Recent changes in abundance of intertidal barnacles in south-west England: a possible effect of climatic deterioration

Annual surveys carried out in south-west England since 1949 show that the arctic-boreal barnacle, Balanus balanoides , which was uncommon or rare in i960, has increased greatly in abundance during the colder years since then. Its numbers now approach those recorded in the 1930's, and there has...
