Ecological restoration using intertidal foundation species: Considerations and potential for rockweed restoration

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Foundation species, such as trees, corals, grasses, oysters, and rockweeds, must be common and abundant to effectively modify the physical environment and increase biodiversity by buffering environmental stress. Yet many of these important species have been declining due to disease, climate change, and other factors.

On the ecology of Cystophora spp. forests

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, Volume 58, Issue 6, Page 760-772, December 2022., 2022
Cystophora is the second largest genus of fucoids worldwide and, like many other forest‐forming macroalgae, is increasingly threatened by a range of anthropogenic impacts including ocean warming. Yet, limited ecological information is available from the warm portion of their range (SW Western Australia), where severe range contractions are predicted to
