Description
Summary:<qd> Skjæraasen, J. E., Meager, J. J., Karlsen, Ø., Hutchings, J. A., and Fernö, A. 2011. Extreme spawning-site fidelity in Atlantic cod. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 68: 1472–1477. </qd>Based on a 3-year mark-recapture study, evidence is provided of spawning-site fidelity in Atlantic cod ( Gadus morhua ) at a scale (<1 km) smaller than documented previously. Coastal regions where barriers to dispersal exist may allow for local population dynamics and adaptation to develop in broadcast-spawning marine fish at extremely fine spatial scales.
