A diffusive predator–prey model with a protection zone☆ (2006, background): “Much research and debates can be found in the literature on the establishment of marine reserves [37,38,42,43], which are protection zones where fishing activities are banned.”
Effects of fishing on sex-changing Caribbean parrotfishes (2004, background): “They were interspersed between fishing grounds along 11 km of coastline in the Soufrière Marine Management Area (SMMA) and incorporated approximately 35% of the coral reef habitat (Roberts et al., 2001).”
LONG‐TERM ASSESSMENT OF TEMPERATE OCTOCORAL MORTALITY PATTERNS, PROTECTED VS. UNPROTECTED AREAS (2004, background): “The high dynamics of some fish taxa, for instance, seems to be behind the short-term recovery of overexploited fish populations in many MPA, an effect that has been widely publicized to support the benefits of MPA (Garcia-Rubies and Zabala 1990, Bohnsack 1998, Roberts et al. 2001).”
A long-term, spatially replicated experimental test of the effect of marine reserves on local fish yields (2005, background): “The Philippine, Kenyan, and St. Lucia studies all measured fish biomass inside and outside reserves, plus adjacent fishery yields, both before and after reserve establishment.”
Occurrence and present status of coastal dolphins (Delphinus delphis and Tursiops truncatus) in the eastern Ionian Sea (2005, positive): “The use of networks of marine reserves encompassing common dolphin critical habitats and of no-take zones aimed at protecting resident and migratory fish stocks also represent appropriate management tools to improve the feeding situation for dolphins and to create the conditions for their recovery, ”
Faith-based Fisheries (2006, background): “A paper in Science (Roberts et al. 2001) purported to show an example of how a marine protected area (MPA) increased yields outside the protected area, when in fact the abundance of fish outside the protected area increased within one year of the establishment of the MPA.”
Population recovery patterns of Southeast Asian ungulates after poaching (2010, background): “Marine reserves and no-take zones, which are similar conceptually, have successfully restored fish populations in overfished areas (Mosqueira et al., 2000; Roberts et al., 2001).”
More than One Bag for the World Fishery Crisis and Keys for Co-management Successes in Selected Artisanal Latin American Shellfisheries (2005, background): “Marine Protected Areas (MPAs: Castilla, 1999; Palumbi, 2001, 2003; Roberts et al., 2001) and areas with limited/controlled levels of fishing effort (Castilla and Defeo, 2001) have been perceived as part of the regulatory tactics directed to achieve sustainable fisheries for the future (Castilla, 200”
Understanding fish habitat ecology to achieve conservation (2005, background): “Is the linkage of habitat science to population dynamics any better in the open marine systems than for anadromous or estuarine species and management problems? In fully marine contexts, the debates on how fishing gear affects habitat quality and the consequences of marine protected areas are the ma”
Contemporary fisheries stock assessment: many issues still remain (2015, background): “…influential articles published in high-profile journals in the past decade that have focused on the dire state of the world’s fish stocks (e.g. Casey and Myers, 1998; Pauly et al., 1998; Roberts et al., 2001; Conover and Munch, 2002; Baum et al., 2003; Myers and Worm, 2003; Worm et al., 2006).”
Can protected areas contribute to poverty reduction? Opportunities and limitations. (2004, background): “The importance for local fisheries of marine protected areas and no-fishing zones, particularly those which incorporate fish spawning and nursery habitats such as estuaries, coral reefs and mangroves, is now well documented (e.g., Wells and Hildesley 1999; Ward et al. 2001; Roberts et al. 2001; Shan”
Effects of marine reserve age on fish populations: a global meta‐analysis (2009, background): “Such processes have been invoked to explain the time-lag between reserve imple mentation and spillover by large, slow-growing, late-maturing fish (Russ & Alcal? 1996; Roberts et al. 2001).”
