	abstract = {<p>This document deals with the latter two approaches. It recognizes that  effective conservation of the marine environment can only be achieved by  the creation of integrated management regimes which deal with all human  activities and their effects. These regimes will consist either of  general regulation of human activities affecting the marine environment  supplemented by the provision of special protection for particular areas  - small Marine Protected Areas, or of the creation of a much larger  Marine Protected Area with levels of protection varying within it  according to a zoning plan. In this document the term Marine Protected  Area (MPA) applies to marine and estuarine areas.This document presents a  framework and identifies components that must be addressed. It draws  heavily on some particular examples, but we emphasise that for each  marine area within each of the world{\textquoteright}s seas the issues, the  opportunities and consequently the form of apparently effective  solutions differ. The detail of approaches to marine conservation and  the establishment of marine protected areas must be custom designed for  each area. This document may help by discussing the issues which should  be considered and by describing some common approaches to management  problems.</p>},
