We would like to estimate the ecological changes under an MPA scenario to calculate how ecosystem services will change under protection.
are the studies on the assessment of the ecological effects of MPAs, such as:
Hockings Marc, 2003. Systems for assessing the effectiveness of management in protected areas. BioScience. 53, 823-832.
Leverington Fiona, Costa Katia Lemos, Pavese Helena, Lisle Allan & Hockings Marc, 2010. A global analysis of protected area management effectiveness. Environmental Management. 46, 685-698.
but I do not know if addresses or improved ecosystem services protected by protective measures.
3 paper concerning ptrotégées areas and ecosystem services, but unfortunately not marine areas:
Hein L., 2011. Economic Benefits Generated by Protected Areas: the Case of the Hoge Veluwe Forest, the Netherlands. Ecology and Society. 16, 13.
Martín-López B., García-Llorente M., Palomo I. & Montes C., 2011. The conservation against development paradigm in protected areas: Valuation of ecosystem services in the Doñana social-ecological system (southwestern Spain). Ecological Economics.
Palomo I., Martín-López B., López-Santiago C. & Montes C., 2011. Participatory Scenario Planning for Protected Areas Management under the Ecosystem Services Framework: the Doñana Social-Ecological System in Southwestern Spain. Ecology and Society. 16, 23.
Have a look in the paper Man as a Predator in the Intertidal Zone of Southern Chile by Carlos A. Moreno; John P. Sutherland; H. Fernando Jara in Oikos, Vol. 42, No. 2. (Jan., 1984), pp. 155-160. They follow the changes of the species that dominate the landscape.
