The proposed boundaries of the Weddell Sea MPA (WSMPA) include the significant area of 1.3 million km². It is shown that the WSMPA boundaries should be revised in compliance with sea-ice conditions for vessel navigation being a fundamental factor for the successful completion of assigned research tasks in designated areas.
