Recruitment of Ascophyllum nodosum: wave action as a source of mortality

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 1990
The brown alga Ascophyllum nodosum is a dominant rocky intertidal organism throughout much of the North Atlantic Ocean, yet its inability to colonize exposed or denuded shores is well recognized. Our experimental data show that wave action is a major source of mortality to recently settled zygotes.

Patterns of reproductive effort in the brown alga Ascophyllum nodosum [PDF]

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 1996
The pattern of allocation of reproductwe biomass in the brown alga Ascophyllum nodosum (L.) Le Jol, was investigated in 2 populations on the Swedish west coast. An analysis of the demography of A. nodosum in these stochastic environments suggested 2 speclfic hypotheses about the reproductive allocation.
