Breccia as chaos

Moves in and out with winds/ swells

Wipes the slate clean

Boulder

 

 

On image left the Breccia +/- in --- cant see the Anemone in this image but is is about at ‘ground’ level – see later images where ‘hanging’ well above ‘ground’ level

 

The Gut area wiped clean then recolonized later in year

Better Example

Breccia clears of the substrate of most life – thus good to follow how when why where recolonized

 

Most everything is coming out of the plankton – thus limited ‘window’ for settling --- interesting to follow and see if any patterns emerge

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I will come back to this later in year – when these areas have new life on them

Compare as images above -- before and after images
