• Maerl grounds provide both refuge and high growth potential for juvenile queen scallops (Aequipecten opercularis L.) (2004, unknown): “…few refuges (Gilliam, 1987); and (2) the considerable motility of juvenile queen scallops allowing them to use refuges in predator presence yet reattach to PLM surface in the absence of predators (Kamenos et al., 2004a) and thereby make use of the higher food supply in areas with increased flow.”
