Question
Chapter 20, Problem 3WIO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The advantages, disadvantages, and challenges of the assisted migration strategy.
Introduction:
Changes in global temperatures, ocean acidification, and sea-level rise may impact species and force them towards extinction by eliminating their vital habitat. This may affect abundance, distribution, survival and genetic diversity of species.

What are important characteristics of adequate monitoring plans for translocation programs? Select all the correct options.
Select 3 correct answer(s)
Leaving released individuals aside and focusing on monitoring the population as a whole.
Avoid advertising the success of program to local communities so that released individuals are not bothered by curious people.
A long-term plan that involves monitoring the population over many years.
Monitoring the costs of the program so that cost-effective analysis can be made.
Monitoring other ecosystem elements beyond the released species, such as prey and vegetation.
About adaptation plans, which of the following sentences are NOT true?
Select two or more:
In the existence of a sector-specific adaptation plan for fisheries and aquaculture, it becomes less relevant for the sector to be included in a broader adaptation planning process.
The mainstreaming of fisheries and aquaculture issues in national adaptation processes is improving but often remains incomplete and superficial.
The mainstreaming of fisheries and aquaculture issues in national adaptation processes has been successfully completed due to global efforts in compliance with the Paris Agreement.
It is necessary to have a sector-specific adaptation plan for fisheries and aquaculture.
Explain the notion of community-based conservation. Why have conservation advocates been turning to this approach? What challenges exist in implementing it?

- The adaptation planning process draws on broad principles of the ecosystem approach to fisheries (EAF) and aquaculture (EAA). Which of the following options are NOT what EAF and EAA are balancing through good governance? Select two or more: Single-species management Predictive rather than adaptive management Ecological well-being Human well-beingarrow_forwardAbout adaptation planning, which of the following sentences are true? Select two or more: An adaptation plan identifies the most effective adaptation measures that strive to fulfil the adaptation needs for a particular production system. Risk assessment evaluates the impacts of climate change in terms of their likelihood to occur and severity of the consequences, while vulnerability assessment describes the extent to which a production system or its characteristics are susceptible to or unable to cope with the impacts of climate change. The adaptation measures identified during the adaptation planning process will be implemented by fishers and fish farmers only. Prior to the stakeholder meeting, the entity leading the adaptation planning process needs to make sure that there is no similar climate adaptation planning ongoing or finalized.arrow_forwardMatch the approach to protection with the example from the academic literature. Species approach Hotspot approach Ecosystem approach 1. Wolf reintroductions into the Yellowstone environment restored riparian species and increased biodiversity because wolves controlled the numbers of elk and coyotes which allowed plants, beaver, and foxes to rebound (Ripple and Beschta 2003). 2. The creation of a reserve protects the red-brown treecreeper (Climacteris picumnus). This approach looks to accommodate processes that threaten species viability, such as fragmentation and feral predators (Nicholson et al. 2013). 3. Species richness of tiger beetles, Cicindelidae, is positively correlated with bird and butterfly diversity across North America, Australia, and the Indian subcontinent (Reid, 1998).arrow_forward
