Are MPAs in the transition zone between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea effective? We have mapped cumulative effects of multiple stressors in the Skagerrak. Anchored in this, and a statistical model, we have compared pressures within outside the MPAs. Most MPAs are so-called 'paper parks'.

A giant & inspiration. Met when I was a grad student and as a post doc we were in a NCEAS working group. I told him I was interviewing for a faculty position at Yale. After getting the job, dept. chair said I had an unsolicited recommendation. I suspect he was the culprit. Thank you, Bob!

We already have N0-E8 in exams! Most parents can work out that 8 is worth more than 0! Also, the people who first sat the NCEAs are now in their late 30s/early 40s- it’s not like, a recent thing.
