Zooplankton are not fish: improving zooplankton realism in size-spectrum models mediates energy transfer in food webs
The evidence for an equal distribution of biomass from bacteria to whales has led to development of size-spectrum models that represent the dynamics of the marine ecosystem using size rather than species identity. Recent advances have improved the realism of the fish component of the size-spectrum,...
