Journal ArticleDOI
Scaling of Connectivity in Marine Populations
TL;DR: Using a high-resolution biophysical model for the Caribbean region, it is reported that typical larval dispersal distances are on the scale of only 10 to 100 kilometers for a variety of reef fish species and shows the importance of the early onset of active larval movement mediating the dispersal potential.
Journal ArticleDOI
Connectivity of marine populations: open or closed?
TL;DR: Eulerian and Lagrangian flow models were used and the alternative process of larval retention near local populations is shown to exist and may be of great importance in the maintenance of marine population structure and management of coastal marine resources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trophic cascade facilitates coral recruitment in a marine reserve

TL;DR: It is shown that the impacts of reserves extend beyond trophic cascades and enhance the process of coral recruitment, and fish grazing was strongly negatively correlated with macroalgal cover and resulted in a 2-fold increase in the density of coral recruits within a Bahamian reef system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct evidence of a biophysical retention mechanism for coral reef fish larvae
Claire B. Paris,Robert K. Cowen +1 more
TL;DR: Empirical evidence is provided for larval retention of coral reef fishes and the role of active behavior in larval transport is stressed, implying that pelagic processes can explain recruitment rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Connectivity and resilience of coral reef metapopulations in marine protected areas: matching empirical efforts to predictive needs.
L. W. Botsford,J. W. White,Mary Alice Coffroth,Claire B. Paris,Serge Planes,T. L. Shearer,Simon R. Thorrold,Geoffrey P. Jones +7 more
TL;DR: To make rapid progress in understanding the scales and patterns of connectivity, greater communication between empiricists and population modelers will be need to track and assimilate evolving empirical results.
