Biomass, diversity and production of rocky shore macroalgae at two nutrient enrichment and wave action levels (2010, background): “Generally, marine littoral communities are structured by a combination of physical factors and biotic interactions (Little and Kitching 1996; Wernberg and Connell 2008), and they possess a high structural and functional resistance against excessive nutrient availability as long as the communities ar”
Impacts of climate change in a global hotspot for temperate marine biodiversity and ocean warming (2011, background): “…turf-forming algae form a natural component of the early post-disturbance successional stages of seaweed-dominated landscapes (Wernberg, 2006; Wernberg and Connell, 2008), yet under altered environmental conditions turfs can expand and inhibit the recruitment of kelp, potentially eroding…”
Biogenic habitat structure of seaweeds change along a latitudinal gradient in ocean temperature (2011, background): “, 2007) and ecological (e.g., herbivores and recruitment, Connell and Irving, 2008; Ling, 2008; Wernberg and Connell, 2008) properties can affect the distribution and abundance of habitat-forming organisms.”
