Description
The study "Where and how - new insight for brown algal forest restoration in the Adriatic" analyses the reproductive traits of three populations of Gongalaria barbata algae from three donor sites in the northern Adriatic Sea and assesses the differences in their reproductive potential and success. The study suggests best practices for blue reforestation and strongly suggests herbivore regulation.
