Shapefiles showing the locations of long-term climate change refugia and hotspots identified in the FairSeas report "A Climate Resilient Path for Ireland's Marine Protected Areas Network"

<p>Shapefiles created for the report "A Climate Resilient&nbsp;Path for Ireland&rsquo;s&nbsp;Marine Protected&nbsp;Areas Network", an addendum chapter to "Revitalising Our Seas report: Identifying<br>Areas of Interest for Marine Protected Area Designation in Irish&nbsp;Waters"</p> <p>These shapefiles summarise long-term patterns that emerge from the spatial-meta analysis of physical-biogeochemical and species distribution modelling data, providing an overview of the distribution of climate change refugia and climate change hotspots across Ireland's National Marine Planning Framework between 2026 - 2069, and across the two emissions scenarios considered in the report (RCP4.5 and RCP8.5).&nbsp;</p> <p>Filenames refer to the specific analysis each set of shapefiles belong to: Benthic habitats, benthic megafauna, pelagic habitats, pelagic megafauna and forage fish. Details of the modelling datasets used in each of these analyses, the meta-analysis method and shapefile creation can be found in Annex A1 in the report "A Climate Resilient Path for Ireland&rsquo;s Marine Protected Areas Network".</p>

Data from: Benefits and challenges of scaling up expansion of marine protected area networks in the Verde Island Passage, Central Philippines

Locally-established marine protected areas (MPAs) have been proven to achieve local-scale fisheries and conservation objectives. However, since many of these MPAs were not designed to form ecologically-connected networks, their contributions to broader-scale goals such as complementarity and connectivity can be limited. In contrast, integrated networks of MPAs designed with systematic conservation planning are assumed to be more effective—ecologically, socially, and economically—than collections of locally-established MPAs. There is, however, little empirical evidence that clearly demonstrates the supposed advantages of systematic MPA networks. A key reason is the poor record of implementation of systematic plans attributable to lack of local buy-in. An intermediate scenario for the expansion of MPAs is scaling up of local decisions, whereby locally-driven MPA initiatives are coordinated through collaborative partnerships among local governments and their communities. Coordination has the potential to extend the benefits of individual MPAs and perhaps to approach the potential benefits offered by systematic MPA networks. We evaluated the benefits of scaling up local MPAs to form networks by simulating seven expansion scenarios for MPAs in the Verde Island Passage, central Philippines. The scenarios were: uncoordinated community-based establishment of MPAs; two scenarios reflecting different levels of coordinated MPA expansion through collaborative partnerships; and four scenarios guided by systematic conservation planning with different contexts for governance. For each scenario, we measured benefits through time in terms of achievement of objectives for representation of marine habitats. We found that: in any governance context, systematic networks were more efficient than non-systematic ones; systematic networks were more efficient in broader governance contexts; and, contrary to expectations but with caveats, the uncoordinated scenario was slightly more efficient than the coordinated scenarios. Overall, however, coordinated MPA networks have the potential to be more efficient than the uncoordinated ones, especially when coordinated planning uses systematic methods.
