The role of biological interactions in modifying the effects of climate change on intertidal assemblages [PDF]
, 2005 The geographic distribution of most species is expected to alter as a consequence of global climate change. Predictions for the extent of these range shifts are frequently based on anticipated changes in temperature using a 'climate envelope' approach,

Water motion modulates predator nonconsumptive limitation of prey recruitment
Ecosphere, 2016 Predator chemical cues can elicit behavioral changes in prey to minimize predation risk. Recent field studies have shown that such predator nonconsumptive effects (NCEs) can ultimately affect prey demography. The environment is known to modulate predator

Biofouling Community Structure in a Tropical Estuary of Goa on the West Coast of India
ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development, 2018 Biofouling community structure was studied in a tropical monsoon-influenced Mandovi estuary in Goa, west coast of India. Monthly, seasonal and yearly observations on biofouling on polyvinyl chloride (PVC) panels immersed at subsurface water level were ...
