We utilized a spatial and temporal analyses of genetic structure, supplemented with
ecological and oceanographic analysis, to assess patterns of population connectivity in a …

An understanding of larval dispersal and connectivity in corals provides valuable insight into
the processes of population maintenance and replenishment and is vital for effective …

Coral reef conservation management policy often focuses on larval retention and
recruitment of marine fish with scant data available on important, less motile reef-building …

We quantified benthic community structure on shallow (10 m isobath) reefs separated by 3–
130 km on four islands in the south Pacific, and evaluated the roles of disturbances vs. coral …

Recent reports of localized larval recruitment in predominately small‐range fishes are
countered by studies that show high genetic connectivity across large oceanic distances …

The persistence and resilience of many coral reef species are dependent on rates of
connectivity among sub-populations. However, despite increasing research efforts, the …

The relatively recent fields of terrestrial landscape and marine seascape genetics seek to
identify the influence of biophysical habitat features on the spatial genetic structure of …

Coupled bio-physical models of larval dispersal predict that the Costa Rica–Panama (CR–
PAN) reefs should constitute a demographically isolated region in the western Caribbean …

Abstract Mitochondrial control region (HVR-1) sequences were used to identify patterns of
genetic structure and diversity in Naso vlamingii, a widespread coral reef fish with a long …

Summary 1 For a wide range of organisms, heritable variation in life‐history characteristics
has been shown to be strongly subject to selection, reflecting the impact that variation in …
