The settlement pattern, measured with fine mesh (3 mm) traps that captured flounder ≤8 d into the post-metamorphic age but excluded predators and prevented emigration, was spatially dynamic.
To determine whether spatial patterns of flounder settlement were dramatically altered by post-settlement processes, we compared settler supply (measured using traps) with juvenile distributions (measured using beam trawls, which do not prevent post-settlement mortality and emigration).
The index of settler supply explained 95% of the variation in juvenile abundance patterns in the Navesink River (p < 0.001) where larger juveniles >20 mm standard length were commonly trawled.
