Sea cucumber culture, farming and sea ranching in the tropics: Progress, problems and opportunities (2012, unknown): “7 g ind−1 day−1) once they reach a size at which they can ingest larger quantities of food (Agudo, 2012; Pitt and Duy, 2004; Purcell and Kirby, 2006; Raison, 2008).”
Feeding and movement patterns of the sea cucumber Holothuriasanctori (2013, background): “Displacements between successive intervals were, however, considered to follow a straight line; usually, this movement is naturally random (Graham and Battaglene 2004; Purcell and Kirby 2006) and do not follow a straight line, so an underestimation is assumed (Carpenter 1984).”
Spatio-Temporal and Size-Dependent Variation in the Success of Releasing Cultured Sea Cucumbers in the Wild (2008, background): “Sandfish are predicted to disperse little in the first 2 years after release (Purcell and Kirby, 2006), so intermingling of individuals among quadrants within sea pens was probably limited, and we considered quadrants reviews in fisheries science vol. 16 nos.”
Sea cucumber fisheries: global analysis of stocks, management measures and drivers of overfishing (2013, background): “Displacement rates are also sluggish (Conand 1991; Purcell and Kirby 2006; Shiell and Knott 2008), so sea cucumbers are incapable of moving away quickly from patches of high density once detected and exploited by fishers.”
