Response of Rocky Reef Top Predators (Serranidae: Epinephelinae) in and Around Marine Protected Areas in the Western Mediterranean Sea (original) (raw)
Figure 5
General additive model fitted for raw data (solid line) and residuals (dashed line) of biomass (Log[x+1] transformed) of E. marginatus, E. costae and M. rubra as a function of the smooth variable distance (in m) from the boundaries of integral reserve.
The y-axis is scaled so zero corresponds to the mean in log scale. The solid vertical line indicates the limit of the no-take zone (NTZ) and the dashed vertical line indicates the limit of the buffer zone (BZ).
