Regime Shifts, Resilience, and Biodiversity in Ecosystem Management (2004, background): “In addition to shading by filamentous algae (Berger et al. 2003), increased sedimentation caused by excessive phytoplankton production hinders recruitment and settlement of fucoids plants (Eriksson & Johansson 2003), which may lock the coastal subsystem into the undesired state.”
Effects of accumulations of sediments and drift algae on recruitment of sessile organisms associated with oyster reefs (2006, background): “Adverse effects of sedimentation have been documented on coral and rocky reef assemblages (e.g. Rogers, 1990; Fabricius and Wolanski, 1999; Airoldi, 2003; Eriksson and Johansson, 2003).”
Decreased depth distribution of Fucus vesiculosus (Phaeophyceae) in the Western Baltic: effects of light deficiency and epibionts on growth and photosynthesis (2008, unknown): “…predators (Kangas et al., 1982; Salemaa, 1987; Lehtinen et al., 1988; Vogt & Schramm, 1991; Schaffelke et al., 1995; Pedersen & Snoeijs, 2001; Eriksson & Johansson, 2003; Nilsson et al., 2004; Eriksson & Johansson, 2005), nutrient enrichment seems to be the major reason for this shift (Torn…”
Factors structuring Fucus communities at open and complex coastlines in the Baltic Sea (2004, background): “Substrate stability and wave action Both F. vesiculosus and F. serratus need to attach to a hard substrate free from sediment during recruitment (Paper I, (Berger et al. 2003, Eriksson & Johansson 2003).”
