The experiment was conducted at Beaufort Inlet, North Carolina, USA, in March 1996. The inlet is primarily tide-driven and meteorological forcing has a minor influence. Four species of winter-spawning fish were abundant in the samples: Atlantic menhaden, Brevoortia tyrannus; Atlantic croaker, Micropogonias undulatus; spot, Leiostomus xanthurus; and pinfish, Lagodon rhomboides. Across-shore winds significantly affected flow and physico-chemical characteristics of the water. Across-shore winds also positively influenced the larval retention provided larvae did not present a clear tidal rhythm of vertical migration within the water column and that winds pushed in the water during flood tides. The retention of larvae migrating vertically in respect to the direction of the flow was independent of meteorological forcing of the water.}, number={5}, journal={JOURNAL OF THE MARINE BIOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION OF THE UNITED KINGDOM}, author={Joyeux, JC}, year={2001}, month={Oct}, pages={857–868} } @article{aliaume_zerbi_joyeux_miller_2000, title={Growth of juvenile Centropomus undecimalis in a tropical island}, volume={59}, ISSN={["1573-5133"]}, DOI={10.1023/A:1007662611839}, number={3}, journal={ENVIRONMENTAL BIOLOGY OF FISHES}, author={Aliaume, C and Zerbi, A and Joyeux, JC and Miller, JM}, year={2000}, month={Nov}, pages={299–308} } @article{joyeux_1999, title={The abundance of fish larvae in estuaries: Within-tide variability at inlet and immigration}, volume={22}, ISSN={["0160-8347"]}, DOI={10.2307/1353069}, abstractNote={The larvae of winter spawning fishes immigrating through Beaufort Inlet into the Pamlico Sound estuarine system (North Carolina, United States) were passively sampled during 14 flood tides and nine of the following ebb tides. Five taxa were abundant in the catches. Pelagic species were represented by Atlantic menhaden, Brevoortia tyrannus. Nonpelagic taxa were represented by Atlantic croaker, Micropogonias undulatus, spot, Leiostomus xanthurus, pinfish, Lagodon rhomboides, and flatfishes of the genus Paralichthys. The sampling was continuous and the sample duration varied between 4 min and 32 min. The longest samples furnished the most accurate and precise estimates of the mean tidal abundance. Sampling 10 min each hour of the tide was the most efficient protocol for determining the mean tidal abundance. The abundance patterns was shown to differ according to the pelagic or nonpelagic behavior of the larvae. Analyses suggested the nonpelagic taxa rely on astronomical tides and vertical migrations synchronous with the direction of the tide flow to be transported upstream in the estuary. These larvae were not dependent upon the strength of the tide to penetrate the inlet. In contrast, menhaden larvae seemed to rely primarily on strong food tides to enter the estuarine area, probably because the vertical positioning of the species within the water column is not dependent upon the direction of the tide. However, if larvae were present outside of the inlet, strong flood tides indiscriminately brought pelagic and nonpelagic species into the estuary.}, number={4}, journal={ESTUARIES}, author={Joyeux, JC}, year={1999}, month={Dec}, pages={889–904} } @misc{joyeux_ward_1998, title={Constraints on coastal lagoon fisheries}, volume={34}, ISBN={["0-12-026134-0"]}, ISSN={["0065-2881"]}, DOI={10.1016/S0065-2881(08)60211-4}, abstractNote={We have estimated the individual and synergetic effects of geographical, morphometrical, environmental and anthopogenic parameters on the fishery yield of coastal lagoons throughout the world. For this analysis we have relied on published literature and other information obtained directly from researchers and fishery officials, since special global scale sampling was not possible. Lagoons that are exploited through alternative fishery practices had significantly higher yields than the others. The fishery yield was dependent upon a lagoon’s geographical location and morphometry. The significant environmental and anthropogenic factors determining the yield were the exchanges of water between lagoons and the ocean, the physico-chemical properties of the water, the extent of aquatic vegetation, and the fishing pressure. Overall, the results show the single influence of freshwater input to be negligible while the influence of oceanic tide exercised through the inlets was significant. Fishery yield appeared to be correlated with the mean annual concentration of nitrites. Submerged and emerged vegetation were good indicators for fishery productivity. The single most influential factor of all was the fishing pressure. Data collected for 292 fished lagoons are given in appendix tables and include annual fishery yield; water area; mean and maximum depth; watershed area; annual freshwater inputs; inlet(s) width; height of ocean tide; minimum and maximum temperatures and salinities; mean and maximum concentrations of nitrite, nitrate, and orthophosphate; areas of immersed and emergent vegetation; and number of fishermen.}, journal={ADVANCES IN MARINE BIOLOGY, VOL 34}, author={Joyeux, JC and Ward, AB}, year={1998}, pages={73–199} } @article{joyeux_1998, title={Spatial and temporal entry patterns of fish larvae into North Carolina estuaries: Comparisons among one pelagic and two demersal species}, volume={47}, ISSN={["0272-7714"]}, DOI={10.1006/ecss.1998.0378}, abstractNote={Abstract A sampling programme targeting larvae of winter spawning fishes immigrating from the oceanic domain into the Pamlico-Albemarle Sounds system (NC, U.S.A.) was performed at the four major inlets of the lagoon system. Sampling yielded abundant catches of three species, a Clupeid (Atlantic menhaden,Brevoortia tyrannus) and two Sciaenids (Atlantic croaker,Micropogonias undulatusand spot,Leiostomus xanthurus). In this article, the author documents the differences in the mechanisms developed for estuarine recruitment among the three species. Abundance at the tidal inlets was dependent upon numerous factors, such as sampling month, inlet, luminosity, tide flow direction and depth. The spatial and temporal positioning of the larvae differed among the species and affected their capabilities to be transported through the inlets. More specifically, spot and croaker migrated vertically within the water column in accordance with the direction of the water flow. Sciaenids minimized the outwelling effects of ebb tides by migrating into the slowest ebbing currents, near the bottom. Menhaden did not rely on vertical migrations for estuarine transport and retention. For this species, landward transport is provided either when dusk and flood onset are coincident or through non-tidal flows developing under meteorological forcing. The Sciaenids were less, or not, dependent upon these conditions. In one inlet, the retention was dependent upon the strength of the flooding and ebbing flows. In this case, the retention of the pelagic species was lower than the retention of demersal species.}, number={6}, journal={ESTUARINE COASTAL AND SHELF SCIENCE}, author={Joyeux, JC}, year={1998}, month={Dec}, pages={731–752} }
