Bio-physical interactions of small pelagic fish schools and zooplankton prey in the California Current System over multiple scales

Creator:

Populations of these fish are highly variable over time and are characterized by extreme fluctuations in abundance, which have significant ecosystem impacts. The causes driving this instability...
