Structure and spatio-temporal dynamics of the artisanal small-scale fisheries at the future MPA of "Taza" (Algerian coast, SW Mediterranean) (2018)
Journal Article
Boubekri, I., Caveen, A. J., Djebar, A. B., Amara, R., & Mazurek, H. (2018). Structure and spatio-temporal dynamics of the artisanal small-scale fisheries at the future MPA of "Taza" (Algerian coast, SW Mediterranean). Mediterranean Marine Science, 19(3), 555-571. https://doi.org/10.12681/MMS.16192

Artisanal Small-Scale Fisheries (SSFs) are a primordial and very diverse activity in the Mediterranean, also within Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). This diversity is explained in terms of target species, gears, and fishing strategies. The main objecti...

Ecological enhancement techniques to improve habitat heterogeneity on coastal defence structures (2018)
Journal Article
Hall, A. E., Herbert, R. J., Britton, J. R., & Hull, S. L. (2018). Ecological enhancement techniques to improve habitat heterogeneity on coastal defence structures. Estuarine, coastal and shelf science, 210, 68-78. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecss.2018.05.025

Sea level rise and higher storm frequency are increasing the need for the placement of hard coastal defences worldwide. The majority of these defences lack optimal habitats for intertidal species, resulting in low diversity and abundance. The constru...

Protected Area management: Fusion and confusion with the ecosystem services approach (2018)
Journal Article
Hummel, C., Poursanidis, D., Orenstein, D., Elliott, M., Adamescu, M. C., Cazacu, C., …Hummel, H. (2019). Protected Area management: Fusion and confusion with the ecosystem services approach. The Science of the total environment, 651, 2432-2443. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2018.10.033

© 2018 The Authors For many years, Protected Areas (PA) have been an important tool for conserving nature. Recently, also societal aspects have been introduced into PA management via the introduction of the Ecosystem Services (ES) approach. This revi...

Maximizing the benefits of oyster reef restoration for finfish and their fisheries (2018)
Journal Article
Gilby, B. L., Olds, A. D., Peterson, C. H., Connolly, R. M., Voss, C. M., Bishop, M. J., …Schlacher, T. A. (2018). Maximizing the benefits of oyster reef restoration for finfish and their fisheries. Fish and Fisheries, 19(5), 931-947. https://doi.org/10.1111/faf.12301

© 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd Global declines in oyster reefs have resulted in reduced habitat heterogeneity, extent and quality for some coastal finfish, potentially reducing fish populations and catches. It is well established that habitat restora... Read More about Maximizing the benefits of oyster reef restoration for finfish and their fisheries.
