Effects of sea urchin disease on coastal marine ecosystems
CJ Feehan, RE Scheibling - Marine Biology, 2014 - Springer
Outbreaks of disease in herbivorous sea urchins have led to ecosystem phase shifts from
urchin barrens to kelp beds (forests) on temperate rocky reefs, and from coral to macroalgal …

The role of sea-urchins in marine forests from Azores, Webbnesia, and Cabo Verde: human pressures, climate-change effects and restoration opportunities
Marine forests ecosystems are typical of temperate rocky benthic areas. These systems are
formed by canopy-forming macroalgae (Laminariales, Tilopteridales, and Fucales) of high …
