A meta-analysis shows that seaweeds surpass plants, setting life-on-Earth’s limit for biomass packing
BACKGROUND: As plants, algae and some sessile invertebrates may grow in nearly monospecific assemblies, their collective biomass increases and if they compete hard enough some die, freeing up space. The concurrent increase in biomass and decrease in density is called self-thinning, and its trajector...
