Human-driven impacts on marine habitats: A regional meta-analysis in the Mediterranean Sea

2010-09-01

Abstract excerpt

Habitat destruction is one of the main threats to environmental integrity. Assessing the consequences of human impacts is crucial both to predict and prevent structural and functional changes of habitats. However, to date almost all studies on marine threats, from regional to global scales, have been entirely qualitative and generally based on little more than expert opinion. We have developed a meta-analytical ap...
