Abstract
A fully four-dimensional (3D x time) open source (BSD-3), object-oriented biophysical dispersal model was developed to simulate the movement of marine larvae over semi-continuous surfaces. The model is capable of handling massive numbers of simulated larvae, can accommodate diverse life history patterns and distributions of characteristics, and saves point-level information to a relational database management system. The model was used to study Australia's northwest marine region, with attention given to connectivity patterns among Australia's north-western Commonwealth Marine Reserves (CMRs). This work was supported by the Marine Biodiversity Hub through the Australian Government's National Environmental Research Program (NERP).
