The article compares the effects of human activities and environmental factors on different marine ecosystems. By studying various ecological indicators, the researchers found that when commercial fishing exceeds certain levels, it can lead to significant changes in the ecosystem. These findings help us understand how different pressures impact marine environments and can guide decisions for better ecosystem management.
