Leatherbacks swimming in silico: modeling and verifying their momentum and heat balance using computational fluid dynamics.
As global temperatures increase throughout the coming decades, species ranges will shift. New combinations of abiotic conditions will make predicting these range shifts difficult. Biophysical mechanistic niche modeling places bounds on an animal's niche through analyzing the animal's physi...
