Propagule Supply

Marine Protected Areas are considered key tools for conservation of coastal ecosystems. However, manyreserves are characterized by several problems mainly related to inadequate zonings that often do notprotect high biodiversity and propagule supply areas precluding, at the same time, economic importantzones for local interests. The Gulf of Naples is here employed as a study area to assess the effects ofinclusion of different conservation features and costs in reserve design process. In particular eight scenariosare developed using graph theory to identify propagule source patches and fishing and exploitationactivities as costs-in-use for local population. Scenarios elaborated by MARXAN, softwarecommonly used for marine conservation planning, are compared using multivariate analyses (MDS,PERMANOVA and PERMDISP) in order to assess input data having greatest effects on protected areasselection.MARXAN is heuristic software able to give a number of different correct results, all of them near to thebest solution. Its outputs show that the most important areas to be protected, in order to ensure longtermhabitat life and adequate propagule supply, are mainly located around the Gulf islands. In additionthrough statistical analyses it allowed us to prove that different choices on conservation featureslead to statistically different scenarios. The presence of propagule supply patches forces MARXAN toselect almost the same areas to protect decreasingly different MARXAN results and, thus, choices forreserves area selection.The multivariate analyses applied here to marine spatial planning proved to be very helpful allowing toidentify i) how different scenario input data affect MARXAN and ii) what features have to be taken intoaccount in study areas characterized by peculiar biological and economic interests.

New Infrastructure

We are currently in what might be termed a “third phase” of ocean enclosures around the world. This phase has involved an unprecedented intensity of map-making that supports an emerging regime of ocean governance where resources are geocoded, multiple and disparate marine uses are weighed against each other, spatial tradeoffs are made, and exclusive rights to spaces and resources are established. The discourse and practice of marine spatial planning inform the contours of this emerging regime. This paper examines the infrastructure of marine spatial planning via two ocean data portals recently created to support marine spatial planning on the East Coast of the United States. Applying theories of ontological politics, critical cartography, and a critical conceptualization of “care,” we examine portal performances in order to link their organization and imaging practices with the ideological and ontological work these infrastructures do, particularly in relation to environmental and human community actors. We further examine how ocean ontologies may be made durable through portal use and repetition, but also how such performances can “slip,” thereby creating openings for enacting marine spatial planning differently. Our analysis reveals how portal infrastructures assemble, edit, and visualize data, and how it matters to the success of particular performances of marine spatial planning.
