“…In addition, a reasonable number of studies have specifically tried to demonstrate movement of target species from marine reserves to fished areas using tag-recapture technlques, e.g. lobsters (Davis & Dodrill 1980, shrimps (Gitschlag 1986), snow crabs (Yamasaki & Kuwahara 1990) and reef fish (Beinssen 1989, BI-yant et al 1989, Buxton & Allen 1989, Rutherford et al 1989, Holland et al 1993, Attwood & Bennet 1994, Davles 1995 In add~tion, several studies have modeled the potential effects of movemen.ts of adult fish from marine reserve to fished areas on yield per recrult of target species (Polacheck 1990, Russ et al 1992, DeMai-tlni 1993 The establishment of a no-fishing sanctuary that covered 2%) of the fishing ground for snow crabs in Japan led to a 46% increase in mean catch per unit effort in areas adjacent to the sanctuary after 5 yr of sanctuary protection (Yamasaki & Kuwahara 1990). This increase in catch rate was reported to be most evident within 3 miles (ca 5 km) of the boundary of the sanctuary.…”
