- Description in English
- The importance of salt mash creeks as a nursery for postlarval Common Shrimp was investigated by:
- comparing stomach fullness of incoming and outgoing postlarvae
- examining stomach contents of shrimp predators, Seabass and Common Gobies, for shrimp postlarvae to assess predation pressure in the marsh-creeks.
- determining the duration of their stay through the comparison of the observed and the expected size-frequency distribution
