We describe the larval occurrence and density of six fish species with contrasting life
histories and examine their relationships with oceanographic variables during two seasons …

Larval recruitment, a critical component of population connectivity, has been under
investigated compared to larval dispersal. We developed a backward‐in‐time Lagrangian …

Computing Lagrangian trajectories with ocean circulation models is a powerful way to infer
larval dispersal pathways and connectivity. Defining release areas and timing of particles to …

The tragic accident of the Macondo platform operated by British Petroleum (BP) unleashed
in 2010 one of the largest oil spills in history, lasting over three months, spilling nearly 500 …

Larval genetic information influences populations' genetic pools, causing genetic
homogenization or structuration. So, knowing about adult and larval genetic information is …

Calanoid copepods (CC) are key contributors to the biological carbon pump and pelagic
trophic dynamics. The deep-water regions of Perdido and the Bay of Campeche in the …

Abstract The extensive Yucatan Shelf (YS) in the southern Gulf of Mexico provides habitat for
many marine species and supports important fisheries. A striking feature is the regional …

Abstract In the Gulf of Mexico (GoM), mesoscale features strongly influence hydrographic
and circulation patterns, which can favor larval retention and/or transport. Most …

Estuaries are very productive habitats that serve as spawning and nursery grounds for
fisheries species. The Rio de la Plata (RdP) Estuary and its maritime front sustain valuable …

To gain a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying spatial heterogeneity in
ichthyoplankton communities in the SW Atlantic, we examined for the first time the latitudinal …
