Large-scale ocean connectivity and planktonic body size

Large-scale ocean connectivity and planktonic body size

Body size is hypothesised to be a major determinant of β-diversity in passively-dispersing marine organisms. Here, Villarino et al. show that plankton body size determines rates of dispersal along marine currents, with shorter dispersal and higher species spatial turnover in larger organisms.
