• The role of seagrass meadows, mangrove forests, salt marshes and reed beds as nursery areas and food sources for fishes in estuaries (2017, background): “A study inMoreton Bay (Australia) determined that more fish species used mangroves with nearby continuous seagrass meadows, than mangroves with nearby patchy seagrass beds or unvegetated sand flats (Pittman et al. 2004).”
• Primacy of seascape connectivity effects in structuring coral reef fish assemblages (2012, background): “The focus of other studies in the Pacific, however, has been on assemblages in the seagrass (e.g. Jelbart et al. 2007, Unsworth et al. 2008) and mangrove (e.g. Pittman et al. 2004, Payne & Gillanders 2009) habitats themselves.”
• Mangroves as fish habitat: 50 Years of field studies (2006, background): “…the study of mangrove fishes beyond pattern recognition towards more ecologically meaningful landscape-scale approaches, including habitat connectivity, suitability, and the contribution of mangrove habitats in support of adult fish populations (e.g. Pittman et al. 2004, Sheaves 2005, Mumby 2006).”
• Using Lidar Bathymetry and Boosted Regression Trees to Predict the Diversity and Abundance of Fish and Corals (2009, background): “Each distinct habitat type exhibits highly variable withinpatch structural heterogeneity at a range of spatial scales (Hatcher, 1997; Pittman, McAlpine, and Pittman, 2004; Pittman et al., 2007a).”
• Seascape ecology of coastal biogenic habitats: advances, gaps, and challenges (2011, background): “In Queensland, Australia, Meynecke et al. (2008) found that structural connectivity of the seascape was the single most influential variable for fisheries.”
• Linking temperate demersal fish species to habitat: scales, patterns and future directions (2013, background): “An alternative but more costly approach, the use of multiscale, hierarchical surveys is likely to prove successful in elucidating the role of spatial scale in fish distribution (Pittman et al. 2004; Anderson and Yoklavich 2007; Anderson et al. 2009; Monk et al. 2011).”
• Reef fish and habitat relationships in a Caribbean seascape: the importance of reef context (2007, background): “…diversity has been attributed to the presence of seagrass (Quinn and Ogden 1984; Robblee and Zeiman 1984; Khalaf and Kochzius 2002; GroberDunsmore et al. 2004; Pittman et al. 2004), algal beds (Rossier and Kulbicki 2000) and mangroves (Birkeland 1985; Thollot 1992) in post hoc correlative analyses.”
• Influence of habitat configuration on connectivity between fish assemblages of Caribbean seagrass beds, mangroves and coral reefs (2007, background): “…reef) per se, but is also likely to be influenced by the way the various habitat types are arranged within the coastal landscape, the so-called ‘habitat configuration’ (Garcia-Charton & Perez-Ruzafa 1999, Beets et al. 2003, Serafy et al. 2003, Grober-Dunsmore et al. 2004, Pittman et al. 2004).”
• The habitat function of mangroves for terrestrial and marine fauna: a review (2008, background): “However, their relative significance, in terms of dependency and utilisation of tropical and subtropical mangroves by fishes, will vary depending upon the fishes and the nature of each system and its mangroves (Pittman et al., 2004; Sheridan and Hays, 2003; Lugendo et al., 2006).”
• Diel movements of fishes linked to benthic seascape structure in a Caribbean coral reef ecosystem (2011, methodology): “…of a single thematic resolution when mapping seascapes for ecological studies, we used a hierarchical scheme to allow for selection of 2 levels of thematic resolution (i.e. a detailed and a coarse benthic habitat map) to quantify seascape structure (Pittman et al. 2004, Kendall & Miller 2008).”
