RT Journal Article T1 Marked Variability in Distance-Decay Patterns Suggests Contrasting Dispersal Ability in Abyssal Taxa A1 Erik Simon-Lledó, A1 Baselga Fraga, Andrés A1 Gómez Rodríguez, Carola A1 Jones, Daniel O. B. AB We assess the role of spatial distance and depth difference in shaping beta diversity patterns across abyssal seascape regions. We measured the decrease of faunistic similarity across the northeast Pacific seafloor, to test whether species turnover rates differ between deep and shallow-abyssal biogeographical provinces and whether these patterns vary across functionally or taxonomically different biotic groups.
