Fish Otoliths Contain Clues to Larval Distribution Mystery How do you track a moving target? It depends on the size of the target. WHOI fish ecologist Simon Thorrold and research associate Jennifer FitzGerald are taking aim at a very small target: larval Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua). Like most marine fish, cod have a pelagic larval phase,…
