Total values for the 5% priority area scenario.

The location of priority areas is shown with colours indicating the following attributes: (a) Total organic carbon stock in the top 10 cm of sediment; (b) Total cumulative annual disturbance to this organic carbon from mobile bottom fishing; (c) Total net reduction in disturbance if the priority area was closed to mobile fishing and all effort was displaced to locations outside priority areas; (d) Total annual landing value of fish caught within priority areas.
