Sea lice, especially Lepeophtheirus salmonis and Caligus spp., have the greatest economic
impact of any parasite in salmonid fish farming and are also a threat to wild salmonids. Here …

We summarize what is known of the biophysical interactions that control vertical migration
and dispersal of decapod larvae, asking the following main questions: How common is …

Abstract Selective Tidal-Stream Transport (STST) is used by invertebrates and fishes for
horizontal movement. In general, animals ascend from the bottom and are carried by tidal …

Abstract The European green crab, Carcinus maenas, has a native distribution that extends
from Norway to Mauritania. It has attracted attention because of its recent invasions of …

A high resolution nested model of the Western Iberia shelf is developed and compared with
field observations. We use an embedded particle tracking submodel that includes advection …

Larval development in brachyuran crabs includes a number of zoeal stages followed by a
single megalopal stage. Zoeae and megalopae are relatively strong swimmers, and …

Coasts subjected to upwelling are very advective environments where zooplanktonic
organisms face forcible removal from the system. Partition of time between a surface layer …

The present review addresses recent findings made in the western Iberia ecosystem on the
behavioural and physical interactions that regulate dispersal, supply to coastal habitats and …

This overview combines our recent studies with existing information to develop more
complete conceptual models of selective tidal-stream transport (STST) of ovigerous female …

The vertical distribution of decapod larvae off the northwest Portuguese coast was analysed
in relation to associated environmental conditions from sampling during a 69 h period …
