摘要: We provide a case study to demonstrate how key ecosystem function of coral reefs (habitat provision) co-benefits both sharks and humans. Spawning grounds the blackmouth catshark Galeus melastomus were discovered using seabed video surveys on Mingulay Reef Complex, seascape cold-water off western Scotland. habitats environmentally similar across years. Shark abundance G. melastomus, species valued by recreational sea angling industry, was significantly higher nearer reef habitats. Our demonstrates local vulnerable marine (VME) helps maintain life stages shark populations provides socioeconomic benefits. Evidence for between corals, humans compelling identifying protecting VMEs.
