The Great Barrier Reef (GBR) provides a globally significant demonstration of the effectiveness large-scale networks marine reserves in contributing to integrated, adaptive management. Comprehensive review available evidence shows major, rapid benefits no-take areas for targeted fish and sharks, both reef nonreef habitats, with potential fisheries as well biodiversity conservation. Large, mobile species like sharks benefit less than smaller, site-attached fish. Critically, also appear...
Marine protected areas (MPAs) are key tools in addressing the global decline of sharks and rays, marine parks shark sanctuaries various configurations have been established to conserve populations. However, assessments their efficacy compromised by inconsistent terminology, lack standardized approaches assess how MPAs contribute ray conservation, ambiguity about integrate movement data assessment processes. We devised a conceptual framework standardize terms (e.g., protection, contribution,...
Article The Effects of Wave Exposure and Depth on the Morphology Inshore Populations Namibian Kelp, Laminaria schinzii Foslie was published January 1, 1996 in journal Botanica Marina (volume 39, issue 1-6).
The African penguin Spheniscus demersus is endemic to southern Africa and listed overall as "vulnerable". Over the past century, however, Namibian population has been severely reduced currently "critically endangered". Recent trends at Possession, Halifax, Ichaboe Mercury islands, which account for 97% of population, were examined using counts moulting adults active nests peak breeding. Since 1996, adult decreased a rate 2.6% per year. 1990, breeding by 3.7% Island only site where numbers...
Increasingly, natural resource managers see the marine protected areas that they are responsible for as linked social-ecological systems. This requires an equal focus on managing both and human dimensions of estate. Consequently, identification indicators represent Large Scale Marine Protected Areas (LSMPAs) such Great Barrier Reef (GBR) is critical if these values to be properly considered part standard management practice. Assessment monitoring LSMPAs a replicable, collaborative process,...
A species of Griffithsia from southern Natal has been isolated into unialgal culture. Its vegetative and reproductive characters align it with G. schousboei, a previously known only to occur in Portugal, the Mediterranean Caribbean Seas, south Brazil Ghana. This report extends range this alga Natal. Closely related are discussed synonymies recommended.
