Effect of algal phenology on seasonal dynamics of gammarid assemblages: differences between canopy and understory strata in a Sargassum yezoense bed

Macroalgal beds can be vertically differentiated into canopy and understory strata, and each can exhibit different phenology in algal biomass and morphology. Thus, for epibenthic invertebrates, macroalgal beds provide both vertically and seasonally heterogenous habitats, and epibenthic assemblages c...
