Apparently Seasonal Variations of the Seawater Sr/Ca Ratio Across the Florida Keys Reef Tract
A 4‐year time‐series of surface seawater Sr/Ca ratios was assembled across a section of the Florida Keys Reef Tract, in order to uncover any variability that might explain previously reported anomalies in regional calibrations of the coral aragonite Sr ...

Fish assemblages associated with three types of artificial reefs: density of assemblages and possible impacts on adjacent fish abundance [PDF]
We evaluated the effectiveness of wooden artificial reefs (ARs) as fish habitat. Three types of ARs, made of cedar logs, broadleaf tree logs, and PVC pipes, respectively, were deployed in triplicate at 8-m depth off Maizuru, Kyoto Prefecture, Sea of ...

Population connectivity among Dry Tortugas, Florida, and Caribbean populations of mutton snapper (Lutjanus analis), inferred from multiple microsatellite loci [PDF]
Determining patterns of population connectivity is critical to the evaluation of marine reserves as recruitment sources for harvested populations. Mutton snapper (Lutjanus analis) is a good test case because the last known major spawning aggregation in U.
