Protecting the Seagrass Biome: Report from the traditional seagrass knowledge working group

Year: 2002

Type: article

Abstract: Both natural and human-induced disturbance vectors reduce seagrass cover. However,global declines, now extending to 24 different species, are largely driven by human activ-ity (Short and Wyllie-Echeverria, 1996; Aioi and Omori, 2000; Hemminga and Duarte,2000). It is clear that the legal/judicial model, upon which conservation initiatives arebased, is not effectively arresting this trend.
