Assessing and strengthening community‐based coastal governance

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Community‐based coastal governance is essential for biodiversity conservation and sustainable livelihoods, yet many communities continue to face significant challenges in establishing and sustaining effective governance systems. We sought to improve understanding of the current status of community‐based coastal governance across five countries

Examining the efficacy of a sanctuary to protect sharks in the Galapagos Marine Reserve

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract In 2016, Ecuador established a no‐take marine sanctuary in the northern portion of the Galapagos Marine Reserve (GMR), ostensibly to protect sharks. Arguably because of this, experimental longlining was permitted in the rest of the reserve as part of a compensation package to local fishers. Considering this agreement and very low bycatch rates

Deep-Sea Sea Cucumber Optimization Algorithm

To address the common problems of convergent search mechanisms, significant positive feedback convergence, and susceptibility to local optima in existing swarm intelligence optimization algorithms, this paper proposes a novel continuous optimization method—the Deep-Sea Sea Cucumber Optimization Algorithm (DSSCOA)—based on the survival and foraging ...
