Before revision:  Finally, a hypothetical scenario explored alternative MPA network configurations , demonstrating how simple spatial decisions based on connectivity measures could improve recruitment and average network connectivity  .
After revision:  Finally, a hypothetical scenario explored alternative MPA network configurations , demonstrating how simple spatial decisions based on connectivity measures could improve recruitment and average network connectivity . Results demonstrate the potential of graph theory to identify non-trivial egg/larval dispersal patterns and emerging collective properties of the MPA network which are relevant for increasing protection efficiency .
