Fish movement drives spatial and temporal patterns of nutrient provisioning on coral reef patches

Abstract Nutrient provisioning by animals can be a major driver of primary productivity in ecosystems. Animal‐mediated nutrient sources are particularly important in nutrient‐poor systems such as coral reefs. However, aggregations of mobile animals might lead to temporal and spatial variability in l...
