evidence: Geography [edit]Glorioso Islands Marine Natural Park lies between Mayotte, the Seychelles, Madagascar, and the Comoros,[1] with the territory being part of the Scattered Islands.[2]: 44 [...] History [edit]The territory of the Glorioso Islands has seen a number of problems due to illegal activities such as fishing and tourism. To keep an eye on these activities, while protecting the entire exclusive economic zone, the French Southern and Antarctic Lands and the French Marine Protected Areas Agency decided to develop a framework for managing the area.[6] [...] Scientific observation [edit]The territory of the Glorioso Islands Marine Natural Park is considered a privileged scientific observatory due to its isolation. Thus, one of the park's aims is to improve scientific knowledge of the Mozambique Channel's marine biodiversity through scientific research, including water quality studies.[6]
