Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are designed to enhance biodiversity and ecosystem services. Some MPAs also established benefit fisheries through increased egg larval production, or the spillover of mobile juveniles adults. Whether influences fishery landings depend on population status movement patterns target species both inside outside MPAs, as well behavior fleet. We tested whether an increase in lobster two newly influenced local catch, fishing effort, catch-per-unit-effort (CPUE) within...
Abstract Co‐operation in the management of shared fish stocks is often necessary to achieve sustainability and reduce uncertainty. The United States America (USA) Mexico share a number marine ecosystems, while there some binational co‐operation scientific research, unilateral decisions are generally rule. We present case study using giant sea bass ( Stereolepis gigas , Polyprionidae) highlight how these research asymmetries can skew national perceptions population status for fully...
Abstract The conservation benefits of marine reserves are well established but their contribution to adjacent fisheries via spillover is less certain and context‐dependent. Theoretical predictions do not always match empirical evidence from individual reserves, so carefully designed studies essential for accurately assessing its fisheries. Biomass buildup within reserve borders, also usually takes time develop. In 2003, a network no‐take was in the Northern Channel Islands (NCI) southern...
Anthropogenic impacts on marine environments can be far-reaching and variable, in an effort to mitigate these impacts, protected areas (MPAs) have been established globally. Indirect effects of MPAs food webs consumer behavior revealed through the diet generalist predators, like octopuses, since their is a reflection both preference prey availability. Octopuses (Octopus bimaculatus Verrill, 1883) invertebrate species were collected around Santa Catalina Island, CA summer 2012, 2013, 2014,...
Nearshore kelp forest ecosystems are highly vulnerable to climate change and ocean warming, which can alter community dynamics the trajectory of species recovery in unpredictable ways. Abalone (Haliotis spp.) populations Southern California Bight (SCB) still recovering from a combination overfishing disease, despite closure fisheries 20 years ago active restoration programs for abalone region. For this study, recruitment sea urchin were surveyed artificial habitats (16–22 m) across spatial...
