Abstract
Recent work on zooplankton spatial variability shows that the power spectrum of the wave-number variance is flatter than that for chlorophyll, as a consequence of greater fine structure in the herbivores. The relative slopes of the power spectra can result from white noise forcing of simple coupled phytoplankton-herbivore models with diffusion.Keywords
