Larval Size and Recruitment Mechanisms in Fishes: Toward a Conceptual Framework
Reads0

TLDR
A large number of mechanisms controlling recruitment in fishes are unknown and the literature on recruitment mechanisms is large and growing rapidly, but it is unclear how these mechanisms are influenced by environmental influences.Abstract:
Understanding the mechanisms controlling recruitment in fishes is a major problem in fisheries science. Although the literature on recruitment mechanisms is large and growing rapidly, it is primari...read more

Temperature and Organism Size—A Biological Law for Ectotherms?
TL;DR: In this paper, a tool changer is disclosed for automatically removing a working tool after having been used from the spindle of a machine tool such as a vertical milling machine, transferring the used working tool to a rack which stores a plurality of working tools.

Fatty acid trophic markers in the pelagic marine environment.
TL;DR: A conceptual model of the spatial and temporal dominance of group-specific primary producers, and hence the basic fatty acid patterns available to higher trophic levels is presented and is based on stratification.

Egg quality in fish: what makes a good egg?
TL;DR: The genetic mechanisms underpinning oocyte and embryo growth and development are a priority for research and the products synthesized in ovoand the mechanisms controlling their expression are likely to play a central role in determining egg quality.

Compensatory growth in fishes: a response to growth depression
TL;DR: Ali, M., Nicieza, A., Wootton, R. J. et al. as discussed by the authors have shown that compensatory growth in fishes is a response to growth depression.

Predator size - prey size relationships of marine fish predators: interspecific variation and effects of ontogeny and body size on trophic-niche breadth
TL;DR: Examination of predator size - prey size relationships for 18 species of marine fish predators from continental shelf waters off the northeast US coast demonstrated that the range of prey sizes eaten expanded with increasing predator body size for each of the marine predators examined, leading to asymmetric predator size- prey size distribu- tions.
