abstract:
Aim To study the combined effects of climate change on connectivity between marine protected areas (MPAs) and larval supply to the continental shelf.
Location The Mediterranean Sea, where sea surface temperatures are expected to strongly increase by the end of the 21st century, represents an archetypal situation with a dense MPA network but resource overexploitation outside.
