The transport and retention of sardine (Sardinops sagax) eggs on the west and south coasts of South Africa were investigated using a Lagrangrian, particle tracking, individual-based model (IBM), coupled with two 3-D hydrodynamic Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) model configurations of different...
