Marine Conservation and Marine Protected Areas
2019Marine protected areas are important tools for the conservation of marine biodiversity, providing refuge for harvested species and mitigating the negative impacts of human activities in marine ecosystems. However, delineating sites for protection within effective MPA networks is a formidable challenge. A primary objective of MPA planning is to optimize
