Behaviour of sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis grazing fronts: food-mediated aggregation and density-dependent facilitation
(2007)
The occurrence of destructive grazing fronts is a common phenomenon in sea urchins, but
mechanisms governing front formation and dynamics remain poorly understood. We experimentally
examined the effect of kelp biomass ...
Modelling phase shifts in a rocky subtidal ecosystem

[URL:http://www.int-res.com/], 2008-03)
The rocky subtidal ecosystem of the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia is characterised by 2
community states, kelp beds and urchin barrens that alternate on a decadal time scale. While the
shift from barrens to a kelp bed ...
