  • In agreement with other studies focused on the same region, AIS was one of the main drivers affecting larval advection.

    “In agreement with other studies focused on the same region, AIS was one the main drivers affecting larval advection [36,60,61].”

    From Environmental Conditions along Tuna Larval Dispersion: Insights on the Spawning Habitat and Impact on Their Development Stages (2022) · cites this paper as [60]

    The Discussion (p. 11) links offshore larval transport to a synergy between the AIS and upwelling, supporting a role for AIS in advection. It does not identify AIS as one of the main drivers of the transport studied here; the Discussion (p. 11) instead emphasizes wind-induced cross-shore transport. (LLM, conf=0.82)

  • The Atlantic Ionian Stream (AIS) was one of the main drivers affecting larval advection.

    “In agreement with other studies focused on the same region, AIS was one the main drivers affecting larval advection [36,60,61].”

    From Environmental Conditions along Tuna Larval Dispersion: Insights on the Spawning Habitat and Impact on Their Development Stages (2022) · cites this paper as [60]

    The Discussion (p. 11) links offshore larval transport in the northwest zone to a synergy between the AIS and upwelling, citing earlier studies. It does not identify the AIS alone as one of the main drivers of the transport analysed here; the Abstract (p. 1) and Discussion (p. 11) instead emphasize Mistral wind forcing and the resulting cold filament.

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.
