Journal ArticleDOI
The role of barnacles in the recruitment and subsequent survival of the brown alga, Fucus gardneri (Silva)
TL;DR: Despite the initial positive effects of barnacles on fucoid recruitment, germlings growing on barnacles have a high probability of dislodgement before reaching reproductive age.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rocky shores as tractable test systems for experimental ecology
TL;DR: The suitability of rocky shores as convenient test systems for ecological experimentation is outlined in this article, where the authors consider contributions from rocky shores to the emerging concepts of supply-side ecology, the roles of competition, predation and grazing, disturbance and succession and positive interactions in structuring communities along environmental gradients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental correlates of phenotypic variation: do variable tidal regimes influence morphology in intertidal seaweeds?
TL;DR: The role of tidal conditions, associated with emersion stress during low tide, in affecting the morphology of intertidal seaweeds is emphasized, and tidal regime was identified as the best predictor of morphological differences between regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Competition and facilitation between germlings of Ascophyllum nodosum and Fucus vesiculosus
Han Gil Choi,Trevor A. Norton +1 more
TL;DR: Whether interactions between germlings take the form of competition or facilitation depends on the environmental conditions, especially under desiccation stress on the shore.
Journal ArticleDOI
No outbreeding depression at a regional scale for a habitat-forming intertidal alga with limited dispersal
TL;DR: It was concluded that outbreeding depression is not detected in analyses of fertilisation success or early development processes in H. banksii and one of the following is likely to be likely.
