Larval orientation to reefs and reef sound

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2002
Reef systems form a discontinuous spatial mosaic leading many reef organisms to have a dispersal phase in their early life history. At the end of this phase, the larvae must settle onto a reef. Recent evidence supports the view that both larval fish and invertebrates are more active participants in finding suitable settlement habitat than had ...
