  abstract = {{T}he {C}anary {U}pwelling {S}ystem ({CUS}), a major eastern boundary upwelling system, sustains large crossborder fisheries of small pelagic fish, which poses the question of stock connectivity. {S}tudies suggest that ichthyoplankton transport from the northwest {A}frican coast to the {C}anary {I}slands ({CI}) is facilitated by coastal- upwelling associated filaments. {H}ere we analyze connections between larval supply to the {CI} and sardine and anchovy populations that spawn over the continental shelf. {F}or both species, ichthyoplankton observations (1) at the shelf and (2) near the island of {G}ran {C}anaria ({GC}) are used. {P}redictions of ichthyoplankton transport to {GC} are obtained from the {I}chthyop {L}agrangian transport model, which is forced by a high-resolution hydrodynamic model ({ROMS}) that reproduces the regional circulation. {R}esults show that upwelling filaments play an important role in the transport of larvae to {GC}. {H}owever, (1) filaments are not the only mechanism, and (2) filament presence does not necessarily imply larval transport. {A}nchovy and sardine larval presence at {GC} appears to be independent of the respective adult spawning seasonality. {C}ombining of observed and modeled data does not succeed in reproducing the observed larval patterns at {GC}. {V}arious hypotheses are proposed to explain this discrepancy in larval transport to {GC}.},
