Kelp dynamics and environmental drivers in the southern Salish Sea, British Columbia, Canada
The impacts of local-scale temperatures and winds on bull kelp (Nereocystis luetkeana) vary along a coastal gradient, while also being influenced by corresponding global-scale oceanic conditions. Around Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands, BC, Canada, bull kelp floating canopies were mapped using...
