“…Sources of larvae transported from several locations in the western North Atlantic to Little Egg Inlet in southern New Jersey, USA (after Houde et al, 2022). Most recruits of marine fishes to this estuary originate from spawning in shelf and neritic coastal waters (a–f), often from sites close to the estuary (d–f).…”

“…Processes and cues supporting larval ingress into estuaries. Estuarine (auditory, visual, odour) and navigational (geomagnetic, solar, stellar, coastal features) cues used by offshore fish larvae to detect estuaries and to navigate towards them, prior to adopting active swimming for ingress (modified from Teodosio et al, 2016 by Houde et al, 2022)…”

“…In some situations, eggs and preflexion larvae may be advected away from an estuarine plume by longshore currents, causing displacement of larvae from the zone where tidal stream transport or other mechanisms could facilitate estuary entry (Figure 6). After the detection of estuarine plumes, active swimming by postflexion larvae may be utilised along with flood tides, bottom currents or wind forcing of surface waters to enter estuaries (Houde et al, 2022).…”

“…Longshore currents (u) in coastal waters may transport drifting larvae far from a ‘natal’ or proximate estuary such that they are unable to utilise selective tidal stream transport (STST) or other tidally‐mediated behaviours to ingress at the postflexion stage (from Houde et al, 2022, based on graphic developed by Eric Wolanski).…”

We review published research on the ingress of larvae and early juveniles of marine fishes into estuaries subjected to different tidal regimes and provide perspectives on the abilities and responses of these early‐life stages to the physico‐chemical, hydrodynamic and biological drivers that facilitate such ingress. We focus on documenting ingress and the mechanisms employed by early‐stage fishes from coastal waters to enter different types of microtidal and macrotidal estuaries but also include information on ingress into mesotidal systems. Spawning localities for estuary‐associated marine fishes are assessed with respect to ontogeny of larvae and their ability to ingress estuaries during the preflexion and postflexion stages. The processes and physico‐chemical cues employed by larvae and early juveniles to locate estuaries are reviewed, with olfactory cues being recognised as especially important. Particular emphasis is directed to vertical migratory behaviours and selective tidal stream transport (STST) employed by many larvae ingressing macrotidal estuaries, contrasting with mainly passive flood‐tide entry and active swimming modes typically used by larvae and early juveniles that enter microtidal estuaries and estuarine lakes and lagoon systems.
