Decreasing eel stocks: survival of the fattest? (2009, background): “Climate and oceanic changes may have influenced reproduction success and larval development, growth and migration (Knights 2003; Friedland et al. 2007).”
Evaluation of the larval distribution and migration of the Japanese eel in the western North Pacific (2011, background): “It is presently unknown if changes in productivity in the ocean can affect the growth rate of A. japonica or other species of anguillid leptocephali (Knights 2003; Friedland et al. 2007; Bonhommeau et al. 2008a, b; Miller et al. 2009), and so far there has only been one preliminary estimate of mor”
The duration of migration of Atlantic Anguilla larvae (2010, methodology): “For example, Friedland et al. (2007) used a 1-year lag for European eel, but Knights (2003) and Bonhommeau et al. (2008a and b) used a delay of 2.53 years.”
Where once the eel and the elephant were together: decline of the European eel because of changing hydrology in southwest Europe and northwest Africa? (2011, background): “The main problems with the ocean hypothesis is that there is an imperfect match between the different metrics of the ocean climate and the eel recruitment (Knights 2003; Friedland et al. 2007; Bonhommeau et al. 2008a,b; Durif et al. 2010), and also there is no record of a dramatic change in ocean ci”
Fluctuations in European eel (Anguilla anguilla) recruitment resulting from environmental changes in the Sargasso Sea (2007, background): “Friedland et al. (2007) also suggested that u tuations in latitude of the 22.5°C isotherm whi his a useful indi ator of the northern limit of eel spawning area, may a e t both spawning lo a-tion and transport of the lepto ephali out of the Sargasso Sea by in reasing retention whithin11 the Sargasso…”
Effect of El Niño on migration and larval transport of the Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica) (2007, background): “Catches of Atlantic glass eels, Anguilla rostrata and Anguilla anguilla, have also declined seriously since the late 1970s, and the decrease has been hypothesized to be related to changes in ocean–atmosphere conditions (Knights, 2003; Friedland et al., 2007).”
Positive buoyancy in eel leptocephali: an adaptation for life in the ocean surface layer (2009, background): “In recent decades, however, the recruitment of northern temperate anguillid species has drastically declined worldwide, and global changes in oceanographic conditions of the ocean surface layer have been hypothesized as contributing to these declines by aVecting larval growth and survival, or their ”
Ecology of Anguilliform Leptocephali: Remarkable Transparent Fish Larvae of the Ocean Surface Layer (2009, background): “…Oscillation index (Knights 2003; Friedland et al. 2007; Kettle et al. 2008), temperature as a proxy for productivity (Bonhommeau et al. 2008a,b), or the likely latitude of frontal features (Kimura et al. 2001; Kimura and Tsukamoto 2006; Friedland et al. 2007) as is discussed in Section 5-5.”
Important questions to progress science and sustainable management of anguillid eels (2021, background): “anguilla glass eel recruitment is negatively correlated with the North Atlantic Oscillation (Arribas et al., 2012; Castonguay, Hodson, Moriarty, et al., 1994; Dekker, 2004; Friedland et al., 2007; Kettle et al., 2008; Knights, 2003; Miller et al., 2016) as well as sea surface temperature (Bonhommeau”
