Ecklonia radiata is one of the most widespread kelps globally, dominating temperate reefs
throughout much of Australasia and southeastern Africa. Throughout much of its range, it is …

Reversing the decline of coastal marine ecosystems will rely extensively on ecological
restoration. This will in turn rely on ensuring adequate supply and survival of propagules …

Species distributions have shifted in response to global warming in all major ecosystems on
the Earth. Despite cogent evidence for these changes, the underlying mechanisms are …

The giant kelp Macrocystis is the world's largest benthic organism and most widely
distributed kelp taxon, serving as the foundation for diverse and energy-rich habitats that are …

Oceanic rafting is thought to play a fundamental role in assembling the biological
communities of isolated coastal ecosystems. Direct observations of this key ecological and …

The end of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) dramatically reshaped temperate ecosystems,
with many species moving poleward as temperatures rose and ice receded. Whereas …

Kelp forests are experiencing broad scale declines in abundance and shifts in latitudinal
ranges in many areas of the world due to numerous environmental stressors, especially …

We assessed the genetic structure of the giant kelp Macrocystis pyrifera across a broad
latitudinal range along the southeastern Pacific coast (SEP). Specifically we analyzed the …

Aim Twentieth century biogeographers developed intriguing hypotheses involving West
Wind Drift dispersal of Southern Hemisphere biota, but such models were largely …

Determining the extent to which coastal oceanographic processes facilitate connectivity of
marine organisms underpins our understanding of the ecology and evolution of marine …
