Abstract:
"The papers presented here address three key aspects of marine reserve science. The first set of papers examines the theoretical underpinning of reserves, especially the relationship between reserve design and fisheries/conservation design. ... A second set of papers reviews existing data on several key ecological and life history features of marine species and communities. ... [T]he third set of papers examines the practical application of reserve design criteria in real world settings."
