Conservation science is a mission-driven discipline, yet there are few assessments on whether conservation practices follow scientific recommendations, and thus missed opportunities for improvement. Brazil has among the greatest gaps in species protection by Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) globally and is thus a priority for future marine conservation efforts. In this paper, we assess the federal marine protected area (MPA) planning process in Brazil and compare it to a systematic conservation planning approach, focused on achieving conservation benefits while minimizing associated costs. We review the available information for all (70) federal MPAs, and the 26 associated management plans available. We found five simple opportunities for improving national MPA planning: (1) identifying specific and quantitative objectives and linking them to timeframes and budgets; (2) developing strategic monitoring and evaluation programs focused on MPA performance; (3) enabling local stakeholders to participate in planning processes, (4) explicitly considering MPA costs and leveraging existing sources of funding, and (5) decentralizing resource management and empowering local stakeholders to manage resources sustainably. Many reviewed MPA planning efforts fall short in providing clear management guidance and our recommendations can foster a stronger platform for the conservation and sustainable use of marine resources in Brazil.

缩小巴西海洋保护区科学与实践之间差距的机会

保护科学是一门任务驱动的学科,但是很少有关于保护实践是否遵循科学建议的评估,因此错过了改进的机会。巴西在全球海洋保护区(MPA)保护物种方面存在最大的差距,因此是未来海洋保护工作的重点。在本文中,我们评估了巴西的联邦海洋保护区(MPA)规划过程,并将其与系统化的保护规划方法进行了比较,该方法侧重于在最小化相关成本的同时实现保护收益。我们审查了所有(70个)联邦MPA的可用信息,以及26个可用的相关管理计划。我们发现了五个改善国家MPA计划的简单机会:(1)确定具体和定量的目标,并将其与时间表和预算联系起来;(2)制定针对MPA绩效的战略监测和评估计划;(3)使地方利益相关者能够参与计划过程,(4)明确考虑MPA成本并利用现有资金来源,以及(5)分散资源管理并赋予地方利益相关者以可持续方式管理资源的权力。许多经过审查的MPA规划工作未能提供明确的管理指导,我们的建议可以为巴西保护和可持续利用海洋资源建立一个更强大的平台。(4)明确考虑MPA成本并利用现有资金来源,(5)分散资源管理并授权当地利益相关者可持续地管理资源。许多经过审查的MPA规划工作未能提供明确的管理指导,我们的建议可以为巴西保护和可持续利用海洋资源建立一个更强大的平台。(4)明确考虑MPA成本并利用现有资金来源,(5)分散资源管理并授权地方利益相关者可持续地管理资源。许多经过审查的MPA规划工作未能提供明确的管理指导,我们的建议可以为巴西保护和可持续利用海洋资源建立一个更强大的平台。
