Discriminating natal source populations of a temperate marine fish using larval otolith chemistry

TA Rogers, AJ Fowler, MA Steer… - Frontiers in Marine …, 2019 - frontiersin.org
The life cycles of many marine species depend on a dispersive larval stage that connects
spatially segregated populations. However, quantifying larval movement among populations …

Temperate southern Australian coastal waters are characterised by surprisingly high rates of nitrogen fixation and diversity of diazotrophs

LF Messer, MV Brown, PD Van Ruth, M Doubell… - PeerJ, 2021 - peerj.com
Biological dinitrogen (N 2) fixation is one mechanism by which specific microorganisms
(diazotrophs) can ameliorate nitrogen (N) limitation. Historically, rates of N 2 fixation were …

TC Barnes, C Junge, SA Myers… - Marine and …, 2015 - CSIRO Publishing
Population structure in marine teleosts is often investigated to aid conservation and fisheries
management (eg to assess population structure to inform restocking programs). We …

Ecosystem response in temperature fronts in the northeastern Arabian Sea

V Sarma, DV Desai, JS Patil, L Khandeparker… - Progress in …, 2018 - Elsevier
Productivity is low in tropical waters outside the traditional upwelling regimes, making
temperature fronts a potential marker of fish. To test the hypothesis that all temperature fronts …
