Ontogeny of critical swimming speed of wild-caught and laboratory-reared red drum Sciaenops ocellatus larvae

Critical swimming speed (Ucrit) provides a useful estimate of maximum swimming performance for fish larvae that can be used to assess transport and migratory potential. We measured Ucrit of red drum Sciaenops ocellatus larvae through its ontogeny and compared the swimming performance of laboratory-r...
