 | | The objectives of the trip are to start a tagging program to evaluate bonefish movements, mortality, and recruitment and conduct a study to compare growth rates of Grand Bahama bonefish to Florida bonefish. |
 | | It combines an overview of the world tarpon and bonefish fisheries including their dynamics and status, a classical systematics approach to explore relationships between Elopomorpha genera, and modern molecular approaches to investigate intra- and inter-coastal differences in genetic structure throughout the oceans. |
 | | Chapters cover aspects of tarpon and bonefish life history, age and growth, behavior, physiology, genetics, reproduction and recruitment, movements and migrations, fishing and fishery exploitation, habitat-animal relationships, mariculture and stock enhancement, ecosystem management, and fishery management experiences from various areas of the world. |
