Illegal harvesting affects the success of fishing closure areas.

Copyright © Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom 2010. ; There is clear evidence that marine reserves can be used as effective tools to foster the recovery of disturbed ecosystems. In the Azores, intense exploitation of the patellid limpets Patella candei and P. aspera has led to a rapid decline in their populations and subsequent collapse of the fishery in 1985. In 1993, legislation was passed ...

Exploitation of keystone species: population and community-level effects

Enhancing stocks of the exploited limpet Patella candei d'Orbigny via modificat...

Copyright © 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. ; It is widely recognised that microhabitats are important for a variety of marine organisms, yet this knowledge has rarely been applied in the construction of engineered structures as a means of enhancing biodiversity or populations of species at risk. Here we examined the influence of microhabitats on the distribution and survival of the exploited limpet Pa...

Exploitation of rocky intertidal grazers: population status and potential impac...

Copyright © Inter-Research 2008. ; A wide range of anthropogenic activities are impacting the ecology of coastal areas. Exploitation of marine resources is one such activity, which, through cascading trophic effects, can have influences well beyond that of the target species. We investigated the mid-rocky-shore community structure of the Azores archipelago, a seldom-studied habitat, where there is a local trad...

Rocky intertidal community structure in oceanic islands: scales of spatial vari...

Copyright © Inter-Research 2008. ; There is a clear bias in the literature on island ecology towards terrestrial rather than marine systems, which have remained comparatively poorly studied. Marine populations are typically open, and local production may have little impact on local recruitment, such that long-distance dispersal is an important determinant of population ecology. Since oceanic islands form discr...
