Effects of a nonnative habitat-forming species on mobile and sessile epifaunal communities
Native and exotic sessile invertebrates can act as habitat modifiers and influence the diversity and composition of associated epifaunal communities. Theory and empirical research predict that greater habitat structural complexity will generally result in higher abundance, richness, and diversity of epifaunal species. We evaluated the impact of a recently introduced, structurally complex bryozo...
متن کاملHierarchical faunal filters: an approach to assessing effects of habitat and nonnative species on native fishes
Understanding factors related to the occurrence of species across multiple spatial and temporal scales is critical to the conservation and management of native fishes, especially for those species at the edge of their natural distribution. We used the concept of hierarchical faunal filters to provide a framework for investigating the influence of habitat characteristics and nonnative piscivores...

15 صفحه اولRecruitment in epifaunal communities: an experimental test of the effects of species composition and age
A key prediction to emerge from community assembly models is that resistance to invasion increases as the community matures. Three epifaunal communities of differing age were developed upon artificial substrata in the Firth of Forth, Scotland, to examine whether community age influenced the rate of establishment of new recruits. Four repeat experiments assessed the numbers of species and indivi...
متن کاملthe effects of multiple intelligences (focus on musical, visual, and linguistic) and direct instruction on learning grammar: a case on iranian efl students at elementary level
1.0 overview it seems that grammar plays a crucial role in the area of second and foreign language learning and widely has been acknowledged in grammar research. in other words, teaching grammar is an issue which has attracted much attention to itself, and a lot of teachers argue about the existence of grammar in language teaching and learning. this issue will remind us a famous sentence f...
