Causes of decoupling between larval supply and settlement and consequences for understanding recruitment and population connectivity
Marine broadcast spawners have two-phase life cycles, with pelagic larvae and benthic
adults. Larval supply and settlement link these two phases and are crucial for the …

A biologist's guide to assessing ocean currents: a review
We review how ocean currents are measured (in both Eulerian and Lagrangian
frameworks), how they are inferred from satellite observations, and how they are simulated …

Differences in recovery between deep-sea hydrothermal vent and vent-proximate communities after a volcanic eruption
Deep-sea hydrothermal vents and the surrounding basalt seafloor are subject to major
natural disturbance events such as volcanic eruptions. In the near future, anthropogenic …
