- Field guideHow kelp forests support animalsHoldfasts, stipes, blades, and floating canopies add surfaces and shelter from seafloor to sea surface. Grazers consume kelp and epiphytes, detritus feeds animals inside and beyond the forest, and fish and invertebrates use the structure as nursery, feeding, and refuge habitat. Predators can indirectly protect kelp by limiting grazers in some regions.
- Field guideHow animals detect magnetic fieldsExperiments support sensitivity to field direction, inclination, or intensity in multiple taxa; radical-pair chemistry, magnetic particles, and electromagnetic induction are leading mechanism classes, not one confirmed universal sensor.
