An Efficient Multi-Objective Optimization Method for Use in the Design of Marine Protected Area Networks

An efficient connectivity-based method for multi-objective optimization applicable to the design of marine protected area networks is described. Multi-objective network optimization highlighted previously unreported step changes in the structure of optimal subnetworks for protection associated with...
