| Title in original language | The Mediterranean Sea under siege: spatial overlap between marine biodiversity, cumulative threats and marine reserves |
| Original language | English |
| Abstract | A large body of knowledge exists on individual anthropogenic threats that have an impact on marine biodiversity in the Mediterranean Sea, although we know little about how these threats accumulate and interact to affect marine species and ecosystems. In this context, we aimed to identify the main areas where the interaction between marine biodiversity and threats is more pronounced and to assess their spatial overlap with current marine protected areas in the Mediterranean. |
