Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
Traditional classifications of developmental patterns of marine benthic invertebrates are based on combinations of embryological (direct or indirect development) and ecological (such as nutritional source or habitat) characteristics. Different schemes have been proposed for different reasons, relating to ecology, evolution and/or development. However, these classifications contain interconnected characters that do not efficiently discriminate between developmental patterns and, thus, do not fully apply to either ecological or embryological studies. An ecological multifactor classification based on three independent two-state characters (pelagic / benthic, free / protected, and feeding / non-feeding) is proposed. It discriminates between eight developmental patterns and can encompass any ecological pattern of development among marine benthic invertebrates. |
