Effect of background substrate on recruitment of benthic marine invertebrates to subtidal cobble-filled collectors
TL;DR: The idea that larvae of some species of marine invertebrates respond to substrate at a larger spatial scale than their immediate location of settlement is supported, which supports the idea that species that are known to be rock-dwelling recruit in greater abundance to cobble-filled collectors at rocky sites.

Spatial redistribution of Ditrupa arietina (soft bottom Mediterranean epifauna) during a moderate swell event.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify the hydrodynamic mobility of a serpulid polychaete Ditrupa arietina under a moderate swell event in late winter 2006 with the two readings separated by a seven-week interval.
Journal ArticleDOI
A bedload transport equation for the Cerastoderma edule cockle
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of laboratory experiments carried out to analyze the bedload transport of this bivalve emulating the stormy shellfish bed conditions were presented, where flow velocities were measured using particle image velocimetry and the double averaged methodology was applied to determine the main flow characteristics over different cockle patches.

Characterization of the fouling community of macroinvertebrates on the scallop Nodipecten nodosus (Mollusca, Pectinidae) farmed in Santa Catarina, Brazil
TL;DR: The culture of marine molluscs became an important source of income for communities living along the coast of Santa Catarina in the last ten years, according to a study by the University of Sao Paulo.
