Estimating dispersal distance in the deep sea: challenges and applications to marine reserves
Population connectivity refers to the exchange of individuals among populations: it affects
gene flow, regulates population size and function, and mitigates recovery from natural or …

[HTML][HTML] Integrated observations of global surface winds, currents, and waves: requirements and challenges for the next decade
Ocean surface winds, currents, and waves play a crucial role in exchanges of momentum,
energy, heat, freshwater, gases, and other tracers between the ocean, atmosphere, and ice …

Modeling environmental DNA transport in the coastal ocean using Lagrangian particle tracking
A number of studies have illustrated the utility of environmental DNA (eDNA) for detecting
marine vertebrates. However, little is known about the fate and transport of eDNA in the …

Wrong-way migrations of benthic species driven by ocean warming and larval transport
Ocean warming has predictably driven some marine species to migrate polewards or to
deeper water, matching rates of environmental temperature change (climate velocity) to …

Behavioral adaptations in larvae of brachyuran crabs: a review
CE Epifanio, JH Cohen - Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and …, 2016 - Elsevier
Larval development in brachyuran crabs includes a number of zoeal stages followed by a
single megalopal stage. Zoeae and megalopae are relatively strong swimmers, and …

Ocean sprawl facilitates dispersal and connectivity of protected species
Highly connected networks generally improve resilience in complex systems. We present a
novel application of this paradigm and investigated the potential for anthropogenic …

Connectivity, dispersal, and recruitment
The life cycle of most benthic marine species includes a planktonic larval stage. Movement,
largely by ocean currents, and survival during this stage drive patterns of variability and long …

Seascape drivers of Macrocystis pyrifera population genetic structure in the northeast Pacific
At small spatial and temporal scales, genetic differentiation is largely controlled by
constraints on gene flow, while genetic diversity across a species' distribution is shaped on …
