In order to study the effect of the nitrogen:silicon (N:Si) ratio on temperate microplankton food webs, mesocosm experiments were conducted in Trondheim (Norway) using two different ratios (molar ratios of 1:1 and 4:1). With the exception of diatoms,... Read More about Response of temperate microplankton communities to N:Si ratio perturbation.

The Sustainability of Whale-watching in Scotland (2003)
Journal Article
Woods-Ballard, A., Parsons, E., Velander, K., Hughes, A., Ladle, R., & Warburton, C. (2003). The Sustainability of Whale-watching in Scotland. Journal of Sustainable Tourism, 11(1), 40-55. https://doi.org/10.1080/09669580308667192

Scotland's tourism trade grosses £2.5 billion annually and supports 180,000 jobs; whale-watching is an important part of this activity. Whales and dolphins are the country's number one wildlife attraction and with 11,770 km of coastline the potential... Read More about The Sustainability of Whale-watching in Scotland.

Indicator taxa for the conservation of pond invertebrate diversity (2003)
Journal Article
Briers, R. A., & Biggs, J. (2003). Indicator taxa for the conservation of pond invertebrate diversity. Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, 13(4), 323-330. https://doi.org/10.1002/aqc.576

1.Ponds are a valuable resource for the conservation of freshwater biodiversity, but are often extremely numerous in a given area, making assessment of the conservation value of individual sites potentially time consuming.* 2.The use of indicator tax...

Can postlarval bivalves select sediment type during settlement? A field test with Macoma balthica (L.) and Cerastoderma edule (L.) (2003)
Journal Article
Huxham, M., & Richards, M. (2003). Can postlarval bivalves select sediment type during settlement? A field test with Macoma balthica (L.) and Cerastoderma edule (L.). Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 288(2), 279-293. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0022-0981%2803%2900023-6

Many soft-bottom benthic invertebrates display sediment-associated patterns of dispersion. Habitat selection experiments have shown that the larvae of some species can choose to settle in favourable habitats, and this process could establish patterns...

Calcium is an essential requirement for the successful growth and development of gastropod molluscs. Data for British freshwater gastropods were used to examine the relationship between environmental calcium requirements and British and European rang...
