Velella - Planktonic Vessels

Colonies of polyps transported by prevailing winds, velella drift at the surface of warm seas.

The Plankton Chronicles series is produced by Noé Sardet, Sharif Mirshak (Parafilms) and Christian Sardet (CNRS) as part of Tara Oceans Expedition and Oceanographic Observatory of Villefranche-sur-Mer (CNRS / UPMC). Fundings by CNRS (INSB / INEE) and by the IBISA program are acknowledged.
