  • Laurs et al. (1984) found that nearly all albacore tuna catch in the California Current during a two-month period occurred along the offshore side of an upwelling-derived frontal boundary.

    “Laurs et al. (1984) found that nearly all albacore tuna ( Thunnus alalunga ) catch in the California Current during a two-month period occurred along the offshore side of an upwelling-derived frontal boundary; this region was characterized by low phytoplankton pigment concentration and temperatures colder than the nearby coastal waters of the Southern California Bight (18-20 ◦ C) but warmer than”
  • That region was characterized by low phytoplankton pigment concentration and temperatures colder than the nearby coastal waters of the Southern California Bight (18-20°C) but warmer than the upwelling zone (10-12°C).

  • Oceanic fronts and eddies frequently attract tunas and billfishes, likely because they can enhance and concentrate local productivity.

    “Similarly, oceanic fronts and eddies frequently attract tunas and billfishes (Sund et al. 1981, Laurs et al. 1984, Fiedler & Bernard 1987, Santos 1994), likely because they can enhance and concentrate local productivity (Wolanski & Hamner 1988, Oschlies & Garçon 1998).”

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.
