- W2786013413 abstract "Abstract Benthic species from rocky intertidal systems are irregularly distributed along marine coastlines. Nearshore pelagic conditions often help to explain such variation, but most such studies have been done on eastern ocean boundary coasts. Through a large-scale mensurative study, we investigated possible benthic-pelagic coupling along the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia, a western ocean boundary coast. We studied the high intertidal zone of nine wave-exposed bedrock locations spanning 415 km of coastline from north to south. At each location in the spring, we measured the recruitment of barnacles and mussels, the two main filter-feeding invertebrates. Recruitment varied irregularly along the coast. Satellite data on coastal phytoplankton and particulate organic carbon (food for intertidal filter-feeders and their pelagic larvae) and in-situ data on seawater temperature explained, to varying degrees, the geographic structure of recruitment. In turn, the summer abundance of both filter-feeders was positively related to their spring recruitment. Ultimately, predator (dogwhelk) abundance was positively related to the recruitment and/or abundance of barnacles and mussels (the main prey of dogwhelks). These results are consistent with bottom-up forcing influencing intertidal community structure on this coast. Sea ice may also influence this predator–prey interaction. Drift ice leaving the Gulf of St. Lawrence in late winter disturbed the northern locations surveyed on the Atlantic coast, making barnacles (owing to their high spring recruitment) the only food source for dogwhelks at such places. Investigating the oceanographic drivers of pelagic food supply and seawater temperature should help to further understand how this large metacommunity is organized." @default.
