Dimethyl Sulfide is a Chemical Attractant for Reef Fish Larvae
Abstract Transport of coral reef fish larvae is driven by advection in ocean currents and larval swimming. However, for swimming to be advantageous, larvae must use external stimuli as guides. One potential stimulus is “odor” emanating from settlement sites (e.g., coral reefs), signaling the upstrea...
