Seascape connectivity and the influence of predation risk on the movement of fishes inhabiting a back‐reef ecosystem
Abstract The mangrove–seagrass–patch reef (MSP) ecosystem serves as the principal back‐reef nursery for many reef fishes in the Caribbean, but the functional roles of habitats that form this seascape remain unclear. We assessed ecosystem and trophic connectivity of two common reef fishes (schoolmast...
