From Worldwide distributions of tuna larvae: revisiting hypotheses on environmental requirements for spawning habitats (2014) · cites this paper as Schaefer 2001
In the citing paper
“Our results showed that tuna larvae occur within the adults' distributional range, but were restricted to lower latitudes and higher water temperatures than adults, largely consistent with Schaefer's 'temperature hypothesis'.”
From Worldwide distributions of tuna larvae: revisiting hypotheses on environmental requirements for spawning habitats (2014) · cites this paper as Schaefer 2001
In the citing paper
“There is very limited scientific information on the spatio-temporal spawning patterns of tuna species (Schaefer 2001) and strong uncertainties in our knowledge of many biological parameters, including reproduction, of tuna species.”
From Worldwide distributions of tuna larvae: revisiting hypotheses on environmental requirements for spawning habitats (2014) · cites this paper as Schaefer 2001
In the citing paper
“Schaefer (2001) hypothesized that tuna spawning is constrained by the larval development, which is very short compared with temperate species.”
From Evolutionary and ecological constraints of fish spawning habitats (2015) · cites this paper as Schaefer, 2001
In the citing paper
“in the Pacific Ocean the mean spawning interval has been determined as 1.18 , 1.53 and 1.09 days for skipjack, yellowfin and bigeye tuna respectively (Schaefer, 2001).”
From A review of the fisheries, life history and stock structure of tropical tuna (skipjack Katsuwonus pelamis, yellowfin Thunnus albacares and bigeye Thunnus obesus) in the Indian Ocean (2021) · cites this paper as Schaefer, 2001
In the citing paper
“It occurs in tropical and sub-tropical waters when the surface water temperature exceeds 24°C (Nishikawa and Kenkyūjo, 1985; Schaefer, 2001).”

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.
