Fish have complex life cycles that contribute to interannual variability in recruitment. The
growth–mortality hypothesis has received broad acceptance as a driver of recruitment …

In fishes, the growth-mortality hypothesis has received broad acceptance as a driver of
recruitment variability. Recruitment is likely to be lower in years when the risk of starvation …

Larval snapper (Chrysophrys auratus, Sparidae) sampled over 7 years had different diets
and feeding strategies between years with lower versus higher larval and 0+ abundances …

Recruitment success in demersal fish species that settle in estuaries after a pelagic larval
duration in coastal waters is dependent on (1) abiotic and biotic variables that promote good …

For many fish species, growth and mortality of larvae are closely coupled, with faster-
growing larvae generally experiencing higher survivorship in the plankton, which may lead …

Knowledge of spatial and temporal variation in the abundance of early life stages is
important to developing an understanding of juvenile recruitment processes and, ultimately …

Larval and early juvenile fish living in temperate environments with limited resources face
conflicting metabolic demands. To optimise their survival probability, fish must balance the …

Several long-standing hypotheses purport variation in recruitment to be positively correlated
with pelagic environmental conditions that enhance larval growth, survival, and/or delivery to …

Understanding the causes of variation in recruitment of marine fishes has been a central
goal for marine ecologists, fishery scientists and resource managers over the last century …

The population dynamics and fishery productivity of snapper, Chrysophrys auratus, in South
Australia are strongly driven by inter-annual variation in recruitment. This variable …
