| Lineage | The dataset was generated in QGIS from a 3nm buffer around the coastline of the Jason Islands. This buffer was then used to derive a simplified boundary, as per the "Guidance on defining boundaries for MMAs in the Falkland Islands" , included as an Annex in Golding. N. & Aug?. A.A., 2017. The Assessment of Fishing Closure Areas as Sites for wider marine management in the Falkland Islands (known as the AFCAS report). Evidence supporting this boundary is from a variety of sources, and includes information on globally significant populations of seabirds. Further data sources are listed in the AFCAS report. Notice that the surface coverage of the polygon refers only to the area of sea; the land is excluded. |
