The distribution of estuarine fish larvae: nutritional condition and co-occurrence with predators and prey [PDF]
, 2000 Fish larvae were collected monthly between March and September 1997 in the Mira and Guadiana estuaries (southern Portugal). Hydrological parameters were registered and zooplankton samples were obtained simultaneously. Densities of fish larvae (ind.100 m(-

The effects of parasitism and body length on positioning within wild fish shoals [PDF]
, 2002 The influence of body length and parasitism on the positioning behaviour of individuals in wild fish shoals was investigated by a novel means of capturing entire shoals of the banded killifish (Fundulus diaphanus, Lesueur) using a grid-net that ...

Fish abundance with no fishing: predictions based on macroecological theory [PDF]
Journal of Animal Ecology, 2004 SummaryFishing changes the structure of fish communities and the relative impacts of fishing are assessed usefully against a baseline. A comparable baseline in all regions is fish community structure in the absence of fishing.The structure of unexploited communities cannot always be predicted from historical data because fisheries exploitation usually ...

Distance from a fishing community explains fish abundance in a no-take zone with weak compliance [PDF]
, 2015 There are numerous examples of no-take marine reserves effectively conserving fish stocks within their boundaries. However, no-take reserves can be rendered ineffective and turned into ‘paper parks’ through poor compliance and weak enforcement of reserve

Recent Region-wide Declines in Caribbean Reef Fish Abundance [PDF]
Current Biology, 2009 Profound ecological changes are occurring on coral reefs throughout the tropics, with marked coral cover losses and concomitant algal increases, particularly in the Caribbean region. Historical declines in the abundance of large Caribbean reef fishes likely reflect centuries of overexploitation.

Design and evaluation of 16S rRNA sequence based oligonucleotide probes for the detection and quantification of Comamonas testosteroni in mixed microbial communities [PDF]
, 2006 Background The β-proteobacterial species Comamonas testosteroni is capable of biotransformation and also biodegradation of a range of chemical compounds and thus potentially useful in chemical manufacturing and bioremediation.
