Persistence of self‐recruitment and patterns of larval connectivity in a marine protected area network

Persistence of self‐recruitment and patterns of larval connectivity in a marine protected area network

Abstract The use of marine protected area (MPA) networks to sustain fisheries and conserve biodiversity is predicated on two critical yet rarely tested assumptions. Individual MPAs must produce sufficient larvae that settle within that reserve's boundaries to maintain local populations while si...
