morphology

After careful evaluation of the extensive data, the results are now available: they provide detailed information on changes in the morphology and structure of the material, but also on chemical processes during discharge.

Indeed, a crab-like body shape, or morphology, has evolved numerous times independently throughout evolutionary history.

Perhaps they have similar distributions, genetics, or morphology -- we don't know yet, but this study is a key step to starting to understand this important evolutionary question.

MBARI's Continental Margin Processes Team, led by Senior Scientist Charlie Paull, investigates how the morphology of the continental margin -- where the continental shelf transitions to the abyssal plain -- is sculpted and changed over time.

Species also vary in how much they fight, and Green suspects there may be a correlation between behavior and morphology.
