Atlantic haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) larvae have a magnetic compass that guides their orientation
Cresci, Alessandro; Paris, Claire B.; Foretich, Matthew A.; Durif, Caroline; Shema, Steven; O'Brien, James E.; Vikebø, Frode Bendiksen; Skiftesvik, Anne Berit; Browman, Howard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Atlantic haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus) is a commercially important species of gadoid fish. In the North Sea, their main spawning areas are located close to the northern continental slope. Eggs and larvae drift with ... -
A comprehensive hypothesis on the migration of European glass eels (Anguilla anguilla)
Cresci, Alessandro (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The European eel (Anguilla anguilla) is a catadromous fish that spawns in the Sargasso Sea. As larvae, eels cross the Atlantic Ocean and reach the continental slope of Europe, where they metamorphose into post‐larval glass ... -
Glass eels (Anguilla anguilla) have a magnetic compass linked to the tidal cycle
Cresci, Alessandro; Paris, Claire B.; Durif, Caroline; Shema, Steven; Bjelland, Reidun Marie; Skiftesvik, Anne Berit; Browman, Howard (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The European eel (Anguilla anguilla) has one of the longest migrations in the animal kingdom. It crosses the Atlantic Ocean twice during its life history, migrating between the spawning area in the Sargasso Sea and Europe, ... -
Glass eels (Anguilla anguilla) imprint the magnetic direction of tidal currents from their juvenile estuaries
Cresci, Alessandro; Durif, Caroline; Paris, Claire B.; Shema, Steven D.; Skiftesvik, Anne Berit; Browman, Howard (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The European eel (Anguilla anguilla) hatches in the Sargasso Sea and migrates to European and North African freshwater. As glass eels, they reach estuaries where they become pigmented. Glass eels use a tidal phase-dependent ... -
Goldsinny wrasse (Ctenolabrus rupestris) have a sex-dependent magnetic compass for maintaining site fidelity
Cresci, Alessandro; Larsen, Torkel; Halvorsen, Kim Aleksander Tallaksen; Durif, Caroline; Bjelland, Reidun Marie; Browman, Howard; Skiftesvik, Anne Berit (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The goldsinny wrasse (Ctenolabrus rupestris) is a commercially important fish that inhabits coastal areas across the eastern Atlantic. This species moves from a shallow home territory along the coast into deeper waters in ... -
The lunar compass of European glass eels (Anguilla anguilla) increases the probability that they recruit to North Sea coasts
Cresci, Alessandro; Sandvik, Anne Dagrun; Sævik, Pål Næverlid; Ådlandsvik, Bjørn; Olascoaga, Maria Josefina; Miron, Philippe; Durif, Caroline; Skiftesvik, Anne Berit; Browman, Howard; Vikebø, Frode Bendiksen (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The European eel hatches in the Sargasso Sea and migrates across the Atlantic Ocean toward Europe. At the continental shelf, larvae metamorphose into glass eels and then recruit to coastal habitats and estuaries. Among ... -
Movement patterns of temperate wrasses (Labridae) within a small marine protected area
Halvorsen, Kim Aleksander Tallaksen; Larsen, Torkel; Browman, Howard; Durif, Caroline; Aasen, Nicolai; Vøllestad, Leif Asbjørn; Cresci, Alessandro; Sørdalen, Tonje Knutsen; Bjelland, Reidun Marie; Skiftesvik, Anne Berit (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The movement patterns of three commercially important wrasse (Labridae) species inside a small marine protected area (~ 0.15 km2) on the west coast of Norway were analysed over a period of 21 months. The mean distance ... -

Orientation behavior and swimming speed of Atlantic herring larvae (Clupea harengus) in situ and in laboratory exposures to rotated artificial magnetic fields
Cresci, Alessandro; Allan, Bridie Jean Marie; Shema, Steven D.; Skiftesvik, Anne Berit; Browman, Howard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020) -
The relationship between the moon cycle and the orientation of glass eels (Anguilla anguilla) at sea
Cresci, Alessandro; Durif, Caroline; Paris, Claire B.; Thompson, Cameron; Shema, Steven; Skiftesvik, Anne Berit; Browman, Howard (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Links between the lunar cycle and the life cycle (migration patterns, locomotor activity, pulses in recruitment) of the European eel (Anguilla anguilla) are well documented. In this study, we hypothesized that the orientation ... -
A unifying hypothesis for the spawning migrations of temperate anguillid eels
Durif, Caroline; Stockhausen, Hagen; Skiftesvik, Anne Berit; Cresci, Alessandro; Nyqvist, Daniel; Browman, Howard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Anguillid eels grow in freshwater but spawn in the open ocean. The cues that guide eels over long distances to the spawning area are unknown. The Earth's magnetic field can provide directional and positional information ...
