Modelling larval fish navigation: the way forward (2014, background): “Therefore, tropical larvae spend a high proportion of their pelagic 122 life as effective swimmers (Fisher, 2005).”
Habitat associations of juvenile versus adult butterflyfishes (2008, background): “Settlement strategies may vary among species depending upon their larval swimming ability (Fisher 2005), ontogenetic shifts in resource requirements (Harmelin-Vivien 1989), competitive ability (Öhman et al. 1998), and/or predation risk (Almany 2004).”
Swimming speed performance in coral reef fishes: field validations reveal distinct functional groups (2007, background): “swimming speed (Ucrit) have received considerable attention in recent years, with a multitude of studies using Ucrit estimates to examine the locomotor capabilities of both larval and adult fishes (e.g., Hartwell and Otto 1991; Lowe 1996; Myrick and Cech 2000; Fisher 2005).”
The relationship between population genetic structure and pelagic larval duration in coral reef fishes on the Great Barrier Reef (2006, background): “For example, larval swimming ability, a potentially important determinant of dispersal distance varies considerably among reef-fish families (Stobutzki 1998; Leis 2002; Fisher 2005 ).”
Latitudinal shifts in coral reef fishes: why some species do and others do not shift (2014, background): “Fisheries Oceanography 19, 42–62. Stevens, G.C. (1989) The latitudinal gradients in geo-”
Ontogeny of behaviour in larvae of marine demersal fishes (2010, unknown): “…to the data summarised above that cover a substantial portion (but not all) of the pelagic larval phase, information on Ucrit at hatching is available for a few coralreef fishes (six pomacentrids, two apogonids, one blenniid and one acanthurid, only the last of which has pelagic eggs; Fisher 2005).”
Critical swimming speeds of late-stage coral reef fish larvae: variation within species, among species and between locations (2005, background): “Some U-crit data have been recently presented at the family level ( Fisher 2005 ), facilitating comparisons of abilities at higher taxonomic levels.”
Ecology of Anguilliform Leptocephali: Remarkable Transparent Fish Larvae of the Ocean Surface Layer (2009, background): “4 2009 Critical swimming speed is a useful index of swimming ability obtained by swimming fish at increasing speed intervals until they reach exhaustion (Fisher 2005; Fisher et al. 2005).”
