Description:

"The aims of this study were twofold. First, we sought to evaluate the effectiveness of current Marine Protected Areas (MPA's hereafter) in promoting the abundance and biomass of fishes. Second, we examined how fish populations are distributed across Bermuda's reef platform, in order to identify regions and habitats of high biodiversity or significance to harvestable and ecologically-important species"--P. 2.
