  abstract = {{M}arine {P}rotected {A}reas ({MPA}s), initially set up to protect critical habitats and improve biodiversity, are increasingly seen as a tool for the spatial management of fisheries. {H}owever, {MPA} managers rarely have a scientific assessment of the effectiveness {MPA}s from a fishery perspective. {T}hus this study analyzes the bio-ecological effects of {B}amboung {MPA} by comparing two nearby tropical estuaries: {B}olong de {B}amboung (closed to fishing) and {B}olong de {S}angako (fished). {F}or this purpose, usual ecological indicators have been estimated: abundance, biomass, specific richness and {S}hannon index. {T}hese indicators were calculated from experimental fishery data (2008-2016) in both bolongs using the same purse seine sampling protocol. {T}he preliminary results showed the presence of 69 species in the {MPA}, compared to 61 species in the {S}ongako bolong. {F}or {B}amboung {MPA}, the mean abundance is 25 individuals for a biomass of 72 kg/ha, while for the {S}angako bolong, the average abundance is 36 individuals for a biomass of 39 kg/ha. {T}he {S}hannon index is equal to 1.8 in the {AMP} and 1.7 in the bolong of {S}angako. {T}hese indices are close to their maximum values, indicating a more or less equal distribution of individuals between different species. {H}owever, the higher biomass in the {MPA} compared to the exploited site indicates the presence of large individuals in the {B}amboung {MPA}.},
