A Method to Assess the Risk of Sun Coral Invasion in Marine Protected Areas

Abstract: The safest and most effi cient method of avoiding costs and impacts associated with biological invasions is to prevent the introduction and establishment of non-native species. In Brazil, two invasive coral species have been causing ecological, economic and social impacts: Tubastraea coccinea and Tubastraea tagusensis. This work presents a protocol to analyze the risk of invasion in Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in the State of Rio de Janeiro considering the main vector of these species on the Brazilian coast.… Show more

“…Rather, the take-home message is that the inclusion of anthropogenic variables as potential determinants of occurrence can alter the relative importance of environmental variables and can enrich the ecological interpretation of species distribution models. Other studies have also emphasized the importance of including anthropogenic factors in species distribution models of corals [11].…”

“…It is commonly known as orange cup coral or sun coral [8][9][10]. Tubastraea coccinea, whose occurrence in its nonnative range is mainly associated with artificial structures such as oil/gas platforms and shipwrecks, is considered a major threat to marine biodiversity [6,[11][12][13]. A recently developed species distribution model identified important determinants of T. coccinea invasion in the northern GoM and projected its potential range expansion [14].…”

“…Modelos de análise de risco já foram desenvolvidos, alguns mais complexos e objetivos, como o desenvolvido para o mexilhão-dourado (Limnoperna fortunei) nas usinas hidrelétricas (Belz, 2006) e para o coral--sol Tubastraea spp. nas áreas marinhas protegidas do Rio de Janeiro (Couto et al 2021), e outros mais simples e subjetivos, como os desenvolvidos por Bomford et al (2005). O desenvolvimento de modelos de análise de risco tem sido incentivado e favorecido por acordos internacionais e organizações associadas à importação de animais vivos, como a Convenção sobre Diversidade Biológica (CDB), Convenção Internacional de Proteção de Plantas (IPPC), Organização Mundial de Saúde Animal (OIE) e Organização Mundial do Comércio (OMC).…”
