Abstract

Marine protected areas (MPAs) are subsets of traditional fishing grounds that have been closed to fishing as a major component of fisheries management and sustainability programs worldwide. Fish density is higher in MPAs than in AFRs and reef-wide fish density is higher in reefs with MPAs. The biological and ecological benefits of MPAs are illustrated in this figure.
