NESP MaC Project 2.3 - Improving knowledge transfer to support Australian Marine Park decision making and management effectiveness evaluation

This record provides an overview of the NESP Marine and Coastal Hub project "Improving knowledge transfer to support Australian Marine Park decision making and management effectiveness evaluation". For specific data outputs from this project, please see child records associated with this metadata.

--------------------


In the last decade Australia’s researchers have made significant progress to provide managers with data and data products to inform the planning and establishment of Australian Marine Parks (AMPs). However, further work is required to adequately meet the data product requirements for assessing AMP management effectiveness. This project addresses this problem by: 1) Identifying priority data and data products to support characterisation of marine systems and reporting on AMP monitoring priorities; 2) Assessing availability and delivery mechanisms of high priority data and data products and whether they are fit for purpose; and 3) Estimating condition of park values (excluding cultural values) and assessing management effectiveness with available data/knowledge. This project advances the Hub’s Protected Place Management Initiative and contributes to the national need for improving access to data and expanding the Australian Ocean Data Network.


Outputs

• Documented data and data product priorities organised in one or more data product hierarchies including monitoring priorities and their indicators where appropriate [written]

• A fit for purpose assessment of priority data products [written]

• Methods for estimating current condition status of AMP values [written]

• Recommendations for how to progress priority data sets that do not currently meet the established criteria but are required for characterising, protecting, and assessing current condition status of AMP values [written]

• Final project report [written]

• Ad-hoc data products generated through this project's data fitness-for-purpose exercise - see linked 'child' records
