Transects of CTD (to 1000 m) and zooplankton stations 200 m in 50 strata) were made across an anticyclonic eddy the southern Gulf California during October 2007 to determine its influence upon three-dimensional distribution larval fish assemblages. The was ∼90 km diameter ∼70 deep. A assemblage, representing a mix oceanic coastal species, defined mainly from depth surface. Mesopelagic such as Vinciguerria lucetia, dominant. Coastal reef (Diplectrum sp.) pelagic (Auxis spp.) species found...

Effects of geostrophic kinetic energy flux on the three-dimensional distribution fish larvae mesopelagic species (Vinciguerria lucetia, Diogenichthys laternatus, Benthosema panamense and Triphoturus mexicanus) in southern Gulf California during summer fall seasons stronger stratification were analyzed. The greatest larval abundance was found at sampling stations energy-poor areas (<7.5 J/m3), where dominant tended to be stratified. Larvae V. lucetia (average 318 larvae/10m2) B. (174 mostly...

We examined the effect of a mesoscale cyclonic eddy on three-dimensional distribution Vinciguerria lucetia and Diogenichthys laternatus in southern Gulf California during July 2010.CTD data zooplankton samples collected with closing-opening net (505 µm), were obtained 2 transects across eddy, transect outside structure.In later thermocline depth was at ~40 m where larvae V. dominated.Opposite to distribution, D. dominant species deepest strata.In area influenced by (~350 ~60 km diameter),...
