Check out our preprint 🧪 on the origin & dispersal dynamics of a sailing ⛵ #siphonophore! We use #iNaturalist and particle tracking simulations to show that juvenile man o' war surface in the Gulf of Mexico & Straits of FL and disperse rapidly along the Gulf Stream 🌊 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
From surfacing to stranding: The origins and dispersal dynamics of a neustonic siphonophore
