- Title
Improving assessments of marine protected areas.
- Authors
CLAUDE, JOACHIM; GUIDETTI, PAOLO
- Abstract
In this article the authors discuss the ways of improving the assessments for the impacts of marine protected areas (MPAs) in the ecology. The authors cite ways on how to improve the assessments which include accounting for habitat structure and linking the choice of indicators to the objectives of MPA. They reveal some factors that could lead to the dismissal of MPA as an effective management tool, such as inappropriate indicators and discounting relevant covariates.
