Quantifying fish otolith mineralogy for trace-element chemistry studies
Scientific Reports, 2022 Otoliths are frequently used to infer environmental conditions or fish life history events based on trace-element concentrations. However, otoliths can be comprised of any one or combination of the three most common polymorphs of calcium carbonate ...

Influence of open and closed river systems on the migrations of two northern New Zealand populations of banded kokopu (Galaxias fasciatus) [PDF]
, 2012 Otolith microchemical analysis by laser ablation inductively coupled mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used to investigate the migratory life histories of banded kokopu (Galaxias fasciatus) in two streams on the North Island of New Zealand.

Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Diet studies are fundamental for understanding trophic connections in marine ecosystems. In the southeastern US, the common bottlenose dolphin Tursiops truncatus is the predominant marine mammal in coastal waters, but its role as a top predator has ...

An extraordinary gobioid fish fossil from southern france. [PDF]
, 2013 The classification of gobioid fishes is still under discussion. Several lineages, including the Eleotridae and Butidae, remain difficult to characterize because synapomorphies are rare (Eleotridae) or have not yet been determined (Butidae). Moreover, the

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2015 In Channa striata (N=156; TL=17-60cm) sampled from the river Ganga, the annuli laid on different ageing structures such as otoliths (whole and sectioned), scales, opercular bone and vertebrae were observed for age estimation.

Listening in on the past: what can otolith δ18O values really tell us about the environmental history of fishes? [PDF]
, 2014 Oxygen isotope ratios from fish otoliths are used to discriminate marine stocks and reconstruct past climate, assuming that variations in otolith δ18O values closely reflect differences in temperature history of fish when accounting for salinity induced ...

Scientific Reports, 2023 Otoliths are calcium carbonate components of the stato-acoustical organ responsible for hearing and maintenance of the body balance in teleost fish. During their formation, control over, e.g., morphology and carbonate polymorph is influenced by complex ...

Validating the growth increment periodicity in the otoliths of three small progenetic gobies
Scientia Marina, 2021 We determined the efficacy of marking the otoliths of three small-sized progenetic gobies to validate their increment periodicity. These small gobies have high mortalities and rearing difficulties, making direct validation difficult.

Morphology of sagitta, lapillus and asteriscus of Patagonian Genidens barbus
Marine and Fishery Sciences, 2022 Otoliths are calcium carbonate structures, deposited as aragonite, located in the inner ear of bony fish. In recent years, they have become a useful tool for the determination of fish species, trophic content, age studies, and the identification of fish
