Our new pub provides a great intro to the State Marine Aquaculture Policy Dashboard: a publicly-available, living database collating state-level policy and legislative data related to the management of the mariculture industry in the United States journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

I am very proud of our paper, led by @DavidGillMarine. Implementing a mix of MPA types based on our findings could result in more equitable outcomes for people, while also achieving greater conservation gains. Check it out: pnas.org/doi/abs/10.107…
David Gill@DavidGillMarine

Our new #PNAS paper comparing different types of marine protected areas (MPAs) shows that well-managed fished MPAs can provide strong conservation benefits, even similar to no-fishing MPAs pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Very excited to see this paper out - read Jenn's thread to learn more about what we found about spatial variation in the ecosystem services provided by seagrass beds.

Check out this paper where we synthesize and harmonize the large collection of MPA design guidelines in the scientific literature. Awesome work leading this effort @echelle_burns!
emLab UC Santa Barbara@emLabUCSB

We developed a set of synthesized marine protected area design guidelines to help streamline conservation planning and decision making to achieve desired objectives. Read the paper in @ConservationSP and check out the summary below 🧵conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/cs…

Excited to share this paper, led by @ThinkDeepReef, where we explore the broad diversity of fishery restrictions used in #MarineProtectedAreas around the world to help balance conservation and local resource use goals ⬇️
Dom Andradi-Brown@ThinkDeepReef

New paper! We discuss how #MarineProtectedAreas (#MPAs) with diverse fishing restrictions achieve gains for nature. We recommend that countries blend locally-appropriate protection levels — from full to partial protection — to achieve conservation goals. cc to #IMPAC5 👇🧵(1/9)
