Well‐designed and effectively managed networks of marine reserves can be effective tools
for both fisheries management and biodiversity conservation. Connectivity, the demographic …

Acoustic telemetry has helped overcome many of the challenges faced when studying the
movement ecology of aquatic species, allowing to obtain unprecedented amounts of data …

Conservation behavior is a relatively new interdisciplinary field aimed at investigating how
proximate and ultimate aspects of animal behavior can be of value in preventing the loss of …

Management areas are used in marine spatial planning to conserve biodiversity of marine
ecosystems and to protect fish from fishing pressure. To evaluate the effectiveness of these …

Carbonate budgets dynamically balance production and loss of calcium carbonate (CaCO3)
on coral reefs. To sustain or expand the coral reef framework, CaCO3 production by …

Marine reserves are assumed to protect a wide range of species from deleterious effects
stemming from exploitation. However, some species, due to their ecological characteristics …

The ecologically and socio-economically important marine ecosystems of Europe are facing
severe threats from a variety of human impacts. To mitigate and potentially reverse some of …

The success of MPAs in conserving fishing resources and protecting marine biodiversity
relies strongly on how well they meet their planned (or implicit) management goals. From a …

Background Over the past 15 years, the integration of localised passive telemetry networks
into centralised data repositories has greatly enhanced our ability to monitor the presence …

Body size has been identified as a key driver of home-range area. Despite considerable
research into home-range allometry, the relatively high variability in this relationship among …
