There is a growing interest in urban ecology but it can be a difficult environment for wildlife due to a range of anthropogenic pressures. Allotments could be used to study this issue but they have been rather neglected in terms of academic research,...

The application of a functional group approach to algal-grazer interactions (2007)
Thesis
Marsham, S. (2007). The application of a functional group approach to algal-grazer interactions. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4219790

Algal morphology is considered to be influenced by physiological and environmental factors such as stress and disturbance; one key disturbance exerted on algae is grazing pressure from herbivores. The factors upon which herbivores base their food pre... Read More about The application of a functional group approach to algal-grazer interactions.
