Figure 5

Averaged adult density of the wild population (\(\hbox {m}^3\,\hbox {m}^{-2}\)) at year 20 over \(r_K\), the carrying capacity ratio, for 4 levels of external recruitment (orange—R = 0 \(\hbox {larvae m}^{-2}\), green—R = 20 \(\hbox {larvae m}^{-2}\), blue—R = 200 \(\hbox {larvae m}^{-2}\), purple—R = 2000 \(\hbox {larvae m}^{-2}\)) at Weymouth under (A) observed temperature conditions, (B) a 0.6 \(^\circ \hbox {C}\) temperature increase and (C) a 2 \(^\circ \hbox {C}\) temperature increase, and at Poole under (D) observed temperature conditions, (E) a 0.6 \(^\circ \hbox {C}\) temperature increase and (C) a 2 \(^\circ \hbox {C}\) temperature increase.
