Tidal flushing and wind driven circulation of the Ahe atoll lagoon (Tuamotu archipelago, French Polynesia) from in situ ...
Hydrodynamic functioning and water circulation of the semi-closed deep lagoon of Ahe atoll (Tuamotu Archipelago, French Polynesia) were investigated using 1 year of field data and a 3D hydrodynamical model. Tidal amplitude averaged less than 30 cm, but tide generated very strong currents (2 m s-1) in the pass, creating a jet-like circulation that p...
Pearl oysters Pinctada Margaritifera grazing on natural plankton in Ahe atoll lagoon (Tuamotu archipelago, French Polyne...
In atoll lagoons of French Polynesia, growth and reproduction of pearl oysters are mainly driven by plankton concentration. However, the actual diet of black-lip pearl oysters Pinctada margaritifera in these lagoons is poorly known. To fill this gap, we used the flow through chamber method to measure clearance rates of P. margaritifera in Ahe atoll...
Bivalve larvae transport and connectivity within the Ahe atoll lagoon (Tuamotu archipelago), with application to pearl o...
Patterns of bivalve larvae dispersal in the deep Ahe atoll lagoon was studied by using a numerical 3D transport model (MARS3D) coupled with a vertical swimming sub-model, forced mainly by tide and wind-induced currents. The simulations were validated against observations of larval dispersal monitored several days throughout the lagoon. Connectivity...
