Conservation of aquatic resources requires management of both fishing effort and the
mosaic of habitats used by nekton that sustain fisheries production. Within this …

We examined the nursery role of salt marshes for transient nekton by searching the literature
for data on density, growth, and survival of juvenile fishes and decapod crustaceans in …

We used a drop sampler to characterize use of the marsh-edge ecotone by small fishes
along two transects running inland from the Gulf of Mexico for ca. 25 km in Louisiana's …

Stimulated by nutrients from the Mississippi River, the vast coastal wetlands of the river's
past and present deltas interface with the Gulf of Mexico to form a complex and prolific …

The Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens
Act) of 1996 requires the identification of essential fish habitat (EFH) for fishery species …

By means of electrofishing, we examined seasonal and size-class variation in habitat
preference by juvenile brown trout (Salmo trutta) in a third-order river in northern Finland …

Spawning site selection by spotted seatrout and black drum was studied by locating
drumming aggregations through the use of a hydrophone. From March 1987 to October …

Flathead grey mullet (Mugil cephalus L. 1758) are commonly found in tropical and
temperate estuaries. In spite of their ecological and economical importance, little is known …

A stratified study of microhabitat use by grey mullet on the island of Minorca (Balearic
archipelago, western Mediterranean) showed that the distribution of all the species was …

The relationships among microhabitat use, food habits, conspecific density and recent
growth rate for estuarine-dependent juvenile spotted seatrout, Cynoscion nebulosus, and …
