Sympatric divergence of Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis across the Pacific
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Eight surveys were done between May 10, 2011 and May 31,2011 to assess Sthenoteuthis oualaniensis populations. We found a high correlation between the numbers of squid observed per time unit and the neuston net zooplankton biomass. We also find high correlations between zooplankton biomass and sea surface temperature, and sea surface fluorescence. Squids are found near high areas of zooplankton biomass that is also confounded by factors such as temperature and chlorophyll‐a. Our results give some insight into where squid populations reside and how they speciate.
