Abstract

The marine environment is highly species-rich and home to hundreds of thousands of species along with the diverse habitats that support them. Humans also use our marine waters for a range of activities from fishing, to shipping, to recreation. These human activities may negatively impact the quality of the marine environment, damaging sensitive habitats and harming marine species. Marine conservation efforts are therefore essential for protecting the ocean’s biodiversity and ensuring that society uses marine resources sustainably.
