Temporal changes in the dispersal parameters of the body-size distributions (BSDs) of 37 Triassic–Jurassic bivalve taxa recorded in this study. A, Residual values of the log2 body size grouped by stratigraphic unit; each point represents one species, with each symbol indicating the locality from which it was sampled (St. Audrie's Bay; Larne, Northern Ireland; and Pinhay Bay). Log2 mean body size ± SE is indicated for each stratigraphic unit. Zero on the y-axis represents the grand mean estimated from all species. Dashed lines are 95% confidence intervals estimated by bootstrapping with replacement (9999 iterations). B, Mean coefficient of variation of body size for each stratigraphic unit (-●-). Thin lines are 95% confidence intervals estimated by the bootstrapping procedure. C, Minimum (Min.), mean (Mean: -●-), and maximum (Max.) size for each stratigraphic unit. D, Skewness of the BSDs for each stratigraphic unit. Positive values indicate a right skew with a long tail of the data to the right; negative values indicate a left skew to the data. Size kernel–density plots (pale gray) show changes in the BSD between each stratigraphic unit. Key to stratigraphic units as in Fig. 3.
