Marine systems have provided little empirical or theoretical support for the equilibrium theory of island biogeography introduced by MacArthur and Wilson (1967; hereafter referred to as MacArthur-Wilson equilibria). In particular, although marine islands represent isolated habitats for shoreline-restricted marine organisms, it is clear that they do not

This chapter explores rocky and sandy shores. The biodiversity of the shore is exceptionally high compared to that of land, with all major taxonomic groups represented. Ecological research on shores has underpinned much of present-day marine ecology and has strongly influenced mainstream ecology.

Abstract This new edition offers a concise but comprehensive introduction to rocky shore ecology and has been completely revised and updated throughout. It describes the diverse biota (invertebrates, vertebrates, seaweeds, seagrasses and microalgae) that inhabit rocky shores, and the factors that determine their distributions, abundances

Rocky shores in the Moray Firth
Proceedings of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. Section B. Biological Sciences, 1986SynopsisAn intertidal rocky shore monitoring programme was established in 1981 as part of the Beatrice Environmental Programme covering thirty-four different locations in the Moray Firth between Duncansby Head and Fraserburgh. This paper describes the survey methods, the species found and the rocky shore communities encountered on these shores.

Rocky shores monitoring programme
Proceedings of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. Section B. Biological Sciences, 1995SynopsisRocky shores in Sullom Voe were first surveyed in 1976 and, apart from a break of two years (1982–83), have been surveyed annually since. The aim of the surveys is to monitor the health of the rocky shore communities by identifying any major changes in the abundance of the fauna and flora and distinguishing anthropogenic effects from natural ...

Zonation studies on a rocky shore
Journal of Biological Education, 1980The determination of zonation patterns by means of a transect line and quadrats, is a familiar exercise for rocky shore field work with sixth-form pupils. However, the results obtained may be less than perfect for a variety of reasons. Some of the ways in which pupils may be able to obtain more accurate and reproducible results in studies of this ...
