Impact of 21st century climate change on the Baltic Sea fish community and fisheries (2007, background): “Herring and sprat have similar diets during much of their ontogeny (Möllmann & Köster, 1999; Casini et al., 2004).”
Spatial and temporal density dependence regulates the condition of central Baltic Sea clupeids: compelling evidence using an extensive international acoustic survey (2011, unknown): “The large diet overlap between sprat and herring (Casini et al. 2004; Möllmann et al. 2004) suggests the existence of both intra- and inter-specific food competition.”
Inter‐annual variation in herring, Clupea harengus, and sprat, Sprattus sprattus, condition in the central Baltic Sea: what gives the tune? (2006, background): “the main prey for sprat together with P elongatus (Mdllmann and Koster 1999, 2002, Casini et al. 2004). In a more recent paper, Mdllmann et al. (2005) hypothesized a density-dependent regulation of sprat growth but without furnishing evidence of the possible mechanisms involved.”
Linking fisheries, trophic interactions and climate: threshold dynamics drive herring Clupea harengus growth in the central Baltic Sea (2010, background): “Spring and sum- mer are the main feeding seasons for both herring and sprat in the central Baltic Sea (e.g. Szypu8a et al. 1997), and spring is also the main reproduction period for the copepod Pseudocalanus spp., one of the main prey for both fish species (Möllmann et al. 2003, Casini et al. 2004).”
