The role of kelp species as biogenic habitat formers in coastal marine ecosystems (2017, background): “…and species (Kendrick et al., 2004; 733 Smale et al., 2010; Smale and Vance, 2015), extreme wave action can cause damage to kelps and 734 associated fauna, leading to high rates of mortality and widespread loss of habitat (Filbee-Dexter 735 and Scheibling, 2012; Krumhansl and Scheibling, 2011a).”
Global patterns of kelp forest change over the past half-century (2016, background): “However, where kelp resilience is eroding and leading to declines in abundance (7, 18, 54, 64, 66, 67), impacts to ecosystem health and services can be far-reaching (19, 25, 26, 68, 69).”
Hurricane-mediated defoliation of kelp beds and pulsed delivery of kelp detritus to offshore sedimentary habitats (2012, background): “Particulate kelp detritus is continuously generated through the natural erosion of blades (Krumhansl & Scheibling 2011b) and the production of sea urchin feces (Sauchyn & Scheibling 2009a).”
Sea urchin barrens as alternative stable states of collapsed kelp ecosystems (2014, unknown): “The decrease in kelp cover during a shift to the barrens state reduces the supply of kelp detritus both to shallow kelp beds (Ebeling et al. 1985) and to adjacent habitats in deeper regions (Vanderklift & Ken - drick 2005, Krumhansl & Scheibling 2011).”
The rise of Laminaria ochroleuca in the Western English Channel (UK) and comparisons with its competitor and assemblage dominant Laminaria hyperborea (2015, background): “Although most kelp production enters the detri- 1040 Marine Ecology 36 (2015) 1033–1044 ª 2014 Blackwell Verlag GmbH tal food web (Krumhansl & Scheibling 2011, 2012; de Bettignies et al. 2013), some is directly consumed and differences in grazer preference and consumption rates of the different…”
