A coalescent process with simultaneous multiple mergers for approximating the gene genealogies of many marine organisms.

Abstract excerpt

We describe a forward-time haploid reproduction model with a constant population size that includes life history characteristics common to many marine organisms. We develop coalescent approximations for sample gene genealogies under this model and use these to predict patterns of genetic variation. Depending on the behavior of the underlying parameters of the model, the approximations are coalescent processes...
