Coastal ecosystems and the benefits they provide to people are at risk from a changing climate increasing human activities. Marine protected areas (MPAs) serve as widely used conservation tool, research on MPAs has recently expanded traditional focus ecological outcomes inclusion of ecosystem services. However, extent which quantitative assessment services informed MPA design management remains unclear. In this review, we aim understand literature societal coastal within MPAs. We find that only third papers quantify tend cultural provisioning while neglecting regulating health metrics. Furthermore, subset habitats (e.g., corals, mangroves) have received greatest attention. Studies rarely evaluate inform specific strategies or options for siting, monitoring, financing. Our results suggest comprehensively quantifying social-ecological relationships could help advance science practice, fostering resilience.

Abstract Marine protected areas (MPAs) are widely implemented tools for long‐term ocean conservation and resource management. Assessments of MPA performance have largely focused on specific ecosystems individually rarely evaluated across multiple either in an individual or network. We the 59 MPAs California's large network, which encompasses 4 primary (surf zone, kelp forest, shallow reef, deep reef) bioregions, identified attributes that best explain performance. Using a meta‐analytic framework, we ability to conserve fish biomass, richness, diversity. At scale network 3 regions, biomass species targeted by fishing was positively associated with level regulatory protection greater inside no‐take MPAs, whereas not had similar open fishing. In contrast, richness diversity were as strongly enhanced protection. The key features effectiveness included age, preimplementation fisheries pressure, habitat Important drivers single consistent spanning regions ecosystems. With international targets aimed at protecting 30% world's oceans 2030, design assessment frameworks should consider ecologically relevant scales, from networks.
