Kite aerial photography for low-cost, ultra-high spatial resolution multi-spectral mapping of intertidal landscapes. [PDF]
Intertidal ecosystems have primarily been studied using field-based sampling; remote sensing offers the ability to collect data over large areas in a snapshot of time that could complement field-based sampling methods by extrapolating them into the wider

Trampling on rocky shores by an introduced capybara population in Anchieta Island State Park, Brazil
This study describes an unusual case of trampling on intertidal rocky shores by the largest rodent, the capybara, Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris (Linnaeus, 1766).

Community regulation: the relative importance of recruitment and predation intensity of an intertidal community dominant in a seascape context. [PDF]
Predicting the strength and context-dependency of species interactions across multiple scales is a core area in ecology. This is especially challenging in the marine environment, where populations of most predators and prey are generally open, because of

Morphologically similar but genetically distinct species have been termed cryptic and most have been assumed to be ecologically similar. However, if these species co-occur at a certain spatial scale, some niche differences at finer scales should be ...

Historical and recent processes shaping the geographic range of a rocky intertidal gastropod: phylogeography, ecology, and habitat availability [PDF]
Factors shaping the geographic range of a species can be identified when phylogeographic patterns are combined with data on contemporary and historical geographic distribution, range-wide abundance, habitat / food availability and through comparisons ...

Uniform persistence and almost periodic solutions of a nonautonomous patch occupancy model
In this paper, a nonlinear nonautonomous model in a rocky intertidal community is studied. The model is composed of two species in a rocky intertidal community and describes a patch occupancy with global dispersal of propagules and occupy each other by ...

Physiological and behavioral response of the Asian shore crab, Hemigrapsus sanguineus, to salinity: implications for estuarine distribution and invasion [PDF]
The invasive Asian shore crab, Hemigrapsus sanguineus, is ubiquitous in the rocky intertidal zone of the western North Atlantic. A likely contributor to this colonization is that H.

A biologically relevant rapid quantification of physical and biological stress profiles on rocky shores. [PDF]
Different combinations and intensities of physical (e.g. thermal) and biological (e.g.competition or predation) stress operate on organisms in different locations. Variation in these stresses can occur over small to medium spatial scales (cm to 10s m) in
