Dear all, On behalf of all the authors, I would like to call your attention to our recent paper in Conservation Biology where we present an overview of ecosystem services from marine mammals, potential indicators, and the case for using of ecosystem service assessments at the stock level, as a step towards implementing ecosystem�\based management of marine mammals.
PDFs are available upon request to [email protected] Thank you Christian Riisager-Simonsen Riisager�\Simonsen, C., Rendon, O., Galatius, A., Olsen, M.T. and Beaumont, N. (2020), Using ecosystem�\services assessments to determine trade�\offs in ecosystem�\based management of marine mammals. Conservation Biology. doi:10.1111/cobi.13512<https://doi.org/10.1111/cobi.13512> Abstract The goal of ecosystem�\based management (EBM) is to support a sustainable and holistic multi-sectored management approach, and is recognized in a number of international policy frameworks. However, it remains unknown how these goals should be linked to assessments and management plans for marine fauna, such as mammals and fish stocks. It appears particularly challenging to carry out trade�\off analyses of various ocean uses without a framework that integrates knowledge of environmental, social, and economic benefits derived from nonstationary marine fauna. We argue this gap can be filled by applying a version of the ecosystem�\service approach at the population level of marine fauna. To advance this idea, we used marine mammals as a case study to demonstrate what indicators could operationalize relevant assessments and deliver an evidence base for the presence of ecosystem services and disservices derived from marine mammals. We found indicators covering common ecosystem service categories feasible to apply; examples of indicator data are already available in the literature for several populations. We encourage further exploration of this approach for application to marina fauna and biodiversity management, with the caveat that conceptual tensions related to the use of the ecosystem service concept itself needs to be addressed to ensure acceptance by relevant stakeholders. ________________________________ Fra: Christian Riisager-Simonsen Sendt: 22. august 2020 21:15:35 Til: [email protected] Emne: New paper on ecosystem services from marine mammals Dear MARMAN manager I would like to hear if the following note could be added to the daily list of new publications �C which I enjoy very much. 1.
