Population dynamics of an estuarine-dependent fish, the spot ( Leiostomus xanthurus), along a tidal creek- seagrass meadow coenocline. Weinstein, M. P. Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 1983.
doi  abstract   bibtex   
The population was resident in the creek for up to 182 d with the average individual present for 91 d. When this population turnover rate was compared to the total population decay rate (marked plus unmarked fish), the exchange between habitats (immigration/emigration) accounted for c.26% of the total decay rate, with the remainder attributed to natural mortality. The estimated production in this population was 21.8 kcal (91 342 J) m-2 d-1, \textgreater6 times greater than previously reported values for this species for all size classes over the entire growing season.-from Author
