Despite current measures regulating captures, the erosion of natural stocks of the edible Paracentrotus lividus sea urchin of Mediterranean Sea, raises concerns about the sustainability of its exploitation and the stability of the associated ecosystem. In 2009, upon request of professional fishermen, resource managers and the urban district of Toulon Provence Méditerranée, we have initiated a program of research to better understand the influence of natural and anthropogenic processes that shape natural populations. The objectives of the thesis were (1) to monitor the demographic evolution of P. lividus communities on eight sites of the Toulon area between 2011 and 2013 before and after the legal harvesting period, (2) to develop a reliable...
