[Article]The potential of marginal coastal nursery habitats for the conservation of a culturally important Caribbean marine species – | HALIEUTIQUE MER ET LITTORAL | Scoop.it
Aim: Identifying the potential of marginal habitats for species conservation is of key importance when their core high‐quality habitats are under substantial disturbances and threats. However, there is currently a knowledge gap on how useful marine marginal habitats may be for conserving endangered marine species. Here, we investigate the potentiel of groundwater‐fed coastal areas for the conservation of the queen conch, an economically and culturally important marine gastropod.
