Tho’ #MarineSpatialPlanning is being adopted by many countries, whether social, ecological & economic goals are reached is not well known. Dr. Rachel Zuercher et al. developed & tested a #TheoryBased #evaluation that holistically examines processes & outcomes doi.org/10.1016/j.ocec…

#TheoryBased #evaluation (with theories of change!) can help #holistically explore the process & outcomes of marine spatial planning. New paper, led by Dr. Rachel Zuercher w/ a wonderful group of collaborators!sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Time to take action on conserving one of the largest coralline algal beds in the world: 📍 only 1 biodiversity hotspot is currently protected 📍 Bottom trawling = major historical threat 📍Oil&gas expansion will cause cumulative impacts 📍Mesophotic beds are scarcely protected

This large-scale assessment led by @Biol_NSchubert and Rafael Magris reveals the importance of rhodolith beds as habitats for threatened, endemic, and commercial species, and identifies hotspots for biodiversity that are still largely unprotected doi.org/10.1111/ddi.13…
