This study evaluated how the spatiotemporal allocation of fishing effort for lobsters in the Galapagos multiple-use Marine Protected Area was affected by the interaction of diverse climatic and human drivers, before and after implementation of no-take zones. The study used GIS data on fishing effort and BRTs to attempt to identify how these drivers affected spatial fishing patterns. The paper concludes that the boom-and-bust exploitation of the sea cucumber fishery and the global financial crisis (2007-2009), rather than no-take zone implementation, were the most important drivers affecting the distribution of fishing effort for lobsters across the archipelago. The study is spatially and temporally extensive (most of the Galapagos Islands, 1997-2011), the data are fairly well-analyzed and interpreted, and the manuscript is well-written. I have no major disagreements with the conclusions. I also have some sympathy with the suggestions that the MPA network placement could be revisited or even revised, and outside the network TURFS encouraged. My comments are mostly to assist the authors with publication.
