The importance of larval supply to spatial patterns of larval settlement and recruitment was
determined for a common Gulf of Maine fish (the cunner Tautogolabrus adspersus). The …

Although there is wide appreciation for the influence of variable larval transport on
recruitment, few studies have investigated the relationship between recruitment intensity and …

Seagrass beds and associated fish assemblages have been the focus of a large number of
past studies. However, the influence of small water depth changes due to tides on fish …

The ability of miniscule larvae to control their fate and replenish populations in dynamic
marine environments has been a long‐running topic of debate of central importance for …

Larvae are thought to be highly vulnerable to offshore transport of upwelling regions, limiting
recruitment to infrequent wind relaxation and downwelling events. However, larvae could …

In the spring (October and November) of 1991, postsettlement individuals of King George
whiting, Sillaginodes punctata, were collected from seagrass beds around the western coast …

From late August to December, 1994, pre-settlement larvae and post-settlement recruits of
the King George whiting, Sillaginodes punctata, were sampled approximately daily from …

Floating aggregations of seagrass wrack can serve as an ecological “hot spot” contributing
to the survival of many species in the form of habitat and food source. Considerable …

Sediment transport and resuspension are essential processes in soft-sediment
environments that mediate shellfish population dynamics, water column turbidity, and …

Abstract Surfclam (Spisula solidissima Dillwyn) larval settlement and the initial growth of
recruits were studied on the inner shelf of New Jersey. Initial recruitment was measured by …
