Limpets only, size-sorted

Caption

Limpets (Patella spp.) arranged by size, from juveniles to adults. Our study uses a single maximum size per species rather than within-species distributions like this one, so projected changes reflect compositional shifts among species — smaller-bodied species gaining ground — rather than individuals shrinking.
