    Abstract Fisheries social-ecological systems (SES) in the North Sea region confront multifaceted challenges stemming from environmental changes, offshore wind farm expansion, and marine protected area establishment. In this paper, we demonstrate the utility of a Bayesian Belief Network (BN) approach in comprehensively capturing and assessing the intricate spatial dynamics within the German plaice-related fisheries SES. The BN integrates ecological, economic, and socio-cultural factors to generate high-resolution maps of profitability and adaptive capacity potential (ACP) as prospective management targets. Our analysis of future scenarios, delineating changes in spatial constraints, economics, and socio-cultural aspects, identifies factors that will exert significant influence on this fisheries SES in the near future. These include the loss of fishing grounds due to the installation of offshore wind farms and marine protected areas, as well as reduced plaice landings due to climate change. The identified ACP hotspots hold the potential to guide the development of localized management strategies and sustainable planning efforts by highlighting the consequences of management decisions. Our findings emphasize the need to consider detailed spatial dynamics of fisheries SES within marine spatial planning (MSP) and illustrate how this information may assist decision-makers and practitioners in area prioritization. We, therefore, propose adopting the concept of fisheries SES within broader integrated management approaches to foster sustainable development of inherently dynamic SES in a rapidly evolving marine environment.

    Abstract Determining the overall effects of human activities on the estuaries, seas and coasts, as a precursor to marine management, requires quantifying three aspects. These are: (a) the area in which the human activities take place, (b) the area covered by the pressures generated by the activities on the prevailing habitats and species, in which pressures are defined as the mechanisms of change, and (c) the area over which any adverse effects occur. These features can be respectively termed the activities-footprints, the pressures-footprints and the effects-footprints. The latter in turn incorporates both the effects on the natural system and the effects on ecosystem services from which society extracts goods and benefits. This viewpoint article explains the rationale behind this typology and proposes definitions for each of these three types of footprints.

    Abstract Background: Prevalence surveys are useful tools for assessing the appropriateness of antimicrobial therapy.
    Objectives: The primary objective was to assess patterns of antimicrobial utilization and appropriateness in New Brunswick hospitals. The secondary objective was to assess the impact of hospital size and the presence of a penicillin allergy label on antimicrobial appropriateness.
    Methods: A point prevalence survey was conducted of inpatients taking 1 or more systemic antimicrobials during admission to hospitals in New Brunswick. A structured protocol and web-based data collection tool (National Antimicrobial Prescribing Survey) were used for this survey. Data regarding hospital size and presence of a penicillin allergy label were also collected. Antimicrobial utilization was assessed in terms of guideline compliance and appropriateness. Results were summarized descriptively. A χ
    Results: Ten hospitals participated, and a total of 2200 patients were admitted at the time of the survey. The overall prevalence of antimicrobial use was 22.7% (500/2200). A total of 648 antimicrobials were ordered. The most frequently prescribed antimicrobials by class were first-generation cephalosporins (14.0%, 91/648), third-generation cephalosporins (11.3%, 73/648), and piperacillin-tazobactam (10.2%, 66/648). The most common indications for antimicrobial therapy were respiratory tract infections (27.3%, 177/648), urinary tract infections (12.2%, 79/648), and intra-abdominal infections (11.4%, 74/648). Compliance with local or regional treatment guidelines, where applicable, was 66.2% (188/284). Provincially, 68.1% (441/648) of the antimicrobial orders were deemed appropriate. Larger centres had substantially higher rates of appropriateness (
    Conclusions: Several opportunities for targeted interventions were identified to improve antimicrobial prescribing, including decreasing the use of broad-spectrum antimicrobials, increasing guideline compliance, and ensuring documentation of antimicrobial duration by prescribers.

    Abstract The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), adopted in September 2015, are accompanied by targets which have to be met individually and collectively by the signatory states. SDG14 Life Below Water aims to lay the foundation for the integrated and sustainable management of the oceans. However, any environmental management has to be based around targets which are SMART - specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time bounded - otherwise it is not possible to determine whether management actions are successful and achieve the desired aims. The discussion here shows that many of the targets adopted for SDG14, and especially a detailed analysis of Target 1, are aspirational rather than fully quantified. In order to move towards making the targets operational, we advocate merging the language of environmental management with that used by industry for linking risks to the environment, management performance and ensuing controls. By adopting an approach which uses Key Performance Indicators ('KPIs'), Key Risk Indicators ('KRIs') and Key Control Indicators ('KCIs'), we advocate that a degree of rigour leading to defendable actions can be brought to marine management.

    Abstract Marine policy and management has to cope with a plethora of human activities that cause pressures leading to changes to the natural and human systems. Accordingly, it requires many policy and management responses to address traditional, cultural, social, ecological, technical, and economic policy objectives. Because of this, we advocate that a fully-structured approach using the IEC/ISO 31010 Bow-tie analysis will allow all elements to be integrated for a cost-effective system.This industry-standard system, described here with examples for the marine environment, will fulfil many of the demands by the users and uses of the marine system and the regulators of those users and uses. It allows for bridging several aspects: the management and environmental sciences, the management complexity and governance demands, the natural and social sciences and socio-economics and outcomes. Most importantly, the use of the Bow-tie approach bridges systems analysis and ecosystem complexity. At a time when scientific decisions in policy making and implementation are under question, we conclude that it provides a rigorous, transparent and defendable system of decision-making.
