Connectivity matrix for loco (Concholepas concholepas) from Chile

Description

Sample connectivity matrix representing potential larval dispersal of loco (Concholepas concholepas) from Chile. The matrix is for 89 sites along the coast of Chile and is derived from a theoretical larval transport model.

Format

A square 89x89 matrix with real, positive elements.
