Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-scale spatial heterogeneity, habitat structure, and the effect of marine reserves on Western Mediterranean rocky reef fish assemblages
José Antonio García-Charton,José Antonio García-Charton,Angel Pérez-Ruzafa,Pablo Sanchez-Jerez,Just T. Bayle-Sempere,Olga Reñones,D. Moreno +6 more
TL;DR: The hypotheses that species abundance and the biomass of reef fish populations is higher within than outside marine reserves, and that a north-to-south geographical gradient of these variables exists are tested, and causes of the observed patchiness of Mediterranean reef fish assemblages are probably multiple.
Journal ArticleDOI
Marine reserves: fish life history and ecological traits matter.
Joachim Claudet,Joachim Claudet,Craig W. Osenberg,Paolo Domenici,Fabio Badalamenti,Marco Milazzo,J.M. Falcón,Iacopo Bertocci,Lisandro Benedetti-Cecchi,José Antonio García-Charton,Raquel Goñi,Joseph A. Borg,Aitor Forcada,G.A. De Lucia,Angel Pérez-Ruzafa,Pedro Afonso,Alberto Brito,Ivan Guala,L. Le Diréach,Pablo Sanchez-Jerez,Paul J. Somerfield,Serge Planes +21 more
TL;DR: There is significant variation in the response of different species of fish to protection and this heterogeneity can be explained, in part, by differences in their traits, and effects vary with economic value, body size, habitat, depth range, and schooling behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Attraction of wild fish to sea-cage fish farms in the south-western Mediterranean Sea: spatial and short-term temporal variability
Tim Dempster,Pablo Sanchez-Jerez,Just T. Bayle-Sempere,Francisca Gimenez-Casalduero,Carlos Valle +4 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that coastal sea-cage fish farms may act as small (up to 160 000 m 2 ), pelagic marine protected areas (MPAs) at farms where wild fish are abundant and ecolog- ical interactions that may influence both wild fish stocks and the impact of farms must be considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gradients of abundance and biomass across reserve boundaries in six Mediterranean marine protected areas : Evidence of fish spillover?
Mireille Harmelin-Vivien,Laurence Le Direach,Just T. Bayle-Sempere,Eric Charbonnel,José Antonio García-Charton,Denis Ody,Angel Pérez-Ruzafa,Olga Reñones,Pablo Sanchez-Jerez,Carlos Valle +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the existence of gradients of fish abundance and biomass across marine reserve boundaries was assessed in six Mediterranean MPAs using underwater visual censuses performed at various distances from the core of the MPA, in integral reserve (IR), to buffer zone (BZ) and fished areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coastal salmon farms attract large and persistent aggregations of wild fish: an ecosystem effect
Tim Dempster,Ingebrigt Uglem,Pablo Sanchez-Jerez,Damian Fernandez-Jover,Just T. Bayle-Sempere,Rune Nilsen,Pål Arne Bjørn +6 more
TL;DR: Estimates indicate that salmon farms attract and aggregate over 12 000 t of wild fish into a total of just 750 ha of coastal waters on any given day in Norway, with possible consequences of these persistent, substan- tial aggregations of wild fishes at farms.
