Natural mega disturbances drive spatial and temporal changes in diversity and genetic structure on the toadfish Aphos porosus

Abstract Natural disturbances can modify extinction-colonization dynamics, driving changes in the genetic diversity and structure of marine populations. Along Chilean coast (36°S, 73°W), a strong hypoxic-upwelling event in 2008, and a mega earthquake-tsunami in 2010 caused mass mortality within the...
