Copepod life strategy and population viability in response to prey timing and temperature: Testing a new model across latitude, time, and the size spectrum

A new model (Coltrane: Copepod Life-history Traits and Adaptation to Novel Environments) describes environmental controls on copepod populations via 1) phenology and life history and 2) temperature and energy budgets in a unified framework. The model tracks a cohort of copepods spawned on a given da...
