Biophysical coupling between turbulence, veliger behavior, and larval supply
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
The goals of this thesis were to quantify the behavior of gastropod larvae (mud snails Ilyanassa obsoleta) in turbulence, and to investigate how that behavior affects larval supply in a turbulent coastal inlet. Gastropod ...
Adult demography and larval processes in coastal benthic populations : intertidal barnacles in Southern California and Baja California
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
The geographic distribution and dynamics of coastal benthic populations are shaped by physical - biological interactions affecting larval dispersal and the demography of juvenile and adult individuals. This thesis focused ...
