Adequate
Selective
Sustainable
Representative
2
Which activity is typically allowed in a general use marine zone?
Sustainable fishing and tourism
Large-scale trawling
Oil drilling
Commercial shipping
3
What is one major challenge in marine environmental planning?
Excessive data
Ignoring stakeholder input
Conflicts between user groups
Overabundance of marine parks
4
Which factor is not typically considered in designing an MPA?
Cultural significance
Habitat diversity
Water temperature
Satellite orbit paths
5
When interpreting environmental data, it's important to consider:
Temporal and spatial trends
Political opinions
The age of researchers
Socal medial reactions
6
In evaluating zoning success, which data would be most useful?
Number of park rangers
Tourist complaints
Number of boats in the area
Coral cover and fish population
7
Which of the following is NOT a strategy used in marine environmental planning?
Stakeholder consultation
Climate denial campaigns
Data monitoring
Habitat mapping
8
A "no-take" zone is most likely to lead to:
Increased pollution
Decline in fish stocks
Coral reef damage
Recovery of fish populations
9
Which is a biotic indicator of marine ecosystem health?
Nitrate levels
Temperature
Salinity
Coral bleaching rate
10
Which zone typically prohibits all extractive activities?
Tourism zone
No-take zone
Recreational fishing zone
General use zone
11
Which of the following best describes "adequacy" in MPA?
Matching international reserve size
Only protecting coastal areas
Protecting large enough areas to maintain ecosystem function
Ensuring all zones are equal in size
12
A "representative" marine reserve should:
Avoid including rare species.
Be located near cities for education
Represent key examples of all habitat types
Represent only species diversity
13
Marine protected area networks aim to be:
Comprehensive, adequate and representative
Temporary and seasonal
Expensive and exclusive
Shallow-water only
14
The term "comprehensive" in MPA design refers to:
Having flexible boundaries
Including only deep-water habitats
Being easy to enforce
Covering a wide range of ecosystems
15
The zoning plan of a marine area is primarily designed to:
Maximise tourism revenue
Organise and regulate different types of use
Eliminate marine biodiversity
Prevent all human activities
16
What does the precautionary principle emphasise in environmental management?
Acting only when evidence is conclusive
Avoiding action unless costs are low
Taking action even with scientific uncertainty
Waiting for public consensus before acting
17
A zoning plan that fails to consider Indigenous knowledge may:
Be more cost-effective
Increase biodiversity
Be more easily enforced
Lack cultural relevance and support
18
Cultural factors in MPA planning might include:
Wave height
Traditional fishing rights
Ocean currents
Nutrient levels
19
A successful MPA should have:
No monitoring programs
Unlimited access for fishing
Clear boundaries, enforcement, and stakeholder support
Very low biodiversity
20
Which of the following is a goal of zoning in marine planning?
Reducing marine biodiversity
Maximising urban development
Encouraging overfishing
Balancing human and environmental needs
