Abstract
Sixteen Longhurst-Hardy Plankton Recorder tows were taken at different depths in the northwest Atlantic for analysis of fine-scale horizontal patchiness. Abundant species were non-randomly distributed in patches with scales of tens to hundreds of meters. Positive correlations between species abundances dominated, indicating that the patches were multi-species associations. Most horizontal pattern appeared to be of biological origin.
