Understanding the environmental drivers of interactions between predators and humans is critical for public safety management purposes. In marine environment, this issue exemplified by shark-human interactions. The annual shark bite incidence rate (SBIR) in La Réunion (Indian Ocean) among highest world (up to 1 event per 24,000 hours surfing) has experienced a 23-fold increase over 2005-2016 period. Since 1988, 86% events on ocean-users involved surfers off leeward coast, where 96% surfing...
The Introduction of this paper argues that current coastal and ocean management approaches like marine spatial planning (MSP) often do not adequately acknowledge integrate Indigenous Local Knowledge (ILK). This is problematic because how humans value perceive resources integrally linked to they use manage these resources, especially in adapting social-ecological change. Coastal are situated within complex systems culturally, economically, historically politically embedded. Therefore, have...
Here we describe an interdisciplinary and multi-country initiative to develop rapid, participatory methods assess the vulnerability of coastal communities facilitate adaptation climate change in data-poor regions. The were applied Madagascar as a case study. centred on exploratory research exercise two south-west Madagascar, workshop held Antananarivo June 2016, combined with component communicating ocean science stakeholders. It utilised innovative rapid approaches combine global local...
Créée en 2007, La Réserve Naturelle Marine de Réunion (RNMR) vise à préserver un récif frangeant qui s’étend sur près d’une quarantaine kilomètres linéaire côtier la façade occidentale l’île. Rendue fortement attractive par ses nombreux atouts balnéaires, cette côte a été proie une urbanisation croissante au cours des dernières décennies. De façon concomitante, l’accroissement fréquentation et l’apparition nouvelles pratiques nautiques ont alimenté source potentielle d’impacts le milieu,...
