Mitochondrial genes have been used extensively in population genetic and
phylogeographical analyses, in part due to a high rate of nucleotide substitution in animal …

This book presents an in-depth discussion of the biological and ecological geography of the
oceans. It synthesizes locally restricted studies of the ocean to generate a global geography …

We review current knowledge and understanding of the biology and ecology of the calanoid
copepod Calanus helgolandicus in European waters, as well as provide a collaborative …

This paper explores the notion that the theoretical basis for contemporary research
concerning the structure and function of marine pelagic ecosystems is self-limiting. While …

The tools of molecular genetics have enormous potential for clarifying the nature and age of
species boundaries in marine organisms. Below I summarize the genetic implications of …

The copepod Eurytemora affinis has a broad geographic range within the Northern
Hemisphere, inhabiting coastal regions of North America, Asia, and Europe. A phylogenetic …

This modern textbook of biological oceanography is aimed atstudents taking oceanography,
marine biology and marine sciencescourses. It covers recent developments such as the …

Few genetic data are currently available to assess patterns of population differentiation and
speciation in planktonic taxa that inhabit the open ocean. A phylogenetic study of the …

Morphological stasis has long been regarded as one of the most challenging problems in
evolutionary biology. This study focused on the copepod species complex, Eurytemora …

Global climate change is expected to modify the spatial distribution of marine organisms.
However, projections of future changes should be based on robust information on the …
