Data from: How far have we come? A review of MPA network performance indicators in reaching qualitative elements of Aichi Target 11

This dataset is based on a systematic literature review to identify indicators used to assess MPA network effectiveness in achieving the qualitative elements. Web of Science core collection database (1900 to April 2019) and Elsevier’s Scopus database (1995 to April 2019) has been searched. Key search terms used in Web of Science and Scopus (last search date 08 April 2019 are \"marine protected area network*\" OR \"marine reserve network*\" OR \"MPA network*\" OR \"no-take network*\" OR \"marine protected area system\" OR \"marine reserve system*” OR \"MPA system*\" OR \"no-take system*\" OR \"LMMA network\" OR \"locally managed marine area network\" OR \"network of MPAs\" OR \"network of marine protected areas\" OR “network of marine reserves” AND \"effect*\" OR \"performance\" OR “improve*” OR \"success\" OR “benefit\" OR \"enhance*\" OR \"impact*\" OR \"outcome\" OR \"support\" OR \"ecolog*\" OR \"abundance\" OR \"density” OR \"size\" OR \"length\" OR \"biomass\" OR “richness” OR \"diversity\" OR \"habitat quality\" OR \"number\" OR \"social*\" OR \"livelihood\" OR “health” OR \"wellbeing\" OR \"well-being\" OR \"income\" OR \"employment\" OR “ economic*” OR \"support\" OR \"food security\" OR “conflict” OR \"participation\" OR \"biodiversity\" OR \"manage*\" OR \"equit*\" OR “represent*“ OR \"connect*\" OR \"integrate*\" OR \"governance\" OR \"adapt*\"OR \"touris*\" OR \"recreation\". For all selected publications, we reviewed titles and abstracts to ensure that studies evaluated or discussed the effectiveness of some aspects of an MPA network or system of MPAs. Each of the final publications selected were coded for: (1) geographic location of the study; 2) one or more of the six Aichi Target 11 qualitative elements evaluated; (3) one or more of the dimensions covered by the research (ecological, social, economic, or governance); (4) the stages being evaluated in the process of effective management framework for the assessment of protected area management effectiveness; and (5) the variable(s) used to evaluate each element of the MPA network. Finally, (6) we hierarchically organized each variable into an indicator, noting that some variables were already indicators.

本数据集基于系统文献综述，旨在识别用于评估海洋保护区（Marine Protected Area, MPA）网络实现定性目标相关效能的指标。本次研究检索了Web of Science核心合集数据库（1900年—2019年4月）与爱思唯尔（Elsevier）旗下Scopus数据库（1995年—2019年4月）。本次检索的最终日期为2019年4月8日，所用检索式为：("marine protected area network*" OR "marine reserve network*" OR "MPA network*" OR "no-take network*" OR "marine protected area system" OR "marine reserve system*" OR "MPA system*" OR "no-take system*" OR "LMMA network" OR "locally managed marine area network" OR "network of MPAs" OR "network of marine protected areas" OR "network of marine reserves") AND ("effect*" OR "performance" OR "improve*" OR "success" OR "benefit" OR "enhance*" OR "impact*" OR "outcome" OR "support" OR "ecolog*" OR "abundance" OR "density" OR "size" OR "length" OR "biomass" OR "richness" OR "diversity" OR "habitat quality" OR "number" OR "social*" OR "livelihood" OR "health" OR "wellbeing" OR "well-being" OR "income" OR "employment" OR "economic*" OR "support" OR "food security" OR "conflict" OR "participation" OR "biodiversity" OR "manage*" OR "equit*" OR "represent*" OR "connect*" OR "integrate*" OR "governance" OR "adapt*" OR "touris*" OR "recreation")。针对所有入选文献，我们均审阅其标题与摘要，以确保相关研究评估或讨论了海洋保护区网络或海洋保护区体系的某一方面的效能。最终入选的每篇文献均针对以下内容进行编码：(1) 研究的地理位置；(2) 所评估的爱知目标11（Aichi Target 11）六项定性要素中的一项或多项；(3) 研究覆盖的维度之一或多项（生态、社会、经济或治理维度）；(4) 保护区管理效能评估框架中，有效管理流程所对应的被评估阶段；(5) 用于评估海洋保护区网络各要素的变量（或变量组）。最后，(6) 我们将每个变量按层级归类为指标，同时注明部分变量本身已属于指标。更多详细信息可参阅相关文献（DOI: 10.1111/conl.12746）。
