Description
Technological improvements have greatly increased the ability of marine scientists to collect and analyze data over large spatial scales,
and the resultant insights attainable from interpreting those data vastly increase understanding of poplation dynamics, evolution and
biogeography. Marine Metapopulations provides a synthesis of existing information and understanding, and frames the most important
future directions and issues.
Audience
Marine researchers, natural resource managers, marine and terrestrial ecologists, and graduate students
