Evaluating the effectiveness of a large multi‐use MPA in protecting Key Biodiversity Areas for marine predators
Aim Marine protected areas can serve to regulate harvesting and conserve biodiversity.
Within large multi‐use MPAs, it is often unclear to what degree critical sites of biodiversity …

Marine important bird and biodiversity areas for penguins in Antarctica, targets for conservation action
Global targets for area-based conservation and management must move beyond threshold-
based targets alone and must account for the quality of such areas. In the Southern Ocean …

Male Antarctic fur seals: neglected food competitors of bioindicator species in the context of an increasing Antarctic krill fishery
The fishery for Antarctic krill is currently managed using a precautionary, ecosystem-based
approach to limiting catch, with performance indices from a long-term monitoring program …

Maritime traffic trends around the southern tip of Africa–Did marine noise pollution contribute to the local penguins' collapse?
The rapid increase in seaborn trade since the 1990s has resulted in an increase in vessel-
derived noise pollution, yet there is little evidence linking these activities to a decline in …

Commercial fishery no-take zones for African penguins minimize fisheries losses at the expense of conservation gains
AM McInnes, EA Weideman… - ICES Journal of …, 2024 - academic.oup.com
The African penguin population has declined precipitously in recent decades, and if current
rates of decline persist, this species could become extinct in the wild by 2035. Resource …
