Jane Lubchenco conducted two studies on how herbivory by periwinkle snails affected algae species
richness. This graph is for a study farther from shore on emergent substrata (emergent rocks) that
was subjected to frequent wave disturbance that removes some individuals of all species of algae.
The competitive strength of each algae species (green arrow), and the snails preference (inedible,
most, and least preferred) for each algae species, is shown above the graph.
With wave action and low snail density, the number of algae species is high (about 12 species).
