Predatory fish invaders: Insights from Indo-Pacific lionfish in the western Atlantic and Caribbean (2013, background): “(2009) suggested that lionfish spread has in fact occurred faster than predicted by another circulation model (Cowen et al., 2006).”
Mitochondrial control region sequence analyses indicate dispersal from the US East Coast as the source of the invasive Indo-Pacific lionfish Pterois volitans in the Bahamas (2009, methodology): “Likewise, recent models of connectivity between damselWsh populations suggest little exchange between southeast Florida and the Bahamas (Cowen et al. 2006), and drifters released from the lower Florida Keys over approximately a”
Genetic discontinuity among regional populations of Lophelia pertusa in the North Atlantic Ocean (2011, positive): “However, molecular investigations have shown that numerous marine species are more spatially structured than would be predicted based on life history characteristics or geographic distributions (Barber et al. 2000; Knowlton 2000; Warner and Cowen 2002; Swearer et al. 2002; Taylor and Hellberg 2003; ”
Additive effects of climate change on connectivity between marine protected areas and larval supply to fished areas (2015, background): “Most important for marine fish are larval mortality, larval behaviour, reproductive output, swimming ability and orientation ability (Cowen et al., 2006; Leis, 2007; Munday et al., 2009a; Ayata et al., 2010; Treml et al., 2012).”
Paradigm shifts in marine fisheries genetics: ugly hypotheses slain by beautiful facts (2008, background): “Topics such as connectivity among marine populations (Cowen et al. 2006; Treml et al. 2008), the spatial and temporal scale of population differentiation (Jørgensen et al.”
Physical and biological controls on larval dispersal and connectivity in a highly energetic shelf sea (2013, methodology): “Several studies (Cowen et al. 2006; North et al. 2008; Ayata et al. 2010) have advanced this field considerably through their modeling approach of integrat- ing the range of spatial and temporal variation in oceanographic conditions with different types of larval behavior.”
Behaviour as input for modelling dispersal of fish larvae: behaviour, biogeography, hydrodynamics, ontogeny, physiology and phylogeny meet hydrography (2007, background): “For example, Cowen et al. (2006) recognised this and specified that they were concerned with demographic connectivity, which they defined as recruitment necessary to replace mortality.”
A bio‐oceanographic filter to larval dispersal in a reef‐building coral (2006, background): “Evidence has been mounting that larval dispersal of marine organisms in general, and within the Caribbean basin in particular, is limited (Swearer et al. 2002; Taylor and Hellberg 2003; Cowen et al. 2006).”
Estimating dispersal distance in the deep sea: challenges and applications to marine reserves (2015, background): “…scales is presently not possible, numerical models that incorporate both physical dynamics and biological traits are increasingly being used to quantify larval transport and assess its role in regulating population connectivity (e.g., Cowen et al., 2006; Siegel et al., 2008; Nolasco et al., 2013).”
Spatial dynamics of the Nassau grouper Epinephelus striatus in a Caribbean atoll (2007, background): “Interestingly, the movements reported here and in previous studies are across spatial scales similar to those involved in the dispersal of reef fish larvae (on the order of 50 to 100 km; Cowen et al. 2006).”
Multiple disturbances and the global degradation of coral reefs: are reef fishes at risk or resilient? (2006, background): “The supply of both coral and fish recruits are expected to be diminished, reducing the probability of rapid reef recovery, especially for geographically isolated reef systems (Cowen et al., 2006).”
Climate change and the future for coral reef fishes (2008, background): “First, local and meso-scale currents often play an important role in the dispersal patterns of larval fishes (James et al. 2002; Suthers et al. 2004; Sponaugle et al. 2005; Cowen et al. 2006).”
Larval retention and connectivity among populations of corals and reef fishes: history, advances and challenges (2009, background): “For species with dispersive larvae, there is increasing evidence for significant selfrecruitment (Jones et al. 2005, Cowen et al. 2006; Bode et al. 2006; Almany et al. 2007).”
