The importance of progressive senescence in the biomass dynam of giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera)

Temporal variation in primary producer biomass has profound effects on the structure and function of the surrounding ecological community. The giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) exhibits strong intra-annual variation in biomass density, which is better explained by the demographic rates of fronds tha...
