Impact of silvering stage, age, body size and condition on reproductive potential of the European eel (2006, positive): “…for them to reach the European coast; variations in the recruitment of eel larvae have also been correlated to changes in ocean productivity and hence a decrease in food for leptocephalus larvae (Castonguay et al. 1994, Desaunay & Guerault 1997, McCleave et al. 1998, Feunteun 2002, Knights 2003).”
Important questions to progress science and sustainable management of anguillid eels (2021, background): “…Pacific eel (A. bicolor spp.) spawning west of Sumatra (Jespersen, 1942), confirmed by Arai et al., (1999) and northeast of Madagascar (Robinet & Feunteun, 2002a), while the Indonesian longfinned eel (A. borneensis) and A. celebesensis spawn locally in the Indonesian Seas (Aoyama, 2009; Aoyama…”
Migration pattern of silver eel (Anguilla anguilla, L.) in an obstructed river system (2008, background): “…& Dekker 1997), a better understanding of the eel migratory dynamics is required both at local and continental levels so that means of ensuring maximum escape of silver eel from each catchment can be devised (Feunteun 2002; Baisez & Laffaille 2005; Laffaille et al. 2006; Acou et al. in press).”
Oceanic changes in the Sargasso Sea and declines in recruitment of the European eel (2007, background): “These declines may also be related to reductions in the size of the spawning population of each species (Dekker, 2003, 2004), driven by anthropogenic factors such as habitat loss, pollution, parasite introductions, and overfishing (Haro et al., 2000; Feunteun, 2002).”
Fluctuations in European eel (Anguilla anguilla) recruitment resulting from environmental changes in the Sargasso Sea (2007, background): “A ombination of fa tors are invoked to explain eel sto k de line, in luding over shing (Dekker, 2003b), anthropogeni impa ts su h as pollution (Amiard-Triquet et al., 1988; Gony et al., 1988; Feunteun, 2002; M Cleave, 2001), habitat loss (Feunteun, 2002), parasites (Aguilar et al.”
Just go with the flow? Route selection and mortality during downstream migration of silver eels in relation to river discharge (2007, background): “Many candidate factors affecting different life stages have been proposed, but the relative contribution of each to this decline remains unclear (Feunteun, 2002; Wirth and Bernatchez, 2003; Dekker, 2004).”
