A monitoring framework for SG̲áan K̲ínghlas-Bowie Seamount Marine Protected Area, British Columbia, Canada / Cherisse Du Preez, Skil Jáada Vanessa Zahner, Heidi Gartner, Laís Chaves, Charles Hannah, Kelly...: Fs70-5/2024-025E-PDF

"The SG̲áan K̲ínghlas-Bowie Seamount Marine Protected Area (SK̲-B MPA) is co-managed by the Haida Nation (as represented by the Council of the Haida Nation, CHN) and the Government of Canada (as represented by the Minister of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, DFO) to conserve and protect the unique biodiversity and biological productivity of the area. In 2019, the SK̲-B MPA Management Board published the management plan detailing the ecological conservation goals of the MPA. In this research document, we provide an ecosystem review and list indicators (ecosystem components and metrics), protocols (e.g., tools), and strategies related to monitoring the SK̲-B MPA conservation objectives. … The information in this paper was presented in support of a Canadian Science Advisory process (peer-reviewed May 3-5, 2022) and will be used by practitioners and managers to develop an appropriate and effective monitoring plan for the SK̲-B MPA. This monitoring framework covers a great deal of generally and regionally relevant information and may support the development of monitoring frameworks and plans for other protected areas, especially in the case of the proposed Tang.ɢwan - ḥačxʷiqak - Tsigis (TḥT) MPA to the south"--Abstract, page viii.
