4) El #tracking se consolida como herramienta fundamental para delimitar #KBAs, evaluar riesgos y avanzar en la planificaciรณn espacial marina.
Y aรบn queda mucho por hacer.
2) La #RAMPE cubre bien algunas zonas costeras de alta concentraciรณn de aves marinas, pero tiene menor cobertura en zonas pelรกgicas (especialmente en Canarias).
El solapamiento con las #KBAs es alto para algunas especies, pero insuficiente para muchas otras.

Our team from @ub.edu has recovered #GLS devices to better understand their migration. These data will help identify Key Biodiversity Areas ( #KBAs ) that are essential for their conservation.
BirdLife are hosting a workshop on a project we are leading to identify #KBAs in the Lord Howe Rise and South Tasman Sea region on the 6th Nov at 07:00 UTC.

#KBAs can guide countries in three main areas of the GBF:
a. Identification of sites of importance for biodiversity to guide expansion of protected and conserved areas to 30% by 2030
b. Identification of #OECMs
c. National spatial planning

Healthy seas provide vital resources and services for all. ๐Using #KBAs within planning processes can ensure ocean benefits are protected for future generations.๐
๐ Read our latest brief, โScaling up Ocean Conservation using Key Biodiversity Areasโ:๐ bit.ly/43JB1XQ
By prioritizing #KBAs in land-use and marine spatial planning, governments and stakeholders can ensure that development activities minimize impacts on critical habitats, enhance connectivity between ecosystems, and support the ambitious targets of the #KMGBF.
๐ #KBAs are key to achieving Sustainable Development Goals (#SDGs) and the Global Biodiversity Framework (#KMGBF), as they pinpoint and help conserve the most significant places in the world for the persistence of nature. ๐
