TLDR
In rearing studies on 6- to 22-d-old larval striped bass, Morone saxatilis, several back-calculation methods to known-growth larvae applied, a growth effect occurred on otolith diameter – standard length relationships, where slower growing larvae had relatively larger otoliths.Abstract:

Can otolith microchemistry chart patterns of migration and habitat utilization in anadromous fishes
TL;DR: Verification studies support the use of otolith microchemistry to measure migratory schedules and habitat utilization patterns in anadromous striped bass populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
First-year recruitment of largemouth bass: the interdependency of early life stages
TL;DR: The results indeed suggest that 1st-yr re- cruitment of largemouth bass in southern systems is governed by several functionally dependent critical events, and it is suggested that future recruitment studies should adopt a more synthetic approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of the growth regulation processes of otolith daily increment formation
TL;DR: Environmental conditions, transmitted through the physiology of fish, affect the otolith growth rate (increment width) but increment periodicity may be disrupted only in extreme cases of physiological stress.

Evidence of growth-selective predation on larval Japanese anchovy Engraulis japonicus in Sagami Bay
TL;DR: The ' growth-selec- tive predation' hypothesis (mechanism), which is theoretically independent of and synergistic with the existing hypotheses based on size and time under the general 'growth-mortality' concept for the survival process during the early life history of marine pelagic fish, is proposed.

Selective mortality during the larval-juvenile transition in two coral reef fishes
Steven P. Searcy,Su Sponaugle +1 more
TL;DR: Comparisons of otolith-derived traits exhibited by younger recruits (initial group) to those exhibited by older juveniles (survivor group) revealed that there was a difference in otolith growth during settlement from pelagic larvae to benthic or demersal juveniles.

Microstructure of Fish Otoliths
TL;DR: Otolith microstructure examination has found an increasing number of applications in recent years, but few workers have critically assessed the assumptions upon which the age and growth of the structure is based.

Larval Size and Recruitment Mechanisms in Fishes: Toward a Conceptual Framework
TL;DR: 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.

A Review of Size Dependant Survival During Pre-recruit Stages of Fishes in Relation to Recruitment
TL;DR: The hypothesis that survival is a direct function of growth provides a rational theoretical framework for recruitment research and is suggested as a basis for future work.

Uncoupling of Somatic and Otolith Growth Rates in Arctic Char (Salvelinus alpinus) as an Effect of Differences in Temperature Response
TL;DR: It was found that otolith growth rate expressed as daily increase in weighings in Arctic char fry fed maximum rations was found, with exponential relationships between otolith weight and fish wet weight showing exponential relationships.

Somatic Growth Effects on the Otolith–Fish Size Relationship in Young Pond-reared Striped Bass, Morone saxatilis
David H. Secor,John Mark Dean +1 more
TL;DR: Somatic growth rate of pond-reared larval and juvenile striped bass, Morone saxatilis, influenced the relationship between otolith size and fish size, and slower growing groups of individuals had large sizes.
