Snover and Commito (1998) recently used fractal geometry to characterize the spatial pattern of Mytilus edulis in the soft-bottom mussel bed at Bob’s Cove, Maine.. They
As a result, this model can further test the presumed effect of other processes, such as the limited access to microalgae due to the production of mucus tracks by mud snails (Fig.
To test some of the predictions of the swash exclusion hypothesis, we compared burrowing rates of the three species in five sediment sizes in the laboratory, and
The gonads of the sea urchins collected from the intertidal site in Loch Glencoul, characterised by the mud substratum, and from the scallop lines in Loch Fyne, exhibited a lower
of different chemical (e.g. metal concentration in ingested sediment, and oxic / anoxic condition of sediment) and ecological conditions (presence of other food particles) on
The mean feeding speeds of five basking sharks between 4.0 and 6.5 m in length observed in the present study were 29–36% lower than the optimal filter-feeding speeds for fish of
Most publications on mysid feeding rates report the factors (usually food density) affecting the clearance rates for filter feeding (on phytoplankton) or predatory feeding (on
The lack of significant selection when feeding on the uncontaminated (Sippewissett Marsh and Schooner Creek) and moderately contaminated (Barnegat Bay) sediments was therefore due
