Conservation benefits of a large marine protected area network that spans multiple ecosystems
Joshua G Smith e outros, 2025 · Conservation Biology
Statewide implementation of no-take MPAs across California increased the biomass of targeted fish species relative to fished reference areas (effect size = 0.497, p < 0.001).

targeted (i.e., fished) fish biomass was positively associated with regulatory protection and was significantly greater inside no‐take MPAs compared with areas that allowed take (effect size [E.S.] = 0.497, p < 0.001)
Contexto
What changed: Establishment of fully protected no-take marine reserves across multiple marine ecosystems. Comparison: Paired reference areas open to commercial and recreational fishing. Limits: Observational paired survey design across heterogeneous ecosystems with varying gear types, historical fishing pressure, and potential spatial selection effects.
