Lagrangian studies of Oceanic Processes: connectivity patterns, barriers to transport and marine populations
P.I.: Cristóbal López
The general objective of this proposal is the study of Lagrangian transport in the oceans with tools borrowed from nonlinear physics, and their influence on marine ecosystems.
