Specially Protected Areas of Mediterranean Importance

Specially Protected Areas of Mediterranean Importance | Biodiversité | Scoop.it

The collaboration platform is a virtual workspace that provides users with resources and tools aiming to facilitate communication and human interactions around Specially Protected Areas of Mediterranean Importance (SPAMI).

What is a SPAMI ?
  • According to the provisions of the SPA/BD Protocol, a SPAMI is a marine and coastal area or on the high seas which may include important features for the conservation of biodiversity in the Mediterranean; contains ecosystems specific to the Mediterranean region or habitats of endangered species; or which are of particular scientific, aesthetic, cultural or educational interest.

Assessing the Effectiveness of Coastal Marine Protected Area Management: Four Learned Lessons for Science Uptake and Upscaling - Marine Science

Assessing the Effectiveness of Coastal Marine Protected Area Management: Four Learned Lessons for Science Uptake and Upscaling - Marine Science | Biodiversité | Scoop.it

For almost two decades, marine protected areas (MPAs) have been a central instrument of coastal conservation and management policies, but concerns about their abilities to meet conservation goals have grown as the number and sizes of MPAs have dramatically increased. This paper describes how a large (15 years) program of transdisciplinary research was used to successfully measure MPA management effectiveness (ME)—how well an MPA is managed, how well it is protecting values, and how well it is achieving the various goals and objectives for which it was created. This paper addresses the co-production and uptake of monitoring-based evidence for assessing ME in coastal MPAs by synthesizing the experiences of this program conducted with MPA managers.

The Marine Mammal Management Toolkit : a tool for managers and policy makers

The Marine Mammal Management Toolkit : a tool for managers and policy makers | Biodiversité | Scoop.it

Marine mammals play a crucial role in marine ecosystem function and climate change resilience by sequestering carbon through the consumption of energy rich plankton and fish. They provide valuable ecosystem services such as ecotourism. Conserving marine mammals provides significant economic, social and cultural benefits to coastal communities.

Marine protected areas show low overlap with projected distributions of seabird populations in Britain and Ireland

 

Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are an important tool for the conservation of seabirds. However, mapping seabird distributions using at-sea surveys or tracking data to inform the designation of MPAs is costly and time-consuming, particularly for far-ranging pelagic species. Here we explore the potential for using predictive distribution models to examine the effectiveness of current MPAs for the conservation of seabirds, using Britain and Ireland as a case study.
