Inter-population differences in otolith shape, morphology and chemistry have been used effectively as indicators for stock assessment or for recognizing environmental adaptation in fishes.

Abstract During snorkelling near Frøya, central Norway, on 6 October 2025, a pair of adult lumpsuckers (Cyclopterus lumpus) was observed engaged in apparent prespawning behaviour in shallow kelp habitat. Such activity is surprising, as the species is mainly considered a spring spawner throughout the eastern Atlantic and is the focus of a targeted ...

Visualization of automatic otolith extraction.
The top row shows the found location of the otolith center in each of the three anatomical directions. The bottom row shows a maximum intensity projection of each of the three anatomical directions of the extracted otolith region.

Otolith Chemistry Reveals Natal Region of Larval Capelin in Coastal Newfoundland, Canada
Identifying natal origins of animals is key to determining the relative productivity of natal habitats, dispersal of individuals among local populations (i.e., connectivity), and, ultimately, metapopulation dynamics.

Abstract Knowledge on the ecology and life‐history traits of coastal marine species is vital to inform their conservation and management, especially as their coastal habitats come under increasing threats. However, such data have never been collated for four of the five families in the suborder Syngnathoidei—the close relatives of the better‐studied ...

Otolith microchemistry can be used to determine the natal origins of fish. Our feasibility study using single water samples has determined that the water chemistry around Lakes Rotorua and Rotoiti, have different elemental compositions warranting ...

The question whether temperate marine fishes typically consist of self-sustaining populations or "open" populations still remains unresolved. At the heart of this population connectivity problem lays the nature of the stock separation mechanisms.

Abstract Atlantic herring Clupea harengus are total spawners that exhibit a large degree of reproductive plasticity and have substantial intra‐annual variation in their energetic condition. Recent research suggests that the species may be declining in energetic condition in the northwest Atlantic Ocean from the few historical records, but comparisons ...

This study used otolith microchemistry to investigate movement of common smelt and rainbow trout between Lake Rotorua and Lake Rotoiti. Rainbow trout were collected from Lake Rotoiti, Lake Rotorua and the Ohau Channel, and smelt were collected from ...

Otolith shape analysis is commonly used in fisheries sciences to validate the relationship with fish length, to discriminate between stock units of fish, and to identify fish species from archeological data or stomach contents.
