Causes of decoupling between larval supply and settlement and consequences for understanding recruitment and population connectivity
Marine broadcast spawners have two-phase life cycles, with pelagic larvae and benthic
adults. Larval supply and settlement link these two phases and are crucial for the …

Analysis of behavioural rejection of micro-textured surfaces and implications for recruitment by the barnacle Balanus improvisus
KM Berntsson, PR Jonsson, M Lejhall… - Journal of Experimental …, 2000 - Elsevier
Experiments performed in the field and in the laboratory show that the barnacle, Balanus
improvisus, preferentially settles on smooth surfaces. Settlement and recruitment of B …

Marine reserves: parks, baselines, and fishery enhancement
Coastal zones are usually managed with two main objectives:(1) conservation/maintenance
of biodiversity and intrinsic ecosystem services and (2) maintenance of sustainable fisheries …

Impact of habitat edges on density and secondary production of seagrass-associated fauna
PAX Bologna, KL Heck - Estuaries, 2002 - Springer
Species richness and abundance of seagrass-associated fauna are often positively
correlated with seagrass biomass and structure complexity of the habitat. We found that …

Barnacle settlement: field experiments on the influence of larval supply, tidal level, biofilm quality and age on Balanus amphitrite cyprids
A set of 3 field experiments lasting 24 h was conducted during April 1998 at the Duke
University Marine Laboratory (Beaufort, North Carolina, USA) to:(1) assess the influence of …

The role of habitat complexity in community development is mediated by resource availability
Habitat complexity strongly affects the structure and dynamics of ecological communities,
with increased complexity often leading to greater species diversity and abundance …

Surf zone physical and morphological regime as determinants of temporal and spatial variation in larval recruitment
Larvae of intertidal species develop in the coastal ocean, and the last body of water they
must cross while migrating back to shore is the surf zone. We hypothesized that the surf …

The surf zone: a semi-permeable barrier to onshore recruitment of invertebrate larvae?
The supply of larvae to the shore is important for population replenishment and intertidal
community dynamics but its variability at most scales is not well understood. We tested the …
