Abstract

In the northern Adriatic Sea a general rarefraction and withdrawal of dense settlements of fucoid algae characteristic for shallow hard bottoms and well illuminated habitats in the past decennia have been traditionally explained to direct pollution effects and advanced eutrophycation phenomena in the area. A recent recolonisation of fucoid settlements suggests that a long-term natural fluctuation of marine vegetation has been caused prior to a direct human impact.
