However, data are often insufficient at region-wide scales to assess the effects of extraction in coral reef ecosystems of developing nations.Methodology/Principal FindingsHere, I overcome this difficulty by using a publicly accessible, fisheries-independent database to provide a broad scale, comprehensive analysis of human impacts on predatory reef fish communities across the greater Caribbean region. Specifically, this study analyzed presence and diversity of predatory reef fishes over a gradient of human population density. Across the region, as human population density increases, presence of large-bodied fishes declines, and fish communities become dominated by a few smaller-bodied species.Conclusions/SignificanceComplete disappearance of several large-bodied fishes indicates ecological and local extinctions have occurred in some densely populated areas. These findings fill a fundamentally important gap in our knowledge of the ecosystem effects of artisanal fisheries in developing nations, and provide support for multiple approaches to data collection where they are commonly unavailable.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Fishery-independent data reveal negative effect of human population density on Caribbean predatory fish communities","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2024-12-10 01:33:17.368041","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+01:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2009,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2018-02-13","DateCreate":"2016-03-09","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000265836900002","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":1,"DOI":"10.1371/journal.pone.0005333"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":253768,"PubliDate":2009,"Pagination":"9 pp","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"4","Issue":"5","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":123954,"SerRR":"PLoS One.
