In the citing paper
“For example, Atlantic bluefin tuna spawning in the similarly warm Gulf of Mexico were observed to undertake extended 'cooling' dives to deeper waters in between short spawning events at the surface (Teo et al. 2007).”

In the citing paper
“Electronic tagging data showed that three mature Atlantic bluefin tuna (207–268 curved FL) remained on the spawning ground in the Gulf of Mexico for an average of 39 ± 11 days and were in an assumed spawning phase for an average of 18 ± 7 days [42].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
