Observing larval transport processes affecting population connectivity: progress and challenges

G Gawarkiewicz, S Monismith, J Largier - Oceanography, 2007 - JSTOR
Population connectivity is inherently bio-physical: it is determined by physical transport and
dispersion, as well as biological processes such as timing of spawning, larval behavior, and …

The bottom boundary layer

JH Trowbridge, SJ Lentz - Annual review of marine science, 2018 - annualreviews.org
The oceanic bottom boundary layer extracts energy and momentum from the overlying flow,
mediates the fate of near-bottom substances, and generates bedforms that retard the flow …

Fine-scale planktonic habitat partitioning at a shelf-slope front revealed by a high-resolution imaging system

AT Greer, RK Cowen, CM Guigand, JA Hare - Journal of Marine Systems, 2015 - Elsevier
Ocean fronts represent productive regions of the ocean, but predator–prey interactions
within these features are poorly understood partially due to the coarse-scale and biases of …

Evidence of upwelling events at the northern P atagonian shelf break

D Valla, AR Piola - Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
