Summary

DOI: doi:10.3354

Description

In a second paper, the nursery role of salt marshes was examined for transient nekton by global literature for data on density, growth, and survival of juvenile fishes and decapod crustaceans in marsh areas. We analyzed density data from 32 studies conducted world-wide using a meta-analysis to test hypotheses. Based on fish density, habitat types could be ranked from highest to lowest as: seagrass > vegetated marsh edge, nonvegetated marsh, open water, macroalgae, oyster reefs > vegetated inner marsh. However, patterns of habitat use varied among the various fishes and decapod crustaceans represented.

Title: Global Meta-analysis Estuarine Nekton
Publication Date: 2003-01-16
Abstract:

In a second paper, the nursery role of salt marshes was examined for transient nekton by global literature for data on density, growth, and survival of juvenile fishes and decapod crustaceans in marsh areas. We analyzed density data from 32 studies conducted world-wide using a meta-analysis to test hypotheses. Based on fish density, habitat types could be ranked from highest to lowest as: seagrass > vegetated marsh edge, nonvegetated marsh, open water, macroalgae, oyster reefs > vegetated inner marsh. However, patterns of habitat use varied among the various fishes and decapod crustaceans represented.
