The intertidal zone of wave-swept rocky shores is among the most physically stressful habitats on the planet. At low tide, seaweeds are exposed to terrestrial conditions and must resist temperature and desiccation stresses. At high tide, crashing waves impose hydrodynamic forces that threaten to break or dislodge algae from the rocks. Despite this adversity, rocky shores support rich and morphologically diverse communities of macroalgae.

波浪冲刷的岩石海岸的潮间带是地球上最具物理压力的栖息地之一。 在低潮时，海藻暴露在陆地条件下，必须抵抗温度和干燥的压力。在涨潮时，汹涌的海浪施加水动力，威胁要打破或驱逐藻类从岩石。尽管如此，岩石海岸支持丰富和形态多样的大型藻类群落。
