RELATING SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF CHILEAN JACK MACKEREL EGGS AND ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS IN THE OCEANIC WATERS OFF CHILE

Chilean jack mackerel (Trachurus murphyi) is a highly migratory pelagic species that inhabits the Southern Pacific Ocean, constituting the most important fishery for Chile. This species exhibits an onshore migration during the summer related to coastal food availability, and an offshore migration to...
