Life cycle ecophysiology of small pelagic fish and climate-driven changes in populations (2013, background): “The different spawning temperatures for European sardine and European anchovy are reflected in differences in the scheduling of spawning in the Mediterranean Sea where the latter spawns in summer and the former in winter (Olivar et al., 2001).”
Oceanographic habitat, growth and mortality of larval anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) in the northern Aegean Sea (eastern Mediterranean) (2007, background): “In stratified Mediterranean waters, adult anchovies feed during the day below the thermocline (Tudela and Palomera 1995), so they are not likely to encounter their larvae, which are distributed above this (Palomera 1991; Olivar et al. 2001; Coombs et al. 2003).”
Identifying essential fish habitat for small pelagic species in Spanish Mediterranean waters (2008, background): “The Iberian shelf provides important spawning grounds for anchovy and sardine (Garci ´a & Palomera, 1996; Olivar et al., 2001 ).”
Planktonic cnidarian distribution and feeding of Pelagia noctiluca in the NW Mediterranean Sea (2010, background): “Anchovy larvae, the most abundant species during spring–summer, are located around 50 m depth during the day and migrate to the surface at night (Olivar et al., 2001; Sabatés et al., 2008).”
