![]() In particular, indicators and assessment methods were defined, setting a solid basis for future MSFD assessments. Following a series of workshops, the group provided recommendations for the GES assessment of marine turtles. Habitats Directive, OSPAR and Barcelona Conventions). A dedicated international expert group was created to explore and test potential assessment approaches, in coherence with other environmental policies (i.e. Relying on an expert consultation, the goal of this study was to develop indicators and a common assessment approach to be employed by European Union Member States to evaluate the status of marine turtle populations in the frame of the MSFD. This is specifically the case for marine turtle species, which are listed under the Biodiversity Descriptor of the MSFD. However, depending on available scientific knowledge and monitoring programs in place, quantitative GES assessments are not always feasible. 23Institute of Marine Sciences-Okeanos, University of the Azores, Horta, PortugalĮnvironmental policies, including the European Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD), generally rely on the measurement of indicators to assess the good environmental status (GES) and ensure the protection of marine ecosystems.22Marine and Environmental Sciences Centre, Faculty of Sciences of the University of Lisbon, Lisbon, Portugal.21Marine Zoology Unit, Cavanilles Institute of Biodiversity and Evolutionary Biology, University of Valencia, Valencia, Spain.20Centro Internazionale in Monitoraggio Ambientale (CIMA) Research Foundation, Savona, Italy.19ALNITAK–Save The Med Foundation, Poligono Industrial de Marratxi, Balearic Islands, Spain.18European Commission, Joint Research Centre (JRC), Ispra, Italy.17CEFE, University of Montpellier, CNRS, EPHE-PSL University, IRD, Montpellier, France. ![]() ![]() 16Société Herpétologique de France, Réseau Tortues Marines de Méditerranée Française, Paris, France.15Department of Ecology, School of Biology, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece.14Centre for Ecology and Conservation, College of Life & Environmental Sciences, University of Exeter, Exeter, United Kingdom.13University of Sfax, Sfax Faculty of Sciences, Marine Biodiversity and Environment Laboratory, Sfax, Tunisia.12Centre d’Etude et de Sauvegarde des Tortues Marines de Méditerranée (CESTMed), Grau du Roi, France.11Aquarium La Rochelle, Centre d’Etudes et de Soins pour les Tortues Marines, Quai Louis Prunier, La Rochelle, France.10EcoOcéan Institut, Montpellier, France.9Association Marineland, Antibes, France.8Ethology Unit, Department of Biology, University of Pisa, Pisa, Italy.7Departament de Biologia Evolutiva, Ecologia i Ciències Ambientals and Institut de Recerca de la Biodiversitat (IRBio), Facultat de Biologia, Universitat de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain.6Research Institute for Integrated Management of Coastal Areas, Universitat Politècnica de València, Gandía (Valencia), Spain.5Istituto Superiore per la Protezione e la Ricerca Ambientale (ISPRA), Biodiversity Department, Roma, Italy.4Rastoma, Réseau des acteurs de la sauvegarde des tortues marines en Afrique Centrale, Paris, France.2Laboratoire Ecologie, Systématique et Evolution, Université Paris-Saclay, CNRS, AgroParisTech, Ecologie Systématique et Evolution, Orsay, France.1Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle, Paris, France.Mazaris 15, Claude Miaud 16,17, Andreas Palialexis 18*, Jacques Sacchi 16, Ricardo Sagarminaga 19, Paola Tepsich 20, Jesús Tomás 21, Frederic Vandeperre 22,23 and Françoise Claro 1 Fanny Girard 1, Alexandre Girard 2,3,4, Jonathan Monsinjon 3†, Antonella Arcangeli 5, Eduardo Belda 6, Luis Cardona 7, Paolo Casale 8, Sidonie Catteau 9, Léa David 10, Florence Dell’Amico 11, Delphine Gambaiani 12, Marc Girondot 2, Imed Jribi 13, Giancarlo Lauriano 5, Paolo Luschi 8, David March 9,14, Antonios D.
