No escape from microplastics: Contamination of reef manta ray feeding areas in a remote, protected archipelago

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We found microplastic contamination of the upper water column around the Chagos Archipelago, a remote, protected archipelago in the central Indian Ocean. Key aggregation areas for reef manta rays (Mobula alfredi) were contaminated, putting them at risk of microplastic ingestion.

Spatial conservation priorities for marine megafaunal predators: Multi‐taxon versus taxon‐specific approaches

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Conservation for marine megafaunal predators needs to improve as they are key for ecosystem functioning. We show that different marine predator taxonomic groups have heterogeneous distributions resulting in different spatial conservation priority areas. Current Mediterranean MPAs are failing to sufficiently cover their distributions.

The U.S. Ecosystem‐Based Fisheries Management Policy and Road Map: Assessing Progress and Applying Lessons Learned

Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The need for ecosystem‐based fisheries management (EBFM) is growing more urgent as environmental changes, species shifts, new ocean uses, and other factors force oceans toward novel states. In the United States, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA Fisheries) developed an EBFM Policy in ...

Anticipating the winds of change: A baseline assessment of Northeastern US continental shelf surficial substrates

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract The introduction of thousands of wind turbines along the North American Atlantic continental shelf over the next decade will constitute the largest regional change in marine substrates since the retreat of the Laurentide Ice Sheet over 14,000 years ago. Here, two large data sets, SMAST drop camera survey (242,949 samples, 2003 to 2019) and the
