Marine protected areas (MPAs) have been implemented globally to protect marine habitats and enhance biodiversity, often displacing commercial and recreational fishing activities previously occurring in the area. While the ecological impacts of MPAs have been the subject of considerable attention, the economic impacts on the displaced sectors have generally received less consideration. In this study, we examine the impacts of i...

Aim Globally distributed pelagic fishes are typified by very low to negligible genetic differentiation at oceanic scales arising from high gene flow and (or) large population sizes. However, genomic approaches employing thousands of loci to characterise genetic variation can illuminate subtle patterns of genetic structure and facilitate demographic inference, such that effects arising from gene flow and population size can be...
