Larval dispersal and marine population connectivity. (2009, background): “…of multiple interacting organisms in a complex environment necessitates incorporation of community processes (e.g., larval dispersal, recruitment, colonization, succession, competition, predation) into the increasingly complex population models (i.e., metacommunity models; Guichard et al. 2004).”
The ecology of rafting in the marine environment. III. Biogeographical and evolutionary consequences (2006, background): “Semisessile and mobile organisms such as gastropods, crustaceans and echinoderms, can also actively abandon rafts and reattach or crawl over to benthic substrata (Thiel & Gutow 2005b). It is during arrival that floating substrata exert a final selective influence on rafting organisms. Complex floati”
Larval dispersal reveals regional sources and sinks in the Great Barrier Reef (2006, background): “To understand such interactions between local and regional dynamics, we must analyse these metapopulations over multiple spatial scales (Guichard et al. 2004).”
Modeling population connectivity by ocean currents, a graph-theoretic approach for marine conservation (2007, background): “21 marine protected area network topology (spatial arrangement, spacing, upstream and downstream characteristics), complementing existing approaches to reserve design (Gaines et al. 2003; Gerber et al. 2003; Halpern and Warner 2003; Guichard et al. 2004).”
Matching Social and Ecological Systems in Complex Ocean Fisheries (2006, background): “The behavior of fish and other organisms, including fishermen, strongly reflects these place-specific abiotic regularities, and their interactions lead to the formation of a spatially structured metacommunity (Guichard et al 2004, Kritzer and Sale 2004).”
