Ecological and economic outcomes of area-based conservation and sustainable fisheries management in the Mediterranean SeaNARA Subscribed
Intergovernmental targets are reinforcing the need for more sustainable fisheries and more effective marine conservation. It is now urgent to understand how area-based conservation and sustainable fisheries management tools contribute to these environmental and socio-economic goals. Here, we systematically reviewed and assessed the outcomes of marine protected areas (accounting for their level of protection and of enforcement)...
Rancho La Brea (RLB) in Los Angeles, USA, is an iconic fossil locality, owing to the high number and diversity of Quaternary vertebrate remains and their excellent preservation. More than a century of study, focused predominantly on large mammals, has provided valuable information along different lines of research, including taxonomy, taphonomy, isotopic ecology, functional morphology, and paleopathology. In order to develop a...
TRY plant trait database – enhanced coverage and open accessNARA Subscribed
Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem properties and their benefits and detriments to people. Plant trait data thus represent the basis for a vast area of research spanning from evolutionary biology, community and functional ecology, to biodivers...
Photo‐identification (photo‐ID) was tested as a means to identify individual small‐spotted catsharks Scyliorhinus canicula . The spotting pattern of the caudal region of S. canicula was used for the tests and revealed that photo‐ID is an efficient method to identify individuals. Photo‐ID is logistically simple, making it a potential alternative to traditional tagging to provide information on the distribution patterns and popu...
