Two caging experiments were conducted on an intertidal mudflat to assess the impact of predation on two species of bivalves; Macoma balthica and Cerastoderma edule. The first caging experiment enclosed the shore crab, Carcinus maenas, carapace width... Read More about Predation: a causal mechanism for variability in intertidal bivalve populations.
