A manuscript submitted by Erick (former master student) and Parastoo (D2 student) was accepted in Ocean and Coastal Management, Elsevier. Highlights of the paper are: Developed a new methodology to evaluate Marine Protected Areas (MPAs); there is a significant gap in the perception of the health of coral reefs and their real state in El Nido MPA; the use of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) can be useful to measure the efficiency of MPAs. Congratulations Erick and Parastoo!
