• Early post-settlement mortality and the structure of coral assemblages (2010, background): “Early post-settlement mortality is usually very high (e.g. >90% for marine invertebrates; Gosselin & Qian 1997), and is both spatially and taxonomically variable (Dalby & Young 1992, Steele & Forrester 2002).”
• High mortality during settlement is a population bottleneck for a tropical surgeonfish (2004, background): “Predation that is capable of reducing a cohort by more than half in less than a day must have profound impacts on population dynamics (Steele and Forrester 2002) and will exert strong selection on individual R epo r ts traits of settling reef fishes (Searcy and Sponaugle 2001).”
• Predators, Prey Refuges, and the Spatial Scaling of Density-Dependent Prey Mortality (2004, background): “The cause of density-dependent mortality in gobies was unknown, but since predation is a major source of goby mortality (Forrester and Steele 2000, Steele and Forrester 2002) and gobies use structural refuges to escape predators, we hypothesized that a shortage of refuges might cause density…”
• Role of habitat in mediating mortality during the post‐settlement transition phase of temperate marine fishes (2007, background): “Much of the post-settlement mortality is attributed to predation (Steele & Forrester, 2002; Doherty et al., 2004) and is often mediated by habitat complexity (Beukers & Jones, 1997).”
• Larval growth history determines juvenile growth and survival in a tropical marine fish (2004, background): “Post-settlement mortality has the capacity to distort the patterns established at settlement (Schmitt and Holbrook 1999, Steele and Forrester 2002).”
• Experimental assessment of sensory modalities of coral-reef fish larvae in the recognition of their settlement habitat (2005, background): “Yet, in situ, the response of larvae to the settlement cues should be to quickly reduce the high predation at settlement (Steele and Forrester 2002; Doherty et al. 2004).”
• The predation gauntlet: early post-settlement mortality in reef fishes (2006, background): “(2004) and Planes and Lecaillon (2001), directly estimated mortality by comparing the number of settling fishes with their abundance during the days following settlement, while the remaining four studies (Steele and Forrester 2002; Webster 2002; Almany 2003, 2004) indirectly measured mortality by co”
