Vertical Distribution of Zooplankton and Copepod Community Structure in the Straits of Malacca
Vertical distribution of zooplankton biomass and abundance, copepod taxonomic composition and species diversity were analyzed at eight stations during an oceanographic expedition along the Straits of Malacca. Samples were collected in vertical hauls (140 μm mesh using 45 cm diameter NORPAC net) from four depth strata. Zooplankton biomass was higher at 10-20 m depth in the central and southern p...
متن کاملInvading the Ideal Free Distribution
Recently, the ideal free dispersal strategy has been proven to be evolutionarily stable in the spatially discrete as well as continuous setting. That is, at equilibrium a species adopting the strategy is immune against invasion by any species carrying a different dispersal strategy, other conditions being held equal. In this paper, we consider a two-species competition model where one of the sp...
متن کاملHow internal waves influence the vertical distribution of zooplankton
1. We present data with a high spatio-temporal resolution from a 72-h field survey in Bautzen Reservoir (Saxony, Germany). The aims of this survey were to observe hydrophysical processes during a period of unstable stratification in spring and investigate the effect of wind-induced internal waves on the vertical distribution of zooplankton. 2. Wind velocities up to 10 m s 1 caused a strong down...
متن کاملMigration dynamics for the ideal free distribution.
This article verifies that the ideal free distribution (IFD) is evolutionarily stable, provided the payoff in each patch decreases with an increasing number of individuals. General frequency-dependent models of migratory dynamics that differ in the degree of animal omniscience are then developed. These models do not exclude migration at the IFD where balanced dispersal emerges. It is shown that...
متن کاملUnequal competitor ideal free distribution in ®sh?
Key predictions of unequal competitor ideal free distribution models were tested using a continuous input situation. Ten individually identi®able cichlid ®sh competed for food items at either end of their tank. Their distribution ®tted the predictions of the equal competitor, continuous input ideal free model almost perfectly. However, examination of individual intakes revealed signi®cant varia...
