• Feeding habits and trophic levels of bluefin tuna Thunnus thynnus of different size classes in the Mediterranean Sea (2007, background): “…the eastern Atlantic population (Medina et al., 2002), reaching their Mediterranean spawning grounds inMay, where they stay only until late July (Corriero et al., 2003; Karakulak et al., 2004) while small juveniles are massively present in the Mediterranean from late summer to autumn (Sarà, 1998).”
• Size and age at sexual maturity of female bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus L. 1758) from the Mediterranean Sea (2005, background): “…Florida straits in April–July (Richards, 1976; Montolio and Juarez, 1977; Rivas, 1978; Baglin, 1982), whereas the eastern Atlantic population spawns in the Mediterranean during May–July (Rodrı́guez-Roda, 1967; Susca et al., 2001; Medina et al., 2002; Corriero et al., 2003; Karakulak et al., 2004).”
• Preparation and Administration of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonist (GnRHa) Implants for the Artificial Control of Reproductive Maturation in Captive-Reared Atlantic Bluefin Tuna (Thunnus thynnus thynnus) (2007, methodology): “The GnRHa-implantation experiments in both years were planned for the second half of the natural spawning season of Atlantic bluefin tuna in the Mediterranean Sea (Medina et al., 2002; Corriero et al., 2003; Abascal et al., 2004; Karakulak et al., 2004).”
• Comparative ecology of widely distributed pelagic fish species in the North Atlantic: Implications for modelling climate and fisheries impacts (2014, background): “, 1995; Zaitsev, 2003; MacKenzie and Mariani, 2012) before their disappearance in the late 1980s (Karakulak et al., 2004).”
• Life History and Stock Structure of Atlantic Bluefin Tuna (Thunnus thynnus) (2007, background): “…et al., 2001a, 2001b, 2005; Teo et al., 2007), it is not surprising that T. thynnus begin spawning earlier in the Gulf of Mexico than in the Mediterranean Sea (April versus May) (Baglin, 1982; Clay, 1991; Nishida et al., 1998; Medina et al., 2002; Corriero et al., 2003; Karakulak et al., 2004a).”
