Abstract Marine spatial planning (MSP) is the key to attaining global ocean sustainability targets related blue economy (BE) and inclusive tapping of resources. Although there has been robust progress in promoting MSP, e.g., European Union (EU), most countries have yet develop comprehensive strategies focused on which could affect fragile ecosystems vulnerable livelihoods that are already affected by anthropogenic impacts natural/environmental pressures. Even within EU, MSPs developed only individual or specific maritime zones. One gaps identified literature limited knowledge stakeholder engagement MSP process. Our study tries bridge this gap, we used a mixed research approach—i.e., systematically reviewed 86 articles MSP—and conducted informant interview intending identify what type stakeholders needed process; how, when, where they be involved; how impact sustainable economy? The findings revealed systematic process different at levels temporal scales. In addition, approach involve required based given region's governance region. marine resource user conflicts hamper use resources solved through MSP. for bring fore help design more effective participatory conservation interventions meet targets.

Constructing a Risk Assessment Model for Marine Protected Areas Using Bayesian Network

Published: Jan. 1, 2024

Globally, the sustainable utilization of marine resources and preservation ecological environments have led to establishment protected areas (MPAs), which aim protect biodiversity. However, various factors such as inappropriate anthropogenic activities, illegal fishing, pollution result in failed conservation efforts. This study referenced literature on MPA integrated risks perceived by industry, government, academia use a stochastic approach for building risk assessment model based Bayesian network MPAs. The can help managers select governance measures under random conditions. Using natural conditions simulations, this discovered that increasing management fund law enforcement capacity limiting number tourists are short-term strategies mitigating impact fishing. Mid-term long-term include raising environmental awareness community awareness, time consuming. Limiting is solution coral bleaching. solutions promoting education. results demonstrated different produces outcomes. combined perceptions provide managerial decision-making models managers; thus, information tools be used protecting MPAs future.
