Combining field observations and modeling approaches to examine Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) early life ecology in the southeastern Bering Sea

► Examine spawning to nursery connectivity of Greenland halibut in the Bering Sea. ► Field surveys delineate spawning and nursery areas. ► Models resolve transport trajectories. ► Transport varies with depth and by spawning location. ► Climate variations modulate the degree of basin-shelf connectivity.
