Feeding biomechanics of juvenile red snapper (Lutjanus campechanus) from the northwestern Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
SUMMARYJuvenile red snapper settle across several complex habitats, which function as nurseries for young fish. Little is known about their life history or feeding biomechanics during this time. However, recent studies have shown higher growth rates for juveniles located on mud habitats adjacent to low profile reefs, perhaps because of varied prey ...

A histological study of gametogenesis in captive red snapperLutjanus campechanus
Gametogenesis was monitored histologically in wild-caught red snapper (Lutjanus campechanus, Poey) maintained in captivity under simulated natural photothermal conditions. Gonads were collected every 2–3 weeks (average n = 14) for histology during the pre-spawning season (February to May, temperature increasing from 16°C to 24°C).

ABSTRACT The need for ecosystem‐based fisheries management (EBFM) is growing more urgent as environmental changes, species shifts, new ocean uses, and other factors force oceans toward novel states. In the United States, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Marine Fisheries Service (NOAA Fisheries) developed an EBFM Policy in ...

Fish utilize energy from carbohydrate sources in small amounts because of the low secretion of the enzyme amylase for digestion. One alternative is to increase the availability of exogenous digestive enzymes by utilizing bacteria from the digestive tract that have amylolytic activity.

Cost drivers of commercial‐scale marine finfish hatchery production in southern tier US states
Abstract The United States has the resources to become a leader in the production of marine finfish and has developed a series of national strategic plans that include increased support for the growth of commercial marine finfish production. An economically viable hatchery phase of production is necessary to supply fingerlings needed for growout ...

ABSTRACT Artificial structures deployed in marine environments as reefs are often presumed to increase fish production. However, our literature review found a lack of evidence, with only 12 studies empirically quantifying secondary production at artificial reefs, and only three studies using a control site.

Timing and locations of reef fish spawning off the southeastern United States.
Managed reef fish in the Atlantic Ocean of the southeastern United States (SEUS) support a multi-billion dollar industry. There is a broad interest in locating and protecting spawning fish from harvest, to enhance productivity and reduce the potential ...

Spatial and Temporal Heterogeneity of Fish Spawning Dynamics on the West Florida Shelf During Fall
ABSTRACT Identifying spawning areas for economically and ecologically important fishes is critical for fisheries conservation and ecosystem‐based management. We used genetic barcoding to identify fish eggs collected across the West Florida Shelf (WFS) during September of 2013, 2014, and 2019.
