Reef manta rays forage on tidally driven, high density zooplankton patches in Hanifaru Bay, Maldives
Manta rays forage for zooplankton in tropical and subtropical marine environments, which are generally nutrient-poor. Feeding often occurs at predictable locations where these large, mobile cartilaginous fishes congregate to exploit ephemeral productivity hotspots. Investigating the zooplankton dyna...
