This major textbook provides a broad coverage of the ecological
foundations of marine conservation, including the rationale,
importance and practicalities of various approaches to marine
conservation and management. The scope of the book encompasses an
understanding of the elements of marine biodiversity - from global
to local levels - threats to marine biodiversity, and the structure
and function of marine environments as related to conservation
issues. The authors describe the potential approaches, initiatives
and various options for conservation, from the genetic to the
species, community and ecosystem levels in marine environments.
They explore methods for identifying the units of conservation, and
the development of defensible frameworks for marine conservation.
They describe planning of ecologically integrated conservation
strategies, including decision-making on size, boundaries, numbers
and connectivity of protected area networks. The book also
addresses relationships between fisheries and biodiversity, novel
methods for conservation planning in the coastal zone and the
evaluation of conservation initiatives.
