Figure 6.
Effects of fishing for 50 years followed by the creation of a feeding-ground reserve. The annual harvest ratio was 0.6 in the stock's feeding grounds (RF = 1) and was applied before and after creation of the reserve. Results are shown for three different reserve areas (0.2, 0.4, and 0.6); reserve area increases with line thickness. The dashed lines describe a population that is not protected by a reserve. Values shown are means for 30 independent model runs. The legend in panel B applies to both panels.
