Project: Testing the Invasion Process: Survival, Dispersal, Genetic Characterization and Attenuation of Marine Biota on the 2011 Japanese Tsunami Marine Debris Field. (JTMD-BF)

A major objective of the JTMD project was to characterize the biodiversity of the arriving and landed JTMD fauna and flora. This dataset includes length and reproductive development of Jassa spp. and Ptilohyale littoralis amphipods collected from the debris.
