Recruitment constraints in Singapore's fluted giant clam (Tridacna squamosa) population--a dispersal model approach.

Recruitment constraints on Singapore's dwindling fluted giant clam, Tridacna squamosa, population were studied by modelling fertilisation, larval transport, and settlement using real-time hydrodynamic forcing combined with knowledge of spawning characteristics, larval development, behaviour, an...
