Oceanographic heterogeneity facilitates gelatinous zooplankton niche space and diversity
Abstract Gelatinous zooplankton serve diverse ecological roles in shelf food webs—from grazers to predators. However, their spatial niches are poorly resolved, especially at detailed taxonomic levels, due to conventional techniques that are unable to measure distributions at fine spatial scales.

Distribution and abundance of ichthyoplankton in Florida Bay [PDF]
Ichthyoplankton was sampled at 14 stations with 60 cm bongo nets fitted with 0.333 mm mesh in basins throughout Florida Bay in 1994-1995. In addition, I compared collections made using an epibenthic sled to those made with standard ichthyoplankton bongo

Larval Entrainment Through Fort Randall and GAVINS Point Dams, Lewis and Clark Lake, South Dakota
ABSTRACT Entrainment of Walleye Sander vitreus and Sauger Sander canadensis has been documented in all the Missouri River reservoirs in South Dakota and is a hypothesized mechanism through which source‐sink dynamics occur. However, an assessment of larval entrainment through Fort Randall Dam and Gavins Point Dam, which bound Lewis and Clark Lake, has ...

Distribution, feeding condition, and growth of Japanese Spanish mackerel (Scomberomorus niphonius) larvae in the Seto Inland Sea [PDF]
Distribution of eggs and larvae and feeding and growth of larvae of Japanese Spanish mackerel (Scomberomorus niphonius) were investigated in relation to their prey in the Sea of Hiuchi, the Seto Inland Sea, Japan, in 1995 and 1996.

The distribution of estuarine fish larvae: nutritional condition and co-occurrence with predators and prey [PDF]
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(-

Abstract Invasive carp have severely damaged aquatic ecosystems in the USA, particularly in the Mississippi River Basin. Behavioral deterrents have been developed in the last few decades to control population expansion into new ecosystems. However, none of these deterrents are capable of controlling early‐life stage carp, which have limited or no ...
