Differential larval growth strategies and trophodynamics of larval Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) from two discrete spawning grounds

Differential larval growth strategies and trophodynamics of larval Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) from two discrete spawning grounds

Atlantic bluefin tuna (ABT), Thunnus thynnus, is a globally important fishery resource. This oceanic top predator undertakes long-distance migrations from its nutrient-rich feeding grounds in the north Atlantic to oligotrophic spawning grounds. Larvae are born mainly in the corresponding ecosystems...
