Journal ArticleDOI

Gonad development and fatty acid composition of Patella depressa Pennant (Gastropoda: Prosobranchia) populations with different patterns of spatial distribution, in exposed and sheltered sites

TL;DR: The results show that the spatial aggregation strategy adopted by limpets in sites of great wave and wind exposure does not affect their feeding and reproductive success, at least in the site examined here.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predicting the effects of marine climate change on the invertebrate prey of the birds of rocky shores

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors predict that the air temperature over most of the British Isles will increase by between 2 and 3 °C and sea-level will rise by 40-50 cm.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conflicting effects of woody debris on stream fish populations: implications for management

TL;DR: Coarse woody debris accumulation in streams is not beneficial to all species or ontogenic stages in a mixed species population and could severely limit essential habitat areas for some species, so physical manipulation of channels should be implemented only after a thorough study of the habitat relationships of all species present.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of the intertidal zone by mobile predators: influence of wave exposure, tidal phase and elevation on abundance and diet

TL;DR: The study indicates the importance of crabs as key intertidal predators and the strong trophic linkages between the subtidal and intert tidal zones, which is likely to be a key factor influencing community structure on European shores.
