Phytoplankton shading of marine benthic macrophytes: Implications for intertidal community structure

Creator:

Kavanaugh, Maria T.

Abstract:

Previous observations of light levels and phytoplankton abundances along the Oregon coast demonstrated that phytoplankton attenuated light sufficiently to potentially limit the growth of intertidal macrophytes and therefore structure local intertidal communities. Inspired by this observation, in spring 2004, I initiated a study to quantify the direct and indirect benthic...
