Desperate larvae: influence of deferred costs and habitat requirements on habitat selection

C Elkin, DJ Marshall - Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2007 - int-res.com
As marine invertebrate larvae age, some accept a wider variety of settlement cues. A

Effects of artificial settlement plate materials and methods of deployment on the sessile epibenthic community development in a tropical environment

SN Field, D Glassom, J Bythell - Coral Reefs, 2007 - Springer
The choice of substrata and the methods of deployment in analyses of settlement in benthic
communities are often driven by the cost of materials and their local availability, and …
