Connectivity in aquatic systems allows for the delivery of resources to and from habitats and the exchange of genetic material (Brookes et al., 2015;Cury, 1994). For fish populations, connectivity includes dispersal or movement of individuals as eggs, larvae, juveniles or adults (Calò et al., 2013). Assessing the structure of fish populations is critical in understanding connectivity patterns, while also allowing for appropriately targeted management strategies for heavily fished species (Avigliano et al., 2017;Walters & Martell, 2004). Population structure and connectivity have previously been analysed using both artificially applied and naturally occurring tagging techniques for a range of fish species.Applied tagging methods (e.g. archival tags and acoustic telemetry) have been used to determine migratory patterns and assess space use (Calò et al., 2013;Hutson et al., 2007). Archival tags incorporate environmental sensors to record movement and oceanographic data over a given time (
