Yet, most of what is being protected is under partial protection, with often heterogeneous levels of protection. Here, we assess the protection level based on fishing regulations of 27 Spanish Mediterranean nationally and regionally designated MPAs and identify the fishing gears allowed within the partially protected areas. The level of protection from fishing is assigned based on the number of allowed fishing gears within MPA borders and their potential ecological impact. Approximately 0.8 % of the total area of the Spanish Mediterranean Sea is covered by the included MPAs, of which 63 % is incompatible with the conservation of nature and 7 % is fully or highly protected. Our results show that the composition of allowed gears varies across partially protected areas within the same level of protection (i.e. lightly protected areas) and regions. Including the reasoning behind specific gear restrictions on fishing regulations that apply to each MPA could help to understand the context of each MPA, and improve MPA effectiveness.

Appropriate management of OOH marine mammals is considered. This may simply involve monitoring to better understand the situation, to protect the welfare of the animal(s) and to ensure that members of the public are kept safe. However, on occasion, further intervention may be required, such as providing safe areas for the OOH marine mammal(s), encouraging the animal(s) to move, capture and translocation, or euthanasia. Regardless of the action taken, educating and communicating with the public are key elements of OOH marine mammal management. Lessons can be learned from human-wildlife conflict and rewilding scenarios. The potential for OOH marine mammals to be pioneers seeking new habitat, contributing to species resilience in the face of rapidly changing environments, and how to include them in conservation legislation and management planning are considered.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48427,"journal":{"name":"Marine Policy","volume":"177 ","pages":"Article 106652"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143682462","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigates whether Electronic Monitoring (EM) providing Fully Documented Fisheries (FDF) can fulfil the same objectives as some TMs, making these TMs redundant without compromising the sustainability of fish stocks. We developed a methodology to evaluate the different TMs and applied it in a case study focused on the Kattegat. Our findings indicate that most gear TMs could become redundant under FDF. In Kattegat, nearly half of the regulations, as well as the most complex ones, belong to this category. Hence, FDF could facilitate a notable simplification of the management system in this area. While some TMs remain necessary to incentivise selective fishing practices, FDF facilitates more flexible and adaptive management, aligning with the dynamic nature of fisheries. This study suggests that FDF could address the longstanding criticism of the complexity in the current management system and return responsibility of avoiding unwanted catches to the fishers. These findings are particularly relevant for fisheries managers, as regulatory simplification through FDF can create strong, long-term incentives for fishers to adopt EM.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48427,"journal":{"name":"Marine Policy","volume":"177 ","pages":"Article 106684"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143682461","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current Norwegian regulatory framework faces criticism when it comes to its ability to generate sustainable practices within the industry, and many also argue that current governmental incentives for innovation are insufficient in light of escalating environmental externalities. In addition, a lack of consensus among stakeholders regarding such impacts still remain. Given this scenario, understanding the diverse perspectives of stakeholders is believed to raise awareness of diverse viewpoints, foster deeper understanding, and build consensus across different sectors. Thus, this paper aims to investigate stakeholder perceptions concerning the current Norwegian regulatory landscape for salmon farming. Through semi-structured interviews with government officials, experts, fishers, industry and ENGO representatives, our research identifies five pivotal themes: (1) challenges with the current Traffic Light System - the most important aquaculture regulation in Norway, (2) salmon lice control versus farmed salmon’s welfare, (3) supervision challenges and regulatory loopholes, (4) the call for policies that support technological innovation, (5) and perceptions of the industry and the call for more collaboration.
