Design strategies for the Northern Shelf Bioregional Marine Protected Area Network / Rebecca G. Martone, Carolyn K Robb, Katie SP Gale, Alejandro Frid, Chris McDougall, and Emily Rubidge.: Fs70-5/2021-024E-PDF

"This paper focuses exclusivelyon Goal 1 of the Canada – BC MPA Network Strategy (2014), which specifies the protection and maintenance of marine biodiversity, ecological representation and special natural features. We developed ecological design strategies for the MPA network in the NSB. These include spatial ecological conservation targets specifying how much of each ecological conservation priority (or feature) an MPA network aims to protect, and approaches for determining the size, shape, and protection levels of MPAs, as well as the connectivity, representation, and replication of ecological conservation priorities"--Abstract.
