Alien species and other notable records from a rapid assessment survey of marinas on the south coast of England (2006, background): “…counterparts on nearby bedrock surfaces, including a proliferation of arborescent bryozoans, compound and solitary ascidians, and mussels (Butler & Connolly, 1996; Connell & Glasby, 1999; Glasby, 1999a; Glasby & Connell, 1999, 2001; Connell, 2000, 2001; Holloway & Connell, 2002; People, 2006).”
Epibiota on vertical and on horizontal surfaces on natural reefs and on artificial structures (2004, background): “These factors alone appear to be responsible for much of the di¡erences between these structures and natural rocky reefs e.g. shading (Glasby, 1999b); £oating (Holloway & Connell, 2002); isolation (Keough, 1984).”
Ascidians as models for studying invasion success (2015, background): “Many ecological factors including hydrodynamics (Holloway and Connell 2002), substrate condition (Shenkar et al.”
Community structure of stony and soft corals on vertical unplanned artificial reefs in Eilat (Red Sea): comparison to natural reefs (2004, background): “Although the physical characteristics of an AR, including size, complexity, texture, and relief have been long considered important for recruitment (Bohnsack and Sutherland 1985), its firmness and stability have only recently been addressed (Glasby 2001; Holloway and Connell 2002).”
Links between estuarine condition and spatial distributions of marine invaders (2009, background): “Research by Holloway & Connell (2002) found differences in assemblage development between stationary and moving structures; however, they compared moving plates that were either partially above the surface or submerged on the water line, and did not test effects at greater depths.”
