Influence of the oceanographic dynamic in size distribution of cephalopod paralarvae in the southern Mexican Pacific Ocean (rainy seasons 2007 and 2008)

The southern Mexican Pacific Ocean presents seasonal changes related to the rainy season and Tehuano winds, which generate mesoscale processes affecting biological productivity and marine biodiversity. Size distributions of squid paralarvae collected in this region during the rainy season (July 2007...
