To assess the level of protection and management for coral reefs around the world. The map of MPAs and associated management effectiveness scores were used to adjust pressure from overfishing and destructive fishing in the Reefs at Risk Revisited model (the overfishing threat was reduced one level for partially effective MPAs and two levels for effective MPAs). |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Shapefile of marine protected areas (MPAs) in coral reef regions of the world, including scores of management effectiveness. Sites were scored based on surveys and expert opinion using a 3-point scale as follows: 1) Effective--site is managed sufficiently well that in situ threats are not undermining natural ecosystem function; 2) Partially effective--site is managed such that in situ threats are significantly lower than adjacent non-managed sites, but there may still be some detrimental effects on ecosystem function; and 3) Not Effective--site is unmanaged, or management is insufficient to reduce in situ threats in any meaningful way.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
