NESP MB Project A5 - Defining connectivity of Australia’s hammerhead sharks

本记录概述了国家环境保护计划海洋生物多样性中心项目A5--“确定澳大利亚锤头鲨的连通性”的范围和研究成果。有关此项目的特定数据输出，请参阅与此元数据关联的子记录。<br/> <br/> <br/> 根据《濒危野生动植物种国际贸易公约》(CITES)和《保护迁徙物种公约》(CMS)的最新列入名单，锤头鲨成为保护管理的重点。环境和能源部(DOEE)和大堡礁海洋公园管理局(GBRMPA)的明显数据差距是国家和国际司法管辖区的人口连接。该项目应用遗传和卫星遥测技术来检查锤头鲨的运动和连通性。这将有助于确定澳大利亚海岸公园(AMP)和大堡礁海洋公园(GBRMP)的使用，并在可能的情况下定义生物重要区域(BIAS)。这些数据将与目前的研究同化，以提供对锤头鲨种群状况的更全面的了解，为物种名录提供信息，并协助国家和国际层面的管理和保护政策。<br/> <br/> 计划产量<br/> ·一份报告，概述澳大利亚、印度尼西亚和巴布亚新几内亚北部锤头鲨种群的遗传和运动分析结果，包括确定偏见(聚集点)和尽可能使用CMR；修订种群结构和物种状况评估的概念模型；总结锤头鲨的土著知识和传统用途。<br/> ·向主要利益攸关方和最终用户展示结果<br/> ·描述项目成果的政策简介(面向管理人员的研究摘要)<br/> ·科学期刊手稿，概述项目组成部分的成果(例如，遗传、移动、土著用途和知识转让)<br/> ·在科学会议上提出建议<br/> ·通过社交媒体将调查结果传达给更广泛的社区

This record provides an overview of the scope and research output of NESP Marine Biodiversity Hub Project A5 - "Defining connectivity of Australia’s hammerhead sharks". For specific data outputs from this project, please see child records associated with this metadata.<br /> <br /> --------------------<br /> <br /> Hammerhead sharks are the focus of conservation management through recent listing on Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) and Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species (CMS). The clear data gap for Department of the Environment and Energy (DoEE) and Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (GBRMPA) is connectivity of populations across national and international jurisdictions. This project applies genetic and satellite telemetry to examine the movement and connectivity of hammerhead sharks. This will help determine use of Australian Marine Parks (AMPs) and the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (GBRMP), and define Biologically Important Areas (BIAs) where possible. These data will be assimilated with current research to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the status of hammerhead shark populations to inform species listing and assist management and conservation policies at national and international levels.<br /> <br /> Planned Outputs<br /> • A report outlining the results of genetic and movement analysis of hammerhead shark populations in northern Australia, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea including identification of BIAs (aggregation sites) and use of CMRs where possible; revised conceptual models of stock structure and species status assessments; and a summary of Indigenous knowledge and traditional use of hammerhead sharks. <br /> • Presentation of results to key stakeholders and end users<br /> • Policy Brief (Research Summary for Managers) that describes project outcomes<br /> • Manuscripts for scientific journals outlining the results of project components (eg, genetics, movement, Indigenous use and knowledge transfer)<br /> • Presentation of recommendations at scientific conferences<br /> • Communication of findings to the broader community via social media
