Conserving biodiversity in a human-dominated world: degradation of marine sessile communities within a protected area with conflicting human uses.
Conservation research aims at understanding whether present protection schemes are adequate for the maintenance of ecosystems structure and function across time. We evaluated long-term variation in rocky reef communities by comparing sites surveyed in 1993 and again in 2008. This research took place...
