We focus on the implications of movement, landscape variables, and spatial heterogeneity
for food web dynamics. Movements of nutrients, detritus, prey, and consumers among …

For historical reasons, knowledge about seasonality in the dynamics of marine benthic
suspension feeders from temperate areas comes mainly from studies of cold temperate …

Marine biogeographic realms have been inferred from small groups of species in particular
environments (eg, coastal, pelagic), without a global map of realms based on statistical …

This contribution proposes the meta‐ecosystem concept as a natural extension of the
metapopulation and metacommunity concepts. A meta‐ecosystem is defined as a set of …

In spite of being one of the most relevant components of the biosphere, the plankton-
benthos network is still poorly studied as such. This is partly due to the irregular occurrence …

This study provides a systematic account of the hydrozoan species collected up to now in
the Mediterranean Sea. All species are described, illustrated and information on morphology …

Intertidal Deposits: River Mouths, Tidal Flats, and Coastal Lagoons combines the authors
personal and professional experience with the mass of available literature to present a …

Recent theoretical studies have shown the potential for chaotic dynamics in simple three‐
species food chains. Most of these studies have focused on linear food chains, although …

The classical models of production and plankton community dynamics in coastal waters
include an important role for benthic‐pelagic coupling in the form of biogcochemical cycling …

The structure and organisation of aquatic communities, moulded in each environment by
combinations of abiotic factors, recruitment and productivity rates, rely upon a network of …
