Climate change is resulting in rapid poleward shifts in the geographical distribution of many
tropical fish species, but it is equally apparent that some fishes are failing to exhibit expected …

1. The impact of environmental disturbance and habitat loss on associated species is
expected to be dependent on a species' level of specialization. We examined habitat use …

Climate change is resulting in rapid poleward shifts in the geographical distribution of
tropical and subtropical fish species. We can expect that such range shifts are likely to be …

Ontogenetic niche shifts are taxonomically and ecologically widespread across the globe.
Consequently, identifying the ecological mechanics that promote these shifts at diverse …

Factors affecting recruitment and early survivorship of juvenile coral reef fishes were studied
on St. Croix, United States Virgin Islands. The faunal assemblage studied included diurnally …

Marine spatial population dynamics are often addressed with a focus on larval dispersal,
without taking into account movement behavior of individuals in later life stages. Processes …

Coral‐reef fishes exhibit a wide range of habitat preferences at settlement. However, the
consequences of these preferences to fitness and population dynamics are poorly known …

Many coral reef fishes have restricted depth ranges that are established at settlement or
soon after, but the factors limiting these distributions are largely unknown. This study …

Coral reef ecosystems are under a variety of threats from global change and anthropogenic
disturbances that are reducing the number and type of coral species on reefs. Coral reefs …

We investigated spatial and temporal variability in recruitment of coral reef fishes to ST.
Croix, US Virgin Islands, with the goal of assessing the importance of habitat and physical …
