The seascape nursery: a novel spatial approach to identify and manage nurseries for coastal marine fauna (2015, unknown): “The spatial characteristics of habitat patches play an important role in structuring associated animal communities, but typically are not considered in assessments of nursery value, leaving a critical knowledge and conservation gap (Beck et al. 2001; Adams et al. 2006; Bostr€ om et al. 2011).”
Progression of invasive lionfish in seagrass, mangrove and reef habitats. (2012, background): “…in this study (i.e. mangroves, seagrass, and sheltered shallow reefs) by fishes and invertebrates at early stages before moving to deeper reef areas when larger (Nagelkerken 2000, Adams et al. 2006) has been proposed to increase growth rates through greater access to food (Beck et al. 2001).”
Are coastal habitats important nurseries? A meta‐analysis (2019, background): “…Haemulidae, Lutjanidae, and Serranidae, which utilize different habitats throughout their juvenile development (e.g., seagrass → mangroves → coral reef) or even different subhabitats within those habitats (e.g., coral or rubble embedded within seagrass beds; reviewed in Adams et al., 2006).”
Site fidelity and movement patterns of invasive lionfish, Pterois spp., in a Florida estuary (2012, background): “, coral reefs) (Adams et al., 2006; de la Moriniere et al., 2002; Gillanders et al., 2003; Grol et al., 2011; Mumby et al., 2004; Verweij et al., 2007), it is not presently known how lionfish use different habitats through ontogeny.”
Habitat associations of juvenile versus adult butterflyfishes (2008, background): “…six distinct reef habitats were selected to encompass gradients of exposure and coral cover, and also include habitats (especially back-reefs, shallow water patch reefs, and lagoons) commonly used as distinct juvenile habitats by many coral reef fishes (Adams and Ebersole 2002; Adams et al. 2006).”
Recent invasion of a Florida (USA) estuarine system by lionfish Pterois volitans / P. miles. (2011, background): “…systems that provide some of the most valued ecosystem services at a global scale (Costanza et al. 1997, Granek et al. 2010), including habitat for numerous commercially, recreationally, and ecologically important species (Beck et al. 2001, Adams et al. 2006, Courrat et al. 2009, Jud et al. 2011).”
Characterizing trophic ecology of generalist consumers: a case study of the invasive lionfish in The Bahamas (2012, background): “Initial experiments suggest that lionfish may have important impacts on prey populations (Albins & Hixon 2008), and such experiments will continue to be an essential component of understanding the long-term changes that lionfish might induce in the invaded range.”
The habitat function of mangroves for terrestrial and marine fauna: a review (2008, background): “, 2005), making the individual contribution of mangroves difficult to determine (Adams et al., 2006).”
