Zooplankton and Offshore Wind: Drifters in a Sea of Uncertainty
This study addresses to what degree can we predict how the development of offshore wind (OSW) might alter the distribution of zooplankton, the major food source for migrating whales along…
Lagrangian coherent structures influence the spatial structure of marine food webs
Animals often need to search for food, especially in the ocean were food can be patchy and can move based on the ocean currents. This study related the base of…
