“…Species that migrate from coastal areas often transport large amounts of energy and nutrients to deeper waters where predatory species feed on the migrants (Deegan, ; Möller, Pihl & Rosenberg, ). Since it is increasingly recognised that resident piscivores, such as turbot Scophthalmus maximus (L.), pikeperch Sander lucioperca (L.), perch Perca fluviatilis L. and cod Gadus morhua L. , feed on the round goby (Almqvist, Strandmark & Appelberg, ; Alstrup, Jensen, Christoffersen & Svendsen, ; Hempel, Neukamm & Thiel, ; Kornis et al., ; Oesterwind et al., ), it is likely that the seasonal migration performed by the round goby may provide a vector for food resources away from the coastal zone.…”
