Re-evaluating the effect of wind on recruitment in Gulf of Maine Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua) using an environmentally-explicit stock recruitment model
Hare, Jonathan A.; Brooks, Elizabeth N.; Palmer, Michael C.; Churchill, James H. (2013-10)A previous study documented a correlation between Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua) recruitment in the Gulf of Maine and an annual index of the north component of May winds. This correlation was supported by modeling studies ... -
Complexity and simplification in understanding recruitment in benthic populations
Pineda, Jesus; Reyns, Nathalie B.; Starczak, Victoria R. (2008-06-04)Research of complex systems and problems, entities with many dependencies, is often reductionist. The reductionist approach splits systems or problems into different components, and then addresses these components one by ... -
Influence of larval transport and temperature on recruitment dynamics of North Sea cod (Gadus morhua) across spatial scales of observation
Romagnoni, Giovanni; Kvile, Kristina Øie; Dagestad, Knut‐Frode; Eikeset, Anne Maria; Kristiansen, Trond; Stenseth, Nils Christian; Langangen, Øystein (Wiley, 2020-04-12)The survival of fish eggs and larvae, and therefore recruitment success, can be critically affected by transport in ocean currents. Combining a model of early‐life stage dispersal with statistical stock–recruitment models, ...
