Abstract:
Herbivorie představuje na korálových útesech jeden z nejdůležitějších procesů pro utváření bentických společenstev řas. Bentické řasy soupeří s korály o osvětlený prostor a výsledek těchto konkurenčních vztahů určuje, která z těchto dvou skupin bude na útesu dominantní. Na “zdravých” korálových útesech dominují koráli a i když jsou řasy vždy přítomné, jejich výskyt není ve všech případech zcela zřejmý …moreAbstract:
Herbivory is an important process in the structuring of algal communities on coral reefs. Benthic algae compete with corals for sunlit space and the outcome of this competition determines which group dominates the reef. On “healthy” coral reefs algae is not very conspicuous and corals dominate the benthic community. However algae is much faster growing than corals and under certain circumstances can …more
