Spatial patterns of growth in the mussel, Mytilus californianus, across a major oceanographic and biogeographic boundary at Point Conception, California, USA (2007, background): “…among populations of interacting species may greatly alter the nature of community structure and dynamics (Bertness et al., 1991), and variable patterns of growth, have been shown to result from variation in upwelling (Menge et al., 1997a,b, 1999, 2003; Sanford and Menge, 2001; Phillips, 2005).”
Intertidal community structure and oceanographic patterns around Santa Cruz Island, CA, USA (2006, background): “A similar pattern has been observed in Oregon, where barnacles tend to grow faster under warm-water conditions (Sanford and Menge 2001).”
Growth rate, condition, and shell shape of Mytilus galloprovincialis: responses to wave exposure (2003, background): “…studies have recorded faster growth and better physiological condition of mussels and other intertidal filter-feeders in exposed compared to sheltered situations (Bertness et al. 1991, Robles & Robb 1993, Sanford et al. 1994, Dahlhoff & Menge 1996, Leichter & Witman 1997, Sanford & Menge 2001).”
