متن کاملUp, Down, and All Around: Scale-Dependent Spatial Variation in Rocky-Shore Communities of Fildes Peninsula, King George Island, Antarctica
Understanding the variation of biodiversity along environmental gradients and multiple spatial scales is relevant for theoretical and management purposes. Hereby, we analysed the spatial variability in diversity and structure of intertidal and subtidal macrobenthic Antarctic communities along vertical environmental stress gradients and across multiple horizontal spatial scales. Since biotic int...
متن کاملMesoscale Variation of Mechanisms Contributing to Stability in Rocky Shore Communities
Environmental fluctuations can generate asynchronous species' fluctuations and community stability, due to compensatory dynamics of species with different environmental tolerances. We tested this hypothesis in intertidal hard-bottom communities of north-central Chile, where a persistent upwelling centre maintains a mosaic in sea surface temperatures (SST) over 10s of kilometres along the shore....
متن کاملVariation in palaeo-shorelines explains contemporary population genetic patterns of rocky shore species.
Processes driving and maintaining disjunct genetic populations in marine systems are poorly understood, owing to a lack of evidence of hard barriers that could have shaped patterns of extant population structure. Here, we map two genetically divergent lineages of an obligate rocky shore fish, Clinus cottoides, and model sea-level change during the last 110 000 years to provide the first evidenc...
متن کاملspatial and temporal variability of macrobenthic communities in chalus shore of the caspian sea
the changes in density and biomass of macrobenthos were seasonally investigated from winter 2005 till fall 2006 in southern caspian sea. samples were taken with a 225cm2 van veen grab from depths of 7 and 20 meters along two transects: line 8 area (western part) and radio darya area (eastern part). totally, 5 classes of macrobenthos were identified of which the most abundant populations were po...
