Seascape ecology of coastal biogenic habitats: advances, gaps, and challenges (2011, background): “For instance, juvenile cod (Gadus morhua) forage for zooplankton and invertebrates over the unvegetated matrix, and reduce their own predation risk by using the structure provided by patchy vegetation (Laurel et al. 2003, Thistle et al. 2010).”
Review of nekton patterns and ecological processes in seagrass landscapes (2006, methodology): “Laurel et al. (2003a) showed that although there were more piscivores in larger patches, predation rates on youngof-the-year cod were higher in smaller patches, presumably because of increased predator efficiency in smaller patches.”
