Here we present results of in situ measurements of the speed of Peruvian anchovy schools, a small pelagic species that sustain the world's largest mono-specific fishery. Instantaneous school speed was in average 0.6 ms(-1), authorizing theoretical maximum displacements of similar to 26 km day(-1). specialized Peruvian anchovy School speed Multibeam sonar PEROU 040 149 92-94 2014 0165-7836 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010061383 10.1016/j.fishres.2013.09.002 0165-7836 [F B010061383] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010061383 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/intranet/publi/2014/01/010061383.pdf Accès réservé (Intranet de l'IRD) IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2014-02-05 2017-08-23 fdi:010061383 fre
