Causal effects of population dynamics and environmental changes on spatial variability of marine fishes

Extracting causality from time series on natural populations is challenging. Here the authors apply empirical dynamical modeling to 25 years of fish survey data from North Sea fisheries to quantify causal effects of age structure, abundance, and environment on population spatial variability, finding...
