Competition for Food between Two Intertidal Starfish Species and its Effect on Body Size and Feeding

Two predaceous intertidal starfish that overlap broadly with respect to food, space, and time were found to compete for a limited food supply in the San Juan Islands, Washington...

Benthic faunal energy flow and biological interaction in some shallow marine soft bottom habitats

Infauna, including macrofauna and temporary meiofauna, and mobile epibenthic fauna have been quantitatively investigated in more than 15 shallow (0 to 1.5 m) soft bottom areas f...

Understanding the Effects of Marine Biodiversity on Communities and Ecosystems

There is growing interest in the effects of changing marine biodiversity on a variety of community properties and ecosystem processes such as nutrient use and cycling, productiv...

Apparent Competition or Apparent Mutualism? Shared Predation When Populations Cycle

We use simple mathematical models to explore the indirect interactions between two prey species that share a predator when all three species undergo population cycles. The resul...
