In editions where there is an EWE model, it is possible to apply policies to the geometries in this layer. There is optional seasonal protection and buffer protection policy for the different types of fleets available in that edition. | ||
You can temporarily or permanently ban specific fishing fleets in each Marine Protected Area, both existing and new ones. You can also implement buffer zones of a specific radius around each Marine Protected Area, in which specific fishing fleets are temporarily or permanently banned. | |||
It is also possible to change the fishing effort of one or more fleets within the sea basin. Activate the Fishing controls by ticking the appropriate checkbox in the Plan Wizard. Subsequently change the appropriate Fishing effort sliders. | |||

The World Database on Protected Areas (WDPA) | |||
===Description=== | |||
The World Database on Protected Areas (WDPA) is the most comprehensive global database of marine and terrestrial protected areas. It is a joint project between UN Environment Programme and the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and is managed by UN Environment Programme World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC), in collaboration with governments, non-governmental organisations, academia and industry.The WDPA is updated on a monthly basis, and can be downloaded using the button in the top right of this page. | |||
