investigation of species diversity and dominant of decapoda in the intertidal zone of bushehr rocky shores
to study the population structure of decapods in the intertidal zone of bushehr rocky shores, some random sample collection from four rocky and rubble shores of bushehr were done using a 50×50 quadrates sampling unit, in four successive seasons from autumn 2009 to summer 2010. totally 8 speciesbelonging to 5 family of decapods were identified and counted. in the whole course of sample collectio...

متن کاملMosaic Patterns of Thermal Stress in the Rocky Intertidal Zone: Implications for Climate Change
We explicitly quantified spatial and temporal patterns in the body temperature of an ecologically important species of intertidal invertebrate, the musselMytilus californianus, along the majority of its latitudinal range from Washington to southern California, USA. Using long-term (five years), high-frequency temperature records recorded at multiple sites, we tested the hypothesis that local ‘‘...
متن کاملDo Alternate Stable Community States Exist in the Gulf of Maine Rocky Intertidal Zone?
It has recently been hypothesized that intertidal mussel beds and seaweed canopies in the Gulf of Maine are alternate community stable states or disturbance patch mosaics dominated by either seaweed or mussel communities. The community that occurs in a given site is proposed to be stochastic and dependent on the size of the original disturbance and subsequent recruit availability. Large disturb...
متن کاملMicrohabitats, thermal heterogeneity, and patterns of physiological stress in the rocky intertidal zone.
Thermal stress has been considered to be among the most important determinants of organismal distribution in the rocky intertidal zone. Yet our understanding of how body temperatures experienced under field conditions vary in space and time, and of how these temperatures translate into physiological performance, is still rudimentary. We continuously monitored temperatures at a site in central C...
