The role of marine habitat mapping in ecosystem-based management

摘要: Cogan, C. B., Todd, B. J., Lawton, P., and Noji, T. 2009. The role of marine habitat mapping in ecosystem-based management. - ICES Journal Marine Science, 66: 2033-2042.Ecosystem-based management (EBM) the related concept large ecosystems (LMEs) are sometimes criticized as being too broad for many research applications. At same time, there is a great need to develop more effectively some substantive scientific methods empower EBM. (MHM) an example applied set field that support EBM directly contribute essential elements conducting integrated ecosystem assessments. This manuscript places MHM practices context with biodiversity models We build case incorporated explicit early process following initial goal-setting within larger programmes. Advances dependent on evolving technological modelling capabilities, conservation targets, policy priorities spatial planning framework. In both cases, adaptive nature these sciences requires parameters, clear objectives, combinations social considerations, multiple parameters assess overlapping viewpoints functions. To examine commonalities between EBM, we also address issues implicit linkages classification, mapping, goals. Policy objectives such sustainability, health, or design protected areas placed combined MHM-EBM context.
