It is not intended to be a statement of how we perceive the world to work, but rather what we see as the important features of marine larvae and life cycles that need explanation. The various chapters of this volume provide a range of perspectives on larval ecology, but share a sense of enthusiasm for the rich potential that the field holds for generating important new insights into the ecology of life in the oceans. |
