Distribution and biomass of epiphytic seaweeds on the kelp Ecklonia maxima (Osbeck) Papenfuss, and the potential effects of two kelp-harvesting methods in the Western Cape
The demand for freshly harvested kelp, Ecklonia maxima, in the Western Cape, has greatly increased due to the need for fodder to supply the growing abalone industry. There is evidence suggesting that the present demand may exceed the amount of E. maxima available, if the traditional method of harves...
