Is the grass really greener on the other side, 💚 or was it just transported there by a sea turtle? 🐢
A study by Tavares et al., investigated seagrass population connectivity across the Atlantic ocean through genetic analysis and biophysical modelling.
By analyzing GBIF-mediated occurrences of Halodule wrightii, it was found that long-range dispersal of this species was most likely due to active grazers rather than ocean currents. 🌱🌊
