An ingenious proposal for scaling up marine protection | The Nature Conservancy
Island and coastal nations need to protect their waters to keep the oceans healthy. But they often have lots of debt and aren't able to prioritize ocean conservation over other needs. The team at The Nature Conservancy sees a way to solve both problems at once: restructuring a nation's debt in exchange for its government's commitment to protect coastal areas. Learn more about how "Blue Bonds for Conservation" work -- and how you can help unlock billions of dollars for the oceans. This ambitious plan is a part of the Audacious Project, TED's initiative to inspire and fund global change. (Voiced by Ladan Wise)

These are the Ocean's Protected Areas—and We Need More | National Geographic
The ocean faces many challenges, but has the extraordinary power to replenish when it is protected. Marine protected areas facilitate resilience and recovery for degraded areas of the ocean, and offer opportunities to rebuild stocks of commercially important species. Additionally, protected marine ecosystems can offer long term economic and recreational benefits which can be enjoyed for generations to come, provided that proper enforcement and oversight is practiced within these areas.

IUCN Global Standard for Marine Protected Areas
The IUCN Global Standard for Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) is a synthesis of the existing IUCN Green List Standard for Protected and Conserved Areas, together with current relevant policies taken from approved IUCN Resolutions and guidance documents. Designed to support governments, agencies, NGOs, donors, community-based organisations, MPA managers and many others, this document brings all this information together for the first time into this single format to inform the fair and effective design and management of MPAs.

What is a marine protected area? | WWF
Our ocean is an awe-inspiring ecosystem that covers two thirds of our planet and provides us with food, energy, and also protects us from the impacts of climate change and extreme weather. But the ocean and its inhabitants are in peril.
Marine protected areas are ocean sanctuaries, protected by law with the aim of providing a safe haven for species and habitats.
In this video, we hear from Sean about our mission to fully protect at least a third of UK seas by 2030. By protecting our beautiful ocean, we’re providing long term benefits for all.
Everyone has the power to make a difference to ocean recovery, that’s why we launched the Ocean Hero campaign in partnership with Sky Ocean Rescue. There are lots of ways you can get involved and make a difference.

Why Are Marine Protected Areas Important?
Scripps Oceanography marine ecologist Octavio Aburto is passionate about using science to support marine conservation. In this first episode of Wavelengths, Scripps alumna Kate Furby talks to Aburto about his work on Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), fisheries, and coastal habitats. For the past two decades, Aburto has been working in Cabo Pulmo, a small marine reserve in Baja California Sur, Mexico, where conservation efforts have allowed fish to replenish and recover, benefiting the ocean environment and the economy.

Marine Protected Areas: A Winning Card For Sustainable Tourism
The Mediterranean Sea is as beautiful as it is fragile. Today it is under threat. Marine Protected Areas are effective tools for ensuring marine ecosystems are protected, natural resources are used sustainably, and that our natural heritage is maintained.
WWF is working with partners to strengthen and expand the network of MPAs in the Mediterranean. An effective MPA system is needed to ensure that the oceans recuperate, continue to store carbon dioxide, that fish stocks recover and that coastlines are protected from harsh climatic conditions.

What Are Marine Protected Areas?
Our Oceans are single-handedly limiting climate change by absorbing 30% of CO2 emissions and 90% of the Earth's extra heat. And yet, we send 80% of our land pollution to the ocean.
So, what can we do to stop this? Conservationists suggest the idea of Marine Protected Areas or MPAs. But what is it, and how much of the ocean would we need to protect? Watch our video to find out!

Marine Biodiversity Networking Friday w NECCTON New Copernicus Capability for Trophic Ocean Networks
On March 8th, 2024, we had a special session with Dr Stefano Ciavatta and Dr Sergi Pérez-Jorge, focusing on the ongoing European project NECCTON: “New Copernicus capability for trophic ocean networks “. The ambition of NECCTON is to transform the current operational capability to predict and protect the biodiversity of marine ecosystems. NECCTON is developing a new modelling framework and novel products for fisheries, pollution and benthic habitats. This will enable the Europe-wide Copernicus Marine Service to better inform ocean policymakers, managers and publics on the sustainable management of marine resources. Two case studies will be presented showing the use of the ecological model SEAPODYM (spatially explicit prey model). The first study showing the influence of temperature and prey...

Callum Roberts Explains The Importance Of Marine Protected Areas
Back in the 1880s, UK Fishermen caught 17 times more fish than they do today. We have depleted our coastal seas’ fish populations, but how can we change this? The University of York’s Professor Callum Roberts explains why marine recovery around our coastlines is possible and how marine protected areas could see our seas leaping with life once again.

On March 8th, 2024, we had a special session with Dr Stefano Ciavatta and Dr Sergi Pérez-Jorge, focusing on the ongoing European project NECCTON: “New Copernicus capability for trophic ocean networks “. The ambition of NECCTON is to transform the current operational capability to predict and protect the biodiversity of marine ecosystems. NECCTON is developing a new modelling framework and novel products for fisheries, pollution and benthic habitats. This will enable the Europe-wide Copernicus Marine Service to better inform ocean policymakers, managers and publics on the sustainable management of marine resources. Two case studies will be presented showing the use of the ecological model SEAPODYM (spatially explicit prey model). The first study showing the influence of temperature and prey distribution on the movement patterns of three species of baleen whales in the mid-North Atlantic, and a second study providing novel information on the cetacean presence in the remote area of the Great Meteor seamount and the effect of regional oceanography on the predator distribution. NECCTON is a UN Ocean Decade Action associated to the Marine Life 2030 programme.
PROGRAMME
00:00:00 - Introductions, Irene Martins, CIIMAR, Portugal.
00:03:17 - The NECCTON project: making marine ecosystems models operational, Stefano Ciavatta, Mercator Ocean International, France.
00:28:17 - The use of the ecological model SEAPODYM to study cetaceans, Sergi Pérez-Jorge, IMAR/OKEANOS, Portugal.
00:47:32 - Q&A, moderated by Irene Martins.
SPEAKERS
Stefano Ciavatta
(Mercator Ocean International, France)
The NECCTON project: making marine ecosystems models operational
Stefano is the lead of the Marine Ecosystems group at Mercator Ocean international, the organization implementing the European Copernicus Marine Service. He got a PhD in Environmental Science at the University of Venice, Italy in 2004. Stefano’s background is biogeochemical modelling and data assimilation, applied to the prediction of marine ecosystem indicators, quantification of biogeochemical fluxes and analysis of ocean trophic webs. He is co-chair of the Marine Ecosystem Analysis and Prediction Task Team of Ocean Predict. He is the lead of the European NECCTON project.
Sergi Pérez-Jorge
(Institute of Marine Research-IMAR/Institute of Marine Sciences-Okeanos, University of the Azores, Portugal)
The use of the ecological model SEAPODYM to study cetaceans
Sergi is a quantitative ecologist with particular interest in the relationship between the distribution of marine top predators and their prey at multiple spatial and temporal scales. He is part of the Azores Whale Lab - Cetacean Ecology Group, which has carried out cetacean research off the most remote archipelago in the North Atlantic for the last 20 years and applies that knowledge to aid in their conservation. He leads the case study “Monitoring marine mammals in the Azores region” within the European NECTON project.
MODERATOR
Irene Martins
(Interdisciplinary Centre of Marine and Environmental Research-CIIMAR, Portugal)
Irene Martins holds a PhD in Ecology and is the Principal Investigator (PI) of the Marine Ecosystem Modeling team at CIIMAR (MEMO). Her research focuses on constructing ecological models of marine organisms and ecosystems to elucidate their dynamics and forecast variations induced by various disturbance factors, including climate change, plastics, nutrients, pollutants, among others. She is keen on employing multidimensional approaches to marine ecosystems, integrating diverse numerical and technological tools to develop robust numerical frameworks supporting the sustainable management and conservation of these ecosystems.

He is part of the Azores Whale Lab - Cetacean Ecology Group, which has carried out cetacean research off the most remote archipelago in the North Atlantic for the last 20 years and applies that knowledge to aid in their conservation. He leads the case study “Monitoring marine mammals in the Azores region” within the European NECTON project.

Irene Martins holds a PhD in Ecology and is the Principal Investigator (PI) of the Marine Ecosystem Modeling team at CIIMAR (MEMO). Her research focuses on constructing ecological models of marine organisms and ecosystems to elucidate their dynamics and forecast variations induced by various disturbance factors, including climate change, plastics, nutrients, pollutants, among others. She is keen on employing multidimensional approaches to marine ecosystems, integrating diverse numerical and technological tools to develop robust numerical frameworks supporting the sustainable management and conservation of these ecosystems.

Back in the 1880s, UK Fishermen caught 17 times more fish than they do today. We have depleted our coastal seas’ fish populations, but how can we change this? The University of York’s Professor Callum Roberts explains why marine recovery around our coastlines is possible and how marine protected areas could see our seas leaping with life once again.
