The invasion of Caulerpa cylindracea in the Mediterranean: the known, the unknown and the knowable

L Piazzi, D Balata, F Bulleri, P Gennaro, G Ceccherelli - Marine biology, 2016‏ - Springer
The spread of the green macroalga Caulerpa cylindracea is one of the most threatening
invasions in the Mediterranean Sea. Many correlative and experimental studies have …

Observations in ecology: you can't make progress on processes without understanding the patterns

AJ Underwood, MG Chapman, SD Connell - Journal of experimental …, 2000‏ - Elsevier
Coastal marine ecology is, quite properly, increasingly focussed on experimental tests of
hypotheses about processes. These are, however, done to explain observations and …

Spatial and temporal variation in benthic macrofauna and relationships with environmental variables in an estuarine, intertidal soft-sediment environment

T Ysebaert, PMJ Herman - Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2002‏ - int-res.com
We quantified the distribution, abundance, biomass and assemblage structure of benthic
macrofauna at different spatio-temporal scales in a temperate estuarine, intertidal soft …

Paucity of mobile species on constructed seawalls: effects of urbanization on biodiversity

MG Chapman - Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2003‏ - int-res.com
Intertidal seawalls are increasingly being built in urban estuaries, fragmenting and replacing
natural intertidal shores. Many species of animals and plants live on seawalls. Previous …

Spatial variation and effects of habitat on temperate reef fish assemblages in northeastern New Zealand

MJ Anderson, RB Millar - Journal of experimental marine biology and …, 2004‏ - Elsevier
Reef-associated fishes can respond to changes in habitat structure and the nature of their
response can change with different spatial scales of observation. A structured hierarchical …

Intertidal seawalls—new features of landscape in intertidal environments

MG Chapman, F Bulleri - Landscape and urban planning, 2003‏ - Elsevier
Artificial structures, such as pier pilings, floating pontoons, breakwaters and seawalls are
becoming common features of landscape in shallow coastal waters of urbanised areas, in …

Geographic variation of southeastern Pacific intertidal communities

BR Broitman, SA Navarrete, F Smith… - Marine ecology progress …, 2001‏ - int-res.com
We conducted field surveys of rocky intertidal communities at 18 sites distributed between

Patterns of distribution of marine assemblages from rocky shores: evidence of relevant scales of variation

S Fraschetti, A Terlizzi, L Benedetti-Cecchi - Marine Ecology Progress …, 2005‏ - int-res.com
Increasing evidence indicates that spatial and temporal patterns in ecological systems are
not independent of the scale of measurement. In this study we used a hierarchical sampling …
