  • The structure and distribution of Fucacean associations in the Icelandic coastal area
    Munda, Ivka-Marija
    The structure, floristic composition, local and regional distribution of Fucacean associations in the Icelandic coastal area is described on the basis of field studies. Attention was paid to the ... stratification, floristic composition and biomass of the fucoid settlements, as well as their zonal position in dependence on the inclination and exposure of the eulittoral slopes. Within the fjords and in local estuaries the influence of the salinity factor was also observed. The regional distribution around Iceland is likely a function of the varying hydrographic conditions around the coast, causing pronounced floristic and vegetational discontinuities along boundary areas between different water biomass. The high-level fucoid Pelvetia canaliculata is limited to the South and Southwest of Iceland, and the low-level Fucus serratus only to some spots along the southern coast. Fucus vesiculosus, Ascophyllum nodosum and Fucus distichus (sensu Powell) exhibit an overall distributional pattern around the coast, while Fucus spiralis is more frequent and prolific in the South and Southwest than in the rest of the area.
