Journal ArticleDOI
The interactive effects of adult canopy, germling density and grazing on germling survival of the rockweed Ascophyllum nodosum
TL;DR: The result suggests that grazers may affect the patterns of recruit distribution at later stages and the transition probabilities to macrorecruits in A. nodosum germlings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variation in recruitment and the establishment of alternative community states
TL;DR: For barnacles and mussels, recruitment varied enormously year to year and among sites, but showed consistent patterns over the long-term with respect to clearing size, and the cusp analysis indicated that fucoid recruitment defines the alternative states.
Journal ArticleDOI
The development of size structure in a young Fucus serratus population
TL;DR: Artificial discs were used to monitor the settlement and development of Fucus serratus propagules in five areas cleared of an adult canopy to test the assumptions that sizes of recently settled propagules are normally distributed but that over time plant sizes become more variable and hierarchical.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geographic variation in seaweed induced responses to herbivory
TL;DR: The North American population of A. nodosum displays considerable inter-population variability in its response to a single herbivore species, consistent with European work, suggesting that the differences observed were unrelated to recent history with grazers.
