WHAT’S A DISTRIBUTED
SEMINAR?
A seminar that is taught simultaneously
at more than one University.
What’s the big deal – efficiency,
effectiveness, fun, exchange
How does it work – we make it work
What do we get – let’s find out
No I haven’t done this before but I am
willing to try.
Grand Synthesis Questions
•
•
•
•
•
Can successful ecosystem-based management approaches
be implemented in the marine environment without NMS as
part of the approach?
How can NMS meet local management objectives and
simultaneously contribute to broader regional objectives for
ecosystem-based management?
Are existing legal and jurisdictional authorities sufficient to
integrate NMS into ecosystem-based management efforts at
local and regional scales?
Can National Marine Sanctuaries effectively implement
ecosystem-based management approaches within their
boundaries and contribute to broader ecosystem-based
management efforts in the regions in which they occur?
To what extent can insights derived from an evaluation of
National Marine Sanctuaries and ecosystem-based
management be extrapolated to the broader global
discussion of MPAs?
Course requirements

Course requirements
Attend Class
Read Assignments
Be ready to discuss
Show and tell – Each student has unique
experience, contacts, networks. Bring your
talents to class and share them.
Course requirements
On a weekly basis stay abreast of the
developments from other distributed
seminars, via the webtools –
Workspace [we may need to break this
into individual assignments].
Take responsibility for one of the weekly
reports from our seminar to the
Distributed seminar website.[sign up].
Course requirements
Individual or Group Projects Contributing
to Course Case Study –
We will design this case study in class
so that it is built around the questions
above but matched with student
interests.
Case Study Continued
• Conceptually, the case study should
consider:
• 1. Ecosystem processes and impacts largely
within ONMS boundaries.
• 2. Ecosystem processes and impacts largely
external to ONMS boundaries.
• 3. Human activities inside and outside
ONMS boundaries.
• 4. Spatial Database [This component is
common across all distributed seminars]
Spatial Data Base
Spatial Database – GIS including:
•
Species and Habitat Data
–
–
–
•
Organism distribution data: What is known and available with
respect to the distribution of fishes, invertebrates, marine
mammals, seabirds, reptiles within the Sanctuary or
surrounding environs?
Interpreted seafloor maps: What is known and available with
respect to the distribution of major seafloor habitat types in the
Sanctuary?
Multibeam/sidescan sonar coverages
Management Boundaries
–
–
•
Marine Managed Area Database
Other relevant non-spatial regulations
Human Dimensions
–
–
Human uses (traditional, local, incl. fishing)
Land-based or other anthropogenic influences
Class field trip? -- Optional
Class Field Trip – REQUIRED

EPAP ECOSYSTEM
“PRINCIPLES”
• ABILITY TO PREDICT ECOSYSTEM
BEHAVIOR IS LIMITED
• ECOSYSTEMS HAVE THRESHOLDS
AFFECTING ECOSYSTEM STRUCTURE
• IF LIMITS ARE EXCEEDED, CHANGES
CAN BE IRREVERSIBLE
• DIVERSITY IS IMPORTANT TO
ECOSYSTEM FUNCTIONING
EPAP ECOSYSTEM
“PRINCIPLES” cont.
• Multiple scales interact within and
among ecosystems
• Components of ecosystems are linked
• Ecosystem boundaries are open
• Ecosystems change with time

NONE OF THE ABOVE?
ECOSYSTEM-BASED

RECOGNIZES UNCERTAINTY

provide lasting protection for part or all of
the natural and cultural resources therein.

IUCN/WCU (K&K 1992)
DEFINITION MPA
ANY AREA OF INTERTIDAL OR SUBTIDAL TERRAIN, TOGETHER
WITH ITS OVERLYING WATER AND ASSOCIATED FLORA, FAUNA,
HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL FEATURES, WHICH HAS BEEN
RESESRVED BY LAW OR OTHER EFFECTIVE MEANS TO PROTECT
PART OR ALL OF THE ENCLOSED ENVIRONMENT [KELLLEHER AND
KENCHINGTON 1992].
PRIMARY GOAL
TO PROVIDE FOR THE PROTECTION, RESTORATION, WISE USE,
UNDERSTANDING AND ENJOYMENT OF THE MARINE HERITAGE OF
THE WORLD IN PERPETUITY THROUGH THE CREATION OF A
GLOBAL, REPRESENTATIVE SYSTEM OF MARINE PROTECTED
AREAS AND THROUGH THE MANAGEMENT IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE PRINCIPLES OF THE WORLD CONSERVATION STRATEGY OF
HUMAN ACTIVITIES THAT USE OR AFFECT THE MARINE
ENVIRONMENT [K&K 1992]
MPA DEFINITIONS
• AGARDY
• MARINE MANAGEMENT AREA --- ANY AREA OF THE
COASTAL ZONE OR OPEN OCEAN CONFERRED
SOME LEVEL OF PROTECTION FOR THE PURPOSE
OF MANAGING USE OF RESOURCES AND OCEAN
SPACE OR PROTECTING VULNERABLE OR
THREATENED HABITATS AND SPECIES. (Agardy
1997).
• MARINE PROTECTED AREAS ARE A SUBSET --ANY COASTAL OR MARINE AREA THAT IS
MANAGED FOR CONSERVATION PURPOSES.
DEFINITION
• National Research Council 2002
Geographic area with discrete
boundaries that has been designated to
enhance the conservation of marine
resources. This includes MPA-wide
restrictions on some activities such as
oil and gas mining and the use of zones
such as fishery and ecological reserves
to provide higher levels of protection

CLASSIFICATION
This classification system is designed to be:
• simple, consistent and intuitive,
• an accurate reflection of MPA goals and
approaches,
• a tool to allow an objective assessment of
the impacts of proposed MPAs on
ecosystems and users,
• one that doesn’t overlap with programmatic
names, and
• one that has minimal connotations.
