Figure 7.

Matrices of larval connectivity between MPAs. Source MPAs are on the y-axis, and MPA sinks are on the x-axis. Colours represent the fraction of years in which a connection occurred. Isolated MPAs have no connected MPAs in either row or column (e.g. Anton Dohrn Seamount in (d)). Pure sources of larvae, with no inward connections, have connections in the row but none in the column (e.g. East Mingulay in (a)). Pure sinks, with no outward connections, have connections in the column but none in the row (e.g. Southeast Rockall Bank in (a)).
