Understanding marine migratory connectivity for more sustainable oceans

标志性海龟、海洋哺乳动物、海鸟和鱼类的海盆规模迁徙使它们面临多重压力和治理机制，导致管理缺口和种群下降。该项目旨在提供跨类群迁移连接的方法和证据基础，这对支持 保护这些物种。预期成果包括全面和综合的迁移连接模型，保护理论的发展，以及新的方法，使迁移连接纳入保护规划。优势包括：这是一个跨分类群基线，将使澳大利亚能够首次衡量海洋洄游连通性的环境变化。

Ocean basin-scale migrations of iconic sea turtles, marine mammals, seabirds, and fish expose them to multiple stressors and governance regimes, leading to gaps in management and population declines. The project aims to deliver the methods and evidence base of cross-taxa migratory connectivity that is essential to support the conservation of these species. Expected outcomes include comprehensive and integrated models of migratory connectivity, conservation theory development, and new methods that allow incorporation of migratory connectivity in conservation planning. Benefits include: a cross-taxa baseline that will enable Australia to measure environmental change in marine migratory connectivity for the first time.
