Monthly Ocean Science Roundup – May 2024

Date: 5th June 2024

This issue explores:

  • Ocean protection quality is lagging behind quantity: Applying a scientific framework to assess real marine protected area progress against the 30 by 30 target
  • Global mapping and evolution of persistent fronts in Large Marine Ecosystems over the past 40 years
  • Whales and cephalopods in a deep-sea arms race

Welcome to the May 2024 issue of the OneOcean Science Mailout.

In this edition we present three new papers. These focus on:

  • An analysis of the capacity of the world’s 100 largest marine protected areas (MPAs) to deliver positive biodiversity outcomes.
  • The global mapping and evolution of persistent fronts in Large Marine Ecosystems (LMEs) over the past 40 years.
  • An in-depth analysis of the interactions between whales and cephalopods in a deep-sea arms race.
