Modeling Predator–Prey Linkages of Diadromous Fishes in an Estuarine Food Web
Abstract Historically, multiple species of diadromous fishes served as a coastal food source for commercially valuable nearshore predators. However, severe declines in diadromous fish populations in the nearshore Gulf of Maine (GOM) have impacted trophic dynamics and increased pressure on other estuarine‐dependent forage resources.
