What is Understanding Meroplankton Dynamics about?

Plankton are small organisms that drift or float in the water and serve as an important food source in ocean ecosystems. Meroplankton are the larval or juvenile stages of organisms like fish, crabs, and snails that spend only part of their lifecycle as plankton before settling into their adult habitats. They are carried by ocean currents, helping to disperse populations. Plankton play critical roles in biogeochemical cycles as producers and consumers, and are a main driver of ocean carbon storage.
