Information on coastal erosion risk is essential for effective coastal management. Ideally, risk assessments should be regularly updated with ongoing monitoring data, allowing identification of local-scale, time-varying threats. Yet, due to resource requirements, this approach is rare.

This work presents on a collaboration between a state government and a regional authority to establish cost-effective methods for dynamic reporting on coastal risk, covering 16 sites along the Great Ocean Road, Victoria, Australia, incorporating ongoing monitoring data (>300 drone surveys and 35 years of satellite-derived shorelines). A transect-based coastal database, maintained at the state level, provides a framework for modular analyses that scale in complexity according to site priority. Tools built into the framework include: (1) coastal erosion warning indicators; (2) potential land and asset impact; and (3) numerical modelling of coastal risk levels and beach management scenarios.

Dynamic assessments were designed to support operational management, providing updates on short and long-term shoreline change. As part of the final pilot program assessment, 3 sites (of 16) had high long-term erosion trends, 4 experienced moderate short-term erosion (last 2 years), and a high risk of erosion to assets was predicted for 2 sites. Detailed risk modelling for a high-priority site (Marengo) was used to inform where further intervention was required, and to assess medium-term (10 year) beach nourishment scenarios.

Use of a modular, scalable framework capable of incorporating ongoing monitoring data can provide effective decision support for time-sensitive management options. We suggest wide-reaching management benefits could be achieved by provision of large-scale coastal databases by national and provincial authorities, allowing resource-limited coastal managers to benefit through cost-efficient local-scale application of hazard and risk assessment tools.

关于海岸侵蚀风险的信息对于有效的海岸管理是必不可少的。理想情况下，风险评估应定期更新持续监测数据，以便识别局部规模的、时变的威胁。然而，由于资源需求，这种方法很少见。这项工作展示了州政府和地区当局之间的合作，以建立具有成本效益的沿海风险动态报告方法，涵盖澳大利亚维多利亚州大洋路沿线的16个地点，结合持续监测数据（>；300架无人机调查和35年的卫星衍生海岸线）。在州一级维护的基于样带的沿海数据库为模块化分析提供了一个框架，该框架根据场地优先级的复杂性进行缩放。框架内的工具包括：(1)海岸侵蚀预警指标；(2)潜在的土地和资产影响；(3)海岸风险水平和海滩管理情景的数值模拟。动态评估旨在支持业务管理，提供短期和长期海岸线变化的最新信息。作为最终试点项目评估的一部分，16个站点中有3个站点具有较高的长期侵蚀趋势，4个站点经历中度短期侵蚀（过去2年），并且预测2个站点的资产侵蚀风险很高。对高优先级地点（Marengo）进行了详细的风险建模，以告知需要进一步干预的地方，并评估中期（10年）海滩营养情况。使用能够整合持续监测数据的模块化可扩展框架可以为时间敏感的管理选项提供有效的决策支持。我们建议，通过国家和省级当局提供大规模沿海数据库，可以实现广泛的管理效益，使资源有限的沿海管理者能够通过成本效益高的地方规模应用危害和风险评估工具而受益。

Growing global concern about the impacts of non-selective fisheries on marine mammals has resulted in an increase in international agreements and national regulations that pressure national governments, such as Chile, to develop scientifically based, cost-effective methods for assessment, monitoring, and reduction of bycatch. This study presents an expert elicitation approach to characterize bycatch mortality of marine mammals in small-scale fisheries in Chile, with particular focus on the Chilean dolphin (Cephalorhynchus eutropia). Given its restricted distribution and vulnerability to multiple anthropogenic threats, the Chilean dolphin represents a key candidate for piloting a comprehensive and scalable bycatch monitoring program. The methodology establishes baseline data on bycatch mortality by integrating an expert elicitation approach using the IDEA method to improve accuracy and reduce uncertainty, alongside regional stakeholder workshops and interview surveys with small-scale fishers. Results indicate that bycatch mortality occurs throughout the species' range with an average estimated value of 17 dolphins killed each year. Inshore gillnets were identified as the primary gear responsible for bycatch mortality. Fishers' perceptions of Chilean dolphin conservation were generally positive, suggesting openness to mitigation measures. Regular implementation of this cost-effective structured elicitation approach can support adaptive management and contribute to more effective fisheries regulations. It also represents a scalable approach that fisheries agencies can use as a starting point for improving bycatch monitoring efforts in other locations where small-scale fisheries are causing marine mammal bycatch.

全球越来越关注非选择性渔业对海洋哺乳动物的影响，导致国际协议和国家法规的增加，这些协议和法规迫使智利等国家政府开发基于科学的、具有成本效益的方法来评估、监测和减少副渔获物。本研究提出了一种专家启发方法来表征智利小规模渔业中海洋哺乳动物的副渔获死亡率，特别关注智利海豚（Cephalorhynchus eutropia）。鉴于智利海豚的分布有限，易受多种人为威胁，智利海豚是试点一个全面和可扩展的副渔获物监测计划的关键候选者。该方法通过整合专家启发方法（采用IDEA方法提高准确性并减少不确定性），以及区域利益攸关方研讨会和对小规模渔民的访谈调查，建立了副渔获物死亡率的基线数据。结果表明，副渔获物死亡率发生在整个物种范围内，平均估计每年有17只海豚被杀。近海刺网被确定为副渔获物死亡率的主要渔具。渔民对智利海豚保护的看法总体上是积极的，表明他们愿意采取缓解措施。定期实施这种具有成本效益的结构化捕捞方法可以支持适应性管理，并有助于制定更有效的渔业条例。它还代表了一种可扩展的方法，渔业机构可以将其作为起点，在其他小规模渔业造成海洋哺乳动物副渔获物的地方改进副渔获物监测工作。

Connecting Marine Spatial Planning (MSP), which adopts a broader management approach, with Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), which focus on environmental conservation, is essential to ensure coherence between these instruments operating within the same marine space. To achieve this, a set of criteria encompassing socioeconomic and governance dimensions was analyzed. However, there is often a lack of comprehensive knowledge regarding these aspects, which could support the design, implementation and monitoring of MSP and MPAs. Addressing this gap, this research aims to develop and provide criteria to support managers/policy makers in integrating MSP and MPA processes within marine planning frameworks. The methodology is structured around three steps: (1) screening and grouping of key socio-economic and governance criteria derived from relevant policy documents; (2) expert evaluation of their relevance to MSP and MPAs; and (3) correlation analysis to explore the relationships between criteria prioritization across different types of spatial management, and to identify trends, therefore potential synergies/opportunities.

The results show a different correlation between MSP and different types of MPAs, suggesting that tailored approaches may be required to address the conservation targets within the scope of MSP. More specifically, there is a moderate negative correlation, in terms of socioeconomic criteria, between MSP and strict MPA, that is not observed between MSP and multiple-use MPAs. Although implemented on different scales, marine planning tools can work together to achieve their objectives if tailored to the specific socioeconomic dimension of the territory, with governance aspects such as adaptive management and stakeholder engagement serving as key elements in both processes. By framing ecosystems as social-ecological systems, the study demonstrates that socio-economic criteria can act as a bridge between sustainable development and conservation, therefore supporting the development of the Ocean European Pact and the revision of the MSP Directive.

将采用更广泛管理方法的海洋空间规划（MSP）与注重环境保护的海洋保护区（MPAs）联系起来，对于确保在同一海洋空间内运行的这些工具之间的一致性至关重要。为了实现这一目标，我们分析了一组包含社会经济和治理维度的标准。然而，通常缺乏关于这些方面的全面知识，这些知识可以支持MSP和mpa的设计、实施和监测。为了解决这一差距，本研究旨在制定和提供标准，以支持管理人员/决策者在海洋规划框架内整合MSP和MPA过程。该方法的结构围绕三个步骤：(1)筛选和分组来自相关政策文件的关键社会经济和治理标准；(2)专家评估其与MSP和MPAs的相关性；(3)通过相关分析，探索不同类型空间管理的优先级之间的关系，并确定趋势，从而确定潜在的协同效应/机会。结果表明，MSP与不同类型的海洋保护区之间存在不同的相关性，这表明在MSP范围内，可能需要有针对性的方法来解决保护目标。更具体地说，就社会经济标准而言，MSP和严格的MPA之间存在适度的负相关，而MSP和多用途MPA之间没有观察到这种负相关。虽然在不同的尺度上实施，但如果根据该地区的特定社会经济层面进行定制，海洋规划工具可以协同工作，以实现其目标，而适应性管理和利益相关者参与等治理方面是这两个过程中的关键要素。通过将生态系统定义为社会生态系统，该研究表明，社会经济标准可以作为可持续发展和保护之间的桥梁，从而支持《欧洲海洋公约》的制定和MSP指令的修订。

Offshore wind farms (OWFs) provide hard substrates that support fouling communities, enhancing local biodiversity and contributing to carbon cycling. This study assesses the effects of water depth and artificial reef deployment on the structure, biomass, and carbon stock of fouling communities attached to turbine foundations in an integrated OWF and marine ranching zone in Laizhou Bay, China. The investigation includes four water layers (surface, upper, middle, and bottom) and three site types: turbine foundation, trapezoidal reef, and arch-column reef areas. The results showed significant differences in biomass, community structure, and carbon stock across different depths and site types (p < 0.05). Biomass and species richness were higher at middle and bottom depths; turbine foundation area had higher biomass than both reef deployment areas. Among the 31 identified species, Magallana gigas and Amphibalanus reticulatus emerged as key contributors to overall biomass and carbon stock across the study sites. In addition, we observed interactive effects of water depth and site type on fouling communities. Our findings highlight the significant effect of the depth gradients and artificial reef deployment on the fouling community structure and carbon sequestration potential. The integration of artificial reefs with OWFs, as a form of multi-use of marine space, may help mitigate the risk of structural corrosion caused by biological fouling to some extent.

海上风电场（owf）提供坚硬的基质，支持污染社区，增强当地生物多样性，促进碳循环。本研究评估了莱州湾水域水深和人工鱼礁布置对水轮机基础结垢群落结构、生物量和碳储量的影响。调查包括四个水层（表层、上层、中层和底层）和三种场地类型：涡轮基础、梯形礁区和拱柱礁区。结果表明，不同深度和立地类型的生物量、群落结构和碳储量存在显著差异（p < 0.05）。中、底层生物量和物种丰富度较高；涡轮机基础区域的生物量高于两个珊瑚礁部署区域。在31个确定的物种中，大麦哲伦（Magallana gigas）和网角两栖（Amphibalanus reticulatus）是研究地点总生物量和碳储量的主要贡献者。此外，我们还观察到水深和场地类型对污染群落的交互影响。我们的研究结果强调了深度梯度和人工鱼礁部署对污染群落结构和碳固存潜力的显著影响。人工鱼礁与自航渔场相结合，作为一种多用途的海洋空间形式，可在一定程度上减轻生物污染造成的结构腐蚀风险。

Understanding the drivers of domestic water consumption under climate change is critical for addressing the global water crisis. This study aims to quantify the relative contributions of climatic (temperature, precipitation, water resources) and socioeconomic (GDP per capita, population density, built-up area) factors in driving the spatiotemporal variations of per capita domestic water use (DWUpc) across coastal China during 2011–2022. Compared to previous studies, we examined the climate–human interaction at the prefecture level with the aid of XGBoost–SHAP framework. We found that DWUpc varies substantially (57–306 L/d), generally higher in southern regions but increasing faster in the northern over the past decade. Temperature is the dominant driver (57 % of total variability) over the study area. However, DWUpc exhibits strong latitudinal variation in sensitivity to temperature. Higher socioeconomic development combined with abundant water supply can amplify this sensitivity. The highest-sensitivity zones were identified within 11.5–21.6 °C, where a 1 °C rise could increase domestic water use by 5–13 %. These findings underscore the importance of incorporating latitudinal heterogeneities into future domestic water use projections and region-specific management under the situation of global warming.

了解气候变化下家庭用水的驱动因素对于解决全球水危机至关重要。本研究旨在量化气候（温度、降水、水资源）和社会经济（人均GDP、人口密度、建成区面积）因素对2011-2022年中国沿海地区人均生活用水量时空变化的相对贡献。与以往的研究相比，我们借助XGBoost-SHAP框架在地级市层面考察了气候与人类的相互作用。我们发现，在过去十年中，DWUpc变化很大（57-306 L/d），南部地区普遍较高，而北部地区增长较快。温度是研究区域的主要驱动因素（占总变率的57%）。然而，DWUpc对温度的敏感性表现出强烈的纬度变化。较高的社会经济发展水平加上丰富的水资源供应会放大这种敏感性。在11.5-21.6°C范围内确定了最敏感区域，其中每升高1°C可使生活用水增加5 - 13%。这些发现强调了在全球变暖的情况下，将纬度异质性纳入未来生活用水预测和区域具体管理的重要性。

The meagre (Argyrosomus regius) is a large teleost inhabiting the coastal waters of the East Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. Along the Iberian Peninsula, it is frequently targeted by both commercial and recreational fisheries. Despite its relevance, information on its population structure and movement ecology has been scarce until recently. While these studies have provided a foundation, information on the main migratory corridors along the coast is still missing. The current study aimed to identify primary migratory routes, aggregations, and residency sites along the Southwest coast of Portugal. Forty-nine adult meagres were captured and tagged with acoustic transmitters between 2018 and 2023. Their movement was monitored from 122 acoustic receivers, grouped into 25 arrays, which were deployed throughout the Gulf of Cádiz and along the Southwest coast of Portugal. A spatial network approach was applied to analyse these data. The locations near the tagging site and along the Southwest coast displayed high values of eigenvector and betweenness centralities, indicating their crucial role in facilitating the connectivity of adult meagre between the two regions. Furthermore, co-occurrences outside the spawning season highlight their role as potential feeding grounds. The number of detections and co-occurrences near the Guadiana Estuary provides further evidence that the location may serve as a spawning ground, although additional data are needed to confirm this. Our findings expand previous research, identifying key passages and aggregation sites for meagre along the coast.

大硬骨鱼是一种大型硬骨鱼，生活在东大西洋和地中海的沿海水域。沿着伊比利亚半岛，它经常成为商业和休闲渔业的目标。尽管它具有相关性，但直到最近，关于其种群结构和运动生态学的信息一直很少。虽然这些研究提供了一个基础，但关于沿海主要迁徙走廊的信息仍然缺失。目前的研究旨在确定葡萄牙西南海岸的主要迁徙路线、聚集地和居住地。在2018年至2023年期间，捕获了49只成年鳕鱼，并用声波发射器进行了标记。它们的活动通过122个声学接收器进行监测，这些接收器被分成25个阵列，部署在Cádiz湾和葡萄牙西南海岸。采用空间网络方法分析这些数据。标记点附近和西南沿海的特征向量和中间度中心值较高，表明它们在促进两地区间成虫种群的连通性中起着至关重要的作用。此外，在产卵季节之外的共同出现突出了它们作为潜在觅食地的作用。瓜迪亚纳河口附近的探测和共同出现的数量进一步证明了该地点可能是产卵地，尽管需要额外的数据来证实这一点。我们的发现扩展了之前的研究，确定了沿海地区的主要通道和聚集地点。这些结果可以为管理和保护工作提供信息，特别是在海洋空间规划方面。

Spatially explicit assessment of sustainable development of the economy-society-environment system can provide detailed insights into micro-level differences in resource distribution, environmental issues, and development levels within an area, thereby facilitating targeted intervention. However, existing evaluations of sustainable development primarily target national and subnational scales, which frequently struggle to account for local and regional differences—particularly in areas where policy interventions are most urgently required. To address this gap, we take 48 coastal prefecture-level cities in China as our research subject, and investigate the spatiotemporal variations in SDG performance through a spatially explicit evaluation method that considers evenness among all goals. The results showed overall improvement in the level of sustainable development in China's coastal cities from 2000 to 2020. Among them, Zhuhai, Jiaxing, Ningbo, Guangzhou, Zhongshan, and Qingdao maintained relatively sustainable development levels in this time. However, the magnitude of the trade-offs between SDG 9 and SDG 7 and SDG 13 increased, which highlights the urgency for Chinese coastal cities to accelerate technological innovation and transform their industrial models. Coastal cities with developed economies have greater potential to achieve SDGs, but also face bottlenecks due to unevenness among the goals. In particular, there are significant deficiencies in goals related to climate action. Nevertheless, coastal cities with relatively weak economies – mainly those located in the Guangxi and Liaoning provinces – performed well on SDGs related to the environment. Our spatially explicit assessment of sustainable development levels in major Chinese coastal cities enables targeted policy interventions by identifying regional disparities, thereby optimizing resource allocation and prioritizing actions in underperforming areas.

对经济-社会-环境系统的可持续发展进行空间显式评价，可以详细了解区域内资源分布、环境问题和发展水平的微观差异，从而促进有针对性的干预。然而，现有的可持续发展评价主要针对国家和国家以下范围，这往往难以解释地方和区域差异，特别是在最迫切需要政策干预的领域。为了解决这一差距，我们以中国48个沿海地级市为研究对象，通过考虑各目标均匀性的空间显式评价方法，研究可持续发展目标绩效的时空变化。结果表明，2000年至2020年，中国沿海城市的可持续发展水平总体上有所提高。其中，珠海、嘉兴、宁波、广州、中山、青岛在这段时间内保持了相对可持续的发展水平。然而，可持续发展目标9、可持续发展目标7和可持续发展目标13之间的权衡程度有所增加，这凸显了中国沿海城市加快技术创新和转变产业模式的紧迫性。发达经济体的沿海城市实现可持续发展目标的潜力更大，但由于目标之间的不均衡，也面临瓶颈。特别是，与气候行动有关的目标存在重大不足。然而，经济相对薄弱的沿海城市（主要是广西和辽宁）在环境相关的可持续发展目标方面表现良好。我们对中国主要沿海城市可持续发展水平的空间明确评估，通过识别区域差异，从而优化资源配置，优先考虑表现不佳地区的行动，从而实现有针对性的政策干预。

Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), despite their protected status, face growing threats from climate change and anthropogenic pressures, necessitating biodiversity assessment to evaluate their conservation effectiveness. This study employed macrobenthos to investigate beta (β) diversity, partitioned into Local Contributions to Beta Diversity (LCBD) and Species Contributions to Beta Diversity (SCBD), to identify ecologically critical sites and species within the moderately impacted Gulf of Kachchh (GoK) and the less impacted Gulf of Mannar (GoM) MPAs. This approach provided a more nuanced analysis than the classical Whittaker's β-diversity index (β_W). The GoM, characterized by stable environmental conditions, harboured more k-selected species than GoK, reflecting its high conservation value. Conversely, GoK showed higher LCBD and SCBD metrics than the GoM, reflecting ecological perturbations and the need for targeted restoration. β-regression models revealed that LCBD was mainly driven by community metrics, particularly turnover with some influence from nestedness, in both MPAs. Environmental parameters such as suspended solids, sand, and total organic carbon in GoK, and sand and silt in GoM were strongly associated with LCBD. SCBD was primarily shaped by species occupancy and abundance, with occupancy emerging as the key driver in both MPAs. These findings highlight the value of expanding advanced β-diversity metrics globally to strengthen marine conservation and ecosystem management.

海洋保护区虽然具有一定的保护地位，但却面临着日益严重的气候变化和人为压力的威胁，需要通过生物多样性评估来评估其保护效果。本研究利用大型底栖动物研究β (β)多样性，将β多样性的本地贡献（LCBD）和物种贡献（SCBD）划分为中等影响的Kachchh湾（GoK）和较小影响的Mannar湾（GoM）海洋保护区的生态关键地点和物种。这种方法提供了比经典惠特克β-多样性指数（βW）更细致入微的分析。GoM环境条件稳定，有较多的k-选择物种，具有较高的保护价值。相反，GoK的LCBD和SCBD指标高于GoM，反映了生态扰动和有针对性的恢复需求。β-回归模型显示，两个海洋保护区的LCBD主要受群落指标驱动，尤其是受巢性影响的周转率。GoK的悬浮物、砂和总有机碳以及GoM的砂和粉土等环境参数与LCBD密切相关。SCBD主要受物种占用度和丰度的影响，其中占用度是两个海洋保护区的关键驱动因素。这些发现突出了在全球范围内扩大先进β-多样性指标对加强海洋保护和生态系统管理的价值。

Citizen and community science programs have been instrumental to generating large datasets in natural sciences, while simultaneously engaging participants in science and the environment. Community led and citizen science projects have seen broad application to plastic pollution monitoring and cleanup efforts due to the abundance of plastic pollution in all environments around the globe. Here we highlight the work of a niche group of community scientists, we call, highly engaged marine users. This group of community scientists demonstrate a high level of connection to, and understanding of the ocean and are equipped with a set of specific skills and knowledge that are required for their work. We present case studies regarding plastic pollution monitoring by highly engaged marine users working in three understudied marine environments (1) surfers, paddleboarders, and kayakers in the nearshore environment, (2) recreational divers at the seafloor, and (3) recreational and professional seafarers in the open ocean. We reflect on the success of these programs highlighting the role of scientists in providing support in the study design, and execution of project efforts. We demonstrate that highly engaged marine users are key to executing plastic pollution monitoring in understudied marine environments across the globe and that engaging this group will be pivotal in meeting global needs of monitoring marine debris across the global ocean.

公民和社区科学项目有助于生成自然科学领域的大型数据集，同时也吸引了科学和环境领域的参与者。由于全球所有环境中都存在大量的塑料污染，社区领导和公民科学项目已经广泛应用于塑料污染监测和清理工作。在这里，我们重点介绍一群社区科学家的工作，我们称之为高度参与的海洋用户。这组社区科学家展示了与海洋的高度联系和对海洋的了解，并具备了他们工作所需的一套特定技能和知识。我们介绍了在三个未被充分研究的海洋环境中工作的高度参与的海洋用户关于塑料污染监测的案例研究(1)近岸环境中的冲浪者、桨板运动员和皮划艇运动员，(2)海底的休闲潜水员，(3)公海上的休闲和专业海员。我们反思这些项目的成功，突出了科学家在研究设计和项目实施中提供支持的作用。我们证明，高度参与的海洋用户是在全球未充分研究的海洋环境中执行塑料污染监测的关键，参与这一群体对于满足监测全球海洋海洋垃圾的全球需求至关重要。

The conservation of highly migratory marine predators remains an urgent global challenge, with conventional static marine protected area (MPA) proving insufficient to protect migratory species. The study implements a novel integration of ensemble species distribution models (eSDMs) and environmental niche analysis to systematically assess conservation gaps for pelagic fishes across their annual cycles. The global-scale analysis reveals critical spatial-temporal mismatches between current MPA networks and essential habitats, with only 10 % (±4 % SD) of species habitats receiving formal protection. Core habitats face intensifying anthropogenic pressure with high fishing effort spatially overlapping, but only 9 % high-utilization areas covered by MPAs. Niche-environment discrepancy assessments further expose fundamental protection deficits, showing that MPAs currently encompass merely 17 %–61 % of niches required for different life history stages. The conservation gap is most pronounced in autumn. These dual geographic and environmental shortfalls highlight the necessity for dynamic marine management strategies that adaptively track species-environment interactions across oceanographic domains. This study proposes an operational framework that integrates habitat modeling with spatial, temporal, and ecological dimensions, combined with gap analysis, to provide a blueprint for reconciling static conservation boundaries with the dynamic characteristics of pelagic ecosystems. This approach enables strategic prioritization of mobile protection measures and climate-resilient MPA networks that mirror the ecology of migratory species.

高度洄游海洋捕食者的保护仍然是一项紧迫的全球挑战，传统的静态海洋保护区（MPA）不足以保护迁徙物种。该研究将群落物种分布模型（esdm）和环境生态位分析相结合，系统地评估了远洋鱼类在年循环中的保护缺口。全球尺度的分析显示，目前的MPA网络与基本栖息地之间存在严重的时空不匹配，只有10%（±4% SD）的物种栖息地得到正式保护。核心生境的人为压力不断加剧，渔获努力度高，空间重叠，但高利用面积仅占海洋保护区面积的9%。生态位环境差异评估进一步揭示了基本的保护缺陷，表明海洋保护区目前仅涵盖了不同生活史阶段所需生态位的17% - 61%。保护缺口在秋季最为明显。这些地理和环境的双重不足突出了动态海洋管理战略的必要性，这种战略可以自适应地跟踪海洋领域内物种与环境的相互作用。本研究提出了一个将生境建模与空间、时间和生态维度相结合的操作框架，并结合间隙分析，为调和静态保护边界与远洋生态系统动态特征提供了蓝图。这种方法使移动保护措施和反映迁徙物种生态的气候适应型海洋保护区网络的战略优先级得以确定。
