A new Western Mediterranean Sea Ebsas proposal based on quantitative information of key criteria
Marine ecosystems are increasingly threatened by multiple anthropogenic pressures, leading to biodiversity loss, habitats degradation and resources deterioration. To address these challenges, international and regional policy frameworks have established conservation targets. Ecologically or Biologically Significant Marine Areas (EBSAs), designated by the Convention on Biological Diversity based on multiple criteria, can guide spatial conservation…
Can a "doughnut" economic framework be useful to monitor the blue economy success? A fisheries example
In this paper, we employ a “doughnut” economic approach to comprehensively assess the state of the purse-seiners fisheries sector in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea. The analysis identifies several instances of ecological overshooting and shortages in basic social needs, indicating that the current situation is, in many respects, far from being in a secure, ecologically safe, and socially just space. It demonstrates that the necessary transiti…
Large‐scale human celebrations increase global light pollution
Culturally dependent human social behaviours involving artificial light usage can potentially affect light pollution patterns and thereby impact the night‐time ecology in populated areas, although to date this has not been examined globally. By analysing continuous (monthly), highly resolved, spatially explicit data on global night lights (Visible and Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite–Day/Night Band‐VIIRS‐DNB; 2014–2019) with circular statistical…
Fisheries-enhanced pressure on Mediterranean regions and pelagic species already impacted by climate change
Marine species are widely threatened by anthropogenic activities, including fishing and human-induced climate change. However, geographically broad and spatially explicit assessments of the simultaneous impacts of these major threats at regional scales are mostly lacking due to the practical challenges of surveying vast geographical areas and obtaining adequately resolved data. Yet, these assessments are key for identifying highly and cumulativel…
A new methodology to support smartness at the district level of metropolitan areas in emerging economies
Use of sexuality-focused entertainment media in sex education
The literature on the impact of entertainment media on sex education is typically pathology-focused, unclear regarding the effects of such usage, and void of dialogue between those who actually work in the areas of sexuality education and entertainment. To address this gap, this paper is the product of joint authorship between media figures from varied sexually-focused programming fields and academics who teach and conduct research in the areas o…
