The Intensification of Fishing and the Rise of Tourism: Competing Coastal Livelihoods in the Calamianes Islands, Philippines (2010, background): “White et al .( 2000) have argued that the widespread practices of overfishing and coral reef destruction in the Philippines are the cause of large-scale economic losses, which could be addressed through small-scale coastal tourism.”
The destruction of the 'animal forests' in the oceans: Towards an over- simplification of the benthic ecosystems (2013, background): “tourism is very high, but it is clear that the more healthy the animal forest, the more tourist will come (White et al., 2000).”
THE EFFECTS OF SEDIMENTATION ON ROCKY COAST ASSEMBLAGES (2003, background): “…and eventually in irreversible deterioration and loss of coral reefs and associated fishery resources (e.g. Johannes 1975, Amesbury 1982, Cortés & Risk 1985, van Katwijk et al. 1993, Hunter & Evans 1995, Chou 1996, McClanahan & Obura 1997, White et al. 2000; but see Larcombe & Woolfe 1999).”
Earth observation satellite sensors for biodiversity monitoring: potentials and bottlenecks (2014, background): “…et al. 2012; Stehman et al. 2011); the decline of marine resources and the destruction of coral reefs in our oceans (Kachelriess et al. 2014; Baker, Glynn, and Riegl 2008; White, Vogt, and Arin 2000); or the observed decrease in migratory species in many regions globally (Knudsen et al. 2011).”
Steps in the construction of underwater coral nursery, an essential component in reef restoration acts (2006, background): “Initial efforts focused on the establishing of artificial reefs (Pickering et al. 1998; White et al. 2000) to enhance fisheries production (Ortiz-Prosper et al.”
Climate Change Impacts on Rural Poverty in Low-Elevation Coastal Zones (2015, background): “…from other regions show that these coral reef fishery, protection and cultural benefits are significant for many poor coastal rural communities (Badjeck et al. 2012; Barbier et al. 2011; Campbell et al. 2006; Moberg and Folke 1999; van Zanten et al. 2014; White et al. 2000; Zeller et al. 2007).”
Socioeconomic factors that lead to overfishing in small-scale coral reef fisheries of Papua New Guinea (2006, background): “…reduced fish stocks in many areas to well below their maximum sustainable yields (ICLARM [The International Center for Living Aquatic Resources Management] 1997; Tomascik et al. 1997) and destructive fishing is common (Pauly et al. 1989; Edinger 1998; White et al. 2000).”
Valuing nature: lessons learned and future research directions (2003, background): “Coral reefs represent another ecosystem under severe pressure and a comparative analysis of costs and benefits is shown in Table 9 (based on studies by under different resource extraction and management scenarios; Cesar, 1996; White et al., 2000).”
Financial Costs and Shortfalls of Managing and Expanding Protected-Area Systems in Developing Countries (2004, background): “Other studies have also demonstrated significant local benefits from conservation, such as clean water from intact cloud forests (Becker 1999) and storm protection and other services from coral reefs (White et al. 2000).”
An Overview of the Animal Forests of the World (2017, background): “animal forests will attract more tourism (White et al. 2000), generating higher income for local populations (Rodrigues et al.”
The value of estuarine and coastal ecosystem services (2011, background): “White et al. (2000) provide some estimates for the Philippines.”
