Voices From the Coast: Stakeholder Participation and Perception on Creating a Marine Protected Area

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores participatory processes in the context of marine conservation, with a specific focus on recent initiatives undertaken by the Apulia region in Italy to establish a new Marine Protected Area (MPA). Employing a qualitative cross‐sectional methodology, the study investigates how local communities perceive and engage with the ...

Estimating Spatiotemporal Fishing Effort of Trawlers with Vessel-Monitoring System Data: A Case Study of the Sea Area of the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea, China

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Measuring the distribution of the fishing effort of trawlers is of great significance for describing marine fishery activities, quantifying fishing systems in terms of marine ecological pressure, and revising the regulations of fishing.

Dietary partitioning mediates species coexistence in the high seas area of northwest Pacific

Ecography, EarlyView.
Niche partitioning, manifesting along various axes of the ecological niche, is a fundamental mechanism mediating species coexistence in a system. However, the emergence of many species in marine ecosystems would face considerable constraints in achieving coexistence through spatiotemporal differentiation mechanisms under the framework of niche ...

Linking species distribution models with population abundance to support adaptive fisheries management

Ecography, EarlyView.
Understanding how environmental variability structures essential fish habitat (EFH) is central to managing keystone populations in dynamic marine ecosystems. Using nearly three decades of standardized survey data (1994–2021) from the Adriatic Sea, we present the first basin‐scale, process‐based framework linking estimated habitat suitability and ...

Preservation of juvenile hake (Merluccius merluccius L) in the western Mediterranean demersal trawl fishery by using sorting grids

Scientia Marina, 2004
The Mediterranean fishery has experienced a decline in catches over the past 20 years due to an excessive increase in effort caused by both increased trawler engine power and rapid technological advances in fishing technology and fish location.

Nested Carbon Governance in Southeast Asia: Towards Just Nature‐Based Solutions?

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nature‐based solutions (NbS) have gained prominence as an integrated approach to addressing climate change and biodiversity loss while supporting sustainable development. Yet, their implementation across Southeast Asia remains fragmented and often contested.

Distribution of Bottom Trawling Effort in the Yellow Sea and East China Sea.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Bottom trawling is one of the most efficient fishing activities, but serious and persistent ecological issues have been observed by fishers, scientists and fishery managers. Although China has applied the Beidou fishing vessel position monitoring system (

Trawling-induced change in benthic effect trait composition – A multiple case study

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
IntroductionThe importance of the response-effect trait dichotomy in marine benthic ecology has garnered recent attention. Response traits, characterising species responses to environmental variations, have been a dominant focus in the development of ...

Foreign body ingestions in children and adolescents: A position paper of the European Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) endoscopy special interest group

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Foreign body (FB) ingestion is a relatively frequent occurrence in the pediatric population with multiple potential sequelae. Appropriate intervention may range from urgent endoscopic retrieval to watchful waiting, with multiple variables influencing the decision.
