Figure 1 in Accounting for variability in life-history traits for the definition of amphidromous goby fry fisheries closure periods
Figure 1. – Ranking of the 4096 alternatives of fisheries closure periods based on the MULTIMOORA analysis on the abundance and life-history traits of Sicyopterus lagocephalus and Cotylopus acutipinnis. The best alternative is ranked 1 and the worst 4096. Fisheries closure periods are colour coded.
Data from: Bayesian inference reveals positive but subtle effects of experimental fishery closures on marine predator demographics
Global forage-fish landings are increasing, with potentially grave consequences for marine ecosystems. Predators of forage fish may be influenced by this harvest, but the nature of these effects is contentious. Experimental fishery manipulations offer the best solution to quantify population-level impacts, but are rare. We used Bayesian inference to examine changes in chick survival, body condition and population growth rate of endangered African penguins Spheniscus demersus in response to eight years of alternating time-area closures around two pairs of colonies. Our results demonstrate that fishing closures improved chick survival and condition, after controlling for changing prey availability. However, this effect was inconsistent across sites and years, highlighting the difficultly of assessing management interventions in marine ecosystems. Nevertheless, modelled increases in population growth rates exceeded 1% at one colony; i.e. the threshold considered biologically meaningful by fisheries management in South Africa. Fishing closures evidently can improve the population trend of a forage-fish dependent predator – we therefore recommend they continue in South Africa and support their application elsewhere. However, detecting demographic gains for mobile marine predators from small no-take zones requires experimental time-frames and scales that will often exceed those desired by decision-makers.

Figure 3 in Accounting for variability in life-history traits for the definition of amphidromous goby fry fisheries closure periods
Figure 3. – Representation of the six to nine month fisheries closure periods ensuring that at least 50% and 75% of abundance and life history trait diversity for Sicyopterus lagocephalus and Cotylopus acutipinnis covered by the discontinuous and continuous alternatives. The months were those selected in the best ranked alternative in the MULTIMOORA analysis.
Figure 2 in Accounting for variability in life-history traits for the definition of amphidromous goby fry fisheries closure periods
Figure 2. – Proportion of the yearly abundance and variability of life-history traits of Sicyopterus lagocephalus (in purple) and Cotylopus acutipinnis (in yellow) covered by the best ranked alternatives (with a duration from five to 10 months) of the MULTIMOORA analysis. The best alternatives of discontinuous fisheries closure periods are displayed in panel A, the best alternatives of continuous periods in panel B.
