A review of biophysical models of marine larval dispersal
Larval dispersal is arguably the most important but least understood demographic process
in the sea. The likelihood of a larva dispersing from its birthplace to successfully recruit in …

Spatial variability in the resistance and resilience of giant kelp in southern and Baja California to a multiyear heatwave
In 2014–2016 the west coast of North America experienced a marine heatwave that was
unprecedented in the historical record in terms of its duration and intensity. This event was …

[PDF][PDF] Consequences of intraspecific variation in seed dispersal for plant demography, communities, evolution and global change
As the single opportunity for plants to move, seed dispersal has an important impact on plant
fitness, species distributions and patterns of biodiversity. However, models that predict …
