9614216 WITMAN This project is supported as a high risk, rapid response project to investigate the causes and consequences of a regional, massive recruitment of the blue mussel, Mytilus edulis, to the rocky shores off New England. This vast and unusual recruitment occured in the period around August -September 1995 from Maine to Massachusetts. This project will look at the fate of this population increase and its influences on the subtidal communities of plants and animals in the New England region. The spatial extent of the event, the changes in local cover over time and pilot experiments on its impact will be pursued. ***

9614216 WITMAN这个项目是作为一个高风险，快速反应项目，调查的原因和后果的区域，大规模招募的蓝色贻贝，紫贻贝，到岩石海岸关闭新英格兰。 这种大规模的不寻常的招募发生在1995年8月至9月期间，从缅因州到马萨诸塞州。 这个项目将着眼于这种人口增长的命运及其对新英格兰地区潮下带动植物群落的影响。 将继续研究这一事件的空间范围、当地植被随时间的变化以及关于其影响的试点实验。 ***
