The movement of animals and materials among habitats can affect community structure. Subtidal rocky reefs are important in the productivity, food web, recruitment, and behavior of benthic animal communities and fish. We investigated how rocky reefs influence

Hypoxia/anoxia in coastal waters is a world wide problem which often results in mass mortality and defaunation of benthos. In this study, field experiments were carried out to examine recolonization and succession of macrobenthic infauna in defaunated

Adults of Aonides oxycephala, common inhabitants of shallow boreal waters in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, release gametes into the water where fertilization and lecithotrophic larval development occur. During spermiogenesis, the acrosomal vesicle
