European Cetacean Society Sample Clauses

European Cetacean Society. (ECS) workshop report Panigada presented the report of an ECS workshop entitled “Towards understanding the overlap of selected threats and Important Marine Mammal Areas (IMMAs) across the Mediterranean Sea”, held in April 2018, in La Spezia, Italy (available as document CCSC/APR19/SS/04). The ECS workshop was supported by ACCOBAMS as part of its ongoing effort to map specific threats to cetaceans in the ACCOBAMS area. Workshop participants discussed an overlay of the Mediterranean IMMAs with the available area-explicit information on shipping and seismic surveys, thereby giving preliminary indications of new Cetacean Critical Habitats (CCH) in the ACCOBAMS area. This was a preliminary exercise mainly to show the applicability of IMMAs to address specific place-based threats to marine mammals, and the workshop recognised that more detailed efforts should be undertaken regionally by the competent management bodies to derive appropriate mitigation actions. By way of example, three case study areas containing IMMAs — the Alborán Sea, the Northwest Mediterranean and the Strait of Sicily – were discussed during the workshop, where the overlap between IMMAs and ship traffic (suggesting the potential risk of ship strikes) and seismic survey blocks (with the potential of impacting noise production) appeared to be of special concern for marine mammals, and for fin, sperm and Cuvier’s beaked whales in particular. Participants cautioned that outside the IMMAs there might be similar or indeed other problems and pressures on marine mammals. There must be attention to marine mammal conservation throughout the Mediterranean, although within IMMAs and CCH special “place-based” measures and attention should be implemented.
