• AN EVALUATION OF THE EVIDENCE FOR LINKAGES BETWEEN MANGROVES AND FISHERIES: A SYNTHESIS OF THE LITERATURE AND IDENTIFICATION OF RESEARCH DIRECTIONS (2005, background): “…often ignored or overlooked (Sheridan & Hays 2003), although some recent papers have attempted to address this problem, e.g., survival and growth (Stoner 2003), movement between juvenile and adult habitats (Gillanders et al. 2003, Mumby et al. 2004, see also the review on seagrass nurseries in…”
• Distribution of sympatric seahorse species along a gradient of habitat complexity in a seagrass-dominated community (2005, background): “While hydrodynamic processes influence recruitment patterns (Jenkins et al. 1997, Stoner 2003), many marine species actively select seagrass beds over unvegetated habitats, as well as microhabitats of different complexities within seagrasses (Bell & Westoby 1986b, Edgar 1990).”
• Environmental influences on the occurrence of coastal sharks in estuarine waters (2010, background): “Identification of critical habitat is a well-recognized and essential component of sustainable resource management (Stoner et al. 2001, Stoner 2003).”
• Linking temperate demersal fish species to habitat: scales, patterns and future directions (2013, background): “Stoner (2003), however, points out that seemingly appropriate habitats may never be occupied, with specific locations being more important than particular habitat forms.”
• Remote Sensing of Coral Reefs for Monitoring and Management: A Review (2016, background): “For example, nurseries of the queen conch (Lobatus gigas) occur within seagrass beds, but only in areas with high larval settlement rates, high macroalgal productivity, and l w r tes of mortality from predation [278].”
