The Role of Backreef Soundscapes and their Spatial Structure for Recruitment of Tropical Marine Larvae
<p>Underwater sound is a cue used by many marine larvae to orient to coastal habitats including backreef, sponge-dominated hardbottom habitat in the Florida Keys (Florida, USA) – a particularly “noisy” coastal habitat. However, the distance over which acoustic cues are attractive to …

The variability of Lagrangian transport in the southern Benguela Current upwelling system
… ecological processes, including the dispersal of marine larvae. Physical advection by currents is an important mechanism for egg and larvae transport success in the SBUS since the spawning areas and recruitment areas are separated by a long distance. High-resolution numerical model simulations of …

Investigating the ecological role of sound on coral reefs
… recognized for their ecological relevance to marine life. Larval stages of many species use acoustic cues to optimize their choice of settlement habitat. Coral reefs feature particularly complex natural soundscapes, yet little is known about the potential effects of these sounds on coral …
