What can size distributions within cohorts tell us about ecological processes in fish larvae?
Scientia Marina, 2009 Marine fish larvae are subject to variable environments, which is probably reflected in their growth and survival rates. Mortality rates are generally high and size-dependent.

Screening for viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus in marine fish along the Norwegian coastal line.
PLoS ONE, 2014 Viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV) infects a wide range of marine fish species. To study the occurrence of VHSV in wild marine fish populations in Norwegian coastal waters and fjord systems a total of 1927 fish from 39 different species were ...

The dynamics of a metapopulation: changes in life-history traits in resident herring that co-occur with oceanic herring during spawning. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Different populations of Atlantic herring are regarded as forming a metapopulation, but we know little about the dynamics of the connectivity and degree of interbreeding between the populations.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Coastal areas are important habitats for early life stages of many fish species. These habitats are used as nursery grounds and can provide a significant contribution to the recruitment of a fish population.

Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2017 Changes in clutch and egg size in many avian species have been linked to seasonal variation, female physiological state, and laying date during breeding season. These reproductive variables have also been linked to population status and habitat variables.

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Vulnerability of Atlantic herring larvae to predation by yearling herring
Marine Ecology Progress Series, 1989 T h s study quantifies age-related changes in the vulnerabhty of Atlantic herring Clupea harengus larvae to predation by larger herring through experimental investigations of capture probability in the laboratory and gross vulnerabhty in large enclosures (mesocosms) Seventy-six laboratory predation trials were staged involving larvae averaging 8.6 to ...

Ecosystem scale acoustic sensing reveals humpback whale behavior synchronous with herring spawning processes and re-evaluation finds no effect of sonar on humpback song occurrence in the Gulf of Maine in fall 2006. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 We show that humpback-whale vocalization behavior is synchronous with peak annual Atlantic herring spawning processes in the Gulf of Maine. With a passive, wide-aperture, densely-sampled, coherent hydrophone array towed north of Georges Bank in a Fall ...
