Research Questions

  • Do individual fishes of target species change shelf-estuarine habitat connectivity in response to cable routing?  
  • What is the residence time (mean and variation) of individual target fishes in the study area (construction and control area) before, during, and after construction? 
  • What is the area of core activity of individual target fishes in the study area before, during, and after construction?
