In coastal areas, demographic increase is likely to result in greater numbers of recreational users, with potential consequences on marine biodiversity. These effects may also occur within Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), which are popular with recreational users. Our analysis builds on data collected over a ten-year period during three year-round surveys to appraise changes in recreational boating activities in coral ecosystems. Results show that the number of boaters has greatly increased, particularly so within MPAs during weekends and the warm season, when peaks in boat numbers have become more frequent. We also observed that the number of anchored boats has increased over the period. These changes may be resulting in biophysical impacts that could be... |

With the worldwide growing of human populations in coastal areas, recreational activities are increasing and diversifying. New Caledonia is surrounded by a large lagoon that provides a shelter for these popular activities. Although most of the lagoon areas are managed through well-established Marine Protected Areas (MPA) and 80% of its surface is a World Heritage property, these uses result in accrued and increasing pressures on the coastal environment. This paper provides an overview of the research projects developed since 2000 to better understand and assess recreational uses in the New Caledonian lagoon. Most of these projects were conducted in collaboration with MPA, environmental managers and with stakeholders. |
