Fractal Distribution of an Oceanic Copepod Neocalanus cristatus in the Subarctic Pacific
Horizontal distribution of the copepod Neocalanus cristatus was shown to be fractal on the scale between tens of meters and over 100 km. The fractal dimensions ranged between 1.68–1.89, significantly higher than those of oceanic turbulence and phytoplankton distribution. 1.
