Influence of Regional Oceanography on the Distributions, Trophic Interactions, Growth, and Survival of the Early Life History Stages of Fishes

Creator:

Swieca, Kelsey

Abstract:

Most marine fishes experience high rates of mortality during their early life history stages with far reaching consequences for adult population dynamics. Within a few weeks of hatching, relatively small changes in larval growth and mortality rates can lead to orders of magnitude variability in year-class strength. Growth and survival...
