Overlap between marine predators and proposed Marine Managed Areas on the Patag...
Baylis, Alastair; Lecea, Ander M. De; Tierney, Megan; Orben, Rachael; Ratcliffe, Norman; Wakefield, Ewan; Catry, Paulo; Campioni, Letizia; Costa, MarinaAbstract. Static (fixed-boundary) protected areas are key ocean conservation strategies, and marine higher predator distribution data can play a leading role toward identifying areas for conservation action. The Falkland Islands are a globally significant site for colonial breeding marine higher predators (i.e., seabirds and pinnipeds). However, overlap between marine predators and Falkland Islands proposed Mar...
Important At-Sea areas of colonial breeding marine predators on the Southern Pa...
Baylis, Matthew; Tierney, Megan; Orben, Rachael; Evans, Victoria Warwick; Wakefield, Ewan; Grecian, William James; Trathan, Phil; Reisinger, Ryan R.The Patagonian Shelf Large Marine Ecosystem supports high levels of biodiversity and endemism and is one of the most productive marine ecosystems in the world. Despite the important role marine predators play in structuring the ecosystems, areas of high diversity where multiple predators congregate remains poorly known on the Patagonian Shelf. Here, we used biotelemetry and biologging tags to track the movement...
Spatial scales of marine conservation management for breeding seabirds
Oppel, Steffen; Bolton, Mark; Carneiro, Ana Paula B.; Dias, Maria P.; Green, Jonathan A.; Masello, Juan F.; Phillips, Richard A.; Owen, EllieKnowing the spatial scales at which effective management can be implemented is fundamental for conservation planning. This is especially important for mobile species, which can be exposed to threats across large areas, but the space use requirements of different species can vary to an extent that might render some management approaches inefficient. Here the space use patterns of seabirds were examined to provid...
Framework for mapping key areas for marine megafauna to inform Marine Spatial P...
Augé, Amélie A.; Dias, Maria P.; Lascelles, Ben; Baylis, Alastair M.M.; Black, Andy; Boersma, P. Dee; Catry, Paulo; Crofts, Sarah; Galimberti, FilippoMarine Spatial Planning (MSP) is becoming a key management approach throughout the world. The process includes the mapping of how humans and wildlife use the marine environment to inform the development of management measures. An integrated multi-species approach to identifying key areas is important for MSP because it allows managers a global representation of an area, enabling them to see where management can...
