportunity to shift from managing for static, historical community composition toward managing for dynamic, novel assemblages, thus complementing the traditional individual-species approach with an ecosystem-services approach.

It is based on a journey across the steppe; what I learned from people, especially scientists, I met; and research in printed sources. The article aims to be an example of how environmental historians can integrate fieldwork with more conventional historical research. The first section considers ‘nature transformed’. Since the conquest by the Russian Empire in the eighteenth century, the steppe grassland has been transformed from pasture for livestock into agricultural land farmed by settlers of European origin. The second section, ‘nature protected’, discusses the Askania Nova biosphere reserve, where an area of native grassland has been protected since the late-nineteenth century. The reserve also contains an artificial woodland park and grazing animals brought from all over the world. The third section, ‘nature destroyed’, is about the Oleshkovskie sands, on the left bank of the estuary of the Dnepr river opposite the city of Kherson. Since ancient times, a pine forest grew on the sands. European settlers cleared much of the forest for grazing, leading to erosion. Trees have since been replanted in a circle surrounding a curious landscape of sand dunes, which have become a habitat for rare plant species. The sands were also used a bombing range for Warsaw Pact air forces during the Cold War. © 2016 The White Horse Press.",,414-439,,2,9,,Glob.

In this study, we used poaching data collected through the Management Information System (MIST) and wildlife camera trap data collected by the Tropical Ecology Assessment and Monitoring (TEAM) network from 2014 to 2017 in Volcanoes National Park, Rwanda. We implemented co-occurrence multi-season occupancy models that accounted for imperfect detection to investigate the effect of poaching on initial occupancy, colonization, and extinction of five mammal species. Specifically, we focused on two species of conservation concern (mountain gorilla [Gorilla beringei beringei] and golden monkey [Cercopithecus mitis kandti]), and three species targeted by poachers (black-fronted duiker [Cephalophus nigrifrons], bushbuck [Tragelaphus scriptus], and African buffalo [Syncerus caffer]). We found that the probability of local extinction was highest in sites with poaching activity for golden monkey and bushbuck. In addition, the probability of initial occupancy for golden monkey was highest in sites without poaching activity. We only found weak evidence of effects of poaching on parameters governing the occupancy dynamics of the other species. All species showed evidence of poaching presence affecting the probability of detection of the wildlife species. This is the first study to our knowledge to combine direct threat observations from ranger-based monitoring data with camera trap wildlife observations to quantify the effect of poaching on wildlife. Given the widespread collection of ranger-based monitoring and camera trap data, our approach is broadly applicable to numerous protected areas and has the potential to significantly improve conservation management. Specifically, the relationship between poaching activity and wildlife population dynamics can be combined with information on the relationship between ranger patrols and poaching activity to develop models useful for making wise decisions about ranger patrol deployment. © 2021 by the Ecological Society of America",,,,7,31,,Ecol.

Effective conservation actions require the delineation of conservation units to appropriately reflect the spatial scale of intraspecific variation and local adaptation. Towards this goal, we used the most comprehensive genetic and genomic database for Atlantic salmon to date, covering the entire North American range of the species. The database included microsatellite data from 9142 individuals from 149 sampling locations and data from a medium-density SNP array providing genotypes for >3000 SNPs for 50 sampling locations. We used neutral and putatively selected loci to integrate adaptive information in the definition of conservation units. Bayesian clustering with the microsatellite data set and with neutral SNPs identified regional groupings largely consistent with previously published regional assessments. The use of outlier SNPs did not result in major differences in the regional groupings, suggesting that neutral markers can reflect the geographic scale of local adaptation despite not being under selection. We also performed assignment tests to compare power obtained from microsatellites, neutral SNPs and outlier SNPs. Using SNP data substantially improved power compared to microsatellites, and an assignment success of 97% to the population of origin and of 100% to the region of origin was achieved when all SNP loci were used. Using outlier SNPs only resulted in minor improvements to assignment success to the population of origin but improved regional assignment.

In this study, a methodology was developed to estimate the area of responsible observation of sea turtles by tourists during their nesting process in marine-coastal protected areas, using the Camaronal National Wildlife Refuge as an application site. This methodology uses variables related to olive ridley turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea) nesting behavior in order to determine the area and number of observers recommended under certain space limitations and considering the turtle arrivals recorded during the 2013-2015 period. In those three years, 15515 olive ridley turtle arrivals were recorded in relation to the lunar phases; the highest number of arrivals occurred during the waning quarter of the moon. The proposed area to observe sea turtles at the Camaronal site was 51.4 m2 and the area to observe a sea turtle corresponds to a circle of~500 m2 in tour groups of 10 people maximum. Respecting the suggested group size would not significantly alter nesting behavior.

Our results suggest that the diets of both mustelids are composed primarily of fish of the family Anostomidae (Headstanders).

The CIELC is an estuary with spatial and temporal differences regarding its hydrobiochemical properties and this characteristic has been related to changes in biological predictors such as the otolith morphometrics of estuarine fish. Therefore, this study aimed to verify the responses of otolith dimensions to sexual and temporal changes, throughout the CIELC. In total, 163 wild catfish C. spixii and 55 G. genidens were collected during the winter period of 2009, 2017, and 2018 in the CIELC. In general, the weight and length of lapillus otoliths of C. spixii and G. genidens were good metrics adjusted to fish growth. Females of C. spixii were significantly larger than males and subadults and there were no significant differences regarding the sexual approach of G. genidens. The temporal approach showed significant differences between the years for both catfish. C. spixii sampled in 2009 and 2018 showed greater total length (TL) and total weight (TW) when compared with fish from 2014 and 2017 (p <0.05). G. genidens collected in 2018 had greater TL and TW than the specimens sampled in the other years (p <0.05). Otolith dimensions seem to have followed this same pattern, since females of C. spixii had higher values for otolith weight, height, and length than males and subadults (p < 0.05).

This problem extends to protected areas, which, while often well-conserved, can be too small and isolated to maintain species that exist at low densities and require large contiguous areas of habitat (e.g. some large mammals). Costa Rica has been at the forefront of tropical forest conservation and a large proportion of the country’s land area is currently under some form of protection. One such area is the northwest portion of Costa Rica, which is an extremely biodiverse region with several noteworthy national and privately-owned protected areas. However, each protected area is an isolated island in a sea of deforestation. Within Costa Rica’s existing framework of biological corridors, we propose four sub-corridors as targets for restoration and full protection. These sub-corridors would link five major protected areas in northwest Costa Rica, with all of them linking to larger protected areas in the central portion of the country, while impacting a small number of people who reside within the corridors. After natural or active reforestation of the corridors, the result would be a contiguous protected area of 348,000 ha. The proposed sub-corridors would represent a 3.7% increase in protected area size in the region and only 0.2% of Costa Rica’s total land area. Using the jaguar (Panthera onca) as a model umbrella species, we estimated that each current isolated protected area could support between 8–104 individuals. Assuming lack of dispersal between protected areas (distance between each ranges from 8.1 to 24.9 km), these population sizes are unlikely to be viable in the long term. However, the combined protected areas, connected by biological sub-corridors, could support about 250 jaguars, a population size with a higher probability of surviving. Our study shows that focusing conservation efforts on a relatively small area of Costa Rica could create a large protected area derived from numerous small isolated preserves. Copyright Matthew D.

To ensure responsible development and to protect the natural environment, it is essential to understand and mitigate the potential impacts on wildlife, particularly on seabirds and marine mammals. However, fully understanding the effects of offshore wind energy production requires characterising its global geographic occurrence and its potential overlap with marine species. This study aims to generate risk maps of interaction between offshore and seabirds and marine mammals based on the distribution of their potential foraging areas. These maps will allow visualisation of the spatial occurrence of risk and its severity for both groups. To achieve it, we built a structural equation model of three levels (plankton, fish, and top predators) to predict small-ranged seabirds and marine mammal spatial richness as a proxy of potential feeding sites. Later, we overlapped these maps with global wind density (as a proxy of potential offshore development areas) to identify risk areas. Our results pointed to simplified trophic chain models that effectively explained the richness of small-ranged seabirds and marine mammals. Our risk maps reveal a high overlap with potential offshore wind development. Low-risk areas were located mainly in so-called Global North countries, suggesting vast knowledge gaps and potential hidden risks in these areas. Importantly, the highest risk values were found outside the Marine Protected Areas for both groups, underscoring the necessity for strategic planning and the expansion of renewable energy sources to avert potential conservation challenges in the future. © 2024 The Author(s)",,,,,373,,J.

Worldwide, protected areas are facing increasing pressures to join human development and biodiversity conservation. There are clear difficulties in connecting use and conservation, and there is also a gap between the planning of objectives and the management of protected areas. To improve management effectiveness, we developed a general framework to integrate the steps into an operational system. This framework was created from a social perspective, prioritizing the analysis of uses and activities, and the territorial conflicts in the protected area. In this case study, we applied the framework to Bahía de San Antonio Protected Natural Area (BSAPNA), Argentina. The results have enabled us to identify four major conflicts that hinder the implementation of the management plan: between uses and conservation; due to incompatibilities between different uses and activities; at the institutional and political level, and due to land-use changes. The framework allows us to define the manifestation of these conflicts in the territory and to identify a series of critical and strategic areas, which are useful to make management recommendations for the examined case. In addition, our modeling approach, that can also be applied to other reserves, provides a solid basis to improve the management of protected areas. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,87,,Land Use Policy,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,Argentina; Bahia de San Antonio; Bahía de San Antonio; Coastal management; coastal zone management; CONFLICTS; CONSERVATION; environmental management; Evaluation framework; land use change; land use planning; Land-use planning; protected area; Protected area,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We used non-invasive genetic sampling to estimate grizzly bear density and abundance in southwestern Alberta. We established 899 bear rub objects (e.g., tree, power pole, fence post) for hair sample collection across the study area by surveying trail networks, using geographic information system layers, and working with >70 landowners to identify priority sampling areas. The study area included 2 management zones: the Recovery Zone where the objective was to recover the grizzly bear population, and a Support Zone intended to maintain those bears not exclusively within the Recovery Zone. We visited rub objects every 3 weeks from late May through early November for 8 visits (7 sampling occasions) per field season. We also allowed for opportunistically collected hair samples (e.g., trapped bears, hair at agricultural bear-conflict sites). We identified species, individual identity, and sex based on nuclear DNA extracted from hair follicles. From 2013 through 2014, we identified 164 individual grizzly bears. Using spatially explicit capture–recapture models (SECR), we estimated density in 2 ways. First, we estimated density for each sex and year separately (2013: M = 9.2/1,000 km2 in the Recovery Zone and 8.1/1,000 km2 in the Support Zone, F = 14.9/1,000 km2 in the Recovery Zone and 13.6/1,000 km2 in the Support Zone; 2014: M = 7.2/1,000 km2 in the Recovery Zone and 5.7/1,000 km2 in the Support Zone, F = 9.0/1,000 km2 in the Recovery Zone and 8.5/1,000 km2 in the Support Zone). Second, we did not allow density to vary across years and instead estimated a single density for the study area (M = 8.0/1,000 km2 in the Recovery Zone and 7.1/1,000 km2 in the Support Zone, F = 12.4/1,000 km2 in the Recovery Zone and 10.0/1,000 km2 in the Support Zone). Though yearly variation occurred, we derived from our density estimates an expected abundance of approximately 67.4 resident grizzly bears, indicating a 4% per year increase since a 2007 estimate of 51 bears. These SECR density estimates pertain only to bears with home ranges that were centered within the study area. Using traditional capture-mark-recapture (CMR) models with the same data yielded a higher estimate of bears because it included all bears that were using the study area (2013: F = 68.9, M = 102.6; 2014: F = 63.0, M = 108.6), including >50% of bears previously genotyped in Montana or British Columbia. In contrast with the SECR estimates, the CMR estimates represent the number of bears that southwestern Alberta residents could have encountered (i.e., the population of bears that had potential to have been involved in conflict). Shifts in grizzly bear distribution resulted in large changes in our SECR density estimates between years, whereas our estimate of the number of bears using the area remained constant. We recommend increased inter-jurisdictional monitoring and management of this international grizzly bear population. © 2016 The Wildlife Society. © The Wildlife Society, 2016",,1152-1166,,7,80,,J.

However, studies of the flora of this biome remain deficient, especially in scientifically neglected areas, such as the Seridó region. Located between the states of Rio Grande do Norte (RN) and Paraíba, the Seridó region has an underestimated floristic diversity, especially for non-arboreal components such as climbers. Given this scenario, the study aimed to survey the climbers of the Seridó Ecological Station, a federal conservation unit located in the RN state, as well as to provide a multiple access online identification key. Collections were carried out from 2018 to 2019, as well as consultation of material deposited at the UFRN herbarium. In total, 56 species were listed, being 33 herbaceous and 23 woody climbers, respectively, adding 14 species of climbers to the previous checklist of the unit. Five new occurrences were found for the state of Rio Grande do Norte: Cuscuta globosa, Cuscuta partita (Convolvulaceae), Macroptilium bracteatum (Fabaceae), Heteropterys trichanthera and Tetrapterys longibracteata (Malpighiaceae), being the latest a new occurrence of the genus Tetrapterys for the state. Convolvulaceae is the most representative family (18 spp.), followed by Fabaceae (10 spp.), Apocynaceae (eight spp.) and Cucurbitaceae (five spp.).

Six sites were selected within the XJSP and analyzed for sediment chemistry, toxicity, and benthic community descriptors using Sediment Quality Triad approach (SQT). Whole-sediment Toxicity Identification Evaluation (TIE) was employed as a complementary line of evidence to confirm the presence of domestic effluent discharges as a potential stressor. The SQT showed that sediments collected within XJSP are impacted by contaminants, exhibiting chronic toxicity and changes in benthic community. TIE results indicated that trace metals, organic contaminants, and ammonia contributed to the observed effects.

Many MPAs, some of which include estuarine zones, are affected by contamination sources; the discharge of chemicals into aquatic systems results in sediment contamination, risks to benthic systems, and consequent negative effects on ecological function. This study evaluated sediment quality in estuaries located within the Mosaic of Marine Protected Areas of Săo Paulo State, Brazil (MMPASP) in austral winter and summer: the Verde River (RV), the Una do Prelado River (BU), the Guaraú River (GU), the Preto River (RP), and the Itanhaém River (ITA). Data on sediment chemistry (major and trace metals, as well as hydrocarbons) and whole-sediment toxicity in copepods and amphipods were associated with ecological indices of macrobenthic infaunal organisms in a weight-of-evidence approach meant to estimate the effects at the community level. Results revealed low-to-moderate levels of contamination, with higher concentrations detected at sites influenced by domestic effluent discharges (RP, ITA). Site-specific chemical contamination guidelines were in accordance with biological responses than threshold levels from international benchmarks, indicating a failure of these international criteria to predict effects. Sediments were toxic, and benthic descriptors corroborated these findings. The results reflected a pattern of environmental quality that ranged from relatively good conditions (RV, BU, GU) to poor environmental quality (RP, ITA). We concluded that benthic environments in the estuaries of the Central Shore Marine Protected Area (APAMLC) exhibit a good ecological status in general, but some sites are directly impacted by human activities and exhibit contamination levels associated with biological effects, thereby showing that some portions of these MPAs may be damaged by contamination. Environmental assessments based on the sediment quality triad (SQT) method provide suitable and reliable information on pollution within MPAs and can assist in establishing additional policies to control pollution sources and achieve conservation goals. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,238-248,,,101,,Ecol.

Current challenges include adaptation to global changes and adoption of SDG UNESCO goals. National networks for countries with a significant number of BRs are crucial for consolidating regional networks. This is a pending issue for the Chilean BRs network, which still lacks a public-private governance scheme that would ensure adequate consensus on advancing sustainability in all the units. Chilean BRs encompass a diversity of ecoregions, from high-altitude desert to magellanic moorlands, including offshore islands and a diversity of landscapes and seascapes.

Our objectives were to describe the use of waterholes by white-lipped peccaries groups in a humid site of the Selva Maya and evaluate the effect of humidity may have on the visit frequency, group size and activity patterns. From June to August 2014 and February to April 2015 seven waterholes were monitored using digital camera traps. The visit frequency was estimated by dividing the number of events between 1,000 sampling effort traps night. The minimum group size and age structure were estimated for each separate event. Activity patterns were estimated at one-hour intervals for the dry and rainy seasons. Forty-seven and 185 separate events for the rainy and dry season respectively were obtained. The sampling effort in each period was 630 traps night. For the rainy and dry season we obtained a visit frequency of 74.6 and 293.7 respectively.

The Chilean rocky coast has been exploited for food by coastal gatherers for at least 8500 years BP and probably was an important factor in how prehistoric people were able to colonize the South Americas Pacific Rim. The main species targeted in the past were the same as those today except that now the gatherers are resident and the fishing activity is more intense and persistent. 2. With many pertinent studies from around the world having been published on this topic, mostly conducted in Marine Reserves, this review tries to identify the main patterns that can help us recognize, in the Chilean intertidal, the degree of exploitation on wave exposed and wave protected rocky shore habitats. 3. Three clear patterns were identified depending on the trophic level adopted by the human gatherers in the food chain of the intertidal zone. First, when the humans act as herbivores, collecting the large laminarian Durvillaea antarctica, adult plants disappear from the accessible sites, especially the midlittoral, semi-exposed and exposed habitats. 4. Second, when humans harvest the ecologically important herbivorous archeogastropoda Fissurella spp., this results in the red alga Mazzaella laminarioides covering almost 100% of the midlittoral rocks. Third, when humans become top predators by collecting the muricid carnivore Concholepas concholepas, then bivalves, mainly Perumytilus purpuratus, cover the rocks in multiple layers. 5. These patterns contribute to the evaluation of the state of conservation of the Chilean rocky intertidal shores, especially because the north and the south are beginning to be connected by a new coastal road. Thus it is necessary to evaluate urgently, on a large spatial scale, the state of conservation of these communities, in order to help select the appropriate places for establishing Marine Reserves.

However, the consequences of such management on non-target species are frequently neglected and unknown. This study examines the effects of traditional management practices of scrubland clearance by controlled burning to improve menaced carnivores on non-target species: rodent and insectivores in Dońana National Park (SW of Iberian Peninsula). We used capture-recapture methods to examine changes in abundance in areas that were burnt one and three years ago, compared with unburnt areas. Results showed that burnt areas had higher species abundances, but mainly on the ecotonal boundaries. Species abundances showed dramatic seasonal differences with high abundances in autumn and winter, and very low abundance in summer. Our study revealed that scrubland management by controlled fires increases the abundance of small mammal species, mainly Mus spretus and Apodemus sylvaticus. We found only four small mammal species between the different treatments. However, some species that were formerly abundant in Dońana, such as Elyomis quercinus, were found only in burnt areas. Our results suggest that controlled burning is not contributing to the current loss of biotic diversity in this community. © 2013 Elsevier Masson SAS.",,01-Apr,,,49,,Acta Oecol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Andalucia; Apodemus sylvaticus; biodiversity; biomass burning; carnivore; Crocidura russula; Donana National Park; Dońana National Park; ecotone; Ecotone generation; Eliomys quercinus; habitat loss; habitat management; Iberian Peninsula; management practice; Mus spretus; protected area; scrub; Scrub management; small mammal; Spain,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The resulting floristic list includes species identified through systematic sampling in the study area for one year, as well as EBT species stored in the collection of the Universidad de Concepción Herbarium. We identified 292 species of vascular plants, where 71 species are endemic, 124 are native, 99 are alien species.

Using a comparative case study design, this paper explores the interplay between institutional arrangements and management outcomes in two adjacent yet institutionally slightly differing MPAs, encompassing a shared marine trench and a partially inhabited archipelago landscape – namely the Koster Sea National Park in Sweden and the Outer Hvaler National Park in Norway. How can differences in the institutional designs governing the two parks, be linked to differences in sustainability outcomes? What lessons can be learnt for the design of MPAs? The study shows that institutional design influences management outcomes in some respects but not in others. Differences in overall management systems had no noticeable effects on sustainability outcomes and how they were perceived, while the differing objectives of the parks and how they are made operational seem to have affected the outcomes. But they have also influenced actors' expectations and their assessment of outcomes. According to this study, conservation arrangements can be broadened beyond mere nature protection. However, the study also underlines the challenges of locally adapted and participatory institutional designs and emphasises the importance of taking users’ varying expectations related to social and economic values into account throughout the whole process. The establishment of national parks is no guarantee for broader sustainable development per se; this also requires resources and proper embedding and integration with relevant sectors and tiers in the overall management system. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,51-63,,,139,,Ocean Coast.

Our seas are under increasing pressure but lag behind in protection. Climate change, intensifying use and biodiversity loss challenge current practises and imply trade-offs between conservation and use. While nature conservation ranks high internationally, national protection attempts often result in controversies, with actors aligning in opposing advocacy coalitions—for and against the proposals. Policy-oriented learning is one way to overcome controversies. It involves processes whereby actors gain new knowledge and experiences, leading to changed beliefs about the problems and possible solutions. We aimed to explore and explain policy-oriented learning through a comparative longitudinal case study of two Swedish national park planning processes with different outcomes: Koster Sea national park, established 2009, and Sankt Anna archipelago remaining without park. Which characteristics related to context, actors and processes influence policy-oriented learning in conflictive marine conservation processes? The results suggest that a set of complementary factors explain the different outcomes. First, learning is facilitated by contexts where actors from both coalitions depend on the resource and its protection and have experience of collaboration, and where conservation planning is well integrated with other governance processes. Second, engaged key actors with moderate views facilitating interactions and able to identify common interests and deescalate conflicts are important — supported, third, by various forums allowing exchange of knowledge and learning across coalitions. © 2022 The Authors.

The species is traded in dried form for traditional medicine and alive for the aquarium trade. Here we provide the most current life history, abundance and distribution information available for H. comes. These data should be helpful to researchers, and to management agencies in countries signatory to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), tasked to implement strategies ensuring that trade is not detrimental to wild populations of H. comes (listed on Appendix II). Common names: (aspecific to H. comes, bincludes H. comes and possibly other local species): aTiger tail seahorse (Eng), bKuda laut, bUndok undok (Bahasa) (C. Kuang, pers. comm.), aKabayo-(kabayo) sa gasang/bdagat (Cebuano), bKabayo sa dagat (Tagalog), bKuro-kabayo (Waráy Waráy), bUndok undok (Tausug) (M. Pajaro, pers. comm.), aMa Num Hang Plong (Thai) (R. Karuwancharoen, pers. comm.), bCa ngua Den (Vietnamese) (T. Ky, pers. comm.). Conservation status: IUCN Red List of Threatened Species: VU A2cd (2001), a precautionary listing inferring overall numerical declines of 30-50%. Listed on CITES Appendix II in May 2004. Identification: Adults are commonly black or brown with yellow saddle shapes on their dorsal surface and yellow stripes on the tail. May have mottled patterns on body and fine white lines radiating from the eyes. Trunk rings: 11, tail rings: modally 35-36 (range 34-37), head length: snout length ratio 2.2 (1.9-2.5), dorsal fin rays: 18 (17-19) pectoral fin rays: 17 (16-19). Distinguished from similarly sized sympatric congeners H. spinosissimus (Hs) and H. kuda (Hk) by 2 cheek spines (Hs: 1 or 2, Hk: 1, rounded), a low coronet with 5 knobs (Hs: raised with 4-5 points, Hk: rounded, turned back, may have broad flanges), and a prominent nose spine (Hs & Hk: low or none) (Lourie et al. 2004). Distribution: Wild H. comes are confirmed from Indonesia (south Sumatra, south Kalimantan), Malaysia (Johor, Penang), Singapore, Thailand (west coast) and Viet Nam (Khan Hoa) and the Philippines (Lourie et al. 2004, S. Lourie, unpublished data). Greatest abundances are thought to occur in the central Philippines, although the species is widely distributed in the Philippines from the provinces of Bohol, Cebu, Eastern Samar, Iloilo, Leyte, Masbate, Northern Samar, Quezon, Samar, Sorsogon, Surigao Del Norte and Zambales (A. Maypa, unpublished data., M. Pajaro, pers. comm., Perante et al. 2002). Animals are rarely reported from Palawan province (A. Vincent, pers. comm., M. Pajaro, pers. comm.). Abundance: (Philippines): (A) Fisheries independent data (i) from marine sanctuaries (no-take fishing zones), show mean densities from 0.002 (S. Morgan, unpublished data) to 0.019 individuals m2 (Perante et al. 2002), (ii) in fishing grounds, adult densities range from 0 to 0.015 ind. m-2 (S. Morgan, unpublished data) where rapid assessments show mean densities of 0.0013 ind. m-2 (A. Maypa, unpublished data). (B) Fisheries dependent catch per unit effort data indicate higher abundances from March-May when the proportion of juveniles increases (Perante et al. 1998). Fishers in Bohol report historical (1969) densities of up to 20 ind. m-2 in areas of aggregation (Perante et al. 2002). Abundances outside the Philippines remain unknown. Habitat and ecology: Inhabits shallow waters ranging from the low tide line to 10 m; deepest record at 20 m (Kuiter 2000, Lourie et al. 2004). Adults are found mainly in reef habitat dominated by stony/hard corals (Porites spp., Montipora spp., Pocillopora spp.) and sponges (Clathria spp., Callyspongia spp.), which are used as holdfasts. Found in seagrass beds where some coral substrate is present (S. Morgan, unpublished data). Young from 25 mm (settlement)-100 mm curved standard length (SLc, measured laterally, from the tip of the snout to the midpoint of the cleithral ring, down the curved length of the trunk to the tip of the tail) inhabit reef-flat macroalgal beds (S. Morgan, unpublished data). In coral reefs, adults are within or under structure by day, rising up to grasp holdfasts at night (Perante et al. 2002); pairs apparently come together at dusk and separate at dawn. Hippocampus comes feeds in a manner similar to other seahorse species, ambushing prey such as amphipods, copepods, caridean and mysid shrimps (Teixeira & Musick 2001, Woods 2002) by suction-feeding (Muller & Osse 1984). Reproduction: Forms stable pairs for at least one reproductive season. The longest recorded partnership lasted 21 months of in situ monitoring (n=1 of n=13 studied pairs) and may have endured longer (Perante et al. 2002). Reproduction is thought to take place every 14-21 days where eggs, 1.4 mm in diameter (Vincent 1990), are transferred from the female to the male. As in all seahorses, fertilization takes place within the male's pouch (Linton & Soloff 1964). Mean broods of 388 ± 18 (standard error, n=91) young are born with a mean SLc of 9-10 mm (Lourie et al. 2004). Mating behaviour typical of other seahorse species, including promenading and partnered revolution around structure (Vincent 1995), has been observed ex situ (S. Morgan, unpublished data). Size at 50% maturity, based on the presence of a mature pouch in males, is 96 mm SLc (78 mm Ht (height, measured laterally from the top of the coronet to the tip of the outstretched tail)), whereas the smallest male confirmed to have carried young measured 105 mm SLc (87 mm Ht). Data collected throughout multiple years indicates that the proportion of males that are pregnant increases with size, reaching an asymptotic maximum of 90% pregnant at sizes >204 mm SLc (170 mm Ht). The point on this curve at which 45% of males are pregnant is 122 mm SLc (100 mm Ht) (L. Brady, unpublished data). The species is thought to live 2.6-3.7 years and reach a theoretical asymptotic SLc of 264 mm1. Threats: (A) Overfishing: In the Philippines, populations are targeted by breath-hold fishers and compressor divers for medicinal and aquarium trade uses (Vincent 1996). The following declines in CPUE (catch per fishing hour) have been estimated in the central Philippines, where the species is abundant relative to other areas: Bohol 67% declines in lantern fishing catch between 1980 and 2000 (n=23 interviewees), Eastern Samar, 93% declines in lantern fishing between 1980 and 2000 (n=24); Surigao del Norte, 100% declines in beach seining catch between ca. 1975 and present (n=14) (A. Maypa, unpublished data). (B) Incidental Catch: H. comes is taken incidentally in illegal gears such as Danish seines and small trawls that target shrimp, prawn and pelagic fishes. Legal gears such as push nets, crab traps, gill nets and enclosure pens also take H. comes (M. Pajaro, unpublished data). (C) Habitat Damage: Destructive blast- and cyanide-fishing occur throughout the species' range, as does coral damage, siltation and sewage pollution (Gomez 1997). Synergistic and depensatory effects of (A)-(C) are unknown, as are the effects of global climate change. (D). Management Capacity: Minimal resources for management and considerable human dependence on marine resources presently hinder effective stewardship (Green et al. 2003). Threats outside the Philippines remain unknown, but trade volumes relative to known abundances suggest that similar pressures exist elsewhere. Conservation action: Listed with all seahorse species (genus Hippocampus) on CITES Appendix II, implemented on 15 May 2004. The 167 signatory Parties (countries) must certify, at the national level, that seahorse exports are not detrimental to wild populations and were legally acquired. In the Philippines, the domestic Fisheries Code has been interpreted as banning collection of species listed on all CITES Appendices, despite the intended sustainable use provisions of Appendix II. In Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand, no policy identifies species-level protection for H. comes, although de facto security may be offered through fisheries and marine park legislation. Conservation Recommendations: (1) Document and further research the species' ecology, life history and distribution, as needed for management. (2) Assess the relative impact of targeted catch vs. bycatch. (3) Protect and rehabilitate the species' habitat, using marine protected areas and other tools. (4) Work with stakeholders in the aquarium, curiosity and traditional medicine trades, to promote sustainable use and to initiate market certification. (5) Promote national management required by CITES, based on best practices and current information. (6) Quantify wild populations and contextualize in situ abundance relative to international trade volumes (live and dried). (7) Improve capacity to trade sustainably (e.g. species specifc import/export records, customs agents with species identification skills, measurement tools, law reform). © Springer 2006.",,311-313,,3,75,,Environ.

Hunting pressure increases the perception of predation risk in ungulates and hares and may force them to create clumped groups within protected areas. Acute effects are showed immediately after harassments and may include displacement of home ranges, alteration of activity rhythms and increased hormone secretions. No study has been carried out yet on behavioural alterations induced by hunting on non-target, legally protected species, whereas these studies should be required to design addressed management and conservation plans. The crested porcupine Hystrix cristata represents a suitable model species to study effects of hunting on protected species, as its ranging movements and activity rhythms are seasonally, stereotypically repeated. My results on individually marked porcupines showed that, when hunting with dogs occurred, a displacement of home range arises towards areas providing easily accessible food resources (i.e. fruits, which do not require digging). This behaviour might prevent porcupines to spend a high amount of time digging bulbs and tubers and, thus, it may result in a reduction of activity bouts. Home range displacement has also been observed only when >10 cm of snow are present on the ground. The presence of hunting dogs increases the predation risk perception by potential prey species, which in turn respond by altering their spatio-temporal behaviour. Wildlife managers should therefore evaluate the use of a small number of specialized dogs for hunting in management and conservation plans, particularly in areas characterized by the presence of endangered and protected species. © 2017, Mammal Research Institute, Polish Academy of Sciences, Bia?owie?a, Poland.",,251-258,,3,62,,Mammal Res.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Berlin Heidelberg,,,,activity pattern; Activity rhythms; Animalia; behavioral response; canid; Canis familiaris; circadian rhythm; conservation management; conservation planning; endangered species; environmental disturbance; home range; human activity; Human disturbance; hunting; Hunting dogs; Hystrix cristata; landscape ecology; Lepus; nontarget organism; predation risk; protected area; Ranging behaviour; risk perception; rodent; snow cover; Snow cover; Ungulata; ungulate,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In November 2018, a traffic-restricted area known as the Special Protection Low Emission Zone (SPLEZ) was established in the core of the city of Madrid, embracing most of its central district. This study aims to evaluate whether the implementation of the LEZ has led to improvements in air quality by analyzing NO2 concentrations in various case scenarios. For this purpose, data from the TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) onboard the Sentinel-5 precursor (Sentinel-5P) were used. The pre- and post-LEZ implementation seasonal analysis (from July 2018 to May 2019) and the entirety of 2022 indicated that the epicenter of transport-related NO2 concentrations did not lie within its boundaries. However, NO2 levels within the SPLEZ peaked during winter, with heating and meteorological factors playing a significant role. Additionally, the findings from the case study of the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated the influence of human activities on the NO2 concentration in both the SPLEZ and the entire metropolitan area. NO2 emissions decreased during the strict lockdown period and steadily increased as activities resumed. Satellite data was compared to surface-level measurements in each case study, resulting in a linear correlation coefficient of 0.72. TROPOMI data was found to closely align with surface-level observations as pollution levels increased, contrasting with better air quality scenarios. Despite certain limitations, it can serve as a valuable tool for providing complementary information to surface-level data, particularly in characterizing changes in pollution distribution patterns. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,320,,Atmos.

Although researchers have supported using MPAs as an ecosystem management tool, scientific research on MPAs in areas other than fisheries and fisheries management is limited. This paper presents a model for designing marine protected areas that protect important components of the ecosystem while minimizing economic impacts on local communities. This model combines conservation principles derived specifically for the marine environment with economic impact assessment. This integrated model allows for consideration of both fishery and non-fishery resources and activities such as shipping and recreational boating. An illustration of the model is presented that estimates the total economic impacts on Massachusetts' coastal counties of restricting fishing and shipping at certain sites in an area in the southern Gulf of Maine. The results suggest that the economic impacts on the region would differ according to the site in which shipping and fishing were restricted. Restricting activities in certain sites may have considerable impacts on local communities. The use of the model for evaluating and comparing potential MPA sites is illustrated through an evaluation of three different policy scenarios. The scenarios demonstrate how the model could be used to achieve different goals for managing resources in the region: protecting important components of the ecosystem, minimizing economic impacts on the local region, or a combination of the two. © 2004 Elsevier Ltd.

Nevertheless, knowledge of population structure is critical for conservation at the appropriate scale. Some types of genetic information can reveal structural and phylogenetic patterns necessary to the management process. Under conservation of law and common practice, management is aimed at the species and population levels. As such, the most important types of genetic data are aimed at defining the conservation unit: The species, evolutionarily significant units (ESUs), or demographically independent populations (DIPs). The genetic toolbox is constantly expanding as technology and analytical methods allow us to examine more of the genome and to investigate how evolution and demographic processes have shaped it. Knowledge of these patterns and processes, in turn, is critical for improved management in the face of growing and changing threats. © 2018 Elsevier Inc.

One key conservation leverage tool is the establishment of marine protected areas, which can be derived by inspecting where marine sentinel species forage in their most sensitive life cycle phase (reproduction). Depending on their biological and legislative framework, important conservation areas (hereafter, ICAs) can correspond to Important Bird and biodiversity Areas, Key Biodiversity Areas, Marine Protected Areas, etc. Statistical methods allow for standardized assessment of ICAs based on GPS tracking data. However, several biological processes should be accounted for to provide reliable ICAs. In colonial seabirds and sea mammals, individuals breeding in different parts of a colony often spatially segregate while foraging at sea. Besides, environmental conditions may affect the location of foraging areas across years. To what extent relying on data collected in only one part of a colony or in a single breeding season may affect the location and size of ICAs remains unexplored. Here we aimed at 1) highlighting intra-colony and inter-annual heterogeneity of exploited marine areas during reproduction in a colonial seabird, the Scopoli’s shearwaters Calonectris diomedea; and 2) providing guidelines on how to methodologically best account for such spatio-temporal heterogeneity when deriving ICAs. We relied on 397 foraging trips performed by 73 individuals breeding in two distinct areas within the same colony (hereafter, sub-colonies) over 3 years. We showed that areas exploited by shearwaters breeding in two nearby sub-colonies were clearly segregated and differed between years. Relying on only one sub-colony or a single breeding season led to drastically smaller ICAs, biased either east- or west-ward depending on the sub-colony considered. We proposed to account for such heterogeneity by merging the different ICAs obtained for each sub-colony and year, instead of pooling tracking data and deriving a single ICA. Our method led to much larger ICAs, which were less affected by differences in sample sizes across sub-colonies or years, than when ignoring the spatio-temporal heterogeneity. Recently developed standardized statistical procedures and a careful consideration of population spatial structure and temporal heterogeneity will foster robust conservation actions for colonial marine species.

However, lack of knowledge about the specifics of reserve geography and rules can lead to actions that adversely affect marine life (unsanctioned fishing and collecting) or disturb sensitive species within these areas, even when general support for protected areas is high. We assessed public awareness of State Marine Reserves locations and policies on the central California coast. Using surveys in the form of semi-structured interviews and written questionnaires, we asked beach visitors whether they had prior knowledge about State Marine Reserves. We provided half of participants with new knowledge about State Marine Reserves in the form of a verbal, short pre-survey speech. We asked participants to indicate if they were currently standing inside of a State Marine Reserve and assessed their self-reported likelihoods of performing several actions related to environmental etiquette such as following reserve rules. Finally, we tested how provisional new knowledge influences perceptions surrounding the importance of protecting marine habitats and human impacts on them. Overall, 60% of participants had heard of marine reserves, though this varied by participant region of residence. 33% of participants with prior knowledge and 13% of participants with no prior knowledge identified site protection status correctly. Over half of participants self-reported behaviors consistent with reserve rules and environmental etiquette. Survey participants who received new knowledge did not differ from the control group in their ability to correctly identify reserve location or in their perceptions of human impacts. Our results suggest that the information in our short verbal speech was not sufficient for changing perceptions, though over 90% of visitors stated marine protection to was already personally important or very important to them. Beach visitors intend to treat reserves well if they know they are visiting a reserve. However, because less than one third of visitors recognize reserve locations, a disconnect exists between understanding acceptable behavior for protected sites and knowing where to apply this behavior. Finally, we discuss the educational strategies of docent presence and place-based learning opportunities to improve awareness of marine reserves and their locations for local and non-local visitors. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,104-114,,,167,,Ocean Coast.

Nevertheless, many organisms threatened by human impacts also find shelter in unexpected or informally protected places. For coral reef organisms, refuges can be tourist resorts implementing local environment-friendly bottom-up management strategies. We used the coral reef ecosystem as a model to test whether such practices have positive effects on the biodiversity associated with de facto protected areas. Location: North Ari Atoll, Maldives. Methods: We modelled the effects of the environment and three human management regimes (tourist resorts, uninhabited and local community islands) on the abundance and diversity of echinoderms and commercially important fish species, the per cent cover of reef benthic organisms (corals, calcareous coralline algae, turf and macroalgae) and the proportion of coral disease. We used multivariate techniques to assess the differences between reef components among the management regimes. Results: Reefs varied between the management regimes. A positive “resort effect” was found on sessile benthic organisms, with good coral cover and significantly less algae at resort islands. Corals were larger and had fewer diseases in uninhabited islands. Minor “resort effect” was detected on motile species represented by commercial fish and echinoderms. Main conclusions: In countries where natural biodiversity strongly sustains the tourist sector and where local populations rely on natural resources, a balance between tourism development, local extraction practices and biodiversity conservation is necessary. The presence of eco-friendly managed resorts, which practices would need to be certified on the long term, is beneficial to protect certain organisms. House reefs around resorts could therefore provide areas adding to existing marine protected areas, while marine protection efforts in local community islands should focus on improving fishing management. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,1301-1312,,11,23,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,abundance; alga; algae; ALGAL; Anthozoa; anthropogenic effect; Ari Atoll; benthos; biodiversity; bottom-up approach; coastal zone management; conservation management; coral reef; coral reefs; DISEASE; Echinodermata; echinoderms; ecosystem management; environmental management; fish; FISH ASSEMBLAGES; fishery management; fishing; generalized linear mixed-effect models; human impact; IMPLEMENTATION; island; Maldives; MALDIVES; management; MANAGEMENT; marine park; MARINE PROTECTED AREA; NUTRIENT ENRICHMENT; reef fish; refuge; SEVERITY; shelter; SHIFTS; tourism development; tourist destination; tourist resort,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Although they usually involve the displacement of fisheries, their design rarely takes into account the effect of displacing that fishery on the target fish population. We used a spatially explicit population model of Antarctic toothfish in the Ross Sea region to investigate the effects of the endorsed Ross Sea region MPA on the fishery dynamics and the spatial distribution of the toothfish population. Our study indicates that the MPA will likely improve protection of the juvenile population residing on the Antarctic Shelf, while the number of areas with high levels of depletion is unlikely to increase compared to status quo management. Results also suggested a small increase in the catch limit under the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) harvest management rules, but with a slight reduction in catch rates.

Efforts to develop an MPA in Gilbert Bay, Labrador, Canada, began in 1998 to protect the genetically distinct population of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) and its habitat. Population monitoring and research conducted in Gilbert Bay during 26 research trips over 14 years have documented significant population declines. The biomass declined by as much as 83% and research catch rates by 54% since Gilbert Bay became a MPA in 2005. Commercial fishing in adjacent waters was strongly correlated (Pearson correlation r=-0.87, p=0.002), with the declining trend in research catch rates. Tag recaptures from the commercial fishery (n=105) confirmed that fishing removed large adult Gilbert Bay cod that seasonally move outside the MPA. Evidence of the production of strong year classes even at low adult population levels indicate that the Gilbert Bay cod population has the potential to increase rapidly under appropriate adaptive management; thus improving MPA effectiveness. A relatively small change in the timing of commercial fishing in waters adjacent to the MPA would likely produce this result; however, inflexible MPA regulations, and poor co-ordination and agreement among differing fishery management processes and stakeholders has delayed the implementation of such a change. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,20-28,,,49,,Mar.

We consider these design factors for the Laurentian Channel MPA, a large offshore Canadian protected area established to protect against fishing impacts. Specifically, in this study we evaluated (1) whether it is realistic to expect improvements in the MPA for four previously established taxa-specific COs, and (2) whether existing scientific surveys are capable of detecting changes in these CO taxa even if they occurred. Three CO species were sampled in scientific multispecies research vessel trawl surveys (Black Dogfish, Smooth Skate, and Northern Wolffish) and a fourth CO, sea pen taxa, were enumerated using seafloor imagery. Simulations indicate that trawl surveys have very little chance of detecting change in the abundance of the three fish species examined, while seafloor imagery data had higher statistical power for sea pen taxa. Moreover, we show that expecting change related to the removal of fishing is unrealistic due to the fact that the MPA was established in an area of minimal fishing pressure. While positive change is unlikely to be induced by the MPA, or be detected if they occurred, this MPA could provide conservation benefits if COs and monitoring approaches were realigned to match the unique features of this area that represents largely unimpacted sensitive benthic habitats. © 2024 The Authors.

It involves rigorous scrutiny of new plans or projects combined with the use of local regulatory powers to limit detrimental impacts on important wildlife assets. UK law requires the statutory nature conservation adviser to establish conservation objectives for sites, but the management mechanism is effectively voluntary. The 'management scheme' was developed in the latter part of the 1990s and has been in place for more than a decade. This paper describes the lessons learned following a review commissioned to determine the effectiveness of management schemes.Strong local commitment and leadership of management schemes have helped to improve the conservation status of some sites. Elsewhere, the absence of legal provision for a designated leadership structure means that some management schemes may not have performed as effectively as they could have. Weaknesses in the feedback loop between monitoring and assessment of the need for corrective action were also detected. In addition, insecure funding provisions mean that staff turnover can be high and this limits scheme effectiveness, which is dependent upon the maintenance of a sound knowledge base.The strengths of well-led and proactive management approaches could be fostered elsewhere provided relevant authorities and their staff are empowered to do so. The lessons arising from this approach are relevant to management initiatives worldwide, even though different legislative frameworks will apply. They emphasise the importance of matching legal provisions with the necessary capacity to make sure that management interventions are implemented and are respected. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,40-51,,,87,,Ocean Coast.

Our findings indicate that there are more users participating in non-consumptive recreation activities and are willing to pay approximately $15 annually to use these WMA lands.

Objectives: Quantify the differential use of habitat that Amazon River dolphins exhibit and identify core areas of activity during seasons of rising waters in the Colombian Amazonas River and five major rivers in the Orinoco basin. Methods: Based on processed satellite images from Landsat 8 (2018–2021), we classified habitat types used by I. geoffrensis as reported in the literature as follows: (1) main river, (2) confluences, (3) tributaries, (4) channels, (5) islands, (6) bays, and (7) lagoons. We combined this dataset with GPS location data obtained from 17 tagged Amazon River dolphins to quantify the proportion of habitat types used. We used kernel density estimate (KDE) analysis to identify both areas used (K95) and core areas (K50) in the habitat types for the satellite-monitored individuals. Results: Satellite tracking of I. geoffrensis individuals reported 16,098 locations classified into seven habitat types. For the analyzed period (rising waters) main habitat types used were as follow: (1) main river (n = 9144, 57%); (2) confluences (n = 932, 6%); (3) tributaries (n = 1423, 9%); (4) channels (n = 1597, 10%); (5) islands (n = 738, 5%); (6) bays (n = 1096, 7%), and (7) lagoons (n = 1168, 7%). Home range size (K95) for the satellite-monitored I. geoffrensis individuals ranged from 6 to 116 km2 (mean = 40 ± 33); and the largest core areas (K50) or core area of activity were recorded in the main river, confluences, channels, bays, lagoons, and tributaries. Conclusions: Our results demonstrated the importance of spatial ecology analysis of Amazon River dolphins for the definition of protected areas, quantifying the use of ecosystems within these areas, and the location of priority areas for the implementation of management plans for the species and habitats. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,2099-2119,,8,37,,Landsc.

Despite their importance, knowledge about these features in the equatorial waters of the planet is still scarce. The aim of this study was to assess these features in the Tropical Southwestern Atlantic (northeastern Brazil). Two oceanographic cruises were carried out (2010) on the continental shelf. The collections were performed at 54 stations distributed in three coast parallel profiles covering a wide geographical area (20,100km2). A total of 3723 fish larvae and 3829 fish eggs were sampled. Larval identification resulted in 15 taxa belonging to 13 families. Eggs of family Engraulidae were the most abundant and represented 40.8% of the total eggs. The largest concentration of fish larvae and eggs was found on the outer shelf, because of the mixture of coastal and oceanic species. On the continental shelf, the abundance of fish larvae was higher near the marine protected area, mesophotic reefs and large tropical mangrove ecosystems. The present results provide a baseline assessment of a poorly studied region of the planet along a coast with high turbidity, and sea surface temperatures. Moreover, the results highlight the need for rigorous monitoring to detect shifts in diversity and abundance of ichthyoplankton on a continental shelf with a large number of rich tropical ecosystems. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.",,27-33,,,14,,Reg.

Despite the importance of non-breeding habitat to the persistence of individuals and species, there remains limited information on the habitat requirements of many species during the non-breeding period. We used Global Positioning System tracking devices to determine the non-breeding movements of Great Frigatebirds, Fregata minor, and Lesser Frigatebirds, F. ariel, across much of Southeast Asia. These data were analysed with MaxEnt modelling to identify important habitat features for non-breeding frigatebirds and inform priorities for targeted conservation measures. Models with the greatest predictive performance were influenced strongly by bathymetry. Predicted habitat suitability was greatest in shallow waters. Similarly, warmer waters had greater predicted suitability during the wet season. We also identify 45 roosting sites that form an important component of the habitat used by non-breeding frigatebirds in this region. The existing marine protected area (MPA) network contains only a small proportion of habitat identified as suitable or optimum for non-breeding frigatebirds. This is of particular concern given that some parts of the region's marine environment are among the most heavily human-impacted in the world. Our findings can be used to implement spatially-targeted conservation measures such as education campaigns focusing on bycatch reduction and subsidies for bycatch reduction methods (e.g., streamer lines) for fisheries operating in suitable and optimum habitat. They could also inform placement of additional MPAs to maintain habitat integrity in areas we identified as suitable or optimum habitat, particularly when these habitats occur in close proximity to roosting sites. Such approaches will likely provide benefits to frigatebird populations tracked in the present study as well as those dispersing to the study region from other ocean basins. © 2021",,,,,27,,Glob.

The level of protection is key factor influencing the marine biodiversity, where a more enforced protection is expected to drive positive outcomes. In 2008, a large MPAs network (?11,380 km 2) was established in one of off the most populated and industrialized areas in the world (i.e., Săo Paulo State coast, southeast Brazil). Given many goods and services provided by marine ecosystems, this MPA network represents the most challenging marine conservation initiative in Brazil. Harboring? areas with different socio-ecological contexts and management regimes, this MPA network provides a unique opportunity to investigate the effects of cumulative impacts. We contrasted the biomass and size structure of reef fish in three subtropical islands under different levels of enforcement. We analyzed the influence of variables as island size, benthic cover, depth, topographic complexity, wave exposure, and protection level on the biomass of reef fish assemblages. Protection level was the main attribute responsible to explain the high biomass of fish target species and small territorial herbivores. In sites sheltered from the waves, the biomass of groupers was ?1600% higher within enforced area than that from open-access area. Beyond the idea of positive effects of enforcement on reef fish biomass and size, we add evidences that even under multiple stressors, the area-based management is still a strong tool to marine conservation. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,47,,Reg.

We found direct evidence (the presence of post-ovulatory follicles) of a spawning aggregation of cubera snapper (Lutjanus cyanopterus) within the largest multiple-use marine protected area in southeastern Brazil, representing the first in-situ validation of a cubera snapper spawning aggregation in subtropical waters off the southwestern Atlantic.

The histological examination of six ovaries showed spawning-capable individuals and multiple spawning patterns. This cubera snapper spawning aggregation event probably relates to increased temperatures in the summer months, and the complexity of habitats and geomorphological formations in the region. Even though the species has high economic value in the region, targeted by both commercial and recreational fishing, Brazilian legislation imposes capture restrictions that ignore scientific evidence and are limited to the winter months, a season lacking aggregation reports.

It is considered as a less harmful extractive activity in many multiple-use marine protected areas (MPAs)s. However, only a few of these MPAs have been able to successfully combine their nature conservation objectives with those of managing artisanal fisheries in a sustainable manner. In many cases, the artisanal fishing activity and the communities related to it have been barely involved in the management of MPAs, which has led to sometimes tense situations between fishermen and MPA managers. This work takes the example of the future marine protected area ""Jbel Moussa"", located in northern Morocco just off the Strait of Gibraltar, where artisanal fishing is one of the main local activities. A survey was conducted between July and November 2022 and targeted the future stakeholders of the marine protected area. Knowing already the point of view of the artisanal fishermen of Jbel Moussa from previous works, this survey has served to clarify the perspective of the future managers of the protected area, in order to take stock of all that is planned in terms of the general management of the site and artisanal fisheries, but also to determine if there is a real communication between each stakeholder category. After analysis, the results of the survey showed some shortcomings in communication between the different categories of actors interviewed, but also some divergence of opinions between the managers of the future protected area and the artisanal fishermen operating there. However, it was revealed that several projects addressing, in particular, some of the aspects studied in this work, are being carried out at the site and will undoubtedly allow the problems observed to be taken into account for a better future management of the MPA. © 2024 EDP Sciences.

Although the advantages of these methods in comparison to other multivariate or two-way indicator species analyses have been demonstrated, relatively few ecological studies have made use of them. The aim of the present study was to demonstrate the advantages of the indicator species test using a data set generated by traditional fisheries activities at four areas in the Bonifacio Strait Marine Reserve, Corsica, France. ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis and another randomization test were also performed on the same data set. Of the 54 species caught in the fishing nets, the indicator species analyses identified 19 species for which the indicator value was significant for a given area, whereas the a posteriori Tukey test for ANOVA detected only 12 species for which the mass capture per unit effort was significantly greater for a given area. The efficiency of this new approach within the framework of conservation and marine reserve studies is demonstrated by focusing on three species (Sciaena umbra, Palinurus elephas and Maja verrucosa).",,385-390,,3,29,,Environ.

Protection of the Lesser Spotted Eagle (Aquila pomarina Brehm) and its nesting habitat in Natura 2000 sites is a good example of conservation solutions being directly connected to significant forest management restrictions. In Lithuania, the protection regime for the species in the Natura 2000 sites has been in place since 2004. However, neither the costs to the wood economy or the ecological benefits of the regime, or of alternative protection regimes, have been explored in detail. In this study, we aim to discuss a methodological framework to weigh up alternative regimes to protect the Lesser Spotted Eagle and its nesting habitat in the context of wood economy. We compared two approaches to protect the species and its habitat in three special protection areas (SPAs) designated for the Lesser Spotted Eagle. The current protection regime incorporates two types of measures: 1) for every estimated pair present in SPAs, two 3-5 ha mature forest stands are selected, along with protective zones 100 m wide around those stands. In the set-aside forest stands final felling is completely forbidden and other types of felling are restricted during the summer season. In the protective zones, all types of felling are restricted during the summer season, but permitted in other seasons; 2) For Lesser Spotted Eagle nests located outside the selected set-aside stands, final felling is restricted for a distance of 100 m around the nest throughout the year and other types of felling are also restricted during summer season. The Foundation for the Development of Nature Protection Projects has developed an alternative protection regime for this species in the SPAs. It is proposed to protect the mapped Lesser Spotted Eagle nest sites by: 1) restricting final felling within a 150 m throughout the year and 2) restricting all types of felling within 300 m during the summer season. Forest land and growing stock characteristics were made available for the case study area. Protection costs in terms of wood economy were associated with the average annual income decrease due to felling restrictions. We modelled the volume of growing stock at mature age and estimated the timber capital costs if no final felling is permitted. In the three SPAs, areas with strict forest use limitations according to the current protection regime covered 7.7% of the total area. During an intensive field inventory between 2011 and 2013, 48 nest sites occupied by the Lesser Spotted Eagle were identified, but only five nests were located in set-aside protected stands. The alternative protection regime involved shifting forests with forestry restrictions to relatively younger stands with a lesser area then subject to restrictions on final felling. The costs of the alternative protection regime were 44% lower per the protected Lesser Spotted Eagle pair than in the current regime. In this study, we demonstrated that both economic and ecological objectives would be better met if the Lesser Spotted Eagle protection regime were based on the actual distribution of breeding pairs in the SPAs. Also, we stress the need to involve a scheme of species distribution updates for any protective regime. Finally, we showed some implications that could be important for minimizing the costs and increasing the benefits for the conservation in practise of any forest-dwelling site-tenacious species and its habitat. © 2015, Lietuvos Misku Institutas.

We quantified spatiotemporal variation in fecundity and reproductive potential of female oysters (Crassostrea virginica) within a network of no-take oyster broodstock reserves by sampling over 3 y at 3 spatial scales: (1) per capita, (2) per square meter, and (3) per reserve. A total of 2,596 oysters were collected using scuba from six reserves in Pamlico Sound, NC, during 2006 to 2008 and processed in the laboratory for fecundity. Per-capita fecundity ranged from 0-340,500 eggs, and increased exponentially with oyster size, peaking in May of all years. In general, per-capita fecundity was highest at more inland mesohaline reserves, whereas reproductive potential per square meter and reserve reproductive potential were highest at more seaward polyhaline reserves as a result of a combination of relatively high density, and large oyster size and reserve areas. All 3 reproductive metrics increased in general over time. These results suggest that inland broodstock reserves should be prioritized for stock enhancement/seeding- and more seaward reserves for reserve expansion-and highlight the need to consider spatiotemporal variation and the scale at which a key demographic rate (fecundity and reproductive potential) is expressed when assessing the efficacy and conservation/restoration targets of marine reserves.

Based on this experience, a two-fold analysis of multiple case studies has been developed, considering both the local and the European scale of regulations and governance chains. The results show that the MPA Contract is an effective tool to improve the governance of European MPAs and thus tackle the local responses to EU and national protection policies through a process of vertical and horizontal subsidiarity. The need for an interinstitutional dialogue to address the establishment of effective environmental governance and the enforcement of regulations affecting marine areas has been highlighted. © 2023 by the authors.",,,,10,15,,Sustainability,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI,,,,advocacy; biodiversity; collaborative governance; EU advocacy; Europe; governance approach; international cooperation; marine environment; marine park; MPA Contract,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, many protected areas do not have an inventory of geological sites. In view of this fact, this study aims to discuss the inventory of geological sites (including geomorphological, hydrological, petrological, sedimentological, and structural sites) and analyse, through a case study, how geodiversity is described in an existing management plan, prepared before IUCN included geoconservation in the Manual for the Management of Protected Areas. This study was conducted in the Itatiaia National Park, which has outstanding geomorphological and other geological features. To ensure appropriate assessment of geological sites, we carried out an inventory of geological sites and then we analysed how the management plan addressed geodiversity. The inventory includes 17 geosites (distributed in six geological frameworks), seven geodiversity sites and three viewpoints. We concluded that although geodiversity is mentioned in the plan, the inventory of geological sites would facilitate and support the exploration of management possibilities that range from conservation to education. Therefore, we recommend the inclusion of the inventoried sites in the management plan of protected areas because it is a valuable tool for the proper conservation and management of geoheritage. © 2022 Elsevier B.V.",,252-272,,2,10,,Int.

Here, we quantify whether and how identifying conservation priority areas within coral reef ecosystems differs when biodiversity information is collected via eDNA analyses or traditional visual census records. We focus on 147 coral reefs in Indonesia’s hyper-diverse Wallacea region and show large discrepancies in the allocation and spatial design of conservation priority areas when coral reef species were surveyed with underwater visual techniques (fishes, corals, and algae) or eDNA metabarcoding (eukaryotes and metazoans). Specifically, incidental protection occurred for 55% of eDNA species when targets were set for species detected by visual surveys and 71% vice versa. This finding is supported by generally low overlap in detection between visual census and eDNA methods at species level, with more overlap at higher taxonomic ranks. Incomplete taxonomic reference databases for the highly diverse Wallacea reefs, and the complementary detection of species by the two methods, underscore the current need to combine different biodiversity data sources to maximize species representation in conservation planning.

Two conceptually different approaches to incorporate dispersal connectivity into spatial planning of these networks exist, and it is an open question as to when either is most appropriate. Candidate reserve sites can be selected individually based on local properties of connectivity or on a spatial dependency-based approach of selecting clusters of strongly connected habitat patches. The first acts on individual sites, whereas the second acts on linked pairs of sites. We used a combination of larval dispersal simulations representing different seascapes and case studies of biophysical larval dispersal models in the Coral Triangle region and the province of Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia, to compare the performance of these 2 methods in the spatial planning software Marxan. We explored the reserve design performance implications of different dispersal distances and patterns based on the equilibrium settlement of larvae in protected and unprotected areas. We further assessed different assumptions about metapopulation contributions from unprotected areas, including the case of 100% depletion and more moderate scenarios. The spatial dependency method was suitable when dispersal was limited, a high proportion of the area of interest was substantially degraded, or the target amount of habitat protected was low. Conversely, when subpopulations were well connected, the 100% depletion was relaxed, or more habitat was protected, protecting individual sites with high scores in metrics of connectivity was a better strategy. Spatial dependency methods generally produced more spatially clustered solutions with more benefits inside than outside reserves compared with site-based methods. Therefore, spatial dependency methods potentially provide better results for ecological persistence objectives over enhancing fisheries objectives, and vice versa. Different spatial prioritization methods of using connectivity are appropriate for different contexts, depending on dispersal characteristics, unprotected area contributions, habitat protection targets, and specific management objectives.

In the last century, deep socio-economic changes have led to an abandonment of traditional uses, to a general decline of the domestic herbivory and to a misuse of burning practices. This study aims to quantify how the decoupling of burning and grazing regimes affects in the long-term the structure, diversity and dynamics of high-mountain, shrub-encroached grasslands. In spring 2012, four treatments (burned-grazed, burned-ungrazed, unburned-grazed and unburned-ungrazed) were set up at three sites in the Special Area of Conservation Roncesvalles-Selva de Irati, in southwest Pyrenees. During seven years, we monitored floristic composition and the height of the native tall-grass Brachypodium rupestre in four plots at each site. In the burned plots, we surveyed the resprout of the dominant shrub Ulex gallii and the dynamics of recovering of the herbaceous vegetation. Plant communities evolved differently in grazed and ungrazed plots. Extensive grazing, despite being lower than in previous decades, maintained plant diversity and limited shrub encroachment. The total absence of grazing fostered the encroachment of U. gallii at two sites and the expansion of B. rupestre at the other site. When B. rupestre cover was >60%, the encroachment of U. gallii was reduced. This research highlights the competition that occurs between shrubs and tall-grasses in the absence of grazing, and the modulating effect exerted by the burnings and the site-specific features. Understanding local plant dynamics is the first step to design the most appropriate practices that help to preserve diversity at the landscape and the community level in high-mountain grasslands of south Europe. © 2021 The Authors",,,,,790,,Sci.

This can result in altered tree morphology, with trees exhibiting stunted growth, multiple stems or unusual branching patterns in response to repeated damage from browsing. The objectives of this research were to (i) model the vegetation structure allometries, (ii) assess the impact of African savannah elephant (Loxodonta africana) herbivory on the vegetation structure and (iii) assess tree cover change and vegetation performance over time in Mana Pools National Park in Zimbabwe. We established 26 plots of 30 × 30 m size. Selection of sampling plots was done following several steps. First, a fish net grid with 30 × 30 m polygons was created and projected on the polygon of Mana Pools National Park. The polygons for exclusion zones were then clipped from the fish net grid using the clip tool in ArcGIS Pro 3.0. Then, selection of sampling plots was done initially by stratified random sampling using the Sampling Design Tool add in for ArcGIS Pro 3.0. Landsat images for the years 2003, 2013 and 2023 were used to assess land use land cover (LULC) time series and to calculate Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index (SAVI) for the period. A generalised linear model (GLM) was used to analyse tree allometries. Further statistical investigations were performed using Bayesian piecewise regression (BPR) and Bayesian regression modelling (BRM). Basal area, number of stems, height, long canopy, diameter and basal circumference were all significantly different (p < 0.05) across all sampled plots. The change in growing conditions occurring as a tree grows beyond the reach of the African savannah elephant browsing indicates a natural system breakpoint. The best-fitting models were a simple linear model and a two breakpoint model for the plant population exposed to elephant herbivory. LULC, NDVI and SAVI confirm evidence of high tree regeneration over 2 decades. Understanding the dynamics in vegetation and LULC changes is critical for effective conservation and management of the habitats for African savannah elephants, as well as for maintaining the health and resilience of forest ecosystems. © 2024 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,,,4,62,,Afr.

We analyzed the data of 744 Palinurus elephas specimens tagged, relocated inside 12 FPAs, established in the seas surrounding Sardinia (central-western Mediterranean), and then recaptured. The overall aims were to characterize the individuals' movements after the relocation and to discuss strengths and weaknesses of the current FPAs' design. Almost 80% of tagged individuals travelled progressively increasing distances, as a function of the release distance, up to a maximum value of 11,500 m. Then, for larger release distances, individuals' mobility appeared reduced and more chaotic. A similar trend was found analyzing the distances travelled with respect to the FPAs with the highest number of recaptured individuals and to the size. These results allow to establish a threshold limit of the release distance, to take into account when designing FPAs, as a useful tool to keep a portion of the individuals into FPAs’ borders, in order to both preserve the species and guarantee a spillover of individuals in the commercial areas. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,182,,Mar.

The State Park of Costa do Sol (SPCSol) is the largest conservation unit with integral protection in the region and was developed in a discontinuous model, being formed by 43 distinct areas grouped in four large nuclei: Massambaba, Atalaia-Dama Branca, Pau-Brasil and Sapiatiba. Given the fragmented aspect of the SPCSol, the goal of the present study was to evaluate, through landscape metrics, the effectiveness of the SPCSol as a protective tool for the CPDCF's biodiversity, accounting its 43 fragments as eventual unique remnants of natural areas in the region. Results showed that the SPCSol's fragments are under strong pressure from anthropic activities in its direct vicinity, being in general highly susceptive to edge effects. The connectivity between fragments is low, with the Massambaba nucleus presenting the best values of habitat availability, varying between 0.18 and 0.57 in an index that ranges from 0 to 1. None of the other fragments presented values above 0.10.

Combining an analysis of field survey data, literature review, and expert assessment by a multidisciplinary working group, we examined the degree to which Caribbean coastal habitats provide useful planning information on 4 conservation measures: species richness, the ecological functions of fish species, ecosystem processes, and ecosystem services. Approximately one-quarter to one-third of benthic invertebrate species and fish species (disaggregated by life phase; hereafter fish species) occurred in a single habitat, and Montastraea-dominated forereefs consistently had the highest richness of all species, processes, and services. All 11 habitats were needed to represent all 277 fish species in the seascape, although reducing the conservation target to 95% of species approximately halved the number of habitats required to ensure representation. Species accumulation indices (SAIs) were used to compare the efficacy of surrogates and revealed that fish species were a more appropriate surrogate of benthic species (SAI = 71%) than benthic species were for fishes (SAI = 42%). Species of reef fishes were also distributed more widely across the seascape than invertebrates and therefore their use as a surrogate simultaneously included mangroves, sea grass, and coral reef habitats. Functional classes of fishes served as effective surrogates of fish and benthic species which, given their ease to survey, makes them a particularly useful measure for conservation planning. Ecosystem processes and services exhibited great redundancy among habitats and were ineffective as surrogates of species. Therefore, processes and services in this case were generally unsuitable for a complementarity-based approach to reserve design. In contrast, the representation of species or functional classes ensured inclusion of all processes and services in the reserve network. © 2008 Society for Conservation Biology.",,941-951,,4,22,,Conserv.

These limitations obstruct interpretation and integration of maps for coral reef science and management, particularly at regional (international) scales where standardization is urgently required. This paper advocates an objective, systematic approach to habitat classification which couples coastal geomorphology and benthic cover. Benthic classes are derived and described objectively using agglomerative hierarchical classification of field data and Similarity Percentage analysis of resulting clusters. The scheme has a hierarchical structure to accommodate various user requirements, variable availability of data, and the spatial scales of most remote sensing methods. We illustrate our approach with a scheme based on extensive field data from the Turks and Caicos Islands and Belize. While the scheme will not represent all habitats of the Caribbean, it provides a useful basis for a regional classification and illustrates the systematic approach. Standardized regional maps of coastal habitats will help development of predictive models of coral metapopulation dynamics, aid the identification of larval source and sink areas, and facilitate strategic transboundary planning of protected areas to maximize species, habitat, and ecosystem conservation. Habitats might also be interpreted to reflect ecosystem processes such as productivity and trophic guild structure, thereby allowing the ecosystem function to be examined at larger scales.",,155-163,,2,88,,Biol.

However, it has received much criticism, particularly about the inadequacy of reporting by Contracting Parties. Aim: We previously developed a rapid assessment tool called the Rapid Ramsar Management Effectiveness Evaluation Tool (Rapid R-MEET) to alleviate the reporting burden and emphasise the Convention's priorities. Methods: In this paper, we pilot this tool in the Caroni Swamp Ramsar Site in Trinidad. We also conduct a policy-gap analysis to understand the context in which management decisions are being made. Key results: We found serious gaps in management capacity and a complex institutional context in which wetland decision-making takes place that undermine the successful implementation of the Ramsar Convention in the twin island nation. Conclusions: These limitations have created a system of Ramsar Sites with minimal monitoring, research, and enforcement to achieve the Convention's goals, particularly crippling reporting on ecological character. Implications: Better coordination among agencies involved in wetland management, as well as more robust resourcing for management, is needed to achieve wetland conservation goals at the national and site levels. We also found that the Rapid R-MEET can be completed efficiently and effectively by external researchers, providing an avenue to increase collaboration, support under-resourced management teams, and improve reporting to the Convention.  © 2023 Journal of Primary Health Care.

We review how ecological guidelines for improving marine reserve design can be adapted based on an area’s unique evolutionary, oceanic, and ecological characteristics in the Gulf of California, Mexico. We provide ecological guidelines to maximize benefits for fisheries management, biodiversity conservation and climate change adaptation. These guidelines include: representing 30% of each major habitat (and multiple examples of each) in marine reserves within each of three biogeographic subregions; protecting critical areas in the life cycle of focal species (spawning and nursery areas) and sites with unique biodiversity; and establishing reserves in areas where local threats can be managed effectively. Given that strong, asymmetric oceanic currents reverse direction twice a year, to maximize connectivity on an ecological time scale, reserves should be spaced less than 50–200 km apart depending on the planktonic larval duration of target species; and reserves should be located upstream of fishing sites, taking the reproductive timing of focal species in consideration. Reserves should be established for the long term, preferably permanently, since full recovery of all fisheries species is likely to take > 25 years. Reserve size should be based on movement patterns of focal species, although marine reserves > 10 km long are likely to protect ~ 80% of fish species. Since climate change will affect species’ geographic range, larval duration, growth, reproduction, abundance, and distribution of key recruitment habitats, these guidelines may require further modifications to maintain ecosystem function in the future. © 2018, The Author(s).",,749-776,,4,28,,Rev.

However, contrasting estimates of connectivity across disciplines is a challenging task and few empirical studies have focused on population dynamics within fish species with a complex life history. We used a collaborative approach merging citizen science, population genetics, oceanographic modeling, and interviews to collect empirical connectivity data of individual fish, fishing sites, and fishers. We integrated the data within a multilevel social-ecological network framework describing the interactions between two communities of small-scale fishers (Bahia Kino and Puerto Libertad, Sonora, Mexico) targeting leopard grouper (Mycteroperca rosacea). We identified two types of social-ecological links, including the use of specific fishing sites by individual fishers and the harvest of individual fish by individual fishers. Despite their fishing zones not overlapping, the ecological links between two communities located ~150 km apart were consistent and reciprocal where fishing grounds from each community acted as a source of fish to the other during the larval or juvenile/adult stages, respectively. As a result, fishers from the two communities frequently captured fish that were second-degree relatives. In contrast, the probability of social ties among fishers changed significantly depending on the type of connection and was considerably low for leadership and kinship although some communication was present. Our study highlighted how local actions (e.g., recovery from marine reserves or overfishing) are likely to impact the neighboring community as much as locally. The geographic scale and strength of key ecological process supporting fish stocks through the fish life cycle seem to be larger than those of social connections among fishers. Fishers and managers could benefit from a broader regional perspective that strengthens connections between communities about shared goals and activities. We examine some insights learned on the constraints of connectivity given different attributes of each ecological and social component and methodological challenges identified. We also discuss ways to improve collaborative management between the two communities. © 2022 by the author(s).",,,,1,27,,Ecol.

We aimed to model ecological niches of S. birrea subspecies in Tanzania under the current and future climates. Ecological niches under the current climate were modelled by using ecological niche models in MaxEnt using climatic, edaphic, and topographical variables, and subspecies occurrence data. The Hadley Climate Center and National Center for Atmospheric Research’s Earth System Models were used to predict ecological niches under the medium and high greenhouse gases emission scenarios for the years 2050 and 2080. Areas under the curves (AUCs) were used to assess the accuracy of the models. The results show that the models were robust, with AUCs of 0.85–0.95. Annual and seasonal precipitation, elevation, and soil cation exchange capacity are the key environmental factors that define the ecological niches of the S. birrea subspecies. Ecological niches of subsp. caffra, multifoliata, and birrea are currently found in 30, 22, and 21 regions, and occupy 184 814 km2, 139 918 km2, and 28 446 km2 of Tanzania’s land area respectively, which will contract by 0.4–44% due to climate change.

This poses challenges in identifying processes shaping this variability and sets constraints to the conservation management of sea turtles and their use as biomonitoring tools for environmental pollutants. We aimed to increase understanding of the spatial variation in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), organochlorine pesticide (OCP) and polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) compounds among nesting beaches. We link the spatial variation to turtle migration patterns and the persistence of these pollutants. Specifically, using gas chromatography, we confirmed maternal transfer of a large number of compounds (n = 68 out of 69) among 104 eggs collected from 21 nests across three nesting beaches within the Yucatán Peninsula, one of the world's most important rookeries for hawksbill turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata). High variation in PAH profiles was observed among beaches, using multivariate correspondence analysis and univariate Peto-Prentice tests, reflecting local acquisition during recent migration movements. Diagnostic PAH ratios reflected petrogenic origins in Celestún, the beach closest to petroleum industries in the Gulf of Mexico. By contrast, pollution profiles of OCPs and PCBs showed high similarity among beaches, reflecting the long-term accumulation of these pollutants at regional scales. Therefore, spatial planning of protected areas and the use of turtle eggs in biomonitoring needs to account for the spatial variation in pollution profiles among nesting beaches. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,43-54,,,135,,Mar.

The fishing sector, in the Alboran Sea, is economically and culturally one of the most important and relies on overexploited target species such as European hake (Merlucius merlucius). Here we identified and quantified the impact of human pressures on the capacity of marine habitats to support the provision of food as an important ecosystem service. We modelled the spatial distribution of nursery areas of European hake in the Alboran Sea, using General Additive Models (GAM) and overlaid those with European Nature Information System (EUNIS) habitats. A sensitivity analysis of hake nursery areas to cumulative human impacts identified the Bay of Malaga as the most sensitive area with trawling frequencies up to 60 times higher than the habitats recovery time. Further, we identified an increased conflict potential among human activities such as trawling and extraction with the presence of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), which provide MPAs a high vulnerability similar to that found in unprotected areas. Future scenarios considering the increase of renewable energy and alternative food production show conflicts between aquaculture and MPAs as well as offshore wind farms and offshore shipping. Hence, our results show strong arguments for an integrated spatial management approach, including benthic trawling. We also suggest restricting trawling activities inside MPAs to safeguard the habitats capacity to support ecosystem services. Our spatially explicit assessment framework is transparent and transferable to other Mediterranean regions. Thus, it can function as a model on how to incorporate cumulative effect assessments in marine spatial planning processes. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,190-207,,,,,Mar. Environ.

The regions identified are consistent and correspond to hydrological mesoscale and macroscale structures well characterized from physical and biological viewpoints. Although it is difficult to determine the boundaries of a fluid continuously moving, the procedure used recognizes the most frequent patterns and can be used to geographically reference the most likely position of the limit among the regions. Once established the regions, the connectivity among them is addressed by means of geostrophic currents derived from altimetry data. The main geostrophic circulation pattern depict an elevated connectivity in the area that might facilitate the conservation and recovery of species, but also imply a higher vulnerability to negative external forces and highlight the need of models, marine spatial planning, and coastal management approaches that include the pelagic ecosystem and connectivity of the seas. Furthermore, the results confirm that the cooperation between public authorities at different levels (local, regional, state) as well as among coastal countries is essential for Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) and prevention of potential risk derived from upcoming marine activities in the framework of the 2020 Agenda and Blue Growth Strategy (. European Commission, 2012). The recently approved Directive for Marine Spatial Planning and Integrated Coastal Zone Management (.

Because of its diet, Bolbometopon may serve as a keystone species on Indo-Pacific coral reefs, yet comprehensive descriptions of its reproductive ecology do not exist. We used a variety of underwater visual census (UVC) methods to study an intact population of Bolbometopon at Wake Atoll, a remote and protected coral atoll in the west Pacific. Key observations include spawning activities in the morning around the full and last quarter moon, with possible spawning extending to the new moon. We observed peaks in aggregation size just prior to and following the full and last quarter moon, respectively, and observed a distinct break in spawning at the site that persisted for four days; individuals returned to the aggregation site one day prior to the last quarter moon and resumed spawning the following day. The mating system was lek-based, characterized by early male arrival at the spawning site followed by vigorous defense (including head-butting between large males) of small territories. These territories were apparently used to attract females that arrived later in large schools, causing substantial changes in the sex ratio on the aggregation site at any given time during the morning spawning period. Aggression between males and courtship of females led to pair spawning within the upper water column. Mating interference was not witnessed but we noted instances suggesting that sperm competition might occur. Densities of Bolbometopon on the aggregation site averaged 10.07(±3.24 SE) fish per hectare (ha) with maximum densities of 51.5 fish per ha. By comparing our observations to the results of biennial surveys conducted by theNational Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Coral Reef Ecosystem Division (CRED), we confirmed spatial consistency of the aggregation across years as well as a temporal break in spawning activity and aggregation that occurred during the lunar phase. We estimated the area encompassed by the spawning aggregation to be 0.72 ha, suggesting that spawning site closures and temporal closures centered around the full to the new moon might form one component of a management and conservation plan for this species. Our study of the mating system and spawning aggregation behavior of Bolbometopon fromthe protected, relatively pristine population atWake Atoll provides crucial baselines of population density, sex ratio composition, and productivity of a spawning aggregation site froman oceanic atoll. Such information is key for conservation efforts and provides a basic platformfor the design of marine protected areas for this threatened iconic coral reef fish, as well as for species with similar ecological and life history characteristics. © 2014 Muńoz et al.",,,,2,2014,,PeerJ,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: PeerJ Inc.,,,,adult; Alternative reproductive behavior; Article; Atoll; Bolbometopon muricatum; CHEILINUS-UNDULATUS; Conservation; CORAL-REEF; female; global positioning system; HUMPHEAD WRASSE; Indo-Pacific; Lek; male; marine environment; marine species; mating system; Mating system; MATING SYSTEMS; MOVEMENT PATTERNS; MPA; nonhuman; PACIFIC ISLANDS; Perciformes; population density; population productivity; reproductive behavior; Scaridae; Scarinae; sex ratio; SEXUAL SELECTION; Site fidelity; SOCIAL-ORGANIZATION; SOLOMON-ISLANDS; spatial analysis; spawning aggregation behavior; THALASSOMA-BIFASCIATUM; Threatened species; videorecording,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Understanding soundscapes can offer unique insights into the ocean status providing important information and revealing different sounds and their sources. Fishes can be prominent soundscape contributors, making passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) a potential tool to detect the presence of vocal fish species and to monitor changes in biodiversity. The major goal of this research was to provide a first reference of the marine soundscapes of the Madeira Archipelago focusing on fish sounds, as a basis for a long-term PAM program. Based on the literature, 102 potentially vocal and 35 vocal fish species were identified. Additionally 43 putative fish sound types were detected in audio recordings from two marine protected areas (MPAs) in the Archipelago: the Garajau MPA and the Desertas MPA. The Garajau MPA exhibited higher fish vocal activity, a greater variety of putative fish sound types and higher fish sound diversity. Lower abundance of sounds was found at night at both MPAs. Acoustic activity revealed a clear distinction between diurnal and nocturnal fish groups and demonstrated daily patterns of fish sound activity, suggesting temporal and spectral partitioning of the acoustic space. Pomacentridae species were proposed as candidates for some of the dominant sound types detected during the day, while scorpionfishes (Scorpaena spp.) were proposed as sources for some of the dominant nocturnal fish sounds. This study provides an important baseline about this community acoustic behaviour and is a valuable steppingstone for future non-invasive and cost-effective monitoring programs in Madeira. © 2024",,,,,199,,Mar.

It has a long history of study dating back to the start of the nineteenth century. The identified threats to geoconservation are coastal erosion, coastal protection schemes aimed at preventing erosion and fossil collecting. Of these, however, erosion and collecting can also be seen as opportunities. Geology has influenced tourism since the eighteenth century which subsequently promoted both interpretation and conservation. Collecting of geological specimens for museum collections is documented as early as 1825. Site-based conservation began in 1951 with the notification of geological Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) and Regionally Important Geological/geomorphological Sites (RIGS) have been notified since the mid 1990s. There has been a voluntary set of guidelines for fossil collecting and more recently the preparation of a Local Geodiversity Action Plan (LGAP) brought together diverse groups and individuals to begin developing a strategic approach to interpreting and conserving the island's geological heritage. The main outcome of the LGAP process has been to develop a partnership with a view to applying for membership of the European Geoparks Network. © The Geological Society of London 2008.",,173-179,,,300,,Geol.

By combining detections across multiple surveys, or using informative priors in Bayesian model fitting, researchers can improve parameter estimation from sparse capture–recapture data. Using a spatial mark–resight model that incorporates site-level heterogeneity in the spatial scale parameter via a hierarchical process and prior information, we estimated the density of a threatened carnivore (fosa, Cryptoprocta ferox) from multiple sparse datasets collected during extensive camera trapping surveys in northeastern Madagascar (2008–2015). Our objectives were to estimate density for six sites, examine the response of fosa density and movement to habitat degradation, monitor annual density trends across 7 years at two sites, and estimate fosa abundance in the Makira–Masoala protected area complex. We obtained a mean of 16.1 (se = 0.52; range = 2–49) fosa detections and three observers identified a mean of 3.62 (se = 0.09; range = 1–8) marked individuals per survey.

Density estimates at resurveyed sites suggested annual variability in density, with estimates trending lower during the final surveys [e.g. D = 0.39 (0.14–1.11) versus 0.08 (0.05–0.31) individuals per km                             2                             ]. We estimated fosa abundance across the Makira–Masoala region to be 1061 (95% HPDI: 596–1780) adult individuals. On the basis of our estimate and the size of the region, we believe Makira–Masoala harbors a significant portion of the global fosa population. The conservation and management of rare species is commonly limited due to lack of population estimates. By combining detections across surveys, we overcame estimation issues and obtained valuable information on a threatened carnivore, allowing us to better assess its status and prioritize conservation actions. We advocate for practical use of sparse datasets for such data-deficient species.                          © 2018 The Zoological Society of London",,496-504,,6,21,,Anim.

This article presents results from a mixed methods study that focuses on how and why religious identity, a prominent aspect of Ghanaian culture, is related to perceptions of the performance of several Community Resource Management Areas (CREMAs). CREMAs are a form of Ghanaian protected area that emphasizes community participation and a range of socio-economic and ecological objectives. Using importance-satisfaction analysis, large-scale survey results show that respondents that identify as Christians consistently assign greater importance to CREMA outcomes than do those that identify with Traditional religions. Education and whether respondents were native to an area (both of which were correlated with religious identity) were also systematically related to perceptions of CREMA importance, with those that are educated and non-native to an area tending to assign higher importance to CREMA outcomes. Follow up focus group participants from the Avu Lagoon CREMA suggest that the patterns result from differing ‘openness’ to new ideas, relative dependence on natural resources, acceptance of Traditional practices associated with conservation, and a sense, for some, that ecological conditions are divinely ordained. Christianity, education and non-nativity are associated with much larger performance gaps, particularly with respect to socio-economic impacts. The article concludes with a discussion of the implications for conservation interventions and the use of perceptions in assessing protected area performance. © 2018 Murray, Agyare.

Here we investigate the extent to which protected areas cover and ameliorate loss of tidal flats in East Asia, the key staging habitat for threatened and declining shorebirds migrating through the East Asian–Australasian Flyway. We discover rapid losses of the tidal flat ecosystem both inside (?0.42 % year?1) and outside (?0.89 % year?1) protected areas. In China, tidal flats are well represented within protected areas (22.9 % of current tidal flats occur within protected areas), but habitat loss continued despite protection (?0.55 % year?1 inside, ?0.97 % year?1 outside). By contrast, in South Korea, where 12.1 % of remaining tidal flat is in protected areas, the rate of habitat loss outside protected areas was the highest in our study region (?1.83 % year?1), yet inside protected areas there was tidal flat aggradation (+1.13 % year?1), indicating either that protected area placement is biased away from vulnerable habitats, or protected areas are highly effective in South Korea. Tidal flats across our study area were lost most rapidly in internationally important sites for migratory shorebirds (?1.66 % year?1), suggesting that transformative land use change of coastal areas is occurring disproportionately in regions that are important for migratory birds. We urge (1) improved management of existing protected areas in East Asia, particularly in China, (2) targeted designation of new protected areas in sites crucial for supporting migratory birds and (3) integrated decision-making that simultaneously plans for coastal development and coastal conservation. © 2015, Dt.

Initial monitoring results show more and bigger fish, especially in older MPAs where the benefits of limiting fishing have had longer to accrue. Today, California state agencies increasingly acknowledge and contemplate MPA protections in their permitting decisions, as regional and statewide outreach and education efforts enhance public awareness, social capital and stewardship. While enforcement remains challenging in a marine region as large and populous as California, the state has taken important steps to promote compliance with new MPA regulations and—with the support of the state legislature—has strengthened laws to address poaching.

Initial AFS analyses of marine stocks at risk in North America show at least four primary geographic ""hot spots"" with stocks at risk-the Florida Keys; the Indian River Lagoon area of Florida; Puget Sound, Washington and adjacent Canadian waters; and the Gulf of California. Further AFS analyses show that certain groups of fishes are particularly vulnerable because they have slow growth and late maturity. Severe population declines have been documented for several snappers and groupers (Lutjanidae, Serranidae) in the Atlantic and the Gulf of California, several rockfishes (Sebastinae) in the Pacific, and some sharks (Selachei), skates (Rajidae), and sawfishes (Pristidae). Regulatory agencies should be apprised that these groups are extraordinarily vulnerable, and priority management should be given to these species. The greatest threat to many long-lived marine species may be bycatch (including regulatory discard) in fisheries targeting other, often more-productive species. Regulatory agencies must monitor bycatch of long-lived species and move to implement conservation actions if population declines are recorded. The most effective management strategy for some species taken as bycatch and for targeted species such as deeper-water groupers and Pacific rockfishes, may be establishment of large, protected marine reserves to supplement traditional management practices outside of the protected areas. The AFS supports the development, use, and evaluation of large marine reserves or Marine Protected Areas to protect and rebuild vulnerable populations. These reserves must have clearly defined goals, include a wide variety of environmental conditions, be of sufficient number to protect marine ecosystems within each region, allow adaptive management, and be large enough to be self-sustaining. The AFS encourages its members to become involved by providing technical information needed for protection of at-risk marine stocks to international, federal, state, and provincial policy makers, so decisions are made on a scientific, rather than emotional or political, basis.",,06-Aug,,3,25,,Fisheries,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Taylor and Francis Inc.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The Namibian Community-Based Natural Resources Management programme adopted in 1996 aims to devolve wildlife conservation practices and to benefit local people inhabiting communal areas. The programme is experiencing challenges, but has achieved some success in encouraging the coexistence of wildlife and rural communities on communal land. Because the programme is built upon humanwildlife coexistence, however, human-lion conflict is also present. This has been a pressing concern, particularly regarding people's willingness to coexist with dangerous animals such as lions. From a wildlife conservation perspective, a lack of monitoring of human settlement and livestock movement into conservancy areas zoned for wildlife is a concern. This chapter discusses current research from remote sensing of lion and goat movement using satellite-Global Positioning System collars, focusing on understanding goat movement ecology within designated wildlife areas. Information collected on goat movements within wildlife areas will be used to better manage the shared landscape in the perceived ""corridor"" between Etosha National Park and the Skeleton Coast National Park. The research shared here thus focuses on the ""lion-goat space"", contributing to evidence-based goat spatial habitat use in communal area conservancies to ensure appropriate deployments of human-lion conflict mitigation measures. © 2024 Uakendisa Muzuma, CC BY-NC 4.0.

The Akanda National Park (ANP) in Gabon, almost exclusively constituted by mangroves, is part of a green belt of protected areas around the capital city of Libreville. The creation of the ANP is considered as an essential tool for the ecosystemic management of fisheries in Mondah Bay, playing nursery function for several exploited fish species. However, this role has never been documented in the mangroves of Gabon. The aim of this study is to describe the spatial and seasonal variability of fish assemblages, to assess ANP mangrove role as a nursery for fish juveniles. Fish sampling was carried out at four different sites in the four hydroclimatic seasons in Gabon using trammel gillnets with different mesh size (10, 27 and 40 mm). Fifty-nine fish species mainly estuarine and marine, first and second level predators were collected whatever the season and the site. The numerically dominant species were Pseudotolithus elongatus, Pellonula leonensis and Parachelon grandisquamis (48% of the total number of individuals), whereas P. elongatus, Chrysichthys nigrodigitatus and Plectorhinchus macrolepis represented the main biomasses (55%). The predominance in the catches of immature individuals of many species of commercial interest and in particular, P. elongatus, P. grandisquamis, C. nigrodigitatus, Eucinostomus melanopterus, Neochelon falcipinnis and Polydactylus quadrifilis, which dominate the community, highlights the importance of Akanda mangrove as a nursery for the juveniles of these species. The results of our study are a first step in understanding the fish communities of a Gabon marine protected area, which can support the decision making management plans, zonation and initiate a monitoring program for the estuarine and marine protected ecosystems. © 2022 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,59,,Reg.

Anthropogenic activities, whether in isolation or combination, all have effects on the natural environment. Each of these effects has a footprint in time and space. Assessing the distribution and intensity of human activities and their effects on marine biodiversity, and all other human uses and users is necessary for effective spatial planning, as well as to harmonise conservation with sustainable development. Assessing and managing combined pressures from human activities can be achieved using risk assessment and risk management processes. There are multiple examples of environmental risk assessments which propose a similar formula. However, standardised approaches to ecological risk assessment in data-limited locations that relate to sand extraction are limited. Also most assessments require a certain level of information to produce meaningful outcomes, that enable subsequent management action to appropriately reflect the identified level of risk. Here we outline an approach to assess the risk to the marine environment of sand extraction activity within the Exclusive Economic Zone and Marine Protected Area of St Helena Island in the Atlantic. The proposed risk assessment tool has supported the development of a sand extraction management strategy on St Helena, and will be used to inform future management plans and policies that allow anthropogenic activities to take place in a way that balances local management, monitoring and enforcement capability, in line with the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Category VI designation. Both the tool and strategy promote sustainable use of resources and protection of the marine environment, which are key objectives stated in the St Helena Marine Management Plan. © Copyright © 2021 Mynott, Lonsdale and Stamford.",,,,,8,,Front.

These stressors on the environment can have consequences for marine organisms, such as our study species, the harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena), which is regarded as a sentinel species and hence has a high conservation priority in the European Union (EU). As EU member states are obliged to monitor the population status, the present study aims to estimate trends in absolute harbor porpoise abundance in the German North Sea based on almost two decades of aerial surveys (2002–2019) using line-transect methodology. Furthermore, we were interested in trends in three Natura2000 Special Areas of Conservation (SACs), which include the harbor porpoise as designated feature. Trends were estimated for each SAC and two seasons (spring and summer) as well as the complete area of the German North Sea. For the trend analysis we applied a Bayesian framework to a series of replicated visual surveys, allowing to propagate the error structure of the original abundance estimates to the final trend estimate and designed to deal with spatio-temporal heterogeneity and other sources of uncertainty. In general, harbor porpoise abundance decreased in northern areas and increased in the south, such as in the SAC Borkum Reef Ground. A particularly strong decline with a high probability (94.9%) was detected in the core area and main reproduction site in summer, the SAC Sylt Outer Reef (?3.79% per year). The overall trend for the German North Sea revealed a decrease in harbor porpoise abundance over the whole study period (?1.79% per year) with high probability (95.1%). The assessment of these trends in abundance based on systematic monitoring should now form the basis for adaptive management, especially in the SAC Sylt Outer Reef, where the underlying causes and drivers for the large decline remain unknown and deserve further investigation, also in a regional North Sea wide context. © Copyright © 2021 Nachtsheim, Viquerat, Ramírez-Martínez, Unger, Siebert and Gilles.",,,,,7,,Front.

Based on the 2018 imagery it was found that forest area had increased by 446 km                             2                              within 10 years (2008-2018) and the annual rate of change was 12%. Area under agriculture had reduced by 128 km                             2                              with an annual (-) rate of change of 2.5%. Area under tea plantation declined by 307 km                             2                              with an annual (-) rate of change of 12% whereas area under human settlements increased by 61 km                             2                              with an annual (-) rate of change of 44%. Hotspots of human-elephant conflicts were identified in an east west direction primarily around protected areas, tea plantations and along major riverine corridors. During informal interactions with farmers, tea estate labors it was revealed that local community members chased and harassed elephants from agriculture fields, human settlements under the influence of alcohol and thus were primary victims of fatal interactions. Our analytical approach can be replicated for other species in sites with similar issues of human-wildlife conflicts. The hotspot maps of conflict risk will help in developing appropriate mitigation strategies such as setting up early warning systems, restoration of wildlife corridors especially along dry river beds, using deterrents and barriers for vulnerable. Awareness about alcohol related incidents and basic biology of elephants should be organized regularly involving non-governmental organizations targeting the marginalized farmers and tea estate workers.                          © 2019 Naha et al.

We used resistance surface modeling and circuit theory to evaluate a number of corridors developed at regional and at local scales that aim to improve connectivity for large wildlife in the central part of the Kavango-Zambezi transfrontier conservation area. We used hourly GPS data from 16 collared African elephants (Loxodonta africana), and associated environmental data at used versus available movement paths, to develop a hierarchical Bayesian path selection function model. We used the resulting resistance surface across the study area as an input into circuit theory modeling to assess how well connectivity levels were captured by both types of corridors relative to several alternative scenarios. We found that the majority of regional-scale corridors performed relatively well at capturing elevated levels of connectivity relative to non-corridor comparisons, with 7 of 9 corridors rated as good or better in terms of how they captured electrical current levels (a proxy for connectivity). In contrast, only 14 of 33 smaller-scale, local corridors captured significantly higher levels of connectivity than adjacent non-corridor areas. Our results have practical implications for the design and implementation of wildlife connectivity conservation efforts in the world's largest transfrontier conservation landscape. Modern connectivity science approaches can help evaluate which proposed corridors are likely to function as intended, and which may need further refinement. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,96-103,,,217,,Biol.

In Mexico they are protected by national legislation; however, there are no studies regarding their commercial use or population status. From a conservation perspective they are a threatened fish and from a socio-economic aspect they represent a source of income for many fishing communities. The integration of these two points of view requires, among other things, the recognition that fishers have knowledge and skills that can help implement conservation strategies and management plans for seahorses and their habitats. The objective was to document the knowledge of fishers from Sinaloa about the fishing status and current commercialization of wild populations of H. ingens. For this, semi-structured interviews and participatory observation were carried out with 112 participants in the two main ports of the state of Sinaloa (Mazatlán and Topolobampo) from July to August 2021. The data obtained were coded and then, through content analysis, systematized results were obtained that allowed a qualitative and quantitative analysis. The species was found to be caught using six different fishing gears (catch per unit effort, CPUE = 0.07–1.24 seahorses per boat per day) and have an important financial value. Most fishers catch seahorses incidentally, but three of them mentioned targeting them directly. Fishers perceive a decrease in catches and in the size of the Pacific seahorse, as well as an increase in prices. The information analysed indicates that seahorse populations in Sinaloa are exploited and have economic value, despite current regulations. This study shows that the exploitation of seahorses in Sinaloa is unsustainable and requires the implemention of collaborative management strategies (e.g. stakeholder management, the establishment of marine protected areas, sustainable harvest practices, community-based enforcement efforts, educational campaigns, research, and conservation partnerships) that fully take into account the knowledge and practice of local fishers of Sinaloa and Mexico. © 2023 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,,,1,34,,Aquatic Conserv.

These efforts might become the basis of a policy framework that compensates for the limitations of a regulation-oriented policy such as the designation of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). The shift in government policy could contribute to strengthening the socioeconomic infrastructure of coastal development through the accumulation of ecological capital. Although our scientific efforts and social demands in regard to the ecological restoration of the coastal wetlands have increased during the past years, the bases for restoration in Korea requires that scientific, technological, financial, social and legal aspects be enhanced. The present study re-examined the concept and attitudes behind coastal wetland restoration in the light of changing circumstances in Korea. Herein, we first defined coastal wetland restoration as “An act of recovering the functions of the ecosystem of coastal wetlands to a state that resembles conditions prior to being damaged.” Next, this study discussed the limitations and future directions of such restoration efforts based on the descriptive analyses of recent restoration practices from social, economic, and technological aspects. Finally, we suggest future policy directions regarding coastal wetland restoration on the basis of a PFST (Policy, Financial, Social, and Technological) analysis; 1) re-arranging legal mechanisms, 2) setting multidimensional restoration goals, 3) establishing a multi-discipline-and convergence based R&D system, 4) linking spatial management and local development to the restoration, 5) building restoration governance at the local level, 6) implementing an ecosystem service payment system, and 7) applying test-bed projects in accordance with proper directions. © 2015 Korea Ocean Research and Development Institute.

The precise estimation of home range size, as well as diel differences in home ranges, are essential when considering the appropriate size of an MPA. In addition, behavioral characteristics of spawning migration should also be considered for species that form spawning aggregations. Our aim was to clarify the diel variation in home range size and the degree of precision of the returning ability of white-streaked grouper Epinephelus onus by acoustic telemetry. Seventeen individuals were studied, and nighttime home range sizes that were calculated by 50 and 95% kernel utilization distributions were 5.9-fold and 5.5-fold greater, respectively, than the daytime home ranges. The average inter-center distance between home ranges during the 2 time periods ranged from 3.0 to 67.9 m (22.5 m on average), suggesting that the day-night home range shift within the home ground varied individually. Returning ability for 10 individuals that showed clear spawning migration behavior was also analyzed, and the average inter-center distance between home ranges during the periods before and after spawning was 8.1 m. Eight out of these 10 individuals showed precise returning after the spawning migration to the patchy coral substrates that were used before the spawning migration. The present study suggests that appropriate setting position of the home ground can establish long-term protection of the species due to their precise returning ability after the spawning migration. © Inter-Research 2018.",,119-132,,,606,,Mar.

One algorithm selected 78 areas of 1 km2 each, representing the minimum set of areas that includes all species at least once. Only 13 out of these 78 areas were selected from existing protected areas; therefore, 65 would have to be added to this system to achieve full representation. A second algorithm reduced this number to 55 by seeking, from the beginning, only species not included in existing protected areas. A third algorithm constrained the choice of complementary areas to those that would have the lowest potential for conflicting land use (CLU). With this algorithm, however, full representation of rare plants within protected areas would need 79 areas instead of 55, i.e. trying to minimize the number of potentially conflicting areas entails selecting a significantly larger number of areas to achieve the same conservation goal.

Four reef observation areas or marine protected areas (MPAs) were established in 1994 to examine their value in protecting vulnerable reef fish species, including the sub-tropical wrasse, Choerodon rubescens, and the coral trout, Plectropomus leopardus. In 1993 and 1994 (prior to protection), population densities and body sizes were monitored at two island groups (Easter and Wallabi). At each location, the MPAs and the equivalent 'control' areas to remain open to fishing were monitored by underwater visual censuses. These closed and open areas were subsequently monitored four more times between 1995 and 2002 to assess long-term trends in abundance and population structure. Populations of the wrasse, C. rubescens, did not appear to respond to protection, exhibiting irregular fluctuations in both closed and open areas throughout the study. In contrast, although there were no significant increases for P. leopardus for the first three years of closure, after eight years of protection there were significantly larger numbers of P. leopardus in the closed areas. There was a three-fold increase at the Easter Group and a seven-fold increase at the Wallabi Group, relative to open fishing areas, attributed primarily to reduced fishing mortality. Significant closed areas (17% of the P. leopardus habitat) provided substantial stock-wide impacts. The data also indicate that the MPAs can be effective where some forms of fishing (such as lobster fishing) are permitted which are compatible with the objectives of the MPA. While MPAs are clearly an effective tool for increasing the local abundance of some reef fishes, the spatial and temporal scales required for their success may vary among species.",,160-168,,2,31,,Environ.

Under certain atmospheric conditions that provide an atypical period, preserved forest environments are susceptible to action of fire, which can provide a drastic change in its structure and diversity. This study aimed to evaluate the occurrence of active fire in the region of the Ecological Station of Taim and Campos Neutrais, Rio Grande do Sul-Brazil (1998 to 2018). The information about the active fire was obtained through the Brazilian Biomass Burning Emission Model, from the PREP-CHEM-SRC emissions preprocessor, from which correlations were made with average precipitation data in the area and average temperature anomalies of the sea surface in the regions of Nińo and Adjacent Atlantic Ocean. The main results showed that the seasonal period with the highest occurrence of fires was the spring and summer, with the months of December and January standing out, differing from what occurs for the Pampa biome. There is a tendency of increasing active fire and decreasing trend in precipitation in the region (0,62 FC/year e 14,9 mm/year), however, without statistical significance. The results also indicate that periods with low rainfall, which started up to three months earlier, may increase the occurrence of active fire, showing that the atmosphere plays an important role in conditioning its occurrence. © 2020, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro.

In addition, there are dramatic climatic disruptions that could generate important and irreversible shifts in coastal ecosystems. Long-term monitoring plays a fundamental and irreplaceable role to establish general baselines from which we can better address current and future impacts and distinguish between natural and anthropogenic changes and fluctuations. Here we highlight how over 25 years of monitoring the coastal marine ecosystem within the notake marine protected area of Las Cruces has provided critical information to understand ecological baselines and build the necessary ecological literacy for marine management and conservation. We argue that this understanding can only be gained with simultaneous monitoring of reserves and human-impacted areas, and the development of complementary experimental studies that test alternative hypothesis about driving processes and mechanisms. In this contribution we selected four examples to illustrate long-term temporal fluctuations at all trophic levels including taxa from algae to sea birds. From these examples we draw a few general lessons: a) there is co-occurrence of rapid- and slowly- unfolding ecological responses to the exclusion of humans within the same rocky shore community. The sharp differences in the pace at which depleted populations recover is at least partly related to differences in life history (dispersal capabilities) of the targeted species. b) Long-term monitoring of the supply-side of marine communities is critical to evaluate the potential feedback effects of local changes in abundance into the arrival of new individuals and to correctly evaluate environmental and human-induced perturbations. c) Unexpected changes in local population dynamics can occur in ""independent"" and apparently non-interactive modules of the marine ecosystem, such as roosting sea birds inside the reserve. In addition we discuss the way in which ecological data generated from long-term monitoring at marine reserves was institutionalized in a national marine management policy. At the same time, we highlight the mismatch between the gained scientific information and principles from these studies and the current concept of marine protected areas that is being implemented by some government agencies in Chile. Information from long term monitoring programs has proved essential to understand how marine environments respond to anthropogenic and/or natural disturbances, however funding these schemes, which generally have no short term gains for funding agencies in both developing and developed countries, still remain a major challenge. © Sociedad de Biología de Chile.",,143-157,,1,83,,Rev.

Despite the key ecological role played by epifaunal communities associated with macroalgae in temperate coastal rocky shores worldwide, biodiversity and ecological patterns of their associated invertebrate communities are still poorly known. Aims. The present study aims to compare the amphipod assemblages associated with the dominant canopy-forming macroalgae in shallow subtidal habitats of the Alboran Sea, as well as to explore its biogeographical patterns and the influence of protection measures. Methods. Replicate samples of both Ericaria selaginoides (=Cystoseira tamariscifolia) and Halopteris scoparia were collected at two different bioregions within the Alboran Sea and both inside and outside marine protected areas. Key results. Amphipoda was the dominant taxon within the mobile epifaunal community, both in terms of number of species (47 different species were recorded) and individuals (>70% of the total abundance). Assemblages associated with E. selaginoides and H. scoparia differed and showed a marked response to the Mediterranean–Atlantic gradient in this region; species related to warmer waters become increasingly dominant towards the east. However, there were no significant differences in amphipod assemblage composition, abundance or species richness between protected and non-protected areas. Conclusions. Obtained results highlighted the relevance of these native macroalgae as habitat for epifauna, as well as the influence of macroalgal identity and regional biogeographical patterns on amphipod distribution. Implications. This study provides valuable baseline information to monitor human-induced changes such as coastal pollution, invasive species, and climate change. It also draws attention about the uncertain response of epifaunal communities to management strategies (such as marine protected areas) and ecological processes (e.g. increasing predation pressure). © 2023 The Author(s) (or their employer(s))",,50-64,,1,74,,Mar.

The aim of this research is to compare the ichthyofauna structure in three areas in the eastern part of Los Canarreos archipelago in Cuba with different management schemes: Cayo Campos-Cayo Rosario Fauna Refuge (CCCR), Cayo Largo Ecological Reserve (CL) and non-protected area (nMPA), and considering habitat differences and depth variation. A total of 131 video transects were conducted using diver operated stereo-video (stereo-DOV) in November, 2015 in backreef and forereef along the CCCR, CL and the adjacent nMPA. We recorded 84 species and 27 functional groups suggesting high complementarity of functions. Several multispecies schools were observed along surveys, which explain the biomass peaks in some sites, mainly for Lutjanidae, Haemulidae and Carangidae. A concerning issue was the bare representation of critical functional groups and threatened species. The effect of sites nested within habitats was significant and the most important driver structuring fish assemblages, while MPA condition was not evident. Favorable habitat features (habitat heterogeneity and surrounding coastal ecosystems) are likely enhancing fish assemblages and counteracting the effects of pouching derived from insufficient management. We recommend immediate actions within a strategy of precautionary management including, but not limited to, the appointment of staff for the administration of CL, frequent monitoring and effective enforcement.

For instance, Punta Francés National Park (PFNP) constitutes one of the most pristine marine environments in the Cuban archipelago, where recreational SCUBA diving has long been the most important activity. The goods and services provided by this area, the gaps in its biodiversity knowledge, and the putative effect of the MPA, prompted this research aims (1) to characterize reef fish assemblages in the coral reef of Punta Francés and (2) to test the hypothesis that PFNP hosts more abundant and diverse fish assemblages than the adjacent non-protected reef due to the higher habitat heterogeneity and protection level inside the PFNP. We have organized the analysis into four parts: (1) taxonomic and functional variation of fish assemblages; (2) potential factors influencing fish assemblage structure; (3) representativeness of species with special concern; and (4) functional redundancy analysis. The study was carried out from 2011 to 2014 in three reef habitats (reef crest, reef slope, and spur and groove), both inside and outside the PFNP. We found no differences in species and functional composition of fishes between areas with different protection levels. However, reef fish assemblages depended heavily on habitat type, demonstrating the importance of reef slope and reef crest habitats. No strong mangrove-seagrass bed-coral reef connection was evident for the ichthyofauna reported to use mangroves and seagrasses as nurseries. Low biomass and abundance of predatory species and fish families important to conservation is a concerning outcome. Some functional traits were represented by only one or very few species across the entire area, which likely compromised ecological function in the system. The most distressing issue was the non-consistent differences found between protected and non-protected areas, suggesting the necessity of reviewing the management objectives for reef fishes in PFNP and a clear need to update its management plan and perhaps its boundaries. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,60,,Reg.

Distance to the center of the MPA explained some of the variability in the abundance, functional richness, and multivariate structure of assemblages.

However, it has seldom been used in the context of endangered plants. Our aim is to accurately quantify changes in land cover over the last 60 years in a selection of 58 populations of 43 Spanish threatened plants. Consequently, we explain how these changes correlate with major trends in biodiversity conservation such as human demography, ecological gradients or the spatial distribution of plant threats. A semi-automatic classification methodology is used to identify land-cover changes by comparing aerial photographs from 1956 to 2019 in an established radius around field plots. Secondly, information from field plots and external databases was analyzed using GIS layers and PCA statistics. Land use changes have been extensive and diverse. Tree and shrubland area have increased by 717.8 ha (an increase of 1.19 times compared to the initial situation) affecting most of the samples, whereas the urban area has increased by 168.8 ha (at a rate of 49 times from the initial values), although concentrated in certain populations. Land-use changes define two groups in the endangered flora: a first group is related to high human densities, low elevation settings and low in situ protection, while a second group is related to the cessation in human pressure, protected area establishment and increase in forest cover. The increase in forested area could be counterproductive. Urban land-use changes present a more urgent issue, especially for those endangered plants in coastal areas. Finally, high herbivore density and richness compromise endangered plant populations growing at high elevation in protected areas. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,50,,Glob. Ecol.

The natural resources of this high elevation (3500-5000 m) park make a significant contribution to the livelihood of local and nomad communities. The present legislation excludes people from a park, which increases conflicts between management and local people. However, a pragmatic approach was adopted to involve people in conservation in Deosai. Community participation, achieved by recognizing rights and introducing incentives, reduced resistance against the conservation efforts, reduced grazing pressure in bear habitat and helped reduce poaching. The size of the brown bear population was set as an indicator of park success, and was monitored annually from 1993 through 2006. We observed a 5% annual growth of the brown bear population, suggesting that the conservation program has been successful due to a successful cooperation between an NGO, people, and the park management. The increase of the bear population is significant, because we observed an extremely low reproductive rate, due to late age of first reproduction (8.25 years), a long reproductive interval (5.7 years), and a small litter size (1.33). The reproductive rate of the Deosai population is the lowest yet documented for brown bear populations. Poor habitat quality, low quality food, high seasonality, and extreme weather conditions in the Himalaya probably explain the poor reproductive performance. Considering such low reproduction and known exchange of individuals with neighboring populations, we believe that the observed growth was a sum of reproduction and immigration. Brown bears are declining throughout South Asia and often have low-productive rates. Therefore, conservation efforts for brown bears in this region must target reducing human-caused mortalities, particularly of adult females. Involvement of people can increase efficiency in conservation, in addition to reducing cost and conflicts. © 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.",,2230-2241,,9,141,,Biol.

Introduction of 'cultural landscape conservation' as a new topic into international mediums has become important especially after 1980s as a result of the increase in the awareness of ""sustainability"" and ""sustainable development"". Cultural landscape areas are significant potentials in utilization of traditional lifestyles and local information showing sustainable use and living in harmony with nature to achieve ICZM principles and required appropriate governance models. Thus, traditional cultural landscapes are supported as the source for 'sustainable land use' to achieve balance between nature and human; as well as maintaining biodiversity. Being a significant Mediterranean country with its rich and diverse coastal heritage values, Turkey deserves special attention regarding coastal cultural landscape areas. Problems aroused from lack of appropriate ICZM policies, fragmentation of existing legislative tools and lack of designation status related to cultural/rural landscape areas causing severe threats on these has been the basis for discussions of this paper. For this purpose this paper aims to focus on achieving appropriate integrated management policies for coastal cultural landscape values of Turkey within the goals and strategies of ICZM principles. First section of the paper includes review on generation of important key concepts and milestones regarding cultural landscape management with specific emphasis on coastal areas and ICZM policies that are put forth by intergovernmental organizations.

For instance, the mechanism underlying ecology for ground-nesting stingless bees in ecosystems remain poorly documented. The main goal of this study was to assess what determines habitat preference for stingless bees playing an important role in plant pollination. The case of Plebeina armata (Magretti, 1895) (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Meliponini) was taken as a model. We collected information from an unsuccessful project of beekeeping of P. armata recently ran in the Ruvubu National Park, the widest protected area in Burundi in northeast of the country. We also conducted semi-structured interviews among people, mainly beekeepers, neighboring the park to document local traditional knowledge of stingless bees. Since our respondents indicated that Plebeina nested in termite mounds, we extensively sampled termite species associated with mounds in the area. We also collected soil samples from mounds with and without the bee. Wilcoxon tests were used to compare soil properties of mounds according to the occurrence of P. armata. The results of our study showed that people neighboring the Ruvubu National Park had deep knowledge on the ecology of stingless bees. Our findings also suggested that the beekeeping of Plebeina would have failed in the area due to the lack of its specific nesting requirements. This bee nested in active Macrotermitinae mounds, probably in search of optimal conditions of humidity, temperature and for security. Mounds with a sol rich in coarse silt seemed not to attract Plebeina; probably, those termitaria may not be strong to serve as a bulwark against thermal fluctuations. Our results raise the question of taking account of the traditional knowledge to any attempt to species domestication. Understanding the ecological adaptation of ground-nesting stingless bees is particularly important for restoration and conservation of their habitats and to any attempt to their beekeeping or meliponiculture in an area. © 2022 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,96,,Pedobiologia,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier GmbH,,,,adaptation; AFRICA; apiculture; Apidae; bee; Burundi; CHALLENGES; DIVERSITY; habitat selection; HONEY; HYMENOPTERA; ISOPTERA; Macrotermitinae; MACROTERMITINAE; Meliponiculture; nesting; NGOs; nongovernmental organization; POLLINATION; protected area; savanna; Stingless bees; STINGLESS BEES APIDAE; Termite mound; TERMITE MOUNDS; traditional knowledge; woodland,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

These are relatively small, temporarily closed areas (50-225 square nautical miles per RTC, closed for 21 d) that are triggered by high cod catches. An important step in evaluating their effectiveness is to determine the response of vessels to RTCs, because the conservation benefit would be reduced if vessels moved to areas of greater cod abundance following closures. Abundance indices from research-vessel surveys and commercial-vessel observer trips are combined to create a time- and space-dependent relative cod-importance index (RCII). Vessel monitoring system data from Scottish vessels fishing during 2008/2009 are used to construct RCII profiles for each vessel, which are then used to determine whether the areas to which vessels move have a higher or a lower RCII, and how far away they move when an RTC is activated. We show that the RCII of the areas moved to tends to be lower than that of the RTC and that vessels travel farther when moving away from a closure than when moving back after reopening. Although not conclusive, this result indicates that RTCs may impact beneficially on cod mortality. © 2011 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.",,1647-1655,,8,68,,ICES J. Mar.

However, few studies have applied these models in large estuaries which have unique characteristics that need to be considered in MPA design, including strong physical, chemical and biological gradients and significant human impacts. We explored how one design model, MARXAN, can be applied to estuarine systems by developing MPA design scenarios for Long Island Sound, an estuary in the northeastern USA. Using sedimentary texture as a proxy for habitats, we modeled and tested several scenarios where conservation goals differed with respect to location and spatial scale but included 10 to 20% representation of target habitats and spatially contiguous MPAs. When the entire estuary was modeled, potentially critical locations were not included in the solutions. Dividing the estuary into regions to account for spatial gradients proved a better approach. Final MPA solutions were tested for effectiveness by comparing benthic species richness and community composition inside and outside solutions. Solutions in the eastern region of Long Island Sound generally contained higher species richness, likely due to the inclusion of highly heterogeneous portions of the sea floor within most solutions, but community composition varied. In contrast, solutions in the western/central region of the estuary usually had lower species richness but similar community composition. We also made preliminary assessments of how human activities, including dredge disposal, resource extraction and sediment pollution, might affect MPA design in estuaries. Our results illustrate potential conflicts that may arise due to the geographic location of best MPA candidate areas in estuarine regions with environmental impacts and human activities. Several tradeoffs will likely affect MPA design and selection in large estuarine systems, and MPA design models may prove useful in focusing these efforts. © Inter-Research 2008.",,Nov-23,,,373,,Mar.

Recent studies suggest that protected areas hold enormous potential to conserve freshwater biodiversity if augmented with appropriate planning and management strategies. Recognizing this need, South Africa's relevant government authority commissioned a spatial assessment to inform their national protected area expansion strategy. This study presents the freshwater component of the spatial assessment, aimed at identifying focus areas for expanding the national protected area system for the benefit of river biodiversity. Conservation objectives to guide the assessment aimed to improve representation of river biodiversity pattern and processes in both new and existing protected areas. Data to address these objectives were collated in a Geographic Information System (GIS) and a conservation planning algorithm was used as a means of integrating the multiple objectives in a spatially efficient manner. Representation of biodiversity pattern was based on achieving conservation targets for 222 river types and 47 freshwater fish endemic to South Africa. Options were also identified for representing coarse-scale biodiversity processes associated with free-flowing rivers and catchment-estuarine linkages. River reaches that, with only minor expansion of existing protected area boundaries, could be fully incorporated into the national protected area system were also identified. Based on this study, generic recommendations are made on how to locate, design and manage protected areas for river biodiversity: use appropriate planning units, incorporate both biodiversity pattern and process, improve planning and management of individual protected areas, incorporate a mixture of protection strategies, and embed planning into an ongoing research and implementation process. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

The status of river ecosystems associated with main rivers in South Africa was assessed based on the extent to which each ecosystem had been altered from its natural condition. This requires consistent data on river integrity for the entire country, which was only available for main rivers; tributaries were thus excluded from the analyses. The state of main river ecosystems in South Africa is dire: 84% of the ecosystems are threatened, with a disturbing 54% critically endangered, 18% endangered, and 12% vulnerable. Protection levels were measured as the proportion of conservation target achieved within protected areas, where the conservation target was set as 20% of the total length of each river ecosystem. Sixteen of the 112 main river ecosystems are moderately to well represented within protected areas; the majority of the ecosystems have very low levels of representation, or are not represented at all within protected areas. Only 50% of rivers within protected areas are intact, but this is a higher proportion compared to rivers outside (28%), providing some of the first quantitative data on the positive role protected areas can play in conserving river ecosystems. This is also the first assessment of river ecosystems in South Africa to apply a similar approach to parallel assessments of terrestrial, marine, and estuarine ecosystems, and it revealed that main river ecosystems are in a critical state, far worse than terrestrial ecosystems. Ecosystem status is likely to differ with the inclusion of tributaries, since options may well exist for conserving critically endangered ecosystems in intact tributaries, which are generally less regulated than main rivers. This study highlights the importance of healthy tributaries for achieving river conservation targets, and the need for managing main rivers as conduits across the landscape to support ecological processes that depend on connectivity. We also highlight the need for a paradigm shift in the way protected areas are designated, as well as the need for integrated river basin management plans to include explicit conservation visions, targets, and strategies to ensure the conservation of freshwater ecosystems and the services they provide. © 2007 The Authors.",,341-352,,3,13,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Africa; assessment method; biodiversity; conservation assessment; Conservation assessment; conservation biogeography; Conservation biogeography; conservation planning; conservation status; Conservation status; DISTURBANCE; endangered species; freshwater biodiversity; Freshwater biodiversity; freshwater conservation planning; Freshwater conservation planning; freshwater ecosystem; integrated river basin management; Integrated river basin management; protected area; protected area gap analysis; Protected area gap analysis; river management; South Africa; Southern Africa; Sub-Saharan Africa,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Such sites, however, may be exposed to the potential impacts from broader scale pressures, such as anthropogenic litter, due to its diffuse nature and lack of constraint by legislative and/or political boundaries. Plastic, a large component of litter, is of particular concern, due to increasing evidence of its potential to cause ecological and socio-economic damage. The presence of sensitive marine features may mean that some MPAs are at greater potential risk from the impacts of plastic pollution than some non-protected sites. Understanding the abundance, distribution and composition of litter along coastlines is important for designing and implementing effective management strategies. Gathering such data, however, can be expensive and time-consuming but litter survey programmes that enlist citizen scientists are often able to resolve many of the logistical or financial constraints. Here, we examine data collected over 25-years (1994–2018), by Marine Conservation Society volunteers, for spatial patterns in relation to the English MPA network, with the aim of highlighting key sources of litter and identifying management priority areas. We found that MPAs in southeast (Kent) and southwest (Cornwall and Devon) England have the highest densities of shore-based litter. Plastic is the main material constituent and public littering the most common identifiable source. Items attributed to fishing activities were most prevalent in southwest MPAs and sewage related debris was highest in MPAs near large rivers and estuaries, indicating localised accumulation. When comparing inside and outside of MPAs, we found no difference in litter density, demonstrating the need for wider policy intervention at local, national and international scales to reduce the amount of litter. © 2020",,,,,263,,Environ.

We characterize the detection capabilities of a network of randomly-deployed sensors with varying sensing capabilities. We develop a framework for analytically approximating the probability that such a sensor field detects a constant course target moving through the region as a function of the number of sensors deployed and the statistical properties that govern the sensing range. Analytical and empirical results indicate that, when the total sensing area is fixed, a set of smaller distributed sensors can achieve significantly improved detection performance relative to a single large sensor. We also study the relationship between coverage of a region of interest and likelihood of detecting a constant course intruder moving through that region. We derive expressions for the average number of sensors required to achieve a prescribed likelihood of detection and level of coverage and conclude that detection and coverage are fundamentally different characterizations of the capabilities of a sensor field. In fact, the number of sensors required to achieve a particular detection level may be several orders of magnitude smaller than that required to achieve the same level of coverage. © 2016 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.",,708-728,,6,5,,Int.

Historically, the governance and financing of land and sea conservation have been separated; yet coastal tourism directly involves a mix of activities and development challenges which link land and sea together on the coast. Marine parks, and numerous studies examining their funding schemes, have typically focused on mandatory user fees targeting specific types of activities. For example, many studies focus only on scuba divers' willingness to pay (WTP) for marine conservation. Alternative funding mechanisms, such as voluntary contributions, may be preferred, or even necessary, to traditional government imposed fees, but much less is known about effective implementation. Relatively few studies focus on bundled cross-boundary conservation activities (i.e., land and sea conservation) from all visitors of a marine park (i.e., beachgoers, surfers, boaters, snorkelers) and its encompassing coastal area. In this study we target tourists visiting a popular island and employ field experimental methods to explore the optimal donation request mechanism and pricing levels that influence real voluntary payments for conservation. The field experiment examines voluntary payments under the treatment conditions: open-ended, a set of several suggested donation amounts, and default opt-in and opt-out at two price levels. The field experiment was conducted with tourists on the island of Gili Trawangan, Indonesia. Results reveal that tourists are willing to donate to bundled land-sea conservation issues and that there is a significantly higher propensity to donate in all treatment conditions compared to the open-ended condition. The default opt-out conditions garnered the highest rate of donations at 75% and 62% respectively for the lower and higher set amounts. The mean donation amount was largest in the higher default opt-out condition. Our results suggest that the optimal method of requesting voluntary donations is a set default amount requiring users to opt-out if they do not wish to donate. Implementing a default opt-out eco-donation targeting all types of visitors represents a significant source of funding and illustrates the potential for donations to finance land and sea conservation efforts, an important avenue for future investigation in many interconnected systems that have been historically governed and financed separately. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,30-43,,,237,,J.

Spawning aggregations are often targeted by local fishermen, making them extremely vulnerable to over fishing. The Red Hind Bank Marine Conservation District located in St. Thomas, United States Virgin Islands, was closed seasonally in 1990 and closed permanently in 1999 to protect an important red hind Epinephelus guttatus spawning site. This study provides some of the first information on the population response of a spawning aggregation located within a marine protected area. Tag-and-release fishing and fish transects were used to evaluate population characteristics and habitat utilization patterns of a red hind spawning aggregation between 1999 and 2004. Compared with studies conducted before the permanent closure, the average size of red hind increased mostly during the seasonal closure period (10 cm over 12 yr), but the maximum total length of male red hind increased by nearly 7 cm following permanent closure. Average density and biomass of spawning red hind increased by over 60 % following permanent closure whereas maximum spawning density more than doubled. Information from tag returns indicated that red hind departed the protected area following spawning and migrated 6 to 33 km to a ca. 500 km2 area. Protection of the spawning aggregation site may have also contributed to an overall increase in the size of red hind caught in the commercial fishery, thus increasing the value of the grouper fishery for local fishermen. © Inter-Research 2005.",,81-97,,,286,,Mar.

Population collapse in most places occurred primarily by fishers targeting their spawning aggregation sites, where thousands of fish gathered during full moon periods from December to April. Identifying management options for protecting this vulnerable period is crucial for their survival. In the US Virgin Islands, we tagged 24 Nassau grouper with acoustic transmitters at a fish spawning aggregation (FSA) site called the Grammanik Bank, a 1.5 km2, marine protected area (MPA) closed each year from February to April. We tracked their movements over a seven-year period and found that the small MPA protected Nassau grouper only 65% of time during the spawning season. Nassau grouper arrived at the FSA from January to May, with a peak in March, and made daily roundtrip migrations (1-25 km) from the FSA site. Females swam twice as far as males, while males were more sedentary and remained longer (22 d) at the FSA than females (9 d); behavioural characteristics that may cause differential bycatch mortality among sexes. We also found nearly half of all fish were temporary residents within 5 km of the FSA site for 2 to 6 months after the spawning season. This mismatch of MPA size and timing of closed season provided the impetus for developing new guidelines for protection. The large acoustic array allowed us to calculate spatially relevant areas useful for conservation including courtship arena (1.2 km2), staging area (4.7 km2) and primary migration pathways (9.6 km2) used by Nassau grouper during spawning season. To improve conservation goals of this endangered species, increasing the Grammanik Bank seasonal closure to five months and its size to 6.4 km2 would increase protection to >96%. These spatial and temporal changes to existing management regulations incorporate the best available data to improve conservation goals by reducing potential bycatch mortality, eliminating disturbance of spawning fish, and protecting critical spawning habitat for Nassau grouper. These guidelines may also be applied more broadly to other Nassau grouper FSA sites located on large insular or continental shelfs areas throughout the Caribbean.

In this context, our novel research aimed, on the one hand, to assess and quantify the actual impact of beam trawling and, on the other hand, to propose effective spatial/temporal management measures for a sustainable zonation of the North-Western Black Sea shelf (marine zone of the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve). The methodology used integrated beam trawl catch dynamics information, VMS data, geophysical investigations, and macrozoobenthos sampling. Our findings show that beam trawling activities can cause changes in the benthic habitat structure (lower number of taxa, lower values of ecological indicators, and an overall non-GES status).

We assessed recent peat forest disturbances and their direct drivers from 2019 to 2021 in Cuvette Centrale, spanning the Republic of Congo (ROC) and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Utilizing peatland maps and Radar for Detecting Deforestation alert data, we analyzed spatial and temporal patterns of disturbances. Further, we examined 2267 randomly sampled peat forest disturbance events through visual interpretation of monthly Planet and Sentinel 2A data to identify direct drivers. Our findings revealed that between 2019 and 2021, about 91% of disturbances occurred in DRC, with hotspots concentrated in the northwest Sud-Ubangi district. Disturbances predominantly followed a sharp seasonal pattern, recurring during the first half of each year with temporal hotspots emerging between February and May, closely associated with smallholder agriculture activities. Smallholder agriculture accounted for over 88% of disturbances in Cuvette Centrale, representing a leading role both in ROC (?77%) and DRC (?89%). While small-scale logging contributed 7% to the disturbances in the region, it constituted an important driver (18%) in the ROC. Other drivers included floods, roads, and settlements. Approximately 77% of disturbances occurred outside managed forest concessions in Cuvette Centrale, with 40% extending into protected areas. About 90% of disturbances were concentrated within 1 km of peat forest edges and ?76% of the disturbances occurred within 5 km of road or river networks. The insights underscore the crucial need for effective peat forest conservation strategies in Cuvette Centrale and can inform national policies targeting peatland protection, aligning with commitments in the Brazzaville Declaration and the Paris Agreement.

Marine litter (34.12 kg) was caught by artisanal fishermen in MONA Cagarras proximities, and plastics represented ?79 %. Personal hygiene items and strains of hair were found, suggesting sewage-derived contamination from Ipanema SSO. Microplastics were detected in MONA Cagarras surface waters. Fragments and black particle were the most frequently found microplastic shape and color, respectively. ?-FTIR analysis identified, in descending order of occurrence, polystyrene-PS, polyethylene-PE, polyvinyl chloride-PVC, polypropylene-P, and polyamide-PA.

Research in developmental habitats is crucial to understanding individual dynamics and to support conservation strategies. One approach to gather information in foraging grounds is the use of cost-effective and non-invasive techniques that allow public participation. The present study aimed to use photographic-identification (photo-ID) to investigate the spatio-temporal distribution of Chelonia mydas and Eretmochelys imbricata. Furthermore, we describe fibropapillomatosis occurrence. This work was carried out at subtropical rocky reefs of the Brazilian coast in Arraial do Cabo (22°57?S, 42°01?W), within a sustainable conservation unit. A total of 641 images were obtained through social media screening (n = 447), citizen science (n = 168), or intentional capture (n = 26) dated between 2006 and 2021. Additionally, 19 diving forms (between 2019 and 2021) were received from citizen scientists. All diving forms presented at least one turtle. Photo-ID identified 174 individuals of C. mydas, with 45 being resighted, while E. imbricata had 32 individuals, with 7 individuals resighted. The median interval between the first and last individual sighting was 1.7 years for C. mydas and 2.4 years for E. imbricata. Fibropapillomatosis was only observed in C. mydas, with a prevalence of 13.99% (20 of 143 individuals) and regression in 2 individuals (10.00%). Our results indicated that Arraial do Cabo is an important development area with individuals residing for at least 6 years. This study demonstrated that social media, along with photo-ID, can be useful to provide sea turtle estimates in a foraging ground using a non-invasive, low-cost method. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,,,7,170,,Mar.

Due to conservation resource limitation, species need to be prioritized to protect desirable properties of biodiversity, such as functional diversity (FD), which has been associated with greater ecosystem functioning but is difficult to quantify directly. Selecting species to maximize phylogenetic diversity (PD) has been shown to indirectly capture FD in certain other taxa but not corals. Here, we test this hypothesis, the “phylogenetic gambit”, on corals within global marine protected areas (MPAs). Location: Global coral reefs. Methods: Based on the global distributions of reef corals, a complete species-level phylogeny and trait data, we compared the FD of coral assemblages within MPAs when selected to maximize PD versus FD for assemblages selected randomly. The relationships between PD and FD were also tested as predictors of surrogacy. We then used coral FD and PD to perform spatial prioritization of reefs for protection and assessed the congruence between the two approaches. Results: Selecting assemblages to maximize PD captured significantly more FD than a random subset of species for 83.1% of all selection scenarios across MPAs and would protect on average 18.7% more FD than random selection. Spatial prioritization analyses showed some mismatches between PD- and FD-optimized planning units, particularly in the Tropical Western Atlantic, but the high degree of overlap between the optimizations for other reef regions lends further credence to the PD-maximizing strategy in conserving coral FD. Main Conclusions: A PD-maximizing strategy generally protects greater FD of coral assemblages relative to random selection of species, suggesting that the “phylogenetic gambit” is valid for reef corals. There are risks, however, and the mismatches between PD-maximized and FD-maximized MPA networks highlight specific shortcomings of the PD-maximization approach. Nevertheless, in data-deficient circumstances, maximizing PD may provide a viable alternative. © 2022 The Authors.

However, these advantages have resulted into an increasing attraction, especially in the recent centuries. The human pressure determined numerous impacts on the ecosystems and ultimately on the safety and welfare of the coastal inhabitants, aggravated by the consequences of the global changes. The present study aims to explore two particular impacts, erosion and accretion, based on statistical data and unpublished studies, in an effort to increase the awareness towards the fact that the issue has a global extent. In addition, possible solutions are examined. The results indicate that erosion and accretion are present in all the three countries examined, and their extent tends to increase. Our findings suggest a need to act urgently; the phenomena need to be stopped first using engineering solutions, but a careful planning is needed in the long run, especially through restrictions meant to stop the “derogatory planning”.

Aims: As Target 19 aims to raise the generation, transfer and application of knowledge on biodiversity, the objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of Aichi Biodiversity Targets on the interdisciplinary research output, quality, and collaboration at the national scale regarding biodiversity and tourism. Methods: The Hamiltonian Markov Chain Monter Carlo technique, incorporating the bibliometric analysis, was performed on 1176 documents extracted from the Web of Science database. Key results: The current investigation revealed two prominent findings. First, the Aichi Biodiversity Targets positively affected scientific productivity, quality and international collaboration at the national level. Still, more than half of the countries on Earth (53.41%) had not acquired any interdisciplinary publication on the topic of biodiversity and tourism. Second, international collaboration was found to be an effective measure to improve scientific quality and quantity in both periods before and after the Aichi Targets. Although the impact of international collaboration on scientific output was similar between the two periods, its impact on scientific quality during 2011-2020 was lower than during 1991-2010. Conclusions: Thus, we argue that international cooperation cannot be used as a 'silver bullet' strategy for advancing knowledge in the interdisciplinary field between biodiversity and tourism due to the trilemma between quantity, quality and cost. Implications: We recommend policymakers, funding evaluators and researchers put culture into perspective to lessen the cost of interdisciplinary research.  © 2021",,,,,,,Pac. Conserv.

However, community members have not made the best use of the allocated areas, and mangroves have not been well protected. The policy is due to be revised in late 2016, as is legally required. This study used mixed methods to review the policy and its implementation with respect to mangrove protection requirements and use of mangroves for livelihood improvement and to provide recommendations for sustainable mangrove management in Kien Giang. The policy and its implementation is demonstrated to be a constraint to achieving its goal. Limited understanding of the policy of contractees resulted in ineffective and inefficient aquaculture and mangrove protection in almost all areas. Permitted thinning and selective harvests led to the creation of substantial gaps and disconnections in the established mangroves, making the entire coastline vulnerable to coastal erosion. Improper technical guidance on the configuration of mangrove allocations, and mangrove protection and transplantation methods resulted in the mangrove protected areas being fragmented and vulnerable to erosion. Permitted thinning and selective harvest practices should be reviewed to ensure adequate resilience and protection of mangrove areas, especially on critically eroding areas. Proper law enforcement should be put in place to ensure contracts are adequately implemented. Allocation and/or transferal of areas less than 1 ha must be discontinued in the future to avoid further defragmentation and degradation. Technical guidance on configuring allocated mangrove areas should be established and incorporated into the updated policy that would help improve the effectiveness of the policy, and address problems relating to strengthening resilience and protection of mangrove areas in Kien Giang Province, Vietnam. Similar programs using mangrove area allocation to individuals and households in response to mangrove area loss exist elsewhere in the Mekong delta.

Due to considerable declines in African wildlife populations, most large African mammals are managed inside protected areas. Protected areas come in various sizes, and have different environmental features, climates and management strategies (i.e. ""hands-on' or ""hands-off') that can influence an animals' homeostasis. White rhinos (Ceratotherium simum simum) are found almost exclusively within protected areas where population sizes are driven by natural factors and poaching pressures. Aims. Our aim was to understand the effect of natural and anthropogenic factors on the adrenocortical response of white rhinos within three protected areas. Specifically, we wanted to understand how poaching pressure, protected area size (< 500 km(2)), season (wet and dry) and rainfall patterns were responsible for driving adrenocortical activity in white rhino. Methods. To understand the relationship between rhino adrenocortical responses and different environmental and anthropogenic stressors, we quantified glucocorticoid metabolites in faecal samples (fGCM) collected from four populations within three protected areas (i.e. two small parks, one big park) during the wet and dry seasons. Key results. We found differences in seasonal fGCM concentrations, with a 42% increase during the dry season, and no differences in fGCM concentrations between the high and low poaching areas. Additionally, we found fGCM concentrations in samples from the small parks were respectively 38% and 42% higher than in samples from the large park during both the dry and wet seasons compared. Conclusions. Our results suggest that white rhinos may experience physiological stress in smaller parks, especially during the dry season when resources are limited. Implications.

Until recently, the cartographic support used in Danube Delta was the one made in 1965, with a reduced precision and not accurate now because of the geomorphologic changes. The DTM can be made using the most advanced method, remote sensing (LIDAR Light Detection and Ranging,) which leads to a high precision both on X, Y (1 m) and the Z (0.2 m). The advantages of digital mapping support so provided are: Faster and cheaper preparation of maps; Designing maps for users in different areas of interest; The possibility to obtain maps in crisis; Facilitate data analysis aimed at interaction between statistics and mapping; Increase efficiency by using digital maps versus printed maps; The possibility of achieving three-dimensional and stereoscopic representations; Automation the entire process of mapping. General support of high resolution digital map consists of four components: digital terrain model (DTM), digital elevation model (DEM) elevation classes (EC), orthophotomaps (OFP). These components are the basic support for carrying out most of the actions set out in Management Plans.

Harvest control rules and marine reserves offer two means of controlling fishing mortality, and provide managers with mechanisms through which precaution can be exercised. We incorporate the two control mechanisms into a bioeconomic model in which fishing-induced habitat damage occurs. A parameterized model is used to assess alternative ways of exercising precaution in stock recovery plans in achieving stock rebuilding, while taking into consideration the economic and socio-economic objectives of fisheries management. Results strengthen the case for using marine reserves to rebuild depleted stocks, highlighting their role in providing a hedge against negative habitat-fishery feedbacks by directly protecting biomass and indirectly preventing a decline in the carrying capacity. Overall, we show that where a fishery is characterised by fishing-induced habitat damage, a stock rebuilding strategy that incorporates both harvest control rules and marine reserves will outperform a strategy that uses the two control mechanisms individually, across all performance indicators. © 2017",,359-369,,,146,,Ecol.

We present a framework for using biodiversity indicators predictively to inform policy choices at a global level. The approach is illustrated with two case studies in which we project forwards the impacts of feasible policies on trends in biodiversity and in relevant indicators. The policies are based on targets agreed at the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) meeting in Nagoya in October 2010. The first case study compares protected area policies for African mammals, assessed using the Red List Index; the second example uses the Living Planet Index to assess the impact of a complete halt, versus a reduction, in bottom trawling. In the protected areas example, we find that the indicator can aid in decision-making because it is able to differentiate between the impacts of the different policies. In the bottom trawling example, the indicator exhibits some counter-intuitive behaviour, due to over-representation of some taxonomic and functional groups in the indicator, and contrasting impacts of the policies on different groups caused by trophic interactions. Our results support the need for further research on how to use predictive models and indicators to credibly track trends and inform policy. To be useful and relevant, scientists must make testable predictions about the impact of global policy on biodiversity to ensure that targets such as those set at Nagoya catalyse effective and measurable change. © 2012 Nicholson et al.",,,,7,7,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"Africa; Animals; article; Biodiversity; Biomass; case study; clinical assessment tool; conservation biology; Conservation of Natural Resources; Convention on Biological Diversity; decision making; Ecosystem; Environment; environmental management; environmental planning; environmental protection; Humans; International Cooperation; Living Planet Index; Mammalia; marine environment; Models, Theoretical; nonhuman; population abundance; prediction; Public Policy; Red List Index; Research; Science; Time Factors",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of forest restoration of the Seasonal Semideciduous Forest in the Upper Paraná Atlantic Forest ecoregion, Brazil, using epigaeic ant assemblages as bioindicators, by comparing ant species richness and composition in the Reservoir Protection Strip with adjacent areas, such as the primary forest of the Iguaçu National Park and the Permanent Preservation Area located on a rural property and agricultural areas. In total, 171 ant species were identified. Ant species richness was higher in forest than in agricultural areas and did not differ among forest areas. However, ant species composition in forest areas, regardless of the restoration technique used, was not similar to the primary forest, possibly due to variation in forest recovery time. This study highlights the great value of the Iguaçu National Park as a conservation unit. Also, it reveals that the efforts for the creation and maintenance of the Reservoir Protection Strip, which remains without anthropic interventions for years, might indeed lead to a complete recovery of the ant species composition over time, reinforcing their great importance for biodiversity conservation.  © The Author(s), 2023.

Such predictions are needed to evaluate whether MPAs are working as expected, and if not, why. This evaluation is necessary to perform adaptive management, identifying whether and when adjustments to management might be necessary to achieve MPA goals. Using monitoring data and population models, we quantified expected responses of targeted species to MPA implementation and compared them to monitoring data. The model required two factors to explain observed responses in MPAs: (a) pre-MPA harvest rates, which can vary at local spatial scales, and (b) recruitment variability before and after MPA establishment. Low recruitment years before MPA establishment in our study system drove deviations from expected equilibrium population size distributions and introduced an additional time lag to response detectability. Synthesis and applications. We combined monitoring data and population models to show how (a) harvest rates prior to Marine Protected Area (MPA) implementation, (b) variability in recruitment, and (c) initial population size structure determine whether a response to MPA establishment is detectable. Pre-MPA harvest rates across MPAs plays a large role in MPA response detectability, demonstrating the importance of measuring this poorly known parameter. While an intuitive expectation is for response detectability to depend on recruitment variability and stochasticity in population trajectories after MPA establishment, we address the overlooked role of recruitment variability before MPA establishment, which alters the size structure at the time of MPA establishment. These factors provide MPA practitioners with reasons whether or not MPAs may lead to responses of targeted species. Our overall approach provides a framework for a critical step of adaptive management. © 2019 The Authors.

Yet, there is no clear-cut guidance on how genetic features can be incorporated into conservation-planning processes, despite multiple molecular markers and several genetic metrics for each marker type to choose from. Genetic patterns differ between species, but the potential tradeoffs among genetic objectives for multiple species in conservation planning are currently understudied. We compared spatial conservation prioritizations derived from 2 metrics of genetic diversity (nucleotide and haplotype diversity) and 2 metrics of genetic isolation (private haplotypes and local genetic differentiation) in mitochondrial DNA of 5 marine species. We compared outcomes of conservation plans based only on habitat representation with plans based on genetic data and habitat representation. Fewer priority areas were selected for conservation plans based solely on habitat representation than on plans that included habitat and genetic data. All 4 genetic metrics selected approximately similar conservation-priority areas, which is likely a result of prioritizing genetic patterns across a genetically diverse array of species. Largely, our results suggest that multispecies genetic conservation objectives are vital to creating protected-area networks that appropriately preserve community-level evolutionary patterns. © 2016 Society for Conservation Biology",,872-882,,4,31,,Conserv.

For instance, biodiversity represents value for the global community, but biodiversity protection imposes various costs on local communities that depend on forests, marine areas, and other habitats of conservation importance in developing countries. Correcting this misalignment requires presenting these local communities with appropriate incentives. Conservation agreements—negotiated transactions in which conservation investors finance direct social benefits in return for conservation actions by communities—are one tool for doing so. This direct incentive approach departs from Integrated Conservation and Development (ICDP) approaches by explicitly linking benefits to verified conservation performance by resource owners/users, thus requiring effective performance monitoring protocols. In doing so, conservation agreements parallel the logic of easements and related mechanisms used in developed countries, but adapt that logic to property rights and governance challenges that characterize developing country contexts. This paper will present the conservation agreement model using examples of agreements supported by Conservation International's Conservation Stewards Program (CSP), and drawing on a recent portfolio-wide assessment of these experiences. Elements to be considered include conservation outcomes as well as socio-economic impacts and financial and institutional sustainability. Individual agreements in the CSP portfolio vary widely with respect to conservation objectives, including efforts to protect individual species, improve natural resource management, prevent carbon emissions from deforestation, and reinforce protected areas; the paper will argue that the conservation agreement model readily lends itself to tailoring for particular conservation aims as well as community development priorities. The paper will conclude by summarizing the strengths and limitations of the conservation agreement model and identifying key considerations for scaling up the approach to advance conservation and poverty alleviation at regional and national levels. © 2010 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.",,05-Aug,,01-Feb,11,,Biodiversity,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, many species for which they are designated are highly mobile, and may move among sites within and beyond PA boundaries. Environmental impacts on sites beyond those boundaries could thus impact the PA's protected populations, with the risk of adversely affecting its conservation objectives. Conservationists therefore urgently need tools to assess impacts on PAs and their populations of developments beyond their boundaries. We present a framework for using network analysis of observations of marked individuals to assess the protection footprint of PAs in the wider landscape and the impact footprint of developments within or neighboring PAs. We illustrate the use of this framework by assessing the impact of a current airport development proposal on a partially protected wetland, the Tagus estuary in Portugal, specifically by evaluating the extent of noise disturbance on the PA's population of Black-tailed Godwits, a protected migratory wader species. By analyzing individual movements between sites and across seasons, we find disturbance impacts on up to 68.3% of individual Black-tailed Godwits overall, greatly exceeding the estimates of 0.46–5.5% in the airport's Environmental Impact Assessments which derived from count data. We then compared the pre-development network with simulated networks that represented two levels of site avoidance by removing sites predicted to receive noise in excess of two thresholds, 55 or 65 dB(A). Avoidance by Godwits of the potentially-impacted sites is predicted to have a larger effect on network structure than removing the same number of sites at random, suggesting that an airport in the proposed location would operate as a barrier to connectivity in this wetland. We also highlight the role that network analyses of locations of marked individuals can play in assessing environmental impacts on protected sites and populations. © 2023 The Authors.

Mapping and monitoring their distribution is integral to understanding the ecology of kelp forests and to inform marine protected area planning. Canada's Pacific coast presents specific challenges to mapping canopy forming kelp with thousands of kilometers of coastline, complex topography, and a large tidal range. While in situ methods and manual interpretation of aerial photography are commonly used to map canopy-forming kelp at local or regional scales, these methods are prohibitively expensive for continued large-area application. Historical and current available inventories of kelp extent are therefore incomplete for Canada's Pacific Coast. The advent of Google Earth Engine, a cloud-computing platform with a repository of Landsat imagery, provides an opportunity to apply Landsat image archive analyses and integrate temporal compositing and filtering to obtain unprecedented data on historical and current kelp extents. However, the effects of the spatial resolution and temporal coverage for mapping canopy-forming kelp in regions with complex coastlines and large tidal ranges are unknown. The objectives of this study were twofold: (1) develop a tool within Google Earth Engine to automate the detection of kelp using the Landsat satellite image archive, and (2) quantify the associated limitations for mapping the surface extent of canopy-forming kelp by comparing Landsat derived kelp extent with extents derived from WorldView-2 satellite imagery. The results indicate that the overall accuracy of the developed method is high at 80% and very close in accuracy to WorldView-2 data, but no detection is feasible within approximately one 30 m pixel from the shoreline. The interaction between the spatial resolution, kelp bed size, and bed configuration affected the detected kelp extent, as did the tide level during image acquisition. For both sensors, a 2 m increase in tide resulted in a 40% decrease in kelp extent detected. The Google Earth Engine kelp mapping tool presented provides an efficient and transferable method for mapping canopy kelp extent, and the only currently available method to reconstruct coast wide kelp development for the past three decades. The presented tool has applications in conservation and management planning, for example in creating a baseline of past kelp extent and examining trends in kelp forest variability. © 2018",,41-50,,,220,,Remote Sens.

Previously estimated at 100,000-150,000, the population now numbers 18,000-33,000 (18,000 if just the Tierra del Fuego birds are C. c. rufa, more if the Red Knots of uncertain subspecific status that winter in northern Brazil (7,500) or Florida (7,500) are also C. c. rufa). Counts show that the main Tierra del Fuego wintering population dropped from 67,546 in 1985 to 51,255 in 2000, 29,271 in 2002, 31,568 in 2004, but only 17,653 in 2005 and 17,211 in 2006. Demographic studies covering 1994-2002 showed that the population decline over that period was related to a drop in annual adult survival from 85% during 1994-1998 to 56% during 1999-2001. Population models showed that if adult survival remained low, C. c. rufa would go extinct within about 10 yr. After 2002, the population held up in 2003-2004, but plunged again by nearly 50% in 2005 increasing the likelihood of extinction within the next decade. Despite intensive studies, the reasons for the population decline and reduced adult survival are imperfectly known. During northward migration, most C. c. rufa stopover in Delaware Bay where they feed mainly on the eggs of horseshoe crabs (Limulus polyphemus) and lay down fat and protein reserves both to fuel the 3,000 km flight to the arctic breeding grounds and ensure their survival after they arrive at a time when food availability is often low. The crucial importance of Delaware Bay is demonstrated by studies that show that Red Knots with lower mass in Delaware Bay have lower survival than heavier birds and that from 1998-2002 the proportion of birds there at the end of May weighing more than the estimated departure mass of 180 g declined by >60%. This might be the result of the progressive failure of the food supply in Delaware Bay and/or a trend for birds to arrive there later and/or in poorer condition. In years when Red Knots experience reduced food availability and arrive late, the result may be an exacerbation of the effects of each of these deleterious factors. The main identified threat to the C. c. rufa population is the reduced availability of horseshoe crabs eggs in Delaware Bay arising from elevated harvest of adult crabs for bait in the conch and eel fishing industries. Since 1990 the crab population has declined substantially. Although significant uncertainty regarding the extent of the decline of the horseshoe crab population remains, there is general agreement that horseshoe crab stocks have declined to a level where increased management of the fishery is necessary and appropriate. The decline in crabs has led to a decrease in the density of eggs available to shorebirds. Because of the crab's delayed maturity, demographic models indicate that even if further exploitation of crabs ceases immediately, it will be some years before the horseshoe crab population recovers to its former level. Although clear evidence, as in 2003 and 2005, shows that the reduced availability of eggs is already having an impact in some years on the Red Knots ability to gain mass in Delaware Bay, it is likely that other threats to C. c. rufa exist and that these are the cause of some birds arriving in the bay late and/or in poor condition. It is not known what these are, but they could be related to Bahia Lomas, the main wintering site in Tierra del Fuego (because the largest reduction in recent years has occurred there and because northward migration from Bahia Lomas along the Atlantic coast of Argentina has taken place 1-2 wk later since year 2000). If it is proved that something leads Red Knots to arrive late in Delaware Bay and/or in poor condition, this does not diminish the importance of the Delaware Bay food resource. If anything, it is increased because it is of critical importance in enabling the birds to recover quickly and reach the breeding grounds on time and in good reproductive condition. Actions being taken to improve feeding conditions for Red Knots and other shorebirds in Delaware Bay include beach closures to prevent disturbance and exclosures to reduce competition from gulls. However, although these measures help, they are no substitute for a recovered horseshoe crab population. Actions to conserve horseshoe crabs have included reduced harvest quotas, more efficient use of crabs as bait, closure of the harvest in certain seasons and places and the designation of a sanctuary off the mouth of Delaware Bay. The latest information indicates that the crab population may have stabilized, but there is no evidence of recovery. Another Red Knot subspecies, C. c. roselaari, breeds in Alaska and is presumed to include those Red Knots that winter on the Pacific coast of the United States and Mexico. Two other Red Knot wintering populations are of uncertain subspecific status -one in the southeastern U.S. (mainly Florida) of about 7,500 and one on the north coast of Brazil also of about 7,500. These populations have not been the subject of regular systematic surveys, but it is not thought that either has suffered the same catastrophic decline as the C. c. rufa that winter in Tierra del Fuego. Substantial proportions of both pass through Delaware Bay during northward migration, but banding shows that these are distinct populations without interchange with the Tierra del Fuego birds. Moreover, genetic studies show that no exchange of genes has occurred between the southeastern U.S. and the Tierra del Fuego birds for at least 1,200 yr. Some progress has been made toward understanding why the Tierra del Fuego population has suffered a major decline, but the northern wintering birds have apparently remained more stable. It appears that physiological constraints mean that the southern birds, which mostly make a long, non-stop flight to Delaware Bay from at least northern Brazil, are more reliant on soft, easily-digested horseshoe crab eggs in Delaware Bay than the northern winterers, many of which feed on blue mussel (Mytilus edulis) spat or surf clams (Donax variablis) on the Atlantic coast of New Jersey. Evidence from Patagonia suggests that, for a reason that remains obscure, northward migration of Tierra del Fuego birds has become 1-2 wk later since the year 2000 and this has probably led to more Red Knots arriving late in Delaware Bay. Late arriving birds have been shown to have the ability to make up lost time by increasing their mass at a higher rate than usual provided they have sufficient food resources. However, late-arriving Red Knots failed to do this in 2003 and 2005 when egg availability was low. Although C. c. rufa Red Knots are spread thinly across a large area of the Canadian Arctic during the breeding season, for the rest of the year they occur mainly in large flocks at a limited number of key coastal wintering and staging sites. This review describes each of these sites and the threats the birds face ranging from oil pollution to disturbance and reclamation for development. Overall the goal of conservation activities throughout the flyway should be to increase the C. c. rufa population to at least the number of 25 yr ago - 100,000-150,000 by 2015. Given the uncertain genetic relationships between the three main wintering populations we suggest the following population increases: (1) Tierra del Fuego wintering population to 70,000-80,000 birds, (2) Brazilian wintering population to 20,000-25,000, (3) Florida wintering population to 20,000-25,000, and (4) other sites to 15,000-20,000. The means whereby such population increases might be achieved include: (1) recovery and maintenance of Delaware Bay horseshoe crab egg densities to levels sufficient to sustain stopover populations of all shorebirds including 100,000 Red Knots, (2) control impact of disturbance at all stopovers and wintering areas, particularly in high-importance, high-disturbance areas like Delaware Bay and the west coast of Florida, (3) by 2008, develop a system for the yearly determination of population demographic status based on counts, capture data, and resightings of banded individuals, (4) by 2008, determine the genetic and breeding status of the three main wintering populations (Tierra del Fuego, Maranhăo, and Florida), (5) by 2008, identify all important breeding locations in Canada and recommend protection needs and designations for the most important sites, (6) by 2009, complete site assessments and management plans for all important wintering areas and stopovers in the flyway, (7) by 2009, delineate and propose protection measures for key habitats within the main wintering areas of Maranhăo, Tierra del Fuego, and Florida, and develop management plans to guide protection, (8) by 2009, determine key southbound and northbound stopovers that account for at least 80% of stopover areas supporting at least 100 Red Knots, and develop coast-wide surveillance of birds as they migrate, and (9) by 2011, create a hemisphere-wide system of protected areas for each significant wintering, stopover, and breeding area. Also crucial to C. c. rufa's recovery is adequate funding to support the conservation actions and research needed. Despite the fact that much of the research, survey, monitoring, and conservation work has been carried out by volunteers and has been supported financially by state, federal government and non-government agencies, present funding levels are inadequate to sustain the work required.",,1-185,,36,,,Stud.

Thus, forest protection contributes to a diverse set of Sustainable Development Goals. The Yayu Coffee Forest Biosphere Reserve in the southwestern Ethiopian mountains (elevation 1100-2300 m above sea level) hosts an ancient coffee forest with high biodiversity and a large nutritional potential. It is managed in zones, and smallholder farmers can still use forest resources in the buffer and transitional zones in a sustainable manner. The forest is rarely used as a food source, although a large majority of the population in this area suffers from micronutrient deficiencies. This article investigates whether sustainable use of forest resources can contribute to the achievement of different Sustainable Development Goals by looking, through a gender lens, at which forest ecosystem services the community uses; traditional coffee farmers' perceptions of wild edible plants, agricultural territories, and labor divisions; and the constraining factors for forest conservation and sustainable agroforestry on private forest plots. Data for this study were collected through ethnography, transect walks, a sex-disaggregated household survey (n = 334), 32 semistructured interviews, 40 focus groups, and 13 key stakeholder interviews. One reason for neglecting the forest as a food source is that forests are considered a male territory, while vegetable raising and nutrition are female responsibilities. In addition, the collection of wild foods is perceived as a last resort during a famine and as a practice of tribal groups. Because coffee production represents the traditional livelihood source, farmers accept the need to conserve the forest, which is necessary to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. While it may have negative implications for food security, the absence of a tradition of collecting wild plants is positive news for forest conservation. © 2017 Nischalke et al.

We conducted a field campaign of tree species measurements to achieve this objective for species diversity estimation. Thirty-five field plots of 50 m × 20 m were established, and the most dominant tree species within the forest were identified. Other measurements, such as diameter at breast height (DBH ? 5 cm), tree height, and each plot’s GPS coordinates, were recorded. The following species diversity indices were estimated from the field measurements: Shannon–Wiener (H?), Simpson diversity index (D2), species richness (S), and species evenness (J?). The PlanetScope surface reflectance data at 3 m spatial resolution was acquired and preprocessed for species diversity prediction. The spectral/pixel information of all bands, except the coastal band, was extracted for further processing. Vegetation indices (VIs) (NDVI—normalized difference vegetation index, EVI—enhanced vegetation index, SRI—simple ratio index, SAVI—soil adjusted vegetation index, and NDRE—normalized difference red edge index) were also calculated from the spectral bands and their pixel value extracted. A correlation analysis was then performed between the spectral bands and VIs with the species diversity index. The results showed that spectral bands 6 (red) and 2 (blue) significantly correlated with the two main species diversity indices (S and H?) due to their influence on vegetation properties, such as canopy biomass and leaf chlorophyll content. Furthermore, we conducted a stepwise regression analysis to investigate the most important spectral bands to consider when estimating species diversity from the PlanetScope satellite data. Like the correlation results, bands 6 (red) and 2 (blue) were the most important bands to be considered for predicting species diversity. The model equations from the stepwise regression were used to predict tree species diversity. Overall, the study’s findings emphasize the relevance of remotely sensed data in assessing the ecological condition of protected areas, a tool for decision-making in biodiversity conservation. © 2024 by the authors.",,,,3,16,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,Biodiversity; biodiversity conservation; Biodiversity conservation; Conservation; Decision making; ecosystem services; Ecosystem services; Ecosystems; Forecasting; Forestry; Image resolution; Planetscope data; PlanetScope data; Regression analysis; Remote sensing; Shannon diversity; spatial resolution; Spatial resolution; Species diversity index; species diversity indices; species richness; Species richness; Spectral band; spectral bands; tropical forest; Tropical forest; Tropics; Vegetation; Vegetation index; vegetation indices,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Participatory mapping and semi-structured interviews were conducted with 52 stakeholders and 22 managers and scientists to identify ecological priorities and concerns across a large temperate MPA in Port Stephens-Great Lakes Marine Park, Australia. There were 19 iconic species of fish, dolphins, whales, and sea turtles that were the focus of ecological priorities and stakeholder interactions with the marine environment. Effectiveness of the current MPA management plan for addressing stakeholder priority and concerns, was assessed using GIS spatial modelling that created fuzzy-set species distribution models (SDMs) based on Traditional and Local Ecological Knowledge as well as scientific and citizen-science survey data. These spatial models for the iconic species across the MPA were then overlaid with ecological concerns of the stakeholders to create a spatial understanding of local threats, and priority areas for targeted management. Poor water quality from terrestrial primary sources was the main concern of stakeholders, more so than in-water threats such as poor fishing practices or impacts to iconic species. While local managers and scientists were relatively reluctant to answer interview questions, there was a general misalignment in approaches to iconic species management, especially for mobile and migratory species, and misunderstanding of stakeholder perceptions of threats. Participatory mapping of social-ecological values provides a method for stakeholders and decision-makers to better understand, discuss, and adapt marine spatial management approaches that support a diversity of conservation and management priorities. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,249,,Biol.

When designed and managed effectively, MPAs can enrich biodiversity, enhance ecosystem services and regulate stakeholder access. High quality dedicated monitoring programmes are essential to determine MPA effectiveness at the correct spatial and temporal scales; however, such programmes can be fraught with complexities and many MPAs have not yet implemented them following designation. There is, therefore, a clear need and opportunity for scientists to share and draw on collective experiences to help reduce barriers to successful MPA monitoring. This study synthesises lessons learned and challenges encountered in the English MPA monitoring programme, reflecting on solutions and future directions. Twenty-three MPA monitoring reports were reviewed and the key findings were extracted. The majority were centred around the need to consider monitoring approaches at the scale of each individual MPA, rather than adoption of generic ‘one-size-fits-all’ practices. Various challenges were found to be inherent, whilst some were prioritised for further development: MPA-scale measures of condition, fishing activity data, seabed imagery acquisition and analysis, DNA technologies, habitat mapping, and ecosystem approaches to MPA monitoring. This study highlights the benefits of strong multi-disciplinary partnerships for addressing the complex issues encountered in MPA monitoring programmes. We endorse further studies, technical advancements and a more holistic ecosystem approach to understanding human impacts on the benthos, thus optimising MPA management and positive conservation outcomes. © 2023",,,,,157,,Mar.

And, of these, macroinvertebrate communities and particularly the class Polychaeta are frequently used. Identifying these organisms takes time, money and specialized expertise to ensure correct identification to the lowest possible taxonomic level. Identification errors can lead to an erroneous assessment. The concept of taxonomic sufficiency has been proposed both to minimize errors and to save time and money. This study tested the usefulness of this concept in tropical estuaries in northeast Brazil. We selected two transitional systems with different degrees of human impact due to different land uses and different conservation systems: the Mamanguape estuary, which is in an environmental conservation unit for sustainable use, and the highly impacted, urban Paraíba do Norte estuary. The results clearly showed that nutrient concentrations were markedly higher in the Paraíba do Norte estuary in the dry season and that the composition of the polychaete assemblages differed between the two estuaries as well as along the spatial gradient of each estuary. The use of either genus or family level led to equivalent representation in each system in terms of taxon richness and both the Margalef and Shannon-Wiener diversity indices. Both taxonomic levels described similar changes in the polychaete assemblage along the estuarine gradients. Based on our findings, the use of a coarser taxonomic level (i.e., family) is a good option when the aim is to implement a monitoring program in tropical estuaries with the polychaete assemblages as one of the target groups. This time-efficient taxonomic resolution can help improve sampling designs and allow long-term monitoring studies without losing much vital information. © 2016 Elsevier Masson SAS",,50-58,,,77,,Acta Oecol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier B.V.,,,,Annelida; biomonitoring; Biomonitoring; Brazil; COASTAL; COMMUNITIES; concentration (composition); environmental conditions; environmental gradient; environmental management; estuarine dynamics; land use change; Mamanguape River; Paraiba; Paraiba do Norte Estuary; Polychaeta; polychaete; QUALITY ASSESSMENT; sustainability; Taxonomic sufficiency; TAXONOMIC SUFFICIENCY; taxonomy; tropical environment,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Built off the previous Millennium Development Goals, this new set of goals included 17 target areas, including, for the first time, an explicit global goal related to the ocean. In June 2017, at the United Nations Headquarters in New York City, a high-level conference surrounding SDG 14: Life Under Water convened. One dimension of goal 14 calls for 10% of the ocean conserved by the year 2020, through sub-target 14.5. That 10% fulfillment is often thought of in terms of areal coverage via marine protected areas (MPAs). While many objectives were laid out for this conference, one of the most prominent objectives was to build on existing partnerships and foster new collaborations. One way to achieve this target was through the creation of the voluntary commitment program. This “Call for Action” came from heads of state and government, as well as high-level representatives from organizations and stakeholder groups. Under this “Call for Action,” 22 actions related to goal 14 were listed for stakeholders to partake in, including an appeal to create voluntary commitments surrounding the oceans. As of September 2017, 1,395 voluntary commitments had been registered through the voluntary commitment portal process, spanning across organizations and disciplines. Here, we analyze these commitments, specifically those related to the fifth sub-target of SDG 14. Commitments were further refined through spotlighting on those under 14.5 that focused on different forms of resilience. The resulting 133 separate codes covered over 12 distinct forms of resilience. Through analyzing commitments, we map out future plans and predict different forms of MPAs. This research shows collaboration and co-production of knowledge linking across the SDGs.

Frameworks— including the IUCN protected area categories and The MPA Guide—offer tools towards evaluating an MPA’s objectives, types, Level of Protection, and potential effectiveness. However, the majority of MPAs exist in national waters, raising the question of how these frameworks apply in areas beyond national jurisdiction (ABNJ). We evaluated the existing ABNJ MPAs in the Antarctic designated through the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) using the two above mentioned frameworks. The newly released The MPA Guide, which complements guidance from the IUCN protected area categories, provides perhaps the most exhaustive framework as it seeks to evaluate implementation, enabling conditions, and outcomes. The CCAMLR MPAs ranged from Category 1A (for IUCN)/Highly Protected (for The MPA Guide) to Category IV (for IUCN)/Lightly Protected (for The MPA Guide) due to differences in management objectives and activities occurring within the zones of the MPAs. Given ongoing negotiations for a new international, legally binding treaty for high seas biodiversity, evaluating an MPA using these existing frameworks will prove useful to allow for a full comprehensive picture of an MPA and what it can expect to achieve. © 2022 by the authors.

Theory predicts that the high native diversity in pristine systems can hinder the establishment and/or the spread of non-native species through direct and indirect mechanisms (e.g. through competitive and/or predatory interactions). Here we tested whether predation provides higher resistance to invasion by the Percnidae crab Percnon gibbesi (H. Milne Edwards, 1853) in protected native communities, compared with exploited ones. Specifically, this study aimed to compare: (i) the abundance and diversity of potential predator assemblages of P. gibbesi; (ii) the predation pressure on P. gibbesi; and (iii) the density of this species in two protected and two unprotected sites along the northern Sicilian coast (Italy). The relative predation rate was assessed by manipulative tethering experiments conducted on two size classes of P. gibbesi using long and short tethers, both at protected and unprotected sites. The abundance and diversity of the predators of P. gibbesi and the relative predation rate on tethered crabs were higher at protected than at unprotected sites, independent of crab size and tether length. The density of P. gibbesi was significantly lower in protected compared with unprotected sites. These results suggest that the diversity and abundance of native predator assemblages directly affect the invasion success of P. gibbesi in the Mediterranean Sea. We provided experimental evidence that the restoration of predator assemblages confers ‘biotic resistance’ to no-take marine protected areas (MPAs) against P. gibbesi invasion. Our study confirms that no-take MPAs are effective in combating non-indigenous species (NIS) invasion, and that it is crucial to establish a long-term monitoring programme to limit the introduction of NIS and to control the spread of existing ones. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,1229-1237,,5,28,,Aquatic Conserv.

However, conservation planning often overlooks these important interactions. Here, we aim to demonstrate a new framework to include biotic interactions into Marxan. For that, we use freshwater mussels and fish interaction (as mussels rely on fishes to complete their life cycle) in the Douro River basin (Iberian Peninsula) as a case study. While doing that, we also test the importance of including biotic interactions into conservation planning exercises, by running spatial prioritisation analysis considering either: 1) only the target species (freshwater mussels); 2) freshwater mussels and their obligatory hosts (freshwater fishes); 3) freshwater mussels, fishes and their interactions. With this framework we found that biotic interactions tend to be underrepresented when the data on both freshwater mussels and fishes is not simultaneously included in the spatial prioritisation. Overall, the priority areas selected across all scenarios are mostly located in the western part of the Douro River basin, where most freshwater mussels and fishes still occur. Given the low overlap of priority areas identified here and the current Natura 2000 network, our approach may be useful for establishing (or enlarging) protected areas, especially in light of the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030. Also, this work may provide guidance for future habitat restoration and management of main threats to freshwater biodiversity. © 2022 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,864,,Sci.

Sargassum beds play a range of ecological roles in coastal waters, but their sustainability is threatened by pollution and reclamation within ASEAN countries with rapid economic growth. Before conservation initiatives can be implemented, it is necessary to establish their present distribution. These beds can be mapped using the noncommercial satellite, ALOS, which can provide multiband images using high spatial resolution optical sensors (sensitive to 10 m-2 plots), AVNIR-2. These images are of sufficient quality for examining coastal ecosystems and, in this study, for mapping the Sargassum beds in the waters off the coast of Sattahip, Chon Buri Province, Thailand. This coastal zone is a natural marine park reserve and protected from human activities such as fishery and reclamation. Biomass data were obtained in January, February, March, and December 2009 from quadrat sampling. The biomass of Sargassum aquifolium (Turner) C.Agardh at a bottom depth of 1 m and 1.5-2 m was determined to be 7.73 and 92.75 g dw m-2, while that of Sargassum oligocystum Montagne was found to be 44.05 and 87.97 g dw m-2, respectively. Ground truth data were obtained in February and October 2012 from serial images taken by manta tow. Supervised classification is a procedure for identifying spectrally similar areas on an image by identifying ""training"" sites of known targets and then extrapolating those spectral signatures to other areas of unknown targets. By applying this methodology, the Sargassum beds off Sattahip can be detected with an accuracy of about 70%. It is estimated that the error is caused by mixel effects of the bottom substrates in individual pixels, each of which covers an area of 10×10 m. Our results indicate that the images captured by ALOS AVNIR-2 are informative and useful for mapping the Sargassum beds in Southeast Asia. © 2014 by De Gruyter.",,367-377,,5,57,,Bot.

Management is imperative, and spatial prioritisation apportions the area of interest to inform investments of scarce conservation resources. Spatially delineated planning units used to make management decisions are typically large enough to contain significant natural variabilities, but the ecological significance of such variance is seldom considered in planning decisions. On coral reefs, the patchiness of habitat quality within planning units matters both ecologically and functionally. Here, we show that considering within-planning unit variance in spatial prioritisation influences the location and design of reserve networks. Studying Timor-Leste, we statistically model the average and variance in coral cover. We compare conservation priority areas for scenarios informed by coral cover and variance to a baseline scenario with the spatial prioritisation software Marxan. To further explain these differences, and to show the value of including coral variance as a metric in spatial prioritisation, we created a reserve quality score. We show that the similarity between reserve networks was only 57% for protection, and 44% for restoration objectives. For both objectives, the inclusion of cover variance improves the conservation benefit of management. This project has shown a novel way to target areas for restoration. These results demonstrate that not only is mean coral cover (and, by extension, reef condition) a key criterion in selecting marine conservation actions, but its variance must be considered in spatial conservation prioritisation to improve both the efficiency and benefit of management actions within marine reserve networks. © 2021",,,,,258,,Biol.

Studies discerning spatial patterns in marine management have disproportionately focused on global networks. This paper instead considers the single country context of Japan to illuminate within-country drivers of area-based conservation and fishery management. A dataset containing potentially relevant socioeconomic, environmental, and fisheries factors was assembled and used to model prefecture-level counts of marine protected areas (MPAs) and territorial use rights for fisheries (TURFs) throughout Japan's waters. Several factors were found to significantly influence the number of TURFs in a particular area, whereas MPA patterns of use remain largely unexplained. TURFs are frequently noted as more suitable for managing fisheries of low mobility species and our analysis finds greater use of TURFs in areas that rely heavily on benthic catch. The number of trading ports was also found to be positively related to TURF distributions, suggesting economic infrastructure may influence the use of this fisheries management tool. In-line with global analyses, MPA patterns of use were not found to be significantly related to any of the potential explanatory variables after correcting for the number of statistical comparisons that were carried out. Differences in our ability to model the use of TURFs and MPAs may arise due to the narrower objectives associated with the former (e.g., income, employment) in comparison to the often broad and varied goals that motivate use of the latter. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,59-67,,,82,,Mar.

These sources have been constantly used with biogeographical and conservation goals. However, their degree of accuracy in representing geographical biodiversity patterns remains poorly understood. Here, we compared both sources of information on species distributions to estimate global patterns of richness and species composition of threatened vertebrates on marine islands. Location: Global. Taxon: Terrestrial vertebrates. Methods: We gathered distributional data of all threatened terrestrial vertebrate species inhabiting 22,471 marine islands worldwide from GBIF and expert derived maps. Then, to assess strengths and biases from each source, using geographical information systems, we calculated and compared: (a) species richness per island, (b) general patterns of richness and (c) the number of shared species from both sources per island. Results: There were dramatic differences between the information derived from both data sources. The species richness estimated with expert-derived maps resulted in 10 more species per island, on average, than the estimations obtained from GBIF data. The mean proportion of shared species per island (between both data sources) was very low (3.1% of the species), and the general patterns of richness were markedly different. The most significant differences occurred in tropical areas and Europe. Conclusion: Differences between the two sources emerged from intrinsic biases: expert-derived maps tend to overestimate species' counts, whereas GBIF occurrences tend to do the opposite, except for some well-sampled regions where both data types converge. Our findings suggest that previous global assessments performed with these information sources on species distributions, especially those focusing on protected areas, should be carefully considered. © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,418-427,,2,50,,J.

Here, we report the results of a unique long-term telemetry-based monitoring programme for rehabilitated Antillean manatees Trichechus manatus manatus reintroduced into selected sites in north-east Brazil with the aim of reconnecting isolated relict populations. Twenty-one satellite-tagged rehabilitated manatees, 13 males and 8 females, were released into the wild from two sites between November 2008 and June 2013. Individual accumulation curves were plotted and home ranges were calculated through the fixed kernel method using 95% of the utilization distribution. The number and size of the centres of activity (COAs) were calculated using 50% of the utilization distribution. Manatees displayed a dichotomous pattern of movement, with individuals either characterized by sedentary habits or by much more extensive movements. Moreover, home-range size was not significantly influenced by gender, age at release or release site. COAs were strongly associated with sheltered conditions within reefs and estuaries, and also by the presence of freshwater and feeding sites. Our data confirm that manatee reintroductions in Brazil have the potential to reconnect distant sub-populations. However, pre-release identification of potential long-distance migrants is currently unfeasible, and further analysis would be required to confirm genetic mixing of distant sub-populations. © 2015 The Zoological Society of London",,235-246,,3,19,,Anim.

Abiotic factors strongly influenced trip level abundances, with more individuals per kilometer recorded during sunny days in the dry season, with temperatures between 25 and 30°C.

In February 2002, France, Italy and Monaco agreed to establish an international sanctuary for Mediterranean marine mammals. The resulting Pelagos Sanctuary encompasses over 87 500 km2 of the north-western Mediterranean Sea, extending between south-eastern France, Monaco, northwestern Italy and northern Sardinia, and surrounding Corsica and the Tuscan Archipelago. 2. The Pelagos Sanctuary illustrates how the tenets of Marine Protected Area (MPA) design can be reconciled with the dynamic nature of oceanic systems, because its spatial scale was defined by océanographie and ecological considerations, specifically the location of the Ligurian permanent frontal system. 3. By expanding protective measures beyond national waters, the Pelagos Sanctuary also sets a precedent for the implementation of pelagic protected areas in the high seas. The Pelagos Sanctuary will contribute to the conservation of the Mediterranean Sea at two scales: (i) locally, by protecting important cetacean foraging and breeding grounds in the Ligurian Sea, and by providing 'umbrella' protection to other marine predators in this area; and (ii) regionally, by empowering other conservation measures, such as the Specially Protected Areas Protocol of the Barcelona Convention and the wider goals of the Agreement on the Conservation of Cetaceans of the Black and Mediterranean Seas (ACCOBAMS). 4. However, because few cetacean species are resident within the Sanctuary, their effective long-term conservation will require large-scale management and coordinated monitoring throughout the Mediterranean basin.

The first class of service, called Fully Protected (FP), offers end-users a guarantee of survivability in the case of a single failure; all FP traffic is protected using either a 1:1 or 1 + 1 protection scheme at the WDM layer. The second class of service, called Best-Effort Protected (BEP), is not protected; instead restoration at the IP layer is provided. When a failure occurs, the network restores as much BEP traffic as possible, and thus BEP traffic does not receive any specific guarantees. The FP service class mimics what Internet users receive today. The BEP traffic is designed to run over the large amounts of unused bandwidth that exist in today's Internet. The motivation of this approach is to give carriers a mechanism for increasing the load carried on backbone networks without reducing the QoS received by existing customers. In order to support two such services, the logical links at the IP layer need to be carefully mapped onto primary and backup paths at the optical layer. We incorporate into our mapping problem a number of practical requirements that reflect constraints that carriers face and policies they want to enforce. For example, we allow the FP demand to be specified via a traffic matrix at the IP layer, we include an overprovisioning factor that specifies the portion of each link that must be left unused, and we incorporate a minimal fairness requirement on how the BEP traffic is allocated among connections. Our goal is to quantify how much BEP traffic can be carried in addition to the FP traffic, without impacting the protection quality of the FP traffic even in the case of failure, and without impacting the FP load. We provide two solutions, one is an optimal solution using an Integer Linear Program (ILP) model, and the other is an algorithm based on the Tabu Search (TS) methodology. Our heuristic algorithm allows us to solve this problem for large networks such as those spanning the continental US. We show that by having two such classes of service, the load on a network can be increased by a factor of 4-7 (depending upon the network). We illustrate that even with overprovisioning and fairness requirements (both of which reduce the total possible BEP load carried), we can still typically triple the total network load. We show that the location of the bottleneck can affect whether or not we see a difference in performance between 1:1 or 1 + 1 protection schemes. Our results illustrate the gain in terms of additional BEP load carried that can be obtained simply due to the upgrade of a single link. Our proposal provides carriers a new vehicle for generating revenue by extracting benefit from all the sources of unused bandwidth in networks. © 2005 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc.

The international legal frameworks discussed include the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea 1982, the Convention on Biological Diversity 1992, and Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries 1995. Subsequently, the Indonesian legislation analyzed includes the Act on Conservation of Living Resources and their Ecosystems, the Act concerning Fisheries, the Act concerning the Management of Coastal Areas and Small Islands, and the Act on Marine Affairs. The progress and control of the establishment of MPAs in Indonesia have now reached the target area of more than twenty million hectares. Apart from the success of these achievements, Indonesia also has problems in developing MPAs. Current problems related to MPA development include dualism of permits, conflicts over zoning and regional spatial planning, multiple interpretations of penal sanctions, and overlapping management authorities between government agencies. The solutions offered to solve these problems include synchronizing marine tourism permits, integrating zoning and spatial plans into one regional government regulation, imposing the most severe criminal sanctions for perpetrators of destroying marine ecosystems, and transfer of full authority over the management of seven marine protected areas to the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries. © 2021 Sriwijaya University.

Their ubiquitous occurrence, increasing volume, and ecotoxicological effects have made microplastic an emerging marine pollutant. Given the critical conservation roles of MPAs that aim to protect vulnerable marine species, biodiversity, and resources, it is essential to have a comprehensive overview of the occurrence, abundance, distribution, and characteristics of microplastics in MPAs including their buffer zones. Here, extensive data were collected and screened based on 1565 peer-reviewed literature from 2017 to 2020, and a GIS-based approach was applied to improve the outcomes by considering boundary limits. Microplastics in seawater samples were verified within the boundaries of 52 MPAs; after including the buffer zones, 1/3 more (68 MPAs) were identified as contaminated by microplastics. A large range of microplastic levels in MPAs was summarized based on water volume (0–809,000 items/m3) or surface water area (21.3–1,650,000,000 items/km2), which was likely due to discrepancy in sampling and analytical methods. Fragment was the most frequently observed shape and fiber was the most abundant shape. PE and PP were the most common and also most abundant polymer types. Overall, 2/3 of available data reported that seawater microplastic levels in MPAs were higher than 12,429 items/km2, indicating that global MPAs alone cannot protect against microplastic pollution. The current limitations and future directions were also discussed toward the post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework goals. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,316,,Environ.

The present study provides a comprehensive overview of the occurrence, abundance, and distribution of MPs potentially affecting MPA worldwide. Data on MP occurrence and levels in sediment and biota samples were collected from recent peer-reviewed literature and screened using a GIS-based approach overlapping MP records with MPA boundaries. MPs were found in 186 MPAs, with levels ranging from 0 to 9187.5 items/kg in sediment and up to 17,461.9 items/kg in organisms. Peaked MPs concentrations occurred within multiple-use areas, and no-take MPAs were also affected. About half of MP levels found within MPA fell into the higher concentration quartiles, suggesting potential impacts on these areas. In general, benthic species were likely more affected than pelagic ones due to the higher concentrations of MP reported in the tissues of benthic species. Alarmingly, MPs were found in tissues of two threatened species on the IUCN Red List.

Despite this, in recent years reports of MPAs affected by chemical contamination has grown. Therefore, this study addresses this critical issue assessing legacy and current chemical contamination in filter-feeder bivalves obtained in very restrictive no-take MPAs from Brazil. The detected pollutants encompass polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), linear alkylbenzenes (LABs), and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) like dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDTs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Despite protective measures, bivalves from nine MPAs exhibited high LABs (13.2–1139.0 ng g?1) and DDTs levels (0.1–62.3 ng g?1). PAHs were present in low concentrations (3.1–29.03 ng g?1), as PCBs (0.7–6.4 ng g?1), hexachlorobenzene (0.1–0.2 ng g?1), and Mirex (0.1–0.3 ng g?1). Regardless of the sentinel species, MPAs and management categories, similar accumulation patterns were observed for LABs, DDTs, PAHs, and PCBs. Based on the limits proposed by Oslo Paris Commission, the measured levels of PAHs, PCBs and were below the environmental assessment criteria. Such findings indicate the no biological effects are expected to occur. However, they are higher considering background conditions typically measured in remote or pristine areas and potential simultaneous exposure. Such findings indicate an influence of anthropogenic sources, emphasizing the urgency for monitoring programs guiding strategic management efforts to safeguard these areas. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,360,,J.

The purpose of this study was to map out and analyze the movements of illegal fishing vessels which operate within Área de Proteç ăo Ambiental Costa dos Corais (APACC), the largest Brazilian coastal MPA. A dataset from the National Program for Tracking Fishing Vessels by Satellite (PREPS) was used to detect the fishing vessels navigating the waters within the APACC over the period 2013–2020. We performed spatial density analysis with the aim of finding the most widely recorded hotspot regions of illegal fishing and also evaluated whether the illegal lobster-fishing occurred within or outside the fishing seasons. We found that there were 62 fishing vessels operating within the APACC and that 19 of them were engaged in some form of fishing activity in this area. Over the years 2013 and 2020, there were a total number of 15,353 detections (63.9% of the detections were identified as being potentially illegal). Fishing activities were defined as illegal when they occurred during the closed season, within an area where fishing is prohibited, or within less than 4 nautical miles from the coast. These fisheries mainly affect species with economic value, such as lobsters, snappers and groupers, and often involve the use of diving air compressors as a fishing technique. It is thus necessary to design better monitoring systems of these fishing fleets to prevent any conflicts over their operations and ensure an effective conservation of biodiversity. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,147,,Mar.

For instance, the degree of fear perceived by fishes targeted by fisheries is frequently higher in unprotected marine areas than in areas where some protection is provided. We systematically reviewed the literature on how fear, which we define as variation in escape behavior, was quantified in reef fishes. In the past 25 years, a total of 33 studies were identified, many of which were published within the last five years and nearly 40% of those (n = 13) focused on Indo-Pacific reefs, showing that there are still many geographical gaps. While eleven escape metrics were identified to evaluate fish escape, flight initiation distance (FID) was the most commonly employed (n = 23). FID was used to study different questions of applied and theoretical ecology, which involved 14 reef fish families. We also used a formal meta-analysis to investigate the effects of fishing by comparing FID inside and outside marine protected areas. Fishes outside MPAs had increased FID compared to those inside MPAs. The Labridae family had a significantly higher effect sizes than Acanthuridae and Epinephelidae, suggesting that fishes in this family may be indicators of effective MPAs using FID. We conclude that protocols aimed to quantify fear in fishes, which provide accurate assessments of fishing effects on fish escape behavior, will help gauge the compliance of marine protected areas. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,153-157,,,136,,Mar.

With increasing accessibility to information technologies, several surveys have begun to use Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to access FEK through participatory mapping. Scientific knowledge on migration of fishery resources is fundamental to properly support initiatives for fisheries management. However, the technologies available to study migration are usually expensive and require several years of sampling. Our objective was to use GIS to access FEK and to identify the migration patterns of five fishery resources in a subtropical coastal ecosystem of the Southern Atlantic Ocean: the white catfish - Genidens barbus, the fat snook Centropomus parallelus, the common snook - Centropomus undecimalis, the Atlantic spadefish - Chaetodipterus faber and the white shrimp - Litopenaeus schmitti. We interviewed 132 fishers in the Paranagu ' a estuarine complex and its adjacent coastal zone, Brazil. Of these fishers, 39 participated in the participatory mapping process. Our results based on FEK indicated that the migration of fishery resources is reproductive and occurs mainly in the later spring and summer when the species enter or exit the estuarine complex from coastal zone. The participatory mapping results indicated that G. barbus and C. faber migrate from the coastal zone to the estuary, while Centropomus species and the shrimp L. schmitti exit the estuary towards the coastal zone. The information generated by FEK and the methods used should be considered in future studies on ethno ecological research and to understand reproductive migration of these species.

Among these, Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) emerges as a pivotal approach for integrated management. Often, the establishment of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) and the application of MSP occur in parallel. Given the potential synergies, there is a need to better understand and address barriers to the adoption of MSP approaches for integrative conservation mechanisms. Using Săo Tomé and Príncipe as a case study, we illustrate how MSP was employed as an operational framework for establishing an MPA network. Drawing on the experiences of people directly involved in this co-design process, we reflect on the main challenges and opportunities in achieving social–ecological integration, and highlight recommendations for conservation practitioners and planners. Applying MSP was perceived to contribute substantially to multiple project goals, with some (e.g., incorporating perspectives and needs of vulnerable groups) more challenging to achieve. While MSP enhanced conceptual, disciplinary, methodological and functional integration, practical challenges in implementation hindered the extent to which each of these was achieved. Given international commitments to Blue Growth, high fisheries dependence and current patterns of change, developing effective integrative MSP approaches is essential for social–ecological resilience. © 2024 The Author(s).

Due to this reason, this area is vulnerable to oil spills from ships and offshore exploration. One of the most vulnerable areas to oil pollutant is the MPA (Marine Protected Area) of the Seribu Islands, particularly the region around Pari Island. The current study was part of IndoNACE (Indonesian seas Numerical Assessment of the Coastal Environment) project and aimed to assess the coastal vulnerability towards oil spill using a Geographic Information System (GIS). In this frame, a spatial analysis was conducted by overlaying coastline map, bathymetry map, and ecosystem distribution map. The overlay method was referred to the Environmental Sensitivity Index Guidelines created by NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration). The preliminary results showed that 38%, 24%, and 38% of Pari Island coastline were high, moderate, and low vulnerable towards oil spill pollution, respectively. The low and moderate vulnerable areas were located at the outer reef crest and inner lagoon. Meanwhile, the high vulnerable area was located at the vegetated shoreline which dominated by mangrove. Due to its biological value and its role in the environment, the vegetated area should receive priority protection against oil pollution. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,162,,,,,,,,Institute of Physics Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

Nonetheless, the management of Indigenous customary fisheries is one area where fisheries and biodiversity issues converge. This article examines the relationship between biodiversity and customary fisheries in an MPA context by investigation of the role and importance of Indigenous social contexts. Using case study examples from Australia, I explore the role of Indigenous social contexts in two dimensions: (i) management of traditional fisheries and (ii) Indigenous contribution to fisheries within an MPA. Findings demonstrate two narratives concerning social contexts, one of recognition and the other concerning Indigenous involvement in management. I conclude with a survey of Indigenous management initiatives within MPAs.

Interpret. of Mar. Cultur. Rsrc.,0387478612 (ISBN); 978-038747861-6 (ISBN),,,https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84892248722&doi=10.1007%2f978-0-387-47862-3_3&partnerID=40&md5=ea9dce6aec37d7e14973d9fee8fcfe2c,"There are probably few people, if any, who would not agree that interpretation of underwater cultural heritage is fundamental to good heritage management practice. However, there is room for discussion on who has the key responsibility for that interpretation. A common perception is that heritage managers own center stage and all interpretation should be either initiated or at least controlled by them. As a heritage manager of underwater cultural heritage for almost twenty years, I have often observed and been aware of the temptation of heritage management agencies and their representatives to operate almost as the sole player. Partnerships, comprised of corporations, individuals, and other government agencies, predominantly have been in support of projects ""owned"" by heritage management agencies. Clearly there is a place for heritage managers to be initiators, strategists, and leaders and these are essential characteristics of a good heritage management regime. What is worth exploring is how best to foster, encourage, support, and complement the skills, interests, and ambitions of ""other players"" - in other words, to work as facilitators. We need to place as much value on backing roles as we do on the lead role. While there are many circumstances where heritage management agencies can do the work themselves, there are times when as much strength may be gained by playing the role of a supporting actor. Three actions are required in order to achieve such a goal. First, looking outwards to identify the people and organizations who are the ""other players"" and what their goals, objectives, or current projects may be. Second, reaching inwards to identify which organizational goals or objectives of the heritage management agency complement those of the other players and what skills, perspectives, and other resources could be made available. The third step is to pass on those resources through appropriate delivery mechanisms and formal agreements. This approach is demonstrated through the policies and strategies employed by an Australian cultural heritage agency, the New South Wales Heritage Office's Underwater Cultural Heritage Program. The Heritage Office is located in the eastern Australian State of New South Wales and employs two maritime archaeologists. The office's Underwater Cultural Heritage Program is involved in the management of all submerged cultural heritage sites in coastal and inland waterways, including shipwrecks, port facilities, and other relics considered to be of heritage significance. This is a vast jurisdictional area. In terms of historic shipwrecks alone, there are nearly 1,800 potential sites, 273 of which have been located to date. This does not include submerged aircraft, inundated towns, and potential Indigenous sites. The State also has over 60,000 registered divers and is host to many dive shops and clubs. There is a great incentive to promote a positive environment for broad-based community and government involvement in management of underwater cultural heritage. This is reflected in a program that has a strong emphasis on education and promotion and the sharing of responsibilities with community groups, individuals, and government agencies. State Government agencies associated with the Heritage Office program include the New South Wales Marine Parks Authority, New South Wales Water Police, Manly Hydraulics Laboratory, and the New South Wales Maritime Authority. The sharing of responsibilities also extends to a Federal level. In Australia, the Federal Government requires State authorities with expertise in underwater cultural heritage management to request management responsibilities under the Historic Shipwrecks Act 1976; once requested those responsibilities then are delegated to the State. That Act is administered through the Department of Environment and Heritage under delegation to appointed Delegates in the States and Territories. One of the benefits of this arrangement is that it helps to foster interaction and cooperation with other Federal departments and agencies such as the Australian National Maritime Museum and the Department of Defence. In 1987, the Heritage Branch of the Department of Planning received increasing numbers of reports of shipwrecks uncovered on beaches during storms and found by divers. Historical archaeologists in the Heritage Branch had no experience in recording, investigating, or managing these maritime sites and, as a result, drew the New South Wales Government's attention to the need for engaging expertise to deal with shipwrecks and other underwater cultural heritage. The Underwater Cultural Heritage Program commenced the following year. The Director of the Department of Planning accepted delegated responsibilities under the Historic Shipwrecks Act. This supplemented existing State responsibilities for underwater cultural heritage under the New South Wales Heritage Act 1977. This delegation was transferred to the Director of the New South Wales Heritage Office (Figure 3.1) when it was established as a separate agency in 1996. Eighteen years since it started, a strong, innovative program continues to emphasize community involvement, public access to information, the responsibilities of other government agencies, and integration with the State's environmental planning framework. The Heritage Office is an independent New South Wales Government agency within the portfolio of the Minister for Infrastructure and Planning. The office provides heritage management advice to the Minister, the New South Wales Heritage Council, and the community. Through the Historic Shipwrecks Act delegation, the Heritage Office's underwater cultural heritage program is an extension of the National Historic Shipwrecks Program. Essentially, the program is involved with the management of all submerged cultural heritage sites in coastal and inland waterways, including shipwrecks, port facilities, and other relics. In the conservation, management, and interpretation of the State's underwater heritage, the Heritage Office: ? undertakes underwater archaeological surveys; • creates education and information programs; • supports participation of private individuals and organizations in the recording, assessment, and management of underwater sites; • provides advice to local, State, and Commonwealth governments and to government agencies about management of underwater cultural heritage (Underwater Heritage, 1996:4). The Heritage Office public outreach program is based on a belief that if people understand heritage they are better able to understand and assist preservation strategies. The Heritage Office's outreach projects include publications, lectures, training courses, wreck survey projects, a ""Wreck Spotters"" network of volunteers, and extensive liaison with the dive industry and Nautical Archaeology Society training courses under the auspices of the Australasian Institute for Maritime Archaeology (AIMA). Dive clubs, community groups, university students, and government agencies respond with their own contributions such as dive experiences, family oral histories, and photographic records. A direct result of outreach projects is a marked increase in support, involvement, and understanding of underwater cultural heritage.",,33-51,,,,,,,,,,,Springer US,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Out of the Blue: Pub.

The need to maintain them in their natural condition, reduce disturbance and conserve their biodiversity has been stressed in the face of severe drought, food insecurity and water stress conditions including inability to maintain constant hydroelectric power. However, without a clear picture of how many freshwater rivers, wetlands and lakes exist and their precise locality, size, sources and uses, it would be impossible for the authorities charged with their protection to put in place management or mitigation measures.Highland freshwater ecosystems of Kenya include Mount Kenya, Aberdares, Mau Forest, Mount Elgon and Cherangani Hills, which are referred to Kenya's water towers since they jointly supply most of the freshwater resources of the country. They are fragile ecosystems with streams flowing through montane forest belts and are critical reservoirs of biodiversity. They are characterized by high rainfall; steep slopes and erodible soils induce severe surface runoff, soil erosion and landslides. Sediments from erosion cause pollution of water in the streams. In countries with limited resources such as Kenya only small portions of rivers can be effectively conserved. It is imperative that significant effort is targeted at the upper reaches, because any conservation effort in the lower reaches of the river are easily negated by upstream disturbances.Their importance is primarily due to their ability to store and distribute water to lowlands and for ground water recharge. For example, 90% of dry season flow of the Northern Ewaso Ng'iro River is derived from the Mount Kenya. Montane areas in Kenya are also often associated with sacred sites and areas of cultural and social importance to the communities around them.Kenya's highland ecosystems face great anthropogenic threats due to deforestation and agricultural pressure. These areas have been ideal for tea and coffee plantations and human settlements. The Mau Forest, which is the largest indigenous forest in Kenya, has had vast areas cleared for settlements by immigrants, which in turn has caused reduction of flows of the Sondu Miriu River, which is dammed downstream for hydroelectric power. Even though sections of the Aberdares and Mount Kenya occur in protected areas, the lack of management and inability to patrol large areas has had led to various conflicts over land and water uses.Lowland freshwater ecosystems include those occurring on the lower sections of the eastwards-flowing rivers of Kenya including Rivers Tana, Athi, Northern Ewaso Ng'iro and the Ramisi. These are areas of low altitude and the rivers are slow moving and characterized by high sediment load, which is rich in nutrients and important for agriculture along the banks of these rivers. However, reductions and changes in flow regimes in the lowlands are more recently becoming a reason for concern. In the Tana River Delta, a large number of communities and biodiversity rely on the water for agriculture, pastoralism, fishing and other socioeconomic uses related to ecosystem services. The two main factors affecting river flows in lowlands are water abstractions and land-use change and intensification, both related to growing human populations.Climate change poses a further complication to both highland and lowland ecosystems due to changes in rainfall patterns reducing not only river flows but also the high rainfall events that cause unprecedented floods. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.",,199-218,,,16,,,,,,,,Elsevier B.V.,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Dev.

Biophysical indicators such as focal species abundance are often employed to assess the effectiveness of MPAs at meeting conservation objectives. We examined the dynamics of an Endangered beaked whale population 7 yr after the Gully MPA was established in 2004 offNova Scotia, Canada. Northern bottlenose whales forage in deep water such as the Gully submarine canyon. Several MPA restrictions were implemented on the Gully ecosystem beginning in 2004 to reduce anthropogenic impacts including ship traffic, underwater noise and entanglements. This study represents the first intensive northern bottlenose whale population assessment since the Gully became a MPA. Using photo-identification data collected in 2010 and 2011, we applied mark-recapture techniques to estimate the current population size of northern bottlenose whales on the Scotian Shelf as 143 animals (95% CI: 129 to 156 animals). We also used open population models to examine population trends, and investigated changes in the sex ratio since 1988. Our results suggest the population size and sex ratio have been stable since before MPA legislation was implemented, illustrating the resilience of this population and suggesting that the MPA objective of preventing population decline is being met. Continued monitoring of MPA efficacy is necessary; there is still the potential for future events, whether stochastic or related to climate change, to affect small populations such as the Gully northern bottlenose whales and put the success of MPAs to further test. © Inter-Research 2013.",,273-284,,3,21,,Endanger.

The Outer Thames Estuary, east England, was known to support almost half of the Great Britain wintering population of red-throated divers but delineating an SPA boundary there was not straightforward as existing boundary-setting methods did not perform well. The number and distribution of red-throated divers in the Outer Thames Estuary was determined using visual aerial survey methods. Bird observations were smoothed using kernel density estimation (KDE) and were combined to create a mean modelled density surface. A threshold density was identified using maximum curvature and an SPA boundary was drawn around all cells on the density surface with a density greater than the threshold density. The SPA boundary contained 6301 red-throated divers in an area of 3937km2, which was 77.5% of the estimated Outer Thames Estuary red-throated diver population in an area of only 38.9% of the study area. This boundary was adopted in 2010 when the Outer Thames Estuary SPA was classified. This method is suited to a species that is aggregated at medium to large scales and for which appropriate environmental covariates are lacking. It is relatively simple, which is advantageous when communicating methods to non-scientists, and provides an objective method for drawing an MPA boundary that is robust to challenge by stakeholders who may wish the MPA to be larger or smaller. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,15-21,,,156,,Biol.

These culls have been demonstrated to have substantial localized and adverse effects on a variety of marine organisms, and therefore there is an increasing need for an eco-friendly alternative that maximizes both beachgoer and marine organismal safety. In response to such culls, the novel magnetic barrier technology, the Sharksafe Barrier was developed and rigorously tested on a variety of sharks implicated in shark attacks (e.g. bull sharks – Carcharhinus leucas and white sharks – Carcharodon carcharias). Although these studies exhibited promise in shark swim pattern manipulation and C. leucas exclusion, research was lacking in assessing if the technology could serve as an alternative to shark nets, or more specifically, if it could exclude motivated C. carcharias from bait. Using a 13 m × 13 m square exclusion zone, this study aimed to test the C. carcharias exclusion capabilities of the Sharksafe Barrier while additionally assessing the long-term structural integrity of the system. After 34 trials and approximately 255 hours of total video collected over two years, data illustrate that all interacting C. carcharias were successfully excluded from the baited Sharksafe Barrier region, whereas teleosts and other small elasmobranch species were not. In addition, the long-term deployment potential of this barrier system held promise owing to its ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions. Therefore, with the successful exclusion of a second large shark species, C. carcharias, from a baited region, continued long-term research and implementation of this system at other locations should be considered to assess its viability and overall success as a bather and shark protection system.

Growing concern regarding the deteriorating state of the oceans and ineffective management of ABNJ has resulted in negotiations to develop an international legally binding instrument (ILBI) for the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction under UNCLOS. To inform these negotiations, we identified existing and emerging human activities and influences that affect ABNJ and evaluated management options available to mitigate the most pervasive, with highest potential for impact and probability of emergence. The highest-ranking activities and influences that affect ABNJ were fishing/hunting, maritime shipping, climate change and its associated effects, land-based pollution and mineral exploitation. Management options are diverse and available through a variety of actors, although their actions are not always effective. Area-based management tools (ABMTs), including marine protected areas (MPAs), were the only consistently effective option to mitigate impacts across high-ranked activities and influences. However, addressing land-based pollution will require national action to prevent this at its source, and MPAs offer only a partial solution for climate change. A new ABNJ ILBI could help unify management options and actors to conserve marine biodiversity and ensure sustainable use. Incorporating a mechanism to establish effective ABMTs into the ILBI will help deliver multiple objectives based on the ecosystem approach. © 2020 The Authors",,,,,187,,Ocean Coast.

Often, predictable broad oceanographic features are used to define open ocean habitats. But what exactly, constitutes the habitat-the water, or the species that live there? Complicating matters, species in the open sea are often highly mobile. Here, we argue that mobile marine organisms provide the structure-forming biomass and constitute ""habitat"" in the open ocean.

The growing urgency to manage marine ecosystems more effectively has led to increasing application of spatial management measures (marine protected areas [MPAs], sectoral [e.g. fishery] closures and marine spatial planning [marine plans]). Understanding the methodologies used to evaluate the effectiveness of these measures against social, economic, and ecological outcomes is key for designing effective monitoring and evaluation programmes. Methods: We used a pre-defined and tested search string focusing on intervention and outcome terms to search for relevant studies across four bibliographic databases, Google Scholar, 39 organisational websites, and one specialist data repository. Searches were conducted in English and restricted to the period 2009 to 2019 to align with current UK marine policy contexts. Relevant studies were restricted to UK-relevant coastal countries, as identified by key stakeholders. Search results were screened for relevance against pre- defined eligibility criteria first at title and abstract level, and then at full text. Articles assessed as not relevant at full text were recorded with reasons for exclusion. Two systematic map databases of meta-data and coded data from relevant primary and secondary studies, respectively, were produced. Review findings: Over 19,500 search results were identified, resulting in 391 relevant primary articles, 33 secondary articles and 49 tertiary reviews. Relevant primary articles evaluated spatial management measures across a total of 22 social, economic and ecological outcomes; only 2.8% considered all three disciplines, with most focused exclusively on ecological (67.8%) or social (13.3%) evaluations. Secondary articles predominately focused on ecological evaluations (75.8%). The majority of the primary and secondary evidence base aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of MPAs (85.7% and 90.9% respectively), followed by fisheries closures (12.5%; 3.0%) with only 1.8% of primary, and 6.1% of secondary, articles focused on marine plans or on MPAs and fisheries closures combined. Most evaluations reported within primary articles were conducted for a single site (60.4%) or multiple individual sites (32.5%), with few evaluating networks of sites (6.9%). Secondary articles mostly evaluated multiple individual sites (93.9%). Most (70.3%) primary articles conducted principal evaluations, i.e. basic description of effects; 29.4% explored causation; and 0.3% undertook benefit evaluations. Secondary articles predominately explored causation (66.7%) with the remainder conducting principal evaluations. Australia (27.4%), the USA (18.4%) and the UK (11.3%) were most frequently studied by primary articles, with secondary articles reporting mostly global (66.7%) or European (18.2%) syntheses. Conclusions: The systematic map reveals substantial bodies of evidence relating to methods of evaluating MPAs against ecological outcomes. However, key knowledge gaps include evaluation across social and economic outcomes and of overall merit and/or worth (benefit evaluation), as well as of: marine plans; networks of sites; real-time, temporary or seasonal closures; spatial management within offshore waters, and lagoon or estuary environments. Although the evidence base has grown over the past two decades, information to develop comprehensive evaluation frameworks remains insufficient. Greater understanding on how to evaluate the effectiveness of spatial management measures is required to support improved management of global ocean resources and spaces.",,,,1,10,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000660555300001,,,,,,,BIODIVERSITY; CONSERVATION OUTCOMES; FISHERIES; Fishery closures; Fishery exclusion zones; Marine management; Marine protected areas; Marine reserves; Marine spatial planning; Maritime planning; MPAs; No-take zones; PERFORMANCE; Policy evaluation; PROTECTED AREAS; PURPOSE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

These parks, therefore, have a definite socio-economic impact on adjacent communities, although little is known about this impact. The main aim of this study was to determine the socio-economic impact of Africa's oldest marine park, namely Tsitsikamma National Park, which forms part of the newly created Garden Route National Park. This was done by conducting three surveys during April 2008: a visitor's survey (156 respondents), a community survey (132 respondents) and a business survey (11 respondents). We found that the park has a positive economic impact on the surrounding area and that the community exhibits a favourable attitude towards Tsitsikamma National Park. The results also differed when compared to similar studies conducted at other national parks in South Arica and one of the main reasons for this was that the park is located in a touristic area. For a greater impact however, the park should expand its marine activities, while communication with the local community could also be improved. Conservation implications: Good community relations and ecotourism activities are important components of good conservation practices. This research indicates that tourism activities not only generated funds for conservation, but also benefited the local communities of Tsitsikamma National Park. The positive attitude of local communities makes conservation of biodiversity more sustainable. © 2010. The Authors.

Globally, tourism and recreational CES are among the most relevant economic and social activities, with ecotourism in particular growing rapidly in places with high cultural heritage and high biodiversity, such as many protected areas. This study used a combination of GIS-based methods and interviews in a Marine Protected Area (MPA) in Brazil called Extractive Reserve Acaú-Goiana to investigate whether its users (i.e., visitors and local residents) prefer some CES over others and whether recreational coastal activities can be affected by different factors and human-caused stressors, such as 'scariness', 'unpleasantness', and 'noisiness'. All assessed CES were identified by respondents to be provided in the MPA. ‘Aesthetic values’ and ‘social relations’ were the most commonly identified CES, whereas ‘scariness’ and ‘unpleasantness’ were the main stressors. Respondents also showed a preference for specific areas within the MPA, such as beaches and mangroves. Relying on users to identify hotspots themselves, in addition to assessing the ecotourism potential of recreational coastal activities, can support the development of innovative public strategies targeting not only tourists, but also local communities. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,50,,Ecosyst.

Inclusive decision-making between the local community and the government in co-management is vital to the success of MPAs. Consequently, understanding community awareness and perception of the coral reef ecosystem is an essential aspect for transformative change in the sustainable use of coral reef ecosystem services. This study aimed to assess and compare the community's awareness and perceptions of coral reef ecosystem benefits in the face of different management options between Diani Chale and Kisite-Mpunguti MPAs in south coast Kenya. We collected qualitative and quantitative data through 16 focus group discussions (n = 147) and household surveys (n = 412 in Diani Chale and n = 413 in Kisite-Mpunguti MPAs) on communities living in villages within 5 kilometers of the shoreline of the selected MPAs. The findings revealed that 77.6% (640/825) of the respondents were aware of coral reef ecosystems in their area. There was a higher awareness of coral reefs among respondents in government-managed Kisite-Mpunguti MPA (84.5%, 349/413) compared to pseudo-community-managed Diani Chale MPA (70.6%, 291/412). A higher proportion of respondents in Kisite-Mpunguti relied on coral reef resources for their livelihoods (p < 0.01). Moreover, a significantly higher percentage of respondents from Kisite-Mpunguti agreed or strongly agreed that local people derive economic benefits from the establishment of MPAs compared to Diani Chale (67.6% versus 52.2%, p < 0.001). Furthermore, more respondents from Kisite-Mpunguti expressed positive support for the establishment of more government-managed MPAs (55.69% versus 32%), and Locally Managed Marine Areas (53.9% versus 38.86%). Based on these findings, inclusive support by local communities towards coral reef conservation is recommended to increase their participation in positive environmental behaviors in Kenya and other countries in the Western Indian Ocean region. Additionally, improved political goodwill is required to support the creation of more and larger areas under marine protection, especially in the Diani Chale area. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,248,,Ocean Coast.

Moramo Bay is one of the regional Marine Conservation Areas (MCA) in Indonesia which is categorized as a Marine Tourism Park based on the Decree of the Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries of the Republic of Indonesia Number 22 of 2021. This bay is located in Southeast Sulawesi Province and has an area of 21,902.34 ha, consisting of a core zone, limited-use zone, and other zones. The ecosystems found in Moramo Bay include coral reefs, mangroves, and seagrass. The coral reef ecosystem in this area covers 2,528.19 ha with good visual conditions of the reef. The present study aims to provide detailed information concerning the condition of live hard corals and reef fishes, including abundance, diversity, evenness, dominance, and water quality by using point intercept transect (PIT) and underwater visual census (UVC) methods. The study was carried out at 7-10 meters of seawater depth in May-October 2023, focusing on both the core and limited-use zones and consisting of three study stages: field observation, data collection, and data analysis. Data collection covered identifying coral growth through literature study before performing descriptive analysis. The study revealed the percentage of live hard coral cover of 53%, referred to as a good category, and other variable percentages including dead coral (4%), dead coral with algae (9%), soft coral (4%), fleshy seaweed (1%), rubble (17%), sand (8%), silt (1%) and sponge (2%). Furthermore, 25 families of reef fishes were found, belonging to 48 genera, 102 species, and 2,364 individuals, with an ecological index of abundance of 1.05 ind.m-2, diversity (2.86), evenness (0.83), and dominance (0.10). The coral reef health data issued by the present study implies that Moramo Bay MCA may be preserved as an alternative area for coral reef studies associated with global issues, for instance, climate changes.

Mangrove condition at a marine conservation area at Moramo Bay, Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 24: 6536-6544. The mangrove ecosystem is one ecosystem that supports biodiversity at the Marine Conservation Area (MCA) in Moramo Bay, Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia. The area of the mangrove ecosystem in Moramo Bay is approximately 1,933.09 hectares, with an MCA of 1,281.46 hectares. This ecosystem plays an important role in protecting the coastline from erosion due to the seawater filtration process in the bay. This study aims to provide information regarding the status of mangrove ecosystem in the MCA, including species, density, basal area, dominance, and canopy cover percentage, which was used to state the standard criteria for mangrove ecosystem damage. The methods involved a 10×10 m˛ transect and hemispherical photography using a fisheye lens with a 180° field of view. Seven species of mangrove were found in Moramo Bay MCA, including Bruguiera gymnorrhiza (L.) Lam. (dominating with a basal area value of 136,963.66), followed by Sonneratia alba Sm. (153,111.90), Rhizophora mucronata Lam. (113,708.04), Rhizophora stylosa Griffith (28,869.95), Xylocarpus moluccensis (Lam.) M.Roem. (9,326.59), Avicennia marina (Forssk.) Vierh. (3,419.46), and Rhizophora apiculata Blume with a basal area value of 1,690.11. The density of mangrove vegetation was in the criteria of rare to dense, with approximately 800-4,200 individuals per hectare. Furthermore, the mangrove ecosystem in the MCA was found to be damaged up to good condition, with canopy cover percentage values of 45.85%-98.88%. The condition of the mangrove ecosystem in Moramo Bay MCA preserves a basic deliberation for the Indonesian government for adaptive and sustainable management of conservation areas. Protection, preservation, and utilization of mangrove ecosystems should be maximized in all coastal areas to improve the quality of biodiversity. © 2023, Society for Indonesian Biodiversity.

Despite the rapid expansion of marine protected areas (MPAs) globally, the paucity of shark-monitoring data on large scales (100s–1000s km) means that the effectiveness of MPAs in halting shark declines remains unclear. Using data collected by baited remote underwater video systems (BRUVS) in northwestern Australia, we developed generalized linear models to elucidate the ecological drivers of habitat suitability for juvenile sharks. We assessed occurrence patterns at the order and species levels. We included all juvenile sharks sampled and the 3 most abundant species sampled separately (grey reef [Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos], sandbar [Carcharhinus plumbeus], and whitetip reef sharks [Triaenodon obesus]). We predicted the occurrence of juvenile sharks across 490,515 km2 of coastal waters and quantified the representation of highly suitable habitats within MPAs. Our species-level models had higher accuracy (? ? 0.69) and deviance explained (?48%) than our order-level model (? = 0.36 and deviance explained of 10%). Maps of predicted occurrence revealed different species-specific patterns of highly suitable habitat. These differences likely reflect different physiological or resource requirements between individual species and validate concerns over the utility of conservation targets based on aggregate species groups as opposed to a species-focused approach. Highly suitable habitats were poorly represented in MPAs with the most restrictions on extractive activities. This spatial mismatch possibly indicates a lack of explicit conservation targets and information on species distribution during the planning process. Non-extractive BRUVS provided a useful platform for building the suitability models across large scales to assist conservation planning across multiple maritime jurisdictions, and our approach provides a simple for method for testing the effectiveness of MPAs. © 2016 Society for Conservation Biology",,635-645,,3,31,,Conserv.

The initial positive attitude of local professionals for the NMPANS has eroded due to the unsatisfactory fulfillment of expectations for socioeconomic development. Fishermen expressed dissatisfaction with, mistrust toward, and a reluctancy to communicate with the NMPANS's management body. They believe that the fishery areas have decreased in actual geographic area because of the prohibitive measures; fish stocks are declining; compensation for damage to fishery equipment by the Mediterranean monk seal and for the prohibitive measures should be provided; and stricter enforcement of regulations should take place. On the other hand, tourism operators, who organize trips for tourists to the NMPANS, unanimously reported direct economic benefits. Furthermore, there was a disparity in the perception of socioeconomic benefits derived from the NMPANS between governmental bodies and local stakeholders. The governmental bodies and the nongovernmental organization MOm-Hellenic Society for the Study and Protection of the Monk Seal postulated that there had been considerable socioeconomic benefits for the local community of Alonissos due to the establishment of the NMPANS, whereas the local nongovernmental organization Ecological and Cultural Movement of Alonissos claimed benefits were scant. Tourists (domestic and foreign) believe that the NMPANS is not the main attraction to Alonissos Island but is part of a composite, including serenity, aesthetic beauty, and small-scale tourism development, which can turn Alonissos Island into an ideal eco-tourism destination; a common aspiration for both the tourists and the local community by general consensus. The aim of the NMPANS to integrate conservation and development lies in (1) the effectiveness of the NMPANS management body in formulating a strategic management plan that would accommodate stakeholders' interests and aspirations and (2) a national policy of conservation and enhancement of natural resources with consistency and continuity. Quantitative assessment of the socioeconomic effectiveness of the Mediterranean MPAs using a common methodology would facilitate the identification of intraregional variation and better planning for the network of MPAs in the Mediterranean. © 2008 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,847-866,,5,42,,Environ.

Due to their size, they can be ingested by organisms directly (from the environment) or indirectly (with their prey). The objective of this study was to analyze the occurrence, abundance, concentration, and chemical nature of MPs present in the gastrointestinal tract of two fish species, Patagonotothen guntheri and Patagonotothen ramsayi, both of which are key in the food web of the Marine Protected Area Namuncurá/ Banco Burdwood (MPA N/BB). The analyzed species presented high values of MPs per individual (MPs/ind.) and occurrence compared to other studies. P. guntheri tended to have a lower number of MPs/ind. and occurrence than P. ramsayi (P. guntheri: 2.50 ± 1.93 MPs/ind., 82.50 %; P. ramsayi: 3.93 ± 2.91 MPs/ind., 90.60 %). While fibers were the predominant MPs in both species, P. ramsayi had a greater number of fragments and a greater variety of MPs chemical composition than P. guntheri. The prevailing chemical composition was cellulosic material (cellulose and cellulose mixed with polyamide and polyester). Synthetic fibers and fragments such as polyester (PET), alkyd resin, polyurethane, polyethylene, polyacrylic fiber and poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate-co-vinyl chloride) were also found. Although both species have a generalist diet, the differences found may be due to the fact that P. guntheri has benthopelagic feeding habits while P. ramsayi has demersal-benthic. Our study is the first report on the presence and characterization of MPs in organisms relevant to food webs in the Southwest Atlantic. © 2023",,,,,267,,Aquat.

Existing parameters used to evaluate the effectiveness of MPAs are summarised. Two-hundred and twenty-two publications were reviewed. We identified the most commonly used study subjects and methodological approaches. Most of the studies concentrated on biological parameters. Peer reviewed studies were based on control vs. impact design. BACI and mBACI designs were used in very few studies.

The National Programme of Environment and Natural Resources 2001-2006, as well as the guidelines established by the National Development Plan 2001-2006, established the foundation for preparing the Internal Strategic Plan of PROFEPA, which included the mission, vision and objectives, as well as the lines of action to be developed by each area of the Agency; the more important management and impact indicators were added, including annual goals for most appropriate monitoring. As a result of the strategic planning process, the institutional structure was adapted, emphasising the creation of the juridical sub-agency, in order to strengthen the authority of PROFEPA on procedural and criminal matters; without this important role inspection and surveillance efforts are pointless. In a similar manner, the structure was modified by changing the traditional theme division for an operational division consistent with the flow of administrative actions. In this way, the Environmental Justice Administration Programme 2001-2006 has established bases to move towards an expeditious environmental justice administration that guarantees law enforceability without prejudice. In such a manner, the Programme maintains full consistency with and relation to priorities regarding growing with quality, social and human development, and order and respect established in the National Development Plan, as well as with the strategic objectives of the National Programme of Environment and Natural Resources 2001- 2006; it is based on rigorous internal and external exercises and includes the basic reforms to pursue its strict compliance. The objectives and goals of the Programme are ambitious and their achievement, without any doubt, would constitute a compulsory reference for the environmental justice administration in Mexico. However, it should be mentioned that the Programme will face undeniable problems; for example, PROFEPA has been invested with multiple, varied and complex powers on inspection and surveillance matters. In order to communicate a sense of this, the following facts are pertinent. It has under its surveillance 142 million hectares of forest surface, of which 55 million are forest and rainforest, and it must verify 4,000 licences for forest exploitation. Likewise, we have identified 100 critical forest zones, in 25 states, of which nine require immediate attention since they are very hard to oversee.11 In addition to this, it has to take care of 127 Land and Marine Natural Protected Areas, 3,328 Units of Management and Exploitation of Wildlife, about 11,000 km of coastline in addition to several protected, rare, threatened or endangered marine species, as well as survey the import and export of specimens and products of wildlife at the 65 major border crossings in the country. PROFEPA has to verify compliance with more than 1,000 authorisations of environmental impact granted each year and detect any projects lacking such authorisation. As for industry, there are 34,000 establishments within the jurisdiction of the Agency in diverse lines of business such as chemicals, petroleum, cement, automobiles and tanneries, about 5,500 of which are highly risky or dangerous. It is also the responsibility of the Agency to verify that new engines comply with rules regarding noise and emissions to the atmosphere, in the 32 automobile plants in operation within the country. It should be noted, to conclude this summary, that PROFEPA receives approximately 5,000 environmental complaints each year, which must be responded to expeditiously and through the carrying out of inspections to verify the facts or omissions reported. Facing this immense amount of work, efforts are aimed at those areas considered a priority, such as resources and environmental services, as well as at those areas where critical levels and processes have been found to involve non-compliance with the rules. Nevertheless, it is important to make two points about the context of this Programme. The challenge we are facing in the matter of law enforceability is enormous, even though some progress has been achieved by recent governments, results have not always been positive, and in some areas the results have even been negative. For this reason, complying with the unavoidable principles that recognise reality and the responsible exercise of self-criticism, it is realistic to state that the environmental situation in Mexico, specifically the situation involving natural resources, is almost apocalyptic, and this has happened because we have allowed this to occur. Therefore, the challenge is to make intention consistent with action. On the other hand, the national and international economic context should be considered where the programme is being disclosed: at the beginning of the present federal administration, there was a worldwide recession whose negative effect on public resources is still evident, and that, in the specific case of PROFEPA, affects the most ambitious and optimistic budgetary forecasts. In times of scarcity of resources, such as the one we are experiencing, we must do our best to increase efficiency, and then the challenge is to make more with less in order to comply with the commitment to protect the environment and to exploit natural resources in a sustainable manner: our survival depends on this. Within this framework of ideas, the Environmental Justice Administration Programme (Programmea de Procuracion de Justicia Ambiental; PPJA) 2001-2006, is a reliable tool to ensure greater efficiency in environmental protection, based upon more efficient surveillance in compliance with environmental rules. For this purpose five strategic objectives have been established: • To stop the destruction of our natural resources and reverse the processes of environmental deterioration. • To strive to provide full access to the general public to an expeditious administration of environmental justice. • To achieve informed and responsible participation of members of society and its organisations in overseeing and achieving compliance with environmental law. • To strengthen the presence of the Agency and extend its territorial coverage with federal criteria. • To create a modern and efficient institution, operating with honesty, transparency and reliability, thereby disclosing a new image to society. To achieve its objectives and targets, PROFEPA will implement two essential strategies. One is aimed at inspecting and looking after compliance with environmental regulations applicable to industry and natural resources exploitation. The other strategy intends to encourage voluntary schemes and mechanisms to comply with environmental regulations in industry and the exploitation of natural resources. For this purpose, a rational decentralisation of duties has been considered, with coordination between state and local governments, and the agreement to achieve participation and support from society. In the programme, lines of action have been defined and aimed at pursuing each of the five main objectives, as well as specific actions with annual goals, which will make their monitoring and assessment easier. It should be noted that the actions and goals were scheduled based on a budget appropriate to the priorities identified. Performance indicators were designed for each field of action of the Agency, including an outstanding group of strategic indicators that have been formulated as an institutional commitment, and they will allow the assessment of progress in the following strategic goals: • To stop illegal cutting in critical forest areas, through surveillance operations along with Alternative Programmes of Sustainability (Programmeas Alternativos de Sustentabilidad; PAS) with the intervention of the National Forest Commission (Comision Nacional Forestal). • To recover the forest critical areas with insurgency problems and to implement Alternative Programmes of Sustainability (PAS) with the intervention of the National Forest Commission. • To increase the percentage of priority natural protected areas where an inspection and surveillance programme is being applied. • To reduce the number of areas considered as critical for natural resources. • To increase the level of compliance with environmental legislation in connection with the exploitation of natural resources. • To inspect the industries carrying out high-risk activities. • To increase the level of compliance with environmental legislation by sources of pollution, through inspection and surveillance. • To include new sectors to the Environmental Audit Programme (Programmea de Auditoría Ambiental), especially tourism, electric power and exploitation of natural resources. • To increase the number of profitable establishments included in the Environmental Audit Programme. It should be stressed that the Environmental Justice Administration Programme (PPJA) presents clear synergies with other 16 sectorial, institutional, strategic, regional, special and multi-sectorial programmes, as well as with the national crusades derived from the National Programme of Environment and Natural Resources 2001- 2006, since such a programme has established plans to oversee compliance with legislation exercised by the regulatory areas of SEMARNAT through different authorisations, licences and permits. For this reason, it is important to increase and strengthen the coordination of efforts among all the sector areas in order to achieve success in these initiatives. In the operation of the programme, it is essential that all participants agree to work together, including SEMARNAT, other federal governmental agencies and other governmental sectors, as well as non-governmental organisations. Without the agreement of all these participants, it will be difficult for this programme to have the essential consensus and support for its successful operation. The importance of the PPJA 2001-2006 lies in the fact that environmental protection and the search for ways towards sustainable development are directed at guaranteeing the survival of the human race and achieving a better quality of life for society in general. © 2007 IOS Press.

Design/methodology/approach: A discrete choice experiment (DCE) was used among the Maasai community based in the villages and towns near the Maasai Mara National Reserve in Kenya. The attributes included type of tourism accommodation, location of tourism accommodations, types of access roads (tarmac or marram), tourist numbers and desired land-use options (between tourism development, livestock grazing and agriculture). A DCE analysis with hierarchical Bayes estimation was performed. Findings: It revealed that the introduction to land-use restrictions and the location of tourism accommodations were the most important attributes for the respondents, with average importance values of 30.36% and 24.02%, respectively. A significant less important attribute was the types of access roads with an average importance of just 8.38%. Cluster analysis revealed widespread heterogeneity in preferences. Research limitations/implications: The survey-based DCE was conducted in the Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya, and therefore may not be relevant in other contexts. The focus was also only on the residents’ preferences. The findings broaden the knowledge on tourism developments and residents’ support for development and management of protected areas. Practical implications: For policymakers, conservation practitioners and tourism businesses, this study provides a source of reference for understanding the development preferences of the Maasai community. In general, the study contributes to a better understanding of local communities in relations to tourism development and residents’ support for developments and management of protected areas (PAs). Originality/value: This study fills the gap in the literature on tourism development and residents’ support for developments in PAs by presenting some limits of acceptable and desirable use of PAs among a community that has a complex coexistence with a wildlife tourism destination. It provides an alternative perspective for future research by examining residents’ choice towards destination development and preferences for infrastructure and tourism superstructure development using an experimental approach. © 2024, Cynthia Richter Ojijo and Robert Steiger.",,,,,,,Tour.

Interview and questionnaire methods were used to collect the needed information from locals and environmental experts. The locals include fishermen from four (4) coastal locations in the Niger Delta while experts include relevant government institutions, researchers, and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). Data collected from the survey were analyzed and used to determine the state of 18 PESTLE sub-criteria, and Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) was used to find the sub-criteria weights (importance). The stakeholder’s perceptions on potential MPAs were analyzed and compared with Relative Importance Index (RII). Results show stakeholders agree more on the prioritization of MPA implementation criteria and expected benefits but agree less on the MPA objectives and beneficiaries. Environmental prospects for MPAs in the Niger Delta have the highest performance score and vice versa for the political and technical capacity for MPA implementation and management. The study concludes Niger Delta has potentials for MPAs which can be achieved through addressing the identified weaknesses and threats. © 2022 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.",,106-123,,2,50,,Coast.

Directed fishing on large piscivorous fish can reduce predation on prey and thereby benefit those populations, but incidental take of prey species in these fisheries may negate or even reverse the benefit. Whether benefits from reduced predation outweigh the costs of increased fishing will depend on the relative strength of each mortality source and the sensitivity of the population to mortality at different life stages. In the California Current, predatory lingcod (Ophiodon elongatus) populations recovered rapidly from fishing exploitation over the past two decades, while recovery of some rockfish species (Sebastes spp.) has been slow, mainly because of low natural productivities. One management tool has been the adoption of rockfish conservation areas (RCAs) that prohibit bottom contact fishing gear. Because lingcod also inhabit RCAs, fishers have been unable to catch their sustainable lingcod quotas. Therefore, we explored the conditions under which opening RCAs to a selective lingcod fishery might permit rockfish recovery despite the potential bycatch. We developed a joint equilibrium model of the two populations and analysed scenarios to assess the sensitivity of the model's predictions to key uncertainties. The model suggests a wide range of fishery and ecological conditions under which a lingcod fishery may not harm rockfish populations. However, a sensitivity analysis indicated that the range of fishing scenarios where rockfish are not harmed is highly sensitive to assumptions regarding the nature of the trophic linkage between lingcod and rockfish. We conclude that consideration of trophic interactions may reveal new fishing opportunities that meet both ecological and human goals, but precise predictions of the outcomes will require more detailed models and adaptive management. © 2016 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea 2016.

We tested the hypothesis that the west coast fishing industry is competing for the remaining stocks of anchovy and sardine with the largest colony of Vulnerable Cape Gannets (Morus capensis) along the Atlantic coast. Using GPS-tracking of the birds, echo-sounding of pelagic fish, and vessel log books, we located overlap areas between bird foraging ranges, pelagic fish distribution, and fishing activities. We then compared fish catches by gannets and vessels within their joint foraging zones. In October 2007, purse-seine fishing grounds and gannet foraging areas overlapped by only 13%. However, for a 1-month period, the amount of fish removed from this area by purse-seine boats amounted to 41% of the food requirements of the 72,000 gannets breeding on Malgas Island (25% of the world population). The fishery's catch in this area is significant in terms of its potential impact on gannets, but comprises only 3.6% of total fishery catch. Based on this finding, the rapidly decreasing size of the gannet colony and the stated objectives of South Africa's Marine Living Resources Act of 1998, the case for considering and experimenting with at-sea 'no-take' areas for the purse-seine fishery is strong. Efforts to establish whether 'no-take' fishing zones increase food availability for top predators is an important next step in conservation of the southern Benguela Ecosystem. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

Livelihoods consist of agriculture, plantation, animal husbandry, and fishery activities. The number of fisher households is 1576 with 3278 fishers. From 2239 units of fishing gear, 75% of them are intended to utilize tuna and tuna-like fishes as their daily livelihood. Coral reef fisheries relatively limited numbers, so that reef fish exploitation is somewhat low pressure. Therefore, the area has a high fish diversity index and likely to be a diving tourism object. An area of 2500 Ha of Marine Protected Area (MPA) Banda Sea was established in 1977. Napoleon wrasse, Cheilinus undulatus Ruppell, 1835, one of the biggest coral fish had been classified by The IUCN Red List as endangered species is somewhat easy to find in this area. From our observation, the species are commonly found in shallow coral reef waters. The estimated density was 7.13 individuals per hectare with a size between 10 - 90 cm total length. The descriptive analysis was applied by utilizing several observations in 2018 through diving operator surveys, interviews, and digital literature reviews. This study aimed to estimate the potential benefit of initiating watching tourism as the prospect of sustainable socio-economic services. Therefore, it expects to be a new economic alternative livelihood for Banda small island coastal community. With the combination of existing MPA and Napoleon wrasse presence, this study would strongly contribute to the MPA economy and ecology values and its surroundingswaters under SDG's 14 to maximize the conservation area benefits. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,800,,,,,,,,IOP Publishing Ltd,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

OECMs have been criticized for ambiguity, lack of criteria for evaluation and, thereby, inconsistent implementation. Nevertheless, many coastal states aim to evaluate current management actions as candidates for OECMs and count them toward numerical biodiversity conservation goals. Successful implementation requires careful examination of biodiversity benefits and estimation of the social impacts of such actions. There are numerous fisheries restricted areas within the Icelandic Exclusive Economic Zone, some with designated biodiversity conservation goals, whereas the Icelandic Act of Nature Conservation (60/2913) has rarely been used in marine waters. In the current study, complementary methods are used to broadly examine stakeholder views on the efficiency of current legislation, and future policy, to achieve numerical goals on biodiversity conservation. Despite documenting broad willingness of stakeholders to protect ocean space, gaps in legislation and communication are identified both through survey responses and in interviews with key informants. As a first study to document stakeholder perceptions on using fisheries legislation for the purpose of biodiversity conservation, the results have relevance for future policy on reporting fisheries legislation as OECMs, understanding stakeholder perceptions on different actions and, finally, to inform policy on stakeholder involvement, and outreach campaigns, as governments move forward to meet marine conservation goals. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,170,,Mar.

The present land coverage (15.15%) of Nigeria's protected areas is highly degraded and far away from the target 4 of the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (2016 - 2020). This is connected to the fact that protected areas constitute the largest food base for host communities' survival in Nigeria. Even, despite the rural-urban drift in search of a white-collar job, a larger percentage of Nigeria's populations are still situated in the rural areas. The participation of the local communities in biodiversity conservation, their wellbeing, culture and livelihood have always been a subject of interest to the stakeholders (local communities, park management, and conservationist) in protected area management due to the role in the sustainability of forest resources. However, three drivers of host communities' dependence on protected areas in Nigeria were identified - socio-cultural, economic and institutional drivers. The option of human displacement from the protected areas had not yielded any positive result over the years. In conclusion, buffer zone policies have to be formulated and inculcated by affected protected areas authorities into their management framework. Also, adoption of community-based participatory forest management, initiation of forest enrichment programmes in degraded protected areas and harvesting of Non-timber Forest Products (NTFPs) should be encouraged to play diverse contributory roles in the improvement of rural livelihoods. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.

We used heterogeneous reef seascapes as a model system to examine the potential interaction of reserves and mangrove-reef connectivity and compared the magnitude of these effects across the western Pacific Ocean. Location: The tropical and subtropical western Pacific, including the Solomon Islands, Great Barrier Reef and Moreton Bay, Australia. Methods: We quantified fish densities on coral reefs (38 sites) and in mangrove forests (19 sites) across seven marine reserves and twelve unprotected control locations. Fish assemblages were in seascapes supporting either adjacent reefs and mangroves or isolated reefs. For each reserve-control comparison, we evaluated the potential interactive effects of habitat connectivity on species richness and densities of harvested species, functional groups, families and individual species. We then examined the influence of spatial variation in reserve attributes, seascape heterogeneity and latitude on the magnitude of reserve-connectivity effects. Results: Snappers (Lutjanidae) and rabbitfish (Siganidae) were more abundant on reserve reefs close to mangroves in all regions. These interactive effects also enhanced the abundance of sweetlip (Haemulidae), bream (Sparidae), harvested fish, herbivores and piscivores and species richness in two of the three regions examined. Spatial variation in the magnitude of reserve-connectivity effects was explained by differences among reserves in seascape variables (i.e. area of mangroves and reef, duration of mangrove inundation and distance to rivers) but not by reserve attributes (i.e. age, size, poaching) or latitude. Main conclusions: Habitat connectivity improved the effectiveness of reserves across the western Pacific Ocean. We recommend that heterogeneous landscapes with high-habitat connectivity should be viewed as high priorities for conservation. By improving our understanding of connectivity, and through its explicit incorporation into conservation, we may have greater success in restoring biodiversity and functioning of ecosystems. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,1040-1049,,9,22,,Global Ecol.

The extent of connectivity is, therefore, predicted to also influence the outcomes of conservation initiatives, such as marine reserves. Here we review the published evidence about how important seascape connectivity (i.e. landscape connectivity in the sea) is for marine conservation outcomes. Location: Global. Methods: We analysed the global literature on the effects of seascape connectivity on reserve performance. Results: In the majority of cases, greater seascape connectivity inside reserves translates into better conservation outcomes (i.e. enhanced productivity and diversity). Research on reserve performance is, however, most often conducted separately from research on connectivity, resulting in few studies (<5% of all studies of seascape connectivity) that have quantified how connectivity modifies reserve effects on populations, assemblages or ecosystem functioning in seascapes. Nevertheless, evidence for positive effects of connectivity on reserve performance is geographically widespread, encompassing studies in the Caribbean Sea, Florida Keys and western Pacific Ocean. Main conclusions: Given that research rarely connects the effects of connectivity and reserves, our thesis is that stronger linkages between landscape ecology and marine spatial planning are likely to improve conservation outcomes in the sea. The key science challenge is to identify the full range of ecological functions that are modulated by connectivity and the spatial scale over which these functions enhance conservation outcomes. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,Mar-15,,1,25,,Global Ecol.

Consequently, enhancing resilience has become a primary objective for conservation. Nature reserves are a favored management tool, but we need clearer empirical tests of whether they can impart resilience. Catastrophic flooding in early 2011 impacted coastal ecosystems across eastern Australia. We demonstrate that marine reserves enhanced the capacity of coral reefs to withstand flood impacts. Reserve reefs resisted the impact of perturbation, whilst fished reefs did not. Changes on fished reefs were correlated with the magnitude of flood impact, whereas variation on reserve reefs was related to ecological variables. Herbivory and coral recruitment are critical ecological processes that underpin reef resilience, and were greater in reserves and further enhanced on reserve reefs near mangroves. The capacity of reserves to mitigate external disturbances and promote ecological resilience will be critical to resisting an increased frequency of climate-related disturbance. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,3050-3058,,10,20,,Global Change Biol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,animal; Animals; Anthozoa; Australia; catastrophic event; coastal zone; Conservation of Natural Resources; coral reef; Coral reefs; Coral Reefs; Disturbance; Ecological resilience; ecosystem; Ecosystem; ecosystem resilience; environmental disturbance; environmental protection; extreme event; fish; Fisheries; fishery; Fishes; Flood impacts; flooding; Floods; herbivory; Herbivory; marine park; Marine reserves; recruitment (population dynamics); Seascape connectivity; water quality; Water Quality; weather; wetland; Wetlands,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Negative attitudes lead to non-compliance with environmental regulations, making it harder to achieve MPA management and governance objectives. However, the underlying drivers of negative attitudes to MPAs are complex, contextual, and generally poorly known. Here, we test to what extent social, economic, and political characteristics of stakeholders are associated with positive and supportive attitudes towards the implementation of good governance principles in one of Brazil's largest sustainable use MPAs. We conducted 331 face-to-face interviews with stakeholders from different social groups, applying a questionnaire exploring attitudes towards MPA governance based on Lockwood's governance principles. We found that educational level, income, sociopolitical engagement, and attendance at environmental meetings were all associated with positive attitudes towards principles of good MPA governance. Artisanal fishers, especially Shellfishers, generally had more negative attitudes towards governance principles. Good governance is critical for effective management, ensuring that decisions are made transparently and accountably, that stakeholders are engaged and involved in decision-making, efforts are coordinated and resources are used effectively, and that the legal framework is strong and enforced. Our findings highlight the importance of addressing underlying economic and educational inequalities among local stakeholders in addition to targeted environmental education. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,248,,Ocean Coast.

A total of 42 collection expeditions were conducted, the sampling was conducted at five collecting sites distributed within the boundaries of Mata de Itamacaoca, upper Munim River basin. Diversity indices were calculated and generalised linear models (GLMs) were employed to assess differences in species richness, diversity and evenness depending on season and location in relation to the reservoir dam wall. In order to visualize fish community differences, non-metric multidimensional scaling (nMDS) and a one-way PERMANOVA was used to understand whether factors of site, season and location to the dam wall had an effect on fish community compositions. A total of six orders, 13 families, and 23 fish species were found, and the order with the highest species richness, considering all reaches, was Characiformes followed by Cichliformes. The most abundant species was Nannostomus beckfordi, while Pimelodella parnahybae and Hoplerythrinus unitaeniatus were the rarer species sampled. There were no alien invasive species collected within the study area. Species richness was significantly higher below the dam wall, but there were no other significant differences in diversity indices with regards to season or location.

These estuaries, separated only by 20 km, are very productive systems with high metabolic rates that strongly influence the cycle of nutrients and the ecology of NW Iberian coast. This study aims to understand the propagation of Minho and Lima estuarine plumes in order to investigate the effects of buoyancy on the interaction between dissolved substances emitted by their outflows and its impacts on regional productivity. Using the Delft3D model, a deeper analysis of the intrusion and dynamics of outflows of these adjacent estuaries was performed, through the simulation of trajectories of passive tracers emitted in each estuary, considering river discharges and wind stress. The results show an interaction between these estuaries, both during the summer and the winter seasons. Both estuarine outflows tend to move southward in response to the predominant north wind in the summer season, while in winter the opposite is observed. The northward outflows tend to be transported very close to the coastline, while the southward and westward is diverted offshore. The estuarine outflows interaction promotes exchanges of physical-chemical properties and nutrients between these estuaries, generating ecological advantages for the smaller one. These results showed that the numerical model used accurately describes the dynamical processes in these estuarine systems, being essential for a proper assessment of the effects of forcing drivers and providing relevant information for coastal zone planning and management. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,222,,J.

In recent years, there has been a heightened interest in EBM tools that allow testing of alternative management options and help identify tradeoffs among human uses. End-to-end ecosystem modeling frameworks that consider a wide range of management options are a means to provide integrated solutions to the complex ocean management problems encountered in EBM. Here, we leverage the global advances in ecosystem modeling to explore common opportunities and challenges for ecosystem-based management, including changes in ocean acidification, spatial management, and fishing pressure across eight Atlantis (atlantis.cmar.csiro.au) end-to-end ecosystem models. These models represent marine ecosystems from the tropics to the arctic, varying in size, ecology, and management regimes, using a three-dimensional, spatially-explicit structure parametrized for each system. Results suggest stronger impacts from ocean acidification and marine protected areas than from altering fishing pressure, both in terms of guild-level (i.e., aggregations of similar species or groups) biomass and in terms of indicators of ecological and fishery structure. Effects of ocean acidification were typically negative (reducing biomass), while marine protected areas led to both ""winners"" and ""losers"" at the level of particular species (or functional groups). Changing fishing pressure (doubling or halving) had smaller effects on the species guilds or ecosystem indicators than either ocean acidification or marine protected areas. Compensatory effects within guilds led to weaker average effects at the guild level than the species or group level. The impacts and tradeoffs implied by these future scenarios are highly relevant as ocean governance shifts focus from single-sector objectives (e.g., sustainable levels of individual fished stocks) to taking into account competing industrial sectors' objectives (e.g., simultaneous spatial management of energy, shipping, and fishing) while at the same time grappling with compounded impacts of global climate change (e.g., ocean acidification and warming). © 2018 Olsen, Kaplan, Ainsworth, Fay,Gaichas, Gamble, Girardin, Eide, Ihde, Morzaria-Luna, Johnson, Savina-Rolland, Townsend, Weijerman, Fulton and Link.",,,,MAR,5,,Front.

To establish a baseline from which to monitor the effects of spatial protection on reef fish trophic ecology and track future ecosystem-level changes, we quantified temperate reef fish densities, size, biomass, diets and isotopic signatures at nine sites nested within two fished and one five-year old marine protected area (MPA) on the northwest coast of Canada. We calculated rockfish (Sebastes spp.) community and species-specific niche breadth for fished and protected areas based on ?13C and ?15N values. We found that rockfish community niche width was greater inside the MPA relative to adjacent fished reefs due to an expanded nitrogen range, possibly reflecting early changes in trophic interactions following five years of spatial protection. Our data also demonstrated that the MPA had a positive effect on the ?15N signature of rockfish (i.e., trophic position), but the effect of rockfish length on its own was not well-supported. In addition, we found a positive interaction between rockfish length and ?15N signature, such that ?15N signatures of rockfish caught within the MPA increased more rapidly with body size than those caught in fished areas. Differences in rockfish size structure and biomass among fished and unfished areas were not clearly evident. Species of rockfish and lingcod varied in trophic and size responses, indicating that life-history traits play an important role in predicting MPA effects. These results may suggest early changes in trophic behavior of slow-growing rockfish due to predation risk by faster growing higher trophic level predators such as lingcod inside MPAs established on temperate reefs. Consequently, spatial protection may restore both the trophic and behavioral roles of previously fished consumers earlier and in measurable ways sooner than observable changes in abundance and size. © 2019 Olson et al.",,,,10,14,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,"animal; animal community; Animals; AREAS; Article; biomass; Biomass; body size; Body Size; Canada; carbon; Carbon; COMMUNITY STRUCTURE; CONSERVATION; Conservation of Natural Resources; consumer; CONTEXT; coral reef; Coral Reefs; diet; ecological niche; ecology; ecosystem; Ecosystem; environmental protection; fish; FISHERIES; food chain; Food Chain; growth, development and aging; habitat selection; IMPLEMENTATION; life history; limit of quantitation; marine environment; MARINE RESERVES; metabolism; nitrogen; Nitrogen; nonhuman; organismal interaction; Perciformes; population abundance; population density; Population Density; PREDATION; procedures; REEF; seashore; Sebastes; signal detection; SIZE; spatial analysis; stomach content; trophic level",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

With the aim of proposing criteria for conservation plans that would include ecosystem services and biodiversity, a Geographic Information System (GIS)-based approach was designed to estimate and map the value of the biodiversity and ecosystem services. The actual protected areas, namely, coastal ecosystems and Cantabrian evergreen-oak forests, were found to be important for the overall biodiversity and included some important portions of the other services. The non-protected natural forests, such as the mixed-oak, beech and riparian forests, are biodiversity hotspots, and they contribute to the carbon storage and water flow regulation services. Thus, even though these areas are small, their inclusion in conservation proposals should be considered. The pine and eucalyptus plantations contribute to ecosystem services but have negative effects on biodiversity and cause environmental problems. In contrast to the plantations of fast-growing species, the increase in broadleaf plantations will exhibit a positive trend due to the benefits they provide. Our study highlights that the inclusion of ecosystem services in conservation planning has a great potential to provide opportunities for biodiversity protection; however, strategies of conservation based only on specific ecosystem services may be detrimental to the biodiversity and may cause other environmental problems. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.",,01-Sep,,,289,,For.

Populations of native mammals are declining at an alarming rate in many parts of tropical northern Australia. Fire regimes are considered a contributing factor, but this hypothesis is difficult to test because of the ubiquity of fire. Aims. This preliminary study investigated relative abundance and richness of small mammals on a gradient of fire regimes in the Uunguu Indigenous Protected Area (north Kimberley, Australia). Methods. Species were sampled using 40 unbaited camera traps, positioned for a year on 20 transects crossing the rainforest-savanna boundary at locations with comparable environment and geology but varying fire history. The relative importance of the factors `fire frequency', `late dry season fire frequency', `time since burnt' and `vegetation type' as predictors of the number of small mammal species and detections was tested using Spatial Generalised Linear Mixed Models to account for spatial autocorrelation. Key results. Nine species of small mammals were observed. Mammals were more abundant and diverse in locations with low overall fire frequency, which was a better predictor than late dry season fire frequency or time since burnt. The model including fire frequency and vegetation explained the highest proportion of total variation in mammal diversity (R-2 = 42.0%), with most of this variation explained by fire frequency alone (R-2 = 40.5%). The best model for number of detections (R-2 = 20.9%) included both factors. Conclusions. In the north Kimberley, small mammals are likely to be more abundant and diverse in areas with low fire frequency. Implications. This natural experiment supports the theory that frequent fires are contributing to the decline of small mammals observed across northern Australia.",,218-229,,3,48,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000592631600001,,,,,,,Australian tropics; BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION; CENTRAL ARNHEM-LAND; DECLINE; FAUNA; FERAL CATS; FIRE MANAGEMENT; fire regimes; KAKADU NATIONAL-PARK; mammals; POPULATIONS; PSEUDOREPLICATION; rainforests; savannas; TROPICAL SAVANNAS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

During marine conservation planning, logistical constraints preclude seabird surveys covering the complete area of interest and spatial distribution of seabirds is frequently inferred from predictive statistical models. Increasingly complex models are available to relate the distribution and abundance of pelagic seabirds to environmental variables, but a comparison of their usefulness for delineating protected areas for seabirds is lacking. Here we compare the performance of five modelling techniques (generalised linear models, generalised additive models, Random Forest, boosted regression trees, and maximum entropy) to predict the distribution of Balearic Shearwaters (. Puffinus mauretanicus) along the coast of the western Iberian Peninsula. We used ship transect data from 2004 to 2009 and 13 environmental variables to predict occurrence and density, and evaluated predictive performance of all models using spatially segregated test data. Predicted distribution varied among the different models, although predictive performance varied little. An ensemble prediction that combined results from all five techniques was robust and confirmed the existence of marine important bird areas for Balearic Shearwaters in Portugal and Spain. Our predictions suggested additional areas that would be of high priority for conservation and could be proposed as protected areas. Abundance data were extremely difficult to predict, and none of five modelling techniques provided a reliable prediction of spatial patterns. We advocate the use of ensemble modelling that combines the output of several methods to predict the spatial distribution of seabirds, and use these predictions to target separate surveys assessing the abundance of seabirds in areas of regular use. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,94-104,,,156,,Biol.

Spawning ground protection and rehabilitation is required to reverse historical degradation and improve fisheries prospects alongside conservation goals. Although spawning habitat has been characterised in tidal rivers, there has been no previous study of spawning in non-tidal rivermouths that are open to the sea. We assessed seven non-tidal rivers over 4 months using census surveys to quantify spawning activity, identify environmental cues, and characterise fundamental aspects of the biogeography of spawning grounds. Results include the identification of compact spawning reaches near the rivermouths. Spawning events were triggered by periods of elevated water levels that were often of very short duration, suggesting that potential lunar cues were less important, and that rapid fish movements had likely occurred within the catchment prior to spawning events. Spawning grounds exhibited consistent vertical structuring above typical low-flow levels, with associated horizontal translation away from the river channel leading to increased exposure to anthropogenic stressors and associated management implications for protecting the areas concerned. These consistent patterns provide a sound basis for advancing protective management at non-tidal rivermouths. Attention to flood management, vegetation control, and bankside recreational activities is needed and may be assisted by elucidating the biogeography of spawning grounds. The identification of rapid responses to environmental cues deserves further research to assess floodplain connectivity aspects that enable fish movements in ephemeral flowpaths, and as a confounding factor in commonly used fish survey techniques.  © 2022 Journal Compilation",,140-153,,2,28,,Pac.

However, very little is known about the response of insect assemblages to seabirds, despite the important ecological and functional role of insects within all ecosystems. Here we aimed to assess the response of beetle communities to the influence of a Yellow-legged gull (Larus cachinnans) colony on a small Mediterranean island. The study was conducted on Bagaud island, which is a fully protected reserve within Port-Cros National Park (France), where the yellow-legged gulls are the most densely concentrated. The experiment was designed on a 12-plot transect extending from a low gull-induced-disturbance area to the highly disturbed centre of the colony. Beetle communities were sampled three times during spring and autumn 2001. Beetle patterns across the gradient were analyzed with respect to species ordination, species richness, abundance, and biomass. A total of 255 beetle specimens from 28 species and 15 families were collected. Surprisingly, species richness and the abundance of beetles were not significantly affected by gulls. However, ordination of beetle assemblages showed that there was a marked change in species composition along the gradient of gull influence. The gull colony also affected distribution of feeding-types of beetles. Tenebrionidae species, in particular, seemed to draw strong benefit from such disturbance. Tenebrionidae species, which are polyphagous, markedly increased at the expense of phytophagous species, which decreased. Collected species were likely to be found in other, gull-free environments and were not strictly endemic to Mediterranean islands.

We reviewed 510 peer-reviewed publications (period 1998–2014) focusing on ecological aspects of N2k, with the aims of identifying key research gaps and proposing future research priorities for improved conservation success. We categorized the articles by spatial scale, biogeographical regions, taxonomic groups, habitat types, and the analytical methods used. The majority of studies were performed in single N2k sites or at the regional level within countries. The Mediterranean region had the greatest number of publications and the terrestrial Black Sea, Macaronesia, Pannonian and Steppic regions were overrepresented in relation to their total area and to the area of N2k sites that they comprised. Grasslands, freshwater and wetland habitats were overrepresented in comparison to their area within N2k. Plants were the most commonly studied taxonomic group and quantitative empirical studies dominated. Future N2k research should address knowledge gaps by directing more efforts towards: 1) the Boreal region, 2) alpine, agricultural, forest and marine habitats, and 3) underrepresented taxonomic groups such as reptiles, amphibians, lichens and fungi. For enhanced evaluation and realization of the conservation potential of N2k, more studies will need to encompass large spatial scales and utilize modelling approaches to effectively address future climate and land-use changes. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,216-227,,,200,,Biol.

Yet many PAs are weakened by people-PA conflicts resulting from the separation of natural resource protection from human considerations. Research at Masoala National Park in Madagascar focused on the following questions: (1) What are the factors that influence residents' perceptions of the Park and restrictions on use of natural resources in the Park area? (2) How do residents of communities on the periphery of the Park perceive and interact with Park staff, and what factors influence interactions and perceptions? A multi-method qualitative research approach was taken, including individual and focus group interviews, participant observation, archival research, and an environmental education and communication workshop. From July to December 2001, 119 semi-structured individual and group interviews were conducted with a total of 181 Masoala National Park staff, employees of non-governmental conservation organizations and community residents, focusing on two villages on the periphery of Masoala National Park. Factors found to influence the perceptions of the Park held by residents living in the Park periphery included the history of Park management, the degree of awareness of Park existence, types of interactions with Park staff and actual or potential benefits received from the Park. Inconsistency in past and present Park management goals has led to community confusion regarding the Park programme. Residents were largely aware of the Park's existence but were unfamiliar with its goals. Pressures on Park natural resources came from a variety of sources and occurred across a range of spatial and temporal scales, some of which were outside the control of Park managers. A conceptual framework represented relations between Park staff and community residents. Understanding people-PA interactions and perceptions can help guide future PA management strategies to increase conservation effectiveness, through efforts such as environmental education and communication programmes. © 2005 Foundation for Environmental Conservation.",,156-164,,2,32,,Environ.

Our aim was to determine the biological quality present at a forested and protected river basin based on vascular plant communities' field examination and cartographic and aerial information analysis. We have transformed vegetation maps into biological quality maps, readily interpreted in terms of conservation state for land management. We have tested the index along an anthropized but protected area in the Atlantic Iberian Peninsula (Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve -and Natura 2000 site, Basque Country) individually assessing 158 vegetation fragments included in ten quadrats of 25 ha each. A comparison of land use distribution between exotic coniferous plantations and native forests showed a ratio ~11:1, and Quercus robur native forests have been fragmented and reduced to small patches, mostly below one ha (73.7% of fragments). The ratio real to potential cover revealed occupation below 8% of potential territory, confined to altitudes and slopes over 200 m asl and 30% respectively. Mean biological value of the basin (38.4% of maximum) correlated to conifer plantation surface and native forest emerged as the only vegetation unit attaining index values above 50%. A quantitative approach to determine whether local lowland oak forest could be considered at favourable conservation status involved studying co-variation between index values and fragment size by means of asymptotic models that would provide a maximum expected biological value associated to a minimum required surface (72.9% for ?2.5ha). We have obtained the highest index values (77.1%) for forest patches ?5.0 ha, although fragments over that threshold accounted for barely 2.9% of the basin. Oak forests are far from showing a favourable conservation status, revealing that actual protection policies provide little shelter to native forest where silvicultural policies rule the landscape. © 2019 Universidad Complutense.

It was discovered that the three islands have lost 0.4%, 1.6%, and 9.3% of their landmass, respectively. The notable increase in sea level rise, which has risen 6.2 mm/year since 2010, has emerged as the primary driving factor in the magnitude of erosion by altering the wave transformation patterns in shallow waters. This enables the wave trains to maintain more energy and intensify their height in surf zones, particularly during the dry season, where the wave height has increased by 12%. At the same time, the intensity of longitudinal currents has increased due to the new wave dynamics, leading to changes in the coastlines. Areas characterized by a coastal geomorphology of terraces and beaches, such as Tesoro Island, were found to be the most affected, unlike the cliffs of Grande and Rosario Islands. The study also revealed a lack of policies and concrete actions aimed at mitigating erosion in the coral islands of the Colombian Caribbean. Thus, a set of guidelines is proposed as a starting point to address this issue. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,239,,Ocean Coast.

The debate has led to the biophysical analysis of ""human-nature"" relationships. This analysis is an important way to determine human impacts on the Earth, based on the colonization of nature and social activities that consider matter and energy flows through appropriation, transformation, distribution, consumption, and excretion. Tourism has appropriated and characterized various types of ecosystems that represent the use of a finite set of spatially distributed resources. The observation of marine mammals, such as whales, in natural protected areas attracts many tourists each year, and this activity indirectly generates carbon dioxide that is released into the atmosphere. This carbon emission, which is accompanied by the increased scale of tourism, may hamper global conservation goals. We describe the use of the Ecological Footprint tool as a sustainability indicator of humpback whale-watching activity in Bahía de Banderas, Marietas Islands National Park, in Nayarit, México, to examine the global impact of this tourist activity on ecosystems. Calculations are based on the Ecological Footprint method using the consumption/productivity ratio - converting costs of goods and services into consumption of resource inputs and then translating these to surface units. The findings show that the mean whale-watching footprint in the study area is 46.85 ha. This figure is low when compared to other estimated footprints of ecotourism activities in the world. The discussion examines how the results of this type of analysis can be used to improve tourism planning with a view to promoting sustainability. © Coastal Education & Research Foundation 2013.",,1445-1451,,6,29,,J.

Beyond national jurisdictions, international institutions such as the General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM) work towards canalizing a regional consensus that fishing practices should evolve to better support the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. In this context, Fisheries Restricted Areas (FRA) are proposed as effective management measures to contribute towards increasing fisheries sustainability in the region that can be considered, under some conditions, as Nature-based Solutions (NbS); however, how to operationalize their framework remains unclear. In this study, based on combined ecological and fisheries criteria, we identify and prioritize six potential priority areas for management (PAMs) in the western Mediterranean Sea. They are specifically aimed at the protection and recovery of Essential Fish Habitats and the conservation of Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems, whilst requiring limited adaptation of fisheries practices due to their relative low fishing pressure. We compare the identified areas to those that are currently under protection, and to areas that have been proposed for protection at the GFCM. Our results show that the FRAs and other spatial management measures introduced in the last years marginally contribute to the protection PAMs in the western Mediterranean region. However, the adoption of FRAs that are currently under discussion at the GFCM could contribute significantly to improve the situation. FRAs could also contribute to operationalize NbS in the western Mediterranean Sea when properly designed and implemented. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,157,,Mar.

We present information on annual abundance patterns, behavioral ecology, habitat use and a species distribution model performed with MaxEnt. We evaluate the importance of the National System of Protected Areas (SNAP) in Colombia and Ecuador, under scenarios of climate change and habitat loss. We predicted a restricted environmental suitability area from 48,509 Km2 to 65,147 Km2 along western Ecuador and adjacent Colombia; ??8% of the potential distribution occurs within SNAP. We examined four aspects of C. mache ecology: (1) ecological data suggests a strong correlation between relative abundance and rainfall, with a high probability to observe frogs through rainy months (February-May); (2) habitat use and the species distribution model suggest that this canopy dweller is restricted to small streams and rivulets in primary and old secondary forest in evergreen lowland and piedmont forest of western Ecuador, with predictions of suitability areas in adjacent southern Colombia; (3) the SNAP of Colombia and Ecuador harbor a minimum portion of the predicted model of distribution (,10%); and (4) synergetic effects of habitat loss and climate change reduces in about 95% the suitability areas for this endangered frog along its distributional range in Protected Areas. The resulting model allows the recognition of areas to undertake conservation efforts and plan future field surveys, as well as forecasting regions with high probability of C. mache occurrence in western Ecuador and southern Colombia. Further research is required to assess population tendencies, habitat fragmentation and target survey zones to accelerate the discovery of unknown populations in unexplored areas with high probability of suitability.

However, PNAs are under constant threat of becoming too isolated in a landscape matrix frequently hostile to most of the species they harbor. A new system of conservation has recently been proposed in the form of areas under private protection (privately protected areas or PPAs) that complement the existing PNAs in their task of conservation. The objective of this study was to document the richness of mammal species that inhabit a 100 ha fragment of rain forest and pasture decreed as a PPA in southeastern Veracruz, Mexico, and to compare it to two nearby PPAs and one PNA of contrasting conservation values. Mammals were monitored in the three climatic seasons of the year through direct observation, track identification, and the use of Tomahawk, Sherman, and camera traps, as well as mist nets. We recorded 32 mammal species—including seven threatened species—belonging to 28 genera and 15 families. These results are important considering that 29 and 14 species have been reported for two other PPAs in the region that are 10 times larger. However, large mammals of the Orders Carnivora, Artyodactyla, and Perissodactyla were absent and are probably locally extinct. We propose that, under specific favorable conditions, forested PPAs can make an important contribution to strategies designed for biodiversity conservation in tropical ecosystems, by helping to conserve endangered species of both medium- and small-sized mammals. © The Author(s) 2017.",,,,,10,,Trop.

Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) can be considered as a part of the efforts made towards EBM focusing in area planning. The implementation of MPAs with the objective of assuring the flow of ES and its benefits towards society is currently in its initial stages due to lack of specific information about the operation and value of the ES offered by MPAs. In Mexico, MPAs represent one of the main conservation and management tools of the territory and its resources. In order to identify the level of legal protection of ES provided by the federal decrees that create MPAs, in this article we present as a case study the analysis of the specific protection of ES in MPAs in this country. We compiled the creation decrees of the 66 Mexican MPAs. Our analysis adopted three perspectives: ES explicitly mentioned in the decrees, ES indirectly mentioned in the decrees, and ES actually present in each MPA. The analyzed MPA decrees recognize that these areas provide four types of ecosystem functions (provision services, regulation services, support services, and cultural services). Of all existing Mexican MPAs, more than half of them (54.5%) have decrees of creation in which an ES is directly mentioned as a cause of their creation. 39.3% of the MPAs decrees contain paragraphs or words describing an ES. All the MPA categories actually provide a larger number of ES than those mentioned or alluded to in official decrees. We conclude that although there are legal frameworks for the protection of specific elements of marine and coastal ecosystems, MPAs represent the legal tool allowing for their integration under the ecosystem approach. In the Mexican case, there are voids to be filled in order for MPAs to fulfill the function assigned to them by Mexican laws. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,101-110,,,138,,Ocean Coast.

The goals were to 1) inform the public about the rocky intertidal habitat and the species that live there, 2) directly involve students (7th - 12th grade) and volunteers in the field collecting long-term data, and 3) collect and archive data that can be analyzed to detect changes in intertidal life over time. We developed protocols and species lists, and tested the student's ability to identify and monitor intertidal species compared to professional intertidal technicians. With limited preliminary training (a classroom visit for protocol and species overview, and a few field trips to learn the species using photo-identification sheets and to do practice counts), the students were able to collect data in the field that were comparable to those collected by professionals. Protocols have been established for 9 sites in the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, and used by 6 school groups to date. These protocols, currently posted on the website ?http://simp.ucsc.edu?, are being incorporated into the education and research programs of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary ?http://bonita.mbnms.nos.noaa.gov?, and eventually will be part of a program coordinated by the five west coast national marine sanctuaries, Long-term Monitoring Program and Experiential Training for Students (LiMPETS).",,624-636,,,,,,,,,,,American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE),,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Calif.

Marine protected areas are expected to produce long-lasting local increases in the density, size, diversity, and/or productivity of marine organisms within MPA boundaries (Russ and Alcala 1996; Claudet et al., 2006; Chapter 2), as well as regional increases outside of the MPA via spillover from the MPA to sites that continue to be fished (Chapter 3). Assessment of the actual effects of MPAs relative to these goals is essential for adaptive management and decision-making. Despite a large number of assessments, however, there remains considerable uncertainty about the actual effects of MPAs (e.g., Osenberg et al., 2006). The central question (and challenge) that underlies the assessment of any MPA is easy to express but difficult to measure: “How does the state of the system (e.g., density or size of a target organism) within the MPA compare to the state that would have existed had the MPA never been established?” The former can be directly observed; however, the latter cannot and must therefore be estimated through indirect means (Stewart-Oaten et al., 1986; Osenberg and Schmitt, 1996; Stewart-Oaten, 1996a, 1996b; Stewart-Oaten and Bence, 2001; Osenberg et al., 2006).

Step-selection functions (SSFs) is a highly promising method for connectivity modeling. However, differences in movement behavior across individuals and seasons are usually not considered in current SSF-based analyses, potentially leading to imprecise connectivity models. Here, our objective was to use SSFs to build functional connectivity models for African elephants Loxodonta africana in a seasonal environment to illustrate the temporal variability of functional landscape connectivity. We provide a methodological framework for integrating detected inter-individual variability into resistance surface modeling, for assessing how landscape connectivity changes across seasons, and for evaluating how seasonal connectivity differences affect predictions of movement corridors. Using radio-tracking data from elephants in the Borderland area between Kenya and Tanzania, we applied SSFs to create seasonal landscape resistance surfaces. Based on seasonal models, we predicted movement corridors connecting major protected areas (PAs) using circuit theory and least-cost path analysis. Our findings demonstrate that individual variability and seasonality lead to substantial changes in landscape connectivity and predicted movement corridors. Specifically, we show that the models disregarding seasonal resource fluctuations underestimate connectivity for the wet and transitional seasons, and overestimate connectivity for the dry season. Based on our seasonal models, we predicted a connectivity network between large PAs and highlight seasonal and consistent patterns that are most important for effective management planning. Our findings reveal that elephant movements in the borderland between Kenya and Tanzania are essential for maintaining connectivity in the dry season, and that existing corridors do not protect these movements in full extent. © 2018 The Zoological Society of London",,35-48,,1,22,,Anim.

Many fishes form spawning aggregations that are intentionally targeted given ease of capture. Bonefish (Albula spp.) species aggregate to spawn and are culturally and economically important, but generally lack management such as spawning area protections to ensure that fisheries are sustainable. Here, we use Cuba as a case study to inform the development and refinement of management strategies for bonefish. Recommendations for the management of bonefish pre-spawning aggregations were based on international experiences, which have been adapted to the Cuban context from results of surveys and interviews with Cuban fisheries professionals and fishing guides. The achievability and feasibility of recommendations were further reviewed by additional experts in the field of fisheries, management and Cuban policy. The process revealed extensive data-limitations for bonefish fisheries and underscored the importance of including fishing guides, local ecological knowledge and the context of marine protected areas in Cuba for bonefish management. Recommendations include (1) initiating information exchange between Cuban management agencies and third-party institutions related to bonefish management; (2) utilizing local ecological knowledge to gather information, formulate management strategies and enforce regulations; (3) implementing spatial and temporal management measures for bonefish spawning sites; (4) using what is already in place, by protecting spawning sites in the context of existing marine protected areas; (5) collaborating with all stakeholders to manage bonefish spawning sites; and (6) reducing the commercial harvest of the species. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,161-179,,2,106,,Environ.

Animals were surveyed off Gran Canaria Island in two bays, Melenara and Sardina del Norte, within three habitats: rocky bottom, artificial substrata and seagrass. Populations were monitored over a 5-year period (spring 2006–winter 2011) using 15-minute visual fast count (VFC) surveys. Seahorses were characterised by low abundances, small proportions of subadults and roughly equal sex ratios at each site. We aimed to determine whether environmental conditions and geographical position could explain differences in seahorse abundance and population structure between the study sites. Melenara Bay (mean sighting rate = 0.44 individuals VFC–1; SD 0.72) offered protected environments where seahorse distribution varied with substratum type, irrespective of season. Strong hydrodynamic forces in winter affected abundance and size at exposed locations in Sardina del Norte Bay (mean sighting rate=0.21 individuals VFC?1; SD 0.52).

In this study, we present an innovative approach to habitat connectivity and quantitative assessment of their use that is applicable to any terrestrial or aquatic species. Specifically, we aimed at estimating the proportion of the St. Lawrence Estuary beluga population (Canada) likely to use specific habitats within their summer range from habitat connectivity. To achieve this goal, we used a long-term (similar to 30 yr) observational database of beluga herd movements to derive transit corridor and an index of connectivity among habitats. These were then coupled with relative abundance estimates from aerial surveys for each of these habitats. Specifically, our objectives were to (1) verify the existence and location of transit corridors, (2) examine the effect of environmental factors on movement patterns and corridor routes, (3) describe their use by different age classes, and (4) based on connectivity patterns, determine the proportion of the population likely to transit along these corridors and to be present in each habitat. Our results highlighted the existence of a network of transit corridors among habitats that are connected to a central confluence zone, and expanding with three main branches into the three main regions of their summer range (Upper and Lower Estuary, and Saguenay River). They also highlighted the existence of a spatial segregation of sex and age classes in the population. Previously published aerial survey data indicate that on average, <6% of the population can be found within the limits of each habitat at any given time. Using this information within the framework of habitat connectivity provided a minimum estimate of the proportion of the population likely to visit each habitat, with minimum proportions reaching 45% in habitats of the central confluence zone (ile Rouge area). While we detected no evidence of an influence of bottom depth on corridor routes, we identified a tendency of beluga for moving with surface and ebb tide currents. The application of this approach to beluga and other wildlife populations will contribute to better assessing their potential exposure to natural or human-related stressors.",,,,6,12,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000667707100028,,,,,,,abundance; animal movement; circular statistics; CONSERVATION; corridors; CORRIDORS; DELPHINAPTERUS-LEUCAS POPULATION; focal follows; habitat connectivity; MARINE PARK; MODEL; NOISE; RIVER ESTUARY; SEGREGATION; ST-LAWRENCE ESTUARY; St. Lawrence Estuary beluga; WHALE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Since the establishment of the first nature reserve in 1956, numerous protected areas have been established in China, covering forests, grasslands, wetlands, deserts, and marine ecosystems, as well as rare and endangered species and germplasm resources, geological relics, natural landscapes, and important water sources. However, there are still many problems due to the lack of a nationally integrated design, indistinct functional identifications, spatial overlapping among different types of protected areas, and the quantity and spatial allocation of protected areas fall short of meeting the needs of biodiversity conservation and the provisioning of ecosystem services. This situation has resulted in low levels of management effectiveness. At the same time, it provides a valuable opportunity to streamline the existing protected area system and identify different protected area functional orientations, all under government deployment, with national parks as the main framework. Based on analyses of existing protected area types in China, like nature reserve, scenic spot, forest park, wetland park, geo park, desert park, aquatic germplasm resource reserve, etc.; and with reference to protected area system classification experiences from the rest of the world, including United States of America, United Kingdom, Canada, France, Brazil, etc. This paper discusses China's protected area system classification and proposes five categories of protected areas: Category I is nature reserve, including ecosystem reserve, species reserve, and nature relic reserve; Category II is national park; Category III is nature park, including forest park, wetland park, grassland park, desert park, marine park, geo park, scenic spot, and water park; Category IV is germplasm resource reserve, including crop germplasm resource, and aquatic germplasm resource reserve; Category V is ecological function reserve, including water source reserve, national non-commercial forest, other eco-redline areas, cultural forest, and holy mountain and lake, etc. This paper also analyzes the functional orientations and management targets of these protected area categories and provides foundations for future planning of the country's protected area system. For key protection objects, nature reserve are rare and endangered species and germplasm resources, representative ecosystems, and natural relics; national park are rare and endangered species and germplasm resources, representative ecosystems, natural landscapes, and ecosystem services; nature park are representative ecosystems, natural relics, natural landscapes, and ecosystem services; germplasm resource reserve is rare and endangered species and germplasm resources; and ecological function reserve is ecosystem services. The development of China's system will greatly improve the classification of protected areas, create new policies and mechanisms based on their various characteristics, strengthen government management and investment, and promote a whole-of-society strength to protected area development. © 2020 Science Press.

MPAs can have a wide variety of objectives (e.g., science, conservation, food security, cultural value), and scientific guidance on how to design MPAs to achieve objectives is often based on simulation modeling. Many different models may all provide an answer to questions such as the predicted change in population biomass and fisheries catches resulting from th implementation of an MPA. When multiple levels of model complexity are all in theory capable of answering the same question, and the models cannot be confronted with data directly, the decision of what level of model complexity to use can be ad hoc. In this, paper I compare the predicted effects of MPAs on catch and biomass produced by a spatially explicit age-structured multi-species and multi-fleet (High-definition) model to the predictions generated by a two-patch surplus production (Low-definition) model, fitted to emulate the High-definition model. I found that in many cases, the predictions made by the two models were markedly different, with the Low-definition model frequently predicting substantially higher biomass benefits from MPAs than the High-definition model, and in some cases incorrectly estimating the direction (positive or negative) of the MPA effects. However, I also found that the Low-definition model has strategic value for broad classification and ranking exercises. My results show that care should be taken in selecting and interpreting the results of MPA simulation models and that research is needed to understand what models are best suited to what policy recommendations when multiple viable options exist. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V. 2025.",,,,1,18,,Theor.

A network of MPAs covering roughly 20% of the Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary was established in 2003, with a goal of providing regional conservation and fishery benefits. We used a spatially explicit bioeconomic simulation model and a Bayesian difference-in-difference regression to examine the conditions under which MPAs can provide population-level conservation benefits inside and outside their borders and to assess evidence of those benefits in the Channel Islands. As of 2017, we estimated that biomass densities of targeted fin-fish had a median value 81% higher (90% credible interval: 23–148) inside the Channel Island MPAs than outside. However, we found no clear effect of these MPAs on mean total biomass densities at the population level: estimated median effect was –7% (90% credible interval: –31 to 23) from 2015 to 2017. Our simulation model showed that effect sizes of MPAs of <30% were likely to be difficult to detect (even when they were present); smaller effect sizes (which are likely to be common) were even harder to detect. Clearly, communicating expectations and uncertainties around MPAs is critical to ensuring that MPAs are effective. We provide a novel assessment of the population-level effects of a large MPA network across many different species of targeted fin-fish, and our results offer guidance for communities charged with monitoring and adapting MPAs. © 2021 The Authors.

The aim of this work was to model the potential distribution, current and future, of 5 key species of coastal dune vegetation of the Yucatán Peninsula. Particularly the expected changes in areas currently destined for conservation were evaluated. The maximum entropy method was used, including the RCP 4.5 and 8.5 scenarios, which respectively consider a moderate and drastic increase in greenhouse gas emissions, and the general CNRM-CM5 circulation model to the 2080 horizon. The models showed that under both scenarios, the distribution of the selected species would decrease markedly, with a reduction from 72% to 94% for scenario 4.5 and from 82% to 93% for scenario 8.5, and that most of the protected natural areas would not maintain favorable environmental conditions for the 5 species studied. However, it was identified that protected areas northeast of the peninsula, and an unprotected area at the north of the state of Yucatán, could conserve a limited area that would favor the distribution of these species. © 2020 Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico.

A better understanding of ES in resource-rich developing countries can contribute to poverty alleviation and sustainable development, while at the same time conserving natural resources. This study assessed the flow of ES in Mida Creek, a marine reserve in Kenya, with the aim of characterizing land use/land cover (LULC) classes, spatially mapping distribution of ES, identifying important ES, and establishing the opinions of experts on ES flow. A qualitative and quantitative assessment was carried out coupling expert scores and LULC maps in a matrix structure. A participatory approach was used to engage and raise awareness with the community groups who actively participate in conservation activities in the creek, together with researchers/academics/managers who also are involved with the management of the reserve. The study was carried out between July and October 2015 and a total of 65 participants were involved. Datasets were collected using questionnaires in which ecosystem service flow was scored based on expert estimates per LULC class against the selected ES. Data were assessed using statistical and spatial analysis techniques. Results for the flow of provisioning services showed that, while palm trees were the main source of firewood (68%), other vegetation types were also an important source for wood products, including charcoal (46%), construction poles (54%) and fishing gear (68%). There was also a high flow of provisioning services (sea food and bait organisms) from water bodies (82%) and mangroves (80%). Flow for regulating services was mainly from mangroves, and for cultural services from beaches, mangroves and water bodies. Saline bare areas and sand flats scored least for all the ES. There were statistically significant differences in the scoring of the LULC against the different categories of provisioning, regulating and cultural services between the local communities and the other stakeholders. The method shows both the location of the resources utilized by the communities and, also, facilitates communication between these communities and the decision makers, thereby providing an example of a management strategy at the local scale for other coastal regions of Kenya and elsewhere. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,Nov-21,,,140,,Ocean Coast.

As the global population increases, new and expanding pressures are created on fish resources. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) have been widely promoted as valuable tools for rebuilding or maintaining fish stocks around the world. The success of MPAs, however, widely depends on their particular configuration and management and their effectiveness is often object of contentious debates in both scientific and political arenas. Since fisheries management is a collective action problem, some forms of human cooperation in terms of fishing behaviour can lead to sustainable fisheries and can represent, in theory, a complementary or even an alternative approach to the establishment of no-take marine reserves. We present here a new Agent-Based Model (ABM) that captures the main characteristics of an idealised small-scale fishery. We then use the model to investigate the combined effects of different fishing strategies (expressed by a cooperative trait associated to fishing effort) and various configurations of no-take reserves (including presence or absence of MPA, size of MPA, age of MPA, i.e. time elapsed since its establisment, and distance between two MPAs) on fish abundance and catch under an overfishing regime. Our results show that high cooperation without an MPA can be as effective as lower levels of cooperation combined with an MPA in maintaining fish stocks and catches at relatively high levels. The mobility of our fish agents implies that, contrary to current belief, these results may not be limited to sedentary species. We also found that the greatest impacts on fish abundance and catch are produced by the size of an MPA and the time elapsed since its establishment. Furthermore, the distance between two MPAs has no significant effect, regardless of the cooperation levels characterising the fishing agents. Despite its simplicity, the ABM presented here provides insights on the most plausible effects that combinations of different MPA designs and human cooperation strategies can produce on overexploited small-scale fisheries. When appropriately adapted with a realistic, fishery-specific parameterisation, this model can constitute a valuable tool for evaluating the impact of different resource management strategies. We make the model available as open-source software with the aims of fostering reproducibility, transparency, and flow of ideas. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,44,,Ecol.

We designed an integer linear programming model to quantify tradeoffs among five marine reserve network aspects: ecological conservation value, economic opportunity cost, geographic domain size, total reserve area, and reserve spatial compactness. Using ecological and economic data from the Hawaiian deepwater bottomfish fishery as a case study, an integer linear programming model was designed to choose areas that 1) maximize conservation value and 2) minimize opportunity cost, defined as foregone fisheries revenue. Compromise solutions that equally weighted conservation value and opportunity cost resulted in solutions with dramatically lower foregone fisheries revenue and a relatively small loss in conservation value compared to solutions with the maximum conservation value. When opportunity cost was assumed uniform across the spatial domain, solutions had considerably higher foregone revenue for a given level of conservation value, highlighting the drawback of not including a spatially explicit metric of opportunity cost in reserve selection models. Inclusion of only indicator species, rather than the entire species complex, in the optimization led to considerable representation gaps in conservation value for non-included species. We found that optimizations performed at the archipelago scale provided geographically disproportionate reserve allocations and thus disproportionate conservation benefits and socioeconomic impacts across geopolitically distinct island regions. We showed how reserve selection models can be used to support systematic conservation planning exercises characterized by many diverse and conflicting objectives and parties. © 2019 The Authors",,,,,241,,Biol.

Plant species in wetlands are characterized as bio-monitors that can show changes and pollution factors and levels within the area due to their properties. Monitoring of changes in plant species and geographical distribution is extremely important for the sustainability of diversity and balance in the ecosystem. In this study, it is aimed to determine the distribution areas of each taxon by creating a map of flora, which is known to be found in the wetlands of Gediz Delta and whose species are known but their distribution areas are unknown. Vegetation was observed in situ by field studies. Using the high-resolution infrared orthophoto images, the species and geographical distribution of the plants were determined by object-oriented classification method, which is a new approach in the determination of the elements on earth's surface. With this object-oriented approach, a new dimension has been given to classical classification processes. By transferring the area and average reflection values of the objects determined by using the properties of the method to the vector map as attribute information, it will be possible to create a reliable base for the ""Wetland Management Plan"", which is specified by experts as the most effective way to protect wetlands. © 2020 Parlar Scientific Publications.

Twenty-one sites were surveyed using the timed-search method. The strictly protected Unio crassus was present at 86% of the sites and showed continuous distribution throughout the river. Young mussels constituted 26% of U. crassus individuals, indicating successful recruitment. Pseudanodonta complanata was found at three sites, suggesting that the Pisa River provides an important habitat also for this endangered species. Additionally, Anodonta cygnea, A. anatina, U. pictorum, and U. tumidus were recorded. Such multispecies unionid mussel communities are increasingly rare and need to be protected. The Pisa River is characterised by natural flow regime and a meandering channel with diversified depth and flow speeds.

We examined the role of marine protected areas (MPAs) in reducing disease in corals and the hypothesis that the composition of fish communities can influence coral health, by comparing disease prevalence between MPA and non-protected (control) reefs in Palau. Overall, the prevalence of diseases pooled, as well as the prevalence of skeletal eroding band (SEB), brown band disease (BrB) and growth anomalies (GAs) individually in major disease hosts (families Acroporidae and Poritidae), were not significantly reduced within MPAs. In fact, the prevalence of SEB was 2-fold higher within MPAs overall; however, the 4 studied MPAs were ineffective in enhancing coral assemblage or fish stock health. A negative association between the prevalence of SEB and richness of a fish species targeted by fishers in Palau highlights the potential role that well-managed MPAs could play in reducing SEB. The composition of coral communities and their susceptibility to bleaching also influenced the prevalence of disease on the studied reefs. The prevalence of diseases pooled and SEB were positively associated with the cover of major disease hosts (families Acroporidae and Poritidae), and the prevalence of BrB and bleaching were also positively associated. Although our study did not show positive effects of MPAs on coral heath, we did identify the potential for increased fish diversity within MPAs to reduce coral disease. Our study also highlights the complexity of relationships between fish assemblages, coral community composition and coral health on Indo-Pacific reefs. © Inter-Research 2009.",,135-150,,,87,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1-2 Journal Abbreviation: Dis.

However, increasing mining interest in these stocks is threatening unique ecosystems, such as rhodolith beds, which provide many ecosystem goods and services. We review the potential of the unexplored Brazilian deposits and the rising conflicts with other blue economic sectors and biodiversity hotspots. The tropical Southwestern Atlantic Ocean, particularly the Brazilian Exclusive Economic Zone, has the largest deposit of marine limestone worldwide, which is very attractive to the global industry, with reserves measured at more than 1355,157,240 tons of CaCO3 and it is especially useful as a supply for agriculture and animal nutrition. This large mining potential raises concerns regarding licenses and potential impacts, especially considering the biological and socio-economic importance of extensive rhodolith beds, which may conflict with mining. Additionally, future dredging activities will take place in vulnerable ecosystems without adequate marine spatial planning (MSP). Currently, there is no long-term scientific information on the available carbonate stocks, stock recoverability, risks to connectivity with other ecosystems (e.g., coral reefs), and the reduced provision of ecosystem services which may affect activities such as artisanal fisheries. In this context, encouraging carbonate mining without science-based information and MSP accelerates the unsustainable exploitation of this important ecosystem. This activity will contribute to the degradation of tropical marine biodiversity and threaten the food security of traditional and vulnerable human communities, which is in opposition to the Sustainable Development Goals and reaching the 2030 United Nations Agenda. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,148,,Mar.

Seabirds are top predators often used as biodiversity surrogates and sentinel species of the marine ecosystem health, thus frequently informing marine conservation planning. This study presents the first data on the spatial (GPS-loggers) and trophic (stable isotope analysis) ecology of a tropical seabird-the endangered Cape Verde shearwater Calonectris edwardsii-during both the incubation and the chick-rearing periods of two consecutive years. This information was related with marine environmental predictors (species distribution models), existent areas of conservation concern for seabirds (i.e. marine Important Bird Areas; marine IBAs) and threats to the marine environment in the West African areas heavily used by the shearwaters. There was an apparent inter-annual consistency on the spatial, foraging and trophic ecology of Cape Verde shearwater, but a strong alteration on the foraging strategies of adult breeders among breeding phases (i.e. from incubation to chick-rearing). During incubation, birds mostly targeted a discrete region off West Africa, known by its enhanced productivity profile and thus also highly exploited by international industrial fishery fleets. When chick-rearing, adults exploited the comparatively less productive tropical environment within the islands of Cape Verde, at relatively close distance from their breeding colony. The species enlarged its trophic niche and increased the trophic level of their prey from incubation to chick-rearing, likely to provision their chicks with a more diversified and better quality diet. There was a high overlap between the Cape Verde shearwaters foraging areas with those of European shearwater species that overwinter in this area and known areas of megafauna bycatch off West Africa, but very little overlap with existing Marine Important Bird Areas. Further investigation on the potential nefarious effects of fisheries on seabird communities exploiting the Canary Current system off West Africa is needed. Such negative effects could be alleviated or even dissipated if the 'fisheries-conservation hotspots' identified for the region, would be legislated as Marine Protected Areas. © 2015 Paiva et al.",,,,10,10,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,"Africa; Africa, Western; animal; Animal Migration; Animals; Area Under Curve; area under the curve; Article; Atlantic Ocean; biodiversity; Biodiversity; bird; Birds; Calonectris edwardsii; Cape Verde; conservation biology; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; diet; Diet; ecosystem; Ecosystem; endangered species; Endangered Species; environmental protection; feeding behavior; Feeding Behavior; female; Female; fish; Fishes; foraging; foraging behavior; geographic information system; Geographic Information Systems; geographical variation (species); habitat quality; habitat use; human activities; Human Activities; male; Male; Models, Theoretical; nesting; Nesting Behavior; nonhuman; physiology; population migration; predation; Predatory Behavior; probability; Probability; rearing; receiver operating characteristic; reproduction; Reproduction; ROC Curve; seabird; species conservation; species difference; Species Specificity; theoretical model",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This study determined whether members of local communities had common or divergent views about the objectives and indicators of MPA effectiveness. In the central Philippines we used unconstrained and constrained methods to interview people in five stakeholder groups (elders, fishers, leaders, women, and youth) associated with each of 10 community-based no-take MPAs that had been protected between 0 and 21 years. Respondents identified multiple MPA objectives, the most frequently mentioned of which was restoring and sustaining fish populations. The results suggest that MPA age accounts for the greatest level of variation across communities. When unconstrained, progress in enforcement was identified as a key indicator among respondents from younger MPAs while respondents from older MPAs identified increased fish abundance and catch. Although consensus can be reached more easily under constrained conditions, the results derived from unconstrained methods are more revealing of the needs and aspirations of communities. These are likely to contribute more to the search for appropriate management interventions, particularly given that MPAs evolve over time. Hence, the development of MPA effectiveness indicators must be an iterative community-informed process to ensure timely and relevant management interventions. © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.",,122-143,,2,38,,Coast.

Here, we investigate the ability of global marine reserves to protect fish biomass under future climate change scenarios. Moreover, we explore regional patterns and compare worlds with and without marine reserves. We rely on computer modeling to simulate an utopian world where all marine reserves thrive and ocean governance is effective. Results suggest that climate change will affect fish biomass in most marine reserves and their surrounding waters throughout the 21st century. The biomass change varies among regions, with tropical reserves losing biomass, temperate ones gaining, and polar reserves having mixed effects. Overall, a world with marine reserves will still be better off in terms of fish biomass than a world without marine reserves.

This study aims to characterize, evaluate, and compare the environment and fish community, through 24 localities in the Yucatan Coastal Corridor, within the Reserve El Palmar (REP) and the unprotected Yucatan coastal region (UYCR). During three years, physicochemical variables and community descriptors (diversity, abundance, and evenness) were calculated for each site. The 94 fish species registered were grouped in five trophic groups (TGs), the most abundant and conspicuous are the zoobenthos, zooplankton, and nekton feeders, while omnivorous and herbivorous are scarce. To determine the anthropogenic impacts, the population size, main activities, and infrastructure of each site were considered, resulting in four categories of disturbance: (WI) without impact, inside the REP; (LI) low impact; (MI) medium impact; and (HI) high impact, within the UYCR. Multivariate analyses combining physicochemical variables, community descriptors, and TGs by impact category segregated two groups, WI-LI, with high values of salinity, fish abundance, diversity of fish and TGs, and low values of nitrites, nitrates, and ammonia, from MI-HI with the contrary characteristics. In -conclusion, 1) the protection of the REP is helping to maintain high fish diversity and abundance within and around the area, 2) the anthropogenic activities constrain the fish diversity and abundance, and 3) nitrates, nitrites, and ammonia are important variables in the determination of the ecosystem health. © 2019 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,51,,J.

Despite the growing awareness about the consequences of reduced mobility (e. g. design of marine protected areas), an accurate description of fish movement is technically difficult; thus, it is usually not considered. Mark-release-(single)-recapture (MRsR) data obtained from externally tagged fish that are returned by fishermen or recreational fishers are potentially useful for describing fish movement. The present study is a methodological contribution aimed at demonstrating a simple analytic strategy for estimating the size of the circular home range (i.e. the area where a fish spends most of the time) from MRsR data. This analytic strategy is not adequate for pelagic or large predators moving at the oceanic scale but could be suitable for some reef or littoral fish. The estimates obtained by this method are robust even if (1) the number of recaptured fish is small, (2) fishing effort or habitat suitability displays some spatial variability and (3) fish display some intra-specific variability. Based on only 32 recaptures, our data demonstrate that Coris julis (a small labrid targeted by recreational fishers) is more sedentary than previously assumed; this fish spends 95% of its time within an area 227 m in radius (Bayesian 95% credibility interval: 192 to 275 m).",,87-U146,,,430,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000291826600007,,,,,,,ASSEMBLAGES; BEHAVIOR; CONNECTIVITY; External T-bar anchor tags; Fish movement; HABITAT UTILIZATION; Home range; MARINE RESERVE; MOVEMENT PATTERNS; Recreational fishing; REEF FISHES; SEX-CHANGE; SPACE; TAG RECOVERIES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This chapter investigates Indonesia’s mountainous national parks, which accounts for around 9% of the archipelago’s landmass. The first batch of five national parks was designated in 1980, and the number increased gradually, reaching 41 by 2003. The current crop of 54 national parks are defined as conservation areas that possess native ecosystems managed via zoning to facilitate research, education, biodiversity and tourism goals. Efforts have been made to fade out the ‘fences and fines’ approach in favour of a more participatory approach to PA management. However, ineffective conservation is revealed by the influx of tourists at popular destinations such as Mount Bromo (2,329 m), an active volcano in the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park. Unregulated nature-based tourism at Bromo and other mountainous national parks has negative environmental impacts such as air and water pollution, effects on wildlife behaviour, habitat deterioration, solid waste accumulation, erosion of the rim of the volcano, vandalism, and illegal flora harvesting.

We hypothesized that greater intensity of grazing would result in higher degradation of the soil system. The grazing factor had a significant effect on soil organic C and N, microbial biomass C, microbial biomass N, microbial activity, and ?-glucosidase, while acid phosphatase and urease activity were not found to differ significantly among the management systems. The intensity of grazing affected mostly the chemical properties of soil (organic C and N) and altered significantly the composition of the soil microbial community, as lower C:N ratio of the microbial biomass indicates the dominance of bacteria over fungi in the heavily grazed fields. All estimated biological variables presented higher values in the humid period, although the pattern of differentiation was similar at both sampling times, revealing that site-specific variations were more pronounced than the time-specific ones. Our results indicate that not all C, N, and P dynamics were equally affected by grazing. Management plans applied to pastures, in order to improve soil quality properties and accelerate passive reforestation, should aim at the improvement of soil parameters related primarily to C and secondly to N cycle. © 2017, Springer International Publishing AG.",,,,9,189,,Environ.

As a partial solution to these problems, Citizen Science has been incrementally employed by the scientific community but, to effectively make the most of it, it is mandatory to design two components: a generic-scenario procedure that describes the steps to perform before, during and after the survey and tailored technologies to acquire, gather, process and visualize the environmental data. In this work, a procedure tested in different underwater missions, that is the enhancement of a precedent one, and technologies that, arranged in a pipeline, carry out all the process from data acquisition to output visualization are presented.

Here, we analysed satellite telemetry data and foraging habitat preferences in relation to chlorophyll-a productivity fronts to understand the movements and behaviour of endangered Mediterranean fin whales (Balaenoptera physalus) during their spring–summer feeding aggregation in the North-Western Mediterranean Sea. Eleven individuals were equipped with Argos satellite transmitters across 3 years, with transmissions averaging 23.5 ± 11.3 days. Hidden Markov Models were used to identify foraging behaviour, revealing how individuals showed consistency in their use of seasonal core feeding grounds; this was supported by the distribution of potential foraging habitat. Importantly, tracked whales spent most of their time in areas with no explicit protected status within the study region. This highlights the need for enhanced time- and place-based conservation actions to mitigate the effects of anthropogenic impacts for this species, notably ship strike risk and noise disturbance in an area of exceptionally high maritime traffic levels. These findings strengthen the need to further assess critical habitats and Important Marine Mammal Areas that are crucial for focused conservation, management and mitigation efforts. © 2024 The Authors.",,,,3,11,,R.

However, in most of the adjacent countries, the species’ abundance and distribution are practically unknown. An actively reproducing sub-population with a minimum of 25 adult/sub-adult seals lives in the Greek central Ionian Sea. The latter can form a nucleus from which the entire Adriatic-Ionian Basin could be re-colonized if adequate conservation measures are implemented throughout the area and in a coordinated manner. We examine the historical presence in the region as a baseline for providing a benchmark for conservation. We further look into the species’ habitat availability, possibilities for a rapid population assessment and various parameters that are considered crucial for its conservation, such as the existence of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), corridors for connectivity purposes as well as needs for raising public awareness. We recommend a series of interlinked actions within the framework of a conservation strategy the implementation of which will ensure the conditions for maintaining ecologically, demographically, and genetically viable sub-populations of this species emblematic for the entire Mediterranean Sea. To achieve this goal, a coalition of partners from this area is required in order to adopt the strategy and jointly implement the measures required.

KHNP’s main objective is to protect the area’s unique marine environment, as well as to ensure the survival of its cultural heritage. This makes it an interesting example of an MPA in which local rural development co-exists with robust nature conservation, and it provides useful lessons about the parameters necessary to achieve sustainable use of an MPA. The collaborative model for planning, designing and managing KHNP, involving local stakeholders in regular dialogue, helped resolve initial conflict and make the national park a force of unity, innovation and cooperation in the region. The innovative and collaborative institutional arrangement for governing and managing the park is generally seen as a key driver for local buy-in and MPA legitimacy. While challenges and untapped opportunities remain, local stakeholders agree that the economic and social benefits of Sweden’s first and only marine national park have greatly surpassed its costs. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd.

Exergy and specific exergy estimate structural complexity while throughput and information functional complexity. OCI was applied to benthic habitats in a coastal marine tract encompassing a Marine Protected Area (MPA) in north-western Italy. The four individual indices did not always show homogeneous results in assigning complexity to different habitats. On the contrary, the additive measure provided by OCI showed that seagrass meadows and coralligenous reefs are in all the most complex habitats. Applying OCI provided results consistent with traditional approaches based on expert judgement, which usually attach more interest to seagrass meadows and hard bottoms with respect to soft bottoms, but expressed a synthetic, objective and quantitative approach. OCI can be mapped for management purposes, resolving the discordances evidenced by the individual indices. Ecological complexity in the study area is concentrated in some hot spots, as mapped by OCI, while the greatest part of the seafloor is occupied by low complexity habitats. Only some of these complexity hotspots are included within the Marine Protected Area, while this study suggests that high complexity areas, adjacent to the existing MPA, should be considered for protection possibly reshaping MPA's limits. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

Therefore, Protected Areas (PA) are of utmost importance to preserve biodiversity. Their effectiveness, however, depends on some management strategies such as buffer zones, which prevent/mitigate the impact of external threats and might increase the amount of available habitat for wildlife existing within reserves. Nevertheless, how intensively terrestrial mammals use buffer zones remains little studied, particularly in the Neotropical region. Aiming to analyse the use of a buffer zone (5 km wide) by medium and large-sized mammals, we modelled the occupancy probabilities of five species of conservation concern including local (interior and buffer zone) as a site covariate, simultaneously controlling for imperfect detection. Data collection was made with camera traps from April to September 2013 in a 9000 ha Cerrado PA (“interior”) and in its surrounding area (39721.41 ha; “buffer zone”). This PA (Jataí Ecological Station) is immersed in a landscape where sugarcane plantations predominate in the northeastern of the state of Săo Paulo. We also conducted an inventory to compare the number and composition of species between interior and buffer zone. A total of 31 mammal species (26 natives) was recorded via camera traps and active search for sightings, vocalizations, tracks and signs. Occupancy estimates for Myrmecophaga tridactyla, Leopardus pardalis and Pecari tajacu were numerically higher in interior. On the other hand, Chrysocyon brachyurus had the highest occupancy in buffer zone, while the largest predator, Puma concolor, used both areas similarly. However, as the confidence intervals (95%) overlapped, the differences in occupancy probabilities between interior and buffer were weak for all these species. Additionally, regarding only the species recorded by cameras, the observed and estimated richness were similar between interior and buffer zone of the PA. Our data demonstrated that the buffer zone is indeed used by medium and large-sized mammals, including conservation-dependent ones. The lack of enforcement of current legislation regarding buffer zones is therefore a real threat for mammals, even when protection is guaranteed in the interior of protected areas. © Universidade Estadual de Campinas UNICAMP.

MCYST concentrations in water and fish tissues were determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results suggest that Lake Karla has undergone a progressive cultural eutrophication with frequent cyanobacterial blooms. The most dominant species in lake's phytoplankton were Anabaenopsis elenkinii, Sphaerospermopsis and Planktothrix agardhii. MCYST concentrations were detected in water samples comparable to those reported for other eutrophicated Mediterranean lakes while considerable amounts of MCYST were detected in the tissues of the species C. carpio in the following order: liver > kidney > brain > intestine > muscles.

In recent years, the harsh financial situation, the economic recession and the lack of development and employment opportunities in Greece has led to the overexploitation of its natural resources and worsening environmental conditions. For example, the increasing number of people engaged in fishing activity has created a significant pressure for regulating the access to fisheries. MPAs appear as windows of opportunity to government bodies, professional agencies, policy makers and NGOs caring for sustainability and environmental conservation. The top down priorities, objectives and management plans devised by policy makers and NGOs utilizing expert and scientific knowledge on marine ecosystems, which are essential for natural resource management, enforce the participation of local stakeholders whose life modes and activities are linked to specific ecosystems and the nuanced management of their resources. However, local stakeholders need to be engaged in MPAs not as appendices but rather as empowered actors. The paper aims at discussing the challenge of establishing and operating an MPA in Gyaros Island, located in the Northern Cyclades. Gyaros hosts a colony of monk seals while it is also the site of an MPA that currently sets to operate an ecosystem-based management plan. The paper is based on empirical material collected in the Northern Cyclades during fieldwork in the period 2013-2017.

It was designated as a Ramsar site in 2018, highlighting its importance for wetland conservation and protection. The CCZ harbors an extraordinary biological diversity, with habitats such as swamps, marshes, and lagoons that support a wide variety of animal and plant species. The CCZ provides ecosystem services, such as hydrological cycle regulation, water filtration, flood protection, erosion control, and carbon storage. However, it has been impacted by human activities, such as deforestation, agrochemical pollution, drainage for agriculture, and infrastructure development. The objective of this research was to identify the High Conservation Values (HCVs) of the CCZ to delineate priority conservation zones, using a multi-criteria evaluation within a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) environment. An HCV is a biological, ecological, social, or cultural value that is exceptionally significant or critically important. The HCV are divided into six categories: (i) species diversity, (ii) ecosystems and landscape-scale mosaics, (iii) ecosystems and habitats, (iv) ecosystem services, (v) community needs, and (vi) cultural values. The HCVs of the CCZ were identified by considering biological, ecological, and social conditions. To achieve this, geographic inputs for each HCV were reviewed and organized based on field data and secondary information and, after compiling the indicators list, a multi-criteria evaluation was conducted using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to zone the area through weighted overlay analysis. The results describe the identified HCVs for the CCZ and present ten indicators related to specific aspects such as biodiversity and threats within the study area, represented in ten maps to identify priority conservation zones. The zoned indicators include: 1. Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) for freshwater fish biodiversity; 2. Fish species distribution models for bocachico (Prochilodus magdalenae), bagre rayado (Pseudoplatystoma magdaleniatum), pacora (Plagioscion magdalenae), barbul (Pimelodus yuma), and blaquillo (Sorubim cuspicaudus), generated in Maxent from presence data and environmental variables; 3.

Additionally, a criteria valuation matrix was created, with weight calculations for the overlay process, resulting in a final map of HCV zones classified according to conservation priority. This classification is based on their unique biodiversity, the presence of critical habitats, and the performance of essential ecological functions. The results show variability in conservation levels within the CCZ. The “Low Priority” category covers an area of 140 044.44 ha, while the “Intermediate Priority” category spans 22 234.97 ha, which may require focused attention. The “Moderate Priority”, “High Priority”, and “Very High Priority” categories cover 7 685.45 ha, 12 288.71 ha, and 10 081.38 ha, respectively, highlighting areas that require urgent actions to preserve the ecological integrity of the wetland. These findings underscore the need for differentiated management strategies to address priorities and ensure sustainability. Nevertheless, it is clear that the entire complex constitutes an HCV, as it is a Ramsar wetland of international importance, located within the boundaries of a regional public protected area called the Distrito Regional de Manejo Integrado (DRMI), and is part of the intergovernmental treaty, the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance, especially as a Habitat for Waterfowl. Furthermore, it is a natural wetland (unregulated) that serves as an important migratory route for both birds (nationally and internationally) and fish within the Magdalena and Cauca River basin. © 2024 Instituto de Geografia.

The objective of this work was thus to advice management and conservation strategies for the possible new deep-sea crustacean fisheries in the Colombian Caribbean based on an ecosystem approach to fisheries. The management of both the shallow water shrimp fishery and the potential new deep-sea crustacean fishery should be based on baseline information of the population dynamics and size structure of target species and the optimum level of fishing effort and catch volumes and should also consider the development of strategies for constant resource and ecosystem monitoring.

Protected areas are considered an effective method for conserving biological diversity, and can help prevent declines and extinctions of species. Thus, evaluating the effectiveness of protected areas in achieving conservation objectives is vital for successful conservation and management. Aims The aim of this study was to determine the spatial and temporal distribution of large- A nd medium-sized mammals and humans as an aid to evaluate the effectiveness of the Lar Protected Area in northern Iran. This area is expected to be a year-round habitat for seven large- A nd medium-sized mammal species: (1) brown bear (Ursus arctos); (2) golden jackal (Canis aureus); (3) Persian leopard (Panthera pardus); (4) Eurasian red fox (Vulpes vulpes); (5) wild goat (Capra aegagrus); (6) Alborz red sheep (Ovis orientalis); and (7) wild boar (Sus scrofa). Methods A camera-trap survey (2780 camera-trap days) was conducted in the Lar Protected Area, which included mountains, canyons and plains, from June 2013 to August 2014. The spatial and temporal distribution of four categories of humans in the study area was documented: Wardens, poachers, tribal people and tourists. Key results All aforementioned mammals were photographed in the study area. The Lar Protected Area was a seasonally important habitat for the majority of these species, especially from October to December, whereas the presence of tribal people, tourists and wardens was greatest in summer. Poachers were most common in autumn, when wardens and other humans were less common. Poachers preferentially used an area containing canyons, as did wild goats, bears, leopards, foxes and jackals. Conclusions The seasonality of the distribution of the seven species, which were most common in autumn, suggests that mammals were avoiding humans in summer. An average of 7.6 photographs of poachers for every photograph of a warden was obtained; this implies a potential threat to the conservation of mammals. Implications These results suggest that the Lar Protected Area functions as a seasonal habitat for many species of mammals, thus highlighting the importance of adjacent protected areas. Temporal separation of wardens from poachers indicates that reallocation of wardens could reduce poaching. © CSIRO 2017.",,400-406,,5,44,,Wildl.

In recent decades, reductions in nutrient inputs have led to improvements in water quality in many rivers and lakes in central and northern Europe, but long-term trends are less clear in southern Europe. We conducted the first comprehensive study of water quality in Dońana (SW Spain), one of the most important wetland complexes in Europe and the Mediterranean region. The core area of Dońana is a large shallow, seasonal marsh (UNESCO World Heritage Site—WHS) that floods during rainy, cool winter months, then dries out during the summer. The marsh is fed by three main streams whose catchments are within a Biosphere Reserve but are impacted by greenhouses (for cultivating fruit, irrigated with groundwater), poorly treated urban wastewaters and tourism. From 2013 to 2016, we monitored nutrient (Total P, Total N, PO4?3, NH4+, NO3?, NO2?) and phytoplankton chlorophyll-a (chla) concentrations in surface waters of the Dońana marsh and the three main streams. We quantified changes in greenhouse cover since 1995 using satellite images. Nutrient concentrations in streams were consistently higher than in the marsh, particularly in the Partido and Rocina streams that regularly reached concentrations equivalent to a “bad physico-chemical status” under the EU Water Framework Directive (WFD), and whose catchments suffered a fivefold expansion of greenhouses from 1995 to 2016. The Partido was the most polluted stream, and the most affected by wastewater effluents, and had particularly high concentrations of NH4+ (Geometric Mean = 0.3 mg L?1) and NO2? (GM = 0.52 mg L?1) across seasons. Patterns in chla concentrations were less consistent, but streams (GM = 6.78 µg L?1) generally had higher concentrations than the marsh (GM = 4.27 µg L?1). Nutrient concentrations in spot samples within the marsh largely depended on a combination of evaporation (as revealed by higher stable isotope ?2H values in the water column) and spatial processes (concentrations increase close to stream entry points, where conductivity is lower). Anthropogenic nutrient pollution in entry streams is a serious problem in Dońana, with extensive stretches too toxic for fish. Reinforcement of policies aimed at reducing nutrient inputs to Dońana are urgently required to meet the biodiversity conservation and environmental objectives for the WHS and WFD, respectively. Paradoxically, the marsh is currently relied upon to purify the water entering from streams. © 2021, Springer Nature B.V.",,41-65,,1,29,,Wetlands Ecol.

Increased fishing pressure over the last three decades, particularly by the recreational sector, has led to concerns regarding sustainability of the local white stumpnose stock. The fishery was exceptionally productive between 2006 and 2008, with an estimated annual catch of 141.2 tonnes (t). Only 3% of boat outings surveyed were commercial boats targeting white stumpnose, yet this sector accounted for 39.3 t (31%) of the average annual catch. The recreational boat sector accounted for most of the catch (70.0 t), and the recreational shore sector the least (31.9 t). Commercial boat catch per unit effort (CPUE; 3.7 fish angler–1 h–1) was more than 10 times that of recreational boats (0.3 fish angler–1 h–1). White stumpnose catch length-frequency differed significantly (p < 0.01) between the fishing sectors, with the commercial sector retaining larger fish (34.7 cm [SD 5.9]) than the recreational boat (33.9 cm [SD 5.9]) and shore (30.4 cm [SD 5.8]) sectors. A decline in commercial CPUE (2000–2015) of approximately 40% and a concomitant severe decline (>95%) in survey data for juvenile white stumpnose CPUE (2007–2016) indicate that the current rate of exploitation is not sustainable. Recovery of the white stumpnose stock will require a decrease in fishing mortality. Possible management regulations include sector-specific effort limitations, extending the ‘no take’ marine protected area, reducing the recreational-sector bag limit to 5 fish person–1 day–1, implementing a commercial-sector bag limit, and increasing the minimum size limit to 30 cm TL. © 2017 NISC (Pty) Ltd.",,153-166,,2,39,,Afr.

Such management will require accurate studies of discards at sea. Reduction in rockfish discards should be a management priority in all fisheries which capture significant numbers of rockfish. The AFS further recommends establishment of adequate fishery independent surveys to more accurately assess and monitor rockfish stocks. The AFS supports the establishment of systems of Marine Protected Areas to protect the habitat of Pacific rockfish and to promote recovery of stocks. Such areas should be established along with traditional management measures to control fishing mortality. Regardless of the management strategy used, substantial decreases in fishing mortality must be achieved soon to avoid stock collapses.

Oil from this fifty-year-old wreck, submerged in 176 feet of water 17 miles off San Francisco, matched oil that had impacted thousands of birds and miles of shoreline since November 2001. It also matched oil from mystery spills in this area dating back to 1992. Now that the source of this extensive pollution was found, the next step seemed simple: remove the oil from the vessel. Yet there were many issues surrounding this vessel and its location that required significant cooperation with many agencies and trustees. The Luckenbach is an historic property, protected by the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). It is submerged in the Gulf of Farallones National Marine Sanctuary - one of the most biologically productive regions off the California coast and home to many sensitive resources including several listed species. The UC realized that dialogue with and among the natural resource trustee agencies was crucial to planning balanced operations that would remove the pollution source while providing the utmost protection available to the resources at risk. A task force was formed that allowed trustees to engage in discussions about the tradeoffs of initiating removal as quickly as possible while balancing the risk of harm that any incidental release during operations may cause to their resources of concern. One of the most exciting benefits of this cooperative effort was the shift in thinking beyond just responding to the incident to advanced planning of a response that would best enhance restoration and long-term recovery. In many responses, it is not always clear that everyone has the same priorities: the USCG may focus on recovering oil and mitigating damage, the responsible party wants to minimize costs, and the trustees want to protect and restore their resources. In this case, the trustees and USCG were clearly working together toward common goals: removing a source of chronic oil pollution while minimizing environmental impacts from the response.",,10100-10106,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Int.

However, protection of critical habitat is of paramount importance for reserve design. We present a case study as an example of a reserve design based on fine-scale habitats, the affinities of exploited species to these habitats, adult mobility, and the physical forcing affecting the dynamics of the habitats. These factors and their interaction are integrated in an algorithm that determines the optimal size and location of a marine reserve for a set of 20 exploited species within five different habitats inside a large kelp forest in southern California. The result is a reserve that encompasses ?42% of the kelp forest. Our approach differs fundamentally from many other marine reserve siting methods in which goals of area, diversity, or biomass are targeted a priori. Rather, our method was developed to determine how large a reserve must be within a specific area to protect a self-sustaining assemblage of exploited species. The algorithm is applicable across different ecosystems, spatial scales, and for any number of species. The result is a reserve in which habitat value is optimized for a predetermined set of exploited species against the area left open to exploitation. The importance of fine-scale habitat definitions for the exploited species off La Jolla is exemplified by the spatial pattern of habitats and the stability of these habitats within the kelp forest, both of which appear to be determined by ocean microclimate. © 2006 by the Ecological Society of America.",,945-962,,3,16,,Ecol.

Since it is unlikely that all management objectives will reach their optimum values simultaneously, an optimization approach is required to meet multiple, conflicting goals and to obtain an overall trade-off in terms of the conceived objectives. In this paper we propose a new model for optimizing the allocation of tourist infrastructures (refuges and camping sites), and apply it to a protected area in the European Alps, where tourism has grown considerably in recent years. To reach this goal, a complex model based on genetic algorithms was required (instead of a common multicriteria analysis) to obtain a complex interplay in the form of a dynamical simulation where candidate solutions are interactively evaluated. In accordance with local actors, we selected 18 quantifiable criteria encompassing all relevant tourist activities within the study area. These were translated into geographic information system (GIS) layers, submitted to a genetic optimization procedure and compared the performances of the optimized tourist allocations with those of existing infrastructures and with worst case scenarios. Resulting tourist allocations perform very well, while existing tourist sites behaved halfway between the fittest and the least fit genetic solutions, since they prioritized logistic and safety criteria rather than ecological ones. The proposed model is a very flexible and effective tool, easily exportable to any protected area, with implications for researchers and policymakers who aim to provide an effective balance between nature and human impact. © 2009 Elsevier B.V.

Although many conservation agencies have the protection of biodiversity as at least one of their major goals, information on the effects of fire on fauna in these biomes is fragmentary. Here we provide an overview of the published research undertaken to date on the effects of fire on fauna using examples from Southern Africa. We found that few studies have examined the effects of fire on amphibians or reptiles, and work on invertebrates is likewise sparse. The majority of studies that have been published are observational reports, and few experimental studies have been undertaken using an experimental fire regime, or over appropriately long time intervals. Replication was often not reported and where this was done, it was generally inadequate. The majority of the studies failed to report the area over which the studies were undertaken and sampling unit size was often not reported. Despite the importance of fire duration, ignition method, season and time of day of fire, few studies investigated these variables. We conclude that at present the information on the effects of fire on fauna in Southern Africa is fragmentary and, consequently, informed management decisions regarding the consequences of burning policies on the conservation of biodiversity both within and outside protected areas are problematic. We recommend that future studies, both in Southern Africa and elsewhere, be based on a suite of large-scale and experimental approaches (the latter firmly grounded in the principles of sound experimental design), use non-classical statistics to explore the effects of large-scale or unreplicated fires, and where possible include baseline information such as that gathered in fragmentation experiments.",,384-395,,4,28,,Austral Ecol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Africa; Amphibia; biodiversity; conservation management; Conservation management; experimental design; Experimental design; fauna; fire management; Fynbos; Grassland; Invertebrata; literature review; Reptilia; Savanna,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We evaluated long-term variation in rocky reef communities by comparing sites surveyed in 1993 and again in 2008. This research took place in Tigullio Gulf, an emblematic case study where various conservation measures, including a marine protected area, have been implemented to manage multiple human uses. Contrary to our prediction that protection should have favored ecosystem stability, we found that communities subjected to conservation measures (especially within the marine protected area) exhibited the greatest variation toward architectural complexity loss. Between 1993 and 2008, chronic anthropogenic pressures (especially organic load) that had already altered unprotected sites in 1993 expanded their influence into protected areas. This expansion of human pressure likely explains our observed changes in the benthic communities. Our results suggest that adaptive ecosystem-based management (EBM), that is management taking into account human interactions, informed by continuous monitoring, is needed in order to attempt reversing the current trend towards less architecturally complex communities. Protected areas are not sufficient to stop ecosystem alteration by pressures coming from outside. Monitoring, and consequent management actions, should therefore extend to cover the relevant scales of those pressures. © 2013 Parravicini et al.",,,,10,8,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,adaptive behavior; Aquatic Organisms; article; benthos; Biodiversity; bioremediation; CASCADES; case study; community structure; conservation biology; Conservation of Natural Resources; Coral Reefs; Data Collection; DISTURBANCE; environmental management; environmental monitoring; environmental protection; environmental sustainability; FACILITATION; HABITATS; Humans; IMPACTS; marine environment; MASS-MORTALITY; MEADOWS; nonhuman; organic chemistry; organism community; organismal interaction; prediction; REEF; sessile species; social behavior,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

For that purpose, the Mission promoted coordinated interventions including forest management, eradication of mosquitoes, construction of resorts, and transport infrastructure. This large-scale redevelopment significantly reshaped the littoral environment, severely impacted pre-existing forms of coastal activities and launched a new tourism industry. The legacy of the Mission, however, also included innovative land-use planning, which established protected areas and sought to contain urbanization.

Landscape dynamics are the result of multiple interacting biophysical and socioeconomic processes that are linked across a broad range of spatial, temporal, and organizational scales. Understanding and describing landscape dynamics poses enormous challenges and demands the use of new multiscale approaches to modeling. In this synthesis article, we present three regional systems-i.e., a forest system, a marine system, and an agricultural system-and describe how hybrid, bottom-up modeling of these systems can be used to represent linkages across scales and between subsystems. Through the use of these three examples, we describe how modeling can be used to simulate emergent system responses to different conservation policy and management scenarios from the bottom up, thereby increasing our understanding of important drivers and feedback loops within a landscape. The first case study involves the use of an individual-based modeling approach to simulate the effects of forest harvesting on the movement patterns of large mammals in Canada's boreal forest and the resulting emergent population dynamics. This model is being used to inform forest harvesting and management guidelines. The second case study combines individual and agent-based approaches to simulate the dynamics of individual boats and whales in a marine park. This model is being used to inform decision-makers on how to mitigate the impacts of maritime traffic on whales in the Saint Lawrence Estuary in eastern Canada. The third example is a case study of biodiversity conservation efforts on the Eyre Peninsula, South Australia. In this example, the social-ecological system is represented as a complex network of interacting components. Methods of network analysis can be used to explore the emergent responses of the system to changes in the network structure or configuration, thus informing managers about the resilience of the system. These three examples illustrate how bottom-up modeling approaches may contribute to a new landscape science based on scenario building, to find solutions that meet the multiple objectives of integrated resource management in social-ecological systems. © 2012 by the author(s).",,,,3,17,,Ecol.

The system is composed of a spatiotemporal, georeferenced database, a simulator (3MTSim) that reproduces the spatiotemporal movement of marine mammals and maritime traffic in the estuary, and data post-processing tools that can be used to analyse the output of 3MTSim. 3MTSim allows users to test different management scenarios for maritime traffic (e.g., area closures, speed limits, regulations concerning the observation of marine mammals) in order to assess their effects on navigational patterns which may influence marine mammal exposure to vessels. 3MTSim includes an individual-based model of marine mammal movement patterns that has been elaborated based on existing telemetry data on fin, blue, and beluga whales as well as on land-based theodolite tracking of humpback and minke whales. Observations recorded aboard research and whale-watching vessels have provided the spatial data necessary to estimate species' abundances and distribution maps that are used to initialise the whale model. Different types of vessels, including cargo ships and commercial whale-watching boats are also modelled individually, using an agent-based approach. The boat model represents the decision-making process of boat captains as a function of environmental conditions, the contextual setting, and their respective goals. An extensive database of real-time tracking data available for the different types of vessels, coupled with observations and interviews, has served in the elaboration of the boat model. In this paper, an overview of the entire system is presented and its effectiveness as a decision support tool is demonstrated via the results from a sample of scenario-based simulations. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,1403-1418,,12,26,,Environ.

They are, however, declining globally at an unprecedented rate. The damaging effects on Zostera marina (Common Eelgrass) seagrass beds in UK waters from mechanical recreational boating activities, namely anchoring and traditional swing mooring scour, suggest that measures of implementing management to mitigate human impacts need prioritising. Eco-moorings, a design that reduces the abrasion pressure of anchoring and mooring on the seabed, are such a mitigation method. In the UK, limited test sites and a lack of social acceptance of the technology compounds the limited uptake of eco-moorings to date. To advance the evidence base, this study focusses on a bespoke eco-mooring design deployed in 2017 to protect seagrass beds within a popular anchorage in Southwest England. We assess the behavioural and social responses of recreational boaters to the trial eco-mooring through 1) mapping of boating activity pre- and post-deployment and 2) structured questionnaires both on-site and online to local and national audiences respectively. Results of mapped boating activity demonstrated a shoreward distribution shift of anchoring away from the deployed eco-mooring, with 45.4% of all anchoring vessels directly within or within a range of potential influence of the seagrass bed. Through the deployment of the eco-mooring (where no mooring previously existed), an estimated additional 20% of anchoring pressure was alleviated from the seagrass bed. A total of 89.6% of on-site respondents reacted positively to the prospect of further eco-moorings being deployed locally. When questioned, 74.6% of on-site and 82.8% of online respondents demonstrated a preference for the physical action of mooring a vessel over anchoring. This suggests that implementation of eco-moorings in seagrass-dense regions could successfully alleviate anchor damage, especially where over half of respondents indicated an awareness of seagrass presence prior to anchoring their vessel and/or hesitance to cease visiting preferential anchoring sites (sheltered bays). This study recommends targeting conservation guidance at the powerboat community, the dominant group anchoring/mooring in the study area and identified as not currently engaged in seagrass education campaigns. It is proposed that management introduce incentives such as free of charge eco-moorings and/or anchoring charges in Marine Protected Areas/Voluntary No Anchor Zones to conserve and recover seagrass and other sensitive seabed habitats nationally. © 2019",,,,,180,,Ocean Coast.

This is particularly true in geographical areas where social/military events drive an under-reported, but potentially lethal, type of human-wildlife interaction. Waterbirds of Gharana Wetland Conservation Reserve consist mostly of threatened species. However, as occurs globally, 'protected' fauna near contested borders are sometimes affected by military forces. As part of a larger project to document regional avifauna, we report the seasonal status of waterbirds in order to help establish a baseline for comparing conservation of wildlife within contested areas to that of fauna in more secure refuges. We examined 24 avifauna surveys for relationships between seasons, temperature, individuals and species. Results: 28 of 61 waterbird species were rare. We found seasonal variations in individuals (F 3,731 = 3.82; P < 0.01) and species (F 3,11 = 5.81; P < 0.05) with a major influx in late winter, rather than autumn. Thus, while this sanctuary serves as an over-wintering site, it is also a stop-over site for high-altitude migrations. While providing this baseline, we offer a reminder that the welfare of wildlife in protected areas should be monitored seasonally, with the ongoing threats to their conservation, carefully documented. © 2018 The Author(s).",,,,1,11,,BMC Res.

The RESEX program aims to bring traditionally marginalized populations with natural resource dependent livelihoods into national development processes by empowering them to participate in governance and steward biodiversity conservation. We apply the social-ecological systems framework (SESF) and collective action theory to diagnose challenges for comanagement in the Caete-Teperacu marine RESEX near Bragança, Brazil, a multiuse mangrove estuary supporting a small-scale crab fishery. We conducted key informant interviews and build on over 20 years of research in the region to provide an overarching analysis of the challenges facing comanagement. We describe the variables from the SESF in the case context and find that many social and ecological variables interact in clusters over time, and these clusters can be identified as themes, including (1) social and political momentum supporting the RESEX; (2) shifting perceptions of local residents and fishers; (3) patron-client relationships and social-ecological traps; (4) challenges with institutional fit; and (5) the interactions between harvesting closures, compensation, and dependence on local natural resources. Furthermore, we use collective action theory to help explain the role that each variable plays in either hindering or enabling successful governance. Our findings suggest that institutional resilience is needed to make RESEX adaptive to shifting social and political momenta. It could do this by providing more platforms for communication, deliberation, and knowledge exchange among the relevant actors. We believe our findings reflect broader challenges facing RESEX implementation throughout Brazil, and lessons can be learned for MPAs facing difficulties with the implementation of comanagement worldwide. © 2018 by the author(s).",,,,3,23,,Ecol.

It draws on in-depth ethnographic fieldwork in the South Pacific island state of Vanuatu, using as its main methods semi-structured interviews, participant observation and freelisting. This article presents decisions and acts of the inhabitants of the rural village of Siviri regarding both the cultivation of food crops and fishing. It relates findings to a recent anthropological working definition of ‘sustainability’ that emphasises facilitating the necessary conditions for change by building and supporting diversity to address the unpredictability of the future. This definition is opposed to other current definitions that stress the preservation of existing norms. The research results presented here show that, with their decidedly future-oriented ideas and practices, the villagers of Siviri engaged with climate change adaptation projects and workshops regarding conservation and subsequently created new cultivation methods and established a marine conservation area. Additionally, they reduced their engagement in cultivation and diversified their livelihood practices. Referring to theoretical approaches connected with the ‘ontological turn’ in anthro-pology, it is argued that asking ontological questions reveals fundamental differences between the inhabitants of the village of Siviri and international and national governments and organisations in terms of their conceptualisations connected with sustainability. The article concludes that anthropology can make important contributions to discussions about sustainability that have the potential to improve the dialogue between different stakeholders by showing the alterity of conceptualisa-tions.

As a result, there is increasing interest in supporting reef resilience through restoration and adaptation interventions. Different options have been developed, each with differing impacts on the social-ecological system. Choosing which, if any, option to implement requires assessment of their expected performance against a potentially wide range of objectives. We propose an objectives framework that can help decision analysts and decision makers map intervention options and their consequences to what matters for reefs and people. We present an example hierarchy of strategic and tactical fundamental and means objectives for reef restoration. We show that such an objectives hierarchy in conjunction with the modelling of option performance allows restoration choices to be identified that can meet reef management objectives and produce desired outcomes for reef-dependent communities, other stakeholders, and members of society more broadly. Example objectives are derived from government and marine park policy documents as well as a broader set of related academic literature. We show that a hierarchy of clear and well-defined objectives linked to ecological, economic and social values is central to informing multi-objective decision making. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,251,,Ocean Coast.

Technical solutions are often applied that may impose inefficiencies across the fleet, even in periods or areas when the risk of bycatch is low. These may include gear specifically designed to avoid the bycatch which may also reduce the targeted catch, or designation of marine protected areas that exclude fishing from whole areas. In this article, we examine the effectiveness of a variable penalty system that can provide incentives for fishers to redirect their effort away from problem areas. The system is examined using a case study of fishery, which is currently subjected to gear and closure controls to limit bycatch of turtles and seabirds. An alternative incentive-based management policy using a series of differential hook penalties has been proposed as a flexible tool to discourage vessels operating in certain areas. The effects of various hook penalties and closures in key areas on fishing effort in those areas and elsewhere as well as vessel economic performance are assessed using a location choice model. The results suggest that incentive-based approaches may result in lower costs to industry than closures provided some level of residual bycatch is acceptable. © 2013 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.",,3880-3890,,27,45,,Appl.

However, the currently available knowledge about these areas and especially of stakeholder perceptions is scarce and limited to restricted geographic areas. The present study aims to address this gap by examining these factors in the Mediterranean and Black Seas using an extensive literature review and an online survey approach. We collated and examined a total of 208 published studies on socioeconomic impacts of MPAs and marine uses. We found that for fishing, the socioeconomic impacts of MPAs were generally perceived as negative for industrial fishing and positive for artisanal fishing. In the online survey, we collected ca. 100 responses and found that stakeholder perceptions on the impacts of MPAs differ across sectors and regions. Industrial fishing was perceived as being negatively impacted in the Black Sea, while most respondents from the Mediterranean Sea were neutral in their responses relating industrial fishing and MPAs. The impact of MPAs on artisanal and recreational fishing was generally viewed as neutral by respondents from the Black Sea, whereas most Mediterranean respondents indicated a positive impact of MPAs. We also found that perceptions of the major threats to MPAs differed across the Mediterranean and the Black Sea. Responses from the Black Sea were systematically shifted towards a more negative perception of threats to MPAs compared to those from the Mediterranean Sea. Illegal fishing and other illegal activities were considered to be the most relevant threats to MPAs by stakeholders in both regions. The mismatch found between evidence of MPA effectiveness and impacts from the scientific literature and the results of our survey suggests that within the framework of maritime spatial planning and ecosystem-based management, effective MPA planning should be informed by multiple sources across regions. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,01-Oct,,,133,,Ocean Coast.

In parallel with this shift has been the development of systematic conservation planning (SCP) tools that have increased our capacity to design MPAs to maximise biodiversity outcomes and to scale-up community-based initiatives into more comprehensive MPA networks. In Rodrigues, four Marine Reserves (no-take zones) in the north of the island were identified through participatory processes. A Marine Protected Area (multi-use), South East Marine Protected Area (SEMPA), has also been gazetted in the south of the island through a community-based approach. In order to verify and assess gaps in the stakeholder-based design, a Marine Reserve network was designed using the SCP tool Marxan using available spatial data on marine biotopes and fishing effort (FE) to achieve fisheries benefits and marine biodiversity protection. The Marxan analysis identified that only two of the four marine reserves achieve partly the objectives set and SEMPA contains planning units which can be considered as no take zones. This study shows the importance of using both stakeholder's knowledge and scientific input for a better design of MPAs. The results from the analyses can be used by decision makers to inform decisions in a scientific way by providing a set of scenarios from the Marxan analysis. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,213-220,,,130,,Ocean Coast.

This activity begun in the late 1990s after the National Park was created, the local community changed its main activity from traditional fishing to offer tourist facilities for observation of marine life; as a result, the economic benefits are now greater than ever before. However, these benefits have not been quantified or taken into account in the CPNP management; thus, the objective of this study was to estimate the specific economic value of diving with bull sharks by using a method of revealed preferences (travel cost) and calculating the consumer surplus (CS) of diving with bull sharks at CPNP as a tourist destination. We deducted the travel cost of each person per day through 250 on-site surveys directed to tourists who visited CPNP to dive with bull sharks. The economic analysis showed that the number of divers who travel specifically to CPNP for bull shark sighting represents 23% of the total tourists visiting the park. The recreational demand function with the econometric treatment of the Poisson model revealed a CS result of $694 USD per person per day with an average of a 4-day stay.

It is the unique town in Poland having in its limits over 30% of lake and river waters. The great potential of this fact has been used since ever for communication and transportation routes, for shipbuilding and port facilities. The XIX-century Szczecin was a significant industrial center, thanks to the location at Odra River and Dabie Lake. The negative result of industrialization was the heavy water pollution. In the recent years the inner - city waters are on one hand partly subject of protection as an Odra River Natural Park, Natura 2000 restricted area, but on the other hand more and more used for leisure and water sports. European Funds contribution made possible a severe limitation of water pollution by installation of ecologically advanced sewage purification plants. It was also possible due to the elimination of the old-type industry in the town and its surroundings and increase of ecological consciousness. Better quality of the water in the Dabie Lake and Odra River, on the edge to the city of Szczecin, attracts therefore touristic and leisure development and the growing welfare in Poland and Europe makes recreation facilities a new, attractive income source. The water-city edge project is aimed to transform the deteriorated brownfield at the Dabie Lake Waterfront into the place for health care, leisure and sport activities on the higher level of quality and proficiency. The paper describes the project ideas and visions. This project, still in development, shows the possibilities of alternative leisure developments to sea-coastal ones at the Baltic Sea Coast. It represents the method of combining different positive features of the climate and waterfront locations with the investment opportunities, what could contribute to a success of the one common, overall idea of leisure and sport center on the city edge. It shows an example of the investments in the hotel/sport/recreation/health care branches. The conclusion of the paper aims to prove, the necessary changes in the town planning goals structure, taking more seriously into account: the preferences of active people (spending free time for leisure, recreation, nature observations, health care and water sport), economic opportunities (foreign and domestic investors) and overall climate change in the Central Europe Region. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,471,,,,,,,,Institute of Physics Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 6 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

Many of these MPAs were established based on local-scale conservation and fisheries objectives without considering larger-scale ecological connections. The connectivity of reefs through larval dispersal is important in the regional-scale resilience against anthropogenic disturbances and is considered a significant criterion in planning for MPAs. In this study, we provide insights into the delineation of ecologically connected MPA networks using larval dispersal modeling and network analysis. We characterized the network properties of the Philippine coral reefs, organized as 252 reef nodes, based on the larval connectivity networks of a branching coral, sea urchin, and grouper. We then evaluated the distribution of the existing 1,060 MPAs relative to the connectivity patterns. All reef nodes were found to be highly interconnected with a mean shortest path ranging from 1.96 to 4.06. Reef nodes were then ranked according to their relative importance in regional connectivity based on five connectivity indices. Despite the between-organism and between-index variability in rankings, there were reefs nodes, mostly located offshore and at major straits, which consistently ranked high. We found that the distribution of existing MPAs partially capture some of the regional connectivity functions but there is a spatial mismatch between the primarily coastal MPAs and the high-ranking reef nodes. Furthermore, network partitioning identified subnetworks and dispersal barriers. The existing MPAs were found to be disproportionately distributed to a few subnetworks and that the largest subnetworks do not contain the greatest number of MPAs. Considering these gaps, we suggest expanding the coverage of protected areas especially in underrepresented reef networks to meaningfully capture national-scale connectivity and meet global conservation objectives. © Copyright © 2021 Pata and Yńiguez.",,,,,8,,Front.

Coastal communities have evolved a suite of restrictive practices to control marine offtake and there is considerable recent evidence of their effectiveness in protecting and enhancing resource stocks. However, traditionally imposed restrictions can vary considerably in their complexity and in their functional effectiveness. The indigenous communities of the Nicobar Islands are dependent on marine resources for sustenance, managing them with a range of traditionally imposed restrictions. These include limited entry to certain locations, closed seasons and areas, and restrictions on species, size-classes of fish and fishing methods. We tested the relative effectiveness of protection in areas managed under different traditional control regimes by comparing the abundance and biomass of targeted fish groups in managed and unmanaged areas. Our results indicate that reef sites with the strictest form of restriction – essentially no-go areas – had significantly higher abundance and biomass values of most functional groups of fishes compared with partially protected and control locations. In contrast, targeted food fish stocks did not differ from control locations in partially protected sites managed with even complex forms of traditional management. Ensuring that traditional harvest rules are complied is critical to the success of any management system, and our results suggest that they can be most strictly enforced in traditional no-go areas. Our work highlights the importance of critically evaluating the factors influencing traditional management systems to strengthen their ability to protect these reefs from unsustainable overharvest. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,53-63,,,133,,Ocean Coast.

In this paper we provide an explanation of action taken to support conservation, understanding and enjoyment of the historic environment, such as those sites that are legally protected as historic shipwreck sites, and other features that comprise the historic environment, but which are recognised and protected through other legal mechanisms e.g., military vessels and aeroplanes. It is apparent to us that when considering the management agenda for the marine environment attention is also given to archaeological material that predates tidal inundation, as well as the subsequent legacy of maritime activities. To support this approach we examine how the historic environment is defined and included in objectives, policy and law, such as the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009, as well as other European or international programmes to promote marine policy and spatial planning. In the years since the National Heritage Act 2002, and the empowerment of English Heritage to support marine projects, we assess the production of explanatory statements and guidance to inform protection in recognition of how change may affect historic environment features. In addition, it is apparent that extensive development is now taking place further offshore (e.g., renewable power projects) and we direct attention at how English Heritage's role is affected by legally defined maritime territorial limits that dictate interpretation of what the marine environment comprises and how such limits influence regulatory controls placed on the management of cultural heritage. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,342-348,,,45,,Mar.

Significant strides have been made over the past decade to expand the coverage, effectiveness and equitable management of these initiatives, fuelled by global commitments made by parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) in 2010, specifically Aichi Target 11 embedded within the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity (2011-2020). However, these strides have been skewed in favour of protected areas with other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs) largely playing second fiddle. The delay in defining what are OECMs and developing guidelines to clarify their form and nature, have been identified by several commentators as key reasons for them playing second fiddle. OECMs nonetheless remain a key component of the future global agenda with the draft Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework anticipating a target of ensuring that 'at least 30 percent globally of land areas and of sea areas, especially areas of particular importance for biodiversity and its contributions to people, are conserved through effectively and equitably managed, ecologically representative and well-connected systems of protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures and integrated into the wider landscapes and seascapes'. Efforts under the auspices of the CBD and International Union for the Conservation of Nature to introduce Scientific and Technical Advice on OECMs (including a definition) and Guidelines on Recognising and Reporting OECMs in 2018 and 2019 respectively, have brought much needed clarity relating the form and nature of OECMs. These efforts are, however, largely silent on the potential influence of law. Law may have a significant influence on OECMs, and this article has sought to scope this potential and develop understanding on it, with the aim of promoting the increased recognition of OECMs across the globe. It identifies an array of generic legal issues which domestic law and policymakers could use as an initial frame of reference to evaluate the current and potential influence of their domestic legal frameworks on OECMs. It uses several elements of the definition of OECMs to structure this scoping exercise, concluding that law has a significant potential influence on each. It acknowledges that: legal interventions need to be tailored to the specific domestic context; law brings both potential benefits and constraints and these need to be carefully managed; a blend of many different areas, spheres and levels of law may be of influence emphasising the need to promote legal alignment and integration; and that legal pluralism should be recognised and promoted where relevant as OECMs may frequently overlap areas subject to customary tenure and governance systems. © 2023 SOAS University of London.

Here, we addressed these issues and present a strategy for identifying priority marine areas for conservation in Brazil that would contribute to increasing species representation and achievement of conservation targets. Within this strategy, we accounted for (i) species range shifts due to climate change and their influence on species distribution, (ii) the lack of species geographical distribution data, and (iii) anthropic pressures on oceans. First, we built ecological niche models (ENMs) for 12 threatened starfish species in both present and future (2100) times using Maxent. We also quantified and mapped species range shifts. Second, we developed three conservation spatial solutions and compared the 10% top-ranked areas. The results showed that ENMs had a good performance in representing the distribution of species, even those that had few occurrence records. Our models forecasted a significant range expansion for the majority of species (10 out 12) by 2100. We found that the priority sites covering the top-ranked 10% in the study area identified in ours conservation spatial solutions would protect between 10.41% and 15.88%, on average, of suitable areas for the starfish species. Our results indicated priority sites for conservation less affected by anthropic pressures (~2%) when data on human impacts on oceans were incorporated into the spatial prioritization process. We identified a network of priority marine sites for conservation that minimized human influence and considered the effects of climate change on species distribution. We used threatened starfish species as a case study for illustrating our approach; however, such an approach could be applied to any taxonomic group, which supports the development of more effective conservation actions that represent biodiversity under such threats. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,177-188,,,161,,Ocean Coast.

Since their designation as Natura 2000 habitat types under the EU Habitats Directive, they have become an important conservation issue in Europe. Little supra-regional research has been conducted to date on their floristic and ecological diversity, syntaxonomy and geographic variation. We surveyed the geographical distribution and syntaxonomical variation of saline and brackish grasslands to highlight large-scale gradients in species composition, as well as underlying climatic and other abiotic factors. We discuss the resulting vegetation types in the context of northern Europe and review implications for conservation. Study area: Baltic Sea coast. Methods: We compiled a comprehensive plot-based vegetation dataset for the Baltic Sea coast and subsequently selected relevés by species composition and plot size. We classified 3,732 relevés, using modified TWINSPAN, identified differential species and syntaxa, and performed a DCA with post-hoc fitted intrinsic and climatic variables. We tested main differences in relevant factors for significance. Results: The classification resulted in 33 vegetation types of differing distribution range and area. Most common were the classes Juncetea maritimi and Molinio-Arrhenatheretea, with the classes Phragmito-Magnocaricetea, Cakiletea maritimae, Saginetea maritimae, Scheuchzerio palustris-Caricetea fuscae and Koelerio-Corynephoretea canescentis also present. Baltic Sea coastal grasslands vary in soil salinity and moisture and, to a lesser extent, in nutrient availability and base content. Conclusions: Variation in the plant communities reflects regional phytogeographical patterns. Communities most similar to north-west European coastal grassland types are characterized by euhaline to ?-mesohaline site conditions. Designations of the Natura 2000 habitat types H1330 and H1630 require revision. Many Baltic Sea coastal grassland plant communities include species threatened at the national level. © 2019 Gebrüder Borntraeger, 70176 Stuttgart, Germany.",,319-348,,4,49,,Phytocoenologia,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: E.

We aimed to predict areas of likely high foraging value from tracking environmental data and also to quantify overlap in foraging range between species. Hidden Markov models were used to differentiate between bouts of Area Restricted Search (ARS) assumed to be associated with areas of higher foraging value, and transit behaviours. Oceanographic and distance metrics associated with ARS activity were then used to calculate a habitat electivity index. A combined bootstrap/Monte Carlo scheme was employed to propagate uncertainty from the Hidden Markov models into the habitat prediction scheme. Distinct differences were predicted in the spatial distribution of foraging locations in different species, reflecting different dispersive abilities and foraging strategy. The extent of usage and foraging distribution was largely contained within Australian the Economic Exclusion Zone (EEZ).

To contribute to a better understanding of these challenges, we describe here part of a large-scale seagrass restoration program conducted in a Marine Park in Portugal. The goal of this study was to infer if it was possible to recover seagrass habitat in this region, in order to restore its ecosystem functions. To infer which methods would produce better long term persistence to recover seagrass habitat, three factors were assessed: donor seagrass species, transplant season, source location. Monitoring was done three times a year for 8 years, in which areas and densities of the planted units were measured, to assess survival and growth. The best results were obtained with the species Zostera marina transplanted during spring and summer as compared to Zostera noltii and Cymodocea nodosa. Long-term persistence of established (well rooted) transplants was mainly affected by extreme winter storms but there was evidence of fish grazing effects also. Our results indicate that persistence assessments should be done in the long term, as all transplants were successful (survived and grew initially) in the short term, but were not resistant in the long term after a winter with exceptionally strong storms. The interesting observation that only the largest (11 m2) transplanted plot of Z. marina persisted over a long time, increasing to 103 m2 in 8 years, overcoming storms and grazing, raised the hypothesis that for a successful shift to a vegetated state it might be necessary to overpass a minimum critical size or tipping point. This hypothesis was therefore tested with replicates from two donor populations and results showed effects of size and donor population, as only the larger planting units (PUs) from one donor population persisted and expanded. It is recommended that in future habitat restoration efforts large PUs are considered. © 2019 Paulo, Cunha, Boavida, Serrăo, Gonçalves and Fonseca.",,,,MAR,6,,Front. Mar.

However, concern remains for the increasing habitat loss and fragmentation, and the possible impacts of loss of connectivity between remnant vegetation. This study uses a range of diversity metrics to examine the biodiversity conservation status of the Sunshine Coast heathlands, in the South Eastern Queensland bioregion. The pre-clearing and remnant extent, and the protection status of the nine heath Regional Ecosystems were calculated. Fragmentation and connectivity were examined by comparing heath patch sizes, and by calculating the distance between patches, from pre-clearing estimates, until 2019. Diversity metrics for the Regional Ecosystems, including phylogenetic metrics, were tested for correlation with habitat extent, patch size, patch number and distance between patches. Of the pre-clearing extent, 62% of Sunshine Coast heathlands remain and 46% is protected in National Parks. Levels of protection in National Parks vary across the Local Government Areas, and between Regional Ecosystems, and the priority Regional Ecosystems for further protection were identified. There has been habitat loss resulting in reduced patch sizes, and fragmentation due to urbanization, but the number of patches of heath remains intact, and connectivity in terms of distance between patches remains stable. Phylogenetic dispersion, but not diversity, was correlated with the extent of heath and the number of patches. This highlights the opportunity to maintain biodiversity in these heathlands, with the value of small patches of heath identified as key to maintaining connectivity in the coastal lowlands, distinctiveness in the montane heaths and dunes, and overall phylogenetic dispersion. This study has shown how a variety of diversity metrics and landscape analyses can inform on priority areas for biodiversity conservation in the heathlands of an increasingly urbanized region. © 2024 The Authors.

This study uses Autonomous Reef Monitoring Structures (ARMS) and amplicon sequencing methodologies, targeting mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I and 18S rRNA genes, to investigate changes in the cryptic reef biodiversity. ARMS, deployed at 11 sites across a near-to off-shore gradient in the Red Sea were dominated by Porifera (sessile fraction), Arthropoda and Annelida (mobile fractions). The two primer sets detected different taxa lists, but patterns in community composition and structure were similar. While the microhabitat of the ARMS deployment affected the community structure, a clear cross-shelf gradient was observed for all fractions investigated. The partitioning of beta-diversity revealed that replacement (i.e.The substitution of species) made the highest contribution with richness playing a smaller role. Hence, different reef habitats across the shelf are relevant to regional diversity, as they harbor different communities, a result with clear implications for the design of Marine Protected Areas. ARMS can be vital tools to assess biodiversity patterns in the generally neglected but species-rich cryptic benthos, providing invaluable information for the management and conservation of hard-bottomed habitats over local and global scales. © 2018 The Author(s).",,,,1,8,,Sci.

However, to enable assessment of complex concepts such as connectivity and reef dynamics, baseline assemblage characteristics must first be established. This study used baited remote underwater video (BRUV) technology to investigate the assemblage structure of predatory and scavenging fishes across 4 mesophotic reef bands at ca. 30 to 82 m depth, at 2 locations 25 km apart in subtropical eastern Australia. We aimed to quantify patterns in predatory and scavenging fish assemblage structure at these reefs across the continental shelf and relate this to putative structuring environmental variables. Strong cross-shelf gradients were identified in species richness and overall assemblage composition. While the pattern of latitudinal affiliation did not change across the shelf, predatory and scavenging fish assemblages at non-adjacent reefs were statistically distinct (PERMANOVA interaction term p = 0.012), and best (but not well) explained by depth alone (BIOENV ń = 0.396). A high proportion (15 to 45%) of the fish species at each reef band were found only within that band. These cross-shelf trends contrasted with those described from more complex shelf topography such as at the Solitary Islands (250 km south), and did not match published patterns of epibenthic assemblage structure.

The case study site is Lyme Bay (approx. 2460km2), in the western English Channel. An area of 240km2 in Lyme Bay was designated 'closed to bottom dredging' in July 2008 with the aim of protecting reefs which are an important habitat for Eunicella verrucosa (pink sea fan). The effects of using different substrate data resolution on the selection of sites to protect a range of biotopes using the Marxan package are determined. The effect of including a closed area on the efficiency of a marine reserve network is also investigated. Findings suggest that substrate data did not capture the biodiversity of the area and that using no data at all was equally effective. If low resolution data are all that are available then other options, such as expert opinion, or other data, such as activity use information could be used instead. Including a predefined closed area into the analysis led to an increase in area required to meet conservation goals using high resolution biotope data. It also increased the area of the reserve using the three substrate layers with no increase in protection for biotopes. This suggests that when designing networks of marine protected area sites, including current protected areas may be inefficient, resulting in larger areas being protected with no increased conservation of marine biodiversity. Policy makers must be prepared to adapt management in light of these findings and be aware of the shortcomings of the data available for use in marine conservation planning. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,333-341,,,45,,Mar.

We evaluated the degree of protection that 2 closed areas were providing to individual spawning Sepioteuthis australis and assessed the extent of exchange between these coastal regions, separated by only 25 to 32 km. VR2 acoustic receivers were placed along the boundaries of closed areas on the east coast of Tasmania, Australia, across smaller bays within these areas, and on individual seagrass beds. Over 77 000 detection events were obtained from 46 individuals over durations of up to 129 d, demonstrating that individuals spawn over several months, traveling 100s of km within the spawning areas during this time. Squid were detected at closed area boundaries; however, most were detected again on other receivers within the closed area, indicating that although squid had moved within boundary vicinities, they had not actually left the protected area. Closures of critical spawning regions during times of heightened reproductive activity will therefore achieve the desired effect of protecting spawners and will allow for egg-laying. Clearly, inshore squid species can be highly mobile during an extended spawning phase and any assessment of the management benefits of closed areas needs to explicitly consider the temporal and spatial scales of the closed area in question. © Inter-Research 2006.",,Jan-15,,,328,,Mar.

Assessments of fishing impacts on Natura 2000 sites require basic data on the conservation status of individual habitats and species, as well as data for fine-scale distributions of ongoing fishing activities. This paper describes and discusses the process used by the EMPAS project in developing fishery-management plans for each Natura 2000 site in German offshore waters.",,155-169,,1,66,,ICES J. Mar.

We used photo-identification techniques and a novel remote underwater camera system to examine the population sizes, patterns of residency and habitat use of oceanic (Mobula birostris) and reef (Mobula alfredi) manta rays in Seychelles (5.42°S; 53.30°E) between July 2006 and December 2018. Sightings of M. birostris were infrequent (n = 5), suggesting that if aggregation areas for this species exist, they occur outside of the boundary of our study. A total of 236 individual M. alfredi were identified across all surveys, 66.5% of which were sighted at D’Arros Island (Amirante Group) and 22.5% at St. François Atoll (Alphonse Group). Males and females were evenly represented within the identified population. M. alfredi visited a cleaning station at D’Arros Island less frequently during dawn and dusk than at midday, likely due to the adoption of a crepuscular foraging strategy. The remote and isolated nature of the Amirante and Alphonse Group aggregation areas, coupled with the lack of a targeted mobulid fishery in Seychelles, suggests that with appropriate regulations and monitoring, the marine protected areas gazetted within these two groups will benefit the conservation of M. alfredi in Seychelles. © The Author(s) 2024.",,,,4,171,,Mar.

The area of about 550 km2 is shared by the three partner countries Croatia, Italy, and Slovenia. For these countries, the Northern Adriatic is very important in terms of the interactions among different uses of the sea (coastal and maritime tourism, freight and passenger transport, fisheries, aquaculture, oil and gas, energy and communications, sand mining, cultural heritage, protected areas). In this context, accidental marine pollution, especially oil spills, is a dangerous threat with potentially devastating environmental and economic consequences. This cooperation process will lead to smoother communication and interoperability by creating an operational sub-regional mechanism that is immediately available to the countries of the Northern Adriatic and the EU and can be easily transferred to the other countries of the Adriatic and Ionian Seas. The result is the NAMIRS (North Adriatic Maritime Incident Response System) project, which is co-funded under the EU Civil Protection Mechanism. Through a holistic approach to marine pollution management at sea and onshore, NAMIRS will help to improve prevention and protection from the effects of maritime disasters in the North Adriatic Sea by establishing a common oil spill contingency plan. The objectives of the project are, therefore: risk assessment for the Northern Adriatic and a new approach to identifying the sensitivity and vulnerability of coastal areas using the subject opinions of stakeholders from an environmental, geomorphological and socioeconomic point of view, mapping of existing oil spill prevention resources, improvement of existing resources, drafting guidelines for the revision and updating of the sub-regional contingency plan, development of standard operating procedures and finally testing of the SOPs through exercises. An inventory of existing oil spill prevention and coastal clean-up assets and equipment was made, with the aim of integrating these resources and the different layers of coastal vulnerability into a standard electronic chart in the form of a GIS or an app which would be used by first responders to protect critical areas from an oil spill. © Proceedings - 45th AMOP Technical Seminar on Environmental Contamination and Response.",,196-210,,,,,,,,,,,Environment Canada,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Proc. - AMOP Tech.

This paper describes how a large (15 years) program of transdisciplinary research was used to successfully measure MPA management effectiveness (ME)—how well an MPA is managed, how well it is protecting values, and how well it is achieving the various goals and objectives for which it was created. This paper addresses the co-production and uptake of monitoring-based evidence for assessing ME in coastal MPAs by synthesizing the experiences of this program conducted with MPA managers. I present the main outcomes of the program, many were novel, and discuss four ingredients (learned lessons) that underpinned the successful uptake of science during and after the research program: (i) early and inclusive co-design of the project with MPA partners and scientists from all disciplines, (ii) co-construction of common references transcending the boundaries of disciplines, and standardized methodologies and tools, (iii) focus on outcomes that are management-oriented and understandable by end-users, and (iv) ensuring that capacity building and dissemination activities occurred during and persisted beyond the program. Standardized monitoring protocols and data management procedures, a user-friendly interface for indicator analysis, and dashboards of indicators related to biodiversity, uses, and governance, were the most valued practical outcomes. Seventy-five students were trained during the projects and most of the monitoring work was conducted with MPA rangers. Such outcomes were made possible by the extended timeline offered by the three successive projects. MPA managers’ and scientists a posteriori perceptions strongly supported the relevance of such collaboration. Local monitoring and assessment meets the needs of MPA managers, and forms the basis for large-scale assessments through upscaling. A long-term synergistic transdisciplinary collaboration between coastal MPA managers and research into social-ecological systems (SESs) would simultaneously (i) address the lack of long-term resources for coastal monitoring and SES-oriented research; (ii) increase science uptake by coastal managers, and (iii) benefit assessments at higher levels or at broader geographic scales. © Copyright © 2020 Pelletier.",,,,,7,,Front.

Values include ecosystem services and functions, biodiversity, landscape and geomorphological features, as well as cultural, socio-economic, and research- and education-related aspects. Assessing MPA effectiveness has become a crucial issue as many MPAs are designed all over the world in response to international commitments regarding biodiversity conservation and resource management. Such strong commitments cannot be achieved through ineffective MPAs, either because they are poorly enforced (“paper parks”) or poorly designed. Pressure to evaluate management effectiveness is also increasing in a world where accountability and performance evaluation is more and more compelling. While several previous chapters have focused on the assessment of MPA effects, I here consider the issues of assessment in the light of decision support for MPA management. Rather than assessing MPA effects, the focus is thus on assessing MPA effectiveness with respect to intended management objectives. © Cambridge University Press 2011.",,247-290,,,,,,,,,,,Cambridge University Press,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Marine Protected Areas: A Multidisciplinary Approach DOI: 10.1017/CBO9781139049382.014,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Therefore, an adequate spatial delimitation and understanding of both and their linkages are necessary in order to be able to establish conservation policies. Normally, biodiversity hotspots are a typical target for those policies but, generally, geosites are not taken into account. Thus, this paper aims to fill this gap by providing an easily replicable method for the identification and integration of the geosites and the biodiversity hotspots in a Network for Integrative Nature Conservation that highlights their linkages. The method here presented has been applied to Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve situated in southeastern of the Bay of Biscay. The obtained results indicate that some geosites that are not directly related with biodiversity hotspots remain unprotected. Thus, from the study carried out, it can be stated that we conserving just the biodiversity hotspots is not enough to conserve the whole natural heritage of a protected area, as some plots interesting due to their relevant geoheritage remain unprotected. Therefore, it is necessary to fully integrate geosites into the planning documents of protected areas as a part of an ecosystem approach. The ecosystem approach recognizes the integrity of abiotic and biotic elements in nature conservation policies. Moreover, the proposed framework and the innovative methodology can be used as an easy input to identify priority areas for conservation, to improve the protected areas conservation planning, and to demonstrate the linkages between biodiversity hotspots and geosites. © 2016, Springer Science+Business Media New York.",,325-337,,2,59,,Environ.

However, anthropogenic activities, excessive resource use and coastal ecosystems' depletion have taken their toll on ecological settings and altered communities' livelihoods. This paper describes how key informants perceive local governance's role in coastal ecosystem health. We applied semi-structured interviews (n = 17) to key informants from artisanal fisheries, community tourism projects, and natural resources conservation programs in three socio-ecological systems (SES). Most stakeholders belong cooperative societies (76.5%). While family members comprise both Isla Arena-RCBR SES 1 and Isla Aguada-LTFFPA SES 3, Campeche PBR SES 2 does not follow this pattern. Cooperatives generally pursue two economic activities (52.9%): conservation and tourism, or fisheries and tourism. In SES 1 and SES 3 most cooperatives grant information to members for decision-making and apply norms in a transparent way. Those key users have skillful knowledge of natural resources conservation, and can identify or participate in ecosystem conservation projects, such as mangrove restoration. The most consistent attributes between them are: accountability and transparency in decision making, and knowing how to perceive, locate, and sustainably use high environmental value areas. However, long-term conservation goals for many SES actors remain key objectives to achieve. While all three SES acknowledge environmental change through time, such as decreased fishery capture indices and coastal erosion, plastic and glass containers pollution levels pose the most severe risk in ecosystems health. All SES key users worry about environmental changes due to excessive fishing, and this factor remains a priority in order to balance local demand. Because this is an extremely complex, multi-causal problem, coastal communities, local government, and the academic sector must work together to achieve sustainable goals. © 2023",,,,,242,,Ocean Coast.

Yet, debate still exists on the effectiveness of MPAs in achieving ecological and societal objectives. Although the literature provides significant evidence of the ecological effects of MPAs within their boundaries, much remains to be learned about the ecological and social effects of MPAs on regional and seascape scales. Key to improving the effectiveness of MPAs, and ensuring that they achieve desired outcomes, will be better monitoring that includes ecological and social data collected inside and outside of MPAs. This can lead to more conclusive evidence about what is working, what is not, and why. Eight authors were asked to write about their experiences with MPA effectiveness. The authors were instructed to clearly define ""effectiveness"" and discuss the degree to which they felt MPAs had achieved or failed to be effective. Essays were exchanged among authors and each was invited to write a shorter ""counterpoint."" The exercise shows that, while experiences are diverse, many authors found common ground regarding the role of MPAs in achieving conservation targets.

Therefore, connectivity between habitat patches is becoming even more important. China began building national parks with the primary purpose of protecting nationally representative natural ecosystems and maintaining the integrity of their structure, processes and functions. Research is necessary to improve the internal connectivity of national parks and to propose suggestions for existing functional zoning and biological corridors. In this study, Qianjiangyuan National Park was selected as an example park, and landscape fragmentation was evaluated exponentially and simulated visually. The habitat characteristics of protected species in the region, morphological spatial pattern analysis and the delta of the probability of connectivity were used together to identify key habitat patches and their importance levels in the study area. Potential habitat corridors in the region were then obtained using least-cost path analysis and gravity modeling methods based on the distribution of key habitat and the migration costs of target species. The results of this study show that the disturbed landscape of the study area is dominated by tea plantations and drylands, with central roads being an important factor affecting the overall landscape connectivity. In terms of the distribution of key habitat patches, the mountains have a high value. In terms of area, their size is not directly proportional to their importance for maintaining landscape connectivity in the region, but large area patches are generally of higher importance. In terms of distance, key habitats that are closer to each other have a stronger correlation and a greater possibility for species migration. Combined with the functional zoning of Qianjiangyuan National Park, the setting of strictly protected areas and recreational areas is reasonable, and traditional use areas and ecological conservation areas could be appropriately adjusted according to the distribution of key habitats. The important corridor in the middle of the ecological conservation area is crucial for the overall connectivity of the national park, and the connectivity between strict protected areas will depend on successful protection of the ecological conservation area.",,,,11,13,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000660761400001,,,,,,,forest ecosystem; gravity model; INDEXES; landscape connectivity; least-cost path method; MANAGEMENT; MARINE PROTECTED AREA; MODEL; morphological spatial pattern; national park of China,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Fish eggs and larvae, which aggregate in high numbers in a limited area, can be particularly vulnerable to negative environmental impacts. The increasing pressure on the fishery resources in Zhejiang fishing grounds have led to a sharp decline in the resources and damaged the structure of fish communities. In 2017, the government established the Qixing Islands and other 9 spawning ground reserves to protect and repair the resources of the main economic fish species. The Qixing Islands are a group of outer reefs in the southernmost part of Zhejiang Province. Located at the intersection of Taiwan Warm Current, Zhejiang and Fujian coastal currents, and the Kuroshio Current, the waters around these islands provide suitable hydrographic environment and abundant food resources, making it an ideal spawning and nursery ground for many fish species. The fish eggs and larvae phase marks a crucial period in early fish life as it is a highly sensitive and vulnerable stage. Changes in its abundance can directly impact population recruitment. Therefore, understanding the community structure of fish eggs and larvae is of great significance for conserving and utilizing marine fish resources. Additionally, fish community structures respond to the changes in environmental factors in the waters where they are located. At present, limited research has been conducted on fish eggs and larvae in the Qixing Islands spawning ground reserve. This study aimed to explore the correlation between the species composition of fish eggs and larvae and their relationship with environmental factors in the spawning ground reserve of Qixing Islands. Samples were collected during six cruises conducted in 2018 (April, May, and November) and 2019 (April, May, and November) using a large plankton net. These samples were then analyzed to assess the species composition, spatio-temporal distribution, community structure, and their relationship with environmental factors of fish eggs and larvae in this area. A total of 1490 eggs and 278 larvae were collected, belonging to 9 orders, 26 families, and 60 species. The most prevalent species of eggs included Harpodon nehereus, Konosirus punctatus, whereas those of larvae included Engraulis japonicus and Stolephorus commersonnii. The spatio-temporal distribution of fish eggs and larvae exhibited a non-stationary characteristic, primarily in the eastern part of the surveyed area. Moreover, there was a higher density of fish eggs and larvae in 2019 than in 2018. Cluster analysis and nonmetric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) sorting results indicated a highly significant difference (P= 0.001) in the cluster composition of eggs and larvae, and the community structure was characterized by obvious regional division. Mantel test correlation analysis and redundancy analysis showed that environmental factors such as temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen were closely related to the distribution of fish eggs and larvae. The study indicates that in the early stages of establishing protected areas, there has been a positive impact on the replenishment and restoration of early-stage fish resources. However, the area is predominantly characterized by small-sized and low economic value fish. In light of existing measures for the recovery of fisheries resources, it is recommended to further strengthen the conservation efforts for economically important species and promote their rational development and utilization. Spawning peaked during spring, with the reserve being predominantly populated by warm-temperature or warm-water species of fish during both spring and autumn. Less significant and smaller species dominate over those considered more significant and larger within the community. The spatial distribution trend indicated that the eastern part of the surveyed sea area was closer to the closed area line, followed by coastal areas and central region. Eggs were mainly concentrated in the waters around the closed area line, and larvae were densely distributed in coastal waters. Temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen influenced the distribution of eggs and larvae. The community structure of eggs and larvae in the spawning ground reserve of Qixing Islands was in a state of dynamic change, and the establishment of the reserve played a positive role in restoring the early resources of fish. The reserve remains the spawning and nursery ground for most fish species. Consequently, resource protection must be strengthened and rational development and utilization of economically important fish species must be undertaken by building upon the existing restoration measures used for fisheries resources. © (2023), (Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences).

Catch-and-effort data have been collected sporadically from the commercial linefishery since 1910 and the recreational linefishery since 1970. The number of commercial vessels increased from 10 in 1910 to 140 in 1995, and effective commercial effort continues to increase, despite a limit placed on the number of vessels in 1985. Recreational participation escalated from 20 skiboats in 1948 to 2 000 in 1995 and entry to this sector remains unlimited. Introduction of the beach-launched, trailable skiboat in 1945 resulted in a rapid expansion of effort to coastal areas that previously functioned as harvest refugia for resident reef fish. Total catch has declined, despite increased effort, as has catch per unit effort (cpue). There have also been substantial changes in catch composition and catches have been sustained by sequential target switching from large endemic reef fish such as seventyfour Polysteganus undulosus, red steenbras Petrus rupestris and rockcods Epinephelus spp., to smaller sparids, such as slinger Chrysoblephus puniceus, santer Cheimerius nufar and blueskin Polysteganus coeruleopunctatus, and shoaling migrants, such as king mackerel Scomberomorus commerson, geelbek Atractoscion aequidens and kobs Argyrosomus spp. The linefish resources off KwaZulu-Natal have long been incapable of sustaining the fishing effort in the region and most resident species are now overexploited. Existing linefish management measures have not been successful in limiting fishing mortality to sustainable levels and existing limits on commercial permits and recreational launches will have to be substantially reduced if this is to be achieved. Bag limits may also have to be substantially reduced, particularly for endemic reef fish, to rebuild stocks to sustainable levels. Given the difficulty of implementing such controls, the maintenance of a number of large, suitably sited marine reserves appears to offer one of the few practicable chances of conserving the endemic reef fish stocks of KwaZulu-Natal.",,51-76,,21,,,S.

However, vulnerable habitats rarely become MPAs due to conflicting interests such as fishing. We propose a spatial framework to help researchers and managers determine optimal conservation areas in a multi-species fishery, while also considering the economic relevance these species may have in a given society, even in data poor situations. We first set different ecological criteria (i.e. species resilience, vulnerability and trophic level) to identify optimal areas for conservation and restoration efforts, which was based on a traditional conservationist approach. We then identified the most economically relevant sites, where the bulk of fishery profits come from. We overlapped the ecologically and economically relevant areas using different thresholds. By ranking the level of overlap between the sites, representing different levels of conflicts between traditional conservation and fishing interests, we suggest alternatives that could increase fishers' acceptance of protected areas. The introduction of some flexibility in the way conservation targets are established could contribute to reaching a middle ground where biological concerns are integrated with economic demands from the fishing sector. © 2018 The Author(s).",,,,1,8,,Sci.

RFMOs are assessed on breadth of management frameworks and inclusion of best available science in policy frameworks. The assessment method builds upon a previously published framework, but is expanded to capture organizational attributes associated with an effective response to climate change. The results of the RFMO assessment suggest that generally, RFMO policy frameworks are comprehensive, and seem to possess most elements required to achieve resource management goals under climate change. The study hypothesizes that the legal (i.e. issues of compliance and enforcement, sovereignty, decision-making rules) and political factors (i.e. factors intrinsic to common-pool resources) characterising the management of transboundary and high seas fisheries are predominately responsible for this achievement gap rather than RFMO management framework comprehensiveness. To further promote effective resource management and desired outcomes during climate change, the study makes four recommendations: (1) prioritize performance evaluation from a climate change perspective, (2) continue enhancement of enforcement and monitoring strategies, (3) increase the designation of marine protected areas (MPAs) and (4) include political analysis of decision-making processes in RFMOs. The complex governance and political factors affecting high seas and transboundary fisheries management under climate change underscores the importance of the upcoming Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdictions (BBNJ) treaty for its potential to support the conservation of high seas marine living resources in parallel with RFMOs. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,13-20,,,92,,Mar.

The Marikina Watershed, one of the most critical watersheds in the Philippines, has been exposed to economic and population growth resulting in landscape modification and water quality degradation. This led to establishment of the Upper Marikina River Basin Protected Landscape (UMRBPL) to rehabilitate the watershed ecosystem. To strengthen this conservation initiative, we aimed to assess whether the establishment of UMRBPL has been effective in conservation of benthic macroinvertebrate diversity in streams of the Marikina Watershed. Sixteen streams, eight from UMRBPL and eight from adjoining unprotected areas, were monitored for benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages and their habitat environments, such as pH, water temperature, dissolved oxygen, total dissolved solids, conductivity, salinity, and canopy openness. Principal component analysis and non-metric multidimensional scaling based on the environmental variables and biological metrics, respectively, revealed that habitat quality and benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages significantly differed between the protected and unprotected streams, with the former having better environment and higher biodiversity. More precisely, protected streams have significantly higher dissolved oxygen and lower canopy openness and material loadings as compared to unprotected streams. Consequently, taxon richness was four-fold higher in protected streams while stream quality indices based on abundance of key invertebrate groups (EPT and EPTC) were ten-fold higher in protected streams, as compared to unprotected streams. This study demonstrates that freshwater protected areas play crucial roles in the conservation of stream ecosystems and biodiversity under rapid urbanization in developing countries, like the Philippines.  © 2019 by University of Hawai'i Press.

Among the 10 recognized geographic regions, the total number of herpetofaunal species ranges from a low of 27 in the Baja California Coniferous Forest Region to 84 in the Gulf Islands Region. The individual species occupy from one to 10 regions (x? = 3.3). The Gulf Islands Region is of the greatest significant conservation importance, inasmuch as it contains the largest overall number of species (84), the largest number of single-region species (39), and the greatest number of peninsular endemics (50). A similarity dendrogram based on the Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Averages (UPGMA) indicates that the two most closely related regions are the Central Gulf Coast Region and the Arid Tropical Region, while the most distantly related region is the Baja California Coniferous Forest Region. Among the distributional categories, the greatest number of species are the non-endemics (81 of 172, or 47.1%), followed by the peninsular endemics (77, 44.8%), and finally, the non-natives (14, 8.1%). The principal environmental threats to the herpetofauna of the Baja California Peninsula are land conversion and habitat loss, water diversion and overuse, invasive species, livestock grazing, illegal trade, off-road activities, infectious diseases, and climate change. We assessed the conservation status of the native species by employing the SEMARNAT, IUCN, and EVS systems. Of the 158 native species, 85 are included in NOM-059-SEMARNAT, 15 are in the IUCN Threatened categories, and 76 have high EVS values. Two Relative Herpetofaunal Priority (RHP) methods were used to identify the rank order significance of the 10 geographic regions, and the highest ranks for both methods were obtained for the Gulf Islands Region. Thirty protected areas are located in the Baja California Peninsula, and they comprise almost one-half of the total area. All but eight of the 158 native herpetofaunal species are represented within the system of protected areas. Few herpetofaunal surveys of the protected areas have been completed thus far, so this is a major conservation goal for the future. © 2023 Peralta-García et al.

A group of dune lakes in the state of Veracruz, Mexico, was decreed a Ramsar site and/or a state natural reserve. The objective of this study was to characterize and determine a baseline for these water bodies, both urban and rural, comparing them and establishing the guidelines for their management. The study points out the different threats and actual conditions of rural and urban dunelakes and the need for specific management practices. Our hypothesis stated that human activities around these lakes have an important impact and modify water quality, and that contact with the water table acts as a passive means of restoration. The water of 25 lakes was sampled to determine its quality, and wetland vegetation cover was monitored over time. Water quality was the main difference between urban and rural dune lakes; the latter, surrounded by cattle ranching activities and plantations, have lower concentrations of nitrates, ammonium, orthophosphates and total phosphorus. For management purposes, the lakes were divided into three groups (with subgroups) depending on their water quality, whether they are urban or rural, their size, whether or not they form part of the Ramsar site and/or natural reserve, or lie within the range of expansion of the Port of Veracruz. The management recommendations made for each lake are based on generating and applying current regulations, the enforcement of the law, carrying out infrastructure work, conservation and restoration actions, environmental education, organization and training. These lakes are important natural capital for the city, but management plans and ample participation by society are urgently needed. © 2019, Springer Nature B.V.",,445-460,,2,23,,J. Coast.

Their success depends upon their acceptance by implicated stakeholders and on the integration of the stakeholder groups into their management. This integration is especially important with regard to fishermen, whose interests are the most directly affected by MPAs. The relational coordination method posits that effective communication and supportive relationships among stakeholders result in positive stakeholder behaviors and a more effective management of the system. Applying its principles, we designed a survey to evaluate the satisfaction of fishermen associated with five MPAs in the Spanish Mediterranean and determine what mechanisms affect fishermen’s acceptance of MPAs. Our results demonstrate that effective communication is particularly important for good supportive relationships and satisfaction among fishermen and other stakeholder groups, as well as satisfaction with the MPA. Sharing objectives with fishermen through timely communication is the primary mechanism to improve fishermen's satisfaction and ameliorate perceptions towards MPA. To address this issue, we recommend more substantial integration of fishermen in the co-management of MPAs. © 2022, The Author(s).",,1520-1534,,6,51,,Ambio,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,animal; Animals; communication; Communication; Conservation of Natural Resources; ecosystem; Ecosystem; Effective communication; environmental protection; fish; Fisheries; fishery; Fishes; Goals; interpersonal communication; Marine conservation; marine ecosystem; marine park; Marine protected areas; Mediterranean Sea; motivation; Personal Satisfaction; Relational coordination framework; satisfaction; spatiotemporal analysis; stakeholder; Supportive relationships,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The geoenvironmental mapping defined eleven units distributed in five domains, which, together with the EGVs, were used as the bases for the assessment of the local geodiversity. The use and occupation maps demonstrated anthropic threats and impacts to the EGVs, linking urban growth, tourism, and mining activities.

Among the principal spatial attributes to be considered, connectivity has received particular emphasis in response to the escalating threat of habitat loss and fragmentation. Connectivity is an intrinsic property of networks. Consequently, we have observed the gradual development of the concept of reserve networks, enlisting also tools from the mathematical branch of network theory. Here, we first outline three key aspects of reserve selection for connectivity conservation based on network analysis. 1) It may be based on the application of topological indices, which take into consideration only the geographical position of the habitat patches, or area-weighted indices, which add a premium to larger patches. 2) It may be done through single-node analysis, where the relative importance of patches is evaluated individually, or with the more efficient multi-node analysis, where we search for the optimal group of patches that best complement each other in the role of maintaining connectivity. 3) The goal of the selection may be to avoid fragmentation of the population into isolated portions, or to ensure that reachability is maintained to all habitat patches, including peripheral sites. In previous studies, we had introduced multi-node analysis to the prioritization of reserves, using fragmentation and reachability indices, but these were limited to topology only. Here, we present an improved approach where multi-node prioritization is performed with area-weighted fragmentation. We apply it to 20 bird species in Catalonia, Spain. In comparison with single-node and/or topological fragmentation, we observed here a decentralization of the selected reserve sets: they included not only the main core population, but also secondary clusters of well-connected habitat. This may potentially bring two added advantages to the reserve network: spreading of risk, and inclusion of a wider variety of local genetic profiles. We propose combining this approach with topological reachability, to account for peripheral populations and maximize accessibility to the entire network. © Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest.",,176-185,,2,19,,Community Ecol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Akademiai Kiado Rt.,,,,Aves; CENTRALITY; Conservation priorities; CORRIDORS; Ecological networks; Graph theory; Habitat connectivity; Habitat fragmentation; INDEXES; MODELS; Multi-node centrality; Multinode centrality; NATAL DISPERSAL; Natura 2000; NETWORK; PATCHES; Probability of Connectivity index; Protected Areas; Reserve design; SELECTION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Within this context, the main aim of this study was to analyze the role of this units as a potential management framework for safety and comfort of local beachgoer. Unplanned territorial occupation, reduced investment in public services, and overcrowding are similar at both beaches, whereas the pressure level is lower on the estuarine beach of Pesqueiro, where the recreational activities are more closely monitored and controlled. Given the different pressures found on Ajuruteua and Pesqueiro beaches, which have a direct influence on the socio-environmental state of these coastal environments, and on the quality of tourist-recreational activities, it will be necessary to adopt appropriate approaches to resolve these problems and guarantee the adequate development of both the local community and tourist activities, in particular with regard to beachgoer safety. Management implications: The role of Protected Areas (PAs) was studied as a potential management framework for the safety and comfort of beachgoers, where beach tourism practices could be efficiently integrated and managed. Two Brazilian beaches with similar environmental conditions but under different regulatory regimes were studied, focusing on aspects related to beachgoer satisfaction and safety. One of the beaches is not included in the PA and therefore not subject to the PA management plan regulations. Conversely, another beach is located within a PA and is therefore subject to the PA's management plan. This study has shown that PAs are a positive alternative for the management of recreational activities along the Amazonian coast. However, given the specific characteristics of the study area and the limited investment in necessary services, the solutions to the safety problems of the beaches studied include the adoption of specifics beach management plans. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,45,,J.

Hence, the interest on deeper reefs has happened at a time when shallow reefs are undergoing unprecedented changes. Here we investigated the hypothesis that fish community differed from shallow to deeper reefs due to factors apart from habitat structure and quality and therefore discuss for the first-time insights of a “deep refuge hypothesis” from Brazilian reefs. We collected data on fish community, benthic community and physiological conditions of two coral species on shallow (< 6 m) and deep reefs (> 25 m). No significant difference on substratum composition was observed comparing sites and depths. Additionally, physiological data on corals also showed similar oxidative status and growth conditions when comparing the two-coral species in shallow and deep reefs. Conversely, our study demonstrated strong differences on reef fish communities in terms of abundance, species richness, trophic groups, size classes and groups of interest when comparing shallow and deeper reefs. Fish abundance was 2-fold higher and species richness was up to 70% higher on deeper reefs. Also, a significant difference was observed comparing trophic groups of reef fish. Macrocarnivore, Mobile invertebrate feeders, Planktivores, Sessile Invertebrates Feeders and Roving Herbivores were more abundant on deeper reefs. On the other hand, Territorialist Herbivores almost exclusively dominated shallow reefs. Strong differences were also observed comparing the abundance of reef fish groups of interest and their respective size classes between shallow and deeper reefs. Ornamental, Great Herbivores and Groupers showed clear differences, with higher abundances being observed in deeper reefs. Considering size classes, larger individuals (> 15 cm) of Great Herbivores, Groupers and Snapper were uniquely recorded at deeper reefs. Additionally, individuals with > 30 cm were recorded almost exclusively on deeper reefs for all the analyzed groups of interest. Our findings suggest that fishing pressure on the target species may be attenuated on deeper reefs, and these regions may therefore be considered as areas of refuge from shallow water impacts. Therefore, the likely potential for deeper reefs protect species from natural or anthropogenic disturbances increases the attention of marine conservation planning and resource management on including deeper reefs in protected areas. © 2018 Pereira et al.

Yet, few studies have attempted to analyze the influence of depth on reef fish escape behavior across distinct size classes. By using behavioral response as a measure for prey wariness, the present study analyzed flight initiation distance (FID) for three fishery target and one non-target reef fish species on shallow and deeper reefs in South Atlantic Ocean (Multiple use MPA Costa dos Corais, Pernambuco State). We hypothesized that fish on shallow reefs would have higher FID and detect the human approach sooner and flee at a large distance than individuals in deeper reefs, which would have a late detection, allowing a closer approach. During our field experiment, flight initiation distances average was higher at shallow reefs for three analyzed species, yet each species had specific responses according to individual size classes. For two fishery target species E. adscensionis and C. fulva, two intermediate size classes presented higher flight distances at shallow than deeper reefs. However, S. axillare a target parrotfish, demonstrated an unexpected trend with higher FID on deeper reefs for smaller size classes. Interestingly, the non-target species, have also shown differences on wariness across the two analyzed size classes, with higher FID on shallow than deeper reefs. Our results suggest that fish on shallow reefs would detect the human approach sooner and flee at a large distance than individuals in deeper reefs; however, fish response to human presence according to depth is size classes and species dependent. We emphasis the important of no-take zones and the establishment of new marine protected areas on both shallow and deeper reefs in Brazilian waters and elsewhere in order to maintain the integrity of reef fish behavior and consequently ecosystems functioning. © 2020, Springer Nature B.V.",,1247-1256,,10,103,,Environ.

In this context, Marine Protected Areas (MPA) are efficient tools for habitat recovery and ideal environments for evaluating changes on the trophic structure resulting from human activities. The present work targeted fish assemblages from two no-take MPAs from the northern half of South Alentejo and Costa Vicentina Marine Park, established in 2011. Previous works reported positive effects on local fish assemblages after no-take MPA designation, and it is therefore important to further study its impact on local fish assemblages, especially concerning trophic interactions. Local fish assemblages were sampled (summer 2011, winter 2012, summer 2013 and winter 2013) using trammel nets. Diets were characterized and digestive tract contents of the 10 most abundant fish species were compared between the no take MPAs (treatment) and adjacent areas (controls), and changes evaluated as a function of time since protection. Results revealed significant differences between the diets of fish from protected and non protected areas, with crabs being the preferential prey in both protected and control areas but being more ingested outside the no-take areas. However, these differences were evident since the beginning of the study. Fish assemblages from the northern area presented significantly larger niche breadth and significantly increasing with time. This way, the main effects of no-take MPA implementation were directly visible on the niche breadth but did not directly impact the diet composition of the sampled fish assemblages, contributing however to reinforce the already naturally existent differences. This work provides important information regarding the effect of changes in the fish assemblage caused by MPA designation on the trophic ecology of fish. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,144-153,,,137,,Ocean Coast.

Long-term monitoring of the species composition and community structure of birds on Bioko allows for a better understanding of the effects of seasonality, anthropogenic development, and climate change. The objective of this study was to evaluate the species composition, richness, and relative abundance of birds in Moka, an agricultural town with patches of secondary forest located on the edge of a protected area on Bioko. Here we report on mist netting conducted as part of student-led projects from 2008 to 2015. In total, 674 birds, representing 46 species, were caught over 76 days of sampling, including one restricted-range species and one species designated Near Threatened by the IUCN, the White-tailed Warbler Poliolais lopezi. Moka is an important area for conservation, ecotourism, and educational opportunities on Bioko; however, it is relatively understudied, with little long-term data published on the ecology of native species. These data help to create a baseline with which to make comparisons over time as land-use changes affect the habitat surrounding Moka, especially as the adjacent protected area is considered for international recognition and protection as a proposed biosphere reserve and UNESCO World Heritage Site. © 2021 NISC (Pty) Ltd.",,184-193,,3,92,,Ostrich,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Taylor and Francis Ltd.,,,,biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; birds; CAMEROON; Central Africa; conservation; CONSERVATION; FOREST BIRDS; HABITAT; INDICATORS; mist net; MOUNTAINS; PATTERNS; protected area; RED LIST INDEXES; SPECIES RICHNESS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Although several MPAs exist in Sri Lanka, most are not managed, and resource extraction and habitat degradation continue unabated. At present, the declaration and management of MPAs is carried out without adequate consideration of the ecology, socioeconomic realities, or long-term management sustainability. Managers have focused more toward the creation of new legislation and protected areas rather than ensuring the implementation of existing regulations and management of existing protected areas. Poor coordination and a lack of serious political will have also hindered successful resource management. As in other developing countries, MPA managers have to contend with coastal communities that are directly dependant on marine resources for their subsistence. This often makes it unfeasible to exclude resource users, and MPAs have failed to attract necessary government support because many politicians are partial toward the immediate needs of local communities for both economic and political reasons. A more integrated approach, and decisions based on the analysis of all relevant criteria combined with a concerted and genuine effort toward implementing strategies and achieving predetermined targets, is needed for effective management of MPAs and the sustainable use of marine resources in Sri Lanka. © 2007 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,727-738,,5,40,,Environ.

The total coverage of existing and proposed areas was calculated by merging the dataset to remove duplicates and dissolving the boundaries between polygons to determine the total area. Spatial analysis was carried out in ArcGIS using geoprocessing tools. Currently, more than 25% of Mexico’s marine area is legally protected or conserved, with federal marine protected areas covering more than 22% of the Exclusive Economic Zone. The legally established areas that can be considered OECMs cover about 3% of the marine territory. We found that more than 9% of Mexico’s Economic Exclusive Zone contains areas of high conservation importance that are not covered by any area-based instrument.

We used the recreational flats fishery as a model to: (1) evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of a mixed-methods approach for fishery conservation and management and (2) propose a general strategic plan to guide conservation and management that also benefits biodiversity of aquatic resources. The approach consisted of gathering local knowledge, observing participants, reviewing literature, and interviewing key representatives of the flats fishing community, resource managers (governmental and co-managers), academia and non-governmental organizations, followed by online surveys, to rank overall findings and prioritize concerns identified by a Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) analysis. Our findings indicated that science, education, conservation, and management were important. The strategic framework included goals, objectives, strategies, and outcomes that will depend on validation and collaboration amongst sectors to generate information and application to fisheries and protected areas (PAs) management to benefit local communities, national economies, and preservation of biodiversity. Prioritized needs included: (1) science to address habitat loss and degradation, overharvest, habitat use conflict resolution, fishing pressure, and protection of key habitats for all life cycles of target species; (2) education and awareness to increase knowledge, address fish handling practices, and guide conservation and management decision-making; (3) inclusion of the flats fishery in conservation plans, PAs, development, and economic plans; and (4) improved enforcement of regulations to ensure sustainability. © 2024 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,,,,,,Fish.

Nature-based Solutions (NbS) have gained interest in addressing these global societal challenges. Although much effort has been directed to NbS in urban and terrestrial environments, the implementation of NbS in marine and coastal environments (blue NbS) lags. The lack of a framework to guide decision-makers and practitioners through the initial planning stages appears to be one of the main obstacles to the slow implementation of blue NbS. To address this, we propose an integrated conceptual framework, built from expert knowledge, to inform the selection of the most appropriate blue NbS based on desired intervention objectives and social-ecological context. Our conceptual framework follows a four incremental steps structure: Step 1 aims to identify the societal challenge(s) to address; Step 2 highlights ecosystem services and the underlying biodiversity and ecological functions that could contribute to confronting the societal challenge(s); Step 3 identify the specific environmental context the intervention needs to be set within (e.g. the spatial scale the intervention will operate within, the ecosystem's vulnerability to stressors, and its ecological condition); and Step 4 provides a selection of potential blue NbS interventions that would help address the targeted societal challenge(s) considering the context defined through Step 3. Designed to maintain, enhance, recover, rehabilitate, or create ecosystem services by supporting biodiversity, the blue NbS intervention portfolio includes marine protection (i.e., fully, highly, lightly, and minimally protected areas), restorative activities (i.e., active, passive, and partial restoration; rehabilitation of ecological function and ecosystem creation), and other management measures (i.e., implementation and enforcement of regulation). Ultimately, our conceptual framework guides decision-makers toward a versatile portfolio of interventions that cater to the specific needs of each ecosystem rather than imposing a rigid, one-size-fits-all model. In the future, this framework needs to integrate socio-economic considerations more comprehensively and be kept up-to-date by including the latest scientific information. © 2023",,,,,352,,J. Environ.

In this study, our goal was to enable scoring the BC of wild Baird’s tapir (Tapirus bairdii) without the need for direct observation, using camera trap and opportunistic photographic records. First, we modified a BCS assessment that was created for other tapir species, using captive Baird’s tapirs. Second, we applied it to a set of photographs of wild Baird’s tapir that were obtained over six consecutive years in a protected area in southern Mexico. We compared morphometric measurements and muscle and fat deposited in several anatomical regions. We also evaluated changes in BC between seasons for individuals photographed on several occasions. We show that neck and thorax circumferences are significantly correlated with all BCSs associated with these anatomical regions, whereas abdominal circumference is correlated only with half of the BCS. BCS of captive tapirs that we evaluated averaged 24.93±5.61, which was higher than that of wild tapirs (22.63±3.68). No significant difference in BC was apparent between rainy and dry seasons in our study site; wild tapirs were able to maintain good BC throughout the year.

In México, this species is listed as endangered. Manatee conservation strategies require density or occupancy estimates, especially in areas where species face survival risks. On turbid waters, like those found in rivers and lakes of the Southern Gulf of México coast, visual methods used to detect and count manatees underestimate actual numbers. Our goal was to estimate the density and abundance (N) of Antillean manatees in a small State Natural Protected Area, where a manatee population of unknown size inhabits. We performed line transects using a side scan sonar to detect animals and mark-recapture in the isolated population of manatees within Laguna de las Ilusiones, México, a landlocked lake that excludes transit. Using distance sampling from 14 boat trips, estimates of density and abundance were 15.5 manatees km-2 and 27 ± 5 manatees in the lake (CV ? 16.6 %). With MARK, from six capture events and 19 individual encounter records, the abundance estimated was 24 manatees (CV ? 16 to 24 %). Previous number of manatees were based only on visual surveys, which reported at least seven manatees. Density is lower than other similar studies along narrow waterways in important areas in México and other Central and South America countries. Studying this endangered subspecies is limited by cryptic habits, turbid waters, poor funding, and low densities, making density or abundance estimates difficult. However, within particular areas and established monitoring areas, these methods could be useful to generate baselines for conservation strategies. © 2023 Asociación Mexicana de Mastozoología, www.mastozoologiamexicana.org.",,,,1,14,,Therya,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Asociacion Mexicana de Mastozoologia,,,,distance sampling; freshwater environment; mark-recapture; side scan sonar; turbid waters,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Here, we evaluate this technique to monitor the patterns of illegal cattle occurrence in the Brazilian Pantanal over a complete annual cycle. We aim to provide one of the first assessments of the performance of automated signal recognition software to detect ungulates. Cattle occurrences reached their maximum during the end of the dry season when lowland areas provide excellent pastures for cattle. In contrast, cattle occurrences were very low during the rainy season when the study area was seasonally inundated. Automated software was an efficient tool that was able to detect approximately three-quarters of cow calls within the recordings. Passive acoustic monitoring can be used to direct patrols to areas where illegal activities, such as cattle and poaching or logging, have been confirmed, which could be a method that would be especially well suited for remote areas, such as tropical forests. Future studies should evaluate whether there is a relationship between cattle grazing intensity and its associated impacts on wildlife and flora.

However, MPAs are underrepresented in marine environments compared to terrestrial environments. Within this context, we studied the Atlantic non-breeding distribution of the southern population of Balearic shearwaters (Puffinus mauretanicus) breeding in Eivissa during the 2011-2012 period based on global location sensing (GLS) devices. Our objectives were (1) to identify overall Important Atlantic Areas (IAAs) from a southern population, (2) to describe spatio-temporal patterns of oceanographic habitat use, and (3) to assess whether existing conservation areas (Natura 2000 sites and marine Important Bird Areas (IBAs)) cover the main IAAs of Balearic shearwaters. Our results highlighted that the Atlantic staging (from June to October in 2011) dynamic of the southern population was driven by individual segregation at both spatial and temporal scales. Individuals ranged in the North-East Atlantic over four main IAAs (Bay of Biscay: BoB, Western Iberian shelf: WIS, Gulf of Cadiz: GoC, West of Morocco: WoM). While most individuals spent more time on the WIS or in the GoC, a small number of birds visited IAAs at the extremes of their Atlantic distribution range (i.e., BoB and WoM). The chronology of the arrivals to the IAAs showed a latitudinal gradient with northern areas reached earlier during the Atlantic staging. The IAAs coincided with the most productive areas (higher chlorophyll a values) in the NE Atlantic between July and October. The spatial overlap between IAAs and conservation areas was higher for Natura 2000 sites than marine IBAs (areas with and without legal protection, respectively). Concerning the use of these areas, a slightly higher proportion of estimated positions fell within marine IBAs compared to designated Natura 2000 sites, with Spanish and Portuguese conservation areas being the most visited. Our results support the current design of conservation areas in Spain and Portugal regarding the protection of adult breeders of this highly mobile species. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,285-293,,,141,,Deep-Sea Res.

While its consequences are being measured throughout the oceans and in all coastal areas, it is urgent to work with island territories in order to strengthen their capacities in terms of resilience and to develop strategies integrating ecological solidarity and preserving the quality of life for their populations. Due to its geographical position, Corsica is on the front-line facing the challenges raised by climate change in the Mediterranean Sea. It is, in fact, in one of the sectors where forecast changes regarding both, rising air temperatures and evapotranspiration, as well as a decline in precipitation and moisture in the soil, are the most pronounced. In the face of present and future challenges, the territory's resilience will depend on the introduction of appropriate governance, a collaborative and pooled system of management, and also shared knowledge of what is occurring now and what might be expected to happen over the medium term, to allow for better preparation and try to provide responses tailored to the risks being faced. The purpose of this work, corresponding to a Mediterranean offshoot of the annual Report Cards produced by the Marine Climate Change Impacts Partnership (MCCIP), is to offer Corsica's decision makers and public authorities a forward-looking tool designed to provide information on adaptation and resilience by establishing a link between the best scientific information available on climate change within its territory and priorities in adaptive management. This report is the result of a joint reflection undertaken by a group of experts concerned by climate change in Corsica, working with experts from the IUCN and its World Commission on Protected Areas. It presents a survey of the knowledge available on the impact of climate change in marine and coastal environments in Corsica, and is also intended to be extended to other Mediterranean coastal regions. On the basis of this knowledge, it identifies the most likely future patterns of change, which are given probability ratings. Finally, it suggests lines of approach aimed at supporting the development, improvement and implementation of adaptation and resilience strategies, together with a discussion of the strategic role played by MPAs within this context. © 2019 MEDCOAST.

The main sources of metals to CIEC are the former mining sites located upstream, on the Ribeira de Iguape River basin. Pb is reported as the element of primary concern, but Cu, Zn, Cr and As have been detected in sediments and biota. In general, higher levels of metals are associated with muddy sediments, in depositional portions of the estuary. Metals appear to be bioavailable, as sediment toxicity has been reported, together with bioaccumulation and sub-chronic effects in fish and invertebrates. Areas with higher concentrations of metals and more severe sediment toxicity are not necessarily the closest to the sources. The worse conditions occur in depositional sites, which depend on rainfall in catchment basin and hydrological processes in the estuary. In fact, during the flooding season the deposition of particles seems to move southward, carrying metals to the southern portion of the CIEC. The results suggest that the protection objectives are not being fully achieved, demanding actions to ensure control of both internal and external sources of contaminants for the CIEC. Additionally, new enforcements and actions are required to control the contamination sources of mining residues located upstream. The current review highlights that estuarine and marine protected areas may be impacted by contaminants released from distant sources, and this situation should be properly addressed in management plans. © 2020 The authors.

However, the agricultural practices in its surroundings might cause pesticide contamination of the park biota. This work aimed to assess temporal trends of a wide variety of pesticides, including organochlorine (OCPs), organophosphate (OPPs) and pyrethroid (PYRs) pesticides, in bird eggs collected for more than twenty years (1999–2021) in DNP. Twenty-six pesticides were detected, being 4,4?-DDE the most frequently detected and also the one with the highest concentrations (up to 2.55 ?g g?1 ww), exceeding in some cases the values usually reported to cause detrimental health and reproductive effects in avian species. An overall decreasing trend of OCPs was observed. In contrast, an apparent increase in PYRs was detected from 2013 onwards, especially for fenvalerate, whose median concentration was 3–5 orders of magnitude higher in the most recent samples. Moreover, other pesticides such as oxadiazon, oxyfluorfen and fenitrothion were first detected in 2021 samples. Finally, two variables estimating the cumulative impact of pesticides significantly decreased the breeding performance of a top predator such as the booted eagle. Therefore, it is essential to control the use of pesticides in the agricultural practices surrounding DNP and to study their potential negative impact on the bird populations breeding in this protected area. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,323,,Environ.

However, the creation of shark MPAs has been less common in the Greater Caribbean region despite a growing need and opportunity. In this study, we evaluated the occurrence of shark and reef fish biodiversity off Sint Maarten, Dutch Caribbean, with a particular emphasis on endangered shark presence within the Man of War Shoal Marine Protected Area (MPA). We utilized baited remote underwater video systems (BRUVs) to gather non-invasive data on the abundance and diversity of reef fish and shark species inside and outside the local MPA. Generalized linear models (GLMs) revealed no significant effect of protection status on the presence of the endangered Caribbean reef shark (Carcharhinus perezi). However, we found a significant influence of depth on shark occurrence, as well as an effect of habitat type on shark and reef fish biodiversity, with reef habitats showing the greatest significance. These results suggest that the effect of small coastal MPAs on bolstering local endangered species conservation in the Dutch Caribbean is likely to vary according to habitat features and how those species utilize those habitats across various life stages. These findings have implications for adaptive MPA management, which should be informed by the ecology and habitat preferences of target species to achieve maximum benefits for biodiversity conservation. © The Author(s) 2024.",,,,,,,Environ.

In the northeast Atlantic Ocean, recent changes amongst seabird communities are linked to human and climate change impacts on food webs. Many species have declined severely, with food shortages, and increased predation reducing productivity. Arctic skua Stercorarius parasiticus, a kleptoparasite of other seabirds, is one such species. The aim of the study was to determine relative effects of bottom-up and top-down pressures on Arctic skuas across multiple colonies in a rapidly declining national population. Long-term monitoring data were used to quantify changes in population size and productivity of Arctic skuas, their hosts (black-legged kittiwake Rissa tridactyla, common guillemot Uria aalge, Atlantic puffin Fratercula arctica, Arctic tern Sterna paradisaea) and an apex predator (great skua Stercorarius skua) over 24 years (1992–2015) in Scotland. We used digital mapping and statistical models to determine relative effects of bottom-up (host productivity) and top-down (great skua density) pressures on Arctic skuas across 33 colonies, and assess variation between three colony types classified by host abundance. Arctic skuas declined by 81% and their hosts by 42%–92%, whereas at most colonies great skuas increased. Annual productivity declined in Arctic skuas and their hosts, and reduced Arctic skua breeding success was a driver of the species’ population decline. Arctic skua productivity was positively associated with annual breeding success of hosts and negatively with great skua density. Intercolony variation suggested Arctic skua trends and productivity were most sensitive to top-down pressures at smaller colonies of host species where great skuas had increased most, whereas bottom-up pressures dominated at large colonies of host species. Scotland's Arctic skua population is declining rapidly, with bottom-up and top-down pressures simultaneously reducing breeding success to unsustainably low levels. Marine food web alterations, strongly influenced by fisheries management and climate change, are driving the decline, and this study demonstrates severe vulnerability of seabirds to rapid change in human-modified ecosystems. Potential but untested conservation solutions for Arctic skuas include marine protected areas, supplementary feeding within colonies and management of great skuas. © 2018 The Authors.

Assessing whether MPAs are having the desired effects on populations requires effective monitoring programs. A cornerstone of an effective monitoring program is an assessment of the statistical power of sampling designs to detect changes when they occur. We present a novel approach to power assessment that combines spatial point process models, integral projection models (IPMs) and sampling simulations to assess the power of different sample designs across a network of MPAs. We focus on the use of remotely operated vehicle (ROV) video cameras as the sampling method, though the results could be extended to other sampling methods. We use empirical data from baseline surveys of an example indicator fish species across three MPAs in California, USA as a case study. Spatial models simulated time series of spatial distributions across sites that accounted for the effects of environmental covariates, while IPMs simulated expected trends over time in abundances and sizes of fish. We tested the power of different levels of sampling effort (i.e., the number of 500-m ROV transects) and temporal replication (every 1–3 yr) to detect expected post-MPA changes in fish abundance and biomass. We found that changes in biomass are detectable earlier than changes in abundance. We also found that detectability of MPA effects was higher in sites with higher initial densities. Increasing the sampling effort had a greater effect than increasing sampling frequency on the time taken to achieve high power. High power was best achieved by combining data from multiple sites. Our approach provides a powerful tool to explore the interaction between sampling effort, spatial distributions, population dynamics, and metrics for detecting change in previously fished populations. © 2020 by the Ecological Society of America",,,,1,31,,Ecol.

We tested the hypothesis that French coastal MPAs primarily designed for coastal and benthic biota are also beneficial for the conservation of a pelagic seabird, the Vulnerable yelkouan shearwater (Puffinus yelkouan), an endemic species to the Mediterranean Sea. We used a vast spectrum of electronic devices (GPS, temperature-depth-recorders, satellite transmitters and geolocators) and stable isotopic analyses to study the year-round movements and the trophic status of yelkouan shearwaters from the Hyčres archipelago (France). In addition we conducted large-scale ship and aircrafts observation surveys to investigate spatio-temporal density patterns of shearwaters (genus Puffinus) in the western Mediterranean Sea. This extensive investigation permitted the first comprehensive study of the at-sea ecology of yelkouan shearwaters showing strikingly coastal habits, partial migration, unsuspected diving capabilities (max dive depth of 30. m), and a broad diet ranging from zooplankton to small pelagic fish. Importantly, 31% of yelkouan shearwaters GPS positions associated with foraging, 38% of diving positions, and 27% of resting positions were within the three French MPAs during the breeding season. These high scores confirmed by year-round distribution derived from GLS, PTTs, at-sea and aerial observations, validated our hypothesis of the major importance of coastal MPAs for the conservation of yelkouan shearwater. Our case-study is therefore a major contribution to research efforts aiming at linking the spatial ecology of highly mobile marine vertebrates with effective conservation of marine biodiversity. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,210-221,,,168,,Biol.

Floristic analysis was carried out by Raunkiaer and Braun-Blanquet. Biological forms and chorological types were named according to Raunkiear. Overall, 408 taxa were identified, of which 332 species, 73 subspecies and 3 varieties, belonging to 275 genera and 74 families. A small segment of 18 taxa, out of 408, was considered of conservation interest. For these taxa the topography of the collecting site, plant community, population density, degree of vulnerability and habitats were recorded, according to the Directive 92/43/EEC. Another segment of 111 taxa, out of a total of 408, was considered important for usage, which for the sake of presentation has been divided in five arbitrary categories: food crops, fodder crops, medicinal, aromatic and officinalis, crop wild relatives and edible wild species. For each of these taxa, an attempt to provide relevant information was made. Only two taxa, i.e., Muscari parviflorum and Aegilops uniaristata are common to both segments.

Deception Island has the largest concentration of rare bryophyte species and communities in Antarctica, while also offering substantial opportunities for research in a range of scientific disciplines due to its volcanic nature. As a result, conflicts between research interests and conservation goals may arise. On the summit ridge of Caliente Hill severe trampling damage to the moss assemblages growing in association with localized geothermal activity was observed. The range of species affected included the entire known population of Schistidium deceptionense, an endemic moss known only from this site, as well as other very rare Antarctic mosses (Ditrichum ditrichoideum, Bryum orbiculatifolium, Bucklandiella subcrispipila, Pohlia wahlenbergii and Dicranella hookeri). A photomapping study was undertaken to characterize further the status of the site and monitor changes within it. Increased awareness, co-ordination of activities and a spatial zoning within the site could help mitigate damage from permitted activities.

In the Mediterranean area, which is characterized by high vegetational and environmental diversity, the mapping and monitoring of habitats are particularly difficult and often exclusively based on in situ observations. In this scenario, it is necessary to automate the generation of updated maps to support the decisions of policy makers. At present, the availability of high spatiotemporal resolution data provides new possibilities for improving the mapping and monitoring of habitats. In this work, we present a methodology that, starting from remotely sensed time-series data, generates habitat maps using supervised classification supported by Functional Data Analysis. We constructed the methodology using Sentinel-2 data in the Mediterranean Special Area of Conservation “Gola di Frasassi” (Code: IT5320003). In particular, the training set uses 308 field plots with 11 target classes (five forests, two shrubs, one grassland, one mosaic, one extensive crop, and one urban land). Starting from vegetation index time-series data, Functional Principal Component Analysis was applied to derive FPCA scores and components. In particular, in the classification stage, the FPCA scores are considered as features. The obtained results out-performed a previous map derived from photo-interpretation by domain experts. We obtained an overall accuracy of 85.58% using vegetation index time-series, topography, and lithology data. The main advantages of the proposed approach are the capability to efficiently compress high dimensional data (dense remote-sensing time series) providing results in a compact way (e.g., FPCA scores and mean seasonal time profiles) that: (i) facilitate the link between remote sensing with habitat mapping and monitoring and their ecological interpretation and (ii) could be complementary to species-based approaches in plant community ecology and phytosociology. © 2022 by the authors.

We also examined the impact of drought on the results of the Polish Diatom Index (IO) and the Indice de Polluo-Sensibilité Spécifique (IPS), which is the most commonly used diatom index in European countries, as a preliminary assessment of how changes in watercourses during climate-change related drought affect environmental quality assessments. The studies were conducted on watercourses in an area devoid of significant anthropogenic pressures, i.e., the protected area of Magura National Park in the Carpathian Mountains, Poland. The chemical parameters and ecological condition based on diatom analysis permitted classifying the watercourses as having good and very good status. Drought periods had a significant impact on some water parameters such as electrolytic conductivity, pH, nitrogen compounds, chlorides, and sulfates. Changes in the composition and structure of diatom communities were observed; however, in larger watercourses they were much smaller than those in smaller watercourses of a higher order. During drought periods, the share of diatoms from the motile guild and terrestrial species increased significantly in the streams. Drought had positive effects on the increased biodiversity of benthic diatom communities. Diatom index values showed statistically significant differences between drought-free and drought periods. In the present study, the differences observed were small enough to not affect the final ecological status classification. However, given the significant increase in the abundance of motile species, which are often classified as indicators of pollution, we believe that in watercourses with lower ecological statuses the occurrence of motile taxa related to drought symptoms (e.g., low water current, formation of depository habitats) could have had an impact on lowering statuses during ecological water assessments. © 2021 The Author(s)",,,,,125,,Ecol.

Management objectives of KNP are not only to protect biodiversity, but also to conserve spawning stocks of high-valued commercial species for the replenishment of surrounding fishing grounds. We monitored two sites twice monthly over five years for two species of grouper, Epinephelus fuscoguttatus and Plectropomus areolatus. One site had an aggregation of both E. fuscoguttatus and P. areolatus, whereas the other site contained an aggregation of P. areolatus only. Over the five years monitoring period, aggregations typically formed during each full moon between September and February. Additionally, P. areolatus occasionally aggregated during new moons between April and July. We observed spawning only once, but because formation of aggregations were correlated to a higher incidence of behavior and signs indicative of reproduction and because most fish present were adults, it is likely that the formation of aggregations was associated with spawning. Over the five years monitoring period there was a reduction in mean fish size of up to 8 cm for P. areolatus, and a reduction in numbers of aggregating E. fuscoguttatus. Despite limited protection initiated in 2001, both sites are still heavily fished by local artisanal fishers. Because the observed reductions in size and in numbers could be caused by fishing pressure, managers should follow the precautionary principle by putting additional protective management in place. Since both species are relatively long-lived, at least five years of continued monitoring may be necessary to determine the outcome of management intervention. The variability in timing of aggregation in respect to season and moon phase in P. areolatus indicates that long-term monitoring must cover the entire year and both moon phases. © Springer 2005.",,209-218,,2,74,,Environ.

Declines in fish stocks have resulted in greater concerns for food security, especially in developing and coastal areas, and calls for environmental conservation are growing. Planning of marine protected areas has traditionally been based on biological and ecological data, only recently focusing on the human communities that are significantly dependent on coastal resources. The hypothesis that marine resource use is determined by socioeconomic factors (such as food security and income) and livelihood options was tested in two communities on the island of Rodrigues (Western Indian Ocean). As livelihood development can be a response to fisher displacement by protected areas, willingness towards alternative livelihood options and the differences in this between fisher demographic groups were also examined. Using semi-structured interviews, 72 fishers were surveyed on topics such as fishery and marine protected area (MPA) regulation noncompliance, current livelihoods and willingness to consider alternative livelihoods. Fishers believed Rodrigues fisheries suffer from high levels of noncompliance, owing mainly to a lack of livelihood alternatives and depleted stocks. Rodriguan fishers had low mobility, both within the fishery (for example gear types used and target species) and in movement to occupations outside the fishery. The fishers were generally willing to consider alternate livelihoods. Age was significantly correlated with overall willingness to consider alternative work, while gender and village were found to have a significant relationship with types of work that an individual was willing to consider. Policy makers and marine resource managers need to identify drivers of noncompliant behaviour and examine livelihood preferences at different scales (individual, within and between communities) prior to users being affected by MPA created displacement to more effectively address marine conservation and food security goals. The findings offer new empirical evidence to strengthen support for arguments that could be made by policy makers to demand more balanced consideration of the effects of MPAs on socioeconomic factors along with environmental considerations in communities highly dependent on access to the marine areas that will be affected by MPAs. © 2011 Foundation for Environmental Conservation.",,342-352,,3,38,,Environ.

In the Habitats Directive, it is explicitly stated that the competent authority should ascertain that no harm will be done to EU sites belonging to the Natura 2000 network before authorisation for further action is granted. A review of some of the national guidance documents concerning the Natura Assessment developed by EU Member States showed diversity in the scope and depth prescribed for the assessment. A five-year review of screening decisions in Estonia demonstrated that the Habitats Directive and the respective EU guidelines are poorly applied. The majority of the EIA and SEA screening decisions in 20042009 did not consider the impacts on Natura 2000 sites. Those decisions that did consider them addressed primarily the location-induced aspects of the proposed plan or project, with respect to the location of the relevant Natura 2000 site. Less than one third of decisions considered location, likely effects and their significance together. In the rest of the cases, the reasoning was missing or unclear.

This study reviews the Chilean protected areas that have been created to date, with an emphasis on the existence and effectiveness of management plans for all terrestrial and marine protected areas. Effectiveness was individually evaluated using two filters: 1) the age of the management plan and 2) the first four steps of the Protected Areas Management Effectiveness (PAME) methodology recommended by the IUCN. Results: We show that 84 out of a total of 145 protected areas (PAs), and only five out of a total of 20 marine protected areas (MPAs), have management plans. Only 12% (N = 16) of PAs are effectively managed; while in the marine realm, no MPA has an effective plan. Conclusions: Our results show the lack of both the effectiveness of and updates to the management plans for the vast majority of the national territory and raise the following question: is it sustainable to continue adding protected areas to the national system even though it is clear that the existing support is insufficient to meet the minimum requirements for full implementation?. © The Author(s).",,,,1,91,,Rev.

This paper focusses upon the results of the monitoring activities conducted by ISCR to evaluate the applicability of artificial seagrass to protect a sector of the wall of the viridarium of the Villa dei Pisoni from erosion. The monitoring was made by high variable frequency side scan sonar, HD Dynamic (dynamic positioning system), current direction and intensity, light and temperature sensors and Naumacos L3 3D laser scan. The good practice of monitoring activities for conservation and management of Underwater Cultural heritage will be discussed, underlined and highlighted in the conclusions of the paper. © 2015 Metrology for Archaeology, MetroArchaeo",,328-332,,,,,,,,,,,International Measurement Confederation (IMEKO),,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Int.

This means that biodiversity protection, though a critically important function is far from being the only purpose and is often not the primary purpose of many protected areas. As an ever-growing activity, tourism in protected areas produces benefits and cost that often interact in complex ways. Therefore, it is obvious that special attention has to be paid to the protected areas governance model and its effectiveness, especially in terms of the planning and control process enhancement for the purpose of avoiding possible conflicts over nature protection and tourism development. This paper focuses on the analysis of problems that protected areas are facing in relation to tourism development, in particular from the Croatian protected areas' point of view (specifically, national parks and nature parks). Additionally it offers some recommendations concerning possible environmental management strategies, specifically those related to visitor management, whose tools ought to be implemented in order to keep both the protected areas' system and tourism development sustainable.

There has been a gradual impoverishment of forest resources inside selectively logged forests in which the volume of timber extracted over the first cutting cycle was mostly from large, old trees that matured over a century or more and grew in the absence of strong anthropological pressures. In forests now being logged for a second and third time, that volume has not been reconstituted due in part to the lack of implementation of post-logging silvicultural treatments. This depletion of timber stocks renders the degraded forests prone to conversion to other land uses. Although it is essential to preserve undisturbed primary forests through the creation of protected areas, these areas alone will not be able to ensure the conservation of all species on a pan-tropical scale, for social, economic and political reasons. The conservation of tropical forests of tomorrow will mostly take place within human-modified (logged, domesticated) forests. In this context, silvicultural interventions are considered by many tropical foresters and forest ecologists as tools capable of effectively conserving tropical forest biodiversity and ecosystem services while stimulating forest production. This systematic review aims to assess past and current evidence of the impact of silviculture on tropical forests and to identify silvicultural practices appropriate for the current conditions in the forests and forestry sectors of the Congo Basin, Amazonia and Southeast Asia. Methods: This systematic review will undertake an extensive search of literature to assess the relative effectiveness of different silvicultural interventions on timber production and the conservation value of forests, and to determine whether there is a relationship between sustainability of timber harvesting and the maintenance/conservation of other ecosystem services and biodiversity in production forests. Data will be extracted for meta-analysis of at least sub-sets of the review questions. Findings are expected to help inform policy and develop evidence-based practice guidelines on silvicultural practices in tropical forests. © 2015 Petrokofsky et al.; licensee BioMed Central.",,,,1,4,,Environ.

Although the experience in developing the Arctic region dates back to the early 20th century, there has been recently an increased and renewed global interest in the Arctic. In particular regions like the Norwegian-Russian Barents Sea, Alaska and Greenland have become the preferred areas of exploration and production activities despite of all the threats posed by the extreme operating conditions, the site remoteness, the ice presence, the prolonged darkness and the political regulation. In this sensitive and hostile environment Oil spill Preparedness and Emergency Response become particularly challenging. This paper shows the efforts made within the company to combine consolidated methodology and new initiatives with the aim of delivering a proactive instead of reactive approach to manage the consequences of catastrophic oil spill with a special focus on the issues posed by Arctic operations. In the perspective to enhance the oil spill preparedness and the emergency response, the paper describes the synergy between an expeditive semi-quantitative approach to assess the risk of blow out and releases from pipelines with an environmental analysis tool included in the company 3Ter Advanced Emergency System. Blow out risks and pipeline releases are studied through predictive company in house modeling tools. The results of such simulations feed the environmental analysis tool that is characterized by different layers i.e. habitats, marine regions and protected areas and additional information such as meteo marine data, bathymetry and thickness and concentration of oil. Through the combination of all the above mentioned techniques, it is possible to identify the most appropriate preventive and recovery barriers and select the most suitable response tactics taking into account the specific challenges posed by Arctic environment. © 2015, Offshore Technology Conference.",,119-131,,,,,,,,,,,Offshore Technology Conference,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: OTC Arct.

The Saffron-Cowled Blackbird Xanthopsar flavus is endemic to grasslands in Central and southern South America and its status is vulnerable. Natural history studies stress a number of factors responsible for the decline in its populations. In this paper, we present results from a grassland fire experiment aimed at evaluating the effect of grassland fires on foraging (grasses) and breeding (marshes) habitat use by the Saffron-Cowled Blackbird in a region where fire has been used for centuries as a tool for cattle management. We compare burned grasslands with a control treatment and grasslands within a conservation unit, evaluating uses before and after burning as well as relating bird abundance with environmental characteristics. We found that the Saffron-Cowled Blackbird used the burned treatments more frequently and avoided habitats with tall grasses and developed vegetation. Thus, this species is absent from the conservation unit, which has not experienced fires in nearly three decades. The Saffron-Cowled Blackbird depends on the existence of marshes (breeding habitat) surrounded by short grasses (foraging habitat). In the study region, short grasses are a result of burning practices. As the burning period coincides with the breeding season, the lack of criteria on the part of landowners regarding how to apply and control fire poses a permanent threat to these populations. © Dt.

A key goal of marine protected areas (MPAs) is to maintain stability in species composition, via reduced turnover, to support ecosystem function. Yet, this stability is rarely measured directly under different levels of protection. Rather, evaluations of MPA efficacy generally consist of static measures of abundance, species richness, and biomass, and rare measures of turnover are limited to short-term studies involving pairwise (beta diversity) comparisons. Zeta diversity is a recently developed metric of turnover that allows for measurement of compositional similarity across multiple assemblages and thus provides more comprehensive estimates of turnover. We evaluated the effectiveness of MPAs at preserving fish zeta diversity across a network of marine reserves over 10 years in Batemans Marine Park, Australia. Snorkel transect surveys were conducted across multiple replicated and spatially interspersed sites to record fish species occurrence through time. Protection provided by MPAs conferred greater stability in fish species turnover. Marine protected areas had significantly shallower decline in zeta diversity compared with partially protected and unprotected areas. The retention of harvested species was four to six times greater in MPAs compared with partially protected and unprotected areas, and the stabilizing effects of protection were observable within 4 years of park implementation. Conversely, partial protection offered little to no improvement in stability, compared with unprotected areas. These findings support the efficacy of MPAs for preserving temporal fish diversity stability. The implementation of MPAs helps stabilize fish diversity and may, therefore, support biodiversity resilience under ongoing environmental change. © 2021 Society for Conservation Biology.",,,,2,36,,Conserv.

Emphasis will be placed on examining the research conducted, including the methodologies applied, and analyzing both good practices and acknowledged failures. OECMs, introduced by the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) in 2010, refer to areas outside of protected areas, such as fisheries restricted areas, archaeological sites, and military areas, that effectively conserve biodiversity in-situ over the long term. OECMs are recognized rather than designated. Many countries currently endeavor to identify, recognize and report OECMs to the CBD for formal acceptance to support the implementation of spatial conservation targets. Studies that assess the contribution of OECMs to spatial conservation targets will be considered. Potential OECMs with primary, secondary or ancillary conservation objectives established by all sectors in the terrestrial, freshwater and marine realm worldwide will be considered. Peer-reviewed and grey literature will be considered without imposing limitations based on publication year, stage, subject area and source type. Both experimental and observational studies in English, French, Greek, Italian, and Spanish will be reviewed. The ScR will follow the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology.

This Scoping Review (ScR) identified and mapped the evidence base regarding the contribution of ABFMs to fisheries sustainability and marine conservation. The ScR was conducted following the JBI methodology and the PRISMA statement. A total of 2,391 documents were identified, and following a two-stage screening process, 151 documents were eventually included in the ScR for full review and data extraction. Most of the documents were published during the last 12 years. Studies had a wide geographical distribution (mainly located in Europe and North America), were primarily conducted at the subnational level, concerned fishing restrictions of towed gears, and assessed ABFMs from a single stock’s perspective. ABFMs identified were of various types, and the use of terminology was not consistent in the literature. Multiple combinations of data collection (primarily experimental surveys/sampling and open data sources) and analysis methods (most commonly, fisheries and ecological analyses and modelling) were applied (often in combination), using a variety of different metrics. Various knowledge gaps emerged, mainly related to the study of ABFMs networks and the application of an interdisciplinary and ecosystem-based approach for assessing ABFMs. The social, economic, and environmental impact of ABFMs was positive in most cases (56%) and in less cases negative (22%) or mixed (14%). This ScR is a valuable source of information for the contribution of ABFMs to rebuilding marine ecosystems and attaining CBD conservation targets through the lens of the OECM concept.

Such a framework contributes to the wider concept of considering other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs), as complementing conservation efforts and substantially contributing to effectively and equitably achieving Aichi biodiversity Target 11. A tailor-made multi-criteria decision analysis was designed and applied, for potential OECMs to be carefully assessed on a case-by-case basis and categorized according to their effectiveness in terms of contributing to marine biodiversity conservation. The official documentation and guidance provided by the IUCN were fully respected and made operational, providing a paradigm to managers and decision makers for assessing the contribution of FRAs to marine conservation under the OECM concept. The study also constitutes a review of the conservation status of the Aegean Sea and provides scientific documentation to the managers and decision makers in the area to address spatial conservation targets. By considering Natura 2000 sites as effective marine protected areas (MPAs), the Aichi Target 11 is attained (14.94%) at national level (i.e. within the Greek territorial waters). At ecoregional level (i.e. including international waters of the Aegean Sea) the target is not achieved (6.66%). It is proposed that, by adding all effective FRAs and a number of less effective FRAs, under the condition of increasing their effectiveness for conservation, to the network of MPAs in the area and designating them as OECMs, the conservation target can be attained also at ecoregional level. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,28-39,,,102,,Mar.

Most recommendations focused on enhancing informed and more effective area-based management (n = 115) and optimizing ABFMs planning (n = 70). Fewer were related to transparent and inclusive area-based management (n = 25) and adaptability to change (n = 22). For effective area-based fisheries management, the following actions are recommended: (1) advancing informed and effective management through enhanced data collection, responsive measures, regular monitoring, interdisciplinary research and efficient control and surveillance; (2) refining ABFMs planning to account for the complexity of marine ecosystems integrating ABFMs with other measures, considering socio-economic aspects, designing connective, representative and comprehensive ABFMs and considering ABFMs applicability and transferability; (3) nurturing transparent and inclusive management through intergovernmental cooperation, transparent and equitable governance and increased stakeholder engagement; and (4) embracing adaptability through responsiveness to change, dynamic ABFMs, and addressing climate-related shifts.

Estuaries and keystone species such as the seagrass, Zostera capensis, are under severe anthropogenic pressure and are often poorly protected. In this study we integrated Single Nucleotide Polymorphism data generated from populations of Z. capensis across the South African coastline into the spatial prioritisation tool Marxan. We included different measures of genomic variation to account for genomic diversity, distinctness and evolutionary potential to explore spatial planning scenarios. We investigated how conservation priority areas identified by targeting only habitat type differed from those identified by also including genomic measures; further we assessed how different genetic diversity metrics change prioritisation outcomes. All scenarios targeting genomic variation identified unique conservation prioritisation areas compared to scenarios only targeting habitat type. As such, omitting these estuaries from regional Marine Protected Areas networks risks the loss of evolutionarily important populations, threatening resilience and persistence of associated estuarine communities and their ecosystem services. We also observed a high degree of overlap between prioritisation outcomes across targeted measures of genomic variation. As such, by including even single measures of genomic variation, it may be possible to sufficiently represent the evolutionary processes behind the patterns of variation, while simplifying the conservation prioritisation procedure. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,2079-2096,,7,30,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,anthropogenic effect; biodiversity; conservation planning; conservation status; data set; ecosystem service; Estuarine management; evolutionary biology; genetic variation; Genomic diversity; habitat type; keystone species; marine park; Marine protected areas; Marxan; seagrass; Seagrass; spatial planning; Spatial prioritisation; Zostera capensis,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The main aim of this research is to investigate the changes of mangrove forest associations in tropical regions and possible reasons of changes via the case study of the Can Gio biosphere reserve in Viet Nam by using remote sensing datasets (SPOT 4 and 5 imagery), object-based image analysis and Support Vector Machine classifier. The classification results showed that the highest overall accuracy of this combination was 81.6%, given 420 reference objects, confirming the applicability of using remote sensing on assessing the development of mangrove forests. For the case study, we found that there was a decrease of the Avicennia alba – Sonneratia alba (Association I) area by 20.1% caused by the development of aquaculture and other human activities, but there was an increase of the Rhizophora apiculata (Association II) area by 34.8%. These trends may result in the exacerbated risk of soil erosion and make the region become more vulnerable to climate change and tropical storm events.

Fully protected marine protected areas (MPAs) provide the highest level of protection for biodiversity from destructive or extractive practices and may limit access to the area itself. Fully protected MPAs (also commonly referred to as ‘no-take MPAs’) ban all fishing activities, thereby removing the realisation of direct economic and social benefits from resource extraction within these areas. However, fully protected MPAs can still act as source of productivity to surrounding areas, while also providing an important scientific reference role for off-reserve management thereby providing indirect economic and social outcomes, as well as biodiversity benefits. Sustainable marine resource management strives to achieve ‘triple-bottom line’ benefits, where economic, social, and biodiversity benefits are maximised in managed areas of the ocean. Implementing ‘partially protected’ areas (PPAs) in areas of high biodiversity value (i.e., inshore, productive areas of the ocean) that allow for some extractive activities, may allow us to supplement fully MPAs to meet IUCN conservation goals, while maximising social and economic benefits. However, our current understanding lacks explicit quantitative assessments of whether and how PPAs can benefit (or otherwise) biodiversity, while also providing economic and social benefits. This study provides a method to systematically review the scientific and legislative literature to understand how PPAs may contribute to conserving biodiversity while also providing social and economic benefits to Australia. Methods and expected outputs The implementation of partially protected areas (PPAs) requires careful consideration of many potentially competing factors, and an understanding of the types of partial protection already in place in a region. We have developed a systematic literature review protocol focussing on the primary research question: “What is the current state of partially protected area (PPA) implementation across Australian marine areas?”. The aim of the review is to provide marine resource managers with a comprehensive overview of PPAs in Australia, including associated goals and stated management strategies to achieve these goals, and a methodological approach that may be utilised globally. The review protocol was designed by the research team for a Fisheries Resource and Development Corporation (FRDC) strategic research grant and will seek input from a project steering committee for the project on aggregation of the initial results. The steering committee is made up of stakeholders from a wide range of backgrounds and interests, covering marine conservation, fisheries management, Indigenous values, and academic research in Australia. Multiple academic databases, alongside Australian Federal, State, and Territory legislation and related policies will be reviewed using Boolean keyword search strings for both academic databases and relevant grey literature. Results from eligible documents will be compiled and insights from the review collated to provide information on the status of PPA implementation in Australia. Copyright: © 2023 Phillips et al.

Recent ratification of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) has ensured that globally we are committed to effectively protecting 30% of the world’s oceans by 2030, in MPAs. In Australia there is considerable interest in the potential benefits that partially protected areas (PPAs) may provide. However, a consistent definition of a PPA is currently lacking, and urgently needed to conduct quantitative analyses of PPAs. We conducted a systematic literature review to understand the current knowledge surrounding PPAs and their potential benefits. We define a PPA, characterise PPA implementation in Australia, and present results for the outcomes of PPAs in terms of ecological, economic, and social indicators. Our review suggests that although 45% of Australia’s marine environment is within MPAs, 61% of MPAs provide only partial protection. The Northern Territory (100%), New South Wales (81%), and Queensland (79.8%) have the highest percentage of MPAs that are partially protected, compared to Tasmania which has the smallest percentage of partially protected MPAs (13.12%). Tasmania also has the smallest percentage cover of MPAs (6.49% state waters). Most PPA management plans did not contain quantifiable Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to be able to effectively monitor the progress of these PPAs against the stated outcomes. We find the benefits of PPAs to be ambiguous: PPAs generally provide benefits when compared to ‘open’ ocean, however this is not a consistent result. There are no PPAs that provide greater overall benefits when compared to fully protected MPAs. Only one state (South Australia) and the Commonwealth (Australian Marine Parks) are collecting publicly available baseline data to facilitate quantitative monitoring of PPAs. Contrary to fisheries management, there were no plans of action if the declared MPAs and PPAs failed to meet their declared objectives and goals. Some PPAs within Australia appear to be incompatible with conservation priorities according to the recent “MPA Guide” classification framework. This study highlights the need for clearer management rationale and plans for PPAs in Australia, as these comprise the majority of MPAs in Australia’s Exclusive Economic Zone. © 2025 Phillips et al.

Moreover, there are still large gaps in data on population and density estimates, and threat evaluation, which are vital for conservation assessments. This research aimed to help fill these critical knowledge gaps. Our study is the first density estimate for fishing cat from mainland Southeast Asia. We conducted a camera-trap survey and used a spatially-explicit capture-recapture analytical framework to estimate the abundance of fishing cats in and around Khao Sam Roi Yot area (KSRY), which hosts an isolated, threatened population of the felid in Thailand. We also conducted interviews among adjacent communities to better understand local perspectives toward fishing cats, conflict with local people, and as a consequence of both, anthropogenic threats to the population. Over 6966 trap-days, we identified at least 33 individual adult cats and based on our top model (g0 ~ bk, ? ~ h2), we estimated fishing cat density to be 18 ± SE 6 individuals/100 km2 (95% CI 10 – 33). Among 80 interviewees, we recorded 25 incidents of conflict, most relating to raids on poultry (n = 18) and damage to fishing gear in pursuit of fish (n = 5). Land use type, land use change, and human activity, did not significantly affect fishing cat density and movements. Our findings further suggest that a proposed tax policy governing land use may force landowners to convert suitable fishing cat habitat to unsuitable areas, resulting in the loss of up to 30% of existing suitable habitat from our study area. We also found that local communities would support either an exemption for landowners not wishing to develop suitable fishing cat habitat, and/or an additional policies that incentivize the maintenance and/or preservation of areas suitable for fishing cats. Finally, we conclude that the official presence of park officers in communities beyond the protected area would be beneficial, as would the implementation of public outreach programming to mitigate negative attitudes toward fishing cats, and provide recommendations on strategies for coexisting with them. © 2021 The Author(s)",,,,,27,,Glob.

We briefly review their status pre-pandemic and provide an overview of the impacts of COVID-19 informed primarily by 15 case studies.

The objective of this study is to monitor the spatio-temporal changes of mangrove forest in the Can Gio biosphere reserve in Vietnam using Landsat data and Google Earth Engine cloud computing platform based on random forest algorithm. The classified mangrove forest map of Can Gio had an overall accuracy greater than 81% when validated with ground reference data. The results indicated mangrove forests has increased approximately 89.5% in the period of 1988 to 2018. The increase in forested land proved the success in forest planting and protection of local authorities.

We monitored population trends and habitat use of five heavily poached ungulate species (gaur, sambar, wild pig, red muntjac, and Fea's muntjac) over five years in two protected areas in western Thailand using camera trap surveys. We used single-season occupancy models to investigate effects of ecological and anthropological variables on ungulate distribution, and multi-season models to assess occupancy dynamics over time. Occupancy of gaur and sambar was low (<0.25), but concentrated near saltlicks and at low elevations. Wild pig and muntjac occupancies were 3–4 times higher (0.60–0.80). Wild pig occupancy was lower near villages, but this effect dissipated in the final year of the study, coinciding with a purported decrease in poaching. Wild pig occupancy increased significantly, with the probability of colonizing new sites doubling from 0.40 to 0.81 over time. In contrast, occupancy rates of gaur, sambar, and muntjac did not grow, though they were stable. Poaching pressure during the study was low, perhaps allowing populations to stabilize. But only wild pig (the most resilient of the five species) increased. The failure of gaur and sambar to recover might stem from historical overhunting combined with ecological constraints, particularly low saltlick density. Recovery of ungulates (and the carnivores that depend on them) in overhunted South-East Asian reserves might require intensive interventions, particularly habitat improvement and population augmentation, to achieve conservation objectives. © 2020 The Authors.",,,,9,11,,Ecosphere,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell,,,,habitat management; multi-season occupancy; population trend; prey augmentation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, it remains unclear how the spreading of man-made environments influences the occurrence and distribution of local populations. This study aimed to investigate the macrohabitat and microhabitat selection of the Great Spotted Woodpecker during the breeding season in a protected area in northern Italy, focusing on plantations and woodland habitats. We additionally provided some data on breeding biology and estimated the density in this area. As macrohabitat characteristics, we compared the cover of woodlands (three types: oak, black locust, and willow woodlands) and tree plantations (two types: poplar plantations and reforestations). To define the microhabitat selection, we compared environmental variables around nesting sites and around an equal number of random locations in their proximity. The Great Spotted Woodpecker selected oak and black locust woodlands, but also reforestation and poplar plantations. The results of the microhabitat analysis showed that for breeding, Great Spotted Woodpeckers require food resources, but also a rather dense arboreal vegetation and large trees. We estimated a density of 7.61 ind./km2 ± 1,13 (ES), indicating a good state of conservation. In conclusion, the Great Spotted Woodpecker occurs in both natural woodlands, where it also selects the non-native black locust, and tree plantations, despite the latter possibly being used only for foraging. Even though it is a generalist species, the woodpecker may play an important role as ecosystem engineer in both tree plantations and black locust woodlands, due to the scarcity of natural cavity in these habitats. To favour the presence of the species it is advisable to (1) increase the surface of tree vegetation of any type, (2) favour the maintenance of mature trees, (3) avoid silvicultural interventions during the breeding season (late January-late July). © 2021 CISO - Centro Italiano Studi Ornitologici.",,97-114,,2,46,,Avocetta,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Centro Italiano Studi Ornitologici,,,,black locust; cavity nester; poplar plantations; silviculture; Woodpecker,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The study aimed to evaluate the role of depth and habitat in the spread of macroalgal non-indigenous species (NIS). A multifactorial sampling design was employed to compare the abundance of NIS macroalgae over a one-year period across different substrates and depths within a Mediterranean MPArea. Moreover, the ecological quality of macroalgal assemblages in relation to invasion was assessed through the ALien Biotic IndEX (ALEX). The NIS macroalgae found in the MPA, Caulerpa cylindracea, Acrothamnion preissii, Womersleyella setacea and Falkenbergia sp., were overall quite low in abundance and, accordingly, the ALEX index had generally high values. The substrate, depth and time significantly affected NIS abundance; however, the lack of significant interannual variability (December 2018–December 2019), both in pooled and separated NIS abundance, suggested that the occurrence of these four NISs will no further expand in the MPA at the scale of habitat. The highlighted patterns in NIS abundance suggest the importance of detailed sampling designs of monitoring taking into consideration different habitats and depths and using suitable sampling methods to assess NIS establishment and spread, such as those required by international directives. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,207,,Ocean Coast.

The present study aimed at estimating the spatial variability of coralligenous habitat, one of the main important habitats of the Mediterranean Sea, at several spatial scales. Specifically, the following hypotheses were tested: i) the structure of coralligenous assemblage and ii) the abundance of main taxa/groups both changed among different spatial scales differently depending on protection. A hierarchical sampling design was used to study 14 localities (7 Marine Protected Areas and 7 unprotected) at multiple spatial scales through photographic recording. The study suggested that, in protected conditions, the structure of coralligenous assemblages mostly varied at small spatial scale (m apart), while the structure is similar across different localities, sites and areas, even if the abundance of the main taxa/morphological groups changed. In unprotected conditions, variability among localities was higher than among Marine Protected Areas, while an opposite trend was observed at the smaller spatial scales. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.",,62-69,,,175,,Estuar.

It is essential to estimate the spatial and temporal overlap over a fine scale between fisheries and predators during their breeding season, when their energy demand is greatest and when they are most spatially constrained, in order to understand and manage this potential impact on their populations. In the Benguela upwelling region, 2 endemic vulnerable seabirds, Cape gannets Morus capensis and African penguins Spheniscus demersus, mainly eat anchovy Engraulis encrasicolus and sardine Sardinops sagax, both of which are exploited by the purse-seine fishery. A recent eastward displacement of small pelagic fish off the South African coast has reduced fish availability for both birds and fisheries along the west coast. Using GPS-recorders, we studied the foraging dispersal of birds from 8 colonies containing 95% of the global Cape gannet and 60% of the global African penguin populations to assess their overlap with fish catches. Despite the fact that bird data were gathered at very fine spatial and temporal scales (meters and hours), and fisheries data were recorded at much coarser spatial and temporal scales (20 km and months), there was clear overlap in areas used. The main foraging areas of both species were located where purse-seine fisheries caught most fish, with most catches occurring during the birds' breeding season. As birds and fisheries also overlap in the size of the targeted prey and the depth of exploitation, our study suggests the potential for intense competition between purse-seine fisheries and decreasing seabird populations in the southern Benguela. Long-term protection of these seabird species requires the inclusion of a suitable ecological buffer when setting fishery quotas, and implementing marine protected areas closed to fishing around key breeding sites and foraging hotspots may improve their breeding success.",,199-208,,,391,,Mar.

Location: The French Mediterranean coast and three north-western Mediterranean islands: Corsica and also Mallorca and Minorca from the Balearic archipelago. Methods: We performed 187 fish surveys using environmental DNA metabarcoding on three islands and 109 along the continental coast. Of the 78 surveys on islands 22 correspond to no-take marine reserves and of the 109 continental surveys 26 were carried out within reserves. After eDNA filtration, extraction, amplification, and sequencing we estimated the number of fish species but also the number commercial, threatened and elasmobranch fish species on each sample. We then performed an ANOVA by permutation to test the effect of insularity and protection on these four biodiversity metrics. We also modelled these four biodiversity metrics as a function of protection and human pressure but also environmental, habitat and sampling conditions. We also built species accumulation curves to obtain asymptotes representing the potential regional pools for each species category on both island and continental coasts. Results: We obtained a total of 175,982,610 reads over the 187 eDNA samples that were assigned to 153 fish species including 17 elasmobranch species among which 7 were only detected on islands. We observed a higher total fish richness on continental than island surveys regardless of protection but a higher threatened and elasmobranch fish richness on the island than on continental surveys. We obtained a significant, negative and predominant human gravity impact on the diversity of elasmobranch species. The modelled asymptote reached 148 teleostean fish species on islands and 196 on the continental coastline with a very similar rate of diversity increase with sampling effort but the shape of the species accumulation curves differed markedly for elasmobranchs with a stronger increase in diversity with sampling effort on islands. Main Conclusions: Our findings highlight that Mediterranean islands can be refugia for sharks and rays but also threatened fishes in this overexploited region. Our results also suggest that reducing or banning trawling activities may play a key role for conserving vulnerable fishes, beyond the benefits of no-take marine reserves, which appear limited on these large home-range species. © 2024 The Author(s).

Restoration by means of heavy equipment was tested as an alternative to costly manual techniques in a heavily invaded area of relatively flat terrain. Two experiments were conducted in consecutive years at the Eureka Dunes Protected Area in Humboldt County, California. Each experiment consisted of three plots subjected to one of three primary treatments: removal of vegetation with a brush rake, removal of vegetation with a brush rake followed by removal of litter and duff with a plough blade or bucket, and removal of vegetation with tractor-pulled chokers. Plots were then subdivided into smaller secondary treatment plots subjected to one of two treatments or a control. Secondary treatments consisted of weedmat placed for a 1- or 2-year duration. The goal of the treatments was to remove and prevent reestablishment of nonnative vegetation, including but not limited to bush lupine; success was measured by percent cover of recolonizing vegetation 1.5 years after treatment ended. In the first experiment, primary treatment (vegetation removal) but not secondary (prevention of reestablishment) resulted in significant differences in cover by the end of the experiment. The brush rake and plough blade treatment was most successful at preventing reestablishment of nonnative vegetation. In the second experiment, secondary treatment (prevention of reestablishment) but not primary (removal of vegetation) resulted in significant differences at the end of the experiment. Re-invasion increased with the amount of time subplots were left uncovered. The difference in the results of the first and second experiments was attributed to variation in rainfall and, to a lesser extent, to localized variation in species composition. Results suggest that mechanical restoration by means of combination of the brush rake and plough blade primary treatment with the 2-year weedmat secondary treatment would be most successful in meeting the dual goals of removal of nonnative vegetation and prevention of its reestablishment.",,69-74,,1,6,,Restor.

Despite the increased usage of MPAs, empirical results and scientists are divided on the effectiveness of MPAs to reach their conservation and management goals. In 2009, the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council established eight deep-water partially-protected MPAs off the southeast United States (SEUS) Atlantic coast with the goal of protecting long-lived, deep-water, reef-associated fishery species. Data collected during fish trapping from 2000 to 2018 as part of a fisheries-independent survey were used to evaluate the impacts of protection on a subset of fish species in three of these MPAs. There was a modest positive shift to larger fish observed in two of the MPAs and to older fish for one species, Pagrus pagrus (Linnaeus, 1758), in one of the MPAs relative to adjacent fished areas; however, there was either no change or a decrease in managed reef fish abundance in each MPA relative to adjacent fished areas. Based on these metrics, it does not appear that the SEUS MPAs have yet been effective at protecting managed reef fish species. Given that these MPAs have low enforcement, future assessments should examine compliance within the SEUS MPAs to determine if lack of success is due to illegal fishing, species examined, or MPA design before making a final determination if deep-water MPAs are an effective strategy for fisheries managers in the SEUS. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,44,,Reg.

The systematic quantitative review of 758 oral abstracts from the first seven conferences on Monitoring and Management of Visitors in Recreation and Protected Areas answers research questions on methods, goals and locations presented in the last decade as well as discussing trends and recommendations for the future. These major multi-disciplinary conferences are held every two years in different countries in Europe. Most (72%) of the research was from Europe, predominantly from countries where English is not the dominant language. Nearly every abstract was from terrestrial natural areas, often terrestrial protected areas (56%), with only three marine studies. Most abstracts (85%) were in the social sciences, either assessing visitor profile data along with motivations, satisfaction and experiences or focused on psychological aspects such as the attitudes, perceptions and behavior of visitors. Environmental research (32% abstracts) was mostly on vegetation, wildlife and landscape features with limited research on aquatic systems. Technology is driving research, with the analysis of big data from social media transforming where and how visitors can be monitored. Important gaps remain including research from countries and regions with large protected area systems and high levels of visitation including in Asia, South America and Africa, as well as some countries in Europe such as France. Management implications: The article describes the previous trends in this conference series on outdoor recreation. The findings suggest that future conferences could: enhance the attendance and representation of researchers from parts of Europe so far under represented and different parts of the world such as Asia, the Russian Federation and Africa to make the conference truly international, strengthen the relevance of the conference for practitioners and managers, and communicate the value of research, including how new methods and technologies can enhance sustainable decision making.",,Oct-18,,,21,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000428135700002,,,,,,,CONFLICT; CONSERVATION; DISSEMINATION; EXPERIENCES; FOREST ENVIRONMENTS; Hiking; IMPACTS; Mountain biking; National parks; PERCEPTIONS; PUBLIC-PARTICIPATION GIS; Recreation ecology; Social science; SOCIAL VALUES; TOURISM,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The recent increase in their establishment worldwide, fostered by international policies, highlights the need for comprehensive and integrated assessment frameworks able to address the evaluation of their social-ecological effectiveness and management performance, which is of fundamental importance for their adaptive management and decision making processes. Although several indicators and methodologies exist to assess MPAs ecological or social performances, no comprehensive assessment framework currently captures their broad range of objectives, encompassing the ecological, socio-cultural, and economic spheres. In this study, we present a novel quantitative framework (named MPAs Overall Success Evaluation – MOSE) able to assess the overall effectiveness and management performance of MPAs under the perspective of social-ecological systems. The multicriteria framework includes indicators linked to nature conservation, socio-cultural, socio-economic, and management objectives, integrating the multidisciplinary knowledge on MPAs in a single but comprehensive approach. The proposed framework was applied to the case study of Cerbčre-Banyuls Natural Marine Reserve (France), the first MPA included in the IUCN Green List. Results showed that a high level of management effort is applied to the investigated MPA, generating several social-ecological benefits.

Anthropogenic pressure seriously threatens health and long-term sustainability of marine environments. For these reasons, integrated approaches capable of combining ecological and socio-economic aspects are needed to achieve nature conservation and sustainability targets. In this study, the value of natural capital of the Egadi Islands Marine Protected Area (EI-MPA) was assessed through a biophysical and trophodynamic environmental accounting model. The emergy value of both autotrophic and heterotrophic natural capital stocks was calculated for the main habitats of the EI-MPA. Eventually, the emergy value of natural capital was converted into monetary units to better communicate its importance to local managers and policy-makers. The total value of natural capital in the EI-MPA resulted in 1.12·1021 sej, equivalent to about 1.17 billion of euros. In addition, using Marxan software, the results of the environmental accounting were integrated with spatial data on main human uses. This integration took into account the trade-offs between conservation measures and human exploitation by means of two different scenarios, with and without considering human uses in the EI-MPA. The comparison between the scenarios highlighted the importance of taking into account human activities in marine spatial planning (MSP), allowing the identification of key areas for natural capital conservation. In conclusion, this study showed the importance of integrating environmental accounting with conservation planning to support effective strategies for ecological protection and sustainable management of human activities. The results of this study represent a first benchmark useful to explore alternative nature conservation strategies in the EI-MPA, and, more in general, in Mediterranean MPAs. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.",,Jan-13,,,361,,Ecol.

Current methods of image analysis are too slow to meet these requirements. Recently, computer vision has become more accessible to biologists, and could help address this challenge. In this study we demonstrate a method by which non-specialists can train a YOLOV4 Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) able to count and measure a single class of objects. We apply CV to the extraction of quantitative data on the density and population size structure of the xenophyophore Syringammina fragilissima, from more than 58,000 images taken by an AUV 1200 m deep in the North-East Atlantic. The workflow developed used open-source tools, cloud-base hardware, and only required a level of experience with CV commonly found among ecologists. The CNN performed well, achieving a recall of 0.84 and precision of 0.91. Individual counts per image and size measurements resulting from model predictions were highly correlated (0.96 and 0.92, respectively) with manually collected data. The analysis could be completed in less than 10 days thus bringing novel insights into the population size structure and fine scale distribution of this Vulnerable Marine Ecosystem. It showed S. fragilissima distribution is patchy. The average density is 2.5 ind.m(-2) but can vary from up to 45 ind.m(-2) only a few tens of meter away from areas where it is almost absent. The average size is 5.5 cm and the largest individuals (>15 cm) tend to be in areas of low density. This study demonstrates how researchers could take advantage of CV to quickly and efficiently generate large quantitative datasets data on benthic ecosystems extent and distribution. This, coupled with the large sampling capacity of AUVs could bypass the bottleneck of image analysis and greatly facilitate future deep-ocean exploration and monitoring.

Species distribution models have become a widely used tool to generate first-pass estimates of climate change impacts to species probabilities of occurrence. There are a number of technical challenges to constructing species distribution models that can be alleviated by the use of scientific workflow software. These challenges include data integration, visualization of modeled predictor-response relationships, and ensuring that models are reproducible and transferable in an adaptive natural resource management framework. We used freely available software called VisTrails Software for Assisted Habitat Modeling (VisTrails:SAHM) along with a novel ecohydrological predictor dataset and the latest Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 5 future climate projections to construct species distribution models for eight forest and shrub species in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem in the Northern Rocky Mountains USA. The species considered included multiple species of sagebrush and juniper, Aims flexilis, Pinus contorta, Pseudotsuga menziesii, Populus tremuloides, Abies lasciocarpa, Picea engelmannii, and Pinus albicaulis. Current and future species probabilities of occurrence were mapped in a GIS by land ownership category to assess the feasibility of undertaking present and future management action. Results suggested that decreasing spring snowpack and increasing late-season soil moisture deficit will lead to deteriorating habitat area for mountain forest species and expansion of habitat area for sagebrush and juniper communities. Results were consistent across nine global climate models and two representative concentration pathway scenarios. For most forest species their projected future distributions moved up in elevation from general federal to federally restricted lands where active management is currently prohibited by agency policy. Though not yet fully mature, custom scientific workflow software shows considerable promise to ease many of the technical challenges inherent in modeling the potential ecological impacts of climate change to support climate adaptation planning.

Many marine protected areas (MPAs) around the world are ‘paper parks’. A key factor contributing to their ineffectiveness is non-compliance with the rules in place. 2. This paper contributes to the existing academic discussion on ‘paper parks’ by drawing on critical regulation scholarship to develop a theoretical framework to assess and address compliance gaps in MPAs. 3. The theoretical insights are then explored using a case study of the second largest Italian MPA (the ‘Penisola del Sinis-Isola di Mal di Ventre’), employing a multidisciplinary perspective built on both biological and socio-legal expertise. 4. The biological study consists of a review including existing unpublished data on biological resources in the MPA coupled with new analyses on the effects of sea urchin harvesting restrictions. The socio-legal research consists of the analysis of primary qualitative research in the form of semi-structured interviews conducted with key stakeholders at the local and regional level in 2014, followed by two workshops (one with stakeholders and one with the general public) in 2015 to discuss the research findings collectively. 5. The results show that the Sinis MPA is not achieving its conservation goals, primarily because of actors’ non-compliance with the rules. The interviews with key stakeholders reveal a number of interlinked social, normative and calculative motivations at the basis of non-compliance. Policy solutions are then offered. 6. This study offers a novel analysis on ‘paper parks’ that may be applicable to other MPAs experiencing similar compliance issues. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The primary aim of this exercise is to provide guidance for (more) integrated EBM in the North Sea based on an evaluation of the effectiveness of those management measures in contributing to the conservation of marine biodiversity. A secondary aim is to identify the requirements of the knowledge base to guide such future EBM initiatives. Starting from the societal goals we performed a scoping exercise to identify a “focal social-ecological system” which is a subset of the full social-ecological system but considered adequate to guide EBM towards the achievement of those societal goals. A semi-quantitative risk assessment including all the relevant human activities, their pressures and the impacted ecosystem components was then applied to identify the main threats to the North Sea biodiversity and evaluate the effectiveness of the management measures to mitigate those threats. This exercise revealed the need for such risk-based approaches in providing a more integrated perspective but also the trade-off between being comprehensive but qualitative versus quantitative but limited in terms of the “focal” part of the SES that can be covered.

We used The MPA Guide framework to assess the the world's largest 100 MPAs by area, representing nearly 90% of reported global MPA coverage and 7.3% of the global ocean area, and analyzed the distribution of MPA quality across political and ecological regions. A quarter of the assessed MPA coverage is not implemented, and one-third is incompatible with the conservation of nature. Two factors contribute to this outcome: (1) many reported MPAs lack regulations or management, and (2) some MPAs allow high-impact activities. Fully and highly protected MPAs account for one-third of the assessed area but are unevenly distributed across ecoregions in part because some nations have designated large, highly protected MPAs in their overseas or remote territories. Indicators of MPA quality, not only coverage, are needed to ensure a global network of MPAs that covers at least 30% of the ocean and effectively safeguards representative marine ecosystems from destructive human activities. © 2024 The Authors.

For best practice, these networks need to be planned and assessed against multiple criteria. However, building a sound evidence base to support decision-making processes is complex, as well as fiscally and logistically challenging. Recent studies have demonstrated the utility of integrating 'citizen science' data into mainstream scientific analysis, particularly where broad-scale spatial patterns of distribution are required. In UK waters, the pink sea fan (Eunicella verrucosa) is a nationally protected slow growing, cold-water coral, and is a representative species of reef features that provide habitat for many other sessile species. However, this species is vulnerable to physical impact and loss of suitable substratum, and is likely highly vulnerable to bottom-towed fishing gears. In this study, data from a volunteer-based marine survey programme ('Seasearch') are analysed with the aim of describing the spatial distribution and relative abundance of pink sea fan colonies throughout southwest UK coastal waters. The congruence between pink sea fans and the extant southern UK MPA network is reported, and the current threat from Bottom-Towed Gear (BTG) to pink sea fan dominated reefs, that have historically lacked protection, is quantitatively assessed. This analysis reveals that protection of this and other benthic species has been increased by management of previously 'open access' MPAs. Nonetheless, areas of pink sea fan habitat and their host reef systems exist outside extant protected areas in southwest UK seas, and as such are potentially at risk from bottom-towed fisheries. This analysis demonstrates the utility of well-organised citizen science data collection and highlights how such efforts can help inform knowledge on broad scale patterns of biodiversity. © 2015 The Authors.",,38-45,,,64,,Mar.

In UK (English) waters, MPAs incorporate Special Protection Areas (SPAs), Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) and Marine Conservation Zones (MCZs), each with specific conservation objectives. In accordance with legislation, the UK has adopted a feature-based approach to MPA designation and monitoring, whereby protection of listed species and habitats are prioritised. The Eddystone Reef (part of the Start Point to Plymouth Sound and Eddystone SAC, South West UK) is designated solely for its reef features. The reef is at high risk from fisheries, particularly bottom-towed fishing gear. On 1st of January 2014 bottom-towed fisheries were prohibited within designated areas of the reef. In this study, images from drop-down camera surveys were analysed to quantitatively assess patterns in diversity and abundance of benthic fauna on reef and mixed substratum habitats that are closed, and remain open, to bottom-towed fisheries. Coarse sediments in areas closed to bottom-towed gear supported a greater abundance of sessile, upright, slow growing species (e.g. pink sea fans, ross coral, branching sponges) than were present in areas still actively towed over. Coarse sediments open to bottom-towed gear had greater abundances of motile, scavenging or opportunistic species. This study highlights the potential for positive conservation benefits beyond the traditional feature-based approach to MPA designation and monitoring. Further conservation gains could be made by reducing fragmentation of protected habitats and by increasing area coverage of statutory controls on bottom-towed fishing in already designated MPAs. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,134,,Mar.

The Ningaloo Reef Marine Park comprises an area of 4,566 km2 of which 34% is protected from fishing by 18 no-take sanctuary zones ranging in size from 0.08-44.8 km2. To better understand Spangled Emperor movements and the adequacy of sanctuary zones within the Ningaloo Reef Marine Park for this species, 84 Spangled Emperor of a broad spectrum of maturity and sex were tagged using internal acoustic tags in a range of lagoon and reef slope habitats both inside and adjacent to the Mangrove Bay Sanctuary zone. Kernel Utilisation Distribution (KUD) was calculated for 39 resident individuals that were detected for more than 30 days. There was no relationship with fish size and movement or site fidelity. Average home range (95% KUD) for residents was 8.5±0.5 km2 compared to average sanctuary zone size of 30 km2. Calculated home range was stable over time resulting in resident animals tagged inside the sanctuary zone spending ?80% of time within the sanctuary boundaries. The number of fish remaining within the array of receivers declined steadily over time and after one year more than 60% of tagged fish had moved outside the sanctuary zone and also beyond the 28 km2 array of receivers. Long term monitoring identified the importance of shifting home range and was essential for understanding overall residency within protected areas and also for identifying spawning related movements. This study indicates that despite exhibiting stable and small home ranges over periods of one to two years, more than half the population of spangled emperor move at scales greater than average sanctuary size within the Ningaloo Reef Marine Park. © 2014 Pillans et al.",,,,9,9,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,"animal; animal behavior; Animals; article; Australia; bay; Bays; behavior change; Behavior, Animal; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; coral reef; ecosystem; Ecosystem; environmental protection; fish; geography; Geography; habitat selection; habitat structure; habitat use; home range; Homing Behavior; kernel method; Lethrinus nebulosus; nonhuman; organisms by geographical distribution; Perciformes; physiology; population movement pattern; spatial analysis; Spatial Analysis; species diversity; species habitat; time; Time Factors; trend study; tropic climate; Tropical Climate; Western Australia",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Although several measures for MPA performance exist, here we focus on a specific one, namely the ratio of the steady state fish densities inside and outside the MPA. Several 2 patch models are proposed and analyzed mathematically. One patch represents the MPA, whereas the second patch represents the fishing ground. Fish move freely between both regions in a diffusive manner. Our main objective is to understand how fish mobility affects MPA performance. We show that MPA effectiveness decreases with fish mobility for single species models with logistic growth, and that densities inside and outside the MPA tend to equalize. This suggests that MPA performance is highest for the least mobile species. We then consider a 2 patch Lotka-Volterra predator-prey system. When one of the species moves, and the other does not, the ratio of the moving species first remains constant, and ultimately decreases with increased fish mobility, again with a tendency of equalization of the density in both regions. This suggests that MPA performance is not only highest for slow, but also for moderately mobile species. The discrepancy in MPA performance for single species models and for predator-prey models, confirms that MPA design requires an integrated, ecosystem-based approach. The mathematical approaches advocated here complement and enhance the numerical and theoretical approaches that are commonly applied to more complex models in the context of MPA design. © 2016 Elsevier Inc.",,63-77,,,110,,Theor.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the concept of gender, focusing on female leadership in the environmental management actions and competencies of the “Mujeres con Alas” (“Women with Wings”) group. This community group was founded in 2015, in view of the need to integrate women in conservation activities within the protected area “Reserva de la Biosfera Bahía de Los Ángeles,” located on the East coast of Baja California, Mexico. Currently, a group of 11 women carries out monitoring, bird tourism, and environmental education activities. For this study, an ethnography was made with semi-structured interviews and focal groups to document and explore the role of female leadership in environmental management. The group’s strengths, obstacles, and areas of opportunity were identified throughout the bird conservation activities. With this analysis, it was shown how the “Women with Wings” have taken advantage of the given natural resources and they emerged as agents of change through the opportunities of environmental management, with collective actions in favor of both the development and well-being of their community and the natural resource conservation. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,181-196,,,,,,,,,,,Springer,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Springer Clim.

It needs careful management to avoid conflicts with conservation objectives and positively contribute to regional development. Traditional management approaches based on the strict application of the carrying capacity principle are suboptimal. An adaptive management framework has been demanded, but it has been scarcely adopted in practice or explored in previous research. Moreover, appropriate decision-making tools are lacking. This study proposes a combination of cost-benefit analysis (CBA) and real options analysis (ROA) to support the sustainable tourism entrepreneurship development in PAs under an adaptive management framework. Costs are related to the conservation and restoration activities, and benefits to the use and non-use value placed by visitors on it, measured through visitors’ willingness to pay (WTP) for sustainable tourism. The proposed model also embraces uncertainty and flexibility, considering visitors’ WTP and tourism demand as the primary sources of uncertainty. Through the analysis of the sustainable tourism management of Ons Island, part of the Marine-Terrestrial National Park of the Atlantic Islands of Galicia, we exemplify the power of a combined CBA-ROA approach and derive implications for policymakers, PA managers, tourism entrepreneurs, and researchers. © 2021 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.",,249-272,,03-Apr,33,,Entrep.

The goal of this manuscript is to report the intensive harvesting of two marine invertebrate species, the starfish Oreaster reticulatus and the gorgonian Phyllogorgia dilatata, in reef environments of a national priority area for the creation of a Marine Protected Area (MPA) in the Espírito Santo State, central coast of Brazil. These species were present on the 2003 Brazilian Red List of Endangered species as threatened of extinction, but P. Dilatata was removed from the most recent 2014 Brazilian Red List, while O. Reticulatus is currently considered vulnerable. Neither species have been assessed by IUCN. The harvest of these invertebrates was registered in 17% of the 51 days of monitoring (ten expeditions between March 2005 and February 2006), with catches of up to 24 starfishes and 1000 gorgonians in a single day. Starfishes used to be sold to local traders for US$ 0.50 each, and each gorgonian for US$ 0.15. This starfish is already in decline on a regional scale, and the actual harvesting rate of the gorgonian could lead to the extinction of the local population in about 17 years of exploitation. Due to the ecological importance of these two endangered species, their harvest threatens the entire local rocky reef ecosystem. Further ecological and fisheries studies on these species should be conducted, and the definition and creation of the MPA could help to manage all the unsustainable activities conducted and expected in the region. © 2018 Nature Conservation Research.

The goal of this research was to map vegetation physiognomies in a mountainous area by using Sentinel-2 Multispectral Instrument (MSI) data and morphometrical covariates through data mining techniques. The research was based on red-edge (RE) bands, and indices, to classify phytophysiognomies at two taxonomic levels. The input data was pixel sampled based on field sample sites. Data mining procedures comprised covariate selection and supervised classification through the Random Forest model. Results showed the potential of bands 3, 5, and 6 to map phytophysiognomies for both seasons, as well as Green Chlorophyll (CLg) and SAVI indices. NDVI indices were important, particularly those calculated with bands 6, 7, 8, and 8A, which were placed at the RE position. The model performance showed reasonable success to Kappa index 0.72 and 0.56 for the first and fifth taxonomic level, respectively. The model presented confusion between Broadleaved dwarf-forest, Parkland Savanna, and Bushy grassland. Savanna formations occurred variably in the area while Bushy grasslands strictly occur in certain landscape positions. Broadleaved forests presented the best performance (first taxonomic level), and among its variation (fifth level) the model could precisely capture the pattern for those on deep soils from gneiss parent material. The approach was thus useful to capture intrinsic soil-plant relationships and its relation with remote sensing data, showing potential to map phytophysiognomies in two distinct taxonomic levels in poorly accessible areas. © 2019 by the authors.",,,,20,11,,Remote Sens.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI AG,,,,Accessible areas; CLASSIFICATION; conservation units; Conservation units; data mining; Data mining; Decision trees; FOREST VEGETATION; Forestry; Geological conditions; LATIN HYPERCUBE METHOD; Multispectral instruments; ORGANIC-CARBON; PHENOLOGY; poorly accessible areas; Poorly accessible areas; RAIN; Random forest modeling; remote sensing; Remote sensing; SENTINEL-2; Sentinel-2 MSI; SERRA; Soil-landscape relationships; Soils; Supervised classification; Vegetation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

To counter such a threat, policy-makers have created and implemented multiple management strategies, but most were incapable to prevent the decline of several key species. Here, we discuss a new management strategy in force since June 2019 in Brazil that aims to deter the overfishing of parrotfish species of the genera Scarus and Sparisoma. This innovative strategy, here referred to as inverted management, allows the capture of endangered parrotfish species inside management areas, such as partially protected marine areas—MPAs, but bans it elsewhere. This initiative is supposed to be built in a partnership among the government, scientists, managers, and fishers. If implemented correctly, endangered species would recover in the much larger area outside MPAs, and fishers would benefit from the conservation-value of the scarce and valued product. However, to succeed, the strategy depends on the adoption of a series of challenging management rules that are not currently being enforced along an extensive coastline. So far, few MPAs have incorporated rules for endangered species in their management plan, and those that have done so have no plans or the means to enforce them. Therefore, fishing of endangered species is currently ongoing without any management or monitoring in the entire Brazilian coast. Concerned with the challenges to develop plans to recover populations of endangered species faced by Brazilian managers, we suggest wide communication and a ban on the fisheries until management plans are implemented. Additionally, we suggest that the effectiveness of the inverted management strategy for parrotfishes should be assessed before it’s applied to other endangered species. © Copyright © 2021 Pinheiro, Nunes, Coni, Almeida, Sampaio, Ferreira, Meirelles, Hostim-Silva, Pereira, Giglio, Gasparini, Rocha and Ferreira.",,,,,8,,Front.

Location: South-western Atlantic (SWA): Brazilian and Argentinian Provinces. Methods: A database composed of 733 fish species along 23 locations in the SWA (00°55? N to 43°00? S) was compiled based on primary data, literature and museum records. Cluster and beta diversity analyses were carried out to evaluate faunal overlaps among locations and subprovinces. “Target-area-distance effect” and “stepping stones dispersal” hypotheses for assemblage composition were tested through Mantel tests. Relationships between the distribution patterns and ecological traits of reef fish species were investigated through generalized linear mixed-effect models. Results: Out of the 733 fish species, 405 are SWA resident reef fishes, of which 111 (27%) are endemics and 78 are threatened with extinction. Cluster analysis detected six subprovinces in the SWA structured following the target-area-distance model, and with no evidence for a latitudinal gradient in diversity. The greatest overall richness and endemic species richness were found in the east–south-eastern region. Depth range, habitat use and body size were the main drivers of SWA reef fish assemblage structure. Main conclusions: The Brazilian and Argentinian coasts constitute different provinces structured by oceanographic barriers and environmental filters. Similarities among oceanic islands indicate connectivity driven by stochastic and ecological factors. Species richness and endemism indicate that peripheral provinces may also bear centres of origin and biodiversity, patterns driven by parapatric/ecological speciation and the overlap between tropical and subtropical reef fish species. Ecological drivers of reef fish distribution, such as habitat specialization and body size, support hypotheses of speciation in the periphery. New approaches for spatial planning, marine protected areas and off-reserve marine management are essential for the conservation and sustainability of SWA reef fishes. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,951-965,,7,24,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,Argentina; Atlantic Ocean; Atlantic Ocean (Southwest); biodiversity; biogeography; body size; Brazil; connectivity; conservation; conservation management; endangered species; endemic species; endemism; evolution; evolutionary biology; fish; latitudinal gradient; marine park; peripheral region; periphery; Pisces; reef; threatened species; zoogeography,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In a relatively short time frame, the parties have committed to develop marine spatial planning, enforce sustainable management and protection of marine ecosystems, conserve at least 10% of the world's marine habitats, end overfishing, provide access for small-scale fishers, reduce marine pollution and ocean acidification, among others ambitious goals. The ocean has been included in the Paris Agreement, the subsequent Global Climate Action Agenda in 2015, and the 23rd Conference of the Parties of the UN (COP23), held in November 2017, which has assessed the global progress toward the SDG14, organizing several action plans. The UN seems optimistic with the progress achieved towards SDG 14, suggesting that overfishing has slowed down in the past 10 years and that over 8.4% of the world's exclusive economic zones are under protection. However, only a small fraction of that is under strong protection and many priority areas are still unprotected. In addition, major challenges presented by signatory governments are slowing down or compromising the achievement of the 14 SDG targets. Despite the challenges, we envision hope towards the sustainability of the world's marine biodiversity, where managers, scientists, and stakeholders work together to defend biodiversity, ecosystem services, and resources that the world depends on. © 2018",,19-25,,1,17,,Perspect.

Climate Changes, ecosystems unbalances, natural resources depletion, pollution, extreme events, natural catastrophes, humanized overpopulated environments, as well as economical turbulences, represent more than ever, very uncertain terms of an equation that is difficult to balance. Novel procedures are essential to make use of local and global information that is nowadays available from multiple sources, to produce intelligible and actionable models for sustainable development, in particular for the oceans protection, the main support of human life on earth. An example of this procedures is the Oceans Accounts (OA) framework that aims at integrating the biophysical information, measure ecosystem services, track and measure the changes on the ecosystems and link all this data to economic and human activity within a given spatial area. This work presents a novel approach that uses spatial modeling techniques capable of dealing with limited and discrete data, such as Geostatistics. These spatial techniques, combined with remote sensing, can provide a sound background of information for the implementation and leverage of the Oceans Accounts framework. Moreover, an emphasis will be given to the application of the OA framework to marine protected areas (MPA's) with an identification of the main gaps regarding the cycle of collecting, processing and integrating social, environmental and economic data. The main focus will be on enabling the next generation of decision support systems to support design and impact assessment of alternative engineering solutions for marine contexts, such as energy harvesting and offshore platforms or aquaculture, in the context of blue economy, as well as marine planning and economic activities regulation. © 2019 IEEE.",,,,,2019-June,,,,,,,,Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: OCEANS - Marseille, OCEANS Marseille",,,,Biophysical information; Climate change; Conservation; Data integration; Decision making; Decision support systems; Economic activities; Economics; Ecosystems; Energy harvesting; Engineering solutions; Environmental protection; geostatistics; Global informations; marine activities and elements accounting; Marine protected area; Oceanography; oceans accounts; Off shore platforms; Offshore oil well production; Offshore structures; Remote sensing; Resources depletion; Spatial modeling techniques; spatial models; Sustainable development; Uncertainty analysis,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"OCEANS 2019 - Marseille, OCEANS Marseille 2019",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

VL in Brazil is caused by Leishmania infantum, with transmission mainly attributed to Lutzomyia longipalpis, a species complex of sand fly, and is concentrated mainly in the northeastern part of the country. CL is distributed worldwide and occurs in five regions of Brazil, at a higher incidence in the north and northeast regions, with etiological agents, vectors, reservoirs and epidemiological patterns that differ from VL. The aim of this study was to determine the composition, distribution and ecological relationships of phlebotomine species in an Atlantic Forest conservation unit and nearby residential area in northeastern Brazil. Methods: Centers for Disease Control and Shannon traps were used for collections, the former at six points inside the forest and in the peridomestic environment of surrounding residences, three times per month for 36 months, and the latter in a forest area, once a month for 3 months. The phlebotomines identified were compared with climate data using simple linear correlation, Pearson’s correlation coefficient and cross-correlation. The estimate of ecological parameters was calculated according to the Shannon-Wiener diversity index, standardized index of species abundance and the dominance index. Results: A total of 75,499 phlebotomines belonging to 11 species were captured in the CDC traps, the most abundant being Evandromyia walkeri, Psychodopygus wellcomei and Lu. longipalpis. Evandromyia walkeri abundance was most influenced by temperature at collection time and during the months preceding collection and rainfall during the months preceding collection. Psychodopygus wellcomei abundance was most affected by rainfall and relative humidity during the collection month and the month immediately preceding collection time. Lutzomyia longipalpis abundance showed a correlation with temperature and the rainfall during the months preceding collection time. The Shannon trap contained a total of 3914 phlebotomines from these different species. Psychodopygus wellcomei, accounting for 91.93% of the total, was anthropophilic and active mainly at night. Conclusions: Most of the species collected in the traps were seasonal and exhibited changes in their composition and population dynamics associated with local adaptions. The presence of vectors Ps. wellcomei and Lu. longipalpis underscore the epidemiological importance of these phlebotomines in the conservation unit and surrounding anthropized areas. Neighboring residential areas should be permanently monitored to prevent VL or CL transmission and outbreaks.[Figure not available: see fulltext.] © 2021, The Author(s).",,,,1,14,,Parasites Vectors,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: BioMed Central Ltd,,,,"animal; animal trapping; Animals; Article; Atlantic Forest; BATURITE; Brazil; CEARA STATE; classification; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; CUTANEOUS LEISHMANIASIS; ecology; environmental factor; environmental protection; environmental temperature; Evandromyia walkeri; female; Female; forest; Forests; insect vector; Insect Vectors; Leishmania; Leishmania infantum; Leishmaniasis, Cutaneous; Lutzomyia longipalpis; LUTZOMYIA-LONGIPALPIS DIPTERA; male; Male; nonhuman; NYSSOMYIA WHITMANI; parasite identification; parasite vector; parasitology; PARK; Phlebotominae; Phlebotomines; physiology; population abundance; population dynamics; Population Dynamics; Psychodidae; PSYCHODIDAE PHLEBOTOMINAE; Psychodopygus wellcomei; rain; residential area; SAND FLIES DIPTERA; season; Seasonality; Seasons; skin leishmaniasis; species composition; species distribution; temperature; Temperature; VISCERAL LEISHMANIASIS; WILD",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The aim of this study was to develop a screening test based on hematological parameters and histological lesions in tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum), to allow the assessment of environmental impacts on fish inhabiting a protected area in Maranhăo inside of Brazilian Amazon. Samples collected during three years (2012, 2013 and 2014) were grouped by season (dry and rainy) Water samples were also collected for physical chemistry analysis. Blood samples were stained with Acridine Orange to detect micronuclei and erythrocyte abnormalities. Gill tissues were stained with hematoxylin and counterstained with alcoholic eosin, and histopathological lesions were scored on a scale of 1–3, being 1 = minimal pathological importance, 2 = moderate pathological importance and 3 = marked pathological importance. A screening test for evaluating environmental impact was developed by fitting the measured data (necrosis, erythrocyte abnormalities, number of micronuclei) from tambaqui. A three-dimensional surface was fit to the empirical data. Our proposed model predicted the probability of necrosis (observed in euthanized animals) based on the numbers of micronuclei and abnormal erythrocytes (observed in blood samples from live animals) (correlation coefficient R = 0.89). The methodology could be applied for predicting contamination histories (chronic pollution that induces branchial lesions) in rivers using the micronucleus and erythrocyte abnormalities of the fishes (with a simple blood sample). © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,445-451,,,214,,Chemosphere,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,"abnormality; acridine orange; Amazonia; animal; Animalia; Animals; Article; Atlantic Ocean; biological marker; biomarker; Biomarkers; biomonitoring; Biomonitoring; Biomonitoring programs; blood; Blood; blood sampling; blood system disorder; Brazil; cell component; Chemical analysis; chemistry; Colossoma macropomum; Colossoma marcopomum; Conservation; Correlation coefficient; environmental exposure; Environmental Exposure; environmental impact; environmental monitoring; Environmental Monitoring; Environmental protection; erythrocyte; Erythrocyte abnormality; Erythrocyte Indices; Erythrocytes; fish; Fish; Fishes; gill; Gulf of Maranhao; Hematological parameters; hematology; histology; Maranhao; Mathematical model; Mathematical models; mean corpuscular volume; Micronuclei, Chromosome-Defective; micronucleus; Micronucleus; necrosis; Necrosis; nonhuman; numerical method; numerical model; pathology; physical chemistry; Physical chemistry; physiology; Pisces; pollution effect; procedures; protected area; river; River pollution; Rivers; screening test; season; Seasons; surface property; testing method; Three-dimensional surface; water pollution",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Harbour porpoise are the smallest and one of the most abundant cetaceans occurring throughout the European continental shelf waters, and are affected by human activities occurring in the same waters, especially certain fishing activities. The Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats (the Bern Convention) and its implementing legislation the Council Directive on the Conservation of Natural Habitats and of Wild Fauna and Flora 92/43/EEC (i.e. the Habitats Directive) are the main legal drivers for species conservation throughout the European Union. They aim for the long-term achievement of favourable conservation status and make provision for the use of two conservation measures: protected areas and strict protection measures. The strict protection measures aim to ensure that all forms of deliberate killing are prevented, and that where incidental killing and capture occurs, it does not have a negative effect on conservation status. The conservation of harbour porpoise is currently dependent upon tackling the key issue of bycatch in fisheries. However, in challenges to Member States on their application of the Habitats Directive, the European Commission has chosen to focus on site designation rather than the implementation of the strict protection measures required to monitor and, where necessary, reduce bycatch. This tension between a legal focus on the designation of protected areas instead of tackling threats such as bycatch has potentially led to negative conservation consequences for harbour porpoise and, in part, may explain why wider marine biodiversity has continued to deteriorate in Europe. © 2021 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,3291-3310,,11,31,,Aquatic Conserv.

In this paper will be shown the main results of the project focusing on the geobotanical studies, ex situ conservation and restoration activities carried out in three Site of Community Importance (SCI) areas selected in the South Sardinia. The geobotanical analyses were carried out in order to characterize the flora and vegetation of the Juniperus habitat and the particular ecological traits of Juniperus macrocarpa respectively. In addition, three detailed maps related to the habitat and vegetation for each coastal dune systems were drawn. To carry out the ex situ conservation of coastal dune plants, germplasm (seeds and fruits) was collected and stored in the Sardinian Germplasm Bank (BG-SAR); moreover effective protocols for the germination of 12 key species of the Juniperus habitat were identified, for the purpose of obtain their propagation and reinforcement. An experimental project to reinforce the native germplasm of structural species of coastal habitats such as Pancratium maritimum, Pistacia lentiscus and J. macrocarpa was realized, using the grafting groups that is sand trap systems that encouraged the embryonic dunes formation and dune consolidation, and permanent plots (bio-mats coconut fiber installed to reduce wind erosion and protect the plant roots) previously installed, with the aim to reinforce species populations and contain habitat fragmentation. Restoration actions were performed ensuring the manual removal of invasive alien plant species and the subsequent planting of native ones. Other measures to reduce the human impacts, mainly due to trampling, such as wooden walkways and light fences were realized.

This study aimed to characterize the types of fish use and test whether there is a relationship between uses of fish in the communities studied. Methods: This study was conducted during the months of January to October 2013, on the beaches of Tamandaré and Batoque, both located in Northeast Brazil. Information was collected through interviews with 75 artisanal marine fishermen on the fishes they knew and their forms of use. Results: The fishermen interviewed were male, between 22 and 84 years old, and they had been fishing for over 10 years and had a low educational level. Fishermen from Tamandaré mentioned 339 popular fish names, representing 222 taxa, while Batoque fishermen mentioned 305 popular fish names, representing 215 taxa. Six types of uses of fish were characterized: food, commercial, medicinal, handicrafts, spiritual-religious purposes and aquarium. It was found that there were multiple uses for fish and that there was a relationship between these different uses, reinforcing the importance that fish have on the culture and economic activities of fishing communities. Conclusions: Artisanal fishing should be understood as a cultural activity, because the different and multiple uses fish make up the dynamics of fishing communities. Just as in the areas of this study, some of these communities are included in protected areas and, therefore, fishermen must be involved in the development and implementation of management plans of these units. © 2015 applies to the data made available in this article, unless otherwise stated.",,,,1,11,,J.

Biologists are not typically trained or licensed for the requisite engineering involved in construction. Likewise, non-biologists designing habitat often can lead to egregious results. For example, unintentionally constructing the wrong habitat, i.e., refuge for predators in a nursery area, or habitat that facilitates the spread of non-desirable species can increase, rather than ameliorate, the impact of construction.

Methods: Eleven low-order streams (1st to 3rd order) were sampled in two conservation units located in the island of Santa Catarina (southern Brazil) between 2010 and 2012. Immature specimens of Odonata were collected using a Surber sampler. The influence of water abiotic parameters and habitat structure (mesohabitats: riffle vs. pool areas, microhabitats: litter vs. stone substrates) on the composition of Odonata was tested through the seasons using ordination diagrams and redundancy analysis. Results: Nine odonate genera from seven families were recorded in the study region. The genera Desmogomphus, Epigomphus (Gomphidae), Heteragrion (Heteragrionidae) and Perilestes (Perilestidae) have their first records described for the state of Santa Catarina. Additionally, biological notes are provided for other odonate genera concerning substrate use. The composition of Odonata communities changed over the seasons and they were influenced by water temperature and velocity. Additionally, odonate composition differed significantly between microhabitats (substrate type) and mesohabitats (riffle vs. pool areas) in the streams studied. Conclusions: The lower genera richness of Odonata recorded in the island of Santa Catarina in relation to other Brazilian subtropical streams is probably associated with the insular condition of the study region. This study also demonstrated that substrate (organic and inorganic) and mesohabitat (riffle and pool) types were important drivers of the composition of the fauna of immature odonates, evidencing the role of climate and habitat structure in influencing subtropical stream insect communities. © 2020, Sociedade Brasileira de Limnologia.

Here, recreational uses of one of the main dive destinations in the western south Atlantic (Fernando de Noronha Archipelago) were estimated at three different scales: the entire archipelago (through travel cost method), the marine resources (through diving) and sharks (through shark diving). The total recreational use of the archipelago was estimated at $90.2 million USD annually. Divers are responsible for $36.4 million USD out of the total value of all services produced for tourists. Sharks provide 4% of the total economic benefit within the tourism industry ($2.64 million USD). The distance from the archipelago, income and length of stay are predictors for tourists' daily expenses. Even though sharks do not represent a tourism target for the archipelago at this point, shark diving earned higher amounts than the sum acquired by well-established industries at other sites. In addition, 23% of tourists interviewed become interested in shark diving after they arrive, demonstrating that this activity carries the potential to expand in the archipelago. However, if shark diving is to be encouraged, this development has to be approached cautiously, to maintain the standards required locally to other marine fauna ecotourism, and without use of bait to avoid potential negative effects of supplemental feeding. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.",,31-39,,,72,,Mar.

The establishment of MPAs has increased greatly in recent years mostly due to international commitments to the establishment of a global network of MPAs by 2012. MPAs have the potential to strongly affect the fishing industry, and their success depends, at least partly, on fishers' attitudes towards this management measure. However, research on MPAs tends to focus on the ecological and conservation aspects of this management approach and not on its human dimensions. Studies in attitudes, perceptions, beliefs and preferences related to MPA issues have been identified as priority social science topics in need of research. We present a 'rapid review', conducted systematically, of the literature published up to September 2009 and aimed at identifying the most investigated topics related to commercial fishers' attitudes towards MPAs, describing the main findings from these studies, and analysing the implications for management. Most published work focuses on fishers' attitudes towards issues of governance, conservation of biodiversity and the environment, and the impact of MPAs on fishing activity. Despite the recent increase in the literature on the human dimensions of MPAs, the present review reveals that little of this literature originates from empirical studies. Hence, given the forthcoming increase in the implementation of MPAs in the near future, research on fishers' attitudes towards these management measures is critically needed. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,289-306,,1,670,,Hydrobiologia,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Attitudes; Beliefs; biodiversity; commercial species; empirical analysis; Fishers; fishing industry; habitat conservation; literature review; marine ecosystem; marine park; Marine protected areas; perception; Perceptions; Rapid review; Systematic,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Quantitative ecological risk assessment can be used to evaluate actual risks and to help guide the choice of management measures needed to meet sustainability objectives. We develop and apply a quantitative method for assessing the risks to benthic habitats by towed bottom-fishing gears. The method is based on a simple equation for relative benthic status (RBS), derived by solving the logistic population growth equation for the equilibrium state. Estimating RBS requires only maps of fishing intensity and habitat type – and parameters for impact and recovery rates, which may be taken from meta-analyses of multiple experimental studies of towed-gear impacts. The aggregate status of habitats in an assessed region is indicated by the distribution of RBS values for the region. The application of RBS is illustrated for a tropical shrimp-trawl fishery. The status of trawled habitats and their RBS value depend on impact rate (depletion per trawl), recovery rate and exposure to trawling. In the shrimp-trawl fishery region, gravel habitat was most sensitive, and though less exposed than sand or muddy-sand, was most affected overall (regional RBS = 91% relative to un-trawled RBS = 100%). Muddy-sand was less sensitive, and though relatively most exposed, was less affected overall (RBS = 95%). Sand was most heavily trawled but least sensitive and least affected overall (RBS = 98%). Region-wide, >94% of habitat area had >80% RBS because most trawling and impacts were confined to small areas. RBS was also applied to the region's benthic invertebrate communities with similar results. Conclusions. Unlike qualitative or categorical trait-based risk assessments, the RBS method provides a quantitative estimate of status relative to an unimpacted baseline, with minimal requirements for input data. It could be applied to bottom-contact fisheries world-wide, including situations where detailed data on characteristics of seabed habitats, or the abundance of seabed fauna are not available. The approach supports assessment against sustainability criteria and evaluation of alternative management strategies (e.g. closed areas, effort management, gear modifications). © 2016 The Authors.

Movement toward this goal may represent the only hope for fisheries, as we know them, to exist 50 years in the future alongside essential services provided by marine ecosystems. First, I review archaeological, historical, and recent evidence that bears witness to a long, dismal record of overexploitation. Second, I examine the ecological effects of overfishing on aquatic ecosystems. Fish with life histories and spatial behavior inimical to harvesting are selectively removed, both within and among species. The loss of keystone species and the replacement of high-value, demersal resources with pelagic, rapid-turnover, low-value species shifts the nature of ecosystems, evidenced by accelerating local extinctions and a worldwide decline in trophic level. Disconcertingly, harvest limits that appear safe by single species evaluation can engender ecosystem changes that are hard to reverse. Driven by a progression of clever human harvest technologies, three ratchet-like processes have brought about episodes of depletion. ""Odum's ratchet"" is ecological in nature, comprising depletion and local extinction. ""Ludwig's ratchet,"" economic in nature, is a positive feedback loop between increased catching power and serial depletion, driven by the need to repay borrowed money. ""Pauly's ratchet"" is cognitive, shifting the baseline of what each generation regards as primal abundance and diversity. Third, a rebuilding policy goal is distinguished from that of sustaining current catches and biomass, since the baseline can refer to present misery. In this sense, present policies can inadvertently foreclose future options for the generation of food, wealth, and services from ocean resources. A policy to rebuild ecosystems can reverse this trend and maximize economic value in tomorrow's markets, where supply will vastly outstrip demand for high-quality fish products. Fourth, I outline a novel methodology, termed ""Back to the Future,"" that can implement a goal of ecosystem rebuilding. Models of past ecosystems are reconstructed using information about the presence and abundance of species from historical documents, archaeology, and local and traditional environmental knowledge (LEK and TEK). Economic evaluation compares past with present and alternative ecosystems. ""Back to the Future"" gives the TEK of aboriginal and indigenous peoples a valuable, direct function in resource management. Finally, I discuss two practical management measures, paralleling recent developments in terrestrial reconstruction ecology, the implementation of large no-take marine reserves, and the reintroduction of high-value species that were formerly endemic.",,601-617,,2,11,,Ecol.

We present a co-conservation network, formally linking site-focused partners who cooperatively monitor and actively manage multispecies FSAs. FSA sites and networks offer great potential as conservation bright spots to replenish fished populations, rehabilitate marine ecosystems, and ensure the flow of ecosystem services to the millions of people that rely upon them for their wellbeing.

Growing concern over human impacts upon coastal waters and global strategic goals for healthier cities requires that coastal cities develop innovative ways to inspire and empower communities to embrace and cherish city seascapes. Coastal city communities have much to gain from a healthier relationship with the sea. This paper proposes a collaborative community-led marine park concept that celebrates a city's connection to the marine environment, enhances sustainable economic prosperity and enables communities to participate in activities that deepen understanding, value, care and enjoyment of the city seascape. A city marine park (CMP) is not a marine protected area because it does not have biodiversity and heritage protection or ecosystem governance as a primary goal and does not aim to restrict human activities. A CMP enables city communities to collaborate towards a shared vision of elevated status and value for the city seascape. A CMP considers socio-economic and geographical context, including land-sea connectivity, and is integrated within a coastal city's strategic urban planning. This paper highlights core themes of a CMP and the diverse and wide-ranging benefits from coordinated activities that better connect the city community with its seascape. If co-created by the coastal city community and civic leaders, a CMP will form an enduring spatial nexus for progress toward healthy cities addressing multiple interlinked global sustainable development goals. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,160-171,,,103,,Mar.

Scaling up of nature-based solutions (NbS) to effectively protect, sustainably manage, and restore coastal seascapes is urgently required for mitigation of climate change and biodiversity loss while also providing socio-economic benefits. Evidence-based site selection is an important first step to improve the outcomes and avoid negative impacts when prioritizing NbS investments at national level. We developed a spatially explicit, integrative and culturally relevant ecosystem-based site selection process to identify a portfolio of seascapes for NbS consideration in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The primary goal was to rank planning units based on potential for climate change mitigation action, positive impact to biodiversity and socio-economic benefits to people. The multi-criteria site-selection framework provided a rapid, transparent, repeatable and scalable tool. The highest weightings were assigned to blue carbon storage value, biodiversity conservation features, and local stakeholder preferred areas. Spatial proxies for benefits to people were represented by population density and accessibility to coastal seascapes, relative tourism and recreation potential, and importance of fish habitat and fishing grounds for food security. Participatory mapping of local knowledge and review of existing data ensured that both qualitative and quantitative criteria were reliable, up-to-date and locally relevant. Two distinct clusters of high suitability planning units were identified in the Abu Dhabi region and four along the north-western coast of the UAE. Most high suitability sites were located outside of existing marine protected areas. Alternative spatial scenarios without stakeholder bias underscored the suitability of sites identified through participatory mapping and highlighted additional priority sites for future scaling-up of NbS. A spatial corridor of medium and high suitability planning units across the region offers potential for designing well-connected NbS investments to accelerate and boost synergistic outcomes and increase resilience. The site selection framework provides a rapid tool that integrates local and global open access data at a range of scales with great potential for transferability to other regions worldwide.

The study area was divided into 10 vegetationally and pedologically contrasting sites: coastal steppe (CS), ravine bottom (RB), dunes with Prosopis flexuosa (PF), sandy-bottomed ravine (SBR), dunes with Skytanthus acutus (SA), coastal range (CR), piedmont with Nolana sp. (PN), inland dunes (ID), steppe with Nolana sp. (EN), and steppe with Atriplex sp. (EA). A total of 2187 specimens were captured, belonging to 73 species in 31 families. Of these 73 species, 26 belonged to Arachnida, and 47 to Insecta. The two dominant orders of the Arachnida assemblage were Solifugae (22.8% of total capture) and Araneae (5.7%). Insecta accounted for 69.1% of the total capture and was dominated by two orders: Coleoptera (33.8%) and Orthoptera (21.9%). The most abundant arthropod families were the solifuge Mummucidae (22.5%), the coleopteran Tenebrionidae (19.4%), and the orthopteran Gryllidae (18.8%). Particularly important among these families was Tenebrionidae which was represented by 18 species and 11 genera. The sites with the highest abundance of tenebrionids were PF (61.9%) and SBR (11.8%). The highest species diversity was observed in SBR (13) and PF (11). The differences in vegetation between the sites were clearly reflected in the numerical contribution of most taxa. This information will help implement compensation actions, develop a reclamation plan, and consolidate a conservation management plan for the Quebrada del Morel private protected area. © Pacific Coast Entomological Society.",,Aug-21,,1,88,,Pan-Pac.

Although legally protected in almost every country of its native distribution, the aoudad continues to be hunted for meat and trophy in both North Africa and the countries where it has been introduced. The species was subject to past translocations planned irrespectively of the genetic diversity and local adaptations of source and receiving populations, and no management or conservation units have ever been designed. We aim to provide here important insights on the taxonomy of the aoudad subspecies and the genetic diversity of most of its wild and captive populations. We collected 127 invasive and non-invasive samples from five of the six subspecies of aoudad recognized to date. We could successfully retrieve genetic data for 74 samples. Of those, 36 provided both nuclear (11 microsatellites) and mitochondrial (Cyt-b) data, 31 just nuclear data, and six just mitochondrial data. We implement Bayesian approaches to infer the population structure and phylogenetic relationships between the different populations/subspecies and backtrack the maternal lineages of introduced individuals in European populations. Our results support the presence of four genetically different wild populations, corresponding to three distinct mitochondrial lineages plus a fourth group restricted to Egypt identified by the nuclear markers. We also provide genetic evidence on the affiliation of some introduced European populations with respect to the native ones. The genetic diversity instead of variation within all wild populations was low. This might be a consequence of small effective population size and/or high inbreeding degree, probably related to hunting, decline in habitat availability and quality (i.e. overgrazing, and frequent drought), and high inbreeding degree. Our results provide important information for the aoudad conservation, including reintroductions and reinforcement actions of wild populations, and the exchange of individuals among captive stocks. © The Author(s) 2023.",,59-73,,1,25,,Conserv.

Overlapping drivers of change maps with distribution maps of sensitive species provides valuable information to identify where and when it would be better to target actions to minimize the risk. The overall aim of this study was to develop a methodology for the integration of risk mapping associated with high human frequentation to guide conservation actions in two case study: the Kentish plover (Charadrius alexandrinus) and Posidonia meadows (Posidonia oceanica), both sensitive to human frequentation. To achieve this, we used two types of geolocated mobile phone information from the STRAVA platform: mapped paths and roads number of visitors at hourly precisions and a sporting activities heatmap representative of a wider period, together with species ecological information and complementary human frequentation data. The final, monthly risk maps identified the areas for Kentish plover with null, low, moderate, high, very high risk attributed to different aspects of the breeding biology of the species, nests, nestlings, and adults. The risk thresholds for nests are lower than for nestlings and adults, thought nestlings were generally less sensitive to human frequentation than adults. Visitors number ranges between 250 and 700 approximately suppose a moderate risk for the three assessed periods, and more than 1200 visitors appeared to prevent the nesting of the species completely. The final risk maps for Posidonia meadows determine the areas with low, moderate, hight and very high risk for human marine activities. Human frequentation values in this case study are scaled between 0 and 1, the results shows that values above 0.1 imply a high risk for the species. Both types of information can be used to target concrete, spatially explicit actions to minimize the risk caused by human frequentation. Furthermore, the first case study would allow to adapt the target actions to the species breeding phenology. The proposed risk assessment workflow is flexible and may be adjusted to match the available information and eventually could be adapted to other conservation objectives arising from different threats. In addition, data gathered from mobile mobility applications show great potential to accurately identify human frequentation, both spatially and temporally. © 2024 The Authors",,,,3,10,,Heliyon,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,Biodiversity conservation; Charadrius alexandrines; Environmental change drivers; Human frequentation; Posidonia oceanica; Pressure,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Extensive control programs on the GBR involve manual culling of COTS in the field, and research is needed to inform these management efforts. Data from the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority’s (GBRMPA) COTS control program provide near-real-time CPUE (Catch-Per-Unit-Effort, COTS culled per minute) data ideal for operational decision-making but these must be converted to density estimates before they can be related to ecological status of reefs or incorporated into ecological models. We developed conversions between common COTS field survey methods (i.e. manta tow, SCUBA transect searches) and COTS control program CPUE data using estimates of sightability and detectability. We used a population model and COTS size-structure data from COTS control program culling efforts to estimate that, on average, only 19% of 1-yr-old COTS (1–15 cm) are available to be culled. Finally, we developed a CPUE-COTS density relationship to estimate the threshold levels of COTS that prevent net growth of hard corals. Culling programs should therefore aim to achieve CPUEs below these ecological thresholds in order to effectively promote coral growth and recovery. These ecologically sustainable thresholds of COTS density varied depending on hard coral cover. For example, for 35% fast-growing coral cover, COTS culling needs to continue until CPUE decreases to below 0.05 COTS/min (1 COTS per 20 min) in order to prevent coral decline, whereas if coral cover is higher (80%), then a higher target threshold CPUE of ca. 0.08 COTS/min (ca. 3 COTS per 40 min) may be ecologically sustainable. These estimates underpin the current pest management rules being implemented by the GBRMPA in its COTS control program. © 2020, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,1483-1499,,5,39,,Coral Reefs,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH,,,,Acanthaster; Acanthaster cf. solaris; Acanthaster planci; ACANTHASTER-PLANCI; Acanthastercf; Anthozoa; Australia; coral reef; Coral reef; COTS; Culling; decision making; disturbance; echinoderm; Ecological threshold; environmental management; Great Barrier Reef; Great Barrier Reef Marine Park; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; growth; Indian Ocean; INJECTION; LIZARD ISLAND; Manta; MODEL; OUTBREAKS; Pacific Ocean; Pest management; population decline; Queensland; solaris,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The observed decline in population size between 1995 and 2003 led to the declaration of a part of the Kvarneri? as the Cres-Lošinj Special Marine Reserve (CLSMR) in 2006. Protection lasted 3 years, before lapsing. A boat based photo-identification study was conducted between 2004 and 2011 with the aim to estimate the number of bottlenose dolphins inhabiting the CLSMR area, investigate the factors influencing their habitat use and explore the possibility that this area is representative of the population for the whole Kvarneri?. Standard mark-recapture methods and the Mth estimator of Chao for closed populations were applied. The lowest value was estimated in 2008 (N=112; 95% CI=94-150) and the highest in 2006 (N=310; 95% CI=265-392). The statistically significant inter-annual variability is likely to reflect natural and anthropogenic driven shifts in habitat use rather than real changes in population size. The average monthly sighting rate was lower in the tourist season (Jun-Aug) than in the pre- and post tourist-season, suggesting that developed nautical tourism may influence shifts in habitat use. Other potential causes are distribution of prey and fishing effort. Inclusion of data from the rest of the Kvarneri? for the years of 2005 and 2011 did not reveal a significant increase in estimated abundance (2005: z=-0.413, P=0.3398; 2011: z=-1.749, P=0.0401). This indicates that the CLSMR area is representative of the whole Kvarneri?. The number of bottlenose dolphins using the CLSMR area seems to have increased compared with the previous study (1995-2003). This could be due to a shift in habitat use or an increase in population size. However, yearly variations indicate processes causing displacements within the dolphin population home range. Conservation measures aiming at reducing the displacements are proposed. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,125-137,,1,25,,Aquatic Conserv. Mar. Freshw.

The analysis of the evaluation reports of the currently 15 UNESCO biosphere reserves in Germany shows a high variation in the degree of implementing the ecosystem services approach. The biosphere reserves at the North Sea coast are leading, possibly as they are subject to the trilateral agreement on the Wadden Sea, as the evaluation reports are fairly new, and they have better equipped management, being biosphere reserves and national parks at the same time. Important barriers of the implementation of the ecosystem services approach may arise from limited resources and from the administrative allocation of reserve management to environmental ministries, which is in conflict with the cross-sectoral character of the ecosystem services approach. © 2016, Oekom - Gesellschaft fuer Oekologische Kommunikation mbH.

The enhancement of connectivity is crucial for the conservation of biodiversity and landscape planning. Ecological Corridors (ECs) are an important type of connectivity for biodiversity conservation in fragmented habitats. The EU Biodiversity Strategy 2030 includes ECs into the network of protected areas and allows for the creation of additional protected areas. MSP studies considering ECs remain still lacking, especially for the design of networks between Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) and Other Effective area-based Conservation Measures (OECMs). In this paper, knowledge, and tools for investigating marine ECs were reviewed, with a systematic bibliometric analysis to summarize the current scientific research. Previous studies integrating ecological connectivity into planning for marine conservation have focused on models of larval dispersal, adult movements, and dispersal of single species by using benthic habitat proxies. Few studies were found on ECs in marine environments: in the coral Caribbean reef systems in the Gulf of Mexico; within benthic habitats along the Pacific coast of Canada; between MPAs in British Columbia (Canada); and by analyzing migratory species in the Yangtze estuary (China). Commonly used approaches to project and map ECs in marine environments are least-cost and circuit theories allowing to incorporate movement with cost or resistance to movement, depending on species and preferred habitats. The systematic bibliometric analysis returned 25 studies, most of which were from North America (40%) and European countries (36%) and the largest share of papers (68%) from 2018 to 2022. This review pinpointed the need of integrating different disciplines to investigate connectivity and the need by policymakers and practitioners to recognize the importance of ecological connectivity, even there are significant challenges for integrating connectivity into policies, planning, and conservation.",,,,,10,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001086195700001,,,,,,,BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION; CLIMATE-CHANGE; connectivity; conservation; ecological corridors; GLOBAL TARGETS; HARBOR SEALS; LANDSCAPE CONNECTIVITY; LARVAL DISPERSAL; marine protected areas; maritime spatial planning; other effective area-based conservation measures; PRIORITY AREAS; RESERVE NETWORKS; SEALS PHOCA-VITULINA; SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In this study, habitat suitability was assessed using multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) for the restoration of the European oyster, Ostrea edulis, in marine protected areas (MPAs) of the German Bight in the North Sea: Borkum Reef Ground (Borkum Riffgrund, BRG) and Sylt Outer Reef – Eastern German Bight (Sylter Außenriff, SAR). Based on site selection criteria, exclusion and suitability factors for the MCDA were defined. Results were integrated with the available geodata to produce habitat suitability maps for oyster restoration in the area of interest. Suitable as well as unsuitable habitats have been successfully identified for both MPAs: several hundred square kilometres (?97.2% of BRG) or several thousand square kilometres (?74.5% of SAR) were classified as ecologically and logistically suitable for oyster restoration measures in the respective MPAs. As oyster restoration is significantly limited by human activities (e.g. bottom trawl fisheries), the management of fisheries is an important prerequisite for successful oyster restoration in both MPAs. Results show that designated fishery management measures will increase the possibilities for oyster restoration. In BRG, our results correspond to the known historical distribution. In SAR, our results significantly exceed the historically known distribution. The habitat suitability analysis will facilitate decision-making regarding ocean use, and will reduce restoration costs through targeted management activities in areas of high suitability and expand species recovery by improving the survival of reintroduced individuals. The habitat suitability analysis procedure is easily adaptable for application to other areas, other species, or other habitat restoration projects, or to other conservation management settings. The software applied is open source and the suitability calculation is described in detail to inform wider applications. © 2023 The Authors.

More than 85 % of the world's oyster reefs have already been destroyed, have disappeared or their existence is under severe and immediate threat. Due to their central ecological importance for benthic and bentho-pelagic systems and processes associated with important ecosystem functions and services, the restoration of oyster reefs is a focus of marine conservation measures worldwide. In the context of marine spatial planning and complex land use conflicts, and aimed at maximising the ecological success of such restoration measures, GIS-based habitat suitability analyses for oyster reintroduction have been conducted. The aim of the present study was to model and identify suitable habitats for the European oyster within the marine protected areas of Borkum Reefground and Sylt Outer Reef in the German Bight for which the restoration of biogenic reefs, namely native oyster reefs is a designated measure. For this purpose, a multi-criteria decision analysis was designed and applied. Based on geodata of the ecological habitat preferences of the European oyster and relevant logistic factors (contraindicated uses), suitable large- scale areas were successfully identified for which a reintroduction of the formerly native species is favourable. Both suitable and unsuitable habitats could therefore successfully be identified for both nature reserves. Due to the large impact of different standardisation procedures for the suitability variables applied, corresponding results may differ quite severely. Hence four different classifications were applied on the most important factor, ground fisheries accounting for a relative weighting of ca. 30% in the derived suitability formula. The results undermine the necessity of well-grounded scientific and practical reasons to decide on a suitable classification procedure in the multicriteria analysis. © 2022, VDE Verlag GmbH.

Measures maintaining or restoring a favourable conservation status of protected species and habitats are mandatory according to the EU Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC). 2.Identification of suitable sites for ecological restoration measures within MPAs is a crucial step towards successful conservation and sustainable MPA management. In terms of species restoration, it is important to restore the respective species with the best possible environment for growth, survival, fitness, and successful recruitment. 3.This study provides a comprehensive list of site-selection criteria for ecological species restoration. Three general categories were chosen: (1) ecological history: evidence for the historical distribution; (2) feasibility of restoration: regulating framework and logistics; and (3) environmental conditions: quality of abiotic and biotic factors. A total of 16 site-selection criteria were identified and applied to biogenic reef restoration, namely for reefs of the native European oyster Ostrea edulis, in the German Bight. 4.The Natura 2000 area Borkum Reef Ground was identified as a suitable site for oyster restoration. It is one of three MPAs in the German Exclusive Economic Zone of the North Sea, which have been declared as Nature Conservation Areas according to national legislation. The conservation objectives include maintenance or, if necessary, restoration of the habitat type ‘reefs’. As a reef-building species, the European oyster O. edulis is of particular importance for this habitat type in terms of nature conservation. 5.The step by step approach for site selection presented here is applicable for biogenic reef restoration elsewhere. The selected Natura 2000 area showcases the potential role and future perspective of European MPAs with regards to active conservation measures. © 2020 The Authors.

In order to satisfy the objectives of forest conservation on the one hand and the utilization claims of the local population on the other, an integrated concept of nature conservation and sustainable land use development is being sought (e.g. Ellenberg 1993). Within the human ecological research project of the German Research Foundation (DFG) presented here, four research topics have been explored in detail in indigenous Shuar and Saraguro as well as local Mestizo communities of southern Ecuador: Research topic 1 is concerned with the use of wild plants and local agrobiodiversity. In the research area land use is focused on cattle ranching, which poses the main threat to forests and to biodiversity. Based on an ethnobotanical survey conducted in Shuar, Saraguro and Mestizo communities, the use of non-timber forest products (NTFPs) and the cultivation of plant species in demand in home gardens have been identified as promising options for increasing household incomes. Research topic 2 deals with the local people’s perception and evaluation of the natural environment, environmental stress/risk factors and conservation measures. Although deforestation is an ongoing process within the research area, Saraguro and Mestizo farmers clearly prefer to live in areas with forest and highly value the economic functions of the forests, e.g. as an agricultural reserve which can be inherited by their children. Conservation measures have long since been established in the research area, but local people are not aware and have not been informed about resource use regulations and restrictions. Research topic 3 investigates livelihood strategies of local communities which to varying degrees depend on natural resources. Whereas the Shuar’s livelihood strategies to a large extent depend on subsistence agriculture (shifting cultivation) combined with fishing, hunting, and gathering of wild plants, the Saraguros and Mestizos are mainly engaged in agro-pastural activities that combine market economy (cattle ranching) and subsistence economy (crop production and horticulture). Research topic 4 is concerned with the determination of the political and administrative use agreements including land tenure systems. North of Podocarpus National Park current land use and land tenure conflicts are founded primarily on the colonization process starting in the 1950s, and are severely dependent on state policies on land adjudication, increase of accessibility, and national or international concern for nature conservation and environmental protection. Despite the remoteness of many communities living in the tropical rainforests of southern Ecuador, the local people have never been completely isolated from global processes of ecological, political, cultural and economic changes. Recently, the research area was declared as Biosphere Reserve Podocarpus – El Cóndor. Since biosphere reserves are strongly rooted in cultural contexts, in southern Ecuador it thus can be the vehicle for protecting tropical mountain ecosystems and developing sustainable forms of land use at the same time. © 2010, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.",,477-509,,9.78364E+12,,,Environ.

Establishing formal protected areas is one means of conserving habitat, but socio-economic and political constraints limit the amount of land in such status. Addressing conservation issues on lands outside of formal protected areas is also necessary. In this paper we develop a spatially explicit model for analyzing the consequences of alternative land-use patterns on the persistence of various species and on market-oriented economic returns. The biological model uses habitat preferences, habitat area requirements, and dispersal ability for each species to predict the probability of persistence of that species given a land-use pattern. The economic model uses characteristics of the land unit and location to predict, the value of commodity production given a land-use pattern. We use the combined biological and economic model to search for efficient land-use patterns in which the conservation outcome cannot be improved without lowering the value of commodity production. We illustrate our methods with an example that includes three alternative land uses, managed forestry, agriculture, and biological reserve (protected area), for a modeled landscape whose physical, biological, and economic characteristics are based on conditions found in the Willamette Basin in Oregon (USA). We find that a large fraction of conservation objectives can be achieved at little cost to the economic bottom line with thoughtful land-use planning. The degree of conflict between conservation and economic returns appears much less using our joint biological and economic modeling approach than using a reserve-site selection approach, which assumes that species survive only inside of reserves and economic activity occurs only outside of reserves. © 2005 by the Ecological Society of America.",,1387-1401,,4,15,,Ecol.

Biodiversity conservation is a key management priority for SBNMS and yet data on the diversity of microorganisms, both prokaryotic and eukaryotic, is lacking. This study utilized next generation sequencing to characterize sedimentary communities within SBNMS at three sites over two seasons. Targeting 16S and 18S small subunit (SSU) rRNA genes and fungal Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) rDNA sequences, samples contained high diversity at all taxonomic levels and identified 127 phyla, including 115 not previously represented in the SBNMS Management Plan and Environmental Assessment. A majority of the diversity was bacterial, with 59 phyla, but also represented were nine Archaea, 18 Animalia, 14 Chromista, eight Protozoa, two Plantae, and 17 Fungi phyla. Samples from different sites and seasons were dominated by the same high abundance organisms but displayed considerable variation in rare taxa. The levels of biodiversity seen on this small spatial scale suggest that benthic communities of this area support a diverse array of micro- and macro-organisms, and provide a baseline for future studies to assess changes in community structure in response to rapid warming in the Gulf of Maine. © 2019, The Author(s).",,,,1,9,,Sci.

The site selected for marina development on the island of Lefkada is near the main town, on location ""Alykes"", This shallow and protected area was not maintained after the closure of the salt work activities and the area was flooded by sea water, creating an ecosystem characterized by high primary production and depths not exceeding 70 cm and as shallow as 20 cm, Salt work activities, as well as materials used for recent land fill efforts, have increased concern about the physiochemical characteristics of the seabed sediments and dumped land fill soil. Marina development dictated extensive dredging in order to obtain operating depths for pleasure boats ranging from 4 to 8.5 meters, Previous studies performed as required by the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) procedures in order to obtain planning and construction permits, described in great detail environmental indicators of the marine and coastal pre-construction environment. Dredged materials were also analyzed in order to assess the quality and therefore the management/disposal strategies in order to avoid the dispersal of potentially contaminated sediments. The paper presents and compares the environmental data obtained before and after marina construction, the objective being to quality review the Environmental Impact Assessment process and investigate the degree to which a linear system such as an EIA is adopted and applied to a dynamic environment such as a marina, Based on these findings, conclusions and proposals as to how the EIA process might, more effectively, highlight and therefore mitigate significant environmental impacts due to marina construction and dredging are made. © 2002 WIT Press, Ashurst Lodge, Southampton, SO40 7AA, UK.

To determine the MERs' effectiveness in protecting and enhancing fishery resources - their stated goal - it is essential to allocate resources and develop mechanisms for monitoring them over time. This, however, requires financial and personnel resources that may or may not be readily available from the state. An alternative or complement lies in the possibility of involving local fishermen in the collection of data and other, related management tasks. Big Creek Ecological Reserve, is unique among the four MERs in that such a system of cooperative management had emerged well before its formal establishment. Since 1991, the manager of the adjacent terrestrial reserve and local fishermen have mapped and systematically collected data on rockfish catches at sites near the marine reserve in an attempt to monitor the effects of local fishing on the MER and vice verse. We explore the Big Creek arrangement, its history and evolution, as well as current efforts to refine and enhance the system so that it may better serve research and management needs. We discuss the cooperative arrangement in connection with its benefits for both local fishers and managers including 1) the provision of low cost, high quality fishery-dependent data to complement fishery-independent data for the evaluation of the relationship between the MER and local fisheries, and 2) the maintenance of ongoing communication among local fishermen, researchers and managers.

Whether Andean ancestry is also associated with body proportions and greater postnatal body size at altitude is unknown. Therefore, we tested whether a greater proportion of Andean ancestry is associated with stature and body proportions among Peruvian children at high and low altitude. Methods: Height, head circumference, head-trunk height, upper and lower limb lengths, and tibia, ulna, hand and foot lengths, were measured in 133 highland and 169 lowland children aged 6 months to 8.5 years. For highland and lowland groups separately, age-sex-adjusted anthropometry z scores were regressed on the number of indigenous parental surnames as a proxy for Andean ancestry, adjusting for potential confounders (maternal age and education, parity, altitude [highlands only]). Results: Among highland children, greater Andean ancestry was negatively associated with stature and tibia, ulna, and lower limb lengths, independent of negative associations with greater altitude for these measurements. Relationships were strongest for tibia length: each additional Andean surname or 1,000 m increase at altitude among highland children was associated with 0.18 and 0.65 z score decreases in tibia length, respectively. Anthropometry was not significantly associated with ancestry among lowland children. Conclusions: Greater Andean ancestry is associated with shorter stature and limb measurements at high but not low altitude. Gene-environment interactions between high altitude and Andean ancestry may exacerbate the trade-off between chest dimensions and stature that was proposed previously, though we could not test this directly. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.",,798-806,,6,27,,Am.

Significant changes in the composition of mammal communities due to the elimination or displacement of species have been documented. In the face of accelerated environmental degradation, mammal inventories are vital for understanding the structure and composition of communities and facilitating conservation strategies. In Tamaulipas, mammal studies have focused on protected areas, overlooking ecosystems such as submontane scrublands, which, despite being impacted by human activities, can serve as refuges and biological corridors. Studying these ecosystems is crucial for describing ecological aspects and developing effective conservation and management strategies. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate the diversity and richness of medium and large mammals in a submontane scrubland. The study area is located southwest of Casas, Tamaulipas. Ten single camera trap stations were set and remained active from July 2020 to June 2021. Species richness was estimated with Chao 1 and Jacknife 1. Diversity values of orders one and two were estimated, and the species composition and abundance were compared between dry and rainy seasons using PERMANOVA and SIMPER analyses. A total of 457 records of 12 species were obtained, the most abundant being Odocoileus virginianus, Dicotyles tajacu, and Leopardus pardalis. Significant differences in species composition between seasons were detected, with Dicotyles tajacu, Odocoileus virginianus, Nasua narica, and Leopardus pardalis accounting for 85.32 % of the differences in species composition between seasons. Although the area is impacted by the introduction of free-grazing cattle, Leopardus pardalis is the third-most recorded species and is protected by NOM-059-SEMARNAT-2010. In addition, during the sampling, five of the six Mexican felids were reported and the family Felidae is listed in Appendix II of CITES, so the area should be considered for permanent monitoring to establish conservation strategies. © 2024 Asociación Mexicana de Mastozoología.",,269-277,,3,15,,Therya,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Asociacion Mexicana de Mastozoologia,,,,Abundance; diversity; dry season; mammals; rainy season; species richness,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Static spatial and temporal closures are used in many places as a tool to reduce bycatch. However, their effectiveness in achieving this goal is uncertain, particularly for highly mobile species. We evaluated evidence for the effects of temporal, static, and dynamic area closures on the bycatch and target catch of 15 fisheries around the world. Assuming perfect knowledge of where the catch and bycatch occurs and a closure of 30% of the fishing area, we found that dynamic area closures could reduce bycatch by an average of 57% without sacrificing catch of target species, compared to 16% reductions in bycatch achievable by static closures. The degree of bycatch reduction achievable for a certain quantity of target catch was related to the correlation in space and time between target and bycatch species. If the correlation was high, it was harder to find an area to reduce bycatch without sacrificing catch of target species. If the goal of spatial closures is to reduce bycatch, our results suggest that dynamic management provides substantially better outcomes than classic static marine area closures. The use of dynamic ocean management might be difficult to implement and enforce in many regions. Nevertheless, dynamic approaches will be increasingly valuable as climate change drives species and fisheries into new habitats or extended ranges, altering species-fishery interactions and underscoring the need for more responsive and flexible regulatory mechanisms. © 2022 National Academy of Sciences.

This study assesses the situation of the Blue Economy in the Gulf of Guinea and proposes strategies for its operationalization. A qualitative research approach was used to examine each member state's marine conservation initiatives, regional collaboration, management approaches, and strategic frameworks. Findings show that the Gulf of Guinea is already experiencing blue economy activities, but challenges like rapid population growth, urbanization, piracy, unsustainable anthropogenic activities, poor institutional frameworks, and climate change hinder the transition. The Gulf of Guinea's ocean economy accounts for less than 10% of GDP, so integrating the blue economy into trade strategies is crucial for its transformation. A systematic approach based on national priorities, social context, and resource base is needed to foster social inclusion, economic progress, and sustainable ocean development. Enablers of blue growth, such as integrated coastal zone management, marine spatial planning, marine protected areas, marine biodiversity, and blue justice discourse, must be integrated into policy design, prioritizing sustainability and equity. A cautious, phased approach is suggested, focusing on establishing traditional sectors, growing them, integrating value chains, and implementing regional collaboration so that the blue economy delivers on its social, environmental and economic goals in the Gulf of Guinea.

Twenty-three of the 36 EDUs in BC are underrepresented. Coastal river ecosystems have a greater percentage of area protected relative to their total area compared to headwater, mainstem, and tributary systems. Underrepresented river ecosystem types include interior low-relief rivers, especially those in the northeast, and sheltered outer coast and island coastal rivers. Underrepresented lake ecosystem types include interior low-relief drainage lakes, interior low-relief isolated lakes in the northeast, and large, interior headwater lakes. Both river and lake high-relief systems have relatively high protection percentages because many of the province's larger protected areas are located in mountainous regions. Based on our river and lake representation analysis, we suggest focusing protection efforts on low-relief river and lake ecosystems, particularly interior and small isolated lakes.

In this study, we analyse the reproductive parameters of P. elephas populations in two different fully protected areas, including their surrounding commercial zones, in Sardinia (Italy, central-western Mediterranean), where a restocking programme was carried out. Here, data on fecundity, size at maturity, vitellogenin concentration and temporal trends of egg production of P. elephas was provided, and the relevance of this information for fisheries management and conservation planning is discussed. In 1990s, the European spiny lobster Palinurus elephas, one of the most commercially important species in the Mediterranean, exhibited a population decline. For this reason, fully protected areas (FPAs) appeared effective in re-establishing natural populations and supporting fishery-management objectives. Here, the reproductive parameters of P. elephas populations in two different FPAs (Su Pallosu and Buggerru, central-western Mediterranean), where a restocking programme was carried out, and in their surrounding commercial zones, were investigated from quantitative and qualitative perspectives. The comparison of fecundity between females collected inside and outside FPAs did not show statistical differences as well as the vitellogenin concentration, which did not vary among eggs of different size classes of females caught inside and outside the FPAs, indicating the same reproductive potential. The study demonstrated a benefit of overexploited populations in terms of enhancement of egg production overtime (15 years for Su Pallosu and 6 years for Buggerru) with a mean egg production 4.25-5.5 times higher at the end of the study than that observed at the beginning of the study. The main driver of eggs production appeared to be size, with larger lobsters more present inside the FPAs than outside. Given these results, the dominant contribution of the two studied FPAs to the regional lobster reproduction is remarkable.",,,,8,11,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000846323700001,,,,,,,egg production; EGG SIZE; European spiny lobster; EUROPEAN SPINY LOBSTER; fecundity; FECUNDITY; JASUS-EDWARDSII; LOBSTER PANULIRUS-MARGINATUS; MARINE RESERVE; MATE CHOICE; no-take zones; reproductive output; SEXUAL-MATURITY; SOUTHERN ROCK LOBSTERS; VITELLOGENIN,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, observational data are often lacking, particularly from developing countries, hindering effective conservation design. One such data-poor area is the Gulf of Guinea, an understudied and biodiverse region where coastal waters play a critical role in coastal livelihoods. Here, we describe the results of the largest national-scale Baited Remote Underwater Video Systems (BRUVS) survey in the region, aiming to understand the effects of several environmental variables on fish community composition and diversity. From 2018 to 2020, we successfully deployed 417 benthic BRUVS in the coastal waters of the Săo Tomé and Príncipe (STP) archipelago. Species richness and relative abundance were higher in deeper waters, on steeper slopes, and in rocky reef habitats. Nevertheless, maerl and sand habitats also hosted unique, and economically important species. Our results potentially indicate historical impacts of fishing in the archipelago, especially in Săo Tomé Island, where observed fishing effort is higher. Indeed, abundance of large predatory fish was low in both islands and abundance of species targeted by artisanal fisheries was lower in Săo Tomé than in Príncipe. Our results provide crucial information supporting the designation and future monitoring of marine protected areas in STP. © 2024 Porrińos et al.

Frequently, multiple authorities manage these areas with varied and sometimes conflicting goals. This study examines a regulatory model implemented on the Cape Cod National Seashore in the US that uses federally-approved zoning to regulate private uses for protection of natural coastal resources. Local authorities implement the zoning which is designed to support national resource protection goals making this a prime model of cross-level governance for conservation. I use case study analysis to evaluate the program's effectiveness by focusing on implementation and compliance in the context of multi-jurisdictional (i.e., national to local) relations. The analysis and subsequent discussion highlight the difficulties associated with implementation of intergovernmental mandates. Also, theoretical perspectives on compliance give insights about the implementation challenges of this model. The model's limitations have implications for policymakers considering similar schemes implemented by split and hierarchical authorities with different, and possibly conflicting, coastal management goals. © Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2008.",,121-131,,2,11,,J.

We explore the qualities of 117 MPAs in the Mediterranean basin and develop a taxonomy of their characteristics. We relate the spatial distribution of the MPAs to the various characteristics of the taxonomy (size, distance from shore, protection levels, management regimes, etc.) and to areas of high human impact and influence levels. To do this we use information on biogeographic regions and information from two different human influence models; one model developed for the marine environment and one covering the littoral terrestrial environment. Our analysis provides insights to planners and managers working in a regional capacity and trying to build MPA networks. Generally, current MPAs have not been established in high impact areas despite their being close to shores containing intense human activity. Decision-makers wishing to design and establish new MPAs may seek out areas of high cumulative human impacts (near the marine- terrestrial interface) or avoid them depending on marine conservation objectives, including the desire to vary types of MPAs within a network.

Particularly, these targets require the design and implementation of an ecologically representative network of marine protected areas that covers 10% of the Mediterranean surface by 2020. Despite the many efforts to gather spatial information about threats to the Mediterranean and conservation planning initiatives that identify sensitive areas for conservation, we are far from achieving this target. In this paper, we briefly review existing and proposed conservation initiatives at various scales throughout the Mediterranean to recognise those that have political endorsement and those that serve more as lobbying tools. We then propose a model process that can be applied to advance marine spatial planning within the eleven ecologically and biologically significant areas (EBSAs) through a multi-step process designed for moving conservation forward in this particularly complex region. The proposed process combines tenets of professional urban/regional planning and systematic conservation planning. As shown with two specific examples, despite some conventional wisdom, there is enough information on the Mediterranean Sea to move forward with ecosystem-based marine spatial management for conservation purposes using the EBSAs as a starting point - and the time is right to do so. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,270-279,,,42,,Mar.

Marine protected areas are under pressure from various stressors, one of the most important issues being pollution by marine litter, especially plastic. In this study our aim is to establish the distribution pattern and potential sources of solid waste in the different marine/coastal ecosystems of the islands of Providencia and Santa Catalina (SBR), as well as assess any interconnections between these ecosystems. At the same time, the distribution characteristics of marine litter in the different compartments facilitated a more dynamic understanding of the load of marine litter supplied by the islands, both locally and externally. We observed that certain ecosystems, principally back-beach vegetation and mangroves, act as crucial marine litter accumulation zones. Mangroves are important hotspots for plastic accumulation, with densities above eight items/m2 (minimum 8.38 and maximum 10.38 items/m2), while back-beach vegetation (minimum 1.43 and maximum 7.03 items/m2) also removes and stores a portion of the marine litter that arrives on the beaches. Tourist beaches for recreational activities have a low density of marine litter (minimum 0.01 and maximum 0.72 items/m2) due to regular clean-ups, whereas around non-tourist beaches, there is a greater variety of sources and accumulation (minimum 0.31 and maximum 5.41 items/m2). The low density of marine litter found on corals around the island (0–0.02 items/m2) indicates that there is still no significant marine litter stream to the coral reefs. Identifying contamination levels in terms of marine litter and possible flows between ecosystems is critical for adopting management and reduction strategies for such residues. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,813,,Sci.

Two protection areas which, historically, have been targeted by fisheries directed at blue ling (Molva dypterygia), were defined. The study aims to assess the effectiveness of restricting fishing activity within the protection areas during the blue ling spawning period (March-May) and to determine whether the existing boundaries are fit for purpose. Estimations of the spatial apportionment of blue ling landings within and outside the protection areas are achieved by combining low-resolution data from fishing vessel logbook entries with higher-resolution vessel monitoring system (VMS) data. High-resolution spatial apportionment of blue ling landings is limited by a lack of high-resolution logbook data, and certain assumptions need to be made on whether vessels are engaging in fishing activity at any individual VMS data point, based on vessel speed and types of fishing gear available. Although current measures appear to have influenced fishing activity in the vicinity of the protection areas, more evidence is needed for a robust evaluation of their effectiveness in protecting blue ling.

Our rationale is that distinct multivariate groups correspond to evolutionarily independent metapopulation lineages because they reflect the common signal of different secondary defining properties (environmental and genetic distinctiveness, phenotypic diagnosability, etc.) that imply the existence of barriers preventing or limiting gene exchange. We applied this method to study a group of endangered poison frogs, the Oophaga histrionica complex. In our study case, we used next-generation targeted amplicon sequencing to obtain a robust genetic data set that we combined with patterns of morphological and ecological features. Our analyses revealed the existence of at least five different species in the histrionica complex (three, new to science), some of them, occurring in small isolated populations outside any protected areas. The lineage delimitation proposed here has important conservation implications as it revealed that some of the Oophaga species should be considered among the most vulnerable of the Neotropical frogs. More broadly, our study exemplifies how multiple-amplicon and multivariate statistical techniques can be integrated to successfully identify species and their boundaries. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,3432-3451,,17,27,,Mol.

An increasing rate of global IFL area reduction was found, largely driven by the tripling of IFL tropical forest loss in 2011–2013 compared to that in 2001–2003. Industrial logging, agricultural expansion, fire, and mining/resource extraction were the primary causes of IFL area reduction. Protected areas (International Union for Conservation of Nature categories I to III) were found to have a positive effect in slowing the reduction of IFL area from timber harvesting but were less effective in limiting agricultural expansion. The certification of logging concessions under responsible management had a negligible impact on slowing IFL fragmentation in the Congo Basin. Fragmentation of IFLs by logging and establishment of roads and other infrastructure initiates a cascade of changes that lead to landscape transformation and loss of conservation values. Given that only 12% of the global IFL area is protected, our results illustrate the need for planning and investment in carbon sequestration and biodiversity conservation efforts that target the most valuable remaining forests, as identified using the IFL approach. © 2017 The Authors. some rights reserved.",,,,1,3,,Sci.

This paper describes a species prioritization approach that incorporates both the rarity of species, because of the increased vulnerability associated with rare species, and their evolutionary distinctiveness (ED), a measure of evolutionary originality. Rarity and ED scores, and scores for the two combined, were calculated for 352 North American forest tree species. A weak but significant phylogenetic signal was associated with species rarity. The scores were used to weight species importance values on approximately 130,000 forest inventory plots across the conterminous United States. The resulting plot-level estimates of conservation value were employed to identify geographic hotspots of forests with high conservation value, and to assess whether forests with protected status effectively conserve rarity and ED. Rarity hotspots were detected in California, the Southwest, central Texas, and Florida. Hotspots of ED included locations along the Pacific Coast, in the Northern Rockies, and in scattered eastern locations. Protected forest areas across the United States effectively conserve ED, but not rarity. In fact, rarity was lowest in areas with the highest protection, and highest in areas with no or unknown protected status. Multiple-use protected areas had higher ED, but not rarity, than restricted-use protected areas. Protected area effectiveness varied across the country. Such spatially explicit assessment approaches can help determine which forests to target for monitoring efforts and pro-active management activities. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,34-46,,,224,,Biol.

The pattern of landscape-level tree mortality varies over the course of beetle outbreak and by the presence and location of active breeding sites. Increased understanding of rules governing the unmanaged spread of beetle-induced tree mortality over the landscape would help to optimise management control strategies on the borderline between highly valuable protected areas and surrounding managed forests. Our study aimed to quantify the dynamics of standing tree infestation patterns from two infestation sources: windthrow and previous-year beetle infestations. Specifically, we (i) evaluated dispersal distances between the nearest infestation source and new infestations, (ii) quantified size and shape of infestation spots, (iii) modelled an infestation gradient and (iv) probability of new infestation during the incipient, peak and decline phases of beetle outbreak. Based on one- and two-year records of colour-infrared aerial photography, taken between 2005 and 2015, we identified windthrown and beetle-killed trees in the non-intervention zone of Tatra National Park, Slovakia (Central Europe). The size and compactness of infestation spots evolved from small and simple to more extended and complex shapes during beetle epidemics. In total, 40% of infestations were smaller than 100 m2 and 79% smaller than 500 m2. Spot growth dominated over spot initiation, with the mean spot growth extent during peak epidemic (54.8 m). Beetle infestations reached the upper tree line (1605 m a.s.l.). In total, 71% of new infestations emerged within 100 m and 97% within 500 m from an infestations source. Emergence of new infestations varied between infestation sources and phases of beetle outbreak. New beetle infestations emerged near windthrown locations during incipient and peak phases and near source beetle infestations during peak and decline phases following inverse power-law function. We found that the forest within 100 m from the active infestation compared to more distant buffers had the highest risk of infestations. The distance to previous-year infestations should be considered as one of the main factors in determining the risk of subsequent tree mortality, especially if other predictors are absent. If the active wind disturbances or beetle infestations neighbour the border of the unmanaged protected area, the search and sanitation felling of active breeding trees should be concentrated within 500 m from the border of unmanaged protected areas in order to restrain the spread of beetle infestations from nature reserve to surrounding managed forests. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.",,489-500,,,432,,For.

Unfortunately, carbon emissions from deforestation in dry forests remain poorly understood as high spatial-temporal and vertical heterogeneity complicate biomass mapping. Here, we use a novel Gradient Boosted Regression framework to test the relative gains of combining optical (MODIS) and radar (Sentinel 1) time series, as well as lidar-based (GEDI) canopy-height information, to map biomass in tropical dry forests. We apply our approach across the entire Dry Chaco ecoregion (about 800,000 km2), using an extensive ground dataset of forest inventory plots for training and validation, to map above-ground biomass (AGB) for the year 2019. Our best AGB model had an r2 of 0.89 (RMSE = 15.1 t/ha) with an estimated AGB in remaining natural vegetation of 4.65 Gt (+/? 0.9 Gt). Seasonal metrics from EVI time-series, combined with seasonal Sentinel 1 metrics, had the highest predictive power, while adding GEDI-based canopy height did not improve models. Our resulting AGB maps had a much higher level of agreement with independent ground-data than global AGB products (agreements between r2 = 0.07–0.41), which all suffer from a huge, up to 14-fold, underestimation of AGB in the Chaco. Most of the remaining AGB stored in Chaco woodlands is found in Argentina (2.4 Gt AGB), followed by Paraguay (1.13 Gt AGB) and Bolivia (1.11 Gt AGB). Our results also highlight that 71% of the remaining AGB is located outside protected areas, and around half of the remaining AGB occurs on land utilized by traditional communities. Together, our analyses reveal substantial risk of continued high carbon emissions should agricultural expansion progress. Considerable co-benefits appear to exist between protecting traditional livelihoods and carbon stocks. Our map, the most accurate and fine-scale AGB map for this global deforestation hotspot, can serve as a basis for land-use and conservation planning aimed at leveraging such co-benefits. More broadly, our analyses reveal the considerable potential of combining time series of optical and radar data for a more reliable mapping of above-ground biomass in tropical dry forests and savannas. © 2021 Elsevier Inc.",,,,,269,,Remote Sens.

Conservation policies must incorporate this dynamic to ensure the long-term conservation of biodiversity which is particularly challenging in a context of extreme urbanization. An original approach, rarely used for plant conservation, is to define conservation units to set conservation priorities within species by combining ecological and evolutionary divergences. In the Maritime Alps (southern France), the ecological and evolutionary divergences between the populations of Acis nicaeensis has allowed us the determination of conservation units of this endemic plant threatened by severe urbanization and land-use changes. Phylogeographical data (cpDNA haplotype) were considered as a proxy for evolutionary legacy, and ecological data (multivariate analysis of habitat) were used as a proxy for ecological distinctiveness. Our goal was to explore the potential of this approach to assess vulnerability and set conservation priorities for narrow endemic species in the context of conflict between biodiversity and human activities. The results highlight five different conservation units within A. nicaeensis distribution. Genetic and ecological divergences are present at fine-scale. This pattern is highly endangered by urbanisation.

The project is in concordance with National Programme for Development of Islands and national priorities of scientific research activities in the Republic of Croatia. Its realisation will ensure the permanent prosperity of fishery and tourism and contribute to the development of the Croatian coastal area, especially of islands. Materials and methods: We shall present results of the research made so far in one of the areas proposed for special protection - the marine park in the aquatorium and some terrestrial parts of the Silba Island. The area covers the southern part of the Silba Island and extends towards the south-west encompassing the Greben islets and the sea towards islands of Premuda and Skarda. In the present preliminary research, the following main characteristics of the marine area were established: dimension and bathymetry; physical parameters: temperature, salinity, density, transparency, and colour chemical parameters: concentration of nutrients, pH and oxygen concentration; benthic bionomy: distribution and composition of benthic communities, and composition of coastal populations of fish, cephalopods, and crustaceans. Ornithological researches have been undertaken as well as researches of terrestrial fauna. Results of the present researches of terrestrial flora were collected. Basic climatic characteristics of the wide area of the Silba Marine Park were also taken into consideration. Conclusion: To achieve the main goal of the project i.e. to establish a network of specially protected areas along the Croatian coast of the Adriatic Sea, it is necessary to set up the marine park(s) managing organisation , define tasks, structure and competence, estimate the necessary number of employees, equipment and funds needed for realisation of this network.

Unlike the longer history and faster growth of the field in North America, Europe, and Africa, movement ecology in Asia has only recently been gaining momentum. Here, we provide a review of the field from studies based in India over the last 11 years (2011–2021) curated from the database, Scopus, and search engine, Google Scholar. We identify current directions in the research objectives, taxa studied, tracking technology and the biogeographic regions in which animals were tracked, considering the years since the last systematic review of movement ecology research in the country. As an indication of the growing interest in this field, there has been a rapid increase in the number of publications over the last decade. Class Mammalia continues to dominate the taxa tracked, with tiger and leopard being the most common species studied across publications. Invertebrates and other small and medium-sized animals, as well as aquatic animals, in comparison, are understudied and remain among the important target taxa for tracking in future studies. As in the previous three decades, researchers have focussed on characterising home ranges and habitat use of animals. There is, however, a notable shift to examine the movement decision of animals in human-modified landscapes, although efforts to use movement ecology to understand impacts of climate change remain missing. Given the biogeographic and taxonomic diversity of India, and the fact that the interface between anthropogenic activity and wildlife interactions is increasing, we suggest ways in which the field of movement ecology can be expanded to facilitate ecological insights and conservation efforts. With the advancement of affordable technologies and the availability of analytical tools, the potential to expand the field of movement ecology, shift research foci, and gain new insights is now prime.

Data from the inventory of mangrove area issued by the Perhutani of KPH Purwakarta 2017 were also used as supplement in determining the extent of destruction. From satellite imagery, the mangrove area in 2017 was 258 hectares. This area was only approximately 3% of the total area of mangrove protected areas assigned by the Regency Spatial Plan. Compared to the condition in 2009, the coastal destruction was significant. The worst mangrove degradation occurred in the sub-districts of Cibuaya, Tempuran, and Cilamaya Wetan.

Unfortunately, these delicate systems have experienced illicit human interventions in recent times, resulting in degradation and deterioration. Despite being designated as protected areas, wetlands are being exploited beyond their ecological capacity, posing a threat to their sustainability and potential existence in the near future. The present study aims to analyse the historical spatial changes in three wetlands located in Kerala, India, both before and after their declaration as Ramsar sites. Ashtamudi Lake, Sasthamkotta Lake, and Vembanad Lake were the focus areas, and the study employed multi-temporal satellite data sets from 1988 to 2023 to generate land use and land cover maps. The objective was to assess the ecological transitions, particularly the expansion of urbanization and subsequent reclamation of wetlands. By analysing the changes in aerial extent of each land cover class within the study area, the study identified spatio-temporal transitions and modifications occurring in and around the Ramsar sites. A comparison of the thematic maps from 1988 to 2023 revealed a significant increase in built-up areas and a noticeable reduction in vegetation, agriculture, and water bodies, both in terms of extent and quality. The study identified various socio-economic drivers that are responsible for these changes and emphasized the urgent need for regular monitoring and management of these wetland ecosystems.

There is widespread evidence that high-level predators' extirpation may trigger trophic cascades leading to the degradation of marine ecosystems. Restoration of large carnivores to former levels of abundance might lead to ecosystem recovery, but very few pristine ecosystems are left as baselines for comparison.Marine protected areas (MPAs) can trigger initial rapid increases of high-level predator abundance and biomass. Nevertheless, long term protection is needed before the ecosystem's carrying capacity for large carnivores is approached and indirect effects on lower trophic levels are observed.The Mediterranean is probably very far from its pristine condition, due to a long history of fishing. Today small to medium-sized consumers (e.g. sea breams) are the most abundant predators shaping coastal benthic communities, while historical reconstructions depict abundant populations of large piscivores and sharks inhabiting coastal areas. Mediterranean MPAs are following a promising trajectory of ecosystem recovery, as suggested by a strong gradient of fish biomass increase. Consistent monitoring methods to assess relative variations of high-level predators, together with food-web models aimed at disentangling the indirect effects of their recovery, could be useful tools to help set up appropriate management strategies of MPAs. © 2013 © 2013 Taylor & Francis.",,176-193,,2,4,,Adv.

Underwater Visual Census techniques (UVC) are used to monitor fish assemblages in MPAs. UVCs should be adapted to fish abundance, body-size and behaviour, which can strongly affect fish detectability. In Mediterranean subtidal habitats, however, UVC strip transects of one surface area (25x5 m2) are commonly used to survey the whole fish assemblage, from large shy fish to small crypto-benthic fish. Most high trophic level predators (HTLPs) are large shy fish which rarely swim close to divers and, consequently, their abundance may be under-estimated with commonly used transects. Here, we propose an improvement to traditional transect surveys to better account for differences in behaviour among and within species. First, we compared the effectiveness of combining two transect surface areas (large: 35×20 m2; medium: 25×5m2) in quantifying large, shy fish within and outside Mediterranean MPAs. We identified species-specific body-size thresholds defining a smaller and a larger size class better sampled by medium and large transects respectively. Combining large and medium transects provided more accurate biomass and species richness estimates for large, shy species than using medium transects alone. We thus combined the new approach with two other transect surface areas commonly used to survey crypto-benthic (10×1 m2) and necto-benthic (25×5 m2) species in order to assess how effectively MPAs protection the whole fish assemblage. We verified that MPAs offer significant protection for HTLPs, their response in terms of biomass and density increase in MPAs was always higher in magnitude than other functional groups. Inside MPAs, the contribution of HTLP reached >25% of total fish biomass, against <2% outside MPAs. Surveys with multiple transect surface areas allow for a more realistic assessment of the structure of the whole fish assemblage and better assessment of potential recovery of HTLPs within reserves of HTLP. © 2017 Prato et al.

Understanding the mechanisms driving these recolonizations is important for proactive conservation planning. Using the brown bear (Ursus arctos) and the Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus) as examples, we explore where and when large carnivores are likely to expand into human-dominated landscapes and how varying levels of resistance due to human pressure might impact this recolonization process. Location: Iberian Peninsula. Methods: We used ensembles of species distribution models to relate species occurrence data to climate, topography and satellite-based land-cover predictors at a 10 km spatial resolution. Resulting predictions of suitable habitat areas were fed into a dispersal model to simulate range expansion over the 10 time-steps for different human pressure scenarios. Finally, we overlaid predictions with protected areas to highlight areas that are likely key for future connectivity, but where human pressures might hamper dispersal. Results: We found widespread suitable habitat for both species (bear: 30,000 km2, lynx: 170,000 km2), yet human pressure limits potential range expansions. For brown bears, core habitats between the Cantabrian and Pyrenean populations remained unconnected despite suitable habitat in between. For lynx, we predicted higher range expansion potential, although high human pressures in southern coastal Spain negatively affected expansion potential. Main conclusions: Our results highlight that the recolonization potential of brown bears and lynx in the Iberian Peninsula is likely more constrained by lower permeability of landscapes due to human pressure than by habitat availability, a situation likely emblematic for large carnivores in many parts of the world. More generally, our approach provides a simple tool for conservation planners and managers to identify where range expansion is likely to occur and where proactively managing to allow large carnivores to safely disperse through human-dominated landscapes can contribute to viable large carnivore populations. © 2022 The Authors.

Assessing the degree to which MPAs may be exposed to future novel climatic conditions is, therefore, crucial for informing conservation and management actions aimed at ensuring a resilient and thriving ocean in the years to come. Here, we evaluate the future exposure of 398 threatened and commercially important species to novel and extremely novel climatic conditions within European MPAs. We estimated climate novelty through multivariate analyses considering biologically meaningful distribution drivers of temperature, oxygen, pH, and primary productivity from present-day to the end of the 21st-century conditions under contrasting shared socioeconomic pathways (SSP) scenarios—low emission scenario (SSP1–1.9) and high emission scenario (SSP5–8.5). Our findings suggest that, under SSP1–1.9, ~6.5% of species and 0.5% of European MPAs will be at risk due to future novel conditions. In contrast, under SSP5–8.5, 87% of MPAs and 80% of species are projected to be at risk. Notably, up to 100% of species currently located in the MPAs of enclosed and semi-enclosed seas like the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea are projected to be exposed to novel or even extremely novel conditions. Virtually all species in most of those regions will be at risk, suggesting that even new MPAs might not be able to adequately protect them. Comparatively, the Norwegian Sea, North-East Atlantic, and western parts of the Mediterranean and North Seas are expected to be less impacted even under the high emission scenario. Overall, our study advances the understanding of the potential impacts of future climate change scenarios on threatened and commercially important marine species in European MPAs and reinforces the urgent need to meet the Paris Agreement. Our results suggest that existing approaches to marine governance in Europe may be insufficient for ensuring the success of MPAs in light of future impacts and that novel anticipatory forms of governance are needed. © The Author(s) 2024.",,,,1,3,,NPJ Ocean. sustain.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Nature,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

AEROS features a miniaturized, high-resolution Hyperspectral Imager (HSI), a 5MP RGB camera, and a Software Defined Radio (SDR) to interface with Argos, a globally distributed system of remote platforms that collect and relay oceanographic and meteorological data. These sensors will facilitate the advancement of Portuguese scientific and technological knowledge, and international space industry partnerships, with data processed and aggregated for end-users in a new web-based Data Analysis Center (DAC). The HSI has 150 spectrally contiguous bands covering visible to near-infrared (470 nm - 900 nm) with 10 nm bandwidth (full width at half maximum). The HSI collects ocean color data to support studies of oceanographic characteristics (e.g. primary productivity, mesoscale ocean fronts, and eddies) known to influence the spatio-temporal distribution and movement behavior of marine organisms. To inform performance estimates for the HSI, radiometric analyses were conducted to characterize band sensitivity given varying atmospheric and target conditions. Simulated HSI images were generated to assess suitability for scientific purposes through interpolation of spectral information from Sentinel-2 imagery combined with the AEROS's sensor spectral responses (real calibrated data) and mission-specific parameters. Usage of an SDR expands AEROS's operational and communication range and allows for remote reconfiguration. The SDR receives, demodulates, and retransmits short duration messages (401.650 MHz + 30kHz), from Argos sources including tagged marine organisms, vessels, autonomous vehicles, subsurface floats, and buoys. This allows AEROS to retransmit messages from Argos platforms to ground and processing stations that compute platform locations using Doppler effect measurements. The future DAC will collect, store, process, and analyze acquired data, taking advantage of its ability to disseminate data across the stakeholders and the scientific network. Correlation of animal-borne Argos platform locations and oceanographic data will advance fisheries management, ecosystem-based management, monitoring of marine protected areas, and bio-oceanographic research in the face of a rapidly changing environment. For example, correlation of oceanographic data collected by the HSI, geolocated with supplementary images from the RGB camera and fish locations, will provide researchers with near real-time estimates of essential oceanographic variables within areas selected by species of interest (e.g., sharks, rays, and tuna). This is essential for determining how keystone species, or those vulnerable to overexploitation, interact with their environment. Other relevant applications include monitoring sediment transport, erosion, pollution, and human activities. Copyright © 2022 by Universiade dos Açores.

The identification of conservation units below the species level can be a helpful tool in this regard. In Canada, such conservation units are referred to as Designatable Units (DUs) which are required to be both discrete and significant. Significance criteria are related to the evolutionary significance of species, or populations below the species level. Evaluating evolutionary significance often concerns adaptive differentiation, which can be difficult to demonstrate empirically, and challenging to establish for wide-ranging species. Such species are often genetically panmictic across their range, and, as a result, lumped into a single or few DUs, even though they may have unique population histories or evolutionary lineages. Here, we use Approximate Bayesian Computation to differentiate between hypotheses of contemporary versus historic phylogenetic histories, and a candidate gene approach using coding trinucleotide repeat markers within functional genes to assess the potential for local adaptation of insular and peripheral populations of Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis). We demonstrate that these populations have evolutionary histories consistent with divergence following the last glacial maximum, and show patterns at cTNR loci that suggest the potential for adaptive divergence as well. We demonstrate how, in concert with previously published evidence of genetic discreteness, our results suggest at least four DUs for Canada lynx: lynx (1) north and (2) south of the St. Lawrence River on mainland Canada, and lynx on the islands of (3) Newfoundland and (4) Cape Breton. © 2019 The Authors",,,,,20,,Glob.

It is well known that their management efectiveness depends on a better understanding of the social framework in which they are established. Besides, it is one of the principal tools for the conservation in Brazil and the most representative category in terms of area covering. Nowadays, there are several methodologies for evaluating and assessing the Management Efectiveness; however, there are limitations to the use of these methods applied to APAs, since it is a speciic UC of the National System of Conservation Units and does not correspond directly with the categories of the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Thus, this work focuses on developing a suitable method to evaluating the management efectiveness of APAs. In this way, the Rapid Assessment and Prioritization of Protected Area Management (RAPPAM) with another 11 methodologies were adapted. As the RAPPAM methodology is designed to evaluate forest CUs, adaptive modiications were made to suit both a single area and APAs with marine and continental areas. The new methodology was tested by applying the questionnaire to a team from the APA of the Baleia Franca (APABF), located on the southern coast of Santa Catarina state. The results show that APABF has a management efectiveness of 49.4%, therefore, minimally satisfactory. This indicates that the APABF is not reaching the conservation goals and is highly vulnerable.

Monitoring the survival and habitat use of packs reintroduced into protected areas (PAs) is an essential part of adaptive management and improving the health and, ultimately, the survival of the metapopulation. Our study describes the territoriality and habitat selection of a pack of wild dogs reintroduced into Manyoni Private Game Reserve (219 km2) in northern KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Despite being introduced into a small PA, the pack only utilized half their available space (121 km2) and avoided the central areas of the reserve. Post hoc analysis of African lion (Panthera leo) localities suggested competitive avoidance was a strong factor in shaping the habitat usage of the pack; however, further research is required. Habitat selection also varied seasonally and with denning. Ultimately, we showed that spatio-temporal analyses can help identify high-risk areas within wild dog territories, such as hotspots of activity along fencelines. These analyses can then be used to increase targeted management of these areas, such as improving the maintenance of well-used fencelines, which is an important consideration for the sustained success of the metapopulation across small PAs. © 2021 Southern African Wildlife Management Association.

In New Caledonia, the Aboré reef marine reserve harbours more than 500 fish species, and has been subjected to changes in protection status since 1988. The present study investigates the impact of these changes on a wide subset of species (213), based on underwater visual counts collected before the opening and after the closure to fishing of this marine protected area (MPA). We analysed the spatial and temporal variability in fish assemblage attributable to protection status, explicitly considering habitat. To understand the successive responses of fish assemblage to fishing and protection, the assessment models included four criteria defining species groups that partition the fish assemblage: trophic regime, adult size, mobility, and interest for fishing. We could therefore identify the negative impact of opening the MPA to fishing on piscivores and highly mobile species. Surprisingly, target species were not affected more than non-target species. Model results were used to identify species groups that respond to fishing and protection. These results utilize fisheries-related criteria to provide new insight into the response of fish assemblages to protection from the perspective of MPA monitoring. © 2009 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.

Harvested marine seafood species now exceed 100 million t y(-1) and provide about 6% of all protein and 17% of animal protein consumed by humans. These resources include representatives from about nine biologically diverse groups of plants and animals. Fish account for most of the world""s marine catches, of which only 40 species are taken in abundance. Highest primary productivity and the richest fisheries are found within Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZ). This narrow strip (200 nautical mile/370 km wide) is not only the site of coastal ""food factories"" but also the area associated with heaviest perturbation to the marine environment. Structural redundancy is evident in marine ecosystems, in that many species are interchangeable in the way they characterise assemblage composition. While there is probably functional redundancy within groups, the effects of species loss on ecosystem performance cannot be easily predicted. In particular, the degree to which biodiversity per se is needed for ecosystem services, including seafood/fishery production, is poorly understood. Many human activities, including unsustainable fishing and mariculture, lead to erosion of marine biodiversity. This can undermine the biophysical cornerstones of fisheries and have other undesirable environmental side effects. Of direct concern are ""species effects"", in particular the removal of target and non-target fishery species, as well as conservationally important fauna. Equally disrupting but less immediate are ""ecosystem effects"", such as fishing down the food web, following a shift from harvested species of high to low trophic level. Physical and biological disturbances from trawl nets and dynamite fishing on coral reefs can also severely impact ecosystem structure and function. ""Broadscale"" biological and social effects brought about by fishing carry even more far-reaching consequences. For example, fishing itself can change the age at which sexual maturity is reached, thus affecting the reproductive status of the stock. Hence, fishing may be regarded as a mediator of evolution. Social impacts include conflicts over fish prices and policies arising from heavy fishing and inadequate institutional structures. Measures to increase the sustainability of catches and of biodiversity need to be much more tightly coupled. Promising approaches include use of bio-economic indicators and fully protected marine areas. High- and local-level governance options are also examined. Use of expert systems incorporating ""fuzzy logic"" are providing useful environmental insights in the ASEAN countries and other parts of the world, and have applications in fishery management and biodiversity conservation.",,579-587,,,1,,ScientificWorldJournal,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,alga; Algae; animal; Animals; biodiversity; Biodiversity; classification; ecology; Ecology; economics; fish; Fisheries; Fishes; food chain; Food Chain; food industry; human; Humans; invertebrate; Invertebrates; mammal; Mammals; MLCS; MLOWN; Oceans and Seas; reptile; Reptiles; review; sea; statistics,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We evaluated the efficacy of salmon management by Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) over the past 55 years in two key areas: (i) the achievement of internally generated target escapement levels and (ii) escapement monitoring. We show that less than 4% of monitored streams (n = 7 of 215), which represent a small fraction of all salmon-bearing waterways (n = 2592), have consistently met escapement targets since 1950. During this same period, the number of streams monitored by DFO has simultaneously decreased. Further, current monitoring efforts fall short of encompassing the range of salmon diversity identified within recently designated conservation units. Importantly, we found that this erosion of monitoring effort has been biased towards dropping smaller runs that failed to meet target escapements in the previous decade. We suggest that such increasingly selective monitoring is presenting a progressively more biased evaluation of population health. In addition to fostering a ""shifting baseline"" syndrome, we conclude that these changes to monitoring can not provide data required for precautionary harvest management under the high exploitation levels that these runs experience. © 2008 NRC.",,2712-2718,,12,65,,Can.

To understand the relationship between species richness and landscape, a three-step approach was followed: first, landscape spatial heterogeneity was measured by classifying landscape types according to their attributes (i.e., environmental, soil and topographic variables). Second, several diversity standard indices were used to explore biological diversity and to select the best one explaining the relationship between landscape heterogeneity and plant species richness, for this study area. Third, from the obtained results it was possible to calculate biodiversity values on the basis of landscape heterogeneity. The results indicate that it is possible to predict more than 61% of species richness through an indicator of landscape heterogeneity (H'; Shannon-Weaver diversity index). This procedure may be useful in terms of land use, conservation, and management of protected areas, mainly in areas with high biodiversity but with limited biological data, since it allows to obtain an approximation of the spatial distribution of species richness, even with scarce biological information. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,171-178,,,40,,Appl.

Currently there is a severe lack of information about the protection effects of soft-substrate ecosystems. While many different methods have been established for the monitoring of hard-substrate ecosystems, most of these minimally invasive methods prove ineffective for soft- bottom habitats. Information and quantification of the impact of monitoring methods is needed to provide decision makers with the necessary knowledge to choose appropriate and feasible monitoring methods. In this study we quantify the impact of experimental trammel net fishing as a monitoring method of the soft-substrate demersal fish community using the Arrábida MPA (Portugal) as a case study. Over the 14 biannual sampling campaigns (between 2010 and 2019) 21,873 individuals and 5.61 tonnes of fish were caught. The gear is highly effective with an average catch per unit effort higher than reported for commercial fisheries in adjacent areas. When excluding the pelagic species, mortality rates are 41.2% and 30.4% in numbers and biomass, respectively. Most of the dead individuals belong to small, non-protected species with relatively little commercial value while MPA conservation target groups such as Soleidae and Rajidae have high survival rates. Due to its low size- and species-selectivity and the high survival rate of protected valuable species, the trammel net experimental fishing proved to be an effective monitoring method for soft-substrate demersal fish communities. Given their relatively low impact on the local ecosystem experimental trammel nets are a good alternative for areas where non-extractive methods are not effective. Nevertheless, quantification of the impact of other monitoring methods is necessary to enable the determination of the methods with the lowest mortality and impact for future soft-substrate MPA monitoring. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,120,,Ecol.

In this context, community-level models represent a powerful tool that can be used to predict spatial variation in phylogenetic composition. If lineages composition and habitat loss present a non-random spatial pattern within a region, we can expect that some lineages are more threatened by habitat loss than others. To test this hypothesis we combined multivariate analysis and a modelling approach to predict the phylogenetic composition of angiosperm tree/shrub communities in Rio de Janeiro State, southeastern Brazil, which is regarded as a plant endemism center within the Brazilian Atlantic forest biome. Then we correlated the resulting models with maps of vegetation cover and protected areas, to identify lineages subjected to higher habitat loss and clades that receive less protection. We found that angiosperm tree/shrub lineages are highly structured across distinct vegetation types and that a gradient of deforestation and land protection parallels the phylogenetic gradient formed by the distinct vegetation types. Consequently, some vegetation types and its associated angiosperm lineages are much more threatened by habitat loss and are less protected than others. Specifically, Ericales (asterids), Caryophyllales and Santalales are the most threatened clades in this region, along with their preferred habitats, seasonal forests and coastal white-sand forests (restingas). Protecting and restoring these dry habitats is critical for the conservation of tree and shrub phylogenetic diversity in the Brazilian Atlantic forest. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,546,,For. Ecol.

We aimed to evaluate changes of species richness and cover, floristic composition and ecological functional guilds among different dune habitats 2 years after the boardwalks had been established, highlighting those habitats mainly affected by these changes. In a Special Protection Area of Molise region (Italy), we sampled 53 square plots before the installation of five wooden boardwalks (control plots) and 57 plots after the boardwalks had been set up (testing plot), across the whole dune system ranging from the upper beach to the pine forest. We compared species richness through rarefaction curves, considering two plant functional groups: focal species (characteristic and diagnostic) and ruderal/exotic species. We finally compared florist composition and cover changes between time intervals, dune habitats and functional groups. In all habitats the total plant richness of testing plots was higher than in the control plots. In beach and mobile dunes habitat focal species drive the increase in both species’ richness and cover. Dune grasslands proved to be the most affected by the presence of ruderal and exotic species, while the more stable fixed dunes habitat was less affected by species changes. Only 2 years after the boardwalks having been set up, we have found a rapid recovery since human trampling was limited. The use of boardwalks could be an effective tool for reducing negative impact of bathing tourism on coastal dunes and requires little and inexpensive maintenance. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V. part of Springer Nature.",,,,1,25,,J.

In Italy, recent assessments have highlighted the insufficient state of conservation of these habitats as defined by the EU Habitats Directive. The effects of predicted climate change could have dramatic consequences for coastal environments in the near future. An assessment of the efficacy of protection measures under climate change is thus a priority. Here, we have developed environmental envelope models for the most widespread dune habitats in Italy, following two complementary approaches: an ""indirect"" plant-species-based one and a simple ""direct"" one. We analyzed how habitats distribution will be altered under the effects of two climate change scenarios and evaluated if the current Italian network of protected areas will be effective in the future after distribution shifts. While modeling dune habitats with the ""direct"" approach was unsatisfactory, ""indirect"" models had a good predictive performance, highlighting the importance of using species' responses to climate change for modeling these habitats. The results showed that habitats closer to the sea may even increase their geographical distribution in the near future. The transition dune habitat is projected to remain stable, although mobile and fixed dune habitats are projected to lose most of their actual geographical distribution, the latter being more sensitive to climate change effects. Gap analysis highlighted that the habitats' distribution is currently adequately covered by protected areas, achieving the conservation target. However, according to predictions, protection level for mobile and fixed dune habitats is predicted to drop drastically under the climate change scenarios which we examined. Our results provide useful insights for setting management priorities and better addressing conservation efforts to preserve these threatened habitats in future. © 2013 Prisco et al.",,,,7,8,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"article; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; climate change; Climate Change; coastal dune; CONSERVATION; DISPERSAL; ecosystem; Ecosystem; GAP ANALYSIS; geographic distribution; habitat; IMPACTS; Italy; Models, Theoretical; NATURA 2000; nonhuman; PATTERNS; plant; Plants; prediction; SAND DUNES; sea; SEA-LEVEL RISE; Spatio-Temporal Analysis; species conservation; species distribution; SPECIES DISTRIBUTION MODELS; species identification; zonation",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We used camera traps to monitor human activity and terrestrial mammals in Golden Ears Provincial Park and the adjacent University of British Columbia Malcolm Knapp Research Forest near Vancouver, Canada, with the objective of discerning relative effects of various forms of recreation on cougars (Puma concolor), black bears (Ursus americanus), black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus), snowshoe hares (Lepus americanus), coyotes (Canis latrans), and bobcats (Lynx rufus). Additionally, public closures of the study area associated with the COVD-19 pandemic offered an unprecedented period of human-exclusion through which to explore these effects. Using Bayesian generalized mixed-effects models, we detected negative effects of hikers (mean posterior estimate = ?0.58, 95% credible interval [CI] ?1.09 to ?0.12) on weekly bobcat habitat use and negative effects of motorized vehicles (estimate = ?0.28, 95% CI ?0.61 to ?0.05) on weekly black bear habitat use.

A significant portion of it represents well-formed sandy beaches and dune fields, falling under the protection of the European ecological network NATURA 2000. The coastal sector of the Lower Kamchia Depression hosts the longest beach-dune system on the Bulgarian Black Sea coast called Kamchia-Shkorpilovtsi beach. The main task of the project ""Mapping and monitoring of depositional areas along the Northern Bulgarian Black Sea coast using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles"" is to compile an integrated geodatabase by geodetic measurements, seasonal monitoring remote sensing, and field reconnaissance surveys. The lack of shore protection facilities and the weak anthropogenic pressure on the beach is an excellent opportunity for high-resolution mapping of the natural beach and dune landforms. For the first time, based on high-resolution data from UAV, an analysis of the erosion-accumulative processes and the change of the shoreline between Cape Paletsa and Cape Karaburun was made. Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) was used for estimating short-term and long-term rates of shoreline changes (erosion or accretion). For the time period of 1983-2021, using the Linear Regression Rate (LRR) indicator, an average accretion rate of +0.05 m/y was reported for Kamchia-Shkorpilovtsi beach. From a geological and biological scientific point of view, the morphological changes around the mouths of the Kamchia and Fandakliyska rivers and their influence on the brackish ichthyofauna are of interest. By a combination of data from a drone and a single-beam echo sounder, an integrated surface model of the Fandakliyska River estuary was generated, which allowed a quantitative assessment of the morphological changes after the winter hydrological phenomena in the period November 2020 - May 2021. The main goal of the paper is to present a multidisciplinary approach to the study of highly dynamic coastal landforms, the results of which would benefit local authorities in drawing up management plans for the Bulgarian Black Sea coast. © 2021 International Multidisciplinary Scientific Geoconference.

Such a situation presented itself in our attempt to develop waterfowl distribution models as part of a multi-disciplinary team targeting the control of the highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza virus in China. Methods: Faced with limited data, we built species distribution models using a habitat suitability approach for China's breeding and non-breeding (hereafter, wintering) waterfowl. An extensive review of the literature was used to determine model parameters for habitat modeling. Habitat relationships were implemented in GIS using land cover covariates. Wintering models were validated using waterfowl census data, while breeding models, though developed for many species, were only validated for the one species with sufficient telemetry data available. Results: We developed suitability models for 42 waterfowl species (30 breeding and 39 wintering) at 1km resolution for the extent of China, along with cumulative and genus level species richness maps. Breeding season models showed highest waterfowl suitability in wetlands of the high-elevation west-central plateau and northeastern China. Wintering waterfowl suitability was highest in the lowland regions of southeastern China. Validation measures indicated strong performance in predicting species presence. Comparing our model outputs to China's protected areas indicated that breeding habitat was generally better covered than wintering habitat, and identified locations for which additional research and protection should be prioritized. Conclusions: These suitability models are the first available for many of China's waterfowl species, and have direct utility to conservation and habitat planning and prioritizing management of critically important areas, providing an example of how this approach may aid others faced with the challenge of addressing conservation issues with little data to inform decision making. © 2018 The Author(s).",,,,1,9,,Avian Res.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: BioMed Central Ltd.,,,,Anatidae; Avian influenza; China; H5N1; Habitat suitability; Spatial analysis; Species distribution models; Waterfowl,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Capturing ecological processes in MPA network planning has received increased attention in recent years. High-resolution seafloor maps, which show patterns in seafloor bio-physical characteristics, can support our understanding of ecological processes. In part, owing to a global lack of high-resolution seafloor maps, studies that aim to integrate seascape spatial pattern and conservation prioritization often focus on shallow biogenic habitats with less attention paid to deeper benthic seascapes (benthoscapes) mapped using acoustic techniques. Acoustic seafloor mapping strategies yield the spatial information required to extend conservation prioritization research into these environments, making incorporating seafloor ecological processes into conservation prioritization increasingly achievable. Here, a new method is proposed and tested that combines benthoscape mapping, landscape ecology metrics and a conservation decision support tool to prioritize areas with structural and potential connectivity value in MPA placement. Using a case study in eastern Canada, benthoscape composition and configuration were quantified using spatial pattern metrics and integrated into Marxan. Results illustrate how large patches of seafloor habitat in close proximity to neighbouring patches can be preferentially selected when benthoscape configuration is considered. The flexibility of the method for including relevant spatial pattern metrics or species-specific movement data is discussed to illustrate how benthic habitat maps can improve existing conservation planning methods and complement existing and future work to support marine biodiversity conservation. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,1613-1625,,8,30,,Aquatic Conserv.

However, biotic responses to Partially Protected Areas (PPAs) are varied, and the effectiveness of this approach in relation to management objectives can be ambiguous. Few studies have compared different levels of partial protection to provide insight into this issue. Using remote underwater video methods (stereo baited video, drop-camera) we compared fish and invertebrate assemblages between two PPA types with differing levels of protection (Habitat Protection - HP; and General Use - GU) on unconsolidated substrata in the subtropical Solitary Islands Marine Park, Australia. While both Management Types are fished, trawling is only allowed in GU. Despite high levels of spatial variation across the scales of investigation, we found fish and invertebrate assemblages differed significantly between the two Management Types. The abundance of two fish taxa and low-mobility and sessile benthic macro-invertebrates, and the mean size of the commercially targeted bluespotted flathead Platycephalus caeruleopunctatus, were each significantly greater in the un-trawled HP. Contrary to expectations, abundance of a conspicuous habitat former (pennatulacean seapens) and elasmobranchs did not differ significantly between Management Types. While unconsolidated sedimentary habitats are more homogenous than reef, our study revealed high assemblage diversity at a range of scales. Although assemblages and some individual taxa benefitted from a higher level of partial protection, the broader merit of this management approach remains unclear. Globally, PPA benefits likely depend on social, regulatory, environmental, and site-specific ecological factors. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,183,,Ocean Coast.

Much of this research has targeted habitat-forming sessile invertebrates and charismatic megafauna, but smaller macrofauna and infauna may also be important because of their roles in ecosystem functions. In this study we characterised the biodiversity of polychaetes collected from four marine surveys to the Oceanic Shoals AMP between 2009 and 2012 from which sediment samples were elutriated (500 ?m) to separate macrofauna. We used this species-level inventory to examine several questions related to marine management, namely: (1) do polychaete assemblages vary among surveys; (2) can environmental variables or geomorphology explain differences in community structure; and (3) how do ecological patterns change according to taxonomic resolution (species, family) and functional group (feeding, habitat, mobility)? A total of 2561 individual polychaetes were collected from 266 samples, representing 368 species and 43 families, including new species and genera, as well as new family records for Australia (Iospilidae, Lacydoniidae). Polychaete species assemblages and functional groups showed variation among the surveys, but this was not observed at the family level. Species and family assemblages were weakly related to environmental factors, but functional groups showed stronger relationships. Plains and banks each supported distinct polychaete assemblages, although the latter showed temporal variation. The results provide baseline biodiversity and ecological data about polychaetes on the northern Australian shelf, and these are discussed in relation to marine management strategies. Notably, intersurvey and environmental patterns differ from those of larger sessile fauna (sponges) collected on the same surveys, highlighting the need to consider small macrofauna in monitoring programs of marine protected areas. © 2019 CSIRO.",,307-321,,3,70,,Mar.

The lack of quantitative data is explained by the complexity of hard-to-access fluviallake systems, low water transparency, and the elusive behavior of manatees. Side-scan sonar is a promissory tool to detect and count manatees in fluvial systems. The Pantanos de Centla Biosphere Reserve (PCBR), in the coastal plain of Tabasco (Mexico), could play a key role in the regional conservation of manatees, but it is under constant pressure, especially from the oil and gas industry, and it is important to generate quantitative data for this area. The objective of this study was to quantify the relative abundance of manatees at 4 selected sites within PCBR and at 2 reference sites outside the reserve using side-scan sonar, as a basis for the long-term monitoring of the species and to determine the importance of the reserve for regional manatee conservation. We conducted 5 to 7 boat surveys on 10-km line transects along selected water courses and recorded 63 manatee sightings. Manatees occurred at all sampling sites and abundance increased upriver. The site with the highest mean abundance (5.17 ± 1.9 manatees/10 km) was located at the southeastern end of PCBR. There was statistical difference among sites. The southeastern portion of Tabasco is a key region for manatee conservation and management in Mexico. PCBR is a key regional feature but it is necessary to define protection strategies within and beyond its southern limits. © 2016, Universidad Autonoma de Baja California.

The peculiar hydrographic conditions that characterize these systems, including the high level of organic matter accumulation and transport, can lead to intense resuspension that can influence the food available to the benthos. The Cape Canyon is the largest South African canyon located off the western margin of the country. It has a unique structure that connects the coastline to deep-sea environments, and it is also extremely productive being under the influence of upwelling. Here we aim to characterize the role of hydrography in influencing the food availability to the benthos, comparing stations within the Cape Canyon and from adjacent areas. Samples were collected in March 2017 and data were acquired to describe the physical environment (temperature, salinity, oxygen) in relation to the benthic invertebrate specimens used for stable isotope analyses. The ?15N of suspended particulate matter (SPM) did not vary between canyon and non-canyon regions, but it increased with depth, most likely as the result of particle bacterial remineralization. In contrast, the ?13CSPM changed as a function of canyon. Such effects were only partially reflected in the ?15N and ?13C of the trophic groups identified, which generally did not vary between canyon and non-canyon stations. This information increases our understanding of the ecological function of the benthos in and around the Cape Canyon, which is essential for the ongoing marine spatial planning efforts. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,244,,J.

Only 8 MPAs contained considerable mesophotic areas, with stronger MHWs mainly occurring in shallower MPAs, and MMEs mostly affecting coralligenous assemblages. Even with only a 10% response rate, the LEK approach provided useful information on the resilience of certain species, allowing us to suggest that the presence of nearby mesophotic areas can help shallower habitats facing climate change, thus making the “deep refugia” hypothesis, usually related to tropical habitats, applicable also for the Mediterranean Sea. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,201,,Mar.

However, evidence suggests that despite the growing number and coverage of PAs worldwide, biodiversity trends continue to deteriorate, and human pressure increases outside and inside PAs. While many studies have focused on the effectiveness of PAs in maintaining ecological features, less attention has been given to the threat reduction potential of PAs, despite threats being one of the main factors leading to the need to conserve biodiversity. It is therefore essential to understand PAs' role in addressing threats. In this paper, we describe the protocol for conducting a systematic review to explore and review the evidence surrounding the effectiveness of PAs as an intervention to reduce threats to biodiversity. We will examine the role of PAs in addressing several types of threats. Thus, our primary research question is: How effective are protected areas for reducing threats to biodiversity? Methods: This protocol follows the Collaboration for Environmental Evidence guidelines for evidence synthesis and complies with the ROSES (Reporting Standards for Systematic Evidence Synthesis) reporting framework. We will use a comprehensive search, covering databases such as Web of Science—core collection and Scopus and organizational websites to capture relevant grey literature. Our search terms and strategies aim to find studies assessing change of threats given in PAs at any scale and ecosystem type capturing literature in English. Independent reviewers will screen search results at the title—abstract, and full text levels. In order to evaluate the relevance of the evidence, we will use the Collaboration for Environmental Evidence Critical Appraisal Tool. The results will be presented as a narrative synthesis supported by quantitative data. Additionally, a meta-analysis, if possible, will be performed. © 2023, Collaboration for Environmental Evidence and BioMed Central Ltd.",,,,1,12,,Environ.

Wind farms have both positive and negative effects on the marine environment. Negative effects include bird collisions, underwater sounds and electromagnetic fields, whilst positive effects constitute functioning as artificial reef and acting as no-take zones for fish, with possible spill-over effects. This paper presents a spatially explicit framework to analyze effects of wind farms on the marine environment and aims to evaluate how wind farms can contribute to protection of the marine environment through strategic and economically viable location choices. The functioning and the applicability of the model are demonstrated in a numerical example for the Dutch exclusive economic zone. We find that the careful spatial planning of wind farms is a key factor for profitability and environmental protection, and that, if carefully planned, the environment can benefit from offshore wind farms. © 2009 Elsevier B.V.

Their general approval is demonstrated by the fact that the parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity have set the target that 10 per cent of the world’s oceans should be protected (Convention on Biological Diversity, 2010), even though currently no more than approximately 1 percent are protected (Spalding et al., 2010). In the literature the effectiveness and the possibilities of MPAs are debated. Some authors seem to consider MPAs as a panacea (e.g., Bohnsack, 1993); others are more sceptical about the possibilities (e.g., Hannesson, 1998; Anderson, 2002). This divergence is partly caused by the different meanings that people attach to ‘MPA’, especially to the term ‘protected’ (Jones, 2001). If ‘protected’ only means ‘protected from fishing’ and the goal is to protect or improve fisheries, then MPAs are no-take zones. If they are to be protected from all human uses, then the term ‘marine reserve’ might be more appropriate. Sometimes ‘protected’ is interpreted to mean ‘protected from some uses but not from others’; in that case MPAs are essentially a zoning tool. In this chapter we will consider MPAs as areas that are protected from extractive uses and affect multiple ecosystem services, in our case food production (fisheries) and cultural and option use services (species protection). © Paulo A.L.D.

Plans to increase renewable energy production by establishing offshore wind farms (OWFs) are likely to coincide with existing and planned marine protected areas (MPAs), with obvious incompatibilities relating to conservation goals. Both will restrict fishing activities to varying degrees, thus a framework is needed to assess possible trade-offs to differing stakeholders and ecosystem health. Using a spatially-explicit trophic model, ecosystem response to different types of spatial closures to fisheries was evaluated using a variety of indicators relating to ecosystem health and fisheries productivity in the southern part of the North Sea. Additionally, hypothetical MPAs designated with specific ecological objectives in mind were tested. Scenario outcomes suggest that closures may need to be accompanied with additional fisheries management measures to avoid unintended negative impacts outside the closed areas. Furthermore, size and placement of spatial closures are important factors influencing overall benefits and losses in terms of ecological health and fisheries yield. One particular hypothetical large-scale closure, designed with the goal of protecting areas with high biodiversity, performed better in terms of indicators and trade-offs than the more fragmented, currently planned and existing closures. Although model outcomes have to be treated with care, the spatially-explicit food web modeling approach will likely aid in providing a more holistic evaluation of trade-offs between conservation objectives and fishing activities, which should contribute to a more target-oriented framework for the evaluation of closed areas. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,152,,Mar.

The first mandatory stage of the reserve's work is an all-taxa biodiversity inventory. The last list of the vascular plants of the Ubsunur Basin Biosphere Reserve compiled in 2009 includes 1263 species, but it should be noted that the reserve's territory has been insufficiently studied. This is confirmed by the results of special floristic studies of two (Mongun Taiga and Aryskannyg) of nine reserve clusters, which revealed some new species for the reserve's territory and allowed to precise the distribution of plants within individual sites. The aim of this research was a vascular flora inventory of the Tsugeer-Els cluster. Tsugeer-Els sands are located in the northeastern part of the Ubsunur Basin on the left bank of the Tes-Khem River between 49°57'-50°11'N and 95°07'-95°28'E. They are an almost isolated branch of the large Altan-Els sand massif, which is located on the adjacent territory of Mongolia. The protected area of the cluster includes the freshwater Tore-Khol Lake, the sands of Eder-Elezin, rocky outcrops and the left bank of the Tes- Khem River Valley. Fieldwork was carried out in June 2019. The routes covered the sand dunes in the principal part of the cluster, the coastal zones of Tore-Khol Lake, vegetative complexes of moist depressions, rocky outcropes, drying floodplain lakes with halophytic vegetation, areas with anthropogenic disturbance (roads, pastures, lake recreational areas), and the Tes-Khem River floodplain. During the routes, we compiled floristic lists, carried out visual observations of ecotopological and phytocenotic features of the species, noted species abundance, and sampled herbarium specimens in some cases. All herbarium specimens cited in this article were deposited in the P.N. Krylov Herbarium of Tomsk State University (TK). 18 species of vascular plants were added to flora of the Tsugeer-Els cluster of the Ubsunur Basin Reserve. Of these, 4 species are also new for the Erzinsky natural area of Tuva: Alyssum turkestanicum var. desertorum (Stapf) Botsch., Carex vesicaria L., Isatis costata C.A. Mey., Silene borysthenica (Gruner) Walters. Androsace lehmanniana Spreng. is also new for the Ubsunur desert steppe subregion. 13 species were added to the species list of the Tsugeer-Els cluster: Anemone sylvestris L., Angelica tenuifolia (Pall. ex Spreng.) Pimenov, Eleocharis uniglumis (Link) Schult., Equisetum arvense L., Equisetum palustre L., Gentiana riparia Kar. & Kir., Poa argunensis Roshev., Polygala hybrida DC., Potentilla pensylvanica L., Pyrola rotundifolia L., Scorzonera radiata Fisch. ex Ledeb., Thesium repens Ledeb., Trifolium lupinaster L. We also noted that Tephroseris palustris was mistakenly omitted in the reserve flora species list for the Tsugeer-Els cluster. Most of the new species were found in hard-to-reach floodplain habitats in the Tes-Khem River Valley. The finding of Alyssum turkestanicum var. desertorum, Isatis costata, Silene borysthenica in the coastal zone of Tore-Khol Lake, in our opinion, is the result of the increase in the recreational load recently. © 2020 Tomsk State University.

Several rare species of plants and invertebrates have declined dramatically in abundance, and in some areas lost entirely. Of the ten dune habitats and species recognized as being features of European importance within the Welsh Natura 2000 sites, nine are currently in Unfavourable condition on at least one site. The decline in active aeolian processes has also reduced the geomorphological interest of the sites, several of which were designated as Geological Conservation Review sites principally on the basis of their physical processes and landforms. The decline in bare sand area between the 1940-50s and 2009 has been quantified at twelve Welsh dune sites using aerial photography and GIS. The decline ranged from 41 % at Gronant Dunes and Talacre Warren to 97 % at Kenfig Burrows, with an average of 81 %. Morfa Dyffryn had the highest remaining percentage of bare sand in 2009 (20 %), with 30-40 % coverage of mobile dune and pioneer communities, while seven sites had < 5 % bare sand. Dune stabilization over the past 60 years has been favoured by a number of factors, including less windy conditions, higher temperatures and longer growing season, increased atmospheric nitrogen deposition, a reduction in grazing intensity, and dune management policies aimed at controlling mobile sand. Climate change projections suggest that, in the next 50 to 100 years, Wales and adjoining areas are likely to experience higher temperatures and higher rainfall, especially in winter, and a further slight reduction in wind speeds. Without intervention, dune and dune slack habitats are likely to be increasingly replaced by fixed dune grassland and scrub, resulting in the extinction of rare plants, invertebrates and other species which require open, mobile conditions. Several intervention options exist, ranging in scale and potential impact. Increased livestock grazing, re-introduction of rabbits, scrub clearance, turf stripping and the creation of shallow 'scrapes' can be beneficial but will not by themselves create self-sustaining mobile dunes. In order to have any chance of achieving any significant impact, larger-scale intervention measures, involving large-scale vegetation removal and sand-re-profiling, will be required. At least in the short-term, maintenance measures will be required to prevent vegetation re-growth, and the challenge will be to encourage the development of mobile dune features which will be naturally mobile in the medium to longer term. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,27-54,,1,18,,J.

The Yellow Sea Ecoregion comprises 460,000 km2, has a mean water depth of 46 m, and contains abundant biodiversity and biological resources. Due to intensified anthropogenic activities and global climate change, the Yellow Sea Ecoregion is facing severe transboundary threats, which have had strong negative impacts on important habitats and key species of the region. To address this issue, the World Wide Fund for Nature organized Chinese, Japanese, and Korean scientists to prepare an assessment report on the status of biodiversity in the Yellow Sea Ecoregion, in which 23 potential priority areas were identified to promote conservation of the region. Until 2019, China had established 152 marine protected areas covering an area of 80,400 km2 in the Yellow Sea Ecoregion, which aim to protect marine ecosystems and biodiversity. However, several issues with China’s management and construction of the marine protected areas, such as a lack of top-level design, limited management capacity, a lack of financial funding, and poorly balanced spatial development, leave many conservation gaps to be filled to ensure protected areas operate effectively. Therefore, it is of vital importance to improve the designation, management and development of marine protected areas within the Yellow Sea Ecoregion. Methods: In this paper, the research area was the portion of the Yellow Sea Ecoregion identified by World Wide Fund for Nature under China’s jurisdiction. We used a gap analysis to identify important yet unprotected coastal wetland, key marine species, and marine ecosystems of the Yellow Sea Ecoregion. We first identified the important ecological function zones, areas rich in biodiversity, important habitats, and landscape geological relics and mapped their distribution as potential priority areas. Next, we collected information on the distribution of existing marine protected areas. We then used ArcGIS 10.4 to compare the distributions of our identified potential priority areas with the distributions of existing marine protected areas to identify conservation gaps, and proposed new marine protected areas based on the identified gap patches. Results: Based on our analysis, the key conservation gaps of the Yellow Sea Ecoregion were located in the Yellow River estuary; the coastal wetlands in the Liaohe Estuary, Huanghua and Tanggu, the Jiaodong Peninsula, and Jiangsu Province; the Caofeidian seagrass bed; the Zhoushan fishing ground; and the breeding area and migratory route of spotted seal. The Daliao River Estuary and the southern part of Liaohe Estuary wetlands in Yingkou, the Caofeidian seagrass bed, the wetland along the east coast of Huanghua, the Tiaozini wetland, the Yuhe Estuary, and the Weihe Estuary wetland were the relatively larger gap patches. Spotted seal (Phoca largha), Spoon-billed Sandpiper (Eurynorhynchus pygmeus), East Asian Finless Porpoise (Neophocaena asiaeorientalis sunameri) and Common Minke Whales (Balaenoptera acutorostrata) were key species of concern. Conclusions: Our results suggest that new marine protected areas for Spotted Seal and Spoon-billed Sandpiper be established near Dalian along Jiangsu coast. At the same time, a lack of accurate distribution data hinders understanding the protection needs of East Asian Finless Porpoises and Common Minke Whales. To enhance our understanding of their distributions, further research and surveys of East Asian Finless Porpoises and Common Minke Whales are needed to inform the establishment of suitable protected areas and bolster the effectiveness of the marine protected network. We recommend that strengthening the scientific designation and management of marine protected areas, actively integrating resources from all sectors of society to conduct research and assessment, guaranteeing funding sources, promoting sustainable development of marine ecological industry, enhancing capacity building and the degree of stakeholder participation, and applying more creative cooperation approaches are fundamental to ensuring the success of future designation, management, and development of marine protected areas in the Yellow Sea Ecoregion. © 2021, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Within Australia, spatial management of fish assemblages aims to protect habitats and regulate harvest pressure via the use of no-take areas (NTAs), where no extraction is permitted, and partially protected areas (PPAs), where limited fishing is allowed but higher impact activities (e.g. trawling) are prohibited. We used a novel combination of mini-baited remote underwater video (mini-BRUV) systems and in situ microhabitat assessments to assess whether reef fish community structure on shallow (6-9 m) rocky reefs varied with spatial management zone (NTAs versus PPAs), sampling season (autumn, spring) and benthic habitat condition around coastal islands and headlands within the Port Stephens-Great Lakes Marine Park (established in 2007). While fish community composition and the relative abundance of fish species did not differ significantly across spatial management zones, there were significant differences among sampling season, and spatial variation at the site level that was partly explained by geomorphology (island/headland). Notably, there was a strong association between variation in fish community structure and site-level cover of canopy-forming macroalgae among islands and headlands, which transcended management zones. Our study suggests that balancing habitat condition and geomorpho-logical setting (islands, headlands) among management zones is key to the conservation and management of shallow-water reef fish assemblages. In particular, the percent cover of canopy-forming macroalgae may be a key habitat indicator for designing, monitoring and re-balancing spatial management zones. © The authors 2019.

The Olrog's Gull (Larus atlanticus) is a species endemic to the Atlantic coast of southern South America, constituting one of the three threatened gull species listed in the entire American continent. The aim of this study was to assess the exposure to Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) and chlorpyrifos in the Near Threatened Olrog's Gull through the analysis of body feathers sampled at the Mar Chiquita coastal lagoon, the main wintering area of the species in Argentina, controlling for sex and age class. Chlorpyrifos showed the highest concentrations among all contaminants and groups of individuals (XŻ = 263 ng g?1), while among POPs the concentration of organochlorine pesticides was higher than polychlorinated biphenyls and polybrominated diphenyl ethers, likely indicating the current use of these agricultural contaminant in the region. The highest values of total POP concentrations (males XŻ = 280 ng g?1, females XŻ = 301 ng g?1) were found in juvenile gulls, likely as a consequence of the incorporation of pollutants during the breeding season. Subadult and adult birds showed difference between sexes in the concentration of contaminants, with higher levels in males than females. The results highlight the need to include birds of different sex and age classes in order to better understand the variation in pollutants loads. The present study provides relevant information to improve the conservation status of the Olrog's Gull and new insights about the environmental health of the Mar Chiquita coastal lagoon, Argentina, a MAB-UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve. However, there is a continued need for long-term monitoring programs focusing on this threatened species to understand the effects of pollutants on its population. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,272,,Environ.

However, the effectiveness of protected areas that target specific species has been questioned for some time because targeting key species for conservation may impair the integral regional pool of species diversity and phylogenetic and functional diversity are seldom considered. We assessed the efficacy of protected areas in China for the conservation of phylogenetic diversity based on the ranges and phylogenies of 2279 terrestrial vertebrates. Phylogenetic and taxonomic diversity were strongly and positively correlated, and only 12.1–43.8% of priority conservation areas are currently protected. However, the patterns and coverage of phylogenetic diversity were affected when weighted by species richness. These results indicated that in China, protected areas targeting high species richness protected phylogenetic diversity well overall but failed to do so in some regions with more unique or threatened communities (e.g., coastal areas of eastern China, where severely threatened avian communities were less protected). Our results suggest that the current distribution of protected areas could be improved, although most protected areas protect both taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity. © 2017 Society for Conservation Biology",,355-365,,2,32,,Conserv.

Ocean climate change (‘CC’) modelling may become a key decision-support tool for MSP, but traditional modelling analysis and communication challenges prevent their broad uptake. We employed MSP-specific ocean climate modelling analyses to inform a real-life MSP process; addressing how nature conservation and fisheries could be adapted to CC. We found that the currently planned distribution of these activities may become unsustainable during the policy's implementation due to CC, leading to a shortfall in its sustainability and blue growth targets. Significant, climate-driven ecosystem-level shifts in ocean components underpinning designated sites and fishing activity were estimated, reflecting different magnitudes of shifts in benthic versus pelagic, and inshore versus offshore habitats. Supporting adaptation, we then identified: CC refugia (areas where the ecosystem remains within the boundaries of its present state); CC hotspots (where climate drives the ecosystem towards a new state, inconsistent with each sectors’ present use distribution); and for the first time, identified bright spots (areas where oceanographic processes drive range expansion opportunities that may support sustainable growth in the medium term). We thus create the means to: identify where sector-relevant ecosystem change is attributable to CC; incorporate resilient delivery of conservation and sustainable ecosystem management aims into MSP; and to harness opportunities for blue growth where they exist. Capturing CC bright spots alongside refugia within protected areas may present important opportunities to meet sustainability targets while helping support the fishing sector in a changing climate. By capitalizing on the natural distribution of climate resilience within ocean ecosystems, such climate-adaptive spatial management strategies could be seen as nature-based solutions to limit the impact of CC on ocean ecosystems and dependent blue economy sectors, paving the way for climate-smart MSP. © 2021 The Authors.

It aims further to demonstrate that there is no historical tradition of protecting special forests and lands, as a cultural and ethical behaviour pattern rooted in Portuguese society, and nor does Portugal have a significant vocal community of 'visionaries' advocating wildlife protection. This paper also discusses practices embedded in Portuguese cultural tradition, related to coping with nature and the conflict of relations between society and its ancient practices and beliefs towards protected wildlife. It argues that protected areas are always under pressure, in particular from campers, motor sports, invasive introduced species, forest fires and, on the coast, urbanisation and touristic developments.1 It proposes that natural parks in Portugal could be tools for increasing valuation of natural heritage, encouraging more ecological, respectful and responsible attitudes to nature, if participation in the design of protected areas and their management tools were more than a 'top-down' rhetoric. © 2012 The White Horse Press.",,585-611,,4,18,,Environ.

Hiking is becoming an important touristic attraction, but negative impacts may arise on trails. We aim to evaluate plant biodiversity along eight hiking trails located inside Special Areas of Conservation in two islands with different levels of population density and touristic activity (Săo Miguel and Flores). Along each trail, 3 plots of 5 × 5 m were used to evaluate the vegetation at every 500 m. Effects of distance to the trail border, altitude, trail, and island, were evaluated by: (i) diversity measures; (ii) floristic composition (different life forms; different biogeographic/conservation status); and (iii) identifying indicator species. Bayesian models run in WinBUGS and the R package ""Indicspecies"" were used. In total, 111 plant taxa were found, with: (i) highest species richness and diversity in the plots closer to the trail; (ii) highest evenness at the lowest altitude class; (iii) a reduction in the proportion of introduced species with increasing altitude; (iv) a variation in life forms' composition between and within trails (with the altitude); and (v) the presence of indicator species associated to one altitude, one trail, or one island. The results showed a slight impact on vegetation from the presence of the trails, although with no major changes in the community composition. Presently, factors like the type of land use in areas surrounding the trails may have a deeper effect on plant biodiversity than trail use by visitors. © 2014 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,1347-1365,,6,23,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Kluwer Academic Publishers,,,,ADJACENT; Azores; Bayesian analysis; Bayesian models; biodiversity; bioindicator; CORRIDORS; FLORA; floristics; HABITAT; Hiking trails; IMPACTS; Indicator species; NATIONAL-PARK; nature conservation; Plant communities; plant community; Plant diversity; population density; Portugal; protected area; Protected areas; PROTECTED AREAS; RECREATION; Tourism impacts; tourist behavior; VEGETATION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

These islands share an exceptional natural heritage including many marine and terrestrial endemic species. At a regional scale the Iles Eparses are some of the most pristine ecosystems, largely preserved from anthropogenic impacts due to their geographical isolation and a historically very limited human occupation. In this context, TAAF wished that Iles Eparses become unique natural laboratories for earth scientists and environmental process observation - like climate change impacts - but also sustainable biodiversity sanctuaries for which the scientific community should provide baseline ecological data to inform on appropriate conservation tools. An inter-agency research consortium emerged in 2009 to meet this commitment for the Iles Eparses. This program was intended to set a science framework in accordance with France' objectives for Research and Conservation. It enabled between 2009 and 2014 the implementation of 18 cross-disciplinary research projects ranging from geology to ecology and represented by the variety of the proposed articles in this special issue. Altogether research projects have dramatically increased knowledge on the Iles Eparses' ecosystems and have provided the first overview of their diversity, their functions and their dynamics and its determinants. In particular applied research efforts have supplied a significant amount of ecological evidence that is now available to develop optimal conservation strategy to ensure the Iles Eparses' long-term biodiversity value.

The ongoing reductions in monitoring and enforcement during the pandemic have allowed increased opportunities for illegal, unreported, and unregulated activities, particularly for small-scale fisheries2. Even before the pandemic, policymakers and fisheries managers intent on controlling illegal fishing activities established marine protected areas (MPAs) that restrict or prohibit fishing3. Unfortunately, non-compliance with MPAs is often the rule rather than the exception, and less than 10% of the world's MPAs have managed to effectively reduce infringement4. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated these management challenges: a recent review of MPAs worldwide has revealed a general decline in tourism revenue to operate park services during the pandemic, especially revenue needed for supporting personnel to monitor, patrol, and enforce restrictions2. Here, we compile infraction records of illegal fishing activities by both professional (commercial) and amateur (recreational) boats inside and outside of the Tupinambás Ecological Station and the Alcatrazes Wildlife Refuge (Figure 1A), notable for its high reef-fish biomass and diversity in the Southwestern Atlantic5. We show that illegal exploitation has shifted since the onset of the pandemic, targeting larger, higher-value species that contribute disproportionately to the structure and function of reef-fish communities in the region. © 2022 Elsevier Inc.",,R765-R766,,14,32,,Curr.

Their (semi) permanence generates high stakes in what seems like a one-shot game. In this paper, we theoretically and empirically explore a model of short-term area-based conservation that prioritizes adaptive co-management: temporary areas closed to fishing, designed by the fishers they affect, approved by the government, and adapted every 5 years. In this model, no-take zones are adapted through learning and trust-building between fishers and government fisheries scientists. We use integrated social-ecological theory and a case study of a network of such fisheries closures (“fishing refugia”) in northwest Mexico to hypothesize a feedback loop between trust, design, and ecological outcomes. We argue that, with temporary and adaptive area-based management, social and ecological outcomes can be mutually reinforcing as long as initial designs are ecologically “good enough” and supported in the social-ecological context. This type of adaptive management also has the potential to adapt to climate change and other social-ecological changes. This feedback loop also predicts the dangerous possibility that low trust among stakeholders may lead to poor design, lack of ecological benefits, eroding confidence in the tool’s capacity, shrinking size, and even lower likelihood of social-ecological benefits. In our case, however, this did not occur, despite poor ecological design of some areas, likely due to buffering by social network effects and alternative benefits. We discuss both the potential and the danger of temporary area-based conservation measures as a learning tool for adaptive co-management and commoning. © Copyright © 2021 Quintana, Giron-Nava, Urmy, Cramer, Domínguez-Sánchez, Rodríguez-Van Dyck, Aburto-Oropeza, Basurto and Weaver.",,,,,8,,Front.

However, in different marine regions of Colombia, such as the Gulf of Morrosquillo, this knowledge is scarce, requiring a greater sampling effort and constant updating of data. Therefore, this work aims to provide an updated list of the macroalgae in the aforementioned region, based on published and unpublished biological records and recent sampling. Methods: Bibliographic information was compiled from historical records from 1976 to the present and complemented with sampling in one location in the Gulf of Morrosquillo. The taxa were organized and updated based on the most recent nomenclature, and the geographical affinity of the algal Key results: The occurrence of 97 taxa classified in three classes, 15 orders, 32 families and 54 genera. Red algae, with 48 taxa, were the group that contributed the largest number of species, and the phycoflora of the region was of a mixed type according to the Cheney index. Six new annotated and illustrated records were reported for the Gulf: Antithamnionella breviramosa, Centroceras gasparrinii, Bostrychia tenella, Melanothamnus sphaerocarpus, Agardhiella ramosissima and Feldmannia mitchelliae. Conclusions: The inventory of macroalgae in the evaluated region was updated, showing a clearer historical panorama of the sampled areas, which suggests an extraordinary potential in the future discovery of new records that would increase the knowledge about the phycoflora of the Colombian Caribbean, particularly because the records of encrusting red algae, epiphytic and epizoic species are non-existent.",,,,,131,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001223123300001,,,,,,,BAY; biodiversity; BIOSPHERE RESERVE SEAFLOWER; Chlorophyta; CORDOBA; EPIPHYTES; FLORA; GENUS CENTROCERAS CERAMIACEAE; Heterokontophyta; MARINE-ALGAE; review; Rhodophyta; RHODOPHYTA; ROOTS; SEAWEEDS; taxonomy,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The decision to designate, implement and manage marine protected areas (MPAs) is often made ad hoc without clear guiding procedures. This study evaluates the process of establishment and management of MPAs in temperate soft-bottom marine areas, including identification of objectives, site selection, designation, implementation, ecological effectiveness and socio-economic impacts. 2. For the first time, literature about marine conservation strategies in soft-bottom temperate areas is brought together in one 'systems approach', which is visualized in a flow chart including three phases: setting policy objectives, making decisions and evaluating the eventual effects of the MPA. Policy objectives are generally easy to identify and in most cases national policy objectives are driven by international and regional legal obligations. The decision making process is the most complex phase, as the acceptance of MPAs has to be balanced against the human activities that take place in the area. 3. The relation between fisheries and MPA-management appears to be most challenging in soft-bottom temperate marine areas because of conflicting interests and institutional differences. Activities limited in space and not relying directly on ecosystem functions (e.g. offshore energy production and aggregate extraction) are generally easier to manage than fisheries. 4. The conceptual mapping exercise presented here serves as a basis for a systems approach for MPAs and has been tested for the Belgian coastal environment. In the Belgian 'MPA-process', the application of the systems approach proves to be useful in providing insight into the complex interactions of various authorities with scattered jurisdictions. 5. The unified and simplified representation of the various aspects is (1) a useful communication tool for policy makers and managers to inform other sectors and the public at large and (2) a valuable support during the 'MPAprocess' that considerably enhances the prospects for success.© 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd .",,596-608,,5,19,,Aquatic Conserv.

Analysis and interpretation of large physical and geochemistry data sets provides important information on processes occurring at the seafloor in this poorly known area. These processes help us to understand how the seafloor functions to support biodiversity in the region. Abstract Baseline information on habitats is required to manage Australia's northern tropical marine estate. This study aims to develop an improved understanding of seafloor environments of the Timor Sea. Clustering methods were applied to a large data set comprising physical and geochemical variables that describe organic matter (OM) reactivity, quantity and source, and geochemical processes. Arthropoda (infauna) were used to assess different groupings. Clusters based on physical and geochemical data discriminated arthropods better than geomorphic features. Major variations among clusters included grain size and a cross-shelf transition from authigenic-Mn-As enrichments (inner shelf) to authigenic-P enrichment (outer shelf). Groups comprising raised features had the highest reactive OM concentrations (e.g. low chlorin indices and C:N ratios, and high reaction rate coefficients) and benthic algal ?13C signatures. Surface area-normalised OM concentrations higher than continental shelf norms were observed in association with: (i) low ?15N, inferring Trichodesmium input; and (ii) pockmarks, which impart bottom-up controls on seabed chemistry and cause inconsistencies between bulk and pigment OM pools. Low Shannon-Wiener diversity occurred in association with low redox and porewater pH and published evidence for high energy. Highest ?-diversity was observed at euphotic depths. Geochemical data and clustering methods used here provide insight into ecosystem processes that likely influence biodiversity patterns in the region. © CSIRO 2015.",,204-226,,2,12,,Environ.

The Maracană River Basin (MRB) represents this environment, holding various ecosystem services for the component municipalities, protected areas with highly sensitive environments and water demand, and potential for multiple water uses. The proposed aim was to identify areas of degradation and environmental conservation in the MRB using the Blueprint model as support for water resource management. The methodology involved the application of the Blueprint model in the MRB, based on land use and cover information, rainfall, and characterization of the ecological units. The results showed that the MRB basin predominantly exhibits the degradation and restoration/connectivity classes in the Annual Blueprint (ABP) and Dry Blueprint (DBP), respectively. On the other hand, the Rainy Blueprint (RBP) predominantly exhibits Environmental Integrity. Statistical tests showed significant differences between ABP-RBP and DBP-RBP, which can be explained by the fact that on an annual scale of analysis, Blueprint classes are more heterogeneous, with a tendency toward environmental integrity, and intermediate classes in the rainy period; in the dry period, restoration and connectivity and degradation classes predominate. The correlation analysis indicates that natural vegetation cover shows a significant correlation with annual precipitation, rainy and dry quarters. These results provide significant insight into understanding the dynamics of degradation and conservation areas, assisting decision-makers in the environmental planning of the basin. In addition, the climatic component showed a differential response on annual and seasonal scales, acting as a modulating agent of the indicators.

The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework adopted a target to protect at least 30 per cent of the planet’s land and seas by 2030, also known as ‘30x30’. To reach and maintain this ambitious goal, an expanded conservation workforce is indispensable. Despite this, most protected areas are currently critically understaffed. This study examines staffing in shared governance protected areas in Madagascar – a biodiversity hotspot that has significantly expanded its protected area network since 2015. We explore factors that attract and retain protected area workers in order to suggest recommendations for workforce development. We employ a qualitative approach utilising face-to-face interviews and a survey of protected area staff and local communities in Madagascar. We obtained data from 62 individuals across 10 protected areas, under IUCN management categories II, V and VI. Findings indicate that understaffing is a dynamic rather than a static phenomenon. A key motivation for working in the protected area sector is place attachment. Non-monetary work practices including place-based empowerment of community groups and gender-inclusive approaches can improve organisational culture to meet growing human resource needs in protected areas. By charting a new path for workforce development, protected areas may be able to address long-standing human resources issues and contribute to community empowerment and sustainable livelihoods. © 2023, IUCN - International Union for the Conservation of Nature.

The existing terrestrial protected area network in Madagascar covers 10.4% of its land area and includes at least part of the range of the majority of described native species of vertebrates with known distributions (97.1% of freshwater fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals combined) and plants (67.7%). The overall figures are higher for threatened species (97.7% of threatened vertebrates and 79.6% of threatened plants occurring within at least one protected area). International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List assessments and Bayesian neural network analyses for plants identify overexploitation of biological resources and unsustainable agriculture as the most prominent threats to biodiversity.

The microbial biomass-N in the surface soil layer (0-10 cm) was maximum (285.4 mu g g(-1)) in the undisturbed core zone and minimum (75.1 mu g g(-1)) in the 1-year-old jhum fallow, which was subjected to intense human activities. Similarly, dehydrogenase (TPF released = 0.70 mu g g(-1) 24 h(-1)) and urease activities (NH4 released = 31.56 mu g 100 g(-1) 6 h(-1)) were maximum in the undisturbed core zone and minimum (TPF released = 0.37 mu g g(-1) 24 h(-1) and NH4 released = 10.78 mu g 100 g(-1) 6 h(-1), respectively) in the 1-year-old jhum fallow. Thus, human activities in the buffer zone of the BR were responsible for significant reduction in both microbial biomass-N and enzyme activities. Both these properties showed recovery during regrowth of vegetation on jhum fallows. Microbial biomass-N and enzyme activities declined significantly (P < 0.01) with increasing soil depth at all the sites.

A total of eight sites, representing a gradient from highly protected woodlands and grasslands to unreserved grasslands, were selected for sampling. We employed the road transect methodology under a distance sampling framework to achieve our objectives. We evaluated the realized growth rate of the Gir ungulate population through linear regression analysis. Our findings revealed that deer species exhibited higher density and biomass in woodlands compared to grasslands and coastal forests. On the other hand, antelopes showed higher density and biomass in grasslands and coastal forests compared to woodlands. The density gradient of wild prey species was influenced by various factors, including habitat structure, social organization, grouping tendencies, and topography. Over the last four decades, the population of wild prey species in Gir showed minimal changes. Our study provides a comprehensive understanding of wild prey species’ density and biomass patterns at the landscape level. The inclusion of findings from ecologically significant and unique areas, such as coastal forests, further enhances the importance of this study. The implications of this study extend beyond the conservation of wild prey species alone; they also contribute to the conservation of the large carnivore guild in the Saurashtra landscape.

This shift is a result of the commitment of Colombia with international conventions and treaties (e.g., CBD, Aichi Target 11) and the realization by public and private research organizations of the fast rate of marine biodiversity loss and fisheries decline. This paper presents an examination of the situation of MPAs in Colombia and identifies barriers and opportunities to improve MPA governance. The analysis of documents, semi-structured interviews with environmental organizations (n = 13) and community representatives (n = 56), and focus groups (n = 6) provides a comprehensive understanding of the Colombia MPA system and the challenges for improving its governance. The adoption of international conservation policies and planning tools is driving the increasing numbers of MPAs. Yet, the governance effectiveness of the MPAs, particularly under the current top-down approach, deserves consideration. Barriers and opportunities for improving MPA governance are related to both government and coastal community stakeholders, and include lack of implementation of participatory policies, limited institutional and community organization capacity, loss of self-regulatory fishing practices, and violence among others. Partnerships among NGOs, private organizations, communities and government together with recent afro-descendant community organization and leadership represent key opportunities for fostering meaningful participation of communities in MPA planning/management and for improving MPA governance. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.",,49-62,,,125,,Ocean Coast.

Identifying the habitat and landscape traits that determine the establishment and persistence of populations is essential for implementing effective management plans to control invasive species. We employed multi-season occupancy models to identify the habitat and landscape traits that determined the local colonization and extinction probabilities of an invasive bird (House Sparrow—Passer domesticus), in order to provide recommendations for controlling its population within a natural protected area immersed in Mexico City. We selected traits that exhibited management potential to provide feasible recommendations for controlling the species. We observed that increasing values of shrub cover, tree cover, and distance to developed areas discouraged the sparrow from invading new sites of the reserve. Simultaneously, greater distances to developed areas promoted the extinction of the species across invaded sites. These effects might be related to resource availability, foraging preferences of the species, predatory exposure, and competition. Preserving tree and shrub cover as a natural barrier for dissuading species arrival represents a key management objective for its control in the reserve. Greater management efforts must be focused at those sites of the reserve that are closer to developed areas, given that the latter may function as source habitats for the House Sparrow. Our approach for identifying management actions that impact the population dynamics of an invasive species might provide crucial results to control this type of populations. Such a strategy could be replicated for other species and natural protected areas to enhance the conservation value of reserves and provide alternatives when dealing with invasive species. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,3767-3776,,12,23,,Biol.

However, the extent to which ecosystems in MPAs exhibit resilience remains debated. To address this question, we evaluated changes in reef fish species and functional diversity over time in relation to environmental and anthropogenic disturbances at multiple locations in the Gulf of California, Mexico. From 2005 to 2017, we assessed reef fish species richness and abundance in three MPAs: one no-take marine reserve (Cabo Pulmo) and two multi-use marine protected areas (MUMPAs: Espíritu Santo and Loreto). To examine change in functional diversity and composition, we calculated three functional diversity indices – functional richness, functional dispersion and functional originality – using six biological traits (size, mobility, period of activity, gregariousness, water column position, and diet). Species richness, density and functional diversity were maintained over time (resilience) in the no-take marine reserve. In contrast, MUMPAs showed temporal decline in species richness, which translated into decreases in functional richness and increases in functional dispersion. These differences were also observed at the species level: in Cabo Pulmo, only two ‘loser’ species declined in density, while Espíritu Santo and Loreto showed declines of 12 and 17 species, respectively. The two MUMPAs also shared 9 of the total 22 ‘loser’ species, which are generally abundant and common in the Gulf of California. Density declines were attributed to the combined effect of environmental (sea surface temperature and Chlorophyll-a anomalies) and anthropogenic (fishing, tourism and coastal population density) disturbances. Given the regional decline and the ecological importance of dominant species, long-term decreases in their populations can profoundly modify processes and reef ecosystem services in this region. Thus, local management strategies should be implemented to try to reverse the observed recent decline in fish diversity in MUMPAs. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,204,,Prog.

Although MUMPAs have produced benefits around the world, the persistence of moderate fishing pressure reduces the likelihood of achieving the primary objective of these areas, which is the conservation of ecosystems. In this study we used traditional and functional metrics to evaluate how fish assemblages changed through time in a MUMPA, including shifts in species responses and in ecological processes. We conducted visual censuses of fishes at Espíritu Santo Island, México (MUMPA; N D320; 24°N, 110°W) from 2005 to 2017 to assess fish richness, size-distribution and density. Three functional indices were calculated using six traits (size, mobility, period of activity, aggregation, position in water column and diet): Functional richness (volume occupied by species), dispersion (complementarity between species) and originality (inverse of functional redundancy). We compared fish diversity among three management zone types (sustainable fishing, traditional fishing and no-take zones), through a 13-year period, assessing which species increased or decreased in occurrence, density, and biomass, and how indices respond over time. Despite a general increase in biomass and stability in density and originality, we detected a reduction in fish biodiversity in the form of declines in species and functional richness, which could imply the risk of local extinction and decrease in certain ecosystem processes. In addition, changes in functional dispersion showed that some functions are losing representation through time. Although no single cause is apparent, such factors as competitive interactions, habitat loss and persistence of fishing pressure potentially explain these decreases. The rise in biomass was associated with a general increase in the average size, rather than increased biomass of commercial species, as the latter remained stable during the study period. Expansion of no-take areas, enforcement of fishing regulations, and surveillance in core zones, should be implemented to reverse the decline in particular species and to promote conservation of fish functional diversity in this MUMPA. © 2020 Ramírez-Ortiz et al.",,,,4,2020,,PeerJ,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: PeerJ Inc.,,,,Article; ASSEMBLAGES; binomial distribution; biodiversity; Biological conservation; biomass; California; commercial species; COMMUNITY; conservation biology; ecosystem; fish; Fish community; Functional diversity; FUNCTIONAL DIVERSITY; marine biology; Multi-use marine protected area; MYCTEROPERCA-ROSACEA; No-take zones; nonhuman; pore size distribution; REDUNDANCY; REEF FISH; RESERVES; RESPONSES; ROCKY REEF; Sea of Cortez; species richness; TARGETS; Temporal monitoring; water,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

There have been advances towards these goals since the park was created, but the involvement of resource users in natural resource management and conservation still remains a challenge as in many other people-oriented parks worldwide (Brechin et al., 2002; Wilshusen et al., 2002; Adams et al., 2004). Many factors determine in what aspects, when, and how resource users could be involved in resource management and conservation. However, in all cases natural resource managers face the issue of identifying and involving resource users who could spread ideas and practices to improve natural resource management and conservation. This issue becomes increasingly relevant in large-scale initiatives (e.g. Ecosystem-based management initiatives) where it is more effective and ef?cient to ?nd representatives who can participate in planning processes and then communicate with, and engage, their peers (Layzer, 2008; Kubo and Supriyanto, 2010).

Mexico’s legislation protects most of these marine plants; however, the protection often fails in application. The Gulf of California, despite being a biodiversity hotspot, has scant data on seagrasses. Here, human activity and climate change increasingly threaten these coastal ecosystems, with conservation and research efforts lacking coordination at a regional level. Our manuscript aimed to review and standardize existing data on Gulf of California seagrass species, ensuring open access for data updates; pinpointing conservation deficiencies; and guiding future research. We have added new records to the official public data, but we were able to recapture only 25% of the seagrass locations meaning a potential reduction in their historical distribution of 45.8%. Even though Mexico’s legislation protects some species of seagrasses, it protection often fails in the application. We identified that only 6.1% of the seagrass locations are within protected areas that recognize their presence in their management plans (e.g., the Balandra Flora and Fauna Protected Area and the Upper Gulf of California and Colorado River Delta Biosphere Reserve). At least 55.9% of seagrass records are associated with potentially damaging activities like pollution, coastal modification or biological resources use, while 23% are exposed to higher frequency of marine heatwaves. Given the importance of seagrass meadows under Mexican law and their internationally recognized ecological value, sharing current information and guiding research is essential. Our study seeks to galvanize renewed research initiatives and raise more awareness on the conservation of the Gulf of California’s seagrasses.

Since beaches are important from different points of views such as ecology, tourism, economy, pollution or invasive species studies and management, fisheries, estate development, protected areas, among others it is relevant to describe and understand parameters in detail. This work offers a multi-purpose and interactive beach descriptor called BeachLog.

Also, BeachLog can be a didactic tool to aiming to bring environmental sciences closer to technology through the use of spreadsheets and dashboards. BeachLog is based on the more frequent parameters in the literature, selected, organized, accounted for, and altered/added according to expert opinion.

Planning & Management was absent on all 14 beaches studied, pointing out the relevance and gaps in this group. In the other groups it was possible to observe variation in the parameter occurrence, indicating that each beach is different and it is important to observe parameters individually.

This involves the analysis of ecosystems establishing their ecological interactions as well as external factors such as humans’ presence, changes in seasonal patterns of flow, physicochemical characteristics of water bodies, and the type and amount of pollutants entering these water bodies mostly due to surface but also some subsurface runoff. The aim of this article is to establish if soil type, vegetation or land use changes have a major impact affecting water quality in aguadas (a type of cenotes) and therefore its availability as a source of water in a rain forest ecosystem with karst soil and shortages. For this, nine aguadas were monitored in a Natural Protected area, whose importance is based on sustaining the ecosystem of different species, as well as to provide a source of water supply. The monitoring work considered soil and vegetation characteristics and water quality, in the aguadas, with and without direct human impact. Results showed that the studied sites at the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve (RBC) can be divided into three areas according to several factors some of them soil type, vegetation and climate. For each of the studies sites, sample tests of microorganisms, physico-chemical parameters and metals were performed. It was observed that deforestation around water bodies, transforming jungle into agricultural land, is critical since it creates a climatic transition zone affecting the water balance, and generates erosion moving nutrients and soil materials into water bodies. Additionally, the presence of total coliforms due to the combined use of water for human and animal use was observed. The natural influence by rock washing or erosion in the subsurface and surface has an effect on production systems due to the presence of carbonates, sodium, calcium, magnesium and potassium. Besides these elements, all aguadas also have high concentrations of: cadmium, manganese, cupper, iron, aluminium, barium and strontium but they are agreed with the Water Quality Criteria. La Ceiba aguada has some traces of arsenic 0.019 mg/L and vanadium 0.041 mg/L. The presence of these elements need to be specified (natural or anthropogenic causes) in order to propose a treatment process. Based on this, soil and vegetation are clue to define water quality in a natural reserve, thus it is necessary to reduce deforestation and recovering the capacity of the resilience through a sustainable forest management. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.",,02-Nov,,,121,,Ecol.

In spite of the environmental importance of vast oceanic ecosystems, most conservation efforts mainly focus on neritic areas. To identify relevant oceanic areas for conservation, we assessed the year-round spatial distribution and spatio-temporal overlap of eight truly oceanic seabird species of gadfly petrels (Pterodroma spp.) inhabiting the Atlantic Ocean. Location: Atlantic Ocean. Methods: Using tracking data (mostly from geolocators), we examined year-round distributions, the timing of life-cycle events, and marine habitat overlap of eight gadfly petrel species that breed in the Atlantic Ocean. Results: We compiled 125 year-round tracks. Movement strategies ranged from non-migratory to long-distance migrant species and from species sharing a common non-breeding area to species dispersing among multiple non-breeding sites. Gadfly petrels occurred throughout the Atlantic Ocean but tended to concentrate in subtropical regions. During the boreal summer, up to three species overlapped spatio-temporally over a large area around the Azores archipelago. During the austral summer, up to four species coincided in a core area in subtropical waters around Cape Verde, and three species shared habitat over two distinct areas off Brazil. The petrels used many national Exclusive Economic Zones, although they also exploited offshore international waters. Main conclusions: Tracking movements of highly mobile vertebrates such as gadfly petrels can provide a powerful tool to evaluate and assess the potential need for and location of protected oceanic areas. As more multispecies, year-round data sets are collected from wide-ranging vertebrates, researchers and managers will have greater insight into the location of biodiversity hotspots.

Several countries are now engaged in identifying these areas based on animal tracking, but this is often limited to a few individuals from one breeding population, which may result in biased portrayals of the key marine habitats. To help identify such foraging areas, we compiled tracking data of a marine top predator from the main breeding colonies in the Central Macaronesia. Location: North-east Atlantic Ocean. Methods: Over seven years, we tracked the foraging movements of Cory's shearwaters (Calonectris borealis) from several populations during the chick-rearing period using global positioning system and platform terminal transmitter devices. Results: We obtained foraging trips from 174 shearwaters breeding on six important colonies representative of the range occupied in the Macaronesian Archipelagos of Madeira, Salvages and Canaries. Our results show that birds orient and move rapidly towards the closest neritic waters over the African continental shelf. Birds from different colonies show substantial spatial segregation in their foraging grounds but consistently overlap in some specific foraging areas along the Canary Current characterized by high productivity. By weighting the use of foraging grounds according to the size of each study population, we inferred the overall exploitation of such areas. Main conclusions: Our meta-population approach provides a more comprehensive picture of space use from both perspectives: the studied species and the Canary Current system. Foraging grounds consistently used by several populations may not be adequately identified by tracking a single population, and therefore, multiple population tracking studies are needed to properly delineate key conservation areas and inform conservation planning in the marine ecosystem. Finally, we highlight the long-term stability and sustainability of identified foraging areas and propose that countries with geographical jurisdictions over the Canary Current area should work towards multilateral agreements to set management plans for this key marine ecosystem. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,1284-1298,,10,19,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Animalia; Atlantic Ocean; Atlantic Ocean (Subtropical); Aves; Biologging; breeding population; Calonectris; Calonectris borealis; Canary Current; conservation planning; continental shelf; feeding; forage; GPS; Macaronesia; Madeira; marine ecosystem; Meta-population feeding grounds; metapopulation; Portugal; predator; Procellariidae; protected area; seabird; Seabird at-sea distribution; Selvagens; space use; sustainability; tracking; Tracking top predators,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The first marine protected area was declared in 1982. Up to December 1993, nine areas were declared, protecting a combined area of 15 000 ha. (0.5%) of the coastline. A variety of nomenclature has been used-fishery preserved zones, hunting refuges, marine reserves, marine-terrestrial park-and MPAs have been declared under different legislation. Perhaps as a consequence, the objectives of MPAs (species, habitats, restocking living resources) are diverse and there is a very uneven distribution of types of habitat protected and of protected areas between the Mediterranean and Atlantic coast. The administrative system of protection and management of marine areas is complex, shared between central and regional governments. There is, however, one piece of legislation that has been specifically tailored for the marine environment which allows the creation of 'marine reserves'. To date, five reserves have been declared using this legislation. The problems encountered in the establishment and vigilance of MPAs and solutions implemented have resulted in a logical system for the declaration of future MPAs. The use of MPAs as a management tool for the protection of marine habitats and species is gaining impetus in Spain, with eleven new protected areas proposed. © 1994.",,125-138,,2,24,,Ocean Coast.

Foot trails are often overlooked as they represent only a small fragment of the landscape, yet they can be important sources of sediment, particularly in pristine areas. The trail network above East End Bay on the island of St Croix in the US Virgin Islands is the sole anthropogenic source of terrestrial sediment in the area. Concern over the potential for trail erosion to stress nearshore coral reefs of the East End Marine Park led to trail reconstruction and restoration efforts. The objectives of this study were to: (1) quantify trail erosion rates; (2) identify key factors controlling erosion rates; (3) develop an empirical trail erosion model. Sediment production was measured from 12 trail segments with sediment traps from November 2009 to October 2011. Annual trail erosion rates ranged from 0.6 to 81Mgha-1yr-1. The lower values were from abandoned trails with a dense vegetation cover, while the highest rates were associated with devegetated trails immediately following construction or restoration. Trail erosion was a function of rainfall, slope, and vegetation cover density raised to the negative 1.7th power. Annual trail erosion rates were one- to three-orders of magnitude higher than measured surface erosion rates on undisturbed hillslopes. The absence of rills or gullies suggests that traditional parametric or repeated transect monitoring commonly used to assess trail erosion may greatly underestimate actual sediment production rates. The new empirical trail erosion model serves as a tool to assess the effects of trail construction and restoration activities in the generation of sediment from small catchments in East End Bay and in other similar settings. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,1764-1777,,13,39,,Earth Surf.

Understanding primate species’ habitat and dietary requirements is critical in creating effective conservation management plans. Indri indri, a Critically Endangered lemur species from Madagascar’s eastern rainforests, has a diet dominated by leaves. We conducted a long-term study of I. indri feeding behavior in Maromizaha Protected Area by collecting over 4000 hours of observational data on six habituated groups from 2011–2019. Our specific objectives were to: 1) characterize the habitat of the study groups, 2) identify the availability of leaves, fruits, and flowers, 3) provide a description of the general diet of I. indri including variation therein, 4) describe a newly observed regurgitation and re-ingestion behavior, and 5) perform phytochemical analyses of the leaves and fruits which were likely causing the regurgitation and re-ingestion. Areas of similar topography generally had similar forest structure. Phenological monitoring of 18 botanical plots located in the I. indri territories showed that the availability of young leaves, fruits, and flowers varied seasonally and was impacted by damage from a cyclone in February 2012. All groups were mainly folivorous but showed some annual variation in the proportion of the diet devoted to fruit. Leaves and fruits consumed before regurgitation and re-ingestion was observed contained hydrolysable and condensed tannins, which may explain the presence of the behavior. In conclusion, this study provides important natural history data on the behavioral flexibility of I. indri to inform their conservation. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.",,584-610,,4,43,,Int.

The species has attracted significant attention from herpetologists and captive breeders but relatively little effort has been given to its conservation in the wild. We surveyed 33 reported breeding localities of the species to determine sites of conservation importance and aspects of habitat use and seasonality. We found a total of 471 M. aurantiaca in 26 different localities, all of which were characterised by intact or degraded humid forest on sloping ground alongside temporary lentic ponds in narrow valleys. Additional monitoring at a single site revealed that adult M. aurantiaca predominantly used the ponds and surrounding humid forest habitat during the austral summer and moved upslope at the beginning of the austral winter. Effective conservation for this species should therefore include measures to safeguard both forest and aquatic habitat features. Although 62% of localities occurred in sites with a positive conservation status (provisional protected areas or Ramsar sites), there is currently heavy pressure from artisanal mining, logging and agriculture in these areas. Because a further 15% of sites occur on land due to be impacted by mining and an additional 23% were at sites without any biodiversity management, the future of M. aurantiaca in the wild is precarious. A species conservation strategy is therefore needed to produce a cohesive plan for the future which aims to secure as many sites as possible for conservation. © 2010 Herpetological Association of Africa.",,65-78,,1,59,,Afr.

The complexity of effectively managing protected areas within the context of densely populated, highly used and contested coastlines points to the need for decision-support processes that effectively engage users and incorporate social, cultural and economic considerations alongside ecological objectives. Multi-Criteria Approaches (MCA) are established tools for complex decision-making involving uncertain, multi-scale environmental issues and multiple actors. Working closely with decision-makers, we develop a novel approach that draws on the strengths of MCA, but focuses less on arithmetic outcomes, instead presenting a deliberative-democratic process to facilitate emergence of shared values around effective conservation management. We nest these deliberations within the Community Voice Method (CVM), an interpretive film-based approach. CVM enables reflection on deeper-held values, stepping back from polarised policy debates and fostering conversation around shared values connecting people to place. We discuss how the integrated interpretive-deliberative methodology by a transdisciplinary team improved participation and engagement and provided outputs that supported improved decision-making. The approach made diverse impacts and benefits explicit and highlighted shared values amongst participants as a critical part of establishing robust management. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.",,344-357,,,21,,Ecosyst.

An attempt was made to document the diversity and biomass of plant biota (seaweeds and seagrasses) destroyed and discarded during the trawl operations along the Tuticorin (renamed as Thoothukudi), Southeast coast of India. Fifteen species of seaweeds and three species of seagrasses were recorded during the study period. The biomass of plant biota discarded was 5 to 50 kg/haul/h during the study period, and the average discard was higher (44.4%) in the pre-monsoon season. The biomass dislodged mainly constituted the seagrasses (63.0%) whereas seaweeds contributed to the extent of 37.0 % of the total biomass. The variation in the values of the biomass of seaweeds and seagrasses shows no statistically significant difference (p-value >0.05) between the seasons. Among the seaweeds, Solieria robusta was most severely damaged species (9 kg/haul/h) whereas the seagrass Cymodocea serrulata was destroyed to the extent of 30 kg/haul/h.

Demand for wildlife products has resulted in unsustainable exploitation of commercially valuable species resulting in local extirpation of vulnerable species. Camera trap, track and sign, and questionnaire-based surveys were used to examine (a) wildlife species targeted by hunters, (b) the importance of wild meat for household consumption, and (c) the significance of hunting as a livelihood activity for resident villages. Certain commercially valuable species highly preferred by hunters were either completely absent from hunt records (tiger, musk deer and otter) or infrequently obtained during actual hunts (bear, pangolin). Species obtained by hunters were commonly occurring species such as muntjacs with low commercial value and not highly preferred by hunters. Fifty eight percent of respondents (n = 84) indicated trade, 27% listed subsistence use and 14% listed human-wildlife conflict as the main reason for hunting (n = 84). Average amount of wild meat consumed per month is not significantly higher during the hunting season compared to the planting season (paired t-test, P > 0.05). Throughout the year, the average amount of fish consumed per month was higher than livestock or wild meat (Friedman test, P < 0.0001). Hunting is driven largely by trade and wild meat, while not a critical source of food for a large number of families could potentially be an important, indirect source of access to food for hunting families. Findings and trends from this study are potentially useful in helping design effective conservation strategies to address globally prevalent problems of declining wildlife populations and dependent human communities. The study provides recommendations to reduce illegal hunting and protect vulnerable species by strengthening park management through enforcement, increasing the opportunity costs of poaching, establishing no-take zones and research to determine the economic significance of hunting for livelihoods. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,143-153,,2,46,,Environ.

Remotely sensed data with very high spatial resolution are currently used to study vegetation, but most satellite sensors are limited to four spectral bands, which is insufficient to identify some natural vegetation formations. The study objectives are to discriminate natural vegetation and identify natural vegetation formations using a Worldview-2 satellite image. The classification of the Worldview-2 image and ancillary thematic data was performed using a hybrid pixel-based and object-oriented approach. A hierarchical scheme using three levels was implemented, from land cover at a field scale to vegetation formation. This method was applied on a 48km2 site located on the French Atlantic coast which includes a classified NATURA 2000 dune and marsh system. The classification accuracy was very high, the Kappa index varying between 0.90 and 0.74 at land cover and vegetation formation levels respectively. These results show that Wordlview-2 images are suitable to identify natural vegetation. Vegetation maps derived from Worldview-2 images are more detailed than existing ones. They provide a useful medium for environmental management of vulnerable areas.

Although remote sensing has been used to map plant communities for several years, the maps produced are not sufficiently accurate to meet management requirements. This can be explained by the cumulative effects of floristic and spectral uncertainty. The objective of this study was to accurately map grassland plant communities using a comprehensive fuzzy approach in order to address floristic and spectral uncertainty. Location: Sub-brackish wet grasslands, Marais Poitevin, France. Methods: We first created a compromise typology-floristically and spectrally consistent-to perform fuzzy noise clustering on a joint PCA matrix derived from vegetation releves and remote sensing data. This typology had two levels, which corresponded to spectral signatures and plant communities, respectively. Second, we mapped grassland plant communities to predict the fuzzy model from the remote sensing data. We applied this approach using (1) a very high spatial resolution multispectral satellite image and a LiDAR-derived Digital Terrain Model acquired on a 73 km(2) wet grassland site and (2) more than 200 releves collected in the field. Results: The results show that (1) the compromise typology yields significantly higher mapping accuracy than classic phytosociological typology (62% and 26%, respectively); (2) compared to a crisp approach, the fuzzy approach improves mapping accuracy by 17 percentage points and (3) a single plant community can be defined by several (1-4) distinct spectral signatures. Conclusions: The comprehensive fuzzy procedure successfully mapped herbaceous plant communities at the ecosystem scale using inexpensive remote sensing data. Floristic and spectral uncertainty was considered in a fuzzy approach, resulting in the mapping of nine herbaceous plant communities with acceptable accuracy. As the natural habitats were characterized at the plant community level, correspondence with functional properties of the species or with ecosystem services can be easily inferred. These encouraging results open up new ways to meet the requirements for monitoring the conservation status of natural habitats in the EU Habitats Directive.",,678-693,,4,21,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000450061000012,,,,,,,CLASSIFICATION; CONSERVATION STATUS; EARTH OBSERVATION; FUNCTIONAL TRAITS; INTRAANNUAL TIME-SERIES; LiDAR; MANAGEMENT; NATURA 2000 HABITATS; noise clustering; ORDINATION; phytosociology; Pleiades; remote sensing; VEGETATION PATTERNS; vegetation typology; WETLAND; wetlands,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Soil characterization analysis was carried out and the main threats to conservation were identified. As a result, a decline of approximately 40% was observed in the number of individuals and in the quality of their habitat. The main threats to their conservation were found to be the seasonal occurrence of rural fires and the expansion of invasive species, such as Acacia dealbata Link and Ailanthus altissima (Mill.)

The recent literature overwhelmingly agrees that including stakeholders in these planning processes is critical to success; but, given the countless alternative ways even simple spatial regulations can be configured, how likely is it that a stakeholder-driven process will generate plans that deliver on the promise of MSP? Here, we use a spatially explicit, dynamic bioeconomic model to show that stakeholder-generated plans are doomed to fail in the absence of strong scientific guidance. While strategically placed spatial regulations can improve outcomes remarkably, the vast majority of possible plans fail to achieve this potential. Surprisingly, existing scientific rules of thumb do little to improve outcomes. Here, we develop an alternative approach in which models are used to identify efficient plans, which are then modified by stakeholders. Even if stakeholders alter these initial proposals considerably, results hugely outperform plans guided by scientific rules of thumb. Our results underscore the importance of spatially explicit dynamic models for the management of marine resources and illustrate how such models can be harmoniously integrated into a stakeholder-driven MSP process. © 2014 The Author(s) Published by the Royal Society.

Some spatial management approaches are quite blunt, as when marine protected areas (MPAs) are established to restrict fishing in specific locations. Other management tools, such as zoning or spatial user rights, will affect the distribution of fishing effort in a more nuanced manner. Considerable research has focused on the ability of MPAs to increase fishery returns, but the potential for the broader class of spatial management approaches to outperform MPAs has received far less attention. We use bioeconomic models of seven nearshore fisheries in Southern California to explore the value of optimized spatial management in which the distribution of fishing is chosen to maximize profits. We show that fully optimized spatial management can substantially increase fishery profits relative to optimal nonspatial management but that the magnitude of this increase depends on characteristics of the fishing fleet and target species. Strategically placed MPAs can also increase profits substantially compared with nonspatial management, particularly if fishing costs are low, although profit increases available through optimal MPA-based management are roughly half those from fully optimized spatial management. However, if the same total area is protected by randomly placing MPAs, starkly contrasting results emerge: most random MPA designs reduce expected profits. The high value of spatial management estimated here supports continued interest in spatially explicit fisheries regulations but emphasizes that predicted increases in profits can only be achieved if the fishery is well understood and the regulations are strategically designed.",,11884-11889,,29,109,,Proc.

Here, we examined the ability of diver operated stereo-video to characterize reef fish spawning aggregations, using an opportunistic encounter with the first spawning aggregation of the Mexican hogfish, Bodianus diplotaenia, recorded in the Galapagos Marine Reserve. We aimed to provide estimates of total density, length and reproductive behaviour, using quantitative surveys and 3D representation of the spawning event. 3D scenes of aggregating fish in relation to reef substrate were produced to compute distances between individuals (of the same and different sex), and between individuals and the substrate. Males swam significantly higher in the water column and further away from each other when compared to females, which displayed sociable behaviour closer to the bottom. The mean fork length of males (39.79 ± 6.98 cm) was nearly twice the size of females (24.14 ± 5.39 cm). We show that diver operated stereo-video can provide accurate baseline measures of fish length, density and reproductive behaviours.

We aimed to test whether static no-take zones within a large, sustainable-use MPA prevented overlap between gentoo penguins and a krill fishery during two winters with contrasting prey fields. LOCATION: South Georgia, Southwest Atlantic Ocean. METHOD: We used satellite tracking (N = 16, June–September 2018) to describe gentoo penguin movements and distribution and quantified their overlap with the MPA’s no-take zone (NTZ) and the krill fishing grounds. DNA metabarcoding of scats (N = 220, April–September 2018) was used to quantify diet. RESULTS: When krill were at moderate densities and evenly distributed in 2001, gentoo penguins would have spent all of their time within the 12 NM NTZ, but when availability was low in 2018, they spent 46.3% of their time outside the NTZ and 9.6% within the krill fishing grounds. The extension of the NTZ to 30 km in response to this finding would have produced a 14.9% increase in protection for penguins and displaced 4% of fishery hauls. Gentoo penguin diet comprised 25.8% krill, which is lower than in the late 1980s but more than in 2009. MAIN CONCLUSIONS: Gentoo penguins extend their foraging range when krill is scarce, which increases the potential for spatial overlap with the krill fishery during periods of nutritional stress. Current regulations allow for expansion of both extent and catches by the krill fishery and, should this occur, gentoo penguins may face heightened risks from competition. A dynamic ocean management framework, that extends closed areas in response to near real-time data on penguin movements and krill density estimates, may reduce the potential for competition in this sustainable-use MPA while allowing a profitable krill fishery. © 2021 The Authors.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are considered to be effective conservation and fisheries management tools that generate various ecological and social-economic benefits. MPAs come in all types and sizes, and are managed following different principles, users' needs, and preferences. Madagascar's unique marine biodiversity is currently protected under a range of MPA regimes that emerged comparatively recently, long after the terrestrial protected areas. This study describes the historical outline of the MPA development process in Madagascar, and proposes inputs for the future management of MPAs. A policy arrangement approach to structure an iterative Delphi survey was used to analyse how discourse, actors, rules and resources have shaped MPA development in Madagascar. The findings suggest that international initiatives and funding have played a key role in the early days of MPA emergence, while currently co-management between governmental and non-governmental actors shows mixed results regarding conservation effectiveness. Challenges include a better coordination of efforts among various stakeholders, granting a large responsibility to local communities, e.g. in the successful locally managed marine areas (LMMAs), and integrating customary law into the set of regulations for marine conservation and sustainable management in Madagascar. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,91-108,,,105,,Mar.

However, their global distribution has been declining since the 1800s. At the current rate of decline of almost 1.5% per year, almost half the meadows will be lost in the next 100 years. To prevent or minimize their loss, global monitoring programs have been established, such as SeagrassNet.

The aim of this study was to gather data obtained by this protocol and to set a baseline for knowledge of the seagrass meadows in marine national parks in Southern Thailand. The data were collected from February 2006 until March 2009, three times a month at three national parks: Haad Chao Mai, Tarutao and Mu Ko Petra. At each site, the data were obtained along three transects parallel to the coast with 12 quadrats, in which species coverage and biomass above and below ground were recorded.

This study examines the relative socioeconomic value of the revealed and stated preferences for distinct seasons, types of ecosystem, and management practices within the Carmel biosphere reserve (BR), Israel. The results show that the highest annual consumer-surplus (CS) per household was measured in springtime at a mixed maquis-forest ecosystem (USD 35.11). The springtime value mainly represented the preferences of local visitors, whereas the lower autumn CS (USD 11.2) value arose mainly from non-local visitors. Analysis of the reasons underlying willingness to pay (WTP) reveals that heritage is a strong positive predictor of WTP in all ecosystem types. The higher predicted WTP to preserve the ecosystems was estimated at the forest and the seashore locations (USD 59.5 and 49.6 respectively).

This is largely caused by transnational mobility and migration, international labor, resource markets, and trade. Understanding the relationship between humans and wildlife, and their associated telecoupling processes, helps to promote better management practices and governance for reconciling socioeconomic and conservation interests. Even remote places on the globe exhibit these features. For example, in southern Patagonia’s coastal and marine ecosystems, seabirds are not only very abundant and charismatic members of the wildlife community, nowadays, their colonies are a main tourism attraction of global significance, and in the past they were used for consumptive and scientific purposes that also linked the “uttermost ends of the Earth” with distant places. Thus, in this study, we review human-seabird interactions in the iconic Beagle Channel (BC) in the Argentine portion of the Tierra del Fuego Archipelago. We adapted and employed the coupled human and natural systems (CHANS) approach and telecoupling framework to integrate disparate social and biological information and obtain a more holistic understanding of current human-seabird dynamics and trends in the BC. Although our assessment includes the temporal scale of human-seabird relationships, we centered the CHANS and telecoupling analysis on the modern seabird-tourism interaction, focused on the channel’s Argentine sector, in which tourism is most intensively developed. Our synthesis of the BC’s telecoupled CHANS allowed us to recognize the strong historical local-to-global interactions between both human and natural subsystems and the sharp increase in distance telecoupling during the 20th century. Despite this globalizing trend in seabirds connecting the BC’s local ecosystems to distant places, ironically we found few linkages between Argentina and Chile, despite both countries sharing political sovereignty over this single biogeographical unit. Recognizing and studying the telecouplings identified in this study would help multilateral efforts to incorporate the spillover systems (especially with Chile) and sending systems (i.e., transnational tourists’ countries of origin) into extant regional policies (e.g., state protected areas) and global initiatives (e.g., the United Nations’ sustainable development goals). It would also enable more informed decisions regarding specific proposals based on market-based incentives (e.g., payment for ecosystem services), certification schemes (e.g., Distintivo Onashaga) and participatory approaches (e.g., comanagement of natural resources with local communities). Integrating these scales into the management of the BC would help ensure that humans continue to enjoy meaningful relationships with this unique and charismatic wildlife and at the same time reinforce responsible tourism as a local-global strategy for sustainable development and global conservation. © 2017 by the author(s).",,,,4,22,,Ecol.

It is therefore essential that tools be developed for assessing these threats and the effects of management actions. The T-POD is a commercially available acoustic data logger. We evaluated the efficacy of the T-POD for addressing habitat use questions relevant to management by passive acoustic monitoring of Hector's dolphins C. hectori in the Banks Peninsula Marine Mammal Sanctuary (BPMMS), New Zealand. Three T-PODs were deployed at 3 inshore locations in summer and winter over a 2 yr period (n = 431 d). Acoustic detection data were summarised by detection-positive minutes per day. A linear regression model indicated that season had the largest effect on detection rate (F = 81.95, p < 0.001), with T-POD ID (i.e. variation in sensitivity between individual instruments) also having a significant effect (F = 9.45, p < 0.001). There was no significant difference between acoustic detection rates at night and during the day (paired t-test, t = 0.55, p = 0.59). The present study provides further evidence to support the year-round ban on all gill netting within the BPMMS. We demonstrated that T-PODs can be used to investigate temporal differences in habitat use by Cephalorhynchus dolphins. However, several issues must be considered when designing such experiments; namely the mode of deployment, accounting for variation in sensitivity between individual T-PODs and the possibility of false positive detections from non-target species. © Inter-Research 2009.",,333-339,,1,10,,Endanger.

Apart from providing ecological services to marine organisms, this ecosystem appeal has contributed significantly to tourism development in Pulau Redang. Nonetheless, despite being gazetted as a marine protected area (MPA), the coral reef ecosystem surrounding the island is being threatened by natural and anthropogenic disturbances leading to coral degradation most predominantly in areas close to tourism development. Hence, this paper aims to identify the status of coral health in Pulau Redang as an indicator in supporting management decision to adopt Marine Spatial Planning as a tool for the conservation of reefs in the island. The coral reef datasets were obtained from published articles and a report as well as in-situ data collection through Coral Video Transect at two different areas classified as “near to tourism development” and “far from human activities”. Overall, based on published data and the present coral reef survey from 33 surveyed sites indicated that majority of the reefs can be classified as in ‘fair’ condition. However, reefs located in areas where there are intense human disturbances are found to be in ‘poor’ condition. It can be deduced that natural disturbances, such as the tropical storm in 2019, and anthropogenic activities from nearby tourism area are potentially threatening the coral reef. Therefore, an ecosystem-based and integrated management approach of Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) is recommended in order to conserve the environment, promote ecosystem recovery while maintaining the socio-economic development on the island. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,248,,Ocean Coast.

Seasonal tropical dry forests are among the richest habitats for bees, but only 27% of their original extent remains in Mexico. In contrast, temperate forests harbor fewer bee species and face high deforestation rates, with 40% of their area converted to other land uses. This study aimed to estimate the ? and ? diversities of wild bees and compare bee–plant interaction networks between these two vegetation types. Methods: Wild bees and their interactions with plants were monitored for one year in four sites within the Área de Protección de Flora y Fauna Sierra de Quila. Two sites corresponded to seasonal tropical dry forest and two to temperate forest. ? and ? diversity, connectance, nestedness, web asymmetry, and niche overlap were analyzed. Results: Sierra de Quila harbors high bee diversity, with 155 species in tropical dry forest and 103 in temperate forest. Species turnover between vegetation types was high, although nine species used floral resources in both forests, connecting the interaction networks.

Barriers to, and benefits of, developing partnerships between these agencies have been reviewed and a comprehensive list of 46 specific performance indicators to evaluate MPA and fisheries agency partnership effectiveness has been compiled. These indicators have been linked to the USAID Policy and Coordination Program's partnership assessment framework that applies three evaluation domains, namely: strategic values and capacity to implement, operational processes and resultant impact of a partnership. In a case study designed to test the methodology, the IUCN MPA assessment guidelines and these performance indicators were used as the basis for an evaluation of the effectiveness of an Australian MPA and fisheries inter-agency partnership. This provided a rapid, qualitative evaluation methodology, which indicated that the partnership investigated had resulted in positive impacts in respect to MPA management objectives. However, the evaluation process also identified areas that could be improved, particularly in respect to the agencies' shared values and operational processes. For example, community and stakeholder communication and engagement is an important objective in MPA management, which needs mutual support from both agencies, but this activity scored lowly in the evaluation. As a result, it was recommended that MPA and fisheries agencies should develop formal agreements, such as Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs), and that these agreements should include shared objectives and targets, incentives for both agencies, co-ordinated communication processes and a risk management strategy. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,93-106,,,95,,Ocean Coast.

Permitted activities in these managed-use zones displayed considerable variation between individual marine parks within this one jurisdiction (NSW); many activities appeared to be inconsistent with the stated objectives; and, some were considered high risk. For example, in "" habitat protection"" zones, 24 out of 76 permitted activities were inconsistently applied across the parks and 10 activities were determined to be high risk. ERA indicated that many commercial fishing activities warranted restriction or prohibition in these zones, including trawling, set lining, drift lining, mesh netting and purse seining operations. The best fit between objectives of the managed-use zones and permitted activities was for the most recent park (Batemans Marine Park). Inconsistencies in application of zoning restrictions between these marine parks could lead to stakeholder confusion, unintentional non-compliance and failure to adequately protect the assets. As a result, it is suggested that these managed-use zones may not be achieving their stated objectives and that greater consistency in application of regulations was required. To implement the ERA recommendations, changes would be required across all of the NSW marine parks and this would be best accommodated during a staged review of all zoning plans. It is concluded that ERA is an effective tool to aid in systematically identifying permissible activities in order to meet marine park objectives. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,636-644,,10,53,,Ocean Coast.

Prior to extinction, threatening processes typically alter species behaviour, habitat use, survival and reproductive rates. By monitoring these parameters, we may be able to determine if feral cats are a significant threatening process to a species prior to extinction. We aimed to test whether feral cats are negatively affecting the population size, morphometrics and movement patterns of mulgaras (Dasycercus blythi) on the Matuwa Indigenous Protected Area, in the arid rangelands of Western Australia. We hypothesised that mulgaras, which inhabit a cat-free environment, would have a larger home range and denser population, and be in better condition than those that inhabited an adjacent area with a suppressed density of feral cats. We trapped (n = 64), and radio-tracked (n = 19) mulgara inside and outside an 1100 ha cat-free fenced enclosure on five occasions in 2012. Treatment (i.e. inside or outside the cat-free enclosure) was a significant variable for explaining variation in mulgara density. There was no significant difference in morphometrics or the home ranges of mulgara between the sexes or treatments. Head length, pes length and weight, as well as tail width and length, were significantly different between sexes and over time, suggesting that seasonal variation influences mulgara populations more than low levels of cat predation.  © 2024 The Author(s) (or their employer(s)).",,,,1,46,,Aust.

Therefore, it is also the largest extant species of the paraphyletic assemblage commonly referred to as fishes. As both a phenotypic extreme and a member of the group Chondrichthyes - the sister group to the remaining gnathostomes, which includes all tetrapods and therefore also humans - its genome is of substantial comparative interest. Whale sharks are also listed as an endangered species on the International Union for Conservation of Nature's Red List of threatened species and are of growing popularity as both a target of ecotourism and as a charismatic conservation ambassador for the pelagic ecosystem. A genome map for this species would aid in defining effective conservation units and understanding global population structure. Results: We characterised the nuclear genome of the whale shark using next generation sequencing (454, Illumina) and de novo assembly and annotation methods, based on material collected from the Georgia Aquarium. The data set consisted of 878,654,233 reads, which yielded a draft assembly of 1,213,200 contigs and 997,976 scaffolds. The estimated genome size was 3.44Gb. As expected, the proteome of the whale shark was most closely related to the only other complete genome of a cartilaginous fish, the holocephalan elephant shark. The whale shark contained a novel Toll-like-receptor (TLR) protein with sequence similarity to both the TLR4 and TLR13 proteins of mammals and TLR21 of teleosts. The data are publicly available on GenBank, FigShare, and from the NCBI Short Read Archive under accession number SRP044374. Conclusions: This represents the first shotgun elasmobranch genome and will aid studies of molecular systematics, biogeography, genetic differentiation, and conservation genetics in this and other shark species, as well as providing comparative data for studies of evolutionary biology and immunology across the jawed vertebrate lineages. © 2017 The Author(s).",,,,1,18,,BMC Genomics,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: BioMed Central Ltd.,,,,"amino acid sequence; amino acid substitution; animal; Animals; Article; BIOLOGY; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; ECOLOGY; Elasmobranch; environmental protection; EVOLUTION; Fish; gene sequence; gene synthesis; GENETIC-STRUCTURE; genetics; genome assembly; genome size; genomics; Genomics; Gnathostomata; high throughput sequencing; High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing; male; molecular genetics; Molecular Sequence Annotation; next generation sequencing; nonhuman; phylogeny; population structure; POPULATIONS; PROVIDES INSIGHTS; REVEALS; Rhincodon typus; sequence alignment; sequence analysis; Sequence Analysis; sequence homology; Sequence Homology, Nucleic Acid; shark; Sharks; SIZE; toll like receptor; toll like receptor 13; toll like receptor 4; unclassified drug; Vertebrate; Whale shark; whole genome sequencing; Whole genome shotgun",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The concept of protection of the marine environment has undergone a significant transformation in the last three decades. An approach that includes a broader conservation approach, takes into account the unique characteristics of each marine area, and aims to protect the entire marine ecosystem, is adopted. Although it is seen that the states are taking protective measures for these areas with the regulations for the protection of the environments of their own marine territory, these measures appear to be insufficient in offshore areas outside the states' national jurisdictions. When it comes to solving these problems for marine life, marine protection areas are important in terms of fulfilling this function, although their scope and size differ. Marine protection areas are considered by scientists as suitable tools for the protection of sensitive ecosystems in the case of appropriate planning and effective management of the protected area, taking into account the characteristics of the marine area concerned.

The corridor, an 82,000 ha area of fragmented forests, encompasses 55 rural communities with more than 10,000 people. Deforestation and development are the main threats to biodiversity in the region. The main objective of this study was to estimate the contribution of ten habitat types: forested areas (wildlife refuges and biological reserves), agroforestry systems (homegardens and agrosilvopastoral systems), and other human-dominated land uses on the conservation of bird species in the corridor. Bird data was obtained using point counts along a whole year. Each habitat type had a total of 20 sampling points (200 points total), and each sampling point was visited three times during the summer and three times during the winter seasons. The bird species were categorized by habitat preference, habitat and feeding guilds, and endangered status. We identified a total of 21,015 bird individuals that corresponded to 293 species. Forest fallows (155 species), forest edges (154), homegardens (148), and agrosilvopastoral systems (143) were the land uses with the most species. On the other hand, villages (104 species), oil palm plantations (107), residential tourism projects (111), and tree plantations (115) had the lowest bird species richness values. Biological reserves (124 species) and wildlife refuges (121) had intermediate species richness values. But, they both provided habitat to 68 forest-dependent species that were not found in any other habitat type, and to 19 species (70%) of the species of conservation concern, thus they are a priority habitat for conservation in the region. It is also relevant to highlight the importance of homegardens and agrosilvopastoral systems as habitat for 70% of the avian diversity of the region, including the endangered Scarlet Macaw (Ara macao). Biodiversity conservation should always include primary and oldsecondary forests (e.g., those forests located in wildlife refuges, biological reserves, or isolated forest fragments) as these are the most important habitat type for wildlife at the landscape level. However, the results of this research also show that the matrix, especially agroforestry systems and tree plantations, are important to ensure wildlife conservation in the biological corridor in the short and long term. © 2010 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.

Forest fallows (155 species), forest edges (154), homegardens (148), and agrosilvopastoral systems (143) were the land uses with the most species. On the other hand, villages (104 species), oil palm plantations (107), residential tourism projects (111), and tree plantations (115) had the lowest bird species richness values. Biological reserves (124 species) and wildlife refuges (121) had intermediate species richness values. They both provided habitat to 68 forest-dependent species that were not found in any other habitat type, and to 19 species (70%) of the species of conservation concern; thus, they are a priority habitat for conservation in the region. It is also relevant to highlight the importance of homegardens and agrosilvopastoral systems as habitat for 70% of the avian diversity of the region, including the endangered Scarlet Macaw (Ara macao). Biodiversity conservation should always include primary and old-secondary forests (e.g., those forests located in wildlife refuges, biological reserves, or isolated forest fragments), as these are the most important habitat type for wildlife at the landscape level. However, the results of this research also show that the matrix, especially agroforestry systems and plantations, are important to ensure wildlife conservation in the biological corridor in the short and long term. © 2010 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.

The impacts associated with the most damaging mobile fishing methods are well documented leading to such methods being removed from some partially protected areas. In contrast, the impacts on the ecosystem from static fishing methods, such as pot fishing, are less well understood. Despite commercial pot fishing increasing within the UK, there are very few long term studies (> 1 year) that consider the effects of commercial pot fishing on temperate marine ecosystems. Here we present the results from a controlled field experiment where areas of temperate reef were exposed to a pot fishing density gradient over 4 years within a Marine Protected Area (MPA), simulating scenarios both above and below current levels of pot fishing effort. After 4 years we demonstrate for the first time negative effects associated with high levels of pot fishing effort both on reef building epibiota and commercially targeted species, contrary to existing evidence. Based on this new evidence we quantify a threshold for sustainable pot fishing demonstrating a significant step towards developing well-managed pot fisheries within partially protected temperate MPAs. © 2021, The Author(s).",,,,1,11,,Sci.

Location: Batemans Marine Park, south-eastern Australia. Methods: We used high-resolution bathymetric side-scan sonar imagery to quantify abiotic measures of rocky reef habitat, within a marine protected area (MPA), and examine the relationship between abiotic measures and (1) sessile invertebrate abundance, (2) sessile invertebrate species richness, (3) total fish abundance, (4) fish species richness, and (5) Monacanthidae abundance using generalized additive mixed models (GAMMs). We chose GAMMs as the preferred statistical analysis to account for the spatial autocorrelation present in our data. Results: We found a strong positive relationship between abiotic measures and sessile invertebrate abundance and diversity (r2 > 0.64). By far the most important predictor was vertical relief within a 75 m radii seascape surrounding the faunal survey. Overall, abiotic measures were poor predictors of total fish abundance (r2 = 0.175) and fish species richness (r2 = 0.276), with minimum adequate models producing low explanatory power. In contrast, Monacanthids exhibited a strong positive relationship with abiotic variables (r2 = 0.385), with increased abundance associated with greater depth and distance from soft sediment. Main conclusions: Remotely sensed abiotic measures are important predictors in describing the spatial patterns of sessile invertebrate abundance and diversity and Monacanthid abundance. In contrast, abiotic variables were poor predictors of total fish abundance and diversity. Habitat could be a useful cost-effective surrogate to determine areas of conservation value for certain temperate rocky reef assemblages.

To determine whether marine parks are reaching conservation objectives requires consistent assessments of their effectiveness through time. Lord Howe Island and Balls Pyramid are World Heritage listed remote oceanic islands in the Tasman Sea that support a diverse assemblage of fishes including many endemic and protected species. To conserve the region's unique marine biodiversity, state and Commonwealth marine parks including no-take zones and partially protected zones open to line fishing were established. After approximately 5, 9 and 13 years of protection of shelf habitat we tested for changes in the marine park's fish assemblage across management zones through time using baited remote underwater video systems (BRUVs). We detected no difference in total fish abundance, diversity, or assemblage composition between management zone types. The relative abundance of targeted carangids, yellowtail kingfish and silver trevally were 2 and 1.6 times greater in no-take zones than partially protected zones respectively, however, the substantial variation in their abundances among locations and sites meant that these differences were not statistically significant. No clear difference in the relative abundance of endemic, near-endemic and protected species were observed between management zone types. Generally, the abundance and diversity of fishes varied most among locations, sites and sampling years. The overall lack of difference in the fish assemblage between management zone types and its stability through time suggests current anthropogenic threats are relatively minor, and the marine park's condition is reasonably healthy. Future surveys of the marine park's fish assemblage will be valuable to test for body-size differences between zone types and to monitor trends in condition, particularly in response to possible changes in the number, frequency and intensity of anthropogenic threats. © 2021 The Author(s)",,,,,48,,Reg.

In most cases baseline data are lacking, resulting in evaluations of NTMR effectiveness being Control Impact (CI) assessments. Even with independent replicate areas among management zones, this approach can make it difficult to detect zone effects if seascape attributes, such as habitat structural complexity varies among experimental areas. To determine the importance of structural complexity in evaluations of NTMR effectiveness we performed assessments on the abundance of a targeted fish, yellowtail kingfish (Seriola lalandi), in the Lord Howe Island Marine Park (LHIMP). We compared assessments which did and did not account for structural complexity, quantified using high resolution multibeam bathymetry. Despite almost 3 times more S. lalandi in NTMRs, the traditional CI assessment explained only 3% of the variation in the abundance of S. lalandi and revealed no clear effect of protection. Incorporating structural complexity into the assessment increased the deviance explained to 65% and uncovered an important interaction between zone and structural complexity. Greater abundances of S. lalandi were detected in NTMRs compared to fished zones but only on highly complex reefs. By accounting for structural complexity, we demonstrate that the precision and accuracy of NTMR assessments can be improved, leading to a better understanding of ecological change in response to this conservation strategy. Consequently, where marine park zones vary greatly in structural complexity, we strongly advocate for quantifying and accounting for such variability in assessments of NTMR performance. © 2018",,100-110,,,224,,Biol.

Planning and decision-making can be supported by the quantification and valuation of ecosystem services. To inform the development and management of MPAs a service-orientated framework has been developed to use available data to spatially map and explore the pathways between ecosystem services, processes and the ecological functioning of benthic species for indirect ecosystem service provision within a case study area. The framework demonstrates that ecosystem service delivery is functionally interlinked and ecological function cannot be clearly mapped onto individual ecosystem services. The methodology developed here enables decision-makers to understand the links between benthic species, ecological function and indirect ecosystem services. There is currently no measure to quantify how much function is required to maintain human well-being. This lack of a measure, coupled with a large amount of uncertainty surrounding the links between ecosystem function and ecosystem service provision in marine systems, demonstrates that the inclusion of percentage targets for the conservation of broad-scale habitats in MPA planning and management should be considered within a precautionary approach to maintain the delivery of indirect ecosystem services. © 2012 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.",,273-285,,3,8,,Int.

To influence the discourse on the societal need for MPA networks a matrix approach is used to determine the potential for conservation features within the UK proposed network of 127 MPAs to deliver beneficial ecosystem processes and services. The results suggest a non-uniform distribution of ecosystem services across the network, with the majority of MPAs containing conservation features with the potential to deliver ecosystem processes. Designation of the full recommended network of MPAs may provide a form of ecological insurance against further decline in the delivery of beneficial ecosystem services and may also contribute to wider ecological health by supporting broadscale ecological processes. Non designation of MPAs that contain low frequency of occurrence beneficial ecosystem processes or services could result in their loss.

There has been rapid progress to meet the quantitative goal (the 10% target). However, the qualitative aspects of Aichi target 11 are less well described. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 14 to “conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development” reaffirms the quantitative element of Aichi target 11, and, through the described sub-targets, places further emphasis on the economic and social context of global development. The complexity of the language from Aichi target 11 is not mirrored in SDG 14, leading to a potential scenario where the knowledge and progress towards Aichi Target 11 will be diluted as the focus shifts to the SDGs. This paper presents current knowledge and implementation of the qualitative elements of Aichi Target 11 and highlights gaps in knowledge.

Poor ecological coherence hinders the ecological performance of MPA networks, leading to dysfunction in the flow of ecosystem services and reduced ecosystem benefits, with potentially negative consequences for human well-being. This paper presents four pivotal focus points for future progress that can bridge the gap between ecological and social systems. The aim is to shift the discourse of ‘ecological coherence’ further into the social sphere, and hence support the alignment of the process of designating ecologically coherent MPA networks with the ‘triple bottom line’ of economic development, environmental sustainability, and social inclusion, as described in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), to achieve social–ecological coherence in MPA network design.

We define the term 'site integrity' from a legal and an ecological perspective. We demonstrate that 'site integrity' is the maintenance of ecological processes and functions that support the wider delivery of ecosystem services. 'Site integrity' can be influenced by SAC management. Management that seeks to support 'site integrity' may include the use of buffer zones or connecting areas that extend beyond the SAC site's designated features. We conclude that 'site integrity' and 'favourable conservation status' are powerful legal terms that if fully transposed into the law and policy of Member States can enable the achievement of broader European and International goals for marine conservation. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.,,14-21,,1,72,,Mar.

Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are accepted as an important tool for the restoration and maintenance of marine ecosystem structure, function, health and ecosystem integrity through the conservation of significant species, habitats, or entire ecosystems. In recent years there has been a rapid expansion in the area of ocean designated as an MPA. Despite this progress in spatial protection targets and the progressive knowledge of the essential interdependence between the human and the ocean system, marine biodiversity continues to decline, placing in jeopardy the range of ecosystem services benefits humans rely on. There is a need to address this shortcoming. Ambitious marine conservation: • Requires a shift from managing individual marine features within MPAs to whole-sites to enable repair and renewal of marine systems; • Reflects an ambition for sustainable livelihoods by fully integrating fisheries management with conservation (Ecosystem Based Fisheries Management) as the two are critically interdependent; • Establishes a world class and cost effective ecological and socio-economic monitoring and evaluation framework that includes the use of controls and sentinel sites to improve sustainability in marine management; and • Challenges policy makers and practitioners to be progressive by integrating MPAs into the wider seascape as critical functional components rather than a competing interest and move beyond MPAs as the only tool to underpin the benefits derived from marine ecosystems by identifying other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs) to establish synergies with wider governance frameworks. © 2020 The Authors",,,,,117,,Mar.

Endemic species are plants that live in limited distribution ranges of unique ecology and, thus, are the most vulnerable species to climate change. Therefore, understanding the impacts of climate change on the distribution of these species can assist in developing appropriate plans for their conservation. In this study, we aimed to apply various species distribution models (SDMs) to predict the current potential distributions of two endangered plant species, Silene leucophylla (S. leucophylla, endemic) and Silene schimperiana (S. schimperiana, near-endemic), in Saint Catherine protected area (St. Catherine PA), Egypt. Then, using the best-fit model to project their future distribution under the maximum climate emission scenario (Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5 (RCP8.5)). Six different SDMs were constructed using different geospatial raster imagery sets of environmental factors. For each model, five machine learning (ML) algorithms were used. The results of these ML algorithms were then ensembled by calculating the weighted average of their predictions. Results: Based on the analysis of digital geospatial imageries produced by the best-fitting model, the predicted suitable areas of S. leucophylla and S. schimperiana were 23.1 km2 and 125 km2, respectively. These sites are located mainly in the high-elevation middle northern part of the study area. Annual precipitation, mean temperature of the driest quarter, altitude, and precipitation seasonality were the essential predictors of the distributions of both species. Future predictions of both species indicated opposing results between the studied species. Predictions in the 2050 and 2070 future conditions revealed significant range contraction for the distribution of S. leucophylla. For S. schimperiana, a range shift is predicted, with both range contraction and range expansion of its current suitable habitats, for the same future projections. Unfortunately, in 2080 predictions, both species could be projected to a complete loss from the entire area. Conclusion: This study highlights the importance of including diverse types of environmental variables in SDMs to produce more accurate predictions, rather than relying only on one variable type. It also revealed the potential negative impacts of future climate change on the distributions of two endangered plant species, S. leucophylla and S. schimperiana, inhabiting St. Catherine PA. Consequently, we urgently recommend the initiation of different plans and strategies seeking their conservation. © The Author(s) 2024.",,,,1,13,,Beni-Suef. Univ. J. Basic. Appl.

This represents a decrease of nearly 18% from the 172,125 t landed in 2007, and a 44% decline from the peak landings of 252,568 t observed in 2000. The preliminary ex-vessel economic value of commercial landings in 2008 was nearly $112 million, a decrease of 7% from the $120 million in 2007. Pacific sardine (Sardinops sagax) remained the largest volume fishery in the state at nearly 58,000 t even though landings dropped by nearly a third from 2007.Although the fishery took nearly all of the allocation, the decline in landings was due to a more restrictive harvest guideline (HG) based on declining stock abundance.Market squid (Loligo apalescens) was second in landings at over 36,000 t.Other species in the top-five volume fisheries included northern anchovy (Engraulis mordax) at 14,200 t, Pacific whiting (Merluccius productus) at 4,900 t, and red sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus franciscanus) at 4,700 t.Market squid was the highest valued fishery at $25.3 million followed by Dungeness crab (Cancer magister) at $22.4 million. Other species in the top-five valued fisheries include California spiny lobster (Panulirus interruptus) at nearly $7.9 million, Pacific sardine at $7.6 million and red sea urchin at $6.5 million. Noticeably absent from the 2008 high value fisheries was Pacific Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha). The Pacific Fishery Management Council (Council), the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), and the California Fish and Game Commission (Commission) closed the recreational and commercial ocean salmon fishing seasons in April 2008 because Sacramento River fall Chinook (SRFC) were projected to not meet their Salmon Fishery Management Plan (FMP) conservation objective. In 2008, no commercial landings occurred compared to total commercial landings of 114,141 Chinook (686 t) in 2007 valued at $7.8 million. In the 2008 recreational fishery, six fish were landed during February and March in Fort Bragg (prior to an emergency closure enacted on 1 April 2008) compared to 47,704 salmon landed in California during 2007. California's commercial groundfish harvest for 2008 (13,000 t) increased 25% over landings in 2007 (10,500 t). Pacific whiting, Dover sole (Microstomus pacificus), and sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria) continued to be the top species landed. The ex-vessel value of groundfish landings for 2008 was $19.7 million, 12% higher than in 2007, but still 12% lower than the peak value in 1998. A review of the status of yelloweye rockfish (Sebastes ruberrimus) is also provided in this report. In 2008, commercial landings of California spiny lobster were nearly 335 t and valued at $7.9 million.A recreational report card for lobster was first introduced for the 2008-09 recreational season with nearly 25,000 cards sold at the beginning of the season. Recent investigations by the California Department of Fish and Game (Department) indicate that recreational effort has switched primarily from divers to hoop netting, and that the new rigid hoop nets are more effective at catching lobsters. Commercial 2008 spot prawn landings were 130 t, a 9% increase from 2007. Almost all spot prawns are sold live with one of the highest ex-vessel prices, ranging from $22/kg to $31/kg, resulting in a fishery valued at $3.2 million. Commercial landings of white seabass (Atractoscion nobilis) in 2008 (291 t) increased 41% over 2007, while recreational landings decreased by 11% from 57 t to 51 t in 2008.The combined commercial and recreational catch for 2008 was 342 mt. Disease issues within the hatchery and growout facilities in 2008 reduced hatcheryraised white seabass releases by 71% from 2007. Nearly 200,000 kelp bass (Paralabrax clathratus), one of the most popular species caught by recreational anglers in southern California, were landed in 2008. This is a 15% decline from 2007 and a 19% decline from the ten-year average from 1999 to 2008. Skates and rays are not usually targeted in commercial fisheries, but have been primarily taken as incidental catch by trawlers in California. In 2008, commercial landings for skates totaled 177 t, the highest landings since 2001 and were valued at nearly $97,000.The most common species landed include big (Raja binoculata), California (Raja inornata), and longnose (Raja rhina) skates. Figure Presentation For rays, landings totaled 10.4 t and were valued at nearly $12,000. Bat rays and shovelnose guitarfish accounted for over 70% of ray species landed. Concern over a rapidly expanding recreational fishery for thresher shark (Alopias spp.) led to an evaluation of the current thresher shark management strategies by NMFS and the Department. Although no actions were taken by the Council at the time, several recommendations including a new stock assessment, investigations to better estimate the number and condition of released fish and to determine if gear modifications can increase survival were initiated. Two interesting invertebrate fisheries are also reviewed. An update of the Kellet's whelk (Kelletia kelletii) fishery, first described in the 2006 CalCOFI report, indicates that in 2008, landings (73 t) decreased by 6% from 2007 and 16% from the peak landings in 2006. In contrast, 2008 sea cucumber (Parastichopus spp.) landings (370 t) increased by two thirds over 2007 landings and increased in value by over a million dollars. In 2008, the Commission undertook 10 rule-making actions that addressed marine and anadromous species. The Commission adopted changes to salmon, groundfish, sea urchin, halibut, prawn, shrimp, herring and Dungeness crab regulations and revised commercial permit renewals.The Commission also finalized plans for a series of 24 marine protected areas (153 square miles) in the north-central coast region, defined as State waters between Point Arena (Mendocino County) and Pigeon Point (San Mateo County) under the Marine Life Protection Act.

The Critically Endangered flapper skate (Dipturus intermedius) is the largest skate in the North Atlantic and growth information, necessary to assess key life-history traits, populations’ growth rates and anticipate their response to management measures, is still lacking. While classical age estimation methods used in fish generally require the analysis of calcified structures, destructive methods are incompatible with conservation objectives for this species. Taking advantage of the high recreational value of the flapper skate, this study uses citizen-science data originating from photo-identification of trophy pictures and tag–recapture data supported by anglers to estimate growth in this Critically Endangered species. Using the growth increments measured between recapture events, an individual-based Von Bertalanffy growth model was fitted to the data using Bayesian inference. The results confirm that the flapper skate is a long-lived species with ages estimated as >40 years for the largest individuals captured. Despite this longevity, the model reveals a relatively fast initial growth but relatively late ages at maturity and significant sex-related differences in both growth rate and maximum size. These results suggest that population growth rate, and therefore recovery, might be much slower than previously reported. By using citizen science this study provides the necessary information to begin understanding population dynamics and monitor the recovery of an iconic Critically Endangered species. © 2021 Crown copyright.

Most of the coastal biodiversity is endangered, taking a particular toll on island ecosystems, like the Azores. To better understand the biotic and abiotic factors constraining the distribution and conservation status of two endemic plants, Azorina vidalii (Campanulaceae) and Lotus azoricus (Fabaceae), we performed a global survey of coastal plant communities in the archipelago, also covering environmental descriptors, natural and anthropogenic threats. Moreover, we revised their IUCN conservation status and estimated the population fractions within protected areas. Results: Non-indigenous plants were commonly found in plots with or without the target endemics, contributing to the absence of well-defined coastal plant communities. Nonetheless, indigenous taxa commonly occurred at the plots with L. azoricus. With a larger area of occurrence, A. vidalii ecological niche differed from that of L. azoricus, the latter being restricted to dry and rocky sea cliffs, mostly in Santa Maria Island. Besides the presence of invasive plants, signs of habitat destruction, trampling and grazing, and of natural threats, such as coastal erosion, were commonly observed. Conclusions: Occurrence data indicated an endangered status for both species, although this would change to critically endangered for L. azoricus when using smaller-sized occurrence cells. Both species are threatened since their habitat is restricted to a very narrow vegetation belt, strongly limited by sea influence and human pressure, and with the frequent presence of invasive plants. While focusing on two endemic plants, our study allowed a broader view of the impact of anthropogenic disturbance on Azorean coastal plant communities. © The Author(s) 2024.",,,,1,24,,BMC. Ecol.

Wetlands are highly productive systems that supply a host of ecosystem services and benefits. Nonetheless, wetlands have been drained and filled to provide sites for building houses and roads and for establishing farmland, with an estimated worldwide loss of 64-71% of wetland systems since 1900. In Europe, the Natura 2000 network is the cornerstone of current conservation strategies. Every six years, Member States must report on implementation of the European Habitats Directive. The present study aims to illustrate how Earth observation (EO) technologies can contribute to the reporting obligations of the Habitats Directive and Natura 2000 network in relation to wetland ecosystems. Methods. We analysed the habitat changes that occurred in a protected wetland (in NW Spain), 13 years after its designation as Natura 2000 site (i.e., between 2003 and 2016). For this purpose, we analysed optical multispectral bands and water-related and vegetation indices derived from data acquired by Landsat 7 TM, ETMC and Landsat 8 OLI sensors. To quantify the uncertainty arising from the algorithm used in the classification procedure and its impact on the change analysis, we compared the habitat change estimates obtained using 10 different classification algorithms and two ensemble classification approaches (majority and weighted vote). Results. The habitat maps derived from the ensemble approaches showed an overall accuracy of 94% for the 2003 data (Kappa index of 0.93) and of 95% for the 2016 data (Kappa index of 0.94). The change analysis revealed important temporal dynamics between 2003 and 2016 for the habitat classes identified in the study area. However, these changes depended on the classification algorithm used. The habitat maps obtained from the two ensemble classification approaches showed a reduction in habitat classes dominated by salt marshes and meadows (24.6-26.5%), natural and semi-natural grasslands (25.9-26.5%) or sand dunes (20.7-20.9%) and an increase in forest (31- 34%) and reed bed (60.7-67.2%) in the study area. Discussion. This study illustrates how EO-based approaches might be particularly useful to help (1) managers to reach decisions in relation to conservation, (2) Member States to comply with the requirements of the European Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC), and (3) the European Commission to monitor the conservation status of the natural habitat types of community interest listed in Annex I of the Directive. Nonetheless, the uncertainty arising from the large variety of classification methods used may prevent local managers from basing their decisions on EO data. Our results shed light on how different classification algorithms may provide very different quantitative estimates, especially for water-dependent habitats. Our findings confirm the need to account for this uncertainty by applying ensemble classification approaches, which improve the accuracy and stability of remote sensing image classification. © 2018 Regos and Domínguez.",,,,3,2018,,PeerJ,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: PeerJ Inc.,,,,Article; concept mapping; conservation biology; Conservation European directives; ecosystem; Ensemble classification approach; environmental monitoring; Environmental monitoring; estuary; flooding; geographic information system; habitat; Habitat mapping; Landsat satellite imagery; Protected areas; remote sensing; Remote sensing; sandy soil; satellite imagery; Supervised classification; water and water related phenomena; Water-related indices; wetland; Wetland conservation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Effective spatial management requires a proper understanding of the spatial distribution of target species and the identification of its environmental drivers. Small-scale fisheries, however, often face scarcity and low-quality of data. In these situations, approaches for the prioritization of conservation areas need to deal with scattered, biased, and short-term information and ideally should quantify data- and model-specific uncertainties for a better understanding of the risks related to management interventions. We used a Bayesian hierarchical species distribution modeling approach on annual landing data of the heavily exploited, small-scale, and data-poor fishery of Chwaka Bay (Zanzibar) in the Western Indian Ocean to understand the distribution of the key target species and identify potential areas for conservation. Few commonalities were found in the set of important habitat and environmental drivers among species, but temperature, depth, and seagrass cover affected the spatial distribution of three of the six analyzed species. A comparison of our results with information from ecological studies suggests that our approach predicts the distribution of the analyzed species reasonably well. Furthermore, the two main common areas of high relative abundance identified in our study have been previously suggested by the local fisher as important areas for spatial conservation. By using short-term, catch per unit of effort data in a Bayesian hierarchical framework, we quantify the associated uncertainties while accounting for spatial dependencies. More importantly, the use of accessible and interpretable tools, such as the here created spatial maps, can frame a better understanding of spatio-temporal management for local fishers. Our approach, thus, supports the operability of spatial management in small-scale fisheries suffering from a general lack of long-term fisheries information and fisheries independent data. © Copyright © 2021 Rehren, Pennino, Coll, Jiddawi and Muhando.",,,,,8,,Front.

Specifically: 1) What national institutions has Australia created within the framework provided by the EEZs, 2) What is the interplay between global agreements such as the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (LOSC), the Australian Oceans Policy and regional management plans? These questions are considered in the case of Australias Oceans Policy with some comparison to other countries institutional arrangements. In the past five years Australia, Canada, the US, New Zealand, Pacific Islands, Korea, China, Thailand and other coastal states have either published or initiated work on a national policy for integrated oceans management. The institutional arrangements in each case vary considerably but, notwithstanding the cultural and economic differences among countries implementing oceans policies, there are emerging similarities such as the application of integrated management, ecosystem-based management, sustainable development and precautionary approaches. In 1998, the Australian government released its Oceans Policy (Australian Government, 1998) with a broad agenda of sustainable, multiple-use management of marine resources and the aim of combining both conservation and economic development in an integrated framework. A significant part of the policy included the goal of implementing Regional Marine Plans to ensure natural resources are managed for sustainable use. Specific challenges for implementing integrated oceans management in Australia include (a) integration of fisheries resource management in an ecosystem-based way across all gear types and regions where species are harvested; (b) integration of the designation and management of Marine Protected Areas with fisheries resource management to ensure that both conservation and industrial development goals are achieved; (c) development of adequate knowledge bases to support resource management of ocean ecosystems. The issues of institutional fit, interplay and scale provide a useful framework to assess the performance of EEZs (Young et al, 1999). The emerging issues in policy development outlined for the Australian case show that the large scale of ecosystems within EEZs call for the adjustment of institutional arrangements to fit biophysical systems and industrial structures. This seems to be happening through national cooperation in the Australian case, however the interplay between sectors below the level of the over-arching Oceans Policy are problematic and politically difficult to implement. It is likely to take decades before the success of integrated ocean management within EEZs can be properly evaluated. © 2005 Springer.

Approvability can only be achieved if all reasonable technical and logistic alternatives, which are able to minimize the environmental impact, are exhausted. These principles are illustrated by experiences from 10 years of handling different projects within Germany's largest oil field located within a Wadden sea national park: the laying of two pipelines and two sea power cables, the establishment of extensive scour protection and the preparatory planning for four exploration wells. All projects had to be assessed against the conservation objectives of different regimes: national park, biosphere reserve, nationally protected habitat, European Habitat Directive, European Bird Directive, special species protection and - since 2009 - UNESCO world heritage site. The examples illustrate in which way the technical and logistic concepts were - sometimes radically - changed and adapted to the conservation needs of the area. The main topics to be addressed were: Strict avoidance of any contamination of the environment (zero discharge principle) Avoidance of sensitive periods, Avoidance of raising soil temperature more than two Kelvin, Minimization of area use Extensive monitoring Implementation of compensation measures (revitalization of salt marshes) These examples of good practice show how an environmental optimization of projects can lead to successful application procedures (even confirmed in court cases). Thus it can enable the exploration and production of oil or gas in protected and environmentally highly sensitive areas. In this way environmental impact assessments should not be seen as static evaluations but rather as a process during which a project is adapted and optimized towards approvability.

We conducted a rapid systematic review of 177 studies and an expert opinion survey to identify evidence of the ecological, social and economic outcomes from each type of tool. We used these data to assess the level of confidence in the outcomes delivered by each tool and qualitatively scored how each tool contributes to each target.

We highlight that some tools, including fully and partially protected areas and locally managed marine areas, may make stronger contributions to SDG 14 compared with other tools. We identified gaps in the suitability of these tools to some targets, particularly targets related to pollution and acidification, as well as evidence gaps for social and economic outcomes.

Five themes emerged, reflecting conservation in MSP from weak to strong inclusion: (1) prioritizing economy; (2) ecosystems as limits; (3) social-ecological systems; (4) ecosystems as functional; and (5) ecosystems as fundamental. Our analysis suggests MSP priorities for managing or mitigating impacts and conservation was less apparent, though some plans appear more prepared to integrate conservation. We propose the concept of conservation ready MSP, where plans are designed to integrate conservation in MSP as a way to support sustained ocean use.

However, direct georeferencing of fishing activities using aerial drones is a versatile and easy option that can potentially improve fishery studies, especially in Marine Protected Areas. We investigated the utility of aerial images to understand spatial displacement and fishing territoriality in a Brazilian MPA system under risk of deregulation. Survey flights were conducted in the multiple use area where fishing is allowed in the Fernando de Noronha Archipelago, located in the South Atlantic Ocean and considered one of the main ecotourism destinations and marine conservation sites in Brazil. An aircraft was used to map and detect several aspects of fishing activities and shallow seabed characteristics to demonstrate its utility for fishery management. We recorded 89 fishing activities in the marine area and 75 shore fishers on beaches. Results documented areas most intensively targeted by fishers, and operational aspects of fishing effort, both onboard and shoreline activities targeting shoals. Enforcement and monitoring efforts must be strengthened to assess the impact of expanded fishing activity in this marine sanctuary, mainly due to fading conservation rules imposed by top-down political decisions. This aerial approach demonstrates the utility of quantifying and mapping fishing activities to assist both MPA and fisheries management aligned to benchmarks for biodiversity conservation and human-based demands. © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,745-752,,5,29,,Fish.

MPAs should be ecologically representative to be effective, but in large, remote regions this can be difficult to quantify and assess. We present a novel bioregionalization for the Southern Ocean, which uses the modelled circumpolar habitat importance of 17 marine bird and mammal species. The habitat-use of these predators indicates biodiversity patterns that require representation in Southern Ocean conservation and management planning. In the predator habitat importance predictions, we identified 17 statistical clusters, falling into four larger groups. We characterized and contrasted these clusters based on their predator, prey and oceanographic characteristics. Under the existing Southern Ocean MPA network, some clusters fall short of 10 % representation, yet others meet or exceed these targets. Implementation of currently proposed MPAs can in some cases contribute to meeting even 30 % spatial coverage conservation targets. However, the effectiveness of mixed-use versus no-take MPAs should be taken into consideration, since some clusters are not adequately represented by no-take MPAs. These results, combined with previous studies in the Southern Ocean, can help inform the continued design, implementation, and evaluation of a representative system of MPAs for Southern Ocean conservation and management. © 2022",,,,,272,,Biol.

We examine the potential redistribution of a community of marine predators by comparing current and future habitat distribution projections. We examine relative changes among species, indicative of potential future community-level changes and consider potential consequences of these changes for conservation and management. Location: Southern Indian Ocean. Methods: We used tracking data from 14 species (10 seabirds, 3 seals and 1 cetacean, totalling 538 tracks) to model the habitat selection of predators around the Prince Edward Islands. Using random forest classifiers, we modelled habitat selection as a response to a static environmental covariate and nine dynamic environmental covariates obtained from eight IPCC-class climate models. To project the potential distribution of the predators in 2071–2100, we used climate model outputs assuming two greenhouse gas emission scenarios: RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5. Results: Analogous climates are projected to predominantly shift to the southeast and southwest. Species’ potential range shifts varied in direction and magnitude, but overall shifted slightly to the southwest. Despite the variable shifts among species, current species co-occurrence patterns and future projections were statistically similar. Our projections show that at least some important habitats will shift out of national waters and marine protected areas by 2100, but important habitat area will increase in the Convention on the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources Area. Predicted areas of common use among predators decreased north of the islands and increased to the south, suggesting that multiple predator species may use southerly habitats more intensively in the future. Consequently, Southern Ocean management authorities could implement conservation actions to partially offset these shifts. Main conclusions: Overall, we predict that marine predator biodiversity in the southern Indian Ocean will be redistributed, with ecological, conservation and management implications. © 2021 The Authors.

The Southern Ocean supports large populations of seabirds and marine mammals and is undergoing rapid environmental change. The management and conservation of these predators and their environment relies on understanding their distribution and its link with the biophysical environment, as the latter determines the distribution and abundance of prey. We addressed this issue using tracking data from 14 species of marine predators to identify important habitat. Location: Indian Ocean sector of the Southern Ocean. Methods: We used tracking data from 538 tag deployments made over a decade at the Subantarctic Prince Edward Islands. For each real track, we simulated a set of pseudo-tracks that allowed a presence-availability habitat modelling approach that estimates an animal's habitat preference. Using model ensembles of boosted regression trees and random forests, we modelled these tracks as a response to a set of 17 environmental variables. We combined the resulting species-specific models to evaluate areas of mean importance. Results: Real tracking locations covered 39.75 million km2, up to 7,813 km from the Prince Edward Islands. Areas of high mean importance were located broadly from the Subtropical Zone to the Polar Frontal Zone in summer and from the Subantarctic to Antarctic Zones in winter. Areas of high mean importance were best predicted by factors including wind speed, sea surface temperature, depth and current speed. Main conclusions: The models and predictions developed here identify important habitat of marine predators around the Prince Edward Islands and can support the large-scale conservation and management of Subantarctic ecosystems and the marine predators they sustain. The results also form the basis of future efforts to predict the consequences of environmental change. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,535-550,,4,24,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,abundance; Animalia; areas of ecological significance; data; distribution; distribution models; environmental change; environmental factor; habitat; hotspots; Indian Ocean; Indian Ocean (South); Mammalia; marine mammal; marine mammals; marine protected areas; modeling; polar front; predator; Prince Edward Island [Prince Edward Islands]; Prince Edward Islands; protected area; seabird; seabirds; Southern Ocean; spatial distribution; subtropical region; tracking,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Using the ‘reconstructed’ catch data for 1950 to 2018 made available by the Sea Around Us initiative, we show that the declaration of an exclusive economic zone (EEZ) in 1983 by the U.S.A. and its protection by the U.S. Coast Guard had a much bigger impact on catches around the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands than the subsequent creation of a LSMPA. This is similar to Pitcairn Islands, a UK territory. Trends differed sharply in the Galapagos and New Caledonia, where neither their EEZ declaration nor the LSMPA (by Ecuador in 1988 and by France in 2014) stopped local fisheries from continuous expansion. Our results also demonstrate that in the studied multizone LSMPAs continued local fishing induces a ‘fishing down’ effect wherein the mean trophic level (TL) declined, especially in the Galapagos, by 0.1 TL per decade. Stakeholders’ responses to a short questionnaire and satellite imagery lent support to these results in that they documented substantial fishing operations and ‘fishing the line’ within and around multizone LSMPAs. In the case of EEZs around less populated or unpopulated islands, banning foreign fishing may reduce catch much more than a subsequent LSMPA declaration. This confirms that EEZs are a tool for coastal countries to protect their marine biodiversity and that allowing fishing in an MPA, while politically convenient, may result in ‘paper parks’ within which fishing can cause the same deleterious effects as in wholly unprotected areas. © 2021 by the authors.

But achieving such commitments is challenging, and conservation targets that are reached on paper, e.g., in terms of square kilometers protected, can be misleading. Designating Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) does not guarantee achieving marine conservation goals, and so-called ‘paper parks,’ i.e., MPAs that are legally designated but ineffective, are common. Little is known about the de facto protection status of the established MPAs and no studies or databases have considered local stakeholders’ knowledge. Using a one-question questionnaire, we collected data on local stakeholders’ perceptions of de facto fishing in their MPA from most of the world's maritime countries. While the level of fishing effort was generally perceived to be higher in fully ‘take’ MPAs than in ‘no-take’ or multi-zone MPAs, we show that high levels of fishing also occur in MPAs that are fully protected according to MPAtlas and the IUCN, via a new ‘Paper Park Index’ (PPI), which allowed the identification of 55 likely ‘paper parks,’ i.e., 30 % of our total sample. Most of them are located in the regions of ‘Latin America and the Caribbean’ (31 %), ‘Southeast Asia and Oceania’ (25 %) and ‘Indian Ocean’ (20 %). The 11 MPAs with the highest PPI are listed and 10 of them are shown to have been already identified as not being very protective. These results highlight the importance of different stakeholders’ knowledge about the extent and type of marine protection. They also serve as an invitation to policy-makers, spatial planners, managers and the scientific community to consider local knowledge and encourage the participation of a wider group of stakeholders in policy-making, planning and management of marine spaces. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,151,,Mar.

The combination of satellite multispectral images-acquired from2017 to 2019, together with Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) photomosaic maps, high-resolution multibeam bathymetry/backscatter and underwater photogrammetry data, provided insights on the short-term characterization and distribution of Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile, 1813 meadows in the Calabrian Tyrrhenian Sea. We used a supervised Object-based Image Analysis (OBIA) processing and classification technique to create a high-resolution thematic distribution map of P. oceanica meadows from multibeam bathymetry, backscatter data, drone photogrammetry and multispectral images that can be used as a model for classification of marine and coastal areas. As a part of this work, within the SIC CARLIT project, a field application was carried out in a Site of Community Importance (SCI) on Cirella Island in Calabria (Italy); different multiscale mapping techniques have been performed and integrated: the optical and acoustic data were processed and classified by different OBIA algorithms, i.e., k-Nearest Neighbors' algorithm (k-NN), Random Tree algorithm (RT) and Decision Tree algorithm (DT). These acoustic and optical data combinations were shown to be a reliable tool to obtain high-resolution thematic maps for the preliminary characterization of seagrass habitats.

Our study aimed to evaluate the capacity of TAFS to conserve the floristic diversity of tropical dry forests (TDF) in the Tehuacan-Cuicatlan Valley, Mexico. We compared TAFS and TDF by measuring their forest cover, floristic composition, and structure, in addition to documenting the motivations of people to maintain native vegetation in their agricultural fields. We conducted a restricted randomized sampling of perennial plant species, including nine sites of TAFS and nine of TDF to determine the alpha, beta, and gamma diversity. Furthermore, we conducted semi-structured interviews with peasants who managed the agricultural plots we studied. We also performed workshops with people of the communities where surveys were performed. Our findings show that TAFS can maintain, on average, 68% of the species (95% of them native to the region) and 53% of the abundance of individuals occurring in the adjacent TDF. TAFS harbour 30% (39 species) of plants endemic to Mexico. Total species richness of TDF and TAFS were similar, as well as the effective number of species or communities estimated for the alpha, beta, and gamma diversity, but differed in the abundance of individuals. The high species turnover recorded in TDF (72%) and TAFS (74%) has profound implications for conservation, suggesting that it would be necessary to maintain several sites in order to conserve the regional diversity of native vegetation. Material, non-material, and regulatory contributions were reported to be the reason that peasants take into account maintaining natural vegetation. TAFS associated with TDF in the region (also called ""Apancles"") contain an important richness, diversity, and endemism of components of natural ecosystems, as well as provide multiple socio-ecological contributions. These systems could represent a viable alternative to reconcile biological conservation with social well-being.",,,,11,12,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000543391800263,,,,,,,agroforestry; Apancles; biocultural diversity; biodiversity conservation; BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION; BIOSPHERE RESERVE; ECOREGIONS; FLORISTIC DIVERSITY; LAND; MANAGEMENT; MEXICO; TEHUACAN VALLEY; Tehuacan-Cuicatlan Valley; traditional plant management; tropical dry forest conservation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Spatial conservation units (CUs) for one or more species have been defined using similarities in communities, habitats, and resource management concerns. Additionally, CU boundaries can be informed by population genetic structure. Here, we determined the population structure of the Bobolink (Dolichonyx oryzivorus), a migratory grassland bird. Its breeding range spans longitudinally across most of North America in the northern U.S. and southern Canada, and its population has declined by 59% from 1971 to 2014. We sampled blood from Bobolinks at seven breeding sites and used a ddRAD sequencing approach to identify 3236 SNPs for population genetic analyses. Using the Bayesian clustering approach, STRUCTURE, we found low levels of genetic differentiation across the breeding range. Fst values ranged from 0.002 to 0.036 among all population pairs, and genetic structure followed an isolation by distance model. Despite low levels of genetic differentiation, we found evidence for four genetic groupings—breeding populations in Oregon and British Columbia were distinct from each other as well as from Central and eastern North American breeding populations. Investigating the demographic history of the populations using approximate Bayesian computation, we found evidence that western Bobolink populations are not relict populations but instead were founded during a recent westward range expansion, possibly enabled by agricultural expansion. We identify four genetics-based CUs that may serve as a complementary spatial framework, broader in scale compared to the commonly-used Bird Conservation Regions, for defining and achieving population objectives. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,77-96,,1,31,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,ASYMMETRICAL DISPERSAL; Bobolink; breeding population; British Columbia; Canada; CONNECTIVITY; Conservation genetics; conservation planning; conservation status; demographic history; Demographic history; DIFFERENTIATION; DIVERSITY; Dolichonyx oryzivorus; FRAGMENTATION; GENETIC-STRUCTURE; Oregon; PHILOPATRY; PHYLOGEOGRAPHY; population size; population structure; R-PACKAGE; RAD-seq; Relict population; SOFTWARE; songbird; spatiotemporal analysis; United States,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This has led to the emergence of modelling methods to predict the occurrence of suitable habitat for conservation planning in data-sparse areas. Recent global analyses for cold-water corals predict a high probability of occurrence along the slopes of continental margins, offshore banks and seamounts in the north-eastern Atlantic, but tend to overestimate the extent of the habitat and do not provide the detail needed for finer-scale assessments and protected area planning. Using Lophelia pertusa reefs as an example, this study integrates multibeam bathymetry with a wide range of environmental data to produce a regional high-resolution habitat suitability map relevant for marine spatial planning. Location: Irish continental margin (extended continental shelf claim). Methods: Maximum entropy modelling was used to predict L. pertusa reef distribution at a spatial resolution of 0.002°. Coral occurrences were assembled from public databases, publications and video footage, and filtered for quality. Environmental predictor variables were produced by re-sampling of global oceanographic data sets and a regional ocean circulation model. Multi-scale terrain parameters were computed from multibeam bathymetry. Results: Suitable habitat was predicted on mound features and in canyon areas along a narrow band following the slopes of the Irish continental margin, the Rockall Bank and the Porcupine Bank. Standard deviation of the seabed slope (54%), temperature (28%) and bottom shear stress (9%) were the most important variables to predict coral distribution. Main conclusions: This is the first regional coral habitat suitability modelling study to incorporate full coverage multibeam bathymetry in the deep sea. The use of high-resolution environmental data and quality-controlled distribution data significantly reduces habitat overestimation demonstrated by global-scale analyses and produces detailed maps to support marine protected area network design. The strong response of the corals to local-scale terrain variability highlights the need to protect the seabed from anthropogenic impacts that may reduce its complexity, such as bottom trawling. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,1702-1714,,9,40,,J.

We examine biodiversity, identify immediate anthropogenic threats, discuss critical habitat for the conservation of amphibian diversity and the role of currently protected areas in meeting conservation goals within Morocco, Western Sahara included. The study area harbours 14 amphibian species, eight of which are assigned to the categories of Endangered (Pelobates varaldii), Vulnerable (Salamandra algira, Amietophrynus xeros, and Hoplobatrachus occipitalis) or Near Threatened (Pleurodeles waltl, Alytes maurus, Bufo spinosus, and Barbarophryne brongersmai) using IUCN criteria at the regional level of the study area. Habitat loss and degradation due to conversion of land for agriculture, urbanization, or industry are major threats, but infrastructure for tourism, freshwater pollution by chemicals, introduction of non-native species to aquatic ecosystems (Gambusia holbrooki), pathogens (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis), road-kills, and natural disasters (drought), are also rapidly increasing threats. In addition, consequences from global warming must also be considered. The present Conservation Area Network (CAN) does not include distributional ranges of some amphibian species, and a more complete CAN in Atlantic and desert areas is suggested. The northwestern Atlantic, Rif-Middle Atlas, Central Atlantic, and Tiris regions should be considered priorities for conservation because of amphibian endemism and/or the existence of isolated amphibian populations. © 2014, Basic and Applied Herpetology.

Its global population, estimated at 6700 adult individuals, is declining throughout its distribution range. With less than 150 condors, the Endangered condor population in Ecuador is of conservation concern. This study aimed to analyze the breeding behavior of wild-born Andean Condors in Ecuador. Methods: Between 2009 and 2021, we monitored 22 egg-laying attempts in eight Andean Condor nests, evaluated the parental care of three breeding pairs of condors and recorded the species' interactions with other raptors and mammals during the nestling-rearing season, and examined the breeding success of an Andean Condor pair during a decade of monitoring. Results: Our breeding records indicated that Andean Condor lay eggs throughout the year, and 16 nestlings spent between six and 10 months in the nest before making their first flights. We found differences in the length of time that the parents remain with the nestling, and described agonistic encounters between condors and other raptors and a Spectacled Bear (Tremarctos ornatus) in the condor nesting areas. The breeding success of the monitored condor pair was 0.88 nestlings per clutch, and the female laid an egg on average every 15 months. Conclusion: Considering the small size of the Andean Condor population in Ecuador, studies on the breeding behavior of wild-born condors are a high research priority to assess population trends and prevent extinction. Specifically, we recommend further research on parental care, breeding success, nestling survivorship, and nesting phenology. Implications for Conservation: Beyond the importance of the protected area system, strategic planning of key areas for the maintenance of condor populations in the northern Andes must encompass the evaluation of new potential protected areas that offer direct benefits to these birds. These should include nesting sites in human-dominated landscapes such as rural Andean areas. © The Author(s) 2024.",,,,,17,,Trop. Conserv.

Spatial mismanagement of the Ambon municipal area is one of the causes behind environmental degradation. The objective of this study is to analyze the structure and utilization pattern of the coastal zone of Passo Village and propose an appropriate coastal zone management strategy for Passo Village of Ambon City. The study was conducted between August to October 2020 at the Village of Passo. Data on spatial structure and pattern was gathered through direct observation, interviews, and a close questionnaire distributed to respondents. Secondary data were obtained through a literature review related to the research topic. Spatial structure and pattern utilization data were collected through observation within the spatial coastal zone. The data were then analyzed with ArcGis 10.3 software. Map of spatial structure and pattern of Passo Village obtained was then compared to a basic map, Spatial Detail Plan of Passo, and Ambon Regional Spatial Plan document. Strategic management analysis was done through the SWOT method. The result shows that the spatial structure of Passo Village consists of infrastructure (125.54 ha), transportation and communication lines (1.27 ha). The settlement area coverage of Passo Village occupies about 91.5% of the total spatial structure. The spatial pattern of Passo Village consists of a protected area (85.53 ha) and a cultivation area (165.90 ha). Based on SWOT analysis, seven management strategies were proposed for Passo Village spatial coastal management.  © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,805,,,,,,,,IOP Publishing Ltd,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

However, challenges in observing mobile marine species throughout their migratory pathways can impede the identification of critical habitat, linkages between these habitats and threat-mitigation strategies. This study aimed to gain insight into the long-term residency and movement patterns of the whale shark (Rhincodon typus) and to reveal important habitat in the context of R. typus usage of existing Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). Location: South-eastern Indian Ocean. Methods: Satellite telemetry was used to remotely track the long-term movements of 29 R. typus, and to quantify shark usage of the existing MPA network. From the tracking data and environmental predictors, nonlinear models were developed to predict suitable R. typus habitat throughout the south-eastern Indian Ocean. Results: This study includes the first documented complete return migrations by R. typus to Ningaloo Marine Park, which was found to be an important area for R. typus all year-round. We found that while existing MPAs along Australia's west coast do afford some protection to R. typus, telemetry-based habitat models revealed large areas of suitable habitat not currently protected, particularly along the Western Australian coast, in the Timor Sea, and in Indonesian and international waters. Main conclusions: Animal-borne telemetric devices allowed the gathering of long-term spatial information from the elusive and highly mobile R. typus, revealing the spatial scale of their migration in the south-eastern Indian Ocean. Suitable habitat was predicted to occur inside conservation areas, but our findings indicate that the current MPA network may not sufficiently protect R. typus throughout the year.

Two-mesh bags (0.5 mm vs. 10 mm) were used on the soil surface for 30, 60 and 90 days in all systems (agricultural vs. anthropic forest and forest in conservation unit). Decomposition decreased by a quarter (change in effect size ± -22 to -26%) in the agricultural systems studied compared to forest systems, evidencing the decomposition process as a good ecological indicator. High species richness and plant strata in forest systems increased mass loss compared to agricultural systems. The difference between 10 and 30 years in agricultural systems ranged from 3% (in total decomposition) to 7% (in microbial decomposition), decreasing in systems with 30 years of use. In addition, we realized that forest fragments close to agricultural systems can act as refuges for detritivorous macrofauna and thus help to preserve this ecosystem service in productive areas. © 2023, Universidade Federal de Santa Maria.

Five body structures were analyzed for relative growth and morphological sexual maturity estimation: carapace and abdomen width, propodus length and height, and gonopod length in males. Sexual dimorphism was observed in carapace and propodus shape. Morphological sexual maturity was estimated at 10.12 mm carapace width for males and 10.66 mm carapace width for females. Some variations in morphometric aspects were observed in the analyzed population when compared to other populations of M. forceps inhabiting unprotected areas. Crabs from Alcatrazes may reach larger sizes due to their protected habitat.

Recently, through modern research techniques, we have learned some important aspects of taxonomy, ecology and biology of these animals; those findings revealed the role of sea turtles in their ecosystems, migratory patterns, habitat use and the main population hotspots and conservation units. This book aims to address the current situation on sea turtle research, to provide an overview of the newest tools and techniques for research, but at the same time provide key elements on management of sea turtles and how they can be used for conservation purposes. Through the detailed description of each technique and case studies that this book contains, students, researchers and academics can properly raise their research questions and experimental designs, which consequently enable them to obtain results comparable to those reported in studies from journals of high impact. © 2016 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.

Fisheries actions in MPAs are selected from a diverse array of management tools and implemented under the assumption that they are not deleterious and do not impede conservation efforts. However, proper evaluations are needed to assess the effectiveness of management strategies. We analyzed 7 yr changes in the structure of benthic communities in the MPA in Bahía Independencia, one of the most productive coastal regions worldwide and part of the Humboldt Current upwelling system off Peru. Owing to the high productivity and the limited resource use allowed, we predicted that environmental variability rather than small-scale fishing activities would drive community changes. We found a significant unidirectional change in benthic community structure of the Bahía Independencia that was strongly associated with the continuous extraction of a few benthic species, with little influence of environmental factors. We suggest that the fishing of filter feeding bivalves and crabs is linked to the disturbances to macroalgae and associated fauna and probably to the release of top-down effects, which led to ~43% reduction in biomass of the whole benthic community. Our findings indicate that establishing MPAs and implementing standard fisheries management strategies in this productive coastal area may not be enough to guarantee the conservation and sustainable use of their resources. Managers should be able to implement site-specific management actions that take into account the full array of interactions between humans, biological communities and particularities of the physical setting. © Inter-Research 2016.",,65-75,,,557,,Mar.

The research area comprises part of the NATURA 2000 network which was predominantly established here for these dolphins. Official data regarding the local population's status in the region are currently marked as deficient. Thus, the aim of the present study was to provide the first population data for the area. Boat-based survey work was carried out from April to September 2012-2015 using a mark-recapture photo-identification method. Prior to this period a random data collection was used to study distribution, since 2001, to cover the area of 927 km2 lying between Umag to lighthouse AlbaneŽ in the south. 143 bottlenose dolphins were photo-identified to date with the average group size of 9.27 ± 6.53 animals. Several abundance models were used, from which the Markovian robust model proved the best fit and predicted between 47-142 dolphins along the west Istria coast. A few individuals were also identified in Slovenia, indicating a bigger home range along the 98 km length of the studied area. There is an indication of a regular year round presence of dolphins. The west Istria coast constitutes an important feeding and breeding ground. The region should develop a sustainable plan to manage those human activities negatively impacting the dolphins. Therefore the present study is of relevance for the implementation of management directives for their conservation.

Traditional impact evaluation methods used in environmental sciences tend to compare protected and control areas that differ in several characteristics, thereby hampering the attribution of causality such as lower rates of deforestation occurring as consequence of protection. To overcome this problem, counterfactual methods have been developed to improve impact evaluation in environmental sciences, including studies that aim to measure the effects of protected areas in avoiding deforestation. The goal of counterfactual methods is achieved by identification of carefully selected and comparable control areas. Here, we report on a systematic review to evaluate whether estimates about the effectiveness of protected area differ between traditional and counterfactual impact evaluation methods. We found that estimates from traditional methods of avoided deforestation due to the establishment of protected areas were generally higher than those from counterfactual methods. However, estimates based on traditional linear models and multivariate ordinations were similar to those obtained by counterfactual methods. Although rarely used, linear methods and ordinations appear promising as parts of the impact evaluation toolbox, although their limitations need to be better understood.",,,,,246,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000536149100002,,,,,,,ADJUSTMENTS; Biodiversity conservation; CONSERVATION; Counterfactual thinking; DEFORESTATION; Environmental policy; FOREST; HABITAT LOSS; INFERENCE; MARINE RESERVES; MATCHING ESTIMATORS; Matching method; Protected area; SPILLOVER; Systematic review; TRENDS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In the present work, a combination of different datasets and underwater surveys was used to produce the first habitat map of the Natural Marine Park of Cabo Girăo, which is also the first habitat map for Madeira island. Five major habitats were identified, including two previously unknown for Madeira — Avrainvillea canariensis meadows and maërl beds. 132 marine taxa (macroflora, macrofauna and fishes) were identified, including 18 commercially important species and three vulnerable fish species. The results show that the methods used are useful to produce reliable information with limited resources.

The most visible innovation was the direct link, established by Art. 11, between the fisheries management and the achievement of the goals set forth by the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (2008/56/EC) and Directives under which the Natura 2000 network was being developed (92/43/EEC and 2009/147/EC). Article 11 is clearly focused on marine protected areas, but the exact relation between this article and other legal bases raises problems of interpretation. In fact, the concern with the protection of the ecosystems is also foreseen in several provisions of EU Regulation No. 1380/2013 (e.g., Arts. 19 and 20). When comparing all legal bases, we come to the conclusion that the Regulation clearly distinguishes the powers of the coastal Member State depending on whether fishing vessels fly its flag or not. Nonetheless, the legal solutions are not always identical, that is, the decision-making process changes from one article to another. The first goal is, therefore, to analyze the purpose of each legal basis, to determine their interrelation, and to discuss the order of their application by a coastal Member State in a concrete situation. As a second goal, the balance between the exclusive competence for the conservation of fisheries resources and the shared competence for the protection of biodiversity of the European Union will be addressed. As a matter of fact, under European Union legislation, Member States have the duty to designate marine protected areas and to achieve a good environmental status (shared competence). Accordingly, Member States have also the duty to approve the necessary management measures. Fisheries are very often one of the human activities envisaged by the management measures, given the need for restricting or prohibiting fisheries in order to ensure the protection of the ecosystems and/or species. The question is to assess whether EU Regulation No. 1380/2013 facilitates or hinders the action of the Member States in the fulfillment of their duties. Throughout the chapter, several hermeneutic proposals will be formulated in order to ensure a more effective protection of marine biodiversity under EU Regulation No. 1380/2013, without putting in jeopardy the essence of the shared competence.

The objectives of this paper are: to estimate the sex ratio in every season from the temperature and the incubation period for the beaches analyzed, to evaluate the influence of the vegetation in the distribution of the nests and the embryonic development, to correlate the geomorphologic changes due to tropical storms in the Guanahacabibes peninsula with the reproductive success of the sea turtles and to document the impact generated by the accumulation of sargassum in the conduct and the reproductive success of the sea turtles. Methods: They were analyzed 21 sea turtle nesting seasons in the Guanahacabibes Peninsula. Results: It was observed an annual variation in the number of emergencies and nests per female with a well-defined biennial cycle. It was recorded a reduction in clutch size, incubation period and hatchling size. It was also estimated a higher production of females, as a consequence of the high incubation temperatures. In addition, they were monitored the dynamics of the beaches, finding important changes in the distribution and characteristics of the coastal vegetation as a result of meteorological events. They were determined areas vulnerable to coastal flooding and the impact of massive sargassum bursts. Conclusions: the evidence collected constitutes an alert for protected area managers in order to take measures aimed at mitigating the effects on the successful reproduction of sea turtles of high temperatures, meteorological events and other natural phenomena, such as sargassum bursts in the Cuban archipelago. Likewise, these results are an experience for other nesting areas in the Greater Caribbean region where they are exposed to similar threats. © Los autores, 2023.",,,,2,13,,An. Acad. Cienc.

Community-based conservation (CBC) – which is underpinned by local community participation, knowledge and priorities – offers a viable alternative in certain contexts. We explore the applicability of established ‘commons’ design principles, and factors enabling community-based conservation, to community-based coastal and marine conservation initiatives in South Africa. An extensive review of relevant South African literature, complemented by interviews conducted with diverse conservation actors, operating within wildlife, forestry and coastal and marine contexts in the country, identified common social and institutional ‘constraints’ and ‘enablers’ that affected these conservation initiatives. Key constraints include slow and complex institutional processes (particularly associated with land restitution in protected areas), a lack of political will and limited local community participation in planning and decision-making, all of which affect required collaboration. Key enablers include greater understanding and alignment of initiatives with social and ecological contexts and priorities, formalized and improved community participation, and increased partner support, as well as the presence of local champions to inform, motivate, and facilitate the implementation and management of CBC initiatives. While the objective is to provide an updated list of ‘enablers’ informing the South African coastal and marine CBC context, insights gained should be relevant to other national sectors, as well as regional and global conservation actors attempting to translate ‘people-centred’ conservation policies into practice, particularly those fulfilling obligations to the Convention on Biological Diversity's Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework. © 2021 The Author(s)",,,,,261,,Biol.

Location: Argentina, Belize, Botswana, Canada, Indonesia, Iran, Madagascar, Nepal, Norway, Senegal, South Africa, and the U.S.A. Methods: We gathered camera trap data, totalling > 100,000 trap nights, from across five continents. To analyse local and species-specific responses to anthropogenic and environmental variables, we fitted multispecies occurrence models to each study area. To analyse global-level responses, we then fitted a multispecies, multi-area occurrence model. Results: We recorded 4,805 detections of 96 mammalian carnivore species photographed across 1,714 camera stations located in 12 countries. At the global level, our models revealed that carnivore richness and occupancy within study areas was positively associated with prey availability. Occupancy within study areas also tended to increase with greater protection and greater distances to roads. The strength of these relationships, however, differed among countries. Main conclusions: We developed a research framework for leveraging global camera trap data to evaluate patterns of mammalian carnivore occurrence and richness across multiple spatial scales. Our research highlights the importance of intact prey populations and protected areas in conserving carnivore communities. Our research also highlights the potential of camera traps for monitoring wildlife communities and provides a case study for how this can be achieved on a global scale. We encourage greater integration and standardization among camera trap studies worldwide, which would help inform effective conservation planning for wildlife populations both locally and globally. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,918-929,,8,26,,Global Ecol.

Yet, while these mega-reserves have collectively made a major contribution toward meeting global targets for marine conservation, their effectiveness for the protection of highly mobile, pelagic species remains largely unknown. This study reports on the spatial behavior and reproductive status of yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) inhabiting a proposed LSMPA around Ascension Island (tropical Atlantic), with the aim of evaluating the conservation benefits for this economically important species. Using a combination of satellite archival tags and conventional mark–recapture it was shown that individual tuna can remain within Ascension Island waters for periods of between 100 and 200 days, with core residency areas (50% “utilization distributions”) generally extending <200 km from shore. The vast majority of activity occurred within 92.6 km (50 nmi) of the island and coincided with a “no-take zone” established around the island in 2016. However, dispersive movements out of this zone were observed in some satellite-tagged individuals, possibly marking the beginning of more extensive oceanic migrations. Gonad staging of 342 individuals sampled over a 32 month period found no evidence of reproductively active (ripe) individuals, strongly suggesting that tuna foraging around Ascension Island migrate elsewhere to breed. Study results provide further evidence of the importance of oceanic islands as residency areas for pelagic megafauna, helping to justify their inclusion within LSMPAs. In the absence of local recruitment, however, these individuals will remain susceptible to exploitation on spawning grounds located outside of reserves, ultimately limiting their effectiveness and thus calling for further research to identify and protect the areas where species are most vulnerable. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,1308-1316,,6,28,,Aquatic Conserv.

Systematic reserve-selection tools allow simultaneous optimization for ecological objectives while minimizing costs but are seldom used to incorporate socioeconomic costs in the reserve-design process. The sensitivity of this process to biodiversity data resolution has been studied widely but the issue of socioeconomic data resolution has not previously been considered. We therefore designed marine reserves for biodiversity conservation with the constraint of minimizing commercial fishing revenue losses and investigated how economic data resolution affected the results. Incorporating coarse-resolution economic data from official statistics generated reserves that were only marginally less costly to the fishery than those designed with no attempt to minimize economic impacts. An intensive survey yielded fine-resolution data that, when incorporated in the design process, substantially reduced predicted fishery losses. Such an approach could help minimize fisher displacement because the least profitable grounds are selected for the reserve. Other work has shown that low-resolution biodiversity data can lead to underestimation of the conservation value of some sites, and a risk of overlooking the most valuable areas, and we have similarly shown that low-resolution economic data can cause underestimation of the profitability of some sites and a risk of inadvertently including these in the reserve. Detailed socioeconomic data are therefore an essential input for the design of cost-effective reserve networks. ©2006 Society for Conservation Biology.",,1191-1202,,4,20,,Conserv.

As a result, it is important to examine the socioeconomic consequences of MPAs and how they may affect nearby communities. This study explores social and equity issues surrounding the designation of the Marianas Trench Marine National Monument, an MPA that includes protections around the three most northern islands in the US territory of the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas Islands (CNMI). We gathered oral history interviews with 40 individuals from CMNI and Guam who had connections to the waters in the newly-designated MPA and reviewed key documents in order to (1) document historical and current use of the waters in the MPA and (2) consider the implications that proposed fishing regulations in the MPA may have for the local communities. Our study documented 129 trips to visit the waters in the MPA in living memory. We found that due to distance, trips to the MPA waters were rare but culturally significant events that provided residents from CNMI and Guam with connections to their indigenous roots. Regulation of fishing in the new MPA has the potential to directly and indirectly restrict local access to these culturally important waters. This research highlights the importance of better collaboration with local partners and better consideration of social and equity concerns in the siting and regulation of MPAs. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

Connected networks of individual marine protected areas enhance system-wide resilience and persistence via the exchange of individuals, supporting greater population sizes and functional genetic diversity. Conservation area networks are typically designed with a systematic spatial planning process. New perspectives and emerging methods enable the long-standing goal to incorporate connectivity as a conservation feature with the aim of maximizing larval flow within the network. Additionally, there is growing recognition that protected area networks that support adaptive evolutionary change make the long-term survival of coral reefs more likely. Genetic data and evolutionary principles can feed into the planning process by providing measures of dispersal connectivity and adaptation potential. Here, we review genetic and genomic approaches to estimate dispersal connectivity and the geography of adaptation for corals. We outline key conservation objectives that can be informed by genetic data, propose surrogates for connectivity and adaptation features, and recommend future pathways to improve the uptake of genetic information for reef conservation such that management actions that prioritize connectivity and adaptation can be realized. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2022.",,Jul-33,,,15,,,,,,,,Springer Nature,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Coral.

This is due to intensive agriculture, and construction for residential, tourism and industrial uses. The present work investigates the idea of using a landscape project in the Gulf of Gela in South Sicily to recover the dunes and the area behind them. The method used is based on the literature and will evaluate and interpret the dynamics of the landscape, so as to draw up a landscape plan, which can be used to help sustain the assets of the area, in a way, which is compatible with conserving nature. This method was tested in the LIFE11-Leopoldia project, funded by the European Union. The results of the study form part of the landscape project. This project is aimed at connecting the different productive zones in the area, protecting the natural environments and the rural historical patrimony, through combining the modern road networks with the older slower, historic infrastructure. Three different levels of landscape management are proposed: total protection (the dunes), high-level protection (the area behind the dunes where traditional agriculture is practised, buffer areas and ecological connecting areas), medium levels of protection (sustainable agriculture, green connections and ecological corridors). The key aims of the project are asl follows: transversality - repairing the agricultural fabric and the relationship between the land and the sea; sustainability - recovering the environmental system and traditional activities; flexibility - agriculture with only minor environmental impact. © L.

Ornithology has made a major contribution to nature conservation by virtue of this popular support. The value of birds as environmental indicators has been greatly enhanced by voluntary data collection on a wide scale over many years. Habitat loss and degradation are the main causes of species decline, even though other factors may contribute to extinction. More research should address the causes of decline at an early stage, while the chance of recovery is highest. The geographical ranges of native bird species should be maintained, both to avoid the risk of local or wider extinction and to enable people to enjoy them as part of their normal experience. To maintain species ranges. conservation must be incorporated in policies affecting the wider countryside and the sea. This is as important as managing protected areas. The management of protected areas can only be successful in the context of sympathetic management of the surrounding countryside. The Biodiversity Convention requires countries to produce national conservation plans and strategies. This offers ornithologists an unprecedented opportunity to contribute to conservation by developing explicit objectives and specific targets for the maintenance (or restoration) of numbers and distributions of species, and of extent and quality of habitats. Targets should be ambitious but realistic and be sufficiently precise as to be testable. Predictive models have the potential to support conservation advice, but traditional natural history studies have proved vital in the past and theory could not replace them. Detailed ecological research with long data runs is the ideal basis for conservation action. But urgency demands shorter studies, informed by ecological intuition and knowledge, and reaching specific recommendations for action. Conservation actions should be treated as experiments so that techniques can be improved progressively. This applies both to the management of nature reserves and to habitat management stemming from broader policy measures, for example in Environmentally Sensitive Areas. Monitoring across a wide species base is essential because the threats to wildlife are unpredictable. Birds have proven to be successful indicators because they are highly visible: are enthusiastically counted by volunteers: and respond to a wide variety of environmental impacts. Threshold levels, indicating the normal upper and lower levels of variation (for instance in numbers or breeding success), are needed in order to trigger prompt remedial action. Monitoring, research and consenration action must be taken forward internationally. Integrated and common approaches enable exchange of data and inforniation. and reinforce national actions across the range. Fxisting data need to be made more accessible by greater collaboration and openness, and by the use of computerization. Ornithologists need to build stronger partnerships, both with other biologists and with decision?makers across the range of land?use and economic policy. This will be helped by better communication built on clear but simple messages for non?biologists. The training of future ecologists should take account of the wide range of skills required by the expanding discipline of conservation. Copyright © 1994, Wiley Blackwell.

Previous studies have found that the taxonomy of this genus, as well as that of R. quelen, remains controversial. The present study aims to contribute to the understanding of Rhamdia systematics by delimiting putative species, and to elucidate the pattern of genetic differentiation of Rhamdia at different geographic levels within the cis-andean region. Species boundaries were defined by Generalized Mixed Yule Coalescent and Automatic Barcode Gap Discovery methods, and by phylogenetic analyses of cytochrome b (cyt b) sequences. Moreover, we performed phylogeographic analyses based on cyt b sequences and microsatellite markers. Patterns of differentiation were analyzed at three nested geographic levels: in the main cis-andean basins (macrogeographic scale); in the second major Neotropical basin system (mesogeographic scale), which encompasses La Plata basin, Patos-Merin basin, and the coastal lagoons draining to SW Atlantic Ocean; and finally, in the three most important coastal lagoons for artisanal fisheries in Uruguay (microgeographic scale). Sixteen species were found within Rhamdia, divided into two clades (cis- and trans-andean clades), each composed of eight putative species. Cis-andean Rhamdia species have probably diverged due to vicariance events occurring between and within basins since late Miocene-Pleistocene. Microgeographic scale analysis based on cyt b and microsatellite data revealed a high genetic structuring among the studied coastal lagoons. Mitochondrial and microsatellite markers enabled to identify three different populations, corresponding to the three coastal lagoons analyzed, which would have diverged recently and could be considered as different Management Units. © 2017, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,1047-1067,,9,100,,Environ.

A total of 37 samples were collected. A high diversity of sediment between locations was detected according to the Udden-Wentworth classification and locations were clustered into two main groups according to the predominance of different particle size fractions. The identification of MPs was carried out according to the sediment particle size classification. A total of 1431 MPs and a mean value (± SD) of 314.53 ± 409.94 items kg?1 D.W. were identified, and 70% of the particles were fibers. Statistically higher abundances of MPs were found in sediments collected from sandy habitats, with a mean value of 630.80 ± 636.87 items kg?1 D.W., compared to the abundances of MPs found in locations with different predominant seafloor habitats, that ranged from 136.79 ± 156.33 items kg?1 D.W. in habitats with similar predominance of seagrass and sand to 223.02 ± 113.35 items kg?1 D.W. in habitats with similar predominance of rocks and sand.

Despite the increase in public investment in conservation easement acquisitions, little is known about their conservation outcomes, particularly at a landscape scale. The nine-county San Francisco Bay Area exemplifies a complex conservation context: 190 organizations hold 24% of the land base in some type of protection status. Using a detailed protected lands database, we compared the contributions of conservation easements and fee-simple protected areas to ecological, agricultural, and public recreation benefits. We found that conservation easements were more likely to conserve grasslands, oak woodlands, and agricultural land, whereas fee-simple properties were more likely to conserve chaparral and scrub, redwoods, and urban areas. Conservation easements contributed to open space connectivity but were unlikely to be integrated into local land-use plans or provide public recreation. In particular, properties held by land trusts were less likely to allow for public recreation than were public lands. Conservation easements held by land trusts and special districts complemented fee-simple lands and provided greater conservation of some ecological communities and agricultural lands than fee-simple properties. Spatial databases of protected areas that include conservation easements are necessary for conservation planning and assessment. Copyright © 2008 by the author(s).",,,,1,13,,Ecol.

In Australia, bile salts have recently replaced sodium bisulfate as the chemical used to inject, and thereby quickly and efficiently kill, individual sea stars. This study reports on results of experimental studies conducted prior operationalizing bile salts for widespread use on Australia's Great Barrier Reef, both to optimize doses of bile salts and further examine potential side-effects of administering low doses of bile salts into individual sea stars when found at high concentrations. This study showed that injecting A.planci with 10mL of 8gl-1 Bile Salts No. 3 or 12gl-1 of Oxgall solution into the base of the arm with a new gun adapted with a 16 Gauge x1/2"" needle is the most rapid and effective way to kill individual A.planci, which were up to 42cm in diameter. No immediate flow-on effects on reef fish, corals, and other benthic invertebrates were observed in laboratory experiments and field surveys. Efficient control measures using bile derivatives can offer immediate relief from ongoing COTS predation, and when done in conjunction with improved land use practices that reduce nutrient input and establishment of protected areas to protect predator species, can offer benefits for the resilience of reef ecosystems. © 2014.",,383-390,,PA,102,,Ocean Coast.

In terms of tourism, geoparks have a strong differentiating factor, given their scarcity, rarity, and/or exceptional nature. However, tourism in geoparks demands an extensive knowledge of the demand (geotourists), since this knowledge is vital for the design of development, promotion, and commercialization strategies.

For this, sociodemographic explanatory variables (gender, age), travel characteristics (type of travel group, lodging), and destination assessment (lodging, dining, service companies, natural conservation) characteristics are considered.

Research shows that the most effective MPAs are large, well enforced, no-take, and designed as part of a network. Canada's Pacific MPAs, designated site-by-site, cover approximately 3% of Canadian Pacific waters. We investigated how these MPAs could effectively contribute to Canada's national network by analyzing the implementation of management intent through the application of fisheries closures and conducting a preliminary assessment of their size and spacing relative to scientific guidelines. Fisheries closures outside of MPAs were similarly assessed. Results showed that 90% of existing MPAs were intended to exclude commercial fishing, yet only 2.5% fully or partially met this goal, therefore management intent was not achieved. Further, existing MPAs were small, 75% less than 10 km2 in size, but were reasonably spaced, from one to 50 km apart. While a suite of fisheries closures may be better suited to effectively contribute to a network than MPAs without fisheries closures, they would require permanent designations and management plans to meet network inclusion criteria. © 2015, Copyright © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.",,253-269,,3,43,,Coast.

The success of pioneer restoration actions in France during the 1970s stimulated similar initiatives across the Mediterranean Sea. Early attempts in the Ligurian Sea were implemented in 1993 and 1996 on limited seabed areas (i.e., tens of square meters) at the two coastal sites of Sori and Rapallo (Liguria, NW Italy). No further initiatives have been reported for the Ligurian Sea until 2022. In that year, a large-scale restoration project, which uses biodegradable mats coupled with metal mesh, began in Liguria. Different levels of anthropogenic pressure and wave exposure characterize the three investigated locations: (1) Portofino, on the eastern Liguria and on the border with the Portofino Marine Protected Area; (2) Bergeggi in the central Liguria and within the Isola di Bergeggi Marine Protected Area; and (3) Sanremo in the western Liguria, without any formal protection. Despite recent setbacks caused by severe storms in late 2023, which particularly damaged the Portofino site, ongoing monitoring revealed promising survival rates. Most notably, the site in Bergeggi displayed a 90% survival rate in September 2023. Although challenges to restore P. oceanica beds persist, such as mitigating damages caused by unpredictable events, this extensive re-implantation initiative offers the opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of new basin-scale restoration strategies.

However, the magnitude and spatial patterns of megafauna by-catch are still poorly understood, especially in regions with very limited monitoring and expanding fisheries. The Indian Ocean is a globally important region for megafauna biodiversity and for tuna fisheries, but has limited by-catch data. Anecdotal and scattered information indicates high by-catch could be a major threat. Here, we adapt a Productivity Susceptibility Analysis tool designed for data-poor contexts to present the first spatially explicit estimates of by-catch risk of sea turtles, elasmobranchs, and cetaceans in the three major tuna fishing gears (purse seines, longlines, and drift gill nets). Our assessment highlights a potential opportunity for multi-taxa conservation benefits by concentrating management efforts in particular coastal regions. Most coastal waters in the northern Indian Ocean, including countries that have had a minimal engagement with regional management bodies, stand out as high risk for fisheries interactions. In addition to species known to occur in tuna gears, we find high vulnerability to multiple gear types for many poorly known elasmobranchs that do not fall under any existing conservation and management measures. Our results indicate that current by-catch mitigation measures, which focus on safe-release practices, are unlikely to adequately reduce the substantial cumulative fishing impacts on vulnerable species. Preventative solutions that reduce interactions with non-target species (such as closed areas or seasons, or modifications to gear and fishing tactics) are crucial for alleviating risks to megafauna from fisheries. © 2022 The Authors.

Pelagic ecosystem protection is usually incidental because these ecosystems are often data-poor and are difficult to visualize in a planning context. Pelagic ecosystems, however, face increasing and cumulative impacts from threats such as overfishing and climate change, and a precautionary approach is required to protect both known and unknown biodiversity patterns and ecosystem processes. Data-driven pelagic habitat classifications are important when planning for habitat protection in the absence of sufficient in-situ data. In this study, we describe a method for creating a bioregional map of the upper-mixed layer of South Africa's pelagic realm. We selected relevant variables and parameters that best reflect key ecosystem properties at broad, meso, and local scales. We conducted a hierarchal cluster analysis using open-access sea surface temperature (SST), chlorophyll-a (chl-a), net primary productivity (NPP), mean sea level anomalies (MSLA), and seabed slope and depth data. The resulting map delineates three bioregions subdivided into seven biozones and sixteen pelagic habitats within South Africa's continental Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). This habitat map was incorporated into SCP of a proposed expanded MPA network that includes offshore protected areas and meets National objectives. The proposed network will increase protection of the pelagic realm (>30 m depth) of the EEZ from 0.002% to 6.0%. We contend that bioregional analyses based on publicly available remote-sensing data are useful for identification of offshore habitats, especially when robust biological data are unavailable, as a framework for ecosystem reporting, and for inclusion in a systematic design for a representative offshore MPA network. Further research should focus on modelling and mapping the permanence of pelagic habitats and different spatio-temporal scales of variability, validating habitat boundaries with biological data, and understanding the threats and efficacy of achieving pelagic protection through management mechanisms like MPAs. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,214-230,,,148,,Ocean Coast.

Nevertheless, numerous studies from many habitats and places around the world indicate that fully protected reserves (areas closed to all fishing) have shown clear benefits, at least within their boundaries. This evidence suggests that reserves will work in most areas they are placed. Many people are uncomfortable with this haphazard approach and worry that we should be looking to science to help optimize placement. Here I examine some of the key factors affecting reserve performance and ways they might influence our approach to locating reserves. Habitat quality, intensity of exploitation around reserves, area and proximity of other reserves, protected species' life history and dispersal characteristics, and boundary porosity all affect how reserves perform. Any reserve we create will involve trade-offs among different objectives. For relatively sedentary species, precise reserve placement appears relatively unimportant to performance, but for migratory species, much more precise placement will be necessary to encompass migration bottleneck and nursery areas. Two nonbiological factors are of overriding importance to performance. Fully protected reserves will achieve much more than those that allow limited take, and well-enforced reserves will be much more effective than poorly enforced ones. Rather than seeking to optimize placement of individual reserves, we should construct networks of interacting reserves as a bet-hedging strategy against variability and uncertainty in the marine ecological processes, and resource-management policies, that affect reserve performance. Opportunism, informed by science, can achieve a great deal. The risk is much greater that we will fail to achieve our management objectives if we delay in order to embark upon lengthy studies than if we begin establishing reserves today on the basis of what we already know.",,581-592,,,66,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 3 Journal Abbreviation: Bull.

However, designation of reserves has been largely opportunistic, or protective measures have been implemented (often overlapping and sometimes in conflict) by different entities seeking to achieve different ends. This has created confusion among both users and enforcers, and the proliferation of different measures provides a false sense of protection where little is offered. This paper sets out a procedure grounded in current understanding of ecological processes, that allows the evaluation and selection of reserve sites in order to develop functional, interconnected networks of fully protected reserves that will fulfill multiple objectives. By fully protected we mean permanently closed to fishing and other resource extraction. We provide a framework that unifies the central aims of conservation and fishery management, while also meeting other human needs such as the provision of ecosystem services (e.g., maintenance of coastal water quality, shoreline protection, and recreational opportunities). In our scheme, candidate sites for reserves are evaluated against 12 criteria focused toward sustaining the biological integrity and productivity of marine systems at both local and regional scales. While a limited number of sites will be indispensable in a network, many will be of similar value as reserves, allowing the design of numerous alternative, biologically adequate networks. Devising multiple network designs will help ensure that ecological functionality is preserved throughout the socioeconomic evaluation process. Too often, socioeconomic criteria have dominated the process of reserve selection, potentially undermining their efficacy. We argue that application of biological criteria must precede and inform socioeconomic evaluation, since maintenance of ecosystem functioning is essential for meeting all of the goals for reserves. It is critical that stakeholders are fully involved throughout this process. Application of the proposed criteria will lead to networks whose multifunctionality will help unite the objectives of different management entities, so accelerating progress toward improved stewardship of the oceans.",,S215-S228,,1 SUPPL.,13,,Ecol.

They are designed to maintain stocks of commercially important species above target levels. However, their limitations are evident from continuing declines in fish stocks throughout the world. We make the case that to reverse fishery declines, safeguard marine life and sustain ecosystem processes, extensive marine reserves that are off limits to fishing must become part of the management strategy. Marine reserves should be incorporated into modern fishery management because they can achieve many things that conventional tools cannot. Only complete and permanent protection from fishing can protect the most sensitive habitats and vulnerable species. Only reserves will allow the development of natural, extended age structures of target species, maintain their genetic variability and prevent deleterious evolutionary change from the effects of fishing. Species with natural age structures will sustain higher rates of reproduction and will be more resilient to environmental variability. Higher stock levels maintained by reserves will provide insurance against management failure, including risk-prone quota setting, provided the broader conservation role of reserves is firmly established and legislatively protected.

Our primary objective was to characterise movements among transects within sites, but we opportunistically recorded two between-site movements as well. Our recapture rate was low (22 of 485 marked fish), but most recaptured fish exhibited movements between tagging and recapture, relocating either to another transect within a site (12 fish) or to another site altogether (two fish). Within sites, Roanoke logperch exhibited fidelity over time to the areas in which they were initially marked. These restricted areas were lengthier than transects (>15 m) but shorter than entire riffle-runs (<150 m). The two between-site movements were extensive (3.2 and 2.5 km), observed over a long mark-recapture interval (2 and 5 years, respectively), and may have represented migratory or dispersal movements. Their detection required an unusually extensive study design. Both small- and large-scale movements fulfil important ecological functions for Roanoke logperch, and greater study of such movements in this and other darter species is needed to inform conservation choices. © 2007 The Authors.",,374-381,,3,17,,Ecol.

Although the area protected in MPAs is growing, the movement of individuals (or larvae) among MPAs, termed connectivity, has only recently been included as an objective of many MPAs. As such, assessing connectivity is often neglected or oversimplified in the planning process. For promoting population persistence, it is important to ensure that protected areas in a system are functionally connected through dispersal or adult movement. We devised a multi-species model of larval dispersal for the Australian marine environment to evaluate how much local scale connectivity is protected in MPAs and determine whether the extensive system of MPAs truly functions as a network. We focused on non-migratory species with simplified larval behaviors (i.e., passive larval dispersal) (e.g., no explicit vertical migration) as an illustration. Of all the MPAs analyzed (approximately 2.7 million km2), outside the Great Barrier Reef and Ningaloo Reef, <50% of MPAs (46-80% of total MPA area depending on the species considered) were functionally connected. Our results suggest that Australia's MPA system cannot be referred to as a single network, but rather a collection of numerous smaller networks delineated by natural breaks in the connectivity of reef habitat. Depending on the dispersal capacity of the taxa of interest, there may be between 25 and 47 individual ecological networks distributed across the Australian marine environment. The need to first assess the underlying natural connectivity of a study system prior to implementing new MPAs represents a key research priority for strategically enlarging MPA networks. Our findings highlight the benefits of integrating multi-species connectivity into conservation planning to identify opportunities to better incorporate connectivity into the design of MPA systems and thus to increase their capacity to support long-term, sustainable biodiversity outcomes. © 2020 The Authors.

Systematic conservation planning to fill gaps in marine protection requires sufficient knowledge of both the distribution of biodiversity and the threats to species and ecosystems. Yet such data are lacking for much of the marine environment, creating significant challenges for planning effective marine protection. In the absence of habitat mapping data, critical environmental variables associated with species' distributions can be used to model the spatial distribution of different environments. Although this approach has been used in some jurisdictions to assist MPA planners, the increased availability and resolution of spatial data now provide an opportunity to improve assessments of MPA representation. Capitalizing on advances in spatial data, this study uses a range of biological and physical environmental attributes to model the distribution of Australian marine environments. Given many Australian MPAs were implemented without knowledge of the distribution of species and benthic habitats, this Bio-physical model is used to assess MPA coverage and equality of protection for Australian marine environments. Results of the Bio-physical model revealed that Australian MPAs overrepresent warm, offshore waters (such as the Coral Sea) and underrepresent temperate environments. Furthermore, the distribution of protection in Australian MPAs is heavily skewed, with no-take protection disproportionately targeting tropical environments, leaving major gaps in the protection of both temperate and nearshore habitats. Without comprehensive habitat mapping, the representativeness and adequacy of an MPA system cannot be accurately evaluated, nor can the required expansion of MPAs be planned effectively. In the interim, the biological and physical attributes chosen for this model provide useful proxies to assist in efforts to better target current and future protection based on the most up-to-date knowledge. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,499-510,,3,29,,Aquatic Conserv.

Targets for marine protection under the Convention on Biological Diversity have seen rapid growth in MPAs globally, with progress judged using targets for total area protected rather than evaluating growth based on the capacity to protect biodiversity. The value of a MPA network to biodiversity conservation depends on a range of attributes of both individual MPAs and portfolios of MPAs, which are not captured by simple area-based targets. Therefore, a clear and efficient set of metrics are needed to effectively evaluate progress towards building MPA networks, considering the representation and adequacy of protection for biodiversity. We developed a universally applicable set of metrics that can evaluate network structure in relation to its capacity to conserve marine biodiversity. These metrics combine properties of effective individual MPAs with metrics for their capacity to function collectively as a network. To demonstrate the value of these metrics, we apply them to the Australian MPA network, the largest in the world. Collectively, the indicators suggest that while Australia has made significant progress in building a representative and well-structured MPA network, the level of protection offered to marine biodiversity is generally low, with insufficient coverage of no-take MPAs across many bioregions. The metrics reveal how the current value of the MPA network could be greatly increased by reducing the prevalence of multi-use zones that allow extractive activities known to negatively impact biodiversity. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,20-27,,,219,,Biol.

Gaps in this knowledge base (the “Wallacean Shortfall” of some authors) may coincide with hotspots of diversity for different plant and animal species, requiring the cooperation of a number of different federal, state, local and non-governmental agencies for effective conservation. In this example, the distribution and abundance of benthic macroinvertebrates are widely used as metrics for water quality monitoring, but far less is known about these organisms qua species (taxonomic orders EPT—Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera and Trichoptera). In this study, we inventoried a network of individual US National Park units for species in these orders. These parks are located in geological, ecological and historical places of interest across the states of Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. We sampled these parks in a multi-year intensive inventory in order to determine the composition of the aquatic insect fauna in each park. Since there are no comprehensive accounts of the geographic ranges of these species, we compiled published accounts of species occurrences in these and adjacent states (Arkansas, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, West Virginia) to construct a potential species pool for each state. This pool comprised our best estimate of the EPT species that might potentially occur in each state. We used these source pools to test null hypotheses on whether parks disproportionately under- or over-protect species in different categories of risk of imperilment. We find that parks have fewer rare (G1) species than expected from a null model, and parks over-protect some of the most common (G5) species in the network. This pattern would be expected if the actual landscape distributions of the most imperiled (G1) species are small and/or disjunct and tend to occur outside of the national parks in the region. Interactions between park shape (and size) and individual species geographic ranges are likely to influence the precision of estimates of the potential species pool within a protected area. More research is needed on the distribution of imperiled species across the entire geographic range of species, and the traditional practice of compilation and reporting of occurrence records by state is not sufficient for informed conservation practice. State natural heritage programs and biodiversity conservation database efforts (e.g. NatureServe) implicitly recognize the importance of species ranges, but our analysis demonstrates the need to assess these patterns at a finer spatial grain in order for these state lists to serve as meaningful expectations of the composition of species assemblages. Our analysis considers only a tiny fraction of the protected lands in the region, and an enormous additional area of protected lands exists where many of these rare species occur. More precise and accurate reporting of EPT species occurrences in this region will allow resource managers to target the conservation of particular species within single parks, or across protected area networks. © 2016, Springer International Publishing Switzerland.",,565-581,,4,20,,J.

In this study, we examined the distribution and feeding behaviours of adult versus juvenile minke whales (Balaenoptera acutorostrata) from long-term studies in the Moray Firth in northeast Scotland, where a Marine Protected Area (MPA) has recently been designated. Data were collected during dedicated boat surveys between 2001 and 2022 inclusive, from which 784 encounters with 964 whales of confirmed age-class (471 juveniles and 493 adults) were recorded from 56,263 km of survey effort, resulting in 238 focal follows. Adults and juveniles were occasionally seen together, but their distributions were not statistically correlated, and GIS revealed spatial separation / habitat partitioning by age-class?with juveniles preferring shallower, inshore waters with sandy-gravel sediments, and adults preferring deeper, offshore waters with greater bathymetric slope. GAMs suggested that the partitioning between age-classes was predominantly based on the differing proximity of animals to the shore, with juveniles showing a preference for the gentlest seabed slopes, and both adults and juveniles showing a similar preference for sandy gravel sediment types. However, the GAMs only used sightings data with available survey effort (2008 to 2022) and excluded depth due to collinearity issues. Whilst adult minkes employed a range of “active” prey-entrapment specialisations, showing inter-individual variation and seasonal plasticity in their targeted prey, juveniles almost exclusively used “passive” (low energy) feeding methods targeting low-density patches of inshore prey. These findings corroborate the need to incorporate demographic and behavioural data into spatial models when identifying priority areas for protected cetacean species. Not all areas within an MPA have equal value for a population and a better knowledge of the spatial preferences of these whales within the designated Scottish MPAs, appointed for their protection, is considered vital for their conservation. © 2023 Robinson et al.

Paracuru is a coastal municipality, where there are several environments and three State Conservation Units located on the Curu River and on the Paracuru dunes. For the analysis, the map of environmental vulnerability (generated from the maps of geoenvironmental units and of use and occupation) and social vulnerability was superimposed, using 17 variables included in the calculation of the index organized by census sectors, the smallest sample unit. It was observed stretches of high socio-environmental vulnerability in the sector in the APA of the Curu River, in the locality of Santa Rita, with an intersection area of 2.3 km˛, in the urban headquarters, places called plateau da barra and secondary carnaubinha 3.1 km˛ intersection and sector 16, in the localities of Muriti, Córrego do Curu and Pedrinhas, with an intersection of approximately 800 m˛. In the dunes, the overlap was predominant of high environmental vulnerability and medium-high social vulnerability. It is hoped that the information can serve as a basis for indicating the paths that management should follow to achieve sustainability. © 2020, Universidade Federal de Pernambuco.

Several studies have acoustically mapped rhodolith beds as a homogeneous habitat but spatial changes in nodule coverage, or density, commonly occur. Here, the objective is to acoustically recognize heterogeneities in rhodolith bed structure using the response of backscatter to map changes in nodule coverage and density. High-resolution multibeam sonar (MBSS) data were acquired on April 2018, in the Marine Protection Area (MPA) Costas das Algas, located in the Espírito Santo continental shelf, Eastern Brazilian coast. Three areas were selected based on available data, totalizing 73km2 of data acquisition. Ground truth was obtained at 80 stations, using a drop camera system. Seabed classification was determined by applying an image segmentation process on multibeam sonar backscatter mosaic. Ground truth data was used to statistically show the relation between backscatter and seabed types. Results identified three classes related to rhodoliths in different coverage densities: low rhodolith coverage (inferior to 25% of rhodoliths over a determined area), moderate rhodolith coverage (between 25% and 35% of rhodoliths), and high rhodolith coverage (>35%). Classes associated with sediment, bioconcretions and red algae genus Peyssonelias were also identified. A map showing changes in rhodolith coverage across the shelf depth gradient were produced. The seabed classes had a statistically significant correlation with the segmented backscatter classes. In general, higher rhodolith coverage correlates with higher backscatter. The backscatter mosaic over the area is marked by an extensive presence of the red algae Peyssonelias, resulting in a lower correlation index, when compared to the areas with no Peyssonelia. The seabed mapping approach used in this work provided an efficacious tool to map benthic habitats and to detail nodules distribution across a rhodolith bed.

On this presumption, the levels of endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) in Mira waters were never measured. However, because environmentalists have claimed that the Mira could be moderately polluted, a range of 17 EDCs were measured not only at the estuary but also along the river. The targeted EDCs included natural and pharmaceutical oestrogens (17?-oestradiol, oestrone and 17?-ethynylestradiol), industrial/household pollutants (octylphenols, nonylphenols and their monoethoxylates and diethoxylates and bisphenol A), phytoestrogens (formononetin, biochanin A, daidzein, genistein) and the phytosterol sitosterol (SITO). For this propose, waters from six sampling sites were taken every 2 months, over a 1-year period (2011), and analysed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. Unexpectedly high levels of oestrogens and of industrial/household pollutants were measured at all sampling sites, including those located inside natural protected areas. Indeed, the annual average sum of EDCs was ?57 ng/L for oestrogens and ?1.3 ?g/L for industrial/household chemicals. In contrast, the global average levels of phytoestrogens (?140 ng/L) and of SITO (?295 ng/L) were lower than those reported worldwide. The EDC concentrations were normalised for ethynylestradiol equivalents (EE2eq). In view of these, the oestrogenic load of the Mira River attained ?47 ng/L EE2eq. In addition, phosphates were above legal limits at both spring and summer (>1 mg/L). Overall, data show EDCs at toxicant relevant levels in the Mira and stress the need to monitor rivers that are allegedly less polluted. © 2016, Springer International Publishing Switzerland.",,,,4,188,,Environ.

In addition to this commercial pressure, the impact of recreational activities on fish assemblages remains barely known. Here we examined the impact of spearfishing limitation on resources in a marine protected area (MPA) and the benefit it provides for the local artisanal fishery through the use of a novel indicator. We analysed trends in the fish assemblage composition using artisanal fisheries data collected in the Bonifacio Strait Natural Reserve (BSNR), a Mediterranean MPA where the spearfishing activity has been forbidden over 15% of its area. Fish species were pooled into three response groups according to their target level by spearfishing. We developed the new flexible ReGS indicator reflecting shifts in species assemblages according to the relative abundance of each response group facing external pressure. The catch per unit effort (CPUE) increased by ca. 60% in the BSNR between 2000 and 2007, while the MPA was established in 1999. The gain of CPUE strongly depended on the considered response group: for the highly targeted group, the CPUE doubled while the CPUE of the untargeted group increased by only 15.5%. The ReGS value significantly increased from 0.31 to 0.45 (on a scale between 0 and 1) in the general perimeter of this MPA while it has reached a threshold of 0.43, considered as a reference point, in the area protected from spearfishing since 1982. Our results demonstrated that limiting recreational fishing by appropriate zoning in multiple-use MPAs represents a real benefit for artisanal fisheries. More generally we showed how our new indicator may reveal a wide range of impacts on coastal ecosystems such as global change or habitat degradation. © 2011 Rocklin et al.",,,,9,6,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"algorithm; Algorithms; animal; Animals; article; coastal waters; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; ecosystem; Ecosystem; environmental protection; fish; Fisheries; fishery management; Fishes; fishing; food industry; geography; Geography; global change; growth, development and aging; habitat quality; human; Humans; legal aspect; Mediterranean Region; Mediterranean Sea; methodology; nonhuman; population abundance; recreation; Recreation; Southern Europe; species",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

As some degree of cross-reactivity between seasonal influenza vaccines and H5N1 virus has been reported, this was further explored in the ferret model to determine the targets of protective immunity. Ferrets were vaccinated with two intramuscular inoculations of trivalent inactivated split influenza vaccine or subcomponent vaccines, with and without adjuvant, and later challenged with a lethal dose of A/Vietnam/1203/2004 (H5N1) influenza virus. We confirmed that vaccination with seasonal influenza vaccine afforded partial protection against lethal H5N1 challenge and showed that use of either AlPO4 or Iscomatrix adjuvant with the vaccine resulted in complete protection against disease and death. The protection was due exclusively to the H1N1 vaccine component, and although the hemagglutinin contributed to protection, the dominant protective response was targeted toward the neuraminidase (NA) and correlated with sialic acid cleavage-inhibiting antibody titers. Purified heterologous NA formulated with Iscomatrix adjuvant was also protective. These results suggest that adjuvanted seasonal trivalent vaccine could be used as an interim measure to decrease morbidity and mortality from H5N1 prior to the availability of a specific vaccine. The data also highlight that an inducer of cross-protective immunity is the NA, a protein whose levels are not normally monitored in vaccines and whose capacity to induce immunity in recipients is not normally assessed. © 2013, American Society for Microbiology.",,3053-3061,,6,87,,J.

This shift is a necessary recognition that protected areas alone will be insufficient to conserve a large proportion of species globally, especially given competing pressures for land development and marine resources. However, despite clear demonstrations of the potential benefits of managing terrestrial and marine resources to produce a sustainable mix of environmental and human co-benefits, many of the most promising models remain under-funded or largely aspirational. Consequently, only 12–17% of the estimated $300–$400 billion* of investment needed annually to maintain healthy ecosystems globally currently flows to conservation finance, with most originating from limited public and philanthropic sources. Those numbers contrast with the amount of capital available to invest globally. Institutional investors and other asset managers have more than $175 trillion in assets under management that are being invested in economic activity globally. Many of these investors are increasingly demanding that environmental sustainability be used, at least partly, to guide investment decisions. As a result of this growing demand, sustainable investment funds in the United States grew by over 33% from 2014 to 2016 and now comprise about one-fifth ($9 trillion) of professionally managed assets. Substantial opportunities may, therefore, exist to direct private capital towards conservation investments, despite the marketplace for such investments being slow to develop to date. The promise of conservation investing notwithstanding, there remain important barriers and concerns about unintended or negative outcomes for people and the planet due to bad actors, redirection of public resources, perverse incentives, misaligned objectives, or poorly designed projects. In this issue, we summarize specific challenges and opportunities related to the mobilization of private capital in conservation. There is a critically important role for the development of consistent and accountable frameworks to guide project design, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation while also ensuring equitable and beneficial outcomes for all stakeholders. Scientists and practitioners in the social and ecological sciences, as well as law and finance fields, can shape these rapidly growing initiatives by helping to: 1. Design investable projects with meaningful conservation impacts. 2. Develop rigorous but flexible frameworks to standardize metrics and monitoring protocols, compare project and investment outcomes, and track progress towards global targets. 3. Establish safeguards, protocols, and ethics for engaging local stakeholders. 4. Create blueprints to facilitate the design of projects that allow investors to generate economic returns while ensuring positive, sustainable outcomes for the environment. 5.

This paper develops and tests a generic framework for assessing the sustainability of such ventures. The framework aims to guide the collection and collation of existing information and then use this information to identify current sustainability issues and information gaps. Development relied on a literature review and expert opinion. Testing was undertaken on whale shark tourism at Ningaloo Marine Park in north-western Australia. Evaluation of the framework suggests it has applicability (i.e. it is simple to use) and is useful, where usefulness refers to the ability to contribute to sustainable tourism management. Its reproducibility (i.e. providing consistent responses irrespective of the context) could only be determined through application to multiple case studies, a recommendation flowing from this study. The framework has at least three applications: improving existing marine wildlife tourism operations through reviewing their sustainability; developing an auditing mechanism as part of the licensing provisions for such tourism; and helping to determine the likely sustainability of proposed ventures.

Results reveal a high oil sensitivity of the bay, with approximately 89 % of the mapped coast scoring ESI 8 and ESI 10. These scores comprise, respectively, estuarine and solid substrate habitats that are sheltered from wave action. Notably, numerous manufacturing and oil handling plants, along with intensive urbanization, also contribute to the bay's oil sensitivity. Additionally, the rich biotic diversity in the study area, particularly in protected areas housing 79 conservation units, further amplifies its environmental vulnerability.

This fragmentation is even more critical in the Northern Atlantic Rainforest, making the creation of ecological corridors critical to interconnect the protected areas. The effective conservation depends also on mechanisms for protecting nature as a whole and not only the creation of protected areas. Therefore, a new rationale - favoring social groups and reconciling interests to preserve the natural common good - is critical. Thus, this study aimed to analyze the legal and environmental instruments, and public policies capable of enabling the creation of ecological corridors in remnant areas of the Northern Atlantic Forest, under a sustainable perspective. A qualitative study with a legal based approach was performed, together with an evaluation in situ in the State Park of Mata da Pipa, Tibau do Sul, RN. Using the methodology of argumentative analysis, arguments were constructed based on socioenvironmental bases from socioenvironmental rationales, sustainable development, and legal-environmental principles. Instruments and public policies acting as incentives, combined with support and instruction, represent the best ways to link conservation with sustainable diversity. Regarding the financial funds, the managers should pay attention to the Northern Atlantic Forest, reducing the regional disparities in investiments; the environmental agencies should elaborate projects of incentives. © 2020 Centro Universitario de Brasilia.

This research gap results in a limited understanding of the relationships between non-material NCP and human well-being, especially in the marine and coastal environment. To understand the relationships between non-material NCP and subjective human well-being, we surveyed 453 users of Litoral Norte-a multiple-use marine protected area in Portugal. Our survey included 16 statement indicators reflecting theoretical constructs of subjective well-being. Using factor analysis, we found that subjective well-being derived from relating to, interacting with, and experiencing marine and coastal sites can be grouped into four interpretable cultural dimensions of well-being. These dimensions are 'engagement with nature & health', 'sense of place', 'solitude in nature', and 'spirituality'. We also found statistically significant differences in reported levels of the four dimensions of well-being.

Soil samples were collected at Monte Pascoal National and Historical Park, in Southern Bahia, in native and natural regeneration areas of Atlantic Forest in two seasons (rainy and dry). Greater number of glomerospores and richness and diversity of AMF were found in the area under regeneration, with differences between seasons being observed only for the number of glomerospores. Seventy-seven species of AMF were recorded, considering all areas and seasons, with Acaulospora and Glomus being the most representative genera. Greater abundance of species of the genera Acaulospora, Claroideoglomus, and Septoglomus was found in the regeneration area. The AMF community differed between the study areas, but not between seasons, with soil attributes (pH, K, Al, Mg, m, and clay) structuring factors for this difference in the AMF community.

When integrated with other IUCN knowledge products, such as the World Database of Protected Areas/Protected Planet, Key Biodiversity Areas and the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, the Red List of Ecosystems will contribute to providing the most complete global measure of the status of biodiversity yet achieved. © 2015 The Author(s) Published by the Royal Society.

The history of the RLE concept within IUCN is briefly summarized, from the first attempt to formally establish an RLE in 1996 to the present. Major activities since 2008, when the World Conservation Congress initiated a ""consultation process for the development, implementation and monitoring of a global standard for the assessment of ecosystem status, applicable at local, regional and global levels,"" have included: Development of a research agenda for strengthening the scientific foundations of the RLE, publication of preliminary categories and criteria for examination by the scientific and conservation community, dissemination of the effort widely by presenting it at workshops and conferences around the world, and encouraging tests of the system for a diversity of ecosystem types and in a variety of institutional settings. Between 2009 and 2012, the Red List of Ecosystems Thematic Group of the IUCN Commission on Ecosystem Management organized 18 workshops and delivered 17 conferences in 20 countries on 5 continents, directly reaching hundreds of participants. Our vision for the future includes the integration of the RLE to the other three key IUCN knowledge products (IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, World Database on Protected Areas and Key Biodiversity Areas), in an on-line, user-driven, freely-accessible information management system for performing biodiversity assessments. In addition we wish to pilot the integration of the RLE into land/water use planning and macro-economic planning. Fundamental challenges for the future include: Substantial expansion in existing institutional and technical capacity (especially in biodiversity-rich countries in the developing world), progressive assessment of the status of all terrestrial, freshwater, marine and subterranean ecosystems, and development of a map of the ecosystems of the world. Our ultimate goal is that national, regional and global RLEs are used to inform conservation and land/water use decision-making by all sectors of society. © Author(s) 2012.",,60-70,,2,5,,Sapiens,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Ecosystem collapse; Ecosystem degradation; Ecosystem threat status; Endangered ecosystems; IUCN categories and criteria; IUCN Red List; Land/water use and conservation; Risk assessment; Threatened ecosystems,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The area includes Le Danois Bank and its intraslope basin. It joined the OSPAR Network of MPAs in 2009 and, thereafter, was included in the Natura 2000 Network in 2011. The main reason for its declaration as MPA was the presence of the 1170 Reefs habitat included in Annex I of the EU Habitats Directive. In 2018, the MPAs Master Management Plan was under revision and its design criteria were subjected to evaluation. We used Marxan decision support tool to evaluate the MPA's management design criteria. This tool selects the most important conservation features, while minimizing the socioeconomic cost. First, the 1170 Reefs habitat was defined as the main environmental value. Specifically, we took into account the six large sized target species that are more representative of this habitat in the area: the sponges Asconema setubalense, Geodia cf. barretti and Phakellia robusta, the anthipatarian Leiopathes glaberrima, and the gorgonians Placogorgia sp. and Callogorgia verticillata. A spatial distribution map was produced for each species using Generalized Additive Models (GAM). We also considered the presence of spawning stocks of fish species which are present in the area as an important conservation value. Their spatial distribution was modeled through Maxent software. Additionally, for the socioeconomic cost, fishing effort of the different fisheries operating in the area was estimated linking VMS/Logbook data before and after the MPA was declared. The first results obtained with the Marxan tool were presented in public consultation, in the context of the LIFE + INTEMARES Project, to help in decision making within the new Management Plan. Thus, to improve the management measures aimed at the conservation of the environmental values of the MPA, an enlargement of the protected area to the West was proposed, and a more reasonable use of the buffer area to fishermen than that defined in the former Management Plan was suggested. Involving all stakeholders in the development of the management plan for this MPA is a decisive step for the creation and consolidation of an important network of MPAs in Spain. © 2019",,54-65,,,184,,Cont.

In Bolivia a total of five species occur, all of which are members of the family Alligatoridae: Caiman yacare, C. latirostris, Melanosuchus niger, Paleosuchus palpebrosus, and P. trigonatus. Beginning in the mid-1800s, wild populations were reduced and threatened by unsustainable exploitation, commercial hunting, lack of wildlife law enforcement, and poor management strategies. Economic incentives that can be generated through the management of crocodylians and sustainable use of wildlife (SUW) programs have become key elements for conservation of the species and their habitats. Nevertheless, these programs must be designed based on solid scientific strategies to guarantee efficiency and sustainability. Adapted from successful conservation strategies for other species, we present the first country-wide range assessment of crocodylians in Bolivia. We evaluated the current state of knowledge and propose regional conservation priorities, integrating distribution and biological information available for Bolivian crocodylians. We carried out a literature search and review, and spatial data compilation to estimate the distribution range (Extent of Occurrence - EOO), characterize ecoregions (Crocodylian Geographic Regions - CGRs), and delineate areas with species occurrence and population surveys (Crocodylian Study Units – CSUs). Finally, ecoregions inside CSUs were defined as Crocodylian Conservation Units (CCUs), for which we developed a geographic priority setting. We categorized them as Regional Habitat Priority (RHP) areas with sufficient biological information to implement management and sustainable use programs aimed at species and habitat conservation, or as Regional Research Priority (RRP) areas with the absence or insufficience of biological information to prioritize research and monitoring programs. We reviewed 105 documents written from 1977 to 2017 and used spatial data from 44 documents. We estimated an EOO of 654,930 km2, defined 17 CGRs, 98 CSUs, and 167 CCUs, out of which 29 were categorized as RHP and 138 as RRP. This study is the first effort to develop a regional conservation plan as a scientific baseline that can facilitate decision-makers to prioritize future research, encourage habitat protection, and promote management and sustainable use programs to achieve effective long-term survival of crocodylians in Bolivia. © 2019 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,52,,J.

The Villafáfila Nature Reserve, a protected lagoon complex that is recognized as a pivotal wetland in the northern part of the Iberian Peninsula is facing increasing threats from contaminants of emerging concern (CEC), which can compromise water quality and pose significant risks to aquatic life and environmental integrity. In this study, we aim to elucidate the occurrence and concentration of CEC in The Villafáfila Nature Reserve, and evaluate its good quality state compared with an intensively exploited agriculture area in a nearby locality of Tordesillas. The study offers insights into the presence and concentration of emerging contaminants in the Spanish Duero River basin, aiding the development of standardized monitoring protocols and regulatory frameworks applicable globally. To assess the pollution status of its waters by CEC, samples were collected from wells, lagoons, and springs impacted by agrochemicals, farms and tourism. Out of the 55 CEC measured, 47 were detected in groundwater samples, with 16 of them exhibiting a median concentration within the range of 2.184–43.38 ngL-1. Notably, the UV filter BP3 along with its metabolite 4DHB, AVO, 4MBC, and the stimulant CFF were present in all samples. Additionally, BP, BP1, 4HB, CPAA, MeBZT, UVP, AZIT, CBZ, SPY, SMD, and TMP were found with a detection frequency more than 50%. The highest concentrations were observed for BP (412.51 ngL-1), CFF (328.18 ngL-1), and BP3 (106.01 ngL-1), with CBZ, acSDZ, and ATM concentrations surpassing 100 ngL-1.

Our objective was to determine the longitudinal and seasonal distribution of perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) in water column and sediments from a wastewater dominated stream that enters preservation areas. Water samples were collected along the longitudinal section (six sites, 1000 m away from each other) of the stream during the dry and wet seasons. Sediments were collected from three sites along the stream from three depths. Water and sediments were analyzed for PFAAs using high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Eleven PFAAs with 5 to 14 carbon atoms were detected in the water column at all sampling points, with a minor reduction at the last point suggesting a dilution effect. The most detected PFAAs was PFOS, followed by perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), and perfluorohexanoic acid (PFHxA). Seasonal differences in PFAAs concentrations suggested contribution of stormwater runoff during the wet season. All analyzed PFAAs in sediments were under the limit of quantification, likely due to the high proportion of sand and low organic matter. However, high concentrations of PFAAs were detected in the water column inside the protected areas, which includes PFOS in concentrations considered not safe for avian wildlife. Water samples appear to be more relevant than sediments to determine PFAAs micro-pollution in water bodies with sandy sediments.

However, this might result in extremely expensive computational time, especially when additional loops for transient simulation and for optimization are involved. One possibility to mitigate computing time is to use few but well-selected realizations that best represent the involved geological uncertainties, e.g., by clustering techniques. The goal of this paper is to address the search for representative realizations that best approximate the distribution and its tails of a model ensemble. In our test application, this ensemble is used to delineate wellhead protection areas (WHPAs) under transient flow conditions and subject to random heterogeneity of the aquifer. Our approach is based on clustering and proposes that the cluster medoids (representatives) should be optimized not for “statistical representation in the space of some selected proxy metrics”, but for “a minimum of decision-relevant errors”. And, if the underlying decision problem is multi-objective, then the clustering optimization can be made multi-objective, too. In this way, many subsequent analyses can be performed on the condensed set of representative scenarios that would be computationally too expensive otherwise, even if distribution tails and extreme realizations are relevant. We demonstrate the advantage of our clustering optimization methodology on a dynamic probabilistic WHPA delineation, and we compare its performance with a standard clustering analysis. Our results show that: (1) in probabilistic transient WHPA analysis, clustering is a suitable technique to account for geological uncertainty. (2) However, clustering analysis should be based on optimization concepts rather than on simple medoid concepts, and (3) of course, it should use problem-specific and decision-relevant metrics for cluster optimization. In our WHPA application, this leads to a more accurate representation of decision-relevant statistical extremes. (4) The additional extension to multi-objective cluster selection probes to be a valid approach in multi-objective WHPA delineation. (5) Using our framework, we reduce the computational cost of addressing highly expensive simulations. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,162,,Adv.

In Spain, FRs are considered marine protected areas (MPAs) and included in the country's MPA network. MPAs’ ecological effectiveness is linked to a number of legal, managerial and bio-physical factors. With the amount of MPA area rapidly rising and conservation funds largely stagnant or decreasing, rapid, cost-effective MPA assessment techniques are becoming increasingly useful to verify fulfillment of global conservation targets and ascertain potential conservation effectiveness. Here, a rapid MPA protection assessment framework and one MPA ecological effectiveness framework were applied to the Spanish Network of 10 FRs (FRN): the MaPAF and NEOLI frameworks. The FRN was moderately legally protected, with over 50.5% of its area having three or more overlapping legal designations, but only 3.8% of the FRN's area being no-take. All FRs had management plans and active surveillance. According to MaPAF, Columbretes FR was the most highly legally protected whereas Cabo de Palos was the FR with the greatest managerial effort. Both rank highest in protection. In contrast, Masía Blanca FR and Alborán FR were the least legally protected whereas Alborán FR and Graciosa FR were the least managerially protected FRs of the FRN and rank the lowest in protection, respectively. According to the NEOLI framework, Columbretes would also be the most effective FR whereas Masía Blanca FR would be the least ecologically effective. These results can help to spur and better allocate conservation efforts across the fastly growing Spanish MPA network. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,29-36,,,90,,Mar.

However, it has not yet fully developed its renewable energy production capacity, with no commercial offshore wind production to date, and remains highly dependent on fossil fuel imports. The country is also one of Europe's most biodiverse, on land and at sea. This study spatially assesses the country's offshore wind energy potential by incorporating the newly designated marine protected areas (MPAs) to the official Spanish strategic environmental assessment for the installation of offshore windfarms (SEA). It also identifies optimal areas for offshore windfarm development according to key physical variables such as wind speed, depth and substrate type. It finally assesses real commercial windfarm projects against current environmental constraints. The results show that nearly 50% of the whole area within 24 nm from the Spanish coast could be suitable for offshore windfarm development at the planning phase. However, only 0.7% of that area is optimal for wind energy production with current fixed turbine technology. Nevertheless, either area would allow Spain to meet its national targets of 750 MW of ocean power capacity installed by 2020 under adequate local wind conditions. Over 88% of all commercial windfarm project area is within the SEA's Exclusion zone, thus unfeasible under current circumstances. Technological breakthroughs like floating turbines may soon make the optimal windfarm area (OWA) less restrictive and reduce current environmental impacts of marine windfarms within a truly sustainable Blue Growth. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,Aug-14,,,73,,Mar.

It additively considers marine protection coverage by conventional MPAs (cMPAs; tier 1); unconventional MPAs (uMPAs, including international Fisheries Restricted Areas - iFRAs-; tier 2); and Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures (OEABCMs, including national FRAs-nFRAs; tier 3). It also discusses the appropriateness of considering tiers 2 and 3 as legal and managerial tools for sustainable marine development in national reporting against international protection coverage targets. At the Mediterranean Sea scale, by mid-2015 there were 1077 cMPAs which covered 6.45% of its area. At the ecoregional scale, only the Western Mediterranean ecoregion exceeds the 10% coverage target. At national scale, four countries (Monaco, France, Spain and Turkey) currently exceed the 10% target for their entire hypothetical Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs). The cMPA designations that contribute most to Mediterranean MPA coverage are Specially Protected Areas of Mediterranean Importance (SPAMIs), the Pelagos Sanctuary, Natura 2000 sites and national designations, respectively. When considering uMPAs, the amount of marine area under protection in the Mediterranean reaches 1,632,507 km2 or roughly 64.48% of the Mediterranean Sea area; all the ecoregions more than double the CBD coverage target; all countries but Malta meet the target in their inshore waters; and all countries meet the target in their whole hypothetical EEZs. Finally, nFRAs contributed 565km2 of additional protected area and made the percentage of legally protected marine area reach 64.50% of the total Mediterranean Sea area. © 2015 The Authors.",,24-30,,,64,,Mar.

However, OECMs have been rarely considered in practical terms until recently. Here, we performed a rapid evaluation on the degree of fulfilment of current area-based international biodiversity targets, post-2020 foreseeable oncoming targets, and ecological targets by considering: 1) Protection coverage; 2) Inclusiveness of important areas for biodiversity; 3) Protection management; 4) Connectivity; and 5) Habitat representation, on land and at sea in Spain, a Euro-Mediterranean, biodiversity rich country. We conducted the evaluation under two scenarios: 1) Scenario 1 considers designated PAs; and 2) Scenario 2, that also includes potential OECMs. In order to generate Scenario 2, thirteen legal categories were assessed against international guidance on OECMs as a first step to screen their likelihood of providing OECMs in Spain. Our findings show that some potentially satisfactory OECM categories such as Public Utility Forests, River Reserves or Geoparks meet the OECM criteria to a large degree and deserve further study. Our results also highlight that Spain is currently well above most foreseeable post-2020 biodiversity targets and even close to some ecological targets using just PAs, except for marine protected area (MPA) management and MPA offshore coverage. Adding OECMs would noticeably improve the country's figures yet without reaching many exigent ecological targets. OECMs can become a useful, cost-effective biodiversity conservation tool that contributes to international targets under new, more ambitious area-based conservation requirements in Spain and elsewhere. Nevertheless, for this to happen, suitable biodiversity management and monitoring schemes must be ensured. © 2021 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,62,,J. Nat.

The waters around the Juan Fernández Archipelago were not protected until 2014, when a Multiple Use Marine Protected Area was created in the 12 nautical miles around the archipelago, which includes five marine parks in sites of high conservation value. Three of these parks are located around Robinson Crusoe Island. This study aims to define a baseline for monitoring the impact of the marine protected area and provides ecological information to improve the understanding of coastal marine ecosystems around Robinson Crusoe Island. In addition to a characterization of bathymetry and habitats, intertidal and subtidal communities were sampled using transects and quadrats within the marine parks. We quantified species richness and abundances, which were later organized into functional groups for algae and trophic groups for mobile organisms. Although species richness did not vary between sites nor among the habitats sampled, we observed important differences in species abundance and composition as well as in functional and trophic groups both between sites and habitats. Among our results, we highlight: a) the dominance of endemic algae in intertidal and subtidal (mainly corticated and corticated foliose) habitats, b) high abundances of macroinvertebrate herbivores in intertidal habitats and detrivores in subtidal habitats, c) dominance of invertivorous fish in the subtidal, which are the primary predators of mobile benthic organisms.

Monitoring these exposed and submerged reefs is challenging and available resources are limited. Citizen science is increasing in momentum, as an applied research tool and in the variety of monitoring approaches adopted. This paper aims to demonstrate an ecological assessment and mapping approach that incorporates both top-down (volunteer marine scientists) and bottom-up (divers/community) engagement aspects of citizen science, applied at a subtropical reef at Point Lookout, Southeast Queensland, Australia. Marine scientists trained fifty citizen scientists in survey techniques that included mapping of habitat features, recording of substrate, fish and invertebrate composition, and quantifying impacts (e.g., occurrence of substrate damage, presence of litter). In 2014 these volunteers conducted four seasonal surveys along semi-permanent transects, at five sites, across three reefs. The project presented is a model on how citizen science can be conducted in a marine environment through collaboration of volunteer researchers, non-researchers and local marine authorities. Significant differences in coral and algal cover were observed among the three sites, while fluctuations in algal cover were also observed seasonally. Differences in fish assemblages were apparent among sites and seasons, with subtropical fish groups observed more commonly in colder seasons. The least physical damage occurred in the most exposed sites (Flat Rock) within the highly protected marine park zones. The broad range of data collected through this top-down/bottomup approach to citizen science exemplifies the projects' value and application for identifying ecosystem trends or patterns. The results of the project support natural resource and marine park management, providing a valuable contribution to existing scientific knowledge and the conservation of local reefs. © 2016 Roelfsema et al.This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original author and source are credited.",,,,10,11,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,"animal; Animals; Anthozoa; biodiversity; Biodiversity; case report; CLIMATE-CHANGE; COAST; community participation; Community Participation; coral; coral reef; Coral Reefs; diver; education; educational model; environmental monitoring; Environmental Monitoring; exposure; habitat; human; invertebrate; MARINE; marine biology; Marine Biology; marine environment; methodology; model; Models, Educational; natural resource; nonhuman; procedures; Queensland; questionnaire; Research Design; scientist; season; SHARK; Surveys and Questionnaires; volunteer",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Improved spatial information on reef geomorphic zonation and benthic cover type (including coral type) is critical to support scientific work to understand how the GBR is changing, and to support resource management decisions that enable conservation of the reef and its essential ecosystem services. Yet, no comprehensive maps exist that detail the geomorphic zonation or benthic cover for the GBR’s ~ 3000 reefs. This study presents three new types of shallow reef maps for 237 reefs in the central Cairns Management Region of the GBR Marine Park (GBRMP), explores how the detailed habitat maps created compared to current maps and posits how the new maps may support and refine current critical key science outputs and management challenges. Geomorphic Zonation, Benthic Cover and Coral Type habitat maps were created using a unique combined object-based image analysis and ecological modelling approach that incorporated satellite imagery, limited field data and key reef physical attributes (depth, slope, waves) using a previously peer-reviewed mapping approach developed for the Capricorn Bunker Group reefs, Southern GBR. The mapping approach was consistent and repeatable, suggesting applicability to mapping all 3000 reefs in the GBRMP. Compared to existing maps that only outline each reef, the increase in detail provided by these new habitat maps enabled discrete characterisation of each reef’s geomorphology and benthic composition. With the new habitat maps, areas within each reef can be identified as either coral habitat or not coral habitat. This has not been possible previously. As such, a model of coral ecological and biophysical processes that depends on bottom reflectance of sand and coral areas can be fine-tuned. Similarly, for reef restoration, nursery structures are commonly placed in non-coral habitats, and/or coral larvae are dispersed in areas of known coral habitat. The new habitat maps presented permit more accurate identification of these areas such that restoration projects can be targeted more effectively. These findings confirm the need to now apply this mapping approach to the full extent of the GBR. © 2020, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,1039-1054,,4,39,,Coral Reefs,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer,,,,ACCURACY; Anthozoa; Australia; AUSTRALIA; BATHYMETRY; benthos; biophysics; Cairns; community structure; Coral Sea; CORAL-REEFS; ecological modeling; environmental restoration; geomorphology; Great Barrier Reef; habitat fragmentation; habitat management; Habitat mapping; habitat structure; identification method; IMAGE-ANALYSIS; INFORMATION; INTEGRATING FIELD; Management; mapping; marine park; Queensland; Reef restoration; Remote sensing; RESILIENCE; RESOLUTION; SCIENCE; surface reflectance; Water quality,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Current management strategies tend to look to the past to set goals, focusing on halting declines and restoring baseline conditions. Here, we explore a complementary approach to decision making that is based on the anticipation of future changes in ecosystem state, function and services. Reviewing the existing literature and utilizing a scenario planning approach, we explore how the structure of coral reef communities might change in the future in response to global climate change and overfishing. We incorporate uncertainties in our predictions by considering heterogeneity in reef types in relation to structural complexity and primary productivity. We examine 14 ecosystem services provided by reefs, and rate their sensitivity to a range of future scenarios and management options. Our predictions suggest that the efficacy of management is highly dependent on biophysical characteristics and reef state. Reserves are currently widely used and are predicted to remain effective for reefs with high structural complexity. However, when complexity is lost, maximizing service provision requires a broader portfolio of management approaches, including the provision of artificial complexity, coral restoration, fish aggregation devices and herbivore management. Increased use of such management tools will require capacity building and technique refinement and we therefore conclude that diversification of our management toolbox should be considered urgently to prepare for the challenges of managing reefs into the 21st century. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,504-514,,2,21,,Global Change Biol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Anthozoa; ARTIFICIAL REEFS; climate change; climate effect; CLIMATE-CHANGE; COMMUNITIES; CONSERVATION; Conservation of Natural Resources; coral reef; coral reefs; Coral reefs; Coral Reefs; DECISION-MAKING; degraded ecosystems; Degraded ecosystems; ecology; Ecology; economics; ecosystem function; Ecosystem function; ecosystem management; ecosystem service; ecosystem services; Ecosystem services; environmental degradation; environmental protection; FISH; FISHERIES; HABITAT; habitat complexity; Habitat complexity; marine park; marine reserve; Marine reserve; PREDATION; procedures; REGION-WIDE DECLINES; twenty first century,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The preliminary exvessel economic value of California commercial landings in 2001 was $104 million, a decrease of 22% from $133 million in 2000. Two of the top three grossing fisheries in the state were invertebrate fisheries, as was the case in 2000. The top three fisheries for 2001 (excluding kelp) in ex-vessel value were market squid ($17.5 million), groundfish ($16 million), and red sea urchin ($11.5 million). These fisheries all decreased in value in 2001 compared with 2000: squid declined 35%, groundfish declined 20%, and sea urchin declined 11.5%, continuing its downward trend since its historic high in 1988. The Dungeness crab fishery, with landings significantly lower than the ten-year mean, fell from the list of the top three fisheries and was valued at $8.9 million in 2000. The swordfish fishery, worth $8.6 million in 2001, was the fifth most valuable fishery in the state, recovering slightly from the low in 1998. Ridgeback prawn decreased 76% in 2001 from its 20-year high in 2000, and spot prawn continued its downward trend from the high set in 1998. White abalone was listed as endangered under the federal Endangered Species Act (ESA) in May 2001, making it the first marine invertebrate to be listed. A recovery plan is currently being drafted. Revenue generated from kelp harvesting in 2001 was worth an estimated $19 million, after production, to the major harvester and producer of algin products, ISP Alginates; revenue was down from the $40 million reported in 2000 due to the weakening in the U.S. economy in 2001, intense competition from foreign algin producers, and ISP's decision to shift production to its facility in Scotland. Management authority over coastal pelagic species (Pacific sardine, Pacific mackerel, northern anchovy, and jack mackerel) was transferred from state agencies in California, Oregon, and Washington to the Pacific Fishery Management Council (PFMC) by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) in January 2000. Landings of Pacific sardine remained high in 2001, with an increase in ex-vessel value per metric ton. Only 56% of the sardine harvest guideline was caught in 2001. Pacific mackerel landings fell to 7,000 t in 2001, as did landings in Baja California, Mexico. The fishery was closed in March when the harvest guideline was met. Anchovy landings increased substantially in 2001 to 19,000 t, up 37% from 2000. Landings in the commercial groundfish fishery were less than 12,000 t in 2001, a 67% decrease compared with ten years ago and a 28% decrease compared with last year. The groundfish harvest was again dominated by the Dover sole, thornyhead, sablefish (DTS) complex, which declined substantially compared with 2000. Stock assessments prepared for the DTS complex show a lack of sablefish recruitment over the past decade. Rockfish landings were also down in 2001; 2,401 t were landed in 2001 compared with 3,238 t in 2000, a decline of 26%, and a decline of 83% compared with 1991. As a result of stock assessments in 2000, widow rockfish and darkblotched rockfish were added to the list of groundfishes declared ""overfished""; already on the list are lingcod, bocaccio, Pacific ocean perch, and some rockfishes. The nearshore finfish fishery landed 447 t statewide in 2001, well below the 1997 peak in the fishery of 947 t. The live-fish landings component was 307 t, 69% of the overall nearshore catch. In 2001, the ex-vessel value for live-fish landings was approximately $2.8 million, about 17.5% of the value of the groundfish fishery (nearshore and offshore) and a greater proportion of the fishery's value than in the previous year. 2001 was the second consecutive year PFMC implemented two-month fishery closures for all nearshore rockfishes (winter closure south of Monterey and spring closure north of Monterey; no closure north of Cape Mendocino). During the rockfish closures, fishing effort for the live- fish market shifted to other species in some areas, such as surfperch in the San Francisco area. Recreational finfish landings increased by 5%, to 3,073,793 individual fish caught by 682,019 anglers aboard commercial passenger fishing vessels (CPFVs) in 2001. Southern California CPFV landings comprised 83% of the statewide total, the same as in 2000. Commercial salmon fishers landed more than 1,012 t of chinook salmon, a six-fold decrease from the 20-year high set in 1988. Recreational anglers landed 97,000 chinook salmon from the ocean in 2001, a decline of 48% from the previous year. The coho salmon fishery remained closed. Commercial and recreational landings of white seabass reached an all-time high in 2001: commercial fishers landed more than 120 t, and recreational anglers landed more than 38,000 fish. The Marine Life Management Act provides that fishery management plans (FMPs) shall form the basis for managing California's marine fisheries. A major component of the California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG) Marine Region's work in 2001 was to draft these plans as well as to amend existing plans, such as the Coastal Pelagic Species FMP (finfishes only), which set a capacity goal for the limited-entry fleet. The California Fish and Game Commission is expected to adopt three more FMPs in 2002 - for nearshore fishes, abalone, and squid. As part of the FMP drafting process, CDFG held numerous workshops to facilitate constituent input into the process. Furthermore, CDFG has partnered with PFMC and others to develop the preliminary FMP for West Coast highly migratory species. In 2001 the California Fish and Game Commission undertook 25 rule-making actions that address marine and anadromous species. In May 2001 the emergency closure of the gill-net fishery in shallow waters (<60 fathoms deep) off the central California coast was upheld, continuing the prohibition established in September 2000 to protect the common murre and the southern sea otter. In addition to the regulatory actions, the commission also received extensive oral and written testimony from the public.

Having recognized this need, a research was conducted to develop methodology for analyzing daily visitors in NPs (methodological objective), to identify regularities characteristic for visitor flow in mountain NPs in Poland (cognitive objective), and to present the usefulness of monitoring studies in developing effective strategies aimed at tourist traffic management in NPs and their surrounding areas (application objective). The availability of data allowed conducting analyses for three national parks: The Pieniny NP (PNP), The Sto?owe Mountains NP (SMNP) and The Tatra NP (TNP). The analyses covering the period 2017–2022 revealed a strong intensification of visitor flow and a growing problem of overtourism in the analyzed areas, primarily in TNP. An increase in maximum daily values, the number of days showing these values, and intensified tourist traffic off-high season were found. Using Daily Visitor Index and Seasonality Index, high-, mid-, and low seasons were identified, including the similarities in traffic seasonality between PNP and SMNP, along with the different nature of TNP, where the winter season was additionally separated. Using the Monthly Visitor Index and Gini coefficient, the long-term variation analysis revealed a reduction in the seasonality of tourism resulting from higher intensity of visits off summer season, in particular the extension of mid-seasons. Due to the growing number of high season visitors and the increasing visitor flow, it is necessary to implement time-limit measures at specific locations and activities aimed at temporal and spatial tourist traffic dispersion. The study shows the development process of overtourism in NPs. It also gives indications that the uneven spatial distribution of visitor flow determines the need for diagnosing overtourism in places and periods with the highest visitation intensity. Such a diagnosis is essential for effective tourism management in NPs and supports decision-making processes for the development of surrounding localities. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,373,,J. Environ.

A zoned Biosphere Reserve established in 1993 proved ineffective at slowing the population's decline, and in 2005, a Vaquita Refuge was declared. The Refuge Program included a ban on gillnetting and trawling in certain areas with relatively high densities of vaquitas. However, it was not until 2008, with the introduction of a Species Conservation Action Plan for Vaquita (PACE-Vaquita), that a comprehensive protection and recovery effort was introduced. Unfortunately, valuable time was lost as officials first needed to bring order to a poorly managed fishery management system. Also, the voluntary nature of fisherman participation and the chronic deficiency of enforcement have limited PACE's effectiveness. Although efforts to implement the plan probably slowed the vaquita's decline, the goal of eliminating gillnets (and thus most vaquita bycatch) by 2012 was not reached. This example shows the difficulty of achieving conservation when the program's rationale centers on the preservation of biodiversity with less emphasis on meeting community aspirations. In fact, not only does the vaquita have no economic value, but the measures taken for its conservation have a negative economic impact and hence are met with hostility, or at best indifference, on the part of fishery authorities and fishing communities. On a more positive note, a light trawl has been field-tested and shown to be efficient at capturing shrimp; such 'vaquita-safe' trawls are suitable for replacing gillnets in the shrimp fishery. Similarly suitable alternative gear needs to be developed urgently for use in the finfish fisheries. Unless entangling nets are removed quickly from the vaquita's habitat, it will soon be too late to save the species, which probably already numbers fewer than 200 animals.",,77-87,,1,21,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000321263000008,,,,,,,BAIJI; EXTINCTION; FISHERIES; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

By 1950, Tortuguero was one of the sites with the greatest take of green turtles in the Caribbean. Currently, Tortuguero is a worldwide example for ecotourism-based on sea turtle conservation. However, illegal take of nesting turtles still occurs. We aimed to describe the illegal take at Tortuguero, estimating the minimum number of sea turtles taken using data collected during daily and weekly track surveys from 2005 to 2021. Additionally, we conducted 12 semi-structured interviews with key informants to obtain a better understanding of this activity. We documented 735 nesting turtles illegally taken at Tortuguero, being the green turtle the most affected species; these findings were also supported by our interviewees. Respondents stated that in Tortuguero the take of sea turtles has always occurred and traditions regarding sea turtle meat consumption are still present, even though it is considered shameful in the village. However, our interviewees affirmed that most of the sea turtles taken are traded to other locations away from Tortuguero. Our findings represent the minimum of illegal take (documented only at the beach), as not all the sea turtles taken were observed. Finally, despite long-standing conservation efforts carried out in Tortuguero, further changes in the National Park's management plans are needed, including more personnel and increased law enforcement. This may be necessary to reduce the impact on the Tortuguero green turtle nesting population in the near future. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,324,,J. Environ.

The characterization of developmental phases and morphological changes of its syconium is essential for facilitating pollination and dispersal studies, but only a few species in the Americas have been characterized. Ficus pringlei is endemic to Mexico for which detailed information on the potential distribution and reproductive aspects are lacking. The aims of this study were to describe syconia development, determine the type of pollination, and detect areas of potentially suitable environments for establishing F. pringlei. Methods: Syconia were collected to describe their development phases. The syconia and its pollinating wasps were fixed in alcohol for processing and described using scanning electron microscopy. Ecological niche models were used to predict areas with suitable environments to locate F. pringlei. Key results: The syconium changed in size, color, consistency, and shape of the ostiole over the course of its developmental phases, particularly in stages that were most critical for their interaction with pollinators and dispersers. Syconia development was asynchronous at both the within- and between-individual level in the sampled population. Ficus pringlei is actively pollinated. The predicted suitable distribution area for this species was concentrated mainly in the tropical dry forests of the states of Jalisco and Michoacan. The most important variable to explain the potential distribution model for F. pringlei was the seasonality of temperature, which had higher values in areas north of the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt. Conclusions: The developmental phases of this species are consistent with those described previously for other monoecious species. Ficus pringlei is only distributed in western Mexico, mainly in tropical dry forests, and is barely registered in Protected Areas. Therefore, it is essential to establish strategies for its conservation. © 2022. All Rights Reserved.",,,,129,,,Acta Bot.

Scuba diving, and an unweighted paired-group method using arithmetic average (UPGMA) analyses were used to determine the main benthic communities found in the shallow rocky and soft-sediment subtidal. To establish the costs of conservation, a social survey was undertaken to identify major users, uses and localities within the MUMPA. A multi-layer database with biological, physical, and social information was generated and further defined 28 approximately 70ha analysis units. Explicit conservation criteria were then determined and four conservation goals defined (protection of 10, 20, 50, and 70% of each of the communities). Seven rocky reef and three soft-sediment communities were identified in the shallow subtidal. Four of the 28 units had high costs of conservation owing to high frequency of use by fishermen, divers, and algae harvesters (main users). These areas represented the highest risks for potential conflicts with the main users. Under the conservation goals of 10% and 20%, 36.8 and 44.4% of the whole marine area were selected as priority areas for protection respectively. The units selected presented low and medium costs of conservation, thus they had low risks of potential conflicts with users. This is the first study that uses a decision support tool to identify priority sites (i.e. units) in the shallow subtidal based on benthic communities and also incorporates social aspects to assess conservation costs. The use of social aspects enables the establishment of management strategies that agree both with biodiversity conservation and socio-economic development of fishing communities. This approach can be replicated for the planning of other coastal MPAs where artisanal fisheries and tourist activities co-occur and interact with conservation efforts. © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,74-86,,1,22,,Aquatic Conserv.

The study was performed within the Pozuelos Biosphere Reserve (Jujuy province, Argentina), which aims to generate socio-economic development compatible with biodiversity conservation. Our study was designed to analyze the dynamics of the Puna vegetation at local scale and assess and monitor the seasonal (dry and wet seasons), interannual, and spatial variation of the vegetation cover, biomass, dominant species, and vegetation indices. Ten vegetation units (with differences in composition, cover, and high and low stratum biomass) were identified at our study site. The diversity of these vegetation units correlated with geomorphology and soil type. In the dry season, the vegetation unit with greatest vegetation cover and biomass was the Festuca chrysophylla grassland, whereas in the wet season, the units with greatest cover and biomass were vegas (peatlands) and short grasslands. The Festuca chrysophylla grasslands and short grasslands were located in areas with clay soils, except peatlands, associated with valleys and coarse-texture soils. The vegetation indices used (NDVI, SAVI, and MSAVI2) were able to differentiate functional types of vegetation and showed a good statistical fit with cover values. Our results suggest that the integrated utilization of remote-sensing tools and field surveys improves the assessment of the Puna vegetation and would allow a periodic monitoring at production unit scale taking into account its spatial and temporal variation. © 2019, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,,,10,191,,Environ.

Dá?ko peat bog is an isolated site of a pine bog woodland dominated by the central-European endemic Pinus uncinata subsp. uliginosa. It is protected as a National Nature Reserve and a Site of Community Importance. We describe major patterns and interesting details of the development of this site since the Late Glacial and provide a historical context for some natural phenomena of high conservation value. Until the High Middle Ages, macroclimate and autogenic succession appear to have been the main drivers of both the local and regional development of vegetation. The pine-dominated Late Glacial vegetation with cold-loving taxa survived until the first millennia of the Holocene. The first Late Glacial and Holocene record of Isoëtes lacustris outside its present range in this country indicates the presence of a cold oligotrophic waterbody in this period. Corylus, Picea and mixed oak forest taxa started to expand already around 10,500 cal. BP. Indicators of a warm oceanic climate appeared around 7700 cal. BP and the AP:NAP ratio increased gradually up to its Holocene maximum close to 99%. Around 6800 cal. BP, the minerotrophic wetland developed into an ombrotrophic bog. Picea, Fagus and Abies started to dominate the pollen assemblage around 5500 cal. BP. Between AD 1100 and 1350, an abrupt change in the vegetation started, which coincided with the High Medieval colonization of the region. The pronounced peak of Pb in the geochemical record between AD 1200 and 1650 reflects extensive metallurgical activities in a wider area. Valuable pine bog woodland appeared only around AD 1500, when pine expanded. This late expansion, also recorded elsewhere, may have been triggered by human activities, which challenges the present non-intervention management of this habitat. The present marginal occurrence of fen species in the bog lagg may be considered a relict of Late Glacial and Early Holocene minerotrophic fen vegetation, the; preservation of which requires active management. This study shows how palaeoecological knowledge helps explain present patterns in the composition of a valuable protected site.

No-take marine reserves do not only act as a conservation tool but also allow an opportunity to study impacts of fishing, by acting as control sites. In addition, well-planned and well-managed no-take marine reserves (NTRs) provide conservation benefits that are essential to marine biodiversity and ecosystem-based management. The Abrolhos Marine National Park, off the tropical Brazilian coast, protects part of the largest coral reef system in the South Atlantic. To investigate the effects of fishing on reef fish richness, abundance, biomass, and functional diversity of the fish assemblage, we compared sites across two protection levels considering the variation in habitats (Fringing Reefs—Protected; Pinnacles Reefs—Protected; and Coastal Reefs—Open Access), using Baited Remote Underwater Stereo-Video systems (stereo-BRUVs). We adjusted generalized additive mixed models of fish assemblage characteristics with protection levels and environmental variables, such as topographic complexity (mean relief and relief variation), visibility, and benthic cover percentage. Inside NTRs, we found higher total biomass and biomass of fishery target species and carnivores, specifically for the Carcharhinidae (sharks) and Epinephelidae (groupers) families, indicating direct fisheries effects on these groups. In contrast, the ecological parameters of non-target fish were positively correlated with habitat characteristics, including mean relief and variance of relief. Moreover, fish functional diversity was higher within NTRs, demonstrating an even distribution of functional entities. The presence of large mobile predators and the overall higher biomass of carnivores inside the NTR indicate the effect of fishing exclusion. Our results point to the value of NTRs to study the effects of fishing and achieve biodiversity conservation and suggest the importance of using remote sampling methods to assess large mobile predators.

In this context, this study aimed to contrast a network of NTRs with comparable fished sites across a coastal biogeographic gradient to investigate the effect of fishing and habitat variability on the abundance and body size of rocky reef fish. We used Baited Remote Underwater stereo-Video (stereo-BRUVs) and Diver Operated stereo-Video (stereo-DOVs) systems to simultaneously sample reef fish and habitat. Model selection and results identified habitat and biogeographic variables, such as distance from shore, as important predictor variables, explaining several aspects of the fish assemblage. The effect of protection was important in determining the abundance and body size of targeted species, in particular for epinephelids and carangids. Conversely, species richness was correlated with habitat complexity but not with protection status. This is the first study using these survey methods in the Southwestern Atlantic, demonstrating how a network of NTRs can provide benchmarks for biodiversity conservation and fisheries management. © 2019 Rolim et al.

Some features of MPAs can enhance conservation goals, such as being completely no-take, well-enforced, large, old and isolated. The no-take area in the Alcatrazes Archipelago, southwestern Atlantic, was recently expanded from four separate small areas of 3 km2 (totalling 12.5 km2) established in 1987, to a large continuous no-take reserve (NTR) of 675 km2 established in August 2016, allowing tourism activities. In this study, the aim was to detect recent changes in the reef fish assemblage following the expansion of the NTR using visual census samples in specific sites around the main island. The surveys were conducted before (2015-2016; n = 230 censuses) and after (2019-2020; n = 320 censuses) the expansion of the NTR. Generalized additive mixed models were fitted to predict fish richness, functional richness, abundance and biomass, considering factors like depth, year and specific sites. The most parsimonious models for mean richness, functional richness, abundance and biomass all included a negative relationship with protection after the expansion, but with an increase of unique species and unique functional entities. Beta diversity values between sites decreased after the expansion with a smaller contribution of nestedness, which indicates a greater sharing of species among the reef areas around the main island. We raised the hypothesis that the decreases in fish fauna metrics could be attributed to several factors: (1) the recency of the NTR expansion, making it difficult to detect the benefits of protection in this short time frame (i.e., less than five years); (2) the type of habitat protected after the expansion, which included mostly sandy bottoms, possibly not promoting connectivity; and (3) the presence of recreational divers in the recently protected area hampering the detection of fish due to possible changes in fish behaviour (mainly for large species with commercial use). By studying one of the largest southwestern Atlantic no-take MPAs, we add evidence that area increment alone is not enough to optimize the protection of marine biodiversity within a short time scale and continuous ecological monitoring is essential for adaptive management, especially in the early stages of MPAs.",,,,,250,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001184769100001,,,,,,,AGE; assessment method; Atlantic Ocean; Atlantic Ocean (Southwest); BEHAVIOR; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; biomass; Conservation; CONSERVATION; DIVING IMPACTS; Environmental protection; Expansion; Fish; Fish assemblages; Fisheries; Ichthyofauna; Marine environment; marine park; Marine protected area; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; MPA; PATTERNS; reef; Reef fishes; Reefs; REVEAL; Rocky reef; SIZE; Southwestern Atlantic; species richness; Specific sites; Subtropical region; Subtropical regions; Tropics; Wildlife refuge,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, recent concerns have appeared about their efficiency to promote pollinator diversity. To increase the efficiency of these interventions, one must acquire a better knowledge of the target species diversity patterns and its sources of variations at different spatial and temporal scales. This study sets out to identify the main sources of variation in wild bee assemblages at a regional scale (450 km2) in mass-flowering crops and semi-natural habitats. During three consecutive sampling years, we monitored bee diversity and its temporal and spatial turnovers. We show that an intensive agricultural landscape in western France can hold nearly 200 wild bee species at a regional scale, i.e. 20 % of the whole bee fauna known in mainland France. Wild bee diversity was 3–4 times lower in oleaginous crops than in semi-natural habitats, with a substantial number of these being social and gregarious species. Spatial and seasonal species turnover in semi-natural habitats explained 28.6 and 34.3 %, respectively, of regional species richness. Given the importance of the spatial component of the bee diversity turnover, we suggest wild bee conservation efforts should be carried out at relevant spatial scales. The spatial turnover was estimated to be steeper within 50 km2 scales. This provides an order of magnitude for the spatial extent of relevant conservation units within which one may concentrate conservation efforts in order to optimise the number of species promoted per surface area. © 2015, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,1195-1214,,5,24,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Kluwer Academic Publishers,,,,Additive partitioning; AGRI-ENVIRONMENT SCHEMES; ALPHA-DIVERSITY; Apoidea; BETA-DIVERSITY; BIODIVERSITY; COMMUNITIES; CONSERVATION; DECLINES; Flowering habitats; Functional trait; HONEY-BEES; LANDSCAPE; Species accumulation curve; Species richness; SPECIES-DIVERSITY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The purposes of this research were (1) to assess the accumulation and distribution of 24 major and trace elements in water, sediments, and muscle and gills of ten native fishes from two natural areas with different degree of protection in the Atlantic Rainforest, (2) to discuss potential origin of the elements related to the land use, and (3) to assess the human health risk for water and muscle fish consumption in general and fisher populations. Major and trace elements were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Concentrations of Ag, Cu, and Se in water and Cr, Cu, Hg, Mn, Ni, and Zn in sediment were higher than the international guidelines for the aquatic biota protection. Muscle Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Hg, and Zn from several species (both studied areas) were above guidelines for human consumption. The bioaccumulation factor (< 6936) was higher in gills than in muscle, and indicated that Andromakhe saguazu, Andromakhe paris, Gymnogeophagus lipokarenos, and Steindachnerina biornata were macroconcentrators of Zn, and Australoheros ykeregua, G. lipokarenos, and Hemiancistrus fuliginosus were macroconcentrators of Se and Sr. The hazard index and target hazard quotient indicated that there is no risk from chronic consumption of water or fish.

Typically, these management strategies require the collection and integration of ecological and socioeconomic data. This problem is illustrated by a case study of Koh Chang National Marine Park, Thailand. Biophysical surveys assessed coral communities in the MPA to derive indices of reef diversity and vulnerability. Social surveys assessed visitor perceptions and satisfaction with conditions encountered on snorkelling tours. Notably, increased coral mortality caused a significant decrease in visitor satisfaction. The two studies were integrated to prescribe zoning and ""Limits of Acceptable Change"" (LAC). As a biophysical indicator, the data suggest a LAC value of 0.35 for the coral mortality index. As a social indicator, the data suggest that a significant fraction of visitors would find a LAC value of under 30 snorkellers per site as acceptable. The draft zoning plan prescribed four different types of zones: (I) a Conservation Zone with no access apart from monitoring or research; (II) Tourism Zones with high tourism intensities at less vulnerable reefs; (III) Ecotourism zones with a social LAC standard of <30 snorkellers per site, and (IV) General Use Zones to meet local artisanal fishery needs. This study illustrates how ecological and socioeconomic field studies in MPAs can be integrated to craft zoning plans addressing multiple objectives. © 2007 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,819-830,,6,39,,Environ.

In Dońana Natural Area, Abalario and the Biological Reserve of Dońana, Spain (one of the most important biodiversity reserves in Europe), the red swamp crayfish was first introduced in 1974 and expanded its range quickly through marsh habitat, but distributed more slowly throughout scrubland ponds. Water persistence, salinity, and substrate can condition the presence of the species in the wild. Before the creation of the Natural Area and the Biological Reserve of Dońana, farmers dug artificial water points in some scrubland ponds to provide water throughout the year for livestock. Once declared a protected area, managers assumed control of the maintenance of the park and opened new water points as a wildlife management tool. The aim of the study presented here was to determine the environmental conditions that favor the spread of crayfish in the temporal ponds of Dońana and whether the occurrence of water points increases the spread of crayfish. For this purpose, we sampled crayfish using a sweep net in 60 randomly selected ponds in two different areas of Dońana. Crayfish occurrence was significantly related to the presence of seasonal streams connecting the ponds with refuge areas and to the presence of artificial water points within the pond. The probability of occurrence of red swamp crayfish in a pond without seasonal streams was more than 5 times lower than that in a pond with seasonal streams. The probability of crayfish occurrence in ponds without artificial water points was 2.5 times lower than that in ponds with artificial water points. We review the advantages and disadvantages of water points as a management tool. © 2014 The Author(s) and 2014 REABIC.",,341-348,,4,5,,Manag. Biol.

Illegal fishing and aggressive practices in insular ecosystems lead to overexploitation and environmental deterioration. Moreover, a lack of scientific data increases uncertainty and prevents adequate monitoring of marine resources. This paper focuses on the integration of a local fishing community into decision-making processes with the aim to potentiate artisanal fishing on the Island of Tenerife (the Canary Islands). The aim is to preserve both the marine ecosystem and promote the socio-economic development of traditional Cofradías (local fisher communities). A qualitative methodological framework, based on participatory problem-solution trees and focus groups, was implemented to identify the main obstacles impeding the sustainable development of the artisanal fishing sector on the island. Collective proposals with policy implications are also discussed. The community involved identified four main issues that are causing an unsustainable island fishery: 1) Overexploitation; 2) Poor self-management of Cofradías and commercialisation problems; 3) Fisher individualism and low co-management strategies, and 4) Illegal fishing increase vs. artisanal fishing decline. Results show the required policy enhancements to tackle those issues with, for instance, the creation of marine protected areas, the promotion of a common islander vision, and an increase in participatory research projects between scientists and fishers. Participants also revealed the necessity to adapt existing regulations to local specificity to reduce the gap between policy makers and local community. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,150-162,,,142,,Ocean Coast.

In this work, we focus on boreal forest landscapes, using Finland as a case study, and taking advantage of a valuable database-the National Forest Inventory (NFI). We explore a multicriteria approach by using a predictive habitat suitability model for three-toed woodpecker (Picoides tridactylus) based on Weights-of-Evidence (WofE) and a combination of remote sensing and field data derived from the Multisource Finnish National Forest Inventory (MS-NFI). The WofE model is a quantitative method used for combining evidence to examine the support for a given hypothesis. WofE involves the estimation of a response variable (favourability for certain habitat occurrence) and a set of predictor variables (e.g. GIS layers containing environmental variables). WofE is based on a log-linear form of Bayes' rule and uses the prior probability distribution and the likelihood of the data to generate a posterior probability distribution. Very few examples exist of WofE being used to predict the spatial distribution of species or communities using biophysical descriptors. This work explores WofE as a tool for rapid biodiversity assessment using georeferenced species information. Since the method is dependent of the indicator species used as a surrogate of biodiversity value it can be applied for assessing biodiversity conditions of both managed and protected areas to help decision-making concerning protection of valuable habitats. Thus, the map of habitat suitability, represented as a range of probabilities of occurrence, offers an objective framework for evaluating the outcomes of different scenarios. Similarly, an objective assessment of habitat suitability provides a rational basis for management decisions incorporating impact on species habitat. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

The system of natural protected areas is composed of different conservation levels: there are the Natural parks, established in the '80 by national or regional institution for the safeguard of natural elements, the Natura 2000 -Habitat 92/43/CEE promoted by European Union, with conservation measures for maintaining or restoring habitats and species of Communitarian interest, and the local parks of supra-municipal interest (namely PLIS) created by single municipalities or their aggregation aimed at limiting the soil sealing process. The hierarchical level of protection has determined differences in the management of the areas which leads to various approaches and strategies for biodiversity conservation and integrity. In order to assess strengths and weaknesses of the legislative initiative, the new management framework should be designed, considering the ecosystem characteristics of each natural protected area to define the future opportunities and critics, rather than, in the extreme case, remove the level of protection due to the absence of valuable ecosystem conditions. The paper provides an operative support to better apply the legislative proposal investigating the dynamics that affect all protected areas using the land take process as a major threat to biodiversity conservation in natural zones. The land take process is explored using the Land Use Change analysis (LUCa) as a possible way to determine the impact and the environmental effects of land transitions. LUCa is also useful to determine the loss of protected zones capacity to support Ecosystem Services. Finally, the assessment of the Ecosystem Services Capacity (ESC) index expresses the ability of each LULC to provide ES and, in particular, the Ecological Integrity, Regulating Services and Provisioning Services. The efficacy of the proposal is tested in the Lombardy Region (Northwest of Italy) where the natural protected areas are more than 500 with a territorial extension of 740 thousand hectares that correspond to 31% of the regional surface. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,245,,,,,,,,Institute of Physics Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 7 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

So, it is important to determine suitable places for tourism to better manage the study area. The aim of this study is to identify potential ecotourism sites using ordered weight averaging (OWA) and fuzzy quantifier algorithms in the north of Fars province, Iran. Required spatial data such as geology, soil, slope land, topographic roughness index (TRI), vegetation, surface water, elevation, protected area, climate, distance to road, and distance to the village were utilized. To prepare ecotourism maps with different confidence levels, eleven ordered weights were applied corresponding to the eleven parameters that were rank-ordered for each parameter after the modified factor weights were applied. Also, the feature selection algorithm (random search and genetic search methods) was used to select the most important parameters to determine the ecotourism map. The results showed that, with decreasing risk (? = 0), almost all of the study area was unsuitable for ecotourism while, with increasing risk (? = 20), all of the study areas were suitable for ecotourism. One of the ecotourism maps prepared with different confidence levels can be suggested based on the different conditions of tourists so that, if the tourist has a limited time, ecotourism maps with a higher degree of confidence levels are recommended and vice versa. This is one of the innovations of the present research. Also, the results of the random search method with the least error show that slope, elevation, climate, distance to river, and distance to road parameters are the most important parameters in preparing the ecotourism map of the region.

Specifically, we seek signs of past and present population size changes and dispersal events and evaluate management and conservation unit status of the populations. We also study the possibility of introgression as the origin of two mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) lineages found and estimate the divergence time of the lineages. Location Northern Eurasia. Methods We analysed 583bp of mtDNA control region domains I and II and 11 microsatellite loci from 13 localities throughout the breeding range. In addition, we used mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI), a barcoding gene, to search for signs of introgression. Results More population differentiation was found from microsatellites than from mtDNA, although differentiation was weak in both markers. Signs of past population growth were observed, in addition to more recent decline in some areas. Both control region and COI sequences revealed two maternal lineages coexisting in Fennoscandia and in north-west Siberia. No signs of introgression were detected. Lineage divergence time was estimated to have occurred during the glacial periods of Pleistocene. Main conclusions Slight differences in mtDNA and microsatellite differentiation and diversity may reflect different features - such as the mutation rate and effective population size - of the markers used, or female-biased dispersal pattern and high male site-fidelity of the species. The coexistence of the two mitochondrial lineages is most likely a consequence of post-glacial mixing of two refugial Pleistocene populations. Based on genetic information alone, global conservation concerns are not imminent. However, fast decline of a marginal Bothnian Bay population and the smallness and remoteness of a Central Yakutian population warrant conservation actions. © 2011 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,704-716,,7,18,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Atlantic Ocean; Baltic Sea; Bothnian Bay; Calidris temminckii; COMPUTER-PROGRAM; CONSEQUENCES; CONSERVATION; conservation biogeography; Conservation biogeography; conservation management; conservation status; cytochrome; cytochrome c oxidase subunit I; Cytochrome c oxidase subunit I; dispersal; divergence; DIVERGENCE; DNA; endangered species; Eurasia; genetic differentiation; genetic marker; genetic structure; Gulf of Bothnia; ICE AGES; introgression; MARKERS; microsatellites; Microsatellites; mitochondrial DNA; mtDNA; MtDNA; phylogeography; Phylogeography; Pleistocene; population decline; population growth; population size; population structure; Population structure; POPULATION-GROWTH; Russian Federation; Sakha; site fidelity; SOFTWARE; species conservation; TESTS; vicariance; wader,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

For deepwater marine fishes, the characteristics of nursery areas are generally unknown. The objectives of this study were to examine a potential nursery area for juvenile Pacific ocean perch (POP, Sebastes alutus), determine the specific microhabitats used by juvenile POP, and compare the distribution of juvenile POP to adults. Juvenile POP habitat use was examined at three sites near Samalga Pass in the Aleutian Islands. Presence or absence and density estimates of juvenile POP were made from underwater video collected at 11 transects and from 6 bottom tows at the study sites. Juvenile POP were found predominantly in mixed sand and boulder substrata to the exclusion of most other habitat types. Juvenile POP were found within one body length of complex structure such as boulders, upright coral or sponges. There were higher densities of juvenile POP at the site south of Samalga Pass than at the other sites, while adult POP were found in highest abundance at the site north of Samalga Pass. An examination of large-scale patterns of juvenile and adult POP distribution indicates that juveniles use shallower depth zones on the continental shelf. Combined with the geographic separation we observed in this study, this suggests juvenile POP use nursery habitats that are different from adult POP. Conservation and management of this species should address the habitat requirements of juveniles to maintain the goal of healthy adult populations. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

The degradation of forest ecosystems has driven the adoption of mechanisms for their conservation and sustainable use. Objective: To identify the state of knowledge regarding oak forests in Mexico associated with public policy mechanisms for conservation and use: Natural protected Areas (NPA), Payment for Ecosystem Services (PES), and Community Forest Management (CFM). Materials and methods: The methodological framework of search, evaluation, synthesis, and analysis was used. Information was obtained from Scopus, Scielo, and Redalyc platforms. The found documents were subjected to an inclusion and exclusion process based on criteria of temporality and primary sources. Results and discussion: A total of 662 studies were identified, of which 37 published between 2000 and 2022 were analyzed. Of these, 17 are related to Community Forest Management (CFM), examining characteristics of forest communities and socio-ecological effects; 13 addressed topics related to NPA, focusing on the conservation biology of flora and fauna; and two contributions centered on PES, highlighting analyses and evaluations of socio-environmental effects. Lastly, five studies involved two or three of the mentioned instruments. Conclusions: The analysis of oak forests concerning public policies for conservation and sustainable use has significantly increased. The studies indicate that such policies contribute to reducing the risk of adverse changes in these forests. Due to the ecological, social, and economic importance of oak forests, it is recommended to understand them through socio-ecological systems and transdisciplinary approaches. © 2024 Universidad Autonoma Chapingo.

To assess the effectiveness of a coastal protected area, we estimated the land-use change (LUC) within and outside of the Pantanos de Centla Biosphere Reserve (PCBR) and interviewed key stakeholders to identify the main stressors causing LUC. The native vegetation cover under the PCBR protection decreased by 65% over 24 years; whereas agriculture and livestock lands doubled, even within the core conservation areas of the PCBR. The greatest loss was in the flooded forest (48%), where the reduction was similar in and around the reserve. The effectiveness of reserve management was affected by drivers of land use change, which include agricultural and livestock enterprises that are run by government programs. Effective management of the PCBR has been undermined by poor management practices, limited capacity and resources, and inadequate zoning design.

This study explores the human dimensions of MPA planning in Mozambique by engaging local resource users in a series of structured discussions about marine resource use, pressures on marine resources, ways to address such pressures, and the potential positive and negative impacts of MPAs on the management of marine resources and livelihoods, from a community perspective. Findings show that the groups and communities interviewed are at best ambivalent towards MPAs while at the same time supporting increased government regulation, including conventional fisheries management measures. The study suggests that without significant community involvement in the choice of marine conservation tools, the drive to establish MPAs to achieve biodiversity conservation and tourism development goals may be counterproductive, at least in terms of poverty alleviation and sustainable resource use. It argues that a wider range of marine conservation approaches and tools needs to be considered in addition to MPAs, taking into consideration local views and institutional capacities. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,55-65,,1,54,,Ocean Coast.

Location: The NE Atlantic deep sea (UK and Irish extended continental shelf limits). Methods: MaxEnt modelling of three listed habitats (Lophelia pertusa (Linnaeus, 1758) reef (LpReef), Pheronema carpenteri (WyvilleThomson, 1869) aggregations (PcAggs) and Syringammina fragilissima (Brady, 1883) aggregations (SfAggs)), with some pre-selection of variables by generalized additive modelling. Models are validated using repeated 70/30 build/test data splits using AUC and threshold-dependent assessment methods. Predicted distribution maps are used to assess the adequacy of existing area closures for the protection of listed habitats and to assess percentage representation of each community within existing MPA networks. Results: Model performances are rated as fair (LpReef), excellent (PcAggs) and good (SfAggs). Current closures are focused on the protection of cold-water coral reef and incidentally capture some SfAggs suitable environments, but largely fail to protect PcAggs. Considering the wider network of MPAs in the study region, approximately 23% (LpReef), 2% (PcAggs) and 6% (SfAggs) of the area predicted as suitable for each habitat respectively is contained within an MPA. Main conclusions: To date, decisions on area closures for the protection of 'listed' deep-sea habitats have been based on maps of recorded presence of species that are taken as being indicative of that habitat. Predictive habitat modelling may provide a useful method of better estimating the extent of listed habitats, providing direction for future MPA establishment and a means of assessing MPA network effectiveness against politically set percentage targets. Given the coarse resolution of the model, percentages should be taken as maximal figures, with habitat occurrence likely to be less prevalent in reality. © 2012 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,433-445,,4,19,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Anthozoa; Atlantic Ocean; Atlantic Ocean (Northeast); COMMUNITY STRUCTURE; continental shelf; CONTINENTAL-MARGIN; coral; CORAL LOPHELIA-PERTUSA; coral reef; deep sea; Deep-sea; foraminifera; geographical distribution; habitat conservation; habitat modelling; Habitat modelling; HEXACTINELLID SPONGE; Ireland; Lophelia pertusa; marine conservation; Marine conservation; marine park; marine protected areas; Marine protected areas; MaxEnt; model validation; NE Atlantic; Pheronema carpenteri; PHERONEMA-CARPENTERI; PORCUPINE-SEABIGHT; ROCKALL TROUGH; SEABIGHT NORTHEAST ATLANTIC; SPECIES DISTRIBUTIONS; sponge; Syringammina fragilissima; United Kingdom; XENOPHYOPHORES PROTISTA,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

With groundtruthing, these models may be found to successfully predict patches of occurrence, but whether all patches are part of a larger interbreeding metapopulation is much harder to assert. Here we use a North Atlantic deep-sea case study to demonstrate how dispersal models may help to complete the picture. Pheronema carpenteri is a deep-sea sponge that, in aggregation, forms a vulnerable marine ecosystem in the Atlantic Ocean. Published predictive distribution models from United Kingdom and Irish waters have now gained some support from targeted groundtruthing, but known aggregations are distantly fragmented with little predicted habitat available in-between. Dispersal models were used to provide spatial predictions of the potential connectivity between these patches. As little is known of P. carpenteri’s reproductive methods, twenty-four model set-ups with different dispersal assumptions were simulated to present a large range of potential dispersal patterns. The results suggest that up to 53.1% of the total predicted habitat may be reachable in one generation of dispersal from known populations. Yet, even in the most dispersive scenario, the known populations in the North (Hatton-Rockall Basin) and the South (Porcupine Sea Bight) are predicted to be unconnected, resulting in the relative isolation of these patches across multiple generations. This has implications for Ireland’s future conservation efforts as they may have to conserve patches from more than one metapopulation. This means that conserving one patch may not demographically support the other, requiring additional attentions to ensure that marine protected areas are ecologically coherent and sustainable. This example serves as a demonstration of a combined modeling approach where the comparison between predicted distribution and dispersal maps can highlight areas with higher conservation needs. © Copyright © 2019 Ross, Wort and Howell.",,,,,6,,Front.

In the present work, we examined, by demographic tools, the most exhaustive photo-identification database available for the Mediterranean fin whale (Balaenoptera physalus) population, recorded by Tethys Research Institute between 1990 and 2007 in the Western Ligurian Sea. A total of 31,782 km were covered and 548 fin whale sightings were recorded. The occurrence of the target species was uneven across the years and months: an anomalous reduction of sightings occurred between 2001 and 2004. Moreover, the target species is likely to concentrate in the study area in the summer months and probably moves to other areas in the early autumn. Using the photo-identification technique, 431 different individuals were photoidentified, but only 318 of them were sized: 6 calves (?10 meters), 33 immature (10-15 m), 261 adolescent-adult (>15 m) and 18 olds (?20 m). For the first time the size of the fin whale subpopulation in the Pelagos Sanctuary was obtained by photo-identification and mark-recapture techniques. These techniques were used to estimate the size of the sub-population composed by individuals >15 meters as 539 fin whales (95% confidence interval = 345-732) over the period 1990-1999. The number of calves was likely underestimated, as the sighting period (late spring-summer) was shifted with respect to the peak of births (late autumn). To fill this gap of knowledge we propose a simple mathematical model for the yearly dynamics of calves. After correcting the number of calves, a static life history table for the period 1990-2007 was set out. Our results highlight the highest survival proportions between calf and immature (61.1%) and the minimum between adolescent-adult and old (2.5%) vital stages. The overall life expectancy is estimated to be 6.3 years while the life expectancy of individuals entering the adolescent-adult stage is 14.3 years.

Moreover, they are part of the ancient chain of crystalline blocks named ""Eastern Arc"" that represents one of the most important areas of Africa in terms of endemic animal and plant species. However, in the Eastern Arc, while forests have been widely investigated and are often safeguarded by the institution of protected areas, montane grasslands have received little attention yet, in terms both of biological research and of conservation, and are threatened by rapidly expanding of cultivations and timber plantations. The present study is aimed to improve knowledge about the composition of Amphibian and Reptile communities of two sites in the southern part of the Udzungwa plateau. The field research was carried out from December 2004 to January 2005 by means of VES and pitfall traps with drift fences, and also by opportunistically searches. The check-list of the first site (placed near Bomalang'ombe village) updates and integrates the preliminary data collected and published by Menegon et alii (2006). The check-list of the second site (placed near Mapanda village), on our knowledge, represents the first herpetological check-list for the area. On the basis of the species accumulation curves, species richness estimates and effort simulations run for each site, the Bomalang'ombe check-list seems to characterize the community of the area satisfactorily in the considered season, while the Mapanda check-list has to be considered preliminary. However, both study sites exhibit a biological value worthy of attention by the conservation point of view, since both of them show the occurrence of taxa strictly endemic or near-endemic to the Eastern Arc (in some cases endemic to the Udzungwa block and also strictly endemic to the site that represents the type locality) and the occurrence of at least one species vulnerable to the extinction threat. Finally, the occurrence of highly specialized grass-dwelling species suggest that the montane grasslands of the Udzungwa have a long evolutionary history, therefore deserving more scientific and conservation efforts. © 2010 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.

However, no assessment exists on whether European MPAs comply with the legal standards set out by the Convention. Here, we focus on public authorities’ websites on MPAs as tools for promoting transparency, public involvement, and democratic processes. We assessed the websites of 61 European MPAs in thirteen countries using a survey structured by the three pillars of the Convention: access to information, participation in decision-making, and access to justice. We show that while most websites are used to disseminate information, they do not serve yet as participatory instruments. Very few have an area dedicated to public participation in decision-making and, when available, they provide scarce information on the outcomes of public involvement. Most websites provide general information on the MPA conservation objectives, but less than half provide access to reports on the results of management. Few websites provide information on available means to challenge unlawful acts. Websites’ potential as one of the most widely used, easily accessible, cost-effective sources of information and means for interaction with the general public should be better exploited. Increasing and facilitating the ability of the public to participate in MPA processes is key to ensure MPA success and environmental justice. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,161,,Mar.

One of the most commonly promoted approaches is to monitor the status and trends of performance indicators and modify management when the status of an indicator is inconsistent with a target. But the challenge with indicator-based approaches is interpretation in the absence of an experimental (true or quasi) design. A more structured approach with greater inferential strength because the implicit adoption of experimental elements into the sampling design is the adaptive management approach promoted by Walters (1986). Another difference between adaptive management and indicator-based approaches is that the latter leads to reactive management interventions rather than evaluating alternative management options even in the absence of management failure. Unfortunately, adaptive management can be challenging to adopt in a scientifically rigorous way for at least two reasons. First, the cost to undertake large-scale experimental manipulations can be substantial. Second, stakeholders, such as commercial fishers or traditional villagers, may be unwilling to modify their livelihoods for experimental purposes even if learnings may result in more sustainable and cost-effective use of resources. As argued convincingly by one proponent of evidence-based management, adaptive management may still be applied efficiently to routine management activities. Routine management activities inside MPAs can include enforcement, raising environmental awareness amongst visitors, guiding visitors, installing vessel moorings and developing snorkel trails or nature trails through sensitive coastal vegetation. Applying adaptive management to these activities could lead to more scientifically sound and efficient management outcomes. © 2020",,,,,56,,J. Nat.

Monitoring is one tool that can help with this. One component of monitoring that is challenging for managers is the statistical treatment of monitoring data. Commonly used approaches, such as null hypothesis tests, are conceptually challenging and operationally complex, potentially leading to wrong conclusions and poor decisions. A more straightforward approach is parameter estimation with confidence intervals. Parameter estimation focuses on estimating the size of change or difference (an 'effect size') in a response variable and comparing this with a pre-defined effect size called a management threshold. Confidence intervals indicate the level of precision in estimates of change, which make for more balanced conclusions. Parameter estimation is also conducive to graphing, which can facilitate interpretation and communication to non-scientists. In this paper, I demonstrate three examples of parameter estimation and discuss their relative strengths and weaknesses. By presenting these examples, I hope to encourage managers to adopt statistical approaches that allow them to quantify environmental change in a way that will contribute to defensible conclusions, facilitate timely decision making and be understood by stakeholders. © IUCN - International Union for the Conservation of Nature.",,67-80,,1,24,,Parks,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: IUCN - International Union for the Conservation of Nature,,,,Confidence interval; Effect size; Management threshold; Marine park; Monitoring; Parameter estimation; Statistical analysis,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The Antarctic Treaty (1959, in force 1961) resulted from the alignment of common international interests (e.g., maintenance of peace, freedom of scientific investigation) with the national interests of original signatory states (e.g., ‘freezing’ of diverging positions on territorial claims). Later instruments adopted by Antarctic Treaty states replicated this scheme and allowed agreement on, among other issues, environmental protection, and marine ecosystem conservation. This paper draws on an examination of the series of spatial protection tools in force established by the main Antarctic Treaty system bodies, and observations conducted in annual decision-making meetings. Issues of conflict emerge as the size, complexity, and conservation ambitions of spatial protection tools increase, resulting in a weakening of the proposals and lack of consensus. This paper argues that establishing spatial protection tools reflects an intent by Antarctic Treaty states to engage with the Antarctic Treaty system for the longer term; however, the establishment trajectory of spatial protection tools is sensitive to resource interests and broader Antarctic geopolitics. Ongoing difficulties of Antarctic Treaty fora to reach consensus on the spatial protection tools they agreed to establish – and on other important issues – bring into question the current effectiveness of the Antarctic Treaty system. The path to recovery requires Antarctic Treaty states to negotiate in good faith with a view to finding consensus, while upholding the environmental objectives of Antarctic Treaty system instruments.

To date freshwater aquatic ecosystems have seldom been considered in this process. How much of a difference does it make when they are considered as well? This study examined the conservation of riverine biodiversity within 17 assessment units contained by the catchment areas of five perennial rivers flowing through Kruger National Park and two seasonal rivers that are largely contained within this park. Physical river types, fish species and invertebrate families or genera were used as surrogates of riverine biodiversity. Conservation planning software was used to select an optimal set of planning units to represent and maintain riverine biodiversity. The current spatial configuration of Kruger National Park, largely an accident of history, is particularly poor when assessed against the objective of conserving riverine biodiversity. Several alternative layouts are examined. These options are theoretical since there is little current opportunity to reassign land uses in the region. This study shows that substantially improved layouts for both riverine and terrestrial biodiversity are possible, under the constraint of the same total area under protection. The study also shows that even these optimal layouts are only partially successful in efforts to conserve fully representative samples of riverine biodiversity. Because of the longitudinal connectivity of rivers, conservation strategies that extend beyond protected areas are essential. Explicit conservation visions, targets and strategies need to be included in integrated water resource management plans. Based on the results of this study, nine recommendations are provided for increasing the effectiveness of current and future protected areas in conserving riverine biodiversity. These are to use systematic conservation planning to make biodiversity benefits explicit; mend the disconnect between terrestrial and freshwater conservation; use multiple surrogates wherever possible; be strategic about the collection and management of primary data; strive for maximum hydrologic connectivity; resist development pressure; foster good relationships across park fences; where relevant, pursue multi-national cooperation at the basin scale; and engage the value debate and resolve awareness and capacity constraints. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

To determine the potential effectiveness of no-take reserves as a fisheries conservation tool for American lobster (Homarus americanus), I quantified the consequences to population structures of two small, no-take reserves (Round Island and Duck Islands) in Bonavista Bay, Newfoundland, during 1997-1999. Although this study concerned only the first 3 years following reserve establishment, there were obvious differences in lobster population parameters inside and outside no-take reserves. At the Round Island reserve, population density was high and stable over time, and female and male size increased, as did the proportion of ovigerous females. However, at the Duck Islands reserve, population density increased dramatically between 1997 and 1998, and male size increased over time, but there was no change in female size or in the proportion of ovigerous females. Lobster density, female and male size, and the proportion of ovigerous females were greater within the Round Island reserve compared to an adjacent harvested area. At the Duck Islands, females and males were larger in size within the reserve, but I found no difference in lobster density or the proportion of females that were ovigerous between the reserve and an adjacent harvested area. Taken together, these data suggest that no-take reserves offered increased survival to lobsters (particularly at the Round Island site) and thereby may, over time, provide benefits to the local fishery. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

The aim of the present study was to estimate the impact of these aspects on RSV-associated hospitalisations (RSVH) costs stratified by age group between pre-COVID-19 seasons and 2020/21 RSV season. Methods: We compared the incidence, the median costs, and total RSVH costs from the national health insurance perspective in children < 24 months of age during the COVID-19 period (2020/21 RSV season) with a pre-COVID-19 period (2014/17 RSV seasons). Children were born and hospitalised in the Lyon metropolitan area. RSVH costs were extracted from the French medical information system (Programme de Médicalisation des Systémes d'Information). Results: The RSVH-incidence rate per 1000 infants aged < 3 months decreased significantly from 4.6 (95 % CI [4.1; 5.2]) to 3.1 (95 % CI [2.4; 4.0]), and increased in older infants and children up to 24 months of age during the 2020/21 RSV season. Overall, RSVH costs for RSVH cases aged below 2 years old decreased by €201,770 (31 %) during 2020/21 RSV season compared to the mean pre-COVID-19 costs. Conclusions: The sharp reduction in costs of RSVH in infants aged < 3 months outweighed the modest increase in costs observed in the 3–24 months age group. Therefore, conferring a temporal protection through passive immunisation to infants aged < 3 months should have a major impact on RSVH costs even if it results in an increase of RSVH in older children infected later in life. Nevertheless, stakeholders should be aware of this potential increase of RSVH in older age groups presenting with a wider range of disease to avoid any bias in estimating the cost-effectiveness of passive immunisation strategies. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,3796-3800,,25,41,,Vaccine,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,age; Age shift; Article; child; cohort analysis; coronavirus disease 2019; cost control; cost effectiveness analysis; female; France; health care cost; hospital cost; Hospitalisation costs; hospitalization; human; incidence; infant; length of stay; Lyon; major clinical study; male; medical information system; metropolitan area; national health insurance; observational study; pandemic; passive immunization; preschool child; real time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction; Respiratory syncytial virus; respiratory syncytial virus infection,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The database is composed of 28 anthropogenic and environmental layers categorized into seven Blue Economy sectors. The database is analyzed with a set of geospatial models aimed at understanding the intensity distribution of human activities at sea and the potential marine use conflicts emerging from the aggregation of human activities. Ecological resources were characterized in terms of marine mammals, lobsters, commercially important and threatened fish species, and pelagic birds and mapped as biodiversity hotspots using geographic cluster analysis. Results show that the most intensely used sea areas are located along the northeastern coast of Bangladesh, as well as in the Swatch of No Ground (SoNG) area, with maximum Marine Use Intensity (MUI) scores ranging from 5 to 8. Offshore waters of Saint Martin's Island have higher MUI scores (? 5) as well. The pairwise spatial conflict analysis shows that nature protection sites particularly SoNG Marine Protected Area (MPA), Nijhum Dwip Marine Reserve (MR), and Saint Martin's Island MPA are exposed to the high Marine Use Conflicts (MUC) induced by fishing and shipping activities. Fishing operations generate the highest MUC value (MUC = 30) in SoNG MPA, whereas shipping activities produce the highest MUC value (MUC = 24) in Nijhum Dwip MR. Both of the MPAs exhibit 6 to 12 MUC scores induced by shipping. The proposed database together with the illustrated analytical techniques used in this study and key findings can provide the first understanding of the priorities for Ecosystem Based Management of Bangladesh's marine space and provide valuable insights on the urgency for MSP process in the country.

In 2016-2017 we conducted a survey of the Gydansky State Nature Reserve and adjacent areas, counted and assessed the quality of habitats of Anseriformes and their threats. The results of the study and the data volume obtained have proved the effectiveness of using ultralight aviation to study a hard-to-reach and vast area. We elaborated the methodology of aerial surveys and counting, the technique of population abundance extrapolation based on modern statistical methods and the use of Landsat images. According to the data obtained, we created GIS databases on abundance, biotopic distribution, key conservation areas of Anseriformes and threats. On their basis, it will be possible to develop a scheme of long-term monitoring of Anseriformes, and specific recommendations on the protection regime. By preliminary assessing the habitat quality on the selected plots, we found that Anseriformes form main groupings on salt marshes, although their areas on the Gydansky Peninsula are not large. The preliminary study of the feeding spectrum of herbivory Anseriformes (Anser, Branta, Cygnus) showed that on three studied sites, a significant proportion of their diet is occupied by common plant species of salt marshes (Carex subspathacea + Puccinellia phryganodes). Studies of the pastures quality on salt marshes on molting sites and on control sites demonstrated that Anser albifrons and Branta bernicla provoked a decrease in phytomass of dead grass by an average of 5.3 times. This increases the pasture quality and prevents turfness. On the molting sites examined, the phytomass of the main feeding plants was on average 4.6 times less than on the control sites. However, we can not consider it as a negative influence, since the constant pasture grazing stimulates the vegetation growth. Based on data obtained during the preliminary study, we established the impact of Anseriformes on invertebrates. We found that on control sites, the number of spider species was two times higher than on molting sites, and their number was four times higher than on molting sites. There were no significant differences in the Acarini number. The presence of mass concentrations of Aneriformes influences the structure of dominance in the microarthropod communities. We did not establish the influence of the Anseriformes concentrations on the diversity and species composition of Coleoptera and Heteroptera. Although on sites of mass concentration of Anseriformes, the number of Heteroptera predators greatly reduced (in 3-23 times). We showed that Ursus maritimus have became an important factor that influence the Anseriformes abundance, especially colonial species. We distinguished the nine sites which are the most important for Anderiformes. Within these areas, annual monitoring of Anseriformes using ultralight aviation is most relevant. On the distinguished key sites outside the Gydansky State Nature Reserve, it would be advisable to create regional-level complex sanctuaries with complete hunting ban. The presence of people and transport in protected areas will create an increase in the disturbance factor and poaching. It is necessary to strengthen the protection regime and conduct raids to combat poaching both in the Gydansky State Nature Reserve and on distinguished key sites. We propose the use of ultralight aviation as the most effective method for these targets. The results of obtained aerial surveys showed that the highest abundance of Polysticta stelleri, Somateria spectabilis and Clangula huemalis, the maximal concentrations of molting Cygnus bewickii, Anser albifrons, A. Fabalis and Branta bernicla were recorded on Neupokoev Island and Vilkitsky Island. In this regard, we assert the necessity to revise the existing boundaries of the Gydansky State Nature Reserve by including into the Protected Area the following sites: Vilkitsky Island together with the Vostochnaya Spit and Shvede Bay, the Neupokoev Island together with the Neupokoeva Spit and water areas adjacent to these islands at a distance of 5 km from the coastline. © 2018 Nature Conservation Research.

Fishers' perception has a great potential to be an alternative source of information as it is present in every fishery, is inexpensive and allows analysis at large spatial scales. However, fishers' perception is influenced by psychological factors that can generate bias. This study compares fishers' perception and direct assessment of current and historical abundances of two benthic species that are targeted in the artisanal fishery of Central Chile (the loco and the keyhole limpet), in order to assess the value of the method for artisanal fisheries. The analysis also considered different management regimes (open access areas and areas with territorial rights) and two periods of time (approximately 15 years apart) to determine the (a) the consistency of fishers' perception for assessment of current abundance and (b) the potential use for retrospective assessment. We also compared official landing reports with direct assessments in order to assess the reliability of fisheries data. Fishers' perception of loco abundance generally agreed with direct assessment in fishing villages, management regimes and periods of time. In the case of the keyhole limpet, fishers perceived abundances higher than those registered in direct assessments. The different patterns observed between resources can be related to the relative importance of each fishery. Fishers were not accurate in recalling past abundances retrospectively and official reports showed dramatic mismatches with direct assessment in catch abundance and composition. Fishers' perception is a potential source of information to assess the current abundance of targeted species. However, it requires case by case investigation and evaluation before it can be applied and the information properly integrated in fisheries management practices. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd.

Consequently, these rias have been included in the Nature 2000 Network as a Special Conservation Zone. The aims of this study were to describe the meiofauna spatial structure in terms of diversity and abundance of major taxa, as well as its relationship with the environmental characteristics in the Ria de Foz nature reserve. For this aim, environmental gradients and distribution patterns of intertidal meiobenthic communities at the Ria de Foz nature reserve were studied using multivariate methods. Ria de Foz showed to be a complex transitional habitat with significant changes in its environment along the estuarine gradient. An abundant and rich meiofauna community was reported at Ria de Foz. A total of 21 higher taxa of meiofauna were found. The most common taxa were nematodes, copepods, ostracods and turbellarians. Three clear different meiobenthic communities were defined. These three communities showed a clear spatial distribution pattern along the estuarine gradient. Moreover, a high degree of similarity between distribution patterns of meiobenthic communities and previously studied macrobenthic communities was found. Regarding the role of environmental factors shaping meiobenthic community distribution patterns distance to the river mouth was the environmental variable that best explained meiobenthic community structure and distribution. Therefore, changes on hydrodynamics that affect environmental factors related to the estuarine gradient will change the distribution pattern and diversity of benthic communities. This work provides the first information about meiobenthos diversity and structure in the Ria de Foz nature reserve and should be useful for future management and conservation plans on this and other similar protected areas.

In the last few years, there has been an increasing number of studies on species distribution modelling which can be easily used to test the efficiency of reserve networks. Unfortunately, this effort has been focused on the so called charismatic species. Our main goal is to test the effectiveness of the Natura 2000 network by using non-charismatic species. We determined potential distribution patterns for 18 lichen species in Spain and evaluated the effectiveness of the Natura 2000 network in protecting them. Models were implemented with ENFA (Ecological-Niche Factor Analysis) because this modelling approach only requires presence data since the reliability of absence data is really poor. Habitat suitability maps were obtained and high suitability areas were characterised using ten environmental predictors. Maps of areas of high suitability were overlaid with the Natura 2000 network cover, considering the different biogeographical regions present in mainland Spain. The effectiveness of the Natura 2000 was quite low in most species. The analysis per region showed that Mediterranean lichen species growing in forests are better protected than species found in coastal, drier and warmer areas. Our results indicate that the Natura 2000 network, a protection system based on vascular plants, does not guarantee the protection of Mediterranean lichen species. Thus, this type of gap analysis and especially the inclusion of ""non-charismatic"" organisms such as lichens should be considered in studies to define protected areas. © 2012 Elsevier GmbH.",,01-Sep,,1,21,,J.

In such areas, ecological systems are preserved in their natural state, which allows them to protect animal populations. In several protected areas, the Coleoptera biodiversity is studied as an integral part of the ecological monitoring of the ecosystem state. This study was aimed to describe the Carabidae fauna in one of the largest protected areas of European Russia, namely National Park “Smolny”. (2) Methods: The study was conducted in April–September 2008, 2009, 2017–2021. A variety of ways was used to collect beetles (by hand, caught in light traps, pitfall traps, and others). Seasonal dynamics of the beetle abundance were studied in various biotopes. Coordinates were fixed for each observation. (3) Results: The dataset contains 1994 occurrences. In total, 32,464 specimens of Carabidae have been studied. The dataset contains information about 131 species of Carabidae beetles.

The arguments supporting marine reserves are often based on both the nonmarket values of ecological amenities marine reserves provide and the pragmatic cost-saving advantages relating to reserve monitoring and enforcement. Marine reserves are, however, only one of a suite of possible policy options that might be used to achieve conservation and fisheries management objectives, and have rarely been the focus of rigorous policy analyses that consider a full range of economic costs and benefits, including the transaction costs of management. If credible analyses are not undertaken, there is a danger that current enthusiasm for marine reserves may wane as economic performance fails to meet presumed potential. Fully accounting for the value of ecological services flowing from marine reserves requires consideration of increased size and abundance of focal species within reserve boundaries, emigration of target species from reserves to adjacent fishing grounds, changes in ecological resilience, and behavioural responses of fishers to spatially explicit closures. Expanding policy assessments beyond standard cost-benefit analysis (CBA) also requires considering the impact of social capital on the costs of managing fisheries. In the short term, the amount of social capital that communities possess and the capacity of the state to support the rights of individuals and communities will affect the relative efficiency of marine reserves. Reserves may be the most efficient policy option when both community and state capacity is high, but may not be when one and/or the other is weak. In the longer term, the level of social capital that a society possesses and the level of uncertainty in ecological and social systems will also impact the appropriate level of devolution or decentralization of fisheries governance. Determining the proper balance of the state and the community In tropical fisheries governance will require broad comparative studies of marine reserves and alternative policy tools.",,65-85,,1,4,,Fish Fish.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Co-management; cost-benefit analysis; Cost-benefit analysis; environmental policy; fishery management; Institutional analysis; marine park; Marine reserves; Martes; Nonmarket valuation; Social capital; socioeconomic conditions,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Just as for most other tortoise species, the once common Chaco tortoise, Chelonoidis chilensis (Testudinidae), is under constant threat across it distribution in Argentina, Bolivia and Paraguay. Despite initial qualitative description of the species distribution and further individual reports of new locations for the species, there is no description of the species distribution in probabilistic terms.With this work we aim to produce an updated predictive distribution map for C. chilensis to serve as a baseline management tool for directed strategic conservation planning. Methods. We fitted a spatially expanded logistic regression model within the Bayesian framework that accounts for uncertainty on presence-only and generated pseudo-absence data into the parameter estimates. We contrast the results with reported data for the national networks of protected areas to assess the inclusion of the species in area-based conservation strategies. Results. We obtained maps with predictions of the occurrence of the species and reported the model's uncertainty spatially. The model suggests that potential suitable habitats for the species are continuous across Argentina, West Paraguay and South Bolivia, considering the variables, the scale and the resolution used. The main limiting variables were temperature-related variables, and precipitation in the reproductive period. Discussion. Given the alarming low density and coverage of protected areas over the distribution area of C. chilensis, the map produced provides a baseline to identify areas where directed strategic conservation management actions would be more efficient for this and other associated species. © 2015 Ruete and Leynaud.",,,,10,2015,,PeerJ,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: PeerJ Inc.,,,,Argentina; Article; AUC; Bayesian inference; biological model; Bolivia; Chaco tortoise; Chelonoidis chilensis; climate; environmental parameters; geographical variation (species); MODEL; nonhuman; Paraguay; Presence-only data; Protected areas; species conservation; species distribution; Species distribution model; species diversity; temperature; tortoise; water availability,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

These populations have a strong dependence on recruitment, which constitutes a risk to stock conservation and the sustainability of the commercially exploited species. Bivalve sanctuaries comprising no-take areas can promote the restocking of large coastal areas as a result of the high fecundity and the potentially long-distance larval dispersal of bivalves. The present study explores a novel spatio-temporal approach to investigate suitable locations for bivalve sanctuaries, aimed at protecting and enhancing stocks along the Algarve coast in southern Portugal. In the context of small-scale fisheries, bivalve dredging constitutes an important socio-economic activity. Three bivalve species are targeted: the striped venus (Chamelea gallina), the donax clam (Donax trunculus), and the surf clam (Spisula solida). Data gathered from 36 bivalve fishing surveys conducted over three decades (1986–2015) were analysed using geostatistical methods, accounting for temporal and spatial autocorrelation to produce continuous prediction maps of species distribution for each survey. The approach taken permitted the use of all scattered historical data collected by different methods. The predictions were then used to summarize and illustrate the spatial distribution of species across time, in terms of average biomass, variability, and maximum potential biomass, and to delimit the areas as a function of the species persistence (recurrent, occasional, or rare). The temporal patterns through space were further investigated using empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis. The areas accounting for 80% of the species biomass were also estimated. Results of this set of analyses led to the proposal of locations for establishing bivalve sanctuaries, aimed at enhancing the stocks of commercial bivalve species in the long term. Such an innovative spatio-temporal approach and management strategy is replicable in other fishing resources and geographic areas. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,1271-1282,,6,28,,Aquatic Conserv.

Anthropogenic and environmental factors affect this biodiversity, including floristics and, consequently, the seed dispersal syndrome. The objective was to evaluate the influence of environmental factors on floristic composition, seed dispersal syndrome and potential for wild fauna refuge, especially birds of the Cracidae family, in a Private Reserve of Natural Heritage (RPPN) in the Atlantic Forest. The study was carried out in a forest fragment of 631 ha in the RPPN Fazenda Macedônia in Ipaba, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Twenty-three plots (10 × 50 m) were inventoried at three sampling levels with the plots being selectively distributed, considering the different geoenvironments. Environmental factors were divided into edaphic (soil chemical and physical) and landscape (altitude, slope, terrain exposure and edge distance) variables. Species composition and plot groupings by smallest dissimilarity were calculated. The dispersal syndrome and the type of zoochoric dispersal were determined for tree species. The species dispersed by birds had records of occurrence in the verified cracid diet. Two hundred and forty-nine species from 138 genera and 46 tree families were recorded. The dissimilarity between plots ranged from 0.4 to 1.0 forming four groups. Floristic composition was influenced by soil variables (soil pH, available potassium and magnesium, exchangeable aluminum, effective and potential CEC, remaining phosphorus, organic matter and silt) and landscape (altitude). The zoochoric dispersal syndrome was the most frequent, with ornithochory (68.09%) being the most important within this group. In the RRPN, 35 species of tree were recorded in the cracids diet. Tree species composition of varied with edaphic variables and with altitude. The wide distribution of species recorded in cracid diets reaffirms the fragment's potential for the establishment and conservation of these birds, highlighting the importance of creating and protecting private conservation areas, such as the RPPN Fazenda Macedônia and corridors among all forest private areas belonging to the CENIBRA company in that landscape. © 2023",,,,,11,,Tree.

The tool integrates an Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) based Multi Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) algorithm into a Geographical Information System (GIS) package, which consists of layers of satellite-derived data for energy resources and locally obtained data such as land usage, topography, community settlement, road lines, and electrical network, considered as the criteria layers for the assessment of site suitability. The study is focused on the West Kalimantan Province (WKP) which imposes significant challenges due to the wide diversification of protected areas that need to be considered, particularly in landmarks that demand for high resolution imaging of Global Horizontal Irradiation (GHI) within ±4° of the equator. To overcome these challenges, a GIS spatial weighted overlay analysis of criteria layers has been performed within three approximation schemes distinguished by the proximity to existing infrastructures. It has been found that although WKP has relatively high values of GHI over its entire area of 146,807km2, when the protected areas are accounted, only 34% of the area is available for solar power plant deployment. Further analysis using the AHP-MCDA approach, with consideration of the best-suitable conditions, significantly reduces the search of optimal location of solar power plants into just 0.07% to 0.03% of the WKP area. This corresponds to an area of 46.60?108.58km2 with an estimated generation capacity of 2,034?4,785MW, what indicates that the abundant resources of WKP could be sufficient to meet the national renewable energy target. The results of this research should provide a model of decision support system for development of large-scale solar power plants in tropical countries, where the protection of forest and biodiversity is a global concern. © 2020 The Authors",,3249-3263,,,6,,Energy Rep.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier Ltd,,,,AHP; Analytic hierarchy process; Analytic hierarchy process (ahp); Approximation scheme; Biodiversity; Conservation; Conservation areas; Decision making; Decision support systems; Ecological conservation areas; Electric network analysis; Environmental protection; Forestry; Generation capacity; Geographic information systems; GHI; GIS; Hierarchical systems; High-resolution imaging; MCDA; Multi-criteria decision analysis; Optimal location; Power plant deployment; Protected areas; Solar energy; Solar energy plants; Solar farms; Solar power generation; Solar power plants; Topography,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Although a combination of both approaches is typically adopted, the process tends to be dominated by one of them. However, for MPAs to be successful it is necessary that their design achieves a balance between both ecological conservation and socioeconomic needs. The present study aimed to assess, compare and integrate two different approaches to the planning process of MPAs in Wales (UK). A stakeholder-based approach and a science-based systematic approach were compared. Stakeholder priorities for the establishment of MPAs were identified during individual interviews with relevant stakeholders' representatives. Science-based solutions were developed using biological and socioeconomic spatial data in the decision support tool Marxan. A comparison of the outcomes generated by both approaches revealed that although the spatial configuration of the resulting MPAs differed, stakeholders performed well at including representative proportions of relevant marine habitats and species. The integration of the stakeholder driven approach with the science-based solution revealed that an integrated approach could be used as a tool to achieve conservation targets while simultaneously accounting for stakeholder's preferences, as the resulting integrated MPA solution met all conservation targets and was only slightly larger than the science-based solution alone. Results also revealed the potential utility of using stakeholders' knowledge as a proxy for identifying ecologically important areas when spatial data on conservation features are sparse. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,86-93,,,103,,Ocean Coast.

Decisions about priority actions for such species must account for this temporal variation, making planning for their conservation a complex problem. Here, we explore how dynamic distributions can be incorporated into a spatial prioritization, and suggest approaches for prioritizing conservation action when knowledge of species' movements is uncertain. Location: Australian rangelands, including the arid and semi-arid zones of central Australia and adjoining monsoonal tropics, although methods are applicable for any dynamic biodiversity feature. Methods: We used the decision-support software marxan to explore the impact of temporal dynamics on spatial conservation planning for a suite of 42 highly mobile birds across the study region. We explored scenarios comparing a static representation of species' distributions with four methods of integrating temporal dynamics: (1) accounting for temporal variability in distribution across months and years, (2) considering only monthly variability in distribution, (3) considering only annual variability in distribution and (4) considering only minimal distributions during spatial bottlenecks, ignoring distributions at other times. Results: Incorporating the temporal dynamics of species into spatial prioritization substantially changes the spatial pattern of conservation investment, increasing the overall area needed to be placed under conservation measures to achieve a specific target level of species protection. Targeting bottlenecks, locations critical to each species when its distribution is at a minimum, prioritizes a very different suite of sites to those chosen using the traditional approach of static distribution maps based on occurrences pooled across time. Main conclusions: Our results highlight the need to consider dynamic movements in the conservation planning process to ensure that mobile species are adequately protected. A static approach to conservation planning may misdirect resources and lead to inadequate conservation for mobile species. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,332-343,,3,22,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,arid region; Arid zone; Australia; Aves; biodiversity; community dynamics; conservation planning; Dynamic distributions; migration; Migration; Nomadic; prioritization; protected area; Protected areas; rangeland; seasonality; spatial distribution; Spatial prioritization; spatiotemporal analysis; species conservation; Systematic conservation planning; taxonomy,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Hoffm., is mainly a petrophilous fern species of European mountains and very rare in Estonia, a country with flat topography and few rocky habitats. The single extant population is very small, occupies a restricted area, and is threatened seasonally by adverse human activity. An introduction project of the species was prepared according to the A. septentrionale Management Plan. The goal of the project is to introduce new populations of the species in new protected sites from ex situ propagated young sporophytes. The aim of this study was to obtain detailed data on the species ecology and provide information for selecting suitable introduction sites. We carried out a factorial pot experiment on light availability, soil pH and soil biota gradient in order to ascertain optimal growth and development conditions for A. septentrionale. Soil and light conditions must be considered the most important factors affecting species growth and reproduction, particularly under conditions of largely fluctuating water regime. Experimental plants grown in abiotic conditions closely emulating the natural habitat were the most successful and may, therefore, represent the optimal establishment potential. The survival of plants was greater, and plants grew larger with a higher number of longer leaves in acidic soil (pH 4.9) than in neutral soil. Plants performed best under high, approximately 75% total available illumination. Deep shade (90%) and well as full daylight had strong negative effect on the plants.

Due to this uncertainty, it is difficult to plan management actions, such as designating protected areas, intended to adapt to climate change impacts. The danger of ignoring uncertainty is that resulting plans may fail to achieve conservation objectives, yet this is not usually incorporated in conservation planning. Recent studies have accounted for uncertainty by applying Modern Portfolio Theory—an approach for risk-sensitive resource allocation used in the finance sector—to conservation planning. However, these approaches are not directly applicable to many conservation planning problems that typically include discrete site selection, multiple conservation objectives and a consideration of connectivity. We extend previous applications of Modern Portfolio Theory by incorporating these additional conservation planning requirements in the context of designing a reserve system and apply it to conserving coastal wetlands and associated ecosystem services under uncertain rates of sea-level rise. This allows us to identify an optimal set of properties to preserve, while maintaining connectivity for landward migration of wetlands and accounting for risk. We compare spatial plans that resulted from our risk-sensitive approach to reserve selection that ignored risk to determine whether, and how, explicitly accounting for risk alters planning outcomes. We demonstrate that incorporating sea-level rise, but ignoring uncertainty, is a high-risk strategy, even when planning for the worst-case sea-level rise scenario. In contrast, diversifying site selection through Modern Portfolio Theory can ensure the supply of ecosystem services by reducing the risk of failure across all sea-level rise scenarios. Synthesis and applications. Climate change will continue to drive profound changes to socio-ecological systems that are difficult to predict. In this context, risk reduction in spatial planning is a neglected but essential strategy for avoiding comprehensive failure and improving the long-term effectiveness of conservation efforts. Modern Portfolio Theory, as presented here to account for the characteristics of real-world conservation planning problems, provides a rigorous way forward in dealing explicitly with risk for many conservation planning exercises. © 2018 The Authors.

Although single-frequency multibeam echosounder surveys have dominated seabed characterisation for decades, multifrequency approaches are now gaining favour in order to capture different frequency responses from the same seabed type. The aim of this study is to develop a robust modelling framework for testing the potential application and value of multifrequency (30, 95, and 300 kHz) multibeam backscatter responses to characterize sediments’ grain size in an area with strong geomorphological gradients and benthic ecological variability. We fit a generalized linear model on a multibeam backscatter and its derivatives to examine the explanatory power of single-frequency and multifrequency models with respect to the mean sediment grain size obtained from the grab samples. A strong and statistically significant (p<0.05) correlation between the mean backscatter and the absolute values of the mean sediment grain size for the data was noted. The root mean squared error (RMSE) values identified the 30 kHz model as the best performing model responsible for explaining the most variation (84.3%) of the mean grain size at a statistically significant output (p<0.05) with an adjusted r2 = 0.82. Overall, the single low-frequency sources showed a marginal gain on the multifrequency model, with the 30 kHz model driving the significance of this multifrequency model, and the inclusion of the higher frequencies diminished the level of agreement. We recommend further detailed and sufficient ground-truth data to better predict sediment properties and to discriminate benthic habitats to enhance the reliability of multifrequency backscatter data for the monitoring and management of marine protected areas.

The present study aimed to adopt a multidisciplinary approach - integrating data on dune morphology, sediment texture and soil parameters as well as shoreline trend - in order to define which are the abiotic factors that most affect the distribution and composition of Mediterranean plant dune communities. The study was carried out in two protected areas, located in central Italy, subjected to different shoreline trends in recent years. 75 plots were identified along eleven randomly positioned cross-shore transects, starting from the beach continuing up to the plant communities of the backdunes. In each plot floristic and environmental data - such as distance to the coastline, plot altitude, inclination, shoreline trend, mean grain-size, sorting, pH, conductivity and organic matter concentration - were collected. The analyses revealed significant changes of vegetational cover, dune morphology and geopedological features along the coast-to-inland gradient. Relationships between vegetation composition and environmental factors were investigated through Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA). Four factors - distance to the coastline, mean grain-size, shoreline trend and organic matter - were found to be closely correlated with the floristic composition of plant communities. Finally, soil properties were highlighted as the most determinant factors of community zonation in these Mediterranean coastal dune ecosystems. These results could be taken into account by local managers in conservation actions such as protecting the eroding foredunes as well as in artificial dune reconstructions. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,213-222,,,149,,Estuar.

However, very little empirical evidence exists on the rates and patterns of increase of density and biomass of target species following the closure of a coral reef or part of a reef, nor on how quickly any gains potentially useful to fisheries can be lost if reserves are subsequently opened to fishing. This paper presents empirical evidence derived from the visual monitoring of density and biomass of large predatory coral reef fish (Serranidae (Epinephelinae), Lutjanidae, Lethrinidae and Carangidae as a group) in two small marine reserves and at two control sites in the Philippines from 1983 to 1993. At one reserve (Sumilon) a complex history of management allowed seven measurements of density and biomass at durations of reserve protection ranging from -2 (i.e., fished for 2 yr) to 9 yr. At the second reserve (Apo), seven measurements were taken at durations of reserve protection ranging from 1 to 11 yr. Density of large predators provided an excellent indicator of the effects of marine reserve protection and fishing. Density decreased significantly twice when the Sumilon reserve was opened to fishing (1985, 1993), and increased significantly three times following durations of marine reserve protection of 5 yr (Sumilon reserve and nonreserve sites, 1987-1991) and 6 yr (Apo reserve beyond 1988). Density of large predators at the Apo nonreserve site (open to fishing) did not change significantly, remaining low throughout the study. Significant positive linear correlations of mean density of large predators with years of reserve protection were observed at both reserves. The rates of increase were 1.15 and 0.72 fish-1000 m-2·yr-1 at Sumilon and Apo reserves, respectively, with mean density ranges of ?4-17 fish/1000 m2 (-2 to 9 yr of protection) at Sumilon and 0.5-9.5 fish/1000 m2 (1-11 yr of protection) at Apo. The pattern of increase of mean biomass with years of reserve protection was more curvilinear than that of mean density, particularly at Sumilon, where a slow increase was observed in the first 3-5 yr (reflecting delayed recruitment and a natural delay to the period of maximum individual mass growth), followed by an increasing rate over the next 4 yr. Mean biomass ranges were ?1.5-18 kg/1000 m2 (-2 to 9 yr of protection) at Sumilon and 1-10.5 kg/ 1000 m2 (1-11 yr of protection) at Apo.

These reef fish population and assemblage attributes may be affected by both NTMR protection and benthic habitat change. Before-after-control-impact-pair (BACIP) sampling designs and long-term (8-30 yr) monitoring at 4 Philippine NTMRs were used to examine the relative effects of NTMR protection and benthic habitat change on densities and assemblage structures of fishery-targeted (Lethrinidae and Lutjanidae) and non-targeted (Pomacentridae) reef fishes. Targeted fish density increased significantly in NTMRs relative to fished control sites at all reserves over time. Non-targeted fish density and hard coral cover displayed a variety of patterns of change over time (unrelated to NTMR protection), but closely mirrored each other. Targeted fish were considered potential predators of non-targeted fish. Availability of potential prey for predators had a larger influence than the effect of potential predators on prey, with both processes much weaker than effects of habitat change. Multivariate analyses of long-term temporal data indicated that 65.8% of the variance in assemblage structure of non-targeted pomacentrids was explained by benthic habitat variables (structural complexity, cover of dead substrate) whereas NTMR protection alone explained only 9.7%. In contrast, 36.2% of assemblage structure of targeted lethrinids/lutjanids was explained by duration of NTMR protection (42.2% excluding effects of typhoons at one reserve), with habitat variables alone explaining 24.7%. These results help clarify the relative effects of NTMR protection, benthic habitat change, and potential trophic interactions on reef fishes targeted and non-targeted by fishing. © Inter-Research 2015.",,233-248,,,529,,Mar.

We used underwater visual census at 15 no-take marine reserves in the Philippines to both infer and measure such rates. We made a single estimate of the biomass of large predatory fishes (Serranidae, Lutjanidae, Lethrinidae) targeted heavily by fisheries in each of 13 well protected no-take reserves (age range 0.5 to 13 yr), and in nearby nonreserve (fished) sites. We also measured rates of biomass buildup of these fish regularly for 18 yr (1983 to 2001) in 2 no-take reserves (Sumilon, Apo) and nonreserve sites. The duration of protection required to detect significantly higher reserve biomass was similar, but lower for temporal monitoring (3 to 4 yr) than for spatial comparisons (6 yr). The reserve:nonreserve biomass ratios at maximum duration of reserve protection were similar for inferred (9.0) and measured (6.3 to 9.8) estimates. Thus, results of long-term monitoring of 2 reserves may have regional generality. The inferred rate of change of a reserve effect index (log 10 [Reserve biomass + 1 / Nonreserve biomass + 1]) with duration of protection did not differ significantly from the measured rate at Sumilon, but was higher than that measured at Apo. A habitat complexity index did not affect estimates of 'reserve effects' significantly in this study, and reserve protection was generally effective. Thus, using similar methods of reserve protection and census on the same target group in similar areas, one can make useful inferences about rates of recovery in no-take marine reserves. © Inter-Research 2005.",,01-Dec,,,292,,Mar.

Concern centres on whether changes to adjacent habitats (e.g. unprotected habitats) can affect the conservation value of protected habitats. The extent to which these concerns are real may be affected by differences in dispersal mode and capacity of the target animals. We tested the interactive effects of size (small vs. large) and isolation (near vs. far) of neighbouring habitats on the assemblage composition, species richness and abundance of 2 taxonomic groups with contrasting adult dispersal modes; copepods as water column swimmers and polychaetes as benthic crawlers. Artificial habitats that are structurally similar to natural articulated coralline algae were used because manipulation of habitat size (small: 40 x 40 mm, large: 120 x 120 mm) and isolation (near 100 mm, far 300 mm) was easier. The different levels of size and isolation used were within the range seen in natural habitats at the study site. Isolation of habitats had a greater effect on assemblages of polychaetes, as may be expected for more limited dispersers. The composition of polychaetes differed between near and far habitats independent of their size, while copepod composition only differed between sizes of habitat when they were far apart. While we predicted that greater abundance and species richness would occur in habitats adjacent to large habitats, only polychaetes were consistent with this pattern. Copepod richness and abundance, in contrast, were greater in habitats that were far from small habitats, providing evidence for the 'nearest refuge hypothesis'. These results reinforce the need to consider issues of dispersal and proximity to neighbouring habitats when planning protected areas to achieve conservation goals. © Inter-Research 2005.",,31-38,,,296,,Mar.

Owing to high productivity, the California Current Ecosystem (CCE) harbors an abundant and diverse avifauna comprised of resident and migratory species. With a goal of protecting habitats in three biogeographic regions — North, Central, and South CCE — a network of marine protected areas have been designated, including five National Marine Sanctuaries (NMS). Using an extensive at-sea survey dataset (1980 to 2017), we characterize spatial patterns of seabirds, and compare mean relative abundance, diversity, and community composition both within and outside the NMSs. We found that within the CCE, seabird abundance and diversity increase linearly from south to north (R2 = 0.54 and R2 = 0.55, respectively) and decrease linearly with distance from the coast (R2 = 0.16 and R2 = 0.23, respectively). The avifauna of the North and South regions are the most distinct, with the Central region being transitional between the two. The CCE avifauna shows limited overall diversity, with just 10 species contributing >93% of abundance totals. In addition, certain foraging guilds and prey preference groups were dominant: pursuit-feeding and piscivorous species in the North and surface feeding generalists in the South. Overall, seabird relative abundance and diversity are higher within NMS boundaries compared to outside. Although relative abundance and diversity of seabirds within NMSs were broadly representative of corresponding biogeographic regions, the overall NMS network captures a range of distinct seabird communities. The analysis of this extensive dataset provides a better understanding of seabird spatial patterns and their ecological roles within different regions, thus facilitating more effective, adaptive management of CCE biotic resources. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,240,,J.

Most Mediterranean MPAs are multiple-use, i.e., they include a small no-take area and a buffer zone where extractive and non-extractive economic activities are allowed, mostly under restricted conditions. Multiple-use MPAs are characterised by specific governance challenges, which differ from those of no-take ones. They need to find a compromise between conservation goals and the interests of different categories of stakeholders, and in particular the fishery and tourism sectors – whose support and buy-in are essential to ensure compliance. For this reason, it is important to analyse the governance strategy of multiple-use MPAs that are successful both from an environmental and a socio-economic point of view. To contribute to this debate I herein explore the governance strategy of the Torre Guaceto MPA in south-east Italy, a success story that shows how, even in a difficult socio-economic context and with limited public funding, a MPA can lead to the recovery of ecosystems while providing economic benefits to the tourism and fishery sectors. Drawing from a focus group with fishermen and in-depth semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders from the managing Consortium, the tourist and agriculture sectors and two local residents, I argue that the reason for the success of the Torre Guaceto MPA can be found in the use of multiple economic and non-economic incentives, which catalyse synergies among sectors, and in the strong leadership by two local, well-respected, committed and pro-active leaders. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,115,,Mar.

Therefore, management actions to achieve a more sustainable exploitation of fishery resources are required and compelling. In this study, a spatially explicit multi-species bio-economic modeling approach, namely, SMART, was applied to the case study of central Mediterranean Sea to assess the potential effects of different trawl fisheries management scenarios on the demersal resources. The approach combines multiple modeling components, integrating the best available sets of spatial data about catches and stocks, fishing footprint from vessel monitoring systems (VMS) and economic parameters in order to describe the relationships between fishing effort pattern and impacts on resources and socio-economic consequences. Moreover, SMART takes into account the bi-directional connectivity between spawning and nurseries areas of target species, embedding the outcomes of a larvae transport Lagrangian model and of an empirical model of fish migration. Finally, population dynamics and trophic relationships are considered using a MICE (Models of Intermediate Complexity) approach. SMART simulates the fishing effort reallocation resulting from the introduction of different management scenarios. Specifically, SMART was applied to evaluate the potential benefits of different management approaches of the trawl fisheries targeting demersal stocks (deepwater rose shrimp Parapenaeus longirostris, the giant red shrimp Aristaeomorpha foliacea, the European hake Merluccius merluccius, and the red mullet Mullus barbatus) in the Strait of Sicily. The simulated management scenarios included a reduction of both fishing capacity and effort, two different sets of temporal fishing closures, and two sets of spatial fishing closures, defined involving fishers. Results showed that both temporal and spatial closures are expected to determine a significant improvement in the exploitation pattern for all the species, ultimately leading to the substantial recovery of spawning stock biomass for the stocks. Overall, one of the management scenarios suggested by fishers scored better and confirms the usefulness of participatory approaches, suggesting the need for more public consultation when dealing with resource management at sea.",,,,,6,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000486544700001,,,,,,,bio-economics; connectivity; EFFORT ALLOCATION; FISHING EFFORT; FLEET DYNAMICS; IMPACT; IMPLEMENTATION; INDIVIDUAL-BASED MODEL; management strategy evaluation; MARINE PROTECTED AREA; models of intermediate complexity; RESERVES; SPATIAL MANAGEMENT; spatial modeling; vessel monitoring systems; VMS DATA,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Protection of this ecosystem is key to increase resilience to climate change. However, in some of the Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), seagrass ecosystems are still under threat. This study aims to investigate the current condition of seagrass ecosystems and compare it to the previous study before MPA was established in the Berau coastal water. SeagrassWatch method was used to measure seagrass community structure. Other proxies were also used to explain factors affecting seagrass condition such as total suspended solid (TSS) and sedimentary stable isotopes to identify the source of organic carbon. The percentage cover of seagrass in this study were categorized as not healthy (<29–59.9%), which was statistically related to TSS. The higher TSS resulted in the lower seagrass cover, as observed in the Rabu Rabu island located adjacent to mainland. Changes in seagrass composition were observed, including the emergence of larger species of E. acoroides and T. hemprichii in the islands located adjacent to mainland. The spatial and temporal changes of seagrass ecosystems observed in Berau MPA should be taken into consideration that conservation on seagrass ecosystems needs to be prioritized by improving the MPA function to avoid further loss of carbon from seagrass ecosystems. © (2024), (Polskie Towarzystwo Inzynierii Ekologicznej (PTIE)).

Since 1938 this area became a biosphere reserve since many rare species of animals and plants are to be found there. The generation of this new peninsula is due to the sedimentary process induced by the Danube River outflow and it was started more than 150 years ago. In the winter of 2013 this environment was seriously affected by some very strong storms putting in real danger this ecosystem. From this perspective, the objective of the present work is to evaluate the protection that might be offered to this area by a marine energy farm that would be deployed in front of the peninsula. In order to assess the coastal protection offered by the proposed solution, simulations with the SWAN (Simulating Waves Nearshore) wave model have been performed for the most relevant storm patterns. The results show that a marine energy farm can provide a real sheltering effect to the ecological reserve.

This study aimed at comparing piscivorous waterbirds community composition and functional diversity between a fish protected area (FPA) and a non-fish protected area (NFPA) in two tributaries of Zambezi River in Namibia. At each site, all the waterbirds within a radius of 50 metres were enumerated and identified using binoculars and guide books. For each tributary, species diversity, taxonomic diversity, functional diversity, and community-based trait diversity indices were calculated. A total of 40 carnivorous waterbirds species belonging to 9 orders were recorded during the survey. Of these 40 species, 10 (25%) predominantly feed on fish, 6 (15%) predominantly feed on insects and 24 (60%) species predominantly feed on both fish and insects. At the FPAs site, a total of 35 species were recorded, comprising 10 (29%) species that predominantly feed on fish, 4 (11%) species that predominantly feed on insects and 21 (60%) species that feed on both fish and insects. Generally, piscivorous waterbirds species diversities were not significantly different between a FPA and a NFPA (p > 0.05). However, all piscivorous waterbirds functional diversities indices calculated were significantly different between FPAs and NFPAs (p < 0.05).

One of the main effects of pesticides is the disruption of the nervous system through the inhibition of cholinesterase enzymes. The aim of this study was to determine the plasma cholinesterase activity in native birds of pesticide-exposed agricultural lands within the Grassland Priority Conservation Area El Tokio, located in northeastern Mexico. The study was conducted during three summer seasons (2008-2010), when the reproduction of birds and pesticide spraying occurred. Forty-four birds of 13 different species were captured, sampled, and released. High variability values among individuals and species were found, ranging from 0.200 ± 0.055 to 4.960 ± 0.150 ?mol/min/L. White-winged doves' values were significantly smaller than basal reference, showing 29-49% of plasma cholinesterase inhibition and possible pesticide exposure. Mean plasma cholinesterase activity values for 10 of the species had not been reported previously.

Eighty-five settlements occur along the Baikal environment, (28 coastal) with 21 being most popular with both locals and tourists because of transport and accessibility were selected for study. Findings suggested that human parameters had a greater negative impact on coastal scenery. Sites with low human values were included in Classes IV and V; beaches, with high scoring physical parameters, e.g. cliffs, dunes, were deemed to be in Class I. Protected areas (National Parks etc.) and the existence of any kind of protection feature is relevant in coastal scenic preservation; 75% of Class I beaches and 37.5% of Class II are located within these areas. Monitoring compliance for environmental protection contributes to the preservation of the natural landscape and has a positive effect on scenic values. Changing human parameters (if possible, as changing physical ones is difficult) can change beach classes by lowering/increasing, by as much as two levels, e.g. Sarayskiy beach increased from Class III to Class IV after it was cleaned of litter. Current Baikal management is at a crossroads between moving toward mass tourism or eco-tourism that is unlikely to be resolved in the near future.

In California (USA), the Marine Life Protection Act (MLPA) Initiative led four regional public planning processes to design a statewide network of MPAs. The MLPA planning processes were carefully structured to provide a clearly-defined and important role for science and scientists. Over 50 scientists contributed directly to this MPA planning effort as members of a Science Advisory Team or in other capacities. Stakeholders were charged with developing alternative MPA proposals in each region, while scientists served as advisors and evaluated MPA proposals against science-based guidelines. Four key conditions supported the successful integration of science into the MPA network planning effort. First, the MLPA legislation provided a strong legal mandate for the use of the best readily available science and policy-makers strongly supported scientific input and the use of science-based MPA design guidelines. Second, the structure of the public planning process clearly identified the role of scientists and enabled a transparent and participatory process that promoted the use of science. Third, simple science-based MPA design guidelines provided benchmarks for assessing the likely effectiveness of alternative MPA proposals at achieving MLPA goals. Finally, scientists were engaged extensively and were responsive to the evolving informational needs of each regional MPA planning process. The redesigned statewide network of MPAs generally reflects the successful integration of science and science-based MPA design guidelines into a public policy process. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,45-56,,,74,,Ocean Coast.

We developed a quantitative ecological decision-support framework that estimates these potential impacts so managers can weigh costs and benefits of proposed research projects and make informed permitting decisions. The framework generates quantitative estimates of the ecological impacts of the project and the cumulative impacts of the proposed project and all other projects in the protected area, and then compares the estimated cumulative impacts of all projects with policy-based acceptable impact thresholds. We use a series of simplified equations (models) to assess the impacts of proposed research to: a) the population of any targeted species, b) the major ecological assemblages that make up the community, and c) the physical habitat that supports protected area biota. These models consider both targeted and incidental impacts to the ecosystem and include consideration of the vulnerability of targeted species, assemblages, and habitats, based on their recovery time and ecological role. We parameterized the models for a wide variety of potential research activities that regularly occur in the study area using a combination of literature review and expert judgment with a precautionary approach to uncertainty. We also conducted sensitivity analyses to examine the relationships between model input parameters and estimated impacts to understand the dominant drivers of the ecological impact estimates. Although the decision-support framework was designed for and adopted by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife for permitting scientific studies in the state-wide network of marine protected areas (MPAs), the framework can readily be adapted for terrestrial and freshwater protected areas.

Ecotonal areas play an important role in providing ecological and phytogeographic knowledge regarding the flora and vegetation of this region. Despite various studies on the PFSP, knowledge of this region remains fragmented. In this study, we aim to conduct an updated checklist of the PFSP vascular flora, including a compilation of all the studies conducted in this protected area, plus field work carried out by the authors from 2014 to 2017. In addition, given its ecotonal characteristics, we completed a floristic similarity analysis between the PFSP and other floristic surveys that examined the same vegetation types present in this study, to gain a better understanding of their phytogeographic relationships. Overall, 684 species, belonging to 387 genera and 107 families, were recorded. The SSF presented the richest vegetation type (478 species), followed by the CER (418) and the RP (231). The most diverse families were Fabaceae (64 species), Myrtaceae (41), Orchidaceae (39), Rubiaceae (37), Asteraceae (35), Bignoniaceae (26) and Malvaceae (20). Moreover, eight threatened species, at regional and national levels, were found. To date, 412 species have been added to the floristic list produced for the PFSP. The life forms with the highest number of species were trees (286 species), herbs (176) plus shrubs and subshrubs (123). Our research findings indicate floristic patterns with higher levels of similarity among species in geographical proximity, including those in ecotonal areas encompassing different vegetation types. These results rank the PFSP among some of the most species-rich conservation units with seasonal climates, and therefore is of great importance for plant conservation in the southeast of Brazil. © 2021, Universidade Estadual de Campinas UNICAMP.

However, these results have typically been seen in shallow water systems and questions remain whether this management strategy could be successfully applied to deepwater ecosystems. Our objectives were to determine the efficacy of four deepwater MPAs called bottomfish restricted fishing areas (BRFAs), with various time spans of protection, monitored at depths between 90 and 310 m from 2007 to 2011 for six species of deepwater snapper and one grouper harvested in the Main Hawaiian Islands. Our results suggested that the duration of protection influenced reserve effects, particularly for target species. Mean fish length, and in some cases abundance, increased for one or more of the most economically important target species inside nearly all tested BRFAs. In addition, more mature fish were seen inside the BRFA with the longest duration of protection (~14 years); species richness increased outside this area while inside it remained the same. Here, we provide the first evidence that deepwater MPAs can have positive effects on deepwater species and that many protection effects were consistent with results found in shallow water ecosystems. While these findings are novel, additional data over greater temporal scales will be necessary to determine whether these trends will continue and if others will become important over time. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.",,411-425,,2,161,,Mar.

Generalized resistance to biotypes of the pathogen is the ultimate goal but difficult to attain. The concept of evolving multiline hybrids to combat the ever increasing threat from bioraces, especially in the cereal rusts, now engages the attention of plant breeders. Locating gene centers as the repositories of greatest wealth of hereditary variants, displaying naturally inbred characteristics, are indispensible as gene pool for ongoing breeding programmes and development of ""Population resistance"" or ""Synthetic horizontal resistance"". Two concepts of breeding for Vertical Resistance (VR) or for Horizontal Resistance (HR), the former conditioned by oligogenes and the latter by polygenes, are invaluable in evolving resistant varieties that can slow down epidemics and offer protection. VR confers complete but impermanent protection, whereas HR confers incomplete but permanent protection. A point of interest is that differentially, pathogen races, differ in virulence and other races differ in aggressiveness. A race with unnecessary virulence is less fit to survive on a strong resistance gene host than a weakly virulent one. With the discovery of 'Phytoalexins' produced in vivo in host under pathogenesis, which are essentially phenolics, with a possible rôle in initiating defence mechanism in plants, the search is on for similar substances in resistant cultivars. Enhanced synthesis of lignins are also considered as a means of building up resistance in plants to pathogens. Plant pathologists have been looking for genetic markers in the many end-products of biosynthesis that could resist pathogenic invasion of tissues. Alterations in respiratory rates and oxidase activity, in general under pathogenesis, have received much attention. More recently, germination of a fungus spore has been shown to be accompanied by mRNA synthesis with subsequent changes in ribosomal activity. It has been suggested that host-parasite interaction could be between host genes and infective RNA. One of the major roles of activated oxidative processes could be that of detoxification in vivo of the pathogen's toxin, a characteristic of resistant cultivars so far examined. The present trend may lead on to a better understanding of the much debated question as to whether natural immunity exists in plants against specific pathogens. © 1975 Indian Academy of Sciences.",,229-248,,6,81,,Proc.

This paper discusses the decadal reassessment of groupers (family Epinephelidae), an important and valuable group of marine fishes subjected to high market demand and intense fishing effort, based on IUCN criteria. Allowing for uncertainty in the status of species listed as Data Deficient, 19 species (11.4%) are currently assigned to a “threatened” category. This first reassessment for a large marine fish taxon permits an evaluation of changes following the original assessments, provides a profile of the current conservation condition of species, identifies the challenges of assessing conservation status, and highlights current and emerging threats. Measures needed to reduce threats and lessons learned from conservation efforts are highlighted. Present threats include intensifying fishing effort in the face of absent or insufficient fishery management or monitoring, growing pressures from international trade, and an inadequate coverage in effectively managed, sized, or located protected areas. Emerging threats involve expansion of fishing effort into deeper waters and more remote locations, shifts to previously non-targeted species, increases in the capture, marketing and use of juveniles, growing demands for domestic and international trade, and, potentially, climate change. Those species most threatened are larger-bodied, longer-lived groupers, most of which reproduce in spawning aggregations. © 2020",,,,,116,,Mar.

(oyamel fir) is distributed in conifer-dominated mountain forests at high altitudes along the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt. This fir is the preferred host for overwintering monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) migratory populations which habitually congregate within a few stands now located inside a Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve. Our objectives were to predict and map the climatic niche for A. religiosa for contemporary and future (2030, 2060 and 2090) climates, suggest management strategies to accommodate climate changes, and discuss implications for conservation of monarch butterfly overwintering sites in Mexico. A bioclimate model predicting the presence or absence of A. religiosa was developed by using the Random Forests classification tree on forest inventory data. The model used six predictor variables and was driven primarily by the mean temperature of the warmest month, an interaction between summer precipitation to and winter temperatures, and the ratio of summer to annual precipitation. Projecting the contemporary climate niche into future climates provided by three General Circulation Models and two scenarios suggested that the area occupied by the niche should diminish rapidly over the course of the century: a decrease of 69.2% by the decade surrounding 2030, 87.6% for that surrounding 2060, and 96.5% for 2090. We discuss assisted migration of A. religiosa upwards in altitude by 275. m so that populations of 2030 would occupy the same climates as today. The projections also show that by the end of the century, suitable habitat for the monarch butterfly may no longer occur inside the Biosphere Reserve. We therefore discuss management options and associated research programs necessary for assuring perpetuation of future butterfly habitat. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.",,98-106,,,275,,For. Ecol.

These forests act as a carbon sequester and protection shield against floods, storms, and cyclones. The mangroves of the Sundarban Biosphere Reserve (SBR), being one of the most dynamic and productive ecosystems in the world are in constant degradation. Hence, habitat suitability assessment of mangrove species is of paramount significance for its restoration and ecological benefits. The study aims to assess and prioritize restoration targets for 18 true mangrove species using 10 machine-learning algorithm-based habitat suitability models in the SBR. We identified the degraded mangrove areas between 1975 and 2020 by using Landsat images and field verification. The reserve was divided into 5609 grids using 1 km gird size for understanding the nature of mangrove degradation and collection of species occurrence data. A total of 36 parameters covering physical, environmental, soil, water, bio-climatic and disturbance aspects were chosen for habitat suitability assessment. Niche overlay function and grid-based habitat suitability classes were used to identify the species-based restoration prioritize grids. Habitat suitability analysis revealed that nearly half of the grids are highly suitable for mangrove habitat in the Reserve. Restoration within highly suitable mangrove grids could be achieved in the areas covered with less than 75 percent mangroves and lesser anthropogenic disturbance. The study calls for devising effective management strategies for monitoring and conserving the degraded mangrove cover. Monitoring and effective management strategies can help in maintaining and conserving the degraded mangrove cover. The model proves to be useful for assessing site suitability for restoring mangroves. The other geographical regions interested in assessing habitat suitability and prioritizing the restoration of mangroves may find the methodology adopted in this study effective. © 2022, The Author(s).",,,,1,12,,Sci.

They are used as a possible tool for fisheries management in maximizing resource enhancement, resource conservation, habitat rehabilitation and mitigating as well as one of the steps to alleviate the problem of depleting fish resources in the coastal waters. This paper outline the historical and the recent trend on development and management of artificial reefs (ARs) program in Malaysia which was carried out by four main departments ie. the Department of Fisheries Malaysia (DoFM), Fisheries Development Authority Board of Malaysia (FDAM), Marine Park Department (MPD) and the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA). A study to understand the developmental changes in ARs technology especially in the design, construction, installation, material used, where these changes were caused by past management policy on ARs development was done. Data and information that was gathered from past published and unpublished papers/technical reports/annual reports mostly written by officers and researchers were reviewed to support the study. Initial monitoring on the fish catches using the latest design of the artificial reefs on few locations was also done. Study shows that continuous research and development as well as management experiences by Malaysia for more than 35 years has resulted in major modifications in ARs technology especially in the design, construction, installation, pre and post-deployment monitoring, as well as material used. It was found that, the four agencies have different in their policy objectives and guidelines in ARs management concerning the material used, deployment and assessment. It seemed that the concept and purpose of establishing ARs from the beginning was also not clearly defined by these agencies and has cause unsustainable way in managing the ARs. Initial results also indicated that using the latest design of artificial reefs has shown some better potential in the type of fish catches and it can be further developed by managing the ARs in a sustainable manner. © 2012 IEEE.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Program Book - OCEANS MTS/IEEE Yeosu: Living Ocean Coast - Diversity Resour.

This study aimed to address this knowledge gap at an adequate resolution to support national cetacean conservation and management planning. Maximum Entropy (Maxent) modelling was used to map the distribution of 15 selected cetacean species in seven areas within Indonesian waters using recent cetacean presence datasets as well as environmental predictors (topographic and oceanographic variables). We then combined the individual species suitable habitat maps and overlaid them with provincial marine spatial planning (MSP) jurisdictions, marine protected areas (MPAs), oil and gas contract areas, and marine traffic density. Our results reflect a great heterogeneity in distribution among species and within species among different locations. This heterogeneity reflects an interrelated influence of topographic variables and oceanographic processes on the distribution of cetacean species. Bathymetry, distance to- coast and the ?200m isobaths, and chlorophyll-a concentration and sea surface temperature were important variables influencing distribution of most species in many regions. Areas rich in species were mainly related to coastal areas or insular-reef complexity, representing high productivity and upwelling-modified waters. Although some important suitable habitats currently fall within MPAs, other areas are not and overlap with oil and gas exploration activities and marine traffic, indicating potentially high risk areas for cetaceans. The results of this study can support national cetacean conservation and management planning, and be used to reduce or avoid adverse anthropogenic threats. We advise to consider currently unprotected suitable cetacean habitats in MPA and MSP development. © 2021 The Authors",,,,,205,,Ocean Coast.

This study analysed the home range of pygmy blue whales (PBWs) from western Australia to eastern Indonesia to be able to assess the overlap with current MPAs. In this study, data from 11 individual PBWs tagged in the Perth Canyon were used. Two home range methods, adaptive Local Convex Hull (a-LoCoH) and Brownian Bridge Movement Model (BBMM), were performed and compared to identify core use areas and connections between these areas (i.e., migration corridors). By assessing the relative properties and visually inspecting the home ranges, 90% BBMM (home range and migration corridor) and 50% BBMM (core use area) are chosen as the best results, because they cover the connected core-use areas to a large extent. The home ranges that were covered by current MPAs were only 2% in Indonesia and 16% in Australia. Important migration corridors without current protection are in the east Savu Sea, south of Timor Island, and wider Banda Sea. It is noteworthy that comparing methods is relevant to be able to choose the most suitable method for the data used and the goal of this study. The limited overlap between the calculated home ranges and the MPAs of the Indonesian waters articulates the importance of in-depth scientific studies to be able to evaluate, implement and develop marine conservation planning. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.",,,,,92,,,,,,,,EDP Sciences,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: BIO.

The aim of this study was to predict the migratory corridors, suitable habitats and use of marine reserves by pygmy blue whales and overlap with marine traffic. Firstly, based on available telemetry data, we analysed the home ranges, core-use areas and migratory corridors using Brownian Bridge Movement Models. Secondly, we predicted suitable habitat by modelling telemetry data against environmental predictors using Maximum Entropy modelling; and lastly we geometrically overlaid home ranges and suitable habitats with designated migration lanes, marine protected areas and marine traffic. Consistent movement of pygmy blue whales from Western Australia to the Banda and Molucca Seas in Indonesia demonstrated a high level of connectivity between the two regions. There is a discrepancy between the designated migration lanes for large whales in Indonesian marine spatial planning and migration routes suggested by this study. The home range analysis and habitat models revealed that large areas of the migration corridors, core-use, and suitable habitats are currently not protected, particularly along international waters and within the Banda and Molucca Seas.

The present study aims to conduct an integrated environmental assessment of frankincense tree stands using DPSIR framework (driving forces, pressure, state, impact, responses). Assessment included; delineating frankincense tree distribution using GPS, measuring density of trees using nearest individual method, and estimating tree production in a traditional tapping method. Evaluation also included analysis of conservation policies as well as the role of local communities in maintaining a sustainable production of frankincense. Results showed that frankincense trees cover 50% of the protected area with an average density of 2.3 tree/ha. A substantial decline in tree density was noted by as much as 85% over the past 13 years. Average tree production of frankincense in the southern valleys of the reserve was 3.3 kg/year. Questionnaire results showed that grazing is the main source of income for locals; followed by government jobs and marine fisheries. On the other hand; percentage of locals working in frankincense tapping was 17%. Thirty four percent of locals believe that tree deterioration is a result of drought whereas, 32% and 25% attributed the cause to tapping method and frequent over-tapping of trees respectively. Only 9% singled out overgrazing as a cause of degradation. Numerous legislations concerning conservation of biological diversity were noted however, they did not curb the deterioration of frankincense trees. Aside from poor implementation, legislations were mostly supervisory or regulatory in nature, with limited use of economic tools. The increasing number of residents adjacent to reserve, economic development, and government support for industries associated with frankincense, represent major causes of the deterioration of the trees. Sustainability scenario is considered to be the best option to maintain the sustainability of frankincense trees and their habitats. A number of policies seeking to curb the decline of frankincense tree habitats and deterioration of trees were suggested. These include; revision of natural reserves and Biodiversity Conservation Act, enforcement of rangelands and livestock management law, building a database of local communities and their herds, sources of income, craft-based products and environmental services provided by the reserve.

Achieving the United Nations' target of 10% of the ocean protected by 2020 will require an aggressively implemented mix of large MPAs in remote areas, and small MPAs in inhabited coastal areas. Replication of small no-take MPAs (marine reserves) in coastal areas at the global scale is more likely to occur if reserves are designed as investment opportunities – ‘fish banks’ that produce new profits based on ecosystem services such as tourism and fish production. Here a pro forma business plan for a marine reserve using private investment and local management is presented. Total annual profit before the reserve was 254,000 (from fishing only); in year 8 after creation of the reserve, profit (fishing+tourism) was 3.3 million. Given the right conditions, the net present value of the reserve can be between 4 and 12 times greater than the no-reserve counterfactual. In our model, (1) the tourism sector covers the costs of creation and operation of the reserve as an investment in a profitable business; and (2) fishers become shareholders and receive income from tourist access fees; their profits increase as soon as one year after the creation of the reserve. A series of financing mechanisms to create and manage fish banks is also proposed. If designed properly, fish banks can help restore marine biodiversity and ecosystem services, and can create jobs, help fishers, and bring in significantly greater economic profits than the absence of protection. © 2016 The Authors",,154-161,,,73,,Mar.

There has been remarkable progress in the last decade, and some organizations claim that 7% of the ocean is already protected and that we will exceed the 10% target by 2020. However, currently only 3.6% of the ocean is in implemented MPAs, and only 2% is in implemented strongly or fully protected areas. Here we argue that current protection has been overestimated because it includes areas that are not yet protected, and that areas that allow significant extractive activities such as fishing should not count as ‘protected.’ The most rigorous projections suggest that we will not achieve the 10% target in truly protected areas by 2020.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are an effective tool for restoring ocean biodiversity and ecosystem services1,2, but at present only 2.7% of the ocean is highly protected3. This low level of ocean protection is due largely to conflicts with fisheries and other extractive uses. To address this issue, here we developed a conservation planning framework to prioritize highly protected MPAs in places that would result in multiple benefits today and in the future. We find that a substantial increase in ocean protection could have triple benefits, by protecting biodiversity, boosting the yield of fisheries and securing marine carbon stocks that are at risk from human activities. Our results show that most coastal nations contain priority areas that can contribute substantially to achieving these three objectives of biodiversity protection, food provision and carbon storage. A globally coordinated effort could be nearly twice as efficient as uncoordinated, national-level conservation planning. Our flexible prioritization framework could help to inform both national marine spatial plans4 and global targets for marine conservation, food security and climate action. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Limited.",,397-402,,7854,592,,Nature,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Nature Research,,,,action plan; animal; Animals; anthropogenic effect; AREAS; biodiversity; Biodiversity; carbon sequestration; Carbon Sequestration; carbon sink; catering service; chemistry; CLASSIFICATION; climate; Climate; CONSERVATION; Conservation of Natural Resources; conservation planning; COSTS; ecosystem service; environmental protection; Fisheries; fishery; food security; Food Supply; Geologic Sediments; global ocean; Global Warming; greenhouse effect; human activities; Human Activities; human activity; IMPACT; international cooperation; International Cooperation; Matthiola; MODEL; ORGANIC-MATTER; prevention and control; prioritization; RESUSPENSION; sediment; SEDIMENTS; TAKE MARINE RESERVES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Today, these MPAs are faced with various problems, including pollution, which has a negative impact on their state of health. The aim of this study is to establish a baseline of phytoplankton diversity in the Sangomar MPA for better conservation management. Phytoplankton sampling, accompanied by measurements of hydrological parameters (temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, pH and transparency), were carried out at various MPA stations between November 2021 and November 2022. Phytoplankton diversity and abundance were also monitored. Analysis of the results showed that salinity, pH and dissolved oxygen were significantly influenced by the season, while these variations were not significant between stations. Phytoplankton sampling revealed 241 species for all stations and seasons combined. These species are dominated by Bacillariophytes (189 species) and Dinophytes (37 species). Specific richness, as opposed to phytoplankton abundance, was higher during the dry season, with 207 species compared with 161 during the rainy season.

The aims of the study were: 1) to describe the community structure of the reef fish community of CIBR and 2) to update the list of the coastal fish species recorded until today. For the first objective, 50 stationary fish counts were conducted at 10 locations around Cano Island, in which 79 species, belonging to 32 families, were registered. The most abundant family was Pomacentridae, and the most abundant species was Chromis atrilobata. Planktivorous and carnivorous fish were the most abundant. The existence of a relationship between coral cover and the presence of herbivorous grazers was highlighted within the analysis. Additionally, species composition was compared by site and this revealed that ""El Barco"" has an abundant presence of snappers.

The vast majority of the Portuguese fish farms are located in estuarine protected areas and production of marine fish species is done mostly in semi-intensive regimes and with the imposition of some restrictive rules. This exposed form of production is prone to predation by wild animals. The Eurasian otter Lutra lutra is widely distributed in Portugal and this combination of factors has led to a conflict scenario between fish farming and the conservation of otters. This study aimed to determine the influence of landscape factors in otter damages in fish farms of Sado estuary (SW Portugal) and the usefulness of visiting rates and otter diet as surrogates for damage assessment. The impact of otter predation (damage) in each fish farm was assessed by combining the percentage of consumption of reared species with otter daily food consumption, daily visitation rates, and number of otters visiting each fish farm. Landscape descriptors were recorded in the field and several landscape metrics were calculated using a geographic information system. Multiple linear regressions were used to identify key landscape factors for damage and for damage surrogates. Distance to streams and refuge cover areas were identified as key landscape features to damages. This information can be used as a management tool in landscape planning, specifically in estuaries with fish-farming activity, as high-risk farms can be identified and selectively protected. © Springer-Verlag 2009.",,345-355,,4,55,,Eur.

There is a need for more information on the distribution of these taxa in relation to the distribution of demersal fishing effort, and the distribution of marine protected areas, in order to improve spatial planning. There are many marine managed areas in Southern California, including essential fish habitat (EFH) areas, conservation areas, and a national marine sanctuary, but specific areas of overlap between bottom fishing and benthic epifauna are poorly known. Groundfish surveys were conducted by the National Marine Fisheries Service using a remotely operated vehicle throughout Southern California between 2003 and 2011 to document abundance and distribution of deep-water rockfish and flatfish to a depth of 500 m. Corals and sponges were also common in these images, providing an opportunity to examine these communities. Analyses of 34,792 still images revealed abundance and diversity of coral and sponge taxa, as well as frequency of fishing debris. The occurrence data were overlaid in a geographic information system with landings data for deep-water (<50 m) demersal fisheries to identify areas of spatial overlap. Corals or sponges were observed in 23% of images. A total of 15 coral genera and six sponge morphotypes were identified.

There are still many remote areas, such as oceanic islands and isolated communities disconnected from the grid, that depend on fossil fuels to make it viable. Fernando de Noronha, a tropical oceanic island in Brazil, is a typical case where replacing the diesel-based power plant for renewable energy is imperative, therefore, it served as a testbed for this investigation. This paper presents the implementation and results of a low-cost framework for assessing the photovoltaic potential of rooftops. Using a real case study, the objective is to explore how effective rooftop photovoltaic systems could be on Fernando de Noronha Island by applying low-cost aerophotogrammetry, geospatial analysis and scenario creation. The first approach was mapping buildings, open spaces and solar obstacles using unmanned aerial photogrammetric survey that delivered high-quality digital elevation surface. The 3D rooftop surfaces fed the solar irradiation models and enabled to compute the photovoltaic potential of suitable rooftops. Findings show that 83.3% of the total building rooftop area was deemed economically viable for photovoltaic installations. Furthermore, 80.0% and 60.0% of the rooftops receive annual irradiation levels >1600 kWh/m2 and 2000 kWh/m2, respectively, indicating high potential for exploiting solar resources on decentralized, highly irradiated rooftops. The scenario with the highest photovoltaic potential is three times higher than the lowest. The results indicate that the suitability of rooftops for various photovoltaic system sizes offers the possibility of deploying a combination of smaller and larger urban photovoltaic installations. Furthermore, the decentralized photovoltaic rooftops can compensate for between 66 and 199% of the estimated annual consumption of 31 GWh in 2031. The method is highly transferrable and limited solely by the availability of sources of geospatial data and coordination with stakeholders. The investigation meets the needs of the Brazilian Ministry of Mines and Energy, therefore meeting the environmental needs of the energy sector by promoting renewable energy for the island which is a UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site and Brazilian National Marine Park and Environmental Protected Area. The investigation demonstrated that creating photovoltaic potential scenarios that nurture informed decision-making processes is a crucial initial step in urban renewable energy planning. The pioneering 2000-ha unmanned aerial photogrammetric survey proved to be a cost-efficient method for producing accurate data for modeling the irradiation and photovoltaic potential in urban areas. The investigation fills the literature gap on modeling photovoltaic potential for remote islands by blending unmanned aerial vehicles and geospatial tools. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,337,,Appl.

Investigating the trophic ecology of this group of species is thus essential to understand ecosystem functioning and inform specific management actions aimed at shark conservation. The Galapagos Islands represent one of the last ocean wildernesses, where populations of sharks and other top marine predators come close to a pristine status. Here we provide the first study on the trophic ecology of the tiger shark (Galeocerdo cuvier) within the Galapagos Marine Reserve (GMR), using a combination of stable isotope analysis, satellite tracking, and passive acoustic telemetry to investigate ontogenetic and spatial variations at two regions. The mean estimated ?13C and ?15N at Isabela island (western region) were -13.9 ± 0.5% and 13.7 ± 0.7%; and for Santa Cruz island (central region) were -13.8 ± 0.3% and 13.4 ± 0.7%, respectively. Green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) were the main prey item for large tiger sharks (>280 cm TL), while smaller sharks mainly fed on squid and pelagic fish. Tiger sharks exhibited a high degree of philopatry around green sea-turtle nesting areas, with the majority of sharks detected around green sea-turtle nesting areas for at least 10 months after their capture date, and some individuals were even present during the entire three-year study period. Although we did not report statistically significant differences between the two regions, isotopic and electronic tagging data suggest that tiger sharks in the Galapagos could be segregated into specific populations separated by geographical scales of <100 km. The high productivity of the archipelago, along with the protection from industrial fishing granted by the GMR, result in abundant and predictable sources of prey. This high food abundance, combined with the presence of suitable habitats throughout the tiger shark life cycle, might result in a reduction of migratory behaviours when compared to movement patterns of tiger sharks in other ocean basins. Additional studies using genetic tools could provide further evidence on the presence of separate management units, as it has been recently revealed for other shark species inhabiting the GMR. © 2019 Salinas-de-León et al.

Here, biodiversity values are largely determined by human actions, so that biological and cultural diversity are inextricably linked. A landscape approach to planning and management of these areas, one that focuses both on natural and cultural aspects of conservation, is therefore necessary. This statement, which could seem quite obvious, has been only recently recognized by the main international policies for Euro-Mediterranean coastal areas, where landscape has until recently played a minor role compared to naturalistic and socio-economic aspects. An example of landscape-oriented strategies aimed at conserving both natural and cultural diversity is represented by the policies developed by some Regional Parks—all classified as ‘Protected Landscapes’ (category V Protected Areas, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature classification system)—situated along the coast of the Latin Arc countries. This paper presents the management experiences developed inside these areas, highlighting their innovative approach to conservation and envisaging the more general role that Protected Areas, and Protected Landscapes in particular, could play in the wider context of the Euro-Mediterranean coastal landscape. © 2016, Springer International Publishing Switzerland.",,471-485,,,5,,,,,,,,Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Environ.

Consequently the principles, criteria, and practices, of terrestrial protected areas tend to be transferred to the seas, where they are often inappropriate. In contrast to the situations with at all comparable sites on land, there is a sad shortage of published material on the application of ecological principles to the design and management of marine protected areas. Using the example of coral reefs, guidelines are presented here in the hope that they will elicit comment and stimulate the publication of similar guidelines for different marine environments. Coral-reef protected-area boundaries must fulfil two requirements: they must include appropriate coral-reef, confluent and neighbouring habitats, and a sufficient area of each. The first requirement defines the type, and the second the quantity, of habitats to be included in a protected area. Studies in the Chagos Archipelago, Indian Ocean, indicate that, there, the core zone of a protected coral-reef area should encompass 300 ha of diverse reef habitats if preservation of biotic diversity is the principal objective. The buffer-zone size needed will vary according to activities planned within the area, the extent of neighbouring coastal habitats, and the proximity of up-current or otherwise ‘linked’ sources of potential contamination. © 1984, Foundation for Environmental Conservation.

By integrating organism dispersal rates, ecosystem interactions and fishing effort dynamics, ECOSPACE, a spatially explicit ecosystem-based modeling tool, allowed us to compare the ecological consequences of alternative MPA zoning policies within the proposed Gwaii Haanas National Marine Conservation Area, located off the west coast of British Columbia, Canada. The desired effects of MPAs include higher fishery yields, the conservation of biodiversity, and/or the preservation of intact ecosystems. However, ECOSPACE predicts that when MPAs are small, species interactions and movements may make these objectives difficult to achieve. ECOSPACE suggests that the effects of MPAs are reduced at their boundaries where fishing effort is predicted to concentrate. Furthermore, top predators may become more abundant within MPAs, which could lead to a depression of their prey species and a subsequent increase of species at even lower trophic levels. Trophic cascade patterns and density gradients across boundaries are nontrivial departures from our simple expectations of how MPAs protect areas and will force us to reconsider what constitutes effective conservation. Our ECOSPACE model indicates that the establishment of multi-use buffer zones may help alleviate these realistic but worrisome ecological predictions. When coupled with an overall reduction in harvest pressure, ECOSPACE suggests that a MPA with a large core 'no-take' zone and large buffer will result in the greatest increase in organism biomass.

The question in the following is on how marine protection issues can be more closely integrated in sectoral policies under the conditions prevailing at present. In particular the strength and weaknesses of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) as the key instrument for marine environment protection in Europe are analyzed in this context. In particular, the MSFD does not adequately address all sectors and policies which are relevant to marine environment protection. One possible means of giving the MSFD greater influences on other policies of relevance to marine waters is to integrate the objectives established under the MSFD in the European maritime policy. The aim should be to require the further development of sectoral policies to take unrestricted account of the objectives of the MSFD implementation process.

However, legal restrictions derived from the protection of other interests that converge in the marine environment (such as fishing, navigation, and biodiversity conservation) must be considered, along with technical limitations resulting from water depth. This study is aimed at analysing legal restrictions on the installation of OWFs in Galician waters and at identifying those zones of less conflict where the wind power density (WPD) is greater and the depths and distances from the coast are technically feasible given the current status of technology in Europe. To do this, a legal study was performed of both the strategic environmental assessment of the Spanish coast and the regulations of the different marine sectors at European, international, national, and regional levels. In addition, the WPD along the north-western area of the Iberian Peninsula and Europe was calculated, and an analysis of maximum and average depths and distances from the coast of planned and installed OWFs in Europe was made. Two main zones without legal and technical restrictions were identified in the north-eastern corner of Galicia and in the south of the Vigo estuary. The greatest WPD was identified in the north-western zone, from Cape Finisterre to Cape Ortegal, where there are small sites without legal or technical restrictions that are near several protected zones (such as a marine reserve, a special protected area, and a wetland and its buffer zone), making necessary a deeper analysis of the specific impacts of each OWF project in the Environmental Impact Assessment. © 2018 by the authors.

While most studies have focused on the processes of colonization and dispersal between landmasses, the phylogeographical structures within islands have received less attention. Here, we investigate the Pleistocene evolutionary history of the fire salamander Salamandra corsica. Our main aim is to shed more light on the importance of intra-island micro-evolutionary processes in structuring the patterns of biodiversity on Mediterranean islands. Location: Corsica Island. Methods: We sampled 165 individuals across the entire range of S. corsica, and we sequenced two mitochondrial (cytb and cox1) and one nuclear (ßfib) gene fragments. We used Bayesian phylogeographical and historical demographic analyses based on DNA sequence data, together with species distribution modelling (SDM) under the present and past bioclimatic envelopes. Results: Bayesian phylogeographical analyses indicated that S. corsica (re)colonized its northern range during the Last Interglacial period from an ancestral area located in central-southern Corsica. According to these analyses and the SDM, S. corsica was already established throughout the island during the last glacial phase, although likely with a fragmented distribution. Historical demographic analyses suggested a post-glacial demographic expansion, probably associated with the climate-driven spatial and temporal dynamics of forested habitats. Main conclusions: Despite its restricted and insular distribution, S. corsica showed past demographic and range dynamics that are comparable to those of wide-ranging species on the continent. These dynamics are not consistent with temporal, spatial, and demographic patterns previously seen for other Corsican endemics. Such patterns of complex Pleistocene evolutionary histories and extensive phylogeographical discordance are also emerging from other insular systems. We conclude that island endemics should not be considered, a priori, as single populations and conservation units, and that the use of co-occurrence patterns of island populations as inferential tools in historical biogeography should also be carefully reconsidered. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,192-203,,1,43,,J.

An understanding of large carnivore population densities, distribution and dynamics is therefore critical for developing effective conservation strategies across landscapes. This is particularly important in island environments where species face increased extinction risk due to genetic isolation coupled with local losses of finite habitat. The Sri Lankan leopard Panthera pardus kotiya is one of two remaining island-living leopards on Earth and the only apex predator in Sri Lanka. Despite its iconic status in Sri Lanka, robust research on the species has been limited to only a handful of scientific studies, limiting meaningful scientific recommendations for the species’ conservation and management. In this study, we conducted a single season camera trap survey in Sri Lanka's largest protected area, Wilpattu National Park (1317 km2), located in the country's northwest. Our objective was to estimate key ecological state variables of interest (density, abundance, sex-specific movement and spatial distribution) of this leopard subspecies. Our results indicate that Wilpattu National Park supports a density of 18 individuals/100 km2 (posterior SD=1.5; 95% HPD interval=16–21) with a mean abundance of 144 (posterior SD=15) individual leopards and a healthy sex ratio (f:m=2.03:1). The estimated activity range for male leopards > 2 years old was 49.53 km2 (Posterior SD=3.43; HPD interval=43.09–56.41) and for female leopards > 2 years old was 22.04 km2 (Posterior SD=1.82; HPD interval=18.34–25.65). This density falls at the higher end of published estimates for the species anywhere in its global range, based on similar methods. Given Sri Lanka's limited size, this national park system should be considered as a critical stronghold that maintains a source population of leopards, contributing to the long-term population viability of leopards in the larger landscape. © 2022",,,,,37,,Glob.

Our results show that the biological assemblage composed of fish, macroinvertebrates and cryptic fish, and macroalgae species in unprotected zones requires a higher ecological recovery cost than in partially protected zones when moving towards a fully protected community.

These issues concern on the one hand, the non-recognition by Morocco of Spanish sovereignty over the Cities, Islands and Rocks in North of Africa; and on the otherhand, Spain's planned implementation of the Marine Strategy in Melilla, in a maritime area not reflected in the national legislation. This should force a bilateral cooperation on environmental issues within the framework of existing international agreements. Through the adoption of Law 41/2010, on marine environmental protection, Spain has proceeded with the transposition into its national legal framework the European Marine Strategy (Framework Directive 2008/56/EC). Following the same parameters as the Framework Directive, Law 41/2010 ultimate objective is the establishment of a ""good environmental status"" by 2020. Furthermore, the Law clearly defines the terms ""Marine Strategy"", ""Environmental Objectives"" and ""Programs of Measures"" among others. It also simplifies the regulation of the various phases established for achieving the marine strategies, such as the following: 1. - Initial assessment of the state of the marine environment; 2. - Determination of good environmental status; 3. - Establishment of environmental objectives; 4. - Establishment of a monitoring program; 5. - Development and implementation of a program of measures to achieve a good environmental status. These phases are completed with the provisions of the 4th Additional Provision, which includes a timetable for the development and implementation of these strategies. The strategies adopted should reinforce other measures taken in regional treaties, such as the Convention for the Protection of Marine Environment of the Coastal Region of the Mediterranean (Barcelona Convention). Moreover, and in accordance with the principle of flexibility in the development of marine strategies, consistency should be ensured with a number of procedural principles and planning criteria such as the precautionary principle, the ecosystem approach, legal requirements, sustainable development, preventive action, rectifying environmental damage at source and that the polluter should pay. Also, Law 41/2010, as well as the European Marine Strategy, foresees the need for cooperation with other States when sharing the same marine region. Law 41/2010 states that the strategies are to cover the Territorial Sea, the Exclusive Economic Zone, Continental Shelf and Ecological or Fisheries Protected Areas, as well as ""coastal waters"" if not already protected by the Water legislation. In addition, the Law creates the concept of ""demarcación marina"", corresponding to each of the five created, a marine strategy. These ""demarcations"" correspond to the marine environment over which Spain has sovereignty or jurisdiction, in the following geographical areas: a) North Atlantic Marine Demarcation; b) South Atlantic Marine Demarcation; c) East-Balearic Marine Demarcation; d) Canary islands Marine Demarcation; e) Estrecho de Gibraltar - Alborán Marine Demarcation. The Marine Demarcation ""Estrecho de Gibraltar-Alborán"" includes the marine environment over which Spain has sovereignty or jurisdiction in the area of Ceuta, Melilla, Chafarinas Islands, the rock of Perejil, Vélez de la Gomera and Alhucemas and the island of Alboran. This last reference to the islands and rocks over which Spain has sovereignty or jurisdiction in North Africa represents an exceptional legal support to Spanish claims of sovereignty over these territories. Also, it's the first time that Perejil rock is referred to in the Spanish legal system.The demarcation ""Estrecho de Gibraltar-Alborán"" necessarily implies, in the light of of Spanish and European laws, a partnership with Morocco when developing marine strategies. However, this is also unlikely to succeed, because there is no maritime boundaries delimitation agreement between the two countries. This is the con sequence of the territorial claim by Morocco of cities, islands and rocks of Spanish sovereignty in northern Africa, which led Morocco to close its Mediterranean shores with straight baselines, locking or even misusing Spanish territories in support to its violation of General International Law. Currently, the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Environment has published the documents related to the ""Marine Strategies, Initial Assessment, Good environment and environmental objectives"" - These documents have been subject to public consultation on the website of the Ministry. In the section on ""bi-tri-lateral meetings"" within the the framework of the Strategy document, there is no reference to Morocco nor to any meeting held by Spain with other neighboring countries.. Neither does it refer to these meetings in the Strategy for the Estrecho de Gibraltar-Alboran. According to this document by the Ministry, in the case of Melilla, the strategy would affect a portion of water, understood as Territorial Sea starting from the normal baselines, that is the low-water line along the coast. This interpretation would be the strict application of international and Spanish (Law 10/1977) legal framework. The Territorial Sea will extend seaward until the end of the EEZ of Morocco, and from drawing two parallel lines based on land boundaries, north and south, of the city of Melilla. In fact, there is a confidential Nautical Chart prepared by the Spanish Marine Hydrographic Institute in which are reflected these water coordinates called ""Jurisdictional Waters"" (Territorial Sea). Spain has never made public or official this Waters. For the purpose of protecting the marine environment and the implementation of the European Marine Strategy in the city of Melilla, we consider that there's a need for practical arrangements between the two States and forgetting any claim of sovereignty. Since the environment is a Good (asset) shared by all States. Hence, there are international legal texts that would allow such cooperation. Firstly, the Friendship and Cooperation Treaty between Spain and Morocco of 1991, refers to respect for international law, territorial integrity of states and the non-use of force between the parties. Secondly, there is the bilateral agreement on environmental cooperation, of 2000, which could serve as the legal basis for the implementation of the Marine Strategy for Marine Demarcation ""Estrecho de Gibraltar-Alborán"" through the exchange of information, opinions and suggestions and technical assistance. The whole legal package could be placed under the supervision of a Joint Monitoring Committee. Moreover, the Barcelona Convention to which both States are parties, gives the possibility of concluding bilateral agreements and establish the general obligation to protect the environment and contribute to sustainable development. Finally, within the EU, the Euro-Mediterranean agreement with Morocco, of 2000, provides for cooperation in the areas including monitoring and preventing pollution of the sea. And in the EU-Morocco Action Plan implementing the advanced status of 2013, the promotion and protection of the marine environment are expected, including conservation of marine ecosystems and the increase of cooperation under the Barcelona Convention and its protocols. In summary, our opinion is that there are adequate legal instruments to achieve a good environmental status in the city of Melilla. This is possible through practical cooperation between Morocco and Spain and without affecting sovereignty claims, and always with a serious political will of both countries. Environment, and the Marine Environment, is a Good shared by the entire International Community.",,17-42,,101,,,Rev. Estud.

To explore the potential contribution of these artificial reefs as a conservation tool, we compared their benthic community structures (i.e. diversity and live cover categories) to those of the natural reefs. Our results indicate a higher abundance of mollusks on the artificial reefs compared to the natural reefs; a higher echinoderm abundance on the natural reefs; and a very similar species richness of hexacorals between the natural and artificial reefs, with 10 and 9 species recorded respectively. The natural reefs hosted a four-fold higher live cover of hexacorals than the artificial reefs, while the artificial reefs had a higher number of octocoral species, 8 versus 5 on the natural reefs. In addition, the artificial reefs had a 4.6 fold higher octocoral cover than the natural reefs. Overall findings indicate that the benthic community assemblages significantly differ between the natural and artificial reefs, which may be related to their location, structural composition, material, and morphology. These results suggest that shipwrecks have the potential to enhance local reef diversity by increasing the cover and abundance of certain benthic-associated species. Although the shipwrecks do not function as surrogate habitats for the adjacent natural rocky reefs, as no-take areas they provide suitable refuges for several target species (e.g. black coral and mollusks). © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,287,,Estuar.

This study’s goal is to demonstrate how the identification of ichthyoplankton species and stages and their spatial distribution among natural reefs (NRs) and artificial reefs (ARs) may serve as decision-making tools in conservation and fishery management. Natural reefs exhibited an eight-times higher abundance of eggs, as well as the highest abundance of larvae in the yolk-sac and preflexion phases. In contrast, ARs had the highest abundance of larvae in the flexion and postflexion phases. Natural reefs may serve as breeding grounds for Scaridae, Labridae, and Mugilidae; whereas, ARs may serve as breeding sites for Lutjanidae, Synodontidae, Carangidae, Fistularidae, and Haemulidae. Our study revealed differences between ARs and NRs, which demonstrate the potential of artificial reefs to expand the supply and settlement options of reef fishes and consequently can lead to increased fish production with potential benefits to adjacent fishing areas through connectivity. Thus, ARs as no-take sites can be effective tools for both fishery management and biodiversity conservation.

Although feeding at the overwintering sites in Mexico has long been considered unimportant, observations show that butterflies feed inside and outside of their forests on sunny days. Nectaring close to the hibernation colonies may be relevant for their conservation, as their reserves decline faster in disturbed forests. However, there are no systematic studies on nectar sources in the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve, Michoacán, Mexico. Aims: In this study, we identified and quantified the main plant species visited by butterflies for nectaring in the Reserve. Methods: We collected systematic observational data on the flora and butterfly visits in three sanctuaries, around colonies formed between February and March of the 2019–2020 season. Results: Butterflies fed on 29 plant species from 10 families. Most had white, yellow or blue flowers, were somewhat synanthropic and had their main flowering season in winter. The most visited species were Salvia mexicana and S. plurispicata, which were also the most abundant. By individual plant, Prunus serotina, Crataegus mexicana, Buddleja sessiliflora, Verbesina oncophora and Roldana albonervia were the most visited. Discussion/Implications for insect conservation: The results point to possible interventions in support of the butterflies. The visited species are generally easy to encourage or cultivate and could be promoted in the surrounding agricultural areas. © 2022, The Author(s).",,181-191,,1,27,,J.

The demography of seven module and genet populations was Studied in seven sites representing three stages of old-field succession. Seven permanent one-meter-square plots were randomly established in each site. Ail genets initially present and those that became established during our study were mapped and labeled according to year of establishment The magnitude of demographic fluctuations was greater in module populations. Genet population dynamics followed a seasonal rhythm with a maximum population size obtained at the onset of the rainy season. A relation was documented between percent annual mortality of a cohort and its age: the younger the cohort, the greater the mortality. This was a statistically significant relationship, Y = [sin (-0.288x + 1.657)](2) (r = 0.92, p < 0.01), where is proportion annual mortality of genets and is the age of the cohort. The maximum rates of genet mortality occurred during the rainy season when population densities were greatest. As a consequence, we postulate that competition occurs principally during the rainy season. Linear relationships were observed between rate of population increase of genets versus old-field successional stage and soil type. Those areas with poor soil (Ultisol), degraded soil or soils with similar physical characteristics could be rehabilitated by introducing Z diploperennis.

We conducted a global classification of terrestrial geophysical diversity and analyzed how land protection varies across geophysical diversity types. Geophysical diversity was classified in terms of soil type, elevation, and biogeographic realm and then compared to the global distribution of protected areas in 2012. We found that 300 (45%) of 672 broad geophysical diversity types currently meet the Convention on Biological Diversity's Aichi Target 11 of 17% terrestrial areal protection, which suggested that efforts to implement geophysical diversity conservation have a substantive basis on which to build. However, current protected areas were heavily biased toward high elevation and low fertility soils. We assessed 3 scenarios of protected area expansion and found that protection focused on threatened species, if fully implemented, would also protect an additional 29% of geophysical diversity types, ecoregional-focused protection would protect an additional 24%, and a combined scenario would protect an additional 42%. Future efforts need to specifically target low-elevation sites with productive soils for protection and manage for connectivity among geophysical diversity types. These efforts may be hampered by the sheer number of geophysical diversity facets that the world contains, which makes clear target setting and prioritization an important next step.

Llevamos a cabo una clasificacion mundial de la diversidad geofisica terrestre y analizamos la variacion de la proteccion del suelo a lo largo de los tipos de diversidad geofisica. La diversidad geofisica se clasifico en terminos de tipo de suelo, elevacion y reino biogeografico y despues se comparo con la distribucion global de las areas protegidas en 2012. Encontramos que 300 (45%) de los 627 tipos generales de diversidad geofisica actualmente cumplen con el Objetivo Aichi 11 de la Convencion sobre la Diversidad Biologica de 17% de proteccion de area terrestre, lo que sugiere que los esfuerzos por implementar la conservacion de la diversidad geofisica tienen una base sustancial sobre la cual fundamentarse. Sin embargo, las areas protegidas actuales fueron fuertemente parciales hacia los suelos de alta elevacion y baja fertilidad. Evaluamos tres escenarios de la expansion de areas protegidas y encontramos que la proteccion enfocada en especies amenazadas, si se implementa de lleno, tambien protegeria a un 29% adicional de tipos de diversidad geofisica; la proteccion enfocada en eco-regiones protegeria a un 24% adicional, y un escenario combinado protegeria a un 42% adicional. Los esfuerzos futuros necesitan enfocarse especificamente en sitios de poca elevacion con suelos productivos para la proteccion y manejarse para la conectividad entre los tipos de diversidad geofisica. Estos esfuerzos pueden dificultarse simplemente por el numero de facetas de diversidad geofisica que existen en el mundo, lo cual hace que el establecimiento claro de objetivos y la priorizacion sean un siguiente paso importante.

From 2014 to 2017, we monitored 11 waterholes with camera traps. We compared diel activity patterns with circular statistics depending on waterholes’ level of human intensity and distance to the Calakmul road, seasonality, and sex. We identified 40 different ocelots. Four waterholes were the most important ones, being 2 of them close to the road. Individuals took on average 19 days to return to waterholes. The diel activity of ocelots was 63.67% nocturnal, 20.70% crepuscular and 15.60% diurnal, and they were more diurnal in waterholes distant from the road. Their activity pattern was bimodal and it did not change between any of the categories tested. This is the first study to determine the spatial and temporal activity of ocelots in waterholes of Mexico. Ocelots are mainly nocturnal, and this pattern is conserved throughout CBR, however, they are able to adjust slightly their activity depending on extrinsic factors, such as an increased human presence. In the Calakmul region, all waterholes are crucial, and we particularly emphasize the conservation of the most important waterholes for ocelots, especially the ones close to the road. © 2022 Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico.

Genetic biodiversity is critical for species’ adaptation to changing environmental conditions and is protected by international agreements. Nevertheless, recent research indicates that genetic biodiversity is neglected in marine environments and in the management of MPAs. This study focuses on Sweden and Finland, which together govern a substantial part of Baltic Sea MPAs, and builds on in-depth interviews with regional conservation managers that are responsible for establishing and managing these areas. The empirical findings confirm that genetic biodiversity is absent, or plays a minor role, in contemporary MPA management. The findings also provide several possible explanations to this situation: unclear understandings of formal policy, lack of resources, deficient knowledge base, and the managers’ own policy beliefs. Policy makers and high-level managers need to consider these aspects in their efforts to protect biodiversity. © 2016, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,1187-1205,,6,25,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Netherlands,,,,assessment method; Atlantic Ocean; Baltic Sea; biodiversity; Biodiversity; conservation management; Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD); environmental change; environmental conditions; Finland; genetic variation; Genetic variation; HELCOM; Implementation resources; management practice; marine environment; Marine management; marine policy; Marine policy; MPA; Policy beliefs; policy making; policy reform; protected area; Sweden,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Most of the agrarian society in Indonesia is concentrated in the Java island. The Mount Patuha Area in West Java is considered to be a suitable area for agriculture. In May 2017, there has been erosion and major flood lately due to annual crop changed to seasonal crops in the Mount Patuha Area. This study aims to analyze spatially the suitability of agricultural plant types based on the WTU concept and soil types to prevent environmental damage from happening again and maintaining the sustainability of the agricultural sector. The Cultivated Land Region concept is also known as ""Wilayah Tanah Usaha"" (WTU) in Indonesia is an approach to manage agricultural land properly and sustainably based on the land elevation and slope as limiting factor from soil damage. Soil type also determines the plant suitability. This study is utilizing Geographic Information System (GIS) to overlay spatial data in the form of a DEM, soil types, and land use. The results show that WTU category in Patuha Mount Area is dominated by Second Main Area and Second Restricted Area, with soil type dominated by cambisol and the dominant plant type is tea plantation. This study concluded that there are still many agricultural plant types that are not in line with the WTU concept. The WTU concept is suitable to be applied in the Mount Patuha area as long as the farmers can adapt their land management by balancing with soil conservation technique such as make terracing on steep slopes and maintaining the second restricted area in permanent vegetation conditions. © 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd.

The spatial area closure within the Easter group of the Houtman Abrolhos Islands was found to have no significant effect on the species composition and relative abundance of pelagic fish assemblages. The most abundant demersal target species recorded was pink snapper (Chrysophrys auratus) and, individuals measured within the spatial closure were significantly larger than those sampled in the area open to fishing. This spatial area closure is of moderate size (22.3 km(2)), but the spatial management of highly mobile species may require larger area closures than those for reef-associated species. The monitoring of pelagic species both in large and small spatial area closures is required in order to better understand how mobile species respond to this management strategy. Some species were only recorded in relatively low numbers using pelagic stereo-BRUVs. Moreover, some of the highly mobile pelagic fish species, such as tunas, mackerel and some shark species have proven difficult to measure, as these species were observed furthest from the camera systems. While pelagic stereo-BRUVs are an effective fishery-independent approach to monitor spatial fishing closures, improving the power of replicates by pooling individual deployments, and increasing the attraction rate of pelagic fish to the stereo-cameras, will enhance their performance in future studies.

Little research has been conducted on the measurement and assessment of CESs through user perception, especially when the focus is on people with disabilities. The aim of this research is therefore to determine the CESs in a study area and to evaluate their perception by users, especially those with disabilities. The chosen study area is a dunefield with protected status that is typically used as a tourism resource. Located in the south of Gran Canaria (Canary Islands, Spain), the area surrounding the dunefield is one of the most important tourist destinations in Spain. The present research use a methodological approach to assess user perception of CESs. This was measured through 654 surveys at a total of 11 urban and natural survey points. Of these 654 surveys, separate analyses were made of the 46 which were held with people with disabilities. Firstly, the statistical relationships between the preferences of the two user types (with and without disabilities) are analyzed and discussed. Secondly, a study is undertaken as to whether the environmental management and/or/land uses of/around this protected area meet the expectations of the users, especially those with disabilities. The main results show that “landscape contemplation” was the most widely acknowledged and valued CES by both user types, especially those surveyed at the urban survey points. The “inspiration to be creative” CES obtained the lowest score at the natural survey points and the “social activities” CES at the urban survey points. Finally, it was found that the type of disability itself was not a statistically significant conditioning factor but that the specific type of disability was. The most influential social variables in the perception of CESs in Maspalomas were, in order, gender, companion, place of residence, age and type of disability. The results presented in this work can be applied to the management of the aeolian sedimentary system and to optimize user experience in the Maspalomas Dunes Special Natural Reserve. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,228,,Ocean Coast.

With the aim of generating updated information that allows to know the presence and distribution of the different types of reefs (coral, rocky-coral, rocky, and rocky with Macrocystis pyrifera), as well as to know the uses and pressures to which they are subjected. In this article we present an inventory of the 755 reef ecosystems known in Mexico based in a literature review of 194 documents and validated by informal interviews to key Mexican experts. Mexican reefs are distributed in seven regions identified for reef management purposes, according to the combination of eight maritime regionalization proposals of the Mexican seas. The main uses of reef ecosystems are fishing, tourism, nautical, and mining, which produce eight main pressures: pollution, habitat fragmentation, coral bleaching, overfishing, exotic species introduction, sedimentation, coral mortality, and coral diseases. These uses and pressures are distributed heterogeneously in the seven reef regions. The main conservation tool used by Mexican Federal Government to protect these reefs are the Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). Almost 45% of the listed reefs are within one of the 30 Mexican MPAs, being the coral reefs the ones that predominate in this protection scheme. In this research we present relevant information for the management of the reef ecosystems of Mexico, which support the debate on the analysis of public policies for their conservation. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,39-51,,,165,,Ocean Coast.

Because of the isolation of the massif, the area has a rich biodiversity and a high level of endemism. While searching for populations of the rare and critically endangered Syagrus cabraliensis, a new bluish-leaved palm species was discovered and it is described here. Material and methods – The new species’ morphology is described based on field collections. The pinnae were analysed using SEM and LM cross-and longitudinal sections following default methodology. In addition, we compared the species to S. cabraliensis and provided ecological notes and a conservation status assessment. Key results – Syagrus carvalhoi resembles S. cabraliensis but they can easily be distinguished by morphoanatomical characters. Both species occur non-sympatrically in the Serra do Cabral, in contrasting microhabitats: S. carvalhoi in the southern quartzitic campos rupestres and S. cabraliensis in the northern ferruginous campos rupestres. A key to the known grass-like Syagrus species from the massif is provided. Based on the restricted area of occurrence and the anthropogenic threats, Syagrus carvalhoi is assessed as critically endangered. Conclusion – Syagrus carvalhoi is the second grass-like endemic Syagrus species from the Serra do Cabral and presents rare characters within the genus (grass-like aspect, colonial habit, flowers in tetrads, and the stem forking at or below the ground). This discovery corroborates that this isolated OCBIL is a home for endemic and rare palm species. The Serra do Cabral massif has proved a source of morphological and anatomical novelties in Arecaceae, affecting the taxonomy and understanding of the evolution and ecology of palms. Our results reinforce the notion that it is important to conserve this area with rich and rare biodiversity but under alarming and unprecedented threats. © Bruno Francisco Sant’Anna-Santos, Rafael Micheli, Luiz Fernando Lima Carvalho, Patrícia Soffiatti.",,129-145,,2,156,,Plant Ecol.

Increasingly, coral reef protection and restoration programs emphasize the need for robust assessment tools for protecting high-quality waters and establishing conservation goals. Of equal importance is the need to communicate assessment results to stakeholders, beneficiaries, and the public so that environmental consequences of decisions are understood. The Biological Condition (BCG) model provides a structure to evaluate the condition of a coral reef in increments of change along a gradient of human disturbance. Communication of incremental change, regardless of direction, is important for decision makers and the public to better understand what is gained or lost depending on what actions are taken. We developed a narrative (qualitative) Biological Condition Gradient (BCG) from the consensus of a diverse expert panel to provide a framework for coral reefs in US Caribbean Territories. The model uses narrative descriptions of biological attributes for benthic organisms to evaluate reefs relative to undisturbed or minimally disturbed conditions. Using expert elicitation, narrative decision rules were proposed and deliberated to discriminate among six levels of change along a gradient of increasing anthropogenic stress. Narrative rules for each of the BCG levels are presented to facilitate the evaluation of benthic communities in coral reefs and provide specific narrative features to detect changes in coral reef condition and biological integrity. The BCG model can be used in the absence of numeric, or quantitative metrics, to evaluate actions that may encroach on coral reef ecosystems, manage endangered species habitat, and develop and implement management plans for marine protected areas, watersheds, and coastal zones. The narrative BCG model is a defensible model and communication tool that translates scientific results so the nontechnical person can understand and support both regulatory and non-regulatory water quality and natural resource programs. © 2022",,,,,138,,Ecol.

Protected areas (PAs) can have a key role in counteracting deforestation, especially if they are combined with the active involvement of local communities, rather than be only based on strict nature conservation. The study aims at assessing and measuring forest transformations in 1950–2017 through GIS-based spatial analyses, and to evaluate the role of PAs in preserving forests from deforestation. At national level forests dramatically decreased, passing from 78.3% of the total surface in 1950, to 63.8% in 1982 and to 46.8% in 2017. In the period 1950–2017, 35% of the national territory (over 66 million of hectares) has been affected by deforestation at an average rate of 985,200 ha/year; the areas where deforestation proceeded at higher rates are Sumatra (356,100 ha/year) and Kalimantan (303,360 ha/year). Deforestation occurred with higher intensity at lower altitudes and along the coast, due to the spread of modern plantations. The only exception is represented by Java and Bali as most of deforestation already occurred before 1950. PAs demonstrated to be effective in slowing down deforestation rates, but not in stopping it as deforestation is also affecting PAs. The study provided reliable spatial data on forest transformations in the last 67 years, highlighting differences related to geographical zone and altimetry, allowing the identification of the most vulnerable PAs. The amount of data produced at national and regional level could support further studies aimed at recognizing the best strategies to counteract deforestation, contributing to sustainable forests management and to forest preservation. © 2023, The Author(s).",,,,,,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,Deforestation; Forest; Indonesia; Primary forests; Protected areas,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In fire-prone ecosystems, zero-fire policies have been replaced by active fire management to reduce the risk of wildfires and improve ecological outcomes. The environmental drivers of fire behavior are widely known, but climate change and deforestation are changing their roles, making fires less predictable. Thus, reassessing the main determinants of fire behavior is preeminent to allow for safe and adaptive uses of fire in protected areas (PA). We did this research in collaboration with PA managers during the initial implementation of a pilot Integrated Fire Management (IFM) program in the Brazilian savanna. The program mainly aimed to prevent large wildfires in the late-dry season and included prescribed burns during the rainy, early- and mid-dry seasons to create vegetation patch mosaics with different fire histories. We assessed fire behavior and its environmental drivers during prescribed fires in the mid-dry season (MF) and experimental late-dry season fires (LF) (emulating wildfires). We applied Linear Models to test for differences in fire intensity, heat released, combustion factor and flame height between fire seasons and to check the influence of meteorological and fuel conditions in these parameters. LF had a significantly higher fire intensity (3508 vs. 895 kW m?1), heat released (5537 vs. 3329 kW m?2), combustion factor (90 vs. 51%) and flame height (2.5 vs. 1.9 m) than MF. Relative humidity, air temperature, wind speed and fuel load were the best predictors of fire behavior, corroborating previous research. Air temperature and relative humidity pushed the seasonal differences in fire behavior while wind speed and fuel load showed similar effects across seasons. Our results emphasize the importance of considering primarily environmental variables during fire management planning, especially in the current climate changing world where extreme events and seasonal weather fluctuations are constantly defying our knowledge about fire behavior. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,289,,J.

To inform the conservation of species of conservation concern there is the need to assess whether existing and proposed MPA designs provide protection to these species. For this, information on species spatial distribution and exposure to threats is necessary. However, this information if often lacking, particularly for mobile migratory species, such as marine turtles. To highlight the importance of this information when designing MPAs and for assessments of their effectiveness, we identified high use areas of post-nesting hawksbill turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata) in Brazil as a case study and assessed the effectiveness of Brazilian MPAs to protect important habitat for this group based on exposure to threats. Most (88%) of high use areas were found to be exposed to threats (78% to artisanal fishery and 76.7% to marine traffic), where 88.1% were not protected by MPAs, for which 86% are exposed to threats. This mismatch is driven by a lack of explicit conservation goals and targets for turtles in MPA management plans, limited spatial information on species' distribution and threats, and a mismatch in the scale of conservation initiatives. To inform future assessments and design of MPAs for species of conservation concern we suggest that managers: clearly state and make their goals and targets tangible, consider ecological scales instead of political boundaries, and use adaptative management as new information become available. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,261,,Biol.

However, the supply of these ES is threatened due to ecosystem degradation, which threatens human well-being and livelihoods. This study investigated the link between pressures and the ES provided by marine macroinvertebrates (MMIs) in mangroves and seagrasses. We assessed ecosystem condition (marine protected areas, MPAs), pressures, namely climate change (sea surface temperature and sea level), land-use and land-cover changes, overexploitation (mangrove deforestation and overfishing), and core MMI ES (provisioning, regulation, cultural). Our results revealed a low ratio of MPAs compared to the Aichi Target 11, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive conservation strategy. Sea temperature and level showed an increasing trend, indicating the vulnerability of coastal ecosystems to climate change. The decline in mangrove forest cover highlights the need to mitigate adverse effects of land-use change. The increasing number of artisanal fishery licences suggests increased pressure on MMIs, which can have severe consequences for local communities. MMI food production, particularly shrimp, and recreational fishing increased in the last 2 decades. Regulation services and cultural services related to research and education varied through time due to the limited availability of data. This information was used to develop an exploratory conceptual model illustrating the complex relationships among pressures, condition, MMI ES, and management goals for the sustainable use of marine resources and their connection with food security. Our findings underscore the importance of preserving MMI populations and habitats while addressing knowledge gaps to enhance the resilience of coastal ecosystems. © Inter-Research 2024.",,15-32,,,732,,Mar.

The PA are classified in accordance with the three Large Marine Ecosystems (LME) of the Brazilian coast, also incorporating the divisions provided in the National Coastal Management Plan. The similarity among management strategies in the three LME was analysed by the Morisita-Horn index. The assumptions are as follows: (i) the PA will be aggregated in the coastal environment for the three LME and (ii) differences exist with regard to the similarities within and between the LME. The analysed PA showed an aggregate pattern for shorter distances and a uniform pattern for longer distances. These patterns were significant for the East Coast and the South Platform. The management similarity was greater between the East Coast and the South Platform, suggesting that these two LME use similar strategies to manage natural resources. The coastal environment is more protected than the marine environment. Results indicate that the marine environment has a small number of protected environments. Both environments use more frequently the management model of Sustainable-Use Protected Area, with the participation of several social players in the management area.

As a result, the livelihoods of millions of people who depend directly on marine natural resources are at risk. For this reason, Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are among the tools used in fisheries management. In Brazil, Marine Extractive Reserves (MERs) are an MPA model enabling the direct use of resources. MERs attempt to protect the lifestyle of handicraft fishermen as well as to assure the sustainable use of resources. The Reserves are distributed along the coast and they are part of the Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs) of Brazil. This study assesses the management of 20 Brazilian MERs from the perspective of the managers and comprises environmental, economic, social and institutional aspects. Our working hypothesis was that managers considered that MERs performed poorly and that differences existed between the results for MERs and LMEs. In general, the results of the study indicate that the management of MPAs is unsatisfactory, especially in economic terms. The environmental aspect of management obtained the most strongly positive assessment. Among the three LMEs evaluated, the North Platform reserves had the worst assessment results. The East Coast reserves and the South Platform reserves had equivalent results, but these results were still not adequate. Mechanisms need to be implemented to provide alternative income generation for the beneficiaries. Furthermore, most of the areas assessed have no Management Plan. This lack creates difficulties for local management. Because MERs are public areas granted through concessions for the use of beneficiaries and the co-managing body is a federal entity, the Brazilian State needs to provide further institutional support to these areas to fulfil the objectives for which they were created. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,26-36,,,93,,Ocean Coast.

However, the model transferred to the coastal and marine environment finds conflicts of legal order, given the current Brazilian legislation. The conflict is due to the denial of access to resources in the areas demarcated as a reserve by citizens not designated as ""traditional population"". This access restriction does not find basis in Brazilian law, which can generate conflicts between beneficiaries and ""excluded."" Extractive Reserves are areas where the culture and values of traditional population should be preserved concurrently with the sustainable use of natural resources. But until today, there is no long-term studies that prove empirically whether the resources used are being managed in order to perpetuate themselves, considering their use by communities. Biological and anthropogenic factors must be constantly monitored in order to separate the fluctuations capture of natural order from the ones cause by human beings.

Using the ecological uniqueness approach, we analyzed ?-diversity patterns of ground-dwelling mammal communities recorded through comprehensive camera trap monitoring within eight tropical forests protected areas in Mesoamerica and South America under variable landscape contexts. We aimed to investigate whether the contribution of single sites (LCBD) and single species (SCBD) to overall ?-diversity could be explained by community metrics and environmental variables, and by species metrics and biological traits, respectively. Total ?-diversity was also partitioned into species replacement and richness difference. We related LCBD to species richness, total relative abundance, functional indices, and environmental variables (tree basal area, protected area size, NDVI, and precipitation seasonality), and SCBD to species naďve occupancy, relative abundance, and morphoecological traits via beta regression. Our findings showed that LCBD was primarily explained by variation in species richness, rather than relative abundance and functional metrics. Protected area size and tree basal area were also important in explaining variation in LCBD. SCBD was strongly related to naďve occupancy and relative abundance, but not to biological traits, such as body mass, trophic energy level, activity cycle, and taxonomic category. Local ?-diversity was a result of species replacements and to a lesser extent differences in species richness. Our approach was useful in examining and comparing the ecological uniqueness among different sites, revealing the regional scale current status of mammal diversity. High LCBD values comprised sites embedded within smaller habitat extents, hosting lower tree basal areas, and harboring low species richness. SCBD showed that relatively ubiquitous species that occur at variable abundances across sites contributed most to ?-diversity. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,789,,Sci.

Globally, seamount and cold-water coral habitats and species, which often go along with each other, are considered a priority for developing conservation and sustainable management measures within and beyond national jurisdiction. Seamounts may be good candidates for site-based management such as by means of marine protected areas (MPAs), due to their singularity and isolation. In the north-east Atlantic, so far, there are only two seamounts managed as marine protected areas, both in the waters of the Azores, and several others as closed areas to fisheries by Northeast Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC). This paper describes, using the example of Sedlo Seamount, the development of a framework for the management of activities and interests of a potential offshore marine protected area. The work is based on the scientific results of the OASIS project and on input from various stakeholders, including fishery organizations, government and scientists. It reviews the current state of the site in terms of natural setting, existing uses and potential threats and proposes boundaries and regulations with the overall goal to manage human activities around Sedlo in a way that protects its ecosystem function and biodiversity, and its significance as a rather unexploited example of a seamount within a network of marine protected areas in the NE Atlantic. The resulting proposed management plan is a fundamental prerequisite to the establishment of the Sedlo Seamount as an offshore MPA, contributing to the OSPAR network of MPAs in the north-east Atlantic. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

Passive samplers provide an accurate and inexpensive method for measuring cumulative exposures of different air pollutants. They have been used to collect ozone data in both laboratory and field at different geographical scales. The objective of the present study is to fill the knowledge gap regarding air quality in remote areas of Spain, such as national parks and protected areas. Because there were no systematic data sets on the main air pollutants that could affect these areas, an air quality measurement network was established between 2001 and 2004 on 19 locations inside Spanish national parks and protected areas. The data collected suggest that ozone levels in mountainous areas are high enough to affect sensitive vegetation. Most of the locations registered moderate-to-high ozone levels, with important interannual variability. Altitudinal ozone gradients were observed in most of the parks with complex topography due to the establishment of local circulations that incorporate polluted air masses from polluted airsheds or even long-range transport (i.e., Canary Islands). Different latitude-dependent, yearly cycles were also observed, showing two, one, or no clear peaks depending on the region. These findings extend to the most southerly locations, except in the Canary Islands, where pollution transported from other regions in the upper transport layers probably led to the high concentrations observed. ©2007 with author.

Using a network of plots distributed over ?95,000 km2 in southern Brazil, we first map the distribution of species richness (SR), beta diversity (BD) and phylogenetic diversity (PD) across the extent of remaining forest in the region. We then tested whether areas of taxonomic and phylogenetic uniqueness are either over- or under-protected based on the existing PA network (3% coverage) and at least 10% coverage, and assessed whether protection is distributed equally for each uniqueness area type. Here, areas of taxonomic uniqueness were defined as those with higher contribution than the mean to the total BD, and areas of phylogenetic uniqueness as those with higher or lower PD than expected by chance given their SR, and sites exhibiting spatial congruence or mismatch between PD and SR. We found a high percentage of representation of both areas of uniqueness across the extent of remaining forest. However, our analyses showed that these areas are poorly and unequally captured by the PA network; they are on average less protected than expected based on at least 10% coverage and have high inequality of protection. Our results suggest that both beta diversity and evolutionary history of angiosperm trees are not adequately protected, and indicate relevant areas to extend the current PA network.

The current scenario of undertaking Ayurveda medications and herbs as a potent cure for many diseases is growing phenomenally. In this paper, we have presented a detailed analysis of a Himalayan Herb Selinum vaginatum, which is a good source and a potential treatment for curing many diseases. The potential of this herb is not much explored scientifically. It is found in the regions of Northern Himalayas alongside the states like Himachal Pradesh, Kashmir, Uttarakhand, high altitude regions China mainland (Himalayan region) - Kailash Mountain region, Pakistan, etc. Objectives: The main objective of the paper is to get detailed information about the taxonomical classification of species, traditional uses, pharmacological actions, and chemical composition of Selinum vaginatum. Material and Methods: The review was performed to gain detailed knowledge of Selinum vaginatum. The review was carried out using search engines to investigate tribal uses, pharmacological actions, and pharmacognostic characteristics. The data collected from multiple platforms were used in this research. Result: The roots of the plant have been used traditionally and show pharmacological activities like anti-fungal, anti-convulsion action, seed germination inhibition effects, sedative, analgesic and hypotensive actions, antioxidant activity, anti-epileptic and anti-hysteria effect, etc. The key constituents reported in the plant roots are Selenidin, Angelicin, Oroselol, alpha-pinene, camphene, elemol, limonene, 3, 5-nonadiyne, sesquiterpenoids (valerenic acids), phenol (chlorogenic acid), valeriananoids, essential oils, vaginidin, angelicin, selinidin, orosenol, and selinone. Conclusions: The information documented in this paper will be helpful for medicinal, commercial, and industrial uses. It will help grow information about this Himalayan herb and its unexplored therapeutic potentials can be tested pharmacologically. A lot of information about the tribal uses is also shared in this paper, which will direct the interest of researchers over this plant and test the activities of the essential oil and the components of Selinum vaginatum in vitro and in vivo. The analysis of the extracts from the plant must be well researched for pharmacologically active constituents to find the active constituents responsible for therapeutic benefits.

The mucilage led to intense fish mortalities, particularly affecting species like smelt, anchovy, and picarel, with severe consequences for benthic ecosystems and various marine species. This study aims to analyze the possible long-term effects of the recent mucilage disaster on species diversity and biomass by assessing the current status of teleost fish assemblages in the SoM. The data set is based on bottom trawl surveys carried out at 52 points at ten stations in the SoM throughout 2023. Data presented through biomass and various ecological indices enabled comparative analyses of changes in fish assemblages pre and postmucilage events. During the study, a total of 5066 kg of retained catch in the 4867 km2 scanned area revealed a biomass of 1040.9 kg·km–2, represented by 45 species in the SoM. Commercial species such as Trachurus trachurus, Merlangius merlangus, Merluccius merluccius stood out with the highest biomass in the teleost fish assemblage. Species richness and total teleost biomass tended to decrease by over 20% in the postmucilage period, reflecting the possible destruction of mucilage to fish populations in the SoM. The decreasing trend in biomass was limited to pelagic species. The extent of the impact on pelagic species may be the cumulative effect of ongoing overexploitation and reduced landing size, as well as intense mortality recorded during the mucilage period. The findings underscore the need for sustainable fishing practices and marine protected areas, including compliance with the Marmara Sea Action Plan, for the restoration and conservation of fish assemblages. © 2024, Turkiye Klinikleri.

A few benthic biodiversity studies have been carried out to date, but several coral and algal species still remain to be evaluated in terms of their abundance, vigour and conservation priority. In absence of a comprehensive, reliable dataset, inter-relationships between anthropogenic impacts and climate alterations with the coral reefs cannot be assessed authentically. This paper addresses the coupled themes of biodiversity and reef management in the Andaman Islands by examining the percentage cover of corals and benthic algae from shallow-water ecosystems across the coasts of Havelock, Neil, Ross, Jolly Buoy Islands and Chidiyatapu beach proximal to Port Blair. Four major reef types were observed: coral-dominated, algae-dominated, neutral setting and algae overgrowing dead reefs. Jolly Buoy Island had the highest percentage cover of scleractinian corals and crustose coralline algae. Turf algae were most abundant at the Ross Island, while other macroalgae showed highest abundance at Chidiyatapu. Overall species diversity values for corals and algae were highest at the Jolly Buoy and Chidiyatapu, respectively. Given that corals and algae are critical reef components, management paradigms must consider the abundance and frequency of both these biogenic entities in the seascape. The needs, expectations and objectives of the people dependent on coral reef ecosystems also need to be considered. Long-term monitoring is imperative in understanding the natural typology of reefs and managing the possible algal encroachments. Refined management efforts that include greater thrust on development of marine protected areas and reserves; establishment of connectivity between various coral ecosystems of the region; control of invasive algae; and increasing awareness among the local people as well as tourists will ensure continued support of ecosystem to maintain healthy reefs. Collectively, the results are used to promote some strategies to conserve the Andaman coral reefs and cope with the detrimental anthropogenic and climate changes in these coastal habitats. © 2015, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.",,1801-1814,,6,18,,Environ.

This emphasizes an immediate need for initiating research and actions for alternative management techniques to protect these aquatic systems. One such option that has potential to protect freshwater ecosystem from numerous threats is the creation of freshwater aquatic sanctuary (FAS) within protected area network. Though similar conservation practices are well established in the terrestrial and marine ecosystem, however, the work on freshwater systems has been very slow and negligible. In the present communication we conceptualized the need and approach for developing FAS within the protected area network based on our observations in the water bodies of the selected wildlife sanctuaries in Northern India as well as success stories of some other countries. In this study we assessed the fish diversity in the selected protected areas of Northern India. The assessment indicated that these sanctuaries harbor 28.26-31.13% of freshwater fishes, which are threatened in other areas. Apart from Indian Major Carps, Tor putitora, Chitala chitala, Pangasius pangasius, Clupisoma gerua, Ailia coila, Aorichthys aor, Wallago attu, Rhinomugil corsula, Ompok pabda, Ombok pabo etc. were the important species encountered in the protected waters.

However, the goal of declaring and managing at least 10 % of coastal and marine waters as MPAs has not been achieved in Bangladesh and many other countries. This study aimed at prioritizing the potential areas for MPA delineation in the south-west coastal zone of Bangladesh. The study also examined the socio-economic status, environmental and ecological characteristics of the study areas. Data on socio-economic, environmental, ecological, and management variables were collected through intensive field surveys from August 2023 to December 2023. The data were integrated using a multi-criteria analytical technique. Fishing was identified as the primary occupation for all fishermen surveyed, with secondary occupations including fish selling, marketing, and drying activities. The fishing areas for fishermen from the three survey sites were mainly concentrated in the offshore area. All three areas were identified as biodiversity hotspots, with Kuakata coast showing the highest species diversity, followed by Salimpur and Sandwip coasts. The study revealed that the Kuakata coast has the highest conservation importance, especially for IUCN red-listed species, juvenile fisheries species, and megafauna species. Salimpur coast is important for the conservation of saltmarshes, mangroves, and their dependent communities, while Sandwip is crucial for juvenile fish species conservation. Based on socio-ecological criteria, Kuakata was recommended as the most potential site for MPA delineation, followed by Salimpur and Sandwip. Implementing these recommendations can improve the management and execution of existing MPAs by focusing conservation efforts on areas with the highest biodiversity and ecological importance, ensuring better protection for vulnerable species, and enhancing the sustainability of local fishing communities. This, in turn, will ultimately enhance biodiversity conservation and ecosystem health in the southwest coastal area of Bangladesh. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,77,,Reg. Stud. Mar.

Having a biodiversity rich maritime area of 118,813 km2, Bangladesh is facing the challenges of environmental change and over exploitation. Thus, conservation efforts are urgently needed for the coastal and marine ecosystems of Bangladesh. Taking this into account this study aims at assessing the suitability of the Saint Martin – Teknaf Peninsula of south-east coastal zone of Bangladesh to delineate as MPA considering four protection levels (i.e. no entry - no take zone; entry - no take zone; partial reserve and general reserve zones). Primary data on socio-economic status, biodiversity and habitat condition were collected through a year-long field observation. We used the spatial multiple-criteria analysis technique to determine the suitability of the Saint Martin – Teknaf Peninsula to declare as MPA. We found that local communities are mainly involved with fishing and tourism based activities for their livelihoods. The study also found about 900 species which includes critically endangered, endangered and vulnerable species. Both social and biodiversity data suggest that conservation efforts are urgently required for the Saint Martin – Teknaf Peninsula. Present study identified 2992.29 km2 potential area of the Saint Maritn – Teknaf Peninsula for MPA declaration. Potential no-entry, no-take zone covers an area of 44.37 km2 while entry, no-take; partial reserve and general reserve zones cover 710.92, 1436 and 801 km2 area, respectively.

In addition, we also proposed an integrated management approach for MPA management in Bangladesh. Primary data were collected through stakeholder consultations from the three coastal zones of Bangladesh and secondary data were collected from an extensive literature review. We developed a priority index to select the most important habitats for MPA declaration. Our analysis suggests five potential habitats within the maritime boundary of Bangladesh for MPA declaration.

We aim to uncover the variables driving mangrove biodiversity and produce baseline biodiversity maps for the Sundarbans world heritage site—the Earth's largest contiguous mangrove ecosystem. Location: The Bangladesh Sundarbans, South Asia. Methods: We collected species abundance, environmental and disturbance data from 110 permanent sample plots (PSPs) covering the entire Bangladesh Sundarbans (6,017 km2). We applied generalized additive models to determine the key variables shaping the spatial distributions of mangrove diversity and community composition. Biodiversity maps were constructed using covariate-driven habitat models, and their predictive performances were compared with covariate-free (i.e., direct interpolation) approaches to see whether the inclusion of habitat variables bolster spatial predictions of biodiversity or whether we can rely on direct interpolation approaches when environmental data are not available. Results: Historical forest exploitation, disease, siltation and soil alkalinity were the key stressors causing loss of alpha and gamma diversity in mangrove communities. Both alpha and gamma diversity increased along the downstream-to-upstream and riverbank-to-forest interior gradients. Mangrove communities subjected to intensive past tree harvesting, disease outbreaks and siltation were more homogeneous in species composition (beta diversity). In contrast, heterogeneity in species composition increased along decreasing salinity and downstream-to-upstream gradients. We find that the surviving biodiversity hotspots (comprising many globally endangered tree species) are located outside the established protected area network and hence open to human exploitation. We therefore suggest bringing them immediately under protected area management. Main conclusions: We provide the first habitat-based modelling and mapping of alpha, beta and gamma diversity in threatened mangrove communities. In general, habitat-based models showed better predictive ability than the covariate-free approach. Nevertheless, the small margin of differences between the approaches demonstrates the utility of direct interpolation approaches when environmental data are unavailable. © 2019 The Authors.

Many studies report the role of coral cover and habitat complexity in determining fish distribution on coral reefs but broader environmental factors such as current velocity and productivity are less studied. Southern Indonesia is characterised by upwellings and strong currents, stemming from the tidal cycle and the Indonesian Throughflow. In this study we investigate how current velocity, chlorophyll-a (chl-a), sea surface height and temperature relate to the biomass of carnivorous fish, considering the influence of habitat complexity and coral cover. Data were collected by surveying seven sites around Nusa Penida MPA for a total of 97 h of observation. Serranids and Lutjanids showed higher dependency on coral cover than fish from family Lethrinidae, Carangidae and Scombridae for which current, sea surface height, chl-a, and temperature were more influential predictors. Considering the similar trophic ecology of these species, the different relationship with oceanographic factors is likely related to different body shapes, living, and feeding habits between fish families.

The objective of this study was to investigate how regulating and supporting services are affected by conservation management and differences in elevation. This was achieved by comparing several ecosystem indicators between the protected and unprotected areas. The forests under study were divided into two elevation ranges (1000–1500 and 1500–2000 m above sea level), and 66 sample plots (area 300 m2) were established in each area. Quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the trees were recorded, and soil and litter samples were obtained in all sample plots. Increment cores were also obtained from the main tree species in the area. In addition, regulating services (regulation of CO2, water and soil) and supporting services (nutrient cycling in soil, and above-ground net primary production) were also evaluated. All of the indicators studied in the regulating services section, except annual carbon sequestration by the trees and the soil loss, in the protected were more than in the unprotected area. No significant differences between the two regions were observed regarding annual carbon sequestration and soil regulation indicators. Regarding the supporting services indicators, total nitrogen, assimilable potassium and average trunk volume of the trees were higher in the protected than in the unprotected area; the opposite was true for the total phosphorus index. The results suggest positive effects of conservation management on regulating and supporting services in the protected area of the Arasbaran forests. The findings of the study indicate that conservation management practices have a positive impact on both regulating and supporting services within the protected area of the Arasbaran forests. This suggests that the implementation of conservation measures in this region has resulted in beneficial outcomes for the ecosystem services provided by the forests. The results highlight the importance of protecting and managing forest areas to enhance their ability to regulate CO2, water, and soil, as well as support nutrient cycling and above-ground net primary production. These outcomes highlight the crucial role of conservation efforts in maintaining and enhancing the overall health and functioning of the Arasbaran forests. It indicates that protective management is essential for promoting key ecosystem services. The study also underscores the importance of considering factors such as altitude and habitat conditions when formulating forest management strategies or plans. © 2024",,,,,203,,Ecol.

A case study of the centralised and decentralised MCA in West Lombok is presented, and the process of establishing the MCA and its institutional performance are reviewed. The performance of centralised system is still questioned because this system marginalises the local people that leads to the rise of conflict and eventually weakens the institution of MCA. Therefore, strengthening decentralised system is necessary to increase the sense of stewardship of the local people over the resources, and to shape a new paradigm of the relationship of poor people-environment and conservation-fisheries, so marginalisation of the local people can be avoided and finally a robust institution can be created. Nevertheless, the case of Awig-awig as a type of community-based coral reef management in Gili Indah shows that decentralised system does not assure achievement of more robust institutional performance. This means that the success of decentralisation is not taken for granted, but there is prerequisite to be considered. At the community level, the prerequisite is a creation of better institutional arrangement including increasing equitability among resource users, a better representation system during process of consensus building and a well-defined property right system. Furthermore, the improvement of legal framework in national level is necessary to create more harmonious legal products related to the marine conservation with emphasis on how to recognise and enhance capacity of the local institution, which may belong to the local government or the local people, in the marine conservation. Thus, community-based management or co-management system can be officially recognised and promoted. In addition, the decentralisation of marine conservation also requires the local governments to have adequate capacity building includes the following aspects: administration skill, political savvy, adaptability and expertise skill.

Indonesia also has the highest shark landings globally and nearly all high?value shark species are overexploited and could be considered threatened. This situation is of international concern, especially among conservationists and elasmobranch scientists. Most of the shark catch in Indonesian waters is taken as bycatch of fisheries deploying various types of gear, including longlines, driftnets, handlines and purse?seines. However, sharks are also targeted in several regions of eastern and southern Indonesia, where they are often the main source of livelihood for many artisanal fishers. Shark fishing, whether targeted or bycatch, occurs throughout most of Indonesia's waters, and the large size of the EEZ, which encompasses nearly 6 million km2, is a primary constraint regarding the effective management of shark fisheries. In 2009, 11 fisheries management zones were established through the gazetting of a regulation on regional fisheries, facilitating management by the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries. Here, we discuss how the implementation of a number of regulations gazetted by the Indonesian government to ensure sustainable utilisation of fisheries resources should take into account shark resources. We also examine recent elasmobranch conservation efforts by the government, including the recent designation of whale sharks Rhincodon typus and manta rays Manta alfredi and M. birostris as fully protected species, and a prohibition on exports of products of hammerhead Sphyrna spp. and oceanic whitetip sharks Carcharhinus longimanus. © 2015 NISC (Pty) Ltd.",,249-258,,2,37,,Afr.

EPAs aim to promote the conservation and sustainability of natural resources through decentralization and improving the participation of local governments and communities. Not all EPAs are successful, however. The purpose of this paper is to examine factors affecting the implementation of the EPAs program in Thailand, using the Phetchaburi and Prachuap Kirikhan EPA, in southern Thailand as a case study. Following the governability assessment framework, natural, social, and governing systems associated with the EPA were first described in terms of diversity, complexity, dynamics, and spatial and jurisdictional scale. Next, we examined the extent to which the EPA, as a participatory regulatory tool, corresponded with the natural and social systems it aimed to govern. The analysis reveals that the EPA did not function as effectively as it should be, even though the governing system was well structured to deal with complex coastal ecosystems in the area. The deficiency in the function of the EPA was due largely to poor sectoral coordination, weak financial commitments, and uncoordinated governing interactions. Based on these findings, we suggest that the EPA should be situated in a broader context of land and marine spatial planning and that it needs to be attuned to existing policies in a way that collaboration between agencies and policy integration is possible. © 2015, Satumanatpan and Chuenpagdee.",,Jan-19,,1,14,,Marit.

A concern in entrusting decisions to local governments is that the effectiveness of the conservation instrument can be threatened by interactions among these local governments. We examine this concern with respect to an ecological fiscal transfer mechanism, the ICMS-Ecológico, implemented in Brazil in the early 1990's in order to reduce biodiversity loss. The mechanism enables states to reward municipalities for the creation and management of protected areas. We describe this mechanism, present a conceptual framework aimed at understanding the potential sources and consequences of interactions among local governments on the effectiveness of a decentralized mechanism aimed at promoting the creation of protected areas, and propose an empirical application using a Bayesian spatial Tobit model. Our empirical investigation on the creation of protected areas in the state of Paraná between 2000 and 2010 reveals strategic substitutability in municipalities' conservation decisions.

The Convention on Biological Diversity agreed in 2010 to have 17% of land covered by well-connected PA systems by 2020 (Aichi Target 11). We here globally assess, for all countries, the trends in terrestrial PA connectivity every other year from 2010 to 2018 using the ProtConn indicator, which quantifies how well the PA systems are designed to support connectivity. The percentage of protected connected land (ProtConn) has increased globally from 6.5% in 2010 to 7.7% in 2018. Oceania experienced the largest recent increase in PA connectivity, whereas Asia is the only content with a lower ProtConn in 2018 than in 2010. Globally, the relative increase in the percentage of protected connected land (ProtConn) is nearly twice that of the percentage of land under protection (PA coverage), due to clear improvements in the design of PA systems for connectivity in many regions. The connectivity of the PA networks has become more dependent on the permeability of the unprotected landscape matrix in between PAs and on the coordinated management of adjacent PAs with different designations and of transboundary PA linkages. The relatively slow recent increase in PA connectivity globally (2016–2018) raises doubt as to whether connectivity targets will be met by 2020, and suggests that considerable further action is required to promote better-connected PA systems globally, including the expansion of the PA systems to cover key areas for connectivity in many countries and regions. © 2019 The Authors",,,,,238,,Biol.

In the coastal waters of southern Brazil, bycatch in gillnet fisheries affects threatened species that use this region as a breeding and feeding area. The identification of hotspot areas of bycatch is necessary to design and prioritize efficient spatial–temporal closures that protect the largest possible number of threatened species of marine megafauna. In this context, the use of a multispecies approach is an important step towards planning effective fisheries management measures. This study has two main objectives: (1) to identify hotspot areas of bycatch in gillnet fisheries for the most threatened marine megafauna species on the continental shelf of Rio Grande do Sul (RS); (2) compare single species and multispecies mapping methods for the identification of these areas. To meet these objectives, data collected by onboard observers during fishing trips in the coastal commercial RS-based gillnet fleet between 2013 and 2015 and between 2018 and 2020 were analyzed. For the identification of the areas, hierarchical Bayesian spatio-temporal models were implemented, using monospecific and multispecific approaches and a weighting system for the conservation status of the species. Both approaches provide similar results, identifying three bycatch hotspots according to the time frame analysed. Based on our findings, we propose these areas as the top candidates for fishing exclusion zones, based on their biodiversity value. The suggested spatio-temporal closures would benefit several endangered species while also contributing to the recovery of fish populations. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V. 2024.",,281-303,,1,33,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,ALBARDAO; Area-based conservation measure; biodiversity; Brazil; bycatch; Bycatch; coastal water; conservation status; continental shelf; endangered species; Fishing exclusion zones; fishing industry; MANAGEMENT; marine environment; MODELS; mortality; Multispecies models; PATTERNS; PONTOPORIA-BLAINVILLEI; PROTECTED AREAS; Rio Grande do Sul; RS; SHELF; SOUTH; Threatened species; ZONE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The St. Lawrence estuary, in Eastern Canada, hosted one of these ERI conducted from 2007 to 2012. The estuary is a high biological production area that supports a wide variety of human pressures and activities that might impact its integrity and sustainable use. Based on planning workshops that involved scientists as well as the main relevant managers of the region, two common priority issues were identified for the implementation of this ERI : (i) forage species responsible for the presence of blue whales in the lower St. Lawrence Estuary and (ii) characterization of the summer habitat of beluga whales in the St. Lawrence. The general objective of the St. Lawrence estuary ERI was to develop an operational framework for the coordination and integration of existing and new projects as well as ongoing monitoring programs to address several issues related to the two identified priorities and to provide integrated scientific information and advice (application of the ecosystem approach). The two themes led to an integrated scientific assessment that provided ecosystem-based advices in support of several management issues and conservation objectives at the scale of the ecosystem. Very valuable results were obtained for the Saguenay-St. Lawrence Marine Park, the implementation of recovery plans for species at risk (beluga and blue whale), and the anticipated establishment of a new marine protected area in the region.

The model is based on the Atlantis framework, which includes a deterministic, spatially resolved three-dimensional biophysical model that tracks nutrient flows through key biological groups, as well as extraction by a range of fisheries. The model results support previous empirical studies in finding clear benefits of reserves to top predators such as sharks and rays throughout the region, while also showing how many of their major prey groups (including commercial species) experienced significant declines. It was found that the net impact of marine reserves was dependent on the pre-existing levels of disturbance (i.e. fishing pressure), and to a lesser extent on the size of the marine reserves. The high fishing scenario resulted in a strongly perturbed system, where the introduction of marine reserves had clear and mostly direct effects on biomass and functional biodiversity. However, under the lower fishing pressure scenario, the introduction of marine reserves caused both direct positive effects, mainly on shark groups, and indirect negative effects through trophic cascades. Our study illustrates the need to carefully align the design and implementation of marine reserves with policy and management objectives.

In the region, 55 species of the family Phasianidae can be found in all available land habitats from lowland plains up to high-elevation mountainous areas. As ground-dwelling birds, these species are sensitive to habitat disturbance and hunting pressure, making them ideal to evaluate the status of remaining Southeast Asian forest habitats. The aims of this work are, therefore, to define for each Phasianidae species: (1) the extent of forest cover, suitable habitat and large forest patches currently available in the region and their decline over the years between 2000 and 2018 (six estimated generations) and (2) assess the threats using a Bayesian Belief Network approach combining data on forest loss hotspots and hunting pressure. Moreover, we defined the spatial distribution of Phasianidae diversity hotspots and relative threats in the region. The results show that over the 18-year study period, the forest cover, suitable habitat and Phasianidae diversity in Southeast Asia declined overall. The remaining forest habitats currently have low species diversity and face medium to high threat levels from habitat loss and hunting pressure. Population monitoring and higher protection levels both inside and outside protected areas are essential for the species’ long term survival. We recommend using Phasianidae as indicator species to monitor the overall habitat conservation status in Southeast Asia. © 2021 The Authors",,,,,29,,Glob. Ecol.

In this study, the ex situ restoration of Gongolaria barbata (=Treptacantha barbata), a Mediterranean subtidal habitat-forming species of brown seaweed, was for the first time implemented in a marine protected area in the Adriatic Sea. Two restoration efforts were performed in 2019. The first was started in winter, after a marine heatwave that triggered early fertility, and the second in spring, when the species usually reproduces. This study aimed to evaluate: (i) the disruptive effects of a thermal anomaly on the reproductive biology and performance in culture of G. barbata; and (ii) the impact of the grazing pressure on juveniles after the outplanting. The first cultivation was more productive than the second, in terms of zygote release and germling growth. To mitigate the low efficiency of the second culture and to avoid prolonged highly demanding maintenance in the mesocosms, the cultivation period was extended outdoors using a structure suspended in the water column. The modular frames conceived for outplanting G. barbata proved to be effective because of their easy operability and low cost. Controlling for herbivorous fish had significant positive effects on both juvenile survival and growth.

Discussions between the engineering consultant in charge of the environmental study and academics from the University of Brest carrying out research on ecological restoration led to the launch of the design of an ecological engineering experiment (heath litter transfers and lawn mowing). During the REVER 2 seminar in Brest in 2010, a visit to the landfill site was carried out just before the ecological operations to benefit from the expertise of the participating researchers and practitioners. A partnership between the National Museum of Natural History (MNHN) and the University of Brest was then initiated to set up ecological monitoring of this operation. This will be subsequently taken over by the Regional Natural Park of Armorica, manager of the Natura 2000 site – on which the old landfill is located – and the Ouessant Center for the Study of the Environment. The vegetation dynamics show strong variations in space and time. If the results of the first years were encouraging with the appearance of target species of heath (gorse and heather), a halt in dynamics has been observed in recent years, probably linked to disturbances (storms, grazing by a herd of goats). The question of a new ecological engineering intervention is thus raised on this site even if the slowness of the ecological process is rather a good sign in this type of naturally constrained environment. These results, put into perspective with those of other restoration operations carried out in Brittany, confirm the possible existence of particular vegetation dynamics on cliff-top sites disturbed by old infrastructures: the trajectories of successions are then more random than on sites only degraded by frequentation. © Publications scientifiques du Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle, Paris.",,309-319,,,2021,,Naturae.,Quelles trajectoires de réhabilitation pour la décharge de l’Île d’Ouessant (29)?

Economic development has led to negative impacts on the environment and the health of populations. Several methods have been developed to limit the concentrations and a load of effluents in the natural environment. Lakes, reservoirs and closed bays are particularly sensitive to contaminant inputs. Their hydrodynamics promote sedimentation and lead to slow mixing of the effluent in the medium. In this context, the present study was concerned with the environmental objectives of discharges (EOD) of the Protuil manufacturing (metal production) in a salted and protected area of the Fetzara Lake. This method permits the calculation of concentrations and loads of contaminants potentially discharged into an aquatic environment without the compromise of water quality. The calculation of EOD for heavy metals (Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb and Zn) has shown a significant overcoming of these toxic contaminants threatening the ecosystem integrity and/ or the environment. © 2017 Desalination Publications.

These taxa can donate advantageous traits to counter biotic as well as abiotic stress and improve thequality of crops. This study aims to provide as many details as possible on distribution patterns and centers of diversity in order to identify and establish modern protected areas in Iran. In total, 539 species of CWR, from 258 genera and 75 plant families have been studied. Using prioritization criteria (gene pool level, range of distribution, and economic value) 17 families, 35 genera, and 94 species of CWR have been identified in Iran. The highest diversity was found in the central Alborz Mountains, the eastern Alborz, and the northern sections of the Zagros Mountains. Several geographic zones can be classified as national genetic reserves. Iranian CWR were distributed in nine classes, ranging in elevation from sea level to more than 4,000 m. Species with a high conservation value include Rosa pimpinellifolia, Rosa webbiana, Pyrus turcomanica, Crataegus sanguinea, Vicia pannonica, Vicia grandiflora, Lathyrus pseudo-cicera, Lactuca wilhelmsiana, Cornus mas, and, Cornus sanguinea. The main achievement of this study has been to identify the distribution patterns and priorities for the conservation of these valuable taxa for the first time. These prominent taxa of CWR have the potential not only to improve food and economic security at a national level but can also contribute to global food security.

The 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) explicitly call for the conservation of terrestrial, freshwater, and marine ecosystems. Accurate ecosystem distribution maps are required to assess representation of ecosystems in protected areas, but standardized, high spatial resolution, and globally comprehensive ecosystem maps have heretofore been lacking. While macroscale global ecoregions maps have been used in global conservation priority setting exercises, they do not identify distinct localized ecosystems at the occurrence (patch) level, and instead describe large ecologically meaningful areas within which additional conservation planning and management are necessary. We describe a new set of maps of globally consistent climate regions and ecosystems at a much finer spatial resolution (250 m) than existing ecological regionalizations. We then describe a global gap analysis of the representation of these ecosystems in protected areas. The new map of terrestrial World Ecosystems was derived from the objective development and integration of 1) global temperature domains, 2) global moisture domains, 3) global landforms, and 4) 2015 global vegetation and land use. These new terrestrial World Ecosystems do not include either freshwater or marine ecosystems, but analog products for the freshwater and marine domains are in development. A total of 431 World Ecosystems were identified, and of these a total of 278 units were natural or semi-natural vegetation/environment combinations, including different kinds of forestlands, shrublands, grasslands, bare areas, and ice/snow regions. The remaining classes were different kinds of croplands and settlements. Of the 278 natural and semi-natural classes, 9 were not represented in global protected areas with a strict biodiversity conservation management objective (IUCN management categories I-IV), and an additional 206 were less than 8.5% protected (half way to the 17% Aichi Target 11 goal). Forty four classes were between 8.5% and 17% protected (more than half way towards the Aichi 17% target), and only 19 classes exceeded the 17% Aichi target. However, when all protected areas (IUCN management categories I-VI plus protected areas with no IUCN designation) were included in a separate global gap analysis, representation of ecosystems increases substantially, with a third of the ecosystems exceeding the 17% Aichi target, and another third between 8.5% and 17%. The overall protection (representation) of global ecosystems in protected areas is considerably less when assessed using only strictly conserved protected areas, and more if all protected areas are included in the analysis. Protected area effectiveness should be included in further evaluations of global ecosystem protection. The ecosystems with the highest representation in protected areas were often bare or sparsely vegetated and found in inhospitable environments (e.g. cold mountains, deserts), and the eight most protected ecosystems were all snow and ice ecosystems. In addition to the global gap analysis of World Ecosystems in protected areas, we report on the representation results for the ecosystems in each biogeographic realm (Neotropical, Nearctic, Afrotropical, Palearctic, Indomalayan, Australasian, and Oceania). © 2019",,,,,21,,Glob.

Building on that work, this paper describes an objectively derived and globally comprehensive set of 37 distinct volumetric region units, called ecological marine units (EMUs). They are constructed on a regularly spaced ocean point-mesh grid, from sea surface to seafloor, and attributed with data from the 2013 World Ocean Atlas version 2. The point attribute data are the means of the decadal averages from a 57-year climatology of six physical and chemical environment parameters (temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, nitrate, phosphate, and silicate). The database includes over 52 million points that depict the global ocean in x, y, and z dimensions. The point data were statistically clustered to define the 37 EMUs, which represent physically and chemically distinct water volumes based on spatial variation in the six marine environmental characteristics used. The aspatial clustering to produce the 37 EMUs did not include point location or depth as a determinant, yet strong geographic and vertical separation was observed. Twenty-two of the 37 EMUs are globally or regionally extensive, and account for 99% of the ocean volume, while the remaining 15 are smaller and shallower, and occur around coastal features. We assessed the vertical distribution of EMUs in the water column and placed them into classical depth zones representing epipelagic (0 m to 200 m), mesopelagic (200 m to 1,000 m), bathypelagic (1,000 m to 4,000 m) and abyssopelagic (>4,000 m) layers. The mapping and characterization of the EMUs represent a new spatial framework for organizing and understanding the physical, chemical, and ultimately biological properties and processes of oceanic water bodies. The EMUs are an initial objective partitioning of the ocean using long-term historical average data, and could be extended in the future by adding new classification variables and by introducing functionality to develop time-specific EMU distribution maps. The EMUs are an open-access resource, and as both a standardized geographic framework and a baseline physicochemical characterization of the oceanic environment, they are intended to be useful for disturbance assessments, ecosystem accounting exercises, conservation priority setting, and marine protected area network design, along with other research and management applications. © 2017 by The Oceanography Society.

Particular issues include the overexploitation of seahorses in target and bycatch fisheries and their utilization for traditional Chinese medicines. Seahorses are also thought to be highly vulnerable to habitat loss and deterioration throughout their circumglobal range in temperate and tropical shallow seas. A suite of unusual biological characteristics, including male pregnancy, has not only stimulated research attention but also contributed to the seahorses' apparently vulnerable nature. Key areas of advancement in recent years, as reviewed here, include the application of genetic tools to confirm the monogamous behaviour of many species both within and between breeding events, to elucidate their challenging taxonomy, to gain insight into their evolution, biogeography and origins, and to identify which species are being traded internationally. Efforts to conserve seahorses have included both 'top-down' and 'bottom-up' approaches, which together have highlighted the need for international regulation of seahorse exploitation and demonstrated that seahorses can stimulate local and regional action in protecting not only seahorses themselves but also a range of threatened habitats in which they live. Updating and extending the global assessment of individual seahorse species on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species is urgently needed (currently only eight species have been fully assessed), as are a renewed survey of the global seahorse trade and further studies to assess how best to protect seahorses within marine reserves. © 2010 The Author(s).",,443-458,,4,34,,Prog.

Many marine vertebrates are known to associate with oceanographic fronts - physical interfaces at the transition between water masses - for foraging and migration, making them important candidate sites for conservation. Here, we review associations between marine vertebrates and fronts and how they vary with scale, regional oceanography and foraging ecology. Accessibility, spatiotemporal predictability and relative productivity of front-associated foraging habitats are key aspects of their ecological importance. Predictable mesoscale (10s-100s km) regions of persistent frontal activity ('frontal zones') are particularly significant. Frontal zones are hotspots of overlap between critical habitat and spatially explicit anthropogenic threats, such as the concentration of fisheries activity. As such, they represent tractable conservation units, in which to target measures for threat mitigation. Front mapping via Earth observation (EO) remote sensing facilitates identification and monitoring of these hotspots of vulnerability. Seasonal or climatological products can locate biophysical hotspots, while near-real-time front mapping augments the suite of tools supporting spatially dynamic ocean management. Synthesis and applications. Frontal zones are ecologically important for mobile marine vertebrates. We surmise that relative accessibility, predictability and productivity are key biophysical characteristics of ecologically significant frontal zones in contrasting oceanographic regions. Persistent frontal zones are potential priority conservation areas for multiple marine vertebrate taxa and are easily identifiable through front mapping via EO remote sensing. These insights are useful for marine spatial planning and marine biodiversity conservation, both within Exclusive Economic Zones and in the open oceans.

The patch mosaic model, which defines the seascape as a collection of interacting habitat types, is increasingly adopted to prioritise protected areas and design ecological restoration schemes, hence helping to preserve seagrass meadows and the associated fish assemblages. Despite that, there are few studies investigating the relative contribution of environmental characteristics measured at different spatial scales in determining the distribution of seagrass fish. This study collects fish and environmental observations taken at both site and seascape scales in seagrass meadows in the Venice lagoon (Adriatic Sea, Italy). By means of generalised linear models, it aims to disentangle the relative influence of local water quality and habitat characteristics from that of habitat mosaic properties, investigating the response of whole fish assemblage descriptors, feeding guilds and dominant species. While confirming the primary importance of local habitat quality, the study highlights that also seagrass habitat structure at the seascape scale is relevant for seagrass fish assemblages, influencing total biomass, biomass of macrobenthivorous and hyperbenthivorous/piscivorous species and seagrass specialists such as syngnathids. Conservation of seagrass fish assemblages can therefore be promoted in Mediterranean coastal lagoons by preserving or restoring some features of the habitat mosaic, namely the extension of seagrass patches and their shape complexity, in addition to local water quality and seagrass cover. © 2018, Coastal and Estuarine Research Federation.",,2410-2425,,8,41,,Estuar.

Based on REA, an index was developed to evaluate the quality of the vegetation called the Biotic Integrity Index (BII). The measurement and accuracy of this index show how integral is the forest ecosystem at moment of analysis. The basis for efficiency in the application of BII is the correct choice of biotic integrity indicators or the variables to be measured. The present study was based from an index previously proposed for a Seasonal Semideciduous Forest (SSF), and aimed to adapt the BII for use in an area of Dense Ombrophilous Forest (DOF) in the State of Săo Paulo as well as to test its efficiency in diagnosing the integrity of fragments of a Tropical Rain Forest (TRF) inserted in a rural matrix.

The adapted BII was applied in a TRF area of 70 hectares. To do so, 20 plots of 10x10m were used, within the sampling area.

The area showed regular integrity as a whole, which was expected due to its size, agricultural surrounding and history of disturbances. The BII showed to be adapted and efficient to analyze the biotic integrity of the DOF, as it was able to show the difference of integrity between different patches of TRF. The least efficient indicators were: “litter cover” and “exotic woody species”, and the most efficient were: “Euterpe edulis”, “epiphytes”, “gaps” and “vines”. © 2020, Universidade Federal de Santa Maria.

One way to do this is to assess the level of ecosystem services delivered by these projects and to compare them with their costs. The challenge is to derive a common unit of measurement for ecosystem services in order to compare projects which are carried out in different institutional contexts having different goals (application of environmental laws, management of natural reserves, etc.). This paper assesses the use of habitat equivalency analysis (HEA) as a tool to evaluate ecosystem services provided by restoration projects developed in different institutional contexts. This tool was initially developed to quantify the level of ecosystem services required to compensate for non-market impacts coming from accidental pollution in the US. In this paper, HEA is used to assess the cost effectiveness of several restoration projects in relation to different environmental policies, using case studies based in France. Four case studies were used: the creation of a market for wetlands, public acceptance of a port development project, the rehabilitation of marshes to mitigate nitrate loading to the sea, and the restoration of streams in a protected area. Our main conclusion is that HEA can provide a simple tool to clarify the objectives of restoration projects, to compare the cost and effectiveness of these projects, and to carry out trade-offs, without requiring significant amounts of human or technical resources. © 2015, Springer Science+Business Media New York.",,109-122,,1,57,,Environ.

In this context, Ecosystem Service Assessments (ESA) are carried out at various French sites including the Bay of Marseille (Provence, France). First, we applied the TRIAGE methodology: a strategic assessment of the issues with experts of the area (local MPA managers and scientists). TRIAGE raises two main concerns: (i) the intensification of recreational uses (by both residents and visitors), and (ii) the conservation of Posidonia oceanica (Linnaeus) Delile, 1813 seagrass meadows. In order to address both issues, we selected two adapted methodologies based on the strategic assessment: (i) a study oriented toward understanding the demand for ecosystem services (focused on recreational activities), and (ii) a study of the capacity of P. oceanica meadows to deliver ecosystem services using state-and-transition modeling. The objective of this work is to present the ESA process, from the strategic assessment to the analysis results. We focus on the study of the capacity of P. oceanica seagrass meadows to provide ecosystem services. State and transition models consist in defining alternative states of the habitat based on ecological indicators, identifying the bundle of services associated with each state and identifying transition vectors capable of explaining the shifts between each state.

They have a specified object of protection, for example marine mammals, or they aim at tackling environmental threats from a particular source, like shipping or fisheries. There are basically two concepts of area protection, including the segregation approach, and integration approach. Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) can help to ensure compensation and replacement for interference in the natural environment. Marine spatial plans reflect the state of knowledge at the time of their adoption and therefore tend to perpetuate errors. The Strategic Action Plan for the Environmental Protection and Rehabilitation of the Black Sea of 2009 lists Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM), the Ecosystem Approach and Integrated River Basin Management (IRBM).

In this region, the productivity and connectivity of benthic habitats such as mangroves, seagrass and coral reefs is essential for many species targeted by fisheries. A minority of the 39 MMAs covering over 4000km2 serve any detectable management or conservation function due to deficiencies in the design, objectives, compliance or enforcement. Fifty percent of the area within MMA boundaries had no-take regulations in the U.S. Virgin Islands, while Puerto Rico only had 3%. Six case studies are compared and contrasted to better understand the potential of these MMAs for fisheries management. Signs of success were associated with including sufficient areas of essential fish habitat (nursery, spawning and migration corridors), year-round no-take regulations, enforcement and isolation. These criteria have been identified as important in the conservation of marine resources, but little has been done to modify the way MMAs are designated and implemented in the region.

This information was acquired during two research cruises with RV Puerto Deseado (Argentina) during 2016 and 2017. Marine animal forests were detected in the study area: coral gardens, mainly composed of alcyonaceans, were detected in the south and west of Burdwood Bank (MPA Namuncurá II) and neighbouring areas, whereas pennatulacean aggregations were detected in the north-west of the plateau. The three-dimensional structures of live but also dead corals provide substrate and refuge to many associated species. Benthic communities dominated by sponges were also recorded between 200 and 300 m in depth. Six sites that meet the characteristics of vulnerable marine ecosystems (VMEs) are reported. Conservation strategies applied to scarcely known austral Argentinean waters led to the establishment of a pioneer MPA (Namuncurá I). Following the management plan that aimed to establish the biodiversity of Namuncurá I and neighbouring areas, the area of protection has now been enlarged to include the southern slope of the bank (currently Namuncurá II), where marine animal forests were detected, at depths below 200 m.

The Irish Sea is a busy waterway under the jurisdiction of six entities (Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland, the Isle of Man, Scotland, England, and Wales). Within this body of water there are almost 200 conservation designations across 111 MPA sites, with many sites having multiple designations (national, EU, and international). Data is lacking on the effectiveness of these protected areas in reaching their conservation objectives due to sites being inadequately monitored. The race to meet the 10% marine protected area target set by the Conservation on Biological Diversity, however, may be compromising effective planning. Do multiple designations ensure better protection of the marine environment, or is the Irish Sea home to paper parks, offering little protection? Metadata compiled from the World Database on Protected Areas and conservation reports from MPA managers were used to investigate this question. The results show a positive correlation between the number of designations of a site and the existence of a publicly available management plan. The presence of a management plan was also linked to whether or not site assessments were conducted by the relevant authorities, and sites having multiple designations was weakly correlated with favourable assessment outcomes. The results of this study highlight the need to better understand the requirements of national, regional and international-level conservation designations and how they interact with each other. © 2020 The Author(s).

Yet, equity tends to be overlooked in protected area assessments. Three marine protected areas (MPAs) in Great Britain, Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland were selected to assess equitable governance and management in the Irish Sea. This is one of the first studies to assess equity across multiple stakeholder groups in MPAs. The Site-level Assessment for Governance and Equity (SAGE) toolkit, developed by the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) to address the gap in equity assessments, was used to evaluate equitable governance and management in these MPAs. Based on the three dimensions of equity (recognition, distribution, and procedure), SAGE contains Likert-scale questions to assess good governance by evaluating how different stakeholder groups perceive their protected area's management and how included they feel in decision-making. Quantitative data from SAGE is complemented by qualitative data from semi-structured interviews with stakeholders to understand the impact MPA management has on local communities and MPA users. The results of this study reveal a lack of communication between MPA authorities and local stakeholders.

In response, governments have pledged enhanced protected-area coverage, which requires scarce biological data to identify conservation priorities. To assist this effort, we mapped conservation priorities in Kenya based on maximizing alpha (species richness) and beta diversity (species turnover) of plant communities while minimizing economic costs. We used plant-cover percentages from vegetation surveys of over 2000 plots to build separate models for each type of diversity. Opportunity and management costs were based on literature data and interviews with conservation organizations. Species richness was predicted to be highest in a belt from Lake Turkana through Mount Kenya and in a belt parallel to the coast, and species turnover was predicted to be highest in western Kenya and along the coast. Our results suggest the expanding reserve network should focus on the coast and northeastern provinces of Kenya, where new biological surveys would also fill biological data gaps.

We used an ocean circulation model and regional coral reef data to simulate eight spawning events from 2008-2011, applying a maximum 30-day pelagic larval duration and 20% mortality rate. Coral larval dispersal patterns were analyzed between coral reefs across jurisdictional marine zones to identify spatial relationships between larval sources and destinations within countries and territories across the region. We applied our results in Marxan, a conservation planning software tool, to identify a regional coral reef MPA network design that meets conservation goals, minimizes underlying threats, and maintains coral reef connectivity. Our results suggest that approximately 77% of coral reefs identified as having a high regional connectivity value are not included in the existing MPA network. This research is unique because we quantify and report coral larval connectivity data by marine ecoregions and Exclusive Economic Zones (EZZ) and use this information to identify gaps in the current Caribbean-wide MPA network by integrating asymmetric connectivity information in Marxan to design a regional MPA network that includes important reef network connections. The identification of important reef connectivity metrics guides the selection of priority conservation areas and supports resilience at the whole system level into the future. © 2015 Schill et al.

Because many canyons are fished, there is an increasing emphasis on including them in conservation areas on continental margins. Here we report on sponge diversity and bottom cover in three canyons of South-eastern Australia, test the performance of biological and abiotic surrogates, and evaluate how biological data from detailed seabed surveys can be used in conservation planning in these habitats. The biological data on sponge assemblage structure and species richness were obtained from 576 seafloor images taken between 148 and 472 m depth, yielding 65 morphospecies. Seafloor characteristics were similar within and between canyons, being almost exclusively composed of sediments with very few rocky substrates of higher relief. This environmental homogeneity did not, however, translate into biological uniformity of the megabenthos, and environmental factors were consequently poor predictors of biological features. By contrast, total bottom cover of sponges was highly correlated with species richness and served as a good proxy for species-level data in this situation. Design strategies that employ information on cover or richness of sponges provided a large dividend in conservation effort by dramatically reducing the number of spatial units required to achieve a specified conservation target of 50-90% of species to be included in reserves. This demonstrates that image-derived data are useful for the design of reserves in the deep sea, particularly where extractive sampling is not warranted. Using biological data on the sponge megabenthos to identify conservation units can also minimise socio-economic costs to fisheries because of a smaller geographic and bathymetric ambit of conservation areas. © 2009 Blackwell Verlag GmbH.",,200-221,,1,31,,Mar.

However, minimal research has been completed on visitor expectations of contact with staff in national parks and protected areas. Staff can play an important role in delivering information and in interpreting significant natural and heritage attributes. This research aims to address this gap by examining visitors' expectations regarding staff contact at one protected site, Cape Byron State Conservation Area (CBSCA) in New South Wales, Australia. A mixed method approach including interviews with staff and a survey of park visitors was implemented to achieve the research aim. Results indicate that visitors have a diverse range of expectations of park staff regarding when, where, and how staff are expected to provide services and information. Peak-season visitors were more likely to want information about European heritage and the lighthouse than were off-season visitors. Visitors over 25 years of age were significantly more likely to expect information about wildlife, native plants and vegetation, the marine environment, whales and whale watching, Indigenous heritage, European heritage, and recreation opportunities within CBSCA than visitors under 25. Visitors between 36 and 45 years of age were the most likely to participate in activities involving staff. Overall, visitors were no more likely to participate in activities involving staff than in self-directed activities.

Global stressors include climate change and ocean acidification, while local stressors include overfishing and eutrophication. Some stressors stem from land-based activities, like intensive agriculture or sewage production, while others are sea-based, like fishing or diving. Processes that aim to tackle coral degradation are transpiring on different levels. These include the UNDP's Sustainable Development Goal 14, and the Coral Triangle Initiative, which foresees the installation of marine protected areas and conservation planning. This paper uses Evolutionary Governance Theory (EGT) to understand the current processes of changes in governance influencing coral reef health. EGT sees the change of governance as an evolutionary process. It emphasises that discourses play a crucial role in understanding governance evolution. Power, in particular power-knowledge in the Foucaultian sense, plays a crucial role as a driving factor. Governance does not change in a vacuum, but according to EGT is shaped by path, inter- and goal dependencies. Of late, the role of materiality - ecological and technological conditions - has been stressed as an important driver of governance change. The paper considers the main threats to corals identified in the literature and analyses how those factors mentioned by EGT help us to understand the observed governance changes. The case of coral reefs was chosen as it represents an example of extremely diverse processes of institutional changes. Therefore, it is well suited to learn if EGT helps in understanding governance changes observed in the marine sector. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,112,,Mar.

Results and Conclusions As the panel of mAbs included antibodies with hemagglutination inhibition (HI) and virus neutralizing activities, this allowed identification and characterization of potentially important antigenic and neutralizing epitopes of the A/California/04/2009 HA and comparison of those epitopes with the HAs of other influenza viruses including seasonal H1N1 viruses as well as the A/South Carolina/1918 and A/New Jersey/1976 H1N1 viruses. Three mAbs with the highest HI and neutralizing titers were able to provide passive protection against virus challenge. Two other mAbs without HI or neutralizing activities were able to provide partial protection against challenge. HA epitopes recognized by the strongest neutralizing mAbs in the panel were identified by isolation and selection of virus escape mutants in the presence of individual mAbs. Cloned viruses resistant to HI and antibody neutralization were sequenced to identify mutations, and two unique mutations (D127E and G155E) were identified, both near the antigenic site Sa. Using human post-vaccination sera, however, there were no differences in HI titer between A/California/04/2009 and either escape mutant, suggesting that these single mutations were not sufficient to abrogate a protective antibody response to the vaccine.",,480-490,,3,7,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000318033100036,,,,,,,ANTIBODY-RESPONSES; ANTIGENIC STRUCTURE; ENHANCEMENT; Hemagglutinin; HUMANS; monoclonal antibody; protective epitopes; PSEUDOTYPES; SERUM; VIRUS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In 2014, the first Integrated Fire Management (IFM) programme was launched in three protected areas (PAs). The IFM programme considers local practices, ecological information, management options and aims to create landscape mosaics of different fire histories to conserve biodiversity, reduce the prevalence of late-dry season (LDS) wildfires, protect fire-sensitive vegetation and reduce conflicts between PA managers and local communities. The first 3 years of imposed fire management regimes led to 40%–57% reduction in LDS fires, improved dialogue between researchers, managers and local communities, generating fire management learning communities. Synthesis and applications. This Integrated Fire Management programme represents a major advance in Cerrado management and conservation, by actively managing fires and decreasing the proportion of areas burnt by late-dry season wildfires.

Essential fish habitats (EFHs) are identified and the information is incorporated into decision making tools to design a network of coastal Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) at an island scale. The Azores are the most isolated archipelago in the North-Atlantic, characterized by complex geologic settings, a variety of marine habitats, diversity of marine life, scarcity of shallow waters and its remoteness. As a result the islands are of great nature conservation and marine biological interest. In the study area of Faial and Pico, two islands of the central group, different zones for environmental protection according to national/regional, Natura 2000 and OSPAR regulations were designated during the last two decades. Recently the Faial-Pico Channel was declared as Nature Park. MPAs gain importance as fisheries management tool and for the conservation of biodiversity. Ideally, core populations of the target species are protected in the boundaries of a MPA and it serves as refuge. Still, practical effort to design and manage marine reserves based on a multi-species approach is scarce. In order to support and refine the existing zoning schemes and to define new coastal MPAs different datasets are brought together in this study: 1) geomorphologic data, including depth, bottom type, slope and distance to e.g. nearest rock. The information is extracted from habitat maps derived by seafloor mapping with multibeam; 2) oceanographic data, based on average literature data for chlorophyll a, sea surface temperature, currents and swell; and 3) biological data: predicted fish abundances based on visual census from over ten years and patterns of spatial behavior obtained by passive and active acoustic underwater telemetry for important coastal commercial species. All information is visualized as layers in ArcGIS and for the first time GIS modelling of all available data combined in one approach is done. The aim is to develop comprehensive and clear maps that illustrate species distribution related to (a)biotic factors and are comprehendible for the public and policy makers. Areas fundamental for the long-term survival of fishes (i.e. spawning grounds) and thus for sustainable fishery are identified (EFH). First results are presented. In the next step decision making tools (software like MARXAN) will be applied to consider animal behaviour, environmental data and the needs of different stakeholders in one approach for the design of a MPA network in the Azores. Furthermore, the possibility of using advanced Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) technology to enhance acoustic telemetry and the study of marine animals is investigated: for a prolonged time certain electronic tags of animals are able to register and store data like (animal/water) temperature, depth and any biological information measurable via suitable, integrated sensors. Special equipped AUVs are a potential tool to download those data; so far only feasible if the tag can be retrieved. First tests for target tracking and exclusion of interference between AUV and telemetry equipment are promising (GREX project). Making this technology available in the future would give a unique opportunity to gain important information about spatial behavior of marine animals even when they are out of our range. Understanding the behavior and spatial use of endangered species will help us finding the best solution for their protection. ©2009 IEEE.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: OCEANS IEEE Bremen: Balancing Technol.

The systematic conservation planning software ""Marxan"" was used to analyse the effect of different conservation objectives and targets on the design of a network of marine protected areas around two islands of the Azores archipelago, Northeast Atlantic. The analyses integrated spatial patterns of the abundance and reproductive potential of multispecies, the vulnerability of fish to fishing, habitat type, algae biotopes, and socio-economic costs and benefits (including fishing effort and recreational activities). Three scenarios focused on fisheries-related objectives (""fisheries scenarios"", FSs) and three on multiple-use and biodiversity conservation objectives (""biodiversity scenarios"", BSs), respectively. Three different protection targets were compared for each set, the existing, minimum, and maximum levels of protection, whereas conservation features were weighted according to their biologically/ecologically functioning. Results provided contrasting solutions for site selection and identified potential gaps in the existing design. The influence of the conservation objective on site selection was most evident when minimum target levels were applied. Otherwise, solutions for FSs and BSs were very similar and mostly shaped by the protection level. More important, BSs that considered opportunity cost and benefits achieved conservation targets more cost-efficiently. The presented systematic approach ensures that targets for habitats with high fish abundance, fecundity, and vulnerability are achieved efficiently. It should be of high applicability for adaptive management processes to improve the effectiveness of existing spatial management practices, in particular when fishing and leisure activities coexist, and suggest that decision-makers should account for multiple users' costs and benefits when designing and implementing marine reserve networks. © International Council for the Exploration of the Sea 2014.

Consequently, the identification and protection of biodiversity hotspots is often a priority in marine spatial planning. Marine protected areas (MPAs) can also be designated as fisheries management tools to promote sustainable fisheries. However, the integration of these 2 objectives is still the cause of much debate, and is challenging to achieve in a simple, straightforward manner. In this study, generalised additive models of (1) various biodiversity indices and (2) an intrinsic vulnerability index of fishes to fishing were applied to produce predictive maps to identify hotspots of biodiversity and fisheries vulnerability, respectively, and combined hotspots of both parameters for shallow coastal fish assemblages surrounding 2 islands in the Azores archipelago, northeast Atlantic Ocean. Individually, hotspots of biodiversity and vulnerability covered up to half of the study area and were quantitatively well represented in the existing MPA network. Although similar levels of representativeness were found for shared hotspots, more importantly, they were substantially smaller, highlighting the importance of their complete protection to ensure the ecological functioning of multi-objective MPAs. This case study demonstrates a novel use of a fish vulnerability index in support of marine spatial planning. It can be combined with biodiversity patterns that alone may not represent well the areas of higher need for conservation. MPA design and adaptive management processes may use this straightforward approach to identify hotspots within larger areas of high conservation value, especially in data-limited situations that may benefit from predictive modelling. © Inter-Research 2014",,187-199,,,513,,Mar.

To achieve this goal, a solid knowledge base is needed, and reviews are essential. Starting from an extensive review of sediment dynamics and coastal evolution at three-time scales (from millenaries to events), in the Gironde and Pertuis Marine Park (GPMP, French Atlantic coast), we investigated the interactions between human activities, sediment dynamics and morphological evolution in the GPMP. Five activities were identified as having a maximum interaction with coastal dynamics: Land reclamation, shellfish farming, coastal defences, dredging and sand mining. In sheltered areas, where natural sediment fill occurs, land reclamation and shellfish farming increase sedimentation through a positive feedback mechanism, leading to instability. Natural coastal erosion and sediment fill in harbours and tidal channels are fought by coastal defences and dredging, respectively, creating negative feedback and stability. However, these activities also generate negative side effects such as upper beach erosion, pollution, and increased turbidity. Sand mining, mainly developed in submarine incised valleys, results in a deepening of the sea floor, which is naturally filled by sediments from surrounding areas, tending towards shoreface profile restoration. However, sand extraction exceeds natural renewal rates, and may impact the stability of coastal ecosystems in the long term. These activities are at the heart of environmental management and preservation issues. This review and a discussion of the interactions between human activities and coastal behaviour enabled us to make recommendations that could counteract instabilities and negative side effects. They mainly include depolderization, strategic retreat, optimization and sufficiency. Given the diversity of the coastal environments and human activities found in the GPMP, this work is transferable to many MPAs and coastal areas whose objective is to foster sustainable human activities compatible with habitat preservation. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,887,,Sci.

To meet this target, the Marine Spatial Ecology and Analysis program of Fisheries and Oceans Canada has implemented a mix of emerging technologies to inform the development and subsequent monitoring of marine conservation areas in British Columbia. Canadian Pacific conservation areas are diverse and complex in their survey needs. They span from the deep sea to the intertidal and have habitats ranging from seamounts and rocky reefs to eelgrass meadows and oyster beds. Three key research and monitoring technologies for these conservation areas include Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs), Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS), and environmental DNA (eDNA). These technologies allow us to expand the spatial scale of our research without exponentially increasing survey efforts and prioritize non-destructive sampling methods.

Here, we examine the dispersal patterns of a key Mediterranean loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) breeding population to identify priority foraging sites for protection. Location: Zakynthos Island, Greece and the wider Mediterranean. Method: We examined the dispersal patterns and foraging sites of 75 adult loggerheads (n = 38 males and 37 females) tracked from the breeding area of Zakynthos Island (Greece) from 2004 to 2011. We then combined our data with published sea turtle literature to identify key foraging sites for protection. Results: While both males and females exhibited similar dispersal patterns, about 25% males remained < 100 km of Zakynthos, whereas all females (except one) migrated > 200 km. Integration of our data with the wider literature isolated 10 core sites in proximity to existing protected areas, which could potentially protect 64% of the Zakynthos population, while five sites support individuals from at least 10 other loggerhead breeding populations. Main conclusions: Due to the widespread availability of neritic foraging grounds across the Mediterranean, sea turtles from Zakynthos exhibit disparate dispersal patterns. However, protecting only a few objectively defined important sites can encompass a large proportion of the foraging areas used and hence have considerable conservation benefit. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,834-844,,7,19,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,adaptation; Adaptive behaviour; adult; Aegean Islands; breeding population; breeding site; Caretta caretta; Cheloniidae; conservation management; Conservation management; dispersal; Dispersal; endangered species; Greece; habitat use; Ionian Islands; Predictive models; Sample size; satellite imagery; spatial analysis; Spatial ecology; species conservation; Telemetry; Testudines; tracking; turtle; Zakynthos [Ionian Islands],,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Recently a broad foraging dichotomy between oceanic and coastal sites has been revealed for loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta). Since oceanic and coastal foraging sites differ in prey availability, we might expect a gross difference in home-range size across these habitats. We tested this hypothesis by equipping nine adult male loggerhead sea turtles with GPS tracking devices. Location: National Marine Park of Zakynthos (NMPZ) Greece, central and eastern Mediterranean (Adriatic, Ionian and Aegean seas). Methods: In 2007, 2008 and 2009, Fastloc GPS-Argos transmitters were attached to nine male loggerheads. In addition, a Sirtrack PTT unit was attached to one male in 2007. Four of the turtles were tracked on successive years. We filtered the GPS data to ensure comparable data volumes. Route consistency between breeding and foraging sites of the four re-tracked turtles was conducted. Foraging site home range areas and within site movement patterns were investigated by the fixed kernel density method. Results: Foraging home range size ranged between circa 10 km2 at neritic habitats (coastal and open-sea on the continental shelf) to circa 1000 km2 at oceanic sites (using 90% kernel estimates), the latter most probably reflecting sparsely distributed oceanic prey. Across different years individuals did not follow exactly the same migration routes, but did show fidelity to their previous foraging sites, whether oceanic or neritic, with accurate homing in the final stages of migration. Main conclusions: The broad distribution and diverse life-history strategies of this population could complicate the identification of priority marine protected areas beyond the core breeding site. © 2010 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,840-853,,5,16,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Animalia; biodiversity; Biodiversity scale; breeding site; Caretta; Caretta caretta; CARETTA-CARETTA; CHELONIA-MYDAS; Cheloniidae; coastal zone; conservation management; Conservation management; endangered; Endangered; endangered species; foraging behavior; geographical distribution; GPS; Greece; home range; hypothesis testing; Ionian Islands; LEATHERBACK TURTLES; LEPIDOCHELYS-KEMPII; life history; LONG-DISTANCE MIGRATION; male; marine vertebrate; Marine vertebrate; Mediterranean Sea; MEDITERRANEAN SEA; migration route; MOVEMENT PATTERNS; phenology; Phenology; prey availability; PROTECTED AREAS; remote sensing; remote technology; Remote technology; SATELLITE; SEXUAL SEGREGATION; site selection; space use; subtidal environment; Testudines; tracking; turtle; Vertebrata; Zakynthos [Ionian Islands]; Zakynthos National Marine Park,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Turtles primarily used areas very close to shore (approx. 7. km in length by 1. km in width, within the. <10. m isobath) for breeding and foraging activity at different times of the year. We calculated that this small nearshore coastal zone encompassed 72% of all turtle GPS locations recorded in the MPA, and is therefore important for conservation management. We developed an index to evaluate the suitability of the existing and proposed conservation zones based on (1) home range area use by turtles in these zones versus (2) zone size, so that the benefit to turtles could be maximized while minimizing the negative impacts to other stakeholders (e.g., boat operators). With this evidence-based approach, we propose a modification to the existing MPA that might both enhance local economic tourism activities and better safeguard this key sea turtle breeding population.

The findings of plant phenological observations at a local scale, conducted in 2009 for the representative case of the rural and urban area of the city of Diepholz (Lower Saxony, Germany), corroborate this development. For example, there a prolongation of the growing season was observed. Especially those phenological phases with a statistically significant correlation between onset and air temperature exhibit the strongest shift towards the beginning of the year. The analysis of additional metadata revealed a distinct influence of further, locally varying factors on plant phenology; such factors include land use, building density and soil condition. Consideration of such metadata would increase the value of phenological monitoring. Hence, the establishment of standardised metadata acquisition within phenological networks should be aimed at.

Aichi Target 11 indicates that countries are to conserve at least 10% of coastal and marine areas, especially areas of particular importance for biodiversity and ecosystem services, by 2020. In 2015 Canada affirmed its commitment to the 10% target, and also committed to an interim target to protect 5% of coastal and marine areas by the end of 2017. The interim target was met in October 2017 through a combination of federal and provincial marine protected areas (MPAs) and fisheries area closures that qualify as other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs), which are referred to domestically as marine refuges. In 2016 the Government of Canada set out a five-point plan for achieving its marine conservation targets, which includes finishing what was started, protecting large offshore areas, protecting areas under pressure, advancing OECMs and establishing MPAs faster. Key challenges that the Government of Canada faces in meeting its 2020 marine conservation target include balancing socio-economic impacts with the need to conserve biodiversity and sustain ecosystem health and ensuring meaningful engagement with partners and stakeholders in a short period of time. Once Canada has met its 2020 marine conservation target it will continue to advance ongoing marine conservation initiatives, most notably the development of a national conservation network, and seek to ensure effective long-term conservation through the management, monitoring and enforcement of established MPAs and OECMs. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,170-180,,S2,29,,Aquatic Conserv.

The aim was to establish if HPMAs can provide benefits beyond those afforded by other types of marine protected area (MPA). We identify critical interactions within and between ecological and socio-economic effects to help marine planners and managers make informed decisions about the trade-offs of alternate management actions or measures for MPAs. Well-designed and enforced MPAs with high levels of protection (HPMAs) often provide conservation benefits within their boundaries beyond those afforded by other types of MPA. Much remains to be learned about the socio-economic effects of HPMAs. Empirical evidence to date suggests that potential benefits cannot all be maximised simultaneously because potentially conflicting trade-offs exist not only between but also within ecological and socio-economic effects. Marine planners and managers must be able to evaluate the impact and distribution of trade-offs for differing management regimes; to make informed decisions about levels of protection required in MPAs to ensure sustainable use of marine resources and meet conservation objectives. One of the main challenges remains providing evidence of the societal benefits from restricting use in these areas. © Copyright © 2019 Schratzberger, Neville, Painting, Weston and Paltriguera.",,,,,6,,Front.

This is particularly so in coastal areas adjacent to major population centres. Given high recreational and conservation values in such areas, economic activities need to be highly efficient in order to persist. Management of these industries must therefore also encourage efficient production and full utilisation of the areas available. In order to achieve this, managers must first understand the level and drivers of productivity, and how these can be influenced. In this study, by way of illustration, the focus was on the Sydney rock oyster industry within Queensland's Moreton Bay, a multiple use marine park with high recreational and conservation value adjacent to Australia's third largest city. Productivity of the oyster industry in Moreton Bay is currently low compared to historic levels, and management has an objective of reversing this trend. It is unclear whether this difference is due to oyster farmers' business choices and personal characteristics or whether varying environmental conditions in the Moreton Bay limit the capacity of the oyster industry. These require different management responses in order to enhance productivity. The study examined different productivity measures of the oyster industry using data envelopment analysis (DEA) to determine where productivity gains can be made and by how much. The findings suggest that the industry is operating at a high level of capacity utilisation, but a low level of efficiency. The results also suggest that both demographic and environmental conditions affect technical efficiency in the Bay, with water characteristics improvements and appropriate training potentially providing the greatest benefits to the industry. Methods used in this study are transferable to other industries and provide a means by which coastal aquaculture may be managed to ensure it remains competitive with other uses of coastal resources. © 2014 Schrobback et al.",,,,12,9,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,"2ND-STAGE DEA; adult; aged; allocative efficiency; animal; Animals; aquaculture; Aquaculture; Article; Australia; capacity utilization; CAPACITY UTILIZATION; chlorophyll a; coastal aquaculture; Conservation of Natural Resources; cost benefit analysis; data analysis; data envelopment analysis; demography; dissolved oxygen; ecosystem; Ecosystem; educational status; environmental impact; environmental protection; female; FISHERIES; food industry; geographic distribution; geography; Geography; growth, development and aging; human; IMPACTS; income; industry; Industry; light penetration; light related phenomena; male; MANAGEMENT; Models, Theoretical; MORETON BAY; nitrogen; nonhuman; Ostreidae; oyster; oyster industry; OYSTERS; parameters; pH; phosphorus; PRODUCTION FRONTIER; productivity; QUALITY; Queensland; resource management; Saccostrea glomerata; salinity; scale efficiency; seashore; socioeconomics; statistics; Statistics as Topic; technical efficiency; TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY; theoretical model; trend study; turbidity; water analysis; water quality; water temperature",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, this approach assumes close correlation between abiotic and biotic patterns. The Solitary Islands Marine Park, northern NSW, Australia, currently uses a habitat classification system (HCS) to assist with planning, but this is based only on data for reefs. We used Baited Remote Underwater Videos (BRUVs) to survey fish assemblages of unconsolidated substrata at different depths, distances from shore, and across an along-shore spatial scale of 10 s of km (2 transects) to examine how well the HCS works for this dominant habitat. We used multivariate regression modelling to examine the importance of these, and other environmental factors (backscatter intensity, fine-scale bathymetric variation and rugosity), in structuring fish assemblages. There were significant differences in fish assemblages across depths, distance from shore, and over the medium spatial scale of the study: together, these factors generated the optimum model in multivariate regression. However, marginal tests suggested that backscatter intensity, which itself is a surrogate for sediment type and hardness, might also influence fish assemblages and needs further investigation. Species richness was significantly different across all factors: however, total MaxN only differed significantly between locations.

We assess changes in natural capital and ecosystem services related to these social-ecological governance approaches to ecosystem management and investigate their capacity to respond to change and new challenges. The adaptive governance initiatives are compared with other efforts aimed at conservation and sustainable use of natural capital: Natura 2000 in Europe, lobster fisheries in the Gulf of Maine, North America, and fisheries in Europe. In contrast to these efforts, we found that the adaptive governance cases developed capacity to perform ecosystem management, manage multiple ecosystem services, and monitor, communicate, and respond to ecosystem-wide changes at landscape and seascape levels with visible effects on natural capital. They enabled actors to collaborate across diverse interests, sectors, and institutional arrangements and detect opportunities and problems as they developed while nurturing adaptive capacity to deal with them. They all spanned local to international levels of decision making, thus representing multilevel governance systems for managing natural capital. As with any governance system, internal changes and external drivers of global impacts and demands will continue to challenge the long-term success of such initiatives. © 2015, National Academy of Sciences.

Many MPAs fail to be effective because of too weak levels of protection, and some governments aim to increase the coverage of fully and highly protected areas within their waters. However, governments face numerous barriers in translating their commitments into effective conservation measures. Here, we propose a three-step framework to identify the barriers faced when designating and implementing specific levels of protection and to design an action plan to lever these barriers. Using France as a case study, we found that differing stakeholders' perceptions and impaired interaction between stakeholders and decision makers hamper the transition from ambitions to action. We suggest a two-tiered action plan to address these barriers, acting at both deep and shallow leverage points. Enhancing participation and holding decision makers accountable for their commitments while mobilizing financial capital and simplifying governance will facilitate the implementation of effective conservation measures with adequate levels of protection. © 2022 The Authors",,987-999,,9,5,,One Earth,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Cell Press,,,,barriers; BIODIVERSITY; CONSERVATION; conservation implementation; conservation management; DRIVERS; ENGAGEMENT; environmental protection; France; levels of protection; leverage points; MANAGEMENT; marine environment; marine policy; MPA effectiveness; MPA implementation; PARTICIPATION; PERCEPTIONS; protected area; RESERVES; social-ecological systems; stakeholder; stakeholders; SUPPORT; SUSTAINABILITY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

They face huge and diverse challenges and have been systematically banished from their natural habitats. The species that managed to survive close to human settlements, as pumas (Puma concolor), have been severely threatened mainly because of persecution and poaching in retaliation for depredation episodes on domestic herds. This Chapter will present human-wildlife-conflicts (HWC), focusing on pumas, in two different Brazilian biomes: the hinterland of Northeast and the Southern Atlantic Forest. The hinterland of Brazilian Northeast has the largest expanse of the Seasonally Dry Tropical Forest and Woodlands (SDTFW) biome in the New World, known as Caatinga, with nine different ecoregions. As in any other semiarid region, it has an extended dry period in which rainfall is scarce. The southern limit of Atlantic Forest in Brazil has the domain of Araucaria angustifolia forest creating a mosaic of landscapes with south Brazilian natural grassland. The regional climate is subtropical with a high annual precipitation, without a marked dry season. Both study sites are located within or surrounding a polygon of protected areas and as in most Brazilian regions, the implementation of this kind of sites caused troublesome with the local populations. Studies considering the human dimensions approaches are needed to better understand it in South and Northeast Brazil. Considering these two contrasting biomes and the absence of unified protocols in this field of knowledge, some comparable variables between studies methodologies were selected. The objective was to start to fill the gap in human dimensions of human-puma-conflicts, with South and Northeast Brazil as showcases. Few similarities were found: farmers agreed that poaching pumas would not be a solution for the problem of livestock depredation; they did not ask for help from any wildlife management institution; and, farmers believed that pumas could be a risk to their livelihood, including husbandry practices. This information may support conservation and wildlife management strategies. Moreover, unified protocols should be designed and implemented to identify, describe, understand, and predict human perceptions and behaviour in different contexts, especially when dealing with charismatic megafauna. © 2021 Nova Science Publishers, Inc.",,173-199,,,,,,,,,,,"Nova Science Publishers, Inc.",,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Crit.

The issue is becoming more and more important worldwide, considering the increasing natural disruption. This also applies to densely populated countries like Germany. The National Strategy on Biological Diversity (NBS) sets goals for preserving and establishing more wilderness areas in Germany: 2% of the national land territory shall be designated to become large-scale wilderness areas and 5% of the forested areas in Germany are to be preserved as permanently unused woodland (areas). There may be partial overlaps since large forest areas of unused woodland qualify for both wilderness targets. The implementation of these wilderness objectives is achieved within the political framework through public administration activities, scientific work and communication. As a result of these activities a definition for wilderness areas in Germany as well as quality criteria for large wilderness areas in Germany have been developed. Furthermore, the potential for large wilderness areas was identified on a surface-oriented basis. These potential areas cover approximately 3.5% of Germany's land territory and can be found in woodlands, watercourses, coastlines, peatlands and high mountain ranges as well as in former military training grounds or mining areas. To support the wilderness targets, the Federal Government has made 156,000 hectares of federal land available as ‘National Natural Heritage’. To date, approximately 0.6% of the national land territory is protected as large-scale wilderness areas and approximately 1.9% of the forested area is designated to be permanently unused woodland; however, there is still a gap of 1.4% (large areas) and 3.1% (forests), to fulfill the targets of the NBS. It is shown, that no starting point of the natural state can be defined for ‘wilderness areas’. For a particular area to be classifiable as a wilderness area, natural processes without or with very slight human influence must be ensured. Our analysis reveals that the goals for more wilderness areas in Germany are ambitious, but achievable. The first steps for their realization, like the establishment of specific goals, the development of specific strategies and programs by the federal states and the demonstration of a realistic potential for more wilderness areas in Germany have been taken. However, the road to reach these goals is still long, and in the following years there is a continual need for numerous concerted activities by the relevant stakeholders in the field of wilderness. © 2018 The Authors",,45-52,,,42,,J.

They can hence support decision making regarding sustainable ocean resource handling and protection schemes. Across a large number of scales, input parameters and classification methods, numerous studies categorize the ocean into seascapes, hydro-morphological provinces or clusters. Many of them are regional, however, while only a few are on a basin scale. This study presents an automated cluster analysis of the entire Atlantic seafloor environment, based on eight global datasets and their derivatives: Bathymetry, slope, terrain ruggedness index, topographic position index, sediment thickness, POC flux, salinity, dissolved oxygen, temperature, current velocity, and phytoplankton abundance in surface waters along with seasonal variabilities. As a result, we obtained nine seabed areas (SBAs) that portray the Atlantic seafloor. Some SBAs have a clear geological and geomorphological nature, while others are defined by a mixture of terrain and water body characteristics. The majority of the SBAs, especially those covering the deep ocean areas, are coherent and show little seasonal and hydrographic variation, whereas other, nearshore SBAs, are smaller sized and dominated by high seasonal changes. To demonstrate the potential use of the marine landscape map for marine spatial planning purposes, we mapped out local SBA diversity using the patch richness index developed in landscape ecology. It identifies areas of high landscape diversity, and is a practical way of defining potential areas of interest, e.g. for designation as protected areas, or for further research. Clustering probabilities are highest (100%) in the center of SBA patches and decrease towards the edges (< 98%). On the SBA point cloud which was reduced for probabilities <98%, we ran a diversity analysis to identify and highlight regions that have a high number of different SBAs per area, indicating the use of such analyses to automatically find potentially delicate areas. We found that some of the highlights are already within existing EBSAs, but the majority is yet unexplored. Copyright © 2022 Schumacher, Huvenne, Devey, Arbizu, Biastoch and Meinecke.",,,,,9,,Front.

Despite the relatively low ability of most invasive mammals to cross cold sea water channels, invaders are apparently colonizing new islands. Our objective was to provide an assessment of the expansion of invasive mammals within these sub-Antarctic ecosystems, determine whether human-mediated movement of invasive species is a plausible dispersal mechanism, and identify areas likely to be colonized in the near future. We report a decade of fieldwork (2006–2017) in 44 sites on 13 islands within the Cape Horn Biosphere Reserve including opportunistic and systematic camera trapping, carnivore diet, questionnaires, small mammal trapping, and walks/transects. We found new records of invasive mammals on seven islands, particularly for American mink (Neovison vison) and American beaver (Castor canadensis). Interviews with fishermen showed that mink, dogs (Canis familiaris), and small rodents are likely passengers in vessels. Finally, species distribution models revealed that the putative invasive-free Cape Horn National Park (55°S) is suitable for several invasive species, suggesting a high risk of invasion if species are introduced. We conclude that it is urgent to implement barriers to dispersal to prevent further invasion. In the case of dogs and cats (Felis catus), the first step should be control actions that target pet owners. Finally, we highlight the need of systematic, long-term biodiversity monitoring and citizen science in the Cape Horn Archipelago and common conservation guidelines for the terrestrial sub-Antarctic ecosystems. © 2019, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,1093-1105,,6,42,,Polar Biol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Verlag,,,,AMERICAN MINK; Animalia; archipelago; Assisted dispersal; BIODIVERSITY; BIOLOGICAL INVASIONS; biomonitoring; BIOSPHERE RESERVE; Canis familiaris; Cape Horn Biosphere Reserve; Castor canadensis; Chile; CITIZEN SCIENCE; Conservation; dispersal; DISTRIBUTION MODELS; DOG-POPULATIONS; domestic species; Felis catus; Free-ranging domestic animals; guideline; invasive species; island biogeography; Islands; Magallanes; mammal; Mammalia; MANAGEMENT; Monitoring; movement; Mustela; Mustela vison; native species; nature conservation; new record; range expansion; Range expansion; Rodentia; SOUTHERN END; TIERRA-DEL-FUEGO; Vertebrata; vertebrate; Vertebrates,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This is especially true for ""naďve"" birds that have evolved in the absence of terrestrial predators in island ecosystems. The American mink (Mustela vison) has recently established a feral population on Navarino Island (55°S), southern Chile, where it represents a new guild of terrestrial mammal predators. We investigated the impact of mink on ground-nesting coastal waterbirds with the aim of deriving a vulnerability profile for birds as a function of different breeding strategies, habitat, and nest characteristics. We compared rates of nest survival and mink predation on 102 nests of solitary nesting species (Chloephaga picta, Tachyeres pteneres), on 361 nests of colonial birds (Larus dominicanus, Larus scoresbii, Sterna hirundinacea), and on 558 artificial nests. We calculated relative mink and bird densities at all nest sites. Nests of colonial species showed the highest nest survival probabilities (67-84%) and no predation by mink. Nest survival rates for solitary nesting species were lower (5-20%) and mink predation rates higher (10-44%). Discriminant analyses revealed that mink preyed upon artificial nests mainly at shores with rocky outcroppings where mink were abundant. High nest concealment increased the probability for predation by mink. Conservation planning should consider that invasive mink might severely affect the reproduction success of bird species with the following characteristics: solitary nesting, nesting habitat at rocky outcrop shores, and concealed nests. We recommend that work starts immediately to control the mink population with a priority in the nesting habitats of vulnerable endemic waterbirds. © 2009.",,1450-1460,,7,142,,Biol.

The use by silviculture (spring) and native grassland (summer) showed cytotoxic effects for A. cepa. The use by agriculture outside the CPWR (spring) showed genotoxic effect and stimulation of mitotic cell division. For the animal bioindicator, the use by agriculture within the CPWR (winter), native grassland (autumn and spring), silviculture (autumn and spring), and agriculture outside the CU (spring) showed a toxic effect. A PCA analysis showed a correlation between the results of toxicity, cytotoxicity, and genotoxicity with the presence of macronutrients and metals in the evaluated soil samples. Possibly influenced by their soil composition characteristics (silviculture and native grassland) or the management of agricultural areas. In addition, samples from the rainy season (spring) showed higher ecotoxicity. These results show that biomonitoring through different organisms is important for evaluating environmental quality and indicate the need for the implementation of preventive measures in the CPWR to avoid the toxic, cytotoxic, and genotoxic effects found.

The simplest partitioning method, which could provide low-latency information for managers at low cost, remains a purely optical classification based on ocean colour remote sensing. The question is whether such a simple approach has value. Here, the efficacy of optical classifications in constraining physical variables that modulate the epipelagic environment is tested for the tropical Indian Ocean, with a focus on the Chagos marine protected area (MPA). Using remote sensing data, it was found that optical classes corresponded to distinctive ranges of wind speed, wind stress curl, sea surface temperature, sea surface slope, sea surface height anomaly and geostrophic currents (Kruskal–Wallis and post-hoc Tukey honestly significantly different tests, ? = 0.01). Between-class differences were significant for a set of sub-domains that resolved zonal and meridional gradients across the MPA and Seychelles–Chagos Thermocline Ridge, whereas between-domain differences were only significant for the north–south gradient (PERMANOVA, ? = 0.01). A preliminary test of between-class differences in surface CO2 concentrations from the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 demonstrated a small decrease in mean pCO2 with increasing chlorophyll (chl), from 418 to 398 ppm. Simple optical class maps therefore provide an overview of growth conditions, the spatial distribution of resources — from which habitat fragmentation metrics can be calculated, and carbon sequestration potential. Within the 17 year study period, biotic variables were found to have decreased at up to 0.025%a?1 for all optical classes, which is slower than reported elsewhere (Mann-Kendall-Sen regression, ? = 0.01). Within the MPA, positive Indian Ocean Dipole conditions and negative Southern Oscillation Indices were weakly associated with decreasing chl, fluorescence line height (FLH), eddy kinetic energy, easterly wind stress and wind stress curl, and with increasing FLH/chl, sea surface temperature, SSH gradients and northerly wind stress, consistent with reduced surface mixing and increased stratification.

Increasing anthropogenic activities mean that many countries are being forced to develop spatial planning schemes, while at the same time implementing conservation sites for sensitive species at sea. The effects of ship traffic on seabirds sensitive to human disturbance are currently too poorly understood to allow for the development of proper planning and conservation guidelines. We therefore used aerial surveys and experimental disturbance to elucidate the effects of passing ships on the distribution patterns, habitat loss, and species-specific flight reactions of birds, as well as the potential for habituation. Loons (Gavia spp.) showed clear avoidance of areas with high shipping intensity. Flush distances of four sea duck species differed significantly, with the longest distances recorded for Common Scoters (Melanitta nigra) and the shortest for Common Eiders (Somateria mollissima). Flush distance was positively related to flock size. Among all the sea duck species studied, the duration of temporary habitat loss was longest for Common Scoters. We found indications of habituation in sea ducks within areas of channeled traffic. However, it is questionable if habituation to free-ranging ships is likely to occur, because of their unpredictable nature. We therefore recommend that spatial planning should aim to channel ship traffic wherever possible to avoid further habitat fragmentation and to allow for habituation, at least in some species. Information on the effects of shipping on other seabird species and during different periods of the year is urgently needed, together with information on the effects of different types of boats, including recreational and fishing vessels. © 2011 by the Ecological Society of America.",,1851-1860,,5,21,,Ecol.

The management effectiveness of MPAs (the degree to which MPAs achieve their goals) is highly variable and can be affected by many MPA attributes, for example their design, enforcement and age. Another key factor possibly affecting MPA management effectiveness is the management performance, here conceived according to Horigue et al. definition (2014) as the “level of effort exerted to enhance and sustain management of MPAs”. Organization Science (OS), the discipline that studies organizations, can offer a useful framework to assess and interpret MPA management performance. Using an exploratory multiple case study approach, we applied OS principles to 11 Mediterranean MPAs in order to: i) characterize several MPA organizational features; ii) assess MPA management performance (evaluated as the effort deployed in, for example, planning the future, formalizing measurable goals, and implementing specific strategies). Results show that a number of organizational features and networking attributes are highly variable among the MPAs we have studied. For instance, goals are seldom measurable and the strategy to achieve goals is not systematically pursued. Two relevant outcomes emerge from this exploratory study: i) the management performance of the MPAs considered needs considerable improvements; ii) the methods and the approach proposed could help MPAs' managers and policy makers to understand how to improve their management performance and, consequently, their effectiveness. © 2018",,175-184,,,223,,J.

They have the potential to produce a wide array of positive socio-ecological effects. Their effectiveness, however, varies dramatically. The sources of this variability are numerous and, in some cases, quite well studied. Yet, a significant portion of the variability in MPAs effectiveness still remains unexplained. MPAs, due to a number of intrinsic features, can be considered ""organizational systems"", a definition recognizing the fact that 1) their effectiveness can be influenced by their own organizational dimensions and 2) they could be analyzed employing the typical tools provided by 'Organization Science' (hereafter OS). Here we analyze the available literature on MPAs on a worldwide scale to explore whether and how the principles of OS have been used as a scientific basis for the evaluation of MPA effectiveness. We found that no study explicitly used a comprehensive OS framework for evaluating effectiveness in the context of MPAs. Just 20 studies considered some organizational dimensions in their analysis (e.g. professionalism of the organization members, vision, goals, strategy and networking), but not in a comprehensive manner. The outputs of our review stress the limited use of the OS methodologies and principles in the context of MPAs so far. We posit that there is a significant potential for new insights in MPA science thanks to a more integrated implementation of an OS framework for the interpretation and improvement of MPA socio-ecological effectiveness. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,443-448,,,116,,Ocean Coast.

The significant variability of EME among MPAs has been partly explained by MPA design, management and implementation features (e.g. surface area, enforcement, age of protection). We investigated EME variability by employing, for the first time, Organization Science. Eight Mediterranean MPAs were taken into account as case studies to explore the relationships between EME and MPA features, such as: 1) organizational size (i.e. the ratio between the number of full-time employees and the total MPA surface area), 2) management performance (i.e. the level of effort exerted to enhance and sustain the MPA management, including enforcement), 3) total surface area, and 4) MPA age. The log-response ratios of fish biomass and density in protected vs unprotected (control) areas were used as a proxy of EME. Management performance, organizational size and, to a lesser extent, MPA age were positively correlated with the log-response ratio of fish biomass, whereas total surface area did not display a significant role. None of the four features considered was significantly correlated with the log-response ratio of fish density. Based on our findings, we argue that the employment of Organization Science in the management effectiveness assessment can assist MPA managers to reach MPAs goals more effectively, with a more efficient use of available resources. © 2019",,285-292,,,240,,J.

The maritime pine bast scale, Matsucoccus feytaudi Ducasse (Hemiptera: Matsucoccidae), causes serious damage to Pinus pinaster forests in SE France, Corsica and Italy where it has been introduced. This study illustrates the adaptive management plan implemented in the Migliarino, San Rossore, Massaciuccoli Regional Natural Park in Tuscany, Italy, where M. feytaudi arrived in 2004, leading to the decay of local P. pinaster stands. The management programme, aimed at slowing the establishment and growth of M. feytaudi, was carried out in the main sector of the park, Tenuta di San Rossore, to retard the destruction of the P. pinaster coastal strip protecting the more internal woodland from sea salt and to allow replacement of P. pinaster trees with a more stable broad-leaved wood. The combined use of mass trapping and silvicultural interventions, applied in a targeted manner according to distribution maps of pest captures and damage, helped to delay forest destruction compared with a nearby unmanaged area of the park Tenuta di Tombolo. Although M. feytaudi continued to spread during the management period, the populations remained at low levels for 6 years, showing a marked increase in 2012. During this period, the P. pinaster stands were reduced from 320 to 249 ha. The final result of this ongoing gradual conversion process will be transformation of the P. pinaster forest into Holm oak woods and Mediterranean shrub land, while P. pinaster will survive as clusters or blocks of trees.

We synthesized the results of empirical studies that compared partially protected areas (PPA) to (i) no-take marine reserves (NTR) and (ii) to open access areas (Open), to assess the potential benefits of different levels of protection for fish and invertebrate populations. Methods: A systematic search for relevant articles used terms describing MPAs, the biota (e.g. fish, invertebrates) and measures (e.g. density, biomass) of interest. Articles were examined for relevance using specified inclusion criteria. Included articles were appraised critically; the influence of studies whose effect of protection was identified to be confounded by habitat was examined by running a sensitivity analysis parallel to the main analysis that included all studies. Random effect meta-analysis on ln-transformed response ratios was used to examine the response to protection. Subgroup analyses and meta-regression were used to explore variation in effectiveness in relation to MPA and species covariates. Results: Synthesis of available evidence suggests that while PPAs resulted in higher values of biological metrics (density and biomass) than unprotected areas, greatest benefits were apparent in NTR areas when NTRs and PPAs were compared. For fish, the positive response to protection, whether full or partial protection, was primarily driven by targeted fish species. Although positive benefits were also apparent in non-target fish species, the results were more variable, perhaps because of fewer studies focusing on this group. Invertebrate studies were underrepresented and those available focused mainly on scallops, lobsters and sea urchins. Among the targeted species groups, benefits from partial protection relative to fished areas were highest for scallops, whereas benefits from full relative to partial protection were highest for lobsters. The examination of fish and invertebrate response to protection in terms of species richness and length was hampered by small sample sizes. There was significant variability in the magnitude of response to protection among the MPAs included in this study. The factors determining such variation were generally unclear although the size and protection regime of the PPA explained some of this variability. Conclusions: The available evidence suggests that no-take reserves provide some benefit over less protected areas, nevertheless the significant ecological effects of partially protected areas relative to open access areas suggest that partially protected areas are a valuable spatial management tool particularly in areas where exclusion of all extractive activities is not a socio-economically and politically viable option.

Partially protected areas (PPAs) that restrict some extractive uses are often regarded as a balance between biodiversity conservation and socio-economic viability. Few attempts have been made to generalize the ecological effects of PPAs. We synthesized the results of empirical studies that compared PPAs to (i) no-take reserves (NTRs) and (ii) to open access (Open) areas, to assess the potential benefits of different levels of protection for fish populations. Response to protection was examined in relation to MPA parameters and the exploitation status of fish. Our syntheses suggest that while PPAs significantly enhance density and biomass of fish relative to Open areas, NTRs yielded significantly higher biomass of fish within their boundaries relative to PPAs. The positive response to protection was primarily driven by target species. There was a large degree of variability in the magnitude of response to protection, although the size of the PPA explained some of this variability. The protection regime within the PPA provided useful insights into the effectiveness of partial MPAs. We conclude that MPAs with partial protection confer advantages, such as enhanced density and biomass of fish, compared to areas with no restrictions, although the strongest responses occurred for areas with total exclusion. Thus, MPAs with a combination of protection levels are a valuable spatial management tool particularly in areas where exclusion of all activities is not a socio-economically and politically viable option. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,58-77,,1,16,,Fish Fish.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,CLOSED AREAS; COMMUNITY STRUCTURE; Exploitation status; EXPLOITED FISH; fish; Fish; HOUTMAN ABROLHOS ISLANDS; LONG-TERM; MANAGEMENT; marine protected areas; Marine protected areas; MPA design; PALINURUS-ELEPHAS; protection level; Protection level; REEF FISH ASSEMBLAGES; RESERVE DESIGN; SPINY LOBSTER; weighted meta-analysis; Weighted meta-analysis,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We conducted a global analysis of foraging areas of adult green turtles (Chelonia mydas) subject to satellite tracking (n= 145) and the conservation designation of these areas according to International Union for Conservation of Nature criteria. Location The green turtle has a largely circumtropical distribution, with adults migrating up to thousands of kilometres between nesting beaches and foraging areas, typically in neritic seagrass or algal beds. Methods We undertook an assessment of satellite tracking projects that followed the movements of green turtles in tropical and subtropical habitats. This approach was facilitated by the use of the Satellite Tracking and Analysis Tool (http://www.seaturtle.org) and the integration of publicly available data on Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). Results We show that turtles aggregate in designated MPAs far more than would be expected by chance when considered globally (35% of all turtles were located within MPAs) or separately by ocean basin (Atlantic 67%, Indian 34%, Mediterranean 19%, Pacific 16%). Furthermore, we show that the size, level of protection and time of establishment of MPAs affects the likelihood of MPAs containing foraging turtles, highlighting the importance of large, well-established reserves.

Therefore, all known orchid species are protected in several countries by regional, national and international legislation. Several studies have cast doubts on the effectiveness of legislation to ensure the protection of wild orchids. We assessed the vitality of four orchid populations in a coastal area in Northern Italy, by monitoring the vegetative and reproductive traits of the orchid populations growing both in the protected sites comprising the Natura 2000 network, and in non-protected sites. We also monitored the level of environmental threat to orchid vitality. The early-flowering deceptive species (Ophrys sphegodes and Anacamptis morio) exhibited high vegetative vitality and experienced similar levels of environmental threat in the protected and non-protected areas. However, their reproductive success was strongly jeopardized, probably by a failed pollination that impeded the fruit set. The late-flowering, partially or totally rewarding species (Anacamptis pyramidalis and Anacamptis coriophora) were more strongly impacted by spring mowing and ungulate herbivory and alien species. Only for A. coriophora were the herbivory and alien species invasions lower at the protected vs. non-protected sites, which ensured a higher population vitality at the protected sites.

Expansion and modernization of cultivation methods are needed to reach this target but a cost-benefit evaluation for biodiversity conservation is required to achieve sustainable aquaculture practices. We assess drivers of avian richness and abundance in a long-established seabird community present in a series of longline mussel farms in Italy and in response to a recent modernization process in the farming methodology. Over 2 years (24 surveys) we detected a remarkable diversity (15 species in 5 families) and abundance (n = 5858) of birds, of which 40% (n = 6) are regarded as species of international conservation importance. Our models highlighted that the strongest driver explaining variation in abundance and richness across sites was the type of buoy and the associated cultivation method applied. The older and fast-declining double headrope design, offered greater stability for birds to rest. Conversely, the newer and mechanizable single headrope design dominant method in our study site and projected to replace the older system, was unsuitable for birds. Our findings confirm the function of mussel farms as a sort of marine protected area where low anthropogenic disturbance, higher prey availability and suitable artificial structures promote the establishment of seabird communities with minimal impacts on harvest. However, we suggest that potential modernization of farming methods, important to meet future human demand, needs to be carefully assessed and compensated for, particularly where long-established seabird communities have formed in response to such practices. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,243,,Biol.

Systematic spatial planning of dugong habitats can help to achieve biodiversity conservation and area-based protection targets in the region. In this study, we employed environmental niche modelling to predict suitable dugong habitats and identify influencing factors along its entire distribution range in Indian waters. We examined data on fishing pressures collected through systematic interview surveys, citizen-science data, and field surveys to demarcate dugong habitats with varying risks. Seagrass presence was the primary factor in determining dugong habitat suitability across the study sites. Other variables such as depth, bathymetric slope, and Euclidean distance from the shore were significant factors, particularly in predicting seasonal suitability. Predicted suitable habitats showed a remarkable shift from pre-monsoon in Palk Bay to post-monsoon in the Gulf of Mannar, indicating the potential of seasonal dugong movement. The entire coastline along the Palk Bay-Gulf of Mannar region was observed to be at high to moderate risk, including the Gulf of Mannar Marine National Park, a high-risk area. The Andaman Islands exhibited high suitability during pre- and post-monsoon season, whereas the Nicobar Islands were highly suitable for monsoon season. Risk assessment of modelled suitable areas revealed that < 15% of high-risk areas across Andaman and Nicobar Islands and Palk Bay and Gulf of Mannar, Tamil Nadu, fall within the existing protected areas. A few offshore reef islands are identified under high-risk zones in the Gulf of Kutch, Gujarat. We highlight the utility of citizen science and secondary data in performing large-scale spatial ecological analysis. Overall, identifying synoptic scale ‘Critical Dugong Habitats’ has positive implications for the country's progress towards achieving the global 30 × 30 target through systematic conservation planning. © The Author(s) 2024.",,,,1,14,,Sci.

The Ekoetxea Biodiversity Interpretive Center is located in the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve (Biscay, Basque Country, in the North part of Spain). There, students can learn about the fauna, flora, countryside and forests of the Urdaibai estuary in the Basque Country. The main goal of Ekoetxea is thus the promotion of the connectedness of its visitors, mainly students, with nature. Such connection has been acknowledged as necessary to enhance our quality of life and to counter current environmental problems. However, the studies on the effectiveness of such activities carried out outside the school are scarce. Therefore, the objectives of this study are, first, the acquisition of information about the Basque youth's attitude towards nature and, second, the assessment of the effectiveness in promoting interest in nature of visiting the Ekoetxea Interpretive Center. With such aims, 513 Primary Education and Secondary School students were surveyed prior to their visit to the Ekoetxea to assess their knowledge and interest about nature. They were asked on their attitude towards protection of nature and current environmental problems, their interest in biodiversity, animals and plants and finally, their expectations on the visit. After the visit, the students' satisfaction with the visit was assessed through another survey. This final survey also included questions regarding topics such as their interest in nature, the actions they might take for its protection, their knowledge on problems regarding nature. that had been acknowledged in the first questionnaire. The comparison between the initial and the final surveys reported positive results: students showed a major compromise for nature protection after the visit. In fact, the differences detected at the entrance of Ekoetxea between Primary and Secondary Education students, the first were more active in nature protection, faded when they leaved the Biodiversity Interpretive Center. Also, in general, their knowledge about current problems regarding nature increased after visiting Ekoetxea for the number of trouble mentioned in the second survey was larger. Regarding their satisfaction, both Primary and Secondary Education students found the visit had met their expectations, which for most of them consisted of ""having a nice day"", (66%), and for the least ""actively taking part"", (20%).",,593-597,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000447408800083,,,,,,,EDUCATION; expectations from the visit; interest in nature; outside the school activities,,"Chova, LG; Martinez, AL; Torres, IC",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"12TH INTERNATIONAL TECHNOLOGY, EDUCATION AND DEVELOPMENT CONFERENCE (INTED)",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, historical information about fishing effort and fishing gear-use are often unavailable. Within a marine biodiversity hotspot in the Philippines, we characterized spatio-temporal dynamics of fishing (1960-2010) using participatory mapping. First, we compared non-spatial and spatial estimates of total fishing effort. Our non-spatial estimate indicated that fishing increased 2.5 fold, reaching 1.3 million fishing days per year in 2010. Yet, spatial estimates showed fishing effort increased >20 fold, with the highest effort in 1990. Second, we evaluated how spatial characteristics of fishing changed over time. We introduced a method to estimate the sample size of fishers needed to accurately map the extent of fishing. By 2000, fishing extent grew 50% and small-scale fisheries affected over 90% of the coastal ocean. The expanded fishing area coincided with a greater spatial overlap among fishing gears and a proliferation of intensive fishing gears (destructive, active, non-selective). The expansion and intensification of fishing shown here emphasize the need for spatial approaches to management that focus on intensive, and often illegal, fishing gears. Such approaches are critical in targeting conservation actions (e.g. gear restrictions) in the most vulnerable areas. © International Council for the Exploration of the Sea 2017.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) have been proposed as one tool to increase coral reef ecosystem resistance and resilience (i.e. recovery) to the negative effects of climate change, yet few studies have evaluated their efficacy in achieving these goals. We used a high resolution 4 km global temperature anomaly database from 1985-2005 and 8040 live coral cover surveys on protected and unprotected reefs to determine whether or not MPAs have been effective in mitigating temperature-driven coral loss. Generally, protection in MPAs did not reduce the effect of warm temperature anomalies on coral cover declines. Shortcomings in MPA design, including size and placement, may have contributed to the lack of an MPA effect. Empirical studies suggest that corals that have been previously exposed to moderate levels of thermal stress have greater adaptive capacity and resistance to future thermal stress events. Existing MPAs protect relatively fewer reefs with moderate anomaly frequencies, potentially reducing their effectiveness. However, our results also suggest that the benefits from MPAs may not be great enough to offset the magnitude of losses from acute thermal stress events. Although MPAs are important conservation tools, their limitations in mitigating coral loss from acute thermal stress events suggest that they need to be complemented with policies aimed at reducing the activities responsible for climate change. © 2012 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,1561-1570,,5,18,,Global Change Biol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,acclimation; Acclimation; Anthozoa; climate change; Climate change; Conservation; conservation management; Coral; coral reef; ecosystem resilience; marine park; Marine protected areas; population decline; Resilience; Resistance; sea surface temperature; temperature anomaly; temperature effect,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Our study aimed to characterize these ocean temperature patterns at biologically relevant scales. Location Global, with a focus on coral reefs. Methods We created a 4-km resolution, 21-year global ocean temperature anomaly (deviations from long-term means) database to quantify the spatial and temporal characteristics of temperature anomalies related to both coral bleaching and disease. Then we tested how patterns varied in several key metrics of disturbance severity, including anomaly frequency, magnitude, duration and size. Results Our analyses found both global variation in temperature anomalies and fine-grained spatial variability in the frequency, duration and magnitude of temperature anomalies.However, we discovered that even during major climatic events with strong spatial signatures, like the El Nińo-Southern Oscillation, areas that had high numbers of anomalies varied between years. In addition, we found that 48% of bleaching-related anomalies and 44% of disease-related anomalies were less than 50 km2, much smaller than the resolution of most models used to forecast climate changes. Main conclusions The fine-scale variability in temperature anomalies has several key implications for understanding spatial patterns in coral bleaching- and disease-related anomalies as well as for designing protected areas to conserve coral reefs in a changing climate. Spatial heterogeneity in temperature anomalies suggests that certain reefs could be targeted for protection because they exhibit differences in thermal stress.However, temporal variability in anomalies could complicate efforts to protect reefs, because high anomalies in one year are not necessarily predictive of future patterns of stress. Together, our results suggest that temperature anomalies related to coral bleaching and disease are likely to be highly heterogeneous and could produce more localized impacts of climate change. © 2010 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,397-411,,3,19,,Global Ecol.

Several studies have evaluated different communication measures in nature area case studies, but rarely are these measures compared across contexts. We systematically map the literature guided by the question, what is the evidence base of on-site communication in outdoor recreation to change human behavior towards a more sustainable direction? Taking vulnerable natural areas as our starting point, we map distribution and abundance of communication measures, study design and outcome-related themes. Methods: The target population for our mapping review (hereafter review) are outdoor recreationists and nature-based tourists who visit natural or near-natural settings. We will examine the studies that have crafted written, oral and visual intervention measures to change behavior by using persuasion, education and information instead of legal restrictions or bans. Some examples of challenges addressed with communication measures are proper waste disposal, using designated trails, minimizing wear and tear at campsites, avoid disturbing wildlife, and encouraging appropriate and safe behavior. No geographic restrictions will be applied but we will focus on protected areas. We will search publication databases for peer-reviewed published articles using internet and specialist searches to identify grey literature in English. We will screen first by title, followed by abstract and finally full text. For each article selected for full-text screening, metadata will be extracted on key variables of interest. The extracted data from the coding will be used to group and compare the studies to reveal knowledge gaps and knowledge clusters. We will briefly describe findings from the included studies. The review will help identify what type of human behavior researchers have addressed with communication in nature management and conservation.

However, these conservation zones are frequently established without adequate knowledge of the movement patterns of the species they are designed to protect. Understanding movement and foraging patterns of species in dynamic and diverse habitats can allow managers to develop more effective conservation plans. Threatened lemurs in Madagascar are an example where management plans and protected areas are typically created to encompass large, extant forests rather than consider the overall resource needs of the target species. Methods: To gain an understanding of golden-crowned sifaka (Propithecus tattersalli) movement patterns, including space use and habitat selection across their range of inhabited forest types, we combined behavior data with Dynamic Brownian Bridge Movement Models and Resource Selection Functions. We also examined the influence of abiotic, biotic, and anthropogenic factors on home range size, movement rates, and foraging patterns. Results: We found that home range size and movement rates differed between seasons, with increased core area size and movement in the rainy season. Forest type also played a role in foraging behavior with sifaka groups in the humid forest avoiding roads in both seasons, groups in the dry deciduous forest avoiding road networks in the rainy season, and groups in the moderate evergreen forest displaying no selection or avoidance of road networks while foraging. Conclusion: Our study illustrates the importance of studying primate groups across seasons and forest types, as developing conservation plans from a single snapshot can give an inaccurate assessment of their natural behavior and resources needs of the species. More specifically, by understanding how forest type influences golden-crowned sifaka movement and foraging behavior, conservation management plans can be made to the individual forest types inhabited (dry deciduous, moderate evergreen, humid, littoral, etc.), rather than the region as a whole. © 2022, The Author(s).",,,,1,10,,Mov.

Wildlife tourism can be prone to unmitigated development to promote visitor satisfaction that is all too often progressed at the cost of ecological integrity. A manager is thus faced with the dual task of enhancing the tourist experience and protecting the wildlife species. Accordingly, this mandate requires research into how tourists would respond to proposed wildlife-management plans. 2. This study examines the heterogeneity of tourist preferences for wildlife management at a stingray-feeding attraction in the Cayman Islands, using a latent class stated preference choice model. A sample of visitors to Stingray City Sandbar (SCS) evaluated hypothetical wildlife viewing experiences in a discrete choice experiment. Its scenarios were characterized by seven attributes such as animal-feeding and handling rules, ecological outcomes, social crowding, and management cost (defined as a conservation access fee). 3. The latent class segmentation identified two groups in the population: approximately 68% preferred the implementation of fairly strict management rules, while the other 32% valued more the maintenance of status quo with its intensive human}wildlife interactions. Despite the differences between the 'pro-management' and the 'pro-current' segments, both exhibited a preference for the continuation of feeding and handling the stingrays (albeit at different levels of intensity) suggesting that one effective way to implement any management actions is to alter the promotional and marketing strategies for SCS. Other survey questions on trip experience, conservation values, and socio-demographics were used to define these classes further, with the main distinguishing trait being the level of concern for potential impacts occurring at SCS. The discrepancies between the two segments became most obvious when calculating their respective market shares of support for alternative management strategies. 4. This approach to determining visitor preferences can help explain how the various segments will be affected by management options, and therefore can provide the basis for developing feasible strategies that will assist wildlife managers in maximizing tourist satisfaction while achieving wildlife-protection goals. © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,194-208,,2,19,,Aquatic Conserv.

Human-induced activities, including installation of NbS, are governed by legislative requirements (e.g. Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA)), especially when such activities occur in Marine Protected Areas (MPA's). A correct and thorough description of the legislative framework governing the application and development of NbS is therefore essential. The Drivers-Activities-Pressures-State change-Impacts (on human Welfare)-Responses (using Measures) or DAPSI(W)R(M) framework is valuable when environmental assessment procedures include a NbS, as well as when policy and industry require guidance for the practical application of a NbS concept. In this study, we applied the DAPSI(W)R(M) framework to the Coastbusters approach, in which mussel beds (Mytilus edulis) and tubeworm aggregations (Lanice conchilega) are installed in the Belgian part of the North Sea with the aim of improving coastal resilience and maritime infrastructure works. Within the context of the Coastbusters approach, the various elements of the DAPSI(W)R(M) framework were elucidated. Coastal defense is a driver, with activities including the integration of coastal infrastructure and aquaculture practices. Pressures related to these activities on benthic habitats were described using the MarESA sensitivity approach. State change assessments were performed based on the various marine regulations (e.g. Marine Strategy Framework Directive, Habitat Directive, Water Framework Directive) which together outline a precise set of criteria and indicators designed to assess the sustainability and health of ecosystems. The present study provides a detailed framework for the environmental evaluation of seaward NbS, from state changes to impacts on human welfare. Three quantitative estimations of ecosystem service indicators (coastal protection, carbon retention and water quality (N) regulation) were used, with the indicators quantified by in-situ measurements and data from literature. Subsequently, the 10-tenets approach for taking measures (e.g. use of biodegradable material, local species, etc.) was used to develop responses that facilitate the optimal implementation of NbS. The approach outlined in this study can be used as a guide for stakeholders as they move through the environmental evaluation processes that are required for successful development of a seaward NbS. Our results underscore the importance of a favorable institutional environment for NbS and suggest that public acceptance and stakeholder involvement play a crucial role in successful implementation.

To determine the most suitable landfill site, an analytical hierarchy process (AHP) was combined with a geographic information system (GIS) to examine several criteria, such as geology/hydrogeology, land use, slope, height, aspect and distance from settlements, surface waters, roads, and protected areas (ecologic, scientific or historic). Each criterion was evaluated with the aid of AHP and mapped by GIS. Data were assorted into four suitability classes within the study area, i.e., high, moderate, low and very low suitability areas, which represented 3.24%, 7.55%, 12.70% and 2.81%, of the study area, respectively. Additionally, 73.70% was determined to be completely unsuitable for a landfill site. As a result, two candidate landfill sites are suggested and discussed. The final decision for landfill site selection will require more detailed field studies. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,2037-2046,,11,30,,Waste Manage.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"analytic method; analytical hierarchy process; Analytical hierarchy process; article; Beysehir Lake; case study; catchment; Catchment area; Catchments; Complex Processes; Conservation of Natural Resources; Decision Support Techniques; decomposition; Drinking water; Ecology; Environment; environmental impact; Environmental Monitoring; Equipment Design; Field studies; Final decision; Fresh water lakes; freshwater environment; geographic information system; Geographic information systems; Geographic Information Systems; Geography; geology; GIS; Hierarchical systems; Lakes; Land fill; landfill; Landfill site; Landfill site selection; Laws and legislation; Models, Statistical; municipal solid waste; Municipal solid waste; Potable water; priority journal; Protected areas; Refuse Disposal; regulatory approach; Reservoirs (water); Runoff; sea surface waters; site selection; Site selection; Solid wastes; Study areas; Turkey; Turkey (republic); waste disposal; Waste disposal; waste management; water flow; water quality; water supply",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We present a mixed-method empirical analysis that combines participatory mapping, focus group interviews, and individual semi-structured interviews with over 200 individuals from various stakeholder groups. The findings point to two divergent governance realities. One reality is the formal co-management institution – which is tasked with governing a defined space with specific rules, including direct and indirect stakeholder involvement. Another governance reality is that of traditional uses and norms, where, for example, cultural practices contribute to the protection of spawning areas or the conservation of species. Yet another reality is that negotiated in situ by actors who may be from diverse cultural backgrounds operating in an area. At Joal Fadiouth, a key point of misalignment between these realities is that neither traditional authorities nor traditional migrant users of the MPA are represented in the formal decision-making body. This undermines the legitimacy of formal co-management in the eyes of both locals and migrant users. In addition, formal governance has largely failed to consider the vast array of existing cultural and traditional uses of coastal and marine resources, as well as the inclusion of more diverse stakeholders, such as faith-based organizations and women, who are locally important and influential users. As a result, formal zoning and laws do not conform to local expectations, leading to perceptions of illegitimacy that motivate illicit income strategies and a lack of investment into co-management to showcase discontent. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,155,,Mar.

To integrate such information in the selection of conservation strategies (ex situ vs. in situ) and to evaluate current European efforts in the conservation of forest genetic resources. Location: Mediterranean Basin and European Atlantic coast. Methods: With the objective of preserving the overall genetic diversity of our two target species, we individually assess each of their genetic groups. We fit a species distribution model and project it to current climate and 42 different future climatic predictions. We create future suitability maps to assess risk of habitat loss based on the number of future climate projections that predict suitability. According to this assessment on the risk of habitat loss, we propose suitable conservation strategies. Results: We found areas suitable for in situ conservation for most of the genetic groups, the exception being the central–eastern–southern Iberian genetic groups of maritime pine and the Moroccan genetic group of Aleppo pine which required ex situ conservation. In the current European conservation network, three genetic groups for maritime pine and two for Aleppo pine remain unrepresented, and the representation of the rest is unbalanced. Main conclusions: We provide a tool to support conservation management of forest trees, an increasingly important task given the negative impact of climate change on forest ecosystems. We also provide a framework to increase the efficiency of the European conservation network: (i) exposure assessment should be considered as a requirement for a population to become a dynamic conservation unit (DCU); and (ii) as illustrated with our two target species, the selection of DCUs should represent all existing genetic groups. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,507-516,,5,23,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,Aleppo pine; Atlantic Coast [Europe]; CHANGE IMPACTS; climate change; Coniferophyta; coniferous tree; conservation biology; conservation management; DISTRIBUTION MODELS; DIVERSITY; DYNAMIC CONSERVATION; FOREST TREES; genetic resource; genetic variation; geographical distribution; habitat loss; maritime pine; Mediterranean Sea; NORWAY SPRUCE; PHENOTYPIC PLASTICITY; Pinus halepensis; Pinus pinaster; PINUS-HALEPENSIS; POPULATIONS; species conservation; species distribution models; SUITABLE HABITAT; vulnerability,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Preserving genetic and phenotypic diversity can help safeguard not only biodiversity but also cultural and economic values. 2. Here, we present data that emerged from Indigenous-led research at the intersection of evolution and ecology to support conservation planning of a culturally salient, economically valuable, and rare phenotypic variant. We addressed three conservation objectives for the white-phased ‘Spirit bear’ polymorphism, a rare and endemic white-coated phenotype of black bear (Ursus americanus) in Kitasoo/Xai'xais and Gitga'at Territories and beyond in coastal British Columbia, Canada. First, we used non-invasively collected hair samples (n = 385 bears over ?18,000 km2) to assess the spatial variation in the frequency of the allele that controls the white-coloured morph (mc1r). Second, we compared our observed allele frequencies at mc1r with those expected under Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium. Finally, we examined how well current protected areas in the region aligned with spatial hotspots of Spirit bear alleles. 3. We found that landscape-level allele frequency was lower than previously reported. For example our systematic sampling estimated a frequency of 0.25 (95% CI [0.13, 0.41]) on Gribbell Island compared with the previously reported estimate of 0.56. Also, in contrast with previous reports, we failed to detect a statistically significant departure from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium at mc1r, which calls into question the previously posited role of homozygote gene flow, heterozygote disadvantage, and positive assortative mating in the maintenance of this polymorphism. Finally, we found a discrepancy between the placement of protected areas and the 90th percentile hotspots (upper 10% of all estimated values) of Spirit bear alleles, with ?50% of hotspots falling outside of protected areas. 4. These results provide new insight into hypotheses related to the maintenance of this rare polymorphism, and directly relevant information to support evidence-based opportunities for Indigenous Nations of the area to attend to gaps in conservation planning. © 2020 The Authors.

Individual malaria interventions provide only partial protection in most epidemiological situations. Thus, there is a need to investigate whether combining interventions provides added benefit in reducing mortality and morbidity from malaria. The potential benefits of combining IPT in children (IPTc) with home management of malaria (HMM) was investigated. Methods. During the 2008 malaria transmission season, 1,277 children under five years of age resident in villages within the rural Farafenni demographic surveillance system (DSS) in North Bank Region, The Gambia were randomized to receive monthly IPTc with a single dose of sulphadoxine/pyrimethamine (SP) plus three doses of amodiaquine (AQ) or SP and AQ placebos given by village health workers (VHWs) on three occasions during the months of September, October and November, in a double-blind trial. Children in all study villages who developed an acute febrile illness suggestive of malaria were treated by VHWs who had been taught how to manage malaria with artemether-lumefantrine (Coartem). The primary aims of the project were to determine whether IPTc added significant benefit to HMM and whether VHWs could effectively combine the delivery of both interventions. Results. The incidence of clinical attacks of malaria was very low in both study groups. The incidence rate of malaria in children who received IPTc was 0.44 clinical attacks per 1,000 child months at risk while that for control children was 1.32 per 1,000 child months at risk, a protective efficacy of 66% (95% CI -23% to 96%; p = 0.35). The mean (standard deviation) haemoglobin concentration at the end of the malaria transmission season was similar in the two treatment groups: 10.2 (1.6) g/dL in the IPTc group compared to 10.3 (1.5) g/dL in the placebo group. Coverage with IPTc was high, with 94% of children receiving all three treatments during the study period. Conclusion. Due to the very low incidence of malaria, no firm conclusion can be drawn on the added benefit of IPTc in preventing clinical episodes of malaria among children who had access to HMM in The Gambia. However, the study showed that VHWs can successfully combine provision of HMM with provision of IPTc. Trial Registration.

However, achieving the aforementioned goals is extremely difficult without strong support, commitment from host communities, and effective coordination among ecotourism stakeholders. This study sought to explore the perceptions of various stakeholders regarding the impacts and importance of ecotourism and their willingness to pay for ecotourism development and biodiversity conservation at Chilika Lake, Odisha. We conducted semi-structured interview of 250 respondents in different areas adjacent to Chilika Lake such as Balugaon, Barakul, Pathara and Khalikot. To grasp the above objectives, we used the contingent valuation method (CVM) and the Double Hurdle Model to identify the determinants of willingness to accept (WTA) and willingness to pay (WTP). Simple descriptive statistics were used to analyse the perception of ecotourism impacts. The study found that local people in the study region perceived both positive and negative impacts of ecotourism. There was sufficient evidence of conflicts of interest in resource use, limited community involvement in ecotourism planning and decision-making, and low economic benefits. However, the study also found that instead of a range of negative impacts, a variety of stakeholders expressed a willingness to develop ecotourism with the prospect of improving their various needs. The results of the empirical double hurdle model showed that the variables of education, total income, importance of the lake, level of awareness, and occupation significantly impacted the willingness to accept the offered payment. On the other hand, age, marital status, education, total income, importance of the lake, and level of awareness have a significant influence on the willingness of different stakeholders to pay the offered amount. A detailed understanding of ecotourism, consideration of socioeconomic and demographic characteristics, and the development of ecotourism products and services enables various stakeholders to adjust their behaviour towards sustainability, and can contribute to an effective information and planning process which may lead to greater promotion of ecotourism. © 2023",,497-513,,3,11,,Int.

The Cape Roux marine protected area (MPA), in the Mediterranean Sea, was established in December 2003 for the management of artisanal fisheries and enhancement target fish stocks. Monitoring of littoral fish assemblages (0-30 m depth) in this zone began one year after the MPA was set up. The survey was conducted at 6 stations, located inside and outside the MPA, using three methods: underwater visual census (UVC) on transects, UVC using a new fish assemblage survey technique (FAST), and experimental net fishing performed by a fisherman. The FAST indices were derived from visual censuses, performed along a random pathway, scoring species on a presence/absence basis and size on a 2-class basis. Indices were calculated seasonally, by applying ""weights"" according to species and size. This study presents results obtained between October 2005 and June 2007. In the protected area, the experimental fishing yielded significantly higher abundance and species richness, and the FAST method highlighted a decrease in seasonal fluctuations. These two complementary methods (UVC and experimental fishing) revealed the early changes in fish assemblages in response to protection. The FAST method employed here seems to be relevant for the study of artisanal fishery target fishes, as a low-cost and sensitive UVC method. © 2008 EDP Sciences IFREMER IRD.",,297-305,,,21,,Aquatic Living Resour.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 3 Journal Abbreviation: Aquatic Living Resour.,,,,abundance; artisanal fishery; Cape Roux; Eurasia; Europe; exploitation; Fish diversity; France; marine park; Marine protected area; Mediterranean Sea; overfishing; Pisces; Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur; sampling; Small-scale fishery; species richness; Underwater visual census methods; Var; Western Europe,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The ecosystem-based planning and management approach has developed over the past decades with the goal of reducing this threat by defining planning and management of uses in a way that mitigates negative effects on ecosystem structure and function. For oceans and coasts, marine spatial planning (MSP) can further aid the implementation of ecosystem-based management, a widely accepted tenet of planning for the marine environment. It can do so by allocating different uses of space in a way that reduces conflicts for the benefit of the environment. Here, we propose an approach to MSP that incorporates principles of reconciliation ecology for the planning of marine (nearshore) enclosures. The approach supports conservation within and around anthropogenic elements outside of marine protected areas. Since human activity typically involves some damage to natural ecosystem, this research contributes by proposing a way to incorporate ecosystem modeling for MSP that includes human activity. Examining areas of human activity under different management scenarios allows identification of possible trends in human-natural ecosystem interactions. Using such an approach increases marine conservation opportunities, and directs educated and cautious MSP in ways that allow implementation of an ecosystem-based approach. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.",,595-600,,,120,,Ecol.

Efforts to address the designation of OECMs include further definition of the term and the development of typologies of OECMs and of screening tools which can be applied to identify potential OECMs. While the designation process of OECMs is still unclear, especially in the marine environment, we suggest a decision process which can be used by planners to identify and designate specific types of OECMs as part of the marine spatial planning (MSP) process. These OECMs are areas where marine communities benefit from access restrictions established due to safety or security concerns. We applied the suggested process on two case studies of the Italian Northern Adriatic and the Israeli Mediterranean seas. When consideration of OECMs comes at the expense of designating marine protected areas, OECMs can become controversial. However, OECM designation can promote achievement of marine conservation goals and of ecosystem-based management of uses. Therefore, we suggest that while spatial targets for conservation should focus mainly on areas dedicated for marine reserves, OECMs, especially of the type for ancillary conservation discussed in this paper, can be achieved through MSP. Using MSP for the designation of recognized OECMs may significantly promote marine conservation goals in unexpected ways and may ¬help realize ecosystem-based management. © 2018",,1753-1763,,,651,,Sci.

Canada is a signatory nation that has adopted, and exceeded, the UN Aichi biodiversity target to protect 10% of coastal and marine areas through marine protected areas or “other effective area-based conservation measures” (OECMs) by 2020. However, the science of OECMs as contributors to biodiversity conservation is relatively young and their definition and efficacy testing continue to evolve. Here, we examine whether areas closed to fishing on the Scotian Shelf in Atlantic Canada, where the groundfish community had collapsed in the early 1990s, have the potential to serve as OECMs for groundfish recovery. Using long-term research survey data, we show that three long-term area-based fishing fleet closures did not enhance per capita population growth rates of the majority of 24 common groundfish species. At a regional scale, 10 out of 24 species are currently at less than 50% of their pre-collapse (1979–1992) biomass, reflecting a sustained diminished productivity, even though fishing mortality has been drastically reduced through a moratorium in 1993. Additional measures are needed to protect severely depleted groundfish, especially when the causes of continued diminished productivity are still largely unresolved. The importance of OECMs as a risk-averse approach toward sustainability is globally accepted and they can be considered a tool toward the overarching UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG-14).

Most rural communities in this region continue to rely on fire to manage natural resources for subsistence needs, yet relatively few detailed studies of local fire knowledge and practices exist. The long history of anthropogenic fire in southern Africa suggests that traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) of fire could provide further insight into location-specific anthropogenic contributions to fire-savanna interactions. This study used an ethnographic approach to investigate how local people think about and manage fire as part of their daily activities in two rural communities in southern Mozambique. Residents use fire for a range of livelihood activities and identify both controlled and uncontrolled anthropogenic fire sources. Fire regimes are presented for five common livelihood activities including frequency, seasonality, area, and type of habitat burned. Comparisons between historic and contemporary fires revealed decreases in the number of controlled burns and consequent increases in the size and number of wildfires, but no changes in the purposes for conducting controlled burns or the methods people used to conduct burns. Community fire regulations aim to reduce personal and communal property destruction, as well as protect locally valuable biodiversity. The results highlight the importance in accessing indigenous fire TEK for understanding anthropogenic contributions to fire regimes. Furthermore, they demonstrate that despite different worldviews, indigenous and western fire experts share a common goal in maintaining regional biodiversity.",,43-59,,2,6,,Fire Ecol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Anthropogenic burns; anthropogenic effect; biodiversity; conservation management; Controlled burns; fire management; Fire regimes; landscape ecology; Livelihoods; Maputaland; Mozambique; prescribed burning; protected area; rural area; savanna; Southern africa; Traditional ecological knowledge; traditional knowledge,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Surveys on habitat suitability of vulnerable species and integration of protected areas have raised alarm over potential species extinction and geographical isolation of populations. Reducing the threats of human activities on sensitive terrestrial and coastal ecosystems requires integrated planning and management of terrestrial and coastal protected areas, however many of these areas have been selected and managed independently. Selecting coastal protected areas network require a systematic conservation planning approach, to reduce the development impacts on sensitive habitats. Therefore, this study aimed to identify an optimized integrative network of terrestrial and coastal protected areas in southeast Iran. An attempt was made to maximize biodiversity conservation, reduce the isolation of populations, and increase the resilience of the region's natural habitats to new development plans by including coastal habitats meeting the requirements of key species. Firstly, suitable habitats for seven key species were simulated by Species Distribution Models (SDMs) performed via Generalized Linear Model (GLM), Generalized Boosted Model (GBM), Random Forest (RF), and Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) models fitted with 20 ecological and anthropogenic variables. A habitat suitability map was produced by integrating the SDM-derived habitat suitability maps with the suitable extents identified for egg-laying green sea turtle and potential habitat for aquatic and semi-aquatic birds. An attempt was then made for selecting new terrestrial and coastal protected areas using the simulated annealing algorithm under six scenarios. All SDMs exhibited promising performances in predicting the distribution of suitable habitats with AUC values of above 0.8 and the discrimination power of GBM and RF was higher than that of the other SDMs. In total, more than 34 percent of the study area, along the coastline, was categorized as sensitive or extremely sensitive habitat. An east-west habitat corridor presently unprotected playing an important role in connecting habitats needs to be safeguarded to maintain regional biodiversity. Moreover, our study revealed that the majority of suitable habitats with high potential for sensitive species are not currently protected by the existing protected area network. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,756-765,,,103,,Ecol.

However, little is known about the natural and anthropogenic factors that structure fish biodiversity of sandy beaches, one of the largest and most socio-economically valuable nearshore habitats due to their endemic fauna, economic importance and cultural relevance. Here, we investigated how environmental variables and urbanization affect taxonomic and functional diversity of nearshore fish assemblages to provide general biodiversity patterns that can serve as baseline information for management plans when considering conservation prioritization. Location: Southeast Brazil. Methods: We surveyed fish communities at 77 sites along 150 km of coastline with different natural features and degrees of human influence using a combination of seine nets and surf-BRUVS. We used generalized additive models (GAMs) to investigate the influence of environmental variables and urbanization on taxonomic and functional diversity of resident fish assemblages. Main results: We found that significant breaker wave height was the most important environmental variable in explaining the taxonomic and functional diversity of fish assemblages. The effects of increasing wave height were mostly negative, except for piscivorous fishes, which were most abundant at high energy sites, and for benthic and zoobenthivorous species, which were most abundant at sites with intermediate wave exposure. The latter species were also associated with higher chlorophyll-a contributing to increased taxonomic richness and abundance. Further, anthropogenic impacts generally reduced diversity, with highest diversity only observed at the most pristine sites. Main conclusions: Our results demonstrate that both natural environmental variation and human activities structure the fish assemblages of sandy beach surf zones, affecting species that possess specific functional traits differently. These drivers should therefore be considered simultaneously in appointing protected areas in order to preserve a diversity of organisms and functional traits integral to productive beach ecosystems. © 2021 The Authors.

Many environmental parameters affect the behavior of the earth's climate system and its terrestrial components. Effects of land use and land cover changes have direct influences on climate changes. Now, climate change is known widely as a global health problem that has adverse impacts on natural and man-made environments. Assessment of the trend of land use changes is a process that leads to understanding the interaction between humans and the environment. This problem is more important in the sensitive areas and spatially on wetlands. The hydrological and bio-geological functions of many wetlands depend on ground and surface water ecosystems as well as its place in landscape. Therefore, the development and changes in contiguous ecosystems particularly change in water flow can cause damage and even destroy the wetland. This study aims to identify and analyze the environmental changes and pressures on Choghakhor Wetland landscape. This wetland is located between 50° 52? to 50° 56?E and 31° 54? to 31° 56?N in height 2270 meters above mean sea level. Choghakhor Wetland located in Zagros Mountains, with area of 1600 hectares, has freshwater resources. It is located in non-protected area in prohibited hunting zone that 2500 ha proposed for refugee site. Materials and Methods: In order to assess the trends of changes in this study, land use changes and Climate change parameters were investigated in a period of ten years. Then, by environmental pressures analysis, some strategies are presented to reduce environmental impacts. In Fig. 1 stages of the research are presented and described in the following. • Step 1. Use of the Landsat-7 satellite images (ETM+) with suitable timely coincidence in 2003 and 2013 for land use/cover change assessment. • Step 2. Application of the maximum likelihood classification and assessment of classification accuracy with kappa and overall accuracy in ENVI 4.7. • Step 3. Evaluation of the trend of climate change factors such as, the average amount of annual precipitation and temperature. Characterizing the drought degrees with the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) by data of effective stations in the study area. • Step 4. Analysis of the environmental changes and pressures by considering the results of climatic trend and land use changes. • Step 5. Presenting management strategies to reduce environmental impacts of land use change and climate change on wetland landscape and its surrounding environment. Results and Discussion The aforementioned steps were performed for landscape of Choghakhor Wetland. Detecting the land use and land cover changes in 2003 and 2013 indicate five distinct classes, including: pasture and forest (cultivated and non-cultivated), bare land, man-made (settlements and roads) and water (snow and water) results (Fig. 2 and 3). (Figure Presented) The results of image classification and remote sensing process in 2003 and 2013 are presented in Table 1. Data processing in this period represent that increase in area of cultivated and man-made lands are 18 and 26.3 percent and decrease in water body, pasture and forest and bare lands are 51.4, 4.2, and 2 percent. The results of the classification accuracy measurement were estimated on 89% and 64% in 2003 and 93% and 68% in 2013 for overall accuracy and Kappa coefficient, respectively. The most effective meteorology data (Overgan Station records) in wetland area in 2012 illustrated that the amount of standard precipitation index is -0.89, which confirmed occurrence of a drought. The probability of drought occurrence is predicted by 41.7% which is in accordance with previous year records. The investigation on climatic change elements showed an increasing trend in average annual temperature with a sharp and irregular fluctuation of rainfall in the recent years. Conclusions: Investigation on the trend of thirty-year records of climatic elements and the obtained results by satellite monitoring of landscape illustrated 50% decline in water resources amount. Declining rainfalls, rise of a few degrees in the annual average temperatures in the region, and the recent drought, as confirmed by the remote sensing processing result, show water shortage is in expended trend. Despite, land use changes played an important role in the situation during water shortage period. The agriculture development has imposed an enormous environmental pressure by excessive consumption of water, fertilizers and pesticides. Then, drying of springs, reduction of groundwater level, increase in organic and inorganic contaminants, and finally enrichment (Table Presented) and declining of dissolved oxygen in wetlands is a description of the occurred situation due to cascading effects of land use change simultaneously with the climate change which could be effective on ecosystem functions of wetland, such as water purification and regulation. Increase in man-made areas in terms of urban settlements and tourist areas indicated that some pressures have led to decline in permeable surfaces and groundwater recharge, habitat loss, and reduction in control ability of hazardous pollution and detoxification could raise some disorders in exposition of this wetland ecosystem functions. While increasing pressure is occurred, climate change set regional water resources in critical condition and land use change add an irrational severity by such effects. According to adverse changes of Choghakhor wetland landscape, if the current situation trend continues, the wetland will be faced with some irreparable threats. In such a situation, it seems necessary to ponder to proper programs for logically exit from current crisis and preventing the environmental diminish. Leaning the performed analysis, the strategies to reduce environmental impacts and mitigation of drought in the study area are provided as follows: • Developing the conservation plan and combining them with the integrated wetland management plan in National Development Plans in order to preserve wetland ecosystem functions, • Modifying the cultivation methods, reducing the consumption of chemical fertilizers and pesticides and awareness about the proper way in their use, using the efficient irrigation systems, licensing the drilling and operation wells with accurate specialized measurements, and awareness about their environmental effects, • Identifying the natural drainage paths and leaving open the permeable parts in residential areas, in order to reduce the probability of flooding in cities and preservation of hydrologic balance in the drainage basin, • Dealing with drought losses and declining its effects by applying strategies such as optimum selection and land use change, modifying the culture alternation system, and groundwater levels control.",,631-643,,3,40,,J.

The solution to the problem is found in the form of a set of linear protection elements, for example, shields, gaskets, and filters. The objective function of the optimization problem is the cost of a set of utilized protection elements. The following algorithms were used to solve the optimization problem: ""Exhaustive search"" algorithm, genetic algorithm, and the algorithm based on ""Coordinate descent"" method. We considered two variants of defining the descent direction applied in the algorithm based on ""Coordinate descent"" method: 1) by the random selection; 2) by the use of the values of ""Protection Efficiency-To-Cost"" coefficient. This coefficient is determined by the protection element cost and partial protection index of the element. To choose the most suitable algorithm for solving the problem, the comparative analysis of the results obtained using all the considered algorithms was performed. The results of the comparison demonstrate that the use of the algorithm based on ""Coordinate descent"" method with ""Protection Efficiency-To- Cost"" coefficient make it possible to find an appropriate solution and reduce the computational burden as compared to the other considered algorithms. © 2019 IEEE.",,226-231,,,,,,,,,,,Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: EMC Europe - Int.

Considering the characteristics of river-type reservoir with various inflow modes and large topographic fluctuation, we presented a location selection method for ecological barrier of river type reservoir based on flux analysis with the removal function of non-point source pollution of water ecological barrier. Using this method, we examined the ecological barrier location in the Three Gorges Reservoir area of China. The results showed that the role of ecological barrier for water in the study area could not be brought into full play according to the design plan of 100 m width along the coast of the Three Gorges Reservoir area. The zone of optimal function accounted for 11% of the design area, and ineffective zone accounted for 10% of the design area. 79% of the total nitrogen and 93% of the total phosphorus were concentrated in the area accounting for 21% of the total ecological barrier area and entered the reservoir. According to the flux of pollutants and their process of flow and flux, we extracted the confluence area of pollutants with high flux and area with high pollutant concentration. Based on the protection target, the ecological engineering measures to reduce the total pollutants and ensure the standard reaching of pollutant concentration were carried out respectively. This method, with full consideration of the influence of terrain on pollutant flux and classification of the key protected areas in water ecological barrier, could effectively solve the problem of location design of water ecological barrier in river-type water. © 2019, Science Press.

The optimal planning becomes a multi-objective non-deterministic polynomial-time (NP)-hard problem when searching for a quantitative solution and subjecting to spatial constraint. In this paper, a swarm intelligence algorithm, artificial bee colony (ABC), is introduced to solve the problem together with techniques of remote sensing (RS) and geographic information science (GIS). The optimal objective is to maximize both the ecological suitability and spatial compactness of selected protection area. Significant improvements have been made to extend the ABC algorithm applicable for ecological protected area planning in discrete domain. Then, the procedure of integrating RS, GIS, and ABC to solve the multi-objective spatial optimization problem is formed.

Understanding biogeographic patterns and driving mechanisms of key components of the MFW is one of the central topics in current marine ecology. Investigations were conducted along an 1,100-km horizontal gradient and in the full-water column vertical gradient of the oligotrophic tropical western Pacific Ocean. High-throughput sequencing and association networking methods were used to analyze the community structure and interspecies interactions of MFW. The structure of MFW significantly differed with depths, but not across horizontal gradients. Bacteria and microeukaryotes were interconnected and had more predominantly positive and negative linkages in the aphotic layers. Key components of MFW exhibited similar biogeographic patterns and driving mechanisms. Geographic distance exerted minimal effects on the distribution patterns of the microbial food web, while environmental factors played more important roles, especially for temperature and inorganic nutrients. Stochastic processes were more important in the microbial food webs of the 5–200 m layer than the >500 m layer, and drift explained the majority of stochastic processes. Moreover, only a weak but not significant driving force for North Equatorial Current on the east–west connectivity of the microbial food web was found in the upper layers.

WWF is bridging this gap by putting extensive spatial data into an easy to use online mapping environment, to allow visualization, manipulation and analysis of large data sets by any user. Consistent, reliable and repeatable ecosystem monitoring information for priority eco-regions is needed to increase transparency in WWF's global conservation work, to measure conservation impact, and to provide communications with the general public and organization members. Currently, much of this monitoring and evaluation data is isolated, incompatible, or inaccessible and not readily usable or available for those without specialized software or knowledge. Launched in 2013 by WWF Netherlands and WWF Germany, the Global Observation and Biodiversity Information Portal (GLOBIL) is WWF's new platform to unite, centralize, standardize and visualize geo-spatial data and information from more than 150 active GIS users worldwide via cloud-based ArcGIS Online. GLOBIL is increasing transparency, providing baseline data for monitoring and evaluation while communicating impacts and conservation successes to the public. GLOBIL is currently being used in the worldwide marine campaign as an advocacy tool for establishing more marine protected areas, and a monitoring interface to track the progress towards ocean protection goals. In the Kavango-Zambezi (KAZA) Transfrontier Conservation area, local partners are using the platform to monitor land cover changes, barriers to species migrations, potential human-wildlife conflict and local conservation impacts in vast wildlife corridor. In East Africa, an early warning system is providing conservation practitioners with real-time alerts of threats particularly to protected areas and World Heritage Sites by industrial extractive activities. And for globally consistent baseline ecosystem monitoring, MODIS-derived data are being combined with local information to provide visible advocacy for conservation.

The country is placed among the top ten natural resource-rich nations and with a high level of endemism. The varied edaphic, climatic, and topographic variability has resulted in a diversity of ecosystems covering forests, wetlands, deserts, coastal and marine ecosystems, and grasslands. About 703 globally threatened animal species are distributed in its various ecosystems. Of the total threatened species distributed in India, 92 species were classified as Critically Endangered, 219 as Endangered, and 389 species as Vulnerable. A large network of Protected Areas (903) has been kept aside for in situ conservation throughout the spatial extent of the country. The National Wildlife Action Plan 2017-2031 of India aims at landscape-level planning while mitigating climate change impacts on wildlife species. The major conservation and management issues for wildlife in India include human-wildlife conflict, habitat degradation, conversion of forests to other land uses, climate change, invasive species infestation, and pollution.

However, lack of empirical data on long-ranging carnivores may lead to erroneous decisions in formulating management plans. The Indian Grey wolf (Canis lupus pallipes) is known to be distributed in the vast areas of the Indian subcontinent. However, the actual population estimates are available only for Gujarat, Karnataka, Rajasthan and Bihar. Whereas, its distribution, population and habitat ecology is poorly known from the eastern region. Hence, this article aimed to evaluate the habitat suitability along with landscape connectivity for the species over the two major biogeographic provinces of India, i.e., Lower Gangetic Plains (7b) and Chhota Nagpur Plateau (6b). The present model with significantly higher Area under the curve (AUC) value of 0.981, indicates its accuracy in predicting the suitable habitats and identifying biological corridors by using environmental, topological and anthropogenic variables. Precipitation of the driest quarter and the precipitation of seasonality were the two best performing variables in our model, capable of explaining about 26% and 22.4% variation in the data respectively. Out of the total area i.e. 4,16,665 Km2, about 18,237 Km2 (4.37%) was found to be highly suitable area and about 3,16,803 Km2 (76.03%) areas as least suitable. The corridor analysis indicated that the habitat connectivity was highest in the border line area of the two biotic provinces located in the south-eastern zone via districts of Purba Singhbhum and Paschim Singhbhum of Jharkhand state and Bankura and West Midnapore districts of West Bengal state. Among the Protected Areas (PAs), natural corridors exist connecting the Simlipal National Park (NP)-Satkosia Wildlife Santuray (WLS), Dalma ranges of Chotta Nagpur plateau along with Badrama WLS, Khulasuni WLS and Debrigarh WLS. Differential management through landscape level planning may be helpful in securing the future of the species in the landscape. © 2019 Sharma et al.

Amongst such species, Dactylorhiza hatagirea (D.Don) Soo is a threatened, medicinal orchid endemic to Himalaya. In the present study, we utilized ensemble modelling to identify the current potential suitable habitats and predict the impacts of future climate change on the distributional range of D. hatagirea in Himachal Pradesh, an Indian State in Western Himalaya. An ensemble of eight different model was run on non-collinear bioclimatic and topographic variables to predict its current potential distribution. A further ensemble of five global circulation models, focusing on four representative concentration pathways, was utilised to select the suitable habitats in future, for the years 2050 and 2070. The main bioclimatic variables influencing the predictions of potential distribution of D. hatagirea were Mean Temperature of Warmest Quarter (Bio10), Isothermality (Bio3), Mean Temperature of Wettest Quarter (Bio8), Slope, Precipitation Seasonality (Bio15) and Mean Diurnal Range (Bio2). The results of ensemble model revealed that, under present climatic conditions, the potential current suitable habitats of D. hatagirea comprises of only 0.09% of the study region. The model predicted that compared to the current distribution, the highly suitable habitats, under various future climate scenarios, would be significantly reduced by 25.34% to 56.34% and from 22.54% to 38.03% by the years 2050 and 2070 respectively. Our study also showed that the centroid of suitable habitats of D. hatagirea will shift towards eastern side of Himachal Pradesh. As per IUCN range loss criterion A3(c), D. hatagirea would lose more than 30% of its currently occupied suitable habitat, and this can be categorized as ‘Vulnerable’. Therefore, an assisted colonization (AC) would be required in 0.21 to 5.98 and 0.56 to 7.39 new cells (each of grid size 2×2 km2) for the years 2050 and 2070 respectively, to halt the range loss below the threshold of 30% and shift it to the ‘Least Concern’ category. Further, it was found that the availability of suitable cells within existing network of protected areas (PAs) in the region are adequate and could be a better alternative to achieve conservation goals through AC. In the present study, we found that the habitats of D. hatagirea in western Himalaya are extremely vulnerable to future shifts and alterations in the climate patterns. The findings from the present study, thus, could be utilized to alleviate the threats to the survival of populations of this species by carrying out activities such as protecting the habitats, studying the unexplored populations, re-wilding and AC programmes within the PAs, for planning of conservation and management strategies. © 2022",,203-218,,,154,,S.

Overall, 6384 individuals of 118 butterfly species in 81 genera, six families and 20 subfamilies were observed. Our results indicated that the land cover type and the seasonal variability had a pronounced influence on the species richness, abundance, diversity and similarity across different sites with significantly higher values recorded for mosaic landscapes during the wet season. In contrast, the urban built-up site was more speciose with higher abundance than natural forests. Each system harboured unique species assemblages with high similarity among the sites as well as seasons.

Climate change is expected to shift climate space of many species outside existing reserve boundaries. We used climate-envelope models to examine shifts in climate space of 11 species that are representative of the Mount Hamilton Project area (MHPA) (California, U.S.A.), which includes areas within Alameda, Santa Clara, San Joaquin, Stanislaus, Merced, and San Benito counties and is in the state's Central Coast ecoregion. We used Marxan site-selection software to determine the minimum area required as climate changes to achieve a baseline conservation goal equal to 80% of existing climate space for all species in the MHPA through 2050 and 2100. Additionally, we assessed the costs associated with use of existing conservation strategies (land acquisition and management actions such as species translocation, monitoring, and captive breeding) necessary to meet current species-conservation goals as climate changes. Meeting conservation goals as climate changes through 2050 required an additional 256,000 ha (332%) of protected area, primarily to the south and west of the MHPA. Through 2050 the total cost of land acquisition and management was estimated at US$1.67-1.79 billion, or 139-149% of the cost of achieving the same conservation goals with no climate change. To maintain 80% of climate space through 2100 required nearly 380,000 additional hectares that would cost $2.46-2.62 billion, or 209-219% of the cost of achieving the same conservation goals with no climate change. Furthermore, maintaining 80% of existing climate space within California for 27% of the focal species was not possible by 2100 because climate space for these species did not exist in the state. The high costs of conserving species as the climate changes-that we found in an assessment of one conservation project-highlights the need for tools that will aid in iterative goal setting given the uncertainty of the effects of climate change and adaptive management that includes new conservation strategies and consideration of the long-term economic costs of conservation. © 2012 Society for Conservation Biology.",,385-396,,3,26,,Conserv.

This study aims to assess the diversity and abundance of small- and medium-sized wild mammal species in Pittachhara Forest in the CHTs. A comprehensive wildlife monitoring survey was conducted in this forest using strategically placed camera traps to identify the wild species diversity, and we evaluated the activity patterns and seasonal variations for the period of February 2023 to August 2024. The camera trap identified eight species of small- and medium-sized wild mammals: the Bengal slow loris, northern pig-tailed macaque, leopard cat, large Indian civet, common palm civet, crab-eating mongoose, northern tree shrew, and black rat. The activity patterns showed distinct temporal behaviors among these wild mammals, with nocturnal activity dominating for the Bengal slow loris and leopard cat, while the northern pig-tailed macaque exhibited diurnal activity. Seasonal variations demonstrated a significant difference in increased activity among most wild mammal species throughout the summer, particularly the large Indian civet and crab-eating mongoose, likely due to favorable environmental conditions, and decreased activity in the winter (p < 0.05). The findings suggest an intricate connection between species-specific behaviors and environmental factors that influence activity patterns, with increased activity in summer and a decrease in winter, indicating that summer conditions may enhance the movement and foraging behaviors of mammals. This study underscores the necessity for continuous biodiversity monitoring followed by conservation efforts in Pittachhara Forest to reduce the threats of habitat fragmentation, human disturbances, and inadequate protection, thus protecting the survival of endangered wild mammal species and maintaining the environmental harmony of this small, protected area. © 2024 by the authors.",,,,24,14,,Animals,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,activity patterns; animal; Article; Bangladesh; bengal slow loris; Bengal slow loris; biodiversity; camera trap survey; CARNIVORE; CHITTAGONG HILL TRACTS; common palm civet; crab eating mongoose; ECOLOGY; foraging behavior; forest; indian civet; leopard; leopard cat; Macaca; mammal; mongoose; monitoring; nonhuman; pittachhara forest; Pittachhara Forest; RESOURCES; RICHNESS; seasonal variation; shrew; small- and medium-sized wild mammals; species diversity; summer; Tupaia belangeri; wildlife; winter,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

After taking into consideration spatial differences in benthic habitat, the composition of fish assemblages was found to differ between open and closed areas. The target species, Plectropomus leopardus, was approximately two times more abundant in closed areas. Furthermore, 51 % of P. leopardus were larger than the minimum legal length (MLL) for retention in closed areas compared with only 1.8 % in areas open to fishing. Another target species, Choerodon rubescens was surveyed in greater abundance at sizes larger than the MLL in closed areas (64 % >400 mm) in comparison with areas open to fishing (36 %). A number of non-target species were also larger in closed areas (e.g., Kyphosus cornelii, Scarus schlegeli).

Such habitats are increasingly at risk of destruction as a result of over fishing, ocean warming, acidification and marine litter. A key cause for concern regarding the vulnerability of coral gardens to damage from any source is their slow growth rate, and thereby their ability to recover from damage. Hence protected areas are being put in place, which exclude the use of towed demersal fishing gear. Citizen scientists observed that gorgonian coral (Pink Sea Fans) skeletons were stranding on beaches entangled in marine debris (sea fangles) across southwest England. Further, SCUBA divers reported that gorgonian corals were being caught up and damaged in lost fishing gear and other marine litter. To determine the cause of the damage to coral gardens, sea fangles were collected and analysed. The sea fangles were made up of a diverse range of litter from fishing and domestic sources, however, the majority comprised of fishing gear (P<0.05). Marine Protected Areas can protect coral gardens from direct fishing pressure, but risks still remain from ghost fishing pressure, demonstrating the need for sources of litter into the environment to be reduced and existing litter removed.

The assumption might be made that data collected using similar methodologies are comparable, but this is rarely tested. Here, benthic video data recorded using different towed underwater video systems (TUVSs) were experimentally compared. Three technically different TUVSs were compared on different seabed types (rocky, mixed ground and sandy) in Kingmere Marine Conservation Zone, off the south coast of England. For each TUVS, species metrics (forward facing camera), seabed impact (backward facing camera) and operational performance (strengths and limitations of equipment and video footage) were compared with the aim of providing recommendations on their future use and comparability of data between different systems. Statistically significant differences between species richness, density, cover and assemblage composition were detected amongst devices and were believed to be mostly due to their optical specifications. As a result of their high image definition and large field of vision both the benthic contacting heavy and benthic tending TUVS provided good quality footage and ecological measurements. However, the heaviest TUVS proved difficult to operate on irregular ground and was found to cause the most impact to the seabed. The lightest TUVS (benthic contacting light) struggled to maintain contact with the seabed. The benthic tending TUVS was able to fly over variable seabed relief and was comparably the least destructive. Results from this study highlight that particular care should be given to sled and optic specifications when developing a medium- or long-term marine protected area monitoring programme. Furthermore, when using data gathered from multiple sources to test ecological questions, different equipment specifications may confound observed ecological differences. A benthic tending TUVS is recommended for benthic surveys over variable habitat types, particularly in sensitive areas, such as marine protected areas. © 2016 The Authors.

Initially, closed areas were implemented on a precautionary basis over predicted beds of maerl and horse mussel (. Modiolus modiolus) derived from historical data. Horse mussel and maerl beds are classed as priority habitats which have been identified as being threatened and requiring conservation under the UK Biodiversity Action Plan (UK BAP). Legalisation of the voluntarily adopted closed areas occurred in 2011. Detailed surveys were conducted to map each closed area with specific reference to the defining features located within. Closed areas were surveyed using a hull mounted multibeam system and ground-truthed with an underwater camera system. Information was imported to a Geographic Information System (GIS) in order to create georeferenced habitat maps of the two species of interest. The appropriateness of each closed area was assessed and a proposed methodology and procedure outlined for any future closed areas. The primary aim was to provide information on which to test the validity of initial closed area boundaries and subsequently allow managers to refine and add to them in the future. The survey illustrated the need to have good quality acoustic and visual survey work undertaken whenever areas have been closed based on historical data and/or predicted habitats. Predicted beds were not found to be representative of the survey findings. The survey highlighted the lack of good quality, robust, accurate, and up to date species information for the waters around Shetland, especially with regard to priority marine features. Although some were neither fully protecting the UK BAP habitats they were designed to protect nor were protecting any UK BAP habitats, a degree of protection had been conferred to some priority features in the first iteration of implementation of closed areas. Survey data were subsequently used to legally alter the closed area boundaries to more appropriately reflect the distribution of priority features. Recommendations were made on appropriate procedures for defining a species bed and on the wider implications of the study's findings for other fisheries areas developing spatial management plans. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,184-199,,,43,,Mar.

The increase in protected areas is accompanied by challenges. The major challenge is the tension between conservation and exploitation. However, over-exploitation is causing irreversible damage to tourism resources by ne-glecting to accelerate conservation and satisfying the needs of only tourists. Therefore, it is a prerequisite to eval-uate the value of ecotourism resources, especially non-use values. Liugong Island National Forest Park is a sea-side forest park in Shandong Province, China. Tourist activities have negatively impacted the amenity and values of the park and increased management and maintenance costs. This study aimed to enhance the protection aware-ness of ecotourism resources by evaluating non-use values with the contingent valuation method (CVM). Ecotour-ism attitude factors were extracted by factor analysis, and the ecotourism market was segmented by cluster analy-sis. Then, an empirical assessment model was designed. Furthermore, through a double-bounded dichotomous choice model of the CVM, non-use values of ecotourism resources were estimated, and differences in non-use values among the groups with different attitudes were discussed. The results indicated that (1) Tourists with conservation backgrounds tended to pay more for general non-use values, while high-income tourists were willing to pay more for the Altruistic value; (2) The willingness to pay (WTP) of tourists was highest for the Bequest value, followed by the Existence value or Altruistic value, and finally the Option value; (3) The WTP was highest for the group valuing pluralism, followed by the group concerning resources, and lowest for the group concerning the en-vironment. This study can provide valuable information for ecotourism planning and management that corresponds to current issues and tourist needs. © 2023, Editorial office of Journal of Resources and Ecology.

Especially for the jammer, it is very likely that the radar party will fail to fail and expose its own target if it does not know the intention of the radar party. In order to solve the problems of radar behavior intent identification and threat level analysis of the jammer, we propose a radar threat level recognition method based on the improved support vector machine method of the firefly algorithm, which is of great significance to solve the problems of the exposed target that the jammer may cause by the jammer to start the machine, the difficulty in implementing efficient, real-time and effective jamming, and the threat to the security of the protected area. In this paper, the radar threat level analysis problem is modeled as a classification problem, and for the specific problem that the radar information intercepted by the jammer is extremely limited, considering the good accuracy of the support vector machine method in solving the small sample problem, the support vector machine is selected as the classification model and optimized. Finally, the simulation data experiment is given, and the experimental results show that the support vector machine method optimized by the Firefly algorithm shows good accuracy in the radar threat level analysis problem, that is, the proposed method has good accuracy. © 2024 SPIE.",,,,,13161,,,,,,,,SPIE,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Proc SPIE Int Soc Opt Eng,,,,Analysis problems; Bioluminescence; Classification (of information); Conservation; Electronic countermeasure; Electronic countermeasures; Firefly algorithm; Firefly algorithms; Identification method; Jammers; Jamming; Optimization; Radar threat; radar threat level; Radar threat level; Support Vector Machine; Support vector machine method; Support vector machines; Support vectors machine; Threat levels; Vectors,,Wang J.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, whether they indirectly benefit higher order predators remains unclear. The endangered African penguin (Spheniscus demersus) depends on commercially exploited forage fish. We examined how chick survival responded to an experimental 3-year fishery closure around Robben Island, South Africa, controlling for variation in prey biomass and fishery catches. Chick survival increased by 18% when the closure was initiated, which alone led to a predicted 27% higher population compared with continued fishing. However, the modelled population continued to decline, probably because of high adult mortality linked to poor prey availability over larger spatial scales.

A decade later, at the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD), another significant milestone was reached with the support, by over 100 countries, for a Plan of Implementation that agreed on several specific ecosystem-related targets including: achievement of ""substantial"" reductions in land-based sources of pollution by 2006; introduction of the ecosystems approach to marine resource assessment and management by 2010; designation of a network of marine protected areas by 2012; and the maintenance and restoration of fish stocks to maximum sustainable yield levels by 2015. An international financial mechanism, the Global Environment Facility (GEF), is assisting developing countries in meeting the WSSD targets by supporting Large Marine Ecosystem (LME) assessment and management projects. Of the 29 LMEs for which published case study information is available on analyses of principal forces driving changes in biomass yields, fishing effort was the primary forcing mechanism in 14 LMEs, climate forcing was the principal factor in 13 LMEs, eutrophication in one case and the data were inconclusive in another. Fishing effort was a secondary driver of change in biomass yields in the 13 LMEs driven by climate forcing. Mitigating actions for reducing fishing effort to promote recovery of lost biomass yield is proving successful in one case study. Actions for improving forecasts of oceanographic conditions affecting fish stocks are underway in four GEF-supported LME projects (e.g., Humboldt Current, Canary Current, Guinea Current and Benguela Current); measures to assess and manage excessive fishing effort are planned for eight LME projects, eutrophication reduction and control in another; and six LMEs with relatively stable decadal biomass yields appear suitable for mandating precautionary total allowable catch levels.

However, the presence of numerous different (and potentially mutually exclusive) policies complicates management implementation and public understanding of the process. We distributed an online survey to members of the largest professional shark and ray research societies to assess member knowledge of and attitudes toward different conservation policies. Questions covered society member opinions on conservation and management policies, personal histories of involvement in advocacy and management, and perceptions of the approach of conservation nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) to shark conservation. One hundred and two surveys were completed (overall response rate 21%). Respondents considered themselves knowledgeable about and actively involved in conservation and management policy; a majority believed scientists have a responsibility to advocate for conservation (75%), and majorities have sent formal public comments to policymakers (54%) and included policy suggestions in their papers (53%). They believe sustainable shark fisheries are possible, are currently happening today (in a few places), and should be the goal instead of banning fisheries. Respondents were generally less supportive of newer limit-based (i.e., policies that ban exploitation entirely without a species-specific focus) conservation policy tools, such as shark sanctuaries and bans on the sale of shark fins, than of target-based fisheries management tools (i.e., policies that allow for sustainable harvest of species whose populations can withstand it), such as fishing quotas. Respondents were generally supportive of environmental NGO efforts to conserve sharks but raised concerns about some NGOs that they perceived as using incorrect information and focusing on the wrong problems. Our results show there is an ongoing debate in shark conservation and management circles relative to environmental policy on target-based natural resources management tools versus limit-based conservation tools. They also suggest that closer communication between the scientific and environmental NGO communities may be needed to recognize and reconcile differing values and objectives between these groups. © 2016 Society for Conservation Biology",,805-815,,4,30,,Conserv.

The disadvantages include sub-structure flexibility at greater depths and environmental noise during pile driving with hammers. Monopiles should generally be avoided in deep soft soils and marine life protected area due to the installation limits and impacts. Alternative offshore wind foundations, so called composite pile foundations, with cost and environmental friendly with sufficient stiffness are proposed to make use of offshore wind foundations possible. The composite pile foundations, which are specially used for onshore structure, consists of upper steel tube piles and lower pre-stressed concrete piles resisting high bending moment in upper part and high compression pressure in the lower part. This paper aims to investigate the lateral behavior of the composite pile foundations taking into account the interaction between pile and the soil for both onshore and offshore purposes with 0.5m and 1.0m diameter piles. The full-scaled pile load tests of composite pile foundations have been performed and both beam spring analyses and finite element analyses are carried out. This paper presents analysis results for the application of composite pile foundations for offshore structure at the Korean western sea, where the first offshore wind farms are about to be installed. This paper recommends proper design processes and methods for the use of composite pile foundations in Korean western sea for economical better practice.

There is evidence that conservation actions that halt, slow or reverse biodiversity loss can simultaneously slow anthropogenic mediated climate change significantly. This review highlights conservation actions which have the largest potential for mitigation of climate change. We note that conservation actions have mainly synergistic benefits and few antagonistic trade-offs with climate change mitigation. Specifically, we identify direct co-benefits in 14 out of the 21 action targets of the draft post-2020 global biodiversity framework of the Convention on Biological Diversity, notwithstanding the many indirect links that can also support both biodiversity conservation and climate change mitigation. These relationships are context and scale-dependent; therefore, we showcase examples of local biodiversity conservation actions that can be incentivized, guided and prioritized by global objectives and targets. The close interlinkages between biodiversity, climate change mitigation, other nature's contributions to people and good quality of life are seldom as integrated as they should be in management and policy.

Examination of the most targeted finfish stocks from the coasts of the United States finds that this is rarely the case. This is because the stocks are highly mobile or are not overfished, and overfishing is not occurring. Traditional fishery management tools such as seasonal closures, quotas, and bag limits are proving effective in management of most marine stocks and are preferred over marine reserves for purposes of maintaining or increasing finfish yield. Highly migratory stocks may receive temporary benefit as they pass through a reserve, but this is analogous to traditional methods. Overfished sedentary reef species from the U.S. South Atlantic and the Gulf of Mexico may receive limited benefits from a reserve; but in many instances, recently enacted catch quotas are enhancing stock recovery. For some of the severely stressed rockfishes off the Pacific Coast, stocks are so depleted that complete harvest moratoria are likely necessary for their recovery, and reserves would have to be of unrealistic size to substantially benefit these stocks. Reserves created for the benefit of very few species would negatively impact harvest of sympatric forms whose stocks are healthy. Marine reserves serve many other beneficial purposes in the marine environment. © 2004 by the American Fisheries Society.",,125-131,,42,2004,,Am. Fish. Soc.

However, as a tool for fisheries management, where optimal and/or maximum sustainable yield is the objective, I submit that reserves are generally not as effective as traditional management measures, and are not appropriate for the vast majority of marine species. This is because most marine species are far too mobile to remain within a reserve and/or are not overfished. However, in the United States, of those marine fishes that are experiencing overfishing or are overfished, most have come under management within the last decade, employing more traditional fishery management measures, and are experiencing recovery.

Seagrass meadows are globally regarded as critical habitats because of their ecosystem services, human use values, and their diminishing extent. While selecting priority areas for conservation of seagrass meadows is largely aimed at maximizing the protection of their biodiversity, little attention is paid to consider simultaneously the representation of biodiversity and the minimization of threats. This study developed and tested an approach for integrating vulnerability of seagrass meadows to anthropogenic disturbance with the selection of estuarine-protected areas. Vulnerability was measured by data on different land use types in subcatchments. Conservation value was measured by irreplaceability, diversity indices, and rarity of macroinvertebrate species in seagrass meadows. Vulnerability was incorporated into conservation planning by plotting grid cell scores for conservation value versus their scores for vulnerability. The results showed that the performance of the model for the integration of vulnerability into estuarine conservation planning was sensitive to the data treatment.

The lack of information about marine biodiversity is problematic for the selection of conservation reserves that aim to protect representative samples of biodiversity. A number of surrogate measures for biodiversity have been suggested as a potential solution to this problem. 2. The present study tested the effectiveness of using higher taxa of macroinvertebrates as a surrogate for species-level identification to depict spatial variation in species richness and assemblage variation and to select conservation reserves in one estuary in south-east Australia. 3. Spatial patterns of richness and assemblage variation for species were significantly correlated with patterns defined from genera, families, orders, classes, and phyla with a decline in the magnitude of correlation coefficients from finer to coarser resolutions. A network of reserves selected to include representatives of all phyla, classes, orders, families and genera coincidentally included 54%, 61.7%, 75%, 92.6%, 98.8% species in 8.3%, 13.9%, 17.7%, 44.4% and 58.3% of grid cells, respectively. However, only reserves selected for genera, families and orders performed significantly better than random selection. 4. Percentage of species represented by orders, families and genera in a realistic level of available grid cells for conservation (i.e. 13.9%) were very close ranging between 70 and 73.5%. A factor diminishing the performance of order as surrogate for species richness was related to the difficulty of identifying many macroinvertebrates to the order level. Therefore, it is concluded that genus- and family-level identification is an effective surrogate for species-level identification for conservation planning in estuaries. © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,626-636,,6,19,,Aquatic Conserv.

Ecological theory predicts that a species’ vulnerability is greater at the edges of its geographic range compared to its core. However, edge populations may still be successfully managed inside reserves when the drivers of declines are addressed with priority. Our aim was to evaluate the status of Caspian red deer in Iran and address the importance of law enforcement and landscape connectivity between reserves. Using systematic occurrence records and ranger-based censuses, we applied multiple methods to model the Caspian red deer’s distribution, quantify population trajectory metrics and predict landscape connectivity. Additionally, we ran generalized linear models in a Bayesian approach to assess the importance of ranger stations and connectivity on population abundance. We estimated the population at 747 (CI 95% 604–890) individuals being confined to 21 areas, reflecting a decline by 59% compared to an estimate in 1977 with declining trajectories in 98% of reserves. The number of ranger stations was the only factor correlating with its population abundance. Moreover, extirpation and range loss mostly occurred in the periphery of its Iranian distribution, and we detected five stepping stone areas in the center of the range. Our study suggests that under conditions of heavy poaching and competition with livestock, conservation urgently needs to focus on increased law enforcement and improvement of habitat quality to stop declines and prevent extinction of this large ungulate in Iran. © 2020, Springer Nature B.V.",,85-105,,1,30,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,Caspian forest; Cervus elaphus; Cervus elaphus maral; conservation management; conservation status; deer; ecological theory; edge effect; Edge of range; endangered species; extinction; geographical distribution; habitat quality; Hyrcanian forest; Iran; law enforcement; population decline; Population size; protected area; range expansion; Ranger stations; Stepping stone; Ungulata; vulnerability,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The MaPP Zoning Framework was developed over an 18-month period at the beginning of the marine spatial planning (MSP) process with stakeholder consultation and incorporated lessons learned from other planning efforts in British Columbia and globally. The three main requirements for the Framework included that it was applicable and flexible for use across the MaPP regional boundary, which included four subregions that had diverse priorities and marine activities, that guiding principles for zoning would provide consistency for policy and other decisions within the MaPP regions, and that zone categories synergized with existing policy and legislation. A stakeholder advisory process was used to develop the Framework which resulted in three zone categories to achieve the goals of MaPP: Protection Management Zone (PMZ), Special Management Zone (SMZ), and General Management Zone (GMZ). Zone identification included numerous factors such as species and habitat diversity, cultural values, existing uses and activities, and priorities for sustainable economic development and conservation. The Framework was effectively used to zone 102,000 km2 of the MaPP region during the MSP process for more than 15 different sectors that were within the scope of the MaPP partners' jurisdiction. Importantly, the Framework was successfully adapted across the four distinct MaPP subregions and consistently applied for an effective regional approach to decision making and management for both First Nations and provincial governments.",,,,,152,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000999386000001,,,,,,,British Columbia; Canada; Ecosystem -based management; ECOSYSTEM-BASED MANAGEMENT; First Nations; GOVERNANCE; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; LESSONS; Marine spatial planning; Marine zoning; PROTECTED AREA NETWORK,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Reporting the extent to which governments are contributing to global MPA targets (e.g., the IUCN World Parks Congress recently called for a global target of 30% no-take reserve coverage) provides accountability and frames individual progress within this larger context. The various types of MPAs offer differing levels of protection. No-take marine reserves (i.e., areas strongly protected from all fishing, mining and other extraction-based activities) demonstrate the greatest benefit for the conservation of marine biodiversity and the protection of ecosystem services. Using data collected and curated at MPAtlas.org, spatial coverage of no-take reserves was compared across each of the Group of 20 (G20) countries (with the exception of the European Union).Coverage of no-take reserves and other protected areas shows significant variations among this group of nations. Despite many commitments by the G20 to protect their waters, such as agreement with the Aichi Target 11 (10% of coastal and marine areas will be conserved by 2020), these nations with the greatest financial resources fall far below targets. Claims of national MPA coverage are also found to be misleading because weakly protected or poorly enforced areas are often evaluated equally with the strongest no-take marine reserves. Results show that 14 of the G20 member countries strongly protect less than 1% of their ocean area in no-take reserves. One G20 country protects just over 2%, while the remaining four protect more than 4% in no-take reserves. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,25-30,,,115,,Ocean Coast.

However, the effects of variability among habitats and of park management on bird assemblages are poorly understood. We studied bird communities within the Yarkon Park, Tel Aviv, the largest urban park in Israel. We examined species richness, abundance and community composition across 20 locations that differ in levels of park management to identify habitat variables responsible for variation in bird richness and composition. Of 91 recorded bird species, 13 were aliens (14%), 4 were urban exploiters (4%), 54 were urban adapters (60%) and 20 were migrants (22%). Management had a significant effect on native bird richness and bird community structure varied among areas with different management regimes. Species richness of all the above species' groups was lowest in intensively managed areas. Areas with intermediate levels of management had higher or equal richness compared to unmanaged areas. The majority of urban exploiters were found at all locations within the park reaching their highest abundances in intensively managed areas. Species richness of alien birds did not vary across levels of management. Bird species richness was negatively associated with lawn cover and with distance from nearest water source and was positively associated with the number of woody plant species. We suggest that urban parks should be designed such that the heterogeneity of native vegetation is preserved, if we aim to maintain native bird species diversity and minimize urban exploiter and alien species. When lightly managed or unmanaged, urban parks can retain large remnants of sub-natural habitats and can serve as important contributors to the conservation of native biodiversity within a large urban metropolis. © 2007 Elsevier B.V.

The major vegetation units of the SMLE were determined from satellite imagery and field visits and then mapped using Landsat 8 and RapidEye imagery and maximum likelihood classifier. These units were sampled using 40 m x 20 m (800 m˛) plots in which the coverage of all plant species was estimated. Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMS) demonstrated that plant communities were determined by gradients in soil texture or fertility and wetness. NMS 1 represented a gradient of soil texture with seven woodland communities on sandy soils (sandveld communities and Baikiaea forest) dominated by Baikiaea plurijuga in Baikiaea forest and Terminalia sericea and Philenoptera nelsii in sandveld, with various indicator species differentiating the various sandveld community types. Mopane woodland further from and riparian woodland adjacent to permanent water was common on less sandy alluvial soils. Mineral-rich, heavy clay soils in the sump of a large paleolake system support open grassland and mixed Senegalia/Vachellia (Acacia) savanna, with the mineral-rich soils supporting grasses high in minerals such as phosphorus, calcium, sodium and potassium, and thus this region is a critical wet season range for migratory zebra. Taller, high-quality grasses in the mosaic of sandveld and mopane woodland communities provide critical grazing for taller grass grazers such as buffalo, roan and sable antelope, whereas wetland communities provide reliable green forage during the dry season for a variety of herbivores, including elephant. This study has demonstrated how large-scale environmental gradients determine functional habitat heterogeneity for wildlife. Conservation implications: Our study demonstrated that the functionality of protected areas is determined by large-scale environmental gradients. Thus conservation science must aim to ensure that protected areas cover the full range of key environmental gradients in a region (soil texture and wetness in our study).

Cost-effective planning tools are needed to help managers anticipate where recreation disturbance is likely to occur. Tools from wildlife ecology may be helpful in meeting this information need, especially for large, remote PPA that experience sporadic use. We employed step selection function (SSF) analysis as a novel and flexible tool to identify areas with high probabilities of recreational disturbance. We fit SSFs to model environmental and experiential factors associated with campsite selection among backcountry kayakers in two regions of Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve (GLBA) in Alaska, USA. We hypothesized campers would select sites that offer bare, flat ground, are close to freshwater sources, and maximize experience-related attributes of glacier and scenic viewing while minimizing exposure to large vessels. Campers in both regions selected sites offering a combination of experiential and environmental site characteristics; however, not all factors were significant in the best fitting models. Site selection probabilities increased with increases in bare, flat ground and as distance to the nearest glacier decreased. In one region, selection probability also increased with increases in scenic viewshed. Using modeled relationships, we generated predictive maps of relative selection strength to locate areas within GLBA with high potential for camping based on site characteristics. Our results can be used to prioritize monitoring, target restoration efforts, or implement management actions to prevent camping-related resource impacts. © 2023",,,,,237,,Landsc.

In 2019, the South Atlantic subpopulation has been downlisted to ‘Least Concern’, but the maintenance of this status strongly relies on the pursuit of research and conservation, especially on immatures, which contribute to the demographic renewal of this subpopulation. Identifying marine areas used by immatures is therefore crucial to implement efficient measures for the conservation of sea turtles in the Caribbean. We analysed data of capture-mark-recapture of 107 (out of 299) immatures recaptured at least once in Martinique, and satellite tracked 24 immatures to investigate their site fidelity and habitat use. Our results revealed a strong fidelity to foraging grounds, with mean residence times higher than 2 years, and with a high degree of affinity for specific areas within the coastal marine vegetation strip. Home ranges (95% kernel contour) and core areas (50% kernel contour) varied from 0.17 to 235.13 km2 (mean ± SD = 30.73 ± 54.34 km2) and from 0.03 to 22.66 km2 (mean ± SD = 2.95 ± 5.06 km2), respectively.

We contribute to a ""political ecology of scale"" by developing the concept of a scalar narrative to show how social and ecological scales are reworked in the development of an ecosystem-based approach to marine management in Fiji. In doing so, we consider implications of the struggle to define the appropriate scale of marine management, which is closely bound to debates about the role of science and local participation. Our findings suggest that the struggle to define the scale at which marine management should be planned and implemented is inseparable from the struggle over who should define, inform, and conduct the governance process. We aim to clarify marine policy debates as policy actors worldwide move forward to implement ecosystem-based management, increase marine protected area coverage, and pursue sustainable development. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,206-216,,1,23,,Global Environ.

The Red List of Ecosystems (RLE) from the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) is the global standard for assessing the risk of ecosystem collapse. Such tools are particularly needed for large, dynamic ecosystem complexes, such as the Indian Sundarbans mangrove forest. This ecosystem supports unique biodiversity and the livelihoods of millions, but like many mangrove forests around the world is facing substantial pressure from a range of human activities. Holistic, standardised and quantitative environment risk assessment frameworks are essential here, because previous assessments have either been qualitative in nature, or have generally considered single threats in isolation. We review these threats and utilise the RLE framework to quantitatively assess the risk of ecosystem collapse. Historical clearing and diminishing fish populations drove a status of Endangered (range: Vulnerable to Endangered), and ongoing threats including climate change and reduced freshwater supply may further impact this ecosystem. However, considering recent change, the outlook is more optimistic. Mangrove extent has stabilised, and analysis of mangrove condition highlights that only a small proportion of the forest is degraded. Using the RLE provides an authoritative avenue for further protection and recognition of the issues facing this UNESCO World Heritage Site. We also identify knowledge and data gaps in the Sundarbans that are likely common to coastal systems globally. By articulating these and presenting opportunities and recommendations, we aim to further the conservation goals of the IUCN and the implementation of its new assessment framework.",,,,,251,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000587339000003,,,,,,,BANGLADESH; BENGAL; BIODIVERSITY; BIOSPHERE RESERVE; CLIMATE-CHANGE; COASTAL; CONSERVATION; Ecosystem condition; Ecosystem integrity; Ecosystem risk assessment; Habitat assessment; Habitat evaluation; Impact evaluation; MANAGEMENT; RISK; SEDIMENTS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Erroneous assessments will be most prevalent in vast poorly surveyed areas where herbarium collections are sparse. In arid environments, assessments are further confounded by extreme temporal variability and poor understanding of the nature and magnitude of threats. We systematically re-assess the conservation status of an arid-zone flora. The status of all 1781 vascular plant species occurring across 635300km2 of inland eastern Australia was initially assessed through herbarium records and expert interviews. This process generated a list of apparently rare and potentially threatened species, which guided a targeted survey program over 4 years. Search effort and key data on populations of candidate species found were recorded and used to assess 91 species against IUCN criteria. One-third of species were widespread and abundant at least in certain seasons, but had been deemed rare due to sparse collections. The conservation status of 20, mostly newly recognised species from restricted habitats, was upgraded and 14 remained listed because of having restricted areas of occupancy. With the exception of 12 artesian spring species, continuing declines were documented for just six species. The criterion that allows for listing of species because of extreme fluctuations (in combination with restricted and fragmented populations) needs to be carefully interpreted in arid zones, where these fluctuations may be apparent rather than real, and may actually confer resilience to grazing for some species. Our approach facilitates robust conservation assessments across vast and poorly known arid regions, distinguishing species that have merely been lost in space and time from those that are at risk of extinction. © 2014 CSIRO.",,674-688,,8,62,,Aust.

The estuary is also part of the Rio Pacoti Environmental Protection Area (Rio Pacoti EPA), which is important for the stability of the local ecosystems and the exchange of material and energy. Despite being protected legally, the environmental quality of the study area is being threatened by impacts such as the deforestation, landfills, the contamination of the water table, and unregulated building, which all alter the natural dynamics of the local systems. These impacts result from inadequate processes of land use and occupation, which fail to respect local potentialities and limitations. The present study found that these processes of degradation are ongoing, and do not only contradict the legislation that regulates the sustainable use of the local environment, but may also cause irreparable damage to the local geo-ecological systems, constituting a grave problem for this sector of the coast of Ceará. In this context, the study presents a geo-environmental description of the estuary and an integrated diagnosis, based on the geoecological analysis of the landscape, in two phases -organization and survey, analysis, diagnosis, and proposals. The application of this geo-ecological analysis resulted in the demarcation and classification of the following units: coastal plain and the pre-coastal plateau. Based on this analysis, a proposal for the environmental and functional zoning of the study area was put forward, with the objective of integrating economic development with the conservation of local natural resources. © Coastal Education and Research Foundation, Inc. 2016.",,143-147,,,1,,,,,,,,Coastal Education Research Foundation Inc.,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 75 Journal Abbreviation: J.

In addition to supporting conservation, MPAs are sustainably used by local populations to help maintain ocean-dependent livelihoods. In this sense, we aim to assess the socioeconomic vulnerability of human communities in MPAs affected by this major oil spill. Using digital mapping, we assessed the socioeconomic vulnerability of 68 human communities living in or near 60 MPAs of different categories that were impacted by this spill. This is the first assessment of the vulnerability status of human populations under significant levels of poverty and social inequality, which are particularly dependent on healthy and effective Brazilian MPAs. More than 6,500 enterprises and institutions were mapped, including trade activities, services, tourism, and leisure venues. Most enterprises (34.4%) were involved in the food sector, related to the ocean economy, and, therefore, highly vulnerable to oil spills. Furthermore, the majority (79.3%) of the vulnerable activities are concentrated in multiple-use MPAs, with extractive reserves coming second and accounting for 18%. This result shows the high vulnerability of this tropical coast to oil accidents and the risks to food security for traditional communities. We also found a heterogeneous vulnerability indicator along the coast, with the most vulnerable regions having an undiversified economic matrix heavily dependent on activities such as fishing, family farming, tourism, accommodation, and the food sector. Thus, this study provides a tool to help prevent and mitigate economic losses and increases the understanding of the weaknesses of MPAs in the face of large-scale disasters, thus helping to build socioeconomic and ecological resilience.

They are also sensitive to environmental alterations (e.g., climate change) and other anthropic impacts related to coastal anthropization (e.g., fishing activities). Marine-coastal zone protection, conservation programs and management strategies are essential to guarantee a good ecological status of the coralligenous habitat. In this context, environmental and ecosystem accounting are useful tools to measure natural capital stocks and ecosystem service flows associated with marine ecosystems, conveying their importance in scientific and policy contexts. Indeed, the importance of marine ecosystems is often overlooked due to the difficulty of expressing their value in common units, making it challenging for decision-makers to explore trade-offs between conservation and exploitation of marine ecosystems. In this study, a biophysical and trophodynamic environmental accounting model was used to assess the biophysical value of natural capital stocks of the coralligenous habitat in three Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) of the Campania Region (Southern Italy): Punta Campanella, Santa Maria di Castellabate, and Costa degli Infreschi e della Masseta. The natural capital value per unit area associated with the coralligenous habitat ranged from 2.44 × 1012 to 4.72 × 1012 sej m?2 for Santa Maria di Castellabate and Punta Campanella, respectively. Despite the different intensive values of natural capital calculated for the MPAs, there were no significant differences both in the biomass values of the taxonomic groups and in the biomass-based Shannon diversity index. Additionally, the biophysical values were also converted into monetary units, with the aim of facilitating the understanding of the importance of natural stocks in socio-economic and political contexts. The economic equivalent of natural capital value refers to the total extent of the coralligenous habitat and ranged from about EUR 1 to 15 million for Costa degli Infreschi e della Masseta and Santa Maria di Castellabate, respectively. The results of this study could be useful for local managers and policy makers and may make them more likely to achieve biodiversity conservation and sustainable development goals in MPAs. This is the first study devoted to the assessment of natural capital value of coralligenous habitats. Future studies could complement the results of this study with biophysical and economic assessments of ecosystem service flows generated by coralligenous habitats, focusing on the role they play in human well-being. © 2024 by the authors.",,,,21,16,,Sustainability,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,benthic ecology; benthos; biodiversity; Campania [Italy]; corallivory; ecosystem accounting; ecosystem service; habitat conservation; Italy; marine ecology; marine ecosystem; marine ecosystems; natural capital; nature conservation; policy making; protected area; sustainability; Sustainable Development Goal,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The aim of this study was to evaluate differences in ichthyofaunal assemblages between shallow (<30 m) and mesophotic (>30 m) reef zones in three sites of the Parque Nacional zona marina del Archipiélago de Espíritu Santo (PNZMAES), a Marine protected area from the Gulf of California. To accomplish this objective, we used 14 video transects recorded with an ROV in October 2019 between 13 and 72 m depth. From these recordings, we determined species richness and abundance to analyze community structure and estimate biomass. A permutational multivariate analysis of variance was used to analyze differences between zones, sites, and their interaction. The abundance and estimated biomass of trophic groups were plotted to describe the trophic structure of the depth zones at PNZMAES. We also analyzed functional structure, functional richness (FRic), functional evenness (FEve), functional divergence (FDiv), functional specialization (FSpe), and functional originality (FOri) by depth zone and video transect based on six biological traits and estimated biomass. The taxonomic and functional indices were the response variables of linear models, while the explanatory variables were in situ temperature, light, and dissolved oxygen. At PNZMAES, 61 species were registered: 42 species in the shallow zone (high abundance and estimated biomass of planktivorous) and 40 species in the mesophotic zone (high abundance of planktivorous and high estimated biomass of piscivores). When comparing the ichthyofaunal community structure, differences were observed in richness, abundance, and estimated biomass associated with the depth zone, site, and the interaction of these variables. An overlap of more than 60% in the functional volume between zones was observed. Higher values of FRic, FDiv, and FSpe in the deep zone indicated that ecological functions were equivalent to those in the shallow zone. Finally, the linear models indicated an effect of environmental variables on the ecological indicators. The mesophotic reefs of PNZMAES are potential refuges for certain species (some of them endangered) and should be considered in the proposal of management strategies to protect them from future anthropogenic threats. © 2024 The Author(s)",,,,,209,,Deep-Sea Res.

The effects of fishing pressure on the density of three reef fishes were investigated in 21 islands outside (n=15) and inside (n=6) a Marine Protected Area (MPA) at the Paraty Bay, Brazilian southeastern coast. Two valued groupers (Epinephelus marginatus and Mycteroperca acutirostris) and a non-target grunt (Haemulon aurolineatum) were studied. The total biomass of fish caught in each island was considered as a measure of current fishing pressure, while the island distance from the villages was considered as a measure of past fishing pressure. Fish densities were recordedin number and biomass. The biomass of M. acutirostris was inversely related to current fishing pressure, which did not affect the other two fishes. The density of E. marginatus increased with the island distance from one of the fishing villages, which indicated that past fishing may have had decreased the abundance of E. marginatus. Densities of the three fishes and fishing pressure did not differ between islands inside and outside the MPA. Data on fishing pressure, densities of groupers and coral cover were combined here to assign conservation scores to islands. A redefinition of MPA boundaries to reconcile fish conservation, fishing activities and fishers’ food security was proposed. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,125-132,,,75,,Mar.

This work aims to test the cut effect of T. domingensis on benthic macroinvertebrates as well as on macrophyte regeneration. These phenomena were analyzed in small areas (1 m2) in a T. domingensis stand by comparing cut treatments and control treatments. Macroinvertebrate were sampled with a corer in the following time sequence after the cut event in both treatments: one day, 26 days, 60 days, 89 days, and 182 days. Macrophyte regeneration was monitored through monthly measurements at each treatment. The macroinvertebrate density did not differ between treatments (ANOVA, p < 0.05). Among the 23 taxa identifed, Tubifcidae was the only family to response to cut treatment. DCA showed an overlapping between treatments indicating a not clear pattern. The growth of T. domingensis shoots was not affected by the disturbance.

The plethora of 19th century animal and plant invasions led to much research, beginning in the early 20th century, on their impacts and how to counteract them. New Zealand particularly became a leader in control and eradication of mammals and in biological control of pestiferous insects and plants. By hosting international conferences on eradicating invasions, and by mounting ambitious, inspirational projects with innovative technologies, New Zealand further increased its influence in this area. The nation has also inspired the world with vigorous, innovative attempts to rescue endemic animal species on the brink of extinction. An impressive New Zealand programme of reserves for conservation of marine species and ecosystems is threatened by the fact that conservation goals and those of commerce and recreation can never fully align. As in other nations with globally important biodiversity, New Zealand has seen disputes between its native inhabitants and European colonists and their descendants over conservation and customary use of this resource.

We focus on shallow-to mid-water (<90 m) coral reef habitats within the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council (Gulf Council) jurisdiction. Many of these areas have supported sheries for multiple species in the families Lutjanidae and Epinephelidae since the 1800s. The Gulf Council, since its formation in 1976, has interacted with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Ofce of National Marine Sanctuaries, to recognize some of these habitats as important ecological resources deserving protection (https://sanctuaries.noaa.gov). We describe Gulf Council current management efforts and provide an updated literature review of these reef systems and their associated shes. Some areas within the Gulf of Mexico have been extensively studied, while others have only preliminary or qualitative baseline data. Overall, there has been a lack of consistent research effort and monitoring of reef systems throughout the Gulf of Mexico, which limits our understanding of current conditions. This gap in knowledge creates many challenges for monitoring and management. Ultimately the larger goal of this chapter is to demonstrate the close association between many of the reef sh species managed by the Gulf Council and the coral reef habitats. © 2015 by Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.",,19-38,,,,,,,,,,,CRC Press,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Interrelationships between Corals and Fisheries DOI: 10.1201/b17159-8,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Ecosystems have higher-order emerging properties that can affect the conservation of species. We identify some of these properties in order to facilitate a better understanding of them. 2. Nonlinear, indirect effects of food web interactions among species can produce counterintuitive changes in populations. 3. Species differ in their roles and linkages with other species in the system. These roles are a property of the system. Such differences in roles influence how we conserve individual species. 4. Ecosystems operate at a multitude of interacting spatial and temporal scales, which together structure the system and affect the dynamics of individual populations. 5. Disturbance also structures an ecosystem, producing both long-term slow changes and sudden shifts in ecosystem dynamics. 6. Ecosystems therefore can have multiple states, determined both by disturbance regimes and biotic interactions. Conservation should recognize a possible multiplicity of natural states while avoiding aberrant (human-induced) states. 7. Ecosystem processes are influenced by the composition of the biota they contain. Disturbances to the biota can distort processes and functions, which in turn can endanger individual species. 8. The goal of ecosystem conservation is the long-term persistence of the biota in the system. There are two paradigms: community-based conservation (CBC) and protected area conservation. Both have their advantages but neither is sufficient to protect the biota on its own. 9. CBC is required to conserve the majority of the world's biota not included in protected areas. However, current CBC methods favour a few idiosyncratic species, distort the species complex, and ignore the majority. More comprehensive methods are required for this approach to meet the goal of ecosystem conservation. 10. Protected areas are essential to conserve species unable to coexist with humans. They also function as ecological baselines to monitor the effects of humans on their own ecosystems. 11. However, protected areas suffer from loss of habitat through attrition of critical areas. Thus, renewal (addition) of habitat is required in order to achieve the long-term persistence of biota in functioning ecosystems. Identification of minimum habitat areas and restoration of ecosystems become two major priorities for future research. © 2006 British Ecological Society.",,64-79,,1,75,,J. Anim.

The absence of historical and baseline information creates a significant challenge in effectively designing suitable management plans. This study aimed at developing reliable benthic cover maps of village intertidal resource harvest areas (Cakaunisasi and Yarawa reefs) and anthropogenic perceptions of Votua Village in the Ba region of Fiji for better resource management planning and monitoring. Images captured by the WorldView2 satellite were used as a base for mapping out the resources. Data logging on-site, Global Positioning System (GPS) recordings, local interviews and high-resolution video capturing were utilised for ground-truthing techniques. Six classes of benthic cover were identified, which included algae, coral, sand and gravel, buried reef, coral rubble and seagrass. Accuracy assessment and supervised classification were done using ground reference points. There was an existing marine protected area (MPA) on the Yarawa reef, which did not seem to be working as well as anticipated by observing the habitat maps of the two reefs. Baseline maps constructed here and possibly ecosystem maps can allow for monitoring of the existing MPA as well as the formation of a new and more informed MPA.

Dactylorhiza hatagirea (D.Don) Soo is an important yet highly threatened medicinal orchid from the Himalayan region. Poor regenerative power and growing demand have resulted in the steep decline of its natural habitats populations. The present study aims to identify the habitat suitability of D. hatagirea in the Western Himalaya using the maximum entropy model (MaxEnt). The community climate system model (CCSM ver. 4) based on representative concentration pathways (RCPs) was used to determine suitable future areas. Sixteen least correlated (< 0.8) bioclimatic, topographical and geomorphic variables were used to construct the species climatic niche. The dominant contributing variables were elevation (34.85%) followed by precipitation of the coldest quarter (23.04%), soil type (8.77%), land use land cover (8.26%), mean annual temperature (5.51%), and temperature seasonality (5.11%). Compared to the present distribution, habitat suitability under future projection, i.e., RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 (2050 and 2070), was found to shift to higher elevation towards the northwest direction, while lower altitudes will invariably be less suitable. Further, as compared to the current distribution, the climatic niche space of the species is expected to expand in between11.41-22.13% in the near future. High habitats suitability areas are mainly concentrated in the forest range like Dharchula and Munsyari range, Pindar valley, Kedarnath Wildlife Sanctuary, West of Nanda Devi Biosphere Reserve, and Uttarkashi forest division. The present study delineated the fundamental niche baseline map of D. hatagirea in the Western Himalayas and highlighted regions/areas where conservation and management strategies should be intensified in the next 50 years. In addition, as the species is commercially exploited illegally, the information gathered is essential for conservationists and planners who protect the species at the regional levels.  © 2022 Singh et al.

Many marine ecologists and fisheries biologists have embraced marine protected areas (MPAs) as an appropriate policy prescription. Consistent with nearly all current environmental planning initiatives, collaborative ""stakeholder"" processes are the preferred method of designating and implementing MPAs. There are several problems with the way this model is conceptualized and operationalized, particularly as it pertains to aboriginal people: (1) proponents of MPAs and other marine conservation initiatives often focus on aggregate costs/benefits, without regard to distributive inequalities; (2) the prevailing assumption that all relevant ""stakeholders"" can be jointly incorporated into a collaborative process is misleading, given that there are significant differences in legal rights and other political capacities among the various ""stakeholders""; (3) political institutions have a significant role in creating the different status of stakeholder groups, and thus shaping their interests, goals, capacities, and strategies. Two cases-MPA planning efforts in Washington State and in British Columbia-will be used to illustrate the argument, and in each case, I focus on how aboriginal groups are incorporated into both the immediate planning processes and the larger polity, and how a careful consideration of these factors and the effects they have on the groups' capacities to affect outcomes deepens our understanding of MPA design, implementation, and management. © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.",,421-440,,5,37,,Coast.

Iterative progress has been made in overcoming challenges faced by developing countries, especially in the inaccessible marine realm. Our aim is to report on the approach to produce and improve a national marine ecosystem map to guide other countries facing similar challenges, and to illustrate the impact of even the simplest ecosystem map. South Africa has produced four map versions, from a rudimentary map of 34 biozones informed by bathymetry data, to the latest version comprising 163 ecosystem types informed by 83 environmental and biodiversity datasets that aligns with the IUCN Global Ecosystem Typology. Data were unlocked through academic and industry collaborations; multi-disciplinary, multi-realm and multi-generational networks of practitioners; and targeted research to address key gaps. To advance toward a more transparent, reproducible and data-driven approach, limitations, barriers and opportunities for improvement were identified. Challenges included limited human and data infrastructure capacity to collate, curate and assimilate many data sources, covering a variety of ecosystem components, methods and scales. Five key lessons that are of relevance for others working to advance ecosystem classification and mapping, were distilled. These include (1) the benefits of iterative improvement; (2) the value of fostering relationships among a co-ordinated network of practitioners including early-career researchers; (3) strategically prioritizing and leveraging resources to build and curate key foundational biodiversity datasets and understand drivers of biodiversity pattern; (4) the need for developing, transferring and applying capacity and tools that enhance data quality, analytical workflows and outputs; and (5) the application of new technology and emerging statistical tools to improve the classification and prediction of biodiversity pattern. South Africa’s map of marine ecosystem types has been successfully applied in spatial biodiversity assessment, prioritization to support protected area expansion and marine spatial planning. These successes demonstrate the value of a co-ordinated network of practitioners who continually build an evidence base and iteratively improve ecosystem mapping while simultaneously growing ecological knowledge and informing changing priorities and policy.

In Africa, the number of published studies on the significance of SFs in biodiversity conservation has constantly increased. This offers an opportunity to deploy a systematic review. This study aimed to carry out the first review of SFs in Africa to apply a systematic approach. A systematic literature search on the role of SFs in biodiversity conservation was conducted on Scopus and Google Scholar databases, and additional searches of articles were carried out manually in the reference lists. The search produced 61 papers in 19 countries in Africa that were published between 1995 and 2022. Majority of studies on SFs (44%; n = 27) reported in the reviewed literature were from West Africa as compared to other regions. Methodologically, 80% (n = 49) of reviewed studies lack comparative data with non-sacred areas. A great majority of papers (69%; n = 42) focused on the role of SFs in the protection of plant species, particularly at local/regional scales with no study conducted at international level. Although SFs have great potential for in situ conservation, they are increasingly threatened by anthropogenic pressure. To avoid further threats to SFs, custodians should be legally recognised as owners of SFs and efforts should be made to ensure that SFs are granted juristic personhood. Government should support the protection of SFs and recognise them in a way similar to the recognition given formal protected areas as they also protect vulnerable, threatened and critically endangered species. Existing policies that embrace cultural and religious practices should be implemented to help protect the remaining SFs. © 2024 The Author(s).

Although there are many methods for estimating demographic rates, capture-mark-recapture (CMR) methods are known to be the most realistic method that can provide detailed data on individuals and populations, including the achievement of conservation goals. This study focused on determining the population trend of Pelophylax bedriagae caralitanus, Bey?ehir frog using the CMR method in a protected area during the 2011–2019 breeding seasons. Our CMR data led to the selection of model-considering constant survival rates, capture/recapture probabilities, and year-specific immigration/emigration patterns [?(··) y’(t) y’’(t) p(··) = c(··) N(t)]-as the most fitting biological hypothesis among 22 constructed models. According to the best-fitted model, 6% of all individuals in Gölcük population can be captured during each sampling occasion. The annual survival rates show low variation between years, and the mean survival rate was estimated as 0.85, that means 85% of the individuals of Pelophylax bedriagae caralitanus in the Gölcük population were able to live on to subsequent breeding seasons. The average population size of Gölcük population for nine consecutive years was estimated as 5094 (range 4834–5382) individuals that shows minor and acceptable levels of population size fluctuations, and slightly increasing over the years. These findings can guide future research, aiding in assessing population size changes in both protected and nonprotected areas while understanding population decline trends. © 2024, Turkiye Klinikleri.

This coastline also supports a huge human population, which is dependent on the rich coastal and marine resources. Despite the tremendous ecological and economic importance and the existence of a policy and regulatory framework, India's coastal and marine ecosystems are under threat. Numerous direct and indirect pressures arising from different types of economic development and associated activities are having adverse impacts on coastal and marine biodiversity across the country. Marine protected areas (MPAs) network in India has been used as a tool to manage natural marine resources for biodiversity conservation and for the well-being of people dependent on. In India, protected areas (PAs) in whole or in part that falls within swath of 500 m from the high tide line and to marine environment are included in the MPAs Network. Based on this definition, there are 18 MPAs present in the Peninsular India and more than 100 MPAs in its Islands. Of the 18 MPAs in the peninsula, Gulf of Mannar Marine National Park, Sundarbans National Park, Gulf of Kutch National Park, Bhitrakanika National Park, Coringa Wildlife Sanctuary, and Chilika Wildlife Sanctuary have unique marine biodiversity and provide a range of services to local communities. These 18 MPAs cover an area of about 6,158 km2, which is 3.85 % of total area covered under the entire Protected Area Network of India or less than 0.2 % of total land areas of India. However, a total of 4.97 % of coastal zone of peninsular India has already been included in the existing MPAs which is almost 50 % of Aichi Biodiversity Target No. 11. Total area of Andaman and Nicobar Island is 4,947 km2, of which 1,510 km2 are protected under the provision of India's Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972. There are 105 PAs in Andaman and Nicobar Islands, of these about 100 are MPAs. Although, these MPAs cover more than 30 % of terrestrial areas of islands but still protect more than 40 % of available coastal habitats of islands. The Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park and Rani Jhansi Marine National Park are important MPAs here. In Lakshadweep group of islands, Pitti Island (0.01 km2) is the only island having the status as MPA. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.

An innovative approach towards this direction is to study whether animal, and particularly fish behaviour, can contribute to the development of SCUBA diving tourism. The principal two axes of the current survey were the enhancement of SCUBA diving safety (via the promotion of swallow waters biocommunities) and the marine life protection (via environmental awareness). The two study areas are located in Chalkidiki peninsula (Greece, North Aegean Sea). The preliminary part of this study demonstrated a non significant difference between males and females regarding their age, their diving experience (training level and hours of diving) and their diving preferences (depth and type of sea bottom). Nesting and agonistic behavior of three Labridae fish (Symphodus ocellatus, Symphodus cinereus, Xyrichthys novacula) were used as motivation factors in the three testing hypotheses. Among those three hypotheses, diving in shallow rocky bottom aiming at the observation of Symphodus ocellatus seems to be the most attractive for the divers. As a general remark, briefing is a very useful tool that can inform, but also orientate the customers. Additionally, the very poor knowledge of Mediterranean undersea wildlife, especially by the recreational SCUBA diving staff should be mentioned. As a conclusion, the current approach can be used for the enhancement of SCUBA diving product (i.e. promotion of specialties such as Fish Identification) or increase of SCUBA diving equipment (i.e. underwater cameras).",,377-389,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000436507100028,,,,,,,BEHAVIOR; CORAL-REEFS; DIVE BRIEFINGS; FISH; Fish ethology; IMPACTS; LEISURE; MANAGEMENT; Marine tourism; PROTECTED AREA; SCUBA diving; TOURISM,,"Katsoni, V; Velander, K",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,INNOVATIVE APPROACHES TO TOURISM AND LEISURE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We suggest a Marine Classification Criterion (MCC) which allows the application of the widely used Ramsar 1% criterion for wetlands for seabirds with clustered distribution in offshore habitats. The maximum size of an area considered to be internationally important has not been defined by the Ramsar Convention. Terrestrial and coastal sites generally have obvious hydrological or physical boundaries, whereas such boundaries are less obvious at sea. The smallest unit which would pass the demands set by the MCC is 1% of the bio-geographic population of a particular species concentrated in an area (site) supporting a density exceeding a value equivalent of four times the average density of the species in the investigated regional sea. The effect of choosing smaller or larger reference densities is tested. The results indicate that the chosen threshold density is a suitable requirement for the inclusion of the most important areas for seabird species with at least 25% of their bio-geographic population occurring in the studied regions of the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. The test cases indicate that provided the MCC is based on geo-statistical analyses of un-biased survey data the boundaries of areas holding large concentrations of seabirds can be estimated with confidence. The MCC could be used to identify concentrations of seabirds and other marine animals of conservation priority and to rank marine areas by their cumulative importance to different species. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

In this study, acoustic and visual time series of harbour porpoise occurrence were analysed from the Horns Reef area, eastern North Sea, aiming at resolving periodicity, spatial scale of aggregation and habitat drivers in porpoises. A total of 51 fine-scale surveys and 474 d of hydrophone deployment at 2 stations were analysed by partial least squares regression and spatial modelling in relation to synoptic (spatio-temporal) data derived from a local, high-resolution hydrodynamic model. Small-scale changes in local currents reflecting upwelling driven by the interaction of the semi-diurnal tidal currents with the steep slopes of the bank were the main habitat driver identified from the acoustic as well as the survey data. Spatial modelling based on selected key predictor variables showed the distribution of harbour porpoises to alternate between 2 upwelling cells depending on the direction of tidal currents. The size of upwelling cells was less than 10 km, matching the small-scale spatial structure of survey data as revealed by geostatistical analysis. The findings may have great implications for the design of future protected areas for harbour porpoises, and they indicate that the overlap between areas of concentration of the species and areas targeted by fisheries and the offshore wind industry could be avoided without major changes to current management practices. © Inter-Research 2008.",,173-186,,,373,,Mar.

Location: Continental Australia. Methods: 97,338 records were assembled, covering 75% of the continent. A neighbourhood analysis was applied to recorded locations for each species to measure richness and endemism for each half-degree grid square (c. 50 km) in the continent. This analysis was performed for all anurans, and also for each of the three main anuran families found in Australia. A Monte Carlo simulation was used to test a null hypothesis that observed centres of endemism could result simply from an unstructured overlapping of species ranges of different sizes. Results: Eleven main centres of anuran endemism were identified, the most important being the Wet Tropics and the south-west near Bunbury-Augusta and near Walpole. With the exception of south-western Australia, all of the identified significant endemic centres are in the northern half of the continent. The regions identified as significant for endemism differed from those identified for species richness and are more localized. Species richness is greatest in the Wet Tropics and the Border Ranges. High species richness also occurs in several areas not previously identified along the east and northern coasts. Main conclusions: Weighted endemism provides a new approach for determining significant areas for anuran conservation in Australia and areas can be identified that could be targeted for beneficial conservation gains. Patterns in endemism were found to vary markedly between the three main anuran families, and south-eastern Australia was found to be far less significant than indicated by previous studies. The need for further survey work in inland Australia is highlighted and several priority areas suggested. Our results for species richness remain broadly consistent with trends previously observed for the Australian Anura. © 2007 Commonwealth of Australia.",,583-596,,4,34,,J.

An analysis based on the ProtectedSeas database, which includes information on regulated activities, found that 85% of U.S. waters are in managed areas that restrict living resource extraction at some level above generally applicable regulations, with 52% managed at a low level of protection and 3% managed as highly protected no-take areas. States with the most state waters area in no-take MPAs are Hawaii (~25%), California (~9%), and Oregon (~3%). The majority of highly protected areas in U.S. waters exist in low-populated areas of the Pacific, such as the Papah?naumoku?kea and Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monuments. Under a quarter of U.S. waters are closed to bottom trawling, with the West Coast and Alaska each contributing one-third of trawl closures by area. Bottom trawling is prohibited in nearly 90% of West Coast waters. Focusing on waters off California showed that overlapping management and fishing gear restrictions can increase overall protection. In state waters, no-take MPAs account for roughly 9% of the area, while restricted take MPAs of different types cover 27% of the area. About 40% of California state waters are in some kind of MPA, while 13.4% of state waters have a high level of protection from fishing impacts. In federal waters off California, under one percent are in no-take areas while nearly all waters are subject to some kind of fishery restriction. Capturing regulatory information at the individual MPA and MMA level will improve assessments of current protection, inform planning of new protections, and provide ocean users a more accessible way to increase compliance through awareness. © 2020 The Authors",,,,,124,,Mar.

Wetlands perform many vital functions, in particular: accumulation and storage of surface waters; protection from storms and floods; strengthening the coastline and curbing water erosion; hydraulic connection with groundwater; surface water purification; nutrient content; deposit formation; pollutants retention; stabilization of local climatic conditions, especially the amount of precipitation and temperature of the near-surface layer of the atmosphere. They are the world's most productive ecosystems, focus of biodiversity, sources of water and primary productivity on which the existence of innumerable species of plants and animals depends. Wetlands support numerous species of birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish and invertebrates. The ecological character of wetlands is the totality of their ecosystem components, processes and services at one time or another. Wetland ecosystem services are understood as the benefits that people receive from these. These are providing services (water and food); regulatory services (reg-ulation of floods, droughts, land degradation, etc.); supporting services (soil formation, nutrient cycling, photosynthesis, biodiversity); cultural services (cultural and entertainment, spiritual, religious and other intangible benefits). In Ukraine, there are 2417 wetlands with a total area of about 255 million hectares. Among them are 50 wetlands of international importance with a total area of about 734 thousand hectares, a significant proportion of which falls on the territory of the North-Western Black Sea region coastal zone. The aim of this study is to determine the state, vulnerabilities and climate change impact on the ecosystem services of the «Chilia Branch» wetlands. Research Methodology. To determine the periods of drought, the study used the Standardised Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI) from April to October 1980-2023. The SPEI index was calculated at a point located in the southern part of the Danube Biosphere Reserve. The assessment of the state of the vegetation cover was carried out on the basis of the analysis of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) the period 2017-2023 at two sites (Ermakov Island and Limba Island). To analyze dynamics land cover in the wetland area, were used Sentinel-2 land use satellite imagery for the period 2017-2021. Results. Analysis of the SPEI index showed that during the study period there was a positive statistically significant linear trend towards an increase in dry conditions (0.26/ 10 years). In the period 1980-2023 during the growing season on the territory of the ""Chilia Branch"" wetland, there is a change in weather conditions towards arid, which poses a certain threat. At the same time, it should be noted that the unique hydrological complex of the Danube Delta has a mitigating effect of the atmospheric drought impact on the vegetation. Also, it should be noted that the threat to coastal wetlands is the anthropogenic transformation of coastal natural systems (urbanization processes, expansion of land for agricultural needs, pollution of soil and surface waters), which can lead to loss of habitats of living organisms and deterioration of ecosystem services. © Slizhe Mariia, Safranov Tamerlan, Berlinsky Nikolai, El Hadri Youssef, 2023.",,307-319,,59,2023,,Visn.

Support for sweetpotato improvement research in breeding and genetics programs, and maintenance of sweetpotato germplasm collections is essential for preserving food security for future generations. Germplasm collections seek to preserve phenotypic and genotypic diversity through accession characterization. However, due to its genetic complexity, high heterogeneity, polyploid genome, phenotypic plasticity, and high flower production variability, sweetpotato genetic characterization is challenging. Here, we characterize the genetic diversity and population structure of 604 accessions from the sweetpotato germplasm collection maintained by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Agricultural Research Service (ARS), Plant Genetic Resources Conservation Unit (PGRCU) in Griffin, Georgia, United States. Using the genotyping-by-sequencing platform (GBSpoly) and bioinformatic pipelines (ngsComposer and GBSapp), a total of 102,870 polymorphic SNPs with hexaploid dosage calls were identified from the 604 accessions. Discriminant analysis of principal components (DAPC) and Bayesian clustering identified six unique genetic groupings across seven broad geographic regions. Genetic diversity analyses using the hexaploid data set revealed ample genetic diversity among the analyzed collection in concordance with previous analyses. Following population structure and diversity analyses, breeder germplasm subsets of 24, 48, 96, and 384 accessions were established using K-means clustering with manual selection to maintain phenotypic and genotypic diversity. The genetic characterization of the PGRCU sweetpotato germplasm collection and breeder germplasm subsets developed in this study provide the foundation for future association studies and serve as precursors toward phenotyping studies aimed at linking genotype with phenotype.

The main subjects of protection are springs that outflow from the contact zone between Cretaceous limestones and slates. Due to a high vulnerability of shallow aquifers within the area of Cieszyn Foothills as well as urbanization and highly-developed industry of the Silesia region, a wide range of contaminants is detected in the spring water. Although microcomponents present in water of the mentioned area are often of geogenic origin, some micro-organic compounds, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), may occur as a result of human activities. In order to quantify PAHs in water from the springs and streams in the area of the Cieszyn Tufa Springs, 4 field campaigns were conducted in summer and autumn of 2017. The concentrations of 16 PAHs were determined using the GC-MS method. The total concentration of examined PAHs observed throughout the considered period ranged between 0.079 and 1.3938 µg/L. The obtained results revealed seasonal variability manifested by the increase in PAHs concentrations in autumn. In a few samples, the sum of the concentrations of 4 PAHs (benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(k)fluoranthene, benzo(ghi)perylene and indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene) exceeded the drinking water limit (0.1 µg/L). In addition, an attempt has been made to identify the source of target compounds using PAH diagnostic ratios. The comparison of PAHs’ ratios allows to make an assumption that a large proportion of tested compounds derives from car exhausts and low-stack emission and they probably were introduced to spring water through the deposition of air pollutants. © 2019, International Multidisciplinary Scientific Geoconference.

Shark catches recorded in the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission database indicate that shark data submissions have improved since the year 2000, but most of the landings are still not identified to species and are grouped as ""sharks."" Reported shark catches have generally been increasing since the early 1990s, partly because more countries are submitting records. Yet these represent only part of the true catch, most of which is likely discarded (or saved as fins only) and not logged. South African pelagic shark longline records and shark catches made by the Natal Sharks Board bather protection nets off KwaZulu-Natal are examined to reveal trends in catches. Quantification and validation of commercial shark catches by observer programs are urgently needed to estimate actual catches and effort. Improved data collection will allow for more accurate scientific assessment of catch trends and will enable fishery managers to formulate more effective measures that may lead to sustainable shark fisheries. Unfortunately, progress toward implementation of the Food and Agriculture Organization's Plan of Action for Sharks in the Indian Ocean region has been slow. Given the probable decline in shark populations over the last few decades, it is suggested that the feasibility of open ocean marine reserves be investigated with the aim of contributing toward greater marine ecosystem protection in the Indian Ocean. © 2008 by Blackwell Publishing Ltd.

The trade in manta ray gill plates has considerably increased over the last two decades. The resulting increases in ray mortality, in addition to mortality caused by by-catch, has caused many ray populations to decrease in size. The aim of this study was to ascertain how yearling and juvenile growth and survival, and adult survival and reproduction affect reef manta ray (Manta alfredi) population change, to increase our understanding of manta ray demography and thereby improve conservation research and measures for these fish. Methods. We developed a population projection model for reef manta rays, and used published life history data on yearling and juvenile growth and adult reproduction to parameterise the model. Because little is known about reef manta ray yearling and juvenile survival, we conducted our analyses using a range of plausible survival rate values for yearlings, juveniles and adults. Results. The model accurately captured observed variation in population growth rate, lifetime reproductive success and cohort generation time in different reef manta ray populations. Our demographic analyses revealed a range of population consequences in response to variation in demographic rates. For example, an increase in yearling or adult survival rates always elicited greater responses in population growth rate, lifetime reproductive success and cohort generation time than the same increase in juvenile survival rate. The population growth rate increased linearly, but lifetime reproductive success and cohort generation time increased at an accelerating rate with increasing yearling or adult survival rates. Hence, even a small increase in survival rate could increase lifetime reproductive success by one pup, and cohort generation time by several years. Elasticity analyses revealed that, depending on survival rate values of all life stages, the population growth rate is either most sensitive to changes in the rate with which juveniles survive but stay juveniles (i.e., do not mature into adults) or to changes in adult survival rate. However, when assessing these results against estimates on population growth and adult survival rates for populations off the coasts of Mozambique and Japan, we found that the population growth rate is predicted to be always most sensitive to changes in the adult survival rate. Discussion. It is important to gain an in-depth understanding of reef manta ray life histories, particularly of yearling and adult survival rates, as these can influence reef manta ray population dynamics in a variety of ways. For declining populations in particular, it is crucial to know which life stage should be targeted for their conservation. For one such declining population off the coast of Mozambique, adult annual survival rate has the greatest effect on population growth, and by increasing adult survival by protecting adult aggregation sites, this population's decline could be halted or even reversed. © 2016 Smallegange et al.",,,,8,2016,,PeerJ,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: PeerJ Inc.,,,,adolescent; adult; Conservation; demography; elasticity; growth rate; Japan; life history; Life-history speed; Marine protected areas; mortality; Mozambique; nonhuman; Perturbation analysis; population dynamics; Population dynamics; Population fluctuations; population growth; population model; population projection; Population projection model; reproductive success; seashore; survival rate; wildlife; Wildlife trade; yearling,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A thriving planet cannot be one that contains widespread human suffering or stifles human potential; and a thriving humanity cannot exist on a dying planet. While the field of marine conservation is increasingly considering human well-being, it retains a legacy in some places of protectionism, colonialism, and fortress conservation. Here, we i) provide an overview of human rights principles and how they relate to marine conservation, ii) document cases where tensions have occurred between marine conservation goals and human rights, iii) review the legal and ethical obligations, and practical benefits, for marine conservation to support human rights, and iv) provide practical guidance on integrating human rights principles into marine conservation. We argue that adopting a human rights-based approach to marine conservation, that is integrating equity as a rights-based condition rather than a charitable principle, will not only help meet legal and ethical obligations to respect, protect, and fulfil human rights, but will also result in greater and more enduring conservation impact.

Effectively managing small-scale fisheries is, therefore, crucial to progressing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Co-management and community-based fisheries management are widely considered the most appropriate forms of governance for many small-scale fisheries. We outlined relationships between small-scale fisheries co-management and attainment of the SDGs, including evidence for impacts and gaps in dominant logic. We identified 11 targets across five SDGs to which small-scale fisheries co-management (including community-based fisheries management) can contribute; the theory of change by which these contributions could be achieved; and the strength of evidence for progress toward SDG targets related to various co-management strategies. Our theory of change links the 11 SDG targets by qualifying that progress toward some targets is contingent on others being achieved first. We then reviewed 58 case studies of co-management impacts from the Pacific Islands––a region rich in local marine governance––to evaluate evidence of where, to what degree, and with how much certainty different co-management strategies conferred positive impacts to each SDG target. These strategies included access restrictions, permanent area closures, periodic closures, and gear and species restrictions. Although many studies provide evidence linking multiple co-management strategies to improvements in resource status (SDG 14.4), there was limited evidence of follow-on effects, such as improvements in catch (SDG 2.3, 2.4), livelihoods (SDG 1.2), consumption (SDG 2.1), and nutrition (SDG 2.2). Our findings suggest that leaps of logic and assumptions are prevalent in co-management planning and evaluation. Hence, when evaluating co-management impacts against the SDGs, consideration of ultimate goals is required, otherwise, there is a risk of shortfalls between aspirations and impact. © 2022 The Authors.

While community-based and systematic approaches to establishing marine protected areas have their strengths and weaknesses, comparisons of their effectiveness often fail to explicitly address potential impact. Here, we predict conservation impact to compare recently implemented community-based marine reserves in Tonga to a systematic configuration specifically aimed at maximizing impact. Boosted regression tree outputs indicated that fishing pressure accounted for ?24% of variation in target species biomass. We estimate that the community-based approach provides 84% of the recovery potential of the configuration with the greatest potential impact. This high potential impact results from community-based reserves being located close to villages, where fishing pressure is greatest. These results provide strong support for community-based marine management, with short-term benefits likely to accrue even where there is little scope for systematic reserve design. © 2018 The Authors.

However, most evaluations of their efficacy use only a narrow set of conservation indicators that reflect a fraction of ways in which protection can succeed or fail. In this paper, we examine three case studies of partially protected coral reef fishery systems to evaluate benefits and risks of their use as a management tool. We use data from community-based management arrangements in three Pacific Island countries to demonstrate three vignettes of how partial protection can boost fisheries production, enhance the ease with which fishers catch their prey, and alter the composition of fisheries yields. These changes in fisheries productivity, catchability, and vulnerability under partial protection carry substantial benefits for fishers. However, they also carry significant risks for ecosystems and fisheries livelihoods unless adaptively managed so as to confer the short to medium term benefits in resource performance without risking longer term sustainability. © 2022 by the author(s).

Opportunity costs represent the forgone benefits that would have flowed in the absence of conservation interventions. To the extent that opportunity costs reflect lost opportunities for extractive uses (e.g., fishing or logging), and to the extent that those extractive uses present threats to nature, opportunity costs therefore reflect the positive differences for natural values that can be made through conservation management. Thus, logic dictates that, if conservationists make choices to minimize opportunity costs, they are also necessarily limiting their impact. Unfortunately, empirical evidence from many conservation contexts implies that conservationists indeed make choices consistent with an aim to minimize opportunitycosts, and hence impact. A better understanding of the relationship between opportunity costs and conservation impact will make the language used to communicate conservation progress, targets, and planning more honest and accountable and more explicitly focused on the differences our actions make. © 2022 The Authors.

However, compliance with such measures is rarely quantified. Aerial and land-based coastal observation surveys were conducted within Ningaloo Marine Park, north-western Australia, with the aim of identifying the spatio-temporal distribution of recreational fishing as well as quantifying participation and zoning compliance. During aerial and coastal surveys, a recreational activity type was identified for 73% and 65% of observed vessels, respectively. About 16-17% of vessels were identified as being engaged in recreational fishing and, of these, 8-12% were observed while fishing in sanctuary zones. For people undertaking shore-based recreation, identification of activity type increased to 97% for aerial surveys and 100% for coastal surveys. Participation in shore-based recreational fishing was 9% for both survey methods and 2-4% of these fishers were observed in sanctuary zones. Peak visitor months (April-October) had a wider spatial distribution and higher density of shore and vessel-based fishers. Interviews with recreational fishers enabled collection of data about knowledge of zoning, and compliance with bag and size limits. For repeat visitors, 87% could correctly identify the location of the nearest sanctuary zone; for first time visitors this dropped to 52%. About 75% of both visitor types stated that these zones had not affected their fishing activity. No fishers had reached their bag limit and only two undersized fish were recorded in the examined catches. The multi-faceted survey approach revealed that aerial and coastal surveys produced similar data on non-compliance. Such data can be used to develop site-specific enforcement and education activities as well as providing support for planning and management of marine parks. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.",,40-50,,,125-126,,Fish.

Similar information is often required for small-scale recreational fisheries and other spatial management areas. Data from four state-wide recreational fishing surveys in Western Australia were evaluated using grid- and location-based direct estimation approaches to determine whether effort and total catch could be estimated robustly for small-scale geographical areas. Marine protected areas (MPAs) were selected as case studies, and robustness of the various approaches was assessed based on acceptable sample size and uncertainty. Effort and total catch (number retained and released across all species) were robustly estimated for 19 MPAs. Total catch was also robustly estimated for 32 teleost species across multiple MPAs. Robust estimates were less likely for offshore MPAs than coastal MPAs, with lower sample sizes associated with greater distance from boat ramps and population centres. Grid-based approaches were therefore generally more appropriate for offshore MPAs, while location-based approaches were more appropriate for coastal MPAs. This study demonstrates how existing monitoring of broad-scale recreational fisheries fulfils a need for similar data in small-scale recreational fisheries, thereby allowing for the efficient use of resources that benefit fisheries management and conservation objectives. © 2022 Commonwealth of Australia.

We provide a comprehensive analysis of vertical and horizontal woody vegetation structure across one of the oldest savanna fire experiments, using new airborne Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology. We developed and compared high-resolution woody vegetation height surfaces for a series of large experimental burn plots in the Kruger National Park, South Africa. These 7-ha plots (total area ? 1500 ha) have been subjected to fire in different seasons and at different frequencies, as well as no-burn areas, for 54 years. Long-term exposure to fire caused a reduction in woody vegetation up to the 5.0-7.5 m height class, although most reduction was observed up to 4 m. Average fire intensity was positively correlated with changes in woody vegetation structure. More frequent fires reduced woody vegetation cover more than less frequent fires, and dry-season fires reduced woody vegetation more than wet-season fires. Spring fires from the late dry season reduced woody vegetation cover the most, and summer fires from the wet season reduced it the least. Fire had a large effect on structure in the densely wooded granitic landscapes as compared to the more open basaltic landscapes, although proportionally, the woody vegetation was more reduced in the drier than in the wetter landscapes. We show that fire frequency and fire season influence patterns of vegetation three-dimensional structure, which may have cascading consequences for biodiversity. Managers of savannas can therefore use fire frequency and season in concert to achieve specific vegetation structural objectives. © 2010 by the Ecological Society of America.",,1865-1875,,7,20,,Ecol.

This study compares the natural cover remaining within South Africa's PA network to a 5-km buffer zone around PAs. This comparison acts as an indicator of the imminent threats posed to PAs by nearby land use changes and as a measure of the integrity of natural land cover within them. This is done by comparing satellite-derived land cover classes (natural/semi-natural; agriculture; built-up/mining) collected over three decades within PAs and buffers across various PA sizes, in different biomes and across a rainfall gradient. Results show that South Africa's PAs, which cover nearly 10 % of the country, have more natural land cover than their associated buffer zones. Larger and low-rainfall PAs retain the highest natural cover. However, natural cover drops by 14.8 % just 1 km outside PAs, mirroring the national average natural cover outside PAs. Significant land cover change occurs within the 5-km buffer, especially in high-rainfall areas and around smaller PAs, with the most pronounced changes in the Indian Ocean Coastal Belt, Fynbos, and Grassland biomes. These changes in the buffer limit PA expansion opportunities and pose risks to their integrity. To meet global conservation targets and human needs, setting land aside for conservation must be complemented by additional initiatives. Beyond protecting natural landscapes within, PAs should promote sustainable land use beyond their boundaries. We argue for new area-based conservation measures that balance ecological, social, and financial goals, fostering better integration of conservation and production landscapes. © 2024",,,,,300,,Biol.

However, baseline data are seldom available, and a comprehensive understanding of what good ecological condition is or how to measure it is often lacking. In the absence of true baselines, well established and effective marine protected areas (MPAs) can be used to approximate reference conditions. Thus, the aim of this study was to use effective no-take MPAs to identify suitable indicators that can be used for condition assessments of rocky reefs in South Africa. To achieve this, we tested the response of two types of metrics (compositional and size-based), using in situ fish and benthic community data, to three levels of human pressures in two ecoregions in South Africa. Results showed that traditionally-used structural metrics, such as total abundance or species richness, were less responsive than size-based metrics, including total biomass, average length and proportion of mature fish. Rocky reef ecosystems exposed to low anthropogenic pressure were characterised by a higher biomass, average length and proportion of mature and large (>30 cm) fish than reefs with moderate and high pressures. Benthic communities appeared more resilient than fish communities to the typical human pressures in the study region. Overall, the greatest effect of pressure was observed in the heavily impacted sub-tropical Natal Shelf Ecoregion, while rocky reefs in the warm-temperate Agulhas Shelf Ecoregion appeared to be in better condition than expected. This study identified assemblage patterns and indicators that appeared responsive and sensitive to different levels of human pressure, which can be used to infer good and poor ecological condition of rocky reef ecosystems. These results indicate which species (e.g., target species) and traits (e.g., size) are most vulnerable to local human pressures and will be suitable for condition assessments. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,154,,Ecol.

Despite extensive conservation and restoration effort, evidence of successful population recovery is rare. In this work, we document mass mortality events of pink and green abalone (Haliotis corrugata and Haliotis fulgens) in 2009–2010, and their subsequent rapid recovery following the continued enforcement and monitoring of two voluntary no-take reserves by the local fishing cooperative (2006–present) and a 6-year fishing closure (2012–2017) around Isla Natividad, Baja California Sur, Mexico. Age data collected from harvested abalone in 2019 suggest recruitment was maintained throughout the years when abundance was lowest following mass mortalities. The observed 6 to 8-year time frame for recovery is consistent with scenarios presented in previous modeling studies, where marine reserves and other measures aimed at protecting large spawners predicted the potential for rapid recovery of abalone populations. This case study supports the effectiveness of a portfolio of resilience strategies, which include combining climate refugia and marine reserves, adherence to conservative annual fishing quotas, fishing closures, minimum size limitations, and ecological monitoring. Importantly, this example showcases how close collaboration between fishers, resource managers, scientists, and non-governmental organization (NGOs) is critical for designing, implementing, and learning from conservation and management interventions to reverse marine population and ecosystem decline, reinforcing the legacy of Dr. Pete Peterson's life work on fully integrating ecology with marine management and restoration. © 2022 The Authors.

Citizen scientists reported 358 sharks comprising of 10 species/groups, with 3.11 sharks observed per hour. Twelve percent of all sharks sighted in this study were regarded as potentially dangerous to humans. This is the first scientific study of shark depredation for spearfishing. C. amblyrhynchos were primarily responsible for depredation, with 5.9% of speared fish taken. Sixty percent of interviewees perceived that shark numbers have increased in the past 10 years. We developed and applied a method to quantify spearfisher effort and catch, shark interactions and shark depredation in a boat-based recreational spearfishing competition in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park in Queensland. Survey questions were designed to collect targeted quantitative data whilst minimising the survey burden of spearfishers. We provide the first known scientific study of shark depredation during a recreational spearfishing competition and the first scientific study of shark depredation in the Great Barrier Reef region. During the two-day spearfishing competition, nine vessels with a total of 33 spearfishers reported a catch of 144 fish for 115 h of effort (1.25 fish per hour). A subset of the catch comprised nine eligible species under competition rules, of which 47 pelagic fish were weighed. The largest fish captured was a 34.4 kg Sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus). The most common species captured and weighed was Spanish Mackerel (Scomberomorus commerson). The total weight of eligible fish was 332 kg and the average weight of each fish was 7.1 kg. During the two-day event, spearfishers functioned as citizen scientists and counted 358 sharks (115 h effort), averaging 3.11 sharks per hour. Grey Reef Sharks (Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos) comprised 64% of sightings. Nine speared fish were fully depredated by sharks as spearfishers attempted to retrieve their catch, which equates to a depredation rate of 5.9%. The depredated fish included four pelagic fish and five reef fish. The shark species responsible were Grey Reef Shark (C. amblyrhynchos) (66%), Bull Shark (Carcharhinus leucas) (11%), Whitetip Reef Shark (Triaenodon obesus) (11%) and Great Hammerhead (Sphyrna mokarran) (11%). There were spatial differences in fish catch, shark sightings and rates of depredation. We developed a report card that compared average catch of fish, sightings of sharks per hour and depredation rate by survey area, which assists recreational fishers and marine park managers to assess spatio-temporal changes. The participating spearfishers can be regarded as experienced (average 18 days a year for average 13.4 years). Sixty percent of interviewees perceived that shark numbers have increased in the past 10 years, 33% indicated no change and 7% indicated shark numbers had decreased.

The wolf recovery goal is to restore an equitably distributed metapopulation of ?30 breeding pairs and 300 wolves in Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming, while minimizing damage to livestock; ultimately, the objective is to establish state-managed conservation programs for wolf populations in NRM. Previously, wolves were eradicated from the NRM because of excessive human killing. We used AndersenGill hazard models to assess biological, habitat, and anthropogenic factors contributing to current wolf mortality risk and whether federal protection was adequate to provide acceptably low hazards. We radiocollared 711 wolves in Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming (e.g., NRM region of the United States) from 1982 to 2004 and recorded 363 mortalities. Overall, annual survival rate of wolves in the recovery areas was 0.750 (95 CI 0.7280.772), which is generally considered adequate for wolf population sustainability and thereby allowed the NRM wolf population to increase. Contrary to our prediction, wolf mortality risk was higher in the northwest Montana (NWMT) recovery area, likely due to less abundant public land being secure wolf habitat compared to other recovery areas. In contrast, lower hazards in the Greater Yellowstone Area (GYA) and central Idaho (CID) likely were due to larger core areas that offered stronger wolf protection. We also found that wolves collared for damage management purposes (targeted sample) had substantially lower survival than those collared for monitoring purposes (representative sample) because most mortality was due to human factors (e.g., illegal take, control). This difference in survival underscores the importance of human-caused mortality in this recovering NRM population. Other factors contributing to increased mortality risk were pup and yearling age class, or dispersing status, which was related to younger age cohorts. When we included habitat variables in our analysis, we found that wolves having abundant agricultural and private land as well as livestock in their territory had higher mortality risk. Wolf survival was higher in areas with increased wolf density, implying that secure core habitat, particularly in GYA and CID, is important for wolf protection. We failed to detect changes in wolf hazards according to either gender or season. Maintaining wolves in NWMT will require greater attention to human harvest, conflict resolution, and illegal mortality than in either CID or GYA; however, if human access increases in the future in either of the latter 2 areas hazards to wolves also may increase. Indeed, because overall suitable habitat is more fragmented and the NRM has higher human access than many places where wolves roam freely and are subject to harvest (e.g., Canada and AK), monitoring of wolf vital rates, along with concomitant conservation and management strategies directed at wolves, their habitat, and humans, will be important for ensuring long-term viability of wolves in the region. © The Wildlife Society.",,620-634,,4,74,,J.

MPAs are spatial tools used to preserve the ecological integrity and biodiversity of an area, protecting ecosystem functions, species and habitats for future generations. In 2015, the Canadian government committed to increasing protection of its coastal and marine areas up to 10% by 2020. To reach this goal, the Federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) is currently in the process of designing and implementing a network of MPAs in the Maritimes Region, on the Atlantic coast of Canada. The design process needs to consider population connectivity, which in turn requires an understanding of life-histories for target species (i.e. the movement of adults and the dispersal of larval life-stages). The population parameters that repeatedly emerge as necessary for deriving estimates of MPA dimensions include the spatial distribution of the conservation priority (species or habitat), movement patterns and oceanographic processes. A decision tree was developed that uses information on species larval dispersal, and juvenile, and adult movement to provide guidelines that can inform definition of size and spacing of individual MPAs in a network. Case studies of species targeted for protection on the Scotian Shelf are presented, to illustrate its use. The decision tree can be used as a tool to help design networks that ensure population connectivity where there is a paucity of biological information, or as a quality control method for assessing other spatial design tools. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,269-278,,,88,,Mar.

We present an analysis to quantify the fine-scale economic impact of time-area closures: the ‘lost economic opportunity’, which is the percentage of total potential profit for an entire fishing season that occurs within and during a time-area closure. Our analysis integrates a spatially explicit and environment-informed catch model with a utility model that quantifies fishing revenues and costs, and thus incorporates a dynamic target species distribution in the estimated economic impact of a closure. We demonstrate this approach by evaluating the economic impact of the Loggerhead Conservation Area (LCA) on California's drift gillnet swordfish Xiphias gladius fishery. The lost economic opportunity due to the LCA time-area closure ranged from 0% to 6% per season, with variation due to port location and trip duration, as well as inter-annual changes in swordfish distribution. This increased by 40%–90% when a seasonally varying swordfish price was considered. There was a clear signal in economic impact associated with a shift from warm to cool conditions in the California Current following the 1998 El Nińo, with increased lost economic opportunity from 1999. This signal was due to higher swordfish catch inside the LCA during the cool phase, associated with increased water column mixing, and due to higher catches outside the LCA in the warmer phase, associated with increased sea-surface temperature. Synthesis and applications. We found small economic impact from a fishery closure, but with meaningful inter-annual variation due to environmental change and the dynamic distribution of a target species. Our approach could be used to help determine the timing of closures, simulate impacts of proposed closures and, more generally, assess some economic consequences of climate-induced shifts in species’ ranges. © 2019 The Authors.

When the development of national and subnational frameworks to meet global commitments are conducted in isolation, the opportunity is lost to: (1) leverage co-benefits from the same investment; (2) use resources more efficiently; and (3) ensure that one action does not negatively affect another policy priority. For example, investments in greenhouse gas reduction have the potential either to positively impact biodiversity and sustainable development, or to result in unintended negative consequences; chances of positive synergies are greatly increased by cooperation and joint policy, planning and implementation. The challenge now is to learn lessons from the vast and diverse number of approaches being tried around the world and to enhance co-benefits. This paper describes the major inter-linkages between global commitments for conservation and development. It demonstrates the importance of enhancing synergies among global agreements and avoiding unintended and negative consequences, particularly on biodiversity, by providing examples of best practices and describing some of the pitfalls that occur when implementation of one agreement does not explicitly seek to enhance co-benefits with other agreements.

First, several technical issues need to be addressed to ensure the scientific defensibility of any conservation planning project. These include identifying which conservation features should be represented in an MPA system, developing a system for setting representation targets, and identifying which data should be included to minimize conflict with human uses of the sea. Second, it is necessary for researchers to engage at an early stage with those responsible for implementation and recognize that reserve selection should be part of a broader conservation planning process centred on a stakeholder-developed implementation strategy.

There is thus a clear need to find reliable indicator taxa that can be targeted in marine conservation studies, providing cost-effective data for planning and monitoring. Using the rocky shores of the Solitary Islands Marine Park, NSW, Australia, as a model, I evaluated macroinvertebrates and determined which taxa (i) best reflected ecological patterns of the broader intertidal community; and (ii) were able to accurately predict species richness of assemblages at the headland scale. Both molluscs and crustaceans showed high levels of correlation with overall species richness. However, molluscs, and in particular prosobranchs, most closely reflected patterns in the community data and provided the most accurate predictions of species richness at the scale of the headland. The potential time savings of using molluscs in rapid assessments are considerable and relate to reductions in field time (by up to 40%) as well as the reduced need to invest time developing extensive taxonomic knowledge of other invertebrate groups. Molluscs are widespread and easily sampled, with stable taxonomy and well-known ecology relative to other marine invertebrate taxa. Their use as surrogates of biodiversity shows great potential for future marine conservation studies. © Springer 2005.",,3565-3576,,14,14,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,ASSEMBLAGES; biodiversity; Biodiversity; COMMUNITY STRUCTURE; CONSERVATION; Crustacea; DIVERSITY; EASTERN AUSTRALIA; HIGHER-TAXON RICHNESS; INDICATOR TAXON; Invertebrata; invertebrates; Invertebrates; MARINE BIODIVERSITY; methodology; Mollusca; molluscs; Molluscs; rapid assessment; Rapid assessment; rocky shore; rocky shores; Rocky shores; species inventory; SPECIES RICHNESS; surrogate; Surrogate; SURROGATE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I argue here that within southern South America, rainforests of the Chilean Coastal Range should be the primary target for new conservation efforts. Historically, most protected areas in southern South America have been designated to preserve forests above 600 m, mainly in the Andes. However, Coastal Range forests have higher species richness and are under greater threat than Andean forests at similar latitudes. Coastal forests are characterized by the presence of numerous narrow-range endemics, among them two monotypic plant families. The higher frequency of endemic species in Coastal Range forests is attributed to its more stable biogeographic history compared to the Andes, particularly during the glacial events of the Quaternary. Due to the extent of human impact, the remaining fragments of coastal forests are quite distant from one another, and are disconnected from the larger protected areas of Andean forests. Only 439000 ha of Valdivian coastal forest still remain, including some remnants of primary forest. New private or public reserves should be created to protect the last remnants of continuous forest remaining on the Coastal Range of the Valdivian region (40-42° S). A different conservation strategy should be applied north of 40° S, where protected areas are too small and fragments are too scattered to maintain viable populations of most vertebrates. In this latter area, I recommend expanding existing reserves, restoring native forests, and interconnecting remnant forests through a corridor network.",,373-393,,,13,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 2 Journal Abbreviation: Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,anthropogenic effect; biodiversity; Chile; coastal zone; Conservation endangered species; endemism; habitat conservation; habitat fragmentation; Habitat fragmentation; Habitat loss; rainforest; South America; temperate forest; Valdivia; Vertebrata,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Biodiversity and Conservation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Here, conservation objectives come into conflict with competing interests such as agriculture. Elephants regularly damage crops, which threatens livelihoods and undermines local support for conservation. For damage reduction efforts to be successful, limited resources must be used efficiently and strategies for mitigation and prevention should be informed by an understanding of the spatial and temporal distribution of crop damage. We assessed historical records of crop damage by elephants to describe the dynamics and context of damage in the western Serengeti. We used binary data and generalized additive models to predict the probability of crop damage at the village level in relation to landscape features and metrics of human disturbance. During 2012-2014 there were 3,380 reports of crop damage by elephants submitted to authorities in 42 villages. Damage was concentrated in villages adjacent to a reserve boundary and peaked during periods of crop maturity and harvest. The village-level probability of crop damage was negatively associated with distance from a reserve, positively with length of the boundary shared with a reserve, and peaked at moderate levels of indicators of human presence. Spatially aggregated historical records can provide protected area managers and regional government agencies with important insights into the distribution of conflict across the landscape and between seasons, and can guide efforts to optimize resource allocation and future land use planning efforts.

A recent such initiative in the South Atlantic has important social and ecological implications that have not been discussed in existing literature. In light of this knowledge gap, this article aims to discuss the implementation of MPA networks in the St. Peter and St. Paul´s archipelago and the Vitória-Trindade seamount chain (~1000 km from the Brazilian coast). The participatory process conducted by the Brazilian Federal government created LMPAs networks that integrate multiple-use zones centered on certain natural monuments (islands) and spanning a radius of 200 nautical miles around these islands. With these LMPAs (together covering ~920,000 km2), Brazil increases its MPA coverage from 1.5% to ~ 25% of its EEZ (Exclusive Economic Zone). However, even with this high percentage of protection, many important coastal ecosystems are not yet protected in Brazilian waters. These LMPAs can be an important step towards the conservation of biodiversity and ecosystem services of terrestrial insular, shallow, mesophotic, and deep-sea ecosystems. Owing to this importance, it is necessary to ensure adequate surveillance, participative governance, as well as an adequate management plan to deal with the increase in human pressures (fishing, mining, plastics, and climate-change stressors). This paper discusses strategies for the establishment of ocean zoning (including no-take zones) and large-scale marine spatial planning to improve management effectiveness.

In this article, we discuss this new invasion, focusing on a roadmap for urgent mitigation of the problem, as well as focused research and management strategies. The invasion in Brazil is already in the consolidation stage, with 352 individuals recorded so far (2020–2023) along 2766 km of coastline. This includes both juveniles and adults, including egg-bearing females, ranging in length from 9.1 to 38.5 cm. Until now, most of the records in the Brazilian coast occurred in the equatorial southwestern Atlantic (99%), mainly on the Amazon mesophotic reefs (15% of the records), northeastern coast of Brazil (45%), and the Fernando de Noronha Archipelago (41%; an UNESCO World Heritage Site with high endemism rate). These records cover a broad depth range (1–110 m depth), twelve protected areas, eight Brazilian states (Amapá, Pará, Maranhăo, Piauí, Ceará, Rio Grande do Norte, Paraíba, and Pernambuco) and multiple habitats (i.e., mangrove estuaries, shallow-water and mesophotic reefs, seagrass beds, artificial reefs, and sandbanks), indicating a rapid and successful invasion process in Brazilian waters. In addition, the lack of local knowledge of rare and/or cryptic native species that are potentially vulnerable to lionfish predation raises concerns regarding the potential overlooked ecological impacts. Thus, we call for an urgent integrated approach with multiple stakeholders and solution-based ecological research, real-time inventories, update of environmental and fishery legislation, participatory monitoring supported by citizen science, and a national and unified plan aimed at decreasing the impact of lionfish invasion.

We provide the first synthetic assessment of short-term ecological impacts of the most extensive oil spill in tropical oceans, which affected 2900 km of Brazil's coastline in 2019. Oil ingestion, changes in sex ratio and size of animals, morphological abnormalities of larvae and eggs, mutagenic, behavioral, and morphological alterations, contamination by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and mortality were detected. A decrease in species richness and abundance of oil-sensitive animals, an increase in opportunistic and oil-tolerant organisms, and simplification of communities was observed. The impacts were observed in sponges, corals, mollusks, crustaceans, polychaetes, echinoderms, turtles, birds, fish, and mammals. The majority of studies were conducted on bioindicator substrate-associated organisms, with 68.4% of the studies examining the benthos, 21.2% the nekton, and 10.4% the plankton. Moreover, most of the current short-term impacts assessment studies were focused on the species level (66.7%), with fewer studies on the community level (19%), and even fewer on oil-affected ecosystems (14.3%). Oil-related impacts were detected in five sensitive habitats, including blue-carbon ecosystems (e.g., mangroves and seagrass beds) and coastal reefs. These results call for the development of new ocean-basin observation systems for orphan spills. Finally, we discuss how these mysterious oil spills from unknown sources pose a risk to sustainable development goals and ocean-based actions to tackle global climate change. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,187,,Mar.

Methods: The research was conducted at sampling sites located within and outside of the CU in the Alto Uruguai region, southern Brazil, and included two stages: (i) the collection of benthic macroinvertebrates and (ii) the application of a Rapid Assessment Protocol (RAP) to characterise the habitat quality. Results: A total of 1,362 benthic macroinvertebrates were collected during the study, totalling 30 taxa. The densities within and outside the CU were significantly different (F= 160.08; p= 0.05), and the Shannon diversity and taxa richness followed the same pattern (F= 118.72, p= 0.05; and F= 176.33, p= 0.04, respectively). In contrast, the Pielou equitability did not differ within and outside the CU (F= 0.19, p= 0.74). The biotic index (Biological Monitoring Working Party) indicated that water quality was good or very good in the majority of cases. Most of the sampling sites were classified as 'natural' according to the RAP. The taxa richness was significantly related to habitat diversity (F= 7.24; p = 0.05), but no significant relationship was found between the habitat diversity and the Shannon diversity (F= 2.13, p = 0.22). Conclusion: The CU was effective for the conservation of water quality and the freshwater biodiversity of benthic macroinvertebrates. The results show that the environmental integrity was related to the distribution of benthic macroinvertebrates, primarily to the taxa richness. More detailed investigations need to be developed to better understand these relationships and to take into account the temporal scale. An analysis of the most significant sources of stress on the aquatic life outside the area is recommended.",,442-450,,4,25,,Acta Limnol.

However, for good and reliable results, it is recommended to perform the evaluability assessment prior to any evaluation to determine whether an MCA can be evaluated or not. This study aims to assess the evaluability of MCAs managed by the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries (MMAF) by reviewing their management plans and effectiveness evaluation tools. By employing a qualitative approach, this study found that (i) the management plans are not conceived to support an effective management of MCAs in the field or the evaluation of management effectiveness; and (ii) the current guidelines for evaluating MCA management effectiveness do not evaluate the expected achievements of management actions relative to biodiversity conservation goals and objectives. As a result, MCAs under MMAF direct supervision are not evaluable, and hence, the evaluations are pointless from a biodiversity conservation perspective. To address this discrepancy, it is recommended that the management effectiveness evaluation should only be applied to MCAs with an effectiveness-oriented management plan and should employ tools or guidelines that are devised to evaluate the achievement of MCA conservation goals and objectives. © Ilmu Kelautan, UNDIP",,61-72,,1,27,,Ilmu Kelautan: Indonesian J.

The target states: ‘by 2020, at least 17 per cent of terrestrial and inland water areas and 10 per cent of coastal and marine areas, especially areas of particular importance for biodiversity and ecosystem services, are conserved through effectively and equitably managed, ecologically representative and well-connected systems of protected areas and other effective area-based conservation measures, and integrated into the wider landscape and seascape’. Indonesia has been committed to set aside 20 million hectares of its coastal and marine waters for biodiversity conservation by 2020, en route to achieving the national target of at least 30 million hectares in the future. Here we demonstrate how the development and expansion of marine protected areas (MPAs) at the local level is crucial if the national government is to achieve the target. Using West Nusa Tenggara (WNT) Province as a case study, we describe the current achievements as well as plans for expanding marine conservation areas in the province by 2020. Despite challenges along the way, by 2016 the province managed to set aside 229,555.36 ha for biodiversity conservation thanks to the district governments’ efforts for establishing MPAs in their respective region. This figure covers approximately 7.87% of the province’s marine waters and contributed 1.25% to the national target of marine conservation areas in 2017. Intelligent preparation of the province’s coastal and small islands zoning plan will provide opportunities to allocate around 100,000 ha more to the WNT coastal and marine waters for conservation areas. With this addition, the total area is estimated to reach around 330,000 ha or approximately 10.29% of the province’s marine waters and would contribute 1.50% to the national target of marine conservation areas by 2020.

One example from wetland management would be that wildlife biologists must decide when to draw down water levels to optimise aquatic invertebrates as food for breeding ducks. Once such a decision is identified, a system or tool to help them make that decision in the face of current and projected climate conditions could be developed. We examined a random sample of 100 papers published from 2001-2011 in Environmental Modelling and Software that used the phrase ""decision support system"" or ""decision support tool"", and which are characteristic of different sectors. In our review, 41% of the systems and tools related to the water resources sector, 34% were related to agriculture, and 22% to the conservation of fish, wildlife, and protected area management. Only 60% of the papers were deemed to be reporting on DSS. This was based on the papers reviewed not having directly identified a specific decision to be supported. We also report on the techniques that were used to identify the decisions, such as formal survey, focus group, expert opinion, or sole judgment of the author(s). The primary underlying modelling system, e.g., expert system, agent based model, Bayesian belief network, geographical information system (GIS), and the like was categorised next. Finally, since decision support typically should target some aspect of unstructured decisions, we subjectively determined to what degree this was the case. In only 23% of the papers reviewed, did the system appear to tackle unstructured decisions. This knowledge should be useful in helping workers in the field develop more effective systems and tools, especially by being exposed to the approaches in different, but related, disciplines. We propose that a standard blueprint for reporting on DSS be developed for consideration by journal editors to aid them in filtering papers that use the term, ""decision support"".",,73-80,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: iEMSs - Managing Resour.

Those within protected areas represent a natural and cultural landscape asset and learning opportunity in many areas of the Mediterranean basin, especially in the coastal zones. Other than the transformations made by humans in the past, many factors influence the ecological dynamics of these forest ecosystems, such as an increase in the pressure of wild animals or the impact of global warming. This study aims to detect the changes in the Mediterranean vegetation growth rate over 21 years, from 2000 to 2020, by a satellite remote sensing multi-temporal monitoring approach. The proposed framework was applied in the state natural reserve “Duna Feniglia” in the province of Grosseto (central Italy), a restored forest ecosystem dominated by the stone pine (Pinus pinea L.), a forest type characteristic of the Italian coastal landscape. A multispectral vegetation index was evaluated as a proxy of forest productivity by means of trend curves analysis. Forest functionality (vigor) was also evaluated by developing a productivity state indicator, allowing for the detection of current changes in primary productivity as compared to a medium-term baseline period. The presented monitoring data can support decision-making tool for an ecological management of the reserve, identifying potential areas of high vulnerability where to conduct new restoration action aimed to stop or prevent ecosystem degradation. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,1219-1228,,,337 LNCE,,,,,,,,Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Lect.

The extent to which these marine and estuarine protected areas (EPAs) represent marine fish species and communities was assessed by comparing their species compositions with those of exploited areas, as sampled using four fishing techniques. Seven hundred fish species were sampled, representing one-third of South Africa's marine fishes. MPAs in coastal habitats scored c. 40% on the Bray-Curtis measure of similarity for species representativeness, but this score declined markedly for offshore 'trawlable' fishing grounds. The combined effects of sampling error, temporal variation and the effects of fishing on relative abundance suggest that 80% similarity would be the maximum achieveable. Forty-nine per cent of all fish species that were recorded were found in the 14 MPAs sampled. Redundancy in the MPA network was low, with fish species most commonly being represented in only one MPA or absent. There was greater redundancy in the 33 EPAs, with 40% of species being found in two or more EPAs, but many of these estuaries were adjacent to each other and embedded in large MPAs. Deep water fish communities (>80 m deep) and communities located on the west and south-east coasts of South Africa were most poorly represented by MPAs. Routine fishery surveys provide a robust and repeatable opportunity to assess species representativeness in MPAs, and the method used could form the basis of an operational definition of 'representative'. In contrast to an assessment based on presence-absence data, this analysis of quantitative data presents a more pessimistic assessment of protection. © Copyright Foundation for Environmental Conservation 2012.",,259-270,,3,39,,Environ.

Starting from monitoring the sea level and meteorological parameters in harbours, it can help port communities decide, e.g., when a ship with a certain draft can enter or leave the port, or which the best route to follow is (port safety). The second system, instead, deals with the monitoring of the Earth’s magnetic field in port areas for harbour protection purposes, in particular to detect the possible presence of underwater intruders, e.g. divers swimming in restricted areas (port security).

One of these factors is the climate, which determines the characteristics of the vegetation and, on a larger scale, of the communities. The aim of this paper is to analyze the climate-vegetation relationship by studying adaptations of the jarillal community regarding the semiarid climate in the Lihué Calel National Park, Argentina. Therefore, this contribution is concerned with the knowledge of the characteristics of the environment in order to understand how vegetation responds to certain phenomena, so management of protected areas will be more suitable. Lihué Calel National Park is a national protected area located in the south-center of La Pampa province, Argentina. According to Cabrera (1976) the area belongs to the floristic province of ""monte"" and the climate is warm and dry. In the interest to achieve the goals of this paper, Thornthwaite and Mather's water balance was done. The data was collected from a weather station that belongs to the national park, for the period 1995-2010. Emberger's pluviothermic coefficient, Lang's rainfall index, De Martonne's aridity index and Currey's continentality index were analyzed. In addition, ten stands or plots of vegetation were placed to determine the floristic composition and the vegetation physiognomy. Then, plants species were identified as individuals and their adaptive responses were also analyzed. In conclusion, the survey verified that semi-arid climate conditions determine the morphology and the appearance of jarillal. Climate analysis shows that for the period 1995-2010 the average annual temperature is 16.2° C and reveals that thermal summers and winters are well differentiated. Large water deficit is defined, because water balance indicates that the evapotranspiration exceeds precipitation during every month of the year. According to Thornthwaite's criteria, the area is a semiarid climate type. With the analysis of other bioclimatic indices, more information is obtained: Lang's index value is 25.7 (arid), Emberger's index is 41.8 (semiarid), De Martonne's index is 15.9 (that refers to a semi-arid climate) and, at last, Currey's index certified the existence of a continental climate because the result was 1.16. Vegetation was surveyed and the result was quite interesting: 1 508 individuals that belong to 33 species. The percentage is: shrubs 57.6%, grasses 36.4% and Trees 6.1%. Most of them were evergreen and only some deciduous. The distribution of vegetation in Lihué Calel responds to the semi-arid conditions. Some adaptations were observed like the development of the deep root system with an horizontal pattern in order to absorb the water from the soil, the loss of leafs in the unfavorable season, the replacement of leaves by thorns, small resinous leaves, leaf tilting and extensive roots, among others. The dominant plant of the jarillal is Larrea divaricata and it is considered as a xerofite plant. The process indicates that when stomata are open, transpiration rates increase; when they are closed, transpiration rates decrease. The Cactaceae family is represented by two species: Opuntia puelchana and Cereus aethiop. They are considered succulent plants that keep humidity inside. During rainy periods they absorb large amounts of water that they then use during the dry periods. These types of studies are relevant to understand how plants adapt to different environmental events, whether they are natural and/or anthropogenic. As a reference, in 2003, major fires occurred inside the National Park and they affected 7 000 hectares. The resinous leaves of the jarilla helped to propagate the fire all around the place. The next phase of the investigation process will be related to the physiological and morphological properties, through chemical analysis, so the adaptation of vegetation can be tested. With these new studies, the final purpose will be reached: good practice for plant conservation. © 2015 Universidad Nacional Autonóma de México.",,33-44,,88,2015,,Invest.

However, the goals of the local MPA in Indonesia is faced with the legal problems due to the enactment of Law No. 23/2014 on Local Government, regulate that the district or municipality government is no longer has authority to manage shoreline area within four miles as well as local MPA. The new law implies mismanagement of the MPA due to lack of capacity provincial government to manage the additional area of authority. There is no responsible institution focus to manage the MPA yet. This study aims to analyze the deregulation of Bontang City authority to manage the MPA. This research was conducted from January to April 2019 using normative juridical methods on the legal basis of MPA management. The results of this study suggested that based on Law No. 23/2014, actually the Bontang City Government still has opportunity to manage the MPA even though this area within the authority of Provincial Government. The authority of the Bontang City is still imbedded in several local government agencies, such as the Environment Agency, Community and Village Empowerment Service, and Fisheries Service. The institutional strengthening of the local MPA Bontang is proposed in two stages, in the short term through establishment of a Working Group involving the government of East Kalimantan Provinces and the City of Bontang, while in the long term to establish a new institution of the Technical Implementation Unit is under the Provincial Marine and Fisheries Agency. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,414,,,,,,,,Institute of Physics Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

In forested wetlands, hydrological regimes have been identified as crucial factors that shape the community's attributes and composition patterns. Therefore, the objective of this study was to analyze the response of a tropical forested wetland diversity and structural attributes, as well as its species composition to two types of environmental proxies related to flooding and salinity regimes: microtopography and distance to water bodies. The forest was characterized by sampling all the individuals with DBH ? 10 cm found inside twenty-five 25 × 50 m plots. Each plot's microtopographic variables and distance to water bodies were extracted using a LiDAR point cloud. The response of the community's attributes to the quantified environmental proxies was analyzed using an RDA ordination. Community composition was the only attribute where the ordination was significant, particularly only its first axis. Additional analysis showed that Rhizophora mangle was gradually substituted by Terminalia buceras as the most abundant species along the RDA first axis. This first axis was significantly correlated with two environmental proxies: distance to the lagoon's edge and standard deviation of ground surface elevation. Moreover, linear regression analysis revealed that the abundance of three species was explained by these environmental proxies. R. mangle abundance showed a negative response to standard deviation of ground surface elevation, while T. buceras and Chrysobalanus icaco showed a positive response to distance to the lagoon's edge. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,167,,Aquatic Bot.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Elsevier B.V.,,,,ABOVEGROUND BIOMASS; BAY; Chrysobalanus icaco; CLIMATE-CHANGE; community composition; conservation planning; DIVERSITY; Environmental proxies; ESTABLISHMENT; Gradients; LEVEL; lidar; LiDAR; MANGROVE FORESTS; microtopography; NEOTROPICAL SWAMP FOREST; ordination; Pantanos de centla biosphere reserve; plant community; regression analysis; Rhizophora mangle; salinity; spatial variation; SPECIES COMPOSITION; Terminalia; tropical forest; VEGETATION PATTERNS; wetland management,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Aims: To identify management units (MUs) based on genetic variability and demographic structure in order to propose assertive conservation actions for Mammillaria crucigera and to provide a model case study for other species that are under similar threats. Methods: We genotyped through eight microsatellite loci in 171 individuals and described demographic structures in six populations of this cactus based on plots of 1 m2. Results: Across populations with a mean density of 2.6 m?2 and a total of ~500 individuals counted, 30% of the individuals were reproductive (diameter >2 cm). The total heterozygosity was low (HO = 0.54), but the inbreeding coefficient (FIS = 0.29) and the allele diversity (NA = 20) were high. Four genetic groups were distinguished, although considering the demographic structure, we propose three MUs. Conclusions: It is critical to maintain the genetic connectivity within and among MUs, which can only be achieved through cooperation between government authorities and local habitants to halt the degradation and further destruction of the remnant populations. Searching MUs allows the identification of critical areas for conservation issues for all species whose extant populations are in a fragmented landscape. © 2015 Botanical Society of Scotland and Taylor & Francis.",,559-569,,4,8,,Plant Ecol.

At the same time in many countries including Russia the region is attracting growing attention of decision-makers and business communities. In light of the above it is necessary to protect the biodiversity of the regional marine ecosystems in the most effective way possible, namely by establishing a network of marine protected areas. Identifying conservation priority areas is a key step towards this goal. To achieve it, a study based on a systematic conservation planning approach was conducted. An expanded group of experts used the MARXAN algorithm to produce initial results, then discussed and refined them to select 47 conservation priority areas in the Russian Arctic seas. The resulting network covers nearly 25% of the Russian Arctic seas, which guarantees proportional representation of their biodiversity as well as achieving connectivity, sustainability and naturalness. This was largely made possible by the selected methodology, based on the MARXAN decision support tool supplemented by extensive post-analysis that helped fill any gaps inevitable in the formal approach. Although available data were sparse, and of varying quality and a single regionalization scheme could not be used (as is often the case for such areas), the selected approach has proven successful for such a large area that covers both the coastal zone and parts of the High Seas. Such an approach could be used further to identify marine protected areas throughout the Arctic Ocean. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,30-51,,,27,,Aquatic Conserv. Mar. Freshw.

Due to their wide distribution and mobility, cetaceans are exposed to numerous threats. Well-managed MPAs are one of the most effective tools in managing these threats to conserve cetaceans. This study aimed to analyze and compare the existing management approaches toward cetaceans from selected MPAs in the American continent. The purpose was to assess their primary failures and advances. To achieve this, ten MPAs that include at least one cetacean species as a focal conservation target were selected from 10 different countries: five in the Atlantic Ocean and five in the Pacific Ocean. The Marine Mammals Management Self-Assessment Toolkit was used to evaluate the integration of cetaceans in MPA management plans. This toolkit assigns scores to several subjects that are categorized into four themes: 1) Management Frameworks, 2) Addressing Activities and Threats, 3) Research and Monitoring, 4) Outreach and Engagement. Thereafter, a final percentage was obtained for each MPA. The Marine Mammal Sanctuary Bancos de la Plata y la Navidad in the Dominican Republic achieved the highest score. This MPA presented a specific plan to conserve marine mammals that includes zoning of environmentally sensitive areas and considers the threats and activities affecting marine mammals. The five MPAs with the lowest scores were from South America, with Cabo Polonio National Park (Uruguay) being the lowest, as its management plan does not include measures focused on cetaceans. In addition, a lack of monitoring in MPAs results in an absence of information on their impact on marine mammals. Addressing this shortcoming is of utmost importance for informing future MPA planning strategies. To conclude, this study highlights the importance of incorporating mitigation measures targeting priority species and underscores governance structures to regulate anthropogenic threats through robust legal frameworks and enforcement mechanisms. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,252,,Ocean Coast.

When the pulp is exposed due to cariogenic or iatrogenic injuries, it is often capped with biocompatible materials in order to expedite pulpal wound healing. The ultimate goal is to regenerate reparative dentin, a physical barrier that functions as a ""biological seal"" and protects the underlying pulp tissue. Although this direct pulp-capping procedure has long been used in dentistry, the underlying molecular mechanism of pulpal wound healing and reparative dentin formation is still poorly understood. To induce reparative dentin, pulp capping has been performed experimentally in large animals, but less so in mice, presumably due to their small sizes and the ensuing technical difficulties. Here, we present a detailed, step-by-step method of performing a pulp-capping procedure in mice, including the preparation of a Class-I-like cavity, the placement of pulp-capping materials, and the restoration procedure using dental composite. Our pulp-capping mouse model will be instrumental in investigating the fundamental molecular mechanisms of pulpal wound healing in the context of reparative dentin in vivo by enabling the use of transgenic or knockout mice that are widely available in the research community. © 2017 Journal of Visualized Experiments.",,,,119,2017,,J.

The frequency of the nesting activity may fluctuate dramatically over time, depending on the environmental conditions. This study aimed to examine the nest count, female abundance, and reproductive output of green turtles on Yeniyurt Beach in the eastern Mediterranean between 2017 and 2022. The beach was surveyed via annual monitoring at consistent intervals. Temporal variations in the nest count and abundance of females were analyzed using the Mann– Kendall and Sen’s Slope tests. A total of 803 nests were recorded, with an average of 133 nests per nesting season and an average nest density of 33.5 km–1. A total of 326 nests were excavated, with 28,546 of the 36,394 eggs successfully hatched (78% hatching success). The nest count and female abundance exhibited an insignificant, monotonic upward trend. The average nesting female count per nesting season was estimated to be 138.5 based on the observed clutch frequency (CF) and 67 based on the estimated CF. Yeniyurt Beach has a high nesting activity rate, representing 6% of the Mediterranean in terms of the nest count and 5% in terms of female abundance. Approximately 12% of nests did not produce hatchlings due to flooding and predation. Yeniyurt Beach lacks a conservation status, making it vulnerable to future threats like industrialization. In addition to the designation of the area as a protected site, the rehabilitation of the backshore habitat is of significant importance. © TÜB?TAK.",,318-326,,5,48,,Turk. J.

This study aims to describe the ecological dynamics of the Canadian Beaufort Sea Shelf (BSS) ecosystem and the Tarium Niryutait Marine Protected Area (TNMPA) under historical changes in sea surface temperature and sea ice extent. Using Ecopath with Ecosim, we compared the status of the BSS between two time periods, 1970–1974 and 2008–2012, and against four ecosystem models (Eastern Chukchi Sea, Barents Sea, Eastern Bering Sea, Gulf of Alaska) to inform the relative long-term health and status of Arctic marine ecosystems. We find that relative to the comparable ecosystems, the BSS had a greater proportion of biomass from pelagic primary and secondary producers, and limited production from higher trophic levels. Estimates of trophic structure indices for the BSS indicate temporal ecosystem stability, and no loss in diversity. While beluga whales are a focus of the TNMPA management plan, they are not considered a key component of the modeled food web. Rather, Arctic and polar cods (main beluga prey group), arthropods, large copepods, micro-zooplankton, and herring and smelt, were identified as keystone species and warrant attention as proxies for both beluga whales and ecosystem health. © Canadian Science Publishing.",,1252-1275,,4,8,,Arctic Sci.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Canadian Science Publishing,,,,Arctic; ARCTIC-OCEAN; CAPELIN MALLOTUS-VILLOSUS; climate change; COD BOREOGADUS-SAIDA; ecosystem modelling; ecosystem-based management; EXPLOITED ECOSYSTEMS; FOOD WEBS; ICE; keystone species; MACKENZIE RIVER; NETWORK ANALYSIS; POLAR COD; SPECIES-DIVERSITY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This paper describes the governance process and analyses the governance mechanisms and conflicts surrounding ongoing fisheries management planning with a focus on two Natura 2000 sites in the Danish part of the Skagerrak Sea designated to protect harbour porpoises. Responsibility for developing fisheries management for Natura 2000 sites is solely the remit of the fisheries agency, including mechanisms related to stakeholder involvement. This approach fuels the efficiency of the decision making process, while full transparency and/or co-decision becomes less of a given within a ministry for an economic sector compared with the environment ministry. In relation to porpoises, conflicts are driven mainly by the economy and the varying perceptions of the bycatch issue, with great differences between government, NGO's and fishers. Interviews with fishers and fishing effort data reveal intra-sectoral conflicts pertaining to the incompatibility of active trawling and passive gillnetting in the areas.

While marine protected areas in Europe on a wider scale have generally been considered a tool for either nature conservation or a technical measure in management of fisheries, overall management objectives of marine protected areas in Southeast Asian countries have varied more significantly between countries and sites due to differences in societal needs and opportunities, spatial scales, environmental conditions and varying threats. These differences have resulted in different approaches to marine protected area development and management. Management of the Northern European marine environment and its living resources is highly sectoral and largely determined by central directives and policies stemming from the European Union, such as the Habitats Directive and the Common Fisheries Policy. This paper however, will touch upon an ongoing evolution within the European Union from a strictly sectoral approach to marine protected areas and marine management, towards a more integrated, ecosystem approach to management of fisheries and the marine environment. In Southeast Asia, marine protected area development is usually determined by individual governments, municipalities and coastal communities, based upon specific needs and settings. Examples of such marine protected areas in Vietnam and the Philippines will be described, including their underlying institutional frameworks and objectives such as tourism, management of artisanal fisheries, etc. Examples of differences and similarities between Northern European and Southeast Asian marine protected areas will be presented and areas in which regions might learn from one another identified. For instance, where Southeast Asian protected areas have addressed the inevitable interdependency between healthy ecosystems and sustainable coastal fisheries for decades, marine protected areas in Northern Europe usually address either large scale management of stocks of individual fish species or nature conservation. Tourism has long been an overarching driving force in marine protected area implementation in SE Asia, while in Northern Europe especially this has only had little influence on overall objectives pertaining to the marine environment.

We used a particle-tracking scheme based on the outputs of a three-dimensional numerical hydrodynamic model to assess the spatial domain to which the island exports larvae as well as larvae retention. We modeled the release of passive particles from locations around the island during the four release dates (May 15 and 31, and June 14 and 30), matching the lunar phases and the peak of the reproductive season for several commercial invertebrates and fish, at the time when currents in the Gulf typically reverse. For each simulation we analyzed the data at 15, 20 and 30. days after the release to represent different planktonic propagule durations. Particle dispersion was highly dynamic and spread over ~. 600. km along the coast over the study period. Overall, we observed potential ecological connectivity with a few key distant fishing sites that changed trough time, and potential genetic connectivity towards many near and distant sites, including all neighboring Marine Protected Areas, although not simultaneously. The percentages of particles remaining within the boundaries of the island tended to decline from May to June, and decreased with delayed planktonic propagule duration. The design of effective Marine Protected Areas should acknowledge the dynamic nature of connectivity patterns, for instance, by establishing adaptive network reserves to respond to changing ocean features that match reproductive patterns of target species and fisheries behavior. © 2013 The Authors.",,248-258,,,129,,J.

Although carrying capacity strategies can be used to cope with use-related impacts, there is little understanding of divers themselves, their management preferences, and how preferences relate to conservation goals. By using a stated preference choice modeling approach, we investigated the choices divers make in selecting diving trips to marine protected areas as defined by use level, access, level of supervision, fees, conservation education, and diving expectations. Logit models showed that divers preferred a more restrictive management scenario over the status quo. Divers favored reductions in the level of site use and increased levels of conservation education. Divers did not favor fees to access protected areas, having less access to the resource, or extensive supervision. Finally, divers were much more willing to accept increasingly restrictive management scenarios when they could expect to see increased marine life. © Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences 2007.",,316-322,,4,36,,Ambio,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"animal; Animals; Anthozoa; article; carrying capacity; Conservation of Natural Resources; conservation planning; coral reef; diving; Diving; ecological impact; ecosystem; Ecosystem; education; environmental protection; growth, development and aging; human; Humans; legal aspect; marine ecosystem; methodology; Models, Theoretical; numerical model; physiology; preference behavior; protected area; resource management; scuba diving; species conservation; theoretical model",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Method: A randomized double?blind comparative placebo?controlled study was undertaken in the village of Biasso, 60 km from Abidjan in the southern part of the Ivory Coast, a region where P. falciparum malaria is endemic. Four hundred and ninety nine male volunteers (five parallel groups), who were inhabitants of Biasso, were involved. The main outcome measures concerned the incidence of malaria breakthroughs (acute malaria attacks) and the incidence of parasitemia.  Results: Within this strictly defined epidemiologic context, prophylaxis, taken once weekly, proved to be fully protective (parasitic index: 0) in the Lariam, Fansidar, and Fansimef groups throughout the whole study period. Prophylaxis with chloroquine proved incompletely protective (parasitic index: 2.5) The most frequent side effects were pruritus (5.6%), diarrhea (1.2%) and headache (0.06%). No significant differences in the incidence of side effects in each group (chi?square test) was observed. All side effects were transient and judged to be mild by the investigators.  Conclusions: Excellent efficacy was observed in the prophylaxis of P. falciparum malaria with Lariam, Fansidar, and Fansimef as compared to the partial protection provided by chloroquine. Safety and tolerance were comparable in all groups during the whole period of observation (5 months). Copyright © 1995, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved",,221-224,,4,2,,J.

The Afro-Arabian region comprises one of the most important biogeographic areas connecting continents. Yet, little emphasis has been put on understanding its endemic fauna in relation to its biogeographic realms. Our objective is to fill the gaps in knowledge on diversity patterns and biogeography that are essential for prioritizing the overdue conservation efforts. Location: The study area covers mostly the hot desert climate region in North Africa and Arabia, and includes the Mediterranean, Sahel, and Ethiopian highlands (hereafter “Afro-Arabian region”). Methods: We used distribution maps developed by IUCN and BirdLife for species endemic to the Afro-Arabian region belonging to the four tetrapod classes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, to identify the endemic richness hotspots. We then used multivariate analyses to delineate biogeographic regions and evaluate their relationship with the environmental factors. Results: Our study reveals a complex map of the richness hotspots for the endemic tetrapod classes. The main hotspots of endemism were concentrated at the margins of the study area, along the Mediterranean coast, Ethiopian highlands, and along the Red Sea Mountains. We propose classifying the Afro-Arabian region into three discrete biogeographic realms for endemic amphibians, four for reptiles and birds, and five discrete biogeographic realms for endemic mammals. The identified realms are defined by their environmental conditions and the historical geological processes. Main conclusions: Richness hotspots of endemic tetrapod classes were heterogeneously distributed in the Afro-Arabian region. Our results support the hypothesis that species diversity patterns and endemism have been shaped by the environmental conditions and the paleogeographic processes. Each of the identified bioregions is associated with a characteristic set of tetrapod species. Our results are a benchmark for assessing the effectiveness of the protected areas and for implementing conservation plans for biodiversity. © 2020 The Authors.

WLRs provide information about growth, wellbeing and fitness of a population in a marine environment. WLRs for four topshells (Phorcus atratus, Phorcus lineatus, Phorcus mariae, Phorcus sauciatus) caught in North-eastern Atlantic Ocean (Azores, Canaries, Cape Verde, Madeira and Mainland Portugal) were established and their relative growth was assessed. The results showed that almost all species exhibited a positive allometric growth. A comparative study on the effect of harvest in the relative growth of P. sauciatus in the archipelago of Madeira showed that all the populations from exploited areas exhibited a negative allometric growth in contrast to the populations from the Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) which were predominantly isometric. The present results indicate that the conservation measures established in the protected areas promoted a positive effect in the protected populations and are valuable for establishing a set of monitoring and management measures aiming at the sustainable exploitation and conservation of these species. These results are important to demonstrate the role of MPAs in the conservation of these keystone species in the north eastern Atlantic Ocean rocky shore ecosystems. © 2020 The Malacological Society of Australasia and the Society for the Study of Molluscan Diversity.",,363-368,,4,40,,Molluscan Res.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Taylor and Francis Ltd.,,,,MPAs; north-eastern Atlantic Ocean; Relative growth; topshells,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The Abrolhos Marine National Park is the seasonal habitat for the breeding population of humpback whales in the Western South Atlantic. We acoustically monitored 7% of the park area during 26 days using marine autonomous recording units and evaluated the responses of whales to boat traffic by measuring changes in male singing activity. The recorded humpback whale songs were analyzed to locate and count individual singers. We modeled the fluctuation in the number of singers over time in response to: number of acoustic boat events, tide height, lunar phase, hour of the day, the quadratic function of hour of day, day of the season, and presence of light. Generalized linear models were used to fit the singer count data into a Poisson distribution and log link. We found an important negative effect of boat traffic on singing activity. There is evidence that the interaction between phases of the moon and the quadratic function of hour of day also affect singing behavior. Adaptive management should aim at reducing the number of noise events per boat, which can improve the whale watching experience and reduce the impact on male singing behavior.",,174-181,,1,36,,Can Acoust,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Aquaculture; Boats; Computer networks; Environmental protection; Fisheries; Marine parks; Mathematical models; National parks; Parks; Poisson distribution; Quadratic functions; Quadratic programming; Societies and institutions,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, they have suffered anthropic actions, due to real estate speculation, greater ease of occupation and lower capacity and speed of regeneration when compared to forest formations. In this sense, the objective was to map the scientific articles on Restinga and Ethnobotany in Brazil. The descriptors “Restinga”, “Restinga AND Ethnobotany”, “Restinga AND Ethnobotany AND Brazil” were used in the Portal Periódicos Capes, Web of Science and Scopus databases. Thirteen publications were registered, distributed over the years 2004 to 2023. The articles mainly address the economic, ecological and environmental uses of plant species, as well as local knowledge about medicinal plants, and emphasize the importance of strategies for the creation of protected areas for sustainable use as a way of guaranteeing the maintenance of traditional knowledge and associated local knowledge. It is concluded that studies on ethnobotany in the sandbank environment are scarce and that future research could take into account the cultural, social and economic aspects experienced by coastal communities, with greater subsidies for actions that contribute to the conservation of plant species and traditional knowledge in sandbank areas. © 2024, Universidade Federal de Pernambuco.

Based on extensive research in two coastal fishing communities, the paper highlights impacts and conflicts arising from this conventional approach to MPA identification, planning and management. It argues that failure to understand the particular fishery system in all its complexity, in particular the human dimensions, and involve resource users in planning and decision-making processes, undermines efforts to achieve conservation and fisheries management objectives. The customary rights of local resource users, and their food and livelihood needs in relation to marine resources, need to be acknowledged, prioritized and integrated into planning and decision-making processes. Convincing ecologists, fisheries scientists and managers, that MPA success depends on addressing the root causes of resource decline and incorporating social factors into MPA identification, planning and management, remains a huge challenge in South Africa. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,573-583,,4,47,,Environ.

Efforts to expand the network of MPAs are contested largely due to historical injustices associated with MPA establishment and the ongoing social impacts linked with their current management and governance. This paper presents findings of recent research on the social dimensions of MPAs in five MPAs in South Africa. Drawing on information gathered from 70 oral histories, over 250 key informant interviews and 28 focus groups, the paper examines key social impacts respondents attribute to MPAs and their establishment and ongoing management. Significant negative impacts reported include the weakening of local governance rights and processes, in particular the lack of effective mechanisms for local community participation in decision-making. The loss of tenure rights and access to resources amongst already marginalised communities has contributed to food insecurity, less exchange of food and less household income. The MPAs investigated have impacted on culture, way of life and sense of place. Yet, despite government commitments to several international policy instruments relevant to MPAs and national laws legislating redress, social issues associated with MPAs have been largely overlooked. Findings from this research demonstrate that the failure to address historical impacts, as well as social hardships and inequities still being experienced, undermine the legitimacy of MPAs and frustrate the achievement of objectives and plans to increase the marine space under protection. Ways of working towards more effective, legitimate and sustainable MPAs in South Africa are suggested. © 2018",,168-179,,,157,,Ocean Coast.

Measuring MPA efficacy can be challenging, however, particularly when considering responses at the community level. We gathered 36 abundance and 14 biomass data sets on fish assemblages and used meta-analysis to evaluate the ability of 22 distinct community diversity metrics to detect differences in community structure between MPAs and nearby control sites. We also considered the effects of 6 covariates-MPA size and age, MPA size and age interaction, latitude, total species richness, and level of protection-on each metric. Some common metrics, such as species richness and Shannon diversity, did not differ consistently between MPA and control sites, whereas other metrics, such as total abundance and biomass, were consistently different across studies. Metric responses derived from the biomass data sets were more consistent than those based on the abundance data sets, suggesting that community-level biomass differs more predictably than abundance between MPA and control sites. Covariate analyses indicated that level of protection, latitude, MPA size, and the interaction between MPA size and age affect metric performance. These results highlight a handful of metrics, several of which are little known, that could be used to meet the increasing demand for community-level indicators of MPA effectiveness. © 2015 Society for Conservation Biology.",,775-783,,3,29,,Conserv.

Protected-area design should be based on detailed movements of target animals; however, such data are lacking for most species. To address this, 25 sharks from three species were tagged with acoustic transmitters and monitored with a network of 103 receivers to determine the use of a protected area at Mangrove Bay, Western Australia. Movements of a subset of 12 individuals (Carcharhinus melanopterus [n=7]), C. amblyrhynchos [n=2], and Negaprion acutidens [n=3]) were analysed over two years. Residency for all species ranged between 12 and 96%. Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos had <1% of position estimates within the MPA, compared to C. melanopterus adults that ranged between 0 and 99%. Juvenile sharks had high percentages of position estimates in the MPA (84-99%). Kernel density activity centres for C. melanopterus and C. amblyrhynchos were largely outside the MPA and mean activity space estimates for adults were 12.8 km2 (±3.12 SE) and 19.6 km2 (±2.26), respectively. Juveniles had smaller activity spaces: C. melanopterus, 7.2 ±1.33 km2; N. acutidens, 0.6 km2 (±0.04). Both C. melanopterus and C. amblyrhynchos had peaks in detections during daylight hours (1200 and 0900 h, respectively), whereas N. acutidens had a peak in detections at 0200 h. Long-distance movements were observed for adult C. melanopterus and C. amblyrhynchos, the longest being approximately 275 km. These migrations of C. melanopterus might be related to reproductive behaviours, because they were all observed in adult females during the summer months and provide links between known in-shore aggregation and possible nursery areas. The MPA at Mangrove Bay provided some protection for juvenile and adult reef sharks, although protection is likely greater for juveniles due to their more restricted movements. © 2015 Published by Elsevier B.V.

In particular, studies evaluating the counterfactual influence of protection status on community metrics derived from field-collected data are still scarce. In this paper, using data from a resurveying study, we assessed the contribution of the European Natura 2000 network to maintaining and/or improving through time habitat quality and functional integrity in Mediterranean coastal dune habitats, which appear among the most threatened ecosystems worldwide. Using multiple regression techniques, we tested the influence of protection status on habitat loss and on 10–15 years changes in the richness and cover of two highly informative plant groups: focal and alien species. Next to a substantial habitat loss, we observed an overall decrease in focal species richness and cover, whereas alien species were stable or slightly increasing, depending on the habitat. Surprisingly, changes in the analyzed metrics did not differ between protected and non-protected sites, thus providing no substantial evidence of the effectiveness of Natura 2000 in conserving and/or improving dune habitats. Taken together, such results suggest negative implications for the whole ecosystem structure and functionality, to be expected regardless of the protection status. This led us to reflect about the general inadequacy in the implementation of actual conservation measures in coastal habitats, discuss potential causes (lack of ad-hoc management plans and targeted conservation measures, scarcity of dedicated funding, bureaucratization), and stress the value of monitoring activities for evaluating conservation outcomes and reformulating current strategies. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,248,,Biol.

The entire lake area, which is impacted by strong tourist pressure, is part of the “Monte Vulture” Special Area of Conservation (SAC IT9210210). The aim of this paper is to review the literature studies on these lakes, in order to identify the more suitable limnological parameters to infer the history of the trophic status of the two lakes. For this reason, we assess the current ecological status of the two lakes on the basis of physical, chemical and biological analyses deriving from two recent surveys carried out in 2005-2007 and in 2015, and compare these data with sparse, but relevant, historical records, in order to assess how human impacts affected both these lakes and to understand the differences in their present trophic status. Because of its peculiar water chemistry, Lago Piccolo is resulted in good and stable ecological conditions. On the contrary, water transparency of Lago Grande came out very low in summer, while total phosphorus and nitrogen concentration are proved high, leading to the persistence of critical environmental conditions in this lake, with high algal biomass and durable algal blooms in late summer, dominated by cyanobacteria. Finally, in absence of standard protocols and seasonal samplings, the macrophyte maximum growing depth should be considered the more reliable indicator of trophic status among those available for these specific lakes, being relatively independent from sampling methods and seasonal pattern. © the Author(s), 2019.",,44-56,,1,10,,Adv.

We overlapped the ranges of 2290 threatened terrestrial and freshwater resident species and 127,046 terrestrial protected areas (28,130 Natura2000 sites and 98,916 nationally designated protected areas) in the EU and we found that species' EU ranges are covered on average 46.6 % by protected areas (41.5 % by Natura2000 and 34.0 % by nationally designated protected areas). We found 71 Gap0.1 species (<0.1 % coverage), most of which are invertebrates and endemic to southern EU islands. The southern EU countries have the highest number of threatened endemic species, they offer among the highest coverage to threatened species ranges and they have almost reached the 30 % land coverage by protected areas and. Therefore, the expansion of the protected area network, should not be guided solely by percentage of area targets, but instead by biodiversity needs.

The current study aimed to evaluate the spatial distribution of the abundance, biomass, community structure, and functional diversity of the mesozooplankton from the NMPA/BB during spring 2014. We also assessed the potential of zooplankton as prey for upper trophic levels, in particular the larvae of the Fuegian sprat (Sprattus fuegensis), a key species in the food web of the NMPA/BB. A total of 26 zooplankton taxa were identified. Nauplii and copepods evidenced the highest abundances, with the latter representing the dominant group in terms of biomass. Copepods showed a strong eastward gradient in their abundance, biomass, and diversity. This spatial structure in the community composition seems to be modulated by a west-to-east decreasing trend in the size of available preys, with nano- and picoplankton playing a major role in the eastern part of the NMPA/BB. Such pattern would be, in turn, a consequence of productivity gradients along hydrographic features. The high abundance of nauplii and copepods suggests that spring is an appropriate time for their reproduction and, given their size structure, they represent an adequate food source for Fuegian sprat larvae. This would be enhanced by anticyclonic cells present in the NMPA/BB, which can gather and retain sprat larvae along with their zooplanktonic preys. The results of our study, which is the first comprehensive approach addressing the zooplanktonic indicators of the NMPA/BB, serve as a baseline for future ecosystem-based policies aiming to manage and protect the natural marine resources sheltered here. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,210,,J.

The oceanographical features included in the analysis were obtained from the literature or inferred from schemes of climatic oceanography. The most frequent oceanographic feature associated with a particular CPA is constant advection of a particular water mass, followed by local water mass transformation, seasonal ice zones, flaw polynyas, and external sources of nutrients. Particularly important are major frontal zones, and coastal phenomena such as coastal/offshore waters transition zones, massifs of fast ice and specific regimes of semi-isolated fjords and bays. Each Arctic sea in the study area or its large part (in the Barents Sea) is characterized by a distinct combination of oceanographical features associated with the respective CPAs. Although most oceanographical features were not involved in the process of developing the CPA network directly, the resulting CPAs are shown to have a solid oceanographical background. While this oceanographical background needs further understanding, it provides the possibility to refine the MPA boundaries and plan future studies. Furthermore it allows evaluation of potential resistance and resilience of CPAs to climate change by focusing on relevant oceanographical processes and the adaptive potential of biota on an area by area basis.

Exmouth Gulf is adjacent to the Ningaloo Marine Park, a UNESCO-listed area in Western Australia. The gulf remains largely unprotected, and is under increasing anthropogenic pressure from proposed industrial activities that pose threats to marine megafauna inhabiting the gulf. Threatened and near threatened species, such as the Australian humpback dolphin (Sousa sahulensis) and Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops aduncus), reside in the gulf; however, detailed information on their ecology and behaviour is lacking. Aims. The aim was to (1) provide baseline data on the distribution, encounter rate, group size and behaviour of coastal dolphins over an area where current industrial developments are proposed, and (2) report on the occurrence of other marine megafauna within this area. Methods. Boat-based photo-identification surveys were conducted on the western coastline of Exmouth Gulf along predetermined line transects (150 km2) over austral autumn/winter 2021. Key results. Across 809.35 km of surveyed waters (181 h), a total of 93 bottlenose dolphin, 15 humpback dolphin, and six interspecific dolphin groups were sighted. Bottlenose dolphin groups were encountered at a rate of 0.077/km, humpback dolphin groups at 0.015/km and interspecific dolphin groups at 0.005/km. Dolphins were predominantly recorded in shallow (mean 10 m) and warm (mean 21°C) waters, and were commonly travelling and foraging. In total, 199 individual bottlenose dolphins and 48 humpback dolphins were photo-identified (excluding calves). There were 30 bottlenose dolphin calves (including three newborns) and four humpback dolphin calves (including two newborns) identified. Other marine megafauna group sightings included humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae; n = 32), southern right whales (Eubalaena australis, n = 1), dugongs (Dugong dugon, n = 25), turtles (n = 54), sea snakes (n = 27), manta rays (Mobula alfredi, n = 13) and sharks (n = 2). Conclusions. The presence of threatened marine species feeding, socialising, and resting highlights the importance of these waters for the identified species. Implications. The information provided is applicable for the spatial management and conservation efforts of these species, and aids in informing environmental impact assessments of individual and cumulative pressures. © 2023 The Author(s) (or their employer(s)).

A newly proposed law aims to create a Service of Biodiversity and Protected Areas that would unify the terrestrial and marine systems. The proposed law would allow the inclusion of private protected areas.Aims: We evaluate the current status of the conservation areas and propose an eco-regional plan that would allow reaching the overall target to bring 10% of all natural ecosystems under protection.Methods: A GAP analysis for all Chilean terrestrial and marine environments considered two protection scenarios: (1) public protected areas only, and (2) a combination of public and private protected areas. Afterwards, a multi-scale MARXAN assessment including 1367 conservation objects was carried out to identify suitable protected areas.Results: Chile does not meet its conservation target in four out of its 11 terrestrial eco-regions and in none of its eight marine eco-regions. To achieve the target of having 10% of all natural ecosystems (and conservation objects identified within them) under protection, an expansion of terrestrial public and private protected areas that currently cover 21.4% of Chile is required to reach 37.5%; marine protected areas need to cover 11.8% of Chile's exclusive economic zone.Conclusions: The under-represented conservation objects in protected areas in the highly biodiverse Mediterranean region require a proactive strategy towards establishing private protected areas.

Fish assemblages in a large freshwater swamp (Beung Borapet) in Thailand were sampled with fish traps to test the hypothesis that the FPA would enhance fisheries production and biodiversity. Total densities and biomass of fish did not differ or were inconsistent between FPA and the fished area, and these patterns were inconsistent among several dominant species. Only one dominant species had higher densities and biomass in the FPA, which also did not appear to result in an increase in the size of fish. The benefits of the FPA for fisheries enhancement and conservation of biodiversity are inconsistent and appear to be compromised by a combination of non-selective fishing methods, illegal fishing activities and point-source impacts from other human disturbances.

These targets have contributed to a considerable volume of research in MPA governance, and in the ecological effectiveness of MPAs. However, examining the literature demonstrates there is very little joined up research to show that any particular governance approach results in improved ecological indices of fish stocks or biodiversity. Indeed, some of the well-cited examples of participatory governance implying improved ecological metrics are either incorrect (as data do not relate to MPAs under participatory governance systems), or do not provide any ecological data other than opinions of fishers to back up the claims. Evidence suggests that participatory governance approaches with equitable sharing of benefits can help the establishment and management of MPAs, and as such, there should be urgent further work assessing the ecological benefits that arise as a result of the establishment of MPAs with participatory and equitable governance approaches. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,57-61,,,152,,Ocean Coast.

The rate of epidermal cell proliferation is indicative of the skin's repair rate and can be monitored noninvasively in vivo using skin intrinsic fluorescence markers. Objectives: The goal of the present study was to assess the effects of ageing, geographical region, ethnic origin and season on the ability of facial skin to repair itself in the presence of chronic environmental insults using in vivo fluorescence spectroscopy. Methods: Skin fluorescence emission was measured on the cheeks of 522 individuals in winter and repeated in summer in five different geographical locations in the Asia-Pacific region. Fluorescence emission was also measured from 80 caucasians of fair complexion in the United States (New Jersey area) on the face and on a relatively protected area (upper inner arm). The age range of the participants was 14-75 years. Results: We found that epidermal proliferation rates decrease monotonically with age, while the fluorescence of collagen and elastin cross-links increases with age indicating accumulation of advanced glycation end-products. These trends were independent of geographical region, ethnic origin and season of measurement. Epidermal proliferation rates of facial skin were higher than those of unexposed sites; they may be 10 times higher in younger (second decade) than in older (seventh decade) individuals, and they decrease with age at rates 10 times faster compared with those of unexposed sites. Conclusions: This is the first time that epidermal proliferation and its dependence on ageing have been measured noninvasively on the human face. The higher tryptophan fluorescence values on the face vs. the protected site are indicative of accelerated rates of epidermal proliferation in the presence of chronic environmental insults. The repair potential of facial skin, i.e. its ability to maintain high proliferation rates, is maximal in younger populations and gradually decreases with age. © 2005 British Association of Dermatologists.",,125-132,,1,154,,Br.

Reef fish avoidance behavior has been shown to vary in the presence of divers and is primarily driven by spearfishing pressure. Diver avoidance behavior or fish wariness may spatially influence counts and other descriptive measures of fish assemblages. Because fish assemblage metrics are response variables for SDMs, measures of fish wariness may be useful as predictors in SDMs of fishes targeted by spearfishing. We used a diver operated stereo-video system to conduct fish surveys and record minimum approach distance (MAD) of targeted reef fishes inside and outside of two marine reserves on the island of O‘ahu in the main Hawaiian Islands. By comparing MAD between sites and management types we tested the assumption that it provides a proxy for fish wariness related to spearfishing pressure. We then compared the accuracy of SDMs which included MAD as a predictor with SDMs that did not. Individual measures of MAD differed between sites though not management types. When included as a predictor, MAD averaged at the transect level greatly improved the accuracy of SDMs of targeted fish biomass.

However, fishing impacts vary geographically and are difficult to disentangle from other factors that influence targeted fish distributions. We developed a set of fishing effort and habitat layers at high resolution and employed machine learning techniques to create regional-scale seascape models and predictive maps of biomass and body length of targeted reef fishes for the main Hawaiian Islands. Spatial patterns of fishing effort were shown to be highly variable and seascape models indicated a low threshold beyond which targeted fish assemblages were severely impacted. Topographic complexity, exposure, depth, and wave power were identified as key habitat variables that influenced targeted fish distributions and defined productive habitats for reef fisheries. High targeted reef fish biomass and body length were found in areas not easily accessed by humans, while model predictions when fishing effort was set to zero showed these high values to be more widely dispersed among suitable habitats. By comparing current targeted fish distributions with those predicted when fishing effort was removed, areas with high recovery potential on each island were revealed, with average biomass recovery of 517% and mean body length increases of 59% on Oahu, the most heavily fished island.

Wariness of targeted fishes towards divers, often measured as flight initiation distance (FID), has been shown to increase in areas where spear fishing pressure is higher. Additional research is required to understand how these patterns vary among different species and places. To support such studies, there is a need to explore the relationship of approach starting distance (SD) and other variables that influence measures of fish wariness. We used stereo video to record FID, a new direct measure of minimum approach distance (dMAD), and escape responses of targeted reef fishes in a marine reserve and heavily fished area in Hawai'i. We investigated the role of SD and 15 other variables in influencing FID and dMAD and tested differences between the reserve and fished area. SD explained a large portion of the variability in FID and somewhat less variability in dMAD. FID and dMAD were higher when fishes were travelling (vs feeding), increased with fish body length, and decreased with depth. When including these co-variates in models of FID and dMAD of targeted reef fishes, we found significant differences between study sites for dMAD, though not for FID. We also found differences in escape responses between sites. Based on these results, we recommend using stereo video to conduct measures of dMAD as a complement or alternative to FID, while simultaneously measuring SD and collecting additional data such as escape response. Relative effect sizes of SD and, to a lesser extent, other covariates were large in comparison to site. Studies that use similar methods and do not control for or incorporate SD may produce biased results with regard to the effects of fishing pressure on flight behavior of targeted fishes.",,579-590,,,96,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000464889600057,,,,,,,BODY-SIZE; Covariates; Fish behavior; Fishing pressure; Flight initiation distance; INITIATION DISTANCE; MANAGEMENT; Marine reserve; Minimum approach distance; PREDATION RISK; PREY; PROTECTION; Spearfishing; Starting distance; Stereo-video,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

U.S. National Marine Sanctuaries (NMS) have been designated to provide protection for their conservation, recreational, ecological, historical, scientific, cultural, archaeological, educational, or aesthetic qualities. Due to the large variability of attributes among NMS, designing coordinated system-wide monitoring to support diverse resource protection goals can be challenging. Underwater sound monitoring is seeing increasing application to marine protected area management because it is able to support this wide variety of information needs. Passive acoustics are providing invaluable autonomous information regarding habitat associations, identifying species spatial and temporal use, and highlighting patterns in conditions that are otherwise difficult to survey. Using standardized equipment and analysis methods this study collected ambient underwater sound data and derived measurements to investigate temporal changes in sound pressure levels and power spectral density, identify presence of select species of importance and support within and among site comparison of ambient underwater sound among eight sites within four U.S. NMS. Broadband sound pressure levels of ambient sound (10–24,000 Hz) varied as much as 24 dB re 1 µPa (max difference 100–124 dB re 1 µPa) among the recording sites, sanctuaries, and seasons. Biotic signals, such as snapping shrimp snaps and vocalizations of fishes, exhibited distinct diel and seasonal patterns and showed variation among sites. Presence of anthropogenic signals, such as vessel passage, also varied substantially among sites, ranging from on average 1.6–21.8 h/d.

Consequently, there is a requirement to undertake source-apportionment studies of pollutant fluxes within catchments. The inclusion of the Bathing Water Directive (BWD), under the list of 'protected areas' in the WFD places a requirement to control sources of faecal indicator organisms within catchments in order to achieve the objectives of both the BWD (and its revision - 2006/7/EC) and the WFD. This study was therefore initiated to quantify catchment-derived fluxes of faecal indicator compliance parameters originating from both point and diffuse sources. The Ribble drainage basin is the single UK sentinel WFD research catchment and discharges to the south of the Fylde coast, which includes a number of high profile, historically non-compliant, bathing waters. Faecal indicator concentrations (faecal coliform concentrations are reported herein) were measured at 41 riverine locations, the 15 largest wastewater treatment works (WwTWs) and 15 combined sewer overflows (CSOs) across the Ribble basin over a 44-day period during the 2002 bathing season. The sampling programme included targeting rainfall-induced high flow events and sample results were categorised as either base flow or high flow. At the riverine sites, geometric mean faecal coliform concentrations showed statistically significant elevation at high flow compared to base flow. The resultant faecal coliform flux estimates revealed that over 90% of the total organism load to the Ribble Estuary was discharged by sewage related sources during high flow events. These sewage sources were largely related to the urban areas to the south and east of the Ribble basin, with over half the load associated with the relatively small subcatchment of the River Douglas. The majority of this load was attributed to two WwTWs that discharge through a common outfall close to the tidal limit of this catchment. Budgets adjusted to accommodate the impact of proposed UV disinfection of these effluents showed that the load from these sources would be reduced significantly during base flow conditions. However, during high flow events loads would still remain high due to the operation of storm sewage overflows from stormwater retention tanks. The study identified untreated storm sewage spills from urban infrastructure and WwTW stormwater retention tanks as the dominant component of the high flow flux of faecal indicators to receiving waters of the Fylde coast and the associated bathing waters. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

These concerns have resulted in an increased interest in alternative methods for managing marine fisheries. One management option that is receiving increasing support is the use of marine protected areas (MPAs). MPAs theoretically have many intrinsic values, but also are characterized by a number of possible problems that can delay or prevent their projected benefits, especially if clear goals and objectives are not delineated prior to MPA development. More than 100 marine parks, reserves, and sanctuaries have been developed along the coast of California by agencies of different political levels. Each MPA has a different set of stated or implied goals. In many cases, MPAs with different goals, objectives, or regulations spatially co-occur. This has led to a disjointed MPA system in California that has several crucial problems. We are proposing a zoogeographic approach to the design and implementation of MPAs in California. The approach we propose acknowledges regional biotic differences and facilitates the development of goal oriented reserves. We provide an example of a way to develop a system of MPAs that has the goal of sustaining recreational and commercial fishery resources. AMPA system that is designed using this method will maximize the potential benefits of fish reserves while providing an environment for scientific research that can increase our understanding of marine ecosystems.",,[d]262-272,,,1,,,,,,,,ASCE,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Proc Conf California World Ocean,,,,Economic and social effects; Economic viability; Ecosystems; Environmental protection; Fisheries; Marine biology; Marine protected areas; Marine reserves; Ocean habitats; Zoogeographic approach,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Proceedings of the Conference on California and the World Ocean,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The effectiveness of Speed Restriction Zones (SRZs) as a management tool in this area was investigated during their second year of implementation by comparing dolphin usage and behaviour to adjacent Control Zones (CZs) of similar habitat. For this purpose, boat-based surveys and focal follows of dolphin groups were carried out in the zones between August 2008 and August 2009. Results showed that SRZs were more intensely used by dolphin-watching boats in summer. There was no change in dolphins' behaviour and group structure in the presence of dolphin-watching boats in SRZs when compared to dolphin groups within CZs in any season. Dolphin groups including calves used SRZs less during summer. The latter may indicate a shift in area utilisation for those groups during intense boat traffic by dolphin-watching operators. CZs were more important than SRZs as foraging grounds for dolphins in summer. This indicates that SRZs as specified are not effective at minimising boating impacts and that the location of these zones should in time be revised. This is important information for management of dolphin-watching within this marine park and an example of adaptive management in progress. Moreover these results are relevant for conservation of dolphins and the management of dolphin-watching industries elsewhere, particularly new industries, where management strategies may incorporate marine protected areas including zoning plans. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,258-264,,1,36,,Mar.

In areas where humanwildlife interactions occur, conservation management needs to be in place to secure both a viable tourism industry and the sustainability of the targeted species. Aims We sought to evaluate whether different approach distances by boat have effects on the behaviour and group cohesion of dolphins that are targeted by Australia's largest dolphin-watching industry. Methods The effects of different approach distances of boats on the behavioural states of dolphins, group dispersal and direction of movement were investigated in this area by controlled boat experiments conducted between August 2008 and December 2009. Key results Results showed that there was significantly less feeding when boats approached dolphin groups to a distance of 50m than when they did to a distance of 150m, or with controlled approaches. Resting was also observed significantly less when boats approached to a distance of 50m than when they approached to a distance of 150m. The dispersal of dolphin groups was significantly tighter (less dispersed) when boats approached to 50m than that with 150-m-distance or controlled approaches. Furthermore, the dolphins' direction of movement was less neutral when the experimental boat approaches were carried out at a distance of 50m than when they were carried out at a distance of 150m, or with controlled approaches. Similar results were also obtained for dolphin groups including calves. Conclusions On the basis of the results from this study, we recommend that the existing New South Wales regulations, which stipulate that dolphin-watching boats keep a distance of 50m to groups with adults only and 150m to groups with calves, are maintained within the Port StephensGreat Lakes Marine Park (PSGLMP).

The effects of this industry have been identified as of significant management importance by the Marine Parks Authority NSW. Accordingly, the impact of commercial dolphin-watching boats was investigated from boat-based surveys from August 2008 to August 2009. Presence of dolphin-watching boats altered both the dolphins' behavioural states and activity budgets. Dolphins spent 66.5% less time feeding and 44.2% less time socialising, spent four times more milling, and were never observed to rest in the presence of dolphin-watching boats. Moreover, dolphin groups were more cohesive during dolphin-watching boat encounters and dolphins tended to avoid tour boats. These effects were exacerbated as the number of boats increased and the distance from boats decreased. The rate of approach was high with boats approaching each dolphin group three times per day in winter and six times in summer. Moreover, groups of dolphins with newborns were approached closer than state regulated minimum approach distances in nine out of ten encounters. Globally, dolphin-watching industries frequent small resident groups of coastal dolphins and effects are likely to be similar. We suggest that existing controls are inadequate and that these together with additional regulations be enforced by a regular presence of authorities. We suggest no more than one dolphin-watching boat within 50. m of a group of dolphins, or 100. m if calves are present. Operating times of dolphin-watching boats should be restricted in numbers after 1pm, i.e., during preferred foraging times for dolphins. Additionally, exclusion zones should be considered to reduce pressure on dolphins undertaking critical activities such as feeding and resting. We recommend monitoring the effectiveness of new regulations that are incorporated in the reviewed marine park management plan in 2012 for a period of three years. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,14-21,,1,97,,J.

The Water Framework Directive has established a basis for the protection and restoration of European inland and coastal waters. In parallel, the Birds and Habitats Directives protect, maintain or restore, at favourable conservation status, selected species and habitats under a representative network of protected areas. Hence, the interplay between the EU regulations is of high scientific interest and practical relevance. In this article, Greece is used as a case study to explore whether anticipated synergies between the Water Framework Directive and the Nature Directives result in a better ecological status in the protected areas than in the non-protected ones. We investigated whether the ecological qualities that are defined by three biological quality elements (BQEs) differ between the WFD monitoring sites that are located within the Natura 2000 protected areas and those that are not. We identified a total of 148 river monitoring sites that are located within the Natura 2000 network, which corresponds to 30% of the WFD monitoring network. By employing ordered logit models for each BQE, we found that the ecological quality has the same likelihood to fail the WFD target of “good” quality for sites that are located within and outside the Natura 2000 protected areas. Our results confirmed our hypothesis that the EU directives have little synergy when it comes to restoration of ecological status of Greek running waters, according to the WFD. © 2021 by the authors.

In this study, the relationships between aquatic macrophytes and gradients of environmental factors were explored using an extensive set of data collected from 13 lakes of the Greek mainland that are part of the European network Natura 2000. The main objectives were to assess the importance of key abiotic predictors and estimate possible environmental thresholds of macrophyte richness, diversity, and abundance using boosted regression trees (BRTs), as well as to explore further the distribution of dominant macrophyte taxa along environmental gradients. The results reveal conductivity as a significant predictor of macrophyte total cover and diversity. In addition, orthophosphate and nitrate nitrogen appear to play an important role for several macrophyte species and assemblages, reflecting a major effect of eutrophication on the distribution of taxa. The majority of macrophyte assemblages were found in waters characterized by high nutrient content, although their distribution extends along a wide range of phosphorus and nitrogen concentration. In contrast, charophyte species show the optimum of their distribution in clear, oligotrophic waters. This integrated study can be used for ranking environmental factors that influence macrophyte distribution in the lakes of Greece and for identifying taxa or macrophyte assemblages that can be used as effective indicators of changes in the abiotic environment. In addition, the results can contribute to the conservation of freshwater habitats in the protected areas studied. In particular, measures that aim to improve water quality are expected also to restore oligotrophic habitats that are characterized by benthic charophyte vegetation. Overall, the links between macrophyte assemblages and abiotic factors are critically important in improving freshwater biodiversity management and environmental policies in east Mediterranean lakes.",,1133-1148,,7,29,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000475822100011,,,,,,,aquatic macrophytes; boosted regression trees; CLEAR-WATER; conductivity; DIVERSITY; environmental gradients; eutrophication; EUTROPHICATION; freshwater habitats; HABITATS; lakes; LAND-USE; PLANTS; SHALLOW LAKES; SPECIES RICHNESS; SUBMERGED MACROPHYTES; VEGETATION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The goal was to enable managers of a community conservation area to better understand the drivers of shrub encroachment and to test possible management actions for controlling shrubs. Due to limited site-specific data, we parameterized this model using insights from published literature, remote sensing, and expert opinion from scientists and local managers. We therefore sought to explore potential future scenarios rather than make highly accurate predictions, focusing on facilitating discussions and learning among the diverse co-management team. We evaluated three social-ecological scenarios with our model, examining: (1) the impact of changing precipitation regimes on vegetation, (2) whether changing the frequency of guassa grass harvests would improve the long-term sustainability of the grassland, and (3) whether the combination of grass harvest and shrub removal would affect shrub encroachment. We found that the model was highly sensitive to the amount of grass harvested each year for local use. Our results indicate that the guassa grass was more resilient than shrubs during persistent dry climatic conditions, whereas a reduction in only the early spring rains (known as the “belg”) resulted in considerable loss of grass biomass. While our modeling results lacked the quantitative specificity desired by managers, participants in the collaborative modeling process learned new approaches to planning and management of the conservation area and expanded their knowledge of the ecological complexity of the system. Several participants used the model as a boundary object, interpreting it in ways that reinforced their cultural values and goals for the conservation area. Our work highlights the lack of detailed scientific knowledge of Afroalpine ecosystems, and urges managers to reconnect with traditional ecological management of the conservation area in their pursuit of shrub encroachment solutions. The decline or absence of the belg rains is becoming increasingly common in the Ethiopian highlands, and our results underscore the need for more widespread understanding of how this changing climatic regime impacts local environmental management. This work lays a foundation for social-ecological research to improve both understanding and management of these highly threatened ecosystems. © 2022",,,,,316,,J. Environ.

Using a sign-based index of abundance, we measured 6-year trends in abundance and habitat use of five ungulate species after poaching ceased at a site in Thailand. Regression slopes of annual indices against time indicated population growth rates (r) of 0.44 and 0.31 for muntjac (Muntiacus muntjak) and gaur (Bos gaurus), respectively-close to the intrinsic rates of natural increase for similarly-sized ungulates. Thus, muntjac and gaur can recover relatively rapidly from low population levels. In contrast, sambar (Cervus unicolor) remained consistently rare despite freedom from hunting, perhaps because prime males had been selectively targeted for trophies, disrupting the species mating system. Wild pigs (Sus scrofa) were already relatively abundant when monitoring started, illustrating their resilience to hunting and ability to quickly recolonize disturbed areas. Gaur herds (the key demographic unit of the population) and muntjac consistently selected deciduous over evergreen forest as their populations increased, revealing the importance of food-rich deciduous forest in driving recovery of these species. The unexpected failure of sambar to recover suggests that reproductive behavior may override seemingly positive interventions (i.e., stopping poaching) that reduce mortality. Small but well-protected recovery zones set within forested areas might help propel population recovery of ungulates and increase the prey base for endangered tigers. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

To analyse the spatial distribution of this fish species, data on standardised biomass index (catch per unit effort, c.p.u.e., kg × 30 min-1) from 1996 to 2001 were used, regarding the third and fourth quarters of each year, respectively. Thereby we assume that the spatial distribution can be described as a time-invariant process. This assumption is supported by information on annual sampling effort, allocation of hauls and spatial distribution of the positive catches. All indicator variograms obtained for different c.p.u.e. cut-off values displayed distinct spatial structures, clearly indicating that the indicator variables were spatially autocorrelated. Gaussian models were fitted by least-squares methods and were evaluated with a goodness-of-fit statistic. Subsequently, IK was employed to estimate the probability of exceeding the c.p.u.e. cut-off values for the twaite shad in the investigation area. These were highest in the Weser- and Elbeestuary, probably because of migrations of twaite shad to and from estuaries at the time of investigation due to spawning, while within the German EEZ of the North Sea no such areas with increased probabilities could be discerned.

Still, conclusive evidence of their functioning is lacking, amongst others due to the influence of spatio-temporal variations in fish populations and habitat heterogeneity which could hamper a sound data interpretation. We conducted a spatial analysis of the benefits of the Medes Island Marine Reserve by combining geostatistical and Geographic Information System (GIS) tools. Concurrently, we analysed effects of trends reflecting habitat heterogeneity and spatial structuring of data on spatial predictions of fish catch per unit effort (CPUE) and length. Predicted spatial patterns showed the complexity and simultaneous action of trend factors leading to mostly non-linear gradients in CPUE and length data. CPUE of total fish and CPUE and length of common pandora (Pagellus erythrinus) increased close to the Integral Reserve due to direct and indirect reserve effects. CPUE and length of striped red mullet (Mullus surmuletus) slightly increased also near the Integral Reserve, but distinct reserve effects could not be identified due to the strong influence of artificial reefs. We conclude that the spatial dimension of the Buffer Zone, where artisanal fisheries are allowed, permits in general protection only for target species, favouring a habitat with no discontinuities from the reserve outwards. Our spatial approach to assess reserve benefits provides major insights into complex systems like coastal marine reserves in the northwestern Mediterranean.

However, in recent years there have been an increasing number of calls for interdisciplinary approaches to marine management, such as the widely cited “ecosystem approach to fisheries” (EAF), and MPAs are now increasingly being advocated to safeguard declining coastal fish stocks as well (Halpern, 2003; Hilborn et al., 2004). Coastal multiple-use MPAs can be found, e.g., in the tropics (Russ and Alcala, 1996; Abesamis and Russ, 2005), the north Pacific (Schroeter et al., 2001), and the Mediterranean and Atlantic regions (Dulvy et al., 2008; García-Charton et al., 2008). Often these coastal MPAs have a year-round no-take zone where all kinds of fishing activities are prohibited. Such a no-take zone is sometimes surrounded by a buffer zone or partial-take zone where commercial fishing is restricted to only small-scale or artisanal fishing (Claudet et al., 2008). In contrast, in many temperate regions such as the Georges Bank (Stokesbury et al., 2007) in North America, the Emerald/Western Bank on the Scotian Shelf (Frank et al., 2000), or parts of the North Sea, known to be productive fishing grounds, areas are either temporarily or permanently closed for fishing by the respective fisheries management authorities, with the aim of enhancing survivorship of spawning adults or juveniles on nursery grounds. According to the life history of the respective target species, some fisheries closures or exclusive fisheries MPAs such as, e.g., the hake closures in north-west Spain can have a strong seasonal component with fishery exclusion only lasting a few weeks or months each year. Besides the seasonal banning of fishing activity, other management measures can include restrictions on the gear types permissible within designated areas (Frank et al., 2000) or the type of fishing vessels (e.g., the Maltese 25-mile zone). Many closures established, e.g., in Europe under the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) were implemented as part of a package of measures to achieve a wider objective, for example recovery and replenishment of a particular stock (Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries, 2007). © Cambridge University Press 2011.",,168-189,,,,,,,,,,,Cambridge University Press,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Marine Protected Areas: A Multidisciplinary Approach DOI: 10.1017/CBO9781139049382.011,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Approaches able to fulfill this task may help to improve the efficiencyof large scale mapping and monitoring programs such as requested for the European Habitat Directive.In the present study, we used the maximum-entropy based classification approach Maxent to map fourhabitat types across a patchy landscape of 1000 km2near Munich, Germany. This task was conductedusing the low number of 125 ground reference points only along with easily available multi-seasonalRapidEye satellite imagery. Encountered problems include the non-stationarity of habitat reflectancedue to different phenological development across space, continuous transitions between the habitatsand the need for improved methods for detailed validation.The result of the tested approach is a habitat map with an overall accuracy of 70%. The rather simpleand affordable approach can thus be recommended for a first survey of previously unmapped areas, asa tool for identifying potential gaps in existing habitat inventories and as a first check for changes in thedistribution of habitats. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.",,211-217,,1,33,,Int.

This paper synthesises experiences of academics and practitioners involved in seven Australian case studies in which there have been attempts to integrate or take a broader, holistic perspective of management. The evaluative framework of Stephenson et al. (2019a) was used as a lens to explore, through workshops and a questionnaire survey, the nine key features and five anticipated stages of IM in the Gladstone Harbour Project, the Great Barrier Reef, the Northern Prawn fishery and regional development, the South-East Queensland Healthy Waterways Partnership, the Australian Oceans Policy, the New South Wales Marine Estate reforms, and progress toward Integrated Management in the Spencer Gulf. Workshops involving experts with direct experience of the case studies revealed that most of the key features (recognition of the need; a shared vision for IM; appropriate legal and policy frameworks; effective process for appropriate stakeholder participation; comprehensive suite of objectives (ecological, social, cultural, economic and institutional); consideration of trade-offs and cumulative effects of multiple activities; flexibility to adapt to changing conditions; process for ongoing review, evaluation and refinement; and effective resourcing) were seen as important in all case studies. However, there are only a few examples where key features of IM were implemented ‘fully’. A subsequent questionnaire of participants using ‘best-worst’ scaling indicated that an appropriate legal and institutional framework is considered to have most influence on IM outcomes, and therefore is the most important of the key features. This is followed in salience by effective stakeholder participation, effective resourcing, capacity and tools, and recognition of the need for IM. Key features may change in relative importance at different stages in the trajectory of IM. © 2023",,,,,234,,Ocean Coast.

Despite their potential, widespread use is impeded by regulatory constraints, especially in protected areas. Methods: This study aims to assess the impact of varying flight altitudes and flight approaches of two commercial drones on the behaviour of harbour seals (Phoca vitulina) and grey seals (Halichoerus grypus) and compare to existing findings for marine mammals. We conducted a comparative analysis of the response to flight altitude from 70 m gradually descending to 10 m and two different flight approaches between the DJI Phantom 4Pro and the Autel EVO II RTK drones in the Danish part of the Wadden Sea. Results: We found varying responses, where species-specific sensitivity and environmental conditions appeared to influence the behavioural reactions of the seals. Our results reveal that seal reactions to drones are complex and depend on several factors, such as flight altitude, drone model, received noise levels, approach, weather conditions, the animals’ annual cycle, and geographic location. Discussion: The outcomes hold significance for refining regulatory policies governing drone flights in protected marine environments, balancing conservation efforts with technological advancements in wildlife monitoring and ensuring undisturbed observations of seals.

On the example of special nature reserve Koviljsko-Petrovaradinski Rit the intensity of user´s interest is assessed based on qualitative content analysis and critical reasoning in combination with the techniques of triangulation, induction and deduction. By entering the estimated intensity of user interests into the analytical sheme (users categorized as forest owners- state/province and private, forestry employees, enterprises/institutions and citizens), the first conflicting zone was identified between the very strong interests in forest utilization (priority of profitable timber harvesting) and the interest field comprising the very strong and strong user interests for nature conservation. In addition, the state/province (public enterprise Vojvodinašume) is in an internal conflict, having (also) a very strong interest in wood production (creating revenues) on the one hand and in nature conservation on another. In order to balance them (towards the general social interest), the state/province has an advantage of being in the position to look internally for a solution, but the analytical scheme also shows how potential changes could trigger conflicts with other users (wood industry if protection is increased or nature protection actors if logging intensifies). The current solution of protection zones, divided into strict protection 6%, active protection 29% and profitable use of wood 65%, reflects the actual compromise package between the state/province andinterests of remaining users, which will last as long as the state/ province is in the position to support it with available political means. Whereas individual discourses take into account only partial aspects, the current approach has provided a comprehensive insight into Rit´s actors and interests. Methodological set-up of existing theoretically-based analytical categories has offered conclusions relevant for further research, forming at the same time a strong basis for more active communication of results with practice: users can more clearly perceive each other's positions and evaluate own abilities to act, while searching for the implementation concepts that work in practice. © 2021 Hrvatsko Sumarsko Drustvo.

Although the area covered by MPAs is expanding, there is a concern that opposition from resource users is driving them into already low-use locations, whereas high-pressure areas remain unprotected, which has serious implications for biodiversity conservation. We tested the spatial relationships between different human-induced pressures on marine biodiversity and global MPAs. We used global, modeled pressure data and the World Database on Protected Areas to calculate the levels of 15 different human-induced pressures inside and outside the world's MPAs. We fitted binomial generalized linear models to the data to determine whether each pressure had a positive or negative effect on the likelihood of an area being protected and whether this effect changed with different categories of protection. Pelagic and artisanal fishing, shipping, and introductions of invasive species by ships had a negative relationship with protection, and this relationship persisted under even the least restrictive categories of protection (e.g., protected areas classified as category VI under the International Union for Conservation of Nature, a category that permits sustainable use). In contrast, pressures from dispersed, diffusive sources (e.g., pollution and ocean acidification) had positive relationships with protection. Our results showed that MPAs are systematically established in areas where there is low political opposition, limiting the capacity of existing MPAs to manage key drivers of biodiversity loss. We suggest that conservation efforts focus on biodiversity outcomes and effective reduction of pressures rather than prescribing area-based targets, and that alternative approaches to conservation are needed in areas where protection is not feasible. © 2019 Society for Conservation Biology",,622-631,,3,34,,Conserv.

However, there was considerable heterogeneity in magnitude of effect among reserves, variability which was largely unexplained by species or reserve characteristics. Our analytical approach allowed for formal power analyses, indicating that detection of large reserve effects in temperate systems globally requires monitoring at least 37 reserves. These results must be qualified by the limitations of data available and will undoubtedly vary at different spatio-temporal scales and for different focal species, but provide guidance for the design and monitoring of future marine conservations plans.

Here, we present evidence suggesting that Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary (FGBNMS) is an important habitat for juvenile manta rays. Recent genetic evidence indicates that both oceanic mantas and a proposed third manta species (Mobula cf. birostris) are present at FGBNMS. Size estimates of mantas sighted at FGBNMS over 25 years of monitoring efforts indicate that 95% of individuals are smaller than the size at maturity for male M. birostris, and 80% are smaller than the size at maturity for M. alfredi.

Still, adaptive management strategies to maximize conservation success often rely on understanding the temporal and spatial dynamism of populations therein. Examination of environmental DNA (eDNA) is a time and cost-effective way to monitor species’ distribution, and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) provides information on organismal abundance. To date, however, such techniques remain underused for population assessments in protected areas. We determined eDNA concentration of the critically endangered Yangtze finless porpoise (Neophocaena asiaeorientalis asiaeorientalis) to describe its occurrence, range, and use of the Tian e-Zhou National Nature Reserve in Hubei, China, across seasons and hydrological depths. Despite the observation that total eDNA concentrations were highest in surface waters in summer, finless porpoise eDNA concentrations were significantly higher in deeper waters than in surface waters in summer. During the breeding season (spring), eDNA signals were site specific and restricted to the core area of the reserve. However, postbreeding eDNA concentrations were widespread across the reserve, encompassing sites previously thought to be unfrequented by the species. Our results suggest spatiotemporal idiosyncrasies in site, depth, and seasonal use of the reserve and a propensity for postbreeding population dispersal. With eDNA and qPCR we were able to assess an entire population's use of a protected area. Illuminating nuances in habitat use via eDNA could be valuable to set pragmatic conservation goals for this, and other, species. © 2017 Society for Conservation Biology",,1173-1182,,5,31,,Conserv.

Reserve systems based on these relatively low percentage targets are likely to require expansion in the future, resulting in the assembly of reserve systems over many years (incremental reserve design). How then will incremental reserve design, such as increasing percentage targets over time, affect the long-term efficiency of marine reserve systems? We used South Australia as a case study to investigate how changing percentage targets affects the contribution of individual planning units to efficient reserve design. Selection frequency counts provided a measure of a planning unit's conservation value. For the majority of planning units, changing targets led to a change in their conservation value indicating, for example, that planning units identified as high-value sites at a low-percentage conservation target may be of lesser importance when targets are increased. Despite the variability in the value of individual planning units at different targets, there was no loss in efficiency from incremental design of reserve systems based on systematic methods compared with purpose-built reserve systems (i.e., the system is assembled in a single iteration). The exception was when incrementally designed systems were based on South Australia's existing marine reserve system - a system developed in an ad hoc method. The result was reserve systems that were less efficient, less compact, and larger in size. This suggests that systematic approaches have an important role for efficient reserve design when there is uncertainty about the target level of reservation. © 2007 Society for Conservation Biology.",,346-354,,2,21,,Conserv.

In this paper we configured exploratory marine reserve systems, using the software MARXAN, to examine how efficiently South Australia's existing marine reserves contribute to quantitative biodiversity conservation targets. Our aim was to compare marine reserve systems that retain South Australia's existing marine reserves with reserve systems that are free to either ignore or incorporate them. We devised a new interpretation of irreplaceability to identify planning units selected more than could be expected from chance alone. This is measured by comparing the observed selection frequency for an individual planning unit with a predicted selection frequency distribution. Knowing which sites make a valuable contribution to efficient marine reserve system design allows us to determine how well South Australia's existing reserves contribute to reservation goals when representation targets are set at 5, 10, 15, 20, 30 and 50% of conservation features. Existing marine reserves that fail to contribute to efficient marine reserve systems constitute 'opportunity costs'. We found that despite spanning less than 4% of South Australian state waters, locking in the existing ad hoc marine reserves presented considerable opportunity costs. Even with representation targets set at 50%, more than half of South Australia's existing marine reserves were selected randomly or less in efficient marine reserve systems. Hence, ad hoc marine reserve systems are likely to be inefficient and may compromise effective conservation of marine biodiversity.",,25-38,,,253,,Mar. Ecol. Prog.

By comparison, socio-economic information is seldom a formal consideration of the reserve system design problem and generally limited to an assessment of threats, vulnerability or compatibility with surrounding uses. This is perhaps surprising given broad recognition that the success of reserve establishment is highly dependent on widespread stakeholder and community support. Using information on the spatial distribution and intensity of commercial rock lobster catch in South Australia, we demonstrate the capacity of mathematical reserve selection procedures to integrate socio-economic and biophysical information for marine reserve system design. Analyses of trade-offs highlight the opportunities to design representative, efficient and practical marine reserve systems that minimise potential loss to commercial users. We found that the objective of minimising the areal extent of the reserve system was barely compromised by incorporating economic design constraints. With a small increase in area (<3%) and boundary length (<10%), the economic impact of marine reserves on the commercial rock lobster fishery was reduced by more than a third. We considered also how a reserve planner might prioritise conservation areas using information on a planning units selection frequency. We found that selection frequencies alone were not a reliable guide for the selection of marine reserve systems, but could be used with approaches such as summed irreplaceability to direct conservation effort for efficient marine reserve design. © Springer 2005.",,203-213,,3,10,,Environ.

However, there is currently a knowledge gap on how useful marine marginal habitats may be for conserving endangered marine species. Here, we investigate the potential of groundwater-fed coastal areas for the conservation of the queen conch, an economically and culturally important marine gastropod. Location: The inlet of Xel-Há, typical of groundwater-fed coastal areas widely distributed along the Yucatan Peninsula coast in Mexico and partially protected by a network of marine protected areas. Methods: We tracked 66 queen conchs (Lobatus gigas) using acoustic telemetry over a period of 3.5 years. We investigated for ontogenetic niche shift using a network analysis and by modelling their growth. Results: The queen conchs exhibited the same ontogenetic niche shift required to complete their life cycle in this marginal habitat as they do in offshore core habitats. A total of 33 individuals departed the inlet and migrated from shallow groundwater-affected nursery grounds to deeper marine habitats more suitable for breeding aggregation. Main conclusions: As the broad-scale movement behaviour of queen conch in this inlet is similar to that observed on the overfished core habitats, our findings suggest that groundwater-fed coastal areas should be included in conservation planning for an effective management of this species within a network of marine protected areas. © 2020 The Authors.

Recreation brings important benefits to human well-being, and allowing people to experience nature in protected areas can also provide revenue and support for conservation objectives. However, not all recreational activities are compatible with environmental management goals. Here, we show how a coastal protected area can be zoned to satisfy both recreational and conservation objectives. We collected empirical data on the effect of recreational disturbance to foraging shorebirds in Moreton Bay Marine Park, Queensland, Australia, and calculated the benefit of alternative protected area zone types on shorebird representation using a zero-inflated negative binomial model. The predictions from this model were used to optimize a zoning plan in a linear programming framework that balances recreational use with shorebird conservation. Costs reflect foregone recreational opportunity, thereby facilitating solutions that minimize restrictions on recreational use of the coastline. We discover a consistent negative effect of recreational use of the foreshore on shorebird occupancy and abundance and show that, despite this, zoning can be used to achieve shorebird representation targets with only a small cost to recreational opportunity. When dog recreation is permitted at all sites, a 91% shorebird representation target can be met, indicating that de facto patterns of recreation were rather well segregated from areas used by shorebirds. By restricting dog recreation to five sites and allowing people to access all other foreshore sites, shorebird representation increased to 97%. Synthesis and applications. Our approach of calculating the contribution of each zone type towards conservation objectives results in zoning plans with robust estimates of conservation benefit that can be readily implemented by managers. Specifically, we estimated the effects of removing people and domestic dog recreation within each intertidal site on shorebird abundance to inform coastal zoning plans. Incorporating cost as foregone recreational opportunity results in zoning plans that minimize the number of people required to make a behavioural change. Compliance to zone types is often ultimately voluntary so integrating the current intensity of recreational use is more likely to generate workable zoning plans. © 2016 The Authors.

Population monitoring has identified a decline in oystercatcher numbers, but cannot determine whether this is due to a decline in site quality. Long term data on cockle stocks show that the biomass of the large-sized cockles consumed by oystercatcher declined after 2004, whereas a similar decline was not observed in the smaller cockles consumed by knot. The model postdicts that during the winters of 2005/2006 to 2008/2009 the site was unable to support the number of oystercatcher present at the time it was designated (i.e. the SPA population). Large cockle biomass remained low during 2009/2010, but increases in mussel biomass meant that the model postdicted that the site could support the SPA population of oystercatcher. Knot food supplies remained high during most years, except 2008/2009 during which the model postdicted that the SPA population could not be supported. The model postdicted that the stock reserved for oystercatchers after shellfishing needed to be 2-4 times the amount consumed by the birds in order to support the bird population. We recommend that where necessary, the conservation objectives of waterbirds should be assessed using a combination of thorough population size and behaviour monitoring to identify sites with population declines, and individual-based modelling on these sites to determine whether reduction in site quality may contribute to the site-specific population decline. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.",,2617-2630,,11,143,,Biol.

Using the fan mussel, Atrina fragilis (Pennant 1777), as our case species, the aim of the study was to predict new areas of occurrence for A. fragilis, estimate the extent of potentially suitable areas, determine the proportion of these areas that are included in the recently designated nature conservation MPAs off the west of Scotland and identify possible environmental drivers in the distribution of A. fragilis. Location: West coast of Scotland, UK. Methods: Using a point process framework, we modelled presence-only data, including historic records. A quadrat survey employing digital still photography was conducted in areas of high and low suitability to verify the model, and subsequently, a targeted survey was undertaken in areas predicted as highly suitable by the models using towed video cameras. Results: Five environmental variables were of prime importance in explaining the distribution of A. fragilis. The results from the verification survey support model performance. Atrina fragilis was found in 80% of the targeted transects undertaken. Approximately 14% of the total area predicted as suitable for A. fragilis occurred within recently designated marine protected areas (MPAs) indicating considerable potential for recolonization given suitable protection. Main conclusions: The verified model suggests that limited presence-only and historical records of rare species can perform well within a SDM framework allowing the identification of further suitable areas. The prominence of bathymetric ruggedness in the models is unexpected, given the understood ecological niche for A. fragilis and pinnids in general, but is consistent with the fact that seabed topography can offer protection from fishing pressure. These results will inform restoration objectives of the MPA network. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,808-822,,7,22,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,Atrina fragilis; benthic environment; Benthic habitats; bivalve; digital photogrammetry; ecological modeling; Ecological niche modelling; environmental factor; Fishing impacts; fishing mortality; Historic records; historical record; Inhomogeneous point process models; marine park; nature conservation; Pinnidae; population distribution; population modeling; Presence-only; rare species; Rare species; Scotland; Species distribution modelling; United Kingdom; videography,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Using the spiny lobster Palinurus elephas as our model organism, we evaluate the effectiveness of baited underwater video (BUV) for estimating abundance in areas with widely different population density. We test three BUV abundance metrics and compare the results with an independently obtained abundance index from trammel-net surveys (Trammel). Video metrics used to estimate relative abundance include a value for total number of individuals per recording (TotN), the traditional maximum number of fish observed in a single video frame (MaxN), and the recently suggested alternative, the average of the mean MaxN from 5-minute periods throughout the duration of the recording (MeanN). This is the first video study of a wild population to include an estimate for TotN. Comparison of TotN with the other two BUV relative abundance metrics demonstrates that both of the latter lack resolution at high population densities. In spite of this, the three BUV metrics tested, as well as the independent estimate Trammel, distinguished high density areas from low density areas. Thus they could all be used to identify areas of differing population density, but MaxN and MeanN would not be appropriate metrics for studies aimed at documenting increases in abundance, such as those conducted to assess marine protected area effectiveness, as they are prone to sampling saturation. We also demonstrate that time of first arrival (T1) is highly correlated with all of the abundance indices; suggesting T1 may be a potentially useful index of abundance. However, these relationships require further investigation as our data suggests T1 may not adequately represent lobster abundance in areas of high density. © 2015 Stobart et al.

The position of GWI causes a large number of possible hydrocarbons inputs that influence the quality of both river waters and sediments. The main objective of this research is to assess the distribution and source of hydrocarbons in sediments deposited at the GWI depending on the river’s flow regimes and depositional environment. Material and methods: Sediment samples were collected from 16 sites (11 sites along the GWI’s coast, 4 sites from the inner of the Island, and 1 specific wetland site). The grain size was determined using a standard wet sieving procedure. The extractable organic matter (OM) was quantified after Soxhlet extraction, and aliphatic and aromatic fractions were isolated by column chromatography. n-Alkanes, diterpanes, terpanes, steranes, and 16 PAHs are analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Results and discussion: Sand fraction predominates in coastal samples, and clay size fraction in the samples from the inner island environment. The predominance of odd higher n-alkanes indicates the terrestrial origin of OM, while the distribution of lower n-alkanes indicates a certain proportion of algae, bacteria, and/or high maturity of OM. The presence of oil-type pollutants is confirmed by thermodynamically stable biomarker isomers and/or the presence of unresolved complex mixture (UCM). Inner island samples are characterized by the largest amount of Corg (up 6%), indicating high bioproductivity and good preservation of OM. Samples from wetland environment are distinguished by the domination of pimaranes and phyllocladanes among saturated hydrocarbons. Conclusions: This study revealed that sediments of the GWI mainly contain native OM with a certain anthropogenic input. The native OM predominately comes from higher terrestrial plants (Salix alba, Populus nigra, Fraxinus viridis, Taxodium distichum Rich.), followed by various types of grasses, macrophytes (Salvinia natans, Nymphaea alba), bacteria, algae, and phytoplankton. Anthropogenic OM originates from petroleum, but also combustion products arrived by deposition from the air and runoff. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.",,640-655,,2,22,,J.

Karsten) natural populations situated in Serbia, belonging to the southern lineage of the species at the southern margin of the species distribution range. Four populations occur as disjunct populations on the outskirts of the Dinaric Alps mountain chain, whereas one is located at the edge of Balkan Mountain range and, therefore, can be considered as ecologically marginal due to drier climatic conditions occurring in this region. Due to the negative effect of biotic and abiotic stress factors, the sustainability of these populations is endangered, making conservation of their genetic resources one of the key measures of Norway spruce persistence in Serbia under climatic changes. The insight on genetic diversity and genetic structure of the studied spruce populations can provide the information required for the initiation of programs aimed at the conservation and utilization of spruce genetic resources at the rear edge of species environmental limits. Norway spruce genetic variation and population genetic structure were estimated using eight EST-SSR markers. The results showed that mean expected heterozygosity was 0.616 and allelic richness 10.22. Genetic differentiation among populations was low (Fst = 0.007). No recent bottleneck effect or isolation by distance were detected. Bayesian clustering, obtained with STRUCTURE, grouped the populations into two genetic clusters, whereas UPGMA analysis distinguished three main groups approximately in line with the geographic area of occurrence. Based on the study results and the EUFORGEN Pan-European strategy for genetic conservation of forest trees, the establishment of additional dynamic gene conservation units must be considered in Serbia in order to protect the adaptive and neutral genetic diversity of the species. © 2019 by the authors.",,,,3,10,,Forests,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI AG,,,,Balkan Mountains; Biodiversity; Biotic and abiotic stress; Climatic conditions; coniferous tree; Conservation; conservation genetics; endangered species; environmental stress; EST-SSR; EST-SSR markers; Forestry; Genes; Genetic differentiation; Genetic diversity; genetic marker; genetic structure; Norway; Norway spruce; Picea; Picea abies; Picea Abies; Plants (botany); population distribution; Population genetic structure; population genetics; Serbia; Species distributions; sustainability; Sustainable development,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We provide a comprehensive overview of adult green turtle (Chelonia mydas) distribution during nesting, migration and foraging phases, highlighting transitory as well as residential areas of high use to facilitate adequate protection for this long-lived, migratory species. Location: Mediterranean Sea. Methods: Thirty-four females were satellite tracked from breeding grounds in the four countries with major nesting (Cyprus, Turkey, Israel and Syria) for a total of 8521 (mean: 251) tracking days in a collaborative effort to summarize the most comprehensive set of distribution data thus far assembled for this species in the Mediterranean. Results: Ten foraging grounds are identified, with two major hotspots in Libya accounting for >50% of turtles tracked to conclusive endpoints. The coastlines of Egypt and Libya contain high densities of migrating turtles following the nesting season, particularly July-September, and likely also pre-nesting (April-June). A high-use seasonal pelagic corridor running south-west from Turkey and Cyprus to Egypt is also evident, used by >50% of all tracked turtles. Main conclusions: Bycatch levels and mortality rates for the key foraging areas and high-density seasonal pathways identified here are largely unknown and should be investigated as a priority. We recommend that the Gulf of Sirte in Libya be explored as a potential biodiversity hotspot and considered for proposal as a marine protected area (MPA).

Evaluating the placement of 157 ACEs in the San Francisco Bay Area of California produced mixed results. Preservation and development of agricultural land were both consistent with general plans. In contrast, we found little evidence of ACEs being used on a regional scale either to reinforce urban growth boundaries or to coalesce with other open space to form large contiguous blocks of protected areas. We used the TOPSIS method (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) to identify the most strategic agricultural lands, which are quite different from where easements have been established through 2002. We encourage planners to consider strategic targeting of ACEs as a politically acceptable mechanism to complement traditional planning tools to minimize low density sprawl. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

Although a system of 8 MPAs has been in effect for ~15 years on the island, adherence of fishers to the boundaries and public support for the current management plan (PGEM) is spotty. This study uses underwater surveys of 9 taxa of reef fish to evaluate how effective fishing restrictions in Moorea, French Polynesia are for conserving populations of commonly targeted fish in the backreef habitat. The current study investigates the effectiveness of Moorea's MPAs on conserving populations of commercial reef fish by measuring abundance and size structure of commonly targeted fish just in 2019, and long-term biomass monitoring data from 2004 through 2018. There were increases in commercial reef fish abundance in MPAs for most taxa and there were differences in size distributions for 3 of the taxa between MPAs and fished control sites in 2019. Generally, more individuals of larger size classes were present in MPA sites compared to fished control sites. However, time series data from the last 15 years revealed no significant increases in harvested fish biomass in protected areas relative to fished control sites in the backreef habitat. Increased efforts in policy enforcement, community awareness, and biological monitoring are required at Moorea's MPAs and others worldwide to ensure protected areas truly are effective. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,121,,Mar.

There is much guidance on the optimal design of MPAs but once potential MPAs are identified there is little guidance on defining the final no-take boundaries. This is especially problematic in temperate zones where ecological boundaries are ""fuzzy"", which can be quite complicated during a consultation process involving the government and divergent stakeholder groups. More decision-support tools are needed to help stakeholders and government agencies objectively compare conservation and socio-economic trade-offs among proposed boundary options. To that end, we developed a method to identify which boundary minimizes spatial overlap of highly vulnerable species and a dominant stressor. We used the recently proposed boundary options of a candidate MPA in Atlantic Canada to illustrate our method. We evaluated the vulnerability of 23 key species to bottom trawling, the most prevalent stressor in the area. We then compared the spatial overlap of the most vulnerable species and the 2002-2011 footprint of bottom trawling among boundary options. The best boundary option was identified as that which minimized spatial overlap and total area. This approach identifies boundary options which provide the greatest protection of vulnerable species from their most significant stressor, at limited socio-economic cost. It is an objective decision-support tool to help stakeholders agree on final boundaries for MPAs. © 2014 Elsevier GmbH.",,45-52,,,23,,J. Nat.

Major threats include global warming, destructive land uses, industrial pollution and eutrophication. The challenge for this generation is to establish practices for the sustainable utilisation of the resources that are adaptable to changing baselines. In particular, progress on integrated coastal zone management (ICZM) objectives is needed to manage human activities to enable the preservation of coastal fish stocks, sustain coastal and recreational fishery and to preserve those species' contribution to a healthy ecosystem. The concept of ICZM has been introduced in most European countries, but in practice, the fragmented administrative and management systems do not provide a framework for communication between authorities. Spatial planning, using geographic information system maps, has gained popularity as an ICZM tool, but its increasing use has uncovered the urgent need to develop habitat maps for coastal resources for their protection or sustainable exploitation. © 2009 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,25-34,,,,,,,,,,,Wiley-Blackwell,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Integrated Coastal Zone Manage.

While boulder reefs in temperate waters hold high biomass and biodiversity, and may be unable to recover from anthropogenic stressors without restoration efforts, little is known about how to restore and conserve this important marine habitat. Limited knowledge is a serious impediment to projects aimed at restoring boulder reefs that have been degraded or removed by substrate extraction. In 2008, a boulder reef was restored in Kattegat, the transitional waters between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea, using differently sized boulders. The restored reef covered approximately 27,600 m2 seafloor and included 100,712 tons of boulders added at depths ranging between 4 and 11 m. This paper describes methodology and lessons learned during the restoration project. Before the restoration, geological and geotechnical surveys confirmed that the sea bed could support added boulders, and high resolution bathymetric surveys provided input for the design of the reef, particularly for numerical modelling of the hydrographic and sediment transport conditions. Numerical modelling was used to derive hydrographic design conditions for boulder placements and further, to ensure that the restored reef would not affect the sea bed morphology and hydrographic conditions at a local harbour and at a protected habitat, both situated in the vicinity of the restoration area. Data on the physical structure of the restored boulder reef, collected in 2009, demonstrated that cavernous structures and shallow reef areas were restored. Moreover, data collected in 2012 confirmed the stability of the restored reef. Finally, results highlighted the importance of stakeholder mapping at the outset, appropriate timing of stakeholder involvement and ongoing consideration of stakeholder perceptions. Charting strategy and introducing a checklist for marine restoration projects, this paper outlines important considerations and methodology needed to ensure that restoration of temperate reef structures meet the objectives, without having undesirable effects on existing hydrographic and morphological conditions, including nearby coastal areas and protected marine habitats. © 2017 Elsevier B.V.",,468-482,,,102,,Ecol.

Whilst there is an increasing understanding of the global significance of seagrass habitats, the extent of these habitats is declining globally. The requirement to implement effective seagrass conservation and management strategies is thus becoming increasingly important. If the ambitions of the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals are to be achieved, then nations need ambitious and applicable marine conservation plans. This includes management and protection to vulnerable ecosystems such as seagrass meadows. This study aims to evaluate a range of seagrass management and conservation approaches identified in different geographic regions, using a critique framework developed from the United Nations Environment Programme 2020 report on seagrass “Out Of The Blue: The Value Of Seagrasses To The Environment And To People’. Using the framework, seagrass management in Scotland is used as a case study and compared nationally to the rest of the UK (England, Wales and Northern Ireland) and internationally, to Europe (Wadden Sea), Australia (Great Barrier Reef Marine Park) and West Africa (Senegal). The results identify potential areas of development in Scotland to enhance its seagrass conservation effort, including increased research in seagrass science, widespread mapping of seagrass, long-term monitoring programmes, improved marine protected areas, inclusion of seagrass protective measures into environmental laws and policies and the implementation of appropriate habitat restoration schemes. The results also identify the need for open data if effective knowledge sharing is to take place, and to ensure that ocean science can fully support countries to achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,146,,Mar.

Location: 30 MPAs worldwide and nearby sites (within 10 km). Taxa: Cover of key functional groups for coral (total, branching, massive and tabular), and algae (total, filamentous, foliose) and total biomass of reef fish trophic groups (excavator, scraper, browser, higher carnivore). Methods: We used a global dataset obtained using standardized survey methods at 465 sites associated with 30 MPAs in 28 ecoregions to test the effects of five key MPA attributes (>10 years old, well-enforced, no-take, large and isolated) on coral cover, algal cover and reef fish biomass. We also tested the direct (reducing disturbance by human activities) versus indirect pathways (increasing grazing potential through recovering populations of herbivorous fishes) by which MPAs can influence coral and algal cover. Results: Only well-enforced, no-take and old (>10 years) MPAs had higher total coral cover (response ratio 1.08–1.19×) than fished sites, mostly due to the increased cover of massive coral growth forms (1.34–2.06×). This effect arose through both the direct influence of protection and indirect benefits of depressed algal cover by recovering herbivorous fish biomass. Neither the direct (standardized coefficient = 0.06) nor indirect effects (standardized coefficient = 0.04) of no-take protection on coral cover were particularly strong, likely reflecting regional differences in fishing gear, targeted species and trophic webs. Conclusions: MPAs promote the persistence of some functional groups of corals, and thus represent an important management tool, globally. © 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,Sep-20,,1,25,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,algae; algal cover; Anthozoa; biomass; coral reef; data set; ecoregion; fish biomass; functional group; grazing; herbivore; herbivorous fishes; human activity; impacts of fishing; marine park; marine reserves; Pisces; predatory fishes; protected area; Reef Life Survey; trophic interaction; trophic interactions,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We evaluated an underexplored dimension of the mismatch between climate and biota: limitations to forest growth and succession affecting habitat suitability. Our objective was to inform continental-scale conservation for boreal songbirds under disequilibria between climate, vegetation and fauna. Location: Boreal and southern arctic ecoregions of North America. Methods: We used forest inventory and avian survey data to classify 53 species by seral-stage affinity and applied these to generate alternative projections of changes in species' core habitat distributions based on different vegetation lag-time assumptions. We used our seral stage-modified refugia approach and the Zonation algorithm to identify multispecies boreal conservation priorities over the 21st century. We evaluated the sensitivity of land rankings to seral-stage affinity and species' weights and assessed the conservation value of the existing protected areas network compared to Zonation results. Results: End-of-century projected changes in songbird distribution were reduced by up to 169% when vegetation lags were considered. Zonation land rankings based on unconstrained climate projections were concentrated at high latitudes, whereas those based on strict and modified refugia scenarios were concentrated in coastal and high-elevation areas, as well as biome transition zones, which were fairly consistent over time and species weights. The existing protected areas network covering 14% of the study area was estimated to conserve 12-14% of baseline avian biodiversity across time periods and scenarios, compared to 16-25% for top-ranked Zonation areas. Main conclusions: For some boreal songbirds, limits to forest growth and succession may result in dramatic reductions in suitable habitat over the next century. Our seral stage-adjusted approach provides conservative and efficient boreal conservation priorities anchored around climatic macrorefugia that are robust to century-long climate change and complement the current protected areas network. 2015 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,1112-1128,,9,21,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,Arctic; Aves; biodiversity; biome; boreal forest; Boreal forest; climate change; Climate change; community structure; conservation management; conservation planning; Conservation planning; growth rate; North America; Passeri; population distribution; protected area; refuge; Refugia; songbird; Songbirds; Species distribution models; succession; vegetation structure,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We developed a new framework to assist planning environmental representativity in a network across the marine space of Portugal, responding to a political commitment to protect 14% of its area by 2020. An aggregate conservation value was estimated for each of the 27 habitats identified, from intertidal waters to the deep sea. This value was based on expert-judgment scoring for environmental properties and features relevant for conservation, chosen to reflect the strategic objectives of the network, thus providing an objective link between conservation commitments and habitat representativity in space. Additionally, habitats’ vulnerability to existing anthropogenic pressures and sensitivity to climate change were also scored. The area coverage of each habitat in Portugal and within existing MPAs (regionally and nationally) was assigned to a scale of five orders of magnitude (from <0.01% to >10%) to assess rarity and existing representation. Aggregate conservation value per habitat was negatively correlated with area coverage, positively correlated with vulnerability and was not correlated with sensitivity. The proposed framework offers a multi-dimensional support tool for MPA network development, in particular regarding the prioritization of new habitats to protect, when the goal is to achieve specific targets while ensuring representativity across large areas and complex habitat mosaics. It requires less information and computation effort in comparison to more quantitative approaches, while still providing an objective instrument to scrutinize progress on the implementation of politically set conservation targets. © 2019 The Authors",,,,,17,,Glob.

Here, biological information is compared for the two species and governance and monitoring data from Portugal are reviewed to propose species-specific courses of future action. Despite a national fisheries legislation common for the two species and the designation of Sites of Community Interest (SCIs) for both, the current conservation needs for sea lamprey and allis shad in Portugal are considered to be distinct. For sea lamprey, conservation priorities must focus on planning fisheries management in articulation with habitat recovery to guarantee cost-effective monitoring and sustainable long-term exploitation that adds value to local communities and pays due taxation. On the contrary, conservation concerns and actions for allis shad must strengthen and be more proactive in the reduction of fishing mortality, both target (in rivers) and bycatch (at sea). There is a need to make better use of the opportunities inherent in the Habitats Directive and the possibility to define specific management actions within SCIs. To this effect, it will be necessary to revise existing legislation and guarantee better articulation between jurisdictional authorities. A good example in this direction is the articulation already established in the river Mondego where habitat restoration, fish monitoring and effective species-specific fisheries control measures have been taken and implemented in recent years by a large institutional partnership. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd",,92-99,,,73,,Mar.

NEPA directs federal agencies to undertake an integrated environmental planning process that encompasses the totality of environmental resources. The NEPA process contains ""action-forcing"" mechanisms that prompt agencies to consult with other agencies possessing specialized expertise or regulatory jurisdiction over a potentially affected resource. Many of these consultations satisfy specific regulatory requirements through resource-specific regulations such as Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act and Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. The case studies presented within this article are used to demonstrate a 9-step integrated process for integrating regulatory agency consultations and supporting studies with the completion of an Environmental Assessment (EA) or an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The three case studies (Case Study 1, a Supplemental EIS for the Meramec Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant; Case Study 2, an EA for a variety of water infrastructure improvement projects; and Case Study 3, an EA for the placement of an undersea cable within a National Marine Sanctuary) illustrate how regulatory agency consultations can be integrated into the NEPA process using this 9-step method. Implementation of the method ensures that (1) adequate planning, crucial project decisions, and environmental considerations are identified; (2) the chance of potential conflicts with regulatory agencies because of inadequate regulatory considerations is reduced; (3) timely and costly delays in the completion of the NEPA process are avoided; and (4) the NEPA process is streamlined to produce a legally defensible and comprehensive NEPA document. © 2003 National Association of Environmental Professionals.",,371-378,,4,5,,Environ.

Some habitats in protected areas, however, are rare and/or variable and are not often selected for study by ecologists because they preclude comparison with controls and high community variability makes meaningful change detection difficult. Shallow coastal saline lagoons are habitats that experience comparatively high levels of stress due to high physical variability. Lagoons are rare, declining habitats found in coastal regions throughout Europe (and elsewhere) where they are identified as one of the habitats most in need of protected area management. The infauna in the sediments of 25 lagoons were sampled. Temporal and spatial variation in three of these [protected] lagoons was investigated further over 5 years. In a multivariate analysis of community structure similarities were found between some lagoons, but in other cases communities were unique or specific to only two sites. The protected lagoons with these unique/specific communities showed significant temporal and spatial variation, yet none of the changes observed were attributed to human impacts and were interpreted as inherent variability. Multivariate control charts can operate without experimental controls and were used to assess community changes within the context of 'normal' lagoon variability. The aim of control chart analysis is to characterize background variability in a parameter and identify when a new observation deviates more than expected. In only 1 year was variability more than expected and corresponded with the coldest December in over 100 years. Multivariate control charts are likely to have wide application in the management of protected areas and other natural systems where variability and/or rarity preclude conventional analytical and experimental approaches but where assessments of condition, impact or regulatory compliance are nonetheless required. © 2013 The Authors.

In this paper, we use a risk-based approach to map ES in mountain forests, which are experiencing an increasing rate of natural disturbances, such as windthrow, bark beetle outbreaks, and forest fires. These disturbances affect the capacity of forests to provide essential ecosystem services, such as protection from natural hazards, wood production, and carbon sequestration, thus posing a challenge for forest management. At the same time, disturbances may also have a positive effect on certain services, e.g. by improving habitats for species that rely on dead wood. We integrate forests’ susceptibility to natural disturbances into probabilistic Bayesian Network models of a set of ES (avalanche protection, carbon sequestration, recreation, habitats, and wood production), which combine information from remote sensing, social media and in-situ data, existing process-based models, and local expert knowledge. We use these models to map the level of the services and the associated uncertainties under scenarios with and without natural disturbances in two case study areas in the Swiss Alps. We use clustering to identify bundles of risk to ES, and compare the patterns of risk between the non-protected area of Davos and the strictly protected area of the Swiss National park with its surroundings. The spatially heterogeneous pattern of risk to ES reflects topographic variability and the forest characteristics that drive disturbance susceptibility, but also the demand for ecosystem services. In the landscape of Davos, the most relevant risks to ES are related to decreases in the protection against avalanches and carbon sequestration, as well as some risk to wood production and recreation. In the strictly protected Swiss National Park, the overall level of ES risk is lower, with an increase in habitat quality under the disturbance scenario. This risk-based approach can help identify stands with high levels of ES that are particularly susceptible to disturbances, as well as forests with a more stable ES provision, which can help define priorities in forest management planning. © 2021 The Authors",,,,,296,,J.

This study evaluates the risk of disturbance from maritime activities to seabirds in order to prioritize critical seabird foraging habitat for conservation thereby providing a much-needed methodological contribution demonstrating how to transparently incorporate metrics of “cost” based on risk to support ocean zoning. We standardized and combined predicted seabird distributions for six nonresident species foraging in the non-coastal “offshore” waters in the Greater Farallones National Marine Sanctuary and Cordell Bank National Marine Sanctuary, which we predicted using ten years of Applied California Current Ecosystem Studies (ACCESS) at-sea data for the month of July. We obtained maritime activity data from the California Ocean Use Atlas, whale-watching data, expert consultation, and primary literature. Activities included benthic fishing with fixed and mobile gear, military operations, oil spill, shipping, and whale-watching. Risk calculations were based on management effectiveness, spatial and temporal overlap of activities with seabird distributions, changes in area, and severity of negative impacts. Of those activities evaluated with the InVEST Habitat Risk Assessment (HRA) model, higher risk activities were oil spill, benthic fishing with fixed or mobile gear, and military activities. Looking at all risks spatially, highest cumulative risk areas concentrated to the north and northeast of Cordell Bank, along segments of the shelf break, and along areas of the shipping lanes. We demonstrated the use of the HRA tool to quantify costs for use in Marxan habitat prioritization software. The HRA model provided a transparent and replicable cost metric that partitioned risk into exposure and consequence. This approach provided two options for meeting high priority seabird foraging protection goals in the Sanctuaries: 1) protecting the low cost Marxan-prioritized areas or 2) managing high risk maritime activities highlighted by the HRA model. Waters around the Farallon Islands, nearby and northeast of Cordell Bank, and to the southwest of the continental shelf break in the southern region of Greater Farallones National Marine Sanctuary were identified as areas where seabirds would benefit from a combination of adding protections to some low cost Marxan-prioritized areas and enhancing management of the primary disturbance resulting from higher risk activities of oil spill, benthic fishing with mobile or fixed gear, and military activities, each of which have spatial footprints contributing to high cost Marxan prioritized areas. Either approach could be scaled up to include a larger habitat area, multiple habitat types, and different maritime activities. Our methods can be applied globally to improve ocean zoning where critical wildlife areas are threatened by human activities. © 2020 The Authors",,,,,199,,Ocean Coast.

We integrate climate velocity into the identification of conservation priorities for sharks, aiming to elucidate the shark conservation effectiveness and gaps in conservation efforts within China?s surrounding waters. Furthermore, the study endeavors to predict the spatial distribution and changes of these conservation priorities for sharks under the influence of climate velocity. The shark habitats of 146 species simulated by the ensembled species distribution models were adopted as conservation targets. The opportunity costs of protection are associated with climate velocity under tow climate change scenarios from 2015 to 2100. Based on the principles of systematic conservation planning, this study simulate the current and future conservation priorities for sharks. The findings revealed that: (1) the hotspots of shark diversity could be found from the southern region of the Yangtze Estuary reaching to the Taiwan Strait, together with the coastal waters of the Beibu Gulf. Moreover, the Taiwan Strait was identified as an important area for the distribution of rare and endangered species. In comparison to endangered and vulnerable species, critically endangered species are less common and more concentrated in the South China Sea. (2) When the two climate scenarios are compared, it is discovered that the climate velocity under SSP585 is significantly higher than that under SSP126, the central and southern South China Sea would face a high climate change risk under both scenarios. However, the climate velocity in the coastal waters from the Yangtze Estuary to the Pearl River Estuary was relatively low, suggesting that the area could become a climate refuge. (3) Existing protected areas protected only 1.33% of the sea and less than 4% of shark species, indicating a significant protection gap. Most shark species could be protected if marine protection was increased to 10%. Furthermore, with a 30% protection rate, the habitat of rare and endangered species would be effectively protected. That is, if only the broad compatibility of species conservation is considered, low conservation ratios already have a good conservation effectiveness. However, when focusing on the conservation of rare and endangered species, a high conservation ratio is necessary. (4) The protection priorities would shift as a result of climate change, particularly in the South China Sea. If climate velocity is considered a cost in conservation planning, climate pressure in conservation priorities can be reduced by 25% while maintaining similar protection targets. In that case, the identified conservation priorities would have a high potential of climate change adaptation. © 2023 Science Press.

We interviewed 800 fishers along 2400 kilometers of the Humboldt Current System (HCS) coast, assessing fishers’ perceptions of the impacts of marine predators on fishing and their proposals to reduce conflicts with small-scale net fisheries. Vessel captains saw seabirds as positive indicators of fish presence along the HCS (mean probability 62.7%). In contrast, sea lions were perceived negatively, affecting catches for all fishers and causing fishing gear damage among gillnet fishers (97.1%). Among different measures suggested by fishers to reduce conflicts with non-target taxa, night fishing and marine protected areas (MPAs) were viewed as least likely to be implemented because these affect fishing performance (6% and 13.1%) through changes to at-sea safety and fishing effort displacement, respectively. In contrast, economic compensation and culling of currently protected sea lions were the most popular but also the most sensitive measures (31% and 33%, respectively). Different dimensions of experiences and perceptions of fishers are key to the bottom-up understanding of interactions in small-scale fisheries. This is especially true when measures to mitigate their impacts do not have any consolidated installation/monitoring, which is a continuing challenge for these types of fisheries globally. This study emphasizes the role of small-scale fishers as a source of diverse ecological experiences and perceptions to complement knowledge on sensitive conservation issues. © 2024, Marine Ornithology.

The Indian crested porcupine (Hystrix indica; hereafter porcupine) is distributed southeast and central Asia, however, the porcupine occurrence and habitat use is poorly understood in the area. We deployed cameras at 154 sites for 21 days (3234 trap nights) during December 2022–March 2023 in the human-dominated landscape of Parsa-Koshi Complex (PKC), Madesh Province, Nepal. We used single season single species occupancy model to estimate the relationship of selected covariates with porcupine occupancy. We identified moderate occupancy [0.321 ± 0.079 (SD)] and detection probability [0.315 ± 0.076 (SD)] of porcupines. Although porcupine occurrence was greater in protected area than in outside protected areas, occupancy was positively associated with area of farmland (1.531 ± 1.703) and human presence (0.459 ± 0.531), while it declined with increasing forest canopy cover (-0.86 ± 0.363). The positive effects of agricultural areas and human presence demonstrate the adaptability of porcupines to humans and the potential for continued conflicts. Based on these baseline data, policy makers and wildlife managers can gain insight into the pattern of porcupine occurrence and aid targeted conservation strategies to mitigate increasing human-porcupine conflicts in PKC. © 2024 Subedi et al.

Robust assessments of forest condition are critical for successful forest management, but many existing techniques are highly technical, time-consuming, expensive or require specialist knowledge. To make assessment of tropical forests accessible to a wide range of actors, many of whom may be limited by resources or expertise, the High Conservation Value Resource Network (HCVRN), with the SE Asia Rainforest Research Partnership (SEARRP), developed a South East Asian version of the Forest Integrity Assessment (FIA) tool as a rapid (< 1 hour) method of assessing forest condition in the field, where non-experts respond to 50 questions about characteristics of the local environment while walking a site transect. Here, we examined the effectiveness of this survey tool by conducting ? 1000 assessments of forest condition at 16 tropical rainforest sites with varying levels of disturbance in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo. We found good agreement (R-squared range: 0.50–0.78) between FIA survey scores and independent measures of forest condition, including biodiversity, vegetation structure, aboveground carbon and other key metrics of ecosystem function, indicating that the tool performed well. Although there was variation among assessor responses when surveying the same forest sites, assessors were consistent in their ranking of those sites, and prior forest knowledge had a minimal effect on the FIA scores. Revisions or further training for questions where assessors disagree, for example, on the presence of fauna at a site, could improve consistency. We conclude that the FIA survey tool is a robust method of assessing forest condition, providing a rapid and accessible means of forest conservation assessment. The FIA tool could be incorporated into management practices in a wide range of forest conservation schemes, from sustainability standards, to community forestry and restoration initiatives. The tool will enable more organizations and individuals to understand the conservation value of the forests they manage and to identify areas for targeted improvements. © 2021 The Authors.

At a national level, they are central components in the U.S. commitment to conserve at least 30% of U.S. waters by 2030. By definition, the primary goal of an MPA is the long-term conservation of nature; however, not all MPAs provide the same ecological and social benefits. A U.S. system of MPAs that is equitable, well-managed, representative and connected, and includes areas at a level of protection that can deliver desired outcomes is best positioned to support national goals. We used a new MPA framework, The MPA Guide, to assess the level of protection and stage of establishment of the 50 largest U.S. MPAs, which make up 99.7% of the total U.S. MPA area (3.19 million km2). Over 96% of this area, including 99% of that which is fully or highly protected against extractive or destructive human activities, is in the central Pacific ocean. Total MPA area in other regions is sparse – only 1.9% of the U.S. ocean excluding the central Pacific is protected in any kind of MPA (120,976 km2). Over three quarters of the non-central Pacific MPA area is lightly or minimally protected against extractive or destructive human activities. These results highlight an urgent need to improve the quality, quantity, and representativeness of MPA protection in U.S. waters to bring benefits to human and marine communities. We identify and review the state of the science, including focal areas for achieving desired MPA outcomes and lessons learned from places where sound ecological and social design principles come together in MPAs that are set up to achieve national goals for equity, climate resilience, and biodiversity conservation. We recommend key opportunities for action specific to the U.S. context, including increasing funding, research, equity, and protection level for new and existing U.S. MPAs.

Many of these targets recognize the importance of the quality, not just quantity, of areas that are included in the 30 %, such as marine protected areas (MPAs). For example, the Convention on Biological Diversity's Global Biodiversity Framework Target 3 calls for areas to be effectively conserved and managed, ecologically representative, well-connected, and equitably governed. Protecting a percent area is not the sole goal – protection must be effective and equitable. To better understand the quality of biodiversity conservation afforded, in addition to the quantity of area protected, we looked at MPAs across 13 studies that used The MPA Guide and related tools to track Stage of Establishment and Level of Protection as measures of expected biodiversity conservation outcomes across diverse locations, scales, and cultural, political, and conservation contexts. We show that standardized assessments of MPA quality can help to (1) evaluate and improve existing MPAs; (2) plan new MPAs; (3) compare the quality of MPA protection across various scales; (4) track MPA quality, including progress towards coverage targets; (5) enable clear communication and collaboration, and (6) inform actions needed to achieve policy targets and their underlying environmental and social goals, among others.

Data on the North East Atlantic cod stock are used to determine the bioeconomically optimal size of a marine reserve for the Barents Sea cod fishery, as a function of the net transfer rate between the protected and unprotected areas of the marine habitat. The single agent model developed, allows for the occurrence of a shock to the system in the form of severe recruitment failure in the non-protected area. Two key results emerge from the study. First, establishment of marine reserves are bioeconomically beneficial when net transfer rates for cod are 'reasonably' high and reserve sizes are large: large reserves provide good protection for the stock in the face of the shock, while high transfer rates make the protected fish available for harvesting after the shock has occurred. Further, optimally chosen reserve size when net transfer rates are high, also mitigates against biological losses. Second, when net transfer rates are low, the establishment of marine reserves does not mitigate against losses in the discounted economic rent, while they tend to be efficient in mitigating against biological losses.

Developing an objective, automated and repeatable approach to extract meaningful information from such vast quantities of data is now essential. Many automated or semi-automated approaches have been defined to achieve this goal. However, such efforts have resulted in classification schemes that are isolated or bespoke, and therefore it is necessary to form a standardised classification method. Sediment wave fields are the ideal platform for this as they maintain consistent morphologies across various spatial scales and influence the distribution of biological assemblages. Here, we apply an object-based image analysis (OBIA) workflow to multibeam bathymetry to compare the accuracy of four classifiers (two multilayer perceptrons, support vector machine, and voting ensemble) in iden-tifying seabed sediment waves across three separate study sites. The classifiers are trained on high-spatial-resolution (0.5 m) multibeam bathymetric data from Cork Harbour, Ireland and are then applied to lower-spatial-resolution EMODnet data (25 m) from the Hemptons Turbot Bank SAC and offshore of County Wexford, Ireland. A stratified 10-fold cross-validation was enacted to assess overfitting to the sample data. Samples were taken from the lower-resolution sites and examined separately to determine the efficacy of classification. Results showed that the voting ensemble clas-sifier achieved the most consistent accuracy scores across the high-resolution and low-resolution sites. This is the first object-based image analysis classification of bathymetric data able to cope with significant disparity in spatial resolution. Applications for this approach include benthic current speed assessments, a geomorphological classification framework for benthic biota, and a baseline for monitoring of marine protected areas. © 2021 by the authors.

Most biodiversity assessment-related studies use the change in species abundance data to measure the level of biodiversity conservation. Yet for many areas, long-term species data are not available and thus it is necessary to use biodiversity indices to monitor the effect of land use (LU) changes or the impact of protected area establishment. Poyang Lake wetland is one of the most important wintering sites for migratory water birds on the East Asian-Australasian flyway. To protect this habitat, 14 nature reserves were created in the region between 1997 and 2003. This paper aims to assess the effect of nature reserve creation on the status of habitat for overwintering water birds in Poyang Lake wetland by analysing LU and land cover data from 1995, 2005 and 2015. We developed a composite biodiversity index to search for current biodiversity hotspots (conservation priority) in the study area. An integrated approach consisting of the Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Trade-offs model, GIS, fragment analysis and hotspot analysis was used to realize our objective. Our results showed that the creation of the nature reserve had positive effects on overwintering water bird habitat. However, tremendous changes (such as change of habitat area, quality and fragmentation) within and outside the nature reserve showed that the role of protected area still needs to be further discussed. Moreover, regional synthesis LU management plans such as ecological restoration should be carried out. The results of the habitat assessment also indicate that a comprehensive biodiversity index framework based on net primary productivity, habitat connectivity and habitat quality could be more efficient in assessing biodiversity and defining a reasonable protected area, from data obtain in large scale perspective. © 2020 The Author(s).

A preliminary and simplified optimization model is presented and used in an IDSS to decide optimal fishing effort of marine reserves for the protection of species. The analysis is based on a bio-economic model which is examined as a dynamic control system in continuous time. A target point is obtained that maximizes yield while minimizing the impact of fishing on population biomass and that reduces the risk. A new approach using neural network is developed as a tool to produce a formula for forecasting fish stock recruitment. It is demonstrated that a well trained artificial neural network reveals an extremely fast convergence and a high degree of accuracy in the prediction of fish stock recruitment. 1553-9105/ Copyright © 2009 Binary Information Press.,,1339-1347,,3,5,,J.

An emergency evacuation organization strategy of nuclear power plant planning restricted area is established. Which is implemented by establishing an multi-objective integrated optimization model based on bus evacuation for nuclear power plant emergency. Firstly, based on the theory of minimum cost flow, a three-layer objective optimization model was established with the shortest total travel time of all evacuation buses as the primary objective, the shortest total evacuation distance of all evacuation buses as the secondary objective, the reliability of travel time as the third objective, and the constraint conditions of flow conservation, setting reversible lanes and eliminating intersection conflict points. Secondly, the route selection model based on adaptive ant colony algorithm is improved, and the travel time is combined with road saturation and attraction factor can prevent congestion drift phenomenon and improve the prediction accuracy of road network state. The optimal solution set of the model is obtained by using the improved algorithm through case verification.

The present study reviews the applications of landscape ecology to coastal land use and land cover changes with an emphasis on landscape pattern analysis and optimization; coastal wetland landscape fragmentation and its ecological effects; the role of island-oriented planning and design in landscape exploration and protection; marine applications of landscape pattern analysis and assessment; marine environmental processes; and coupling of spatial patterns. The focus is on the progress and challenges of these main issues. In addition to the objectives and requirements for the construction of ecological civilization in China, the advantages of landscape ecology in scale matching, pattern-process coupling, and landscape pattern quantitative assessment are addressed. According to landscape pattern and process theory, the selection and accompanying graphic design of reclamation sites must take into consideration the normal marine biological and hydrological processes. As far as ecological restoration of the coastal zone and landscape construction is concerned, we highlight the importance of restoring ecological processes in addition to restoring landscape patterns. Based on the theories of landscape heterogeneity, island biogeography, and minimum area requirements, the patches of high ecological value are outlined and managed as marine conservation areas. The introduction of new landscape types and pattern adjustment to island landscapes is proposed for further development. With regard to the management of source and sink landscape types in land-marine planning, upstream landscape pattern optimization for the control of downstream aquatic eutrophication is also discussed.

We tested the hypothesis that remotely sensed chl a measurements spanning a decade can predict marine bird movements and distributions and provide insight into persistent seabird 'hotspots'. To test this hypothesis, we developed a temporally and spatially explicit chl a variance metric that explained up to twice the variation (90%) in seabird distributions than mean chl a values in our model system, the California Current. Our chl a variance metric - the frequency of chlorophyll peaks index (FCPI) - quantifies the frequency of chl a anomalies that exceed 1 standard deviation from the mean, relative to a spatial model for the ecosystem. Using the FCPI, we identified locations of high chl a anomaly persistence amidst considerable habitat heterogeneity from British Columbia, Canada, to Baja California, Mexico. Calculating variance and persistence metrics such as FCPI over large temporal scales may be preferable to analyzing mean or median chl a values over shorter time scales if understanding or predicting predator distributions is a goal of the research. As a static habitat layer, we suggest that the FCPI integrates time lags, physical forcings, and food web processes that can thwart attempts to link primary productivity and predator distributions in pelagic ecosystems. Additionally, identifying important ecological areas reflecting persistently elevated productivity and predator abundance is critical to marine spatial management and conservation. © Inter-Research 2012.",,213-225,,,451,,Mar.

It is not well-known how these levels affect protected area (PA) governance. This review systematically maps and analyses how the empirical scientific literature has constructed the links between three CS engagement levels (contributory, collaborative, co-created CS) and their outcomes for protected areas’ governance. From our search results (5486 records), 63 articles dealt with the topic in-depth. The most common engagement level was contributory CS. Almost all collaborative and co-created CS projects were conducted outside Europe or North America. All CS levels support the strategy-formation phase of the governance cycle, whereas collaborative CS supports the monitoring and evaluation phase, and co-created CS the practical implementation. The collaborative/co-created CS supports legislative, cooperation-based, and information instruments, whereas economic instruments are not well-recognised by any CS level. Collaborative and co-created CS target a more diverse set of actors and governance levels, than contributory CS. Collaborative and co-created CS often mention project funding and collaboration as factors to achieve the outcomes, whereas contributory CS frequently mentions CS cost-effectiveness. In our total sample, CS is mainly conducted in national parks and Marine Protected Areas and targets simple monitoring objects. It shows a knowledge gap for other PA types and points to the need to diversify monitoring indicators. We suggest PA managers explore the potential of collaborative and co-created CS, especially in the European and North American context, as these CS levels support a more complex set of practice-oriented governance outcomes needed for strategic adaptive PA management. © 2024 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,82,,J.

Humpback dolphins are the most common nearshore cetaceans found along the Indian coast. The taxonomy is confused, but two or more species of humpback dolphins may be present in India. Dedicated research on humpback dolphins and other cetaceans has been initiated only in the past few years and vast gaps in the ecology and conservation of the genus from the region remain. Dedicated and opportunistic research indicates that humpback dolphin presence is continuous along the west coast of India, owing to the contiguous favourable habitat of shallow nearshore waters, while along the east coast humpback dolphins are apparently found in pockets. Humpback dolphins are also the most numerous in incidental catch records from the coast, owing to the large overlap in space use with nearshore fisheries like small gillnets, trawls, shore seines and purse seines. Along many coastal sites, humpback dolphins are known to cause damage and depredation of fish catch of certain fishing gears, making them unpopular. At the same time, many fishers along the west coast have developed local dolphin-watching programmes as an alternate source of livelihood, providing positive impetus for conservation. However, research on the long-term effects of dolphin watching and its management is required.

We sought to assess whether systematic reserves designed using abiotic domains adequately conserve a comprehensive range of species in a tropical marine inter-reef system. We based our assessment on data from the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. We designed reserve systems aiming to conserve 30% of each species based on 4 abiotic surrogate types (abiotic domains; weighted abiotic domains; pre-defined bioregions; and random selection of areas). We evaluated each surrogate in scenarios with and without cost (cost to fishery) and clumping (size of conservation area) constraints. To measure the efficacy of each reserve system for conservation purposes, we evaluated how well 842 species collected at 1155 sites across the Great Barrier Reef seabed were represented in each reserve system. When reserve design included both cost and clumping constraints, the mean proportion of species reaching the conservation target was 20-27% higher for reserve systems that were biologically informed than reserves designed using unweighted environmental data. All domains performed substantially better than random, except when there were no spatial or economic constraints placed on the system design. Under the scenario with no constraints, the mean proportion of species reaching the conservation target ranged from 98.5% to 99.99% across all surrogate domains, whereas the range was 90-96% across all domains when both cost and clumping were considered. This proportion did not change considerably between scenarios where one constraint was imposed and scenarios where both cost and clumping constraints were considered. We conclude that representative reserve systems can be designed using abiotic domains; however, there are substantial benefits if some biological information is incorporated. © 2015 Society for Conservation Biology.",,657-667,,3,29,,Conserv.

Human–elephant conflict is a growing global problem. To mitigate such conflict, understanding factors affecting elephant intrusions into human-dominated areas is crucial. These factors are, however, complex because they are site specific and context dependent. Aims. This study aimed to identify factors associated with crop damage incidents from elephants in a buffer zone of a protected area in western Thailand. Methods. Interviews were conducted with local people to quantify crop damage by elephants between November 2020 to April 2021. We used compositional analysis to determine whether different crop types received different damage from elephants, and logistic regression analysis to examine environmental factors associated with crop damage incidents. Key results. Although it was previously thought that elephants focus on dominant palatable crops, we found that small patches of highly preferred crops can influence where elephants choose to feed. Distance from village was also a significant factor in crop foraging. Crop damage was not different between dry and wet seasons, probably because key crops were available year-round. Conclusions. Crop damage occurred across multiple crop types but mainly those with higher sugar content. The damage mostly occurred in fields farther from villages, suggesting that presence of humans may alter elephant crop foraging. No specific seasonal period of crop damage was observed. Implications. Changing crop types from species preferred by elephants to less preferred species and growing mixed species (multi-crop systems) instead of single species (mono-crops) may reduce elephant incursions. However, this needs field testing, including market-based assessments to evaluate the economic viability for farmers. © 2024 The Author(s) (or their employer(s)).

In 2004, a new zoning plan for the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park increased no-take areas from 4.5% to 33% of the total Park area. The aims of this study were to measure recreational fishers' level of support for the plan and understand how they form attitudes towards conservation initiatives in the Park. A survey of Great Barrier Reef Marine Park recreational fishers conducted three years after implementation of the new zoning plan revealed that 68% of fishers believed that, in general, rezoning the Marine Park was a good idea, whereas 57% supported the actual zoning plan that was implemented. A majority of fishers believed that rezoning the Marine Park was necessary, that the new zoning plan had high conservation value, and that the plan had little impact on their recreational fishing activity. However, most fishers had low to moderate satisfaction with the programme used to consult the public throughout the rezoning process. Logistic regression models revealed a strong relationship between level of support for the plan and fishers' perceptions about the necessity of the plan and its conservation value, the adequacy of the consultation process, and the impact of the plan on their fishing activity. Results indicate that recreational fishers can be strong supporters of conservation initiatives in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park if these initiatives are consistent with their values, and if efforts are made to engage them in the decision making process. These results will enhance the ability of managers to generate support from the recreational fishing community for conservation initiatives in marine environments. © Foundation for Environmental Conservation 2009.",,245-252,,3,36,,Environ.

Objectives: Our objective was to analyze the spatial patterns and structural connectivity of intact and primary forests in northern Sweden with focus on the Scandinavian Mountain region; one of the few remaining large European intact forest landscapes. Methods: Over 22 million ha with 14.5 million ha boreal and subalpine forest and with data consisting of a 60-70 year retrospective sequence, we analyzed distribution, density and connectivity of forests that have not been clear cut, using moving window and landscape analyzes derived from Circuitscape. Results: We revealed a contiguous, connected and semi-connected intact forest landscape forming a distinct Green Belt south to north along the mountain range. Almost 60% of the forestland remains intact, including contiguous clusters 10,000 ha and larger. The connectivity is particularly high in protected areas with primary forests outside contributing substantially to overall connectivity. We found gaps in connectivity in the southern parts, and furthermore low or absent connectivity across the whole inland and coastal areas of northern Sweden. Conclusions: Given its ecological values, the Scandinavian Mountains Green Belt is a key entity supporting ecological legacies, boreal biodiversity and ecosystem services, resilience and adaptive capacity, which needs to be safeguarded for the future. On the very large areas outside the mountain region, forestlands are severely fragmented, connectivity values are lost, and forest landscape restoration is needed for conservation and functional green infrastructure. © 2020, The Author(s).",,2113-2131,,9,35,,Landsc.

For most coastal areas the strengthening of customary marine tenure, rules and regulations should yield even greater biodiversity and livelihood benefits. Here, we present the conservation planning results from a locally-managed marine area programme initiated by the Government of Aceh, Indonesia, which aimed to empower coastal communities to sustainably and equitably manage marine resources with local government. In 2008 the government established a Marine and Fisheries Task Force to identify priority areas for marine biodiversity (through systematic conservation planning) and coastal communities (through participatory planning). In addition to the existing 264,788 ha of marine management units, systematic planning identified another 53,372 ha. However, the subsequent stakeholder participation phase, involving intensive local consultations, further expanded the locally-managed marine area network by 6,725 ha and to a total of 23 locally-managed marine areas. This combined approach had additional benefits because it generated a strong sense of local ownership. For communities it initiated a process for recognizing their customary claimed areas and resolved overlapping boundaries between neighbouring communities, thereby reducing the likelihood of future conflicts over natural resource use. For government, it provided the basis of a robust governance system, with 34 new or revised decrees being completed and an additional USD 1.6 million being allocated for implementation of locally-managed marine areas. This participatory approach should considerably increase the successful delivery of a sustainable and equitable locally-managed marine area network for Aceh, which has wide application for the South-east Asian region and beyond. © 2012 Fauna & Flora International.",,516-524,,4,46,,ORYX,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Aceh; Aceh Green; best management practice; biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION; CLUZ; coastal zone management; community resource management; community-based; Community-based; conservation management; conservation planning; Conservation planning; governance approach; Indonesia; learning; local government; local planning; marine park; marine protected area; Marine protected area; OPPORTUNISM; Panglima Laot; prioritization; RESERVES; resource use; social learning networks; Social learning networks; stakeholder; sustainability,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Indonesia’s fishing industry is a significant contributor to the national economy. To address these challenges, the Coral Triangle region, including Indonesia, is striving for marine conservation through Marine Protected Areas. Striking a balance between environmental sustainability and economic growth is vital, and this is being achieved through Blue Economy policies and the adoption of eco-friendly fishing technology. The Bajo tribe, renowned for their maritime culture, plays a crucial role in managing marine resources. This study focuses on evaluating the effectiveness of fishing gear used by the Bajo community in Wakatobi, Indonesia, with a specific emphasis on achieving Sustainable Development Goals. The research employed quantitative and qualitative methods, gathering primary data through interviews, observations, and focus groups, as well as secondary data from government sources. A SWOT analysis was utilized to assess the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats within the Blue Economy sector. The results revealed that the Bajo community’s involvement in resource management is demonstrated by their careful use of eco-friendly fishing gear, which effectively protects the sea and enhances the welfare of Bajo fishermen. Additionally, their partnership with the Forestry Police aids in marine monitoring and fishing operations, contributing to the sustainability of Wakatobi National Park. The Bajo Mola community, deeply reliant on the sea, holds a unique position among sea nomadic tribes, and their maritime culture is intertwined with marine resources. The development of a Blue Economy policy is crucial for both environmental preservation and economic sustainability, with a focus on maximizing strengths and opportunities identified through the SWOT analysis. This approach aligns with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal 14, which emphasizes the conservation and sustainable use of marine resources. © 2024, Thai Society of Higher Eduation Institutes on Environment.

Global efforts to protect biodiversity in areas beyond national jurisdiction require substantial international cooperation and negotiation, both of which are characterized by unpredictability and high levels of uncertainty. Here we build on recent studies to adapt forecasting techniques from the fields of hazard prediction, risk assessment, and intelligence analysis to forecast the likelihood of marine protected area (MPA) designation in the Southern Ocean. We used two questionnaires, feedback, and a discussion round in a Delphi-style format expert elicitation to obtain forecasts, and collected data on specific biophysical, socioeconomic, geopolitical, and scientific factors to assess how they shape and influence these forecasts. We found that areas further north along the Western Antarctic Peninsula were considered to be less likely to be designated than areas further south, and that geopolitical factors, such as global politics or events, and socioeconomic factors, such as the presence of fisheries, were the key determinants of whether an area was predicted to be more or less likely to be designated as an MPA. Forecasting techniques can be used to inform protected area design, negotiation, and implementation in highly politicized situations where data is lacking by aiding with spatial prioritization, targeting scarce resources, and predicting the success of various spatial arrangements, interventions, or courses of action. © Copyright © 2021 Sykora-Bodie, Álvarez-Romero, Arata, Dunn, Hinke, Humphries, Jones, Skogrand, Teschke, Trathan, Welsford, Ban, Murray and Gill.",,,,,8,,Front.

To address this, sustainable management of protected areas is essential. This study aims to develop a methodology for monitoring and assessing levels of nocturnal anthropogenic aggression in the Comoé National Park (CNP) in Côte d'Ivoire. By using geospatial data from the Day/Night Band of the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS/DNB), the study characterizes the nocturnal anthropization of CNP through the use of several indices. First, light reflectance density is used to identify nighttime light emission foci. Second, the lighted area density index (LADI) is employed to understand the nature of nocturnal activities taking place within CNP, as indicated by artificial light at night (ALAN). Finally, the light intensity index (LII) is used to evaluate the degree of influence of nocturnal anthropogenic activities on biodiversity. The study also found important activities through LADI and observed a high level of light pollution in CNP. Ultimately, the findings of this study indicate that there is a significant level of nocturnal anthropization within CNP, highlighting the need for effective management and conservation efforts in the area. © 2023 Gaoussou Sylla et al., published by Sciendo.",,292-300,,3,42,,Ekol.

In line with these targets, the Commission on the Conservation of Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) has been working towards adopting MPAs in the Southern Ocean. CCAMLR is considered a leader in science-based management and has been guiding the way on international MPAs. The west Antarctic Peninsula, threatened by climate change and industrial fishing, has been a priority area for MPA planning in CCAMLR. Since 2011, Chile and Argentina have worked to develop an Antarctic Peninsula MPA proposal which they submitted to CCAMLR in 2018. We use the Antarctic Peninsula MPA proposal process as a case study for understanding the science-policy interface in this international conservation regime. Specifically, we use existing frameworks for co-production of actionable science to examine the Antarctic Peninsula MPA process. We show that the Antarctic Peninsula MPA Proponents engaged in a highly collaborative, transparent, and science-based process which exemplified best practices for actionable science and co-production. Despite following best practices for actionable science, the MPA proposal has not yet been adopted, largely due to political barriers. We elaborate on the importance of co-production of actionable science and its effectiveness as well as to limitations in the Southern Ocean and beyond. Finally, we highlight that science-policy best practices may not be sufficient to drive consensus and the ultimate need for political will in the decision-making underpinning MPA designation in the Southern Ocean. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,111,,Mar.

Aim To summarise current knowledge on the possible relationship between early feeding practices and the risk of coeliac disease (CD). Methods The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, and EMBASE databases were searched in May 2011, and the search was updated in January 2012, and again in July 2012. Results Breastfeeding (BF) and CD: some studies show a protective effect of BF, while others show no effect. No studies have shown a long-term preventive effect. BF at the time of gluten introduction and CD: Results from a meta-analysis of five observational case-control studies suggest that BF at gluten introduction is associated with a lower risk of CD compared with formula feeding. It is unclear whether BF provides a permanent protection or only delays the onset of CD. Timing of gluten introduction: The data suggest that both early (?4 months) and late (?7 months) introduction of gluten may increase the risk of CD. Amount of gluten at weaning (and later) and CD: One incident case-referent study documented that the introduction of gluten in large amounts compared with small or medium amounts increased the risk of CD. Conclusions In the absence of clear evidence, in order to decrease the risk of later coeliac disease, it is reasonable to avoid both early (<4 months) and late (?7 months) introduction of gluten, and to introduce gluten while the infant is still being breastfed.

In this study, a combination of geographic information systems (GISs) and multi-criteria decision-making method (MCDM) is proposed as a framework supporting an ecosystem approach to European sardine (Sardina pilchardus, Clupeidae) fishery management in Portugal. This case study was chosen due to the recent severe decline shown by the species. To develop an EAFM for the sardine fishery, a set of criteria were defined based on literature review and expert knowledge. To address multiple conflicting objectives, namely conservation and fisheries, five scenarios were considered: (i) baseline; (ii) nurseries protection; (iii) spawning areas protection; (iv) fishery profit driven, and (v) safeguarding dependent fishing communities. Combination of GIS and MCDM methods highlighted important areas to implement spatial conservation measures for sardine. The analyses indicate that some areas are suitable for conservation in several scenarios, such as the area near Aveiro and the area near the Tejo estuary. However, conservation measures implemented in the area near Aveiro would imply higher economic trade-offs when compared with the actions applied in the region near the Tejo estuary. Results also suggested some of the conservation objectives, such as the protection of sardine eggs and juveniles, to not be compatible. The proposed framework is an important tool supporting EAFM by addressing conflicting objectives, trade-offs and identifying areas that could be considered as potential fishery closure sites or subjected to further analyses.

Both remote sensing data and botanical reference data were gathered for mentioned habitats in the Lower (LB) and Upper Biebrza (UB) River Valley and the Janowskie Forest (JF) in different seasonal stages. Several different classification scenarios were tested, and the ones that gave the best results for analyzed habitats were indicated in each campaign. In the final stage, a recommended term of data acquisition, as well as a list of remote sensing products, which allowed us to achieve the highest accuracy mapping for these two types of wetland habitats, were presented. Designed classification scenarios integrated different hyperspectral products such as Minimum Noise Fraction (MNF) bands, spectral indices and products derived from Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) data representing topography (developed in SAGA), or statistical products (developed in OPALS—Orientation and Processing of Airborne Laser Scanning). The image classifications were performed using a Random Forest (RF) algorithm and a multi-classification approach. As part of the research, the correlation analysis of the developed remote sensing products was carried out, and the Recursive Feature Elimination with Cross-Validation (RFE-CV) analysis was performed to select the most important RS sub-products and thus increase the efficiency and accuracy of developing the final habitat distribution maps. The classification results showed that alkaline fens are better identified in summer (mean F1-SCORE equals 0.950 in the UB area, and 0.935 in the LB area), transition mires and quaking bogs that evolved on/or in the vicinity of alkaline fens in summer and autumn (mean F1-SCORE equals 0.931 in summer, and 0.923 in autumn in the UB area), and transition mires and quaking bogs that evolved on dystrophic lakes in spring and summer (mean F1-SCORE equals 0.953 in spring, and 0.948 in summer in the JF area).

Heavy metal ions of automobile origin enter the soil, among other things, with the solid particles PM (particulate matter), on which they are adsorbed. In view of the increasing number of vehicles on our roads each year, it is extremely important to determine the risk of heavy metal emissions caused by communication nowadays. In the studies assessing the impact of vehicles on soil pollution with heavy metals much attention is given to urban areas but few works are dedicated to soil pollution in open (agricultural) and forest areas, while maintaining the lowest possible course of anthropogenic impact. In addition, these works apply various methods of soil sampling (different depths and distance from roads). It also happens that no soil samples are taken from the two levels, making it impossible to assess the degree of heavy metals enrichment. The aim of this study was to determine the soil pollution with heavy metals (Cd, Pb, Ni, Zn, Cu) in the drainage ditches along the communication routes in Roztocze National Park (RNP) and the Landscape Park Foothills (LPF). It shows the contents of the studied heavy metals and pH determination in soil samples taken from two levels (0-5 cm and 5-20 cm), which allowed to identify the anthropogenic origin. Six road sections selected on the basis of measuring similar traffic congestion on the routes were chosen. The content of the analyzed heavy metals elements in the soil samples tested, ranged as follows: cadmium <0,23-0,86 mg kg-1 a.d.m., lead 10,22-29,0 mg kg-1 a.d.m., nickel, 4,0-37.3 mg kg-1 a.d.m., Zn 40-256 mg kg-1 a.d.m., copper 4,0-23,0 mg kg-1 a.d.m. The obtained results revealed that cadmium, lead and copper in all analyzed soil samples did not exceed concentration limits in areas subject to environmental protection. However, nickel and zinc concentration slightly exceeded the limit. In addition, higher content of heavy metal elements discovered in the subsurface soil layer, taken from the depth of 0-5 cm, proves both their anthropogenic, automotive origin and the enrichment of soil. The overall decrease in heavy metal content with the depth in the soil profile and increase in traffic congestion indicate the relationship with the automotive environmental pollution. The role of drainage ditches as a barrier against further spread of dust produced during the operation of transport infrastructure turned out to be essential. Sealing and guttering of drainage ditches in the protected areas are necessary in order to protect the soil from excessive amounts of chemical contaminants.",,2309-2323,,1,15,,Rocz. Ochr.

It is expected that anthropogenic disturbances such as climate change and human activities will tend to create less energetically-efficient ecosystems that support less biomass per unit energy flow. It is debated, however, whether this expected development should translate into bottom-heavy (with small basal species being the most abundant) or top-heavy communities (where more biomass is supported at higher trophic levels with species having larger body sizes). Here, we combine ecological theory and empirical data to demonstrate that full marine protection promotes shifts towards top-heavy energetically-efficient structures in marine communities. First, we use metabolic scaling theory to show that protected communities are expected to display stronger top-heavy structures than disturbed communities. Similarly, we show theoretically that communities with high energy transfer efficiency display stronger top-heavy structures than communities with low transfer efficiency. Next, we use empirical structures observed within fully protected marine areas compared to disturbed areas that vary in stress from thermal events and adjacent human activity. Using a nonparametric causal-inference analysis, we find a strong, positive, causal effect between full marine protection and stronger top-heavy structures. Our work corroborates ecological theory on community development and provides a quantitative framework to study the potential restorative effects of different candidate strategies on protected areas. The sustainability of marine communities is critical for supporting many bio-physical processes, including human well-being. Human impacts, including land-based and ocean-based activities that modify, exploit, and pollute marine habitats, have been reported to alter species composition and biomass. Marine protected areas (MPAs) have been established for the conservation of target species, including the protection of economic resources and biodiversity. However, we know little about the cause-effect relationship between MPAs and community-wide properties of marine communities under climate change and anthropogenic disturbances. Yet, this knowledge is central to increase our understanding of the development and potential restoration of marine communities. Here, we combine big data, ecological theory, and nonparametric causal-inference analysis to provide key evidence of the cause-effect relationship between MPAs and the structure of fish communities. Specifically, we find that fully protected areas directly increase by the probability that fish communities display a stronger top-heavy structure relative to limits imposed by their environmental contexts, supporting more biomass per unit of energy flow. Because restoration and conservation efforts require interventions, it then becomes necessary to increase our understanding of cause-effect relationships between disturbance and community composition.",,,,12,19,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001153608100007,,,,,,,ABUNDANCE; BIODIVERSITY; BODY-SIZE; CAUSAL INFERENCE; CLIMATE-CHANGE; DYNAMICS; LIFE; PYRAMIDS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Adequately implemented protected areas (PAs) aim to promote conservation by increasing population size and reducing its variability. To resolve how these effects depend on PA features, I develop and analyze new models of stochastic processes that encompass the fluctuations generated by demographic or environmental stochasticity in PAs management. The stochastic model is built upon individual processes. In the model, density-independent mortality, migration between PAs and non-PAs, organism preference for PAs, and size characterize the features of the PA. The effect of PAs size is also examined. The long-term conservation effects are quantified using the coefficient of variation (CV) of population size in PAs, where a lower CV indicates higher robustness in stochastic variations. The results from this study demonstrate that sufficiently reduced density-independent mortality in PAs and high site preference for PAs and immigration rate into PAs are likely to decrease the CV. However, different types of stochasticity induce rather different consequences: under demographic stochasticity, the CV is always reduced because PAs increase the population size therein, but an increased population size by PAs does not always decrease the CV under environmental stochasticity. The deterministic dynamics of the model are investigated, facilitating effective management decisions. © Copyright © 2021 Takashina.",,,,,9,,Front. ecol. evol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Frontiers Media S.A.,,,,ecosystem management; marine protected areas; population fluctuation; protected areas; stochastic models,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Specifically, managers must decide how much to subdivide a given managed region: from implementing a uniform approach across the region to considering a unique approach in each of one hundred patches and everything in between. Spatially explicit approaches, such as the implementation of marine spatial planning and marine reserves, are increasingly used in fishery management. Using a spatially explicit bioeconomic model, we quantify how the management scale affects optimal fishery profit, biomass, fishery effort, and the fraction of habitat in marine reserves. We find that, if habitats are randomly distributed, the fishery profit increases almost linearly with the number of segments. However, if habitats are positively autocorrelated, then the fishery profit increases with diminishing returns. Therefore, the true optimum in management scale given cost to subdivision depends on the habitat distribution pattern. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,14-22,,,390,,J. Theor.

A large knowledge gap on diet and seasonal changes in forage availability limits the ability to develop informed local management plans for the African manatee in much of its range. This research took place in the Sanaga River Watershed, which includes two protected areas in the Littoral Region of Cameroon: the Douala-Edea National Park and the Lake Ossa Wildlife Reserve. We analyzed 113 manatee fecal samples and surveyed shoreline emergent and submerged vegetation within the Sanaga River Watershed. We used microhistological analyses to determine the relative contribution of each plant species to African manatee diets and compared across locations and across seasons (wet vs. dry season). We found that the shoreline vegetation is diverse with over 160 plant species, unevenly distributed across space and season, and dominated by emergent vegetation mostly represented by the antelope grass (Echinochloa pyramidalis). We recorded a total of 36 plant species from fecal samples with a spatial and temporal distribution mostly reflecting that of the corresponding shoreline vegetation. African manatees appear to be primarily opportunistically feeding on available vegetation across the seasons and habitat. This work documents the current, but changing, state of plant availability in the Sanaga River Watershed and reports the African manatee diet in Cameroon for the first time. This information can play a critical role in successfully managing the species and these protected areas. If we wish to protect the African manatee and the aquatic ecosystems within the Sanaga River Watershed, we must understand how forage availability changes over time, especially as its waters become nutrient enriched, eutrophic, and exposed to invasive species of plants in a changing world. © 2021 The Authors.

This paper reports on the dynamics of the coral community structure at A Ma Wan (AMW) and A Ye Wan (AYW) in Tung Ping Chau, Hong Kong, focusing on data collected before and after the summer typhoon seasons in 1997 to 1999. This period (1999) experienced the highest frequency of severe tropical cyclones to hit Hong Kong with one cyclone being the strongest to hit in the last 23 years (1984 to 2006). 2. This is part of a long-term monitoring programme of subtropical coral communities that has been set up in AMW since May 1997 and AYW since May 1998 with nine fixed position 40 m long transects and 0.5m × 0.5 m permanent quadrats laid at 5 m intervals along each transect. A total of 45 scleractinian coral species from 21 genera (12 families) was recorded, with 40 species in AMW and 32 species in AYW recorded at the beginning of the study. 3. Multidimensional scaling ordinations showed distinct spatial variations in the coral communities within and between sites. These variations were probably a result of the differential effects of the repeated cyclone impacts on the communities. Cyphastrea serailia, Goniopora lobata, Montipora peltiformis and Pavona decussata were the dominant species most strongly affected by cyclone impacts at AMW, experiencing a 6.2-16.2% loss of mean area cover during the study period. Some dominant species (e.g. P. decussata) in AYW also experienced a 6.5-14.3% loss of mean area cover within the same period. 4. Overall, these coral community structures appeared relatively stable and resistant to repeated physical disturbances. However, they may have low resilience towards more severe disturbances in the future. Preserving the resilience of coral communities/species in Tung Ping Chau should be one of the main goals of coral conservation strategies for the island.

Understanding the role of spatial patterns of compounded disturbances in determining invader establishment and spread can enhance the effectiveness of control strategies. Using the framework of 1/f noise models and by means of a field experiment, we evaluated how the simultaneous exposure of Posidonia oceanica meadows to disturbances (namely overgrazing and rhizome uprooting from vessel anchoring) differing in spatial extent and degree of autocorrelation influenced the establishment and spread of the invasive seaweed, Caulerpa racemosa. Effects on invader establishment and spread were evaluated by means of mixed-effect models relating spatial patterns of disturbance and presence or abundance of C. racemosa, quantified through spectral coefficients. The spatial distribution of C. racemosa mimicked that of overgrazing, both variables showing positive autocorrelation. Yet, C. racemosa was unable to disperse from disturbed patches into adjacent intact areas. The uprooting of rhizomes did not promote the establishment of C. racemosa, but magnified (?18 times) the proliferation of the exotic seaweed when coupled with overgrazing. Synthesis and applications. Fish overgrazing of Posidonia oceanica lessens the resistance of seagrass beds to invasion by Caulerpa racemosa. Thus, conservation strategies (e.g. marine protected areas) aiming to restore over-exploited fish populations may indirectly enhance the susceptibility of P. oceanica meadows to invasion by C. racemosa. Uprooting of P. oceanica rhizomes, such as that caused by boat anchoring, exacerbates the effects of overgrazing. The anchoring of recreational vessels should be, therefore, strictly regulated in areas characterized by intense grazing of P. oceanica leaves. More generally, our study shows that native herbivores may indirectly facilitate invasion by reducing the resistance of resident plant communities and suggests that sounded strategies for controlling the establishment and spread of invasive species require taking into account the interactive effects of natural and anthropogenic disturbances.

Passive acoustic monitoring enables the observation of dugongs’ vocal behaviour, which is one of the key components of their social behaviour, but the temporal and spatial scale of previous studies were limited. In this study, we aimed to examine where dugongs actively vocalised, using multiple underwater recorders that were deployed along the coastline of Talibong Island, Thailand, through one-month observation in both rainy and dry seasons. Dugong calls were automatically detected and false detections were subsequently removed by manual scrutiny.

Its successful experience is mainly reflected in five aspects. (1) The adoption of regional biodiversity conservation legislation and the promotion of compliance with the law by member countries to promote the construction of the protected area network. (2) The establishment of a decision-making and implementation mechanism that combines the EU resolution process and the participation of multiple subjects in the whole process, which enhances the scientificity of decision-making and the enthusiasm of all relevant subjects to participate.

This study used fishery survey data from southern Zhejiang coastal waters from 2016 to 2020, employing a maximum entropy model (MaxEnt) to map the habitat distribution of C. nasus. Model performance was evaluated using two metrics: the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve for the training and test sets and true skill statistics (TSS). This study aimed to predict the habitat distribution of C. nasus and explore how environmental variables influence habitat suitability. The results indicated that the models for each season had strong predictive performance, with AUC values above 0.8 and TSS values exceeding 0.6, indicating that they could accurately predict the presence of C. nasus. In the study area, C. nasus was primarily found in brackish or marine waters near bays and coastal islands. Among all environmental factors, salinity (S) and bottom temperature (BOT) had the highest correlations with habitat distribution, although these correlations varied across seasons. The findings of this study provide empirical evidence and a reference for the conservation and management of C. nasus and for the designation of its protected areas. © The Author(s) 2024.",,,,1,14,,Sci.

Since the first nature reserve, Dinghu Mountain in Guangdong, was set up in 1956, China has established nearly 10,000 PAs of various types and levels, with a total area of over 1.85 million km2, accounting for about 18.3% of its total land area. It has built a PA system with national parks as the mainstay, supported by nature reserves and supplemented by nature parks (including forest parks, geoparks, marine parks, wetland parks, etc.). After the establishment of the first nature reserve, China set up its first forest park in Zhangjiajie, Hunan Province, and a batch of national scenic areas, including Huangshan Mount in Anhui Province in 1982. In 1996, two national marine special reserves were established in the Miao Archipelago and Qinzhou Bay. The first batch of national geoparks, including the Stone Forest in Yunnan, were established in 2000. In 2005, the first national wetland park pilot was launched in Xixi, Zhejiang Province, and the first national marine park pilot projects were initiated in places like Hailuogang Island, Guangdong Province, in 2011. The first national desert park was established in Shapotou, Ningxia, in 2013, and the first batch of national grassland parks, including Eilechuan in Inner Mongolia, were initiated in 2020. National parks on a trial basis were launched in 2014, and in 2021, China officially designated its first group of national parks, including Three-River-Source National Park, Giant Panda National Park, Northeast China Tiger and Leopard National Park, Hainan Tropical Forests National Park, and Wuyishan National Park. Efforts have continued on key projects, such as the protection of natural forests and protection and restoration of wetlands. Various policies and measures to compensate for ecological conservation, such as compensation for public welfare forests and incentives and subsidies for grassland protection were introduced. These efforts have played a decisive role in biodiversity conservation in China and even in the world. However, on-site protection also faces issues such as a lack of systematic layout in PAs, the absence of an organic collaborative protection system among numerous PAs, and sharp conflicts between protection and development. To achieve the 30×30 target (by 2030, protect at least 30% of land and ocean areas) of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework and in accordance with the requirements of global and national biodiversity conservation strategies, the spatial pattern of biodiversity conservation needs systematic optimization. This requires national parks to cover approximately 10% of the land area, and the remaining PAs covering another 10% of the land. Additionally, the ecological protection red line, excluding the areas of PAs, should cover around 10% of the land area. Other Effective area-based Conservation Measures (OECMs) can further expand the areas of in-situ conservation by 10% to 20%. Optimize the spatial pattern of in-situ biodiversity conversation centered on a PA system with national parks as the mainstay, supplemented by OECMs, base on the ecological protection red line, and supported by key areas for the protection and restoration of important natural ecosystems, such as natural forests, grasslands, wetlands, deserts, and oceans.

To explore how establishing high seas ABMTs including MPAs via the BBNJ might work in practice, this paper selects the practice of OSPAR and NEAFC as an example of regional cooperation.

It then examines the challenges under a centralized global structure proposed in BBNJ negotiation, and proposes a practical global structure for cooperation and coordination. It suggests that a global decision-making body and their subordinates under the BBNJ may be empowered with different authorities under different scenarios. They may act as “cooperation initiator” and “conflict coordinator” of the ABMTs including MPAs where there is relevant IFBs, achieving objectives by coordinating with existing mechanisms; or act as “gap filler” by directly establishing and managing ABMTs including MPAs where there is no IFBs.

For this purpose, an intra-annual time-series of 30 Sentinel-2 images, embedding phenology information, were investigated for 2018. The methodology adopted was based on a two-stage workflow employing a Support Vector Machine classifier. In the first stage only four Sentinel-2 multi-season images were analyzed, to provide an updated land cover map from where the grassland layer was extracted. The layer obtained was then used for masking the input features to the second stage. The latter stage discriminated the four grassland habitats by analyzing several input features configurations. These included multiple spectral indices selected from the time-series and the Digital Terrain Model. The results obtained from the different input configurations selected were compared to evaluate if the phenology information from time-series could improve grassland habitats discrimination. The highest F1 values (95.25% and 80.27%) were achieved for 6210/E1.263 and 6220/E1.434, respectively, whereas the results remained stable (97,33%) for 62A0/E1.55 and quite low (75,97%) for X/E1.61-E1.C2-E1.C4.

Few studies, however, have explored the effects of MPAs on the demographic profiles of reef fish populations. We tested the assumption that areas closed to fishing for >7 yr accumulate older individuals of a heavily targeted species, Lethrinus harak. Our survey design included 2 protected sites and 2 comparative fished sites. Using an age-based lengthconversion method, a novel approach in tropical fisheries, otolith-derived demographic information was supplemented with underwater visual census data. This approach provided valuable insights into the population dynamics of this species at small spatial scales (<;2 km2). We found considerable site-specific differences in the age structure of L. harak, with protected sites having greater mean ages and lower total mortality. There was indication of density-dependent growth as greater size-atage occurred in fished sites where biomass had been depleted. Although female L. harak reach 50% maturity at 208 mm fork length (FL) or age 3.8 yr, it is the largest and oldest females (>260 mm FL and >9 yr) who make a disproportionate contribution to overall reproductive output, as ovary weight increases exponentially with both length and age. Currently size (Lc) and age (tc) at first capture is ?100 mm and 2 yr below the size (L50) and age (t50) at first maturity. Numerous management scenarios based on minimum size limits were evaluated to determine which scenario would increase spawning biomass without compromising yield estimates. Our results demonstrate that effective implementation of MPAs allows a larger and older population to accrue, thus yielding considerable reproductive benefits.

Averting this disaster requires maintaining a sufficient spawning population to buffer stochastic fluctuations in recruitment of heavily harvested stocks. Optimal strategies for managing spawner biomass are well developed for temperate systems, yet remain uncertain for tropical fisheries, where the danger of collapse from recruitment overfishing looms largest. In this study, we explored empirically and through modeling, the role of marine reserves in maximizing spawner biomass of a heavily exploited reef fish, Lethrinus harak around Guam, Micronesia. On average, spawner biomass was 16 times higher inside the reserves compared with adjacent fished sites. Adult density and habitat-specific mean fish size were also significantly greater. We used these data in an age-structured population model to explore the effect of several management scenarios on L. harak demography. Under minimum-size limits, unlimited extraction and all rotational-closure scenarios, the model predicts that preferential mortality of larger and older fish prompt dramatic declines in spawner biomass and the proportion of male fish, as well as considerable declines in total abundance. For rotational closures this occurred because of the mismatch between the scales of recovery and extraction.

Various methods for prioritizing conservation areas exist, yet alternative methods may direct managers to different lands for protection, and thus varying recommendations for meeting area-based targets. Here, we used bird species distribution models and landcover projections to systematically evaluate two widely used methods for prioritizing areas most likely to facilitate the persistence of multiple species under climate change: 1) in situ macrorefugia, identified as areas of high predicted species retention; and 2) complementarity-based optimizations, identified using the Zonation conservation planning software. For 17 biogeographical groups in the continental United States, we compared priority areas for bird conservation derived from these two alternatives with respect to their spatial distributions and consensus (i.e. overlap), expected conservation outcomes (e.g. species and functional diversity), predicted climate change exposure, habitat characteristics, landscape configurations and degree of formal protection. Spatial distributions of priority areas differed by biogeographical group and method, with 40.5% consensus on average across groups. Consensus was extensive within mountainous and coastal regions, and limited at high latitudes (e.g. Alaska) and in flat, interior regions (e.g. grasslands). As expected, complementarity-based optimizations more efficiently represented species than retention-based in situ macrorefugia, especially for forest groups, and had greater overall biodiversity value and better habitat condition. Conversely, in situ macrorefugia encompassed higher elevations and larger contiguous patches and were expected to experience less winter-season warming. Formal protection averaged < 50% across biogeographical groups, regardless of prioritization method. Our findings illustrate the value of complementarity-based optimizations for bird conservation under climate change. More broadly, comparing approaches for prioritizing areas for long-term species persistence can reveal critical trade-offs in recommendations for climate-informed protected area planning. © 2022 The Authors.

Gathering deep-sea data using conventional techniques can be expensive and time-consuming. One way to provide a relatively rapid assessment of VME presence is to use data from fisheries by-catch and historical scientific observations. Our aim was to predict suitable habitat for octocorals around South Georgia and to estimate the extent to which octocoral habitat is currently protected by fisheries management measures. In addition, we attempted to determine the types of terrain in which octocorals and fishing activities occur. Location: South Georgia, sub-Antarctic. Methods: A terrain map of South Georgia was created using Benthic Terrain Modeler (BTM). Georeferenced octocoral data were combined with environmental layers to create an octocoral habitat suitability map using ecological niche factor analysis (ENFA). Results: Most octocoral by-catch samples originated from narrow crest (an area representing shelf break and moraines) and steep (continental) slope terrains. Calcite saturation state and apparent oxygen utilization (AOU) were the most influential environmental parameters in determining highly suitable octocoral habitat. The ENFA model highlighted shelf-break areas to be highly suitable habitat for octocorals and that 38% of this habitat around South Georgia lies within areas currently protected by fisheries management; a further 20% is below the 2000-m fishing depth, meaning effectively that 58% of predicted highly suitable octocoral habitat is currently protected. Although these results indicate protection levels for octocoral habitat well above international standards/targets, the fishery remains active within a relatively concentrated shelf area at 700-2000 m, potentially having a large impact on the 42% of highly suitable octocoral habitat predicted to lie at these depths. Main conclusions: This research demonstrates the potential for using fisheries by-catch data to create habitat suitability maps that can inform fisheries management and future research. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,1688-1701,,9,40,,J.

Often this latter deliverable is difficult as the protected areas are small and the communities outside are large, as was the case with Abe Bailey nature reserve, situated in a peri-urban setting outside Carletonville's (Gauteng Province, South Africa) largest township, Khutsong. Rapid Rural Appraisal workshops were held in 2000 with community groups in Khutsong (youth, aged, shack dwellers, home based care, traditional healers) to determine their needs in relation to the nature reserve. A social survey was also undertaken to fully understand the dynamics of the Khutsong community as the relationship between community and nature reserve had previously been hostile. The output was an outreach programme that included establishing a buffer-zone between Khutsong and nature reserve; a system of vegetable garden allotments set up along the boundary of the park and township; a medicinal plant cultivation project; and a donor-funded medicinal plant 'rescue' scheme with greenhouse tunnels set up in the nature reserve. Between 2003 and 2008, disaster struck Khutsong in the form of the border demarcation protests resulting in substantial violence and damage to property in the area. This violence stalled all the Abe Bailey community projects. Substantial investment would be needed to activate these projects again. This situation indicates the struggle that protected areas on the border of large urban settlements face with service delivery protests a feature of the South African urban landscape at present.

All three are listed under the European Habitat and Species Directive (92/43/EEC) and are indicator species under the fish biological element of the Water Framework Directive. There are a number of Natura 2000 sites under which they are afforded protection. Under their aim of conserving habitats and species, the Special Area of Conservation (SAC) site designations require the assessment of consents which may present a risk to lamprey populations and actions to protect them. For many rivers and tidal waters intake screening is required for both migratory life stages; transformers and adults. Lamprey lack both a swimbladder and otolith organs and as such fall within the non-specialist hearing group suggesting that neither low frequency nor ultrasound acoustic deterrents would be effective behavioural deterrents for their protection. There is some evidence however, to suggest that lamprey may be sensitive to infrasound although the use of such a behavioural deterrent is unproven at this time. Bubble screens have been proven to be ineffective for these species and although lights are considered to have potential they are not a tried and tested behavioural screening technology for these species. Intake screening for lamprey is therefore currently restricted to physical exclusion. Physical screening at the intake frontage requires fine mesh screens with low approach velocities which can often be an impractical retro-fit solution for many existing intakes. Lamprey do not have the vulnerable structures of teleosts such as scales, a bony skeleton, operculum, large eyes or a swimbladder which make them a hardy species which do not appear to exhibit significant handling stress. Entrainment and mark-recapture studies show that they exhibit high retention and survival rates on travelling band screens. In combination with the use of life cycle models to determine population estimates, the use of fish handling and return systems can be considered a suitable technology for their protection at potable water intakes.",,101-110,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000464893500009,,,,,,,entrainment/impingement; FISH; fish handling; Habitats Directive; intake screening; lamprey; return systems; River Dee SAC; River Derwent SAC; STRESS; survival; Water Framework Directive,,"Turnpenny, AWH; Horsfield, A",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,INTERNATIONAL FISH SCREENING TECHNIQUES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, in some situations, concomitant changes in the abundance of predators, competitors, or prey within MPAs, or strong gradients in the surrounding environmental seascape may counteract the purported benefits making it more difficult to predict how species will respond to protection. We used a network of MPAs in California, spanning a large temperature gradient, to investigate the drivers of demographic variability in the commercially important red sea urchin Mesocentrotus franciscanus. We investigated how demographic metrics varied geographically in response to protection, temperature, and the main sea urchin resource, the giant kelp Macrocystis pyrifera. We found significant conservation benefits to this fished sea urchin within MPAs designated six years prior to the beginning of this study. Within MPAs, red sea urchins were generally larger resulting in greater adult biomass density and reproductive biomass density. In addition, kelp density was an important explanatory variable of all red sea urchin demographic traits examined (adult size, gonadosomatic index [GSI], density, adult biomass density, and reproductive biomass density). Kelp density was positively correlated with red sea urchin GSI and adult size, but the relationships with density, adult biomass density, and reproductive biomass density were complex and the directionality changed depending on the region (or environmental setting) examined. Our results demonstrate that kelp, red sea urchin reproduction, and the effects of spatial management on demographic processes are tightly coupled with the oceanographic regime. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,488-498,,,209,,Biol.

Such a requirement is especially challenging in areas where there is no clearly defined jurisdiction. However, in these areas, assigning sovereignty and rights can be achieved through bilateral or multilateral agreements, or with the use of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) tools such as mediation and arbitration. In some cases, states may engage in transboundary marine conservation initiatives to provide an entry point to enable wider collaboration. These processes can also evolve into a form of ‘environmental peacebuilding’ while ideally maintaining ecosystem functioning and resilience as a core goal. Conversely, MPAs and OECMs can also be used to assert maritime sovereignty rights over disputed waters, under the pretext of conserving marine habitats. This paper identifies emerging issues of conflict resolution and their interaction with transboundary marine conservation. While ADR focuses on negotiations and facilitated processes between state representatives (“track one diplomacy”), we also discuss other forms and levels of marine environmental peacebuilding and dispute resolution, particularly those between civil society organizations (“track two diplomacy”). The six case studies presented highlight areas of recent maritime conflict or border disputes in the Mediterranean Sea, the Red Sea, the West Indian Ocean, the Korean West Sea and the South China Sea. In all cases, high ecological value, vulnerable ecosystems, and the need to conserve ecosystem services provide a shared interest for cooperation despite on-going diplomatic difficulties. The strategies used in these cases are analyzed to determine what lessons might be learned from cross-border collaborative marine initiatives in situations of territorial dispute. The use of ADR tools and their ability to support joint marine initiatives are examined, as well as how such initiatives contribute to formal border negotiations. Other forms of inter-state dialogue and cooperation between local or civil organizations, circumventing formal treaties and negotiations between state leaders (‘track two’) are also investigated. Finally, other influencing factors, including third-party involvement, stakeholder interests, power dynamics, economic context, and socio-cultural aspects, are considered. © Copyright © 2020 Teff-Seker, Mackelworth, Vega Fernández, McManus, Nam, Tuda and Holcer.",,,,,7,,Front.

Forecasting the phenology of fish migration is thus critically important to implement management actions aimed at protecting fish during their migration. In this study, an 11-year monitoring survey of Atlantic salmon smolts (Salmo salar) from the Ourthe River, Belgium, was analysed within a European Special Area of Conservation to improve the understanding of environment-induced spring migration. A logistic model was fitted to forecast smolt migration and to calculate phenological indicators for management, i.e. the onset, end, and duration of migration, while accounting for the influence of photoperiod, water temperature, and hydrological conditions. The results indicated that the photo-thermal units accumulated by smolts above a 7°C temperature threshold was a relevant proxy to reflect the synergistic effect between temperature and photoperiod on smolt migration. After integrating the effect of river flow pulses, the model accurately explained the inter-annual changes in migration timing (R2 = 0.95). The model predictions provide decisive management information to identify sensitive periods during which mitigation measures (e.g. hydropower turbine shutdown, river discharge management) should be conducted to promote smolt survival. The model was used to predict phenological characteristics under future scenarios of climate change. The results suggest a joint effect of hydrological alterations and water warming. Temperature increases of 1–4°C were associated with earlier initiation of migration, 6–51 days earlier, and spring flood events greatly influenced the duration of the migration period. Accordingly, the combined effects of human-induced modifications of the hydrological regimes and increasing temperatures could result in a mismatch between the smolt and favourable survival conditions in the marine environment. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,1552-1565,,8,30,,Aquatic Conserv.

In previous decades, Bolivian forests have mainly been deforested by the expansion of agricultural frontier development, driven by the growing demands for beef and other productions. In the mid-2000s the Movimiento al Socialismo (MAS) party rose to power in Bolivia with the promise of promoting an alternative development model that would respect the environment. The party passed the world's first laws granting rights to the environment, which they termed Mother Earth (Law No. 300 of 2012), and proposed an innovative framework that was expected to develop radical new conservation policies. The MAS conservationist discourse, policies, and productive practices, however, have since been in permanent tension. The government continues to guarantee food production through neo-extractivist methods by promoting the notion to expand agriculture from 3 to 13. million. ha, risking the tropical forests and their ecosystem services. These actions raise major environmental and social concerns, as the potential impacts of such interventions are still unknown. The objective of this study is to explore an innovative land use modeling approach to simulate how the growing demand for land could affect future deforestation trends in Bolivia. We use the LuccME framework to create a spatially-explicit land cover change model and run it under three different deforestation scenarios, spanning from the present-2050. In the Sustainability scenario, deforestation reaches 17,703,786. ha, notably in previously deforested or degraded areas, while leaving forest extensions intact. In the Middle of the road scenario, deforestation and degradation move toward new or paved roads spreading across 25,698,327. ha in 2050, while intact forests are located in Protected Areas (PAs). In the Fragmentation scenario, deforestation expands to almost all Bolivian lowlands reaching 37,944,434. ha and leaves small forest patches in a few PAs. These deforestation scenarios are not meant to predict the future but to show how current and future decisions carried out by the neo-extractivist practices of MAS government could affect deforestation and carbon emission trends. In this perspective, recognizing land use systems as open and dynamic systems is a central challenge in designing efficient land use policies and managing a transition towards sustainable land use. © 2015 Elsevier Inc.",,49-63,,,144,,Environ.

The integrated approach for both theoretical elements has not easily been improved, despite the increase in analytical frameworks in this theme. The Paranaguá Bay Zone (PBZ) in the state of Paraná, Brazil, is composed of a few cities, several large, protected areas, and traditional communities. On the one hand, the intensification of real estate pressures in a low demographic region is creating a wave of value conversion regarding the trends of the coastal gentrification phenomenon, notwithstanding the lower degree of intensity when compared to other Brazilian estuaries. On the other hand, it shows a lack of political representation and institutional action at the subnational level. This asymmetrical process is strongly related to historical land development and the controversial process of implementing protected areas and zoning tools. Promoting the economic rise of the territory has affected traditional communities and conservation management, requiring permanent improvement in the ability for community mobilization and juridical vigilance in the face of impacts related to such pressure. In the meantime, scholars have considered knowledge building, which brings up assessment issues on how the decision-making process has been operated and what gaps and asymmetries can be revealed for further resilience analyses. This study is an effort to approach the performance of participative governance of the estuary and is restricted to a preliminary assessment of the participative management committees designed by legislation under area-based attributions. This study is not aimed at exploring the belief systems of different social groups/stakeholders. Results have a great emphasis on methodological building and testing, which revealed the importance of imposing an inventory and hierarchy model on the multiple committees of governance and their sectorization across adjacent areas. Results also underline variables of interest and pilot indicators in the subject under analysis. Preliminary results point to the need for overcoming methodological challenges, and findings that are useful as first evidence in the comprehension of the low performance by different committees, which often operate without any regular, systematic, integrated, transparent, legitimate, and permanent agenda of Policy activities for the PBZ fisheries territory. Qualitative data and institutional memoirs should be available and categorized in government programs, whereas research efforts that look to better recognize the idiosyncrasies of community realities under the pressures of non-transparent economic drivers are much needed. © 2024 The authors.",,,,,72,,Ocean Coast.

However, the removal capacity of constructed marshes is potentially affected by several site-specific and design factors, such as marsh platform elevation, slope, sediment type, initial planting density and wave climate. Here, the main and interactive effects of these factors on the capacity of constructed marshes to remove nitrate from runoff was explored in field experiments at sites protected from and exposed to waves. At both sites, three experimental blocks were established, each with 24 treatment combinations of factors in experimental flumes: two platform elevations (high and low), two slopes (steep and shallow), two sediment types (coarse and fine grain), and three initial planting densities (0%, 50% and 100% cover). Nutrient rich (KNO3) groundwater solution was fed through the marsh rhizosphere using subsurface diffusers. The relative effects of treatment combinations were then assessed by analyzing porewater NOx concentrations with ANOVA models. None of the treatment combinations had any observable effect on porewater NOx concentrations at the exposed site. However, both sediment type and planting density were significant main effects at the protected site with the lowest NOx concentrations found in flumes with fine sediments and initially planted. These results confirm that design factors can have large implications on nutrient dynamics of constructed marshes in areas protected from waves and that wave energy can substantially reduce the influence of these design factors. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,549-564,,4,29,,Wetlands Ecol.

Location: Antarctica and the sub-Antarctic. Methods: We reviewed and summarized published biogeographic studies of the Antarctic. We then developed a biogeographic classification for terrestrial conservation planning in Antarctica by combining the most comprehensive source of Antarctic biodiversity data available with three spatial frameworks: (1) a 200-km grid, (2) a set of areas based on physical parameters known as the environmental domains of Antarctica and (3) expert-defined bioregions. We used these frameworks, or combinations thereof, together with multivariate techniques to identify biologically distinct areas. Results: Early studies of continental Antarctica typically described broad bioregions, with the Antarctic Peninsula usually identified as biologically distinct from continental Antarctica; later studies suggested a more complex biogeography. Increasing complexity also characterizes the sub-Antarctic and marine realms, with differences among studies often attributable to the focal taxa. Using the most comprehensive terrestrial data available and by combining the groups formed by the environmental domains and expert-defined bioregions, we were able to identify 15 biologically distinct, ice-free, Antarctic Conservation Biogeographic Regions (ACBRs), encompassing the continent and close lying islands. Main conclusions: Ice-free terrestrial Antarctica comprises several distinct bioregions that are not fully represented in the current Antarctic Specially Protected Area network. Biosecurity measures between these ACBRs should also be developed to prevent biotic homogenization in the region. © 2012 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,726-741,,7,18,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Antarctic biodiversity; Antarctica; biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; biogeographical zones; Biogeographical zones; biogeography; biome; BOTHROMETOPUS-HUNTLEYI; CLIMATE-CHANGE; conservation planning; Conservation planning; DISPERSAL; ECOLOGICAL BIOGEOGRAPHY; GENETIC DIVERSITY; HISTORY; homogeneity; ice free corridor; ice-free Antarctica; Ice-free Antarctica; NEW-ZEALAND; protected area; SOUTHERN-OCEAN ISLANDS; spatial analysis; spatial ecology; Spatial ecology; sub-Antarctic biogeography; Sub-Antarctic biogeography; subantarctic region; TERRESTRIAL,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Several initiatives are presently underway in international waters to establish large-scale MPAs, such as for the Southern Ocean under the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR). By reviewing the MPA initiative in the Weddell Sea (WSMPA), we aim to guide through the planning steps involved in developing an MPA in the high seas of the Southern Ocean in the context of an international organisation, i.e. CCAMLR. We focus also on the associated science-policy discussion process. To this end, we examine the WSMPA roadmap retrospectively from its beginning in 2013 until today. We discuss the individual planning steps and how these have been designed in detail. Throughout, we show that the planning of the WSMPA was based on a collaborative, science-based process that exemplified best practice in applied science. Lastly, we also provide an outlook on the current situation regarding the establishment of CCAMLR MPAs and point out that scientific best practice may not be sufficient to achieve the consensus and political drive ultimately required for the designation of MPAs in the Southern Ocean. © 2020 The Authors",,,,,124,,Mar.

Policy and science agree that a global network of marine protected areas (MPAs) will mitigate these effects. Conservation planners face the dual challenge of planning MPAs based on complex scientific information and supporting the decision-making process through clear and transparent communication with the involved stakeholders. To this end, visual comparisons of different mapped reserve configurations are a commonly used approach, while analytical approaches that assess the efficiency of different planning scenarios and trade-offs among them are still rarely used in practice. Here, we use uni- and multivariate statistics to compare reserve configurations used in the process of designing a Weddell Sea MPA (WSMPA) in Antarctica. We show that different target level settings (low, medium, mixed) for conservation features affect the configuration of the solutions significantly. The mixed-target scenario was one of the most flexible ones in that it produced the most diverse set of solutions, providing several options for consideration. At the same time, it was also the most well balanced scenario, finding relatively cost-efficient solutions while selecting an intermediate number of planning units that were most spatially clustered. Our study complements the qualitative sensitivity analysis carried out previously (mainly visual, descriptive scenario comparisons) and will hopefully further advance the WSMPA development process under CCAMLR. Furthermore, this paper adds to the growing literature advocating the application of multivariate statistics for further thorough and systematic evaluation procedures in conservation planning. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,38,,Glob.

Samplings were conducted in the vicinity of the marine protected area (MPA) Cerbčre-Banyuls (northwestern Mediterranean Sea). Four sites, with different levels of protection, were sampled 4 times, at depths of 5 and 10 m, to study abundance, species richness, structure of fish assemblages and fish aggregation. Results obtained by DOV and UVC provided evidence of significant effects of protection on abundance, species richness and fish assemblages. However, detection of weaker reserve effects using DOV may be limited. Furthermore, certain species are difficult to identify by video (e.g. Symphodus spp.), but DOV may be useful when studying a target and/or easily identifiable species. Contrary to UVC, DOV data can be archived and used for further study. Results concerning fish aggregation within fish assemblages showed specific patterns. Sites outside the MPA were mainly characterized by the absence of fish or few fish aggregations, and sites inside were characterized by high fish density (i.e. dispersed or patched aggregations). Thus, the fish aggregation parameter measured using DOV is an interesting metric to quantify reserve effect. Consequently, although this technique is time-consuming to produce results, DOV presents great potential for estimating MPA effectiveness while allowing simultaneous work on several sites to limit temporal bias. © Inter-Research 2013.",,229-241,,3,18,,Aqua.

IMMAs identify discrete portions of habitat that are important for one or more marine mammal species, and that have the potential to be delineated and managed for conservation. They are identified by scientific experts during regional workshops, on the basis of satisfying one or more of eight criteria that capture critical aspects of marine mammal biology, ecology and population structure. Candidate IMMAs undergo independent scientific review prior to being accepted, and then are publicly available via a searchable and downloadable database and a dedicated online e-Atlas. Between 2016 and 2021, eight expert workshops - engaging more than 300 experts - have resulted in the identification of 173 IMMAs located in 90 countries or territories, across a third of the globe. IMMAs identified to date provide important habitats for 58 of the 131 recognized marine mammal species. Around two-thirds of all IMMAs (65%) were identified on the basis of important habitat for a marine mammal species that is threatened on the IUCN Red List. Approximately 61% of IMMA surface areas occur within Exclusive Economic Zone waters, while 39% fall within areas beyond national jurisdiction. The Task Force undertook implementation planning exercises for IMMAs in Palau (Micronesia), the Andaman Islands (India) and the Bazaruto Archipelago and Inhambane Bay (Mozambique), engaging with a range of stakeholders including government and management bodies. IMMAs are increasingly being utilized in environmental impact assessments, marine planning exercises and in international, national and supra-regional conservation, policy and management initiatives, including the Convention on Migratory Species and Convention on Biological Diversity, as well as the design and management of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) and the extension of MPA networks. The Task Force is working toward completing a global network of IMMAs that will contribute the scientific information needed to fulfill the current collective goal of protecting 30% of the ocean by 2030.

We evaluated the responses of fish populations to protection from fishing in reserves by comparing densities and sizes inside and outside of five no-take reserves in southern California, USA. Our results are robust because we compared responses across multiple rocky-reef reserves in two different years and controlled for possible site differences by (a) ensuring that habitat characteristics were the same inside and outside reserves, and (b) sampling species that are not targeted, which would not be expected to have a direct response to fishing. We compared fish density and size and calculated biomass and egg production across all five sites. Fishes targeted by recreational and/or commercial fisheries consistently exhibited increases in mean density (150%), size (30%), biomass (440%), and egg production (730%) inside reserves. Reserve effects were greatest for legal-sized targeted fishes: significantly greater densities were found exclusively inside reserves for targeted species (580%), the largest size classes existed only inside reserves, and mean biomass was 1000% higher. These responses were unlikely to have been caused by habitat differences because there were no significant differences in habitat characteristics between reserve and control locations. Densities of non-targeted species did not differ between reserve and non-reserve locations, further supporting the conclusions that differences in targeted species between reserve and control locations were due to harvesting rather than site-specific effects. Although MPAs cannot replace traditional fisheries management, the concentration of increased biomass and egg production is a unique MPA benefit that serves both reserves and fisheries. Scientifically rigorous studies that include multiple reserves, such as this study, are needed to inform management and policy decisions. © 2007 by the Ecological Society of America.",,2251-2267,,8,17,,Ecol.

To do so, records of fire occurrence provided by Klabin, as well as IAPAR meteorological data for the period were analyzed. The results showed that in the period of 1965 to 2009, there were 2,313 occurrences that affected 6,197 ha, with a reduction of the affected area over the period. The months of July, August and September presented the highest number of occurrence, totaling 1,183 (51.2%) fires. The events were uniformly distributed throughout the week, concentrated from 11 to 18 hours (72.8% of total). The main causes of fires were arson (54.2%), followed by cleaning burns (16.2%).

We examined changes in populations of an ecologically representative suite of focal species, including ones important to local small-scale fisheries, over a 7 yr period using both independent visual surveys and fisheries-dependent data. Most small-scale fisheries targets showed increases in density, biomass, or size within the replenishment zone and stable or increasing catch rates beyond replenishment zone boundaries. Lower trophic level, high recruiting species of more limited movement such as parrotfish, conch, and lobster appeared to respond most clearly to protection, while higher trophic level, late maturing, and more widely dispersing snappers and groupers generally displayed more limited recovery. Patterns of mid-trophic level hogfish and queen triggerfish appeared to be linked to the availability of appropriate prey, i.e. conch and urchins respectively, with increasing angelfish catch per unit effort appearing to replace large parrotfish since the ban on harvesting herbivorous fish in 2009. Patterns of triggerfish and angelfish may also be linked to benthic cover, given their preferences for urchins and sponges, respectively. These results address the core management objectives for Glover's Reef Marine Reserve, Belize, to ensure sustainability of its resources and enhance economic benefits from fisheries. Our study highlights the importance of using other fisheries conservation strategies (size limits, closed seasons) in conjunction with replenishment zones, as well as direct consultation with resource users in order to maximize benefits. © Inter-Research 2017.",,37-56,,,580,,Mar.

This study presents new information on more than 150 fish species that constitute the bulk of small-scale fishery landings in Belize and on the Pacific coast of Guatemala to provide guidance for improved biodiversity conservation and fisheries management. This includes a number of species listed as threatened on the IUCN Red List and Appendix II of CITES. Simple, length-based approaches and thresholds of size at maturity show that many of the elasmobranch and bony fish species examined have many immature individuals landed (Belize 51%, Guatemala 77%) across several gears. In both countries, maximum size is negatively correlated with the intensity of overfishing for several common metrics: proportions of mature, optimal sized and mega-spawners. The disproportionate removal of the largest species first will have cascading effects on biodiversity, community structure and species interactions, as well as livelihood opportunities and food security for fishing communities. Status indicators, such as fishing mortality rate relative to natural mortality rate and estimates of depletion based on lengths are sensitive to the assumed values of life history parameters, indicating the importance of improved data on growth, maturity and mortality for these populations. Our study emphasizes the use of a combination of fisheries conservation strategies, including size and effort controls, in conjunction with the closed area concept (i.e. marine protected areas) and meaningful consultation with resource users in order to maximize benefits for nature and people. © 2022 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,1372-1392,,8,32,,Aquatic Conserv.

Accurate, detailed information on the dynamics of land use change is essential for implementing management and conservation plans relevant to the current and future situations in any region. Our objective was to identify the recent dynamics of spatio-temporal changes in land use and vegetation cover within the RBLT, with a high degree of accuracy. Three satellite images (2006, 2011 and 2016) were evaluated by manual photointerpretation at a fixed scale of 1:5,000. From 2006 to 2016, the deforestation rate was 0.8% per year, and the most deforested category was forested riparian belts (~ 1,300 ha). Close to 550 ha of grasslands were converted into crop-fields, suggesting a change in economic activity in parts of the reserve's buffer zone. Given the ecological importance of the riparian belts as elements that connect the landscape, their protection is particularly urgent in the buffer zone.

Objectives: To identify and assess at the landscape-scale the location of spring and early season maternity roosts of female northern long-eared bats (Myotis septentrionalis) from 2015 to 2016 at Mammoth Cave National Park (MACA), Kentucky, USA. Methods: We used mist-nets and radiotelemetry to catch and track bats to roost trees across the landscape of MACA. Data on roosting sites were evaluated using spatial point pattern analysis to examine distributional trends of roosts. A variety of spatial covariates were used to model the effect of landscape pattern, including: forest type, elevation, and proximity to hibernacula, water, and road corridors. Results: Data indicate that roost locations of female northern long-eared bats in MACA were typically situated within 2000 m of known winter hibernacula, occurring more often at higher elevations in mesic upland deciduous forests, and in close proximity to water sources and roads. We present hypotheses to account for the patterns observed in relation to landscape features and habitat resources in the Park. Conclusions: Our data indicate that a more comprehensive understanding of habitat requirements which includes empirically-based, landscape-scale patterns, and not solely considerations at stand or local levels, could lead to better informed management policies targeting conservation of maternity habitat of forest-dwelling bats, including the northern long-eared bat, a species in decline throughout much of its distribution in North America. © 2018, The Author(s).",,1103-1115,,7,33,,Landsc.

When supplemented in feed, the developed strain should offer specific viral disease resistance and still remain other beneficial effects on shrimp health against other bacterial pathogens. The pWH1520 expression vector was constructed to encode hairpin RNA targeting shrimp yellow head virus (YHV) in L. plantarum. The quantity of YHV-specific dsRNA (dsYHV) was approximately 1.66 ± 0.25 ng from 7 × 1011 CFU of L. plantarum. Feeding shrimp with the probiotic expressing dsYHV (at 1011 CFU g?1 feed) for 5 days prior to YHV challenge provided shrimp partial protection against YHV. In vitro agar well diffusion analysis revealed that both wild-type and transformed L. plantarum inhibited growth of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, the shrimp pathogen responsible for acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) and early mortality syndrome (EMS). When tested in shrimp by immersion method, both L. plantarum strains (at 107 CFUs ml?1 seawater) also provided shrimp protection against V. parahaemolyticus. In conclusion, this study suggested the potential of the dsRNA-expressed L. plantarum for promoting shrimp health against the pathogenic virus. In addition, engineering L. plantarum for dsRNA production did not alter the probiotic’s intrinsic antibacterial property, and therefore, the developed strain can be used to protect shrimp against the important bacterial pathogen, V. parahaemolyticus causing AHPND/EMS. © 2017, Springer International Publishing Switzerland.",,1679-1692,,5,25,,Aquac.

However, recent studies show the need for a more thorough understanding of how conservation activities impact on and are affected by socio-economic development. Method: We built this systematic review on a systematic map by Eales et al. [14] adding studies from further academic database and grey literature searches specifically designed for this systematic review. Because studies were not sufficiently homogeneous in their outcomes to warrant a valid meta-analysis, we used narrative synthesis to explore the studies’ findings. Results: We assessed 10,053 titles and abstracts from database searches and Google Scholar. 343 articles were screened at full text and 16 studies were included in our review. Of the 16 studies, 3 were assessed as having overall high validity, 8 having moderate validity and 3 having low validity of evidence. 2 studies did not provide sufficient information for validity categorisation (unclear validity). Effects on economic living standards, reported in 11 studies, were in both desired and undesired directions, though most high validity studies reported no significant difference, and most others did not test for significance. Most studies reported that BR interventions were associated with positive impacts on material living standards. In general, studies reported good relations between local people and local enforcement/government following interventions in BRs. BR interventions may both reduce or cause social conflict, though the higher validity studies showed results in the desired direction. In one study, there was a positive impact on population family planning outcomes, when a reproductive health intervention was implemented with conservation efforts. There was no clear impact in either direction regarding education. Across two studies the overall message is positive for the subjective wellbeing of local people. Conclusions: With 727 BRs worldwide, the BR model has been accepted and developed as an approach to facilitate the implementation of the UN's SDGs. However, our work shows that interventions implemented in UNESCO BRs can bring about impacts in quite diverse ways: positive, negative, unchanged, and may often present both positive and negative impacts in the same situation. This reconfirms that the expected win–win outcomes of UNESCO BR model in terms of biodiversity and socio-economic development should be more carefully considered. We suggest some main points for consideration, particularly when developing management mechanisms for UNESCO biosphere reserves and/or managing activities in biosphere reserves. We also highlight the need for further research to explore the socio-economic impacts of the UNESCO biosphere reserves in Southeast Asia, especially on the domains of freedom of choice and action, security and safety, and culture and spirituality. Moreover, it is vital to have research projects that measure long-term impacts of biosphere reserves, which have been lacking in previous work. Finally, the potential impact of external factors should be considered in programme and monitoring design. © 2023, The Author(s).",,,,1,12,,Environ.

A key pre-requisite of MSE involves turning broad conceptual objectives into quantifiable and measurable operational objectives, against which the performance of management strategies can be assessed in simulations. However, given the large uncertainty typical of many renewable resource management problems and the potential diversity of stakeholder interests and needs, specification of operational management objectives for MSE often proves a challenge. In this article, a new approach to the evaluation of multidimensional outputs from MSE modeling, taking into account uncertainty regarding the reference levels of performance indicators (PIs) is proposed. The approach uses the notion of viable management strategies, as defined in recent applications of viable control to marine social-ecological systems, to examine the way in which simulated operational management objectives can be set. In this context, ""viable"" management strategies are defined as those which allow reference levels for candidate Pis to be met at some pre-agreed levels of tolerance, and we consider the possibility for these reference levels to be uncertain. The approach is applied to the multidimensional set of results from an MSE study conducted on recreational fishing for spangled emperor (Lethrinus nebulosus) in the Ningaloo Marine Park of Western Australia. The analysis shows how the complexities in management arrangements on recreational fishing, combining spatial management restrictions on fishing as well as conventional fisheries management regulations, which the MSE model accounted for in a multidimensional set of simulation results, can be synthesized using viability analysis. Results point to the existence of management options which provide greater ""room to move"", in setting reference and tolerance levels, for the range of objectives identified by stakeholders. Beyond the application to Ningaloo Reef, the approach could be transferrable to any other simulation-based outcomes of MSE for natural resource systems, both marine and land-based.

The framework includes an area-based target for the protection of 30% of lands and seas globally—through well-connected systems of protected areas. Although the field of connectivity science has grown rapidly, limited progress has been made in tracking conservation connectivity in practice. This is in part due to the lack of a standardizing framework to clarify different purposes, approaches, and datasets—particularly in differentiating a metric from its application within a broader connectivity framework—as well as a benchmark to quantitatively compare alternative approaches. To address this science-practice gap, we developed a novel metric of connectivity called the Protected Network metric (ProNet). ProNet is designed to assess the structural connectivity of a protected area network in a way that can be easily described, clearly communicated, and rapidly computed at high resolution. We evaluated how ProNet adheres to fundamental conservation science principles using a library of hypothetical landscapes, compared it to two commonly used existing connectivity metrics, and demonstrated its performance in assessing connectivity for a set of real-world landscapes selected across the gradient of human modification. More broadly, ProNet is a powerful tool to galvanize emerging connectivity conservation as a countermeasure to increasing fragmentation of global ecosystems. © 2022 The Authors.

The debate, which has been held at scientific and political levels since the 1970s, has as key areas of concern the search for renewable energy sources and the development of new allocation methods and technologies for their optimal use aiming at spatial and social cohesion and justice. With a focus on marine renewable energy sources, and taking Greece as reference area, it is explored whether, and under what conditions, marine energy could support blue economy and climate neutrality. This article seeks to critically discuss contemporary international/European experience with a view to assessing the basic factors that have contributed to the use of blue energy, and identifying the special conditions, constraints and priorities in the management of marine energy potential in coastal countries with geographical and spatial peculiarities and high concentration of protected areas (natural - cultural-historical), as is the case of Mediterranean countries. In this line, a methodology is proposed based on a multifactorial perspective where the geopolitical significance, the local identity and the carrying capacity of the sites gain additional value weight. The aim is to highlight crucial issues that need to be addressed in the energy transition of coastal countries, and embedded as principles/guidelines in the broader framework of their national energy policies in the context of climate neutrality. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,229,,Ocean Coast.

Morphological changes were monitored within a 2-year period using a terrestrial laser scanner and the findings were compared with those from historical ortho-photographs to estimate sea cliff erosion the last 20 years. An advanced wave model supplemented by a model for cliff notch evolution, as well as an analytical model were also used to estimate cliff erosion due to wave attack. Comparisons of sea cliff profiles and calculations of volumetric changes using the collected and historical topographic data showed an average annual recession of about 0.16 m for the period 1997–2016. By comparison, coastal modeling estimated a retreat of about 0.23 m/yr, whereas a 0.14–0.3 m/y recession was assessed by the analytical approach; this reasonable discrepancy with the empirical results, is probably caused, amongst others, by the fact that the models does not account for the protection of cliff toes by a constant supply of erosion debris from above. The wave model was also used to estimate sea cliff retreat rates under a 0.5 m sea level rise and showed a fourfold increase compared with the current recession rate. On the basis of these results, as well as considerations related to the seismicity of the study area, it appears that the factors responsible for the sea cliff retreat are wave action, precipitation-induced surface flows, and earthquake-related instabilities that may cause rapid, large-scale erosion. The outcomes of this study are highlighting the critical interplay of several natural factors and climatic change effect on driving coastal erosion, which consequently results in the loss of ecologically critical habitats, thereby challenging conservation goals and management effectiveness. © 2020, Springer Nature B.V.",,,,3,24,,J.

Therefore, in 2013–2014 the Canary Current Large Marine Ecosystem (CCLME) project supported the development of an experimental participatory monitoring and evaluation (PM&E) approach for the Northwest African MPAs. This perception-based approach, which was implemented in two pilot MPAs in Senegal and Gambia, was then widely shared and discussed through several local meetings as well as in two regional and international workshops. This article aims to document the principles and outcomes of this experimental PM&E approach and also discuss its opportunities and challenges regarding to its potential adoption and use by MPA managers. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,Jan-16,,,175,,Ocean Coast.

The use of taxonomic surrogates in routine monitoring of the reserve effects on fish assemblages may represent a promising method due to its substantial technical and economic benefits. However, higher taxonomic ranks should be used as surrogates with caution, especially for fish, where the approach is still virtually undocumented. This study aims to shed light on relationships between taxonomic relatedness and ecological similarity, which is crucial to assess the relevance of species surrogacy to reflect species-level information and detect changes in fish related to protection regimes. By analyzing data from a Mediterranean MPA, we show that rather being related to taxonomic relationships, the ability of higher taxa to reflect species-level patterns was explained in terms of aggregation level and distribution of species within taxa. Null models using random aggregations of species were created to identify the best surrogates able to depict changes in responses of assemblages to protection observed at the species-level. Comparison of null model predictions with the more classical higher-taxon approach revealed that the latter was not reliable because, unlike null model outcomes, surrogates determined empirically were not relevant for other subsequent independent monitoring. The effectiveness of species surrogates to depict changes in responses of assemblages to protection observed at the species-level depended (1) on the numerical resolution of the aggregation and (2) the magnitude of differences between protected and unprotected locations. Such findings suggest that surrogacy approaches may be applied for routine monitoring of Mediterranean reef fish communities, although mere empirical determinations of sufficient taxonomy seems to be not reliable, legitimizing the use of alternative methods based on null models. Guidelines for the careful use of species surrogacy in the ecological evaluation of MPAs on fish assemblages are provided. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,98-106,,,190,,Biol.

Assessing whether MPA networks meet their objectives requires data from Before the establishment of the network to better discern natural spatiotemporal variation and preexisting differences from the response to protection. Here, we use a Progressive-Change BACIPS approach to assess the ecological effects of a network of five fully and three moderately protected MPAs on fish communities in two coral reef habitats (lagoon and fore reef) based on a time series of data collected five times (over three years) Before and 12 times (over nine years) After the network's establishment on the island of Moorea, French Polynesia. At the network scale, on the fore reef, density and biomass of harvested fishes increased by 19.3% and 24.8%, respectively, in protected areas relative to control fished areas. Fully protected areas provided greater ecological benefits than moderately protected areas. In the lagoon, density and biomass of harvested fishes increased, but only the 31% increase in biomass in fully protected MPAs was significant. Non-harvested fishes did not respond to protection in any of the habitats. We propose that these responses to protection were small, relative to other MPA assessments, due to limited compliance and weak surveillance, although other factors such as the occurrence of a crown-of-thorns starfish outbreak and a cyclone after the network was established may also have impeded the ability of the network to provide benefits. Our results highlight the importance of using fully protected MPAs over moderately protected MPAs to achieve conservation objectives, even in complex social–ecological settings, but also stress the need to monitor effects and adapt management based on ongoing assessments. © 2019 The Authors.",,,,2,10,,Ecosphere,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell,,,,BIOMASS; conservation; CONSERVATION; coral reef; FISH POPULATIONS; FISHERIES; IMPACT ASSESSMENT; impact assessment design; marine spatial planning; partially protected areas; progressive-change BACIPS; protection regime; RECOVERY; RESERVES; SIZE; SPILLOVER; TRENDS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In this context, current negotiations by the United Nations aim for an international legally-binding instrument to improve governance and sustainable use of biodiversity in ABNJ. Penguins are among the most threatened seabird groups today, notably at sea from fisheries and oiling. Here, we examine the available information on penguins’ movements and evaluate their use of ABNJ across species and life-cycle stages. We highlight that in most of the 18 extant penguin species, the birds may undertake spectacular migrations, seasonally or throughout life-cycle stages. Long-range movements were reported in 16 species, with trans-jurisdictional distribution in 14 species, including 13 in ABNJ. Species richness in ABNJ varied extensively according to oceanic region, and also varied according to season. Transboundary movements, notably to ABNJ, are thus remarkably prevalent among penguin species. Consequently, provisions of the treaty under negotiation may crucially benefit penguin conservation, notably by creating a uniform legal framework to designate protected areas in ABNJ, and by promoting the precautionary approach to extraction activities. However, the seasonally-dynamic utilisation of ABNJ by penguins supports the pertinence of adding innovative protection tools, such as mobile Marine Protected Areas, to the negotiations for a more adequate protection of marine biodiversity. Underlining penguins’ remarkable connectivity to the high seas can thus further strengthen this instrument aiming to protect a global ocean commons heritage of mankind. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,131,,Mar.

It extends along the west coast of South America from southern Chile (?42°S) up to Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands near the equator. The general oceanography of the HCS is characterised by a predominant northward flow of surface waters of subantarctic origin and by strong upwelling of cool nutrient-rich subsurface waters of equatorial origin. Along the coast of northern and central Chile, upwelling is localised and its occurrence changes from being mostly continuous (aseasonal) in northern Chile to a more seasonal pattern in southern-central Chile. Several important upwelling centres along the Chilean coast are interspersed with long stretches of coast without or with sporadic and less intense upwelling. Large-scale climatic phenomena (El Nińo Southern Oscillation, ENSO) are superimposed onto this regional pattern, which results in a high spatiotemporal heterogeneity, complicating the prediction of ecological processes along the Chilean coast. This limited predictability becomes particularly critical in light of increasing human activities during the past decades, at present mainly in the form of exploitation of renewable resources (fish, invertebrates and macroalgae). This review examines current knowledge of ecological processes in the HCS of northern and central Chile, with a particular focus on oceanographic factors and the influence of human activities, and further suggests conservation strategies for this high-priority large marine ecosystem. Along the Chilean coast, the injection of nutrients into surface waters through upwelling events results in extremely high primary production. This fuels zooplankton and fish production over extensive areas, which also supports higher trophic levels, including large populations of seabirds and marine mammals. Pelagic fisheries, typically concentrated near main upwelling centres (20-22°S, 32-34°S, 36-38°S), take an important share of the fish production, thereby affecting trophic interactions in the HCS. Interestingly, El Nińo (EN) events in northern Chile do not appear to cause a dramatic decline in primary or zooplankton production but rather a shift in species composition, which affects trophic efficiency of and interactions among higher-level consumers. The low oxygen concentrations in subsurface waters of the HCS (oxygenminimum zone, OMZ) influence predator-prey interactions in the plankton by preventing some species from migrating to deeper waters. The OMZ also has a strong effect on the bathymetric distribution of sublittoral soft-bottom communities along the Chilean coast. The few long-term studies available from sublittoral soft-bottom communities in northern and central Chile suggest that temporal dynamics in abundance and community composition are driven by interannual phenomena (EN and the extent and intensity of the OMZ) rather than by intra-annual (seasonal) patterns. Macrobenthic communities within the OMZ are often dominated in biomass by sulphide-oxidising, mat-forming bacteria. Though the contribution of these microbial communities to the total primary production of the system and their function in structuring OMZ communities is still scarcely known, they presumably play a key role, also in sustaining large populations of economically valuable crustaceans. Sublittoral hard bottoms in shallow waters are dominated by macroalgae and suspension-feeder reefs, which concentrate planktonic resources (nutrients and suspended matter) and channel them into benthic food webs. These communities persist for many years and local extinctions appear to be mainly driven by large-scale events such as EN, which causes direct mortality of benthic organisms due to lack of nutrients/food, high water temperatures, or burial under terrigenous sediments from river runoff. Historic extinctions in combination with local conditions (e.g., vicinity to upwelling centres or substratum availability) produce a heterogeneous distribution pattern of benthic communities, which is also reflected in the diffuse biogeographic limits along the coast of northern-central Chile. Studies of population connectivity suggest that species with highly mobile planktonic dispersal stages maintain relatively continuous populations throughout most of the HCS, while populations of species with limited planktonic dispersal appear to feature high genetic structure over small spatial scales. The population dynamics of most species in the HCS are further influenced by geographic variation in propagule production (apparently caused by local differences in primary production), by temporal variation in recruit supply (caused by upwelling events, frontal systems and eddies), and topographically driven propagule retention (behind headlands, in bay systems and upwelling shadows). Adults as well as larval stages show a wide range of different physiological, ecological and reproductive adaptations. This diversity in life-history strategies in combination with the high variability in environmental conditions (currents, food availability, predation risk, environmental stress) causes strong fluctuations in stocks of both planktonic and benthic resources. At present, it remains difficult to predict many of these fluctuations, which poses particular challenges for the management of exploited resources and the conservation of biodiversity in the HCS. The high spatiotemporal variability in factors affecting ecological processes and the often-unpredictable outcome call for fine-scale monitoring of recruitment and stock dynamics. In order to translate this ecological information into sustainable use of resources, adaptive and co-participative management plans are recommended. Identification of areas with high biodiversity, source and sink regions for propagules and connectivity among local populations together with developing a systematic conservation planning, which incorporates decision support systems, are important tasks that need to be resolved in order to create an efficient network of Marine Protected Areas along the coast of northern-central Chile. Farther offshore, the continental shelf and the deep-sea trenches off the Chilean coast play an important role in biogeochemical cycles, which may be highly sensitive to climatic change. Research in this area should be intensified, for which modern research vessels are required. Biodiversity inventories must be accompanied by efforts to foster taxonomie expertise and museum collections (which should integrate morphological and molecular information). Conservation goals set for the next decade can only be achieved with the incorporation of local stakeholders and the establishment of efficient administrative structures. The dynamic system of the HCS in northern-central Chile can only be understood and managed efficiently if a fluent communication between stakeholders, administrators, scientists and politicians is guaranteed.",,195-344,,,45,,Oceanogr.

Capital markets are increasingly accessible for sustainable development and climate finance, and are gaining traction for biodiversity conservation. Such financing concepts could also be applied in the High Seas. Drawing on natural capital economics as a way to ascribe economic value, specific marine investment opportunities can be identified and made accessible to new financiers and funding processes. International waters cover nearly half of the planet's surface, yet governance deficiencies have meant that marine habitats and ecosystems are rapidly deteriorating. Improved governance through the proposed Marine Biodiversity Implementing Agreement discussed under the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea and delivery of the Sustainable Development Goals, in particular ocean goal 14, will require additional financial support for High Seas solutions, including for the effective management of marine reserves. For projects to be attractive to funders they need to be clearly structured and deliver quantifiable benefits. A comprehensive ocean data infrastructure could be put in place to support large-scale marine conservation monitoring cost-effectively. This infrastructure could serve also other ocean users, thereby defraying the cost and could be delivered through public–private partnerships. Development finance and climate finance provide examples for relevant pathways for such integrated approaches. Existing efforts to find additional funding for ocean solutions can be enhanced through the range of specific innovative ocean finance mechanisms that are identified. These offer the prospect of long-term support.

This article leverages 15-years of scholarship on green bonds to develop an analytical framework that is applied to five of the world's first blue bonds. A comprehensive content analysis of sources such as blue bond project documents and secondary interviews is used to synthesise their characteristics, and consider trends related to their thematic scope, geographical scope, environmental impacts, and financial returns. Thematically, blue bond proceeds are channelled towards projects aligned with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 14 ‘Life Below Water’, the Blue Economy, and policy discourse around the ‘blue recovery’ from covid-19. These projects range from marine protected area (MPA) creation, to improved fisheries management, and potentially, oil and gas exploration. However, greater explanation of the logic through which project activities are expected to deliver impact and returns is warranted. Equally, impact measurement is often underwhelming, with many bonds targeting easy-to-measure outputs (e.g., area conserved) rather than outcomes and impacts (e.g., increases in fish abundance). While an alluring and useful financial innovation, greater disclosure on the individual projects and enterprises that blue bonds finance is necessary to validate their sustainability credentials and inform investor decision making. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,144,,Mar.

Jones, 132 S. Ct. 945 (2012), all nine Supreme Court Justices agreed that Jones was searched when the police attached a Global Positioning System (GPS) device to the undercarriage of his car and tracked his movements for four weeks. The Court, however, splintered on what constituted the search: the attachment of the device or the long-term monitoring. The majority held that the attachment of the GPSdevice and an attempt to obtain information was the violation; Justice Alito, concurring, argued that the monitoring was a violation of Jones's reasonable expectation of privacy; and Justice Sotomayor, also concurring, agreed with them both, but would provide further Fourth Amendment protections. This report will examine these three decisions in an effort to find their place in the body of existing Fourth Amendment law pertaining toprivacy, property, and technology. In Jones, the police attached a GPS tracking device to the bottom of Jones's car and monitored his movements for 28 days. At trial, the prosecution relied on Jones's movements to a stash house to tie him to a drug conspiracy. Jones was convicted and given a life sentence. The United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit reversed, holding that the evidence was unlawfully obtained under the Fourth Amendment. The Supreme Court agreed. The majority, speaking through Justice Scalia, explained that a physical intrusion into a constitutionally protected area, coupled with an attempt to obtain information, can constitute a violation of the Fourth Amendment. Although the Court's landmark decision in Katz v. United States, 389 U.S. 347 (1967),supposedly altered the focus of the Fourth Amendment from property to privacy, the majority argued that it left untouched traditional spheres of Fourth Amendment protection-a person and his house, papers, and effects. Because the police had invaded Jones's property-his car, which is an effect-that was all the Court needed to hold that a constitutional search had occurred. The majority's test, however, provides little guidance in instances where the government need not physically install a device to conduct surveillance, for instance, by using cell phones or preinstalled GPS devices in vehicles. To understand how the Court may rule on these technologies, one must look to the two concurrences, which provide a more global interpretation of the Fourth Amendment. Justice Alito, writing for a four-member concurrence, would have applied the Katzprivacy formulation, asserting that longer-term monitoring constitutes an invasion of privacy, whereas short-term monitoring does not. He left it to future courts to distinguish between the two. Justice Sotomayor's concurrence appears to provide the most protection, finding that both the trespass approach and the privacy-based approach should be utilized. She also questioned the rule that any information provided to a third party, which occurs in many commercial transactions like banking or computing, should lose all privacy protections. Although all three opinions concluded that the government's action in Jones was a earch, none expressly required that police get a warrant in future GPS tracking cases. (The government forfeited the argument.)

Here, we used acoustic telemetry to investigate the spatial behavior of anadromous brown trout (sea trout, Salmo trutta) in relation to a small marine reserve (~1.5 km2) located inside a fjord on the Norwegian Skagerrak coast. On average, sea trout spent 42.3 % (±5.0% SE) of their time in the fjord within the reserve, a proportion similar to the area of the reserve relative to that of the fjord. On average, sea trout tagged inside the reserve received the most protection, although the level of protection decreased marginally with increasing home range size. Furthermore, individuals tagged outside the reserve received more protection with increasing home range size, potentially opposing selection toward smaller home range sizes inflicted on fish residing within reserves, or through selective fishing methods like angling. Monthly sea trout home ranges in the marine environment were on average smaller than the reserve, with a mean of 0.430 (±0.0265 SE) km2. Hence, the reserve is large enough to protect the full home range of some individuals residing in the reserve. Synthesis and applications: In general, the reserve protects sea trout to a varying degree depending on their individual behavior. These findings highlight evolutionary implications of spatial protection and can guide managers in the design of marine reserves and networks that preserve variation in target species' home range size and movement behavior. © 2018 The Authors.

Hence, mechanical bark treatments, such as debarking, of disturbance-affected trees have been widely promoted as an on-site method of pest control that accounts for conservation targets because woody biomass is retained. However, the effects of debarking to non-target biodiversity remain unclear. We analyzed data from a two-and-a-half-year field survey of wood-inhabiting fungi, saproxylic beetles and parasitoid wasps in twelve artificial windthrows, created by pulling down mature Norway spruce trees (Picea abies) with winches. Each experimental windthrow comprising one control tree, one completely debarked tree and one bark-scratched tree. Insects were sampled using stem emergence traps. Fruiting bodies of wood-inhabiting fungi, number of wood wasp emergence holes, and number of holes made by foraging woodpeckers were assessed by visual counts. We recorded the amount of time needed to complete debarking by machine, bark-scratching by machine and bark-scratching by chainsaw each on 15 separate trees to estimate the economic costs of mechanical bark treatments. Our results revealed that both debarking and bark-scratching significantly decreased numbers of the emerging target pest Ips typographus to in median 4% (debarked) and 11% (scratched bark) of the number of individuals emerging from untreated control trees. Compared to control trees, debarking significantly reduced the species density of wood-inhabiting fungi, saproxylic beetles, and parasitoid wasps. By contrast, bark-scratching did not reduce the overall species density of wood-inhabiting fungi, saproxylic beetles or parasitoid wasps. The time needed for bark-scratching by machine was significantly lower than debarking, whereas bark-scratching by chainsaw needed a similar amount of time as conventional debarking. However, bark-scratching did have some negative effects in common with debarking, such as the significant reduction of wood wasps emergence holes and the reduction of holes made by foraging woodpeckers. Hence, bark-scratching of downed trees, like debarking, might affect higher trophic levels of biodiversity and should be applied only if pest management is urgently needed. We urge policy makers and natural resource managers to rapidly shift current pest management toward new techniques of bark-scratching, particularly in protected areas. Such a shift in post-disturbance pest-control will foster ecosystem integrity at lower economic cost compared to debarking. © 2015.",,Oct-16,,,364,,For. Ecol.

Rocky shore ecosystems comprise a mosaic of habitat types and therefore require good technology to extract fine-scale spatial data on habitat extent and quality. Airborne topographic light detection and ranging data and 0.1-m resolution digital aerial photography were used to map and quantify distinct habitats that influence the distribution of biodiversity on rocky shores. The objectives of this study were to create and test the accuracy of a classification system for the rocky shore habitat, to develop remote sensing techniques useful for the conservation of intertidal rocky shores, and to create detailed digital terrain models for five headlands in the Solitary Island Marine Park, mid-north coast, New South Wales, Australia. The intertidal rocky shore habitats were classified according to tidal heights and substrate type. Ground-truthing of remote sensing data was carried out by visual surveys during low tide. Error assessments using precision analysis and classification accuracy tests confirmed the reliability of the technique with <5% error.

We surveyed the global literature relating to the LTK of marine environments and analyzed what knowledge has been collected and with what aims and results. A large proportion of LTK which has been documented by researchers consists of species-specific information that is important for traditional resource use. However, knowledge relating to marine ecology, environmental change, and contemporary resource management practices is increasingly emphasized in the literature. Today, marine LTK is being used to provide historical and contemporary baseline information, suggest stewardship techniques, improve conservation planning and practice, and to resolve management disputes. Still, comparatively few studies are geared toward the practicalities of developing a truly collaborative, adaptive, and resilient management infrastructure that is embracive of modern science and LTK and practices in marine environments. Based on the literature, we thus suggest how such an infrastructure might be advanced through collaborative projects and ""bridging"" institutions that highlight the importance of trust-building and the involvement of communities in all stages of research, and the importance of shared interest in project objectives, settings (seascapes), and outcomes.",,,,3,17,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000309475800003,,,,,,,adaptive comanagement; CLIMATE-CHANGE; collaborative research; collaborative resource management; ecological monitoring; environmental change; EPINEPHELUS-ITAJARA TELEOSTEI; GOLIATH GROUPER; historical ecology; INDIGENOUS ECOLOGICAL KNOWLEDGE; LANDSCAPE TERMS; local and traditional knowledge (LTK); marine conservation; marine ecology; marine ecosystems; PLACE-NAMES; PROTECTED AREA; SEA-ICE; SMALL-SCALE FISHERIES; WHALES DELPHINAPTERUS-LEUCAS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

As a means of reflecting on the breadth and range of scientific research on the management of the marine environment, this paper develops an analytical framework to gauge the foci of policy documents and published scientific work on Marine Protected Areas. We evaluate the extent to which MPA research articles delineate objectives around three domains: biological-ecological [B]; economic-social[E]; and governance-management [G]. This permits us to develop an analytic [BEG] framework which we then test on a sample of selected journal article cohorts. While the framework reveals the dominance of biologically focussed research [B], analysis also reveals a growing frequency of the use of governance/management terminology in the literature over the last 15 years, which may be indicative of a shift towards more integrated consideration of governance concerns. However, consideration of the economic/social domain appears to lag behind biological and governance concerns in both frequency and presence in MPA literature. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,546-563,,4,47,,Environ.

Research suggests effective management of such protected areas is vital if desired outcomes are to be achieved within the allotted time period. This Special Feature on MPAs therefore seeks to address two key questions derived from the management effectiveness framework of Hockings and others (2000), namely: 'How appropriate are the management systems and processes in place?' and 'Were the desired Objectives achieved-and if so, why?' Fourteen articles, drawing on different disciplinary perspectives relating to MPA experiences from across the globe, offers insights into these questions by considering, inter alia, how: are MPA sites selected?; is 'buy-in' to the process from the various stakeholders achieved?; are these stakeholder's views reflected in the management systems that evolve?, and what monitoring and evaluation mechanisms are in place? Bringing these perspectives and approaches together through the medium of this Special Feature is thus intended to further our understanding of the different issues that may confront both planners and managers of Marine Protected Areas. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,519-524,,4,47,,Environ.

The SMMA has been established for 22 years and although initially heralded as a success at resolving user conflicts and conserving biodiversity, drivers and conflicts in the area have since changed, and there are concerns that the self-sufficient SMMA has not adapted to these changes. Contemporary driving forces include a growing tourism industry and climate change. The SMMA is struggling to tackle these issues due to poor law enforcement, a weak legal system and a lack of political will. Although the SMMA on paper adopts a co-management governance approach, results from the analysis suggest the government remains highly influential. Financial constraint is also a huge challenge for the SMMA and, unable to provide benefits to the community, socioeconomic objectives are being undermined. The future focus should be on improving the financial situation by raising funds through ensuring all user fees are being collected. An equal ratio of government members to non-government stakeholders on the Board would help to re-engage the co-management approach, aiding the SMMA in again achieving its conservation objectives. © 2020",,,,,127,,Mar.

Although considered to be the pinnacle in marine conservation, many permit non-consumptive activities with little or no regulation. This paper examines the potential impacts of 16 non-consumptive activities including scuba diving, sailing, scientific research and motor boating, and how they might compromise the conservation objectives of marine reserves. Examination of 91 marine reserves from 36 countries found little agreement or consistency in what non-consumptive activities are permitted in marine reserves and how they are regulated. The two most common activities allowed without regulation were swimming (mentioned in 80% of marine reserves and allowed in 63% of these) and kayaking (mentioned in 85%, allowed in 53%). Scuba diving was mentioned in 91% and allowed without regulation in 41%. A risk score for the likely level of threat to wildlife and/or habitats that each activity could produce was then assigned based on effects reported in the literature. The risk analysis suggests that motor boating and activities which include or require it have a high potential to negatively impact wildlife and habitats if inadequately managed. Hence protection against extractive or depositional activities alone is insufficient to secure the high standard of protection usually assumed in marine reserves. For this to be achieved activities typically considered as benign must receive appropriate management, especially with increasing recreational use. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,1096-1104,,5,36,,Mar.

We considered the 3 key and basic questions of why to protect, how much to protect, and where to protect natural areas. Human survival depends on functioning ecosystems and the ecosystem services they provide. In this regard, conserving core biodiversity conservation priority areas (BCPAs) can provide maximum conservation benefit. The goals of protected area (PA) systems globally and nationally must be clearly defined so as to sustain the survival and development of people and to coordinate and balance other objectives with this goal at the center. There is an urgent need to study, calculate, and define the extent of the natural world to ensure the well-being of people. We call this area over which natural areas of land and sea extend across the world or a country nature proportion (N%). Especially, a minimum area that ensures human survival should be protected, and we suggest that this area should cover core BCPAs so that it can achieve the maximum conservation benefit. These recommendations could be applied at global or national levels. The Chinese government proposes “developing a protected-area system composed mainly of national parks,” and it has unified the administration of PAs into a central management authority. At this key time in the reform of the PA system, should this proposal be adopted, conservation will garner the greatest social consensus and support, and planning at the national level for BCPA coverage will be improved. We believe these recommendations are critical for China and other countries and extremely important for the world because they will pave the way toward a balance between nature conservation and human development as the projected human population reaches 10 billion by 2050. © 2018 Society for Conservation Biology",,231-238,,2,33,,Conserv.

Systematic conservation planning and effective management actions within these parks highly rely on an in-depth evaluation of biodiversity metrics. In China, the Giant Panda National Park (GPNP) is one of the first five national parks. To establish baseline metrics of mammal and bird diversity in GPNP, we conducted a meta-analysis based on published camera-trapping data. Methods: We systematically searched academic publications, project reports, and news articles that reported on wildlife camera-trapping studies between 2005 and 2020 in GPNP. We also conducted a questionnaire survey on the history and results of camera-trap monitoring projects within the protected areas of the region. These data were compiled for statistical analysis. Results: Between 2005 and 2020, 71 wild mammal species belonging to 6 orders, 22 families and 55 genera, and 232 wild bird species belonging to 13 orders, 45 families and 132 genera were recorded via camera-trap monitoring in 51 protected areas within GPNP. Among the four mountain ranges within GPNP (i.e., Mts. Qinling, Mts. Minshan, Mts. Qionglai and Mts. Xiangling), the species richness of large- and medium-sized terrestrial mammals and birds was the highest in Mts. Qionglai and Mts. Minshan (40 mammal and 12 pheasant species for each) and the lowest in Mts. Xiangling (25 mammal and 7 pheasant species). The recorded number of target species in individual protected areas was positively correlated with the area of protected area, sampling effort (measured as number of camera-days), and the camera station elevation range. The numbers of species recorded in national protected areas (28 ± 8.3, mean ± SD) were significantly higher than those in provincial protected areas (19 ± 8.9). Four large carnivores of Felidae and Canidae (leopard Panthera pardus, snow leopard P. uncia, wolf Canis lupus and dhole Cuon alpinus) were recorded in GPNP, primarily from Mts. Qinling and Mts. Qionglai, while no large carnivores were recorded within the park in Mts. Minshan and only one wolf was recorded in Mts. Xiangling. Conclusion: The previous protected area network and camera-trapping monitoring network prior to the establishment of GPNP have already accumulated a high quantity of data on wild mammals and birds in this region. These data provide a reliable baseline biodiversity inventory for the pilot and construction phases of GPNP. In light of these results, GPNP should design and implement a standardized wildlife monitoring system to further provide additional data for future evaluations of park management, decision-making, and conservation effectiveness. © 2021, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The achievement of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) under the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) mechanism has brought new hope for global biodiversity governance, and provided a pathway to halt and reverse biodiversity loss trends. As the core element of the GBF, the 30 by 30 target successfully adopted with the support of extensive actions of the international community and a large number of scientific researches. This paper reviews the origin and development process of the 30 by 30 target based on its global development trends and international policy promotion, and analyzes the change and development of its key elements such as area proportion, spatial extension, protection effectiveness of the protected area (PA) system, and inclusive management methods in PA. Combined with the successful experience of existing international processes, this paper explores the path to achieve the 30 by 30 target through a large number of scientific research as well. Results: The gradual increase in the 3030 target from 10% to 30% has not yet met the expectations of the scientific community, but has contributed to the efforts of countries and the expansion of the global network of PA. Other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs), improving the quality of PA, and the involvement of stakeholders, such as indigenous peoples and local communities, can significantly strength the protection of land and sea. The pathway to achieve the 30 by 30 target including strong international policy guidance, firm and effective financial security, in-depth and rigorous scientific research, responsible national action and broad inclusive participation and collaboration of stakeholders. At the same time, we recognize that it has been less than seven years since it was expected to be achieved. To achieve the ambitious 30 by 30 target and truly halt and reverse the biodiversity loss and decline, there are several challenges, including expand the PA system while improving quality; overcome the gap of PA survey data and the limited monitoring measures; the limitations of understanding the marine PA; the exploration of inclusive management methods and the integration of national goals at the global scale. We recommend that the quality of PA should be paid more attention than quantitative targets, strengthen PA monitoring to address data gaps, raise awareness of the importance of marine PA, and explore inclusive management approaches for PA, and strengthen the integration and implementation of the global target at the national scale. Conclusion & Recommendation: The 30 by 30 target is not only a politically driven goal, but its research, consultation and implementation process also reflect new perspectives on the integration of science, traditional knowledge and international policy systems, reflecting emerging scientific insights, social values and global challenges, prompting a phased change in the relationship between people and nature, and between people, and contributing to a new understanding of PA networks and other protected regions. © 2024, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Although the management of MPAs usually focuses on one dominant use or intention, the existence of competing users often demonstrate the need for multiple-use management. When appropriate to utilize, this approach may promote the maximum employment of possible uses while providing for the prevention of conflicts over space, time, and resources. For example, despite the predominant emphasis in most MPAs, management may also concentrate upon cultural,historic, and socio-economic concerns of the nations and people directly affected by the area's designation. With proper controls and planning some protected areas may accommodate several non-interfering uses without compromising the protection of natural ecosystems or habitats. This can lead, thus, to long-term sustainable resource management. A number of ocean management techniques exist to address the potential dilemma of multiple uses within marine protected areas. Chief among these are the establishment of zones of activity ( or non-activity). Although ocean processes do not respect human jurisdictional boundaries, and biological communities and resources are not uniformly distributes within the large-scale marine system, the use of zone strives to create a management system that meets multiple objectives while maintaining the ecological integrity of an area. Several successful and non-successful multiple-use MPA management plans that utilize zoning are currently in place and can be compared.",,2218,,,2,,,,,,,,Publ by ASCE,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Coastal Zone,,,,Coastal zones; Ecology; Job analysis; Land use; Marine protected areas; Multiple use; Ocean management techniques; Oceanography; Regional planning,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Coastal Zone: Proceedings of the Symposium on Coastal and Ocean Management,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A method for assessing the vulnerability of coastal resources to climate change was developed using existing coastal vulnerability assessment tools together with remote sensing data, and implemented by different partner institutions on selected study sites throughout the country. This paper describes the vulnerability assessment framework, its implementation, and synthesis of the results from the different studies to come up with a summary of issues that increases the sensitivities of coastal resources to climate change hazards and the recommendations to increase the adaptive capacity of these resources and the communities that engage with them. The vulnerability of the resources was evaluated in three general aspects, namely Intrinsic Characteristics and Governance, Anthropogenic Activities, and Habitat Characteristics. These aspects were integrated to produce an overall vulnerability assessment for each type of coastal resource. Using this framework, the implementing institutions were able to identify the areas of concern for each study site and were able to recommend the necessary management actions for the stakeholder's to mitigate the effects of climate change to these resources. It was found that the most of the coastal resources in the study sites have a medium to high vulnerability to the impacts of climate change. The most at risk are the mangroves, since these are found within close distance to anthropogenic activities. Seagrasses and corals have medium to high vulnerabilities; however, these have higher adaptive capabilities than mangroves as the Marine Protected Areas set are commonly focused on these resources. The recommendations for the study sites include increasing the communities' awareness on the importance of these coastal resources and intensifying the implementation of policies aimed at the conservation and protection of these resources. © Corrosion and Prevention 2017.

To inform conservation management of these protected areas, the present study identified potentially-invasive NNS as well as introduction vectors and pathways for the southern Caribbean islands of Grenada, and St Vincent and the Grenadines. The activities associated with the introduction vectors and pathways relevant to priority NNS were assessed to highlight locations within the risk assessment area at elevated risk of NNS introduction and spread. The preliminary NNS list comprised 223 species of which 10 were screened using the Aquatic Species Invasiveness Screening Kit, which generated scores indicating moderate-to-high risk (18–51) of being invasive in the risk assessment area, based on generalized global threshold scores. The ports of Kingston (St Vincent) and St George’s (Grenada) were associated with the greatest shipping and boating activity, indicating elevated risk of NNS introductions by way of these vectors. Coastal areas in the south of the risk assessment area were associated with highest risk of introduction of NNS by natural dispersal. The evidence presented in this study provides a strong basis upon which to develop and implement risk-based biosecurity and monitoring programmes to protect and conserve this region’s marine protected areas. © 2021 Crown copyright.

To mitigate against this threat with limited conservation resources, stakeholders must make decisions on where to focus anti-poaching activities. Identifying priority areas in a robust way allows decision-makers to target areas of conservation importance, therefore maximizing the impact of conservation interventions. Location: Annamite mountains, Vietnam and Laos. Methods: We conducted systematic landscape-scale surveys across five study sites (four protected areas, one unprotected area) using camera-trapping and leech-derived environmental DNA. We analysed detections within a Bayesian multispecies occupancy framework to evaluate species responses to environmental and anthropogenic influences. Species responses were then used to predict occurrence to unsampled regions. We used predicted species richness maps and occurrence of endemic species to identify areas of conservation importance for targeted conservation interventions. Results: Analyses showed that habitat-based covariates were uninformative. Our final model therefore incorporated three anthropogenic covariates as well as elevation, which reflects both ecological and anthropogenic factors. Conservation-priority species tended to found in areas that are more remote now or have been less accessible in the past, and at higher elevations. Predicted species richness was low and broadly similar across the sites, but slightly higher in the more remote site. Occupancy of the three endemic species showed a similar trend. Main conclusion: Identifying spatial patterns of biodiversity in heavily defaunated landscapes may require novel methodological and analytical approaches. Our results indicate that to build robust prediction maps it is beneficial to sample over large spatial scales, use multiple detection methods to increase detections for rare species, include anthropogenic covariates that capture different aspects of hunting pressure and analyse data within a Bayesian multispecies framework. Our models further suggest that more remote areas should be prioritized for anti-poaching efforts to prevent the loss of rare and endemic species. © 2020 The Authors.

Nevertheless, multidimensional threats and stressors, the capacity to supply ESs, and the biodiversity of the TH significantly degrades and threatens this wetland’s conservation and sustainability. Although the legal framework promises the sustainable conservation of fisheries resources, information on the implementation scenarios of fisheries laws, regulations, and policies in the TH Ramsar are scant. By merging qualitative and quantitative data of primary and secondary sources, this research aimed to analyze the legal framework to check the effectiveness of regulations for non-conflicting fisheries resources and the sustainable conservation of the TH Ramsar. Primary empirical data were collected by employing Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) tools, i.e., 204 semi-structured questionnaire-based individual interviews with fishers, three focus group discussions, and 14 key informants’ interviews in three fishing villages in the TH. In contrast, secondary data was set by reviewing published literature and related official documents. Results showed that, due to weak enforcement with inadequate surveillance and poor implementation of the legal framework, there was a high non-compliance with fishing laws, rules, and policies. Destructive and prohibited fishing gears, e.g., the use of small mesh fine nylon nets (current jal), purse seine net (ber jal), and the harvesting during ban period-illicit catch were widespread in the study areas. In addition, catching undersized fish, fishing at the restricted areas (sanctuary area), and fishing during spawning seasons occur often. There is a crying need for a comprehensive legal and policy framework to contextualize the local context, ensure the proper implementation of the fishing laws and regulations, increase the managerial inefficiency of enforcing agencies, ensure livelihood support during the fishing ban, and afford good alternative income options are still significant issues for good governance in the Tanguar Haor ECA. Findings might help to identify the gaps and misunderstanding of the existing legal practice while submitting urgent attention to the need for drawing a comprehensive legal and policy framework (contextually modified according to the local context), taking initiatives and acting synchronously for proper implementation, and calling transdisciplinary collaboration and cooperation among the agencies that may ensure the non-conflicting use of the natural resources of the TH that can be also helpful for the better conservation of this Ramsar wetland. © 2021 by the authors.

Currently, marine reserves (no-take areas) cover approximately 2.2% of the world's oceans whilst most calls and targets suggest protection levels should be between 20% and 30% in order to achieve both conservation and resource management objectives. In this study a systematic conservation planning framework was developed using ecological and socio-economic data. This framework was used to test different protection scenarios in Portugal. The current situation in mainland Portugal is alarming, with 0.2% of the waters under national jurisdiction included in MPAs and only 0.002% being marine reserves. Moreover, ecologically important habitats, such as seagrass beds and mäerl beds, have less than 10% of their area protected. The solutions provided by Marxan, and subsequently improved with MinPatch, revealed that there is a need to considerably increase the area under protection. However, adequate protection could be achieved with a number of MPAs (between 5 and 14) similar to the number of already existing MPAs (n = 8). Different stakeholders (artisanal fisheries, industrial fisheries, and other human uses such as oil and gas, and offshore aquaculture) were considered in different scenarios, with the results of the multivariate analysis indicating that there are several solutions that satisfy all stakeholders. Therefore, the results of this study are a valuable starting point for the ongoing implementation process of an MPA network in Portugal since they integrate the most important stakeholders whilst also taking in consideration the ecological aspects. This framework can be applied elsewhere and can be easily amended whenever new information is available. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,184,,Ocean Coast.

The area of seagrass beds in Cu Lao Cham Marine Protected Area (MPA), central Vietnam, has been reported to be declining in recent years. However, there has not been any study on assessing the changes in the area of seagrass beds in Cu Lao Cham MPA, especially by the application of remote sensing technology for evaluating temporal and spatial changes. The aim of this study is to establish the current status and document historical changes using maps of seagrass area in Cu Lao Cham MPA, central Vietnam, during the period of 2003–2017. This is the first study on assessing the temporal and spatial changes in the area of seagrass beds in central Vietnam using remote sensing technology. The study integrated field surveys, satellite remote sensing and GIS methods to analyse ALOS AVNIR-2 and Landsat satellite image data during the period of 2003–2017. The Kappa coefficients and overall accuracies of the years 2003, 2010 and 2017 were generally higher than 89% and 0.83, respectively, in all cases. Seagrass beds have mainly distributed near small islands such as Hon La, Hon Tai and Hon Dai. In particular, seagrass beds have almost disappeared at Bai Ong and Bai Huong in April 2017. In the period of 2003–2017, the area of the seagrass bed experienced significant changes. The seagrass area loss was 40.17 ha, and it gained 58.6 ha in the period of 2003–2010. In the period of 2010–2017, the loss of seagrass area was 68.76 ha, and the new addition was 7.27 ha. The study has identified a number of impacts of declining seagrass areas including marine pollution, changes in natural conditions and some other direct impacts from human activities and tourism. The results of this study could contribute to conservation of seagrass resources and sustainable livelihood development for the local community. © 2019, Springer Nature B.V.",,7639-7660,,8,22,,Environ.

Skeels is a unique endemic species in Morocco, renowned for its ecological characteristics and socio-economic importance. In Morocco, recent years have seen an exacerbation of the harmful effects of climate change, leading to an alarming decline in the natural regeneration of this species in its original habitats. It seems that the only viable solution lies in the domestication of this genetic heritage. This study marks the first in-depth investigation of the impact of various climatic and edaphic factors on the morphological and physiological traits of Argania spinosa young plants, assessed in six separate orchards and observed over four seasons (March 2022 (Winter), June 2022 (Summer), November 2022 (Autumn), and March 2023 (Winter)). A climatic assessment was carried out at each site, including measurements of rainfall, maximum and minimum temperatures, mean temperature, air temperature, and wind speed. The soil was analyzed for the pH, electrical conductivity (EC), water content, limestone (CaCO3), Kjeldahl nitrogen (N), available phosphorus (P2O5), organic matter (OM), and carbon/nitrogen ratio (C/N). To gain a better understanding of the morphophysiological characteristics of young argan seedlings, we carried out various observations, such as measuring the height and diameter of aerial parts, and the water content of leaves (WCL) and branches (WCB), quantifying chlorophyll (mg/m2) and leaf area. The results revealed a significant impact of edaphic and climatic factors on the morphophysiological parameters of young argan trees. Results revealed significant correlations of young argan plants between edaphic and climatic factors and morphophysiological parameters. The Tamjloujt site, characterized by protective vegetation cover, showed optimal growth conditions with the highest leaf and branch water content (46.89 ± 4.06% and 37.76 ± 3.51%, respectively), maximum height growth (91.33 ± 28.68 mm), trunk diameter (24.85 ± 3.78 mm), and leaf surface area (69.33 ± 19.28 mm2) during Summer 2022. The Saharan zone of Laqsabi exhibited peak chlorophyll concentrations (506.9 ± 92.25 mg/m2) during Autumn 2022, due to high temperatures. The mountainous environment of Imoulass negatively impacted plant growth (mean height: 52.61 ± 12.37 mm; diameter: 6.46 ± 1.57 mm) due to harsh climatic and edaphic conditions. This research provides vital knowledge regarding the environmental factors influencing the establishment of young argan plants within the Argan Biosphere Reserve. This contributes to the development of more effective domestication strategies and the restoration of agroecosystems. The aim is to use this knowledge to promote the rehabilitation and sustainability of argan agroecosystems. © 2025 by the authors.",,,,1,14,,Plants,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI),,,,Argania spinosa; CHLOROPHYLL SYNTHESIS; CISTUS-ALBIDUS; climatic parameters; DROUGHT TOLERANCE; GROWTH; PHOTOSYNTHESIS; plant morphophysiology; soil parameters; SOIL-SALINITY; SPINOSA L.; STEM DIAMETER VARIATIONS; STOMATAL CONDUCTANCE; WATER-STRESS; young plants,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This activity facilitates the growth of the economic activities of communities in many regions of the country, and it may be a tool for awareness about the marine preservation and conservation. Moreover, the whale or dolphin watching also impacts native species. The Fernando de Noronha Archipelago (FN) is a worldwide watching tourism site due to the time of the development of activities and the ease to watch cetaceans, mainly the spinner dolphin (Stenella longirostris). The aim of this study was to characterize the dolphin watching in FN. Additionally, we will investigate the applicability of the ""Tourism Area Life Cycle"" (TALC) approach for a tourism activity, identifying the main events or stages that promoted significant changes throughout the history of the activity in the archipelago. We observed that both landbased and boatbased (boat trips) are available in FN. The boat trips are more common and involve the triple of tourists than landbased watching. However, the last provides more informative and educational component. The history of dolphin watching tourism in FN was developed concomitantly with the tourism destination of the archipelago as a whole. Through TALC analysis, dolphin watching in FN had its development together with the destination development and, currently, both areas present stagnation stage indicators. In addition, the landbased watching, for being less impacting and more educative, has potential to increase the visitation. © 2018 Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco.",,,,,7,,Ethnobiol.

It depicts resilience indicators of Socio-Ecological Production Landscapes and Seascapes (SEPLS) and presents a comparative analysis of the resilience capacity of the Sundarbans under two different scenarios. It demonstrates that customary sustainable practices and traditional knowledge of the TRUs augment conservation through restoration and sustainable uses of biodiversity, if TRUs are given a chance and get supported by the government and non-government agencies. The discussion and results overall consist of (a) enhanced understanding of the value of mangrove for building resilience through bio-cultural diversity, (b) exploring area-based conservation and ecosystem-based solutions and (c) assisting the local coastal communities to become key contributors in making the ecosystem more resilient by ensuring their rights. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2022.",,207-231,,,Part F2736,,,,,,,,Springer,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Sustain.

The focus is on the soft-sediment physical habitats and biotopes (the environment and the associated biological communities). Bathymetry and backscatter data were collected using multi-beam sonar system SeaBat 7111. Digital terrain models were produced with a resolution of 3 m and 2 m in the open sea and the coastal area respectively and isobaths at 1 m depth interval were drawn. Data of the sonar function of the multi-beam sonar system was processed to generate sonar mosaic of the area. Areas with similar backscatter characteristics were defined in ArcGIS to delineate distinct acoustic facies that presumably represent different lithological types of seabed sediments. The acoustic facies were validated by sediment samples analysed for particle size and invertebrate macrofauna. Fourteen sediment classes (Folk 16) were identified in the region, besides rock and boulders. Sediments distribution map was created using map algebra algorithm (Saretta et al, 2007). The acoustic facies and sediments distribution maps were integrated in ArcGIS to produce a lithological map. Bray-Curtis similarity and clustering procedure were employed to discriminate macrofauna assemblages and Similarity Percentages analysis was used to define the typical species (PRIMER 6). The biological data were overlaid on the lithological map and biotopes were extrapolated, integrating the lithological with biological data in ArcGIS. Depth boundaries between adjacent biotopes were defined using ROC curve analysis on the depth data, and delineated in ArcGIS to produce the final biotopes map.

The density of these activities in a limited and geographically defined spatial coastal zone, poses significant challenges and pressures on the marine environment, as most of the activities and services are closely interrelated to marine ecosystems. The international community is developing and implementing important measures for the sustainable development of coastal communities, including the creation of marine protected area (MPA) networks. This approach is an ecosystem-based approach targeted at the management of human activities in order to sustain biodiversity and at the same time support viable economic activities essential for the sustainable development of these areas. This paper contributes to the knowledge and best practice examples pertinent to the creation and development of marine protected areas (MPAs) in Europe and the Mediterranean, analyzing ways in which this important and successful tool can be introduced and applied further in the Black Sea. The creation of MPAs is closely associated to studies mainly focusing on scientific observations of the marine environment, participation and direct involvement of stakeholders, as well as evaluating the socioeconomic impacts on coastal communities. Economic benefits of MPAs include job creation in novel areas such as environmental services and products, including non-consumptive activities such as tourism and recreation. The economic value of biological resources is difficult to express in monetary terms, whereas others such as the direct financial benefit to local economies from recreational and other activities centered on MPAs, are easier to calculate. The paper utilizes the basic methods for valuation of environmental goods and services, based on direct costs, capital costs and operating costs, such as labour costs for monitoring and protecting the area. Also indirect costs, mainly through the assessment of potential damages to fishermen who may be harmed by fishing bans, are addressed. The paper finally discusses the interactions between the complex biological, social, economic and institutional factors and proposes a generic model for attaining significant socioeconomic benefits associated with sustainable development of coastal zone areas in the Black Sea. © SGEM2013 All Rights Reserved by the International Multidisciplinary Scientific GeoConference SGEM.",,193-199,,,2,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Int.

However, our current knowledge regarding the physical attributes of seagrass fragments that influence LDD predominantly stems from temperate species and regions. The goal of this paper is to measure seagrass fragment density and viability in two tropical species, assessing various factors influencing their distribution. Methods: We measured the density and viability of floating seagrass fragments for two tropical seagrass species (Zostera muelleri and Halodule uninervis) in two coastal seagrass meadows in the central Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area, Australia. We assessed the effect of wind speed, wind direction, seagrass growing/senescent season, seagrass meadow density, meadow location and dugong foraging intensity on fragment density. We also measured seagrass fragment structure and fragment viability; i.e., potential to establish into a new plant. Key results: We found that seagrass meadow density, season, wind direction and wind speed influenced total fragment density, while season and wind speed influenced the density of viable fragments. Dugong foraging intensity did not influence fragment density. Our results indicate that wave action from winds combined with high seagrass meadow density increases seagrass fragment creation, and that more fragments are produced during the growing than the senescent season. Seagrass fragments classified as viable for Z. muelleri and H. uninervis had significantly more shoots and leaves than non-viable fragments. We collected 0.63 (±0.08 SE) floating viable fragments 100 m?2 in the growing season, and 0.13 (±0.03 SE) viable fragments 100 m?2 in the senescent season. Over a third (38%) of all fragments collected were viable. Conclusion: There is likely to be a large number of viable seagrass fragments available for long distance dispersal. This study's outputs can inform dispersal and connectivity models that are used to direct seagrass ecosystem management and conservation strategies. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,191,,Mar. Environ.

Here, we used the framework of predator-prey spatial games to understand how protected areas shape spatial interactions between harvesters and target species and determine animal mortality. In these spatial games, the ""predator"" searches for ""prey"" and matches their habitat use, unless it meets spatial constraints offering the opportunity for prey to avoid the mortality source. However, such prey refuges could attract predators in the surroundings, which questions the potential benefits for prey. We located, in the Geneva Basin (France), hunting dogs and wild boar Sus scrofa L. during hunting seasons with global positioning systems and very-high-frequency collars. We quantified how the proximity of the reserve shaped the matching between both habitat uses using multivariate analyses and linked these patterns to animals' mortality with a Cox regression analysis. Results showed that habitat uses by both protagonists disassociated only when hunters were spatially constrained by the reserve. In response, hunters increased hunting efforts near the reserve boundary, which induced a higher risk exposure for animals settled over the reserve. The mortality of adult wild boar decreased near the reserve as the mismatch between both habitat uses increased. However the opposite pattern was determined for younger individuals that suffered from the high level of hunting close to the reserve. The predator-prey analogy was an accurate prediction of how the protected area modified spatial relationships between harvesters and target species. Prey-searching strategies adopted by hunters around reserves strongly impacted animal mortality and the efficiency of the protected area for this harvested species. Increasing reserve sizes and/or implementing buffer areas with harvesting limitations can dampen this edge effect and helps harvesters to benefit durably from source populations of reserves. Predator-prey spatial games therefore provide a powerful theoretical background for understanding wildlife-harvester spatial interactions and developing substantial application for sustainable harvesting. © 2012 by the Ecological Society of America.",,648-657,,2,22,,Ecol.

ASA is a training ‘additive’ program, addressed to a selection of students from the School of Architecture Urban Planning Construction Engineering, the School of Design and the School of Engineering of Politecnico di Milano, and it is meant as ‘experimental teaching facility’ in relation to the programs and to the specificities of each Schools. In Mantua, the experience has focused on the issues of recovery and protection of the heritage, consistent with the specificity that characterizes our School, headquarters of UNESCO Chair in Architectural Preservation and Planning in World Heritage Cities. The study case chosen for the project is the Forte of Pietole, subject of an agreement signed between the Municipality of Borgo Virgilio and Politecnico di Milano in December 2015. The Fort is an example of military architecture of great value and importance, because it combines the distinct peculiarities of Austro-Hungarian and French architectural formulations to a much more ancient tradition, as it is located on a slight hill-Mons Virgilii, Virgil’s Hill-where it is believed to be located the birthplace of the Latin poet. In addition, the Fort area is strongly characterized by environmental and natural features, unique in Mantua territory. The project aims to rethink the Fort area as a connection between the old town, the lakes and the protected area of Parco del Mincio, enhancing the tourist attractiveness through the establishment of a range of services and facilities. Specifically this proposal has faced several thematic areas: enhancing the appeal of the territory, seen from a tourist point of view, through increased accessibility-by land and by water-which can always be experienced, thanks to the creation of new spaces, indoor and outdoor; the economic and environmental sustainability of the entire interventions in its different stages, from the choice of materials to be used and the most adequate construction technologies-also in view of its future use-maintenance over time and their recycling with reduced environmental impact; the system of accessibility to the site and the internal paths-especially in relation to the large size and the complex morphology of the soil-also by improving the environmental comfort of the existing spaces and their equipment; the adequacy of interventions in relation to the place, recognizing its specificity and its tangible and intangible heritage, improving its identity with a critical approach that allows to consider the Forte of Pietole as a layered palimpsest of signs, from the origin until the contemporaneity. The outcomes of the proposals were presented in an exhibition staged into the entrance gallery of Forte di Borgoforte, another military settlement including into the defensive building program of this area. The virtually underground space of this gallery-similar to the galleries and corridors of Forte of Pietole-was set up by evoking the suggestion of the environments envisioned in the project. The video was the instrument chosen for the presentation of the project, supported by models and maquettes: along the exposition route the exhibition was divided into six multimedia stations that presented monothematic short films: interviews of visiting and phases of work with students; the relief and the story of the fort through aerial images and footage with drones; the four thematic parts of the project, Exhibition-Exponere, Wellness-Sanare, Accommodation-Habitare and Landscape-Explorare. © 2019, Luciano Editore.

The method was applied in the southern coast of Sicily, where there is the largest SCI (Site of Community Importance) and SPA (Special Protection Area) site of the Region. Here, the dune system was seamlessly occupied by greenhouses, so endangering habitats that guarantee the survival of endemic species, such as the Leopoldia gussonei.

Landscape metrics are commonly used to define landscape patterns and to evaluate fragmentation processes. This investigation focuses on the performance of a set of landscape pattern indices within landscapes characterized by coastal environments and extent below 1,000 ha. The aim is to assess the degree of habitat fragmentation for the monitoring of protected areas and to learn whether values of landscape metrics can characterize fine-resolution landscape patterns. The study areas are three coastal wetlands belonging to the Natura 2000 network and sited on the Adriatic side of Apulia (Southern Italy). The Habitat Maps were derived from the Vegetation Maps generated integrating phytosociological relevés and Earth Observation data. In the three sites, a total of 16 habitat types were detected. A selected set of landscape metrics was applied in order to investigate their performance in assessing fragmentation and spatial patterns of habitats. The final results showed that the most significant landscape patterns are related to highly specialized habitat types closely linked to coastal environments. In interpreting the landscape patterns of these highly specialized habitats, some specific ecological factors were taken into account. The shape indices were the most useful in assessing the degree of fragmentation of habitat types that usually have elongated morphology along the shoreline or the coastal lagoons. In all the cases, to be meaningful, data obtained from the application of the selected indices were jointly assessed, especially at the class level. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,693-713,,2,184,,Environ.

Two NTZs were evaluated, the waters surrounding Ilha Anchieta State Park and Palmas Island in Ubatuba, Săo Paulo, Brazil, for species richness, diversity, and abundance of ichthyofauna, comparing them with two nearby unprotected “Take” Zones. From 23 deployments using Baited Remote Underwater Video (BRUV), 737 individuals from 51 species of fish were recorded. The NTZ community composition was significantly different from Take Zones, with higher average species richness, abundance, and diversity but similar evenness. Seven species, accounting for more than 72% of the composition differences between Take and NTZs, were more abundant in NTZs. Comparisons of individual sites within each zone showed high variability for the Mar Virado Take Zone, with one site grouped with NTZs at 30% similarity. In parallel, BRUV deployed over a short period was assessed as a potential rapid, low-cost method for analyzing the effectiveness of a marine protected area, important for management of sites in low-and middle-income countries with patchy resource availability. BRUV distinguished significant community structure differences between Take and NTZs, with no difference between sites within each classification. Comparing with BRUV conducted for a longer period at two of the four study sites (MV and PA), our rapid study recorded 44.3% of total species using 28% of the survey effort. Compared with a multi-method survey as a proxy for a record of all potential species present at a third site (AI), BRUV recorded 30% of total species using 4.2% of the survey effort. BRUV showed bias towards size classes >15cm and certain feeding strategies, important to note if assessing a single target species. Overall, this rapid implementation of BRUV showed a clear difference between sites that differed in fishing protection level. © 2022 The authors.",,,,,70,,Ocean Coast.

The importance of biodiversity in supporting ecosystem services and functioning has been established; thus, the worldwide creation of marine protected areas (MPAs), the goals of which vary with location, design, management, and compliance enforcement has been increasing. This paper explores the opinions regarding the creation of MPAs in Italy, people's willingness to pay (WTP) for the conservation of marine biodiversity and ecosystem services, and maintenance of MPAs. The results indicate that most people would be willing to pay an entrance fee to MPAs, that is, depending of the valuation scenario proposed the mean WTP for a visit ranged from about €5 to €21 per person, and preferred environmental organizations as the most trustworthy organization type to manage the MPAs. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.",,189-200,,,34,,Ecosyst.

Conservation success is strongly related to how people perceive marine biodiversity and those perceptions can change as a result of the accumulation of knowledge, the quality of the environment, and the appropriate and sustainable management of these areas. Engaging the targeted community in the process of promoting and planning safeguarding activities may also contribute to the acceptability and the dissemination of a shared culture of sustainability and a positive change in behavior. This study investigates people's knowledge, perceptions and feelings toward the protection and improvement of marine biodiversity of coralligenous areas in the North Adriatic Sea in Italy. Several focus groups were conducted in the major towns of the targeted area (N = 107) to explore people's familiarity with marine biodiversity and ecosystem services, and to reveal their opinions and behaviours for certain protection strategies, such as the marine protected area (MPA). We found that coralligenous habitats are not very well known among the general people; in fact, only 42% of respondents had previously heard about biodiversity in these habitats. However, participants agreed that they provide important environmental services that benefit human wellbeing. Moreover, we found that 80% of respondents had heard before of MPA, and the majority of them were in favor of supporting interventions and policies to protect these areas. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,68-78,,,140,,Ocean Coast.

Despite the well-known distribution of global endemic areas, less effort has been devoted in defining local hotspots and their ecological determinants. In this study, we analyzed the distribution and the spatial pattern of endemic diversity of vascular plant in the south-eastern Italian Alps, aiming at identifying the occurrence of local hotspots and focusing on the relationships occurring between alpha (i.e. species richness) and beta diversity (i.e. Local Contributors of Beta Diversity) along with their ecological and spatial drivers. We observed that both alpha and beta diversity metrics have a strong negative relationship, showing a clear spatial pattern. Among the environmental drivers, geomorphological and climatic variables were the most influent, pointing out the importance of landscape heterogeneity and local oceanic climate conditions to favor endemic richness. We also found that historical factors (i.e. Last Glacial Maximum) significantly affected the pattern of endemic diversity. Interestingly, most of the variables showed contrasting effects on alpha and beta diversity. Our study proposes an approach for the identification of local hotspots of endemic species, which take into account both the spatially structured nature of ecological data and their associated environmental drivers. Our findings might provide new insights in the ecological process driving current endemic plant patterns and become pivotal for nature conservationist both to identify areas of high conservation value and to suggest appropriate management schemes also beyond existing protected areas. © 2020 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,43,,Perspect.

In addition to which, the survey of abiding to environmental criteria, the rendering of modes to decrement and prevent the adverse impacts of activities, the preparation of monitoring environmental programs and establishing compatibility between regional activities and the environment, is another aim of this research. The distinguished economic region of Pars Energy in southwestern Iran encompasses 10,000 hectares of land, was established in the year 1998. The South Pars Gas Field consists of 6.8 percent of the total global gas reserves and more than 38 percent of the entire gas reserves of the Country. It is one of the largest resources of the Country's energy, located on the common frontier of Iran and Qatar and is accounted for being, one of the major energy resources, of the Country. The minimum elevation at sea level is zero at the coast and its maximum altitude is approximately 1,400 meters, in the northern heights of the region. The region is situated in the coastal drainage basin and the only regional surface water, is the Gavbandi River. Similarly, the general direction of groundwater flow is towards the sea and its surface level is high. The only active fault present in the region is the Gavbandi Fault, which is situated at a distance of less than 5 kilometers, northeast of the Naieband National Park. In this phase of the research, with the aid of geological maps and types of rocks, in accordance with reference to the Special National Strategy Plan, seismic diagrams and land slides (drifts), in three appropriate zones of durability, semi-suitable and unsuitable have been prepared. In concern with the ground cover conditions, the regional plants are of the Polygonaceae, Leguminesae and the palmaceae families, including a few classifications of weeds and scrubs, small trees, ornamental and fruit bearing trees. Likewise, in the area of study, the bird community is of an acceptable diversity. The presence of several terrestrial and aquatic habitats has lead to a high diversity of birds in the region in having environmental potentials in the area. In the South Pars region, the Naieband National Marine Park and two creeks which are known as Basatin and Bidkhoon are vital environmental banks and suitable locations for spawning and the breeding of aqua life. The proximity with oil and gas installations in the Asalooyeh region can be precarious in two ways. One, in an indirect mode, due to development activities that take place in the area, such as, constructions and littoral structures etc., and in a direct form, due to the perpetual and probable leakage of oil, gas and their derivatives into the regional waters, is possible. According to the census in the year 1996, the township of Kangan had a population of 78,318 persons and with due attention to the economic structure and migration, the area is confronted with a rise in population on the whole. In order to assess and survey the consequences, arising from the South Pars constructional activities on the coastline, as well as the appraisal of the relative potentials and the vulnerability of the various sections, of the implementation location of the project, from a list to recognize occurrences and the matrix, so as to determine and gain an absolute reliability as to the results, two other methods have been utilized. In this study, with the help of determining the slope, soil conditions (from the viewpoint of depth), bed rock (from the viewpoint of durability), ground cover (from the point of view of density), sensitive ecosystems (creeks, the Naieband Gulf and Naieband National Park) and by taking into consideration the specifications and conditions of the limits, proportionate ecological, industrial and residential model surveys of constructions have been prepared in these three aspects and they have been utilized in zoning. After executing the zoning, so as to evaluate and specify the amount of damages caused, due to the various activities, the checklist method was resorted to. The utilization of this method took place in the two phases of construction and exploitation, in 6 of the major or principle regional activities such as, the refinery, petrochemicals, airport, port and docks, gas transition line and transportation. In the checklist used with respect to each of the activities, only the negative consequences as to the exploitation impacts of the environmental factors have been distinguished. These consequences, from the point of view of being a collection of impacts, retrievable and likewise, its impacts on the coastline were surveyed and then the results gained were totalized. In continuation, so as to analyze and appraise the regional environmental impacts and consequences and with due attention to the results of the list, (estimations of the initial impacts), for the recognition of the intensity and importance of the impacts, as well as totalizing the quantitative facets of the impacts and a final decision-making, the impacts predicted in the list method, is in the form of a matrix, in two macro and micro proportions, in which they have been categorized and totalized. With due attention to the results obtained from assessing the capacity, the ecological limits were divided into three zones, the first zone is of 200 hectares, the second zone is of 19,200 hectares and the unsuitable zone, is allocated to 26,300 hectares. In comparing the ecological capacity role of the area, with the special regional development role, illustrates that, approximately 56 percent of the development is in the semi-suitable zone, and 44 percent of the development shall be conducted in the unsuitable zone. With due attention to the fact that since that the development in the region under study, shall be executed in the unsuitable environmental bed, though, due to the vast importance and aptness of the region, in continuance with more accurate surveys of the limits under study with the aid of other methods in connection with the project implementation was taken into discussion. The results of the checklist show that from between the 6 main activities present in the South Pars Development Plan Region, the refinery and petrochemicals, followed by the gas transfer pipelines, has the highest percentage of adverse impacts on the environment. Similarly, the results of the implementation matrixes of the project in the region do not qualify. Due to the outstanding economic benefits of the South Pars region and the joint participation issue, as well as the exploitation of this resource by the southern neighbors of Iran, a termination of the plan activities is not feasible. Therefore, in the continuation of this research, modes to decrease the impacts and environmental monitoring under influence, with due attention to the regional conditions have been rendered. After surveying the impacts of the mentioned plan, on the various environmental components, as well as with emphasis on pollution and environmental destruction as an adverse impact of the project on the environment, the manner to decrement the negative impacts of the project in the region has been given in brief, as follows: Means to reduce the adverse impacts of the project on the physical environment: Conservation and restoration of the regional lands, reducing the impacts arising from the occurrence of inundation in the region, abiding to the 60 meter perimeter from the coast, for several constructional activities in the area, preparing the required equipments for the collection of coastal sand, polluted with oil products, the utilization of suitable chemical compounds for purging oil pollution in the region Manner to decrease the oil impacts on the biological environment: Utilizing recycled water and surface runoffs, utilizing brackish or fresh water resources, Use of irrigation systems prone to slighter consumption, prevention of industrial development in the direction of the Naieband National Park, prevention of the discharge of untreated urban, industrial and agricultural sewage and wastewaters into the sea, abiding to the standards and controlling the temperature of sewage released into the marine water (sea), controlling the leakage from oil pipes and installations, including the particular oil tankers utilized for the replacement of oil produce Method to reduce the adverse impacts on the socio-economic and cultural environment: Performing population scanning studies, executing special tutorial programs, so as to establish coordination between the indigenous populace, abiding in rendering priority to indigenous individuals, in relative to employing manpower Modes to decrement the environmental pollution impacts: Accurate designing of chimneys utilized for pollutants, utilization of filters to decrease pollution in the flares of industrial chimneys, Siting the approved or correct industrial development, with due attention to the direction of wind in the region, sanitary burial of wastes, controlling the infiltration of pollutants into the surface waters and the utilization of sensing equipment, in regards the leakage of pipes. The monitoring program taking into consideration the South Pars region comprises of: Survey of the quality of water resources by sampling and testing the specifications under view, topographical and landform monitoring, in order to control and regulate development procedures, measuring and monitoring sound level.

The main goal of this study was to define the size at first reproduction of colonies of the precious red coral Corallium rubrum (L.) and determine their age, thanks to a new reliable method. Sampled colonies come from two sites at 40 m depth on the French Mediterranean coast near Marseilles. Furthermore, we report trends in reproduction parameters in relation to colony size. The smallest fertile colonies (<30 mm height class) were on an average 24.0 mm in height and 3.6 mm in basal diameter: these colonies were on an average between 7 and 10 years. The reproductive effort, i.e., percentage of gravid polyps per colony, was higher in large (>50 mm in height) and medium size colonies (30-50 mm) than in small ones (<30 mm). Our results indicate that management strategies for the conservation of red coral should lead to increase the abundance of large colonies to guarantee a good reproduction output.

Its population worldwide exceeds 700 million individuals, occupying practically all geographic regions and ecosystems of the planet, including many of the areas dedicated to nature conservation. Due to this, it has been considered one of the most important invasive species worldwide. This chapter includes data obtained through wildlife monitoring by means of photograph trap cameras in six artificial ponds implemented in a protected natural high mountain area of central Mexico. The data found show that Canis familiaris is the most frequently registered animal species, both in sites with artificial ponds and in places where there were no ponds. Artificial ponds favor the presence of species such as the raccoon (Procyon lotor), but also favor the presence of dogs (Canis familiaris), inhibiting the presence of native carnivores such as coyote (Canis latrans). Additionally, there seems to be a spatial and temporal displacement of wildlife activities in response to the high incidence of C. familiaris. Due to the high incidence of dogs, it is urgently recommended to establish a program of control and management of its population in this and other protected natural areas, which guarantees the objectives for which these areas were established: the protection of biodiversity and wildlife. © 2021 John Wiley and Sons Ltd.",,257-269,,,,,,,,,,,wiley,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Invasive Alien Species: Observations and Issues from Around the World DOI: 10.1002/9781119607045.ch45,,,,natural protected areas; photograph trap cameras; wildlife monitoring,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Impact studies should therefore be performed at the local or at most at the regional level. In order to provide regionally-specific information that can assist coastal communities in planning adaptation measures to the effects of climate change, a Regional Risk Assessment (RRA) methodology was developed. The main aim of the RRA is to evaluate and rank the potential impacts, vulnerabilities and risks of climatic changes on coastal systems. Moreover the methodology allow the identification of key vulnerable receptors in the considered region and of homogeneous vulnerable and risk areas, that can be considered as homogeneous geographic sites for the definition of adaptation and management strategies. For these purposes, the RRA integrates numerical models output for the construction of future climate change scenarios and considers bio-physical and socioeconomic vulnerability indicators/indexes. In order to analyse impacts at the regional spatial scale, the RRA employ downscaled climate, circulation and morphodynamic models for the analysis of inundation, storm surge and coastal erosion processes, and apply a suite of biogeochemical, trophic and fate and transport models, in order to assess climate change impacts on water quality. Moreover it includes the analysis of site-specific physical, ecological and socio-economic characteristics of the territory (e.g. coastal topography, geomorphology, presence and distribution of vegetation cover, location of artificial protection) and of local vulnerable receptors (e.g. beaches and dunes, wetlands, protected areas). Within the Euro-Mediterranean Centre for Climate Change (CMCC, www.cmcc.it) the RRA methodology will be applied to the coasts of the North Adriatic Sea in Italy. The main output will include relative risk/vulnerability GIS maps that will be used to establish relative priorities for intervention and to support coastal authorities in the implementation of sustainable planning and management processes. The downscaled approach employed for the development of regional climate change scenarios and of regional vulnerability, impact and risk indicators/indexes is here presented and discussed.",,91-102,,,1,,,,,,,,Middle East Technical University,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Proc.

There are ten MU-CMPAs areas in Chile, but their implementation has been slow and 14 years after the first areas were legally declared, some of them still do not have management plans. Here we analyze the experiences of Isla Grande de Atacama MU-CMPA (MU-CMPA IGA) in the north of Chile, including the complexities of implementing PMPs and the challenges and opportunities of generating an ecosystem perspective in the management plans for protected areas. Administrative problems and conflicts of interest have worn social relationships generating little community participation regarding the design of a management plan. Nevertheless, there is a consensus among local social actors about the benefits of the ecosystems of the MU-CMPA IGA due to the high economic and social values given by the community to the services provided by the area. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019.

Objective: To analyze for the first time the mitochondria! gene cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) of G. adustus' population from Isla del Coco and compare it with those of continental coast of Costa Rica and Ecuador. Methods: We constructed a haplotype network for these samples. Genetic diversity, distance and structure were calculated by several software. The historical demography of Isla del Coco samples was assessed with the method Bayesian skyline plot as implemented in BEAST2. Results: The samples segregate into three haplogroups: one consisting of the Isla del Coco samples, a second consisting of a subset of the Ecuador samples, and a third consisting of Costa Rica and the remaining Ecuador samples. The genetic distances between the three haplogroups range between 1.6% and 2.1% (uncorrected p-distance), and pairwise Phi ST and AMOVA results between the three haplogroups show high and significant values. Conclusions: The Isla del Coco haplogroup showed a Pleistocene population growth, which agrees with demographic patterns found in other marine organisms.

Historically, their planning and implementation have focused on ecological data ignoring values, attitudes, behaviors, and institutions of the people living in the PA, thus inhibiting its long-term effectiveness. Here, we review three social disciplines that might enhance the understanding of the social sphere around PAs: conservation psychology (CP), social-ecological system framework (SESF), and conservation marketing (CM). CP is crucial to understand human behavior toward nature or conservation. We present different tools for evaluating values, attitudes, and behaviors that are relevant for understanding conservation outcomes. SESF allows to systematically map and diagnose the pattern of interactions of relevant variables in search of factors that can be promoted or restricted to enable the involvement of local people in the planning and implementation of conservation programs and instruments. Finally, CM allows us to modulate and design conservation programs with specific end-state behaviors and target audiences to improve the success of the conservation actions.

Emirates Wildlife Society-World Wide Fund for Nature in collaboration with the Fujairah Municipality initiated a project to declare the whole catchment basin as officially protected with the aims to help establish a sustainable protected area integrating local tradition and lifestyle with the conservation of inimitable biodiversity and habitat by providing a model of unique economical incentives to the region. Over 300 species of plants grow in the area, including the country's unique orchid, Epipactis veratrifolia, as well as wetland species. Twelve species of mammals were observed, including the Arabian Tahr, Mountain Gazelle, Blanford's Fox and, possibly, Arabian Leopard, all considered Threatened by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). So far, 74 species of bird (of which 25% are considered of national conservation interest) have been recorded, including the Bonelli's Eagle, Barbary Falcon, Asian Houbara Bustard and probably Hume's Tawny Owl. The wadi hosts thirteen reptile and amphibian species of which five are endemic to UAE and northern Oman mountains: Blue-tailed Lizard, Jayakar's Oman Lizard, Bar-tailed Semaphore Gecko, Banded Ground Gecko, and Oman Carpet Viper. Endemic to the Arabian Peninsula and considered endangered by IUCN, the Garra fish is found in the wadi. The collection of insect samples revealed 74 invertebrate families, including 19 arthropod species new to science. So far, 29 heritage sites have been recorded and mapped, including bedu setdements, ancient Islamic graveyards, pre-Islamic tombs, 15th to 18th centuries AD porcelain and pottery fragments and one petroglyph (rock carving) site.

Satellite images provide a synoptic view of land cover patterns, but the use of such imagery requires careful consideration of sensor type, resolution, extent, and the metrics used to quantify ecologically significant change. We examined these factors for landscape monitoring applications in four small National Parks near Washington, DC: Antietam National Battlefield, Catoctin Mountain Park, Prince William Forest Park and Rock Creek Park. Using 4 m Ikonos, 10 m SPOT, 15 m pan-sharpened Landsat ETM+ and 30 m Landsat ETM+ imagery, the parks and surrounding areas were mapped to National Land Cover system classes. For each park, we examined four methods for defining map extent, including park administrative boundaries, two variable buffer widths, and watershed boundaries, and then analyzed patterns of forest habitat for the maps using a graph theoretic approach (critical dispersal threshold distance) and common landscape metrics (number of patches, percent forest, forest edge density, and forest area-weighted mean patch size). As expected, landscape metrics for maps derived at differing resolutions varied significantly, but map extent often yielded even larger differences. We found that for most applications, coarser scale data (e.g., 30 m Landsat) are adequate for characterizing landscape pattern, although ultimately data from multiple sensors may be appropriate or necessary based on different objectives of landscape monitoring (e.g., mapping single trees vs. forest stands) and the scale at which a resource of interest interacts with the larger landscape (e.g., birds vs. herptiles). Our results provide a strong caution regarding the practical issues associated with combining data sources from multiple satellite sensors for monitoring applications. © 2009 Elsevier Inc.",,1410-1420,,7,113,,Remote Sens.

In all four cases, positive changes in local coastal ecosystems were found, including an increase in local biodiversity, improvement in water quality, and restoration of ecosystems. There were also significant socioeconomic outcomes such as involvement of wider stakeholders, mainstreaming of biodiversity, and promotion of local products and tourism. Also, by comparing the four cases, some key characteristics of satoumi that contribute to management effectiveness were identified.

The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List provides an accepted, objective framework for the assessment of extinction risk. Assessments based on data collected in the field are the best option, but the field data to base these on are often limited. Information collected through remote sensing can be used in place of field data to inform assessments. Forests are perhaps the best-studied land-cover type for use of remote-sensing data. Using an open-access 30-m resolution map of tree cover and its change between 2000 and 2012, we assessed the extent of forest cover and loss within the distributions of 11,186 forest-dependent amphibians, birds, and mammals worldwide. For 16 species, forest loss resulted in an elevated extinction risk under red-list criterion A, owing to inferred rapid population declines. This number increased to 23 when data-deficient species (i.e., those with insufficient information for evaluation) were included. Under red-list criterion B2, 484 species (855 when data-deficient species were included) were considered at elevated extinction risk, owing to restricted areas of occupancy resulting from little forest cover remaining within their ranges. The proportion of species of conservation concern would increase by 32.8% for amphibians, 15.1% for birds, and 24.7% for mammals if our suggested uplistings are accepted. Central America, the Northern Andes, Madagascar, the Eastern Arc forests in Africa, and the islands of Southeast Asia are hotspots for these species. Our results illustrate the utility of satellite imagery for global extinction-risk assessment and measurement of progress toward international environmental agreement targets. Hacia la Cuantificacion del Impacto de la Deforestacion del Siglo XXI sobre el Riesgo de Extincion de los Vertebrados Terrestres Las acciones de conservacion necesitan ser priorizadas, considerando con frecuencia el riesgo de extincion de las especies. La Lista Roja de la Union Internacional para la Conservacion de la Naturaleza (UICN) proporciona un marco de trabajo objetivo y aceptado para la valoracion del riesgo de extincion. Las valoraciones basadas en los datos colectados en el campo son la mejor opcion, pero los datos de campo sobre los cuales basar las valoraciones con frecuencia son limitados. Los datos colectados por medio de la teledeteccion pueden usarse en lugar de los datos de campo para informar a las valoraciones. Los bosques tal vez sean el tipo de cubierta de suelo mejor estudiado para el uso de datos de teledeteccion. Con un mapa de acceso abierto y resolucion de 30-m de la cobertura de arboles y su cambio entre 2000 y 2012, valoramos la extension de la cobertura de bosque y la perdida dentro de las distribuciones de 11, 186 especies de anfibios, aves y mamiferos dependientes del bosque a nivel mundial. Para 16 especies, la perdida del bosque resulto en un riesgo de extincion elevado, bajo el criterio A de la lista roja, debido a las declinaciones rapidas de poblacion inferidas. Este numero incremento a 23 cuando las especies con deficiencia de datos (es decir, aquellas con informacion insuficiente para su evaluacion) fueron incluidas. Bajo el criterio B2 de la lista roja, 484 especies (855 cuando se incluyeron las especies con deficiencia de datos) se consideraron con riesgo alto de extincion, debido a las areas restringidas de ocupacion como resultado de la pequena cobertura del bosque que permanece dentro de su distribucion.

The freshwater phases of shad life cycles have been extensively studied, but the marine phases remain poorly understood. The present study aimed to provide new insights into shad ecology by describing the marine distributions of twaite and allis shad using a presence/absence model based on bycatch data from commercial fishery surveys. Depth and salinity were identified as the main factors influencing shad distribution. Both species were primarily located in shallow areas, at depths of between 0 and 100 m. As expected for anadromous species, low-salinity areas were preferred. Substrate and latitude played minor roles in the observed distribution of shad. Our results suggest that latitudinal migration between winter and summer habitats does not occur in twaite and allis shad populations. Furthermore, substrate does not appear to be a key factor contributing to shad distribution. A better understanding of the distribution of shad species throughout their life cycles, particularly in the open sea where they are vulnerable to bycatch, would help in the selection of key protected areas for the sustainability of shad populations. © Inter-Research 2014.",,181-192,,,511,,Mar.

Consolidating and expanding protection of Indonesia's marine resources is critical with increasing pressure from a fast-expanding population, illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing, pollution, coastal development, unsustainable tourism and climate change. Biodiversity conservation must therefore concurrently consider multiple economic sectors such as fisheries and tourism, and their synergies with MPA management. This paper aims to outline the current landscape of fisheries and marine tourism pertaining to area-based conservation in Indonesia, to inform and support improved integration into effective MPA management. Four areas to focus efforts were identified: diversification of governance types of community-based management, improved coordination between fisheries and MPAs during planning and management implementation, the development and support of pathways for sustainable tourism, and planning for future conditions. Sustainable development for fisheries and tourism must be incorporated into all aspects of MPA management, whilst recognising that current management systems are insufficient to ensure long-term sustainability for natural resources and local communities, and strategies need to increase resilience of social-ecological systems in anticipation of future conditions. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,146,,Mar.

Major differences reflect differing interpretations of the Convention's primary objective: the conservation of marine living resources, where conservation includes rational use. The best available science historically informed decisions, but policy objectives are increasingly coming to the fore. Resolving how scientific evidence is used in decision-making is essential, given this has consequences for all management topics. In the southwest Atlantic, scientific evidence and how it is used is central to the controlled development of the Antarctic krill fishery. Much work has already been undertaken to allow catches to increase, but more is needed, including ensuring that, as yet untested, management procedures work as intended. Precautionary development should therefore now focus upon ensuring ecosystem resilience is not compromised. Generally, the area managed by CCAMLR experiences relatively light human pressures, yet with newly proposed krill catch limits, this is set to change. Before catches increase, appropriate ecosystem monitoring is needed, and spatial management tools agreed to ensure that biodiversity is adequately maintained, especially given regional climate change. Without such constraints, the krill fishery should not expand. An integrated programme could help CCAMLR adapt. In implementing this, CCAMLR should focus upon areas where economic interests are most intense, that is, over shelf areas and areas of elevated bathymetry. Large-scale remote areas with little economic interest should be set aside as closed areas, until such future time that CCAMLR has agreed appropriate ecological impact assessments and monitoring for these largely unexploited areas. © 2023 The Authors",,,,,155,,Mar.

Disease management along the boundaries of wildlife reserves is a growing conservation problem worldwide, as infected wildlife can migrate outside protected areas and pose a threat to livestock and human health. The bison Bison bison population in Yellowstone National Park has long been infected with Brucella abortus, but culling of Yellowstone bison to prevent transmission to cattle has been ineffective at reducing brucellosis infection. This management strategy is negatively affecting long-term bison conservation because of difficulties in diagnosing actively infected animals. 2. We integrated age-specific serology and B. abortus culture results from slaughtered Yellowstone bison to estimate probabilities of active brucellosis infection using a Bayesian framework. Infection probabilities were associated with age in young bison (0-5years old) and with elevated antibody levels in older bison (>5years old). Our results indicate that Yellowstone bison acquire B. abortus infection early in life but typically recover as they grow older. 3.A tool was developed to allow bison management to better reflect the probability that particular animals are infective, with the aim of conserving Yellowstone bison while reducing the risk of brucellosis transmission to cattle. Combining selective removal of infectious bison with additional management practices, such as vaccination, has the potential to advance an effective brucellosis reduction programme. 4. Synthesis and applications. We conclude that active B. abortus infection in Yellowstone bison is age dependent, which allows true infection probabilities to be estimated based on age and quantitative diagnostic tests. These findings have important application to disease management worldwide where accurate diagnostic tests for wildlife are unavailable. Estimation of true infection probabilities can replace culling practices that conflict with wildlife conservation. The ability to identify infective individuals can improve management practices that support conservation, particularly when human health is at risk or endangered wildlife species are involved. © 2011 The Authors.

This is particularly true for the open oceans, where few protected areas currently exist and data availability is limited. Here, we examine the relationship between the distributions of tuna and billfish species richness (an indicator of pelagic biodiversity), the human impact drivers of fishing pressure (quantified as cumulative removals) and sea surface temperature increase (quantified as the increase in large positive anomalies) in tropical to temperate oceans at the scale of a 5° × 5° grid. We investigate relationships using Generalised Additive Models and Regression Tree analysis, and identify the top 50 "" hotspot"" cells for species richness and each of the two impact drivers. We find that both impact drivers significantly overlap with high species richness, but relationships are complex, non-linear and ocean-basin specific. Higher fishing pressure is associated with higher species richness in the Indian and Pacific Oceans, and this overlap is particularly prominent in the central Pacific, and in the Indian Ocean around Sri Lanka. In the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, species richness is generally higher in areas that have seen lower levels of change in sea surface temperature and only one cell, near Easter Island, is a hotspot for species richness and sea surface temperature increase. While species richness and impact drivers overlap in some areas, there are many areas with high species richness and limited apparent impact. This suggests that area-based conservation strategies that aim to protect areas of high pelagic biodiversity may be achievable with limited displacement of fishing effort. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,1758-1766,,5,144,,Biol.

To ensure sustainable fisheries, a primary goal of science-based fisheries policy is to provide an adequate conservation status of marine habitats that are directly, or indirectly, fundamental for the lifecycle of fish populations of commercial interest. The National Park of Banc d'Arguin has been recognized for its nursery and fish biomass export functions. In this paper, we present the economic value of the fish provisioning service of marine coastal ecosystems of the protected area. We estimated the added value of artisanal fisheries, the spatial distribution of fishing activities, the contribution of the Park to the Mauritanian fisheries and the heritage value of artisanal fisheries. Overall, the average added value for artisanal fisheries is about 43 million MRU (1 million euros) over the period 2006–2017. It mainly benefits to the ship-owners, which generates inequalities and threatens the livelihoods of the Imraguen. The spatial distribution of fishing activities and associated revenues shows high variability throughout the years, the seasons and the geographic areas, and reveals the high adaptability of Imraguen fishers. Fishing grounds are mostly located close to the shore, associated with seagrass beds, confirming the service of fish provisioning rendered by this ecosystem. Furthermore, the high productivity of seagrass beds contributes to the spill-over of biomass. The contribution of the Park to fishing activities that occur within the Mauritanian Exclusive Economic Zone is estimated to 15%, representing an added value creation of 3.2 billion MRU (71 million euros). The heritage value of the fisheries is assessed, through fishers' willingness to accept to stop their fishing activities, at 17.5 million MRU (0.4 million euros). Thus, this paper highlights the necessity of incorporating an ecosystem-based approach along with fishers' knowledge and adaptability into future conservation plan of the National Park of Banc d'Arguin and fisheries management at the local, national and regional scale. © 2020 Shanghai Ocean University",,253-264,,5,5,,Aquac.

The study of marine predators by means of recorders has allowed us to shed light on a certain number of processes of remarkable behavioral and physiological adaptation. The presence of sensors attached to animals has given us the idea of using these animals as oceanographic platforms. Bio-logging research can then reveal association patterns and the mechanisms affecting the spatial distribution of animals in the marine environment. It has given rise to significant progress in terms of understanding interactions with fisheries. Understanding the movements of individual animals at sea also allows us to better assess conservation priorities. This is how the implementation of marine protected areas (MPA) can take into account information provided by bio-logging to define which significant areas need to be conserved. © ISTE Ltd 2016.,,143-173,,,,,,,,,,,wiley,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Tools for Oceanography and Ecosystemic Modeling DOI: 10.1002/9781119330226.ch5,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In Indonesia, the acknowledgement of customary law is clearly written in a decree formulated by the national government. However, our understanding of how customary law supports, interacts with, and complements conservation remains limited. Here, we explore the role of customary law in helping MPAs achieve their goals in Indonesia. We characterise how customary and formal regulatory conservation management intertwine when local communities manage their natural resources. We studied two MPAs located in the west (Sabang Island) and east (Nusa Penida Island) of Indonesia. There, we gathered both quantitative and qualitative data from a total of 360 respondents using questionnaires, in-depth interviews, and focus group discussions to investigate community knowledge of and perspectives on customary or adat law, the history of adat law and how it is currently applied, and the practise of both adat and formal regulatory conservation management. Our analysis assessed quantitative data using statistical analysis in R, and qualitative data with thematic analysis in NVivo. Most of our respondents were positive about the application of adat law to manage and protect the environment, thus customary law was found to be effective in supporting the goals of MPAs. However, our findings suggest that the full integration of customary law and formal regulatory conservation management can be difficult to achieve, as they rely on different principles for deciding policy and implementing sanctions.

Population connectivity is key to establish transboundary collaborative actions. In this study, we assessed genetic diversity and connectivity of mangrove populations in a proposed transboundary conservation area (TBCA) between Kenya and Tanzania, where human demography exerts increasing pressure on biodiversity and ecosystem services. East African mangrove ecosystems comprise a complex pattern of estuaries and coastal bays, with Avicennia marina as a major mangrove component. Our main objective was to test a hypothesis of overall migration directionality reflecting regional ocean surface current flows. Fourteen microsatellite markers in 670 A. marina trees revealed no overall significant difference in allele or gene diversity levels between populations but showed an overall effect of geographic distance with a gradient of admixed gene pools. Migration tests and Approximate Bayesian computations supported a customized stepping-stone model of overall south to north migration with bidirectional gene flow and admixture between adjacent bays near the Kenya-Tanzania border. Observed patterns of gene flow suggest an important effect of large rivers and connections via creeks. Our results indicate that relevance for conservation and management of mangroves areas may remain largely within a hydrological connectivity context of each bay, despite prevailing genetic estimates reflecting historically well-connected mangroves between bays. For sustainable management, populations must be considered complementary and not redundant. Hence, transboundary regions must primarily adhere to local contemporary conservation and management, and not solely rely on the assumption of strong regional connectivity built historically. © 2021 The Author(s)",,,,,256,,Biol.

Ukraine has declared its aspiration to integrate into the European Union and must back up its statements with action and do everything to achieve such ambitious conservation goals. Like many European countries, Ukraine faces great challenges on this route. The significant level of anthropogenic transformation of the territories makes it very difficult to find new areas to expand the boundaries of the nature reserve fund. The practical steps to create nature reserves are significantly limited by legal mechanisms that guarantee land users' ownership of the relevant land plots. An important task in nature conservation is to develop indicators that can clearly and easily demonstrate the importance of areas for conservation. Such tools are necessary to convince policy makers and land users of the need to protect the relevant areas. The indicators of importance for biodiversity conservation should be scale-independent, as both large areas and small areas are important for conservation. In this article, we consider the case of a project to expand the boundaries of the Dnipro-Orylskiy Nature Reserve by adding five areas directly adjacent to it. The number of species included in the various Red Data Lists was chosen as an indicator of the conservation value of the territory. The species-area relationship was used to assess the role of scale. The number of species on the Red Lists was considered instead of the classical relationship that considers the total number of species in a community. The normalised deviation from the regression relationship was considered as an indicator of the conservation value of the respective area, which is statistically independent of the area of the site. The different Red Lists are compiled according to different criteria, so the indicator of conservation value for each Red List focuses on the relevant conservation aspect. The results of the conservation value assessment can be presented graphically, which clearly demonstrates the role of the respective areas in the maintenance of biological diversity. The proposed algorithm for assessing conservation value can be applied to a wide range of environmental protection tasks. In terms of further research, it is important to assess the role of ecosystem function assessment in the design of protected areas. © 2023 Oles Honchar Dnipro National University.

In both the rural and urban environments, the presence of wildlife attractive sources in the airport surroundings increases the risk of collision between a wild animal and an aircraft, named ‘Wildlife Strike’. The main objective of this study involved the acquisition of basic knowledge useful to control this risk around airports in different seasons. To this aim, supervised classification of open-source remote sensing imagery made available within the ESA Copernicus program was considered as an easy and low-cost solution to the problem of information updating. The integration of this information into a GIS allowed localisation of vegetation and water surfaces bodies in relation to airport ‘Obstacle Limitation Surfaces’ (OLS), ‘Rete Natura 2000’ (SIC/ZSC and ZPS) areas, and the ‘Important Bird Areas’ (IBA) that play a key role in birdlife protection. The case study was related to the 13-km territorial area surrounding the airport of Catania, Italy. In detail, the vegetation coverage was found to increase to about 40% of the total investigated area from summer to early spring. The monitoring of these attractive sources for wildlife, in different seasons of the year made it possible to obtain information about the periods in which it is most useful to reduce the risk. Further geostatistical analyses of kernel density performed by using GIS tools have defined the areas of greatest importance in relation to the weight of their suitability and proximity to the airport considered. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,1247-1255,,,337 LNCE,,,,,,,,Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Lect.

These species make substantial contributions to ecosystem functioning, and are targets of conservation policy. Here we adopt an integrated approach, combining information on the rarity of species trait combinations, and their spatial restrictedness, to quantify the biogeography of rare fish (a taxon with almost 13,000 species) in the world’s oceans. We find concentrations of rarity, in excess of what is predicted by a null expectation, near the coasts and at higher latitudes. We also observe mismatches between these rarity hotspots and marine protected areas. This pattern is repeated for both major groupings of fish, the Actinopterygii (bony fish) and Elasmobranchii (sharks, skates and rays). These results uncover global patterns of rarity that were not apparent from earlier work, and highlight the importance of using metrics that incorporate information on functional traits in the conservation and management of global marine fishes. © 2022, The Author(s).",,,,1,13,,Nat.

From 1986, the Diama dam has stopped any backflow of salt water from the sea into most of the delta, and retains a large volume of fresh water which can be released into initially naturally flooded, but now embanked, areas, including the National Parks of Djoudj (Senegal) and Diawling (Mauritania) and other lowlands often used for agriculture, mainly rice-fields. Landscapes have been deeply modified (vegetation overgrowing in wetlands, desertification process around), sometimes in a provisionally positive way (creation or development of flooded areas through irrigation or hunting management). The Anatidae overwintering in the delta have been censused since 1972: we analyse these census data, with emphasis on the periods 1972-1976 and 1989-1996 (when census methodology and coverage were similar), in order to define how Anatidae have adapted to the new environmental conditions. Three Afrotropical and two Palearctic species are holding on, in spite of marked yearly variations and sometimes a loss of habitat quality (Fulvous Whistling Duck Dendrocygna bicolor, White-faced Whistling Duck D. viduata, Egyptian Goose Alopochen aegyptiacus, Northern Pintail Anas acuta, Garganey A. querquedula), two Palearctic species showed significant but not fully explained changes in numbers (Northern Shoveler Anas clypeata increasing, Common Teal A. crecca almost disappearing), and numbers of two Afrotropical species decreased following the environmental modifications (Spurwinged Goose Plectropterus gambensis, and Comb Duck Sarkidiornis melanotos even more markedly). In order to maintain or develop conditions favourable to these bird populations, it is necessary to supply the managers of protected areas with the resources needed to implement this aim. Also, the whole lower valley of the Senegal River (including the Lake of Aleg in Mauritania) must be taken into account in conservation measures, including non-protected areas potentially favourable to waterfowl.

The impacts of the establishment of this protected area on the local monk seal population have been thoroughly documented for the last 20 y; in contrast, little is known of the socioeconomic impacts from the establishment of the park on the residents of the island of Alonissos. The aim of this study was to record, using a methodological approach based on Social Impact Assessment, the attitudes of residents and visitors of Alonissos and to assess the social and economic impacts generated by the establishment and management of the NMPANS. The majority of the residents of Alonissos acknowledged the importance of the marine park in promoting the public image of the island, a fact they believed had not yet resulted in major improvements to their livelihood. They believed that the establishment of the park had led to considerable economic losses to the local fishing industry and expressed concerns on the effects of the park on the local human social structure and traditions. Positive effects were detected primarily from the tourism sector. Visitors to Alonissos valued the area for its natural beauty but were disappointed by the lack of coordinated effort to promote these natural resources. Based on the findings of this study, we conclude that the NMPANS has been generally successful in meeting its biodiversity goals but considerably less effective in attaining basic measures of socioeconomic success.

With an increase in drier periods predicted across Africa due to climate change, it is critically important to understand how elephants physiologically respond to alterations in the availability and distribution of resources. Aims: We assessed variation in the adrenal activity of elephants living in Kenya's Tsavo East National Park between wet and dry seasons, as well as among individuals found in Tsavo East National Park and privately protected Rukinga Wildlife Sanctuary (part of the Kasigau REDD+ wildlife corridor) in the dry season, when the area experiences an influx of elephants in search of alternative resources. Methods: We opportunistically collected fresh elephant faecal samples across the two seasons and locations for analysis of faecal glucocorticoid metabolite (fGCM, a proxy for stress) and nitrogen (Nf, an indirect measure of diet quality) concentrations. The Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) was employed as an additional indicator of habitat quality. Key results: In Tsavo East N.P. Nf and NDVI were both significantly lower during the dry season, indicating poorer habitat quality compared with the wet season. Although elephant fGCM concentrations tended to be higher in the dry season than the wet, the differences were not significant. There was no difference between elephant fGCMs measured in Tsavo East N.P. and Rukinga W.S. during the dry season, nor in habitat quality between the two locations. Conclusions: Elephants living in Tsavo may be physiologically unaffected by (or adapt to) typical seasonal changes in habitat quality that could lead to nutritional stress; however, whether this is the case during extended periods of severe drought requires further investigation. Rukinga W.S. provides a safe haven of sufficient habitat quality for elephants searching for alternative resources during this period. Implications: Extended dry periods are likely to become increasingly common in semiarid savannahs, and implications for wildlife must be closely monitored. Privately protected land outside formally protected areas plays an important role in conservation efforts, which should be considered when making land management plans.  © 2022 The Author(s).

In coastal areas, marine mammals face numerous anthropogenic threats such as marine traffic and commercial fishing. The objective of this study was to investigate marine mammal stranding records from the St. Lawrence Estuary (SLE) and the northwestern Gulf of St. Lawrence (NWGSL), Quebec, Canada from 1994 to 2008 for evidence of anthropogenic trauma caused by entanglement in fishing gear, ship collisions and gunshots. Of 1,590 marine mammal stranding records, 12% (n = 192) had evidence of anthropogenic trauma, most incidents being reported during summer when activities such as marine traffic, most commercial fishing and recreational boating, occurred and a greater number of species were present in the area. These incidents were classified into five categories (Incidental catch, Ship collision, Severe injury, Gunshot, Other). There were 1,245 mortalities and observations on carcasses suggested that anthropogenic trauma led to the death of 11% (141/1,245) of marine mammals: 14% (87/627) of cetaceans and 9% (54/618) of seals. Mortality of seals due to anthropogenic trauma was low, involving mainly Gunshot for grey (26% or 8/31) and harbour seals (26% or 8/31). Over the study period, marine mammal incidents with evidence of anthropogenic trauma increased significantly, driven by an increase in Incidental catch for two mysticete species, the common minke whale, 42% (39/92) and humpback whale, 13% (12/92) and Other for harbour porpoise 67% (16/24). Ship collision was the most common anthropogenic trauma for fin whales (22% or 8/36) and SLE beluga5 (22% or 8/36). Severe injury was reported for 22% (2/9) of small cetaceans and 78% (7/9) of seals. Evidence from some harbour porpoise stranding records (categorised as Other) suggests illegal hunting, incidental catch, predation or scavenging by grey seals in a marine protected area. The observed increase in Incidental catch of common minke and humpback whales may be due to: (1) a shift in distribution of these two species into the SLE and NWGSL, possibly related to changes in the ecosystem; (2) changes in fishery practices; and (3) an increase in detection of marine mammal strandings. Anthropogenic trauma affecting marine mammals was documented including some species at risk, such as the harbour porpoise, the St. Lawrence Estuary beluga population, blue and North Atlantic right whales, in the St. Lawrence ecosystem including in a marine protected area.

Long-range autonomous underwater vehicles equipped with autonomous environmental sample processors (LRAUV-ESPs) provide a new means for scaling up marine eDNA sample collection and processing. Here, we used eDNA metabarcoding of four marker genes (mitochondrial 12S rRNA, bacterial and archaeal 16S rRNA, nuclear 18S rRNA, and mitochondrial COI), which encompass the diversity of marine species from microbes to vertebrates, to demonstrate the efficacy of an LRAUV-ESP in sampling eDNA and assessing community structure in the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary.

One case of rapid coral deterioration is occurring in the Corals of Rosario and San Bernardo National Natural Park, located in the Colombian Caribbean Sea. This Park, a marine protected area, is subject to sedimentation from the Canal del Dique, which threatens the survival of the Park's coral reefs and, with it, some tourist activities.

This study aims to estimate recreational divers' willingness to pay for the conservation of the coral reefs in the Corals of Rosario and San Bernardo National Natural Park. For this purpose, both single-bounded and double-bounded dichotomous choice models were used. The results show that divers are willing to pay an average of US$89.56 per person. The total benefit to the coral reefs is US$376,152 per year. Using a discounted rate of 3%, the present value of this benefit is US$ 12.54 million.

Results of that work include: (1) collecting five new cave-obligate species (troglobionts) from CUGA caves, increasing the number of troglobionts known from CUGA from 11 to 16; (2) increasing the total records of troglobionts in CUGA caves from 17 to 39; (3) finding an undescribed isopod (now described as Lirceus zigleri) in the Gap Cave stream; (4) noting six species of bats, including two federally endangered species—Indiana bats (Myotis sodalis) and northern long-eared bats (Myotis septentrion-alis)—from CUGA caves; and (5) recognizing that Gap Cave once hosted one of the largest known populations of Indiana bats in Virginia.

Trials from areas with high incidence rates for infectious diseases indicated that the tuberculosis vaccine Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) induces in addition non-specific immunity against various pathogens and thereby reduces overall mortality more than would have been expected by just protecting from tuberculosis. Although recent trials produced conflicting results, it was suggested that BCG might protect from non-tuberculosis respiratory infections and could be used to bridge the time until a specific vaccine against novel respiratory diseases like COVID-19 is available. Methods: We performed a systematic search for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published between 2011 and December 9th, 2022, providing evidence about non-specific effects after BCG vaccination, assessed their potential for bias, and meta-analyzed relevant clinical outcomes. We excluded RCTs investigating vaccination with an additional vaccine unless outcomes from a follow-up period before the second vaccination were reported. Results: Our search identified 16 RCTs including 34,197 participants. Vaccination with BCG caused an estimated 44% decrease in risk for respiratory infections (hazard ratio (HR) 0.56, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.39–0.82) with substantial heterogeneity between trials (I2 = 77%). There was evidence for a protective effect on all-cause mortality of 21% if follow-up was restricted to one year (HR 0.79, 95% CI 0.64–0.99). We did not find evidence for an effect when we considered longer follow-up (HR 0.88, 95% CI 0.75–1.03). Infection-related mortality after BCG vaccination was reduced by 33% (HR 0.67; 95% CI 0.46–0.99), mortality for sepsis by 38% (HR 0.62, 95% CI 0.41–0.93). There was no evidence for a protective effect of BCG vaccination on infections of any origin (HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.71–1.00), COVID-19 (HR 0.88, 95% CI 0.68–1.14), sepsis (HR 0.78, 95% CI 0.55–1.10) or hospitalization (HR 1.01, 95% CI 0.91–1.11). Conclusions: According to these results, depending on the setting, vaccination with BCG provides time-limited partial protection against non-tuberculosis respiratory infections and may reduce mortality. These findings underline BCG’s potential (1) in pandemic preparedness against novel pathogens especially in developing countries with established BCG vaccination programs but limited access to specific vaccines; (2) in reducing microbial infections, antimicrobial prescriptions and thus the development of antimicrobial resistance. There is a need for additional RCTs to clarify the circumstances under which BCG’s non-specific protective effects are mediated. © 2023 by the authors.",,,,1,11,,Vaccines,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI,,,,all cause mortality; antibiotic resistance; BCG; BCG vaccination; BCG VACCINATION; BCG vaccine; BIRTH; bladder cancer; clinical outcome; coinfection; COVID-19; data analysis; EARLY-CHILDHOOD INFECTIONS; FOLLOW-UP; GUINEA-BISSAU; health program; health status; hospitalization; human; immune response; immunity; immunization; intention to treat analysis; meta analysis; mortality; MORTALITY; Mycobacterium bovis BCG; non-specific effects; outcome assessment; pandemic preparedness; randomized controlled trial (topic); respiratory infection; respiratory tract infection; revaccination; REVACCINATION; Review; risk assessment; sensitivity analysis; sepsis; systematic review; trained immunity; tuberculosis; vaccination; vaccine,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Payment for ecosystem services (PES) programs that encourage afforestation on farmlands may be important drivers of land-cover and land-use change in the region that surrounds FNNR. Our objective is to monitor and examine vegetation and land-use changes, including PES-related afforestation, between 1989 and 2017. We utilize several image processing techniques, such as illumination normalization approaches to suppress terrain effects, and multi-seasonal image compositing to minimize persistent cloud cover. Ancillary data were also incorporated to generate reliable vegetation and land-use change information. A random forest machine learning image classification routine is implemented through the cloud-based Google Earth Engine platform and refined using optimal classifier parameter tuning. Land-use transitions are identified and mapped with the implementation of stable training sites, discrete image classification, and logical land-use transition rules. Accuracy assessment results indicate our change detection workflow provides a reliable methodology to remotely monitor long-term forest cover and land-use changes in this mountainous, forested, and cloud prevalent region. We quantify the area of new built development and afforestation land and found that most of the land transitions took place in reserve buffer and its adjacent environs. For example, less than 2 km2 of new built was identified within the reserve boundary compared to 25 km2 for the entire study area between 1995 and 2016. We also shed light on the strengths and weaknesses of using Google Earth Engine for land-cover and land-use change studies. This efficient and open-access technique is important not only for assessing environmental changes and PES efficacy, but also for evaluating other conservation policies elsewhere. © 2019",,,,,111,,Appl.

Yet, systematic conservation planning has received little attention as a means to prioritize freshwater conservation areas. Here, we develop a comprehensive approach to spatially delineate key areas for freshwater conservation across Europe, considering directed-connectivity, climate change and human-related disturbances. We assess the adequacy of the current reserve network in protecting European freshwater ecosystems and provide guidelines for expansion. We conducted 13 prioritization scenarios for 18,300 sub-basins across Europe, accounting for the distribution of 1,668 freshwater species. Connectivity properties, metrics of climatic stability and human induced pressures were incorporated into the spatial prioritization framework. We highlight the critical importance of specific regions in Central and Southern Europe, the Mediterranean Basin, and parts of the Balkan Peninsula for future freshwater conservation efforts. However, our analysis also reveals the complete inadequacy of the current reserve network, as protected sub-basins only cover 4 % of the study area and encompass on average only 3 % of freshwater species distributions. In contrast, expanding current reserves to cover the top 17 % of high priority areas across Europe could substantially improve the overall coverage of species distributions, reaching an average of 61.5 % for all freshwater species and even exceeding 93.1 % for species of conservation interest (critically endangered, endangered and vulnerable species). The priority freshwater conservation network derived from the analysis provides specific spatial recommendations to help achieve conservation goals if the current reserve network is appropriately expanded. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,285,,Biol.

However, the methods used in these investigations remain not examined in detail. The compilation and evaluation of this information can be useful for researchers, managers and policy-makers. This study aimed to review the methods employed in recent inventories of bird species conducted in the Caatinga. Inventories (n = 51) published between 1990 and 2019 were examined. Inventories occurred in all states that harbor Caatinga environments. Those with larger sampling are spottily distributed. Major regions not or poorly sampled by recent avian inventories are located in southern Ceará, middle Piauí, western and eastern Bahia, and northern Minas Gerais states. Most inventories sampled communities only outside conservation units. Field activities involved up to eight years in a few inventories, but most studies sampled communities within 1–2 years. The majority of studies had field activities during both the rainy and dry periods. Most studies sampled avifauna for 12 or less months, and involved up to 80 days of fieldwork. Only 23% of the inventories provided a statistical estimation of species richness from samples. Binoculars, and bioacoustics equipments were more often used than mist-nets, scopes, and shotguns. Non-systematic search through walks was the technique most often adopted by observers. Birds collected by investigators were deposited in eleven Brazilian ornithological collections. Among suggestions for future inventories in the Caatinga are researchers providing detailed information on all aspects regarding field activities, and the comparison of the observed and estimated species richness. © 2021, Sociedade Brasileira de Ornitologia.",,195-208,,4,28,,Ornith.

Although it is a common practice, the impact of fire management on birds remains poorly investigated. This study aimed to examine the effects of fire management on nest-site selection by the Red-legged Seriema, Cariama cristata, and to describe nest-building characteristics at Parque Nacional das Emas (PNE). Nests were searched and monitored throughout 34 study sites between October and November 2006. These sites were 2.5-km strips of Campo Cerrado woodlands with (firebreaks) and without fire management, located at the interior and boundaries of the park. A total of 13 nests were found, all within firebreaks at the edge of the park. Nine (69%) of them were in fruiting Pouteria torta (Mart.) (Sapotaceae). Two or three white eggs were found in the nests. Nests had eggs and nestlings in October and no nestlings were found in November. Nests were usually in tree canopies and some of them were built nearly over the park's fence. At PNE, breeding pairs of C. cristata are attracted to firebreaks located at the park's boundaries. This is probably due to mobility through often burnt vegetation and ease in obtaining food from adjacent unsealed roads, exotic plantations and cleared areas. This study suggests that fire managers should: 1) avoid extinguishing natural fires initiated during the rainy season and 2) rotate controlled burning of patchy areas of Campo Cerrado woodlands. These two procedures should ensure the presence of suitable woodlands with short grasses in interior portions of PNE. © 2019, Sociedade Brasileira de Ornitologia.

Coarse habitat classifications are commonly used as surrogates to design marine reserve networks when fine-scale biodiversity data are incomplete or unavailable. Although finely-classified habitat maps provide more detail, they may have more misclassification errors, a common problem when remotely-sensed imagery is used. Despite these issues, planners rarely consider the effects of errors when choosing data for spatially explicit conservation prioritizations. Here we evaluate trade-offs between accuracy and resolution of hierarchical coral reef habitat data (geomorphology and benthic substrate) derived from remote sensing, in spatial planning for Kubulau District, Fiji. For both, we use accuracy information describing the probability that a mapped habitat classification is correct to design marine reserve networks that achieve habitat conservation targets, and demonstrate inadequacies of using habitat maps without accuracy data. We show that using more detailed habitat information ensures better representation of biogenic habitats (i.e. coral and seagrass), but leads to larger and more costly reserves, because these data have more misclassification errors, and are also more expensive to obtain. Reduced impacts on fishers are possible using coarsely-classified data, which are also more cost-effective for planning reserves if we account for data collection costs, but using these data may under-represent reef habitats that are important for fisheries and biodiversity, due to the maps low thematic resolution. Finally, we show that explicitly accounting for accuracy information in decisions maximizes the chance of successful conservation outcomes by reducing the risk of missing conservation representation targets, particularly when using finely classified data. © 2016",,108-119,,,188,,J.

Whilst conservation planners should consider uncertainty associated with ecological data to make informed decisions, mapping error is rarely, if ever, accommodated in the planning process. Here, we develop a spatial conservation prioritization approach that accounts for the uncertainty inherent in coral reef habitat maps and apply it in the Kubulau District fisheries management area, Fiji. We use accuracy information describing the probability of occurrence of each habitat type, derived from remote sensing data validated by field surveys, to design a marine reserve network that has a high probability of protecting a fixed percentage (10-90%) of every habitat type. We compare the outcomes of our approach to those of standard reserve design approaches, where habitat-mapping errors are not known or ignored. We show that the locations of priority areas change between the standard and probabilistic approaches, with errors of omission and commission likely to occur if reserve design does not accommodate mapping accuracy. Although consideration of habitat mapping accuracy leads to bigger reserve networks, they are unlikely to miss habitat conservation targets. We explore the trade-off between conservation feature representation and reserve network area, with smaller reserve networks possible if we give up on trying to meet targets for habitats mapped with a low accuracy. The approach can be used with any habitat type at any scale to inform more robust and defensible conservation decisions in marine or terrestrial environments. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,41-51,,,162,,Biol.

Yet, examples of integration across realms are relatively scarce, with most targeting priorities in a single realm, such as marine or freshwater, while minimizing threats originating in terrestrial ecosystems. To date, no study has optimized priorities across multiple realms to produce a spatially explicit integrated conservation plan that simultaneously accounts for multiple human activities at a national scale. This represents a major gap in the application of existing cross-realm planning theory. We present a national scale conservation framework for selecting protected areas using a case study of Papua New Guinea (PNG) that integrates multiple systems and ecological connectivity to account for cross-realm benefits and minimize threats of land-use and climate change. The relative importance of both the forests and inshore reef environments to PNG subsistence and commercial livelihoods emphasizes the importance of considering the connections between the land and sea. The plan was commissioned by the PNG Conservation and Environment Protection Authority and identifies a comprehensive set of priorities that meet conservation targets in both the land and sea. Our national-scale prioritization framework is useful for agencies and managers looking to implement actions given multiple objectives, including watershed management and biodiversity protection, and ensures actions are efficient and effective across the land and sea. © 2021 The Author(s)",,,,,254,,Biol.

Cumulative impact maps highlight regions affected by multiple human activities, but efficient conservation investment requires linking dominant pressures to management actions that best address the particular drivers of impacts. We rebuild cumulative impact maps by stressor type (climate change, marine and land) at a global scale to evaluate the expected effectiveness of various management strategies for all coastal territories. Average cumulative impact from non-marine stressors (climate and land) was double those of marine impacts at a national level. The greatest climate impacts by country were in the waters of Pacific Island and Antarctic territories; in the Caspian Sea region and East-Asia for land impacts; and in the waters of European, East-Asian and Caribbean countries for marine impacts. We developed a conservation-effectiveness indicator for the 10 worst-impacted countries in each of the three stressor categories. The indicator considered common management tools for each stressor category: ecosystem-based adaptation and disaster risk reduction (climate), marine protected areas (marine) and integrated coastal management (land). Key disparities were found between broad-scale management of marine ecosystems and the dominant stressors, with existing management in tropical island nations likely insufficient to address intense impacts from climate change. These countries also typically had low performance on governance indicators, suggesting challenges in implementing new mitigation. We highlight trade-offs in making decisions for stressor mitigation and offer strategic guidance on identifying locations to target management of marine, land, or climate impacts. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,245,,Biol.

Although fully protected areas have well-documented outcomes, including increased fish diversity and biomass, the effectiveness of partially protected areas is contested. Partially protected areas may provide benefits in some contexts and may be warranted for social reasons, yet social outcomes often depend on MPAs achieving their ecological goals to distinguish them from open areas and justify the cost of protection. We assessed the social perceptions and ecological effectiveness of 18 partially protected areas and 19 fully protected areas compared with 19 open areas along 7000 km of coast of southern Australia. We used mixed methods, gathering data via semistructured interviews, site surveys, and Reef Life (underwater visual census) surveys. We analyzed qualitative data in accordance with grounded theory and quantitative data with multivariate and univariate linear mixed-effects models. We found no social or ecological benefits for partially protected areas relative to open areas in our study. Partially protected areas had no more fish, invertebrates, or algae than open areas; were poorly understood by coastal users; were not more attractive than open areas; and were not perceived to have better marine life than open areas. These findings provide an important counterpoint to some large-scale meta-analyses that conclude partially protected areas can be ecologically effective but that draw this conclusion based on narrower measures. We argue that partially protected areas act as red herrings in marine conservation because they create an illusion of protection and consume scarce conservation resources yet provide little or no social or ecological gain over open areas. Fully protected areas, by contrast, have more fish species and biomass and are well understood, supported, and valued by the public. They are perceived to have better marine life and be improving over time in keeping with actual ecological results. Conservation outcomes can be improved by upgrading partially protected areas to higher levels of protection including conversion to fully protected areas. © 2021 The Authors.

While large, well-designed and enforced MPAs have been found to be effective, results from small MPAs vary. The Hawkesbury Shelf, a coastal bioregion in New South Wales, Australia, has ten small, near-shore MPAs known as Aquatic Reserves with a variety of protection levels from full no-take to partial protection. This study assessed the effectiveness of these MPAs and analysed how MPA age, size, protection level, wave exposure, habitat complexity, and large canopy-forming algal cover affected fish, invertebrate and benthic communities. We found aspect, protection level, complexity and algal canopy to be important predictors of communities in these MPAs. Most MPAs, however, were not effective in meeting their goals. Only full no-take protection (three out of ten MPAs) had a significant impact on fish assemblages. One no-take MPA—Cabbage Tree Bay—which is naturally sheltered from wave action and benefits from an active local community providing informal enforcement, accounted for most of the increased richness of large fish and increased biomass of targeted fish species. Our findings suggest that small MPAs can enhance biodiversity and biomass on a local scale but only if they have full no-take protection, are in sheltered locations with complex habitat, and have positive community involvement to engender support and stewardship. These results provide a baseline for robust assessment of the effectiveness of small MPAs and inform future management decisions and small MPA design in other locations. © 2018, Springer Science+Business Media B.V., part of Springer Nature.",,2217-2242,,9,27,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Netherlands,,,,age; alga; algae; Algal canopy; Australia; benthos; biodiversity; Biodiversity; biomass; Brassica oleracea var. capitata; canopy; COMMUNITY STRUCTURE; complexity; conservation; Conservation; ecoregion; environmental protection; fish; FISH ASSEMBLAGES; Habitat complexity; habitat management; Hawkesbury Estuary; Invertebrata; invertebrate; Management; marine environment; New South Wales; NEW-SOUTH-WALES; NEW-ZEALAND; protected area; RESERVES; ROCKY REEF BIODIVERSITY; size; species richness; STRUCTURAL COMPLEXITY; SYDNEY HARBOR; TOP-DOWN; wave action; Wave exposure; WAVE EXPOSURE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Location: Ningaloo Marine Park, Western Australia. Taxon: Benthic mesophotic taxa: corals, macroalgae and sponges. Methods: We determined the distributions of the major benthic taxonomic groups: corals, macroalgae and sponges, using a number of modelling techniques and an ensemble using the ‘sdm’ R package. A range of grid sizes were used (10, 50, 100 and 250 m) to identify how model predictions were altered. Models were evaluated using the area under the curve of a receiver operator characteristic plot (AUC) and the true skill statistic (TSS) using a spatially independent dataset. Results: Grid size had a large effect on model performance across the taxonomic groups. Model outputs were compared to null surfaces and 88.8% of models performed significantly better than null. Distribution of corals was best predicted using the finest grid size (10 m) regardless of modelling method, although a model ensemble produced the best results (AUC = 0.80, TSS = 0.52). Macroalgae and sponges were better predicted at coaster grids sizes (250 m). Again, ensembles performed well for both macroalgae (AUC = 0.83, TSS = 0.63) and sponges (AUC = 0.88, TSS = 0.66). Model ensembles maintained high accuracy across grid sizes and were consistently the best, or second-best, performing method. Main conclusions: This study has shown how grid size should be considered when producing distribution models. Identifying the most relevant grid size and being aware of the influence it may have will provide more accurate predictions of the distributions of taxa. Ensemble methods maintained good performance across scenarios and thus provide a useful tool for conservation and management especially where single modelling methods showed high levels of variability. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,1249-1259,,6,46,,J.

Biodiversity loss is worsening despite rapid growth in the number and extent of protected areas, both at sea and on land. Resolving this requires targeting the locations and actions that will deliver positive conservation outcomes for biodiversity. The Species Threat Abatement and Restoration (STAR) metric, developed by a consortium of experts, quantifies the contributions that abating threats and restoring habitats in specific places offer towards reducing extinction risk based on the IUCN Red List of Threatened SpeciesTM. STAR is now recommended as an appropriate metric by recent disclosure frameworks for companies to report their impacts on nature and STAR has seen widespread uptake within the private sector. However, it is currently only available for the terrestrial realm. We extend the coverage of the threat abatement component of the STAR metric (START), used to identify locations where positive interventions could make a large contribution to reducing global species extinction risk and where developments that increase threats to species should be mitigated, to the marine realm for 1646 marine species. Reducing unsustainable fishing provides the greatest opportunity to lower species extinction risk, comprising 43% of the marine START score. Three-quarters (75%) of the global marine START score falls entirely outside the boundaries of protected areas and only 2.7% falls within no-take protected areas. The STAR metric can be used both to guide protected area expansion and to target other actions, such as establishment and enforcement of fishing limits, to recover biodiversity. © The Author(s) 2024. corrected publication 2024.",,,,1,3,,NPJ Ocean. sustain.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Nature,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Metabarcoding data sets are usually used for ?- and ?-diversity estimates, that is, interspecies (or inter-MOTU [molecular operational taxonomic unit]) patterns. However, the use of hypervariable metabarcoding markers may provide an enormous amount of intraspecies (intra-MOTU) information—mostly untapped so far. The use of cytochrome oxidase (COI) amplicons is gaining momentum in metabarcoding studies targeting eukaryote richness. COI has been for a long time the marker of choice in population genetics and phylogeographic studies. Therefore, COI metabarcoding data sets may be used to study intraspecies patterns and phylogeographic features for hundreds of species simultaneously, opening a new field that we suggest to name metaphylogeography. The main challenge for the implementation of this approach is the separation of erroneous sequences from true intra-MOTU variation. Here, we develop a cleaning protocol based on changes in entropy of the different codon positions of the COI sequence, together with co-occurrence patterns of sequences. Using a data set of community DNA from several benthic littoral communities in the Mediterranean and Atlantic seas, we first tested by simulation on a subset of sequences a two-step cleaning approach consisting of a denoising step followed by a minimal abundance filtering. The procedure was then applied to the whole data set. We obtained a total of 563 MOTUs that were usable for phylogeographic inference. We used semiquantitative rank data instead of read abundances to perform AMOVAs and haplotype networks. Genetic variability was mainly concentrated within samples, but with an important between seas component as well. There were intergroup differences in the amount of variability between and within communities in each sea. For two species, the results could be compared with traditional Sanger sequence data available for the same zones, giving similar patterns. Our study shows that metabarcoding data can be used to infer intra- and interpopulation genetic variability of many species at a time, providing a new method with great potential for basic biogeography, connectivity and dispersal studies, and for the more applied fields of conservation genetics, invasion genetics, and design of protected areas. © 2019 The Authors.

These habitats provide a suite of ecosystem goods and services, being of primary importance in marine conservation. Despite their central role in the coastal ecology, P. oceanica meadows are undergoing overall deterioration and fragmentation in the basin mostly due to anthropogenic impacts at local to global scales. In the last decades, several management measures have been proposed aiming to improve the meadow health conditions, while the periodic monitoring of P. oceanica meadows allows for verifying their effectiveness. Here, we report the results of the monitoring of P. oceanica at Tremiti Islands Marine Protected Area (Adriatic Sea, Italy) carried out in 2003, 2015, and 2020. A general worsening was observed, particularly enhanced by direct anthropogenic impacts mostly related to anchoring practices, as well as by a certain level of sedimentation possibly deriving from coastal development. However, the identification of these impacts and the correct management of human activities to mitigate them produced positive results in a relatively short time span. Posidonia oceanica meadows are Mediterranean coastal habitats of great conservation importance. This study is focused on a meadow located at Tremiti Islands Marine Protected Area (Adriatic Sea, Italy), which was monitored in 2003, 2015, and 2020 to evaluate its health state over time in relation to coastal human activities, which have been highly affecting this MPA for the last 20 years. To assess any change in the physiognomy of the meadow, rhizome density, percentage coverage, and lower limit progressions and/or regression over time were evaluated by scuba diving, while the distribution and extension of the meadow were assessed through habitat mapping using a side-scan sonar. Moreover, phenological and lepidochronological analyses were performed on the collected rhizomes to assess the leaf area index (LAI, m(2)m(-2)) and the rhizome age (lepidochronological years). Our study showed a general deterioration of P. oceanica meadow from 2003 to 2020, with a significant reduction of its absolute and relative rhizome density and LAI at almost all sampling stations, absence of renovation of the meadow, and lower limit regression and overall worsening of the main conservation status indicators. However, appropriate management actions, such as the establishment of mooring buoy fields, supported the improvement of the P. oceanica status at the local scale with a significant increase in density and LAI and the presence of active stolonization processes, suggesting that mitigation actions can play a crucial role in the conservation of this habitat. On the contrary, local anthropogenic impacts, especially anchoring and coastal development, markedly affect the resilience of P. oceanica meadows to global stressors, such as climate change.",,,,6,11,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000816457000001,,,,,,,coastal management; COASTAL WATERS; DISTURBANCES; DIVERSITY; ECOLOGICAL STATUS; GROWTH; infralittoral habitat; marine phanerogam conservation; marine protected area management; MEADOWS; meadows protection; Mediterranean Sea meadows; POPULATION-DYNAMICS; scientific diving; seagrass; seagrass monitoring; sensitive habitats,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This kind of recovery from a tsunami is generally accompanied by major changes in land use. This paper aims at providing an overview of reconstruction and land use plans and going over the effects and issues posed by such reconstruction from the perspective of land use planning by categorizing the disaster-stricken regions into following three types; “collective relocation area,” “rebuilding on original location area,” and “non-disaster area.” A “collective relocation area” is the reconstruction case, in which the affected people collectively move from low-lying land, which is at risk of tsunamis and is designated as a disaster hazard zone, to a residential site on a hill or some other safe location, mainly based on the Collective Relocation Program. In this area, the municipal governments conducted careful surveys to understand the residents’ intentions and had done their best to match the supply and demand with the number of units available in the relocation residential sites. Thus, for the most part, the residential sites intended for relocation have been filled. However, some challenges still remain, such as isolation of relocation residential sites, low demand for low-lying original relocation areas. “Rebuilding on original location area” is a reconstruction case in which the affected people rebuild their houses on the affected site, since safety from tsunamis is assured through land raising or seawall construction. In this area, the rebuilding process has not progressed and a very low-density urban form is taking shape in both cases where land readjustment projects had built infrastructure and raised the ground level for safety, and those areas where no urban development projects took place and in which immediate reconstruction was allowed. A “non-disaster area” is a reconstruction case in which the affected people move and rebuild their houses outside of the original affected area individually. In cases where there were designated urbanization promotion areas and urbanization restricted areas, as seen mostly in the metropolis and core city areas based on the City Planning Act, development concentrated around the existing urban centers within the urbanization promotion areas, and thus achieved a highly dense utilization and was able to protect the urbanization restricted areas in the suburban zones. However, in the small and mid-sized cities where they had not made such designations, and in suburban areas where they had much looser restrictions, it was found that development was occurring in a sprawling fashion. The author concluded there has been progress in creating a denser urban form in some areas in “non-disaster areas” in the urbanized area, partly in accordance with plan and partly without plan, and “collective relocation areas,” which can be evaluated as a more sustainable space. In other locations, however, the reality is that a low-density urban form is taking shape before our eyes. He also pointed to a few potential solutions such as the aggregation of land and the creating a district- or local-level land usage management system. © 2018, Springer International Publishing AG.",,183-203,,,47,,,,,,,,Springer Netherlands,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Adv.

However, recent evidence suggests that over-exploitation has substantially reduced stock biomass throughout these regions. Deepwater marine protected areas (MPAs) are often established as a conservation and management tool, but there are few published studies on their efficacy. This study examined the effectiveness of a deepwater MPA in the Kita-Taikyu Bank (KB), based on the changes in relative abundance and size-frequency distributions for target species collected over seven years between a five-year period of year-round closure and subsequent seasonal closures. Etelis coruscans was the most abundant lutjanid in the KB, comprising 45.0% of the total number of individual deepwater snappers. The relative abundance of E. coruscans in the deepwater MPA was influenced by whether protection was year-round or seasonal; their abundance decreased significantly when the ban was lifted. Some distinct size modes of E. coruscans gradually grew larger during the year-round closure, but modes were indistinct after the change to seasonal closures. In addition, our results showed that the relative abundance of mature size classes had not fully recovered during the study period. In our tagging experiment for 151 deepwater snappers comprised of six species, two tagged Pristipomoides filamentosus were recaptured. These cases supplied some biological data regarding deepwater snappers: the periodicity of the growth zone formation and the low rate of cross-border movement of Pr. filamentosus. Our study suggested that deepwater snappers are rapidly depleted by fishing and very slow to recover. It also provided evidence of the potential success of MPAs for deepwater snappers; longer-term year-round closure of deepwater MPAs may be the best solution for affording long-lived fishery species the protection necessary for them to achieve maturity. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.",,123-130,,,215,,Fish.

The substantial ecological damage of wildfires is caused by the considerable amounts of greenhouse gases emitted during the biomass burning process, as well as by the changes in the soil properties, thus accelerating the erosion rate. The objective of this study is to detect wildfire events in tropical areas using satellite data acquired by Sentinel-3 Sea and Land Surface Temperature Radiometer (SLSTR), the latest Earth Observation Satellite from the European Space Agency. The SLSTR sensor includes bands dedicated to detect active fire, and thanks to its fast revisit period and high spectral resolution it is suitable for rapid detection of forest fires, in addition to monitoring the recovery of burned forests. For this study, a single forest fire event that took place in the Indio Maiz Biological Reserve, Nicaragua, during April 3-13th of 2018, was selected as the study case. A total of six S3-SLSTR images were downloaded and preprocessed. The images were visualized with different combinations of bands, including those specific for active fire detection. Additionally, optical images from MODIS and Sentinel-2 were also acquired and compared to the S3-SLSTR, in terms of fire detection capabilities. The results indicate that S3-SLSTR imagery is capable of detecting active fire events in remote areas. Despite its coarse resolution of 500 m, S3 is a valuable addition to emergency response and disaster management team's toolkit, who will definitely benefit from the fire-monitoring optimized images. Moreover, a twin Sentinel-3 satellite was launched on April 25, 2018, meaning that the twin S3 satellites could be employed the monitor wildfires on daily basis, even in remote areas of the tropical region. © 2018 Asian Association on Remote Sensing.

Management and conservation efforts have tended to focus only on the physical condition of the coral reefs with less attention to biological and oceanographic aspects, in particular genetics and hydrodynamics. Genetic data can illustrate the connectivity between and within populations of an organism, making it is possible to determine source and sink populations or sites. Studies of physical water movements can also illustrate the likely patterns of movement or predict the mobility of coral planulae. Both of these approaches can help to strengthen Marine Protected Area (MPA) design, especially at the formation stage, in particular MPAs focused on coral reef ecosystems. Together, these two approaches can provide data on biological networks in a region and help delineate stocks. The implications of such studies can help to identify conservation priorities and improve the effectiveness of management processes in Indonesia, and can certainly enable the refinement of general approaches to help produce management plans tailored to local and regional conditions and processes. This brief review aims to review the constraints that occur in the management process, including barriers to and potential benefits of integrating molecular and hydrodynamic data into the management and conservation process, as illustrated through a critical review of MPA implementation in the waters around Sulawesi Island. © 2019 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,253,,,,,,,,Institute of Physics Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

Similar to many other regions around the world, effective mitigation of these threats through ecosystem-based marine spatial planning is currently constrained by a lack of knowledge of the extent and direction of dispersal of eggs, larvae, recruits, juveniles or adults among the coral reefs (termed population connectivity). Here, we present the outcomes of a series of consultations between Marine Protected Area planners, managers and scientists aimed at facilitating the integration of this connectivity knowledge into effective management guidelines and policy in north-west Australia. Through this process, we first synthesised current knowledge of population connectivity in the fields of oceanography, larval biology and population genetics, and then identified and answered to the best of our ability the most useful questions for the spatial planning of Marine Protected Area networks. Key findings indicate that these systems are likely ecologically independent for many coral reef organisms, with hard corals exhibiting the most localised dispersal of species studied so far. Thus, given that hard corals are also the habitat forming species, and that more widely dispersing species such as fish are likely less vulnerable to small scale disturbance, we propose that no-take areas that facilitate resilience of hard coral populations should maximise biodiversity more generally. This means no-take areas that are large enough to encompass routine dispersal distances of corals (10-20. km), and are spaced at similar distances, will not only maintain self-replenishment, but also aid recovery after disturbance through connectivity between no-take areas. The results can be applied in a regional and wider context, and provide a valuable template for transfer of scientific knowledge into effective policy. © 2012 Elsevier GmbH.",,163-172,,3,21,,J. Nat.

An analysis of stylized fisheries,University of Rhode Island,0892-2284,,,,"In this paper, we analyze the bioeconomic consequences of using marine protected areas (MPAs) to manage fisheries. Marine protected area proponents assert that the potential benefits of MPAs include larger population biomass and associated fishery harvests. Most analytical models have considered only direct changes in harvest patterns resulting from decreases in fishing mortality following establishment of an MPA. Yet recent studies show that mobile fishing gear can decrease fish habitat complexity and alter benthic species composition. Protection of the services provided by the environment in which fish live, grow, and reproduce may be the most important fishery benefit associated with MPAs. Our main objective is to examine the conditions under which MPAs are likely to increase net benefits. Our analysis is based on a stylized bioeconomic model in which fishing has an impact on fish habitat. We examine two distinct sub-categories: (1) fishing effort that impacts the habitat of its target species, and (2) fishing effort that impacts the habitat of species targeted by other fisheries. The model incorporates the movements of the fish population between open and closed areas and the response of the fishing effort level in the area remaining open. Equilibrium stock, catch, and profit levels are compared for open access and the level of effort at which net revenue is maximized. Habitat effects are then incorporated and compared to cases where only stock effects occur. Sensitivity analysis was used to examine a wide range of fishing costs, MPA sizes, damage functions, and migration rates. Our model shows that consideration of habitat may be the main reason to use MPAs as a fishery management tool. The curvature of the habitat damage function is also shown to be an important factor when considering the potential use of MPAs.",,745-757,,,41,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000232152900054,,,,,,,MODEL; PROPERTY,,"Barnes, BW; Thomas, JP",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,BENTHIC HABITATS AND THE EFFECTS OF FISHING,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, experience shows that similar management transfers to communities in Madagascar have only been successful in a very few cases. We aimed to explore the success to be expected of this new approach in the particular case of the Manompana corridor at Madagascar's eastern coast. In a first step, the readiness of the corridor's resource users for CBFM has been analysed according to the seven resource users' attributes developed by Ostrom that predict an effective self-organized resource management. In a second step, we explored how KoloAla addresses known challenges of Madagascar's CBFM. Analyses lead in a rather sober conclusion.

It is classified as endangered on the Red List and is endemic to the Eastern Himalayas in Northeast India, representing a valuable repository of traditional wisdom and ethno medicinal practices. This article compiles available data on C. teeta for the first time, drawing from classical Ayurveda texts, botanical floras and research databases. Since 3000 B.C., this ""Goldthread"" has been an integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Rhizoma coptidis. Through an extensive literature search, including online published reviews, research articles and ethnomedicinal survey reports, it has been found that various tribes in Arunachal Pradesh, India, have utilized its potent therapeutic benefits for centuries to treat ailments such as gastrointestinal disorders, malaria, diabetes, eye disorders, infectious diseases and more. The vivid pharmacological activities of C. teeta are primarily attributed to its alkaloids and other non-alkaloidal components, although limited preclinical work has been reported to date. The roots and rhizomes of C. teeta are rich in alkaloids such as berberine, jatrorrhizine, columbamine, epiberberine, coptisine and palmatine. These compounds play a significant therapeutic role in managing various ailments, including diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. They possess anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, offer neuroprotective effects, aid in metabolic regulation and exhibit antimicrobial activity. Additionally, this review discusses the extensive trade benefits of C. teeta, the reasons for its threatened status and various practical approaches for its conservation and cultivation. By bridging ethnomedicinal knowledge with scientific modernization through a multidisciplinary research approach, this review aims to unlock the hidden treasures of C. teeta and encourage further pharmacological research and standardization.",,Jan-13,,1,12,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001392469000025,,,,,,,ALKALOIDS; ANTIOXIDANT; ARUNACHAL-PRADESH; ayurveda; BERBERINE; CONSERVATION; Coptis teeta Wall; DEBANG BIOSPHERE RESERVE; DENSITY; ethanomedicine; Mamira; MEDICINAL-PLANTS; NORTHEAST; Rhizoma coptidis; RHIZOMA-COPTIDIS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The objective of this article is the analysis of visual landscape resources of Asveja Regional Park in terms of the current state and conditions, changes and modifications within territorial sites as well as with regard to the accumulation and concentration of the objects, their scope and extent. It is possible to assess the efficiency and expediency of an environmental impact taking into consideration research observations. The area of Asveja Regional Park significant for an intense anthropogenic environmental impact and defined in monitoring data sheets and records of Asveja Regional Park referring to 2005–2010 has been selected. Monitoring has been carried out by the Authority of Asveja Regional Park according to the Lithuanian State Environmental Monitoring Program. In order to solve the conflict between society and the environment, the project preconditioned by the use of natural resources and the preservation of valuable objects has been developed. Study on landscape monitoring has been carried out at the local level. It has been fixed within the selected territories, namely, standardised reference sites chosen on the basis of the geosystem and targeted on geophysical–geochemical sensitivity and technogenization with preference for the analysis of the most vulnerable geopotencial territories, i.e. nature reservations, protected areas, shores and the coastlines of lakes providing a wide range of recreational potential. Natural and cultural heritage objects violating regulations on requirements for landscape preservation have been observed in the determined standardized areas as visual resources of the regional park landscape. In order to determine the territorial dispersion of the infringements of requirements for landscape protection, the authors have performed a spatial distribution analysis of visual observation targets calculating nuclear or kernel density. Weight points of requirements for the items violating landscape protection have been attributed thus considering the monetary value of the prescribed fines (following regulations on the specific type of the caused damage). The analysis of the study on specified spatial distribution has been accomplished involving some groups of objects violating requirements for landscape protection. Within the conducted research, the authors investigated the targets that violated requirements for landscape protection and made use of the recorded data. The available findings derive a conclusion that a major part of infringements are considered as recreation violations (40%); violations in usage, trespassing, visiting forests and woodlands (5%) comprise a minor part. In general, the greatest accumulation of infringements are determined to be located in the western and south-eastern part of Asveja Regional Park where their intensity exceeds more than 6 times the concentration of infringements in other investigated areas and territories. © 2015 Vilnius Gediminas Technical University (VGTU) Press.",,41-47,,1,41,,Geod. cartogr,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Taylor and Francis Ltd.,,,,anthropogenic effect; Asveja Regional Park; cultural heritage; Cultural heritage; environmental impact; environmental monitoring; governance approach; heritage conservation; Landscape; landscape planning; Lithuania; Natural heritage; natural resource; nature-society relations; park management; protected area; spatial distribution; Spatial distribution; spatiotemporal analysis; Visual resources,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Still, most empirical studies of stability target small scales. We experimentally removed the local space-dominant species (macroalgae, barnacles, or mussels) at eight sites spanning more than 1000 km of coastline in north- and south-central Chile, and quantified the relationship between area (the number of aggregated sites) and stability in aggregate community variables (total cover) and taxonomic composition. Resistance, recovery, and invariability increased nonlinearly with area in both functional and compositional domains. Yet, the functioning of larger areas achieved a better, albeit still incomplete, recovery than composition. Compared with controls, smaller disturbed areas tended to overcompensate in terms of total cover. These effects were related to enhanced available space for recruitment (resulting from the removal of the dominant species), and to increasing beta diversity and decaying community-level spatial synchrony (resulting from increasing area). This study provides experimental evidence for the pivotal role of spatial scale in the ability of ecosystems to resist and recover from chronic disturbances.

The implementation of protected areas has been the cornerstone of terrestrial and marine conservation. However, this strategy has only been seldomly applied to the protection of fluvial ecosystems and there is still no clear evidence of its effectiveness. We reviewed existing literature in scientific journals and reports from conservation agencies and analysed existing protection policies dedicated to rivers as well as several case studies throughout the world. Our main aim is to understand the potential advantages and drawbacks of dedicated fluvial protected areas, comparing to terrestrial protected areas and even to the total absence of protection. We also delved in the process of implementing fluvial protected areas, namely in what concerns relevant spatial scales, conservation priorities, stakeholders’ involvement and mitigation measures to potential threats. In total 173 references were retained after a comprehensive search on Google Scholar, SpringerLink, Scopus and ResearchGate. These studies revealed that, despite contradictory results, terrestrial protected areas provide some degree of protection to riverine ecosystems contained within their borders, namely through increased abundances and species richness of some specific groups. Comparatively, however, dedicated fluvial protected areas, designed to accommodate the uniqueness of these systems, hold a much higher potential. Yet, data regarding its effectiveness is still scarce, mainly due to the lack of general guidelines and resources to evaluate performance following establishment, which prevents stronger conclusions. © The Author(s) 2024.",,439-462,,2,33,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media B.V.,,,,biodiversity; Biodiversity; Conservation; conservation management; fluvial landform; Fluvial protected areas; literature review; protected area; river system; Rivers; species richness,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The human settlements heavily used and have significantly altered those areas, for farming, urbanization, recreation and other functions. In order to protect freshwater ecosystems, riparian areas have recently assumed world recognition and considered valuable areas for the conservation of nature and biodiversity, protected by forest laws and policies as permanent preservation areas. The objective of this work was to compare parameters from riparian areas related to a natural watercourse less than 10 m wide, for specific purposes in Law No. 4761/65, now revoked and replaced by Law No. 12651/12, known as the New Forest Code. The effects of 15, 30 and 50 m wide riparian forest in water and soil of three headwater catchments used for sugar cane production were analyzed. The catchments are located in the Environmental Protection Area of Uberaba River Basin (state of Minas Gerais, Brazil), legally protected for conservation of water resources and native vegetation. A field survey was carried out in the catchments for verification of land uses, while periodical campaigns were conducted for monthly water sampling and seasonal soil sampling within the studied riparian buffers. The physico-chemical parameters of water were handled by ANOVA (Tukey's mean test) for recognition of differences among catchments, while thematic maps were elaborated in a geographic information system for illustration purposes. The results suggested that the 10, 30 or even 50 m wide riparian buffers are not able to fulfill the environmental function of preserving water resources, and therefore are incapable to ensure the well-being of human populations.

The core of any such approach is a reliable habitat classification and inventory of target biota. These data, and particularly the latter, are often lacking at the local-regional scales most relevant to estuarine management. This study presents a quantitative approach for predicting the likely fish and benthic invertebrate assemblages at any unsampled estuarine site using readily-obtainable and enduring biophysical attributes. We apply this scheme to an urbanised estuary and predict the above faunas throughout its entire nearshore zone. These data are then used to systematically design an exploratory spatially-efficient reserve that meets representation targets for numerous faunal conservation features, and test the ability of an existing, unsystematically-derived Marine Park to do the same. Spatial patterns in the enduring biophysical attributes of local-scale habitats provided good to excellent surrogates for those in the fish and invertebrate faunas. All unsampled sites were then successfully assigned to their respective habitat and correlated fauna using biophysical measurements and a predictive decision tree. The resultant spatially-continuous ‘faunal map’ enabled quantification of 67 conservation features, from which reserves aimed at representing 10–30% of each feature were systematically derived. All reserves were highly efficient and almost always met representation targets, contrasting with the existing Marine Park which underrepresented 40–80% of features. Reserve designs were, however, spread throughout the system, highlighting the complexities in designing representative reserves for estuarine environments that capture their spatio-temporal diversity. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,80-98,,,165,,Ocean Coast.

Current literature emphasizes how land clearing increases malaria incidence, leading to the conclusion that forest conservation decreases malaria burden. Yet, there is also evidence that proximity to forest fringes increases malaria incidence, which implies the opposite relationship between forest conservation and malaria. We compare the effect of these environmental factors on malaria and explore its implications. Methods and Findings: Using a large malaria dataset (~1,300,000 positive malaria tests collected over ~4.5 million km2), satellite imagery, permutation tests, and hierarchical Bayesian regressions, we show that greater forest cover (as a proxy for proximity to forest fringes) tends to be associated with higher malaria incidence, and that forest cover effect was 25 times greater than the land clearing effect, the often cited culprit of malaria in the region. These findings have important implications for land use/land cover (LULC) policies in the region. We find that cities close to protected areas (PA's) tend to have higher malaria incidence than cities far from PA's. Using future LULC scenarios, we show that avoiding 10% of deforestation through better governance might result in an average 2-fold increase in malaria incidence by 2050 in urban health posts. Conclusions: Our results suggest that cost analysis of reduced carbon emissions from conservation efforts in the region should account for increased malaria morbidity, and that conservation initiatives should consider adopting malaria mitigation strategies. Coordinated actions from disparate science fields, government ministries, and global initiatives (e.g., Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation; Millenium Development Goals; Roll Back Malaria; and Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria), will be required to decrease malaria toll in the region while preserving these important ecosystems. © 2013 Valle, Clark.",,,,3,8,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,article; Brazil; Cities; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; Cost of Illness; deforestation; environmental factor; environmental impact assessment; environmental protection; human; Humans; incidence; Incidence; land use; malaria; Malaria; population research; population size; public health problem; Regression Analysis; risk factor; urban area; Urban Population,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Gradients in salt, inundation regime, hydrodynamics, turbidity, organic matter and sediment composition create a mosaic of gulleys, bare mudflats and sand bars, vegetated tidal marshes and connecting tidal creeks. The complexity and completeness of the habitat network relies on the available uninterrupted space for habitat differentiation. The habitat configuration and connectivity with the hinterland determine the estuarine functionality, especially for estuarine species that rely on different habitats in different life stages. Estuaries are cited among the most productive ecosystems. They process the exogenic input of nutrients and organic matter from the sea and the river into food for all kinds of species that live permanently or temporally in the estuary Traditionally, estuaries are attractive settlement places and typical port development areas. For centuries, estuarine management aimed at economic optimization only, leading to the near destruction of the ecosystem services and biodiversity. In the Netherlands most estuaries were closed from the sea by dams or storm surge barriers for safety reasons. After some decades water quality problems arose in the artificial lakes, threatening ecosystems and human use. It also became apparent that the estuaries had lost their function for migrating fish due to the closures and for migrating birds due to extensive habitat loss. At first some species specific rehabilitation measures were taken locally, but the need to include local people and governments led to the installation of institutions in the different areas which are an alliance of different government levels, entrepreneurs and shareholders to address the water problems and look for climate proof, ecologically resilient and economically vital areas, the South-west Delta, the Scheldt estuary and the Ems. In the Flemish Scheldt the Sigma Plan aims at both safety for floods and ecological restoration. These institutions take estuarine restoration strategies and decisions to a higher level of integration and sustainability. They aim to recover ecosystem goods and services and measures are taken to reinstate the underlying estuarine processes. For the Ems-Dollard area the Netherlands and Germany have also jointly drawn up an Integrated Management Plan, which contains among others Natura 2000 plan development tackling issues such as the interaction between water flow and sediment, sand and sludge, and options for intervention to reduce turbidity in the estuary. Modeling results and expert judgment underpinning the projected outcome and cost/benefits for different scenarios facilitate the s o c i e t al debates about choices to be made. Economic arguments however mostly prevail disproportionally in the final decision processes. The article mentions examples of various actions and projects. © 2019 Werkgemeenschap Landschapsecologisch Onderzoek.

They have also become a popular management tool for bottom trawl fisheries, a common fishing technique on continental shelves worldwide. The effects of bottom trawling go far beyond the impact on target species, as trawls also affect other components of the benthic ecosystem and the seabed itself. This means that for bottom trawl fisheries, MPAs can potentially be used not only to conserve target species but also to reduce impact of these side effects of the fishery. However, predicting the protective effects of MPAs is complicated because the side effects of trawling potentially alter the food-web interactions between target and non-target species. These changes in predatory and competitive interactions among fish and benthic invertebrates may have important ramifications for MPAs as tools to manage or mitigate the effects of bottom trawling. Yet, in current theory regarding the functioning of MPAs in relation to bottom trawl fisheries, such predatory and competitive interactions between species are generally not taken into account. In this study, we discuss how food-web interactions that are potentially affected by bottom trawling may alter the effectiveness of MPAs to protect (1) biodiversity and marine habitats, (2) fish populations, (3) fisheries yield, and (4) trophic structure of the community. We make the case that in order to be applicable for bottom trawl fisheries, guidelines for the implementation of MPAs must consider their potential food-web effects, at the risk of failing management. © 2016 by the Ecological Society of America.",,2302-2310,,7,26,,Ecol.

The new area is intended as a compensation for losses of existing high quality dune habitat as a result of the use of Maasvlakte 2 (MV-2), the new extension of Rotterdam harbour. Compensation was required under international EU Community regulations because the existing dune areas that could potentially be affected are protected under the EU Natura2000. The paper discusses the political and management aspects at EU- and regional levels. In The Netherlands, the construction of a compensation area along the coast, due to the extension of an international harbour, has been a procedure without precedence.

Identifying areas that can integrate both pastoral and conservation activities is important for capturing benefits from wildlife in non-protected areas. Aims: To investigate wildlife distribution in a contiguous landscape comprising both pastoral ranches and wildlife-based areas in western Botswana. Methods: We deployed motion-activated camera traps to assess mammal richness and occupancy using a multi-species occupancy model. We tested whether environmental factors influenced these parameters in a commercial ranching block in the western Kalahari region of Botswana, and whether species-specific occupancy varied between ranches and neighbouring wildlife management areas. Key results: In the ranching block, vegetation, season and distance to wildlife areas influenced species-specific occupancy and species richness, whereas farm type and water availability affected only a few carnivore species. Commercial ranches supported several threatened species such as African wild dog, cheetah and pangolin, and we detected two species, African civet and serval, not previously considered being present in this region. Mammal diversity was similar between ranches and wildlife areas, but species composition varied. Land use affected species-specific occupancy, with many carnivore species occurring close to or in wildlife areas. Conclusions: We showed that commercial ranches in the Kalahari are utilised by many mammal species, and these areas may play an important role in the conservation of threatened species. Understanding species-, group- and community-level responses to the impacts of human activities in rangelands is vital as the need for pastoral land increases. Implications: We predicted regions of high occurrence of carnivores that can be important for tackling human-wildlife conflict as well as regions with high species diversity that may be useful for increasing integration of conservation endeavours (e.g. eco-tourism) that promote the benefits of wildlife in predominantly livestock regions. © 2022 CSIRO.",,215-226,,3,49,,Wildl.

Known as the Aichi Target 11, this plan calls for the protection of 10% of coastal and marine environments by 2020. Despite an increase of global efforts to implement MPAs, and more recently MPA networks, to achieve the Aichi Target 11, there is limited peer-reviewed literature about lessons learned and insights for effective implementation and management. With California home to one of the largest, scientifically guided, stakeholder-driven, ecologically connected networks of MPAs in the world, this paper offers guidance to MPA managers and policy makers on points of consideration prior to, during, and following, MPA implementation. Topics and recommendations are based on lessons learned from the design and implementation of California's MPA Management Program. Recommendations range from the importance of using relevant designations during MPA planning and implementation, flexibility in enforcement measures and scientific monitoring, as well as addressing overlapping governance and authorities, and early and continued public outreach and engagement. Broadly, establishing an adaptive management process to provide a responsive framework for potential management changes including a mechanism for evaluating the efficacy of a network of MPAs following establishment is critical. While management of California's MPA Network continues to evolve, these insights can inform other MPA network planning and management efforts. © 2022",,,,,137,,Mar.

This national breeding bird register aims to monitor national population size and trends in e.g. Special Protection Areas of the EU-Bird Directive and is part of an ecological monitoring programme of the Dutch government. Fieldwork is carried out mainly by dedicated volunteers, co-ordinated by Sovon Vogelonderzoek Nederland and carried out according to standardised methods. Species covered are all colonially breeding birds (e.g. Great Cormorant, herons, gulls, Sand Martin and Rook) and all scarce to rare breeding birds, like Great Bittern, Western Marsh Harrier, Corncrake, Common Ringed Plover, Barn Owl, Whinchat, Common Raven and Corn Bunting. This paper summarises results of the surveys in 2000-2002, published before in annual reports (van Dijk et al. 2002, 2003). Population size estimates and an indication for trends are provided in Table 1. Note that numbers in many species (especially rare species) refer to territories, and do not necessarily include confirmed breeding. All three seasons covered here were preceded by exceptionally mild winters. Surveys in 2001 were seriously affected by Foot and Mouth-disease: especially in March-May several areas had restricted access or no access at all. Red-necked- and Black-necked Grebe were thriving. Settlement of several pairs of Red-necked Grebes in the northern part of the country probably expresses expansion of this species in nearby breeding centres in northern Germany. Great Cormorant generally remains stable in inland colonies, but continues to increase in the Wadden Sea. Due to the series of mild winters, populations of herons did well, with up to 300 breeding pairs (bp) of Great Bittern in 2002. Eurasian Spoonbill reached record population levels in 2002 (1500 bp) and has expanded to the German and Danish Wadden Sea. The Mediterranean 'flavour' of some regions was also enhanced by good numbers of Little Egret (37 bp in 2002) and Great White Egret (47 bp in 2002), which now have a major core breeding area in the Delta area and Oostvaardersplassen in Flevoland, respectively. Rapidly expanding species are also found among geese. Especially Greater Canada Goose and Barnacle Goose show exponential population growth. The population of Barnacle Goose already consists of 2000-2500 bp. Recovery of Red-crested Pochard, starting after major improvement in local water quality, continued. For Common Eider, a species which is notoriously difficult to monitor, the population trend is less obvious. In areas where numbers are well-known recent data point at a decline. Among raptors, Peregrine Falcon is still expanding: 13 bp were counted in 2002. Remarkable were a nest of a Black Kite in 2000 (third for The Netherlands, but failed) and nest-building by a pair of Ospreys in 2002 (first attempt). The latter occurred too late in season to be fruitful, but coincides with an increase of summer visitors and observations of displaying birds. It is expected that the species will settle as a breeding bird in the near future. A worrying decline proceeds in Hen Harrier, which still has its stronghold on the Wadden Sea islands and joins Short-eared Owl in a downward trend. Corncrakes had an exceptionally good season in 2000 (540-585 territories) and moderate numbers in the following years. In 2001, the first breeding attempt of Common Crane was documented (in 2002 already two pairs bred). Some waders showed ongoing long-term declines (e.g. Kentish Plover, Ruff). Ruff mainly survives in special reserves and has abandoned nearly the entire country. Recent developments include declines in Pied Avocet populations along the mainland Wadden Sea coasts (20% decline since the early 1990s, probably mainly due to increased predation rates). Common Ringed Plover remained stable after a series of years with lower numbers. Mediterranean Gull, which increased in the 1990s, had a sudden breakdown, but this was only due to the move of important colonies in the SW-Netherlands across the Belgian border. Further declines were observed in Black-headed Gull and European Herring Gull. Black-headed Gulls have abandoned many inland colonies, whereas coastal colonies increasingly move to the Wadden Sea islands to escape predation from Red Foxes. A new breeding bird species was Black-legged Kittiwake, which first bred in 2000 on a platform on the Dutch continental shelf in the North Sea. Slightly expanding is also Greater Black-backed Gull. Tern populations generally remained stable but reproduction was poor in several colonies. Black Tern increased slightly. Barn Owl has nearly re covered from the population low in the 1960s and 1970s. However, numbers vary from region to region due to vole population cycles. Eurasian Eagle Owl, whcih first appeared in the southernmost edge of the country, occupied a new breeding site near the German border in Gelderland in 2002 and now counts three bp. Similar to herons (and species like Grey Wagtail), Common Kingfisher benefited from the series of mild winters. Stimulated locally by the restoration of natural river banks and improved water quality, the species reached unprecedented numbers (650-700 bp). In 2001 and 2002, a few European Bee-eaters bred, most of which failed. Eurasian Wryneck still balances on the verge of extinction in many areas; the national population only holds 65 bp at maximum. The same applies to Crested Lark, remaining in only few urban areas by now. Tawny Pipit shares the downward trend and might disappear soon as a breeding bird in the Netherlands (five territories in 2002, at least threee of which occupied by unpaired males). Again as a result of mild winters, population of Zitting Cisticola thrived in the southwestern part of the country. In another southern 'invader', Melodious Warbler, expansion proceeds slower than expected. Large fluctuations were observed in Bearded Reedling. Both Red-backed Shrike and Great Grey Shrike suffered losses; the latter species is expected to disappear as a breeding bird soon (no confirmed breeding, only two records in May-June). The long-term population recovery of Rook now seems to level off (see also Limosa 77: 11-24). Raven recently tends to decline, partly due to less favourable feeding conditions as supplemental feeding in the core breeding has stopped. Common Rosefinch has nearly vanished after an upsurge in the 1990s. The long-term decline in Ortolan Bunting is nearly completed; despite a few scattered singing (but probably unpaired) males, breeding was suspected only once.",,45-64,,2,78,,Limosa,Kolonievogels en zeldzame broedvogels in Nederland in 2000-02,,,,,,,Dutch,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Alcedo atthis; Anser; Anser sp.; Apoidea; Ardeidae; Asio flammeus; Atlantic Ocean; Aves; avifauna; Benelux; Branta canadensis; Branta leucopsis; Carpodacus erythrinus; Central Europe; Charadrius hiaticula; Chlidonias niger; Circus aeruginosus; Cisticola; Clupea harengus; colonial breeding; Corvus corax; Eastern Hemisphere; Egretta garzetta; endangered species; Eurasia; Europe; Falco peregrinus; Flevoland; Galerida cristata; Gelderland; Germany; Grus grus; Jynx torquilla; Larus argentatus argenteus; Larus melanocephalus; Larus ridibundus; Limosa; Milvus migrans; Muridae; Netherlands; Netta rufina; North Sea; oceanic regions; Oostvaardersplassen; Pandion; Phalacrocorax carbo; Podiceps grisegena; Raptores; Recurvirostra avosetta; Rissa tridactyla; Scolopacidae; Somateria mollissima; species diversity; species inventory; Strigiformes; Thoracica; Tyto alba; Vulpes; Wadden Sea; Western Europe; World; Zea mays,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This paper presents the results of the 1999 survey and summarises the annual report published recently by Sovon Vogelonderzoek Nederland (van Dijk et al. 2001). Table 1 lists all species and numbers recorded in 1999, giving details on the actual numbers counted, the estimated size of the national population and the most recent population estimate so far. Numbers generally refer to the number of territories, and do not necessarily implicate confirmed breeding. Again, the breeding season followed an exceptional mild winter. Since autumn 1998 was very et, water tables were still high in many areas, favouring breeding opportunities for wetland species. Fieldwork was enhanced by mild weather conditions during March-July. Among the rare breeding birds, records of Horned Grebe (1), Common Crane (1), Whiskered Tern (1), Eurasian Eagle Owl (2), Tengmalm's Owl (1), Eurasian Hoopoe (1), Thrush Nightingale (1), Red-spotted Bluethroat (1), Ring Ouzel (1), River Warbler (1), Melodious Warbler (1), Great Grey Shrike (1) and House Crow (1) were highlights of the 1999 breeding season. However, often only territorial behavior was observed, and confirmed breeding was only reported for Whiskered Tern, Eurasian Eagle Owl (1), Red-spotted Bluethroat (new to the Dutch list, perhaps mixed pair with White-spotted Bluethroat), Great Grey Shrike (first successful pair since 1993) and House Crow. Great Bittern, Grey Heron and Common Kingfisher, species which suffered from cold weather in the 1995/96 and 1996/97 winters, continued their gradual recovery, although especially the population development for Great Bittern remains worrying. Growing numbers were also observed in Red-necked Grebe, Black-necked Grebe, Little Egret, Greater White-fronted Goose, Bar-headed Goose, Greater Canada Goose, Barnacle Goose, Black-winged Stilt, Pied Avocet, Mediterranean Gull (15% increase compared to 1998), European Nightjar and Sand Martin. Especially population growth in (originally) escaped goose species is one of the most obvious phenomena of the last decade. In the northern Delta area, SW-Netherlands, the population of Barnacle Goose in summer already exceeds 4000 individuals. Elsewhere, small settlements of this species also show an exponential increase. Long-term declines continued in 1999 for Hen Harrier, Kentish Plover (Wadden Sea), Ruff, Eurasian Wryneck, Crested Lark, Tawny Pipit, Great Reed Warbler, Red-backed Shrike, Ortolan Bunting and Corn Bunting.

Bikini, Enewetak, Christmas, Johnston, Moruroa, and Fangataufa have all been used for nuclear tests, and these tests are continuing at Moruroa and Fangataufa. Johnston now contains thousands of canisters of nerve gas, and a large chemical disposal facility has been built to incinerate these substances and other chemical weapons now stored elsewhere. The small islands of Palau have been looked at as the possible site for an oil superport and may be used for a US military base in the future. Most recently, the government of the Marshall Islands has suggested that Bikini, Enewetak, and Erikub Atolls might be used as storage sites for nuclear wastes. These missions are hazardous to the marine environment and are incompatible with the protection of the unique ecosystems found at these atolls. A low-lying atoll cannot be distinguished from its surrounding marine environment and must be thought of as an inherent part of the ocean ecosystem. An atoll is inevitably subject to typhoons and tsunamis (tidal waves), and any hazardous substances on its narrow land area can be swept into the surrounding ocean system. Particularly when one is dealing with long-lived radioactive nuclides, or highly toxic chemical weapons, it is unrealistic to imagine that these materials can be separated from the ocean environment during the entire period that they present dangers. The 1982 Law of the Sea Convention and all the 'regional seas' treaties drafted with the assistance of the United Nations Environment Program, including the Convention for the Protection of the Natural Resources and Environment of the South Pacific Region (Article 14), require member nations to 'take all appropriate measures to protect and preserve rare or fragile ecosystems...' Substantial efforts are now being made at the global, regional, and national level to identify appropriate 'specially protected areas' and to define the types of protection that should be provided for these areas. An isolated low-lying atoll is, almost by definition, a 'rare or fragile ecosystem' and all these atolls should be designated as 'specially protected areas' deserving of careful planning, management, and protection. © 1991.",,87-160,,2,16,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"atoll; atoll ecosystem; ecosystem; environmental management; hazardous activity; hazardous waste disposal; marine environment; nuclear testing; Pacific, (atolls); Pacific, Pacific Islands; protected area; protection area; UNCLOS (1982)",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The defined objectives of this MPA-network are based on the ecosystem approach: to protect biodiversity and other ecological values, and to ensure sustainable use. The (inter)national policy guidelines state that the selection of MPAs should be based on scientific information and ecological criteria only. As a signatory to the Convention, the Netherlands is now faced with meeting this obligation, and the process of designating the first Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in the Dutch part of the North Sea is currently in progress. We focus on the science-policy interactions that are part of this Dutch MPA selection process. By taking a closer look at the contemporary site selection process as well as its historical background, we show that ecological, socio-economic and political considerations cannot always be easily separated. Uncertainty is high and the ultimate selection and delimitation of candidate sites rather seems to be the result of a balancing act between ecological, socio-economic and political interests, in which scientific and policy guiding procedures blend with ad-hoc political decision making, and with expert judgment in cases where data is lacking.

It is based on fieldwork carried out in Finistčre (Western Brittany) during the discussions preparing the creation of the National park of the Iroise Sea. The construction of the NP results from a collective work during which the remarkable features of the natural environment are discussed between various partners and administrations under the supervision of the Ministry of Environment. From 1990 until now, two projects of NP have followed one another. The first one focused on the protection of emblematic species (grey seal and large dolphin); the perimeter included the islands of the Iroise sea (Ushant, Molene and Sein) and their surroundings. The second is based on a ecosystemic approach and includes the entire Iroise sea with an objective of conservation. To account for the two processes of construction of a remarkable zone, an analysis of territorial public policies as a process of institutionalisation of collective action has been developed. It shows that the definition of the remarkable features of the zone combines the characteristics of the natural environment and the configuration of the local social system. Some factors may change, e.g. grey seals supposed to be a local species are discovered as a migrating species, scientific experts stuck to the local political networks manage to get some autonomy. The remarkable features of the area change in connection with these factors. Therefore, it can be argued that the construction of the Iroise sea as remarkable area refers to the definition of the social uses of the area. The changes of the remarkable features depends on the looseness of the concepts referred to, like the concepts of patrimonial management or sustainable development. © 2002 Éditions scientifiques et médicales Elsevier SAS.",,31-37,,4,10,,Nat.

The MPA is divided into two spatially separated zones based on habitat type: a seagrass zone and a coral reef zone. In this study, visual census data were collected in 2018–2019 and were used to derive fish biomass and community diversity metrics as proxies for ecosystem condition and function (trophic and mobility). The effectiveness of the MPA in protecting fish communities in the seagrass and coral reef zones was evaluated. An updated characterization of the Phu Quoc fish communities, and an assessment of fish community variation among regions and between habitat types, is provided. In total, 125 species representing 74 genera of 40 families were recorded. Omnivores were the most abundant (38%), followed by planktivores (24%), whereas piscivores (2%) were scarce. There was an especially low density of high-value fishery target species such as Haemulidae (<0.01%), Carangidae (<0.2%), Lethrinidae (<0.3%), Lutjanidae (<0.4%), Serranidae (<2%), and Chaetodontidae (<3%). Alarmingly, fishes with a total length of >20 cm only accounted for 1% of the total individuals. Species and functional composition were similar between protected and unprotected areas but differed among regions and between habitats. These results suggest that the protection of fishes provided by Phu Quoc MPA at the time of this study was ineffective. The taxonomic composition of fish communities has remained relatively unchanged over the last approximately 25 years, with the density of large fishes and commercial species remaining low. There is capacity to improve MPA performance by providing adequate resources for threat management and using evidence-based decision-making in management.

It provides a real-life example of adaptive learning in an environment where understanding is incomplete, but where management nonetheless has to proceed. The previous policy called for the application of fire to meet burnt area targets that were set for administrative subdivisions, and that were assessed at the scale of the entire park. This was problematic because the park is large and heterogeneous, and because sound ecological motivations that could link burning prescriptions to ecological objectives were missing. The new policy divides the park into five fire management zones on the basis of differences in mean annual rainfall, historic fire return periods, and geology. In addition, it proposes fire management actions designed to achieve specified ecological objectives in each zone, and includes fire-regime related thresholds and associated ecological outcomes against which to assess the effectiveness of management. The new policy is an improvement over previous iterations, but several challenges remain. Most important among these would be to continually improve the understanding of the effects of fire, and to develop frameworks for assessing the impacts of fire together with other ecosystem drivers that interact strongly with fire to influence the attainment of ecological objectives.

This includes managing trade-offs between social and biodiversity goals, including resource use in PAs. While some resource-use activities receive significant attention, the full suite of resources extracted from PA systems is rarely documented. This paper illustrates the potential risk of resource use to PA ecological performance through a survey of resources harvested in South Africa's national parks. Even for this comparatively well-managed suite of parks, significant data gaps preclude assessments of harvest sustainability. Harvest quantities were known for < 8% of the 341 used resources, while 23% were not identified to species level. International Union for the Conservation of Nature Red List conservation status had not been evaluated for 78% of species, and 31% of all species (83% of marine species) had not been evaluated nationally. Protected areas face ongoing pressure to balance people-based and biodiversity outcomes, but whether or not both objectives can be achieved cannot be assessed without adequate data. Managing PAs in future will require consideration of trade-offs between investing in PA expansion, increasing the monitoring and management capacity of PA agencies, and investing in the research needed to support decision making.

However, such exhaustive taxonomic lists (i.e., true surrogate of biodiversity) require extensive and expensive censuses, and the use of estimator surrogates (e.g., habitats) is an appealing alternative. In truth, surrogate effectiveness appears from the literature highly variable both in marine and terrestrial ecosystems, making it difficult to provide practical recommendations for managers. Here, we evaluate how the biodiversity reference data set and its inherent bias can influence effectiveness. Specifically, we defined habitats by geomorphology, rugosity, and benthic cover and architecture criteria, and mapped them with satellite images for a New-Caledonian site. Fish taxonomic and functional lists were elaborated from Underwater Visual Censuses, stratified according to geomorphology and exposure. We then tested if MPA networks designed to maximize habitat richness, diversity and rarity could also effectively maximize fish richness, diversity, and rarity. Effectiveness appeared highly sensitive to the fish census design itself, in relation to the type of habitat map used and the scale of analysis. Spatial distribution of habitats (estimator surrogate's distribution), quantity and location of fish census stations (target surrogate's sampling), and random processes in the MPA design all affected effectiveness to the point that one small change in the data set could lead to opposite conclusions. We suggest that previous conclusions on surrogacy effectiveness, either positive or negative, marine or terrestrial, should be considered with caution, except in instances where very dense data sets were used without pseudo-replication. Although this does not rule out the validity of using surrogates of species lists for conservation planning, the critical joint examination of both target and estimator surrogates is needed for every case study. © 2012 Van Wynsberge et al.",,,,7,7,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,"Algorithms; animal community; Animals; Anthozoa; architecture; article; benthic fauna; biodiversity; Biodiversity; Classification; Conservation of Natural Resources; coral reef; Coral Reefs; Ecosystem; Environmental Monitoring; exposure; Fishes; geomorphology; habitat use; marine protection area; Models, Biological; New Caledonia; nonhuman; outcome assessment; sensitivity analysis; species diversity; species habitat; species rarity; species richness; Species Specificity; taxonomy",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Yet, MPAs are often designed without sufficient ecological knowledge of the species they are intended to protect. This is particularly relevant to large and wide-ranging marine predators including many elasmobranchs (sharks and rays), for which region-specific space-use information is limited. Further, uncertainty remains in how to integrate movement datasets with systematic conservation planning frameworks to meet explicit conservation objectives. We addressed these knowledge gaps by combining movement models, constructed from passive acoustic telemetry data for eight elasmobranch species, and systematic conservation planning to investigate the design and adequacy of MPAs in Bimini, The Bahamas. Currently, there is a proposal for a no-take MPA in North Bimini (NBMPA), although it is unclear how this MPA would benefit elasmobranch communities if or when implemented. Our results show that although the NBMPA would contribute to elasmobranch conservation, the supplementation with an additional MPA southwest of Bimini would be necessary to protect important habitats for multiple elasmobranch species. This southwestern area was highlighted as a conservation priority area of both permanent MPA designs as well as seasonal time-area closures, regardless of NBMPA implementation status and conservation targets considered in this study. Our integrative approach also demonstrates its ability to optimize MPA designs for marine predator communities, combining multi-species movement models, constructed from acoustic telemetry datasets that include space-use estimates over multiple years, with MPA optimization tools. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,266,,Biol.

However, most studies on reef restoration have focused on the biological success, while little is known about whether social objectives are ever achieved. This study investigates a reef restoration initiative in the Spermonde archipelago, Indonesia, where food security was initially presented as an intended social outcome. We utilised an ethnographic mixed-methods approach to investigate: 1) perceived sociocultural benefits of coral restoration to the local community; 2) impacts of reef restoration on local food security; and 3) local sociocultural barriers and limitations of reef restoration as a mechanism for improving food security. We found fish contributed to food security primarily as an income source to purchase food. Local people mainly valued nearby reefs for storm protection. Furthermore, most fishers are organised through patron-client systems that target pelagic species; therefore they currently have minimal dependency on adjacent reefs. However, fishing restrictions linked to the restoration programme still negatively impacted both pelagic fishers and a small population of reef-based fishers-indirectly by damaging reciprocal fishing relations with neighbouring islands and directly by limiting access to local reefs. Complex social and trade networks associated with patron-client networks present potential barriers for transitioning to reef-based fisheries and eradicating the use of destructive fishing gear, therefore limiting access to potential food security benefits generated from reef restoration. These findings show that the relationship between coral restoration and food security is tenuous and cannot be assumed. These findings also demonstrate that social dynamics surrounding community-based conservation initiatives are complex and context-dependent, and such details must be considered when designing marine habitat restoration initiatives. © 2021 Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications.

Despite increasing evidence of their usefulness, questions remain regarding the optimal design of MPAs, in particular concerning their function as fisheries management tools, for which empirical studies are still lacking. Using 28 data sets from seven MPAs in Southern Europe, we developed a meta-analytical approach to investigate the effects of protection on adjacent fisheries and asking how these effects are influenced by MPA size and age. Southern European MPAs showed clear effects on the surrounding fisheries, on the 'catch per unit effort' (CPUE) of target species, but especially on the CPUE of the marketable catch. These effects depended on the time of protection and on the size of the no-take area. CPUE of both target species and the marketable catch increased gradually by 2-4% per year over a long time period (at least 30years). The influence of the size of the no-take area appeared to be more complex. The catch rates of the entire fishery in and around the MPA were higher when the no-take areas were smaller. Conversely, catch rates of selected fisheries that were expected to benefit most from protection increased when the no-take area was larger. Our results emphasize the importance of MPA size on its export functions and suggest that an adequate, often extended, time frame be used for the management and the evaluation of effectiveness of MPAs. © 2010 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,412-426,,4,12,,Fish Fish.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,ADJACENT; age class; BENEFITS; biodiversity; Catch per unit effort; catch statistics; COMMUNITY; conservation management; data set; economic activity; FISH POPULATIONS; fishery yields; Fishery yields; LONG-TERM; marine park; marine protected area design; Marine protected area design; marine reserve; Marine reserve; mark-recapture method; maximum sustainable yield; meta-analysis; Meta-analysis; PATTERNS; RECOVERY; RESERVES; size effect; Southern Europe; SPATIAL ASSESSMENT; spillover; Spillover; SPILLOVER,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We surveyed coral-reef fish and living hard coral in and adjacent to a sanctuary zone (SZ: where all forms of fishing are prohibited) in the World Heritage-listed Ningaloo Marine Park during a 10-year period. There were generally more individuals and greater biomass of many fish taxa (especially emperors and parrotfish) in the SZ than the adjacent recreation zone (RZ: where recreational fishing is allowed) — so log response ratios of abundance were usually positive in each year. However, despite this, there was an overall decrease in both SZ and RZ in absolute abundance of some taxa by up to 22% per year, including taxa that are explicitly targeted (emperors) by fishers and taxa that are neither targeted nor frequently captured (most wrasses and butterflyfish). A concomitant decline in the abundance (measured as percentage cover) of living hard coral of 1–7% per year is a plausible explanation for the declining abundance of butterflyfish, but declines in emperors might be more plausibly due to fishing. Our study highlights that information on temporal trends in absolute abundance is needed to assess whether the goals of protected areas are being met: in our study, patterns in absolute abundance across ten years of surveys revealed trends that simple ratios of abundance did not. © 2019, The Author(s).",,,,1,9,,Sci.

However, simple conclusions about their effects on species richness are confounded, because more species are expected to occur wherever there are more individuals. Here, there is an important distinction between the number of species per sampling unit (species density), and species richness measured as the number of species per given number of individuals. When conservation of species richness is an important goal, analyses need to discriminate between the alternative explanations for differences in the number of species. We used rarefaction to test whether species richness was higher in two 'no-take' marine reserves after controlling for differences in the density of individuals. We surveyed each reserve in three different years. There was a higher density of individuals and species in each reserve than in adjacent fished areas. However, rarefaction analyses indicated that effects on species richness were weak after controlling for the number of individuals: slightly higher species richness was recorded inside each reserve in one of three surveys, but the difference was small, and was apparent only when the maximum number of individuals was approached. Our results therefore indicate that patterns in species density were not reflected by patterns in species richness-the application of rarefaction methods is needed to determine the responses of species richness to protection elsewhere. The distinction between species density and species richness will not be important in all situations, but when it is important, inferences about species richness cannot be reliably deduced from measurements of species density. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.",,309-315,,1,171,,Oecologia,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Verlag,,,,angling; Angling; Australia; habitat conservation; marine park; Marine reserves; Ningaloo; Ningaloo Marine Park; Rarefaction; Rottnest Island; sampling; species richness; Western Australia,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

As a result, there is a risk that MPAs will not successfully protect marine biodiversity. We propose an operational framework to help prioritize the need for information, and to direct the subsequent collection of appropriate biological data. The framework consists of 7 steps: (1) formulating clearly-defined objectives, (2) a broad-scale classification based on easily accessible surrogates, (3) identifying biological variables for detailed survey, (4) assessing the utility of surrogates, (5) designing and implementing the biological survey, (6) modelling and using inferential statistics to optimize the use of existing knowledge, and (7) validating candidate areas. Each step in the framework involves identifying areas of uncertainty, and the risk that a MPA will fail to achieve its intended objectives. The aim of our operational framework is to make the risks and uncertainties clear, and to force decisions to be made to minimise their potential impact on the outcome of the MPA selection process. We identify four key ecological uncertainties in MPA identification: (1) the reliability of surrogates, (2) spatial uncertainty in survey data, (3) temporal uncertainty in the patterns of the biodiversity in the MPA, and (4) uncertainty in the degree to which important ecological processes will be maintained. We conclude that the key to success in a MPA selection process is the use of clearly specified objectives for the MPA and an explicit assessment of uncertainties involved. We contend that without a competent ecological basis, new MPAs may be little more than the political exercises to appease lobby groups, and are unlikely to be effective tools in protecting marine biodiversity from continuing decay.",,152-161,,2,6,,Pac.

For pollution, key limitations include slow and arduous processes to add chemicals for control under the Stockholm and Rotterdam Conventions and reliance at the regional level on a fragmented array of pollution studies and projects but without specific region-wide legally binding pollution standards. For climate change, the world is not on track to meet the Paris Agreement's temperature targets which is especially problematic for the Arctic cryosphere while the Arctic Council has largely been limited to providing general statements of concern and aspirational calls for enhanced climate mitigation and adaptation actions. For marine biodiversity losses, a pan-Arctic network of marine protected areas has yet to be developed and various implementation challenges surround the Agreement to Prevent Unregulated High Seas Fisheries in the Central Arctic Ocean including the need to ensure adequate financial, human resource and technical support. The paper concludes by highlighting some promising future governance directions. They include: the conclusion of a global treaty on plastic pollution; implementation of a new Global Framework on Chemicals - For a Planet Free of Harm from Chemicals and Waste; expected further clarifications from international tribunals on State responsibilities to address climate change; and regional implementation of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework and the new agreement under the UN Convention on Law of the Sea on the conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity of areas beyond national jurisdiction.  © 2024 - The authors.

International commitments include the implementation of ecosystem-based management, the establishment a network of marine protected areas, and the restoration of commercially exploited fish stocks. However, the international commitments tend to be quite general in nature with the precise governance implications of key principles, such as precaution and the ecosystem approach, being open to interpretation, thus leaving considerable room for discretion in implementation. Consequently, a plethora of soft law documents has emerged to provide more specific guidance to decision-makers and progressively develop international law and policy. Nationally, Canada has embraced a long list of commitments that are supportive of sustaining marine biodiversity through legislation and numerous policy-related documents. Nonetheless, Canada has left many of these commitments unfulfilled or inadequately fulfilled, such as (i) the development of integrated management plans for coastal and marine waters, (ii) the implementation of the precautionary approach for Canada's fisheries, and (iii) the establishment of recovery strategies and identification of critical habitat for species at risk. Although the goal of effective protection of marine biodiversity in Canada appears to be guided by international and national commitments, there remains a clear need to fully implement, operationalize, and strengthen these commitments as articulated in the Oceans Act, fisheries management-related policies, the Species at Risk Act, and others. © 2012 Published by NRC Research Press.",,312-352,,4,20,,Environ Rev,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Biodiversity; Decision makers; Ecosystem approach; Ecosystem-based management; Ecosystems; Fish stock; Fisheries; Integrated management; Marine biodiversity; Marine protected area; Marine protected areas; Marine waters; Oceans; Pesticide effects; Policy; Precautionary approach; Public policy; Recovery strategies; Species at risks,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, the protected areas are very often located on the state boundaries and in many cases neighbour just on the boundary. Also establishment of Natura 2000 Network as the ""Habitats"" and ""Birds"" Directives invoked the need for interoperable, accessible and harmonised datasets in the European Union. The need to have information on nature conservation geo-referenced and available at the EU level increases in recent years due to a trend by European park authorities to develop management rules that respect the natural boundaries rather than the administrative ones, which often implies an international approach. Moreover, the required multi-disciplinary approach to environmental issues implies the management of seamless geo-information in the different application fields. These studies require a comparison of different environmental datasets such as protected sites boundaries, habitats, species distribution, water bodies and other elements as for instance designed railway. According to the INSPIRE philosophy the different datasets should be made available and re-usable at the EU level through the use of common standards and interoperable services. Also multilingual and multicultural aspects are very important for such data exchange. Nature-SDIplus Network aims, through state-of-the-art methodologies and best practice examples, to improve harmonisation of national datasets and make them more accessible and exploitable. Therefore, it contributes to the INSPIRE implementation with specific reference to a cluster of data themes on nature conservation. The main objective of the Nature-SDIplus Network is to: involve new stakeholders; share data and best practices; improve and stimulate exploitation and the re-use of information on nature conservation. © 2009 All Rights Reserved by the International Multidisciplinary Scientific GeoConference SGEM Printed in Sofia, Bulgaria.",,43-48,,,2,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Int.

One proposed mechanism for conserving ocean resources is the Marine Protected Area (MPA), conceptualized as a zoning system for the portions of the ocean under U.S. jurisdiction. This has been highlighted by the issuance of the Revised Draft Framework for Developing the National System of Marine Protected Areas (Draft Framework), issued on March 17, 2008, by the National Marine Protected Areas Center, part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The introduction of H.R. 21 in the 110th Congress has also focused attention on the health of ocean resources. The relative merits and the potentially negative consequences of such an MPA system have been widely discussed. Advocates of additional protection argue that a more comprehensive system as outlined in the Draft Framework should be established. Others argue that the current system is effectively managing ocean resources and that additional restrictions would be economically harmful. Apart from the relative merits of each position, there is some question as to the applicability of current federal law to the oceans and whether new protections could be imposed administratively, without additional legislation. To some extent, regulatory authority depends upon the nature of the jurisdiction that the United States has claimed over various ocean resources vis-a-vis other nations and vis-a-vis the states. Consistent with international law, the United States claims jurisdiction over marine areas extending 200 nautical miles from its coast and has regulated resources in the zones composing this area under multiple legal authorities. Several current laws which might provide authority for the creation of MPAs are aimed specifically at the ocean environment. The National Marine Sanctuary Program, established by the Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act, the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, and the Coastal Zone Management Act each specifically contemplate various levels and forms of aquatic resource protection. Additionally, certain generally applicable laws, while primarily intended for use on land, would arguably support the designation of an MPA in some circumstances. Indeed, U.S. MPAs within the territorial seas have been established as national monuments, national parks, national wildlife areas, and, most recently, as a reserve via executive order. This report outlines U.S. jurisdiction over ocean resources and analyzes the existing laws to assess their application to marine environments. © 2010 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.

Following the example of ecocertified logging companies, we argue that other extractive industries managing large concessions should engage in antipoaching activities as part of their environmental management plans. Onshore hydrocarbon concessions should also adopt antipoaching protocols as a standard because they represent a biodiversity threat comparable to logging. We examined the spatiotemporal patterns of small- and large-mammal poaching in an onshore oil concession in Gabon, Central Africa, with a Bayesian occupancy model based on signs of poaching collected from 2010 to 2015 on antipoaching patrols. Patrol locations were initially determined based on local intelligence and past patrol successes (adaptive management) and subsequently with a systematic sampling of the concession. We generated maps of poaching probability in the concession and determined the temporal trends of this threat over 5 years. The spatiotemporal patterns of large- and small-mammal poaching differed throughout the concession, and likely these groups will need different management strategies. By elucidating the relationship between site-specific sampling effort and detection probability, the Bayesian method allowed us to set goals for future antipoaching patrols. Our results indicate that a combination of systematic sampling and adaptive management data is necessary to infer spatiotemporal patterns with the statistical method we used. On the basis of our case study, we recommend hydrocarbon companies interested in implementing efficient antipoaching activities in their onshore concessions to lay the foundation of long-needed industry standards by: adequately measuring antipoaching effort; mixing adaptive management and balanced sampling; setting goals for antipoaching effort; pairing patrols with large-mammal monitoring; supporting antipoaching patrols across the landscape; restricting access to their concessions; performing random searches for bushmeat and mammal products at points of entry; controlling urban and agricultural expansion; supporting bushmeat alternatives; and supporting land-use planning.

One of the key issues in the management of protected areas is their access regulation in order to avoid negative effects of trampling on natural and semi-natural habitats. Protection measures need to be carefully designed to achieve an effective protection of biodiversity while minimizing as possible the constraints to tourism development. The accurate design and monitoring of performance of such measures needs effective methods to evaluate fragmentation. In this work, we aimed at the development of a consistent method for the automatic recognition of linear environmental impacts (paths and tracks) on natural and semi-natural habitats using colour aerial photo- graphs. The method is based on a multi-scale segmentation of the images. Brightness, shape and connectivity criteria were implemented at several scales of analysis by means of a fuzzy knowledge base, allowing the recognition of linear elements corresponding to networks of trails. We used as study case a protected area in the NW coast of the Iberian Peninsula with a complex vegetation pattern. The method allowed the general discrimination of linear artificial features, causing environmental impacts and human- driven habitat fragmentation, against other linear elements with similar brightness and shape, but different thematic meaning regarding their conservation implications. © 2008, Springer Berlin Heidelberg.

Olympus, the highest mountain in Greece, is a biosphere reserve and a magnet for countless visitors. In the wider area of Olympus, at least 1,700 species and subspecies of plants are recorded, 26 of which are endemic. Most of the endemics only occur in the high or subalpine zone, which is expected to be strongly affected by climate change or in specific microsites that might be affected by several other factors. Thus, the unique flora of the mountain will probably become extinct. Ex situ conservation can be utilized to prevent and even reverse this trend and preserve plant diversity for future generations. The aim of the present study was to develop reproduction protocols for the endemic species on Mt. Olympus, Centaurea incompleta, Centaurea litochorea and Viola striis-notata, to facilitate their mass production, either for ex situ conservation or reintroduction into their natural habitats, if necessary. Seeds of the target species were collected in summer 2021. In a sample of the collected seeds, the embryo viability was checked using sequentially 1% w/v tetrazolium solution and Evans blue solution concentration of 0.25% w/v. As for the germination tests, two treatments were used to terminate seed dormancy: (a) cold stratification at 2 oc, and (b) imbibition in gibberellic acid (250 ppm) for 48 hours. The results showed that more than 75% of the embryos in the fertile seeds were viable. In the seed germination tests, treatment with gibberellic acid resulted in germination percentages for Centaurea incompleta and Viola striis-notata are equal to or very close to the seed viability percentage. In contrast, no treatment was successful for Centaurea litochorea, as the control germination percentage was higher.  © 2023 The Authors.",,23-40,,1,13,,Eur. J. of Environ.

This trend is reflected in England's waters, where 34.7% of waters are protected. MPA network creation can displace activities (primarily fisheries) that are thought to be incompatible with the habitats and species of conservation importance that the network has been established to protect. There is also an obligation on the UK Government to ensure that all of its waters achieve Good Environmental Status (GES) by 2020 under the Marine Strategy Framework Directive. The designation of MPAs and the subsequent introduction of management measures that displace activities may result in unintended impacts/consequences on protected benthic habitats or species within (a) the MPA where management measures have been introduced, (b) other MPAs or (c) wider UK or international waters. An incomplete understanding of the extent and type of fishing that is occurring within the MPA network (and throughout English waters in general), coupled with a paucity of information regarding how fishing effort is displaced as a result of MPA designation, may hinder the achievement of both GES by 2020 and MPA management goals. Better understanding of fishing effort displacement can inform the siting of future MPAs, aid marine spatial planning and improve existing MPA management. To aid the better description and understanding of the various facets of fisheries effort displacement, this paper proposes for the first time a structure to differentiate the types of fisheries displacement.

Despite recent advances, assessments of cultural services still lack an explicit temporal dimension, which is relevant for developing monitoring systems. Here, we evaluate the spatiotemporal contributions of non-native trees to landscape aesthetics and nature recreation in a National Park in Portugal. We use a multimodel framework to understand how those cultural services (evaluated from social media photos) relate to the environmental context (physical and visual accessibility, and wilderness; derived from ancillary GIS data) and landscape visual-sensory features (colour diversity, landscape heterogeneity, and vegetation functioning). The latter were computed from satellite imagery (MODIS and Sentinel-2 MSI sensors) for the four seasons of the year: Winter, Spring, Summer and Autumn. We found that, during Autumn, contributions of non-native trees prevailed mostly in landscapes with greater colour diversity (green-band, Sentinel 2). During Spring, their contributions prevailed in landscapes with lower wilderness and heterogeneous levels. In Winter, those contributions were less evident in more remote areas. As for Summer, no significant relations were found for those cultural contributions. These results are congruent with the phenology of dominant tree species: deciduous natives occurring with coniferous non-natives and evergreen invaders, leading to higher colour diversity in Autumn, versus the dominance of blooming invaders in accessible areas during Spring. Results also seem to match the seasonal dynamics of touristic demand in the National Park: the pursuit of wilder areas for ecotourism in Winter, versus the experience of popular recreational activities in Summer. We discuss the usefulness of Earth observations in the research of cultural services and, particularly, for supporting SDG targets 15.8 (on invasive species), 8.9 (touristic revenues) and 12.8 (nature awareness). © 2019 Elsevier Inc.",,,,,230,,Remote Sens.

Generally, the first step to obtain maps of essential fish habitats consists in choosing one of the numerous existing statistical approaches to build robust habitat suitability models linking relevant descriptors of the marine environment to the spatial distribution of fish presence or density. When these descriptors are exhaustively known, i.e. maps are available for each of them, geo-referenced predictions from these models and their related uncertainty may be imported into Geographic Information Systems for the quantitative identification and characterization of key sites for the marine living resources. The usefulness of such quantitative maps for management purposes is endless. These maps allow for the quantitative identification of the different habitats that are required for these marine resources to complete their life cycles and enable to measure their respective importance for population renewal and conservation. The consequences of anthropogenic pressures, not only fishing but also land reclamation, aggregate extractions or degradation of habitat quality (e.g. nutrient excess or xenobiotics loadings, invasive species or global change), on living resources, may also be simulated from such habitat models. These quantitative maps may serve as input in specific spatial planning software or to spatialise population or fishery dynamics, ecosystem or trophic models that may then be used to simulate various scenarios. Fish habitat maps thus may help decision makers to select relevant protection areas and design coherent MPA networks and management levels which objectives are to sustain fishing resources and fisheries. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019.

A total of 515 capsules were collected corresponding to 10 species. Four species accounted for 87.6% of the total catch: Psammobatis normani, Bathyraja macloviana, Amblyraja doellojuradoi and Bathyraja brachyurops. The remaining corresponded to Schroederichthys bivius, Psammobatis rudis, Zearaja chilensis, Bathyraja albomaculata, Psammobatis lentiginosa and Bathyraja sp. Most hauls were monospecific and relatively few hauls contained four or five species (southern part of the area, in sites located at 75 and 94–105?m depth). No egg capsules were recorded between 1712?m and 3447?m. Highest densities (>3000 capsules/km2) were mainly found between 39°46.2? and 40°29.9?S from 85 to 105?m and they were also recorded near the Mar del Plata Canyon at 37°59.7?S and at 852?m. The highest value recorded was 12,326 capsules/km2 (located at 40°18.9?S and 85.4?m). The highest densities for each of the most abundant species are discussed. The finding of high densities of egg cases near the Argentine shelf-break front indicates that many skate species use this area as a nursery site.

Spiny lobster (Panulirus argus) is the target of the main fishery within cooperative concessions. Fishers are uniquely positioned to enforce and monitor NTZs and evaluate their effectiveness. This study analyzes fishers' perceptions as indicators of social acceptance of NTZs, and identifies facilitating factors and challenges of the community-based process. Consistent with similar studies, responses of fishers (89 out of a population of 124) to a semi-structured interview showed that perceptions of NTZs largely reflect fishers' concerns and interests. A high proportion of fishers accurately identified main NTZ objectives of regulation, conservation and economic improvement, as well as NTZ locations. Further, fishers cared about ecosystem sustainability and, because NTZs would not significantly limit their main economic activity, endorsed the initiative while expecting additional benefits. Declining trends in lobster catch influenced a perceived need for NTZs. Major concerns were that illegal fishers would reap NTZ benefits and that economic impacts and benefits were uncertain. Most fishers found the decision-making process inclusive, were willing to take responsibility for enforcing NTZs and believed people leading the process were trustworthy. Differences in endorsement of NTZs among cooperatives points to the importance of understanding fishers' incentives to collaborate, and the leadership and organizational dynamics which shape participatory processes. This analysis highlights challenges in advancing NTZs in complex ecological, socio-economic and regulatory contexts. It underscores the need for community-based processes that transcend understanding of conservation measures but also invests in sustainable, operative and trustful working relationships, as well as the urgency of interdisciplinary approaches in ensuring effective design and implementation of this relatively new fishery management tool. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.",,171-181,,,45,,Mar.

This can only be achieved through integrated management of environmental protection and the rational use of living and non-living resources. However, no management plan that aims at sustainable development can be successful unless the human factor is included. The concept of ecosystem-based management considers socio-economic issues in evaluating management effectiveness.

This technique is developed further to measure the effectiveness of integrated coastal management, using a Marine Protected Area (MPA) as an example. Stakeholder input is essential at an early stage to ensure MPA management success, providing the opportunity to include public participation and ensure community support.

Excirolana braziliensis is one of the most abundant species on exposed sandy beaches, both urbanized and preserved, of Rio de Janeiro in southeast Brazil. Considering the negative effects of urbanization and human pressure on sandy beaches, this study aimed to analyze the population structure and reproductive aspects of E. braziliensis in different stretches of Barra da Tijuca beach (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil), which differ with respect to urbanization and occupation by bathers. Monthly samplings of E. braziliensis were conducted throughout 12 months within urbanized and preserved stretches, including measurements of beach parameters and human pressure. The anthropogenic effect seems to be a relevant factor in explaining the variability in the population structure of this species. Negative significant correlations were found between the species density and the number of visitors, who massively occupies the urbanized stretches. Similar life history strategies were observed for different populations of E. braziliensis. Although high fecundity rates were reported to all stretches, the probability of eggs/embryos survival under the adverse conditions provided by the Barra da Tijuca beach is not clearly known. According to the results of this study, it could be inferred that the human pressure over Barra da Tijuca beach affects the populations: (1) directly, through human trampling and/or natural habitat jeopardizing; or (2) indirectly, by the isolation of individuals in the preserved stretch, located between environments subjected to intense disturbance. In such case, the species strategy to thrive in a protected area of restricted size, within a highly urbanized and occupied area by bathers does not appear to be the best conservation measure for peracarid species, as in E. braziliensis. Nevertheless, E. braziliensis turned out to be a good monitoring species of impacts due to its high resistance to environmental stress, persisting in highly urbanized areas dominated by bathers. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

The optimal design of these conservation networks is most frequently based on the modeled habitat suitability or probability of occurrence of species, despite evidence that model predictions may not be highly correlated with species density. We hypothesized that conservation networks designed using species density distributions more efficiently conserve populations of all species considered than networks designed using probability of occurrence models. To test this hypothesis, we used the Zonation conservation prioritization algorithm to evaluate conservation network designs based on probability of occurrence versus density models for 26 land bird species in the U.S. Pacific Northwest. We assessed the efficacy of each conservation network based on predicted species densities and predicted species diversity. High-density model Zonation rankings protected more individuals per species when networks protected the highest priority 10-40% of the landscape. Compared with density-based models, the occurrence-based models protected more individuals in the lowest 50% priority areas of the landscape. The 2 approaches conserved species diversity in similar ways: predicted diversity was higher in higher priority locations in both conservation networks. We conclude that both density and probability of occurrence models can be useful for setting conservation priorities but that density-based models are best suited for identifying the highest priority areas. Developing methods to aggregate species count data from unrelated monitoring efforts and making these data widely available through ecoinformatics portals such as the Avian Knowledge Network will enable species count data to be more widely incorporated into systematic conservation planning efforts. © 2015, Society for Conservation Biology.",,1217-1227,,4,29,,Conserv.

In the case of marine protected areas (MPAs), a common indicator of success is the amount of biodiversity protected within them. However, there are many cases where the information for the official MPA boundary is not available, making it difficult to precisely measure the indicator. A solution to this problem is to create circular buffers around the centre location of MPAs for which boundaries are missing, equivalent in area to that reported officially for the MPA. The Coral Triangle Atlas provides the opportunity to quantify more precisely the validity of using buffers as proxies for MPA boundaries both at national and regional scales in the Coral Triangle. We used 612 existing MPA boundaries, converted them into point data at their centroids and then created circular buffers of area equal to that of the MPAs' original polygons. Errors in estimated area of protected coral reefs were used to measure the bias created by the centroid buffers. We obtained an underestimation of protected coral reef area, both at the scale of the Coral Triangle region and at a national scale when using centroid buffers, with a larger underestimation as more MPA boundary proxies were used. We found that the size of MPA does not have a significant effect on the percentage of bias when MPAs are smaller than 100 km2 at a national level, and smaller than 1000 km2 at a regional level. With less than 15% of the total MPAs in the CT region larger than 100 km2, these results suggest that using buffers at a national scale for small MPAs may be a good solution to missing boundaries and cheaper than trying to collect exact information if working at a national or multinational scale. However, for countries with large MPAs such as Indonesia, using this proxy system will tend to create a larger error. At a regional scale, such as the Coral Triangle region, an estimation of total protected coral reef using buffers as MPA boundaries proxies will produce a small underestimation, thus, producing conservative results of protected coral reef area. This study shows the importance of assessing the bias introduced by using proxies for MPA boundaries when measuring indicators of conservation target achievement for coastal and marine areas. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

Hydrocarbon extractive activities pose threats to native marine biodiversity, such as noise, light, and chemical pollution, physical changes to the sea floor, invasive species, and greenhouse gas emissions. Here, we assessed at a global scale the spatial overlap between offshore hydrocarbon activities and marine biodiversity (>25,000 species, nine major ecosystems, and marine protected areas), and quantify the changes over time. We discovered that two-thirds of global offshore hydrocarbon activities occur in areas within the top 10% for species richness, range rarity, and proportional range rarity values globally. Thus, while hydrocarbon activities are undertaken in less than one percent of the ocean's area, they overlap with approximately 85% of all assessed species. Of conservation concern, 4% of species with the largest proportion of their range overlapping hydrocarbon activities are range restricted, potentially increasing their vulnerability to localized threats such as oil spills. While hydrocarbon activities have extended to greater depths since the mid-1990s, we found that the largest overlap is with coastal ecosystems, particularly estuaries, saltmarshes and mangroves. Furthermore, in most countries where offshore hydrocarbon exploration licensing blocks have been delineated, they do not overlap with marine protected areas (MPAs). Although this is positive in principle, many countries have far more licensing block areas than protected areas, and in some instances, MPA coverage is minimal. These findings suggest the need for marine spatial prioritization to help limit future spatial overlap between marine conservation priorities and hydrocarbon activities.

Quantifying and mitigating conflicts and impact on sensitive coastal environments through jointly-optimized objectives for aquaculture and biodiversity simultaneously has not been tested yet. We here develop and evaluate six alternative planning scenarios for one of the European Union's highest priority bivalve shellfish aquaculture areas, the Emilia-Romagna Region in Italy. We i) develop an aquaculture profitability surface as a function of the distance from main ports, and in parallel build a fine-scale aquaculture suitability distribution surface for important commercial species using multi-criteria analysis; ii) prioritize protected areas for biodiversity while testing how different considerations of human impacts influence priorities; iii) simultaneously plan for aquaculture and biodiversity while minimizing impacts on other maritime activities. We compare results from different scenarios according to how well they capture suitable aquaculture habitats and minimize impacts. We introduce a new evaluation method for scenario comparison in spatial optimization using a nearest-neighbor analysis for spatial pattern similarities. Lastly, we test the “value of information” provided by our investment in developing the fine-scale suitability surface to improve efficiencies. We find that an integrated multi-objective zoning approach, which simultaneously optimizes for biodiversity and aquaculture, supports more efficient planning than traditional sector specific growth strategies. We also discovered that the fine-scale suitability model delivered a 5% more efficient solution than the simple distance function, highlighting the role of proxy cost surfaces and diminished returns from investing in comprehensive habitat suitability analysis in regions without much variation in key parameters. We offer evidence of improved efficiency and practical guidance for integrated planning in Blue Growth agendas. Our analysis can be applied in any context where multiple objectives occur for aquaculture sector growth and biodiversity conservation. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,785,,Sci.

Yet, occurrence of lions as a single population makes them vulnerable to extinction from genetic and environmental factors. Asiatic lions exist as a single free ranging population of 360 individuals in Gir Protected Area (PA; about 290 lions) and surrounding satellite areas (68 lions), namely Girnar Wildlife Sanctuary (WLS), coastal areas, hill ranges extending from Mitiyala-Savarkundla-Palitana-Shihor spreading across Junagadh, Amreli and Bhavnagar districts of Gujarat State, India. This paper traces the conservation history, current conservation pressures, and critically evaluates current conservation planning based on lion ecology and existing anthropogenic pressures. Conservation proposals for translocation of lions to alternate habitats in Kuno WLS and Barda WLS are awaiting final implementation. An alternate initiative is aimed at developing satellite lion habitats, improving corridor connectivity, and facilitating natural dispersal and expansion of lion habitats. The paper evaluates human population living within 2 km boundary of lion habitats and between Gir PA and satellite habitats to show that dispersing lions have to cross heavily populated habitations taking refuge in agriculture fields and scattered forest patches. Satellite habitats vary in size from 18 km2 (Mitiyala WLS) to 250 km2 (scattered forests Hipavadli-Savarkundla-Palitana zone along Shetrunji river) and are inadequate to maintain natural ranging and movement requirements of territorial lions. These habitats are varied in vegetation, terrain, human pressure, and distance to source population. Though satellite lion habitats are important suboptimal habitats for dispersing lions, long-term conservation planning require planned restoration of mosaic habitats for growing populations. © Springer-Verlag 2009.",,209-213,,2,56,,Eur.

The present study empirically evaluated the vulnerability of forest stands that make up the subtropical Perequę River mangrove (Paranaguá Bay, S Brazil) as the basis for a more appropriate management of its resources. This mangrove is located in the coastal municipality of Pontal do Paraná (Paraná, Brazil) and is part of the Perequę River Mangrove Natural Park, which is still not under a management plan. This study aimed to contribute to the future management plan of this conservation unit through an environmental diagnosis and an empirical evaluation of its vulnerability. The primary data, collected from 51 plots of 100m2 each, involved the evaluation of: 1) the exposure to solid waste, deforestation, trails, landfills, and constructions; 2) the degree of sensitivity according to the environmental conditions of each plot; and 3) the adaptive capacity according to the recovery and reproductive potential and structural complexity of the forests. These data were integrated to compose the empirical index of environmental vulnerability (VI) expressed as VI=(SI+EI)-ACI where SI is the sensitivity sub-index, EI is the exposure sub-index, and ACI is the adaptive capacity sub-index. Empirical indices calculated for local forests varied significantly due to differences in values of SI, EI and ACI. This variability defines the local mangrove as a mosaic of vulnerability conditions and suggests that the planning and implementation of local management actions consider such environmental heterogeneity. Applying or extending these actions should be based on local forest conditions at short spatial scales and should not be applied to the mangrove as a whole. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,289-298,,,145,,J.

Recreational fishing is strictly regulated inside Italian Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) and is generally allocated to local residents, mainly to reduce the tensions caused by limitations of access to the resources. The aim of this study was to provide an analysis of recreational fishing activities within the Portofino MPA (Mediterranean Sea), to assess the possible impact on the local fish stocks and to plan potential management actions. Furthermore, some serious inconsistencies on the minimum lengths of fish caught as defined by law relative to the minimum size of first reproduction are discussed. Since 2014, all anglers exploiting the Portofino MPA have been obliged to fill out a logbook. The compilation of these was not completely satisfactory, when compared with a group of reliable anglers whose catches were accurately monitored, but allowed for estimated yields of about 24 kg/angler/yr. After 15 years of protection, the fish biomass has increased within the Portofino MPA, generating a positive spillover effect. At the same time, it has attracted many anglers whose gross harvesting was estimated at about 8 t/year, representing about the 8% of the total yield of the local small-scale fishery. © 2017 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,382-391,,5,24,,Fish.

In practice however, the design of marine-protected area (MPA) systems often relies on broad classifications of habitat class and size, making the tacit assumption that all reefs are of comparable condition. We explored the impact of this assumption through a novel, pragmatic approach for incorporating variability in coral cover in a large-scale regional spatial prioritization plan. Location: The Coral Triangle. Methods: We developed a spatially explicit predictive model of hard coral cover based on freely available macro-ecological data to generate a complete regional map of coral cover as a proxy for reef condition. We then incorporate this information in spatial conservation prioritization software Marxan to design an MPA system that meets specific conservation objectives. Results: We discover prioritizations using area-based representation of reef habitat alone may overestimate the conservation benefit, defined as the amount of hard coral cover protected, by up to 64%. We find substantial differences in conservation priorities and an overall increase in habitat quality metrics when accounting for predicted coral cover. Main conclusions: This study shows that including habitat condition in a large-scale marine spatial prioritization is feasible within time and resource constraints, and calls for increased implementation, and evaluation, of such ecologically relevant planning approaches to enhance potential conservation effectiveness. © 2019 The Authors.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are an emerging tool to cope with such threats. In the Dutch Wadden Sea, large MPAs (covering 31% of all intertidal flats) have been created to protect shellfish-eating birds and allow recovery of important habitats. Even though shellfish fishing is prohibited in these areas, populations of shellfish-eating birds in the Wadden Sea have declined sharply. The role of shellfish fisheries in these declines is hotly debated, therefore, we investigated the effectiveness of MPAs for protecting oystercatcher (Haematopus ostralegus) populations. Shellfish stocks (cockles, Cerastoderma edule) were substantially higher in the MPAs, but surprisingly this has not resulted in a redistribution of wintering oystercatchers. Oystercatchers in unprotected areas had less shellfish in their diet and lower condition (a combined measure of mass and haematological parameters), and their estimated mortality was 43% higher. It is likely, therefore, that shellfish fishing explains at least part of the 40% decline in oystercatcher numbers in recent years. Condition and mortality effects were strongest in males, and the population sex ratio was female biased, in agreement with the fact that males rely more on shellfish. The unprotected areas apparently function as an ""ecological trap,"" because oystercatchers did not respond as anticipated to the artificial spatial heterogeneity in food supply. Consequently, the MPAs are effective on a local scale, but not on a global scale. Similar problems are likely to exist in terrestrial ecosystems, and distribution strategies of target species need to be considered when designing terrestrial and marine protected areas if they are to be effective.

This realization has led to an escalation of the efforts to influence human behavior toward the adoption of more sustainable alternatives, more recently through the use of social marketing theory and tools. However, these initiatives have traditionally suffered from a lack of robust impact evaluation, which limits not only accountability but also a practitioner’s ability to learn and improve over time. We evaluated three social marketing campaigns conducted in the Philippines, which aimed at increasing the sustainability of local fisheries. To achieve this, we used the results not only from questionnaire surveys but also from biological and enforcement data. We found that although there is some evidence of impact around human behavior and perceptions of conservation results, those changes did not translate into biological outcomes during the 2-year time frame considered in this evaluation. We discuss many of the barriers to causal inference that still remain, particularly if causal links between outcomes and specific interventions are to be drawn, but also showcase how this current methodology can help us go further than the more basic approaches to impact evaluation commonly used. Lastly, we highlight a number of lessons learned from this experience in seeking a practical, ethical, and effective approach to impact evaluation. © 2017, © The Author(s) 2017.",,18-34,,1,24,,Soc.

To assess the impact of turf algae on corals, we investigated the effects of increased nutrients (eutrophication) on the interaction between the Caribbean coral Montastraea annularis and turf algae at their growth boundary. We also assessed whether herbivores are capable of reducing the abundance of turf algae at coral-algae boundaries. We found that turf algae cause visible (overgrowth) and invisible negative effects (reduced fitness) on neighbouring corals. Corals can overgrow neighbouring turf algae very slowly (at a rate of 0.12 mm 3 wk-1) at ambient nutrient concentrations, but turf algae overgrew corals (at a rate of 0.34 mm 3 wk-1) when nutrients were experimentally increased. Exclusion of herbivores had no measurable effect on the rate turf algae overgrew corals. We also used PAM fluorometry (a common approach for measuring of a colony's ""fitness"") to detect the effects of turf algae on the photophysiology of neighboring corals. Turf algae always reduced the effective photochemical efficiency of neighbouring corals, regardless of nutrient and/or herbivore conditions. The findings that herbivores are not capable of controlling the abundance of turf algae and that nutrient enrichment gives turf algae an overall competitive advantage over corals together have serious implications for the health of Caribbean coral reef systems. At ambient nutrient levels, traditional conservation measures aimed at reversing coral-to-algae phase shifts by reducing algal abundance (i.e., increasing herbivore populations by establishing Marine Protected Areas or tightening fishing regulations) will not necessarily reduce the negative impact of turf algae on local coral communities. Because turf algae have become the most abundant benthic group on Curac ?ao (and likely elsewhere in the Caribbean), new conservation strategies are required to mitigate their negative impact on coral communities. © 2010 Vermeij et al.",,,,12,5,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,alga; algae; animal; animal food; Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena; Animals; Anthozoa; article; Caribbean Region; Central America; concentration (parameters); Conservation of Natural Resources; coral; coral reef; Coral Reefs; ecology; Ecology; environment; Environment; environmental health; environmental impact; environmental protection; eutrophication; fish; Fishes; fishing; fluorometry; Fluorometry; fungal community; growth rate; herbivore; methodology; Montastraea annularis; Netherlands Antilles; nonhuman; photochemistry; Photochemistry; physiology; red alga; Rhodophyta,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We conducted a large-scale camera trapping survey in five systematic grids across central-eastern Namibia to identify drivers of large carnivore occupancy and to predict occurrence across a broader mixed-use landscape spanning 161,629 km2. Through targeted searches for intensive-use areas and pooling detections across camera trap stations, we reliably detected the most elusive carnivores. We identified a diminished large carnivore guild with the two top predators (lion (Panthera leo) and spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta)) functionally absent, although present historically. While brown hyenas (Parahyaena brunnea) were omnipresent, we found local variations in guild composition. African wild dogs (Lycaon pictus) were more common near their resident population eastwards and in areas of greater vegetation productivity. The distribution of cheetahs (Acinonyx jubatus) was determined by the proportional cover of grass, consequently woody encroachment of grasslands may pose a threat. Leopard (Panthera pardus) occurrence was low in areas with a high human footprint, and high in areas with rugged terrain and greater vegetation productivity. The diminished large carnivore guild with contrasting species-habitat associations may enable persistence of subordinate carnivores, such as the cheetah and African wild dog, across this mixed-use landscape. However, we underscore the importance of multi-species conservation approaches to maintain ecological interactions. The large proportion (80 %) of suitable habitat identified, i.e. where probability of occupancy exceeded 0.5, is an encouraging outcome for the region's potential to hold value for carnivore persistence and potentially recolonization. Considering the limited space for protected area expansion, holistic conservation approaches are warranted to ensure viable large carnivore guilds and functional ecosystems. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,297,,Biol.

To fulfill their ecological functions, protected areas must be connected to their surroundings, a requirement that is difficult to meet in landscapes intensively disturbed by anthropogenic activities. Therefore, protecting movement corridors at the edges of protected areas is crucial, especially for species with broad habitat needs, such as the American marten (Martes americana). However, habitat selection and space use patterns are dynamic processes, so we could expect that functional connectivity would vary temporally in response to changing environmental conditions and levels of human activities. In this study, we aimed at predicting the location of movement corridors for the American marten in Forillon National Park and its periphery during two contrasted periods (snow-free: May-November; snow-covered: December-April). We used ""seasonal"" resource selection functions to identify core areas (interpreted as circuit ""nodes"") and CircuitScape to delineate movement corridors between them based on the electrical circuit theory. Habitat selection patterns differed between periods, with martens avoiding open areas, high elevations and road proximity during the snow-free period, while avoiding areas closer to secondary roads but selecting areas closer to primary roads and housing structures during the snow-covered period. Consequently, the location of movement corridors differed partially between periods. Functional connectivity was favored by the presence of forest patches for both periods, while being constrained by open environments, especially during the snow-free period. Our study highlights the importance of modeling functional connectivity at fine temporal scales in order to provide movement corridors that fulfill the requirements of a species at each period of its annual cycle.",,,,6,15,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001241942400001,,,,,,,biological period; carnivore; circuit theory; CONSERVATION; FOREST; FRAGMENTATION; GPS telemetry; habitat selection; HABITAT SELECTION; LANDSCAPE CONNECTIVITY; Martes americana; movement corridors; POPULATION; protected area; PROTECTED AREAS; RESOURCE SELECTION; ROE DEER; SPACE-USE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

For PNV, an existing but slightly updated and modified Italian Vegetation Series (VS) map was used. Each VS type corresponds to vegetation complexes that live under homogeneous environmental conditions and can each be considered an ecological land unit at the working scale employed here. Using GIS techniques, the geographic layers of PAs and VS were processed with spatial intersection to extract and quantify the VS contained within the boundaries of PAs. As a minimum conservation goal, we used the widely accepted 10% target threshold. It was found that, even though Tuscan PAs covered almost 20% of the total land surface, 94% of VS types resulted to be included in PAs with a percentage of at least 10% of their total area. The survey shows that the VS with the higher degree of inclusion in PAs are distributed in the Mediterranean Tuscany (coast and Tuscan Archipelago) and in some inner areas such as Apuan region, northern Apennines, Amiata Mt. and Farma-Merse Valley. Two VS types must be considered under-protected (i.e. contained in an existing PA network with percentages < 10%). We propose a simple GIS procedure based on certain priority assumptions: (a) existing PAs should be enlarged rather than new ones created and (b) their naturalness taken into account. This procedure produces a suitability map useful for identifying the best areas in which a local administration might look for solutions to bridge the gaps. © 2014 Societŕ Botanica Italiana.",,62-72,,1,150,,Plant Biosyst.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Taylor and Francis Ltd.,,,,ARCHIPELAGO; CLASSIFICATION; Conservation; CONSERVATION; IMPORTANT PLANT AREAS; LANDSCAPE; NETWORK; PARKS; PRIORITIZATION; rapid assessment; vegetation series,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The present study aimed at identifying priority conservation areas for bats in the state of Espírito Santo using a systematic conservation-planning framework, considering current climatic scenarios and projections of climate change to 2080. To define suitable areas within the state to each species in both scenarios (present and future), we used the climate envelope approach with the software Maxent. To select the planning units, we used two target sets: (i) species representation in 17% and 40% of the suitable area for the species within the state, and (ii) species representation in 17% and 40% within the state's area. Patterns of species richness predicted to the current and the future scenarios were similar, however, it was possible to observe a future increase in species richness for the north part of the state. When the representation target was more ambitious, to maintain 40% of the suitable area to the state, we observed the need to add new areas close to the current protected areas.

Spatial closures, such as marine protected areas, can be valuable tools for maintaining and restoring exploited populations. When these spatial closures adopt a dynamic nature being adapted to the changing environment, they can effectively account for factors such as shifting species distributions, which enhances their potential to achieve ecological and socio-economic objectives. Here, we adapted a decision-support tool (the software Marxan), typically used for selecting static and permanent areas, to produce management recommendations that integrate permanent and temporal closures to fisheries. Our aim was to compare the outputs of a static network of permanent no-take reserves with four other dynamic scenarios, including permanent and temporal closures that account for seasonal variations in the populations of species. All scenarios prioritized sites for the conservation of one of the most valuable European fishing stocks, the Norway lobster (Nephrops norvegicus). Additionally, we considered 12 other commercially exploited species captured by the Norway lobster fishery. The assessed outputs included retained biomass, area extent, closure type (permanent and seasonal) and opportunity costs within each scenario. We observed that all dynamic scenarios required fewer management areas permanently closed than the static scenario. This resulted in a lower opportunity cost for fisheries but also a higher capacity for biodiversity conservation. Therefore, complementing permanent with temporal closures could enhance biodiversity conservation and fisheries management. The novel dynamic planning method presented here could be applicable to other species, ecosystems and socio-economic contexts. © 2024 The Authors.

Environmental monitoring investigations have been typically based on species level responses of biodiversity to environmental disturbances. Considering that this exercise is cost-intensive and the species identification keys are unavailable for some geographical areas, efforts are now afoot to test the efficacy of supra-specific taxa in resolving distribution patterns of biota, analogous to that of species. This study was aimed at testing the efficacy of Taxonomic Sufficiency (TS), a data reduction technique, in deciphering spatio-temporal variations of macrobenthos in the tropical coastal waters of northwest India. The macrobenthic indicator taxon, Polychaeta, was analyzed at five transects that included two marine protected areas, during the three major seasons. The consistency of spatio-temporal trends of polychaete assemblages, derived from four taxonomic levels and subjected to five types of data transformation was scrutinized. Univariate indices indicated that coarser taxonomic levels except order, maintained the indicative responses spatio-temporally, similar to the species level. Spatial variability was appropriately indicated by all data matrices. Temporal variation was evident only with family data subjected to fourth root or log data transformations. The TS approach succeeded in this tropical ecoregion owing to the consistent and sizable proportion of monotypic polychaete taxon and uniformity in responses of the constituents of higher polychaete taxon. CCA results revealed that a similar set of environmental variables influenced the polychaete distribution at all the taxonomic levels; however, spatial variations detected at species level diminished with reduced taxonomic breadth. Results indicated that meaningful robust data for deriving coastal management initiatives can be achieved cost-effectively by the adoption of TS approach for the ecologically and economically important 2360 km long northwest Indian coastline. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,474-483,,,247,,J.

Knowledge of macro and microhabitat use and home range size has considerable practical value for land managers. With this aim we first studied the home range and habitat preferences in western Hermann's tortoises by radio tracking 15 adults weekly from March 2008 to May 2009 in three localities within the Albera population range (NE Iberian Peninsula). We estimated home ranges with Fixed Kernel estimator (FK) and Minimum Convex Polygon (MCP) after checking tortoise site fidelity. We observed that home range size did not differ significantly between males and females (mean FK = 2.01 ha, mean MCP = 3.01 ha). Secondly, we studied macrohabitat selection using a vegetation map. Preferred habitats were open shrubland, open forest and barren land during the activity period, and dense forest, dense shrubland and open shrubland during the hibernation. Next, we assessed microhabitat selection along five periods of the annual cycle: hibernation, emergence from hibernation, spring, summer and autumn. We then located marked tortoises weekly and classified the plant species observed in each location. Principal component analyses showed that tortoises selected shrubs with trees during hibernation, bramble during summer and herbaceous habitat during the breeding season. All these results can provide guidelines for management programs that set aside areas of habitat critical to conserve viable populations, although it is also important to prevent mortality from forestry works. We therefore tested a new brush cutter head accessory to achieve tortoise-safe undergrowth clearing.

We observed no damage in plots that were cleared with the accessory but scars in most carapaces in the plots cleared without it (with potential mortality ranging from 40% in neonates to 100% in adults).

Spatial-temporal restrictions of fishing activities are important measures used for the management of marine stocks. However, sometimes these regulations are not fully implemented due to a lack of effectiveness and compliance, which contributes to their failure. Here, we developed a food-web model approach using the Ecopath with Ecosim (EwE) model representing the Fisheries Restricted Area (FRA) of the Gulf of Lion ecosystem (CoSEGoL model) prior to the establishment of the fisheries restrictions (2006–2008). We characterized the structure and functioning of the ecosystem before and after its establishment. The constructed food-web model was then fitted to the available time series of data from 2008 to 2016 to verify whether this FRA has contributed to the recovery of target demersal species and the demersal community. The fitted model was used to explore alternative future management scenarios to explore feasible management options in order to ensure a full ecosystem recovery under climate change conditions. Our results suggest a failure in the recovery of target species in the restricted area under the current management scenario, potentially revealing a lack of protection efficiency and/or enforcement. Scenarios of management options under plausible climate futures revealed possible recovery of targeted species, especially European hake. The study highlighted the importance of considering trophic interactions between predators and prey to identify trade-offs and synergies in fisheries management outcomes and the need to consider both fishing and climate dynamics. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,123,,Mar.

At the European level, the road to an ESDI follows the guidelines contained in the ISPIRE Directive of the EC. With the aim of implementing a framework for harmonisation of data and services in geo-information domain, the European Community has supported the development of HUMBOLDT project, under the INSPIRE Directive and in the context of GMES Initiative. The two-pronged approach to geo-data harmonisation of HUMBOLDT comprises a technical side of framework development and an application side of scenario testing and validation. This paper presents an overview of the harmonisation framework implemented by HUMBOLDT project complemented by two short application cases based on thematic Scenarios of the project, one on the topic of protected areas and the other on maritime use cases. Protected Areas Scenario aims to transform geo-information, managed by park authorities, into a seamless flow that combines multiple information sources from different governance levels (European, national, regional), and exploits this newly combined information for the purposes of planning, management and tourism promotion. Ocean Scenario, on the other side, is essentially constituted by a centrally running geoportal that allows users to view oil spill information in 3 regions over European Seas, making use of the HUMBOLDT Framework components and providing an overall portrayal interface.

The success of MPAs stems from the overall positive benefits attributed to the ""reserve effect,"" the totality of the consequences of protecting marine systems. The reserve effect includes but is beyond the goal of protecting particular species or areas with economical or cultural value. However, most data on the effects of MPAs focus on target species and there is limited evidence for the consequences of protection at larger levels of organization. Quantitative information on the reserve effect remains elusive partly because of its complex nature. Data on biodiversity can be used to quantify the reserve effect if not restricted to specific taxonomic groups. In our study, we quantified species diversity, trophic diversity, and an approach to functional diversity in five MPAs and adjacent non-protected areas along the Mediterranean coast of Spain. Our three measures of diversity were based on the abundance of algae, fish, sessile and mobile invertebrates in shallow water rocky communities and could be used to estimate the reserve effect based on species, trophic levels, or functional roles. We tested the hypothesis that species, trophic, and functional diversity were higher in protected areas than in adjacent non-protected areas. Species diversity varied with geographic area but not with protection status. However, we found higher functional diversity inside MPAs. Also, the effect of protection on functional diversity varied as a function of the geographic area. Our results support the uniqueness of MPAs at a species level and the universality of the reserve effect at the level of the trophic groups' composition. This type of comprehensive ecological approach may broaden our understanding of MPAs and their efficiency as management tools. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.",,109-116,,,73,,J.

However, insufficient consideration of social aspects can render such initiatives ineffective. By incorporating stakeholders' perceptions and values, and by involving stakeholders (transparently) in decision-making processes, conservation plans and efforts can better achieve desired goals and targets.; Results: In this paper, we present and analyze three case studies within different ecological and land use contexts. Each case study uses different participatory approaches to elicit stakeholders' perceptions and values, while seeking to involve stakeholders in the decision-making process. The case studies are the following: (1) participatory scenario planning for a protected area in Dońana coastal wetland in Southwestern Spain; (2) assessment of ecosystem services trade-offs and social responses on rewards for agro-biodiversity in the rubber agroforest landscape in Jambi, Indonesia; and (3) socio-cultural evaluation, through visual stimuli, of ecosystem services provided by transhumance cultural landscapes in Central Spain. We discuss how stakeholders perceive and value their environments and to what extent participatory approaches are useful for capturing information relating to land use and ecological processes.; Conclusions: Social-ecological systems are inherently complex, having a variety of interacting actors with different types of ecological knowledge, interests, and values. Different participatory tools or approaches are appropriate for various and specific contexts and objectives. Determining and integrating the various types of knowledge and values of different actors can contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of social-ecological systems. © 2014, Villamor et al.; licensee Springer.",,,,1,3,,Ecol.

This is especially the case in developing countries. In this study, we sought to integrate Local Fisher's Knowledge with distribution modelling to estimate the annual bycatch of Titicaca Grebe (Rollandia microptera), an endangered endemic bird from Lake Titicaca whose main anthropogenic threat is bycatch.LocationLake Titicaca, Peru and Bolivia.MethodsWe conducted transect and point counts of fishing nets in March-September 2022 and conducted interviews with fishers across the Lake Titicaca region. Using bathymetry, distance from shore, distance from a settlement, distance from the protected area, presence/absence of aquaculture, distance from aquaculture, and wetland cover, we constructed a distribution model of fisheries using maximum entropy modelling. We conducted interviews with fishers asking about the frequency of grebe bycatch and conducted short-term monitoring at various sites while conducting transect points for dead grebes.ResultsWe estimate 3270 km2 of the surface area of Lake Titicaca is used for fishing, which amounts to 39.40% of the lake's surface area. The area under the curve (AUC) of the distribution model was 0.89 and the True Skill Statistic was 0.67, which suggests maximum entropy modelling can model fisheries occurrence. The results of our interviews suggested a biologically implausible large number of grebes caught as bycatch annually. The cultural context of the interviews, including potential influences of non-response and social-desirability bias, being with fishers who often view the Titicaca Grebe as a nuisance species, might have caused over-reporting of bycatch and hence led to these implausible figures.Main ConclusionsIt is possible to map fisheries using distribution models as one might with species. However, obtaining accurate measures of fisheries bycatch through interviews is more difficult, due to cultural factors which affect the accuracy in fisher's responses. While we hope that this method provides a low-cost alternative to monitoring, it is not a suitable replacement for it.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:001298846500001,,,,,,,ACCURACY; artisanal fisheries; Bolivia; bycatch; CATCH; CONSERVATION; conservation social science; FRESH-WATER BIODIVERSITY; freshwater conservation; GILLNET FISHERIES; grebe; HABITAT; inland fisheries; KNOWLEDGE; LAKE TITICACA; Peru; PREDICTION; SEABIRD; small scale fisheries; waterbird mortality,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Unfortunately, it seems that such body of specialists rather than strengthening is decaying. The goals of this paper are to discuss the role played by the Mexican taxonomists in the knowledge of the flora of Mexico and its current human capital, and to analyze the updated floristic knowledge and its relevance for the biodiversity conservation strategies. Novel approaches would help to complement our taxonomic knowledge by defining additional areas of richness and endemism (hotspots) that supplement or make more efficient our national system of natural protected areas. The main results point out that the rate of description of new species suggests there is still a significant bias in knowing the total number of species in the Mexican flora, but each year an important number of them, either as new species or new records, are added. Much of the discovery of this missing diversity is achieved with specialized review of the scientific collections, although the number of taxonomists has dramatically decreased. Some emerging lines of research that help to define better strategies for searching and analyzing biodiversity are discussed; they will surely facilitate the work of exploration and investigation of this unknown component of plant diversity of the country. It is proposed that avoiding the actual crisis of taxonomy we will minimize the biodiversity crisis. Unfortunately the disappearance of taxonomist in the world (and Mexico is not an exception) is due mostly to the actual way to evaluating the academic productivity, to the difficulty of obtaining grant resources for taxonomic studies, as well as to the low impact factor of journals were their results are published.

Small-scale fisheries face great challenges since they are difficult to monitor, enforce, and manage, which may lead to overexploitation. Combining territorial use rights for fisheries (TURF) with no-take marine reserves to create TURF-reserves can improve the performance of small-scale fisheries by buffering fisheries from environmental variability and management errors, while ensuring that fishers reap the benefits of conservation investments. Since 2012, 18 old and new community-based Mexican TURFreserves gained legal recognition thanks to a regulation passed in 2012; their effectiveness has not been formally evaluated. We combine causal inference techniques and the Social- Ecological Systems framework to provide a holistic evaluation of community-based TURFreserves in three coastal communities in Mexico. We find that, overall, reserves have not yet achieved their stated goals of increasing the density of lobster and other benthic invertebrates, nor increasing lobster catches. A lack of clear ecological and socioeconomic effects likely results from a combination of factors. First, some of these reserves might be too young for the effects to show (reserves were 6-10 years old). Second, the reserves are not large enough to protect mobile species, like lobster. Third, variable and extreme oceanographic conditions have impacted harvested populations. Fourth, local fisheries are already well managed, and while reserves may protect populations within its boundaries, it is unlikely that reserves might have a detectable effect in catches. However, even small reserves are expected to provide benefits for sedentary invertebrates over longer time frames, with continued protection. These reserves may provide a foundation for establishing additional, larger marine reserves needed to effectively conserve mobile species. © 2019 Villaseńor-Derbez et al.",,,,8,14,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,article; child; Conservation of Natural Resources; ecosystem; Ecosystem; environmental protection; Fisheries; fishery; geography; Geography; human; lobster; Mexico; nonhuman; Socioeconomic Factors; socioeconomics,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In the rare cases when evaluations do take place, they typically focus on ecological indicators and ignore other relevant objectives such as socioeconomics and governance. And regardless of the objectives, the diversity of locations, monitoring protocols, and analysis approaches hinder the ability to compare results across case studies. Moreover, analysis and evaluation of reserves is generally conducted by outside researchers, not the reserve managers or users, plausibly thereby hindering effective local management and rapid response to change. We present a framework and tool, called “MAREA”, to overcome these challenges. Its purpose is to evaluate the extent to which any given reserve has achieved its stated objectives. MAREA provides specific guidance on data collection and formatting, and then conducts rigorous causal inference analysis based on data input by the user, providing real-time outputs about the effectiveness of the reserve. MAREA’s ease of use, standardization of state-of-the-art inference methods, and ability to analyze marine reserve effectiveness across ecological, socioeconomic, and governance objectives could dramatically further our understanding and support of effective marine reserve management. © 2018 Villaseńor-Derbez et al.

But the costs and benefits of community-based MPAs –an increasingly common tool in conservation and fisheries management– remain understudied. Here, we quantify the operational costs of maintaining community-based MPA monitoring programs in nine small-scale fishing communities in Mexico. We then compare these costs to the potential extractive use value of invertebrate and fish biomass contained in the reserves. We find that the annual monitoring costs (median: 1,130 MXN/ha; range: 23-3,561 MXN/ha) represent between 0.3% and 55% of the extractive use value of the biomass contained in the reserves (median: 21.31 thousand MXN/ha; 5.22 - 49/12 thousand MXN/ha). These results suggest that the direct monetary benefits of community-based marine conservation can outweigh the costs of monitoring programs, providing further support for these types of management schemes. While further research should explore other mechanisms that would allow fishers to leverage the non-extractive use value of reserves (e.g., tourism) or the non-use value (i.e. existence value of biodiversity) to sustainably finance their conservation efforts, a stop-gap measure to ensuring long-term monitoring costs are covered might include limited extractive use of resources contained in the reserves.

However, little is known about how marine reserves may alter the behavior of the populations that are the target of protection. In theory, marine reserves can relax selection on spatial behavioral phenotypes that were previously targeted by the fishery and also drive selection in favor of less mobile individuals. In this study, we used acoustic telemetry to monitor the individual spatial behavior of 566 Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua Linnaeus, 1758) moving within a marine reserve and a control site in southern Norway, starting 1 year before the implementation of the marine reserve and lasting up to 9 years after. Following a before-after-control-impact approach, we investigated changes in (1) survival, (2) selection acting on behavioral traits, and (3) mean behavioral phenotypes, after the implementation of the marine reserve. We focused on three behavioral traits commonly used to describe the mobility of aquatic animals: home range size, depth position, and diel vertical migration range. Survival increased after reserve implementation, but contrary to our expectations, it subsequently decreased to preprotection levels after just 3 years. Further, we found no significance in selection patterns acting on any of the three behavioral traits after reserve implementation. Although some changes related to water column use (the tendency to occupy deeper waters) were observed in the marine reserve after 9 years, they cannot unequivocally be attributed to protection. Our results show that survival and behavioral responses to marine reserves in some cases may be more complex than previously anticipated and highlight the need for appropriately scaled management experiments and more integrated approaches to understand the effects of marine protected areas on harvested aquatic species. © 2022 The Authors.

The present study aimed at assessing the connectivity levels of subpopulations of bicolor damselfish (Stegastes partitus) recruits at a small scale (~200 km) among four reefs in the Mexican Caribbean. Samples were collected from 13 sites nested in two Marine Parks (Cozumel and Xcalak), one Biosphere Reserve (Chinchorro Bank) and one unprotected area (Mahahual). A total of 713 samples were genetically characterized by means of seven microsatellite DNA markers and were analyzed on a hierarchical basis. A strong genetic structure was detected among sites with a weak but significant genetic structure among reefs, the combination of which has not been reported in previous studies. These results appear to be related to a ""sweepstake-chance effect"" combined with oceanographic factors. An isolation by distance test, in addition to a hierarchical Bayesian method, revealed that neither distance among sites and reefs nor any of 10 environmental factors tested could be used to explain the genetic differences observed. The results suggest that conservation strategies for S. partitus based on local scales are likely to be effective. © 2010 Springer-Verlag.",,1023-1033,,4,29,,Coral Reefs,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Bayesian analysis; Caribbean; Caribbean Coast [Mexico]; connectivity; Connectivity; conservation genetics; CORAL; coral reef; Cozumel; DISTANCE; ENVIRONMENTAL-FACTORS; FISH POPULATIONS; Genetic; genetic analysis; genetic marker; Habitat; isolated population; LARVAL DISPERSAL; LIFE-HISTORIES; MARINE POPULATIONS; Mexico [North America]; MICROSATELLITE NULL ALLELES; Microsatellites; perciform; population genetics; POPULATION-GENETICS; Quintana Roo; recruitment (population dynamics); RETENTION; Stegastes partitus; subpopulation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Many studies have demonstrated that D. pictus competes against native species with similar breeding strategies, pointing out abiotic conditions as the main driver tipping the balance in favor of one or another species. This study aims to assess the impact of the spread of D. pictus on native Iberian Discoglossus and other native species, analyzing the potential roles of long-distance dispersal and long-term climate warming in the Iberian Peninsula. The study area covers the western Mediterranean region, including all Discoglossus species in northwestern Africa, Sicily, the Iberian Peninsula, and southern France. Our results show a strong climatic niche overlap between D. pictus and targeted species in the Iberian Peninsula, including endemic Discoglossus species. Future projections of climatic change suggest that climatic suitability will increase for all species, both inside and outside the Natura 2000 network, with the only exception being a moderate and widespread decrease for Pelodytes punctatus. However, these positive trends are reversed within Natura 2000 sites where most species are explicitly targeted, jeopardizing the effectiveness of protected areas in a long-distance dispersal scenario. Discoglossus pictus is a North African amphibian that was introduced in southern France early the 20th century and has spread south and north along the Mediterranean coastal plains up to 170 km. In order to disentangle the conservation implications of the spread of D. pictus for sensitive native species, we examined the impact of long-term climate warming on the basis of niche overlap analysis, taking into account abiotic factors. The study area covered the distribution ranges of all genus Discoglossus species in northwestern Africa (659,784 km(2)), Sicily (27,711 km(2)), the Iberian Peninsula, and southern France (699,546 km(2)). Niche overlap was measured from species environmental spaces extracted via PCA, including climate and relief environmental variables. Current and future climatic suitability for each species was assessed in an ensemble-forecasting framework of species distribution models, built using contemporary species data and climate predictors and projected to 2070 ' s climatic conditions. Our results show a strong climatic niche overlap between D. pictus and native and endemic species in the Iberian Peninsula. In this context, all species will experience an increase in climatic suitability over the next decades, with the only exception being Pelodytes punctatus, which could be negatively affected by synergies between global warming and cohabitation with D. pictus.",,,,23,12,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000910780900001,,,,,,,ALIEN; Amphibia; CLIMATE-CHANGE; climatic change; COMMUNITY; conservation; DECLINES; Discoglossidae; DYNAMICS; ECOLOGY; IMPACT; invasive species; MODELS; niche overlap; POPULATION; SPECIES DISTRIBUTIONS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

When dealing with hydrobiological resources, they become the source supporting nearby areas where fisheries communities should use them in a sustainable way. Nevertheless, regional stress go beyond areas' boundaries which, added to the limited capabilities of institutional control, have forced to look for different strategies to face this conflict. In this context, the Colombian National Natural Park Authority (PNNC in Spanish) began the process looks for definition and implementation of actions for the recovery of aquatic resources, and initially outlined the characterization of some societal elements and the pressure on hydrobiological resources as fundamentals for the implementation of such a strategy in five protected areas in the Colombian Caribbean: Tayrona, Old Providence McBean Lagoon, Rosario and San Bernardo Corals, Floral and Faunal Sanctuary Los Flamencos, and Salamanca Island Way National Park. The methodology applied in order to implement this study was that proposed by Invemar's Fishing Information System (Sipein in Spanish). A total number of 1664 fishermen were censed; they have 7545 dependent persons, 29.3% of them youngsters. It was observed that 40% of the fishermen alternate fishing with other activities within the protected areas (tourist guides, boatman, scuba aid, and seller) and outside them (farmer, construction worker, minor merchant). 63 places of origin adjacent to protected areas and circumscribed to five Caribbean Colombian provinces were determined for fishermen working in the protected areas. 1146 fishery economic unities potentially use protected areas. The role assumed by PNNC and other regional agencies aimed to minimize pressure within those protected areas is discussed. The construction of joint strategies involving resource managers, researchers, academics, government, and NGOs in the national, regional, and local levels is highly recommended. Elements to be considered in strategies are: prevent and control, economic alternatives outside of protected areas, and monitoring to validate the management. For the future, sustainable fishing in the region will depend upon a network of Marine Protected Areas along with other management measures to reduce fishing mortality.",,277-306,,2,43,,Bol. Invest.

We combined regular censuses, photo-identification and satellite telemetry to investigate trends in grey seal abundance, site fidelity, individual movements and haulout site use. Individual movements and seasonal variations in abundance suggest that the seals used the Molčne archipelago alternatively with other haulout sites of the South-west British Isles during their annual cycle. Nine out of 16 seals fitted with Satellite Relay Data Loggers (SRDLs) moved to the Isles of Scilly, English Cornwall, Wales or the Channel islands. On average the seals spent 85% of their time Near Haulout, 56.8% of which in the Molčne archipelago. Overall the seals spent 66% of their tracking time within the boundaries of the Marine National Park. From 1997 to 2000 in the Molčne archipelago, we observed a peak in number during the moulting season (mean = 49.8 seals) and a lower abundance during the breeding season (mean = 38.3 seals). The sex ratio was strongly skewed towards males during the moult (between 3.1 and 5.3-1), and was close to 1:1 during the summer. Inter-annual site fidelity outside the breeding season was very high, varying from 70% to 95% of identified seals, suggesting that the observed movements constitute rotations rather than random dispersion. From 1991/1994 to 1997/2000, the mean number of seals counted at haulout sites increased by 7%, close to the rates of increase observed in the core population of the British Isles at the same period. The Marine National Park may be too restricted for the overall conservation of the population but management plans should be aimed at preserving the characteristics of the habitat for the grey seal. © 2005 Elsevier Ltd.

So it appears as different studies upon the Carpathian region (Popa, Kern, 2008, Stoica, 2008, Pu?ca?u, 2010, Naum, Butnaru, 1983, Chiri??, 2009). Those relations generated different types of environmental landscapes and dynamic changes in Carpathians area, different spatial sequences (Chirita, 2003). not only in the mountain area itself but also in depression and valleys surrounding. The highest volcanic massive of Romanian Carpathians, with the huge volcanic caldera spreads 6 km diameter, The Calimani Mountain has a peculiar stage of conservative natural landscape and also a specific human activity, concretised by dispersed villages of Dornas Depression to Old mining activity at over 1700m, above sea level. The article analyzes two sets of simultaneous environmental relationships between natural and human activity components: a constructive and destructive one, both in focusing on the succession of the former sulphur mine of Calimani area. Constructive relations involve the projects of ecologically reconstructions of mining former exploitation. Technical solutions are on the edge of the C?limani National Park space and Master Plan and, also on the edge of local people desire. Far from their own desires, the inhabits from villages of Dornas Depression, nearby the Calimani National Park are between too many strengths: ancient desire of being owner of their mountains with traditionally human activities, nowadays a restricted protected area and also, far from equilibrium between nature conservation declared regions and preserve area, because of stressed actions by economic activity as exertion of the incontrollable pasturage, woods exploitation, unorganized tourism or other polluting economic activities. The second level of analysis proposed in our article aims Dorna Depression. In the space area surrounding Calimani Mountain-Dornean, the dominant nature of relationships is a type of construction, but there are signs of development at least to Environmental disharmonic relationships (Chiri??, 2004, 2007, landscape-Stoica, 2008). Types of properties over forest, mainly, dornean geographical landscape characterized by humanized, protected areas and the mining ones, have became industrial Frische (Chirita, 2010, Pu?ca?u, 2010), as types of new relationship between communities and protected area. The relative fragility of the Dornas landscape is mainly determined by the complex physical-geographical connections between the surrounding mountainous area and the depression hearth, with rapid transfers between them at the soil level, the subterranean hydrographical network level as well as at the superficial one, and especially at the air level, by the atmospheric propagation of dust and noxa from the adjacent depression regions. © SGEM2011 All Rights Reserved by the International Multidisciplinary Scientific GeoConference SGEM.",,1057-1064,,,3,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: 11th Int.

Methods: Based on literature, we summarize the role of connectivity as one component of relevance in the broad structure of spatial prioritization in both marine and terrestrial realms. Results: Partially diffuse, directed connectivity can be approximated in Zonation-based multi-criteria SCP by applying hydrodynamic modelling, knowledge on species traits, and information on species occurrences and quality of habitats. Sources and destinations of larvae or propagules can be identified as separate spatial layers and taken into account in full-scale spatial prioritization involving data on biota, as well as economic factors, threats, and administrative constraints. While population connectivity is an important determinant of metapopulation persistence, the importance of marine connectivity depends on species traits and the marine environment studied. At one end of the continuum are species that occupy isolated habitats and have long pelagic larval durations in deeper sea areas with strong directional currents. At the other extreme are species with short pelagic durations that occupy fragmented habitats in shallow topographically complex sea areas with weak and variable currents. Conclusions: We conclude that the same objectives, methods, and analysis structures are applicable to both terrestrial and marine spatial prioritization. Marine spatial conservation planning, marine spatial planning, marine zoning, etc., can be implemented using methods originated in the terrestrial realm of planning. © 2020, The Author(s).",,1021-1034,,5,35,,Landsc.

Here we use a conservation planning algorithm to integrate 55 global data layers on ABNJ species diversity, habitat heterogeneity, benthic features, productivity, and fishing as a means for highlighting priority regions in ABNJ to be considered for spatial protection. We also include information on forecasted species distributions under climate change. We found that parameterizing the planning algorithm to protect at least 30% of these key ABNJ conservation features, while avoiding areas of high fishing effort, yielded a solution that highlights 52,545,634 km2 (23.7%) of ABNJ as high priority regions for protection. Instructing the planning model to avoid ABNJ areas with high fishing effort resulted in relatively minor shifts in the planning solution, when compared to a separate model that did not consider fishing effort. Integrating information on climate change had a similarly minor influence on the planning solution, suggesting that climate-informed ABNJ protected areas may be able to protect biodiversity now and in the future. This globally standardized, data-driven process for identifying priority ABNJ regions for protection serves as a valuable complement to other expert-driven processes underway to highlight ecologically or biologically significant ABNJ regions. Both the outputs and methods exhibited in this analysis can additively inform UN decision-making concerning establishment of ABNJ protected areas. © 2020 The Authors",,,,,122,,Mar.

To use and effective protection of shared water resources and ecosystems of Europe against pollution, climate change and marine litter requires coordinated action at EU level. In this respect the EU has established a Community framework for the protection and water management by developing water Directives. The base Directive is Water Directive Framework 2000/60/EC, which established a framework for managing surface water and groundwater in the catchment. This Directive was and is complemented by specific directives, international agreements and legislation related to quantity, quality and water pollution. Member States are obliged to adopt management plans and programs of measures appropriate for each body of water taking into account the result of analyses and studies. Management plans will be implemented in the period 2012-2015, which must then be reviewed every 6 years. These plans, drawn up at the pool / river basin aim: to prevent deterioration, improvement and restoration of surface water bodies; achieving good chemical and ecological properties no later than the end of 2015; reducing pollution discharges and emissions of hazardous substances; protection, improvement and restoration of groundwater, prevent pollution or deterioration and ensuring a balance between abstraction and recharge; conservation of protected areas. An important step to achieve management plans of water resources is forecast quality evolution in watercourses. To achieve this requires modeling the phenomena that occur in rivers (hydrodynamic modeling and propagation of various substances polluting water waves pollution in case of various accidents), which is achieved by advanced hydroinformatic modeling tools for satisfactory precision. The detailed results obtained from modeling and forecast increase general understanding of the evolution of water quality in river basins and support authorities to act (in time and space), in case of accidental pollution, according to the plans of action in emergency situations, based on plans risk management of pollution of watercourses.

The turtle is well adapted to agricultural areas, making them vulnerable to population decline as their nesting grounds are not in protected areas. This study aimed to examine the nesting ecology and estimated number of reproductive females. Nests of M. macrocephala were surveyed in a 16-hectare rice field at central Thailand. Turtle nests were searched for and monitored on two consecutive days per fortnight during December 2013 to May 2014. The nesting season of M. macrocephala in this area was from early December to early April. A total of 74 clutches of 3–9 eggs each were found in this area. Turtle nests were covered by ground vegetation and mainly found on the rice-field ridge with the distance less than 5 m from the water source. All the turtle eggs were collected for incubation at the laboratory until hatching. In addition, adult turtles were trapped by mesh traps placed in canals within the study area. Mitochondrial DNA samples of juvenile turtles and trapped adult females were analyzed for haplotype variation in the cytochrome b gene. From 71 clutches and six adult females found within this study period, seven haplotypes were found. This indicates that seven or more females reproduced. Given the assumption that a reproductive female lays only one clutch per night, eggs with the same haplotype in multiple new nests in one night were laid by different females. Based on this, our field records of newly formed nests revealed that at least 10 different females reproduced in this 16-hectare area. Our results show that combining field and molecular techniques allows for determining a minimum number of female turtles that reproduce in a particular area, which is useful for conservation planning in the future. © 2021 by Chulalongkorn University",,354-364,,3,21,,Chulalongkorn Univ.

The goal of this tiered study is to give an integrated view of three focus themes inside the area of Limpopo National Park, in Limpopo River Basin: groundwater, climate change, biodiversity. Limpopo National Park is one of the jewels in the crown of Mozambique’s protected areas: it is exceptionally rich in biodiversity and, as such, has a wide variety of genes, species and ecosystems. Groundwater, climate change, biodiversity make a linked system. The way to protect and keep biodiversity is to evaluate the implications between these themes, because climate change has a large impact on groundwater, which plays a crucial role in supplying water and biodiversity depends on groundwater quality and quantity. The management of biodiversity and ecosystems, highly dependent on water and how rainfall may evolve over the basin plays a crucial role on aquifer recharge. For a comprehensive groundwater recharge assessment, the first phase of the present study focused the impact of the climate change on groundwater recharge ranging from the regional scale of Mozambique to local scale of Limpopo Park area. Mozambique is situated on the East coast of Southern Africa between 10”27’S and 26”52’S latitude. The morphology of the country can be characterized by distinct units such as coastal lowlands, middle plateaus, uplands plateaus, mountainous area. The climate of Mozambique varies spatially from the North where is under the influence of the equatorial low pressure zone, to the South where it is influenced by the subtropical and anti-cyclonic zone. The prominent geological features are the Precambrian crystalline rocks of the Basement Complex, Karoo Sedimentary Rocks, Post Cambrian Volcanic and igneous Rocks and Meso- Kenozoic Sedimentary rocks. The main hydrogeological units correspond to geological units and are: aquifers related to the crystalline basement complex, aquifers occurring in Karoo formations and aquifers related to post Karoo formations [2]. The method employed was the reverse groundwater balance technique for the assessment of potential infiltration factor. As first step the study aims to evaluate the total rainfall received at Mozambique to understand rainfall variability in time by a statistical technique. Monthly precipitations historical series, referred to 23 years of measurements, were available. These records data were collected in meteorological network stations in Mozambique. Afterwards, we carried on the assessment of the effective infiltration action on the basis of an infiltration coefficient evaluated taking the conditions of rock outcropping from the Soil and Terrain database (SOTER) for Southern Africa [3] The intent of the study is to evaluate the groundwater active recharge and how it is sensitive to climate change. © SGEM2017 All Rights Reserved.",,411-420,,,17,,,,,,,,International Multidisciplinary Scientific Geoconference,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Issue: 31 Journal Abbreviation: Int.

A scientific study showed that human societies might have already exceeded some of the planetary limits by placing themselves in a danger zone. At a global level, there has been an awareness of the emergency linked to the speed of the rate of biodiversity loss (which has increased in recent years) also deriving from a legal approach to the protection of biodiversity which is mainly voluntary and not binding on the states. For the effective protection of biodiversity, a crucial point seems to be the search for new legal instruments to ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of protection. In December 2022, ‘The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework’ was adopted, which has the goal of protecting at least 30% of land and marine areas by 2030 and restoring degraded ecosystems. This agreement marks a crucial change for an effective protection of biodiversity on a global level, even if it seems to have introduced only procedural obligations (and therefore does not appear to be a binding global agreement). At a European level, until the Green Deal, the protection for biodiversity has been ensured through general rules of soft law, accompanied by a sectoral discipline of hard law through the Birds Directive and the Habitats Directive (as transposed in the domestic legislation). Starting from the Green Deal, awareness has been gained from the emergency linked to the loss of biodiversity (moreover synergistic with the mitigation of climate change) and of the necessity to change the protection paradigm moving from a soft law approach to general rules, binding for all Member States. An important milestone is the very recent ‘Nature Restoration Law’, which has been approved by the European Parliament on february 2024 and that provides binding obligations for all Member States, as well a support for the fight against the loss of biodiversity, not only from the protected areas but also from cities and other areas not protected. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024.",,21-35,,,,,,,,,,,Springer Nature,,English,,,Scopus,,,,"Journal Abbreviation: Biodivers.

The research was carried out in the south-central coast of Santa Catarina, where there are two processes of creation of Extractive Reserves partially superimposed on the territory of the Environmental Protection Area of the Baleia Franca: the Extractive Reserve of the Lighthouse of Santa Marta and the Extractive Reserve of Artisanal Fishing of Imbituba and Garopaba. Data were obtained through 60 interviews with artisanal fishermen from both contexts. The results reveal the existence of two social representations about extractive reserves. The content of these social representations reveals that even when the formal process is concluded with the local communities participation, there remain, among the fishermen, antagonistic and partial visions about the meaning and implications of the process of creation and implementation of this public policy. © 2018 Universidade Federal do Parana.

The “evolutionarily significant unit” has become an operational term for a group of organisms that should be the minimial unit for conservation management. No generally accepted definition for this term exists that would be the basis for the evaluation of these units in practical conservation situations. Currently, taxonomic decisions in species conservation are mostly based on the biological species concept. But the universal application of criteria of reproductive isolation or phenetic similarity to delimit conservation units is problematical. We favor a definition for evolutionarily significant units based on patterns of variation. In the theoretical framework of the phylogenetic species concept, conservation units are delimited by characters that diagnose clusters of individuals or populations to the exclusion of other such clusters. Characters are used for cladistic analysis to infer hypotheses of the phylogenetic relationships of individuals, and differentiated populations are diagnosed using population aggregation analysis. Characters can be based on genetic, morphological, ecological, or behavioral information, provided they are inferred to be heritable. The use of cladistics and population aggregation analysis has the potential to make the evaluation of evoluntionarily significant units objective and testable, an important consideration in politically controversial cases. Our cladistic approach is demonstrated by the evaluation of potential conservation units in the endangered tiger beetles Cicindela dorsalis and C. puritana. Copyright © 1994, Wiley Blackwell.

No existe una definición general aceptada para este término que pueda servir de base para la evaluación de estas unidades en situaciones prácticas de conservación. Corrientemente, las decisiones taxonómicas en la conservación de especies están basadas principalmente en el concepto biológico de especie. Sin embargo, la aplicación universal del criterio de aislamiento reproductivo o similitud fenética para delimitar las unidades de conservación es problemático. Nosotros favorecemos una definición para unidades evolutivamente significativas basada en patrones de variación. Dentro del marco teórico del concepto de especies filogenéticas, las unidades de conservación están delimitadas por caracteres que diagnostican grupos de individuos o poblaciones excluyendo otros grupos. Caracteres son usados en análisis cladísticos para inferir hipótesis acerca de las relaciones filogenéticas de los individuos y la diferenciación de poblaciones es diagnosticada utilizando análisis de agregación de poblaciones. Los caracteres pueden estar basados en información genética, morfológica, ecológica o de comportamiento siempre y cuando se haya inferido que son heredables. El uso del análisis cladístico y de agregación poblacional tiene el potencial para hacer que la evaluación de las unidades evolutivamente significativas sea objetiva y testeable, una consideración importante en casos políticamente controvertidos.

However, integrating genetic results into management and conservation objectives has been challenging, with few examples that show practical applicability. This review aims to address some of the perceived barriers to an enhanced approach that integrates molecular data into management and conservation goals, by reviewing papers relevant to both conservation and fisheries management in the Indo-Pacific region, particularly with respect to phylogeography, connectivity, and species identification, as well as stock delineation, restoration of depleted wild stocks, mislabeled marine resources and ""molecular forensics."" We also highlight case studies from each of these areas that illustrate how molecular analyses are relevant to conservation and management in the Indo- Pacific, spanning a variety of vertebrate and invertebrate species. We discuss the application of genetic data to the design and evaluation of the effectiveness of marine protected area networks, stock delineation, and restoration and the usage of exclusion tests and parentage analyses for fisheries management. We conclude that there is a distinct need for increasing public awareness and ownership of genetically unique lineages and, ultimately, the increased inclusion of genetic research into management policy and conservation. Finally, we make a case for the importance of clear and effective communication for promoting public awareness, public ownership, and for achieving conservation goals within the region.© 2014 Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science of the University of Miami.",,123-158,,1,90,,Bull.

However, enhancement actions are likely to affect other, non-targeted species. On a south-facing slope in the Swiss Jura mountains, a mixed-forest stand was thinned out by irregular removal cuttings to improve the habitat conditions for reptiles. We used this enhancement action as a case study to monitor changes in the macrofungal community that came along with it. During 3 years before and after forest thinning, the site was visited between six and twelve times per year. Thereby, all apparent fungal species were recorded along a ringlike transect, split into 32 transect sections. We used site-occupancy models to estimate fungal species richness and abundance. These models allow to separately estimate occurrence probability and detection probability of species, and to account for differences in detection probability, depending on habitat and season. After the forest thinning, the occurrence probabilities of ectomycorrhizal and saprobic fungi were significantly higher than before. As a result, we estimated a mean increase in overall species richness by 4.4% (median 4.3%, CI 2.1–6.8%) and an increase in abundance by 20.0% (median 19.9%, CI 14.8–25.7%). The two major habitat changes associated with forest thinning, the decrease in living wood and the increase in dead wood on most transect sections, could not explain the whole extent of the estimated increase in species richness and abundance. We believe that forest thinning may have fostered fungal species richness by creating a larger density and diversity of suitable microhabitats. With some caution, we conclude that the small-scale habitat enhancement for reptiles at the Bolberg, creating islands of open forest, did not negatively affect species richness and abundance of macrofungi, a non-targeted species group. © 2020, Springer Nature B.V.",,1805-1819,,6,29,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer,,,,Bayesian analysis; biodiversity; Biodiversity; dead wood; deciduous tree; Fagus; forest management; Forest management; Forest thinning; Fungi; Hierarchical Bayes; hierarchical system; Jura [Switzerland]; probability; protected area; reptile; Reptile conservation area; Reptilia; site selection; Site-occupancy; species richness; Switzerland; transect,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The study uses Geographic Information System (GIS) mapping and open-source marine planning data. The atlas accounts for wind speed thresholds, bathymetry, ocean conditions, restrictions (including shipping lanes and military zones that can impede wind projects), regulations (including distance requirements from energy infrastructure, safety hazards, and marine protected areas), and modern wind turbine information (including size, spacing, and energy output). The results indicate that 64% of total (61.5% of contiguous) U.S. coastal area is available for offshore wind development, translating to a maximum possible nameplate capacity of 26,800 GW (7,150 GW for the contiguous U.S.). This far exceeds the U.S. 30 GW by 2030 target and projected capacity needs to power all energy sectors in 2050. The regions with the largest available areas at 150 m hub height and a 7 m/s wind speed threshold include Alaska (?1,784,300 km2), Hawaii (?718,600 km2), and the Northern California Coast (?127,000 km2). The U.S. East and Gulf Coasts have ?363,200 km2 and ?137,800 km2 available, respectively.

Based on this idea, risk-based design methods have been developed over the past decades. On closer inspection, it appears that the concept of risk-based design is well developed but that in applications strong schematisations and simplifications are applied. The simplifications cast some doubt on the validity of the results that are obtained. This simply aims to make risk-based design applicable to large-scale flood defence systems. The focus lies on the development of a general framework, in which in principle all information available may be used to establish the appropriate protection level in a given situation. To come to a workable framework for risk-based decision-making, it should first be recognised that a variety of different decisions are made to come to the appropriate level of protection. The types of decisions range from decisions on the geometry of an individual flood defence structure to decisions on the acceptable flooding probability of an area, given economic and societal consequences of flooding. In this study, the decision process is split in three levels: • Level A: decision-making on the appropriate probability of flooding on the level of protected areas. On this decision level, the cost of protection on the level of the full system and the consequences of flooding in the protected area are considered; • Level B: decision-making on the failure probability per individual structure in the protection system for a given value of the probability of flooding. On this decision level the allocation of a given flooding probability to individual sections of the system is obtained by minimisation of the construction costs of the full system; • Level C: decision-making on the geometry of an individual flood defence structure for a given probability of failure. Considering the cost of elements of the cross section and a set of failure modes, the construction costs of an individual section of the protection system are minimised. The proposed three level structure may act in two different directions. In the process of establishing the appropriate protection level of a flood-prone area, levels C and B provide to information on the cost of protection for a range of protection levels. This flooding to come to an acceptable level of protection of the area. On the other hand, if the level of protection on level A is fixed (by law), the tools on level B and C can be used to design the protection system in such a way that it matches legal requirements against minimum costs. In this study, the method of reliability-based optimisation is proposed as a tool to find the optimal design of a flood protection system on levels B and C. Well-known realibility methods in combination with optimisation routines are used to find the minimum cost of protection for any protection level. Realibility-based design of a flood defence structure is not possible if the environmental conditions are not properly qualified. For coastal flood defences, the hydraulic design conditions dominate the reliability of a flood defence structure. It appears that existing methods to describe the joint of statistics of hydraulic conditions are not always consistent with the physical behaviour of water levels and wave conditions. An alternative method is proposed in this study. The method combines statistical models with parametric physical models, which provides more insight in the behaviour of extreme conditions than methods used to date. Several options for the quantification of the probability distribution of flooding consequences are explored and compared to each other. A method is proposed in which the environmental conditions, the effect of primary and secondary flood defences and the spatial distribution of the value of the area are all accounted for in establishing the estimates of the flooding consequences. Quantitative methods to define acceptable flooding probabilities on decision level A have been obtained from literature. Four methods are applied in this study: • Limiting the added probability of death; • Cost-benefit analysis; • Life quality analysis. Based on observed statistics on causes of death, an acceptable value for the flooding probability may be defined. This has been done on the basis of earlier studies. A cost-benefit model for flood protection is established on the basis of estimated consequences of flooding and cost of protection. In establishing the two main elements of the cost-benefit model, the proposed reliability-based design method for flood defences plays a dominant role. An exponential utility model is used to include risk aversion in the cost-benefit model of flood protection. The elements of the model are the same as for the cost-benefit model. Therefore, also this model depends on a proper quantification of the cost of protection and the consequences of flooding. The life quality index is a social indicator that combines the gross domestic product per capita and the life expectancy. The gross domestic product per capita is found from the elements of the cost-benefit model. The effects of flooding on the life expectancy at birth are quantified using an analogy to time-dependent reliability analysis. Application of the risk-based design method to the coastal flood protection system of the province Groningen shows that the method indeed enables the risk-based design of large-scale flood defenc systems. An analysis of the acceptable flooding probabilities shows that the models that include the cost of protection lead to optimal flooding probabilities that area no more than two orders of magnitude apart. A definition based on observed death statistics neglects the cost of protection and may lead to an acceptable flooding probability that is up to seven orders of magnitude lower. The methods for reliability-based design on decision levels B and C can in principle be applied in practice to perform cost-effective design under the constraint of a required probability of failure. Extension of the models on these two levels is possible in the definition of failure modes and the description of hydraulic conditions. Application of the models on decision level A requires more research on models for acceptable safety levels. In the current state of development, the results of the models on level A may be used as input in the debate on acceptable levels of protection against flooding.",,1-216,,3,2,,Commun. Hydraul.

Although proven to be effective at protecting biodiversity and to be supported by local and wider communities, the implementation of some MPAs has been very contentious especially with fishing stakeholders. We researched the causes of these issues by examining the experience of implementation of the Batemans Marine Park in New South Wales, Australia. While MPA selection and management need to be based on rigorous science, a commensurate level of attention needs to be applied to understanding the social systems that also play a role in determining the protection measures and approaches. The most pressing issue that needs to be resolved early on in a planning process is the MPA's objectives, and whether these objectives are well understood and accepted by the local community. Building community support for MPAs also involves taking into account the different systems of knowledge and views of the natural world that exist within the community. Science alone is not sufficient to convince communities of the need for MPAs or their value in achieving conservation outcomes. Incorporating 'bottom-up' approaches into communication and engagement strategies will allow for a greater diversity of voices to be heard and acknowledged, protecting the planning processes against polarisation. Engaging local communities needs to go beyond large-scale consultation processes to include more rigorous, integrated social, economic and ecological assessment exercises, involving a collaborative participatory approach. Context is important and planning processes need to recognise the individual and unique needs of each affected community. Rigid ideas around the best means of achieving biodiversity protection combined with 'a one size fits all' approach to planning and community engagement are likely to exacerbate conflict and division and stimulate opposition. © 2018 Royal Zoological Society of New South Wales.",,173-180,,2,39,,Aust.

Despite this, there is limited research into the factors that drive this resistance. The Port Stephens-Great Lakes Marine Park (PSGLMP) and Batemans Marine Park (BMP), both situated in New South Wales (NSW) Australia, were established in December 2005 and April 2006 respectively. Both generated significant controversy and hostility, particularly from the recreational fishing sector. The controversy surrounding the declaration of these and other NSW marine parks continues and has been the subject of intense political interest and government enquiry. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with recreational, professional and indigenous fishers. They explored the social impacts of the declaration of PSGLMP and BMP and their link to marine park opposition. Opponents felt the marine parks had resulted in a variety of negative impacts ranging from a loss of enjoyment and convenience through to more serious impacts on wellbeing, livelihood and culture. Examination of the reasons why interview subjects participated in fishing provided further insight into their perception of the marine park and the impacts resulting from the declaration. Opposition to MPAs, however, cannot be explained by impact alone. All the marine park opponents interviewed represented themselves as 'knowledge holders' about their local marine area. This knowledge - predominately 'fish' knowledge - appears to have conflicted with a policy position which places biodiversity conservation as the primary objective of MPAs. This has led to a perception that the practical knowledge of users was not valued in the planning of each marine park. Incorporation of the goals and objectives of local communities into the development of MPA proposals may provide communities with a greater sense of ownership. Considering motivation to fish may allow for the development of more holistic management responses to mitigate and compensate users for social impacts that may arise from any necessary trade-offs between these often competing objectives. © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,441-462,,4,24,,Aquatic Conserv.

Ineffective social assessment can alienate local communities and undermine the success of existing and future MPAs. It is rare to critique the success of methods used currently to incorporate social and economic considerations into MPA planning. Three Australian MPA planning processes covering three states and incorporating federal and state jurisdictions are reviewed in order to determine how potential social impacts were assessed and considered. These case studies indicate that Social Impact Assessment (SIA) is under-developed in Australian MPA planning. Assessments rely heavily on public participation and economic modelling as surrogates for dedicated SIA and are followed commonly by attitudinal surveys to gauge public opinion on the MPA after its establishment. The emergence of issues around public perception of the value of MPAs indicates the failure of some of these proposals to adequately consider social factors in planning and management. This perception may have potential implications for the long term success of individual MPAs. It may also compromise Australia's ability to meet international commitments for MPA targets to gazette at least 10% of all its marine habitats as MPAs. Indeed, this is demonstrated in two of the three case studies where social and economic arguments against MPAs have been used to delay or block the future expansion of the MPA network. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.",,432-439,,2,36,,Mar.

It is therefore important to learn from the current experiences from the areas where people are dealing with this issue. We have made a comparison between the Thanet Coast project in England and the Wieden-Weerribben in the Netherlands. Both projects were started because the responsible authorities wanted to give clearness about the consequences of the designation as Natura 2000 site for social and economical activities in and around the site.

The study shows that a planning process in which much emphasis is put on cooperation seems to offer better possibilities than a more formal and hierarchical planning process.

To protect natural values against human impacts, marine protected areas (MPAs) are being implemented. In practice, however, these do not necessarily provide full protection against bottom-impacting fisheries. Sometimes only certain types of fishing are prohibited, or only during certain periods of the year. In the Netherlands currently 20% of the North Sea is declared MPA. Most areas include ambiguously defined conservation goals for the seafloor, such as protection against ‘note-worthy’ impact. The government, fishermen and NGOs state that respectively 4%, 20% and less than 1% of the Dutch North Sea floor is currently protected against bottom-impacting fisheries. These diverging perspectives hamper successful communication, and result in different views on whether the Netherlands meets (inter)national targets. This paper reveals the fact-base and rationale behind these different perspectives, and illustrates these in more detail for three areas in the Dutch North Sea. We suggest five steps to help avoid miscommunication, operationally define Dutch MPAs and ensure their effectiveness; (1) explicitly specify protection goals beforehand, (2) substantiate why and how the protection goals under (1) will be reached with the proposed measures, (3) define measurable targets, (4) ensure enforcement and (5) monitor closely and adapt when needed. The explicit fact-base presented in this paper aims to contribute to a constructive discussion about protection goals and necessary measures, and prevents Babylonian confusion. Recent new developments concerning the ‘North Sea Agreement’, as well as the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, have the potential to solve several of the abovementioned challenges. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,140,,Mar.

This is the case in the vicinity of Emas National Park, a small protected area in the Brazilian Cerrado. Over the last 40 years the native vegetation surrounding the park has been converted to agriculture, but the region still supports virtually all of the animals native to the area. We determined the effectiveness of scat-detection dogs in detecting presence of five species of mammals threatened with extinction by habitat loss: maned wolf (Chrysocyon brachyurus), puma (Puma concolor), jaguar (Panthera onca), giant anteater (Myrmecophaga tridactyla), and giant armadillo (Priodontes maximus). The probability of scat detection varied among the five species and among survey quadrats of different size, but was consistent across team, season, and year. The probability of occurrence, determined from the presence of scat, in a randomly selected site within the study area ranged from 0.14 for jaguars, which occur primarily in the forested areas of the park, to 0.91 for maned wolves, the most widely distributed species in our study area. Most occurrences of giant armadillos in the park were in open grasslands, but in the agricultural matrix they tended to occur in riparian woodlands. At least one target species occurred in every survey quadrat, and giant armadillos, jaguars, and maned wolves were more likely to be present in quadrats located inside than outside the park. The effort required for detection of scats was highest for the two felids. We were able to detect the presence for each of five wide-ranging species inside and outside the park and to assign occurrence probabilities to specific survey sites. Thus, scat dogs provide an effective survey tool for rare species even when accurate detection likelihoods are required. We believe the way we used scat-detection dogs to determine the presence of species can be applied to the detection of other mammalian species in other ecosystems. © 2010 Society for Conservation Biology.",,154-162,,1,25,,Conserv.

Marine resources underpin subsistence and commercial fisheries, as well as tourism activities, contributing substantially to Palau's GDP and employment. Since 1992, Palau has been actively developing conservation initiatives to protect marine resources, promote ecotourism, and ensure revenue generation. Marine reserves represent a particularly important tool in the country's sustainable development strategy. In 2015, Palau designated 80% of its marine EEZ as a National Marine Sanctuary, with the remaining 20% slated for domestic fisheries. That same year, Palau received 160 thousand tourists, over 9 times the country's population. In early 2017, the President proposed a bill effectively limiting budget travel and actively promoting high-end tourism. This study uses a quantitative social-ecological model to explore policy scenarios involving tourism, marine conservation and local food security. While climate change had the largest expected impact on local ecosystems, reef fish consumption contributes considerably to future projected declines in marine resources. Therefore, for Palau to achieve its goals of boosting revenues while sustainably stewarding marine resources, it will be necessary to transfer some level of consumption from reef fish on to tuna and other pelagics. Such changes, which align with the current proposal of developing an offshore national fishery as part of the Sanctuary's management plan, may allow Palau to meet future seafood demand, while protecting reef systems and the industries that rely on them. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,323-332,,,88,,Mar.

During the decade following the FDNPP accident, almost all major problems caused by tsunami damage to fishery-related facilities and radioactive contamination of marine products have been settled, although elevated radiocesium (134Cs and 137Cs) concentrations over the Japanese regulatory limit of 100 Bq/kg-wet are still observed occasionally in fish collected at the FDNPP port. Monitoring results obtained from intensive inspections by Fukushima Prefecture have played important roles in careful decision-making related to expansion of coastal fisheries operations on a trial basis, so-called “trial fishing, "" for which several limitations (e.g., operation areas, operation times, and target species) were imposed. Safety of marine products has been ensured through the voluntary screening system, in addition to the establishment of a no-take zone near the FDNPP by the Fukushima Prefectural Federation of Fisheries Cooperative Association. Under the new operation scheme started from April 2021, several limitations set under the trial fishing regime will be lifted gradually. Remaining issues related to full-scale fishing will be resolved based on the roadmaps produced by fisheries cooperatives. Reconstruction of human resources and the infrastructure necessary for shipping in association with countermeasures against harmful rumors will be necessary to increase landings by both coastal and offshore fisheries: Those landing amounts in 2020 were, respectively, 17.7% and 55.7% of those recorded in 2010. In inland water environments, radiocesium concentrations of freshwater fish have decreased gradually overall. Limitations constraining fishing activities including recreational fishing have been lifted in western and southeastern parts of Fukushima Prefecture. In contrast, fishing activities have remained limited or suspended in the middle to eastern part of Fukushima Prefecture where persistent radiocesium contamination of freshwater fish has been observed. High levels of radiocesium contamination in freshwater fish because of the continuous radiocesium uptake through the food web have been found in the designated evacuation zone, which monitoring inspections by Fukushima Prefecture have not yet targeted. Production amounts and prices of cultured fish, which are almost free from radiocesium contamination, have not yet recovered. Long-term studies promoting the precise prediction of radiocesium contamination of freshwater fish in natural habitats and countermeasures against reputational damage of cultured fish are necessary to help restore Fukushima’s inland water fisheries in the future. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2022.",,313-351,,,,,,,,,,,Springer Nature,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Behavior of Radionuclides in the Environment III: Fukushima DOI: 10.1007/978-981-16-6799-2_14,,,,Fukushima; Marine and freshwater fish; Nuclear power plant accident; Radiocesium contamination; Restoration of fisheries; Tsunami damage,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Identifying whether this preference of L. javanicus to these habitats is common throughout Nepal is essential to understanding the conservation needs of the species. This study aimed to explore the seasonal distribution and habitat utilisation by L. javanicus in and around the Barandabhar Corridor Forest by using 220 randomly selected squares within a 500 × 500 m2 grid. We visited centroids of each selected square to collect data on L. javanicus distribution, habitat types, and probable causes of disturbance in two seasons (rainy: August – September 2019 and winter: December – January 2019–2020). A total of 64 observations of L. javanicus (n = 29 in winter, n = 35 in rainy) were made. Leptoptilos javanicus were seen in more squares outside the Protected Area (65.2%) during the rainy season. Variables that negatively influenced L. javanicus sightings were distance to the road (few individuals seen close to the road), distance to the village (few individuals seen close to settlement), and areas under human disturbance (only few individuals seen in areas with more livestock and people) during both seasons. The farmlands around the Barandabhar Corridor Forest hosted many individuals of L. javanicus and are a new location in lowland Nepal with a resident population of this species. Past assumptions regarding L. javanicus conservation require revision, and including a focus on farmlands is an important requirement in Nepal’s conservation planning. © 2022, Fund for Support and Development of Protected Areas """"Bear Land"""".

A method for estimating carbon offset from conservation activities has been developed. This study aims to evaluate the carbon-offset potential of the seagrass ecosystem by applying this method to five provinces in Indonesia. North Maluku has the widest seagrass area, but only 5% of this is the conserved area. Meanwhile, Jakarta has the highest percentage of its conserved seagrass within the area. Emission reduction at the year 2020 ranged 0.03–1.02 tC/year (with leakage) or 0.05–2.04 tC/year (without leakage). The percentage of emission reduction among the five provinces ranged from 0.75% to 11.3%. About 9.03 tC/year emission from seagrass ecosystems in Jakarta will decrease by up to 8.01 tC/year.

Indonesia has ratified the Paris Agreement and declared the emission reduction for climate action (Sustainable Development Goal 13) up to 29% (independently) or 41% (with international support) in 2030 relative to the business as usual (BAU) scenario. The effort to achieve this target is implemented on Low Carbon Development Initiative (LCDI) starting in 2020. LCDI adopts marine and fisheries as one of the implementing sectors that focus on blue carbon. To implement the activities as part of the carbon emission reduction within the LCDI, we have to establish a calculation method that should be measurable, reportable, and verifiable (MRV). The present article introduces the MRV method for calculating the carbon emission reduction for the Conservation/Protection Seagrass Ecosystem's climate change mitigation activity on Marine Protected Area (MPA). We present how to calculate the baseline emission (business as usual), emission leakage when implementing the activity, and emission reduction. A case study on seagrass meadows of Kepulauan Seribu MPA is presented for the trial of the introduced method and formula. Using the proposed method is reliable enough to estimate carbon emission reduction from seagrass conservation activity within the MPA. We can calculate the carbon emission will reduce 4.35 tC relative to the BAU on Kepulauan Seribu MPA by 2030. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,789,,,,,,,,IOP Publishing Ltd,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

Surveys were conducted in Liquica and Atauro using a questionnaire and combined with focus group discussions. The survey was conducted on fishermen, community leaders, travel service providers and local government. Survey results show that the socioeconomic conditions of the Liquica and Atauro communities still need to be improved, as the income level of the community is almost equal to the level of its family's expenditure. In addition, the people of Liquica and Atauro are still very dependent on the condition of the coastal and marine areas, so it needs to be strengthened with the development of alternative livelihoods that can supplement family income.

Field monitoring for one year was also carried out and any dead elephant was identified and details recorded to determine causes of mortality and distribution. Data were entered in an Excel spreadsheet and then converted into dBASE IV format and imported to ArcGIS to create a point shape file of elephant mortality and associated attribute data. Graphs and map were generated linking mortality with other aspects. Data obtained using qualitative research method was analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). Frequencies obtained were calculated, and where appropriate, a chi-square test was used. A 0.05 level of significance was used to determine existing relationships between data categories. Results showed that most elephant mortality occurred outside the protected area (MMNR) and were due to trophy poaching (61.5%, n=13) which occurred during long rainy seasons and in dense bush lands. There was a significant difference in mortality cases during the short rain season (?2=4.500, df=1, p=0.034). Kernel density analysis depicted Olesentu and Sitoka in TM as hotspot area for elephant mortality due to trophy poaching. Elephant mortality due to conflicts occurred mostly on agricultural land with 10 (50%) cases. From the results, it was evident that elephant the distribution and pattern of elephant mortality is determined by several factors among them, Rainfall, vegetation cover, proximity to water source, roads and human settlement.

For tropical small-scale fisheries, spatial scales of socially appropriate management are generally small— the median no-take locally managed marine area (LMMA) area throughout the Pacific is less than 1km2. This is of particular concern for large coral reef fishes, such as many species of grouper, which migrate to aggregations to spawn. Current data suggest that the catchment areas (i.e. total area from which individuals are drawn) of such aggregations are at spatial scales that preclude effective community-basedmanagement with no-take LMMAs.We used acoustic telemetry and tag-returns to examine reproductive migrations and catchment areas of the grouper Epinephelus fuscoguttatus at a spawning aggregation in Papua New Guinea. Protection of the resultant catchment area of approximately 16km2 using a no-take LMMA is socially untenable here and throughout much of the Pacific region. However, we found that spawning migrations were skewed towards shorter distances. Consequently, expanding the current 0.2km2 no-take LMMA to 1–2km2 would protect approximately 30–50% of the spawning population throughout the nonspawning season. Contrasting with current knowledge, our results demonstrate that species with moderate reproductive migrations can be managed at scales congruous with spatially restricted management tools. © 2016 The Authors.",,,,3,3,,R.

An 11 month time series of acoustic data from fixed recorders deployed at a known E. morio aggregation site showed that E. morio produce sounds throughout the day and during all months of the year. Increased calling (number of files containing E. morio sound) was correlated to sunrise and sunset, and peaked in late summer (July and August) and early winter (November and December). Due to the ubiquitous production of sound, large-scale spatial mapping across the WFS of E. morio sound production was feasible using recordings from shorter duration-fixed location recorders and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). Epinephelus morio were primarily recorded in waters 15-93m deep, with increased sound production detected in hard bottom areas and within the Steamboat Lumps Marine Protected Area (Steamboat Lumps). AUV tracks through Steamboat Lumps, an offshore marine reserve where E. morio hole excavations have been previously mapped, showed that hydrophone-integrated AUVs could accurately map the location of soniferous fish over spatial scales of <1km.

In this study we investigated resource selection by elephants inhabiting the Greater Mara Ecosystem in Southwestern Kenya in relation to three distinct but spatially contiguous management zones: (i) the government protected Maasai Mara National Reserve (ii) community-owned wildlife conservancies, and (iii) elephant range outside any formal wildlife protected area. We combined GPS tracking data from 49 elephants with spatial covariate information to compare elephant selection across these management zones using a hierarchical Bayesian framework, providing insight regarding how human activities structure elephant spatial behavior. We also contrasted differences in selection by zone across several data strata: sex, season and time-of-day. Our results showed that the strongest selection by elephants was for closed-canopy forest and the strongest avoidance was for open-cover, but that selection behavior varied significantly by management zone and selection for cover was accentuated in human-dominated areas. When contrasting selection parameters according to strata, variability in selection parameter values reduced along a protection gradient whereby elephants tended to behave more similarly (limited plasticity) in the human dominated, unprotected zone and more variably (greater plasticity) in the protected reserve. However, avoidance of slope was consistent across all zones. Differences in selection behavior was greatest between sexes, followed by time-of-day, then management zone and finally season (where seasonal selection showed the least differentiation of the contrasts assessed). By contrasting selection coefficients across strata, our analysis quantifies behavioural switching related to human presence and impact displayed by a cognitively advanced megaherbivore. Our study broadens the knowledge base about the movement ecology of African elephants and builds our capacity for both management and conservation. © 2024, The Author(s).",,,,1,12,,Mov.

This study investigates the effects of protection over 19 years on substrate composition and fish communities in four marine sanctuaries and corresponding non-sanctuary areas in the Philippines and examines the importance of community support, management measures and enforcement of regulations on these ecological effects. Between 1981 and 2000, substrate cover variables were measured using line transects with scuba and snorkel surveys, and fish censuses (identification to family level) were conducted using scuba within a 500 m2 area. Semi-structured interviews collected data on community support for the sanctuaries, and observations and interviews established management and enforcement aspects of the sanctuaries. Over time, all sanctuaries showed improvements, or maintenance of, ecological variables compared with pre-enforcement times, with maintenance of hard coral cover and average increases of 8.3% in fish species richness and 54.9% in fish abundance. In comparison, non-sanctuary areas showed maintenance of the status quo or declines in ecological variables. However hard coral cover, fish abundances and fish species richness showed significant declines as well as increases in sanctuary areas. Community, management and enforcement factors were significantly related to positive ecological trends in sanctuary areas; management and enforcement were related to a wider variety of ecological factors than community score. Community support was significantly related to an increase in hard coral cover in deep areas. Enforcement of regulations was significantly related to an increase in abundance of fishery target fish species in sanctuary areas, and simple management measures were significantly related to an increase in abundance of large predators. Supportive communities that voluntarily implemented sanctuary regulations, improved enforcement, and small discrete cohesive communities may have facilitated the process of building this community support. Well-enforced sanctuaries that showed an increase in abundance of target species may have contributed to the maintenance of fish yields in adjacent non-sanctuary areas. The effects of sanctuary implementation varied on a case-by-case basis, influenced by environmental, biological, physical and human factors. However, a combination of community support, management measures and enforcement of regulations contributed towards positive ecological trends in sanctuary areas.",,388-407,,4,30,,Environ.

The recent development of baited remote underwater video systems (BRUVs) provide an alternative quantitative sampling method. Despite being used in warmer temperate and tropical waters and cool-Temperate waters in Victoria, initial trials of vertical BRUVs in Tasmania, Australia, provided poor results. Our study explored possible reasons for this, including using horizontal BRUVs and various baits across a depth gradient. We examined the fish fauna in, and adjacent to, a small, but long-established, no-Take marine reserve to assess the potential for BRUVs to enhance monitoring programs in exposed coastal environments. Significant differences in the fish assemblage were described relating to location, depth and bait type, with pilchards being an effective bait type. Fish abundance and species richness increased with depth. The research validated BRUVs for monitoring deep-reef systems in Tasmania, reinforced the importance of depth in structuring fish assemblages and identified the range of observable species in this region that may not be fully captured with diver-based surveys alone. Power analyses were conducted using the data generated here to inform the amount of replication needed to detect biologically meaningful differences in targeted fish assemblages in subsequent studies examining the response of no-Take marine reserves to protection. This facilitates future assessments of the effectiveness of Tasmanian no-Take reserves and allows for more broad-scale studies that can address a range of ecological and conservation questions. © CSIRO 2017.",,568-580,,3,68,,Mar.

The challenge of allocating limited funds is acute for Pacific salmon Oncorhynchus spp. in Canada, which lack a strategic approach to ensure that resources are spent on actions most likely to cost-effectively recover diminished populations. We applied the Priority Threat Management framework to prioritize strategies most likely to maximize the number of thriving Pacific salmon populations on the Central Coast of British Columbia, Canada. These included 79 genetically, ecologically and spatially distinct population groups called conservation units (CUs) for five salmon species. This region has high salmon biodiversity and spans the territories of four First Nations: the Heiltsuk, Nuxalk, Kitasoo/Xai'xais and Wuikinuxv. Using structured expert elicitation of Indigenous and other experts, we quantified the estimated benefits, costs and feasibility of implementing 10 strategies. Under a business-as-usual scenario (i.e. no additional investments in salmon conservation or management), experts predicted that only one in four CUs would have >50% chance of achieving a thriving status within 20 years. Limiting future industrial development in salmon habitats, which was predicted to safeguard CUs from future declines, was identified as the most cost-effective strategy. Investment in three strategies: (a) removal of artificial barriers to fish migration, (b) watershed protection and (c) stream restoration—at 11.3M CAD per year—was predicted to result in nearly half (34 of 79) of the CUs having a >60% chance of meeting the conservation objective. If all conservation strategies were implemented, experts estimated a >50% probability of achieving a thriving status for 78 of 79 CUs, at an annual cost of 17.3M CAD. However, even with the implementation of all strategies, most sockeye salmon CUs were unlikely to achieve higher probability targets of reaching the objective. Policy implications. We illustrate how Priority Threat Management can incorporate the perspectives and expertise of Indigenous peoples and other experts to prioritize conservation strategies based on their cost, benefit and feasibility. Implementation of this framework can help safeguard and recover Pacific salmon in Canada, and could also be used to prioritize actions for other conservation issues globally. © 2020 The Authors.

Location: North Atlantic coastlines. Methods: We develop a novel application of species distribution models for intertidal taxa by using both oceanographic and terrestrial environmental variables recently made available at biologically relevant pixel resolutions. We use these model-based distribution estimates to test alternative hypotheses of late Pleistocene history across six amphi-Atlantic taxa whose hypothesized Pleistocene distributions are constructed from previous population genetic inferences. Results: Species distribution models correctly estimate all six current amphi-Atlantic distributions on both sides of the Atlantic. Models hindcasted to the Last Glacial Maximum estimate trans-Atlantic distributional persistence in three of six taxa, and conversely indicate no suitable habitat on the North American coastline in the other three taxa. These results are consistent with the histories inferred from population genetic data for five of six of the taxa, the exception being Nucella lapillus, whose hindcasted trans-Atlantic persistence at the Last Glacial Maximum contrasts with the mitochondrial DNA-based estimates of post-glacial expansion from Europe to North America. Main conclusions: Marine and terrestrial distribution models are broadly concordant with known contemporary distributions and fail to reject five of six historical distributional hypotheses based on population genetic inferences. This demonstrated utility suggests that this technique could be expanded to examine how Pleistocene and contemporary climate change might play a role in intertidal species distributions across the entire community. Future application and development of these marine and terrestrial distribution models will strengthen inferences regarding the processes generating intertidal community assembly and population divergence, and may assist in conservation planning and the design of marine reserves. © 2012 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,249-260,,2,40,,J.

Limitation based on annual stock assessments and total allowable catches calculated from these assessments can be very dangerous, and marine protected areas (MPAs) are one means by which to limit exploitation rate directly even when total stock size is highly uncertain. This application of MPAs would probably require much larger areas than are now envisioned for limited objectives related to protection of seed spawning stock and local biodiversity. It might in fact cause a basic shift in thinking - from regarding MPAs as exceptional areas to regarding fishing areas as the exception (as is now the practice in, e.g., salmon and herring fisheries). The present paper describes the use of ECOSPACE, a new modeling tool based on ecosystem simulations, for preliminary determination of how large MPAs need to be; ECOSPACE models suggest that dispersal, trophic responses (prey depletion, increased dispersal of predators in response to competition), and spatial fishing-effort responses (concentration of fishing near MPA boundaries) are all likely to reduce the effectiveness of small MPAs. The models suggest we should see not simple high-low density differences across MPA boundaries but rather spatial gradients from low density in exploited areas to high density near the centers of larger MPAs. Such spatial density gradients should be accompanied by spatially organized 'trophic cascade' patterns if trophic interactions are important determinants of abundance. MPA design can work with or against spatial variation in fishing effort caused by economic cost and risk factors; ECOSPACE can help to demonstrate ecological consequences of alternative design strategies, but the most important uncertainties are about socioeconomic responses (cooperation or competition) rather than ecological ones. Design of experimental policies and monitoring programs for evaluation of MPAs should proceed from careful modeling to define likely spatial, temporal, and trophic scales for both ecological and fishing responses.",,745-757,,,66,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 3 Journal Abbreviation: Bull.

Ecospace is a spatially explicit model for policy evaluation that allows for considering the impact of MPAs in an ecosystem (that is, trophic) context, and that relies on the Ecopath mass-balance approach for most of its parameterization. Additional inputs are movement rates used to compute exchanges between grid cells, estimates of the importance of trophic interactions (top-down vs bottom up control), and habitat preferences for each of the functional groups included in the model. An application example, including the effect of an MPA, and validation against trawl survey data is presented in the form of a color map illustrating Ecospace predictions of biomass patterns on the shelf of Brunei Darussalam, Southeast Asia. A key general prediction of Ecospace is spatial 'cascade' effects, wherein prey densities are low where predators are abundant, for example, in protected areas or areas where fishing costs are high. Ecospace also shows that the potential benefits of local protection can be easily negated by high movement rates, and especially by concentration of fishing effort at the edge of the MPAs, where cascade effects generate prey gradients that attract predators out of the protected areas. Despite various limitations (for example, no explicit consideration of seasonal changes or directed migration), the outward simplicity of Ecospace and the information-rich graphs it generates, coupled with the increasingly global availability of the required Ecopath files, will likely ensure a wide use for this approach, both for generating hypotheses about ecosystem function and evaluating policy choices.",,539-554,,6,2,,Ecosystems,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Cascades; Dispersal; Fisheries management; Habitat preference; Policy evaluation; Spatial dynamics; Trophic models,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, herbaceous open vegetation types are abundant in this country and can be found in savannas on the coast, in the centre and in the south, and on inselbergs. The species diversity patterns of these habitats remain largely unexplored yet are targeted for both conservation and development. Here, we evaluate the floristic diversity of savannas in Gabon, their affinities with the inselberg open vegetation, and their contribution to the national park system in Gabon, which is currently undergoing a gap analysis. We then use a case study from the Batéké Plateaux to demonstrate species rarity in a single savanna. Materials and methods Species presence in the grassy formations of the savannas in Loango, Lopé, Pongara, and Plateaux Batéké national parks and in Kum inselberg is compared using ordination and clustering based on a similarity matrix (Sřrensen index). For the Batéké Plateaux savannas, the species rarity and distributions are assessed using Star ratings. Key results The species in the open herbaceous vegetation in Gabon account for at least 11% of the total flora of the country (508 species out of 4,710). Except for the coastal savannas, all sites are highly dissimilar in floristic composition (Sřrensen index 0.065-0.26) and no dominant savanna type occurs within the dataset. The inselberg site is the most dissimilar and constitutes a separate vegetation unit. Most savanna species of the Batéké Plateaux area are widely distributed, but not weedy. A few are extremely rare and are linked with moist habitats, substrate, and fire occurrence. Our results show the diversity and the conservation value of open, herbaceous habitats. Currently, the Gabonese National Park network is partly protecting the savanna and inselberg vegetation. However, several areas remain un-assessed and merit further exploration. © 2012 National Botanic Garden of Belgium and Royal Botanical Society of Belgium.",,46-54,,1,145,,Plant Ecol.

The consequence is a habitat seascape complex, comprising a mosaic of natural and engineered coastal features. This study used the freely available mapping tool (Google Earth) to define the extent of coastal engineering structures in the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area (GBR; Australia), a marine ecosystem of global biodiversity and cultural significance. Continuing threats to the heritage estate concomitant with expanding urban and industrial developments has raised concerns directed at the future conservation and resilience of the reef ecosystems, along with maintaining expected human lifestyles and livelihoods it provides. The data here shows that break walls and pontoons/jetties dominate development, contributing to approximately 10% (equivalent) of the coastline linear length. Most (60%) development occurs along the coastline or within the first few kilometres upstream along estuaries. While conservation and protection of natural coastal habitats is still preferred for the objective of fisheries production and biodiversity, managers must consider seascape implication/benefits more broadly when approving new marine infrastructure rather than a case-by-case approach which further contributes to an ad hoc mosaic seascape of natural and engineered habitats. Not only within the GBR heritage estate, but more broadly, coastal managers need to regard wider seascape connectivity processes during the assessment of any new development. There is an urgent need for policy and planning instrument reform that is inclusive of accumulative impacts of urban and industrial development in this heritage estate. Opportunities to include eco-friendly (green engineering) solutions, in the repair and revitalisation of existing artificial structures, is necessary in any new proposed urban and industrial development and expansion. © 2015.",,78-84,,,57,,Mar.

We selected 9 factors and used the maximum entropy model (MaxEnt) to simulate potential distribution of the Tibetan antelope in Tl period (from 2001 to 2018), T2 period (from 2021 to 2040), T3 period (from 2041 to 2060), T4 period (from 2061 to 2080), and T5 period (from 2081 to 2100). We predicted the effects of climate changes on the Tibetan antelope distribution and habitat quality which were analyzed under SSP126, SSP585 extreme concentration scenarios and SSP245 intermediate concentration scenarios. Results showed that; (1) core habitats of the Tibetan antelope mainly located in Hoh-xil, Change Tang, Altun Mountain National Nature Reserve, and Sanjiangyuan National Park; (2) The seasonal variations in temperature (Bio4) and elevation were the most critical environmental factors to affect distribution of the Tibetan antelope; (3) With increasing of greenhouse gas emissions intensity, core habitats of Tibetan antelope expanded to areas with higher elevation and latitude; (4) Nearly 43.18% of Tibetan antelope's core habitats were location outside of protected areas without effective conservation. In total, research on the geographical distribution of Tibetan antelope in response and adaptation to climate change has realistic significance for long term monitoring, population protection, effective management and reconstruction of suitable habitats for wildlife. © 2022 Science Press.

Most such species have planktonic larvae and depend on dispersal networks for inter-generational persistence. Yet, connectivity amongst patches of VME has seldom been considered when spatial management measures are introduced. Here, the relative importance of individual patches for the maintenance of their connectivity networks is evaluated, and a prioritization scheme for management action is proposed. Effective conservation measures should maintain approximately natural network configurations whenever possible. Location: Grand Bank and Flemish Cap, Northwest Atlantic Ocean. Methods: 3-D Lagrangian particle tracking was used to model larval dispersal connections between known patches of each of seven groups of benthic invertebrate taxa, previously recognized as indicators of VME. Connectivity networks were constructed and the effects of habitat loss simulated by systematic removal of whole patches, to determine the importance of each patch to connectivity within its respective network. Results: The various patches differed widely in their contributions to network connectivity. Each taxon group had both some patches that, if removed from the network, would result in a major decline in connectedness but also several which could be lost with negligible consequences for the remainder. Main Conclusions: While protecting each patch of VME has conservation value, the wide variation in connectedness shows that some patches are much more critical than others to the long-term persistence of the taxa, providing a foundation for prioritization of conservation actions. © 2024 His Majesty the King in Right of Canada, Crown Copyright and The Authors.

Method: The nearest neighbor index analysis and kernel density analysis were used to evaluate the spatial distribution of the PAs. By calculating the proportion of overlap in each protected area mosaic, the overlap status of PAs in Liaoning Province was analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. We also proposed a new method to calculate the overlap rate of multiple layers. Result: (1) The nearest neighbor ratio of PAs in Liaoning Province was 0.904, indicating the aggregation distribution pattern of PAs in Liaoning Province. (2) The PA in Liaoning Province mainly formed four aggregation regions: deciduous broadleaved forest in western Liaoning Province and northern Hebei Province, mixed coniferous and broadleaved forest in Longgang Mountains, grassland and cultivated vegetation in Liaohe Plain, northern part of wetland and deciduous broadleaved forest in Liaodong Peninsula. (3) The PAs with overlap accounted for 50.43% (by amount) and 8.63% (by area) of the total PAs in Liaoning Province. The overlaps mainly occurred between nature reserves and natural parks, with a total area of 134, 421 ha occurred in 107 PAs. (4) There were 82, 13, and one overlapped patche (s) with two, three and four overlapped layers, respectively in Liaoning Province. (5) Based on the concept of PAM, a total of 36 PAMs were recognized in Liaoning Province, of which eight had an overlap rate more than 50%, maximum of 81.34%; 6 less than 10%, minimum of 1.82%. Conclusion: The high overlap rate of PAMs indicated over evaluation of the area and conservation service function of the PAs. In this case, we suggested that the PA overlaps should be merged, and appropriate reduction of the total area should be permitted during the integration and optimization of the PA system in Liaoning Province. Furthermore, given the low protection effectiveness of some regions worthy of conservation, e. g., the coastal areas at the southern part of the deciduous broadleaved forest and wetland in Liaodong Peninsula, we suggested new PAs be established or expansion of the existing PAs to ensure the protection intensity and effectiveness of the PA system of Liaoning Province of northeastern China. © 2021, Editorial Department of Journal of Beijing Forestry University.

Seagrass ecosystems are one of the most productive aquatic ecosystems in the world and a globally significant carbon store due to the unique features of seagrass which allow efficient photosynthesis underwater. Seagrass ecosystems provide a range of important ecological service functions and they act as biological sentinels used to assess the health of coastal ecosystems. Recently, rapidly decreases in the number of individual seagrass species and the number of seagrass meadows caused by the multiple stressors including natural factors and human effects had led to a situation where 14% of all seagrass species are at risk of extinction and about one-third seagrass meadows have disappeared worldwide. In response to this decline, there has been a significant increase in the number of marine protected areas during the last decade, including seagrass monitoring and restoration projects which aim to prevent the extinction of individual seagrass species and prevent the large scale loss of seagrass meadows throughout the world. Current restoration projects involve habitat improvement through reduction in eutrophication or alteration of hydrology and the use of artificial transplantations which can be an effective method of restoration. Seagrass monitoring and restoration projects have achieved some positive preliminary results and provide useful guidelines for seagrass restoration. However there are challenges including limited theoretical approaches, appropriate technology, and uncertainty of outcome from seagrass transplantation and restoration projects and cost. This paper reviews the research on seagrasses and seagrass ecosystems globally, clarifies their importance to the biosphere and the risks to their survival to raise the awareness of the public, government and international agencies of the need to protect seagrass ecosystems.

Since 2001, mangrove forest area has increased by 1.8% per year due to strict protection of the remaining mangrove forests and large-scale restoration. By 2019, 67% of the mangrove forests in China had been enclosed within protected areas (PAs). In terms of the proportion of PAs of mangrove forests, China has achieved the conservation target of ""Nature Needs Half"". The ongoing degradation of mangrove forests was assessed at the species, population, community and ecosystem levels. The results show that despite the strict protection, the remaining mangrove forests are suffering extensive degradation due to widespread anthropogenic disturbance. Of the 26 mangrove species, 50% are threatened with extinction, a proportion higher than the average for all higher plants in China (10.8%). Local extinction of some common species like Bruguiera gymnorhiza is widespread. About 53% of the existing mangrove areas were dominated by low-intertidal pioneer species. Consequently, the carbon stock in vegetation has decreased by 53.1%, from 21.8 Tg C in the 1950s to 10.2 Tg C in 2019. Meanwhile, there is an estimated 10.8% concomitant decrease in the carbon sequestration rate. The root cause for this degradation in China is seawall construction because most mangroves are outside seawalls in China. Without fundamental changes in protection and restoration strategies, mangrove forests in China will continue to degrade in spite of strict protection and large-scale restoration. Future mangrove conservation effort should aim to preserve the diversity of both the biota and the ecological processes sustaining the mangrove ecosystem.

The effective conservation and management of PAs is a fundamental component of biodiversity conservation strategy and a key task in achieving the ‘3030’ target outlined in the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. This study systematically reviews the development of China´s PA system centered on national parks over the past decade since the reform of the national park system was launched, dividing the process into three time periods: pilot exploration in national parks (2013-2016), clarification of development direction (2017-2020), and accelerated construction (after 2021). China´s efforts to build its PA system have led to a series of innovative measures and experiences, including: achieving policy mainstreaming through comprehensive spatial planning, exploring diverse funding channels with increasing central and local financial input, and addressing overlapping and fragmented management issues through the integration and optimization of PAs. These efforts aim to achieve multiple benefits, such as biodiversity conservation, enhanced ecosystem services, climate change mitigation, and sustainable development. The study also analyzes progress and gaps in relation to the ‘3030’ target, focusing on four key aspects: area proportion, representativeness, effectiveness, and sustainability. Lastly, it offers the following recommendations for China and other countries to promote implementation and progress towards the ‘3030’ target: (1) systematic conservation efforts across PAs, ecological protection red lines, and other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs), with particular focus on marine protection; (2) enhancing representation and connectivity of PAs for important species and habitats; (3) improving technical assessment systems for conservation effectiveness across all PA levels and types, and establishing regular assessment mechanisms; (4) strengthening research on sustainability indicators to account for the multiple benefits of PAs in addressing various social challenges; and (5) exploring diversified funding mechanisms, conducting pilot practices and cost-benefit analysis. © 2024 Editorial Board, Research of Environmental Sciences.

Protected areas stand out as a crucial mechanism for biodiversity conservation and climate change response. The judicious application of NbS within protected areas, adhering to NbS standards and methodologies, holds the potential to yield synergistic benefits across biodiversity conservation, climate change mitigation and adaptation, and the advancement of sustainable development goals. China presently finds itself at a pivotal juncture in constructing its protected area system, with national parks taking center stage. Over recent years, the establishment, management, and associated research of national parks have gained considerable traction within China?s endeavor to foster ecological civilization and enhance its natural beauty. Hence, we initially delineate the applicability of NbS to the theory and practice of national parks, leveraging the eight criteria outlined in the global NbS standard by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Subsequently, we scrutinize the advancements in both theory and practice concerning national parks in China, juxtaposing the eight NbS criteria with the practical imperatives in the establishment and management of China?s national parks across four key dimensions: (1) the scientific construction of national parks (criteria 1, addressing social challenges; criteria 2, scaling considerations); (2) effective governance and management of national parks (criteria 5, fostering inclusive, transparent, and empowering governance processes; criteria 7, evidence?based adaptive management); (3) evaluating the efficacy of national park construction and management (criteria 3, enhancing biodiversity conservation and ecosystem integrity; criteria 6, achieving equitable trade?offs between primary objectives and secondary benefits); and (4) enhancing the sustainability of national parks (criteria 4, ensuring economic viability; criteria 8, mainstreaming within appropriate jurisdictions and enhancing sustainability). Finally, we propose relevant implications and prospects for the establishment, management, and associated research of national parks in China, with the aim to serve national parks as exemplars for addressing the significant crises of climate change and biodiversity loss, safeguarding and perpetuating the harmonious coexistence between humans and nature. Unlocking greater natural potential and harnessing increased natural power should constitute the fundamental concept in the domains of national park construction, management, and associated research. It is our aspiration that this paper serves as a guiding resource for the development of the national parks discipline in China and fosters the seamless integration of NbS into national park construction and management endeavors. © 2024 Science Press.

In practice, MCP is frequently hindered by information gaps in biodiversity distributions, particularly on a marine ecoregion scale. Species distribution modelling (SDM) can help to resolve this gap and provide information essential for MCP scenarios. We constructed habitat configurations for three coastal marine megafauna animals using SDM, then based MCP scenarios on the projected habitat configurations and tested the use of marine megafauna animals as surrogates to protect major ecosystems. Location: Gulf of Thailand, Southeast Asia. Methods: A MaxEnt model was used to project likely habitats for Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins (Sousa chinensis), Irrawaddy dolphins (Orcaella brevirostris) and sea turtles in the Gulf of Thailand. MARXAN software was used to prioritize spatial configurations for habitat protection. The percentage of overlaps between MARXAN delineations and major biodiversity features in the Gulf of Thailand were calculated. Results: Habitat configurations of humpback dolphins, Irrawaddy dolphins and sea turtles were projected throughout the coastal and estuarine waters along the Gulf of Thailand. MCP based on the habitat of three marine megafauna animals highlighted five critical habitats for the protection of major ecosystems in the Gulf of Thailand. Main conclusions: Holistic MCP starts with mapping critical habitats for marine protected area (MPA) networks, balances MPA networks with maritime livelihood activities and alleviates conflicts between MPA management and local livelihood needs. A combination of SDM and MARXAN methods provides a cost-effective approach to delineate MPA networks. In this approach, surrogate selection and data preparation should consider niches representative of regional ecosystem features and avoid spatial sampling bias. In coastal and estuarine waters, marine megafauna such as coastal cetaceans and sea turtles may serve as efficient surrogates to protect major ecosystems. © 2020 The Authors.

To effectively manage the conflicts and prevent future incidents, thorough understandings of its patterns and causes, the locals’ attitudes toward the conflicts and factors that may affect people’s behaviors are needed. Large carnivores can be perceived as problematic as they may cause severe human-wildlife conflicts through livestock depredation and even direct human injury or death. Livestock depredation is one of the main causes of human?carnivore conflicts. If managed inefficiently, it will lead to retaliatory killings toward the “problematic” large carnivores, thus imposing a threat to the species’ survival. Elimination of these apex predators will subsequently lead to the losses of critical functions they play in the ecosystem. Taihang Mountains is the core distribution area of the North Chinese leopard (Panthera pardus japonensis), the leopard subspecies endemic to China. Cattle depredation by leopards frequently occurs in this area and is therefore a challenge facing North Chinese leopard conservation. Methods: Our study area is in Heshun County, Shanxi Province, locating in the middle part of the Taihang Mountains. Since 2015, Shanxi Tieqiaoshan Provincial Nature Reserve, Heshun Ecological Conservation Association, Government of Mafang Town and Chinese Felid Conservation Alliance jointly launched a compensation project for cattle depredation by leopards in Heshun. Information for each cattle depredation event was recorded during this project from 2015 to 2019. A camera-trap network was also set up in the same area (from 2016 to 2019) to examine the spatial distribution of the relative abundance of cattle, North Chinese leopard and leopard’s primary wild prey, i.e. Siberian roe deer (Capreolus pygargus) and wild boar (Sus scrofa). In 2020, we interviewed 107 households who received money from compensation about their attitudes toward leopards, cattle depredation and the compensation project. With these data, we examined the spatiotemporal patterns of cattle depredation events and conducted a spatial risk model to evaluate what factors that may increase the probability of depredation incidents. We then mapped the risk of cattle depredation by leopards to the entire study area. We also investigated the relationship between herd management and the number of cattle injured/dead per household. As for the economic and social aspects, we calculated the economic impacts of cattle depredation on Heshun’s livestock husbandry industry and on individual households, and examined people’s attitudes toward leopards and their perceptions towards the risk of cattle depredation. At last, we provided specific suggestions for the mitigations of human-wildlife conflicts in Heshun. Results: We identified 195 cattle depredation events from 2015 to 2019 and compensated 116 households with a total of 270.5 thousand Yuan RMB. We found that the frequency of depredation was higher during the summer, during which the cattle were ranged freely in the mountain. The risk of cattle depredation decreased with the increase in the relative abundance of Siberian roe deer and increased with distance to villages, significantly (P < 0.05). The relative abundance of cattle was the third most important factor in predicting the risk. The boundary of protected area and the relative abundance of leopards are the two least important factors, both of which were not present in the 15 models with ?AIC ? 2. Besides, the practice of herd management may also have an impact on this risk, as herders with loose management tend to lose more cattle from depredation (P = 0.056). We found that the impact of cattle depredation on Heshun’s animal husbandry industry was minor as a whole. However, individual households who have experienced cattle depredation might bear a remarkable economic loss. This had led to individuals’ negative attitudes towards leopards, as well as complaints about insufficient compensation. Recommendations: In order to mitigate the impacts of livestock depredation by leopards as well as reduce future incidents, we proposed the following recommendations. Firstly, strengthening cattle management by, for example, constraining the free-ranging cattle within a certain distance away from villages and enclosing cattle in captivity at night during the free-ranging season to reduce the risk of depredation by leopards. Secondly, designating non-grazing zones where livestock grazing is strictly prohibited, thus reducing the risk of livestock depredation and allowing the recovery of the leopard’s wild prey population. Thirdly, continuing the cattle depredation compensation project to mitigate the economic burden incurred. In addition, carrying out regular visits to the local communities to alleviate the emotional impacts suffered by the locals, and conducting natural education to promote positive attitudes towards leopards and other wildlife. Finally, conducting wildlife population monitoring, especially for leopard’s natural prey, and implementing conservation measures when necessary to maintain their population stability. We believe these management strategies may effectively reduce the risk of livestock depredation and help promoting the coexistence between human and wildlife in the long term. © 2022, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The black-necked crane (Grus nigricollis) is a vulnerable species and the only species that lives in the plateau. Five migration routes of different populations have been identified, but for cranes wintering in Nyingchi Prefecture, Tibet, the migration route and breeding/summering area are still unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the spatio-temporal migration patterns of black-necked cranes in this area and to identify important areas for conservation. Methods. In 2016, we fitted seven black-necked cranes in Nyingchi with GPS-GSM satellite transmitters to record their migration routes. We used ArcGIS 10.2 to visualize important stopover sites and the 'ggplot' function in R to analyze the migration patterns. Results. From March 2016 to May 2019, we recorded nine spring migration and four autumn migration tracks from five individuals. Four individuals spent the breeding/summering season in Qinghai Lake, while the other spent the breeding/summering season in the Jinzihai Wetland of Dulan County, Qinghai Province. Detailed spatio-temporal information showed that the spring migration lasted 8.7 ± 4.6 days and covered 1,182.5 ± 90.4 km, while the autumn migration lasted 30 ± 10.6 days and covered 1,455.7 ± 138 km. Basom Lake and the Shazhuyu River were the most important stopover sites during the spring and autumn migrations, respectively. The cranes spent 4.4 ± 3.7 days in Basom Lake and 26.3 ± 10.7 days in the Shazhuyu River. The black-necked cranes mainly migrated during the daytime (>85 % of the fly points), and 81 % (17/21) of all stopover and roosting sites were in the valley or at lakeside swamps. Only 17.7% (516 / 2,914) of the data points for stopover and roosting sites were in protected areas. Main conclusions. Our study revealed the breeding/summering areas and migration routes of the black-necked cranes wintering in Nyingchi. These results contribute to a better understanding of the annual spatio-temporal migration patterns and the development of conservation plans for this vulnerable species. © 2020 Wang et al.",,,,,8,,PeerJ,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: PeerJ Inc.,,,,adult; article; autumn; Black-necked crane; breeding; clinical article; female; Grus; human; human experiment; male; Migration route; nonhuman; Qinghai-Tibet Plateau; river; Satellite tracking; spring; swamp; Tibet,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Although marine protected areas (MPAs) are considered an effective conservation tool, it remains unclear whether existing MPAs adequately protect marine biodiversity. To investigate this issue, we first constructed a maximum entropy model to predict the distributions of 359 threatened species and identified its species richness hotspots in the East China Sea. Then we identified priority conservation areas (PCAs1) under different protection scenarios. Since the actual conservation in the East China Sea is far from the goals proposed by Convention on Biological Diversity, we calculated a more realistic conservation goal by quantifying the relationship between the percentage of protected areas in the East China Sea and the average proportion of habitats covered for all species. Finally, we mapped conservation gaps by comparing the PCAs under the proposed goal and existing MPAs. Our results showed that these threatened species were very heterogeneously distributed, and their abundance was highest at low latitudes and in nearshore areas. The identified PCAs were distributed mainly in nearshore areas, especially in the Yangtze River estuary and along the Taiwan Strait. Based on the current distribution of threatened species, we suggest a minimum conservation goal of 20.4% of the total area of the East China Sea. Only 8.8% of the recommended PCAs are currently within the existing MPAs. We recommend expanding the MPAs in six areas to achieve the minimum conservation target. Our findings provide a solid scientific reference and a reasonable short-term target for China to realize the vision of protecting 30% of its oceans by 2030. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,336,,J. Environ.

Theoretical Framework: Grounded in theories of urbanization, land use change, and ecosystem dynamics, this research adopts a theoretical framework that integrates concepts from geography, ecology, and urban studies. It explores the complex interactions between urban development and mangrove ecosystems, considering factors such as population growth, economic development, and policy interventions. Method: The systematic literature review method used in this study follows the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. From 359 papers, 14 were selected for review and summary based on sources and identification, inclusion and exclusion criteria, screening, and data extraction. Results and Discussion: We realize that development activities that land use, such as land reclamation and port construction, pose the most significant threat to mangroves, often leading to irreversible damage. In addition to the obvious destruction, the covert and sustained impacts of urban development on mangrove forests have been receiving increasing attention. To address the negative impact of substantial demand for construction land, the establishment of protected areas at different levels has been proven to be indeed effective. However, the sustainable development of management and service functions within protected areas requires further research. Research Implications: Understanding the specific impacts of the urbanization process on mangrove forests is crucial for mangrove restoration efforts and for formulating and adjusting urban development-related plans and policies. Originality/Value: This study assesses urbanization impacts on mangroves, detailing loss reasons and distinguishing explicit and implicit effects of construction. It evaluates protective measures and discusses tailored conservation strategies for sustainable mangrove management. © 2024 ANPAD - Associacao Nacional de Pos-Graduacao e Pesquisa em Administracao.

MPA designation, however, continues to be used for perceived conservation and socioeconomic benefits for adjacent communities. Local beliefs regarding ecological and socio-economic outcomes often influence the public support for MPAs and ultimately their effectiveness. This paper focuses on understanding local residents’ beliefs regarding a potential South Coast National Marine Conservation Area (NMCA) in Newfoundland and Labrador and how those beliefs influence resident support for the NMCA. Data were collected from 180 Burgeo residents through a household survey. While 33% supported the designation of a South Coast NMCA, 43% opposed it and 26% were unsure. A principal component analysis (PCA) extracted five belief constructs. A regression model was used to examine relationships between these constructs and support for a South Coast NMCA. The results indicate that perceived economic development and marine conservation were the best predictors of support for NMCA establishment. Qualitative data analysis supported these findings and was used to better understand these relationships, with a minority of respondents seeing economic opportunities and protection and conservation as causes for support of the proposal. Qualitative responses also revealed strong concerns about the loss of traditional and current means of livelihood. If a South Coast NMCA is to be considered feasible it will require greater support and a shift in resident beliefs. This will require effective stakeholder engagement and increased educational and information campaigns. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,06-Dec,,,162,,Ocean Coast.

A number of terrestrial and aquatic species are indirectly affected by anthropogenic impacts, simply because they tend to be associated with species that are targeted for removals. Using newly developed statistical models that allow for the inclusion of time-varying spatial effects, we examine how the cooccurrence of a targeted and nontargeted species can be modeled as a function of environmental covariates (temperature, depth) and interannual variability. The nontarget species in our case study (eulachon) is listed under the U.S. Endangered Species Act, and is encountered by fisheries off the U.S. West Coast that target pink shrimp. Results from our spatiotemporal model indicated that eulachon bycatch risk decreases with depth and has a convex relationship with sea surface temperature. Additionally, we found that over the 2007- 2012 period, there was support for an increase in eulachon density from both a fishery data set ( 40%) and a fishery-independent data set ( 55%). Eulachon bycatch has increased in recent years, but the agreement between these two data sets implies that increases in bycatch are not due to an increase in incidental targeting of eulachon by fishing vessels, but because of an increasing population size of eulachon. Based on our results, the application of spatiotemporal models to species that are of conservation concern appears promising in identifying the spatial distribution of environmental and anthropogenic risks to the population. © 2015 by the Ecological Society of America.",,2198-2209,,8,25,,Ecol.

Identifying highrisk areas is particularly important when designing reserves or protected areas. Our novel approach incorporates data on distribution, movement, and diet of a generalist marine predator (harbor seals) to identify and map ""hot spots"" of predation risk for an endangered prey species (rockfish). Areas with high concentrations of seals (including some current marine reserves) are also estimated hot spots for rockfish predation. Although marine reserve planning currently targets areas with good habitat and low human disturbance, our modeling suggests that future terrestrial and marine reserve design may be made more effective by incorporating other components of the food web that either directly or indirectly interact with target species. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.",,37-47,,1,5,,Conserv.

Some coastal states have opted to implement ‘Shark Sanctuaries’, which prohibit commercial shark fishing and the export of shark products across large areas, typically their entire Exclusive Economic Zones. Although shark sanctuaries cover almost as much area globally as marine protected areas (MPAs), their success has yet to be evaluated. Here, key features and regulatory details for eleven shark sanctuaries (covering 3% of global ocean area) are summarized, highlighting their commonalities and differences. Catch data are then used to shed light on the impact current shark sanctuaries could have on shark catch, foreign fleets, trade and abundance. Based on this comparative analysis, recommendations are made to implement program evaluation measures within existing and future shark sanctuaries that would explicitly outline goals and measures of success or failure. In summary, although shark sanctuaries may have the intended effect of reducing shark mortality, there appears a need to address bycatch within shark sanctuary regulations, and to collect baseline data that can be used to monitor sanctuary effectiveness. © 2017 The Authors",,87-97,,,82,,Mar.

Despite operational challenges, this approach is considered key to optimising conservation outcomes whilst making efficient use of limited resources. Drawing on lessons learnt from the UK's MPA Programme we discuss the practical issues which arise from: i) effective selection of conservation features identified as surrogates for biodiversity, ii) adequacy of feature representation across the MPA network and iii) implementation of quantifiable conservation objectives and ability to monitor progress in relation to them [4,5]. There is recognition that high-level feature surrogates adopted for MPA designation may not adequately represent the full range of biodiversity present across UK marine habitats, and several of these features are indiscernible using acoustic mapping techniques. This results in our inability to accurately map their distribution and extent. Additionally, monitoring progress in relation to conservation targets is hampered by a lack of reliable indicators to assess change in their ecological status. Recommendations for the optimisation of MPA designation and monitoring using a systematic, evidence based approach are provided. These include: 1) flexibility in feature classifications to allow additional features to be designated as required, 2) communication of limitations in the evidence base to enable informed use in adaptive management decisions, 3) use of innovative technologies to more accurately map habitat features and 4) development of wider UK and regional sea scale monitoring programmes which align with an ecosystem based approach to the ongoing assessment of marine biodiversity. © 2019",,,,,111,,Mar.

The Site of Special Scientific Interest designation, which underpins terrestrial nature conservation in the UK, is only relevant at sea for intertidal sites and a few subtidal extensions. Legislation for Marine Nature Reserves, based on that for terrestrial National Nature Reserves, was unworkable because of government reluctance to designate sites in the face of stakeholder opposition. Regulations for the protection of European Marine Sites were made to implement the European Habitats Directive which covers very few marine habitats or species. The lacuna in legal protection was filled by the creation of the Marine Conservation Zone designation but the emphasis on features of particular value detracts from the objective of wider ecosystem protection. Protection for all types of marine protected areas is constrained by the need to consider the socio-economic consequences of regulation.

The targets set by Natural England for ""characteristic biotopes"" were that ""composite species, abundance and diversity should not deviate significantly from an established baseline, subject to natural change"". The three specified biotopes could not be distinguished, and instead three assemblages were subjectively defined based on sediment surface features. There were statistically significant natural changes in diversity and species composition between years, especially in the association initially characterised by the razor-clam Ensis, and possible reasons for this are discussed. It is suggested that setting fixed local limits on natural variability is almost always impractical. Two possible approaches to distinguishing between natural and anthropogenic changes are suggested; a change in ecological condition as indicated by AMBI scores, and a significant change in average taxonomic distinctness (?+) compared with expectation. The determination of species biomasses as well as abundances might also open more possibilities for assessment. The practice of setting objectives for a marine Special Area of Conservation (SAC) feature that include the range and number of biotopes cannot be supported, in view of the difficulty in ascribing assemblages to recognised biotopes. A more realistic definition of species assemblages might best be gained from examination of the species that consistently make a substantial contribution to the Bray-Curtis similarity among samples collected from specific sites. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.",,109-119,,,98,,J.

The challenge in assessing management effectiveness lies largely in the development of accurate estimates to track stock size through time.

Importantly, the government also partnered with academic and nonprofit organizations to establish a research and monitoring program (Grouper Moon) aimed at documenting the impacts of conservation action. Here, we develop an integrated population model of 2 Cayman Nassau grouper stocks based on both diver-collected mark-resight observations and video censuses. Using both data types across multiple years, we fit parameters for a state-space model for population growth. We show that over the last 15 y the Nassau grouper population on Little Cayman has more than tripled in response to conservation efforts. Census data from Cayman Brac, while more sparse, show a similar pattern. These findings demonstrate that spatial and seasonal closures aimed at rebuilding aggregationbased fisheries can foster conservation success. © 2020 National Academy of Sciences.

After populations recover from fishing pressure, abundances and densities of formerly fished species increase, and we should therefore expect changes in demographic traits compared to those in exploited populations. To test this, we used capture-mark-recapture data for 10 Galaxias maculatus populations across a density gradient mediated by different degrees of fishery closure. We examined the extent to which density-dependent (DD) and density-independent (DI) effects interact to affect specific growth rates in post-recruit populations. We found that population density, stream temperature and individual size interact to affect growth rates. When population densities were high, compensatory responses of far slower growth rates were strongest, indicating that DD growth is a key mechanism regulating post-recruit populations of G. maculatus. This study emphasizes the importance of understanding DD and DI processes, their interactions, function and effectiveness for freshwater fisheries management. For FPAs to be effective, the extent and quality of target species' habitats must serve as key criteria for protection to alleviate competition for limited resources that underpins DD processes. © 2022 The Authors.",,,,1967,289,,Proc.

It has been suggested MPAs can benefit mobile stocks by protecting spawning grounds whilst also allowing yields to be maintained as mature fish move out of the protected areas. However, the robustness of this claim in mixed species fisheries has yet to be established. We use a simulation model to explore the efficacy of spatial closures and effort regulation when other forms of fishery control (e.g., Total Allowable Catches) are absent or non-enforced as ways of addressing management objectives that are difficult to reconcile due to the contrasting life-histories of a target and a bycatch, conservation species in a two-species fishery. The mobility of each stock in such a fishery affects the benefits conferred by an MPA. The differing management objectives of the two species can be partially met by effort regulations or closures when the species exhibit similar mobility. However, a more mobile conservation species prevents both sets of aims being met by either management tool. We use simulations to explore how spatial closures and effort regulation can be used to seek compromise between stakeholders when the mobility of one stock prevents conflicting management objectives to be fully met. Our results demonstrate that stock mobility is a key factor in considering whether an MPA can meet conflicting aims in a multispecies fishery compromised of stocks with differing life histories and mobilities. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,219,,Fish.

In the United Kingdom (UK), Lundy Island in the Bristol Channel was designated a No-Take Zone (NTZ) in 2003 and became the UK's first Marine Conservation Zone (MCZ) in 2009. This NTZ is expected to represent an additional resource for the sustainable management of the European lobster (Homarus gammarus) fishery. As the first step in a genetic monitoring program, this study aimed to investigate population genetic structure of lobster within and between the Irish Sea and Bristol Channel and in doing so to assess the functioning of the Lundy NTZ in the context of connectivity and other genetic parameters. Analysis of microsatellite data indicated that lobsters within the study area are genetically homogeneous and supports the view of a single panmictic population wherein the Lundy NTZ is highly connected. Levels of genetic variability were universally high with no evidence of differences for the NTZ. Furthermore, there was no evidence of recent genetic bottlenecks, and estimates of effective population sizes were infinitely large. The results suggest that if current management and breeding stock sizes are maintained genetic drift will not be strong enough to reduce neutral genetic diversity. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.",,287-293,,,183,,Fish.

There is a real risk that Target 11 may be achieved in terms of area while failing the overall strategic goal for which it is established because the areas are poorly located, inadequately managed, or based on unjustifiable inclusion of OECMs. We argue that the conservation science community can help establish ecologically sensible PA targets to help prioritize important biodiversity areas and achieve ecological representation; identify clear, comparable performance metrics of ecological effectiveness so progress toward these targets can be assessed; and identify metrics and report on the contribution OECMs make toward the target. By providing ecologically sensible targets and new performance metrics for measuring the effectiveness of both PAs and OECMs, the science community can actively ensure that the achievement of the required area in Target 11 is not simply an end in itself but generates genuine benefits for biodiversity. © 2016, Society for Conservation Biology.",,243-248,,2,30,,Conserv.

However, given that many CBD signatory nations prioritised quantity (e.g., area) over quality (e.g., important areas for biodiversity) when attempting to meet their 2010 CBD Aichi protected area commitments, it is critical that nations focus on protecting those terrestrial, inland waters and marine areas that have the best chance of halting and reversing biodiversity loss and thus contribute to Goal A of the K-M GBF. Here we provide a review on the type of areas that nations need to prioritise when implementing Target 3 that relates to area ‘quality’: areas of particular importance for biodiversity and ecosystem functions and services, are effectively conserved and managed through ecologically representative, well-connected and equitably governed systems. We show that data is available for 12 distinct biodiversity conservation and ecosystem service elements that can be mapped and, if conserved, will (with appropriate management) help meet the broad intention of Target 3. We highlight examples of the planning methods available that can be utilized so these areas can be targeted for protection. We discuss issues related to trade-offs regarding how to prioritise amongst them as well as to operationalise some of the vaguer concepts like ‘representation’ and ‘ecosystem functions and services’ so that they achieve the best outcomes for biodiversity. © 2023 The Authors.

However, there remains substantial debate over their design and, in particular, how to best account for the spatial dynamics of nearshore marine species. Many commercially important nearshore marine species are sedentary as adults, with limited home ranges. It is as larvae that they disperse greater distances, traveling with ocean currents sometimes hundreds of kilometers. As a result, these species exist in spatially complex systems of connected subpopulations. Here, we explicitly account for the mutual dependence of subpopulations and approach protected area design in terms of network robustness. Our goal is to characterize the topology of nearshore metapopulation networks and their response to perturbation, and to identify critical subpopulations whose protection would reduce the risk for stock collapse. We define metapopulation networks using realistic estimates of larval dispersal generated from ocean circulation simulations and spatially explicit metapopulation models, and we then explore their robustness using node-removal simulation experiments. Nearshore metapopulations show small-world network properties, and we identify a set of highly connected hub subpopulations whose removal maximally disrupts the metapopulation network. Protecting these subpopulations reduces the risk for systemic failure and stock collapse.

Although the adaptability of the gear through changes in materials, lengths, and deployment strategies has resulted in generally high selectivity for many target species, the bycatch of protected species by pelagic longlines is considered a global problem in the conservation effort to sustain populations of sea turtles, sea birds, and some istiophorid billfishes (sail-fishes; spearfishes; marlins). Recent research on the modification of pelagic longline fishing strategies uses this inherent adaptability of the gear to avoid or reduce the mortality of bycatch species. This is an alternative to the traditionial management strategy of closed areas, which fishermen view as less effective and generally more restrictive (limiting) with respect to target catches. this work with academic partners and commercial fishermen has resulted in the development of bycatch reduction strategies which include safe handling and release gear and protocols, use of circle hooks in place of traditional J-style hooks, restrictions on gangion and mainline lengths, and corrodible hooks.",,06-Nov,,3,40,,Mar.

As such, there is a need for improved understanding of the link between habitat condition and ES provision, using comparable indicators in order to take more informed management decisions. Here the UK, Solent Marine Sites (SEMS) is used as a case study system to demonstrate how Water Framework Directive (WFD) ‘ecological status’ and other indicators of ecosystem condition (state or quality) can be coupled with habitat extent information to deliver a more precise locally-tailored NC approach for active coastal and marine habitat restoration. Habitat extent and condition data are collected for seven NbS relevant coastal habitats (littoral sediment, mat-forming green macroalgae, subtidal sediment, saltmarsh, seagrass, reedbeds and native oyster beds). The workflow includes: 1) biophysical assessment of regulatory ES; 2) monetary valuation; and 3) compilation of future scenarios of habitat restoration and creation. The results indicate that incorporating classifications by condition indices into local NC extent accounts improved ES benefits by 11–67%. This suggests that omitting condition from NC assessments could lead to undervaluation of ES benefits. Future scenarios of restoration in the SEMS also show that the additional regulatory benefits of reaching ‘Good’ ecological status are Ł376 million annually, but could be as much as Ł1.218 billion if ‘High‘status and all habitat creation targets were met. This evidence of the potential value of restoration and importance of including condition indices in assessments is highly relevant to consider when investing in water ecosystems conservation and restoration as called for by the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration (2021?2030), and more generally in global nutrient neutrality and blue carbon policy strategies. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,838,,Sci.

MPAs aim to minimise the socio-economic costs associated with closures or other management restrictions while still achieving the desired conservation objectives. However, the decision to use MPAs (and thereby restrict fishing) is often taken in the light of uncertainty over the value of the reserved habitats to the fishing industry. This paper reports on a choice experiment study carried out in Ireland in early 2007 aimed at partly addressing this uncertainty. The study primarily focused on determining the economic value held by the Irish public for the conservation of deep-sea corals using several variants of the concept of MPAs. They have endorsed MPA strategies that banned trawling in an MPA that included all areas where corals are thought to exist with no personal tax imposed, banned trawling in an MPA covering all known corals with a personal tax imposed of €1 p.a. and banned all fishing in an MPA covering all areas where corals are thought to exist with a personal tax imposed of €1 p.a. In terms of the probabilities attached to the individual attributes, the most preferred policy options were to ban trawling, protect all areas where corals are thought to exist, and pay a ring-fenced personal tax of €1 p.a. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.",,59-67,,01-Mar,107,,Fish.

In this paper we describe a substantial extension of Marxan called Marxan with Zones, a decision support tool that provides land-use zoning options in geographical regions for biodiversity conservation. We describe new functions designed to enhance the original Marxan software and expand on its utility as a decision support tool. The major new element in the decision problem is allowing any parcel of land or sea to be allocated to a specific zone, not just reserved or unreserved. Each zone then has the option of its own actions, objectives and constraints, with the flexibility to define the contribution of each zone to achieve targets for pre-specified features (e.g. species or habitats). The objective is to minimize the total cost of implementing the zoning plan while ensuring a variety of conservation and land-use objectives are achieved. We outline the capabilities, limitations and additional data requirements of this new software and perform a comparison with the original version of Marxan. We feature a number of case studies to demonstrate the functionality of the software and highlight its flexibility to address a range of complex spatial planning problems. These studies demonstrate the design of multiple-use marine parks in both Western Australia and California, and the zoning of forest use in East Kalimantan. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

It will also provide an insight into the planning, organisation and special technical features implemented for operations in an environmentally sensitive area and a number of key lessons learnt. The North European Wadden Sea coast, bordering Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands is a region of extremely high environmental and political sensitivity. The successful development of the Mittelplate oil field in a National Park off the west coast of Germany, provides an excellent example that oil exploration and production can be tailored to the demands of such sensitive and protected areas. During 1996 and 1997, exploration seismic was carried out in the tidal flats and saltmarshes of the Wadden Sea National Park. This was the first survey of its kind in Germany and attracted a high degree of interest from both public and industry alike. The physical and environmental constraints of the location called for specially designed equipment and a number of unique planning and organisational features to be implemented in the surveys. Extensive monitoring was carried out above and below water to determine the effect of the seismic activities on the marine life. The survey has provided the operating company and the authorities with new information for use in future seismic programmes, not only in Germany but also in other protected coastal areas around the world.

A multidisciplinary ecological assessment of the bays was conducted from April 2007-May 2008 aimed at generating a baseline of conditions to confirm the trophic status and importance of the area thus providing support for its designation as a protected area. Water column assessment included zooplankton and phytoplankton collections for 12monthsat 11 stations. Zooplankton tows were conducted using a 200?m net (0.5m hoop diameter) contemporaneous with 5l Niskin bottle casts for phytoplankton. Zooplankton abundances were determined for nine functional groups (calanoids, cyclopoids, harpacticoids, nauplii, copepodites, carnivores: medusa and chaetognaths, larvaceans and larvae) for which equivalent biomass was generated using conversion factors based on previous studies in Jamaica. Total phytoplankton biomass (mg Chl a m-3) was determined directly using filtration (onto a 0.7?m filter) and fluorometry while detritus was estimated using the model. Ecopath with Ecosim 5.1 was then used to model the trophic interactions of the planktonic community in the Morant wetlands bays. 116 different taxa of zooplankton were identified with a mean total abundance ranging from 282±56 to 3459±752animalsm-3 across the annual cycle. Total phytoplankton biomass (Chlorophyll a) ranged from 0.14±0.04 to 0.34±0.2mgm-3 across the annual cycle. A similar study in a pristine bay (Discovery Bay) on the north coast of Jamaica indicated mean zooplankton abundances between 1077±191 and 3794±87animalsm-3 and phytoplankton biomass between 0.4 and 0.8mgm-3. The plankton parameters suggest that Foul and Folly Bays are even more pristine than Discovery Bay and the Ecopath model indicated that unlike Discovery Bay, these Morant wetlands bays were far more resilient and therefore able to recover from stresses (e.g. eutrophication). However, there is still need for protection of this pristine area as the high abundance of larvae coupled with fast flowing currents through the bays provides evidence that this area could be an important source of larvae to other areas of Jamaica's south coast. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,127-137,,,105,,Ocean Coast.

Growing pressure on coastal and marine resources, international conservation targets set for 2020, and the persistence of 'paper parks' (i.e. only nominally declared) are some of the main reasons behind this trend. Based on the assumption that the prevalence of paper parks is associated with shortcomings in their institutional design, this article explores how institutional change theories, mainly from historical institutionalism, could add to the understanding of marine protected area governance. First, mechanisms leading to either stability or change of institutions are reviewed. Then, examples from existing literature are used to illustrate how these mechanisms might be preventing or enhancing the progress of marine protected areas. The focus is on developing countries where poorly functioning marine protected areas seem to be the norm rather than the exception. The analysis reveals that institutional change theories can be a helpful analytical tool to examine how institutions encompassing well-known challenges of marine protected areas, such as terrestrial conservation poorly adapted to marine ecosystems, imported conservation paradigms not fitting local realities, and difficulties posed by an incoherence of policies and top-down approaches to management, have developed over time. Conditions leading actors to notice these problems and take action to solve them as well as how they go about implementing changes are also explored. Finally, it is suggested that the issues raised here regarding the persistence of problems and how they are being tackled, especially those concerning the political process, can be beneficial to other fields of environmental governance. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,154-162,,,31,,Global Environ.

Coastal Alabama, in the southeastern United States, is a hotspot for biodiversity and endemism and needs protection. Land and wildlife management practices in Alabama have moved from indigenous-led, which is more in harmony with the environment, to larger-scale exploitative uses for agriculture and plantations. We therefore predicted that a large proportion of the population has a dominant view of the environment in which land and wildlife are primarily for human benefit. To test this hypothesis, we surveyed over 1300 residents in Mobile and Baldwin counties—the two southernmost counties in Alabama—to assess attitudes toward local vertebrate wildlife, knowledge of the region's biodiversity, and whether individuals value protected areas where they live and/or work. As hunting is generally considered a dominant behavior, we used self-identified hunters versus non-hunters to examine the relationship between humans and the environment. Overall, hunters would kill or kill to eat more often than non-hunters, and would kill even when it is not for food. Furthermore, regardless of hunting status, most participants in our survey would kill a snake, indicating that targeted environmental education is needed for this group. Both hunters and non-hunters, independently of demographic differences including education and income levels, were not familiar with the especially rich biodiversity of the area and would not be willing to invest money to protect it. Our results indicate that targeted education about the unique and rich biodiversity of southern Alabama compared to the rest of the United States is needed to support successful environmental management, conservation actions, and local participation. © 2023 The Authors.

Appropriate management is a key factor in maintaining habitat quality of the remaining most valuable sites and should thus be an essential part of monitoring studies. However, information on management is often missing and fine-scale patterns are difficult to assess, especially over large areas and for past decades. The aim of this study was to predict habitat quality of protected dry grasslands in Switzerland. Using a nation-wide in-situ vegetation data set with plot-based species lists, we derived six habitat quality indicators (management tolerance, light availability, nutrient content, moisture content and species richness). We then tested how well satellite-based phenology metrics, in combination with environmental and climate data, can predict these dry grassland habitat quality indicators. We expected that the seasonal pattern of vegetation activity, based on the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), would represent local productivity and management patterns, two crucial indicators of dry grassland habitat quality. Linear regression analysis was conducted to assess the relative importance and ecological relationship of different NDVI metrics and other environmental and climate predictors for habitat quality. Variance partitioning was applied to assess model contributions of the three variable groups which represent different data sources for productivity and management. Accuracies for the habitat quality prediction models ranged between 34% and 57% and significant correlations with multiple NDVI metrics were found. Including NDVI phenology improved all models by 7–12%. Single contributions of NDVI phenology were highest for management tolerance and nutrient content. However, we found high variation of contributions between management types. NDVI metrics were highly informative for the habitat qualities of abandoned sites, but grazing and mowing reduced or even cancelled their predictive power. Moreover, our results demonstrate the limitation of single-date NDVI values in predicting habitat quality of dry grasslands, in particular pastures and meadows. For monitoring applications of dry grasslands, we propose using a combination of NDVI metrics, as our results showed that they greatly improve prediction results of essential habitat qualities. The Landsat legacy dataset facilitates the assessment of habitat changes during past decades and can be complemented in the future with higher resolution data, such as Sentinel-2, to increase the temporal and spatial resolution so analyses are more appropriate for the typically limited size of dry grassland habitat sites in Switzerland. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,447-460,,,91,,Ecol.

In order to balance economic interests with the conservation of abyssal plain ecosystems, it is becoming increasingly important to develop a systematic approach to spatial management and zoning of the deep sea. Here, we describe an expert-driven systematic conservation planning process applied to inform science-based recommendations to the International Seabed Authority for a system of deep-sea marine protected areas (MPAs) to safeguard biodiversity and ecosystem function in an abyssal Pacific region targeted for nodule mining (e.g. the Clarion-Clipperton fracture zone, CCZ). Our use of geospatial analysis and expert opinion in forming the recommendations allowed us to stratify the proposed network by biophysical gradients, maximize the number of biologically unique seamounts within each subregion, and minimize socioeconomic impacts. The resulting proposal for an MPA network (nine replicate 400 × 400 km MPAs) covers 24% (1 440 000 km2) of the total CCZ planning region and serves as example of swift and pre-emptive conservation planning across an unprecedented area in the deep sea. As pressure from resource extraction increases in the future, the scientific guiding principles outlined in this research can serve as a basis for collaborative international approaches to ocean management. © 2013 The Author(s) Published by the Royal Society.",,,,1773,280,,Proc.

Yet for many commercially and ecologically important coral reef fish species, connectivity among different habitats in a seascape may be more important than any single habitat alone. Approaches to conservation prioritisation that consider seascape connectivity are thus warranted. I demonstrate an approach that can be implemented within a relatively data-poor context, using widely available conservation planning software. Based on clearly stated assumptions regarding species’ habitat usage and movement ability, this approach can be adapted to different focal species and contexts, or refined as further data become available. I first derive a seascape connectivity metric based on area-weighted proximity between juvenile and adult habitat patches, and then apply this during spatial prioritisation using the decision-support software Marxan. Using a case study from Micronesia, I present two applications: first, to inform prioritisation for a network of marine protected areas to achieve regional objectives for habitat representation; and second, to identify nursery habitat patches that are most likely to supply juveniles to adult populations on reefs within existing protected areas. Incorporating seascape connectivity in conservation prioritisation highlights areas where small marine protected areas placed on coral reefs might benefit from proximity to other habitats in the seascape, and thus be more effective. Within the context of community tenure over resources, identification of critical nursery habitats to improve the effectiveness of existing marine protected areas indicates where collaboration across community boundaries might be required. Outputs from these analyses are likely to be most useful in regions where management is highly decentralised, imposing spatial constraints on the size of individual protected areas. © 2017 Rebecca Weeks.

The development of this system will proceed primarily through the implementation of ecological, social, and governance MPA networks at the sub-national scale. We describe six case studies that exemplify different approaches taken to develop MPA networks in the Coral Triangle region at different scales: Nusa Penida in Indonesia; Tun Mustapha Park in Malaysia; Kimbe Bay in Papua New Guinea; Verde Island Passage in the Philippines; The Lauru Ridges to Reefs Protected Area Network in Choiseul, Solomon Islands; and Nino Konis Santana Park in Timor Leste. Through synthesis of these case studies, we identify five common themes that contributed to successful outcomes: (1) the need for multi-stakeholder and cross-level management institutions; (2) the value of integrating cutting-edge science with local knowledge and community-based management; (3) the importance of building local capacity; (4) using multiple-use zoning to balance competing objectives; and (5) participation in learning and governance networks.

However, in many regions where conservation action is needed most urgently, socioeconomic data are not available at spatial scales relevant to conservation planning. In the Philippines, the primary stakeholders relevant to conservation efforts in coastal waters are small-scale fishers. Unlike commercial fisheries, no logbook data are kept to record fishers' spatial effort and usage patterns. We investigated the effects of including different surrogates for small-scale fishing effort in the systematic design of an MPA network for Siquijor Province. We compared a reserve selection scenario in which socioeconomic data were not considered with four different surrogates for fishing effort and with empirical data on the spatial distribution of fishing effort collected through interviews. We assumed that minimising opportunity costs to fishers would increase the likelihood that they would support and comply with MPA implementation, resulting in more effective conservation. Surrogates modelled on the number of fishers or boats in each community consistently outperformed those based on population census data. However, none of the surrogates we tested were able to accurately predict fine-scale resource use patterns. Whilst socioeconomic surrogates may be able to assist conservation planners to identify regional-scale opportunities where conservation objectives may be met more easily, they cannot act as a shortcut for comprehensive consultation with communities, which will be required to identify actual sites for MPA implementation. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

We combine satellite images and citizen science to model habitat suitability for crabeater seals (Lobodon carcinophaga) throughout the Weddell Sea. Location: Weddell Sea, Antarctica. Methods: High-resolution satellite images covering 18,219 km2 of the Weddell Sea during crabeater seal breeding season (October—November) were hosted on the crowd-sourcing platform Tomnod (DigitalGlobe). Citizen scientists marked “maps” where seals were present/absent and these votes were compared with the votes of an experienced observer. Correction factors were used to correct votes to either a continuous probability of seal presence, or a binary seal presence/absence value. We modelled probability of seal presence using ensemble models of Random Forests (RF), Boosted Regression Trees (BRT) and Support Vector Machines (SVM), and used fitted Maxent models to model seal presence/absence data. Results: Model predictive power was low (RF: R2 = 0.076 ± 0.002: BRT: R2 = 0.086 ± 0.0008; SVM: R2 = 0.082 ± 0.003) to average (Maxent: AUC = 0.71 ± 0.004). Distance to the ice edge and bathymetry were the most important variables that influenced crabeater seal distribution. Main conclusions: Crabeater seals were more likely to be present over abyssal water, which coincides with typical adult Antarctic krill habitat — crabeater seal preferred prey. Where ice concentrations were more variable, that is more accessible, crabeater seals were also more likely to occur. Results agreed with the known ecology of crabeaters seals and the abundance, distribution and ecology of Antarctic krill. We were able to survey the largest area ever surveyed in the Weddell Sea and provide a model to assist furthering policy around the proposed protected area. © 2020 The Authors.

Location: Canadian Pacific, Arctic and Atlantic Oceans from the intertidal zone to upper bathyal depths, encompassing 13 marine ecoregions. Methods: We compiled 35 benthic datasets that encompass 3,337 taxa (70% identified to species and 21% to genus) from 13,172 samples spanning 6,117 sites. Partitioning the analyses by different gear types, ecoregions or sites, we used Hill numbers to examine spatial patterns in ?-diversity. We used resampling and extrapolation to standardized sampling effort and examined the effects of depth, latitude, chemical energy (export particulate organic carbon [POC] flux), thermal energy (bottom temperature) and seasonality of primary production on the benthic biodiversity. Results: The Canadian Arctic harboured the highest benthic diversity (e.g. epifauna and common and dominant infauna species), whereas the lowest diversity was found in the Atlantic. The Puget Trough (Pacific), Beaufort Sea, Arctic Archipelago, Hudson Bay, Northern Labrador and Southern Grand Bank (Atlantic) were the “hotspots"" of diversity among the ecoregions. The infauna and epifauna both exhibited hump-shaped diversity–depth relationships, with peak diversity near shelf breaks; latitude (positively) predicted infaunal diversity, albeit weakly. Food supply, as inferred from primary production and depth, was more important than thermal energy in controlling diversity patterns. Limitations with respect to calculating POC flux in coastal (e.g. terrestrial runoff) and ice-covered regions or biological interactions may explain the negative POC flux–infaunal diversity relationship. Main Conclusions: We show previously unreported diversity hotspots in the Canadian Arctic and in other ecoregions. Our analyses reveal potential controlling mechanisms of large-scale benthic biodiversity patterns in Canada's three oceans, which are inconsistent with the prevailing view of seafloor energy–diversity relationships. These results provide insightful information for conservation that can help to implement further MPA networks. © 2019 The Authors.

Biodiversity conservation has been upgraded to a national strategy and incorporated into the top-level design, with laws and regulations gradually being improved and major scientific breakthroughs continuously being achieved. Through the implementation of major biodiversity conservation and ecological restoration projects, establishment of protected area system, and delineation of ecological red line, important ecosystems and endangered species have been effectively protected, and social participation and public awareness have been significantly improved. In addition, by signing a number of biodiversity-related international conventions and agreements and proposing the “Belt and Road Initiative International Green Development Coalition”, China has transformed from an important participant to an active contributor of international agreements. However, there are still problems to be solved and areas for further improvement in biodiversity conservation, such as pursuing quantitative targets while ignoring ecosystem structure and connectivity, insufficient conservation input on marine ecosystem, single source conservation funding mechanism, and non-uniform monitoring data which cannot be effectively integrated and analyzed. In the future, conservation strategies should focus on strengthening top-level design; promoting the synergy between conventions; integrating biodiversity conservation into the territorial and spatial planning, and pollution control; improving quality instead of pursuing quantitative targets; reinforcing marine biodiversity conservation, the construction of wild animal genetic resources bank and field stations, and the research in invasive species and wildlife infectious diseases; and building a big data platform to facilitate the sharing and data mining of biodiversity information.

Degree-day or temperature index models (TIMs) as well as energy balance models (EBMs) are conventional to quantify catchment runoff. Whereas the former exploit relationships between snow (and/or ice) melt and air temperatures, the latter rest upon quantifying melt as the deviation from heat balance equations. However, the 2 approaches contain distinct drawbacks. For example, increasing temporal resolution decreases the accuracy of TIMs, and no spatial variability is provided, whereas EBMs have large dataset requirements for climate, landscape and soil properties. Nevertheless, detailed knowledge about shifts in seasonal ablation times and spatial distribution of snow cover is crucial for understanding hydrological systems, plant distribution and various other research interests. Therefore, we propose a statistical model based on a combination of high resolution spatio-temporal climate datasets and climate-related topographic data, which were obtained by meteorological network stations, remote sensing and GIS analysis. The main objectives were to identify suitable inputs and to develop a robust binary snow distribution model that enables the mapping of major physical processes controlling snow accumulation, melt and stagnation in a high mountain environment in the Gaurishankar Conservation Area in Nepal. We used the random forest technique, which represents a state of the art machine learning algorithm. The snow distribution was predicted very accurately with high spatio-temporal resolution (daily on 0.5 × 0.5 km), with hit rates of around 90% and an overall model accuracy of 90.8% compared to independent Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) observations. © Inter-Research 2018.",,181-199,,3,75,,Clim.

MPAs are unlikely to generate benefits if implemented in isolation. The spatial and temporal distribution of benefits and costs needs to be taken into account since proximal fishery-dependent communities may experience higher fishing costs over the short and long-term while the fisheries benefits from MPAs may only accrue over the long-term.Key lessons for effectively bridging the divide between biodiversity conservation and fisheries sustainability goals in the context of MPAs include: creating spaces and processes for engagement, incorporating fisheries in MPA design and MPAs into fisheries management, engaging fishers in management, recognizing rights and tenure, coordinating between agencies and clarifying roles, combining no-take-areas with other fisheries management actions, addressing the balance of costs and benefits to fishers, making a long-term commitment, creating a collaborative network of stakeholders, taking multiple pressures into account, managing adaptively, recognizing and addressing trade-offs, and matching good governance with effective management and enforcement. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,199-215,,S2,24,,Aquatic Conserv.

This paper presents a counterfactual approach of fishing households’ profitability and vulnerability after the setting up of a marine and coastal protected area (MPA). By using the DID method (Difference-in-Differences), this approach is a comparison of average change in outcome over time for the treated group (fishing households with a main fishing ground adjacent to the MPA) and for the control group (fishing households with a main fishing ground remote from the MPA). From a dataset made up of 183 fishing households in Betenti Islands (Saloum, Delta, Senegal) surveyed twice (one year before the MPA's setting up and six years after it) and divided in two geographical strata, the main result is the applicability and confirmation of the value of a counterfactual approach to assess the positive effect of proximity with a MPA on fishing households’ income and vulnerability, independently of fishing productive assets and conditions, and of any change that have affected them during the period taken in consideration. This counterfactual assessment should help to calibrate the necessary investments and to adapt the functioning of a MPA but also to target adequate mitigation and compensation measures for the non-beneficiary households. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,113-125,,,155,,Ocean Coast.

A Thai case study,FISHERIES RESEARCH,,0165-7836,10.1016/j.fishres.2014.06.012,,"Some recommendations made by the World Parks Congress in Durban (2003) underscore the need to consider the impacts of multi-purpose marine protected areas (MPAs) on resident or adjacent populations, and lead social and fisheries scientists to reconsider their approaches and methods regarding the assessment of economic effects of an MPA. This paper contributes to this reconsideration by proposing an assessment method of microeconomic effects. The approach is the comparison of fishing households' economic situation in Chumphon Province (Thailand) at a given time based on their location in relation to a marine protected area: within or adjacent to Chumphon Archipelago Marine National Park vs. remote from it. We address three economic dimensions: the profitability of household activities, the income-distributional effects among households and the household vulnerability. This assessment requires the calculation of five indicators: the net income, the net profit margin, the Gini coefficient and the Herfindahl index, and Bene's vulnerability index. From a dataset made up of 123 fishing households surveyed twice a year, the main results show higher incomes and less economic vulnerability for households located within or adjacent to the MPA, and a more inegalitarian income distribution among households located remote from the MPA. So, the households located within or adjacent to the MPA have more security, can stay focused on the most profitable fishing activities and not have to diversify outside of the fishing sector. In an environment where commercial small-scale fishing was already highly developed, setting up an MPA could have the effect of sustaining an efficient, specialised professional set-up for fishing households in the area concerned. With respect to a policy to establish MPAs in keeping with the Durban recommendations, this study shows that a thorough analysis of profitability, income distribution and economic vulnerability should help to identify who the Winners and losers might be, which could improve the targeting of mitigation and compensation measures.

Occurring only along the Atlantic coast of Africa, its restricted geographic range, reliance on nearshore habitat, and naturally low abundance make it highly vulnerable to human activities. Known immediate threats include bycatch in fisheries, especially gillnets, and deliberate hunting for fishing bait and human consumption. The scale of those mortalities remains unknown, but they are suspected to be widespread. Other potential threats include habitat loss and degradation, pollution and prey depletion. Conservation management strategies are hindered by significant data deficits, lack of funding, and numerous anthropogenic factors including high levels of human poverty across the countries where the species occurs, and lack of local scientists, resources, and political will. Although the deteriorating status of the Atlantic humpback dolphin has been recognized for decades, those concerns have not yet translated into tangible management actions to stabilize or increase populations. Some Atlantic humpback dolphin populations may still have long-term viability, if habitat protection and targeted threat management are implemented. As a minimum, it is recommended that management should incorporate the development of a collaborative and transboundary species action plan, mitigation of bycatch (such as subsidies for gillnet removal), designation of managed protected areas where threats are removed, robust population assessments, increased awareness and capacity-building, and preparation for informed discussion regarding the viability of future ex situ management options. Without immediate action, the outlook for the Atlantic humpback dolphin is poor. © 2022 Elsevier Inc.

The Canary Islands are of volcanic origin and eruptions have always constituted part of their natural disturbance regime. Until recently, their impacts could not be directly observed and studied. Influence of the emission of phytotoxic gases on biodiversity and ecosystem dynamics was hitherto unknown. The recent eruption is still being intensely monitored. We used Sentinel-2 remote sensing data to analyze the spatial extent and intensity of the impact related to sulfuric emissions, aiming to understand the damage patterns in Canary pine forest. The emissions damaged 10% of that forest and affected 5.3% of the Natura 2000 protected areas. We concluded that this is largely due to the toxic effects of the enormous emissions of SO2 . We found a clear correlation between the change in the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and distance from the eruption. This pattern was weakly anisotropic, with stronger damage in southern directions. Counteracting effects, such as ash deposition, were largely excluded by combining NDVI change detection with tree cover density. We expect that vegetation damage will be transient. P. canariensis can resprout after forest fires, where most leaves are lost. Consequently, our assessment can serve as a reference for future ecosystem regeneration. © 2022 by the authors.

However, owing to the challenges of planning for features that are spatially and temporally variable, mobile species are rarely accounted for in conservation planning. To protect this dynamic process, planners need a temporally explicit surrogate for species seasonal movement pathways. Because reserve networks typically aim to represent the full spectrum of biodiversity, these surrogates also need to capture the assemblage-level organization of species in order to preserve the full range of seasonal movement pathways that occur within a given planning region. To this end, this study introduces a new assemblage-level surrogate strategy for species seasonal movements that preserves variation in biodiversity across the 12 months. Two monthly, assemblage-level attributes were integrated: discrete species assemblages and continuous assemblage suitability, thereby allowing planners to select complementary combinations of sites that achieve comprehensive assemblage coverage in each month. As a marine case-study, this strategy was applied to the US Mid-Atlantic, and a gap analysis was used to evaluate the ability of the Mid-Atlantic's current spatial management scheme to accommodate species' seasonal movements. The results indicate that current protected areas in the Mid-Atlantic will be unable to meet even modest quantitative objectives for protecting seasonal movements, and priority conservation areas are identified for designing a reserve network that offers year-round protection. Planning for processes remains a significant gap in conservation planning, and this study seeks to address this gap by proposing a surrogate strategy that will aid the incorporation of a widespread dynamic process into reserve design. This strategy uses public, predominantly global datasets that have terrestrial and marine counterparts, making it applicable to planning for species seasonal movements both on land and at sea.

To achieve this, planners need information on how these processes vary across space and time, and how this variation relates to species of conservation interest. This study presents a new method of quantifying variability that captures both between- and within-year changes in variables of interest. We applied this method to remotely-sensed chlorophyll-a in the Coral Sea to find five distinct regimes of variation that serve as surrogates for assemblages of species of conservation interest. We performed a gap analysis to determine protection of the regimes both internationally and nationally within Australia's network of marine reserves in the Coral Sea. We also identified key areas for protection within each regime, in terms of chlorophyll-a variability and species associations, and examined their protection status. Depending on conservation objectives, reserve systems that span multiple national jurisdictions and a rezoning of Australian national waters might be necessary to meet protection requirements for the regimes and for key areas within them. The current suspension and review of the Coral Sea Commonwealth Marine Reserve management plans and the recent proclamation of New Caledonia's as yet unzoned Coral Sea Nature Park offer planners an opportunity to incorporate dynamic processes into conservation planning for the Coral Sea. The method we present can be applied at other locations for time-series of any variable/s of interest, aiding the spatial management of dynamic features in both marine and terrestrial contexts.

One challenge of spatial management is navigating the prioritization of multiple features. This challenge becomes more pronounced in dynamic management scenarios, in which boundaries are flexible in space and time in response to changing biological, environmental, or socioeconomic conditions. To implement dynamic management, decision-support tools are needed to guide spatial prioritization as feature distributions shift under changing conditions. Marxan is a widely applied decision-support tool designed for static management scenarios, but its utility in dynamic management has not been evaluated. EcoCast is a new decision-support tool developed explicitly for the dynamic management of multiple features, but it lacks some of Marxan's functionality. We used a hindcast analysis to compare the capacity of these 2 tools to prioritize 4 marine species in a dynamic management scenario for fisheries sustainability. We successfully configured Marxan to operate dynamically on a daily time scale to resemble EcoCast. The relationship between EcoCast solutions and the underlying species distributions was more linear and less noisy, whereas Marxan solutions had more contrast between waters that were good and poor to fish. Neither decision-support tool clearly outperformed the other; the appropriateness of each depends on management purpose, resource-manager preference, and technological capacity of tool developers.

When we examined areas under consideration for protection or special management, we found that they failed to represent many of the most poorly represented ecosystem types and incorporated limited amounts of the remainder. Because these poorly represented types were relatively limited in area, it should be possible to adjust proposed reserve areas to improve representation of these types with limited impact on other values.

For the oceans, the overall aim is to establish, by 2012, an effectively managed, representative, global system of marine protected areas (MPAs) covering 10% of all marine ecological regions, comprising both multiple use areas and strictly protected areas. An analysis of data for three countries in Eastern Africa, where considerable efforts to promote MPAs by many agencies have been made over the past decade, shows that rapid progress has been made towards achieving this target. Since the first MPAs were established in the 1960s and 1970s, 8.7% of the continental shelf in Kenya, 8.1% in Tanzania and 4.0% in Mozambique has been designated, with the size of recently protected sites markedly larger than earlier sites. Commitments to expand the MPA networks in these countries would, if implemented, largely achieve the 10% coverage target. The location of existing marine protected areas shows good correlation with known sites of high species diversity; and coral reefs and Important Bird Areas are well represented. Management effectiveness of MPAs is also improving. However, there are major constraints to meeting the MPA target in these countries. Many habitats and species are not yet fully represented, the area closed to fishing is less than the recommended 20-30%, and capacity building is needed to improve many aspects of management. Furthermore, despite considerable investment in monitoring of coral reefs and other coastal habitats, the data available do not show clearly whether biodiversity and socio-economic objectives are being met. Although East African countries need to be congratulated for their vision, the results thus far indicate the urgency of both improving monitoring systems for measuring progress towards the targets, and also taking further steps to expand and improve management of existing MPAs. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

A handful of ‘parks’ were established between the 1870s and 1940s and, following World War II, increased awareness of threats to the ocean led to global programmes that started in the 1970–1980s. Initially IUCN became the leader, piloting a science-based ‘critical marine habitats’ approach, by which MPAs were aimed at conserving the healthiest and most diverse ecosystems, endangered and charismatic species, and high-profile habitats. During the 1970s, with the support of WWF, UNESCO, UNEP, and growing national efforts, the MPA concept evolved to include biosphere reserves, marine reserves and sanctuaries, large ocean reserves, and other designations that aimed to reconcile long-term protection with human use. From the 1980s, MPAs greatly expanded in number and scope. By the turn of the millennium, MPAs were proliferating, and principles and methodologies were available to guide their establishment and management in a harmonized manner. Zoning for different uses was widespread, but questions were being raised about the efficacy of biodiversity conservation in areas where extractive uses were permitted. MPA implementation accelerated once targets were introduced by the Convention on Biological Diversity. Campaigns and fundraising by non-governmental organizations and further national efforts resulted in a rapid increase although, by 2015, less than 4% of ocean surface was protected. Current challenges include: (1) understanding the role of MPAs in maintaining ecosystem services, fishery management, climate change adaptation and mitigation, and other emergent problems; (2) more rigorous network design; (3) effective governance and demonstration of ‘success’; and (4) integrating MPAs with marine spatial planning. While MPAs have provided one of the most viable and politically acceptable approaches to marine conservation for 50 years, their role in developing a fully effective marine ecosystems management regime has yet to be fully explored and understood.

For some species of conservation concern, hotspots have been delineated, often using individual abundance as the metric. However, areas that attract individuals from multiple breeding populations may be a higher priority for conservation. These areas may have more abundant resources or habitat quality, and multiple breeding populations simultaneously benefit from conservation actions in these areas. We identified non-spawning aggregations of Lake Sturgeon Acipenser fulvescens in lakes Huron and Erie of the Great Lakes. The spawning period in Lake Sturgeon only represents a brief portion of their life and conservation goals need to include non-spawning areas. Based on 12 microsatellite loci, we determined the population of origin of individuals in the aggregations and computed a modified population-level Simpson’s diversity index (pD). Using this criterion, two hotspots were identified. The North Channel of Lake Huron had the highest diversity of represented populations (pD = 3.14). The second identified hotspot was Saginaw Bay in Lake Huron (pD = 1.78). Both hotspots had evidence of long-distance movement into the area.

We synthesized the literature on temporarily conserved areas (TCAs) across Canada, the United States, and Mexico. We used a comprehensive search string to retrieve peer-reviewed articles published from 2000 to 2021 from the Web of Science. We identified 27 relevant peer-reviewed articles that examined the potential benefits of TCAs in the study area, indicating TCA is a relatively understudied area of research in the peer-reviewed literature. The TCA studies were highly clustered; 77% of studies focused on protecting a single life stage of migratory species and 61% of studies related to temporary conservation of breeding or staging habitats for migratory birds. Ninety-three percent of studies focused on preventing human-driven threats, mainly on public lands of coastal areas, the Great Plains, and the Mississippi Valley in the central United States. Short-term and experimental studies were the dominant study types. TCAs have the potential to complement permanently protected areas and provide protection when permanent protection is difficult. Some included studies examined their conservation value, but the ecological, social, and economic outcomes of TCAs are unclear. More TCA research is needed to determine the role they could play in conservation worldwide. Embracing the concept of TCAs as conservation tool could lead to more comprehensive and consistent reporting of the outcomes of temporary area-based conservation measures. However, a global review and analysis of effectiveness of TCAs will be required if they are to play a formal role in meeting international targets for biodiversity conservation. © 2023 The Authors.

Fujian Province, a biodiversity hotspot in China, requires dynamic conservation strategies to maintain habitat quality (HQ) and carbon storage (CS). This research introduces a novel framework that integrates land-use simulation and ecosystem service valuation models to address conservation challenges under varying climate scenarios. We employ the System Dynamics (SD), the Patch-generating Land Use Simulation (PLUS) model, and the Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Tradeoffs (InVEST) model to explore how future climate scenarios might alter land use, HQ, and CS, and determines the conservation priorities for Fujian Province by 2050 based on HQ, CS capacity, and a future vision for protection. Findings indicate: (1) Under SSP1-2.6, Fujian Province exhibits an increased demand for forests, grasslands, and water resources, while SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5 predict an elevated demand for urban land, extending into inland areas. (2) In SSP1-2.6, HQ and CS are expected to improve, with average HQ projected to rise to 0.71 and CS to 15.63 Mg/ha by 2050. Conversely, under SSP5-8.5, HQ is anticipated to decline to 0.66, and CS to 15.14 Mg/ha. SSP2-4.5 shows moderate levels, with slight decreases in HQ to 0.69 and CS to 15.34 Mg/ha due to moderate urban expansion. Nature reserves demonstrate the highest potential, while national parks remain stable and ocean parks perform poorly.

As baseline sea surface temperatures continue to rise, climate change may represent the single greatest threat to coral reefs worldwide. In response, one strategy might be to identify (1) specific reef areas where natural environmental conditions are likely to result in low or negligible temperature-related bleaching and mortality (i.e., areas of natural ""resistance"" to bleaching) and (2) reef areas where environmental conditions are likely to result in maximum recovery of reef communities after bleaching mortality has occurred (i.e., areas of natural community ""resilience""). These ""target areas,"" where environmental conditions appear to boost resistance and resilience during and after large-scale bleaching events, could then be incorporated into strategic networks of marine protected areas designed to maximize conservation of global coral reef biodiversity. Based on evidence from the literature and systematically compiled observations from researchers in the field, this paper identifies likely environmental correlates of resistance and resilience to coral bleaching, including factors that reduce temperature stress, enhance water movement, decrease light stress, correlate with physiological tolerance, and provide physical or biological enhancement of recovery potential. As a tool for identifying reef areas that are likely to be most robust in the face of continuing climate change and for determining priority areas for reducing direct anthropogenic impacts, this information has important implications for coral reef conservation and management.",,956-967,,4,17,,Conserv.

The goal of the study was to determine the status of these reefs and to monitor continuous change on the reef caused by human and non-human factors. Data on indicator fish, indicator invertebrate and indicator substrate as well as environment, socio-economic and human impacts was collected. The assessment of this data demonstrates that the two most obvious impacts were warm water bleaching and sewage pollution. Overall the study shows that live coral cover did not change significantly over the past six years. The results of these surveys were implemented into the Marine Parks management. First the survey technique was introduced to Marine Park personnel for long term monitoring. Priority and resilience areas where mapped out and established. Furthermore, a bleaching response plan was designed for Malaysia after the 2010 bleaching event and was implemented jointly with park management. In addition, pollution caused by growing ecotourism was recognized as a major impact to the coral reef status and measures like waste control were introduced and successfully established. Reef rehabilitation efforts in the form of coral transplanting were also undertaken at sites where the natural reef had suffered damage due to human and natural impacts. This reef rehabilitation project was used as a platform to involve tourism operators, local villagers and park managers in hands-on conservation in order to promote a better understanding of the importance of coral reefs. It was demonstrated that coral transplanting can be successfully used in reef rehabilitation. © 2014 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.

In some areas of the National Park agriculture is practised. Thus, the objective of this study was to document and analyse the different land use activities and their consequences for local resource management and conservation of biodiversity in two village areas. A particular question was: what has changed since the foundation of the National Park in 1996? As time series data for land use and aerial photographs were not available for this part of Cuba, a qualitative evaluation was carried out. For this, six different land use units were mapped in 2001 and additional information gathered for areas with special interest related to sustainable land use and resource conservation. Although most parts of the study area are influenced to various degrees by human impact, the different types of land use seem presently not to have a crucial or detrimental impact on the land resources of the Alexander von Humboldt National Park. However, exploitation of the natural resources in certain areas could be improved with different management options to reach sustainability as well as to meet the conservation objectives of the National Park. This includes reduced or abandoned agricultural use of steep slopes to reduce erosion risk as well as a facilitated regeneration of natural vegetation in many parts of the study area to be able to conserve the high valuable biodiversity of the Park.

Evidence suggests benefits of schemes have often been assumed rather than planned for, necessitating ex-post assessment to justify continuance.

REPS promoted a range of small-scale improvements in a bottom-up approach intended to reflect several high-level policy objectives primarily concerning environmental protection. The paper is based on analysis of ""landscape protection"" under the REPS from inception in 1994 until its phasing out period in 2015 when all participants will have completed their plans.

This paper reviews the status of marine protected areas (MPAs) and networks of MPA in Indonesia, draws on lessons learned, and highlights what has been learned from the design of a network of MPAs for Fisheries Management Area (FMA) 715 across six eastern provinces as an example of how such work can be adapted for other parts of the country and elsewhere. Nationally, the 235,622 km2 of MPAs are mostly large (average 2,380 km2) with use zones and small no-take areas (<15 percent). MPAs are implemented by provincial governments or one of 2 national agencies. The design of a network of MPAs across FMA 715 began with 14 MPAs covering 1,977,276 ha or 4% of the marine waters of FMA 715 in 2016. Now there are 48 MPAs covering 3,062,206 hectares in the planning area, and the design process identified an additional 44 Areas of Interest required to establish new MPAs to augment the existing MPAs in FMA 715 to achieve the objectives of enhancing fisheries, protecting biodiversity, adapting to climate change while supporting community livelihoods and traditional practices. Issues identified in the process are that the scale and complexity of science and management needed is beyond what most stakeholders can easily comprehend; that implementation cuts across multiple jurisdictions with a still-new formal mandate for planning and managing the large network area; and, that the present process could only be possible with outside facilitating expertise. Finally, since the national conservation agency is currently finalizing legal guidelines for the planning and implementation of sub-national networks of MPA, this process has educated many and the result will lend legal and governance support to the continued planning and implementation of the FMA 715 MPA Network and for other areas. © 2021 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.",,575-597,,6,49,,Coast.

Most of these islands have extensive coral reefs or coral communities. For centuries, reefs and their associated resources have provided the livelihood for a large portion of the coastal population. However, reefs as sources of income are threatened by over-exploitation and by the use of destructive fishing methods. The scientific community, natural resource managers and many of the small-scale fishermen are aware that catches are falling rapidly while the fast growing population requires increasing amounts of fish. Since the early 1970s, various programs have tried to counter the decline of Philippine coastal resources. This article reports about successful examples of reef conservation in the provinces of Negros Oriental, Batangas and the Tubbataha Reef National Marine Park, Palawan. In all three localities, significant areas of reefs are legally protected and sustainable management regimes are working effectively. In Negros and Batangas this success is partly a result of intensive education programs that contributed to the active involvement of the traditional fishermen and the larger coastal community. Community participation and co-operation of all institutions involved in resource management are regarded as the key elements of sustainable reef management in these areas. This paper presents the objectives, programs and achievements as well as the fruitful networking of the participating organizations. Particular emphasis is placed on the experiences and lessons emanating from 25 years of reef conservation while showing the overall objective of sustainable use is still far on the horizon. It is suggested that more integrated forms of management, involving various stakeholders, and that address the numerous intertwined issues, will save Philippine reefs.

Raja Ampat, Indonesia - located in the Coral Triangle, the heart of marine biodiversity - has a rich history of traditional management, which included area-based management tools akin to modern marine protected areas (MPAs). Decentralization and restoration of tenure rights in 2001 provided an opportunity for resurgence and stronger recognition of these traditional systems. Conservation non-governmental organizations (NGOs), noting the remarkable biodiversity and increasing threats due to destructive fishing practices, worked with local communities to facilitate community-based MPAs as a conservation strategy. Here we employed a case study approach to assess the specific bridging strategies utilized by NGOs during the adoption, implementation and management of the Raja Ampat MPA Network. This descriptive case study included six targeted in-depth interviews and other secondary sources. Our results suggest that NGOs played different roles over time in the MPA process. Interviewees identified specific initiatives that occurred during this process, which involved multiple bridging tools. Three of these key initiatives are: the Tourism Entrance Fee System, the Raja Ampat MPA Patrol System, and the Blue Abadi Fund. The specific bridging tools employed included: linking stakeholders, co-producing knowledge, providing access to resources, facilitating community engagement, and building capacity. Recent research has pointed to social and ecological effectiveness of the Raja Ampat MPA Network, which could in part be attributed to the bottom-up approach facilitated by NGOs, including through bridging practices. However, we also note the limitations of this study in only providing an NGO-centric perspective which may be more nuanced if other stakeholder perspectives could have been obtained. © 2022 The Authors",,,,,141,,Mar.

One potential role of marine reserves is buffering populations against disturbances, including the potential for disturbance-driven population collapses under Allee effects. This buffering capacity depends on reserves in a network providing rescue effects, setting up a tradeoff where reserves need to be connected to facilitate rescue, but also distributed in space to prevent simultaneous extinction. We use a set of population models to examine how dispersal ability and the disturbance regime interact to determine the optimal reserve spacing. We incorporate fishing in a spatially-explicit model to understand the effect of objective choice (e.g. conservation versus fisheries yield) on the optimal reserve spacing. We show that the optimal spacing between reserves increases when accounting for catastrophes with larger spacing needed when Allee effects interact with catastrophes to increase the probability of extinction. We also show that classic tradeoffs between conservation and fishing objectives disappear in the presence of catastrophes. Specifically, we found that at intermediate levels of disturbance, it is optimal to spread out reserves in order to increase both population persistence and to maximize spillover into non-reserve areas. © 2020 Nordic Society Oikos.

During the implementation of the State of California (USA) Marine Life Protection Act (MLPA), which mandates the creation of an MPA network in California's state waters, the stakeholders and policymakers utilized a pair of economic analyses that addressed these considerations. One was a comparative, static assessment of short-term, "" worst case"" potential socioeconomic impacts to important fisheries based on surveys of local fishermen. This analysis made no assumptions about fishery management outside of MPAs, assumed no spillover of fish from MPAs into fished areas or reallocation of fishing effort, and estimated the maximum potential dollar-value economic impacts over a short time scale. The other was a dynamic, bioeconomic assessment of the changes in spatial distribution of biomass and catch, based on published biological parameter values, oceanographic models of larval connectivity, and a range of possible levels of fishing. This analysis explicitly accounted for fish population dynamics, spillover, fisher movement, and fishery management outside of the MPAs, but was limited to long-term, equilibrium-based results because of a lack of baseline abundance data. Both evaluation methods were novel in their spatial resolution and their use directly in an MPA design process, rather than after implementation. The two methods produced broadly similar (at a regional spatial scale) evaluations of the likely effects of proposed MPAs on fisheries, at least when the bioeconomic model assumed fishery management was conservative. Our experience with these analyses in the MLPA Initiative process led to several suggestions for future MPA design efforts: (i) since the change in fish biomass inside MPAs partly depends on fisheries management outside of them, it is useful to integrate or coordinate conventional fishery management and MPA planning efforts; (ii) integrate modeling assessments early into MPA design, as part of a post-implementation adaptive management approach; and (iii) integrate empirical fishery data into bioeconomic models in order to improve representations of human behavior and short-term forecasts of changes in fished populations. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,77-89,,,74,,Ocean Coast.

Optimization tools such as Marxan navigate that tradeoff by finding reserve configurations that minimize economic costs while protecting some minimum fraction of fish habitat. However, typical Marxan implementations do not account for patterns of larval connectivity among reserves, a factor known to be the key to population dynamics. We show how connectivity information (self-recruitment and network centrality) can be incorporated into the optimization. We then used a spatially explicit population model to compare the performance of reserves designed using habitat information alone or including connectivity. Incorporating connectivity information improved reserve performance for some species but not others. We conclude that including connectivity information can improve reserve design algorithms, but it is essential to evaluate species' population dynamics to determine which species will benefit from a given reserve network. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.",,533-544,,6,7,,Conserv.

The factors affecting whether abundance will increase within a reserve are well characterized; however, those results are based on long-term equilibria of population models. Here we use age-structured models of a generic fish population to analyze the short-term transient response. We show that it may take decades for a fished population to reach postreserve equilibrium. In the meantime, short-term transient dynamics dominate. During the transient phase, population abundance could either remain unchanged, decrease, or exhibit single-generation oscillations, regardless of the eventual long-term result. Such transient dynamics are longer and more oscillatory for populations with heavier fishing, older ages at maturity, lower natural mortality rates, and lower larval connectivity.

Key areas of debate include uncertainty over nations’ abilities to enforce fishing bans across vast, remote regions and the intensity of human impacts before and after MPA implementation. We used a recently developed vessel tracking data set (produced using Automatic Identification System detections) to quantify the response of industrial fishing fleets to 5 of the largest MPAs established in the Pacific Ocean since 2013. After their implementation, all 5 MPAs successfully kept industrial fishing effort exceptionally low. Detected fishing effort was already low in 4 of the 5 large MPAs prior to MPA implementation, particularly relative to nearby regions that did not receive formal protection. Our results suggest that these large MPAs may present major conservation opportunities in relatively intact ecosystems with low immediate impact to industrial fisheries, but the large MPAs we considered often did not significantly reduce fishing effort because baseline fishing was typically low. It is yet to be determined how large MPAs may shape global ocean conservation in the future if the footprint of human influence continues to expand. Continued improvement in understanding of how large MPAs interact with industrial fisheries is a crucial step toward defining their role in global ocean management. © 2020 Society for Conservation Biology",,1571-1578,,6,34,,Conserv.

Meta-analyses indicate that most MPAs successfully meet the minimal goal of increasing biomass inside the MPA, while some do not, leaving open the important question of what makes MPAs successful. An oftenoverlooked aspect of this problem is that the success of fishery management outside MPA boundaries (i.e., whether a population is overfished) affects how well MPAs meet both conservation goals (e.g., increased biomass) and economic goals (e.g., minimal negative effects on fishery yield). Using a simple example of a system with homogeneous habitat and periodically spaced MPAs, we show that, as area in MPAs increases, (1) conservation value (biomass) may initially be zero, implying no benefit, then at some point increases monotonically; and (2) fishery yield may be zero, then increases monotonically to a maximum beyond which further increase in MPA area causes yield to decline. Importantly, the points at which these changes in slope occur vary among species and depend on management outside MPAs. Decision makers considering the effects of a potential system of MPAs on multiple species are confronted by a number of such cost-benefit curves, and it is usually impossible to maximize benefits and minimize costs for all species. Moreover, the precise shape of each curve is unknown due to uncertainty regarding the fishery status of each species. Here we describe a decision-analytic approach that incorporates existing information on fishery stock status to present decision makers with the range of likely outcomes of MPA. implementation. To summarize results from many species whose overfishing status is uncertain, our decisionanalysis approach involves weighted averages over both overfishing uncertainty and species. In an example from an MPA decision process in California, USA, an optimistic projection of future fishery management success led to recommendation of fewer and smaller MPAs than that derived from a more pessimistic projection of future management success. This example illustrates how information on fishery status can be used to project potential outcomes of MPA implementation within a decision analysis framework and highlights the need for better population information. © 2010 by tne Ecological society or America.",,1523-1541,,6,20,,Ecol.

According to the 2009 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, c. 21% of Indo-Australasian chondrichthyans are classified as threatened (critically endangered, endangered and vulnerable) and c. 40% are of conservation concern (threatened and near threatened). The proportion of threatened species is highest in New Guinea (c. 39%) and Indonesia (c. 35%) and least in New Zealand (c. 11%). In New Guinea, three quarters of the species are of conservation concern; in Indonesia, nearly two thirds are of conservation concern. Within the region, the proportion of threatened batoids (c. 29%) is higher than threatened sharks (c. 17%), while there are no threatened chimaeras. Conservation status is discussed at the order (for sharks), suborder (for batoids) and family level. Issues relating to the conservation status of chondrichthyans vary greatly between each subregion, but they mostly relate to targeted or incidental capture in fisheries. A handful of sharks and batoids are protected within Australian waters, while one species is protected in New Zealand. Both Australia and New Zealand have developed National Plans of Action for the Conservation and Management of Sharks (NPOA-Sharks), but these are lacking elsewhere. Development and implementation of NPOA-Sharks are a priority in order to drive the conservation of the regional fauna. Sustainable fisheries management (including by-catch), confronting the challenge of illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, species protection where appropriate and marine protected areas (MPA) are all likely to prove vital in ensuring the long-term conservation of Indo-Australasian sharks, batoids and chimaeras. © 2010 The Authors.

Most of these studies have focused on particular habitats and have generally been confined to a limited range of fish species associated with specific nursery areas. In this review we conduct a general assessment of the state of knowledge of coastal habitats in fulfilling the nursery-role concept for marine fishes, with particular emphasis on biotic and abiotic factors that influence nursery value. A primary aim was to synthesize information that can be used to drive sound conservation planning and provide a conceptual framework so that new marine protected areas (MPAs) incorporate the full range of nursery areas that are present within the coastal zone. We also use published data from a coastal section in the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa, to highlight the differential use of shallow aquatic habitats by a range of juvenile marine fish species within this region. Although the Eastern Cape case study does not assess the relative growth, food availability or predation in nursery and non-nursery areas within the coastal zone, it does document which habitats are important to the juveniles of dominant marine species within each area. These habitats, which range from intertidal pools, subtidal gulleys and surf zones to estuaries, do appear to perform a key role in the biological success of species assemblages, with the juveniles of particular marine fishes tending to favour specific nursery areas. According to a multivariate analysis of nursery habitat use within this region, marine species using estuaries tend to differ considerably from those using nearshore coastal waters, with a similar pattern likely to occur elsewhere in the world. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,49-59,,,160,,Estuar.

Failure to account for differences in productivity and spatio-temporal abundance patterns can lead to over-exploitation of depleted populations and/or loss of potential yield from healthy ones. Mixed-stock fisheries (where a stock may comprise one or more populations of reared or wild origin) harvest multiple stocks, often in unknown proportions, and lack of tools for estimation of stock-specific harvest rates can hamper status evaluations and attainment of management goals. We present a method for evaluating stock-specific impacts of alternative harvest strategies, using coastal trap net fisheries for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in the Baltic Sea as a case study. Our results demonstrate a large variation among stocks in coastal mixed fishery harvest rates, as well as large differences in harvest rates relative to stock-specific maximum sustainable yield (MSY) and recovery levels. Bayesian decision analysis showed that spatio-temporal management actions, such as delayed fishery opening and closed areas may be effective in improving probabilities of meeting management objectives for Baltic salmon. However, stocks did not respond uniformly to different management actions, highlighting the potential for trade-offs in reaching stock-specific targets that must be considered by managers.  © 2021 The Author(s).

Key factors for the success of voluntary measures included community support, cohesive user organizations, and good governance (i.e., leadership, financing, a perception of fairness).

The Inter-Oceanic Regional Authority (ARI) was established to allocate land use and encourage development within the region. ARI produced both general and regional plans that were adopted by the government as law in 1997. While Panama has created a model that tries to balance economic development and natural resource protection, the plans lack clarity and specificity about how the natural resource protection efforts will be implemented and evaluated. In particular, the plans should be specific about who will manage the newly protected areas and what the management goals for these areas will be. An evaluation mechanism must be established to determine if the plans are achieving these goals. Because ARFs plans are deficient in these areas, Panama will be significantly hindered or rendered unable to achieve its goal of natural resource protection within the Inter-Oceanic Region. There is still time before the land reversion occurs to remedy these problems. This can be done by increasing the specificity of the regional plan as it relates to protected areas. At the same time, evaluation procedures need to be established to examine both biophysical changes within the protected areas and the function of agencies involved with natural resource management in the Inter-Oceanic Region.

Case description: The main aim of this study was to determine the impact of quantification of patrol efforts on indicators of illegal hunting activities that occur in rainforest protected areas, as a result of monitoring patrol operations and modifying the original plan. The specific objectives were to determine the optimal patrol efforts necessary to reduce illegal wildlife use to minimal; and the influence of the rainfall and seasonal activities on illegal wildlife use. Discussion and Evaluation: The results indicated that as the patrol efforts increased the encounter with illegal wildlife use also increased until a certain point that the encounter rates started decreasing. Neither rainfall nor seasonal activities influenced the illegal activities and the patrol efforts. The protection staff of rainforest protected areas would work effectively to bring down illegal wildlife off-take to the barest minimum if monitored, quantified and provide feed-back. Conclusions: Illegal wildlife off-take can also be reduced by the protection staff if the original plans are made flexible to be adjusted.

More than 100 species are captured at depths of 50–500 m along shelves and seamounts using mostly droplines and bottom longlines. The main target species are Pristipomoides multidens, Pristipomoides filamentosus, Pristipomoides typus, Atrobucca brevis, Epinephelus areolatus, and Lutjanus malabaricus. The fleet in this fishery is predominantly unlicensed small-scale (1–10 gross ton) vessels. The fishery is unmanaged and lacks data that would allow policymakers to formulate sustainable management strategies. Here, we use fisheries-dependent data on catch composition, as well as fishing location and gear type, to determine factors that dictate catch composition and catches containing high proportions of immature fishes. Results indicate that immature fish assemblages are caught in particular locations, or “hotspots,” through a combination of fishing gear and habitat characteristics. The important “hotspots” occurred in the Java Sea-Makassar Strait area. Only 2.4% of marine protected areas (MPAs) were located within “hotspots.” Our findings highlight places of high conservation priority, such as the Java Sea, where expansion of current MPAs would greatly benefit the deep-slope demersal fishery in Indonesia by reducing immature catches, thus identifying a preexisting management that is appropriate for the sustainability of this fishery. The modeling methods we developed are transferable to other fisheries that lack data on fish abundance in order to prioritize management and conservation. © 2021 The Authors.

We explored the relative effectiveness of seasonal closures versus size-based landing restrictions using a four-season age-structured model. More than a third of adult thornback rays are currently removed by fishing each year, and without effective management, a further 90% decline within 30 years is likely. A three-season closure of the Thames Estuary was the shortest closure that ensured thornback ray recovery and minimal loss of fishery yield. Minimum and maximum landing size restrictions are nearly as effective at recovering thornback rays but less so at improving yield. While long seasonal closures and full marine protected areas are more effective at ensuring the recovery of thornback rays, length restrictions may be simpler to implement under the current institutional framework and may have less impact on the multispecies trawl fisheries operating in the area.",,722-733,,6,62,,,,,,,,,,English,,,,WOS:000291995600022,,,,,,,by-catch; COMMUNITY; discard; elasmobranch; GROWTH; length restrictions; management strategy evaluation; MARINE; marine reserve; MORTALITY; NURSERY AREAS; POPULATION-DYNAMICS; SHIFTS; SKATES; THREAT,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

One of the goals of the 2014 Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme is to identify the consequences of climate change for protected areas and to put in place adaptation or mitigation measures. As a contribution to the process, this paper develops a methodology to identify the relative level of risk to nationally and internationally important geological and geomorphological sites in Scotland from the impacts of climate change. The methodology is based on existing understanding of the likely responses of different types of geosite to specific aspects of climate change, such as changes in rainfall, rising sea levels or increased storminess, and is applied to assess the likelihood of damaging impacts on groups of similar geoheritage features in sites with similar characteristics. The results indicate that 80 (8.8%) of the ?900 nationally and internationally important geoheritage sites in Scotland are at ‘high’ risk from climate change. These include active soft-sediment coastal and fluvial features, finite Quaternary sediment exposures and landforms in coastal and river locations, active periglacial features, sites with palaeoenvironmental records, finite or restricted rock exposures and fossils. Using this risk-based assessment, development of indicative geoheritage climate-change actions have been prioritised for these sites. Depending on the characteristics of the sites, management options may range from ‘do nothing’ to rescue excavations and posterity recording. Monitoring is an essential part of the management process to trigger evidence-based interventions. © 2018 The Geologists' Association",,120-134,,2,129,,Proc. Geol.

Deer were initially taken to Guam in 1771 or 1772, followed by introductions on Rota in about 1880, Saipan in 1900, and Pohnpei probably in 1904 or 1905. Two failed attempts to create populations occurred on Pohnpei in 1880 and on Tinian, Mariana Islands, in the early 1960s, where animals survived until about 1980. Historic trends in extant C. mariannus populations have varied in relation to hunting intensity and the clearing of forested habitats. Currently, deer abundance appears to be expanding on Guam, and is stable or declining on Rota, Saipan, and Pohnpei. Population estimates are not available for any island, but numbers are probably largest on Guam, with the highest densities found on several military installations. Hunting occurs extensively on each island and is a major source of mortality. Regulated hunting seasons exist on Guam and Rota, while deer are fully protected on Saipan, however, considerable illegal hunting occurs on each island. Deer are not legally protected on Pohnpei. C. mariannus consumes a variety of native and introduced plants, including cultivated species. Damage to native ecosystems or crops has been reported on Guam, Rota, and Pohnpei during periods of high deer abundance. Browsing damage to native forests can be extensive, causing significant changes in forest structure and species composition. The objectives of current deer management programs in the Marianas are not compatible with the conservation of native ecosystems and recovery of endangered species.

Nevertheless, few researchers have quantitatively evaluated their efficacy. In 1998 industry, government agencies, and nongovernmental organizations established a voluntary conservation program for whale watching in the northeast region of the United States, with the intent to avoid collisions with and harassment of endangered whales by commercial and recreational whale-watching vessels. One important aspect of the program was the establishment of 3 speed zones within specific distances of whales. We wanted to determine the level of compliance with this aspect of the program to gauge its efficacy and gain insights into the effectiveness of voluntary measures as a conservation tool. Inconspicuous observers accompanied 46 commercial whale-watching trips from 12 companies in 2003 (n = 35) and 2004 (n = 11). During each trip, vessel position and speed were collected at 5-second intervals with a GPS receiver. Binoculars with internal laser rangefinders and digital compasses were used to record range and bearing to sighted whales. We mapped whale locations with ArcGIS. We created speed-zone buffers around sighted whales and overlaid them with vessel-track and speed data to evaluate compliance. Speeds in excess of those recommended by the program were considered noncompliant. We judged the magnitude of noncompliance by comparing a vessel's maximum speed within a zone to its maximum recorded trip speed. The level of noncompliance was high (mean 0.78; company range 0.74-0.88), some companies were more compliant than others (p = 0.02), noncompliance was significantly higher in zones farther from whales (p < 0.001), and operators approached the maximum speed capabilities of their vessel in all zones. The voluntary conservation program did not achieve the goal of substantially limiting vessel speed near whales.

Specifically, Target 11 aims to protect 10% of all seas by 2020. The percentage of the world's oceans that are protected has increased steadily in recent years, mainly due to very large marine protected areas (MPAs).The issue of making major gains in achieving protection targets through 'going big' has brought added scrutiny to the subject of MPAs. There is economy in scale, but several people have called into question whether going large will protect representative habitat and result in true protection, or whether it is merely a politically expedient way for some nations to attain targets by creating paper parks, while avoiding tough conservation decisions.The recent creation of large MPAs has greatly enhanced the chance of achieving global protection targets. Large areas typically contain several ecosystems and habitats that interact ecologically, and allow for more holistic conservation. The interactions between ecosystems in large MPAs occur without many of the problems associated with networks of smaller MPAs, where the connectivity between sites is often affected by human activities.The disadvantages of large MPAs include difficulties of surveillance, enforcement and monitoring of vast offshore areas, as well as high total costs. While the cost per unit area may be lower for large MPAs, conducting surveillance and monitoring in such vast areas requires much more expensive technologies.Large MPAs complement and add to existing management and conservation measures. Decision makers should consider designating them as one of a suite of possible protection measures. Besides greatly enhancing the chance of reaching agreed biodiversity targets, large MPAs improve the quality of conservation. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,24-30,,S2,24,,Aquatic Conserv. Mar.

However, the implementation of fences for conservation has outpaced scientific assessment of their effectiveness, non-target impacts, and long-term costs. We assessed landscape predictors of fence crossing sites and employed camera traps over a one-year period to investigate wildlife responses to a conservation fence around Lake Nakuru National Park, Kenya. Specifically, we measured the impact of the fence on wild mammal movement, and the temporal impacts of fence maintenance on wildlife crossings and behavior. Cameras captured more than 65,000 detections of animals approaching fences, with 3626 observed crossings over 2818 trap nights at 19 sites. Using these data, we developed a guide to classifying fence-specific mammal behaviors. Thirty-eight wild mammal species approached known weak points in the fence, and 27 species were recorded crossing the fence. No single environmental variable predicted detection or fence crossing points for all species, but seasonality, human activity, habitat visibility, and proximity to an adjacent protected area were each correlated with species-specific crossing locations. Additionally, breaches of repaired fence-crossing locations occurred within days of maintenance. We conclude that popular, ‘one-size-fits-all’, conservation fence designs may be ineffective and costly for restraining movement of many wildlife species. We recommend that those deploying conservation fences start with clearly articulated management goals, that fence maintenance be informed by taxa-specific tendencies to breach fences, and that managers consider the strategic creation of wildlife corridors, overpasses, or ungulate-proof fences to link fenced protected areas with surrounding habitat. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,256,,Biol.

These 14 Territories are under the sovereignty of the UK, a signatory of the CBD, and are particularly biodiverse. Eight Territories have protected areas covering 17% or more of their land, but the extent of protection across these Territories as a whole is low, with only 4.8% of this land designated as protected. This protection covered 51% of sites already identified as of conservation importance (Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas), although only 8% of the area of these sites was protected. The expansion of effective protection to meet the 17% target provides an opportunity to capture the most important sites for conservation. Locally led designation will require an improvement in knowledge of the distribution and density of species.

A total of 1979 morphologically defined species was discriminated in seven taxa across all samples: Demospongiae, Decapoda, corals (Octocorallia and Antipatharia), Mollusca, Echinodermata, Ascidiacea, and Pycnogonida. Collectively, 59% were estimated to be new or unnamed species. The distribution pattern of megafaunal communities, analysed with a suite of 17 physical covariates, was most influenced at large spatial scales (>100s km) by bottom temperature, oxygen concentration and latitude, whereas at smaller scales (10s of km), seabed type was most influential. Many covariates are driven by the same physical processes and are correlated (e.g. to depth or latitude), thus it is not possible to ascribe causal relationships to fauna distributions. However, their identification highlights the spatial scales that determine the composition of megafaunal communities. Regional-scale transitions in bottom temperature and oxygen concentration are determined by water masses and currents that interact with the south-western margin seabed in different ways depending on location. The nested, smaller-scale heterogeneity of seabed type, classified simply as 'hard' or 'soft' terrain, differentiates consolidated attachment sites for sessile fauna from sediments suited to mobile and burrowing fauna. Different physical factors affect the distribution of benthic fauna at different scales. Collectively, these patterns of heterogeneity can be represented in a hierarchical framework that consists of biogeographic provinces, biomes, biogeomorphic features, terrains, and finer scales. The Australian government is using a hierarchical approach to identify bioregions for management purposes; a key aim is to ensure that a National Representative System of Marine Protected Areas (NRSMPA) will meet the requirement of comprehensiveness, adequacy and representativeness. Important findings from this study are that the provincial structure of invertebrate megabenthos broadly aligns with the provincial structure derived earlier from the distribution of fishes, but there are differences in the distribution of individual major taxa at both provincial and megahabitat scales. Representative coverage of rarer taxa or narrowly distributed taxa might not be feasible at the same time as ensuring main fauna groups are adequately represented. The hierarchical scales of heterogeneity of the megabenthos in this area, the differences between taxa, and the high proportion of apparently rare species make it clear that it will be as important to manage the area outside the NRSMPA as to manage the NRSMPA itself. Management will be required at different scales that correspond to the multiscale spatial heterogeneity of continental margin fauna. © 2010 Blackwell Verlag GmbH.",,222-236,,1,31,,Mar.

In this hierarchy, geomorphic units, individual or aggregations of seabed geomorphic features, are the finest scale used in the design process. We evaluated the interaction between two hierarchical levels (depth and geomorphic features), using video survey data on seamounts and submarine canyons. False within-class homogeneity indicated that depth, size, complexity, configuration, and anthropogenic impact need to be added as modifiers to allow geomorphic features to act as surrogates for biodiversity distribution. A consequence of using unmodified geomorphic surrogates, and of not correctly nesting geomorphic features within depth, is the diminished recognition of the importance and comparative rarity of megafaunal biodiversity of the continental margin (<1500-m depths). We call this area the zone of importance, because it is where targeted marine impacts coincide with the greatest megafaunal biodiversity. Refining the geomorphic classification is desirable for future biodiversity characterization, but an alternative approach is to define patterns in biodiversity and abiotic variables jointly, and to utilize finer scale information and provide a classification that preserves the maximum information of both datasets. © 2008 The Author(s).",,214-224,,,66,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: ICES J.

Commercial power hand-line fishing was permitted to continue on productive seamount fishing grounds within the reserve because new information enabled boundaries and zoning proposed in the reserve's draft Management Plan to be revised and consistent fisheries regulations to be formulated. The draft plan would have removed access to fishing grounds that provide approximately 25% of the annual regional Australian total allowable catch of the premium fishery species, Blue-eye Trevalla (Hyperoglyphe antarctica). Day-time power handline fishing in 280–550 m depths on Taupo and Barcoo Seamounts avoided Harrisson's Dogfish (Centrophorus harrissoni) – the primary species of conservation concern – because the shark is a diel vertical migrator, residing deeper than Blue-eye during the day before ascending to shallower depths at night to feed on micronekton. Harrisson's Dogfish occurs on several other seamounts where it was previously unrecorded. These results, together with expectation of low mortality of any incidental dogfish bycatch and low impacts on benthic habitats, supported changes to management arrangements which preserve the seamount Blue-eye fishery worth approximately A$1M annually whilst protecting more seamounts and greater areas of benthic habitat in the restricted 200–700 m depth range. Research uptake was facilitated by clarifying policy options at a critical stage in the planning process. This required having clearly articulated management objectives that aligned conservation and fishery imperatives, involving knowledgeable fishers in making robust field observations to address specific knowledge gaps and management needs, and identifying the requirements for ongoing fishery monitoring that addresses remaining management uncertainties. This potential to identify win-win outcomes in the Australian marine planning process provides some general signposts for future policy decisions as marine reserve networks are implemented and reviewed, and for scientists wanting to effectively engage in decision-making processes. © 2016",,617-624,,,183,,Fish.

Using data taken from the state of Hawaii's long-term reef monitoring program, we have assessed the effects of more than 2 decades of rotational management on fish stocks at the Waikiki-Diamond Head Fishery Management Area (FMA) on Oahu, Hawaii. Fish biomass tended to increase during the 1 to 2 yr closure periods, but the scale of these increases was insufficient to compensate for declines during open periods. The net effect was that, between 1978 and 2002, total biomass declined by around two-thirds. Coincident with this decline was the virtual disappearance of large fishes (>40 cm) of fishery-target groups: acanthurids, scarids and mullids. Such fishes, although initially common, were only rarely recorded in surveys after 1990. In 1988, a portion of the FMA was converted into the permanently closed Waikiki Marine Life Conservation District (MLCD). Assessment of the relative effectiveness of permanent and rotational closure is complicated by declines in habitat quality, particularly within the MLCD, caused by overgrowth of much of the reef by the alien algae Gracilaria salicornia, which began in the early 1990s. However, the initial effect of full closure was a reversal of the previous downward trend in fish biomass, and, even in the post habitat-decline period, biomass of target species within the MLCD has been nearly twice as high as in the FMA. Additionally, there have been no declines or even downward trends in maximum size of target families in the MLCD. Overall, rotational management, as implemented at the Waikiki FMA, has not been an effective means of conserving fish stocks or revitalizing public fishing grounds. © Inter-Research 2006.",,139-149,,,310,,Mar.

However, camera-trap studies are seldom executed at a broad spatial scale. We demonstrate how uniting fine-scale studies and utilizing camera-trap data of non-target species is an effective approach for broadscale assessments through a case study of the brown hyaena Parahyaena brunnea. We collated camera-trap data from 25 protected and unprotected sites across South Africa into the largest detection/non-detection dataset collected on the brown hyaena, and investigated the influence of biological and anthropogenic factors on brown hyaena occupancy. Spatial autocorrelation had a significant effect on the data, and was corrected using a Bayesian Gibbs sampler. We show that brown hyaena occupancy is driven by specific co-occurring apex predator species and human disturbance. The relative abundance of spotted hyaenas Crocuta crocuta and people on foot had a negative effect on brown hyaena occupancy, whereas the relative abundance of leopards Panthera pardus and vehicles had a positive influence. We estimated that brown hyaenas occur across 66% of the surveyed camera-trap station sites. Occupancy varied geographically, with lower estimates in eastern and southern South Africa. Our findings suggest that brown hyaena conservation is dependent upon a multi-species approach focussed on implementing conservation policies that better facilitate coexistence between people and hyaenas. We also validate the conservation value of pooling fine-scale datasets and utilizing bycatch data to examine species trends at broad spatial scales. Copyright © The Author(s), 2020.

Disturbance from boat traffic has been identified as a conservation concern for this population. The primary aims of the study were to test whether boat presence altered whales' activities, and if so, to estimate whether behavioural responses were likely to have carried energetic costs. A land-based observation site near a vessel-exclusion marine protected area allowed us to conduct a natural experiment to monitor whale activities in the presence and absence of boats. Using Time-Discrete Markov Chain models, boat presence was linked to significant changes in the probability that focal whales would switch from one activity state to another, which led to significantly different activity budgets in the presence and absence of boats. We estimated that the energetic cost of meeting these budgets differed by only 3-4%. In the presence of boats, however, whales reduced their time spent feeding and the time spent rubbing their bodies on smooth pebble beaches. These lost feeding opportunities could have resulted in a substantial (18%) estimated decrease in energy intake. Our sensitivity analysis provides preliminary evidence that disturbance could carry higher costs to killer whales in terms of reducing energy acquisition than increasing energetic demand, and future research should address this directly. Meanwhile, our observations suggest that protected areas would confer greatest conservation benefit to endangered killer whale populations if they were designed to protect important foraging areas. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

One promising strategy is to use the principles of systematic conservation planning to identify important areas for the conservation of biodiversity. In this chapter we use information on the vulnerability of native forest to threatening processes and information on the distribution of forest types to systematically determine priorities for biodiversity conservation in the temperate forest region of south-central Chile. We find that the existing reserve network covers approximately 12% of the study region, and that only 53% of the area of native forest estimated to be present before European settlement remained in 1997. Temperate forest is now largely restricted to the upper elevations of the Andean and coastal ranges, within a matrix of pasture, agriculture and plantations. We develop a model of the conversion of native forest to plantations and predict conversion to be more likely in warm and low rainfall areas that are close to towns and roads and on red clay and mixed alluvial soils. We argue that the priority areas for conservation should be currently unprotected areas that are vulnerable to plantation conversion and that, if lost or degraded, will result in conservation targets being compromised. We find the Evergreen forest type to be a priority for conservation owing to its lack of representation in the existing reserve network and the degree to which it has been cleared. By focusing our conservation efforts on areas with the greatest conservation value and the highest likelihood of losing significant portions of this value, we will be able to achieve maximum impact for conservation investments in south-central Chile. © CAB International 2007.",,314-334,,,,,,,,,,,CABI Publishing,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Biodiversity Loss and Conserv. in Fragmented Forest Landscapes: The Forests of Montane Mex. and Temperate South Am.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The programme is being implemented in two phases. The first phase has involved AR deployment in recently established marine parks. The second phase will involve the establishment of FPA selected specifically for their suitability for AR deployment and fisheries restoration. Prior to site selection, a comprehensive two-stage consultation exercise was conducted, which targeted fishers, marine users and green groups. Ecosystem simulations were employed to assess the potential benefits to fisheries arising from the implementation of the second phase. Modelling results indicate that AR deployment, utilizing 10-20% of local waters managed predominantly as no-take zones, could arrest the current decline in fisheries yield and produce significant improvements within ten years. Limited selective fishing may be authorized at a small number of AR to encourage support from local fishers and facilitate enforcement. Successful implementation must involve a high level of fishing compliance within the 'no-take' zones. Management should be facilitated by establishing community-based advisory groups for each FPA that will comprise representatives from fishers, government and academics.

Here we review the state of knowledge for adapting existing and future MPAs to climate change and synthesize case studies (n = 27) of how marine conservation planning can respond to shifting environmental conditions. First, we derive a generalized conservation planning framework based on five published frameworks that incorporate climate change adaptation to inform MPA design. We then summarize examples from the scientific literature to assess how conservation goals were defined, vulnerability assessments performed and adaptation strategies incorporated into the design and management of existing or new MPAs. Our analysis revealed that 82% of real-world examples of climate change adaptation in MPA planning derive from tropical reefs, highlighting the need for research in other ecosystems and habitat types. We found contrasting recommendations for adaptation strategies at the planning stage, either focusing only on climate refugia, or aiming for representative protection of areas encompassing the full range of expected climate change impacts. Recommendations for MPA management were more unified and focused on adaptative management approaches. Lastly, we evaluate common barriers to adopting climate change adaptation strategies based on reviewing studies which conducted interviews with MPA managers and other conservation practitioners. This highlights a lack of scientific studies evaluating different adaptation strategies and shortcomings in current governance structures as two major barriers, and we discuss how these could be overcome. Our review provides a comprehensive synthesis of planning frameworks, case studies, adaptation strategies and management actions which can inform a more coordinated global effort to adapt existing and future MPA networks to continued climate change. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,3251-3267,,6,26,,Global Change Biol.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,acclimatization; Acclimatization; adaptive management; biodiversity; Biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION; biodiversity protection; CHANGE CHALLENGES; climate change; Climate Change; climate effect; connectivity; CONNECTIVITY; Conservation of Natural Resources; conservation planning; CORAL-REEFS; ecosystem; Ecosystem; ECOSYSTEM SERVICES; environmental conditions; environmental planning; environmental protection; INTEGRATING CLIMATE; MANAGEMENT; marine park; marine protected area network; marine reserve; OCEAN; refugium; Refugium; RESERVES; systematic conservation planning; vulnerability; VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENTS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The objective of this study is to systematically document the extent to which Indigenous governance concepts are incorporated into the climate governance literature. Using a systematic scoping search and screening process, we identified 195 references. To be included, references had to be published between 2010 and 2020, in English, explicitly mention Indigenous peoples, have a substantial focus on human responses to experienced or anticipated effects of climate change and governance, and be based on primary data or a review of primary data. Relevant references were analyzed using a data extraction questionnaire. Our results indicate that despite the growing number of publications, only two-fifths fully incorporated Indigenous governance concepts. We found that Indigenous governance concepts were more likely to be incorporated in references that included an author affiliated with an Indigenous organization, used qualitative methods, and focused on protected areas or climate transformation. Finally, most references incorporated Indigenous Knowledge systems, but this did not correspond to greater attention to Indigenous governance. Based on our findings, we make three recommendations for the climate governance literature: (i) follow Indigenous research protocols, (ii) move beyond a narrow focus on the “supplemental value” of Indigenous Knowledge systems to acknowledge the “governance value,” and (iii) engage with transformational climate responses that address the systemic inequalities created by historical and ongoing colonialism. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V.",,,,03-Apr,171,,Clim.

Net transfer of inorganic carbon helps define their chemical characteristics and determines their unique benthic flora. Nutrient enrichment weakens the biogeochemical buffering mechanisms which help maintain a clear-water state and many small, shallow marl lakes are prone to siltation. Despite hydrological processes being recognised as important for the complex interactions between plants, nutrient availability and physical sediment properties which shape marl lake ecology, groundwater discharge to many of these lakes has never been quantified. The aim of this study was to locate and quantify groundwater transfers to degraded marl lakes in a Special Area of Conservation on the island of Ireland. A RAD7 radon detector identified and measured elevated concentrations of 222Rn in three lakes for quantifying their groundwater influx with a 222Rn mass-balance equation. Conservative estimates of mean daily groundwater discharge to Kilroosky Lough, Drumacrittin Lough, and Dummy's Lough were 143 m3, 502 m3, and 269 m3 respectively. With extrapolation to the entire hydrological year, annual groundwater recharge contributed approximately 47 %, 155 %, and 50 % of the respective lake volumes. The areas within the lakes which were found to have the highest groundwater influence also closely matched the locations where substantial charophyte communities persist suggesting that the two are linked. These findings underline the importance of groundwater transfers for the water budget in small marl lakes and will inform management efforts to mitigate their eutrophication. © 2024 The Authors",,,,,954,,Sci.

If allocated strategically, these resources could simultaneously contribute to other conservation initiatives. In this study, we use novel distribution maps to show how those resources could aid planning for the recovery of threatened resident vertebrates. Using eBird-based relative abundance estimates, we first identified areas with high richness of Neotropical migrant landbirds of conservation concern (23 species) during the stationary non-breeding period. Within these areas, we then identified threatened species richness, projected forest loss and conducted a prioritization for 1,261 red-listed vertebrates using Terrestrial Area-of-Habitat maps. Richness for migrants was greatest along a corridor from the Yucatan peninsula south to the northern Andes but also included south-west Mexico and Hispaniola. Protected areas account for 22% of this region while 21% is at risk of forest loss. Within this focal region for migrants, all four vertebrate groups showed hotspots of threatened species richness along the west and east Andean slopes. Taxa-specific hotspots included montane areas of southern Mexico and central Guatemala (amphibians/reptiles) and the entire east slope of the Colombian East Andes (mammals). Our prioritization highlighted several areas of importance for conservation due to high threatened species richness and projected forest loss including (a) the Pacific dry forests of south-west Mexico, (b) montane regions of northern Central America and (c) the west Andean slope of Colombia and Ecuador. At a landscape scale in southern Colombia, we show how conservation efforts for six Neotropical migrants could benefit 56 threatened residents that share a similar elevational range. Synthesis and applications. Funding and effort for migratory bird conservation also has potential to benefit threatened resident vertebrates in the Neotropics. Our study highlights how novel, high-resolution information on species distributions and risk of forest loss can be integrated to identify priority areas for the two groups at regional and landscape scales.

The independent effects of these drivers are well documented, but the relative importance and interaction between fishing and habitat shifts is poorly understood, particularly in complex systems such as coral reefs. To assess the combined and relative effects of fishing and habitat we examined the composition of fish communities on patch reefs across a gradient of high to low structural complexity in fished and unfished areas of the Ningaloo Marine Park, Western Australia. Biomass and species richness of fish were positively correlated with structural complexity of reefs and negatively related to macroalgal cover. Total abundance of fish was also positively related to structural complexity, however this relationship was stronger on fished reefs than those where fishing is prohibited. The interaction between habitat condition and fishing pressure is primarily due to the high abundance of small bodied planktivorous fish on fished reefs. However, the influence of management zones on the abundance and biomass of predators and target species is small, implying spatial differences in fishing pressure are low and unlikely to be driving this interaction. Our results emphasise the importance of habitat in structuring reef fish communities on coral reefs especially when gradients in fishing pressure are low. The influence of fishing effort on this relationship may however become more important as fishing pressure increases. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,01-Nov,,,81,,Mar. Environ.

Estuarine tidal flats are speciose and provide vital ecosystem services but are largely neglected in MPA research. Here, the ecological effect of an MPA on an estuarine tidal flat was determined by quantifying patterns in macroinvertebrate assemblages and sediment variables over a 3 yr period: 1 yr prior to and 2 yr following MPA zoning. An asymmetrical beyond BACI (before after control impact) design was used with 1 protected and 2 reference tidal flats. Following the exclusion of humans targeting callianasid crustaceans for bait, significant changes in the assemblages were observed in the no-take zone compared to reference locations. These shifts were maintained for the 2 yr of sampling following zoning. Relatively immobile, suspension- and deposit-feeding species increased up to 6-fold in abundance, especially juvenile bivalves (e.g. Eumarcia fumigata and Soletellina alba) and small polychaetes. In contrast, there was a reduction in some of the highly mobile, predatory and scavenging species (e.g. the amphipod Urohaustorius metungi and the polychaete Sigalion ovigerum). We observed an increase in spatial homogeneity in the assemblage as well as increases in the silt and clay content at the protected flat, while patchiness was maintained at the reference sites. Importantly, these results add to the growing body of evidence that MPAs also significantly affect non-target fauna and produce shifts in beta-diversity. Our findings imply that MPAs are an effective tool for conservation management. © Inter-Research 2014.",,171-180,,,517,,Mar. Ecol. Prog.

Biosphere Reserves designated before 1995 were mandated to shift their focus adequately. Pre-1995 Biosphere Reserves provide unique case studies to examine how a conceptual shift in conservation can be implemented in practice. I focus on three areas in (West) Germany (Bayerischer Wald, Berchtesgadener Land, Niedersächsisches Wattenmeer) that underwent this shift to explore implementation challenges and resulting outcomes. I find that political and administrative decision-makers reacted differently: one area withdrew, one extended its area, and one is still working on an implementation of the shift. Top-down processes of designation and objective setting, the overlaps between other conservation designations and the Biosphere Reserves, and the exclusion of local people have created challenges for the legitimacy of the Biosphere Reserves because they miss broader societal support. Clear objectives and distinctions to other conservation schemes, adequate human and financial resources, and political (local) support are important aspects to implement a conceptual shift. Researchers can support the implementation by allocating space in their theories and concepts for the integration of different knowledge types and context-specific adaptions. © 2019, © 2019 The Author(s).

We use Net-Map, a participatory social network method, to explore the types of relationships and influence that stakeholders perceive and the extent to which the landscape could serve as an operational unit for governance. We find various stakeholder groups on the peninsula, with agricultural groups and municipalities perceived as having the most influence and being the best connected. We identify five types of relationships (formal, institutionalized, informal, sporadic, none) and four kinds of influence (legal, political, land, financial). Additionally, the landscape has cultural importance that could foster stewardship.

Many proposed MPAs become stalled in the implementation process, highlighting the need for further research into the processes leading to non-implementation. This paper focuses on two proposed MPAs in The Bahamas undergoing protected area enclosure: one highly controversial MPA in North Bimini that was proposed in 2000, but with an uncertain future; and a second enclosure in Andros Island initiated in 2002 and enlarged in 2009 after years of outreach and assessment. Although both locations seek to protect an area of shallow seas within The Bahamas archipelago, each area is significantly different in its management goals as well as social and institutional frameworks. A comparison of the two MPAs underscores the challenges in implementing changes in marine governance while illustrating opportunities for adaptive social learning in resource management processes. There are three goals to this analysis: (1) to explore the processes leading to non-implementation of proposed MPAs; (2) to identify some conditions for success and failure of MPAs within The Bahamian context; and (3) to search for evidence of individual and institutional learning in how conservation agents have approached the later Andros MPA. Research suggests that while there may be ample opportunity to learn from failed conservation attempts, individual and institutional constraints inhibit successful conservation planning frequently leading to non-implementation. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",,111-118,,,46,,Mar.

Managers confront the classic dilemma of protecting ecological integrity and providing enriching experiences. They concomitantly face the imperative for sustainability—contemporarily characterized by complexity, uncertainty, conflict, and change. Heightened levels of visitation are cause for immense concerns due to adverse impacts to the environment as well as visitor experiences. COVID-19 exacerbates these challenges as heightened levels of visitation are occurring, while managers simultaneously face decreases in conservation funding, and restrictions on protected area operations. Participatory monitoring and evaluation (PM&E) is an emerging in- novation to collaboratively address social-ecological challenges, such as issues associated with trail use. This re- search is concerned with exploring the influences of engaging in a PM&E pro- cess on stakeholder perceptions of key performance indicators (KPIs) for trails. This study compares stakeholder perceptions of KPIs for trails before and after a PM&E workshop at the Niagara Glen Nature Reserve in Ontario, Canada. Results show that PM&E can facilitate consensus among stakeholders regarding the overall goals of management and associated KPIs for environmental management planning. Stakeholders were shown to experience a real change in their perceptions of KPIs. The PM&E process studied show that participants became more conscious of the wider social realities as well as their perceptions of trail management. The study has important implications for managers concerned with trails and sustainability, including building consensus among key stakeholders to reach management goals, enhancing localized decision making, and building capacity for management towards sustainability. Trails, as well as the wider community can ultimately benefit from participatory approaches to environmental management. Consensus-building through PM&E works to enhance decisions that account for a diversity of perspectives. Stakeholder participation in trail management increases the likelihood that local needs and priorities are met, while allowing stakeholders to build capacity and learn to effectively manage their environments. Further-more, positive perceptions from being meaningfully involved in PM&E can ensure the support of constituents, which is imperative for the long-term success of management planning. © 2022, Sagamore Publishing LLC.

The goals of this study were to: a) calculate potential renewable energy production in the north of the Yucatan Peninsula; b) understand the perception of the local inhabitants towards the installation and operation of ocean energy devices and c) estimate the potential environmental impacts in the Río Lagartos Biosphere Reserve, considering keystone or unique/endemic species. Our results indicate that energy harvesting through salinity gradient would be the most feasible among renewable energy production alternatives that would reduce emissions of CO2 into the atmosphere thus helping mitigate global warming. The maximum recorded salinity was 90 psu, in February and April, which would provide 1.39 kWh/m3. This would not be sufficient to fully meet the local demands for electricity. Our findings show that the local people are not well informed regarding renewable energies. They appreciate their natural environment and would be very reluctant to see drastic changes in their surroundings. Finally, if saline gradient energy production were to be implemented here, the changes in the gradient and hydrosedimentary flows would probably induce undesirable alterations to the natural ecosystems: (mangroves), food webs (plankton), and threatened species (flamingos and horseshoe crabs). In conclusion, our findings indicate that salinity gradient energy production is unlikely to be viable in the Ria Lagartos Biosphere Reserve mostly because of the reluctance of local inhabitants to changes in their environment and the potential environmental impacts. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.",,,,,776,,Sci.

Seabird conservation planning within the seabird-diverse California Current System (CCS) marine ecoregion presents an important opportunity for transboundary collaborations to better protect seabirds across the USA/México border. While seabird populations in the USA are relatively well-studied and well-protected, the status of seabird populations in the Mexican region of the CCS is not well known and seabird colonies have been virtually unprotected. This study synthesizes and supplements information on breeding seabird diversity and distribution, identifies and ranks threats to seabirds and evaluates conservation capacity in the Mexican CCS to provide a framework for transboundary seabird conservation throughout the CCS ecoregion. Island-breeding seabirds in México support 43-57% of CCS breeding individuals, 59% of CCS breeding taxa and a high level of endemism. Connectivity between populations in México and the USA is high. At least 17 of the 22 extant Mexican CCS breeding seabirds are USA/México transboundary breeders or foragers, 13 of which are federally listed in the USA or México. Introduced predators and human disturbance have caused multiple seabird population extirpations in the Mexican CCS because breeding colonies lack legal protection or enforcement. However, conservation capacity in this region has increased rapidly in recent years through the establishment of new protected areas, growth of local conservation non-governmental organizations, and increase in local community support, all of which will allow for more effective use of conservation funds. Transboundary conservation coordination would better protect CCS seabirds by facilitating restoration of seabird colonies in the Mexican CCS and enabling an ecoregion-wide prioritization of seabird conservation targets to direct funding bodies to the most cost-effective investments. © 2006 Foundation for Environmental Conservation.",,294-305,,4,33,,Environ.

Subsequent to the passing of the Marine Reserves Act (1971), New Zealand led the world in protection of the marine environment with an area of non-extraction at Goat Island, Leigh. During the intervening years, no additional mainland marine reserves were created until the designation of Cathedral Cove marine reserve in 1993. The present study examined the nature of community reactions to marine reserve proposals. Beliefs, attitudes and knowledge regarding marine reserves were explored and related to the stance of the respondent (i.e. supporting or opposing a proposal for a marine reserve in their vicinity). Sample populations of 200 rate-payers from four target areas (two high-impact and two low-impact control areas) participated in a questionnaire study. Results confirmed the hypotheses that the establishment of marine reserves would be supported by the majority of respondents, dependent on the implementation of comprehensive social and environmental impact assessments, resulting in the identification of appropriate sites. Public involvement in the planning process, concomitant with information, communication and compromise were identified as strategies for reducing intergroup conflict.

The archipelago represents the top of eroded volcanoes that surfaced the ocean 4-5 million years ago, but with a geological history of more than 10-15 million years (Christie et al. 1992; Mitchell and Reading 1969). Different ocean currents and water masses converge around the archipelago, providing a unique and complex oceanographic setting. This is reflected in characteristic coastal biogeographic zones, a rich diversity of habitats, and a flora and fauna with an exceptionally high percentage of endemics both on land and in the sea (Edgar et al. 2004). Over 95% of its original species composition remains extant (Watkins and Cruz 2007), mostly due to the late arrival of humans and to the archipelago’s inhospitable conditions, which discouraged rapid population expansion in early colonization days. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Biosphere Reserve, it is of exceptional value as the most ecologically intact large, complex, and diverse oceanic archipelago remaining today. The open waters surrounding Galápagos were subjected to heavy industrial fishery from the 1930s onwards. The main target species were tuna, with catches that ranged from 412 tonnes in 1933 to more than 23, 00 tonnes in 1940 (Shimada and Schaefer 1956), but also many bait species, like sardines and salemas, were heavily exploited (IATTC 1956, 1960, 1961, 1963). During the period 1995-1997, about 16 industrial fishing boats were operating and catching around 40, 000 tonnes of yellowfin, bigeye, and skipjack tuna (Bustamante 1999). Industrial fishing was banned in 1998 with the declaratory of the Special Law for Galápagos (SLG) and the creation of the Galápagos Marine Reserve (GMR). This law allows only artisanal fishing with locally based, small boats and simple gear. Since then, fin fish catches have decreased greatly in the GMR to a few tens of tonnes annually. In the first years following the SLG, local fishermen were mainly exploiting benthic lobsters and sea cucumbers to lucrative export markets. However, owing to the current overexploited state of these benthic fisheries (Hearn 2008; Castrejón 2008), fin fishery is regaining importance in the GMR and fishermen are strongly interested in its further development. At the moment the artisanal pelagic fishery targets mainly yellowfin tuna and wahoo using mainly speed pulled hand lines, as well as oceanic hand lines with several hooks at their ends (Peńaherrera, 2007). Fixed Fish Attracting Devices (FADs) are experimentally used to aggregate large pelagic fish near the shore to enable higher catch rates. Long lines were also suggested as an alternative to enhance catch rates (after their use was banned in 1998), but records from “experimental fishing” performed inside the GMR revealed a high by-catch of sharks and sea turtles that served as a basis for its final prohibition (Murillo et al. 2004). Over the last decades, management in the GMR has mainly been focused on the benthic target species with emphasis on population monitoring and singlespecies stock assessments (Coello 1989; Granda 1995; Nicolaides et al. 2002). Recently, the other fisheries within the GMR were described by Peńaherrera (2007) and Castrejón (2008), clearly showing the great need for further assessment. An ecosystem approach to fisheries management in the GMR has been advocated by the Charles Darwin Foundation (CDF) and the Galápagos National Park for some time (PNG 2005), to consider the trophic interrelations between the fishery resources and the other ecosystem compartments and to explicitly incorporate the effects of fisheries exploitation on the system. A first step into this direction was a risk assessment of the demersal fishery, conducted by Peńaherrera and Hearn (2008). The complex and large open ocean ecosystem of the GMR is part of the Eastern Tropical Pacific (ETP), which contains some of the most productive waters of the world’s oceans (Barber and Chavez 1986). The top levels of the pelagic food web comprise several toothed and baleen whales, dolphins, large tunas, sharks, billfishes, and other species. Outside the GMR, many of these predators are still targeted by, or are by-catches of large international fisheries. Data from these fisheries are the principal sources of information about the pelagic ecosystem and provided the basis for modeling the trophic interactions of the large ETP ecosystem (Olson and Watters 2003). The objectives of this chapter are to: (1) construct a trophic model of the state of the GMR Pelagic Ecosystem during the decade of 1990s prior to the banning of the industrial fishery in 1998 in order to (a) identify the main functional groups of the GMR and their biological elements and to integrate the available ecological and fishing information of this system, (b) provide an integrated holistic description of the energy flows among the different groups identified, (c) to compare statistics of the flow structure of the GMR with those of other tropical systems to identify the particularities of the GMR, and (d) to identify keystone groups of the system and to explore their relative impact on the system; (2) use catch reports from the time prior to 1998 and thereafter to simulate ecosystem changes following the substantial changes from an industrial fishery for large pelagic fish to an exclusive artisanal small-scale multi-species fishery after 1998; (3) use published data on the decrease in primary production in the GMR during the strong El Nińo event 1997-1998 to simulate ecosystem response to these changes and to compare simulated changes with observed population changes during this event reported in the literature (i.e. Valle et al. 1987). We hypothesized that 12 years of banning of industrial fishing in the GMR should have induced visible changes to the ecosystem trophic structure, especially when an El Nińo warming event hit GMR immediately after its closure to industrial fisheries. Top predatory groups (like sharks, tuna, and other pelagic fish) and most of their prey species are largely protected and should be more abundant than elsewhere in the ETP, where heavy industrial fishing is still going on. © 2012 selection and editorial material, Matthias Wolff and Mark Gardener; individual chapters, the contributors.",,199-227,,,,,,,,,,,Taylor and Francis,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: The Role of Science for Conservation DOI: 10.4324/9780203126790-21,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

In Benin, the national remote sensing agency is improving management of terrestrial and coastal forests, especially mangroves; they are also improving techniques for land use mapping and fire monitoring. Also in Benin, an innovative start up company called Green Keeper Africa works to reduce the harm of the invasive water hyacinth plant by harvesting the plant and using it to manufacture ecofriendly systems to clean oil-based industrial pollution. This paper describes a project funded by the Ecological Forecasting program element of the NASA Applied Sciences Program within the Earth Sciences Division as part of a solicitation that specifically targets projects supporting Goal 14 (Life below Water) and Goal 15 (Life on Land) of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The project brings together scientists and application developers from academia, government and industry in three countries to design systems based on priorities expressed by project contributors in Ghana and Benin. Ghana and Benin are part of a similar ecosystem - low-lying regions with inter-connected brackish coastal lagoon ecosystems and freshwater lakes. Inland areas in Ghana were once covered by dense tropical forest that has now been mostly fragmented, while Benin was primarily a dense woodland. Most of primary forested areas are now only found in protected areas. This project pursues the following objectives and methodologies aligned with Goal 15 of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable development. In support of Indicator 15.1.1 (Forest area as a proportion of total land area), the project generates 20-30 m resolution country wide maps of vegetated areas including forest, mangroves, grasslands, savannahs, coastal and freshwater wetlands and floating vegetation using Landsat, Sentinel 1 and 2 and high-resolution data from commercial sources. In response to Indicator 15.2.1 (Progress towards sustainable forest management), the project maps illegal gold mine location and expansion, especially in Western Ghana using Landsat and Sentinel 1 and 2 datasets. In support of Indicator 15.8.1 on invasive species, the project builds an environmental monitoring system for use by the entrepreneurial Beninese company that uses data from satellites, airborne earth observation and in-situ water sensors to collect and synthesize data that helps monitor the behaviour of the invasive water hyacinth.

However, they may also provide motivation for conservation action. However, no such targets have yet been met, and the health of the marine environment has continued to deteriorate. The Tenth Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) recently adopted a new marine protection target, in October, 2010. As such, it is timely to critically assess the potential role of this and other global marine protection targets in conservation and marine resource management. Three targets adopted in the past ten years were assessed using the SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, and Timebound) framework. This assessment showed that the targets appear to have evolved to have become 'SMARTer' over time, particularly more Specific. The most recent CBD target also appears to be more Achievable than earlier targets. Three broad issues emerged that can inform the potential role, limitations, and challenges associated with global-scale marine protection targets: (i) that SMART target formulation, implementation, monitoring, and revision, is critically underpinned by relevant data and information; (ii) that perceived irrelevance of global targets may be at least partly due to a mismatch between the scale at which the targets were intended to operate, and the scale at which they have sometimes been assessed; and (iii) the primary role of global-scale targets may indeed be psychological rather than ecological. Recent progress indicates some success in this role, which could be built on with further 'SMARTening' of targets. © 2011 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.",,525-535,,4,47,,Environ.

However, marine conservation initiatives are perceived as uncoordinated at most levels of planning and decision-making. These initiatives also face the challenge of being in conflict with ongoing drives for sustained or increased resource extraction. Hence, there is an urgent need to develop large scale theoretical frameworks that explicitly address conflicting objectives that are embedded in the design and development of a global MPA network. Further, the frameworks must be able to guide the implementation of smaller scale initiatives within this global context. This research examines the applicability of an integrated spatial decision support framework based on geographic information systems (GIS), multicriteria evaluation (MCE) and fuzzy sets to objectively identify priority locations for future marine protection. MCE is a well-established optimisation method used extensively in land use resource allocation and decision support, and which has to date been underutilised in marine planning despite its potential to guide such efforts. The framework presented here was implemented in the Pacific Canadian Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) using two conflicting objectives - biodiversity conservation and fisheries profit-maximisation. The results indicate that the GIS-based MCE framework supports the objective identification of priority locations for future marine protection. This is achieved by integrating multi-source spatial data, facilitating the simultaneous combination of multiple objectives, explicitly including stakeholder preferences in the decisions, and providing visualisation capabilities to better understand how global MPA networks might be developed under conditions of uncertainty and complexity. © 2006 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.",,2539-2558,,9,16,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,ALGORITHMS; AREAS; biodiversity; BIODIVERSITY; CANADA; CONSERVATION; conservation planning; decision making; decision support system; DIVERSITY; ecosystem management; FISHERIES; fuzzy mathematics; fuzzy sets; Fuzzy sets; GIS; HOTSPOTS; ISSUES; land use; marine park; marine protected areas; Marine protected areas; multicriteria analysis; multicriteria evaluation; Multicriteria evaluation; multiple objectives; Multiple objectives; protected area siting; Protected area siting; reserve design; RESERVES; resource allocation; spatial analysis; Spatial analysis; spatial decision support; Spatial decision support,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, these targets were adopted without prior assessment of their achievability. Moreover, ability to monitor progress towards such targets has been constrained by a lack of robust data on marine protected areas. Here we present the results of the first explicitly marine-focused, global assessment of protected areas in relation to global marine protection targets. Approximately 2.35 million km2, 0.65% of the world's oceans and 1.6% of the total marine area within Exclusive Economic Zones, are currently protected. Only 0.08% of the world's oceans, and 0.2% of the total marine area under national jurisdiction is no-take. The global distribution of protected areas is both uneven and unrepresentative at multiple scales, and only half of the world's marine protected areas are part of a coherent network. Since 1984 the spatial extent of marine area protected globally has grown at an annual rate of 4.6%, at which even the most modest target is unlikely to be met for at least several decades rather than within the coming decade. These results validate concerns over the relevance and utility of broad conservation targets. However, given the low level of protection for marine ecosystems, a more immediate global concern is the need for a rapid increase in marine protected area coverage. In this case, the process of comparing targets to their expected achievement dates may help to mobilize support for the policy shifts and increased resources needed to improve the current level of marine protection. © 2008 Fauna & Flora International.",,340-351,,3,42,,ORYX,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,AREAS; assessment method; BIODIVERSITY; CLIMATE-CHANGE; CONNECTIVITY; conservation target; Conservation target; CONSERVATION TARGETS; DESIGN; DISPERSAL; DIVERSITY; environmental protection; geographical distribution; IMPACTS; international policy; International policy; marine park; marine policy; marine protected area; Marine protected area; protected area; RESERVES,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Recent decades have witnessed the emergence of new computational methods for analyzing and prioritizing the connectivity needs of multiple species. We argue that the goal of prioritizing habitat for multispecies connectivity should be focused on long-term persistence of a set of species in a landscape or seascape. Here we present a review of the literature based on 77 papers published between 2010 and 2020, in which we assess the current state and recent advances in multispecies connectivity analysis in terrestrial ecosystems. We summarize the four most employed analytical methods, compare their data requirements, and provide an overview of studies comparing results from multiple methods. We explicitly look at approaches for integrating multiple species considerations into reserve design and identify novel approaches being developed to overcome computational and theoretical challenges posed by multispecies connectivity analyses. There is a lack of common metrics for multispecies connectivity. We suggest the index of metapopulation capacity as one metric by which to assess and compare the effectiveness of proposed network designs. We conclude that, while advances have been made over the past decade, the field remains nascent by its ability to integrate multiple species interactions into analytical approaches to connectivity. Furthermore, the field is hampered its ability to provide robust connectivity assessments for lack of a clear definition and goal for multispecies connectivity conservation.

Evidence synthesis that collates primary research on MPA effectiveness can provide a crucial bridge between research, policy and practice. However, reviews vary in scope and rigour, meaning decision-makers face the challenge of identifying appropriate reviews. Documenting differences amongst reviews can therefore support nonspecialists in locating the most relevant and rigorous reviews and can also assist researchers in targeting evidence gaps. We addressed these priorities by systematically searching for reviews examining effectiveness of MPAs for biodiversity, critically appraising methods used and categorizing review scope. The 27 reviews assessed overlapped in scope (suggesting some redundancy) and differed substantially in reliability. Key strengths related to the effects of MPAs on fish abundance and the influence of MPA size and age on effectiveness. However, several gaps were noted, with some questions not addressed and others lacking highly reliable syntheses – importantly, the latter may create the perception that particular questions have been adequately addressed, potentially deterring new syntheses. Our findings indicate key aspects of review conduct that could be improved (e.g. documenting critical appraisal of primary research, evaluating potential publication bias) and can facilitate evidence-based policy by guiding nonspecialists to the most reliable and relevant reviews. Lastly, we suggest that future reviews with broader taxonomic coverage and considering the influence of a wider range of MPA characteristics on effectiveness would be beneficial. © 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,668-681,,4,18,,Fish Fish.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Ltd,,,,abundance; age; AGREEMENT; BENEFITS; biodiversity; Biodiversity conservation; CEESAT; CONSERVATION; decision making; ECOSYSTEM-BASED MANAGEMENT; ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE; evidence base; evidence review; evidence synthesis; fish; GLOBAL PATTERNS; literature review; marine environment; METAANALYSIS; MONITORING DATA; perception; protected area; PUBLICATION BIAS; research; RESERVES; review evaluation; size; strategic approach,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We then review means for active rehabilitation; the manipulation of reef organisms to facilitate recovery of value. We consider three principal objectives; increase in coral cover, decrease of free-living algae, and increase of reef fishes. We conclude that there are some successful examples of active reef rehabilitation measures, but their cost-effectiveness is debatable when large areas are considered, so they are likely to be used only on reefs of high value, such as in marine parks. Impact mitigation is not only a necessary prerequisite to reef rehabilitation, but is probably all that can be done for the larger reef areas until further advances are made in, for instance, the aquaculture of beneficial reef organisms.",,3059-3075,,,4,,,,,,,,Publ by ASCE,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: pt4 Journal Abbreviation: Coastal Zone,,,,Active Reef Rehabilitation; Coral Reefs; Degraded Coral Reefs; Ecology; Ecosystems; Environmental Impact; Environmental Protection; Marine Biology; Passive Reef Rehabilitation; Reef Rehabilitation,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Coastal Zone: Proceedings of the Symposium on Coastal and Ocean Management,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The plan outlines 20 Aichi Targets to achieve global biodiversity conservation. A fundamental global approach to biodiversity conservation is the use of protected areas. Arguably all 20 Aichi Targets have implications for the establishment and management of protected areas, but only Target 11 addresses them directly. This paper carries out a clause by clause analysis of Target 11 and makes recommendations to countries on interpreting each clause in order to best achieve biodiversity conservation using protected areas. Despite containing only 61 words, Target 11 is surprisingly dense. It applies to both marine and terrestrial ecosystems, and sets goals for spatial planning (representiveness, ecological connectivity and areas of importance for biodiversity); protected areas management (including management effectiveness and social equity); and criteria about what counts toward being a protected area under Target 11. We argue for a holistic interpretation of Target 11 as a way for the global community to use protected areas to change the current unacceptable trends in global biodiversity loss. © 2012, IUCN - International Union for the Conservation of Nature.

The results can be summarised as follows: 1. Nearly unanimously, area-based or in-situ conservation is considered to be important to conserve biodiversity (99 per cent). 2. All of the qualitative aspects of Target 11 are well supported, with strongest support for areas of importance for biodiversity (e.g. Key Biodiversity Areas); ecological connectivity; integration with broader landscapes and seascapes; and effective management. 3. Future area-based conservation targets should include large-scale conservation networks that include connectivity between protected areas, protection of endangered and threatened species or ecosystems, and ecologically intact wilderness areas. 4. Various methods from conservation biology were considered useful to establish area-based targets, with systematic conservation planning receiving the greatest support. 5. There is very strong agreement (79 per cent) that Target 11, with its current percentage targets of 17 per cent of land and freshwater and 10 per cent of coastal and marine areas, is not adequate to conserve biodiversity. 6.

The 17 per cent terrestrial and inland waters, and 10 per cent marine and coastal targets from Aichi Target 11 of the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011–2020 are not adequate to conserve biodiversity. 2. Percentage area targets cannot be considered in isolation from the quality considerations. Protected and conserved areas need to be selectively located, well governed, and effectively and equitably managed to conserve biodiversity. 3. There is no unequivocal answer for what percentage of the Earth should be protected. Estimates from studies considering a wide set of biodiversity values are very high; well over 50 per cent and up to 80 per cent. Studies that include a narrower subset of biodiversity values are lower, but rarely under 30 per cent, and always with caveats that they are incomplete estimates. Protected area conservation targets should be established based on the desired outcomes (e.g. halting biodiversity loss by 2030). 4. The global protection of a minimum of 30 per cent and up to 70 per cent, or even higher, of the land and sea on Earth is well supported in the literature. The call for 50 per cent of the Earth is a mid-point of these values and is supported by a range of studies. 5.

Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity are poised to adopt a target of protecting at least 30 per cent of the Earth’s lands, seas and freshwater by 2030. This is in the draft Global Biodiversity Framework and supported by over 70 countries who have joined the High Ambition Coalition. The IUCN World Commission on Protected Areas, in partnership with UNEP – World Conservation Monitoring Centre, National Geographic, the Wildlife Conservation Society and Birdlife International has published guidance entitled ‘Conserving at least 30% of the planet by 2030: What should count?’. This guidance calls for a focus on quality as an essential part of large area-based conservation targets. Quality includes many elements, including a focus on establishing protected and conserved areas in areas important for biodiversity, how they are designed and ecologically connected, and ensuring management effectiveness and governance equity. But protected and conserved areas must be realised in full partnership with Indigenous and local communities. The 30 per cent minimum target provides a significant opportunity to strengthen security of tenure, land and use rights especially for Indigenous Peoples and support to IPLC-led conservation efforts. Moving to protect at least 30 per cent of the Earth by 2030 is a grand challenge in which we need to speak a common language. © 2021, IUCN - International Union for the Conservation of Nature.

Today's geography is, however, misleading and typical of only ~2% of the last million years; >90% of that time the region's land area was 1.5-2.0 times larger as mean sea levels were 62 m below today's, climates were cooler, and extensive forests and savanna covered the emerged Sunda plains. The region's land area varied two-fold as sea levels fluctuated up to ±50 m with each of ~50 Pleistocene glacial cycles, and forests expanded and contracted with oscillations in land area and seasonality. This dynamic geographic history is relevant to the development of biogeographic regionalism and shows that it is today's forests that are refugial, not those of the Last Glacial Maximum. This history affects how species will adapt or shift their ranges in response to global warming and further decreases in land area (submergence of low-lying coastal areas) during the 21st century. The alternative is mass species extinction. The biota is also threatened by the continued destruction of forest, destruction of Mekong River flood-pulse based ecosystems, and continued human population growth. Human biogeography will become more important in conservation planning as tens of millions of people who depend on protected area forests, riverine ecosystems, and coastal habitats become environmental refugees. Conservation scientists need to become more involved in regional ecological education, environmental stewardship, and ecosystem-based adaptation to sustain as much as possible of this rich biota and the ecological services it provides. © The Author(s) 2010.",,919-941,,4,19,,Biodiversity Conserv.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,adaptation; climate change; Climate change; conservation planning; DISPERSAL; DISTRIBUTIONS; ecosystem management; ecosystem service; ECOSYSTEM SERVICES; environmental change; environmental education; Environmental refugees; EVOLUTION; EXTINCTIONS; habitat loss; Hotspots; Last Glacial Maximum; mass extinction; Mekong River; paleogeography; Paleogeography; PALEOGEOGRAPHY; Pleistocene; PLIOCENE CLIMATE; population growth; rainforest; Rainforest; RECONSTRUCTIONS; Refugia; refugium; savanna; sea level change; Sea levels; SEA-LEVEL FLUCTUATIONS; Southeast Asia; Species ranges; Sundaland; TRANSITION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We present here the results of a characterization study of 67 NOAA Fisheries MMAs that are currently part of the national MMA database. For a subset of 32 sites (48%), we evaluated their effectiveness and determined whether the design and management of the MMA included goals, targets, timelines, and monitoring practices. Large MMAs (> 1,000 km2) with year-round protections and restrictions are managed by NOAA Fisheries. The MMAs are frequently comanaged with other regional MMAs as part of programmatic systems (88%), such as fishery management plans or recovery plans for endangered and threatened species. Far fewer MMAs (38%) function as biologically linked and connected networks. Nearly half of the MMAs promulgate fishing regulations under the Magnuson-Stevens Act combined with laws for the protection of an endangered or threatened species, and more than half of the sites have been established since 1996. All sites in the subset have goals, but only 63% have specific targets and timelines associated with the goals. Monitoring, most frequently in the form of stock assessments, is routinely performed at 87% of the sites within the subset. Lastly, 50% of the sites were either effective or part of an effective program, as evaluated against an MMA's ability to achieve the goals associated with its designation. © 2004 by the American Fisheries Society.",,89-103,,42,2004,,Am.

This is a particular concern with endangered species characterized by small population sizes. From June 2016 to May 2017, we measured the effects of human activities on daily the activity budget and home range size of mountain nyala (Tragelaphus buxtoni), an endemic antelope of the Ethiopian highlands. We tracked two groups of mountain nyala from two study sites that differ in the level of human activities; Adaba-Dodola Community Conservation Area (Adaba-Dodola CCA) and Arsi Mountains National Park (Arsi Mountains NP). Our results showed that the time spent on vigilance and movement was dramatically higher in Adaba-Dodola Community CCA, where human presence is significant, than in Arsi Mountains NP, whereas the opposite was true for time spent foraging and resting. In addition, mean home range size (95% KDE) was significantly larger for the Adaba-Dodola CCA group (13 ± 7.4 km2) than for the Arsi Mountains NP group (6.3 ± 2.7 km2) covering larger areas during the dry season (18.7 ± 6.9 km2) than the wet season (4.9 ± 1.0 km2). The finding that increased investment in vigilance and movement trade-off against the restorative behaviors of foraging and resting in human-disturbed areas have implications for conservation managements; specifically, it underscores the need to (i) establish the fitness consequences of behavioral changes, and (ii) monitoring behavioral change in the disturbed population with the aim of bringing it closer to the undisturbed baseline. The study highlights the importance of protected areas, limiting human activities and monitoring the behavioral change of endangered species in human-disturbed areas. © 2021 The Authors",,,,,32,,Glob.

Many CBE research are conducted using sea temperature data measured through infrared thermal (TIR) satellite sensor. However, very few study use optical remote sensing data. This study aim to analyze the potential of optical Sentinel-2 (S-2) satellite data for monitoring during (Jun. 2016) and after (Jun. 2018) CBE in small islands of marine protected areas (TWP) of Pieh. A series image analysis procedure was conducted, i.e. simple DOS atmospheric correction; normalizating digital numbers (DN) of Blue, Green and Red bands of subject images during and after CBE to the reference image (before CBE. Dec. 2015) using ""pseudo invariant feature (PIF)"" approach; subtracting the DN of each bands of images during and after CBE to the reference image, and generating color composite of natural color with a contrast stretch. Result showed that this procedure can detected clearly the CBE. There was an average decreasing bleaching trend of 1.63 ha (15.8%), which indicated that some corals have recovered from thermal stress inside the TWP of Pieh. However, islands outside the TWP of Pieh, showed an increasing trend by an average of 0.50 ha (21.2%). The predation corals by the crown of thorn seastar, Acanthaster planci, whose population exploded after CBE was the main reason why CBE still detected both inside and outside the TWP of Pieh.

Here, we use an IBD approach to determine patterns of connectivity to infer dispersal distances for a phylogenetically diverse range of marine species. Location: Two thousand and eight hundred kilometre of South African coastline. Methods: mtDNA data sets for 11 rocky shore and reef-dwelling marine species with diverse life history strategies (broadcast spawning, brooding and live-bearing) were used to quantify intraspecific genetic connectivity by means of global and pairwise ?st. Mantel tests were used to assess the significance of genetic structure with geographic distance. Significant, positive slopes were used to estimate dispersal distances. For all species, we also plotted genetic diversity along the coast and compared this to patterns of species richness. Results: For seven of the 11 species tested, we report positive IBD relationships, with patterns of IBD of similar magnitude in broadcast spawners and live-bearers. Dispersal estimates were low, with effective distances of < 10 km per generation. We find discordance between pelagic larval development and population structure and that genetic structure and the physio-geographic features of the coastline considered to be important biogeographic barriers do not overlap. Genetic diversity and species richness show congruent patterns, with both variables lowest on the west coast, and increasing towards the east. Main conclusions: Our study highlights the complexity of marine systems and the clear need for regional assessments of connectivity, rather than more general management plans which may not otherwise effectively encompass area-specific conservation needs. Importantly, we show that the current marine protected area (MPA) network in South Africa is not effective in protecting evolutionary processes and strongly recommend a network of more closely spaced MPAs in the region that reflects the low average connectivity between distant marine populations. © 2015 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,698-710,,6,21,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,biodiversity; CONNECTIVITY; conservation planning; dispersal; Dispersal barriers; DIVERSITY; evolutionary processes; Evolutionary processes; FLOW; genetic biodiversity; Genetic biodiversity; genetic isolation; GREAT-BARRIER-REEF; life history; MANAGEMENT; marine environment; marine park; marine protected area; Marine protected area; PACIFIC-OCEAN; PELAGIC LARVAL DURATION; POPULATION-STRUCTURE; PROTECTED AREAS; reef; rocky shore; rocky shores; Rocky shores; South Africa; SOUTH-AFRICA; Southern hemisphere; Southern Hemisphere,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The Sandy Bay West End Marine Reserve (SBWEMR) is a marine protected area in Roatán, Honduras, and a foraging area for the critically endangered hawksbill sea turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata). While direct capture by the public is forbidden, managing both increasing boat traffic, and its effect on hawksbill distribution and behavior are not addressed in the reserve's management plans. We aimed to quantify the amount of boat traffic moving throughout the SBWEMR and evaluate the effect of boat traffic on the presence, distribution, and behavior of juvenile hawksbills. Boat traffic throughout the reserve was quantified through a series of above-water and in-water surveys, while hawksbill behavior and presence were evaluated through in-water surveys using SCUBA. Spearman correlation suggested a moderate, but significant, positive correlation between boat intensity and hawksbill presence. Yet, a nonsignificant negative correlation was evident between boat intensity and behavior. Although data suggest that boat traffic may not disrupt or negatively alter in-water behavior, hawksbills are prone to the additional hazards of boat collisions and propeller strikes. To reduce the risks of injury and mortality, efforts should be made to continually monitor, regulate, and enforce vessel speeds in MPAs where hawksbills reside. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,198,,Ocean Coast.

Montane systems are often recognized as biodiversity hotspots. The primary objective of this study is to identify patterns of montane bird diversity across multiple spatial and temporal scales using an additive diversity partitioning framework.Location The Ailao Mountains, central Yunnan Province, China.Methods We used point counts to sample bird communities in four elevational zones, on eastern and western slopes, during both the breeding and the non-breeding seasons. Diversity (richness and Shannon) was partitioned across space (points, elevational zones and slopes) and time (seasons). We used permutation tests to compare observed values to values expected by random chance. A complementary cluster analysis was also used to evaluate beta diversity.Results Overall, the gamma diversity was attributed to significantly higher beta diversity (relative to that of randomization tests) among elevational zones and, to a lesser extent, between slopes. For Shannon-Wiener Index, beta diversity between seasons was significantly higher than expected and had a similar contribution to the gamma diversity as with beta diversity between slopes. Hierarchical cluster analysis supported the findings for Shannon-Wiener Index. The contribution of beta diversity among points to gamma diversity within each elevational zone generally lessened with increasing elevation.Main conclusions Our results show significantly high levels of beta diversity among elevational zones and between slopes, as well as between seasons for Shannon diversity, in a small area of the Ailao Mountain range. Thus, a regional montane reserve system should cover the entire elevational gradient and multiple slopes, rather than only the montane crest. Furthermore, higher pattern diversity in lower elevational zones suggests that larger areas should be preserved at lower elevational zones. Finally, the design of regional reserve systems require more studies conducted at multiple seasons at a regional scale. © 2010 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.",,1022-1033,,6,16,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,Additive partitioning; Ailao Mountains; Aves; Beta diversity; biodiversity; Bird diversity; breeding season; China; cluster analysis; conservation planning; Conservation planning; elevation; Montane region; mountain region; nature reserve; niche partitioning; regional planning; Regional reserve design; reserve design; Spatial and temporal dimensions; spatiotemporal analysis; species diversity; species richness; Yunnan,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

While mitigation measures aim at restricting fishing activities by spatial, temporal and gear management, these measures undoubtedly decrease fishery production and trigger conservation-livelihood conflicts, particularly in artisanal fisheries associating with ‘poverty traps’. This study surveyed spatio-temporal activities of trammel-net fisheries and fishers’ education-household livelihood background in a rural fishing village in the northern Beibu Gulf, China to investigate dolphin-fishing interactions and the willingness of fishers to exit fishing and their ability to engage in alternative livelihoods with regard to fishers’ household livelihood baselines. Within the survey region, overlap between humpback dolphins and trammel-net fishing was high (at least 43.35%). Spatial closures through MPAs would help reduce 46.9% of trammel-net fishing. While labor force aging and low education levels were observed in fishing, farming and casual labor livelihoods, fishers showed an unwillingness to exit fishing and inability to engage in alternative livelihoods. The suspended MPA plan should be enacted immediately to reduce fishing-gear entanglements. Implementation of a permanent trammel-net ban or ‘exit-fishing’ policy, however, should address the household livelihood consequences to fishers. Though ecotourism is often recommended to fishers as an alternative livelihood, low education level hinders fishers’ ability to engage in dolphin-watching tourism in a sustainable manner. Fishing-gear modification, an ad hoc training program focusing on sustainable ecotourism, motivating and mobilizing local people in MPA monitoring and management, and integration of traditional ecological knowledge into livelihood diversification programs are critical components to deal with the complexity of this issue. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,139,,Mar.

As one of the largest landholders in Australia, the Australian Defence Force (ADF) is increasingly concerned with sustainable environmental management. This paper focuses on how the ADF is maintaining effective environmental management, especially in environmentally sensitive marine protected areas. It uses Shoalwater Bay Training Area (SWBTA) as a research example to examine environmental management strategies conducted by the ADF. SWBTA is one of the most significant Defence training areas in Australia, with a large number of single, joint and combined military exercises conducted in the area. With its maritime component contained in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (GBRMP), the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area (GBRWHA), and abutting Queensland's State Marine Parks, it has high protection values. It is therefore vital for the ADF to adopt environmentally responsible management while they are conducting military activities. As to various tools employed to manage environmental performance, the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System (EMS) is widely used by the ADF. This paper examines military activities and marine environmental management within SWBTA, using the Talisman Saber (TS) exercise series as an example. These are extensive joint exercises conducted by the ADF and the United States defence forces. The paper outlines relevant legislative framework and environmental policies, analyses how the EMS operates in environmental management of military activities, and how military activities comply with these regulations. It discusses the implementation of the ADF EMS, including risk reduction measures, environmental awareness training, consultation and communication with stakeholders. A number of environmental management actions used in the TS exercises are presented to demonstrate the EMS application. Our investigations to this point indicate that the ADF is complying with all relevant legislation and policies. Further research is required to confirm compliance and conclude that military activities have good accord with environmental management objectives. © 2010 Chinese Society for Oceanology and Limnology, Science Press and Springer Berlin Heidelberg.",,667-676,,3,28,,Chin.

An Environmental Performance Indicator (EPI) framework is considered to be a good means for MPAs’ management planning and assessment. As a peculiar type of MPAs with Chinese characteristics, Special Marine Protected Area (SMPA) is still at an imperfect stage in terms of its operation and management in China. There is a scarcity of research evidence of SMPAs’ management and its effectiveness evaluation as well. Focusing on this relatively new research field, this paper aims to establish a conceptual model and an operable EPI framework for examining SMPA's day-to-day management and evaluating its management effects, using Jiaozhou Bay Coastal Wetland SMPA (JZBCWSMPA), the first SMPA of Qingdao, as a case study. The evaluation model and indicator framework are developed via a comprehensive approach taking basic management ideas, international well-known model, widely used indicator frameworks and specific features of the study area into consideration. An expert ranking procedure is also conducted to aggregate the initial indicators. The innovative features of this framework are described, such as it is not only a systematic framework incorporating various kinds of indicators but also specifically practicable for the study area. It is expected that the research outcomes will provide technical supports for JZBCWSMPA's management effectiveness evaluation (MEE) and scientific references for decision-making and guiding for Qingdao's social-economic sustainable development. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,71-89,,,142,,Ocean Coast.

Assessing the negative effects of oil infrastructures at the landscape scale is critical for practical coastal wetland management and the planning of protected areas (PAs). However, information gaps involving wetland connectivity and oil exploration exist in current conservation, which limit the efficiency of PAs. Here, we used a GIS-based circuit theory model (Circuitscape) and high-resolution remote sensing data to simulate the movement patterns of random species and to elucidate the effects of oil wells on their connective elements in four types of wetlands (mudflat, saline marsh, shrub wetland and forest wetland) in the Yellow River Delta (YRD), China. The effectiveness of the Yellow River Delta Nature Reserve (YRDNR) in protecting wetland connectivity was evaluated. A planning framework to optimize wetland conservation and restoration by Linkage Mapper was then provided to improve the landscape connectivity of oil well-disturbed wetlands in this region. The results showed that oil wells significantly decreased wetland connectivity and altered their connective elements in the four wetlands of the YRD. Both the resistance of wetland species movement and the heterogeneity of species dispersal have increased. The length of potential corridors and areas possessing barriers to movement have increased by 126 km (20%) and 51 km2 (120%), respectively. Areas with pinch points that promote species movements, however, decreased by 1178 km2 (60%). The YRDNR protected less than 50% of the key corridors and ecological nodes, considering the impacts of oil wells. Mudflat is seriously affected by oil wells in the YRDNR. Consequently, new alternative corridors produced by oil wells and pinch areas at high risk of impacts by oil wells have the highest protection priorities, whereas those permeable barrier areas, such as croplands and paddy fields, have the highest restoration priorities. The results also illustrated the importance of rivers and water bodies as potential shelters for wetland species. Our research suggests that circuit theory model is an effective planning tool to quantify the negative impacts of oil activities and to identify the protection or restoration priorities of ecological hot spots which are unable to be detected by traditional PAs method.

Subsequent remote camera trap surveys over a larger area included collaboration with two additional neighbouring Indigenous ranger groups, Karrajarri and Nyikina Mangala. These surveys investigated the spatial and temporal relationship between SHW and other mammals which may threaten (e.g., feral Cat [Felis catus], Dingo [Canis familiaris dingo]) or compete (e.g., Agile Wallaby [Macropus agilis]; Cattle [Bos taurus]) with them. We found a negative relationship between SHW and cat activity, suggesting that cats may limit the activity or abundance of SHW. Temporal portioning was evident between SHW and both Cattle and Agile Wallaby suggesting that SHW may avoid times when these species are most active. Further, we found a negative relationship between SHW occurrence and distance to fire scar edge burnt in current or previous fire season. This edge habitat is likely important to SHW because they may require recently burnt areas to forage and dense unburnt areas to shelter.

However, consequences of such crises on freshwater fish biodiversity in China remain only partially or locally studied. Furthermore, identifications of relatively sensitive areas along with stressors (i.e., environmental and anthropogenic drivers) influencing freshwater fish biodiversity patterns are still pending. Taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic facets of biodiversity can well describe and evaluate the underlying processes affecting freshwater fish biodiversity patterns under different dimensionalities. Here we thus evaluated temporal changes in these facets of freshwater fish biodiversity as well as a new developed biodiversity index, multifaceted changes in fish biodiversity, for over a century at the basin level throughout China using both alpha and beta diversity approaches. We also identified the drivers influencing the changes in fish biodiversity patterns using random forest models. The results showed that fish assemblages in Northwest and Southwest China (e.g., Ili River basin, Tarim basin, and Erhai Lake basin) experienced extreme temporal and multifaceted changes in the facets of biodiversity compared with other regions, and environmental factors (e.g., net primary productivity, average annual precipitation, and unit area) largely drove these changes. Since fish faunas in over 80% of China's water bodies covering more than 80% of China's surface were currently undergoing taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic homogenization, targeted conservation and management strategies should be proposed and implemented, especially for the areas with relatively high changes in biodiversity. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,344,,J.

Tourists’ WTP varies by resource type, among which the WTP for the above six subsamples ranged from Ą192.93 to Ą373.16, confirming the existence of the non-use values of marine tourism resources in China. These results not only provide references for determining priorities for protecting marine tourism resources but also suggest that policymakers can focus on the more attractive resources to raise conservation funds, thus promoting the realization of general conservation objectives.

However, there is no systematic study being conducted on the EDLNNR's historical trend of land use/land cover (LULC). Therefore, it is crucial to understand the relationship between changes in functional zones' boundary and spatio-temporal changes in the LULC from pre-establishment to the present time for adequate protection. The objective of this study is to understand the spatio-temporal dynamics of LULC changes from 1979 to 2019 in the three functional zones of EDLNNR during the dry season. LULC transition matrix and landscape metrics at the landscape level were also used to investigate the land type dynamics and landscape fragmentation, respectively. An increase in the marsh area was observed in all three functional zones of EDLNNR. The built-up area was increased due to the conversion of agricultural land. The landscape metrics-based analysis showed that the EDLNNR was less fragmented in 2019 than the previous record in 2016, due to the adjustment action of the three functional zones' boundary of the EDLNNR in 2018. The excluded area of the EDLNNR was from its experimental zone, which includes densely populated areas and surrounding agricultural land and woodland. The spatio-temporal LULC change information can offer effective management and conservation of different functional zones of the EDLNNR. This study can also act as a case model for effective management of other protected areas worldwide. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,126,,Phys. Chem.

These 88 marine protected areas include 12 natural reserves, 30 special protected areas, and 46 aquatic germplasm resources protection areas. Based on the contingent valuation method (CVM), a questionnaire was developed to survey the willingness to pay (WTP) to maintain all 88 MPAs. The survey samples were taken from Jinan (as an example of inland cities) and Qingdao (as an example of coastal cities) in November 2014. The results suggested that the WTP of the urban residents in Shandong province represents the costs that people are willing to pay for keeping the ecosystem diversity from all Shandong MPAs. The average WTP among inland residents was 102.15 CNY per person, which is 23.05 CNY higher than that of coastal residents (82.29 CNY per person). Based on the 2014 survey, the total value of ecosystem diversity maintenance of the 88 MPAs was 4.37 billion CNY, with an average of 49.7 million CNY per MPA. Furthermore, this value per MPA ranged from 17.5 to 274 million CNY per MPA. For the 12 natural reserves together, the value was 1.6 billion CNY, with an average of 135 million CNY per MPA, and it ranged from 73 to 274 million CNY per MPA. For the 30 special protected areas, the value of ecosystem diversity maintenance was 1.45 billion CNY, the average was 48.9 million CNY per MPA, and the values per MPA ranged from 36 to 127 million CNY per MPA. Finally, for the 46 aquatic germplasm resources protection areas the total ecosystem diversity maintenance value was 1.29 billion CNY, the average was 28 million CNY per MPA, and it ranged from 17.5 to 97 million CNY per MPA. Furthermore, the spatial average of ecosystem diversity maintenance value for the 88 MPAs was 4.49 million CNY/km2, ranging from 54.4 thousand to 173 million CNY/km2. The spatial value of the 12 natural reserves was 18.25 million CNY/km2, for the 30 special protected areas it was 2.69 million CNY/km2, and for the aquatic germplasm resources protection areas it was 2.07 million CNY/km2. The value of the natural reserves established by the environmental protection department was higher than for the special protected areas established by the marine management department. In addition, the value of the aquatic germplasm resources protection areas established by the fisheries management department was the lowest. Our study suggests that the value of ecosystem diversity maintenance should be covered in the selection criteria and management objectives of MPAs. Habitats with the highest value of ecosystem diversity maintenance should be set up as natural reserves that have the strictest management measures. Their management objectives should include increasing or keeping the ecosystem diversity maintenance value. The areas with a lower value should be set up as special protected areas or aquatic germplasm resources protection areas. These should have stricter management measures, and their management objective should include maintaining the value of ecosystem diversity maintenance. © 2016. Shengtai Xuebao Acta Ecologica Sinica.

With regard to the research methods, the literature primarily used qualitative analysis and case study methods, while quantitative analysis was only supplementary. The theoretical basis of relevant research involved different theories of multiple disciplines, containing theories of institutional change, polycentric governance, stakeholder analysis, ecological integrity, and so on. Based on the current research progress, this article proposed some directions of further study on protected area management systems, including strengthening the theoretical development of relevant studies, evaluating the effectiveness of management operation under diverse modes of power allocation, studying coordination mechanisms of the operation of power, and mechanisms for the realization of participative management, perfecting the theoritical basis on the establishment of laws and regulations, and paying attention to the potential impacts of climate change. © 2022 The Author(s).",,1707-1722,,8,44,,Resour.

The purpose of this paper is to comprehensively introduce the development and application of the IUCN Red List, to promote Chinese species assessment and wide application in China. Review Results: (1) The history of the IUCN Red List. During the phase of Red Data Book of Endangered Species, it was largely dependent on individual experts’ personal judgement to make decisions on threatened categories. From 1991, the criteria gradually became quantified and unified for all taxon groups. Since IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria: Version 3.1 published in 2001, the categories and criteria has been kept stable and become widely applied around the world. Until now, more than 140,000 species (among them, 10,846 species are distributed in China) have been evaluated at the global level, over 55,000 species evaluated at China country level, and over 100 countries/regions have developed their regional/national Red List. (2) Global criteria and assessment. The category system covers all species in the world, among which, three categories regarded as “threatened”, i.e., Critical Endangered (CR), Endangered (EN) or Vulnerable (VU), must be evaluated by the five set of criteria. The current global level assessment work is mainly completed by the IUCN Species Survival Committee (SSC) and its partners, and there are strict requirements for the assessment. (3) National and regional criteria and applications. Compared with the global application, the category and criteria are applicable to regional applications, only the assessment results should be adjusted if the species population communicates with neighboring regions (or countries). (4) Assessment status of China Red List. The first comprehensive assessment began in 2000 for 10,211 species, and the China Red List of Species was published in 2004. The second comprehensive assessment began in 2008, and the official release began in 2013. By the end of 2021, over 55,000 species assessments were completed, including all terrestrial vertebrates and higher plants, some marine fishes, invertebrates, and large fungi. Yunnan Province has issued the first provincial red list. (5) Application of the Red List. The application of Red List continues to grow rapidly, both globally and in China. The Red List Index is used to measure biodiversity changes over time. The Red List is also applied for decision-making on species conservation priorities and key priority conservation areas, implementation of international conventions, formulating (revising) key protected species list of countries (regions) and protected area management and effective allocation of resources and public awareness raising. (6) Major discussions on Red List application. Since the publication of the Categories and Criteria, major discussions are on the methodology of obtaining data. While a few experts believe that some criteria are flawed and need to be improved, and some others calls for maintaining a long-term relative stable of criteria for comparisons over time. (7) Recommendations on sustainable mechanism and application in China. We recommend to establish China Red List Committee, develop a professional website for China Red List, build capacity of Red List assessors, establish mechanism for receiving and reviewing assessment reports, and strengthen international cooperation to promote application and development of global and China Red List. © 2022, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Unfortunately, coral reefs around the globe are declining, thus apart from marine protected areas, active conservation and restoration efforts are extremely crucial. In this study Acropora formosa nubbins were transplanted and their performance were monitored, with the main aim to evaluate their survivals and growth in comparison with natural reef. The extension growth, proto-branch generation, mortality and survivals were assessed for one year in Tioman Island, Malaysia. The A. formosa growth rates ranged from 0.59±0.07 to 1.20±0.03 cm mth-1 in the nursery and from 0.55±0.13 to 0.72±0.11 cm mth-1 in the natural reef. The transplanted corals exhibit higher growth rates particularly during early period of transplant, and moreover have significantly higher proto-branch generation rates compared with the natural colony. However, their survivals were significantly low, mostly due to predation by fish and other corallivores. Seasonal variations in coral growth were observed, with faster rates during the inter-monsoon period (March-April and October-November). This study for the first time, documented the success of A. formosa transplantation and its application in coral nurseries in Malaysian waters. Coral transplantation is highly beneficial for active coral reef restoration and conservation. Nevertheless, continuous long term, systematic monitoring are needed in order to have greater understanding of the A. formosa growth and dynamics in the tropical coral reef ecosystems. © 2016, BIOFLUX SRL.

Since MPAs may be situated in close proximity to urbanized areas and influenced by anthropogenic activities (e.g. continuous discharges of contaminated waters), the marine organisms contained in such waters are probably at risk. This study aimed at developing an integrated environmental risk assessment and management (IERAM) framework for enhancing the sustainability of such MPAs. The IERAM framework integrates conventional environmental risk assessment methods with a multi-layer-DPSIR (Driver-Pressure-State-Impact-Response) conceptual approach, which can simplify the complex issues embraced by environmental management strategies and provide logical and concise management information. The IERAM process can generate a useful database, offer timely update on the status of MPAs, and assist in the prioritization of management options. We use the Cape d'Aguilar Marine Reserve in Hong Kong as an example to illustrate the IERAM framework. A comprehensive set of indicators were selected, aggregated and analyzed using this framework. Effects of management practices and programs were also assessed by comparing the temporal distributions of these indicators over a certain timeframe. Based on the obtained results, we have identified the most significant components for safeguarding the integrity of the marine reserve, and indicated the existing information gaps concerned with the management of the reserve. Apart from assessing the MPA's present condition, a successful implementation of the IERAM framework as evocated here would also facilitate better-informed decision-making and, hence, indirectly enhance the protection and conservation of the MPA's marine biodiversity. © 2014 Elsevier B.V.",,269-281,,,505,,Sci.

After failing to meet this goal, the international communities renewed their commitments and, in 2010, adopted the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011—2020, including the 2020 global biodiversity targets (Aichi Biodiversity Targets). As a Party to the CBD, it is important for China to assess progress toward the 2020 targets, and identify gaps and future priorities for biodiversity conservation. We created an indicator system for assessing the 2020 targets based on a pressure-state-benefit-response framework. The indicator system contains 17 Class A indicators and 42 Class B indicators. It covers four major aspects: (1) the status of biodiversity (the extent of forests, grasslands, wetlands, and deserts; total standing stock volume; stock volume of natural forests; total output of fresh grass in natural grasslands; the Marine Trophic Index; the Red List Index; and traditional varieties and breeds used in production); (2) ecosystem services (supply of goods; water regulation; windbreaks; sand control; soil conservation; per capita annual net income of rural households; and the number of people in poverty in regions where natural forest conservation projects were implemented); (3) pressure (annual waste water emissions; COD from industrial wastewater; SO2 from exhaust gas; soot from exhaust gas and industrial solid wastes; annual application of pesticides and fertilizers; climate change; the number of new invasive alien species found every two decades; and the number and batch of harmful species intercepted by customs and port authorities); and (4) response (the number and area of protected areas; forest growing stock in counties where natural forest conservation projects were implemented; capacity of flue-gas desulfurization (FGD) units; treatment rate of municipal wastewater; comprehensive utilization rate of solid waste; area of solar water heaters; the number of solar stoves; annual output of agricultural waste disposal projects; websites about China's biodiversity found using a Coogle search; the number of academic papers on biodiversity identified through a search of the VIP literature database; and investments into projects on natural forest resource protection, wildlife conservation in nature reserves, and wetland conservation). We assessed progress toward the 2020 Biodiversity Targets using these biodiversity indicators. For Targets 2, 16, and 18, no assessments were made because of a lack of relevant national indicators. The indicators identified various levels of improvement in Targets 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 10, 11, 14, 15, 17, 19, and 20; China is on track toward meeting these targets. In particular, considerable progress has been made toward Target 3 (incentive measures), Target 5 (reduction in habitat degradation and loss for ecosystems other than grasslands), Target 11 (increasing protected areas and strengthening management effectiveness), Target 14 (restoring important ecosystem services), and Target 15 (reinforcing ecosystem resilience and carbon sequestration). However, decreasing trends were noted for Target 5 (primarily for indicators of grassland conservation), Target 6 (sustainable fisheries), Target 8 (controlling environmental pollution), Target 12 (protecting endangered species), and Target 13 (protecting genetic resources). This suggests that, although we have already done tremendous work, we should develop more effective strategies and take practical measures toward achieving these targets. In general, biodiversity continues to decline in China. There are many challenges for biodiversity conservation because of wildlife habitat loss or degradation, severe pollution of key river basins and marine areas, the spread of invasive alien species, large-scale monoculture plantations, and climate change. Thus, more effective indicators need to be developed for the values of biodiversity, sustainable consumption, ecosystem degradation, representativeness and management effectiveness of protected areas, access to genetic resources and benefit-sharing from their use, and the effects of agriculture, aquaculture, forestry, and climate change on biodiversity. In addition, more attention should be given to the restoration of ecosystem functions and biodiversity, conservation of endangered species and genetic resources, and prevention and control of invasive alien species. © 2016, Ecological Society of China.

At present, approximately 17 % of the world's land areas are under protection, but large conservation gaps still exist. Moreover, to fulfil the global commitment of protecting 30 % of land areas by 2030, identifying potential habitats and conservation priorities for threatened species are urgently required. Therefore, this study aims to assess the habitat suitability of five species of cranes, which are internationally recognized flagship species across critical wetlands in northeast China, and to identify gaps in the current PAs network using a combination of field-based investigation and a species distribution modelling approach. Line transects were repeatedly conducted at monthly intervals to cover the entire migratory and breeding seasons, with a total length of 4622 km. Information on crane occurrences and habitat conditions were recorded during the fieldwork. Results showed that distance from lakes predominantly determined the distribution of the cranes. Winter precipitation affected stopover determination of migratory cranes, and temperature affected the distribution of breeding cranes. The analysis showed that the current PA network could not cover the entire suitable habitat for all crane species, with >50 % of suitable migratory crane habitat and approximately 20 % of suitable breeding crane habitat remaining outside of the PAs. Correspondingly, two conservation priority areas were identified that require effective conservation measures. This study provides critical information on the habitat requirements of five crane species and identifies conservation priorities so that flagship species and critical wetlands can be effectively protected. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,294,,Biol.

These habitats receive dissolved and particulate material inputs, like nutrients and heavy metals, affecting both plant health and the ecosystem. Eelgrass (Zostera marina L.), sediments, and water were randomly collected at twenty sites along the temperate North Pacific coasts of Asia and North America to assess heavy metals concentrations (Cr, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb). This aimed to understand heavy metal distribution and accumulation patterns in eelgrass tissues, revealing crucial factors influencing metal accumulation. The sampling included various areas, from pristine marine reserves to human-influenced zones, covering industrial, agricultural, and aquaculture regions, enabling a thorough analysis. This study's uniqueness lies in comparing heavy metal distributions in eelgrass tissues with sediments, uncovering unique accumulation patterns. Aboveground eelgrass tissues mainly accumulated Cd, Zn, and Cu, while belowground tissues stored Cr and Pb. Aboveground eelgrass tissues proved reliable in indicating Cd and Pb concentrations in sediments. However, the correlation between Cu, Zn, and Cr in eelgrass tissues and environmental concentrations seemed less direct, requiring further investigation into factors affecting metal accumulation in seagrass. Human activities are probable major contributors to heavy metal presence in Asian marine environments, whereas oceanographic processes serve as primary metal sources in North American Pacific estuaries. Critical discoveries emphasize the necessity for ongoing research on phytotoxic thresholds and in-depth studies on the complex connections between seagrass physiology and environmental metal concentrations. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for evaluating the broader impact of heavy metal pollution on coastal ecosystems and developing effective conservation measures. © 2023 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,343,,Environ.

Recent studies show how genetic data can inform spatial conservation prioritization (SCP), but they focus on metrics of diversity and distinctness derived primarily from neutral genetic data sets. Identifying adaptive genetic markers can provide important information regarding the capacity for populations to adapt to environmental change. Yet, the effect of including metrics based on adaptive genomic data into SCP in comparison to more widely used neutral genetic metrics has not been explored. We used existing genomic data on a commercially exploited species, the giant California sea cucumber (Parastichopus californicus), to perform SCP for the coastal region of British Columbia (BC), Canada. Using a RAD-seq data set for 717 P. californicus individuals across 24 sampling locations, we identified putatively adaptive (i.e., candidate) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) based on genotype–environment associations with seafloor temperature. We calculated various metrics for both neutral and candidate SNPs and compared SCP outcomes with independent metrics and combinations of metrics. Priority areas varied depending on whether neutral or candidate SNPs were used and on the specific metric used. For example, targeting sites with a high frequency of warm-temperature-associated alleles to support persistence under future warming prioritized areas in the southern coastal region. In contrast, targeting sites with high expected heterozygosity at candidate loci to support persistence under future environmental uncertainty prioritized areas in the north. When combining metrics, all scenarios generated intermediate solutions, protecting sites that span latitudinal and thermal gradients. Our results demonstrate that distinguishing between neutral and adaptive markers can affect conservation solutions and emphasize the importance of defining objectives when choosing among various genomic metrics for SCP. © 2020 Society for Conservation Biology",,909-920,,3,35,,Conserv.

The distribution and structure of alpine ecosystems greatly depend on temperature variables including growing season length. Tree-line shifts, structural change of alpine plant communities and shifts of the alpine-nival ecotone are among the most commonly observed impacts of climate change. The Global Observation Research Initiative in Alpine Environments (GLORIA) network has developed a common methodology and facilitates a global approach for studying the effects of climate change in alpine ecosystems with repeated measurements in permanent plots. Mt Olympus, Greece, was the last target region to join the network. In this study we use the vegetation data from the baseline survey on Mt Olympus to describe floristic patterns along an elevational gradient of four summits. To examine compositional, life-form and chorological differences between- and within-summits we analyzed data from 32 plots. Moreover, we fitted generalized linear models to distinguish important environmental variables for the occurrence of plant taxa. Our results demonstrate that elevation was the dominant factor influencing vegetation changes along the examined gradients. Additional, the life-form spectrum does not provide sufficient information to be used as index for monitoring climate change impacts on vegetation composition. Instead, the use of the species matrix provides enough information regarding the between-summits dissimilarities. We also identified a number of plant taxa that are highly related to either low or high elevations. These taxa could be used as early warning indices of compositional shifts. © 2023 Société botanique de France.",,253-266,,2,171,,Botany Let,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Taylor and Francis Ltd.,,,,Alpine grasslands; ALPINE VEGETATION; climate change; CLIMATE-CHANGE IMPACTS; ENDEMISM; EUROPEAN ALPS; GLORIA; GLORIA network; LEFKA-ORI; MEASURING BETA-DIVERSITY; monitoring; MOUNTAIN SUMMITS; SIERRA-NEVADA; special area of conservation GR1250001; VASCULAR PLANT DIVERSITY,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

We also evaluated genetic indicators for each criterion of important marine areas. We proposed five genetic indices, mainly based on microsatellite analysis (e.g., private allele frequency and number of cryptic species), then selected EBSAs in tropical and temperate zones of Japan based on eight coral species as a case study. Finally, we compared the results with the findings from conventional species-based EBSAs. In the EBSAs genetic information was mainly used in the Northern Hemisphere, particularly in the Baltic Sea; it was rarely applied in the Southern Hemisphere and Asian regions. Although typically applied to large organisms, genetic information is used to various organisms, including benthic and bacterial communities. Genetic data are used as indicators of diversity and endemism. Genetic indices were available for all seven EBSA criteria, but only five indices of three criteria were used. Examination of important areas of corals in the temperate zone using these indices showed that the indices without genetic indicators extracted a large number of important areas in the tropics; however, the use of genetic indicators identified important locations, including in temperate zones. Comparison with conventional, mainly species-based non-genetic methods showed less than 50% agreement, although particularly important sites in marine protected areas were identified by both methods. While there is still more work to be done, such as consideration of the number of survey sites or target species, one reason is that species-based methods tend to evaluate tropical areas higher. Therefore, these genetic indices are useful for examining important regions, particularly in temperate zones; they revealed cryptic lineages, indicating that many unknown marine taxa should be considered in vulnerable marine areas. Some indicators could be extracted with additional effort, such as population size estimation, immigration, or the use of next-generation sequencing, thus guiding future studies. Because limited genetic information was available in the early stages of EBSA selection, there is a need for systematic surveys and evaluations, particularly in the Southern hemisphere, Asian region, and in small organisms.

To improve marine biodiversity, the Aichi Biodiversity Targets were adopted in 2010. The recommendation of the Subsidiary Body on Scientific, Technical and Technological Advice (SBSTTA), encourages application of the ecologically or biologically significant area (EBSA) process to identify areas for conservation. However, there are few examples of the use of EBSA criteria to evaluate entire oceans. In this article, seven criteria are numerically evaluated to identify important marine areas (EBSA candidates) in the E–SE Asia region. The discussion includes 1) the possibility of EBSA criteria quantification throughout the E–SE Asia oceans and the suitability of the indices selected; 2) optimal integration methods for criteria, and the relationships between the criteria and data robustness and completeness; and; 3) a comparison of the EBSA candidates identified and existing registered areas for the purpose of conservation, such as marine protected areas (MPAs). Most of the EBSA criteria could be quantitatively evaluated throughout the Asia-Pacific region. However, three criteria in particular showed a substantial lack of data. Our methodological comparison showed that complementarity analysis performed better than summation because it considered criteria that were evaluated only in limited areas. Most of the difference between present-day registered areas and our results for EBSAs resulted from a lack of data and differences in philosophy for the selection of indices. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd",,273-284,,,81,,Mar.

This paper reviews previous and current ideas as well as the methods used, for the identification of EBSAs. In particular, the following issues are addressed: problems associated with different types of marine ecosystems in the Japanese Archipelago, such as seagrass and seaweed beds, coral reefs, offshore pelagic plankton, and deep-sea benthic ecosystems; and problems associated with the integration of multiple criteria that are not totally exclusive. Several candidate variables accounting for each of the 7 criteria used to identify ecologically important areas are presented. Data availability is the most important criterion that allowed for the comprehensive evaluation of different types of ecosystems in the same localities. In particular, for coastal ecosystems such as seagrass, seaweed beds, and coral reefs, it is possible to carry out broad spatial comparisons using variables representing most of these 7 criteria. Regarding methods for the quantitative evaluation of each criterion and their integration, application of these methods to kelp forest ecosystems in Hokkaido, Northern Japan is presented as a case study. © 2014 The Authors.",,136-147,,,51,,Mar.

Rockfish species targeted in this fishery are yelloweye rockfish S. ruberrimus and quillback rockfish S. maliger. Expansion of the fishery outpaced management's effort controls, and catch quotas were implemented in the early 1990s. Conservation concerns largely based on life history traits resulted in restrictions to the directed fishery, but other fisheries remained unmanaged. A growing mismatch between the demands of fishery management and the difficulties of inshore rockfish stock assessment led to the development of a conservation strategy in 2001. The strategy included the following four components: comprehensive catch monitoring; dramatically reduced fishing mortality; extensive fishery closed areas; and improved stock assessment and monitoring. Targets were met in 2002 by reducing the fishing mortality rate by 75% in the protected waters east of Vancouver Island (inside area) and by 50% in the remaining open-coast waters (outside area). Research survey programs were reinstated by the provision of funds in 2003. An intricate catch accounting and monitoring proposal from industry set the rules in a pilot groundfish licensing integration program launched in 2006. Progress continues to be made on this difficult task. Areas closed to all fishing were implemented in 30% of the rockfish habitats throughout the inside area and in 20% of the outside area in 2007. Key to the development of the strategy was the consultation process. Consensus-based decision making within the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and the organization and commitment of industry participants contributed to this success. Open communication and respectful conduct brought participants to the table and kept them engaged. Without the consultation process and the benefits from this exchange, the conservation strategy would not have been possible. © American Fisheries Society 2010.",,28-46,,1,2,,Mar.

We incorporate the two approaches into a bioeconomic model and evaluate how they act as substitutes and/or complements when used together in fisheries stock recovery plans. Simulations of the model with estimated parameters from an actual fishery show that the cost of adopting a harvest strategy of slow stock rebuilding can be offset or substituted by a no-take reserve. For each of the harvest strategies explored, we find there is a range of reserve sizes that can act as a complement in a stock recovery plan such that a no-take reserve improves both the profitability of fishers and average annual harvest during stock rebuilding. We demonstrate that a stock recovery plan that incorporates both harvest control rules and no-take reserves can simultaneously contribute to conservation, economic and socio-economic objectives of fisheries management. © 2015 Elsevier B.V.",,Jan-18,,,40,,Resour.

Although PADDD is expected to weaken biodiversity protection, PADDD offsets and new unrelated protected areas (PAs) could help restore representation of biodiversity features to the reserve network affected by PADDD. Globally, we analyzed 16 territories with terrestrial PADDD and 4 territories with marine PADDD from 2011 to 2020. Our objective was to evaluate whether PADDD offsets and new PAs could restore the PAs, key biodiversity areas (KBAs), ecoregions, and threatened amphibian, mammal, bird, and reptile species ranges where PADDD had occurred. In our studied territories, offsets of PADDD were rare (enacted in 3 [19%] terrestrial territories and one [25%] marine territory). One territory had PADDD losses that were compensated fully by PADDD offsets in terms of area coverage and ecoregions represented. All other territories failed to achieve compensation goals. In territories affected by PADDD, PADDD offsets and new PAs partially restored area representation (63%) and KBA coverage (57%). However, only 38% of ecoregion representation and 20%, 33%, 31%, and 21% of threatened amphibian, mammal, bird, and reptile representation, respectively, were restored. Overall, we found a large shortfall in PADDD offsets, even when unrelated PAs were included in the calculus. There is an urgent need to expand PADDD offsets and PAs to advance biodiversity conservation and achieve the Global Biodiversity Framework's 30×30 target. Future planning of newly enacted conservation areas needs to prioritize biodiversity conservation and consider the purpose of restoring reserve networks affected by PADDD, rather than solely focusing on areal targets. © 2024 The Author(s).

The objective of this work is to study A. danaeifolium for Argentina and Paraguay, emphasizing the review of its distribution and the history of the botanical collections of the species. M&M: Specimens deposited in national and international herbaria and collected during monitoring tasks in the Río Pilcomayo National Park (Formosa, Argentina) were studied. Also, records were consulted in the GBIF and iNaturalist databases. The analysis of the diagnostic characters was carried out under a stereoscopic magnifying glass. Results and Conclusions: The diagnostic characters of A. danaeifolium are illustrated, and a map of the species distribution in Argentina and Paraguay is provided. We corroborate that the A. danaeifolium populations registered to date for both countries are scarce and are restricted to the Chaco Oriental district, where they grow associated with floodplains such as river banks and freshwater lagoons. The specimens found in the Río Pilcomayo National Park represent the first record of the species in a protected area, the first record in Formosa province, the most boreal record of Argentina and the first collection in the country in 70 years. Due to the intense deforestation recorded in the Chaco Oriental district in recent decades, the RPNP takes on special relevance for the conservation of the species. © 2021.

As one of the countries with the richest biodiversity in the world, China’s protected areas currently have problems such as insufficient protection coverage, lack of connectivity, insufficient expansion space, and limited compatibility with other land types, and it’s challenging to achieve the global goal of biodiversity conservation. Meanwhile, other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs) advocated internationally still have many limitations, and their adaptability to the actual situation in China is insufficient, which makes it difficult to directly guide the practice of in-situ conservation outside the protected area system in China. China needs to establish an in-situ conservation system that complements the current protected areas and is in line with China’s national conditions as soon as possible. The purpose of this study is to provide a theoretical basis for the practice of in-situ conservation outside the protected areas in China, and to contribute Chinese wisdom and solutions to the global “30×30” biodiversity conservation goals. Perspective: We propose the concept of “conservation compatible land” (CCL), which is a land area or water area with long-term and effective protection of high biodiversity areas by the application of various entities and confirmed by governments at all levels in accordance with the law, and the management mode compatible with protection and utilization. In the future, China’s nature-related land management should include three categories: dedicated nature conservation areas (protected areas and ecological conservation redline), CCL (with biodiversity conservation and other use functions such as agriculture, forestry, fishery and animal husbandry, culture, and living), and sustainable use areas (other production and living space). CCL is conducive to the integration of conservation measures outside the protected area system in China, and forms a multi-level, multi-gradient, coordinated spatial pattern of land use, so that every inch of China’s land can take into account both conservation and development functions. © 2024, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The rank of each staging area was evaluated synthetically with the weighted assignment. The conservation gaps were identified and migratory routes were mapped using the spatial analysis function of ArcGIS 10.2.Result:There was no significant difference in migration parameters between spring and fall season, such as migration distance, staging frequency, staying duration and migration legs. A total of 62 and 104 stopover sites were screened in spring and fall seasons, belonging to 23 and 27 staging units/areas of five staging regions, respectively. Of which, only nine and 13 important stopover sites were identified in spring and fall seasons, including the known stopover sites in Zhalong, Momoge and Xianghai National Nature Reserves(NNRs) and their surrounding areas in the western Songnen Plain, and the Yellow River Delta of the North China Plain. Tumuji NNR of the western Songnen Plain, and Wolong Lake Provincial Nature Reserve and the eastern Keerqin Sandy Land of Liao River Plain were newly recognized. Important, common and temporary stopover sites and resting sites were outside the existing protection system by 36.4%, 37.5%, 40.7% and 72.4%, respectively. In general, the western Songnen Plain is the most important staging areas both in spring and fall. In spring, the Liao River Plain is the second important and the Yellow River Delta is the third important. The two staging regions are in the opposite situation in fall. The stopover sites in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are more important in fall than those in spring, while those in Daxing'an Mountains are the opposite. Conclusion: The migration mode of Siberian Cranes is the energy minimization strategy. The migration route likes the number '8' shape, where western Songnen Plain and Liao River Plain are located in the narrow bottleneck. The crane adopts the facultative migration, using hopping strategy in a large proportion of potential refueling sites and skipping strategy in order to bypass a poor quality stopover site. In the past 20 years, the distribution of stopover sites in China experienced a remarkable change. Liao River Delta was not the important stopover site in recent years, while the eastern wetland of Keerqin Sandy Land in Western Liao River Plain is the newly discovered important staging region. To ensure migration safety and long-term survival of Siberian Cranes, it is suggested to strengthen the supervision of the important stopover sites in the surroundings of current protected areas using the existing management institutions. For the important staging sites with small and scattered wetland area, it is recommended to establish a conservation community, such as the eastern wetland of Keerqin Sandy Land. The interdepartmental and interregional joint protection and management mechanism is proposed for temporary stopover sites and resting sites in North China Plain, and the middle and lower reaches of Yangtze River. © 2020, Editorial Department of Scientia Silvae Sinicae.

Seahorses (Hippocampus spp.) are frequently used as flagship species to help engender support for the creation of small community-managed no-take MPAs in the central Philippines. It is thus vital to determine whether such MPAs actually have an effect on seahorse abundance, reproductive status and size. A survey of seahorses inside and immediately adjacent to eight MPAs, and in four distant unprotected fishing areas, showed these MPAs had no significant effect on seahorse densities; although densities in and near MPAs were higher than in the distant fished sites, seahorse densities did not change over time. Seahorse size did show a marginal reserve effect, with slightly larger seahorses being found inside MPAs as compared to the distant unprotected fishing areas, but, in general, MPAs had little impact on seahorse size. Although MPAs may eliminate local fishing pressure, they may not reduce other threats such as pollution or destructive fishing outside the reserves. Other recovery tools, such as ecosystem-based management, habitat restoration and limits on destructive fishing outside of MPAs, may be necessary to rebuild seahorse populations. The effects of MPAs depend on species, as well as conditions outside the reserve boundaries. MPA management objectives must thus be clearly and realistically articulated to the communities, especially if support for an MPA was derived at least partly to conserve a particular flagship species. © Foundation for Environmental Conservation 2012.",,183-193,,2,39,,Environ.

MPAs are primarily designed for biodiversity conservation, with their success commonly measured using a narrow suite of ecological indicators. However, for MPAs to achieve their biodiversity conservation goals they require community support, which is dependent on wider social, economic and political factors. Despite this, research into the human dimensions of MPAs continues to lag behind our understanding of ecological responses to MPA protection. Here, we explore stakeholders’ perceptions of what MPA success is. We conducted a series of semi-structured interviews and focus groups with a diverse group of stakeholders local to a South Australian MPA. What constitutes success varied by stakeholder group, and stakeholders’ stated understanding of the purpose of the MPA differed from how they would choose to measure the MPA's success. Indeed, all interviewees stated that the primary purpose of the MPA was ecological, yet almost all (>90%) would measure the success of the MPA using social and economic measures, either exclusively or in conjunction with ecological ones. Many respondents also stated that social and economic factors were key to the MPA achieving ongoing/future success. Respondents generated a large range of novel socio-economic measures of MPA success, many of which could be incorporated into monitoring programs for relatively little additional cost. These findings also show that success is not straightforward and what constitutes success depends on who you ask. Even where an MPA's primary ecological purpose is acknowledged by stakeholders, stakeholders are likely to only consider the MPA a success if its designation also demonstrates social and economic benefits to their communities. To achieve local stakeholder support MPAs and associated monitoring programs need to be designed for a variety of success criteria in mind, criteria which reflect the priorities and needs of the adjacent communities as well as national and international conservation objectives. © 2018",,76-86,,,92,,Environ.

This awareness had led to the generation of a significant number of international agreements and conventions aimed at improving marine management and conserving marine ecosystems. In the European Union, this has resulted in the evolution of an extensive array of environmental legislation and policy. In addition, the United Kingdom and its devolved regions have been developing their own policies and legislative tools to advance marine conservation and management. Party to all of these tiers of governance, Northern Ireland has made numerous international, regional and national commitments to protecting and restoring marine ecosystems. Here those commitments are explored in terms of the local political, administrative and governance reality in Northern Ireland. A complex governance structure and lack of interdepartmental co-operation is shown to severely hinder Northern Ireland's ability to meet stated commitments. Underfunding and lack of political will also seriously hamper conservation efforts. Findings indicate that the integration of all marine management functions into a single marine management organisation would greatly facilitate Northern Ireland's progress and that the development of an ecologically coherent network of marine protected areas would go a long way towards fulfilling its conservation commitments. This case study demonstrates some of the hurdles small nations face in meeting their responsibilities under regional and international agreements and highlights the gap between a nations conservation commitments and its successful implementation of policy to fulfil them. © 2012 Elsevier Ltd.",,140-150,,,38,,Mar.

Commercial fishers are often the stakeholder group most directly affected by spatial restrictions associated with MPAs, and the success of MPAs often depends, at least in part, on the behaviours and attitudes of fishers. MPA planning processes that incorporate fishers, and minimize the negative impact of MPA designation on the fishing community, should therefore have a greater chance of success. Here, the incorporation of both quantitative and qualitative fisher-derived data in MPA planning is investigated using strategic conservation planning software and multi-scenario analysis. We demonstrate the use of spatial access priority data as a cost layer, and suggest a process for incorporating fishers' MPA suggestions into planning scenarios in a transparent, but flexible, way. Results show that incorporating fisher-derived data, both quantitative and qualitative, can significantly reduce the cost of MPA planning solutions: enabling the development of MPA network designs that meet conservation targets with less detrimental impact to fishing community. Incorporating fishers and fisher-derived data in MPA planning processes can improve both the efficiency and defensibility of planning outcomes, as well as contribute to reducing potential conflicts between biodiversity conservation and the fishing industry. © 2014 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.",,587-594,,2,72,,ICES J.

Robust data are needed to inform decisions among different planning options, and early inclusion of stakeholder involvement is widely regarded as vital for success. One of the biggest stakeholder groups, and the most likely to be adversely impacted by spatial restrictions, is the fishing community. In order to take their priorities into account, planners need to understand spatial variation in their perceived value of the sea. Here a readily accessible, novel method for quantitatively mapping fishers' spatial access priorities is presented. Spatial access priority mapping, or SAPM, uses only basic functions of standard spreadsheet and GIS software. Unlike the use of remote-sensing data, SAPM actively engages fishers in participatory mapping, documenting rather than inferring their priorities. By so doing, SAPM also facilitates the gathering of other useful data, such as local ecological knowledge. The method was tested and validated in Northern Ireland, where over 100 fishers participated in a semi-structured questionnaire and mapping exercise. The response rate was excellent, 97%, demonstrating fishers' willingness to be involved. The resultant maps are easily accessible and instantly informative, providing a very clear visual indication of which areas are most important for the fishers. The maps also provide quantitative data, which can be used to analyse the relative impact of different management options on the fishing industry and can be incorporated into planning software, such as MARXAN, to ensure that conservation goals can be met at minimum negative impact to the industry. This research shows how spatial access priority mapping can facilitate the early engagement of fishers and the ready incorporation of their priorities into the decision-making process in a transparent, quantitative way. © 2013 Yates, Schoeman.",,,,7,8,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,article; computer program; Conservation of Natural Resources; decision making; environmental protection; Fisheries; fisherman; Geographic Information Systems; human; Humans; Ireland; knowledge; marine environment; participatory management; quantitative analysis; remote sensing; Spatial Access Priority Mapping,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Attempts to maintain and restore marine biodiversity are becoming more spatial, principally through the designation of marine protected areas (MPAs). MPAs compete for space with other uses, and the emergence of new industries, such as marine renewable energy generation, will increase competition for space. Decision makers require guidance on how to zone the ocean to conserve biodiversity, mitigate conflict and accommodate multiple uses. Here we used empirical data and freely available planning software to identified priority areas for multiple ocean zones, which incorporate goals for biodiversity conservation, two types of renewable energy, and three types of fishing. We developed an approached to evaluate trade-offs between industries and we investigated the impacts of co-locating some fishing activities within renewable energy sites. We observed non-linear trade-offs between industries. We also found that different subsectors within those industries experienced very different trade-off curves. Incorporating co-location resulted in significant reductions in cost to the fishing industry, including fisheries that were not co-located. Co-location also altered the optimal location of renewable energy zones with planning solutions. Our findings have broad implications for ocean zoning and marine spatial planning. In particular, they highlight the need to include industry subsectors when assessing trade-offs and they stress the importance of considering co-location opportunities from the outset. Our research reinforces the need for multi-industry ocean-zoning and demonstrates how it can be undertaken within the framework of strategic conservation planning. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.",,201-209,,,152,,J.

So far, the benthic fauna communities are still poorly studied in many water body types, including wetlands in the River Amur basin. In 2015–2018, we conducted for the first time the study of zoobenthos in water bodies located in the Bolonsky State Nature Reserve (Khabarovsky Krai, Russia). We present data on the general taxonomic composition and occurrence of benthic invertebrates in rivers and lakes. In addition, information on the struc-ture, density and biomass of their populations is provided. The environmental assessment of the water bodies of the Protected Area has been performed on the basis of zoobenthos composition. Quantitative samples of benthos were collected using the GR-91 rod bottom scoop from a depth from 50 cm to 400 cm and using the folding benthometer until a 25-cm depth. All sampled were fixed in a 4% formalin solution. Amphibiotic in-sect adults were collected using an entomological net and light traps. These samples were fixed in a 75–96% ethanol solution and processed according to the generally accepted methods. A total of 168 taxa from 15 sys-tematic hydrobiont groups were recorded. The majority of them were Chironomidae (87 species), Trichoptera (18 species) and Ephemeroptera (16 species). Quantitative indicators of organisms were correlated with the seasonal fluctuations in the hydrological regime and the soil type. During floods, the quantitative sampling of zoobenthos was impossible. During a low-water period, studies were available predominantly in small and medium rivers and channels in which entry by boat is possible. In lakes, we found low quantitative values of density and biomass of benthos (297 ± 91 individuals/m2 and 0.1 ± 0.1 g/m2). The average values of density and biomass were respectively 824 ± 267 individuals/m2 and 8.6 ± 8.1 g/m2 in streams, 1298 ± 538 individuals/m2 and 11.2 ± 5.8 g/m2 in small rivers, and 473 ± 76 individuals/m2, and 23.3 ± 9.7 g/m2 in medium rivers. Clean sand was the poorest soil in lakes and rivers. In areas with a slowed flow in springs and channels, the presence of silty-sandy soils with an admixture of detritus provides a higher number of habitats suitable for the aquatic organisms in contrast to the main riverbeds of lowlands. We demonstrated that in water bodies, the conditions favourable for the benthic communities are observed on plant root systems immersed in water along riverbeds, in channels and bays, and on silty sands with a rich admixture of detritus at an average depth of 1.7 m. The density and biomass of zoobenthos varied from 6 individuals/m2 to 25 110 individuals/m2 and from < 0.1 g/ m2 to 11 81.9 g/m2. The average density of benthic populations was 692 ± 119 individuals/m2 and the average biomass – 16.9 ± 5.8 g/m2. High values of benthos density were recorded in the summer period, while high values of the benthos biomass was observed in the spring period. During the vegetative seasons, Chironomidae, Oligochaeta, Mollusca, and Trichoptera dominated in the zoobenthos composition. This is related with their life cycles and the influence of various abiotic factors (floods, current velocity, water temperature, oxygen re-gime, soil nature). We found that the proportion of Mollusca was 89% of the total zoobenthos biomass, while proportions of Oligochaeta and Chironomidae were respectively 60% and 26% of the total density. Higher values of the occurrence frequency were demonstrated for Chironomidae (100%) and Oligochaeta (95%). Hy-dra, Planaria, aquatic mites, Asellidae, Odonata, black flies, Ephydridae, and Coleoptera were rarely recorded (< 10%). Permanent components of the benthic communities were eurybionts and limnobionts belonging to Chironomidae, Oligochaeta and Nematoda, which inhabit preferably channels and sites with a slowed current velocity, namely lakes and mires. The absence of oxyphilic species of Plecoptera, Deuterophlebiidae, and Blephariceridae was characteristic. This is comparable with wetlands around the world. The most interesting records were Amuranodonta boloniensis and Cristaria herculea included in the various-rank Red Data Books, as well as Monodiamesa kamora known only in the Lower Amur River basin. Two Chironomidae species, Het-erotrissocladius simmiensis, Propsilocerus amurensis, have been described for science for the first time on the basis of samples collected in the Bolonsky State Nature Reserve. Finally, Axarus fundorum is a new species in the Russian fauna. According to biological indication data, the water bodies of the Bolonsky State Nature Reserve belong to a clean type. They are characterised by high environmental status and meet the requirements of the European Framework Water Directive (WFD), which is required to create a network of reference targets. The presence of new and threatened species indicates the uniqueness of the wetlands in the Lake Bolon neigh-bourhood and the need for their conservation and further investigations. © 2020, Fund for Support and Development of Protected Areas ""Bear Land"".

During the second part of the XXth century, the decline of traditional activities leads to a gradual fill in the marsh, and, thus, to the loss of sensible species. As early as 1966, the launching of a regional park in the Grande Briere marsh is due to the common work of naturalists and politicians who are conscious of the many threats. The search for a cultural and natural revival of the region becomes the main objective shared by the park and the local population in 1970, and is hence written down in a Charter.

Spatial and multispecies models can be used to investigate the effects of their introduction. An individual-based, spatially explicit, size-structured, multispecies model (known as OSMOSE) is used to investigate the likely consequences of the introduction of three MPAs off the coast of South Africa, individually or in combination. The simultaneous introduction of the MPAs affected varying proportions of the distribution of the modelled species (5-17%) and 12% of the distribution of the whole community. In general, the introduction of the MPAs in the different scenarios resulted in a relative increase in the biomass of large predatory fish and a decrease in the biomass of small pelagic fish. The simulation demonstrates that consideration of trophic interactions is necessary when introducing MPAs, with indirect effects that may be detrimental to some (mainly smaller prey) species. © 2008 International Council for the Exploration of the Sea.

Many Antipatharia are habitat for associates, have extreme longevity and some species can occur beyond 8500 m depth. As they are major constituents of?coral gardens’, which are Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs), knowledge of their distribution and environmental requirements is an important pre-requisite for informed conservation planning particularly where the expense and difficulty of deep-sea sampling prohibits comprehensive surveys. This study uses a global database of Antipatharia distribution data to perform habitat suitability modelling using the Maxent methodology to estimate the global extent of black coral habitat suitability. The model of habitat suitability is driven by temperature but there is notable influence from other variables of topography, surface productivity and oxygen levels. This model can be used to predict areas of suitable habitat, which can be useful for conservation planning. The global distribution of Antipatharia habitat suitability shows a marked contrast with the distribution of specimen observations, indicating that many potentially suitable areas have not been sampled, and that sampling effort has been disproportionate to shallow, accessible areas inside marine protected areas (MPAs). Although 25% of Antipatharia observations are located in MPAs, only 7-8% of predicted suitable habitat is protected, which is short of the Convention on Biological Diversity target to protect 10% of ocean habitats by 2020. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd",,79-86,,,145,,Deep-Sea Res.

Since its accelerated bleaching has attracted enormous attention in 1998, the conservation of coral reef systems has been a significant topic in the Conference of the Parties (COP). To review China’s compliance under CBD, this article explores the following questions: Whether China fulfills its obligations to protect coral reef systems as prescribed under the CBD? What are the challenges for protecting coral reef systems in China by considering the requirements of the CBD? What suggestions are there for improving compliance with the CBD? Methods A comparative method was applied to identify the compliance gap under the CBD. Relevant reports on the changes of coral reef systems in Hainan, Guangxi and Guangdong province at national and provincial levels were explored. The law, regulations, and compliance reports of coral reef protection at national and provincial level were investigated. Results The results indicated that China has adopted many specific measures which have reversed the decline of coral reefs in general. However, there are several problems in its compliance, primarily fragmented legislation, the lack of comprehensive strategies and action plans, insufficient adaptation to climate change, inadequate coordination across departments, ineffective management in marine protected areas, low engagement with local communities, unintegrated standards and norms for supervision, poor monitoring data which could not support effective evaluation, little international cooperation, and low public participation. Suggestions This study suggests that compliance measures should be taken in consistency with the goals and spirits of the CBD, and in consideration of the post-2020 CBD framework. These measures include enhancing domestic legislative framework, comprehensive action plan and capacity to adapt to climate change, strengthening integrated management and coordination, improving the effectiveness in management of MPAs, ensuring better monitoring and data collection, better international cooperation and enhancing public participation. © 2022 Biodiversity Science.",,,,2,30,,Biodivers.

Depending on the improvement of environmental consciousness, new trends appeared and innovation and diversity increased in tourism. In recent years, tourism has been playing a more significant role in the economies of several developing countries, including Turkey. Ecotourism is seen as a tool for conservation and sustainable development. Coastal zone of Black Sea extending along the north and north-west part of the region, however, is a protected zone with regards to its natural values. Integrated ecosystems of forests, coastal zones, mountains, wetlands and dunes have both ecological and economical values for the people living in the arae. An alternative activity, which gives priority to the protection of natural and cultural values, should be improved for the people. In this research, it was aimed to determine ecotourism developments by using SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analysis in north-west Black Sea coast of Turkey. SWOT analysis is a method related to the analysis of the situation of the area in terms of external (opportunities and threats - OT) and internal (strengths, weaknesses - SW) factors. In this study, the ecotourism development of the area located between Bulgaria border and Istanbul, which is placed on the north-west Black Sea coastal zone of Turkey, has been evaluated via SWOT analysis, according to the landscape planning principles. Determination of ecotourism potential in the areas with high eco-tourism potential and formation of a landscape management plan are the issues that have been studied in terms of different perspectives. It is important that a planning be done for the increase of opportunities and strengths determined according to the analysis results. On the other hand, this planning process aims to decrease the weaknesses and threats as well. As a result, natural and cultural features of north-west Black Sea coastal zone of Turkey are suitable for alternative tourism. But the links between tourism, prosperity and sustainability are complex. When eco-tourism is planned well, it provides benefits for providing the sustainability of natural and cultural resources and bringing environmental, economic and social concerns together.",,786-798,,2,14,,J.

Limited by funds, the wetland protected areas should he selected in cost-effective ways. Previous studies attempted to identify priority areas of wetland protection with only biodiversity features. As a result, the protection targets of many reserves overlap, and gaps still exist of the region. Applied with the methodology of Systematic Conservation Planning and the relevant spatial optimization software, we tried to identify wetland areas in need of protection that were more representatively and effectively, and the conservation gaps based on the existing wetland reserves. Two level of conservation objectives were used in this study, we first established a wetland classification scheme of climatic-geomorphological-wetland, which was employed as a coarse-filter for surrogates of wetland biodiversity, 24 types were derived of the region, we also use water birds as fine-filter as a complementary, the costs for protection were considered with the factors of socio-economical, such as road, rail, etc. Currently, the coastal wetland were protected with the highest percentage of 13.03%, after the optimization, it could reach to 53.14%. Palustrine wetland was the most widely distributed, but only 2.72% were protected, it could be 36.35% with our planning. Compared with the wetland protected areas of the region, only the Tuhaimajia river has been well protected, significant gaps were in other catchments. Lacustrine wetland and palustrine wetland gaps were mainly distributed in upstream of Luan river and Yongding river, riverine wetland gaps were in the border of Tangshan and Qinhuangdao. The source of river were main gap areas, and the outside areas of the reserves also presented a significance of protection, such as the Binzhouhaian Wetland Nature Reserve and Yellow River Delta Wetland National Nature Reserve. In consideration of the prominent influences of Xiongan New Area in the future economic development of the region of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, our suggestions were as follows; small-reserves were suggested to established in key rivers of Luan River and coastal areas of Hebei; wetland parks were recommended in the northern Haihe river in face of the dense population and advanced economies; the reserves in the southern Haihe river and Tuhaimajia river should be enlarged and managed more efficiently, as it was the core areas for wetland protection.

We evaluated the spatial use of the marine environment by foraging Magellanic Penguins Spheniscus magellanicus and Imperial Cormorants Phalacrocorax atriceps breeding at a newly designated marine park in Golfo San Jorge, Argentina, to assess the potential spatial conflict between these seabirds and commercial hake and shrimp trawl fisheries. GPS loggers were deployed on 45 adults of both species during the 2006 and 2007 breeding seasons. Distribution of hauls made by hake and shrimp trawlers was obtained from the On-board Observer Program of Chubut Province. Penguin foraging range varied between 25.8 and 120.1 km while cormorant foraging range varied between 1.5 and 68.2 km. Distances travelled to fishing grounds were short for both species (< 4.43 km) and, depending on the season, they spent a significant part of their time at sea within waters used by both fisheries (penguins: 17.9-66.2%; cormorants: 46.0-89.0%). In both years, foraging Magellanic Penguins and Imperial Cormorants showed a clear overlap with operating vessels. The observed foraging patterns of penguins and cormorants suggest a high probability of spatial conflict. Moreover, incidental mortality was regularly recorded in both fisheries, at rates that varied between 0.02 and 0.34 individuals per haul depending on species and fishery. Although one of the goals of the new marine park is the protection of Magellanic Penguin and Imperial Cormorant populations, the defined boundaries do not appear to be adequate for their effective protection. Results suggest the need to re-evaluate the spatial design of the park and/or the definition of management actions in waters outside the park to minimise negative effects on penguins and cormorants.

This study aimed to explore the effects of curculigoside in promoting the osteogenic differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) as well as the underlying mechanism. Methods: ADSCs were treated with curculigoside at different concentrations (0 ?mol/L, 1 ?mol/L, 2.5 ?mol/L, 5 ?mol/L, 10 ?mol/L, and 20 ?mol/L), and cell viability was assessed by CCK-8 assay. Then, the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was determined, and alizarin red S (ARS) staining was performed to measure the extracellular mineralization of curculigoside. Information about protein-chemical interactions is provided by the search tool for interactions of chemicals (STITCH) database. Then, LY294002 was administered to explore the mechanism by which curculigoside promotes the osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs. Western blot assays were performed to assess changes in the expression of osteogenic-related markers and the phosphorylation of PI3K and AKT. Finally, we established an ovariectomized (OVX)-induced osteoporosis mouse model and administered curculigoside to explore the effects of curculigoside in preventing bone loss in vivo. Results: The CCK-8 assay indicated that curculigoside did not induce cytotoxicity at a concentration of 5 ?mol/L after 48 h. The ALP and ARS results revealed that the induced group had higher ALP activity and calcium deposition than the control group. Moreover, the curculigoside group exhibited increased biomineralization, ALP activity, and ARS staining compared to the induced and control groups, and these effects were partially inhibited by LY294002. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis indicated that the target genes of curculigoside were mainly involved in the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. PCR and western blot analysis showed that the expression of RUNX2, ALP, and Osterix was upregulated in curculigoside-treated ADSCs, but this effect was partially reversed by the PI3K inhibitor LY294002. Moreover, the curculigoside-treated group exhibited significantly increased phosphorylation of AKT to P-AKT compared with the osteogenic induction group. After treatment with curculigoside, the mice had a higher bone volume than the OVX mice, suggesting partial protection from cancellous bone loss. In addition, when LY294002 was added, the protective effects of curculigoside could be neutralized. Conclusions: Curculigoside could induce the osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs and prevent bone loss in an OVX model through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. © 2021, The Author(s).",,,,1,16,,J.

The survey aimed to assist proposed future monitoring exercises by defining the geographical extent that should be considered to improve accuracy in species abundance estimates. Results were supplemented using collected indications of elephant presence from prior monitoring exercises, and during this survey. Elephant presence was confirmed up to 8 km from the boundary of the protected core habitat, focussed in: (1) an unfenced zone of the national park, (2) along a road leading from the national park to the Dambwa Forest to the north and (3) along two rivers located to the west (Sinde River) and east (Maramba River) of the core area. Detection probability of elephant presence was high using these methods, and we recommend regular sampling to determine changes in habitat use by elephants, as humans continue to modify land-use patterns. Conservation implications: Identification of elephant ranging behaviour up to 8 km outside of the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park in southern Zambia will assist in managing human-elephant conflict in the area, as well as in assessing this seasonal population’s abundance. © 2017.

The state of California recently implemented a coast-wide network of MPAs, a statewide seafloor mapping program, and ecological characterizations of species and ecosystems targeted for protection by the network. The main goals of this study were to use these data to evaluate how well seafloor features, as proxies for habitats, are represented and replicated across an MPA network and how well ecological surveys representatively sampled fish habitats inside MPAs and adjacent reference sites. Seafloor data were classified into broad substrate categories (rock and sediment) and finer scale geomorphic classifications standard to marine classification schemes using surface analyses (slope, ruggedness, etc.) done on the digital elevation model derived from multibeam bathymetry data. These classifications were then used to evaluate the representation and replication of seafloor structure within the MPAs and across the ecological surveys. Both the broad substrate categories and the finer scale geomorphic features were proportionately represented for many of the classes with deviations of 1-6% and 0-7%, respectively. Within MPAs, however, representation of seafloor features differed markedly from original estimates, with differences ranging up to 28%. Seafloor structure in the biological monitoring design had mismatches between sampling in the MPAs and their corresponding reference sites and some seafloor structure classes were missed entirely. The geomorphic variables derived from multibeam bathymetry data for these analyses are known determinants of the distribution and abundance of marine species and for coastal marine biodiversity. Thus, analyses like those performed in this study can be a valuable initial method of evaluating and predicting the conservation value of MPAs across a regional network. © 2015 Young Carr.",,,,3,10,,PLoS ONE,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Public Library of Science,,,,"animal; Animals; Aquatic Organisms; aquatic species; Article; biodiversity; Biodiversity; California; Conservation of Natural Resources; controlled study; environmental monitoring; Environmental Monitoring; environmental protection; fish; Fisheries; fishery; Fishes; geographic and geological phenomena; geographic distribution; geomorphology; habitat; marine environment; Models, Theoretical; procedures; rock; seafloor; sediment; surface property; theoretical model; United States",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Location: California, USA. Methods: Using generalized additive models, we associated fish species densities and assemblage characteristics with seafloor structure, giant kelp biomass and wave climate and used these associations to predict the distribution and assemblage structure across the study area. We tested the accuracy of these predicted extrapolations using an independent data set. The SDMs were also used to estimate larger scale abundances to compare with other estimates of species abundance (uniform density extrapolation over rocky reef and density extrapolations taking into account variations in geomorphic structure). Results: The SDMs successfully modelled the species-habitat relationships of seven rocky reef-associated fish species and showed that species' densities differed in their relationships with environmental variables. The predictive accuracy of the SDMs ranged from 0.26 to 0.60 (Pearson's r correlation between observed and predicted density values). The SDMs created for the fish assemblage-level variables had higher prediction accuracies with Pearson's r values of 0.61 for diversity and 0.71 for richness. The comparisons of the different methods for extrapolating species densities over a single marine protected area varied greatly in their abundance estimates with the uniform extrapolation (density values extrapolated evenly over the rocky reef) always estimating much greater abundances. The other two methods, which took into account variation in the geomorphic structure of the reef, provided much lower abundance estimates. Main conclusions: Species distribution models that combine geomorphic, oceanographic and biogenic habitat variables can reliably predict spatial patterns of species density and assemblage attributes of temperate reef fishes at spatial scales of 50 m. Thus, SDMs show great promise for informing spatial and ecosystem-based approaches to conservation and fisheries management. © 2015 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,1428-1440,,12,21,,Diversity Distrib.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,abundance estimation; accuracy assessment; BATHYMETRY; BIODIVERSITY; California; CALIFORNIA; DESIGN; environmental factor; fish; generalized additive models; Generalized additive models; HABITAT; KELP; landscape ecology; Macrocystis pyrifera; marine landscape ecology; Marine landscape ecology; marine park; marine protected areas; Marine protected areas; MARINE PROTECTED AREAS; marine spatial management; Marine spatial management; nearshore environment; NETWORK; Pisces; population distribution; reef; RESPONSES; spatial planning; species distribution models; Species distribution models; species diversity; species richness; species-area relationship; temperate environment; temperate reef fishes; Temperate reef fishes; United States; VEGETATION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Therefore, only very few river basins or substantial parts of them have yet been assigned as dedicated sites (nature reserves, parks, etc.). Commonly, these sites occur in a scattered pattern within the riverscape and belong to different administrative units, which makes coordinated conservation and management difficult. Moreover, access to documented results is limited, and the practical experience of site managers remains an unexploited source of knowledge. Here, we compare two sites, the Loire valley (with a large zone protected by a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Natura 2000 sites network, and a French Regional Natural Park, which are partially overlapping) and the Dordogne watershed (entirely belonging to the first UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of this kind and a French Public Basin Establishment). The targets concerning conservation and sustainable management of these sites differ, however, they all focus on cultural and ecological sustainability. Combining reports and interviews with the respective site managers with literature back searches, and analyzing these data with case study and content analysis methods, we addressed the following questions: (1) What are the priority management issues, including threats that impact the site from outside, and how are they tackled? (2) Who are the stakeholders and what are their interrelationships? (3) What are the dynamics of socio-ecological systems related to riverscapes? (4) How to conserve and manage riverscapes with socio-ecological approaches? and (5) What are the best management practices from the Loire River Valley and Dordogne basin cases that can be harnessed in other riverscapes? We show that the Loire River Valley and Dordogne River basin present positive examples for a transdisciplinary socio-ecological approach to conserving and managing riverscapes, integrating diverse stakeholder knowledge in participatory decision-making, recognizing the natural character of the river, and coupling social and hydrological systems. The greatest achievement of the site managers is that they have built up trust and found feasible solutions for satisfying the different interests of diverse stakeholders. Ingenuity and perseverance, combined with excellent moderation skills, were the most important characteristics leading to success. The overall target of this paper is to evidence problems and their solutions concerning the management of dedicated sites that are connected to rivers, to encourage the creation of further sites of this type, and to facilitate cooperation between different types of dedicated sites. © 2022 by the authors.",,,,24,14,,Sustainability,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: MDPI,,,,conservation management; content analysis; decision making; designated conservation area; DIVERSITY; Dordogne Basin; FLOODPLAIN; France; FRESH-WATER BIODIVERSITY; IMPACTS; knowledge; KNOWLEDGE; Loire River; OPPORTUNITIES; participatory approach; PATTERNS; protected area; QUALITATIVE CONTENT-ANALYSIS; RHINE; river culture; river management; riverscape management; socio-ecological system; stakeholder; THREATS; UNESCO; watershed,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Here, a new approach is demonstrated to identify surface water bodies as priority refuges for efficient conservation management of freshwater biodiversity in intermittent stream networks. Recently developed models of surface water extent and daily streamflow were used to represent spatio-temporal variations in hydrological connectivity and surface water persistence within river networks of eastern Australia over a 107-yr period. Using this information, systematic conservation planning was applied to prioritize aquatic areas for conservation of 25 fish species under two scenarios. One scenario identified priority refuges to complement those already occurring in protected areas, whereas the other did not consider protected area status. The priority networks identified concentrated on the main stems of river catchments where surface water was more likely to be persistent and aquatic refuges were more likely to be connected, but also included headwaters for rare fish species. All three set conservation targets for the 25 fish species can be met in the best solution of priority networks. Although the second scenario achieved the targets with a smaller size of priority network overall, it required more new aquatic refuges and was thus less efficient than the first scenario. The newly developed datasets are useful for freshwater conservation prioritization because they account for hydrological variability of intermittent streams. The systematic prioritization approach applied is transferable to other regions and freshwater taxa to identify aquatic refuges for biodiversity conservation within intermittent stream systems. © 2022 The Authors.

However, due to the sovereignty of national boundaries, conservation plans between neighboring countries are often uncoordinated. Against the backdrop of impending environmental changes, transboundary mountain ecosystems and biodiversity face significant threats. This study employs the MaxEnt model, leveraging data on climate, topography, landscape, and human activities to predict potential distribution areas for mammals and birds, aiming to identify biodiversity hotspots (BHs) and analyze their distribution mechanisms in the Altai Mountains transboundary region (AMTR). Results indicate that BHs are primarily located near the Russian-Mongolian border, significantly influenced by climate variables, elevation, and human activities. The study also highlights changes in key habitat types (KHTs), particularly transitions between grassland and bareland, and the impact of climate-driven land cover change on the distribution of BHs. Furthermore, the research evaluates the coverage of protected areas and emphasizes the importance of identifying key biodiversity areas (KBAs) and establishing transboundary corridors for enhanced species protection and future environmental change adaptation. The findings underscore the necessity of transboundary cooperation and focused strategies for biodiversity conservation to mitigate the adverse effects of climate change and human activities. © 2024 Yuan et al.

Presently, the development of interpretation systems is limited due to a lack of research of the spatiotemporal patterns of interpretation resources in China’s protected areas, and the lack of corresponding field investigation methods. As a result, the interpretation system does not meet the needs of the public’s understanding of nature and fails in fulfilling environmental education objectives. Therefore, we aimed to study the spatiotemporal patterns of interpretation resources of Reed Lake in the Jiuzhaigou National Nature Reserve. Methods: We summarized six selection criteria of interpretation resources, as well as investigated and monitored the regional interpretation resources in the Reed Lake interpretation trail in Jiuzhaigou. Based on the attributes, meanings, and distribution characteristics of interpretation resources, interpretation themes were designed using the thematic interpretation method. Results: We found 195 interpretation resource types, including: 100 types of plants and fungi, 62 types of animals, 5 ecosystem types, 7 types of geology and hydrology, 2 types of astronomical phenomena and climate, and 19 types of cultural resources. Spatially, plant, fungus, animal, and ecosystem resources were mainly distributed in the inner part of the trail. The cultural interpretation resources were more distributed in the outer part of the trail. In time, the number of interpretation resources was highest in summer and autumn, and less in winter and spring. Furthermore, the number of animal, plant, and fungus interpretation resources had obvious seasonality. Eight interpretation themes were designed to provide references of interpretation content for the organization. Conclusion: Exploring meanings inherent in interpretation resources and understanding their distributions are critical for delivering the uniqueness and importance of the resources to the public, and thus should be incorporated into the planning of interpretation systems.

Economic development is increasing leading to more disturbances and pressures on Arctic wildlife. Identifying areas that support higher levels of predator abundance and biodiversity is important for the implementation of targeted conservation measures across the Arctic. Location: Primarily Canadian Arctic marine waters but also parts of the United States, Greenland and Russia. Methods: We compiled the largest data set of existing telemetry data for marine predators in the North American Arctic consisting of 1,283 individuals from 21 species. Data were arranged into four species groups: (a) cetaceans and pinnipeds, (b) polar bears Ursus maritimus (c) seabirds, and (d) fishes to address the following objectives: (a) to identify abundance hotspots for each species group in the summer–autumn and winter–spring; (b) to identify species diversity hotspots across all species groups and extent of overlap with exclusive economic zones; and (c) to perform a gap analysis that assesses amount of overlap between species diversity hotspots with existing protected areas. Results: Abundance and species diversity hotpots during summer–autumn and winter–spring were identified in Baffin Bay, Davis Strait, Hudson Bay, Hudson Strait, Amundsen Gulf, and the Beaufort, Chukchi and Bering seas both within and across species groups. Abundance and species diversity hotpots occurred within the continental slope in summer–autumn and offshore in areas of moving pack ice in winter–spring. Gap analysis revealed that the current level of conservation protection that overlaps species diversity hotspots is low covering only 5% (77,498 km                             2                             ) in summer–autumn and 7% (83,202 km                             2                             ) in winter–spring.

One of the better known efforts - pioneered in the Pacific Northwest of the United States - is a hierarchical ecological framework that separates biodiversity into compositional, structural, and functional attributes at the genetic, population, community-ecosystem, and landscape levels of organization. We present an adaptation of this terrestrial framework consistent with the ecological function of marine environments. Our adaptation differs in its treatment of the community and ecosystem levels of organization. In our marine framework, the community level denotes predominantly the biotic community components of biodiversity, and the ecosystem level - consistent with marine terminology - denotes predominantly physical and chemical components. The community and ecosystem levels are further separated into those attributes based on ecological structures such as depth or species richness and those based on ecological processes such as water motion or succession. The distinction between the biotic (genetic, population, and community) and abiotic (ecosystem) is required because the biological components of biodiversity such as competition or predation are often more difficult to observe than the abiotic components such as upwellings, substratum, or temperature. As a result, efforts to conserve marine biodiversity are often dependent on the observable abiotic (ecosystem) components, which can be used as surrogates for the identification and monitoring of biotic (community) components. We used our hierarchical framework to identify and suggest how conservation strategies could be implemented in marine environments depending on whether existing data are to be used or new data are to be collected.",,1327-1334,,5,14,,Conserv.

Our objective was to determine with camera trapping, which species of medium or large terrestrial mammals (?1 kg in weight), and with what frequency, visited the plots 12 years after the establishment of the experiment. Methods: Camera traps were used in 18 of the 24 plots. Two censuses were carried out, one in the rainy season of 2018 and the other in the dry season of 2019. The number of species and the independent photographic records of each one were determined for each treatment (plots excluded from cattle: a) with no addition of plants -natural succession-; with tree plantations, b) dispersed by wind, and c) dispersed by animals) and each sampling season. Key results: The total sampling effort was 290 camera trap days. For the rainy season, 12 photographs and four videos of opossum (Didelphis spp.), nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus) and Mexican agouti (Dasyprocta mexicana) were obtained. For the dry season, the armadillo was recorded in 10 photographs and five videos. There were few records of medium-sized mammals, compared to photo trapping in conserved forest in the area and only in seven of the 18 sampled plots. Overall, there were more records in plantations than in natural succession, and this was more evident in the rainy season. Conclusions: The response of medium-sized terrestrial mammals to restoration seems to be slower than recorded for other faunal groups (e.g., bats).

In order to minimize such conflicts, the evaluation of the interaction between fishery and the preservation objectives of the Natura 2000 sites is compulsory and extremely important. The assessment of the environmental impact is a key tool of the EU environmental legislation, which is used in evaluating the effect of human activities on the ecosystem. In addition, the involvement of all interested stakeholders in the development of the fishery on the Romanian littoral and in environmental protection will be the key to success in finding viable co-management solutions in the Natura 2000 sites.

However, knowledge of the distribution and community structure of species in mid-range trophic levels (e.g. macroinvertebrates) is lacking in most marine ecosystems. Our study aimed to examine the spatial distribution and community-level biogeographic patterns of common kelp forest–rocky reef macroinvertebrates in Southern California and to evaluate the effects of environmental gradients on these communities. Quantitative SCUBA surveys were used to estimate macroinvertebrate densities at 92 sites from 2008–2012. Non-metric multidimensional scaling was used to evaluate spatial patterns of macroinvertebrate communities among Regions. We found that kelp forest–rocky reef macroinvertebrate communities are distinct among different island and mainland regions, and their community patterns exhibited a strong relationship with an environmental gradient (i.e. sea surface temperature) even after controlling for geographic distance between sites. High abundances of urchin species (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus and Strongylocentrotus franciscanus) were strong drivers of regional differences. Macroinvertebrate community patterns were driven by characteristic species that were typically more prevalent at warmer or colder sites. Our results provide the first quantitative analysis of macroinvertebrate community structure within the California kelp forest ecosystem. We also describe the distribution and abundance of 92 conspicuous kelp forest-rocky reef macroinvertebrates among nine pre-defined Regions. This study provides important preliminary information on these macroinvertebrate species that will be directly useful to inform management of invertebrate fisheries and spatial protection of marine resources. © 2016 Blackwell Verlag GmbH",,770-785,,4,37,,Mar.

In addition in the management of protected areas, the role of wildfire should be incorporated, something that was ignored in the past and led to catastrophic wildfires. The Black Sea is a region that wildfires in the protected areas are expected to increase. This has to do with the abandonment of rural areas and the higher temperatures, especially during summer, due to climate change. Interesting is also the fact that some countries of the region have extensive experience while other do not have neither the experience nor the necessary infrastructures to face large wildfires. A transboundary collaboration would be very beneficial to the countries with limited experiences and capacities to suppress wildfires. The objective of this study is to be proactive by developing innovative tools to help suppress wildfires and enhancing the knowledge on wildfires and protected areas. The innovative tools included 4 different research activities and products. Firstly, an online Digital Geodatabase for the six pilot areas was developed. Next forest fire fuels and maps were developed while a forest fire behavior model was run to create the overall fire risk maps for the pilot areas. To estimate water resources and watershed streamflows the hydrologic model SWAT was validated and calibrated for the pilot areas. The final activities included a multi-criteria decision analysis to select the optimal location of the water reservoirs and the use of spatial analyst to provide the optimal routes to reach reservoirs by the fire vehicles. To enhance the responsible agency personnel along with stakeholders knowledge of the region, a Neighborhood Network with regular quarterly meetings was established. Participants for all six project countries were present in the meetings. Overall, new tool that will enhance wildfire suppression in protected area were developed while the awareness of wildfire danger and the importance of protected areas increased. © 2016 Eastern Macedonia and Thrace Institute of Technology.",,108-114,,2,9,,J.

Nevertheless, the implementation process of marine protected areas (MPAs) can generate unexpected outcomes and fail to reach its objectives in addressing communities’ challenges. Therefore, it is crucial to have a better understanding of how MPAs influence the socioeconomic aspects of the coastal communities. This paper describes the protocol to conduct a systematic review which aims to explore and review the evidence that reflects the outcomes of marine site protection on poverty reduction in terms of economic and material living standards among the coastal communities in Southeast Asia. The review question is “What are the outcomes of marine site protection implementation on poverty in terms of material and economic living standards of coastal communities in Southeast Asia?”. Methods: The systematic review uses rigorous search strategies and selection methods based on pre-defined eligibility criteria to identify and examine published journal articles and grey literature that are available on the review topic. Relevant studies and grey literature will be extracted from a recent systematic map of the evidence documenting the effect of marine or coastal nature conservation or natural resource management activities on human well-being in Southeast Asia. We will search online databases including Web of Science Core Collection, Ovid Medline®, Environmental Complete, Scopus, as well as Google Scholar and sources of grey literature for any additional literature available since the evidence map was created. For this review, the populations of interest are from coastal communities in the Southeast Asia region. Comparators to marine site protection will be no intervention and/or pre-MPA implementation. The economic and material living standards, which are the poverty domains, will be evaluated as outcomes. Once we have identified relevant literature, we will perform a critical appraisal, data extraction, and synthesis appropriate to the type of literature found, to investigate the effect of marine site protection on poverty reduction. © 2022, The Author(s).",,,,1,11,,Environ.

Both ex situ and in situ conservation approaches should be deployed to ensure CWR availability for use. This paper aims to (a) create a regional database of occurrence records for the 441 priority CWRs in the Fertile Crescent, (b) identify CWR-rich areas in the Fertile Crescent, (c) recommend locations to implement genetic reserves intended for CWRs active in situ conservation and (d) undertake ex situ and in situ conservation gap analyses. The study area comprises Jordan, Syria, Palestine/Israel, Lebanon, Turkey and Iraq. Occurrence records of the 441 priority CWR within the Fertile Crescent were gathered from herbaria, gene banks and online databases. Gaps in the current ex situ and in situ conservation were identified. Hotspots of CWR diversity were identified, and complementary analysis was carried out to identify areas for in situ conservation using DIVA-GIS. Then proposed genetic reserves were compared with the existing protected areas to establish genetic reserve areas whether within or outside the protected areas. A total of 23,878 occurrence records were collated for 441 CWR priorities. The first priority grid square is located in Syria near Tal Kalakh City, close to the Lebanese border from the north. The second priority site is located in Turkey’s Izmir Province near Kemal Atatürk Mahallesi. The third priority site is located in Turkey’s Sahinbey/Gaziantep Province. The ex situ gap analysis revealed that of the 441 taxa, 134 (30%) CWRs are totally absent from the current gene banks collections. Only 307 (70%) CWRs are represented in gene banks, and, of these taxa, 252 (57%) of them have less than 10 accessions in gene banks. A total of 353 taxa were categorised as a high priority for collection and conservation; 23 taxa were categorised as a medium priority and 41 taxa as a low priority. However, 24 taxa were identified that did not require urgent collection (see Supplementary Table 7). The most important areas for a further collection of ex situ conservation are located in the west and south of Turkey across the Mediterranean seashore, north of Lebanon and west of Syria (in Lattakia and Tartus Governorate), across the border between Turkey and Syria and northern Iraq. Ten genetic reserves are recommended in the Fertile Crescent for CWR conservation. The results and methods used will help meet the conservation targets of CWR in the Fertile Crescent; they will also help achieve global food security. © 2020, The Author(s).",,693-709,,2,68,,Genet.

This technique is able to increase the percentage of living coral cover which becomes new habitat for reef fish and in turn increases the number of species and individuals of fish associated with the coral reefs. This study aimed to determine the succession rate of reef fish at a rehabilitated coral area using aforementioned technique. Observation was carried out a month before implementing the rehabilitation procedure (February 2018), continued with monthly survey from April to June 2018 using Underwater Fish Visual Census Method for collecting data on 60 m2 rehabilitated area. The observation on reef fish community structure used parameters such as abundance, dominance, diversity and uniformity indices. The result showed increment, yet slightly fluctuative, on reef fish community structure over observation period. In February, five families, 11 species and 39 individuals of reef fish were recorded; in April, eight families with 17 species and 235 individuals were observed; in May seven families, 20 species and 163 individuals sighted; eventually nine families, 23 species, and 263 individuals were recorded on last observation in June. This study indicated that the combination of coral transplants and artificial reef accommodate an advanced succession stage for reef fish community at the rehabilitated coral area. The observation detected presence and absence of certain fish species on monthly basis, with the overall data hinted a moderate diversity, uniform species similarity and no dominant species in the rehabilitated area. © 2020, BIOFLUX SRL.

Our goal was to demonstrate that the Australian pine’s presence reduces the cover and vegetation diversity of the coastal dune’s native species. We used ten sampling plots (100 m2 each), five of which included Australian pine (invaded), and five that did not (non-invaded). We recorded the number of different plant species and their cover, height, and diameter in each plot. We found 43 plant species belonging to 40 genera, from which 37 species were found in the non-invaded plots, while only 26 plant species were present in the invaded ones. The vegetation density (3547 ± 709 individuals ha-1) and the cover (65%) in the plots that lacked Australian pine were higher compared to the density (2785 ± 802 individuals ha-1) and cover (35%) of the plots that included it. According to our analyses, Australian pine presence negatively influenced the species composition and abundance of the native species. Moreover, we found significant differences in the native plant diversity between the invaded and non-invaded plots. Our results demonstrated that invasive species, such as the Australian pine, negatively affected the native plant community in the coastal dune because it constrained its community structure. © Zaldívar-Cruz et al.",,131-146,,1,13,,Manag.

Unique hypersaline environments, such as the Ojo de Liebre Lagoon, are underexplored in terms of their bacterial and chemical diversity, representing a potential source for new bio-active compounds with pharmacological properties. Actinobacteria are one of the most diverse and prolific taxonomic bacterial groups in terms of marine bioactive compounds. This study aimed to identify the culturable actinobacterial community inhabit-ing the Lagoon, as well as to test their potential as new sources of anticancer compounds with pharmacological potential. A selective isolation approach focused on spore-forming bacteria from 40 sediment samples generated a culture collection of 64 strains. The 16S rRNA gene analyses identified three phyla in this study, the Actinobacteria, Firmicutes and Proteobacteria, where the phylum Actinobacteria dominated (57%) the microbial community profiles. Within the Actinobacteria, nine different genera were isolated including the Actinomadura, Micromonospora, Nocardiopsis, Plantactinospora and Streptomyces sp. We observed seasonal differences on actinobacteria recovery. For instance, Micromonospora strains were recovered during the four sampling seasons, while Arthrobacter and Pseudokineococcus were only isolated in February 2018, and Blastococcus, Rhodococcus and Streptomyces were uniquely isolated in June 2018. Ethyl acetate crude extracts derived from actinobacte-rial cultures were generated and screened for cytotoxic activity against six cancer cell lines. Strains showed promising low percentages of viability on lung (H1299), cervical (SiHa), colon (Caco-2) and liver (HepG2) cancer lines. Molecular networking results suggest many of the metabolites produced by these strains are unknown and they might harbour novel chemistry.

Yet studies that empirically assess the effects of BPs on social-ecological outcomes (e.g., fishers' catches, revenues, and level of support towards management measures) remain limited. This study aimed to assess the effects of adopting BPs on catch per unit of effort (CPUE), revenue per unit of effort (RPUE) and small-scale fishers' perceptions in two Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in Campania, Italy (Santa Maria di Castellabate (CAS-MPA) and Regno di Nettuno (NET-MPA)). Two BPs were implemented and tested in the two MPAs: i) five selective gears with three different mesh/hook sizes and ii) a participatory approach to increase dialogue between fishers and managers. The results from 36 surveys with small scale fishers and 158 SSF operations monitored using photo-sampling and image analysis techniques (between 2020 and 2022) are presented. Analyses of landings showed that significant differences in CPUE and RPUE between mesh/hook sizes were found in a limited number of cases (i.e., combination of fishing gears used in the 2 MPAs). Significant but divergent effects were found on CPUE in the two MPAs for gillnet used to target amberjack (GNA) only. RPUE was significantly higher in the NET-MPA when adopting the largest mesh size for GNA and the largest hook size for bottom longlines (BLL). When analyzing perceptions, fishers generally reported that the BPs adopted had a positive impact on their revenues, improved their relationship with MPA managers and increased their support for the MPA. In addition, eight stakeholder focus groups were held which helped investigators better understand the context, feedback the data gathered from the research and open up dialogue between the relevant stakeholders. The study concluded that increasing mesh/hook sizes, within the range tested here, does not negatively impact fishers’ revenues, while likely improving the status of target populations. Moreover, increasing dialogue between fishers and decision-makers can generate more positive perceptions towards the MPA and improve mutual understanding, helping to reconcile biodiversity conservation with human wellbeing for SSF. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,258,,Ocean Coast.

The objective of this study was to determine environmental changes as a result of soil use, evaluating physical and chemical characteristics of the water of the drainage network in watersheds. The study was conducted to determine the effects of soil use in watersheds with first order streams, related with management practices of water quality, according to the strategic importance for the supplying source. Watersheds are predominantly covered by sugar cane, reforested with Pinus and native forest. Temperature (TşC), pH, electrical conductivity (EC) and total dissolved solids (TDS) were the parameters determined in the headwaters. Dissolved oxygen (DO) and turbidity (T) were obtained in the lab. The majority of variables and factors were explained by changes in soil use associated with management practices. Two factors resulting from the multivariate analysis showed direct correlation with SDT, CE and pH variables, which shows surface runoff with possible water nitrification of a watershed planted with sugarcane. The second factor showed direct correlation between TCş and T variables, while both were negatively correlated with DO, which shows the seasonality effect on one of the watersheds reforested with Pinus. The results highlight management practices in conservation and maintenance planning of forested areas surrounding headwaters as indicators for higher quality of natural water. © 2015, Universidade Estadual Paulista - UNESP.

Additionally, the aim of this project is to tackle their environmental vulnerability by strengthening the potential of the Protected Areas in biodiversity, ecosystems and ecosystem services conservation. This is expected to be addressed by maintaining it through their transnational networking located in the European Adriatic-Ionian Macro-Region. New information The aim of this research is: 1) to characterise the habitats and ecosystems involved in the coastal-marine protected areas considered; 2) to set a biodiversity baseline; 3) to understand what current ecosystems' conditions are; 4) to build up a transnational biomonitoring programme of target species and habitats and 5) to assess their response to pilot actions. To do so, a transnational inventory of species, habitats, ecosystems and ecosystem services was established, starting with the seven coastal-marine protected areas involved in the project. Data collection was carried out using different sources of information: scientific literature, officially available data from NATURA 2000 Standard Data Forms, checklists from local biomonitoring programmes, personal observations and citizen science, historical maps and data from new in-field analyses. Data were filled in the transnational biodiversity geo-databases according to the NATURA 2000 standards about habitat features, species protection level and species features. The presence of alien species (non-indigenous species, NIS) was also acknowledged and references about data collection were provided in the databases according to the Darwin Core standards. © $$ Zangaro F et al.

The increasing anthropogenic pressure to which these estuaries are subject has caused a reduction in their natural capital stock. Therefore, the application of a pragmatic and rational ecosystem-based management approach to sustainably manage the multiple ecosystem services provided by this ecosystem is necessary. The aim of our study is to present an approach that combines prospective scenarios with habitat-based perspective to assess the supply capacity of ecosystem services, plus determine the impact of protected areas in an urbanized tropical estuary. The current situation and two scenarios were generated to evaluate the capacity of habitats to supply ecosystem services. This type of assessment will allow the decision makers to visualize the effect of their choices or the occurrence of events which might produce significant changes in the estuary. Thus, over time, measures can be taken to sustain the supply of ecosystem services. We determined that the establishment of protected areas have a positive impact; however, the effect is not the same for all of them.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of the MPA network in the Abrolhos Bank (Brazil) in relation to the FD of fish fauna. Underwater visual censuses were carried out in no-take, partially protected and unprotected zones. We used FD metrics to assess the MPA network in terms of FD in each zone.

From fishers' information, we determined the Use Value of the main target species and proposed a Fisheries Functional Vulnerability Index (FFVI), which can indicate management priorities for the species at a local level. The results showed that MPAs maintained higher FD, especially in no-take areas. Two no-take sites showed significant functional divergence values, while one no-take site and one partially protected site showed greater functional richness than unprotected sites. A total of 23 target species accounted for 56% of the functional hypervolume. The FFVI indicated the most vulnerable species.

In Mesoamerica, the Tehuacán-Cuicatlán Valley (TCV) harbours a high biodiversity with archaeological and ethnoecological evidence of its use by people inhabiting the area since at least 12,000 B.P. It is recognized as one of the most ancient areas of agriculture in the Americas, and a broad spectrum of management practices aimed to ensure the availability of desirable plants has been documented, but it has not been analysed for animals. This study aimed to investigate the use and management practices directed to wild animals along current settlements within the TCV and neighbouring areas. Methods: We conducted an extensive search, review and analysis of documental sources for the period between 1967 and 2018. We found 38 documents providing information about the presence of animal species and 15 describing their use and/or management. We included our own observations from four case studies among the Ixcatec, Cuicatec, Nahua and Mestizo people, as well as from regional studies of biodiversity. We used unconstrained multivariate data analysis to describe the management typology of the animals in the region. Results: Hitherto, 652 vertebrate species and 765 species of insects have been recorded in this area; and until present, 107 wild animal species have been reported to be used in 11 use-type categories, mostly for food (65.42%), ornamental (27.52%) and medicinal (21.10%) purposes by the Nahua, Cuicatec, Popolocan, Ixcatec, Mazatec and Mestizo people. Their extraction entails manual capture and gathering as well as hunting and trapping strategies, some of them involving planning in time or space and communitarian regulations; in addition, relocation actions and care in captivity were recorded. Nearly 178 of the species distributed in the region with no reports of local use are used in other localities of Mesoamerica. Ethnozoological information is still lacking for the Mixtec, Chinantec and Chocholtec people in the area. Conclusions: Wild fauna is still a valuable resource for the inhabitants of the TCV. Animals are obtained through extractive practices, which vary from one another in their qualitative attributes. With this work, we provide a context for further research priorities on fauna management in a region of high biocultural significance. © 2020 The Author(s).",,,,1,16,,J.

From 2012 to 2015, we performed a census and an ecological study for this gastropod mollusc in the Zembra Archipelago National Park in Tunisia, where a large population still remains. In 1986, a total of 20,000 individuals were estimated, with 0.7?ind/m2, 4.4?cm adult mean size and low recruitment rate. In 2009, the estimated population reached 38,559 individuals with 2.65?ind/m2, 5.42?cm adult mean size and high recruitment rate. During the present work, 43,790 individuals were estimated in 2012, 27,359 in 2013, 33,170 in 2014 and 40,404 in 2015, with an average density ranging from 0.1 to 8.5 individuals per square metre, but reaching as many as 25?ind/m2 on some shores. This makes the archipelago one of the most important Mediterranean ‘hot spots’ for P. ferruginea, as it has a large and well-conserved population of this species. Variability of the population size is influenced by various biotic and abiotic factors, but is principally impacted by poaching of the species. The poachers target individuals larger than 6?cm in length, and the sex ratio study has shown that over 70% of individuals become females at that size. In addition, high recruitment rates were recorded in 2012 and 2013, but these decreased in 2014 and 2015, although population numbers show the opposite pattern. Moreover, growth rate is low and P. ferruginea may need many years to reach a large adult size. The loss of reproductive potential due to poaching inevitably causes a significant imbalance in the limpet population. Our results indicate the importance of the National Park for P. ferruginea and underline the need for this species to be protected and monitored over a long period to provide the most appropriate management measures. © 2016 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.",,917-931,,9,12,,Mar.

Although this vegetation has been studied for over a century, a complete phytosociological survey is still needed. This lack of knowledge makes its spatial delimitation and the establishment of efficient conservation strategies particularly difficult. The main goals of this study were to classify these forests and assess their current forest cover and to better define the extent of the Espinal phytogeographic province in Córdoba region, central Argentina. Study area: Espinal Phytogeographic Province in Córdoba region, central Argentina (ca. 101,500 km2). Methods: We sampled 122 stands following the principles of the Zürich-Montpellier School of phytosociology; relevés were classified through the ISOPAM hierarchical analysis. The extent of the Espinal phytogeographic province was established by overlaying previous vegetation maps, and a map showing the current distribution of forest patches was constructed based on a supervised classification of Landsat images. Results: Four woody vegetation types of seasonally dry subtropical forest were identified based on the fidelity and the abundance of diagnostic species: (1) Aspidosperma quebracho-blanco forest; (2) Zanthoxylum coco forest; (3) Geoffroea decorticans forest; and (4) Prosopis caldenia forest. These vegetation types were segregated along gradients of temperature and precipitation seasonality and soil-texture and sodium content. The remaining forest patches represent 3.43% of the extent of the Espinal province in Córdoba region of which only 1.05% is represented in protected areas. Conclusions: We present a classification of the Espinal forest based on a complete floristic survey. Despite the dramatic forest loss reported, our results show that some forest patches representative of the Espinal are still likely to be found in the area. However, urgent measures should be taken to establish new protected natural areas in order to preserve the last remaining forest patches. Copyright Sebastián R. Zeballos et al.",,87-102,,,1,,Veg.

Land use changing trend assessment is a process that helps better understanding of interactions between humans and their environment This is however more important in areas of greater ecological values such as wetlands. Therefore in order to conserve and manage wetland resources, it is important to monitor wetlands and their adjacent land uses. Using remote sensing is one of the appropriate and exact ways of this monitoring. Wetlands are transitional lands between terrestrial and aquatic systems that provide many goods and services, including flood water retention, water quality maintenance, wildlife habitat, and soil erosion control. The overall objective of the Ramsar Convention, signed in 1971, is the conservation and wise use of wetlands by national action and international cooperation as a means to achieve sustainable development. But wetlands are being overwhelmed more than other natural ecosystems mainly due to adjacent land use changes resulting from inefficiency of environmental regulations from one side and reduction in the quality of wetlands due to various factors and mainly pollution. Anzali Wetland has also been the victim of extensive land use changes in adjacent areas and the entrance of heavy loads of sediments and pollutants, which have led to serious degradations. The assumption of this research is that the Anzali wetland has undergone changes in the period of investigation that have ended in its degradation. Also the presence of incompatible land uses to protection in the adjacent areas is a potential threat to this water resource. Since understanding the trend of these changes and degradations is a key to achieve a successful management program for this valuable ecosystem, in this research, by interpretation of satellite images of the area in a period of 10 years, the trend of changes in this wetland is investigated One similar mentionable research is done by Qulin et al (2003) who estimated the amount of biomass in Poyang wetland and its adjacent protected areas in China, using satellite images of Landsat -7. They used onscreen digitizing by false color composition of 2-3-4 bands of ETM+ sensor. In another similar research done in China, changes in water quality and landscape patterns of major wetlands in Beijing have been investigated by the use of satellite images and field survey. In another research done in South Africa, the number, area, distance and changes of permanent wetlands have been studied using satellite images related to 1986 to 2002. In Iran, Jamalzad (1998) determined the Anzali wetland boundary by satellite images and sampled the concentration of Chlorophyll A and some of the pollutants and mapped the sensitivity of different parts of this wetland using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Anzali wetland is Located in an area of 15,000 hectares near the northern port city of ar Anzali in Gilan Province. It is one of the few Iranian wetlands which have been registered as an international wetland in the 1975 Ramsar Convention. Anzali wetland complex consists of eastern, western, central, Selke and Siah Keshim sections which are distinct from some aspects. Its registered area in Ramsar Convention includes Selke protected area and some of the various dikes located in its basin. The wetland's open water surface area has been once estimated to be more than 58 square kilometers. Anzali wetland is located in 37° 28' N and 49° 25' E and 11 rivers and 30 streams discharge to it after irrigating and draining the farms located in its basin. Researches indicate that this wetland is in a eutrophic condition and if the present trend continues in future, it will dry out. The overall natural and anthropogenic factors affecting this wetland can be summarized as fluctuations of the Caspian Sea level, the entrance of sediments and pollution, the extension of agricultural land uses and the presence of invasive species. Materials and methods In this research, land cover changes of Anzali wetland have been investigated using Landsat 4, 5 and 7 satellite images. Firstly, images were geo-referenced and spatially corrected. After that land cover types were derived using two different methods of unsupervised classification for separating water from land and on-screen digitizing for distinguishing other land cover types by false color composites. The following formula was used to unsupervised classification: If (( B4 > B2) and ( B5> B2)) then 0 else 255 In order to investigate the changes in water body of the wetland, parameters such as total area, wetland's width, length, and distance to sea shore were investigated. Two sets of color composites were used to distinguish different land cover types of the wetland, i.e. RGB= 543 for water and built areas, and RGB= 457 for plant physiognomy. Different classes of land cover types, namely water, mud, grass and shrubs were identified. After preparing land cover maps of the area, accuracy assessment was carried out using error matrix. Finally different land cover types' areas were compared and the trends of their changes were investigated. Table 1 shows the results of change investigation in water body characteristics of the wetland, which is derived from water-land distinction formula method. TABLE PRESENTED Results and discussion TABLE PRESENTED The results of satellite images interpretation in the period of investigation show an increase of water area between 1991 and 1998 which can be interpreted regarding the rise of Caspian Sea water level and a decrease of 19 percent between 1998 and 2001 due to withdrawal of shoreline and less precipitation in this period. A remarkable increase can be distinguished in the amount of grasses, which is because of an increase in the presence of Azola which is an exotic invasive plant. This increase plus an increase in shrubs and decrease in water body area are indicators of wetland's Eutrophication. The overall result of this research indicates that Anzali wetland is affected by some large scale factors such as Caspian Sea level fluctuations and precipitation and also local factors such as land use changes. Both types of parameters have significant impacts on the wetland and should be noticed in wetland's management program.",,57-64,,57,37,,J. Environ.

In the Hadera Stream estuary in Israel, two vulnerable shark species aggregate every winter in a highly active coastal area frequented by snorkelers, SCUBA divers, recreational fishers, and motorized and non-motorized water sports enthusiasts. The interaction between humans and sharks raises important concerns for the safety of individuals near these apex predators and for the sharks' welfare. The Hadera Stream estuary, impacted by heated water discharged from the nearby Hadera power station, experiences significant anthropogenic effects, leading the Israeli Nature and Parks Authority to disqualify it from designation as an MPA. By employing the Delphi technique with relevant experts, we identified activities posing the greatest threats in human-shark interactions. Using this information, we have proposed restricting human activities to only during specific times. Our research findings provide valuable insights for potential regulators. This study represents the initial step in promoting area-based conservation in Israel, aiming to dynamically balance human recreational needs with shark conservation. The study underscores how utilizing specific technological advancements in shark tracking can advance an ecosystem-based approach, enabling tailored management practices that account for both conservation and recreational uses. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,261,,Ocean Coast.

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are a widely adopted management tool to address these challenges, but their conservation effectiveness is uncertain, especially in developing countries such as China. Management effectiveness evaluation (MEE) is an efficient method for assessing MPA outcomes and identifying key impact factors. However, only a limited number of MEEs have been conducted for China's MPAs in the past two decades, thus largely limiting their improvement of management. In this context, we conducted a comprehensive review of MPAs status and existing MEEs in China. We found that despite the significant increase in the number and coverage of China's MPAs, their conservation effectiveness might be impacted by the lack of systematic planning, adequate funding, appropriate zoning, long-term monitoring, and sound laws. Major challenges to the evaluation of MPA management effectiveness in China include the lack of a standardized framework, limited survey data, financial support, and public engagement. To address these challenges, we developed a comprehensive framework based on the common objectives of China's MPAs and existing MEE frameworks. We also recommend based on the developed framework: 1) establishing long-term monitoring pilots in national MPAs; 2) providing sustained funding support for MEE, monitoring and capacity building from government, social capital, and ecotourism; and 3) promoting public participation in MPA management and evaluation through advocacy, incentive mechanisms, and establishment of committees. Adopting our recommendations can strengthen adaptive management and provide new insights into evidence-based decision-making for MPAs in China. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,224,,Ocean Coast.

One point of interest is the characterisation of marine habitats to localise the areas that fulfil the protection targets. Of the habitats listed in Annex I of the Habitats Directive, mainly reefs and sandbanks are relevant in the case of German Baltic offshore waters. Along a strong salinity gradient (5 to 25 psu), four planned offshore Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) within the German Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of the Baltic Sea were thoroughly investigated in this study. More than 250 locations were analysed using a combination of standard sampling methods, underwater video technique, and measurement of abiotic factors (salinity, oxygen, sediment parameters). The areas of interest were the Odra Bank (Oderbank), Adler Ground (Adlergrund), Kadet Trench (Kadetrinne), and Fehmarn Belt (Fehmarnbelt). The characteristic living communities (macrophytes, such as algae and sea grass, and macrozoobenthos such as worms, bivalves and crustaceans) for the different habitat types in these areas were characterised. Due to different salinity regimes, the benthic colonisation is different as well. In the Baltic Sea, with its decreasing salinity from west to east, the number of marine species declines, too. In the present study, altogether approximately 350 macrozoobenthic species and approximately 20 macrophytes were identified. © 2006 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.",,141-156,,,,,,,,,,,Springer Berlin Heidelberg,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Journal Abbreviation: Progress in Mar.

The later four surveys were conducted in the same area and consisted of 578 setlines, 8 anchored setlines and 2003 drift net catches. A total of 1982 fish belonging to 38 species were captured. For the hydroacoustic surveys, a BioSonics echo sounder with a vertically down looking 199 kHz split-beam transducer was applied, both for data recording, and for guiding the capture trials by drift nets and setlines. Post processing applying automatic tracking identified 7217 single targets from the eight acoustic surveys. Body size was estimated from TS values of single targets. No P. gladius were captured. The acoustic data, however, revealed at least a few observations that are difficult to interpret as something other than large P. gladius.

Due to achieving high boost pressure with great system efficiency and controllable characteristic in wide working range, the RTS turbocharging system improves output power at low speed condition and reduces pumping loss at high speed condition. Composing of two turbochargers and control valves, the RTS turbocharging system is matched with engine at a design point and regulated by adjusting control valves to meet the engine requirement of intake pressure and flow at other working conditions. Calibration of the control valves under all operating conditions by plentiful experiments is significant for turbocharging system, particularly that matched with diesel engine for vehicle. Moreover, when an automobile run on the plateau, the intake air flow will decrease and combustion in cylinder will deteriorate obviously. Compared with other turbocharging system, two-stage turbocharging system is more suitable to the offset power loss of engine. Regulating boost system under different operation conditions draws more attention to engine performance recovery so that the workload of calibration raises rapidly in consideration of altitude factor. Though much work has been done in calibration at various altitudes, there are few, if any, discussion on open-closed boundary of control valves to simplify the calibration process. In this paper, it aims to present a regulation boundary model of control valve at different altitudes to guide the calibration and a series of experiments for RTS system can be saved. Firstly, a thermodynamics analysis of the RTS turbocharging system is conducted and typical regulation methods are compared in terms of the adjustment capacity and efficiency characteristics of turbocharging system, which indicates that high-stage turbine bypass is the optimum regulation method. Then, a regulation boundary model for the RTS turbocharging system at different altitudes is deduced, according to the relation of equivalent turbine area and engine operating condition. The regulation boundaries of different altitudes are obtained by iterative computation of the model, and the whole working mode of the RTS system is divided into a fully closed area and a regulated area. Experiments are carried out to verify the regulation boundary model at sea level condition. Brake torque, efficiency of the RTS system and temperature before high-stage turbine are primary parameters for verification in this article. The maximum error shows up with a value of 3.65% brake torque at 2200rpm. While a one-dimensional simulation model is built up to validate the regulation boundary model of the plateau. All the errors are smaller than 3% at various altitudes. It results that model is accurate enough to predict the regulation boundary of the RTS system. By the calculation of regulation boundary model, the brake torque at regulation boundary will decrease if the engine speeds up. It also manifests that fully closed area will argument if the automobile climbs up to high operating altitude, especially under high speed condition.

Here, we investigate population genomics of the endangered wild apple tree to interpret the effects of long-term aridification on plant diversification and demographical history in Central Asian Mountains. Location: The Tianshan Mountains, spanning north-western China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. Taxon: Malus sieversii (Rosaceae). Methods: Using genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphisms, we assessed genetic diversity and genetic structure of 15 populations across the species' range. Demographical history was simulated with approximate Bayesian computation and species distribution modelling. We used a general linear model to identify key environmental factors affecting population genetic diversity and structure. Results: We separated the 15 populations into three groups: the eastern group of western Junggar Mountains in China; the central group of the Ili Valley, the Talas Alatau Mountains in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan; and the western group of Tajikistan and the Dzungarian Alatau in Kazakhstan. Central populations had higher genetic diversity and effective population size than eastern and western populations. The three groups split at the late Miocene and subsequently experienced extensive admixture. We detected a significant pattern of isolation by distance, but not isolation by environment, among these populations. Population genetic diversity was significantly associated with longitudinal and current environmental gradients. Main conclusions: Long-term aridification promoted distribution fragmentation and plant lineage divergence of relict broad-leaved forests in Central Asian Mountains. Both geographical isolation and environmental heterogeneity shaped spatial patterns in genetic variation among M. sieversii populations. To maintain genetic integrity, we propose the establishment of an international network for the conservation of this endangered wild apple tree. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd",,332-344,,2,48,,J.

The buffer zone as a conservation layer and management tool for WHSs has attracted increasing scholarly attention and debate. However, there is limited understanding of buffer zones' social and ecological role in the conservation of World Natural Heritage Sites (WNHSs) and a lack of summary of research progress on buffer zones. To fill this gap, this study systematically reviews the existing knowledge and research gaps on buffer zones in WNHSs worldwide. We used a systematic literature review framework of Search, Assessment, Synthesis and Analysis (SALSA) through the WoS and CNKI databases to obtain 188 articles that met the inclusion criteria. The aim was to analyze the temporal and regional distribution of publications, types of studies, main processes and landmark achievements, gaps, and implications for future research. Results indicated that: (1) there is an overall upward trend in the number of publications, reaching a maximum in 2020, with the most published in Asia and Europe. The research process presents two main categories of ecologically and socially oriented. (2) The main landmark achievements include theoretical research, technology and methods, model construction, benefit monitoring and evaluation, experimental demonstration, etc. Among them, theoretical research is the most numerous (58.51%). (3) On this basis, 8 key scientific issues are summarised. Reviewing the research progress and summarising the critical scientific issues will provide practical guidance for the effective implementation of the role of buffer zones in global WNH conservation, especially for karst WNHSs with fragile ecological environments.

The reserves of the Pearl River Delta have different ecological functions and face different threats. At the same time, these nature reserves have different levels of protection and serve different purposes, such as the protection of local species and providing society with regionally protected areas. A comprehensive evaluation of nature reserves would lay a solid foundation for their management and for related policies and decision making. Three types of indicators were selected to facilitate acquiring comprehensive protection status for the nature reserves in Pearl River delta region: the size of the reserve, the level of threat from human activities, and the current level of management. An entropy method was used to make a comprehensive evaluation of the reserves. Each reserve was given a ranking from high to poor, based on a comprehensive look at all these factors. The results indicate: (1) Seven of a total 48 nature reserves studied ranked high. Thirty ranked moderately high, 10 are moderately well protected, and only one is poorly protected. In general, although some of the nature reserves were ranked high, obvious differences in their layout and design exist, especially those in the cities of Shenzhen, Zhongshan, and Foshan, where new nature reserves should be added. (2) Because the cities of Zhuhai and Huizhou have a relatively large number of nature reserves, these reserves have major differences. The design and geographic layout of nature reserves in Huizhou are relatively uniform, but in Zhuhai significant differences exist between them since some of the nature reserves are on oceanic islands. We conclude the protection level can be ranked as: Zhaoqing and Jiangmen>Shenzhen>Guangzhou and Huizhou>Foshan and Zhongshan >Zhuhai. (1) Current research in nature reserve protection focuses on determining the appropriate size for nature reserves. Governments departments administering these areas are attempting to solve this important problem. In theory, increasing the size of a nature reserve may benefit the reproduction, growth, and survival of the living creatures there, but increasing the size has a limit to its benefits, especially when human-caused pressures and management goals are considered. So the appropriate size of each area should be determined. Our research indicates the overall quality of these nature reserves is closely related to their physical size. We used a regression model to select the most suitable sizes for them. (4) Our results show an increase in the overall protection level of regional reserves is positively related to the geographic size of these areas. By constructing some high quality reserves with large geographic areas, the region can create core ecological reserves that preserve some ecological aspects of the original landscape. These reserves can also support the development of other reserves through an exchange of species and its influence on the local environment, but the size differences of these regional reserves should be small. The cooperation and coordination among nature reserves of various sizes, the level of protection each reserve provides, and species resources present should also be considered when designating a reserve. (5) The influence of natural disturbances on the comprehensive protection of reserves is larger in coastal areas or in man-made ecological islands than it is in other types of reserves.",,5341-5350,,18,31,,Shengtai Xuebao Acta Ecol.

Consequently, natural coastal wetland area was substantially lost due to land conversion, petroleum production, coastal aquaculture, and salt farms. However, with the implementation of the National Wetland Conservation Program (2002—2030), the increase investments of the central and local governments, have not done that much to mitigate the existing problems. This paper aims to measure 10 coastal provincial management of coastal wetland conservation and utilization from 2006 to 2015. We collected land use data, the number of staffs, capital investment, coastal wetland conservation areas, coastal wetland production and sewage treatment rate. First, we constructed an evaluation indicator system for coastal wetland protection and utilization management. Second, we used Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method to optimize indicator system to acquire the values of all input and output indicators. Finally, we used Super Efficiency-Slack Based Measurement of Data Envelopment Analysis (Super SBM-DEA) model to calculate the management efficiency of the 10 coastal provinces. The results showed that the effective Decision-Making Units (DMUs) accounted for 7 1 % and the invalid DMUs accounted for 29%. Most effective DMUs were seen in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2014 and 2015. Fujian, Guangdong, Hainan, and Jiangsu contained nearly half of the inefficient DMUs. While Shandong, Hebei and Zhejiang showed the most efficient DMUs scoring nearly 90%. Out of six indicators, two main indicators contributed to a reduction efficiency which are lack of protected areas of coastal wetland and the under-utilization of capital investment.

The high-value areas of comprehensive ecosystem services are mainly distributed in the northern mountainous areas, and the low-value areas are mainly concentrated in the southern urban construction area. (2) The systematic conservation planning method which took into account the constraints and the protection costs had certain advantages in the delineation of ecological protection space. The ecological protection red line area in the systematic conservation planning result is 1505.02 k m 2 , accounting for 83.43% of the ecological protection red line area. The rest area is mainly composed of forest and grassland, garden land, and cultivated land, accounting for 4 5 . 9 2 %, 1 9 . 7 1 %, and 2 2 . 2 4 %, respectively. (3) In the future ecological protection construction, the diversified remediation strategies such as enhanced management of ecological protection, comprehensive improvement of ecosystem services, and construction of ecological agriculture should be carried out for the core ecological red line, general protected areas, and basic farmland areas in the systematic conservation planning. © 2021 Science Press.

However, this is challenging due to the lack of techniques and data. Here we initiated prioritization studies for a genus of flagship species, seahorses (Hippocampus spp.), at a national scale (in China) and worldwide. Our target was to protect at least 2000 km2 area of occupancy (AOO) for each species at minimum costs. We first conducted a gap analysis to examine the coverage of existing marine protected areas (MPAs, both multiple-use MPAs and no-take MPAs) on species' AOO. We then used Marxan, a typical prioritization tool, to set priority habitats for species that didn't meet our target. We did this in different socioeconomic scenarios and overlaid their priority solutions to identify spatial convergence and divergence, representing final solutions for no-take reserves and multiple-use areas, respectively. We compared the utility of Marxan's outputs (best solution vs. selection frequency) in deriving better final solutions (more no-take areas, less patchy, lower cost). Our gap analysis indicated that species' AOOs were mainly covered by multiple-use MPAs, flagging the uncertain efficacy of existing MPAs in protecting seahorses. The two outputs of Marxan derived similar priority solutions, with the selection-frequency output tended to perform better than the best-solution output. We identified new priority habitats for seahorses to inform MPA establishment in China and worldwide. Our study provides useful techniques to derive marine conservation priorities under different socioeconomic constraints at very broad spatial scales. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd",,79-88,,,235,,Biol.

Currently, large spatial-scale distribution patterns and conservation gaps are poorly known for most species since they are challenging to study. To address the problem, we here use an integrated approach with an illustration with the blue shark (Prionace glauca), a common bycatch oceanic species. Location: Indo-Western Pacific Ocean (IWPO). Methods: We first collated decades of species occurrences and marine environmental datasets from open-access sources. We then applied ensembled species distribution models (SDMs) to predict its seasonal distributions and evaluated the model performance using true skill statistic (TSS) and area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC). We finally conducted spatial analyses (e.g. bivariate hotspot analyses) to identify conservation gaps/opportunities based on the predicted distribution maps and two additional datasets, namely, marine protected areas (MPAs) and fishing effort. Results: (1) Both seasonal SDMs performed well (mean TSS > 0.8, AUC > 0.95), and the results suggested that blue sharks were widely distributed in the IWPO with some seasonal differences in ecological niches and distributions (mainly in the West Indian Ocean and the Northwest Pacific Ocean); (2) large MPAs and shark sanctuaries covered comparable, small portions (4%–9%) of blue shark habitats, but these locations (in MPAs and sanctuaries) varied between seasons; (3) fishery-shark conflict hotspots also varied between seasons with some located in or close to large MPAs and sanctuaries. Main conclusions: We provide seasonal (cold vs. warm) distribution maps of blue sharks across the IWPO to advance their conservation and management. We highlight the importance of strengthening management both in and near large MPAs and shark sanctuaries.

Such modelling studies, however, often ignore biotic interactions that shape species' geographic ranges. This is especially problematic for coral reefs, which host a high diversity of species and interactions. We tested how biotic interactions affect the distribution patterns of obligate coral-dwelling Trapezia crabs. Location: Global coastal ocean. Time Period: 2000–2014, 2040–2050, 2090–2100. Major Taxa Studied: Corals and coral-dwelling Trapezia crabs. Methods: We determined the symbiotic relationships between 22 crab species in the genus Trapezia and corals via field survey and extensive literature review. We first developed SDMs for coral and crab species using exclusively abiotic variables (abiotic-only models for corals and crabs). Then we constructed a second set of models where we accounted for coral distributions into crab predictions by combining model predictions for the two taxa a posteriori (abiotic-plus-biotic models for crabs only). Results: We obtained 30 commonly accepted coral-crab symbiotic relationships from nine Trapezia crab and six stony coral species. The abiotic-only model predictions showed that six corals may lose approximately one-sixth of suitable ranges under RCP 8.5 in 2040–2050. The two types of models for crabs yielded largely different habitat suitability predictions and accounting for biotic interactions into SDM predictions exacerbates the predicted impacts of climate change on coral-dwelling crabs. Main Conclusions: Our results show large discrepancies in crab spatial distribution patterns with and without accounting for symbiotic interactions. Our findings highlight the important role of modeller's decision on accounting for biotic interactions when predicting the geographical ranges of coral-dwelling species, with important implications for designing future conservation and management strategies for marine species. © 2023 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.",,769-782,,4,51,,J.

Socioeconomic factors are one of the criteria for the establishment of area-based management tools in the high seas for marine biodiversity conservation beyond national jurisdiction. The aim of the work is to propose a spatiotemporal approach to identify risks from marine human activities and recommendations for high seas governance. Methods: Data related to human activities from 2014 to 2022 were used to calculate the distribution and changes of human-related stressors, and the risk to marine biodiversity in the high seas caused by human activities. Results: The North Atlantic, Philippine Sea, Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal, and East Central Atlantic show high and increasing intensities of human-related stressors, and are therefore particularly at need for the protection and conservation of marine biodiversity. Risks from human activities vary within the marine areas that are prioritized for biodiversity protection. The study recommends that the designation of high seas protected areas should take into account the types of risks to which the different marine areas are exposed, and that the high seas protected areas should be established gradually. At the same time, appropriate management measures should be formulated according to the intensity of human activities in the different marine areas. Conclusions: Quantifying and classifying the risk from human-related stressors could help identify solution for the protection and conservation and facilitate the marine spatial planning, establishment area based management tools, including marine protected areas in the high seas. © The Author(s) 2024.",,,,4,107,,Sci.

How much biodiversity will be protected depends on where this 30 % is located. The West Pacific region, having the richest marine biodiversity on Earth, is especially important for nature conservation. Here, using multiple data-driven measures of the breadth biodiversity, from species to ecosystems from the sea surface to seabed, at a spatial resolution of 0.5° (?55 km latitude), we mapped the optimal “Representative Biodiversity Areas” (RBA) for West Pacific countries using decision support software. The measures included surface and near seabed Ecosystems, which were mapped by physical, biochemical and nutrient variables relevant to ecological functioning. Species richness, seagrass, kelp, mangrove, and shallow water coral reef biomes (biological habitats at a local scale) and seabed topographic variation (as rugosity) were also included as complementary measures to maximise representivity of biodiversity overall. The 30 % RBA generally covered 30 % of the Ecosystems, over 77 % of the Biomes of seagrass, kelp, mangrove, and shallow water corals, and 60 % of physical habitat heterogeneity (topography) and the most species rich areas. Because protecting only these four biomes was not sufficient to include all species, physical habitat heterogeneity and ecosystems should be included in conservation prioritisation because they extend offshore and to all depths. To cover the distributions of 80 % species in the region, at least 53 % of the total area should be under protection. Only 25 % of the RBA were in MPAs, and < 1 % in no-take MPAs. Three countries, Indonesia, Australia and New Zealand, occupied almost half (47 %) of the RBA, and 11 countries had more than 30 % of their Exclusive Economic Zones in the RBA. Opportunities exist to expand and merge existing MPA, increase levels of protection, and having MPA in areas of disputed or shared governance, including 5 % of RBA being in the study area's High Seas. Consideration of the geographically uneven distribution of biodiversity is thus necessary in achieving the 30 % by 2030 target. Systematic conservation planning, as shown here, can lead to at least twice as much biodiversity being protected per area. That at least half of the West Pacific Ocean in MPA may be necessary to protect all marine biodiversity, indicates how critical it is to use resources outside MPA in an ecologically sustainable way. © 2024",,,,,53,,Glob.

This paper has systematically sorted out the existing spatial distribution data of 2672 nature reserves in China (excluding Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan), formed a relatively complete geo-spatial database. Preliminary analysis was conducted on statistical characteristics from the aspects of development process, protection type, construction scale, etc. And the methods of geographical concentration index and kernel density index were used to analyze the spatial distribution characteristics of nature reserves from different dimensions, such as sea and land distribution, provincial distribution, temporal and spatial distribution, agglomeration distribution and so on. The results showed that: (1) China's nature reserves were rich in number and type, roughly experienced five development stages of starting, slow development, steady development, rapid development, and stable and perfect stage. The main types of nature reserves were small and medium sized forest ecosystem, wildlife, inland wetland and aquatic ecosystem. (2) They were spatially clustered with significantly provincial differences, showing the characteristics of less in the west and more in the east, and clustering in the west and scattering in the east along the Hu Huanyong Line. (3) There were obvious differences in the cluster trend among different types and management levels of nature reserves, forming 11 significant aggregation areas, such as Huangshan Huaiyu Mountain, Northeast Guangdong Hills, Nanling, and Wuyi Mountain. (4) The construction scale and continuous aggregation effect of nature reserves decreased from west to east, which were closely related to the changing trend of the ""threestep ladder"" terrain structure in China. Finally, this paper discussed the main reasons for spatial pattern of existing nature reserves in China, including objective natural conditions and subjective human factors, and summarized the existing problems in the spatial distribution and development of nature reserves, and put forward some suggestions for establishing the network of nature reserves with perfect distribution and the integration of land and sea, scientifically defining the types of protected areas, gradually optimizing the boundaries of nature reserves, and enhancing scientific research and monitoring effectiveness.

China has nearly six decades of experience in the practice of MPAs. However, the management effectiveness of China's MPAs has been impeded by issues accumulated over the years. In 2018, the Chinese government embarked on a major institutional reform (2018 Reform) to upgrade its MPAs into natural protected area (NPA) system. This strategic decision and subsequent actions in transforming the existing protected areas (marine and terrestrial) to NPAs have brought substantial changes with significant implications towards an ecosystem-based management approach of China's national system for marine conservation. Based on the investigation of 27 representative MPAs and OECMs across the country, this study used 12 performance indicators to evaluate the management effectiveness of China's MPA system, and identified key issues affecting the effective operation of the system. The results indicated that the major issues hampering management effectiveness include multiple management agencies, lack of systematic planning for classification and zoning, lack of unified and specific legal system, and insufficient financial supports.

However, the current EPA evaluation remains incomplete, primarily due either to the scale of evaluation focusing on only isolated PAs without considering network connectivity or to the difficulty of balancing social and ecological synergy in practice. To address this issue, we proposed a social-ecological connectivity pathway to maximize the evaluation and optimization of EPA in a coastal region: first, we selected social and ecological indicators for habitat suitability evaluation and simulated the protected area network (PAN); second, we evaluated the rationality of network connectivity; and ultimately, we identified conservation gaps to the post-2020 global biodiversity target. Considering the complexity of coastal ecosystems, we selected the four coastal cities of the Shandong Peninsula, China as a case study. We find that (1) the social-ecological PAN consists of 370 primary corridors and 110 secondary corridors; there are 12 cross-ecosystem types in the identified PANs, three of which span marine to terrestrial ecosystems, while the remaining nine span terrestrial interior ecosystems; (2) 66 nodes were identified as spatial gaps; the benefit gap indicated that 51.75% of PAs were inefficiently protected but 48.25% were appropriately protected; regarding quantity gap, the marine PAs gap (25.41%) is much larger than the terrestrial PAs gap (15.80%), suggesting a possible priority in the marine PAs appropriately.

The rate of forest conversion could be reduced by establishing protected areas for biological diversity and other conservation goals. The purpose of this study is to quantify the efficiency and potential of forest land protection for mitigating GHG emissions.Results: The analysis of related national-level datasets shows that during the period of 1992-2001 net forest losses in protected areas were small as compared to those in unprotected areas: -0.74% and -4.07%, respectively. If forest loss rates in protected and unprotected area had been similar, then forest losses in the protected forestlands would be larger by 870 km2/yr forests, that corresponds to release of 7 Tg C/yr (1 Tg=1012 g). Conversely, and continuing to assume no leakage effects or interactions of prices and harvest levels, about 1,200 km2/yr forests could have remained forest during the period of 1992-2001 if net area loss rate in the forestland outside protected areas was reduced by 20%. Not counting carbon in harvested wood products, this is equivalent to reducing fossil-fuel based carbon emissions by 10 Tg C/yr during this period. The South and West had much higher potentials to mitigate GHG emission from reducing loss rates in unprotected forests than that of North region. Spatially, rates of forest loss were higher across the coastal states in the southeastern US than would be expected from their population change, while interior states in the northern US experienced less forest area loss than would have been expected given their demographic characteristics.Conclusions: The estimated carbon benefit from the reduced forest loss based on current protected areas is 7 Tg C/yr, equivalent to the average carbon benefit per year for a previously proposed ten-year $110 million per year tree planting program scenario in the US. If there had been a program that could have reduced forest area loss by 20% in unprotected forestlands during 1992-2001, collectively the benefits from reduced forest loss would be equal to 9.4% of current net forest ecosystem carbon sequestration in the conterminous US. © 2013 Zheng et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.",,,,1,8,,Carbon Balance Manage.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,afforestation; Afforestation and deforestation; biodiversity; carbon balance; carbon emission; carbon sequestration; coastal zone; conservation planning; data set; deforestation; Forest carbon emissions; Forest carbon sequestration; forest ecosystem; fossil fuel; greenhouse gas; land cover; land use change; Net deforestation rate; plantation forestry; Protected and unprotected forestlands; protected area; United States,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The Caspian Sea basin and protected landscape/seascape (category V) showed high ecological vulnerability, while the Black Sea basin and wilderness areas (category Ib) showed low ecological vulnerability. Big Earth Data shows great vitality in PAs ecological vulnerability assessment.

National parks are spatial carriers to realize the value of natural resources and benefit the general public in typical ecosystems. They take ecological protection, scientific research and education, and recreational use as management objectives to satisfy people's needs for beautiful ecological environments, excellent ecological products, and high-quality ecological services. Taking the Liaohekou National Park as a case area, this study constructed a spatial multiscale integration framework for cultural ecosystem service flow based on the research paradigms for different spatial scales, used multiple source data such as remote sensing and social media data, and applied spatial analysis tools such as the MaxEnt model and ArcGIS platform to evaluate the spatial patterns of recreational, biodiversity, historical, scientific, and educational services provision and flow of the ecosystem and their influencing factors in the study area. The results show that: 1) In general, at the intraregional scale, the total supply of various cultural ecosystem services is greater than the intraregional service flows, and the four types of cultural ecosystem service flows are mainly concentrated in estuaries and eastern coastal areas; at the interregional scale, the distribution of various types of cultural ecosystem service flows is mainly related to the level of economic development, especially in coastal provinces and municipalities. 2) At different spatial scales, the factors that influence the spatial distribution of cultural ecosystem service flows have different strengths, among which the distance from national parks and economic factors show significant differences at different scales, with the former showing strong-weak-strong changes within the region, province, and the whole country, and the latter showing weak-strong-strong changes. The spatial multiscale integration framework of cultural ecosystem service flow constructed in this study is not only an exploratory study on the distribution pattern and mechanism of cultural ecosystem service flow, but also provides a reference for improving the management efficiency and ecological product supply capacity of national parks, and promotes the construction of national park protected area system. © 2024, Editorial office of PROGRESS IN GEOGRAPHY.

However, robust methodologies and comprehensive frameworks for assessing ecosystem sustainability are still lacking. This study presents an integrated framework that incorporates both diversity and stability in evaluating ecosystem sustainability. Our methodology involves a multi-step process: first, we select and integrate landscape metrics to quantify ecosystem diversity; second, we establish an ecological network and apply a robustness model to assess ecosystem stability; finally, we delineate zones of ecosystem sustainability based on the combined assessments of diversity and stability. Our findings reveal that (1) from 1995 to 2020, ecosystem diversity significantly increased within the urban agglomeration around Hangzhou Bay (UAHB), with notable regional patterns, particularly in Huzhou, Jiaxing, and Ningbo. (2) The structure and connectivity of the ecological network have markedly improved, with network robustness in 2020 surpassing that of 1995, indicating enhanced ecosystem stability.

Therefore, we proposed an underwater optical detection network (UODN) based on the you only look once version 8 (YOLOv8) framework, which addresses these issues through the cross stage multi-branch (CSMB) module and large kernel spatial pyramid (LKSP) module. The aim of the CSMB module is to extract more features from underwater optical images to address the issue of poor image quality, while the LKSP module is designed to enhance the ability of the network to detect underwater objects of various scales. Furthermore, CSMBDarknet built by CSMB and LKSP can be used as the backbone of other underwater object detection algorithms for underwater feature extraction. Extensive experimental results on the underwater robot professional contest 2020 dataset revealed that the average precision (AP) of UODN increased by 1.0%, the AP50 of UODN increased by 1.1%, and the AP75 of UODN increased by 2.1% compared with those of the original YOLOv8s.

Even though there are indications that the small-scale handline fishery of the Galapagos Marine Reserve has a low selectivity, information on its bycatch has never been published. We used onboard monitoring and interview data to assess the bycatch of the Galapagos handline fishery by estimating the bycatch ratio, determining species compositions of landings and bycatch, identifying fishers' reasons for discarding certain individuals, and revealing historical trends in the bycatch ratio. The estimated bycatch ratio as a function of biomass of 0.40 and a diverse species composition of target catch and bycatch confirmed the low selectivity of this fishery. Most individuals were not landed for economic motivations, either because species (77.4%) or sizes (17.7%) are unmarketable or for regulatory reasons (5.9%). We found that bycatch contributes to growth overfishing of some target species because they are discarded or used as bait before reaching their first maturity. Moreover, over half of interviewees perceived a historical decrease in bycatch ratios that was explained by a diversification of the target catch due to the reduction in abundance of the traditionally most important target species. As some target species show signs of overfishing and to date there are no specific regulations for the finfish fishery species in place, we recommend the implementation of a series of management measures to protect critical life stages of overexploited species and to improve the selectivity of the Galapagos handline fishery. © 2015 Zimmerhackel et al.",,,,6,2015,,PeerJ,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: PeerJ Inc.,,,,Article; BY-CATCH; Bycatch; Bycatch mortality; bycatch ratio; CONSERVATION; Discards; environmental protection; fish; fisherman; fishery; fishery bycatch; fishery management; fishing; Galapagos marine reserve; Galapagos sailfin grouper; geography; handline fishery; Handline fishery; HOOK; human; IMPACTS; information processing; interview; Interview suveys; KNOWLEDGE; MANAGEMENT; marine conservation; marine environment; mathematical phenomena; MITIGATION; Multispecies fisheries; nonhuman; Regulatory discards; RESOURCES; Small-scale fisheries; socioeconomics; STRATEGY; TRAWLS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

This entire calcareous ridge has already undergone phytosociological studies. The aim of this study is to highlight the vegetation diversity of the biotope, as correlated with the complex morphology of the valley, its different ecological conditions, and the human activity of coppicing. The study area is the 'Macchia delle Tassinete' Site of Community Importance, and it is the third lowest peak positioned between the Marche Apennines and the Adriatic Sea, with a NE-SW orientation. It is also characterised by the presence of populations of yew (T. baccata) and holly (Ilex aquifolium). The yew is found throughout the Italian regions, although in isolated and extremely limited areas, as relict forms of the Tertiary that have been preserved to date. These enclaves are present throughout the central-southern Apennines, but the object of the present study is certainly one of the largest and easternmost remaining areas for T. baccata in central Italy. The plant communities dominated by yew are in the first part of the valley of the river Fosso delle Scalette. Here, the exposure to humid winds coming from the sea and the northern quadrants creates microclimatic conditions that are suitable for the development of T. baccata, which grows best on calcareous substrates and in an oceanic climate. This coenosis is attributed to the new association Staphyleo pinnatae-Taxetum baccatae. Despite the low altitude, in the more shady and humid areas, there is a beech forest suited to low altitudes that includes yew, which has allowed the description of the new association Asparago acutifolii-Fagetum sylvaticae. This new association has been attributed to the new suballiance described here for the first time, named Lathyro veneti-Fagenion, included in the alliance Aremonio-Fagion. This new suballiance groups together the thermophilus beech forests of the mesotemperate bioclimatic belt of the central Apennines. Along the slopes, on a narrow but flat terrace where the soil is deep and fresh, there is an original wood dominated by Quercus cerris with abundant Ilex aquifolium and other mesophilus trees. This has been attributed to the new association Taxo baccatae-Quercetum cerris, which also occurs with the subassociation fagetosum sylvaticae, and is included in the endemic Italian alliance Physospermo-Quercion cerris. In the sunny and dry areas, species of the order Fagetalia decrease, and the beech forest gives way to forest dominated by Ostrya carpinifolia that has been attributed to the association Scutellario columnae-Ostryetum carpinifoliae. There are also more thermophilus woods that are dominated by white oak and are rich in Mediterranean species, and have thus been attributed to the association Roso sempervirentis-Quercetum virgilianae. In conclusion, the importance of the conservation of this rich diversity in forest typologies is highlighted by their inclusion in the different European Union Habitats, sensu Habitats Directive. © 2014 Italian Society for Vegetation Science.",,117-129,,2,51,,Plant Sociolo.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Societa Italiana di Scienza della Vegetazione,,,,92/43/EEC directive; Apennines; biotope; coniferous forest; coppice; Fagus; Forest biodiversity; habitat management; human activity; Ilex; Ilex aquifolium; Italy; Lathyro veneti-Fagenion sylvaticae; morphology; Ostrya carpinifolia; phytosociology; Phytosociology; plant community; Quercus alba; Quercus cerris; species diversity; Taxus; Taxus baccata; vegetation dynamics,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

However, little is known about suitable areas for process-oriented conservation and its different strategies. In this paper, we identify priority areas for process-oriented conservation following an ecoregion-based approach. Using the Alpine Space programme area as a pilot study area, a Wilderness Quality Index is calculated and mapped based on spatial indicators reflecting variations in naturalness, human impact, remoteness, and ruggedness. To identify priority areas for process-oriented conservation, the 10% of areas with the highest wilderness quality are identified for each ecoregion (‘ecoregional approach’) and compared with the identification of the 10% wildest areas of the entire study area (‘conventional approach’). The results show significant differences in priority areas between the two approaches, with those identified by the ecoregional approach being of lower wilderness quality, more dispersed across the study region and different elevation classes, and smaller in size. The ecoregional approach results in a greater coverage of ecosystem- and species-level diversity, yet it highlights a greater need for complementing the protection of wilderness in less modified regions with rewilding initiatives and the expansion of the protected area network in ecoregions with significant human activity. Based on these findings, we discuss the potential and challenges that an ecoregion-based identification of priority areas brings for biodiversity conservation, protection and restoration practice, and local communities. The ecoregion-based approach and the findings of this study can inform initiatives under the EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2030, in particular the target to ‘strictly protect’ 10% of the EU's land and sea. © 2024 The Author(s)",,,,,81,,J.

This study assessed multiple long-standing (>70 years active) intra-lake FPAs in three lakes in eastern Ontario, Canada, to evaluate their potential conservation benefits. These FPAs were intended initially to protect exploited populations of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides (Lacépčde, 1802)), but since their establishment no empirical data have been collected to evaluate the effectiveness of FPAs for protecting bass or the broader fish community. A comparative biological census of fish species abundance, biomass and species richness was conducted using snorkelling surveys within FPAs, along the bordering transition zones, and in more distant non-protected areas of the lake that had similar habitats to the FPAs. In general, the FPAs yielded benefits that were most obvious (in terms of abundance and biomass) for the focal protected species (i.e. largemouth bass) as well as several shiner species. Largemouth bass and shiner abundance and biomass were highest in the FPA, lowest in the distant non-protected areas, and intermediate in the transition zone. Species richness was also highest in the FPAs in two of the three lakes. Collectively, these results support the use of FPAs as a viable and effective conservation strategy that extends beyond simply limiting the exploitation of a target species. Beyond the benefits afforded to fish within the FPA, evidence of spillover in adjacent areas was also observed, which is promising. Additional research is needed on the effectiveness of FPAs in a variety of regions and water-body types facing various threats in an effort to understand when, where and how to best use FPAs to benefit aquatic biodiversity. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.",,1106-1122,,7,29,,Aquatic Conserv.

The Rideau waterway system (Ontario, Canada) is home to some of the oldest single-resource freshwater protected areas (FPAs) in Ontario (> 70 years active). Initially, these FPAs were intended to provide holistic protection to the heavily exploited largemouth bass, but since their establishment, little is known regarding their protective capacity. Using a passive acoustic telemetry network, we measured how site fidelity varied with body size and across seasons in largemouth bass within one Rideau waterway FPA. Collectively, 50 bass were tracked for an average of 227 days, with some individuals tracked upwards of 744 days. Tagged fish spent on average 55% of their time at liberty within the FPA, with occupancy rates exceeding 85% for some individuals. Most of the tagged fish displayed cyclical movement behaviour between the FPA and non-protected areas, largely corresponding with known life-history stages. Largemouth bass occupancy was highest in the spring–summer seasons (i.e. reproductive period), with a sharp decline during the autumn that sustained through the winter. FPA occupancy varied with body size, with large fish (> 430 mm) using the FPA more extensively. Our findings show that this Rideau waterway FPA provides temporal protection from exploitation to a highly targeted sportfish, especially during their reproductive period, likely providing major conservation benefits. These findings also highlight the value of considering the habitat requirements of a species across life stages to inform effective FPA design. © 2024, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.",,,,1,86,,Aquatic Sci.,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Publisher: Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH,,,,Canada; Conservation; conservation planning; finfish; habitat management; Movement; Occupancy; Ontario [Canada]; protected area; resource management; Resource-management; Rideau Canal; site fidelity; space use; tagging; telemetry; Telemetry; vertical movement,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

The objective of this study is to contribute with a methodological route that integrates EE to the existing model of management planning and strategies, taking the Colombian National Natural Parks System as a case study. The creation of the route is proposed as a participatory research with different stakeholders in order to respond to the specific conservation needs and goals for the National Parks System. The EE national diagnosis has shown that its integration within the parks management structure is a first priority need, being a converging result on the two case studies on National Parks from the Pacific Coast of Colombia. The diagnosis also demonstrates that communication, participation, training and evaluation have to be reinforced, linking the community and stakeholders involved in the park management to the whole EE process. The proposed methodology route has been agreed upon by the National Parks staff and incorporates advice and recommendations from different stakeholders, in order to better include the park users.

Such closure refers to the withdrawal of the Chinese distant water fishing fleet from part of the high seas where they regularly operate. It is an innovative conservation measure initiated by a nation-state with the significance for global ocean governance and meeting the requirements from the UN Sustainable Development Goals. This paper is designed to seek the possibility, through a qualitative study and interpretive analysis, of whether such an innovative conservation measure can be introduced into the fishery management in the Southern Ocean, currently mainly under the framework of CCAMLR. This paper attempts to answer some questions with this new introduction. First, whether this kind of seasonal closure is applicable or feasible within the framework of CCAMLR. Second, whether this kind of seasonal closure would infringe upon or disrupt existing regimes, such as marine protected areas (MPAs) created by CCAMLR. Third, how and to what extent such a measure is supported by best scientific evidence so as to reach optimal effectiveness. In this regard, firm support from contracting parties is necessary to enforce the seasonal closure within the coverage of CCAMLR. The paper concludes that the seasonal closure feasible under the CCAMLR legal frame-work, which, like the measures of MPAs, will facilitate the fulfillment of best scientific evidence and eventually contribute to the SDG-14 progressively in the Southern Ocean. © 2021 by the authors.

Beta vulgaris subsp. maritima ((L.) Arcangeli), also known as sea beet, is an important CWR of cultivated beets (GP-1). The high adaptability of this taxon to different environmental conditions, as well as its tolerance/resistance to different biotic and abiotic stresses, makes it a vital source for sugar beet improvement. Aim of this work was to analyse the in situ and ex situ status of sea beet population conservation in Italy, so as to guide protection activities and new collecting missions. Methods: Geographical distribution data of populations were that occur in the wild and conserved in genebanks were assembled from different databases and submitted to data quality control. Distribution, habitat characterization, land cover and use of the involved sites were then evaluated to provide insight into the current condition of areas hosting this CWR diversity. The presence of populations within vs. outside Italian protected areas was also evaluated. A density analysis of the records was performed and the adequateness of sea beet ex situ conservation, in terms of number of conserved accessions, was finally estimated. Results: A collection of 138 B. vulgaris subsp. maritima high quality georeferenced records were obtained, mainly distributed into Mediterranean Biogeographic Region. About 22% of the considered populations occurs in protected sites of the Natura 2000 Network, while about 15% in areas recorded in the Official list of protected natural areas (EUAP). Occurrences within protected areas are founded primarily in natural environments, whereas those outside are mainly located in urban and cultivated areas. The comparison of distribution and density analysis results revealed the presence of several gaps between sites hosting in situ populations and sites where ex situ conserved accessions were originally collected. Discussion: Here presented data indicates that the protection status for sea beet in Italy can be considered only partially adequate; more proactive protection measures should be foreseen to increase the role of protected areas in safeguarding in situ conservation. “Out of reserve management” for populations outside protected areas should also be developed, as well as new collecting missions carried out.

Yet, the result has not been comprehensive so far. It is therefore necessary to sustain the reef which requires a planned and synergistic effort by considering several dimensions. This study aims to analyze the level of sensitivity and level of sustainability of the reef using RAPFISH 2013 using R software, a multidimensional scaling approach. The results showed that in general, the dynamics of the sustainability status of Karang Jeruk coral reef management in each dimension seen from the year period analyzed do not show major differences. As for multidimensional, the sustainability status of Karang Jeruk ecosystem management varies in each dimension measured. The sustainability index with the highest order was the ecological dimensions (80.08) with the attribute of coralfish diversity being the most influential (3.88%). The second order is the technological dimensions (59.42) with the attribute of fishing gear as an attribute that must be considered (9.92%). The third place is the social dimensions (44.83) with the attribute of the number of fishery households (RTP) as the most influential (8.00%). The fourth place is the institutional dimensions (29.41) with the attribute that has the most influence being the private role attribute (6.13%). Finally, fifth is the economic dimensions (25.23) with the attribute alternative livelihood being the most influential (61.6%).

Its effects on the ecosystem have been poorly explored, for example, impacts of anglers on coastal birds. This study assessed perceptions and feelings of anglers towards their interaction with coastal birds, with the ultimate goal of generating information of socioecological value to be incorporated into national conservation instruments. A total of 240 structured questionnaires were conducted on active recreational fishers from the Mar Chiquita Reserve, Argentina. Main motivations to visit the fishing site expressed by respondents were the fishing quality and the peaceful and natural features of the reserve. Most anglers knew about the protected status of the site and have seen coastal birds during their fishing day, considering them to be beneficial to the ecosystem. Anglers observed coastal birds feeding on discards frequently; birds stealing the bait or the catch at moderate frequency; and birds entangled in fishing lines rarely. Most anglers indicated the occurrence of interaction with coastal birds during their activities, and expressed sadness when spotting a bird entangled in a fishing line. The information that emerged from this study could be used to develop informational strategies, for example guidelines for responsible fishing and signage aimed to inform anglers about the potential impacts of their interaction with coastal birds. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd",,,,,167,,Mar.

This can alter the structure, composition and function of remnant habitat. Therefore, understanding the influence of both landscape and patch characteristics is important for understanding factors affecting the distribution of organisms in urbanised landscapes. Consequently, the aim of this study was to establish the responses of forest dwelling mammals to landscape and habitat structure in an urban-forest mosaic in the EThekwini Municipality Area, Durban, South Africa. Using presence and absence data of mammals from camera traps, we modelled occupancy of species using the occupancy modelling framework. The occupancy by Philantomba monticola was positively influenced by forest cover (%), woody cover (%), leaf litter (%) and stem density of large trees and negatively influenced by road density. For Tragelaphus sylvaticus, Potamochoerus larvatus and Hystix africaeaustralis, occupancy was influenced positively by forest cover (%), woody cover (%) and foliage height diversity and negatively influenced by road density. For Genetta tigrina and Chlorocebus pygerythrus, occupancy was positively influenced by leaf litter (%), woody cover (%), forest cover (%) and road density and negatively influenced by distance to road. Thus, species showed varying responses to landscape and habitat structural variables. Genetta tigrina and C. pygerythrus appeared less vulnerable to the loss of forest habitat and degradation in habitat quality whereas T. sylvaticus, P. larvatus and H. africaeaustralis showed strong negative responses to such changes. The semi-arboreal habits of G. tigrina and C. pygerythrus may be an important factor facilitating their adaptability to urban environments as they can move unimpededly across the urban landscape in search of resources. The diversity of responses suggests that landscape management approaches that consider the habitat requirements of multiple species are more likely to be successful in this landscape. We suggest that conservation efforts directed primarily towards the protection and restoration of structurally intact forest habitats is the most prudent strategy for the conservation of mammalian diversity in this landscape. © 2019 Elsevier GmbH",,,,,48,,Urban For.

The designation of MPAs alone may not result in the lessening of some human threats, which is highly dependent on management goals and the related specific regulations that are adopted. Here, we develop and operationalize a local threat assessment framework. We develop indices to quantify the effectiveness of MPAs (or individual zones within MPAs in the case of multiple-use MPAs) in reducing anthropogenic extractive and non-extractive threats operating at local scale, focusing specifically on threats that can be managed through MPAs. We apply this framework in 15 Mediterranean MPAs to assess their threat reduction capacity. We show that fully protected areas effectively eliminate extractive activities, whereas the intensity of artisanal and recreational fishing within partially protected areas, paradoxically, is higher than that found outside MPAs, questioning their ability at reaching conservation targets. In addition, both fully and partially protected areas attract non-extractive activities that are potential threats. Overall, only three of the 15 MPAs had lower intensities for the entire set of eight threats considered, in respect to adjacent control unprotected areas. Understanding the intensity and occurrence of human threats operating at the local scale inside and around MPAs is important for assessing MPAs effectiveness in achieving the goals they have been designed for, informing management strategies, and prioritizing specific actions. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd",,237-245,,,221,,Biol.

The advent of high-resolution GPS technologies associated with new analytical algorithms is revolutionizing studies underpinning species spatial and social interaction patterns within ecosystems. Here, using a robust home range estimation algorithm, the autocorrelated kernel density estimator (AKDE) equipped with an equally powerful home range overlap metric, the Bhattacharyya's coefficient (BC), we provide one of the first attempts to estimate and delineate spatial home range overlap zones for critically endangered African white-backed vultures to inform conservation planning. Six vultures were captured in Hwange National Park using a modified cannon net system after which they were tagged and tracked with high-resolution GPS backpacks. Overall, results suggested weaker average home range overlaps based on both the pooled data (0.38 ± 0.26), wet non-breeding seasonal data (0.32 ± 0.23), and dry breeding season data (0.34 ± 0.28). Vultures 4, 5, and 6 consistently revealed higher home range overlaps across all the scales with values ranging between 0.60 and 0.99. Individual vultures showed consistence in space use patterns as suggested by high between-season home range overlaps, an indication that they may be largely resident within the Hwange ecosystem. Importantly, we also demonstrate that home range overlapping geographic zones are all concentrated within the protected area of Hwange National Park. Our study provides some of the first results on African vulture home range overlaps and segregation patterns in the savanna ecosystem based on unbiased telemetry data and rigorous analytical algorithms. Such knowledge may provide vital insights for prioritizing conservation efforts of key geographic overlap zones to derive maximum conservation benefits especially when targeting wide-ranging and critically endangered African white-backed vultures. To this end, spatial overlap zones estimated here, although based on a small sample size, could provide a strong foundation upon which other downstream social and ecological questions can be explored further to expand our understanding on shared space use mechanisms among African vulture species. © 2022 The Authors.

Given the growing demand for nature recreation, the consequences of high tourist visitation on wildlife need to be assessed in order to avoid incompatibilities between public use and species protection goals. The Tatra National Park (Poland), in the Carpathian Mountains, is a unique alpine ecosystem visited by three million tourists per year. It hosts the only native population of an endemic subspecies of chamois (Rupicapra rupicapra tatrica). We investigated the effects of tourist disturbance, the number of visitors, and the season on the concentration of fecal cortisol metabolites (FCM) in Tatra chamois in 2009. FCM levels of chamois were significantly higher and showed higher variation at high tourist disturbance (mean ± SD, 46. 2 ± 31. 53 ng/g, n = 56) than at low disturbance sites (mean ± SD, 17. 2 ± 8. 05 ng/g, n = 38). Stress levels increased with the number of visitors and therefore showed a peak in summer, coinciding with the highest number of visitation to the national park. A large portion of chamois habitat in Tatra National Park is within the area of influence of the touristic trail network. The temporal or permanent creation of areas free of disturbance in protected areas should be considered, especially in the periods of high tourist visitation.

The low water levels (>40 cm from the surface) during the dry season make dry peatlands susceptible to fires. The back wetting of peatland is the early effort in preventing the peatland fire, which can be carried out on a wide scale by exploiting the available canal network through the overall and integrated canal blocking in unity of peatland hydraulics. The canal blocking due to the five types of canal blocking classification, which is intended to back the discussion of peatland, can give the ecology and society economic impacts that include supporting the natural vegetation recovery, preparation of water supply along season on the peatland hydrologic unity, and to be preventing drought and also the fire that are often happened in the dry season. Land use is suggested based on customization: agriculture and plantation in designated areas, adaptive vegetation in limited plantation zones, and protected areas restored to serve as safeguarded vegetation zones.  © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.",,,,,1311,,,,,,,,Institute of Physics,,English,,,Scopus,,,,Issue: 1 Journal Abbreviation: IOP Conf.

Unfortunately, coral reefs around the globe are declining. Thus, apart from marine protected areas, active conservation and restoration efforts are extremely important. In this study, Acropora formosa nubbins were transplanted and their performance was monitored, with the main aim to evaluate their survival and growth in comparison with natural reef. The extension growth, proto-branch generation, mortality and survival were assessed for one year in Tioman Island, Malaysia. The A. formosa growth rates ranged from 0.59±0.07 to 1.20±0.03 cm mth-1 in the nursery and from 0.55±0.13 to 0.72±0.11 cm mth-1 in the natural reef. The transplanted corals exhibited higher growth rates, particularly during the early period of transplant, and, moreover, had higher proto-branch generation rates compared with the natural colony. However, their survival was low, mostly due to predation by fish and other corallivores. Seasonal variations in coral growth were observed, with faster rates during the inter-monsoon period (March-April and October-November). This study documented the success of A. formosa transplantation and its application in coral nurseries in Malaysian waters. Coral transplantation is highly beneficial for active coral reef restoration and conservation. Nevertheless, continuous long term systematic monitoring is needed to have greater understanding of A. formosa growth and dynamics in the tropical coral reef ecosystems. © 2023, BIOFLUX SRL.

This error led to the results of SELw,24h reported in the original publication being underestimated by several decibels (~2–4 dB). The areas reported to be affected by ADD noise were therefore also incorrect in the original publication. Although this error requires a correction to the published results, the overall conclusions of the paper remain unaffected. ADDs deployed at aquaculture sites remain a source of underwater noise pollution which could impact non-target species such as harbour porpoises at significant distances from aquaculture sites, and noise levels are still predicted to exceed auditory impairment thresholds for this species over a 24-hr period (SELs: TTS = 153 dB re 1 ?Pa2s and PTS = 173 dB re 1 ?Pa2s) based on the most up-to-date marine mammal noise impact criteria (NMFS, 2018; Southall et al., 2019).

Impacts to these intricately balanced environments include declining fish populations, degradation of coral reefs and other vital habitats, threats to rare or endangered species, and loss of artifacts and resources that represent the diverse cultural heritage of the United States. The effects of these losses are significant and jeopardize the social and economic fabric of the nation. In the United States and around the world, marine protected areas (MPAs) are increasingly recognized as an important and promising management tool for mitigating or buffering some of these impacts. When used effectively and as a part of a broader ecosystembased approach to management, MPAs can help to restore and maintain healthy marine and Great Lakes environments by contributing to the overall protection of critical marine habitats and resources. In this way, effective MPAs also can offer social and economic opportunities for current and future generations, such as tourism, biotechnology, fishing, education, and scientific research. MPAs are designated and managed at all levels of government by a variety of agencies including parks, fisheries, wildlife, natural resource and historic resource departments, among others. U.S. MPAs have been established by well over 100 legal authorities, with some federal and state agencies managing more than one MPA program, each with its own legal purpose. There are approximately 1,700 existing MPAs in the United States that have been established by federal, state, territorial, and local governments to protect and conserve the nation's rich natural and cultural marine heritage and sustainable production resources. These MPAs have been designated to achieve a myriad of conservation objectives, ranging from conservation of biodiversity hotspots, to preservation of sunken historic vessels, to protection of spawning aggregations important to commercial and recreational fisheries. Similarly, the level of protection provided by these MPAs ranges from fully protected or no-take marine reserves to sites allowing multiple uses, including fishing, recreational, and industrial uses. Recognizing the significant role that U.S. MPAs play in conserving marine heritage and sustainable use, and the lack of a national institution for comprehensive MPA planning, coordination, and support, Presidential Executive Order 13158 of May 26, 2000 (Order), found in Appendix D of this document, calls for the development of a National System of Marine Protected Areas (national system). The Order clearly calls for a national and not a federal system, and requires collaboration not only with other federal agencies, but also with coastal states and territories, tribes, Regional Fishery Management Councils, and other entities, as appropriate, including the MPA Federal Advisory Committee. The Order further specifies that the national system be scientifically based, comprehensive, and represent the nation's diverse marine ecosystems and natural and cultural resources. To provide a blueprint for building the National System of MPAs,1 the Order calls for the development of a framework for a National System of MPAs and directs the establishment of a National MPA Center (MPA Center) within the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to lead the system's development and implementation. This final Framework for the National System of MPAs of the United States of America (Framework) is the result of a multi-year development effort. The first draft Framework received over 11,000 comment submissions (composed of comments from 100 individual commenters and a petition from nearly 11,000 people) during its September 2006 to February 2007 public comment period. A second draft addressing these comments was published for public comment from March-May 2008, and received 34 public comment submissions. The MPA Federal Advisory Committee also provided two sets of recommendations on the Framework that have contributed significantly to its final form. The Framework recognizes that U.S. MPA programs can achieve more efficient, effective conservation of the nation's important natural and cultural resources by working together rather than separately, and that many solutions require collaboration across programs with their own individual mandates, levels of government, and even international boundaries. It proposes a national system that is, initially, an assemblage of existing MPA sites, systems, and networks established and managed by federal, state, territorial, commonwealth, tribal, or local governments, acknowledging and building upon the contributions of these foundation programs. In addition, the Framework outlines collaborative, transparent processes for MPA programs at all levels of government to work together at regional, national, and international levels and with public participation to achieve common conservation objectives through comprehensive MPA planning; identification of enhanced or new MPAs that may be needed; and support for improved MPA science, stewardship, and effectiveness. © 2010 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.

Ornithology has made a major contribution to nature conservation by virtue of this popular support. The value of birds as environmental indicators has been greatly enhanced by voluntary data collection on a wide scale over many years. Habitat loss and degradation are the main causes of species decline, even though other factors may contribute to extinction. More research should address the causes of decline at an early stage, while the chance of recovery is highest. The geographical ranges of native bird species should be maintained, both to avoid the risk of local or wider extinction and to enable people to enjoy them as part of their normal experience. To maintain species ranges, conservation must be incorporated in policies affecting the wider countryside and the sea. This is as important as managing protected areas. The management of protected areas can be successful only in the context of sympathetic management of the surrounding countryside. The Biodiversity Convention requires countries to produce national conservation plans and strategies. This offers ornithologists an unprecedented opportunity to contribute to conservation by developing explicit objectives and specific targets for the maintenance (or restoration) of numbers and distributions of species and of extent and quality of habitats. Targets should be ambitious but realistic and be sufficiently precise as to be testable. Predictive models have the potential to support conservation advice, but traditional natural history studies have proved vital in the past and theory could not replace them. Detailed ecological research with long data runs is the ideal basis for conservation action. But urgency demands shorter studies, informed by ecological intuition and knowledge and reaching specific recommendations for action. Conservation actions should be treated as experiments so that techniques can be improved progressively. This applies both to the management of nature reserves and to habitat management stemming from broader policy measures (for example, in Environmentally Sensitive Areas). Monitoring across a wide species base is essential because the threats to wildlife are unpredictable. Birds have proven to be successful indicators because they are highly visible, are enthusiastically counted by volunteers and respond to a wide variety of environmental impacts. Threshold levels, indicating the normal upper and lower levels of variation (for instance, in numbers or breeding success), are needed in order to trigger prompt remedial action. Monitoring, research and conservation action must be taken forward internationally. Integrated and common approaches enable exchange of data and information and reinforce national actions across the range. Existing data need to be made more accessible bygreater collaboration and openness and by the use of computerization. Ornithologists need to build stronger partnerships, both with other biologists and with decision?makers across the range of land?use and economic policy. This will be helped by better communication built on clear but simple messages for non?biologists. The training of future ecologists should take into account the wide range of skills required by the expanding discipline of conservation. Copyright © 1995, Wiley Blackwell.

Considering how species differ in their propensity to move within and between MPAs is therefore a key consideration for multi-species MPA network design. Here, we propose a conceptual framework to incorporate ecological processes that affect movement at multiple life stages into the MPA network design process. We illustrate how our framework can be implemented using a set of hypothetical species that represent regional trait diversity in coastal British Columbia, Canada. We focused on two ecological processes: (1) dispersal during the larval phase and (2) daily home range movement during the adult phase. To identify functional connectivity patterns, we used a biophysical model to simulate larval dispersal, and then prioritized highly-connected patches using a reserve selection algorithm. To ensure that individual reserves were commensurate with home ranges, we also imposed reserve size constraints. Candidate areas for protection were identified based on multi-species connectivity patterns and home range size constraints. Collectively, this conceptual framework offers a flexible approach to multi-species, cross-life stage conservation planning, which can be further adapted to address complex life histories. As marine conservation efforts around the globe aim to design ecologically connected networks of protected areas, the integration of movement and connectivity data throughout ontogeny will be a key component of effective multi-species MPA network design. © 2017",,93-100,,,216,,,,,,,,,,English,,,Scopus,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
