An investigation of the vertical and horizontal distributions of micronekton, as influenced by
mesoscale eddies, the Madagascar shelf and shallow seamounts, was undertaken using …

Mauritius is reported to have the highest marine species endemism in the Western Indian
Ocean faunal Province but the status of these species has not been evaluated. To address …

Spatial distribution, community composition and trophic roles of micronekton (crustaceans,

Knowing the responses of high-latitude corals to thermal impacts will be critical to predicting
the possibility for range expansion of reefs provoked by climate change. We, therefore …

Assessing population connectivity is necessary to construct effective marine protected areas.
This connectivity depends, among other parameters, inherently on species dispersal …

Isolation by distance (IBD) is one of the main modes of differentiation in marine species,
above all in species presenting low dispersal capacities. This study reports the genetic …
