Using ecological null models to assess the potential for marine protected area networks to protect biodiversity.
Marine protected area (MPA) networks have been proposed as a principal method for conserving biological diversity, yet patterns of diversity may ultimately complicate or compromise the development of such networks. We show how a series of ecological null models can be applied to assemblage data acro...
