Larval and juvenile Longfin Smelt diets as a function of fish size and prey density in the San Francisco Estuary

Larval and juvenile Longfin Smelt diets as a function of fish size and prey density in the San Francisco Estuary

The density and quality of zooplankton prey affect the feeding success of larval and juvenile fishes and thus can drive growth, survival, and recruitment. As part of a larger effort investigating potential causes of a pelagic fish decline, we examined regional feeding success (food presence/absence,...
