Applying a lagrangian trajectory model to investigate and describe the distribution of drifting ecklonia maxima within the benguela upwelling system
Coppin, Ross Mark (University of the Western Cape, 2023)Macroalgal morphological variation is determined to a large extent by a combination of environmental factors, with wave exposure and temperature perhaps the main influences, as they are key environmental properties to which ... -
Ecklonia maxima kelp forests along a thermal gradient: community composition and recovery from disturbance
Coppin, Ross Mark (University of the Western Cape, 2017)Climate change will influence species distributions, survival and ecosystem functioning, mostly through changes in sea surface temperatures and storm disturbance. Species are expected to shift poleward in response to ocean ...
