• PRINCIPLES FOR THE DESIGN OF MARINE RESERVES (2003, background): “The principles distilled here from modeling studies of marine reserves (see Guenette et al. 1998 and Gerber et al. 2003 for reviews) appear to provide the beginning of a potentially valuable theory for the design of marine reserves.”
• A long-term, spatially replicated experimental test of the effect of marine reserves on local fish yields (2005, background): “They are also often promoted as one tool to help manage fisheries (Gell and Roberts 2002; Russ 2002; Gerber et al. 2003).”
• The ‘shifting baseline’ phenomenon: a global perspective (2008, background): “The optimal size of marine reserves will depend on conservation needs and goals, quality and amount of critical habitat, and the particular characteristics of species or biological communities (Gerber et al. 2003).”
• When do marine reserves increase fishery yield (2006, background): “The evidence presented here and in most other models indicates that long-term closures are unlikely to increase yield when open area fishing mortality is at or less than that which produces MSY (Gerber et al. 2003; Gårdmark et al. 2006).”
• Toward a Dynamic Metacommunity Approach to Marine Reserve Theory (2004, background): “The design of reserve systems requires a sound theoretical foundation, which has led to the beginning of a science of reserve design, both in marine (Gerber et al. 2003) and terrestrial systems (ReVelle et al. 2002).”
• A theory for optimal monitoring of marine reserves (2005, background): “There is some evidence that spawning biomass, abundance and average size of fishes may increase in marine reserves (Rowley 1994; Halpern 2003).”
• The ecology of rafting in the marine environment. III. Biogeographical and evolutionary consequences (2006, background): “Building on the metapopulation concept, it has been recognised that a single isolated MPA has only a limited potential for the protection of endangered species (Gerber et al. 2003).”
• Connectivity, sustainability, and yield: bridging the gap between conventional fisheries management and marine protected areas (2009, background): “However, large closure fractions ([25%) resulted in some increases in YPR, but only at levels of fishing mortality much higher than those producing MSY in the no-reserve case (see Fig. 1 in Gue ´nette et al. 1998, or Fig. 1a in Gerber et al. 2003 ).”
• Models and indicators for assessing conservation and fisheries-related effects of marine protected areas (2008, positive): “Assessing MPA effects from dynamic models A number of dynamic models of fisheries and exploited populations have been developed in the last decade to evaluate conservation and fisheries-related effects of MPAs (Gerber et al. 2003).”
• Molecular genetic structure suggests limited larval dispersal in grass rockfish, Sebastes rastrelliger (2003, background): “Genetic information can be used to estimate mean larval dispersal distance, a parameter of critical importance in managing coastal fisheries for species where dispersal is confined to the planktonic larval and juvenile stages (Palumbi 2001; Gerber et al. 2003 ).”
• MARINE RESERVE DESIGN AND THE EVOLUTION OF SIZE AT MATURATION IN HARVESTED FISH (2005, background): “…population dynamics in MPAs, one common result is that MPAs are more likely to minimize loss in yield or to supply fisheries if they protect heavily fished species (e.g., Man et al. 1995, Holland and Brazee 1996, Sladek Nowlis and Roberts 1999, Gerber et al. 2002; reviewed by Gerber et al. 2003).”
• The use of demographic sensitivity analysis in marine species conservation planning (2004, background): “Marine reserves are a relatively new approach to marine conservation, with the vast majority of literature on marine reserve theory published since 1992 (see Gerber et al., 2003 for review).”
• Evidence-based marine protected area planning for a highly mobile endangered marine vertebrate (2013, background): “While MPA design based on a single-species approach is often criticized (Gerber et al., 2003), our study further highlighted the complex issues associated with meeting the requirements of one species (Babcock et al.”
