Clements, Cody S. Hay, Mark E. <i>Acanthaster</i> move selectively to Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). <p>Movement directions of initial (solid dots) and final (open dots) <i>Acanthaster</i> relocations from release points at MPA/non-MPA borders on each side of the MPA at each of the three villages. Arrows represent the resultant vector (R) for initial (black) and final (gray) relocations. * and * indicate a significant difference between <i>Acanthaster</i> movement towards MPAs (white region) rather than fished areas (shaded region) (Modified Hodges-Ajne test, <i>p</i> < 0.050).</p> density;MPA;support Acanthaster enemies;foundation species;Acanthaster densities;no-take Marine Protected Areas;outbreak;Marine Protected Areas;crown-of-thorns sea stars 2017-02-06
