This paper considers fisheries bycatch reduction within the least-cost biodiversity impact mitigation hierarchy. It introduces conservatory offsets that are implemented earlier in the biodiversity impact mitigation hierarchy than conventional compensatory offsets used as instruments of last resort. The paper illustrates implementation in an on-going sea turtle conservation programme by the International Seafood Sustainability Foundation.

“…In the international context, numerous studies exist on the creation of marine habitats that have been quite effective (e.g. seagrass meadow restoration or the creation of artificial reefs; Levrel et al, 2012;Hudson et al, 2008;Kilbane et al, 2008;Van Dover et al, 2014). The turbines of the OWFs themselves serve as artificial reefs and thus the OWF can be discussed as an in situ compensation, accepting of course that it represents a different type of habitat with a different faunal composition compared with before the construction.…”

“…To quantify the necessity of marine compensation models, Levrel et al (2012) attempted to assess impacts by examining the loss of ecosystem services. There are examples of marine compensation measures, although most of them have been fulfilled very close to the coast, while experiences in deeper water are lacking ( Van Dover et al, 2014). Sylvain (2015) suggested assessing the marine compensation payment (e.g.…”

Aiming towards good practice in the planning and approval of offshore wind farms suggestions are provided for the amendment of environmental impact assessment (EIA), an effective marine spatial planning and the establishment of marine compensation measure. The investigation is focused on the situation in Germany as a frontrunner in ecological research on offshore wind energy. After 10 years of research in Germany, it is timely to offer a synopsis of the results especially regarding the successful investigations of mitigation measures. The results are based on published data collected in Germany over the last 10 years, as well as international research. The outcomes of the research were validated by interviewing experts using the Delphi method.Key findings for good practice in impact assessment, mitigation and compensation:1. EIAs should focus on decision-relevant subjects of protection (i.e. specific bird species and harbour porpoises). 2. There is a strong necessity for thresholds for the approval process. 3. Exclusion of OWFs in hotspots of sensitive species. 4. Application of state-of-the-art mitigation measures particularly against underwater noise to avoid damages of the hearing of porpoises. 5. The introduction of marine compensation measures is strongly suggested.

Steering Towards Sustainability Requires More Ecological Restoration

Ecological restoration of degraded ecosystems is now a global priority for addressing, and reconciling, environmental and sustainable development goals. Biocultural, bioregional, and landscape perspectives are vital for this purpose. Those working in restoration ecology, landscape ecology and conservation biology can help design, steer and implement such programs, but their work will only be effective if it is coordinated with ecological economics, law, and ethics. Many other disciplines and professions may be required as well, depending on the specific context. All scientists and professionals on a team must also be able to communicate and collaborate with non-scientists as well, including community leaders, NGOs, policymakers, landowners, and others. This is called transdisciplinarity. Here we discuss results obtained and outstanding challenges in this regard, in four landscape and bioregional scale restoration programs in South Africa, India, the USA, and Brazil. We also call for the establishment of an international network of long-term sites where research and development, capacity-building, workshops, outreach and in situ demonstration of ecological restoration, and the restoration of natural capital and ecosystem services, can all take place.
