Abundances of surgeonfishes on patch-reefs in Caribbean Panamá : due to settlement, or post-settlement events?

Robertson, D. Ross (1988)
Adult and larval traits as determinants of geographic range size among tropical reef fishes

Luiz, Osmar J.; Allen, Andrew P.; Robertson, D. Ross; Floeter, Sergio R.; Kulbicki, Michel; Vigliola, Laurent; Becheler, Ronan; Madin, Joshua S. (2013)

Most marine organisms disperse via ocean currents as larvae, so it is often assumed that larval-stage duration is the primary determinant of geographic range size. However, empirical tests of this relationship have yielded ...

Aim To understand why and when areas of endemism (provinces) of the tropical Atlantic Ocean were formed, how they relate to each other, and what processes have contributed to faunal enrichment. Location Atlantic Ocean. ...

Mora, Camilo; Robertson, D. Ross (2005)
Changes in the coral reefs of San Blas, Caribbean Panama: 1983-1990

Shulman, Myra Joy; Robertson, D. Ross (1996)

Abstract: Between 1983-1990 large changes in abundances of corals and macroalgae occurred on shallow (1-5 m) lagoonal reefs in the San Blas Islands of Panama. In 1983 these reefs were dominated by the vertical plate forms ...
Comparative phylogeography of Atlantic reef fishes indicates both origin and accumulation of diversity in the Caribbean

Rocha, Luiz A.; Rocha, Claudia R.; Robertson, D. Ross; Bowen, Brian W. (2008)

Background: Two processes may contribute to the formation of global centers of biodiversity: elevated local speciation rates (the center of origin hypothesis), and greater accumulation of species formed elsewhere (the ...

Egg size in relation to fertilization dynamics in free-spawning tropical reef fishes

Robertson, D. Ross (1996)

In marine invertebrates that spawn by simply releasing their gametes into the water (free-spawning), fertilization success likely is often limited by low sperm concentrations, due to dispersion of mates and dispersal of ...
