Abstract
To study the population dynamics of young-of-the-year spot (Leiostomus xanthurus) I released 6981 marked fish midway up the tidal creek portion of a small (−2∙d−1. This figure is over six times greater than previously reported values for this species for all size classes over the entire growing season.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
