abstract = "Projected future climate scenarios anticipate a warmer tropical
ocean and changes in surface currents that will likely influence
the survival of marine organisms and the connectivity of marine
protected areas (MPAs) networks. We simulated the regional effects
of climate change on the demographic connectivity of parrotfishes
in nine MPAs in the South Atlantic through downscaling of the
HadGEM2-ES Earth System Model running the RCP 8.5 greenhouse gas
trajectory. Results indicate a tropicalization scenario over the
tropical southwest Atlantic following an increase of sea surface
temperature (SST) between 1.8 and 4.5 °C and changes in mean
surface currents between \− 0.6 to 0.5 m s\−1
relative to present conditions. High mortality rates will reduce
demographic connectivity and increase the isolation of oceanic
islands. The simulation of organismal response to ocean warming
shows that acclimation can significantly improve (p < 0.001)
particle survival, promoting connectivity and tropicalization of
MPAs, with potential impacts on their functional integrity and
long-term resilience.",
