The goal of this project is to develop an improved approach to assessment and planning of MPAs for conservation and management of sharks and rays.

​

​

There are three key areas the project focuses on:

​

1. Where will spatial protection for sharks and rays be the most successful?

2. What is the current state of knowledge on the efficacy of spatial protections for shark and ray populations?

3. What are the conservation and management goals of spatial protections for sharks and rays, and what are the socioeconomic indicators of success?
