Journal ArticleDOI
A functional group approach to the structure of algal-dominated communities
TL;DR: In this article, a simple graphical model was proposed to predict algal community composition based on mass-specific productivity and herbivore-induced disturbance potentials of the environment for benthic marine algal communities.

Disturbance and Recovery in Intertidal Pools: Maintenance of Mosaic Patterns
TL;DR: None of the tidepool assemblages is "stable" over many generations; rather, they seem to exist in a dynamic state where disturbances are an integral structuring factor.

Journal ArticleDOI
An "indirect commensalism" between marine herbivores and the importance of competitive hierarchies
TL;DR: It is shown that the type of competition between prey (i.e., hierarchical vs. symmetrical) strongly affects the nature of the interaction between consumers, and that in systems in which resource taxa compete, the abundance of a consumer specialized on one prey should be positively affected by the presence of a specialized consumer of the other prey.
