Key Points

Benthic assemblages vary significantly across sub-Antarctic marine protected areas, impacting conservation efforts.
A notable increase in calcium carbonate structures correlates with specific environmental conditions observed.
Analysis of benthic assemblages highlights factors influencing distribution patterns in conservation areas.
Findings suggest the need for tailored conservation strategies to address spatial differences in marine biodiversity.
