Are all supernovae the same asks Miss Muxdroozol. Bob watches her as her earrings cast a tangled, golden reflection in the kelp forest. 

Miss Muxdroozol stares at the kelp forest. Does the heat of explosion create even heavier elements ... 

Rocky subtidal reefs support dense, diverse, and highly productive kelp forests that are constrained by Hght at high latitudes and by nutrients, warm temperature, and other macrophytes at low latitudes (for a review see Steneck et al., 2002). Within 40—60° latitude, kelp forests dominate rocky substratum dominance extends... 

Outside of major climactic events and away from geographic boundaries, however, N supply in kelp forests may be relatively less important in shaping community...

Singer and coworkers also found that the dispersed fraction was more toxic than the oil or dispersant alone [74-76]. This group tested the toxicity of Prudhoe Bay oil and Corexit 9527 to red abalone (Halliotis rufescens), a kelp forest mysid Holesimysis costata) and the topsmelt Atherinops affinis). The dispersed oil showed much higher toxicological responses in fact, no responses were noted with the WAF (water-accommodated fraction) itself. The toxicity of the dispersant and dis-...
