Figure 2
Mean weighted effect sizes in (a) fully and (b) partially protected areas in Mediterranean MPAs. The graph displays the weighted ratio (E) and 95% Confidence Interval (CI) in and out (fully or partially) protected areas of: fish assemblage biomass, density, and species richness; dusky grouper (Epinephelus marginatus), white seabream (Diplodus sargus sargus), and two-banded seabream (D. vulgaris) biomass and density; and sea urchin (Paracentrotus lividus and Arbacia lixula) density. Open dots correspond to mean effect sizes with confidence intervals that overlapped with zero. Sample sizes for each variable are indicated in parentheses next to effect sizes.
