Sentence examples for oceanic connectivity from inspiring English sources

While the latter two variables are difficult to disentangle as they co-vary, the associations between genetic differentiation at locus Her14 with temperature and salinity were not caused by isolation by distance or oceanic connectivity, implying that the temperature and salinity correlations can not be explained by a demographic effect.

These features of red king crab population structure appear to reflect contemporary patterns of connectivity influenced by oceanic processes that are superimposed on a Pleistocene history of isolations in refugia and postglacial colonizations.

The apparent high level of genetic connectivity within oceans for some species seems to contrast with inferences derived from studies employing conventional and satellite tags that suggest limited trans-equatorial or trans-oceanic movements.

In this study, we assessed the level of connectivity between mainland Africa and two oceanic island groups, the Bijagós archipelago in West Africa and the Comoros Islands in East Africa, to evaluate their suitability as trial sites for GMM release.

Sometimes oceanic currents can promote larval dispersal and enrich population connectivity [ 11– 11].

The increasing interest in using sensor networks in applications for underwater surveillance and oceanic studies underscores the importance of solving the coverage and connectivity issues in 3D wireless sensor networks (WSN).

Oceanic ecosystems have historically been considered relatively open, with high connectivity among populations [ 1].

In addition, genetic divergence was detected between the coastal and offshore zones that cannot be adequately explained by geographic distance, indicating that transport of larvae between these zones via large-scale oceanic currents is rare even over time frames that account for connectivity over multiple generations.

Connectivity levels among Brazilian reef fish fauna populations have attracted growing interest, mainly between mainland shores and oceanic islands.

Considering the evidence of gene flow restriction in marine organisms from oceanic islands in relation to the Brazilian coast [ 30– 32], we show a more detailed analysis of the genetic connectivity level of Brown chromis populations between these regions, using HVR1 mtDNA.
