Evidence from genetic and Lagrangian drifter data for transatlantic transport of small juvenile green turtles (2010, background): “…cycles, and considered that these played the major role in determining the dispersal of hatchlings and early juveniles (Hughes, 1974; Carr & Meylan organisms, swimming ability and the strength of waves and currents may determine distribution and choice of habitat (e.g. Fulton & Bellwood, 2004).”
Spatial prediction of demersal fish distributions: enhancing our understanding of species–environment relationships (2009, background): “…4 species may be attributed to unmeasured environmental variables found important in influencing fish distributions such as temperature, exposure and productivity (Ebeling et al. 1980, Martini et al. 1997, Babcock et al. 1999, García-Charton & Pérez-Ruzafa 2001, Rueda 2001, Fulton & Bellwood 2004).”
Critical swimming speeds of late-stage coral reef fish larvae: variation within species, among species and between locations (2005, background): “Research has found a strong relationship between swimming capability and among-habitat and microhabitat use by adult labrids in both tropical (Fulton et al. 2001) and temperate ( Fulton and Bellwood 2004 ) locations, suggesting that swimming capabilities may be of general importance in shaping habit”
