Habitat and marine reserve status drive reef fish biomass and functional diversity in the largest south Atlantic coral reef system (Abrolhos, Brazil)
The effects of fishing have been documented across coral reefs worldwide. No-take marine
reserves do not only act as a conservation tool but also allow an opportunity to study impacts …
