Marine reserves
From Coastal Wiki
Marine reserves belong to MPAs and they are defined as: Marine Protected Areas permanently closed to all fishing and other extractive uses with limited exceptions for research and education by permit [1]
There are also other definitions with many different terms that have been used to describe marine reserves although the terminology seems to be very confusing to scientists and the society as well. Other common terms used to describe marine reserves include: no- take areas, nonconsumptive areas, fishery reserves [2] marine ecological reserves, sanctuary preservation areas [3] research natural areas [4]
