States Parties are encouraged to employ a variety of archaeological sciences for investigation purposes, as for instance archaeology, namely underwater, nautical and Page 23 maritime archaeology, archaeo-botany, archaeo-zoology, chemistry, cultural anthropology, dendrochronology, geology, history, historical documentation, physical and information sciences and x-raying, as appropriate, for the gathering of archaeological data.

Bottom seine nets are generally also regarded as having low impact on benthic invertebrates.

A comprehensive evaluation of the current state of the resources and their associated invertebrate communities could thus not be made.

NEAFC also reported establishing large MPAs based on the general considerations of creating no take zones to preserve, protect and/or facilitate the restoration of resources and associated invertebrate communities, and to protect representative VMEs against potentially significant adverse impacts.

The Xi’an Declaration on the Conservation of the Setting of Heritage Structures, Sites and Areas, adopted in 2005 by the General Conference of ICOMOS7 defined the setting of a heritage area as “the immediate and extended environment that is part of, or contributes to, its significance and distinctive character” and, having acknowledged that the significance and distinctive character of historic areas derive from the relationship “with their physical, visual, spiritual and other cultural context and settings”, it promoted the development of proper planning tools and strategies for the conservation and management of the areas forming the setting.

Fed aquaculture is aquaculture production that utilizes, or has the potential to utilize, aquafeeds of any type; in contrast to the farming of filter-feeding invertebrates and aquatic plants, which relies exclusively on natural productivity.

This category includes aquatic vertebrates (fish and aquatic mammals (e.g. whales)), aquatic invertebrates (e.g. jellyfish), as well as molluscs (e.g. clams, snails), crustaceans (e.g. shrimp, crab, lobster), and echinoderms (e.g. sea urchins, sea cucumbers).

[...] success of the Jehol vertebrate diversity had a complex geological and paleoenvironmental background; it was also closely related to both the interactions among vertebrates, invertebrates and plants in the Jehol ecosystem, and the appearance of many major morphological innovations of each vertebrate group.
