A spine-cheek anemonefish (Premnas biaculeatus), or maroon clownfish, swims along a coral reef in Kimbe Bay, Papua New Guinea. As part of an international collaboration, WHOI biologist Simon Thorrold and researchers from Australia and France are tracking the dispersal of reef fish larvae among designated marine reserves in Kimbe Bay.(Photo by Simon Thorrold, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution)
