The Controversy over Marine Protected Areas : Science meets Policy (2015)
Book
Caveen, A., Polunin, N., Gray, T., & Stead, S. M. (2015). The Controversy over Marine Protected Areas : Science meets Policy. Cham: Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-10957-2

This book is a critical analysis of the concept of marine protected areas (MPAs) particularly as a tool for marine resource management. It explains the reasons for the extraordinary rise of MPAs to the top of the political agenda for marine policy, a...

© 2015 Elsevier Ltd. Addressing the multitude of challenges in marine policy requires an integrated approach that considers the multitude of drivers, pressures, and interests, from several disciplinary angles. Scenarios are needed to harmonise the an... Read More about Defining scenarios of future vectors of change in marine life and associated economic sectors.

Diet as a mechanism of coexistence between intertidal fish species of the U.K. (2015)
Journal Article
Barrett, C. J., Johnson, M. L., & Hull, S. L. (2016). Diet as a mechanism of coexistence between intertidal fish species of the U.K. Hydrobiologia, 768(1), 125-135. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10750-015-2537-1

While the syntopic nature of many intertidal fish communities suggest that resources such as food are shared, little has been done to assess the importance of diet on the coexistence of intertidal fish of the U.K. In this study, six intertidal fish s...

Journal Article
Lonsdale, J., Weston, K., Barnard, S., Boyes, S. J., & Elliott, M. (2015). Integrating management tools and concepts to develop an estuarine planning support system: A case study of the Humber Estuary, Eastern England. Marine pollution bulletin, 100(1), 393-405. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2015.08.017

© 2015. Estuaries are important because of their multiple uses and users which often makes them challenging to manage since management must strike a balance between the needs of users, the estuaries' ecological and economic value and the context of m...

Immigration and early life stages recruitment of the European flounder (Platichthys flesus) to an estuarine nursery: the influence of environmental factors (2015)
Journal Article
Amorim, E., Elliott, M., Ramos, S., & Bordalo, A. A. (2016). Immigration and early life stages recruitment of the European flounder (Platichthys flesus) to an estuarine nursery: the influence of environmental factors. Journal of Sea Research, 107(1), 56-66. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.seares.2015.07.005

Connectivity between coastal spawning grounds and estuarine nurseries is a critical step in the life cycle of many fish species. Larval immigration and transport-associated physical–biological processes are determinants of recruitment success to nurs...
