p	1	Fish price
q	1	Fish catchability
K	100	Fish carrying capacity of the environment
r	0.5	Fish growth rate
a	2	Fish mobility
γ	0–1	Distribution of Fishing effort between fishing area and artificial reef
$\alpha$	0.2	Ratio of MPA
${\beta }_0$	0.1; 1	AR attraction parameter 1
$\sigma$	0.1	AR attraction parameter 2
$\delta K$	0.1; 5	Fish carrying capacity per AR
