This is an interesting article (linked below) about #biodiversity and #populationdynamics of #microscopic #seafloorfauna elements, and their presumed modes of #dispersal and ability to adapt to far away #ecologically different conditions. It focuses on the nematode genus #Halalaimus.
I want to point out that even terrestrial nematodes are masters of interesting #dispersalstrategies, evolved based on their small sizes and limited distance #mobility.

With these new methods, we can estimate the wing area of thousands of bird specimens that already have wingspan information in research collections, including rare and extinct species, benefiting studies of #birdflight, #movementecology, and #dispersal.
