Sea surface temperatures of the Leeuwin Current in the Capes region of Western Australia: potential effects on the marine biota of shallow reefs

Sea surface temperatures of the Leeuwin Current in the Capes region of Western Australia: potential effects on the marine biota of shallow reefs

The Leeuwin and Capes Currents have been shown to influence marine assemblages along the Western Australian coast. In this study we examined potential relationships between the sea surface water temperature (SST), as a consequence of the Leeuwin and Capes Currents, and the distribution of fishes and...
