Larval supply of shorefishes to nursery habitats around Lee Stocking Island, Bahamas. II: Lunar and oceanographic influences

A study set up plankton nets around Lee Stocking Island Bahamas to monitor the larval supply of fish in nursery habitats through two consecutive winters. Results suggest that interactions between larval behavior and physical environment, including tides and oceanographic features, play a role in det...

Zusammenfassung:A study set up plankton nets around Lee Stocking Island Bahamas to monitor the larval supply of fish in nursery habitats through two consecutive winters. Results suggest that interactions between larval behavior and physical environment, including tides and oceanographic features, play a role in determining larval supply.
