Amphipod crustacean size spectra: new insights in the relationship between size and oxygen

Oxygen availability limits the maximum potential size attainable in benthic gammaridean amphipods from the suborder to the generic level, while also influencing size within species. In this paper we investigate the effect of oxygen on 15 size spectra worldwide, established by compiling maximum lengt...
