Includes bibliographical references (leaves 115-126). This thesis focuses on these raised concerns and attempts to refine the modelling approach used to test the WTH. This is achieved by investigating squid paralarval survival and their specific gravity using aquarium experiments together with an improved ocean model and IBM. The influence of temperature on yolk utilization was assessed through experimentation. Tank experiments found that yolk utilization rates in chokka squid paralarvae are directly affected by temperature with faster rates at high temperature and slower rates at low temperature. 2015-01-05T07:07:01Z 2015-01-05T07:07:01Z 2009 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11400 eng application/pdf Department of Biological Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
