Sunflower sea star predation on urchins can facilitate kelp forest recovery
Proceedings of the Royal Society B, 2023 The recent collapse of predatory sunflower sea stars (Pycnopodia helianthoides) owing to sea star wasting disease (SSWD) is hypothesized to have contributed to proliferation of sea urchin barrens and losses of kelp forests on the North American west ...

Carbon export is facilitated by sea urchins transforming kelp detritus [PDF]
Oecologia, 2019 With the increasing imperative for societies to act to curb climate change by increasing carbon stores and sinks, it has become critical to understand how organic carbon is produced, released, transformed, transported, and sequestered within and across ...
