Lessons from Lyme Bay (UK) to inform policy, management, and monitoring of Marine Protected Areas

Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) demonstrate promise for increasing ecosystem resilience and reversing habitat and population declines, but outcomes vary considerably from context to context. Partially protected areas offer a compromise between ecological recovery and the social needs of local communities, but their success is contingent on an array of factors.

The management of our coastal waters plays an important role in protecting and conserving our marine ecosystems. The Marine Conservation Team at the MMO are responsible for the implementation of management in certain marine protected areas (MPA) in English waters.

We will be writing a series of blog posts explaining what and how we manage these MPAs, starting at the beginning, with what is an MPA?

The latest State of Nature Report rings yet another alarm bell on the biodiversity crisis in the UK, showing major declines in many species since monitoring began in 1970. Since this date, species have declined by 19% on average and one in six are now at risk of being lost in the UK.
