The zonation on rocky shores has a multifactorial origin, including physical and chemical elements and several biological interactions. An example is the relationship between the biofilm and the barnacles, because the biofilm may have an influence in the barnacle settlement. The microorganisms' complex is dependent on environmental factors and may act in the cirripedia settlement in a pos…
In this ongoing Masters project, we are testing the hypothesis that the biofilm influences the zonation of sheltered rocky shores of the Brazilian South-East by reducing the occurrence of barnacles on the inferior midlittoral. We are also assessing the spatial extension of this zonation pattern, as well as barnacle mortality in this zone. These studies will permit to obtain baseline data …
