Our new pub provides a great intro to the State Marine Aquaculture Policy Dashboard: a publicly-available, living database collating state-level policy and legislative data related to the management of the mariculture industry in the United States journals.plos.org/plosone/ar…

I am very proud of our paper, led by @DavidGillMarine. Implementing a mix of MPA types based on our findings could result in more equitable outcomes for people, while also achieving greater conservation gains. Check it out: pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1073/pna…

If you work on marine aquaculture management or policy in the U.S., you'll want to check out our new State Marine Aquaculture Policy Dashboard. bit.ly/495MphM to explore policy info across the 23 coastal states. Join our webinar to learn more bit.ly/4b4oTn0

Check out this great new paper led by @katiearkema in @NatureEcoEvo. I was honored to be asked to write a News & Views piece about it: rdcu.be/ddxwU

Check out this paper where we synthesize and harmonize the large collection of MPA design guidelines in the scientific literature. Awesome work leading this effort @echelle_burns!
