Is long-distance dispersal of talitrids (Amphipoda) in the North Atlantic feasible?
Three talitrid species were found on both northwestern and northeastern Atlantic coastal regions: Orchestia gammarellus , Platorchestia platensis and P. monodi . We used the predictive surface drifter model Adrift.org.au to determine the feasibility of long-distance dispersal in either direction acr...
