• A review of glass eel migratory behaviour, sampling techniques and abundance estimates in estuaries: implications for assessing recruitment, local production and exploitation (2014, background): “Upon nearing coastal regions, the willow leaf-shaped, translucent leptocephali metamorphose into glass eels and colonise coastal, estuarine and freshwater habitats (van Ginneken and Maes 2005).”
• Decreasing eel stocks: survival of the fattest? (2009, methodology): “…to swim at least 7500 km from Stockholm to the Sargasso Sea whereas eels from the River Tagus leaving Lisbon have to swim 5000 km to reach their spawning ground (distances calculated to Sargasso Sea at location 61 00 ¢W and 26 30 ¢N, the centre of the area described in van Ginneken & Maes (2005)).”
• Synergistic patterns of threat and the challenges facing global anguillid eel conservation (2015, background): “Their life-history is further complicated by multiple life stages, semelpary, and panmixia—their pelagic spawning areas are far from their growth habitats1 (Aida et al., 2003; van Ginneken and Maes, 2005).”
• Fluctuations in European eel (Anguilla anguilla) recruitment resulting from environmental changes in the Sargasso Sea (2007, methodology): “Be ause migration duration of larvae is not learly established and arouses ontroversy(van Ginneken and Maes, 2005), the orrelation between re ruitment and environmental time-series was systemati ally tested onsidering a time-lag of +1, +2 or +3 year(s).”
• The duration of migration of Atlantic Anguilla larvae (2010, background): “Recent reviews of Lecomte-Finiger (2003), Van Ginneken and Maes (2005) and McCleave (2008) provide interesting synthesis, but none of them focuses on the duration of the migration of eel larvae, although this is one of the most critical features of the oceanic larval stage.”
