摘要
A population of the tropical alga Caulerpa racemosa (Forsskal) J. Agardh has been studied along the Tuscan coasts (Italy). The cartography of a coastal area colonised by the alga has been undertaken. Growth and seasonal dynamics of C. racemosa population have been studied. The results have shown an important increase in the area colonised, from 177 m(2) to 1464 m(2) over one year. The species shows important seasonal dynamics, with the greatest growth in October and the lowest in April. (C) 1999 Adac/Editions scientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS.
