El Área de la Convención de la CRVMA está dividida en nueve dominios de planificación de AMP, división que se estableció durante el Taller de la CCRVMA sobre Áreas Marinas Protegidas de 2011 (SC-CAMLR-XXX, Anexo 6).
Зона действия Конвенции АНТКОМ подразделяется на девять областей планирования МОР. Они были определены в 2011 г. на Семинаре АНТКОМ по морским охраняемым районам (SC-CAMLR-XXX, Приложение 6).
The CAMLR Convention Area is divided into nine MPA planning domains. These were defined during the 2011 CCAMLR workshop on marine protected areas (SC-CAMLR-XXX, Annex 6).
Le paragraphe 3.81 du rapport de l'atelier 2018 de la CCAMLR sur la gestion spatiale recommande au Comité scientifique d'envisager la création d'un groupe d'experts pour poursuivre l'établissement d'AMP dans les domaines de planification 5 et 6, en utilisant le modèle établi pour l'AMPD1. Il précise que toutes les personnes concernées par les travaux proposés ne sont pas forcément engagées dans la communauté CCAMLR et demande la mise en place de mécanismes permettant à des experts externes de participer au groupe d'experts.
Le présent document fixe le mandat de ce groupe d'experts.
3. Implementation and complianceIn discussion with the Chairs, this provisional timetable has been produced to allow both SCIC and SCAF to hold their meetings in the Wombat Room. Interpretation is available in the Wombat Room, but not in the Basement Room. The avoidance of major overlapping sessions of SCIC and SCAF should enable small delegations to engage more easily with these Committees. Time for the Conservation Measures Drafting Group (CM Drafting Group) is also provided, with one session in the Wombat Room with interpretation.
Global threats to ocean biodiversity have generated a worldwide movement to take actions towards improved conservation and management. Several international targets have recommended the adoption of marine protected areas (MPAs) in national and international waters. While establishing MPAs in international waters has proven to be challenging in most of the world, national governments and the Commission for the Conservation of Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) have succeeded in adopting multiple MPAs in the Southern Ocean. But are these MPAs representative of Southern Ocean biodiversity and ecosystems? Here we examine the current status of Antarctic MPAs and future outlook, using existing benthic and pelagic bioregionalizations as a proxy for biodiversity. Currently about 9.9% of the Southern Ocean is protected in MPAs, with 3.9% being encompassed by no-take areas. While this is a relatively large proportion of protection when compared to other international waters, current Antarctic MPAs are not representative of all bioregions. Implementing additional protected areas, including those currently under negotiation, would move towards better representation of the Southern Ocean benthic and pelagic regions. Also, this assessment of representativeness was conducted on the basis of broad benthic and pelagic bioregionalizations, which generally use physical environmental data to delineate areas of likely-similar biodiversity. However, there may be variations in species pools and ecosystem structure between (or even within) ocean basins, and at a finer scale, than is reflected in the bioregions. Further analysis is needed, across multiple scales to help resolve where patterns of biodiversity exist and whether they are encompassed within existing and proposed MPAs.
