a skipjack tuna; b yellowfin tuna; c albacore; d bigeye tuna; e frigate tuna; f striped marlin; g sauries; h Southern bluefin tuna; i Pacific bluefin tuna; j shortbill spearfish; k swordfish; l longfin escolar; m slender tuna; n blue marlin; and o sailfish. The bars represent the mean larval probability for 15 fish taxa across the northern (blue, above) and southern (orange, below) hemispheres. Points represent the overall global mean ± SD. Note that a taxon will be found in a different number of grid squares in each hemisphere, so the global mean will not generally be the average of the mean of the probabilities in each hemisphere. Sample sizes across taxa (n) per season are also reported.
